Canine purchase awaits council action By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers The New Albany Police Department could have a new canine officer before the end of summer. “We went and looked at a dog last week,” said Police Chief Mark Chaney. “It’s a 1-year-old Belgian Malinois.” According to its agenda, New Albany City Council on July 19 was expected to approve supplemental appropriations to accept insurance funds

of up to $8,000, which would allow the police department to purchase another dog. However, the council meeting was canceled because only three members — Mayor Nancy Ferguson, Chip Fellows and Glyde Marsh — were present. A quorum of four is required for council meetings. City council’s next regular meeting is scheduled for Aug. 2. The police department acquired its first canine officer, Bungee, in August

Pending legislation

2010. He was killed in an accident May 25. Bungee also was a Belgian Malinois, though he was 3 years old and already highly trained. Chaney said the city had been talking to its insurance company to determine if Bungee’s replacement would be covered. New Albany used grant money to acquire Bungee last year. “Our insurance carrier, the Ohio Plan, is expected to reimburse all costs associated with the purchase of the dog

and some equipment that was lost,” said James Nicholson, city finance director. Nicholson said once the city receives the insurance check, it could reappropriate the funds to purchase the new dog. The 1-year-old dog Chaney and other officers recently met is from Germany and would work with the same trainer as Bungee. Bungee was partnered with officer Joel Strahler and lived with Strahler and his family.

By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers Abercrombie & Fitch is the first local company to apply for a conditional-use permit for fleet parking, even though the New Albany Planning Commission has not yet voted on the legislation allowing that type of parking in the business campuses. After tabling the legislation in June, pending more information, the planning commission reviewed the legislation again July 18 and said it had too many questions. The commission tabled the issue again. City council was expected to hear second reading of the legislation at its July 19 meeting, but the meeting was canceled because only three members — Mayor Nancy Ferguson, Chip Fellows and Glyde Marsh — were present. A quorum of four is required for council meetings. City council’s next regular meeting is scheduled for Aug. 2. Council typically does not vote on legislation without a recommendation from the planning commission. Attorney Aaron Underhill, who represents A&F, told the planning commission July 18 that the company hopes to add 90,000 square feet to what is called Distribution Center 1, north of Smith’s Mill Road. In doing so, the company would lose about 105 of its parking spots and would need to add parking on an adjacent lot, according to its application for the conditional-use permit. The company is consolidating operations of its two distribution centers into one, the application said. The additional distribution space will require more trucks, as well, which also increases the company’s need for parking. A&F recently purchased 26 acres for parking from the New Albany Co., but it cannot combine the property with its 300-acre campus, because of s tax-increment financing (TIF) district in place on the business campus.

Chaney said Strahler would work with a new dog. “Our canine handler hasn’t changed, just the canine,” he said. Chaney said he hopes the department could purchase the new dog in August and begin the six weeks of training to certify the dog with the state. He said council’s action would start the process.

Thirteen-year-old Grant Adams, of New Albany, prepares to hit the bag held by Denison University offensive lineman Matt Cochran on July 14 at the Big Red Football Camp at Denison University in Granville. The two-day camp was open to players in grades 4-8. The camp was run by the Denison football coaches and some Denison players.

The New Albany Planning Commission on July 18 unanimously approved amended preliminary and final development plans for the New Albany Co.’s proposed West Nine development near the New Albany Country Club. The commission also approved five variances for the project. NACo had made changes to the proposed development, so it required another review by the planning commission. “They added acreage and changed some of the design features, which is why it required your reconsideration,” Kathryn Meyer, the city’s deputy community development director, told the commission. Meyer said the original project included 12 lots on 12.331 acres, which was approved by the planning commission in May. NACo has since purchased more land, totaling 18.76 acres. The number of homes remains the same, but the lot sizes have increased to range from 1 acre to 2.5 acres. The bridge on the property has been changed to include a walking path. Original plans included a trail off to the side of the bridge, Meyer said. Recommendations made by the planning commission in May already have been incorporated, including the widening of the northwest end of a cul-de-sac on what will be called Club Boulevard. The walking path also was extended through

District’s community resources

Plan for database still under development By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers Developing a community resources database could be too extensive and too expensive to complete any time soon, the New Albany-Plain Local School District’s technology coordinator told the school board last week. “We can clearly see the value,” said school board vice president Laura Kohler. “But it’s tough to quantify the cost.” Researching the development of a community resources database was one of the initiatives from the strategic plan adopted last

year. Interim superintendent Bill Reimer recommended in October the district try to accomplish it, as well as six others, by the end of the school year. The database would help coordinate volunteers and match community members with existing or new school programs that suit their talents. It also could help coordinate fundraising efforts by preventing businesses from being contacted several times by different school contacts. During the board’s July 11 work session and special meeting, technology coordinator Jon Stonebraker said the district might need

