Grand Valley Local School District

Today our GVHS students got to give back to the local community by volunteering for Country Neighbor’s Feed the Hope initiative. Packaging over 250,000 meals, our students prioritized others with their time and energy. It is estimated that over 21,000 households in Ashtabula will be touched by their generosity. These Mustangs sure do represent character, hope, and service! 💙

JV Football wins 32-0 over Southeast!

The Grand Valley football team faced a test of adversity on Friday in Ravenna and aced that test. Trailing, 14-13, at the half when a fourth-down play from the 1 came up short, the Mustangs regrouped at halftime and dominated the second half en route to a 25-14 win over Ravenna Southeast. The win gives Grand Valley its first 2-0 start since 2017. "Our kids knew at halftime the other team was getting tired," Coach Matt Rosati said. "We were just going to keep doing our thing. We came out in the second half, played really well and we got it done." After falling behind early, the Mustangs got a five-yard touchdown run from JayAnthony Williams to knot the game at 7-7. Williams then gave GV the lead with a 70-yard interception return for a touchdown, his second pick-six in as many weeks. "JayAnthony was unbelievable tonight," Rosati said. "He had some big plays for us. He's so explosive." Southeast took the 14-13 lead, but the Mustangs took the ball down the field at the end of the first half only to be denied inches from the goal line on the final play of the half. From then on, it was all Grand Valley - especially on the defensive side of the ball. The young Mustang defensive unit dominated the second half of play and the Pirates never visited the end zone again. "We start four sophomores and a freshman up front," Rosati said of his young-but-athletic defense. "Lukah Mramor, a freshman, started and played really well. Jeremiah Corll was a beast tonight. Jessie DeLisle and Ashton Lampton are sophomore defensive tackles and Forrest Portman, a junior linebacker, also played well. "We're young, but that defensive unit played so well tonight." GV's offense kept churning, too. Luke Giddings scored on a flare pass from Nate Stewart to make it a 19-14 game, and then the Mustangs put the game out of reach on a 29-yard touchdown pass from Stewart to Carter Turk. "Nate is coming along," Rosati said of the Mustangs' first-year quarterback. "He's doing some really good things." Rosati said he was pleased with the way his team went on the road for the second week in a row and got the job done. "It was really good for our kids to have to work for it and grind it out," he said. "What was really a big difference in the game is we only have one kid going both ways and they had eight. We just wore them down and took over the game." "The boys are really excited - very, very happy." Upon their return to Orwell, the players and coaches again rang the victory bell with pride as they enjoyed a win before turning their attention to the home opener next Friday against visiting McDonald. Rosati pointed out it will be his first game at Grand Valley since he was a senior linebacker at Ledgemont back in 1984. "We've got a huge one next week against McDonald," he said. "It's going to be exciting. Home game, big crowd... it's going to be exciting."

Grand Valley defeats Southeast 25 to 14 to improve to 2-0!
