City income tax revenue topping 2010 By SARAH SOLE ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Grove City’s income tax revenue collected so far this year is $865,000 higher than it was at the same time in 2008, the city’s previous income tax peak. Based on the first six months’ income tax revenue, it looks like the city will exceed its year-end
projections, said city finance director Mike Turner. The city had projected it would collect $17 million in income tax by the end of 2011, just below 2008 levels. Turner said the city’s largest previous income-tax collection was in 2008. Currently, the city is just short of $10 million in income tax revenue for fiscal year 2011.
That amount is 9 percent higher than the amount collected in the first six months of 2008, about 20 percent higher than the first six months of 2009 and 17.5 percent higher than the first six months of 2010. The recent peak is an indication of a slight improvement in the economy, Turner said. Almost $1 million of the in-
crease in revenue is attributed to an increase in business income tax payments. Withholding taxes are up 4 percent from last year, Turner said, and withholding taxes represent most of the revenue. The number one factor that could affect revenue is the economy, Turner said. Grove City is fortunate through the years that
planning has allowed the city to have different types of businesses here, including education, retail, transportation, warehousing, service and manufacturing, Turner said. “We don’t really rely on one type of industry,” he said. About 70 percent of the city’s annual revenue is income tax. Income-tax revenue goes to the city’s
general fund. The largest expenditure of general fund is security of persons and property, which includes the city police department. Money from the general fund also is used for capital projects. “We’re constantly trying to control expenses,” Turner said. Because the police department See REVENUE, page A2

Mayoral race attracts three hopefuls thus far By SARAH SOLE ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Three men have announced their candidacy for Grove City mayor in the November election. City council president Ted Berry and former council member Michael Uhrin have taken out petitions. Incumbent
Richard “Ike” Stage said he will seek re-election. The filing deadline is 4 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 10. Stage, elected in 2007, has participated in Grove City government in various forms since 1979, when he served on the Grove City Planning Commission. He also served as mayor from
April 1988 to 1995. A Grove City native, Stage serves as senior vice president of the Citizens Bank of Ashville. Building additional job opportunities within the city and working with Mount Carmel on its forthcoming emergency center in the city are some of his goals for next year.
He also wants to find a permanent home for the Grove City Center for Higher Education, currently operating out of the South-Western Career Academy on Big Run South Road. The facility comprises Ashland University, Columbus State Community See MAYORAL, page A5
Though students might not be thinking about returning to classes just yet, the SouthWestern City School District has been busy making repairs in preparation for the start of school. SWCS usually spends about $1 million on its summer permanent improvements. This year, the work includes roofing repairs for various buildings and a new temperature-control system at Darby Woods Elementary School. Funding for the projects comes from the district’s permanent improvement levy, approved in May 2005. The 2 mills bring in about $4.5 million per year, said Sandra Nekoloff, district executive director of communications and community relations. The largest portion of this year’s expenditure went to partial roof replacements at six sites, totaling about $410,000, said Mark Waller, coordinator of property services. Roof repairs were done at Stiles Family Resource Center and Bostic Center, while partial roof replacement was done at Finland Elementary, J.C. Sommer Elementary and Pleasant View Middle schools. The projects’ completion date is Aug. 16. J.C. Sommer’s roof “was leaking quite a bit,” while other roofs had minor leaks, Waller said. Winter weather is particularly rough on roofs. Finland Elementary’s roof problems were exacerbated by the winter. The district has a roof section replacement schedule that cycles over a 25-year period. Roofs have 20-year warranties. About $185,000 was spent on heating, ventilation and air conditioning at Darby Woods Elementary and Buckeye Woods Elementary schools. About $125,000 of that went to replace the control system that regulates Darby Woods’temperature and diagnoses any possible problems within the system. Other improvements included asphalt paving, masonry repairs, siding repairs, shelving and casework, fence repair at Franklin Heights and Westland high schools and flooring projects at Stiles, J.C. Sommer, North Franklin elementary schools and Franklin Heights and Grove City high schools. Everything has been going according to schedule, and many of the projects have come in under budget, Waller said. “I’m really pleased with the progress that we’ve made,” he said.
City installs more safeguards on financial procedures By SARAH SOLE ThisWeek Community Newspapers
While GBQ Consulting reported Grove City’s financial procedures are “operating as designed,” the city is implementing additional safeguards. GBQ was hired by the city in January to review Grove City’s books, and last week delivered its report on the city’s internal
accounting. A city press release said, “GBQ found that the current procedures and internal controls related to bank reconciliation and cash management procedures were operating as designed and were similar to what would be observed in similar-sized organizations.” GBQ, which initially was paid for $20,000, was hired for an ad-
food & wine
ditional $25,000 to review management procedures and bank account reconciliations, for a total of $45,000, city finance director Mike Turner said. GBQ prepared information for the report since January. This work concludes the contract that GBQ had with the city, said city community businessrelations officer Don Walters. Meanwhile, Grove City is in
the process of implementing new accounting and payroll software, at a cost of $132,754. While the finance software will be in place by fall, the payroll software will be in place by the first of the year, Turner said. The new software will have an annual maintenance cost of $13,668. City safety director Mike Wasylik said the report “should help us avoid any type of significant
mistakes in the handling of our cash in the future.” In December, the Internal Revenue Service told the city it owed about $685,905 in unpaid payroll withholding taxes. City officials on Feb. 7 said the city had made a payment of $752,179 to the IRS. The IRS had reduced the amount due from the $1.4 million the city previously believed
could be its obligation to the IRS. A special state auditor’s investigation is under way regarding the $235,311 in unaccounted-for city funds linked to IRS debt. City police chief Steve Robinette said the city will come in under its initial $54,000 estimate for the state auditor’s office reSee CITY INSTALLS, page A2

