LANGSVILLE —
Ohio Horseman’s Meigs

ﬁrst “Ride for Wishes”
in 2015, and were so
pleased with the support they received, it
was agreed it would be
an annual ride.
This year, the event

11 at the AEP/Gaven
Equine Trail Area,
located at St. Rt. 124
in Langsville. Registration begins at 9 a.m.,
and the ride begins at
10 a.m.
Much like other fundraisers that feature
walks or runs, this
one is unusual. Riders

the wish of every child

condition come true.

The equine area of
the 6,885 acres was
undeveloped when
AEP/Gavin designated
the land for hunting
and fishing. When AEP
was approached by
the Meigs Chapter of
the Ohio Horsemans
Association to use
some of the land for
an equine area, they
agreed. Through
the efforts of club
members who have
volunteered their time
and resources, the
area now includes 19
miles of riding trails, an
arena, picnic shelter
and camp sites for use
by club members.

160,000 wishes to
children in the U.S.

riders who enjoyed the
well-kept trails that
wind through the area.

president of the
National Federation of

The audio label demonstration coincides

The new audio label
was developed by
AccessaMed. For the

prescription label reading more safe and convenient. The prescription bottle has a device
attached to it with a
button. Once the button
is pushed, the directions
for the medication are
spoken in a loud, clear
voice. Printed instructions are also located on
the bottle.
“Having Equal access
to all of the printed information which appears

“Another great thing
about Fruth Pharmacy

Baseball program to
provide new equipment,
a monetary contribution, invitations to free
instructional clinics, and
an opportunity for community members to earn
additional donations for
their league via a Test
Drive fundraiser.
“Playing the game
of baseball helps kids
develop skills like leadership, cooperation and
sportsmanship while
bringing families and
communities together
to show their support.
Smith Chevrolet and
Chevrolet Youth Baseball
are proud to participate
in a sport that brings so
many smiles to kids and
families in Gallipolis,”
said Cindy Epling, of
Smith Chevrolet. “Chev-

rolet believes that in play,
there are possibilities
and supports the spirit of
teamwork that baseball
instills in its players.”
This year marks Chevrolet’s Youth Baseball
program’s 11th year, and
since its introduction has
helped aid local teams,
beneﬁting more than 5
million young people
in communities where
Chevrolet’s customers
live, work and play. In
2015, more than 1,400
Chevrolet dealers participated across the country.
Smith Chevrolet will
present the Mason
County Little League
with an equipment kit
that includes useful items
such as bags, scorebooks,
catcher’s gear and Chevrolet Youth Baseball
T-shirts. The sponsorship also includes youth
clinics featuring current
and former MLB/MiLB

FIRST AMENDMENT
TO THE CONSTITUTION
OF THE UNITED STATES:
Congress shall make no law respecting an
establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of
speech, or of the press; or the right of the people
peaceably to assemble; and to petition the government for redress of grievances.

THEIR VIEW

‘Keep trying’ is
what Americans do
I often meet discouraged people. Recently I talked to a man unemployed after 17 years of stable
$80,000 a year pay.
He was working a minimum wage job and discouraged. I praised him for staying active, being
employed and keeping his mind busy, but I could
see the sadness in his eyes.
No one enjoys losing a job, ﬁghting disease,
being knocked down and feeling defeated. What
is going on with you today? Maybe you are having
a child that you did not plan to have. Maybe your
spouse or the love of your life has not worked out.
Possibly someone has disappointed you. Life is
ﬁlled with disappointments.
We’ve all been disappointed in Presidents, Congress, and frustrated with the world
in general. What can we do? Make
changes. Change is not always possible but when it is, you should.
Change is often the lesser of
choices. We get into ruts. We call it
stability. Stability is nice, but sometimes it can be a rut we don’t have
the courage to leave. People hang
Glenn

