SWCS planning merit-based pay By SARAH SOLE ThisWeek Community Newspapers Planning has started for merit-based pay for South-Western City School administrators. Performance-based merit pay raises were part of the contract approved June 10 for administrators. Beginning with the 2012-13 school year, new adminis-

trative employees, and any current administrators who opt to do so, will take part in a merit-based compensation structure. Superintendent Bill Wise said the district started to study the idea of performance compensation when there appeared to be a trend at the federal and state level. “We’ve been in the process of look-

ing at performance compensation for actually about two years,” he said. Compensation would be awarded using a goals-based system with measurable objectives, Wise said. Student performance would be a significant component. The district has about 20,000 students. Administrative employees, the SouthWestern Administrative Association

(SWAA) leadership, the district treasurer, the deputy superintendent, the head of personnel, and probably a board member will be involved primarily in development. The district won’t hire any outside consultant, so no outright additional expenditure will occur, Wise said. Wise said he hasn’t heard any concerns about the plan at this point. Ad-

ministrative employees “have been very cooperative and very understanding” as the district works through the process, he said. The district has about 90 SWAA members. Given natural turnover, Wise estimated the vast majority of administrative emSee SWCS, page A2

Grove City is preparing for the arrival of a 24-7 emergency room facility to be run by Mount Carmel Health System. Mount Carmel is in contract with Mid-America Racing Association Inc. to purchase 112 acres to develop its healthcare services at the site of the former Grovebrook Golf Club off state Route 665. City development director Chuck Boso said city council would have to approve the development plan and the rezoning. The site currently is zoned recreational. Given the property’s size, it would probably be zoned as a planned unit development. Mount Carmel already operates an outpatient center in Grove City at 3000 Meadow Pond Court, housing a primary care physician practice and offering

tation services and clinical laboratory services. The new facility also could improve emergency medical service, which is provided to Grove City by Jackson Township. The urgent care facility at 3000 Meadow Pond Court and OhioHealth’s facility at 2030 Stringtown Road each have ambulance service, said Jacob Merion, EMS coordinator for Jackson Township Fire Department. “Even though many of our runs will still require transport to other facilities, the ones that can go to Mount Caramel’s new ER will ease the time it takes our medics to get back in service and back in our community to take another emergency run,” Merion said. The runs they transport to the new Grove City emergency room will save about 30 to 45 minutes See MOUNT CARMEL, page A5

Mud volleyball will raise funds to support Meals On Wheels By SARAH SOLE ThisWeek Community Newspapers On Aug. 6, volleyball players will get muddy in the name of charity. The 22nd annual Grove City Mud Volleyball Tournament, which raises funds for the Meals On Wheels program, will be held from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Aug. 6 at Beulah Park, 3811 Southwest Blvd. The cost is $150 per six-member team. Each team must have a minimum of two women, and players must be at least 18 years old. The tournament is a single elimination, but each team is guaranteed at least three matches, said city recreation superintendent Ed Merritt. Teams can register at the parks and recreation office at 4035 Broadway, or by mailing or faxing a registration form available

The city funds the event, and works with Beulah Park and the Epilepsy Foundation of Central Ohio. “It’s a muddy, good time,” Merritt said. In a volleyball court that’s nothing but mud and water, players often duct tape their shoes on their feet so they don’t fall off. “Most people will be covered from head to toe in mud by the end of the day,” Merritt said. Grove City resident Todd Sigman has participated in the tournament off and on for about 15 years, first playing when he was about 18 years old. Now he plays with his siblings and their families. Given that the water is as deep as 10 inches, it’s very hard to move around, he said, and it’s also challenging to keep mud out of your eyes. See VOLLEYBALL, page A5

SWCS planning merit-based pay Continued from page A1 ployees would participate in performance compensation in five to seven years, if not sooner. Ultimately, he hopes to create a system that people would want to opt into. He also hopes to apply the system to other types of staff, if it works well enough. “Our hope is that this will make us more results-oriented,” he said. District treasurer Hugh Garside said the group has looked at existing models in other states. Some models were confusing, and some districts deviated from the models they created or got rid of them altogether, he said. “We didn’t want to establish something that we weren’t going to be able to hold onto for the long haul,” Garside said. The district also is looking at what other districts are doing in the Race to the Top Program, which has a performance-based process. SWCS is not a part of Race to the Top. The Ohio Department of Education’s website describes Race to the Top as “a competitive grant program designed to encourage and reward states that are creating the conditions for education innovation and reform.” The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) allocated $4.35-billion for the pro-

gram. The state is studying a model for merit-based pay, Garside said. Senate Bill 5, which included provisions for mandatory merit-based pay, is headed for a statewide referendum. Garside said the district is delaying decisions until the state has a model. He said he didn’t know when that will happen. The district’s development group has looked at the performance index for the district and its individual schools. The measures could take into account different types of learning populations within each individual building, such as students who speak English as a second language and those taking special education. Administrators tied to other types of service, such as transportation or food service, would have other types of indicators. Some teachers might not get raises in the performance-based system, Garside said. He said it is too soon to predict if the change would save district money. Bob Rains, district personnel director and SWAA president until Aug. 1, said he doesn’t yet have an opinion on the performance-based system. The association didn’t fight the system, and they want what’s best for students, he said. “I have not heard anybody voice any complaints,” he said.

