Sandpoint
advanced to the state semifinals for the first times since 2005 by shutting
down a potent Middleton ground attack. The Vikings, which utilize the
double-wing, entered Friday’s game with a six-game winning streak and averaging
nearly 270 yards per game rushing. Sandpoint
(8-2) held Middleton (7-3) to just one first down and 14 yards in the first
half. “They
are coming off a six-game winning streak, and I think our kids made them look
like they were not a team on a six-game winning streak,” said Sandpoint coach
Mike Mitchell, whose team allowed the Vikings a total of 32 yards on the
ground. “That’s what it looked like tonight”/William Love, Sportslink. More here.
