It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Bell had no problem doing just that on Friday. They blew past the Bronson Eagles, posting a 53-0 victory. The Bulldogs' offense stepped up their game for this one, as that was the most points they've scored all season.
This one was won in the trenches and the lion's share of the credit has to go to Kaleb Williams and he. Williams rushed for 90 yards and two touchdowns while he rushed for 90 yards and two touchdowns. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards. Aiden Houston was another key player, rushing for 53 yards and two touchdowns.
Houston was just one part of a punishing run game: Bell was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 308 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now rushed for at least 205 rushing yards in six consecutive games.
Bell didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off two passes before the game was over. In fact, those interceptions all came courtesy of defensive juggernaut Caelum Surrency.

Bell will challenge Interlachen at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Interlachen knows how to get points on the board -- the squad has finished with 31 points or more in their past three matchups -- so hopefully Bell likes a good challenge. Bronson does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
