Science matters

New Haven Elementary teacher Laura Cullen taught the states of matter while
making homemade “slime” at the school’s Science Night recently. Science Night
was conducted to coincide with this year’s Accelerated Reading theme, “Experiment
with Reading.” Various fun activities enticed students and parents, and showed that
science can be fun.

NEW HAVEN — States of
matter, pH and indicators,
concentration versus reaction
rate.
These were some of the lessons learned, but in a fun and
active way, when New Haven
Elementary School conducted
Science Night recently.
Hosted by the school’s reading committee, Science Night
was chosen to coincide with

this year’s Accelerated Reading theme, “Experiment with
Reading,” according to teacher Jacque Richardson. More
than 180 children, parents and
grandparents participated in
the event.
Several different classrooms
were opened up with teachers volunteering their time
to hold various fun activities
with the underlying lessons.
Laura Cullen taught students
about states of matter. Solids,
liquids and gases are states of

matter, but so are polymers,
as the children learned while
making homemade “slime.”
High school teachers
and students also joined
in. Wahama students in AP
Chemistry and AP Biology
conducted experiments for
the younger set. They were
rewarded with class bonus
points by teachers Jodie
Roush and Scott Johnson,
who also attended.

Ohio workplace
injuries, illnesses
below average
COLUMBUS — Recently released statistics
from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics show nonfatal workplace injuries and illnesses in Ohio are
below the national average.
The 2013 Survey of Occupational Injuries and
Illnesses found Ohio public and private employers
combined for an incidence rate of 3.0 cases per
100 full-time workers compared to the national
rate of 3.5. Ohio also saw a five percent drop in
total estimated injuries and illnesses with 122,600
recordable cases in 2013 compared to 129,200
cases in 2012.
“There is nothing more important than getting
our workers home safe at the end of each day, and
Ohio’s employers are clearly working hard to provide safer workplaces,” said Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation (BWC) Administrator/CEO
Steve Buehrer. “BWC offers a number of safety
consulting services, all of which are available to
employers at no additional charge. I encourage
every employer to learn more about how to protect their employees and keep their workplaces as
safe as possible.”
The SOII summarizes statistics at both national
and state levels and BWC has a cooperative agreement with BLS to administer SOII in Ohio. Each
year the BLS selects more than 4,000 private and
public employers in Ohio to participate in the
survey. Results from the mandatory survey are
intended to assist employers in assessing industry
trends to address safety issues.
Highlights of the SOII data for Ohio’s private
and public sectors follows:
Ohio private industry dataThe state’s private
employers had a lower incidence rate than all
neighboring states with 2.9 cases per 100 full-time
employees.
The healthcare and social assistance sector had
the highest injury and illness rate. Other industries with high rates were agriculture, manufacturing, transportation/warehousing and wholesale
trade.
Establishments with 50-249 employees had the
highest injury/illness rate, while those with 1-10
employees had the lowest.
There were more injury/illness cases with more
than one day away from work among men than
women.
There were more recordable cases involving
day(s) away from work among those within 45-54
years old than any other age group.

Another inch of snow expected Wed.
Chance for more wintry
weather later in week
By Lindsay Kriz

lkriz@civitasmedia.com

OHIO VALLEY — The biggest
snow storm of 2015 dumped quite
a bit of powder over southeast Ohio
— but exactly how many inches did
the region get?
According to the latest data from
the National Weather Service, the
Department of Highways has reported that Gallia County, as of Tuesday,
received 7 inches of snow from the
storm. As of Tuesday, Meigs County

A snow plow drives along Route 7 in Gallipolis. Although the main roads were mainly clear
Tuesday, some back roads still needed assistance in being cleared. Bulldozers were also
present to shovel snow away from parking spaces.

W.Va. oil train derails: Fires for hours
MOUNT CARBON, W.Va. (AP)
— Fires burned for hours Tuesday
after a train carrying 109 tankers
of crude oil derailed in a snowstorm alongside a West Virginia
creek, sending fireballs into the sky
and threatening the nearby water
supply.
Hundreds of families were
evacuated and two water treatment
plants were shut down after dozens of the cars left the tracks and
19 caught fire Monday afternoon,
creating shuddering explosions and
intense heat.
Part of the formation hit and set
fire to a house, and one person was
treated for smoke inhalation, but
no other injuries were reported,
according to a statement from the
train company, CSX.
“It was a little scary. It was like
an atomic bomb went off,” said
David McClung, who felt the
heat at his home about a half-mile
uphill. He said one of the explosions sent a fireball at least 300
feet into the air.
Fire crews had little choice Tuesday but to let the tanks — each

carrying up to 30,000 gallons of
crude — burn themselves out.
The train was carrying volatile
Bakken crude from North Dakota’s
shale fields to an oil shipping depot
in Yorktown, Virginia, using model
1232 tank cars, which include safety upgrades voluntarily adopted
by the industry four years ago, the
Federal Railroad Administration
confirmed.
However, a series of ruptures
and fires in recent derailments
involving model 1232s has the
National Transportation Safety
Board questioning their safety as
well, and the Department of Transportation has drafted new standards being reviewed by the White
House budget office.
All but two of the 109 cars were
tankers, and 26 of them left the
tracks, the governor’s spokesman
Chris Stadelman said.
Some tank fires were still on fire
late Tuesday morning, but federal
investigators were allowed to get
within 50 yards of the derailed
cars, and Appalachian Power crews
were cleared to repair a line and

restore electricity to about 900
customers.
The cause was not immediately
known. Snow was falling heavily
Monday — as much as 7 inches in
some places — but it’s not clear
if the weather had anything to do
with the derailment, which happened about 1:20 p.m. about 30
miles southeast of Charleston.
The West Virginia National
Guard was taking water samples
to determine whether oil seeped
into Armstrong Creek, a tributary of the Kanawha River. So
far, “we haven’t been able to
determine how much, if any,
crude oil made it into the river,”
but there were no reports of a
sheen so far, state Environmental Protection spokeswoman Kelley Gillenwater said.
CSX contractors also were monitoring the air for pollution linked
to the fires, and federal railroad
and hazardous materials officials
were probing the accident, which
prompted Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin
to declare a state of emergency.

