New state budget a blow to Bexley

By JEFF DONAHUE ThisWeek Community Newspapers

If Bexley city officials wondered whether their budget challenges weren’t already serious enough, approval of the state budget removed all doubt.

“The state of Ohio budget that was passed last week will result in a loss of over 20 percent of Bexley’s general fund operating income,” said Ben Kessler, chairman of city council’s finance and judiciary committee. “In balancing the state budget, with its comparatively small 10-percent deficit, Ohio legislators have passed on a deficit in excess of 20 percent to Bexley.”

Kessler said Bexley is being especially hard hit by the state budget because of its status as a first-ring suburb with a high ratio of residential use and a low ratio of commercial and office uses.

“The local income tax in Ohio is a

payroll-based tax, and because Bexley has very little office or payroll-generating uses, our collection of income/payroll tax is commensurately sparse,” Kessler said.

Ben “As an illustration Kessler of this — while Bexley’s income/payroll tax rate is 2 percent, we only collect around 1 percent of our residents’ income, due to the fact that most of our residents work outside of the city and pay the bulk of their local income/payroll tax to cities other than Bexley. As a result, most of our residents pay far more to Columbus or other surrounding communities in local income tax than they do to the city where they live and where they receive the bulk of their city services.”

He said the elimination of Ohio’s estate tax will have a dramatic impact on

Bexley.

“The estate tax has been a saving grace for our community and for other communities like us — communities like Upper Arlington, Shaker Heights, and Oakwood, among many others,” he said. “ Unlike more peripheral suburbs that have seeming endless tracts of land with which to incentivize office developers in order to build up their payroll tax base, Bexley and other first-

ring suburbs are physically unable to support an adequate payroll base because of our established land-use patterns, and we have survived the payroll tax model in part because of the estate tax.

“Relying on the estate tax has had its drawbacks, but without this equalizer, we are severely underserved by the payroll tax model,” Kessler said.

“By eliminating this funding source without providing alternative means for first-ring suburbs like Bexley to fund core local services, state legislators have abandoned communities like ours and given us very few tools with which to compete.”

Overall, Kessler said, the new state budget did not include a lot of surprises but the loss of the estate tax was a major blow.

“Much of what was passed in the Ohio biennial budget was expected, and we’ve spent a lot of time analyzing and

preparing for those changes,” he said.

“However, there was a question as to whether or not the estate tax elimination would make it into the budget, and its inclusion is a large setback to Bexley’s funding model.

“Because the estate tax isn’t phased out until January of 2013, the city of Bexley has some time to plan and prepare for its loss,” he said. “It is extraordinarily important that we do so with realistic assumptions about the future, and with an implementable plan that can begin sooner rather than later so that any potential savings from further cost cutting can be realized and will begin to accrue immediately.”

Kesler said city leaders must now come up with new solutions to deal with the city’s looming financial crisis.

Morgan to retire as BEF executive director

By JEFF DONAHUE ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Charlene Morgan, the first and only executive director of the Bexley Education Foundation (BEF), has announced she will retire effective July 15.

During her 14-year tenure, Morgan helped the BEF raise more than $4 million in support of the Bexley City School District and its students.

Morgan joined the then- fledgling organization in 1997.

Colleagues attribute Morgan’s many accomplishments to her attention to detail; her persistence in fundraising; her willingness to support, mentor and guide board members; and her deep relationships with the school system and the community.

Under Morgan’s watch, the foundation awarded more than $4 million in grants, established endowments exceeding $2 million, and developed unique and forward-thinking programs including Leadership Bexley (a youth development program) and the

Bexley Community Book Club (a yearlong examination of the works of a prominent author).

Before joining the BEF, Morgan was a program development coordinator for Easter Seals. She was an active volunteer and a former Bexley English teacher.

From their first meeting, BEF Board of Governors members said they were impressed by Morgan’s drive and creative vision.

“Charlene has been so successful as executive director because she treated this position as more than a job; it became her passion,” said Bob Darwin, a member of the BEF board. “She has been the heart and soul of the organization, continually moving it forward. She believed in and embraced the mission and vision of the organization and strived to turn the BEF into one of the top public school foundations — not only in central Ohio, but in the nation.”

In addition to her work with the BEF, Morgan is a member of the Komen Columbus Grants Committee and a former board mem-

ber. She is a member of Childhood League Board 9 and is a sustaining member of both the Franklin Park Conservatory’s Women’s Board and the board of the Junior League of Columbus.

To honor Morgan and recognize the impact she has made on countless students, the BEF Board has created an endowed fund entitled the Charlene Morgan Emerging Leaders Fund. The endowed fund will allow Leadership Bexley graduates to embark on philanthropic programs for the good of the community.

