City ends fight of eminent domain ruling

New school year calendar

Hours dedicated to state testing irks school board

By MARY POSANI THISWEEKNEWS.COM

By ANDREW KING THISWEEKNEWS.COM

Westerville officials announced Tuesday they will not appeal a court decision that will cost the city $1.3 million.

On Aug. 12, the Ohio 10th District Court of Appeals upheld a $1.3 million award to James Taylor, owner of the US Bank at 833 S. State St. for a portion of the property and attorney fees, after the city took a slice of Taylor’s land through eminent domain.

The space was used as part of the city’s $2.1 million gateway project, which required 0.205 acres of Taylor’s land to install an entryway feature at the city’s southern entrance.

A Franklin County judge approved the city’s taking of the land at State and Heatherdown Drive to bury utility lines and install decorative brick pillars and wrought-iron fencing.

The city offered $145,855 for the property. But Taylor appealed the judge’s decision, claiming visibility of the bank would be ruined and a curb cut could be eliminated, greatly harming the business.

A Franklin County Court of Common Pleas jury agreed with Taylor in 2013, awarding the $1.3 million, a decision that the Ohio 10th District Court of Appeals agreed with last month.

Westerville spokeswoman Christa Dickey said the city had spent about $120,000 on legal fees for the case through the appeals court decision.

Westerville City Manager Dave Collinsworth said in an email that city staff “made a

As the Westerville school district adjusts its calendar from days to hours, district leaders and Board of Education members are complaining about the volume of time spent on state testing.

Ohio law recently mandated the calendar change. Students will continue to spend an average of 180 days attending school each school year, but now the district will count class time by hours instead of days.

That means kindergartners will attend about 455 hours as part-time students, first- through sixth-grade students will attend about 910 hours, and sevenththrough 12th-graders will attend about 1,001 hours.

The Westerville Board of Education at its meeting Sept.

22 had the first reading of a corresponding district policy change, and the proposed 2015-16 calendar to adopt the changes.

Board members will wait 30 days until they vote to approve the calendar, likely at their meeting Oct. 27.

When the school board members and district leaders analyzed the changes, they noticed a lot of more hours are dedicated to state testing than previous years.

Teachers follow new curriculum guidelines outlined by Ohio’s New Learning Standards, including Common Core for math and English language arts this year and Ohio-grown curricula in sciences and social studies. The new curriculum also means new assessments.

Students will take Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers tests, or PARCC, to align with what is taught with Common Core.

These exams are the performance-based assessments and endof-year exams marked on the district’s assessment calendar.

Students will continue to take

the Ohio Achievement Assessments or Ohio Graduation Test as well. All these tests are mandated by the state.

Westerville Superintendent John Kellogg said the state’s new curriculum changes and implementations occurred in such a short time frame that teachers find it difficult to properly organize for the tests.

“We’re not giving our educators a fair chance to be wellprepared to take care of the kids,” he said. “As I talk to teachers, that’s their new fear. They say, ‘I just got my new book and I just got my new curriculum and now there’s an assessment?’ ” Last year, third-graders spent a total of 300 minutes, or 5 hours, on state tests for English language arts and math. Fourththrough eighth-graders spent a total of 450 minutes, or 7.5 hours, on state tests for English language arts, math, science and social studies.

In the high school, tests break down based on subject instead of grade level. Last year, students spent 600 minutes, or 10 hours on state tests for their respective English language arts, math, science, social studies or history courses.

This year, students will spend more time on tests to align with the curriculum changes.

In addition to the 5 hours of testing from previous years, thirdgraders will spend an additional 585 minutes, or 9 hours and 45

minutes, on performance-based assessments and end-of-year exams for English language arts and math. In total, third-graders will spend 14 hours and 45 minutes on state exams in those two subjects.

Third-graders will take the OAA English language arts exam this month so the district can see if they are meeting ThirdGrade Reading Guarantee benchmarks. If students do not score a 394 or higher on the exam, they will take the OAA again in the spring and be exempt from the performance-based assessments and end-of year-exams.

Fourth- through 12th-graders will spend more time than that.

Fourth- and fifth-graders will spend 20 hours on state tests for English language arts, math, social studies and science; and sixth- through eighth-graders will spend almost 21 hours on state exams for the same subjects.

This year, high school students will spend a little more than an additional 17 hours, totaling more than 27 hours for state-

dictated tests.

School board President Nancy Nestor-Baker said it is all too much.

“I’m not saying I don’t like tests; tests are necessary in their place. But I feel that we have gone way overboard in this state and I think our children are suffering from it and will continue to suffer from it,” she said.

She added she is concerned that teachers will be forced to teach to the tests and that tests won’t reflect students’ growth and knowledge.

Nestor-Baker isn’t alone with her dissatisfaction. Richard Bird, the newest Westerville board member, said he would like to see empirical data that shows the hours dedicated to testing directly related to student achievement.

“I have yet to find a single piece of evidence that would even suggest that the standardized test system in Ohio contributes one bit to academic performance,” Bird said.

In total, nearly 1-2 percent of total school hours are dedicated

to state testing. However, since most testing is completed in the spring, about 4-5 percent of second semester hours are spent on tests, varying by grade level and subject.

The district won’t receive any results for the newest exams until September. Kellogg said it is frustrating since he doesn’t know what changes will come from the tests or from the Ohio Department of Education.

“It’s hard to set academic goals for next year in the fog of change because the entire system is based on assessments that will be different next year,” he said. “How do I set benchmarks?”

Kellogg and board members said they have spoken and will continue to speak to state legislators about their concerns with the changes and implementations of testing.

“I do think we need to roll up our sleeves and be critics and push back, and engage our public,” Kellogg said. “I’m really pushing on these assessment pieces.”

ous?” and grabbed him around the throat and pushed him backward to the ground before slapping him in the face, police reports said.

Police obtained written statements from 42 players about the incident. Of the 42 accounts, only 21 said they were present during the confrontation.

Seven players said they saw Pentello push the student, but none of them said they saw anything else.

Officers also interviewed assistant coaches who said they were present during the confrontation.

One coach said he saw Pentello “lightly accost” the student in the face. When officers asked him to clarify, he said Pentello “got in his face” and was “noseto-nose” with the student. Other coaches said they were unable

to see what happened, police reported.

Pentello “will neither be coaching nor fulfilling his responsibilities as a social studies teacher at the school,” according to a statement released Sept. 22 by school district spokesman Greg Viebranz. “The leave is indefinite until an investigation into Mr. Pentello’s professional conduct, as it relates to his coaching responsibilities, is completed.

School officials are in the process of determining who will fulfill the team’s head coaching responsibilities until this matter is resolved.”

In 24 seasons, Pentello has led South to a 158-93 overall record, 10 OCC championships, Division I regional runner-up finishes in 1995 and 1998 and a state runner-up finish in 1994.