Ohio top producer of Fulbright students
ATHENS — Ohio University has been recognized
by the U.S. Department of
State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs as a
top producer of 2014-2015
Fulbright U.S. Students.
The Fulbright Program
is the U.S. government’s
flagship international educational exchange program.
Top-producing institutions
are highlighted annually in
The Chronicle of Higher
Education.
With ten Fulbright
recipients named from the
University this year, OHIO
placed on the list with fellow research institutions
such as Harvard University,
Johns Hopkins University,
Duke University, Boston
College and Stanford University.
“Ohio University takes
great pride in our students’
continued success in the
Fulbright U.S. Student Program,” said Ohio University President Roderick J.
McDavis. “Our standing as
a top-producer of Fulbright
students is a reflection of
OHIO’s academic strength
and our commitment to
global education. Our
faculty and staff strongly
support personal development through the pursuit
of diverse international
opportunities. We are proud
of our Fulbright awardees
and thankful for the many
ways that their experiences
will contribute to broader
perspectives, greater understanding and transformative
learning in our community

and communities around
the world.”
The Fulbright competition is administered through
the Office of Nationally Competitive Awards
(ONCA) in the Honors
Tutorial College at Ohio
University. The U.S. Student Fulbright Scholarship
Program provides grant
funding for undergraduate
and graduate students to
study abroad to conduct
research, teach English as
a foreign language or further creative activities and
performing arts training.
Thirty-five applicants competed for awards in 2014-15,
a University record.
The 2014-15 Fulbright
scholarship recipients
are:Breanna Carrero, College of Arts and Sciences,
German Education and
Science Education major —
Germany, English teaching
assistantship.
Micia Clemmons, Scripps
College of Communication,
master’s student in media
arts and studies — South
Korea, English teaching
assistantship.
Raul Inesta, Honors Tutorial College, philosophy
major — South Korea, English teaching assistantship.
Barbara Jewell, Honors
Tutorial College, art history
major — Germany, English
teaching assistantship.
Darian Pinkston, College
of Arts and Sciences, French
and linguistics double major
— Brazil, English teaching
assistantship.
Amanda Roden, College

of Arts and Sciences, Spanish major — Argentina,
English teaching assistantship.
Don Sim, College of
Health Sciences and Professions, master’s student
in public health — South
Korea, public health,
“Health Literacy and the
Quality of Physician-Patient
Communication in South
Korea.”
Avery Tucker, College
of Arts and Sciences,
environmental and plant
biology major — China,
biology, “Bacterial population dynamics in Chinese
stinky tofu.”
Clare Volz, College of
Arts and Sciences, integrated language arts major
— Indonesia, English teaching assistant.
Megan Westervelt,
Scripps College of Communication, master’s student
in visual communication —
Ecuador, photography, “A
Visual Exploration of Biodiversity Conservation Efforts
in Amazonian Ecuador.”
“Having Ohio University
Fulbright student awardees
recognized at the national
level, and having them
tie the number of awards
(10) earned by students
at Stanford, UCLA, Notre
Dame, Boston College and
Tufts is a wonderful honor,”
said Beth Clodfelter, ONCA
director. “Those students
worked extremely hard to
become strong applicants
and many faculty members
shared valuable advice with
them. This was an unusu-

ally successful year for our
English teaching assistantship applicants and a great
deal of credit goes to the
Department of Linguistics
and to the professors that
teach the ‘Teaching English
as a Foreign Language’
classes.”
Student’s merits stand on
their own, but assistance
from faculty and staff in
the form of mentoring,
recommendation letters and
foreign language evaluations
also factor into the scholarship decision.
Additional academic
opportunities also help Ohio
University students stand
out against the competition. Faculty are offering
an increasing number of
undergraduate and graduate
research opportunities and
are teaching research methodology classes to prepare
students to critically analyze
and assess the world around
them. Classes offered within
the linguistics department
are also helping them learn
best practices for teaching
English as a foreign language.
Outside the classroom,
American and international
students are paired through
the Ohio Program of Intensive English (OPIE) program’s weekly conversation
hour to learn more about
each other’s culture and
language. Students may also
teach foreign language to
local elementary children to
broaden their skill set and
prepare for their Fulbright
experience.