Grove City hosts sister-city visitors from Germany By SARAH SOLE ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Two communities separated by an ocean and perhaps a sizeable sea of political history got a chance to share cultures this month in Grove City. As part of a 20-year relationship, St. John’s Evangelical Lutheran Church at 3220 Columbus St. hosted members of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Lübtheen, Germany, from July 10-22. The church members, ages 9 to 62, visited at their own expense, said St. John’s pastor Don Allman. The visitors stayed with church families and were taken to Niagara Falls, Washington, D.C., the Ohio Statehouse, and

the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium. “The beauty and the grandeur of the Niagara Falls really impressed them,” Allman said. Members of both churches participated at a worship service at St. John’s and a dinner afterward on July 17. Twenty years ago, both churches first visited each other, and visits with smaller groups have taken place more recently. Allman visited Lübtheen in 2006. It is a small community of about 5,000 people, a part of eastern Germany that was previously under Communist rule, Allman said. “They have a strong sense of faith,” he said. Allman said said some of

The city hosted a breakfast in honor of the guests to recognize the “sister” city relationship on July 15 at City Hall. Stage and other staff members attended. “It was refreshing to see them enjoying freedom,” Stage said. The mayor and the residents of Lübtheen will become honorary citizens of Grove City, Stage said.

Commentary & opinion

As it were

McDowell led small group of volunteers at Bull Run On July 21, 1861, the Civil War began to be a very long war, indeed. And one of the major figures who helped define that day was a native of Columbus. As the commander of the Union Army of Northeastern Virginia, Gen. Irvin McDowell had spent the previous several months ED desperately tryLENTZ ing to make an army out of a horde of enthusiastic volunteers. Under tremendous pressure to defeat a rebellious South, McDowell had moved out of Washington, D. C., with his quickly trained and even more quickly equipped army to “crush the Rebels.” He almost did just that. This was not a job that Irvin McDowell really wanted. And it certainly was not the one he trained

Mount Carmel to build emergency care center

GBQ Continued from page A1 of $45,000, city finance director Mike Turner said. GBQ’s report said the company 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. GBQ 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 cross-training associates. In December, the IRS 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.

area where needs are outgrowing available services, Jones said. “The Grove City area is one of the fastest-growing suburbs in central Ohio,” he said. The location has good visibility and accessibility, and it is conducive to a healing environment, Jones said. The land also allows the facility to grow with the community. City council president Ted Berry said he’s “cautiously optimistic” about Mount Carmel’s development plan, and said he hopes that it’s a “win-win for the community.” The development plan and rezoning will probably come before council around mid-No-

vember. “I’m just happy that Mount Carmel wants to make an investment in Grove City,” Berry said. City administrator Phil Honsey, development director Chuck Boso and council members Greg Grinch, Melissa Albright and Maria Klemack-McGraw visited the Diley Ridge Medical Center in Canal Winchester July 19, which is run in partnership with Fairfield Medical Center and opened in March 2010. The future Grove City facility will be anchored by a freestanding emergency care center similar to Diley Ridge. Klemack-McGraw said Diley Ridge is a beautiful facility that

offers outpatient diagnostics and health care for older patients, features that the Grove City facility will have as well. The new emergency facility in Grove City

Last year, the event raised about $4,000 to provide meals to local shut-ins. This year, the Grove City Area Seniors group chose Grove City resident Dave Tubbs as event honoree. Tubbs, 82, has been volunteering at the E.L. Evans Senior Center at 4330 Dudley Ave. for about 10 years. “If it weren’t for the senior

center, many of us wouldn’t get out of the house,” Tubbs said. Bev Longmire, city senior coordinator, said as far as she knows the Evans Senior Center in the city is the only location at which Meals on Wheels is served, and several fundraisers for the service are held annually.

