Grandview City Schools
Early start just one of new changes By ALAN FROMAN
ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The Grandview Heights City School District will open its 2011-12 school year on Wednesday, Aug. 17, with a number of changes, including that opening date, which falls six days earlier than in past years. The change in the school calendar will allow the district to give first semester exams to high school students before the winter break starts, Superintendent Ed O’Reilly said.
In past years, students were not able to take the exams until school resumed after the lengthy break, he said. The earlier start of the school year will also pro vide more time before state testing,including the fall administration of the third-grade reading achievement test and the Ohio Graduation Test, begins, O’Reilly said.
While students and their families have had to adjust to an earlier start to the school year, it has also meant there is less time than usual for the district to complete summer clean-up, maintenance and other preparatory work in the school buildings, he said. It also means the Oakland Avenue rehabilitation project may not be completely finished by the time school be gins next week. “My understanding is there will be some pavement down (on Oakland) and we will have access to all the Oakland
Avenue parking lots,” O’Reilly said. “There will be part of the time when one or another of the parking lots may be temporarily closed.” Students should have easy access to the schools on OaklandAvenue, he said. Because of retirements and resignations, the district will have 14 new staff members this year, including three new administrators. “That is a significant change when you have basically one-third of your administrative team turning over,” O’Reilly said. The new administrators are high school
principal Dawn Sayre, athletics director James Hall and pupil services director Nancy Schott. Other new staff members include Shannon Crackel and Sara Karl, Edison Intermediate/Middle School intervention specialists; Caitlin Craig, Stevenson Elementary intervention specialist; seventhgrade math teacher Rachel Figliomeni; Carolyn White, Spanish and French teacher at Edison and the high school; kindergarten teachers Sarah Hoepf and See SCHOOL, page A2

Pool memberships, daily admissions up fr om 2010 By ALAN FROMAN
ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Perhaps not surprisingly, considering this summer’s heat, the Grandview Heights Municipal Pool has seen an increase of season memberships and daily admissions during the 2011 season. “In terms of dollars,we’ve seen our season passes for the pool increase by $5,000 over last year, as of July 12, which is the latest data we have,” said Sean Robey, parks and recreation director. That represents a 6.3-percent increase over 2010, he said. “We actually have had a few more pass-
es sold since we started a half price sale after July 15,” Robey said. The receipts from daily admissions was up by about $4,000 over last year as of July 12, he said. “We had some big attendance days through July, but attendance has dropped a bit so far in August, which is typical,” Robey said. “I think football practice,band camp, family vacations and maybe a bit of burn-out after two and a half months at the pool play a part in that.” The atmosphere at the pool has “been really fun this year,” pool manager Ryan Horn said. “I think people really appreciate what a great community resource they
have with the pool. People really enjoy the pool.” A staff of 25 lifeguards, including himself, means there are always at least seven lifeguards on duty at the pool, Horn said. “We’re able to have five lifeguards in the chairs and two on the ground at all times, which is really good,” he said. “Fortunately, we haven’t had any major problems this year.” The repairs made to the pool over the off season, including the replacement of the pumps and motors, have held up throughout the summer, Robey said. See POOL, page A3
Grandview Heights City Council member Steve Von Jasinski will be running for mayor in November against incumbent Ray DeGraw. “I’m in the process of collecting signatures and I expect to have that done and turned in later this week,” Von Jasinski said Monday. Von Jasinski has served the last eight years and a previous fouryear term on council, but had already announced he would not be running for re-election to the council. He has decided to run for mayor “because I think we are at a point where we need a change in the administration of our city,” Von Jasinski said. “We have had two income tax increases in the last eight years, yet we are still running a b udget deficit,” he said. “We are in essence in the same place we were in back in 2003 when Big Bear left.” The city cannot continue to ask residents for increases in taxes, Von Jasinski said. “We have to maintain our city services within our current revenue stream,” he said. If elected,Von Jasinski said,he will present to council a plan to do just that within six months,although he provided no specifics about what the plan would include.
“We need to find better , more efficient ways to do things in the city,” he said. One possibility is finding Steve ways to share Von Jasinski services with other communities, Von Jasinski said, noting his participation in meetings with representatives from other communities on that topic. His 20 years spent managing acquisition companies in the building industry gives him the experience to determine how that can be done, Von Jasinski said. In that role, he would examine a troubled company’s operations and determine how best to turn the firm around, he said. “In 20 years, every company I reviewed had more employees when I was finished than when I started,” Von Jasinski said. “I can apply the same skills to the city’s operations.” DeGraw said the city is indeed facing continuing tough economic times, especially given the loss of up to $600,000 in state funding over the next few years. “You’re looking at a potential 5- or 6-percent reduction in our budget revenue (from the state See CANDIDATES, page A3
New Trinity principal making return to Grandview community By ALAN FROMAN
ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Four decades after he graduated from Our Lady of Victory Catholic School,Jim Silcott has returned to the Tri-Village area, this time as the new principal at Trinity Catholic School. “When OLV’s school closed,it was absorbed into Trinity, so in a sense,I’ve returned to my old school,” Silcott said. “Grandview’s a great community and I’m excited about being here.” Silcott began his new post at Trinity after spending the past four years as president and principal at Fisher Catholic High School in Lancaster. “I enjoyed working at the high school level, but when this opportunity came up, I couldn’t pass it up,” he said. “Two of my three children live in the Columbus area and my parents live here. And I’ve known my boss (St. Christopher Church pastor) John Cody for many years. “I’m looking forward to working in a small school,” Silcott said. “My goal is to know everybody’s name, all the students,by the middle of September. I think it’s important to have that kind of personal relationship with students where you know them by
name.” Silcott has been an educator for 33 years, 30 of them working in the Columbus Diocese. “We all need to develop our spirituality. I think that’s an important part of a child’s education,” he said. “It’s not that public schools can’t do it, and I would never say anything negative about our public schools, but they have to do it separately. We can put it all together in Catholic schools.” It was one of his teachers at St. Charles Preparatory School, an English teacher named Mike Gilligan, who inspired him to become a teacher, Silcott said. “He was the smartest man I’d ever known,” he said. “I wanted to be like him, so I decided to become a teacher.” While he enjoyed his own time as an English teacher, Silcott said he has found being an administrator even more rewarding because it allows him to assist and influence a greater number of youngsters in a greater variety of ways. “A big part of being a principal is problem-solving, and I really enjoy that aspect of the job,” he said.