THEIR VIEW

ISIS is for
real, but how
best to fight it?
President Obama’s suggestion that he would be
amenable to “limited” deployment of U.S. ground
troops to combat the so-called Islamic State signals a change of tone from the commander in chief
that he may be starting to take the threat of the
Islamist group more seriously than his previous
rhetoric had suggested.
But consideration of deployment must be
accompanied by a clear and systematic approach
to military engagement, one that has yet to be
articulated by the president. History teaches us
that an armed conflict that ostensibly begins as
limited all too often escalates. So it is unsurprising
that many, if not most, Americans are wary of this
nation slouching toward its third war in this young
century.
To his credit, President Obama submitted to
Congress a letter seeking formal authorization for
using military force, rather than attempting to do
so by presidential directive. This should prompt
congressional debate on what ought to be done.
The Islamic State’s army of about 31,500,
according to a CIA estimate this past fall, “poses
a threat to the people and stability of Iraq, Syria
and the broader Middle East, and to U.S. national
security,” Mr. Obama warned.
But still, if there is to be war, if America’s sons
and daughters in uniform are to be ordered into
battle yet again, President Obama must begin to
acknowledge the true threat of ISIS and its worldview, as well as whence it stems. Word choices
matter.
President Obama has dismissed many ISIS
atrocities as one-off terrorist attacks when, in fact,
it is much more than a mere splinter group: It has
a standing army. It controls significant land mass.
And its forces have motivation to wage a global
religious war.
It is not a group with which to trifle. The president must describe it as such, and address the
challenge appropriately before ISIS gains additional strength and resources to wreak havoc more
broadly. As of now, his signals are mixed.
Mr. Obama told lawmakers his draft AUMF
would not authorize “long-term, large-scale
ground operations,” such as those undertaken by
his predecessor in both Afghanistan and Iraq.
He also said he would deploy troops only under
such circumstances as “rescue operations involving U.S. or coalition personnel” or “use of special
operation forces” to take out ISIS leadership.
It remains to be seen whether President Obama
elicits the bipartisan support for his proposed
AUMF that he seeks. In the meantime, we take
comfort in the signals from Capitol Hill that neither Republicans nor Democrats will rubber-stamp
the president’s request to use force.

increased ratings; they got him on
the air — here, there and almost
everywhere. The air became a
lather of bigotry that could not be
washed away; it held on and got
embarrassingly funky, in almost a
hip-hop way.
MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow,
in a segment found on YouTube
called “Maddow: Posse Comitatus,
‘sovereign citizens,’ Jim Crow,
the Reconstruction, and Cliven
Bundy,” smashed Fox News by
clearly showing how Bundy had
tried to straighten his hair with
hammer blows. It was one of the
best television brief histories that
addressed and documented Confederate bigotry of the sort often
dismissed as “playing the race
card” by the staff of Fox News.
Restated redneck rhetoric refers
to even the mention of race as a
form of conning and intimidating
well-meaning and truth-seeking
whites who WILL NOT be hustled. But Bundy merely laid it all
out and showed how thoroughly
the far-right influence on the GOP
makes it possible for an updated
redneck to have a say.
Maddow is the female version
of Jon Stewart, but when Stewart
got on Sean Hannity, the boy in
the bushes at Fox News made
it obvious how fake the workers
at Rupert Murdoch’s fake news
express were, using Brian Williams as a perfect example of the
“liberal” media’s bias.
After all, it could have found
another job for Sean Hannity.

Henson, Havlicek
among those
headed into Hall
KANSAS CITY, Mo.
(AP) — When he arrived
at Illinois in 1975, the
first thing Lou Henson
did was preach patience.
The new coach wanted
to build the Fighting Illini
into a national contender,
but he wanted to do it
with in-state prospects,
even if it’d take a while.
So that first year, Henson
and his young assistants
met with more than 400
high school coaches,
building relationships for
the future.
It took five years before
they paid off, and even
then it was a trip to the
NIT. It wasn’t until 1981
that Henson finally took
his team to the NCAA
tournament. But with the
foundation laid, Henson
would take them to 11
more tournaments and
a Final Four appearance
in 1989, along the way
becoming one of the most
respected tacticians in
the college game.
On Tuesday, he learned
he was headed for the
College Basketball Hall of
Fame.
Henson will be joined
in this year’s class by
fellow coaches Don
Donoher of Dayton and
C. Felton “Zip” Gayles
of Langston, and five
players: Ohio State AllAmerican John Havlicek,
Indiana standout Quinn
Buckner, Kansas State
star Rolando Blackman,
North Carolina trailblazer
Charlie Scott and Long
Beach State star Ed
Ratleff.
They will be enshrined
Nov. 20 during a ceremony at the Arvest Bank
Theatre in Kansas City.
“Don Donoher and Lou
Henson took their teams
to the NCAA Final Four
while Zip Gayles was a
trailblazer and role model
for athletes and coaches,”
said Reggie Minton,
the deputy executive
director of the National
Association of Basketball
Coaches and chair of the
Hall of Fame selection
panel. “The men selected
as players include some
great all-around athletes
who helped lead their
teams to championships
in the NCAA, Olympic
Games and the NBA.”
Henson began his
coaching career at
Hardin-Simmons, then
built a perennial winner
at New Mexico State. But
it wasn’t until he arrived
at Illinois that he estab-

