Union Township sponsors recycling grant

Annual flag retirement ceremony set New business operation The Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 649 invites Clermont County citizens to the second annual Flag Retirement Ceremony, set for 1 p.m. Sunday, June 10 at the Union Township Civic Center. “Last year we disposed of around 3,000 American flags that were too worn and tattered to be displayed,” said VVA Board member Steve Tam. “The ceremony involves cutting the flags into strips, burning the pieces, and then burying the ashes in an air tight container. It is a very respectful ceremony.” Tam said he is saddened when he sees a tattered American flag flying at a home or business. “This is a symbol of our nation and should be respected,” he said. Federal law stipulates many aspects of flag etiquette, including the requirement that when a flag is so worn it is no longer fit to serve as a symbol of our country, it should be destroyed by burning in a dignified manner. While all of the collected flags will not be burned at the ceremony on June 10, Tam said all will be handled with proper dignity and respect. There are a number of collection sites that have been set-up across Clermont County to accept worn flags from homes, schools, and businesses. The collection sites are listed at www.vva649.org.

Union Township Trustees are a sponsor for Evans Landscaping on a grant application that would provide funding for a recycling center on their existing US Highway 50 property. Administrator Ken Geis

discussed the idea with trustees at their Feb. 9 meeting, and they decided the new operation would be an extension of services and also provide additional jobs in the township. “I think this is another good opportunity to expand our commercial and industrial area in the northern

area of the township,” Administrator Ken Geis said. According to Tony Muto, general council for Evans Landscaping, the grant is through the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, and can provide up to $250,000 to a company for use toward recycling equipment. Muto said the money received must be used on recycling-specific equipment, such as sorting stations, screeners or equipment that

moves recycling materials. “It is a business expansion,” Muto said about opening a recycling operation. “It fits in pretty well with some of the things we do. We are able to generate material that would be recyclable.” Muto said much of the material the company would recycle would be from their own collection or production from the demolition, excavating and site clearing work they com-

plete regularly. He said the company would have to hire up to 10 additional employees for the recycling area if they receive the grant. After receiving sponsorship from Union Township, the company was able to apply for the grant and Muto said they will know by May or June whether or not they have received grant money. The money will be See Grant, Page A3

Batavia students earn second place in Future City competition More than 40 schools from across the state competed BY KRISTIN BEDNARSKI Sun staff

A group of eighth-grade Batavia Middle School students earned second place in the state this year in the Future City Competition by imagining and creating a model city that demonstrates advanced concepts and technology. Students were recognized

for their accomplishment at the Feb. 13 Batavia Local School District Board of Education meeting after they presented their project to board members and guests. “As a science teacher I am so blown away by all the science knowledge you all had in there,” Superintendent Jill Grubb said about the presentation.

The project involved the creation of a detailed model, along with a presentation that explained the futuristic city and how it operates. “They just did an excellent job,” Mary Bradburn, gifted teacher and project supervisor, said. “It is an awesome project.” Students combined their knowledge and skills to create the project, and they were also able to work with Bradburn and their engineer mentor, Laura Michalske, a

Proctor & Gamble Company employee. They used SimCity software to plan the cities and then built a table-top model with recycled materials. Students worked to create a speech about their futuristic city and presented their model and ideas to judges in the regional competition, which took place Jan. 21 in Columbus. The city the students created was called Patilla, and See Batavia, Page A3

Conflict continues between residents and the Clermont County Engineer's Office this month over the restoration of the historic covered bridge located on StonelickWilliams Corner road. “There is a good chance it is not going to happen anytime soon,” Todd Gadbury, bridge engineer for the Clermont County Engineer's Office, said about the project. The bridge, which is the only covered bridge remaining in Clermont County, has been closed since 2010 after a truck exceeded the three ton weight limit for the bridge and caused significant damage to the base. Engineers knew the bridge would need extensive repairs and began planning for a complete restoration of the nearly 134-year-old structure. Gadbury said a plan was designed to repair structures

damaged, increase the weight limit of the bridge to 12 tons, add additional arches to support the structure and narrow the bridge to prevent large vehicles from being able to cross. “It's about the safety of the traveling public and it is also a priority to preserve the existing truss,” Gadbury said. Much of the problem residents, including Tim and Catherine Rush-Ossenbeck, have with the plan involves preserving the historic structures within the bridge including the Howe truss. “What we're interested in is a true historic restoration of the bridge,” Catherine Rush-Ossenbeck said. “Not taking it a part and replacing the siding and floor.” The Rush-Ossenbecks, who live next to the bridge, said they want to repair the bridge but allow the historical structures to remain just as they were. In addition, they voiced their concerns about the safety of the engineers plan because they feel the increase weight limit

will allow larger vehicles to use the bridge and the road. “Fire trucks and school buses have not been able to go over and it has been fine,” Rush-Ossenbeck said. “The reason we moved to Stonelick Township was because it was a peaceful country road.” The Rush-Ossenbecks,

and other residents who live on or near the road, have been working hard to prevent the engineers from carrying out their current plan by attending many township and village meetings throughout the county as well as commissioners' sessions and engineer meetings.

Their efforts have paid off as commissioners have spoken with the engineers about a compromise. “The county commissioners have decided not to bid the project out until there is some resolution,” Gadbury said. “At this point See Bridge, Page A3

Bethel Village Council members received an update on the Asian longhorned beetle eradication program from representatives of the United States Department of Agriculture Thursday, Feb. 9. Jose Granada, USDA project manager for the eradication program, told council members that work crews are on track to complete phase one of the eradication program by the end of February. “We would like to have them (the infested trees) removed by the end of February so we can concentrate on the area outside of phase I,” Granada said. Phase one of the program involved the removal of infested trees within a defined area with the highest concentration of beetles. Approximately 5,000

infested trees were identified in that area to the west of the village, and about 3,000 of those trees have been removed. Phase two, according to Granada, will be defined by individual properties found to have trees infested with the beetles. Many of those properties are within the village of Bethel. “Whatever area we find infested, we will call that phase two,” Granada said. “In the village of Bethel we have found 178 infested trees, just in the sections we have surveyed, not in the complete village yet.” Part of the eradication program involves the removal of non-infested host trees from areas where the beetles have been found. Councilman Jeremiah Hembree asked Granada about that part of the program.

