MUSKEGON — Muskegon County called Cody Kater home last week, as he accepted the head coaching job at Reeths-Puffer. Athletic director Cliff Sandee announced the hire last Friday.
After a one-season layover in Georgia, former Montague football star Cody Kater is returning to the White Lake area, this time as a head coach. Kater accepted the Reeths-Puffer head coaching job this week, R-P announced Friday morning.
As first reported by M7 Sports Wednesday, Reeths-Puffer football coach Matt Bird resigned after three seasons. Bird leaves the R-P coaching job with a 10-15 record in three seasons.
Another great football season in the White Lake area meant more postseason honors rolling in, including three all-state awards.
LANSING — Despite the exact start they wanted, the Montague Wildcats couldn’t keep their state title defense going last Saturday afternoon, falling to powerhouse Lansing Catholic in the regional finals 31-13.
MONTAGUE — It’s almost impossible to have two more different challenges than the Montague Wildcats faced last week and this week.
CADILLAC — It was a flag-filled Friday night at Cadillac in a battle for the district championship, and while Whitehall played tough for most of the game, it was never able to dig all the way out of an early hole, falling to the host Vikings 24-14.
REED CITY — A road game in hostile territory wasn’t enough to stop Montague football and senior quarterback Andrew Kooi.
Montague got some big plays from senior running back Dylan Everett and took a big lead by halftime to earn a 41-7 win over Central Montcalm in a pre-district game Friday night.
SPARTA — Whitehall’s offense was terrific as usual Friday night at Sparta, rolling up 500 total yards in a 40-20 pre-district victory that extended the Vikings’ season at least another week. (Whitehall will travel to Cadillac for the district finals next Friday at 7 p.m.)
