Cleveland.com boys basketball state rankings: Defending champ proving its one of Ohio’s best regardless of division

CLEVELAND, Ohio — While weather conditions put some games in Northeast Ohio on ice, plenty of showdowns took place in the last week across the state.

Lutheran East continued to establish itself as a top program, regardless of division, with its 64-55 win Saturday at Garfield Heights during a Scholastic Play By Play Classic showcase. That event also saw Euclid come away with a 66-51 win vs. Reynoldsburg, which had been ranked in the cleveland.com state rankings.

That has changed since last week, but Lutheran East strengthened its hold atop Division V. Euclid remains one of the top teams in Division II, while Garfield Heights’ positioning in Division III is unaffected this week.

GOP condemns Ohio candidate’s ‘kill Trump’ video as unfit for attorney general role

GOP condemns Ohio candidate’s ‘kill Trump’ video as unfit for attorney general role

WASHINGTON (TNND) — A Democrat candidate running for Ohio Attorney General shared in a video posted on social media that he was going to “kill Donald Trump” by executing him.

In a 40 second video, Elliot Forhan explained a hypothetical scenario in which he tries and successfully convicts President Trump, who would be sentenced to death.

“I want to tell you what I mean when I say that I am going to kill Donald Trump,” Forhan said.

“I mean, I’m going to obtain a conviction rendered by a jury of his peers at a standard of proof beyond a reasonable doubt based on evidence presented at a trial conducted in accordance with the requirements of due process, resulting in a sentence duly executed of capital punishment.”

The one-term state representative didn’t explain what crimes Trump had allegedly committed that would be worthy of the death penalty in the video.

Forhan’s video garnered a fierce rebuke from Republican leadership in Ohio such as State Auditor Keith Faber, who is also running for state attorney general but on the Republican ticket.

“That kind of vile comment makes it clear that Elliot Forhan is not qualified to be attorney general,” Forhan said in a video statement.

He also called on Democratic gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton to reject Forhan’s rhetoric, but she has yet to address it publicly.

Former state Rep. Jay Edwards, now a Republican running for Ohio treasurer, said Forhan’s video “fits his pattern” of seeking to cause harm to his political opponents.

“He posted “F*** Charlie Kirk” days after his assassination, has a history of rage and now openly fantasizes about executing the President,” Edwards wrote on X.

In 2023, Democratic Party leadership removed Forhan from all of his committee assignments and access to an office because of his abusive behavior toward staff and colleagues.

“I am going to kill Donald Trump”—dressed up in legal jargon about trials and capital punishment,” Edwards wrote. “This isn’t clever; it’s a deranged fantasy from someone seeking Ohio’s top law enforcement role.”

The National News Desk reached out to Forhan for comment.
