'The best feeling': Lane, McIntyre, Tompkins twins set Region 9 record in 1,600 relay
CRESTON TWP. — The medals kept coming. Until they clinked together in euphony.

'It's just been so great': Smithville takes the day at D3 Norwayne Regional
CRESTON — On Friday night in the finals of the Norwayne Division III Regional, nothing was safe. Especially the Smithville record book.

'We knew we had something special': Norwayne wins first district title in 20 years
CRESTON — In many ways, Norwayne escaped during the district semifinals earlier in the week.

Rittman's Luke Snyder owns distance events at D3 Norwayne Regional
CRESTON — One thing that Rittman’s Luke Snyder prides himself on his knowing exactly at what point of a race to kick. It’s a plan that he and his coach (and dad) Matt Snyder discuss at length in training sessions leading up to race day. But on Friday night at the Norwayne Division III Regional, Luke Snyder had a tough time remembering exactly when to go. An Honors Algebra II final exam earlier in the day can...

'We belong': Wooster beats St. Ignatius for second straight Div. I district title
CLEVELAND — Wooster baseball is here to stay. It didn’t matter the Generals were playing a school with more than twice their male enrollment. It didn’t matter they were playing St. Ignatius at the Wildcats’ home field. It didn’t matter they have graduated some of their best players in program history over the last several seasons. It didn’t matter starting pitcher Kyle Oswald exited the game in the second inning with an injury.
‘Right here, right now’ Lex, Ontario duos excel in the moment, earn All-Ohio tennis honors
WOOSTER — Ahora. It’s a Spanish word, pronounced oh-rah, that loosely translated means “Right here, right now!”. Ontario siblings Pablo and Hector Sanchez Vidal said it many times to fire each other up on the tennis court the last three weeks after being thrown together as a doubles team for the high school postseason.
