“Torch Run for Life” left the Meigs County Courthouse as they carried the Torch down Court Street.

‘Transplant Games of America’
By Michael Hart
For the Sentinel

POMEROY — The “Torch Run
for Life” passed through Meigs this
month as a large group of residents
carried the Transplant Games of
America Torch from the Pomeroy
Courthouse to the Bureau of Motor
Vehicles.
The non-proﬁt Lifeline of Ohio
organized this leg of the torch’s
journey, involving locals who have
been touched by organ and tissue
donations.
Jessica Petersen, media coordinator for Lifeline, said the goal of
her organization and ultimately
the Transplant Games is to “raise
awareness of all the good that is
done by transplants and increase
the number of organ donors.”
Over two dozen people gathered
in the Common Pleas Courtroom
of Judge I. Carson Crow recently
for a brief presentation on the
Transplant Games mission and
goals. Most of the attendees had
been involved with the transplantation as donors, recipients, or relatives of either.
Lifeline staff outlined the purpose of the games and the current
state of organ donation in the
county.
“About 123,000 individuals are
on the national waiting list for lifesaving organ transplants, and the
need for more registered organ,
eye and tissue donors in America
is critical. Twenty-two people each
day — men, women and children
— die for lack of an available
organ,” the group said.
They pointed out the impact a
single donor can have, “potentially
saving the lives of eight people
and enhance the lives of up to 50
more.”
The affects were more personal
for several participants.
“Our daughter received a liver 15

years ago, which changed our lives.
We volunteer with lifeline whenever we can,” said Barb Crow.
Staff members from the court of
common pleas were also present
to express their support for the
event. Following the ceremony,
the group marched down the three
ﬂights of stairs to exit the courthouse, then headed down Court
Street and east along Main Street.
They carried signs encouraging
cars to honk in solidarity, which

led to a chorus of passing automobiles.
Lifeline of Ohio is a nonproﬁt
that promotes and coordinates
organ, eye and tissue donations.
“We are designated by the U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services to work in 37 counties
in southern Ohio and two in West
Virginia,” said Petersen as she
elaborated on the role of the organization. “We work directly with

of marijuana because it hasn’t been
cleared by the Food and Drug
Administration. It is still a Schedule I substance, deemed unsafe
and addictive by the FDA. For that
reason, medical marijuana bills,
including Ohio’s, generally call for
physicians to “recommend,” not
“prescribe,” medical pot.
Burke said pharmacies, not individual pharmacists, are certiﬁed
by the DEA, so the requirement
retained under Tuesday’s bill revisions for a pharmacist to be placed
at every dispensary wouldn’t be
risky. He said they’re not in jeopardy of losing a license or being
prosecuted for distributing marijuana.
In prepared testimony Tuesday,
Ohio Pharmacists Association
director Ernest Boyd said his
members had been on the fence
about supporting pharmacists
even working at medical marijuana
dispensaries because of the drug’s
legal status — let alone the pharmacy board overseeing the whole
program. But it’s been decided that
if medical marijuana legalization is
inevitable, pharmacists have a role
in keeping it safe, he said.

Father, son indicted on charges
of chaining girl in basement
TOLEDO (AP) — A father and son in Ohio have
been indicted on charges accusing them of chaining
a teenage girl in their basement as punishment.
Timothy and Esten Ciboro (SIH’-bohr-oh) were
indicted Tuesday on kidnapping and child endangering charges.
The pair was arrested last week by Toledo police
after the girl ran from the home.
The girl is a relative of the two men and told
police she used a spare key to unlock herself.
Timothy Ciboro told media outlets that the allegations aren’t true and that the girl wasn’t mistreated.
But he wouldn’t answer questions on whether he
had chained her.
Ciboro also said the girl wanted to be away from
the house and with people who weren’t good for her.
His 27-year-old son has not responded to requests
for comment.

