Westerville Square
Hadler presents ‘new and improved’ plans By JENNIFER NESBITT ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The Westerville Planning Commission heard a heavily revised redevelopment plan for the Westerville Square shopping center on Jan. 26. Redevelopment plans for the center call for knocking down three currently vacant storefronts to make way for a 108,441square-foot Walmart. The rest of the center would be renovated to match the new storefront. The Hadler Cos. president, George Hadler, said his team listened to concerns brought forth by commission members in December — including that the proposal lacked four-sided architecture, a cohesive design, a landscape plan and adequate screening for a development to the north, and that site plans did resolve existing traffic issues — and modified the plan based on that feedback. “We listened very carefully,” Hadler told the commission. “I’m very proud of the team that we have assembled, the meetings we’ve had, the planning, the revisions.” With the new plans, the renovated center would have a red brick façade on all four sides, with footers added to brick columns and parapets added at the corners of the center. The rear of the center would have brick screening walls to shield utility elements, trash receptacles and loading bays.

Commission: Walmart plans ‘not quite there’ By JENNIFER NESBITT

Revised plans for renovations to the Westerville Square shopping center received a warmer reception from the Westerville Planning Commission than the previously proposed site plans. Shopping center owner The Hadler Cos. appeared before the planning commission for a third time Jan. 26 with a revised proposal for Westerville Square, which calls for tearing down three existing storefronts to make way for a 108,000-square-foot Walmart and renovating the remaining storefronts to match the new construction. “We’re not quite there, but we’re getting close,” planning commission chairman Gerald Domanik said of the revised

plans. Other planning commission members said the new site plans marked a significant improvement over what The Hadler Cos. brought before the commission in October and December.
Concerns remained, however, over how well the newly constructed Walmart will tie in to the old shopping center. A Hadler-hired architect has designed the renovations to older storefronts, while a Walmart-hired architect has designed the new storefront. The two have collaborated on building materials, but planning commission members said there is still a disconnect between the old and the new. “If I showed this to 100 people that weren’t architects, 100 of them could point out the boundaries of (Walmart),” planning commission member Brian Szuch said of architectural renderings of the front of the center. Szuch said that while the architecture was a vast improvement over what originally was submitted to the city, the mod-
ern architecture for Walmart clashed with traditional architecture being used for the rest of the center. “It’s still just loads different, architecturally,” he said. The plans do not address the shopping center’s outparcels along Schrock Road, which Hadler Cos. president George Hadler said cannot be renovated at this time because of existing leases with the business owners who occupy those parcels. Commission members said they would like to see some sort of plan for those outparcels to see how they would tie in with the rest of the center and how redeveloped parcels might better comply with city design standards.

Diane Conley has retired as Westerville City Schools’ chief of academic affairs.
Conley retires as district’s director of academic affairs By JENNIFER NESBITT ThisWeek Community Newspapers
As executive director of academic affairs Diane Conley retires after 18 years with the Westerville City School District, officials say her smile, optimism and can-do attitude will be greatly missed. Conley’s last day on the job was Jan. 28. “Diane is the consummate optimist,” Superintendent Dan Good said. “When trailblazing is required, Diane isn’t daunted by the challenges that inevitably accompany being the leader. She cheerfully forges ahead, with a healthy cohort of collaborators, who together inspire a new stan-
dard of performance.” When the Westerville Board of Education thanked Conley for her service during its Jan. 24 meeting, board president Kristi Robbins choked up as she prepared to present Conley with a resolution from the board. “We knew this day was coming,” Robbins said. “It’s a hard one for us.” Conley began her career in education as a teacher in the Reynoldsburg school district. In her 17 years in that district, she taught all levels of elementary school. After getting her degree in education adminSee CONLEY RETIRING, page A5
Members of the Westerville community have put together a throwback variety show to raise money to send World War II veterans to Washington, D.C. Volunteers are planning a second annual concert, the “Jukebox Revue” to raise money for a Westerville-sponsored Honor Flight, a tour of Washington, D.C., memorials for World War II veterans. Last year, with the help of a holiday concert fundraiser, the community raised $40,000 to send more than 80 veterans to Washington. The community also sponsored an Honor Flight in 2009. Last year’s holiday concert fundraiser has been reworked into the Jukebox Revue, which will be at 2 p.m. Feb. 13 at Westerville Central High School, 7118 Mount Royal Ave.
The show will be emceed by local TV anchor Cabot Rea and will feature musicians, singers and dancers, including 7-year-old piano prodigy Gavin George, awardwinning accordionist Joe Napoli and swing band The Continentals. “It’s in the vein of an old ‘Bob Hope Show’ or ‘Ed Sullivan Show,’” said show organizer David Colley. “I think it’s going to be a blast. I think it’s going to be a lot

The Westerville Planning Commission will allow a church to move into a planned industrial district, but the proposal left commission members questioning city code. The planning commission approved a conditional use permit Jan. 26 to allow Cornerstone Baptist Church to use 4,800 square feet within a building
See FUNDS, page A2
at 695 Greencrest Drive, in the Brooksedge development. While a church is an acceptable conditional use for a planned industrial district under city code, planning commission members wondered whether that should be the case. Using intended industrial space for nonindustrial uses reduces the amount of space that could be used by businesses bringing jobs and See CHURCH PLANS, page A2

of fun.” With more acts and a faster pace, Colley said he expects the show to appeal to more people, and with the entertainers who are booked, he said he’s sure the audience will leave impressed with the concert — just like they did last year. “Last year’s program was killer. We just had so many people who just absolutely loved the show,” Colley said. “I think everyone’s going to get their money’s worth. I think it’s going to be another year where people walk out and say, ‘Wow, I really loved it.’” Colley said he’s expecting many of the veterans who already have participated in the Honor Flight program to come to the concert, and he said he expects to take a moment during the show to celebrate those veterans and the success of the two previous Westerville-sponsored Honor Flights.

