Helping to lead Chippewa back to historic Crew Stadium for the first time since 2021, senior Elena Moyer and sophomore Delaney Marshall reaped the rewards.
They became just the sixth tandem to earn All-Ohio honors for the Blue and White, and Moyer became just the seventh player in program history to be tabbed for the honor multiple times.
Both were key components to the Chipps run as Moyer picked up her second honor, and Marshall was tabbed with her first selection in Div V.
“It feels so good, and I am honored to be picked; I loved going out there playing with my team,” said Moyer. “It’s just a surreal feeling.”
As for seeing her teammate selected …
“She is like my little sister, it’s such a good feeling and I will miss playing with her,” Moyer said, smiling. “She hustles to every single ball; she always makes me laugh and she is just a bright person inside and out.”

Joining them in Div. V locally were seniors Nayeli Cruz (Waynedale), Molly Gasser (Norwayne), Kailyn Miller (Hiland) and Claire Haas (Smithville).
Cruz is as smooth as they come with the ball at her feet, Gasser is electric on defense, Miller led yet another talented Hawk’s team and Haas was the heart and soul of just the second Smithies team to make it to regional play.
In Div. IV, Orrville sophomore Emma Brede continues to be part of the centerpiece of the rising Red Rider program and was selected. Joining her was West Holme’s sophomore Charli Murphy, who led a Knights team that was rebuilding this past season.
Wooster’s Gabi Signorino was tabbed in Div. III as she continues to dynamite at the offensive end.
In a tough season, General’s standout Nicholas Morse continued to shine bright and earned All-Ohio honors for the second time.

“What a player and what a career he has had,” said Wooster coach J.P. Lytle. “He is always striving to get better and asking what’s next? He is always wanting to know what he can do to better his game. Just an incredible kid.”
In Div. IV, senior Jon Graham was at the heart of yet another run to regionals for Norwayne and was tabbed All-Ohio for the second time. Joining him was Orrville senior goalkeeper Gabriel Gonzales.
In Div. V, it was a pair of Hiland seniors who led the way as Zeke Bodiker and Logan Hershberger were honored. Also selected for the second time was Central Christian senior Silas Coleman, who was a key piece to the Comet’s return trip to the State Final Four.
This is the first year that the Ohio Scholastic Soccer Coaches Association did away with individual teams, so there is just one All-Ohio listing now.
