The ruling could provide a
boost for Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders.
Younger voters are among
his key supporters, and his
campaign also ﬁled a federal
lawsuit over the policy for
17-year-old voters.
Whether the teens could
vote in the presidential primary race has been under dispute
in the perennial battleground,
though they were already
allowed to decide on congressional, legislative and mayoral
contenders.
Husted had said Ohio’s
rules and constitution didn’t
permit 17-year-olds to vote for
president in the primary, and

he didn’t allow them to vote
in Ohio’s last presidential primary, the ﬁrst elections under
his tenure.
Nine 17-year-old registered
voters in central Ohio sued
him on Tuesday in state court
over his interpretation.
Franklin County Common
Pleas Court Judge Richard
Frye, who was asked to issue
an emergency order blocking
Husted’s instructions that forbade the teens from voting in
the presidential primary, said
in his ruling that from 1981 to
2012, no previous secretary of
state had interpreted the law
as Husted had.
“That is, it was not until

2012, when the current Secretary discovered this new limitation on 17-year old voting,
that anyone holding the ofﬁce
publicly said that selection of
Presidential convention delegates was off-limits for 17-year
olds,” Frye wrote.
At issue was a distinction
between “elect” and “nominate.”
A manual for elections ofﬁcials issued last year by Husted said 17-year-olds can vote
“solely on the nomination of
candidates” — and not in the
presidential primary “because
delegates are elected and not
nominated.”

Johnson stumps for GOP

Board hands tied
by legal oddity
By Lorna Hart
lhart@civitasmedia.com

See ODDITY | 4A

U.S. Rep. Bill Johnson, R-6th
District, says the Gallia County
residents should throw their
support behind Ohio Gov.
John Kasich in his bid to win
Ohio’s presidential primary
delegates. The Ohio primary is
Tuesday. Johnson, who spoke to
members of the Gallia County
Republican Party earlier this
week at the annual Lincoln
Day Dinner at the University
of Rio Grande, said all of the
GOP presidential candidates
have good qualities they would
bring to the Oval Office, but
is throwing his support to
Kasich because of his previous
experience in working with the
federal budget and helping
Ohio emerge from an multibillion deficit to a $2 billion
surplus.

POMEROY — With the March 15 Primary
Election just a few days away, the role of the Board
of Elections should be clariﬁed.
The powers and limits of the board of elections
as it pertains to certifying the sufﬁciency and
validity of petitions was discussed during a
special meeting of the Meigs County Election
Board on Jan. 20. The hearing was called as a
result of a protest ﬁled challenging the validity
of Larry Tucker’s candidacy for Meigs County
Commissioner in the March 15 primary.
The Ohio Revised Code(ORC) speciﬁes the
ﬁrst recourse given to a citizen who questions the
validity of a candidate is to ﬁle a protest with the
accountable Board of Elections.
As covered in a previously published report
by the Daily Sentinel, current Meigs County
Commissioner Smith, seeking his second term in
ofﬁce, brought forth the issue to election board
ofﬁcials of whether his opponent, Larry Tucker,
was “unclassiﬁed” or “classiﬁed” in regard to his
employment with the Village of Middleport as a
jail corrections ofﬁcer.
The distinction would be critical, as Smith
submitted documentation of both Meigs County
and the Village of Middleport policies that forbid
classiﬁed employees from certain political activity,
namely running for partisan political ofﬁces. In
addition, he cited Section 124.57 of the Ohio
Revised Code which also prohibits such political
activities.
According to the ORC, new government hires
are deemed unclassiﬁed and remain so for ninety
days. Unless the employee signs a form presented
by his or her employer during that period advising

