Middletown-Princeton football game to be televised
Middletown High School Athletic Director Gary Lebo confirmed Wednesday, Sept. 9 that the football teams’ regular season finale at Princeton has been moved to 2 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 31 and will be televised by FOX19.
It will be the second consecutive Saturday game for the Middies, who will play at Colerain on Saturday, Oct. 24, a game which also will be televised by FOX19. The time for the Colerain game has not been set yet due to a possible scheduling conflict with FOX19’s coverage of the World Series.

Cooper on Lakota West’s fast start
Lakota West High’s boys soccer team is off to a sizzling 4-0 start to the 2009 season.
That, in turn, has earned the Firebirds a No. 4 ranking in the first Division I state poll.
“It’s been a good start,” West coach Rick Cooper said. “We’ve played well. The kids have done a really good job. We don’t have a superstar kid. We send out 11 quality kids. We stay organized defensively. The kids have done their jobs. They have all come to embrace what their responsibility is and taken that on and done good things with it.”
The Firebirds have yet to allow a goal this season in wins over Turpin (3-0), Worthington Kilbourne (1-0), Moeller (1-0) and St. Xavier (2-0).
“It’s early,” Cooper said of his club’s state ranking. “If you have success early on in Cincinnati, somebody’s going to get that ranking. It’s about where you are at the end of the year. If we’re ranked high at the end of the year, that’s a good thing. Being ranked high now doesn’t mean a whole lot to us.”
West travels to Middletown on Thursday night, Sept. 10.
