Paul Reed, president of Farm- ers Bank, said it’s “encouraging” that the Senate voted 67-32 this week to delay FEMA’s scheduled flood insurance rate hikes until the mandated affordability study has been completed and the flood maps have been updated. However, as he pointed out, the delay approved by the Senate is just one step forward. Approval still has to come from the House of Representatives before a delay in the FEMA rate increase legislation can be implemented. Both Varnadoe and Reed are encouraging residents to write to their representatives asking that they approve the bill to delay the FEMA insurance rate increases as passed by the Senate. The economic development director spoke of the passage of the bill by the Senate as offering “some encouragement” for anyone looking to invest in housing and businesses in towns along the river because it begins a process which may delay the tremendous increase in insurance rates, at least for now. He said the changes in FEMA rates have almost stopped real estate activity in Meigs County areas located in the flood zone. Reed said people are hesitant to go into business because FEMA is pricing progress out of the insurance market by the skyhigh rates. He added that it is a “killer of growth” because people can’t afford to pay the high rates. He also noted the new mapping currently under way appears to be expanding the area and moving even more property into a flood zone. Financing of homes and other structures located in what has been defined as a flood zone is contingent upon having the insurance required under the Biggert Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act. The result, in most instances, is a hefty increase in the cost of insurance, making properties less attractive to potential buyers. The current legislation passed by the Senate and now under consideration by the House of Representatives is geared toward delaying changes mandated in the reform plan until further consideration can be given to the consequences.

If someone has a plan for a new business or is ready to take their existing business to the next level, the Revolving Loan Program may be the resource they need to make that plan a reality.” RLF loans fill the ‘gap’ between conventional bank financing, owner equity and the total amount necessary to complete a proposed business project. Eligible activities include: acquiring or improving land and buildings; construction; new machinery or equipment; and working or start-up capital needs. Revolving loans include fixed interest rates and terms of 3-12 years, depending on the collateral used to secure the loan. The program is funded by the Appalachian Regional Commission, The Economic Development Administration and USDA. Because one full-time job equivalent (40 hours per week) must be created or retained for every $25,000 of Revolving Loan financing, these loans focus on creating jobs. To request a brochure to learn more about terms, rates and the business requirements of Revolving Loan Fund programs, contact Tina Meunier at (740) 376-1033.

The purpose of the Southern Local School District Hall of Fame is to recognize Southern Local School District graduates, employees, and major contributors who have distinguished themselves by their individual contributions in scholarship, athletics, career, community service, and or society as a whole. Each year nominations are accepted and reviewed by a selection committee. The Southern Local School District all of Fame Class of 2014 included a student-athlete, a teachercoach and a former teacher-superintendent.

During her junior year the girl’s softball team were district champions. During her senior year the girl’s basketball team were district champions and from this championship year she was awarded Most Valuable Player of the SVAC league and first team allstate. Dr. Weese attended Muskingum College in New Concord, Ohio, for her undergraduate years and then graduated from Indiana University School of Optometry with her Doctor of Optometry Degree in 1990. After college, she returned to Racine, and with the assistance of Racine Home National Bank President, John T. Wolfe, she opened her optometric practice (Racine Optometric Clinic) in November 1991. Through the years, as a business owner, she has continued to support the sports, band, and other extra-curricular programs at Southern local. Weese has been Vice President of the Racine Area Community Organization since 1994. RACO has presented over $151,000 in scholarships to Southern High School graduates from money made at RACO’s yard sales, memorial scholarships, educational scholarships, and car show scholarships Melanie is also currently serving on the Star Mill Park Board, Meigs County Tuberculosis Board, and the Meigs County Board of Develop- mental Disabilities. She is a member of the Racine First Baptist Church and the American and Ohio Optometric Associations. Melanie has had the privilege of helping parent her cousins, Curt and Brad Crouch. Curt is a Southern graduate and has a nursing degree from Mt. Carmel College of Nursing. He is employed at O’Bleness Hospital. Brad is a graduate of Southern and graduated from Ohio University with an IT engineering degree and is employed by Honda in Marysville, OH. Most Importantly, Weese stated, “How thankful I am to God for all the blessings I have had in my life. It is only by God’s grace that I have grown up in such a wonderful community and then given an opportunity to return to my home town, after college, to live and work. I am very fortunate to have had good coaches and wonderful teammates. This resulted in many successful sports seasons throughout my career.” Weese is the daughter of Lillian Weese and the late Don Weese, both graduates of Racine High School. Her sister is Traci Breeding, a 1977 Southern graduate. Her grandfather, Carl Weese, was in the teaching profession for 50 years, retiring in 1975 from Southern local. Weese was joined at the ceremony by her mother, Lillian Weese; cousin, Curt Crouch and his wife, Brittany; and cousin, Brad Crouch and is wife, Jenna. Larry “Little Fooze” Wolfe Larry “Little