W.Va. pipeline
jobs only ‘potential’
By Mandee Young
For Ohio Valley Publishing

CHARLESTON, W.Va. — Ask a West Virginian
what the state needs in 2016 and you can be fairly
sure “jobs” will be near the top of the list.
Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin recently spoke about
West Virginia’s achievements in 2015 and its
needs in 2016. The governor noted the state had
“… created a variety of new programs to help put
West Virginians back to work and on the path
toward a bright and successful future.”
West Virginia’s oil and natural gas industry
ofﬁcials applaud Tomblin’s efforts to re-train and
develop the workforce in the state; however, they
say the immediate key to creating new jobs in
West Virginia is action by the federal government.
Currently, preliminary or ﬁnal plans for the
construction of six pipelines, much of the work
in West Virginia, have been ﬁled with the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), the
federal body responsible for oversight of interstate
pipeline projects. All are awaiting approval. The
pipelines projects seeking approval include Rover,
Mountain Valley, WB Xpress, Leach Xpress,
Mountaineer Xpress, and the Atlantic Coast and
Supply Header Project.
Corky DeMarco, executive director of the
West Virginia Oil and Natural Gas Association
(WVONGA), said, “They should have approved
some of them already. They’ve been sitting over at
FERC long enough.”
In 2014, President Barack Obama nominated
Norman C. Bay to chair FERC. Since Bay’s
appointment, DeMarco noted, no new pipeline has
been approved.
The pipelines are controversial with opposition
from some local property owners, environmental
groups and the U.S. Forest Service among others.
Questions about need, water quality safety,
proposed routes and other issues have to be
considered and resolved.
What’s not as debatable, according to DeMarco,
is the economic beneﬁt and jobs related to the
pipeline construction, if the plans are approved.
If the six pipelines currently under consideration
were approved, the construction related impact in
West Virginia would total $5.7 billion, DeMarco
said, adding that the six projects combined would
generate 18,035 jobs during construction. The
estimated capital investment property taxes would
equal $61.1 million.
While traditional positions such as welders,
welders’ helpers, pipeline integrity workers and
drivers to transport materials will be integral,
administrative positions such as accountants and
payroll clerks will be just as essential.
“We need accountants, environmental engineers
and environmental scientists, all of the STEM
(science, technology, engineering and math)
programs, and administrative positions, payroll
and insurance,” DeMarco said.
Based on the recent West Virginia Economic
Outlook generated by West Virginia University,
the jobs would be a welcome development in the
Mountain State, which has experienced a rather
bleak employment outlook for the past few years.
After consistent and healthy job growth
between 2010 and mid-2012, the state has seen
employment decline for much of the last three
years, with a cumulative loss of nearly 8,000 jobs,
the report states. After generally trending lower
between 2010 and 2014, the state’s unemployment
rate has surged over the ﬁrst half of 2015 and
stood at 7.5 percent as of July. West Virginia’s
jobless rate is at its highest level in more than two
years.
DeMarco said approval of any of the pipelines
plans would have an immediate impact on
employment in the state.

Schools ease athlete penalties for marijuana
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP)
— At least one-third of
the Power Five conference schools are not punishing athletes as harshly
as they were 10 years ago
for testing positive for
marijuana and other socalled recreational drugs,
according to an investigation by The Associated
Press.
The NCAA last year cut
in half the penalty for athletes who fail screenings
for substances like marijuana at its championship events, and its chief
medical ofﬁcer is pushing
for college sports’ governing body to get out of
the business of testing
for rec drugs altogether.
The AP found that some
of the nation’s biggest
universities, from Oregon
to Auburn, have already
eased their punishments
as society’s views on marijuana use have changed.
Marijuana use among
U.S. adults has doubled
over a decade, according
to government surveys,
and recreational use is
now legal in four states.
The AP analyzed
policies for 57 of the 65
schools in the Southeastern, Atlantic Coast, Big
12, Big Ten and Pac-12
conferences, plus Notre
Dame.
Of the 57 schools, 23
since 2005 have either
reduced penalties or
allowed an athlete to
test positive more times
before being suspended
or dismissed. Ten schools
have separate, less stringent policies addressing
only marijuana infractions.
In the Pac-12, ﬁve
schools do not suspend
athletes for as long as
they once did. At Utah,
for example, a third
failed test used to mean
dismissal; now it’s a halfseason suspension.
“It’s a moving target,
and we have to ﬁnd that