The Bexley Education Foundation (BEF) operates in the belief that excellent public schools are essential to the economic and social health of the communities they serve. To that end, BEF staff, board and volunteers seek to support educational initiatives that help enhance quality education for students in the Bexley City School Distric.

Some parents of incoming Maryland Avenue Elementary School fourth-grade students are concerned about the impact larger class sizes for next school year may have on their children.

Representatives of those parents expressed their concerns to board members during the June 27 meeting.

Jonathan Baker said he and his wife are among the many parents who moved to the community because the school district’s educational standards are higher than those of the state.

Baker stressed that “manageable class sizes are important.”

He noted that the incoming Maryland Avenue fourth-grade class includes more students with special needs and urged board members to establish small-

er class sizes so those students would get the individual instruction they need to succeed.

Andy Rose, another Maryland parent, echoed Baker’s sentiments and asked board members what could be done to ensure the fourthgraders get the attention they need to get the most out of their educational experience.

Board members told parents at the meeting that they did not have the authority to make the decision on class size and that the superintendent and administrators followed district policy when determining staffing levels and class sizes.

Superintendent Michael Johnson was not present for the meeting but issued a statement following a request by ThisWeek.

“We are continuing to monitor the student enrollment and relat-

House approves Garlandsponsored anti-texting bill

By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers Once again, a bill prohibiting texting while driving will go before the Ohio Senate for approval.

The Ohio House passed the measure, House Bill 99, by a vote of 88-10 last week.

The legislation was co-sponsored by Rep. Nancy Garland (D-New Albany) and Rep. Rex Damschroder (R-Fremont).

“This is about saving lives,” Garland said.

H.B. 99 would ban entering or reading text messages on any device, including cellphones, personal digital assistants and laptop computers, while driving. It also would require driver-education courses to include instruction about the dangers of texting while driving. Drivers would be permitted to text only if their vehicles were not moving and were pulled off the road.

The bill stipulates that texting-while-driving violations would be considered minor misdemeanors, with possible fines up to $150.

Garland said she introduced similar legislation last year, which the House also approved.

However, the bill died in the Senate.

“We’re hopeful we can get this bill introduced in the Senate this year,” she said, mentioning that she and other legislators are working to get senators interested in the bill. She said the legislature has one working Nancy day in July and will not meet Garland again until September.

Garland said the idea for the bill came from one of her constituents in Gahanna, Sharon Montgomery. Montgomery’s husband died after complications from an accident caused by a driver who was using a cellphone. Montgomery has spoken regularly at various government meetings in effort to get municipalities to pass texting-while-driving bans.

“My role stays the same,” Montgomery said.

“I’ll still be talking to anybody and everybody to try and convince them we need this.”

Garland said it would be difficult to ban cellphone usage entirely in vehicles, but she called regulating texting “a step in the right direction.”

Capital U. names BUDGET Sayers executive VP

Continued from page A1

Kevin W. Sayers, Ph.D., has been named executive vice president for planning and advancement at Capital University.

He will head a newly established division that integrates the university’s planning, strategy, marketing, enrollment management and advancement functions into one organizational structure.

“Capital’s strategic plan relies on our collaborative work. It calls us to innovate and to reimagine,” president Denvy A. Bowman said.

“By creating new and natural alignments across divisions, we will set shared goals, implement new strategies and measure our progress.

“By building relationships and serving key constituencies, this new division will, with greater efficiency and unity of purpose, optimize recruitment, foster an engaged alumni community and sustain a culture of giving.”

Approved by the board of trustees at its June meeting, Sayers’ appointment is effective immediately. He previously served as Capital’s vice president for planning and strategy, which was integrated with University Advancement to form the Division of Planning and Advancement.

The new division comprises the following offices: admission, ad-

vancement services, alumni relations, capital fund, development research, external relations, financial aid Kevin W. and student Sayers employment, institutional research and assessment, major gifts, planned giving, publications and marketing, registrar, retention, and web communications.

Sayers leads the project management of strategic initiatives universitywide. He also serves as assistant to the president and is a member of Capital’s senior leadership team.

Beginning his career at Capital in 2003 as the university’s first director of institutional research, Sayers later served as assistant provost. He has worked in similar capacities at Brown University, Boston College and the Berklee College of Music.

Sayers earned his bachelor of music degree from the Dana School of Music at Youngstown State University, his master’s degree in education policy from Penn State University and his doctorate in higher education from Boston College.

ate an innovative, long-term strategic plan for stabilizing the budget, or we can respond to the crisis by becoming defensive, clinging to an unsustainable system and refusing to adapt,” he said. “Our community is filled with innovative and visionary leaders, and I think that we are capable of taking these blows and using them as an opportunity and an inspiration.”