Bill Cosby is
ordered to stand
trial in sex case
By Maryclaire Dale
and Michael R. Sisak
Associated Press

NORRISTOWN, Pa. — She called him “Mr. Cosby”
and considered him a trusted friend and mentor.
But 20 minutes after Bill Cosby offered her three blue
pills and told her to take them with the wine he had set
out, Andrea Constand’s legs began to wobble “like jelly,”
her eyes went blurry and her head began to throb.
Cosby helped her to a couch in his living room, where
she later realized he violated her as she lay helplessly in
a stupor, she told police in 2005.
On Tuesday, a judge ordered the 78-year-old Cosby
to stand trial on sexual assault charges on the strength
of Constand’s decade-old police statement, sparing the
former Temple University employee the need to testify
at the preliminary hearing.
Cosby could get 10 years in prison if convicted in
the case, the only criminal charges brought against
the comedian out of the barrage of allegations that
he drugged and molested dozens of women over ﬁve
decades. He is free on $1 million bail.

THEIR VIEW

Eliminate
big money
from politics
An unknown politician recently ran for U.S. Congress and won. He had previously served as a county
Judge in a remote part of the Congressional district.
Most everyone overlooked him until midway through
the election. The television was burning up with TV advertisements promoting him. A young man in Texas
who had inherited a bunch of money
had created his own Super Pac and was
spending over $500,000 on helping the
candidate get elected. He was elected
and is in Congress today. Big money
enabled big advertising.
Glenn
Most of us who watched 60 Minutes
Mollette
Contributing a few weeks ago were appalled by the
Columnist
story about our telemarketing Congress. Our congressional representatives have literally become telemarketers sitting in cubicles in a designated telemarketing
building calling donors and asking for money. According to the 60 Minutes report our elected ofﬁcials are
expected to spend “hours” every day calling from a
list and reciting a script to solicit contributions of at
least $18,000 a day according to Representative David
Jolly of Florida. I wouldn’t have believed this except
60 Minutes interviewed him and other elected congressional representatives who afﬁrmed this reality
and admit to this part of the job.
Most of us realize that a career politician has to
always fundraise and politic for the next election.
However, our congressional ofﬁcials going to a designated building and dialing for dollars every day is taking away from what we elected them to do- represent
us.
We have lots of problems in America. Our military
and veterans are neglected. Our highways are neglected. Our bridges are neglected. Obamacare is a disaster. Our jobs are going to China and Mexico. Poverty
is on the increase. Millions are hoping for a $15 an
hour burger-ﬂipping job. Thirty years ago people got
jobs that fed their families, provided health care and
a real retirement. Today, Americans can’t afford to
retire. We have 75-year-old people working minimum
wage jobs just to buy their groceries or pay their rent.
College students are graduating with massive debts
that take years to repay. What are our representatives
doing in Congress to help us? Nothing. They are
sitting in cubicles for hours each day trying to raise
money for their party so they can keep their jobs two
or six more years.
Super pacs are a bad idea. A corporation or anyone
can donate massive amounts of money to a super pac.
This unlimited stream of money is used in repeated
television advertising to beat us down or brainwash us
to the special interest’s way of thinking.
Bernie Sanders will not be our next president. However, a candidate running a competitive campaign like
he has run with the average contribution being $27 is
to be applauded.
How do you know for whom to vote in the upcoming primaries and general election? Take note of who
the super pacs are promoting and not promoting. Our
best representation in Washington may be the one
they are not promoting. If he or she can be elected,
maybe they will not have to spend all their time down
the street at the telemarketing center. Maybe they will
actually have time to represent us. Of course without
the big money they probably can’t get elected and this
takes us back to our problem of big money in politics.

TODAY IN HISTORY...
Today is Wednesday,
May 25, the 146th day of
2016. There are 220 days
left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in
History:
On May 25, 1916, the
Chicago Tribune published an interview with
Henry Ford in which the
automobile industrialist
was quoted as saying,
“History is more or less
bunk. It’s tradition. We
don’t want tradition. We
want to live in the present and the only history
that is worth a tinker’s
dam is the history we
make today.”
On this date:
In 1787, the Constitutional Convention began
at the Pennsylvania State
House (Independence
Hall) in Philadelphia
after enough delegates
had shown up for a quorum.
In 1810, Argentina
began its revolt against
Spanish rule with the
forming of the Primera
Junta in Buenos Aires.
In 1935, Babe Ruth
hit his last three career
home runs — nos. 712,
713 and 714 — for the
Boston Braves in a game
against the Pittsburgh
Pirates. (The Pirates
won, 11-7.)
In 1946, Transjordan

