Cozart. Cozart is charged with aggravated murder, tampering with evidence and aggravated robbery in the May 9 death of Wallace R. Chafin at the Meigs Motel. A jury trial in the case is scheduled for Jan. 30 at 9 a.m., but according to the court docket, a potential change of plea hearing has been scheduled for 10 a.m. that day. More than a dozen subpoe- nas had been filed for the trial according to the clerk of court’s website. Two out of state witnesses have also been secured for the possible trial. Among the witnesses subpoenaed are Sara J. Craig and Ariel R. Smith, both of whom have pleaded guilty to their roles in the crime. Cozart’s attorney Dennis Sipe had filed documents in late June suggesting that Cozart was incompetent to stand trial and entering a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity. At a hearing in the fall, the parties stipulated to the competency evaluation by Dr. Daniel Davis. Prosecutor Colleen Williams made the motion to find Cozart competent to stand trial, something defense attorney Dennis Sipes agreed with. The court then found Cozart competent to stand trial. Aggravated murder is a special felony and carries a sentence ranging from 15 years to life. Tampering with evidence is a felony of the third degree, and aggravated robbery is a felony of the first degree. A third-degree felony carries a possible sentence of three-five years, while a first-degree felony carries a possible sentence of 11 years. Bond for Cozart was set at $1 million as requested by Meigs County Prosecutor Colleen Williams in May. Cozart is currently in the custody of the Meigs County Sheriff awaiting trial. The charges against Cozart are in connection with the stabbing death of Chafin at the Meigs Motel on May 9. According to Meigs County Sheriff Keith Wood, officials with the Meigs County Sheriff’s Office, Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation, and the Meigs County Coroner responded to the Meigs Motel soon after midnight on Thursday, May 9. Upon responding, officers found evidence of an altercation and a homicide. Also charged in the case were Ariel R. Smith and Sara J. Craig. Both have entered guilty pleas to the charges against them. Smith, 23, of Racine, entered a guilty plea in November to the amended charge of complicity to aggravated assault, a felony of the fourth degree, and tampering with evidence, a felony of the third degree. Smith was originally indicted on complicity to felonious assault, a felony of the second degree and tampering with evidence. See CASE | 3 Devastating fire claims second victim Memorial arrangements announced by family By Beth Sergent bsergent@civitasmedia.com Modern Woodman Band Bands – yesterday and today By Charlene Hoeflich choeflich@civitasmedia.com MEIGS COUNTY — Just as time marches on so do bands. In the late 1800’s the Modern Woodmen of America (MWA) 6335 of Middleport had a uniformed band which marched in parades and performed for events. Today the Riverbend Arts Council of Middleport sponsors the Meigs Community Band directed by Tony Dingess which presents concerts and entertains at special community events. The two community bands are not only more than a century apart in time but in the music they play and in composition – all men wearing the same uniform and cap. Jeannie Bowen, a member of the Meigs Community Band, was given the MWA photo by former news woman Beulah Jones many years ago. Coming across it recently while cleaning out some drawers, led her to do some research online. She found that all over the country the fraternal order sponsored bands as a part of their civic giving. Today members of the Meigs Community Band practice and perform on their own time for the same reason. Meigs Community Band Charlene Hoeflich | file photo Middleport jail report shows financial success By Charlene Hoeflich choeflich@civitasmedia.com MIDDLEPORT – “Overall a very good year for the jail.” That was the report of Mony Wood, Middleport jail administrator, to Middleport Village Council members at its recent meeting. Wood reported to Council that in 2013, the first full year of the jail operation, a total of 696 inmates were booked with 107 from Middleport and 389 from other agencies in Meigs, Gallia, Jackson, Athens and Vinton Counties which came in under a payment contract. He also noted that there were “no major incidents” occurring in the jail during the year. As was planned when the move was made from the old village hall on Race Street to the renovated building on Pearl Street, the money needed to make payments on the renovation loan would come from funds generated by the jail operation. Since the jail opened, village records show that the operation has generated more than enough money to make the payments on the renovation loan. By September 2012 when the first payment was due on the work done to convert the vacant elementary school building into Middleport Village Hall, the jail had generated $74,790. The amount of that first payment on the loan due in September 2012 was $52,525. Since the interest on the loan gradually decreases over the years, the payment figure decreases as well. The second payment made in March 2013 was $51,899.38 and the third payment made in September 2013 was $51,273.75. The next payment which will be due in March 2014 will be $50,648.13. There will continue to be a decrease in each payment of $625.62 until the loan is paid off in 2032. In October 2013 Wood’s report showed that proceeds were averaging about $31,500 per month, more than adequate to pay for the operation of the jail and to make the two annual payments on the renovation loan. For 2014 several new contracts have been signed for use of the Middleport jail for housing prisoners, Wood reported to Council. Recently signed contracts for housing prisoners include Ohio University, sheriffs departments in Jackson, Athens, Lawrence and Pike Counties, and police departments in Racine, Gallipolis, Jackson, McArthur, Syracuse, Rio Grande, Oak Hill, Pomeroy, Rutland, Athens, and Wellston. POINT PLEASANT — A second person has died as a result of injuries sustained in Saturday’s devastating house fire in Point Pleasant. Tiffany Grant, 26, Point Pleasant, died Monday evening at Cabell Huntington Hospital, according to a spokesperson from her family. Grant was the adult daughter of Bill and LaTanya Smith. The Smith’s lost another child, Braxton, 11, over the weekend after he was also injured in the fire. Another 14-year old son was critically injured and remains hospitalized in a hospital in Cincinnati, Ohio. Late Tuesday evening, the family announced it would have a celebration of life for both Tiffany and Braxton on Saturday, Jan. 25 at 2 p.m., at the Point Pleasant High School Auditorium.

