Notes:
Dayton lost the key players that took them to the Championship game last year but a strong defense and history is on their side. The defense will lead the Broncos this season and with only 1 losing season in the last 12 years, they know how to win football games in Dayton. Dont expect them to make another run to the championship game but they are the top team in 19-4A and should finsish the season with a 7-3 or 8-2 record.
