Amato's
field
goal is
winner
for
Black
Central
Fairview
QBs
named
MVPs
The 15th
annual
Regional
All-Star
Football
Game

Southview's Aaron Waldie (21) is tackled by Craig Huntermark of Cardinal Stritch after catching a pass in the first half.
( THE BLADE/JETTA FRASER ) |
Dan
Amato,
who grew
up only
two
blocks
from
Steinecker
Stadium
and
practiced
kicking
there
for
years,
booted
the
game-winning
field
goal
there
last
night in
an
all-star
game to
wrap up
his high
school
career
in
fairy-tale
fashion.
Amato, a
quarterback
and
kicker
at
Central
Catholic
for
three
years,
gave his
Black
team a
15-13
win over
the Gold
by
drilling
a
25-yard
field
goal
with
10.4
seconds
left in
the
Regional
All-Star
Football
Game
last
night at
Perrysburg.
"I
live two
blocks
from
here and
kick
every
other
day here
in the
summer.
I was
just
thinking
to
myself
I've
done
this so
many
times in
practice
it is
just
another
kick and
it
happened,"
Amato
said.
"I've
never
kicked a
game-winning
field
goal and
tonight
to end
my
career
like
this is
a good
feeling.
"This
is why
I've
played
sports
for 19
years."
Amato,
who was
named
the
Black
team's
MVP, was
7-for-11
for 113
yards
and a
touchdown.
Defiance
graduate
Graham
Wagner,
who will
play
football
at Ohio
Dominican
College,
alternated
with
Amato at
quarterback.
Graham
was
inserted
with
4:32
left and
his team
down
13-12.
He drove
his team
62 yards
to set
up
Amato's
field
goal
with
passing
plays of
35 and
13
yards.
"We
did it
when it
counted,"
Wagner
said.
"This is
one
thing
you
dream of
to just
be in
the
spotlight."
Black
coach
Chris
Werbylo
said his
team's
two
blocked
punts
were the
difference.
One set
up a
touchdown.
Fairview
graduate
Steve
Olwin,
the
quarterback
of the
Gold
team,
was
named
his
squad's
MVP. He
was
coached
for the
last
time by
his
father,
Bob,
while
playing
in his
last
football
game.
"I'm
glad
about
the MVP,
but I'd
take a
win over
this
anytime,"
he said.
"It was
a
special
thing
and it
was a
great
experience.
I knew
my dad
really
wanted
to see
me out
there
again,
and I
wanted
him to
coach me
again."
Olwin
threw
was
10-of-16
for 191
yards
and
hooked
up with
teammate
Mike
Mack on
an
81-yard
touchdown
play
early in
the
game.
Olwin
drove
his team
64 yards
late in
the game
to set
up a
18-yard
field
goal by
Northview's
Jim
Spencer
that put
the Gold
up 13-12
with
4:32
left.
On
the
game's
first
possession,
Olwin
connected
on a
46-yard
pass
play to
Delta's
Nate
Kmic.
Four
plays
later
Spencer
gave his
team a
3-0 lead
with
2:20
gone in
the
game.
Late
in the
first
quarter,
Amato
took the
Black
team on
a seven
play,
74-yard
drive to
give his
team the
lead.
Amato
capped
the
drive
with a
12-yard
TD
strike
to
Swanton's
Matt
Taynor.
The
Gold
scored
just
three
plays
later on
Olwin's
long
throw to
Mack who
streaked
down the
left
sideline
and went
untouched
into the
end
zone.
"They're
very
close
friends
and have
thrown
together
for
years,"
coach
Olwin
said.
"We
threw it
out
there
and let
him do
the
rest."
Late
in the
third
quarter,
the
Black
team's
Zak
Kruse of
Napoleon
blocked
a punt
that was
recovered
at the
Gold
7-yard
line.
Three
plays
later
Wagner
scored
on a QB
sneak to
put the
Black up
12-10
with
4:42
left in
the
third.
"A lot
of guys
stepped
up when
we
needed
to and
made big
plays,"
Wagner
said.
Southview
receiver
Aaron
Waldie
had
three
catches
for 67
yards.
After
Spencer
nailed
his
second
field
goal for
the
Gold,
Wagner's
clutch
drive
set up
Amato's
dramatic
kick.