Fooze” Wolfe was a 1954 graduate of Racine High School. He is the son of the late Hilton Wolfe, Sr. and the Late Ruth Salser Wolfe. He was born in Racine, Ohio, in 1936 and was raised in Racine. Larry was a teacher and friend to many students and is married to wife, Dolly Wolfe. Together they have over 60 years of teaching experience, most of which came in the Southern Local School District — a district where Dolly still substitutes and serves as a day tutor. Wolfe was the principal for many years at the Portland Elementary School, where his teaching staff, students, and parents were a community “family”. Wolfe taught both fifth and sixth grades in one classroom while also serving as principal at the school. Overall, Wolfe taught over 30 years. Wolfe is one of the top ten scorers in Southern basketball history with over 1,000 points, while also enjoying a fantastic baseball career at Racine High School. Known for his crafty left-handed pitching, Wolfe pitched 10 varsity no-hitters, and even after breaking his pitching arm pitched and won a game or two pitching right-handed. His junior and senior years he was voted second and third team All-Ohio, respectively, in boy’s basketball. After graduating from high school, Wolfe was drafted the Major Leagues by the Kansas City Athletics, playing in the Minor leagues at Savannah, Georgia and Welsh, West Virginia. Wolfe enjoyed success in the minors, not only as a pitcher but as a hitter, but found his heart was really helping people and being close to home. He returned for a time to work at the Sugar Run Feed Mill before going to Rio Grande College to seek a degree in education. After two years, he earned a Cadet teaching certificate and began his teaching career at Pomeroy before coming back to Racine, and Syracuse, where he also was a teacher and principal. He was noted for “making it fun” for the students to learn and treated students fairly. He coached reserve and Jr. High basketball, was a varsity baseball coach and a varsity girls basketball coach. He coached biddy league basketball at Syracuse and Racine and was also a Scout Leader and Little League baseball coach. He was 42-2 as Jr. High Girls’ basketball coach at Southern. Larry was a fireman and member of the Racine Emergency squad, while serving on Village Council for 16 years. He was also on the Racine Village Water Board and voted Meigs County Jaycees “Man of the Year”. He was a share-cropper at the Jim Adams Farms, where he employed many students to help them with income for school clothing and other necessities. Additionally, he once had one of the state’s largest arrowhead collections, loved to collect arrowheads and continues his love for Bluegrass Music. He has been described as a “great teacher and community leader.” Besides his service to the Village he was on the entertainment committee, Fall Festival Committee, and helped promote Bluegrass Music in the area. He has two children, son, Kent, a 1982 Southern graduate, and daughter, Laren, a 1984 Southern graduate. Wolfe was accompanied at the ceremony by wife, Dolly; children, Kent and Laren; grandchildren, Wes and Whitney; and greatgranddaughter, Nevaeh. Bobby J. Ord Bobby J. Ord was born in Leslie, West Virginia in 1933 and was a 1951 graduate of Rupert High School in West Virginia. Ord was a 1965 graduate of Rio Grande College earning his B.S. degree in Education and Social Studies. He continued his education at Ohio University where he earned his Master’s Degree in Economic Education and then continued in the PHD program where he earned a degree in Education Administration. He has lived in Syracuse with wife Leah since 1971. Ord was the Superintendent of Southern Local Schools from 1973 to 1994. He was both the High School Principal and Superintendent during Hall of Fame inductee Larry Wolfe and his family Hall of Fame inductee Melanie Weese and her family the 1992-1993 school year. He returned to Southern after retirement to serve as Interim Superintendent in 2002. Ord was English/Biology teacher, fiscal manager, and basketball coach in 1972-73 at Southern Local. In the fall of 1973 he became Superintendent, a position he held until retirement in 1994. He was not only noted for his strong influence on academics, but his support of Southern athletics, where he attended nearly every event. Ord was noted for digging right into school projects and at one time helped shovel coal in his coveralls at the old Racine Elementary school. Ord’s birthplace of Leslie, W.Va., was a coal camp deep in the Appalachian Mountains. For ten years after graduation, he learned a strong work ethic by working in the coal mines for ten years. His proudest achievement was the building of an “achievement-based curriculum” at Southern where the staff helped design achievement goals, and devised ways to achieve the goals. The result of this was that — all but one year of Ord’s tenure — Southern was ranked one or two in the region academically out of a total of 26 districts. Ord was known for his professional demeanor and building positive relationships with students, staff, and community. He most recently served on Syracuse Village Council, served on the Meigs County Local Emergency Planning Committee and was a charter member of the SEOVEC governing board, serving one year as chairman. He continues to be very involved in community activities. Four of Ord’s five children were Southern graduates. Family members joining Ord for the ceremony, in person or in spirit, were, Robbie and Steve Miller and their daughter Kami Davidson; Verne Ord and his son, Kyle, his wife, Lisa and their children Alivia and Alisa; and Verne’s daughter Jamie Morris, her husband, Ben and their children, Rhiannon and India; Stephanie Ash Yonker and her husband, Steve Yonker and her children, Michael, his wife, Mandy and children, Skyler and Brooklyn; and Stephanie’s son Matthew, his wife, Courtney and their children, Bryleigh and Sydney; Lee and Mike Codner and their daughter, Brandi Davidson and her husband John; and Shauna Clark and her daughter Addisyn Ramsburg; and Jaye Ord and her children Drew and Morgan Hoover.

