Kiner Named Ohio Division V OPOY
- Updated: December 8, 2020
The honors continued to pile up for Corey Kiner as he was named the 2020 OPSWA Ohio Division V Offensive Player of the Year. The senior helped lead Roger Bacon (10-1) to its first-ever Regional title.
Kiner, an LSU commit, ran for 1,866 yards, averaged 13.8 yards per carry, found the end zone 37 times (35 rushing, one receiving, one kickoff return) and amassed 2,133 all-purpose yards this past season.
A four-year starter, Kiner will go down as one of the greatest running backs to ever lace them up in the Buckeye state. He finishes his career with 7,130 yards rushing, the 10th most in Ohio history. His 116 rushing touchdowns, 125 total touchdowns and 772 points scored are all good for the third highest totals in the OHSAA record books.
