LIMA — Only a freshman, Shaun Thomas had speed for which Wynford had no answer Saturday night.

BUCYRUS — Despite being plagued by penalties, Upper Sandusky’s sideline still was able to jump for joy thanks in part to a large defensive stop late to help secure a 20-14 win against Northern 10 rival Bucyrus. Rams linebacker Nate McMillan broke up a potential game-tying fourth-and-long pass from Redmen quarterback Ben Seibert to wide receiver Harley Robinson in the end zone on the game’s final play, helping the Rams (2-5, 2-2 N10) secure their second win.

BOWLING GREEN — Thursday’s Division III district round at Stone Ridge Golf Club was doubly sweet for Riverdale freshman Andrew Kuenzli. The first-year varsity golfer sank a rare hole-in-one on No. 8, and it helped him slide into an individual state qualification. Kuenzli shot 37 on the front nine and 41 on the back.

FINDLAY — Brett Montgomery was steady Thursday during the Division II district golf tournament at Red Hawk Run Golf Course near Findlay. Montgomery had five birdies and — maybe even more impressive — no double-bogeys on a course that caused trouble for practically every other player.
