Harlem clinches at least a share of the NIC-10 championship in victory over East
The Harlem Huskies have clinched at least a share of the NIC-10 championship. They improved their record to 8-0 Thursday night by defeating Rockford East 35-14 at Swanson Stadium.
The Harlem Huskies secured at least a share of the NIC-10 championship victory over Rockford East with a 35-14 win at Swanson Stadium. Key plays included a 50-yard touchdown pass by Jackson Cook and an 78-yard interception return touchdown by linebacker Kaleb Hart. Quarterback Braxton Fausett completed 13 of 17 passes for 216 yards, while running back Ladarrius Foster rushed for 77 yards and three touchdowns.
Running backs Cook and LeBron McClelland also contributed significantly, with Cook amassing 116 receiving yards and McClelland adding 88. Defensively, Noah Crandall and Jasavion Foy recorded notable plays with six tackles each. Should Harlem win their remaining regular season game next Friday against Boylan, they will claim the NIC-10 championship outright.
If they lose, Hononegah could tie the Huskies for the title if they win their remaining games and the Indians win both of their final two games.
