?Lutheran Northwest drops League Opener to University Liggett


Lutheran Northwest was dealt a devastating blow losing to League opponent University Liggett in the opening weekend for league play. Big plays were the Achilles Heel for the Crusaders who appeared to be physically beating a very skilled University Liggett team. The Knights moved the ball effectively on the ground and in the air amassing almost 400 yards of total offense, while the Crusaders were able to only gain 350 yards of offense on the evening. The Crusaders were led by Senior QB Michael Justice who was 11 of 15 for 101 yards through the air followed closely by Junior Zack Alkire who was 8 of 11 for 69 yards passing. Alkire also registered 92 yards on 11 carries while Junior Danny Macks gained 84 yards on 14 carries, crossing the goal line 2 times for the Crusaders. Freshman Jake Justice led the receivers with 6 receptions for 63 yards, and 1 touchdown. Danny Macks had 14 tackles on the evening followed by Alkire with 12 tackles. Max Preps Congratulated #33 Jake Justice for being selected the Offensive Lutheran Northwest Football Player of the Game. The Crusaders will be looking for a win, next Saturday afternoon when they take on the Warriors of Lutheran Westland in the "War-Ader" bowl where they will once again battle for Rusty the traveling trophy.
