ENQUIRER PREP SPORTS SHOW
IT'S BACK: Watch 'The Enquirer Prep Sports Show' Sundays at 11:30 a.m. on WCPO-9!
WEEK 12 PREVIEW             • Rosters
Rematch featured on Ohio side
        The sequel should be better than the first game, when Kings held on for a 14-7 victory over Lebanon's defending state Division II champions in Week 3.

Ky. underdogs out to even the score
        The mantra this week at Holmes, Newport Central Catholic and Ludlow has been simple: Everything to gain. Nothing to lose.

PREVIEWS OF FRIDAY'S OHIO GAMES
Edgewood's task biggest of the season
        Records can be deceiving, but Edgewood football coach Steve Channell isn't about to be fooled by Chillicothe's early-season performance.

Lebanon better prepared this time
        Emotion was lacking. Enthusiasm, a trademark of the 1998 team, was nowhere to be found.

New Richmond faces diverse attack in Gallia
        When it comes to Gallia Academy, New Richmond's playoff opponent tonight, never mind the old line about not being able to tell the players without a program.

PREVIEWS OF FRIDAY'S KENTUCKY GAMES
Harrison Co. (8-3) at Highlands (10-1)
Newport CC (4-7) at Bellevue (11-0)
Ludlow (6-5) at Beechwood (9-2)
Newport CC (4-7) at Bellevue (11-0)

Beechwood's stingy defense puts foes at loss
        The Beechwood defense's favorite number is zero. Entering tonight's Class A second-round home playoff game against Ludlow, the Tigers (9-2) have shut out seven opponents.

Bellevue boss wants state title before retiring
        To Bellevue's Charlie Coleman, football coach is more than a job title. It's his identity.

Dixie twins not afraid to criticize each other
        Twin brothers Chris and Tom Unkraut insist they aren't as competitive with each other as many believe. That doesn't mean they don't want to win, and if it means occasionally getting into each other's face, so be it.

Highlands' Hamblen does it all
        Just when you think you've seen everything Highlands junior Brett Hamblen can do on a football field, you see something else.

Renewed focus helps Ferguson fuel Holmes
        While the Holmes football team was struggling last year through a 1-9 season, quarterback Brian Ferguson knew his preseason problems might have been a factor.
