CAC officers retain current posts By KEVIN PARKS ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Clintonville Area Commission members decided to stay with the cards they’d been dealt, although they toyed with the idea of swapping kings. The existing slate of officers were all returned to those duties for another year at last week’s annual reorganization meeting, which also saw the seating of two new members, Rob Wood for District 1 and in District 2, Nancy Kuhel. The vote to keep vice chairman Nick Cipiti of District 5, secretary Jennifer

Don’t expect a slowdown of traffic on North High Street any time soon. Although Clintonville Area Commission members have been talking for years about getting the speed limit on the neighborhood’s major artery reduced from the current 35 miles an hour to 25 miles an hour, District 5 representative Nick Cipiti advised them last week not to hold their collective breath. The desire for a reduction in the speed limit was given recent impetus by the death of resident Molly Palsgrove Davis, who was killed in a highspeed crash on March 15. After Mike Folmar, the District 4 representative and co-chairman with Cipiti of the planning and development committee, gave a report at last week’s commission meeting on continued efforts at reducing the speed limit on North High Street to what it is in many other parts of the city, Cipiti announced the results of a meeting he’d had that day with two officials with the Public Service Department. While Folmar said that city officials had indicated structural changes to North High Street, such as speed “bump-outs,” might be a step toward cutting the legal limit to 25 miles an hour, Cipiti said that he was told in no uncertain terms that nothing of that nature could happen without an engineering study. Further, Cipiti said the officials informed him that no funds are available now or for the next five years to pay for such a study. “If we want it done, we’d have to pay for it ourselves,” Cipiti said. Officials weren’t being mean or anything, the

Local Art Walk map to come out next month By KEVIN PARKS ThisWeek Community Newspapers

A map intended to get people up and walking in parts of Clintonville by informing them where public art, examples of unique architecture and historic sites can be found should be ready for distribution in early August. Betsy A. Pandora, healthy places coordinator for Columbus Public

Health, appeared at last week’s Clintonville Area Commission meeting. The neighborhood will, when the “Columbus Arts Walks, Clintonville” map is completed, become the ninth section of the city to have one, joining the Near East Side, Arena District, Discovery District, Franklinton, German Village, Statehouse area, Short North and University District. “We wanted Clintonville to be a

part of this, as well,” the healthy places coordinator said. Pandora provided each commission member with a draft version of the proposed walks for Clintonville, which cover historic North Broadway, North High Street south of Oakland Park Avenue and the Crestview area. The Art Walks build upon a Columbus Public Health concept to devise

Artists form group to have studio, with lots of extras By KEVIN PARKS ThisWeek Community Newspapers

“It seemed to me like it was a supportive community of creative people,” offered Seth Josephson, one of the newest to join the group. Here’s how the itlookslikeitsopen members describe themselves on their website: “We are a group of artists and designers working to make art and experiences happen.” And that, in all its glorious ambiguity, is the long and the short of it. Not a lot of limits there and these definitely aren’t your grandparents’ artists, either. At almost assuredly no point in their lengthy discussions did Manet turn to Renoir and Cezanne and Gauguin and By Lorrie Cecil/ThisWeek Monet and say, “Did you guys see the sauerkraut thing that he did?” Ryan Agnew (left), Aimee Sones, Mike Shiflet, Seth Josephson, Herb Vincent Peterson and Jessica Larva are all

It doesn’t look like it’s open. But it is, a lot, and has been for around two years at 13 E. Tulane Road, just up from Cup o’ Joe. First of all, itlookslikeitsopen — that’s the name, not a typo, although SpellCheck hates it — is not a studio. All of the relatively youthful artists who have come together to operate out of the space agree on that. What it is gets a whole lot more complicated. It’s not so much a source of disagreement among the itlookslikeitsopen members. It’s just that what their group is all about is difficult to describe. “It’s an artists’ studio space,” offered member Aimee Sones. “A studio with expanded use,” put in artists whose work will be shown in “itlookslikeitsopen,” a new studio and exhibition space at 13 E. Tulane Road. Mike Shiflet. See ARTISTS FORM GROUP, page A2 Not pictured is Jesse Hemminger.