balance between being
too punitive and not punitive enough, and making
sure that we help people
that have a problem,”
Utah athletic director
Chris Hill said.
Recreational use of pot
is allowed for adults in
Oregon and Washington
but is against the rules at
Pac-12 schools in those
states. At Oregon, an athlete doesn’t lose playing
time until a third failed
test; at Oregon State, a
third failed test used to
mean dismissal, but athletes are now given one
more chance.
At Washington, a third
failed test used to be a
one-year suspension but
is now just 30 days.
“The change was
intended to make the policy more rehabilitative,”
Washington spokesman
Carter Henderson said.
Northwestern, Penn
State, Pittsburgh, Southern California, Syracuse,
Vanderbilt and Wake
Forest did not provide
copies of their drug
policies despite repeated
requests, citing privacy
laws. Stanford does not
test its athletes. Illinois
has a separate pot policy
that has become more
strict but isn’t as punitive
as its policy for drugs like
cocaine or heroin.
The Big Ten and Big 12
are the only Power Five
conferences that do their
own testing in addition
to the testing done by
the schools and NCAA.
Those two conferences
punish athletes who test
positive for performanceenhancing drugs. The Big
12 is the only conference
that screens for recreational drugs, but it does
not sanction athletes who
test positive. Instead, the
Big 12 notiﬁes the school
of a positive test and
leaves any discipline to
the school.
Alcohol remains by

far the most abused
substance on college
campuses, with marijuana
ranking second. In the
most recent NCAA survey of athletes (2013),
70.9 percent of Division I
football players acknowledged using alcohol in the
previous 12 months and
19.3 percent acknowledged using marijuana or
synthetic marijuana. In
men’s basketball, reported
use was 58.1 percent for
alcohol and 11.3 percent
for marijuana/synthetic
marijuana.
While schools come
down hard on athletes
caught using performance-enhancing drugs
— a ﬁrst positive test
typically results in a oneyear suspension — they
are much less punitive for
marijuana and other socalled street drugs.
Athletes who test positive a ﬁrst time typically
receive counseling but
lose no playing time.
Also, athletes who come
forward and acknowledge
drug use before they are
tested are offered help
under “safe harbor” programs. Second positive
tests typically result in
some lost playing time.
Suspensions generally
start kicking in after a
second positive, though
Kansas, Mississippi,
Purdue and Oregon don’t
mandate a suspension
until a third offense.
Football coach Mike
Riley, in his ﬁrst year at
Nebraska after 14 years

coaching at Oregon State,
said he becomes suspicious marijuana is being
used when he notices a
player who misses or is
late for meetings or is not
fully engaged on and off
the ﬁeld.
“Through my years in
coaching, I can almost
pick out the guys who
have a marijuana problem,” Riley said. “You
give me three weeks with
a team and, if you’ve got
ﬁve guys, I could get
three or four of them.”
Former Nebraska defensive end Randy Gregory
failed a marijuana test at
the NFL scouting combine last February and
later publicly acknowledged his use in college.
Once considered a high
ﬁrst-round draft pick, he
wasn’t selected until late
in the second round by
Dallas.
Gregory said he and
his Nebraska teammates
didn’t worry a lot about
being tested. Nebraska,
under a policy effective
since September 2014,
suspends an athlete for
10 percent of his or her
sport’s season after a second failed drug test and
20 percent after a third
failed test. A fourth failed
test results in dismissal.
The previous policy, in
place when Gregory initially enrolled, didn’t take
away playing time until a
third failed test.
“I’m not saying that
we were kind of like
invincible,” said Gregory,

who played under former
Huskers coach Bo Pelini.
“But they don’t make it
a big deal. … They didn’t
really test you unless you
had failed one and then
after that, they test you
weekly almost.”
Dr. Lonnie Albers,
Nebraska’s associate athletic director for athletic
medicine, declined an
interview request through
the sports information
department.
In addition to school
testing for a wide range
of drugs, Gregory and his
teammates were subject
to random screening for
PEDs by the Big Ten and
NCAA.
“Did I know folks that
were abusing it? Yeah, on
different ends of the spectrum. I think you know
what I mean, smoking
and other performanceenhancing drugs,”
Gregory said. “Sometimes guys get lucky. The
Big Ten comes in, we’re
testing steroids, might
be a guy on steroids but
he may say, ‘You know
what, I don’t think I’ll be
one of the 12 guys that
they’re testing out of the
100-and-how-many guys
we have on the team.’
And they’ll get lucky and
not get tested. It’s kind of
hit or miss, I think.”
The NCAA has been
testing for marijuana
and other street drugs
at championship events
since the 1980s. The
NCAA suspends athletes
for a full season for a

