After the resolution is delivered to village officials there is a 60 day wait before the village could move forward with the annexation. The entire parcel of land is currently owned by RPG Ohio Properties, LLC, and is located off of Yellowbush Road, connecting with current village land. The property is for both residential and commercial use. In other business, council adopted a resolution for the rates and amounts as determined by the county budget commission. Council approved the temporary transfer of money from the general NEW ALBANY — Post Holdings, Inc., and Bob Evans Farms, Inc., announced Tuesday that they have entered into a definitive agreement in which Post will acquire Bob Evans for $77.00 per share. According to a press release posted on investors.bobevansgrocerystore.com, the combination will significantly strengthen Post’s portfolio of brands, expand choices for customers and increase Post’s presence in growth categories of the packaged food market. Founded in 1948, Bob Evans is a leading producer and distributor of refrigerated potato, pasta and vegetable-based side dishes, pork sausage, and a variety of refrigerated and frozen convenience food items under the Bob Evans, Owens, Country Creek and Pineland Farms brands. Bob Evans also has a growing food service business, representing approximately 35 percent of volume. The food service business sells a range of products, including sausage, sausage gravy, breakfast sandwiches and side dishes, which are made to match individual customer specifications. The addition of Bob Evans’ portfolio of brands and products will enhance Post’s refrigerated side dish offering, provide Post with a presence in breakfast sausage and will immediately provide Post with a leading position in the higher growth perimeter of the store. The combination with Bob Evans will also strengthen Post’s presence in commercial food service, create opportunities for future growth and enhance Post’s position as one of North America’s largest packaged food companies. “We have enormous respect for Bob Evans’ success and are excited about the growth opportunities this combination will create,” said Rob Vitale, president and chief executive officer of Post Holdings. “Combining with Bob Evans expands our portfolio of top brands and gives Post a leading position in the perimeter of the store. We look forward to welcoming the talented Bob Evans team to Post and working to create a successful future together.” “We are pleased at the prospect of combining our complementary portfolios with Post Holdings,” said Mike Townsley, president and chief executive officer of Bob Evans Farms. “This transaction creates enhanced and certain value for our See COUNCIL | 3 See POST | 5 Photos by Sarah Hawley | Sentinel Volunteers left Pomeroy on Tuesday evening with trucks and trailers loaded down with supplies and donations for those in Florida impacted by Hurricane Irma. Volunteers Dave Neutzling, Craig Belcher, Rick and Pam Patterson, Taylor and Kelsey Rowe, Clinton Bailey, Courtney Fitzgerald and Eric Toops will be taking the supplies to Florida as well as spending a few days volunteering in the Jacksonville, Bradenton, Lake Placid and Naples areas which were impacted by the storm. Over the past week hundreds of individuals, businesses and organizations from around the region have made donations of supplies and money to the group for the hurricane victims following a social media call to help from local photographer Brandon Bartee. As a personal touch, some of those making donations, including Jaelyn Neutzling (stepdaughter of volunteer Dave Neutzling), took time to write a personal message or sign their names to the trailer of supplies. Due to the amount of donations, which included generators, power washers and mattresses, a second trip is being planned to take the supplies which did not fit in the trailers for the first trip. A new place to play By Sarah Hawley shawley@aimmediamidwest.com RACINE — After months of fundraising, donations and planning, a new playground area was installed on Saturday at Southern Elementary. More than 30 volunteers spent hours on Saturday turning an empty piece of ground into an American Ninja Warrior inspired playground for the students. “I am so grateful for all of the volunteers that helped on our build day. It was a very successful day,” said project organizer and elementary physical education teacher Heather DaileyJohnson. The months of fundraising and the hours of volunteer work were made worth it when the kids arrived on the playground on Monday. “Watching the students this afternoon (Monday) see the playground for the first time was like Christmas morning. My heart is so full,” said DaileyJohnson. “I would like to say, thank you to each person, business, and our entire community who has supported our project for the last 9 months. There are many children that you have made and impact in their lives. In addition to the local fundraising and donations, the school received a $15,000 Let’s Play Community Construction Grant to assist with the purchase of the equipment.