City installs more safeguards REVENUE on financial procedures Continued from page A1
Continued from page A1` ` port, because of the amount of work that city detectives had already done. The city has paid $37,184 to date, and Robinette said he doesn’t expect the cost to increase much more. The criminal investigation has cost city police $21,363 so far in overtime. Robinette said he also doesn’t expect this amount to significantly increase, unless they were to do something outside of normal work hours. That scenario isn’t very probable, he said. The police department initially put a lot of resources into the investigation to identify and preserve evidence. While he’s hesitant to put a timeline on it, he said he’s hopeful that the investigation is near conclusion. “We have done the bulk of the work,” he said. That work includes reviewing
two computers and a number of bags, boxes and “totes” of paperwork obtained when a search warrant was executed in January. Police searched the residence of payroll specialist Jackie Kincade, who was put on paid leave on Dec. 10. She retired effective Jan. 7 and has denied any wrongdoing. No charges have been filed against her. In the request for the search warrant — submitted by city police to the Franklin County Municipal Court on Dec. 29 — police wrote that city finance director Mike Turner “had discovered over 20 unauthorized checks had been issued from the Grove City Payroll Account held at the US Bank to and cashed by Ms. Jacqueline Kincade. These unauthorized checks had occurred over a period of five years. The loss was over $64,000.” GBQ reviewed bank account
reconciliations of certain cash accounts and the cash management procedures for the parks and recreation department, mayor’s court, the building division, and the finance department and found them to be functioning properly. The report recommends improving the segregation of duties, memorializing through written documentation the procedures that are to be followed, improving the effectiveness and accuracy of reporting related to cash, and the cross-training of associates. “I thought they came up with some good recommendations,” Turner said, saying the city plans to implement every one of them. The city also has paid $105,000 in legal fees to Schottenstein, Zox & Dunn, the firm that employs the city’s attorney.
is the largest department, it has had the biggest increase. However, general fund expenses have gone up across the board, Turner said. “It’s not always what you do but how you do it,” that can save money, said city administrator Phil Honsey. For example, getting bids out in a timely fashion to allow for good competition and best prices is important. The city has also been “very, very successful” in leveraging capital improvement dollars with federal and state grants, Honsey said. In the past three years, Grove City has brought in more than $30 million in state and federal grants for roadway and other infrastructure improvements.

