While Mooney has a great history, only 2 of the titles were won at the division IV level. With the way that thinthick split up the divisions, I would list Mooney in the I-III divisions where they have 6 of their titles.

Schools like Mooney may be "tops" in terms of enrollment but I hardly see them as "small school".

When Division 4 and 5 programs like Mooney & Ursuline can steamroll respectable Division 1 and 2 public school programs on a consistent basis, it only demonstrates once again one of the major flaws in the OHSAA division system.

Yeah I know - same ol' tired argument - but a fact is a fact.

I'd put Orrville in this category also. 22 Playoff Appearances, 9 Regional Championships, 3 State Runner-up finishes, and a Division IV State Championship in 1998.

Oh, I've always shown respect for the Orrville program. Now that the shoe is on the other foot, lets see how much you have.

1 win in the last 8 years is hardly "shoe on the other foot". And just off the top of my head we are like 26-11 against you since 1975...anyhow, to answer your question...I will never respect Wooster. LOL!

Actually if you're trying to be discussed in the Top 10 small school programs of all-time in Ohio, than 1-9 seasons don't cut it either. Go highjack a thread somewhere else. It supporters like you that give Orrville a bad name on here.

Highjack a thread?? Really? The only other place you post is on the Orrville Football Thread. Since you can't beat us...you may as well join us!

Actaully one of their FB titles was when they were in the MAC.

"Of all time" is a term that I guess is up in the air if the MAC teams fit the bill.
St henry has 6 since 1990.
Marion Local has 6 since 2000.
Coldwater has 3 since 2005
St Johns has 6 since 1997.
Versailles has quite a few, one in the mac in 2003
Minster kicked it all off in 1989 with their lone state football title.

Pretty powerful top ten there. That may be T H E list for small schools in ohio. You forgot Ft Recovery though.

Steubenville is now and always will be a WV school in reality, but I thought that we were going with OHSAA classifications for your thread.
