Buckeye Pipelines puts the spotlight each week on a high school program who has had numerous and notable alumni go on to play for the scarlet and gray.

Since the turn of the century, five Bombers have played for the Buckeyes, including current NFL player Justin Hilliard. Additionally, Paris Johnson Jr. played three seasons for St. Xavier, though he transferred to Princeton for his senior season.
