The winner of this game went on to be the State Runners-up four consecutive years in which they played,
1980 Massillon
2005 Massillon
2006 Mentor
2007 Mentor
with the winner also reaching the State Semi-Finals in 79 and 09 (both years Massillon).
Massillon scrimmaged St. Eds and played them in 7 on 7's, both times playing them close, Mentor played them close in week #1.
Massillon also handled Strongsville in a 'game like scrimmage', while Mentor handled them in week #2. (Sorry, I don't remember who Mentor scrimmaged).
Massillon is 1-0 on the road this year, but hasn't played even remotely well since the Strongsville scrimmage, (maybe the second half of the GlenOak game). Mentor is 0-1 at Home. Mentor's schedule has been slightly tougher than Massillon's. Who wins this one?
