Tiffin Columbian at Chardon football: Preview capsule for Aug. 30 game
Last week: Chardon def. Timber Creek, Fla., 29-7, Tiffin Columbian def. Fremont Ross, 27-11 For the record: This was a donnybrook last year, with the Tornadoes hanging a 50-49 win on the Hilltoppers in a game that featured a regional finalist (Columbian) and state semifinalist (Chardon), teams that both had their seasons end at the hand of eventual Division III state champion Toledo Central Catholic. … Chardon’s ground game controlled the tempo last week in Orlando, Fla. Drayton Allgood and Vinny Colombi both ran for more than 100 yards, with Colombi scoring all four of his team’s touchdowns. The defense was equally as stingy, giving up only one score. It’ll be interesting to see if Tiffin Columbian punts or kicks to Chardon’s Caleb Hewitt, a game-changer in the return game last week. .. Columbian trailed last week, 11-6, at the half, but scored three second-half touchdowns to defeat the Little Giants. The Tornadoes’ backfield tandem of Brady Bonnell and Masen Seitz combined for 194 yards on the ground, while QB Zach Shawberry hit Johnny Bremyer for a third-quarter score. … It’s safe to say both teams will look to slow down the opposition’s run game first and foremost.
