From JFK's slow but steady triumph over Champion to South Range's emphatic win over Springfield, we've got you covered. Plus, get exclusive insights on first-year head coaches Damon Buente, David Rach, Derrick Bush and James Hogue and their significant wins at JFK, South Range, Lakeview and Newton Falls, respectively.

    But the excitement doesn't stop there. Prepare to relive the nail-biting finishes like Chaney and Akron East's single point difference game, Lowellville and Columbiana's suspense filled match, and last but certainly not least, Mineral Ridge's last-minute victory led by quarterback Owen Shingledecker and wide receiver Brady Balestrino.
