Dayton High School Sports: State Berth on Line Tonight as Springfield, Alter, Bellbrook Remain; City League Title Up For Grabs as Belmont, Thurgood Battle; Award List, Top 100 at Harvest

With only a few teams still left in the Miami Valley area in football, lets see the matchups for this weeks Regional final game.

Win this game and head to the OHSAA Semifinals - Which Teams Are Still Left?

Can Smoot lead Cats to State?

ALTER VS BADIN

The Knights have found themselves after a rough start this season, as they have reeled off 7 straight, capped by a sensational performance against the state champs (Trotwood 42-0) last week.

They will face one of the teams that knocked off the Knights earlier this season - Badin. Badin still looks as strong as ever. Will the Knights exercise their demons or fall again?

Powell Olentangy Liberty Vs Springfield

Olentangy has had success against other teams in the GWOC, as they shut down Miamisburg and Fairmont to only 1 score in both games.

While those teams are respectable, they are not the Maurice Douglass Sr Springfield Wildcats, who have all the key ingredients to reach the OHSAA Championship; A vastly underrated but hard hitting defense, a coaching staff that is one of the best in Ohio, and a elite QB who is ready for the moment.

Look for a tight game but we feel this is Springfield's year.

Thurgood vs Belmont for City League Title Tonight

Thurgood will try to battle for the Dayton Public Schools Football Championship against the 5 time champions in Belmont tonight at Welcome Stadium.

While Belmont has been the elite team for most of the last 6 years in DPS, they should be wary. As evidenced by the Ponitz defeat of Dunbar, that no matter what you havee done, can you bring it when it counts? Can Thurgood turn the tide in a Bison stampede over the city League?