“Phases one and two are dealing with infested trees,” Hembree said. “What’s the plan from there? Granada said that the removal of non-infested host trees is being studied with the environmental assessment being conducted by the USDA. He said the assessment is expected to be complete in mid-March, and the public will have 30 days to comment on the assessment at that time. “We are going to make sure every resident in the affected area, and in surrounding areas, is notified when the assessment is completed,” Granada said. “We want the public to comment on the assessment, we’re not trying to hide anything.” Residents can contact the USDA with questions about the quarantine or concerns about the contractor removing the trees

the futuristic model incorporated a variety of selfsustaining technology such as solar and thermal energy. The students expanded on the concepts by explaining how the technology used in the city was designed to benefit both residents and guests and also explained that excess energy produced in the city is sold to fund local attractions. “I love working with the kids,” Michalske said about being the engineer manager for the team. “You had some real contributors, and they all put in their time. It is truly a team effort.” Students agreed that effort took both teamwork and patience and said they really had to work together and compromise to develop their final project. “The hardest thing with teamwork was collaborating writing styles,” Taylor Albright said.

Becker said he wanted to run for 65th District State Representative to continue to support the values of Clermont County. “Since I’ve lived here most of my life, I have a pretty good feel for the conservative values of Clermont County,” Becker said. “My conservative values fit hand-in-hand with my constituents.” Becker said in the position he holds as committeeman, he has already worked to represent these values, but is looking to take the next step. He said said the main issues that need to be addressed in the district are jobs and the economy. “It’s a matter of encouraging businesses to come here to Clermont County, or the state of Ohio, and also encouraging businesses to stay here or expand,” Becker said. Becker said that what prevents them from doing this are taxes and regulations. He said he would like to reduce and eliminate different tax brackets

of the final steps in the project and everyone contributed. Alex Young said presenting the project and speaking in front of all of the judges was nervewracking, however, once they moved forward in the competition, she said they felt more confident. “As it went on we became more comfortable

and it flowed better,” Young said. In the end, all of the hard work paid off, and the students placed second out of 44 teams competing in the state. They also received the award for best essay. “It was heartbreaking at first,” Blake Hale said about not winning the competition. But Hale couldn't argue

to eventually get down to one flat tax, or no tax. “I am targeting income tax,” Becker said. “I think eliminating income tax will go a long way to prompt business owners to want to move here or expand here, therefore creating jobs.” In addition, Becker said he would like to eliminate unfunded mandates to allow local governments and schools to do more with their resources. He said he would also like to see Ohio Workers Compensation become more competitive to give businesses more flexibility. “I am not the type of guy looking to bring home the bacon from Columbus,” Becker said about his goals. “I am a friend of the tax payers.” Mike Brem, who has lived in Union Township for five years, said he is running for office because he was asked to by a group of residents. “I think that the importance of that cannot be understated,” Brem said. “I am not a politician, I am not from the old establishment.” Brem, who utilizes Facebook to share his political beliefs and receive feedback, said he never

dreamed he would be running for office, but after being challenged to do more than just talk with family and friends about the issues in the district, he decided to run. Brem currently works at Kings Toyota as the service coordinator and said he also has experience as a truck driver, working in the printing industry and working for the National Federation of Independent Business. Brem said the economy and jobs are two of the most important issues or challenges that the district faces now and in the near future. He said reducing the size and scope of government intrusion in every aspect of the economy is the most important way to tackle these issues. Brem said he has a great understanding of the issues that affect residents in the district. He said he has conservative values and principles with little faith or trust in the government. Brem continuously discusses political issues and his opinions on his Facebook page and also uses the page to inform residents and friends about his community involvement and family activities.

that second place was an achievement. “It was bitter sweet,” Albright said. “You want to get first, but it is a huge accomplishment.” Teams that earned first place in each region will compete at the national finals for the Future City Competition Feb. 17 in Washington D.C.

it is all on hold. Right now we are looking at a possible re-design with two different options and some compromise between what the public wants and what we are looking at also.” And while Gadbury said they will work with residents to create a different plan for the bridge, he is concerned about the time and money it will take the complete another plan. “If we go with another design we have to start over on the environmental process,” Gadbury said. “The funding is there, but there are chances if we don't get it under construction we could lose part of that funding.” In addition, Gadbury said, developing a new plan will push repairs and construction back even further. He said some residents have called because they are concerned about how long the road will remain closed. “We are working extremely hard to try to satisfy everyone,” Gadbury said.

of last year’s vote and because of the president’s promise three years ago to cut the deficit in half in his first term, this year’s budget would have real deficit savings. Far from cutting Fiscal Year 2009’s $1.4 trillion deficit in half, this budget assumes a 2012 deficit of $1.3 trillion. The president’s budget claims to have about $5 trillion in deficit reduction over the next decade, as compared to what he says would happen under current policy. But if you read the fine print, only 0.1 percent of that claimed deficit reduction consists of net new spending cuts. The rest, comprising 99.9 percent (yes, you read that right), is made up of tax increases, spending cuts already enacted last year, and a gimmick that assumes the See Portman, Page A7

Budget malpractice in Washington, DC We’ve all heard about medical malpractice and legal malpractice. Now there’s another one to add to the roster: budget malpractice. Every year the president is required to submit a budget to the Congress. Typically it is a 10-year proposal of spending and taxes, based on certain economic assumptions. The budget President Obama submitted last year was voted down in the Senate by an overwhelming bipartisan margin of 97-0. And yet on Monday, President Obama released a very similar budget. Like last year’s budget that got no support, it spends too much, taxes too much and borrows too much. At a time of trillion-dollar deficits, historic debt and the highest level of government spending since World War II, it’s simply irresponsible to propose a budget that allows $11 trillion to be added to the debt in the 10-year budget window and does nothing to address our long-term budget crisis.

Pray for the family hurt by scandal Mad, sad, depressed, disgusted – if those describe your reaction to the disclosure of the alleged crimes committed by former commissioner Archie Wilson, well join the club. Mad at how someone abused the trust placed in him. Sad for the tragedy forced upon his family. Depressed, well that goes along with the first two. I am personally disgusted with both the details of the crime and with some who approach this tragedy with gleefulness in order to exploit it for their own political gain. Former commissioner Wilson was endorsed for election over incumbent Scott Croswell in 2010 based upon the issue of economic development and the proper role of county government. In 2006, Croswell voted to expend approximately $8.2 million of general fund money, over 15 percent of county normal operating funds and over 37 percent of the beginning fund balance to intervene in the private market for economic devel-

