Bexley to ask for higher income tax By JEFF DONAHUE ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Bexley City Council is prepared to put an issue on the November ballot that will increase the municipal income tax from 2 percent to 2.5 percent, allowing a 65percent credit for residents who work outside the city. At council’s June 14 meeting, Ben Kessler, chairman of the finance and judiciary committee, came up just one vote short of unanimous approval for the tax increase in an informal discussion of the issue. Council member Richard Sharp said he favored an 80 percent credit up to 2 percent, with no credit above 2 per-

cent. Kessler said he was not comfortable with Sharp’s recommendation. “While this structure has some advantages, I have found it difficult to conceptually communicate to voters, and it’s also less equitable across the board in terms of overall local income tax burden for Bexley residents who work in various municipalities outside of Bexley,” Kessler said. City auditor Gary Qualmann also endorsed Kessler’s plan, as opposed to his previous recommendation of 2.5 percent, with an 80 percent credit capped at 2 percent. Kessler, council president Jeff Mc-

Clelland, and council members Jed Morison and Mark Masser all expressed support for the issue, as did Mayor John Brennan. Kessler said city revenues are no longer enough to keep up with expenses and that a cut in the state’s Local Government Fund and the proposed elimination of Ohio’s estate tax leave the city with no other choice than to ask residents for additional financial support. “The city budget crisis has been caused by a perfect storm of a loss of state funding, stagnant income over the past several years, and a budget which has a high ratio of fixed expenses such as the city’s fire contract, debt service, and capital

items,” Kessler said. “Coming in to these economic conditions, Bexley already was operating on one of the lowest general fund budgets, per capita, of any central Ohio suburb, due to our high ratio of housing and our small ratio of payroll-tax-generating office properties, so our budget is particularly sensitive to the state cuts and the volatile economic climate.” City council will also make somewhere between $400,000 and $1 million in cuts to the budget while attempting to preserve as many services as possible. Kessler stressed that cuts will also be part of the solution to the budget crisis. “This tax alone will not solve Bexley’s

budget issues,” he said. “…We will need to make further cuts to the budget in order to balance it moving forward, and I continue to believe that, due to the uncertainty regarding the future of the estate tax, those cuts need to err on the side of being aggressive while still maintaining a high level of standard on core city services. “I believe that city council and the administration need to work as a united front to set clear standards for budget cuts that must, by necessity, entail employee concessions. The discussion of further budget cuts will be a focal point of discussion See INCOME, page A2

Council asks legislators to reconsider elimination of estate tax By JEFF DONAHUE ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Matt and Mindy Cooper will be moving their kosher bakery, Matt’s Bakery, from its current location at 3311 E. Broad St. to the Kroger store at 3675 E. Broad St. The bakery is slated to be open at Kroger before Hanukkah.

Kosher bakery relocating to East Broad Street Kroger By JAYME DETWEILER ThisWeek Community Newspapers The only kosher bakery in Columbus is moving farther east to take advantage of the store’s foot traffic. Matt’s Bakery owner, Matt Cooper, said the bakery will offer more selections than the previous location at 3111 E. Broad St. This is not the first time Cooper has moved his bakery. Matt’s Bakery first opened in Wooster, Mass., and moved to Columbus in 2005. Cooper’s wife, Mindy, is originally from Columbus. Cooper said he also knew there was a bigger Jewish population in Columbus. He said the reason for the move from 3111 E. Broad St. to 3675 E. Broad St. was to serve a greater client population.

“It is an opportunity to expand our client base,” said Cooper. “There is a lot more foot traffic in Kroger.” With the extra foot traffic, Cooper thinks the bakery will be able to expand its cake decorating orders and bagel offerings. “We are hoping to be able to do more of the same, but some new things also,” he said. The new facility will be located in the back left corner of Kroger. Cooper and his wife will continue to own and manage the bakery and it will be staffed by current employees. Cooper said he hopes the move leads to the need for a larger staff. The East Broad Street Kroger remodeled 1,500 square feet to accommodate Matt’s Bakery.

