Matt Parker's Ohio High School Football Game of the Week: Winton Woods at Anderson

COLUMBUS — There were a couple of different options for this week’s Ohio high school game of the week. Both options were in Cincinnati, funny enough.
No. 12 Winton Woods heads to No. 7 Anderson on Friday, Oct. 18 and the two programs sit atop of the Eastern Cincinnati Conference Standings. A couple of brief notes from Lettermen Row on each team heading into Friday’s contest.
Winton Woods Warriors (8-0)
Avg points per game: 29.8.
Avg points allowed per game: 4.3.
Number of shutouts: Three.
Opponents’ combined record through eight games: 26-38.
Notable prospects: 2025 four-star EDGE Justin Hill. He is the No. 53 overall prospect and the No. 5 EDGE in the On3 Industry Rankings. Hill committed to Alabama over Ohio State on July 3 ahead of his senior season. 2025 athlete Seonta Stewart (Indiana commit), 2025 IOL Ralph Greene (Toledo commit) 2025 EDGE KJ Brown (Bowling Green commit) and 2027 running back Isaiah Garrett.
Anderson Raptors (8-0)
Avg. points per game: 51
Avg. points allowed per game: 5.75
Number of shutouts: Two
Opponents’ combined record through eight games: 29-35
Notable prospects: 2027 three-star EDGE Antwoine Higgins. The 6-foot-3, 202-pound defensive nightmare could be one of the best in Ohio at his position in his recruiting cycle. Ohio State is paying attention to his sophomore film. 2025 three-star tight end and UCF commit Caden Piening. 2027 cornerback Ashton Alston.

Massey Score Prediction
Current Playoff Projections
Anderson is the current No. 1 seed in Division II, Region 8 according to Joe Eitel.
Winton Woods is the current No. 2 seed in Division I, Region 4. The Warriors trail only No. 1 Archbishop Moeller for that top seed.
Final Thought
Given the score prediction by Massey Ratings, Justin Hill is going to have to come big for Winton Woods like he has all season long. He’s had a dominant senior campaign and will look to continue that on Friday.
