Okay....Everybody
Do barberton going to have a freshman team last year they didn't notOkay....
For the American, I think it is a case of the haves(Barberton, Aurora, Highland, Tallmadge) and the have nots(Kent, Copley, Revere and Falls) My personal picks for the American is:
Barberton
Highland
Aurora
Tallmadge
Revere
Copley
Kent
Falls
I dont know near enough about the National to make any selections
No idea. The 8th grade numbers last year were pretty goodDo barberton going to have a freshman team last year they didn't not
Is there discussion about that?Hopefully Cuyahoga Falls last year in the SL. They belong in the Metro Athletic
Not that I'm aware, just an obvious observation. Competing against Highland and Aurora in football every season can be just as challenging as the the best schools in the National Division. Schools like Akron Springfield, Field, Ravenna, and Coventry are much more on the competitive level with Falls. Maybe the SL American could swap them for Norton or Streetsboro.Is there discussion about that?
CVCA makes sense for the SL if they would be willing to add a private school. Travel is terrible for the Royals, whose current league is centered around the area between Massillon and Wooster.Not that I'm aware, just an obvious observation.

Both of those guys are really good. They will be tough to deal with againCollin Dixon(Tallmadge) and Roosevelt Andrews(Barberton) are ranked as the 34th and 42nd players in the state!

Kiss of death to NordoniaIn national last year to beat nordonia .2023 2025 watch out nordonia is loaded.
Barberton should be good tooKiss of death to Nordonia
Could you imagine the shock one would've caused 50 years ago saying this? Even Stow didn't compete with Falls (lost 44-0 in 76) back then, let alone the rest of the then Metro. Shocking how Falls has slidSchools like Akron Springfield, Field, Ravenna, and Coventry are much more on the competitive level with Falls.
To be fair, did you see Cuyahoga Falls' preliminary enrollment numbers? 876...enrollment is declining quickly and the community is aging. I imagine Parma was a force to be reckoned with at their peak.Could you imagine the shock one would've caused 50 years ago saying this?

How is barberton look likeTo be fair, did you see Cuyahoga Falls' preliminary enrollment numbers? 876...enrollment is declining quickly and the community is aging. I imagine Parma was a force to be reckoned with at their peak.
Those early 90's basketball games between Falls and Barberton were something to behold..Falls has fallen so badly in so many sports. It's hard to watch. They had state champion caliber baseball and basketball teams back in the 80's and 90's. Football teams were always competitive as well. Any kid that's worth anything anymore in Falls open enrolls somewhere or goes private.
