Football

The Varsity Football Team finished their season with a WBL record of 3-6, and an all over record with 3-7.  This season was a new experience for everyone, because no one knew what to expect out of our new head coach, Bob Priest.  They started the season with a loss to Bryan, but shortly after hitting a winning streak by defeating Elida, Bath, and Celina.  Unfortunately for the Varsity team, these would be their only wins.  They then lost to Defiance, Wapakoneta, St Mary's, Ottawa Glandorf, Shawnee, and their final game against Kenton.  Fortunately this was a better season than last year.  But with the loss of their Ten Seniors, who knows how the Football team will do next year.  The JV Football Team played a season with a WBL record of 2-5 and an over all record of 3-5.  Their season started off with a win against Bryan and Elida, but losing to Bath.  They were lucky enough to gain one more win against Celina.  But after that their luck ran astray when they lost the rest of their games to; Defiance, Wapakoneta, St. Mary's, and Ottawa Glandorf.  The Freshman Football Team played an amazing team, going undefeated in the WBL and also undefeated over all with a record of winning all 7 games in the WBL and winning all 8 games total.  This great season was lead by their head coaches Bob Spath and Ben Collins.
