Talking and listening. They go together, but sometimes paying attention can be a challenge. A local expert on the topic will offer tips on how to pay attention effectively, to benefit job and life. The Sharonville Chamber of Commerce Business Connection Lunch Thursday, Aug. 29, features Steve Boyd, presents a serious topic with a mix of humor. He will offer tips to help develop better attention. Among his tips: » Ask questions. “When you ask questions, you will pay better attention,” Boyd said. » Use markers. “Use markers to focus on what you are doing,” he said. “It’s critical in life, in general,” Boyd said. “All kinds of bad things happen when you let your mind wander. “Auto accidents, problems with spouse, and dissatisfied customers. The list goes on and on.” The lunch program runs from 11:30 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. at Elements Conference and Event Centre, 11974 Lebanon Road. It’s sponsored by Claim Linx, which offers services related to the insurance industry.

Volunteers apply the finishing touches, tying the comforters to secure the quilts. At a recent gathering at Maple Knoll, the women spread out their quilts, each with a unique design, color and pattern of patches. “I love the fabrics,” Nancy Cooley said. “All the color and patterns, and the idea that somebody is going to benefit from it, I like that.”

“It’s for a good cause,” Dee Eaton said, “and the special joy is getting to see all of these beautiful quilts (put) together.” The quilts and comforters are donated to several organizations: First Step Home in Walnut Hills; Holly Hill in California, Ky.; Homeward Bound in Covington, Ky.; Lighthouse in North Avondale; Ronald McDonald House in Avondale; St. Aloysius Orphanage in Bond Hill; YWCA Battered Wom-

en’s Shelters in Cincinnati, and New Beginnings in Pleasant Ridge. Maples said donations of fabric and funds are always welcome, through www.quiltoutreach.com or by calling 561-2219. “It’s something that belongs to them,” Maples said. “These quilts go with them when they go, and they get to choose which one they want. She said the volunteers’ efforts make the outreach possible. “Everybody puts a little bit of love in it,” Maples said. “The kids feel it.”

try, community service, education, public service or special recognition. The nominee should have received recognition internationally, nationally, regionally or locally, as a celebration of accomplishment over time. The Distinguished Friend of Princeton Award will recognize those who have served the district in a variety of ways: longterm effort to raise funds; they like and what they’re learning in other classes, because it makes the language more meaningful and relevant to them. “When something is meaningful and relevant, it can be acquired.” Second-grade will include reading, using gestures and visual structures.

“After we finish all parts of storytelling, we can then continue to practice the structures through a variety of activities,” Bruce said, including songs, retelling the stories, and creating alternate endings. “The possibilities are endless,” she said, “and with young learners, it’s important to keep them moving from one activity to the next.” Primary Principal Jennifer Klein said the addition of Spanish to the beginning of the school experience supports the district’s goal of global education. “Research reveals that the early study of a second language results in cognitive benefits, gains in academic achievement and positive attitudes toward diversity,” Klein said. “Therefore, the implementation of an elementary foreign language program seemed natural.”

THE ART OF SAVING LIVES This is a free-flowing artery thanks to tPA. It may look like modern art, but it’s a lifesaver. tPA is a drug that breaks up blood clots, keeps arteries flowing and helps limit the damaging effects of a stroke. Today, thousands of neurologists all over the world use tPA, but the discovery happened right here in Cincinnati at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center’s Comprehensive Stroke Center. We continue to pioneer breakthroughs in science so we can perfect the art of saving lives. To learn more, visit uchealth.com/stroke or call (866) 941-8264.

MND students earn top 5 finish at NKU entrepreneurship challenge Four teams from Mount Notre Dame competed in the Northern Kentucky University Entrepreneurship High School Challenge, with one team earning a top five position and another the “Student Choice Award.” The challenge is designed to encourage the entrepreneurial spirit among high school students by providing a showcase for their innovative ideas as well as an opportunity to learn about business development from professionals and peers. Each of the 34 participating teams presented a business concept and plan to a panel of judges for review and evaluation. MND’s team of Gina Caccimelio (Mason) and Kelly McCabe (Loveland) finished in the top five with their “One Stop