help to create the database, which could require 200 hours of work and cost between $10,000 and $24,000. The prices he quoted were based on estimates of other project bids from outside consultants. Annual maintenance, based on the same bids, was estimated at $500 to $1,200. Stonebraker called the database a sizeable project. He said setting up the database would take a lot of work, making contacts with potential partners and getting information on how they can help the district. See DATABASE, page A5

to use the hand signals the rest of the day for practice, Burton said. The officers will also teach other skills. “We’ll show them something like having them ride as slow as they can through cones, with the goal being the slowest one wins,” Burton said. Riding slow helps children learn better balance on two wheels, he said. To demonstrate the importance of to paying attention while cycling, Burton said, the children will be challenged to work in pairs and cycle in opposite directions, crossing in front of each other to

create a figure-eight pattern. Burton also said vendors will have products for sale. Local bicycling clubs will be on hand, too. Burton said each child who participates will receive a medal. At the end of the day, children will have the opportunity to ride the trails in Swickard Woods under the supervision of the police officers.

FLEET PARKING Continued from page A1 A TIF is an economic development mechanism available to local governments to finance public infrastructure improvements and, in certain circumstances, residential rehabilitation, according to information from the Ohio Department of Development. A TIF works by locking in the taxable worth of real property at the value it holds at the time the authoriz-

ing legislation was approved. Payments derived from the increased assessed value of any improvement to real property beyond that amount are directed toward a separate fund to finance the construction of public infrastructure defined within the TIF legislation. Because A&F’s campus is within a TIF district, land cannot be added to the campus without changing the TIF, Underhill said. “The TIF does not allow that

parcel line to be redrawn,” Underhill said. To provide another option, the city introduced the legislation that would allow fleet parking off-site. Underhill said the timing might still work for A&F, if the board of zoning appeals approves the conditional use pending approval of the conditional-use legislation. A&F representatives could not be reached for comment before ThisWeek’s press time.

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 if 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 or below the ear. Be sure to talk with your dentist about these symptoms. There are a number of options to help reduce the pain.

By LORI WINCE

ThisWeek Community Newspapers ing, as it is close to Cupertino, approach to reinventing. as well

Superintendent April Domine visited California last month to study ways the New Albany-Plain Local School District could improve its performance. “It was a great opportunity to meet some wonderful educators,” Domine told the school board July 11. During her trip, Domine attended the TRECA/Apple Summer Institute at Apple headquarters in Cupertino. TRECA is the Tri-Rivers Educational Computer Association, which is based in Marion. “This annual conference is sponsored by Apple and TRECA and the expenses for the conference are paid for one participant per invited district,” Domine said. While in California, she said, she also visited the Fremont Unified School District in Fremont, which was one of 10 districts identified by the district’s benchmarking committee as a high-performing district to study for ideas to improve performance. “When I knew that I would be attending (the institute), I contacted the (Fremont) superintendent to see if I could come and visit with him and his staff,” Domine said. “I borrowed a car

where Apple is. There was no cost to the district.” At Fremont, Domine said, she learned students play a large part in initiating changes in the district. “The student voice helps drive things,” Domine said. The district is focused on academics and college preparatory programs, but, she said, it also face challenges similar to New Albany-Plain Local. The average high school class size is between 30 and 36 and classes have achievement gaps. Fremont’s achievement gaps are in the school’s white male population, she said. “They spent two hours with me and I interviewed them to learn many of the beliefs and practices, as well as student results that characterize their district,” she said. Domine said she was representing one of 20 Ohio school districts at the TRECA/Apple Summer Institute. “The conference is the only one of its kind where educators are invited into Apple Corporate,” she said. “In this unique experience, we have the opportunity to hear directly from Apple corporate directors and the vice presi-

as their innovations and their efforts to impact education.” Domine said she learned many applications that could help the district “reinvent education,” which is the district’s new vision, adopted in 2010. Board members asked about Domine’s trip during their July 11 meeting. Natalie Matt asked about “hybrid courses,” which feature both classroom teaching and online learning. Domine said the next stage of educational development provides more opportunities for children to learn both ways. Currently, the district offers several classes that provide online learning opportunities. “We have many instances where courses in the school are supported by visual learning,” said Jon Stonebraker, the district technology coordinator. lwince@thisweeknews.coms www.ThisWeekNews.com

