Journal Sports Editor Jerry Nardiello reports Middletown Middies suffered a 6-0 loss to Cincinnati Roger Bacon. The defeat shakes their early success and sidelines one player for the season with another possibly finished.
Middletown suffers its first defeat as two players endure severe heat and an injury scare. Donnie Howard fractures his left leg and Keith Clements nearly dies in the dressing room, prompting coach Gordon to reflect on the tough hour. Roger Bacon dominates the second half with a late scoring drive after costly fumbles and a failed field goal.
Fenwick Falcons overcome penalties and a strong Franklin defense to win 23-12, lifting to 4-0 on the year and 2-0 in the Mid- Miami League. Key plays include a 93 yard kickoff return by Mike Harkrader and a late 71 yard drive capped by Mickey Roberts and Greg Klapheke. Franklin led 12-7 late in the third, but Fenwick shut out the Wildcats in the final period.
Cincinnati Bengals running back Doug Dressler will miss at least six weeks after knee surgery. Team physician George Ballou said the injury occurred when the right knee locked up during preseason, with Dressler hurt in the final exhibition against the Packers.
Cincinnati Roger Bacon crushed Middletown 46 to 0 while Fenwick defeated Franklin 23 to 12 and Lebanon beat Madison 42 to 12. Additional results include St Xavier 15 LaSalle 14, Elder 25 Watterson 0, Purcell 40 Newport Catholic 3, and many more district league games across Ohio with several shutouts and notable upsets.