(now Jordan) became a
kingdom as it proclaimed
its new monarch, Abdullah I.
In 1959, the U.S.
Supreme Court, in State
Athletic Commission v.
Dorsey, struck down a
Louisiana law prohibiting interracial boxing
matches. (The case had
been brought by Joseph
Dorsey Jr., a black professional boxer.)
In 1961, President
John F. Kennedy told
Congress: “I believe that
this nation should commit itself to achieving the
goal, before this decade
is out, of landing a man
on the moon and returning him safely to the
earth.”
In 1968, the Gateway
Arch in St. Louis was
dedicated by Vice President Hubert Humphrey
and Interior Secretary
Stewart Udall.
In 1977, the ﬁrst “Star
Wars” ﬁlm (retroactively
designated “Episode
IV: A New Hope”) was
released by Twentieth
Century Fox Film Corp.
In 1979, 273 people
died when an American
Airlines DC-10 crashed
just after takeoff from
Chicago’s O’Hare Airport. Six-year-old Etan
Patz disappeared while

on his way to a school
bus stop in lower Manhattan.
Ten years ago: President George W. Bush and
British Prime Minister
Tony Blair held a White
House news conference
in which they acknowledged making costly mistakes in Iraq, but vowed
to keep troops there until
the fragile new government took hold. Former
Enron Corp. chiefs Kenneth Lay and Jeffrey
Skilling were convicted
in Houston of conspiracy
and fraud for the company’s downfall. (Lay died
in July 2006 from heart
disease and his convictions were vacated; Skilling was resentenced to
14 years in prison after
his original 24-year sentence was overturned.)
Pope Benedict XVI began
a four-day pilgrimage to
Poland, the homeland
of his predecessor, Pope
John Paul II.

Meigs girls 6th in D-II district meet
By Paul Boggs

ROCKSPRINGS — The
Meigs Marauders, the Gallia
Academy Blue Angels and
the River Valley Raiders all
ﬁnished in the middle of the
pack at last week’s Division
II Southeast District girls
track and ﬁeld meet — held
Tuesday and Saturday inside
Meigs High School’s Farmers
Bank Stadium.
Of the 13 teams which
scored at least one point, the
Lady Marauders managed
a sixth-place ﬁnish for 59
points — exactly 20 points
ahead of the seventh-place

place Lady Raiders (30).

The Marauders, Blue Angels
and Raiders did advance
several athletes to this week’s
regional meet, which will take
place on Thursday and Saturday at Athens High School’s
Rutter Field.
The top four placers in each
event at the district meet
qualify for the regional meet.
Leading the way for the
Lady Marauders were a pair
of freshmen — Kassidy Betzing and Taylor Swartz.
Beginning with the long
jump championship, Betzing captured the title while
Swartz was the runner-up
— as those two in one event
earned 18 of Meigs’ 59 total
points.
Betzing’s best leap was

16-feet and four inches, while
Swartz leapt 15-feet, nine
and one-fourth inches for
second.
Betzing also qualiﬁed for
the regional by placing third
in the 100m dash in 13.59
seconds, while Swartz did
the same in the 200m dash in
29.06 ticks.
The tandem also made
up half of the Marauders’
4x100m relay team, which
was runner-up to Alexander
and qualiﬁed for the regional.
Betzing ran the second leg
and Swartz was the anchor,
as they were joined by fellow
freshman Cassidy Atkinson
on the opening leg — and
junior third leg Sky Brown.

Lowry, DeRozan
lead Raptors
to win over Cavs
TORONTO (AP)
— A series that once
looked lopsided is now
even.
Kyle Lowry scored 35
points, including a driving layup in the ﬁnal
minute, and DeMar
DeRozan had 32 as the
Toronto Raptors evened
the Eastern Conference
Finals by beating the
Cleveland Cavaliers
105-99 in Game 4 on
Monday night.
DeMarre Carroll
scored 11 points and
Bismack Biyombo had
14 rebounds as Toronto
improved to 8-2 at
home this postseason
and got back on level
terms after big losses in
Games 1 and 2.
“We’ve been counted
out, and we like that
challenge,” DeRozan
said.
The next challenge
for Toronto? Game 5
on Wednesday night in
Cleveland, where the
Raptors are 0-3 this
season, losing by a combined 72 points.
“We have to continue
to make sure that when
they punch, we punch
back,” Lowry said. “And
if they punch three
times, we punch four
times.”
The Raptors are 2-6
on the road in the playoffs.
After a 10-0 start to
these playoffs, the Cavaliers are counting on
home court advantage
to help them reach their

