Matthew Little (left), seated next to Chief Probation Officer Byron Fairclough, waits for bond to be set by Carroll County Common Pleas Court Judge Michael Repella II Thursday, Sept. 5. Little is facing 15 charges, including three counts of involuntary manslaughter, in the death of 14-year-old Jonathan Minard.

Carroll County Sheriff Dale Williams and Carroll County Prosecutor Steve Barnett announced the arrest of Matthew H. Little for the death of 14 year old Jonathan Minard during a press conference Sept. 4.

Barnett began the conference by stating that a grand jury had issued a secret indictment for Matthew Herbert Little, 30. A secret indictment is “one that is not made public until it is served,” according to Barnett.

There were 15 counts charged against Little by the grand jury.

Little is charged with three counts of involuntary manslaughter. These are all first degree felonies. He is charged with two counts of corrupting another with drugs. He is charged with a fourth count of involuntary manslaughter, permitting drug abuse, endangering children, permitting drug abuse, reckless homicide, tampering with evidence, corrupting another with drugs,

possession of heroin, gross abuse of a corpse, falsification, and failure to report the knowledge of a death.

“It is inappropriate for me to make any comments because he is innocent until proven guilty,” said Barnett.

Barnett did explain that the charges are a result of Little providing the drug Fentanyl to the 14-year-old Minard.

The grand jury agreed that Little should be charged with tampering with evidence by concealing the body of Minard and disposing of the body.

Little’s vehicle was seized due to its use during a felony.

The three felony counts can bring 3 to 11 years each; second degree felonies can bring 2 to 8 years each, third degree felonies can bring 9 months to 36 months, fourth degree felonies can bring 6 to 18 months, fifth degree felonies can bring 6 to 12 months and the misdemeanor charge can bring six months in jail, according to Barnett.

Johnson volunteers on Carroll County library’s bookmobile U.S. Congressman Bill Johnson spent some time Sept. 4 checking out Carroll County District Library’s bookmobile.

Johnson joined bookmobile driver and librarian David Garrett (seen second from right) as the bookmobile made its first stop at Carroll Hills Industries on 1182 Roswell Road, just east of Carrollton. Johnson greeted the clients and assisted them as selected books and videos.

Johnson (at right) checks out Marie Dehmart’s (second from left) book on Scottish cats, a shout-out to her native Scotland, while Linda Palmer (left) waits her turn with an armload of books about states.

Carroll Hills Industries Chief Executive Officer Edgar Bar-

nett knows the clients appreciate the bookmobile’s stop at the facility. “When we were on High Street, several of them would walk to the library to get books,” he explained, noting he appreciated the library’s willingness to add them to the schedule.

Johnson has pledged to volunteer in all of the 18 counties he represents in 2019. While at Carroll Hills Industries, Johnson received a tour of the facility from Barnett, who showed the facility’s paper shredding area, its gardens, its craft area and its new T-shirt printing area. Carroll Hills Industries offers adults with developmental disabilities an opportunity to be gainfully employed.

Do you fear Friday the 13th?

By NANCY SCHAAR FPS Correspondent

Are you afraid of the number 13? Are you afraid of Friday the 13th? If you are, you are not alone. Millions of people worldwide share that feeling with you.

Fear of the number 13 is called triskaidekaphobia. People afraid of Fridays are called friggaphobiacs.

But if you are afraid of the combinations of Friday and the 13th, which just happens to be this Friday, you suffer from paraskevidekatriaphobia. I hope they never use that in a spelling bee!

The notion of a bad Friday goes back to Biblical times where it is believed Eve tempted Adam on a Friday, the great flood started on a Friday, the Temple of Solomon fell on a Friday and Jesus was crucified on a Friday.

It is usual for the economy to slow down on Friday the 13th. Operators of cruise ships have held the departure times until 12:01 a.m. to make sure they don’t start off on the 13th. Many buildings do not have a 13th floor.

Superstitious remedies for the unlucky day? You can whistle while passing a graveyard, but if you’re that superstitious you probably won’t go near a graveyard anyway. My grandfather always said to wink at white horses.

One of the old tricks was to never stir coffee with a knife, but who does that anyway?

Make sure you don’t open an umbrella indoors, but I never do that because it just splashes rain everywhere. One of

the recommendations from the 1950s was to never pick up a safety pin on the sidewalk on the 13th. Has anyone every picked up a safety pin on a sidewalk?

Studies have proven that the number of admissions to hospitals increase due to accidents on Friday the 13th.

An expert on the malady said it is the most common superstition in the United States. Few weddings are planned for that day and many people won’t eat out on that day.

The number 13 held special significance in early Egyptian civilization.

One theory is that the number 13 is related to goddess-worshiping cultures in prehistoric times. The Vikings are said to have never let 13 people sit down to dinner. A frequent reference for the dinner number goes back to the Last Supper with Jesus and his disciples. In old Rome, Friday’s were execution days.

