Bellbrook rides defense to win

BELLBROOK – Bellbrook rode stiff defense and up-tempo offense to a 26-10 win over Monroe, Friday night.

The Golden Eagles (4-5, 3-3 SWBL Southwestern) came out ready to play from the opening kickoff, which they returned for 76 yards deep into Hornets (5-4, 4-2 SWBL Southwestern) territory. Six plays later Bellbrook quarterback David Vine was in the endzone off a one-yard sneak.

Monroe tied up the game later in the first quarter on a 94-yard catch-and-run by receiver Connor Curtis.

The Golden Eagles took advantage of good field position and capped off a four-play drive with a 12-yard touchdown run by Connor Oldham, to regain the lead before half, 13-7.

Monroe appeared poised to take the lead when its first play from scrimmage in the second half was a 55-yard Curtis run to the Bellbrook 10 yard line, but the visitors were forced to settle for a 42-yard field goal to draw within three points.

Bellbrook responded on its next drive by marching right back down the field and scoring on another Oldham run to push the score to 20-10. The Golden Eagles would add some insurance with another touchdown on an end zone fade toss to Nathan Cordonnier midway through the fourth quarter.

Oldham finished with 115 yards rushing and two touchdowns on the night.

Undefeated Wayne bashes Beavercreek

BEAVERCREEK — There’s a reason why the Huber Heights Wayne Warriors are considered the second best Division I program in Ohio, and they showed that in Friday’s 48-0 trouncing of Beavercreek.

After an opening drive interception toss, the Warriors (9-0, 4-0 Greater Western Ohio Conference, Central) scored on four of their next six possessions to jump out to a 28-0 lead at halftime.

Wayne scored on two fumble recoveries in the Beavercreek end zone, and reeled off a 65-yard run for the other Warrior score. A running game clock for most of the second half prevented further damage.

Wayne quarterback Messiah DeWeaver completed 10 of 18 passes for 244 yards, and connected on touchdown passes of 20, 43, 93 and 34 yards.

Beavercreek (6-3, 2-2 GWOC Central) finished with 30 yards in total offense.