Shop” concept for a drivethrough grocery store. Consumers could place their orders via website or mobile phone app then select a pick-up time when their grocery items would be ready. Mackenzie Beard (Wilmington), Stacey Pitman (Goshen) and Emily Webb (Sharonville) of team “EMZ” earned the “Student Choice Award” for a candy making company that would allow consumers to choose their own colors and flavors to create a customized chocolate order. Additional participants from MND were: • Chelsea Kavanaugh (Mason) with the concept for “The Latest,” an art gallery featuring only high school and college art students’ work with a rentable space for meetings and special

events. • Shari Baines (Pleasant Ridge), Melissa Deters (Mason) and Hannah Schuettinger (Morrow) with the idea for the “Pretty Pregnant Parlor,” a spa designed specifically for the needs of pregnant women. This is the third year MND has participated in the challenge and has placed at least one team in the top five every year. “Our teams did a great job answering tough questions from the judges both in one-toone interviews and in a group setting,” said Krista Brehm, chairperson of MND’s business department. “The students got a better understanding of what real-life entrepreneurs face as they develop a concept, draft a plan and work to make it a reality.”

Roddy wins Sharonville Viking Award

Sharonville media paraprofessional Trisha Roddy is the 2012-2013 Sharonville Viking Excellence Award. Roddy is a caring thoughtful person who is actively involved in the teaching and learning process and almost everything that happens at Sharonville Elementary. Her positive outlook and can-do attitude make her an essential part of the Sharonville team. Roddy is highly committed to Sharonville Elementary and to Princeton schools. She serves on the Sharonville BLT, she is the chairperson of the Home-to-School Connections Solutions Component, she serves as the Sharonville PFO president, she is a member of Superintendent Gary Pack’s Parent Advisory Council, and she works with Sharonville students directly in the mediacenter and by providing interventions to groups of students. Roddy spends countless hours before and after school preparing to fulfill all of her roles at Sharonville. Roddy understands the challenges faced by students’ families. She works hard to provide them with outstanding customer service and support. She works with parents to provide them with resources and a voice in the process at Sharonville. Roddy works hard to solicit a variety of parents to volunteer and participate in activities we have at school.

Saint Gabriel students earned more than $15,000 in profit from their annual candy sale for the school’s PTO. Thanks to the efforts of the school’s families, 616 boxes were sold. Kristin Watson’s seventh-grade class sold the most boxes and she was awarded $50 to spend at the Scholastic Spring Book Fair. The first-place seller was Alexis Dicks of Cincinnati, who won $100 for her efforts. There was a three-way tie among Peace Egbao of Cincinnati, Gracie Davis of West Chester Township and Rachel Chen

of Cincinnati for second place. Each of them received $50. Students who participated in the fundraiser were entered into a drawing for a Kindle Fire, which was won by Trevor Sheets of Liberty Township. Students in grade K-five who sold at least four boxes received a pizza party at school, while students in grades six to eight won a limo ride to a pizza party. This is the school’s only major fundraiser for this year and proceeds will be used to fund educational activities such as field trips and assemblies.

Her ideas and leadership are vital to a lot of the “extras” at Sharonville. She is a key factor in the back-to-school/open house, book-fairs, harvest festival, fifth-grade promotion, Veteran’s Day ceremonies, spelling bee, field day, Santa Shop, math & science night, literacy night, raising readers workshops, PFO fundraising, etc.… Roddy works hard to ensure we celebrate student successes and she works hard to promote reading and literature. Roddy is working with the principal on creating a Principal Hall of Fame to display student work. She also provided every child in our building with his or her own book to keep and read over spring break. Roddy is also working

with a few colleagues at establishing a Sharonville Book Club as a way to push high achieving students. She is a life-long learner and she models continuous improvement and a love of reading for her colleagues and for her students. She attends, and is actively involved in Sharonville staff meetings and professional development training sessions. She is also working on establishing a $1,000 Sharonville Scholarship to be granted to a student graduating from Princeton High School. Within the community, she advocates for Princeton, she is an active volunteer serving on several boards, and she enjoys spending time with her husband and her son.

