Texting-while-driving ban goes to council By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers Dublin could be the next Ohio city to prohibit texting while driving. Dublin City Council on Jan. 24 heard the first reading of amendments to a current ordinance that will allow officers to pull over and cite drivers who are texting while driving.
City law director Stephen Smith said the city’s distracted driving ordinance would be amended if approved by council next month. The amendments prohibit “texting, accessing the internet, instant messaging and reading any such information,” the staff report said. According to the proposed amendments, texting while driving would be
a primary offense, which means “a police officer may initiate a traffic stop based solely on a violation of this ordinance,” the staff report said. “We’ve been able to create an ordinance we think is enforceable,” Smith told council. Texting while driving would also become a fourth-degree misdemeanor, as would full time attention, which was
previously a minor misdemeanor. According to Dublin’s code, a fourthdegree misdemeanor carries a maximum penalty of a $150 fine and up to 30 days in jail. If approved, Dublin will still permit drivers to make and receive calls and use GPS systems, but they would have to be careful. “An officer can pull over someone on
the phone who’s not paying attention,” interim police chief Heinz von Eckartsberg said. Council member Cathy Boring, who previously cited concerns about enforcing a ban on texting while driving, complimented staff’s efforts. “Thanks for not bringing us an addiSee TEXTING, page A2

In return, Nationwide Children’s Hospital will build a 22,000-squarefoot Sports Medicine and Orthopedics facility on Venture Drive that will bring 52 jobs to Dublin by the end of 2015. Gilger said the agreement also includes a second clause with identical incentives that could bring a 30,000square-foot medical office building to Dublin before the end of 2020. “This will more than double our presence (in Dublin),” Bill Byers, vice
The Dublin school district has hit the snooze button on a decision on moving Dublin’s high school start time back to allow students more sleep. Superintendent David Axner originally intended to make a recommendation regarding the start time for Dublin’s three high schools during a Jan. 24 meeting, but analysis of busing and costs is taking longer than anticipated. A recommendation is expected within the next month, however. The recommendation to push back the start time for Dublin high school students stems from a late November study released by the School Reform Task Force. The committee of parents, teachers, staff, administrators and other representatives met for more than a year to look at best practices in school-day times. After the presentation, Axner said he was “convinced” moving the high school start time back from 7:25 a.m. was needed. Axner said the school district has ruled out busing middle and high school students together, which was originally viewed as an option for pushing the high school start time back and keeping middle and elementary school times the same. “It would definitely be cost prohibitive,” he said of busing middle and high school students together. “It’s not the time to be spending more dollars …” The solution the district is currently working toward, Axner said, is “squeezing” time in between bus routes. Elementary, middle and high school students would still be bused separately, but there would be little time in between each route. The option would have the high schools starting at 8 a.m., Axner said. “That would be the earliest any school would start,” he said. “We’re trying to do the best we can to save time. We’re doing creative scheduling that will impact the bus routes.” An 8 a.m. start for high school students would be 35 minutes later than the current start.

Incentive plans approved to bring, retain jobs By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Economic development agreements that could retain up to 80 jobs and add more than 700 to Dublin’s economy has been approved by city council. Dublin City Council on Jan. 24 unanimously approved six incentive packages to retain or draw companies to the city, eventually resulting in more than $8-million for the city. The largest economic development agreement offered to Alcatel-Lucent isn’t certain to draw the company to Dublin, however. The city is offering the telecommunications equipment manufactur-
er a $500,000 location grant, two fiberoptic lines in the DubLink system and performance incentives on income tax withholdings, which is estimated to cost the city about $1.5-million over the 10-year agreement. In return, Alcatel-Lucent would locate in Dublin for 10 years, bringing more than 500 jobs. The city anticipates netting $6.3million during the 10-year agreement. Alcatel-Lucent is looking at moving from its current location on East Broad Street in Columbus, said Colleen Gilger, economic development administrator. “We’re been identified as the final choice in Ohio,” she said, adding that other states are being considered.
Paul Erwin, director of communications for the company, told council members the current building “no longer fits the needs of our employees. “We’re very committed to staying in Ohio because we’ve had such a great run here,” he said. “We’d really like to retain these jobs for the region,” Mayor Tim Lecklider told him. Erwin said the company is still in negotiations with a landlord and isn’t sure how soon the company will make a decision on where it will locate. Another incentive package approved this week will bring more Nationwide Children’s Hospital facilities to Dublin, and includes a $15,000
Jazz legend, clinic New restaurant offering flatbread fare await Coffman jazz bands in New York By JENNIFER NOBLIT

The Coffman High School jazz bands are New York-bound. The three jazz bands, including 56 students, will travel to New York City in late March to meet a jazz legend and get some pointers. A trip to Cleveland five years ago sparked a lot of interest in jazz and band director Jeremy Bradstreet said another trip is due. “Five years ago we went to Cleveland and what it did for us was it got kids really excited about play jazz music,” he said. “We’ve been living off that trip for four years now.”
Bradstreet, who directs Coffman’s jazz bands along with Andrew Rice and Kevin Wallick, will lead the students to New York to meet jazz great Wynton Marsalis. A 2004 Coffman graduate hooked them up. “Jono Gasparro is Marsalis’personal assistant,” Bradstreet said. “I called him up and said, ‘I’d like to see about bringing the jazz band to New York City.’He has arranged for our band to perform in Lincoln Center and we’re going to be given a clinic by some Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra musicians.

