District planning survey for parents By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers The New Albany-Plain Local School District is continuing to survey the community about its performance. “We’re trying to interview our stakeholder groups to identify if there is a linear track in terms of an end goal,” said Jeff Warner, the district’s communications director.
Superintendent April Domine said during the May 23 school board meeting that the district recently surveyed the 2011 senior class and surveys for parents are next. The student survey was developed by Domine as part of her doctorate work at Vanderbilt University. Warner said the survey for parents would be sent electronically to a random sampling of parents who have submit-
ted their email addresses to the district. The survey will be sent by Saperstein Associates, which conducted a random phone survey for the district in April. “We want input, perspective and opinion,” Warner said. “We’re interested in moving forward in our strategic plan and our benchmarking and we want to make sure we have community input, community opinions and opinions from the staff and students.”
The district paid Saperstein Associates $15,000 for the phone survey, which included pre-testing and survey development, conducting the survey, analyzing the data received and putting the data into a final report, according to the district. The district will pay the company $6,000 for the electronic survey. Once the electronic survey is complete, Warner said, the district will post the link on its website so other parents
City’s first MEMORIAL DAY CEREMONY police dog killed in accident By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers The New Albany Police Department is mourning its first canine officer, Bungee, who was killed in an accident May 25 after less than one year on the job. According to the department, the door on officer Joel Strahler’s car malfunctioned and Bungee leaped out of the car into the path of oncoming traffic on U.S. Route 62. “K-9 vehicles have automatic door openers installed so that doors can be opened remotely in case the dog needs to come to its handler’s aid,” said Sgt. Greg Jones. “Police dogs are trained to immediately leave the vehicle and get to work once the vehicle door opens. “Unfortunately, in this instance, we don’t know why the door opened but as soon as it opened, Bungee leapt into oncoming traffic and was killed. We’re investigating the incident to see if there was some malfunction with the vehicle door.” Bungee, a 3-year-old Belgian Malinois, arrived in New Albany Aug. 2, 2010, from Germany. He already was highly trained, logging 300 hours. He went through more than 500 hours of training after arriving in New Albany, which his handler, Strahler, also had to complete. The two hit the streets in late September. Bungee lived with Strahler and his family the entire time he worked in New Albany. Jones said Bungee was used as a patrol dog. He was trained to track suspects and find lost people, such as elderly residents with Alzheimer’s disease, who might wander from their residences. Bungee also could sniff out drugs in buildings. During his service, Bungee completed 57 searches and four drug sweeps of schools. He assisted neighboring police departments in four searches and was part of 23 cases where charges were filed.
can submit their opinions. The phone survey completed in April suggested that two out of three residents consider the district’s aspirations to become one of the nation’s top-performing districts to be important. But one out of two residents responded that it already was one of the top-performing districts in the nation. See SURVEY, page A2
35 vendors lined up for inaugural farmers market By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers
By Tim Norman/ThisWeek
People salute and hold their hands over their hearts for taps during the Memorial Day ceremony at Maplewood Cemetery in Plain Township on May 30. Members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 4719, American Legion Post 797 and the Knights of Columbus participated in the ceremony, which attracted about 50 residents. The New Albany High School band also played during the ceremony.
Organizers of the first New Albany farmers market have secured 35 vendors to provide locally grown and produced items. Kristina Jenny, one of the market organizers, said they sought vendors who are members of the Ohio Department of Agriculture’s “Ohio Proud” program, meaning 51 percent of their items or ingredients were produced in Ohio. That means a vendor selling produce at the New Albany farmers market will have dug the ground, sown the seed, weeded the land and harvested the produce, she said. “In July, you’re going to see a farmers market unlike any other in the whole Columbus market,” she said. The farmers market will be held from 4 to 7 p.m. every Thursday from July 7 to Sept. 8 in Market Square. The market will feature such wares as ingredients for meals, flowers to decorate the dinner table and favors for dinner guests to take home. Jenny said the market also is going to be more of a community event in its first year, with different events each week. During the first market July 7, attendees will be able to shred personal papers or receive free massages from Windsong, a local massage and therapies business. Subsequent market days will feature everything from classes for master gardeners and cooking demonstrations to live entertainment by such local groups as the New Albany Symphony Orchestra. Before the New Albany High School’s first home football game in August, the high school cheerleaders, marching band and Eagle mascot will be at the market, Jenny said.

