It was a gentle upbringing with some strength in there when it came to motivating you occasionally, but it was a good upbringing. I don’t know if there was anything special about it other than it was a good upbringing.” That same family modesty is what caused Steve’s parents, Bob and Jewel, to be genuine folks who would treat you the same as they did when they would meet someone like Presi- dent Ronald Reagan. Steve said his father had a penchant for inviting guests, as well as sausage order customers, over at all hours of the day and that would eventually spur a small cafe operation on the farm which welcomed visitors. Jewel, as an expert cook, could whip up a meal on the fly and that tradition carried on into what it is today. The family would also become famous for creating its own sausage as, at the time, See EVANS | 8A Meigs students hear from local firefighters GALLIPOLIS —A Mason County, W.Va., man was sentenced to six months in prison last week for theft from a senior citizen at a Gallia County retail store.

Sunday Times-Sentinel Portman rescinds Trump endorsement YOUNGSTOWN (AP) — GOP U.S. Senator Rob Portman on Friday called a video showing fellow Republican Donald Trump boasting about groping women “the final straw” in his decision to rescind his endorsement of the presidential candidate. “I found his comments, the most recent ones, to be offensive. I found them to be demeaning, degrading to women. For me, it was the final straw,” Portman said during his first U.S. Senate race debate with Democratic challenger Ted Strickland. Portman responded to a question asking why he didn’t withdraw support earlier given previous Trump statements offensive to women and minorities. “I’m proud of Portman our party and he won our nomination fairly and squarely, and I think his policies are better on rebuilding the military and growing the economy. But for me, I could no longer support him,” Portman said. Strickland, a former Ohio governor, said Portman is guilty of “cowardice” for not acting sooner. “He should have rejected this man while he was saying these outrageous things, and he didn’t because he was thinking about his own political career,” Strickland Strickland said. Portman in turn criticized Strickland for staying silent when Hillary Clinton called half of Trump’s supporters a “basket of deplorables.” He also criticized Strickland for remarks in August to a labor group that appeared to celebrate the death of late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. Most of the debate was a rerun of familiar jabs over job growth. NEWS FROM AROUND THE BUCKEYE STATE Sentencing for mother of boy who tried to sell toy for food LEBANON, Ohio (AP) — The Ohio mother of a 7-year-old boy who police say was found trying to sell a stuffed animal to buy food has been sentenced to six months in jail. Tammi Bethel and her husband Michael Bethel both pleaded guilty last month to child endangering charges. Tammi Bethel was sentenced Friday in Franklin Municipal Court in southwestern Ohio. Defense attorney David Chicarelli said she was taken to the hospital afterward after falling ill, possibly from the flu and anxiety. Chicarelli said Bethel is looking forward to reuniting with her children after serving her time. The Hamilton-Middletown Journal News reports Michael Bethel was not sentenced Friday because he was also in the hospital. A message was left with his attorney. The boy told an officer in September he hadn’t eaten for days. Fan’s attorney declined to comment Friday. Yu’s attorney says Yu has apologized and made restitution. A Goodyear statement Friday said the company is pleased with the sentences. Police: 3 teens steal car, crash, leaving 10-year-old hurt CINCINNATI (AP) — Three teens are facing charges after police say they stole a car, fled police and collided with another car in southwest Ohio, leaving a 10-year-old boy who was on the sidewalk hurt. The Cincinnati Enquirer reported Thursday police say the youths stole the car on Sunday in Cincinnati after its owner left it running outside a dairy shop. Police began chasing the car across the city. The car eventually crashed and came to a stop on a sidewalk near a park. Police say officers captured the youths after they tried to flee. A 15-year-old boy who police say was the driver faces charges including receiving stolen property and failing to comply with police. Police say two boys, ages 16 and 14, who were passengers face charges of obstructing police.

