Walled Lake Western and Farmington stayed even through the first quarter, then Walled Lake pulled ahead, taking a 20-14 lead into the second half, The Oakland Press reports. The Falcons pulled ahead in the fourth quarter, but the Warriors scored late in the game for the win.

From parent and Falcons fan Bryce Berger: "The game kept fans on the edge of their seats as the two teams traded the lead throughout the night. Trailing by 3, Farmington's final drive was spoiled with less than a minute on the clock when they turned the ball over near the 50-yard line. On the ensuing possession, the Walled Lake Western quarterback took a knee to with just seconds remaining to end the game."