second straight Finals.
“Going back home we
have to play a lot better
and I think we will,”
LeBron James said.
Cleveland lost consecutive playoff games to
an Eastern Conference
opponent for the ﬁrst
time since dropping the
ﬁnal three games of the
conference semiﬁnals to
Boston in 2010.
“We had a few defensive breakdowns that
you can’t have down the
stretch of a game, especially in the playoffs,”
Cavs coach Tyronn Lue
said. “They executed
every time we made a
mistake.”
James scored 29
points and Kyrie Irving
had 26 for the Cavaliers,
who trailed by as many
as 18 points. Channing
Frye scored nine of his
12 points in the fourth
quarter.
Lowry scored nine in
the fourth and DeRozan
had 12, connecting on
ﬁve of six shots.
“It’s a cakewalk for
me when (Lowry) gets
going,” DeRozan said.
“It opens up everything.”
The Raptors led 78-69
to begin the fourth but
Frye made consecutive
3-pointers as Cleveland
opened the ﬁnal quarter
with an 8-0 run, cutting
it to 78-77. The Cavaliers
made their ﬁrst 11 shots
of the fourth quarter.

Meigs boys 5th in D-II district meet
By Paul Boggs

ROCKSPRINGS — The Meigs
Marauders, the Gallia Academy
Blue Devils and the River Valley
Raiders all ﬁnished in the middle
of the pack at last week’s Division
II Southeast District boys track
and ﬁeld meet — held Tuesday
and Saturday inside Meigs High
School’s Farmers Bank Stadium.
Of the 14 teams which scored
at least one point, the Marauders
managed a ﬁfth-place ﬁnish for
45.5 points — exactly two points
ahead of the sixth-place Raiders
(43) and nine-and-a-half points
ahead of eighth-place Gallia Academy (36).
The Marauders, Raiders and
Blue Devils did advance several
athletes to this week’s regional
meet, which will take place on
Thursday and Saturday at Athens
High School’s Rutter Field.
The top four in each event at
the district meet qualify for the
regional meet.
The Marauder men managed
to advance in the meet’s opening
event of the 4x800m relay — ﬁnishing fourth in eight minutes and
29 seconds, and edging out both
ﬁfth-place Gallia Academy (8:35)
and sixth-place River Valley (8:43)
in the process.
Jake Swindell — a senior —
ran the opening leg, followed by
juniors James Parsons (second)
and Dillon Mahr (anchor) and
freshman third leg Zach Bartrum.
Nate Hoover — a junior —

placed fourth in the 400m dash to
qualify for the regional, completing
the one lap in 52.49 seconds.
The other two Marauders to
advance both ﬁnished third in ﬁeld
events — junior Jared Kennedy
in the long jump and senior Nick
Combs in the shot put.
Kennedy’s best jump was 19-feet,
nine and one-quarter inches, while
Combs’ best throw was 43-feet and
two inches.
Kennedy ﬁnished third to Ethan
Tabor of Sheridan, who also won
the district championship in the
110m high hurdles — ahead of
River Valley’s Isaiah Beach.
The runner-up Beach, a junior,
was only a razor-thin ﬁve one-hundredths of a second (15.76) behind
Tabor (15.71).
In an even amazing closer ﬁnish in the 100m dash, River Valley
sophomore Andrew Moffett was
the runner-up to repeat district
champion and Wellston senior Forrest Hale.
Moffett and Hale had the same
11.71 times, but by breaking it
down to the microscopic thousandth of a second, Hale was
clocked at 11.701 seconds and Moffett at 11.704.
Oak Hill senior Willy Harris had
a fourth-place ﬁnish in 11.88 ticks.
While Moffett and Beach were
the Raiders’ only regional qualiﬁers, four Blue Devils advanced in
three events.
A pair of juniors, Isaiah Lester
and Kaleb Crisenbery, landed the
district championship and runner-up

