I would like to use it to hit the ground running in the next four years.” Wilson is a professor of law at Ohio State University and has been on the board for eight years. “I found it to be satisfying,” Wilson said. “There is a lot to be done to keep an excellent school district improving.” Kucinski is a language-arts teacher-leader at Dublin Coffman High School. He has a Ph.D. in educational psychology from OSU.
His Facebook page on March 3 listed his qualifications as community member, homeowner, taxpayer and parent of three boys. He has lived in Colonial Hills for 10 years. Hyre is a tax lawyer, accountant and real estate investor who lives in Worthington Hills. He reportedly participated in the Worthington Hills Independence Day parade as a board candidate. He recently spoke to the board about the lack of transparency in the process of negotiating and approving labor contracts for teachers. cbrooks@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNEWS.com

Also, administrators will abide by the same health-care cost cap that Worthington teachers had agreed to in their most recent
family coverage. “While I think it unlikely that the cap will be reached in the three years of this agreement, it does set a ceiling on health-care costs that will be useful in levy planning,” board president Marc Schare said. The administrative package is

A closer look
Five incumbents and three challengers have announced plans to run for five seats on Worthington City Council in November. Candidates have until 4 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 10, to file nominating petitions with the Franklin County Board of Elections. By then, more candidates could appear, and the three challengers must decide if they want to run for a four-year or a two-year term. Bonnie Michael, Bob Chosy and Dave Norstrom all plan to run to maintain their seats. This is the regular year in which their seats would be up for re-election and, if elected, they would serve four more years on council. That is where “regular” ends with this election. Robert Schmidt and Joseph Davis have been appointed to council in the past two years. Schmidt was appointed to replace Dave Foust, who resigned when he moved from the city. Davis was appointed to replace Mike Duffey, who left to serve in the Ohio House of Representatives. Both promised the council members who appointed them that they would be candidates in the fall for the seats to which they were appointed. If elected, they will serve two-year terms. Doug Smith, D.J. Falcoski and Rachael Dorothy must decide whether to challenge one of the established council members for a four-year seat or take on Schmidt and Davis for a two-year term. Smith said he has not decided but is leaning toward running against Michael, Chosy and Norstrom for a four-year term. Falcoski said he would seek one of the two-year seats. He said he respects Michael too much to run against her. Dorothy did not return phone calls, and her candidate website does not indicate which seat she would pursue.
Bonnie Michael, Bob Chosy and Dave Norstrom all plan to run to maintain their seats. This is the regular year in which their seats would be up for re-election and, if elected, they would serve for four more years.
None of the veteran council members had a difficult time deciding to run, they said. Each wants to continue to be involved with projects that are under way, such as the development of the Shops at Worthington Place, the reconstruction of the I-270/U.S. Route 23 interchange and the Wilson Bridge corridor plan. Michael, an attorney in private practice, is seeking a fifth term. Continuing to provide highquality city services in light of state budget cuts will be a challenge facing council in the coming years, she said. Chosy, a retired physician, also seeks a fifth term. “With so many changes on council, I think it’s good to have a person with some history on there,” he said. Norstrom, a transportation consultant, is completing his first fouryear term. “I value what I am doing,” he said. “Cost-effective operations continue to be a primary concern.” Davis, co-owner of Worthington Jewelers, said he believes the proposed Riverlea annexation and the challenges created by the state budget would be issues in the campaign. Schmidt, an attorney with Porter, Wright, Morris & Arthur, played a pivotal role on the Riverlea Annexation Commission and believes the annexation proposal would be a key part of the campaign.

