Eastwood girls basketball has had a rough start to its season, but that’s because they faced off with two of the toughest opponents Northwest Ohio can offer.
Woodmore juniors Macey Bauder and Alayna Hahn were the first to score this season against Eastwood, but it came after the Eagles recorded nine straight consecutive shutouts.
Eastwood has sophomore pole vaulters, Dalton Hesselbart and Julia Sabo, who placed at the regional meet and qualified for the Division II state meet held at Pickerington High School North on Friday and Saturday, June 4-5.

Like grandfather, like father and now like daughter that is how it is in the Sabo family. Eastwood sophomore Julie Sabo was named Northern Buckeye Conference Field Event Athlete of the Meet after winning the pole vault. She did it by shattering a seven-year-old record, but the league’s award took her by surprise. “It was neat. I was not expecting to get it honestly, and just hearing my name was kind of shocking. It was a good feeling to have,” Sabo said.

Woodmore senior Ava Beam pulled double duty during the Northern Buckeye Conference awards ceremony, earning the league’s Athlete of the Meet Award and Athlete of the Year Award. It is the result of years of hard work running every day. “Her work ethic is incredible,” Woodmore track coach Jim McMahon said. “She shows up every day at practice and she gives everything she has in the workouts, the practice plan, the attention to detail she is one of those athletes who shows up ready to work and as a coach, you love that.