So this Friday, walk under a ladder, spill salt, befriend a black cat, break a mirror or two and make sure you enjoy the full moon Friday night! And then you can hope for a better day on Saturday.

Jackie Stewart, a representative for Encino Energy provided sources and phone numbers for residents if they have any questions regarding their oil and gas royalties.

Stewart said she has learned that people have questions about their royalties and don’t know where to find answers.

So she has developed a landowner’s newsletter that is sent to over 6,000 residents who receive more than $100 in royalties from their company.

“People want more information, better communications. We have overhauled our website and are trying to answer those questions,” said Stewart.

Stewart said Encino is local and have their warehouse in Carrollton. She said it takes time to look at the individual leases when they are called with questions. But we find the answers and get back to the caller.

“We are still drilling. We are doing several more wells this year. I will call you back as soon as I can,” said Stewart.

Stewart then introduced Seth Wehr.

Seth answers many of those phone calls with questions because he is from this area and still lives here. Wehr is the staff

landman.

Stewart was pleased to have donated funds to the sheriff’s department in order to help purchase a drone for the department.

Stewart also said that Encino offers free training for volunteer fire departments if any in the county is interested in that training.

If anyone has any questions regarding their lease or their oil and gas royalty incomes, please call Encino at 866-6780551.

In other matters, Carroll County Clerk of Courts Bill Wohlwend came to commissioners with objections from him and others about video recording in the courthouse building.

“Some people are walking into public offices and filming. Gentlemen, we need to stop video in the courthouse.

Someone needs to address this,” said Wohlwend.

“Our security should not be compromised. We need to secure this issue with the sheriff,” said Commissioner Bob Wirkner.

Wohlwend continued to say that there needs to be a statement not allowing video in the offices. Commissioner Jeff

Thursday, September 12, 2019 BOND from PG. 1 was requested because the nature of the charges indicated that Little presented a “danger to the community.”

Little, who appeared at Thursday’s hearing without an attorney, repeatedly glanced over his shoulder in the direction of his parents who were seated in the courtroom, as he told the judge

that the family had talked with several attorneys and “had one in mind.”

Repella outlined the sanctions that would be placed on Little if he posts a cash bond and said a bond reduction could be discussed at Little’s arraignment hearing, set for 10 a.m. on Wednesday, Sept 11.

LITTLE from PG. 1 not set out to cause harm or knowingly cause a death, as Barnett explained.

The grand jury heard testimony for two hours before a warrant was issued for Little’s arrest.

“I want to thank Sheriff Williams and his department. This case has many hours of investigative work. We ask that you respect the family’s privacy at this time,” said Barnett.

Barnett also thanked the public for their patience in this case and allowing authorities to do their due dilligence in preparation of this case.

“Jonathan was reported missing on April 14. We found his body on April 18. I can’t thank enough all the people who worked so hard and spent so much of their time helping to search for Jonathan. The Dellroy Fire Department opened their doors immediately and let use their facility. Food and drinks were provided by numerous sources. I don’t know how to thank all the people who helped us during that time,” said Williams.

“It’s been a lengthy case. We worked diligently the last few months. I want to thank the BCI (Bureau of Criminal Investigation) and the FBI for their help. From the beginning some things were evident, and some things were not. We were there.

We wanted the people responsible for Jonathan’s death,” continued Williams with emotion in his voice.

Williams said he will not speculate about the case or the actions of the grand jury. He would not comment on any of the evidence that was presented.

“The accused was a family friend. Jonathan worked on the family farm,” said Williams.

Williams did confirm that Little was arrested at the same farm where Jonathan’s body was discovered buried in a shallow grave.

MATTHEW H. LITTLE

JONATHAN MINARD When asked by the media about Little’s reaction at the time of his arrest, Williams said he didn’t seem concerned at all.

Williams said Little showed no remorse or emotion at all.

Little was brought before Carroll County Judge Michael Repella last week and was given a $10 million bond by the judge.

Little remains in the Carroll County jail.

Little’s arraignment hearing is scheduled for Wednesday, Sept.

11.

Grand Jury indicts four Four indictments were returned by the Carroll County grand jury - including one secret - during a full day’s session Aug. 4.

According to Carroll County Prosecuting Attorney Steven D. Barnett, the Grand Jury heard testimony from five witnesses, involving the four cases, all of which were returned as indictments.

Barnett said that indictments were returned against the following: - JOSHUA L. MORRIS, 35, whose last known address is 4300 Ruby Rd., Carrollton, indicted on one count of breaking and entering and one count of aggravated possession of drugs, both 5th degree felonies.

The Prosecutor said Carroll County Sheriff’s investigators determined Morris entered an Augusta area building without permission June 14. Property owners allegedly discovered evidence that the building had been entered while doing maintenance.

Further investigation by Carroll County Sheriff’s detectives found evidence at the scene that linked Morris to it. Investigators determined that Morris allegedly entered the building to use methamphetamine, which was also found at the scene.

