    Nordonia football stuns Tigers by Steve Batko | Correspondent ~ Twinsburg Bulletin First-year Nordonia football coach Jeff Fox had nothing to say about himself after his squad after a 36-12 win over rival Twinsburg in the third annual Bob Evans Backyard Brawl Aug. 31 at Twinsburg Tiger Stadium. But Fox had plenty to say about his team. "This is not about me," said Fox. "I think this is a huge win for the program, and for these kids," he stressed. "Twinsburg is a big cross-town rival and our kids battled." Twinsburg, which lost 28 seniors to graduation, moved to 0-2 as this was their first game since All-Ohio back John Barton had a season-ending knee injury. Costly turnovers, mistakes and penalties riddled the Tigers. Nordonia (1-1) came in hungry after a heartbreaking one-point overtime loss to Mayfield. "We just did not execute in all phases of the game," said Twinsburg coach Joe Schiavone. "This is a good football team, but we have to become a better team and stop shooting ourselves in the foot." Leading 19-6 at halftime, the Knights had many big plays on offense and cashed in two Tiger turnovers into 13 points. Twinsburg senior free safety Cooper Rea had an interception on the first play of the game. After new Tiger tailback Tyrone McGuinea just broke two tackles to convert a first down on fourth-and-1, senior Jalen Washington passed to Mike Peelman to move Twinsburg to the Knight 1-yard line. However, the play was called back due to a holding penalty, The Tigers' next possession saw a Washington pass get tipped and Nordonia senior Ben Halkowski grabbed the loose ball.

During his final season, the Pioneers first baseman was a headache for pitchers hitting an impressive .400 with 10 doubles, 3 triples and a home run. Along with being named First-Team All-Ohio, Inman was also highly regarded throughout the county. Perfect Game, a national amateur baseball publication, had high praise for the Elyria native and named him high honorable men- tion on their All-American Squad. While Inman’s future will very likely see him playing professional baseball, the former Pioneer will be suiting up for the West Virginia Moun- taineers in 2016. Anna Edwards: In the circle or at the plate, Avon’s Anna Edwards was a force to be reckoned with in 2015. Many would claim it was the pitching that led the Avon hurler to the Miss Lorain County Softball award, and with a record of 8-3 and a 1.41 ERA it would be hard to argue against.

The class is comprised of players from seven states - in addition to a wellspring of talent culled from the Buckeye State, Notre Dame recruited student-athletes from Florida, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan and Pennsylvania. (Player profiles) “We received some very talented out-of-state commitments,” Howard indicated, “along with some solid Ohio guys and a few exciting transfers who are players returning to Northeast Ohio. Cedric Hill and Brandon Watkins from Michigan are three-star players with immense ability. Jeremy Glass is a big-time line prospect from Kentucky. Among our Ohio recruits, we’re very happy with players the caliber of Akyee Henderson (Cleveland), Joseph Nawalaniec (Parma) and Seth Rall (Bucyrus). And those names are just the tip of the iceberg.” Hill is a free safety who had 71 tackles, five interceptions and nine pass break-ups in his 2011 senior season at Southfield High School in Detroit.