“Moving the facility to Kroger allows Matt and his staff to continue doing what they do best — create incredible baked goods,” said Mel Bomprezzi, Kroger vice president of merchandising. The completion date for this transition is not finalized, but Cooper hopes the process will be completed before Hanukah. After the move, Matt’s Bakery will provide full service and self-serve options during bakery hours, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Thursday and 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., Friday. When the bakery is closed on Saturdays, self-service baked goods will be available. Kroger will continue to provide Kosher products in its Kosher market, which opened in 2008. www.ThisWeekNews.com

City council will wait to fill police vacancy By JEFF DONAHUE ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Bexley City Council members have agreed to wait until after the November election to fill a police department vacancy created when a patrolman resigned to accept a position in Westerville. Police Chief Larry Rinehart told members of city council’s safety committee that Justin Hibbett, who has been with the department since 2009, recently accepted a position

in Westerville, leaving Bexley with a position to fill. “Since he was a patrol officer, that means the five days a week he worked, his five shifts, I will be one officer short,” Rinehart said. “We will try to fill that with overtime as best as we can. I would have liked to have gotten the green light from council to go ahead and fill it right now, but understandably, they want to wait and see what happens with the levy in November.”

Facing projected multi-milliondollar operating deficits over the next five years, the city will ask voters in November to increase the municipal income tax from 2.0 percent to 2.5 percent. Safety committee chairman Mark Masser recommended Rinehart fill the vacancy as soon as possible. Masser suggested that if the levy is not approved in November and cuts need to be made, See POLICE, page A2

Despite the fact that the Ohio General Assembly appears ready to eliminate the state’s estate tax, Bexley City Council members made one final appeal during their June 14 meeting. Finance and judiciary committee chairman Ben Kessler introduced a resolution that was unanimously adopted asking state legislators to reconsider the action, which is scheduled to take effect Jan. 1, 2013. Kessler said he would personally present the resolution in opposition to the state of Ohio’s proposed elimination of the Ohio estate tax without alternative funding solutions to state Rep. Kevin Bacon on June 17. A final vote on the issue is anticipated this week. Among the reasons for the appeal cited in the resolution are: • The city of Bexley receives more than 15 percent of its annual income from the Ohio Estate Tax. • The state of Ohio is concurrently making drastic cuts to local government funds, which, in conjunction with the loss of the estate tax would reduce revenue to the city of Bexley by more than 25 percent, a percentage that vastly exceeds the shortfall being experienced by the state of Ohio. • The Bexley community is already struggling to recover from

the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression. • Even prior to the cuts, Bexley operBen ates with one Kessler of the lower general fund budgets, per capita, in central Ohio. • State of Ohio policy changes that result in a loss of income of this magnitude force the city of Bexley to severely cut back on essential city services and/or raise taxes, and are therefore no different than the state of Ohio instituting a tax increase at the local level. • State lawmakers are in the process of instituting these extraordinary cuts without providing localities with any meaningful tools to deal with the shortfalls short of cutting services or instituting a tax increase. The resolution states city council’s opposition to the elimination of the Ohio estate tax while no meaningful alternative tools are being provided to assist municipalities in dealing with the income shortfalls that will result from the loss of this revenue. It also urges state lawmakers to adopt one or more of the following actions: • Maintain the Ohio estate tax See ESTATE TAX, page A2

Rinehart should eliminate nonpatrol positions first. Rinehart said it wouldn’t be that simple. “The problem with that is we are a very thin police department,” Rinehart said. “There is a lot of mandatory reporting and records keeping and administration. If I were to cut somebody else I would just be forced to have patrol officers do that work. I don’t have any excess positions. I do not have any noncritical positions. Most agencies our size have two or three administrative support people. I have one.” Rinehart said that because of extended medical leave and injury, his department is already down two patrol officers. Council members agreed that the best solution until November is to pay officers overtime to cover extra shifts. “We will do this until at least November and that’s if the residents elect to give us a tax increase,” Rinehart said. “If they

don’t, it’s only going to get worse. It would certainly affect police coverage in some form or fashion.” Even if all goes well in November, Rinehart can’t promise to immediately fill the vacancy. The current Bexley police civil service-approved hiring list expires in July. Rinehart said it will take at least a month to complete testing and compile a new list. Then, if the top qualifier has not completed police academy training, Rinehart would have to wait for him or her to complete that training before the new hire could begin patrol duties. Despite the management headache, Rinehart said city council is not playing politics with the position. “I understand that council wants to make sure we have money to pay,” he said. “I think they’re just trying to be responsible. None of us want to hire somebody right away then have to lay them off in January. We’re not going to hire anybody until we can guarantee them that the job is secure.”