- RICHARD W. HUBBS, 48, of 3257 Arbor Rd. NE, Carrollton, indicted on one count of driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, a 3rd degree felony and one count of resisting arrest, a 2nd degree misdemeanor.

It is alleged that Hubbs was stopped by Carroll County Sheriff’s Deputies Aug. 23 for driving on a suspended license near Minerva. Subsequently, deputies determined Hubbs was likely impaired after field sobriety testing and he was placed under arrest.

During his arrest, Hubbs allegedly resisted by pulling away and being uncooperative with the deputy. Hubbs was found to have been previously convicted in Stark County in 2002 for fel-

ony OVI, Barnett said.

ANDREW S. DUNLAP 32, of 16608 Emerick Rd., Kensington, indicted on one count of driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs with refusal to submit to test, a 4th degree felony, one count of trafficking in drugs, a 3rd degree felony, one count of possession of drugs, a 3rd degree felony, and one count of possessing drug abuse instruments, a 2nd degree misdemeanor.

It is alleged that while on routine traffic patrol Aug. 7 in Augusta Twp., Carroll County Sheriff’s deputies observed Dunlap’s vehicle failed to stop for a stop sign and a traffic stop was initiated. During the course of the traffic stop, deputies suspected Dunlap to be under the influence after field sobriety testing. Dunlap was subsequently arrested.

During the course of an inventory search of his vehicle, suspected anabolic steroids and hypodermic needles were found. Evidence gathered at the scene alleged that Dunlap was engaging in the sale or resale of the steroids. Deputies also determined that Dunlap had prior convictions for OVI in Stark County, the Prosecutor said.

- MATTHEW HERBERT LITTLE, 30, of 3035 Arrow Rd. NW, Carrollton, was secretly indicted on 15 charges in connection with the April 13, 2019, death of 14-year-old Jonathan Minard. (Full story elsewhere in this issue).

Prosecutor Barnett also said that the Grand Jury inspected the Carroll County Jail and in a written report filed with the Clerk of Courts noted no violations of applicable state laws and regulations.

An arraignment was set for 10 a.m. this Wednesday for Little while arraignment hearings for the remaining three indicted are scheduled for this Thursday beginning at 8:30 a.m. before Carroll County Common Pleas Court Judge Michael V. Repella II.

Sheriff’s Office seeks info on missing woman Carroll County Sheriff’s Office is seeking information on the whereabouts of Karren S. Hansen, who has not been seen since Sept. 3.

According to the sheriff’s office’s Facebook post on Sept. 6, Hansen was last seen at approximately 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 3, at a residence in Lee Township in Carroll County.

The post stated she was last seen wearing a white shirt, white capri pants, black slip-on, flowered shoes, and carrying a black purse. Hansen is 61 years old and is described as being

5 foot, 8 inches tall and weighing 180 pounds. She has blue eyes and brown hair.

Anyone who has information about where Hansen may be is asked to call the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office at 330627-2141 opt 0 for dispatch. The community’s assistance with this is appreciated.

KARREN HANSEN

ENCINO from PG. 1 Ohler also said that the matter needs to be addressed by the Security Committee.

All commissioners agreed that Wirkner will meet with Judge Gary Willen and the Security Committee to address the issue.

Commissioners were visited by Chris Rotondo, Brown Township Trustee and Carl Mangun, Augusta Township Trustee.

Commissioners were advised of their current financial situation to repair the road slip in their jurisdiction.

Mangun said they did receive bids for the road repair project and they were surprised that all the bids were $40,000 to $50,000 more than they expected. They do not have the funds to move forward. They questioned where to find a grant writer.

Wirkner advised that OMEGA has grant writers and do not charge a fee for counties to make use of them.

Mangun was hoping that commissioners would have funds available to assist with the project. Ohler said they have so many of their own projects going on right now such as the clock tower repair, jail upgrades, parking lot steps, health department parking lot, and more.

Wirkner suggested Ohler check to see if there is any funding available to help with this project.

Rotondo said his township did no chip and seal this year in order to use those funds for the road slip repairs. Mangun said his township has done cuts as well and has not ordered their spring stone in an effort to gather more funds for the road project.

Ohler said he will see if anything is available.

Rosebud Mining received approval from commissioners for a renewal for a coal mining permit for portions of Center, Lee, Loudon and Union Townships.

Commissioners agreed to hire Janice Vaughan as the new pound keeper. Three were interviewed and Vaughan seemed to have the best qualifications.

“She’s new to the area but has worked in grooming facilities before. She was the best fit overall,” said Commissioner Lewis Mickley.

Her duties begin September 23 at $11 per hour.

In other business commissioners: - SIGNED a contract with Kramer Engineers of Columbus, Ohio for the county jail project at a cost of $61,650.

- LEARNED the project on State Route 9 has progressed to the gas plant. The project should be completed by the end of September.

- AUTHORIZED Superior Paving to proceed with paving to be completed by Jan. 7, 2020.

- DECLARED September as Prostate Awareness Month.

