Dayton City League returning to the old days

A conference that produced NFL stars and college football all-americans has fallen off the radar and has been a laugher when there teams show up on schedules. The once highly prestigious league has lost its luster from kids leaving for the suburbs, but in recent years the conference has begun to improve. Currently the teams are a combined 10-5, with Belmont at 3-0 and Thurgood Marshall, Dunbar, and Ponitz are all 2-1. The speed is begining to stay in the city and has seen Thurgood Marshall become an impressive contender in the playoffs. With the fast growing Ponitz Panthers who have improved season by season continues to rise in enrollment numbers. With a Belmont team who has been very undervalued in the 2000's starting 3-0 makes for alot of excitment in Bison country. Although they may never get back to the level the City league once was, seeing the kind of football there playing now show people now adays a glimpse as to what the past was like
