If it's any consolation, Lansing Sexton beat Vicksburg tonight in the first round of the playoffs by a score of 48-0. (see the score and playoff bracket here on MLive).
In Week 5, Sexton beat Northwest 45-0.
Before tonight, Vicksburg was 6-3.
Overall, of Northwest's four opponents that made it to the playoffs, three won tonight.
In addition to Sexton, which competes in Division 4, here are the scores:
Mason 28, Fowlerville 3 (Division 3)
St. Johns 27, G.R. Forest Hills Eastern 24 (Division 3)
Williamston 58, Lansing Catholic 24 (Division 4)
Lansing Catholic had been 9-0 before tonight, including its season-opening win over Northwest.
Obviously, the Williamston Hornets were on a mission. The only game they lost this year during the regular season was against Lansing Catholic.
Williamston has a good shot at going all of the way. Last season, they lost to eventual state champs Marshall and they turned out to be the only team in the tournament to give Marshall much of a game.
The Hornets are an old Northwest foe, holding a 4-2 series edge over the Mounties. Given the strength of Williamston's program these days, I wouldn't encourage Northwest to add them back to the schedule any time soon.
