Summit, Mountain View, Culver football set for quarterfinals

With only eight teams remaining in the Class 5A football playoff field, No. 6 Summit is on the road to take on No. 3 West Albany for a spot in next week’s semifinals. The injury bug may have bitten the Storm at an inopportune time, but it hasn’t shaken the team’s confidence in making another deep playoff run. “We have battled a lot of adversity,” said Summit running back Casey Westerhoff. “And we like that. We want to go through challenges, and will step up every week and battle through that. It is hard with the injuries because we aren’t the best we can be. But we will work to be the best we can be with what we have.” “We know how to respond,” said Summit senior defensive back Trace Chenoweth. “When dudes go down, no matter who goes down, anyone can step up in any spot. Literally, everyone is tough and knows what they need to do.” Summit, along with Mountain View and 2A Culver, will look to keep their seasons alive in the state quarterfinals Friday night.