NAWN is latest group to lend support to community garden By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers The New Albany community garden is receiving financial help from another local organization: the New Albany Women’s Network (NAWN). NAWN is donating $1,500 for a rain barrel, said garden organizer Suzanne Lucas.
Lucas called NAWN’s donation another way the community is supporting the project. “People believe in this project,” she said. The garden area already has been cleared and extra clay was removed.

project a success. Organizers have determined this year’s planting should be what Lucas called a “test garden.” They’ve ordered inexpensive raised boxes in which to plant and Lucas is looking for some volunteers to rent 4-by-4-foot boxes. “This will be a test garden with 12 plots,” she said. “We had to determine the size and study the soil, format and

They were, however, more likely to support a tax increase to address the district’s overcrowding issue.

College notes also said they want better communication. Warner said some of the same questions will be asked in the electronic survey for parents. He said he hopes information from all the surveys can be posted on the district’s website by the end of June. The information will be available through a link titled “Planning for prominence” on the school board’s information page. The district updated its strategic plan in 2010 and formed a benchmarking committee to study other districts and identify programs that New Albany could add to become a top-performing district.
Domine told the board May 23 that she hopes to report in June on the benchmarking committee’s progress. She said committee members are focusing their research on the 10 top-performing districts in the nation, which will be studied more in depth next year. The 40 committee members have been identifying districts through research and by interviewing people by phone. Eventually, the group is expected to send teams to those districts to better understand how they operate. lwince@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

MARKET Continued from page A1 Jenny spoke to the New Albany-Plain Local school board May 23 and said the market organizers are trying to include community organizations as much as possible. Students who need to log community volunteer service hours will have the opportunity to volunteer to help the vendors at the farmers market, Jenny said. “We do need to establish a more healthy atmosphere for our children and our adults,” Jenny said. To give back to the community, Jenny said, market organizers are coordinating ways that people can contribute to the local New Albany Coalition For Hunger, such as by buying one green pepper and donating another to the organization. The farmers market committee is chaired by Jenny and Sharon Dunn. Also on the committee are Suzanne Lucas, Janis Bobb, Cara Riddel, Tom Rubey and Frederick Jenny, a high school intern and Kristina’s son. Frederick Jenny said he would manage the market next year as his senior seminar project, which requires all NAHS seniors to research and complete a project in order to graduate. Jenny said he wanted to be part of the market to “learn how to manage a largescale operation.” Kristina Jenny said managing the market also would teach Frederick leadership skills. The New Albany farmers market is part of the Healthy New Albany initiative, which is organized through the New Albany Community Foundation. The vendors include: Ann’s Raspberry Farm, Beehive Bread, Bluejacket Dairy, Branstool Orchard, Crum Strawberry Farm, Doran’s Farm Market, Food for Good Thought, Garden Fresh Produce, Gluten Free Expressions, Green Bliss Organics, Heavenly Dips, Herbal Teas Plus, Kim Herring’s No Flour Cookies, Landrum Cottage Designs, Latshaw Apiaries, Leighton Meadow Farm, Lucky Cat Bakery, MacKenzie Creamery, Mott Family Farm, Ohio Farm Direct, OK Mercantile, Old Village Meats, Pewitts Pure Honey from Archer’s Acres, Rock Dove Farms, Safe-Lawns, Smart Klean Team & the Happy Gardener, Stiletto Gardener, Sunsprout Farms, Sweet Dolce, Sweet Thing Gourmet, Breathing Space Yoga, Unkle Timz Gourmet Salsas, Wayside Floral, Wild Hen Farm and Wishwell Farm. lwince@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

BUNGEE Continued from page A1 “He was a very good patrol dog and drug dog and obviously was great with the community,” Jones said. Bungee was often taken to special events and into the schools so residents and students could learn about his role with the department. Bungee was purchased with $7,500 in grants from the New Albany Community Foundation and the Limited Foundation. Officials said it is unclear at this point if Bungee will be replaced because the police department has no funding to purchase another dog. lwince@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