Home remedies weren’t pretty but they worked I’ll never forget my first encounter with an enema bag. I was about 8 years old and had one heck of a belly ache from something I’d eaten. I’d heard stories from my older brothers and sister about intimate relationships they’d had with that little black nozzle at the end of the hose on the enema bag, so you’d think I would have known better than to complain, but once the words were out it was too late. Mom retrieved the enema bag from its hook in the closet, filled it with lukewarm water, and greased that little black nozzle (which suddenly looked huge to me) with a big gob of Crisco. My brothers and sister weren’t allowed to watch but I could hear them giggling in the other room as Mom told me to assume the position. Well, you know what came next. As a little bit of that warm water trickled down my backside waiting for the enema to work, I swore I would never complain about a bellyache again. I’m glad Mom didn’t use a gob of her favorite medi-

We swallowed it, snuffed it, and rubbed it – from the top of our foreheads to the soles of our feet, the specific area of application depending on the nature of our ailment – sunburn, back ache, ingrown

toenail, you name it and Mom used Vicks to cure it. But the strangest home remedy Mom ever used on me bordered on witchcraft. From the time I was a little kid I had warts on my hands, lots of them on both hands. Mom called them seed warts, except for the big fat one on my left thumb, which she called the mother wart. My mother wart was as big as a dime and Mom said if she removed it the seed warts would all go away. I was all the time catching my mother wart on something while playing, so one day, not long after the enema episode, Mom said it was time to remove my mother wart. She got some cob webs off the ceiling, wadded them into a tight little ball, soaked the little ball of cobwebs in lighter fluid, and then pressed it firmly on my mother wart. I wasn’t resisting, but Mom told my stepdad to hold my right arm firmly behind my back while she got a good grip on my left arm and hand. Then she used a lighter to

Eliminating conflicts of interest in Congress Sometimes, it’s no wonder that Americans have lost faith in Congress. Last year, a groundbreaking report by 60 Minutes found that some Members of Congress may be using insider information—acquired through their official duties—to enrich their stock holdings. Members of Congress should not have a different set of rules—they should be treated the same as everyone else. Public servants should not obtain financial benefits as a result of the votes they cast or the issues they work on. Last week, the Senate passed the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act, which clarifies that insider-trading laws apply to Members of Congress as they do to people in the rest of the country. The STOCK Act is a common sense, bipartisan measure that prohibits insider trading by Members

Jadon Cohen Maineville

SHERROD BROWN UNITED STATES SENATOR of Congress and their staff. It also improves transparency by strengthening disclosure laws so that Members of Congress must report within 30 days when they buy or sell stocks or bonds. I encourage the House of Representatives to pass the STOCK Act and send it to President Obama so he can sign it into law. But the STOCK Act represents only the first in a series of actions that we can take to clean up Washington. The STOCK Act really only deals with insider trading—and that’s only a small part of Washington’s problem. I want to see us go fur-

ther. Why should senators vote on issues that affect the oil industry while owning oil company stock—or vote on issues that affect prescription drugs when they own stock in pharmaceutical companies? The concept is simple: senators should not be voting on issues that affect their financial investments. Right now, committees like the Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC) require that staff members, their spouses, and dependents divest themselves of any stock in companies doing business with the Department of Defense and the Department of Energy. Federal regulations and federal criminal law also prohibit Executive Branch employees, their spouses, and children from owning stock in companies that they regulate. However, that prohibition is not extended to

40 Years Ago

Zachary Isaac and Lauren Gerber

Both Lauren and Zachary are members of the United States Army. Zachary is a member of the 3rd Calvary Recon unit stationed at Fort

Hood Texas. Lauren will be stationed at Ft. Leonard Wood in Missouri for basic training. Mayor Todd Hart officiated the union between the two soldiers while Andrew Gerber, brother of the bride and solider in the United States Army, watched via Skype from where he is stationed in Vilseck Germany.

February 24, 1972 Vocational school contract signed Contracts have been signed for all three of the new schools or the Hamilton County Joint Vocational School District, including the eastern campus on Buckwheat Road in Miami Township. The eastern campus construction cost has been set at just above $4 million. The school will be located on a 116-acre site on Buckwheat Road near Ohio 28 and close to the Circle Freeway interchange with that route. It will serve nine school districts, Milford, Loveland, Indian Hill, Goshen, Batavia, Clermont Northeastern, Madeira, Mariemont and Forest Hills. The western campus--on Harrison Avenue at Dent in Hamilton County--also will cost over $4 million. The central campus -- at the old Sharonville Army depot site -- will cost approximately $7 million. It will serve 2452 students while the eastern and western campuses will accommodate 1527 students each. The name of Great Oaks Career Development District has been proposed for the district, because it now involves 12 counties.

Taxpayer balks at lack of police

Rotary presents books to CNE Elementary Batavia Rotary President David Phaneuf, District Governor Elect Peter Weiglin, and Rotarian Brian Switzer recently presented dictionaries and thesauruses at CNE Elementary School. CNE Principal Glenda Green assisted the Rotary members in distributing thesauruses to all fifth graders and dictionaries to all third graders. These educational tools were also given to all third and fifth graders in the Batavia School District and were purchased by the Batavia Rotary Club through a matching grant with Rotary District 6670.

A Goshen Township resident who is a member of the Clermont County Planning Commission has refused to pay part of his real estate taxes in protest over township trustees’ failure to provide police service. Gene Vanlandingham, chairman of the township planning commission and vice president of the Goshen School Board, said he knows he is going to have to pay a penalty for refusing to pay part of his taxes but he is willing to do so. Vanlandingham would not pay the 1-1/2 mills which was approved by voters in November for police protection. It has been placed on this year’s tax bills. Trustees, however, have refused to start police protection until County Auditor Arnold Stumpf distributes the tax now being collected. They could borrow in anticipation of the tax distribution, Chairman Albert “Bud” Hines

said, but “that would be deficit spending and we are not going to spend money we do not have.”

25 Years Ago February 26, 1987 Deadline passes to file for election Clermont County’s May ballot took shape Thursday with the closing of deadline for issues and levies to be filed with the Board of Elections. Voters will be asked May 5 to cast their mark for one zoning issue and two tax levies. In Washington Township, residents will be faced with voting upon an issue which would set zoning standards with the unincorporated areas of the township. North Batavia Township Fire District is asking for an additional tax levy of 1.4-mills. The continuing issue would be for fire and ambulance protection. Pierce Township has slated the second tax levy in the county, asking voters there to decide upon the renewal of a 1.3-mill levy. The five-year renewal would be used for waste disposal.