The Village at Central College

Teen charged with breaking into grandma’s Planners pan M/I’s

An 18-year-old Westerville resident was arrested for burglary and suspected of trafficking in drugs after a neighbor called police to report seeing him climb through a window into his grandmother’s house in the first block of Electric Avenue , Westerville police reported.

Derek M. Kull, 18, of Braxton Place West, was entering his grandmother’s home Sept.

24 during his lunch break from work, to smoke and sell marijuana when the neighbor saw him, police reports said.

The neighbor called police, who responded and reported

finding multiple people on the home’s porch, one of whom was in possession of marijuana.

When the officer went inside to talk to Kull, he found the 18-year-old’s backpack, which contained scales, rolling papers, baggies and a substance that looked and smelled like marijuana.

The officer called Kull’s grandmother, who said he did not have permission to be in the house. She asked to press charges.

Kull was charged with burglary and transported to the Franklin County jail. His suspected marijuana and parapher-

nalia were sent for testing.

In other recent incident reports from the Westerville Division of Police: • A 14-year-old girl told police she was assaulted by another girl outside a store in the 100 block of South State Street during the Fourth Friday street fair Sept. 26.

The girl approached an officer crying and showed him her face, which was already red and starting to swell. She told the officer the other girl had walked up to her and punched her “three to four times” in the face before they were separated.

An officer spoke to the victim’s aunt, who wished to press charges, and got witness statements from three other girls.

• A residence in the 1300 block of Hideaway Woods Drive was burglarized sometime Sept. 26.

When the homeowner returned from work, he found the door kicked in and found several belongings missing.

A television, three videogame consoles and jewelry were missing, among other items.

Police were able to lift prints from multiple surfaces in the home, but do not have any suspects.

proposed houses

By ANDREW KING THISWEEKNEWS.COM

For the second time in two months, members of the Westerville Planning Commission told representatives of M/I Homes that they are not satisfied with what the developer is proposing for a large housing project in the Central College area.

At their Sept. 24 meeting, the commission saw what would have been M/I’s final proposal for the single-family portion of proposed development The Village at Central College.

The 16.77-acre space was planned to contain 17 homes.

Commission members hoped it would be inspired by “traditional” architecture in the area’s history.

But when developers showed their plans to the commission, members weren’t pleased with what they saw.

Many had hoped M/I could implement an alley system to allow for rear-facing garages, while others emphasized a need for unique archi-

tecture and a tight-knit neighborhood feel for the development. Few thought that they saw any of those characteristics.

“This, to me, is evidence that an alley system was never looked at and never taken seriously,” committee member Brian Szuch said.

“I see no reason why an alley system couldn’t be used to get the architecture true to the area. ...We just keep whittling away at our standards until we get the same old thing.”

Collinsworth said the difference between the $145,855 offer and the $1.3 million settlement was simply due to a difference in appraisal values, and that the city had been prepared for the possibility all along. aking@thisweeknews.com

Just thinking

Wine: the 21st century answer to fondue fetes A party featuring painting and wine is an idea whose time has come. Or perhaps I should say it’s an idea whose time came several years ago – came, unpacked its bags and established residency, if what I see on the Internet is any indication.

And why not, because as ideas go, it’s brilliant. Who hasn’t settled down with a glass of wine and found herself gazing at the sleeping dog or at those trees over there and wished she could preserve the scene on canvas? ... Anyone?

All right, I haven’t either, but listen, if someone came by and handed me a brush, a palette and maybe a little more of that Chablis, I’d give it a whirl.

I wouldn’t expect much from my whirl. As an incorrigible eighth-grade doodler, I had two pictures: Fred Flintstone, who was to television then as Bryan Cranston is to television now, and a smiling tiger cub, who as my junior high school mascot was pictured everywhere – on the wall of the gymnasium, on the textbook covers sold at the school store, on the front of the yearbook.

The mascot was a cub because the high school mascot was a tiger, but it may as well have been prey, because as predators go, it was adorable: Big round ears, wide innocent eyes and a happy, practically toothless grin. It also was easy to draw. By early October, I’d drawn tiger cub heads all down the margins of my science notebook. No wonder I’m hazy on the topic of photosynthesis.

But about wine and painting parties. The woman who does things to my hair was doing the things the other day while discussing her experiences at such a party.

She had so much fun, she said, and was so pleased with the results that she bought her own supplies and starting painting pictures even when she wasn’t drinking wine.

To prove it, she put my hair on pause and showed me a couple of photos of her paintings.

They were good.

Why haven’t other artists had this idea, I wondered aloud. Musicians, for instance, would perform a valuable public service if they shared their instruments over a bottle of Pinot Grigio. Because most people are terrified of instruments they don’t know how to play. Or maybe just I am. Offer me a violin and I’ll back away, hands in the air, lest I accept the instrument and accidentally smash it over my knee.

I’ve always assumed I could shatter a violin merely by picking it up, probably because my musical instrument, if I have one, is the piano.

That is, I took MARGO piano lessons as a BARTLETT child and my childhood piano is now in my house. Therefore if I can claim an instrument, it’s one that weighs a million pounds and couldn’t possibly be carelessly dropped out the window.

Violins, on the other hand, are delicate and often priceless works of art. They are to pianos as killdeer babies are to bull elephants. Yet if a violinist prepared me with a glass of wine and then gently suggested I tuck this part here under my chin, I’m almost certain I’d go along.

Never mind that any sounds I might coax from the instrument would not resemble music. Music would not be my goal. My goal would be to look like a violinist without poking myself in the eye with the bow or splintering the fingerboard in my panicky grasp.

I could offer more orchestral examples: wine and French horns! Wine and cellos! Wine and timpani, which sounds vaguely familiar, like the title of a novel I read as a teenager. The Days of Wine and Timpani. Or maybe Breakfast at Timpani’s.

Perhaps I’ve had a little too much of that Chablis.

Anyway, why spend all our time with musical instruments and paintbrushes? As long as we’re opening a new bottle, let’s have a wine and jackhammer party. A wine and power washing party – it would be satisfying to raise a glass and clean the house at the same time. Wine and zamboni parties would be bracing, if I weren’t almost sure that wine should never be served over ice. Wine and welding parties – alliterative as well as educational.

But you know what? I think I should start small. After all, I’m the person who can’t draw fierce adult tigers, only small, babyfaced cubs. My first wine and something party will be nonthreatening and accessible. Wine and string-trimming, maybe.

Wine and purchasing airline tickets online.

After that – well, we’ll see.

As it were

Vice found home in city’s Badlands

I first encountered “The Badlands” in the company of Ben Hayes. Ben was a columnist for the old Columbus Citizen newspaper for many years. In our conversations, Ben pointed out to me that the vice district, such as it was in the conservative capital city of Ohio, tended to move about.