Letter

Parks levy request on May ballot was ‘not justified’ To the editor: According to the June 29 issue of ThisWeek, New Albany Parks and Recreation board members would like to put the parks levy back on the November ballot. The primary reason the levy lost, as the only item on the May ballot, was that it was not justified. We are paying the highest effective property tax rate in Franklin County and the rationale offered for the levy was “we haven’t asked for a millage increase in 11 years.” That is hardly a good reason for raising taxes — a small millage increase that doubles the taxes collected by a half-million dollars. The parks board never justified why it needed to double its tax collections. Data from the Parks District shows that they had a $200,000-plus carryover from the previous year and are projecting

a $200,000-plus carryover for next year. They are only spending half of their current funds for operational needs. Why would they need to add $500,000 more? It appears this pattern has been repeated over those 11 years. I’m suspicious this is a back door way to fund a recreation center — another expenditure without majority community support. Parks and Recreation offered a $2,268,275 wish list for 2011. It includes $750,000 for athletics field turf (artificial turf); $707,775 for lights for two athletic fields; $260,000 for “field irrigation” (inground sprinkler); $100,000 for a pavilion; $75,000 for two basketball courts; $56,000 for two sand volleyball courts; and $40,000 for “fitness stations along path.” Park publications state they would like to develop and oper-

ate world-class, professional-class sports fields and to host more outside tournaments. Why should taxpayers provide professional-class fields and facilities? Artificial turf, sprinkler and lighting systems are excessive for facilities primarily used by children, as is the continuing expense of maintenance and water consumption. Perhaps the parks folks could prepare a detailed justification instead of a post card saying, “We haven’t asked you for 11 years.” News reports suggest that the school district, New Albany, and Plain Township will ask the taxpayers for more money in the near future. Can we expect reasonable and complete justifications for these requests? Bob Radigan New Albany

As it were

When building a capital city, first build a prison The first capital of the state of Ohio was located in Chillicothe. After a brief move to Zanesville, the capital returned to Chillicothe. But by 1810, the Ohio General Assembly was under more than a little pressure to move the capital to a place a bit more central. After looking at several places, the Assembly chose a site across from frontier Franklinton at the Forks of the Scioto and Olentangy rivers. They called the new town Columbus. Interestingly, the first public building erected in Columbus was not — as one might expect — the state capitol building. It was the state penitentiary. There was a decidedly practical reason why this was the case. The thrifty legislators planned to use prison labor to build the state’s new buildings and it would be useful to have a safe place to put them when their day’s work was done. The prison , where the cultural arts center is today. It is somewhat difficult to see what that area looked like two centuries ago. At that time, the two-story stoneand-brick house with a full basement stood at the crest of a steep slope that swept down to the river several hundred yards away. Built into the side of the hill, the west wall of the basement opened onto a large, fenced enclosure that served as the prison yard. The basement served as kitchen and service area for the prisoners, who lived in small huts built along the walls of the prison yard. Entering the prison through its front door on the eastern street side of the building, one found oneself in the first-floor home of the warden and his family. A prisoner entering the prison was lowered through a trapdoor in the floor to the prison below. From inside the prison yard, a stairway led to secure cells on the second floor of the stone house. Each day, the prisoners would sally forth from the prison to build a new capital city. By 1816, when the General Assembly arrived for its first session, a two-

story brick Statehouse was completed and was complemented on Statehouse Square with a state ED office building and a LENTZ courthouse. A few years later, a rather plain frame addition to the state office building would house local government officials. A public markethouse would be located nearby. Most of these public buildings were at least partially constructed by prison labor, as would be the new Ohio Statehouse, which

began to be built in 1839. Over the years, the prison expanded in size and its yard moved closer to the river. The arrival of the Ohio Canal and National Road in the 1830s forced the removal of the penitentiary to a new site at the corner of what is now Spring Street and Neil Avenue. While we know quite a bit about the work the prisoners did and how they did it, it is often harder to get an idea of what these prisoners were like. In 1901, a local paper offered a glimpse of some of these men while trumpeting the benefits of a new system of criminal identification. Dissatisfied with existing meth-

DATABASE Continued from page A1 Unfortunately, Superintendent April Domine said, the database is not a key priority given the financial constraints on the district. She said she is trying to streamline the process by using her office to connect resources and school officials. Stonebraker said the district already tries to ensure each student can take advantage of such opportunities as: • Meeting with real-world experts. • Experiencing apprenticeships and the work world. • Understanding global and international perspectives. • Completing service learning. • Conducting research and inquiry. • Performing, creating, designing and inventing. “Today, all of those opportunities are available to New Albany students,” Stonebraker said. But, he said, not all students are taking advantage of the opportunities. He said the district needs to coordinate those efforts in a proactive manner and continue to communicate how those resources are offered and will be used. Domine said the database would better organize all of those partnerships and volunteer efforts through one location “for a lot more clarity and support for our partners and us.” She said another aspect of the database would allow district residents to better understand how students benefit from the volunteers and donors. “Our partners want to know what their impact is and the answers could come from our database,” Domine said. Stonebraker said because of the potential cost, the database would have to be completed in three phases. He said first, the district must design the technical aspects of the database, then enter data and, finally, begin to manage its content. He said it could be as simple as starting with a Google site or format in compiling information.