honors respectively in the 800m run.
Lester ran a championship twolap time of two minutes and one
second, while Crisenbery was right
behind in 2:02.
Crisenbery claimed his second
district runner-up in the high jump,
clearing the bar at six-foot three
inches — and ﬁnishing a mere inch
(6-4) behind Alexander senior Seth
McPherson.
In addition, Lester and Crisenbery bookended the Blue Devils’
4x400m relay squad, which ran the
four laps in three minutes and 36
seconds and placed third.
Fellow junior Dylan Nunn was
the second leg, while sophomore
Zac Bokal was the third.
Harris was a double qualiﬁer by
placing second in the 200m dash
(23.59 seconds), while Oak Hill’s
Andrew Kerns claimed a regional
spot by ﬁnishing fourth (24.05)
— and preventing Moffett (24.15)
from double advancement.
Fairﬁeld Union and Sheridan
dominated the team standings, with
Fairﬁeld Union earning the championship with 147 points — and
Sheridan scoring second at 125.
Warren was third with 80 points,
followed by Athens in fourth with
48.
Fairland ﬁnished seventh with
37.5 points, as Oak Hill and South
Point were tied at 27 apiece.

Hoffman was the winning

“Philip (Hoffman) was just

Cullen said. “When he throws
like that and we play a little bit
of defense behind him, we’re a
hard out.”

The Wahama baseball team celebrates a 2-0 victory over Charleston Catholic, in
Monday’s Class A, Region 4 semifinal at J.C. Cook Field, in Mason.

Dominic Marsico suffered
the pitching loss for CCHS,
allowing one run, two earned,
on ﬁve hits and two walks,
while striking out two batters
in a complete game effort.
Eleven of the 18 outs recorded
by the Charleston Catholic
defense were via ground-out,
including the ﬁrst seven outs of
the night.
Arrington was 1-for-3 with
a double and one RBI to lead
the WHS offense, while Ricky
Kearns was 1-for-2 with one
run scored and one stolen base.
Hoffman was 1-for-3 with a
run scored, Hicks was 1-for-3
with a stolen base, while Oliver
singled once in two at-bats.
Dominic Martin was 1-for-3
with a double to lead CCHS at
the plate, while McKown was
1-for-2 with a stolen base.
For the game, Wahama had
two errors and five runners
left on base, while Charleston
Catholic had one error and

six runners stranded.
The White Falcons improve
to 2-1 against the Irish this
spring, as both teams won by a
4-1 count on the other’s home
ﬁeld, in the regular season.
Prior to last season when the
Red and White defeated CCHS
by a 6-4 count in the regional
semiﬁnal at Triana Field,
Charleston Catholic had eliminated Wahama in four of the
previous six postseasons.
Wahama — which snapped
a two-game losing skid with
the win — will host Gilmer
County in the Class A, Region
4 ﬁnal on Wednesday at 6 p.m.
The White Falcons will be playing for their seventh regional
championship against the 18-16
Titans, who defeated Williamstown by a 5-2 count in Monday’s other Class A, Region 4
semiﬁnal.

on Monday at Point Pleasant High School.

at 118 pitches and I think
he got a little tired there
at the end, started elevating the baseball. He made
a real good breaking-ball
pitch on (Matt) Harrison,
and Harrison had a great
piece of hitting and went
out and got it. I tip my
hat to the guy. He’s a
good hitter and is going
on scholarship to Marshall (University) to do
that. Then Abe elevated
the ball on Matt Jewell
and paid for it right
there,” said the coach.
“But Abe pitched one
heck of a ballgame. He
kept one of the top hitting teams in the state on
their heels all night long.
He mixed his pitches up
well and located them
well. He did a good job
of holding runners. You
can’t ask for anything
more out of Abe Stearns
to keep that group to
three runs.”
And, only one of
those was in the ﬁrst six
innings, providing chance
after chance for Point
Pleasant to take advantage.
It only did so once —
and in the opening at-bat.
“We scattered seven or

