This is due to an OHSAA violation involving off-season player workouts.
Dreyer is in his 11th season as Anderson head coach. He has a 99-29 record, including 42-4, over the last four seasons.
“I accept full responsibility for how this situation was handled,” he told WCPO. “I should have demonstrated greater awareness and better judgment, and I will learn from it”
An OSHAA spokesperson said that the school fully cooperated during the investigation.
Anderson eliminated Trotwood-Madison in the Division II regional finals, 38-7, in 2025.