lished a powerhouse, and
even then, it was only
after the kind of patience
that few coaches are
granted these days.
“We had a lot of great
talent in Illinois, and I
said, ‘Look, we’re not
going to win for a while,’”
Henson recalled, “but
we’re going to try to build
relations in our state. And
we did.”
By the time he took the
Fighting Illini to the Final
Four, where they fell to
Big Ten rival Michigan,
all of his starters had
grown up in Chicago or
elsewhere in the state.
Henson had plenty of
opportunities over the
years to coach against
Donoher, his fellow
Hall of Fame inductee.
Donoher spent his entire
25-year career at Dayton,
leading the Flyers to
eight NCAA tournaments
and the 1967 title game,
where they lost to John
Wooden and UCLA.
Gayles also coached
football and baseball for
Langston. He won nearly
600 games in basketball
with teams that included
longtime Harlem Globetrotters star Marques
Haynes.
Among the players in
this year’s Hall of Fame
class is a pair whose
iconic coaches recently
passed away: Scott, who
was North Carolina’s
first black scholarship
player for Dean Smith,
and Ratleff, who starred
in the 1970s for Jerry
Tarkanian at Long Beach
State.
Blackman was the Big
Eight player of the year
for Kansas State before
embarking on a 13-year
NBA career with the
Mavericks and Knicks;
Buckner was a member
of Bob Knight’s national
title team at Indiana in
1976 before winning
NBA and Olympic titles;
and Havlicek helped the
Buckeyes win a national
title before winning eight
NBA titles over a 16-year
career with the Celtics.
The latest round of
inductees will follow a
star-studded class from
last year that included
former LSU standout
Shaquille O’Neal and
Duke icon Grant Hill.
“I still think they made
a mistake,” Henson said,
offering a good-natured
laugh. “There are a lot
of people out there that
deserve it more than me.”

Point Pleasant senior Cody Sroufe (21) fires a three-pointer
during the Big Blacks loss at Gallia Academy on January 20.

LOGAN, W.Va. — A total team effort leads to outstanding offensive output for the Wildcats.
The Logan boys basketball team had 14 players score
and marked a season-high in points Saturday night, as the
Wildcats rolled to an 87-43 victory over non-conference
guest Point Pleasant.
Logan (12-3) — which had lost back-to-back games
headed into Saturday’s tilt — stormed out to a 28-10
lead through eight minutes of play. The Big Blacks (3-15)
were held to just four points in the second canto and
trailed 52-14 at halftime.
Point Pleasant held with LHS in the third quarter, as
both teams marked 16 points, but the Wildcats closed out
the 44-point triumph with a 19-13 fourth quarter run.
Brian Gibbs led the Big Blacks with 12 points, followed
by Cody Sroufe and Trey Tucker with nine apiece. Douglas Workman marked six points, Bradley Gibbs added
three, while Gage Buskirk and Parker Rairden rounded
out the PPHS scoring with two markers each.
Austin Tre-week Noe led the Wildcats with 25 points,
followed by Khalil Murphy with 10. Kyle Porter and
Zachery Acord both finished with seven points, Levi
Davis, Jamal Minter and Amechi Chukwu-Noe each
added six, while Kareem Clansy finished with five. William Akers, Jalen Cook and Timothy Toler each posted
three points, while Donald Toppings, Samuel Justice and
Terrence Chapman rounded out the LHS total with two
points apiece.
Point Pleasant, which has lost 11 straight games,
returns to action on Thursday at Winfield. The Big
Blacks defeated the Generals on December 23, by a 57-51
count in Mason County.

500 wins,
scoring records,
turnarounds
By Rusty Miller
Associated Press

There were a lot of watershed moments around
Ohio hardcourts in the past week …
Doug Krauss picked up his 500th career win in
a 69-65 boys win over Liberty Center, improving
to 500-199 in 30 seasons at Archbold; Minster
girls coach Nann Stechschulte won her 500th
game (84 at Cincinnati Oak Hills, 416 at Minster)
last Thursday in a 54-42 win over Coldwater;
Arcadia’s Molly Glick scored 12 points in a 64-45
loss to New Riegel, but did become the school’s
scoring leader with 1,445 points, surpassing the
girls record of 1,441 previously held by 1998
graduate Sara May; Fostoria St. Wendelin’s Kamryn Troike scored a school-record 37 points in a
64-59 loss to Upper Scioto Valley, also adding 13
rebounds for her 18th double-double in 20 games
this season; Ottawa-Glandorf’s Elissa Ellerbrock
scored a school-record 35 points in the Titans’
76-46 win against Elida; Delta’s girls won their
first outright NWOAL title with a 60-33 win over
Hamler Patrick Henry — the Panthers’ first crown
of any kind since 1987; and, after starting the season 0-18, Paulding’s girls have won two straight,
beating Continental 39-34 and Lima Perry 55-48.
A LOT TO CELEBRATE: Trenton Edgewood’s
girls finished the regular season 19-3, tying the
school record for wins while earning a share of the
Southwest Ohio Conference championship with
Oxford Talawanda.
It’s the first time Edgewood has ever won a conference title in girls basketball.
BULLETIN BOARD MATERIAL: Liberty
Township Lakota East’s Alex White became the
school’s leading career rebounder in a 57-48 win
over Fairfield; Ethan Vasquez hit eight 3-point
shots, scoring 30 points, in leading Delta to an
86-70 victory over Hamler Patrick Henry; and a
16-1 third-quarter advantage rallied Miller City
from a 27-23 halftime deficit and the Wildcats
beat Lima Perry 63-43, snapping Perry’s 14-game
winning streak;
BEATING THE BUZZER: Hicksville rallied
from a five-point deficit in the final minute to go
up on Paulding 59-58 with 2.1 seconds left —
only to have Treston Gonzales convert a full-court
pass from Alex Arellano into a bucket for a 60-59
Paulding win.
NOT MISSING, IN ACTION: Junior guard
Xavier Simpson scored 31 points in a 72-65 win
over Findlay last week. He’s now playing for Lima
Senior, after leading Lima Central Catholic to the
Division III state title game a year ago. He transferred to Senior after his father, Quincey Simpson,
was hired as head coach.