Bexley TIRC gets update on status of major projects

Langner gives update on city development

By JEFF DONAHUE

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Bexley development director Bruce Langner updated members of the city’s Tax Incentive Review Council on the status of the city’s major projects during the group’s June meeting. The following is a recap of his report: • The Shoppes of Bexley is in the last year of a 5-year tax exemption. Langner said all tenant spaces in the center are now occupied. The tenant list includes: Aladdin’s Eatery; Connell’s Maple Lee Flowers & Gifts; Robins Benefit Group; Barnett Realty; and the Zen Cha Tea Salon. He said 39 jobs have been created, eight more than the 31 projected, and 12 retained, five fewer than the 17 that were projected. The project has exceeded the committed investment in the property. Langner said new payroll generated at the center is $536,040, about $100,000 less than the $633,400 that was projected. Retained payroll is $281,434, significantly less than the $428,775 that was projected. He said the investment to date in the project is $2,331,000. • One Dawson Place, 2372 E. Main St., has exemptions that started at various times. Langner said the two top units are now part of the Main Street Residential Abatement District. Four of the condominium units have sold. Investment to date is $5,831,024, well in excess of the $3,600,000 committed. While three to six jobs were projected to be created by the project, only two have been created to date. The payroll of $136,975 exceeds the $90,000 projected.

• The Chase Bank building, 2656-2660 E. Main St., is also in the last year of a 5-year exemption. Two tenants, Chase Bank and Snap Fitness, occupy the building. A total of 20 jobs have been created out of a commitment of 23. Langner said payroll ($611,191) has nearly reached the projected level of $616,356 and the investment of $1,665,247 has exceeded the commitment of $1,050,000. • The Bexley Gateway North project, 2152-2158 E. Main St., is currently in the third year of a 15-year exemption at 50 percent on the commercial portion. Four tenants – The Rusty Bucket, Moshi

Sushi, Jeni’s Ice Cream, and Hummel Title are currently located in the building. A total of 67 jobs have been created, 12 fewer than the 79 projected. While no jobs were originally projected to be retained, nine have been. The projected payroll was lowered to $1,200,000 in

By JEFF DONAHUE

2010. Payroll at the end of 2010 was $1,157,755. Langner reported retained payroll for the project of $548,704. He said a new tenant is currently looking to lease some of second floor space. If that happens it would enable the project to exceed the payroll commitment. Investment to date is $25,237,244, well above the $17,700,000 commitment. • Langner reported that 15 of the 27 condominium units at Bexley Gateway Plaza have been sold or are in contract. The project has a 70 percent average exemption with 100 percent for the first five years, over a 15-year period. • Langner said the Main Street Tax Increment Financing District started at the end of 2006 but was not certified until 2008. Revenue has totaled $334,162.52 to date and expenditures have totaled $41,382.2. The breakout of expenditures includes: $9,022.20 for 12 new trash containers; $873 for three new bike racks; $24,750 to reimburse One Dawson for infrastructure expenditures; $1,744.01 to MRMJ for reimbursement (the first $4,500 in proceeds go to replace trees on Main street); $5,000 to the county auditor’s office to administer the TIF program.

Bexley development director Bruce Langner updated city council members on a number of new business projects in the city during council’s June 14 meeting. Langner said a new office user for the Gateway development is still in negotiations with Plaza Properties. He offered no additional details. He also reported that the new owners of Café Istanbul (formerly Barbounia Restaurant) at 2455 East Main St. have received permission from the landowner to remove the driveway approach on Main Street, as approved by the Bexley Planning Commission, and extend the patio out to the sidewalk. “I still expect a summer opening, maybe in July,” Langner said. He said Piada Italian Street Food, 2585-2599 E. Main St. is off to a great start. “It’s now open and doing a booming business,” Langner said. Langner reported that Bexley’s VIP Nails, 2681 East Main St., submitted monument sign and window sign concepts at the May 23 Planning Commission meeting, and both were tabled. Sunoco Convenience Mart has submitted its monument sign for

In other development department activities, Langner reported: • A grant application has been prepared for the Bexley Historical Society to be submitted to Whitehall-Bexley Rotary to fund exterior improvements to the Society’s office building. • Meetings are continuing with the America in Bloom committee for this summer’s judges’ visit. • A presentation was given to the Bexley Realtors weekly meeting regarding development activities in the city. • He met with a potential office user at Gateway to explain the Office Incentive Grant program. • He also met with ODOT officials on the Safe Routes to School Program and its relevance for Bexley. • A meeting was held with members of the Community Foundation and Main Street Merchants Association reps to discuss an iPhone App for Bexley similar to the one Grandview Heights is using. jdonahue@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNEWS.com

