MUSKEGON HEIGHTS–The Muskegon Heights football team hosted Riverview Gabriel Richard on Saturday afternoon in an East vs. West matchup.

It was a rainy day both weather-wise and football-wise for the Tigers in a 54-0 loss. 

The size of the Pioneers line would pose issues for the Tigers all game.

After one quarter, the Tigers were down 21-0 and unable to generate any sort of momentum. A fumble recovery in the second quarter gave the Heights some hope, but they fumbled the ball back to the Pioneers on the next play. 

At halftime, the Tigers trailed 41-0.

The Tigers were able to find some rushing success after the break, but could never string enough good plays together offensively to get on the scoreboard.

Gabriel Richard added two more touchdowns in the second half.

The Heights finished with minus-25 yards of total offense to Gabriel Richard’s 309. 

Muskegon Heights travels to White Cloud next Friday.