Maybe it’s a mom, sister, co-worker or neighbor. Breast cancer hits home, and its impact lasts a lifetime. Susan G. Komen has been fighting to end breast cancer since 1982. Earlier this month, Komen launched a new phase in their battle. It’s called “The Bold Goal.” They want to reduce the current number of breast cancer deaths by 50 percent in the U.S. within the next decade by improving access to quality and timely cancer care for the underserved and enhancing Komen’s research focus on lethal breast cancers. Is it ambitious? Incredibly. Is it attainable? Yes. Can you help at this A breast cancer-free very moment? Absoworld is a step-bylutely. A breast cancer-free step journey. On Oct. 23, you can step with world is a step-bystep journey. On Oct. them at the Komen 23, you can step with Athens Race for the them at the Komen Cure. Dollars raised Athens Race for the Cure. Dollars raised help fund programs that empower women help fund programs that empower women and families to screen and families to screen for, diagnose and for, diagnose and defeat breast cancer. defeat breast cancer. Since 2000, that has Since 2000, that has totaled nearly $6 miltotaled nearly $6 lion supporting 18 million supporting 18 southeastern Ohio southeastern Ohio counties. The need to step counties. up this fight is real. A Centers for Disease Control report found women in Ohio with breast cancer are more likely to die from the disease than almost any other state. Komen Columbus serves 30 counties in all and this region (Athens,Galia, Meigs, Lawrence, Scioto, Pike, Ross, Jackson, Vinton, Hocking, Fairfield, Perry, Muskingum, Guernsey, Noble, Monroe, Washington and Morgan) has one-third of the breast cancer diagnoses and deaths. That is a disproportionate number that needs to change. Projected this year, there will be 365 women diagnosed with breast cancer; 171 late-stage diagnoses and 71 families will lose a woman they love to this terrible disease. Health care providers and families offer tremendous support for those fighting breast cancer. They need additional help. Komen Columbus’ community profile looked at local needs and connected existing resources and patient navigators to help address those concerns. What is the impact locally? Komen has helped fund the following programs that help families where you live:The Healthy Adult Project Breast Education and Screening Program provides clinical breast exams; referrals and vouchers for screening mammograms and diagnostics; transportation vouchers; patient navigation; and breast health education. Eligible participants are uninsured or underinsured women at or below 300 percent of the poverty level residing in Gallia, Meigs and 13 other southeast Ohio counties. The Meigs County Cancer Initiative‘s Think Pink Program funds early detection services including screening and diagnostic mammograms for medically underserved and financially eligible women in Meigs County. The best part, screening can begin for women 35 and older. The program also offers quarterly women’s health days, breast health education, access to mobile mammography, clinical breast exams, gasoline vouchers and networking to access needed follow-ups. Project Hoffnung (or “Hope”) was established in 1997 to address health disparities within Amish communities by understanding knowledge, attitudes, beliefs and behaviors surrounding cancer issues. A culturally competent breast health program was developed through a series of focus groups, interviews, and a communityled advisory team. Komen Columbus-funded programs in southeast Ohio provided more than 11,839 individual services to help women overcome barriers contributing to breast cancer mortality and led to 159 diagnosed cases of breast cancer. “The Bold Goal” seeks to improve those numbers even more while enhancing national research for the most lethal breast cancers. Being bold pays dividends. Being bold saves lives. Being bold means taking the next step in this journey Oct. 23 in Athens. Race for a cure to end breast cancer. THEIR VIEW Trump, audio tape and American hypocrisy About 10 years ago, Donald Trump was recorded saying some vulgar and appalling words. Most Americans by this time have heard what he said as many of the network and cable news channels have played the audio recording numerous times. If you haven’t heard Trump’s shocking audio that is degrading to women, then just turn on your television. You will hear it multiple times between now and the Nov. 8 election. I was shocked and disappointed over Trump’s comments. Obviously, this was a low and gutter moment in his life that he probably had long forgotten about. Now it’s etched in history and probably eternity via the audio release. How many people in America have had low and bad moments? What if just one of your worst moments was recorded and replayed thousands or millions of times? You probably will never run for president. However, the truth is that every person has had thoughts that they would never want replayed wants to present. thousands of times The person taped for millions of is often left dampeople they don’t aged or destroyed. know. Most people Trump shouldn’t have said a few have said what he things sometime in did and it’s good their lifetime they that he has apolowould not want Glenn gized now several replayed for the Mollette Contributing times. However, world. And, a lot some of those who of folks have done columnist hate Trump want things they would him to do a Jimmy not replay. For any of us to say differently is Swaggert. Swaggert, when he just being hypocritical. We are all guilty of sin. confessed his immorality A lot of righteous people to his church and national television, wailed, cried like to quote religious profusely and mourned verses and so here is one: “All have sinned and and moaned and carried on like nothing we come short …” Romans had ever seen before. Is 3:23. This means we this what people want have all failed, messed up, screwed up, wrecked, from Trump? Tears and screaming, “forgive me” said stupid stuff and means nothing if it’s only have done some stupid words. Real change takes things along the way. place in the heart and Fortunately, most of the stuff we think about, say Trump has apologized. or even act upon usually Future events will tell if he really means what he isn’t recorded for the world. Sometimes, as in is saying. Let me go back to Trump’s case, the dirty words or act was record- some religious jargon here. There was an incied and now is in mass dent in the Bible where a public distribution. woman was caught in the One point I want to actual act of adultery. We make with audio and can only imagine how video recordings is they embarrassing that must seldom tell the whole story. They often present have been. Even more, the incident occurred in what the owner or the the Middle East, where editor of the recording people would just automatically stone a woman for such an act. The religious accusers wanted Jesus’ spin on the event and so they asked him to state his opinion on the situation. Jesus said to them, “Let he that is without sin cast the first stone.” The accusers dropped their stones and walked away. What Donald Trump said was bad, bad and bad. However, look at all the things we’ve all said and done. We are all sinners, failures and have done or said bad things along the way. Hillary Clinton has done her share of bad deeds and we could go on to list former presidents, ministers, schoolteachers, relatives and so on. Remember, before we make any list of people who have made mistakes, we should always list our own names first. Trump has been apologizing and facing one of his bad moments now posted for the world to hear. Hopefully, that’s something you will never have to face.

