Brown Elementary School students raised a school-record $23,005 for Pennies for Patients to benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, according to school officials.

For their efforts, students had the opportunity to pour an array of substances upon the heads of teachers and principal Jon Way, who was made into a “picnic” to the sheer delight of hundreds of screaming students on the school’s playground March 16.

Way’s “picnic” included an array of condiments and side dishes.

Each morning since Feb. 18, students brought coins and bills into the school office, where the money was counted and rolled if needed.

March 16 was the final day of the fundraising effort and the school presented a check for $23,005 to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

Sarah Huffman, a fourth-grade teacher at Brown Elementary School, said the amount was the most the school has ever raised.

She said exactly $23,000 was collected last year.

Hilliard economic-development director David Meeks said only time will tell how a mandatory 60-day waiting period for rezonings from the approval of Issue 9 would affect the city.

“We’ve been given a new set of rules and will do the best we can. Now that it has passed, only time will tell,” Meeks said March 22.

Issue 9 was an amendment to Hilliard’s city charter that voters overwhelming approved March 15.

According to the final unofficial results from the Franklin County Board of Elections, 7,755 voters – 72 percent of those who cast ballots – were in favor of the amendment; 2,955 people cast votes against it.

As a result, the charter will prohibit rezonings by emergency action of City Council and ban tax-increment-financing districts for residential developments or residential components of developments.

Hilliard’s Bo Jackson’s Elite Sports facility is expected to open this fall on Cosgray Road, according to company executives.

“We plan to break ground this spring and open the facility this fall,” Jim Thompson, president of the company, said March 21.

The suburban Chicago-based organization has not closed on the 7 acres on which it plans to build, Thompson said, but the deal is imminent.

Notification distance for rezonings increased

By KEVIN CORVO THISWEEKNEWS.COM

Hilliard has doubled the minimum-distance requirement to notify property owners of pending rezoning applications.

Hilliard City Council members last week offered different views in reaching a 6-1 decision to increase the minimum-distance from 200 to 400 feet.

Effective upon its approval March 14, the resolution requires that all property owners living within 400 feet of a parcel under consideration for rezoning be notified via mail of the public hearing.

It further requires that the 20 nearest property owners are notified – if fewer than 20

reside within 400 feet – and requires a standardized sign about the rezoning application to be erected on the parcel at least 14 days in advance of a hearing.

“I’m ready to pass this. We have gone backand-forth on distance,” said Councilman Al Iosue, who suggested the minimum distance be set at 300 feet. “We can increase it later (if necessary).”

Iosue cast the lone dissenting vote on the resolution.

Councilman Bill Uttley said the sign posted on the property would have “a noticeable impact on community awareness” of rezoning matters.

He and City Council President Nathan Painter also were in favor of 300 feet but other

members sought greater minimum requirements.

Councilmen Les Carrier and Joe Erb were in favor of 500 feet, and Councilman Tom Baker suggested 400 feet.

Vice President Kelly McGivern said she thought 400 feet was a “good compromise.”

McGivern asked for reconsideration of the minimum-notification standard after numerous residents, many from Davidson Run, told City Council members last summer they were not aware of the rezoning application for Vision Development to build 218 apartments in a development to be known as The Pointe north of Davidson Road.

Iosue said he was concerned an increase to 400 feet or greater would result in too much

additional labor and cost for city staff to prepare and mail notices.

“Give the sign (posted on the property) a chance to work,” Iosue said.

“I’d rather err on the side of more notifications. Their voice is important,” McGivern said.

Even at 400 feet, Iosue said, Hilliard’s minimum distance for rezoning notices would the largest among local municipalities.

“And that’s fantastic,” Erb replied.

“If we have to spend the money (to send more notices), so be it. It’s for the residents,” Baker said. kcorvo@thisweeknews.com @ThisWeekCorvo

More expert care than you expected, closer than you ever imagined.

Brown Elementary School students pour ice-cream-sundae toppings over the head of fourth-grade teacher Sarah Huffman on March 16 during an assembly for Pennies for Patients.

PENNIES FOR PATIENTS FROM >> A1

Jane Ehret, a music teacher, learned she would be a “spa” upon which students poured shampoo, hair gel and lotions.

“It’s so cold!” she said.

Rachel Murdock, an art teacher, learned she would receive a day at the “beach.”