Parkway Centre
Development nears completion By SARAH SOLE ThisWeek Community Newspapers
A closer look
The first of three new businesses at Parkway Centre is expected to open this month. Hobby Lobby Stores Inc. and Kohl’s Department Stores are relocating stores from Columbus, while Rave Motion Pictures is building a new theater. Hobby Lobby is building a 56,073 squarefoot store at 4192 Buckeye Parkway, to replace its store at 4300 W. Broad St. Construction started in April, and the company plans to have a grand opening by mid to late August. “We wanted to be in a more regional shopping area to better serve our customers,” spokesperson Vincent Parker said. All current employees are moving with the store, Parker said. “We always hope to be able to hire more people when we move a store, but that will be determined by sales volume at the new location,” Parker said. Hobby Lobby hired 30 temporary employees to help during the move. Hobby Lobby has 486 stores in 40 states. Kohl’s will move its store at 4050 W. Broad St. in Columbus to a new Grove City location at Buckeye Parkway and Stringtown Road, opening Sept. 25. “We are pleased to share that all Kohl’s associates have been offered positions at Grove City or other stores in the area,” said Vicki Shamion, senior vice president, public and community relations. No information on possible new job creation was available by press time. Kohl’s has 14 additional Columbus area locations, among 56 stores throughout the state. Last to arrive will be the Rave Motion Pictures Theatre at 4218 Buckeye Parkway, which is slated to open by Nov. 18.
Hobby Lobby Stores Inc. and Kohl’s Department Stores are relocating stores from Columbus into the Parkway Centre, while Rave Motion Pictures is building a new theater.
“We are very confident we can make that date,” said Jeremy Devine, vice president of marketing at Rave Motion Pictures. The cinema will create about 74 part-time jobs and about six fulltime jobs. Construction started in November of 2010 on the 55,000 square-foot facility, which will feature 14 digital projection screens and about 2,500 total seats. Six screens will be able to show 3-D films, Devine said. The theatre’s largest auditorium, “Rave Extreme,” will feature a wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling curved screen that Devine estimates will be almost 66 feet wide. While tickets for the “Extreme” room typically cost $2 more than normally priced tickets for regular films and $3 more for 3-D films, ticket prices aren’t yet set. This will be the first Rave location in Grove City; another Rave is on Gemini Place in Columbus. Based out of Dallas, Rave has 61 locations across the United States. City development director Chuck Boso said Kohl’s, Hobby Lobby, and the Rave Theatre will complete Parkway Centre. While room is available for smaller stores, none remains for big-box retailers. “From an entertainment standpoint, I think it’s a positive.” Boso said. Parkway Centre, which contains more than a million square feet of commercial property, was started in 2004, he said.

Balloons and Tunes scheduled for Aug. 26, 27 By SARAH SOLE ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Hot-air balloons are coming back to Beulah Park. Grove City will hold its annual Balloons and Tunes event from about 5 to 9:30 p.m. Aug. 26 and 27 at Beulah Park, 3811 Southwest Blvd. The event is free, and parking beside the track is $5. This year’s event will include a “Mount Carmel Up and Away 5K” run during the morning balloon launch on Aug. 27. The city is partnering with Mount Carmel Health System and Premier Racing for the 5K run, which benefits the Meals on Wheels program. Registration opens at 6:30 a.m. The event is open to walkers and runners. The race starts at 8 a.m. The route goes around the race track and extends through the historic town center. The top three males and females will receive awards. At 8:10 a.m., youngsters can participate in a one-mile “fun run” around the Beulah Park track. Pre-registration for the 5K is $20 at premierraces.com/ 2011Races/ MtCarmelUPandAway.html, or $25 the day of the race. This year’s major sponsors include Giant Eagle, Mount Carmel, CW on WWHO-TV and Beulah Park. Last year, the city spent $35,000 on the event and was assisted by quite a few sponsors, said city recreation superintendent Ed Merritt. This year’s event is expected to attract 20 hot air balloons. One launch per evening is scheduled, usually between 6:30 and 7 p.m. Balloons typically are
in the air from 30 to 90 minutes, depending on daylight, weather and the wind’s direction. “It’s just something that everybody loves to watch,” Merritt said. About 16 or 17 balloons go up at a time. Three or four balloons usually stay behind, to provide tethered rides up to 80 feet high. Last year the cost of a tethered balloon ride was $5; Merritt said this year’s cost hasn’t been decided. Full balloon rides range from $300 to $400. Individuals can register for the tethered and regular balloon rides in a large tent called the Imaginarium. Information and interactive activities about ballooning is available there for children.
Youth activities from 5 to 8:45 p.m. Friday and Saturday will include inflatables, face painting and various games. TWIG 184, a fundraising group for Nationwide Children’s Hospital, takes donations for face painting. Music will be featured Friday and Saturday on a stage east of the launch area. The Conspiracy Band will play blues and jazz Friday evening, while the Victory Highway Band will play classic rock and some country Saturday evening. Each band will play three sets, from 5 to 6 p.m., from 6:20 to 7:20 p.m., and from 7:40 to 8:40 p.m. Food vendors also will be at the event.

