PORTSMOUTH — With Tuesday’s 73-31 win over New Boston, the Notre Dame Titans (7-2, 4-0 SOC I) remain tied atop the Southern Ohio Conference Division I standings.
ND is tied atop the league standings with Green (7-3, 4-0 SOC I) who they’ll travel to face in Franklin Furnace on Friday.
In their 42-point victory over the Tigers, the Titans won every quarter — the closest being a 14-13 edge in the second period to take a 31-17 lead into halftime.

The Titans put three scorers in double figures, including junior Cody Metzler, who led all scorers with 26 points on 11 field goals and three-of-three foul shooting.

New Boston junior Devin Allard led the Tigers with a team-high 11 points.
