Council OKs
new meters
By Lindsay Kriz

lkriz@civitasmedia.com

POMEROY — At their ﬁrst meeting of
February Pomeroy Council voted to buy enough
new digital parking meters for downtown. The
new meters, which will cost about $14,000 and
are being purchased by Take a Powder Inc.,
out of New Jersey. Council voted to purchase
enough meters to cover Sycamore Street, Lynn
Street, Court Street and 2nd Street. Currently
Main Street is the only street with older meters
in place, and these meters will be discussed
later.
Brewce Martin, who helped implement the
new skate park in Pomeroy, approached council
during the meeting and said that he should
receive for money for his work on the project.
According to Fiscal Ofﬁcer Sue Baker, Martin
initially agreed to help build the park, which
was set to cost $18,000. The village had a grant
for $20,000 for the project as well. However, in
the end the park cost more than $36,000.
After discussion, council agreed to hold a
ﬁnance meeting on Tuesday, Feb. 9 at 7:30 p.m.
to discuss the situation in detail.
Mayor Bryan Shank had myriad information
to share with council regarding village news.
Shank shared with council that the Ohio Public
Works Commission had turned down the village
in terms of funding for both the repair slip on
Pleasant Ridge and for the extension of the
sewer line on State Route 833.
Shank said that he had also contacted
AEP and spoken to AEP ofﬁcials regarding
streetlights out in the village. Baker said that
about 30 street lights have been out for about
two years, and that AEP is now ﬁxing these
lights. He said that about 10 interviews have
been conducted to replace a public works labor
position, but that the job hadn’t been ﬁlled yet.
Three approvals for the use of the Pomeroy
Parking Lot were given. Meigs County Victims
has permission to use part of the parking lot
April 8-15, Relay For Life will be using the
parking lot on May 20 and Kickin’ Summer
Bash will be using the lot June 10 and 11.
Creating Healthy Communities, a grant
program, will be helping with another basketball
court off of Main Street in the village. The
village is also going to solicit bids for cemetery
mowing.
DV Weber will also be ﬁxing some
construction issues at Trinity Church of
Pomeroy. Council also voted to permit the
USDA to place insect traps in Beech Grove
Cemetery to check for problematic insects. The
traps will not be easily visible, Baker said. AEP
will also be moving lines on 2nd Street as well,
although an exact date was not yet known.
The next regular meeting is set for Feb.
15, Presidents’ Day, so the next meeting will
instead be 7 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 16.

By Lindsay Kriz
lkriz@civitasmedia.com

POMEROY — Plenty
of people packed the
Pomeroy Parking Lot

Veterans honored with ‘Quilts of Valor’
By Beth Sergent
bsergent@civitasmedia.com

POINT PLEASANT,
W.Va. — As a show of
appreciation for their
service, a patriotic and
comforting gift was
recently given to local
veterans.
Local organization,
Quilts n’ Things Guild,
has participated in the
West Virginia Quilts
of Valor program in
the past and this year,
their participation
was more localized,
with local veterans
being recognized with
individually made quilts.
The quilts were made
by members who spent
over a month preparing
and completing all of
them, including creating
the pieces on a machine
and two members
actually quilted the
pieces together - this
resulted in a deﬁnite
group effort. The quilts
were distributed during
a special reception
held at Sacred Heart
Church, which included
refreshments.
Veterans receiving
quilts on behalf of
the guild were: Miles
Epling, Mason County
Commissioner and
former Marine who
served in Vietnam. Leo

Germany. Farris Burton,
a Navy veteran who
served in WWII.
Also, Floyd Sayre, a
local Air Force veteran
who served in Vietnam
and Bill Curnutt, a local
Army veteran who served
in Vietnam, received

quilts donated by another
West Virginia Quilts of
Valor volunteer group.
These quilts which
were made by children
working out of church.
The mission of
the Quilts of Valor
Foundation, which is a
national foundation, is to
cover service members
and veterans touched
by war with comforting
and healing Quilts of
Valor. All quilts are
made by volunteers
and, quilts made by
the Quilts n’ Things

Guild, have even ended
up being delivered to
soldiers at Walter Reed
Army Medical Center.
Guild members plan to
continue participating in
the program.
Also attending the
reception along with
veterans, their families
and guild members, was
Maribeth Shreve, regional
coordinator for West
Virginia Quilts of Valor.

