1915 OL Season
League Note
The Professional Football Researchers Association lists 1915 as "no clear champion" and discounts Youngstown's competition as subpar. Canton and Massillon, the next two contenders, tied at 5-2-2. Very few records were kept in the Ohio League, so the standings and win-loss records are incomplete.
