It's always something:
You'd think Glenville coach Ted Ginn Sr. could enjoy the moment.
After watching son Ted Ginn Jr. score three touchdowns during Ohio State's victory over Michigan State on television Saturday, then having his football team defeat Austintown-Fitch in a Division I, Region 1 quarterfinal game, Ginn Sr. had no time to celebrate.
His standout linebacker, Freddie Lenix, collapsed during the team's postgame prayer after Lenix's legs went numb.
Lenix was kept at St. Elizabeth's Hospital overnight for observation and tests.
"He's got a bruised back," Ginn Sr. said, "but he's got full motion and no numbness.
"It was scary because Freddie is family. To be on an emotional high like that, then have that happen to one of the players . . . it's always something."
Ginn Sr. considered Lenix and the rest of his team fortunate.
"[Fitch] hits and we got beat up," Ginn Sr. said. "I can't imagine playing a team like that on an every-week basis. They were brutal."
Ginn Sr. said there weren't any major injuries and he plans on having Lenix on the field when the Tarblooders play St. Edward on Saturday.

Lenix a standout early on
Thursday, November 11, 2004
Eddie Dwyer
Plain Dealer Reporter
St. Edward baseball coach John Whelan is not surprised that Glenville senior linebacker Freddie Lenix has developed into one of the premiere defensive players in the Midwest.
Whelan, a teacher at Wilson Middle School of the Cleveland Municipal School District, saw the potential in the Tarblooders' standout nearly five years ago, when he had Lenix in class.
"I remember when he was in the eighth grade, Freddie was in a middle school, city-championship track meet. The kids he was competing against had starting blocks, track shoes and other track equipment.
"There was Freddie, in his high-top tennis shoes. And all he did was go out and win three events, including the 100 meters and the shot put."
Whelan said he noticed the 6-0, 195-pound Lenix's athletic ability early on.
"One day before gym class, Freddie was standing in the front of the basket. Despite having his school clothes on and wearing a leather jacket and a backpack, he took a standing jump in the air and grabbed the rim with one hand."
While Whelan, a St. Edward graduate, wishes nothing but the best for his former student, he is hoping Lenix doesn't grab the spotlight Saturday night when Glenville and St. Edward meet in a 7 p.m. Division I regional semifinal at Parma's Byers Field.

At Glenville, one player, Jamario O'Neal, already has committed to OSU for next season. Freddie Lenix, one of the nation's top linebackers, has yet to commit but is strongly considering OSU.

Q: I had a chance to see Freddie Lenix this past weekend, and I have never seen an athlete play with so much reckless abandon. I hear that he is getting overlooked at the next level because of his size. He's in the tweener category . . . not quite a linebacker and too big to be a safety. Are these college recruiters nuts? What's the latest that you've heard about his chances at the next level?
- Will Halsey, West Park
A: Hey, Will: I couldn't agree with you more on some of these recruiters. Freddie left a lasting impression on me last season, when he had doubledigit tackles against St. Ignatius in the playoffs. The speed, strength, toughness and pursuit are so evident. This kid has a heart that can't be measured. As for the next level, John McCallister, who produces the highly respected McCallister Scouting Report for colleges, sees the Glenville standout the same way I do, as a solid safety prospect at the next level, or maybe even a running back. In my opinion, at 5-11 and 200 pounds, Freddie has all the tools necessary to excel at either safety spot at the major- college level.

I dont see how lenix and ringer dunnot receive offers before some of these other guys like russel and rowell. They are both gonna be huge talents and if we don't offer they will likely end up in the big ten.... I know that supposably they still have grade issues but other teams are taking chances and I think they will get em up... Both are pure bucks..
