XENIA — After a tough season-opening loss, the Greeneview Rams have been virtually unstoppable.

They posted their third straight double-digit win Friday, beating Springfield Catholic Central, 35-7. The Rams (3-1, overall and in the Ohio Heritage Conference South Division) scored all their points in the first half and put it in cruise control the rest of the way.

Andrew Hackney recovered a fumble in the end zone early in the first quarter to give the Rams a quick lead. Carter Williams (nine yards) and Logan Sandlin (one yard) ran for touchdowns to give Greeneview a 21-0 first-quarter lead. Kristopher Phillips caught a 6-yard pass from Cole DeHaven, and Rylan Hurst ran for a 4-yard TD to make it 35-0 at the half. Hunter Anderson made all five extra points.

Dehaven completed four of eight passes for 50 yards to lead the passing attack. Dakota Mangan ran six times for 83 yards, Hurst 13 for 79, and Jayden Dehaven four for 60.

Jarrod Mays led the Rams with six tackles.

Greeneview is at 2-2 Madison Plains Friday.

Bellbrook 42, Eaton 0

The Golden Eagles — still ranked No. 2 in the Division-III state poll released Monday — had little trouble beating the Southwestern Buckeye League’s other Eagles to improve to 4-0 overall and 3-0 in the SWBL.