County EMA updates procedures for flood relief Emergency Management Agency Deputy Director Brett Lee recently updated commissioners on the steps needed for residents to apply for financial recovery help through the federal and state governments.

Lee said that all of the paperwork that has been up until now will need to go to county engineer. Lee said Monday he needed to change that information.

“I misquoted. Individuals need to file their paperwork for possible flood relief to the State of Ohio. It does not go to the county engineer as I had thought,” said Lee. If anyone has any questions, please call Lee at the Emergency Management Agency at 330627-0003.

The county hopes to receive 75% reimbursement from the state and residents will be responsible for the other 25%.

Work that has already been completed by residents can be used to cover the 25% due from residents.

Carrollton council increases funding for road construction

By NANCY SCHAAR FPS Correspondent Carrollton Village Administrator Mark Wells received funding up to $50,000 to finish the restructuring and construction of Industrial Drive.

Wells reported that it was estimated that $43,506 is still needed to finish the construction of the road in Industrial Park.

Wells did receive three quotes.

The other two quotes were at $63,900 and $98,000. Crews have been busy working on the project by removing the road that was there, taking it down to the dirt, and reconstructing the road using proper procedures.

The additional time needed for the road to be completed is about a week, according to Wells.

“The road just wasn’t built right when it was put in. We found one end with two inches of concrete and the other end had

eight inches of concrete. There was no soil stabilization, but there is now,” said Wells.

In other business council: - PASSED as an emergency resolution one that will accept the amounts and rates as determined by the budget commission and authorizing the necessary tax levies and certifying them to the county auditor.

- AGREED to amend appropriations.

- SET the speed limit for Industrial Drive when it is finished

as 25 miles per hour as recommended by the Chief of Police Robert Ellington.

- WILL hold a work session Monday, Sept. 16 at 6 p.m.

- SCHEDULED a Zoning Board of Appeals meeting for Sept. 23 at 6:30 p.m. to consider a request for a garage plan that is 64 feet over the required limit.

- HAVE been asked by a subdivision just outside the village if they can annex into the village.

Wells will discuss this with residents involved.

Edison to host Tearin’ Up the Turf band show Sept. 14 Area marching bands will be making sweet music at Cartwright Memorial Stadium as Edison High School hosts its 14th annual Tearin’ Up the Turf this Saturday, Sept. 14, and proceeds will help acquire some much-needed new uniforms.

This year’s event will be held at 7 p.m. at the stadium, located at 9890 SR 152, east of Richmond. Tickets are $7 for adults, $5 for students and senior citizens and children under age 5 are free, while parking is by donation.

EHS Band Director Marc Sansone said students from eight high schools and one university will take to the field to perform halftime show numbers and entertain the crowd.

“We will be hosting Bellaire, Bridgeport, Oak Glen, Wellsville, Toronto, Thomas Jefferson [in Pennsylvania], Shadyside and West Liberty University,” he added, saying it marked the first time for Shadyside to appear.

“It’s officially known as a festival and we’ll have T-shirts, concessions and Candygrams you can send to a band member. Each band will have an opportunity to perform 10-to15-minute halftime shows and get a participation award in the

end. It’s from 7-9 p.m., rain or shine.”

This year’s proceeds will help purchase new uniforms for Edison band members and replace current attire that is a quarter of a century old.

“We are halfway through the goal and need about $30,000, but that’s only for jackets,” he added. “The process to get uniforms takes about six months and we are looking at designs,” Sansone said.

The band boosters organization has generated funds through two sportsman’s bash events as well as band shows and the fundraising has been a fiveyear process.

Sansone continued that donations are also being accepted from the public and checks may be made payable to the Edison High School Band Boosters and sent to the school. Hopes are to have the new uniforms ordered within the next 18 months from Stanbury Uniforms of Missouri.

Presently, there are 75 members in the band and Sansone hopes to purchase 100 jackets in various sizes in case of growth spurts or extra members. For more information about donations, contact Sansone by email at Marc.sansone@edisonwildcats.org.

Lest We Forget

By CAPT. CHARLES PEARSON

U.S. Marine Corps, ret.

On Aug. 19, 1945, word was flashed from ChungKing that General Wainwright, hero of Bataan and Corregidor, had been freed from the prison camp near Mukden with many of his comrades, including Major General George M. Parker Jr. and Lieutenant Colonel James P. S. Devereux, commander of the Marines in their heroic stand at Wake Island.

At first slowly, but then at an ever-increasing tempo, the prison camps began to yield their human wreckage. Of the more than 200,000 Allied men and women incarcerated by the enemy, at least 50,000 had died in camp or had been torpedoed on prison ships.

Japan’s home island held nearly 40,000 of the survivors; 2,500 more were in Korea and Manchuria, among whom were the highest captured officers; camps in China held 15,000 more, those in Indo-China, Thailand and Malaya numbered 50,000.

There were 60,000 in the Netherlands and East Indies and thousands more on scattered islands of the Pacific.

