These students are made up of students of Rio Grande Elementary, Green Elementary, Gallia Academy Middle School, River Valley Middle School and Oak Hill Middle School. According to Heather Sola, twirling coach, they have shown that dedication and hard work pay off. The twirlers as a whole have learned 10 routines since July. On average each girl typically learns two to three routines during the entire season. Sola explained that they set a goal and have surpassed it. “Not only have they practiced countless hours over the last few months, but they and their parents have been able to fundraise for part of their expenses thanks to our wonderful community support,” said Sola. “The generosity in our small town is nothing See CONTEST | 7A See TWIRLING | 6A See JOBLESS | 7A Chamber announces youth entrepreneurship contest B SPORTS Sports: 1B-5B, 7B Classifieds: 5B Comics: 6B GALLIPOLIS — Gallia Sheriff’s Office recently purchased two new Ford Explorer Police Interceptor 2017 SUVs as part of efforts to keep up with the ongoing needs of deputies and aging vehicles. ”Every year we try to replace at least a couple (cruisers),” said Gallia Sheriff Matt Champlin. “We’ve done a study for what a (proper) rotation for an agency our size and the amount of miles we’re traveling is.

You’ve seen them. New research finds that heterosexual men are attracted to very attractive women. Evidence collected by wildlife researchers has confirmed that bears really do use the woods as toilets. But some research that corroborates the obvious is exciting because some people refuse to accept the obvious. Which brings me to the work of Dr. Gregory Berns, a neuroscienJonah Goldberg tist at Emory University and the Contributing author of “What It’s Like to Be a Dog.” Berns has, from what I can columnist tell, the best gig in neuroscience. He spends all day taking pictures of dog brains. Don’t worry: He doesn’t remove them. He uses magnetic resonance imaging to study what’s going on in Fido’s head. It’s tougher than it sounds because the dogs have to hold absolutely still for Berns to get a good read. But that’s OK. They got the goodest doggos around, as folks on dog-obsessed Twitter might say, to volunteer. And what did Berns discover? Something that almost every dog owner in the world could have told you: Dogs aren’t faking it when they act like they love you. Because it’s not an act. Berns and his team confirmed this through a host of tests that looked at different centers of the doggie brain and how they responded to different stimuli. In one test they alternated between giving the pooches hot dogs (the food, not Dachshunds) and offering them praise. Looking at the pleasure centers of the dogs’ brains, the researchers found that nearly all the dogs responded to “Who’s a good boy?! You are!” (or whatever they actually said) with at least as much pleasure as when they got a Hebrew National. A fifth of the dogs actually preferred praise to food. Berns concluded that dogs derive as much pleasure from love as from food. As a somewhat obsessed dog guy, I’m the first to concede that a central tenet of doggie philosophy is to reject the whole love-vs.-food paradigm as a false choice. Dogs are committed to the idea that there is no such thing as too much of a good thing. But as almost anyone who has come home to their dog after an extended absence will tell you, dogs don’t go bonkers for missing loved ones solely because they think there’s a meal in it for them. And yet, there are people who argue almost precisely that. There’s what I would call the dumb version and the smart version of that particular school of thought. The dumb version, as the label suggests, is dumb. It can be found in people who say things like, “Dogs just lick you for the salt,” or, “It’s just an animal; you shouldn’t care about its feelings.” The smart version has more merit. Evolutionary psychologists and other scientists label dogs “social parasites” or, in the words of some, “con artists.” They claim that dogs evolved from wolves to exploit our weakness for cuteness. They also note that dogs evolved an ability found almost nowhere else in the animal world: to read human body language and expressions. Indeed, Berns found evidence of this in his MRI studies. Some, rightly, reject the term “parasitism” in favor of “mutualism,” because while dogs certainly benefitted from the warmth of cavemen’s campfires and the tossed scraps from their mastodon kills, they also made important contributions as guard dogs and hunters. Pat Shipman even speculates in “The Invaders: How Humans and Their Dogs Drove Neanderthals to Extinction” that dogs gave us a competitive advantage against our (presumably) hated rivals, the Neanderthals. Dogs — or proto-wolf/dogs — weren’t so much pets as allies in hunting big game, helping us evolve as a cooperative species. I think that’s all true, or at least quite plausible. But what it leaves out is the ingredient missing in almost all discussions of evolved behavior and genetic programming — not just for dogs but for people, too. Dogs obviously evolved to depend on humans, but humans also evolved to depend on dogs. From our genes’ perspective, we love our children to ensure that our DNA lives to see another day. But that’s not how we consciously think about it, nor does that explanation diminish the experience of love or make it any less real. Dog genes may be designed to con us, but the dogs themselves aren’t in on the caper. They just love us, because that’s what dogs do.