Artists form group to have studio, with extras ART WALK MAP Continued from page A1

But that’s exactly what popped out of Ryan Agnew’s mouth during a group interview last week about a recent installation by absent member Jesse Hemminger, who created mobility in the work using the small electrical charge that can be derived from pickled cabbage. For one thing, none of these artists ARE just one thing. “We all have broader practices,” Sones said. “Each of us has more than one medium or more than one practice we’re interested in.” The current lineup of itlookslikeitsopen members includes Sones of Columbus, Herb Vincent Peterson of the Westgate neighborhood, Northland resident Jessica Larva, Agnew of Old North Columbus and Clintonville residents Shiflet, Josephson and Hemminger. They’re all in their 30s, but just barely; Agnew, at 33, is the oldest while the rest are all either 31 or 32. What has become an intriguingly named non-gallery in the former home of Skreened T-shirt shop, now on North High Street, dates back several years to a time when Peterson and fellow founder Jamie Boyle, who has since moved away, were working together at a studio south of German Village.

They would, as friends will, “come up with crazy ideas,” Peterson recalled. “Really, it was all about trying to make money in some crazy ways,” he said. “One day I said, ‘Well, we need a place to make all these things. I need a place or I’m going to die.’ ” They couldn’t let that happen so Boyle and Peterson began searching for a place, soon assisted by Agnew. “Really, what it was about, I missed the camaraderie of graduate school,” Peterson said. “We knew that as a group we could pull (money) together and have a place worth being at.” The first place they found, near the intersection of Maynard Avenue and Summit Street, didn’t quite come up to that threshold. “It had some structural problems,” Peterson said, and they soon got out of the lease. Another one time itlookslikeitsopen member since departed, Adele Mattern, used to live a short distance from the original location for Skreened and became aware when the space became vacant. “We lucked out,” Agnew said. Larva joined itlookslikeitsopen after one of the previous members moved on. She knew Peterson from their days at Ohio Dominican University.

“I wanted to be part of the conversation they were having,” she said. “Those conversations are really important to our practice,” Peterson said. These artists use a broad brush for what they consider art to be. Josephson, for example, leads monthly meditation classes in the East Tulane space. Since opening itlookslikeitsopen, the members have put on shows — although it’s definitely not a gallery — had yoga classes, held “video support group” meetings, hosted improvisation gatherings, put on concerts and more, according to Sones. The key to their identity, she said, is that they have no specific identity. That clears that up. But what about the name? “We never wanted to be a brand, but we branded ourselves,” Peterson said. “I don’t really know how to explain it. We needed a website. We wanted a website.” Since everyone had separate ideas of what they wanted and needed the space to be other, other than not a gallery, many different ideas were kicked around, and somehow itlookslikeitsopen came out on top. “We never wanted to be one specific space,” Peterson said. What they would like to be, in the words of Shiflet, who holds

Tuesday evening events for sound artists, is the “epicenter for young, emerging artists.” “I think the emerging part is a very important part of that,” Sones commented. To that end, itlookslikeitsopen members have hosted receptions for shows by young artists. “Sometimes it’s more important for the artists to see their work more than anyone else,” Larva said. “When they can see their own work on the wall, it helps them even if there wasn’t a reception.” By the same token, it hasn’t been all young artists. “We’ve also allowed this space to be a forum for older artists who have mentored us,” Agnew said. One thing they don’t do is rent out the space. “No weddings or bar mitzvahs,” Larva said. People interested in seeing art and experiences happen might want to stop by 13 E. Tulane Road sometime. It might be open, looks notwithstanding.

Crestview area walkers can take in examples of bungalows, the oldest home in the neighborhood and the Calumet viaduct. The Columbus Art Walks program began in 2010, according to Pandora. The Clintonville walk was developed with the help of local residents and Clintonville Historic Society president Mary Rodgers. It is hoped the maps will bring people to Clintonville and perhaps improve business for local merchants, according to Pandora. Small signs have been installed in the public right of way and on utility poles for some of the Art Walks, she added. “This is way cool,” commented Nick Cipiti, the CAC’s District 5 representative. “I can’t way to give it a try.” Commission chairman John DeFourny pointed out that the draft map for Clintonville doesn’t include the northern portion of the neighborhood. “It’s not meant to be a catalog of everything,” Pandora said. “It’s meant to be a sample.” Pandora added that she would be working with Mayor Michael B. Coleman’s environmental steward and Green Spot program to develop a “Green Walk” for north Clintonville. kparks@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

ThisWeek Community Newspapers shootout on Genesee Avenue with keep society civil.”