La., Miss. residents watch waters

COVINGTON, La. (AP) —
Residents in Louisiana and
Mississippi are taking stock of
damage Saturday after a massive
deluge of rain submerged roads and
cars, washed out bridges and forced
residents to ﬂee homes.
The rain and ﬂooding is part of
a weather system that has affected
Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas,
Tennessee and Alabama. At least
three people have died in Louisiana
alone.
In Mississippi, officials said as
many as 1,000 residents could
see their homes flooded by the
rising Leaf River in Hattiesburg,
Petal and surrounding areas.
In Louisiana’s St. Tammany
Parish, officials late Friday asked
people living near two rivers to
consider evacuating because the
rivers were rising to “historical
proportions” because of heavy
rains north of the area.
In southwest Louisiana, a band
of rain dumped 10 to 15 inches
of rain across some areas late
Thursday and into Friday, sparking
vicious ﬂash ﬂooding.
Allen DeWeese was living in
the Land-o-Pines campground in
Covington with his 10-year-old
son when the rushing waters of

the Tchefuncte River destroyed
his trailer.
“They’re calling it Land-o-Lakes
right at the moment,” he joked,
while smoking a cigarette at a shelter set up in Covington. His trailer?
“It’s destroyed. It’s underwater.”
He planned to spend the night
at the shelter. After that, he wasn’t
sure. “I’ll take it day-to-day,” he
said.
In nearby Tangipahoa Parish,
Sheriff Daniel Edwards said close
to 50 roads were closed because of
high water and an estimated 300 to
400 people had to evacuate. Further
to the east in Washington Parish,
swollen rivers and creeks led to
widespread ﬂooding.
In northern Louisiana, the deluge
has dumped 15 to 20 inches this
week. In Ouachita Parish, well over
1,000 people have been evacuated,
said Glenn Springﬁeld, a spokesman for the sheriff’s ofﬁce. He said
they started doing water rescues
early Wednesday morning and have
been “doing those pretty much
around the clock nonstop since
then.”
In Bossier Parish, also in northwest Louisiana, ﬁrst responders
evacuated at least 1,000 people.
Ofﬁcials Friday said they expect
waters to overtop the Red Chute

Levee but it’s too soon to say by
how much or what damage it could
cause.
Brenda Maddox was forced to
ﬂee her home of 26 years. The
couple left Thursday with four days
of clothes packed. On Friday they
came back to retrieve their car
from the ﬂooded streets and were
going to an RV park to wait out the
rain.
“We’d heard we’d get a lot of rain,
but it all came so sudden,” she said.
“We hate to leave, but we thought
we’d get out while we can.”
At the Pecan Valley Estates
mobile home park, Sam Cassidy
and his wife were the last holdouts
Friday — worried looters might
come if they left.
Thursday morning, with waters
creeping up his front steps, he
stood in waist-deep water watching
his neighbors evacuate. An alligator
swam by. By night it looked like a
“horror movie.”
“It was pitch black; the houses
were empty. It’s been an adventure,” he said.
The weather system responsible
for the problems was starting to
move slowly to the northeast, but
additional showers are expected
Saturday, said Frank Revitte, from the
National Weather Service in Slidell.

Forward’ award
By Beth Sergent

bsergent@civitasmedia.com

POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. —
An epic battle is about to begin.
This battle will feature elected
ofﬁcials, school administrators, as
well as members of the faith and
business communities who will
duel on stage to a tune (or two) of
their choosing.
On April 2, 16 well-known local
ﬁgures will pick up the microphone
for the inaugural Lip Sync Battle
at The Meeting House, located in
the former St. Paul UM Church at
2434 Jackson Ave.
Doors open at 5:15 p.m., event

All proceeds beneﬁt The Kitchen
Table organization which offers

not only provide free meals to the
community, but to provide nonperishable food for individuals in
emergency need. All money raised
at the event will stay local.
The Lip Sync Battle will include
two individuals facing off per round
and the audience deciding who
wins until there is a grand prize
winner. Emceeing the event will be
personalities from 93.1 The Wolf.
The order of the lineup, and just
who will be facing off, will remain
a secret until the event, but just
who is participating is a “who’s
who” of local ﬁgures.