Preserve summer taste by roasting tomatoes As I’ve mentioned before, I know when a recipe hits a chord with readers by the amount of response it generates long after it’s published. This is particularly true of seasonal recipes, like roasted tomatoes. This recipe is slightly different from one I shared last year. Tomatoes are in season right now and the homegrown/best are abundant at farmers’ markets. As for me, my tomatoes are the best I’ve ever grown and since most of them are the indeterminate type, they keep bearing all season long. I’m not Rita even begrudgHeikenfeld ing the groundRITA’S KITCHEN hogs eating their share, there’s that many! When I do find veggies and fruit that have been bitten into by Mother Nature’s clan, I just cut them up and feed them to my girls (my chickens). They make a quick meal of them, Tomatoes are full of lycopene, which is good for our hearts, men’s prostates and our immune system. Plus the yellow and orange tomatoes have just as much nutrition as their red counterparts.

Roasted regular-size tomatoes with herbs (or not) Preheat oven to 400-425 degrees. Cut tomatoes in half. Lay either cut side up or down (I laid mine cut side down but next time will lay them cut side up since I think that will keep more of the tomato flavor in). Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle on any herbs you like – basil, thyme, rosemary all

work well. But be sure and chop them up fine. I also like to add salt and pepper. Roast until skins start to look spotty if you are roasting skin side up. Otherwise, roast until tomatoes look wrinkled and are soft. Let cool and, if you like, remove skins. The first time I made them I didn’t remove the skins, but when I used them in cooked dishes they were a little tough. My suggestion is to remove them or put them in the blender or food processor and the skins will process small enough. You will wind up with more of a puree if you put them through the blender or food processor, but the bonus is you get the nutritious benefits of the skin. Freeze in desired quantities.

Roasted cherry tomatoes with herbs and garlic This is nice since everything is mixed in a boil and then just poured onto a sprayed pan to roast. Delicious as a side dish and, if you want to freeze them, you can either leave the skins on (they may be a bit tough) or puree them as directed above. Now you can also roast these plain, with just a sprinkling of salt and pepper and oil. Preheat oven to 400-425 degrees. For every pint of cherry or grape tomatoes, add a teaspoon of minced garlic, a drizzle of olive oil to coat nicely, and salt and pepper. Just mix this up in a bowl. If you have any herbs, again like basil, thyme or rosemary, chop up fine and add to taste. Pour

onto sprayed baking pan and roast until skins look spotty and a bit puffy, about 20 minutes.

Baked potato nachos with secret ingredient

For Bart L., who likes this spicy appetizer at restaurants but wants to make them at home. By boiling potatoes first, they bake up really nice in the oven. And the secret ingredient that makes these so different? Ranch dressing!

10 medium red or Yukon gold potatoes 1 pouch ranch salad dressing Jalapeño slices (optional) 16 oz. shredded Mexican blend or favorite cheese 16 oz. sour cream Green onions or chives, sliced thin

Cook potatoes with skin on: cover with cold water and a dash of salt. Bring to boil, reduce heat, cover and cook just until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and cool so that you can cut them into thick slices. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Put slices in single layer on sprayed baking sheets. Sprinkle each with the dressing mix, jalapeños, and the cheeses. Bake uncovered for 8-10 minutes or until cheese melts. Dollop with sour cream and onions or chives.

Obamacare proving unworkable for American people

After 150 years, Morgan’s Raid is still controversial

TRI-COUNTY

CH@TROOM Aug. 14 question Should U.S. lawmakers and their staffs continue to receive a federal contribution toward the health insurance that they must purchase through soon-to-open exchanges created by President Barack Obama’s signature healthcare law to prevent the largely unintended loss of healthcare benefits for 535 members of the Senate and House of Representatives and thousands of Capitol Hill staff. Why or why not?

“Yes. Everyone scheduled to receive a contribution from employers should still receive that contribution, no matter for whom they work. “If the conservatives and Obama-haters would just give it a chance they'd see all the good that the Affordable Care Act can accomplish instead of trying to repeal it 40 more times in Congress. “It's meant to help the poor and uninsured just like the New Deal back 70-odd years ago during the Great Depression." TRog

“Although it would be nice if making lawmakers pay for their own health care would bring their attention to the plight of most Americans, the cost of their personal insurance is chump change compared to the campaign contributions they get from the special interests in the medical field. “Since Citizen's United it's a free-for-all for rich individuals and corporations. The only thing holding some of the worst of them back is the sheer impracticality of most of their ideas. “What would work better is if more citizen voters would pay more attention to how some of these creeps in Columbus and Washington vote, and give them unlimited vacation time at the next election. “Unfortunately with the media breaking into venues, which allow people to get the news they want as opposed to the news that is actually true, we're going to have an uphill battle getting any sort of consensus on public health in our nation. “Fortunately, the Affordable Care Act is already cutting costs for many of us, and even if it doesn't solve the bigger problems it will set the stage for continued dialogue.” N.F.