THEIR VIEW Magic of old movie houses A couple of columns ago I mentioned coming across a photo of the Gallipolis Theater during the great flood of 1937. My love of old movies spurred me to look at the marquee to check what was playing at the time. The theater housed the original Ariel stage, leading me to envision what kind of movie showcase it had been in its heyday. While working on a production with the Ariel Players in the restored stage and seating area in 1996, I saw some of the arrangement and design allowing for live productions and then the exhibition of movies. The end result of such observations was a newfound appreciation of movie house entertainment, the days of single and double features, a schedule of films that changed twice or some- sic” Palace Theater times three times in Canton, Ohio, a week, Saturday will get into the matinees for kids, Halloween spirit popcorn and candy, by screening the the whole nine famous Frankenyards of the filmic stein movies of the experience in a 1930s and ’40s on downtown setting.

The heritage is still present in these structures, while newspaper ads, promotional materials and photos provide us with a glimpse at their time in the movie business. In 1937 as floodwater receded from the front of the Gallipolis Theater, the marquee informed us it showed the Paramount release “Valiant is the Word for Carrie” starring Gladys George and Harry Carey Sr. The distributor that supplied the Gallipolis with prints of current films must have had a connection with Paramount product, as the Gallipolis showed the horse-racing drama “Salty See KELLY | 6A TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Sunday, Sept. 24, the 267th day of 2017. There are 98 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On September 24, 1717, English author Horace Walpole, 4th Earl of Orford, was born in London. On this date: In 1789, President George Washington signed a Judiciary Act establishing America’s federal court system and creating the post of attorney general. In 1869, thousands of businessmen were ruined in a Wall Street panic known as “Black Friday” after financiers Jay Gould and James Fisk attempted to corner the gold market. In 1890, the president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Wilford Woodruff, wrote a manifesto renouncing the practice of plural marriage, or polygamy. In 1929, Lt. James H. Doolittle guided a Consolidated NY-2 Biplane over Mitchel Field in New York in the first all-instrument flight. THOUGHT FOR TODAY “Men are often capable of greater things than they perform. They are sent into the world with bills of credit, and seldom draw to their full extent.” — Horace Walpole (1717-1797). In 1934, Babe Ruth made his farewell appearance as a player with the New York Yankees in a game against the Boston Red Sox. (The Sox won, 5-0.) In 1948, Mildred Gillars, accused of being Nazi wartime radio propagandist “Axis Sally,” pleaded not guilty in Washington D.C. to charges of treason. (Gillars, later convicted, ended up serving 12 years in prison.) In 1955, President Dwight D. Eisenhower suffered a heart attack while on vacation in Denver. In 1957, the Los Angeles-bound Brooklyn Dodgers played their last game at Ebbets Field, defeating the Pittsburgh Pirates 2-0. In 1960, the USS Enterprise, the first nuclearpowered aircraft carrier, was launched at Newport News, Virginia. “The Howdy Doody Show” ended a nearly 13-year run with its final telecast on NBC. In 1976, former hostage Patricia Hearst was sentenced to seven years in prison for her part in a 1974 bank robbery in San Francisco carried out by the Symbionese Liberation Army. (Hearst was released after 22 months after receiving clemency from President Jimmy Carter.) In 1988, Canadian sprinter Ben Johnson won the men’s 100-meter dash at the Seoul (sohl) Summer Olympics — but he was disqualified three days later for using anabolic steroids. Members of the eastern Massachusetts Episcopal diocese elected Barbara C. Harris the first female bishop in the church’s history. In 1996, the United States and 70 other countries became the first to sign a treaty at the United Nations to end all testing and development of nuclear weapons. (The Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty has yet to enter into force because of the refusal so far of eight nations — including the United States — to ratify it.) Ten years ago: Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (ah-muh-DEE’-neh-zhahd) questioned the official version of the 9/11 attacks and defended the right to cast doubt on the Holocaust in a tense appearance at Columbia University in New York. United Auto Workers walked off the job at General Motors plants in the first nationwide strike during auto contract negotiations since 1976; a tentative pact ended the walkout two days later. The situation comedy “The Big Bang Theory” premiered on CBS.