While the city is prepared to place an income tax increase on the November ballot, Kessler said that alone will not solve the long-term issue.

“The 2.5-percent income tax that is currently being discussed won’t fill the gap,” he said. “It will help, but it will not allow us to continue to operate under the current paradigm.

“I propose that we view that as an opportunity — as a challenge that cannot only be overcome, but that can be a catalyst for re-envisioning how our city provides services to its resident,” Kessler said. “One side of this challenge is the expense side: How do we find efficiencies that in the past have proved so elusive? The other side of this challenge is the revenue side. One

idea I’m currently thinking about is a push, led by like-minded townships and suburbs, to reform Ohio’s local income tax system so that it’s based on where taxpayers live, not where they work.

“That simple distinction would immediately solve our budget woes. It would allow us to lower our tax rate below 2 percent and provide better funding for our city services than we receive today,” he said. “While it would have its detractors, I believe it would make for a much more streamlined and equitable system, and it’s an idea I think we and other communities need to start exploring.

“But there are many others, and no matter what ideas have the most traction and the most merit, we need to be energetically pursuing all of our options.

The weight of the current situation demands no less of a response than this.” jdonahue@ thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

High school’s teachers hone TEXTING CLASS SIZE skills during summer break Bexley High School teachers Sandy Rainey and Barbara Romanczuk, recently completed a week-long course at Ohio State University on technology tools in the foreign language classroom.

Romanczuk said she took the class because she wanted to learn more about creating and using wikis and blogs with her French Advanced Placement students.

“I was able to make both of those and I hope to use them this fall,” she said at the conclusion of the course.

Romanczuk also spent a second week in June at the Indiana Academy at Ball State University in Muncie, Ind., enrolled in a seminar devoted to the teaching of the new AP French Language Course.

The teachers learned about Skype, Audacity (a free, open

source software for recording and editing sounds), podcasting, Google Earth, Windows movie maker, Power Point, Flickr, Picasa, among other applications, and how they can be employed specifically for use in foreign language classes.

“The OSU professors pushed us to see that technology can be implemented in almost every lesson in a foreign language class,” said Romanczuk, who teaches French at the high school level.

Meanwhile, Erica Hecker, school counselor at Maryland Elementary in Bexley, is on the teaching end of the spectrum this summer. She is working as an adjunct instructor for the University of Dayton’s Department of Counselor Education at Capital University and teaching a practicum in school counseling.

The practicum for graduate students is part of their coursework to become professional licensed school counselors. Once Hecker’s students complete their practicum experience, they prepare for internships at central Ohio schools, including Hastings Middle School, Ridgeview Middle School, and Johnstown Monroe Elementary/Middle School.

Hecker described the course as “closely supervised practice and observation in both group and individual counseling within a school setting.”

Some of her students’time will be spent in direct service, including client contact, group work and combinations of individual and group work. The course helps the counseling students become familiar with the school setting, environment and curriculum.

H.B. 99 would exclude emergency personnel and public-safety forces; people using navigation devices; people receiving messages through radio air waves; and people receiving safety information, weather alerts or other “data used primarily by the motor vehicle;” people “reading, selecting, or entering a name or telephone number in an electronic wireless communications device for the purpose of making or receiving a telephone call;” people using a device that does not work manually; and people “operating a commercial truck while using a mobile data terminal that transmits and receives data.”

ed staffing needs throughout the school district,” he said. “Teachers will be hired as needed and those decisions will be guided by the district’s staffing policy.”

When contacted about the issue in May, school district public information officer Amy Thompson said the district’s policy on class size is as follows: The primary grades (K-3) strive to maintain 20-22 students per classroom.

Intermediate grades (4-6) have classes of 22-25 students per classroom.

“In either case, the superintendent has the discretion to add

a teachers’aide, as he did last fall at Cassingham when he added a half-time aide in two second-grade classrooms, one with 23 and the other with 24 students,” Thompson said. “… Dr. Johnson has adhered to that policy in the 10 years he has been in the district.”

Maryland principal Jon Hood assured parents that no final decisions have been made on class sizes for the 2011-12 school year.

He said it was difficult to project class sizes at this time because there are always last-minute enrollments that can affect class sizes.

He said he would monitor the situation closely and did not rule out using classroom aides if they were needed.

Capital names Ashbrook VP for academic and student affairs Capital University has announced the appointment of Richard M. Ashbrook, Ph.D., as vice president for academic and student affairs.

The newly established division is intended to integrate student life and academic life into one organizational structure.

