• Lake Sturgeon Return To Four Ohio Rivers (1808delaware.com) — Lake sturgeon are being reintroduced to four Ohio rivers, including the Maumee, with thousands of young fish raised by the Toledo Zoo and federal partners now swimming toward Lake Erie. Ongoing releases, including annual Maumee River stockings since 2018, aim to rebuild a self-sustaining population, and anglers are urged to carefully release and report any sturgeon they catch. 
• Monday TigerBlog - Princeton's Heisman Winner (goprincetontigers.com) — A notable connection to Maumee pops up in Princeton football history: Heisman Trophy winner Dick Kazmaier grew up in Maumee before starring for the Tigers in the early 1950s. The story recounts his rise from undersized freshman to Heisman winner, his undefeated seasons, and his decision to pursue business and service instead of the NFL.
