Football: Huber Heights Wayne Freshman Receiving Offers

Although it is typically unheard of for a sophomore, let alone a freshman, to receive Division I scholarship offers in football - Wayne freshman Braxton Miller has already received on from the University of Cincinnati. Miller, a super frosh quarterback, began impressing the scouts after looking solid in Week 1 against Cincinnati Colerain. At 6-foot-2 and 185 pounds, Miller also played basketball for the Warriors.

Baseball: Sophomores lead way for St. Edward

Allie had two hits, including a double and a three-run homer as he finished with six RBI's. Fellow sophomore Alex Lavisky went 2-for-3 for the Eagles (5-1, 2-0). The Plain Dealer
