CALUMET — It was the battle of the undefeated on the gridiron of Agassiz Field on Friday night as the Calumet Copper Kings football team welcomed the Menominee Maroons to their field. Long story short, both teams were not going to come out of Week Four of football at 4-0.
Unfortunately, for coach John Frantti and his Copper Kings, they suffered their first loss of the season as the Maroons (4-0) downed the Copper Kings (3-1), 25-15.
“I am not too disappointed,” he said. “That (Maroons) is a good football team. We battle and had our chances, but we did not play our best game.”
The Maroons wasted no time in getting on the scoreboard. In the opening minute of the game, Clayton Miller took it 79 yards down the field for six points.
However, the first quarter ended with Calumet in the lead