Korea URG students By Jonathan Lemire and Darlene Superville Associated Press UNITED NATIONS — President Donald Trump, in a combative debut speech to the U.N. General Assembly, threatened to “totally destroy” North Korea if the nation’s “Rocket man” leader does not abandon his drive toward nuclear weapons. Trump, who has ramped up his rhetoric throughout the escalating crisis with North Korea, told the murmuring crowd of world leaders on Tuesday that “it is far past time for the nations of the world to confront” Kim Jong Un and said that Kim’s “reckless pursuit of nuclear weapons” poses a threat to “the entire world with an unthinkable loss of human life.” “Rocket man is on a suicide mission for himself and his regime,” said Trump, using a belittling nickname for the North Korean leader. He said of the U.S.: “If it is forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea.” In dark language reminiscent of his “American carnage” inaugural address, Trump touched upon hot spots around the globe, declaring, “The scourge of our planet is a group of rogue regimes.” Elected on the nationalist slogan “America First,” Trump argued that individual nations should act in their own self-interest, yet rally together when faced with a common threat.

Play From page 1 with volunteer workers. “I was very impressed with how smooth the build went. This summer we receive the Let’s Play, KaBoom! to complete the fundraising portion for our playground. The grant is a community build grant, meaning our community would actually build the playground. We also had an actual supervisor guiding our build. I am so pleased and would suggest any organization to apply for this grant,” said DaileyJohnson. In addition to the grant funding, a Color Run fundraiser was held in the spring, along with numerous business and individual donations to the project. The playground project began last year with the decision to create a new playground which can not only be used by second and third grade students, but by sports teams, community mem- bers and others. What will make this equipment unique in comparison to the other playground equipment is that it is geared toward fitness, climbing and agility. Sarah Hawley is the managing editor of The Daily Sentinel. discuss date rape By Dean Wright deanwright@aimmediamidwest.com RIO GRANDE — Can you imagine someone you dated trying to get you to do something you did not want to do, and after you told them to stop they said you just need to stop thinking and start feeling and promised the night was going to be very special? Because that is what happened to Katie Koestner before she was raped. “Right now, wherever you are in life, are you strong enough to stand alone for a cause that you may not even want because you think it’s the right thing to do to keep it from happening to someone else?” said Koestner as she shared her tale with University of Rio Grande and Rio Grande Community College students in the Berry Fine and Performing Arts Center Sunday evening. Koestner was 18 in 1990 when she went on a date with a fellow college student before she was raped. After that moment, she made it her life’s mission to become an expert in young adult dating culture and a mouthpiece against the dangers of rape and sexual violence. She has been featured on the cover of Time magazine as well as dozens of national television programs for her story. The event speaker started the evening’s program with lighthearted shared life experiences which had students laughing before she built to the moment where she described her rape in detail. URG President Dr. Michelle Johnston first invited Koestner to the stage and told students that if at any time they needed to leave the room, they were welcome to speak with an advocate in the hall. Koestner had gone out with a young man, drank before eventually inviting the man into her room. The man then failed to heed Koestner’s protests. Koestner is often considered the first date rape survivor to speak publicly. Her story made national news when her case was dismissed in court. Through her story and influence, federal student safety legislation has been passed in Washington D.C. Koestner would eventually invite Kent State Director of Conduct Todd Kamenash onto the stage with her to share in a date rape scenario where she would impersonate a young woman and Kamenash would impersonate the young man involved in that scenario. After, students were asked to share their opinions of the story and then vote on to whether the young man was at fault for rape. Throughout the story, both characters had been drinking and would eventually be at a house party. The young woman was sick at one point and invited back upstairs to sleep off her intoxication. The young man claimed the girl grabbed ahold of him and wanted to begin kissing before she passed out. She would then wake up and claim she was ready to start again. Over 90 percent of the students in the fine arts center agreed the young man was at fault. Kamenash would share with students that many colleges throughout the country took a stance that if one was intoxicated, he or she was incapable by the college’s policy definition of providing consent for sexual relations. During the rounds of shared student opinions, one young unnamed woman shared her personal experience with assault. “I voted the way I did (that the young man was at fault) because this all takes a personal toll on me,” the woman said. “Three years ago, I was in an abusive relationship. And in a relationship, no still means no. No matter how you feel about that person. No matter what you’ve done with that person, every time you decide yes or no. For me, there was one time the abuse was so bad that I didn’t get to say no. So for those of you that are making excuses (for the young man), I feel bad for you and I feel bad for whoever you’re with because no means no. There’s no ‘unless.’ There’s no ‘we were dating and in a relationship and having a good time, we were doing this and doing that.’ No. No means no. Every single time. No means no.” The room opened in applause at the end of her statement.