Council sends Riverlea annexation to voters By CANDY BROOKS ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Worthington City Council on July 25 voted unanimously to place the Riverlea annexation question on the Nov. 8 ballot. Riverlea Village Council is expected to follow suit Aug. 1. Neither council faces any choice in the matter. A state law requires both to order the question of annexation to a vote of the next regular election after an annexation commission submits the conditions of annexation to them. Worthington council passed the ordinance as an emergency, meaning it goes into effect immediately and does not face the possibility of a recall. Council discussed the proposed annexation conditions that had been drawn up by a six-mem-
ber commission comprising Worthington and Riverlea council members. Council member Dave Norstrom asked if the annexation would be revenue neutral to the city of Worthington and received conflicting answers. City manager Matt Greeson said it wouldn’t be cost neutral, adding that expenses would be realized and with no revenue to offset them. Council member Robert Schmidt, who served on the annexation commission, said the conditions include “a very complex financial equation.” “I believe it is as close to revenue neutral as we could have made it,” Schmidt said. Council will continue the discussion when it reconvenes in September. It is expected to take a position on the annexation at that time, though a collective position isn’t required. cbrooks@thisweeknews.com

Worthington Criterium
Bike race rolls into town July 29 By CANDY BROOKS ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Cyclists of all skill levels will race through the streets of Worthington Estates on July 29, providing prize money for winners and free entertainment for neighbors. The Worthington Criterium Bike Race will begin at 6 p.m. Friday, with an amateur race open to all. It will continue with a children’s race at 6:45 p.m. and end with the professional race at 7 p.m. Streets of Worthington Estates will be closed from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. The race route will begin on Guyer Street, in front of Worthingway Middle School, and then proceed down Longfellow Avenue, Masefield Street, Stevenson
COUNCIL
Continued from page A1 er to enforce. The former ordinance outlawed political signs in the public rights of way or within 10 feet of a right of way. The 10-foot rule has been eliminated. Now signs are prohibited only in the right of way or on public property. Because 10 feet from the right of way is close to structures on some properties, it could have been difficult for city employees to move the signs to comply with the former law.
Political signs still are limited to 12 square feet in size and must be removed within one week after an election. Following the deadline for filing with the Franklin County Board of Elections on Aug.10, each candidate and the filing agency for each issue will be sent a letter outlining the city’s new regulations. Besides moving illegally placed signs, the city will notify the property owner and the candidate if a political sign on private property exceeds the allowable sign area.

Hiring an economic development manager in December was a good move, he said, but council needs to listen to his ideas and give him the proper support.

Residents along the route often set up lawn chairs and have parties during the race, but everyone is invited to park nearby and walk to the route to watch the races. This year’s race will benefit Ride 2 Recovery, which builds bicycles for wounded veterans to aid in their recovery from war-related injuries. Organizer Tym Tyler said he expects about 100 racers to take part in the regional- and professional-level races. The prizes will total about $500 and $1,000, respectively. Most racers come from Ohio and nearby states and race nearly every weekend during the season. “Most have other jobs, too, but
they spend an inordinate amount of time riding bikes,” Tyler said. The prize packages have been kept relatively small to attract Midwest racers and to keep the size of the event reasonable, he said. “I would rather have a decent turnout than have the next Lance Armstrong here,” Tyler said. “People in the neighborhoods just want to see the guys riding from their nice shaded lawns.” An open race for amateurs will begin at 6 p.m. The public is invited to participate. Register on site beginning at 5 p.m. or register earlier online at www.truesport.com. Registration for the children’s race begins at 5 p.m. All participants must wear helmets. cbrooks@thisweeknews.com

The salary freeze comes on the heels of administrators conceding their salary increases in 2009-10. Along with the freezes accepted by the new superintendent, the Worthington Education Association (WEA) and the Worthington classified-workers association, school employees evidently recognize the financial
times we are in, Schare said. The agreement also holds administrators harmless if state legislation forbids the current practice of paying the employee portion of retirement. Schare said he did not think it was fair to ask a group to take a de facto 11-percent pay cut. “With this final agreement in place, our district has achieved a high level of cost certainty subject only to increases in employee health-care costs, and even those are capped,” he said. cbrooks@thisweeknews.com

He received a 10-year award from the National Cancer Institute to explore possible virus causes of cancer and leukemia, and composed over 120 publications in the fields of virology, immunology and oncology.

