GRAND BLANC — Hartland's high school football team was eliminated from postseason contention Friday after 28-6 loss to the host Bobcats.

While both teams matched-up rather evenly after the first half — with Grand Blanc leading 7-6 — the Bobcats over-powered the Eagles in the second half.

Hartland suffered two key injuries: in the second quarter, quarterback Stephen Milarch had to temporarily leave the game due to back spasms, while linemen Andrew Roy rolled his ankle in the fourth quarter and never returned to action.

Backup quarterback Spencer Wright scored Hartland's only touchdown on option keeper from a couple yards out.

Hartland, which is now 2-5 on the year, is on the road again next week (opponent yet to be determined) for a crossover game. Grand Blanc improved its record to 5-2.
