Studying Up on the ‘Holy War’ Rivalry
St. Edward to take on St. Ignatius on Saturday for bragging rights, as well as a shot at the state title.
Tim Hudak takes the football rivalry between St. Edward St. Ignatius high schools seriously. He knows just about everything there is to know about the rivalry. The Cleveland resident has actually written a book — “The Game of the Year” — on the subject. The story of the St. Edward and St. Ignatius football rivalry begins in 1952. The teams took from a break from each other from 1959 to 1970 — there were too many fights. Hudak, a 1964 St. Ignatius graduate, will be in the stands on Saturday when the teams meet in the second round of the state playoffs at Brunswick Stadium on Saturday.

Eagles Outlast Cleveland Heights in the First Round of Football Playoffs
St. Edward escapes Tigers — and overcomes penalties — for a 28-14 victory.
CLEVELAND HEIGHTS — After opening their Division I first round playoff game against Cleveland Heights with a 25-yard run off right tackle by Dwayne Aaron, the St. Edward Eagles followed a simple recipe: lather, rinse, repeat. Over and over. The Eagles (8-3) ran 39 times and passed only once in a first half that separated the defending state champs from the upstart Tigers (9-1) by a score of 21-6. Cleveland Heights kept St. Edward on their toes using the outstanding quarterback play of Bryce Jones, who also played admirably at cornerback, and pinned the Eagles back deep as the Tigers’ punter several times. In the end, it was St. Edward pulling away with the win, 28-14. “They’re a good team, and any way you can get from point A to point B to…