at the battle are: Mason County

offered legal counsel.
During Smith’s turn at
closing statements before
the board voted, he said,
“I want to make clear, I’m
not asking the BOE to
make a determination or
whether he is violating
the law, I’m asking that if
he is prohibited by law,
if his political activities
are limited to voting and
supporting a candidate,
I cannot see how the
petitions could possibly
be valid.”
Tucker also made
a closing statement.
“My wife and I are
very hard workers in
this community.” He
continued “I work 80,
90 hours a week. I feel
like I’m being punished
here for that. I am ready
to resign my Middleport
post and take a temporary
leave of absence until
after the election, if that
will satisfy your curiosity,
or whatever, I will
resign.” He then clariﬁed,
“NOT resign, the mayor
and my boss down in
Middleport said I can
take this leave until after
the primary, if that’s what
I need to satisfy everyone
in this room.”
Tucker also asserted
that uncertainty of his
status was a new issue,
only learning the night
prior that he may be
classiﬁed. “Until eight
o’clock last night, my two
immediate supervisors
and the mayor of
Middleport were
unaware of whether I was
classiﬁed or unclassiﬁed,
so how am I to know if

they don’t know?”
Following an executive
session motioned by Rita
Slavin, the board ruled
unanimously to deny
Smith’s protest. The
board fully described
their reasoning during
the open session, and
so the ruling did not
necessitate issuing a
formal statement at the
close of the meeting.
However, Former
Ohio State Senator and
Representative and
current BOE board
member Jimmy Stewart
elaborated this week
when asked for comment.
“The Ohio Revised
Code says if you are in a
classiﬁed position, you
cannot seek a partisan
position. The law has
a remedy or penalty, if
someone chooses to run,
but the law does not say
the person is to be taken
off the ballot by the BOE
and it does not give the
board the authority to
remove the candidate for
that reason, it is a matter
for the prosecutor.”
He continued, and said
the law does spell out
occasions where they
have the authority to take
someone off the ballot.
“For instance, the
board could take someone
off the ballot if they were
under or over the age
requirement. Another
example, someone is
running for ofﬁce and the
board ﬁnds out they have
a felony conviction, the
board has the authority
to remove them from the
ballot. But in this event,

IF ITS NOT BROKE DON’T FIX IT

60644189

the law doesn’t give the
BOE the authority (to do
so).”
“And while there might
be a penalty, it isn’t being
taken off the ballot. It is
not a question of what the
law ought to be, it is what
it is and the board must
follow it. We can only do
what the law allows.”
When asked if a
candidate has to prove
to the BOE if they are
classiﬁed or unclassiﬁed,
he answered that even if
the board knew the day a
candidate ﬁled, they still
do not have the authority
to disqualify them.
“The board heard the
evidence, and the vote
was unanimous, we had
to comply with the law.”
Adding to the late-hour
campaign drama, the
Village of Middleport
Solicitor Richard Hedges
issued a legal opinion
on February 3 that holds
all Village employees
are unclassiﬁed, which
would include Tucker.
Such an situation would
possibly expose any
current Village employee
to removal without cause,
as they would no longer
receive the protections
enumerated under
classiﬁed status.
However, those
developments, and
the potential criminal
matter hovering over the
election, remain outside
the purview of the
Election Board.
During the recording
of the special meeting,
BOE Chairman Charles
Williams said, “So far,
we have heard from the
prosecuting attorney’s
ofﬁce, and we have no
option but to accept
it, beyond that, if it
is a criminal case, it
needs to be decided by
someone other than the
election board, that is my
interpretation.”
“The board of election
relies on the advice of
our legal counsel when
this type of issue occurs,”
Williams had said in an
earlier interview. “We can
only do what the ORC
allows us to do.”

YOUR VIEW

Vote ‘yes’ on sales and use tax
to move Gallia fairgrounds
Dear Editor,
I urge registered voters of Gallia County to
vote “yes” for the sales tax to relocate the Gallia
County Fairgrounds.
In thinking of our future generation’s safety and
welfare, these monies would provide the means to
build the brand new facilities to ensure the danger
of ﬂooding to no longer be a threat.
Also, with the new facilities, the present ﬂea
market would be out of the danger of ﬂooding
and would have the ability to expand. Plus, other
groups and events would have the possibility of
year-round use with this type of facility.
Again, I can’t express enough how important
your vote is to the citizens of Gallia County.