When General Wainwright emerged after 1,201 days as a prisoner he was a ghastly sight.

Always so thin that he earned the nickname “Skinny,” he presented the appearance of a yellow parchment spread over a cadaver. He was so weak when he greeted his liberators that his entire weight rested on a cane.

At his side, ready to catch him should he fall, were General Parker and Lieutenant General Sir Arthur E. Percival, British Commander at Singapore, who had surrendered to the Japanese General Yamashita. General Wainwright was deaf from the effects of the gunfire at Cor-

regidor and the subsequent neglect and hardships suffered in the numerous prison camps in which he had been held.

The sufferings of the hero, who celebrated his sixty-second birthday four days after his liberation, were to be forgotten in a round of honors such as he had never dreamed. The vanquished had become the victors.

It was not until Aug. 28 that he reached ChungKing and made his first statement. It was typical of the man that he should express his deep gratitude for the “forbearance and generosity greater than any in experience of any other defeated commander” with which the American people had accepted his surrender at Corregidor.

General MacArthur, in a first of many series of generous gestures embodying the feelings of the entire Allied world, invited General Wainwright and General Percival to go with him to Tokyo and witness the formal surrender of the Japanese. Beyond that, the Allied Supreme commander arranged for General Wainwright to accept the final surrender of the Japanese in the Philippines from the once proud “Tiger of Malaya,” General Yamashita.

In celebration it is easy to forget the sufferings of another, but we should never forget the atrocities enacted on our Prisoners of War. Those acts should be entranced in our memories.

Those memories should be passed on to our children, so they may draw from them the assistance they need to improve our world. The POW-MIA flag should be flown in every community as a constant reminder of the sufferings endured by our POW’s. With God’s help – let us never forget and let us learn from it.

The Sherrodsville Lions Club recently held its annual family picnic and will begin its 45th year of service. Club members Secretary/Treasurer Valerie Gardner (left) and President Peggy Leslie (right) welcomed District 56 Governor Tony DeLuke.

Sherrodsville Lions Club celebrates the start of its 45th year with picnic

By NANCY SCHAAR FPS Correspondent Sherrodsville Lions Club hosted its yearly family picnic Monday, Aug. 26 at the park in Sherrodsville.

The club was formed in 1974 and this will be its 45th year of service to the community.

There are currently 14 members and Peggy Leslie is serving as president of the club. Vice president is Donna Anderson, and Secretary/Treasurer is Valerie Gardner.

The club sponsors Earth Day clean up at the village park every spring. They sponsor a Lunch with Santa on the first Saturday in December and there is a freewill donation only breakfast served on the first Saturday of the month, according to Gardner.

All proceeds from these events are used for many purposes throughout the community. A scholarship is presented each year to a student based on volunteerism. The club donates regularly to the village for help with special projects.

“In seven years, we’ve donated $5,000 in scholarships. That’s pretty good,” commented Gardner.

Last month, the club donated $2,000 to assist with the moving and assembling of new playground equipment that was donated by Conotton Valley Schools to the village for the

park.

Years ago, the Lions Club donated the land at the edge of the village where the ball fields are located for the school teams to use. Most people just call it the ball fields, but the actual name is Lions Club Ball Fields, according to member Bill Wilkin.

“Most people have forgotten those fields were a gift from the Lions Club. The wooden bleachers out there were built in my shop. We’ve done a lot for this village. We like to help whenever we can,” said Wilkin.

The longest serving member of the club is Denny Jones of Sherrodsville who joined in 1984 and has served for 35 years. His twin brother, Jon also joined the same year but Denny has one month seniority on his brother.

Tony DeLuke is the District Governor for Sherrodsville’s District 56. He visits all the clubs in his unit each year.

“Last year, there was no electric and we ate here by candlelight,” said DeLuke with a chuckle.

Membership is down a little bit, but not by much. The clubs helps the community and they take care of the needs of the community,” said DeLuke.

When the Lions Clubs were formed they focused on eye screening and providing eye glasses to children whose families could not afford them on their own. They have added other projects in recent years such as women’s shelters, aiding veterans, and four years ago the

clubs started a Legacy project, according to DeLuke.

The Lions Club was formed in 1917 in Chicago. The new project that has been added is for childhood cancer research. This program is international and is global according to DeLuke.

They are working with Akron Children’s Hospital and other organizations to assist with patient care and research for these types of cancers.

Other programs include providing pilot dogs, hunger, pediatric cancer, vision, and diabetes support which he feels is rampant in both children and adults.

“These clubs do a great deal for their communities. New members are always needed and appreciated. It’s a great way to give back to your own community,” said DeLuke.

“The Lions Club is the best thing I do. It’s just helping others and that’s what we do,” said Wilkin.

Both Jones men said they enjoy the friendships they have found in the club and it’s all for the good of the community.

Every Tuesday evening at 6:30 p.m. residents and friends can enjoy a great night of Bingo with long time member Bill Wilkin calling the numbers.

