Council overturns demolition ruling By JEFF DONAHUE ThisWeek Community Newspapers

After thousands of words of testimony during three Board of Zoning Appeals meetings and a special appeal before Bexley City Council, the decision to permit the demolition of a Bryden Road home came down to a simple Latin phrase. De novo. It means to begin anew or from the beginning. When Bexley city attorney Lou Chodosh announced the appeal before city council July 26 would be a de novo proceeding, it meant that none of the hours of testimony that had been heard by the BZA

would be considered by city council. That decision ended up having a major impact on the case. Moshe Frank, the owner of the Bryden Road home, came prepared with expert witnesses, including the architect who designed the new home planned for the site and a structural engineer. Frank’s argument was that renovating the home would create a substantial financial hardship compared to the cost of replacing it and that the home had no historical, architectural or cultural significance that would prevent it from being demolished. Frank said the cost of renovating the home could top $800,000, whereas the total cost of a new home on the site, including the cost of the lot, would be

closer to $600,000. Neighbors opposed to the demolition of the home initially challenged city council’s authority to hear the appeal. When that approach wasn’t successful, they argued that the home was worth renovating and that the new home was not as appropriate for the neighborhood as the existing structure. After a total of three and one-half hours of testimony and 30 minutes of closed-door deliberations by city council, Chodosh polled each council member individually and all six members agreed to overturn the BZA decision and permit the demolition of the home. No council member explained his vote after Cho-

dosh advised them not to speak publicly on the issue because of the possibility of future legal action on the case. “I have told council not to discuss this matter with anybody,” Chodosh said. “Council is under my orders to discuss this with nobody — neighbors, the applicant, Bexley residents, nonresidents. It doesn’t make any difference. We think that one way or another there may be further litigation on this.” Frank said the council decision was the right one and that the BZA had been biased against his application.

Income-tax increase headed for Nov. 8 ballot By JEFF DONAHUE ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Bexley City Council wrapped up its summer session July 26 by putting the finishing touches on ballot language for a proposed increase in the city income tax. Prior to beginning their annual August recess, council members unanimously approved ballot language to be forwarded to the Franklin County Board of Elections, requesting an increase from 2.0 to 2.5 percent in the municipal income tax. After spending the first six months of 2011 examining financial projections, council members concluded that it would take

a combination of cost reductions and increased tax revenues to overcome significant budget shortfalls over the next five years. Voters will be asked to approve a 0.5percentage-points increase in the municipal income tax, with a 65 percent credit for residents who live in the city but work and pay income taxes in other communities. That move would help the city collect more taxes than a straight tax increase with the existing 80percent tax credit for Bexley residents who work in and pay taxes to another municipality. For example, a Bexley resident who makes $100,000 a year working in Columbus would pay $875 a year to the city of

Two members of the Bexley Board of Zoning Appeals/Architectural Review Board (BZA/ARB) have submitted their resignations following city council’s recent reversal of a BZA decision. Both Joe Kuspan and Tom Lewis referred to the decision in their letters of resignation to Mayor John Brennan. On July 26, city council members voted 6-0 to overturn a BZA decision that denied a request to demolish a home at 2325 Bryden Road and replace it with a new structure. The BZA had previously denied the request 5-2. “It is with a profound sense of sadness and frustration that I submit my resignation from the Board of Zoning Appeals and Architectural Review Board,” Kuspan wrote. “I have worked for nearly a decade to make Bexley a better place to live as a member of this board, as well as serving briefly on the Main Street Redevelopment Commission. I am proud of my work in helping the people of our community improve their properties and have always strived to be more of an advisor than policeman when it came to my role on the BZA/ARB. While that pride is certainly wounded, my love for Bexley is undiminished. “The action taken by city council last Tuesday was for me a unanimous vote of no confidence in the ability of the members of the board to carry out the intentions of the ordinances and regulations set forth by city council. While I certainly feel that I acted without the slightest trace of bias toward the applicants and