This began to make sense since I had found references to a “Badlands” at Third Street and Spring Street in the 1890s. Then there was another “Badlands” farther south along Seventh Street in the 1910s as well as a “Badlands” along the Scioto River.

First we should say a bit about how these areas came to be called “Badlands” in any case. Several places in the United States have come to be called a badlands because of their rugged terrain and desolate appearance.

Probably the most famous of these is the area called “mako sica” or “bad land” by the Sioux near the Black Hills of South Dakota. As early as 1852, American travelers in the region were calling the place a badlands where little of any value could be grown or found.

It was that lack of positive value that eventually led outraged residents to begin to refer to the vice districts of their cities as badlands as well – first in Chicago and then elsewhere around the country.

The most notorious of the places called the Badlands in Columbus centered on a few blocks east of High Street, bounded on the north by what is now Nationwide Boulevard and on the south

by Spring Street. Nationwide Boulevard – then called Naghten Street – was the commercial heart of the Irish neighborhood and was often called “Irish Broadway.”

The Badlands to the south was the home of saloons, cheap rooming houses, gambling dens, opium parlors and ladies of ill-repute.

I have written of this area in the past and of its colorful characters such as “Smoky” Hobbs. The Badlands on the near north side of downtown flowered in ED the years after the AmerLENTZ ican Civil War and served as an entry point for recent arrivals – black and white – from rural America as well as immigrants from many countries.

But by the turn of the 20th century, the area was an increasingly deteriorating slum which was in the process of being systematically removed by demolition and new construction. Downtown Columbus was growing and soon new high-rise office buildings would take the place of what locals called “sin dens.”

Local reformers, civic leaders and religious figures took some pride in the demise of the “Badlands” and entertained the hope that evil habits would disappear as the places that catered to them were removed.

It was a forlorn hope.

As long as people – in this case, mostly adult males – had an appetite for illicit activity, places would appear to meet those needs. Over the course of the first decade of the 20th century, a number of new vice districts emerged in Columbus.

This was an age when downtown Columbus was still the center of things and was linked to all parts of the city by an elaborate streetcar network. Downtown was where people came to shop, dine, worship and be entertained.

Most of these activities in what was then called the “Arch City” – for its elaborate electrified street lighting – were legal and legitimate.

Some were not.

Unlike the earlier Badlands, in which

one could find people of all races and social classes on a given night, vice became split by social and economic class in the new century. There were two distinct Badlands in the downtown Columbus of the 1910s and they had very little in common.

The first was along the river. The Scioto River had been a harbor for canal boats arriving in the city in the 1830s and a series of factories and warehouses had been built nearby.

In time, the factories moved away from the downtown as land prices rose.

The buildings along the river became a commercial district, and then a lowrent district and by 1910 a low-cost vice district.

It was an area civic leaders tried unsuccessfully to remove on several occasions. In the end, the 1913 flood solved the problem when flood control steps led to its removal.

A more upscale vice district was located on Seventh Street south of Main Street. Here one could find more exclusive gambling parlors and truly luxurious houses of ill repute. The most famous of them was the “Primo de Orient” owned and operated by the rather flamboyant Ms. Vinnie Gray.

Places like the “Primo” were quite successful until World War I, when the Army ordered all such places within a mile of an Army base – in this case Fort Hayes – to be closed.

With the destruction of these two vice districts and the increasing dispersion of people to the suburbs, civic leaders once again hoped that the war on vice was finally won.

It was not. But the new places had new names and the term badlands was not often heard.

Renew tax; our parks are worth it To the Editor: Westerville’s parks and the pathway system are like the backbone of our city. With a park within a short walk from nearly every household, everything seemingly revolves around our green spaces.

As I travel around our city, I see individuals utilizing these resources ... taking a leisurely stroll after dinner, walking a pet, biking for exercise or going to the store, taking pictures of nature, enjoying a nap on the grass, reading on a bench, playing baseball or soccer, and the list goes on and on.

Classic 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath colonial on oversized 2/3 acre lot w/2.5 car detached garage, 3 season room, covered patio, full finished basement.

Needs updated, but ‘’good bones’’ for the handyman buyer. Owner is licensed agent.

Each one of us has our own reason for going to a park or using the pathway system. Still others utilize the many programs available through the Parks and Recreation Department ... everything from exercise classes to children’s programs at the Community Center, to art opportunities at the Senior Center.

I encourage everyone to support and vote FOR the upcoming levy to RENEW our existing levy to ensure continued excellence in our parks and recreation resources.

Serving Central Ohio Since 1974

Clevela

Ohio’s fall color should be spectacular this year thanks to the cooler than average September temperatures and plentiful summer rainfall. Leaves are already showing bright oranges, yellows and reds in northern Ohio and in a few weeks Mother Nature will paint the trees with gorgeous autumn colors here in central Ohio.

The Ohio Department of Natural Resources reports peak fall color will occur within the week in the northern third of the state.

You can expect the peak color to move into central Ohio by the middle of the month. Southern Ohio’s peak color happens towards the end of October.

As summer ends and autumn begins, the days get shorter and shorter. These shorter days are a signal to the trees to get ready for winter.

During winter, there is not enough light or water for photosynthesis. The trees will rest and live off the food they stored during the summer. They begin to shut down their food-making factories and when this happens, the green chlorophyll disappears from the leaves.

When the green color fades away we begin to see orange, yellow, red and even purple colors. Surprisingly, small

Former Knights Inn demolished

City looks for new user of cleared hotel site

By ANDREW KING THISWEEKNEWS.COM The longtime Westerville eyesore known as the former Knights Inn property has been demolished.

In the building’s place at 32 Heatherdown Drive now sits a vacant lot, ready for the city to find a potential new business to help revitalize Westerville’s southern gateway.

“When it’s all said and done, this site will be ready to attract users,” Westerville Economic Development Administrator Jason Bechtold said. “We’ll be looking and doing some evaluations. But we hope this new user will be catalytic in nature for that corridor of the city.”

Westerville City Council approved the $300,000 purchase of the property at a special meeting Aug. 12 through

the Westerville Industry and Commerce Corp., the city’s economic development agency.

But to avoid paying for the demolition, the city partnered with the Central Ohio Community Improvement Corp., described as a “land reutilization agency” that helps communities acquire abandoned or dilapidated properties.

Thanks to COCIC, the city didn’t have to play a part in the demolition, which Bechtold called a “fairly basic” project.

“COCIC handled demolition from beginning to end in line with the grant program through the Ohio Attorney General’s Office,” Bechtold said.

To be eligible for the grant, demolition had to be completed by the end of September, which is why the city rushed to get it accomplished early in the

month. Bechtold said working with COCIC saved the city about $265,000.

From a development perspective, Bechtold said he’s pleased city staff were able to work with COCIC on the project.

