Blade poll stays the same at the top

The top spots in the Blade poll remained the same after Week 8 as Springfield, Central Catholic, and Patrick Henry each won. Central Catholic had one of the biggest wins of the weekend in the area, using its defense to down Findlay on the road by a 28-7 final in a key TRAC matchup. The win was the 26th conference victory in a row for the Irish, who lead the Division III-IV poll.
