Will they break their 19-game losing streak?
Could be. Lost that game last year 33-6, same margin as the TW game!Maybe get Marion Harding.
0-0.What is their record vs Newark Catholic? All time.
The NC & 3 Newark feeder schools used to play in a junior high league together in mid 80's-90's along with the 2 Zanesville & 2 Lancaster junior highs. I remember those football games well. That was a great 8 team junior high league for football & basketball.They've never played?? That's unbelievable.
Actually, I started the thread because the only time I do not root for Newark in football is when they play Grove City.Creating a thread about a 19-game-losing-streak team.....

Newark Catholic has played over 700 varsity football games since 1958 and sadly none vs the Newark Wildcats.
Newark & Newark Catholic have played at the Freshman level. I believe I played in the final/last contest in the fall of 1992 at Newark Catholic High School. I scored one of the TDs in a 21-0 Greenwave victory over the Wildcats.
They have not faced off in the 30 years since.
Maybe the Wildcats will eventually join the Licking County League & they could face off at the Varsity level. They have scrimmaged & 7on7 most of the LCL in recent years & play Zanseville every year. I believe it was about 3 years ago NC played Licking Heights the very next week after Newark High did.
It should be stated - Newark High is the premier basketball program in Licking County - and it is not even close. They need to be get credit where credit is due. I also believe Billy Franks & his staff are working hard coaching the boys up.
Best of luck to the Wildcats this year.
No...but I do wish they would at least consider joining the LCL even though theyd run through basketball season. Joining the LCL would be beneficial in all sports. When does scoring an average of 7 points a game and being shut out almost half the season get old?Will they break their 19-game losing streak?
That's nice to see. Could the streak extend to 2 games after Friday ? They are playing 0-2 Marion Harding a team that lost to Mount Vernon who Newark just beat. Should be a close one.Broke the streak!
Jim Mora is holding for you on Line 2Three 2-7 teams made the playoffs in region 3 last year. One 2-7 team did not.
Newark has a shot at the playoffs!
Welp, I was wrongNo...but I do wish they would at least consider joining the LCL even though theyd run through basketball season. Joining the LCL would be beneficial in all sports. When does scoring an average of 7 points a game and being shut out almost half the season get old?
