OSG High: Ohio Hockey Title Called A Tie After 7OT

((HT: Cleveland.com/Rozboril))

Columbus-St. Ignatius and Sylvania-Northview can both call themselves champs after the OHSAA decided 7 overtimes were plenty...

The game was tied at ones and couldn't go to a shootout due to a national rule- so, despite the coaches and players thinking they could get one or two more overtimes out of the folks involved, both schools are champs...

Here's the press release from OHSAA commissioner Dan Ross citing player safety and some other such things...

Blecch...

Here's the St. Ignatius presser with folks who agree and, at the same time, don't agree...

The game wasn't even the longest in Ohio history as an 8OT game wins that one...

So, the idea of everyone getting a trophy continues to permeate the landscape...

Double blecch...

A Tie...??? How Does This End In A Tie...??/

Here's head coach Bobby Collins and the play in question...


Winston-Salem State moves to 15-9-1 while Johnson C. Smith moves to 14-10-1.
