Interesting notes since 2000:
- Qualified for playoffs 10 times in the 21 year stretch, 8 times had a home game in week 11 (2 games in 2020 due to expanded playoffs)
- Only lost in first round of playoffs 1 times since 2000 (2009 vs. Carey)
- 9-0 all-time in home playoff games
- 5/10 Grove teams to make the playoffs since 2000 made it to the regional championship
- Columbus Grove is 5-0 all-time in regional championship games
Not quite the same resume as some of the MAC schools I am familiar with, but Grove has a great football tradition that many schools can be envious of. Adding 1990-99 would add quite a bit to the overall wins and NWC wins, along with 4 playoff appearances and 4 NWC championships, but the first playoff win did not come until 1999 when it was expanded to 8 teams per region. My favorite part about our history from 2000-2020 is that when we make the playoffs, we've got a good tendency to make some noise and win big games, even as underdogs.