Two bankers are taking a shot at flatbreadbased food in the Avery Square Shopping Center. Sandella’s Flatbread Café opened earlier this month at 7038 Hospital Drive, touting what owner Chris Kavalieros calls “fresh, healthy and delicious” fare. “We both used to work together at Chase (Bank),” said Mike Czarnecki, who balances his job at Huntington Bank with managerial responsibilities at Sandella’s. “We both wanted something different.” The duo started to look into franchise opportunities. “We don’t have any restaurant experience, so a franchise seemed like the best way to go,” Czarnecki said.

Texting-while-driving ban goes to council Continued from page A1 tional law,” she said. Boring also called attention to the city’s campaign against texting while driving, which began late last year. “Thanks to (council member) Michael Keenan for pushing the educational aspect,” she said, noting that many residents have
signed an online pledge to not text and drive. The city began a campaign against texting while driving in December after council members asked staff to pen a law against the act. The website, dublinohiocares.me, carries information on the dangers of texting while driving, videos and a pledge. Keenan said the city has been contacted by the family of a boy who was killed while
texting and driving about their educational efforts. Photos and other information from the family that Keenan said “pulls at your heart strings” will be included in the city’s educational campaign. The amendments regarding texting while driving will go before Dublin City Council members for a second and final reading on Feb. 14.
School start-time Six incentive plans approved to decision delayed bring, retain jobs Continued from page A1
Continued from page A1 president of external relations for Nationwide Children’s Hospital said. Council also approved a three-year 20 percent performance incentive on income tax withholdings, which is capped at $22,000, with Fast Switch. The agreement will allow the Dublin-based information technology company to create 25 new jobs by the end of 2013. “We’ve been here in Dublin since 1996 and we have about 300 employees. We’d really like to stay here,” said Mark Pukita, Fast Switch chief operating officer. Fast Switch grew by about 65 percent last year and Pukita said he expects to grow by 25 percent over the next few years. Other economic development agreements approved were: • A deal with Equity Resources that will bring 12 new jobs to Dublin for incentives capped at $12,500 over the four-year agreement. • A four-year incentive package capped at $34,000 for Infomotion Technologies Inc. for creating 45 new jobs in Dublin by the end of 2014. • A four-year, 18-percent performance incentive on income tax withholdings for HealthSpot. The healthcare technology company will create 60 new jobs by the end of 2014. Council members applauded the economic development department for its hard work. “There is not one person that came up (before council) that didn’t mention the great economic environment in Dublin,” Cathy Boring said.
“The (School Reform Task Force) recommended a 45-minute increase, but all of the research supports 30 minutes more,” Axner said. More work on school bus routes is planned over the next few weeks, with an official recommendation expected next month. “I would anticipate a solid, firm recommendation would be done at the Feb. 14 board meeting. By then we’ve got to know. We have handbooks being put together and school calendars,” Axner said. “What I don’t want to do is wait one more year.” During the School Reform Task Force’s November presentation, members said pushing the high school start time back by at least 45 minutes would be beneficial for students.

grades and other benefits. Some studies linked a lack of sleep with an increase in auto accidents among teens. The task force also presented surveys given to students, teachers and parents on different start times. In student surveys, 42 percent of Dublin high school students admitted to falling asleep during class one or more times a week. In the same survey, 37 percent of students reported driving to school feeling drowsy one or more times a week, although 42 percent of students surveyed said it never happens to them.

New relay chair hopes to use business experience By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The new leader of this year’s Dublin Relay For Life is hoping to use his networking skills to draw more participants to the June fundraiser. Tim Gaffney, the new chair of the American Cancer Society fundraiser, has never attended a Relay For Life, but he has lots of ideas for the June 11 and 12 event at Dublin Coffman High School. Gaffney got involved with the Dublin Relay For Life after meeting ACS staff member Amber Miller at a networking event. “I’ve actually had folks in my family touched by cancer and I met Amber at a networking event and we talked about relay,” he said. “She asked me if I wanted to volunteer and one thing led to another and I became the chairperson.” Gaffney returned to Dublin three years ago after living in Phoenix,Ariz., but graduated from the Ohio State University and lived in Dublin for 12 years before business took him out of town. The new relay chair is a business consultant and hopes to bring skills from his day job to his new volunteer position. “I work a lot. But I like it. I’m a business consultant,” Gaffney said. “I do consulting to get businesses to think differently because they have to. If you run around town with the same business plan you’ve had for three or four years,
you’re not going to be very successful.” Dublin’s business community could be used as a source of volunteers for relay, Gaffney said. “My experience is in networking in the business community and I hope to utilize those strengths to bring new volunteers to the event as well as making sure existing volunteers are still engaged,” he said. Visions for this year’s Relay For Life are ever-changing, but Gaffney said he wants to focus on getting the business community involved and recognizing cancer survivors. “It’s a living vision. It changes almost daily, but my vision is to make it a featured event and a marquee event of Franklin County. I believe Dublin can have the best relay in central Ohio,” he said. Along with a new location for the 2011 Dublin Relay For Life, Gaffney said people can expect a few other surprises. “Logistically there won’t be a lot of changes, but there will be a lot of new things. It’s going to be off the wall and we want to make it a lot of fun for the teams who spend the night at the school,” he said. “We’re definitely going to get more community involvement with a heavy focus on the business community. I didn’t see a lot of business-support teams that participated last year.” Despite rumors, Gaffney said he’s working to keep the Blarney
Hop relay fundraiser that follows Dublin’s St. Patrick’s Day parade. “The Blarney Hop is not dead. I’m going to make every effort to keep that on track for the community and for relay,” he said. “It’s building momentum. It’s a good event for the community.” But recruiting teams and volunteers is also a major responsibility for the new relay chair. Gaffney said volunteers meet monthly at the Dublin Community Recreation Center and anyone interested in volunteering or forming a team can stop by. The group will meet in Tallas 3 Feb. 8 at the recreation center. Organizational meetings are held at 6 p.m. and team meetings will follow at 7. The ACS on Frantz Road is also hosting a business afterhours networking event for the Dublin Chamber of Commerce from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Feb. 15. Fundraising for relay has also begun with the annual daffodil sale; Gaffney said orders are due Feb. 25 and pickup is the week of March 13. A bunch of daffodils is $10, a bunch with a teddy bear is $25 and a potted bunch is $12. For more information, or to place an order, e-mail Gaffney at ttgaff71@aol.com.

