Orrville Faces Elyria Catholic in Narrow Playoff Loss
Orrville’s Mo Tipton leads the Red Riders in a short playoff run, declining to retire after losses to Elyria Catholic and past foes while Elyria Catholic extends a 25 game win streak. The Panthers, directed by former coach Jim Rattay and with standout players like Jim Molnar, sit atop the region with four regional titles and two state championships. Westlake’s Wade Massad sets a season passing percentage mark, Steubenville’s Kelley and Young power the offense, and Orrville’s Keith Denson breaks loose for an 80 yard TD as officials and crowd react to a tense night.

Ducks Unlimited Fundraising Banquet Aids Duck Habitats
Ducks Unlimited held a fundraising banquet at the Holiday Inn in Elyria, drawing waterfowl enthusiasts from across Ohio. The non profit group plans to raise over a million dollars this year, with 90 percent supporting habitat projects such as Canadian water control structures and the Cumberland 250000 acre initiative. Chairman David Brunkhorst says the society is volunteer driven and focused solely on duck habitat preservation, not political stands. Bill Kaatz of Lorain County invites locals to join or contact him to join or engage with Greenwings youth group.