Ladd and Russell — both of whom died too soon — were Paramount stars of the time. A second feature scheduled for later in the week was a thriller from B movie studio Republic, “The Phantom Speaks,” starring Richard Arlen and Stanley Ridges. Work on The Colony, barely footsteps away from the Gallipolis/Ariel, had begun in 1936 but was delayed by the following winter’s flooding. Upon its grand opening on Nov. 24, 1937, the featured film was “Vogues of 1938,” a Walter Wanger production issued by United Artists. It stars were Warner Baxter and Joan Bennett, who became Mrs. Wanger in 1940. Also prominently featured in the cast was Mischa Auer, whose breakout role as an eccentric artist in 1936’s “My Man Godfrey” catapulted him into an audience favorite for several years. “My Man Godfrey” was produced by Universal Pictures, and it was with Universal that The Colony appears to have been associated. Retired OVP Executive Editor Hobart Wilson Jr. fondly recalled seeing the Universal chapter-play “Overland Mail” starring Lon Chaney Jr., Noah Beery Jr., Helen Parrish and Don Terry on its original run in 1942. An often-seen image of the downtown from a decade later reveals The Colony’s current offering was “Air Cadet” (1951) with Stephen McNally and Gail Russell. The studio was then known as Universal-International. And for completists, the movie playing there on the evening of Dec. 15, 1967, was Universal’s “Rough Night in Jericho,” co-starring Dean Martin and George Peppard. A photo in the offices of Main Street Point Pleasant shows a side view of the State Theater around the time of its early 1940s opening. I noticed the film advertised on the marquee as then showing was “The Panther’s Claw,” a 72-minute murder mystery starring Sidney Blackmer, a stage and screen actor that my dad admired, as the sleuth on the case, and Rick Vallin, who then enjoyed a vogue as a secondary leading man in B movies, as his assistant. When I first saw the photo in 2003, Main Street Director Charles Humphreys asked me if the film was available anywhere. I did know a VHS copy could be obtained from a specialty video company with which I was familiar, but what I didn’t know was that due to “The Panther’s Claw” having been made by a company (Producers Releasing Corp.) that went defunct in 1947, it was in the public domain and numerous DVD copies were in circulation. It can now be found on streaming services. Further research into the actual opening date of the State is necessary, but “The Panther’s Claw” saw its national release on April 17, 1942, making it at least one of the first films to flicker across the State’s screen. The State continued showing movies until 1980 (one of its last offerings being the same year’s “Humanoids from the Deep” with Doug McClure) and reopened as a cinema in 1994. Further digging into newspaper files no doubt will offer more tidbits of local cinema history for those of us who are fascinated by such information. And news of the Sept. 19 death of Giacobbe “Jake” LaMotta reminded me that one of the first films I saw at the Spring Valley Cinema (now Silver Screen Partners VII) in the fall of 1980 was his movie biography “Raging Bull,” featuring Robert DeNiro’s Oscar-winning performance as the conflicted middleweight boxing champion of the 1940s and ’50s. The smaller theaters served their purpose in providing local patrons with a place to go to satisfy their entertainment needs, and it is heartening to see that while film is not the featured source of diversion, the spaces are being used for related activity. And they also serve as reminders of a time before the advent of television when going to the movies a few times a week was not just an indulgence, but a habit — and a good one, too.

While Smith said she felt called to help those impacted by Harvey, there were still obstacles which could have stood in the way of making the trip. “Every excuse I had suddenly disappeared. It told me I needed to go,” said Smith. It was then she made the decision to go. As a member of the Emergency Nurses Association, Smith explained that she received emails stating that help was needed to staff emergency rooms which had been set up in shelters in Texas following Hurricane Harvey. She had also seen posts of her friend Amanda (Musser) Christian who lives in the Victoria, Texas area of the impact of the hurricane. Never having been to Texas, and not having flown through a major airport before, Smith admitted there were nerves, particularly with plane issues before leaving on the trip. Arriving in Houston, Smith and Patey went to the NRG Center, which Smith described as the biggest building she had ever been in. At its maximum, the NRG Center Courtesy photo “You see this group of women? These ladies are among the strongest, most selfless and caring professionals I have ever met. Each one left their own life to travel to Houston to serve others — for free. Could I afford this trip financially? Not at all. None of us could. But what we gained from these 4 days is more precious than anything I’ve done before. The gratitude from the people who lost everything in #hurricaneharvey, the looks in their eyes when you helped them, the hugs and kisses… I will remember this for the rest of my life,” wrote Smith in a Facebook post at the end of her trip. housed 8,500 evacuees. As of last week it was down to 2,300, including around 300 children. There were people of all ages, from newborn to the elderly, as well as pets at the shelter. Inside the shelter was an emergency room, urgent care, eye clinic, dental clinic and much more which provided free services to any of the evacuees who needed them. The emergency room was operated with volunteers, using donated medical supplies. There was a pharmacy on site, as well as CVS and Wal- greens set up outside the center filling needed prescriptions at no cost. The eye clinic was set up by a Houston optometrist who’s office had been flooded. The equipment not impacted by the flooding was moved to the center to conduct exams and provide glasses to the evacuees. Working 12 hour shifts, the ER volunteers saw everything from cold symptoms to chest pains, a woman who was having a stroke and psychiatric issues. At the end of their shifts, police officers would escort them back to their hotel, keeping them safe in the area. Many people had been without their medications since the hurricane hit, leading to some of the issues which were being addressed in the ER. There were also cases of overdoses, as even following a hurricane an area is not immune to the drug epidemic. Smith recalled a police officer bringing a young boy into the ER after he was found crying in a vehicle where his parents had been passed out with drug paraphernalia in the vehicle. “There are some stories that stay with you,” said Smith. On the last day a Vietnam veteran, Frankie, came in to the ER. Frankie’s house trailed had been flooded and destroyed as a result of the hurricane, leading to him being brought to the shelter, explained Smith. Having lost a portion of his hand in the war, he suffered from PTSD and had been without medication for some time following the hurricane. When he was brought in he explained that he did not have anything but had lost the little that he producing industries, at 910,000, increased 3,500 over the month due to gains in construction From page 1A (+1,900) and manufacturing (+1,600).