Under Ohio law, theft of this matter would normally be a misdemeanor. However, the age of the victim and because the purse contained personal checks allowed the case to rise to a felony. “I applaud the good Samaritan who stepped up and assisted the victim and I am also thankful that no one was hurt during the incident,” said Gallia County Prosecutor Jeff Adkins. “I am also pleased to report that due to the assistance of the good Samaritan that the purse and all of its contents were returned to the victim. We came to the agreement of a six-month prison term after thorough discussions with the victim. During negotiations of these cases, it is important to have the victim involved in possible resolutions. It was clear that the motive for the theft was drug-fueled and we have to send a clear message to those who seek to take from hardworking people in our community. This is a very young defendant who needs to turn his life around quickly.” attempted to escape, pointing a handgun at law enforcement.

Donohue entered a Robbery Middleport firefighters talked with students about the equipment on the department’s ladder truck and how the equipment is used. Students coming into the house know where the person is located. The firefighters instructed students that should they hear the firefighter coming they should make noise or call out to get the individual’s attention so that they can locate them. One firefighter donned the breathing apparatus so that the students could hear what it would sound like when worn inside a burning structure. Firefighters also instructed students to not go back in the house for any items they may have left behind. Those items can be replaced, but people cannot. Fire safety tips from the American Red Cross include:Install smoke alarms on every level of your home, inside bedrooms and outside sleeping areas. Test smoke alarms every month. If they’re not working, change the batteries. Talk with all family members about a fire escape plan and practice the plan twice a year. If a fire occurs in your home, get out, stay out and call for help.

Nineteen minutes into Friday night’s TVC Hocking showdown in Washington County, the Waterford and Southern football teams were tied at seven. However, the host Wildcats scored 30 unanswered points and captured the 37-7 win to remain perfect within the nine-team league. After forcing Southern (6-2, 4-2 TVC Hocking) into a three-and-out on the game’s opening possession, Waterford (7-1, 6-0) — which can clinch a share of its first league title since 2007 with a victory over winless Federal Hocking next Friday — began its first drive at the SHS 17. The Wildcats scored on their first drive, as Tyler McCutcheon found paydirt on a six-yard run. Cody Harris made the point-after kick and WHS led 7-0 with 9:42 left in the first period. The Tornado offense was held scoreless in the opening stanza, but had begun driving by the end of the quarter. At the 10:21 mark of the second quarter, Colten Holbrook punched into the endzone on a three-yard run. Andrew Evans kicked home the extra-point, capping off the 10-play, 47 yard drive and tying the game at seven.

Johnny Sheets converted the successful two-point run, allowing the Rebels to secure a 28-20 advantage. The White Falcons were forced to punt on their ensuing possession, then forced a turnover on downs on South Gallia’s next drive — giving the hosts the ball at their own 18-yard line with 50 seconds left in regulation. After a nine-yard gain on first down and an incomplete pass on second down, the Red and White ran into a disastrous situation as a bad snap sailed over Grate’s head and deep into the backfield area. Grate recovered the fumble, but Isaac Luther recorded his second sack of the night — which resulted in a 20-yard loss with less than 20 seconds left in the game. Grate completed a 19-yard pass to Johnnie Board on a fourth-and-21 play, with Board being brought down as time expired. The Rebels outgained WHS by a sizable 445200 overall margin in total yards of offense, with all of the guests’ output coming from the ground game on 57 attempts. The White Falcons, conversely, mustered only 80 rushing yards on 31 carries. Following the game, seventh-year SGHS coach Jason Peck was really pleased with the effort from his guys in the trenches. He was also quick to point out that his senior tailback is pretty good too. “Offensively, I cannot say enough about our guys up front. They really did a good job at the point of attack tonight,” Peck said. “Then there was Johnny Sheets and his effort tonight, and he was simply out of this world again.

Ironmen hammer Marauders, 63-7 By Dave Harris For Ohio Valley Publishing JACKSON, Ohio — Jackson scored early and often while rolling to a 63-7 victory over an injury-depleted Meigs Marauders team Friday night at Alumni Stadium in Jackson County. The Ironmen rolled up 577 total yards against the Marauders, with 473 coming on the ground while taking a 49-0 advantage into the locker room at the half. It didn’t take long for the host to jump out to a lead as on the first play from scrimmage, senior quarterback Bryce Hall went over the middle to Dyllan Coffey for 48 yards and the score. Caden Southland kicked the first of his nine extra points and just 13 seconds into the contest, Jackson was on top. Johnny Fraley added a run of 13 yards before Hall hit Cooper Donaldson from four yards out. Farley then added a one yard run and Jackson held a 28-0 lead after one. In the second period, it was more of the same. Farley scored on a 50 yard run and a 21 pass from Hall. Sandwiched around a Blake McCoy 49 yard scamper to increase the lead to 49-0 at the half. Brice Graham scored from six yards out in third period, before Lane Cullums put the Marauders on the score board with a 12 yard run early in the fourth period.