CHURCH PLANS Continued from page A1 revenue to the city, they said. The Brooksedge development currently has a 90-percent occupancy rate, said Westerville city planner Jeff Buehler. “We do have a high occupancy of businesses in this area. These areas are in demand,” planning commission member Diane Fosselman said. “That’s why I have a great difficulty putting this use here.” Commissioner Brian Szuch said conditional use permits like the one requested by the church tend to be difficult because they put tenants in buildings that weren’t intended for their purposes. “My concern is always obvious: safety,” Szuch said. “You’re going into a building that wasn’t designed for your use.” The commission ultimately decided to approve the application, as the church has a 5-acre site in New Albany it plans to build on, and plans to locate at the Westerville site only temporarily, pastor Sean Ingram said. The church has taken out a two-
FUNDS
year lease in the Brooksedge building, he said. After making the decision, the commission asked city staff to look into the conditional-use code for planned industrial districts and possibly recommend changes to that code. Also during the Jan. 26 meeting, the commission approved code requirements to regulate temporary seasonal vendors, such as Christmas tree lots, pumpkin sales and farmers markets. The code sets forth a permit process for those uses and establishes how long they can be set up and how long they have to clean up after they are removed. The code originally also attempted to set regulations for transient vendors, such as food trucks, but the city staff decided to hold off on presenting those changes while the law department considers a separate permitting process for those vendors, Westerville city planner Lisa LaMantia said. “We were having issues getting our arms around how we set standards for transient vendors,” LaMantia said.
Continued from page A1 Last year’s concert drew in 700 people, he said, and organizers are hoping to repeat that success this year. “We just need to fill the seats because filling the seats is how we help out Honor Flight,” he said. Colley said organizers are encouraging those interested in attending the show to buy their tickets early because Westerville Central’s auditorium only will accommodate around 750 people. Tickets for the Jukebox Revue are available on the second floor of Westerville City Hall, 21 S. State St., or by calling (614) 839-0189. Tickets cost $20 for adults and $10 for seniors, children or veterans. Admission is free for World War II veterans.

and the Duke & Duchess station at 9:05 p.m. Jan. 4. Police said they received several anonymous tips about the robberies that led to Fenneman’s arrest. Both Westerville police and Central Ohio Crime Stoppers publicized the robberies last week and solicited tips from the public. Fenneman is being detained in the Franklin County Jail while he awaits arraignment, police said. — Jennifer Nesbitt

Cutting teacher salaries should not be the answer To the editor: Many letters have been printed that complain about the Westerville City School Board decisions, teachers’ salaries and the superintendent’s salary. Recently, Mary Medors asked taxpayers to tell the BOE to “step up to the plate” and impose a 2percent across-the-board reduction in all salaries paid to district employees. It would be wrong to make district employees take such a reduction. We have paid our taxes for Westerville schools for 23 years. So far, only one of our three children is enrolled in the school system. This is her second year. She will graduate this May from Westerville Central. Working with the administrators (DACC and Westerville Central), teachers, counselors (both schools), and transportation was all new to us two years ago. And I have only observed excellence in working with all. Our daughter’s teachers at DACC (she has had at least seven) required excellence from her and gave her the support she needed to succeed. They work long, hard hours. Their job is not easy. Try working with 25 teenagers per class to motivate, teach, maintain order, intervene and try to stop drama — just to name a few of their duties. I cannot help wondering what more could be expected of our teachers. Our administrators are making
important decisions every day; decisions regarding the safety, the education and the well-being of our children. I view their job as critical to the success of the schools and our children. They deserve to be compensated well. Last school year, I sat in on three classes at Westerville Central and was amazed at the enthusiasm, the drive and the performance of the three teachers. So when I read letters of complaint that salaries are too high, I get perplexed. I think just the opposite: They are not paid enough. Join the Academic Boosters and help. I joined, and once again, I saw only excellence. Mr. Carr, vice principal, attends every meeting — after a long, busy day, no doubt. Mr. Spinner, principal, even attends occasionally. Both men have impressed me in just the short exposures I have had to them. They are personable, driven and care very much about the students. That matters to me as a parent more than my words can communicate. This letter does not do enough justice in expressing my gratitude to those whom I have encountered at Westerville Central, the Delaware Area Career Center and transportation. By the way, I am grateful for the recent contract agreement with the bus drivers. I want happy, qualified bus drivers because I am entrusting them with our daughter

Police program was valuable experience To the editor: Westerville is a great place to live, work and do business. Several of us have heard that on various occasions over the years. As a 50-year resident of Westerville, my belief is we are a blessed community and I am fortunate to have had my father choose to move to Westerville and settle here. Otterbein brought him to Westerville and his love for Westerville kept him here. Last week, I participated in the Police Chief for a Day Program. What a learning experience. Not only did I learn to shoot a gun and find out how to turn on the police car siren, I learned how professionally run the organization is, how the department works daily to extend its services in every aspect of our community, and understand why there is such a dedicated and engaged volunteer base assisting the officers with services they provide. There are over 250 graduates of the Citizen Police Academy and close to 135 members of the Westerville Citizen Police Academy Alumni Association — talk about an engaged and motivated group of citizens! They get things done and what a savings that brings to the department and our city. We are recognized as having one of the top police departments in the country and just spending six hours with the police chief and various officers, it is obvious this is recognition that is well-deserved. A special thanks to Carrie Ryan, officers Jeff Jeffries, Kurt “Flo” Nightingale and Randy Bailey and Chief Morbitzer. Thank you for the experience.

