WELCOME Mr Sasala!

Meet one of our “New People in Plain,” Kyle Sasala!

Kyle is serving as our new Athletic Director at GlenOak High School. He joins Plain Local after spending the past four years as the Athletic Director at St. Vincent-St. Mary High School. He also previously served as an athletic director in the Cincinnati/Dayton area.

Fun fact: Kyle has traveled to both Italy and Greece! This summer, he balanced the transition to Plain Local with plenty of time spent with family and friends.

Kyle is most excited about the opportunity to make an impact on our students and student-athletes while building strong relationships with faculty, staff, parents, students, and the entire Plain Local community.

Kyle is pictured with his wife, Kyleigh, daughter, Brynn, and son, Crew.

Please join us in welcoming Kyle Sasala to GlenOak!

WELCOME Mrs Pickering

"Meet one of our “New People in Plain,” Alison Pickering!

She is already a familiar face in Plain Local, having previously served as head secretary at GlenOak High School as well as secretary for the Curriculum Department. She is now moving into the role of executive secretary for the GlenOak High School Athletic Department.

Fun fact: Alison has a love for all things Golden Eagle! She has a lot of houseplants in her office, loves Spirit Week and dressing up, and owns more green and gold clothing than any other color.

This summer, Alison enjoyed a family vacation to Seagrove Beach, Florida, with a stop in Nashville along the way. She also spent time swimming in her pool and enjoying a day at Cedar Point.

As a GlenOak graduate who still lives down the road from where she grew up, Alison is pictured with her family: her son Ryder (Class of 2028), husband of 17 years John, and son Gage (Class of 2029).

Welcome to the Golden Eagle Athletic team, Alison!

Recovery can make the difference between progress and burnout.

On today’s episode of Health, Hope and Happiness, GlenOak High School Athletic Trainer Alex Shaheen shares practical insight on the best ways high school athletes—and adults—can recover after a workout. From sleep and nutrition to load management, heat/cold therapies and the challenges of playing multiple sports, Alex breaks down why recovery is a critical part of overall performance and wellness.

In Part 1 of this conversation, he discusses what matters most immediately after a workout, how to properly refuel the body, and why understanding load management plays such an important role in training and recovery.