New restaurant offering flatbread fare Continued from page A1 it would be good,” Czarnecki said. They visited the Washington, D.C., area to check out a few established Sandella’s locations and Kavalieros said he liked what he saw. The menu for Sandella’s includes wraps, paninis, quesadillas, grilled flatbreads and salads. “I’m a foodie and trying it was key,” he said. “It’s a great fit and the CEO is fantastic. We really couldn’t be more happy.” With a franchise established, Kavalieros said they spent six months scouting locations. “Initially we looked at Polaris because that’s the area we live in, but Dublin was on our radar,” he said, noting that Dublin’s demographic is perfect for Sandella’s. The proximity to U.S. Route 33 and the Dublin Methodist Hospital were also draws. “Because (the food is healthy) it’s nice to be by the hospital,” Czarnecki said. “We really have something to brag about: fresh, healthy and delicious food,” Kavalieros said. While calorie counts are listed on the menu posted in the store and dishes include lots of fresh veg-
etables, Czarnecki said the restaurant goes beyond that. “The signature flatbread has no preservatives. It’s low salt, no fat,” he said. The Avery Square location doesn’t have bragging rights as the first Sandella’s in Ohio. Czarnecki said a store opened at Dennison University shortly before their Jan. 6 opening date. The store has set its grand opening for Jan. 27. Czarnecki said he wanted to get operations flowing smoothly before the opening celebration. But in just a few weeks, Kavalieros said they already have some regulars. “I’m working every other evening and I talked to a guy who came in by himself and then brought his wife and then brought his boys,” he said. “There’s another couple — they’ve been in three times. It’s near where they live and their gym. They’re hooked. They say they love it.” Sandella’s is open from 10:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 10:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday. Kavalieros said the restaurant is hoping to eventually add smoothies to the menu and introduce evening family activities such as Wii night. For more information, look online at sandellas.com.
Jazz legend, clinic await Coffman jazz bands in New York Continued from page A1 ucational parts of it.” After a clinic with a few professional jazz musicians, the students will get to see the Wynton Marsalis concert. “Jono said, ‘Marsalis is performing; We should get you tickets.’Jono is going to have Marsalis talk to the kids after the performance,” Bradstreet said. “After we see one of the greatest jazz musicians alive we will get to go back and say hello to him.” The willingness of professional jazz musicians to talk with students is one of the benefits of the field, Bradstreet said. “The thing that I love about jazz is how that music is passed on from generation to generation. Not all art forms share the music as much as jazz musicians do,” he said. “For you to say you get to
meet the next pop star - you’re not going to get that opportunity unless you win something. However jazz musicians are very open and always have been open.” The New York trip won’t be entirely focus on music, though. A visit to the Today Show, an NBC tour, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and a harbor lights cruise that goes around the Statue of Liberty are also on the agenda. “It’s designed to be, hopefully, a fantastic trip,” Bradstreet said. But the March 31 trip won’t come without some work. Students are conducting candy bar and sub sales as well as a Valentine’s Day dinner dance to raise funds for the trip. The Feb. 11 dinner dance at the Embassy Suites of Dublin is a first for the jazz bands, Bradstreet said. “We have had a couple of big performances. In the past we’ve
shared the stage with the Cleveland Jazz Orchestra and the Columbus Jazz Orchestra, but this is our first dinner dance,” he said. All three jazz bands will play at the adults-only dinner dance and the repertoire will include jazz and some rock. “I think the crowd will be a mix of all ages, so we’ll hit on something for everybody,” Bradstreet said. The dinner dance is set to begin at 6 p.m. Feb. 11, with an Italian dinner buffet including chicken parmesan, vegetable lasagna, vegetable medley, pasta salad, Caesar salad, bread and dessert served at 6:30. Dancing will run from 7:30 to 10 p.m. Tickets to the dinner dance are $32 and can be purchased from any jazz band member or by contacting Kevin Wallick at 614-7188068 or via e-mail at wallick_ kevin@dublinschools.net.