Four EMS medic vehicles are available to take emergency runs. “With our runs constantly increasing in numbers, we will welcome Mount Carmel’s ER with open arms,” he said. While he doesn’t yet know how large the facility will be, Jones said the facility will feature full service, 24-7 emergency room care 365 days per year. The facility will have full diagnostic imaging capability, such as MRI and CT scans, X-rays, ultrasounds, mammography and bone

density scanning. These imaging services will support the emergency department as well as outpatient care. Outpatient laboratory services are planned, as well as new medical office space for physicians. Private-practice physicians or those employed by Mount Carmel could use the offices. Hugh Jones, senior vice president of strategy and system development at Mount Carmel, said the goal is for the facility to be operational by winter 2012-13. Jones said he expects new jobs will be created, but couldn’t specify a number. The new facility will be staffed by a both existing employees and new hires. Grove City stands out as an

McDowell led small group of volunteers at Bull Run Continued from page A4 center of town and nestled against the creek that passed by and gave Spring Street its name. Until 1834, one crossed the creek at High Street on a wooden bridge. Columbus was not very large when Irvin McDowell was a boy. Founded in 1812 to be the new state capital, the village only had a few hundred residents at the end of the War of 1812. Prominent among them were Abram Irvin McDowell and his wife, Eliza. Abram McDowell held a number of public offices and made a success of himself in a variety of enterprises. But the McDowells had come from the more sophisticated society of Kentucky and Virginia, and hoped that their children would also be able to rise above the frontier world of central Ohio. With that intent, they sent young Irvin off to school in Troyes, France, for several years. With Abram McDowell’s political influence, an appointment to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point was obtained for Irvin to further his education. It should be noted that the American

army was quite small in these years and West Point was essentially a training ground for civil engineers. In a growing America, one could make a nice living as a civil engineer after a period of military service. On the other hand, the military itself still carried a certain social cachet, as well. Irvin McDowell chose to stay in the army. Graduating in 1838, he was posted as a second lieutenant in the artillery. After serving four years as a tactics instructor at West Point, he served on the staff of Gen. John Wool during the Mexican War and was cited for bravery at the Battle of Buena Vista. After the Mexican War, McDowell served for a number of years as a brevet major in the adjutant general’s office. He acquired a reputation as a solid, dependable officer and an excellent military administrator. In 1861, his talents would be put to the test. The election of Abraham Lincoln to the presidency in 1860 on a Republican pledge to oppose the extension of slavery to the territories had led to the attempted secession of a number of southern states over the next several months. Political and persuasive attempts to bring

the rebellious South back into the Union ended with the fall of Fort Sumter at Charleston, S.C. Not recognizing the South as independent, Lincoln called for 75,000 volunteers for three months to defeat “combinations too powerful to suppress” by normal means. In other words, the president hoped a citizen army could swiftly repress those rebellious southerners. The commander of America’s army was Gen. Winfield Scott, who had fought bravely in the War of 1812 and the Mexican War and had served in the army for more than 50 years. He had literally written the book that was used to train America’s soldiers. But he was also old and tired and sick and knew that he needed a younger combat commander. He hoped to get his protégé, Robert E. Lee, to take the job. But Lee returned to his native Virginia and fought for the South. At that point, Scott turned to Irvin McDowell, who had recently been promoted to brigadier general with the help of his political mentor, former Ohio governor and Treasury Secretary Salmon Chase. The response of the North to the war had been enthusiastic. More than 15,000 men arrived in Columbus to enlist in the

first few days of the war. Over the next several months, the men were armed, uniformed, trained and marched away to war. By mid-July 1861, Irvin McDowell’s Army of Northeastern Virginia, including two regiments of Ohio infantry, was on the move. McDowell did not think his army was ready and said so. But three-month enlistments were about to expire and he was under pressure from the president, the Congress and the country to defeat the rebels and be done with it. So McDowell marched his army south toward Richmond,Va. Awaiting his arrival was a Confederate Army roughly equal in size. On July 21, 1861, the two met near Manassas, Va., at a little stream called Bull Run. On a brutally hot day and observed by many tourists who had driven from Washington to watch the battle, the two armies fought well — considering neither army had been in a prior battle. Ultimately, the Union Army retreated in disarray. Most people in the North were shocked. A Columbus paper recorded the scene: “An immense, surging crowd assembled in front of our office. All expected the enemy would soon be ours and the oppression and gloom of war gave way

to sunshine and joy. But at noon came dispatches announcing disaster, and a most despondent gloom settled over their faces and a pall seemed to settle on their spirits. But in the evening, a feeling of determination and revengeful resistance was aroused such as words cannot describe. ‘I feel like going myself!’was the exclamation of everyone who spoke.” Sensing that more troops might be needed, President Lincoln had called for 300,000 more men a few weeks before the battle. By early August, they were assembling at a number of encampments in and around Columbus. This war, it was now well understood, was going to last for quite some time. McDowell lost his command of the large army but acted as a division and corps commander through the rest of the conflict. In 1864, McDowell was given command of the Department of the West and served in the West for the rest of his career. He retired as major general in 1882 and died three years later. He is generally credited with the creation of the Presidio military base in San Francisco.

