Basementbias Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Weird year to say the least. Biggest thing is that the OHSAA finals are the weekend before the IHSAA instead of the weekend after. For the Ohio representatives in the area: D4-Van Wert Cougars D6-Coldwater Cavaliers D7- New Bremen Cardinals As for the Indiana teams in semi state: 4A-Marion 2A-Bishop Luers 1A-South Adams Starfires Hoping we get 3x State Champs and 3x Going to State finals! If we don't, it was still a great season for all these teams and many others getting through COVID the best they could! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southend Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Nice, going to school in New Haven in the late 60’s we spent a lot of time in the western part of Ohio, being 20 minutes away. Van wert county fair was the biggest in the in the area. Nice drag strip there. But the big attraction was the beer! 18 was the age limit. All of us looked 18, and Sunday sales. 50 years later indiana allowed Sunday sales. But yes, small communities in western Ohio but great football. , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Haydock coached the Woodburn team. And was always curious why that wasn’t done more back in the NEIC days. Even more so with basketball. Short travel across the border.

I like our little Adams County fair where it's just showing livestock and not all the other crap. I don't mind the horse racing but I can do without the carnival rides and such. Hate the town feel mixing its way into agriculture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The region ain’t what it used to be. The star fires are in the driver’s seat in this one. I don’t think the knights will advance against Pioneer. I don’t know much about the Ohio teams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. My father moved away from Ft. Wayne after HS for work. My parents (mother is from NWI) settled in Schererville where my sister and I were raised. My dad passed away in February 2012. New Haven will always have a fan with me. ***IMSC, my dad's mom and dad had a house on Paulding Road. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s where my parents house was, about 2 blocks north of Paulding, and intersects with Hessen Castle. next to St. Henry school. We all lived in Fort Wayne, and they Bussed us 7 miles or so to New Haven high school.” We’re all better than sliced bread” or think we are, as one poster has INSISTED.

I have about 6 going to SA. Only 2 will probably try and play football for SA. My kids will go to AC but my step kids go across the line to Crestview. I think only one year will we have family against each other. We will have a Sr vs Fr if both play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laces_Out_Dan Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Luers is going to have their hands full with Pioneer. We might not have the state titles they have, but those farm boys can flat out ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might want to go back and reread what I said. It was in reference to the New Haven football team and not the people from New Haven.