Board member Natalie Matt asked if school resources, such as students in the Digital Network Assistants (DNA) program who do maintenance work on the computer systems in the summer, could be used to help establish the database. Kohler said building the system would not take as much time as tracking down volunteers and donors and getting their information for the database. DNA students are trained to build computer hardware systems and install software. They currently do not contact people on the phone for any reason. Kohler said it might be easiest to start with philanthropic partners as a test to see if the information could be compiled. “The real cost is in tracking down the resources,” she said. Kohler also said the board could implement a new policy to help prevent multiple school contacts from asking for help from the same donors while the database is being studied further. Board member Cheri Lehmann said the school board would first need to know how the database would be used and how it would be accessed. Stonebraker said he’d like to see a safe and secure system that could be accessed by students, staff and community members. Board member Michael Klein said not all teachers may be ready to be part of the database, because there are some teachers in the district who welcome technology and others who do not. School board president Mark Ryan thanked Stonebraker for his work and said the district may need to look further into the issue to see if it is feasible. Domine said the district could present the next logical steps to the board at a future meeting.

AS IT WERE Warren County, May 17, 1824, to serve three years for horse stealing, and afterwards pardoned by the governor, there is the following entry in pencil, ‘$30 will be paid for him delivered.’ George Kerns from Hamilton County is particularly described as having ‘a piece bit off the underside of left ear.’ Ephraim Ellis, a Negro, is described … as having ‘eyes dark, hair curly, complexion dark.’ George Giles is simply Bertillonized as having ‘a dimple on his chin. “Jacob Mills is described as follows: ‘Complexion baldheaded’ and ‘tottering with old age.’ John Mahany’s ‘general appearance’ consists in the fact he ‘has a mother in Cincinnati.’Scott Maythe has ‘two scars on left leg caused by the bite of a dog.’The ‘general appearance’ of another, Captain Mack, consists of some marks ‘in India ink’ and ‘a wife and four children.’ Another, Silas Adkins, ‘personal appearance’ is recorded as ‘a scar on right cheek and a wife in Licking County.’Jonathan Blodgett was a ‘much married man’with ‘a scar on the right side and a wife in Huron.’ “Squire Bull is ‘blind of the right eye out.’John A. Davis is minute-

Continued from page A4 ods, a French policeman named Alphonse Bertillon had developed a new type of identification based on taking precise measurements of several parts of the body of an offender. These included head length, head width, length of the middle finger, length of the left foot and length of the forearm from the elbow to the tip of the middle finger. Reputed to be infallible since no two people would have the same measurements, the system was first adopted in Europe and by the turn of the century was in use in most parts of the United States. To illustrate the crudity of earlier systems used in Ohio, a reporter examined the early entry logs of the Ohio Penitentiary and offered some examples of how prisoners arriving at the institution were described. Perhaps without intending to do so, the descriptions tell us something about these people who were the first prisoners in a new town: “When the penitentiary was opened in 1815, the descriptions taken were more than interesting. Some of the entries have a comic cast. Of John Irons, received of

ly described as having ‘a scar on the right shin and one on upper lip.’ Roswell Fleming was ‘lame on the left knee.’George Herbey’s ‘personal appearance’ would be sure to give him away because in addition to a dark complexion, his ‘wife in Ashtabula County had a scar on the right ancle and foot.’ Finally, there was Alfred Beason, alias Martin. Of him, the record simply said, “think he went out in 1835.” These brief descriptions tell us at least a little about some of the men who literally built the capital city in its earliest days. And one last note: For all of the confidence the writer in 1901 had of the Bertillon System and its superiority to old ways, it should be mentioned that two years later, in 1903, two men in Leavenworth Prison were not only found to have the same name but precisely the same measurements. Soon a new system — fingerprinting — would take the place of the “infallible” Bertillon method. Ed Lentz writes a history column for ThisWeek.

WEST NINE Continued from page A1 the development to the south, as recommended by the city’s park and trails advisory board, Meyer said. The approved variances include: • Reduced width of collector streets from 28 to 24 feet. • Reduced width of right of way on collector streets from 60 to 50 feet. • Reduced width of Club Boulevard and Club Circle from 20 to 18 feet. • Future development of the required park with playground equipment when NACo develops the land south of the development. • Reduced width of the preservation zone along the Rose Run Creek. The New Albany Country Club golf course runs along part of the creek and cannot be considered part of the preservation zone, said NACo development director Tom Rubey. Three residents of the Clivdon subdivisions, which are north of the proposed development, asked questions at the meeting.