Ashbrook is a professor of psychology and former dean of the college, the larger of the Capital’s two academic units — the law school and the college. The college includes five schools: Conservatory of Music and School of Communication; School of Humanities; School of Management and Leadership; School of Natural Sciences, Nursing and Health; and School of Social Sciences and Education.

On the faculty of Capital since 1986, Ashbrook has served the university in a variety of roles, including chair Richard M. of the behavAshbrook ioral sciences and acting dean of Adult Learning. He has been active in faculty governance, serving as a member and past chair of the faculty senate and the faculty evaluation committee.

He holds a bachelor of science in behavioral sciences from the University of Maryland; master’s and doctoral degrees in clinical psychology from Ohio State University; and a Master of Fine Arts in creative writing, also from

Ohio State. An active scholar, Ashbrook has published articles, book chapters and short stories, and frequently presents at professional conferences in the areas of psychological ethics, experiential learning, and the prediction of violence.

He is a member and past chair of the Ohio Psychological Association Ethics Committee, and a past president of the Central Ohio Psychological Association.

Under his leadership, the university is engaged in a comprehensive self-study in anticipation of the Higher Learning Commission’s visit in 2012-13 and the renewal of the institution’s accreditation for another 10 years.

Ashbrook also continues to focus on implementing the university’s comprehensive strategic plan.

busy throughout the summer.

The hub for the district’s Summer Academy, the central office is also engaged in various backto-school preparations, like orientation for teachers who are new to the district. The school calendar is about to go to print and newly approved textbooks must be ordered.

Three of Bexley’s longtime administrators — Barry Zwick, Anne Hyland and Barb Heisel – retire this summer and their accumulated expertise and knowledge is being tapped to pass on to their successors.

Summer is one of the busiest times of the year for treasurer Chris Essman, as his staff wraps up one fiscal year and begins another. A new state budget, with profound implications for Bexley Schools’ funding, must be analyzed and incorporated into financial projections.

As Essman says, “July 1 is New Year’s Day around here.”

This year, at Maryland Elementary, workers are building and installing cubbies in several of the classrooms, while, at Montrose, a contractor is removing carpet originally installed during the building’s 1990 renovation. The damaged carpet, with giant wrinkles that have been the bane of maintenance workers and teachers, will soon be replaced by vinyl flooring.

Workers are rearranging the Bexley Middle School Library, where a new half-wall will be built to delineate a computer lab area.

If you are used to the slamming of locker doors and the chatter of hundreds of students, then the halls of Bexley’s schools in the summer are eerily quiet.

Just a little investigation, however, reveals various beehives of activity in and around the school buildings.

On the second floor of Bexley High School, turn into the doorway of Room 4262 and you will happen upon a tense scene of strategizing and gamesmanship. The 12 students in the class of Social Studies teacher Mike Featherstone work through a series of interactive historical case studies, determining the course of European and world history.

The students assume the roles of world leaders and make critical decisions by negotiating, cooperating and even betraying each other.

The quarter-credit course, “Case Studies in History: Strategy and Diplomacy,” relies on readings, primary sources and games like “Origins, the Game of International Power and Politics.”

The class investigates the wars of the Protestant Reformation through a game called “Here I Stand.” They consider 18th century Europe via “Struggle of Empires.”

On one recent morning, Featherstone illuminated a move in the class game by talking about the concept of an “understanding” between two countries.

“The general point here is that, with an understanding, you have enough political capital or diplomatic muscle to get something accomplished,” he explained.

“One country says to another, ‘I need this from you,’ and you really take it seriously.”

He then discussed the concept in an historical context, using Hitler’s diplomatic moves with Great Britain as an example.

The four-hour class meets for two straight weeks and gives students the time to delve deeply into ideas and historical periods that they may have only skimmed over in a regular social studies class.

Summer also allows the time and space for school district op-

Community Supported Agriculture serves both customers, farmers

By JESSICA WHITE ThisWeek Community Newspapers

For ultimate summer freshness, more people are skipping the farmers market and going straight to the farmer.

Marcia Bergefurd and her husband are selling a large portion of their crops at a new community supported agriculture group (CSA) that was started through Agudas Achim synagogue in Bexley. This season, 42 families joined the CSA and paid membership fees up front.

In return, they receive bags of seasonal produce each week throughout the farming season — in this case, June through October.

So far, members have found broccoli, bok choy, zucchini, yellow squash and garlic in their bags.

The later season will also bring fresh fruit. Membership fees were $340 or $590 depending on the preferred portion size.

Ariel Kohane, who works at Agudas Achim and started the CSA, said the organization is a great way for consumers to buy local, seasonal food directly from a farmer.