We should hope for peace, but Obama and Kerry make optimism difficult. Ideally, the Obama administration would simply exit the Middle East, taking all its military and economic aid with it. The U.S. government cannot micromanage events there, especially when it is no honest, neutral broker. Shamefully, it is firmly in the Israeli camp against the Palestinians (who, let us remember, are the occupied, not the occupiers), and generally in the Sunni Muslim camp against the Shi’ites, led by Iran. (Iraq is the anomaly.) As welcome as a U.S. exit would be, alas, it won’t happen anytime soon, so the best we can hope for is rapprochement with Iran. The U.S.-led economic sanctions impose an unconscionable hardship on Iranians — for example, depriving the elderly and children of medicines and nourishment. Clearly, a war would be catastrophic on many levels for nearly all concerned, including Americans. (I say “nearly all” because opportunistic rulers in Israel and Saudi Arabia could benefit.) Given the circumstances, one might expect signs of wholehearted American support for rapprochement, but we’re not seeing them. The U.S. government, along with the four other permanent members of the UN Security Council and Germany, reached an interim agreement with Iran aimed at demonstrating the peaceful nature of the Islamic Republic’s nuclear facilities. Of course, we already knew the intentions are peaceful. Iran is a party to the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and is routinely inspected by the International Atomic Energy Agency, which has certified that no uranium has been diverted to weapons production. Moreover, U.S. and Israeli intelligence say that Iran has not decided to build a nuclear bomb, and its Supreme Leader long ago condemned weapons of mass destruction as sinful. Under the interim agreement, which is to be a bridge to a permanent accord, Iran will take additional measures to reassure the world, including converting its enriched uranium to a form unsuitable for weapons but appropriate for power generation and medical purposes. This should cheer all peace-minded people. So why do Obama and Kerry say things that make us doubt their sincerity about seeking a diplomatic resolution? For example, Kerry recently said that “the military option that is available to the United States is ready and prepared to do what it would have to do.” Threatening war hardly demonstrates the spirit of peace-making. Further, investigative reporter Gareth Porter points out that Kerry repeatedly says the agreement obligates Iran to “dismantle” nuclear equipment, such as centrifuges used to enrich uranium. Iranian President Hassan Rouhani protests that this is incorrect. Porter writes that the “tough U.S. rhetoric may be adding new obstacles to the search for a comprehensive nuclear agreement.” Is the administration moving the goal posts? “In fact,” Porter continues, drawing on CNN interviews, “[Iranian foreign The Daily Sentinel Reader Services Correction Policy Our main concern in all stories is to be accurate.

The NPT does not prohibit parties from enriching uranium for electricity and medical treatments. “The Obama administration’s rhetoric of ‘dismantlement,’ however, has created a new political reality: the US news media has accepted the idea that Iran must ‘dismantle’ at least some of its nuclear program to prove that it is not seeking nuclear weapons,” Porter writes. Thus, Kerry’s deception could inflame the public against Iran and jeopardize the chance of a settlement. Obama himself told the New Yorker’s David Remnick there’s less than an even chance of a permanent agreement, which is worse than the odds he gave late last year. And while he reminded Americans that it was the United States that overthrew a democratic Iranian government in 1953, he called on Israel and Saudi Arabia to focus on their common bond against Iran. That doesn’t sound like a man seeking peace. Sheldon Richman is vice president and editor at The Future of Freedom Foundation in Fairfax, Va. (www.fff. org). The Associated Press WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama’s Asia policy took a hit this week, and it came from a member of his own party. The top Democratic senator, Harry Reid, announced that he opposes legislation that’s key for a trans-Pacific trade pact that is arguably the most important part of Obama’s effort to strengthen American engagement in Asia. Since Obama rolled out the policy, most attention has been on the military aspect, largely because it was described as a rebalance in U.S. priorities after a decade of costly war in Afghanistan and Iraq. But officials have increasingly stressed that Obama’s foreign policy “pivot” to Asia is about more than cementing America’s stature as the pre-eminent power in the Asia-Pacific as China grows in strength. It’s about capitalizing on the region’s rapid economic growth. That’s the importance of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, or TPP, an ambitious free trade agreement being negotiated by 12 nations, including Japan, that account for some 40 percent of global gross domestic product. “The pivot is the TPP right now,” Victor Cha, director of Asian studies at Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service, told a conference at a Washington think tank this week on U.S. policy and the outlook for Asia in 2014. The problem for Obama is that Congress needs to approve so-called fast track negotiating authority to move TPP along. Many of his fellow Democrats are against fast-track authority, which would require Congress to act on the trade deals negotiated by the administration by a yes-or-no vote, without the ability to make any changes. In a bitterly divided Washington, Obama’s in the rare position of having more support for a key policy among his political rivals, the Republicans, than from his own party. Reid, the Senate majority leader, said Wednesday that he opposed fast-track authority and that lawmakers should not push for it now — a comment suggesting that legislation introduced three weeks ago will go nowhere soon. The Obama administration’s Asia policy has been welcomed by countries wary of China’s rise and expansive territorial claims. During the president’s first term, the U.S. made progress in strengthening old alliances with nations like the Philippines, forging deeper ties with Indonesia and Vietnam and befriending former pariah state Myanmar. There were missteps. Angry politics at home forced Obama to withdraw from the East Asia Summit last fall, raising some questions about his commitment to the region. New military deployments in the AsiaPacific — a few hundred Marines in Australia, new warships rotated through Singapore 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.