Commentary & opinion

6499 E. Broad St. Columbus, OH 43213

Many people find Indian trails especially intriguing. The notion that we may be walking (or, more often, driving) on the same path taken by the Shawnee, Wyandot or Mingo resiED dents of central LENTZ Ohio gives us a living link to the past. In an age increasingly made of plastic and microchips, there is something reassuring about the idea that we still follow the same roads used by others for hundreds of years. And we do follow those previous paths … more or less. Just as there is something magical in being able to touch a piece of the past in the roads we travel, so, too, there is more than a little myth. In other words, while Ohioans still use former Indian trails to travel around the state, they are not always exactly what we think they are. There are other parts of the Ohio story that have a similar propensity. The Underground Railroad was neither underground nor a railroad. Rather, it was a network of daring people, black and white, who helped runaway slaves escape to freedom in Canada in the years before the American Civil War. “Stations” on the Underground Railroad might be a barn, a sheltered ravine or even an occasional secret room in a local house. Today, many older houses in the area are offered for sale with the wistful suggestion that the place was “rumored” to be a stop on the Underground Railroad. Most of these places were no such thing. Running a station on the Underground Railroad was illegal and dangerous. Most people did not take the risk. But the legend persists. A similar sort of gloss covers the story of the Scioto Trail. Native American people had lived in Ohio for thousands of years before the arrival of European explorers only a few hundred years ago. The earliest residents of Ohio were few in number and generally lived their lives following the animal herds then living in the state. So the earliest trails were those made by the buffalo, deer and other animals. Eventually, the roaming stopped and more permanent towns were built. The people who built them constructed earthen monuments and enclosures and later came to be called the Moundbuilders. Central Ohio is rich in the remains of these prehistoric people, although we are not as rich as we once were. While a 40-foot

mound at the south end of what is now downtown Columbus is remembered by the name of Mound Street, the mound itself is long gone, as are many more around Ohio. All of these Moundbuilder villages were linked by trails, as well. Some are the same that will be used by later residents of the state. Many are not. Most of the major Indian trails that will be remembered and later marked as such date from the relatively recent history of the past few hundred years when English, French and later American colonial travelers came to Ohio and left a record of what they found. What would come to be called the Bullskin Trail, the Great Trail and the Scioto Trail were undoubtedly once animal trails before they began to be used by people. And these trails also quite probably changed in course and location with the passage of time. As early European settlers came to Ohio, they followed these same trails and made them their own. Eventually, they would become roads of greater or lesser permanence. Because downtown Columbus sits on a ridge and once had a large mound in its midst, it is easy to presume that what is now High Street must have been a major Indian trail. That is partly right. High Street was indeed an Indian trail, but it was not a major one. Indian trails in central Ohio generally seek high ground because it is dry and clear for much of the year. Until well into the 19th century, most Ohio rivers looked very different than they do today. They were generally wider and deeper and flanked on each side by large areas of low-

lying wetlands. They were hard places to travel through. Similarly, the high ridge on the east side of the Scioto was punctuated by deep ravines every mile or two. These ravines and their attendant creeks and wetlands made travel difficult as well. For these and other reasons, the Scioto Trail linking Lake Erie to the Ohio River skirted west of what is now downtown Columbus and traveled north following the ridge line separating the Scioto and Olentangy river valleys. That original route is not all that well-marked and certainly is not as well-traveled. In the years after the American Revolution, the smaller, lessused trail east of the Scioto came to be used more and more to link the villages of central Ohio. When a private company built the first major road to the Lake Erie towns, it came to be called the Columbus and Sandusky Turnpike. The turnpike was not very successful. Badly constructed and poorly maintained, the road was a sea of mud in the spring and impassable in the winter. And despite these problems, the road continued to charge a toll. When the company finally closed, many people were pleased. But the Columbus and Sandusky Turnpike demonstrated that the route was correct for a properly constructed road. It would take many years and a number of other challenges before U.S. Route 23 became that road. In all, it is the story of a road less-traveled becoming a path of choice of central Ohio.