believe I have professional ability and personal experience to properly assess the worthiness of any proposal, particularly a demolition, this would appear to be an opinion not shared by the elected officials of the city. Historic preservation is a deeply held passion of mine, and is a key component of my personal philosophy. I do not believe this house has to be demolished.” Kuspan did not rule out a return to the board in the future. “Should the composition of city council change and be more favorable to my viewpoint, I would be eager to again serve my city,” he said. Lewis also referred to the council decision in his letter of resignation to Brennan. “One of my humblest moments was when the honorable Mayor (David) Madison had the respect and confidence to appoint me to the BZA/ARB,” he wrote. “Thank you for enabling me to continue my service when you became mayor. “This note will serve as my resignation from the Board of Zoning and Appeals/Design Review.

Do-it-yourself workshops aim to help owners of older homes By KEVIN PARKS

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Nothing w ants to remain a house for long. Wood rots. Foundations subside. Paint peels. Metal rusts. Shingles slide. Lots and lots of other unpleasant and potentially e xpensive things can go wrong with the parts and pieces of a house. At the half-century mark,even the best-built home is going to show its age and require some tender loving care. Because much of the local housing stock falls into that category or is e ven considerably older, the Columbus Landmarks Foundation has embarked on a local preservation initiative. The next in a series of “Old House DIY Workshops 2011” will take place on Saturday, Aug. 13, at the Community Properties of Ohio Training Facility, 933 E. Gay St. For $5, owners of older homes may attend a session from 9 to 11 a.m. to find out how to identify and resolve common maintenance issues. The fee for a session on wood restoration that afternoon from 1 to 5 costs $10. During the latter hands-on workshop, attendees will learn how to stabilize rotted wood, use wood consolidants and epoxies and prepare re-

stored wood for painting. The workshops, titled “Nuts and Bolts: the Basics of Home Maintenance,” are being put on with funding received from the United Way of Central Ohio and the National Trust for Historic Preservation, according Columbus Landmarks Foundation executive director Kathy Mast Kane. “The premise being that if we, as owners, learned to do this routine maintenance and inspection, we prevent major expenses down the road and make home ownership more attractive,” Kane said last week. Nathalie Wright, a field representative for both the Columbus Landmarks Foundation and National Trust for Historic Preservation, is providing staffing for the initiative. The term “older homes” is loosely defined, according to Kane, but it generally refers to ones that are approaching 50 or possibly well beyond. That covers a lot of territory in neighborhoods such as Clintonville and in many of Northland’s subdivisions, Kane pointed out. “There are a lot of ranch subdivisions and they are approaching that 50-year mark,” Kane said. “Maybe the message is for residents in those neighborhoods — they may not be thinking of their

homes as ‘older’ but truly, they are approaching a 50th birthday or are just past it. “It doesn’t have to be a turnof-the-century home for this to be applicable.” A home doesn’t even necessarily have to be very old at all, the foundation executive director said. “The truth of the matter is,I believe these workshops would have pertinent content for owners of any home,” Kane said. Funding from the United Way and the National Trust helps hold down the costs of putting on the workshops so as many people as possible can and will attend. With luck, Kane said, this will lead to houses getting the attention they need and being preserved because they are well worth the effort. The workshops encourage participants, whether tackling repair and restoration projects themselves or hiring someone,to bring that same attention to craftsmanship, rather than just doing something cosmetic, she added. The presentations include pointers on finding the right contractor. Space is limited for the Aug. 13 workshops and early registration is encouraged.

Commentary and opinion

OPEN SUNDAY Aug 7th • 2 - 4 PM 86 S. CASSADY, BEXLEY

(From left) Maddie Marsh, Riley Hayden and Grace Maley.