Football

Teams preparing for start of practice By JARROD ULREY ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The wait is nearly over for high school football players and coaches. It started with the sometimes monotonous days of weight-room work, which began for many the moment last season ended. The past few weeks have included activities such as team camps and 7on-7 passing tournaments, with a few glimpses of the playbook thrown in. Beginning Monday, Aug. 1, it final-

ly will start to feel like football again. For Grove City coach Matt Jordan, that first day of official coaching allowed by the OHSAA provides an enjoyable opportunity to see his players bond. It also doesn’t hurt that it’s a chance for relationships between some players and coaches to get a fresh start. “You no longer get any excuses from anybody,” Jordan said, laughing. “Seriously, it’s fun to finally get to put the pads on. You’ve been in the weight room since December, so it’s fun watch-

ing everyone run around in helmets. You know it’s football season, and there’s this wonderful excitement in the air. There’s something about that adrenaline that comes.” According to the OHSAA, the dates teams are allowed to scrimmage this year are Aug. 9-20. Although games can be played as early as Aug. 22, most teams start their season Aug. 26 or 27. Many teams in central Ohio won’t have their first scrimmage until Aug. 12, which means they have 11 days to put plays in motion before their first

contact against another team. Putting in drills over the first couple days of practice can be an important exercise in setting the pace for the coming months as well as in preparing for scrimmages. “You try to establish everyday types of drills and try to mix them up,” Jordan said. “We do certain things day one, certain things day two and get a rotation going. You’re always evaluating talent and you definitely want to laterally be going forward to see who looks good.

“In football, you already have a pretty good idea who your guys are Aug. 1, so you’re also looking at team cohesiveness. Do you have some leaders who are ready to step up? You start initially with your base offense and base defense in the early days and then do repeat and review to make sure you haven’t moved too fast. When you get to pads, it all changes.” Teams from the City League sometimes have obstacles, particularly early See FOOTBALL, page B2

Commentary

Respect essential to prep athletes Bad news often takes precedence over good news when it comes to stories about athletes. Most athletes perform well at their jobs and conduct their lives in a respectful way, but poor decisions often lead to headlines. This week, the high school stuLARRY dent-athletes LARSON writing in my summer series discuss how they view two elements of the positive side of sports — sportsmanship and respect. Jake Blankenship, Gahanna, pole vault: “I always try to be as positive as possible and I always remember that I do this sport because I love it and not as if it is my job.” Mary Wells, Westerville Central, bowling: “I view respect and sportsmanship as a bigger part of the game than talent. You don’t have to be a friend with everyone, but it is important to get along with everyone.” Faith Washington, Reynoldsburg, track: “Respect and good sportsmanship are necessities come game time. Whether it was something in your day that upset you or things just aren’t going the way you want them to, no one likes to feel disrespected. Sometimes it’s going to be about someone else’s day, so smile and congratulate them as they would congratulate you.” Napoleon Bell, Hartley, football and wrestling: “Respect in competition is vital. When you are big enough to respect your opponents, you respect yourself and your teammates that much more.” Austin Cuervo, St. Charles, golf: “Respect and sportsmanship are always very valued traits to have as an athlete. In order to respect the game, you must respect your competitors in that game.” Chase Delande, Hilliard Davidson, football and wrestling: “I will make it real simple — respect all, fear none.” Jimmy Gammill, New Albany, football: “In high school games, you have to remember that the guys out there on the field from the other team are just like you. Many of us get to be friends over the years. It is important to represent your school and community well on and off the field.” Michela Paradiso, Upper Arlington, soccer and basketball: “Respect and sportsmanship in competition are very important. I will be the first to say that emotions, sometimes, do get the best of me during games. The important thing is to keep in mind that it is a game and it is nothing to compromise your morals over.” Morgan Ransom, Columbus Academy, golf: “It is never very fun to play with someone

Greg Avery (5) of Newark begins to celebrate in the final seconds of the Wildcats’ 65-52 victory over Lakewood St. Edward in the Division I state championship game on March 15, 2008. Avery dominated the game, scoring 33 points and adding 11 rebounds, three assists and four steals to lead Newark.

Top Individual Performances: No. 3

Avery led Newark to state title By JARROD ULREY

Counting down to No. 1

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Greg Avery of the Newark High School boys basketball team couldn’t have been more excited for the spotlight of the Division I state championship game March 15, 2008, against Lakewood St. Edward. Even now, though, he cringes at how his game started — with a pair of what he considered bad shots, the first of which resulted in a missed layup. But little else went wrong that night for Avery. The 6-foot-3 senior tied his career high of 33 points on 14 of 18 shooting and added 11 rebounds, three assists and four steals to lead the Wildcats to a 65-52 victory and their first state championship since 1943 before a crowd of 12,465 at Ohio State’s Value City Arena. “My first two shots were two of the dumbest shots,” Avery said. “I wanted to get rolling, and after that I was just in the zone.” Avery made seven consecutive shots after missing his first attempt, including back-to-back baskets to open the second quar-

NOS. 4-10: 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.

ter. He hit a jumper nine seconds into the period to make it 21-14 and made his only 3-point attempt with 6 minutes, 57 seconds remaining in the quarter to give the Wildcats a 24-14 lead. After Newark took a 14-point lead midway through the second period, St. Edward rallied to within six before Avery hit a jumper

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 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 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

with 7 seconds left in the first half to make it 33-25. “I really noticed (how well he was playing) the next week watching the game and seeing some of the shots he made,” Newark coach Jeff Quackenbush said. “We ran a play for him at the end of the (first) half and he made this fade-away (jumper)

from about 17 feet. You know he’s scoring and doing well, but I guess he was just in that zone and we felt really good about the shots he was taking. “He had a huge steal at the end of the third quarter and just played well the entire game. His whole game, just everything he did, he really competed well that night.”

