Two dominant signal callers in Geno Seets and Wynn Diegel are getting ready to go toe-to-toe. The Mott Corsairs will take on the Dow Chargers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.
Mott was handed a heart-breaking two-point defeat in their last contest, but they sure didn't let that happen against Kettering on Saturday. The Corsairs claimed a resounding 45-8 victory over the Captains. The final result isn't all that surprising considering the Corsairs' considerable advantage in MaxPreps' Michigan football rankings (they are ranked 79th, while the Captains are ranked 378th).
Mott had a senior duo take command as Jordan White picked up 98 receiving yards and a pair of touchdowns and Kareem Jallow rushed for 31 yards and two TDs.
Wins are hard to come by when you can't run the rock, something Mott proved: they limited Kettering to a paltry 1.5 yards per carry. The Corsairs didn't have any issues in that department, having averaged 6.6.
Meanwhile, Dow waltzed into their matchup on Friday with five straight wins... but they left with six. They blew past the Chemics 34-7. Give some credit to the fans of both teams: the last six times they've met, the home team has come away the winner.
Mott better keep an eye on Garlands Randolph. He was instrumental in Dow's win, rushing for 107 yards and three scores, while also picking up 34 receiving yards. That's the most rushing yards Randolph has posted since back in September.
Dow's win bumped their record up to 8-1. As for Mott, their victory bumped their record up to 6-3.