Commentary & opinion Columbus2020!
Prospects for job growth in central Ohio are promising Pharmaceutical companies often are judged by their “pipeline” of future products. Their stock price could fluctuate on the value of this pipeline and the potential it has to drive future revenue. The Columbus2020! initiative also tracks its pipeline of potential projects, those competitive initiatives that could add jobs and investment in the Columbus region. A close analysis likely would warrant a “buy” recommendation if the Columbus region were selling shares of stock. The Columbus2020! initiative’s pipeline comprises companies that aren’t here yet but that are considering central Ohio for new facilities, as well as existing companies that are considering expansion locally and a host of new enterprises that are being developed through TechColumbus and at satellite entrepreneurial centers throughout the area. One thing is clear: The level of activity is up compared to the past several years, and our prospects for the future are bright. A closer look at the new companies looking at our region shows that 58 percent of the projects are small- to medium-size operations in the advanced-manufacturing sector; 28 percent are international companies considering the United States, and a framework for headquarters and back-office projects has the potential to create hundreds of jobs. Projects are being sourced from nearly every corner of the nation, and each international mission is creating qualified projects. The region’s technology incu-
bators and entrepreneurial centers are nearing capacity in Columbus, Dublin and New AlKENNY bany, driven MCDONALD by market opportunities in the advanced-energy, advancedmaterials, information-technology and medical-healthcare sectors. It is a testament to the efforts of state and local leaders that such operations exist to nurture these new enterprises that represent the future of central Ohio. As another indicator, in 2010, funding for local startups reached new heights as a record-setting
117 promising young companies received $307.56 million in innovation capital to fuel the growth of their businesses. This is a 73percent increase over 2009. TechColumbus has the entire report online at TechColumbus.org. The Columbus area has to compete to win these projects, and the companies have to execute on their plans for our potential to be realized, but the market potential is there. The Columbus region has a lot to feel good about: Its future prospects for job growth and investment look great. Kenny McDonald is chief economic officer for Columbus2020! Email McDonald at km@columbusregion.com or visit columbusregion.com for more information.

Students praise new honors law course By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers The honors law and government course at New Albany High School gives students the chance to obtain college credit while also challenging them to “think at the highest levels,” said teacher John Dawson at the school board meeting May 23. Dawson said the class is a collaborative effort with Kenyon College. During the yearlong honors course, students “delve deeply into issues such as ancient political theory and practice, the American solution to government and justice, liberal democracy, modern legal theory and practice, the biblical alternative for justice and contemporary issues in the study of justice related to feminism, cultural relativism and what the future holds for Western civilization,” according to the course description. The class offers high school students eight semester credit hours from Kenyon College, something that senior Megan Carter said looks impressive on the resume she has sent to colleges.
As part of the course, students participate in the state high school mock trial program, in which they act as working attorneys and compete against students from other schools. Carter said the mock trial program is different from other school programs in that it requires students to use their minds. They cannot simply memorize information to use in a case. Both of the school’s mock trial teams advanced to the regional competition and each won one of the two trials in the competition. The following students also won individual awards: Carter, Elizabeth Aurand, Bailey Harmon, Emily Fox, Ellen Waddell and Paige Golian won outstanding attorney awards, while Jennica Sergio, Chloe Faherty, Brandon Mendoza, Hannah Samman, and Sydney Curley won awards for being outstanding witnesses. Waddell, a senior, said the honors law course and her humanities class, a required course for New Albany High School students, helped shape