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 Davidson 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.

The other starters for the Wildcats — post player Dane Kopp, forward Will McCoy and guards Cody Dennison and Rahlin Watson — each played contributing roles in what became Newark’s fourth state championship. Although McCoy scored just four See AVERY, page B2

Defections leave MSL alignment unclear for 2013 Return of Licking County League also affects OCC By SCOTT HENNEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Mid-State League likely is headed for realignment, but interim commissioner Jim Hayes doesn’t know what the conference will look like after the 2012-13 school year. Hayes, who is the athletics director at Teays Valley and chair of the MSL’s reSee LARSON, page B2 alignment and expansion committee, be-

lieves the league likely will have to add schools. “We have six schools leaving after the 2012-13 school year and that leaves 18 in the league,” said Hayes, who took over on an interim basis after Frank Pergolizzi resigned as MSL commissioner in the spring. “Right now, I wish I knew what we are going to do. There is no clear direction on what we will do.” In the spring, MSL-Ohio Division members Granville, Heath, Lakewood, Licking Valley and Newark Catholic announced they would be leaving to join a re-established Licking County League (LCL). Licking Heights of the MSL-Cardinal also will be leaving for the LCL.

“We could have three six-team divisions (with the 18 remaining schools) or two nine-school divisions, but neither of those has very much support,” Hayes said. “A lot of schools are worried about increased travel and competing against new schools that they don’t have a history with and they don’t know a lot about them. They want competitive balance and they are not sure about new schools.” Schools showing interest in joining the MSL include Chillicothe, Fairfield Christian, Grove City Christian, Logan and Worthington Christian. Another potential problem comes from the OCC looking to replace Watkins Memorial, which will be joining the six

MSL schools in the LCL. OCC commissioner Dave Cecutti said MSL schools looking to fill that void include Bexley, Canal Winchester, Grandview, Hamilton Township, Teays Valley and Whitehall. Chillicothe, Logan and Marion Harding also applied for the OCC as well as Jonathan Alder, which has since joined the Marion County-based Mid-Ohio Athletic Conference (MOAC). Cecutti said he expects the 32-school OCC to find a replacement for Watkins Memorial in the next few weeks, but there also is a possibility that the conference could expand. See MSL, page B2

AVERY Continued from page B1

Sports briefs named after us, ‘Newark State Championship Day.’ There was a lot of support from Newark.” Shortly after the state championship, Avery signed to play collegiately for Western Carolina. He averaged 6.6 points and 3.9 rebounds in 30 games, including four starts, during the 2008-09 season. After the season, he decided to transfer to the University of Findlay, a Division II school, because of the coming birth of his daughter. During the 2009-10 season for the Oilers, Avery averaged 3.7 points and 2.7 rebounds in 27 games, including five starts. Despite having what he deemed a successful transition early on to Findlay’s program, longtime coach Ron Niekamp, who retired earlier this year after 26 seasons, told Avery after the season that he “didn’t really fit the system,” Avery said. In search of a place to play, Avery was considering Valdosta State, a Division II school in Valdosta, Ga., when on July 26, 2010, he and two other men were accused of assaulting a man in Myrtle Beach, S.C. “They tried to hit me with a felony, but I didn’t do anything,” Avery said. “It set me back two more steps.” Avery now is a student at the Newark branch of Ohio State and working for Dennison’s father, Joe, but is hoping to play competitive basketball again soon. He is considering playing on the Division III or NAIA level, or could join a semipro team. Regardless of some of the ups and downs that have occurred for Avery the past three-plus years, he knows the memory of what he helped accomplish with his high school team lives on. “It’s still unbelievable,” Avery said. “I still talk to guys who played on that team regularly, and for that game I think we all just did everything to get us that ring. We didn’t let distractions get in our way. I felt like when I was starting to get hot that we were going to win the game.”

