South romps North in all-star football

COLUMBUS — Chris Givens of Chillicothe had six catches for 123 yards to help lead the South to a 50-7 win over the North in the 62nd annual North-South high school all-star football game Saturday night.

Givens, who is headed to Miami of Ohio, had touchdown scores of 29 and 27 yards in the first quarter and was named the game’s MVP.


The South capitalized on five North turnovers — including three interception returns for touchdowns — in posting the most lopsided win in the history of the series.

Centerville’s Tyler Replogle, an Indiana signee, had a 13-yard interception return early in the game. The South led 30-0 at the end of the first quarter.

The North finally broke through midway through the third quarter when quarterback Charles Babb of Alliance threw a 47-yard TD pass to Elyria’s Dan Noble.

The South later added touchdowns on a 27-yard pass from South Point’s Chris Smith to Hilliard Davidson’s Bo Delande. Pickerington Central’s Jordan Jarell, headed to Central Michigan, capped the scoring with a 70-yard TD run with 1:46 left.

Smith, who finished 5-of-6 passing for 111 yards and two touchdowns, will play college football at Marshall.

I expect it was low or they would be boasting about it.

I watched it on ONN for about 3 minutes at the start just to see the crowd, of which there was none. Very scattered and empty- even at the 50 yard line.

The OHSAA would say there were 3 people there. I think a better estimate would be 3000.

The box score does not say anything about attendance, so your probably right, maybe 3000. Parents, friends and family in attendance only. I went to the game 2 or 3 years ago when Billy Relford played and was introduced on the field as an alum of the game. it was kind of embarrassing because of the low attendence.

By the way, I saw Morgan Williams of Mck ran 7 times for whopping -1 yard. I bet his college coaches can't wait for him to arrive! LOL!

TigerCoach,

The North just didn't get off like they wanted to...that's all.

Can anyone provide the attendance for when the games were in Massillon? They certainly were more than that.