There are still a few places in American life where all of the work is done by people of one gender — modeling men’s or women’s clothing comes to mind — b ut there are not many. Most of the professions, trades and occupations in our society are practiced by ED women as well as men. LENTZ This is not to say that women are always treated the same in these lines of work. It is not too hard to find professions where women are still paid less than men. Why that might be the case, I will leave to writers about the current scene considerably wiser than I. Suffice to say, 100 years ago there were not all that man y women working in the skilled professions outside the home. One of them was Elise Fitch Hinman. And while one might make the case that the kind of w ork she did was still in the throes of becoming a profession, no one ever said that Elise Fitch Hinman was not very good at what she did. And what she did w as write professionally for a local newspaper in Columbus. To appreciate how remarkable this was at the time, we should probably take a quick look at the “newspaper trade” of a century ago. At the turn of the twentieth century, there was no radio, no television and the movies were still machines vaguely resembling an ATM into which one put a nickel to see flickering images of people doing presumably interesting things. Hence the name, nickelodeon. Most people got most of their news from ne wspapers. In Columbus in 1900, there were several to choose from. The town of more than 125,000 people had several daily papers and a number of weeklies as well. Most papers in that era professed a pronounced political viewpoint — in their news pages as well as their editorials. The Ohio State Journal was the official voice of the Ohio Republican Party. For many years, the old Ohio Statesman had done the same thing for the Democrats. It was gone by 1900. By that time, what would become the Columbus Press-Post was trying to be the Democratic paper. In the midst of these partisan struggles were, among other papers, the Columbus Dispatch and the Columbus Citizen. The newspaper trade was a tough business. Whole bundles of newspaper to be sold on one corner or another were sometimes stolen. Paperboys from one paper often literally fought for a lucrative corner with paper boys from another paper . And reporters — a rather hard-living crew — sometimes fought with their rivals from other papers with fists rather than words. The high point, or low point, depending on one’s point of view, of these conflicts had come in 1888 when the two Elliot brothers marched up High Street from the office of their newspaper and shot dead the editor of a competing paper in broad daylight.

Uhrin, of Meadow Grove Drive, is a 39-year Grove City resident, moving here from northeast Ohio. Uhrin is president of K12 School Consultants LLC and president of Uhrin Enterprises Inc.,a commercial rental company. Elected as council member at large in 2008, Uhrin served for two years. “When you run for city council at large, you’re working for the whole city and you’re elected by the whole city,” he said. He plans to run for mayor in order to reform Grove City government and administration, Uhrin said. Uhrin wants the city to switch to a charter-city manager type of government, which he said many cities Grove City’s size have done
to eliminate some politics. In some area cities with charters, the mayor also serves as a voting council member. Uhrin also wants to redistrict wards to have a total of seven, which would add two council members. Berry has served on council since 2006. He also served on the Franklin County Republican Central Committee in Columbus from 2004 to 2008. Originally from Wooster, Berry has been a Grove City resident for 16 years. He has worked as a director of business development with Ohio State University since 2004. Berry said he wants to create a “shared vision” as mayor that would focus on jobs, amenities, and a safe community and schools. No effort has been made to create a vision, he said. “If there’s a vision for Grove City, I don’t know what it is,” he said. He said he also wants to restore public trust in city government. The city’s debt issue with the Internal Revenue Service “has created a huge black eye for us,” he said.

Students move a whole new way! Business owners Wendy and Chris Bernadino, who own the Pak Mail center located at 2167 Stringtown Rd. in Grove City, report that the days of a student heading off to college with some clothes and a popcorn popper are truly gone. “Now students take a computer, stereo, TV, bicycle and mountains of other necessities for campus life today.” This has created a huge demand for the professional handling of their precious items. Pak Mail can package and ship these items more cost effectively than traditional
methods. Pak Mail handles the entire shipment from the students’ homes to their college residences, even if that college is half way around the world. The Bernadinos said, “It is not unusual for a Pak Mail center to transport an automobile to a student living and studying abroad. We have this image of the family loading up the mini van and transporting the student and their meager belongings to the college. It just isn’t feasible anymore. We make sure that all of the student’s personal goods arrive safely and in time
to be unpacked before school starts. This way the student can travel by airplane or the family can drive the student in comfort, not in a cramped automobile.” Pak Mail is a franchised packing, shipping and small business support center which offers custom boxing, wood
crating, furniture shipping, overnight express, mailbox rental, copies, fax, business services and supplies. They are also Authorized Shipping Outlets for UPS and FedEx. Pick-up and delivery are also available. Pak Mail truly does have the capability to “Ship Anything, Anywhere”. For information, call (614) 801-1900. PAKMAIL 2167 Stringtown Rd.

