[jeepchopper]

there is no reason why southern should get a bad rep becaause we are from southern ohio. as weve seen there are plenty from here that are great in a sport that people say only the central and north dominate.

[boilermaker]

Lance Phillips Wellston only 1 year in the sport and I think he finished top 5 in the state.

[tric118]

Nelsonville-York will hopefully add some kids to this list this year.