Asia got little mention in Obama’s State of the Union address Tuesday, adding to perceptions in some quarters that the pivot has dropped in the administration’s policy agenda in the president’s second term. But he did urge both parties in Congress to approve fast-track legislation needed to make the TPP and a trade deal under negotiation with Europe a reality, saying it would open new markets and create American jobs. While that legislation is co-sponsored by a senior Democrat — Obama’s nominee to become the next ambassador to China, Sen. Max Baucus — many in the party join with labor unions in opposing lowered trade barriers, which they worry will cost jobs due to increased competition. But top Republicans who want fast-track authority accuse the administration of failing to do its part to mobilize support for it among Democrats in Congress — a task that will be complicated by the midterm elections in November. Lawmakers will be careful to avoid measures that could hurt their prospects of re-election. In an emailed comment Friday, U.S. Trade Representative Michael Froman remained upbeat about the TPP, saying that momentum developed to advance the TPP talks in 2013 is carrying over to 2014. He said the administration is working closely with Congress and is committed to bringing home a deal “worthy of broad support from the American people and their representatives in Congress.” Ambassadors of Japan and Vietnam both say they want TPP negotiations to be completed before Obama visits Asia in April. Japan’s Kenichiro Sasae told the Center for Strategic and International Studies this week that fast-track authority is needed because there are worries the U.S. would seek changes to the agreement. He also acknowledged challenges remain on auto and agricultural products between the biggest players in the TPP, the Japan and the U.S. The good news for Washington was that the Japanese and Vietnamese envoys remained strongly supportive of the U.S. role in Asia, viewing it as a stabilizing influence in region beset by territorial disputes. Those tensions have heightened fears of a conflict, as China stakes its claims to contested islands in the East and South China Seas. State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki told reporters that from the president on down, the United States “could not be more committed to our relationship with Asia.” Despite U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry’s deep involvement in highstakes Mideast diplomacy, this month he will make his fifth trip to the region since taking office a year ago.

(AP) — An intense manhunt was underway Monday for a convicted killer who peeled a hole in two fences with his hands to escape from a Michigan prison before abducting a woman and fleeing to Indiana where the victim and her vehicle were safely recovered, authorities said. Officials were stunned by the brazen escape Sunday night of Michael David Elliot, who had a record of good behavior during his 20 years in custody. He wore a white civilian kitchen uniform to evade security and blend in with snow at the Ionia Correctional Facility in western Michigan, prisons spokesman Russ Marlan said. Prison fences were equipped with motion sensors to alert guards. The fences also carry electric current to shock anyone that touches them. “It appears that did not happen. … He was not zapped with electricity, and he was not picked up by the motion sensors,” Marlan said. Elliot, 40, then abducted a woman and stole her Jeep outside the prison in Ionia. She later escaped when he stopped for gas in Middlebury, Ind., some 100 miles to the south. The woman’s red Jeep was found abandoned nearby in Shipshewana later Monday. “Residents in Shipshewana and surrounding areas: lock your residences and stay indoors. Only answer door for law enforcement,” the LaGrange County, Ind., sheriff’s department said. An alert on Elliot was issued to law enforcement nationwide. The woman told police that he said he wanted to get as far from the Michigan prison as possible. “We had dog teams. We had a helicopter from the state police,” said Michigan Corrections Department Director Dan Heyns. “The response was good but he’d left the area by the time we were mobilized totally 100 percent. It didn’t take him long to get down to Indiana. … His flight path now has expanded dramatically.” Nothing in Elliot’s record suggested he might escape, said Heyns, adding, “This was an entirely one-man operation.” The woman who was abducted by Elliot was able to call 911 from a concealed cellphone while he was pumping gas at the store near Middlebury in Elkhart County, Ind. She ran to a restroom where she locked herself inside. Elliot knocked on the door, but she stayed inside until police arrived and wasn’t harmed. Elliot was discovered missing from the prison about 9:30 p.m. Sunday, probably 2 ½ hours after he escaped by using his hands to create a hole in two fences, Marlan said. “There was a perimeter vehicle with an armed officer who was circling the facility during this time period. (Elliot) was able to evade or avoid detection,” Marlan said. He said it wasn’t immediately known if electronic security measures at the fence were not working or if Elliot somehow avoided them. Elliot was serving life behind bars for fatally shooting four people and burning down their Gladwin County house in 1993 when he was 20 years old, according to court records. Elliot and his accomplices were trying to steal money from a drug dealer, police said. He was arrested a few days later in possession of a gun that tied him to the slayings. One of Elliot’s co-defendants testified against him, saying he laughed about shooting the victims in the head. Elliot was convicted of firstdegree murder in 1994 and was sentenced to life in prison without parole. Wet, heavy snow falls on East, disrupts travel PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A winter storm dumped several inches of wet, heavy snow on parts of the eastern United States on Monday, snarling air and road travel for commuters and Super Bowl fans, cutting power, and closing schools and government offices. Fat flakes began falling during the morning commute Monday and continued falling throughout the afternoon in Philadelphia, creating slushy sidewalks and streets. The Philadelphia and New York areas were expecting about 8 inches, erasing all memory of Sunday’s weather in 50s. In New Jersey, Gov. Chris Christie declared a state of emergency with travel conditions hazardous. Nonessential government employees were dismissed early. Government offices, courts and schools closed in parts of Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia; scattered power outages were reported throughout the region. As the storm moved out, the