failed PED test. Starting
in August 2014, however,
the penalty for failing an
NCAA street-drug test
was reduced from a suspension of one full season
to a half season.
NCAA medical chief
Dr. Brian Hainline said
his organization should
concentrate on busting
athletes who use PEDs
and leave it to the schools
to deal with the rest, preferably through treatment
rather than punishment.
“The most important
thing that I can’t emphasize enough is that as
a society, we have to
make a clear distinction
between recreational drug
use and cheating,” Hainline said. “I really believe
that they require two different approaches. One is
more nuanced, and one is
hard core.”
What about marijuana
being against the law in
most states?
“If we’re going to test
at championship events
for things that are illegal,
then we shouldn’t just
test for pot,” Hainline
said. “If there are any
kids under the age of 18
smoking cigarettes, we
should test for that. We
certainly should be testing for alcohol for everyone under the age of 21.
Then we ask ourselves,
‘Where does the moral
authority stop?’ I’m all for
moral authority as long
as there is a philosophical
consistency to it.”

Carson staffers quit,
question readiness
By Bill Barrow
and Thomas Beaumont
Associated Press

DES MOINES, Iowa — Several top aides to
Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson
resigned on Thursday, citing frustration with the
inﬂuence of the retired neurosurgeon’s business
manager and questioning his readiness for the White
House.
Barry Bennett and Doug Watts, both seasoned
political operatives, stepped down with less than ﬁve
weeks before voters in Iowa begin the nominating
process with the state’s Feb. 1 caucuses.
Bennett was Carson’s campaign manager. Watts
was communications director. But Bennett said
Carson’s longtime business manager, Armstrong
Williams, is the adviser who has Carson’s ear, even
though Williams does not have a formal role in the
campaign.
Carson is “one of the smartest men I’ve ever
worked for,” Bennett said, but added that he believes
Carson has become Williams’ “script reader.”
Bennett said that made it difﬁcult to advise Carson
and raised questions in his mind about what kind of
president Carson would make if elected.
“You have to surround yourself with good people,”
Bennett said. “And he hasn’t demonstrated that he
can do that. No one wants Armstrong Williams anywhere near the Oval Ofﬁce.”
Williams replied Thursday: “Barry and I agree. I
will be nowhere near the Oval Ofﬁce when Dr. Carson is elected president. I will remain in my private
practice.”
Williams also disputed Bennett’s characterization that his inﬂuence is inappropriate, and said the
departures were more ﬁrings than resignations. “I’m
sure Barry resigned because he wanted total control
and he wasn’t going to have that,” Williams said.
Carson’s campaign released a statement Thursday
describing staff changes as “enhancements” that
“will shift the campaign into higher gear.” Along
with Bennett and Watts, deputy campaign manager
Lisa Coen also left.
Retired Army Major Gen. Robert Dees, who has
been advising Carson on foreign policy and military
affairs, will serve as campaign chairman. Ed Brookover, formerly a senior strategist, will serve as campaign manager.
“I don’t think any one person should have the candidate’s ear,” Williams said. “I think he should listen
to a multitude of advisers, inside the campaign and
outside the campaign.”

Don’t take the gift of time for granted
While we live, few
resources are so precious
as time, and very few are
as badly squandered.
Each of us is given only
so much time on this
planet. We are conceived
and born, and then it is a
straight and unwavering
secession of moments
until we die, and our time
on earth is ﬁnished. Each
moment we are given is
singularly unique, moreso than any snowﬂake,
and when that solitary
moment is gone, it will
never return, and never be
repeated. What we do with
those moments, that precious gift of time that has
been given to us, is entirely
up to us. We can spend
them as we choose, making decisions as to what is
most important, prioritizing, or, as is often the case,
failing to prioritize and
simply allowing the time
we have to glide past us.
Those moments we waste,
we can never get back.
Periodically we are
reminded of the inexorable passage of time. Certain life events, such as
graduation, anniversaries,
or birthdays can bring the
subject momentarily into
view. Likewise, the turning of the year, with an
old one passing away and
a new one beginning, is

doing the will of God,
whether we squandered
it, carelessly letting it
pass by, or worse yet,
whether we misspent it in
selﬁshness and sin.
Jesus once related a
parable of three men
given talents by their (cf.
Matthew 25:14-30). Two
men spent their talents
wisely, while one buried
his talent in the ground,
doing nothing with it.
The talents, or coins, of
the parable, are representative of the opportunities
God has given us to serve
Him. They are representative, in part, of the
God-given gift of time.
The man who buried his
talent, wasting it, in the
end was left with nothing. Those that used their
opportunities wisely,
were well rewarded.
Time is indeed a precious gift. Let us resolve
not to squander it, but
use each day wisely, in
the service of our Creator,
and in love of our fellowman, so that when we
stand before our Maker,
we will hear, “Well done.”