That’s a shame because the Scrooges have a point, even if you don’t share their (and my) concern over a national debt that zoomed past the $20 trillion mark last week. The fact is that existing government policy encourages too many people to live in harm’s way. For nearly 50 years, the federal government has administered the National Flood Insurance Program, which allows millions of property owners in flood-prone areas to purchase protection against water damage at below-market rates. More than half of the beneficiaries live in — of all places! — Florida and Texas. The NFIP, which is administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, was nearly $25 billion in debt even before hurricanes Harvey and Irma. Only through periodic bailouts can the fund keep its anti-actuarial promises. And, as the Los Angeles Times delicately phrased it in a recent news article, “The cheap rates have also confused some homeowners about the risk of flooding in their neighborhood.” Economists have been telling us for decades that prices are a way of conveying information, and individuals tend to respond to incentives. It doesn’t require an advanced degree to reckon just how people will respond to the incentive of artificially inexpensive insurance rates in dangerous but attractive locales. “While there is an imperative for the government to provide assistance in time of crisis,” Kevin Starbuck, the former emergency management coordinator for the city of Amarillo, Texas, asserted in a December 2016 Homeland Security Affairs paper, “that assistance may change behavior; policies designed to limit risk may actually prolong or increase risk.” Welcome to the concept of moral hazard. This being government, politics also tend to get in the way. No office-holder wants to be the one to tell existing property owners that their holiday from the free market is over. For that reason, homeowners were “grandfathered” in at unreasonably low rates when FEMA first drew up its flood insurance rate maps and guaranteed access to coverage. The result is as grisly as you would expect: 3.8 percent of policyholders have filed for repetitive losses, accounting for a disproportionate 35.5 percent of flood loss claims and 30.5 percent of claim payments, Starbuck said. Of those serial recipients, FEMA estimates that a jaw-dropping 90 percent pay grandfathered rates. Every new calamity, and every new check-writing flurry from the feds, perpetuates a dumb system. California is no stranger to government-insurance policies gone horribly wrong. In 1968, the same year that brought us the National Flood Insurance Act, Congress brought into existence Fair Access to Insurance Requirements, which made government the property insurer of last resort in places insurance companies wouldn’t touch, such as riot-scarred inner cities. Over time, almost as if to illustrate the concept of mission creep, FAIR policies in California clustered disproportionately in rich, fire-prone regions such as Malibu. These backward incentives are glaringly obvious to almost everybody who has studied the government’s disaster-area insurance guarantees. Yet they persist, mutate and even grow. Why? Because nobody likes to be called a piece of … . So maybe it’s time to flip the script. Congress and President Donald Trump just extended the National Flood Insurance Program — which had been scheduled to run out at the end of this month — until Dec. 8. That gives the Legislature plenty of time to, at minimum, put an end to grandfathered rates. But the longer-term solution is staring us right in the face. Let the market, not some hustlers trying to win re-election, determine how to price insurance in floodplains, fire belts and along earthquake faults. Stop socializing other people’s siting decisions. There’s no compelling reason for South Dakota to bail out South Beach. “I don’t think now is the time to debate those things,” White House Homeland Security advisor Tom Bossert told reporters in the midst of Hurricane Harvey. But Bossert has it wrong. Because we tend to pay attention to catastrophes only when they happen, it behooves us in those moments to fix broken policy before the next one hits. Make Harvey and Irma our last blank checks, and from here on out, have people pay their own freight for living dangerously. It’s time we separated our disaster policy from Shinola. THEIR VIEW When you’re too old to find work Terri had been laid off recently when her company decided to downsize, and she Llana was having trouble Gershon and Noah finding a Berlatsky new job. “It’s Contributing all about columnists adaptability, ability to learn new things and thrive with change, and being able to work in this dynamic, constantly changing environment with lots of opportunity for growth,” she said. Terms like “adaptability” tend to be code for “fresh out of school,” which Terri understood. She started dying her hair so that her LinkedIn profile photo would look younger. Terri was one of many workers Ilana interviewed from 2013 to 2014 in the Bay Area. When Ilana attended workshops on jobhunting, they were filled with job seekers over 45. People explained that it had been relatively easy to find steady work until they hit their mid-40s or early 50s, at which point they experienced longer and longer stretches of unemployment between jobs. Indeed, an AARP survey in 2012 found that 64 percent of workers said that they had experienced age discrimination or seen examples