Jaiden Wise Receives Top Honor on All-District Team

The All-Northeast Inland District football team was recently announced by the Ohio Prep Sportswriters Association and Massillon’s Jaiden Wise was named Co-Defensive Player of the Year.  He shares the honor with Akron Hoban’s Kharion Davis.  An outside linebacker for the Tigers, the 6′-1″, 200 lbs. Wise showcased his talents in the preseason and earned a starting position covering the wide side of the field.  He recorded 54.0 tackle points (2nd on the team), 11.0 tackles-for-loss (1st on the team) and two pass interceptions.  This was a tremendous comeback story for Jaiden in that he was unable to play during his sophomore and junior years due to injuries.