Meigs gas prices too high
Dear Editor,
As a local reader of the Daily Sentinel, one piece
in the paper caught my eye on Jan. 26 regarding
Ohio gas prices continuing to fall as the state average price was $1.56 a gallon.
Not here in this southern Ohio town or area.
I always say this is the poorest area in the state
with the highest prices for the most part. Greed is
the best word for it. When Americans have nothing, cut them even more by keeping gas prices
high. As of Jan. 26, our gas prices were $1.76 a
gallon in Meigs County. Can we say greed?
Shame on them. Twenty cents a gallon, say
what? Yes. Greed. Get it now? When we are all
broke you will have nothing.

Lawmakers should
pass H.B. 384
Ohioans support the
state’s colleges and
universities to the tune
of $2.1 billion a year. In
return for this investment, the legislature
could assure taxpayers
their money isn’t being
wasted by passing a bill
that would allow the
state auditor to delve
into whether spending
on programs, people
and purchases is appropriate and efﬁcient.
House Bill 384,
backed by Auditor
Dave Yost and other
ﬁscal experts, gives the
auditor’s ofﬁce authority to conduct highereducation performance
audits. This would be in
addition to the auditor’s
routine ﬁnancial audits,
which safeguard against
fraud and theft.
“A performance audit
can be used to identify
potential waste, leading
to cost savings, better
services and more-cost

effective budgets,”
said Rep. Mike Duffey,
R-Worthington, who
co-sponsored the bill
with Rep. Tim Schaffer,
R-Lancaster …
Such audits also could
help to resolve controversies, such as one at
Kent State University
over the costly remodeling of the president’s
home (while employees
were being laid off) or
OSU’s decision to lease
its parking assets …
As this worthy bill
advances, lawmakers
should reject an amendment being ﬂoated to
make auditor’s ofﬁce
pay for the performance
audits, not the colleges
…
Lawmakers should
pass H.B. 384 to extend
this opportunity to

Outbreak of Zika
virus demands
global response
As an estimated 200,000 Americans prepare to
compete in or attend the 31st Summer Olympics
in Rio de Janeiro this year, an unwelcome visitor
has cast a pall over preparations for the worldacclaimed Games.
That intruder, the Zika virus transmitted via
bites from the Aedes aegypti mosquito, has rapidly
morphed into an epidemic centered primarily in
Central and South America with Brazil as its vortex …
World Health Organization Director-General Dr.
Margaret Chan put the Western Hemisphere on
high alert this week, noting the virus is “spreading
explosively” in the Americas. As a result, a committee of the WHO will convene in emergency session Monday to brainstorm an action plan to ﬁght
the virus and possibly declare it an international
health emergency. Health leaders in the United
States and around the globe should support that
and other initiatives to reign in the virus and prevent it from becoming a global pandemic …
A more appropriate response would be for
health leaders to work feverishly to minimize the
likelihood for infection before the Games begin.
Then visitors to Rio and other areas of potential
Zika attacks should follow a strict regimen of preventive safeguards, caution and responsibility.

OHIO STATE BRIEFS

MARIETTA (AP) — Ohio ofﬁcials
say they have offered a compromise
to a recently retired police ofﬁcer who
wants to keep his K-9 partner.
Ofﬁcials in Marietta said Monday
that they never intended to separate
Matt Hickey from his dog. The story of
Hickey and his K-9 partner Ajax drew
public attention after Marietta rejected
Hickey’s $3,500 offer to buy Ajax and
said the dog would have to be auctioned
because Ajax was city property and
could still work.
But ofﬁcials now say Hickey can keep
Ajax if Hickey agrees to work as an
unpaid auxiliary ofﬁcer.
Hickey hasn’t decided whether to
accept Marietta’s offer. He and Ajax
were partners for four years.
A GoFundMe Account to help Hickey
buy Ajax has raised $70,000.

Buckeye Chuck’s
prediction: More winter
MARION (AP) — Ohio is in for six
more weeks of winter weather if the
“prediction” of the state’s groundhog,
Buckeye Chuck, is to be believed.
Unlike Pennsylvania’s famous Punx-

sutawney Phil, the groundhog in Marion
was reported to have seen his shadow
Tuesday morning. Legend has it that if the
furry rodent sees his shadow on Feb. 2,
winter will last another month-and-a-half.
If he doesn’t see it, spring will come early.
The Marion Star reports Buckeye
Chuck has been the state’s ofﬁcial
groundhog since 1979, and about threefourths of the rodent’s predictions have
proved right.