(AP) — State police are investigating child abuse allegations at a nonprofit Romney center that serves children and adults with developmental disabilities. The state Department of Health and Human Resources removed 24 children from the Potomac Center last week after upper management reported the allegations, media outlets reported. The children, who lived in three residences on the center’s campus, were taken to other facilities across the state. “Children in the department’s care were subjected to inhumane and degrading treatment by some employees of the Potomac Center Inc. facility,” DHHR Secretary Karen Bowling said in a news release. “DHHR took immediate action to remove the Cyclist: Driver didn’t see me stuck in windshield MANITOWOC, Wis. (AP) — A Wisconsin man who became lodged in the windshield of a car that struck him said he turned to the driver and said, “Hello, I’m the guy you hit on the bicycle.” The driver did not respond, but continued on, running a stop sign and hitting another vehicle before he arrived home, the cyclist, Steven Gove, told one media outlet about the Saturday incident. The man finally noticed Gove when he stopped the car outside his home. “He looked at me and said ‘Who are you? What are you doing in the car?’” Gove said. “He started freaking out: ‘I’m going to jail, I’m going to jail.’” The man then locked the car doors and went into his home. Gove, whose body had gone most of the way through the windshield, then pulled his knees and feet into the car. “I righted myself and got out,” he said. “I unlocked the passenger’s side door and started walking down the street.” A witness had called police, who found Gove as he was walking and took him to a hospital. Doctors removed glass from Gove’s eyes and treated him for other cuts to the head and leg. The driver, a 20-year-old Manitowoc man, was found at the home and treated at a hospital for a serious cut to the hand. He hadn’t been formally charged as of Tuesday morning, but he was facing several preliminary charges, including suspicion of drunken driving, suspicion of hit-and-run causing injury and suspicion of failing to render aid. Gove, a 56-year-old newspaper carrier, was shocked that the driver didn’t see him on his threewheeled delivery bike. “I was wearing my blue overcoat with my neon reflective vest,” said Gove. “I had my front and rear flashers on. I have no idea why he didn’t see me.” A 50-year-old Green Bay man died in a similar accident in 2007. Steven Warrichaiet was sentenced to 15 years in prison for hitting Tyrone Ware, driving home with Ware’s body lodged in the windshield and leaving Ware in the garage while Warrichaiet went inside and fell asleep on the couch. An autopsy showed Ware died instantly of spinal injuries. endangered children from the facility.” Details of the alleged abuse haven’t been released. “I am outraged and deeply saddened by the exploitation of children and lack of compassion by some employees at this facility,” Bowling said. “Let me reiterate, in the strongest terms, my condemnation of this behavior.” The Potomac Center will cooperate with the investigation and support prosecution of any employees who mistreated children entrusted to its care, said Rick Harshbarger, who has served as the center’s CEO since it was established in 1980. “No one cares more for the children we serve than I do,” Harshbarger said in a statement. “I am appalled and saddened that the actions of a very few have af- fected so many.” He said the Potomac Center remains open and will work with the DHHR to reopen the residences where the children lived. The private center provides residential assistance and support to children and adults with developmental disabilities, along with respite for caregivers. It also manages a foster care program in Romney, Moorefield and Elkins. Cause of deadly Omaha plant explosion unknown OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — After a blast caused much of an Omaha manufacturing plant to collapse, some workers found themselves buried in debris and others scrambled for their lives. Two of the 38 workers who were at the International Nutrition plant on Monday morning died and 10 were hospitalized with significant injuries, authorities said. A firefighter was also sent to the hospital with an injured hand. An urban recovery team of firefighters resumed efforts Tuesday morning to recover the body of one of the workers killed. Officials have not released that victim’s name. The body of Keith Everett, 53, was pulled from the debris Monday afternoon. Jamar White said he had a narrow escape. He was outside the plant watching trucks unload when he heard a loud crack and looked up to see the back wall of the building collapsing. “I ran at least 150 feet,” White said. “I ran far enough to make sure nothing else would keep falling.” Key structural supports failed after the blast, and the second and third floors of the plant collapsed on top of the first floor. The blast knocked out the lights in the building and sent workers fleeing for safety. Authorities don’t know what caused the blast. Omaha Interim Fire Chief Bernie Kanger said at a news conference Monday night that he couldn’t say for sure there was an explosion, though workers and other witnesses described hearing a blast. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration will investigate the cause of the accident; Kanger said that could take weeks. He noted there were no hazardous chemicals at the International Nutrition plant, which makes nutritional products that are added to livestock and poultry feed. Messages left Tuesday at local and regional OSHA offices seeking information on the investigation were not immediately returned. Online records show the federal agency fined International Nutrition more than $13,000 after a 45-year-old worker was killed in 2002 when he fell into a moving mixer he was cleaning. On Monday, firefighters were able to rescue five men initially, including one who was cut from the debris, Kanger said. Search-and-rescue experts worked into Monday evening to stabilize the building and remove Everett’s body. A combination of strong winds, cold temperatures and the dangerous rubble forced rescuers to suspend operations before the second victim could be recovered, Kanger said. “We’ve got tens of thousands of pounds of concrete, reinforced concrete and steel,” Kanger said, noting the search effort and investigation will resume Tuesday morning. “This is a very significant rescue operation.” White’s wife, Sarah White, said she was at home with her four children when her husband called after the explosion. “I could hear the panic in his voice,” she said. She spent the morning waiting with other workers’ families for updates on their loved ones “All of the people who are hurt are people he works with every day,” she said. “I know that? he’s OK, but it’s still emotional because I know I could be one of those families crying.” Worker Nate Lewis said he was on the first floor when he heard the explosion. The building went dark, so the 21-year-old used light from his cellphone to make his way across the production floor and outside. “I was a production line worker, although I don’t know if I want to be that anymore,” said Lewis, who’s been at the plant for about four months. Ohio dog-rescue groups not registering as required AKRON, Ohio (AP) — Ohio officials say dog-rescue operations that haven’t registered with the state under new regulations could face fines. Ohio is believed to have hundreds of dog-rescue operations, but only a fraction has registered, one newspaper reported. The registration requirement was among regulations put into effect starting this year to crack down on puppy mills. Martha Leary of StarMar Rescue in Wooster helped write the law and said the state has sent res- cue organizations letters about compliance. “Some organizations are scared of possible inspection, and rightfully so, and some honestly feel that the law doesn’t pertain to them,” she told the newspaper. Ohio Department of Agriculture spokeswoman Erica Hawkins said a lag in compliance isn’t uncommon when such regulation starts from scratch. High-volume dog breeders in the state — anyone who sells more than 60 dogs or has nine or more litters in a calendar year — were required to register by Jan. 1. Generally, the law prohibits a person from acting as a dog retail- er in Ohio without a state license. The law describes a rescue as one that cannot operate for profit, sell dogs for a profit, breed dogs or purchase more than nine dogs in a calendar year unless they come from a shelter, animal warden, humane society or another animal rescue. Obama to meet with Pope Francis WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama will meet with Pope Francis at the Vatican as part of a European trip scheduled for March. The White House says Obama “looks forward to discussing with Pope Francis their shared commitment to fighting poverty and growing inequal- ity” during their March 27 meeting. Obama also plans to meet in Rome with Italian President Giorgio Napolitano and Prime Minister Enrico Letta. Obama’s trip begins March 24-25 in The Hague, Netherlands, where he will participate in a nuclear security summit hosted by the Dutch government and meet with Dutch leaders. On March 26, Obama will travel to Brussels for an U.S.-European Union summit with the presidents of the European Council and the European Commission, as well as meetings with Belgian leaders and NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen.

