Bulldog Brock Hackett wraps up a West Branch runner with help from teammate Elias Hatt (12).

Hunter Meyer (53) and the offensive line helped pave the way for a combined 177 yards for MFL MarMac runners. That total was the most allowed by the Bears defense this season.

Wyatt Powell picked up 111 of MFL MarMac's rushing yards on 13 carries.