She sat with him, listened and cried with him before he was transferred to a local hospital to receive further help. “It was so different,” said Smith of volunteering at the shelter ER. “There was no money involved. You were able to just care for people — some of them just needed to talk or a hug. It was about people and doing what you could to help them.” As she sat on the plane at the airport in Atlanta heading back home to Ohio, Smith said her thoughts went back to those she had seen in Houston. “I was relieved to be going home, but so many, like Frankie, didn’t have a home to go back to,” said Smith, holding back tears as she talked. A mother of four (Grant, 19, Cole, 16, Mia, 7, and Adrian, 2), Smith said it was hard to be away from her own children, but that they were part of her motivation to go. “I missed them like crazy, but I also felt like they were learning an important lesson about serving others from me,” said Smith. Asked if she would do in again, Smith did not hesitate to say “yes.” 60735156 Sunday Times-Sentinel �LOCAL/WEATHER 8A Sunday, September 24, 2017 Sunday Times-Sentinel GALLIA, MEIGS BRIEFS Book sale POMEROY — The Friends of the Pomeroy Public Library will host their Fall Book Sale for two days during the first week of October.

BIDWELL, Ohio — Meigs opened up a 32-0 lead in the second period, and for the second year in a row held off a River Valley comeback to post a 45-28 win over the Raiders. The win for the Marauders is the 14th straight over their Gallia County neighbors and is the second win in a row for the maroon and gold this season. Meigs took the opening kickoff and junior Cole Adams appeared to have his second kickoff return for a score in three weeks, but a Marauder penalty took the points off the board. It is also the second time this season that Adams had a kickoff return for a score negated. Less the two minutes later, however, the Marauders took the lead when Lane Cullums went up the middle 44 yards for the score, and Meigs held the early 6-0 lead at the 10:07 mark. On first down, Adams picked off a Patrick Brown pass at the Marauders 47. But, just three plays later, Meigs gave the ball up on a fumble. The Raiders put together a good drive, moving to the Marauder 13, but on third and seven, Brown’s pass to Dustin Barber lost a yard. Colton Gilmore was called on to try a 31-yard field goal and Landon Acree blocked the attempt for the Marauders. Three plays and two Meigs penalties gave Meigs a third and 35 at their own 10. Sophomore Cory Cox hit Weston Baer over the middle, Baer broke a tackle at about the 30, spun out of the grasp of a See ROUT | 3B Tornadoes trounce Belpre, 41-14 By Alex Hawley +2+A6/CĽ+377/.3+73.A/=>L-97 RACINE, Ohio — A great start … and an even better finish. The Southern football team stormed out to a 20-0 lead on Friday night at Roger Lee Adams Memorial Field, before allowing back-to-back scores to Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division guest Belpre. The Tornadoes halted their guest right there, however, scoring 21 unanswered points en route to a 41-14 victory. Southern (4-1, 2-1 TVC Hocking) was on the board less than three minutes into play, as Riley Roush found paydirt on a two-yard run. Just under five minutes after his first scoring run, Roush was in the end zone from four yards out. Belpre (2-3, 2-2) committed its second turnover of the first period with 4:21 left, as SHS sophomore Gage Shuler intercepted a pass and returned it for the touchdown. Andrew Evans made a pair of extra-point kicks in the first and Southern led 20-0 at the end of the stanza. On the second play of the second quarter, the Golden Eagles found paydirt for the first time, as Isaac Tullius broke free for a 35-yard run. After a Tornado fumble, Belpre drove for its second score of the contest, with Logan Adams finding the end zone on an eight-yard run. Bailey Sprague was 2-for-2 on extra-point kicks, as the Orange and Black cut the SHS lead to just six points. Southern lost possession on downs on its next drive, but the Tornado defense forced the Golden Eagle offense into a three-and-out. Belpre’s punt pinned the Purple and Gold back to its own oneyard line, with just 3:19 left in the first half. The Tornadoes needed just three minutes to cover the length of the field, gaining six first downs in the process. With 19 seconds left on the first half clock, Roush scored on a 15-yard run.