I kicked and

long as I could
I have never been very interested in buying or using
the new media technologies that have come on the
scene in recent years.
For many years, an old typewriter was sufﬁcient
for my writing of sermons and stories. But, when
we moved to Faith Baptist Church in 1998, it was
prevailed upon me to learn and use the computer the
church had for the pastor’s study.
While I did not kick and scream too much about
learning and employing the advantage
of the computer’s word processor
capability, I have kicked and screamed
to keep from getting involved in other
technologies. I resisted urgings from
my boys and peers that I could use
the advantages of the internet, e-mail,
iPhones and the accompanying apps.

But, like the Apostle Paul, I kicked

against the pricks. Like a self-sufﬁcient
Pastor
traditionalist, I screamed that I did not
need such devices to connect me socially or to advantage me technologically. My boys have
been adamant, however. They have been bound to get
me involved with some of the current new-age gadgets
despite my kicking and screaming against it.
They have ﬁnally succeeded, however. As of this
Christmas, I was gifted with a broader basis of capability to help expedite my ministry more effectively. I
was given items to better facilitate musical interests
and research needs. I did not realize during my days
of resistance how more enjoyable and satisfying things
could be by using these certain tools.
While all this may not mean much to most, it does,
however, draw interest to a biting consideration. By
contrast, many resist — kicking and screaming — the
taking part with or committing to the values of the
Christian life.
It primarily has to do with associating with and committing to a living faith in the Person, the redemptive
work, and the current intercessory advocating of Jesus
Christ. Despite the encouragement of other Christians,
or despite the inner urgings of Godly conviction, many
keep on kicking and screaming — in so many terms —
against it.
This biting consideration goes on to pose a biting
question: why should anyone resist tapping into the
extreme good that comes with accepting the spiritual
tools that connect us to God or the spiritual apps that
God provides?
For example, the salvation of God is too good to kick
and scream against. Because of Jesus Christ, forgiveness from the guilt and eternal consequences of sin
may be obtained by accepting God’s free gift of eternal
life through faith in the redemptive work of Jesus
Christ. God’s salvation means avoidance of hell and
admission to Heaven after physical death. Now, what
is wrong with that? Absolutely nothing. What is right
with that? Absolutely everything!
The providence of God is too good to kick and
scream against. The providence of God has to do with
all the good that God has at heart and in mind to direct
our way. Jesus Christ stated that He came “that we may
have life, and life more abundantly.” The availability of
the abundant life advocated by Christ has the prerequisite of receiving Christ as personal Savior and Lord
for sure. But, the abundant life in and from Christ has
beneﬁcent advantages, which include the following:
Hope. The hope that God gives effectively countermands the various and manifold insecurities of life. The
hope that God gives is not based upon wishful thinking, but based solely upon the sure promises of God.
Peace. There is inestimable value to having the peace
of God, which passes understanding, so says the Scripture. His peace capably keeps the heart and the mind
that sedates the soul. Scripturally representative of that
fact is the image stirred by Christ who once told the
raging winds and waves, “Peace. Be still.”
Material providence. God blesses us with deep and
rich blessings here and now. When God gives you
something, He gives you something good.
To remain in a kicking and screaming state of mind
against the extreme values of experience with God is
downright stupid. I do not apologize for saying so.
In the mean time, my boys have already suggested
my need for other technologies and apps. I have resorted to more kicking and screaming.

You can always find Jesus in the house of the Lord
Happy New Year! Have you
ever misplaced something? Of
course, you have. We have all
done that, haven’t we?
Perhaps we were reading a
book and put it down and then
later couldn’t remember where we
put it. Maybe we were watching
television and couldn’t remember
where we put the remote control.
I have even put my coffee cup
in the microwave oven and later
couldn’t remember where it was.
What do we do when we misplace
something? We usually retrace
our steps to all of the places we
have been until we ﬁnd it.

Luke 2: 41-51 and about some
parents who misplaced something. Now, these weren’t just