Former owner
of MLB steroid
clinic sentenced
MIAMI (AP) — The
former owner of a
Florida medical clinic
who posed as a doctor
and illegally supplied steroid injections and other
performance-enhancing
drugs to professional
baseball players and
even high school athletes
was sentenced Tuesday
to four years in federal
prison.
Anthony Bosch —
who choked back tears in
court and said the clinic
was a legitimate business
gone awry — sought
a more lenient term
because of his cooperation in the investigation,
but U.S. District Judge
Darrin Gayles refused.
“This defendant was
the most culpable in this
conspiracy,” the judge
said.
Prosecutors said Bosch
could still get his sentence reduced through
further cooperation,
including potential trial
testimony.
Gayles said Bosch
falsely held himself out
as a licensed medical
doctor at his Biogenesis
of America clinic, where
he accepted thousands of
dollars a month to provide steroid injections to
players such as New York
Yankees star Alex Rodriguez and Ryan Braun of
the Milwaukee Brewers.
Most troubling, Gayles
said, was Bosch’s injections of high school players in the Miami area.
“He was the mastermind,” Gayles said. “He

was the one who recruited others to assist him.”
Miami U.S. Attorney
Wifredo Ferrer issued
a statement saying the
message of the case is
that “cheating doesn’t
pay and individuals like
Bosch, who distribute
performance enhancing
drugs to athletes and,
more importantly, to our
children, will be held
accountable for their
actions.”
Bosch, 51, pleaded
guilty in October to
conspiracy to distribute
testosterone, the sixth
person charged in the
Biogenesis case to do so.
Bosch and Rodriguez are
expected to testify if the
last two defendants —
Rodriguez cousin Yuri
Sucart and ex-University
of Miami pitching coach
Lazaro Collazo — go to
trial as scheduled in early
April.
MLB imposed a record
season-long suspension
last year on Rodriguez,
one of 14 players penalized in the scandal. The
Yankees say Rodriguez,
39, is no longer their
third baseman and will
have a chance to earn
at-bats as a designated
hitter.
MLB spokesman Pat
Courtney declined to
comment.
A few hours after
Bosch’s sentencing,
Rodriguez issued a vague
handwritten apology to
fans saying he wants to
“put this chapter behind
me and play some ball.”

A gym suit jacket with USA fashioned onto it, a whistle and a stop watch that belonged to famed U.S. Olympic hockey coach Herb Brooks
sit at Heritage Auctions in Dallas. The items along with other mementos surrounding the 1980 gold medal run that belonged to Brooks
are being auctioned Feb. 21.

Brooks’ Olympic stuff up for auction
By Dave Campbell
AP Sports Writer

The “Miracle on Ice” was a triumph years in the making under
the careful, demanding and creative
guidance of coach Herb Brooks.
Some of the documents that were
part of the improbable U.S. victory
over the Soviet Union during the
1980 Winter Olympics are now for
sale, along with a bunch of other
belongings of the late hockey great.
From the whistle he used to push
players in practice to the 10-karat
ring he received for Team USA’s
gold medal, close to 40 lots of Herb
Brooks memorabilia will be auctioned off this weekend on the 35th
anniversary of the semifinal victory
over the Soviets that’s widely considered the biggest upset in sports
history.
“Between me and my sister and
my mom, having to store this stuff
and track it down and babysit it
was kind of a pain, quite frankly,”
said Dan Brooks, the son of Herb
Brooks. “We decided this might be
a good time to see if anyone has an
interest in the stuff to just simplify
our lives.”
The proceeds will go toward college for the Hall of Fame coach’s
now-teenage grandchildren as well
as to the Herb Brooks Foundation,
created after his death in 2003 to
increase youth opportunity in the
sport, particularly in the inner cities.
The gold medal isn’t for sale, but
there are many other “Miracle”
mementoes available in the collection, estimated by Heritage Auctions to be worth at least $200,000.
The big-ticket item is the ring,
valued at $50,000. There will be a
live auction in New York on Saturday night, with some of the items

being sold online on Sunday night.
Online bidding has already begun.
Who knows? Maybe there will
be some interested Russian buyers
this weekend.
“Hopefully it doesn’t fall into the
wrong hands,” Chris Ivy, the director of sports auctions for Heritage,
said with a laugh.
The items include Brooks’ 1974
and 1976 NCAA championship
rings from his time as coach at the
University of Minnesota, the jersey
he wore as a player for Team USA
on the 1968 Olympic team and
even the gaudy shearling jacket he
rustically donned with the rest of
the Americans for the 1980 opening ceremony with their cowboy
hats and blue jeans.
The most unique pieces of
Brooks’ belongings, though, are his
hand-written notes and typed letters related to the “Miracle” team
that not only provide an old-fashioned snapshot of the pre-internet
days but a window into the no-frills
personality of the revered and
sometimes-feared coach:
— A bound book with a complete
set of box scores from the games in
the 1980 Olympic tournament.
— A blue ring binder with questionnaires filled out by prospective
players, including eventual star
Mike Eruzione’s self-described best
assets: “Two way player and penalty killer.”
— The letter Brooks wrote
to the U.S. Olympic Committee
declaring his candidacy for the
coaching position, spelling out a
detailed plan for on-ice strategy,
player selection and program development in accompanying pages.
— Rosters from college conference all-star teams, names of players in amateur leagues and the

