Special teams loomed large in Sheridan football's playoff loss

COLUMBUS — A script-like night for football was "special" for Michael Thompson-Ayers and the rest of the East Tiger return men. Quite literally, it was their performance on special teams in their Division III, Region 11 quarterfinal matchup with visiting Sheridan that made this night memorable. Thompson-Ayers' 65-yard kickoff return for a touchdown was East's second long return of the half — Dominique Edwards had a 55-yarder on the opening kickoff — that impacted the game so much that visiting Sheridan didn't even kick their way until the final minute of the second half. It was the key factor in the third-seeded Tigers' 42-28 win before a festive crowd on Nov. 6 at Harley Field. East, which lost in the Division IV quarterfinals in 2025, advanced to face unbeaten Licking Valley at 7 p.m. on Nov. 13 at Randy Baughman Stadium.

Chillicothe can't contain Miami Trace's Julian Baker in Week 12 loss

CHILLICOTHE — When Chillicothe’s football program reconvenes in the middle of this coming summer, the Cavaliers will have plenty to build upon — and plenty to prove. Chillicothe saw its season end with a 35-14 loss to Miami Trace on Friday, Nov. 6, in a Division III, Region 12 quarterfinal at Herrnstein Field. But the end of the road doesn’t negate an 8-3 overall record, a home playoff game, and another layer of brick added to the program’s now-firm foundation. “My message to the kids was not to hang their heads,” Chillicothe coach TJ Carper said. “This is just the start of the future of this program. You look back at this season and it’s one of the best seasons that Chillicothe has had in a long time. I’m proud of our guys, I love them and I’m here for them. I think they’re going to apply the success they’ve had to everything else they do in life.” HS FOOTBALL: Mechanicsburg ground game ends Zane Trace season After coming into the contest with hopes of getting past Miami Trace and into Week 13, Panthers running back Julian Baker quickly made it clear that it wasn’t going to happen.
