.@SGerfen will have the big City League-North showdown between @EHTigersfb and @LindenFootball1.

[Dave Purpura @dp_dispatch]

My game tonight: @gahannafootball goes for its second 10-0 regular season in four years when it visits @pnfootball. Panthers would force at least a two-way tie for the OCC-Ohio Division title with a win.

@Isley23 They have to get rid of Vogt and/or Carl Willis. Yeah they're not hitting but good God, it's criminal how that staff has been mismanaged and tonight is the result.

[Dave Purpura @dp_dispatch]

@AulbachDan I remember the first time I visited Chicago in the winter and it screwed with my mind when the sun was going down at 4:20. Don't see that here.

Congratulations to Mason, the Division I team champion, and to the D2 champion, Orange. Mason defeated Avon in the semis and Upper Arlington in the finals.

@noahdivine1 About that ...

[Scott Gerber @OhioTennisZone]

It’s a beautiful day today for the State Team Tournament at the Lindner Family Tennis Center. Columbus School for Girls and Orange are playing for the D2 crown. Mason will play against Upper Arlington for the D1 Championship. This photo is from the D1 introductions.

@Isley23 Just remember what part of the state you're in. I love Cincinnati in a lot of ways, but college football knowledge is not one of them.
