Colts' Riddle named to first team Division IV OPSWA All-Ohio football, Shelby's Ramsey second team
COLUMBUS — The Division IV Northwest District Lineman of the Year is now a first team All-Ohioan.
Clear Fork senior Kaden Riddle was selected as a first team All-Ohio offensive lineman on Tuesday by the Ohio Prep Sportswriters Association and is the lone Richland County first teamer in Division IV.
The Colts went 10-2 on the year and ran for 3,053 yards and threw for 1,615 more in large part to the senior offensive lineman. They won the outright Mid-Ohio Athletic Conference championship and won a first-round playoff game before falling to Elyria Catholic in the regional quarterfinals.
Riddle was joined by three of his teammates on the All-Ohio list in Division IV. Junior linebacker Luke Schlosser was a third team selection while senior running back Pawie Ault and junior kicker Adam Vanausdle were honorable mentions at their positions.
Schlosser piled up 80 tackles, two sacks and a fumble recovery to lead the Colts on defense.
Shelby's Issaiah Ramsey was a second team All-Ohio selection at wide receiver for the Whippets. He caught 50 passes for 1,047 yards and seven touchdowns during the regular season for an average of 104 yards a game leading them to a 5-6 record in 2022.