With Eastern’s defense on the field entirely too much, and with its offense unable to generate much of anything, the Eagles endured a frustrating Friday night — being blanked by Trimble 34-0 in a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division football tilt at East Shade River Stadium. Although, it’s just the latest loss to Trimble for the Eagles, as Trimble — in improving to 6-2 and 6-1 in the TVC-Hocking — turned its win streak to now 17 games against Eastern. Moreover, 16 of those are consecutive in the regular season. The loss also dealt Eastern’s Division VII, Region 27 playoff hopes a major hit — as the Eagles really needed a victory to remain in serious postseason contention. They entered Friday’s affair ranked 13th in the region, but fell to 15th following the shutout to the second-ranked in Region 27 Tomcats. Trimble — in a span of eight minutes and 52 seconds — scored all 20 of its secondquarter points, before tacking on seven points apiece in the late stages of the third and fourth frames. The run-oriented Tomcats of 2016 churned out eight yards shy of 400 rushing, amassing 57 carries of their 65 total plays. In fact, senior running back Kameron Curry, who had a hat trick of rushing touchdowns in the second quarter, carried 27 times for a massive 204 yards. Eastern, on the other hand, struggled mightily on offense — which led to its defense being on the field way too much. In the opening half, the Eagles punted three times following three three-and-out possessions — and turned the ball over twice while once turning it over on downs. In the second 24 minutes, Eastern endured another three-and-out, followed by drives of a dozen and five plays that ended in interceptions. The Eagles only amounted 106 yards on 46 plays from scrimmage, and quarterback Jett Facemyer managed only 72 total yards, including only three rushing on 10 attempts. The speedy defensive front of the Tomcats flushed Facemyer from the pocket all night, making him scramble to avoid an onslaught of pres- By Paul Boggs pboggs@civitasmedia.com Paul Boggs | OVP Sports Eastern’s Josh Brewer (9) tries to avoid the tackle of Trimble’s Nathan Downs (11) during Friday night’s Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division football game at East Shade River Stadium. Looking on for Eastern is Ryan Parsons (63). sure. “If you would have told me we were going to shut them out, I wouldn’t think so,” said Trimble coach Phil Faires. “From film, (Jett) Facemyer and a couple of their receivers look really good. But we had to make him (Facemyer) get out of the pocket. Our defensive front did a great job, especially Matthew Rollins putting a lot of pressure on him. We rushed him out of the pocket and I don’t think he is really used to that. Any time you get a shutout especially against an offensive-oriented team like Eastern, it makes you feel good.” With that, and combined with Eastern’s own mistakes, the Eagles fell to an even 4-4 — and 3-3 in the TVCHocking. “It was very frustrating, because we couldn’t get any offensive continuity going,” said Eastern coach Pat Newland. “They (Tomcats) had a fast defensive line, they were to hard to block and they blitzed a lot of linebackers. We had some success on some screens and things, but then any time it seemed like we would get something going, we would have a penalty or something would happen. We had some dropped balls, missed blocks, all kinds of stuff that we have to get better at.” The Tomcats, conversely, got better on Friday night following a scoreless opening quarter. Only 54 seconds into the second period, Curry carried up the middle and off of right tackle, but slipped through the crease in the Eagle front — and eventually found his way into the end zone. The mad dash was good for 80 yards following the Eagle turnover on downs, as the first of four Max Hooper extrapoint kicks made it 7-0. “There was always just one breakdown, whether it was a missed tackle or we got blocked. The Curry kid doesn’t need much room to run, and then when he gets free he is gone. That’s kind of what happened on that play,” said Newland. As it turned out, it was a momentum changer. “We broke the big one when it was 0-0 at the start of the second quarter. That gave us some breathing room to try some other stuff. We opened it up a little bit and the kids have confidence in it,” said Faires. Following Eastern’s second three-and-out, the Tomcats then marched nine plays and 67 yards in five minutes and 17 seconds — and made it 13-0 at the four-minute mark on Curry’s eight-yard run. All nine plays were rushes, and only the second-to-last snap resulted in negative yardage. The Eagles then punted again, but did so this time from inside their own 20-yardline, with Trimble taking over at the Eastern 41. Two plays and 38 seconds later, with 2:14 to play in the second quarter, Curry raced up the middle once again — and found paydirt for the third time to make it 20-0. In the third quarter, another Eastern three-and-out resulted in another Tomcat TD — this one capping a four-play, 23-yard, minute and 25-second scoring drive, in which quar- terback Gary Brooks called his own number from four yards out at the four-and-a-half minute mark. Finally, in the fourth quarter, Trimble marched a massive 13 plays and 68 yards in exactly seven-and-a-half minutes, picking up five first downs as Nathan Downs darted in from a yard out. “I was very happy with the effort we gave and we played hard on defense, but we played defense way too much tonight,” said Newland. Along with Curry’s eyepopping statistics, Dominic Pickett posted 59 yards on 11 carries, as Brooks added 57 yards (six carries) and Downs another 43 (seven carries). Brooks completed 3-of8 passes for 22 yards, as Trimble tallied 21 first downs compared to only seven for Eastern. Blaise Facemyer made four receptions for 44 yards, as Josh Brewer was the leading rusher with 38 yards on a dozen attempts. The Eagles, now needing to win out AND a bevy of help in order to make the playoffs, travel to Belpre next week in the TVC-Hocking. With the loss to the Tomcats, Eastern is now 0-4 this year against teams with a winning record. However, Newland said the difficult schedule has made his Eagles better. “We’ve played a tough schedule, but I feel we’ve gotten better throughout and gotten more physical,” he said. “We’ve got Belpre next week, and they are another fast and physical team to prepare for.” Paul Boggs can be reached at 740-4462342, ext. 2106 Blue Angels cap off unbeaten regular season By Alex Hawley man Alex Barnes was next with 10 points and three aces, Brooke Pasquale added nine points and one ace, while CENTENARY, Ohio — PerHannah McCormick finished fect. with three service points.

