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.

Crestwood, Garfield runners take over podium at OHSAA state cross country
OBETZ — Madie Grace Gonczy and Piper Seibold crossed the finish line together one more time. Of course they did. Running side by side for a good chunk of their careers, the Crestwood seniors did it one last time in their final high school cross country race, finishing less than a second apart in the Division III state championship race. "Honestly, it was a goal going into this to finish together because it is our last race together, so we just wanted to push each other as best we could," said Seibold, who finished 21st in 18:58.2. "We were talking about it before the race, like, just stay with each other because we wanted to finish together because we're never going to get this opportunity again." Both made major jumps, with Seibold surging a minute from last year's state time (19:58.44) and Gonczy improving more than 40 seconds (from 19:43.89 to 18:57.6) to finish 20th. It was a fitting close to Gonczy's healthiest season yet. "I try to work on my nutrition, make sure I was fueling properly before and after practice, before races and then also just with my injuries, making sure I'm stretching before practice, after practice, before
