Badin 45, St. Mary's Memorial 10
The undefeated Badin Rams met 10-win St. Mary’s Memorial and blew the Roughriders right out of the playoffs. After St. Mary’s Memorial cut the Badin lead to 24-10 in the third quarter, Badin responded quickly and often, scoring 21-unanswered points in the game’s final 14:35. The only touchdown of the night for the Roughriders came in the first quarter and tied the game 7-7. Braden Hemmelgarn returned a Badin kickoff 82-yards to the house and it looked like a good game was brewing. The Rams only mustered a field goal on the next drive to go up 10-7, but a punt return by Braedyn Moore ended the first quarter and the Roughriders’ close game. Badin advances and will play Bellbrook in the Division III, Region 12 finals. A win sends the team to the state semifinals.

Bishop Brossart 36, Nicholas County 0
Shutout No. 6 on the season for the Bishop Brossart defense keeps the Mustangs undefeated at 12-0. Bishop Brossart reacyed the third round of the Class 1A playoffs thanks in part to the staunch D and three rushing touchdowns from senior Jed Martin. Martin scored the game’s first two TDs and capped off with the final score. Both teams met on Oct. 1 in a 14-0 shutout win, but the playoff rematch was closer to blowout territory. Neither team scored in the second half, sending the Mustangs cruising into the 1A state quarterfinals.

Parker Mason caught three passes for 124 and two touchdowns. Torin O’Shea caught two passes, both touchdowns. On the ground, Hergott rushed five times and scored while Mitchell Berger scored on one of his four attempts.

Walton-Verona 27, Carroll County 7

A failed PAT and a quick responding score gave Conner a 7-6 lead over Covington Catholic after one quarter.

Hummel, who rushed eight times for 131 yards, followed Agee with a 50-yard trip to the endzone and a 39-yarder to end the game. Conner quarterback Alex Castrucci was 7-9 for 150 yards, half of which came on one play: a 76-yard scoring pass to Alijah Thompson.
