Ashland University named a 2026 Top Veteran School by magazine

ASHLAND – U.S. Veterans Magazine has recognized Ashland University as a 2026 Top Veteran School. The recognition is reserved for those institutions that create environments where veterans and military-connected individuals can learn, grow and thrive. U.S. Veterans Magazine’s evaluation consisted of five key criteria: veteran resources, academic support, career preparation, flexible options and campus connections, according to the community announcement. AU, which serves more than 400 military-connected students across its undergraduate, graduate and online programs, was among the honorees featured in the magazine in November with a full-page article on the university’s commitment to military-connected students. The article praised Ashland’s “dedicated staff, specialized facilities and year-round programming (that) give veterans, service members and their families places to find answers—and each other.” The Jack W. Liebert Military & Veteran Resource Center, established in 2020, provides services and gathering space for Ashland University’s military-connected students. Staff members help students transition to college, while the center includes areas for studying and socializing. AU also hosts military- and veteran-focused events, including the Battle of the Branches, ruck marches, R.E.D. (Remember Everyone Deployed) Fridays and the Flights of Honor: 9/11 Remembrance Challenge. The article also highlighted the USA House, “a dedicated on-campus residence for military-connected

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