Conley retiring after 18 years with school district Continued from page A1 istration, she took a one-year post in Upper Arlington, where she said she found a job she felt would help her make the transition from teacher to administrator. She then moved to Westerville to serve as assistant principal at Huber Ridge Elementary School, and after a year there, stepped up to serve as principal of McVay Elementary. From there, she moved to the district’s central office, where she has headed curriculum development for the past 12 years. Conley said she’s loved every position she’s held, mostly due to the people she’s worked with over the years. “I’m one of those people who, everywhere I go, I think I have the best job,” Conley said. “Right from the students to the staff to the parents, really getting to know the people in those positions has really enriched my life.” After the 18 years she’s served in Westerville, Conley has accomplishments that are too numerous to name, Good said. “A comprehensive list of the biggest programmatic contributions Diane has made would be too extensive to list,” he said. “How she has been able to do that are the two biggest contributions she freely and repeatedly gave to Westerville City Schools — her unparalleled integration of productive efficacy and capacity. She believes anyone can reach our goals and equips them with the tools and training to do it.” Conley said one thing she marks among her achievements is helping to transform the district’s reading program. “All of our elementary teachers are really experts in reading now,” Conley said. “We get the kids to be really excellent readers in elementary, and then the whole world opens up to them.” Conley said another important change she’s worked on has been to bring educational development to the district by using Westerville staff members as inhouse experts, rather than send-
ing people away to conferences to learn new techniques only to return to the district to enact changes without the support of their colleagues. “It’s our experts in our district teaching our experts in our district,” she said. “You’re learning something new every day and you
have that support there every day.” She said she’s also proud of the way district administrators have learned to work together as colleagues who support one another. “I’m so proud to see how our leadership team has come together, all of the administrative
team, not just the central office team,” Conley said. “That wasn’t the way when I first came to the district. … We’re looking at each other as people and then as positions. I think that makes a big difference.” Now that she’s retired, Conley said she plans to do some travel-
ing and spend time with her family. Eventually, she said, she would like to do some college-level teaching, but she’s first taking some time to enjoy being retired. She said she also plans to do some more volunteering with the Westerville Sunrise Rotary. “I joined the Rotary knowing
they do a lot of things for kids and a lot of things for the school district,” Conley said. “I want to give back. The community here has just embraced me, and I want to give back to the community.” jnesbitt@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNEWS.com

HADLER NOT QUITE THERE Continued from page A1
Continued from page A1 so building materials would be consistent and so the designs would flow together. Landscape islands and end caps were added to the parking lot, along with a landscaped, park-like greenspace along South State Street. The new plan also shows an existing greenspace at the northwest corner being retained, rather than turned into more parking as in the previous presentation. A low brick wall with landscaping was added to the eastern edge of the parking lot to help separate it from Otterbein Avenue, and a 6-foot wooden fence was added to the northern border to help shield the retirement community to the north from the shopping center. To aid with traffic issues, parking bays would be eliminated and landscape islands would be used to create an east-west traffic lane between the shopping center’s parking lot and the businesses that front Schrock Road. The plan also shows that a median would be added to the westernmost curb cut on Schrock Road to make that a right-in, right-out entrance and exit. Hadler pledged $75,000 to create a public art element within the shopping center. He said he would work with the community and city officials to determine what type of art would be installed. He also said he would be willing to provide the city with an easement on the northern edge of the property if they would like to use that area to help solve traffic problems in the area of South State Street and Schrock Road. jnesbitt@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNEWS.com

“I would like to know how and when these properties can be improved,” commission member Diane Fosselman said. Szuch said seeing some future plans for the outparcels would help the planning commission ensure that once work is entirely completed, the shopping center will have a consistent look throughout. “Whatever we put here, it’s staying for a long time,” he said. “We want this to look consistent, like it was all designed at the same time.” Another major concern that remained for commission members is how increasing the density of retail on the site will affect traffic flow in the area of South State Street and Schrock Road. Traffic studies done by The Hadler Cos. and by a firm hired by the city show that the development would drop the efficiency of the intersection from its existing “E” rating to an “F” rating. Fosselman said the plan shows some traffic improvements, such as the establishment of an eastwest traffic lane, but the plans also show that all eight existing curb cuts from the center would remain open. “I think that’s excessive. It impairs the traffic flow on State Street, Schrock Road and Otterbein Avenue,” she said. Representatives from The Hadler Cos. said they would work
to address the remaining concerns and asked to be placed on the agenda for the commission’s next meeting on Feb. 23. Hadler said he would like to see the commission make a decision soon. If the decision is delayed too long, he said he worries that Walmart could walk away from the deal, which he said his company has been working on for five years. “I don’t want to walk away from all of this,” he said. Ultimately, the planning commission must decide whether the proposed renovations should qualify as “major” or “minor” changes to the site’s use. If they are deemed “minor,” the planning commission retains the power to make a decision on whether to approve the site plans. If members vote to consider the changes “major,” something Hadler has said he doesn’t think is warranted, the decision on whether to approve the renovations would be passed to Westerville City Council with a recommendation for approval or disapproval from the planning commission. Planning commission member David Berger said he doesn’t know how the proposed renovations can be considered anything but a major modification. “You’re reconstructing more than 50 percent of the building. That’s major,” Berger said. jnesbitt@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNEWS.com