That’s because the Blue Devils and Blue Angels, in competing on Thursday as part of the annual Ohio Valley Conference cross country meet, both placed second in the team standings — while senior Mary Watts won her second and final individual girls OVC race. With this season’s meet held at the Fairland cross country course, the Blue Angels and Blue Devils did quite well, but still trailed the repeat champions — Rock Hill for the boys and Fairland for the girls. Gallia Academy’s girls score was a 37, bolstered by capturing three of the top four individual spots. But Fairland — with a 28 — finished second, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth for its five counting times. The Blue Angels were also the runner-up to Fairland last year, which marked their initial appearance in the OVC championship meet. The other three girls team scores were Rock Hill with a 76, Ironton with a 102 and Coal Grove with a 124. The remaining three league schools of Portsmouth, Chesapeake and South Point did not field any girls runners. Watts, with a time of 20 minutes and 43 seconds, repeated as individual girls race champion. There were 45 runners in this year’s girls race, as last season Watts ran a 20:07 to triumph out of 38. Last season’s girls runner-up, Gallia Academy’s Mesa Polcyn, placed third this season in 20 minutes and 56 seconds. Right behind Polcyn was the Blue Angels’ Brooke Johnson (fourth overall), who completed the 5K course in 21:02. Abby Johnson in 12th (23:48) and Cassidy Starnes in 17th (25:00) were Gallia Academy’s other two counting times, while its other two scores were Caitlyn Caldwell (20th in 26:24) and Abby Cremeans (21st in 26:27). Fairland’s Deanna Hall was the race runner-up to Watts, finishing six seconds (20:49) behind her. For the boys, Rock Hill had a team tally of 33, giving the Redmen a second consecutive OVC crown. The Redmen had all five of their counting times place in the top 12, including second and third. Gallia Academy — with its top three runners finishing fourth, fifth and sixth — amounted 47 points. Fairland finished third with 55, followed by Ironton at 119, Coal Grove at 131 and South Point at 156. Despite having all four of its runners place in the top 20, Portsmouth did not post a team score — needing one more runner in order to do so. Chesapeake did not sport any competitors on the boys side either. All seven scoring Blue Devils did place in the top 33, as there were 77 runners in the boys high school race. Kaleb Crisenbery (17:27), Caleb Greenlee (17:31) and Kyle Greenlee (17:33) all crossed the line for GAHS in fourth, fifth and sixth respectively. The other two counting times belonged to Devon Barnes (19th in 18:58) and Ezra Blain (23rd in 19:33), while Kobe Cochran (27th in 19:52) and Ethan Rider (33rd in 20:05) registered the other two scores. Fairland’s Bryce Day was the individual boys race winner in 16 minutes and 37 seconds.

Game 3 proved to be quite a dog fight as there were 12 ties and 13 lead changes, despite Meigs jumping out to a 6-1 advantage. River Valley claimed its largest lead of the night after breaking away from an 18-all tie with four consecutive points, but the guests rallied to knot things up at 24-all before securing the final two points for a straight-game triumph.

Paul Boggs | OVP Sports South Gallia’s Taylor Burnette (16) battles Waterford’s Ana Sophia Beardsley (15) and Allie Kern (23) during Thursday night’s Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division volleyball match at South Gallia High School. Wildcats complete sweep of Lady Rebels By Paul Boggs pboggs@civitasmedia.com MERCERVILLE, Ohio — The night began, and ended, as the Red and Gold’s Pink-Out tilt. In between, though, it was all about the gang in green. In officially locking up a share of the Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division volleyball championship on Thursday night, the visiting Waterford Wildcats completed a sweep of South Gallia by winning 25-14, 25-19 and 25-12. With the win, Waterford — along with Southern — won the TVC-Hocking title, both finishing at 15-1 in the league. In fact, it is the Wildcats’ fourth consecutive conference crown — as they also shared with Southern and Trimble last year. The Green and White — which went 17-5 in the regular season — won its fifth Hocking championship since 18-6 — as a 24-10 margin was its largest of the entire night. The Wildcats amassed 36 kills, including a combined 22 by the 1-2 frontline punch of Megan Ball and Allie Kern. Kern collected 12 and Ball notched 10, as Ball served up three aces and Kern had a block. Of the club’s 31 assists, Jillian McCutcheon set for 20, as she also posted a pair of aces. Burnette led the Lady Rebels with three digs, two aces and five assists, while Olivia Hornsby had a team-high four service points. Colburn collected team-highs in kills and blocks with three apiece, while Griffith had the club’s only other block. The Lady Rebels, the 11th-seeded squad in the Division IV sectional tournament, will travel to sixth-seeded Ironton St. Joseph on Monday for a semifinal bout at 6 p.m. Paul Boggs can be reached at 740446-2342, ext. 2106 Submitted photo Allbright part of MEC championship By Bryan Walters From page 3B DANIELS, W.Va. — Local ties to a program first.

