Long-awaited U.S. 33 rest areas remain closed
Upgrades and modernization
slowed by permit process, weather
Sarah Hawley

shawley@civitasmedia.com

MEIGS COUNTY —
More than a year after the
announcement ok in Meigs
County, those modern facilities remain closed to
the public.
Ohio Department of
Transportation District 10
Public Information Officer
David Rose said earlier
this month that ODOT is

working to finalize a permit with the Department
of Commerce which is
needed to complete the
project. That permit will
allow the project to move
toward completion.
He stated that there
were a few other weather
related delays, including
the placement of a larger
transformer by AEP which
was delayed due to storms
on the east coast.

The project was expected to be completed in late
fall 2012, as announced by
ODOT.
On February 24, 2012,
ODOT announced that the
long-discussed
modernization project of the rest
areas on U.S. 33 in Meigs
County would be completed. The project was to
include modernization of
facilities at both current
locations on U.S. 33 near
Darwin.
“Modernization of these
facilities is a much needed
improvement to the U.S.
33 Connector especially

since these are the first
rest areas north of Charleston, West Virginia,” said
ODOT District 10 Deputy
Director T. Steve Williams
in the announcement.
The project was expected to be completed
in late fall 2012 — before
the Thanksgiving travel
holiday — according to
original estimates. That
was still the time schedule
at the groundbreaking ceremony in late July 2012.
In mid-November, then

GALLIPOLIS — A man
accused of obstructing justice while aiding James E.
Gardner as he eluded law
enforcement last November, was recently ordered
to pay a fine in an unrelated criminal case.
Lyndon M. Montgomery, Sr., 52, Crown City,
pleaded guilty to a falsification charge last week in
the Common Pleas Court
of Gallia County and was
ordered to pay a fine in the
amount of $1,000 and to
pay the costs of prosecution in relation to the case.
The defendant was initially charged with the illegal conveyance of drugs
onto the grounds of a detention facility, a third degree felony, in December.
Montgomery was arrested on November 30 after it
was discovered that he had
been providing transportation and shelter to Gardner, 41, Middleport, who
had been fleeing police officers following his father’s

death on November 11.
The indictment in this
case, filed on December
13, alleges that Montgomery attempted to smuggle
marijuana into the Gallia
County Jail following his
arrest for obstructing justice in late November.
According to the police
report, on the afternoon of
November 30, Montgomery was brought into the
jail by an agent with the
Ohio Bureau of Criminal
Identification and Investigation.
After being asked if he
had anything on his person
that he should not have,
the defendant reportedly
responded that he did not.
However, while a corrections officer took inventory of the defendant’s
property,
Montgomery
allegedly threw an empty
cigarette pack containing
approximately six grams
of marijuana into a nearby
trash can.
He was subsequently
charged with the illegal
conveyance of drugs onto

New maps indicate shale
drilling possibilities in Meigs
Staff Report

TDSnews@civitasmedia.com

POMEROY — The prospect that Meigs County may be
in the viable shale drilling region has improved, according to information provided by Meigs County Economic
Development Director Perry Varnadoe.
Last March when the Ohio Department of Natural Resources released maps of where they believe the Marcellus/Utica shale reserves lay in Ohio, Meigs County wasn’t
prominent and effectively had been removed from the
shale play. That contention was based on drilling data
points at that time. As many local residents know, interest from companies seeking to lease land in the county
dwindled about that same time.
However, an updated map was released in November
that showed the play as close to us as Washington County
and activity spiked there.
New maps have just been released reflecting closer data
points
that show that Meigs County may be in the shale

POMEROY — The art
departments at Meigs High
and Meigs Middle Schools
have became a little better
equipped to teach art to
the hundreds of students
enrolled, thanks to the Athens Local Professional Artist and Craftsman Association (A.L.P.A.C.A.).
For Meigs High, a printing press was provided by

A.L.P.A.C.A. for use by
the art students of Scott
Needs, while at the middle
school a variety of supplies
ranging from poster board
to paints was provided for
Melanie Quillen’s 436 students who have a class in
art. The total cost of the
printer and the art supplies
provided by A.L.P.A.C.A.
was about $1,000.

At the Middle School,
Quillen displayed a portion of the supplies she received to use in class projects. Included were 300

by the school district.