“The city is definitely leveraging support to reposition the site,” he said. “It’s a regional collaboration with a partner in our community.”

But perhaps more importantly, the property that had become an eyesore no longer stands. And for saving costs of demolition, the nature of the building was actually a positive for the city.

“It was definitely distressed property,” Bechtold said. “And that’s what allowed us to work Demolition workers made quick work of clearing the former Westerville Knights Inn hotel property with COCIC.” at 32 Heatherdown Drive. The city bought the closed hotel Aug. 12 for the purpose of demolishing it and putting it on the market for private redevelopment. aking@thisweeknews.com

8 State Bistro

Valet parking raises Planning Commission concerns

By ANDREW KING THISWEEKNEWS.COM The proposed 8 State Bistro took its first step toward a plan for valet parking when the esterville Planning Commission approved a variance for the building’s parking restrictions.

Rezoning the property at 8 N. State St. to a restaurant rather than a retail location means the 3,627-square-foot space would require 37 available parking spots rather than 17.

But because of an agreement to provide valet parking at a nearby business for both employees and customers, the restaurant will be able to park

all of its employees in the lot, making up for the difference.

The variance came into play when city staff pointed out that – after eliminating a long hallway not usable for restaurant purposes – the building only has 2,821 square feet of usable space. Based on that number, the restaurant would only require 29 spots, saving the necessity for more required space.

Commissioners had no issues with the idea, and unanimously approved the variance.

But the meeting also gave the commission members a chance to voice opinions about the proposed valet service run

by ParkOps, which would request four spots in front of the building where patrons would drop off their cars and valets would move them to a parking lot on nearby College Avenue, which does not use its parking lot after 5 p.m.

Despite the idea of saving parking in crowded Uptown, commission members had plenty of concerns about bringing valet parking into the area.

“There is a whole can of worms that comes with opening this up to valet,” said Dave Samuelson, a commission member.

Many commission members said they saw nothing inherently wrong with the idea,

“You’re the first to ask for valet parking in Uptown. What are we going to do about the second, third, fourth time we’re asked? Will that take up another eight or 12 parking spots?”

– MIKE HEYECK

Planning Commission member and city councilman

but the uncertainty behind the first Uptown valet service is cause for concern.

“You’re the first to ask for valet parking in Uptown,” said Mike Heyeck, a commission member and council representative.

which will go through a further approval process after the city finishes its parking study.

But they were able to give the applicant an idea of what resistance they would see. And the majority of the commission members said they don’t think City Council would allow four public parking spots to be used by the restaurant.

“If someone is parked in those spaces, they’re visiting Uptown, too,” said Brian Szuch, a commission member.

“For us to start proportioning those spots ... I do have an issue with that, and would prefer those remain public spaces.”

“What are we going to do about the second, third, fourth time we’re asked? Will that take up another eight or 12 parking spots?”

Planning commission members said they had no ability to decide the parking issue, aking@thisweeknews.com

Specialists say rehab hard, but not hopeless Relapse rates for first-time patients as high as 90 percent

By GARY SEMAN JR. THISWEEKNEWS.COM Dr. Steven Matson has seen the destruction firsthand: a parade of teenagers walking through the doors of Nationwide Children’s Hospital, seeking treatment for drug abuse.

Matson is interim chief of adolescent medicine and director of the hospital’s Medication Assisted Treatment for Addiction program. MATA treats children and young adults ages 12 to 21 on an outpatient basis. About 15 percent of patients are between 12 and 17 and the remainder are 18 to 21.

Matson said the program has 50 to 60 patients at a given time and has treated a total of 650 to 700 since 2009.

When Matson started at Nationwide Children’s in 2008, about 80 percent of patients being treated for drug abuse were from outlying counties. Now, half come from Franklin County.

Although it might sound like a cliche, Matson said marijuana is a gateway drug, serving as a portal for kids seeking stronger highs.

Many start raiding their family’s medicine cabinets for more potent prescription medication, such as Oxycontin, oxycodone, alprazolam, codeine and Dilaudid. If they’re not taking it, they’re selling it, often to classmates.

When the body builds up a tolerance and the high is harder to come by – and prescription drugs get too expensive – teens turn to heroin, which is relatively cheap and easy to obtain, Matson said.

Many start out smoking or snorting the drug and then move on to inject-

“If the patient is engaged and follows the medical advice we give him or her, their success rate is very good.” ing it, which delivers the highest dose in the quickest amount of time.

Some addicts are injecting eight to 15 times a day, Matson said.

For treatment, many doctors are prescribing buprenorphine, which is part of a class of medications called opioid agonist-antagonists, designed to prevent withdrawal symptoms. One benefit to such medicines is they allow for outpatient treatment. A formerly popular treatment was methadone, but it requires daily on-site injections at a medical facility and still produces a euphoric effect.

“There’s still a lot of debate” regarding the use of buprenorphine, Matson said. “Most of us feel it’s not treatment itself but it makes people feel normal enough to get the treatment they need.

“Heroin’s a pretty tough disease,” he said. “Not many drugs really make you so dependent on it to function normally. I think it’s one of the tougher addictions to treat. And the outcomes are pretty dismal.”

Matson said 80 to 90 percent who try to detox for the first time relapse.

MATA loses many patients after two or three visits. By two months, only 45 percent are still enrolled. After six months, that number sinks to 20 percent.

He attributes some of that drop-off

– PAUL H. COLEMAN

president and CEO of Maryhaven

to hardships placed on the patient, such as lack of transportation and support at home, lack of money to pay for behavioral treatment, a shortage of sober living placements and an environment where drug abuse still exists, making it difficult to abstain.

‘It’s not hopeless’

The picture is similar at Maryhaven, where of the 1,500 to 1,700 adolescents in inpatient and outpatient treatment, 5 percent are addicted to opiates and 2 percent are hooked on heroin, said Paul H. Coleman, president and CEO of the treatment facility.

Columbus-based Maryhaven treats adolescents and adults who have addiction issues and/or mental illness.

“A majority of our patients start using prescription drugs,” Coleman said. “Those who use heroin almost always get started with prescription drugs.”

Yet, for those who complete the entire course of treatment, the failure rate is 20 percent.

“If the patient is engaged and follows the medical advice we give him or her, their success rate is very good,” he said.

An inpatient stay can be as long as

three months, Coleman said.

Coleman doesn’t see a bright spot in the near future.

“It’s a growing problem, and I think it will be getting worse because there is an oversupply of heroin and opiates in the United States,” he said.

Matson is quick to debunk a widely held belief that many “normal” kids get caught in the cycle of addiction.

More than half of patients are diagnosed with a clear psychological disorder.

“A lot of them are pretty depressed or anxious,” he said. “We try to get them clean for about a month before we start treating their mental-health issues.

