Sports

Football

The football program, currently headed by Coach Board, has historically played well. Reaching the playoffs seven times, the program won the 1970 state championship and reached the quarterfinals in 2006.

The legendary football coach Jim Rockwell built the program from the 1959 through the 1976 seasons. His record during that time period was 144-27-8. The Panthers won two state championships and 10 MVL championships in the 18 years with Rockwell at the helm. In 1970 Coach Rockwell was voted the Ohio Class AA Coach of the Year and his son Jim “Little Rock” Rockwell was voted the Ohio Class AA Back of the Year as the Panthers won the 1970 Class AA State Championship. In 1984 New Lexington Stadium was re-named Jim Rockwell Stadium in honor of the legendary coach.

Athletics

In 1989 the New Lexington boys' athletics team won the Muskingum Valley League Championship and included several individual league champions, one of whom qualified for state competition. The team had gone undefeated in the league throughout the season.

The following year's team also won the championship without being defeated. Two individuals and a relay team qualified for state competition.
