Here are Cincinnati's 10 best linebackers in high school football ahead of the 2025 season
With the start of another high school football season around the corner, The Enquirer is ranking the best players in Southwest Ohio, Northern Kentucky and Southeast Indiana. Linebackers are typically the leaders of the defense while calling out signals and showcasing their versatility by covering against the pass and crashing the gaps near the line of scrimmage to defend the run. Here are the best 10 linebackers to watch across the Cincinnati gridiron this fall, listed alphabetically. At the end of this story, remember to vote for the top linebacker in the city. Jakobe Clapper, St. Xavier A first-team All-Ohio selection and the Greater Catholic League-South's Co-Defensive Player of the Year in 2024, Clapper helped anchor a St. Xavier defense that led the league in scoring, yielding just 14.6 points per game. He finished second in the GCL-South in tackles (105), reaching double figures five times to go with 4.5 sacks, 11.5 tackles for loss, a forced fumble and two recoveries. A three-star recruit and a top 20 player in Ohio for the Class of 2026, Clapper's offer sheet included nearly two dozen programs before committing to Notre Dame in May. Elijah Depperschmidt, Campbell County Depperschmidt is coming off a junior campaign where he led the Camels in tackles (78) along with a pair of sacks. He had 11 tackles for loss, which ranked 11th in all of Class 6A. He was an All-Northern Kentucky second-team selection by the Northern Kentucky Football Coaches Association. Antwoine Higgins, Anderson More: Meet Anderson football's Ace Alston and Antwoine Higgins, with nearly 70 college offers As a sophomore last season, Higgins tallied 55 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss, a pair of sacks and an interception on a defense that helped lead Anderson to the Division II state championship game.

A four-star recruit, he holds over 30 offers, including from Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Indiana, Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Tennessee, Wisconsin and Oregon. Adam Kirtley, Taft Kirtley ranked second in the Cincinnati Metro Athletic Conference in tackles last season with 140 in helping Taft become the first Cincinnati Public School to win a regional title since 1992.

AS Monaco beats Arminia Bielefeld without a hitch
Never really worried defensively and clinical offensively, the Rouge et Blanc secured a third victory of their preseason against Arminia Bielefeld (0-3). They once again showed their seriousness. Facing Arminia Bielefeld, recently promoted to the German second division, AS Monaco perfectly controlled this match, winning 3-0 at the SchücoArena. Unbeaten after four warm-up matches, the Rouge et Blanc have still not conceded a single goal ahead of the three matches awaiting them this week.. Recap. ✍️ A second goal of preseason for Biereth At the start of this fourth friendly match, Adi Hütter positioned his team in a 4-4-2 formation, including Soungoutou Magassa's first start this season. Breel Embolo and Mika Biereth led the line in attack. And the latter was again effective in front of goal as it was he who opened the scoring with a shot at the near post to give himself his second goal of preseason (0-1, 24′). A new eleven at halftime The Danish striker then came close to doubling the lead shortly afterward, but failed to cut out a good cross from Kassoum Ouattara (26′). The Rouge et Blanc gradually gained the upper hand in the match, and our number 14 soon created another opportunity, but his shot was blocked (35′). However, the home side were wary of Tim Handwerker's attempt, which narrowly missed Philipp Köhn's post (38′). A goal down at halftime, the Monaco coach took the opportunity to change all his outfield players, including the returns of Christian Mawissa, Vanderson, and Folarin Balogun. Brunner and Akliouche make the difference It was a reshuffle that paid off immediately, as after a marvelous team move started by the Monaco goalkeeper, Paris Brunner doubled the lead with a header from Caio Henrique (0-2, 50′). It was only his first goal in La Diagonale jersey! The result was then definitively sealed 11 minutes later by Maghnes Akliouche following a quickly taken free kick (0-3, 61′). The Principality club's players were imperious in the second half, with Denis Zakaria (71′) and then Folarin Balogun twice (74, 77′) seeing their shots stopped by Jonas Kerksen, while Lucas Michal's shot went just wide (78′). At the other end, Philipp Köhn was reassuring in keeping out a long-range shot (87′). A third win and a fourth clean sheet This was the final chance in what was a perfectly controlled match for AS Monaco, who recorded their fourth clean sheet in as many matches, as well as their third win of the preseason. The Rouge et Blanc now face a busy week, starting with two matches against Torino at the Performance Center (Wednesday, 6 p.m., then Thursday at 10:30 a.m.), and a trip to Ajax (next Sunday, 2:30 p.m.).

On a roll! That's local roller-skaters who proved they had the right moves to be crowned British Champions! Red Rose Roller Skating Club, based in Turton and Smithills, travelled to Great Yarmouth to compete in the Dance British Championships. Paula Callaghan, 66, coach and founder of the club, said: "We didn't have anyone come below eighth place! "I wasn't surprised – because they work so hard and they've been working and working and working every single day. "But you never know what's going to happen on the day of the championship – they got so many good compliments from the officials too!" Toby Halpin-Foden, 16, and Jemima Corser, 16, came home with the top prize – placing number one in the Youth Couples category.