weather service reported about 8 inches of snow near Frostburg, Md., while parts of southern Ohio got about 10 inches. By mid-afternoon, the flight-tracking website FlightAware reported more than 3,000 delayed flights and 1,700 canceled flights nationwide in cities including Philadelphia, Newark, N.J., and New York. Inbound flights to Newark, LaGuardia and Kennedy airports were delayed one to three hours because of snow and ice. For Russ Louderback, of Fishers, Ind., and his 11-year-old son Mason, the Super Bowl was a triple whammy of bad luck in less than 24 hours: Their beloved Denver Broncos lost, they got stuck in an hourslong traffic jam leaving the stadium and their 3 p.m. flight home Monday was canceled. “It was so congested we couldn’t get out of New Jersey, even though we left early because our team lost,” said Louderback, 57, a hotel executive. He hopes to be Ohio to give month’s notice for execution changes COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The state plans to notify a condemned killer a month in advance of his execution if changes are made to Ohio’s lethal injection policy. The 30-day notice comes in the case of death row inmate Gregory Lott. He is scheduled to die March 19 for killing an East Cleveland man in a 1986 arson fire. Attorneys for Lott sued Monday to stop the execution to give them time to argue that the state’s system is unconstitutional because it could result in a lingering death. The lawsuit follows last month’s lengthy execution of Dennis McGuire by two untried drugs. Lott’s attorneys also argue that Ohio is breaking state and federal laws by using drugs for executions without prescriptions. A message was left with the Ohio prisons agency. Southern Ohio hit by more snow; more on the way CINCINNATI (AP) — The latest storm that dumped as much as 10 inches of snow on parts of southern Ohio has moved out of the state. Meteorologist Ashley Novak with the National Weather Service says the snowfall that closed or delayed some schools and government offices had stopped by early afternoon. Ohio University in Athens and Shawnee State University in Portsmouth were among schools that closed for the day. But Ohio won’t get much of a respite. Another storm is expected to move into parts of the state late Tuesday afternoon into evening. Forecasters say the heaviest snow probably will be north of Dayton and Columbus. The southern part of the state could get snow mixed with rain or freezing rain, making for a difficult Wednesday commute for many. on a plane Monday evening. Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer was among the stranded travelers after her return flight to Phoenix was canceled Monday, a spokesman said. Brewer attended the big game as part of the ceremonial handoff of hosting duties; next year’s Super Bowl is in Glendale, Ariz. Francois Emond, of Alma, Quebec, arrived at Newark Airport at 6 a.m. Monday to find his flight home had been canceled. Wearing a Seahawks championship hat and an ear-to-ear smile, he said he didn’t care about the cancellation or the weather in light of Seattle’s victory. He planned to spend an extra night at his hotel in New York. “The night will be very short,” Emond said. “When you win a Super Bowl for the first time, the night is very, very short.” In Connecticut, 71-yearold architect Frank Emery described messy conditions outside as he stopped at a coffee shop in New Haven. “A lot of people must have called in sick after the Super Bowl,” he said. “It’s not cleaned up as well as usual.” In Philadelphia, the airport experienced delays as long as four hours at one point Monday morning because of snow and ice. But the flight home for Seahawks fan George Shiley, 50, of Snohomish, Wash., remained on schedule at midday. Shiley, a Seattle season ticket holder, had won a lottery for Super Bowl tickets. He and his buddy stayed in Philadelphia, about 85 miles southwest of the stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. “It’s been a great trip. I joked that ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’ — and it was, until today,” said Shiley, referring to the FX sitcom.

Lady Eagles topple Boyd County, 51-41 By Alex Hawley ahawley@civitasmedia.com HUNTINGTON, W.Va. — It may not have been pretty but a win is a win. The Eastern girls basketball team turned the ball over 25 times Saturday morning but the Lady Eagles still managed to escape the Big Sandy Superstore Arena with a 51-41 victory over Boyd County, in the opening game of the final day of the Huntington Invitational. The Lady Lions (13-7) led 7-5 at the 5:30 mark of the opening period but a 14-to-4 run by the Lady Eagles (17-1) to finish the first with a 19-11 lead. Eastern pushed its lead to nine points halfway through the second quarter but Boyd County rallied to cut the lead to 28-23 at halftime. Eastern picked up the defense in the second half, holding BCHS to five points in the third period, and extending the lead to 4128 headed into the fourth. Boyd County hit a pair of three-pointers in the fourth but went just 7-of-16 from the free throw line, allowing the Lady Eagles to hold on for the 51-41 victory. “Obviously, Boyd County can play really well with the wins they have, beating Fairland and Newark Catholic,” sixth year Eastern head coach John Burdette said. “I told the girls ‘this is what determines whether you’re going to be successful or not’. We started sluggish but the girls pulled through and ended up getting the win.” See EAGLES | 7 Eastern senior Katie Keller (15) shoots over a Boyd County defender during the first half of the Lady Eagles’ 10 point victory, Saturday morning at the Big Sandy Superstore Arena in Huntington.

The Blue and White extended their lead to 65-23 at the end of the third and closed the game with a 12to-9 spurt to claim the 77-32 victory. GAHS was led by Wes Jarrell with 18 points, followed by Alex White and Wade Jarrell with 12 each. Reid Eastman marked 11 points, Seth Atkins added eight, Michael Putney had seven, while Jacob Strieter finished with four. Trevor McNeal had three points and Isaiah Franklin rounded out the Gallia Academy total with two points. The Blue Devils pulled down 40 rebounds, led by Eastman with nine and Wes Jarrell with seven.

The Blue Devils also defeated Jackson earlier this season in the Apple City, by a count of 54-38. The last Ironmen victory came last season in a victory at River Valley. �Tuesday, February 4, 2014 The Daily Sentinel s Page 7 www.mydailysentinel.com OVP Sports Briefs URG to host Youth Basketball Tournament RIO GRANDE, Ohio — The University of Rio Grande men’s soccer program is sponsoring a Youth Basketball Tournament, March 7-9, at the Newt Oliver Arena and the Auxiliary Gymnasium inside the Lyne Center on the URG campus.

