Talawanda Football

We checked in with @TalawandaFB head coach @HeirloomFraming previewing Week Eight in the @Skyline_Chili Crosstown Showdown presented by @mercy_health Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine as the Brave take on the @HarrisonFootba1 Wildcats. Coach Stuckert has led Talawanda to a 16-3 record since the start of last season necessitating billboard signage on US 27 on the way to Oxford.

Rehage, Stuckert Have Their Teams Primed Again It should come as no surprise that @drehage38 of @HarrisonFootba1 and @TalawandaFB @HeirloomFraming have their respective programs again headed for the @swocsports championship game and a potential lengthy postseason run. Harrison (6-1, 1-0 in SWOC) hosts Talawanda (6-1, 1-0) at 7 p.m. Friday in the @Skyline_Chili Crosstown Showdown presented by @mercy_health Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine, which provides athletic training and sports medicine services to Harrison High School. Both coaches have their programs rolling the last few years. Harrison, under Rehage, has won nine or more games each of the last three seasons and, including this year, is 34-12 over that span. The Wildcats have won three straight SWOC titles and currently own a 10-game conference winning streak. Harrison, which finished 11-2 in Rehage’s second season in 2019, is No. 3 in the Division II, Region 8 Harbin computer ratings used to qualify teams for the postseason. The top four finishers in each region earn a first-round bye in the state playoffs. Talawanda, in the fourth season under Stuckert, is 16-3 since the start of last season. That includes a 9-1 regular season finish in 2025 and a first-round playoff win. The Brave won a combined six games the previous three years before Stuckert took over. Harrison’s only setback this year is to 6-1 East Central, 24-21, in week five. East Central is ranked No. 1 in Indiana Class 4A. Talawanda’s lone setback was that same Friday night, when the Brave fell to rival Ross, 14-7.