Police contract talks stalled in Genoa Township ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Negotiations between Genoa Township and its police union have stalled for a second time since they began last summer. At a special meeting Jan. 26, Genoa Township trustees unanimously rejected a fact-finder’s report for the police union contract which expired Dec. 31. The township declined to comment on the negotiations, but the fact finder’s report shows the “parties disagreed on the issues of wages and insurance.” The township and union agree on the other points of the contract, the report says. In November the State Employment Relations Board (SERB) appointed fact finder Joseph Gardner. On Jan. 7, Gardner met with both parties, who presented their stands on the two points of disagreement. His Jan. 20 report gives recommendations for each contested point. Regarding wages, the report says the union is arguing for a 3percent increase for each year of the two-year contract. Since 2005, the officers’ increases have averaged 4.3 percent, the report says, The township wants wage increases of 1 percent for the first year of the contract and 1.5 percent for the second. “SERB data shows the average increases for all Ohio township police departments in 2011 ... is 2.7 percent,” the report says. However, the union compared pay for the township officers to that of neighboring police forces and said that “Genoa Township officers earn approximately 88.5 percent of the average pay of neighboring police units.” The township said that for 2006-09, “The wage increases . . . have exceeded the average percent increases statewide,” the report shows. The union also wanted to see the percentage of pay differential between ranks increased to 10 percent from its current 8 percent. The township did not want to see that changed. The township argued it could
see a loss of tax revenue if property values decrease by the projected 5 percent to 10 percent, as Delaware County auditor George Kaitsa has said. It also argued that “voters are looking very carefully at any government activity which would raise taxes,” the report said. The union said the township needs to collect revenue for the position of an officer working at the school. It also said that the police might be funded by the
“
general fund, not just by the police levy that “passed by a large margin.” The 3.8-mill five-year police levy passed by a vote of 2,888 to 1,729 in May 2010. Gardner recommended “a 2percent wage increase in 2011 and a 2-percent wage increase in 2012,” the report said. The township wants the police employees to contribute to their health insurance deductible. The township currently pays the full amount.
The township wants the employee to pay $200 for single coverage and $400 for family coverage in 2011, $300 for single coverage and $600 for family coverage in 2012, $400 for single coverage and $800 for family coverage in 2013, the report says. The township currently pays $1,200 for the single coverage and the $2,400 for family coverage. The township incurred a 27percent insurance renewal in-
Running is one of the best R exercises for the physical conditioning of the heart. t.
crease in 2010, the report said. The township said if the employees contribute to the deductible,t they would be more “consumer-minded about their health spending.” The union wants to continue with the township paying the full deductible, and Gardner agreed, the report said. Gardner also said the township should develop a labor-management insurance committee that could help with shopping for bet-
ter insurance rates, educating the members about rising health care costs and reporting on what insurance uses could be driving up health care costs. The stall negotiation process will return to SERB. The township is negotiating separately with both the police and fire bargaining units. Both contracts expired Dec. 31. bbutcher@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNEWS.com

8-year-old’s photography attracts glances By JENNIFER NESBITT ThisWeek Community Newspapers
A year after he debuted his work in an elementary-school art contest, an 8-year-old Westerville photographer is going pro. Landon Bailey, a second-grader at Wilder Elementary School, began taking pictures last year to be entered in the school’s PTA Reflections contest. A second-place finish in his school, a first-place finish in the district and a thirdplace finish at the state level spurred Landon to take more pictures. “He enjoyed all the attention,” said his mom, Marsha Bailey. “He just kind of took more and more pictures, and as he took more and more pictures, we just realized, ‘Wow, these are looking good.’” This summer, Landon and his mom talked to Gallery 202 owner Renee Kropat, who also was taken with Landon’s work. “This young photographer has gotten up close, or he takes thing from really close up or different angles,” Kropat said. “Obviously, he’s at a height where he sees the world differently.” Kropat has worked with Landon to create a showing of his work, which opened at the Uptown gallery last week. Marsha Bailey said her son is extremely shy, but is excited by the attention surrounding his show. “He’s very shy and very reserved,” she said. “He says he’s excited.” Landon has started taking a camera with him everywhere he

goes, and the pair enjoy walking through local parks to find photo ops, because Landon particularly enjoys taking nature photographs. “He just carries the camera with him, and something will hit him,” Bailey said. Bailey said Landon will insist on going out when the lighting is right to take a photograph he has in mind. She said he’s learned a lot about lighting and how to set up a good photograph through his own experience. “He’s really starting to understand the whole process of what makes a good picture,” Bailey said. “He knows when the sky’s pink, or that 5:18 is the best time to get a sunset.” Landon won’t Photoshop anything, Bailey said, because he believes a picture should reflect what really was.
“If he wants a storm cloud, we go out after the storm and we take a picture of a cloud,” Bailey said. “He goes, ‘If you can’t get a real picture, forget it.’He’s pretty stubborn.” Bailey said no one else in the family has the passion for pho- ily photos. els,” she said. his talent has grown as others take tography that Landon has learned, “We don’t even have a top-ofBailey said in the last year, Lan- interest in his work. but she said she has always car- the line camera.

a school in Pickerington two years ago. Ashley Clemens oversaw the day-to-day operations of the school there and saw how well the couple’s two small children did as students. She said she and her husband immediately started to look at opening a second location, which will be the school at Polaris. “We knew after that first year at our school in Pickerington that that was something we wanted,” she said. “We were able to become much more engaged with the schools because our own children were able to attend our schools in Pickerington.” She said she believes the Primrose schools are particularly effective because they teach an accredited curriculum and because they divide children into more focused age groups than many other preschool systems. “After the child is about a year of age, they’ll move into a new

From its bricks and mortar to its daily operations, a new Westerville preschool is truly a family operation. Luke and Ashley Clemens, of New Albany, will open Primrose School at Polaris Feb. 7 at 561 Westar Blvd. Luke Clemens, who has a background in construction, helped to build the school. Ashley Clemens will run the day-to-day operations, and Luke will deal with much of the school’s behind-the-scenes bookkeeping. Ashley Clemens said she and her husband fell in love with the Primrose schools after seeing their nephews’ experiences with the school in Dayton, where the couple is originally from. When they realized there were franchising opportunities in the Columbus area, they chose to move to central Ohio and opened
classroom every six months,” she said. “You’re not trying to teach to children who are 18 months to 3-year-olds. That’s a big span.” The couple never anticipated opening their own schools, she said, but with a background in education, she said she thinks the business is a perfect fit for her. “I never expected this,” she said. “I absolutely love what I do. It entails everything that I would want in a position.” The school will serve children ages 6 weeks through 12 years, with preschool and after-school programs and summer camps. The Clemenses anticipate bringing 25 to 30 new jobs to Westerville totaling between $2.9-million and $4.1-million. Ashley Clemens said all teachers will be CPR-certified, and many have degrees in early childhood education or are working to earn degrees in that field. Those who don’t, have extensive experience in child care, she said.

