Ohio had 85 former high school players who finished on a NFL
roster in 2019. That trails only Florida, California and Texas.
Glenville has seven players who went on to play in the league. Of those seven, three — Justin Hardee, Marshon Lattimore and Ted Ginn — also are teammates with the New Orleans Saints. Chris Worley (Bengals), Willie Henry (Ravens), Jayrone Elliott (Steelers) and Frank Clark (Chiefs) round out Glenville's septet.
Joining Clark as part of Kansas City's Super Bowl LIV contingent are Anthony Hitchens of Clearview, Travis Kelce of Cleveland Heights, Darron Lee of New Albany and Spencer Ware of Princeton. The 49ers are represented by Kyle Juszczyk of Cloverleaf and Garrett Celek of La Salle.
