West Lafayette Jr-Sr High School

10/23/26 West Lafayette Vs. Northwestern Location: Northwestern Time: 7:00pm Final Score: 49-14 (West Lafayette) The Red Devils came out with intensity and determination for the first round of sectionals against Northwestern. The West Lafayette team received some great news earlier in the week that Kojo Steffey would be returning to the lineup, and Steffey did not disappoint! The Red Devil offensive line greeted Steffey with room to run, and that he did! Steffey got into the end zone three times, and Chase Ostrom also contributed with another Red Devil rushing touchdown. Quarterback Blake Biddle was well protected by his offensive line throughout the game, allowing him to throw touchdown passes to Braylon Crisp, Andrew Pfeiffer, and Tanner McPherson. Defensively, the Red Devils shut down the Tigers! The West Lafayette secondary continuously disrupted the throwing game, and Chase Ostrom, Caleb Landess, and Onyx Shamo each intercepted Northwestern passes. The Red Devil defensive line applied continuous overwhelming pressure, forcing many mistakes, and the team tackling for the Red Devils halted most of the Tiger offensive drives. The West Lafayette squad is eager for the next round of sectionals, as they’ll host Maconaquah. There’s no doubt the Red Devils will continue to build off of this dominating performance against Northwestern. Come on out this Friday night and root for the Red Devils! RDP!