The second game was hotly-contested, with ties at one through seven and 9-all — along with five lead changes. The Rebels led 9-7 before the Wildcats crafted four points in a row, and staked a 16-12 lead — before the Rebels claimed four straight for the match’s next-to-last tie. But once again, Waterford won six straight — part of nine of the final dozen to take the second set 25-19. Once the game was tied at 16-16, the only South Gallia markers were a Christine Griffith kill — and back-to-back kills by Rachal Colburn. The Wildcats never trailed in the third game, as a Taylor Burnette ace earned the Lady Rebels a 2-2 tie.

Thursday night also marked the Lady Rebels’ Volley For the Cure event, in which the squad donned special pink-themed uniforms — in recognition of breast cancer awareness. But on the court, the experienced Wildcats won going away, completing the season sweep of the young Lady Rebels in the process. South Gallia’s only advantage in game one was 1-0, as Waterford broke the final of four ties at 7-7 — scoring six consecutive points and eventually building its cushion to as large as 18-10 following four more points in a row. The lead later ballooned to 20-11 and bwalters@civitasmedia.com at Glade Springs. Allbright — a 2015 graduate of Point Pleasant High School — fired consecutive rounds of 99, 94 and 93 in the threeday event, which led to 24th place finish and a final total of 286. Allbright’s final tally was the lowest of any of the Golden Eagle participants, but UC still managed a 31-stroke victory over runner-up Notre Dame College and the rest of the nine-team field. Charleston’s top performance came from Lauren Crouse, who finished third overall with a 244. Elizabeth Karsten was fifth with a 248, while Alyssa Wrozier was eighth with a 259. UC — which joined the Mountain East Conference in 2013 — also received a 15th place effort of 271 from Ciara Costabile. Natalia Jornet of Concord University was the MEC medalist with a three-day tally of 234. As a senior with the Point Pleasant golf program, Allbright was the medalist in half of her matches and missed qualifying for the state tournament by one stroke.