1978 NHL draft list, with some
prospects crossed out in black
marker.
— His script notes for the
screenwriters of the 2004 “Miracle”
movie are for sale, too, showing
some suggested adjustments to the
dialogue to more closely represent
his hard-nosed style.
Then there’s his 1980 day planner, noting the visit to the White
House in Washington on Feb. 25,
an appearance on Johnny Carson’s
show in Los Angeles on Feb. 27
and his St. Paul Johnson High
School 25th reunion on Aug. 15.
As for the upset of the Soviets at
Lake Placid, for the entry on Feb.
22 he simply wrote:
“Game vs. Russians. W 4-3!”
The connection between the
Brooks family and Heritage officials was made through Eruzione,
who was in the audience two years
ago when some of his Olympic
memorabilia was auctioned off. He
watched bewildered when the first
item on the block, his stick, sold
for over $260,000.
Initially resistant to the idea,
Eruzione relented once he realized
much of his gear had become mere
attic filler in his Massachusetts
home. The stuff fetched more
than $1.3 million. Already financially sound, Eruzione divided the
profit among his three children and
donated to charities and schools he
attended.
“The memory for me is winning
the tournament,” Eruzione said,
“not the jerseys or the sticks or
the elbow pads or the shin pads.
My memories are Mark Johnson,
Jimmy Craig, Kenny Morrow,
Davey Christian and each guy on
my team. There’s not a price tag on
those memories.”

A-Rod gives apology but no explanation
NEW YORK (AP) — It
appears the only place
Alex Rodriguez might
detail his drug use is on a
witness stand.
The ever controversial
New York Yankees star
decided against holding a news conference
ahead of his return to the
team following a oneyear absence. He issued
a vague five-paragraph
handwritten apology
Tuesday “for the mistakes
that led to my suspension” but failed to provide
specifics about how and
why he resumed using
performance-enhancing
drugs for at least the
second stretch of his celebrated career.
Readying to report back
to the Yankees following
an unprecedented seasonlong ban for violating
baseball’s drug agreement
and labor contract, Rodriguez apologized to team
officials in person during
a meeting at the ballpark
on Feb. 10. They suggested he hold a news conference before the start of
spring training this Friday
and offered the use of
Yankee Stadium.
Rodriguez declined.

He held an apologetic
session with reporters in
2009 at the team’s facility in Tampa, Florida,
after he admitted using
banned PEDs while with
Texas from 2001-03. That
was before Major League
Baseball had a drug agreement with penalties.
“The only thing I ask
from this group today and
the American people is
to judge me from this day
forward,” he said then.
But he apparently did
not want to face questions from media about
his latest involvement
with PEDs — although
he could be required to
testify in federal court if
his cousin, Yuri Sucart,
and former University
of Miami pitching coach
Lazaro Collazo go to trial
on charges they committed crimes in their
involvement with the Biogenesis of America drug
clinic. Rodriguez admitted in court documents he
used PEDs.
ESPN The Magazine
said it planned to release
an interview Wednesday
in which Rodriguez said
he thinks Bosch gave him
a placebo. Rodriguez also

said he considered retirement early in his suspension, is in therapy and
secretly visits colleges.
He told ESPN he took a
marketing class during his
suspension and wants to
complete his education.
Baseball Commissioner
Bud Selig suspended the
three-time AL MVP for
211 games in August
2013, citing conduct from
2010-12 uncovered during MLB’s investigation
of Biogenesis, which was
based in Coral Gables,
Florida, not far from
Rodriguez’s home.
Arbitrator Fredric
Horowitz reduced the
penalty to the 2014 season, finding “clear and
convincing evidence”
Rodriguez used three
banned substances and
twice tried to obstruct
baseball’s drug investigation.
Hoping to overcome the
suspension and a pair of
hip surgeries, Rodriguez
is due to report to the
Yankees on Feb. 25 and
start workouts the following day. He has not played
a full season since 2007.
Rodriguez addressed
his statement “to the

fans” and said “I take
full responsibility for the
mistakes that led to my
suspension for the 2014
season” without explaining what those mistakes
were.
“I regret that my
actions made the situation worse than it needed
to be,” he wrote in legible
blue script. “To Major
League Baseball, the
Yankees, the Steinbrenner
family, the players’ association and you, the fans,
I can only say I’m sorry.”
Rodriguez said “I
accept the fact that many
of you will not believe my
apology or anything that I
say at this point. I understand why, and that’s on
me.”
“It was gracious of the
Yankees to offer me the
use of Yankee Stadium for
this apology but I decided
the next time I am in
Yankee Stadium, I should
be in pinstripes doing my
job,” he said.
Biogenesis’ owner,
Anthony Bosch, was sentenced to four years in
prison on Tuesday after
pleading guilty in October
to a charge of conspiracy
to distribute testosterone.