“The 535 members of Congress (and their staffs) should be subject to exactly the same regulations and laws as other American Citizens. They should contribute to their health care as the general public does. They should also pay into Social Security (FICA). There should not be any retirement benefits above Social Security unless they have served 30 years. Better yet have term limits and force them to get real jobs. Too often these makers of the law never held a real job and are ‘above the law.’ They pass laws that apply to all except them. Go figure!" T.D.T.

“Kind of a moot question. The Congress will do whatever is best for them and not what is best for the American people. Period.” J.Z.

“The Democrats yes, the Republicans no! Seriously, whether its health care or retirement, government should not be allowed to vote its own members and staff better benefits than those available to the rest of the population. “A single term in congress shouldn't entitle you to anything more than Cobra benefits while

you look for new employment. If ex members of government had to survive on Medicare or Medicaid and Social Security those would be good programs, and yes, we all might have to contribute a bit more to ensure their long-term future.” D.R.

“If these people are already receiving a contribution from the government (their employer) it should continue. If this means they will not have to get Obama-care like the rest of us – shame on them! “We should all be in this boat together. That way if and when it starts to sink they'll have an incentive to fix or replace it.” R.V.

“Of course not! But this rodeo clown has set a new standard of picking winners and losers for political reasons, paybacks for contributors and favors to his base. “Large corporations, unions and the IRS and now lawmakers are getting special exemptions from this disasterous law. Most hard working Americans are not surprised by a good screwing from the federal government, but unfairness to this degree creates tremendous anger and animosity. “When is the last time you said: 'Wow, this will be great' when you heard of a new law or government program??” D.J.H.

Aug. 7 question Should the minimum wage for fast-food workers be doubled from $7.25 to $15 an hour and should they be given the right to unionize? Why or why not?

“Raising the minimum wage for anyone is a stupid idea. If we raised the minimum wage, what would happen to the price of everything these workers produce or the services they provide? They would go higher, of course, by the same proportion of the wage increase. Then, those of us who don’t make minimum wage will see our costs increase so we would need a proportionate wage increase to keep from falling behind. Prices would continue to increase leading to a loss of jobs through outsourcing because the costs of production in the U.S. is too high. Those on fixed incomes would find it increasingly difficult to make ends meet which would mean the end of their independence.” David Greschel

“I’m no economist but something needs to change. Income disparity is a real and growing problem. I don’t think it’s fair that the owners of many large corporations make exorbitant amounts of money while paying their workers so little, leaving taxpayers to fill the income gap, with Medicaid, food stamps, etc. As with many other big institutions, unions are far from perfect, but historically they have helped level the playing field and promote the growth of then middle class.”

Princeton under construction for improvement on gridiron By Mark D. Motz mmotz@communitypress.com

SHARONVILLE — Appropriate, perhaps, to see earth-moving equipment in action across Chester Road from Viking Stadium. Like the buildings in the distance, Princeton High School’s football team is under construction. The Vikings are 10 years removed from their last Greater Miami Conference league championship in 2003. They are six years past their last playoff appearance in 2007. After a 1-9 Croley season with a 1-6 record in the GMC last year, head coach Gary Croley sees better things in 2013. Look for a radical shift in offensive philosophy as Princeton adopts an Oregon-style spread offense that emphasizes speed, attempting to run a play every 13 seconds. That suits senior quarterback and co-captain Tyrell Gilbert just fine. Gilbert - who has committed to the University of Cincinnati to play free safety next year – likes the idea of putting the ball in a lot of different people’s hands. “The key to making a spread work is getting the ball to all our weapons,” he said. “It was a rough season (last year). I just want to make sure we go out and play hard for each other.”

2013 PRINCETON SCHEDULE Aug. 30 – at Xenia Sept. 6 – PICKERINGTON NORTH Sept. 13 – at La Salle Sept. 20 – at Fairfield Sept. 27 – LAKOTA EAST Oct. 4 – COLERAIN Oct. 11 – at Oak Hills Oct. 18 – LAKOTA WEST Oct. 25 – at Hamilton Nov. 1 – MIDDLETOWN All games at 7:30 p.m. unless noted.

