CLEVELAND, Ohio — Glenville High School will open its high school football season against Massillon at Paul Brown Stadium. The game marks the first meeting between the two programs in almost 16 years, their last matchup being in the 2009 state semifinals. Glenville won that game 31-17 at the University of Akron.

Glenville coach Ted Ginn Sr. has emphasized the importance of starting the season with a significant opponent and location.

Paul Brown Stadium was chosen for this Week 1 contest, providing what many consider a prominent stage for both teams. This year’s opener revives a rivalry that has been dormant since Glenville featured players such as Cardale Jones and Shane Wynn on its roster.

The game is part of a broader slate of notable high school matchups in Akron, Canton, and surrounding areas for Week 1.