“The farmer has to be honest,” she said. “Now I know where my food comes from, I’m talking to the farmer and I get to visit their farm whenever I want. There’s transparency. They’re held accountable.”

Kohane said for Agudas Achim, the CSA is also about community and spirituality.

“We are cultivators of the earth,”

she said. “We have this incredible ability to create. It’s powerful, and it’s also dangerous.”

Kohane said much of the danger exists in major food-production corporations.

“It’s an industry to make money, like anything else, and when they can cut corners, they will,” she said. “At some point you realize you can’t honestly have a mango in February without tampering with Mother Nature.”

Even if the mango is from Southeast Asia and chemical-free, Kohane said, consumers often don’t think about the carbon footprint they’re making by bringing it here.

“How much fuel or oil was taken to fly that mango to my Columbus, Ohio, supermarket?” she said. “I’m supporting corporations whose values I might not ordinarily back.”

Kohane said her goal is to start shifting expectations for food and to bring business back to the locals.

Bergefurd, whose farm is an hour south of Bexley in Wilmington, said CSAs are an economic advantage for farmers because farmers receive payment before the harvesting season begins. That way, they avoid debt when replacing seeds and supplies, she said.

Bergefurd has been involved in several CSAs in Columbus and Cincinnati for three seasons — the Agudas Achim group being her latest addition.

“So far it has been very successful,” she said. “This has probably been the hardest year just because it’s been the wettest year since we’ve started. This type of rain hasn’t occurred in 129 years, so hopefully we won’t ever see it again!”

Bergefurd said rain created a setback in harvesting, but customers haven’t seemed to notice.

“I think it’s wonderful,” said CSA member Allan Zelman. “It’s a great way to get fresh food.”

Bexley City Schools

Eikenberry named business office manager John Eikenberry has been approved by the Bexley City School District Board of Education as the new business office manager.

Eikenberry, a Bexley resident with a son attending Bexley High School, has been the director of office services at the American Motorcyclist Association in Pickerington since 2000.

The new business office manager was hired at an annual salary of $60,500, according to school district treasurer Chris Essman. The District will pay 9.5 percent of the total 10 percent of his retirement cost as a part of the compensation package – the

same as all other administrators in Bexley receive. He is also eligible to sign up for health insurance and dental insurance. The district pays 100 percent of the dental insurance for all full-time staff and 90 percent for health insurance.

He will assume some of the duties of Barry Zwick, the district’s outgoing director of operations. Zwick, who retired in 2010, remained with the school district this past year, while a search was conducted for his replacement and some central office duties were realigned.

Eikenberry will report directly to super-

intendent Michael Johnson.

The position of business office manager evolved as part of a central office restructuring designed to increase efficiencies and effectiveness.

A graduate of the University of Dayton with a degree in management, Eikenberry has also previously worked in the areas of procurement and production planning for various manufacturing suppliers. He holds a business manager license issued by the Ohio Department of Education.

There were 57 applicants for the job, and nine candidates were interviewed.

Eagles U-16 defense falters in Regional Cup final

By AARON BLANKENSHIP ThisWeek Community Newspapers

With defenders Gabby Byorth, Makenzie Costner, Nicole Hopkins and Haley Lehmkuhl and goalkeeper Anna Rosa James-Buhigas leading the way, the Ohio Premier Eagles Under16 girls soccer team had shutouts in each of its first four Midwest Regional Cup games in Fox Cities, Wis. The defense wasn’t as strong in the final, when the Eagles allowed two goals in the first 12 minutes and lost to the Michigan Hawks 2-0 on June 29.

“We hadn’t given up a goal the entire tournament, so we were in shock when we gave up two so quickly,” coach Chris King said.

“We conceded a soft goal off a corner kick seven minutes into the game and the kids were a bit taken aback by that. Five minutes later, one of their players took a bad touch on the ball, ran into one of our defenders and went down, and the ref bit on it and gave her a penalty kick, which they scored on.”

The Eagles switched from a twoforward to a three-forward formation

in the second half, but the Hawks goalkeeper made saves on shots by Bailey Wilson, Emily Byorth and Lindsay Agnew.

King said that his team’s 1-0 win over Eclipse Select of Illinois on penalty kicks in its final pool-play game on June 27 and its 4-0 victory over KCFC Force of Kansas in a semifinal on June 28 drained his players of much-needed energy heading into the final.

“We had a tougher path to reach the final than the Hawks had and we just didn’t have enough left in the tank to

come back and beat them after we fell behind 2-0,” King said. “We pressed every ball in the second half and we had some good chances, but we couldn’t finish them. We had to beat two of the best teams in the nation the past two days just to make it here, and the Hawks weren’t really tested until they played us.”

