Since the MCLA is the league I follow the most closely, I’ll run down the performances of MCLA-1 teams from Michigan on a weekly basis. I’ll be spending less time on Michigan (and occasionally Michigan State), since I cover them regularly.
Michigan 26, Florida 6
Michigan State 12, Florida 6
The Spartans took a little bit of the luster of Michigan’s enormous victory over Florida by beating the Gators comfortably themselves. I had planned to make it out to this game (which took place at Ultimate Soccer in Pontiac), but the weather got reallllly crappy in Southeast Michigan on Sunday afternoon, and I didn’t make it out. Official site recap.
The Spartans have the weekend off before traveling out west for a trio of games in 4 days.
Central Michigan 20, Purdue 5
Central Michigan 18, Toledo 7
Central Michigan 14, Ferris State 11
The Chippewas got their season started a week before Michigan and Michigan State, and have been impressive in their first three game. They pasted both Purdue and Toledo, though MCLA-2 squad Ferris State managed to give them a pretty good game. Are the Chippewas out to prove that Michigan State won’t own the CCLA West?
The Chippewas play again Wednesday against Oakland (MCLA D2), then they have a month off(!) before facing BYU, per their schedule on LaxPower.

Western Michigan hasn’t kicked off their season yet, so stay tuned.
