REMUS – Hunter Sellers has had a unique season for a Chippewa Hills football team, which was able to crack into the win column with a 24-7 win over Newaygo last week.
“We all read very well played downhill and played smart, hard and fast,” Sellers said. “That was pretty much it. Our last couple of weeks we didn’t read and play downhill. We went sideline to sideline. We changed it up this week and it was very successful.”
He’s a sophomore middle linebacker. He did not play on offense.
Sellers was among the leading tacklers for the Warriors this season.
“The key is reading your guard and reading your tackle whenever they give you that,” he said. “We’ve started to read very well. That’s the main thing that has helped us.”
It’s his first varsity season. He started out on the JV but played one quarter of varsity every Friday under the new five-quarter rule from the MHSAA which allows this.
“Week 4, our middle linebacker got hurt, so I came up and I started the rest of the year,” Sellers said. “I was very excited. (The varsity level) is lot faster. They’re a lot bigger kids who are a lot faster and a lot smarter.”
The Warriors were scheduled to play at home with Pine River on Friday but the Bucks forfeited for disciplinary reasons. Chippewa Hills had been hoping to pick up another game but the MHSAA listed the Warriors as having won the game by forfeit and having finished the season at 2-7.
“It was difficult,” Sellers said. “We had a new defensive coordinator and had to adjust to a bunch of new things. He changed up our whole defense. Like he said, ‘trust the process’ and we trusted it against Newaygo and it worked.”
Sellers is also a wrestler and will begin preparing for that season after football season officially ends.
He also plays baseball in the spring and said it’s probably his favorite sport.
“I’ve played it since I was 3 or 4,” he said. “It’s run in my family for decades.”