“He loves it,” Bailey said. “It really just started with taking that picture for that Reflections contest. … Now, he wants to be a photographer, and a monster truck driver on the weekends.” Landon also entered a photograph in this year’s PTA Reflections contest, which earned first place in his school and second in district, and now is off to the state competition. Landon’s work will be on display at Gallery 202, 38 N. State St., through Feb. 25, with an artist’s reception at 2 p.m. Feb. 20. The works being shown are for sale, Kropat said. Though the show has just started, Kropat said people already are noticing Landon’s talent. “People recognize his ability already at the ripe old age of 8,” she said. jnesbitt @thisweeknews.com

Central’s Sally Thompson won the 50-yard freestyle and 100 freestyle at the OCC-Cardinal meet Jan. 29 in Marysville.

South building from dual victories
The Westerville Central High School boys and girls swimming and diving teams came home from the OCC-Cardinal Division meet that concluded Jan. 29 at the Union County YMCA with an envelope full of medals. The Warhawks, however, have their sights set on a bigger prize — the postseason. The girls team scored 274 points to win the OCC-Cardinal championship. Olentangy Liberty (268) was second, followed by Dublin Jerome (223), Marysville (136.5), Olentangy (132), Westerville South (126), Westerville North (75.5) and Dublin Scioto (66). The Warhawks boys team placed fourth (177), behind Liberty (233), Olentangy (195) and Scioto (182), and ahead of Jerome (173), South (120), Marysville (116) and North (88).
“The OCC meet is one of those events that we like to win, but the real prize is getting swimmers and divers to advance to the state meet,” coach Ron Staab said. “We went into it thinking, ‘If we win it, great, but it’s not the prize we are looking for.’” In the girls meet, the Warhawks placed first in the 200-yard freestyle relay (1 minute, 42.35 seconds) and 400 free relay (3:47.17) and were second in the 200 medley relay (1:55.03). Sally Thompson won the 50 free (25.63) and 100 free (54.72), and Chelsea Staab was first in the 500 free (5:18.12). Also placing in the top five were Staab in the 200 free (third, 2:03.12), Taylor Schwartz in the 100 backstroke (second, 1:02.84) and 200 free (second, 2:00.83), Alex Schuttinger in the 200 individual medley (second, 2:15.36) and 100 breaststroke (third, 1:10.49), Marissa Kramer in the 100
fly (fourth, 1:03.25), Alanna Paynter in the 200 free (fourth, 2:04.84) and Holly Loushin in the 100 free (fifth, 58.36). The boys team finished first in the 200 medley relay (1:45.55). Other top finishers were Dan Fay in the 100 back (second, 57.44) and 100 fly (third, 55.98), Atticus Jordan in the 100 fly (fourth, 56.36) and 500 free (fourth, 5:10.12), Mason Harris in the 500 free (fifth, 5:14.11) and the 200 free relay (third, 1:35.4). •North coach Jeff Riegler estimated that somewhere between one-fourth and onethird of his swimmers were battling some sort of illness and, as a result, many of those swimmers were held out of the OCC-Cardinal meet. Erick Bey was the top finisher for the boys team, placing fifth in the 50 free (23.67) See SWIM, page B2

Westerville South High School wrestling coach Tim Michel believes his team is building momentum as it prepares for the postseason. The Wildcats defeated Westerville Central 35-28 in an OCCCardinal Division match Jan. 27 and finished 3-0 at their inaugural Wildcat Duals on Jan. 29, beating Mifflin 60-12, Liberty Union 55-19 and Westland 4029.

It then competes in the All-North Tournament on Saturday, Feb. 5, at Dublin Jerome before concluding the regular season on Feb. 10 with a league match at home against Jerome. The Wildcats then will compete in the Division I sectional meet Feb. 19 at Marysville. Among the 13 teams that will be competing at the site are Hilliard Davidson, which was ranked second in the area coachBy Lorrie Cecil/ThisWeek es poll last week, and Hilliard Darby and Marysville, which Taivion Thomas of North blocks the shot of Central’s Nick Vannett during the host Warriors’ 77-70 victory on Jan. 25.

BOWLING Through 11 matches, senior Taylor Pannell was fourth in the area with a 184 average. Juniors Jessica Shambaugh and Kate Reid were second and third on the team, respectively, with 171 and 166 averages. “This is probably one of the best girls teams I’ve had in quite awhile, because up until this year we’ve always had a really good bowler on the team,” West said. “This year, it’s a lot of people stepping up at different times.” •The Central girls team is closing in on the COHSBC-North title, as it was 8-0 in the conference before competing against Jonathan Alder on Jan. 31. Through nine matches, junior Mary Wells was leading the area with a 235 average, followed by seniors Melissa Klodnick (191) and Paige Trein (186). Senior Carrie Russell was fifth in the area with a 182 average. “That’s great,” coach Julie Wells said of her top bowlers. “That means all their hard work is paying off.” Through 11 matches, senior Jamie Robinson was fourth in the area with a 217 average. Junior Shaun Ritter had the team’s second-best average with a 196, followed by junior Justin Kennell (189). “The boys are getting better at every practice and at every match,” coach Wells said.

