The win secured a Region 16 playoff berth and gave CHCA (9-1, 6-1) a first-round matchup at undefeated Batavia (10-0) next Friday night according to JoeEitel.com.

CHCA snapped a three-game losing streak to North College Hill. Nick Weaver wasn’t about to go down in what would be his last game Richard E. and Robert D. Lindner Field. The senior returned a punt for a score, caught one of two Conner Osborne touchdown tosses while racking up over 100 all-purpose yards. Classmate Adam Chappelle led the Eagles with five receptions for 95 yards with one scoring catch and had an interception and 0.5 sacks on defense. Cameron Murray had eight touches and accounted for 110 yards of total offense.

The Trojans downfall was four turnovers and their inability to complete passes on crucial downs, going just 5-of-18 for 50 yards on the night through the air. The 12 points that CHCA gave up was the tied for the second most that they have allowed in a game this fall. The Eagles gave up 20 in the opener and just 41 in the nine tilts after that.
