Coach Warden states,  The playoff experience created much excitement among our community and school. The players at Loveland realize their success is rooted in their commitment to the BFS program and firmly believe it will allow them to continue to excel on the field and off. This goal could have never been reached without Coach Brown s guidance and our player s commitment to the BFS Program. <br>Unfortunately, Loveland was defeated the next week in a very close Region semifinal game with Piqua. Piqua plays a very physical style of Ohio football and went on to play in the Ohio Division II Championship game. The Tigers goal in the off-season is to prepare to win their league championship and return to the Ohio playoffs and compete for the Division II state championship. In order to achieve this goal the players of Loveland are currently working to redouble their efforts to meet the expectations set by the graduating seniors. Coach Warden states,  The BFS program will be our launching pad to achieving our goals for next season and beyond. ->=^f{ WʺvOEQ?S=\J$39:}[1ƒ4`5JI#FIv9j3![Xltq֥*kC0*sGfR{TR9>+d her. Senior Linebacker John Hake, brought his team together emotionally and mentally.  He is the heart and soul of our team, exhorted Coach Culwell.  He always stood up as a leader and gave a heart-touching motivational pep talk before each game. That little extra inspiration helped each player reach deep down inside for strength when times got tough. <br>Concordia had learned from their losses and were ready to battle together as a team and win. The Panthers stunned the defending State Champion, Topeka Hayden, with a 27-14 victory in the 4-A bi-district game. Tailback, Josh Williams, despite playing with a broken bone in his right hand, carried the ball 34 times for 254 yards. Culwell praised,  That was a great effort. He is a true warrior. Next came a big game against unbeaten 10-0 Kingman. The Panthers demolished them easily with a 16-0 shutout victory. This advanced them into the semi-finals of the State Playoffs for the first time in history. Things were getting heated up and the Panthers were on a roll. They barely beat Wellington 16-14 for a shot to play for state crown. <br>The State Championship game against 12-0 undefeated Holton, was Concordia's final test to see if they had what it took to wear the number one crown in the state. They faced number one ranked Holton who had outscored its three opponents in the playoffs earlier this season with a combined score of 128-20. Senior linebacker/fullback, John Hake reports,  I think that is one of our greatest weapons. We don't ever get intimidated. The Panthers played with fury. Dreams and goals were turnouts for the games. The athletic director from Seneca, a playoff opponent, noted how the Hawks fans had turned his stadium into an Oregon home game and claimed Oregon s football program to be one of the classiest he had ever seen. The Oregon staff, players, and fans truly mde it  great to be an Oregon Hawk. <br><br><br><br>" <br><br>The athletic director from Seneca, a playoff opponent, noted howthe Hawks fans had turned his stadium into an Oregon home game and claimed Oregon s football program to be one of the classiest he had ever seen.
