FEATS OF THE WEEK: The postseason began in

Mauk for Kenton, Ohio, from 2008-11. ... Meanwhile, in Southern California’s
highly-competitive Pac-5 Division, regionally-ranked Corona, Calif., Centennial

and an 84-yard kickoff return for a touchdown. ... Senior Calvin Strong of
regionally-ranked Omaha, Neb., North became the first 11-man player in Nebraska
to surpass 7,000 career rushing yards. Strong (South Dakota) ran for 246 yards
and five touchdowns as North crushed Grand Island, 48-14, to reach the Class A
state championship game. ... Senior Deondre Farrier of Orlando, Fla., Lake Nona
broke his state’s single-season record for receptions. Farrier (uncommitted)
caught 14 passes in a 48-38 playoff loss to Lakeland, Fla., to end the year
with a record 112 receptions. Farrier’s quarterback, senior Tucker Israel
(Clemson), closed his career as Florida’s all-time and season record-holder for
passing yardage and touchdowns. ... Senior Mike Weber (Michigan) ran for 404
yards and five touchdowns as Detroit, Cass Tech topped Clinton Township, Mich.,
Chippewa Valley, 48-35, in a Division 1 state quarterfinal game.
