League play got underway in Conference Indiana this past weekend in what should be a wide open race for the title.

 

Pike had payback on its mind when the Red Devils faced Southport at Lucas Oil Stadium Saturday. That is just what they delivered. The Red Devils came away with a 33-7 victory over the Cinderella of last season. Columbus North and Bloomington North also tangled at Lucas Oil. The Bull-Dogs came away with a scintillating 28-27 triumph. This, of course, is the battle of the Bless brothers. Tim is the longtime mentor in Columbus while brother Scott leads the Cougars.

 

On Friday night, Bloomington South downed Franklin Central 20-14 and Lawrence Central overwhelmed Perry Meridian 28-6. All the action left five teams in the league sporting 2-1 overall records while only Perry Meridian is still looking to dent the win column for the season.

 

This coming Friday features two of the biggest rivalries in Conference Indiana. North visits South in the battle of Bloomington and Southport will tangle with Perry Meridian for bragging rights in Perry Township. Pike and Lawrence Central will tussle in the only contest between teams with 1-0 league records.
