Both teams are coming off of lopsided shutout losses last week. Grosse Ile (1-1) was beaten by Huron 35-0 while Flat Rock (0-2) lost 42-0 to SMCC. Grosse Ile won last season’s game 42-7 and have the last five in the series.
Flat Rock was fortunate to get out of the SMCC game with no injuries and should be fully healthy on Friday. Dontel Hampton will once again lead the Ram offense while Eric Antolak leads the defense.
The big concern this week for GI is whether senior QB Andrew Mitroka will be available or not. If he doesn’t play the Red Devils will be led by sophomore Justin Moores. The defense will also led by a sophomore in defensive lineman Dominic Trombley.
This match up totally changes if Mitroka is out of the lineup. The Rams could keep it close if he is out, but I see a victory for the Red Devils either way. Prediction: Grosse Ile 34 Flat Rock 14
Why is that the game of the week?
Very Cool. The Huron league will be represented on channel 4.
Flat Rock V. GI is the channel 4 game of the week! Thanks to all Huron fans for voting.
Weird..they should play him against FR get the sure W, then rest him vs SMCC because THEY AREN'T BEATING SMCC
Mitroka isnt playing, hasnt practiced this week. They are resting him for CC.
If #5 for FR played on any other team in the HL, he would be all league and dominant.

If FR scores I'd be surprised.
If FR cuts down the penalities they will be ok, they're just undisciplined. GI needs to do the same and cut the Turnovers..could be a good game, but GI has too much and too many weapons. All the younger moores has to do is hand off
Guarantee Mitroka plays. He was taken out for precautionary reasons against Huron when it was 28-0. He will be fine.
It's not, trust me. Unless something changed in the last 12 hours.
He simply said great news from the doc. that does not mean he is playing vs FR.

Which is it people?
Mitroka is playing. Look at his twitter!
Mitroka is fine. He will more than likely rest that shoulder this week to be ready for SMCC the following. GI will be ready for FR.
Okay now that it's up I can post it here… Vote them for Game of the Week on Channel 4…. http://www.clickondetroit.com/sports/4frenzy