Have You Heard? by Greg VanHorssen GOOD REASON NOT TO TAKE ASPIRIN Those afflicted with the phantom noise in their ears that no one else can hear (“tinnitus”) should know that this problem can be linked to aspirin consumption. Aspirin’s potential effect upon hearing was originally noted when the drug was first synthesized over a century ago. A warning of this potential effect may even have been on the aspirin bottle label. In any case, it is thought that salicylic acid, the active ingredient in aspirin, can damage the cochlea in the inner ear. This potential side effect is more likely to occur at the higher daily doses taken for the treatment of chronic pain. However, occasional aspirin users have also reported tinnitus. The problem may cease when aspirin usage stops. The most common type of tinnitus is subjective tinnitus. Subjective tinnitus includes sounds only you can hear. AT ABSOLUTE HEARING SOLUTIONS we strongly encourage anyone who is concerned about their hearing to have a comprehensive hearing exam. To schedule an appointment, please call 614-654-4309. We offer both standard and premium digital hearing aids for much less than the competition, plus we offer the best and most detailed hearing tests using problem solving equipment the others don’t have. Our office is located at 1000 Morrison Rd., Suite H, Gahanna.
We handle Starkey, Phonak, Siemens, Unitron, MicroTech, GN ReSound, Rexton, Oticon, and Widex. Plus, we have the same products as NU-Ear, Audibel, AudioSync, and Miracle Ear, but you will save $1,000’s with us!

Post 239 wins 2 of first 3 games at state By BRAD EMERINE ThisWeek Community Newspapers
By Chris Parker/ThisWeek
Post 239’s Matthew Zuccaro connects with a pitch July 25 against Pickerington Post 283.
LANCASTER — The Pickerington Post 283 and Worthington Post 239 baseball teams both won their opening games in the American Legion state tournament on July 25. Worthington scored 10 runs in the last two innings, including a one-out, two-run home run by Dan Eurich in the bottom of the ninth, to rally past Coshocton Post 65 10-9 in its opener at Beavers Field. Pickerington, which received one of four first-round byes in the 12-team double-elimination tournament, then beat Worthington 92 later in the day at Lancaster High School. “We didn’t play real focused or real relaxed in the first part of the game, but we closed pretty well,” Pickerington coach Chris Weber said. In the Pickerington-Worthington game, the score was tied at 2 in the fifth inning when rain suspended play. Kyle Chontos, Colt Turley and Tony Winters had run-scoring hits in a five-run seventh inning, and Pickerington added two
runs in the top of the ninth. Pickerington, which improved to 38-3, beat Worthington 5-0 in a regular-season meeting June 24. “The score may not reflect it, but we were very competitive against a very good Pickerington team today and that was not the case in the 5-0 loss,” said Worthington assistant coach Chris Olson, who guided the team July 25 as coach Jim Townsend had a previous engagement. “Our guys battled all day today and we’ve built some confidence.” Chontos broke the tie with an RBI single in the seventh and Turley followed with a triple to right-center field. After Worthington starter Alio Gasbarro hit Matt Connor with a pitch, Scott Pancoast squeezed home a run and was safe on a fielder’s choice. Winters added an RBI single and Pancoast stole home on the back end of a double steal. In the ninth, Connor doubled off reliever Andy Bean and scored on a triple by Pancoast. Winters then had an RBI groundout. Pickerington started opened the game with consecutive doubles by Isac Franklin and Joe Matalon for a 1-0 lead. Worthington took
a 2-1 lead in the fourth when Eurich hit a two-out, two-run double, but Post 239 managed just four hits off Pickerington starter Rob Sexton and reliever Zach Beaver. Turley’s RBI single tied the game in the fifth inning before a two-and-a-half hour rain delay. Beaver relieved Sexton after the rain delay. “I felt pretty good coming off vacation the last week,” Beaver said. “My arm was rested. One run still leaves you still feeling a little queasy, but when you put up five (runs in the seventh) it helps you to relax and do your job.” Worthington went 1-2 at state last season, but surpassed that effort July 26 when it defeated Beverly/Lowell Posts 389/750 10-2 behind a six-hitter by Blake Adkins to improve to 2-1. Worthington appeared on the verge of losing by run-rule in its first game, trailing 70 after four innings. Instead, Eurich’s home run touched off a celebration and gave Worthington momenSee LEGION, page B2
Football
Teams set for start of season 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 weightroom work, which began for many the moment last season ended. The past few weeks have included activities such as team camps and 7-on-7 passing tournaments, with a few glimpses of the playbook thrown in. Beginning Monday, Aug. 1, it finally 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 watching 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.

