    First of all, it's ALWAYS Massillon first, Massillon/Canton LOL

    Secondly, I like this thread, but you have to clarify, do you mean most intense, longest running or most games played?

    Here are a few

    Of course don't forget Troy/Piqua

    Also

    Massillon/Warren
    Massillon/Federal League
  • slingshot4ever
    I would say Toledo St. Johns has more of a rivalry with St. Francis than Central Catholic.
  • hoops23
    I would say Sandusky vs Fremont belongs as #2.

    A lot of great players have played in that rivalry and the two cities even went to war before.

    Also the 2nd oldest in Ohio.
  • ernest_t_bass
    St. Johns/St. Francis
    Troy/Piqua
    Botkins/Russia
  • lets_go_devils
    Campbell Memorial vs Struthers
  • gerb131
    Reynoldsburg vs Pick Central
  • TheQ
    A lesser known rivalry that used to be extremely intense (they cancelled the game for a few years because of fights on and off the field, etc.) is Salem vs West Branch. Still a rivalry game, but things have cooled down considerably.
  • TheQ
    Youngstown Ursuline vs Cardinal Mooney should be in the top ten.
  • Y-Town Steelhound
    Warren JFK vs. Niles. The rivalry is so great that it prevents the teams from playing each other.
  • OQB
    100th meeting...Orrville vs Wooster

    It should be intense first . a long standing game atleast 20 id say . should be not dominated by one team

    Biggest rival is probably Toledo Start or St Johns. Start hasn't been too competitive recently though.