URG men’s soccer to host Spring ID Camp RIO GRANDE, Ohio — The University of Rio Grande will host a Spring ID Camp on Saturday, March 22, from 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m., at the Evan E. Davis Soc- RedStorm men outlast Cumberlands in OT By Randy Payton Special to OVP RIO GRANDE, Ohio — Junior forward Josh Reagan had a team-high 35 points and nine rebounds to lead the University of Rio Grande past the University of the Cumberlands, 99-96 in overtime, Saturday afternoon, in Mid-South Conference men’s basketball action at the Newt Oliver Arena. The RedStorm, who are ranked No. 14 in the latest NAIA Division I coaches poll, improved to 15-7 overall and 8-3 in the MSC with the win - their third straight against the Patriots over the past two seasons. The victory also secured Rio Grande’s first winning season since the 2008-09 campaign when it finished 20-11 in the nowdefunct NAIA Division II America Mideast Conference. Cumberlands dropped to 13-8 overall and 5-6 in league play with the loss. Freshman forward Bilal Young (Cleveland, OH) added 17 points in the winning effort for Rio Grande, while senior guard Jermaine Warmack (Orange, N.J.) and sophomore guard D.D. Joiner (Columbus, OH) finished with 11 points apiece. Warmack also had a team-high five assists. The Patriots were led in the loss by R.J. Scott, who had a game-high 36 points and seven rebounds to go along with a team-high eight rebounds. Tony Bradley had 15 points and Shaquille Lowery finished with 14 points and seven assists in a losing cause for UC, while Steve Goins chipped in with 11 points. After the previous two meetings in the series were decided in double overtime and on a free throw with no time remaining, Saturday’s get together produced 11 ties and nine lead changes. Rio Grande led by as many as 13 points with just over two minutes remaining in the first half, but the Patriots closed the gap to eight by halftime and finished the comeback when a three-pointer by Scott with 6:30 remaining in regulation gave the visitors a 68-66 advantage. A back-and-forth exchange ensued down the home stretch, with five of the 11 ties and four of the nine lead changes taking place in the final 5:29. Rio led by as many as four points as late as 1:42 left to play, but a three-pointer by UC’s Michael Dow with 1:27 remaining and a jumper in the lane by Taylor Gover with 52 seconds showing sent the Patriots back in front, 80-79. The RedStorm regained the advantage on a pair of free throws by Joiner with 34 seconds left, but a three-pointer by Scott with eight seconds remaining gave UC an 83-81 edge. Warmack sent the game to overtime by going coast-to-coast following Scott’s go-ahead trifecta and scoring on a layup with two seconds left to knot the tally at 83-all. Scott canned one of two free throws just 15 seconds into the extra session to give the Patriots a one-point lead, but Reagan - a native of Cleveland, Ohio - scored on a layup just 19 seconds later to give Rio Grande a lead it would never relinquish. The RedStorm twice led by as many as five points in the overtime and UC closed to within a point on three occasions, but the Patriots never managed to re-tie the game or get the lead back. Rio Grande returns to action on Saturday, traveling to Portsmouth for its second meeting of the season against rival Shawnee State. Tipoff is set for 4 p.m. cer Complex on the URG campus. The camp, which is open to all high school age boys, costs $75 and includes lunch and a t-shirt. Participants will get a pair of elite level training sessions with the Rio Grande coaching staff and the chance to practice alongside the Mid-South Conference champion RedStorm squad on one of the finest pitches in all of NAIA. There will also be 7 vs. 7 and 11 vs. 11 game opportunities, as well as a presentation of the day-to-day experiences of a Rio Grande player and a Q&A session with attending coaches.

CORRECTION It was erroneously reported in the February 2 sports edition of the Sunday TimesSentinel that River Valley had never defeated Chesapeake in boys basketball during its tenure as a member of the Ohio Valley Conference. The Raiders swept the Panthers during the 2006-07 campaign, posting wins of 72-44 at CHS and 69-60 in Cheshire. Friday night’s 58-55 victory allowed the Raiders to pick up their first-ever win over Chesapeake in the new gymnasium located in Bidwell. RedStorm women upend Patriots By Randy Payton Special to OVP RIO GRANDE, Ohio — The long-awaited upset of the 201314 season for head coach David Smalley and the University of Rio Grande women’s basketball came to fruition on Saturday afternoon, as the RedStorm defeated No.21 Cumberlands, 88-81, in Mid-South Conference action at the Newt Oliver Arena. The win snapped a four-game losing streak for Rio, which improved to 15-8 overall and 4-7 in league play. The victory also marks the first win in six tries against ranked opponents this season. “We had the upset against Georgetown and let it slip through our hands,” Smalley said, referring to Thursday’s fivepoint loss to the No. 6 Tigers a game in which the RedStorm blew a 21-point halftime lead. “I think we took another big step tonight as a squad. We really stepped up the intensity down the stretch and manage the ball well on offense. Cumberlands is a very powerful and explosive team and we just kept matching up with them and knocking down buckets when we needed them. We needed something like the Georgetown loss to make us mature a bit and I think that really helped us tonight.” Cumberlands jumped out to its largest lead of the game at 19-13 with just under 12 minutes remaining in the first half, but the RedStorm would counter with an 11-4 run in a span of just over 3-1/2 minutes thanks to scoring efforts from five different players. The remainder of the half would go back and forth and eventually end with the Patriots owning a 46-42 advantage at the intermission. Rio Grande, which had won just three times in the previous nine games when