Thursday Games:
Northmont hammers Butler, stays undefeated
Northmont would start the game off with a TD off a failed punt and never look back, dominating Butler 49-16.
Miles Johnson threw for 5 TD's as the Bolts struck early and often.
The Bolts move to 4-0 on the season.
Butler falls to 2-2.
Dunbar gets first win of season, stops Ponitz in shootout as Packnett Jr. steps up
Sophmore QB Greg Packnett, Jr. knew that if the Dunbar Wolverines would get their first victory on the season?
He would have to step it up.
And step it up he did, as he carried the Wolverines to a 42-33 game.
Literally.
Packnett rushed for 4 TDs, including the Game Clincher late in the 4th as the Wolverines held off a pesky Ponitz squad for the 1st win in Dayton Public School League this season.
Ponitz was prepared for battle and with 3 fumble recoveries (for TDs), 2 by Rising DB Donyea McNary and a pick 6 INT by Ward, they stayed in the game, and almost won it.
Packnett, the son of the legendary 2-sport star Greg Packnett who dominated the Miami Valley in the 90's, now has become his sons motivational coach and gives him advice when necessary.
The advice to Greg Jr in crunch time?
"Stay composed, make plays, and get this W."
Mission accomplished.
The Wolverines move to 1-3 on the season, while Ponitz falls to 0-4.

Friday Recap Week 4 Games:
C-J routs Purcell, stays #1 in State Poll
Chaminade handled business once again as they crushed Purcell Marian 38-0 behind Junior Sensation Ryan Minor, as he threw for 3 TDs, Quincy Johnson ran for 2 TD's and caught another, Marquis Henry ran for 114, the defense caused 3 turnovers and it was all Eagles. C-J moves to 4-0.
Up next? a big showdown with undefeated Carroll.
Miamisburg knocks off Wayne , stays undefeated
The Burg was rockin' as they used a stout running game, a D that wouldn't give and a QB who was in tune to a suprising 30-13 win against the Wayne Warriors.
Early in the game Wayne had a chance to seize control, but could only muster Field goals, which would bite them in the butt later in the game.
Once Miamisburg got momentum in the 3rd quarter, it was no looking back as QB Tate Vongsy directed a offense that would roll up over 225 yards on the ground, 77 by Vongsy himself. Jon Yerkins dominated in the game, as he ran for 2 TD's, 100+ yards, and snatched a sweet INT as well.
Wayne had a shot to get into game early in the 4th but the INT by Yerkins, and a 9 min drive that was mostly punishing runs, sealed the fate of the Wayne Train.
After the game we was able to speak to top Ohio Prospect CB Cameron Moore Perry, and he felt like they are ready to take the next step and compete for the GWOC Championship this season.
Wayne falls to 2-2 while Miamisburg stays undefeated (4-0).
Springfield crushes Centerville, shows they're no joke
The Wildcats have took some tough losses to the Centerville Elks in the last few years.
So it was easy for Springfield to play top level football as they have done all season. There was just a little more purpose, knowing they could possibly keep the Elks winless (0-4).
And after the 1st quarter, it was all Cats as they rolled over Centerville 49-6 en route to their first 4-0 season in a while.
The Cats plowed Centerville's defense for over 450 yards rushing as the Elks had no answers for the backfield trio of Jeff Tolliver (145 yds, 3 TD's), Tavion Smoot (165 yds) and Dual threat QB Raheim Moss, who ran for 160 and 3 TD's himself.
Moss did throw a TD to Kentucky Commit and All-Ohio DB Moses Douglass, who was rock solid on defense as well.
Defensively Isaiah Gibson, the 4 star OL who also committed to Kentucky, was dominant, with 2 sacks, a forced fumble, and was the anchor on the O-Line which dominated on the night.
Springfield moves to 4-0 on the season.