eight hits, but we started
hitting early and then we
let up later. It was the
opposite for them. They
didn’t hit early on, then
they picked things up
at the end of the game
when it really mattered. I
felt we had good at-bats,
we faced one heck of an
arm in Andrew Stone. He
pounded the strike zone
and his breaking-ball kept
our guys off-balance. We
are a better hitting group
than that, but that doesn’t
matter. We didn’t execute
with guys on base, we
didn’t get the job done
here and there and that’s
what made the difference
in the game,” said Blain.
“You don’t get second
chances in the regional
and unfortunately it’s oneand-done.”
The ﬁrst three Big
Blacks reached base
against Stone, as Chris
Lush had an inﬁeld hit,
Kaleb Beckner was hit by
a pitch, and Matt Richardson singled to left to
plate Lush.
But with runners on
second and third, Stone
struck back with back-toback strikeouts — before
inducing Cody Sockwell

into a 3-1 inning-ending
groundout.
In the second, Derek
King singled with two
outs, followed by James
Littlepage reaching on an
error and Justice Chapman singling with two
outs in the third.
In the fourth, Stearns
reached on the Wildcats’
other error, then Lush
reached on a two-out
inﬁeld hit for runners on
the corners.
Stone escaped all three
jams unscathed — before
getting out of arguably
the Big Blacks’ best scoring threat in the ﬁfth.
Richardson roped a
single to lead off, then
Stone hit Littlepage with
a pitch.
Chapman’s sacriﬁce
bunt moved Richardson
to third and Alex Smith,
pinch-running for Littlepage, to second — before
Blain called for the safety
squeeze play with Sockwell at the plate.
But Sockwell’s bunt
went directly to Stone,
who went home for the
force play and the out on
Richardson.
Stone ended the inning
on the next at-bat, inducing Stearns into another
3-1 groundout.
Blain explained the
squeeze attempt.
“We called for that
and I’m always trying to
think and trying to think
of ways to manufacture
runs. Right there, I
wanted to see if we could
get the bunt down. If we
get the bunt down the
ﬁrst-base line, I think it
works,” he said. “Unfortunately, we bunted the
ball right back to Stone,
who is an athlete and gets
the easy play at home.
Hindsight is 20-20 where
you think let Sockwell
swing away and see what
happens. But at the same
time, our hits were scarce
and at a premium at that
point. You have to execute against a team like
Nitro in that situation and
to not do that (execute
safety squeeze) then, that
hurt.”
It sure did, as Stone
— who struck out four —

sat the Big Blacks down
1-2-3 in the sixth and last.
Jewell had two of
Nitro’s seven hits,
although it combined
a Jacob Bradley inﬁeld
single, a hit batsman and
Bradley scoring on a wild
pitch for its opening run.
The game marked the
ﬁnal for 11 Point Pleasant
seniors —Lush, Beckner,
Richardson, Littlepage,
Chapman, Sockwell,
King, Tristan Austin,
Jordan Cunningham, Garrett Litchﬁeld and Trey
Tucker.
The regional semiﬁnal
appearance was the Big
Blacks’ third in a row —
all at the AAA level.
“I can’t question their
(Big Blacks) work ethic
or intensity because they
came to play tonight.
That’s a good group of
boys that we just had
right there,” said Blain.
“We’re saying goodbye to
11 seniors and they are
the bulk of our ballclub.
We lose some good pitching arms in there, we lose
our entire inﬁeld, and
almost our entire starting
lineup. These 11 seniors
are leaving a mark on this
program and are a good
solid foundation for what
we are trying to do here.
I think we’re turning a lot
of heads and getting a lot
of respect and setting a
very good foundation for
the future of this baseball
program. And they are
a huge part of that. It’s
been a privilege coaching them and I’m going
to miss the heck out of
them.”
Perhaps the most meaningful impact of the 11
seniors, Blain said, was
raising the program’s
expectations.
“It hurts, because
you’re in this game and
you think it’s going to go
your way and we’re going
to be able to get it done,”
he said. “This is a game
we really wanted and we
expected to win. And
expecting to win ballgames is something this
program is doing a better
job of now.”