Mollette
Contributing negative lifestyles because fear holds
them back from going forward. We
Columnist
fear leaving the safety of the house to
face and conquer what may be in the
outside world.
When I was 24, I taught an older lady how to
swim. She had always feared the water but has
thanked me several times down throughout the
years. My youngest son had to take the driver’s
test three times. We stayed with it and we kept
practicing. Today he drives and travels anywhere
he wants to go.
The change you may want to make may be simple and subtle. Nobody may ever notice but you,
but you are the one who counts.
This summer, why not take some small risks?
I’m not talking about going over Niagara Falls in
a barrel. I’m talking about some steps forward in
your life, the kind of stuff you’ve thought about
doing, wanted to do but just didn’t have the heart
to try. Remember, it’s OK to fail quickly. Actually
it’s better to fail fast than to take ﬁve years to fail.
However, every now and then something clicks
well and you will look back and think, “I’m glad I
tried.”
What can Americans do this summer? Be willing to try. Be willing to change. Put your disappointments behind you. Some people will embrace
you, but not everybody is your friend, so get over
expecting overwhelming support about most
anything. If you are successful, people will jump
on the bandwagon but that comes later after all of
your trial and errors.
This summer, keep trying.

THEIR VIEW

What it takes to be an effective citizen
It’s so easy in a presidential election year to forget that our system is not
about a single person.
This year especially,
when the dynamics of the
presidential contest have
dominated news coverage
so thoroughly that even
the Senate and House
races have largely disappeared from view, the
crucial role that citizens
play — apart from serving
as voters in the presidential drama — isn’t even an
afterthought.
Yet effective citizenship
is the base on which our
representative democracy
rests. Our vitality as a
country depends on the
involvement of millions
of people in their neighborhoods and communities, in interest groups
and civic organizations,
in groups agitating for
change and groups defending the status quo.
So just what constitutes
effective citizenship? I
believe it’s made up of several elements.
First, a conﬁdent belief
that change is possible
— that the country can
indeed make progress over
time thanks to the efforts
both of ordinary people
and of political leaders.
In his recent speech at
Howard University, President Obama noted that
by almost every measure,
the country has moved
forward over the last three

decades. The poverty rate

it’s a tough one. For the
most part, we’re not going
to solve our challenges
in a single generation, so
we have to educate our
children and those who
come after us in the same
skill sets I’ve been talking
about.
That’s because, as I said
at the start, our representative democracy is not all
about the presidency. We
— you, me, and our fellow
citizens — are responsible
for the future of our neighborhoods and our nation.
Unless we all shoulder
the obligation to learn the
skills we need to shepherd
it into the future, and then
teach those skills to others, our country and our
system will struggle.

Five years ago: The entire
top echelon of Newt Gingrich’s
presidential campaign resigned
in a mass exodus that left his
bid for the Republican nomination in tatters; the former
House speaker vowed deﬁantly
to remain a candidate. Alabama
passed a tough law against
illegal immigration, requiring

schools to ﬁnd out if students
were in the country lawfully
and making it a crime to knowingly give an illegal immigrant
a ride. (Federal courts have
since blocked parts of the law.)

pleaded not guilty in Chicago
to charges that he had violated
banking rules and lied to the
FBI about promising to pay
$3.5 million in hush money to
conceal misconduct from his

(Hastert later pleaded guilty
to violating banking law in a
case that revealed accusations
of sexual abuse, and was sentenced to 15 months in prison.)

Post 39
splits with
Parkersburg
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@civitasmedia.com