Students poured sand, lemonade and animal crackers on her head.

Huffman was transformed into a human ice-cream sundae.

“The kids had a great time ... and learned about charity and how to help others,” Huffman said.

Huffman estimated the school’s students have raised about $148,000 since the annual charity event began 11 years ago, when a student council member suggested raising money for the society because a family member had cancer.

The March 16 celebration was just icing on the cake.

Teachers picked one of six chairs before learning what “object” they were to become.

“Our volunteers bought the stuff and only they knew what it was,” Huffman said about the substances the highest-collecting students poured on the kcorvo@thisweeknews.com heads of classroom teachers. @ThisWeekCorvo

Balancing act

‘Must love dogs’ applies only to exceptional pair With apologies to those who are, I must confess that I am not an avowed dog-lover. Normally, I cower when friendly canines take a flying leap into my lap. I startle when they lick my face. The thought of doggie halitosis makes me cringe.

But this is all subject to one puzzling exception: my longdistance granddogs.

If it were not for Winston the pug and Wendie, a poofy white whatchamacallit, who live in Phoenix, I might never have entered the strange world of doggie adoration. They are the tail-waggers who, in lieu of children, own my older son and his wife. And they are starting to own me.

When they race to the door to greet me, jump on the couch to help me watch The Voice, or look up with laser focus hoping for a dropped carrot nub, I melt.

For me, this is an astonishing development. My mother, an avid gardener, planted the seeds of doggie disdain years ago when the lab next door regularly romped and wrecked her garden. With that, his name – and that of the entire species – became Damn Dog. Damn Dogs, she said, were expensive to maintain, made it impossible to go on vacation, and had accidents in the house. Doggie love never fully bloomed.

Until the granddogs came along, that is. I suspect that the two of them – and their parents – have gone to extreme measures to get me helplessly hooked.

On a recent visit, Wendie raced to the door in a white bandanna peppered with little red hearts. Her mom, who calls me the Granddogma, had tied it on in honor of my Valentine birthday. Winston, 11, skipped the plastic stairs his parents installed for him by the couch and hoisted his arthritic body up with sheer enthusiasm. I think they secretly trained him for this.

I’m not sure how I would otherwise deserve such dog-

gie adoration. The matching personalized Christmas stockings I sent out a few months PAT ago? The SNYDER hope that I am a very sloppy eater? Or are they, like my human grandchildren, simply a cut above all the rest?

More clever? More loving?

And no matter what, wellmeaning?

Maybe, at 1,873 miles away, the heart grows even fonder.

Still, I’m sure that coming from a Damn Dog background, I am perfectly objective. Who wouldn’t notice that they shed real tears when my son leaves the house? Or dance wildly when my daughter-in-law gets home from work?

Who wouldn’t be impressed that the pug, a foodie, is willing to go on a diet just so he can fit in a travel carrier and fly to visit his other grandma in New England?

And Louis C.K. has nothing over Wendie for belly laughs when the casual mention of “walk” sends her flying off the couch, sliding across the coffee table, and landing optimistically across the room by her leash.

I suppose with such a change of heart, there are those who are bound to wonder if I have finally seen the light. Am I about to head for the nearest shelter, adoption papers in hand? Or maybe let one testdrive me to see if I’m worth owning?

No, no, no. I don’t think so.

Not that I have anything against dogs. Or that I would ever call them Damn Dogs.

I just think it would be too hard on these granddogs to share me.

As it were

City grew dramatically after war Columbus in 1872 was well on its way to becoming more than a city in name only.

Today’s illustration shows exactly how the new urban place was coming into being.

A little explanation is in order about cities in the Midwest in the 1800s and Columbus in particular.

Founded to be the capital of Ohio in 1812, Columbus grew slowly at first. The borough of Columbus was formed in 1816. At the time, the population of the frontier capital city was about 700 people.

Columbus officially became a city in 1834 in the wake of the arrival of the Ohio Canal and the National Road. To become a city in those days – just as it is today – a place needed a population of 5,000 people. Columbus in 1834 was not what one would call a booming metropolis.

By the beginning of the American Civil War in 1861, Columbus had gotten considerably bigger, with much of the growth due to the arrival of large numbers of German and Irish immigrants. All of this – and the arrival of a railroad or two – resulted in 18,000 people living in Columbus as the War Between the States broke out.