They went a step further to help the homeless through a lunch program started by their teacher, Courtney Smith. “Lunches of Love” was designed to teach the children about disadvantaged children and provide nourishment to the homeless in Columbus, Smith told the school board May 23. “Every week, we pack lunches that we send to five different homeless camps in Columbus,” he said. The food is provided through donations from the students and their families. “We wanted to give them a real-world experience,” Smith said. “They now know about the homeless and are able to help.” The second-graders also write inspirational notes and include them in the lunch bags. Smith said stu-
dents use their own words to encourage homeless children and their families to think about better days. “A lot of the letters (we’ve received in response) have been very powerful,” said superintendent April Domine. Board member Natalie Matt asked if the district could post some of the letters on its website to help others learn about the program. Domine said she would look into it. Board vice president Laura Kohler praised the program, saying it involves the students’ families, as well, through the donation process. “It’s helping to raise compassionate, caring citizens,” Kohler said. In the school’s May/June newsletter, the 2-5 building principals, Chris Briggs and Robin Ryan, called the program a good example of service learning, which “combines service to the community along with the classroom curriculum. While providing hands-on experiences for students to master subject material, this type of learning can help foster civic responsibility.”

Construction of Presbyterian church building begins June 5 New Albany Presbyterian Church will break ground on its new $1.4-million church building project at 10 a.m. Sunday, June 5, at the southeast corner of Johnstown Road and Harlem Road. The church was established 11 years ago and the congregation has been meeting in local schools. The 12,595-square foot building was designed by Brian Kent Jones Architects. It includes a 286seat sanctuary, seven classrooms for adults and children, a nursery and “cry room” and a kitchen.

It is designed for future expansion. The church currently holds two services: a traditional service at 9:30 a.m. and an acoustic guitar-led service at 11 a.m. The new building is the culmination of a $1.4million capital campaign, which started three years ago, and the completion of a land acquisition between the Presbytery of Scioto Valley and the New Albany Co. — Lori Wince

HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE CASH IN ON MODERN DAY GOLD RUSH! By Jason Delong
Gold and silver pour into yesterday’s Roadshow due to highest prices in 40 years.
STAFF WRITER Yesterday in Worthington & Reynoldsburg, hundreds lined up to cash in antiques, collectibles, gold and jewelry at the Treasure Hunters Roadshow. The free event is in both towns all week, buying gold, silver, antiques and collectibles. One visitor I spoke with yesterday said, “It’s unbelievable, I brought in some old coins that had been in a little cigar box for years and some old herringbone necklaces—in less than fifteen minutes I left with a

That stuff has been in my jewelr y box and dresser for at least 20 years.” Another gentleman brought in an old Fender guitar his father had bought years ago. The man said, “Dad had less than fifty bucks in that guitar.” The Roadshow specialist that assisted him made a few phone calls and a veterinarian in Seattle, Washington bought the guitar for $5,700.00. The seller continued, “I got another $150.00 for a broken necklace and an old class ring. It’s not every day that someone comes to town bringing six thousand dollars with your name on it.” Jeff Parsons, President of the Treasure

