Columbus Grove High School has formed a winter guard team and competed in the Ohio Indoor Performance Association (OIPA) circut for the first time. Winter guard is an indoor competitive activity with routines combining dance, spinning flags, sabres and rifles.

UPDATE: The mobile health clinic will be at Bluffton Public Library on Friday, April 29.
Have you ever driven past the Bluffton Public Library, 145 S. Main, and wondered why there is occasionally a big ONU bus parked outside? From 9:00-11:00 a.m. on the last Friday of the month, the Ohio Northern University Healthwise program provides a mobile health clinic with free health screenings.
The Icon stopped by to chat with the providers and to take a look inside the vehicle. We began with a cheeky question:
Garrett O'Reilly (Galena/Orange) has been named the Heartland Conference Pitcher of the Week after helping Bluffton University to a pair of Good Friday victories at Earlham College over the weekend. O'Reilly follows on the heels of freshman Andrew Collinsworth (Westerville/Westerville South) who was honored a week earlier after a complete game victory over Manchester University.