“I’m pretty happy,” she said. “Things are going pretty well this year. We’ve improved a lot. Everyone is basically a new bowler, but they’ve definitely improved.” Sophomore Megan Patterson was second on the team with a 136 average, followed by senior Stephanie Gaskalla (135). “I started with six rookies that had never bowled before, so I’m pretty proud of how well they’re coming up,” girls coach Marcia McKinley said. •The South boys team leads the race for the COHSBC-North championship, as it is 12-0 overall and 10-0 in the league entering its match against Jonathan Alder on Thursday, Feb. 3, at Plain City Lanes. Through 12 matches, sophomore Zach Pannell was seventh in the area with a 208 average and junior Tyler Chaney was ninth (207). Senior Aaron Sands was third on the team with a 190 average. “We want everybody to grow and get better as bowlers, but we’d like to win the conference and we’d like to win the sectionals,” coach Jamie West said. At 8-1 in the COHSBC-North, the South girls team remains in contention for the conference title. Its lone setback — both overall and in the conference — was a 2,380-2,080 loss to Central on Jan. 25. www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com
Continued from page B1 (sixth) and Dustin Carson at 152 (sixth). “Our team has been a better tournament team than a dualmeet team this year,” coach Bob Fresch said. The Warhawks will compete in the 13-team Westland sectional Feb. 19. Among the other teams at the site will be North, which was fourth in the area coaches poll last week, and Lancaster, which was tied for fifth. “Our draw is great,” Fresch said. “It’s gives the kids the mentality of getting ready for the district and state tournament. That’s what we’ve done all season with the competition, going to the (Alliance) Top Gun and Napoleon, so everything is working out pretty good.” A possible matchup at sectional could pit Brown, who was ranked second in the coaches poll at 160, against Central Crossing’s Vince Pickett, who

For the girls team, Rachel Jackson placed third in the 100 fly (1:02.09) and fifth in the 100 back (1:04.48), and the 400 free relay placed fourth (4:08.93). “This is as sick as we’ve been as a team (in my 11-year tenure),” Riegler said. “Some of our kids are just swimming through that and you can see that in their performances. We keep telling the kids, ‘It’s better to have this happen now than in two weeks at the sectional meet.’” •South coach Kevin Kissling said some of his swimmers were disappointed with their finishes at the OCC-Cardinal meet, but he believes the team is right on track for the postseason. On the boys side, Jared Higdon won the 100 back (56.19) and placed second in the 200 individual medley (2:03.7), and Gabe Gaudin-Perry was the runner-up in diving (286.15 points). The Wildcats placed fifth in the 200 free relay (1:38.27) and 400 free relay (3:37.66). Riley Buer had the only firstplace finish for the girls team, winning the 100 breast (1:08.6). Also placing in the top five were Lizzie Gauen in the 50 free (second, 26.13), Trisha Tee in the 100 fly (fifth, 1:03.49), the 400 free relay (second, 3:50.41), the 200 free relay (third, 1:44.62) and the 200 medley relay (fourth, 1:57.48). “Actually, things went pretty well,” Kissling said. “The kids swam near the best times.

me, and helped me along with this process, so has my father (Guy Fisher),” Fisher said. “We’ve been going back and forth, emailing coaches and everything.” Fisher rushed for a team-high 537 yards and three touchdowns on 96 carries and was named second-team all-OCC. He said the Air Force coaches have told him he will play strong safety. The Warhawks finished 2-8 overall and 2-5 in the OCC-Cardinal Division last season.