Filing taxes just
got a little easier
By Marcus Geiger
For Ohio Valley Publishing

Now that it’s March,
your annual tax
ﬁling deadline is fast
approaching. If you
receive Social Security
beneﬁts, one of the
documents you need to
ﬁle your federal income
tax return is your
Social Security Beneﬁt
Statement (Form SSA1099/1042S).
Your Social
Security beneﬁts
may be taxable. This
includes monthly
retirement, survivor,
and disability beneﬁts.
About one-third of
people receiving
Social Security
beneﬁts must pay
taxes on some of these
beneﬁts, depending
on the amount of
their taxable income.
This usually happens
if you have other
substantial income
— such as wages, selfemployment, interest,
dividends, and other
taxable income that
must be reported on
your tax return — in
addition to your Social
Security beneﬁts. You
will never have to pay
taxes on more than 85
percent of your Social
Security beneﬁts, based
on Internal Revenue
Service (IRS) rules.
To ﬁnd out if you
must pay taxes on
your beneﬁts, you
will need your Social
Security Beneﬁt
Statement (Form SSA1099/1042S). You
should automatically
receive it in the mail
each January. It shows
the total amount of
beneﬁts you received
from Social Security
in the previous year so
you know how much
Social Security income
to report to the IRS
on your tax return.
The beneﬁt statement
is not available for
people who receive
Supplemental Security
Income (SSI), as SSI
payments are not

taxable.
Whether you ﬁle your
taxes early or wait until
the deadline, Social
Security makes it easy
to obtain a replacement
beneﬁt statement if
you didn’t receive one
or misplaced it. You
can get an instant
replacement easily
by using your secure
online my Social
Security account.
If you don’t already
have an account, you
can create one in
minutes. Follow the
link below to the my
Social Security page,
and select “Sign In or
Create an Account.”
Once you are logged in,
select the “Replacement
Documents” tab
to obtain your
replacement 1099
or 1042S beneﬁt
statement. You can also
use your personal my
Social Security account
to keep track of your
earnings each year,
manage your beneﬁts,
and more.
You can also obtain
a replacement beneﬁt
statement by calling
us at 1-800-772-1213
(TTY 1-800-325-0778),
Monday through Friday
from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.,
or by contacting your
local Social Security
Ofﬁce. If you live
outside of the United
States, please contact
your nearest U.S.
Embassy or Consulate.
But by going online
you can print your

and not have to wait to

Today’s Highlight in
History:
On March 13, 1996,
a gunman burst into an
elementary school in
Dunblane, Scotland, and

children and one teacher
before killing himself.
On this date:
In 1781, the seventh

States Army with the
promise they would be
set free.

In 1901, the 23rd
President of the United
States, Benjamin Harrison, died in Indianapolis
at age 67.
In 1925, the Tennessee General Assembly
approved a bill prohibiting the teaching of the

Primary

Ohio Lottery Cash Explosion
show remains wildly popular

One of the teen plaintiffs, 17-yearold Brian Bush of Columbus, said he
was “super ecstatic” about the ruling.
“I think it’s my right to be able
to vote,” Bush said in an interview.
“Obviously, local and state elections
are just as important. But for something as big as the president, I feel
like I should be able to voice my opinion in it.”
A federal judge earlier Friday temporarily halted the lawsuit brought by
Sanders’ campaign and several teen
voters, saying the court would abstain
from a decision in the case until the
state court ruled on the similar lawsuit.

From Page 1A

But the delegates aren’t assuming
any ofﬁce, argued the teens’ attorney,
Rachel Bloomekatz. They serve as the
voters’ surrogates at a party’s nominating convention. Plus, she said, the
names of delegates corresponding to
each presidential candidate do not
appear on the primary ballot.

Southern, Eastern lead ‘OVP 12’ Girls
By Paul Boggs

pboggs@civitasmedia.com

Bryan Walters | OVP Sports

Southern junior Faith Teaford, middle, releases a shot attempt between five Wahama
defenders during a February 4 TVC Hocking girls basketball contest in Racine, Ohio.

