They focused on a powerful ground attack with Conner Stephenson and Jakob Garber, consuming a lot of time early in the game to gain dominance. Combined, they ran for over 300 yards. "We've been that way all year," said Coach DeMarco, speaking on his team's strong running game. "And we wanted to ride 44 and 32, and we started with that in week one." They were so effective at controlling the clock, spending more than eight minutes in the second quarter to take the lead, and in another possession they controlled it for over six minutes. Cleveland Central Catholic could not get any offense going throughout the game, settling for punts and giveaways from a solid defense by the Indians that got two interceptions from Sanad Abueteen early and late in the game. "It's probably the game plan going forward," said Stephenson as he talked about the success of the

Ohio high school football powerhouse banned from playoffs amid probe
An investigation into a player's eligibility has removed Glenville, one of Ohio's premier high school football programs, from postseason play. The Akron Beacon Journal, part of the USA TODAY Network, reported that the Cleveland-area program's postseason ban stems from an audit of fall-sport participation that found many of the team's football players should be playing for other schools. This is not the first time that Glenville has received this punishment for the same situation. The other time was in 2018, when the program was also fined $5,000 and placed on probation for three years. According to the report, Ginn Academy, a non-OHSAA-member magnet school, is at the center of the investigation. The school does not offer sports, and athletes there can participate at other schools as long as they are in the Cleveland Metropolitan School District and live closest to that school. The report noted that the OHSAA is reviewing the extent of the violations and whether they extend to other schools in the area. They said there is no timetable for when the investigation will be completed or whether other penalties will be added. The Tarblooders are 8-2 on the year and were set to enter the postseason as

'A blessing to be back,' Kasey Bolyard takes second at district meet
PLAIN TWP. — Kasey Bolyard wanted a district title. No doubt about it. Still, as the Mogadore senior battled her way through soreness to a second-place finish Oct. 24 at GlenOak, she felt nothing but gratitude. A year ago, Bolyard missed the entire cross country postseason because of injury. So there was no way Bolyard was taking the chance to run for granted. "It's a blessing to be back honestly because during the summertime my training I felt like wasn't that good and I was just worried about regionals and states still and all of that," Bolyard said. "So it's just a blessing to be back and get to do what I love and get to be conditioned for basketball, too." Watch Ohio High School Sports Live on NFHS Network all year Bolyard's battle for second place was far from easy. She spent much of the Division IV girls race with a couple of competitors right by her side. She spent time in second, third and fourth as the three jockeyed for position. Still, Wildcats coach Diana Morris wasn't surprised when Bolyard came out at the head of that pack, placing second in 20:58.5. "She knows how to finish," Morris