Moments after receiving commendations from state Sen. Jim Hughes and the Clintonville Area Commission last week, a Columbus Division of Police officer who was seriously wounded in the line of duty on April 30 hastened to point out that others were also injured that morning. “It wasn’t a one-person deal,” said officer John Sullivan, who spent a dozen of his 23 years on the force assigned to the precinct that covers Clintonville. Sullivan, 58, was accompanied by his wife and two daughters as he was called to the front of the CAC meeting room during the July session. District 7 representative Dave Southan, the panel’s safety liaison, made the arrangements for the Senate and commission proclamations for Sullivan, who was hit once in each shoulder as

Randle L. Roberts II, 27. Roberts, according to published reports, was believed to have killed four members of a family, all relatives of his wife’s, in Adams County the night of April 29 before driving to Columbus that morning and crashing his pickup truck through the fence of a church. Also wounded in the hail of gunfire that erupted at the North Linden home were Sgts. Robert Forsythe and Tyron Hollis. Sullivan received a standing ovation from those present at last week’s area commission meeting when he was summoned to listen as Hughes, (R-Columbus), read from the Senate proclamation. “Very few of us have a job, you don’t know if you’re coming home that night,” Hughes commented. “This man, as well as all law enforcement officers,

Hughes told Sullivan he was pleased the officer was continuing to heal from his wounds. “Your actions are deserving of high praise,” the state senator said. In presenting Sullivan with the CAC commendation, Southan said that the officer had patrolled the streets of Clintonville for “many, many years” before being assigned to another precinct as part of a widespread reorganization of the division. During his brief remarks, Sullivan made it clear that the wounds he suffered April 30 were not in vain. “We did get the bad guy,” he said. “He’d killed four people the night before and we had to do something.” Sullivan has been with the department since Dec. 13, 1987. kparks@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

CAC unanimously OKs request for variance An Oakland Park Avenue resident has received the Clintonville Area Commission’s blessing to construct a carport and two-story room addition, but he just better never try to rent that room out. In recommending approval for variance requests to side-yard setbacks, the commission’s zoning and variance committee imposed three conditions. The first involved the elevations for the proposed work being stamped and signed by chairman John DeFourny. “The elevations are what’s important,” zoning and variance committee co-chairwoman Sandy Simbro said. The other two, that the added room have no running water or outside entrance, are intended to prevent it from ever being used as a rental unit, according to Simbro. Simbro said that she and her committee members have no concerns the present owners, Dou-

glas and Laura Ball, would ever try to rent the room, which would not be allowed under city regulations anyway. However, Simbro pointed out that the variance goes with the property, not the owner, and the conditions were intended to prevent some future owner from even being tempted to turn the room addition into a rental unit. The side yard variances, from 10 feet to 8 feet in one instance and 5 feet to 3 feet in the other, were required because the proposed carport would otherwise have been too narrow, Simbro told commission members. Douglas Ball was present at the meeting but was not called upon to speak. The commission members voted 9-0 to accept the committee’s recommendation. The request goes before the city’s Board of Zoning Appeals for final approval later this month. — Kevin Parks

NORTH HIGH STREET Continued from page A1 committee co-chairman hastened to add, but rather were just stating the reality of the situation. Folmar said that Republican mayoral candidate Earl Smith, onetime spokesman for the Columbus Division of Police, had attended a planning and de-

velopment meeting at which the High Street speed limit issue was raised. Smith suggested requesting enhanced enforcement of the current speed limit. That’s already happening, according to CAC chairman John DeFourny. He said that he observed a whole host of motorists

Goodwill Columbus team boasts own Gold Medalist Jeff Brewer traveled to Athens, Greece, late last month as a Special Olympics athlete representing Goodwill Columbus. The Clintonville resident, who works in the Northland area, came home a Gold Medalist. A sign-carrying delegation of Goodwill employees and individuals with developmental disabilities gathered last week in the Food Court on the ticketing level of the Port Columbus International Airport to cheer and welcome Brewer, 37, back from the 2011 Special Olympics World Games. “Jeff not only ran his personal best at 1:01 seconds in the 400meter run, but he became a world champion,” Steve Weaver, the coordinator of athletic programs at Goodwill and Brewer’s coach for all Special Olympic events, said in a statement. Weaver witnessed Brewer’s victory in Athens, the birthplace of the Olympics. “Jeff was like a young boy who received a precious gift as he beamed from ear to ear with joy … and showed everyone his gold medal,” Weaver was quoted as saying. “It was fantastic to see.”

