The final score was Blufton 4, Ottawa Hills 2. The game was tied 0-0 after regulation and continued 0-0 following the second overtime.

My name is Larry Hoffman and I am running as a write-in candidate for the Bluffton School Board.
In August I became aware of a potential vacancy on the school board, with several friends and family members encouraging me to run for the open position.
I believe this is a good fit with my experience and background. I have joined the Ohio School Board Association (OSBA) to learn more about the duties and responsibilities of being a good board member.