points, he was one of the primary reasons St. Edward’s Tom Pritchard — an Indiana University recruit — was held to nine points on 3-for7 shooting. The Wildcats never led by fewer than five points in the second half and stretched the lead to as many as 16 in the final period. Watson, who plays for Capital University, scored 10 points. Dennison scored eight and Kopp added seven as the Wildcats finished with a 24-4 record. Avery said the standout performance of the team’s defense made it difficult for St. Edward — and Pritchard in particular — to take good shots. Dennison, who played two seasons for Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and will play for Tiffin University this season, remembers talking with Avery when both were in elementary school about one day making it to the state tournament. “He pretty much did everything for us that night,” Dennison said. “We’d had the mindset to be in that situation since we were in fifth grade, and in my junior year and Greg’s senior year, we finally reached that goal. That will to win got us over the hump. “I personally tried to give him the ball all the time, and everybody fed off of him. We were all clicking. Everything he was shooting was going in.” Avery remembers fondly the scene when he and his teammates returned to Newark that night and the celebrations that followed over the coming days. It was a fitting end to a prep career in which Avery scored 1,131 points. He made third-team all-state and first-team all-district his senior season as he averaged 18.9 points, 8.6 rebounds and 4.2 assists. Avery became the sixth player in program history to score more than 1,000 career points. “I remember driving home and the fans were waiting for us when we got back to our gym,” julrey@thisweeknews.com Avery said. “We had a ceremony and had a day www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

FOOTBALL Continued from page B1 on, because many of the players who come out for football as freshmen are competing in the sport on a team for the first time. For those taking over a program for the first time such as Brookhaven’s Trevor White, that factor as well as figuring out how to install a new system can make for some complicated moments of preparation even before the first day of official coaching. “Especially with a new program, a big thing early on is setting the tone,” White said. “You want to be getting everybody on the same page, and what we’ve been debating is how much of the offense and defense do we put in. Do we just throw it at them or do we take it step by step? “We’ll have some kids that played (youth) football but some who have never played the sport before. You’ve always got to walk a line of bringing kids along but not holding the veterans back, and especially with a new program, it’s important that you’re really getting to know the team. I’m really excited to learn who my team is.” One of the key aspects of the first days of official coaching, according to Olentangy Liberty coach Steve Hale, is getting players’ technical reactions back on track.

MSL Continued from page B1 “The one-for-one swap (of a new school to replace Watkins Memorial) is there, but we’re also looking into adding another (eight-team) division,” Cecutti said. “If it’s in our best interest to add a fifth division then it’s something we will do. “I really don’t know for sure what direction we will be going, but we are looking into all available options.” Hayes expects the MSL to remain in three divisions, even if only five teams join the conference. That will mean two eightteam divisions and one with seven teams. “We are staying with the possibility of adding five new schools and having 23 teams in the league,” Hayes said. “It seems to be the idea with the most support. I think, for the big picture, that’s the best scenario.” Bloom-Carroll athletics director Chad Little said it might be time for change if only for the fast growth of suburban schools. “Licking Heights was outgrowing everyone (in the MSLCardinal) and Bloom-Carroll is the smallest school in the MSLBuckeye,” Little said. “When you are going up against (large-enrollment) schools like Canal (Winchester) and Teays Valley,

At a glance Below is a look at the Central Crossing, Grove City, Grove City Christian and Ready football teams entering Monday, Aug. 1’s first day of official coaching: CENTRAL CROSSING •Coach: Chris Harr, second season •2010 record: 2-8, 1-6 (seventh) in OCC-Central •Last playoff appearance: None •Opener: Aug. 26 vs. Mifflin •Top expected returnees: Tory Clark (QB), Casey Follrod (OL), Nathaniel Huffman (LB), Justin Jones (WR) and Nate Rush (WR/DB) •Preseason outlook: Last season for the Comets was about building tradition and getting the players to focus more on the weight room for a new coaching staff led by Harr.

GROVE CITY •Coach: Matt Jordan, third season •2010 record: 4-6 overall, 4-3 (tied for third) in OCC-Ohio •Last playoff appearance: 2008, lost in Division I first round •Opener: Aug. 26 at Hilliard Davidson •Top expected returnees: Ryan Barberi (RB), Dalton Chapman (DL), Jordan Fisher (RB), Connor Lucas (DB) and Taylor Von Lohr (LB) •Preseason outlook: There were plenty of positive moments in the Dawgs’ return season, particularly after they got through a non-league schedule that included three consecutive losses to eventual playoff teams. Jordan hopes better offseason conditioning

“You’re working a lot on technique, stance and starts, quickness and a lot of ball skills,” Hale said. “What responsibilities do I have? There are a lot of drills where we try to put kids in situations where they can learn. I think it’s just a matter of being organized and knowing what schemes we have.