The drive was capped off by a 10-yard TD pass from Isaac Huffman to Braden Bellville and a two-point conversion run by McCutcheon. The Wildcats held SHS Rebels From page 1B something big to happen, third-seeded squad in the Division II sectional tournament — host Waverly for the sectional championship. The Tigers are the sixth-seeded squad, as the Blue Devils won the sectional title for the first time in school history a year ago. The match with Waverly is set for Thursday (Oct. 20) at 5 p.m. at Gallia Academy’s Lester Field. him a massive 32 for the entire season, was a oneman wrecking crew. In the opening half, he scored with 38, 26 and 10 minutes to play — as Gallia Academy amounted a 3-0 lead before the Panthers popped their only goal with two minutes remaining in the half. In the second stanza, Lester’s markers occurred with 33, 31 and three minutes left — punctuating the 8-1 win and the OVC championship. Gallia Academy’s other two tallies — both in the second 40 minutes — were from Justin Day with 32 to go, and by Miguel Velasco only four minutes later. Day, Pedro Carrascal and Jacob Ratliff registered two assists apiece, while senior goalkeeper Caden Wilt was credited with one. The Blue Devils, despite being even with Chesapeake in corner kicks at four, outshot the Panthers by a hefty 26-8. Lester led in shots with a dozen, as Day delivered five. Wilt wound up with seven saves, as Gallia Academy — on Sept. 1 — defeated the visiting Panthers 6-1. For the OVC season, the Blue and White outscored its opposition by a whopping 3-1 margin (36-13). Gallia Academy will now begin postseason tournament play, as the Blue Devils — the off the board for the final 4:22 of the half and went into the locker room leading 15-7. The SHS defense held Waterford out of the endzone for the first 10 minutes of the second half, but the Wildcats scored twice over the next two minutes. First, Bellville caught a 10-yard scoring pass from Huffman with 1:51 left in the third, then with the third quarter clock expired, McCutch- eon broke a 53-yard touchdown run. Harris made both of his third period extra-point tries and the Wildcats led 29-7 with one quarter remaining. The Purple and Gold turned the ball over on downs on the ensuing drive, giving the hosts possession at the WHS 14. On the first play of Waterford’s drive, Bellville broke an 86-yard touchdown run that — with a two-point run Huffman — capped off the 37-7 Wildcats victory. The Wildcats outgained SHS 413-to-209 in total offense, including 378-to84 on the ground. Both teams were penalized nine times, Southern for 62 yards and Waterford for 100. SHS committed the game’s lone turnover, losing one of its four fumbles. SHS senior quarterback Blake Johnson completed 7-of-16 passes for 125 yards, with Dylan Smith hauling in six passes for 107 and Crenson Rogers catching one 18-yard pass. Riley Roush led the Tornadoes on the ground with 76 yards on 17 tries, followed by Holbrook with 25 yards and one TD on four carries. Huffman — who ran six times for 23 yards — completed 5-of-11 passes for 35 yards and two scores. McCutcheon led the hosts on the ground with 214 yards and two touchdowns on 21 carries, while Bellville — who led WHS with 36 yards and one touchdown on four receptions — added 141 yards and one TD on 14 rushes. After a 6-0 start, the Tornadoes have dropped back-to-back games and will try to rebound next week, when they host 3-5 South Gallia. Johnny is the one that ends up doing it.” Peck wasn’t the only head coach impressed with the efforts of Johnny Sheets on this night. Fourth-year WHS coach Dave Barr was proud of his troops and their collective efforts, but did mention that the SGHS senior was the difference in the outcome. “In my opinion, Johnny Sheets is the best running back in our conference this year. We knew coming in that it was going to take a heck of an effort for us to control him, and that isn’t an easy task,” Barr said. “I give our kids a lot of credit because they fought as hard as they could throughout the entire football game. In a game like this, one or two plays can make all the difference — and those were the plays we just couldn’t seem to find tonight.” After a scoreless first quarter, South Gallia capped an eight-play, 99-yard scoring drive with a 61-yard touchdown run by David Kuhn at the 6:52 mark of the second canto. A.J. Woodall added a successful PAT kick to give the guests a 7-0 advantage. The White Falcons countered with a 12-play, 65-yard drive that was capped off by a 15-yard touchdown catch by Colton Arrington from Bryton Grate, allowing the hosts to close to within 7-6 with 1:09 remaining in the half. On South Gallia’s ensuing possession, the Rebels tried their only pass attempt of the night from its own 38-yard line — and failed miserably. Chase Kemper’s pass was picked off by Wahama’s Brady Bumgarner, who then returned it 61 yards to the house while giving the hosts a 12-7 advantage with 49.3 seconds left until halftime. After being held to 55 yards on 11 carries in the first half, Johnny Sheets started to wear down the White Falcon defense — starting with the opening drive of the second half. The Rebels gave the ball to their senior five times during a nine-play, 77-yard drive that resulted in a Sheets one-yard touchdown run at the 7:23 mark, making it a 13-12 contest in favor the guests. SGHS forced a three- and-out on Wahama’s ensuing possession, then the Red and Gold strung together a 10-play, 89-yard scoring drive that was capped by the historic 34-yard TD run by Sheets. Woodall added a successful extra-point kick with 11:53 remaining in regulation, giving the Rebels a 20-12 cushion. South Gallia finished the night with a 21-9 advantage in first downs and was also penalized three times for 25 yards. WHS, conversely, forced the only takeaway of the night was flagged twice for 15 yards. Given the fact that Wahama has consistently dominated South Gallia over the years on the gridiron, Peck was equally proud of his kids on the defensive side of the ball. After all, the Rebels limited WHS to 2.6 yards per carry on the ground and allowed only one first down in the entire second half. “The thing about our defense is that 10 of the 11 starters are underclassmen, most of whom are getting their first taste of varsity football this year,” Peck said. “I’m definitely very proud of their efforts tonight against an opponent that we don’t normally have a great deal of success against historically. “We’ve taken a few whippings from Wahama in the past and we do remember some of the not so good times over here, so it is nice for everyone to finally have a little success over here against a pretty respect- able football program. This is something we can all be proud of moving forward.” Kuhn followed Johnny Sheets — who had eight carries for double-digit yardage — with 74 yards on six attempts. Jeffery Sheets also added 65 yards on 11 totes for the victors. Luther also led the Rebel defense with two sacks that resulted in a loss of 33 yards. Wyatt Edwards led the Wahama rushing attack with 60 yards for 14 carries, followed by Arrington with 36 yards on seven attempts. Bumgarner also had three rushes for 15 yards in the setback. Grate finished the night 8-of-13 passing for 120 yards, throwing two touchdowns in the process. Wahama had five different receivers catch a pass in the setback, with Arrington leading the wideouts with three grabs for 32 yards. Friday night’s gridiron contest was also the Homecoming game for Wahama. The White Falcons have now lost three straight decisions and are 0-4 at Bachtel Stadium this fall. South Gallia, on the other hand, snapped a three-game losing skid and improved to 3-2 in road games.

