• High school football Top of the Crop for Oct. 5 (news-herald.com) — Mentor football fans will see the Cardinals slip to No. 5 in this week's regional "Top of the Crop" rankings after a 56-30 loss to Strongsville. The team's defense looks to rebound against Shaker Heights, while several other nearby programs, including Perry, Kirtland, and Mayfield, continue strong seasons that shape the broader Northeast Ohio playoff picture.