Patrol says, ‘drive sober or get pulled over’
COLUMBUS — As St. Patrick’s Day
approaches, the Ohio State Highway Patrol is urging drivers to designate a sober
driver before the party begins. The patrol
will be working with local law enforcement to remove impaired drivers as part
of the National Highway Safety Administration’s “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over”
campaign.
St. Patrick’s Day has become a popular
night to celebrate with friends and family.
However, due to impaired drivers, it has
also become a very dangerous night on
Ohio’s roadways. Last year, impaired drivers killed five of the six people that lost
their lives during the 24-hour reporting
period over St. Patrick’s Day. During this
same time period, the Patrol made 215
OVI arrests.
“We want people to enjoy the celebration, but we encourage them to do so responsibly,” said Colonel John Born, Patrol
superintendent. “Don’t press your luck —
designate a sober driver.”
To prevent deaths and injuries, the Pa-

trol is partnering with local law enforcement and safety advocates around the
state to increase enforcement on Ohio’s
roads and remind people to plan ahead to
designate a sober driver. More than 78 local law enforcement agencies around the
state will be conducting more than 2,100
hours of enforcement activity and 1,900
hours of saturation patrols in addition to
15 sobriety checkpoints, funded by federal
grants provided through the Patrol’s Ohio
Traffic Safety Office.
For bars and permit holders, overserving or serving underage customers
could also mean costly fines, suspension
or revocation of their liquor permit. The
Ohio Investigative Unit and other safety
partners have been working to educate
motorists and permit holders of these consequences in advance reminding people of
the dangers of driving impaired, and that
over-serving is against the law.
As always, motorists are encouraged
to call #677 to report drug activity or impaired drivers.

ney and testicular cancer.
Consequently, people in
the Mid-Ohio Valley who
have been drinking C8contaminated water may
be eligible for free medical
monitoring or personal injury claims.
The C8 Medical Panel,
which includes Dean Baker, MD, M.P.H., Melissa
McDiarmid, MD, M.P.H.,
D.A.B.T., and Harold Sox,
MD, M.A.C.P, exists to
determine what medical
screening is appropriate
for people who have been
drinking water contaminated with C8 in light of
findings by the C8 Science
Panel.
According to a January
court filing, the medical
panel intends to announce
protocols for initial screening of class members this
month with the protocols
for ongoing monitoring
scheduled to be released
in the fall.
Marietta attorney Ethan
Vessels is encouraging
people who have lived
within the impacted communities to understand
the process and participate in the screening that
is yet to come.
“Everyone who is eligible should definitely participate in medical monitoring,” Vessels said.
Vessels is hosting a series of informational town
hall meetings for members

of the impacted communities who want to understand all the issues facing
them and who may have
questions about illness or
medical monitoring.
Water districts found to
be contaminated with C8
include Belpre, Tuppers
Plains, Little Hocking and
Pomeroy, Ohio and Lubeck and Mason County,
West Virginia. The criteria for participation in
medical monitoring or
filing a personal injury
claim is not based on an
individual’s current place
of residence.
Callie Lyons, investigative journalist and author
of Stain-Resistant, Nonstick, Waterproof and Lethal: The Hidden Dangers
of C8, will be present at
the meetings to provide
information and answer
questions. Lyons has been
following the controversy
for the past 11 years.
This month, Vessels and
Lyons will meet with community members in Little
Hocking and Chester.
At 6 p.m. on Tuesday,
March 19, there will be a
town hall meeting at the
gymnasium of Little Hocking Elementary School. At
6 p.m. on Tuesday, March
26, a second town hall
meeting will be held at the
old Chester Courthouse.
The meetings are free and
open to the public.

OHIO VALLEY — This
month the C8 Medical
Panel is expected to announce the protocols for
the first phase of medical
monitoring available to
people in the Mid-Ohio
Valley who have been
drinking water contaminated with an industrial
surfactant. A town hallstyle public meeting will
be held in Chester on
March 26.
C8, also known as perfluorooctanoic acid or
PFOA, became the subject
of a class action lawsuit
against DuPont by thousands of people whose
water became contaminated with the manmade
substance as the result of
manufacturing processes
at DuPont Washington
Works near Parkersburg,
West Virginia. As a condition of a groundbreaking
settlement
agreement,
a panel of independent
epidemiologists
known
as the C8 Science Panel
was selected to determine whether or not the
impacted population was
at greater risk for disease
because of the exposure.
Findings from the C8 Science Panel determined
that there was a probable
link between C8 exposure
and