Story Lady retires after 30 years at library Many remember Judy Walker as the lady who told them stories once a week at the Clermont County Library during story hour. Judy, retiring this week after 30 years with the Batavia branch of the library, began her career working on the bookmobile. “I began as a clerk on the bookmobile, and went to different schools so children could check out the books they wanted,” Judy remembers. This is what acquainted her with books and what the children like to read. “Once I started working inside, my first responsibility was to collect the overdue fines for the bookmobile, which I was obviously familiar with,” she said. In 1967, Batavia schools began bringing classes to the library for tours and it became Judy’s job to work with the classes. “ This began her career of working with children.” That same summer, the library began holding story hour on Thursdays. The story hour was called “The Raggedy Ann Story

Hour,” and was for children ages three years up to kindergarten. The leader of the story hour was Judy Walker.

15 Years Ago February 27, 1997 Booster support ends, CNE sports continue Sports in the Clermont Northeastern school district will continue in 1997-98, even though the athletic boosters will no longer support the athletic program. “We did hire a football coach for next year, so we’re beginning to staff fall sports,” Superintendent Charles Shreve said. “There is a commitment on part of the board to make sure we have sports next year.” The CNE Athletic Boosters have been raising money to pay for the district’s sports program since financial support extracurricular activities were eliminated from the budget in 1993. The boosters have been able to keep many sports going, but only by requiring each athlete to pay $175 for each sport and by organizing a number of fund-raisers, said boosters Treasurer Kim Leggett. The boosters told the board in January they would no longer pay for athletics or administer the athletic fees.

Nursing home adopts no smoking policy

B R O A D S H E E T O D D

A new smoking policy at a Batavia Township nursing home is causing dissension among patients and their family members. Michelle Daniels, administrator of Batavia Nursing and Convalescent Inn on Golden Age Drive, said the center announced in November that a smoke-free atmosphere would be initiated in February. “As of February 1, employees were not permitted to smoke in the building,” Daniels said. “As of February 17, patients were limited to four designated smoking times per day inside, and anytime outdoors.” The change overrides the nursing center’s previous policy, which allowed smoking each hour, 24 hours per day. The policy is part of an effort to comply with regulations of the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations.

Q: How will I know which form to use? A: If you use IRS efile, the system will automatically decide which form you need. If you do

not use e-file, you will be choosing between three forms: 1040EZ, 1040A and 1040. Generally, you should choose Form 1040EZ if: • your taxable income below $100,000 does not include any self-employment income; • your filing status is Single or Married Filing Jointly; • you and your spouseóif marriedóare under age 65 and not blind; • you are not claiming any dependents or tax credits other than the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC); • your taxable interest in-

If you cannot use Form

1040EZ or Form 1040A, you likely will need to use Form 1040. Use Form 1040 if: • your taxable income is $100,000 or more and/or you are reporting self-employment income; • you claim itemized deductions; • you claim any tax credit that is not among the following: earned income, child/dependent care expense, elderly/disabled, education, savers or child/additional child tax credit; • you are reporting income from sale of property.

Continued from page 4 long-planned Iraq and Afghanistan troop drawdown won’t happen and then takes credit for a new spending cut when it does. On top of that, elsewhere in the budget the president hides hundreds of billions of dollars in additional new spending. So even the claimed savings – the 0.1 percent – also vanish. Overrun under a mountain of deficits and debt. In fact, under his proposal, the national debt is set to rise from about $15 trillion today to nearly $26 trillion in the 10 years of the budget plan. What does this spending and added debt mean for the average Ohio family? In 2012, the president intends to have the federal government spend $31,000 per household. From the time the president took office until 2022, the federal budget will have grown by $9,000 per household. Most Ohioans I know don’t think they’re getting services to match this soaring spending. Of course, if spending rises $9,000 per household, higher taxes will have to follow. And sure enough they do in the president’s budget. Economists at the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office

believe these tax increases will result in lower economic growth and more job losses. They will also subject 48 percent of small business income to higher taxes, according to IRS data. One interesting part of the president’s budget is its assessment that the policies in the budget will result in unemployment rates of 8.9 percent in 2012 and 8.6 percent in 2013, both numbers higher than today’s unemployment. This is unacceptable at a time when 21 million Americans are already unemployed or underemployed. Ultimately it’s about our kids and grandkids. It seems like Washington is prepared to have them pay off the leftover bills from a continued spending spree. As noted earlier, spending per household rises sharply under the president’s budget proposal. So does debt. The bills are startling. President Obama inherited a national debt of $91,000 per household. His new budget proposes pushing it to $161,000 a decade from now. This debt will not only be a liability for our kids and grandkids, but economists also tell us that it will limit economic growth and kill millions of jobs now

and in the future. The job of the Congress should be to produce our own budget and actually deal with the short and long-term problems. In the United States Senate, such a budget is way overdue. Despite a 1974 law requiring a budget, the Democratic majority in the Senate has not produced a budget to be voted on for more than 1,000 days. With no budget it is no wonder the spending has grown so much. I will keep fighting for a responsible budget, and for the combination of good, pro-growth policies and

commonsense spending restraint to get Ohio and the country back on track. Rob Portman is a United States Senator from Ohio.

BY MARCY WILSON Have you heard of farro? It’s an ancient type of wheat that has a high protein and fiber content and a nutty, chewy texture, similar to barley. It’s a delicious alternative to regular pasta. Here’s a farro salad I learned to make and which my family likes.

Letters: Vote White Continued from page 4 Paul is a fiscal conservative, recognizing that there is a finite amount of money available, and that for every dollar invested in a social program a dollar must be withheld from another. He intends to spend taxpayer money frugally; getting, so to speak, “More bang for the buck!” Paul Hall’s very successful business career certainly attests to his commitment and his ability to do just that. Paul has never worked in public office. However, his lifelong dream has been to serve in the legislature. His lifestyle has prepared him for that agenda. Now, at age 54, with his family and staff prepared to run his business, he is positioned to achieve that goal; service to Ohio’s people in the public venue of the Senate. The 14th Senate District encompasses Adams, Brown, Clermont, and Scioto counties, as well as a part of Lawrence County; with a total population of about 380,000 people. You will come to see that Paul Hall is the man we need to represent us in the Senate. Remember, Paul Hall for Senate on Tuesday, March 6. Jeanne Glassmeyer Fayetteville

Vote Faris for prosecutor Dear Editor: I am writing to express support for Vince Faris who is running for Prosecuting Attorney of Clermont County. I have been a practicing lawyer in Clermont County for over 31 years. I have been involved in many cases with Mr. Faris over the years, always as the opposing lawyer, in criminal cases when he was an assistant prosecuting attorney and in civil cases when he was the lawyer on the other side of the case. Although we disputed many issues, our disagreements were never personal. Mr. Faris was aggressive about his cases without being offensive. Throughout, he demonstrated honesty and hard work. Even more, he viewed the law as something to be applied fairly and equally to everyone. He would do the same as the Prosecuting Attorney. He would have no interest in using his office to reward his friends and punish his enemies. His interest would be the protection and welfare of the citizens of Clermont County. Michael A.

