Tippecanoe knocks off Troy 13-12 and is the only Miami Valley League team without a conference loss. Red Devils overcome mistakes to win, while Troy's mistakes proved too many to overcome.
Cael and Evan Liette combined for four scores by running, catching, and yes, even throwing touchdowns to beat MVL rivals Piqua 28-13. Tipp moves to 3-0 in the MVL while Piqua is uncharacteristically winless.
Troy found the end zone twice in the first half only to get no points because of holding penalties. In the second half, the flags disappeared and the Trojans did enough to improve to 3-0.
A suffocating Butler defense held Piqua to three first downs a 27-3 win en route to Zach Gueth's first win as a head coach. The Aviators dominated the conference opener in all three phases of the game.
Youth and inexperience are part of the story for the Miami Valley League powers far more than usual. Tipp's youth, at this early stage of the season, is ahead of Troy's inexperience.