Nyquist sick, won’t run in Belmont
NEW YORK (AP) — So
much for a rematch in the
Belmont Stakes.
Kentucky Derby winner
Nyquist won’t run in the
ﬁnal leg of the Triple Crown
after developing a fever and
having an elevated white
blood cell count, trainer
Doug O’Neill said Tuesday.
“He’s out because of sickness,” O’Neill said.
Any thoughts of a second
straight Triple Crown were
wiped in the Preakness last
Saturday when Exaggerator ﬁnally defeated Nyquist
after four previous losses.
A rematch in the Belmont
on June 11 would have been
the next best thing to a
Triple Crown attempt. Last
year, American Pharaoh
became the ﬁrst horse in 37
years to sweep the Derby,
Preakness and Belmont.
“He’s ﬁne, but he’s got an

elevated white blood cell
count,” O’Neill’s assistant
Jack Sisterson said from
Pimlico Race Course in
Baltimore, where Nyquist is
recovering. “We just want to
do right by him and get him
100 percent.”
Nyquist came into the
Preakness unbeaten in
eight races, including a 1
1/4-length win over Exaggerator in the Derby. Exaggerator turned the tables in
the Preakness, winning by
3 1/2 lengths over a sloppy
track with Nyquist ﬁnishing
third.
On Monday, Nyquist had
a temperature of 102 and
blood work was done. The
fever had dropped at some
point but was back up again
Tuesday, when results of
the blood work came back
Tuesday.
“Sometimes it happens

when a horse runs back
quick,” Sisterson said, referring to the short two-week
turnaround between the
Derby and Preakness. “For
races like these, horses have
to be on top of their game,
Unfortunately, there’ll be no
Belmont.”
Once Nyquist recovers, he
will be shipped back home
to California, with a plan
that could include a trip to
Saratoga for the Travers
Stakes.
This is not the ﬁrst time
Nyquist has been sidetracked. After winning the
Florida Derby on April 2,
the colt owned by J. Paul
Reddam was shipped to
Keeneland in Lexington,
Kentucky. His return to
training was delayed by an
elevated white blood cell
count. At that time, he had
no fever, was back on the

track in a few days and went
on to win the Derby on May
7.
In 2012, O’Neill’s Derby
and Preakness winner I’ll
Have Another was retired
the day before the Belmont
with a tendon injury and
missed a Triple Crown
chance.
Without Nyquist, the
1 1/2-mile Belmont loses
some of its luster, but Exaggerator can expect to take
on a number of rivals from
the Derby and Preakness.
Among them are Preakness
runner-up Cherry Wine and
ﬁfth-place ﬁnisher Lani,
Suddenbreakingnews (ﬁfth
in the Derby), Destin (sixth,
Derby) and Brody’s Cause
(seventh, Derby). Governor
Malibu, runner-up in the
Peter Pan at Belmont on
May 14, also is Belmont
bound.

AP SPORTS BRIEFS

Browns cut veteran
WR Brian Hartline

The Tar Heels beat the Hoosiers in an East Regional
semiﬁnal in March.
The only ACC team left out of the challenge this year is
Boston College, which ﬁnished last season in last place.

BEREA, Ohio (AP) — The Cleveland Browns cut veteran wide receiver Brian Hartline on Monday.
Hartline, 29, spent only one season with the Browns. A
native of nearby Canton, Ohio, he had 46 receptions for 523
yards and two touchdowns in 2015 after signing a two-year
deal worth $6 million, including $3 million guaranteed.
Cleveland will save $3 million against the salary cap.
The Browns drafted four receivers in April, including
their ﬁrst-round pick, Corey Coleman of Baylor.
Hartline spent his ﬁrst six NFL seasons with the Dolphins. His best seasons were 2012 and 2013, when he had
more than 1,000 yards receiving in both years.

“It wasn’t enough because
we got off to a horrible ﬁrst
half once again in this building
and you’re playing catch up the
whole game,” James said.
Frye’s errant 3-point attempt
at 4:12 was Cleveland’s ﬁrst
miss of the fourth. DeRozan
made two free throws at the
other end and, after another
miss by Frye, Carroll made one
of two to put Toronto up 99-96
with 3:23 to go.
A long 3 by Irving made
it 101-99 with 2:00 left, but
DeRozan answered with a driving bank shot at 1:33. Toronto

got the ball back after Biyombo
blocked J.R. Smith’s 3, and
Biyombo kept the offensive
possession alive by rebounding Lowry’s missed shot. After
a timeout, Lowry let the shot
clock wind down before driving
for the decisive layup, making
it 105-99 with 22 seconds to
go.
Toronto jumped out to a 13-5
lead as Cleveland missed eight
of its ﬁrst 10 shots. Following a
timeout, the Cavs made ﬁve of
their next six to cut the deﬁcit
but the Raptors led 27-24 after
one quarter.
Lowry scored 15 points in
the second, making three of
Toronto’s four 3-pointers, as
the Raptors opened a 57-41
halftime lead despite not shoot-

