By Staff Report-

COLUMBIA CITY - The Columbia City Eagles pulled off a surprise win over Whitko, ranked No. 5 in the coaches poll on Friday night. Columbia City won a 33-12 shocker behind two touchdown performances from Josh Monesmith and Marshall Keith.

Whitko defeated the Eagles in each of the last two years, but it was not meant to be this year.

After Jimmy Linn scampered for a three-yard touchdown, Columbia City came back with four straight scores, including an 88 yard kickoff return by Monesmith to blow the game open.

Whitko (1-1) will be at Southwood, the defending TRC champions, on Friday at 7:30 p.m. [[In-content Ad]]