Eagles girls advance to state By KURTIS ADAMS ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Taneisha Cordell of New Albany competes in the 3,200-meter relay alongside Hilliard Davidson’s Jessica Hoover (left) and Pickerington Central’s Morgan Richardson during the Division I regional meet May 25 at Pickerington North. The Eagles finished second to qualify for the state meet.
Track & Field
Eagles hoping for big state finishes By JEREMY STEWART ThisWeek Community Newspapers
By Eric George/ThisWeek
The Eagles’ Mycah Mason takes off after getting the baton from teammate Hannah Inman in the preliminaries of the 800 relay at the regional meet May 25. Mason advanced to state in the 300-meter hurdles with a fourth-place finish.
Travon Bodrick, Drew Windle and Blake Taneff will be representing the New Albany High School boys track and field team in the Division I state meet on Friday, June 3, and Saturday, June 4, at Ohio State. Bodrick qualified for state by placing second in the long jump in 21 feet, 11 3/4 inches at the regional meet which concluded May 27 at Pickerington North. Brookhaven’s Nigel Preacher won the event (22-6 3/4). Bodrick led the way for the Eagles, who scored 33 points to tie Olentangy Liberty for third behind co-champions Westerville North (37) and Thomas Worthington (37) as 39 teams scored. The top four finishers in each regional event advanced to state. “We were a couple of events away from trying to win this thing,” coach Chad Olinger said. “We had a couple of fifth-place finishes and some sixth-place finishes that were close to qualify-
ing. It was a great team effort and we’ve been preaching team all year. Almost to June and we’re still preaching team, and that’s a good thing at this point.” Windle and Taneff advanced to state in their respective distance events by employing different race strategies at regional. Windle, who qualified for state in the 800 meters, hung in the middle of the pack for more than half of his race before making a move. He ended up placing second in 1 minute, 53.2 seconds behind Lancaster’s Brannon Kidder (meet-record 1:51.09) after passing Olentangy Liberty’s Chris Uhle (1:53.3), Westerville North’s Jacob Dumford (1:53.74) and Dublin Coffman’s Robbie Daulton (1:54.98), who were the third-, fourth- and fifthplace finishers. “I knew I had more foot speed than Daulton and Dumford and I knew about Kidder,” Windle said. “I was hoping I was going to outkick all of them, but I’m hoping to get out a little faster (at state).” See TRACK, page B3
Boys Tennis
New Albany’s season ends at state level By JEREMY STEWART ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The final week of the season was a tough one for the New Albany High School boys tennis team. On May 27, a hobbled Steven Miller Jr. lost in the first round of the Division I state tournament at Hilliard Davidson. Two days later, New Albany lost both of its matches in the OTCA state team tournament at Davidson. “The main thing was since my freshman year we’ve constantly been ranked in the top part of the state rankings, but we never made it to the final four,” senior Sam Romanoff said. “Even though everyone feels disappointed, it was exciting to play in (the state team tournament).” New Albany lost to Toledo St. John’s 3-1 in its state semifinal match. Miller lost to Evan Bechtel 6-4, 6-1 at first singles. The Eagles’ John Hendrix beat Ryan Jorgenson in second singles 7-6 (7-5), 6-4.
Romanoff and Sean Yun lost to Madhav Mehta and Connor Majdalani 6-3, 6-3 in first doubles. In second doubles, Ryan Brown and Spencer Crawford defeated the Eagles’ Ameen Farwana and Jordan Rabe 7-6 (7-5), 6-3. New Albany’s Oliver Sybert led Bobby Adusmilli 6-3 at third singles, but the match was halted after St. John’s had clinched the victory. St. John’s later defeated Cincinnati St. Xavier 3-1 to win the team title, and Bechtel won the Division I state championship in singles. New Albany lost its consolation match to Cuyahoga Falls Walsh Jesuit 3-2. “We had our chances to win,” coach Andrew Sinclair said. “If we would have won that first match, we might have been able to win that match against a really good St. Xavier team. After coming so close (against St. John’s) the guys had a By Eric George/ThisWeek tough time getting going for the match Steven Miller Jr. of New Albany returns a shot during a first-round singles against Walsh Jesuit.”
Regardless of the opponent, New Albany High School girls lacrosse coach Dave Ferguson seems to have a simplistic approach as to what his team will need to do in order to win its first Division I state championship. “We just have to go finish what we set out to do at the beginning of the year,” he said. The Eagles, who advanced to a state semifinal with a 9-3 victory over Mason in a South/Central Region final May 26 while improving to 15-3 overall, will play Cleveland Heights or Medina at 4:30 p.m. Friday, June 3, at Gates Mills Hawken. The championship game will be played at 1 p.m. Saturday, June 4, at Hawken. Cleveland Heights, which defeated the Eagles 17-10 on May 7 in a game it led only 7-6 at halftime, was the state’s overall top seed, according to the LaxPower rankings. The Tigers, helped greatly by their strengthof-schedule, were 10-6 entering a North/Central Region final May 31 against third-ranked and defending state champion Medina, which was 13-2. Medina defeated the Eagles 13-12 on May 13, and the Bees also won last year’s state semifinal matchup with New Albany 11-10. “Having played them both already this season is definitely an advantage for us,” said Ferguson, whose team is seeking its fourth state title in five years after capturing three consecutive championships in Division II from 2007-09. “The Medina game was rescheduled, so we had a lot of distractions going on. And Cleveland Heights, well, they were very good, obviously, but now we have a better idea how they play defensively.” The other state semifinal features second-ranked Upper Arlington and the winner of the other North/Central Region final played May 31 between fourthranked Hudson and 12th-ranked Thomas Worthington. Entering that game, Hudson was 14-2-1 and Thomas was 14-4. The Eagles did not play Hudson during the regular season but defeated the Cardinals 11-10 on April 26 en route to winning the OCC-Buckeye Division title. UA, which was last year’s state runner-up, advanced by eliminating Cincinnati Sycamore 20-11 in another South/Central Region final May 26. The Golden Bears led 9-4 at halftime and outscored their first three postseason opponents by a cumulative score of 32-4 in the first half. That included leads of 12-0 during a 19-0 win over Liberty Township Lakota East in the second round May 18 while posting their first shutout since 2008 and 11-0 against Cincinnati Ursuline Academy in a regional semifinal May 23 on their way to a 19-1 victory. “We’ve been really focused,” said Upper Arlington coach Kim

