The Pirates lost first two sets by a combined five points, and the Bulldogs completed the sweep with a 25-22, 25-23, 25-17. "We've talked about winning key moments," head coach Jessica Schwartz said. "We felt really good coming tonight, but it just didn't go out way tonight." With the victory, Dalton extends its winning streak to 11 games and has swept 10 opponents during that time. Make your pick! Time to vote for The Times-Reporter Athletes of the Week (Nov. 2-8) For Schwartz, the Bulldogs played at a faster pace when they had the ball. "That's a style of play that we just have a really hard time against," she said. When the Pirates front row was able to gets hands on the Dalton kill attempts, that's when their defense had the most success. "We were able to slow them down with blocks," she said.

Rootstown boys soccer state semifinal vs Norwayne High School

TWINSBURG — Rootstown's boys soccer state debut got off to a tough start. Norwayne controlled the start, setting the tone with two goals in the first 19 minutes, then added a goal right before and another after the intermission. How would the Rovers, who led virtually the entire postseason until then, respond? Rootstown responded with 35 minutes of inspired soccer to close its historic season, ultimately falling 5-2 to Norwayne in a Division V state semifinal Nov. 11. "You can't find a better class of kids that put the work ethic in and all that," Rovers coach Charlie Voth said. "They really worked hard." The Rovers' rally included a goal apiece from seniors Zach Pastor and Bryson Scarlett. Pastor's goal put him at 107 for his career, extending his Portage County record. "If I had a chance to take it back for the win, I would do it in a heartbeat," Pastor said. "It still means a lot being number one, but I would put it all away for this class and moving to the state championship." It was a record-breaking season for Rootstown (17-3-2) in multiple ways, as the program broke through for its first regional championship with a

Walsh tops Hoban; Highland advances

GREATER AKRON — Week two of the high school football playoffs are in the books with only two area teams advancing to semifinal games. The second meeting between Walsh Jesuit and Hoban was a little different compared to the first when Hoban beat Walsh 30-0 during the regular season. Out for revenge, Walsh Jesuit knocked Hoban out of the playoffs for the second year in a row. Walsh’s Kinzy Shea was 8-of-11 passing for 111 yards in the game, and Cam Brunson had five catches for 82 yards. Oliver Nonno also made field goals of 44 and 28 yards. It was Walsh’s defense that capitalized as Nathan Allen, Ben Biel, Xavier Steele and Drew Wollschleger all intercepted passes from Hoban quarterback Major Cribbs, who finished 10-of-26 passing for 130 yards and a touchdown. Hoban finishes the season 4-7, and Walsh Jesuit advances to play Nordonia at home in the Division II Region 5 semifinal game.