Between 1850 and 1860, the population of Columbus had grown only by 3 percent.

All of that changed with the Civil War. Undoubtedly, the presence of 26,000 Union troops and more than 10,000 Confederate prisoners of war at Camp Chase on the Far West Side contributed to the growth of the city. In any case, the population of Columbus in 1870 was 31,274 people –

a 68 percent increase over the course of the decade. That growth would cont i n u e ED through the LENTZ 1870s, and by 1880, the population of Columbus was 51,647.

The capital city was a city indeed.

Much of that dynamic growth and change is captured in the bird’s-eye view with today’s column. Dated 1872, the illustration looks at Columbus from the southwest to the northeast as if one were flying over the city at the height of roughly 500 feet.

One may wonder how the artist came to be 500 feet over the city in an age before aircraft other than balloons. The answer is that the artist was never up in the air at all.

Bird’s-eye views such as the one we see here were created by an artist – or more likely a small group of artists – wandering the streets of the city and sketching every building they encountered. The artist then returned to the studio to create the finished drawing.

The result tells us a lot about the emerging city that a simple map or sketch could not.

To the north, it’s clear the impact of the arrival of railroads to the city in 1850 was profound. The city grew to the north and whole new neighborhoods sprung up. The area had a large Irish population, and by 1850 the street we today call Nationwide Boule-

A bird’s-eye view of Columbus in 1872.

COURTESY OF THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS

vard loosely was referred to as “Irish Broadway.”

To the south of the downtown area, the German community had become quite large after beginning its expansion from Livingston Avenue. The Brewery District along the river employed dozens of workers, but most of the residents of the “Sud End” or South End were employed by the many small businesses in the neighborhood.

Plagued by recurrent flooding, the original Franklinton village on the near west side of the river appears to be almost empty compared to the rest of Columbus. Many people refused to live in a flood plain, leaving the West Side to the factories and businesses unaffected by an occasional inundation.

The biggest changes took place in and around Statehouse Square. As late as 1860, most of the square was surrounded on three side by the homes of the politically prominent or economically powerful. Few people lived more than a few blocks from where they

worked and shopped. Columbus was a “walking city.”

By 1872, that was no longer true. Horse-drawn streetcars appeared on High Street in 1863 and, by 1872, streetcar lines moved away from downtown in every direction. An easterly streetcar line reached the site of Lunatic Asylum on East Broad Street. After a spectacular fire in 1868, the decision was made to abandon the place. The empty ground was acquired and soon became the fashionable East Park Place Addition. It was the place to live in 1872.

The streetcar suburbs that began to appear were a response to the growth of the central business district and the replacement of houses downtown with office buildings and shops.

With shops, theaters and a nightlife that never ended, Columbus by 1872 was a capital city in every sense of the phrase.

Home Safety Month: How to find a Trusted Home Safety Contractor

It is not uncommon for us to get calls from homeowners asking for help because their safety renovations, completed by another party, don’t work.

Simply driving around town, I regularly see wheelchair ramps that are not code compliant if not outright dangerous. Many home owners in need of safety renovations begin with the premise that any contractor can do the job. This is simply not true. In many cases, the renovations are done in a way that unfortunately offers little to no accessibility for the person that lives in the home or are downright unsafe.

Any reputable accessibility contractor should spend time with you in your home watching how you get about and identifying any trouble spots. We do this for every client! It is an important step because it helps us identify how to offer accessibility now, as well as down the road. Needs vary from person to person. If you are unsteady on your feet or use a wheelchair, the bathroom may be your most challenging room. If stairs are your problem, an outside ramp or a lift system may be the solution that you need. Simply put, your personal needs should dictate the direction of the project.

As you move to signing a contract, make sure that the scope of work is clearly defined, in writing.

Require the contractor to have a floor plan so you can clearly visualize what is being proposed. In more comprehensive projects, the contract should lay out a job schedule that you understand with a contractor payment schedule tied to specific milestones. Finally, make sure that your contractor is licensed and insured, that they obtain building permits and have references for previous accessibility work. Finding a reputable accessibility contractor is critical and following these steps will give you peace of mind and make sure that you are protected.