GALLIPOLIS — Meigs
County rivals Southern and
Eastern — including splitting
the top honors — earned the
most representation on the
2016 Ohio Valley Publishing
“12” Girls Basketball Team,
which has been announced.
Southern and Eastern each
enjoyed 16-5 regular seasons,
as Southern secured three
spots on the “OVP 12” squad,
while Eastern amounted a
pair of ﬁrst-team choices.
In dividing the top awards,
Faith Teaford of Southern
was chosen as the Player of
the Year, while John Burdette
of Eastern was tabbed as the

Coach of the Year.
The “OVP 12” girls — and
boys — basketball teams
consist of ﬁve ﬁrst-team selections and seven second-team
selections.
The 12-player lists are chosen by members of the Ohio
Valley Publishing sports staff.
Teaford, a six-foot, one-inch
junior, averaged 16.9 points
and 10.8 rebounds per game.
The Lady Tornadoes, paced
by Teaford, also captured an
Ohio Division IV sectional
championship.
Burdette guided Eastern to
as far as the Division IV district championship game.
Both Teaford and Burdette
were unanimous POY and
COY respective choices.

The Lady Eagles’ only
selections were ﬁrst-teamers
Laura Pullins and Elizabeth
Collins — a 5-10 junior and
six-foot sophomore respectively.
Pullins averaged 10.3 points
and 6.1 rebounds per game,
while Collins collected 5.5 points
and 4.1 rebounds per bout.
Rounding out the ﬁve-lady
ﬁrst team were seniors Leia
Moore of River Valley and
Mikayla Poling of South Gallia, as Moore stood 5-foot-10
and Poling 5-foot-9.
Moore averaged a doubledouble 10.6 points and 10.1
rebounds, while Poling posted
12.5 points.

Hannibal River’s
Caretti named Ohio
Ms. Basketball
COLUMBUS, Ohio
(AP) — Ohio’s 2016
Ms. Basketball went
from virtual unknown to
coveted college prospect
nearly overnight last
summer.
So maybe it was
appropriate that Hannibal River High School’s
Jensen Caretti wasn’t
familiar with the Associated Press award until
she was told she was a
nominee.
“I heard of it today,”
she said with a laugh
Monday.
“It’s a pretty big
honor,” she said, adding, “It feels great being
nominated.”
On Wednesday, she
was announced as the
29th winner of the statewide award, continuing
an amazing rise over the
past year that started on
the AAU circuit.
“I went to one tournament in Cincinnati and
there were a lot of (Division I) college coaches
there and they weren’t

allowed to contact me
until the day after the
tournament was over.
Then they all just called
at once on one day,”
she said. “I had like 30
coaches call me in one
day, so it was pretty
hectic.”
A 6-foot-1 guard,
Caretti said she prefers
passing to scoring, but
she is adept at both, and
much more.
She averaged 25.1
points, 12 rebounds, six
assists and four steals
per game in the regular
season, and the Pilots
ﬁnished 21-5 with a loss
to perennial powerhouse
Berlin Hiland in a Division IV district ﬁnal.
Her next stop will be
Ohio State, where she
signed in November
after ﬁelding more than
50 offers from Division
I schools. Almost none
of them knew about her
when her junior season
wrapped up last year.

Ohio Valley Christian senior Marshall Hood (24) releases a shot attempt between a trio of Wellston defenders during a February 8 nonconference boys basketball contest in Gallipolis, Ohio.

Defenders lead ‘OVP 12’ Boys
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@civitasmedia.com

GALLIPOLIS — Ohio Valley
Christian School — buoyed by its
Ohio Christian School Athletic
Association state championship —
swept the top honors on the 2016
Ohio Valley Publishing “12” Boys
Basketball Team, which has been
announced.
The Defenders captured the
OCSAA state championship on
Feb. 27, and enjoyed a ﬁnal 22-6
record, which included their tournament triumphs.
OVCS swept the Player of the
Year and Coach of the Year honors,
with six-foot ﬁve-inch senior Marshall Hood winning the POY and
head coach Steve Rice recording
the COY.
Both Hood and Rice were unanimous POY and COY respective
choices.
The “OVP 12” boys — and girls
— basketball teams consist of ﬁve
ﬁrst-team selections and seven
second-team selections.
The 12-player lists are chosen by
members of the Ohio Valley Pub-