PARKERSBURG, W. Va. — The
Pomeroy Post 39 American Legion
baseball team opened its season on
Sunday, and split a non-league doubleheader at Parkersburg Post 15.
On the strength of a complete-game
shutout by right-handed pitcher Cameron Mattox, the Post 39 unit captured
a 9-0 win in the opener.
In the nightcap, Parkersburg scored
seven of its 10 runs in its ﬁnal two atbats, as Post 15 gained a 10-4 triumph
for the split at Bennett Stump Field in
Parkersburg.
In the ﬁrst game, Post 39 scored
twice in innings one, two and seven —
sandwiched around single points in the
third, fourth and ﬁfth frames.
Mattox — the former Meigs High
School standout — made the most of
his summer debut, going the distance
in blanking Post 15.
In fact, the only Post 15 baserunner
through the opening six innings was
Nicholas Wright, who walked with one
out in the second.
Mattox didn’t allow a hit until the
seventh stanza — and with Post 39 in
command 9-0.
Joe Riley singled to lead off, then
Wright singled with two outs.
Otherwise, Mattox was simply masterful, retiring Post 15 1-2-3 in the ﬁrst,
third, fourth, ﬁfth and sixth innings.
He faced four batters in the second
and ﬁnally ﬁve in the seventh, and
struck out ﬁve along the way, including
a pair in the sixth.
Post 39 hammered out 11 hits
against Parkersburg pitching, including
four singles by Christian Speelman.
Speelman also batted in three runs.
Kaileb Sheets added a single and
double and scored three runs, as Trey
Pickens posted a pair of singles.
Billy Harmon in the ﬁrst, Dylan
Smith in the second and Jensen Anderson in the sixth accounted for the
other three hits.
Pickens and Speelman scored twice,
as Mattox scored in the second before
Blake Johnson crossed in the third to
make it 5-0.
Post 39 also took advantage of early
walks, as Post 15 starter Jordan Batten
walked seven in the opening two and
one-thirds innings.
Speelman, in the opening inning,
singled and then stole second and third
— and eventually scored the only run
Post 39 needed for the win.
In the second game, Pomeroy plated
single runs in the ﬁrst, third, ﬁfth and
sixth innings in the loss.
The St. Marys outﬁeld duo of Ty
Flowers and Michael Fox forged a combined ﬁve hits, ﬁve runs and four RBIs
as Post 15 won 10-4.
Post 39 led 1-0 — and tied the contest twice at 2-2 in the third and ﬁnally
3-3 in the ﬁfth.
Sheets pitched the ﬁrst four innings
for Post 39, but was chased following
three consecutive hits and two runs in
the bottom half.
He scored the third and ﬁfth-inning
runs for Post 39, as Speelman scored
the opening point and Greg Priddy the
ﬁnal marker in the sixth.
Sheets singled and doubled again in
game two, while Harmon had a pair of
singles.
Post 15’s Zach Van Camp pitched a
complete game for the winners with
four walks.
The twinbill also marked the season
opener for Post 15.
Post 39 returns to the road, and
returns to action tonight (Thursday,
June 9), at Athens Post 21.
First pitch is set for 6 p.m. at Ed
Rannow Field in The Plains.

Wahama coaches look back at title run
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@civitasmedia.com

MASON, W.Va. — Just
like last year, the Wahama
baseball coaching staff is
heading into summer with
all smiles.
Every season has it’s ups
and downs, but for the last
two springs the Wahama
baseball team has ﬁnished
at the top of the state. The
White Falcons claimed a 5-4
victory over Wheeling Central in Saturday’s WVSSAC
Class A state championship
game, earning the school’s
fourth baseball title and
their second straight.
“I am truly blessed to
have been able to experience this as many times as
I have,” 12th-year Wahama
head coach Tom Cullen said.
“Without (coach Ron Bradley and coach Phil Hoffman)
I probably don’t and that’s
the way I look at it.”
After ending a 16-year
regional title and state
title drought last year, the
bullseye was squarely on the
backs of the Red and White
this spring, something the
2015 White Falcons didn’t
have to deal with.
“This year, there was more
pressure to do it again,”
Cullen said. “When we won
the Gilmer County game,
it was more of a relief than
excitement. Last year it all
just kind of came together,
we kept getting better from
the beginning right on
through and after a while we
thought, ‘we have a shot at
this’.”
After a 25-7 2015 in which
Wahama rolled to the state
title with a 7-0 victory over
Man, there were no more
doubters, and the White Falcons were underdogs to no
one in 2016.
“Last year, I know I for
one was frustrated that
we were winning a lot of
games and it seemed like we
couldn’t get any recognition
throughout the state,” coach
Bradley said. “We couldn’t
even get in the top-10 and I
think the kids kind of took
a little offense to that. This
year we started out no. 1 in
the polls and we were no. 1
through most of the season.”
The pressure to make it to
state in back-to-back seasons
didn’t rest solely on the players for Wahama, as coach
Hoffman explained.
“From a coaching aspect
we all have different roles,”
Hoffman said. “We all work