OLV to hold 10th School year to start earlier in 2011-12 annual festival Aug. 19-20 Continued from page A1
By ALAN FROMAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Our Lady of Victory Catholic Church will hold its 10th annual church festival Aug. 19-20. “It’s a very family-friendly festival, where people can come and have a good time with their families and neighbors,” said John Drake, who is co-chairing this year’s festival with Jesse Oddi. “Other churches have gambling and card games for the adults, but we de-emphasize that,” Drake said. “Our event is a fundraiser, it does raise funds, but the main idea is to provide a good family outing for people in our community,” he said. The festival will run from 5 to 11 p.m. Aug. 19 and 6 to 11 p.m. Aug. 20. “Food is probably one of the main things that draws people to our festival,” Drake said. “We serve really good festival food at good prices.” The opening night will feature the annual fish fry, he said. “OLV is pretty well known for our fish fry,” Drake said. “On Saturday night, we feature an Italian spaghetti dinner and Italian sausage baked by our pastor (Monsignor Romano Ciotola).” Other festival staples, including sandwiches, hot dogs, french
fries, beer and wine, will be sold throughout the weekend, he said. Once again, Ciotola and his family will provide one of the most sought-after items in the silent auction held throughout the festival. “The Ciotola family owns a number of fine restaurants and you can bid on a chance to win a sevencourse Italian dinner prepared by the Ciotola family and served in our pastor’s home,” Drake said. Other items featured in the silent auction will include vacation packages, condominium stays and gift baskets, he said. Bids in the silent auction will be accepted until 9 p.m. Aug. 20. A number of games, including wheel games and others allowing participants to show off their talents and skills, will be featured at the festival, as will several rides for youngsters, Drake said. Live entertainment will also be offered both nights. About 300 volunteers are needed to operate each year’s festival, he said. “We’re always looking for volunteers. We can never have enough,” Drake said. “We have kids from age 9 on up helping out at the festival.” Anyone interested in volunteering should contact coordinator Nancy Tarini at 777-8156 or email at nst1957@gmail.com.
Heather Miller; occupational therapist Sarah Louters; Elizabeth McClellan, Edison support staff specialist; fifth-grade language arts teacher Melissa Sylvester; and sixth-grade math teacher Nicole Wainscott. The sixth-grade class will now be included as part of the sixth-, seventh- and eighthgrade middle school program at Edison, O’Reilly said. In previous years, the grade was included in the intermediate level with the fourth and fifth grades, he said. Since sixth-graders change classes and have multiple teachers during the day, like seventh-

