Norwayne uses second half scoring bonanza to top Mansfield Christian

ASHLAND - Two years ago Peyton Zollinger and his Norwayne teammates got a taste of regional tournament action losing in a shootout to Beachwood in the semifinals. The Bobcats found themselves back in a regional semifinal Wednesday, Nov. 4 at Ashland Community Stadium, against Mansfield Christian and made program history in a 5-1 win advancing to their first regional championship. "We have worked for this for four years," Zollinger said. "I dressed as a sophomore when we lost in regional semifinals ... this year we're graduating a lot of seniors, so it was the year." DIVISION III: Mansfield Senior unlucky in regional semifinal loss In miserable conditions with sideways steady rain and intermittent downpours, the Bobcats controlled the first half but could not break down the Flames' defense. And just before halftime, it was Mansfield Christian who found a breakthrough on a lobbed through ball that skipped on the turf and over the defense where Jacoby Dickinson was able to latch onto it and slot past Norwayne's Garrett Ponting with 41 seconds to go in the half. "We spent too long settling into the game," Mansfield Christian coach Kaedon Anderson said. "When we did, we started playing our style of

Saint Ignatius Takes First Step to Canton

OHIO CITY, OH - This past Friday, the Saint Ignatius Wildcats (6-5) were at Wasmer Field for the fourth and final time this season, as they took on the Berea-Midpark Titans (6-5) in the 8 vs. 9 matchup in round one of the OHSAA playoffs, with the winner set to face the St. Edward Eagles (9-1) in round two.

Meanwhile, Berea-Midpark was looking to get back in the win column after suffering a tough 31-27 defeat to Avon Lake a week prior, a game in which they blew a 21-10 lead in the third quarter. After a 4-1 start and 4 straight wins, Berea-Midpark went 2-3 in their last five games, finishing the regular season 6-4 and 4-3 in conference play. This game was the first-ever meeting between Berea-Midpark and St. Ignatius, and it was also the first-ever football playoff game hosted at Wasmer Field.

Massillon's Brayton, Brydon Feister remain eligible for OHSAA playoffs

(This story has been updated to include new information.) The Ohio Supreme Court has effectively assured the eligibility of Massillon football players Brayton and Brydon Feister. On Nov. 5, the high court dismissed an Ohio High School Athletic Association complaint against three 5th District Court of Appeals judges. Association attorney Joseph Fraley sought to overturn an appeals court action which had restored eligibility to the brothers. "We are pleased that the Ohio Supreme Court recognized the importance of student athletes to continue to participate in a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," said Canton attorney Lee Plakas, who represents the Feisters. OHSAA attorney Joseph Fraley, of Westerville, had hoped for the best but prepared for the worst. "We knew it was a bit of a procedural longshot," he said. The Tigers host Columbus St. Francis DeSales in a Division II, Region 7 quarterfinal at 7 p.m. Nov. 6 at Paul Brown Tiger Stadium. Feister brothers court fight The 5th District had granted an emergency order on Oct. 16, making the Feister brothers eligible for the rest of the season. The OHSAA had asked the Supreme Court to nullify that order. Fraley had argued the appeals court lacked the authority for such action, because a

Portage County voters are considering renewal levies, a tax to build a new school, and in one case, a renewal levy that would build a school. The Aurora School District is seeking Issue 4, a 4.26-mill, 37-year bond issue to raise a $96.2 million bond to pay for various capital improvement projects, including the replacement of an elementary school. According to complete but unofficial results from the Portage County Board of Elections, the issue was approved, 5,002 to 4,117.
