McKinley football has unfinished business with Mentor in playoff showdown

Unfinished business awaits the Canton McKinley High School football team in Mentor. And this business is long overdue for the Bulldogs . No. 7 seed McKinley travels to Jerome T. Osborne Senior Stadium to face No. 3 seed Mentor in a regional semifinal on Friday, Nov. 13. It's a rematch from last year . Same place. Same level. Watch Ohio High School Football Live on NFHS Network all year The Cardinals won last year's Division I, Region 1 third-round game in the most dramatic fashion, scoring a touchdown and converting a 2-point try with 20 seconds left to stun the Bulldogs 25-24. Mentor has served as the Grim Reaper for McKinley seasons, beating the Bulldogs in the playoffs each of the previous two years and five of the past eight. To second-year McKinley coach Renzy Parnell, Friday's game isn't about getting over some kind of mental hurdle against the Cardinals. "I don't hear it from our kids," Parnell said. "I don't sense it from our team. What I sense is last year. It's all about, hey, they stopped us last year. We've got to get this one back." McKinley returns many players from that game, including Kyelin West, who ran

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

Ravenna prepares new ward boundaries for 1st time since 1972

For the first time in more than 50 years, Ravenna residents may have to consult a map to find out who represents them on City Council. The city, which has had the same ward boundaries since 1972, is redrawing the four districts to get a better balance of residents in each. The process began in March, when a national consultant told Ravenna City Council its ward boundaries were out of balance. The new lines are to be official by the end of December, in time for 2027 municipal elections that will include council representatives for two of the wards. A public hearing will take place Nov. 23 to consider the new map. Council, which approved a first reading of an ordinance approving the new map, will conduct a special meeting after the public hearing, with another reading expected Dec. 7. The ordinance will be voted on as emergency legislation to get around the 30-day waiting period normally required, said Carmen Laudato, the at-large council member who has been leading the redistricting effort. "If people are going to be running for council, they'll want to make sure that the wards they would serve are the wards they actually live in," Laudato

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