well together, but it was a
grind. There was a lot of
pressure, not just on the
kids, but from a coaching
perspective. We had a lot of
pressure to prepare these
kids. We were absolutely
tough on them, sometimes
we pushed them beyond
their limits and sometimes
they faltered. But, if they
could deal with coach Bradley and I, with coach Cullen
mediating along the way,
they were going to be alright
come tournament time.”
Coach Cullen also credits
his assistant coaches as
main factors in the ability
for WHS to repeat.
“I seen it happen to the
‘97 team and the ‘99 team,
they let the pressure get
to them when they were
trying to get back to the
state,” Cullen said. “Thanks
to coach Bradley and coach
Hoffman pushing this group,
they pushed right through
it.”
One of Wahama’s biggest
advantages in getting back
to the ﬁnal four were the the
fact that the pitching duo
of senior Mason Hicks and
junior Philip Hoffman were
both back from last year.
“I can’t believe that there’s
another Class A high school
that has two pitchers as
good as Philip and Mason,”
Cullen said. “If you put their
stats together you’ll not ﬁnd
anyone who’s stats are better
in Class A, not even close. I
don’t thing there’s anyone in
Class AAA that has stats to
match Philip’s.”
For the second straight
year, Hoffman pitched the
regional semiﬁnal and state
semiﬁnal for WHS, while
Hicks pitched both the
regional and state ﬁnals.
The duo combined for a 17-7
record on the mound this
spring with 263 strikeouts.
Hoffman was the captain
on the Class A all-state ﬁrst
team, while Hicks was a second team all-state player.
Other returnees from
last spring include starters Nyles Riggs, Jared
Oliver, Ricky Kearns, Dalton Kearns, Jared Nutter,
Colton Arrington and Ryan
Thomas.
Wahama’s only stater that
didn’t win a ring in 2015
was senior Tyler Grimm,
who stepped in as catcher
and cleanup batter for the
2016 White Falcons.
“We made a commitment
down the stretch that we
were going to put the best

Saturday at Appalachian Power Park.

defensive team on the ﬁeld,”
Bradley said. “When Tyler
Grimm could go in and catch
for us, it allowed us to be
strong at shortstop and get
guys where we thought they
should be.”
Wahama ﬁnished 2016
with a team ﬁelding percentage of .934, with 54 errors in
33 games.
“Last year we were winning, even making errors,”
Cullen said. “We knew we
couldn’t keep up with that,
we made some switches and
the defense really showed in
that last game.”
The Red and White did
not commit an error in
either the state semiﬁnal or
ﬁnal.
“I truly believe, with what
we taught them, that defensive and pitching wins championship games,” Hoffman
said. “I think our defense
and pitching is what got us
another state title.”
Another advantage
Wahama had was playing in
the Tri-Valley Conference
Hocking Division. The nineteam league fared very well
in the postseason this spring
as, along with Wahama,
Trimble, Eastern, Waterford
and Belpre each made the
district ﬁnal, with the Eagles
and Wildcats advancing to
the regional round. Cullen noted that playing in a
league with that many quality teams ultimately helped
the White Falcons.
“It especially helped this
year because the pitching we
saw over there,” said Cul-

len. “Those were some darn
good pitchers we faced.”
Wahama earned its third
straight TVC Hocking title
this spring and their fourth
in the six seasons since joining the league. The White
Falcons are 66-20 all-time in
the nine-team league.
Ever-focused on the
tournament, Wahama lost
its ﬁnal ﬁve regular season
games of the season, including two tune-up games
that weren’t on the original
schedule.
“Those were just tune-ups,
we didn’t really care about
them, we just wanted to
get Philip and Mason some
innings,” Cullen said. “It’s
just like a practice game to
me, they might feel different, but it’s just a chance
to get some swings against
some good pitchers. Point
Pleasant had some good
pitching and you’re not
going to get much better
pitching than what Nitro
had. We saw better pitching
in both of those games than
what we saw at the state
tournament.”
Cullen noted a previous
experience as why he feels
tune-up games are just there
for practice.
“I have to admit, one year
against Roane County, William Zuspan convinced me
to leave him in,” Cullen said.
“He ﬁnished it and we got
the win, but he didn’t have
anything against Charleston
Catholic when we played

Wahama’s Rachel Roque named all-state
By Alex Hawley

VIENNA, W.Va. —
The West Virginia
Sports Writers Association has released the
2016 Class A all-state
softball teams, featuring one Mason County
athlete.
For the second
straight season, Wahama
center ﬁelder Rachel
Roque was the lone
Mason County representative on the Class A allstate list, being selected
as an honorable mention. Roque — a senior
who is committed to
play for Ohio UniversityChillicothe next season
— was a ﬁrst team allstate center ﬁelder as a
junior.
Roque was the leadoff batter for the Lady
Falcons this spring
and helped the Red and
White to a 18-11 record
and their ﬁrst-ever
regional ﬁnal appearance.

