HS Football Week 7 Recap:
Dunbar Rolls Past Meadowdale in 2nd Half, As Payton, Roberts Ball in Game of The Week
Dunbar came into Showdown with Meadowdale feeling like they would be in a real dogfight. After some jabbing in the 1st quarter, two of their biggest dogs came ready for war, as the Wolverines rolled off 35 straight points midway in a 15-minute stretch to turn a close game into a rout. The Wolverines would roll to a big win 42-22.
Two- way Star Lamar Payton would score on offense and defense, and Senior QB Nate Roberts shook off a hard hit early in the game to come back and throw for over 230 yards and 2 TDs to lead Dunbar to a 3-2 record and a huge win over a rival. The Wolverines had heard all the hype about Meadowdale they could take and proved they were ready for all the smoke the Lions had. Dunbar is now at 2-0 in City League play.
Lions Star RB McKinney would run for over 100 yards in the loss. The Lions now fall to 4-2 and looked one dimensional when the running game was not as effective as it normally is. Only 3 passing attempts for All-City QB Charles Sumlin, one that was intercepted, and that is not nearly enough for the dual threat star who has been lights out all season.
Springfield Runs Defensive Shutout Streak To 14
The Springfield Wildcats ran their record to 6-0 after a shutout win over Springboro. The Cats used a stout D and relied on the superior skill set of Mr. Football Candidate Tae’Sean Smoot, who was once again unstoppable.
The defense was led by Delian Bradley, who garnered a INT in the game and the DL combo of Jokell Brown and Tywan January, who came and spoke on set of Dayton HS Sports last weekend.
“We want to continue the (shutout) streak through the rest of the season" January spoke.
He was regarding the 14 quarter scoreless streak that was started in the 2nd half of Wayne game. Springfield is currently #4 in the OHSAA D-1 Rankings (Week 6).
Centerville Wins 4th Straight
The Centerville Elks won their 4th straight game as they knocked off Northmont in blowout fashion. With the win Centerville now sits at 6-1 on the season.
The combo of Chase Harrison and Cam Smith has been lethal. Add to the fact that the defense has 2 consecutive shutouts, and coach Ullery has got something special this season. They take on Springfield in the Game of the Week.
Wayne Continues to Move Towards Playoff Berth
The Wayne Train has been rolling in another big win to move to 5-2 on the season. RJ Mukes ran a punt back in a blowout win, as the Warriors offensive attack was on full display last week.
With a plethora of players scoring, the Warriors are unleashing the vaunted offense at the right time.
Belmont wins 2nd straight, Ready to Defend City League
The Belmont Bison have officially put themselves back into the discussion for a 7th consecutive City League Championship after a blowout win against Thurgood.
Star DB- RB- WR Damir Dewberry scored on offense early and was a catalyst while RB- LB Victor Fleming Jr scored on a TD run and was dominant on the defensive side as well. With the win the Bison move to 1-0 in the City League for coach Jordan Paschal, and he enjoys his 1st winning streak in his young coaching career.
Trotwood Back on Winning Track
The Trotwood Rams are seemingly getting back on track after their 2nd consecutive win as well, as they handled the Ponitz Panthers at home. Sophomore Tim Carpenter has gotten more comfortable into the role as leader, along with the offensive line which is improving. Ponitz now loses its 2nd in a row after a heartbreaking loss last week to Dunbar.
C-J Wins Big Over Caroll; Alter Falls To Badin
The Chaminade Julienne Eagles destroyed Carroll last week, en route to a 3-2 record with 3 games left. Kenyon Owens and the vaunted rushing attack led the Eagles.
Alter, on the other hand, lost its 2nd in a row, this one to league leading Badin by a score of 28-0. With the loss, it puts the Knights in a tough position of 2-5 with 3 games left to play.
Piqua Dumps Another Opponent
The #8 ranked OHSAA D-2 team in the state overhauled Greenville 49-0 to move to 6-0 on the season. With ballers all over the field, this is one Indians team to watch.
Red Devils Gets Easy Win
The Tipp Red Devils won another MVL battle, and with it, stay in contention for a League Title. With only 1 loss on the season, the Red Devils are definitely playoff bound.
Stebbins Pushes Towards Playoff Berth
The Stebbins Indians shutout another opponent, running their record to 5-2 on the season. Led by dynamic and powerful RB Omar Holloway, the Indians are smelling a playoff berth. If they can finish 2-1 they should find themselves in the playoffs.
