Middletown rallied from a 10-point, fourth-quarter deficit to beat Sycamore 28-24 on Homecoming at Barnitz Stadium.

Kellen Davis threw two touchdown passes and rushed for another to pace the Middies, who moved to 2-4 overall and 1-4 in the Greater Miami Conference.

Trailing 24-14, Middletown got within a field goal on a 15-yard touchdown run by Lemond Chambers.

Davis tossed a TD pass to DeMarco Powell and the quarterback also rushed for a 3-yard score.

Next up for Middletown is trip to Colerain next Friday night.

Sycamore (0-6, 0-5) hosts Lakota East next Friday.
