Eastside Orange 16, Blaze 7th Grade 0
In a battle of DCAYFL unbeatens, the seventh-grade Blaze (5-2) lost to Eastside Orange by a score of 16-0.
The Orange scored in the second quarter on a 33-yard run and the extra point was good for an 8-0 lead at the half.
In the third quarter, the Blaze had two possessions inside the Orange 25 yard line but failed to take advantage of the field position created by Orange turnovers and came away without any points.

For the Blaze, Rhett Katzenberger, Sean Saxby, and Riley Buol had five tackles, Alex Borowitz and Eric Finley recovered fumbles, Chase Hellenbrand had an interception, and Joe Dahmen was in on nine tackles with two deflected passes.

Monroe 6th-Grade Blaze
The 6th-Grade Blaze (2 -5) lost to Sun Prairie 22-0.
Monroe 5th-Grade Blaze 21, Verona 0
The Blaze fifth graders (7-0) traveled to Verona to take on the undefeated Verona orange team.
In very wet and muddy conditions the Blaze moved the ball well the whole game. Scores were added by Carter Sawdey on a 20-yard interception, then Tyler Elmer found Cole Murray for a 35-yard pass play, and the Blaze scoring was capped by a 10-yard Jake Kind run up the middle. The extra point kicks were added by Carter Sawdey and a run by Jake Kind.
The real story for the offense was the line who even with the muddy field conditions were able to control the line of scrimmage with efforts by Tim Thoman, Dylan Beaver, Cameron Fiez, Kyle Walter, Ethan Coplien, Kobe Manor and Nate Smith.
The defense also came to protect the season long shut-out of their opponents and delivered results holding Verona to 70 yards and five first downs.
The Blaze fifth-graders look to stay unbeaten and unscored upon and finish their season at home at 10 a.m. Saturday.