Academy Roundup
Regional title excites Vikes’ boys track team By FRANK DiRENNA ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The Columbus Academy boys track and field team hopes its impressive postseason continues at the Division III state meet Friday, June 3, and Saturday, June 4, at Ohio State. The Vikings scored 71 points to win the regional meet that concluded May 27 at Fairfield Union, finishing well ahead of runner-up Ready (45) as 46 teams scored. They also won the district meet that concluded May 21 at Gahanna, scoring 83.5 points to finish ahead of runnerup Grandview (68.5) as 21 teams scored. “This is only the fifth time we have won a regional in my 37 years here,” coach Bob Kirk said. “We nearly scored as many points (at regional) as we did (at district) and there were three or four times the teams here than (at district). There were teams from (Lake Erie) to the (Ohio River).” Junior Jon Michael Hilsheimer will be making a return trip to state. He won the 800 meters (1 minute, 57.3 seconds) and placed third in the 1,600 (4:22.83). He also teamed with seniors Ben Meacham and John Sutton and freshman Jack Lint on the winning 1,600 relay (3:25.35) and with Sutton, sophomore Dominic Facciolla and freshman Jake Tuckerman on the winning 3,200 relay (8:10.79). Last season, Hilsheimer and 2010 graduates Clay Hoster, Gebby Keny and Nathaniel Sutton combined to win the state title in the 1,600 relay (3:18.65), breaking the 16-year-old state record by almost three seconds. Also qualifying for state were Lint, who won the 300 hurdles (38.99), and sophomore Tyler Gittins, who placed fourth in the 300 hurdles (40.21). The top four finishers in each regional event advanced to state. “It was amazing and it was big for me to win (regional) as a freshman,” said Lint, who edged Bainbridge Pant Valley’s Tim Morrell (39.14) for the title in the 300 hurdles. “I knew I came into the finals with the fastest time, but that didn’t mean I would win. I knew the kid from Paint Valley was good, so I had to run even better. The key was hitting the last two hurdles in stride. When we hit the last hurdle, we were even, but I was able to sprint away from (Morrell) down the stretch.” Kirk is looking forward to another solid performance at state.
At a glance
Below are the state qualifiers for the Academy track & field teams with regional event, place and time/distance/height: BOYS — Dominic Facciolla: 3,200 (fourth, 10:00.97); Tyler Gittins: 300 hurdles (fourth, 40.21); Jon Michael Hilsheimer: 800 (first, 1:57.53), 1,600 (third, 4:22.83); Jack Lint: 300 hurdles (first, 38.99); John Sutton: 800 (second, 1:58.25); 1,600 relay: Hilsheimer, Lint, Ben Meacham and Sutton (first, 3:25.35); 3,200 relay: Facciolla, Hilsheimer, Sutton and Jake Tuckerman (first, 8:10.79) GIRLS — Sarah Timko: high jump (fourth, 5-2) Other regional results: BOYS — Facciolla: 1,600 (fifth, 4:25.96); Lint: long jump (sixth, 133 3/4) GIRLS — Dina Sinno: 1,600 (fifth, 5:28.31), 3,200 (fifth, 12:04.77); 800 relay: Aziza Corbett, Cami Mampieri, Melanie Knopp and Jillian Woodard (ninth, 1:51.81); 1,600 relay: Corbett, Anjali Kanwar, Margaret Sutton and Timko (fifth, 4:13.44); 3,200 relay: Alisha Ho, Sarah Lazarus, Sinno and Sutton (fifth, 10:07.73)
