  1. Northridge had all 3 levels again. Freshmen did not practice or dress during our state run a couple years ago
  2. Good luck to the Panthers this weekend. I still think it should be my boys from Middlebury representing the North after all that went down the day before our 2nd matchup, but trying to put those feelings aside and realize that the majority of the team likely had nothing to do with the shady tactics that were used. Aside from a few "personalities" on Northwood, I know there are some great kids/families/coaches involved with Panther football. That being said, I'll be shocked if anyone in 4A or 5A could keep it close for more than a quarter or 2 with East Central this year. Go represent the NLC and prove me wrong. If I didn't have family commitments already, I'd be going back to cheer on our only local team playing this weekend like I did the last time they made it.
  3. Forever grateful for the culture Coach Wogomon instilled in Middlebury during his hc days at Northridge.
  4. I know I definitely don't, and I don't think many of us do. We get a bad rap too thanks to 1 or 2 people. My dad graduated from Wakarusa HS, I have a ton of friends with kids on or connected to the team. I felt like I had to vent and clear the air for our kids that made a bad decision back in July because I heard uninformed adults, making it sound like the two did this to their teammates the week of sectionals and I don't feel like they deserve that burden. Like I said in an earlier comment, 2 of the best programs in the area year after year. The last state finals you all made, I even made the drive to Lucas Oil and cheered them on.
  5. That's my fear, that someone's decision to be so petty might result in retaliation of equal or greater impact, unfortunately with social media it's a whole new world out there and things are permanent. Worst thing is that regardless of how I feel about what happened to the kids at my school is I'd hate to see it happen to someone else's kids, especially if scholarships are involved. I hope it wasn't a member of the team that was involved in this deal. I have friends involved with the Northwood football family and family from there, I'll guarantee they would feel just as upset as Middlebury was when it was discovered how this went down. I'd be willing to bet that admin for Wanee and some in the football program would agree with my take and it's not a tit for tat anyone wants to see. These kids are just that, kids. Now thanks to a few factors, they didn't get to play their last game of their senior year and the general public sadly assumes it was a black and white case of being stupid on their parts.
  6. So you were on the field and heard that being said? Didn't think so. But congrats on the win. I'm not blaming anyone but Northridge for the loss, they should've done better. However people need to see the tactics used and can form their own opinions on the matter. Not one time did you deny that the video was turned in 4+ months after someone from Northwood obtained it and held on to it to only release it on the Thursday before sectional championship. The picture posted was from a public social media page, and trust me, there are far worse where that came from.
  7. I'll be there as well. Wish we could see both teams at full strength, but the injury bug has bitten both teams this season. Either way I expect a good hard hitting NLC football game tonight from both sides.
  8. Goshen 24, Plymouth 21 Northridge 21, Concord 14 NorthWood 43, Mishawaka 42 (ot) Warsaw 22, Wawasee 15 Mishawaka, Northridge and Warsaw all 4-1 in NLC
  9. Per Chuck Freeby NLC scores Goshen 24, Plymouth 21 Northridge 21, Concord 14 NorthWood 43, Mishawaka 42 (ot) Warsaw 22, Wawasee 15 Mishawaka, Northridge and Warsaw all 4-1 in NLC
  10. Raiders played uninspired last night but squeaked out a win. 2 d1 starters and a host of other starters didn't dress nursing injuries but still gotta give credit to Wawasee for giving their best and almost shocking the area last night. 19 penalties, 12 against the visiting team last night as well as a double ejection on a punt that we couldn't see or hear what the cause was left a lot of confused coaches and fans. Gonna be a huge hole to fill without our leading tackler next week if he has to sit longer. Game of the week should be a good one, but we'll see which team shows up. Hoping we'll see Miller back soon, although Sherwood has filled in very nicely in his absence.
  11. https://www.facebook.com/groups/910199443496643/permalink/1022181832298403/?mibextid=Nif5oz On my Facebook group I shared some of the Nitro/JoJo highlights straight from their Instagram posts. Feel free to check them out.
  12. Last week was a very emotional week in Middlebury and we clearly had our heads elsewhere, that being said we didn't get it done and Mishawaka did what they needed to win. Hearing rumblings about us missing a key player for the next few weeks due to an injury. That being said, it's tough to defend the two Power 5 guys and their 5 yard screens that turn into 50yd touchdowns...
  13. We would like to invite all Northridge and Mishawaka fans to wear blue Friday night in honor of Eli Coryn our 17 year old junior Lacrosse player that lost his life after the Elkhart game this past weekend 😭
  14. Drone shots from Friday night between Northridge and Elkhart. Northridge won 35 to 29.
  15. I wouldn't sleep on Northridge this year, but for sure, Northwood is the favorite with 2 flashy names at WR. Leo and New Prairie are always tough too
