SELive STAR OF WEEK 1: MALIK ZAIRE , Alter QB
Zaire led the Knights last year to a undefeated record last year - only to have it erased by the cinderella Thurgood Marshall team in the playoffs (first rd); Zaire, who's headed to Notre Dame, held off a tough Fairmont squad 42-35. He threw the ball 30 times - which for Alter is "amazing" as he put it - for 251 yards and 5 TD's and ran for 171 more with another TD.
SELIVE HOT 5 FOOTBALL WEEK 1 RESULTS
University (Fla) 33, Trotwood 14 (ESPN)
University showed why they are one of the elite teams in the country, jumping out to a 19-0 lead and holding on before a live audience. Trotwood scored, and was threatening late in the 3rd, but a INT return for a TD ended their hopes of a comeback; Trotwood had flashes of showing what they could become this season, but with inconsistent play, the bright lights of ESPN, and some new faces, it will take some time for this team to gel. Up NEXT: vs DUNBAR
CJ 21, Troy 14
C-J's Fab Frosh Jacob Harrison directed two TD drives in the last quarter to seal the deal against the Trojans. Although he didn't start, C-J coach Marcus Colvin called his number, and he delivered, (GW TD pass to Antwan Persons) to the chagrin of new Troy coach Scot Brewer.
Wayne 30, Winton Woods 20
Wayne won ugly on defense, and had a couple spectacular plays as they sprinted to a 20-13 lead led by Javon Harrison 2 TD's and Centerville transfer Devin Reed, who also threw a 80-yd TD to Jessie Bray to set the tone. The Warriors finally won their first game since 2009. The Warriors forced turnovers, blocked punts, and set the tone from the jump. Dorian Hendrix led the Warriors defense.
Dunbar 22, Valley View 21
Dunbar looked to be headed to the L column after getting a stuffed punt deep in their own territory with less than 2 minutes in the game (game tied 14-14); Valley View scored two plays later, and they took a 21-14 lead with less than a min left in the game. However, two silly penalties by the View, and Charles Johnson, who had his punt snuffed, would score to pull within 21-20; The Wolverines went for 2 and Dontay White dove over the line to give Dunbar the lead and the W.
