If you know or have ever heard of Massillon, it's probably because of football. High school football is king here. Massillon has a population of just a touch over 30,000 yet our stadium holds almost 20,000. So strong is the tradition and history, that baby boys at Massillon's hospital are given a miniature football at birth. A downtown mural by artist Eric Grohe depicts the city's football history.
Massillon has 22 state football titles