Tips to improve standardized test scores Though some professional educators debate the use of standardized tests, students of all ages can expect such tests to continue to play a role in their education. Younger students might take standardized tests to help determine the class level that best suits their abilities, while high school students will need to take certain standardized tests in order to gain admission to a college or university. Since standardized tests are likely going nowhere anytime soon, students can take several steps to improve their scores. • Maintain healthy sleep patterns. Healthy sleep restores and renews the body, both mentally and physically. When a person suffers from sleep deprivation, the negative side effects are numerous. These include memory and
tests with them. Such practice tests are often very similar to the actual tests and will help kids be more comfortable with the tests when it comes time to take the real ones. When taking practice tests, time them just as you would the actual tests. This, too, can improve a student’s comfort level and will decrease the likelihood that a student will feel like he or she is racing against the clock when the time comes to take the real test. • Learn the test. Learning the test involves figuring how a score is determined. Some standardized tests place greater emphasis on certain questions and tabulate scores based on this weighting system. Learn that weighting system if it exists, and in the months leading up to the test help students concentrate on those sections that weigh
cognitive impairment, making it difficult for people to think and process information. That said, a student preparing to take a standardized test who is struggling to sleep at night is much less likely to succeed on the test than a student who is getting adequate sleep. Parents and students should examine sleeping patterns months in advance of the test, and work to address any problems as soon as possible. The sooner the issue is resolved, the sooner a student’s memory is likely to improve, which can help his or her test scores as well. • Practice. Practice tests can be a very valuable tool when attempting to improve standardized test scores. Sample tests are available on a handful of Web sites, and tutors hired to help kids improve scores often bring practice

Why choose Primrose®? Just ask a mom. “My children are learning things I never imagined they could learn at this point in their lives. My preschooler can write his name and recite his alphabet and numbers. I also have a 15-month old who is learning his shapes and colors. It’s just amazing how much Primrose is teaching my children.” - Jude & Ethan’s Mom, Primrose Parent

When is the right age for teenagers to start using make-up? Teens experience an overwhelming urge to fit in, so they copy what they see. That’s why it’s important to start with the right information. “I’m pleased when mothers and daughters visit my studio for skin care and make-up techniques, because it gives them the opportunity to learn correctly from the beginning,” said Rosemary Cox, owner of the Merle Norman Cosmetic Studio in Grove City. Rosemary shares, “Skin care is essential for teens to
more heavily than others. Another thing to learn is if the test weighs wrong answers more than skipped questions. On such tests, a student might actually be better off leaving a question blank than guessing and risking a wrong answer. Many tutors specialize in a particular test and might be able to help students learn about the test they’re taking and, in so doing, improve their scores.

Balanced learning in preschool needed to prepare children for school
More and more parents are recognizing the importance of the early years to their children’s success in elementary school and beyond. Consider this: the most active time of brain development occurs before age five. Strong neural connections formed during this essential time are established by every experience children have with their environment. The quality of those early interactions determines how children continue to learn and form relationships, strongly influencing their future success and happiness. Research confirms that nurturing guidance and attention to every aspect of development in the early years help a child develop compassion, confidence and a love of learning, in addition to competence and academic skills. These capabilities are easy to take for granted, but can make all the difference in how a child responds to school and life beyond the classroom.

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. When it gets really tough, fight through it and keep going.” Napoleon Bell, Hartley, football and wrestling: “You will experience failure and defeat. The key thing is this: If the endeavor was a defeat, it was also a learning experience. It does not make you a failure.” Jake Blankenship, Gahanna, pole vault: “No matter what happens, make sure you give it your all and don’t quit. Pole vaulting is not an easy sport, but when you become successful, you learn you can do anything.” Mary Wells, Westerville Central, bowling: “Try the sport because you like it and not because someone else wants you to try it. If you are not sure whether you will enjoy the activity, make sure you at least give it a try.” Faith Washington, Reynoldsburg, track: “I would tell a young person beginning running to stay hydrated and always, always listen to what your body is trying to tell you during your

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
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
settle for seventh place in the 200. Although athletes now receive two points for finishing seventh and one point for eighth in an event, a different point system
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
was in place at that time in which no points were given for seventh or eighth. The three titles he won that weekend gave North 30 points
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.

Junior Tennis
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.

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-

run the 200 instead of the (1,600 relay) that year and I remember I got se venth because I didn’t run all the w ay through the line. I remember when I w atched the replay on the screen that someone was able to pass me right at the end. 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 Di vision 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 (23-7 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 Ca vin, who was North’s coach in 1998 and currently serv es as an assistant football and track coach at Ne w 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 julrey@thisweeknews.com was just the leader ,” Cavin said. “For Ryan to www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

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 for Yale. 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 w as 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 w as 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 kno w 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 many as 75,000 f ans in Europe, the sheer magnitude of winning three state titles is something Cynthia Wilson believes will live on in the memories of track fans throughout Ohio. “The further you get a way from it, the more you realize what a big deal it w as, 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 ha ve eluded him, but he’s been able to run at the highest levels. He loves the hurdles and he really lo ved Westerville North and loved coach Cavin and the support from the community.”