Tom Lombardi of Chiswick Court said two streets come out of the subdivision but are not connected to other streets. Rubey said one would connect south to Southfield Drive, which connects to U.S. Route 62. The other would end in a cul-de-sac. Two other residents, Michelle Kalnas Richards and Donata Monnin of North Gate, said they are concerned about future road connections and traffic that could move through their subdivision from the West Nine development. Commission chair Neil Kirby said the city requires developments to connect roadways to provide better traffic flow. Commission member Ray Silverstein said the connections are helpful for emergency vehicles. Future connections to Thompson Road through Holkham already have been required through previous project zonings, Rubey said. Monnin asked if those could be prevented and Kirby said they could not. The proposed West Nine development will be built between

the New Albany Country Club and Clivdon developments, which are in Columbus city limits. Rubey said the project would be developed in two phases, with the first phase extending southeast of Clivdon Mews to a large circle. That phase includes seven lots. The second phase would include five lots farther east of the circle. It would include a road with a wooden bridge over the Rose Run stream. The road would end with a gate, which would be staffed by country-club personnel. Beyond the gate, a golf-cart path would extend east to the country club. In other business, the planning commission tabled a zoningchange application for two properties at the northeast corner of Reynoldsburg-New Albany and Morse roads, south of the New Albany Farms subdivision. The application was tabled in June and has been changed to remove a veterinary use proposed for the site.

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 realignment and expansion committee,

believes 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. “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 eight-team divisions and one with seven teams. “We are staying with the possibilSee MSL, page B2

Commentary

Athletes learn to deal with adversity The achievements of the high school student-athletes writing in my summer series are notable and numerous. They have won state championships in bowling, football, golf, wrestling and track and field. They have achieved great individual and team success. But along the way there LARRY have been defeats and disLARSON appointments. Each of these seniors-to-be explains how he or she has learned to handle adversity. Michela Paradiso, Upper Arlington, soccer and basketball: “I have a picture of myself after losing to Dublin Coffman in the regional Division I championship game my sophomore year on my bedroom wall. I see it every morning when I wake up. I think it is important to remember what defeat feels like as it creates motivation to improve and the desire and drive to never feel like that again.” Faith Washington, Reynoldsburg, track: “Disappointment is the goal that you failed to accomplish. Defeat is when you fail to try again. Never give up.” Napoleon Bell, Hartley, football and wrestling: “To be the best, one must experience defeat. One must know his mistakes and know where he does not want to be again.” Morgan Ransom, Columbus Academy, golf: “No matter how good you are there will always be disappointments. My advice is to move on and learn from your mistakes because defeat will make you stronger.” Austin Cuervo, St. Charles, golf: “I handle defeat and disappointment as fuel to go out and work even harder to be more prepared.” Chase Delande, Hilliard Davidson, football and wrestling: “Just tell yourself that you don’t ever want to feel that pain of losing again and that you need to work much harder to be successful.” Jimmy Gammill, New Albany, football: “Use defeat and disappointment as a means to grow and work harder. Then simply move on and do better next time.” Jake Blankenship, Gahanna, pole vault: “Don’t let disappointment and defeat get to you because everyone has down days and if you worry a lot about it then things will continue to go down and will do more harm than good.” Mary Wells, Westerville Central, bowling: “Defeat and disappointment are part of any game you play. What is important is that you are gracious in both victory and defeat.” Speaking of being gracious, win or lose, the student-athletes next week will discuss how they view respect and sportsmanship in competition. I’ll see you at a game.

Davidson pitcher Courtney Smith struck out 29 batters and hit the game-winning grand slam in the bottom of the 22nd inning in a 2006 Division I district final.

Top Individual Performances: No. 4

Smith shined in 22-inning game By SCOTT HENNEN

Counting down to No. 1

ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Courtney Smith remembers it like it was yesterday, even though it was more than five years ago. The emotion. The excitement. The exhaustion. The strikeouts. The grand slam. Especially the grand slam. In May 2006, Smith, a standout senior pitcher for the Hilliard Davidson High School softball team, went head-to-head with Sarah Phillips of Olentangy Liberty for 22 innings in a Division I district final at Pickerington Central. The three-day marathon wasn’t decided until Smith hit a grand slam in the bottom of the 22nd for a 4-1 victory. Smith also had 29 strikeouts, the 11th highest total in state history for an extra-inning game, according to the Ohio High School Athletic Association. In 2010, Hayley Flynn of Duncan Falls Philo set the state record with 55 strikeouts in 24 innings against Thornville Sheridan. “The biggest thing I remember is this wave of emotion,” Smith said. “I was exhausted

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. 5-10. Check back next week for No. 3 and let us know your thoughts at ThisWeekSPORTS.com. 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 5135 win over Wadsworth. The Ohio State recruit made 12 of 14 shots from the floor and was 5-for-6 from the freethrow line while adding five rebounds, four steals and two assists. 8. DARCY FISHBACK, Upper Arlington girls swimming (Feb. 27-28, 2009) — During preliminaries Feb. 27, Fishback broke the state record in the 100-yard butterfly when she finished in 53.38 seconds. She won her fourth state title in the event the next day in 54.17 seconds. Fishback also swam on two state-record relays, the 200 medley (1:43.59) and the 200 freestyle (1:34.24). 7. CHARLES JOHNSON, Watkins Memorial boys basketball (Feb. 24, 1995) — There have been few more surprising performances than what this 5-8 senior guard accomplished in leading the Warriors to a 93-87 overtime upset of second-seeded and stateranked London in the second round of the Division II district tournament. Watkins Memorial was just 1-19 en-

tering 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 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.