of age discrimination in the workplace. And one recent research study found that employers were less likely to call back older applicants — especially older women. Such discrimination may stem in part from a dramatic change in how companies understand work. In the ’60s or ’70s, workers weren’t necessarily supposed to be flexible or adaptable or individual. They had skills, and employers paid them to use those skills. Since the turn of the millennium, though, prospective employees have been encouraged to think of themselves as businesses; each person is supposed to be a CEO of me. Rather than offering a particular skill, employees are supposed to offer temporary and dynamic solutions for a business’ market-specific problems. Hiring managers, in this environment, tend to look for certain fashionable qualities that are supposed to indicate an entrepreneurial personality, including “energy.” And on a conscious or unconscious level, many don’t believe that older workers fit that profile. Older workers may be considered unwilling to change, or unwilling to do certain kinds of work because of their experience — regardless of what the workers are actually like. Or hiring managers may assume that an older applicant will want too much money. In theory, age shouldn’t be a detriment if employers are looking for flexibility and individuality. Older workers have more experience and perhaps more varied skill sets as well. Besides, as job tenures become shorter, age at start date should matter less than ever: If you’re hiring someone who will only be around for two to five years, it shouldn’t make a difference whether she’s 20 or 55. She won’t stick around for a lifetime (adding value or, conversely, drawing down benefits) in either case. But a focus on ineffable qualities, like energy, gives employers a great deal of latitude to indulge unspoken prejudices and biases. When you hire not for skills, but for the right kind of personality, you often end up excluding certain groups — including older workers. If businesses want to reduce those biases, they could rethink their approach to job descriptions: Fewer buzzwords, more specific responsibilities. Less “adaptability,” more — what will the new employee actually do at her desk all day? That goes both for public job ads and internal discussions about human resources requirements. Job seekers have limited leverage and resources; a job seeker is not really a business, with a business’ resources for changing its product. The claim that everything is changing is often just a way for businesses to avoid confronting the ways in which biases and prejudices shape the workforce.

TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Wednesday, Sept. 20, the 263rd day of 2017. There are 102 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On September 20, 1967, the Cunard liner RMS Queen Elizabeth 2 was christened by Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II in Clydebank, Scotland. On this date: In 1519, Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan and his crew set out from Spain on five ships to find a western passage to the Spice Islands. (Magellan was killed enroute, but one of his ships eventually circled the world.) In 1870, Italian troops took control of the Papal States, leading to the unification of Italy. In 1884, the National Equal Rights Party was formed during a convention of suffragists in San Francisco; the convention nominated Belva Ann Bennett Lockwood for president. In 1911, the British liner RMS Olympic collided with the Royal Navy cruiser HMS Hawke off the Isle of Wight; although seriously damaged, the Olympic was able to return to Southampton under its own power. In 1947, former New York City Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia died at age 64. In 1957, Finnish composer Jean Sibelius, 91, died. The police drama “M Squad,” starring Lee Marvin, premiered on NBC-TV. In 1958, Martin Luther King Jr. was seriously wounded during a book signing at a New York City department store when he was stabbed in the chest by Izola Curry. (Curry was later found mentally THOUGHT FOR TODAY “History must stay open, it is all humanity.” — William Carlos Williams, American author and poet (1883-1963) incompetent; she died at a Queens, New York, nursing home in 2015 at age 98.) In 1962, James Meredith, a black student, was blocked from enrolling at the University of Mississippi by Democratic Gov. Ross R. Barnett. (Meredith was later admitted.) In 1973, in their socalled “battle of the sexes,” tennis star Billie Jean King defeated Bobby Riggs in straight sets, 6-4, 6-3, 6-3, at the Houston Astrodome. Singer-songwriter Jim Croce, 30, died in a plane crash near Natchitoches, Louisiana. In 1984, a suicide car bomber attacked the U.S. Embassy annex in north Beirut, killing at least 14 people, including two Americans and 12 Lebanese. The family sitcoms “The Cosby Show” and “Who’s the Boss?” premiered on NBC and ABC, respectively. In 1999, Lawrence Russell Brewer became the second white supremacist to be convicted in the dragging death of James Byrd Jr. in Jasper, Texas. (Brewer was executed on September 21, 2011.) Raisa Gorbachev, wife of the last Soviet leader, Mikhail Gorbachev, died at a German hospital after a battle with leukemia; she was 67. �NEWS/WEATHER Daily Sentinel Wednesday, September 20, 2017 5 MEIGS CALENDAR OF EVENTS Editor’s Note: The Daily Sentinel appreciates your input to the community calendar.

