CINCINNATI — Friday, Nov. 5 marked the second round of the OHSAA playoffs, with ESPN's College GameDay crew checking out the action.

Kirk Herbstreit and company joined the "Bomb Squad," watching St. Xavier face GLC South rivals Elder. Herbstreit's son, Chase, is a freshman quarterback at St. X though he does not play for the varsity team. Still, he and the rest of the GameDay panel cheered on the Bombers.

The first time the two teams met this season, St. X's Charles Kellom ran for 164 yards. This time around, Kellom finished with a career-high 217 rushing yards. The Bombers defeated the Panthers 42-7, doing their part to set up a rematch with Lakota West.

"Just proud of the guys," Moeller coach Mark Elder said. "We came into this season internally we had a lot of high expectations. We knew that we were capable of being a good team. We've done a good job. We just got to keep it rolling."
