Robert Essie Game Report: @ Maple Grove

Opposing passers better start keeping an eye on Robert Essie: he recorded his first sack on Friday and we're guessing he's looking for more. He also made two total tackles (1.0 for loss) as Mounds View fell to Maple Grove 49-14. We hope Friday's matchup is the first of many we'll see posted here as the season progresses.

Looking ahead, Essie and Mounds View will host Stillwater at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Coming in off a loss to Shakopee in their last outing, the Ponies are looking for some redemption. Will the Mustangs have enough to fend them off? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other football content.
