Bowling Green wins program-1st state title at Ohio state cross country meet

OBETZ, Ohio — A trip to the OHSAA boys cross country championships provided a breakthrough moment for the Bowling Green program, which captured its first-ever state title on Saturday. In Division II, one point separated Bowling Green (181) from second-place Lexington (182). Paced by Lloyd Waldron (15:58.0), Rece Simon (15:59.7), and Sam Wiles (16:00.02), the Bobcats’ top three finished 25th, 26th, and 27th. “We knew we were going to be ranked first, and that we had a very good chance, since we got second last year,” Waldron said. “Knowing we looked at the coaches' poll every week, the rankings every week, we’ve known that we’re going to be a contender, but it always came down to today and this time. It’s the passion that we have for the sport, and how much we love running as a pack and staying together as an elite group.” Waldron, Simon, and Wiles have been staples for the Bobcats. Each earned first-team selections in the Northern Lakes League Cardinal Division and played a part in delivering a fourth straight league title, along with the state championship. The championship saw Bowling Green overthrow Lexington, which was in pursuit of its fourth state title in 11

Toledo women's rally falls short against Michigan State before big crowd at Savage Arena

With a Big Ten opponent and a big crowd, the stage was set for a big afternoon Saturday at Savage Arena. Michigan State had other ideas. A fast Toledo start and a spirited late rally weren't quite enough as the Rockets came up short, 72-64, before a crowd of 4,543. UT (0-2) ultimately had few answers for Michigan State star guard Kennedy Blair, who had a game-high 28 points and 11 rebounds to help the Spartans (2-0) build an 18-point lead in the third quarter and hold off a late push by the hosts. Jyah LoVett led Toledo with 16 points; Kendall Carruthers and Evalyse Cole added 14 and 12 points, respectively. “Thank you to everyone who came out today,” Toledo coach Ginny Boggess said. “An incredible crowd for a very good opponent. We thank Robyn [Fralick] and her team for coming down. Not a lot of people want to play at Savage. It was a hard-fought battle. We’ve got to fix the obvious things: fouling, turnovers … but a really good fight. We prepared like we always do to fight to defend the home court, and we just fell a little short.” Fralick — who spent five successful seasons