Home Safety Month is a community campaign for seniors and homeowners with limited mobility brought to you by Creative Housing/Creative Renovations. To learn more about our home safety construction services call 1.614.418.7725 or visit our Home Safety Month webpage at www.accessibilityrenovations.org.

development of tornadoes in and close to the area.

During a tornado watch, review tornado safety plans and be prepared to move to a safe place if conditions worsen. Listen to an NOAA weather radio or 10TV for storm updates.

Whether it’s thunderstorms or fires, your family should have an emergency plan. For instance, you may want to urge your kids to come inside when they see lightning or hear thunder. This is especially important for those days your family is at the pool or on the sports field.

As for fires, map out an evacuation plan and then communicate ahead of time where you will meet in the event of a fire.

Have a first aid or safety kit available for any emergency.

And look for more storm safety tips here in ThisWeek News, on 10TV News and on 10TV.com. I’ll always be tracking storms days before they arrive with my “Weather Geek Reports� on Facebook.

Weather where you live author Chris Bradley is chief meteorologist at WBNS-10TV.

(Issue 9) has culminated in a community conversation about how we want to develop in the future,� Carrier said. “Keep Hilliard Beautiful will stick around and continue to advocate for what we think is best.�

City officials, including Mayor Don Schonhardt, City Council President Nathan Painter and Meeks, campaigned against Issue 9, opining its passage would have a sharp and sudden negative impact on the city’s ability to compete for quality commercial and residential developments. “We will wait and see how it all plays out,� Meeks said.

Looking back, he said, the campaign was stressful on him and others who campaigned against Issue 9. “I wish it could have been done differently, but that was the path (the proponents) chose,� Meeks said.

He questioned why Carrier and his companions chose a referendum as a first choice of action.

Carrier responded that it was the residents who chose the city’s path. “The people spoke. ... They did not want residential TIFs. We followed the process outlined in the charter (and) now we know the actual number is thousands of people who agree (with our position),� he said March 22.

Carrier said he is ready to move forward and hopes for cooperation. “It is important we begin to work together as one community and not be divisive in order to attempt to gain in the short term. ...

Economic development needs to be a win for the entire community and all the agencies that serve us,� Carrier said.

Meeks said he wouldn’t need to tell future developers upfront about potential hurdles that could result from the changes. “They know. The development community is concerned about what has happened in Hilliard,� Meeks said. “From our perspective, we will continue to aggressively market ourselves (and) it will come down to the perception of the developer and how fast we can get (projects going).�

Some proponents of the charter amendment contend the administration overstated the potential loss of development. “(The changes) don’t apply to commercial development. They apply only to using TIFs for residential development,� said Les Carrier, a Hilliard City Council member and co-founder of Keep Hilliard Beautiful, a committee that circulated a charter-change petition last year and secured a writ of mandamus from the Supreme Court of Ohio to compel Hilliard City Council to place the issue on the ballot.

Carrier, Hilliard school board members Paul Lambert and Andy Teater and Norwich Township Trustee Larry Earman formed the nucleus of Keep Hilliard Beautiful. “I’ve never seen anything like it this,�

Carrier said upon the March 15 approval of Issue 9. “It’s a huge win for the community.

They spoke very loudly (at the polls).�

Keep Hilliard Beautiful formed in the wake of emergency action by City Council last August to rezone land north of Davidson Road that allowed for the construction of 218 apartments.

A TIF district also was applied to the development. kcorvo@thisweeknews.com “(That) emergency vote got us here, but @ThisWeekCorvo

agreement for the 7 acres.

The proposed $315,000 sale price is the equivalent of $45,000 per acre and represents a profit compared to the $40,000 per acre the city paid when it bought almost 104 acres last year from the Hilliard school district, Schonhardt said.

Baseball, football and lacrosse conditioning, as well as performance training, will be among the facility’s focuses, Thompson said.

If opened as scheduled this fall, it will be the second Bo Jackson’s Elite Sports site in the company. The first facility is in Lockport, Ill., near Chicago.

The company is exploring as many as 20 more sites in the U.S., Thompson said.

Hilliard City Council on March 14 approved the sale of the 7 acres on the east side of Cosgray Road, across the street from Homestead Park, for $315,000 to Bo Jackson’s Elite Sports Hilliard LLC. The facility will be identical to the multipurpose facility Bo Jackson’s Elite Sports planned to build inside Roger A. Reynolds Municipal Park, according to Mayor Don Schonhardt.

