The Ginn Way in Cleveland

by Jeff Fisher
High School Football America

Ted Ginn, Sr. is a man that is know for doing great things on the football field as the head football coach at Cleveland's Glenville High School.

Ginn's son, Ted Jr., plays for the Miami Dolphins and he coached Heisman Trophy winner Troy Smith in high school. Last season, the Tarblooders played in their first-ever Ohio state championship game, losing to Hilliard Davidson 16-15 in the Division I title game.

Today, I found a great story that CBS News ran on Ginn in December. Ginn is helping at-risk youth in the city at his brand new school called the Ginn Academy. While Ginn has a lot of victories since taking over at at Glenville in 1997, his biggest wins may be coming in the classrooms with the children at Ginn Academy.

#18 Glenville-St. Ignatius Round Two in Ohio

By Jeff Fisher
The High School Football Huddle

As is usually the case in the Cleveland and Cincinnati areas of Ohio high school football, it's hard to make it to the Division 1 state championship game because of the quality of teams in the state's two biggest cities.

That will be the case this year as four top-notch teams...Glenville (#18 USA Today Super 25), Elder (#19 USA Today), St. Ignatius and Colerain all worthy of taking home a Division 1 championship trophy. In the case of Glenville and St. Ignatius, the season will come to a close for one of the Cleveland-area schools tomorrow when they meet for the second time this season.

St. Ignatius began the season in the USA Today poll, but lost to Glenville 20-17. Since that loss, both teams have run the table.