and eighth-graders, it made more sense to just formally include them as part of the middle school program, O’Reilly said. The sixth-grade scores on the state achievement test will now be included as part of the middle school’s results on the state report card, he said. A number of new courses have been added this year at the high school, O’Reilly said. The new offerings include strength and conditioning,Advanced Placement European history and chemistry, career connections, film studies, personal finance and calculus extension. Students will see a change in what’s on the menu for school lunches as the district moves
to meet new federal and state guidelines requiring healthier choices, O’Reilly said. “Some of the things that students like to have on the menu, especially the a la carte menu, will no longer be offered,” he said. “There will also be changes in the kind of beverages we offer.” The district will also soon have an enhanced system for sending messages, announcements and information to parents, O’Reilly said. Parents will have more options on how to receive information from the district, including texting, voicemail and email, he said. The enhanced system should be up and running sometime next month, O’Reilly said. www.ThisWeekNews.com

SILCOTT Continued from page A1 Trinity is a strong school with good support from its parents, staff and community, Silcott said. There will be some new things he will initiate when Trinity’s school year begins on Aug. 24. When weather permits, the school day will begin with the entire student body gathering outside for a short morning prayer, Silcott said. A student council for students in grades 6-8 will also be created, he said. So far, Silcott estimates, he has had a chance to meet about onethird of Trinity’s students. A Meet the Principal reception
will be held from 7 to 8 p.m. Aug. 16 at the school. The Grandview community has changed a lot from his days at Our Lady of Victory School, Silcott said. “It’s a ‘hotter’community with all the shops, restaurants and the Grandview Yard,” he said. “It was just a small neighborhood back in those days. It’s still a wonderful community. “I think back to all the good times I had at the Wyandotte Pharmacy, which was our big hangout,” Silcott said. “You could get a hamburger for 30 cents. “The pharmacy’s long gone now, and so are those kind of prices.”

8th annual Mayor’s Cookout set for Sunday By ALAN FROMAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The eighth annual Mayor’s Cookout will be held from 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 14, at Wyman Woods. “It’s a fun day and a chance to meet your neighbors in a different type of setting,� Mayor Ray DeGraw said. “I just hope we get a break in the weather and it’s not oppressively hot,� he said. DeGraw credits his wife for
coming up with the idea for the cookout. “It’s a way to say thank you to the community,� Ray DeGraw he said. The mayor will again be helping to grill hot dogs at the cookout, which will also feature dessert items such as cookies and brownies and root beer floats.
cuts),� he said. The city has made tough decisions on reducing the budget “while maintaining and improving the services our community appreciates and expects,� DeGraw said. “We have a very good management team in place, a management team that has been there before and knows what is needed. “We’re having to make decisions about city finances right now,� he added. “We can’t afford to wait until the next mayor is elected. “If (Von Jasinski) has some ideas, bring it to the table now,� DeGraw said. “We need to have those ideas now, not later.� Von Jasinski said that four years ago, he was among those who encouraged and supported DeGraw’s run for a second term as mayor. “I wrote a letter to the editor encouraging him to run because I thought he had the attributes we needed for the upcoming four years, more than any other potential candidate, including myself,� Von Jasinski said. “But I think my experience and attributes are more appropriate for the next four years� to help make sure the city can balance its budget without new taxes. The city cannot raise income taxes again, so he agrees that is not an answer, DeGraw said, and he does not believe the city should
seek to increase property taxes, which are used by the school district to help fund its operations. The administration is continuing to work on ways to maintain the level of city services without increasing the taxpayers’burden, he said. Von Jasinski said he continues to oppose council’s approval last December of an ordinance that gradually increases the mayor’s salary from $22,000 to $36,000 by Jan. 1, 2015. “I think it’s ludicrous to give a

