Last week: Hawken def. Rhodes, 42-0, Berkshire def. Cuyahoga Heights, 26-15 For the record: Berkshire leads the all-time series, 13-11, but Hawken took last year’s battle in a 35-27 offensive slugfest. … Berkshire controlled the line of scrimmage in last week’s win over Cuyahoga Heights, with Owen Miller runing for 139 yards and first-year starting quarterback Sam Barcikoski rushing for 67 yards, passing for 47 and accounting for three scores (two rushing, one passing).
