Playoffs.......Playoffs....... I follow Newark. I do like to see the Licking County Schools do well. Three teams made the playoffs from Licking County and all three advanced to the next round. Granville picked up their first ever playoff win.

I couldn't believe that was Granville's first ever win. Glad to see them advance. Johnstown, as well. 

Licking Valley will end up winning big tonight versus #3 seed Indian Valley. Not bad for a #7 seed, knocking off #2 and #3.

Davidson tried to give it away, but got past Springfield by 3. They'll need to be a lot better to defeat Pickerington Central and avenge their only loss.

Orrville had a surprisingly good regular season finishing 8-2 and has now won 2 games in the play-offs, beating undefeated Gilmour Academy last night 50-43 in three OT's.  Next up is Manchester. 

Trimble beat the South Columbus all stars 7-0  last night.  They play Lucas next week at Hamilton township.

Toledo Central Catholic beat up on Avon Lake 56-16, will take on Avon this Friday

Mogadore won 2nd rd in playoffs last week and play the AP#1 in Kirtland tonight. 

I think Kirtland has been in 5 of the last 6 state championship games. 

Licking Valley beat top seeded St Clairesville 30-0 to get to the state semifinals. Not bad. 

Trimble beat Lucas 21-14.  Moving on to their 3rd final four in 6 years.

Orrville moves on by defeating Akron Manchester 43-19. 

Hilliard Davidson loses to defending state champ Pickerington Central 20-13, the 2nd loss to them this season. Final record 11-2 with wins over region 2 champion Olentangy Liberty and runner-up Dublin Coffman.

Toledo CCHS loses to Avon in the D2 regional final...finishes season 12-1

Orrville has a sophomore running back:

"His 53 touchdowns give him 318 points on the season, the fifth highest single-season total in Ohio prep history. His next TD will put him into the No. 3 spot, and he needs 31 points to break the state record of 348 points set in 2016 by Daniel Bangura of Canal Winchester Harvest Prep." (from the Toledo Blade)

His name is Marquel Parks.

Licking Valley lost to Girard 53-48. They took the lead 48-47 on a 2-pt conversion with only a few minutes left, but couldn't keep Girard out of the end zone.