Eastern’s lone offensive drive of the third period lasted 2:38 and covered 68 yards in five plays. The final play of the possession was an 18-yard touchdown pass from Durst to Sharp Facemyer, giving EHS a 34-20 advantage with 1:13 left in the stanza. South Gallia covered 45 yards on its next drive, before a holding penalty followed by back-to-back incomplete passes gave possession back to EHS. The Eagles drove the final nail in the coffin with a 10-play, 45-yard scoring drive that was capped off by a nineyard scoring pass from Durst to Brewer. “I thought we came back in the second half and played hard,” Coach Smith said. “We came up short, but I thought our kids played hard and they fought hard, so I don’t have any complaints.” For the game, Eastern held a 19-to-9 advantage in first downs and a 344-to-149 edge in total offense. EHS outgained the Rebels 229-to-123 on the ground and 115-to-26 in the passing game. The Eagles committed the game’s lone turnover and were penalized five times for a total of 50 yards, while SGHS was flagged six times for a total of 40 yards. Durst — who had 84 yards and one touchdown on 10 carries for Eastern — was 9-of-12 passing for 115 yards with five passes going for touchdowns. “He gave us a great opportunity to win the game,” Coach Newland said of his junior signal caller. “Early on in the season he had a lot of turnovers and he didn’t look great. We talked to him and I said ‘I think you’re trying to be a drop back passer, you’re more of a Baker Mayfieldtype, you’re a backfield football player.’ Now if you’ll notice, he’s running across the field, reversing his field and doing all that stuff.” Brewer led the Eagles with 106 total yards and two scores, combining 18 carries and two receptions. Blaise Facemyer hauled in a teambest four passes and carried the ball three times, totaling 79 yards and one score, while Steven Fitzgerald had 42 total yards on three carries and one grab. Sharp Facemyer finished with two touchdowns and 23 yards on two receptions, while Blake Newland had one carry for 10 yards. Northup completed 4-of9 passes for 26 yards for SGHS, while rushing 16 times for 47 yards and one touchdown. Birtcher had one touchdown and a team-best 65 yards, combining 14 carries and two receptions. A.J. Woodall finished with 24 yards on three carries, while Bryceton Folden chipped in with 13 yards on two catches. Undoubtedly, South Gallia was adversely affected by the absence of its leading rusher for the year, sophomore Jeffrey Sheets, who missed the end of last week’s game and then was reinjured in warmups on Friday. “Jeffrey’s knee has been bothering him anyway, so we tried to make some adjustments, but we were planing on him playing,” Coach Smith said. “Hopefully next week we’ll be a little more prepared with him being out of the lineup. Hopefully next week will be a different story.” Eastern improves to 13-6 all-time against the Rebels and the Eagles are now 6-4 at SGHS.

