District could add 2-5 ‘head principal’ Domine proposes to change structure of elementary school administration By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers Elementary principal Chris Briggs is leaving the New Albany-Plain Local School District, and his departure could be the first of several changes in the structure of the elementary administration. Superintendent April Domine recommended at the school board’s July 25 meeting that Madeline Partlow, the district’s director of teaching and learning, replace Briggs this school year as grades 4-5 principal at the elementary school. Briggs is taking a job as Columbus City Schools’ regional director of schools. He will be in charge of 23 buildings. “Given only a few weeks until school begins, it is not feasible to conduct the extensive search that is necessary in order to find a highly experienced leader to fill this important position,” Domine wrote in a memo to the school board.
She said the district should then advertise Partlow’s position and find interim help until a new director of teaching and learning can be hired. “The first and most important consideration had to be, ‘How do we ensure that we have experienced principal leadership ready to start the school year and continue our programs?’” Domine said. As a long-term solution, Domine has prepared a two-year plan to implement a new administrative structure at the 2-5 elementary building. The building has 1,500 students, 125 staff members and two principals: one who oversees the second and third grades and one for the fourth and fifth grades. On average, elementary schools in Ohio have 350 students and operate with a principal, an assistant principal and 40 staff members.
All-day kindergarten pilot program will begin this year The New Albany-Plain Local school board received news July 25 that the all-day kindergarten pilot program can begin this school year. Superintendent April Domine said she has located grant money to begin the program, which would target academically at-risk students. Communications director Jeff Warner said the money for the program would come from Title I federal funding. “It’s very exciting,” said board member Natalie Matt. “I think it’s something we need to do.” Domine said the district would need to devote
only one classroom to the project and she’s already cleared it with the principal. At-risk students already have been identified through kindergarten screening. Domine said additional assessments would be completed at the beginning of the school year and the program could begin in October. Board vice president Laura Kohler asked for a budget and ways to gauge students’progress throughout the year. She said the district would then have to evaluate the program before the next school year. — Lori Wince

NAHS grad pursuing career as a writer
State tax incentive offered to potential tenant
By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers
By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers The Ohio Tax Credit Authority on July 25 approved a tax credit for Sonoco Plastics if it chooses to build a new 120,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in New Albany. Community development director Jennifer Chrysler said the project is pending further review of incentives, which could include tax abatements from the city. She said she has been negotiating with company representatives on the potential incentives. The state approved a 50-percent, 8-year jobcreation tax credit on Sonoco’s proposed $3.12 million annual payroll at the site, which would be in the personal care and beauty campus, Chrysler said. That campus, also known as business park east, is east of Babbitt Road on the north and south sides of state Route 161. The incentive is valued at $297,198. The jobcreation tax credit is refundable, which means Sonoco will pay all of its income taxes and be refunded 50 percent annually for the term of the incentive. To receive the credit, the company must agree to maintain operations on site for 11 years, according to information from the state. See STATE TAX INCENTIVE, page A2
Ellen Waddell knew from a young age she wanted to be a writer. Last week, she read excerpts from her first book at the Thurber House 2011 Summer Literary Picnic series’ “New Voices” event. “(The book has) real stories of people I saw out in public,” Waddell said of her book of essays, titled “She Said, Looking Forward.” Waddell, one of the valedictorians in the New Albany High School class of 2011, said she wrote the book as part of the school’s senior seminar graduation requirement. To graduate from NAHS, all seniors must research and complete a project and file paperwork to show how many hours they spent on it. “I knew I wanted to do something with writing because it’s an 80-hour project,” she said. “I didn’t want to get bored with it and I always wanted to be a writer. But I had never written nonfiction before.” Waddell said her connection with Thurber House honed her fiction skills. In elementary school, she took a fiction and fantasy writing class and later was part of the Thurber House’s Young Writers’ Studio. According to the Thurber House website, the Young Writers’ Studio is for students in ninth to 12th grade. Students work with professional writers to “learn new techniques, explore different genres, receive feedback on their work and have fun in a supportive environment with teens who love to write.” Waddell said she was once shy about sharing her writing, but the feedback she got at the Young Writers’Studio gave her more confidence in her work. “The positive feedback gave me confidence as a person, too,” she said.
Local business refits ‘worn out’ Salvation Army vehicle Traditional barbershop opens in New Albany By Eric George/ThisWeek
Ellen Waddell, a 2011 New Albany High School graduate, reads from her book of essays, titled “She Said, Looking Forward,” during the Thurber House’s Summer Literary Picnic series’ “New Voices” event July 20. Waddell wrote the book for her senior seminar project, which all NAHS seniors are required to complete to graduate.