Nominations are sought for special school awards It’s All About Family! Dublin City Schools has many programs in place to recognize students who achieve academically and in extracurricular activities. The Community Champion Awards is a different type of recognition ceremony. The program recognizes students and staff members who exhibit caring, kindness, and a sense of community spirit. Do you know a student goes the extra mile to make our community a better place? Do you know a student who volunteers his or her time on weekends or in the evenings? Do you know a staff member that exhibits a gentle and caring attitude toward students? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, I encourage you to submit a nomination before the Feb. 11 deadline. Nominations may be made on online today at www.dublinchamber.org/cca. One of the most rewarding aspects of the Community Champion Awards is how students react to receiving the award. The sense of accomplishment and pride is evident on students’ faces when they walk across the stage at Dublin Jerome each April. Here are a few snippets from past nominations to provide you with some examples on what type of nominations the committee is seeking. • Junior, Jerome High School—This student was recognized for her integrity and compassion when helping others.

into a nomination, the better chance it has of being accepted, and your nominee invited to the ceremony. The DAVID above examples are from AXNER much longer nominations. The chamber’s board of directors and school district personnel review the nominations and select the winners. All nominations are carefully scrutinized and verified. The program has become a Dublin institution in only four years of existence and has been the recipient of both Ohio and national public relations awards. The program is open to Dublin City Schools students in grades 4 – 12, as well as all staff. More than 200 students and staff members were nominated for last year’s event. Those who are nominated will not know they are nominated unless notified by the chamber that they have been selected for the awards program. Each Community Champion Award winner will receive a limited edition medal. In addition, one senior from each high school will receive a $500 cash scholar-
ship, one student from each grade 4-11 will receive a $100 savings bond, and one Dublin City Schools staff member will have a $500 donation made in their name to the school project of their choice.

Dublin slates book, movie swap for Jan. 29 By JENNIFER NOBLIT ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Dublin’s giving anyone bored with their home library a chance to freshen it up. Residents can trade books and DVDs this weekend when the Dublin Community Recreation Center hosts the annual Community Book and Movie Swap. The swap will be held in the community hall of the recreation center, 5600 Post Road. The all-ages event has been going on in Dublin for several years, said organizer Jennifer Vosters, and last year brought in about 500 books and 100 DVDs for community members to swap. “But last year was a small year,” she said. “The year before, we definitely had more than that. It really depends on the weather.” Residents can bring books and DVDs to the recreation center between 9:30 and 10 a.m. Jan. 29 and will receive a ticket redeemable for the same number of books and/or DVDs brought in. Vosters said the books and DVDs must be in good shape, although there is no time for recreation
center staff or volunteers to test the DVDs, so “it kind of runs on the honor system.” Books must not be missing pages, though, and DVDs must be in their original cases, Vosters said. The swap runs from 10 a.m. to noon and is firstcome first-served when picking out new books and DVDs. Books are divided by genre such as teen, fiction, instructional and children’s books to help with searches. “We get everything from college textbooks to picture books to cookbooks to New York Times best sellers,” said swap organizer Abbey Brooks. Some people only donate items to the swap, Brooks said, wanting to get rid of books their children have grown out of. When the swap has leftover items, it is opened up to people at the recreation center. Leftovers are either used at the recreation center or donated. Vosters said a box of books was shipped south a few years ago to victims of Hurricane Katrina. For more information on the Jan. 29 swap, look online at Dublin.oh.us.

City news Dublin again named top 7 ‘smart’ community The Intelligent Community Forum announced the 2011 Top Seven Intelligent Communities this week and Dublin was again on the list. Dublin was named a “Smart21 Community” in October for the fifth time, although last year was the first time the city reached the top seven list. As a top seven community, Dublin last year received a visit from Louis Zacharilla, the cofounder of the Intelligent Community Forum. Zacharilla spent three days in Dublin evaluating the city and how it has prepared itself for the future. This year’s theme for the Intelligent Community contest set forth by the New York-based think tank, Intelligent Community Forum, is based on innovative approaches to delivering
healthcare while increasing productivity and eliminating unneeded costs, the website said. According to a release from the Intelligent Community Forum, Dublin was chosen because “fiber and wireless broadband have penetrated and transformed every aspect of economic life in this community, from education to business, sports to government, and helped to create a wave of entrepreneurial growth.” Other communities that made the top seven list include: Chattanooga, Tenn.; Eindhoven, Netherlands; Issy-les-Moulineaux, France; Riverside, Cal.; Stratford, Ontario, Canada; and Windsor-Essex, Ontario, Canada. The Intelligent Community of the Year will be announced in June. For additional information, look online at intelligentcom-

THE NEW RULES OF MORTGAGE BORROWING Now that the real estate market has undergone a metamorphosis of sorts, would be homeowners are advised to adjust their expectations accordingly. The fact is that the new rules of mortgage borrowing are actually the old rules that were disregarded for a time. That is, a mortgage amount should be limited to up to three times a buyer’s gross annual income. Lenders are likely to limit borrower’s total monthly housing payment (including principal, interest, insurance, and taxes) to 28% of their gross income (with total debt limited to 36%) with this in mind, a couple with a 20% down payment, a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage of 5%, and a $100,000 income can afford a mortgage of up to $300,000.

Zoo news Zoo mourns loss of 46-year-old gorilla Lulu, a 46-year-old western lowland gorilla, died at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium this week. The gorilla, who suffered from arthritis, had a seizure on Jan. 22, a news release from the zoo said. “The frequency and severity of the seizures progressed and on Monday, Jan. 24, while being se-
dated in preparation for an MRI she stopped breathing and could not be resuscitated,” the release said. An autopsy is being performed. Lulu was born in Africa and at age 2 was brought to the Central Park Zoo in 1966. In 1984, Lulu came to the Columbus zoo, where she had three babies. Lulu was also a member of the zoo’s gorilla surrogacy program and mothered two infants.
“When she came to the Columbus Zoo our first impression of Lulu was she was one tough lady,” animal care and conservation vice president Dusty Lombardi said in the release, “but it wasn’t long before she showed us her sweet maternal side. She was also funloving and enjoyed playing hide and seek with her keepers.” Zoo staff invite the public to share memories of Lulu on the Columbus Zoo Facebook page.