Phillips receives Legislative Partnership Award Buckeye Hills award honors leading advocates for Southeastern region COLUMBUS — State Rep. Debbie Phillips (D-Albany) recently received the Buckeye Hills-Hocking Valley Regional Development District Legislative Partnership Award. Recognizing a legislator who displays commitment to the principles and mission of the organization, Phillips was presented with the award at Buckeye Hills’ semi-annual meeting in Marietta. “Being selected for this award is an honor, as is the opportunity to serve the people of southeastern Ohio every day,” Phillips said. “Our region is too often left behind or forgotten, but the BuckPhillips eye Hills-Hocking Valley Regional Development District serves as a vital resource to help our communities get ahead. They do important work to advocate for our area, and I am proud they see me as a partner in that effort.” With more than four terms in the Legislature, Phillips has consistently fought to make sure Appalachian communities have equal access to important resources and opportunities, according to a news release announcing the award. She constantly keeps their needs in mind, from passing a measure to give rural students access to advanced foreign language and AP classes; to helping secure the largest stimulus project in the state for southeastern Ohio; to fighting to restore the Local Government Fund so counties, townships and municipalities can provide necessary services to their citizens. “I am honored to present our Legislative Partnership Award to Rep. Debbie Phillips,” said Buckeye Hills Executive Director Misty Casto. “She has worked tirelessly during her tenure to represent our region.” The Buckeye Hills-Hocking Valley Regional Development District serves to help communities across eight counties in the Appalachian region of Ohio identify needs and opportunities to improve infrastructure and quality of life for their citizens. Since its inception, Buckeye Hills has secured more than $500 million in grants and loans for education, health care, infrastructure, training and social services programs in the communities they serve. The Buckeye Hills region includes Hocking, Monroe, Morgan, Noble, Perry, and – in Rep. Phillips’ district – Athens, Meigs, and Washington counties.

RIVERFRONT REFLECTIONS Kindness and other contagious diseases Kindness matters. There, I said it. We spend our entire lives watching, listening and learning from the world around us. Like brush strokes on a blank canvas, each influence and personal experience leaves a permanent mark. Because everyone sees, hears and feels things differently, no two canvases ever end up the same. This is the beauty of individuality and diversity. Despite our many differences, humanity is the one common denominator we all share. Will we ever collectively agree on controversial topics? Probably not. Can we all make a conscious effort to be kind to one another?

There were now cows to milk, firewood to chop and pigs to feed. There was also a one-room schoolhouse a mile down the road. “I suppose city kids have their memories of city living,” Damron said. “I’m here to tell you that the country was not without its share of excitement.” He told the story of the time he went swimming in Twelve Pole Creek with a cousin. The two boys decided that the creek was dangerous because it wasn’t deep enough. So Damron got a couple of sticks of dynamite that his father used to remove tree stumps. “I lowered those pieces of dynamite into the water and connected the power leads to a battery,” Damron said. “The ground vibrated, and the noise scared the living life out of us both. Rocks, water and mud scattered all over the place, but that swimming area instantly became about four feet deeper.” There are memories of the oneroom schoolhouse he attended for eight years. The coal stove never produced enough heat in the winter, and air conditioning was a lifetime away. Drinking water was carried in buckets from a nearby farmhouse. Most of the students had their own cups to drink from, but they all shared the two outdoor “bathrooms” behind the school. “We used to scare the life out of the girls who went into the outhouse,” Damron said. “The walls had cracks in them, and a few of us boys would push sticks through the cracks and jab the girls on their side legs. You’d think they got bit by a black widow spider with all the screaming they made. It was fun until the day we jabbed the teacher, which brought an end to it.” Summers were an occasional trip to Huntington and Camden Park. There was that one trip to Dreamland Pool where his cousin belly flopped from the high dive and nearly drowned gasping for air through the pain. ALONG THE RIVER There were homemade sleds made by his older brother, and memories of the aroma of freshly cut Christmas trees and his favorite gift — the cork shooting “pop gun.” “The gun was a Christmas gift that I dearly loved,” Damron said. “I must have killed a thousand Indians around the farm with it. One day mom was in the kitchen putting something into the oven, and I popped her on the rear with a flying cork. That evening my father confiscated my weapon, and my days of killing Indians were over.” Grades one through eight completed elementary school for that oneroom frame building. He said goodbye to that wonderful teacher he jabbed in the outhouse, Ms. Irene Olmstead, and moved on to Wayne High School with all its modern amenities. “I lasted a little over two years in high school,” Damron said. “I had been no farther from home than Huntington and wanted to see more. Guys were coming back from the service with stories of places I only dreamed about, and I wanted to see them. Mom wouldn’t sign for me to join, but dad did and that’s all I needed. I joined the Air Force in July of 1952.” Damron would later receive his high school diploma in the service, but for now the train was leaving for New York and basic training at Sampson Air Force Base. “When I left home I was working for my dad who operated a saw mill,” Damron said. “The work was hard, the hours were long, and there wasn’t much time for much of anything else. That may have been my reason for wanting to leave, but I did see parts of this world that most never see.” Truth be told, there were parts of this world that he didn’t count on visiting. Like Duluth, Minnesota, his first assignment after basic training, a place that gets colder than Anchorage, Alaska. “I spent nearly three weeks at Shemya, Alaska, located way down the Aleutian island chain,” Damron said. “I was a loadmaster on a C-124 cargo transport, and the plane needed an engine replaced before we could leave. We finally made it back to Anchorage.