Ohio Elite squad earns tournament title By FRANK DiRENNA ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The ceremonial drenching — and the victory — must have been quite refreshing for Ohio Elite 14-and-under baseball coach David Lee. Ohio Elite beat the Ohio Force of Cincinnati 7-1 in the Buckeye Elite Showcase Tournament 14-and-under championship game on July 10 at Olentangy High School. As the team celebrated in the outfield on a hot afternoon, players poured a cooler of water over Lee.

Ohio Elite improved to 41-9 this season. Pitcher Brad Wilson, who will attend Northridge, pitched a complete game. He allowed six hits, struck out eight and walked one. “We’re starting to come together as a team,” Wilson said. “We’ve been having trouble the first couple of weeks, but everybody is starting to hit at the same time, everybody is fielding, all of our pitching is coming together. We’re coming together very well.” Cameron Comer’s RBI single scored Kyle Galyk with the game’s first run in

the fifth inning. “We just came out and hit the ball like we knew how to, played like we knew how to and we knew we’d win,” said Comer, who attends Olentangy Liberty. Ohio Elite added three runs in the sixth, highlighted by Tyrell Harris’two-run single, and three runs in the seventh, with Comer delivering a two-run single. Second baseman Evan Lee, the coach’s son, made a key defensive play when he caught a line drive and doubled off Force leadoff batter Jordan Ramey at third base in the fourth inning to keep the game scoreless.

Ohio Elite advanced to the title game by beating the East Side Irish 18-5 in six innings, the Great Lakes Giants 10-2, the Academy Stars of Buffalo 3-2 and Team New Era of Buffalo 16-5 in five innings. Ohio Elite received a championship T-shirt, plaque and commemorative bat. “We’ve really peaked the last couple of weeks,” coach Lee said. “Brad pitched a complete game. We knew coming in he was one of our top pitchers. ... The best thing with our staff is we’re eight, nine deep and they all throw.” •The Columbus Cobras 18-and-under team reached a semifinal but lost to the

Lookouts of Alliance 4-1 on July 10 at Dublin Jerome. The Cobras advanced to the semifinal round with a come-from-behind 5-4 win over Steve’s Sports of Mayfield. Trailing 4-2 with two outs in the seventh inning, the Cobras’ Kendall Johnson hit a routine fly ball to left fielder Drew Teller, who dropped it, allowing the tying runs to score. Gahanna graduate Josh Bokor, who recently completed his freshman season at Ohio State, singled to score Johnson See BASEBALL, page B3

Commentary

Athletes describe ideal coach One of the most critical aspects in the development of a young person comes when an older individual provides a model on how to grow and be successful. While parents set the standard for influencing their daughters and sons, coaches can have an enorLARRY mous impact on how stuLARSON dent-athletes perceive themselves, how hard they want to work to get better and how they make adjustments when things go right or wrong. This week, the high school student-athletes writing in my summer series detail the qualities they like best in their coaches. Napoleon Bell, Hartley, football and wrestling: “I like a coach whose top goals are not only the success of the team but also are geared towards the betterment of the athletes and people around him.” Morgan Ransom, Columbus Academy, golf: “I love having a coach who wants what is best for me and is willing to push me to be the best. It is also important that a coach is there for you on a bad day.” Mary Wells, Westerville Central, bowling: “To me, the key things for being a successful coach is knowledge of the sport and being patient with the athlete.” Michela Paradiso, Upper Arlington, soccer and basketball: “I like an intense coach who coaches me to improve every day and who knows the potential of his or her players and refuses to let them fall short.” Jimmy Gammill, New Albany, football: “I like coaches who have a sense of humor and who are relaxed, but at the same time with that coach, you know you can’t slack off and always have to work hard.” Jake Blankenship, Gahanna, pole vault: “What is important to me is that a coach has experience in pole vaulting and has had multiple different inputs from other coaches and how to be successful in vaulting.” Austin Cuervo, St. Charles, golf: “I like a coach that is laid back and easy going, but is always confident in their team and always wants to compete at the highest level of play.”

