CYO football schedule: Can St. Charles repeat?
By Ron Busch
FORT WAYNE — Last season, St. Charles dominated Catholic Youth Organization football news in Fort Wayne and also at the diocesan championship held at the University of St. Francis’ Bishop D’Arcy Stadium. The St. Charles team won the championship 40-6 over South Bend St. Anthony. The consolation matchup favored Fort Wayne as well, as St. Vincent defeated Mishawaka Catholic 24-0.
The 2016 versions of St. Charles and St. Vincent do battle this year in week three of the upcoming season. This promises to be one of many interesting matchups in the fall. The two battled in the 2015 Fort Wayne CYO tournament at the grades seven and eight finale, as well as in the finale of the grades five and six tourney.
Look for other Fort Wayne teams to make this an exciting CYO season. The 2016 schedules appear at right.
