OSU’s Tressel to help Panther football honor special family
Ohio State head football coach Jim Tressel will be the keynote speaker on Monday, June 8 when the Springboro football family gets together to honor some special people in Boro history.
Each year, the players and their fathers attend a father and son event to kick off the upcoming season. This year, that event will honor former Panther greats Jake and Josh Ballard and their father, Ben, who was an assistant coach on the Panthers staff when Jake and Josh played.
Jake Ballard plays football at OSU and Josh plays at Morehead State.
The event will be held at the high school with the reception starting at 6:30 and the program beginning at 7 p.m. See the web site springborofootball.com/ or e-mail coach Randy Wilhite at rwilhite@springboro.org for more information.

Yes indeed a class act. I agree to that hopefully Jake will have a great year and help the Buckeyes to another outstanding year. With the body Jake has and the height he posses just throw him a jump ball.
