When: 7:30 p.m. today
Where: Heidkamp Stadium, Huber Heights
Radio: WONE-AM (980), WCWT-FM (101.5), WOXR-FM (97.7)
2004 result: Centerville, 35-27
Outlook: Yes, the game will be in Heidkamp. After contemplating a move to bigger Welcome Stadium, Wayne's fans sought to keep the home-field advantage. Big computer points are on the line. A win over Centerville (or at Northmont in Week 9 plus a win over Sidney in any case) could mean a return to the playoffs. The game with the Elks also likely will decide the GWOC East champion. Centerville has the league's best defense (191 yards and 8-point average). The Warriors have the best offense (419 yards and 36-point average). After sitting out last week's win at Fairmont with a shoulder injury, Wayne QB Alex Earley is planning to play. He leads an offense that moves the ball passing (to Billy Viers, Joe Gilford, Dan Snyder and others) and running (Earley, Gilford, Donnie Evege and others). The Elks have dominated defensively and typically use the triple option, field position and special teams to control teams. Last year, the Elks scored four TDs against Wayne after getting the ball deep in the Warriors' territory. Ben Hemenway and Dan Drake have shared the QB spot lately while Jason Combs and James Cravens have picked up tough yards inside. The Elks are in good position to host a D-I, Region 4 playoff spot. After winning at Northmont, a victory at Wayne would solidify the Elks as the area's best team. There's a chance all three teams could make the playoffs and fans may be treated to another matchup involving these teams. Wayne coach Jay Minton is 4-3 against Centerville, winning four straight before the Elks' victory last season. Centerville coach Ron Ullery, who has been on the Elks' staff since the mid-1970s, is 1-4 as a head coach against Wayne