Reds open training looking for new starting rotation
CINCINNATI (AP) — The
Reds open spring training on
Wednesday with a couple of
openings in the starting rotation — an unusual situation for
Cincinnati.
Starters Mat Latos and Alfredo Simon were traded in the
offseason, a significant overhaul
to what was their strength last
season. Cincinnati’s rotation was
the one constant in a disappointing, 86-loss season that saw the
offense struggle and the bullpen
implode.
Cincinnati upgraded the bullpen by adding Burke Badenhop
and Kevin Gregg. First baseman

Joey Votto is expected back from
a left leg injury that sidelined
him for most of last season. That
leaves a lot of the focus on filling
out the rotation in February and
March.
“We feel we have a competitive team,” manager Bryan Price
said. “This isn’t a rebuilt situation. So we have to feel as confident as we can one-through-five
in our rotation.”
There are even some questions about No. 1 as pitchers and
catchers report on Wednesday in
Goodyear, Arizona. Their first
workout will be on Thursday,
with the first full-squad workout

scheduled for Feb. 24.
Johnny Cueto became the
Reds’ first 20-game winner since
1988. He’s in the final year of his
deal. The Reds want to keep him
but aren’t sure whether they’ll
be able to get an agreement on
another big contract.
He’s followed in the rotation
by Homer Bailey (9-5, 3.71 ERA
in 23 starts) and Mike Leake
(11-13, 3.70 ERA in 33 starts).
The Reds are hoping that Anthony DeSclafani, who was acquired
from Miami as part of the trade
for Latos, will fill one of the two
open spots. DeSclafani went 2-2
with a 6.27 ERA in five starts

and eight relief appearances.
Left-hander Tony Cingrani
was 2-8 with a 4.55 ERA in 11
starts and two relief appearances
last season, when he was sidelined by a sore shoulder.
Another candidate is righthander Raisel Iglesias, who
signed a seven-year, $27 million
deal last June. He defected from
Cuba in November 2013 and
worked out for major league
scouts in Haiti. Given his time
away from competitive baseball,
the Reds aren’t sure how much
to expect from him this year.
They’re open to using him as
a reliever this season and finding

Reds open training looking for starting rotation
CINCINNATI (AP) — The
Reds open spring training on
Wednesday with a couple of
openings in the starting rotation — an unusual situation for
Cincinnati.
Starters Mat Latos and Alfredo Simon were traded in the
offseason, a significant overhaul to what was their strength
last season. Cincinnati’s rotation was the one constant in a
disappointing, 86-loss season
that saw the offense struggle
and the bullpen implode.
Cincinnati upgraded the bullpen by adding Burke Badenhop
and Kevin Gregg. First baseman Joey Votto is expected
back from a left leg injury that
sidelined him for most of last
season. That leaves a lot of the
focus on filling out the rotation
in February and March.

“We feel we have a competitive team,” manager Bryan
Price said. “This isn’t a rebuilt
situation. So we have to feel
as confident as we can onethrough-five in our rotation.”
There are even some questions about No. 1 as pitchers
and catchers report on Wednesday in Goodyear, Arizona. Their
first workout will be on Thursday, with the first full-squad
workout scheduled for Feb. 24.
Johnny Cueto became the
Reds’ first 20-game winner since
1988. He’s in the final year of
his deal. The Reds want to keep
him but aren’t sure whether
they’ll be able to get an agreement on another big contract.
He’s followed in the rotation
by Homer Bailey (9-5, 3.71
ERA in 23 starts) and Mike
Leake (11-13, 3.70 ERA in 33

starts). The Reds are hoping
that Anthony DeSclafani, who
was acquired from Miami as
part of the trade for Latos, will
fill one of the two open spots.
DeSclafani went 2-2 with a 6.27
ERA in five starts and eight
relief appearances.
Left-hander Tony Cingrani
was 2-8 with a 4.55 ERA in 11
starts and two relief appearances last season, when he was
sidelined by a sore shoulder.
Another candidate is righthander Raisel Iglesias, who
signed a seven-year, $27 million deal last June. He defected
from Cuba in November 2013
and worked out for major
league scouts in Haiti. Given
his time away from competitive
baseball, the Reds aren’t sure
how much to expect from him
this year.

They’re open to using him as
a reliever this season and finding out what they’ve got.
“How much can he handle
as far as the workload goes?”
Price said. “Long-term, we see
him as a starting pitcher. The
question is do we feel comfortable giving him enough innings
to be a starter in our rotation
all season long?”
The rotation hasn’t been so
unsettled since 2010, when
Edinson Volquez was returning
from elbow surgery and Leake
was competing with Travis
Wood for a spot in the rotation.
The Reds won the NL Central
that season and lost to Philadelphia in the opening round of
the playoffs.
“It looks a lot more like
2010,” Price said. “We had a
handful of young prospects and

somehow we carved out a nice
rotation for a playoff team.”
Votto will get a lot of attention
from the medical staff as well
as the coaching staff once he
starts working out. He missed
99 games last season and didn’t
play after July 5 because of
strained muscles above his left
knee, which affected his mobility and his swing.
When the medical staff
checked him out last month,
Votto appeared to be fully
recovered.
“His strength was outstanding and the stamina was good,”
Price said. “So we’re just looking at him hitting the ground
running when Joey gets out
to Goodyear and see with our
own eyes where we’re at. But
we’re confident he’s going to be
ready to go.”

