Bulldogs bow out of playoffs in shutout loss to Dover

THE PLAINS — Athens did enough in the regular season to earn a first-round bye, but the extended break didn’t translate into a win. The Bulldogs (9-2) wrapped up their 2026 campaign on Friday, falling 41-0 at home to the No. 5-seeded Dover Crimson Tornadoes (10-2). Athens, the No. 4 seed in Division III’s Region 11 bracket, got jumped on early and never recovered as Dover delivered a crushing, season-ending defeat. The Crimson Tornadoes were led by a dominant night from quarterback Dieter Weber, who threw for over 250 yards and four touchdowns in the win. Dover scored five touchdowns in the first half, forcing the running clock rule for the whole second half. Weber connected with Cooper Connare for two touchdowns, and also threw scores to Dailey Rowdy and Brady Hale. Cohen Murray and Dante Clark added rushing touchdowns. It was a night of missed opportunity for the Bulldog offense, playing an aggressive style while behind. The Bulldogs opened with a four-and-out, which Dover made them pay for with a 34-yard catch-and-run by Connare for a touchdown. Murray’s run made it 14-0 later in the first, and the Bulldogs failed to field a short kickoff, giving the ball right

New Philadelphia Considers Next Steps After Park Levy Failure

New Philadelphia Mayor Joel Day says tough financial decisions lie ahead for the city following voters’ rejection of a proposed parks and recreation levy last week. The five-year, 2.4-mill levy would have generated about $1.3 million annually for park maintenance and improvements, while freeing up General Fund money for other city needs, including street paving and police and fire services.

Alliance Circle honors Art Garnes at annual meeting

The 2026 Alliance Circle Reunion was a gilded gathering. Amid the custom convivial conversation, it was with heavy hearts that the Wranglers, Filibusters and Questors convened for the annual meeting for a meal, some enlightening entertainment, and the presentation of an award to pay tribute to one among them. Following dinner, the 39 in attendance enjoyed a talk about the era in which the original Alliance Circle was formed, one marked by a stark divide between staggering wealth and bitter poverty, when one America glittered with unprecedented prosperity and another silently endured with grit. As presenter Sid Zufall pointed out, Mark Twain coined it as the Gilded Age – not golden – for a reason. Zufall explained that to gild something is merely to cover it in a thin layer of gold. It might glitter on the surface, but scratch away that gold, and the rough metal beneath is revealed. The 5 th annual Alliance Circle Reunion had that illusory quality in atmosphere, for the chair of the man that they were there to recognize sat empty. Art Garnes died just 20 days before, and his memorial service was planned for that weekend. However, everyone within the room at Alliance