Music Studio Expands to Serve Community Better First Choice Music Studio adds space and new instructors to provide additional convenient lesson times. First Choice Music Studio has added additional space to their music teaching studio and added new teachers to offer more lesson times to the residents of Dublin. According to Studio Director Michael Rak, the studio has grown faster that anticipated since first opening its Dublin location two years ago. The fast growth is due to a dedication to providing convenient top quality instruction to its students. The studio has added new members to its teaching staff and has upgraded facilities by such things as purchasing new pianos and guitar amplifiers. February will mark the two-year anniversary of First Choice Music Studio’s Dublin location which augmented its original location in North Columbus on Indianola just north of Morse Rd. Expanded lesson times save time for busy families Studio Director Rak says that many of the parents choose the studio because in addition to having excellent teachers, programs, and convenient location close to where they live, it is possible to have one child in guitar lessons while the other is in piano lessons. The teaching studios are very large with a comfortable waiting area for parents just outside the lesson rooms. Many parents choose to visit the nearby Dublin library or run errands at one of the many shops in downtown Dublin.
The studio also has many evening and weekend lesson times to accommodate more students in “first choice” times. Between the pressures of homework, sports and family time, a lot of parents can be overwhelmed trying to fit in all the activities. Rak says that many parents and kids are so busy that saving 45 minutes or an hour of commuting time per week between activities really helps the typical busy family’s schedule, and being close to where they live saves even more time when they don’t have to leave the community for lessons. New Staff First Choice Music Studio has added new teachers to its staff. Educationally parents are very impressed with the staff. The studio currently has 9 staff members. All of the music teachers hold a university degree as a minimum and many have a music education degree, state certification, a master’s degree or even a Ph.D. The studio handles everything from 5-year-old beginners to extremely advanced, university level students. Due to the number of teachers on staff, the students are matched up with teacher that best meet their needs and who relate well to them. Large Variety of Music Lessons A large diversity of instruments is taught from the typical guitar,
piano, and voice, etc. to the less common bassoon, viola and tuba. Although a large number of students choose to take the traditional classical style lessons, the studio also has a very large number of students that study pop, jazz or contemporary music. The main focus is on helping students’ gain the skills they need to enjoy music long after music lessons are over. In fact Studio Director Rak says that the mission of the studio is “To provide students of all ages with the skills they need to enjoy music for their lifetime.” The benefits of playing an instrument or singing are enormous, Rak says. From fostering creativity, and self-discipline, improving intelligence, reading, and math skills even leading to higher income later in life, studies have shown that learning to play or sing can be one of the best things that you can do for yourself or your child. And best of all, its great fun. Due to the expansion of teaching times, additional studio space and staff, First Choice Music Studio is accepting new registrations now and throughout the winter. For more information contact the studio at 614-570-5834 or visit FirstChoiceMusicStudio.com for helpful information on getting started in music lessons.

Swimming & Diving
Area teams preparing for OCC meets By FRANK DiRENNA ThisWeek Community Newspapers With the regular season winding down, Nichole Gill and her teammates on the Dublin Coffman High School girls swimming and diving team are setting their sights on another successful postseason. The junior has represented the program the last two seasons at the Division I state meet, and she is hoping for a return trip this season. The state meet will be held Feb. 23-26 at the C.T. Branin Natatorium in Canton.
However, before the start of the postseason, the Shamrocks will compete in the OCC-Central Division championships. The diving competition will be held Friday, Jan. 28, at New Albany and the swimming competition will be Saturday, Jan. 29, at Thomas Worthington. Coach Steven VonSchrilitz expects perennial powerhouse Upper Arlington to dominate in both the boys and girls meets, but he hopes his teams can contend for second. “We’ll be battling with (Thomas) Worthington probably,” VonSchrilitz said.
“I think we’ll do really well at the meet,” said Gill, who placed third at state last season in the 100-yard breaststroke (1 minute, 5.28 seconds). “Steve will probably have a big talk with us before and get us pumped up.” The three Dublin schools will compete in the Dublin Classic on Feb. 5 at the Dublin Recreation Center, as all three programs will recognize their seniors. For Coffman, the postseason starts with the sectional meet Feb. 12 at UA, followed by the district meet Feb. 19 at Thomas and the state meet.
Although the Shamrocks have yet to set any program records this season, VonSchrilitz expects to set new marks in the postseason. The girls team may have to compete in the OCC-Central meet without a key swimmer in Cara Demyan, who has a knee injury. VonSchrilitz said the freshman’s status for the league meet was questionable. •Jerome is spending this week preparing for the OCC-Cardinal meet. The diving competition will be held Friday, Jan. 28, at New Albany and the
swimming competition will be held Saturday, Jan. 29, at the Union County YMCA in Marysville. Coach Tyler Prose expects his teams to vie for a high finish. “I don’t know if we’re going to win it, but I know we’ll place high,” Prose said. “We’ll be fine. We’re going after individual swims. We still have a lot of young kids on our team. “We’re right where I expected (the boys and girls teams) to be. I was hopSee SWIMMING, page B3