So does senior co-captain and wide receiver Marcus Plackey. “It gives everyone a chance to get the ball, not just a couple guys,” he said. “You can’t key on any one player or any one play, because we can run and pass out of every formation. (The transition) hasn’t been a struggle at all. With all the connections between the players for all the years we’ve played together, it’s been pretty good.”

Joining Gilbert and Plackey in the captaincy are senior center Bobby Minnich, who has garnered some interest from schools like Boston College, senior cornerback Tracy Fombie and senior wideout and safety Bryant Holloway. “We feel like everyone is doubting us and we have to play with a chip on our shoulder,” Holloway said. “(As captain) you have to put your team on your back and lead by example”

Frombie said, “We’re keeping each other together and working hard. Hard work and dedication is what it’s going to take to win the GMC.” Having perennial league favorite Colerain back on the schedule is exciting for Minnich. “I actually think it helps,” he said. “You have to know how you stand face to face. But we think we have a legitimate chance to win.”

Wyoming’s Cowboys hope to corral football playoff berth By Nick Dudukovich presspreps@gmail.com

WYOMING — The Wyoming Cowboys and head coach Aaron Hancock want to take the next step. After finishing 7-3 last year in Hancock’s first season, the Cowboys just missed a postseason berth. It’s been two years since Wyoming last suited up for the state playoffs, but with an experienced group of seniors set to return, the Cowboys could find themselves back in the postseason. Those seniors are creating a mindset where the team never gets comfortable or complacent, and that could be the key to playing an extended schedule later this fall, according to Hancock. “I think we have a belief that we’re going to win when we walk on the field,” he said. “This senior class really has that mentality and we’re not going to settle. We’re going to get better and that’s how it is.” Offensively, the Cowboys will return several weapons, while possessing good team speed. The squad will also operate at a fast tempo under the leadership of senior quarterback Will Marty. As a junior, Marty led the CHL by throwing for 2,413 yards and running for 489 more while totaling 31 touchdowns en route to garnering first-team all-league acclaim. Hancock expects to see that same type of offensive output.

2013 WYOMING SCHEDULE Aug. 30 – AIKEN, 7:30 p.m. Sept. 6 – at Turpin, 7:30 p.m. Sept. 12 – MCNICHOLAS Sept. 20 – MADEIRA Sept. 27 – TAYLOR Oct. 4 – at Reading Oct. 11 – DEER PARK Oct. 17 – at Mariemont Oct. 25 – INDIAN HILL Nov. 1 – at Finneytown, 7:30 p.m. All games at 7 p.m. unless noted.

“The offense is going to score a lot of points,” he said. “We do some things that are difficult to defend and prepare for.” Running back Terrell Dailey is also back for his senior campaign after a stellar junior season in which he scrambled for 1,016 yards and 16 touchdowns. The offense should also be sparked by inside slot receiver Dominic Vamosi, who caught 34 passes for 571yards and five touchdowns as a junior. With wideout and speedster Jalen Fox as an option on the edge, along with established offensive linemen Bo Graham

and Devon Davis providing protection, Marty and the Cowboys could be poised to pile up some serious yards. Defensively, Wyoming must improve on stopping the run, which was a major focus during the offseason, according to Hancock. The team’s linebackers will have a lot to do with making that happen, and the unit should be in good shape with the return of Casey Howell, who was fifth in the CHL last season with 102 tackles. He’ll be aided by Jermaine Sorrells, who is moving back to the position after playing on the

defensive line in 2012. Lineman Griffin O’Gara should also play a vital role in the effort. “The linebacker corps we have this year has really impressed me,” Hancock said. “We’ve got about four linebackers that can play varsity football for us and I think we have depth (there) and on the defensive line.” Opposing quarterbacks might find it difficult to try aerial attacks against Wyoming, as the team returns five defensive backs led by Fox, who was thirdteam All-Ohio in 2012. On special teams, junior Tucker Marty will handle kick-

ing duties after suffering through an injury as a sophomore. “He’s healthy and can bomb the ball,” Hancock said. “I think he’s really, really good.” Wyoming kicks off its second season under Hancock at home against Aiken Aug. 30. The action begins at 7:30 p.m. With a year under his belt, Hancock doesn’t have to spend the time he did getting his student-athletes to buy into a new system, as he did a year ago. He believes this team can accomplish its playoff goal and that he has the players to make it happen. “I feel confident about our ability to take this team to the next level,” he said. “This senior leadership is tremendous.”