Cash prizes are awarded each week and there are two $500 jackpots available!

Monthly meetings are held on the fourth Monday at 7 p.m. at the Lions Club building on school house hill.

Coventry Comets handle the Carrollton Warriors 27-7

By JORDAN MILLER

Sports Editor

AKRON - For the first time since the 2008 season, the Carrollton Warriors football team starts the season with two straight losses. They finished the season 0-10 that year.

Carrollton traveled to Akron to battle the Coventry Comets Friday night, looking for their first win of the year, but were walked over 27-7.

The Coventry Comets received the opening kick off and returned it to the Warriors 49-yard-line.

It only took the Comets one play to find themself celebrating. Quarterback Calvin Dudley connected with Kenton Duty for a 49-yard touchdown pass on the first play from scrimmage.

Coventry lead 7-0.

“We give up that first play and they score a touchdown,” CHS coach Jim Tsilimos said post-game. “Like I told the kids, things happen in a football game and things aren’t ever clean. It seemed like it took the air out of us for whatever reason.”

Carrollton couldn’t get the ball moving on their first drive of the game, or throughout the game, giving the Comets the ball for another scoring opportunity.

“Offensively we just made too many mistakes, defensively we missed a lot of tackles.”

Coventry’s Brendan Longwell rushed it in from eight yards out to extend the Comets’ lead. Carrollton blocked the extra point and the score was 13-0 with 3:10 remaining in the first quarter.

The Comets scored another pair of

touchdowns in the second quarter.

Justin Christian tossed a 25-yard pass to Jimmie Cotton-Painter less than two minutes into the quarter to put the Comets up 20-0.

Dudley rushed the ball into the end zone for a five-yard touchdown with 4:11 remaining in the first half to make the score 27-0.

Both teams stayed off the board in the third quarter and late into the fourth.

It wasn’t until Carrollton senior Colby Moore scored on a three-yard touchdown run with 4:35 left in regulation, Carrollton’s first offensive touchdown of the season, to cut Coventry’s lead to 27-7. Moore finished the game with 47 rushing yards.

“I challenged them at halftime, and I was glad we did respond,” Tsilimos said.

“We have to put that together for four quarters.”

Coventry outgained the Carrollton Warriors with 332 yards of total offense to 125.

The Comets led the rushing attack with 237 yards compared to Carrollton’s 71.

Carrollton sophomore QB Austin Colletti completed six passes for 54 yards; Justin Naylor hauled in Colletti’s longest pass of the game for 25 yards.

Coventry was undisciplined, commiting 13 penalties for 120 yards to Carrollton’s five for 30.

The time of possession was nearly even amongst both teams: Carrollton controlled the ball for 23:01, Coventry had it for 24:59.

The Carrollton Warriors will be back on the road again Friday against the Cambridge Bobcats.

The Lady Warriors won the fourth set to win the match, 25-18, Abby Laizure led Carrollton from the line against Minerva, scoring 11 points, including five aces. Laizure also tallied 25 assists.

Cailyn Bright was a force at the net with 14 kills, including one solo block and one assisted block.

Kylee Smith recorded 22 digs for the winning Warriors.

Sarah Law led the Minerva Lady Lions with seven points in the loss.

Ella Kendrick finished with eight kills and Shea Cress recorded 16 assists for Minerva.

Caiti Litchfield finished with 19 receptions and 12 digs.

The Lady Warriors continued their winning ways against the Canton South Wildcats just two days later.

Carrollton won in a three-set sweep of the Wildcats: 25-19, 25-17 and 25-21.

Josie Burgett dominated at the line, recording 17 points and three aces.

Improved Minerva team gives Sandy Valley Cardinals a run for their money

By JORDAN MILLER

Sports Editor

MAGNOLIA - It was a battle for sure in Magnolia Friday night when the Minerva Lions came to town to take on the Sandy Valley Cardinals.

The Cardinals entered the season with high expectations, after winning the school’s first division championship last season after more than five decades.

Minerva entered the game with a losing streak spanning 41 games but you couldn’t tell on the field Minerva hasn’t won a game since the 2014 season.

Minerva led the Cardinals late in the game, the second time they’ve led an opponent in the second half this season.

The Cardinals hit the ground running, scoring on the opening drive of the game when junior QB Cameron Blair tossed Brady Russell a 38-yard pass; their third connection of the game.

Brayden Costea, Minerva’s QB, called his own number, running for a 26-yard touchdown in the opening quarter.

After a failed two-point conversion, Sandy Valley led 7-6.

The tug-a-war battle continued in the second quarter, when Blair threw his second touchdown pass of the game, this time to Brodie Kelly for 28 yards.

Minerva responded once again on a twoyard touchdown run by Steve Place.

Minerva’s defense stepped up late in the second quarter, when Khail Louive picked off a pass from Blair and returned it 12 yards for a touchdown, with under two minutes left in the opening half. Minerva took their first

lead of the game, 18-14.