Chris Christie sought to turn back the clock as he was sworn into a second term Tuesday, saying voters gave him a mandate in November to “stay the course” and put aside partisan differences, even as Democrats ramped up an investigation into whether his administration abused its power. Christie, considered a likely Republican presidential candidate in 2016, was inaugurated amid a snowstorm that forced him to cancel an evening celebration on Ellis Island, and then gave an 18-minute address that dwelled on his 22-point election victory in the fall. He did not mention the investigations that have already led to the firing or departure of four top aides or associates. The people making up a broad coalition that returned him to office, he said, “have demanded that we stay the course they have helped set.” “It was the largest and loudest voice of affirmation that the people of our state have given to any direction in three decades,” Christie said, noting priorities including the economy, education and improving access to jobs for recovering drug addicts. “We have no moral option but to heed the voice of the voters, and that is exactly what I intend to do.” His speech came less than an hour after Democratic lawmakers announced they were consolidating twin probes into allegations that aides engineered traffic jams in September in the community of Fort Lee as political retribution, apparently against the town’s mayor for not endorsing his re-election bid. Assembly Speaker Vincent Prieto, who was on the podium during the inaugural address, said the merger of Assembly and Senate committees was the “optimal approach to ensuring the people of New Jersey get the answers they need to these questions about the abuse of government power.” Lawmakers have not decided whether the probe will also be extended to allegations raised over the weekend by Hoboken Mayor Dawn Zimmer. The Democratic mayor said Christie’s underlings tied the delivery of Superstorm Sandy aid to the low-lying city of 50,000 across from Manhattan to support for a prime real estate project. Zimmer said she was told by Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno that the ultimatum came directly from Christie. Guadagno, who was also sworn in Tuesday to a second term, has strongly denied those claims and described them as “false” and “illogical.” Zimmer met with investigators from the U.S. attorney’s office for several hours Sunday and gave them journal entries she said were made at the time of the conversation at a supermarket opening in May. She also has offered to take a lie-detector test or testify under oath. The U.S. attorney’s office is also looking into the traffic jams, which happened over a few days when lanes leading to the busy George Washington Bridge to New York City were closed. Christie has apologized, denied any involvement with or knowledge of the plot, fired a deputy chief of staff at the center of the controversy, and banished one of his top campaign advisers. Two officials Christie had a role in getting hired to the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which runs the bridge, resigned. David Samson, a former state attorney general who is chairman of the Port Authority, was at the inauguration. His law firm was involved in the development project that Zimmer said administration officials wanted her to support. Christie has built a national following as a blunt-talking and often funny politician who has striven to show that he could find common ground with Democrats on some key issues, including overhauling the state’s pub- The Daily Sentinel Reader Services Correction Policy Our main concern in all stories is to be accurate.

Christie’s leadership after Sandy devastated parts of the state in October 2012 also helped strengthen his standing as a potential presidential candidate. He worked with President Barack Obama and took on Republican members of Congress who were reluctant to approve aid for storm victims, receiving high marks from his constituents and plentiful national attention, along with criticism from some conservatives who blamed him for being too cozy with Democrats. Christie used his speech, as he often does, to bash Washington. “We cannot fall victim to the attitude of Washington, D.C. The attitude that says I am always right and you are always wrong,” he said. “The attitude that puts everyone into a box they are not permitted to leave.” After his speech, Christie got a hug from former Democratic Gov. Jim McGreevey, another New Jersey governor once mired in scandal. A former male aide’s allegations of sexual harassment led McGreevey to resign in 2004 after coming out of the closet and saying he had had an extramarital affair with a man. Christie attended a prayer breakfast at Newark’s New Hope Baptist Church before heading to Trenton for the official ceremony. Christie’s inaugural gala had been planned for Ellis Island, once a gateway for millions of immigrants and a symbolic location designed to showcase ideals of inclusiveness and his ability to appeal to a broad swath of voters. The hall set to host the event is actually in New York, though the Supreme Court ruled in 1998 that most of the island is in New Jersey. The campaign directed that food prepared for the $500-a-person gala be donated to food pantries in the Jersey City area as several inches of snow fell on the state. Proceeds from inaugural tickets were also used to support three charities. By David Crary and John Hanna AP Writers TOPEKA, Kan. — Opponents who have chipped away at abortion with state-level restrictions are facing a dilemma in some of the places where they have been most successful: Do they continue with that approach or seek more dramatic policies that risk court rulings that could undo previous gains? For the last several decades, anti-abortion groups have focused on putting relatively small limits on the procedure state by state, especially in conservative places with Republican-dominated legislatures. Those efforts intensified in 2011 after the GOP made major election gains in state capitols across the country. But as groups on both sides of the debate mark Wednesday’s anniversary of the 1973 Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion, anti-abortion majorities in the GOP-controlled Kansas Legislature and elsewhere are under pressure to take bigger, broader steps. “That debate is nationwide right now,” said Jennifer Mason, communications director for Personhood USA, a Colorado-based group advocating state-level constitutional bans. “Many of my peers are frustrated with the past 40 years of an incremental approach.” Kansas was once an epicenter in the abortion debate, with protesters often targeting Dr. George Tiller, who performed late-term abortions at his Wichita clinic. He was gunned down in 2009 by an anti-abortion extremist now serving life in prison. Kansas lawmakers have proposed more sweeping new measures that would ban most abortions as soon as a fetal heartbeat can be detected or declare that all persons have “inalienable rights” from the moment of conception. But influential anti-abortion leaders and veteran lawmakers are wary of those bills, fearing they could provoke damaging rulings from the Supreme Court or the state’s own courts. In their quest to raise money and build support, both sides have highlighted the successes that anti-abortion forces have achieved in the past three years. Arkansas and North Dakota enacted fetal-heartbeat laws last year. North Dakota banned some procedures as early as the sixth week of pregnancy with a law that has been blocked by a federal judge. Other bills passed in 2013 restricted women’s access to abortion medication, restricted insurance coverage for abortion and imposed new requirements on abortion clinics and providers. A new law in Texas forced the closure of several clinics by requiring doctors who perform abortions to have admitting privileges at a nearby hospital. It is being appealed. Kansas has tightened restrictions on lateterm abortions, banned sex-selection procedures, strengthened a law requiring doctors to obtain parental consent before performing a minor’s abortion and barred abortion providers from providing materials or instructors for public schools’ sexuality courses. Mary Kay Culp, executive director of Kansans for Life, compares the incremental approach favored by her group to a football Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution Letters to the Editor Letters to the editor should be limited to 300 words.