In the semifinal, the Eagles beat KCFC Force to avenge a 3-2 loss to the same team in a Regional Cup poolplay game a year ago.

“They manhandled us on the field to knock us out of the tournament last

year, but we turned the tables on them and shocked them with how physical we were,” King said.

Five minutes into the game, Hopkins stopped the ball from going over the Eagles’ goal line and cleared it to midfield.

Playing into a strong wind, the Eagles battled to a scoreless tie at halftime. They then dominated the second half with the wind at their backs.

Agnew scored three consecutive goals and Elise Jones scored with three See SOCCER, page B2

Commentary

Strong mindset key for athletes Ask any athlete, at any level, about the importance of the mental side of sports and he or she will say that believing in oneself is critical to success.

This week, the central Ohio high school student-athletes in my summer series talk about how self-conLARRY fidence imLARSON pacts their performance.

Morgan Ransom, Columbus Academy, golf: “Confidence is one of the most vital things to have when playing a sport. If you don’t believe in yourself then you will never reach your full potential.”

Jake Blankenship, Gahanna, pole vault: “If you don’t believe in yourself, your body will do what your mind thinks, so you won’t progress. Just like my coach says, ‘Your body is stupid and it is up to your mind.’”

Faith Washington, Reynoldsburg, track: “I was told, ‘If you think you’ll lose, you’ve lost,’ and it seems to be that every time I thought that way, it happened.”

Mary Wells, Westerville Central, bowling: “You absolutely have to be confident in yourself and in your ability to perform under pressure.”

Michela Paradiso, Upper Arlington, soccer and basketball: “I think it is important to believe in yourself and have confidence, but never be cocky and arrogant. Teammates are the most important part in sports and without each and every teammate I would have never achieved anything.”

Jimmy Gammill, New Albany, football: “If you don’t think you can do it, you won’t be able to do it. If you don’t believe in your abilities, nobody else will either.

You shouldn’t rely on others to build that confidence. It has to be you believing in yourself.”

Napoleon Bell, Hartley football and wrestling: “One can only perform to their own expectations. If they expect highly of themselves and know they can perform highly then they will perform highly.”

Austin Cuervo, St. Charles, golf: “Self-confidence gives me comfort and makes me achieve what I want to achieve. I believe in what I do and know I can do it, which is why I trust my game and just go out and compete.”

Chase Delande, Hilliard Davidson, football and wrestling: “Self-confidence is huge when it is time to perform. If you don’t have any self-confidence then you’re out of luck and you are going to have a lot of trouble trying to do what you want to do.”

Next week, the student-athletes will tell you about the qualities they like best in a coach.

I’ll see you at a game.

Many factors cause dip in area Legion teams

By BRAD EMERINE ThisWeek Community Newspapers

How long does it take a trend to become the norm?

In the past few years, central Ohio baseball players have started taking their talents to travel squads at the expense of American Legion teams.

The players, high school coaches and Legion coaches debate the reasons for the change, but it doesn’t appear to be something that can be easily resolved.

“The number of teams has decreased, but I wouldn’t say the talent has nec-

essarily decreased that much,” said Michael Higgins, baseball chairman in Legion District 12. “I think we peaked a few years back when we had a dozen or more teams in District 12. Now we have six teams in the Senior Division and we have four teams in the Junior Division, which is in its second season of being officially recognized by American Legion.

“When we had 12 (Senior Division) teams, people around the state were amazed. I think the increase to 12 teams was the abnormality, not the decrease in posts we’re now experiencing.”

ECONOMIC WOES Higgins said one of the big reasons for fewer posts offering baseball is the weak economy.

“The economy has definitely played a role because many of the posts can’t afford to play in tournaments every weekend in addition to the league play during the week,” Higgins said. “I also think the increasing number of participants in sports such as soccer and lacrosse has taken away some of our kids.”

About a dozen years ago, Newark Post 85 ran into a similar problem and decided to only fund a few of its team’s tour-

naments. The area’s baseball gurus got together and formed the Licking County Athletics. After a few separate years, the team and Post 85 reunited and added a few other sponsors. The Athletics played a Legion schedule, a Babe Ruth schedule and also played in select elite tournaments.

Pickerington Post 283 is in the same position, playing a schedule similar to what the Athletics played in the past.

“Our post is the reason we still have a true Legion team,” coach Chris Weber said. “They support us financially way See LEGION, page B2

Brian Hanks of Worthington Post 239 throws to first base to record an out during a game against Westerville Post 171C on June 15. Post 239 is among several area Legion squads affected by the increasing popularity of travel teams.

LEGION Continued from page B1 beyond what 90 percent of other posts in Ohio do. They believe in Legion baseball and baseball has brought good publicity to our post.”

