by 11. CVCA Royals (12-1, 5-0 NCC, Lost State Semifinals 21-20 vs. Toledo Central Catholic)
The Royals made a run all the way to the state semifinals a year ago, and are looking to take the next step this season. While CVCA lost Joey Kopec (Rutgers) to graduation, his younger brother Tommy will take over the lead back duties for the offense, in addition to starting at linebacker. The Royals hit the road to start the season when they square off with Brecksville-Broadview Heights.
