I think this is also why there’s a big push to get a 12th team in the NLL. These late in the season home games against TCL teams that bring less fans than coaches won’t fly for long.

Big push? Who might the 12th be, and what is being done to bring them in?
 
Just for the "hell of it" I looked at Calprep website division wide rankings in D7 on the remaining 8 region 26 teams:

Team Calprep D7 ranking
Pandora-Gilboa 4
Hopewell-Loudon 5
Lima Central Catholic 6
McComb 7
Patrick Henry 8
Convoy-Crestview 18
Arlington 28

5 of the top 10 teams in the division are still alive in this region (I didn't look but betting Leipsic was on there as well), but on another thread I got roasted for saying this was the deepest region in D7 lol

What??? Are you saying that some people might not necessarily know what they're talking about? On a message board? What are the chances?

I think it was on the R26 thread.. of course every reply was “it can’t be the deepest, it doesn’t have a MAC team!” By a bunch of non-MAC posters

Grove proved last year that you don't need a MAC team in order to be a good region. They played ML as tough as anybody aside from Versailles and Wapak, that's pretty good company.

Region 2 has a large amount of parity between schools (hence why Findlay fell to 4-7 Berlin). Conference SOS be darned, injuries be darned, all of it be darned, I think the Jackets can hold on to dear life because why the heck not.

Anthony Wayne with their grass field and home crowd will give the Generals as solid as a home field advantage as you can get. By no means does it give them a guaranteed win, but it gives them a shot. Pasteur has them winning by 11.

If Clay was able to hang around with Olmsted Falls for the first half despite having not the strongest defense, I think Southview is more than capable of finishing the job. Triple option is always going to be tricky to defend, but I think Sexton and Mayzes (if he is able to play) will keep the Cougars in it.

Lima Senior, Toledo City League representative, is having a phenomenal year this year. Pasteur has them losing by 25 to Troy, but looking at common opponents (Piqua and Xenia) Lima actually outscored Troy's number in one game and came up a point short in the other (points allowed be darned). Let Lima get to 10 wins. Let them get to the third round.

Two Bulldog teams get knocked out, the Columbian Tornado Warning gets extended to another week, and Wapakoneta puts a halt to the Aviator flight plan.

Leipsic was rated as the 14th best team in D7, per calprep ratings, plus Tiffin Calvert @ 26 and Ayersville @ 29

The Toledo City League is inducting their latest HOF class.

8 to be added to City League Hall of Fame - NewsBreak

Five athletes, a coach, and a distinguished citizen will be honored, along with a notable athlete/coach who will be awarded posthumously, at the Toledo City Athletic League’s 40th Hall of Fame dinner and induction Monday. The event will be held at the Premier, 4480 Heatherdowns Blvd. in Toledo...

One could make an argument for Cunningham, Thompson, and Cullars for sure. However...

Charlie Contrada was not a good football player or athlete. He is a local attorney who in the past has moonlighted as a local sports analyst and advertises on BCSN more than anyone else. There are thousands of more deserving woman athletes and coaches.

Knabbs-Andrews excelled in competitive cheering and was the school's first black homecoming queen? At DeVilbiss in 1974? Competitive cheerleading was not a thing in 1975 and it certainly was not a sport. And what does being homecoming queen have to do with anything? Cullars plays the piccolo but you don't see him bragging about it. ;) There are thousands of more deserving athletes and coaches.

Nye? Eh, ok.

Boyle I get from the community aspect.

This exemplifies the TCL's demise by highlighting the laziness and lack of pride in actually doing some homework and honoring those that deserve.

I found it very odd that Findlay agreed to play TCC I can guess that maybe Findlay didn't have any other options? Plus TCC hasn't taken any of Findlay's athletes so animosity isn't has great as it is toward St. John's and St. Francis which has taken a number of non-football athletes.

There is busing that goes to Findlay to bring students to Toledo...

Makes me kind of sad that I wonder how the HOF will even be able to continue in the coming decades with the state of the TCL. Central Catholic has essentially become the de facto TPS All-Star team while the rest of the City League is after school extracurriculars that keep kids out of gangs. I'd argue at the moment the City League is only above the TAAC and SBC River in NW Ohio at the moment as far as league strength goes