Academy defeated Cincinnati Summit Country Day 10-8 in a South/Central Region semifinal May 24 at Hartley, as Clarissa Leickly and Allie Roehrenbeck scored three goals apiece. Against CSG, Courtney Deena’s goal in the final minute snapped a 13-all tie. “The kids played so strong against CSG,” Horton said. “It was our best first half of the season. The kids put together two solid halves. CSG wouldn’t go away, but we finished the game in our favor.” •Juniors Langston Hughes and Chris Perrini of the boys tennis team capped their season in the Division II state doubles tournament May 27 at Hilliard Davidson. Hughes and Perrini beat Gates Mills Gilmour Academy’s Wes Noall and Mike Riley 6-4, 3-6, 6-3 in the first round before losing to Lima Central Catholic’s John Kidd and Alex Swick 6-2, 6-4 in a quarterfinal. Hughes and Perrini, who had won sectional and district titles, finished 9-2. Academy finished 8-9 overall and 5-1 with 43 points in the MSL-Ohio/Cardinal Division to place second, behind Bexley (60, 47) and ahead of Granville (4-2, 29), Fisher Catholic (3-3, 17), Grandview (2-4, 15), Whitehall (1-5, 8) and West Jefferson (0-6, 2). Academy was sixth in the final Division II state poll, behind top-ranked Hunting Valley University School. The Vikings were denied a fourth consecutive OTCA Division II team title after losing to Watterson 3-1 in the first round April 14. Academy had defeated the Eagles 3-2 on April 7. “You’re coming off three straight state championships, so the expectations go up and some of that isn’t necessarily fair for these guys,” coach Jeff Warstler said. “This particular group shouldn’t be held to the standard of what some of those other guys have done. I thought they still took the reins of that responsibility.” The Vikings lose two seniors in Harsha Chandupatla and Sean Firouzian. Along with Hughes and Perrini, expected to return are juniors Dan Leathery and Abram Schottenstein, sophomore Ezra Smith and freshmen Evan Alexander, Ryan Jung and Nikhil Patel.
“These kids are coachable and they do the things that I tell them they need to do,” he said. “They do their warm-downs between races and get focused for the next races. They did the little things they needed to do to be successful.” The girls team will be represented at state by sophomore Sarah Timko, who placed fourth at regional in the high jump (5 feet, 2 inches). The Vikings scored 21 points at regional to tie Fredericktown for 10th behind champion Waynesfield-Goshen (71) as 47 teams scored. •The girls lacrosse team is seeking its first state title since 2000. The Vikings defeated Columbus School for Girls 14-13 in a Division II South/Central Region final May 26 at Westerville Central to improve to 14-1-1 and advance to play Rocky River in a state semifinal Friday, June 3, at Gates Mills Hawken. The semifinal winner plays Cincinnati Mariemont or Shaker Heights Hathaway Brown in the state final Saturday, June 4, at Hawken. “We’re in a great spot,” coach Anne Horton said. “We’re peaking at the right time.” Mariemont handed Academy its lone loss of the season, beating the Vikings 13-10 on April fdirenna@thisweeknews.com 15. www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Rocheleau, whose team lost to the Eagles 12-11 in overtime April 19 on Emily Newman’s decisive goal. “We’ve got a chance to work on things we’ve been working on in order to make it all the way through the tournament.” Newman and Elaina Enich both scored four goals against 10th-ranked Mason, which finished 11-6-2. New Albany was even better defensively, Ferguson said. “Our goalkeeper (Sam Arey) had 18 saves on 21 shots,” he said. “And our defense in front of her, it was outstanding. They forced a lot of poor shots.” •The boys team finished 127 overall after a 16-6 loss to second-seeded DeSales in a Division II Central Region semifinal May 26. “We’re very proud of the way the kids played all year,” coach Sean McGinnis said. “They had the mental strength to make it