“It’s not unheard of that an all-star kid gets in the wrong place with the wrong crowd and gets addicted. But usually it’s more of a lifetime of bad breaks or not having the most supportive family and having mental illness.”

Matson said drug addicts have been stigmatized as weak or undisciplined.

He said it’s a chronic disease that needs understanding.

“It’s not hopeless,” he said. “The

message we want to get out there is, it’s a nasty disease but it’s not hopeless. It’s possible to get better but it’s got to come from the patient.”

Warning signs Signs and symptoms of addictive illness in adolescents: • Changes in friends.

• Changes in performance at school, in the classroom or in extracurricular activities.

• Changes in relationships with adults, particularly becoming secretive or withdrawn.

• Discovery of missing prescription drugs from the adolescent’s home or homes he or she has visited.

• Discovery of drugs or drug paraphernalia.

Parents who notice such behavior changes should seek immediate advice from a family physician, another health-care professional, member of the clergy or an addiction services provider.

Spike in heroin deaths prompts state call to action

By JENNIFER NOBLIT THISWEEKNEWS.COM

When the number of deaths caused by heroin overdoses in Ohio jumped 60 percent from 2011 to 2012, people took notice.

According to statistics from the Ohio Department of Health, 680 people died of a heroin overdose in the state in 2012 – up from 426 in 2011. Many times that number suffer overdoses but survive.

“It’s the worst drug epidemic I’ve ever seen,” said Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine. “I started out as a county prosecutor in the 1970s, so I’ve been at this for a long time. What’s different about this epidemic is it’s as likely to be seen in the suburbs as in the cities.”

In an opinion column last week, U.S. Sen. Rob Portman said more than 19,000 Ohioans are expected to suffer a drug overdose in 2014, and fatal heroin overdose this year is projected to become the No. 1 cause of accidental death in Ohio, surpassing traffic accidents.

“It’s across the state of Ohio,” DeWine said. “It cuts across every economic group, every racial group. We find it everywhere. It’s cheap.”

According to DeWine, Mexican drug cartels have a

network to distribute the drug across Ohio, and it’s reflected in police reports and deaths.

“We did a survey a few months ago on heroin deaths in each county,” DeWine said.

“Many people who die have other drugs in their system so it’s hard to get numbers, but what is clear is that in the last five years heroin deaths have gone up and gone up dramatically. They continue to go up in 2014.”

Franklin County saw 39 deaths attributed solely to heroin overdose between July 31, 2013 and July 31, 2014, according to Franklin County Coroner Jan Gorniak. An additional 59 overdose deaths were reported in the county from a mixture of heroin and other drugs.

The Delaware County Coroner’s Office reported five overdose deaths in the same time period; one was from heroin alone and the other four were a mixture of drugs including heroin.

The statewide spike in heroin overdoses spurred state officials into action.

“I created a new heroin unit in my office,” DeWine said.

“That heroin unit assists local law enforcement agencies and gives them access to more sophisticated equipment and techniques.”

House Bill 508, under consideration by the state legislature, would increase criminal penalties for anyone who sells a controlled substance that leads to an overdose death.

Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine speaks at a June 13 community forum on heroin at Harrison College in Grove City. His state task force is encouraging communities to start grassroots efforts to stop the heroin epidemic.

Other efforts are going on outside of enforcement. Gov. John Kasich launched “Start Talking!” an educational prevention effort aimed at children, this year.

A heroin task force of law enforcement officials, educators and community members across the state is emphasizing education.

“We are encouraging every local community to establish its own grassroots effort to educate and prevent people from becoming addicted and starting on heroin,” DeWine said.

“We have three individuals on

staff whose job it is to work with local communities and service groups and help them develop a local effort.”

For people already addicted to heroin, Kasich signed a law in March allowing police officers to carry naloxone, a drug that counteracts the effects of an opiate overdose.

DeWine’s office offers free training on how to use the drug.

A survey of central Ohio police departments found few carry naloxone and instead depend on EMS services.

Bexley, Delaware and Grove City police said they are

researching naloxone and likely will eventually carry it.

In Lucas County, DeWine launched a program in August to help with addiction.

Funded by a $650,000 grant from DeWine’s office, the pilot program will offer assistance and referrals to those who survive a heroin overdose and recovery housing after addiction treatment is completed.

If the pilot program is successful, DeWine plans to expand into other counties.

“We’ve got a huge problem in the state and we need to do what has to be done,” he said.

with Tyler.

“Ryan was angry a lot of the time – angry at Tyler and angry at us during his senior year. It was supposed to be his turn,” Campbell said.

Ryan, 21, graduated from Pickerington High School North in 2012 and is serving in the U.S. Air Force.

The Campbells also have a 16-year-old son, Alex, who is a junior at Pickerington North.

Alex, as Ryan and Tyler did, plays football for the Panthers.

Four years prior to his death, Tyler graduated from Pickerington North and accepted a scholarship to play football at the University of Akron.

It was there, Campbell believes, that a football-related injury and a prescription for Vicodin started Tyler down the path to heroin addiction.

By fall 2009, Campbell said his son’s grades were falling and despite being on scholarship, Tyler seldom had money.

His level of play and attitude were also changing, Campbell said.

“Something wasn’t quite right, but drugs were the last thing I was thinking.”

Tyler told his father he had spent his money on HGH, a growth hormone.

Campbell said when he realized Tyler was addicted to prescription painkillers, he enrolled him in December 2009 in an outpatient treatment program at Talbot Hall at Ohio State University.

Tyler returned to Akron in early 2010, but the coaching staff told Campbell that Tyler was not performing well during spring training.

Campbell re-enrolled him at Talbot Hall after which he returned home, Campbell said.

“We lived on pins and needles.”

A sense of foreboding struck Christy Campbell.

“But I didn’t think like her.

(Tyler’s addiction) was just a bump in the road. This wasn’t supposed to happen in our house,” Campbell said.

Downward spiral

Tyler’s addiction created stress in his parents’ marriage, Campbell said, as each spouse approached Tyler’s problem differently.

“I tried to discipline it out of him, I tried to scare it out of him, I tried to threaten it out of him. ... My wife was afraid for him and coddled him ... but I think we were both wrong,” Campbell said.

“We were always at odds (about Tyler) and it made the house like a time bomb. We just didn’t know how to deal with his addiction.”

In fall 2010, Tyler lost his scholarship at Akron.

“That rocked his world,” Campbell recalled.

After a failed attempt to make the team at West Liberty University near Wheeling, W.Va., Tyler suffered a relapse.

His former coach from

Akron invited him to try out at the University of Colorado.

However, under NCAA rules he would have had to sit out a year to be eligible to play so he opted against it.

Campbell is convinced this is when an acquaintance introduced his son, who was suffering from another setback and acute depression, to heroin.