Financial finesse

Don’t let thieves spoil your vacation First, it’s great that you are aware of the risks and are seeking ways to protect yourself before you become a victim. It’s much easier to take precautions now than have to restore your identity and reputation later. Being away from home and in unfamiliar places could bring increased risk to consumers, opening doors to thieves. More purchases than usual are made this time of the year, as well, so additional withdrawals might go unnoticed until you get back to home base. Your identity could be stolen in a number of ways, including loss or theft of your wallet, purse or credit card; stealing your mail or taking documents from your trash; skimming information from the magnetic strip on credit or debit cards; giving personal or financial information over the phone to strangers; or hacking into your computer. If you are catching up on paying bills or doing any online shopping while you are on vacation, be sure you are using secure web-

Education BMS announces Latin award winners Several Bexley Middle School students earned awards in the 2011 National Latin Exam given in March, according to Latin teacher Kathy Pautsch.

Also watch out for people hovering near you or using a camera phone. Being extra aware of your surroundings and always being organized also make you more focused and alert so you can spot potential problems. Keep receipts for all purchases and check the receipt against your credit card or other account statements to be sure it is accurate. Signs that indicate your identity has been stolen include unauthorized charges on your creditcard statement or on your checking account; unauthorized transfers or withdrawals on your bank statements; accounts on your credit report that you did not

If you become a victim of identity theft, contact the financial institutions or companies where the information has been used to alert them of the situation. Also contact the police and a creditreporting agency and request that they place a fraud alert on your account. Keep records of whom you talk to and summaries of conversations.

Track & Field

Welsh steps down as coach of Lions By PAUL BATTERSON ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Bexley High School athletics director Molly Feesler has begun the search for a track and field coach, as Doug Welsh recently resigned after coaching the boys and girls teams for two seasons. Welsh cited the desire to spend more time with his wife, Jill, and his twin daughters, Sara and Elizabeth, as the primary reason for his decision. “My girls are going to be 12. I missed

a few too many events of theirs this year,” Welsh said. “After 42 years of coaching, I’m ready to dial back just a touch.” Welsh had coached at Reynoldsburg and Van Wert high schools, Earlham College and Otterbein University before arriving at Bexley in fall 2009 to replace Eric Acton, who had resigned following the 2009 season. Welsh had coached the men’s and women’s teams at Otterbein for 18 years before stepping down after the 2009 season.

“Doug came here after a long run of success at Otterbein,” Feesler said. “He brought a sense of stability and a fresh set of eyes to the program. He did a great job for the program.” “After I retired from college coaching, I never thought I’d be a head coach again,” Welsh said. “I have been so lucky to coach the kids at Bexley. It’s been a great situation for me. I really enjoy the Bexley community and the Bexley parents. I can’t say enough to the support I got from the Bexley schools and the athletic department.”

This spring, the girls team placed third (111 points) in the MSL-Ohio Division meet May 10 and 13 at Heath, behind champion Granville (164) and Heath (136) and ahead of Columbus Academy (91), Licking Valley (53), Whitehall (48), Newark Catholic (32) and Lakewood (25). The Lions finished seventh (38) in the 26-team Division II district meet that concluded May 21 at Hamilton Township behind champion Hartley (111) and placed 12th (19) in the regional meet May 26 and 28 at Welcome Sta-

dium in Dayton behind champion Hartley (82) before scoring 12 points at the state meet June 3-4 at Ohio State to tie three other teams for 18th behind champion Hartley (47). At state, Charlotte Myers, a 2011 graduate, won the 400 meters in 55.87 seconds. She also teamed with fellow graduates Abby Fagin and Kendra Wilson and Regan Detwiler to place seventh in the 3,200 relay (9:27.86) and teamed with fellow graduate T.T. Siler, See TRACK, page B2

