The host Oaks dominated Coal Grove 41-14 to win a first-round Division V, Region 19 playoff game Friday night at Davis Stadium before a capacity crowd. The Oaks, now 11-0, will play West Lafayette Ridgewood in a second-round game next Friday night. Ridgewood defeated Minford in its first-round game, 36-10. The location of next week's game will be announced on Sunday and will be at a neutral site.
The Oaks set the tone for the rout by stopping Coal Grove inside the Oaks' 5-yard line after Oak Hill fumbled away the opening kickoff. The Oaks then marched 96 yards for a touchdown on its first possession.
Coal Grove took the lead briefly at 8-7, but the Oaks quickly answered that score to retake the lead and never looked back. The Oaks scored 28 unanswered points to open up a commanding 28-8 in the third quarter.
Tailback Westen Hale ran for three first-half touchdowns for Oak Hill. In the second half, the Oaks padded their lead on a 37-yard TD run by Joey Maynard and two TD passes from quarterback Jesse Slone to split end Kyle Ondera and Maynard.