At least 500 to 600 hot dogs were served at last year’s cookout, DeGraw said. “We have a lot of people who look forward to this event each year and we always get some new people, too,� he said. The day’s entertainment schedule will include the Jollysteppers at 1:15 p.m., Lydia Brownfield at 2 p.m., and The Professors from 3 to 5 p.m. Because of limited parking, people are being asked to walk to the cookout.

63-percent pay increase for a parttime position that we ask for,� he said. “How can we approve a 63percent increase in the mayor’s salary when we’re pleading poverty to (the police and fire) unions during negotiations?� If elected, he will pay the tax on the mayor’s salary, but refund the remaining amount to the city, Von Jasinski said. DeGraw declined to respond to Von Jasinski’s comments regarding the council-approved salary increase.
Last year, the pump failure forced the pool to close for eight days in June and again on Labor Day, the last day of the season. “Knock wood, it looks like we’re going to make it all right through the season,� Robey said. “We’ve never had a situation like we did last year.� Residents have been pleased with the addition of more shade umbrellas and chaise lounges, Horn said. “People are asking if we can add even more next year,� he said. “It makes it more pleasant to visit the pool.� The pool is a great place to work, because of all the pleasure it gives to the community, Horn said. “It’s always fun to come to work here,� he said. “Ryan and his staff have done an outstanding job,� Robey said. “It’s been a great season, but where has the time gone? It’s hard to believe we’ve got (a little more than three weeks) to go.� afroman@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

Grandview Heights City Schools will start the 2011-12 school year next week. This photograph was taken at the start of the school year in 1955, and shows Edison Elementary students and their teacher, Mrs. Murray, examining new textbooks. The books are titled “Magic Carpet” and presumed to be individual textbooks since each student has his or her own copy. Good nutrition was also emphasized as indicated by the “Guide to Good Eating” posted on the bulletin board in the background. Harriet Gill is the only student identified. She is in the front row to the right of the teacher.
Police reports Grandview police • A Columbus man was arrested Aug. 7 and charged with expired license plates, driving under suspension and no operator’s license. • While on patrol Aug. 6, an officer discovered a rear garage door of a business in the 1100 block of West Goodale Boulevard was open after closing hours.

Race for postseason begins opening week By JARROD ULREY ThisWeek Community Newspapers
A little more than two weeks remain before the first official snaps are taken on central Ohio high school football fields. For traditional playoff contenders, the first regular-season game begins a journey that includes the expectation that it might take a dozen games or more before true satisfaction comes. The teams in the middle, meanwhile, enter the season with a different kind of anxiousness.
One team from Division I, Region 3 — Lancaster — went 7-3 and failed to make the playoffs last year. There were seven other teams in the region that went 5-5 or 6-4 and had their seasons end before the postseason. For programs such as Gahanna and Upper Arlington where long playoff runs have come in the recent past, the need to move back into the postseason race is one that can be a consuming desire. Gahanna has missed the playoffs the past three seasons after qualifying for the postseason five of the previous
seven seasons. Upper Arlington has missed the postseason the past two years after making the playoffs nine of the previous 12 years. The Golden Bears won the Division I state title in 2000. “Obviously, winning football teams are expected at Gahanna Lincoln,” Lions coach John Snoad said. “We’ve been a .500 team, and that’s not acceptable in our community. They understand there’s a great tradition with great playoff teams. Last year, we were literally three points away from being 7-3 and the eighth seed.
“A good team has good discipline. The key here is if we take care of business in key plays. Those are the things that separate the fine line between being 5-5 and being 7-3 or 8-2. We have some tremendous talent, and now we have to work very hard to get strong in the weight room and get out and be disciplined.” Others in Region 3 left on the outside a year ago when each went 6-4 were Pickerington North, Groveport, Olentangy Liberty and Mount Vernon. One school in particular that hopes failing to make the postseason won’t
become a habit is Liberty, which had made six consecutive postseason appearances before last season. Olentangy, Dublin Jerome, Dublin Scioto, Olentangy Orange and Watkins Memorial all were 6-4 but were left on the outside of the Division II, Region 7 playoffs a year ago. Among the others hoping to be breakout teams this year are Granville and Licking Heights, both of which went 7-3 last year but failed to make the Division III, Region 11 playoffs.