ing a single free throw in the
ﬁrst two quarters. It marked
the ﬁrst time a team led by 15
or more at halftime in a conference ﬁnals game without
shooting a free throw since
Game 2 of the 2001 East Finals
between Milwaukee and Philadelphia. The Bucks made two
of six from the line, the fewest
ever made in an NBA playoff
game at the time.
DeRozan shot Toronto’s ﬁrst
free throws at 6:13 of the third
after being tackled by Smith on
a drive. The foul drought came
after Raptors coach Dwane
Casey was ﬁned $25,000 for
criticizing the ofﬁcials following Toronto’s Game 3 win.
Fans cheered derisively
when Matthew Dellavedova

Meigs completed the lap in 52.95 seconds, trailing Alexander by only 48 onehundredths of a second.
The Lady Marauders’ 4x800m relay
foursome also advanced, running 10 minutes and 26 seconds to ﬁnish third.
A pair of freshmen — Madison Cremeans and Madison Fields — ran the
anchor and third legs respectively, while
junior Gracie Hoffman ran the opener
and sophomore Caitlyn Rest the second.
Hoffman, individually, placed third in
the 800m run in 2:31.
The Blue Angels also amassed a district championship, with junior Madi
Oiler winning the 300m hurdles in 46.49
seconds.
Oiler also anchored Gallia Academy’s
third-place 4x200m relay team, which
ran the two-lap race in 1:54 — and also
featured freshman opening leg Erin Lincoln, senior second leg Jamie Canﬁeld
and sophomore third leg Grace Martin.
That same quartet also qualiﬁed in the
4x100m relay, ﬁnishing fourth in 54.38.
Oiler opened the lap sprint, while
Martin was the second leg, Lincoln the
third and Canﬁeld the anchor.
The Blue Angels then completed the
sprint-relay qualiﬁers’ sweep, as they
were the runner-up to Fairﬁeld Union
(4:14.82) in the 4x400m.
Oiler anchored and Lincoln opened
again, with sophomore second leg Hailey
Deem and junior third leg Mary Watts
running a 4:19.
Sarah Moffett, a sophomore, paced
River Valley’s four-person regional contingent — ﬁnishing as district runner-up
in the 400m dash to Fairﬁeld Union’s
Skyler Kraft.
Moffett mustered a minute and twosecond time, as Kraft completed the lap
in almost an exact minute (59.98).
Moffett also ran the second leg for the
Lady Raiders’ 4x800m relay, which completed the distance race in 10-and-a-half
minutes to ﬁnish fourth.
Fellow sophomore Kenzi Baker
opened, junior Ieva Katkauskaite was
the third leg, and freshman Beth Gillman
anchored.
Sheridan scored 149.5 points to take
the girls team championship, while Fairﬁeld Union was the runner-up with 124.
Alexander (74 points) edged Warren
(73 points) for third, followed by Fairland (62.5 points) in ﬁfth.

was called for Cleveland’s ﬁrst
foul of the game at 8:56 of the
second.
NOT MUCH TO LOVE
After shooting 3 for 19 in
Game 3, Kevin Love shot 4 for
14 in Game 4. He ﬁnished with
10 points. Love did not play in
the fourth after appearing to
injure his left ankle when he
stepped on referee David Guthrie late in the third. “It didn’t
feel too great,” Love said. Lue
said Love’s health was “no concern.”
FAIR AND FOUL
Cleveland didn’t shoot any
free throws in the third quarter
and had just two in the fourth.
Twelve of Toronto’s 19 free

throws came in the fourth.
TIP-INS
Cavaliers: James and Irving
each had six assists. … Cleveland shot 3 for 23 from 3-point
range in the ﬁrst half. The
ﬁnished 13 for 41. . Cleveland’s
Dahntay Jones served a onegame suspension for hitting
Biyombo in the groin in Game
3.

Valanciunas was active but did
not play. He’s been out since
spraining his right ankle in the
third quarter of Game 3 against
Miami on May 7. … Toronto
is 10-1 in the playoffs when
holding opponents below 100
points.
