Klenke to Miami
Quarterback Cory Klenke is the focal point of Coldwater’s run in defense of its 2007 D-IV state football title. But it’s baseball that the senior will turn to once his football career has ended.
An equally outstanding shortstop, Klenke has verbally committed to playing baseball at Miami University.
Last spring Klenke batted .414, scored 38 runs, had 43 RBI’s and 10 stolen bases. He also had three dingers, 13 doubles and a triple. And he was effective on the mound, going 6-3 with three saves and a 0.98 ERA.

Be-a-believer Beavercreek
Beavercreek has a shot at making the D-I, Region 3 football playoffs despite Centerville, Wayne and Northmont remaining on its regular-season schedule. But that means the Beavers must defeat Fairmont on Friday, Sept. 26, and Springfield, neither of which are sure things.
As for Creek beating Centerville and Wayne, all Creek’s stars must align. The Elks (45-0) and Warriors (28-0) combined to put a 73-0 hurt on the Beavers last season. Creek hasn’t played Northmont in at least 10 years.
The long-running Fairmont-Creek rivalry has been ramped up of late. It didn’t hurt that Beavers coach Scott Clodfelter was a fellow assistant at Fairmont with current head coach Brian Blevins. Think they might want to beat each other?
Beavercreek has beaten Fairmont the last two seasons, 28-21 an 42-28 in ‘06. But the four seasons prior were all Fairmont: 25-22 in double-OT in ‘06; 22-21 in ‘04; 17-10 in ‘03 and 13-12 in ‘02. That’s four wins by 12 points and a couple OTs.