lishing sports staff.
Hood headlined the Defenders’
state title team, and averaged 18.1
points per game — along with 11
rebounds and four blocks.
Four other seniors — Gallia
Academy’s Wes Jarrell, South Gallia’s Joseph Ehman, and the Meigs
duo of Kaileb Sheets and Colton
Lilly — joined Hood on the ﬁrst
team.
Jarrell — standing six-foot fourinches tall — averaged 16.3 points
and seven rebounds per game,
while Ehman — at 5-10 — averaged a hefty 20.1 points per game
and six-and-a-half rebounds.
The Marauder teammates — the
6-1 Sheets and 6-2 Lilly — averaged 15 and 14 points per game
respectively.
Lilly landed seven-and-a-half
rebounds per game, while Sheets
snared ﬁve.
Seven separate schools were represented by the seven second-team
slots, including Elijah McDonald of
Ohio Valley Christian.
McDonald, a 5-8 junior, averaged
12.4 points per game.
Landon Hutchinson, South Gal-

lia’s second selection, was a 6-2
senior averaging 13.9 points and
9.4 rebounds.
The remaining ﬁve players
— Philip Hoffman of Wahama,
Jett Facemyer of Eastern, Tyler
Twyman of River Valley, Bradley
Gibbs of Point Pleasant and Tylar
Blevins of Southern — were those
schools’ only honoree.
Hoffman — a 6-3 junior — averaged 15.3 points and 6.2 rebounds
per game, while Gibbs — a 6-5
senior — paced Point Pleasant
with 13.4 points while also grabbing four rebounds.
The 6-3 junior Facemyer ﬁnished
with 23.7 points per game — the
highest ppg average of any player
in the Ohio Valley area — and 6.2
rebounds.
Twyman and Blevins missed the
ﬁrst 11 games due to injury and
Ohio transfer rules respectively,
but both averaged 14.5 points.
Twyman was a 5-11 senior and
Blevins a 6-1 junior, as Twyman
managed 5.4 rebounds and Blevins
4.5.

Cleveland Browns
releases Manziel
after 2 seasons
CLEVELAND (AP) — Johnny Manziel’s tightest
spiral with the Browns was a downward one.
Less than two years after arriving armed with a
Heisman Trophy, full of swagger and touted as a savior for this football-frenzied city’s sagging franchise,
Manziel was shown the door — a rude exit for the
overhyped quarterback.
Manziel, who did as much partying as playing during two drama-ﬁlled seasons with the Browns, was
waived Friday.
Welcomed as a hero, he leaves as one of the biggest
busts in team — and perhaps — NFL history.
Johnny Be Gone.
The Browns had hoped to recoup something for
the former Texas A&amp;M star, but after failing to ﬁnd a
team interested in trading for him the past two days,
the team ﬁnally cut ties. Cleveland announced its
move with a simple sentence: “The Cleveland Browns
have waived Johnny Manziel.” The Browns included
his pedestrian statistics but not any comment.
Actions, not words. That was the same mantra they
asked of Manziel, who always promised to change his
behavior but never did.
The Browns drafted Manziel in the ﬁrst round in
2014, hoping he could solve their long-term issue at
quarterback and turn around a team that has only
been to the playoffs once since 1999 and never to the
Super Bowl.
Instead, Johnny Football was a two-year headache
that wouldn’t go away.
“I’d like to thank the Browns for the opportunity
they gave me — nearly two years ago, we all hoped
that we were building what could be a championship
team for Cleveland,” Manziel said in a statement
released by his publicist. “I will always remember the
support I received from the organization, my teammates and especially the fans.”