A New Albany business and a Pataskala veteran recently offered their support to an organization with a dedicated purpose of helping others. Representatives of the Salvation Army in Central Ohio came to Commercial Vehicle Group (CVG) in New Albany on July 21 to pick up their refurbished 1995 canteen vehicle. The canteen is an emergency mobile disaster vehicle that is used on a weekly basis See SALVATION ARMY, page A4
By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers Barber Jake Bame takes an old-school approach to cutting hair. “It’s fueled by my love of keeping the old style alive,” Bame said. Bame has opened the Noble Baron Gentleman Barbers at 21 N. High St. The barbershop has a classic feel enhanced by the dark wood floors to the old photos of vintage barbershops on the walls. Appearance isn’t the only retro feature. In addition to traditional haircuts, Bame offers an oldfashioned barber’s shave using warm shaving cream, hot towels and a straight razor.
You have a hole in your house.
He also uses the straight razor on the back of the neck beneath the hairline and performs scalp massages. “There’s less of that today,” Bame said. “We’ve lost numbers.” Bame operated a shop called “Crew Cuts” on the Ohio State University campus for about seven years before deciding to bring some of the history back to his profession. “It’s kind of like a fast-food hair industry now,” he said. “Service stations used to do more than pump gas. They used to check oil and tire pressure.” Bame said the Noble Baron would be more like those old service stations, eventually having an es-

thetician to do facials and sun-damage repairs and offering a shoe-shine service, through which men can drop off their shoes and pick them up the next day. Bame even chose his location because of its history. The building at 21 N. High St. once housed a dentist. In the Middle Ages, barbers often doubled as surgeons and dentists. While working on the Ohio State campus, Bame met people from all over the world. But, he said, he wasn’t able to build a local clientele who kept returning because of the transient nature of college students. See TRADITIONAL BARBERSHOP, page A2

He has been encouraged by the small-town feel in New Albany. He hopes to have youngsters start coming to the barbershop with their fathers and mothers and keep coming back as they grow into adults. “I wanted something more long-term to get to know our clients,” he said. His location in the historic part of New Albany also fits his plans to add a putting green in the side yard where customers can practice while waiting. Though his focus is on haircuts for men, Bame said, he will not exclude women from services at the shop. He specializes in men’s short hair, but he said he would be happy to cut short hairstyles for women, as well. As he builds his customer base, Bame said, he plans to provide more services and more specialized cuts as his clientele demands. He also has room for two more barbers in the shop and already has two barber friends who share his love of historic barbering who are ready to come on.

“The project in New Albany includes the construction of a new manufacturing facility and the purchase of new machinery and equipment which will result in a fixed-asset investment of at least $17 million,” according to information from the state. The company will manufacture molded plastic bottles. According to projections, the manufacturing facility would create 100 full-time jobs within three years of its opening. “The average wage of the new full-time equivalents will be $15 per hour, plus $5.24 per hour in benefits. Sonoco has committed to hiring at least 10 percent disadvantaged and/or minority persons, as defined by the Ohio Administrative Code,” according to the Ohio Tax Credit Authority. Chrysler said Sonoco is looking at 10 acres near other manufacturers of products that give the personal care and beauty campus its name. Anomatic, which manufactures aluminum caps for bottles used in the beauty industry, would be one of those. Chrysler said she anticipates Sonoco will apply to be part of the personal care and beauty campus’community-reinvestment area (CRA), which would allow the company to receive a 100-percent abatement on real property taxes
6024 Bentgate Lane, Columbus, OH 43230 Homestead at the Preserve
for up to 10 years. She said the term of the abatement depends on how much environmentally friendly technology is used in the facility’s construction. Any extension of the CRA would have to be approved by New Albany City Council. The CRA program is an economic development tool administered by municipal and county governments that provides real-property-tax exemptions to businesses making investments in Ohio. To use the CRA program, a city, village or county petitions to the Ohio Department of Development for confirmation of a geographical area in which investment in housing traditionally has been discouraged. After an area is confirmed, communities may offer real-property-tax exemptions to taxpayers who invest in the area. Ohio is competing for Sonoco with locations in Canada and Illinois, two areas where the company already is operating. Sonoco also has two locations near Columbus, according to the company’s website. Sonoco Plastics was founded in 1899 and manufactures “industrial and consumer products.” It provides packaging services from 300 locations in 85 countries, according to the information from the state. lwince@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

ers featured at the New Voices event July 20. The others were Amanda Flower of Akron and Lee Kravitz of Cleveland. Waddell signed copies of her book after she spoke at the event. She said she has sold several books through the self-publishing website she used, but she is not sure how many, to date. Waddell will attend Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Md., in the fall to study writing. “My favorite is still fiction,” she said. “I’m a fiction writer at heart.” But Waddell said she also en-
joyed her study of nonfiction, which helped her “take time to notice the world around me. Sometimes, people don’t take time to do that.” The Thurber House event July 20 also featured a performance by a string quartet of Hilliard Davidson High School students who belong to the ProMusica Chamber Orchestra’s student advisory board. The students were Paige Sibeveih (violin), Alina Wungsirivesh (violin), Mary Carson (viola) and Jason Ng (cello). lwince@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

