Gehrig Anglin hit grand slams in back-to-back games tonight for the
@champcitykings
. That’s the first time that’s happened in the Kings 5-year history.
Fourth quarter: Springfield 29, De Smet 22. On Springfield’s next play from scrimmage, Schondelmyer hit Brown on a 69-yard TD pass to reclaim the lead. Schondelmyer’s pass to Thigpen on the 2-point play gave the Cats a 7-point lead. 4:27 remaining.
Final: Springfield 37, Dublin Jerome 14. Cats advanced to regional final for first time in combined school history. They’ll play Dublin Coffman on Nov. 22 at a site to be determined.
Final: Catholic Central 48, Cedarville 43. What a finish. Galluch with a monster 30-point game for the Irish, including a 3-point play with :15 to go to seal the win. Great game by both teams.
Fourth quarter: Springfield 22, Moeller 21. Norman comes up with huge punt block, giving Wildcats the ball back at Moeller’s 23-yard line. 1:34 remaining.
Final: Cedarville 67, Tri-Village 56. 24-1 Cedarville knocks off unbeaten Tri-Village and will face Botkins in a regional final game at 7 pm Friday at Vandalia Butler.
Last weekend,
@ArrowNationFB
joked that A.J. Betleyoun could play every position on the field this season, like a baseball utility player. He may be right.
My latest on Wright State University's Gehrig Anglin, who did something last week I'll never see again in my lifetime: He hit two grand slams in the same day.
Final: Tri-Village 32, Fort Loramie 30. What a finish. Pats freshman Kennedi Hager hit the front end of a 1-and-1 with 2.9 to go. After a FL timeout, Hager missed the second FT and the halfcourt heave from FL’s Ava Turner just barely rimmed out.
Midway through first half, Wittenberg leads Wooster 22-15. Wooster coach and Witt grad Steve Moore was honored before the game with a piece of the old 1929 Fieldhouse gym floor.
Final: Springfield 37, Olentangy 24. The Wildcats advance to a regional final game for the fifth straight season. They’ll play Dublin Coffman at a site to be determined.
WHAT A FINISH: Kenton Ridge’s Logan Fyffe converted a coast-to-coast layup with .6 seconds remaining to lift the Cougars to a 42-41 Central Buckeye Conference Kenton Trail Division victory over Jonathan Alder on Friday night in Springfield. The Cougars improved to 13-2.
Final: Shawnee 58, Versailles 55. Miller hits one free throw with 3.5 seconds remaining and Versailles misses from halfcourt. The Braves advanced to play Taft at 1 p.m. Saturday at Vandalia Butler.
Fourth quarter: Springfield 13, Findlay 0. Trojans had first-and-goal from the 1-yard line, but the Wildcats defense held on fourth down. 6:28 remaining.
No. 1 Tri-Village 32, No. 2 Fort Loramie 30. This one lived up to the hype. TV took a six-point lead midway through the fourth on two DEEP 3-pointers by Rylee Sagester. The Redskins fought back and nearly won the game on this last-second shot by Carissa Meyer. What a game.
I’ll be tweeting updates with
@DavidPJablonski
from both the Hamilton Badin and Springfield games today in Canton. My old KTC rivals Clinton Massie already brought home a title today.
Final: Catholic Central 43, Greenon 38. The Irish overcame an 8-point second half deficit to clinch at least a share of their second straight OHC South Title. Mallory Mullen hit two late free throws to seal the victory.
Shawnee’s Zion Crowe opened the game with a 3-pointer, becoming the Braves all-time leading scorer. He has 1,272 points, surpassing 2015 grad Jaden Greenwood (1,271 points).

Fourth quarter: Springfield 28, Moeller 24. The Crusaders get the ball back, but Springfield’s Tawfig Jabbar intercepted a pass on Moeller’s first play. 2:36 remaining and Moeller is out of timeouts. Wildcats have 2-and-12 from Moeller’s 36.
Tri-Village finishes the season with a state title and a perfect 30-0 record, matching the boys program, which completed the feat in 2015. They’re the first school in OHSAA history to have a boys and girls program each complete perfect seasons h/t

Ben Ross becomes the first player in program history to be named Mountain East Conference Player of the Year! And for the first time since 2014, NDC baseball has multiple players on the All-MEC First Team!

won in epic fashion. After Mitchell Okuley tied the score at 9 with a solo home run, Lukas Galdoni's sacrifice fly scored Ben Ross from third base to give them a 10-9 victory over Chillicothe and their first-ever division title.
Final: Tri-Village 52, Toledo Christian 50. The Patriots led by five points with eight seconds remaining and the Eagles hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer. Tri-Village wins its first state title in school history with a perfect 30-0 record.
Fourth quarter: Springfield 28, Moeller 24. The Crusaders ran a reverse on 4th-and-1 from their own 37 and the Wildcats weren’t fooled. Springfield takes over with 3:04 minutes remaining.
Congrats to Kenston's Anna Sanders, but the first female to score in an
@OHSAASports
state final football game was Shawnee's Carly Gregory in 2011, going 2-for-2 on extra points in the loss. Here's my story from that game:
Final: Central 71, New Miami 63. Irish will play St. Henry in a D-IV regional semifinal at 8 p.m. Tuesday at Kettering’s Trent Arena. Ladder is out for the Irish.

@DavidPJablonski
’s spot at UD for tonight’s D-IV regional semifinals. It may be my last cover of the season 🤷♂️? Wellington and Fort Loramie up first. Jackson Center plays Cin. Christian in the nightcap.
Final: Jonathan Alder 44, Shawnee 37. Shawnee held scoreless for final 2:30. Pioneers take sole possession of first place in the CBC Kenton Trail Division.
20 years in the making! These two were there when I walked into the newsroom as a completely naive 19-year old college student. They've taught me so much over the years.
Fourth quarter: Springfield 13, Moeller 12. Wafer intercepts a pass on 4th-and-4 from Moeller’s 48. The Wildcats have the ball 3-and-14 from their own 41 with about 2:53 remaining. Moeller just used its final timeout.
We had so much fun at today’s