Dear Father, we come into Your

Gov. Tomblin’s efforts to develop
and re-train the state’s workforce will
also have a huge impact, according to
WVONGA ofﬁcials.
“We don’t have 18,000 people to put
to work,” DeMarco said. “We can’t tell
you that if all six of those projects were
approved tomorrow that you could ﬁnd
18,000 people. Their skills set aside, if
you put everyone who wanted to work to
work, you still wouldn’t ﬁll all of the jobs.”
Finding trained workers willing to
relocate is also an issue, DeMarco said.
For those who are not currently
qualiﬁed to ﬁll such roles, obtaining the
necessary education and certiﬁcation may
be easier than they would presume.
Workforce development, Gov.
Tomblin said, has been a top priority.
The Governor hosted the state’s ﬁrst
Workforce Summit in 2015 and, in
October, announced an additional $7.6
million in federal funding from the U.S.
Department of Labor to help coal miners
affected by layoffs and mine closures take
advantage of job training and career. The
grant funding provides tuition assistance
– up to $5,000 – for classroom and online
skills training, supports 25 on-the-job
training positions and provides meal,
travel and child care allowances for both
miners and their families.
WVONGA, along with multiple natural
gas companies, has also been working in
recent years to develop speciﬁc training
programs, working with universities,
community colleges and vocational schools
across the state. Projects included a multivehicle driving program at Southern West
Virginia Community and Technical College
in Logan and a drilling rig simulator
at Pierpont Community and Technical
College in Fairmont. Similar programs
are supported at community colleges and
vocational schools across the state.
Potential employees are not the
only ones who will beneﬁt from FERC
providing certiﬁcation for these projects,
according to oil and natural gas industry
ofﬁcials.
The economic beneﬁts for the
communities that would be impacted by
the construction of one of these pipeline
projects range from direct spending to
labor employment and tax revenue.
An example of these beneﬁts can

up to $14.6 million in taxes annually. This
amounts to 16 percent of the total 2013
combined budgets for the 10 counties,
according to the MVP data.
The MVP project data also notes the
pipeline would provide manufacturing
investment opportunities within the
state and the counties: Interviews with
county leaders indicate that natural gas
access can be a major factor in businesses
deciding to expand and locate operations
in a county, particularly energy-intensive
and advanced technology manufacturing.
Such businesses can provide large
economic beneﬁts to communities from
an employment, wage and tax revenue
perspective
Harrison County served as an example:
It has a thriving aerospace services
industry in which the average annual
wage is $72,000. Harrison County also
has an unemployment rate of only 3.5
percent.
Even without pipeline approval, the
2016 West Virginia Economic Outlook
forecasts that employment in the natural
gas sector will rise at a moderate pace
through 2020, increasing by about
1,400 jobs between 2015 and 2020. This
increase represents an average growth
rate of about 3.1 percent.
“These gains will further cement the
natural gas industry’s importance to West
Virginia’s energy economy. We expect
natural gas’s share of energy sector
employment to reach 32 percent by 2020,
up from 26 percent in 2014,” the Outlook
stated.

Lady Raiders fall to Fairland, 50-38
By Donald Lambert

elambert@civitasmedia.com

BIDWELL — A good physical
test for the Lady Raiders.
The River Valley girls basketball
team played good defense, but
turnovers and missed opportunities ultimately decided the contest
as the visiting Fairland Lady Dragons defeated the Silver and Black
50-38 on Wednesday night in Gallia County.
Fairland netted the ﬁrst points
of the game after Taylor Perry hit
a three-pointer at the 6:12 mark
of the ﬁrst quarter. River Valley’s (7-4) ﬁrst points came from
free throws from Leia Moore and
Shelby Brown. The Lady Dragons

Erin Jackson’s ﬁve points in the
ﬁnal two minutes got the Lady
Raiders within one point of their
opponents, but Allie Marshall’s
three kept Fairland out in front.
The Green and White led 13-9
after eight minutes of play.
The River Valley offense fought
back in the second quarter. After
a bucket from Emma Fulton, the
Lady Raiders went on a 6-0 run to
tie the contest at 15-all with a little
over ﬁve minutes remaining in the
period. However, the Lady Dragons
went on a 6-0 run of their own and
took a 21-15 lead into the break.
The Lady Raiders outrebounded
their opponent 17-7 in the ﬁrst
half, but turnovers hurt the Silver

the ﬁrst 16 minutes.

Fiesta Bowl
chocked
full of talent
GLENDALE, Ariz.
(AP) — Ohio State and
Notre Dame entered the
season with legitimate
national championship
hopes and were still in
the mix for the College
Football Playoff late in
the year.
To have those hopes
dashed, particularly after
coming so close, was a
huge disappointment for
both programs.
It worked out pretty
well for the Fiesta Bowl
with a marquee matchup
that’s as good as any outside of the three playoff
games.
And, despite falling
short of their main objectives, the seventh-ranked
Buckeyes and eighthranked Fighting Irish
insist they’re excited to
be in the desert.
It’s going to be a great
bowl game,” Ohio State
coach Urban Meyer said.
“Two traditional powers,
Notre Dame and Ohio
State, that are a couple
plays away from playing
for a national championship. There is no place
better than to play it
than in Glendale.”
Well, the Orange and
Cotton bowls might be
a little better, but these
teams came up just
short.

