South Wins Ohio North-South Classic

Ohio High School Football Huddle

I don't know whether to call it the end of 2010 or the start of 2011, but high school football was in the air Friday in Columbus.

It was the 66th annual Ohio North-South Classic all-star football game...and in the end for the seniors ending their high school football careers, it was the South players that walked off the field with a victory.

The South beat the North stars 25-7 for its second straight win in the series.  The North still leads the all-time series 38-25 with three ties.

Akron-bound Tyler Williams of Colerain High School scored two touchdowns to win the South MVP award.  Westerville South running back Jayshon Jackson, who was the North's MVP, was the game's leading rusher with 115 yards on 13 carriers.
