2009 News-Sun High School Football Preview: Quest for the Ring

sns082709TabCover.jpg

Each and every season is a fresh start in Ohio prep football. Although only six teams will win state championships, that doesn’t keep every other team in the state from dreaming of state glory.

The Springfield News-Sun 2009 High School Football Preview is based on the playoffs, everything from the agony of defeat to the thrill of victory, the near-misses and what it takes to make the playoffs in Ohio.

It’s all about the quest for the ring.

Clark and Champaign counties have never won a state title, but two teams finished as state runner-up, Catholic Central and Urbana.

One area coach, Chris Kosiorek, won a state title as an assistant coach at Cleveland Benedictine. Winning football games is also important because it helps build better people.

Making the playoffs is also a difficult task in its own right. That wasn’t the case before the playoff system, where Springfield High School won two state poll championships.

In recent history, the MAC has ruled small school football, beating many OHC challengers along the way.