Ohio State (11-1) was
the defending national
champion and spent the
season’s ﬁrst 10 weeks at
No. 1 in The Associated
Press Top 25 despite
inconsistent play by its
quarterbacks.
The Buckeyes were
still in the coveted top
four of the CFB rankings
despite dropping behind
Clemson in the poll, but
lost to Michigan State
on a last-second ﬁeld
goal in their penultimate
game. All the teams
ahead of them won on
the ﬁnal weekend, leaving them behind fellow
one-loss teams Alabama,
Oklahoma and Michigan
State in the playoff pecking order.
Ohio State ﬁnished
No. 7 in the ﬁnal CFB
rankings.
Notre Dame (10-2)
fell four points short of
its playoff bid despite a
litany of injuries.
The Fighting Irish
were still in the playoff
picture after a two-point
loss to top-ranked Clemson on Oct. 3, but fell
out after another twopoint loss to Stanford on
No. 28. Notre Dame ﬁnished No. 8 in the ﬁnal
CFP rankings.

Southern senior Ali Deem (13) dribbles past Meigs freshman Madison Fields and junior Sarah Dowell (34) during the first half of the Lady
Tornadoes’ 37-31 victory, Wednesday night in Racine.

Southern slips past Lady Marauders
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@civitasmedia.com

RACINE — All that time spent
on conditioning really paid off.
All ﬁve Lady Tornadoes that
started Thursday night’s non-conference girls basketball tilt against
visiting Meigs played all 32 minutes, but the Purple and Gold were
still able to overtake their guest
late and sink 6-of-9 free throws in
the ﬁnal minute to seal the 37-31
victory.
Southern (8-3) hit back-to-back
trifectas to start the game and held
the Lady Marauders (4-7) scoreless for the opening 3:30. However,
Meigs ended the ﬁrst quarter with
a 7-1 run and tied the game eight
minutes into play.
The Maroon and Gold kept the
momentum going early in the second period, scoring the ﬁrst ﬁve
points of the quarter, while holding
Southern off the scoreboard until
the 4:33 mark. Despite SHS ending
the 8-plus minute cold spell with a
Sierra Cleland trifecta, Meigs kept
pushing forward and ended the half
on top 18-to-14.
Meigs freshman Kassidy Betzing opened the second half with
a three-pointer that stretched the
MHS lead to 21-14, but the Lady
Tornadoes stormed back to take
a 22-21 lead with an 8-0 run. The
Lady Marauders answered right
back however, outscoring the hosts
5-to-3 over the ﬁnal 3:00 of the
third, which gave Meigs a 26-25
lead with eight minutes to play.
SHS senior Jansen Wolfe sank
a two-pointer to give the Purple
and Gold the lead in the opening
minute of the third quarter, but the
Lady Tornadoes didn’t score again
for over 4:30, and Meigs regained
the lead at 29-27. The Lady Tornadoes tied the game at 29 on a
Faith Teaford ﬁeld goal at the 2:52
mark, and Southern took the lead
for good with 1:17 remaining, as

Cleland sank a two-pointer off of
an assist by Teaford.
SHS expanded the lead to 33-29
with back-to-back free throws by
Ali Deem, but the advantage was
cut back to one possession when
Betzing sank a pair of free throws
for Meigs. The game stayed at one
possession when Haley Hill made
1-of-2 free throws with 24 seconds
to play, but the missed free throw
was hauled in by Wolfe and Southern retained possession.
With 18 seconds to play, Deem
was fouled and made 2-of-2 free
throw attempts, expanding the
Lady Tornado lead to 36-31. Meigs
went 0-for-3 from the charity stripe
on its next possession and Southern capped off the 37-31 win with a
free throw by Teaford.
“I thought once we got the lead
our kids buckled down,” secondyear SHS head coach Kent Wolfe
said. “They played like juniors and
seniors and on the other side of
the ﬂoor they’ve got freshmen and
sophomores. Once we got the lead,
we made some foul shots and had
the ball in the right people’s hands
to make the foul shots.
“Give a lot of credit to Meigs and
Coach Cleland, they had a great
game plan. I thought they tried to
slow us down, let us make some
decisions and they really crowded
our post players. We didn’t shoot
the ball well from the perimeter
which fed into their game plan.”
Lady Marauders head coach
Scott Cleland, who preceded
Wolfe as Lady Tornadoes coach,
noted the fourth quarter woes that
plagued his team.
“We were 1-for-12 there in the
fourth quarter, you can’t win when
your missing that many shots,”
Coach Cleland said. “We had a
game plan, they stuck to it and
they did a great job. We wanted to
pressure them from one end of the
court to the other and we wanted

