#CFC50 No. 37 CEC goes through to round 2 of playoff action with their win over Lockview, 42-6. From what we have learned CEC led 22-0 at the half and had a few great individual performances. Tyler Ball had two special team touchdowns and played lights out on defense. The CEC defense played a solid game as reflected in the score. On offense, QB Pettigrew threw for 107 yards along with one touchdown and Riley Gabriel and RB Matheson both hauled in 2 touchdowns apiece. CEC will go on to meet the Sir John A. MacDonald Flames on Saturday where they will have a much stronger team and will have their work cut out for them.

In division 2 action, Central Kings Gators defeated the Millwood Knights, 24-2. The Gators running game was called upon play after play. This seemed to be the winning formula and they did not sway from it. Defensively, they also played very good and adapted well to Millwood’s offense. Boasting of a very athletic, young team, the Gators should have a few years of reoccurring success with 23 returning players. Having gone undefeated all season, the Central Kings Gators have their sites set on the provincial Division 2 high school football championship, but will have to beat the Northeast Kings Education Centre (NKEC) Titans for that title. NKEC is a hard hitting team who has great coaching and will be ready to put it all out on the line. The Titans also won their semi-final game against Avon View 37-6. The two teams will battle it out for the championship on Nov. 13th at 1pm.
