Mason High School was crowned Ohio Division I boys state soccer champions after completing an undefeated (22-0-1) season.  They tallied a 1-0 victory over Mentor that had come in undefeated as well (now 18-1-4).  Senior Jack Clark scored the winning goal, but GMC Coach of the Year Paul Reedy was quick to point out that this was another total team victory.  Congratulations to the State Champions!  All-Conference teams are now posted.

The Mason Girls Soccer Team finish as the second best team in the State of Ohio in 2013, in what many thought would be a rebuilding year.  The Lady Comets fell 2-0 to a very good Walsh Jesuit team on Friday night in the State Championship at Columbus Crew Stadium.  The feat is a tremendous accomplishment considering the Lady Comets were the tourney underdogs and not expected to be back in the State Championship for the second straight year.
