The North only passed five times on the day, but it didn’t need to air it out with Jordan Siebert (10 carries, 69 yards) and Kuffel (3 carries, 61 yards) also picking up big chunks on the ground.
Wisconsin Heights quarterback Tyler Flamme completed 7-of-13 passes with 139 yards and two total touchdowns for the South, including a 46-yard scoring toss to Abundant Life’s Justin Schmiesing in the second quarter. Schmiesing finished with 113 yards on six catches, while Wisconsin Heights’ Tylan Parman had a game-high 17 tackles (one for loss) and an interception.
The event raised more than $475,000 for the Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin.
NOTE: Northwood-Solon Springs opens the 2017 season at Siren at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 17. … The South won the large-school all-star game 10-0 over the North thanks in part to a 3-yard touchdown run by Brookfield East’s Sam Santiago-Lloyd. Future Wisconsin Badger kicker Collin Larsh also kicked a 21-yard field goal.