Bexley students involved in international peace group We are involved in CISV, an International peace organization. Every month there is a junior branch event, such as a minicamp, cookie-a-thon, or scavenger hunt. The first international summer activity that CISV participants can attend is Village, which is a month long camp where you meet four kids from eleven other countries. You participate in Village as a delegate when you are 11 years old. You can be involved in Interchange at ages 12-15, depending on what the chapter is doing. Interchange is a five-week experience in which you stay with another student your age and their family in a different country for two and a half weeks. During those weeks, you also engage in group activities and a mini-camp as well as the dayto-day activities of your host family. When you come home from Interchange, there are a few days to rest and prepare for the arrival of your ne w foreign friends. They stay with you for the same amount of time and have group activities, another mini-camp and experience life in your family. For our interchange, we flew over the Atlantic Ocean to Padua, Italy, near Venice. We stayed with the Padua Chapter. Our interchange pairs were Cameron Hall and Marco Forza; Riley Hayden and Matteo Merlotti; Meg Jaffy and Carlotta Di Gennaro; Caleb Oglesby and Stefano Santori; Grace Male y and Valentina Adami; Maddie Marsh and Valeria Callegaro; Grant Robinson and Giorgio Zappala; Addison Torrence and Filippo Santi; and Kelton Vaeth and Massimo De Bello. Our wonderful Leader was Cassingham interpreter, Amanda Kaiser, who was paired with Graziano Gallo, and our amazing junior co-leader, Gina Vottero, was partnered with Elisa Perdon. During our experience in Italy, we had the chance to make lifelong friends, learn about Italian lifestyles and culture, and eat de-

licious food. The hosting portion includes taking our visitors to the fun places that we like to go to, and showing them our lifestyles and culture. In this experience we learned how important it is to ha ve respect for others, patience with the language barriers and openmindedness about other people and their thoughts. We think all of these principals together will help us solve problems and disagreements later in life. By doing these things it will be easier to get along with others and make friends. This experience has had an impact on our view of different

cultures by making us realize that even though you might speak another language, wear different clothes, live in a different country, you still have some similar qualities and can become friends. This has been an unforgettable experience where we matured in so many ways and now when we look at map we w on’t just say, “There’s Italy,” we’ll say, “That is where people live who have changed our lives.” Grace Maley and Maddie Marsh will attend seventh grade and Riley Hayden eighth grade this fall at Bexley Middle School.

Football

Coaches face ‘delicate balance’ with scrimmages By JARROD ULREY ThisWeek Community Newspapers

On the way to its first losing season in 12 years last fall, an already young and undersized Ready High School football team was hindered further when it lost an expected two-way starter to a broken leg. The fact that Christian Knapper went down on the second play of the Silver Knights’ final preseason scrimmage to end his senior season virtually before it started was all the more painful. The 2011 preseason gets under way

Tuesday, Aug. 9, with a series of matchups that includes Grove City traveling to Upper Arlington and Gahanna playing host to Olentangy Liberty. From Aug. 9-20, coaches and players will compete in various scrimmages throughout central Ohio in preparation for the coming season. They’ll be crossing their fingers that they won’t face a similar situation to what the Silver Knights and Knapper did last fall. “Injuries like that usually are freak accidents where somebody twists somebody or gets pretzeled underneath a

pile,” Ready coach Larry Wolf said. “(Knapper’s injury was) where the kid tried to stop and cut. Most of the time freak injuries are a total accident where there’s no rhyme or reason to them. Our kids are well-conditioned and wellprepared and we just tell them to go out and play hard.” After three seasons in which his team stayed mostly healthy over the course of each season, DeSales coach Ryan Wiggins watched last year as several key regular-season injuries, including one to running back Warren Ball that lingered much of the fall, hindered his

team’s success. Like Wolf, however, Wiggins isn’t planning to keep his players from giving their best effort just to try to keep them from getting injured, and that includes when they’re competing in a preseason scrimmage. “It’s a delicate balance,” Wiggins said. “It always bothers me when a kid gets hurt in practice, but you’ve got to prepare physically. You’re trying to be smart when it’s your own guys, but when you play a different-colored jersey, you’ve just got to play. Usually when injuries occur they are freak things

and you can’t worry about them.” Most of central Ohio’s teams are competing in two scrimmages, although a few will play two scrimmages from Aug. 9-16 and a third that the OHSAA deems a “jamboree” scrimmage from Aug. 18-20. Because the OHSAA requires all schools to pay $250 to its Catastrophic Insurance Fund if they choose to compete in a third preseason game, schools may charge admission to the jamboree.