Valentine leads No. 2 Michigan St. past Buckeyes
INDIANAPOLIS (AP)
— All Denzel Valentine
wanted Friday night was
a win at the Big Ten Tournament.
The glitzy numbers
didn’t mean a thing.
After ﬁnishing with
19 points, nine rebounds
and eight assists in an
81-54 blowout over Ohio
State in the quarterﬁnals,
the Big Ten player of the
year explained what No.
2 Michigan State is really
after — a record-tying
ﬁfth tourney crown, a
No. 1 seed in next week’s
NCAA Tournament, and,
yes, the school’s third
national championship.
“We didn’t accomplish
one of our goals, to win
the Big Ten championship
outright, and we’re kind
of mad about it,” Valentine said. “The seniors,
me and Matt (Costello)
never won a Big Ten
championship outright,
so we’re kind of mad right
now and we’ve got something to play for.”
The motivated Spartans (27-5) are locked
in, especially Valentine
who could have had a
rare triple double if coach
Tom Izzo hadn’t put him
on the bench for the ﬁnal
5:28 of the game.
But Valentine knew
he could use the rest

and spent the rest of
the game cheering for
his teammates as they
rolled to their 11th win
in 12 games. Next up is
either No. 18 Maryland
or Nebraska in Saturday’s
second semiﬁnal game.
And in a tournament
that has been full of surprises, Valentine and the
Big Ten regular-season
runners-up look like the
closest thing to a sure
bet.
Valentine did his part in
short, quick bursts Friday.
He scored 10 points
in an early 13-3 run that
allowed the Spartans to
take a 10-point lead less
than 6½ minutes into the
game. He made a 3-pointer in an 8-0 spurt to open
the second half and did all
the tidy little things later
in a 10-4 run that helped
extend the lead to 54-34
with 13:07 to play.
Michigan State pushed
the lead to as much as 28
in the second half.
So, naturally, Valentine
started looking at the bigger picture.
“Our goal when we got
here was to win a national
championship and we
haven’t accomplished that
yet,” Valentine said. “I
think we have the perfect
team to do it this year,
and we’re really hungry to

do that this year.”
Their defense looked
ready, too.
JaQuan Lyle was the
only Ohio State player
to reach double ﬁgures.
He ﬁnished with 10, and
Michigan State converted
14 Ohio State turnovers
into 21 points.

The Buckeyes (20-13)
couldn’t get closer than
14 after Michigan State’s
initial second-half ﬂurry,
and now all coach Thad
Matta and his team can
do is wait to see if they’ll
even get a chance to play
in next week’s NCAA
Tournament.

“When you play a great
team, every time you
make a mistake, they
make you pay,” Matta
said.
NOTES: The Buckeyes have played ﬁve
games against teams that
reached last year’s Final
Four and are now 1-4. In

addition to three losses
to the Spartans, they also
lost to Wisconsin. The
lone win came against
Kentucky in December.
… The Spartans are one
win away from playing for
their third consecutive
Big Ten tourney title in
Indianapolis.

AP SPORTS BRIEFS

Middle Tennessee
tops Marshall 99-90
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — Jaqawn Raymond
scored 20 points and second-seeded Middle Tennessee raced into the Conference USA tournament championship game with a 99-90 win over third-seeded
Marshall on Friday night.
Perrin Buford had 18 points and Reggie Upshaw
had 17 as all ﬁve starters had at least 12 points in the
highest-scoring game of the season for the Blue Raiders (23-9), who face ﬁfth-seeded Old Dominion in the
title game.
Austin Loop and Stevie Browning had 20 points
apiece for Marshall (17-16).
MTSU used a 10-0 run late in the ﬁrst half to take a
39-29 lead into the break.
Marshall never cut the deﬁcit to single digits in the
second half until outscoring MTSU 11-2 in the last 43
seconds.
The Blue Raiders shot 58.5 percent (31 of 53) and
made 31 of 41 free throws while the Thundering Herd
was just 9 of 19 from the foul line.

Browns sign free
agents Bailey, Tuggle
CLEVELAND (AP) — The Browns have signed
free agent offensive lineman Alvin Bailey and linebacker Justin Tuggle.
After doing nothing in free agency — other than
waiving troubled quarterback Johnny Manziel and
losing four starters — the Browns ﬁnally added some
depth on Friday.
The versatile 6-foot-3 Bailey has appeared in 42
regular-season games and made eight starts for Seattle. He also has postseason experience, making two
starts.
Bailey has played both tackle positions and left
guard and will provide depth up front for the Browns,
who earlier this week lost three-time Pro Bowl center
Alex Mack and right tackle Mitchell Schwartz in free
agency.