and excited both at the same time. It was amazing.” It remains the longest OHSAA softball tournament game. Liberty and Davidson played seven scoreless innings on May 17, were rained out and never took the field on May 18

and played 15 innings on May 19. “The first day (the teams) were neck and neck and I don’t think anyone had a hit,” Smith said. “I remember it rained for like three or four hours (on May 17) and there were no lights (at

Pickerington Central). “When we got rain the second day (May 18), I was really nervous because we had been playing well before the rain came. We were all really anxious to get out there and didn’t want to wait another day.”

NOS. 5-10:

Smith’s counterpart also had an impressive performance. Phillips struck out 30, which ties her for ninth in the state record book with Medina’s Jessica Miller in 1999, but she also surrendered Smith’s district-title winning home run. “I think she said it was a riseball, but I don’t think so because I wouldn’t have hit it if it was (a riseball),” Smith said. “Maybe I got out ahead of the pitch before it started to move or maybe it didn’t move. I knew it was high and I was able to make contact and get it over the fence.” It was the first home run Smith had hit at any level. She played one season at the University of Indianapolis and never hit another homer. “I would have to say the grand slam was better (than the 29 strikeouts),” said Smith, who had 77 wins at Davidson. “It was my first homer ever and just to be able to finally end that game.” Liberty took a 1-0 lead in the top of the 22nd. Rebecca Adam hit a two-out double and moved to third on a single by Phillips. See SMITH, page B2

SMITH “We lost a district final that way to Mount Vernon (3-1 in 10 innings in 2002) and I had been pushing to get the rule changed for years,” Forte said. “I had been on both sides of the international tiebreaker, but I think the game is muchimproved without it.” Before Smith’s grand slam, it was her right fielder and catcher who combined to make the game’s biggest play 11 innings earlier. Phillips was at second base with two outs in the top of the 11th when Kellie Schultz singled to right field. Phillips hesitated as she rounded third as right fielder Abbey Parsley threw to Heading. There was a collision at the plate, but Heading held on to the ball to end the scoring threat. “Courtney had a great individual performance, but we made some great defensive plays across the board and that (play at the plate) was definitely one of those,” Forte said. “I was talking to Abbey last week and she said that it was one of the most memorable plays she had as a softball player.” Along with her 29 strikeouts, Smith surrendered 14 hits and issued two walks, one in the sixth and one in the 11th. The Wildcats had 16 hits against Phillips. “That game was a duel between Courtney and Sarah Phillips,” Heading said. “Courtney was always one to find ways to get people out. I remember her riseball, screwball and changeup were working. She just found ways to, not necessarily strike them out, but to get people out.” Smith graduated from the University of Indianapolis in 2010 with a marketing degree. She stayed in Indianapolis and works in communications for an economic development firm called Develop Indy. “I was talking to a guy from work last week who was a swimmer in high school,” Smith said. “I told him about it and he thought it was great and really had an appreciation that I had played in a game like that. It definitely was a game that I’ll never forget.”

Nathan and Michelle Hurd are organizing a 5K to be held July 30 to raise money for SIDS research. Their infant son, Will, died almost two years ago. The Hurds are pictured with their sons, Nate, 4, who is holding a picture of Will, Sam, 6, and Jack, 11 months.

SIDS Fundraiser

Family is committed to making difference By PAUL BATTERSON ThisWeek Community Newspapers

At the end of his eulogy for his 2-month-old son, Will, on Aug. 7, 2009, Nathan Hurd urged mourners to take action. “I told people, ‘When you think of our family, don’t think about how sad it is that we lost a child, embrace the commitment to make a difference and do something positive,’” said Hurd, a Grove City resident whose son died of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). His words struck a chord with family and friends, who approached Hurd’s father-in-law, Bill Brestle, about organizing what became the BabyWill.Org/ SIDS Awareness 5-kilometer run. The second annual event will be held July 30 at downtown Columbus’ Genoa Park on the riverfront side of the Center of Science and Industry (COSI), 333 W. Broad St. Sign-in for the event is at 7:30 a.m. and the race begins at 8 a.m. After family and friends organized the inaugural event, Nathan and Michelle Hurd and their children — Sam (6), Nate (4) and Jack (11 months) — are more involved this year. The event will take place nearly two years to the day that Will died of SIDS. “Originally that date wasn’t our choice,” Nathan Hurd said. “Our friends and family decided to do it on that day because they were really looking out

