Muncie Central football stuns Logansport for IHSAA sectional title

MUNCIE — In a game filled with big plays, Muncie Central football needed one more. Doiron Montgomery was the one who made it. With Logansport facing a four-point deficit and driving down the field with less than a minute left in the fourth quarter, the Bearcats' defense needed one more stop. With 16 seconds left on the clock, Logansport quarterback Kuper Jones dropped back, looked deep and launched the ball downfield towards receiver Quincy Jackson. Montgomery soared into the air, got both hands on the ball and juggled it once before pulling down the game-sealing interception. The Bearcats' senior safety dropped to a knee, and the celebration was on. "It was really, 'Do you want to win?'" Montgomery said. "Do you want to win in this moment? I wanted to win. I want to keep going, don't want my season to end." Muncie Central took down previously undefeated Logansport, 31-27, in the Class 4A Sectional 20 title game on Friday, Nov. 6, avenging last year's sectional semifinal loss to the Berries and clinching the Bearcats' first football sectional championship in 20 years. It was a back-and-forth shootout with plenty of big plays to go around for both offenses, but in

School health programs are crucial for children | Opinion

The American School Health Association recently contacted me for possible involvement in their October centennial national conference held in Indianapolis.
