History
The Ohio Vortex could have continued the tradition that its predecessor had by calling themselves the Canton Invaders. However, founder Nick Bogdan wanted a unique name and not one that has been recycled by other sports teams. The team got its Vortex name as a result of the charity work that it does. He called the team the Vortex because the team plays for a variety of charities that pull people in from all over the state to help support the causes.
The Vortex began play in the 2009–10 season at the Cleveland Metroplex Events Center in Warrensville Heights, Ohio, before settling into the Canton Civic Center in Canton, Ohio. On October 26, 2012, the team announced it was moving to Oberlin, Ohio and play their home games at the Gameday Sports Center. The team then relocated to the Pinnacle Sports Complex in Medina, Ohio, after the first two home games. The team folded after the 2012–13 season.