The Furniture Heartland www.furnitureheartland.com
Have a "Mission" this summer
M
ission furniture was a name first coined by Joseph McHugh, a New York furniture manufacturer and retailer, to describe his line of straight line rustic style furniture that he began producing in 1895. The mission style furniture design was based on a chair that had been designed for the Swedenborgian Church of New Jerusalem in San Francisco. The word “mission” references the Spanish missions throughout colonial California.The style became increasingly popular following the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo in 1901. Mission furniture caught on as a generic term for the style of furniture and also the European term “arts and crafts” was used. Mission style is a design that emphasizes simple horizontal and
vertical lines and flat panels that accentuate the grain of the wood (usually oak). This style was also part of the Arts and Crafts movement which was inspired by the writings of John Ruskin and the romanticism that surrounded craftsmen that took pride in his own personal handiwork. The Arts and Crafts movement occurred both with the British and in the Americas, and it is great to know that furniture that dated back into such important eras of history are still popular today. The irony of the mission style furniture icon of the Arts and Crafts movement has been reversed of its original meaning in that it is now mass produced and merchandised, and thus loosing some of its uniqueness that people originally sought. Nevertheless, it is still a beautiful piece of furniture designed as such to add nice lines and art to a person’s home. By recognizing the mission style, homeowner’s recognize the style
that has lasted through the times. Mission arts and crafts has blended well from the 19th century all the way to the current 21st century in terms of interior design and décor. Characterized by clean, straight lines, geometric shapes, natural elements and handcrafted pieces, common materials associated with this decorating style include wrought iron, stained glass and hardwood.

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

New Albany cruises to Country Club title By STEVEN COLLINS ThisWeek Community Newspapers

New Albany’s Hank Kallner swims in the boys 11-12 50-meter backstroke during the Country Club Swim League meet July 19.
New Albany High School graduates Alex Alfonso and David Huddle both played big roles in the New Albany Country Club swimming team’s victory in the Country Club Swim League championship on July 19 at home. The team scored 2,850.5 points to finish ahead of Wedgewood (2,369.5), The Lakes (2,011), Scioto (1,968), Kinsale (1,435), Worthington Hills (1,317.5), Tartan Fields (1,777.5), Brookside (1,043), Jefferson (955.5), Muirfield (919), Medallion (765.5) and Columbus (206.5). In their final club meet, Al-
fonso and Huddle led the way for New Albany. In the boys 15-and-over 50meter freestyle, Alfonso tied Jake Moore of Tartan Fields for first with a time of 24.75 seconds. Meet officials ruled the race was too close to call and gave both Alfonso and Moore the same time. Alfonso also was second in the 50 butterfly (27.23) and third in the 50 backstroke (29.99), while Huddle was third in the 50 fly (27.39) and sixth in the 50 free (25.98). Corey Ziegler, Frederick Jenny, Huddle and Alfonso finished second in the 200 medley relay (1:55.05) and Huddle, Jenny, Ziegler and Will Gleason were second in the 200 free relay
(1:50.42). “The meet was fun as always,” Alfonso said. “It’s our last club meet and I’m glad we did well.” Alfonso and Huddle’s high school coach and assistant at New Albany Country Club, Dave Wharton, was pleased with how they performed. “I’m very proud of both of them,” he said. “They have worked hard to improve themselves and their team and as long as they apply themselves they will continue to be successful.” Alfonso and Huddle both plan to continue swimming competitively.

