(FOX 17) — Week two of the high school football season rolls in with many games taking place on Thursday, including our game of the week where defending OK Silver champion Belding (1-0) takes on Spring Lake (1-0).
The Black Knights knocked off Ionia in week one, 22-11 thanks to a stingy defense that forced three turnovers.
Spring Lake put 34 points on the board in a six-point, week one win at Montgaue, which included an interception return for a touchdown by senior linebacker Wren Dephouse.
These schools have not played in football since a division four, first-round playoff game in 2013, a game Belding won 21-20 at Grabinski Field.
Portage Central (1-0) meets Forest Hills Central (1-0) in the Blitz Battle, the Rangers won this game last year at McCamley-Knight Field.
Both teams feature really good defenses that each held week one opponents to single-digit point totals.