Continued from page 4 set fire to the wad of cobwebs on my mother wart. It burned like fire, which of course it was, for a long minute. When the fire finally went out Mom and Dad released my arms. I opened my eyes and wiped away a few tears to have a look at my mother wart. It was all charred and super sore. But Mom wasn’t done yet. She took some thread, wrapped it around the base of the wart several times and tied it as tightly as she could. She placed a BandAid over the wart and told

me not to touch it. A few days later Mom snipped the thread loose and wiggled the wart with her fingers. It was starting to loosen but wasn’t ready to come off yet so she tied another thread around it and applied a new BandAid. This ritual continued for a couple of weeks, with the thread slowly but surely cutting its way under the base of the wart until one day when Mom examined the wart it was sitting up like a little mushroom on a stem. Mom declared that it was time to remove my mother

Rudd times could lose his temper. Hardly the current alleged crimes of trafficking and soliciting. Before the endorsement I spoke with people who worked with Wilson at Batavia Township, business leaders, and other acquaintances. I received overwhelmingly positive reviews. I am sure that all were subsequently shocked by the current events. The only way to have known about former commissioner Wilsons perverted proclivities would have been to have followed him 24 hours a day. To suggest that the Republican Party, its leadership, and the voters of Clermont County would put someone in office openly knowing that he participated in the activities alleged to have been committed by Wilson is sheer lunacy. I ask you who would risk their own good name and reputation over what gain? As much as the alleged crimes of former commissioner Wilson disgust and sicken me so does the fact that some are trying to exploit this tragedy for their own political reasons. Some have even tried to question the timing of a properly handled investigation in order to sow confusion. Why try to sow all the confusion and mistrust. Easy, we are in primary season and the timing of this tragedy could not have been better for anyone to exploit in order to raise doubts about the party and their endorsed candidates. We endorse based on issues. When you can’t argue the issues you use personal attacks, distortions, half truths and lies. Sounds like the tactics of a former commissioner and prominent criminal defense attorney currently attempting to distort the primary debate. Pray for the family.

The East Fork Watershed Collaborative, in collaboration with the Miami University Institute for the Environment and Sustainability, is holding a focus group meeting on February 24 to discuss sustainable agriculture practices, and how these practices can best serve producers in Clermont County. The focus group meeting will be held at 9 a.m. at the Clermont County Park District’s Hartman Log Cabin, located at 5272 Aber Road in Jackson Township. If you are interested in participating in the focus group email Anne Speakman at speakmak@muohio.edu. “Receiving input directly from producers will help us understand what works best for the producers in Clermont,” said Jacob Stone, a Miami graduate student in the IES program. “While we have many producers that use sustainable farming practices, we want to better understand how to help other producers embrace these methods, without adversely impacting their businesses,” said John McManus, a member of the East Fork Collaborative. “This knowledge will help the East Fork Watershed Collaborate design outreach projects that make sense for both the environment and the producer.” The East Fork Watershed Collaborative was formed in 2001 as a way to bring together the diverse interests within the East Fork Watershed to protect and enhance the biological, chemical, and physical integrity of the East Fork of the Little Miami River and its tributaries.

care from Clermont Senior Services, which allows Elaine time to go to the grocery and her own medical appointments. She tells everybody that all the gals are nice, but she especially likes Bonnie, and feels like she is part of the family. Of course, they use CSS transportation as well, since Joe must be transported in his wheelchair to medical appointments. Elaine always assists him, because he cannot be left alone. They also receive help from family, caring friends and neighbors. Church friends come every two weeks and bring Communion. A neigh-

bor, a retired policeman, takes out trash, changes light bulbs, and helps out in other ways. When Elaine had knee replacement surgery a few years ago, a volunteer, Beth Rawdon, did her grocery shopping. Beth is now the Manager of Scheduling and Nutrition Services for CSS. Elaine says Beth has a great crew. She and Beth continue to stay in touch and have been good friends for over five years. Beth continues to visit Elaine and Joe with her husband and three year old son. Whenever Elaine is ill or recovering from surgery, Joe must live in a nursing home until she is able to

care for him. She always tries to get him back home as quickly as possible. When Joe is gone, Elaine says she really misses his company. Clermont Senior Services is available to help fill in the gaps in help that families cannot provide. Often, however, families live far away and cannot provide hands-on support for their loved one. For many elderly people CSS is the sole support and critical lifeline that keeps them in their own home. The agency offers many services on a donation basis. If you or someone you know needs help, call Clermont Senior Services at 724-1255.

Adult Day Care is available to help family caregivers

Welcome Center is the name of the Adult Day Service program of Clermont Senior Services. Caring, friendly staff are ready to greet each person and encourage them to enjoy their day. Comfortable furnishings, colorful murals, handcrafted wall hangings, and an outdoor patio/garden area provide a homelike atmosphere. The Welcome Center hosted an open house on January 26. Families and guests toured the facility, joined center participants

in a project of their choice, and watched videos of seniors participate on a daily basis. Sewing projects, artwork, and crafts created during the last year were on display. Pam Scott RN, facilitator of the Caregiver Support Group, was present with information and helpful personal care items. Over 150 seniors, family members, and guests attended the event. The Welcome Center is an adult day service program for people with physical or mental impairments who need socialization in a

supervised setting and is the only program of its kind in Clermont County. For more information, call CSS

at 724-1255. Financial assistance is available for eligible participants.

Welcome Center (Adult Day Center) participants and their families enjoy making new craft items, as well as viewing the center’s art and craft show.

Continued from page 4 Members of Congress—the same ones who make laws that affect publicly-traded companies. That’s not right. That’s why I authored and introduced the Putting the People’s Interests First Act, which would require that Members of Congress divest themselves from their stock holdings. It would extend to Senators the conflict of interest rules that currently apply to committee staff and executive branch officials. Members of the Senate should hold themselves to the same

standard that they require of others. Under my legislation, Members of the Senate and their staff would be prohibited from owning individual stock in companies affected by their official duties. The only investments Senators would be able to have are ones managed by others— in blind trusts or broad-based mutual funds. Members would still be permitted to keep ownership interests in their family farm or small business. While this bill won’t win me any popularity contests

with my colleagues, I believe that it’s the right thing to do. The trust that the American people have in Congress is at an all-time low. Members of the House and the Senate must demonstrate to the public that their focus is on rebuilding the economy, not their stock portfolios. Support for this concept runs across party lines. When asked about the requirement to divest, President George W. Bush’s Deputy Secretary of Defense, Gordon England said: “I think Congress

should live by the rules they impose on other people.” Former Defense Secretary William J. Perry, who served under President Bill Clinton, said that divesting his holdings prior to becoming Secretary of Defense: “was very painful, but I do not disagree with the importance of doing this. The potential for corruption is very high. It keeps our government clean.” Earlier this month, President Obama said in his State of the Union address: “Let’s limit any elected official from owning stocks in industries they impact.” I agree—and that’s why I wrote the Putting the People’s Interests First Act. Public service is a privilege— there’s no reason that Members of Congress need to buy and sell stocks in multi-million dollar portfolios. I’ve called on my fellow Senators to join me in implementing these common-sense ethical regulations. This is one small step that Congress can take to restore the American people’s trust in their elected officials. Sherrod Brown is a United States Senator from Ohio.

