SPRINGFIELD TWP., Ohio (WKBN) — For the 16th time, 25 of the area's young professionals under the age of 35 were honored for their accomplishments.
WKBN was there Wednesday evening when this year's 25 under 35 honorees gathered for a group photo on the steps of the Lake Club in Springfield Township. It's the biggest event of the year for the Mahoning Valley Young Professionals group.
The honorees work in finance, economic development, health care, and funeral services, and most were nominated by their employers.
'The top young professionals in their fields, and we're just here to celebrate them based on their community involvement, their career attributes, and just everything that they're doing in our valley,' said MVYP President Steven Weeden.
Of the 25, three were named MVPs. They were Ashley Vidale of Sapphire Aesthetics and Wellness, Griffin Todd of HBK CPA's and Consultants, and Jessica Gaskell of Youngstown State.
The 350 people at the event were the largest crowd ever for the 25 under 35 banquet.

Ex-Ohio State Coach Delivers Verdict on Arch Manning's Reported $6.5 Million NIL Valuation

Ex-Ohio State Coach Delivers Verdict on Arch Manning's Reported $6.5 Million NIL Valuation originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The NIL deals being signed by college athletes continue to climb, and in most cases, it's not about raw talent, but rather about players with high visibility who have built up a brand. Advertisement One such example is Texas Longhorns quarterback Arch Manning, who hasn't yet made a significant impact on the field, but with his family's pedigree, everyone already knows his name and expects a lot from this 21-year-old. During a recent episode of the "Bobby Carpenter Show," Anthony Schlegel, who has had two stints with the Ohio State Buckeyes, his alma mater, as an assistant strength and conditioning coach, predicted Manning would have to lead the nation in NIL valuations. "People that were returning that would require the dollar amount, Arch Manning would be that guy," said Carpenter as he was trying to recall the best players in the sport. Schlegel and Carpenter were reviewing a top 10 list of college football players and discussing how Manning was ranked at No. 1 with a $6.5 million valuation. Carpenter, another Ohio State alumnus who played for the Buckeyes from 2002 to 2005, pointed out Manning's NIL total comes from endorsements only, not from Texas' boosters.

Texas Longhorns quarterback Arch Diggins / Austin American-Statesman / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images In April, Manning and clothing brand Vuori agreed to a deal that sent his valuation to its current estimate. Texas is projected to have spent somewhere between $35 and $40 million on NIL deals, according to Kirk Bohls of the Houston Chronicle. In his report, Bohls quoted a source that believes these years of big spending won't last, even among the nation's best programs. 'It's just unsustainable,' the source said via Bohls. 'The next season after this year, the whole world will be back to reality.'