Berlin replaces Davis at Kilbourne By PAUL BATTERSON ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Having listened to longtime coach Bobbie Davis conduct practices, it may take a while for members of the Worthington Kilbourne High School girls tennis team to get used to hearing a new voice. Ken Berlin, who recently was named as Davis’ successor, knows that. “I’m just happy about the opportunity of following in the footsteps of Bobbie Davis and the program she ran there,” Berlin said. “I’m looking to continue on the great tradition they have here and expanding it even further. “There’s always a little bit of a transiSee FOOTBALL, page B2 tion period when you have a new coach.

The biggest challenge is making that transition to a new voice than the one that you have been used to for so many years.” Berlin believes in the same philosophy as Davis, that tennis is a team sport. That philosophy was drilled into him when he played for R.B. Chamberlin High School in Twinsburg from 1994-97 and Hiram College from 1997-2001. Berlin was a two-time all-Chagrin Valley Conference selection in high school and played first singles and first doubles for Hiram in 2000 and 2001. He earned all-NCAC honors his senior year. “Individual accolades are great, but we’re going to take pride in team victories,” Berlin said. “Although technically tennis is considered to be an individual sport, when it
comes down to it, you win or lose matches based on how the whole team does.” This will be Berlin’s first time coaching at the high school level, but he served as a teaching professional at Western Reserve Racquet and Fitness Club in Streetsboro for four years before moving to Columbus and now serves as a teaching professional at the Racquet Club of Columbus. “He has a real passion for tennis, and I think he will be a great leader for our girls and our program,” Kilbourne athletics director Jeff Todd said. “He carries himself well and his knowledge came across well in his interview.” Berlin said he didn’t realize he wanted to be a coach until he was in college. “I had such a great experience in high
school and at Hiram,” he said. “That’s when I turned the corner. I realized I wanted to make tennis a big part of my life.” Berlin is the fourth coach in program history. Davis started the program in 1991 and coached the team through 2002 before stepping down for health reasons. After coaching the team in 2004, she stepped aside again for a year for personal reasons before returning in 2006. The Wolves won league titles in 1999, 2000, 2004 and 2005 and sent two doubles teams and one singles player to the Division I state tournament.

Swimming
New Albany rolls to Country Club championship By STEVEN COLLINS ThisWeek Community Newspapers
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, Alfonso 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. Huddle plans to swim for the club team at Ohio State and Alfonso for the varsity at DePauw University in Indiana.
New Albany won both the boys and girls titles with point totals of 1,476 and 1,374.5, respectively. On the boys side, Wedgewood finished second (1,294) and Scioto (1,017.5) was third. For the girls, The Lakes was second (1,145) and Wedgewood was third (1,075.5). New Albany set league records in five relays: the girls 9-10 100 medley relay of Mia Lachey, Samantha Kass, Olivia Bergmann and Lydia Cornelius (1:11.07), the boys 9-10 100 medley relay of Austin Wharton, Thomas Lennox, Andrew Bernsdorf and Andrew Donley (1:11.47), the
FOOTBALL Continued from page B1 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 on, because many

Donley also set a league record of 30.97 in the girls 11-12 50 fly.

Below is a look at the Kilbourne and Thomas football teams entering Monday, Aug. 1’s first day of official coaching: KILBOURNE •Coach: Vince Trombetti, sixth season •2010 record: 4-6 overall, 3-4 (fifth) in OCC-Central •Last playoff appearance: 2008, lost in Division I regional semifinal •Opener: Aug. 26 at Westerville North •Top expected returnees: Conor Flaherty (LB), Brian Miller (QB), Evan Nordengren (WR), Brian Sommers (LB), Chris Skura (OL/DL) and Matt Wylly (DB) •Preseason outlook: The Wolves couldn’t overcome injuries on the way to their first losing season since 2006 a year ago. Now competing in Division II, Kilbourne will be young on both sides of the line but has several ex-