Hockey
Irish getting more offensive help By AARON BLANKENSHIP ThisWeek Community Newspapers Dublin Scioto High School hockey coach Chad Ellis would like to see more players contributing offensively as he did in a recent stretch of games. The Irish won four consecutive games from Jan. 15 through Jan. 21. During that stretch, Grant Noppenberger had
six goals and two assists, Zach Vallette had eight goals and 10 assists, and goaltender Chris Beatty had 67 saves. Also during that span, five players — Colin Best, Andy Harrigan, Reece Harter, Tyler Smoot and Paul Tela — scored their first goal of the season and Bryant Tela got his first assist. According to Ellis, the Irish need to continue to get that kind of production
from their role players to be successful over the final two weeks of the regular season as well as in the Blue Jackets Cup and the district tournament. “Our two captains, Zach and Grant, stepped up their games and Chris Beatty stood on his head to lead us, but those three have been consistently playing well all year,” Ellis said. “The exciting thing is we’ve had a lot of role players
who don’t normally score step up and score, and when they do that, we’re a much better team. If we can keep that up, we should be more competitive the rest of the way.” The Irish started their winning streak during the MLK Tournament held Jan. 14-16 in Monroe, Mich. See HOCKEY, page B3
Basketball
Youngsters playing key roles for Coffman girls By THAD PLUMLEY ThisWeek Community Newspapers
There are days at practice when Dublin Coffman High School girls basketball coach Bryan Patton might feel as though he is overseeing a junior varsity team. Not because of the talent displayed — the Shamrocks were 10-4 overall before playing Westland on Jan. 25 — but because of the age of the players. Coffman is young. Very young, in fact. Of the 14 players on the roster, 10 are freshmen or sophomores. “They’re a fun group to be around,” Patton said. “They practice the way you’re supposed to practice and play the game the way you’re supposed to play the game. I’m glad this group is my building block. I’m glad they’re the foundation for us.” The Shamrocks start three seniors who are the unquestioned
leaders in center Meredith Stranges and guards Sarah McQuade and Stacy Axner. However, nearly all the other minutes go to underclassmen. The other two starting spots have been shared by three sophomores in guard Quynh Vo and forwards Bailey Wilson and McKenzie Bailey. Another sophomore, guard Grace Filler, has been a regular substitute, and classmates Rylee Axner, Shelby Saunders and Kaylee Taylor have gotten playing time. Three freshmen also have scored their first varsity points: Samantha Edwards, Amanda Stratton and Griffin Tullis. Edwards, a guard, is getting regular time as a substitute. “We all get along really well and that helps a lot,” Wilson said. “We’re all good friends. The seniors help us, too. They’re good leaders. They make sure we know
our roles.” Wilson was in the starting lineup by the end of last season, averaging four points and two steals. Vo was a regular starter a year ago, averaging five points and 2.5 steals. Wilson and Vo both were averaging 4.8 points, two assists and two steals through 14 games this season. They also are strong defenders, with Wilson’s athleticism and 5-foot-10 frame allowing her to guard players on the perimeter and down low. She routinely draws opponent’s top offensive threats. Bailey has emerged as a major offensive threat in her first full varsity season. She was averaging 12.7 points through 14 games, ranking second on the team behind Stranges (15.3), and was averaging a team-best 8.4 rebounds. Of Bailey’s 118 rebounds, 69
Dublin Jerome High School boys basketball coach Dave Hale had a memorable day on Jan. 21, but it had nothing to do with a basketball game. Hale and his wife, Jamie, welcomed their first child, Emily Grace, at 11:11 p.m. after arriving at Dublin Methodist Hospital at 8 a.m. that day. “We noticed contractions at 5 a.m. and later took off for the hospital,” said Hale, who is in his first season with the Celtics. “The roads were snowy, but I didn’t notice them being too bad. It was a long day, but a great day.” Hale missed the Celtics’69-53 loss to Westerville North in an OCC-Cardinal Division game that night. Varsity assistant Ron Waterwash served as head coach for the game. “We had an idea Emily was coming, but not this soon,” Waterwash said of Hale’s daughter, who weighed 7 pounds, 3 ounces and was 20 inches. “She wasn’t due until (Jan.) 25, so it wasn’t totally unexpected.” Cam Wilson had 16 points against North to lead Jerome. Ben Nesdore and Nick Neale scored nine points apiece and Donovan Wilson scored eight. “We played a very good team in Westerville North, and they had a good night,” Waterwash said. “We tried to slow down (North junior forward Matt) Rhodes (who had 22 points) and then someone else would step up for them. They had a good passing game and every time we made a mistake, they made us pay for it.” Waterwash had not served as a head varsity coach since the 1994-95 season when he was the North Union girls coach, but he also coached the Celtics on Jan. 14 against Westerville Central when Hale missed the game because of illness. The Warhawks rallied for a 6762 victory after Jerome held a 4541 advantage after three quarters. See JEROME, page B3

Bowling
Coffman boys having fun despite losses By AARON BLANKENSHIP ThisWeek Community Newspapers The Dublin Coffman High School club boys bowling team is 0-7 with only one dual match left on its schedule after going 6-3 last season. Yet, coach Greg Snyder said he doesn’t consider this season to be a disappointment. “Our top priority is to have fun, and we’re doing that,” Snyder said. “Secondary is to become better bowlers, and most of our kids have made a lot of progress. This isn’t about just wins and losses. We meet twice a week, and it’s more of a social thing. All of the teams that we bowl against have their own balls and none of our kids have their own balls to compete with them, so our kids just