TROTWOOD (AP) — Police are
investigating the fatal shootings of two
men found dead in a car parked in a
driveway with the engine running.
Investigators say the two men in their
20s were found shortly before 10 p.m. Monday in the Dayton suburb of Trotwood.
Trotwood police Capt. John Porter says
investigators don’t believe the shootings
were random. Police found several shell
casings in and around the car and bullet
holes in the front of the sedan. Two handguns were found inside the car.
Police found the bodies after responding to a call from an area resident.
Authorities say there had been earlier
reports of shots ﬁred in the area around
the time the two men were shot, but police
were unable to ﬁnd anything at that time.

Waterford
sweeps Lady
Eagles, 54-29

WATERFORD —
Another year, another
Tri-Valley Conference
Hocking Division girls
basketball title decided
when Eastern and Waterford meet on the hardwood.
Headed into Monday
night’s tilt the Lady Wildcats had already clinched
a share of their second
straight league title and
the Lady Eagles were the
only team left that had a
shot to catch the Green
and White. Waterford —
which has combined with
EHS to claim the last 12
league titles — had no
intention of sharing the
2015-16 crown however,
as it knocked off Eastern
by a 54-29 count at the
Harry Cooper Annex, in
Washington County.
Eastern (14-6, 12-3
TVC Hocking) trailed
by just three points,
10-7, at the conclusion
of the opening period,
but a Waterford (18-1,
14-0) outscored the Lady
Eagles by a 21-13 clip in
the second quarter, making the host’s advantage
31-20 at the half.
The Lady Wildcats
outscored EHS 10-to-5
in the third period and
13-to-4 in the fourth, capping off the 54-29 victory.
Eastern junior Laura
Pullins led the Green
and Gold with 11 points,
followed by Jess Parker
with seven and Elizabeth

Collins with four. Kelsey
Casto scored three
points, while Rebecca
Pullins and Alyson Bailey
rounded out the Lady
Eagle scoring with two
points apiece. Eastern
shot 12-of-15 from the
free throw line, equaling
80 percent.
Regan Porter led the
league champions with
14 points, followed by
Dani Drayer with 13 and
Alli Kern with 12. Erin
Roush marked six points,
Mariah Starkey added
four, Jillian McCutcheon
chipped in with three,
while Hayley Duff scored
two in the win. WHS
shot 9-of-12 from the free
throw line, equaling 75
percent.
Waterford also defeated the Green and Gold
on December 21, by a
48-30 count in Tuppers
Plains.
The Lady Wildcats
have now won 35 consecutive TVC Hocking
games with their last
league loss coming to
Eastern, by a 75-44 count
on February 5, 2014 at
Waterford’s Harry Cooper Annex.
The seniorless Lady
Eagles had won ﬁve of

hitting back-to-back threes to forge a
13-13 tie after one.
“We couldn’t buy a shot in the ﬁrst
half. That’s the way we’ve been for
the last two or three games for some
reason,” said Cleland. “This is the ﬁrst
time in the second half we’ve nailed a
bunch of shots. The problem has been
we’ve been settling for threes instead of
attacking and going to the basket. Once
we attack and go to the basket, the outside shot is open.”
The Rockets rode the hot hand of the
freshman Mullins, who scored a career
and game-high 23 points, including 19
through the opening three quarters and
which featured ﬁve three-pointers.
Green — on four ﬁeld goals and 3-of4 free throws — scored all 12 of her
points through the ﬁrst three quarters,
as did Katelyn Stewart on a secondquarter ﬁeld goal and 3-of-4 foul shots.
There were four ties and ﬁve lead
changes, as Wellston led for almost 24
minutes, but was only 8-of-18 at the
foul line.
Hendricks had two deuces and two
treys towards 10 points, while Sadie
Fox with two ﬁeld goals and Danielle
Morris with one rounded out the
Maroon and Gold.
The Marauders have two non-league
games remaining, including at 9-9 Jackson on Thursday.
“Jackson has a really good player in
the (Rebekah) Green girl,” said Cleland. “We’re not going to be able to play
like we did the ﬁrst half tonight and
come out with a win. We’re going to
have to play all four quarters well.”
Meigs will then host Wahama on Saturday night in the regular-season ﬁnale.