Letters should be in good taste, addressing issues, not personalities. “Thank You” letters will not be accepted for publication. team relying on a grind-it-out running game to score points. “If you shoot that football into the end zone, over everybody’s heads, things can happen,” Culp said. Abortion-rights supporters say either system — tightening restrictions little by little or pushing for broader bans even early in pregnancies — is harmful. “Both strategies distract us, of course, from serving women,” said Julie Burkhart, founder of the abortion-rights group Trust Women, who now operates a new clinic in Tiller’s former building. Whatever strategy is adopted may also depend on the views and clout of veteran anti-abortion leaders. In North Dakota, a legislative caucus that vetted anti-abortion bills lost its influence over time, giving individual lawmakers more latitude. In Kansas, Culp’s group remains the most influential one on the anti-abortion side at the Statehouse. “Where do you go next? That’s the discussion, and that discussion may not be resolved in six months, a year or two years,” said state Rep. Steve Brunk, a Wichita Republican and chairman of the Kansas House committee that handles abortion measures. “We want to move together.” Congress also could set national policy, but it’s so bitterly divided between the Democratic-led Senate and the GOP-controlled House that abortion measures have had little chance of passage. House Republicans are trying nonetheless, with the Judiciary Committee approving a bill earlier this month aimed at permanently prohibiting taxpayer dollars from being used to pay for abortions. Abortion-rights advocates have been pushing back. California expanded abortion access last year with a measure that allowed nurse practitioners, certified nurse midwives and physician assistants to perform a type of early abortion. In Texas, the state senator who staged a marathon filibuster against the new law there, Wendy Davis, is now the Democratic candidate for governor in Texas, and abortion is likely to be a key campaign issue. Burkhart said that she would rather have a “straight-up conversation” over banning most or all abortions. Less dramatic proposals, though harmful, do not inspire as much outrage, she said. Abortion opponents “want to come at us from all these different angles in hopes people won’t see it coming,” she said. Both sides are trying to read the Supreme Court, particularly Justice Anthony Kennedy, who is considered the swing vote on abortion issues. Back in Kansas, Republican Gov. Sam Brownback recently compared the protests outside Tiller’s clinic to efforts by abolitionists to end slavery before the Civil War. But even with the governor’s support, Kansas abortion opponents face a more complicated situation at the state Supreme Court, where five of seven justices were appointed by Democratic governors who supported abortion rights. “You have to take the public with you,” Culp said. “Or you risk a backlash that puts you in a worse position than when you started.” The Daily Sentinel Ohio Valley Newspapers 111 Court Street Pomeroy, Ohio Phone (740) 992-2156 Fax (740) 992-2157 www.mydailysentinel.com Beth Sergent Interim Editor bsergent@civitasmedia.com �Wednesday, January 22, 2014 Death Notices GRANT POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — Tiffany Grant, age 26, of Point Pleasant, W.Va., was called home to be with her Lord on Monday evening January 20, 2014 while being cared for at Cabell-Huntington Hospital in Huntington, W.Va.

Visitation will be held at Amish family: Forced chemo order violates rights Please recycle this paper TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — A judge’s decision appointing a guardian to make medical decisions for an Amish girl after her parents stopped her chemotherapy violated their constitutional rights and could affect the rights of other parents to make their own medical choices, the family’s attorney said in a court filing. The lawyer for the family of the girl, Sarah Hershberger, wants a state appeals court to overturn the order assigning the guardian. Sarah and her parents have been in hiding to avoid resuming chemotherapy since the guardian was appointed in October. They won’t return to their farm in northeastern Ohio until the guardian is removed, their attorney has said. The guardian, Maria Schimer, an attorney who’s also a registered nurse, also no longer wants to force 11-year-old Sarah to undergo chemotherapy for her leukemia because she can’t contact the girl or her parents. But she also said that an Ohio appeals court should not grant the Hershberger family’s request to reverse the ruling that made her the the Crow-Hussell Funeral Home on Sunday, January 26, 2014, from 3 p.m. until 5 p.m. The family has entrusted their care to CrowHussell Funeral Home.

Storm disrupts flights, school day in eastern US PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Thousands of flights were canceled, students got an extra day off from school or were being sent home early, and the federal government closed its offices in the Washington area Tuesday as a winter storm bore down on the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast. The National Weather Service said the storm could bring 8 to 12 inches of snow to Philadelphia and New York City, and more than a foot in Boston. Bitterly cold air with wind chills as low as 10 degrees below zero was forecast. It warned of heavy winds and hazardous driving conditions as the storm moved up the East Coast. With federal workers told to stay home, Tom Ripley, who works at a Washington hardware store, said his morning commute was cut in half because “there was almost no one on the road.” He said the store was jammed Monday as customers stocked up on ice melt and shovels. “Nobody prepares because we never get any snow, so the slightest chance of it, everybody freaks out,” Ripley said. Nearly 2,200 flights were canceled and thousands more delayed Tuesday, with airports from Washington to Boston affected, according to flight-tracking site Flightaware.com. An additional 450 flights for Wednesday were already canceled. Schools in Pennsylvania, The Daily Sentinel s Page 5 www.mydailysentinel.com New Jersey, Connecticut, Virginia, West Virginia and Kentucky stayed closed for an extra day after the Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday, or planned to send students home early. Some parents kept their kids home even if their schools were open, unwilling to put them on slippery roads. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie was forced to modify his schedule of inaugural events — canceling an evening party on Ellis Island — because there was fear snow would make travel dangerous. Both chambers of Delaware’s General Assembly canceled sessions as the storm approached. Pennsylvania authorities reduced speeds on interstates and other major roads. girl’s guardian because the family didn’t raise the issue of their constitutional rights being violated in the trial court. The lawyer for Sarah’s family disagreed, responding in a filing on Friday with the Ninth District Court of Appeals in Akron that “fundamental and constitutional rights that implicate matters of great public importance and constitutional significance cannot be forfeited.” Allowing the guardian to overrule the parents “affects the parental rights and health care freedom of all Ohio parents,” wrote Maurice Thompson, who leads the libertarian 1851 Center for Constitutional Law in Ohio. “Any parent could have significant decisions second-guessed, any parent could lose the right to choose the doctor, hospital and course of medical treatment of their choice,” the family’s attorney said. The Hershbergers decided this past summer to halt the cancer treatments because they feared the chemotherapy could end up killing the girl. Doctors at Akron Children’s Hospital believe Sarah’s leukemia is treatable, but they said in August that she will die within a year without chemotherapy. The Hershbergers shun many facets of modern life and are deeply religious. They have said they stopped chemotherapy not for religious reasons but because it was making Sarah too sick. Instead, they decided to use natural medicines, such as herbs and vitamins. The hospital went to court to force the family to continue chemotherapy. Schimer was given the power to make medical decisions for Sarah after an appeals court ruling in October said the beliefs and convictions of the girl’s parents can’t outweigh the rights of the state to protect the child. But Schimer has asked a Medina County court to let her drop her attempt to force Sarah to resume chemotherapy because it became impossible to make medical decisions for Sarah after the family fled their home near the village of Spencer, about 35 miles southwest of Cleveland.