to keep the ball out of the high
post. Really they beat us from the
free throw line, we fouled them
when we shouldn’t have and that
happens.”
Deem paced the Purple and Gold
with 12 points, followed by Teaford with 10 and Cleland with six.
Hill marked ﬁve points in the win,
while Wolfe ﬁnished with four.
Southern shot 14-of-19 (73.7
percent) from the free throw line
and 10-of-44 (22.7 percent) from
the ﬁeld, including 3-of-15 (20
percent) from beyond the arc. As a
team the Purple and Gold had 24
defensive rebounds, 13 offensive
boards, nine assists, 11 steals,
seven blocks, 20 turnovers and
eight fouls.
Teaford and Wolfe led Southern
on the boards with 11 rebounds
each, followed by Deem with eight.
Hill paced the SHS defense with
ﬁve steals, while Wolfe contributed
two steals and four blocks. Wolfe
marked a team-best three assists in
the win, while Deem and Hill each
had two.
“We really weren’t ourselves
tonight,” Coach Wolfe said. “Our
kids had to play two nights ago
and had to give everything they
had against a pressing team. They
came back 48 hours later against
another team that’s bringing
10 people in. We’re tired, we’re
exhausted and I’m glad we don’t
play on Saturday.”
The Lady Tornadoes return to
action at 0-8 Wahama, on Monday.
Betzing led Meigs with nine
points before fouling out, while
Madison Fields and Madison
Hendricks each added ﬁve points.
Marissa Noble scored three points
for Meigs, Danielle Morris, Alli
Hatﬁeld, Bre Colburn and Halley
Barnes each ﬁnished with two,
while Sarah Dowell scored one
point in the setback.

McCarron practices
with sore left wrist,
ready for Ravens
CINCINNATI (AP) — A Bengals teammate lightly
tossed a ball to AJ McCarron, who stuck out both
hands to make the catch. With that simple gesture,
the quarterback showed he’s ready to ﬁnish the regular season.
McCarron used his left hand during a light practice
Wednesday, an indication that he won’t be limited
much by a sore wrist on his nonthrowing arm. He
hurt the wrist while trying to regain his game-ending
fumble during a 20-17 overtime loss in Denver on
Monday night.
He was cleared to practice after his wrist was examined Tuesday.
“I feel I’m a pretty mentally tough guy,” the twotime national champion at Alabama said. “I’ve had to
play through a lot of injuries, so I think I’ll be ﬁne.”
McCarron’s injury threw a scare into the Bengals
(11-4), who lost Andy Dalton to a broken thumb on
his passing hand Dec. 13. Dalton has a cast on the
hand but did some agility drills on the side of the ﬁeld
Wednesday. He’s hoping the fracture heals in time for
the playoffs.
It’s up to McCarron to lead the Bengals into the
postseason. During the game in Denver, he showed
he’s capable of playing well in big games. McCarron led
Cincinnati on touchdown drives of 80 and 90 yards to
open the game, going 9 of 11 for 84 yards with a touchdown and a pair of scrambles for 22 yards.
“He’s a special kid,” linebacker Rey Maualuga said.
“Everyone knows that. When Andy went down, everyone said that he’s been in a lot of tough games, he’s
come from a winning history. I don’t think anybody
had doubts in his playmaking abilities. He’s showed
ﬂashes of how good he can be.”
McCarron has gotten better each week. He was
rusty and threw a pair of interceptions after taking
over for Dalton during a 33-20 loss to Pittsburgh. He
didn’t have a turnover or make a big mistake during
a 24-14 win at San Francisco, after he’d had a week to
practice with the starting offense.

Raiders
From Page 6

Fairland kept its offensive
momentum going in the third
quarter. Wilson’s three points
led a 7-0 run for the Lady
Dragons that last much of the
period. Tianna Qualls gave the
home team its ﬁrst point of
the second half off a free throw
with 2:45 left in the quarter.
Moore hit a layup for the Silver

Bowl

now,” Notre Dame coach
Brian Kelly said. “Somebody is going to ﬁnish
ﬁfth in the ﬁnal polls.
That’s a spring board
for next year. These are
important games.”
A few more things to
look for when Ohio State
meets Notre Dame in