it trailed at halftime, emerged from the lockerroom with energy and embarked on a 17-6 run over the first 7-1/2 minutes to take a 59-52 lead. While the run proved to be an impressive offensive output, it was the Rio Grande defense that buckled down and allowed just one Cumberlands field goal over the course of the first eight minutes of the second half. “Cumberlands really just came out in the second half and turned the ball over,” Smalley said. “Some were unforced, but I’d like to think our defense played a part in that. I don’t know if Cumberlands expended too much energy against Shawnee State on Thursday night or not, but our defense just blanketed them in the second half. I can’t say enough about how proud I am of this team right now.” Cumberlands did not go away quietly down the stretch of the game, though, as they pulled within one field goal five different times. The RedStorm responded each time, though, with a bucket of their own and relied on their interior play, as freshman forward Alexis Payne (Deep Water, WV) recorded eight of her 14 points in the final 7-1/2 minutes of the contest. Leading 78-75 with two minutes remaining, the RedStorm administered a dagger to the Patriots in the form of a 7-0 run which produced an 85-75 lead with just over a minute left and allowed Smalley to breathe a sigh of relief. “We all took big steps tonight,” Smalley said. “It was really just a great team win over a great basketball team. Sarah Bonar, who didn’t feel the greatest for the second consecutive game, really came up big for us.” Shooting-wise, the RedStorm connected on 49 percent of its tries from the field overall (30 of 61), 35 percent from beyond the three-point arc (6 of 17) and 68 percent from the free throw stripe (22 of 32). Cumberlands, which slipped to 14-7 overall and 8-3 in the MSC, shot 34 percent overall (24 of 69), 34 percent from three-point range (8 of 23) and 86 percent (25 of 29) from the free throw line. Rio Grande was able to hold the Patriots to just 28 percent from the field in the second half, including a stone-cold 14 percent from three-point range. The RedStorm also enjoyed a 45-41 edge in rebounding and committed one less turnover (16) than their guests. Junior guard Brianna Thomas (Maplewood, NJ) fell one point short of her career-high by finishing with 32 points, nine assists and five rebounds, while sophomore forward Sarah Bonar (Hartford, OH) contributed with a 19-point, seven-rebound effort. Payne finished with 14 points, while freshman forward Brooke Marcum (Vinton, OH) grabbed a team-high nine rebounds and sophomore forward Harley Adler (Burton, OH) swatted away six shots. Leading Cumberlands was a quartet of double-digit scorers led by Jill Herman with 24 points, seven rebounds and five assists. Jackie Alexander netted 18 points, while Julie Haye and Brooke Forsythe rounded out the double-digit scoring with 16 and 14 points, respectively. Rio Grande returns to action next Saturday when they hit the road to take on arch-rival and conference foe Shawnee State in a pivotal MSC matchup scheduled for a 2 p.m. tipoff. Rio Grande baseball splits season-opening DH By Randy Payton Special to OVP MOBILE, Ala. — The University of Rio Grande baseball team rallied for three runs in the seventh and final inning of game two and salvaged a split of its season-opening double-header against Martin Methodist (Tenn.), Saturday afternoon at Spring Hill College’s Stan Galle Field. The RedStorm coughed up a fourth inning lead in the opener, dropping a 4-3 decision, but used their three-run uprising to post a 5-2 win in the nightcap. Junior Kevin Arroyo (Toa Baja, Puerto Rico) and sophomore Chris Ford (Athens, OH) collected three hits in the twinbill, while juniors Grant Tamane (Pickering, Ontario, Canada), Kyle Findley (Cincinnati, OH) and Anthony Knittel (Portsmouth, OH) and freshman Luis Jimenez (Salinas, P.R.) all had two hits each on the day. Knittel started and took the loss in the opener, while senior Mike Deitsch (Cincinnat, OH) earned the win and senior David Steele (Kettering, OH) notched a save in game two. In the game two victory, Rio Grande jumped to a 1-0 lead in the first inning on a run-scoring single by Findley and - after the Redhawks tied the game in the home second - the RedStorm regained a one-run advantage thanks to a leadoff home run by Jimenez in the fifth. Martin Methodist (2-2) tied the game again in the bottom of the fifth, but Rio mounted what proved to be its game-winning rally in the top of the seventh. Knittel and Jimenez began the inning with consecutive singles and junior Luke Taylor (Pedro, OH) bunted both runners into scoring position, setting the stage for a tworun single to left by sophomore Austin Hall (Wheelersburg, OH). Arroyo accounted for the final run of the frame with a two-out double to deep right when scored sophomore Tyler Noel (Portsmouth, OH), Eagles From Page 6 The Lady Eagles were led by Jenna Burdette with 13 points, followed by Laura Pullins and Jordan Parker with nine each. Maddie Rigsby added seven points, Erin Swatzel had six, Katie Keller added five, while Alia Hayes finished with two. Eastern shot 21-of-46 (45.7 percent) from the field, 3-of-11 (27.3 percent) from three-point range and 6-of-9 (66.7 percent) from the free throw line. As a team the Lady Eagles had 36 rebounds, 12 steals, 19 assists, two blocks and 25 turnovers. “I think an early morning game effects anybody even if you hadn’t played the night before because you’re not used to it,” John Burdette said. “Some of our shots were short but were about the end of the season so if you’re gonna be in shape you’re probably pretty close to being there now.” Swatzel led the Green and Gold with eight rebounds, followed by Parker and Keller with six each. Burdette and Parker each had five assists, Laura Pullins had four, while Burdette had a game-high who came on to run for Hall. Deitsch, who scattered five hits and a walk while striking out five over the first six innings, gave way