Paul Boggs | OVP Sports Gallia Academy’s Jacob Campbell (4) tackles Talyn Parker of Portsmouth during Friday night’s Ohio Valley Conference football game in Gallipolis, Ohio. Blue Devils hang on to top Trojans, 36-35 By Paul Boggs pboggs@aimmediamidwest.com GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — Here’s something you haven’t heard — at any point — in the last two football seasons. The Blue Devils have won three games, and are atop the Ohio Valley Conference. But, with another Friday night having passed at historic Memorial Field, the Blue Devils’ fortunes are indeed changing — and the victory bell is ringing. That’s because Gallia Academy is officially in front in the OVC championship chase, as the Blue Devils — in successfully defending a late two-point conversion pass — defeated the visiting Portsmouth Trojans 36-35 in a hot and humid thriller. That’s correct. On a night in which both offenses lit up the scoreboard, it ultimately came down to a Blue Devil defensive play on Portsmouth’s final snap. The Trojans marched a massive 15 plays and 75 yards in seven minutes and 24 seconds, and trimmed their deficit to 36-35 with a 23-yard touchdown pass from Isaac Kelly to D.J. Pearsall with three minutes remaining. The score put Portsmouth in a position to tie with an extra-point kick — or to take the lead with a successful two-point conversion. The Trojans — as head coach Jason Duncan called a timeout — took their chances for going ahead, but the Blue Devils defended the pass attempt, breaking up Kelly’s throw near the back pylon of the end zone. From there, all Gallia Academy needed was one first down and run out the clock, which they accomplished when Jacob Campbell picked up 12 yards on 3rd-downand-7 with under two minutes remaining. On that carry, his 14th to Tornadoes From page 1B hosts into the break ahead 27-14. Southern scored on the opening drive of the second half, as Logan Drummer connected with Dylan Smith for a 35-yard scoring pass. The Tornadoes added the final score of the game with five minutes remaining, when Smith scored on a 14-yard run. Evans made both second half extra-point be exact, Campbell surpassed the century mark in rushing for the game —as he finished with 106 yards and a hat trick of rushing touchdowns along with a 28-yard receiving TD. With the physically and emotionally exhausting win, the Blue Devils raised their record to 3-2, captured their second consecutive victory — and joined Fairland and Coal Grove as the only other 2-0 clubs in the OVC. GAHS now owns an 18-111 all-time record over its former Southeastern Ohio Athletic League rival, as the Blue Devils have now won six of their last seven meetings with the Trojans. But Friday night’s triumph took on much more meaning than most —if not all —of the Blue Devils’ decade-long battles (2006 to 2014) with the Trojans in the SEOAL. “This was one of those games that, as a coach, you’re extremely exhausted. But to see our young men play football the way they did tonight and make plays to get the win, I’m very proud. Our kids just refuse to lose right now,” said a drained Gallia Academy head coach Alex Penrod. “It was physical out there on both sides of the ball for all 48 minutes. Both offenses were on tonight, and fortunately for us, it came down to a stop at the end of the game. It doesn’t come down to game-planning, it comes down to those kids making a football play for this community.” That particular play started with a Trojan timeout, as essentially everybody inside Memorial Field knew that a two-point attempt was coming. Portsmouth (2-3, 1-1 OVC) put standout sophomore running back Talyn Parker to the far right, and brought him in motion to the left as if to run a jet-sweep play. But Parker didn’t get the ball, and Kelly’s aerial eventually was broken up by the Blue Devil secondary. It can easily be argued it was the Blue Devils’ most important defensive play of the entire season. “It really comes down to our young men playing football the way they have learned the last four months to play football,” said Penrod. “They showed us a different formation and wrinkle there, saw the jet motion with (Talyn) Parker and attacked. Our kids just made a football play.” Actually, both squads made plenty of plays on Friday night — primarily offensively. In addition to his 28-yard scoring reception, Campbell ripped off a 43-yard scamper just three minutes into the third quarter, giving Gallia Academy a short-lived 30-21 advantage after Justin McClelland completed a twopoint pass of his own to Cade Roberts. The lead was short-lived because Kelly came right back with a 62-yard touchdown run — a mere 22 seconds later. After Parker ran in the twopoint conversion, the Trojans trailed for the third time in the game by a single point at 30-29. But the Blue Devils quickly answered to make it a touchdown deficit (36-29) again, as the quarterback McClelland —who completed 10-of-15 passes for 190 yards — moved them 80 yards in nine plays and in only four minutes. After a difficult 36-yard completion to Caleb Henry got Gallia Academy to near midfield, McClelland’s connection to Cade Roberts for another 24 put the Blue and White inside the red zone at the Portsmouth 3-yard line. Campbell capped off the drive with his third TD —a 3-yard burst at the 4:41 mark. However, Gallia Academy failed with the two-point conversion which could have made it 38-29, as the 36-29 tries to seal the 41-14 triumph. For the game, Southern held a 370-to-148 advantage in total offense, including 267to-121 on the ground. SHS earned 21 first downs, nine more than BHS. The Tornadoes won the turnover battle by a 3-2 count, while the Golden Eagles failed to reach Southern’s side of the field after halftime. The Tornadoes were penalized 10 times for a total of 110 yards, while BHS was flagged eight times for 65 yards. Roush led the Purple and Gold on offense with 166 yards and three scores on 25 carries. Smith finished with 103 yards and one touchdown on two receptions to go with 75 yards and one score on 13 carries. Logan Drummer — who ran for 14 yards on two attempts — completed 2-of-7 passes for 103 yards and one score. Gage Barrett gained eight yards on a pair of carries, while Shuler added four yards on one try. Simoniette led Belpre with 50 yards on the ground, to go with a 5-of-10 passing for 27 cushion spanned the next 13 minutes and 37 seconds. In addition to Campbell’s 106 yards on 14 totes, McClelland carried 14 times for 78 yards — and opened the scoring just 36 seconds in with a 25-yard dash to make it 6-0. Boo Pullins added 40 yards on eight attempts, as five different Devils — Henry (39 yards), Campbell (33 yards), Roberts (25 yards), Garrett Burns (67 yards) and John Stout (26 yards) — had two catches apiece. “Our offensive staff called an excellent football game and made great adjustments,” said Penrod. McClelland’s counterpart Kelly erupted for 209 yards and two touchdowns on 18 rushes, as he completed half of his 10 passes for 76 yards — including an initial 23-yard strike to Deante Parker that put Portsmouth ahead 7-6 at the 5:18 mark of the first quarter. Joel Bowling booted the extra-point kick, but missed his next one just four minutes and six seconds later, following Talyn Parker’s 5-yard run that made it 13-6. Parker, who returned to the Trojan lineup for the first time since suffering a weekone injury, posted 24 carries for 108 yards — but only tallied 10 touches for 39 yards in the entire second half. “We saw some things they were doing with him (Parker), so we made some ingame adjustments and took some things away where they were getting the big plays,” said Penrod. “They were still getting yardage here and there, but we started minimizing their big plays.” None bigger, of course, than the two-point play at the end. The Blue Devils return to OVC action next Friday night — when they travel to face Fairland.

