Chippewa come close, falls to Ottawa Hills in OHSAA Division V state finals
COLUMBUS — In the post match press conference after its OHSAA Division V state championship defeat on Friday, Nov. 13, at ScottsMiracle-Gro Field in Columbus, Chippewa head coach Ruth Coney sat next to her three senior players — forward Delaney Marshall and center backs Paityn Welty and Myra Lewis. Before she was able to speak, the emotion on her face was noticeable and it was tough for her to get the words out. "It's a hard thing to talk about when you just lost a state championship game," Coney said. No arguments there. Chasing that elusive first girls soccer state championship in school history, Chippewa (21-1-1) suffered its first loss of the season 2-1 to Toledo Ottawa Hills (18-3-2) in what became an ambitious second half of play from both teams.

Flight stoppage causes delays, disruptions for Akron-Canton travelers
GREEN − The nationwide air travel stoppage on Nov. 13 disrupted the travel plans of hundreds of passengers at Akron-Canton Airport. At 6 p.m., about two hours after the ground stop began, passengers who had given up on departing were seated by the ticketing and bag drop area and were awaiting rides home. The airlines returned checked luggage to passengers. The Federal Aviation Administration later lifted the ground stop at 8:15 p.m., but the damage to many travelers' itinerary was done. Grant Gainer, 24, of Green, was supposed to be on American Airlines' 5:12 p.m. flight to Charlotte. Initially, the airline announced a delay. Then family members and friends of passengers began texting them the news about the nationwide ground stop. Agents announced that the flight might not depart until 1 a.m. or 3 a.m. "I'm like, I'm not doing that when I have to be awake for the game," said Gainer, who played on the state OSHAA Division II championship Archbishop Hoban High School football team. Gainer used the airline's app to rebook himself to depart on American Airlines' 6:22 a.m. flight Nov. 14 to Chicago O'Hare airport. His final destination is Oklahoma City where he's set to watch