Parcher’s influence goes beyond field By FRANK DiRENNA ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Rick Parcher has been an ambassador and teacher of baseball for 50 years. He not only instructs his players on the finer points of the game, but provides “life lessons” by reading poems and stories to help emphasize his points. “There are so many life lessons in baseball,” said the 71-year-old Parcher, who

coaches Tree of Life Christian School in the spring and the North Columbus Comets in the summer. “A lot of (the lessons) you learn the hard way — learning to deal with victory and defeat, success and failure. You learn how to make your own needs secondary to those of the team. “Those things all come automatically with athletics, but I believe life lessons that are learned are learned more carefully, definitely and effectively if the

process is guided by the coach, so I do a lot of talking.” Parcher, who has coached at Tree of Life since 1995, winning four MOCAL championships, helped form the Comets in 1962 during his senior year at the University of Wisconsin. The team’s first home field was at Whetstone Park. The Under-14 travel team now is a member of the Central Ohio Youth Base-

ball League. The Comets improved to 16-8 with a 14-4, five-inning win over the Grove City Vipers on July 6 at Ridgeview Middle School, which has been the team’s home since 1975. Parcher was part of a group that helped build four fields at Ridgeview. The complex now has seven fields. See PARCHER, page B2

Top Individual Performances: No. 5

Backes powered Bears’ run to state title By PATRICK DOLAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

In the days leading up to the 2000 Division I state championship game between the Upper Arlington High School football team and Solon, Golden Bears running back and safety Jeff Backes was named Ohio’s Mr. Football. More than 10 years later, Backes admits that he felt some additional pressure to play well because of the award. However, he didn’t let the pressure get the best of him as he rushed for 183 yards The Columbus Dispatch file photo and two touchdowns on 32 carJeff Backes rushed for 183 yards and had a game-saving intercep- ries and preserved a 15-9 victoSee LARSON, page B2 tion in a 15-9 win over Solon in the 2000 Division I state final. ry on Dec. 2, 2000, at Fawcett

Stadium in Canton with an interception with less than a minute remaining. UA finished 15-0 and became the first central Ohio team to win the big-school state title since the inception of the playoffs in 1972. “No other Mr. Football (honorees) had won the state championship, so in a way there was some added pressure,” said Backes, a 2001 UA graduate who went on to play for Northwestern University. “But I was confident in my teammates and my own abilities.” Darrell Mayne, who was UA’s coach at the time, would have preferred the Mr. Football announcement to have been made

after the championship game. “As a coach, you don’t want one of your (players) to have that honor bestowed on them before a big game like that,” said Mayne, who coached the Bears from 1998-2004. “That just adds to the adrenaline flow of the opponent. But what Jeff did that game is a testament to his toughness because he rose to that challenge. “It was a tremendous performance on his part. He had a great supporting cast, but nonetheless it was a great performance. Any time you rush for 180 yards in a Division I state championship game, I think that’s a superior See BACKES, page B2

Bernard Master Tennis Classic

Witsken, Schiller defeat OSU duo in open final By PAUL BATTERSON ThisWeek Community Newspapers

By Eric George/ThisWeek

Chuck Bolton of Westerville returns a shot July 9 during tournament play.

BACKES

Eighteen years after he earned All-American honors for the University of Alabama men’s tennis team, Rick Witsken still is on top of his game. Witsken and Matt Schiller defeated 2011 Ohio State graduate Matt Allare and Buckeyes senior Steve Williams 6-4, 2-6, 6-3 in the men’s open final of the Bernard Master Tennis Classic on July 10. The two-day doubles tournament was held at the Wickertree Tennis Club in north Columbus. “I didn’t play for seven years. (Then two years ago) I played well in an individual tennis tournament,” said Witsken, who was one of four players who represented the United States in the Tony Trabert Cup in New Zealand last February. “All of a sudden it was like, ‘Wow, I think I can still do this.’ That kind of motivated me.” “Any time there’s a competitive tournament like this, you know you’re going to playing against

Counting down to No. 1 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. 6-10. Check back next week for No. 4 and let us know your thoughts at ThisWeekSPORTS.com. NOS. 6-10: 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 touch-

downs 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 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 freethrow 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 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.

an athletic line, which allowed us to do a lot of counter plays. (The linemen) made their blocks, and it turned into a footrace (to the end zone).” Solon cut the deficit to 15-9 on a 36-yard field goal by Tim Echan with 4:18 left in the third quarter but wouldn’t cross into Bears territory again until its final possession, which started from its own 30 with 1:40 remaining in the game. The Comets needed just five plays to reach the UA 22. Then, after an incomplete pass on first down, Solon quarterback Jay Price tried to hit running back Scott Greenberg, who had lined up as a receiver, down the middle of the field in the end zone. However, Backes stepped in front of Greenberg and intercepted the pass at the goal line, returning the ball to the UA 11 with 46 seconds left. “They were in a four-receiver set and were trying to stretch the field and get one of the seams,” Mayne said. “The quarterback

