After a season-opening loss, Twinsburg's football team looks to get a win Friday

It was a tough way to open the season for the Twinsburg Tigers football team, losing to Aurora 29-23 last week. Even worse, star running back John Barton suffered a season-ending injury. But Twinsburg looks to get back on track Friday against the Nordonia Knights, who lost to Mayfield last week. Kick off is at 7 p.m. at Twinsburg Tiger Stadium.