GROVE CITY CHRISTIAN •Coach: Kerry Owens, second season •2010 record: 3-7 •Last playoff appearance: 2009, lost in Division VI state semifinal •Opener: Aug. 27 at Bellaire St. John Central •Top expected returnees: Zach Brewer (WR), Zach Casparro (OL), Tony Roark (RB) and Ben Whitaker (QB) •Preseason outlook: The Eagles struggled a season after winning 12 games and going to a state semifinal, but a strong group of returning skill-position players provides optimism that the team should be better than a year ago. READY •Coach: Larry Wolf, 14th season •2010 record: 4-6 overall, 0-1 (second) in CCL-Gold •Last playoff appearance: 2009, lost in Division V first round •Opener: Aug. 26 vs. Franklin Heights •Top expected returnees: Kelly Culbertson (DB), Patrik Garren (DL), Brandon Gutheil (TE/DL), Bo Hardy (QB) and John Wright (K) •Preseason outlook: With injuries and inexperience among the contributing factors, the Silver Knights a year ago endured their first losing season since 1998. Ready enters the season intent on improving defensively after giving up an average of 29.2 points a game last year. For preseason information on other central Ohio teams, go to ThisWeekSPORTS.com.

working man’s band. With the group’s new record, Speed of Darkness, founder Dave King and mates have taken that motif to a new level, writing the album during a three-month stay in Detroit and focusing on the nation’s economic struggles through the eyes of those in the Motor City. Plan to get sweaty, pump a fist and raise a wrist with Flogging Molly at Lifestyle Communities Pavilion Friday, July 29. Maryland rock quartet Clutch opens. Tickets are $27.50/$30.

BONUS: As a Critic Crony once said (and we paraphrase), “It’s the biggest gol-durn fair in the world.” The reference was to the Ohio State Fair, which gets under way this week. KE$HA gets the entertainment slate under way today (Thursday, July 28) and the rest of the schedule has, as always, a little something for everyone, highlighted by: Seether, July 31; David Crowder Band, Aug. 1; Loretta Lynn and the Oak Ridge Boys, Aug. 2; Journey/Foreigner/ Night Ranger, Aug. 5; and Melissa Etheridge, Aug. 6. Brad Paisley headlines the final-night show at Crew Stadium Sunday, Aug. 7. And we’re especially excited to see Meat Loaf on the schedule for our birthday — not a reference to our obsession with fair food. Visit www. ohiostate fair. com for all Meat Loaf the details.

And he wants to play the old songs. “Our newest thing, to us, is always the most urgent,” the bassist for the Goo Goo Dolls told The Beat. “We’ve started playing Sweetest Lie (first track on the band’s latest CD, Something for the Rest of Us) during our ‘charge up songs’ to open the set. A lot of times, people don’t know those songs as well, because we also use some early songs in there, too.” Turns out he wants to play all the songs. “When we get to Slide, it’s often the first song people know really well,” he said. “And if you don’t play Black Goo Goo Dolls Balloon or Iris, someone’s going to be upset, and we don’t want that to Goo Goo Dolls, with openers Michelle Branch happen.

Milestone 229: Come for the views, stay for the food The food could have totally been beside the point at Milestone 229. Born lucky in an expensively rehabbed neighborhood loaded with stunning things to gawk at, Milestone could have skated by on its good looks and its eye-candy setting: the people magnet that is the impressive new Scioto Mile development. Speaking of Scioto Mile, on one side of Milestone is a showpiece waterpark where highly stimulated kids run wildly through elaborately alternating spurts of water and adults stare in wonder. At night, the modern, sculptural, halo-like fountains ethereally produce fog, become a thrilling and hypnotic light show and are sometimes the watery screen for filmic projections. On the opposite side of Milestone are the most spectacular vistas of downtown Columbus visible from any eatery. Really, to sit on Milestone’s big, looping one-of-a-kind patio is to realize how sexy our city can be.

MENU by G. A. BENTON Cleverly, this restaurant — which is run by the Columbus Brewing Company folks — is constructed along swooping arcs that echo those halo-form fountains. Elliptical, expansive and roomy, Milestone 229 is a neat-looking, modernist metal-and-glass building. And its patio has clearly upped the ante on scenic outdoor eating in central Ohio. But Milestone is not just another pretty face. Because though its mob-attracting location would’ve ensured a captive audience even if it served awful food, Milestone’s gone the extra … er, mile and hired a real chef (Rigsby’s veteran Christian Hattemer) who’s fashioned an allAmerican, local- and fine-ingredientsourcing menu. While Milestone’s food is hardly daring, it is carefully prepared,

scratch-made stuff that aims for, and consistently hits, the familiar-disheswith-chef’s-flourishes target. The house cocktails ($9) follow a similar trajectory. Made with very good ingredients, none I tried were stinkers, but my favorite has been the perfectly named seasonal cooler called Summer Splash (Watershed gin, muddled cu-

cumber and fresh lime in refreshing harmony). Appetizers are presented with fun and verve. They range from a heavy but pleasing Skillet Mac ‘n Cheese ($7.25, huge, with a lively cheese blend, smoky bacon and toasted panko breadcrumbs served in a black skillet) to the mandatory Calamari (wittily spilling out of a Chinese takeout container) to a mayorich and abundantly red-peppered Pimento Cheese dip ($7.25) to a neat medley called Wine Quartet ($10.50, salty olives, seasoned nuts, a decent beet and orange salad, and the upstaging star of a salmon mousse). There are also handmade, hearty and rustic pizzas on thick, crispy crusts (like a salty and pungent gorgonzola and roasted mushroom, $12.50). Entree salads were solid, too, like the Wild Alaskan Salmon ($13.50), with wasabi peas, a gingery dressing and a thick miso/peanuttype sauce. Entree-wise, I tried a perfectly cooked,