put a little bit of a loft on the ball and right away I thought, ‘Man, I think Jeff will pick this off.’ Of course, he did, and he had the presence of mind to not try to be a hero and try to return it (for a touchdown).” “Someone turned to me in the huddle and said, ‘Make a play, Jeff,’” Backes said, “and a couple plays later, I made a read on the ball and the rest is history.” UA’s offense came onto the field and, after two kneel-downs by Ramey, the game was over and the celebration began. “After Jeff scored (in the third quarter), from that point on, both sides couldn’t move the ball,” said Ramey, also a 2001 UA graduate. “Then, all of a sudden, (the Comets) go to the no-huddle offense and start moving the ball. You start to get nervous, but then out of nowhere (Backes) makes the interception. It was pandemonium on the sidelines.” During the postgame celebration, a UA fan held a sign that read, “Backes is God.”

“He’s been telling us all year that the offensive line is his savior,” Lisi said after the game. “Tonight ... he was our savior.” Backes finished the 2000 season with a then-state record 3,353 yards rushing and 44 touchdowns. According to the OHSAA, he now ranks third in state history in rushing yards in a season, behind Bedford Chanel’s Tony Franklin (3,439) and Williamsburg’s Jason Bainum (3,386), both of whom surpassed his total in 2001. “He just continued to produce over and over again,” Ramey said of Backes. “It’s pretty amazing what he did (in the championship game).” Backes now is 28 years old and a third-year medical resident in orthopedic surgery at Mount Carmel West. He and his wife, Marissa, have two daughters — Leighton, 23 months, and Brooklyn, 7 months.

Continued from page B1 performance.” Backes, who was 5-foot-9 and 180 pounds in his senior season at UA, opened the scoring in the championship game with a 15yard touchdown run with 8 minutes, 23 seconds left in the first quarter. The two-point conversion gave UA an 8-0 lead. On the touchdown run, Backes took the handoff from quarterback Brian Ramey on a draw play and broke a tackle by Solon safety Steve Watson at the 5-yard line. Solon, which finished 14-1, reached the end zone in the second quarter but failed to convert the two-point conversion and trailed 8-6 at halftime. The Comets got the ball to start the second half but went three-andout, and the ensuing punt gave UA the ball on its own 38. On the Bears’ first offensive play of the second half, Backes took the handoff from Ramey and ran to the right behind left tackle Simon Fraser and left guard Matt Lisi, both of whom pulled on the play. Backes got to the outside and outraced Solon linebacker Marc Leighton and Comets cornerbacks J.T. Staiger and Justin Bitner down the right side to the end zone for a 62-yard touchdown. The extra point by John Tarpy gave UA a 15-6 lead with 10:53 left in the third quarter. “It was a beautiful lead block by Simon Fraser, and Jeff popped it and went down the sideline,” Mayne said. “They weren’t going to catch him.” “Two linemen were pulling on the play,” Backes said. “We had

lare, who won two state doubles and two state singles titles for Kings Mills Kings High School from 2004-07. “They both have very good serves and return of serves. They knew what they were doing.” “They got the ball low at your toes consistently and put the pressure on,” Williams said. “The only thing you can do is serve better and not miss so many first serves. I missed too many first serves and that ended up being a big factor.” Because of low turnout, Wickertree canceled the women’s open in addition to the men’s 45 and men’s 55 divisions. That worked to the benefit of Witsken and Schiller. “We were glad that there weren’t that many teams because we are not young bucks anymore,” Witsken said. “It was 90 degrees and an on-court temperature of 120 degrees. That plays with your mind a little bit as well as your on-court abilities.” pbatterson@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

cessful careers in baseball, including Mike Durant, who played in the program in the early 1980s. Durant, a catcher, played at Watterson and Ohio State before playing with the Minnesota Twins in 1996. Parcher recalled that Jeff Smith, who retired as baseball coach at Centennial in 2006, won the Comets’ first sportsmanship award in 1962. Parcher continues to recognize the team’s top sportsman each year. “I’ve coached hundreds of kids,” Parcher said. “The team is a team of talented kids and almost all of them go on to significant careers in high school and college, a few in the pros. As a result of that there have been a lot of memories and a lot of those guys are still around and I get to see them from time to time. That’s great. I really enjoy that.” It appears Parcher has no intentions of stepping away from the game. “I’m still enjoying myself. There are some various things that will determine whether I decide to come back. One is whether I feel like the group coming up still wants me to be involved. The other would be my health. I’m in reasonably good health. I have a lot of pain in my joints, so I’m doing a lot of sitting down now,” he said. “Every year is gravy from now on. Anything I get after this point is certainly a blessing. I’ve had a great ride. I really have enjoyed it. All of it has been joyful, even the parts that were difficult.”