Rivalry game moves back to campus

Browns hire
Kevin O’Connell

By Joe Kay

CLEVELAND (AP) — Kevin O’Connell got
Johnny Manziel ready for last year’s NFL draft. The
Browns will count on him to help make Manziel —
or some other quarterback — a quality starter.
Cleveland hired O’Connell as its quarterbacks
coach on Tuesday, officially announcing an important addition to coach Mike Pettine’s staff.
O’Connell, who played briefly in the league after
being drafted out of San Diego State, not only
worked with Manziel last year but recently helped
Oregon star Marcus Mariota and Baylor’s Bryce
Petty, two quarterbacks the Browns could select this
year.
The 29-year-old O’Connell previously worked with
Pettine and new Browns offensive coordinator John
DeFilippo in New York when he played for the Jets.
He replaces Dowell Loggains, who was not retained
following last season.
“Kevin has already shown a knack for individual
teaching at a high level,” Pettine said. “Our experience being around him makes us confident he will
easily transition into being an extremely valuable
member of our staff. He was outstanding in the
interview and instantly fit in with our group of
offensive coaches that sat in.”
O’Connell was drafted in the third round by New
England in 2008, appearing only briefly in two
games. O’Connell later began a career as a private
quarterbacks coach. He helped Manziel sharpen
his skills, enticing the Browns to draft the former
Heisman Trophy winner from Texas A&amp;M in the
first round. The celebrated rookie spent most of the
season as Brian Hoyer’s backup before making two
forgettable starts.
Manziel’s problems worsened in the offseason
when he entered rehab for an unspecified condition.
The Browns have vowed their support for Manziel,
hoping he can straighten out his life and then fulfill
his on-field potential.
Over the past month, O’Connell has been working
out Petty and Mariota, the reigning Heisman winner
regarded along with Florida State’s Jameis Winston
as the top two QBs in this year’s class.
“I feel like we were able to accomplish a lot and
he’s going to be in a really good situation moving
forward wherever that may be,” O’Connell said of
Mariota. “I really was thankful to the organization
for allowing me to do that. I made a commitment
to Marcus and it wouldn’t have felt right not following through with him knowing that he trusted me
for this important time preparing to start his NFL
career.”
The Browns also hired senior offensive assistant
Kurt Roper, assistant wide receivers coach Frank
Edgerly and offensive quality control coach Michael
McCarthy.

CINCINNATI — Cincinnati’s intra-city college
basketball rivalry is back
on campus.
Xavier will make the
2 1/2-mile drive to the
University of Cincinnati on
Wednesday night to play
their annual game. What
makes this trip different is
that it’s been three years in
the making.
The last time the game
was on a campus was Dec.
10, 2011, when Xavier was
the host and won by 23
points. An on-court brawl
in the closing seconds led
to four players from each
team suspended and hurt
both programs’ reputations.
The schools considered
putting the rivalry on hold,
but decided instead to
move it to a neutral site —
a downtown arena — for
two years. There were no
incidents as the teams
split the two games, with
Xavier winning last season
64-47.
Only one player remains
from the brawl — Cincinnati forward Octavius
Ellis, who was suspended
for six games. For most
players on both teams,
it’s the first time they’ve
played the rivalry game on
a campus.
For many, it’s their first
such game at all.
“We have six new guys,”
Cincinnati associate head
coach Larry Davis said on
Tuesday. “You address it
because of the fact you’ve
got guys that have never
been in this game before.
You’ve heard about it, but
you don’t quite know what
it means.”
Freshman Trevon Bluiett, who leads Xavier with
12.5 points per game, is
eager to finally experience
it.

Al Behrman | AP file

Xavier’s Dezmine Wells, left, and center Kenny Frease (32) are restrained while a Cincinnati coach
holds back a player during a fight at the end of the Xavier-Cincinnati game Dec. 10, 2011, in
Cincinnati. The fracas during the crosstown rivalry ended with eight players suspended. The rivalry
is resumes today in a new setting.

“I’ve been hearing about
it since I stepped on campus over the summer,”
Bluiett said. “People have
been talking about this
game. Even though we’re
supposed to take it like just
another game, basically it’s
not.”
The roster turnover has
helped erase the raw feelings from three years ago,
turning the game back into
more of a friendly rivalry.
“It’s very cool,” Xavier
senior center Matt Stainbrook said. “It’s something
that gets the attention of
the whole city. To divide a
city in two different sides
and make them have to
choose a side, it’s fun.”
Xavier has won five of
the last seven and 10 of the
last 15 in the rivalry. Both
teams are struggling head-

ing into their rematch,
with Xavier (16-10) losing
three of its last five and
Cincinnati (17-8) dropping
two straight.
This one is as much
about boosting their
NCAA tournament bids
as it is about winning city
bragging rights.
“We need a spark,” Cincinnati guard Kevin Johnson said. “There would be
nothing better than to get
a win and get a spark by
beating Xavier.”
One element is still
missing from the rivalry.
Cincinnati’s Mick Cronin
hasn’t coached a game
since December because
of a problem with a blood
vessel in the back of his
head that’s being treated
with medication.
He’ll be at the pregame

practice on Wednesday,
then go home to watch
on television while Davis
leads the Bearcats. It’ll be
the 17th game that Cronin
has missed.
Xavier coach Chris
Mack has talked to Cronin during his tough few
months away from games.
He texted him a quote
from former Xavier coach
Skip Prosser who liked
to say that coaching was
great except for the games.
“I said somehow you’ve
managed to get coach
Prosser’s dream job,
being a head coach and
not coaching any games,”
Mack joked.
The Bearcats expect
their first capacity crowd
at their 13,176-seat arena
on Wednesday when the
rivalry returns home.