Williamsburg’s Kendal Young scored his 1,000th career point on Friday, Feb. 17 versus Blanchester.

Burg’s Kendal Young scores 1,000th point BY CHRIS CHANEY Sun staff

For Kendal Young, scoring 1,000 points was all in the family. The Williamsburg junior was able to join his father, Troy, and his brother, Elliot, in the elite 1,000-point club on Friday, Feb. 17 during a 73-50 loss to Blanchester that marked the end the Wildcats’ regular season. “It means a lot to me,” Kendal said of scoring 1,000 points. “I’ve been working towards it since I was a little kid.” Needing 20 points to reach the prestigious milestone, Kendal went about his business as usual, being the focal point of the Wildcats’ offense. Scoring 17 points in the first half, he knew where he stood as the Wildcats came out of the locker room. “They told me going into the beginning of the third

quarter (what I needed to get to 1,000),” Kendal said. “It was a three. I just came down the floor and shot it. “I got to keep the ball. They’re having it painted now, but when it happened they called a timeout and handed me the ball, stopped the game for a minute and told me congratulations.” He would go on to score 25 points in the game. As if scoring 1,000 points in a high school career isn’t enough, Kendal did it in just three seasons. Now a junior in his third year on varsity, Kendal has been an integral part of the Williamsburg basketball team since he was a freshman. “It’s a big deal,” Kendal said. “I don’t know what to say, really. I don’t go out and think about scoring a lot, I just try to play my best.” The Young family is full of scorers. Kendal’s father, Troy, scored over 1,000

points during his high school career at Clermont Northeastern in the mid1980s and just last year, Elliot Young, Kendal’s older brother, scored his 1,000 point in a game against Blanchester. “It’s a good feeling to join them,” Kendal said. “I knew that my brother had it and my dad did, too. So, I wanted to be up there with them and to do that is a good feeling.” Kendal joins an exclusive group at Williamsburg High School that not only includes his brother, but also former Wildcat standouts Trevor Foster and Clayton Connor. With the 1,000-point burden off of his shoulders, Kendal is beginning to look forward to the postseason. The Wildcats head into a sectional tournament game with No. 3-seed Roger Bacon on Friday, Feb. 24. “Roger Bacon is a good

team, they always are,” Young said. “They play hard defense and really get after you, but I know we’ll go out and try to play our best.” Tough defense is something Kendal has to face every time he takes the court. Teams around the area are well aware of his ability to score and as a result, dedicate entire game plans to stopping him from doing so. Being face-guarded and double-teamed is all in a night’s work for Young, but he is still able to put up some impressive numbers. The junior is averaging 22 points per game and just over eight rebounds. Young will need to keep us his stellar play on Friday to take down the Spartans as Young’s Wildcats will travel to Western Brown for their first-round matchup. The game is slated for 6:30 p.m.

The Glen Este girls’ bowling team will bear the hopes of Clermont County on their shoulders when they head to Eastern Lanes in Middletown on Saturday, Feb. 25 for the district tournament. The Lady Trojans were the only team in the area to make it out of the sectional qualifying. “My hopes were up, but I wanted to be realistic,” Glen Este coach Kathy Demarko said. “I figured the boys would move on and was shocked when they didn’t, so I didn’t want to get my hopes up too high for Friday.” The Glen Este boys, competing out of Crossgate Lanes, were the first team to miss out on the district tournament as a team, coming up 20 pins behind fifthplace Wilmington. To add insult to injury, Glen Este was unable to get any boys to qualify as individuals. With only five individuals from non-qualifying teams advancing to districts, Glen Este’s Blake Huber finished sixth, just 15 pins out of fifth place. The sectional tournament took place over two days with the boys competing on Wednesday, Feb. 15 and the girls bowling on Friday,

Feb. 17. Along with Glen Este’s teams, Milford and Goshen also were present in the sectional tournament. The Warriors bowled both teams out of Crossgate Lanes, as did Glen Este, but Milford was split between Colerain Bowl for the boys and Crossgate for the girls. The Milford boys finished 11th in the sectional with Kyle Chance as the highest finishing individual, 16 pins out of the last qualifying spot. “Overall, being a young team with only one senior, we did as well as we could have expected,” Milford coach Frank Ritzmann said of his boys’ team. “We bowled well in the Baker games, but came up a little short of our average in the single games.” The Milford girls finished in ninth place as a team and Delaney Ward was their highest finishing individual, 49 pins out of the last individual qualifying position. Goshen coach Shirley Reynolds believed that the magnitude of the moment may have gotten to her team during the tournament as her boys finished 15th as a team. “Most of my group is coming back next year, so I

Heading up to Miami University for the district meet, Milford head swimming coach Sarah Kleinfelter thought her team had an advantage over some of the other schools competing because the Eagles had swum at MU for the Fort Ancient Valley Conference meet. The Eagles were able to prove their coach right, advancing in six events to the state meet at C.T. Branin Natatorium in Canton on Saturday, Feb. 25. Milford will be represented by five individuals in Canton, competing in those six events. Alex Frank, Dave Matulis, Beau Robinson and Cade Williams make up the 200-yard medely relay team that finished fourth at their district, breaking a school record along the way with a time of 1:36.43, more than two seconds faster than the previous record.

