8-man Roundup: Warriors rally past Blackhawks

At Seeley, the visiting Warriors (3-3, 3-4) trailed at the half but closed strong to secure their third win of the season, 32-12.

A snap mishap in the red zone derailed an early Arlee drive that had looked promising.

Warriors running back Colt Crawford erupted in the final period with a quartet of end zone scampers, rushing for more than 100 yards in the final frame alone.

Defensive back Micah Johnson pulled down a second-quarter interception for Arlee. Justice McLinden recovered a fumble in the first quarter, while Tommy Tanner scooped up a loose ball during the final frame against Seeley-Swan (2-5).

Arlee hosts Darby on Friday in a regular schedule finale.

No. 3 Bluehawks scuttle Vikings

At Thompson Falls on Thursday, Charlo (5-2) held the third-ranked Bluehawks (8-0) to their lowest tally of the season in a clash between Western C 8-man playoff contenders. Although the visiting Vikings couldn't shut down the Bluehawks’ power running attack, they did manage to bog it down.

The T-Falls defense returned the favor, keeping the Charlo offense on its own half of the field for most of the game.

The Vikings close out the regular schedule at home against Mission as they host the third round of the Crown of the Valley series.
