Pirates, Cru fans agree on state of football
Ottawa Township High School and Ottawa Marquette Academy may be long-time rivals, but fans on both sides can agree on one thing — it’s been a great football season this year.
For the first time ever, both the Ottawa Pirates and Marquette Crusaders football teams finished undefeated. The farthest into the season both schools were undefeated at the same time previously was at 2-0 in 1970.
The Pirates posted their first 9-0 campaign since 1995, including a 5-0 mark as Big Northern 12 Conference West champions.