for us. “An event like this is for a very serious cause and we’re so emotionally invested in it. At the same time, you can’t be sad. The hardest part has been working through our grief while staying positive and optimistic that someday the medical community will solve SIDS.” SIDS, the leading cause of death in otherwise healthy babies between the ages of 1 month and 1 year, is responsible for about 50 deaths per every 100,000 births in the United States. Since 1983, the number of SIDS deaths has fallen by more than 50 percent, but there are about 2,500 deaths per year in the U.S., according to websites dedicated to SIDS prevention. Last year, the BabyWill.Org/ SIDS Awareness run raised more than $17,000 for research. Hurd said the event attracted two types of participants. “We have a lot of passionate runners who participate. (In Columbus) there’s a vibrant running community and it amazes me how big and how passionate that group is,” he said. “The other group was families who have been personally impacted or know someone who has been affected by SIDS.” He said the event attracted several families who brought with them people to represent children who had died from SIDS. “There were more people there that we didn’t know than

MSL Continued from page B1 ity 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 (largeenrollment) schools like Canal (Winchester) and Teays Valley, especially in sports like football, you worry about injuries. You have concerns for the well-being of the kids.” As for a timetable for restructuring the MSL, Hayes would like to have things in order by the end of the calendar year. “My desire, as I shared with athletics directors and superin-

ones that we did,” he said. “It was very moving to see people show support for such a great cause. But on the other hand, it reminds you how serious the cause is because we have a personal connection to it.” Michelle Hurd said it was emotional watching more than 400 runners and walkers at the start of last year’s event. “There was a sea of emotions going on,” she said. “It was the first anniversary of Will’s death and I was due to have a (Caesarean) section two days later. It was hard remembering what had happened a year ago and here I was getting ready to have our fourth child.” The registration fee is $30 for adults and $20 for children 12 to 18 who sign up before Friday, July 15. It is $35 and $25 for those who sign up after July 15. Visit BabyWill.Org for information. pbatterson@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Emily Capretta followed with a liner that went off the glove of shortstop Cassady Busellato, scoring Adam. “It was a pitchers’ battle the whole time and we both gave up runs in the 22nd inning,” Smith said. “We went into the last inning with clear heads and ready to finish it.” Erin Roberts led off the bottom of the 22nd with a single before Lauren Espe and Meredith Parish followed with bunt singles to load the bases. Smith didn’t waste time, sending the first offering from Phillips over the left-field fence. “(Phillips) had retired like 13 or 14 in a row before we came up in the 22nd, so having our No. 9 batter, Erin Roberts, come up and get a hit was big,” Davidson coach Angelo Forte said. “Then Lauren Espe and Meredith Parish followed with bunts to load the bases and then (Liberty) shaded Courtney to right field. She had only hit one ball in her life to right field, so I was hoping she could get the ball to fall in left field so we could win it. (The grand slam) was something I never saw coming.” The Wildcats advanced to a regional semifinal at Ohio State, where they lost to Marysville 12-1 to finish the season 23-7. Davidson catcher Kaylyn Heading said the district final was the kind of game that a player never forgets. “It was 22 innings and those type of games just don’t come around often,” said Heading, who played four seasons at Rio Grande and graduated in 2010 with a degree in professional and business communication. “Courtney pitched great and then came up and got the big hit like she had throughout the season. It was a pretty magical ending. It’s still pretty cool, even today.” Forte said the game might never have reached the 22nd inning had a rule change not been made before the 2006 season. Before that, after games reached the 10th inning, they were played according to international rules. That meant at the beginning of each half inning, a runner was placed shennen@thisweeknews.com at second base with no outs. www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Baseball

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

Rick Parcher has been an ambassador and teacher of baseball for 50 years. He not only instructs his players on the finer points of the game, but provides “life lessons” by reading poems and stories to help emphasize his points. “There are so many life lessons in baseball,” said the 71year-old Parcher, who coaches Tree of Life Christian School in the spring and the North Columbus Comets in the summer. “A lot of (the lessons) you learn the hard way — learning to deal with victory and defeat, success and failure. You learn how to make your own needs secondary to those of the team. “Those things all come automatically with athletics, but I believe life lessons that are learned are learned more carefully, definitely and effectively if the process is guided by the coach, so I do a lot of talking.” Parcher, who has coached at Tree of Life since 1995, winning four MOCAL championships, helped form the Comets in 1962 during his senior year at the University of Wisconsin. The team’s first home field was at Whetstone Park. The Under-14 travel team now is a member of the Central Ohio Youth Baseball League. The Comets improved to 1812 after going 2-1 in the Dusty Diamonds Classic in Kent on July 16-17. Parcher was recognized for his contributions to the sport during the North Columbus Sports Firecracker Tournament on July 4 at Ridgeview Middle School, which has been the Comets’ home since 1975. Parcher received a plaque for his years of service and a field at Ridgeview was named in his honor.

