Cincinnati high school football scores in Week 9
Greater Miami Conference
- Colerain 21, Hamilton 0 - FINAL
Colerain has now won four of five since its 0-4 start to the season and may have clinched itself a spot in the Division I, Region 4 playoffs after blanking Hamilton. A Cardinals’ defense that was shredded early in the year has now allowed just three points over the last two games combined after turning its best effort of the season against the visiting Big Blue. Colerain allowed just 76 total yards and the defense supplied the game’s only second-half points when Nathan Frey returned a fumble 39 yards for a touchdown midway through the third quarter. Colerain had just 113 total yards offensively, but quarterback Zae Jennings converted in the redzone with a pair of short touchdown runs to put the Cardinals up double digits at the half.

Sailers has now run for 292 yards and seven scores over the last two weeks combined.