Southern sweeps
Lady Lancers
By Alex Hawley

ahawley@civitasmedia.com

STEWART — The start was nice, but what a ﬁnish.
The Southern girls basketball team — which led Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division host by four points at the
end of the ﬁrst and third quarters — outscored the Lady
Lancers 13-to-6 over the ﬁnal eight minutes to secure the
41-30 victory, Monday night in McInturf Gymnasium.
The Lady Tornadoes (14-6, 11-4 TVC Hocking) led 11-to7 at the conclusion of the ﬁrst period and expanded the lead
to 20-14 by halftime.
Federal Hocking (5-16, 4-12) outscored its guest 10-to-8
in the third quarter, and the Lady Lancer deﬁcit sat at 28-24
with eight minutes to play. However, the Maroon and Gold
were held to just one ﬁeld goal in the fourth quarter, while
Southern hit 7-of-11 free throws in the period, helping to
seal the 41-30 victory.
SHS junior Faith Teaford led the victors 13 points and 12
rebounds, followed by Ali Deem with 10 points and Savannah Bailey with eight points. Jansen Wolfe recorded four
points, nine rebounds and two assists, Haley Hill scored
three points and added three assists, while Sierra Cleland
rounded out the SHS offense with three points.
Southern’s defense was led by Hill and Deem with three
steals each, while Wolfe marked two steals and two blocked
shots.
The Purple and Gold shot 11-of-18 (61.1 percent) from
the free throw line and 14-of-38 (36.8 percent) from the
ﬁeld, including 2-of-3 (66.7 percent) from beyond the arc.
Collectively, the Lady Tornadoes ﬁnished with 33 rebounds,
six assists, 11 steals, three blocks and 19 turnovers.
Federal Hocking was led by Destiny Tabler with 10
points and Hannah Dunfee with eight, followed by Audrey
Blake with four points and Kaylli McPherson with three.
Gracie Beha and Skylar Hatﬁeld rounded out the Lady
Lancer scoring with two points and one point respectively.
FHHS shot 3-of-4 from the free throw line, equaling 75
percent.
Southern also defeated Federal Hocking on December
21, by a 65-25 count in Racine.
The Lady Tornadoes return home on Thursday for their
regular season ﬁnale against Wahama. Southern topped the
Lady Falcons by a 61-16 ﬁnal on January 4, in Mason, and
the Lady Tornadoes will honor its four seniors prior to the
game.

Belpre sweeps Lady Falcons, 65-17
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@civitasmedia.com

MASON, W.Va. — There were
positive signs, but it didn’t show on
the scoreboard.
The Wahama girls basketball
team dropped its 49th consecutive
Tri-Valley Conference Hocking
Division contest Monday night
following a 65-17 setback to visiting Belpre at Gary Clark Court in
Mason County.
The host Lady Falcons (0-15,
0-13 TVC Hocking) — who have
lost 58 consecutive games overall
— never led in the contest, as the
Lady Golden Eagles (12-9, 10-5)
soared out to an 18-4 ﬁrst quarter
lead and never looked back. BHS
followed with a 20-3 surge to close
the half for a commanding 38-7 lead
at the break.
The Red and White showed a
more competitive side following
halftime as Belpre mustered only
a small 7-4 edge during the third
canto, which made it a 45-11 contest headed into the ﬁnale. Both
teams cleared the benches down
the stretch, which led to a BHS
20-6 run to wrap up the 48-point
outcome.
The Orange and Black claimed a
season sweep after posting a 72-14
decision at home back on December
21. Belpre’s largest lead of the game
was the ﬁnal margin of victory.
The Lady Golden Eagles converted all 18 of their free throw
attempts, which means the guests
only scored 45 points from the ﬁeld.
That, as well as his team’s continued effort, was a point of emphasis
for ﬁrst-year WHS coach John
Arnott when speaking about the
game afterwards.
“I thought our defensive effort
was better tonight and I was really

Court in Mason, W.Va.

pleased with the effort that our
seniors gave tonight. I thought the
younger kids fed off of that a little
bit tonight,” Arnott said. “If we are
going to get things turned around
and end this streak, it will have to
start on the defensive end of the
ﬂoor. Once we get better at playing
tough defense, the offense will come.
“The good thing is that the girls
are still willing to play hard on both
ends of the ﬂoor. I think that speaks
volumes about the character of
these girls.”
The Lady Falcons made only one
of their six ﬁeld goals from behind
the arc and also went 4-of-6 at
the free throw line for 67 percent.
Olivia Hill paced the hosts with
seven points, followed by Nena

Hunt with ﬁve markers.
Maddy Van Matre and Molly Fisher were next with two points apiece,
while Grace Haddox rounded out
the WHS tally with one point.
Shaye Barker and Caitlin Hughes
led BHS with 13 points apiece,
followed by Daisy Cowdery and
Makayla Zimmerman with 11 markers each. Trinity King and Hannah
Lawrence respectively added ﬁve and
four points to the winning cause.
Sydney Spencer was next with
three points, while Maddie Hughes
and Caitlin Richards each chipped
in two points. Hannah Deems
wrapped up the Belpre tally with
one point.