MASON, W.Va. — When Baylee Grueser got behind the serving line, the Lady Tornadoes got going on Monday night. That’s because Grueser served up six aces as part of several service points, and spearheaded visiting Southern to a 25-11, 19-25, 25-15 and 25-9 Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division volleyball victory over Wahama at Gary Clark Court. Aside from the Tornadoes’ trip-up in game two, in which they let an 8-3 lead evaporate into a 25-19 loss, Southern scored almost at will against the White Falcons —collecting 33 kills and forcing Wahama into multiple hitting and attack errors. With the win, the Tornadoes’ tally now stands at 4-8 — and an even 3-3 in the TVC Hocking. The White Falcons, despite winning only their fourth division set all season, fell to 2-5 — and 1-5 in the league. Baylee Wolfe paced the Tornadoes’ net attack with 15 kills, as the White Falcons finished with just 10 as an entire team. While Wahama did record 13 aces, most of them were sporadic outside of the second set. The White Falcons — on a pair of attack errors — did lead 2-0 in the opening game, but Southern scored 15 unanswered points, as Grueser was serving all throughout. Wahama had stretches of two more and three more points twice to trim the deficits to 15-4, 19-7 and 20-10, but the Tornadoes notched five of the final six markers —including an ace by Marissa Brooker. In the third game, Grueser served for the opening six points, as the White Falcons never got closer than 9-6 on a back-to-back kill and ace by Gracie VanMeter. Southern’s Paige VanMeter mustered six of her eight kills in the third game, as a pair of Phoenix Cleland’s four kills around two from VanMeter opened up a 21-8 advantage. Wahama did rally to within See TORNADOES | 7 Marauders repeat as champions By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com ATHENS, Ohio — It wasn’t as dominant as last year, but it’s still better than anything in this program’s illustrious past.

Coming off of a tournament win over the weekend, the Gallia Academy volleyball team kept rolling on Monday and claimed a non-conference victory in straight games over host Meigs, which has now lost back-to-back matches. The Lady Marauders (6-7) led initially in the opening game, but the Blue Angels (13-0) took the lead at 4-3 and stretched it to as high as nine at 18-9. Meigs cut the GAHS advantage to four points at 19-15, but Gallia Academy scored six of the next seven points, winning Game 1 by a 25-16 final. Meigs led 1-0 and 2-1 in the second game, but the Blue Angels took the lead at 3-2 and never relinquished it on their way to a 25-9 win. Gallia Academy never trailed in the third game, leading by as many as 13 points en route to the sweep-sealing 25-12 win. “Obviously we’re still on a high from Saturday, so that’s a big help,” GAHS head coach Janice Rosier said. “I think our block is starting to get better, we’ve been working on the timing and the setting of the block.

Vinton County was third with 195, while Alexander (203) and Wellston (214) rounded out the four and five positions.