Commentary

Athletes share thoughts, advice For more than a decade, I have had student-athletes write in this summer series and the three questions that I enjoy hearing their responses from the most are what advice they would give to younger students who are beginning their sport, who their heroes are and what their future plans are LARRY at this time of LARSON their life. The final three weeks of this summer’s columns deal with those topics, beginning with the one on advice. As young people grow, they are faced with decisions on activities they might want to try. Whether it’s music, science, art, drama, sports or any other extracurricular activity, I highly urge them to give things a chance and see if it is the right fit for them. Here are suggestions from student-athletes who are among the best in the area, if not the state, at their sport. Michela Paradiso, Upper Arlington, soccer and basketball: “I would encourage the need to make sure you take responsibility for yourself in the sport. You can’t blame other people, coaches, parents, referees or other players for your downfalls and losses. Remember that there is a lot of time to play soccer and you have to keep the passion alive and keep teammates as the most important thing.” Austin Cuervo, St. Charles, golf: “I would tell a young athlete in my sport to have a good head. Golf is just about the least amount of strokes, not what strokes may or may not look like.” Chase Delande, Hilliard Davidson, football and wrestling: “Work hard at your sport.

Ryan Wilson won three events — the long jump, 100-meter hurdles and 300 hurdles — in the 1998 Division I state meet, scoring all of Westerville North’s points to secure a share of the state title with Brunswick. The 1999 North graduate advanced to state in four events each of his four seasons, scoring in 14 of the events.

Top Individual Performances: No. 2

Wilson ran to glory at state in ’98 By JARROD ULREY

Counting down to No. 1

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Even before Ryan Wilson entered high school, his mother, Cynthia, got a glimpse of the kind of competitor who was emerging under her roof. “He might have been 12 or 13 years old, and he told me, ‘I’m going to go to the state track meet all four years in four events,” his mother said. “That’s exactly what he would do, and he scored in 14 of those 16 events.” Perhaps his greatest feat as a prep athlete occurred in the 1998 Division I state meet, as the Westerville North junior 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). Even with a weekend full of accomplishments, there was a disappointment that is just as memorable to Wilson: He had to settle for seventh place in the 200. Although athletes now receive

ThisWeek Community Newspapers has been around for 22 years. That timeframe was used as the basis to compile a top-10 list of the top individual performances we’ve covered. Along with the experienced sports staff at ThisWeek and Steve Blackledge, high school reporter at The Columbus Dispatch, we arrived at a top-10 list. Below are Nos. 3-10. Check back next week for No. 1 and let us know your thoughts at ThisWeekSPORTS.com.

NOS. 3-10: 10. MAURICE HALL, Brookhaven football (Oct. 27, 2000) — During a season in which he rushed for 3,057 yards to rank fifth on Ohio’s all-time list, Hall’s most memorable individual performance came during the final week of the regular season. The Bearcats beat Briggs 75-16 as Hall rushed for 411 yards and eight touchdowns on 19 carries. 9. LATOYA TURNER, Pickerington girls basketball (March 19, 1999) — The 6-foot-4 senior helped the Tigers advance to the Division I state final

two points for finishing seventh and one point for eighth in an event, a different point system was in place at that time in which no points were given for seventh