“A lot of people think (heroin addiction) is a choice, but it’s not,” said Campbell, who believes some people are “pre-wired” to become addicted to substances or behaviors.

Early in 2011, Campbell said the family learned of Tyler’s heroin abuse after discovering paraphernalia in the house.

“It scared the hell out of me. ... I began to see my wife’s side,” said Campbell, who took Tyler to an inpatient clinic in suburban Cleveland.

However, Tyler had to leave after 30 days because the family’s insurance wouldn’t cover a longer stay.

“We knew he wasn’t ready; Tyler said he wasn’t ready,” Campbell said.

Tyler was released from the clinic July 21, 2011.

Christy picked up Tyler and they stopped at Wayne’s sister’s farm near Mount Vernon.

“We talked about an hour that night and Tyler said he was done with football. ... I invited him to help me coach (at Westerville Central High School),” Campbell said.

The family went to bed.

“I thought everything was going to be OK.” Campbell said Tyler’s door was locked when he left the following morning, but he chalked it up to his adult son craving privacy.

About an hour later, he got a call no parent should ever receive: Tyler had overdosed in his bedroom overnight.

“I didn’t understand. I said I was coming home and I’d fix

when he stole from her.

Still, she knew she had to take a stand.

“I would find a needle in his room (and) he’d say it was an old needle ... but I tore his room apart (after he was in California), so I knew there were no old needles.

“I tried tough love, I tried threats. I couldn’t just put him in the street ... but he understood what I was saying and he agreed to get help again,” Pinkerton said.

Earlier this year, Pinkerton found TAM of Ohio online and discovered a network of other mothers for support.

Brenda Stewart of Columbus is the support coordinator for TAM of Ohio. Stewart, who lives in the Worthington school district, founded the chapter to find support as she dealt with two adults sons with addiction In an October 2006 football game between Pickerington North and Central Crossing, Tyler issues.

Fingers will do more walking in 740 area code next year Residents who use 740 area code will have to dial all 10 digits when new 220 code arrives in March

By THOMAS GALLICK THISWEEKNEWS.COM Officials want Ohioans who live and work in the region served by the 740 area code to update their dialing habits ahead of a new area code’s debut.

Matt Schilling, spokesman

Maria Bloom

Sometimes, it’s ALL about THE REWARDS!

for the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio, said available 740 numbers are expected to run out “sometime in the second quarter of 2015.” Around the same time, numbers beginning with the 220 area code will start appearing in the area.

The 740 area code covers southeastern Ohio, along with the majority of counties bordering Franklin County.

Beginning March 21, residents within the area served by the 740 area code must dial all 10 digits – including the area code – instead of

seven to complete a local call.

Schilling said it’s impossible to know exactly when the 740 numbers would run out.

“We just assign a date near about when those numbers will exhaust,” he said.

Schilling said PUCO has advised residents to start dialing all 10 digits for calls starting Sept. 20 in an effort to prepare for the coming change. Callers who forget to dial the full 10 digits still will be connected until March 21.

“When March 21 comes around, it will be second nature,” Schilling said of 10digit dialing.

PUCO also advised residents to make sure numbers stored in phones, fax

mission’s liking.

“I know this is not the first time M/I has heard ‘brick’ from this commission,” commission member Amy Koorn said. “But I look at these renderings and I just see a lot of siding.”

M/I representatives showed their Windsor development in New Albany as an example of what they wanted to bring to the development. But commissioners said the photos they saw from Windsor – none of which had front-loading garages – weren’t even comparable to the Central College development.

“If the whole development is vinyl siding, you know what my vote will be,” commission member and council representative Mike Heyeck said. “I’m trying to find a midway point.”

To avoid a vote on the proposal, city staff and an M/I representative requested that a vote be tabled until the developer could return with a new proposal. The commission agreed unanimously.

Immunization clinic set up for children

credit-card readers and security systems.

The act of creating a new area code and letting existing numbers keep their 740 prefix is known as an overlay.

PUCO has implemented an overlay twice before in the state. Northwestern Ohio and a section of northeastern Ohio, including Akron and Youngstown, both were assigned a second area code in the early 2000s.

Overlays for the Cincinnati and Columbus areas also were planned in the early

2000s but were put on hold as numbers in the areas were depleted less quickly than expected.

The overlay is not the only option for adding new phone numbers to a geographical area.

“The other option would be to split – to literally draw a line at some point through the area code,” he said.

Under that option, some customers who had numbers with the 740 prefix would have been issued new phone numbers depending on what side of the split they fell on.

Schilling said public opinion was “overwhelmingly”

in favor of the overlay because it allowed existing customers to keep their numbers.

PUCO approved the overlay plan in December 2013 after taking public comment on the two possible solutions.

According to PUCO, 70 percent of the almost 1,000 residents who responded stated a preference for the overlay.

Schilling said the implementation of overlays had caused no major problems in northeastern and northwestern Ohio.

The supply of 220 numbers is not expected to be exhausted until 2064.

Franklin County Public Health will offer childhood immunizations by appointment only at a clinic set for 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Oct. 27, at the Westerville Division of Fire, 400 W. Main St. Required immunizations are available at $15 per shot to children 1 month to 18 years

old. To schedule an appointment, call 614-525-3719 or visit myfcph.org.

Cash, checks, Medicaid, CareSource or Molina will be accepted. No one will be turned away due to inability to pay.

Participants should bring an insurance card, photo identi-

fication and their child’s shot record. A completed consent form is required if a parent or legal guardian is not present at the clinic.

For more information, visit myfcph.org or contact Franklin County Public Health at 614525-3719 or shots@franklincountyohio.gov.

South boys making run with Morais

North looking for first OCC win

By DAVE PURPURA THISWEEKSPORTS.COM

By FRANK DiRENNA THISWEEKSPORTS.COM

Despite his Westerville North High School football team losing 27-6 to Dublin Scioto on Sept. 26, coach Rodger Elander raved about his defense’s performance.

“I loved the effort and intensity. We laid some huge hits on them,” Elander said, singling out the performances of defensive backs Central, Anthony D’Andrea and Mason South Gresh, linebacker previews, Jake Hinz and page B2 lineman A.K. Mensah. “They were hard-nosed, and I like to think we forced Scioto to do some things they might not have wanted to do.”

North hopes to have another strong effort and limit its turnovers Friday, Oct. 3, at home against Dublin Jerome.

Both teams are 1-4 overall and 0-2 in the OCC-Cardinal Division.

The Warriors lost three fumbles and had an interception against Scioto, which scored on its first two drives to take a 13-0 lead. North then held the Irish scoreless into the fourth quarter, pulling to within 13-7 on Jake Downs’ 4-yard touchdown pass to Daequan Hughes with 6 minutes, 54 seconds to play.

Hinz had 14 tackles and D’Andrea made his team-leading fourth interception.

