[edit] Background

Triway serves primarily the townships of Wooster, Franklin, and Clinton, and the village of Shreve in Wayne County, Ohio. These three areas agreed to consolidate in 1960 under the name of "Triway"[1] , and the school was opened at its current location in 1963. In the school district there are three K-6 elementary schools: Franklin Elementary, Shreve Elementary, and Wooster Township Elementary. Triway Jr. High School is grades 7-8 and then of course, Triway High School serves grades 9-12.

Triway's colors are purple and white, which were chosen by coach Marion Zody, who also named the sports teams the "Titans" after the New York Jets previous nickname.[1] The Titans have a long standing rivalry with West Holmes High School in all sports and with Orrville High School. Triway was a member of the Wayne County Athletic League from 1963-1970 (and previously as the Shreve High School Trojans) until joining the Chippewa Conference (1970-1976), then the All-Ohio Conference/League (1976-1989), and the Mohican Area Conference (1989-2004), before joining the PAC-8.

[edit] Sports

Triway has had many talented sports teams since the district was established, mostly in football and basketball. The most recent accomplishments have been:

  • In the 2004-2005 season, the boys basketball team became state runner ups.
  • In the 2005-2006 season, the boys basketball team again became state runner ups with the season's record being a district best of 26-1.
  • In the 2009-2010 season of Triway football, first-year coach, Tony Lee, coached the team to one of the best seasons in Triway football history with a record of 8-3, and going into the first round of the playoffs.

Prior to the 1963 consolidation as Triway, the Shreve Trojans competed in the WCAL as a representative from the area.[1]
