Iron Mountain – In 19 years as the head coach of the Ishpeming Hematites, Jeff Olson had never won a game in Iron Mountain. There had been down to the wire match ups and the teams have competed, but not until this weekend had the Hematites went into their rival’s house and stole a victory in the tough Mid-Peninsula conference.

It came down to the wire, after trailing 14-0 after the first half. Ishpeming aired the ball out to the tune of 250 yards receiving by Gabe Eppert. Eppert was instrumental in the win, reeling in two touchdown passes.

The Hematites, who won the mid-pen conference last season, will look to continue their success this season as they open up their home schedule on Friday against Manistique. You can catch all the action on the only station that respects the rock. 98.3 WRUP has all the action starting at 7 PM ET with the pre-game show.

GWINN — The lights flashed down bright on McCormick Field in the Model Town for this first time in 2010 on Friday. In what has now become a regular acquaintance to open up the regular season, The Patriots of Westwood and the Model Towners of Gwinn opened up Mid Peninsula Conference play in strong fashion.

Scoreless after the first quarter, The Model Towners drove down the field in their second possesion, but were stopped on a pass deflection and interception by the Patriot defense.

Westwood would take over from mid field and score on that possession on a quarterback keeper from Zach French. French would scamper 30+ yards. The Patriots would then tag on 21 more points in the first half and not look back. It was a solid 35-0 win in the opener of conference play and the season.

The Patriots will host the Houghton Gremlins in their home opener on Thursday. Last season Westwood went undefeated at home en route to a playoff birth. You can catch all the action on Up Local Sports, or listen in on 103.3 The Country Extreme. Pre game is set for 7 PM ET

NORWAY — The Mustang football team traveled to Norway tonight for their season opener and, despite a loss, played an impressive game. The Mustangs first possession led to a 55 yard touchdown pass, marking their first score of the season. But, the Norway Knights proceeded to put together several impressive drives afterwords leading to 29 unanswered points. However, the Mustangs showed no signs of defeat, as they did very well putting the ball in the air throughout the night, and scored an additional two more touchdowns. And despite three injuries to an already small team, played a very impressive game against a team that went to the playoffs last year. The final score was 43-19.
