WEISER-Tradition rallies a championship for Fruitland Friday night as the Grizzlies went to Weiser and took care of businesss with a 28-7 win, stealing what looked to be a SRV title for the Wolverines as they were undefeated coming into the game. But that old saying rang true for Fruitland "Your the champs until someone knocks you off." and Weiser could not get that job done.
The opening half was tightly played with Fruitland capitolizing on a Weiser turnover and one play later punching the ball into the end zone for the lone score in the first half.
The Grizzlies scored 21 second half points, whlle Wieser could only muster one score as John Srholec reached into his bag of tricks and burned the Grizzlies for a 21 yard hook-and-latteral play.
With the win, Fruitland earns the No. 1 seed, Payette gets the No. 2 seed and Weiser ends up as the third seed.
