COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Ohio Valley Publishing area landed a total of five players on the 2012 Associated Press All-Ohio Football List released Wednesday night for Division V and Division VI.
Meigs County had all five representatives and each choice came in Division VI, with Eastern leading that charge with three selections. Southern had the other two area choices in D-6, while South Gallia (2-8) did not have a player chosen to the Division VI squad.
Neither the Eagles (6-4) nor the Tornadoes (4-6) had a player chosen in the top three teams in Division VI, as the quintet of players from those respective schools garnered special mention honors.
EHS was represented on the D-6 special mention list by senior quarterback Joey Scowden, senior defensive back Alex Amos and junior offensive lineman Wyatt Westfall. Southern had junior running back Tyler Barton and junior wideout Trenton Deem were also chosen as special mention performers in Division VI.