to Steele, who closed the door on the Redhawks in the seventh by retiring the side in order, including the final two outs of the day by strikeout. Arroyo finished 3-for-4, while Jimenez had two hits and scored twice in the victory. Brodie Jeffery had two hits, while Caleb Lindsey doubled and Blake Truett drove home a run in the loss for Martin Methodist. Clay Brown started and took the loss for the RedHawks, allowing nine of Rio’s 10 hits and all five runs in 6-1/3 innings. Rio Grande also grabbed an early lead in game one thanks to a two-out first inning home run by Ford. After MMC tied the game in the third, the RedStorm regained the lead in the home fourth when Tamane opened the inning with a single to left and eventually rode home on a two-out double by Knittel. The Redhawks took control, though, with three runs in the fifth and never looked back. Rio did draw to within a run in the sixth when Ford and Findley reached on one-out singles and a two-out throwing error allowed Ford to score. See BASEBALL | 10 Tornadoes three steals. Keller anchored the EHS defense with two blocks in the win. Boyd County was led by junior Logan Fraley with 17 points and sophomore Destiny Goins with 13. Taylor Wheeler marked six points, Alexis Lunsford added three and Huston Reeves finished with two, rounding out the Lady Lions total. BCHS shot 12-of-39 (30.8 percent) from the field, 3-of-15 (20 percent) from beyond the arc and 14-of-29 (48.3 percent) from the charity stripe. Boyd County had 22 rebounds, led by Goins and Wheeler with six each, and 20 turnovers in the setback. The Lady Lions were held 14 points below their season average of 55 points per game, marking their second lowest total of the year. BCHS holds a 61-60 win over Newark Catholic and a 61-51 victory over Fairland this season. All 17 of the Lady Eagles’ victories this season have been by double digits. Eastern’s Jenna Burdette was named MVP of the game for the Lady Eagles, while Logan Fraley was named MVP for the Lady Lions. Burdette was also the Eastern MVP in Friday night’s overtime loss to Huntington St. Joe. From Page 6 The Tornadoes came out of half time with new energy, outscoring Alexander 18-7 in the third quarter. Southern took the lead 31-28 at the 4:51 mark of the third quarter on a three point shot by Taylor McNickle. The Tornadoes would not trail in the remainder of the game. Southern held a 37-32 lead after three quarters of play. Alexander would be a close as three points with 1:30 remaining in the game, but baskets by Chandler Drummer along with free throws by Dennis Teaford Zac Beegle and Tristen Wolfe allowed Southern to increase the lead to as much as seven in the final minute. Southern won by a final score of 5450. Drummer lead the Tor- nadoes with 16 points and 11 rebounds, followed by Dennis Teaford with 13 points and seven rebounds. Taylor McNickle added eight points, Trenton Deem had seven points, Tristen Wolfe added six points and Zac Beegle had four points. Beegle added 11 rebounds in the game. Wolfe lead the team in assists with five. Beegle, Drummer and Wolfe each had two steals in the victory. Jordan Moseley and Seth Richardson lead Alexander with 13 points each, followed by Mason Chapman with 10 points and Lukas Thompson with five points. Kyle Howard scored three points, and Chris Wingett, Shea Grigsby and Cory Chapman each added two points. Southern out rebounded the guests 42-23. Southern had 17 turnovers while Alexander committed 12. The Tornadoes were 7-9 from the free throw line, including 5-6 in the fourth quarter. Alexander was 1-2 at the line.

Tuesday, February 4, 2014 Think your Pet has what it takes to be crowned the cutest pet around? NEW YORK (AP) — Three words raced through Seattle Seahawks linebacker Malcolm Smith’s mind as he streaked toward the end zone in the Super Bowl, returning his interception of a pass by Peyton Manning: “Don’t get caught.” That, Smith explained Monday at a news conference, would be the “typical thoughts a defensive player (would have) with the ball.” And he heeded his own advice, going 69 yards for a touchdown on that play. He added a fumble recovery later and earned MVP honors as Seattle beat Manning’s Denver Broncos 43-8 for the Seahawks’ first NFL championship. At no moment during Sunday’s action did Smith think he would take home the award. His teammates did. “Even during the game,” Smith recalled, “guys were like, ‘You might be MVP.’ And I was like, ‘No way. No way. Not me.’ But to be here, it’s just pretty cool.” Smith is not one of those players who long ago seemed destined to wind up getting the keys to a new vehicle the day after the Super Bowl, a sponsor’s prize for the big game’s best player. Coming out of college at Southern California — where he was coached by the Seahawks’ current boss, Pete Carroll — Smith wasn’t invited to the NFL combine, where top prospects are measured and evaluated. Then, when the 2011 draft rolled around, he wasn’t taken until the seventh round, the 242nd player chosen.

However, one out later, Taylor was thrown out at the plate trying to score on a bunt by Arroyo as Noel who was running for Hall - advanced into scoring position, but Tamane flied out to right-center to end the game. Ford had two hits and scored twice in the loss, while Knittel suffered the setback on the hill after allowing three hits, five walks and all four runs in 4-2/3 innings. Jeffery had two hits and two RBI for MMC, while Blake Beavers allowed six hits and a pair of walks while fanning six in a complete game victory. “Overall, I thought our guys played pretty well considering we’d only been outside two times prior to today,” said Rio Grande head coach Brad Warnimont. “We did a decent job at the plate, our pitchers threw the ball well, we only made one error in two games - I really couldn’t complain.” Rio Grande will close out its weekend road swing on Sunday afternoon with a doubleheader against host Spring Hill College. First pitch for the opening game is set for noon.