The Meigs girls basketball team sank five free throws in the final 25 seconds of Monday night’s Lady Rebel Holiday Consolation game to seal the 47-41 victory over Ohio Valley Christian. The Lady Marauders led by a narrow 15-14 margin after the first quarter and pushed the lead to 24-21 at halftime. Both teams marked nine points in the third quarter and Meigs led 33-30 headed into the finale. Meigs scored the first seven points of the fourth quarter but the Lady Defenders answered with an 11-to-2 run. Ahead by one point Meigs hit 5-of-6 free throw, including four straight by Haiden English, to cap off the 47-41 triumph. The Maroon and Gold were paced by Morgan Russell with 14 points, followed by Kelsey Hudson and Haiden English with nine apiece.

Lady Raiders fall to Vinton County, 54-42 By Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com BIDWELL, Ohio — The hole ended up being too deep, but the Lady Raiders kept climbing nonetheless. The River Valley girls basketball team trailed by 20 points midway through the third quarter, then battled back to within two possessions with five minutes left in regulation before ultimately dropping a 54-42 decision to visiting Vinton County in a non-conference matchup in Gallia County. The host Lady Raiders (6-9) jumped out to early leads of 2-0 and 5-3 a little over a minute into regulation, but the Lady Vikings countered with eight consecutive points to secure a permanent lead in the contest. VCHS (11-5) closed the opening eight minutes of play with a 13-9 advantage. Both teams traded buckets to start the second canto, then the guests made an 11-0 charge over the next three minutes to claim a sizable 26-11 lead with 4:05 remaining until the break. RVHS closed the final 3:50 of the first half with a small 6-4 run, allowing the hosts to pull to within 30-17 at the intermission. Vinton County opened the third period with a 9-2 spurt, and Michaela Puckett capped that run with a basket at the 4:45 mark — giving the guests their largest lead of the night at 39-19. The Silver and Black, however, went into survival mode — and showed some true grit in the process. RVHS held the Lady Vikings scoreless the rest of the canto while going on a 9-0 run to whittle the deficit down to 39-28 headed into the finale. The Lady Raiders opened the finale with four consecutive points to close to within seven, but VCHS followed by snapping a 6:42 scoreless drought after Xan Hale netted a short jumper at the 6:03 mark for a 41-32 edge.

South Gallia wins second annual Lady Rebel Holiday Tournament By Alex Hawley ahawley@civitasmedia.com MERCERVILLE, Ohio — Who needs the first quarter anyway. The South Gallia girls basketball didn’t score in the first quarter of the Monday night’s Lady Rebel Holiday Tournament championship game against Gallia Academy. The Lady Rebels marked 46 points over the next three quarters to take the 16-point victory. The Blue Angels (6-9) led 6-0 after the first quarter of play, forcing seven SGHS (10-6) turnovers in the opening stanza. The teams shot a combined 2-of-23 (8.7 percent) in the period. Gallia Academy clung to a 1410 lead with two minutes remaining in the half but the Lady Rebels scored eight unanswered points to take the 18-14 lead into the break. The Blue Angels cut South Gallia’s lead to one point headed into the fourth quarter but the Lady Rebels outscored GAHS 20-to-5 in the finale to seal their second straight SGHS Lady Rebel Holiday Tournament Championship and the 46-30 win. Rachel Johnson led South Gallia with 17 points, followed by Mikayla Poling with 10 and Sara Bailey with nine. Lesley Small hit the Lady Rebels lone trifecta and finished with five points, while Ashley Northup had three and Caitlyn VansCoy added two.

GAHS grapplers place 11th at Hammer & Anvil By Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com MOUNT ORAB, Ohio — It was a difficult weekend, but it wasn’t for a lack of effort. The Gallia Academy wrestling team placed 11th out of 18 teams Saturday at the highly-competitive 2014 Hammer and Anvil Invitational held on the campus of Western Brown High School in Brown County. The Blue Devils had six grapplers finish in the top-six of their respective weight classes, which also included one individual champion at the event. GAHS finished the event with 132 team points, placing them ahead of Butler (130.5), Simon Ken- ton (128), Western Brown (120), Clinton-Massie (106.5), Goshen (56), New Richmond (37) and Valley View (9). Campbell County (Ky) won the overall team title with 295.5 points, finishing well ahead of runner-up Lebanon and its 232.5 points. Franklin (188), New Lexington (176) and Hamilton (164) rounded out the topfive team placements. GAHS junior Cole Tawney finished the weekend with a perfect 5-0 mark while capturing the individual crown in the 126-pound weight class. Tawney recorded two pinfall wins, two major decisions and a 1-0 decision over Quinn May of Lebanon in the championship match. Jared Steven finished fourth overall with a 2-2 record at 106 pounds, while Griffon McKinniss and John Byus both placed fifth in their respective division. McKinniss went 3-2 overall in the 170-pound weight class, while Byus was 2-2 overall at 220 pounds. Justin Reynolds and Hunter Jacks also came away with sixth-place efforts individually. Reynolds was 3-2 overall at 182 pounds, while Jacks went 2-2 in the 152 division. GAHS also had five grapplers go winless at the event.

