Thome Honored By Ohio Chapter Of NFF 

A big congratulations to current senior Trevor Thome for being selected for one of the Northeastern Ohio Chapter of the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame's 2015 Scholar-Athlete Awards. This award is very prestigious and is given to the top area scholar athletes based on academics. Jim Tressel will be presenting the award this March to Trevor and the other recipients at the LaCentre in Westlake. Other keynote speakers include former Browns, Kevin Mack and Robert Jackson as well as Youngstown State Coach, Bo Pelini.

If you recall, former Buckeye Bucks quarterback/defensive back, Christian Petek, was given the same award for his academic and athletic achievements in the fall of 2013. Considering there are 235 schools in the area that have players as candidates for this award, As head coach of the Buckeye Bucks Football team, I could not be prouder of Trevor and all of our players who consistently perform so strong in the classroom. While we certainly emphasize the hard work and commitment to winning each and every season, academics and character as young people has been, and always will be the first priority for these young men.
