There’s no place like Princeton for Trotwood
Trotwood-Madison (10-2) had the choice of playing Kings (11-1) in Friday’s Division II, Region 8 high school football final at Princeton or Centerville high schools.
Rams coach Maurice Douglass chose the suburban Cincinnati locale rather than the more closer home of the Elks.
“It was a no-brainer,” he said. “We wanted Princeton.
“It would have been closer (at Centerville), but it ain’t home. Princeton’s like home to us. Our guys have responded to that type of atmosphere every time we’ve been there. Plus, Kings is 0-3 there.”
The Rams are 2-1 in playoff games at Princeton, including last week’s 42-23 thumping of defending D-II state champ Winton Woods.
T-M’s only playoff loss was 35-12 to Edgewood in the first round of the 2006 playoffs.
This is the second straight season that T-M has gone three games deep into the postseason.

Good luck Rams! Stay focused and play like you did last week; fast, smart, and hard-hitting. See you at Princeton Friday night.