Ross Cameron | Contra Costa Times | MCT photo Denver Broncos cornerback Champ Bailey (24) intercepts a pass intended for Oakland Raiders wide receiver Denarius Moore during the second quarter of an NFL football game, Sunday, Nov. 6, 2011 at the O.co Coliseum in Oakland, Calif. The Broncos won, 38-24. Champ Bailey finally reaches first Super Bowl ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Champ Bailey finally gets a chance to live up to his name. The 12-time Pro Bowler is headed to his first Super Bowl in his 15th — and most trying — NFL season, one in which he missed 11 games and parts of two others because of a nagging foot injury. “It hurt not being out there,” Bailey said after Denver topped New England in the AFC championship game, “but here I am. I’m on the field and my team’s still in the running. That’s what it’s all about.” Bailey’s subdued celebration and measured reaction in delirious Denver stood in stark contrast to the scene in Seattle later Sunday night, where Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman stole the spotlight with his game-saving deflection, his taunting of Michael Crabtree and his television rant on the field afterward. The two contrasting styles will draw much attention in the days leading up to the Super Bowl on Feb. 2. Sherman is the 25-year-old trashtalking leader of the league’s best defense, Bailey the 35-year-old sage of a unit that’s been through the ringer this season, but has come on strong over the past month despite injuries that cost them several starters, including Von Miller and Chris Harris Jr. Bailey is one of the league’s top cornerbacks, but he’s clearly on the downslope of his spectacular career that includes the most Pro Bowls by a defensive back in NFL history. Bailey was greeted in the locker room by former teammate John Lynch, who was with him the previ- ous time he’d come this close to the Super Bowl — 2,919 days earlier. One week after sealing a playoff win with a 100-yard interception return to hand Tom Brady his first playoff loss back in 2006, Bailey had another interception in his grasp and the end zone in his sights, but Hines Ward somehow came down with the football instead and Pittsburgh went on to beat Denver 34-17 for the AFC title following the 2005 season. “I said he’d play really big and I think quietly he really did,” Lynch said. “It’s been a tough year. Everyone thinks he’s old, over the hill, but he’s been a great player throughout his whole career and great players, when it matters most, play great.” Bailey had no spectacular plays this time, no pick-6s or takeaways or forced fumbles or sacks, just his usual steady play and calming leadership. He was hardly tested by Brady at all and finished with three tackles. “I thought yesterday was his best performance of the season,” coach John Fox said Monday. Peyton Manning, who knows a little bit about overcoming injuries and long odds to reach the Super Bowl, said he was “certainly happy for Champ, I know a lot of people are.” “There’s a guy — let’s see, Champ’s one year younger than me so he’s in his 15th season — like I said, it’s hard to get to the Super Bowl. It’s hard to win it, but I’m telling you it’s hard to get there,” Manning said. “… I’m glad that he’s back out there on the field. He’s battled through some injuries and has stayed at it and been committed to his rehab.” Bailey started just three games this season, and he finished just one of those, against Jacksonville on Oct. 13. After aggravating his foot injury in his two other starts, he was relegated to slot duty by the time he finally got healthy in mid-December. That changed when Harris got hurt in the Broncos’ playoff win over San Diego and Bailey started Sunday opposite Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, then moved into the slot on passing downs to thwart the heart of the Patriots’ offense. “I knew I’d be back at some point,” Bailey said. “My coaches, teammates, they never gave up on me. They knew I’d be back to 100 percent at some point. Here I am, I’m playing probably my best football of the year — because I haven’t played much. I’m just looking forward to the next one, making sure my body is right for the next game.” And don’t count on him getting caught up in the comparisons at the Super Bowl between him and Sherman, who represents this new breed of cornerback, the bigger, athletic DBs who trash talk as well as any of the receivers they cover. About the only trash-talking that came out of Bailey’s mouth Sunday was when he was asked about how the Broncos shut down the Patriots’ ground game. The Broncos held LeGarrette Blount to 6 yards on five carries a week after scoring four TDs against Indianapolis. “Well,” Bailey said matter-of-factly, “they didn’t play the Broncos last week.” LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — After Nebraska’s previous home game, Terran Petteway stood in front of his bench, hands over his head with a pained look on his face. He wore an expression of pure joy Monday night as the buzzer sounded and the student section rushed the court to celebrate the Cornhuskers’ 68-62 upset of No. 17 Ohio State. It was the Buckeyes’ fourth straight loss after a 15-0 start. Petteway scored seven points in the final 2:22 and had 13 of his 18 in the second half to help the Huskers end a five-game losing streak and give coach Tim Miles his biggest win in two seasons in Lincoln. “The fans are the reason. You couldn’t even hear the whistle at one point,” Petteway said. “The student section was filled 90 minutes before the game. I knew it was going to be a good night.” The finish was much different than the last game at Pinnacle Bank Arena two weeks ago. That night Petteway’s driving layup bounced off the rim on the Huskers’ last possession, and they lost by a point to Michigan. The Huskers (9-8, 1-5 Big Ten) are 8-1 at their new home. “I swear I’ve never stood in this building and thought we were going to lose a game so far,” Miles said. The Buckeyes (15-4, 2-4) beat Nebraska by 31 points on Jan. 4 in Columbus and haven’t won since. The four-game losing streak is their longest since 2007-08. “It’s like there’s this black cloud over us,” said point guard Aaron Craft, who committed four turnovers and has 19 in the last four games. “We have to find a way to get it off.” Shavon Shields scored 18 points and had nine rebounds to break out of a sophomore slump. Deverell Biggs added 11 points for the Huskers. The Huskers survived after squandering a 14-point first-half lead and won against a ranked opponent for the first time in 16 games. They used a 16-5 run late in the second half to regain control and made 13 of their last 16 free throws to hold off the Buckeyes. Craft scored 12 points, LaQuinton Ross added 11 and Lenzelle Smith Jr. had 10 for the Buckeyes. “When something doesn’t go well, we’re not able to answer the call,” Ohio State coach Thad Matta said. “We don’t have the mental toughness to make the next play. We’re clinging on the mistakes. We’ve got to play forward.” Nebraska overcame 17 turnovers — eight by Petteway — and a couple of lulls to beat a Top 25 opponent for the first time January 2012. The Huskers committed turnovers on seven of their first nine possessions of the second half and went through a 6-minute scoring drought in the middle of the half before they closed strong. Ross’ finger roll gave Ohio State its last lead at 46-45. The Huskers took the lead for good when Biggs stole the ball from Craft and went in for a layup with 4:29 to play. David Rivers’ two free throws made it a 10-point game, and the Buckeyes couldn’t threaten again because of Nebraska’s strong free throw shooting at the end. “I was happy for our guys to be a part of it,” Miles said. “There’s been a lot of hard work. There’s been a lot of frustration. It’s the second year, and there’s not necessarily going to be incremental improvement. You can’t guarantee that. There are so many newcomers and we’re relatively young. We’re going to try to win as many games as we can.” Nebraska led 34-25 after outscoring the Buckeyes 16-6 over the last 7:24 of the first half. Ohio State went 6 ½ minutes without a field goal after Amedeo Della Valle’s 3-pointer gave his team a 19-18 lead. Shields scored seven points during the spurt, and Leslee Smith finished it when he swiped the ball from Amir Williams at midcourt and went in for a layup. Ohio State got back into the game by outscoring the Huskers 18-2 over halftime, tying it and taking a 38-36 lead on layups by Craft. “We’re not the same team that won 15 in a row,” Craft said. “We have to go back and find that.” AP Sports Briefs Former Lions assistant Burke to Bengals CINCINNATI (AP) — The Cincinnati Bengals have hired Matt Burke as linebackers coach, the position he held the last five seasons with the Detroit Lions. Burke succeeds Paul Guenther, who was just promoted to defensive coordinator. The 37-year-old Burke also coached at Tennessee, and has 10 years of NFL coaching experience. He is a Hudson, Mass., native who played for Dartmouth. Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis has been reshaping his staff after defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer became head coach at Minnesota and offensive coordinator Jay Gruden took the Washington Redskins’ head coaching job. The Lions fired head coach Jim Schwartz and replaced him with Jim Caldwell. The Lions on Friday named former Tampa Bay defensive coordinator Bill Sheridan their new linebackers coach. Opera star to sing national anthem at Super Bowl NEW YORK (AP) — The Super Bowl will have a touch of the classical this year: Opera star Renee Fleming will sing the national anthem. The four-time Grammy winner will perform before the Denver Broncos and the Seattle Seahawks play at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., on Feb 2. Fleming is the first opera star to sing the national anthem at the Super Bowl. In recent years, it has been performed mainly by a mix of pop and country stars. Known as “The People’s Diva,” the soprano is closely identified with the New York City region, having spent years singing on iconic stages such as Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall. Last year, she received the National Medal of Arts, the highest honor the government gives to artists. Fleming, who lives in New York City, sang the national anthem before Game 2 of the 2003 World Series at Yankee Stadium. Browns safety T.J. Ward going to Pro Bowl CLEVELAND (AP) — Browns safety T.J. Ward has been added to the Pro Bowl roster, giving Cleveland six players at this year’s game. Ward was selected as an alternate and will replace Steelers safety Troy Polamalu, who is unable to participate because of an injury. Ward had a solid fourth pro season and is eligible for free agency in March. He started all 16 games and finished with a career-high 129 tackles. He recorded 15 tackles for loss and had two interceptions, returning one for a touchdown in a win over Buffalo. He also returned a fumble for a TD against Chicago. Ward has said he would like to re-sign with the Browns, who are still searching for a coach after firing Rob Chudzinski. Ward joins tight end Jordan Cameron, wide receiver Josh Gordon, cornerback Joe Haden, center Alex Mack and tackle Joe Thomas in Honolulu for Sunday’s game. Cardinals sign P Zastudil to 2-year deal TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — The Arizona Cardinals have signed punter Dave Zastudil to a two-year contract. Terms of the deal were not released. Zastudil, who joined the Cardinals in 2011, is coming off the two best seasons of his career. In 2013, he averaged 45.7 yards per kick and tied Kansas City’s Dustin Colquitt for the NFL lead with 35 punts inside the 20-yard line. He set an NFL record with 46 punts inside the 20 in 2012 and had a 46.5-yard average. Zastudil’s career average of 45.8 is the highest in Cardinals history. A fourth-round pick by Baltimore out of Ohio University, Zastudil has averaged 43.7 yards per kick during a 12-year NFL career. AP Source: Broncos’ Gase tells Browns he’s out CLEVELAND (AP) — Adam Gase has told the Browns not to wait for him. Denver’s offensive coordinator removed his name from consideration for Cleveland’s head coaching job on Tuesday, a person familiar with the Browns’ search told the Associated Press. Gase called Browns owner Jimmy Haslam and informed he was withdrawing his name and would not interview after the Super Bowl, said the person who spoke on condition of anonymity because the team is not commenting during its search. The 35-year-old Gase, who will lead the Broncos’ high-powered offense against Seattle, was the first candidate contacted by the Browns. Gase declined an initial interview request because he wanted to concentrate on the playoffs, and the Browns would have had to wait until after Feb. 2 to speak with him. Gase was believed to be the Browns’ top target in their quest to replace Rob Chudzinski, fired after one season in Cleveland. Last week, Haslam said the team is “prepared to wait as long as necessary” to hire a coach, and now the Browns will move ahead without Gase, who enjoys his role with the Broncos and may not be ready for a head coaching gig. The Browns have interviewed at least eight known candidates to become their seventh full-time coach since 1999, and the team has set up second interviews with Seattle defensive coordinator Dan Quinn and Buffalo defensive coordinator Mike Pettine, the source said. Quinn, who has presided over the NFL’s top-rated defense this season, met with the Browns on Jan. 1 and reportedly impressed Haslam and CEO Joe Banner. Pettine had his first interview with the club on Jan. 16. Per NFL rules, the Browns can conduct a second interview with Quinn by Jan. 26, but are not permitted to offer him a job until after the Super Bowl. Pettine can meet again with the team at any time. Gase drew the Browns’ attention and soared up their wish list of candidates helping quarterback Peyton Manning shatter several league records this season. Also, Haslam received a glowing recommendation on Gase from Manning, who has a long-standing relationship with the Haslam family because of their Tennessee ties. Gase, too, fit the outline — young, offensive-minded — of the type of coach Banner wanted to bring to the Browns, who went 4-12 under Chudzinski and have lost at least 11 games in each of the past six seasons. Gase is the second high-profile coach to remove his name from consideration. New England offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels also told the Browns he was not interested in pursuing their opening. The Browns have also interviewed former Tennessee coach Mike Munchak and Dallas special teams coordinator Rich Bisaccia, who could both be brought back for second meetings. �Page 8 s The Daily Sentinel LEGALS Sheriffs Sale of Real Estate The State of Ohio, Meigs County JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association Plaintiff vs.No.13-CV-053 Menifee Ed Blevins, et al.Defendant In pursuance of an Order of Sale in the above entitled action, I will offer for sale at public auction, in the second floor lobby of the Courthouse in the above named county, on Friday,the 31st day of January, 2014 at 10:00AM the following described real estate, situate in the County of Meigs and State of Ohio, and Township of Racine,to wit:Situated in Letart Township, Meigs County, State of Ohio and being in 100 acre Lots 218 and 219, Town 1 North, Range 11 West of the Ohio Company's Purchase and being described as follows: Beginning at a point in the centerline of State Route 338, said point being north 5 deg. 06' 51" east 135.86 feet from the centerline intersection of SR 338 and the south line of Lot 218; thence south 90 deg. 00' 00" east 229.79 feet to a point on the west line of Pfaff & Smith, Vol. 157 page 398 of Meigs County Deed Records, passing iron rods at 50 feet and 179.79 feet for reference; thence south 3 deg. 35' 50" west 142.60 feet along the Ohio River and the Pfaff & Smith Parcel to a point on the south line of said Lot 218; thence north 87 deg. 24' 38" west 241.59 feet along a fence line on the south line of said Lot 218 to a point on the west side of SR 338, passing iron rods at 50 feet and 191.59 feet for reference; thence south 11 deg. 25' 03" west 358.76 feet along the west side of SR 338 to a point; thence north 90 deg. 00' 00" west 132 feet to an iron rod at the base of a cliff, passing an iron rod at 20 feet; thence north 6 deg. 06' 51" east 349.97 feet to a point at the base of a cliff on the south line of 100 acre lot 218; thence north 21 deg. 57' 16" east 145.66 feet to an iron rod at the base of a cliff; thence south 90 deg. 00' 00" east 131.80 feet to the point of beginning, passing an iron rod at 118 feet for reference, containing 1.186 acres in 100 acre lot 219 and 1.203 acres in 100 acre lot 218 for a total of 2.389 acres, more or less.The bearings in the above description are base on the reference deed volume 286 page 527.

