Setting the Scene: In a rare twist, the Milford Eagles will host conference and township rival Loveland in a non-conference match-up this Friday night. The meeting between the Eagles and Tigers will be the first of two in a three-week span and came as a result of a scheduling quirk tied to the expansion of the Eastern Cincinnati Conference next season. Milford is coming off a dramatic 27-26 win over Dayton Dunbar, while Loveland fell in Week 2 to Lebanon, 50-20.
