The Greater Columbus Sports Commission and the Ohio State Athletics Department were awarded a contract to host the football championships in 2014 and 2015, with the OHSAA intending to move the finals in 2016 back to Stark County, which hosted the championships for 24 years (1990-2013). Due to the renovations underway in Canton at Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium, formerly Fawcett Stadium, the event will stay in Columbus in 2016 before moving back to Canton for two years.”