The DeSales High School boys basketball team is experiencing some growing pains. Winners of five consecutive CCL championships and four Division II district titles the past five seasons, the Stallions haven’t been nearly as dominant as they have been in recent years. In particular, they are struggling to be consistent offensively. “We’re 13 games into the season right now and it’s now or never for some of these guys,” coach Blair Albright said after the Stallions lost to Beechcroft 50-44 on Jan. 26 to end a fivegame winning streak. “I’d like to see some things that make me think it’s going to change. We (had) won five games in a row and we’ve been getting away with some things. We’ve had tonight coming for a while.” The Stallions, who rebounded with a 41-31 win over Worthington Christian two days later, couldn’t take control against Beechcroft despite holding the Cougars scoreless for half of the third quarter. DeSales struggled offensively during that stretch as well and was outscored 114 in the quarter. At one point in the second half against Beechcroft, Albright called a timeout and tried to get his team refocused. After the game, he said he’d like to see a few players take more ownership. “It can’t always be the coach’s voice,” Albright said. “It has to be somebody else and we’re not getting there.” Albright said his team came out sluggish in a 53-38 win over Urbana on Jan. 22. The Stallions led 24-17 at halftime and their low offensive output seemed to have carried over from the day before when they beat Watterson 36-32. That game marked DeSales’lowest point total in a win. Its previous low came in a 38-37 win over St. Charles in 1985. •Cooper Staton of the boys swimming and diving team set two meet records in winning the 50-yard freestyle (21.29 seconds) and 100 free (47.78) at the CCL meet that concluded Jan. 29 at St. Charles. The Stallions scored 240 points in the league meet to place second behind St. Charles (456) and ahead of Watterson (171) and Hartley (145).
Below are the recent results and coming schedules for the DeSales boys basketball, girls basketball, gymnastics, hockey, swimming and wrestling teams: BOYS BASKETBALL Jan. 26 — Lost to Beechcroft 50-44. Kenny Cooper scored 15 points and Sam Borghese and Thomas Nolan scored nine apiece. Jan. 28 — Defeated Worthington Christian 43-31. Sam Borghese scored 12 points and Marcus Harris scored 10. *Feb. 1 — Played Ready Feb. 4 — At Hartley. The Stallions lost 51-40 on Jan. 7, snapping their 50game home winning streak. Of note: The Stallions were 10-4 overall and 3-1 in the CCL before Feb. 1. GIRLS BASKETBALL Jan. 26 — Def. Granville 61-49. Maddie Lockhart scored 19 points and Lynnsee Doran scored 12. Feb. 1 — Played Marion Elgin *Feb. 5 — Home vs. Zanesville Feb. 9 — Home vs. Ready. The Stallions won 55-52 on Jan. 15. Of note: The Stallions were 9-7 overall before Feb. 1 and are 4-3 in the CCL. *CCL game GYMNASTICS Jan. 29 — Finished sixth (135.075) in Rock-N-Roll Classic behind
“I was proud of the way everyone performed (at the CCL meet),” coach J.R. Fourqurean said. “They were all focused and excited about each others’ swims, which really sets us up to have an exciting postseason.” The postseason starts on Feb. 12 with a Division II sectional at Columbus Academy. The winner of each swimming event automatically advances to the district meet Feb. 18 at Ohio State. In addition, 27 at-large district berths per event will be awarded based on times from the three Central District sectionals, the East District sectional and the Southeast District sectional. There is no sectional diving. Last season, the boys team scored 151 points to finish third in the Columbus Academy sectional behind Academy (270) and Granville (248). Will Gish (200 free), Staton (50 free, 100 free), Kevin Walsh (200 individual medley, 100 butterfly) and James Walsh (100 fly) were district qualifiers a year ago. Kris Hallam, Santono Sanfillipo and the Walsh brothers also made it to district in the 200 medley relay. Gish and Staton were part of district-qualifying 200 and 400 free relays.
Brecksville-Broadview Heights (147.9) Feb. 4 — Sweeney Invitational at Central Ohio Gymnastics and Cheer HOCKEY *Jan. 29 — Lost to Olentangy 6-1 *Jan. 30 — Lost to St. Charles 5-2 *Feb. 4 — Worthington Kilbourne at Chiller North. The Stallions won 4-2 on Nov. 26 in a non-league game. *Feb. 5 — Olentangy Liberty at Chiller Easton *Feb. 6 — Dublin Scioto at Chiller Easton Of note: The Stallions are 5-19 overall and 1-8-1 in the Capital Hockey Conference. *CHC game SWIMMING & DIVING Jan. 25 — Boys: Lost to Columbus Academy 102-66; Girls: Lost to Academy 94-75 Jan. 29 — Boys: Finished second (240) in CCL meet behind St. Charles (470); Girls: Finished fourth (184) in CCL meet behind champion Watterson (407) Feb. 12 — Division II sectional at Academy WRESTLING Jan. 29 — Lost to Uhrichsville Claymont 72-3; lost to Strongsville 60-9 Feb. 3 — At Westerville North Feb. 5 — Rieman Invitational at Delaware
Andrea Acquista of the girls team won the CCL diving title with a meet-record 439.35 points. The Stallions scored 184 points to place fourth behind Watterson (407), Hartley (301) and Columbus School for Girls (242) and ahead of Ready (45). The girls team also is set to compete in the Academy sectional. A year ago, the Stallions placed fourth in that sectional behind champion Hartley (261). Suzanne Hrabowy (100 free, 100 fly, 200 medley relay, 200 free relay), Andrea Devakul (200 IM, 100 backstroke, 200 medley relay, 200 free relay), Kara Goodman (500 free, 100 back), Abby Moonis (500 free), Katie Murray (100 breaststroke) and Elisabeth Saunders (200 free) were district qualifiers a year ago. “Outside of Cooper on the boys side and Suzanne and Andrea Devakul on the girls side, nothing else is set in stone,” Fourqurean said when asked about his relay lineups for sectional. “The rest of the team knows that they have to keep fighting to earn those other relay spots and that it can change from week to week if you don’t perform.”

Lemongrass Fusion Cuisine is a Short North classic The story of Lemongrass Fusion Cuisine says a lot about Columbus. Once a brash and hot new dining star in the explosively growing constellation of Short North restaurants, about a dozen years later it has the status of a mature establishment that can even be taken for granted. That’s what I was thinking recently as I trekked back into Lemongrass’ heart-of-it-all digs. Having not been in a while, I wondered if the place would feel lively and fun again or simply outdated. At first glance, not a heck of a lot seemed different. Those same autographed entryway photographs of Michael Moore and Viggo Mortensen from Lemongrass’s glam-slamming earlier days were still hanging opposite its kicky little bar. And the restaurant proper had retained its theatrical look and
MENU by G.A. Benton vibe. So there’s the stage-like, trendily distressed wooden plank flooring, rainbow sherbet colored walls, a soaring ceiling, low and pleasant lighting and even a few little roofed dining niches bounded by gauzy curtains. This dramatic setting naturally attracts a classic, non-conformist Short North-type crowd. Lemongrass’ food is as flagrantly off-center as its freewheeling patrons and setting. Basically it’s a lot of Thai accents merging with Mediterranean sensibilities. For instance, the alluring Lemongrass Soup with vegetables

Pad Thai and Eurasia salad at Lemongrass.
($4) was like a compelling collision of minestrone and Tom Yum soups. A light and brightly citric broth with chili, fish sauce and lemongrass notes was filled with pasta shells and firm veggies like carrot, mushroom and zucchini. An unusual, but pretty and pleasing Eurasian Salad ($7) combined
shredded cheese with crispy Asian noodles, toasted almonds, pineapple, mandarin oranges and fresh greens. I liked its crunch and the way its unexpected tamarind-forward Worcestershire sauce-y dressing played off the fruit. Lemongrass’ huge menu includes lots of sushi, like the justifiably popular Lemongrass Roll ($12). With silky swaths of salmon and sweet BBQ eel draped over an inside-out spicy tuna roll accompanied by zingy sauces and garnishes, it managed to be delicious, fun and colorful without sounding too many bells and whistles. Ditto for the excellent Pad Thai with Tofu ($12). I was especially fond of its healthier than usual wealth of multi-hued vegetables and lack of grease. More one-note tasting was the Monsoon Shrimp ($16). It wasn’t