Commentary
Athletes admire, inspired by heroes There are youngsters in central Ohio who want to develop into the athlete and person that the high school students writing in my summer series are today. These bowlers, football players, golfers, soccer players, track athletes and wrestlers are held in the highest LARRY esteem by LARSON younger athletes who know their accomplishments. So, who are the heroes for these role models? Let’s find out. Jimmy Gammill, New Albany, football: “I admire (NFL quarterback) Tim Tebow because he is a Christian athlete and strong in his faith. He never let anybody tell him he couldn’t achieve what he wanted to and he worked hard to get what he wanted.” Jake Blankenship, Gahanna, pole vault: “My hero is (pole vaulter) Tim Mack. I have met him a couple of times and he has been someone who I have admired for a while. I like the way he jumps and the way he teaches.” Michela Paradiso, Upper Arlington, soccer and basketball: “My biggest role model is my older sister, Domini. She is a great human being who has great morals and is always willing to help others and myself. I love her so much and she has helped me get through some truly tough times.” Austin Cuervo, St. Charles, golf: “My role model is my father because he is a very dedicated man and has always been my idol.” Chase Delande, Hilliard Davidson, football and wrestling: “My hero is my father, Dave Delande. He is always there for me, gives me great advice as well as good coaching tips.” Mary Wells, Westerville Central, bowling: “My top hero or role model is (professional bowler) Kelly Kulick because she was the first woman to win the USBC Tournament of Champions.” Faith Washington, Reynoldsburg, track: “My best hero? This year I don’t have a best. So many people have been the light when I needed one with encouragement and support. They all are like family in shining armor.” Napoleon Bell, Hartley, football and wrestling: “My hero is God. It is sacrifice and love for others that can be translated into the love you must have for your teammates and the selflessness you must have on the field.” Morgan Ransom, Columbus Academy, golf: “My grandparents are my heroes. They have always supported me in golf and in life and I have

Avery made third-team all-state his senior season as he averaged 18.9 points, 8.6 rebounds and 4.2 assists.

Perhaps his greatest feat at state occurred in 1998, as he lived up to his own high expectations in many aspects, winning the long jump (23 feet, 1 inch) on the first day of competition and coming back on day two with titles in the 110-meter hurdles (13.95 seconds) and 300 hurdles (37.1). He also placed seventh in the 200. The three titles he won that weekend gave North 30 points and a cochampionship in Division I with Brunswick. In 1999, he defended his titles in the 110 hurdles (13.7) and 300 hurdles (36.46).

Canal Winchester to leave MSL for OCC in ’13 By BRAD EMERINE ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Canal Winchester High School is expected to be approved as a new member of the Ohio Capital Conference when the Executive Committee of Principals meets on Sept. 19. Canal Winchester would replace Watkins Memorial in the 32-team league beginning with the 2013-14 school year. Watkins Memorial is joining the new Licking County League, which will begin operations that same school year. “This is an exciting time for us and a big change after being a member of the See LARSON, page A6 Mid-State League since 1966,” Canal Win-
chester athletics director Kent Riggs said. “We were comfortable and had great relationships in the MSL. “One of the biggest factors in our switch is that we are one of only two (schools) in the MSL that compete in Division I in most sports. If we’re going to compete in Division I in the postseason tournaments, it would be to our benefit to play Division I schools during the regular seasons.” The OCC Alignment and Expansion Committee made its recommendation after researching and visiting roughly a dozen schools that filed applications. According to OCC Commissioner Dave Cecutti, in addition to Canal Winches-
ter, among those to apply were MSL members Bexley, Grandview, Teays Valley and Whitehall, as well as Chillicothe, Marion Harding, Jonathan Alder and Logan. “I applaud the Alignment and Expansion Committee for their work the past six to eight months, and it was a tough process,” Cecutti said. “They jumped hurdles and conducted studies to determine which school would fit best. “When we received all those applications, it also became apparent that we should take a look at a possible fifth division within our league. We’ll continue to look at that and it might be some-
thing we need to look at again somewhere down the road.” Canal Winchester will become the first new member of the OCC since Hilliard Bradley opened in 2008-09. Canal Winchester offers 25 sports, one of several criteria that the OCC noted. “There was no one factor any more important than another, but rather the totality of items that led the committee to recommend Canal Winchester,” Cecutti said. “We believe that academic integrity, competitive balance and cultural compatibility all played a factor.