Club Soccer

Local teams set for regional By AARON BLANKENSHIP ThisWeek Community Newspapers

A central Ohio club soccer team has won a Midwest Regional Cup title each of the past two summers after local squads failed to do so the previous six years. The Blast F.C. Under-15 boys team won a Regional Cup in 2009, and the Crew Juniors U19 boys squad won regional and national championships last year. Heading into the 2011 Regional Cup tournament, which will be held Saturday through Wednesday, June 25-29, in Fox Cities, Wis., Crew Juniors U-19 boys coach Brian Bliss said he wouldn’t be surprised if a central Ohio squad won a regional championship for the third consecutive season. However, Bliss said it will be difficult for the five local boys teams and four local girls squads to win their age brackets regardless of their talent level. “Sometimes it’s more difficult to win the Regional Cup than the national tournament because you have to play five games in five days in the regional tournament and there’s very little room for error,” Bliss said. “A lot of people have forgotten, but we were three minutes away from being eliminated from pool play in the regional tournament last year before we rallied (for a 3-1 win over Everest Soccer Club) to reach the semifinals. A lot of teams have the talent and potential to win this tournament, but you need to make plays at the right time to get it done.” More than 270 preliminary games will be played as boys and girls U.S. Youth Soccer State Cup champions, select wildcards and Midwest Regional League qualifiers in the U-13 through U-19 age groups compete. All of the age groups have been divided into threeor four-team brackets, and every team will play a game within its bracket June 25, 26 and 27. The bracket winners will move on to semifinals June 28, with regional finals played June 29. Regional champions in the U14 through U-19 age groups will advance to the U.S. Youth Soccer Association National Championships on July 27-31 in Phoenix. Ohio Premier Eagles club director Chris King said teams need to do more than play well to win a Regional Cup. They also need some luck. “You have to play well and find a way to win against great competition, but a lot of this comes down to luck,” said King, who helped guide the Ohio Premier U-13 girls team to a re-

Bexley’s Jalen Robinette, who will be a senior, split time at quarterback last season with Alex Lemon. Robinette completed 40 of 75 passes for 403 yards and four touchdowns, had 23 receptions for 341 yards and a touchdown and rushed for 359 yards and three touchdowns.

Football

Previous injuries strengthen Bexley By PAUL BATTERSON ThisWeek Community Newspapers

At a glance

There were times last season when the offensive line for the Bexley High School football team seemed to be in constant flux given how many players received playing time because of injuries. Bexley finished 3-7 overall and 1-6 in the MSL-Ohio Division to place seventh, behind Licking Valley (7-0), Heath (61), Granville (5-2), Newark Catholic (4-3), Columbus Academy (3-4) and Whitehall (2-5), and ahead of Lakewood (0-7). “It was tough adjusting,” said left guard Gabe Sudai, who will be a senior this fall. “We had a lot of guys being thrown in there and they didn’t know the plays. It made for some confusion.” But Sudai and coach John Smith believe the offensive and defensive lines could be strengths for the Lions in the 2011 season. “We’ve been working out a lot, three days a week,” said Sudai, who made honorable

mention all-league last year. “I feel like we have more experience on the line this year and a lot more chemistry after having that one year together.” “We do have some experience

coming back and we will see how that translates this year,” Smith said. “This has been one of the best offseasons in regards to strength training. Our kids are putting themselves in posi-

tion to compete and be successful, but we will see how well that translates on Friday nights.” Bexley had a series of injuries last season, but Smith said the Lions adhered to a “next man

in” philosophy. The offensive and defensive lines weren’t the only positions where the Lions used multiple starters, and the openings allowed Smith to experiment with the lineup. Because of multiple injuries at running back, 2011 graduate Elijah Scott was moved from wide receiver to running back for the Lions’ lone league win, a 42-21 victory over Lakewood. In that contest, Scott rushed for a program-record 416 yards and scored six touchdowns on 31 carries. Other experiments, such as having senior Jalen Robinette and 2011 graduate Alex Lemon split time at quarterback, will not be repeated this season. See FOOTBALL, page B2

Cap City Senior Bowl

East all-stars hold on for victory over West By SCOTT GERFEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

To watch Grove City High School graduate Luke Smurthwaite scramble and make a play seemingly out of nothing, it looked like more was on the line than the outcome of an allstar football game. One of central Ohio’s top quarterbacks, Smurthwaite made sure his team didn’t lose without putting up a fight in the Cap City Senior Bowl on June 18 at Westerville Central. The Kent State recruit completed three of five passes for 36 yards during the West all-stars’ final drive, which ended at midfield with a fumble as time expired. A strong defensive effort led by Independence lineman Tim Dysart (Morehead State) helped the East allstars win 14-7. “It was really great to just be playing football again and getting the rust out of my system before I head off to college,” said Smurthwaite, who was named the West’s Offensive Player of the Game. “I’ve grown up scrambling around like that and I guess that’s why I’ve gotten good at it.” Smurthwaite, who passed for more than 2,300 yards last fall and played in the Ohio North-South All-Star Classic in April, didn’t have big numbers, but his abilities gave the West a chance to come back. It was no surprise to West coach Derek Katris, who coached Smurthwaite on junior varsity at Grove City. “Luke’s going to give you everything he’s got,” said Katris, who is