Hillsdale Signs WR,
LB
As the
over-hyping
of National
Letter of
Intent
Signing has
faded,
Hillsdale
College head
football
coach Keith
Otterbein
and his
staff have
remained
hard at
work, trying
to finalize
this year's
recruiting
class.
Recently

who bring
added speed
to the
Charger
football
program.
Aaron
Waldie,
5'11, 175, WR, Sylvania

be a part of
the great
football
tradition at

Waldie said
recently. "I
have heard
nothing but
great things
about the

the school."
Waldie
brings with

Cougars'
Waldie Is Named Mirror Player Of
The Year
Southview wide
receiver Aaron Waldie pulls down one
of his 50 regular-season receptions
during a September 14 game against
Springfield. Waldie was The Mirror's
unanimous selection as its Player of
the Year for the 2004 football
season. Waldie earned all-league,
district and state honors for his 50
receptions 820 yards and 11
touchdowns. In addition, his play on
both defense and special teams
helped propel the Cougars to a 9-2
record and a trip to the regional
quarterfinals this season. He is the
second Southview player in as many
years to be selected for the honor.

BY ANDREW
ROWER MIRROR SPORTS |
|
| The Mirror is
pleased to announce its selections for
the fifth annual All-Mirror football
team. The Northern Lakes League
continued to carve out a reputation for
having some of the finest high school
football talent in Northwest Ohio this
season. For the second straight year,
three of its eight teams – Maumee,
Rossford and Southview – earned state
playoff births.
The Panthers (9-3) defeated
Olentangy 24-14 in the first round of
the playoffs before bowing out with a
30- 6 loss to Tiffin Columbian in the
regional semifinal. Southview (9-2),
also competing in Division II, was edged
out of the regional quarterfinals by
Amherst, 14- 7, and Rossford (7-4) was
beaten by Otsego in Division IV.
Nonetheless, the attention and
excitement these three teams brought to
the NLL was unforgettable. Following the
season, the league had a total of 33
players receive special mention from the
district, and six of them received
additional statewide honors.
This hefty number can be
attributed to the coaches and players
who put themselves on the line night
after night for the better part of four
months. The sports department at The
Mirror believes these individuals should
be commended. With The Mirror giving
complete yearly coverage to Anthony
Wayne, Maumee and Springfield High
Schools, its sports reporters see all
eight teams in the league at least three
times throughout the season.
Because of this exclusive
coverage, All-Mirror players are
selected solely from the NLL. The
selection process was based on a number
of other factors, including coaches'
opinions, writers' observations and
total statistics for the season
(including non-league but not playoff
games). Northern Lakes League contests
provided quite a variety of highlights
this year. At the beginning of the
season, Southview was the unanimous pick
to repeat as the 2004 league champs.
Maumee and Rossford were selected second
and third, Anthony Wayne and Springfield
fourth and fifth and Northview,
Perrysburg and Bowling Green rounded out
the final three spots.
The top three predictions from the
poll came to fruition, but the remaining
five finished in an unexpected order.
Jeff Cullen's Bobcats surprised everyone
with a 4-3 league record – moving up
four spots to No. 4, and the Wildcats
moved up to fifth with a 3-4 record –
the same mark as the Generals. The
Yellow Jackets and Blue Devils took the
final two spots with identical 1-6
records. When choosing our Coach of the
Year, The Mirror found it hard to look
any further than its own back yard and
Maumee's John Boles. Boles has been at
Maumee for six years and has compiled a
120-76 career record. The Panthers
finished 9-3 in 2003 and graduated all
but four of their starters. Boles and
his coaching staff were forced to
replace 10 offensive players – including
their entire offensive line – and seven
defensive starters.
Not surprisingly, the 2003
recipient of the award and this season's
NLL Coach of the Year, Southview's Jim
Mayzes, received consideration.
Southview wide receiver Aaron Waldie,
Mayzes' star pupil, was an even easier
choice for The Mirror's Player of the
Year. Waldie was voted second team
All-Mirror, as a sophomore, with 39
receptions for 607 yards and five
touchdowns. He also was named to the
second team as a kick/punt returner with
a 20.1 average. He earned honorable
mention as a cornerback with the help of
three interceptions, two fumble
recoveries and a sack.
As a junior, he was voted first
team, All-Mirror with 52 catches for
1,126 yards and 11 touchdowns and also
was named to the first team as a
cornerback with four interceptions and a
fumble recovery and given honorable
mention as a kick/punt returner with a
combined 12.7 average. This year, the
5-foot-11, 167-pounder reeled in 50
catches for 820 yards and 11 touchdowns.
He also recorded 38 tackles, a pair of
interceptions and three fumble
recoveries and had a combined return
average of 9.5 yards. Aside from Waldie,
many additional individual highlights
accented the 2003 season.
Four quarterbacks passed for 1,000
yards or more, with Southview's Andrew
Skeels leading the way at 1,908.
Rossford's Kevin Wagner finished just 10
yards shy of 1,000 in the rushing
department and six receivers compiled
more than 400 yards through the air. In
the kicking department, the NLL had a
pair of all-staters in Northview's Jimmy
Spencer and Southview's Kevin Lanning.
Spencer converted on 10 of 13 field
goal attempts and averaged 48.5 yards
per kickoff, and Lanning made 31 extra
points and averaged 52.3 yards on
kickoffs.
Defensively, Northview linebacker
James Reed led the league in tackles for
the second straight year with 122.
Additional members of the 100 tackle
club included Anthony Wayne linebacker
Tim Babcock (112), Perrysburg defensive
tackle Drew Crabtree (109) and
linebacker Mike Dewar (103). Bowling
Green's Tyler Fries led the league with
six sacks, and Maumee defensive back
Alex Junga set the interception mark at
six. Although Waldie was the unanimous
pick, Junga also should receive extra
mention. He earned first-team status on
the All-Mirror team as a utility player,
with his multidimensional contributions.
Junga pulled in 25 receptions for 608
yards and five touchdowns on the
offensive side of the ball, added three
touchdowns while averaging 14.9 yards on
kick and punt returns and compiled 25
tackles, six pass deflections and a
forced fumble.

