Corey Pargo, Head Coach

Now in his second year at Start, Coach Pargo is the

12th

head football coach in Spartan history. His 2017

team finished the season 7-3 (5-0 in the City League)

and won their third straight City League

championship.

Coach Pargo previously worked with the football

team at St. John’s Jesuit High School for five years,

where he coached the defensive line and linebackers

as well as the throwers during track season. He also

coached at Rogers High School for ten years, also

coaching the D-line and linebackers and throwers.

He was one of the most accomplished players in City

League history when he was a fearsome defensive

tackle for the Rogers Rams from 1985 to ’87. He

was also an all-state shot putter and still holds the

Rogers school record. He went on to play at Ohio

State, made the final cut in 1992 for the Cleveland

Browns, and played for the Rhine Fire in the World

League of American Football.

Coach Pargo is currently a Campus Protection

Officer at Start High School, and was also a

paraprofessional for TPS for 14 years. He and his

wife, Julie, reside in West Toledo, and he has four

children: sons Walter, Will, and Corey, Jr., and

daughter Genevieve.

Coach Smith played at Cory-Rawson High School and the

University of Findlay, and during the day he is a special

education teacher at Woodward High School.

TRADITIONS

FIGHT SONG In the city of Toledo

There’s a high school known to all

We’re right at the top of honors

But we also play football.

Start High teams are never beaten

All through the games they fight

Fight for the only colors

Gold and White.

Smash right through that line of <color>

Watch the points keep growing

Start High teams are bound to win

We’re fighting with a vim!

Rah! Rah! Rah!

See that line is weak-en-ing

We’re going to win this game

Fight! Fight! Rah! Team Fight!

Victory for Start High School!

Hey!

Traditions connect the past

to the present

to the future

ALMA MATER The Galaxies, Oh Alma Mater,

Shine in splendor down on thee.

With love, we bow our heads in honor,

Faithfulness and loyalty.

Hold the shield of valor higher,

Proud the royal colors fly.

In glory to the Alma Mater,

Dwelling of the brave and bold!

Glory to the Spartan Heroes!

Glory to the Green and Gold!

Win or lose, after every home game the football team joins the marching band

and sings the Alma Mater.

DAN SIMRELL STADIUM

Simrell Stadium is celebrating its 50

th season of Start football, soccer, and

track and field. This year it will be renamed in honor of the man who made

it possible, former head football coach Dan Simrell.

The current stadium looks vastly different from the one that hosted its first

game on September 12, 1969. When Roy C. Start High School opened in

the fall of 1962, it did not include a stadium, and for the first seven seasons

every football game was held away or at a neutral site.

Seating Capacity: 3,500

First Game: September 12, 1969

First Night Game: October 25, 1991

FieldTurf Installed: August 2018

Record Attendance: 4,000 (9/4/98)

Spartan Home Record: 121-103

Head coach Dan Simrell started a fund-raising campaign with a three-foot

tall metal barrel to collect spare change. The barrel read “A Penny A Day

So We Won’t Play Away.” Donations kept construction costs to a mere

$20,000 ($142,000 in today’s dollars); Pepsi-Cola paid for the scoreboard

and Toledo City Council funded the visitor’s side stands.

Spartan Stadium hosted dozens of City League and District championship

track meets over the years, including the first coed track meet of any kind

ever held in the state of Ohio (the 1972 City Championship). In 1989 the

track facilities were named in honor of Tom Inman, the longtime athletic

director and girls’ track coach whose “Golden Girls” won the 1980 state

track & field championship.

Night football was banned in the City League from 1964 into the 80s, so the

original stadium never had lights. Lights finally came to Spartan Stadium for

the 1991 Homecoming game after a two-year fundraising campaign by the

Lamplighters, a special committee of the Sideliners.

The stadium got a complete rebuild in the mid-2000s as part of the

construction of the new Start High School. Aging wooden bleachers were

replaced with modern metal seats that met ADA regulations, and a bigger

and better pressbox, restrooms, and concession stand were built from

scratch. FieldTurf was installed in August 2018.

POST-SEASON TEAMS

1978 City League Champions

Shoe Bowl Champions

The 1978 team was the first in Start history to be

crowned football City Champions. They ran

undefeated through the Red Division but entered

the Shoe Bowl as heavy underdogs to Bowsher,

an undefeated 10-0 team who had soundly beaten

the Spartans earlier in the year. Under the

tutelage of first-year head coach Pete Benedict,

the team trounced the Rebels in the championship

game by the score of 41 to 6.

It was just the beginning of a special year for an

amazing group of athletes. The core of the team

1978-79, including quarterback Bill Boddy, won

the triple crown: city championships in football,

basketball, and baseball. It was a first in the 52-

year history of the City League.

A 37-year championship drought was finally

broken in 2015. Not only did the team win the

City League title, they went 9-1 and qualified for

the OHSAA state playoffs for the first time in

school history.

The oddities of the playoff system meant the first

round game was held at Westerville Central High

School, on the outskirts of Columbus. Three

busses full of fans made the long trip to the game.

Spartan hopes took a hit when all-state running

back Stephon Watson tore his ACL on the first

play of the game, but quarterback Brandon

Winters picked up the slack and the team fought

hard before coming up short. The final score was

Westerville Central 49, Start 30.

From 1967 to 1990, the City League was split into Red and Blue Divisions and the division champions met in the Shoe Bowl.

From 1991 to present, the City League champion has been determined by regular season record, and the top two teams not qualifying

for the playoffs met in the Hall of Fame Game (1992-2010) or Shoe Bowl (2015-16).

The Ohio High School Athletic Association began its playoffs in 1972, when just 8 teams in each of three divisions qualified.

Since 1998, 32 teams in each of seven divisions qualify for the playoffs.