Three plays later, Zach Bartrum went 86 yards only to be caught by a Raider defender who had the angle on him at the Raider two. Two plays later, Bartrum went over from the one and freshman Jake Kennedy added the extra points for a 19-0 Meigs lead. The Marauders forced a three and out, another Marauder penalty negated a good Bartrum return and placed the ball at the Meigs 15. The Marauders went on a 13-play, 85-yard drive with Cullums going the final 15 for the score. Once again, Kennedy added the extra points and a 26-0 Marauder lead with 2:08 left. Another three and out by the Raiders gave Meigs the ball at their own 40 with 2:08 left in the half. Cox went 4-for-6 in the drive and hit Bartrum with a pass from 22 yards out for the score and a 32-0 Meigs lead with 43 seconds left. But, to the Raiders credit, they didn’t fold. After a 21-yard kickoff return by Josh Farmer gave the Raiders good field position, Brown went to the air completing two in a row, the last one to Jarret McCarley from 42 yards out and the score on the last play of the half to make it a 32-6 contest. The Raiders started to make things interesting in the third period. After receiving the second half kickoff, it took just three plays for the Raiders to score. Brown once again found McCarley from 42 yards out and a score. Colton Gilmore made it 31-13 with 10:48 left in the third period. A suddenly fired up Raider defense held Meigs to another three and out. Meigs went for the fake punt, but Bartrum’s pass to Baer was low and the Raiders were in business at the Meigs 35. Seven plays later, Cole Young took it in from a yard out. Gilmore made the extra points and suddenly it was 32-20 in favor of Meigs with 7:04 left in the period.

But Baer’s biggest responsibility on Thursday was as the squad’s setter, for she amassed 30 assists, as Ally Barber boasted a match-high 16 kills. Morgain Little landed seven kills, as Jenna Chadwell chipped in five and Mackenzie Brooks another four. Little served up four aces. The Eagles’ libero, Elayna Bissell, accounted for 24 digs — as Barber collected 17 and Sydney Sanders dug up 15. Barber also added five solo blocks, as Brooks and Baer both had four while Little and Sidney Cook chipped in with two apiece. For the Lady Tomcats, Kym Williams and Laura York tallied 11 kills each, as Macinsey Cooper chalked up eight. Taya Lackey racked up a match-high 27 assists, as Skylar Moore led in service points with a dozen. The Tomcats raced out to a 5-0 advantage to begin the match, thanks to four consecutive Eagle errors and a kill by Williams.

But once again the Raiders came right back with a 20-play drive. The Raiders drove to the Meigs five and picked up a first down. A dead ball personal foul, however, followed by an unsportsmanlike conduct on the Raiders moved the ball to the Marauder 31. Four straight plays netted four yards and Meigs took over on downs. On third play, Cox once again hit his classmate Baer who broke it for 72 yards to the Raider seven. Two plays later, Bartrum scored from 10 yards out. Kennedy made it a 45-20 contest with just 1:54 left. Once again the Raiders came back. On first down, Brown hit Layne Fitch from 29 yards, and one play later Brown hit McCarley from 39 yards and the score. Brown added the extra points to close out the scoring with 1:21 left and a 45-28 Marauder win. The Marauder offense rolled up 608 yards on the night, 301 yards on the ground and 3-7 in the air. Cory Cox, who began the season as a third team quarterback, was 13 of 20 in the air for 307 yards and three scores.

AHS took its first lead of Game 2 at 26-25 and then scored the next point to move ahead 2-0 in the match. After five lead changes and 11 ties in Game 3, the Lady Spartans made it to match-point with a four-point lead. Meigs regained the service and was within three points at 24-21. Then, MHS junior Marissa Noble rattled off five straight service points to give the hosts a 26-24 win and force a fourth game.

The Lady Marauders led by as many as seven points on their way to the 25-20 victory, which evened the match at two games apiece. Meigs claimed the first point of the deciding fifth game, but Alexander claimed the next nine points and eventually won the finale by a 15-6 margin.

Rio women fall to No. 20 Marian By Randy Payton For Ohio Valley Publishing INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — Paige Newton scored a pair of goals to lead 20th-ranked Marian University past the University of Rio Grande, 3-0, Wednesday night, in non-conference women’s soccer action at St. Vincent Field. The Knights improved to 6-2 with the victory, while also earning their fifth shutout of the season. Rio Grande slipped to 1-5 overall with its fourth straight loss. Marian netted what proved to be the only goal it would need just over 17 minutes into the match when Brittney Zendejas scored on a scramble for a loose ball following a corner kick opportunity. Newton then added the first of her two markers with 11:08 left before the intermission when she eluded Rio junior goal keeper Andrea Vera (Quito, Ecuador) and fired a shot which deflected off the post and into the goal for a 2-0 advantage. That’s how things stayed until Newton finished off the scoring with a header off a corner kick try by Courtney Denney with 21:28 left to play. The Knights finished with a 19-8 edge in shots - including 11-3 in the second half - and had a 12-5 advantage in shots on goal. The hosts also had a 10-0 cushion in corner kick chances. Vera finished with nine saves in a losing cause for the RedStorm. Brenna Malatestinic stopped five shots in the win for Marian. Rio Grande returns to action on Saturday when it hosts Goshen (Ind.) College in a nonconference game at Evan E. Davis Field. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. Randy Payton is the Sports Information Director at the University of Rio Grande.