On Sept. 23, 2013, Jackson and his staff attended a groundbreaking at the park, but the project was delayed because of investor concerns about building the facility on leased land, according to Hilliard officials.

The project was revived after the city and kcorvo@thisweeknews.com Bo Jackson’s Elite Sports reached a purchase @ThisWeekCorvo

Block’s plans new store, will close E. Broad St. location Block’s Bagels’ 29-year run at 3415 E. Broad St. is coming to an end.

Steve Block, a partner in the locally based business, said the East Side store will close April 3.

“We want to get closer to Bexley,” he said. “We want to open a new, modern store that could be the prototype for future expansion.”

He said he’s planning a “substantial” investment in a nearby property, but declined to disclose the location because a lease hasn’t been signed.

Block said he does not want to spend the money to renovate the current East Broad Street location, opting instead to start fresh with a new layout and several new features.

Those with a history in Columbus recognize Block’s, which is knocking on the door of its 50th anniversary.

Others who are newer to central Ohio might appreciate the business’ handson ownership and attention to the product.

All bagels, chicken salad, challah rye breads and other edibles are made at 6115 McNaughten Center, which opened in 1980. Steve Block’s 82year-old father, Harold “Hal” Block, still works at the Reynoldsburg-area store.

Hal Block said there are a lot of memories wrapped up in the East Broad Street store, but the move will be good for the company.

“Sometimes you have to accept to change,” he said.

Still, he hopes to maintain the strong customer base.

“Our food is terrific,” he said. “I’ve learned over the years you can raise the prices but never touch the quality.”

The elder Block, then a traveling

salesman who moved his family from New York City to Columbus, opened the first bagel location in 1967 on Kellner Road. At the time, it had seven varieties of bagels and a reach-in cooler with lox, cream cheese and a small selection of other items.

When Kellner store closed in 1987, the family immediately opened the one on East Broad Street. Hal’s wife, Audrey Block, who was a regular fixture on East Broad Street, died in 2009.

The family opened a third in the 1990s on Sawmill Road but a streetwidening project and increased competition caused it to close, he said.

“It’s hard,” he said. “Everybody has bagels.”

Nevertheless, the Block’s products expanded through the years. The McNaughten Center location serves as the commissary kitchen for the 28 bagel flavors, bread and baked goods.

“When you’re in business for 50 years, people grow up eating your bagels,” Steve Block said.

Block’s has a number of sandwiches, ranging in price from $6 to $9, offering classic deli meats – corned beef, pastrami and roast beef. Lox continues to be a top seller, Block said.

Customers also can customize their sandwiches.

“People come in here with combinations you couldn’t believe,” he said.

Hours are 6 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and 6:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. For more information, call 614-235-2551.

The segment is set to air April 27.

Cray opened two years ago in the old Wonder Bread building, 697 N. Fourth St., with a menu of custom sliders. But increased ticket times “really turned people off,” Park said. Cray then started bleeding about $2,000 a week, she said.

Athletes of the Year

Area’s best in winter sports honored From staff reports

With the winter season having concluded, it’s time to announce our Athletes of the Year. The girls basketball honoree was captain of the previously announced Super 12 teams. Northland’s Seth Towns was named the top boys basketball player, and Central Crossing’s Kameron Teacher was named the top wrestler.

A story on him can be found in this edition.

Meche’la Cobb GIRLS BASKETBALL After losing her junior season to a torn left ACL, this 6-foot guard sparked New Albany by averaging 19.9 points, 10 rebounds, 1.8 blocks and 1.2 steals.

According to coach Jeff Blunt, Cobb inspired her teammates with her play and her positive attitude.

“She was terrific on and off the court this year, and I think a lot of that comes from her going from being individualistic to more of a teambased player,” Blunt said. “As we picked up the pieces from this season, she was very concerned about missing her teammates and her coaches. She was a shoulder to lean on. She was everywhere we needed her to be.”

Cobb, who will play at Ohio University, led New Albany to a 14-11 overall record and a 9-5 mark in the OCC-Capital Division, as well as to the cusp of the program’s first Division I district championship. The Eagles lost to Upper Arlington 5947 in a district final Feb. 27.

