Sports at a Glance
J. C. Tilton
Brookville(1-1) vs. Milton Union(2-0). Brookville had a tough time of it against Eaton. Milton Union has some momentum after their easy victory last Friday. This game will help determine if it is a rebuilding season for Brookville, or if they have the muscle to win their division in the SWBL. Should be a close game, but Milton Union will have the advantage.
Dixie(2-0) vs. Fort Loramie(0-2) Well Dixie is on a roll. Can they make it 3 games in a row? This is Fort Loramie's first season of varsity football. They have lost their first two games, but they can put up some points. So Dixie cannot look past this team. Still Dixie should prevail by a score or better.
Tri-County North(1-1) vs. Bradford(2-0) Bradford has a new coach this season. He is doing something right because Bradford has beaten Riverside - a team that made the playoffs last season, and also beat Ansonia a team that had regularly beaten Bradford. So the team is on the rebound. North is smarting after being beaten by Covington. They need to regain their confidence. This will be a close contest, North wins by a TD or less.
Twin Valley South(0-2) vs. Bethel(1-1) Goins has had some good games against TVS. South had problems with the run last week and unless they stop Goins it could be another long night. Bethel was buzzsawed by a strong Anna team, they are looking for revenge. Look for Bethel to win by at least two scores.
Valley View(2-0) vs. Fairborn(0-2) Fairborn has graduated some talent, as evident by their 0-2 start. They lost in overtime to Beavercreek last week. Valley View has started to attract attention with their overtime victory over Roger Bacon last week. Will the Spartans be giant killers for the third week in a row. Last week's victory has be a confidence builder, but sometimes teams let down after a big win. Good coaching won't allow that, it will be another close game but Valley View will win by a TD or less.
