Five things we learned in Week 5 of the high school football season.

1. It’s not over until it’s over. Yes, Yogi Berra said that a long, long time ago, but it holds true for everything. Just ask the Ford Falcons, who mounted a 70-yard drive in the final three minutes to stun Anchor Bay 21-20 and improve to 4-1 overall. Ford now needs just two more victories to earn a playoff berth.

2. Parkway Christian got a kick out of its latest victory. And the Eagles got a big kick from Aaron Mick, who boomed a 52-yard field goal – tied for the 16^th longest in MHSAA history – as they improved to 5-0.

3. Eisenhower can play offense. The Eagles, who have played stingy defense in winning three of their first four games, opened things up on offense in posting a 31-6 triumph over Warren-Mott. Ike had scored just 40 points in its previous four games.

4. Lutheran North has “manned up.” The Mustangs have not missed a beat after moving from the defunct Metro Conference into the Catholic League. Coach Gary Fasholz asked his team to “Man Up,” making it a slogan for the season, and Lutheran North responded. The Mustangs are 5-0 after beating Cranbrook.

5. There will be a “War in the Shores” next week. Lakeview (5-0) and South Lake (4-1) will battle for the mythical city championship of St. Clair Shores when the unbeaten Huskies host the surprising Cavaliers.