Sandy Valley’s seasoned QB remained steady on the next drive of the game, moving his team down the field and scoring on a 14-yard touchdown run himself.

Sandy Valley took a 21-18 lead into halftime.

Minerva regained a 24-21 lead with 4:47 left in the third quarter when Kaden Walker hauled in a 28-yard touchdown pass from Costea.

The Cardinals jumped back in front on the ensuing drive after Demetrius Evans caught a 19-yard touchdown pass from Blair.

Sandy Valley led 27-24 with a 12minute quarter to go.

The Cardinals kept Minerva off the board the rest of the game, adding two more touchdowns: a 20-yard run by Blair and a six-yard run by Brendan Obradovich.

The final score was 41-24.

Blair finished the game with five total touchdowns - three passing and two rushing. He completed 15-of-23 pass attempts for 257 yards. He rushed for 121 yards as well.

Minerva’s sophmore QB, Costea, put on a strong outing with 172 yards and a touchdown on 11 completions. He also rushed for 34 yards.

Minerva junior Garrison Markins led the Lions with 41 rushing yards and 48 receiving.

Sandy Valley improved to 2-0 and will travel to Tuskey Valley (0-2) Sept. 13.

Minerva will host their first home game of the season against Beaver Local.

The Carrollton Lady Warriors soccer team dominated the pitch last Wednesday as they defeated the Sandy Valley Cardinals by a final score of 7 to 1. The nonconference matchup took place at Community Field.

The Warriors got to work early

the ball hard past the hands of the Cardinal keeper.

Carrollton kept the pressure on the Cardinals defense by staying on the offensive side of the field most of the first half. With just two minutes left in the first stanza, Irwin brought the ball down the pitch waiting for the perfect opportunity to take a shot on goal. Irwin floated the

ball over the fingertips of the outstretched Cardinal goalie, Meghan Hughes. The goal gave the Warriors a 3 to 0 advantage at intermission.

The Lady Cardinals scored their lone goal two minutes into the second half on a shot by Julie Muller that dribbled just past the hands of Carrollton goal keeper Brianna Ohler.

KEEPER SAVES: Meghan Hughes (SV) 14; Brianna Ohler (C) 8.

NEXT GAME: Monday at Dover High School and Thursday at Salem High School, both games start at 7 p.m.

Carrollton’s Danielle Elson answered right back at the 36 minute mark with a power kick that passed under a diving Hughes. At the 30 minute mark K. Bodo tapped in a goal of her own to give the Warriors a 5 to 1 advantage.

at eight a piece.

As time was winding down in the first quarter the Rockets’ Caldwell pitched the ball behind his running back and Malvern’s Moser jumped on the loose ball giving the Hornets possession at the Rockets 31 yard line.

Hutchison pierced through the center of the Rocket defense and scored on an eight yard scamper.

Tristian Phillips missed on the PAT attempt giving Malvern a 14-8 lead just 54 seconds into the second quarter.

The Rockets had a three-andout on their next possession and Malvern’s Martin fielded the punt at his 20 yardline before returning the kick to the 44 yard line. On the next play Hutchison found Martin over the middle of the field with a perfectly placed pass. Martin caught the ball and scurried into the end zone for a 56 yard receiving touch down. Phillips connected on the PAT giving Malvern a 21-8 lead with 8:34 left in the first half.

The Rockets had a four-minute drive that ended in a turnover on downs at the Malvern 16 yard line. Hutchison handed the ball to Moser who took off down the sideline near the Malvern bench for a 70 yard touchdown run. Phillips’ PAT was good and Malvern had a commanding 28-8 lead.

Malvern’s Noah Ball intercepted Caldwell’s pass at the Rocket 35 yard line setting up the Hornet offense for another easy touchdown. Hutchison scored on

Sports Writer

The Malvern Hornets poured on the offense as they routed the Valley Conotton visiting Rockets 52-14. The Hornets picked up their first win of this young season as they continued non-conference play.

After winning the coin toss and electing to begin the game on offense the Rockets began their opening drive from the 24 yard line. After a five yard pass completion and a one yard scramble, Rocket quarterback Braden Caldwell took off on a designed running play that resulted in a 70 yard touchdown run. The Rockets successfully converted on a two-point try and took an early 8-0 lead while only using 1:30 of the game clock.

The Hornets started out on their own 19 yard line after the ensuing kickoff. Malvern started their run game early by feeding the ball to Adam Moser three of their first four plays netting 12 yards. On the fifth play of the Derk quarterback drive Hutchison accepted the snap in shotgun formation but the ball flew over his head about 15 yards. Hutchison scooped up the ball and found a wide open Kenneth Martin near the line of scrimmage resulting in a 61 yard catch and run putting the Hornets on the scoreboard.

Hutchison found Martin in the end zone to complete the twopoint conversion tying the game

an 11 yard scramble. Phillips missed the PAT. The first half troubles continued in the second half for the Rockets as Caldwell fumbled the ball away to Malvern’s DaVair Williams at the Rocket 25 yard line.

