FINDLAY — There were few tears after Carey’s Division IV district semifinal loss to McComb on Monday night at Findlay. While it was the end of the season, it was not the end of the careers for any of the Blue Devils team that has no seniors, and they had shown just how good they might be next year by hanging tough with the No. 2 seed Panthers in the 25-17, 22-25, 25-17, 25-20 loss.

FOSTORIA — Even when the New Riegel volleyball team’s outside and middle hitters hit or tipped the ball to the precise spot on the floor they hoped to, the Mohawk Warriors picked it up and ran offense with it. And many of those times, a kill by Mohawk senior outside hitters Madi Chester or Kaylee Ward or by middle hitters Paityn Clouse or Emma Myers-Huffman quickly ensued.

VAN BUREN — After suffering a 1-0 loss on the road to Van Buren just over two weeks ago, the Riverdale Falcons were looking to flip the score in their favor in Saturday’s Division III sectional final between the two North Central Ohio Soccer Association teams.

GALION — Upper Sandusky’s Madelyn Shasteen and Wynford’s boys team and girls runner Allison Lust qualified for regionals from the cross country district meet held Saturday at Amann’s Park near Galion. With the top four teams from each race advancing to the regional meet, Wynford finished fourth in the Division III district 1 race with 150 points, beating Norwalk St. Paul for the final regional spot by 23 points.

FINDLAY — Carey’s girls team and Riverdale’s Kendra Collier, Juleigha Collier and Eli Weber qualified for regionals during the district cross country meet Saturday at the Owen’s Community College Findlay campus.

BUCYRUS — Amidst all of the success that the 2018 Mohawk football team has achieved, some wondered if it could become more explosive on offense. Challenge accepted. After punting on their opening drive, the Warriors scored on their next five possessions, including a 62-yard run by quarterback Keith Jenkins and a 90-yard touchdown pass from Jenkins to Zach Hayman as the Warriors cruised to a 44-0 victory over Wynford on Friday at Wynford High School.

Bucyrus has been a team that has played opponents tough in the first half, and with the aid of five turnovers, the Redmen’s early performance Friday night was more than Upper Sandusky could handle in a 41-6 loss. The Rams lost a pair of fumbles and threw three interceptions, and the Redmen turned four of those turnovers into touchdowns while running out to a 35-0 halftime advantage.

CAREY — The Carey offense was firing on all cylinders Friday night in a Northern 10 Athletic Conference football game against Buckeye Central. Celebrating senior night, the Blue Devils didn’t punt the entire game and the defense forced four turnovers in a blowout 61-26 victory over the winless Bucks.

ARCADIA — Justyn Scott ran for 340 yards and six touchdowns as Riverdale ran away with a 57-20 victory against Arcadia on Friday night at Arcadia. Scott scored on runs of 1, 13, 8, 22, 73 and 89 yards as the Falcons (5-4, 4-3 Blanchard Valley Conference) racked up 490 yards on 39 rushing attempts. Scott had 21 of those carries. The senior running back got the Falcons on the board first with a 1-yard touchdown run.

SYCAMORE — A coach does not get to 300 wins in just 15 seasons without postseason victories. Eric Hoover reached that milestone Thursday night as Mohawk won its ninth straight sectional title by starting strong and finishing even stronger in a 25-12, 27-25, 25-17 victory against Toledo Christian at Mohawk.