Defending state champion Moeller football reloads By Scott Springer sspringer@communitypress.com

KENWOOD — The sound you’ve heard off of Montgomery Road just past Ronald Reagan Highway is a familiar one this time of year. It’s Moeller High School football team reloading for another run. A little more than nine months since winning the Ohio Division I trophy in Canton, the Crusaders are back with their typically demanding schedule and high expectations. “We’re excited about the season,” coach John Rodenberg said. “I thought we worked out pretty hard this winter. This is a new team. We had a lot of guys graduate last year and they had their own character. This is a new team with a new character.” Stepping in for the graduated Spencer Iacovone at quarterback is Gus Ragland. Ragland played on Moeller’s state football and baseball championship teams with Iacovone and was part of the offense a year ago. “It was important for Gus to start at wide receiver to get that game experience last year,” Rodenberg said. “We think it will be a smooth transition because they’re similar-type styles.” When Ragland hands off, he’ll have a committee of Dean Meyer, Jack Gruber, John Heywood and Sterling Noes looking to chew up yards behind the Crusader line coached by former UC Bearcat Doug Rosfeld.

The line features Steven Langenkamp going to Ohio University, and Rodenberg expects Jared Jacon-Duffy to also get offered. Lining up wide are speedy junior Chase Pankey and lanky senior Isaiah Gentry. Both are strong members of Moeller’s track team in the spring.

“We might have two of the fastest receivers we’ve had in a long time,” Rodenberg said. “It should open up our vertical game a little bit this year.” Gentry has been offered by Akron and Kent and could be a big game away from attracting more attention. As always, the Crusaders have some nice tightend targets, including one who could be a factor for the next three years in sophomore Jake Haussman, who’s already at 6foot-4 and 215 pounds. “We’re loaded with about

three to four tight ends that have great potential,” Rodenberg said. “We’re excited about what we can do in formation.” Defensively, 6-foot-6 safety Sam Hubbard will turn more heads, especially after signing with Ohio State. Coordinating again is veteran Jim Lippincott, who teams up with offensive assistant Steve Klonne to form Moeller’s “Golden Boys” under Rodenberg. “We’ve got a lot of experience,” Rodenberg said. “It’s easy to work with these guys. They all do their job well and when they do that, it’s easy to control it.” Once again, Moeller’s schedule is not for the weak at heart.

All games at 7:30 p.m. unless noted.

“We did pick up a Canadian team that’ll be a little bit different,” Rodenberg said. “The Indianapolis Pike team is going to be a very athletic team. I tell you the team that worries me the most is the Louisville St. X team. I thought they were young last year and tough. That’s a heck of a test before we go into league play.”

Bacon’s Huxel hopes experience brings success By Tom Skeen

tskeen@communitypress.com

ST. BERNARD — All things point to a major turnaround for the Roger Bacon Spartans in 2013. After a 0-10 2012 season, coach Kevin Huxel likes what he’s seeing so far. “We can do a lot,” the coach said. “I think we have a chance to be really productive and be able to move the ball. Everybody is saying that this time of year, but optimism is high at Roger Bacon right now.” Much of the optimism is due to the return of quarterback Ruggiero DeLuca, who tossed for more than 1,300 yards last season. “He kept getting better as the year went on,” Huxel said. “… He can make the throws. He’ll make all the throws necessary this season.” Running back Eli Nixon is also back after rushing for a team-high 527 yards in his first year at the position. With a full year under his belt at the position Huxel believes he’s ready for a big year. “… This year he’s understanding the holes and where to cut and how to get to the linemen’s feet,” he said. “He’s not just running, but he’s doing a lot more things and understanding how to run the ball.” You can’t succeed at either position without an offensive line. Four of the five linemen are back from last year and one of them, Sam Brown, has the ability to be special, according to Huxel. “He’ll be getting some looks from the big (colleges). He’s a

big kid and when he puts his mind to it, he can be the best player on the field. There’s no doubt about it.” Also back on the line are Ryan Barnes and Paul Tepe. Max Bishop is back, but will miss a “couple” games due to knee surgery, according to the coach.

