Dayton Round-Up: Piqua Perfect, Trounces Troy
- Updated: September 6, 2022
Ohio’s oldest high school rivalry had one of its most lopsided outcomes in history as Piqua throttled Troy, 59-0, in the 138th meeting between the two the schools. It was the third straight win for the Indians over the Trojans and their 19th consecutive regular season victory. Piqua has outscored its foes 172-0 in 2022. The Indians have played the entire second half of all three of their contests on the running clock.
Midway through the second quarter the Indians built a 31-0 lead on the strength of three defensive touchdown returns and it all happened in span of 12-plus minutes. Bryson Roberts got things started with a 36-yard pick-six with just under six minutes left in the first quarter. Less than a minute later Brennan Johns was in the end zone after returning a Troy fumble 10 yards. At that point the rout was on.
Piqua senior Sam Schmiesing ran for a game high 98-yards and a pair of scores. Classmate Brady Ouhl went 7-8 for 140 yards and a touchdown toss. He is now 18-22, has an 81.8 completion rate with 369 yards passing, six touchdown tosses and no interceptions on the season.
The Indians defense posted its ninth shutout during the teams current 19-game regular season winning streak. They are holding foes to 5.5 points per game during that span.
The all-time series between Troy and Piqua now stands at an eerily appropriate 66-66-6.
