WILMINGTON — The Marietta College women's basketball team took to the road and led throughout much of their contest with Wilmington on Saturday.

But what I do know very well is what it feels like to not have a dog in this fight, a horse in this race, an Avenger in this Endgame. As a fan of the Washington – what’s their name right ...
WATERFORD — Early in the season, efficiency wasn’t one of Waterford’s greatest attributes. How things have changed for the better. Friday night in a high school girls basketball game against Belpre, the Wildcat offense was humming. In a 48-27 win, Waterford recorded an assist on ...
WESTERVILLE — The Marietta College softball team was selected to finish second in the Ohio Athletic Conference Preseason Coaches Poll released Friday by the league office. The Pioneers finished the 2025 season with an overall record of 20-15-1 and 6-10 in the Ohio Athletic Conference, narrowly missing out a spot in the postseason. “Landing fourth in the OAC preseason is a respectful place for our team, but not where we can be comfortable,” said Marietta head softball coach Jenn Castle. “Our OAC opponents are so strong, and every doubleheader is a fight to the last ...
