Cleveland Kicks Off High School Football Season
This weekend marks the start of the high school football season in Cleveland, Ohio. Many teams are excited to begin their quest toward the coveted state championships in Canton.
Last year, Northeast Ohio showcased some remarkable talent on the gridiron. Five local teams claimed OHSAA state football championships, signifying a strong football tradition in the area. Among the champions, four teams hail from the seven-county coverage area, including St. Edward, Glenville, Perry, and Kirtland. These schools made their mark with impressive performances throughout the season.
In an exciting start to the championship weekend last year, Massillon faced off against Archbishop Hoban in a gritty battle that ended with a score of 7-2.