Scioto tacked on two touchdowns in a 57-second span later in the fourth to seal the win.

Jerome, whose lone win was 17-16 over Pickerington

When Aaron Linden took over the Westerville South High School boys soccer program in 2011, Luke Morais was a promising freshman.

Now, Linden is hoping the forward can close out his career by helping the Wildcats advance far into the postseason.

South was 9-3 overall and 3-2 in the OCC-Cardinal Division before playing Dublin Jerome on Sept. 30.

“We don’t have a ton of seniors,” Linden said. “For me, it’s special because I came in with Luke and he was my only freshman that played varsity.

He’s my first player that spent all four years with me. Luke and I have a great relationship.

We’re very close. I’m close with all my kids, but it’s a special bond when you’re with somebody four years. We want to do this not only for Luke, but all the seniors.”

Entering the week, Jerome and Canal Winchester were tied for first in the league at 40-1, followed by Westerville

South’s Emmanuel Sabbi (11) battles for the ball with Abdi Mohamed of Central during a 3-2 loss to the host Warhawks on Sept. 23. The loss broke a seven-game winning streak for the Wildcats, who were 9-3 overall before playing Dublin Jerome on Sept. 30. PAUL VERNON/THISWEEKSPORTS

Central at 4-1 and South.

South saw a seven-game winning streak come to an end in a 3-2 loss at Central on Sept.

23. Brennan Lawrence and Emmanuel Sabbi, a transfer from Gahanna Christian, scored for the Wildcats.

“We just had a letdown,” Linden said. “(Central) coach (Dave) Pence coached a great game. They had a great game plan to defend our offense. I think our offense is one of the better ones around. We can score goals. Our defense is playing really well. They outplayed (us), they outworked us and they stepped up.”

South bounced back to defeat visiting Pickerington North 3-1 on Sept. 25. Morais, Suresh Bhattarai and Brandon Frank scored and Sabbi had two assists.

Before playing Jerome, Morais led the team in scoring with 12 goals and 10 assists.

The Wildcats have been boosted by the addition of Sabbi, who played his first game for South on Sept. 18,

Wells brings home medals for Team USA

By FRANK DiRENNA THISWEEKSPORTS.COM

Former Westerville Central High School bowling standout Mary Wells added another destination to her worldwide travel experiences when she competed in the World Youth Championships for Junior Team USA from Aug. 6-15 in Hong Kong.

WARRIORS >> B3 “I’m very fortunate for the places

I’ve been and the people I’ve met through Team USA bowling,” said Wells, a 2012 Central graduate. “I’m very thankful for all of it.”

With 46 countries competing, Wells averaged 203.18 over 32 games and finished with three top-five finishes.

She won a silver medal in all-events play with a 3,777, finishing behind Japan’s Shion Izumune (3,836).

Wells’ team won a bronze, finish-

ing behind champion Japan and Sweden. During qualifying, the USA team was second (4,862) behind Japan (4,874).

Wells was fifth in masters with a 6,391 and finished 16th (1,199) of 96 bowlers during qualification in singles play. The top four advanced to the semifinals.

Also, Wells and partner Stephanie Schwartz finished 16th (2,302) of 46

teams in doubles.

Last year, Wells competed in the junior world event in Puerto Rico, winning gold in team and doubles play.

“This year’s tournament had a lot more people, a lot more countries in it,” Wells said. “The talent level was a lot higher and I’m very happy with the way that I finished and the team

Girls Golf

Local teams square off prior to sectional

By JARROD ULREY THISWEEKSPORTS.COM

Before beginning the postseason, the high school girls golf programs in Hilliard, Olentangy and Westerville competed in events against their respective sister schools.

According to Olentangy coach John Feasel, his team, Liberty and Orange competed Sept. 15 at Oakhaven in what was “more like a fun day with scrambles” where team scores were not recorded.

During the four-round OCC-Cardinal Division tournament, Liberty went 19-5 to finish behind Dublin Jerome (24-0) and ahead of Olentangy (16-8) while Orange was sixth (4-20).

Liberty has been led by Sidney Kadlic, Priyasha Kota and Liv Dunning. “(We) have had a decent season,”

Patriots coach Kaiya Wheat said.

“Junior Reilly Haas has improved each of her rounds. My two freshmen, Sidney Kadlic and Priyasha Kota, have been steady all season.”

The Division I postseason began Sept. 30 with sectional tournaments at Mentel Memorial, Royal American and Westchester.

The top three teams and top three individuals not on qualifying teams at each site advanced to district Tuesday, Oct. 7, at The Links at Groveport. The top two teams and top two individuals not on qualifying teams at district will advance to state Oct. 17 and 18 at Ohio State’s Gray Course.

Top-seeded and three-time defending state champion Dublin Jerome was joined at Mentel Memorial by Marysville (5), Liberty (6), Hilliard Davidson (12), Watterson (13), Hilliard Bradley (14), New

Albany (16) and Watkins Memorial (19) as well as by Hartley’s Salmika Wairegi.

Second-seeded Dublin Coffman was joined at Royal American by Canal Winchester (9), Westerville South (10) and Olentangy (11). Others at the site included Westerville Central (17), Grove City (18), DeSales (21), Delaware (29), Westerville North (30), Dublin Scioto (31) and Reynoldsburg’s Caitlyn Tasney.

Third-seeded Pickerington North headlined the field at Westchester, where Worthington Kilbourne (4), Upper Arlington (7) and Gahanna (8) also competed. Others at the site included Granville (15), Orange (23), Pickerington Central (24), Thomas Worthington (25) and Hilliard Darby (28).

On Sept. 27, Coffman shot 300 to win the 17-team Marysville Invita-

Last season, Bradley finished third tional at Darby Creek as the Shamrocks' Lexie Long was medalist with in the Westchester sectional to advance a 70. Medina Highland was second to district for the second consecutive (316) and Pickerington North (333), season.

Wildcats look to extend win streak against Irish ByAARON BLANKENSHIP THISWEEKSPORTS.COM

Quarterback Nathan Densel of the Dublin Scioto High School football team anticipates Westerville South will try to rattle him with a variety of blitz packages when the teams meet in an OCC-Cardinal Division game Friday, Oct. 3, at Scioto.

The Irish are 3-2 overall and 1-1 in the OCC-Cardinal after beating Westerville North on Sept. 26. The Wildcats, who are riding a four-game winning streak, beat Hilliard Bradley 38-7 that same night to improve to 4-1 and 2-0.

“Westerville South is a team that will blitz every single down, so it’s important that we identify where they’re coming from,” Densel said. “I like to pass to the part of the field

WILDCATS >> B3

Hilliard Bradley High School football coach Mike LoParo expects another major test when his team travels to unbeaten Westerville Central on Friday, Oct. 3, for an OCCCardinal Division contest.