sophomore pitcher Riley
Bennington was the

them the next week. I’ll
never let that happen
again.”
After a loss to start
Wahama’s 2016, the
White Falcons won 10
straight games. A 19-11
loss to Mooreﬁeld ended
the Bend Area team’s
winning streak, but the
Red and White won the
next three decisions.
Wahama’s season hit a
low point following a 7-1
victory over Southern,
as the White Falcons lost
their next four games.
WHS got back on track
with a double-header
sweep of Belpre, but lost
back-to-back home games
headed into the Region
4, Section 3 tournament.
Wahama won all three
sectional games, but lost
a rescheduled regular season game at Trimble and
a tune-up game at Point
Pleasant.
The White Falcons
shutout both regional
opponents, and then fell
to Nitro — the eventual
Class AAA runner-up
— in a tune-up for both
teams. Despite all the ups
and downs of the season,
the conﬁdence of the Red
and White never wavered.
“I don’t think they ever
thought they couldn’t
repeat, especially the
seniors,” Cullen said.
“The seniors wanted the
legacy of being the ﬁrst
team to ever repeat and
they wanted it bad. Philip
is the most positive thinking kid that I’ve been
around, he believed we
were going to win it all
along.”
Part of the reason that
the White Falcons were

so conﬁdent is that they
always had each other’s
back.
“They’re an awful lot
like a family,” Cullen said.
“Family has some arguments sometimes, but
family always works it
out. Family is your blood
and you play for each
other. That’s how it’s been
all year long, we’re like a
second family.”
For everything to work,
the White Falcon coaching staff had to have the
whole team on the same
page.
“The kids have bought
in to the fact that they
need to be unselﬁsh,”
Bradley said. “If you go to
the plate in a bunt situation, we need you to lay
down a bunt. Bunting
won the Man game. We
work on bunt defense,
but a lot of these teams
don’t. Regardless of what
sport it is, you can’t
expect a kid to go out on
the court or ﬁeld, and do
something that you havn’t
practiced.”

were set to start the state
ﬁnal, when the tarp was
pulled over the ﬁeld and a
three-hour and 15-minute
rain delay began. After
scoring the game’s ﬁrst
run, WHS surrendered
four straight runs to
Wheeling Central. Just
before the second rain
delay — a break of close
to two hours — Wahama
scored two runs and cut
the deﬁcit to 4-3.
“I told them I was the
ghost of baseball past,”
Hoffman said. “I told
them that you have to
look at what the losing
side will look like, you
have to anguish for threeor-four hours about what
it might be like to be a
loser. I said ‘now, you

have a chance to change
it, you’re down 4-3, you
can hold them, it’s on
you’. They’re champions
and now with what they
were able to accomplish,
they’ll be able to buy into
our system more next
year.”
Going into the long
break with a one-run
deﬁcit may have been an
advantage for the White
Falcons, who quickly
gained the lead out of the
break.
“Maybe sitting there
and them thinking about
how we were behind
might have helped,”
Cullen said. “We played
better after we came out.
Sitting there down 4-1
would have been a lot
tougher, and it was a big
hit that got those two
runs in. They showed
a lot of character and a
lot of kids grew up right
there. I think Wheeling
Central was sure that we
were going to change
pitchers after the second
rain delay, but I told
Mason ‘you’re it, we’ve
got nothing else’.”
Hicks excelled on the
mound after the break,
striking out three batters,
while not even allowing
a base runner of the ﬁnal
2.2 frames.
“There was a difference
in Mason’s demeanor
when we came out of the
second rain delay,” Bradley said. “It was different
than it had been all day.
I came out of the dugout
just before the seventh
inning and I told him to
ﬁnish it. I felt at ease at
that point, as much as I
could.”
For coach Hoffman,
sharing the state title
with his son, junior ace
Philip Hoffman, makes it
that much more reward-