(AP) — Kevin Harvick considered the list of young drivers often suggested as NASCAR’s next big stars and replacements for departed veterans Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart and Dale Earnhardt Jr. He suggested that only one prospect could truly hook a new generation of fans. “NASCAR needs Chase Elliott to win,” Harvick said earlier this summer. “Chase Elliott is the tie to the traditional NASCAR fan. It’s the only shot they’ve got with the traditional NASCAR fan. His dad. The history and heritage of the sport. There isn’t anybody else in the lineup that I can think of.” Elliott hasn’t yet reached Junior-levels of popularity — or even Danica Patrick as she nears the stock car exit ramp — but the 21-yearold Hendrick Motorsports driver just might be the next one to carry the banner as NASCAR’s most popular driver. First, Elliott wants to hold the checkered flag for a victory lap at a Cup race. Elliott had the race of his season at NASCAR’s playoff opener at Chicagoland Speedway over the weekend, matching his career-best finish of second, behind championship favorite Martin Truex Jr. He led 42 laps, the most since he was out in front for 106 at Phoenix where before he faded to 12th. Elliott stayed strong this time and even won the second stage, jumping to sixth in the standings with two races left before the playoff field is cut to 12. Elliott has yet to win a Cup race in 68 career starts and heads to a New Hampshire track where he’s never finished better than 11th in three career starts. The cover of the New Hampshire race program nonetheless shows Elliott and Kyle Larson in sunglasses with the headline, “The Future is Bright: Elliott and Larson to Carry NASCAR Torch.” Larson was fifth at Chicagoland and is second in the standings. Both drivers seem a lock to advance to the second round and from there, anything can happen. NASCAR would surely love a duel between a pair of 20-somethings that could turn into a rivalry for years. For now, Elliott was wishing his No. 24 Chevrolet could have pushed Truex harder down the stretch Sunday. “It would have been great to battle with Martin a little bit more,” Elliott said. “We didn’t have anything for him. From where we’ve been to where we ran today was a major, major step in the right direction” Elliott, a two-time Daytona 500 pole winner, could break through two weeks from now at Dover, where twice he’s finished third. He had two third-place finishes in the first round last year, then sunk in the second when he finished 33rd, 31st and 12th. “I did feel like we peaked about this time last year,” he said. “But this isn’t last year, so it really doesn’t matter.” What does matter is that Elliott is flashing the potential of becoming a future champion. He has been in the Hendrick Motorsports devel- opment program since 2011, when he was a freshman in high school, and won the 2014 championship in what is now the Xfinity Series. Elliott was known in racing long before his first race, the little kid hanging around the race track with his famous dad. Elliott will switch from the No. 24 to the No. 9 next season in a nod to his father, 1988 NASCAR champion Bill Elliott. Bill Elliott won NASCAR’s most popular driver award a whopping 16 times and it’s that link to the past — and excitement for the future — that has drivers like Harvick convinced Chase’s success is key for any type of NASCAR’s needed resurgence. Elliott may still be too young to truly challenge Truex or former champions ahead of him in the standings such as Harvick, Brad Keselowski and Kyle Busch for the title. Seven-time champion Jimmie Johnson, Elliott’s teammate, is hoping to make NASCAR history with an eighth title.

The federal courts don’t have jurisdiction over the complaint filed by former linebacker Chris Spielman, and Spielman hasn’t met a legal burden required in such antitrust lawsuits, the university said in a Monday court filing. Spielman “has not alleged that he sought and was denied a trademark license from Ohio State or that he was in any way precluded from exercising his own intellectual property rights by Ohio State’s contracts,” the university said. The antitrust complaint filed in July targets Ohio State marketing programs and contracts that promote the university using likenesses of athletes. One example is a Honda-sponsored program of 64 banners hung around Ohio Stadium featuring photos of former players. The lawsuit names Ohio State and talent management giant IMG as defendants and names Honda and Nike as co-conspirators. Nike is targeted for its “Legends of the Scarlet and Gray” vintage jersey licensing program and other apparel contracts with Ohio State. The lawsuit accuses the university and the companies of “unjust and monopolistic behaviors” and asks for compensation above $75,000, as is typical in such complaints. It notes that Ohio State makes millions of dollars from merchandising programs involving former athletes. Honda and Nike have declined to comment. A message was left Tuesday with an attorney representing IMG. Notices PUBLIC NOTICE $600 FREE RENT Ellm View Apts. Rent: $425 & Up Includes: AC, W/D hook up & much more.