There are a lot of drills where we try to put kids in sit-
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 tightknit 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 15-and-over 200 free relay (1:42.38). www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com
LEGION
At a glance of the players who come out for football as freshmen are competing in the sport on a team for the first time. For those taking over a program for the first time such as Brookhaven’s Trevor White, that factor as well as figuring out how to install a new system can make for some complicated moments of preparation even before the first day of official coaching. “Especially with a new program, a big thing early on is setting the tone,” White said. “You want to be getting everybody on the same page, and what we’ve been debating is how much of the offense and defense do we put in. Do we just throw it at them or do we take it step by step? “We’ll have some kids that played (youth) football but some who have never played the sport before. You’ve always got to walk a line of bringing kids along but not holding the veterans back, and especially with a new program, it’s important that you’re really getting to know the team. I’m really excited to

stretched its lead to 9-5 in the top of the ninth off Sean Hoy, who relieved starter Cody Strayer in the eighth. “It’s a mental game and one of momentum,” Olson said. “We made some base-running mistakes early, but our goal was just to knock their starter out. We kept battling and made that happen and we got the momentum we needed. Dan Eurich was the right guy to have in that spot. He hit home runs on consecutive at-bats in the district tournament.” Zuccaro led off the bottom of the ninth with a walk. Meador and Bean both singled to load the bases and Sam Adams hit a two-run single to center to make it 9-7. Lykens added a sacrifice fly, scoring Bean and setting the stage for Eurich’s home run. Against Beverly/Lowell, Sam Adams drove in three runs with a home run, double and single. Lykens added two RBI, Meador doubled and singled and Eurich hit a solo home run.
tum and confidence heading into its game against Pickerington, which had the best record in the tournament field. “When it left the bat, I thought it was going to be caught,” Eurich said. “But then it kept carrying and I thought it was going to land in front of the fence and I had to run hard because I was the winning run. Then I saw it hit the top of the fence and bounce over. That was just a tremendous feeling.” Coshocton starter Thomas Ellis limited Worthington to five hits through seven innings, but Post 239 had five consecutive hits to begin the eighth. Matthew Zuccaro singled and Will Meador tripled to right-center field to chase Ellis. Bean greeted reliever Michael Adams with an RBI double and Sam Adams lined a home run to left-center field.

Top Individual Performances: No. 3
Avery’s heroics led Newark to state title By JARROD ULREY
Counting down to No. 1
ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Greg Avery of the Newark High School boys basketball team couldn’t have been more excited for the spotlight of the Division I state championship game March 15, 2008, against Lakewood St. Edward. Even now, though, he cringes at how his game started — with a pair of what he considered bad shots, the first of which resulted in a missed layup. But little else went wrong that night for Avery. The 6-foot-3 senior tied his career high of 33 points on 14 of 18 shooting and added 11 rebounds, three assists and four steals to lead the Wildcats to a 6552 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 2114 and made his only 3-point attempt with 6 minutes, 57 seconds remaining in the quarter to give the Wildcats a 2414 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,
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 staterecord 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
but I guess he was just in that zone and we felt really good about the shots he was taking. “He had a huge steal at the end of the third quarter and just played well the entire game. His whole game, just everything he did, he really competed well that night.” The other starters for the Wildcats — post player Dane Kopp, forward Will McCoy and guards Cody Dennison and
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 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 free-throw line. He added eight rebounds, six steals and five assists. 6. KHALILAH CARPENTER, Brook-haven 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. 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.
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 standout performance of the team’s defense made it difficult for St. Edward — and Pritchard in particular — to take good shots. Dennison, who played two seasons for Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and will play for Tiffin University this season, remembers talking with Avery when both were in elementary school about one day making it to the state tournament. “He pretty much did everything for us that night,” Dennison said. “We’d had the mindset to be in that situation since we were in fifth grade, and in my junior year and Greg’s senior year, we finally reached that goal. That will to win got us over the hump. “I personally tried to give him the ball all the time, and everybody fed off of him. We were all clicking. Everything he was shooting was going in.” Avery remembers fondly the scene when he and his teammates returned to Newark that night and the celebrations that followed over the coming days. It was a fitting end to a prep career in which Avery scored 1,131 points. He made third-team all-state and first-team all-district his senior season as he averaged 18.9 points, 8.6 rebounds and 4.2 assists. Avery became the sixth player in program history to score more than 1,000 career points. “I remember driving home and the fans were waiting for us when we got back to our gym,” Avery said. “We had a ceremony and had a day named after us, ‘Newark State Championship Day.’ There was a lot of support from Newark.” Shortly after the state championship, Avery signed to play collegiately for Western Carolina. He averaged 6.6 points
and 3.9 rebounds in 30 games, including four starts, during the 2008-09 season. After the season, he decided to transfer to the University of Findlay, a Division II school, because of the coming birth of his daughter. During the 200910 season for the Oilers, Avery averaged 3.7 points and 2.7 rebounds in 27 games, including five starts. Despite having what he deemed a successful transition early on to Findlay’s program, longtime coach Ron Niekamp, who retired earlier this year after 26 seasons, told Avery after the season that he “didn’t really fit the system,” Avery said. In search of a place to play, Avery was considering Valdosta State, a Division II school in Valdosta, Ga., when on July 26, 2010, he and two other men were accused of assaulting a man in Myrtle Beach, S.C. “They tried to hit me with a felony, but I didn’t do anything,” Avery said. “It set me back two more steps.” Avery now is a student at the Newark branch of Ohio State and working for Dennison’s father, Joe, but is hoping to play competitive basketball again soon. He is considering playing on the Division III or NAIA level, or could join a 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