The Comets then honored their coach by winning the U14 division title. “I’ve told the guys they probably won’t realize how fortunate they are until they’re older and maybe some of them play in college,” Comets assistant coach Rick Sibert said. “They’re learning things now that guys typically don’t learn until they get to play college ball. From a baseball perspective, they’re so fortunate to learn these things and how to play the game the right way.” Parcher has fond memories of teams and players throughout the years. The Comets finished 38-6 in 1968, 31-0 in 1972 and 41-3 in 1981. The team has played on the state, regional and national level, competing in national tournaments in Atlanta, Knoxville and Memphis, Tenn., and Manhattan, Kan. The team won three sportsmanship awards in four years at the Knoxville event. “A lot of that has been a lot of fun, but you can’t do that every year,” Parcher said of competing on the national level. “You have to have both the talent and the interest.” Parcher has coached several players who have enjoyed successful careers in baseball, including Mike Durant, who played in the program in the early 1980s. Durant, a catcher, played at Watterson and Ohio State before playing with the Minnesota Twins in 1996. Parcher recalled that Jeff Smith, who retired as baseball coach at Centennial in 2006, won the Comets’ first sportsmanship award in 1962. Parcher continues to recognize the team’s top sportsman each year. “I’ve coached hundreds of kids,” Parcher said. “The team is

a team of talented kids and almost all of them go on to significant careers in high school and college, a few in the pros. As a result of that there have been a lot of memories and a lot of those guys are still around and I get to see them from time to time. That’s great. I really enjoy that.” Tree of Life athletics director Yohana Hill credits Parcher for building the school’s baseball program. “Everyone loves coach Parcher,” she said. “It is amazing. I can go into any baseball environment in Columbus and someone there will know ‘Parch.’ He has coached fathers, sons and grandsons. He is a talented and knowledgeable baseball coach and has been for decades, but he is an even better individual. “I believe that many would say that baseball is his passion, but even though I know he loves the game immensely, I think mentoring and disciplining young men is truly his passion.” It appears Parcher has no intentions of stepping away from the game. “I’m still enjoying myself. There are some various things that will determine whether I decide to come back. One is whether I feel like the group coming up still wants me to be involved. The other would be my health. I’m in reasonably good health. I have a lot of pain in my joints, so I’m doing a lot of sitting down now,” he said. “Every year is gravy from now on. Anything I get after this point is certainly a blessing. I’ve had a great ride. I really have enjoyed it. All of it has been joyful, even the parts that were difficult.”

Abdominal pain is not uncommon

New Albany ®

Recurrent abdominal pain is very prevalent in children and adolescents, making it one of the most common reasons children are referred to a pediatric gastroenterologist, a doctor who treats problems with the digestive tract and liver. One common functional disorder that causes abdominal pain in children is irritable bowel syndrome. IBS is a gastrointestinal disorder that manifests itself as recurrent abdominal pain associated with changes in bowel movements. Children with IBS may have diarrhea, constipation or both. A typical symptom is bellyache around the belly button that usually goes away or gets better after a bowel movement. Between bellyaches, the child feels fine. The exact cause of IBS is unknown, but it is believed to be due to hypersensitive nerve cells that reside in the intestines and send messages to the brain. Stress, certain types of foods such as spicy or greasy foods, caffeine, chocolate or milk have been

known to trigger IBS symptoms. Physical and emotional trauma can also play a role in the developDESALEGN ment of IBS. Some children YACOB with IBS tend to be more sensitive to stressful situations such as family conflict, moving, taking tests and issues with peers. Sometimes, triggers are never identified. Though IBS generally doesn’t lead to serious health problems, it may affect school attendance and daily function. It is important to consult your primary care physician to address the problem and rule out other reasons why your child

may be having abdominal pain. Functional dyspepsia (indigestion) is another common functional disorder. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, burping, decreased appetite, stomach pain and/or bloating. It is not associated with bowel movement changes. Indigestion usually happens infrequently, but be sure to monitor symptoms regularly and consult your primary physician with concerns. Some other gastrointestinal problems that may cause recurrent abdominal pain are Celiac disease, gastritis and lactose intolerance. Your doctor will decide what labs and tests need to be done, based on the symptoms and physical exam. More serious diseases such as appendicitis, Crohn’s disease, inflammation of the pancreas, stomach ulcers and intes-

tinal blockage will typically cause sudden and persistent pain with other associated symptoms such as severe vomiting, fever, bloody stools or significant weight loss. Diagnosis of any functional gastrointestinal disorder is based on a thorough history and physical exam, along with a few basic lab tests. Treatment may involve dietary and lifestyle changes and/or medication. Consult your primary care physician if you suspect your child may be suffering from any of these disorders. Dr. Desalegn Yacob is an attending physician in the Division of Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition at Nationwide Children’s Hospital and an assistant professor of Clinical Pediatrics at The Ohio State University College of Medicine.
