Grandview's Daniel Davis (#11) and Jordan Lockhart (#49)The Grandview Eagles and Northview Hawks are the kings of the Catawba County middle school football world.
Last season the two Hickory High feeder schools rolled through their seasons undefeated and faced off in the All-American City Classic last October. The Hawks won a thriller and completed their season undefeated at 7-0. The Eagles, who had won the previous two Classics, settled for the runner-up spot and a 6-1 record.
This season both schools have picked up right where they left off last season. After yesterday's games the Hawks are 3-0 while the Eagles are 2-0. For more information on Hickory's middle school powerhouses, visit the middle school football page on TornadoPride.com.
Northview defeats Newton-Conover, 12-6
The Hawks went on the road for the first time this season and scored a crucial win over the Red Devils. Corey Stinson and Jalen Thompson scored for Northview to give the Hawks a 12-0. The Red Devils took advantage of a Hawk fumble to pull within a touchdown but a defensive stalemate ensued. Neither team was able to score in the second half. Coach Mike Mackie's team will face the Jacobs Fork Jaguars next Wednesday at Fred T. Foard's Tiger Stadium. The Hawks will look to increase their 10-game winning streak.
Grandview holds off Arndt, 12-6, in overtime
Coach Todd Teague's Eagles took on the Arndt Redskins at St. Stephens and came away with a hardfought overtime victory. The Eagles literally ate up the entire first quarter on their initial offensive possession. They eventually scored in the second quarter on a short run by Shaquille Smith. The Redskins managed to tie the score late in the game to send it into overtime. Grandview scored immediately and then held off the Redskin offense to clinch the win. The Eagles will be at home next Wednesday to host the Mill Creek Green Knights.
