Moeller Edges St. Edward in Ohio D-I Classic
The Crusaders defense holds in the fourth quarter to win a rivalry that decides the Greater Catholic League.
Archbishop Moeller defense stood tall in the fourth quarter to edge rival St. Edward 17-14 on Friday night, claiming the Greater Catholic League South title and the inside track to an Ohio Division I playoff berth.
Linebacker Devon Bryant led Moeller with 14 tackles and a sack, and edge rusher Kenji Watanabe added two sacks. St. Edward drove to the Moeller 12-yard line in the final minute but a false start and a sack ended the threat.
"This is what you grow up dreaming about," Bryant said.
Moeller improved to 9-3 and will host a regional semifinal next week.