Top Individual Performances: No. 3
Avery’s heroics led Newark to state title By JARROD ULREY 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 See LARSON, page B2 resulted in a missed layup.
TILE & GROUT CLEANING
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 quarter. 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 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

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
At a glance Below is a look at the New Albany and Columbus Academy football teams entering Monday, Aug. 1’s first day of official coaching: NEW ALBANY •Coach: Mark Mueller, seventh season •2010 record: 10-1 overall, 7-0 (first) in OCC-Capital •Last playoff appearance: 2010, lost in Division II first round •Opener: Aug. 27 vs. Licking Valley •Top expected returnees: Adam Bodrick (WR), Kevin Collins (WR), Zach Tomi (QB/DB), Mark Schubert (OL) and Connor Wilson (RB/DB) •Preseason outlook: Coming off their first perfect regular season, the twotime defending conference-champion Eagles now have postseason success on their minds after a first-round playoff exit last year.
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. “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
ACADEMY •Coach: Jim Collis, first season •2010 record: 5-5 overall, 3-4 (fifth) in MSL-Ohio •Last playoff appearance: 2006, lost in Division V regional semifinal •Opener: Aug. 26 vs. Zanesville Maysville •Top expected returnees: Isaac Mallory (OL/DL), Zach Ratcliff (TE/DE), Mitchell Slutsky (WR/DB), Tyler TerryWalker (OL) and R.J. Watters (WR/LB) •Preseason outlook: After the death of coach Mark Barren on June 9 following a heart attack, Academy chose Collis to take over. The fact that he led the program from 1996-2006 — the Vikings won the 2003 Division V state title — should ease what looks to be a transition period for the program.

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. “Obviously everybody gets a brand new start.

Leading the way for Wedgewood were Madison Wolfe, Annie Miller, Kim Farinacci and Noelle St. John, who won the girls 15-and-over 200 medley relay in 2:16.71. “I felt good and it was a very competitive race,” said Wolfe, who will be a senior at Olentangy in the fall. “But what makes the difference is that we work together as a team and we’re tight-knit like one big family.” St. John, who won a national championship in synchronized swimming in June, agreed. “We support each other even when we’re not at a meet,” she said. “If one of us is feeling down about anything, someone is always there to pick us up.” Gabby Veri of Scioto finished first in the girls 15-and-over 50 free (28.31) and 50 fly (30.6). Brookside’s Edward Cordek, Keeler Callahan, Andrew Rabe and Adam Rabe won the boys 15and-over 200 free relay (1:42.38).

Why does my jaw hurt? My jaw hurts when I wake up each morning. I have heard of something called TMJ, but don’t know much about it. What should I do?
Understanding and Easing the Pain TMDs, or temporomandibular disorders, can cause a number of symptoms that can mimic other illnesses. You may have a TMD, any one of a number of problems involving the chewing muscles, the jaw joint (the temporomandibular joint or TMJ), or both. Symptoms can include the following: • Unusual sounds (clicking, grinding or popping) that may or may not be accompanied by increased pain. • Locking or intermittent movement: The jaw joint, a ball-and-socket joint, may sometimes lock in an open position. Or it may be difficult to open your mouth because it feels locked or painful. • Ear pain: TMD may at first appear to be an ear infection, since TMD pain is usually felt in front of Jeffery L.

1 in 3 people suffer from asthma, allergies and diseases as the result of poor indoor air quality.
By Adam Cairns/ThisWeek
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. ELECTROLUX ®
AVERY Continued from page B1 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.” 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 points, he was one of the primary reasons St. Edward’s Tom Pritchard — an Indiana University recruit — was held to nine points on 3-for-7 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 Wildcats’ defense made it difficult for St. Edward 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. “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.” 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,” Avery said. “We had a ceremony and had a day named after us, ‘Newark State Championship Day.’ There was a lot of support
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. 4-10. Check back next week for No. 2 and let us know your thoughts at ThisWeekSPORTS.com.
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. 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 51-35 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
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 Myr-
surprising performances than what this 5-8 senior guard accomplished in leading the Warriors to a 93-87 overtime upset of second-seeded and state-ranked London in the second round of the Division II district tournament. Watkins Memorial was just 1-19 entering the matchup but got 57 points from Johnson, who made 19 of 34 from floor, including eight 3-pointers, and was 11-for-15 from the freethrow line. He added eight rebounds, six steals and five assists. 6. KHALILAH CARPENTER, Brookhaven girls track and field (June 23, 2000) — At the 2000 Division I state meet, the junior broke the meet and state records in the 100 meters with a time of 11.59 seconds on June 2. The next day, she won the 100 in 11.71 and the 200 title in 23.69, a time that lowered the state mark she already held. 5. JEFF BACKES, Upper Arlington football (Dec. 2, 2000) — In leading the Golden Bears to the Division I state title, the 5-9, 180-pound senior turned in a performance worthy of the Ohio Mr. Football award that he had received days earlier. Backes rushed for 183 yards and two touchdowns on 32 carries and preserved a 159 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 4-1 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.

tle 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 semi-pro 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.” julrey@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com