Because of Post 283’s financial support, the team plays other travel squads and competes in a number of elite tournaments.

“We’re in a special situation where our post supports us well financially,” Weber said. “Some posts just don’t have the money to send the team all over the state and the Midwest.”

PHILOSOPHICAL DIFFERENCES

While the bad economy can be blamed for many things, there is more to this issue.

There is a philosophical difference between Legion baseball and high school baseball coaches.

“The reason for the decline (in Legion baseball), in my opinion, is that there are too many baseball teams in central Ohio at this age,” Worthington Post 239 coach Jim Townsend said. “I think the talent is diluted and the result seems to be that Legion is not as competitive as it once was.

“I think the high school coaches chose the easy way out and turned posts into an extension of the spring season. They want their kids playing together and that has ruined Legion baseball in central Ohio. Outside of central Ohio, Legion remains very competitive.”

Post 239 went 2-2 in the state tournament last season. But Thomas Worthington coach Stephen Gussler, Worthington Kilbourne coach Jeff Boulware, Watterson coach Scott Manahan and Upper Arlington coach Matt Middleton then decided to form a travel team, Team Columbus.

“There are multiple reasons for choosing not to play Legion this year,” Middleton said. “It has become a form of high school-only ball and the play is so inconsistent. We would beat up on somebody one day and then get beaten up the next day. The level of play was so drastic and inconsistent that, in this sport, you can get bored with it rather quickly.

“In Columbus, it’s been about keeping the younger guys together from the same high school. In Upper Arlington, we kept the freshmen together and just played U-15 travel ball. But the older they

get, you want them competing and being successful playing with and against strong competition.”

With the high school season being short in Ohio, it is difficult to put the blame solely on high school coaches, Middleton said.

“It’s all about how much improvement you can make in the offseason,” he said. “Truthfully, the high school season is so short, and when you have two straight weeks of rainouts, you really accomplish very little. You really need to make your jump in improvement during the summer. “(The Team Columbus) schedule is such that we’re playing select teams and we’re playing the true Legion teams in these tournaments. That’s what we want.”

IT’S ALL ABOUT THE KIDS

what your post allows. In our case, we’re able to do both. We have played in those same tournaments with travel teams.”

Yahn also pointed out a schedule difference.

“In Legion, you’d play one league game every other night or something, but in these tournaments we play three to five games a weekend and less during the week,” Yahn said. “We can do more lifting for football, go to more camps and do other high school things during the week.”

OBLIGATIONS TO PLAYERS

Another big difference between most travel teams and Legion teams is the size of the roster.

“Travel teams generally use 11 or 12 players all summer,” Weber said. “At Post 283, we have great players competing every day for the chance to get into the lineup. Legion rosters can be deeper and more competitive because the players have to earn their way into the lineup. And that’s the way it will be for the kids who go on to play in college.”

That means a player who is slumping or not performing well can be substituted without consternation.

“At Post 283, the best players play,” Weber said. “It doesn’t matter how much money their parents pay or what their parents do for a living. I’m not saying all travel teams are like that, but it doesn’t matter here.”

In travel ball, there is more opportunity for coaches to be loyal to players and maybe even some favoritism when it comes to positions played based on how much money is invested by a player’s parents, or the money donated by a parent’s employer.

“Let’s face it. There are probably some real good players in central Ohio who don’t play travel ball because his parents can’t afford it,” Weber said.

For all their differences, Legion and travel baseball have one thing in common — trying to improve players.

Nuances and financial times may change, and that leaves the door open for Legion to eventually return to some of its better years in central Ohio.

The Licking County Athletics, who lost their Babe Ruth affiliation at the conclusion of last season, also chose not to return to Legion this season and are now a travel team.

“We went with a younger team with no 19-year-olds or college players this season,” coach Adam Arcuri said. “We think we have a lot of boys who plan to play in college and we wanted them to play against elite and select teams who also have older players. It’s a gauge as to where they are and where they need to be if they want to continue to play the game.”

Derek Yahn, a Heath senior who plays for the Athletics, said the team is enjoying the challenge.

“This allows us to travel out of town more often and we’re hanging out and becoming friends and I think that’s showing on the diamond,” Yahn said. “We’re a younger team competing against Legion teams with college players and in tournaments against older players, too. I think it will help prepare us for college baseball better. We played in a Columbus Cobras tournament against a pitcher from Xavier and a player from Ohio State.”

Weber, the Pickerington Post 283 coach, said many of the kids who choose travel ball believe they get to play on a bigger stage with more college scouts and recruiters in attendance.

