Ours hearts are heavy today learning of the passing of ‘17 Captain and ‘18 graduate, Brian Schieweck. He was a tremendous competitor who played with relentless effort and passion. More than that, he was a positive light in this world. We pray for all his friends and family.
Today we lost a woman who was a warrior in every sense of the word. Coach Wouters you were an inspiration to so many. May you rest in peace & suffer no longer. Our thoughts & prayers go out to your family. You will be missed more than words can express.

And with the 39th pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, the Tampa Bucs select Sean Bunting, CB out of Central Michigan University & Chippewa Valley High School!CONGRATULATIONS to you and your entire family!
One of our players unexpectedly lost their mother last night. Thoughts & prayers go out to him, his brother, and his entire family. We love you and are here for you. You know who you are.

Pretty incredible being able to watch Big Red alum
@MrSeanyB1
play at Ford Field today and have a pick 6! Congrats on your hard earned & well deserved success!!!
Thank you Team 57 for an absolutely incredible run. What a great group of young men who accomplished amazing things with tremendous pressure on them. We couldn’t be more proud. Thank you to our parents, students, community members, and fans. We gave it our best.
We are so very proud of each and every member of Team 55. What an outstanding group of young men who did everything asked of them and did it the right way. Thank you. It was our honor and privilege to coach you. You are relentless.
We are extremely grateful to receive a $2500 grant towards equipment from

& the

Way to Play Program on behalf of
@MrSeanyB1
for this perfect form tackle. Thank you very much for your tremendous generosity!
I was recently inducted into the MHSFCA Hall of Fame. It was awkward to accept an individual award for something so many are equally responsible for. Any success I have had can be attributed to the hard work of my players & coaches over the years. Thank you all! Coach Merchant
And what better way to top off National Signing Day than a visit from
@MrSeanyB1
! Thank you for your generosity and for remembering your Big Red roots!
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Desmond family. Just heard the terrible news that Colin, who used to play football at CV, passed away. May he Rest In Peace.
Congratulations to our QB and captain Tommy Schuster on becoming the new Chippewa Valley leader in career TD passes with a 3 TD performance tonight.

Thoughts & prayers going out to
@Djstepney3
and the other
@DakotaFootball
players who were in a car accident. Thankfully it sounds like they will be ok. Wishing quick & full recoveries for all of them. Some things are much more important than football or a rivalry.
Much respect goes out to the
@ClarkstonWolves
for being such a classy, tough, and talented team. Congratulations on your great season and the outstanding program you have built.
Life is precious.
So are people.
It’s difficult but we need to remember that every day. Many times we take for granted the wonderful people in our lives who do the most for us. Thank someone who loves you unconditionally.
It is difficult to believe Coach Wouters has been gone for one year. All our best to the Wouters family & friends. Thanks for sharing her with us. We are all better off for having known her. She is missed greatly.
Rest In Peace Duncan Blair. Very hard to believe it’s been 3 years already. No better way to honor you today than to have a great first day of football practice! Let’s get it!

(1) Truly hope
@NCAA
&
@MHSAA
are going to be proactive and allow us to help our players with the recruiting process. Better let us have fall 7on7s or high school combines that college coaches can attend now in the fall to evaluate so kids have a chance. Spring is too late!
Congratulations to
@schustertommy
on breaking the CV career passing yardage record tonight that was held by
@Pbriningstool
!!! Tremendous accomplishment that’s well deserved!
Here’s the deal: we all have to do our part in order to be able to safely go back to school and have a fall sports season. We can’t just be diligent when we are at workouts. We have to be diligent all the time. Let’s make it happen!

It’s nice to see some players in Macomb County starting to get offers but we can still do better. Coaches there are great players in this area. Come visit our schools in the 586 you won’t be disappointed. For those who have already come through we appreciate you!
Congratulations to
@Cephus_harris3
for breaking the CV single game record for touchdowns with 7 last night! The previous record was 6 and was held by Chris Lomasney.
Our thoughts & prayers go out to
@DCCfootball
who tragically lost one of their players. We have had to deal with similar losses and know the pain. Please know that you have our support during this difficult time.
Since our week 9 OAA Red opponent was not going to honor their commitment to play us at CV, as agreed upon by the MAC and OAA, we were forced to find a new game - in May. Our week 9 opponent will now be
@DetKingFootball
. A great program and a great challenge.
Congratulations to
@Cephus_harris3
who broke the CV single game rushing record last night with 300 yards. He broke the previous record of 285 set by Chris Lomasney in 2000.
A final message from Coach Merchant on his last day at Chippewa Valley:
Thank you Chippewa!
Remember that once a Big Red always a Big Red.
Be Great!

One week ago our students, parents, family, faculty, staff, administrators, friends, alumni, and fans packed Ford Field and made it Red! We want to thank each and every one of you for your support over the year! What a ride!
#BigRedNation
We could not be more proud that 40 of our 64 varsity football players made the 1st Quarter Honor Roll! Being the best you can be in the classroom and on the field. Great work!
HUGE congratulations going out to former CV football captain & alum Jon Andersen who will be working on his PhD in Neuroscience at Harvard next year! WOW!
Although it’s not the ending we hoped and prepared for, we cannot understate the gratitude for Team 60. Your grit and effort are cornerstones of what it takes to be successful football players. And seniors, remember, Once a Big Red, Always a Big Red.

We may have only had a limited summer & five days of practice, but we could not be more proud of our entire Chippewa football community for all of their efforts during this unprecedented time. We will be back. It’s not the ending, it’s the beginning. Stay strong & stick together!

Extremely proud of our players who fought to the very last second. We could not ask for a better group of young people. Special thanks to all of our players, specifically our seniors, all of our parents, families, fans, and supporters. Team 59 left it all out there.

3 years ago to the day we lost a great coach, teacher, and person in Nichole Wouters to cancer. We have lost many others in our community to this disease and even more are currently battling. Tonight we will wear purple and play for all of them!
