What do you think when you hear names like Jesse Owens, Mike Schmidt, Jack Nicklaus, Archie Griffin, Bob Knight, and Woody Hayes? You think greatness... you think legendary. These are just some of the greatest sports figures from the state of Ohio. Beginning in June, Dayton Sports Scene with Mark Neal will feature Ohio Icons, a countdown of the 50 greatest sports figures the Buckeye State has ever seen. But the countdown would not be complete with your feedback!
Folks... we would like you, the 1410 ESPN Radio listeners, to let us know who belongs on this list. Email us at daytonsports@yahoo.com and suggest a player, athlete, coach, or media personality that have Ohio roots (born & grew up in Ohio) and belongs on the list. If your suggestion is included into our rankings, you'll win 6 tickets to The Meijer 300, which is Saturday June 12th at Kentucky Speedway! Please be sure to include your full name and contact information in the email. It's all on Dayton's home for sports... 1410 ESPN Radio!