Lady Vikings sweep River Valley Raiders, 57-50
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@civitasmedia.com

McARTHUR — Better … but
still not good enough.
The River Valley girls basketball
team showed signs of improvement the second time around, but
host Vinton County still came up
with all the right answers Monday
night during a 57-50 decision in a
Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division matchup in Vinton County.
The Lady Raiders (10-11, 4-7
TVC Ohio) had their two-game
winning streak snapped, but the

guests produced double-digit scoring in each of the four quarters of
play while also hitting six trifectas
in the setback.
The Lady Vikings (15-6, 9-2),
conversely, remained tied with
both Nelsonville-York and Alexander atop the league standings
while also claiming a season sweep
of RVHS. The Maroon and Gray
previously posted a 53-26 decision
in Bidwell back on December 21.
VCHS managed to stake claim
to a slim 13-11 edge after eight
minutes of play, but Leia Moore
scored eight points during a 12-10

second quarter run that allowed
River Valley to knot things up at
23-all headed into halftime.
The Lady Vikings rode senior
Michala Puckett down the stretch
run, as the senior scored seven of
her 11 second-half points during
a 16-13 run in the third that gave
the hosts a 39-36 cushion headed
into the ﬁnale. VCHS hit 5-of-6
free throws as part of an 18-14 run
to end regulation, wrapping up the
seven-point outcome.
The Silver and Black netted six
of their 20 ﬁeld goals from behind
the arc and were also 4-of-11 at

the free throw line for 36 percent.
Moore led the guests with four
trifectas and 17 points, followed by
Tianna Qualls with 14 points.
Courtney Smith and Erin Jackson were next with seven markers apiece, while Jaden Neal and
Maggie Campbell each scored two
points. Shelby Brown rounded out
the RVHS tally with one point.
The Lady Vikings made only
one of their 22 ﬁeld goals from
behind the arc and also went
12-of-17 at the charity stripe for 71
percent. Jalen Hale led VCHS with
a game-high 18 points, followed by

Puckett with 17 points and Erin
Jones with nine markers.
Katie Fee contributed eight
points to the winning cause, while
Hannah Radabaugh and Sara
Owings respectively rounded out
the winning tally with four points
and one point.
The Lady Raiders conclude
their 2016 regular season on
Thursday when they host Nelsonville-York in a TVC Ohio contest
at 6 p.m.

Buckeyes bully
River Valley
By Alex Hawley

NELSONVILLE — A night to forget.
The River Valley boys basketball team suffered a
65-31 setback at the hands of host Nelsonville-York
on Saturday, in a Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division tilt at Ben Wagner Gymnasium.
The Buckeyes (5-12, 2-6) led 16-7 after eight
minutes of play, and expanded their advantage to
33-18 by halftime. The Raiders (3-14, 0-8) were
outscored by a 15-to-6 clip in the third canto, as
the deﬁcit grew to 49-24. NYHS capped off the
65-31 victory with a 16-to-7 fourth quarter run.
RVHS senior Mark Wray led the Raiders with
10 points, followed by Kirk Morrow with seven
and Tre Craycraft with ﬁve. Tyler Twyman scored
three points, Jarrett McCarley and Ian Polcyn both
added two, while Jacob Dovenbarger and Layne
Fitch rounded out the Silver and Black scoring
with one point apiece.
The Raiders shot just 10-of-21 (47.6 percent)
from the free throw line, while Twyman accounted
for the lone RVHS trifecta.
Aron Davis led Nelsonville-York with 20 points,
followed by Hunter Edwards with 17 and Noah
Andrews with nine. Christian Berry and Ronnie
Wend both scored ﬁve points in the win, while
Kris Kline and Jakob Talbert each added three.
The Buckeye scoring was rounded out by Alex
Williams with two points and Patrick Gail with
one.
The Orange and Brown connected on 21-of-34
free throw attempts, equaling 61.8 percent.
The Buckeyes — who had lost 12 of their last 13
games before Saturday — also topped River Valley
on December 11, by a 56-48 count in Bidwell.
The Raiders will try to snap their ﬁve-game
losing skid on Tuesday, when Athens visits Gallia
County. The Bulldogs — who have won seven of
their last eight decisions — defeated RVHS by a
72-37 ﬁnal on December 15, in The Plains.