“I’m going to miss New Albany,” Cobb said. “We had a great season and got farther than some people thought we would. We almost got a district championship, and I’m so happy I could do it with this team.”

Darian Connors GYMNASTICS The Hilliard Bradley senior was state runner-up on the balance beam, representing the highest finish of any area competitor at state.

Connors, in her first season with the Jaguars after competing at the club level, also reached state on vault and in the all-around. She tied for 16th (9.075) of 36 gymnasts on vault and finished 11th (35.9) of 33 in the all-around.

“We would’ve loved to have had Darian for all four years, not just because of her skills, but because she did a wonderful job of embracing the program and all of her teammates,” coach Carol Eskay said. “She was a great fit for the team and is a hard worker. She’s just a great young lady all around.”

Connors won district titles in the all-around (35.75) and on beam (9.425) and placed third on vault

(9.05). She also helped Bradley win its fourth consecutive OCC-Capital title by finishing first in the all-around (35.725) and placing second on beam (9.2) and vault (9.025).

Alex Fleetwood BOYS BOWLING Fleetwood, a sophomore, led central Ohio with a 224 average and helped Westerville Central reach the Division I state tournament March 4 at Wayne Webb’s Columbus Bowl.

He also led the Warhawks to two league titles, as they won the Central Ohio High School Bowling Conference-North and OCC-Cardinal.

His average surpassed Central’s program record of 223 set by Jay Foote in the 2007-08 season.

“He’s an awesome kid. He’s very unassuming,” coach Julie Wells said.

Fleetwood, who bowls year-round, had a high game of 279 and high three-game series of 721.

“I had a great season,” he said. “I never thought I would bowl this well.

Fleetwood had a 643 series at state after rolling a 599 at district and a 607 at sectional.

ThisWeek’s 2015-16 Super 12 Wrestling Team The Captain

State title caps perfect season for Teacher

By SCOTT HENNEN THISWEEKSPORTS.COM

Kameron Teacher is not your typical heavyweight wrestler.

Despite weighing 283 pounds, the Central Crossing High School senior is fluid and nimble on – and off – the mat.

Teacher displayed his nimbleness after winning the Division I state championship March 5 at Ohio State by taking a direct route to the awards podium stage.

“Kam has incredible balance,” coach Jamie Ramirez said. “Winning the heavyweight title, he was the last wrestler announced and he just jumped onto the stage without using the stairs. It was pretty awesome.”

Teacher finished the season 47-0 and has been Kameron named ThisWeek Super Teacher 12 captain. He also was named the state tournament’s Most Valuable Wrestler after going 4-0 and winning his final by injury default over Elyria’s Kevin Vough. Teacher held a 7-2 advantage in the third period when Vough suffered a match-ending leg injury.

Teacher and 132-pounder Jaden Mattox both won titles to become the first Central Crossing athletes to win state championships in any sport.

As a junior, Teacher won his first 49 matches before going 1-2 at state. He acknowledged that the atmosphere of the state tournament overwhelmed him, but he didn’t allow that to happen this season.

“I didn’t pay attention to it,” said Teacher, who finished his career 147-28. “I told myself, ‘Don’t look up at the crowd. Just look at the mat and wrestle.’ It’s like wrestling in any other high school tournament. It’s just a bigger building.”

Teacher did not start wrestling until high school, but credited the sport with making him a better athlete.

“It is the hardest sport I’ve ever done, because it is has the most conditioning and pushes you to the max,” Teacher said.

“When I started, I thought, ‘There’s no way this is harder than football,’ but it was.

Wrestling changed me. It showed me how much hard work can pay off.”

Teacher hopes to wrestle and play football in college, but has yet to make a college decision. shennen@thisweeknews.com @ThisWeekHennen

ANA ABDULJELIL The Whitehall senior won the program’s first state title since 1960, defeating St. Paris Graham’s Jeffrey Thomas 9-5 in the Division II state final at 113. Abduljelil, a three-time state qualifier who will compete for the University of Indianapolis, finished 46-2 on the season and went 167-12 in his career, breaking the program record for career wins held by 2007 graduate Corey Dulaney (160).

“The state title proved to himself that he can overcome any obstacle that stands in his way and he can achieve all his dreams,” coach Steve Pennington said.“The proudest accomplishment for me was he did all this while staying humble and leading the team by example. He is the hardest-working kid I have ever coached.”