On defense the Spartans return their top seven leading tacklers from last season. While that excites Huxel, the addition of Reading transfer and linebacker George Nicholas has the coach really liking what he sees. “It helps a lot,” he said of the

transfer. “… That’s going to add another dimension. He brings a more physical presence to us. We are looking at good things.” Freshman Amir Reed is another addition in a secondary that returns Slaton Brummett, John Byrd, Andrew Hawkins and Nixon.

Bombers bring explosive offense to the table By Tom Skeen tskeen@communitypress.com

SPRINGFIELD TWP. — Defenses better be prepared for the bevy of offensive weapons the St. Xavier Bombers are going to bring to the field in 2013. Senior quarterback Nick Tensing returns after throwing for nearly 2,000 yards and 17 touchdowns to just six interceptions. Coach Steve Specht not only loves what his quarterback can do on the field, but also what he brings to the huddle. “(I’ve seen) tremendous growth as far as leadership is concerned,” Specht said. “… He’s able to do things that we wouldn’t J. Hilliard be able to do with anybody else. He’s really taken to the leadership role.” Tensing is one of four team captains along with running back C.J. Hilliard, left tackle Rich Kurz and the versatile Ryan Frey. Hilliard torched defenses for nearly five yards per carry and nine touchdowns in 2012. After hitting the weight room in the offseason, defenses should expect to see more of the big back this season. “… C.J. is practicing harder than I’ve ever seen,” Specht said. “He finally learned how to practice. He’s at a different level than he’s been the previous three years, but that’s how it’s supposed to be when you’re going into your senior year.” For the Tensing-Hilliard

The Bombers begin the season ranked No. 24 in the nation by Rivals.com and, according to MaxPreps, have the 10th-toughest schedule in the country.

the Greater Catholic League meets while at St. Xavier. During high school, he also swam for the Powel Crosley Jr. YMCA Tigersharks. His family joined Wyoming Swim Club last summer and Hessler began swimming for the Swordfish Team. Hessler works as a lifeguard at the club. He will be attending Xavier University and will major in occupational therapy.

Alexandra Abel

Abel started swimming at age 7 for the Swordfish Team at the Wyoming Swim Club. She continued that winter with the Powel Crosley Jr. YMCA Tigersharks and later swam for the Cincinnati Marlins. At age 8 her medley relay team broke the Swordfish record. They are still on the record board today. Alex was awarded the Swordfish’s Irene Dundon Memorial Award for dedication to swimming after the 2012 season. Abel swam for Wyoming Middle School and Wyoming High School. She earned Rookie of the Year her freshman year and ended her career as captain of the varsity team. She will attend The Ohio State University in the fall. Her friends and memories from the swim club will last her a lifetime.

Alex Burgess

Burgess joined the Swordfish as a 6 year old, where he developed a love for competitive swimming that continues to this day. Now in his 13th year as a Swordfish, Burgess holds both Swordfish team and PPSL league records in the 11-12 50 Free and 13-14 100 Free. After the 2011 season, Burgess was awarded the Swordfish’s Irene Dundon Memorial Award for dedication to swimming. Alex has many fond memories of his time with the team, but the highlight has been coaching the 9-10 age group this

summer. The love for swimming that began at the Wyoming Swim Club led Burgess to join the Powel Crosley Jr. YMCA Tigersharks at age 7, and he has been a year-round swimmer there ever since. Alex set five individual Tigershark team records in freestyle events ranging from 50 Free to the1650, and swam on relays that set 3 team relay records. Burgess swam for the Wyoming Middle School team, and still holds the southern Ohio middle school record in the 100 free. In high school, Burgess was a varsity swimmer all four years at St. Xavier, earning recognition as an Academic AllAmerican his senior year by the National Interscholastic Swimming Coaches Association of America. Burgess will attend Miami University in the fall and study engineering.

Erin Engelhardt

Engelhardt was a Swordfish since she was 5 years old. Some of her earliest memories are of summer seasons with former

coaches Michael Neuss and David Jolson. She learned to swim at Wyoming Swim Club, and later swam for the Powel Crosley Jr. YMCA Tigersharks and then the Wyoming High School team until her graduation. Swimming is something that has been a constant in Engelhardt’s life and she credits the Swordfish for teaching her to love the sport. She has many favorite memories, but coaching the 9-10’s this season by far takes the cake. Engelhardt hopes to work with children as an art therapist someday, and will study art and social work at St. Olaf College in Minnesota in the fall.