“I’ve not only been a
part of two state championship teams, but I have a
son that I’ve been able to
experience that with too,”
Hoffman said. “I just can’t
explain how special that
makes it.”
Along with Philip Hoffman, starters Colton
Arrington, Nyles Riggs,
Jared Oliver and Dalton
Kearns will be back in
the Red and White next
season. The White Falcons will have to replace
graduating seniors Mason
Hicks, Jared Nutter, Ian
Hook, Tyler Grimm,
Ricky Kearns and Ryan
Thomas.
“We’re not going to
change our methods,
we’re just going to have
different personnel,”
Bradley said. “We’ve got
some holes to ﬁll offensively and defensively.
Hopefully some of these
younger classmen can
step up and feel these
holes for us.”
For the White Falcons
to return to Appalachian
Power Park for a thirdstraight state title run,
the Red and White will
have a much different
path. Wahama’s section — which has been a
three-team double elimination tournament featuring Hannan and Calhoun
County — will be a
six-team sectional featuring Ravenswood, Williamstown, Parkersburg
Catholic, Wirt County
and Calhoun County. The
other side of the region
will feature Hannan, Tug
Valley, Huntington St.
Joe, Buffalo, Sherman,
Tolsia and Van.

Overcoming Your Credit Card Crisis
The battle with credit card debt can
be a constant struggle against high
interest rates and monthly payments
that never seem to make a dent in
what you owe. How is it possible to
make monthly credit card payments
and never get anywhere?
This problem is caused by high
interest rates that eats up most of
your payments. Even though you
make your minimum payment,
you don’t make much headway
eliminating the debt.
Luckily, there’s a way to find debt
relief without incurring more
debts. Using certified credit
counseling like Consolidated
Credit, you can get professional

advice to identify the right solution for your needs.
A certified credit counselor
can review your options to
see which solution is best for
you. You can qualify for lower
interest rates or even eliminate
them, while consolidating your
credit card debt into one easy
payment to get you out of debt
faster. Every financial institution differs, but most people see
a reduction of total payments
by up to 30-50% as they pay off
debt faster.

Freedom from debt can
become a reality!

Historic site
opens at Reds’
former home
CINCINNATI (AP)
— The Crosley Field
Historic Site opened
Wednesday on property where the Cincinnati Reds played for
decades, with a colorful mural and replicas
meant to jog memories
and imaginations.
A replica light tower
on the property, just
west of Interstate 75,
also reminds visitors
that Major League
Baseball’s first night
game was played there
in 1935. The Cincinnati Reds beat the Philadelphia Phillies 2-1.
Team historian Greg
Rhodes has taken
people on informal
tours of the property for years. But the
addition of the large
mural depicting 1950s
Crosley, replica foul
poles, seats and base
markers, and historical
photos provide more
to see.
“You really have to
use your imagination,”
Rhodes conceded as
he led dozens of fans
on a tour Wednesday.
“But this will help
bring it to life.”
The usual free tour
will be self-guided,
with brochures available at the City Gospel
Mission, located on
part of the property
that was once Crosley
Field before it was
demolished and paved
over for business uses.
The Reds played in
Crosley 1912-1970, an
era that includes four

Reds’ World Series
appearances and star
players such as Frank
Robinson, Pete Rose
and Johnny Bench.
Rhodes said many of
baseball’s other greatest players, from Babe
Rush to Hank Aaron,
also played at Crosley. He noted that the
mural’s scoreboard
shows the Reds beating the rival Dodgers
16-4, an actual game
score in the ’50s.
The Cincinnati Reds
Hall of Fame and
Museum is funding
most of the costs and
is selling personalized
bricks for the site.
Rhodes said that
for older fans, the site
evokes talk about “the
experience of coming
here” — the smells of
ballpark icon “Peanut
Jim” Shelton’s hot
roasted peanuts or the
sounds of broadcaster
Waite Hoyt, calling
the action over transistor radios people took
to games.
For George Brinkman, 73, Wednesday’s
visit was poignant.
He thought of how his
father, a bartender,
bought “obstructed
view” tickets because
that was what he could
afford.
“I never liked sitting
behind a pole,” Brinkman said. “Now I just
remember it was all
part of the cool times
of being with my
Dad.”

