March 6, 2023--There are 14 individual weight classes contested in each division of the state tournament, and that has been the case since 1995. Before then there were 13 weight classes, an era that started in 1971, which was the first year of the boys’ state wrestling tournament having multiple divisions (Class AAA and Class A-AA).

In that 1995 season, Cuyahoga Falls Walsh Jesuit became the first team to crack the 200-point barrier, as the Warriors had 203 points on the strength of five state champions. Since then, the mark has been exceeded 13 times, four by Lakewood St. Edward (2005-2007, 2012) and nine by St. Paris Graham Local (2007-2011, 2015-2018). It should be noted the first 50 editions of the state tournament never saw a team even exceed 100 points, as Akron Coventry was the first to do so with their 158.5 points in the 1978 Class AA tournament.

DeWine, Norfolk Southern announce developing first responders training center

Posted by Staff on Friday, March 10, 2023

COLUMBUS—Ohio Governor Mike DeWine announced on March 8 that Norfolk Southern Corporation has agreed to his idea to improve and expand firefighter training by creating a new first responders training center and expanding its Operation Awareness & Response (OAR) program, which travels the company’s 22-state network and trains first responders on how to respond safely to rail incidents.

“The derailment in East Palestine made clear that ensuring first responders are prepared for disasters involving hazardous materials is vitally important to the safety of communities,” said Ohio Governor Mike DeWine. “Often first responders are volunteers, and their need to have the most up-to-date training and equipment is essential. Today’s commitment by Norfolk Southern is an important next step in the company’s commitment to make the citizens of Ohio and of East Palestine whole after the recent derailment, a commitment Ohio will continue to monitor closely.”

The new safety training center’s mission will be focused on providing additional, free training for first responder across the region, including Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. This effort will also strengthen coordination between railroads and first responders in the event of an emergency response.