The Jaguars lost to Westerville South 38-7 on Sept. 26 to drop to 3-2 overall and 11 in the OCC-Cardinal. That same night, the Warhawks defeated Canal Winchester 4414 to improve to 5-0 and 2-0. “(The Warhawks) are very well-coached and have tremendous athletes,” LoParo said. “Their linemen have done a great job of protecting and run-blocking. An offense can do anything that it wants when it can get the job done up front. It will be challenging to contain all that they can do.”

The Warhawks are averaging 36.6 points per game while allowing 16.0 per contest.

“We have some speed and try to take advantage of it,” sixth-year Central coach John Magistro said. “We have big offensive and defensive lines — the biggest lines we’ve had since I have been here. When we’re clicking, we have the makings of a very good football team.”

Quarterback Nate Jackowski has completed 46 of 69 passes for 807 yards with six touchdowns and three interceptions and has rushed for two scores. Running back Benny Snell has 653 yards rushing and nine touchdowns on 82 carries and has nine receptions for 243 yards and two scores. Wide receiver Cedric Frierson has 14 catches for 360 yards and five scores.

Central amassed 499 total

Nate Traini and the Warhawks will look to remain unbeaten when they play host to Hilliard Bradley on Friday, Oct. 3.

a touchdown. Christian Rice and Nick Connor each added a touchdown run.

“We have a lot of power and a lot of playmakers,” Densel said. “We have receivers, like Justin Schafer, who will catch anything that’s thrown their way. We do need to improve our running game, though, because I have more rushing yards than any of our running backs.”

South’s 4-3 stack defense has given up only one touchdown in each of the past three games.

“Our defensive foundation was built in training camp and over the first three weeks of the season and now our guys are playing with confidence and are unleashing their speed and abilities,” said Wildcats defensive coordinator Tim Bates, who is serving as South’s acting coach while Rocky Pentello is on paid administrative leave after being arrested for an alleged altercation with a player on the team.

“We’re fast and we’re getting more and more physical with each new game.”

South forced three turnovers, including fumble recoveries by defensive lineman T.J. Blakely and linebacker Jeremiah Byrd, and allowed only 190 total yards against Bradley, which fell to 3-2 and 1-1.

South’s spread offense has scored four or more touchdowns in each of the past four games.

Against Bradley, running back Devan Wade rushed for

180 yards and two touchdowns on 22 carries and quarterback Lincoln Flood was 13-for-21 passing for 199 yards and three touchdowns. On the receiving end of the touchdown passes were Jaelen Gill (56 yards), Abu Daramy (34 yards) and Charles Thigpen (9 yards).

South did not have any turnovers against Bradley, marking the first game this season in which the Wildcats didn't have at least one turnover.

“Offensively, you’ve got to hand it to our offensive line, because once they got in position, they were able to hold their blocks,” Bates said.

“When Lincoln needed to make a pass and saw a defensive back out of position, he was able to

throw for touchdowns.

“Lincoln is becoming more and more of a game-manager and his play had a lot to do with us having no turnovers (at Bradley).”

Scioto’s 4-4 defense allowed 276 total yards against North, but forced four turnovers.

“Our defense is playing well, but it’s going to need to step up big against South because they have a lot of speed,” Densel said. “Brennen Sawicki played defensive end last week after he typically plays nose guard or defensive tackle.

Brennen lives and breathes in the weight room and he’s been a force to be reckoned with.” ablankenship@thisweeknews.com

Wells is preparing for her junior season as a member of the University of Central Missouri women’s bowling team. She continues to impress coach Ron Holmes.

“In watching her performance and speaking to her after the event, you could tell she really enjoys that setting and thrives on competing against other elite players,” Holmes said. “She had a great week in Hong Kong and performed very well in each event. I believe Mary’s experience this summer will only benefit her contributions for our program and her own

future.”

During her trip to Hong Kong, Wells participated in fundraising efforts for Special Olympics and underprivileged children.

Accompanied by her mother, Julie, she also was able to sightsee, visiting historic sites like Victoria Peak and the Big Buddha statue.

Julie Wells is the bowling coach at Central.

“Just walking around the city is pretty interesting because the way they live is totally different than we live here,” Mary Wells said.

Wells will begin qualifying in January for the 2015 world junior event, which will be held in Panama. It will be her final year of eligibility for the event.

Central Missouri began practice Oct. 1, with the season scheduled to begin Oct. 19.

The Jennies have qualified for the NCAA championships in Wells’ two seasons with the team. Last season, the Jennies placed seventh overall with Wells earning AllAmerican recognition for the second consecutive year, as she was named to the third team.

“It makes me very proud when one of our student-athletes gets to compete at the international level and Mary has done a phenomenal job with her opportunities,” said Holmes, who last season was named Division II/III Coach of the Year. fdirenna@thisweeknews.com

The Jaguars lost three fumbles against South, which did not have any turnovers.

“On offense, we need to stay on schedule and possess the football,” LoParo said. “Turn-overs have been an issue in both of our losses. Defensively, we have to focus on tackling and playing our responsibilities.”

On the season, Haywood has rushed for 735 yards and eight touchdowns on 115 carries and Anderson has 325 yards and five touchdowns on 28 carries.

The Jaguars trailed South 17-0 at halftime and allowed 21 fourth-quarter points by the Wildcats.

“We are playing inconsistent football right now,” said LoParo, whose team is averaging 25.6 points and giving up 17.8 per contest. “We have to get back to basics in all three phases of the game.”

NEUROPATHY

Nerve Disorder Causes Pain and Numbness for Millions of Americans

GET RID OF IRRITATING NUMBNESS AND PAIN IN YOUR LEGS AND FEET WITH FDA-CLEARED TREATMENT

HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOU HAVE PERIPHERAL NERVE DAMAGE?

There are over 100 different kinds of peripheral nerve disorders or neuropathies. Some are the results of a disease like diabetes while others can be triggered by a virus infection. Still others are the result of an injury or compression on the nerves.

No matter where the problems begin, it is imperative nerve disorders are resolved as soon as possible to prevent permanent damage.

The following symptoms may start gradually and then get worse: • Numbness • Pain when you walk

• Sharp electrical-like pain • Muscle weakness • Sensitivity to touch • Burning or tingling

If you suffer from any of these symptoms, call us today! We can help.

NEW FDA-CLEARED TREATMENTS PROVIDE HOPE

Many people suffer with pain for years, not realizing that their symptoms may be due to Peripheral Neuropathy.

Last season, Sabbi led Division III Gahanna Christian in scoring with 35 goals and 15 assists. He was first-team alldistrict and all-MOCAL and second-team all-state.

“There’s a big difference (playing) in Division I,” Sabbi said. “It’s more physical play.

“We still have problems that we need to fix, but as soon as we get those fixed, I don’t think we can lose.”

Linden is hoping his team can better that effort this season.
