HA Staff Report


This is the last year Speedway will compete in the West Central Conference, a league they have dominated in football for well over a decade. The Sparkplugs are once again a powerful unit, but they may have some serious competition this time around.

 

Monrovia highlighted week two results in the WCC by steamrolling Cascade 55-0. That means in the first two weeks, the Bulldogs have outscored two conference opponents by a combined score of 105-0. Meanwhile, Speedway kept pace by downing Greencastle 35-14. It leaves the two squads tied at the top of the league standings.

 

By the way, do not get too caught up in the challenge from Monrovia because there may be another from South Putnam. The Eagles have yet to play a league game, but they also moved to 2-0 on the season by downing traditional power Tri-West Friday night. The final was 23-20. Things will get no easier for South Putnam. They will host 1A bully Rockville next week.

 

Elsewhere in the conference, Southmont upset North Putnam 28-13 leveling the Cougars at 1-1 for the campaign. West Vigo handed Cloverdale a second consecutive loss. The Clovers fell 33-25.