The Raiders had four top-eight finishes and scored 98 points as a team, while the Marauders earned only one top-eight finish and 31 points in the 20-team field. The host Bulldogs won the overall crown with 354 points, while Vinton County (283), Fairfield Union (227), Westerville North (189.5) and Jackson (158) rounded out the top-five team spots. Each local program had an individual runner-up at the event, as Brandon Thompson of MHS finished second to Caleb Price of Chillicothe in 145-pound division. Thompson was the lone Marauder to earn a spot in the top-eight at the competition. The Raiders received a second place effort from Rondal Cornell, whose only loss came to Troy Stalder of Athens in the 160 championship. Tyler Ward was fourth in the 195 weight class, while Anthony Harmon (220) and Jesse Edwards (138) placed seventh and eighth in their respective divisions. Complete results of the 2014 John Deno Wrestling Tournament are available on the web at baumspage.com Marion Local turns things around with lollipops By Rusty Miller The Associated Press Sometimes motivation is round and sweet. After some struggles taking care of the ball in back-to-back losses to New Knoxville and Minster and a come-frombehind win over a onewin Celina team, Maria Stein Marion Local coach Treva Fortkamp looked for something to help her girls get back into the form they had when they started out 11-0. The solution was found at the concession stand. “I bought them all a sucker before the game,” said Fortkamp. “I thought that could stimulate their brain.” The plan worked as the Flyers played well in beating backyard rival St. Henry, 43-40. “I don’t think I’ll go broke buying suckers. I’ll buy ‘em the next game, too,” said Fortkamp. THREE TIMES TWO: Findlay Liberty-Benton has been blessed with some outstanding basketball players. A.J. Granger won an NCAA championship with Michigan State; Aaron Craft is a two-time All-Big Ten selection for Ohio State and his little sister, Cait, may soon be, too; Amanda Hyde, a senior at IUPU-Fort Wayne, is the reigning Summit League Player of the Year and leading the Mastodons in most major categories once again. But none of them were able to accomplish what Lauren Kotey did in a 4731 win over Carey in a matchup of state-ranked teams. A 6-foot-2 junior center, Kotey scored 14 points, grabbed 13 rebounds and blocked 11 shots, the first triple-double in school history to lead the Eagles over the Blue Devils. TRIPLE DANGEROUS: Defiance Ayersville’s Molly Hammersmith had a triple-double with 12 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists in a 72-51 victory over Van Buren, adding five steals and three blocks. The 5-11 sophomore then totaled 19 points, 11 rebounds, six steals, four assists and four blocks in beating Haviland Wayne Trace, 63-59. FAST START: Defiance’s boys led Sherwood Fairview 37-0 before the shutout was broken with 2:15 to go in the second quarter. The Defiance lead was 28-0 after one quarter, 39-2 at half and 57-4 after three quarters 49 against Germantown Valley View and 38 against HCYA (Texas). NEVER TOO LATE: Lima Central Catholic trailed Lima Bath by 17 points going into the fourth quarter Saturday night but went on a 24-3 run to start the final quarter and won 52-50. Bath’s only field goal in the fourth quarter came with one second to play; trailing 58-53 with two minutes left in overtime and its top two scorers and rebounders on the bench after fouling out, Sandusky Perkins scored seven straight points, including Chase Green’s putback as time expired to give the Pirates a stunning win over visiting Huron. In the win, senior Nic Williams set the school scoring mark with 1,300 points; and Zanesville Rosecrans’ Molly Nash hit the go-ahead basket with 5 seconds left and took a charge in the final second to seal a 46-44 win against No. 8 Stow-Munroe Falls Sunday at the West Muskingum Route 40 Classic. A day earlier, Nash assisted on Samantha Swackhammer’s game-winning basket in a 50-47 win in their showdown against Zanesville. NOTE THIS: Delta led Wauseon 20-2 early in the second quarter but the Indians outscored Delta 6726 the rest of the way in handing the Panthers their second loss of the season, 69-46; Shaker Heights Hathaway Brown’s girls have been to seven straight state tournaments with four state titles including Division II last March, but are now 1-16; Norwalk’s 61-47 win at Toledo Whitmer Saturday in a 64-23 victory. BUSY WEEK: Fort Recovery’s Elijah Kahlig hit game-winning shots twice last week in Midwest Athletic Conference games. Kahlig, heading to the University of Findlay where older brother Greg is a top player, started the week with a jumper with 2 seconds left to help the Indians beat Delphos St. John’s, 49-47. Then on Friday he hit another jumper with 0.8 seconds left for a 39-37 win over state-ranked Versailles. Kahlig is averaging 22.8 points per game to lead the MAC. PRODUCTION LINES: Freshman Ethan Linder had a big week for Haviland Wayne Trace, scoring 12 of his 18 points in the second half of a 57-53 victory over Paulding, notching 18 of his 19 points in the second half in a comeback 67-53 win over Defiance Ayersville and then pouring in 37 points in a 73-67 victory at Lima Shawnee; Elida’s Dakota Mathias, a 6-5 guard who has signed with Purdue, had 23 points and 22 rebounds in a 67-48 win over Bowling Green on Saturday night; and in Defiance Tinora’s 94-74 win over Stryker on Saturday night, Tinora’s Derek Drewes scored 34 points and Stryker’s Parker Ruffer hit for 33. RECORD WATCH: Junior guard Luke Kennard became Franklin’s all-time leading scorer last weekend, passing his uncle Todd Kennard. Todd had 1,434 points. Luke entered the weekend with 1,427 points, then scored marked the 56th straight regular season win; longtime Waynesfield-Goshen girls coach Ted Patton resigned Friday and offered no comment; Zanesville Maysville’s girls extended their regular season winning streak to 37 straight games with a 75-46 win against McConnelsville Morgan; and Isaac Fitzgerald was 5 for 5 from behind the 3-point line in the first quarter to lead St. Marys Memorial to a 53-28 win over Rockford Parkway on Saturday. FIRST OF MANY: In a matchup of future Big Ten opponents, Cincinnati Mt. Notre Dame’s Naomi Davenport and Clyde’s Amanda Cahill put on a shooting display at the 10th Classic in the Country Challenge Sunday at Berlin Hiland. Davenport scored 33 points on 15-of-20 shooting and grabbed 10 rebounds in Notre Dame’s 67-61 win over Clyde, snapping the Fliers’ 43-game regular-season winning streak in the process. Meanwhile, Cahill countered with 32 points on 11-of-16 shooting and added eight rebounds and five assists. Davenport’s 33 points tied former two-time Associated Press Ms. Basketball and current Ohio State starter Ameryst Alston for most points in a single game at the Classic, while her 15 field goals is a record. Cahill’s 32 points tied for secondmost points. Davenport, a nationallyranked junior, has verbally committed to Michigan. Cahill, a senior, has signed with Indiana. Meigs From Page 6 Meigs shot 17-of-63 (27 percent) from the field and 12-of-18 (66.7 percent) from the free throw line.
