Dayton Round-Up: Bellbrook Ekes Out 8th Straight

A defensive dogfight saw Bellbrook outlast Monroe on the strength of a late fourth quarter 26-yard field goal by sophomore Riley Ferrin. It was the eighth straight victory for the Golden Eagles and more importantly, it clinched the SWBL East championship. It marks the first time in program history that Bellbrook has won three consecutive league titles.

Elijah Brooks got the scoring started with a three-yard touchdown run and Ferrin added the extra point giving the Golden Eagles a 7-0 first quarter advantage. That lead would stand into the fourth quarter when a three-yard run by Monroe back Elijah Jackson hit paydirt and an extra point by Bryce Reynolds tied it up.

Minutes later Ferrin would hit the game winner. It was his fourth field goal of the year. Bellbrook was held to 173 yards on offense. Brooks had a season low 63 yards on the ground after seven straight 100-plus yard rushing performances. The Golden Eagles defense was stellar again holding an opponent to 14 points or less for the eighth time in nine contests this season.

Monroe played well enough to win but unfortunately, the scoreboard will not reflect that. Jackson ran for 59 yards and his 15th touchdown of the season. On defense he had 10 total tackles (six solo) and two tackles for losses.
