Welcome to the official site of the Buckeye High School Varsity Football team. The 2008 Season is the 56th Season of Buckeye Football. The Bucks finished their 3rd season in the Patriot Athletic Conference in 2007. They posted a 6-4 overall record and went 6-1 in Conference play capturing their 2nd PAC Stars Division crown in 3 seasons.

The Bucks have posted winning seasons for the past 5 seasons. They went 8-3 in 2003, and 6-3 in 2004, 10-1 in 2005, 7-3 in 2006 and 6-4 in 2007 for a 37-14-0 record as the open the 2008 campaign. They made OHSAA State Playoff appearances in 2002, 2003 and 2005. Membership in the new Patriot Athletic Conference, consisting of ten teams, brought shorter bus rides. These last 3 seasons there were no bus rides to away games as all the sports were funded by the Buckeye Boosters and not by the school district. This season busing has been reinstated and the Bucks' parents no longer will have to do the caravaans. 

The Bucks opened the 2006 campaign with a first ever meeting with the South Urban Academy Bulldogs in a non-conference game and renewed an old acquaintance from the by hooking up with the Midview Middies for the 1st time since 1956.  In 2007 they played conference foe Clearview for the first time in school history.

Their 55th Season saw the beginning of the Billy Burke era as he took over as the 13th Buckeye Head Football Coach. Coach Burke took them to a 6-4-0 record and captured a Conference Crown in the PAL. He and the Bucks look to improve on that as they embark on 2008. 

Go Bucks! Buckeye Pride!!

The Ohio Helmet project is a site that is trying to create and post the helmet graphics of all 711 high schools in the state of Ohio. We submitted the Bucks helmet pictures in 2002 and an actual decal in 2006.  That gave the helmet graphic a cleaner look and larger size, it is also used on stat and record pages. Thanks go out to Kevin Dudley, the man behind the project, who has been working hard on this site. It is interesting to look through so surf by and check out. We have also helped out by submitting Wellington, Highland, Avon, and Vermilion helmet pictures. The Patriot Athletic Conference has been created on the site, so take a look to see what type of protective headwear all the other teams in the state are wearing by clicking on their link!
