This week's edition of the Local Loop, Jeff Brewer of SportsInk-dot-com looks at the first year in the Suburban League of Nordonia High School.

Nordonia was admitted to the Suburban League when Barberton High School decided to go in another direction.

Nordonia Athletic Director Rob Eckenrode says he has been impressed with how the seven other schools in the Suburban League have treated the new kid on the block.