Ohio Dragons capture 18U World Series title By BRAD EMERINE
ThisWeek Community Newspapers
In early July, the Ohio Dragons 18-and-under fastpitch travel softball team wasn’t sure if it was going to follow up on a trip it had earned in mid-June. “We qualified for the USSSA Eastern Regional World Series in the second week of June by finishing second in a qualif ier in Beavercreek,” coach Ken Seidel said. “But we reached a point where we talked about not going because we weren’t playing to our ability and it could be a waste of time and money.” The team started to play better, however, and made the decision to compete in the World Series, which was July 25-30 in Salisbury, Md. The Dragons had a 17-18 record before leaving but went 7-1-1 to win the double-elimination tournament, which featured 27 teams from seven states. “The girls went crazy on the field when it was over,” said Seidel, who was assisted by Warren Shoff. “It was a special moment for us. We stayed the night (July 30) after we won and I woke up the next morning wondering if it was all a dream. But then I looked over and saw the trophy. “(The championship) proved
what we knew all along, that the team we had was capable of big things if they played to their abilities. I’m not sure the girls knew it or believed it, but we could tell that if they put it all together, this was a special group.” Even more special is that everyone on the roster is eligible to return next season. “In about one month, we went from underachieving and wondering what will happen ne xt year to now, where all the girls are excited and wanted the season to continue,” Seidel said. The team w as comprised of four graduates, seven seniors and one junior representing six high schools. Graduates on the roster were Katy Bender, Amanda Jones and Kaylee Shoff of Pickerington Central and Skyle Dorsey of Central Crossing. Gahanna was represented by seniors Tanya Busby, Kate Hann and Sarah Seidel and junior Sara Nelson, with Westerville North seniors Sami Dustman and Alli Rowland, Westerville South senior Lindsey Gerhart and Upper Arlington senior Stephanie Turner rounding out the roster. The Dragons defeated the Churchville (Md.) Lightning 10 in the winners’ bracket final on July 30 to reach the champi-
onship. They scored the lone run in the top of the seventh inning on consecutive two-out singles by Rowland, Jones and Hann. Churchville then beat Delaware Diamond Gold 4-3 to earn a rematch with the Dragons later that day. In the rematch, the Dragons scored three runs in the bottom of the first inning on singles by Dustman and Seidel, two errors, a wild pitch and a f ielder’s choice. Seidel’s single drove in two runs. Rowland pitched for the Dragons and allowed a run in both the fourth and fifth, but she retired Churchville in order in the sixth and seventh as Ohio held on for a 3-2 win. “I think Alli Rowland pitched all but four innings and she was strong,” coach Seidel said. “We also had some great outfield play, especially Tanya Busby. We added her before the tournament and she solidified our outfield. Sara Nelson also made some terrific plays at third base throughout the tournament.” Dustman was named tournament Most Valuable Player and Rowland was selected Most Outstanding Pitcher.
•NEW LEADERS — There were several coaching changes among central Ohio’s programs during the offseason, and three of them ha ve ne w coaches named White. Buddy White has taken over Reynoldsburg’s program after previously serving as an assistant with the Raiders. Last year , he was an assistant at Hartle y, which won the Division IV state championship. Trevor White is Brookhaven’s new coach. He is a former Bearcats and Marion-Franklin assistant who will try to return Brookhaven to its past success after a 5-5 season last fall. “I was pretty familiar with a lot of the guys and we’ve been working with a lot of them since January,” Trevor White said. “It’s exciting to do football pretty soon. Everybody really wants to move forward, and I’m pretty excited for the seniors.” The other ne w “White” is Westland’s Steve White, who is a former Grove City assistant. “As a first-year coach, it’s a chance to finally get a stamp on things,” Steve White said. “I’ve worked for three different guys and this is a chance to do some things from my own standpoint.” Other new coaches in central Ohio include Lewis Carter at Columbus East, Shawn Hinkle at Canal Winchester, Mike LoParo at Hilliard Bradley, Tom Roberts at Northridge and Zebb Schroeder at Delaware.
Jim Collis will be coaching Columbus Academy after coach Mark Barren died June 9 following a heart attack. Collis coached the Vikings from 19962006, and they won the Division V state title in 2003. •SWITCHING DIVISIONS — Several central Ohio teams have changed divisions for the 2011 and 2012 seasons. Moving up from Division II to Division I are Bradle y, Scioto, Jerome, Olentangy, Orange and St. Charles. Columbus West, Franklin Heights, Mount Vernon, Northland and Worthington Kilbourne dropped from Division I to Division II. Licking Heights moved up from Division III to Division II, while Centennial and Independence both dropped from Division II to Division III. Fairfield Union and Jonathan Alder moved up from Division IV to Division III, Ready and Northridge moved up to Di vision IV from Di vision V and Madison Plains switches from Division IV to Division V. Africentric dropped from Division V to Division VI. •ALREADY VERBALLY COMMITTED — The first member of the 2012 recruiting class from central Ohio to v erbally commit to a Division I college was Olentangy linebacker Joshua Perry with Ohio State. Since Perry made his commitment in June 2010, the Buckeyes have added DeSales running back Warren Ball, Pickerington Central offensive line-

