Mount Gilead boys win the region, plus more cross country results

PICKERINGTON — Mount Gilead looked every bit the part of the No. 1 team in the state when it waltzed to a Division IV boys cross country regional championship at Pickerington North High School Oct. 31. Top-ranked in the pre-regional state coaches poll for D-IV boys, Mount Gilead dominated the field, scoring just 27 points and placing all seven runners on the all-regional team. Their total was 72 points better than second-place Shenandoah. "We don't know what's going to happen, but on paper we can say it's not going to be a super close race at districts or regionals, but it's getting them to realize it doesn't mean we can take our foot off the gas. It's still dress rehearsal for next week," MG coach Jake Hayes said, adding that he wanted his team to visualize opposing runners pushing them in the second half of the race. "Even if no one is with you, you've got to make people in your head because they're going to be with you next week. "The guys have done a great job of leaning into that and executing race plans and moving along in the second half of the race. We do a lot

Newark City Schools superintendent to step down at start of 2027

Newark City Schools Superintendent David Lewis will step down at the start of 2027 to pursue a new professional opportunity, the district announced. In September, Lewis told district staff that he planned to retire at the end of the 2026-2027 school year, but moved that up to Jan. 1 after accepting an offer in another field, a news release states. The district hired Lewis in June 2020 after he spent seven years as superintendent of Miami Trace Local Schools in Fayette County. “This was not an easy decision, because Newark has meant so much to me,” Lewis said in the release. “I am grateful to our staff, families and Board of Education for seven wonderful years. What makes this district special is its people, and I know Newark Schools will keep building on the momentum we have created together.” During his tenure, the district opened a food pantry to serve students experiencing food insecurity and created the Alternative Academy so students could catch up on credits to remain on track to graduate. Lewis also helped lead the relocation of the preschool program into the former State Farm building . The program was previously across four facilities, and staff said the

Heath football rallies past Fairfield Union in Division IV

LANCASTER - Time was running out on the Heath football team’s senior class on Oct. 30. The Bulldogs were knocked down, but they certainly were not out. Heath erupted in the second half, rallying from a 15-0 deficit to escape with a 22-21 victory at Fairfield Union in a Division IV, Region 15 first-round game. The Bulldogs avenged a 22-3 loss in the first round a year ago. "It's awesome," said senior Camden Stephens’ whose 3-yard touchdown halfback pass to classmate Joe Ward got the Bulldogs on the scoreboard in the third quarter. "We knew we didn't get the outcome we wanted last year, and we were just out for revenge." No. 10 Heath (8-3) visits No. 2 New Lexington (9-1) at 7 p.m. Nov. 6. "We definitely played more together as a team, and we changed a few things on defense (in the second half)," Stephens said. "That touchdown pass I threw, we practice that all of the time. It all came together." Following a 41-yard field goal by senior Camden Montgomery to cut the deficit to 15-10, classmate Tristyn Jones scored on a 21-yard TD run, giving the Bulldogs their first lead at 16-15 with 10:59 left.

Lancaster volleyball falls in district final against Dublin Coffman

WESTERVILLE – Volleyball is a game of momentum, and winning the first set is crucial to a match. Lancaster had all the momentum on its side in the first set against Dublin Coffman during the Central District Division I district championship game on Thursday, Oct. 29. However, the Lady Gales let the advantage slip away and never recovered in a hard-fought 26-24, 25-17, 25-19 loss at Westerville Central High School. In the first set, the Gales had overcome a 20-19 deficit to take a 23-20 lead and looked like they were about to finish things off, but an unforced error gave the Shamrocks a little life they needed, and they outscored the Gales 6-1 to take the all-important first set. From there, Lancaster seemed to be playing on its heels and never got into the rhythm during the next two sets. More: A-C's Caiden Riddle overcomes losing his eye to play golf in college “We just couldn’t finish things off in that first set, and in that situation, you have to be able to handle the pressure,” Lancaster coach Leslie Davenport said. “We didn’t take care of the ball in the front row when we needed to in that first