The Eastern volleyball team rolled to its fifth straight win and its third consecutive sweep, topping Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division host Belpre on Monday in Washington County. After a trio of lead changes in the opening game, the teams were tied for the fourth time, at 14. From that point, Eastern (7-4, 5-1 TVC Hocking) reeled off seven straight points and claimed 11 of the next 13, taking Game 1 by a 25-16 final. The visiting Lady Eagles never trailed in the Game 2 or Game 3, winning by impressive counts of 25-12 and 25-4. EHS senior Morgan Baer led the Lady Eagle service attack with 14 points. Mackenzie Brooks was next with 10 points and a team-high six aces, while Jenna Chadwell added eight points to the winning cause. Allison Barber and Sidney Cook each had six points and two aces in the triumph, while Morgain Little chipped in with five points. Kelsey Casto finished with four points for the victors, Alexus Metheney added three points, while Alessandra Morella marked one service point. Chadwell led Eastern at the net with seven kills and one block. Cook posted five kills for EHS, Barber added four kills and four blocks, while Brooks had three kills and a team-best six blocks. Little collected three kills, Casto earned one kill, Baer had two blocks and a team-high 17 assists, while Morella added one block. Eastern’s defensive effort was led by Barber and Elayna Bissell with 11 digs apiece. Kaitlyn Richards led the hosts with six service points, followed by Madison French with five. Katie Osborn and Ryleigh Hannah had two points apiece for Belpre, while Sydney Spencer marked one service point. Eastern and Belpre will clash again on Oct. 9 in Tuppers Plains. EHS continues league play at Miller on Tuesday and then back at ‘The Nest’ to host Trimble on Thursday. Alex Hawley can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 2100. Bengals return with 0-2 mark, new OC CINCINNATI (AP) — Andy Dalton thought there might be some changes after two horrid games on offense. He was surprised that they started at the top. A few hours after its 13-9 loss to Houston on Thursday night, Cincinnati fired offensive coordinator Ken Zampese and promoted receivers coach Bill Lazor. Players were off over the weekend, so their first chance to work out with the rearranged coaching staff was Monday afternoon. Dalton said there were some subtle changes. Any notable changes in the game plan won’t be known for a few more days. “When somebody new is in, they have their own twist on things, a different spin on things,” Dalton said. “So there were some things that were exactly the same as we’d done and some things that were a little different.” A lot needs to change for Cincinnati to salvage its season. The Bengals are the first team since the 1939 Eagles to open with a pair of home games and fail to get a touchdown. A loss Sunday at Green Bay Frank Victores | AP Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton speaks during a news conference Friday after an NFL football game against the Houston Texans in Cincinnati. The Texans won 13-9. (1-1) would leave them 0-3 for the first time since 2008 , when they went 4-11-1. The Bengals have opened a season with three straight losses 13 times in their history, including twice under coach Marvin Lewis. They’ve never finished with a winning record after an 0-3 start. A loss in Green Bay would leave them with long odds in Lewis’ final season on his contract. “No magic, no special things here,” cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick said. “We’ve got to start clicking.” After failing to get a touchdown in 25 possessions to open the season, Dalton figured there might be some changes. He didn’t expect a change in coordinators, however. “At that point, we weren’t thinking anything was going to happen,” he said. Dalton has struggled behind a porous offensive line. He threw four interceptions and lost a fumble during a 20-0 loss to the Ravens, finishing with a passer rating of 28.4 — his second-lowest. Dalton was under steady pressure again Thursday night. Lewis has been one of Dalton’s most outspoken defenders, giving no indication he has even considered using backup AJ McCarron in either of the games. McCarron took over when Dalton broke the thumb on his passing hand in 2015 and led them the rest of the way into the playoffs. He had them in position to win a first-round game against Pittsburgh before Vontaze Burfict’s hit on Antonio Brown helped the Steelers pull it out in the closing seconds. McCarron has heard fans calling for a change. “Listen, I think I’m a great quarterback and I think he’s an unbelievable quarterback,” McCarron said Monday. “I love him to death. But he’s our quarterback. Stop making it into something else. It’s not into something else. Ride with him. Trust the team. Trust the process. And trust what we are trying to do.” Dalton hasn’t paid attention to suggestions to the calls for a different quarterback. “People can come up with a headline all they want, but all that matters is what’s being said in this organization, on this team, and what happens in this locker room,” Dalton said. Although Lazor hasn’t said how the offense might change, he’s likely to put more emphasis on getting the ball to A.J. Green and Tyler Eifert.