•The girls team is 1-3 after finishing 0-8 last season. “We have no year-round bowlers,” senior Michelle Salvatore said. “Most of us are good friends and we’re doing it just for fun. I was awful in the beginning, but this has helped me improve a lot. I had some scores in the 60s and 70s in the beginning, but I rolled a career-high 198 last week with my parents, which was exciting.” The Shamrocks beat Hilliard Darby 1,336-1,322 on Jan. 7 for their only victory. Bowling two games against Darby were senior Cassie Lawrence (246), senior Maddie Gravois (243) and Salvatore (212). Senior Kaylaee Niederhelman (103), senior Tiffany Ruz (102), junior Cammy Johnson (101) and sen-
ior Lauren Bond (83) each bowled one game. The boys and girls teams are scheduled to wrap up their seasons against Gahanna on Friday, Jan. 28, at Sawmill Lanes, but Snyder is looking to schedule a few more dual matches. “We’ve had issues with illnesses and scheduling conflicts where our kids have had to miss some time bowling and have come back rusty,” Snyder said. “But our girls also are making progress and getting more consistent with their scoring. Cassie Lawrence is the leading contender to finish as our MVP, and Michelle Salvatore is our most improved bowler.” ablankenship@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

The sharp pain in Casey Nicholson’s ribs had the Dublin Jerome High School wrestler wondering if his season would be in jeopardy — again. The three-time Division I district qualifier has adapted to disappointment. “It was kind of like, ‘Here we go again,’” the senior said. “But I decided to deal with the pain and work through it. It’s better now to the point where I can tolerate it.” Nicholson wasn’t so lucky last season, when a broken collarbone suffered during a skateboarding accident kept him off the mat until late January. He was nowhere near ready to compete for a berth in the state tournament. His sophomore season was delayed several weeks after a vehicle ran over his foot in the parking lot of a convenience store. Nicholson, who competes at 130 and 135 pounds, noted that both injuries happened on Halloween. “One of the things about wrestling is that you have to have a short memory and move on,” coach Adam Huddle said. “Even when you lose a match in a tournament, you’ve got to forget it and come back. It takes a special
Below are the recent results and coming schedules for the Coffman, Jerome and Scioto wrestling teams: COFFMAN Jan. 22 — Finished seventh (126.5) at James V.

Ryan Murdock won a championship at 112. *Jan. 27 — At Hilliard Darby Jan. 29 — Lakota East duals *OCC-Central match JEROME Jan. 22 — Finished fourth (194) at Wapakoneta Invitational behind champion Wapakoneta (263).

Northeastern (131), Carlisle (111.5), Marion Harding (80) and Troy Christian (68.5). Like any senior, Nicholson’s goal is to reach the state tournament at Ohio State in March. “I really relied on my athleticism, especially my freshman year,” Nicholson said. “But I know I’ve gotten better technically and that’s what it’s going to take to beat the guys I’m going to have to beat to get to states.” Huddle has seen a steady progression. “This is the first year we’ve had a full season to prepare,” he said. “We’ve taken him to big tournaments, and we’ve gone out of our way to get Casey to wrestle better opponents. We’ve even gone up in weight classes. We want to make sure he’s both physically and mentally prepared.” The Celtics expect to improve on last season’s 10th-place finish at sectional. Nicholson anticipates company in reaching the state tournament. “I feel like some of the guys who were borderline wrestlers last season have really stepped it up and made a name this season,” he said. “We’ve really been competitive in duals and I think we’re going to see a lot of success in February.”

He won the Wapakoneta Invitational at 130 on Jan. 22 with four technical falls. Teammate Brad Myers (171, 23-4) finished second.

players in the future.” The minutes being played by the young non-starters certainly will help Coffman in coming seasons. Filler was summoned from the bench late in the first quarter of a 64-46 victory over Central Crossing on Jan. 21 after Wilson picked up her second foul. Filler played solid defense and made a baseline jump shot off a pass from McQuade to open the sec-
ond quarter. Though it was her only basket of the game, it aided her confidence. “Playing last year helped me a ton,” Wilson said. “I got experience and got used to what varsity was like. I think playing some this year is going to help a lot of the girls who are coming back next year. It will help us in the future.” www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Jerome’s Garrett Couche (right) defends against Westerville North’s Jack Gibbs on Dec. 7. The Celtics were 4-9 before playing Olentangy Liberty on Jan. 25.
JEROME Waterwash ran practice on Jan. 22 as Hale spent time with his family. Hale was expected to coach the Celtics in their game against Liberty on Jan. 25. “The kids have continued to play hard and they never quit. They haven’t quit all year,” Waterwash said. “I’ve coached teams in the past when the kids would start to pack it in at this point in the season and these kids aren’t even close to doing that. They are working hard to get better, and hopefully we can finish strong and make some noise in the (Division I district) tournament.”
Continued from page B1
Jeremy Grubbs led the Celtics with 14 points, Cam Wilson scored 13 points and Neale scored 10. “It’s been a great honor to try and fill (Hale’s) shoes and try to get the most from his guys,” Waterwash said. “Coach Mo Ross and myself have been putting our heads together to get the most out of the players. They have been playing hard for us.” Jerome entered the week tied for seventh in the OCC-Cardinal with Marysville at 2-6, behind Westerville South at 8-0, Olentangy Liberty at 6-2, Central and North at 5-3 and Scioto at 3-5, and ahead shennen@thisweeknews.com of Olentangy at 1-7. www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Continued from page B1 After opening with an 8-4 loss to Ottawa Hills on Jan. 14, Scioto bounced back the next day to beat Akron Hoban 7-0 and defeat Cincinnati Elder 7-2. But the Irish weren’t able to compete in the final because Elder and Ottawa Hills, both of which also went 2-1 in roundrobin play, won the first tiebreaker with most penalty shots scored. After each of round-robin game, three players from each team took penalty shots against the opposing goaltender, and Scioto didn’t score any goals in its nine penalty shots. The Irish, who went 4-0 to win the event last season, went on to beat Hoban 5-4 in the consolation final to finish third. Elder beat Ottawa Hills 4-1 in the final. “It was disappointing in a sense that we didn’t win the championship, because we believe that we were the best team there and we would have been in the final again if not for a technicality,” Ellis said. “But that doesn’t overshadow the way we played, and I think we proved we were the best team there by winning our final three games.
Below are the recent results and coming schedule for the Coffman, Jerome and Scioto hockey teams: COFFMAN *Jan. 21 — Defeated Olentangy 7-4 *Jan. 22 — Def. Thomas Worthington 5-1 *Jan. 23 — Def.