With Davidson trailing 35-28 in the second overtime, Delande took the handoff from Dietz on first down at the Mentor 10-yard line and fumbled at the 6. Mentor’ s Danny Kelley appeared to recover the ball at the 1, but the ball squirted loose and Davidson lineman Mike Saul recovered it at the 3. Delande scored on the ne xt play, making it 35-34. Then, during a pair of timeouts by the Wildcats, kicker Colby Catlett ran on and then off the f ield. Catlett actually w as lined up for the extra-point attempt that coach Brian White later admitted w ould have been a f ake before the second timeout w as called. After the second timeout, White opted to put his offense on the field and give the ball to Delande. “None of us coaches had any idea during the course of the game that Bo had scored one,two, three, four or five touchdowns,” White said. “It’s not like we purposely were trying to get him to score touchdowns. We were running our offense. The thing that gets lost a little bit — and I believe Bo would be the first to admit this — is the offensive line we had that year was pretty special.” A preferred w alk-on at Ohio State in 2007 who is preparing for his senior season with the Buckeyes, Delande finished the 2006 season with a program-record 2,208 yards rushing and 23 touchdowns on 398 carries. He w as named first-team all-OCC-Buckeye Division and alldistrict and special mention all-state. “Bo has been a huge part of our offense this year,” White said during the 2006 season. “He isn’t necessarily the fastest kid on the field.

He gets positive yardage.” Davidson rushed for 345 yards on 72 carries against Mentor, outmatching the Cardinals’ nohuddle offense that passed for 327 yards. “That had to be the most ridiculous ending to a game, let alone a season, that I can remember,” said Dietz, who is entering his senior year at the U.S. Air Force Academy. “Everything fell into place.” “It was a pretty special night for e verybody in Hilliard,” White said. “It w as one of those things that you never expect to happen and when it happens I don’t know if you really know how to react to it. Everybody tells you enjoy the moment, but at that time you’ re so concentrated on what you’re trying to accomplish, I don’t know that you can really enjo y it. We’ve certainly looked back upon it with some fond memories since then.” Delande, who had rushed for 1,304 and nine touchdowns as a junior at Davidson, is the oldest of three brothers who have excelled athletically for the Wildcats. Spencer Delande w as a k ey member of the football team when it won the 2009 state championship by defeating Cleveland Glenville 1615 in the Division I final.
