First roundabout in Massillon opens to traffic, see drone photos
MASSILLON – The city's first roundabout is slated to open Nov. 13 to motorists who travel a main section of the west side. The $1.16 million circle is at Main Avenue W at Tremont Avenue SW. Work started in April and finished this week. A redo of Main Avenue and Tremont Avenue intersection was necessary because the two roads run nearly parallel to each other. They come together at a sharp point near the former Third Base bar property, which had a triangular shape. Third Base was demolished a few years ago to make space for the project . "We think the roundabout should improve the flow of traffic in the area and is a boost to (driver) safety," said Mayor Jamie Slutz . The new roundabout is surrounded by multiple pedestrian sidewalks, decorative bricks, as well as rock-filled center isle. City Engineer Alex Pitts said the center island will be upgraded with three flagpoles. One will hoist the U.S. flag, and the others are for the state of Ohio and Massillon flags. The intersection at Tremont and Main avenues average approximately 3,000 motorists per day, according to Pitts, who said the circle's speed limit is 25 mph. Most of

Bulldogs bow out of playoffs in shutout loss to Dover
THE PLAINS — Athens did enough in the regular season to earn a first-round bye, but the extended break didn’t translate into a win. The Bulldogs (9-2) wrapped up their 2026 campaign on Friday, falling 41-0 at home to the No. 5-seeded Dover Crimson Tornadoes (10-2). Athens, the No. 4 seed in Division III’s Region 11 bracket, got jumped on early and never recovered as Dover delivered a crushing, season-ending defeat. The Crimson Tornadoes were led by a dominant night from quarterback Dieter Weber, who threw for over 250 yards and four touchdowns in the win. Dover scored five touchdowns in the first half, forcing the running clock rule for the whole second half. Weber connected with Cooper Connare for two touchdowns, and also threw scores to Dailey Rowdy and Brady Hale. Cohen Murray and Dante Clark added rushing touchdowns. It was a night of missed opportunity for the Bulldog offense, playing an aggressive style while behind. The Bulldogs opened with a four-and-out, which Dover made them pay for with a 34-yard catch-and-run by Connare for a touchdown. Murray’s run made it 14-0 later in the first, and the Bulldogs failed to field a short kickoff, giving the ball right