JARED BALL The Hilliard Darby sophomore made his second appearance in the Division I state tournament, going 5-1 and placing third at 160. Ball bounced back from a quarterfinal loss at state to win his final four matches.

He finished the season 45-5. Ball went 1-2 at state at 138 as a freshman and is 68-15 for his career.

“Jared has a vast background in wrestling, which serves as a fantastic foundation for his success on the mat,” coach Brendan Moody said. “But his true talent is his mental toughness and ability to block out any distractions or negativity and focus on being successful. He attempts to be great in every drill session, live session, conditioning session, lifting session and in every match.”

GREG BRUSCO A four-time state qualifier, the Delaware senior went 53-4 and placed third at 152 in the Division I state tournament. Brusco, who owns the program record for career victories (167) and tied the program record for wins in a season this year, also won district and sectional titles and was the OCC-Capital Wrestler of the Year.

He placed fourth at state as both a freshman (113) and junior (138).

“Greg is the most decorated wrestler ever for Delaware,” coach Josh Heffernan said. “What he has done in his four years on the mat has been amazing. People will always connect his name with the best to ever wrestle here, but I’m most proud of the growth he has made as a student and a young man.”

DOM DEMAS The Dublin Coffman junior fell one win short of a second consecutive Division I state championship and a perfect season, as he lost to Massillon Perry’s David Carr 8-4 in the final at 145 to finish 44-1. Demas, who won sectional and district championships this season, is 129-9 for his career.

“Dom accomplished some great things this season,” coach Chance Van Gundy said. “He had an undefeated regular season and postseason until his state final match. He was able to come up big time and time again in our duals and tournaments. Dom was certainly a huge part of the team success we had this season. Dom didn’t just win; he dominated almost everyone he faced.”

GIO DISABATO The Hilliard Davidson sophomore made his second appearance in the Division I state tournament, going 4-2 and placing fourth at 106 to finish the season 55-3. DiSabato opened state with a 4-2 loss to Solon’s Jake Canitano, but avenged the loss by beating Canitano 53 in a consolation semifinal. DiSabato, who placed sixth at state last season in the same weight class, is 102-11 for his career.

“Gio had another outstanding year,” coach Dominic DiSabato said. “Having 55 wins and placing fourth at state is an amazing accomplishment. As a coach and father, I couldn’t be more proud of him. Gio has a combination of toughness, a desire to win, work ethic and skill that leads to the success he has had.”

BRENDAN FITZGERALD The Grandview senior was the Division III state runner-up at 138, having lost to Delta’s Dustin Marteney 7-6 in the final to finish the season 45-4.

The program’s first four-time state qualifier, Fitzgerald owns a program-best career record of 156-21 and holds the record for career pins (128).

Fitzgerald, who plans to walk on at Ohio State, won his second consecutive district title this season as well as his fourth league championship.

“Brendan is just a hard-working kid who has a passion for wrestling,” coach Sam Mehling said. “He just loves the sport and he wrestles his best when he is out there having fun.”

About the athletes...

ThisWeek’s Super 12 team profiles the top high school wrestlers – regardless of weight class – in our coverage area. The team was determined by the sports staff and by nominations from area coaches.

KYLE LAWSON The Olentangy Liberty junior will have a chance to win four state titles after capturing his third by beating Wadsworth’s Joey Baughman 6-0 in the Division I state final at 160. Lawson, who finished the season 37-1, won Division II state titles for St. Paris Graham as a sophomore (152) and freshman (138).

He came down with a case of poison sumac that sidelined him for two weeks this season but recovered in time for the postseason, in which he also won sectional and district titles.

“He doesn’t get too worked up and stays pretty even-keeled, whether things are going good or going bad,” coach Mark Marinelli said. “He keeps plugging away.”

TREVOR LAWSON The younger brother of Kyle Lawson made a name for himself this season.

Trevor Lawson, a sophomore at Olentangy Liberty, couldn’t break into the lineup a year ago at St. Paris Graham but settled in at 170 for the Patriots.

Lawson fell short of winning the Division I state title, losing to Pickerington Central’s Joseph Terry 7-5 in the final to finish the season 46-7. He lost to Terry 3-1 in a sectional semifinal but beat Terry 3-2 to win the district title.

