Freshman starts, but Miller finishes for Wayne

By Kyle Nagel Staff Writer

KETTERING — Freshman Javon Harrison started the Wayne High School football team’s game against Fairmont tonight, Oct. 9.

Braxton Miller, Wayne’s star junior quarterback, didn’t start for the third straight game since suffering a thigh bruise in Week 4 against Trotwood-Madison.

Miller, however, entered on the second series as a wide receiver, and Harrison threw an incomplete pass toward Miller deep down the right side.

Miller also took snaps with the starters during warmups, but Harrison entered on the first series to start.

Beginning with the fifth series, though, Miller returned to quarterback, and he helped Wayne beat Fairmont 21-14 with two fourth-quarter touchdown runs.

Flu bug doesn’t slow Tipp golfers

With the flu making its way through several Miami County schools including Tippecanoe High School, Red Devils girls golf coach Mike Moore worried about having enough players to field a team for the Division I sectional tournament on Thursday, Oct. 8.

Tipp — playing with four girls battling or just over the flu — recovered enough to tie Centerville for first after both shot 352 at Pipestone Golf Course. Centerville won with the fifth-place tiebreaker.

Tipp junior Laura Murray, who was sick earlier in the week, captured medalist honors with her 74. Freshman Kristy Kagy shot 83 for fifth and senior Megan Swan shot 87 — she averages in the 70s — to tie for seventh. Junior Taylor Cook (108) and senior Danae King (113) rounded out the card.

“They didn’t play as well compared to their season averages, but they played well enough to get to the next round,” Moore said. “I’m really proud of them. They really stepped it up.”

The district tournament is at Weatherwax Golf Course in Middletown on Wednesday.
