Wayne stops the Burg as McKee erupts for 6 TDs
Wayne was down 7 midway through the 2nd quarter, and the Vikings continent was feeling like "this could be the year" after a TD had put them up 21-14 right before the half.
Would this be the year that Miamisburg continues through its season undefeated, beating one of its nemesis, the Wayne Warriors?
Was Wayne overrated?
Warriors head coach Jay Minton felt, that at that moment, he would see what his team was truly made of.
Backs against the wall, young team as a whole, and playing against a good team salivating for a win against them?
"I just hoped the guys would stay calm" Minton said.
Erupt was more like it.
Rashad McKee Jr, the fast rising junior QB, then took the game into his own hands and delivered one of the best peformances by a QB in this young season.
He directed the Warriors to a TD drive capped on a run by himself to tie the game before half, then directed 5 more drives in the 2nd half en route to a 56-28 blowout win at Heidkamp Stadium on Friday Night.
Wayne tied it up at half, then took the lead on a McKee to Blue Smith TD immediately after the half.
From there it was all Wayne.
Junior WR Steven Victoria was also a stud for the night, as he had a career high 6 catches for a whopping 203 yards on the game.
Wayne new moves to 3-1 while Miamisburg falls to 3-1.
Star WR Tyler Johnson caught a TD for the Vikings in the first loss on the season.
Belmont continues its dominant defensive run, shuts out Lions
The Bison continued to show why they could be headed towards a 3rd consecutive playoff run as they dominated the Lions in a 57-0 win. The Bison have given up 1.3 points a game, a stifling mark this far into the season. Coach White was happy with the performance, but knows that its still early and the Bison must stay focused for the playoff stretch. Senior RB's Elijah Malcolm and Dawson Martin led the Bison.

Thurgood rallies to snatch first W
Thurgood was on the ropes against Western Hills, but used a dynamic 2nd half to get their first W of the season in Cincy. Western Hills had cut the lead to 3 (24-21) and the momentum had shifted, but the Cougars ran off 21 straight points to lockdown their first victory on the season and in the SWOPL.

Bowser carries Sidney to another epic win with record setting performance
Northwestern commit Isaiah Bowser powered the Yellow Jackets to a 4-0 mark with a 413 yard 6- TD performance against Xenia as they outpaced the Bucs 55-48.
Sidney needed every yard of the efforts as they couldn't stop the Bucs. So they relied on their monster back, and he delivered. Again. And again. And again.
He has over 1,000 yards already, and could be headed for OHSAA record type numbers at this point. Not to mention that Sidney is now 4-0.

Fairmont continues to ride the unbeaten streak after improbable comeback
Fairmont continued its great run with a big comeback victory over Springboro, as 2nd year head coach David Miller runs the Firebirds record to 4-0. A Braden Miller to Ryan Hall bomb was the difference as the Fairmont only threw the ball 3 times, but the 3rd times a charm as the bomb helped keep the Firebirds undefeated.

Ponitz shuts out Riverview Academy
Ponitz was able to pick up its first win of the season, a 32-0 shutout over Riverview Academy. Coach Jim Place knows he has a young team, but the Panthers came out focused and took care of business to get their first defensive shutout and win on the season in the SWOPL.

Stars of Week 4
Rashad McKee, QB Wayne
McKee a junior, was the biggest star of the Weekend, with 6 TD's total against a top opponent in Miamisburg. Not only did he produce 6 TD's, McKee stepped up when the Warriors needed him most.
Tavion Thomas, Dunbar
Thomas has found his groove with another 160 yard performance in a big win over Schoder.
Raveion Hargrove, RB Trotwood
Hargrove was ultra dynamic in rushing for 230+ yards and 2 TD's as the Rams routed Tipp. The Bowling Green commit broke off a couple of long runs, which helped the Top Ranked Rams.
Isaiah Bowser, RB Sidney
Bowser rushed around, through, and past Sidney defenders for 413 yards and 6 TD's as the Xenia defense had no answer for the Northwestern commit
Alec Grandin, QB Centerville
Grandin was nearly flawless in a hostile environment against a team who has playoff hopes, in which he went 20-24 for 230 against a very tough defense. He also kept the Elks undefeated and now ranked in the state (#7)
Elijah Malcolm, RB Belmont Malcolm was unstoppable along with the O-Line as they did what they wanted in the big win over Meadowdale.
Ayyoub Muhummed, QB Thurgood Muhummed took the Cougars to a big win with a decisive 4th quarter in which he led the attack as Thurgood grabbed its first W of the season in SWOPL play.
Here are the Top Games in Week 5 around the Miami Valley
SWOPL
Woodward (1-3) @ Belmont (4-0)
Can Woodward find the recipe for a upset tonight at Welcome StadiALum? Belmont has been lights out this season, and put their No Touchdown Rule back on the board. While Woodward hasn't had the season they wanted, they still boast a lot of talent and will be ready to battle. However, this isn't the same Belmont team who has been accustomed to losing. Coach White will have his squad ready to go.
Dunbar (3-1) @ Aiken (3-1) (Saturday)
Can the Wolverines get a big W on the road against one of the best teams in the league? Aiken lost last week, but have played well overall this season. Dunbar has been one of the best teams outside of Week 1, and seem to be getting more confidence as a team. Tavion Thomas has started to explode, which can be attributed to the O-Line getting more camaraderie and cohesion. Aiken will be ready, can the Wolverines pull off another key road victory in Cincy?
GWOC
Wayne (3-1) @ Northmont (3-1)
In the Game of the Week, are the Bolts forreal? Or will the Wayne Train continue to roll, as they are on a 3 game winning streak? Northmont has been on a roll lately, but will face a beast few have been able to conquer in the last decade, and with the Wayne Train offense playing well and getting some key guys back on D such as Taz Wilcox and Antwuan Johnson, the Warriors should be ready for a big game in Northmont.
Springfield (3-1) @ Lebanon (2-2)
Can the Cats' shake off a tough home loss and go on the road against a tough Lebanon team that is playing well in the last couple weeks? Will be a tough task for Coach Moe and Springfield.
Fairmont (4-0) @ Beavercreek (4-0)
Which of the unlikely 4-0 teams will continue the magic ride? The Firebirds, or the Beavers, which both have had great success early this season.
Greenville (2-2) @ Trotwood (4-0)
Can Greenville pull off the biggest upset in OHSAA this season? Or will the Rams prove to be too much like they have for every opponent this season?
SWBL
Franklin (4-0) @ Valley View (4-0) In a game that could feature 2 teams headed to the playoffs, this is no doubt the game of the year in the SWBL. With both teams featuring high octane rushing offenses, it could come down to the defense on who gains the advantage on being the best in the SWBL.
GCL
Alter (3-1) @ Fenwick (1-3) Can Alter continue its torrid stretch after a 58-0 rout and a 3 game winning streak? Or will Fenwick get back on track after losing 3 in a row?
C-J (2-2) @ Bloom-Carroll (1-3) - Can C-J continue its midseason push for a possible playoff spot? The Eagles used that big win over Meadowdale and defeated Fenwick to get them back to .500. Can they pull off a big road win?
