FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) - Snider clinched its first SAC championship with a dominating 43-0 win over Bishop Dwenger on Friday night. The Panthers offensive line paved the way for another impressive performance from the ground game as Snider carried 39 times for 317 yards and five touchdowns from five different players. Je'norie Smith and Tyrell Swain each rushed for 92 yards and a score, with Swain ripping off a 78-yard scoring run in the second quarter. The Panthers close out the regular season with Wayne, while the Saints will face Bishop Luers.

North Side was a late arrival to the field at South Side, but it didn't deter the Redskins who rolled over the Archers by a final of 42-13. Quarterback C.J. Jackson accounted for four of North's scores, two through the air and two on the ground, including a 33-yard run just before halftime. Anthony Linnear got on the board in the third quarter with a 29-yard rushing touchdown.

Bishop Luers traveled to the Buckeye State for a second time this season - and once again the Knights returned empty handed. Luers fell to unbeaten Columbus Hartley 40-7, with the lone touchdown coming courtesy of Tyvel Jemison after the Knights were already in a 40-0 hole.

At Spuller Stadium, Northrop survived a big effort from Wayne, outlasting the Generals 33-31 in double overtime. Bruins quarterback Colin Brockhouse scored a two-point conversion on a short run in the second extra period to secure the win. Northrop will visit North Side next Friday with a chance to finish the season over .500 in SAC play.

Concordia stepped outside the conference only to fall to a strong Lakeland team 32-14 on the road. The Lakers took a commanding 26-7 lead into the fourth quarter and coasted to their eighth win of the season.