Tuggle made 11 starts for Houston. The 6-foot-3,
245-pounder can also play special teams. His father,
Jessie, played 14 seasons for Atlanta and made ﬁve
Pro Bowls.
In addition to Mack and Schwartz, the Browns
elected not to re-sign safety Tashaun Gipson or wide
receiver Travis Benjamin.

Kevin Harvick wants to stay
with SHR despite Ford switch

a mentor to rookie punter Bradley Pinion last season.
Dawson, who will enter his 18th NFL season and
fourth with San Francisco after spending his ﬁrst 14
years with the Browns, made 24 of 27 ﬁeld goals last
season including a long of 54 yards.

DENVER (AP) — The Broncos have acquired Mark
Sanchez from Philadelphia, a move Denver general
manager John Elway calls the ﬁrst step toward replacing the retired Peyton Manning.
The Super Bowl champions were left without an
experienced quarterback this week when ﬁve-time
MVP Manning retired and Brock Osweiler signed
with Houston as a free agent. So they have turned
to Sanchez, who was acquired for a conditional 2017
draft pick.

Johnson escapes injury after steering wheel comes off
AVONDALE, Ariz. (AP) —
Jimmie Johnson escaped injury when his steering wheel
came off and he crashed into
the wall at full speed in NASCAR Sprint Cup qualifying
Friday.
Kyle Busch later won the
pole for the race Sunday at
Phoenix International Speedway.
Johnson was on his second
lap in the ﬁnal round on the
mile oval when he couldnt
turn and his car rammed into
the second-turn wall. The
right front of the Hendrick
Motorsports’ No. 48 car
took the most damage and
Johnson was able to climb
out after the car slid onto the
grass.
The six-time Cup champion
was examined and released
from the inﬁeld care center.
Johnson didn’t explain the
reason for the crash in media
interviews, but later took to
Twitter.
“About qualifying, the
steering wheel came off,”
Johnson said. “I know my
interview was vague, but
wanted to tell the team ﬁrst.
I’m thankful for soft walls.”
Johnson was helped by
recent safety initiatives,
including SAFER barriers
and car improvements.

potential Division I prospect on his hands — “by
far the best player I’ve
ever coached” — and he

many others to notice.

The pit crew of Jimmie Johnson look over the damage to Johnson’s car after
he crashed in Turn 2 during NASCAR Sprint Cup Series qualifying at Phoenix
International Raceway on Friday in Avondale, Ariz. Johnson was on his second lap
in the final round when he couldn’t turn and his car rammed into the second-turn
wall. Johnson, who was not injured, later explained on Twitter that the steering
wheel came off.

“We’ll have to get to the
bottom of it,” Johnson said.
“Just a really hard impact to
the outside wall. Thankful
that we have SAFER barriers and soft walls. But very
disappointed because we had
such a fast race car.”
After the red ﬂag to clean
up the wreck, Busch won his
18th career pole with a lap
of 138.387 mph. It’s Busch’s
ﬁrst pole at Phoenix since
2012.

“I guess it takes being
in the right spot at the
right time for people to
see,” he said.
It happened when they
played in a tournament
last year and a Clevelandarea team saw her, which
led to her getting connected with the AAU
coach who took her last
summer and helped her
get exposure, Isaly said.
That led to a recruiting

“We were getting our butts
smokes a few years ago,”
Busch said. “When this
place was repaved we obviously struggled really bad.
But we’ve known to do a
really a big push on this place
because it’s the second-to-last
race in the Chase.”
Carl Edwards qualiﬁed second and Daytona 500 champion Denny Hamlin third,
giving Toyota the top three
spots for the race Sunday.

process that her mother,
Sharon, describes as

The Hendrick driver said he

“I’m really confused,” he
said.
Kahne’s car was towed to

The driver who has dominated at Phoenix, didn’t in