“They want to go to showcases where they think they can be seen,” Weber said. “One way to do that is through travel baseball. bemerine@thisweeknews.com It’s all about what you want and www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Bernard Master/Wickertree Tennis Classic

Challenging field attracts top-flight players

By PAUL BATTERSON ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Bernard Master/Wickertree Tennis Classic, one of the area’s oldest doubles tournaments, offers close to $6,000 in prize money.

But according to Wickertree Tennis Club manager Joe Foley, the cash incentives aren’t what drive the competition in the tournament, which will be held Saturday and Sunday, July 910, at the club, 5760 Maple Canyon Ave. “You’re not going to able to buy a new car (with the prize money), but the tournament is one of the most prestigious tournaments around,� Foley said. “Players know they’re going to have to get through a quality field of opponents just to win it. There’s not going to be an easy draw for anyone.�

Since its inception in 1978, the

Bernard Master doubles tournament not only has drawn some of the best players in central Ohio but representatives from 15 to 20 countries in addition to former state champions, NCAA All-Americans, Davis Cup players and Olympians. “We’re always impressed with the level of talent that comes out every year,� said Ravi Thenappan, who coowns the Wickertree Tennis Club with Brandon Bertsch. “We have a lot of different level people play in this tournament.�

Based on the number of entrants, the tournament has been organized into five divisions: open, 35-and-over, 45-and-over and 55-and-over divisions for men and an open division for women.

In the men’s open division, members of the winning doubles team receive $800 apiece while the runners-

TOP fourth state title in the event the next day in 54.17 seconds. Fishback also swam on two staterecord relays, the 200 medley (1:43.59) and the 200 freestyle (1:34.24).

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 state-ranked London in the second round of the Division II district tournament.

Watkins Memorial was just 1-19 entering the matchup but got 57 points from Johnson, who made 19 of 34 from floor, including eight 3pointers, and was 11-for-15 from the free-throw line. His point total broke the all-divisions district tournament scoring mark.

Johnson added eight rebounds, six steals and five assists.

Khalilah Carpenter, Brookhaven girls track and field (June 2-3, 2000) — At the 2000 Division I state meet in Dayton Welcome Stadium, the junior broke the meet and state records in the 100 meters with a time of 11.59 seconds on June 2. That time eclipsed her 1998 meet record of 11.74 and broke the all-time mark of 11.63 set in 1993 by Dayton Dunbar’s Danielle Twitty.

The next day, she won the 100 in 11.71 and captured the 200 title in 23.69, a time that lowered the state mark she already held. Carpenter also helped Brookhaven’s 400 relay to a seventh-place finish.

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 to earn the City League-Red Division title and a Division II playoff berth as the senior and future Ohio State running back rushed for 411 yards and eight touchdowns on 19 carries. He had six firsthalf touchdowns and added scoring runs of 57 and 71 yards in the second half.

LaToya Turner, Pickerington girls basketball (March 19, 1999) — The 6-foot-4 senior helped the Tigers advance to the Division I state final and exact revenge for a painful defeat with her 29-point performance in a 51-35 win over Wadsworth.

They had lost to the Grizzlies in a 1997 state semifinal.

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. The Tigers beat Mason 46-30 the next day to earn their sixth state title.

Darcy Fishback, Upper Arlington girls swimming (Feb. 27-28, 2009) — The 2009 Division I state meet in Canton was full of memories for this senior as she led the Golden Bears to their fifth consecutive team championship.

During preliminaries Feb. 27, Fishback broke the state record in the 100-yard butterfly when she finished in 53.38 seconds. She won her www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Last year, Ohio State graduates Ross Wilson and Matthew Allare defeated Ohio State graduate Shuhei Uzawa and Steven Williams, who will be a senior for the Buckeyes this fall, 7-5, 6-2 to win the men’s open title.

Ohio State’s Kara Cecil, who will be a junior this fall, and graduate Christina Keesey defeated Niki Flower and Christiana Raymond 6-2, 7-5 and lost to Miami University’s Stephanie Danesis and Megan Martzolf 3-6, 63, 3-6 but won the women’s open on a tiebreaker.

Smith 6-4, 6-1 to win the men’s 35and-over tournament, while Darrin Heinz and Bill Schneider defeated Peter Mudre and Andrew Sinclair 64, 6-2 to capture the men’s 45-andover bracket. There was no 55-andover bracket last season.

That it is a doubles-only tournament intrigues some of the entrants. “Most of the guys in the tournament usually play singles, so it’s always different for them to play doubles,� Foley said. “It’s a different type of game. Someone told me once (that) ‘singles is chess, doubles is war.’ In singles, there’s a lot of strategy and moving your opponent around to open up shots. Doubles is high-speed, quick reaction tennis.�
