PANTHERS
Class 3A,
Sectional 23
Mid-Southern
Conference
October 24, 2008
Looking Ahead
CLASS 3A, SECTIONAL 23
First-Round Opponent:
Edgewood
Time:
7 p.m.
Location:
At Corydon Central High
School
Records:
Edgewood (8-1
overall, 5-0 in the Western Indiana Conference);
Corydon Central (1-8
overall, 1-5 in the Mid-Southern Conference).
State Rankings:
Edgewood
(No. 10 AP, No. 9 IFCA in Class 3A).
Sagarin Ratings:
Edgewood
(No. 122 Overall; No. 19 in Class 3A); Corydon Central (No. 298 Overall;
No. 62 in Class 3A).
Sagarin Game
Prediction:
Edgewood by 35.
Last Week:
Corydon Central
dropped its fourth straight contest, 55-0 to unbeaten Tecumseh. The WIC
champion Mustangs exploded for 62 points in their eighth straight win,
62-31 over Beech Grove.
Regular-Season Meeting:
Did Not
Play.
Next Week:
The winner will face the winner of the Crawford County-Brown
County game. A Corydon Central victory would send them on the road for a
semifinal game against either the Wolfpack or the Eagles. If Edgewood
wins, it would host Brown County or go to Marengo to face Crawford
County.
Last Year:
The Mustangs topped the Panthers, 47-7 in the semifinal, before going on
to lose in the championship game, 51-15 to Heritage Hills.
The “Inside” Scoop:
Edgewood has come a long, long way in the past couple of years and may
be on the verge of its first sectional championship since 1990.
Scoop’s Pick:
Edgewood 49, Corydon Central 12.

Championship
Semifinal
Winners
Favorite:
Heritage Hills. Despite being in a rebuilding
season, the Patriots' tradition speaks loudly. Plus, HH
faces -- by far -- the toughest schedule of any team in
Sectional 23.
Darkhorse:
Edgewood. Once again, the Mustangs got a favorable
draw. Senior QB Josh Collier gives Edgewood at shot at
winning any game in this tournament.
Best
Player: Cameron Metzger, Charlestown. The Pirate
senior was easily the best player in this sectional
until an early-season knee injury. He's back. If he's
back near 100%, Charlestown has a great shot at winning
its first sectional since 1996.
X-Factor:
Heritage Hills. It's really hard to tell just how
good the Patriots are. They have lost to some inferior
teams, but they beat a very good team in South Spencer,
23-0, in Week 9.
Scoop's
Picks
First
Round:
Heritage
Hills 18, Salem 13; Charlestown 40, North Harrison 14;
Edgewood 49, Corydon Central 12; Crawford County 32,
Brown County 14.
Semifinals: Heritage Hills 35, Charlestown 27;
Edgewood 50, Crawford County 16.
Championship: Heritage Hills 42, Edgewood 21.
The
"Inside" Scoop: Oh, so much to say about
this sectional. 1.) Heritage Hills is still the
favorite, but the Patriots are vulnerable -- good news
for Charlestown and Salem; 2.) Edgewood is solid and
will have little problem getting to the championship
game for the second straight year. If things fall right,
the Mustangs could win their first sectional title since
1990; 3.) Salem is a legit contender. As good as the
Lion defense is, Salem will be in any game. 4.) Crawford
County is going to win five games this season. Just how
amazing is that? Can you say, "Team of the Future." 5.)
After saying all of that, Heritage Hills will still
probably win Sectional 23.

BRAVES FINISH
UNBEATEN FOR FIRST TIME
With a 55-0 win
over Corydon Central
Tecumseh finished
unbeaten in the regular season for the first time in school
history when it beat Corydon Central, 55-0 on Friday.
It was the
Braves' defense fourth shutout of the season. Tecumseh's
defense surrendered just 44 points all season -- 20 of which
came in Week 8 against Providence.
On Friday, the
Braves were led by Bryce Speicher, who had 187 of Tecumseh's
328 rushing yards. He scored three first quarter touchdowns
to put the game away early. He also caught two passes for 23
yards.
Jacob Duncan
added 170 yards and three second-half touchdowns.
Jeremiah Windell
had 12 tackles and a quarterback sack for the Corydon
Central defense.
Corydon Central
kicks off Sectional 23 play next Friday at home against 8-1
Edgewood. The Mustangs won their eighth straight game, 62-31
over Beech Grove on Friday.
The Braves have
one of the state's biggest games on Friday when they host
Linton-Stockton, which is also unbeaten. The Miners
completed their regular season unbeaten after a 68-0 win
over North Central on Friday. It was Linton's fifth shutout
in nine games this season.

GRAHAM'S 7 TOUCHDOWNS LEADS PIRATES
Charlestown takes down Corydon Central,
55-26
Josh Graham scored seven touchdowns -- six
in the first half, one in the second --
leading Charlestown to a 55-26 win over
Corydon Central on Friday.
Graham had three rushing touchdowns in the
first quarter, then two in the second. He
also returned a fumble 32 yards for a
touchdown in the second period to push
Charlestown out to a 41-18 lead at halftime.
He also scored the first touchdown of the
second half on a 3-yard run.
The junior finished with 162 yards on 25
carries. He also had 45 yards on three
receptions.
Michael Baines backed up Graham with 137
yards on 12 carries.
The victory was a big one for the Pirates,
who lost their first regular-season game in
two seasons last week against Providence. It
also gives them a 4-0 mark in the MSC, one
victory away from clinching a share for the
MSC title.
Charlestown will try to clinch its second
straight MSC title when it goes to Salem
next Friday. The Lions are 4-2 and 3-1 in
the MSC after a 44-0 win over Eastern on
Friday. They could pull even with
Charlestown in the standings with a win.
Lost in Graham's performance was the second
big outing for the Corydon passing
combination of Richard Armstrong and Brandon
Dunaway. A 27-yard Armstrong-to-Dunaway pass
gave the Panthers an early 6-0 lead. They
hooked up for two more TD passes in the
first half, a 20 yarder in the first quarter
to pull the Panthers to within 14-12 and an
80 yarder in the second quarter to cut the
Pirates' lead to 34-18.
Armstrong completed 15 of 27 passes for 197
yards. Dunaway caught four passes for 142
yards. Dunaway also had four tackles and an
interception on defense.
Meanwhile, Corydon Central goes to Paoli to
face a resurgent Rams squad. After years and
years of losing, the Rams are 6-0 under
second-year coach Brian Balsmeyer. They beat
Crawford County 49-7 on Friday.