with her 29-point performance in a 5135 win over Wadsworth. The Ohio State recruit made 12 of 14 shots from the floor and was 5-for-6 from the free-throw line while adding five rebounds, four steals and two assists. 8. DARCY FISHBACK, Upper Arlington girls swimming (Feb. 27-28, 2009) — During preliminaries Feb. 27, Fishback broke the state record in the 100-yard butterfly when she finished in 53.38 seconds. She won her fourth state title in the event the next day in 54.17 seconds. Fishback also swam on two state-record relays: the 200 medley (1:43.59) and the 200 freestyle (1:34.24). 7. CHARLES JOHNSON, Watkins Memorial boys basketball (Feb. 24, 1995) — There have been few more surprising performances than what this 5-8 senior guard accomplished in leading the Warriors to a 93-87 overtime upset of second-seeded and stateranked London in the second round of the Division II district tournament. Watkins Memorial was just 1-19 entering the matchup but got 57 points

or eighth. The three titles he won that weekend gave North 30 points and a co-championship in Division I with Brunswick.

from Johnson, who made 19 of 34 from floor, including eight 3-pointers, and was 11-for-15 from the free-throw line. He added eight rebounds, six steals and five assists. 6. KHALILAH CARPENTER, Brookhaven girls track and field (June 2-3, 2000) — At the 2000 Division I state meet, the junior broke the meet and state records in the 100 meters with a time of 11.59 seconds on June 2. The next day, she won the 100 in 11.71 and the 200 title in 23.69, a time that lowered the state mark she already held. 5. JEFF BACKES, Upper Arlington football (Dec. 2, 2000) — In leading the Golden Bears to the Division I state title, the 5-9, 180-pound senior turned in a performance worthy of the Ohio Mr. Football award that he had received days earlier. Backes rushed for 183 yards and two touchdowns on 32 carries and preserved a 15-9 victory over Solon at Fawcett Stadium in Canton with an interception with less than a minute remaining. 4. COURTNEY SMITH, Hilliard David-

son softball (May 17 and 19, 2006) — Smith brought to a close what remains the longest OHSAA softball tournament game, hitting a grand slam in the bottom of the 22nd inning for a 41 victory over Olentangy Liberty and a Division I district championship for the Wildcats. It was Smith’s first career home run. She also stood out in the circle, striking out 29 while pitching a complete game. She didn’t allow a run until the top of the 22nd. 3. GREG AVERY, Newark boys basketball (March 15, 2008) — Avery led the Wildcats to a 65-52 victory over Lakewood St. Edward in the Division I state championship game. The 6-3 senior forward tied his career high of 33 points on 14 of 18 shooting and added 11 rebounds, three assists and four steals as the Wildcats captured their first state title since 1943. Avery made third-team all-state his senior season as he averaged 18.9 points, 8.6 rebounds and 4.2 assists. He became the sixth player in program history to score more than 1,000 points, finishing with 1,131 career points.

“The interesting thing is that event. I had chosen to run the 200 what I remember most about it instead of the (1,600 relay) that is the lesson I learned,” Wilson year and I remember I got sevsaid. “The 200 was my last event See WILSON, page B2 and was definitely my weakest

Area team captures Midwest championship By PAUL BATTERSON ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Eric Brunton and his doubles partner, Blake Byrns, towered over the other members of the Columbus team in the Midwest City Team Tennis Championships on July 15-17 in Indianapolis. But according to the 6-foot-2 Brunton, a Clintonville native and 2011 Watterson High School graduate, it was the younger, smaller players who stood tall as Columbus captured the team title. “It was nice to have won it, but to be See LARSON, page B2 honest, I wasn’t a huge factor,” Brunton

said. “It was mostly the little kids who helped us win. I was definitely impressed with them. I know I wasn’t able to play that well when I was their age.” Columbus went 2-1 in the round-robin portion of the eight-team event and defeated Jasper, Ind., 24-16 in a semifinal and Indianapolis Red 28-12 in the final to win the championship outright for the first time in eight years. Columbus was comprised of 21 players in five age groups and coached by Jim Criswell, Scott Gerber and Max Quinton. “It was funny,” Criswell said. “We had Byrns from Westerville Central who is