“All of our guys are buying into our system now, and they’re willing to work every shift, from our first line through our fourth line.” Scioto continued to play well last weekend, as it defeated Watterson 7-0 on Jan. 21 and pushed Kettering Alter the next day before losing 6-5. Against Watterson, Vallette had three goals and two assists, Sean Isernhagen had two goals and an assist, Tate Bowen had a goal and an assist, and Beatty had 10 saves to earn his second shutout of the season, as the Irish won a Capital Hockey Conference game for the first time this season in seven attempts.

standings will compete in the Blue Jackets Cup on Feb. 1013 at the Dispatch Ice Haus. The other six teams will compete in a consolation tournament those same dates at the Ice Haus and Chiller North. “We’re near the bottom of the league standings, so our goal for the rest of the season is to win enough games to finish above the bottom-two positions, to set ourselves up for our league’s consolation tournament,” Ellis said. “I believe we can be very competitive in the second-tier league tournament if we play as well as we did (during our four-game winning streak).” ablankenship@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Sophomore Tanner Barton set the program record in the 500 freestyle (5:10.01) on Dec. 3 against Westerville North at the Westerville Recreation Center, and freshman Morgan Quesnel broke her own program record in the 100 butterfly (59.31) in the Ned Reeb Invitational on Dec. 11 at Ohio State. “I knew we had a fast girl coming in. I didn’t know we had that fast of a girl coming in,” Prose said of Quesnel. “To break a school record as a freshman in the first meet is pretty sweet.” •Scioto will join Jerome at the OCC-Cardinal meet.

We’ll have some personal bests, but we’re not looking to take down one of the other teams.” Leading the way for the boys should be senior Sean Earley. Cahill also pointed to the contri-

Sinus infections can be frequent Frequent sinus infections in children are a common problem, especially for children in daycare settings. The average child can have six to ten upper respiratory tract infections a year that have symptoms including nasal discharge and blockage. Other factors that contribute to frequent sinus infections are environmental allergies, exposure to second-hand smoke, immunodeficiency, congenital craniofacial anomalies and some inherited conditions. Children with lung problems such as asthma and cystic fibrosis often have related sinus problems. Most viral infections will resolve without treatment. A small percentage will progress to bacterial sinusitis that will require antibiotics for treatment. Narrowing or blockage of the nasal passages or sinus openings may increase the chances that a cold will progress to bacterial sinusitis. Often, children may need medication to help treat sinus problems. This could include nasal steroids, nasal saline, mucousthinning medications called mucolytics, and some allergy med-
ications such as anti-histamines. In a small percentage of children, surgery may be necessary to CHARLES relieve the ELMARAGHY blockage and open the sinuses or nasal passages. Prior to any surgery, a thorough workup is necessary in order to determine the appropriate treatment course. Younger children do not typically need surgery on the sinuses as their sinuses are still developing. Younger children with frequent sinus infections often have their adenoid, a patch of tissue located where the nose and throat join, removed. The adenoid can be a haven for bacteria and can often block the nasal passages. Removing the adenoid is a simple and painless surgery that can be very effective. When the sinus problem is more involved than an enlarged adenoid, the sinuses need to be imaged via a special X-ray called a CT scan to investigate the
anatomy of the sinuses and determine if the openings of the sinuses are blocked. If sinus openings are blocked, they can be enlarged using special instruments and a small camera called an endoscope. This is called endoscopic sinus surgery. The natural openings are widened and preservation of normal anatomy is the goal. Nationwide Children’s Hospital’s Rhinology Clinic is unique in that it offers allergy testing and endoscopic evaluation during the same visit. This allows both the allergist and otolaryngologist to determine an appropriate treatment plan. You should always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health care provider prior to starting or stopping any treatment or with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition. Dr. Charles Elmaraghy is a member of the Department of Otolaryngology at Nationwide Children’s Hospital and an assistant professor of clinical otolaryngology at the Ohio State University College of Medicine.
