East Palestine moves to Div. V

COLUMBUS — The Ohio High School Athletic Association released its football division assignments for the 2018 football season on Monday, but the area only saw one change.

East Palestine, a Div. VI playoff team in 2017, was pushed up to Div. V due to increased enrollment figures. The Bulldogs are the fifth smallest school in Div. V and are the only Div. V team in the Eastern Ohio Athletic Conference.