LONG POND, Pa. (AP) —
Kurt Busch felt like a game show
contestant who had to beat the
clock to win a prize.
Told his Chevrolet was two
laps shy of having enough fuel
for the finishing push, Busch did
all he could to save, scrimp and
stretch over the final five laps to
give himself a shot at the win.
He coasted, he kept his foot off
the gas and he even turned off
his engine when he headed into
the turns at Pocono Raceway.
“I kept finding ways to think I
was saving fuel,” he said. “The
way the fuel mileage played
out, I didn’t know if we’d have
enough.”
With an interim crew chief
calling the shots, Busch found
enough ways to make his gas
last and won the Sprint Cup
race Monday, his first victory of
the season and a welcome dose
of good news for Stewart-Haas
Racing.
The 2004 champion, urged by
his team to step on it hard for
the final lap, somehow made it
work on a track with the longest
frontstretch in motorsports.
There was no pain at the pump:
Busch not only had enough fuel
left to win, but enough for victory burnouts and a celebratory
lap around the track.
“I was like, whoa, how many
laps shy are we? They said two,”
he said. “These are really long
straightaways at Pocono and you
have to manage saving fuel as
well as maintaining lap time. So
many thoughts can go through
your head, but I just stuck with
the checklist.”
Dale Earnhardt Jr. was second, and Brad Keselowski,
Chase Elliott, and Joey Logano
rounded out the top five in a
race postponed one day because
of rain.
Busch won with interim crew
chief Johnny Klausmeier, the
lead engineer, calling the shots
as Tony Gibson served a onerace suspension.
“Y’all got this… ????” Gibson
tweeted before the race.

They sure did — a victory that
Busch was building toward all
season.
He had quietly been having a
solid season for SHR, posting
four top-five finishes and 11 top
10s in 13 starts entering the
race. He had reeled off seven
straight top 10s — he graded
his season an A-minus — but
didn’t have the win he needed to
earn a spot in the Chase for the
Sprint Cup championship.
Busch led 32 laps in winning
his 28th career Cup race, moving him into a tie with Hall of
Famer Rex White for 25th on
NASCAR’s career wins list. He
also has three wins at Pocono
with three different teams. He
became the ninth driver to win a
race this season.
Without a caution to help conserve fuel, Busch nursed what
was left in the tank for the last
30-plus laps of green flag racing
to snap a 34-race skid.
Busch and Klausmeier posed
arm in arm for a picture in victory lane and left just enough
space between them to insert a
picture of Gibson.
“We just kept him informed on
everything that was going on,
and he took it and ran with it,”
Klausmeier said.
Elliott led 51 laps and seemed
poised for most of the race to
earn his first career win. But the
Hendrick Motorsports rookie
who replaced Jeff Gordon in the
No. 24 Chevy stumbled off late
restarts.
“I wish I had been a little more
patient and given ourselves a
better chance,” Elliott said.
It was the first Monday race
at Pocono since 2009 and the
first postponed Cup race of the
season.
Other notes:

son, finished 34th and remained
a long shot at clinching a spot in
the top 30 in the points race to
qualify for the Chase. Patrick’s
crew made repairs on pit road
and she finished 32nd.
PIT STOP MESS
Keselowski, the pole sitter, ran
into early trouble when he was
called back to the pits because
of unapproved body modifications on his No. 2 Ford. One
of his crew members threw a
shoulder block into a side panel,
which caused a dent that could
have given Keselowski an advantage. Crew members argued
with pit officials, to no avail.
NASCAR officials quickly surrounded Keselowski’s car after
the race.
“It was two NASCAR penalties and I’m not sure I really
know what happened there,” he
said. “The team guys can probably give you a better answer, but
we fought back really well. At
the end I think we were capable
of winning the race with a really
fast car, even with the right side
door torn up.”
REMEMBERING THE GREATEST
A moment of silence was held
for boxing great Muhammad Ali,
who died Friday night at an Arizona hospital. “He could talk the
game and back it up,” retired
champion Jeff Gordon said on
the TV broadcast.
INDY FLAVOR
IndyCar star Marco Andretti,
a nearby Nazareth, Pennsylvania native, visited the track and
sat in Tony Stewart’s pit box.
Sage Karam, a fellow IndyCar
driver and Nazareth native, visited the track this weekend and
expressed interest in trying the
Truck Series race in August.