Parcher was recognized for his contributions to the sport during the North Columbus Sports Firecracker Tournament on July 4 at Ridgeview. Parcher received a plaque for his years of service and a field at Ridgeview was named in his honor. The Comets then honored their coach by winning the U-14 division title. “I’ve told the guys they probably won’t realize how fortunate they are until they’re older and maybe some of them play in college,” Comets assistant coach Rick Sibert said. “They’re learning things now that guys typically don’t learn until they get to play college ball. From a baseball perspective, they’re so fortunate to learn these things and how to play the game the right way.” Parcher has fond memories of teams and players throughout the years. The Comets finished 38-6 in 1968, 31-0 in 1972 and 41-3 in 1981. The team has played on the state, regional and national level, competing in national tournaments in Atlanta, Knoxville and Memphis, Tenn., and Manhattan, Kan. The team won three sportsmanship awards in four years at the Knoxville event. “A lot of that has been a lot of fun, but you can’t do that every year,” Parcher said of competing on the national level. “You have to have both the talent and the interest.” Parcher has coached several fdirenna@thisweeknews.com players who have enjoyed suc- www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

That’s the main reason I come.” Schiller, who lives in Carmel, Ind., and Witsken, who lives in Zionsville, Ind., also captured the men’s 35 title with a forfeit victory over Toledo’s James Kaser and Lima’s Jerome Moenter in the final.

MOSSL champions

The St. Michael eighth-grade varsity softball team went 12-0 this spring, winning the diocese league and tournament championships. Team members included (first row, from left) Katie Manahan, Ansley Rothwell, Marissa Wierzbicki; (second row, from left) Katie Hamilton, Kaelee Vozar, Jessica Hamilton; (third row, from left) Ashley Rogers, Kaite Howard, Emily Piatt, Gabriella Marino and Jenny Hamilton.

The TVSA Santos U11 girls Blue team won the Silver Division in the recent MOSSL Tournament. Team members are (first row, from left) Olivia Rotolo, Maya Portier, Betsy Gaby, Ava D’Herete, Rawlins Moore, Brigid O’Brien; (second row, from left) Zanovia Criss, Kayla Williams, Carolina Carlton, Maeghan Thomas, Kaelyn Glenn and Rian Reid. Not pictured: coach Alyx Portier.

BASEBALL Continued from page B1 with the winning run. Teller’s two-run double helped Steve’s Sports take a 3-0 lead in the fourth. Grove City graduate T.J. DeVore’s pinch-hit triple in the sixth scored Johnson and closed the Cobras to 3-2. Russ Hogue earned the win in relief. He then pitched a complete game against the Lookouts. “We were flat all day, even the first game, and then we put it together at the end,” Cobras coach Harry Huskey said. “We got our emotional high and then we sit around for 45 minutes and we came out and didn’t play real well again. The other team took advantage of our three errors and we only had four hits, so we didn’t deserve to win that game.” The Cobras are 35-6 heading into the Pastime Best of the Midwest Tournament at Wright State and the University of Dayton on Thursday, July 14. •The Ohio Elite 17-and-under

team finished 2-1-1 in the 18-andunder division. Ohio Elite opened the tournament with a 5-1 win over the Ohio Orioles Black before losing to North Canton 3-2. “It’s unfortunate that we didn’t get it done against North Canton, but that’s the nature of tournament play,” coach Chris Huesman said. “You have to win them to move on. We didn’t get that done.” Ohio Elite rebounded to beat the JBR Rays of Green Bay (Wis.) 8-0. Hilliard Davidson’s Mike Scaglione allowed two hits, struck out five and walked one in a complete-game effort. Ohio Elite and the Columbus Cobras 17-and-under team were tied at 10 on July 9 at Granville when the game was suspended because of darkness. Ohio Elite opted not to return to Granville

