Hilliard Davidson kicker J.D. Detmer celebrates after booting one of his three field goals in the Wildcats' 17-7 regional semifinal win over Pickerington Central. Detmer kicked field goals of 31, 46 and 39 yards in the victory. Davidson will attempt to avenge its only loss of the season in the regional championship game at 7 p.m. Saturday at Upper Arlington against rival Dublin Coffman. The Shamrocks defeated the Wildcats 10-7 earlier this season.
The Hilliard Davidson High School football team has earned the opportunity to avenge its only loss of the season and claim the Ohio High School Athletic Association Division I, Region 3 championship.

The winner will advance to a state semifinal on Nov. 28. In addition to the regional title shot, the rematch with Coffman (12-0) gives the 10-1 Wildcats an opportunity to avenge their only loss of the season, a 10-7 decision at the hands of the Shamrocks on Oct. 16. Pre-sale tickets for the game will be on sale in the athletic office Thursday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. (all day and during parent/teacher conferences), Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Pre-sale tickets cost $7.
