West Carrollton, Greenville to compete in all GWOC sports — except football — beginning next fall
The Greater Western Ohio Conference moved quickly to include West Carrollton and Greenville into its daily schedules.
Those two current independent schools were voted into the area’s super conference last week. On Wednesday, Nov. 11, GWOC commissioner Eric Spahr said all their sports except football will be included ito conference play beginning next fall, 2010.
“The Greater Western Ohio Conference has agreed to incorporate Greenville and West Carrollton into all of their respective divisional schedules in all sports (except football) beginning with the 2010-2011 school year,” said Spahr in a release.
“We are in the process of making the necessary changes to accommodate the transition. Conference administrators are excited to be able to provide the student-athletes of Greenville and West Carrollton the experiences and opportunities that come with GWOC membership earlier than anticipated. We ask for patience as we work through the dynamics of expansion and towards full conference schedule integration in 2012.”

Why can’t Greenville play against schools more geographically closer to them? When they belonged to the MML for the last year, it took over an hour ONE WAY to get to many of the opposing schools. Just not a good idea because these schools won’t be competitive with other members of the GWOC.

Greenville, some savvy fans will remember, was in the GWOC when it was originally formed 15 years ago…why they left is one of those mysteries … Now, the Wave is back where it belongs…As for travel, I live in Nevada, where one school, Tonopah in Nye County, travels no less than 196 miles— round trip— to play its “nearest” rival..I wouldn’t complain too much about traveling. It’s something ya gotta put up with…