and sophomore Claire Metka from last season, when they finished 11-5 and tied Hilliard Davidson for third in the OCC-Central Division at 5-2 and 47 points. Upper Arlington, the OTCA Division I state team champion, was first in the OCC-Central at 7-0 and 86 points, followed by Dublin Coff-
man (6-1, 60). Rounding out the standings were Thomas Worthington (3-4, 38), Hilliard Darby (2-5, 26), Westland (1-6, 11) and Central Crossing (0-7, 3). “I’m trying to get familiarized with the OCC as much as I can,” said Berlin who works with former Thomas Worthington coach
and current Dublin Jerome coach Tyler Stephen at the Racquet Club. “I’m sure Tyler and I will jab each other with some good trash talk as the season goes on, but I want him to be successful and I am sure he wants the same for me.” pbatterson@thisweeknews.com

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

Milestone 229: Come for the views, stay for the food The food could have totally been beside the point at Milestone 229. Born lucky in an expensively rehabbed neighborhood loaded with stunning things to gawk at, Milestone could have skated by on its good looks and its eye-candy setting: the people magnet that is the impressive new Scioto Mile development. Speaking of Scioto Mile, on one side of Milestone is a showpiece waterpark where highly stimulated kids run wildly through elaborately alternating spurts of water and adults stare in wonder. At night, the modern, sculptural, halo-like fountains ethereally produce fog, become a thrilling and hypnotic light show and are sometimes the watery screen for filmic projections. On the opposite side of Milestone are the most spectacular vistas of downtown Columbus visible from any eatery. Really, to sit on Milestone’s big, looping one-of-a-kind patio is to realize how sexy our city can be.
MENU by G. A. BENTON Cleverly, this restaurant — which is run by the Columbus Brewing Company folks — is constructed along swooping arcs that echo those halo-form fountains. Elliptical, expansive and roomy, Milestone 229 is a neat-looking, modernist metal-and-glass building. And its patio has clearly upped the ante on scenic outdoor eating in central Ohio. But Milestone is not just another pretty face. Because though its mob-attracting location would’ve ensured a captive audience even if it served awful food, Milestone’s gone the extra … er, mile and hired a real chef (Rigsby’s veteran Christian Hattemer) who’s fashioned an allAmerican, local- and fine-ingredientsourcing menu. While Milestone’s food is hardly daring, it is carefully prepared,