Waugh, Waldie repeat
All-Ohio first-team
honors -
BLADE
STAFF, WIRE REPORTS
Marcus Waugh of St.
John's Jesuit and Aaron
Waldie of Southview have
both been named All-Ohio
first team in football
for the second straight
year by the Associated
Press.
Waugh, who has
committed to the
University of Cincinnati
as a fullback, was
selected in Division I
at linebacker, where he
registered 82 tackles,
eight for loss, and one
interception. He made
the D-I team at punter
last season, when he
filled in for injured
teammate Blake Haudan.
This year, after
offseason knee surgery,
Haudan regained his
punting position,
averaged 43.7 yards per
kick, and earned
All-Ohio first-team
recognition.
Joining Waugh and
Haudan on the D-I
first-team were
Whitmer's J.J. Fought
(quarterback) and Kyle
Andrews (defensive back)
and Northview
placekicker Jimmy
Spencer.
Fought completed 58
of 127 passes for 875
yards and nine
touchdowns and also ran
110 times for 620 yards
and nine more scores.
Andrews posted 64
tackles and one
interception.
Scott running back
Romen Walton and St.
Francis de Sales
linebacker Dan Waldock
were both named to the
D-I second team.
Waldie, who helped
Southview repeat as
Northern Lakes League
champion, repeated as a
receiver on the Division
II first team. He caught
50 passes for 820 yards
and 11 touchdowns.
Also on the D-II
first team were Maumee's
Corey DeWitte (defensive
lineman) and Alex Junga
(defensive back),
Central Catholic
placekicker Dan Amato,
and Tiffin Columbian
running back Justin
Reinbolt.
DeWitte made 98
tackles with 21 for
loss, five sacks, six
caused fumbles and a
blocked punt. Junga had
30 tackles and six
interceptions and broke
up six passes.
Amato was good on 27
of 28 PAT attempts and
10 of 13 field goal
tries with a long of 44
yards. Reinbolt put up
1,150 yards on 141
carries over seven
games. He scored 20
touchdowns.
Included on the D-II
second team were
linebacker Brad Goatley
of Maumee, offensive
lineman Chris Dyko of
Central, running back
Robert Orta of Defiance,
and defensive lineman
Cody Hufford of
Columbian.
Division I's award
for best offensive
player was shared by
Lakewood St. Edward
lineman Alex Boone and
Canton McKinley's
record-setting tailback,
Ryan Brinson. Cincinnati
Colerain's brick wall on
defense, Terrill Byrd,
was the top defensive
player, with Colerain's
Kerry Coombs sharing the
coaching award with
Cleveland Glenville's
Ted Ginn Sr.
Defending state
champion and No.
1-ranked Avon Lake
dominated the top honors
in Division II, with
running back Bobby Doyle
selected as the
offensive player of the
year and lineman Stephen
Zywotek taking the
defensive award. Steve
Hale of Olentangy
Liberty, Tallmadge's Joe
Vassalotti and Rich
Turner of Parma Normandy
are the top coaches.
Boone is a 6-8,
320-pound senior who
graded out at more than
90 percent on his
blocking assignments,
did not surrender a sack
and totaled 47 "pancake"
blocks for St. Ed.
Brinson, a 5-9,
175-pound senior,
carried 177 times for
1,685 yards and 16
touchdowns during the
regular season, adding
six catches for 128
yards and two more
scores. He owns most of
McKinley's game, season
and career rushing and
scoring records.
Coombs guided
Colerain to its perfect
record, the AP poll
title and a spot in this
Saturday's Division I
state championship game
against McKinley. Ginn
helped Glenville become
the first Cleveland
public school to advance
to the regional finals.
Doyle, a 5-10,
195-pound senior, racked