OK steak (Grilled Barrel Cut Sirloin, $22) with a suave hoochy sauce, topnotch green beans plus a nifty multiplepotato hash, and a fresh-tasting and attractively plated Potato Crusted Great Lakes Walleye ($22) with a golden crispy spud shell, asparagus and creamed corn sauce. While both were good, Milestone’s giant sandwiches (all about $10) were equally satisfying, yet a lot cheaper — and they arrive with nice, crisp fries, either vinegar-tinged or of the sweet potato variety. My favorite sandwich was the standout, banh-mi-accented Tempura Battered fish. Also easily gulpable were the Three Little Pigs Porkout and a heavily herbed homemade bratwurst burger. Inevitable ending: Milestone 229 — come for the views, stay for the food.

Independent yogurt shop gives fresh spin to frozen confection Fans of a hot trend, Joey Chong and her family decided to play it cool. Not an easy thing to do in 90degree weather. Devotees of frozen yogurt, they wanted to open a store but were unimpressed with the inflexibility of national chains. So they went out on their own. On Saturday, on yet another sweltering day in central Ohio, they opened Matcha in the restaurant-diverse Bethel Centre. The independent store plays to the desires of the customer, Chong said. “I have been helping my fam-

ily and relatives with their restaurant business for many years and now I get to try a different food,” she said. “It’s dessert. When the idea of opening a frozen-yogurt store came up from the family, I was very excited because I already had frozen yogurt a few times in the East Coast and loved it so much.” Matcha, a type of Japanese green tea, offers 10 flavors a day, from the traditional — vanilla and chocolate — to the more exotic — pomegranate-raspberry, mango and, of course, matcha. The plan is to rotate the flavors

often to see what customers favor, she said. Comment cards will be provided at the store. Matcha is self-serve. Customers are given a 16-ounce cup and can fill it with as many flavors and toppings as they desire. The price is 44 cents an ounce. The real gems, she said, are the toppings, which total more than 40. Again, there are the typical options, such as nuts, granola and M&Ms, plus others that are more likely to be found in a bubble-tea store, including coconut jellies, mochi (ice cream wrapped in a soft, thin Japanese rice cake), sweetened red and green beans and popping boba (tapioca pearls filled with fruit juice). Fruit will always be fresh, never mushy, she promised. “When I travel, I always look for something different or try some local restaurants,” she said. “We will keep searching around for more unique foods and toppings to serve with yogurt.” Matcha is among a new wave of frozen-yogurt purveyors in central Ohio, which includes Orange Leaf, Red Mango, Josie’s and Cuzzins. Dean Small, founder and managing partner Synergy Restaurant Consultants near San Diego,

said the resurgence of frozen yogurt can be attributed to a couple of factors. For starters, it is perceived as a healthier option than ice cream. Also, people tend to migrate toward indulgences in a bad economy. “Comfort food always plays well,” he said. Small likes the build-your-own option being offered by Matcha and other frozen-yogurt places. “You’re putting the onus on them to create their own little masterpiece,” he said. Still, he sees a danger in oversaturation and lack of creativity from some frozen-yogurt vendors. “Some of them just aren’t that innovative,” he said. “I still think that frozen yogurt is very popular,” he added. “I don’t see it going away any time soon.” Matcha seats 20 in 1,500 square feet of space at 1462 Bethel Road. It is open for lunch and dinner hours daily. For more information, call (614) 564-9154. Element Pizza is slated to open Aug. 1.

Brief Benefit auto shows slated Three car shows will be held July 31, Aug. 21 and Sept. 25 as fundraisers to benefit a family that lost two children in a house fire in May. The events will be organized by Tim Templin, a neighbor of Misty Hodge and Jamie Gillespie when their Gantz Road house caught fire. The couple’s children — Abigail Marie Hodge, 4, and Joshua Allen Gillespie, 2 — died and Gillespie was badly injured. The auto shows will be at Discount Drug Mart, 2290 Stringtown Road. Registration, at $5 per vehicle entered, will be from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at each event. Awards will be presented at 4 p.m. The shows will be open to all makes and models of cars and trucks. “We will have door prizes and some trivia for prizes,” Templin said. “Discount Drug Mart is giving away hot dogs and drinks. People can make donations. The trophies for the show in July were donated by Hugh at Classic Resurrections (2160 Southwest Blvd.). A lot of other businesses have donated prizes for the show.” Anyone who would like to make a donation for a door prize may contact Templin at (614) 539-5336 or gccruise_in@yahoo.com.