scratch-made stuff that aims for, and consistently hits, the familiar-disheswith-chef’s-flourishes target. The house cocktails ($9) follow a similar trajectory. Made with very good ingredients, none I tried were stinkers, but my favorite has been the perfectly named seasonal cooler called Summer Splash (Watershed gin, muddled cu-
cumber and fresh lime in refreshing harmony). Appetizers are presented with fun and verve. They range from a heavy but pleasing Skillet Mac ‘n Cheese ($7.25, huge, with a lively cheese blend, smoky bacon and toasted panko breadcrumbs served in a black skillet) to the mandatory Calamari (wittily spilling out of a Chinese takeout container) to a mayorich and abundantly red-peppered Pimento Cheese dip ($7.25) to a neat medley called Wine Quartet ($10.50, salty olives, seasoned nuts, a decent beet and orange salad, and the upstaging star of a salmon mousse). There are also handmade, hearty and rustic pizzas on thick, crispy crusts (like a salty and pungent gorgonzola and roasted mushroom, $12.50). Entree salads were solid, too, like the Wild Alaskan Salmon ($13.50), with wasabi peas, a gingery dressing and a thick miso/peanuttype sauce. Entree-wise, I tried a perfectly cooked,

OK steak (Grilled Barrel Cut Sirloin, $22) with a suave hoochy sauce, topnotch green beans plus a nifty multiplepotato hash, and a fresh-tasting and attractively plated Potato Crusted Great Lakes Walleye ($22) with a golden crispy spud shell, asparagus and creamed corn sauce. While both were good, Milestone’s giant sandwiches (all about $10) were equally satisfying, yet a lot cheaper — and they arrive with nice, crisp fries, either vinegar-tinged or of the sweet potato variety. My favorite sandwich was the standout, banh-mi-accented Tempura Battered fish. Also easily gulpable were the Three Little Pigs Porkout and a heavily herbed homemade bratwurst burger. Inevitable ending: Milestone 229 — come for the views, stay for the food.
Independent yogurt shop gives fresh spin to frozen confection Fans of a hot trend, Joey Chong and her family decided to play it cool. Not an easy thing to do in 90degree weather. Devotees of frozen yogurt, they wanted to open a store but were unimpressed with the inflexibility of national chains. So they went out on their own. On Saturday, on yet another sweltering day in central Ohio, they opened Matcha in the restaurant-diverse Bethel Centre. The independent store plays to the desires of the customer, Chong said. “I have been helping my fam-
ily and relatives with their restaurant business for many years and now I get to try a different food,” she said. “It’s dessert. When the idea of opening a frozen-yogurt store came up from the family, I was very excited because I already had frozen yogurt a few times in the East Coast and loved it so much.” Matcha, a type of Japanese green tea, offers 10 flavors a day, from the traditional — vanilla and chocolate — to the more exotic — pomegranate-raspberry, mango and, of course, matcha. The plan is to rotate the flavors

often to see what customers favor, she said. Comment cards will be provided at the store. Matcha is self-serve. Customers are given a 16-ounce cup and can fill it with as many flavors and toppings as they desire. The price is 44 cents an ounce. The real gems, she said, are the toppings, which total more than 40. Again, there are the typical options, such as nuts, granola and M&Ms, plus others that are more likely to be found in a bubble-tea store, including coconut jellies, mochi (ice cream wrapped in a soft, thin Japanese rice cake), sweetened red and green beans and popping boba (tapioca pearls filled with fruit juice). Fruit will always be fresh, never mushy, she promised. “When I travel, I always look for something different or try some local restaurants,” she said. “We will keep searching around for more unique foods and toppings to serve with yogurt.” Matcha is among a new wave of frozen-yogurt purveyors in central Ohio, which includes Orange Leaf, Red Mango, Josie’s and Cuzzins. Dean Small, founder and managing partner Synergy Restaurant Consultants near San Diego,
said the resurgence of frozen yogurt can be attributed to a couple of factors. For starters, it is perceived as a healthier option than ice cream. Also, people tend to migrate toward indulgences in a bad economy. “Comfort food always plays well,” he said. Small likes the build-your-own option being offered by Matcha and other frozen-yogurt places. “You’re putting the onus on them to create their own little masterpiece,” he said.
