Xenia cheerleaders fire up the crowd during the first home game of the season on Friday against West Carrollton.

The Xenia student section had a construction theme, but no one seemed to want to help out with the ongoing renovation project at Doug Adams Stadium.

Xenia recognized many of its football alumni from the past 60 years who were present prior to the game.

Senior Gavin McManus fires a pass while rolling out from the pocket early in Friday’s game. McManus only played the first half and finished 10 of 12 passing for 175 yards with three touchdowns.

Leaping high to pull down an interception was senior Trimonde Henry (20)

Junior Cecil Piner (33) slams into the West Carrollton ball carrier with enough force to knock off his helmet.

Trimonde Henry (20) finds space down the sideline for a long punt return for a touchdown.

Senior Ronnie Butler (10) intercepted a pass early in the third quarter and returned it for a touchdown.

It’s easy to smile for Xenia senior MaKayli Marinelli after winning $50 in a football throwing contest.
