WILLITS >> Zaedyn Suzor rushed for 122 yards on 14 carries with two touchdowns in Northshore’s 52-18 loss to Willits during Mendo-Lake Empire Junior Football League junior varsity action Saturday in Willits.
Dean Boehm rushed for 61 yards on five carries as Northshore fell to 2-4 on the season. Willits improved to 4-2.
Besides Suzor’s two rushing scores, Northshore picked up another six points on a Legend Sullivan 70-yard kickoff return.
“We knew Willits was a big team from the jamboree at the beginning of the season,” Northshore head coach Bradley Brackett said. “We came out strong with touchdowns on our first two drives o the game, but Willits had a great team and didn’t waiver. We didn’t help ourselves with turnovers in the second half, and Willits took advantage.”
Suzor also had a big game on defense with seven tackles and one sack, and Bobby Wenning also had seven tackles. Other leaders were Sullivan with six tackles and Boehm with four tackles.
Northshore hosts Middletown (5-1) this coming Saturday.