like 6-foot-8 and then we had some guys on the 10-and-under squad who weren’t even 4 feet tall. I was going to get a picture of three or four of the 10-and-unders standing like a totem pole next to Blake. “You didn’t know from match to match who was going to step up. We had really strong 10-and-unders, but sometimes we ran into teams who had really good 10-and-unders and it’d be the 18-andunders that came through. Other times, the 18-and-unders got cleaned out and the 10-and-unders would come through.” Joining Brunton and Byrns on the

Columbus team were Westerville’s Ryan Wahl and Upper Arlington’s Will Reynolds in the boys 10-11 age group, Powell’s Chloe Sidick and Dublin’s Emma Ferguson in girls 10-11, Lancaster’s Colton Clark, Upper Arlington’s Alex Hulka and Westerville’s Jacob Kotik in boys 12-13, Pataskala’s Lexi Steer and Dublin’s Reagan Resor in girls 1213, Upper Arlington’s Ty Holsopple and Powell’s Austin Karbler (Olentangy High School) in boys 14-15, Hilliard’s Mary Anne Click (Columbus School for Girls) See TENNIS, page B2

TENNIS cal 2-1 records, Columbus won its flight with 73 points, finishing ahead of Chicago (71) and St. Louis (69). Columbus’ 14-and-under players dominated in singles and mixed doubles, going 30-0. Click, Holsopple, Karbler and Reynolds each won all five singles and mixed doubles matches. Letizia went undefeated in the girls 18-andunder singles play and teamed with Gerber to win four doubles matches. Steer and Resor teamed to win four matches in 12-and-under doubles, and Treglia and Quinton teamed to win four matches in 16-and-under mixed doubles. Criswell said what impressed him the most about his team’s performance was the team unity. “It didn’t matter what age group was playing, there was someone from our team there cheering the players on,” he said. “You would have a 10-and-under (player) out there playing and there were the 18-and-under bo ys cheering him on. It’s such a team-oriented thing.”

The players qualified for the Columbus team by finishing first or second in their respecti ve age group in the Bernard Master Junior Satellite Circuit tournament held during the winter. In the Midwest City Team Tennis Championships, each player had to play one set of a singles match, doubles match and mix ed-doubles match, with each match being w orth one point. A team had to score more than 20 points to win the match.

FOOTBALL Continued from page B1 Olentangy Orange opens its scrimmage schedule Aug. 13 against visiting Kings Mills Kings and plays host to Westland on Aug. 16 before playing host to Reynoldsburg on Aug. 19 in a jamboree. According to Pioneers coach Brian Cross, the scrimmage against Westland will be a “passing scrimmage.” Although both teams will have 11 players on the field unlike in the 7-on-7 passing tournaments during the summer, at least seven of every 11 plays will be passes. Cross considers it to be a sign of the times as teams continue to develop more complex passing offenses. Westland’s new coach, Steve White, was an assistant under Cross when the two were on the same coaching staff at Grove City. “I don’t know what other people are doing, but having two scrimmages when we tackle and run the ball is enough, ” Cross said. “This gives us a chance to have the defense see more passing, and we’ll mix in a few draw plays.” While some teams prefer to play a neighborhood school that could bring unique intensity during their scrimmage opener, others will enter their f irst scrimmage with an eye on keeping it simple. Perennial playoff contender Eastmoor Academy and defending Division IV state champion Hartley will meet in the opening scrimmage for both teams Aug. 13 at Hartley. The matchup of East-side schools is one that Warriors coach Jim Miranda looks forward to because of the toughness that his team will get to face as it pre-

