Â鶹ÊÓƵ

East Liverpool took home the traveling plaque by winning the sixth annual Â鶹ÊÓƵ Columbiana County Classic with a 66-50 score over Salem High School on the Quakers home court. With the win, the Potters tied the series at 3-3.

Representatives from the Salem and East Liverpool campuses greeted fans by handing out mini magnetic flashlights at the door and provided t-shirts that the cheerleaders tossed into the stands throughout the game. All players, coaches and cheerleaders also received shirts.

Always a favorite, Flash cheered and danced with fans of all ages.

At halftime, four students each received a $500 Opportunity Scholarship to be used at the Salem or East Liverpool Campus. Dean David Dees presented the scholarships to seniors Casey Miller and Corey Riesen of Salem High School and to Jamar Allen and Paxton Grimes of East Liverpool High School.

The Â鶹ÊÓƵ County Classic represents the strong foundation of learning in East Liverpool and Salem, as each community is home to one of the university’s two Columbiana County campuses.
