EAST PALESTINE, OH- The excitement for the 45th annual Ohio-Pennsylvania Stateline Football Classic is building, and the kickoff dinner for Team Ohio set the stage on Sunday evening. Held at the Eagles in East Palestine, players from 22 different schools gathered with their parents to share a meal and bond ahead of the big game.

Team Ohio will be led by South Range Coach Dave Rach, with Offensive assistance from Tim Cooper of West Branch and South Range Defensive Coordinator Nico Mancuso. The final rosters will soon be released and will be available on YSNLive.com.

This year’s classic is set for June 20 at Geneva College’s Reeves Stadium in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania currently leads the overall series 29-14, including last year’s victory where they shut out Ohio in the second half to secure a 47-30 win at Salem’s Sebo Stadium.

EAST PALESTINE, OH- Your Sports Network has reached an agreement with executives for the Penn-Ohio All-Star Game that will make them the presenting sponsor for the 2019 grand exhibition held each summer.  This year’s game will be held at Geneva College in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania on June 26 at 7PM.

The game was streamed on YSN last year when it was held at Salem High School.  “This is our second year of involvement with what we feel is one of the most prestigious all-star football games in the country.  We’re thrilled to be more involved this year, and hope that we can continue to progress the game with our service to make it an even better experience for the student-athletes,” said YSN Founder and CEO, DJ Yokley.  “We live in an area that is a hotbed of talent for athletics of all types, it’s an honor to provide coverage for those who want more than just a highlight,”  Yokley added.

2019 will mark the 40th year of the Penn-Ohio Game, and each year the goal of the associations behind the game is to award as many scholarships as possible to student-athletes from Eastern Ohio and Western Pennsylvania.  Over the years, the QCFCA has awarded over $183,000 in scholarships from game proceeds to Ohio student-athletes.  In order to continue the area’s finest all-star game and provide continued scholarship opportunities to local athletes, local sponsorship is needed for the game.

“It’s such a great game and a great cause.  We hope this will be the beginning of a long and prosperous relationship with YSN.” said Penn-Ohio Football Classic President Tony Foster.

YSN will feature a live audio broadcast for the game and will have a tape-delayed presentation later that evening via their website and Facebook Live.