The New Albany High School boys lacrosse team on May 13 presented a check for more than $3,600 to the Stefanie Spielman Fund for Breast Cancer Research at Ohio State’s The James cancer center. The money was raised through special promotions during New Albany’s “Battle for 161” game against Granville, which the Eagles won 10-5 on May 6.

Continued from page B1 Taneff, on the other hand, didn’t want to rely on his kick to secure a state-qualifying spot. He led for a large part of the 3,200 before finishing third (9:18.96) behind Westerville North’s Brian Hannaford (9:14.42) and Dublin Scioto’s Luis Carbajal (9:14.79). Taneff is back at state after a one-year absence. He finished 12th in the 3,200 (9:39.5) at state in 2009 as a sophomore. “I didn’t have the mental problems this year that I had last year,” Taneff said. “Last year I was a little freaked out. This year I came in with a calm and cool attitude. I’m so happy to get a round two (at state).” New Albany had only one state qualifier last year in 2010 graduate Jordan Williams, who finished 11th in the 400. The Eagles did not score as Warren Harding won with 47 points. •The girls team will be represented at state by Taneisha Cordell, Mirra Galbreath, Mycah Mason and Lexi Simpson. Cordell advanced to state in the 800 by winning the event in a regional-record 2:10.34. Dublin Jerome’s Rebecca Rings was runner-up (2:15.39). Cordell also qualified for state in the 800 last year but did not finish the race after getting tripped in the final 150 meters. In 2009 as a sophomore at Reynoldsburg, she won the state title in the event in 2:10.79. “I’m still working,” Cordell said of trying to win another

Below are the state qualifiers for the Gahanna Lincoln track & field teams with regional event, place and time/distance/height: BOYS — Travon Bodrick: long jump (second, 21-11 3/4); Blake Taneff: 3,200 (third, 9:18.96); Drew Windle: 800 (second, 1:53.2) GIRLS — Taneisha Cordell: 800 (first, 2:10.34); Mycah Mason: 300 hurdles (fourth, 44.69); 3,200 relay:
state title. “I still want it bad and I’m still working for it. I’m not giving up.” Mason advanced to state in the 300 hurdles a little more than a month after competing in the event for the first time. She placed fourth at regional in 44.69 behind the champion, Reynoldsburg’s Faith Washington (42.88). “My main goal was to make it to state in an individual event,” said Mason, who qualified for state in an individual event for the first time after being on the 1,600 relay that placed third (3:50.21) at state last year. “With the (1,600 relay) going last year, it was an awesome time and a great event. I wish we could have made it back, but those freshmen (Eliza Matt and Simpson) will get three more shots at it.” Also qualifying for state was the 3,200 relay of Cordell, Galbreath, Mason and Simpson. The foursome placed second (9:23.77) at regional, behind Dublin Coffman (9:20.54). New Albany scored 29 points

New SUM MER to Westlake’s Colton Buffington 6-2, 6-4. Two days later, he was playing the state singles champion in the team tournament despite an ankle injury. “We called the trainer out (during the Bechtel match) because (Miller) had rubbed the skin raw on the back of his heel,” Sinclair said. “He was putting so much pressure on his good foot, he needed some skin treatment. He was only about 80 percent out there and, to be honest, he still had (Bechtel) on the ropes.”
New Albany finished the season 18-3. The Eagles reached the state tournament by defeating Thomas Worthington 4-1 in a district final May 24. Miller was injured in the district tournament May 21, putting his status in doubt for the match against Thomas. He ended up being moved from second singles to first doubles and played with Yun, who had been playing first singles. In the state tournament, Miller lost his first-round match www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

New Albany loses seven seniors, including first-team allleague player Braden Passias (midfielder), second-team pick Clyde Wallace (attacker) and honorable mention selection Tyler Harris (midfielder). Passias, Wallace and junior Connor Hinson (goalkeeper) all made second-team all-region, and Hinson also made first-team allleague. Others expected to return include junior George Brand, who was one of the team’s top defenders, and sophomore Sean Conley, another defender who missed the second half of the season with a hip injury, as well as junior midfielders Ben Schottenstein and Zach Pewitt. “Reaching the regional semifinal is a positive way to go into next year,” McGinnis said.