on July 10 to complete the game in the silver championship bracket. Huesman not only was able to give his team valuable experience during the tournament, he also was able to showcase his complex at Jerome, where he is coach. “We have teams from all over the state, contiguous states and Canada coming over, and it’s always nice for them to see our facilities and what we have to offer,” Huesman said. Other champions were the Stark County Terriers in the 18-andunder division, the North Georgia Barons in the 16-and-under division and the North Coast Vipers in the 15-and-under division. fdirenna@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Weenies serves a variety of ‘super tasty’ hot dogs Weenies has tons of potential. It has the gourmet hot dog market on campus cornered and it serves super tasty madein-Ohio meats grilled to order. Plus, it has a name that’s irresistible to dirty-minded college kids. Indeed, the Weenies owners reported more than a dozen of their signs were stolen — likely by dorm dwellers looking for free decorations — before the restaurant even opened its doors. So if the eatery can work out a few assembly-line kinks and simplify the menu a bit, I’m predicting a success. Weenies is right to be proud of its Ohio meats. They’re a noticeable step up, tastewise, from standard brand-name wieners. And they’re boiled, then grilled, lending a smoky, charbroiled flavor. You pick your choice of dog: all-beef Classic ($3), pork and beef Hottie ($3.65), all-beef Classic Brat ($3.65), all-beef Cheese Brat ($3.85), Chicken Dog ($3.25), Veggie Dog ($3.25) or the Big Weenie one-pounder ($10).

Weenie’s Address: 1644 N. High St., campus Phone: (614) 754-1427 Web: myweenies.com by SHELLEY MANN Hours: 10:30 a.m.-12 a.m. Monday-Wednesday, 10:30 a.m.-3 a.m. Thursday-Saturday, The Hottie is well worth the upgrade. It’s 11 a.m.-8 p.m. Sunday

not only heftier but also has a more complex, spicy flavor profile than a classic dog. You then choose from more than 40 toppings, which is where things get complicated. Forty options sounds like a good thing, but it’s actually kind of paralyzing when you’re standing there, trying to decide which toppings would work best together. It’d be great to see a few Weenies signature dogs on the menu for folks who like having their decisions made for them. There are some nice, unexpected topping options, like a spicy, colorful red-pepper relish, avocados and pineapple salsa. But it starts to get ridiculous — five different mustards, four salsas and dried cranberries? Another concern that will surely

be remedied soon: On our first visit, the menu didn’t indicate that some toppings are free while others cost 35 cents or 75 cents extra. On the side, sweet potato fries ($3) are crunchy and good, but ask for some spicy mayo for dipping rather than the provided ketchup. The Grilled Peanut Butter & Jelly ($2.75), basically a hybrid PB & J and grilled cheese — sans cheese — would taste fantastic at about 2:30 a.m. … and luckily, Weenies is open till 3 a.m. Thursday through Saturday. Shelley Mann is the editor of Crave, Columbus’new dining magazine. Keep up with her at ColumbusCrave.com.

Popular Lindey’s bartender opens own place in the Brewery District Tony Murray was a bartender at a popular restaurant, had scores of adoring customers and a bevy of friendly co-workers, whom he called family. But with the dream of one day opening his own place, the longtime bartender at Lindey’s left his comfortable surroundings for something less certain but with amazing potential — a restaurant of his own. On Monday, he opened T. Murray’s Bar and Kitchen, an ode to the

bygone days of the Rat Pack, classic cocktails and personalized service. He said he can’t emphasize his attachment to Lindey’s enough. He started bartending at the German Village institution in 1989 and said leaving was difficult. “You’ve been in this comfort zone for so long,” he said. “I was just waiting for the right opportunity and it came along.” Yet, he has lofty ambitions for T. Murray’s. The restaurant takes over the for-

mer Barrister Hall location at 560 S. High St. in the Brewery District, which has a reemerging entertainment and restaurant scene. Murray and partners Steve Bagley and Maryanne Testa have spent the past year completely refurbishing the interior of the two-story building, which flaunts a custom-built bar on each floor, wooden floors complemented by darker wood accents and exposed brick for a traditional American look. Murray also is behind the bar, happy to pour traditional drinks such as the OldFashioned, Rusty Nail, Rob Roy and Sidecar. He also plans to dust off the cocktail recipes that date back to the speakeasies of Prohibition-era Chicago. Murray said he wanted a strong emphasis on food and service, a casual ambience with upscale menu. For starters, patrons get a choice of three breads — sourdough, multi-grain and crusty white — all baked locally at Eleni-Christina Bakery. Testa developed the dishes, which she calls upscale comfort food, and chef Christine Remley is responsible for their execution. The menu has a solid American-tavBy Eric George/ThisWeek ern foundation with many modern touchTony Murray and two investors have opened T. Murray’s Bar and Kitchen at es, Testa said.