Robin Hessler

Hessler began swimming with his brother, Charley, and sister, Rose, when he was 7. He started swimming with North Hills Swim Club and Cincinnati Marlins. He swam for both teams for nine years. Hessler swam for the Aqua Bombers all four years while at St. Xavier High School. His favorite memory is swimming in

Kurtz started swimming when he was 8 and diving when he was 10. He has great memories of playing capture the flag with former coach David Jolson, swimming with good friends Alex Abel, Otto Warmbier and others and diving for coaches Shauna Tamanko and Bo Bottenhorn. Kurtz’s Swordfish highlights include placing fourth at finals when he was13 and had a cast on his ankle. He also holds the Swordfish team’s15-18 boys diving record, which he broke again this season. In 2010, Kurtz and his siblings, Maddie and Lydia, were awarded the Swordfish’s Scott Oury Memorial Award for dedication to the sport of diving. Kurtz is coaching diving this year at the Cincinnati Country Club. He will attend Wesleyan University in Connecticut in the fall and will play football there.

Otto Warmbier

Warmbier began swimming for the Swordfish Team as an 8 and under after Mike Leonard, head coach of the Powel Crosley Jr. YMCA Tigersharks, encouraged him to be a swimmer. He continued swimming year round as a Tigershark through his middle school years. Warmbier was part of a

Swordfish Freestyle Relay team that set an 11-12 team record that still stands today. In 2009, Warmbier was awarded the Swordfish’s Irene Dundon Memorial Award for dedication to swimming. In addition to his skills and athletic abilities, Warmbier has attributed part of his swimming success to a lucky leopard print towel, which he still uses in swim meets. As a middleschooler, some of Warmbier’s best friends were his swim buddies. Last season, Warmbier volunteered to help coach the 6 and under swimmers on the Swordfish team. He returned this season to coach the same group where his enthusiasm for the team and the sport are a great asset. His family loves to watch and cheer for him. In the water, Warmbier always gives it his all “leaving everything in the water.” Warmbier will attend The University of Virginia this fall. Memories of his time at the Wyoming Swim Club won’t be soon forgotten.

Art Museum director speaks at JCC The JCC is offering a unique two-part program featuring Aaron Betsky, director of the Cincinnati Art Museum, at 7 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 22, at the Mayerson JCC, and a private guided tour of the Cincinnati Wing of the Cincinnati Art Museum and lunch at the museum’s Terrace Cafe’ on Sunday afternoon, Aug. 25. Betsky, also an architecture educator and critic, will discuss “Connecting the Jewels of the Queen City” Aug. 22 at the JCC. He will talk about the “crown jewels” of Cincinnati that set the city apart, and his controversial ideas on using these assets to strengthen Cincinnati’s community. He will give suggestions on how to build on the landscape that already exists to improve the future of the entire city. His thought-provoking perspective references changes to infrastructure, public transportation, and adding life to connective

spaces between institutions, including areas outside of the city center. “Cincinnati’s anchor cultural institutions, its parks and cultural heritage really distinguish this city and tie it together. We need to reuse and rethink what we have in order to build with the land rather than on it, to create a more sustainable way of living,” Betsky said. On Sunday, Aug. 25 at 11:30 a.m., participants will visit the Cincinnati Wing of the Art Museum with a private guided tour. They’ll see the Cincinnati Everyday exhibit featuring two local artists, Cole Carothers and Courttney Cooper with different perspectives on the city landscape using different media. Carothers is a classically trained oil painter who has developed a significant body of work in a landscape tradition. He builds on this tradition by creating views of Cincinnati that extend beyond

simple observation and transform painted gestures into buildings and buildings back into painted gestures. Cooper creates largescale aerial view “maps” of Cincinnati using nothing more than copier paper, ballpoint pens, and a deep knowledge of the city built upon a lifetime of travelling on city buses, walking downtown, and taking car trips with friends. “Connecting the Jewels of the Queen City” is part of the new Eat. Tour. Explore series at the JCC, and is offered in collaboration with the Wolf Center for Arts & Ideas. Eat. Tour. Explore programs are the perfect mix of light learning taught by local experts in arts, culture and current events, a fascinating field trip and a delicious lunch. Advance registration is required because space is limited. Register online at www.MayersonJCC.org.
