OHSAA Press Release and Philosophy statement on Adapted Sports:

Introduction & History
The OHSAA was proud to announce the formation of an Adapted Sports Division of the OHSAA with Track & Field selected as the first sport to pioneer this movement in 2013. Athletes who qualify to compete in the Wheelchair Division shall not be separated according to the traditional school enrollment format of othersports, but shall compete as one division of athletics. Therefore, there will be no recognized team championship in the Seated Division, nor shall athletes competing in their concurrent sports championships beable to score points toward their team championships. However, Ohio seated athletes shall be able to compete for individual State Championship honors and shall be recognized by the OHSAA as having achieved this honor. The Ohio Department of Education estimates that some 6-8,000 students across Ohio will be
impacted by this decision. In 2013 events were added to the State Championship in Track & Field including the 100M, 400M, 800M, and—in the field events—the shot put. With this action, Track & Field became the first sport in Ohio to include seated athletes as a part of a State Championship level of competition and makes Ohio one of only a handful of states who do so. Extracurricular activities—and sports in particular—have an incredible impact on the emotional, social, and physical well-being of any athlete, disabled or not. Wheelchair
events in Track & Field will allow these athletes to represent their schools and communities in a way never before seen in Ohio. There are also post-secondary opportunities—NCAA programs and scholarships—available to these athletes. Additionally—although only an estimated 2% of disabled athletes rise to the level of “Paralympian” - the hopes, dreams, and encouragement of the pursuit of such a level of excellence is a cause worthy of Ohio sports.

In a OHSAA "winner take all" track and field state championship meet, Greater Miami Conference held their own against the best Ohio had to offer.

DICK'S Sporting Goods proudly recognizes the efforts and achievements of the 2025 GMC Girls Lacrosse season. The Greater Miami Conference head coaches have selected Princeton's Head Coach, Andy Short, as the GMC Coach of the Year, and Mason’s Kirsten Hurr as the GMC Player of the Year.

Mason junior Kirsten Hurr, a two-time First-Team All-GMC selection, earned the distinguished title of the best girls lacrosse player in the league. Simply put, Hurr was a dominant presence on both ends of the field. She ranked second in the conference with 77 goals, second in draw controls with 112, and third in caused turnovers with 21. A three-year starter for the Comets, Hurr has played in 54 games, scoring a total of 111 goals over the course of her career so far.

Princeton Head Coach Andy Short accepted the task of introducing the Vikings Girls Lacrosse program to the GMC as an official sport for the first time in the school's history. Competing against established conference schools was definitely a tall order for the Viking squad and their coach. In the end, Princeton gained valuable experience and laid a foundation for future success. In recognition of Coach Andy Short's dedication and commitment to the Vikings Girls Lacrosse program, his fellow coaches selected him as the "GMC Coach of the Year."
