McKinley football has unfinished business with Mentor in playoff showdown

Unfinished business awaits the Canton McKinley High School football team in Mentor. And this business is long overdue for the Bulldogs . No. 7 seed McKinley travels to Jerome T. Osborne Senior Stadium to face No. 3 seed Mentor in a regional semifinal on Friday, Nov. 13. It's a rematch from last year . Same place. Same level. Watch Ohio High School Football Live on NFHS Network all year The Cardinals won last year's Division I, Region 1 third-round game in the most dramatic fashion, scoring a touchdown and converting a 2-point try with 20 seconds left to stun the Bulldogs 25-24.

Norwayne boys heading to first state soccer championship game in school history

TWINSBURG − Fifteen minutes into the first half of a scoreless OHSAA Division V state semifinal match between Norwayne and Rootstown at Twinsburg Tiger Stadium on Wednesday, Nov. 11, Norwayne set the ball into the box, and forward/striker Erik Neruda was able to get a foot on it. A soft touch by Neruda was enough to get the ball over the Rootstown goalkeeper, who was coming off his lines, and it rolled into the net. That goal was the first of five for Norwayne in the Bobcats' (17-4-1) 5-2 victory over Rootstown (17-3-2) in a match where they took a 3-0 lead into halftime. Neruda's goal was a demonstration of how effective the Bobcats were in playing long balls downfield or switching the play to their forwards, who were able to make quality runs off the ball to put pressure on the Rovers backline for scoring chances. More: Chippewa's defensive activity swarms Hiland, heading to third straight state final "We were moving the ball well. We knew their defense was a little weaker," Neruda said. "We like to make runs and get out wide because the space is usually out wide, so we knew we had to exploit that. We