“(The 200 medley) had their best time of the season,” Kleinfelter said. “The record they broke was actually set by them last season.” Robinson was also able to put up his best time of the season, 51.67 seconds, in the 100-yard butterfly to finish sixth in his district and 14th in the state, garnering him an opportunity to swim in the state meet. The 200-yard freestyle relay was able to sneak into the state meet, coming in at No. 22 in the state with a time of 1:28.35. There are 24 qualifiers for each event made up of two automatic qualifiers from each district (of which there are four) and then the next 16 “atlarge” spots are decided by time. Frank and Matulis were able to grab a spot in individual events as well. Frank swam a 53.65 in the 100See Swim, Page B12

The New Richmond Lady Lions were able to overcome a slow start offensively by creating turnovers and transition baskets en route to a 22point first-round win over Ross, 42-20, in the sectional tournament on Thursday, Feb. 16. “Our defense always creates our offense,” New Richmond coach Brad Hatfield said. “We were getting stops and Josie (Buckingham) was getting blocked shots, so we were getting rebounds and translating that into pretty quick points, which if we can get Bailey (Workman) out in the open floor, she typically scores.” Those transition baskets didn’t come easily early on for the Lady Lions. Ross started out in an inactive, packed-in two-three zone that dedicated two and three defenders to New Richmond’s 6-foot-5 sophomore center Josie Buckingham. In an effort to minimize Buckingham’s impact, Ross forced New Richmond to settle for outside jump shots, which weren’t falling early. Hatfield was able to make

some adjustments midway through the first quarter that really allowed the Lady Lions to create some offense. “Our offense kind of evolved,” he said. “When they were running zone (in the first half), we put (Sarah) Shoemaker down on the baseline because we wanted to get a tall kid with some playmaking abilities inside that zone to make some passes to Josie and keep their defense from putting too many people on her.” With Shoemaker getting the ball in the short corner, Buckingham was able to repost and get some better looks at the basket. While the New Richmond offense started to click later in the quarter, their defense was on point from the get-go, giving up just three points in the first quarter and five in the first half. “I think this is the best defensive team that I’ve ever coached,” Hatfield said, “and probably the best defensive team I’ve seen this season. “We don’t make too many defensive mistakes, but we have someone who can erase those mistakes. We’re active and tenacious

and get hustle plays and all those things contribute to our defense.” The Lady Lions were able to blow open the game in the second quarter with their transition buckets and half-court sets that picked apart the Ross zone. Aside from Workman in transition and Buckingham on the low block, New Richmond got some unexpected help from Courtney Grogan on her birthday. “She had 10 big points and hit a three,” Hatfield said. “I thought she was a

big part of what we were able to do tonight.” With a 23-5 lead at the break, New Richmond had the game well in hand. However, a third quarter lull in intensity was something Hatfield wasn’t pleased with. Ross got to within eight points, but couldn’t get any closer. The Lady Lions put the pressure back on to start the fourth quarter, getting eight quick points to open up a See NewRich, Page B12

It seemed to happen so quickly to the Williamsburg girls’ basketball team last Saturday morning. After taking each punch from a talented Greeneview squad in the first half of the teams matchup in the semifinal of the Southwest District Division III sectional at Wilmington and responding, the Lady Wildcats slow start to the second half put them in a hole they could not dig out of. The Lady Rams scored the first 11 points of the second half and never looked back as they rolled to a 8156 victory that ended the Lady Wildcats’ season. “They came out ready to play and we came out flat,” Williamsburg coach Ken Lowe said of the defining eight minutes. “The third quarter was too much to overcome.” It seemed as though the Lady Wildcats put themselves in position for a battle in the second half after a back-and-forth first two

quarters of action. Though Greeneview and star guard Ashton Lovely played well in the first half, the Lady Wildcats stayed right with them as they executed their game plan. Williamsburg had even taken a lead late in the first half when Tara Dennis hit two free throws to push the Lady Wildcats to a 31-29 lead before the Lady Rams scored the final six points of the half to take a 35-31 lead into the locker room. As the teams came out of the locker room it quickly became apparent the Lady Rams were taking control, building a 41-31 lead just over a minute into the half. Dennis and Heidi McManus did their best to keep the Lady Wildcats in it, but the Lady Rams were not to be denied. Three Lovely 3-pointers highlighted a Lady Rams 11-0 run after McManus’ free throw that burst open the game. The play of Lovely was a big reason for the Lady Rams success. She scored 45 points, including eight 3-

pointers. “She was a tough matchup for us,” Lowe said. “We’ve got some great defenders but we’ve never

played against a player of her caliber. Her offensive game, her passing ability...she’s just a great player.”

Williamsburg continued to fight despite a large deficit after three quarters. McManus - who scored a team-best 21 points and grabbed 10 rebounds (eight offensive) - hit a 3pointer to cut the lead to 20, 62-42, with 6:15 left in the game. Then Dennis - who scored 15 points and grabbed 12 rebounds - converted an old-fashioned three-point play off an offensive rebound. The basket and free throw got Williamsburg within 63-45 with 5:50 left. “They didn’t give up,” Lowe said of his team. “They’re a tough bunch of kids.” Though they put a valiant effort in the final quarter, the Lady Wildcats could get no closer as Lovely and her teammates put them away in the waning minutes with their continued hot shooting. Despite a disappointing ending, the play of Dennis, McManus and fellow seniors Courtney Wagers and Ryan Gifford helped the

Lady Wildcats to a very good season that saw them finish above .500 and battle perennial Southern Buckeye Conference National Division power Georgetown for the league title. “It’s a good group. It really is a good group,” Lowe said of the seniors. “We finished out at 13-8, which since I’ve been here - and I’ve been here five years it’s probably the best record we’ve had the school’s history. “We were able to get to the point where we finished out 8-2 in our league, second behind Georgetown. And our only two losses we had were to Georgetown. So, it was a good season.” Greeneview (18-4) – Walters 2 1 5, Rice 1 1 3, Siebenaler 2 2 6, Lovely 14 9 45, Liming 3 0 6, Sonneman 5 0 10, Combs 3 0 6. Totals 30 13 81.

New Richmond, Bethel-Tate lead Clermont into districts BY CHRIS CHANEY Sun staff

Clermont County will be well represented when the district wrestling meets are held this coming weekend. 48 wrestlers were able to advance from seven schools led by 13 from New Richmond, 10 from Bethel-Tate and eight from Glen Este. The Lions and Tigers were the big winners from the Division II sectional at Western Brown on Friday and Saturday, Feb. 17 and 18. Out of a possible 14 weight classes, the top four placers in each weight class would advance to the district meet. New Richmond was able to put 13 wrestlers through, including seven first-place finishers. “The guys are working extremely hard,” New Richmond coach Deron Shinkle said. “All of those kids have the potential to get to state, it just depends on our draws and if we can stay healthy.” The Lions that will be moving on are A.J. Rostetter (106 lbs. – 1st), Brody Hooks (113 lbs. – 1st), Austin Skaggs (120 lbs. – 1st), Cody Gabelman (126 – 1st), Robbie Lemar (138 lbs. – 2nd), Tyler Loyd (132 lbs. – 3rd), Cory English (160 lbs. – 2nd), Kevin Reid (170 lbs. – 2nd), James White (182 lbs. – 2nd), Nathan Dixon (220 lbs. – 1st) and J.R. Forsee (285 lbs. – 1st). “I look for Brody Hooks to move on,” Shinkle said. “He was a state qualifier last year. Same with J.R. Forsee. Austin Skaggs was at state as a sophomore. James White was just a couple matches away last year. “The other guys are wrestling really well now, too. Nathan Dixon is really turning it on and Corey Gabelman looks good.” For Bethel, they will send 10 qualifiers to districts, but Coach Tom Donahue was pleased with his entire team as they had a wrestler place in the top six in every weight class. “Out of those 14 kids, 12 of them are underclassmen so not only is it good for this year, but it also bodes well for our future,” he said. Qualifying for Bethel-