ﬁeld goals in the game (32
percent), while Fairland shot
16-of-46 from the ﬁeld (34 percent). The Silver and Black had
30 rebounds, but ﬁnished with
18 turnovers. The Lady Dragons had 22 rebounds and nine
turnovers in the contest.
“We didn’t play too bad at
defense, but we struggled a
bit there to score,” River Valley coach Sarah Evans-Moore
said. “When you can’t keep
pace with Fairland, you’re not
going to be able to win. I was

the Fiesta Bowl, Friday
at University of Phoenix
Stadium:
IRISH RETURING:
Notre Dame had a
long string of injuries,
including several to key
players. A few of those
players are set to return
for Friday’s game. Nose

One big dream gone,
but Notre Dame, like
Ohio State, is not taking
this game lightly.
“I think every bowl
game, it’s a playoff game

and Black with 26 seconds left,
but the visitors maintained a
30-20 edge heading into the
ﬁnale.
The Lady Raiders kicked
off the fourth quarter in grand
fashion with a 8-0 run — led by
consecutive threes from Jackson and Moore — to make it a
one possession game. Wilson’s
ﬁve points led the Lady Dragons on 14-3 run to give the visitors a little cushion late in the
contest.
River Valley shot 11-of-34

proud of our kids. I thought
they played hard and did a lot
of good things. We handled
their pressure alright and, if
we had a few more shots fall,
we would have been in a better
position to win the game. I give
credit to [Fairland]. They’re
very aggressive and play hard.
They’re a good team.”
Moore led River Valley’s
efforts with 12 points, followed
by Jackson with 10 points.
Brown and Courtney Smith
had six points each, while

tackle Jarron Jones
and tight end Durham
Smythe were both originally expected to be out
for the season after suffering knee injuries, but
returned to practice this
month. Running back
C.J. Prosise, out since
injuring his ankle Boston College on Nov. 21,
is expected to be back,
as are linebacker James
Onwualu (knee) and
junior cornerback Devin
Butler (concussion).
BUCKEYES QBS:
Ohio State went through
a season-long quarterback carousel as it tried
to ﬁnd consistency at
the position. Cardale
Jones opened the season
as the starter after rising from third-stringer
to guide the Buckeyes

Qualls contributed two points
for the Silver and Black.
Perry led Fairland with a
game-high 19 points. Emily
Chapman ﬁnished with nine
points, followed by Wilson with
eight points. Marshall and Emma
Fulton each had ﬁve points,
while Alesha Simpson had four
points for the Green and White.

to last season’s national
championship. After
seven inconsistent
games, he was replaced
by J.T. Barrett, who
started four games
and was suspended for
another after a drunken
driving charge. Barrett
remains the starter heading into the Fiesta Bowl,
but don’t be surprised if
Jones doesn’t see plenty
of action in his ﬁnal
game before heading to
the NFL.
KIZER SHINES:
Notre Dame suffered
what seemed to be a
huge blow when starting
quarterback Malik Zaire
suffered a season-ending
ankle injury the second
game of the season.
Sophomore DeShone
Kizer made sure the

Meigs was 3-of-7 (42.9 percent) from
the free throw line and 12-of-47 (25.5
percent) from the ﬁeld, including 4-of18 (22.2 percent) from three-point
range. The Lady Marauders combined
for 21 defensive rebounds, seven offensive rebounds, nine assists, 11 steals,
four blocks, 21 turnovers and 17 fouls
in the contest.
Morris paced Meigs on the glass
with ﬁve rebounds, followed by Barnes
and Noble with four each. The Lady
Marauder defense was led by Betzing
with four steals and Dowell with three
steals and a block. Fields, Betzing and

Irish didn’t miss a step,
throwing for 2,600 yards
and 19 touchdowns
— with nine interceptions — while adding
499 yards and nine more
touchdowns rushing.
TALENT LOAD: The
Fiesta Bowl might be the
bowl with the most talented players. The game
will feature numerous
NFL prospects, including seven who could be
ﬁrst-round picks in next
year’s draft: Ohio State
DE Joey Bosa, Notre
Dame LB Jaylon Smith,
Notre Dame T Ronnie
Stanley, Ohio State T
Taylor Decker, Ohio
State RB Ezekiel Elliott,
Ohio State WR Michael
Thomas, Ohio State LB
Darron Lee.

Courtney Jones each had two assists for
the Maroon and Gold.
“I’m very pleased with where we are
right now,” Coach Cleland said. “Did we
want the ‘w’, absolutely, but these girls
play hard. This is the most down that
I’ve seen them, so it shows me that they
care. They really wanted to win this ball
game and they want to win every game.
They’ve got the ﬁre back and it’s real
exciting.”
Meigs, which had won three straight
games prior to Wednesday, visits 1-10
Federal Hocking on Monday. MHS
topped the Lady Lancers in the season
opener at Larry R. Morrison Gymnasium, by a 55-45 count.
