LEETONIA VOLLEYBALL COACH’S CORNER (EP. 1) WITH LEANNA MEEKS

LEETONIA, OH-  The smell of the wax on the gym floor, the squeaking of new shoes, the look of hope in every student-athlete can only mean one thing.  The new Fall season has arrived!  This year YSN is putting emphasis on more schools and more sports, but without giving up an ounce of coverage for any of our partner schools in our inaugural year.

So this year, we’re sitting down with Leetonia Volleyball Coach, who in her third year is looking to build on the foundation that her program has constructed thus far.

Without further ado, LiB’s Market in Salem proudly presents Leetonia Volleyball Coach’s Corner with Leanna Meeks:

Rockets Offense Explode Bears Hopes of Week 1 Win

The three-headed monster of Rotz, Mince and Ballone helped the Lowellville Rockets soar past the Leetonia Bears 41-0 in week 1.  Behind the Rockets 3 running-back deep I-Stack formation, the Rockets ran all over the Bears defense for 4 scores.  Minch also returned a punt for a TD and Rotz threw for a 24 yard fade route to Hvisdak for his lone TD pass of the evening.

Leetonia just couldn’t get footing on offense and were held to under 100 yards of total offense.  Injuries to Roman Ferry, and teammates Brock Simpson and Derrick Grossen held 3 of the Bears primary offensive weapons out during separate points of the game to hinder the chances of scoring their first points of the 2017 campaign.