That’s because Fairland — by a mere six strokes over two-time defending champion Gallia Academy — captured the 2017 Ohio Valley Conference golf championship on Thursday, which was contested at the Portsmouth Elks Golf Course. Fairland fired a team total of 356, as the young Blue Devils dialed up a group score of 362. Coal Grove and Rock Hill tied for third with a 374, while Chesapeake chalked up a 378 for fifth place. The top four scores counted towards the team total, as those first five clubs all sported the maximum six players apiece. Portsmouth (416) and Ironton (462) fielded four golfers each, while South Point (478) played with five. For the Blue Devils, they attempted to make it a three-peat of OVC championships — as the 2017 season was in fact their third in the eightteam league. Gallia Academy’s only senior — Kaden Thomas — tallied an 81 to pace the squad. He was followed by freshman Cooper Davis with a 91 and sophomore Reece Thomas with a 93, as the Thomas brothers — along with Cooper — all earned all-tournament team accolades. The final counting card for the Blue Devils was by sophomore Hobie Graham with a 97. Nick Mayes with a 107 and Wyatt Sipple with a 112 were the noncounting 18-hole scores for GAHS. For Fairland, all four of its counting scores also broke 98, including the 90 by girls medalist Hannah Shrout. The Dragons did have better balance than the Blue Devils, as Reece Bellville shot an 84, Clayton Thomas posted an 86, and Mason Manns managed a 96. Bellville, Thomas and Shrout joined the Gallia Academy threesome on the all-tournament team. Their two non-counting scores were an even 100 by Mikhail Auxier and a 102 by Connor Franklin. Logan Reed of Rock Hill, with a smooth 73, captured match medalist honors and paced the alltournament squad. Rounding out the alltournament unit were Trevor Deere of Coal Grove with an 82, William Sturgill of Portsmouth with an 83, Jacob Lemley of Chesapeake with an 84, and Brandon Blair of Chesapeake with a 94. Only Ironton and South Point failed to have at least one representative make All-OVC. The Blue Devils will return to the Portsmouth area on Tuesday, when they compete in the Division II sectional tournament at Shawnee Golf Course.

Rock Hill, at 4-0-1, maintains the OVC lead. The Blue Devils’ other draw was a non-league scoreless outcome in the rain at Point Pleasant. Gallia Academy got its goal on Thursday in the opening half — when junior Justin Day scored with exactly four-and-ahalf minutes remaining. However, that 1-0 advantage didn’t last long, as the Dragons got the equalizer on a Tyler Webb penalty kick with only four minutes and seven seconds gone by in the second half. The 1-1 score held up the rest of the way, despite the Dragons outshooting the Blue Devils by a commanding count of 15-6. Of those 15 shots, eight were on goal — as GAHS senior goalkeeper Pierce Wilcoxon made seven saves, including his final stop in the final minute. Day took four shots for Gallia Academy, as Andrew Toler and Tristan Posley posted a single shot apiece. Four of the Blue Devils’ six shots were on goal. Fairland also held a 5-2 advantage in corner kicks, as Morgan Stanley attempted both for Gallia Academy. Trenton Baumgard took four for the Dragons, with Devon Lucas kicking the other. Webb, Baumgard and Clayton Bloss all attempted three shots for the Dragons. Gallia Academy returned to the road, and returned to non-league action, on Saturday at Circleville.

Davis For Ohio Valley Publishing MASON, W.Va. — There is nothing sweeter than to win at home on Homecoming Night. That is what the Wahama White Falcons did while securing their first win of the season Friday night with a 28-8 decision over the visiting Federal Hocking Lancers in a critical Week 5 TVC Hocking contest at Butchel Stadium. Federal Hocking (0-5, 0-4 TVC Hocking) received the opening kickoff and had a short field advantage in their opening drive starting on Wahama’s own 43-yard line. With 7:45 remaining in the first quarter, Hunter Smith rushed for a oneyard touchdown — and a successful two-point conversion pass from Smith to Braden Gould gave the Lancers an 8-0 lead. Wahama (1-4, 1-3 TVC Hocking) used its running attack and marched the ball down the field. With 4:10 left in the first Wahama a solid 28-8 win on Homecoming Night. After the game, WHS coach Dave Barr was thrilled to get the proverbial monkey off his program’s back — but he was even more thrilled that his troops could finally leave the field in a positive manner. “I’m just really proud and happy for our seniors and our football team, more than anything else,” Barr said. “We’ve played well in spots this season, but we’ve also had a little bit of misfortune in playing against some pretty Bryan Walters | OVP Sports good teams in the first Members of the Wahama football team let out a celebratory yell following Coach Dave Barr’s four weeks.