I would’ve liked its hints of chili and lemongrass to have been cranked up to balance out its milky sweetness. A more-interesting coconut milk dish was the Hawaiian Duck ($19). Italy met Asia on a veggie- and fruit-heavy plate of pasta with big chunks of delicious — but not
crispy-skinned — duck. Seared Cajun Scallops ($19) were pretty terrific. A generous load of zesty spice-coated shellfish was beautifully browned and wonderful tasting. Sure, Lemongrass’ ’90s-era cocktails don’t excite and its large wine list contains many smart “best buy” selections that no longer are. And yeah, a dessert like Fried Plantains (with upscale ice cream bar slices) is more fun than memorable. But Lemongrass is still a fun, lively and intriguing eatery. If it’s considered “just another Columbus restaurant,” that only speaks volumes about our modern and great-eating city. To read G.A. Benton’s blog visit ColumbusDiningGuide.com.
Clintonville readies for servings of Polish comfort food Unlike cities in northern Ohio, Columbus isn’t known for its large ethnic neighborhoods. Dennis Bennett said he doesn’t think that places Babushka’s Kitchen at a disadvantage. “What Columbus lacks in heritage it makes up in its foodiness,” said Bennett, who, with his wife, Jacky, will open the Polish restaurant sometime in the next few weeks in Clintonville. The restaurant will take over the old Scottie MacBean location at 4675 N. High St. The signature dish is the pierogi, which comes in five varieties: potato; potato and cheese; potato,
cheese and bacon; mushroom and swiss; and roasted sauerkraut. It’s made in-house and prepared in classic fashion: Boiled and then pan-fried with onions and butter and served with sour cream. Custom orders are accepted for carryout but must be made 24 hours in advance. Other ethnic favorites include kielbasa, made by a producer in Cleveland using Babushka’s special blend of spices; kolachky, folded pastry lined with

Have You Heard? by Greg VanHorssen EARS AND HEART SHARE MORE THAN 3 LETTERS When it comes to screening babies for hearing loss, the earlier the test is given, the better the outcome is likely to be. So says a recent study involving children with permanent hearing impairment. Researchers found that babies who underwent hearing screenings as newborns displayed better developmental outcomes than those who underwent screenings at nine months of age. Not only did the children screened earliest achieve greater overall, social, and gross motor developmental outcome scores by ages three to five years, they also displayed greater quality of life (as assessed by their parents). This study helps reinforce the notion that newborn hearing screening is a useful and effective means of improving the lives of children born with hearing impairment. Because communication is a vital part of our world no matter what our age, we’ll do all we can to promote healthy hearing for all members of your family. At ABSOLUTE HEARING SOLUTIONS, we’ll start with a comprehensive hearing test and evaluation to determine the best course of action to follow. If a hearing impairment is detected, we’ll use all our knowledge and experience to match the correct instrument with your abilities in order to make the most of the hearing you do have. We also perform unique speech tests to help us find out why a person is struggling with understanding speech. You can reach us at 614-654-4309, 1000 Morrison Road, Suite H, Gahanna.

fruit or cheese; and golabki, stuffed cabbage. Babushka’s offers counter-order service in a casual environment that seats 112. Reservations are not accepted and no alcohol is served. The restaurant was founded by Jacky’s parents, Dave and Nancy Abramowski, who opened the first Babushka’s near Akron. A third one is planned for Independence in the Cleveland area. Jacky will keep her job as director of conferences for The Ohio State University Alumni Association, while also pitching in at the restaurant. Her husband, meanwhile, will leave his job as culture coach for Campus Dining Services at OSU to run Babushka’s. Lack of on-site parking struck a nerve with Scottie MacBean’s immediate neighbors. Adding to the aggravation, the coffee shop’s ownership sought a liquor license, which was defeated by voters in the precinct. The Bennetts said additional parking can be found at Beechwold Custom Jewelry, a few blocks south. Also, they said they have no interest in seeking a liquor license. Jennifer Kangus, the area’s representative to the Clintonville Area Commission, said she’s in a waitand-see mode with the restaurant, as no one has yet raised an issue about parking. “Parking is always a concern in Clintonville,” she said. “It’s one of our universal themes. It always seems to come up. I’d like to see how things go and hopefully it will work out for the best.” Babushka’s will be open for lunch and dinner five days a week, lunch only on Sunday and closed Monday. For more information, call 614-447-9120. Melissa Worthington, a former banker and current nurse, has a new challenge: Cupcakes. Worthington and business partner Briana Irby, also a nurse at the OSU Medical Center, have opened Blue Frost Cupcake in Downtown Worthington. It’s another in a long line of independent cupcake
shops that have dotted the central Ohio map. Worthington said she hopes to differentiate her shop with quality ingredients – Madagascar bourbon vanilla, Saigon cinnamon and Callebaut chocolate, to name a few – and flavor. For video on this story, go to www.ThisWeekNews.com. Presentation and taste are equal, she contends. “We wanted something that tasted as good as it looked,” she said. Blue Frost, 657 High St., offers 10 permanent flavors, plus two daily specials, such as the lemon chiffon, which uses scratch-made lemon curd. Cupcakes are $2.50 each, $1.50 for minis. There’s a small amount of seating inside and a few beverages, such as coffee and tea. The bakery is open six days a week, closed Monday. Call 614-844-4850.