Emily Winnegard and Eva Jerkins to finish 14th in the 400 relay (50.43). The boys team had its first state qualifier since 2008, scoring four points at state to tie seven other teams for 53rd behind champion Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary (51). The Lions finished fourth (78) in the MSLOhio meet, behind Granville (162), Academy (108.5) and Heath (101), and ahead of Whitehall (75.5), Licking Valley (74), Newark Catholic (37) and Lakewood (25).

SOCCER The Ohio Premier Eagles U-18 girls squad qualified as a representative of the Midwest Regional League and the Team Ohio F.C. U-16 boys team qualified as a State Cup tournament wildcard. This will be the third appearance for the Team Ohio F.C. U-16 boys, Ohio Premier Eagles U16 girls, Ohio Premier Eagles U-18 girls and Ohio Premier Eagles U-19 girls, and the second appearance for the Team Ohio F.C. U-17 boys. “Any of us have a chance to win it,” Team Ohio F.C. club director Steve Dawson said. “If you have good coaching and have kids who stick together and play well together, you can compete at the regional level.”

gional championship in 2002. “In the closer games, you may need to have a few bounces or a referee’s call go your way. “The luck of the draw is another big factor because teams aren’t seeded at regional and there have been a lot of years where the top two or three teams in the regional end up in the same bracket of pool play, and some of the better teams get eliminated early on.” Local teams that won State Cup championships to advance to the Regional Cup are: the Classics Eagles U-13 boys, Team Ohio F.C. U-17 boys, Team Ohio F.C.

“We probably should have gone with just one quarterback and stuck with him,” Smith said. “We thought it was best for us at that time, but if we had to do it all over again, we probably would do that differently. This year, the quarterback we go with is going to be the guy we go with all year.” Robinette and some of the other expected returnees should give Bexley some speedy options next fall. In the Division II state track and field meet on June 4 at Ohio State, he and three football teammates — senior D.J. Jones, sophomore Rasheed Morgan and Scott — combined to place fifth in the 800-meter relay in 1 minute, 30.16 seconds. Last season, Robinette had 23 receptions for 341 yards and a touchdown, rushed for 359 yards and three touchdowns, and completed 40 of 75 passes for 403 yards and four touchdowns. “If we were handing batons off and ran around a track, I’d

feel very confident about things,” Smith said. “We still have to make the holes for those guys to run through and get the ball to them in space. Do we have some guys who can do something? Absolutely. But it’s our job to put them in the right position to be successful.” Bexley held a football camp for sophomores, juniors and seniors. The camp began June 20 and concludes Thursday, June 23. The Lions will compete in 7on-7 drills on July 21 at Hartley, July 22 at Logan and July 27 in a 10-team competition at Dublin Jerome. Also this summer, the players are working out in the weight room from 6 to 8 a.m. every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. “We’re just trying to change the culture of Bexley football,” Smith said. “That means making a commitment to the program and doing the things that they can do to make us better. “If they go out and give effort, they have a chance to get

The East also scored on its opening drive. Westerville South’s Jayshon Jackson (Grand Rapids Community College), the district’s Division I Offensive Player of the Year, capped the drive with a 2-yard touchdown run. “We really executed our offense in the first half, but I think we got a little bit too conservative in the second half,” said East coach Jeff Pharion, who is the head coach at St. Charles. “We kept it simple with schemes and blitzes defensively, and we executed very well.” The West only crossed midfield twice in the first half. Whetstone running back Jordan Mitchell (Urbana) made it 14-7 when he reversed field and scored on an 18yard run with 11:35 left in the fourth quarter. The Cap City game began as the City League All-Star game in 2008, but Anthony Murphy, one of the organizers in conjunction with Capcitypreps.com, wanted to get players throughout central Ohio involved. Players from the City, Central Catholic and Mid-State leagues and the OCC were added, with Interstate 71 as a dividing line. The name of the game was changed last summer, when the East beat the West 22-0. “Last year we had kids from Olentangy Orange becoming friends with kids who live on (Columbus’) west side in the ‘Bottoms’ and picking them up for practice,” Murphy said. “The guys really build relationships out of this and it goes deeper than football.”