Tate are Nate Closser (106 lbs. – 3rd), Travis Bee (113 lbs. – 3rd), Aric Peters (120 lbs. – 2nd), Brian Carter (126 lbs. – 2nd), Chip Ratcliff (132 lbs. – 1st), Tyler Krekeler (145 lbs. – 4th), Josh East (160 lbs. – 3rd), Jon Ward (195 lbs. – 1st), R.J. Stanfield (220 lbs. – 3rd) and Kian Mollette (285 lbs. – 3rd). Predictably, Donahue expects the most from his two first-place finishers, Ratcliff and Ward. “Chip Ratcliff probably has the best shot,” he said. “He surpassed 100 wins at the sectional, he’s sitting at 103 right now, so he has a good shot. “Jon Ward, Aric Peters and Brian Carter all have a shot of getting to state, but they all have to come out and wrestle well. Nothing is given to them.” Also qualifying in Division II are five wrestlers from Goshen, headlined by defending state champion Chaz Gresham (182 lbs. – 1st). The others are Tanner Rahm (113 lbs. – 4th), Billy Combs (126 lbs. – 4th), Anthony Carome (152 lbs. – 1st) and Zane Ellis (195 lbs. – 3rd). Batavia will send three

wrestlers. They are Mike Almond (145 lbs. – 3rd), Gabe Archer (182 lbs. – 4th) and Nicholas Bonavita (195 lbs. – 4th).

32-16 lead with five minutes left in the game. At that point, Hatfield felt comfortable calling it a night for Buckingham and Workman. Buckingham finished with 11 points and Workman added 15 more, 12 of which came off of fast breaks. The Lady Lions advanced to play Talawanda in the second round of the

yard backstroke and Matulis qualified for the 100yard breaststroke with a time of 59.24. The final event the Eagles qualified for was the 400yard freestyle relay. That relay finished sixth at the district meet with a time that placed them 19th in the state. The team is made up of Williams, Thomas Prus, Matulis and Robinson. “I couldn’t have asked for more out of everything they did,” Kleinfelter said. “The times were fantastic, our district meet was fantastic. I think we really held our own, especially with just five guys swimming in seven events.” While it was a thrill to get as many guys through as possible, Kleinfelter only sees a few possibilities for high finishes at the state meet. “The medley relay is ranked eighth and if we can

get everything in order, we should have a good shot,” she said. “But going up against St. Xavier and St. Francis (De Sales of Toledo), we have to hope we have a good day and they are having an off day.” The Milford girls’ team was unable to get anyone through from districts to state, but Kleinfelter was pleased with the effort and progress her team made. “I think the girls had a great season,” she said. “We had a lot of time drops. We broke the 200-yard medley relay record at districts that’s been up since 2000 and quite a few swimmers had lifetime-best times. “We finished the year strong and it’s a good place to start from next year.” Aside from Milford, New Richmond was represented at the Division II district meet and although they didn’t have anyone qualify for the state meet, coach Judy Middleler considered the

year a success. “They swam well,” she said. “They didn’t beat their overall goals, but they did well for being in such a big meet. “ Three swimmers notched personal bests at the district meet. Derek Gelter swam his best split in the 200-yard freestyle relay, Kara Burns had her best times in the 100-yard breaststroke and 500-yard freestyle and Alex Ariapad had his best time in his 50-yard leg of the 200yard freestyle relay and his 50-yard butterfly leg in the 200-yard medley relay. Middeler said that she was proud of how hard her team worked and the times they posted, mostly because of the fact that most of her team only swims in-season. “We want to keep improving,” Middeler said. “They worked hard and put forth the effort. I’m hoping some might do some summer swimming and we can build on this year.”

sectional tournament. “Talawanda’s a real nice team,” Hatfield said. “Their guards are little and quick and shoot the ball well. Their post players are big and strong and rebound the ball well. So, they’re going to be tough to guard. “We’re definitely going to have our hands full. They’re the No. 4 seed and I’m not sure they didn’t deserve the No. 2 seed from what I’ve seen.”

The game was scheduled for Wednesday, Feb. 22 at 7:30 p.m. at Withrow. Ross – Bennett 1 0 2, Merril 0 4 4, Pennekamp 2 1 5, Harris 1 1 3, Golsch 1 2 4, Price 1 0 2. Totals: 6 8 20.

think it was a good learning experience for the kids,” she said. “By going to big tournament like sectionals, they were able to see how their nerves can affect them and they should be better for it next year.” The Goshen girls finished 12th as a team at their sectional, led by Yanisha Robbins individual score of 411, 84 pins back of the last qualifying spot. Heading up to Eastern Lanes, the Glen Este Lady Trojans have a tall task ahead of them, but with the resolve they showed on Friday, Demarko believes they can turn some heads if her team brings their “A” game. “We had a little trouble getting off to a good start in the individual games,” Demarko said. “Leading off is a lot of pressure and my girls were having a tough time picking up their spares. No one got down, no one gave up and the key to suc-

cess is having a level head. “I always tell the girls it doesn’t matter if you come in first or if you come in fifth because the next week it doesn’t make a difference. “We were able to put Gabby (Ruehlman) up there (in the first spot) in the third game and she propelled us into the top five.” Demarko believes going up to Eastern will be a good experience for Glen Este, especially with such a young core of talent. The level of competition is much higher once you get the schools from up around Dayton, Demarko explained, but if the Lady Trojans bring their best stuff, Demarko believes they could advance up to state. “I’d be willing to bet that your state champion comes out of Eastern,” she said. Even if the team is unable to qualify, the individuals still have a chance to move on by themselves and if that is to happen, they will have the rest of their team cheering them on at Wayne

Webb’s Columbus Bowl on March 3.