“He has a big motor,” coach Mark Marinelli said. “He only had four matches last year and this year I told him we’d get him 25 matches. He was at 170 and he wanted to be a couple below that, but we decided to let him stay at that weight and let him improve.”

JADEN MATTOX The Central Crossing sophomore won the Division I state title at 132, defeating Mason’s Zackary Donathan 4-3 in the final to finish the season 43-1.

Mattox, who was state runner-up at 113 last season, also won sectional and district titles this season and has a 95-4 career record.

“Jaden is just a phenomenal wrestler,” coach Jamie Ramirez said. “What makes him so good is he is one of the best scramblers that I have seen. He doesn’t panic, but just keeps wrestling, and it’s really hard to score on him.”

Mattox lost his fourth match of the season, but won his final 40.

BRAKAN MEAD The Olentangy Liberty junior followed a Division I state runner-up finish at 106 a year ago by placing third in the same weight this season.

Mead won all three matches at sectional by pin and posted three pins on his way to winning the district championship. At state, he lost to BrecksvilleBroadview Heights’ Gabriel Tagg 6-4 in overtime in a semifinal but came back to win his next two matches and finished the season 45-3.

“After he got beat (in a state semifinal), he was upset, but he had a good attitude,” coach Mark Marinelli said. “He actually wrestled better in the wrestle-backs than he did in the championship round, which says something about him. I was happy he battled and didn’t give up.”

JOSEPH TERRY The Pickerington Central senior won the Division I state championship at 170 in his first state appearance.

Terry finished the season 45-4, defeating Olentangy Liberty’s Trevor Lawson 7-5 in the state final.A sectional champion and district runner-up this season, he finished with a career record of 159-24.

“As the season went on, he got more confident in himself,” coach Jason Allen said.“He beat a couple real good wrestlers throughout the season and I could see his confidence rising throughout the year. At the district tournament, we made some changes based upon how he wrestled in the finals and it worked out. … We can come up with the plan, but he has to execute it, and he executed it perfectly.”

Central Crossing senior heavyweight Kameron Teacher finished 47-0 in winning the Division I state championship and was named Most Valuable Wrestler at the state tournament.

Boys Basketball

Northland’s Towns named Super 12 captain

By JARROD ULREY THISWEEKSPORTS.COM

Last season, Northland High School boys basketball player Seth Towns shared Division I district Player of the Year honors with 2015 Newark graduate Jordan Dartis and was named ThisWeek Super 12 captain.

Towns proved to be even better this season, averaging an area-best 31.6 points along with 11 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 3.5 steals. The 6-foot-7 senior forward, who averaged about 10 more points than last season, shot nearly 80 percent from the free-throw line and better than 40 percent from 3point range.

Towns is just the fourth player to be named Super 12 captain two years in a row, joining 2010 Northland graduate Jared Sullinger, 2005 Brookhaven graduate Jamelle Cornley and 1997 Westland graduate Doug Davis, each of whom earned the honor as a junior and senior.

“He always plays with a chip on his shoulder because he doesn’t feel he’s respected,” coach Sean Taylor said of Towns.

“There’s always this guy who’s better or that guy, that he’s not quick enough.

“He’s put in the time and

wants to get better. He’s one of the best players I’ve ever been able to work with.”

After losing three starters from last year’s team that won 22 games and was a regional runner-up, Northland went 213 and won its ninth City League championship in 10 seasons.

Seeded third, the Vikings lost to sixth-seeded Upper Arlington 42-37 in a district semifinal March 2.

Towns had a game-high 35 points in a 46-45 win over Walnut Ridge in the City final Feb. 13.

“We go as he goes,” Taylor said. “When he plays hard and is active on the boards, that’s where we go.”

Towns stood out on the AAU circuit before becoming a key player for the Vikings as a freshman when he averaged 9.8 points. He increased his scoring average to 13.9 points as a sophomore and earned Super 12 honorable mention honors. Last season, he averaged 21.4 points and 11.5 rebounds.

“I’ve just (tried to keep) improving … working on all

Michigan, among others. “My leadership and aggression are coming out. That’s probably been my biggest upside.”

Towns leaves Northland as its all-time leading scorer with 2,018 points and as its record holder for points in a season with 759, which he scored this year. The previous career scoring leader was Sullinger (1,932).