Trotwood gets back on track as Defense Dominates
The Rams had taken 2 of the best teams in the Midwest, so when they would face a Sidney team without their 2 star players of a year ago.
With that being said, it was all Trotwood as they put up 41 against the Yellow Jackets in a balanced effort for the Rams.
While the offense was solid, the defense was spectacular, forcing 7 turnovers, 4 sacks, and wreaking havoc all night.
Kennedy Coates once again showed why he's one of the very best defenders in Ohio, amassing 2 sacks while dominating the line of scrimmage, Jerrell Sanders led the team with 8 tackles and a INT,
Sophomore Sensation Ravae Garrett snatched a pick 6 and had 2 INTs overall and 2-sport star DB Carl Blanton, had 2 INTs himself.
Trotwood moves to 2-2 on the season, while Sidney falls to 1-3.
Belmont falls to St. Francis DeSales on road
The Bison brutal schedule continues to give them a tough road, as they fell to St Francis DeSales on the road. While the Bison are 0-4, there is still a sense of a playoff run for Belmont.
They have taken on some of the top teams in the state, and hope that it will pay off later in the season.
Meadowdale wins as team "No Call, No Show" strategy backfires
The Lions were awarded a forfeiture as Reigning Thunder Academy pulled a "No Call, No Show" as they didn't show up for their game as part of the doubleheader at Welcome Stadium on Friday Night.
In what was supposed to be the 2nd game of the doubleheader (Thurgood vs Winton Woods was 1st game) Meadowdale was looking to move to 2-2, but then realized that nobody would return a call, a text, a email, nothing.
Lions Head Coach Brown was befuddled, to say the least.
Reigning Thunder Academy is a prep school located in Columbus area.
Just no call? Or no show?
What organization does that?
In the meantime, Meadowdale moves to 2-2 on the season, the only team in Dayton Public Schools with a winning record at the moment. Congrats to the Lions.
Playoff talk for the Dale'?
Troy drops 62 on Stebbins
The Troy Trojans once again look like they are headed for a playoff push, after a 62-0 drubbing of Stebbins.
QB Brayden Siler threw for 315 and 5 TD's while Jaydon Culp-Bishop ran for 130 and 4 TD's as the Trojans stay undefeated (4-0) and atop the GWOC Standings.
Sam Jackson 11 tackles and 1.5 sacks led the D.
Stebbins falls to
Alter wins 3rd straight
Alter seems to have put their troubles behind, after a loss in game 1 to Fairmont.
The offense accounted for 622 yards of total offense in shutting down Roger Bacon 49-14.
The win pushes the Knights to 3-1 on the season.
Winton Woods shuts out Thurgood
Winton Woods jumped out on Thurgood and never looked back, scoring the first 52 points of the game, before winning 59-6 at Welcome Stadium.
The loss drops Thurgood to 0-4 on the season.
Tipp blows by West Carrollton in shootout
Tippecanoe bounced back from a tough loss last week to win a shootout with West Carrollton 56-26 as they ran over, around, and through the Pirates defense for a whopping 500 yards on the ground. However, West Carrollton did put up a fight and offensively has shown they can compete, as rising QB Triston Dillon threw for 350 yards and 3 TD's in the loss. Austin Jones caught 2 more TD's while Jordan Ward accounted for almost 200 yards of total offense and a TD to boot.
Tipp moves to 2-2 while West Carrollton falls to 1-3.
Carroll stops McNick, sets up showdown with C-J next week
The Carroll Patriots have been rolling all season, and after another big win over Cincy McNicholas 38-27, the Patriots now have their sights set on the big Matchup at C-J on Friday Night.
Carroll jumped out to a 21-0 lead after 2 big TD runs by rising RB Fred Butts (36 and 37 yards) and a Pick-6 INT by 2 way baller Will Severt set the tone and gave the Patriots all the cushion they needed to secure the win.
Carroll now readies for the Showdown with Chaminade which should make the FootballU4U Top Games this week.
