Athletics

Bexley’s athletic program includes teams in the following sports: football, basketball, baseball, cheerleading, cross country, field hockey, lacrosse, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, track, volleyball, and wrestling. Bexley purchased artificial grass for athletes to perform on in the winter of 2003. Teams have won the Ohio High School Athletic Association State Championships[5] in:

  • Boys Golf - 2015
  • Girls Soccer - 2009
  • Boys Basketball - 1983
  • Boys Soccer - 2003, 2005
  • Girls Volleyball - 1977
  • Girls Tennis (OTCA)- 1975, 1976, 1977, 1978
  • Boys Tennis (OTCA)- 1975, 2017

Football program

In 2016, the program earned its first home playoff game and first playoff win, and went 11–1. The program also earned a playoff spot in the 2008, 2013, 2014, and 2015 seasons.

Soccer program

The Men's and women's soccer teams have combined for 12 state final fours since 1999. The men's team has won two state championships (in 2003 and 2005) and has appeared in multiple Final Four and Regional Finals. They have also had a flurry of All-District, All-State, and two All-American selections. The men's program won their league championship for 15 straight seasons until the streak was ended in 2009.[citation needed] The women have been one of the most consistent teams of their sport in the state; they were state finalists in 1999 through 2003, 2005, and 2006; state runners-up in 1999; and state champions in 2009. The women have also had multiple all-district, all-state, and all-American recipients.

Ross Friedman was a four-year letter winner and captained the team his junior and senior years.[6] During his tenure at Bexley, he led the team to two state semi-final appearances,[7] earning first team All-MSL as a junior, first team all-district, first team all-state and NSCAA all region as a senior.[8]

Wrestling program

The wrestling program has had individual successes throughout the school's history. There have been numerous state qualifiers, 10 state placers and one state champion.[citation needed] As a team there has not been a great deal of success until recently when they earned a Mid-State League Title in 2017 for first time since 1998. A team dual record of 17-2 was also set in 2017 breaking the previous season record of 16–3. The program currently has successful youth and junior high teams as well.

Softball program

The 2018 season was one of the most successful in program history with the team going 14-9 and winning two games in the state tournament (defeating Licking Valley and London). The Lions advanced to the district semi-finals and fell to Hebron Lakewood.[9]

Rivals

Bexley's rival is the Columbus Academy Vikings.[citation needed] This competition stems from Columbus Academy being just two miles from Bexley High School before Academy's move to Gahanna, Ohio. Other rivals of Bexley include the Grandview Heights Bobcats, the Bishop Hartley Hawks, the Whitehall-Yearling High School Rams and the St. Charles Cardinals.