That extra point I didn’t get was what I remember the most because my team didn’t win the (outright championship).” Wilson’s performance in the 1998 state meet was part of one of the most remarkable prep careers of any central Ohio track athlete. In 1996 as a freshman at Columbus Academy, he took second in the long jump, was fifth in the 110 hurdles and ran the anchor leg of the winning 1,600 relay in the Division III state meet. That performance followed a boys soccer season in which he helped the Vikings win the 1995 Division II state title. Wilson transferred to Westerville North midway through his sophomore season and immediately became a standout at the Division I track level. In the 1997 state meet, he took fourth in the long jump, fourth in the 110 hurdles and fourth in the 300 hurdles and helped the 1,600 relay finish third. In 1998, during the final state track meet held at Ohio Stadium, he was one of five North athletes competing but the only one who scored. The 3,200 relay of Nathan Aichele, Jared Conley, Jason Conley and Tyler Pensyl also represented the Warriors but didn’t place. In 1999 at Welcome Stadium in Dayton, Wilson defended his titles in the 110 hurdles (13.7) and 300 hurdles (36.46) and finished third in the long jump (237 1/4). He also competed in the 1,600 relay that failed to place. “It was amazing, watching Ryan perform the way that he did,” said Pensyl, who went on to run for Denison University and has been working for the law firm of Vorys, Sater, Seymour and Pease as an associate for five years. “He rose to the occasion. We only lost one meet all year , and we had a number of outstanding individuals. It really felt like a team championship and I thought it was a reflection of

everything that we did that year.” According to Bob Cavin, who was North’s coach in 1998 and currently serves as an assistant football and track coach at New Albany, a now-famous T-shirt was produced after the first day of the state meet. On the front, the shirt read, “Get outta my way. I’m on Ryan Wilson’s team.” On the back,it read, “I made it to the state meet,too.” “It was a great team accomplishment and Ryan was just the leader,” Cavin said. “For Ryan to score all of our points, that was just the icing on the cake.” “Even though I happened to score all of the points, that was one of the best teams we’ve ever had,” Wilson said. “Even though it’s an individual sport, I still have a lot of friends from that team. That was the last meet in ‘The Horseshoe,’and I’m really proud I was able to be a part of people sending the track out in style.” Wilson comes from a family of track athletes. His brother, Glen, was a three-time state meet competitor for Academy who later competed in track forYale. His mother coached track in the 1980s and early 1990s, making stops at Columbus Central, Centennial and Academy, and remains a teacher at Academy. After Wilson graduated from North, he competed for the University of Southern California, winning an NCAA title in the 110 hurdles in 2003. He also was the bronze medalist in the IAFF World Athletics Final in 2008. Wilson has been a professional track athlete since 2004. In the USATF Outdoor Nationals on June 25 in Eugene, Ore., he finished 16th (13.52) in the semifinals of the 110 hurdles senior race as the top eight advanced to the final. He then traveled to Europe to compete in meets in Switzerland and France in July. He also was expected to travel to Sweden for a meet in late July. Now 30 years old,Wilson expects to continue competing professionally for at least two years and possibly as many as six. He has lived in Los Angeles since 1999. “It’s a lot of fun to compete in Europe,” he said. “It’s always nice

to know that there’s a knowledgeable fan base over there that really appreciates you. It’s refreshing. I definitely feel fortunate to be able to travel like this, and I’m trying to enjoy the parts that I can. Not a lot of people are able to see the world like I have.” Although he’s competed in track meets in front of as man y as 75,000 fans in Europe, the sheer magnitude of winning three state titles is something Cynthia Wilson believes will live on in the memories of track f ans throughout Ohio. “The further you get away from it, the more you realize what a big deal it was, especially since it was in Division I,” she said. “It was the last time the meet was held at Ohio State, so that was fun, too. He’s always set all of these goals for himself and some of those goals have eluded him, but he’s been able to run at the highest levels. He loves the hurdles and he really loved Westerville North and loved coach Cavin and the support from the community.” julrey@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com