Malvern capped off the drive when Hutchison handed the ball to Moser who pounded through the Rocket defense finding the end zone at the end of his 11 yard run. The PAT was no good but the Hornets lead grew to 40-8.

The Rockets’ Caldwell darted through the left side of his line finding pay dirt for a 34 yard touchdown run. The scamper gave Conotton Valley their second score of the game. After the failed two-point conversion the Rockets trailed 40-14.

As the third quarter game clock was winding down the Rockets were forced to punt.

The ball took a bounce away from Malverns’ return man but into the hands of Moser who was on a blocking assignment.

When Moser collected the ball he turned around and went the distance down the sideline for an exciting 80 yard punt return.

The extra point was missed but the score grew to 46-14.

Malverns’ Xavier Watson ended the Hornets scoring when he reached the goal line on a three yard run into the teeth of the rocket defense giving the Hornets a 54-14 victory.

The Rockets will host Newcomerstown on Friday while the Hornets will face off against Wellsville on the road.

Both games start at 7 p.m.

“Our defense will have a huge task this week trying to contain Wellsville and all of their athletes. They really don't have a feature back, but they have 34 guys that run the ball pretty well. I believe they are a dark horse contender in the EOAC. It will be a big challenge for us, but we'll be up for it,” said Friday’s about Chiurco upcoming game.

We talked all week about finishing and playing four quarters and we're getting there, but we have so many little things we have to get better at.

“Woodlawn,” described as a fantastic Christian film, will be shown Saturday, Sept. 14 at 6:30 p.m. at Carrollton Bible Chapel, located at 365 Steubenville Road, Carrollton.

The showing is free and open to the public.

Church officials say “Woodlawn” is more moving than the emotional movie, “War Room.”

We are looking at True Salvation, Lesson 2. There are three divisions in the New Testament. Last week we looked at Division 1, the four Gospels.

Today, we will look at Division 2, the Book of Acts. It records the apostles’ ministry and the fulfillment of the Great Commission. We will look at three examples in the Book of Acts on New Testament salvation.

Example 1: Refer to Acts 2:37-47 - Peter becomes the spokesperson for the apostles. When asked by the Jews, “How can we be saved?” Peter preaches the first message on salvation. Acts 2:38 says “Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.” Three thousand Jews obeyed that day.

Acts 2:47 says that they were now added to the church. Some say this message is just for the Jews. That would mean that there is more than one gospel message; one for the Jews, one for the Gentiles. In Galatians 1:6-12, Paul says there is only one gospel.

If someone would preach another gospel, they would be accursed.

Example 2 - An example of the gospel being delivered to the Gentiles is found in Acts Chapter 10. Cornelius is a very religious man. He prayed down an angel from heaven. The angel instructed him to go see Simon Peter; when they met, Simon Peter preached the Great Commission to Cornelius and his friends. When they obeyed, they received the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues and they were baptized in Jesus Name. This is the fulfillment of John 3:5, which says “except a man be born of water and spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.” Example 3 - Another example is found in Acts 19:1-6 - Apostle Paul comes to Ephesus and meets the 12 disciples of John the Baptist. Paul asked if they had received the Holy Ghost since they had believed; they had not. Paul asked them how they were baptized.

They said “Unto John’s baptism.”

Paul told them that they must believe on Jesus. When they heard tis, they were baptized in Jesus’ Name and received the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues.

When a person is born of the Spirit, speaking in tongues is not an exception - it’s the norm. The Old Testament spoke of it in Isaiah 28:11 and Jesus spoke of it in the Great Commission in Mark 16:17.

In John 7:38,39, Jesus said a person who believes on Him according to the scripture will receive the Holy Ghost.

We can trust the apostles’ delivery of the Great Commission. I John 4:6 says, “We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.”

Please visit my Facebook page; there are three videos on True Salvation. You are also welcome at Heaven’s Edge Apostolic Church, 1196 Brenner Rd. NE, Carrollton, on Sunday morning at 10 a.m. and Thursday evening at 7 p.m.

MWCD board begins search for its next executive director The Board of Directors of the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District (MWCD) has begun the search for the next executive director, retaining Waverly Partners as its executive search firm.

Joanne Limbach, board president, along with the four other MWCD Board members, will work with Waverly Partners to

identify qualified local, regional and national candidates.

“Our Board, along with MWCD staff, has developed a position profile with the experience and leadership characteristics of our preferred candidate,” Limbach said. “We are open to executives with backgrounds in parks and recreation agencies, conservation-focused organiza-

tions, other kinds of nonprofits, private sector entities or other related experience. A candidate with a commitment to our mission of responsible stewards dedicated to providing flood reduction, conservation and recreation in the Muskingum River Watershed is a priority.”

The position profile is available on the MWCD website

at www.mwcd.org.

John Hoopingarner, the MWCD’s executive director since 1989, has announced his plan to retire in the Spring of 2020.
