High school football: Osborne leads St. Marys past St. Henry
Aug. 24—ST. MARYS — St. Marys played St. Marys football to a "T" on Friday night in a 33-14 win over St. Henry. They were physical on both sides of the ball, run-dominant and did more than enough to demoralize their opponent. Twice, St. Henry made it a one-score game, but both times, the Roughriders answered with a long, back-breaking drive that ended with a touchdown. They also dominated time ...

New look or not, Toledo football primed for 2024
Does the University of Toledo have a new-look roster? The 2023 starting quarterback and running back transferred. All five offensive linemen are gone. Cornerback Quinyon Mitchell was selected in the first round of the NFL draft. Senior leader Dallas Gant is on the Minnesota Vikings. But any team that has Tucker Gleason, Jacquez Stuart, Jerjuan Newton, Junior Vandeross, and Anthony Torres on offense isn’t going to be an underdog. And a defense equipped with Darius Alexander, Maxen Hook, Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, Dan Bolden, and D’Andre Ragin will be feared in every game. So, yes, the Rockets lost tremendous talent from last season’s 11-3 team. However, no one in the Mid-American Conference is feeling sorry for them.
Woman struck, killed by train in Springfield Township
A woman was struck and killed by a train Saturday in Springfield Township, and Lucas County authorities are asking for the public’s help identifying her.

Huge Vampire Coven in Ohio Gets Netflix Documentary
Netflix is about to drop a documentary that might show the world that Ohio is more creepy than we thought. And that is saying something. Joshua Rofé, who directed the 2021 Bob Ross doc has now set his sights on a murder mystery that took place in 1994 at a Goth club in Dayton, Ohio. This documentary titled "Vampires in Gem City" allegedly uncovers a vampire coven that's so large that it's only second to New Orleans. Ohio resident and TikToker with nearly 250,000 followers, Brittanstein says that it's not surprising that Ohio is fascinated with the dark side since this relatively small state has far more haunted attractions than any other state in the country.

Outdoors: 3 local DNR officers coming to northwest Ohio parks
After covering two fairly recent large events — Fish Ohio and the Little Portage Wildlife Area Restoration Project — I have come in contact with several Ohio Department of Natural Resources wildlife officers, and I have found them to be helpful, patient, and informative. Earlier this week, eight new officers graduated from their training and were sworn in ready to uphold their duties to serve the public and protect and promote the state’s wildlife resources. The ceremony took place at Deer Creek State Park Lodge & Conference Center last week, according an ODNR news release. These individuals are commissioned peace officers and provide law enforcement services at Ohio’s recreational properties and on its waters, which can be anything from educating a boater on proper safety to enforcing conservation laws. The peace officer training took place at the Ohio State Highway Patrol Training Academy in Columbus.