The ‘complete’ picture
Ohio University President
Roderick J. McDavis
Ohio is taking bold
steps to re-engineer the
state’s public higher education funding model and
reignite the historical mission of higher education
to ensure its commitment
to the public trust.
Through the centuries,
completion always has
been the key to the promise of higher education.
More recently, it also has
been the center of a national debate about the
future direction of public
higher education funding.
Today, the state of Ohio is
at the helm of this important conversation, thanks
to the work of the Ohio
Higher Education Funding Commission – whose
leadership is providing
sound solutions and, potentially, a new national
direction for higher education funding.
Comprised of presidents of public universities and community colleges across the state of
Ohio, the commission was
charged with developing a
funding formula that ties
state funds to measurable
outcomes. While many
colleges and universities
around the nation focused
their efforts on performance, the Ohio Higher
Education Funding Commission chose degree
completion as its central

metric – with dollars being awarded on the basis
of degrees completed,
rather than headcount. If
implemented, the resulting
completion-based
funding model could revolutionize the way higher
education does business.
Strong graduation rates
bolster the state of Ohio in
a number of ways. For students, degree completion
ensures preparedness in
an increasingly competitive and interconnected
world. For state businesses, the creation of a highly-trained work force fuels
Ohio’s ongoing economic
recovery.
And if the new funding model is approved
by the General Assembly and signed into law,
Ohio’s public institutions
of higher education will
soon have financial incentives to promote degree
completion. In short, the
proposed funding formula
aligns the interests of public universities and community colleges with the
interests of students and
employers.
While this market-responsive funding formula
holds financial uncertainty
for colleges and universities, it was voted for unanimously by the presidents
of all public universities
and community colleges
in Ohio. By giving clear
priority to student success, it demonstrates our

collective commitment to
students – their complete
educational
experience
and their future success.
Student success is indeed the cornerstone
upon which Ohio’s public
higher education system
has been built, and we believe the new funding formula will strengthen that
commitment. As attention
turns from head counts to
degree completion, each
public university and community college will be motivated to capitalize on its
own strengths to the benefit of future graduates.
And through the renewal
of the state economy, students may choose to live
and work in Ohio far beyond their college years.
Collectively, academia
and state government are
taking bold measures to
address Ohio’s outdated
funding formula for public
higher education. These
historic measures represent a shift in the way
Ohio views higher education. It also affirms the
unwavering
allegiance
of state universities and
community colleges to the
citizens and students of
Ohio.
It is my fervent hope
that creating a culture of
completion in Ohio will
lead to more competitive
colleges and universities
and, in turn, a more competitive state.

Where our money goes
Lee H. Hamilton
Over the last few weeks, as
the deadline for the congressionally mandated budget
cuts known as the “sequester”
came and went, we got a taste
of how difficult cutting federal
spending actually turns out to
be. The news is disconcerting:
thousands fewer food safety
inspections, some 70,000
fewer kids in early education
programs, people with mental
illness losing access to treatment, ships and aircraft going
without maintenance… It’s a

long and dispiriting list.
Yet as painful as the sequester might be, most policymakers know it’s not the main
event when it comes to our fiscal challenges. If you think of
federal spending as a pie, by far
the biggest slices go to Social
Security and unemployment
support, Medicare, Medicaid,
and other health programs,
which altogether make up well
over half. Military spending
accounts for about another
quarter, while the next biggest
slice, about 7 percent, is for interest on the federal debt. Far

and away the biggest drivers of
growth in the budget are Medicare and Medicaid. We cannot
get control of federal spending
without reining them in.
So if Congress and the White
House are serious about tackling federal spending, then the
piece they left out of the sequester — entitlement reform
— must be on the table. But
it’s been hard to tell from their
actions that they’re really serious. Members of Congress have
been taking to the airwaves for
weeks to decry the sequester’s
meat-cleaver approach to bud-

get-cutting, yet most of them
voted for it. That’s because
they find it easy to demand
cuts in federal spending in the
abstract, but painfully difficult
to cut specific programs.
This is why it takes extraordinary leadership to address
our fiscal issues. Americans
may bear some responsibility,
but our leaders have not leveled
with us about what it takes to
get a sensible budget and put
the economy on a path to recovery. I am hard-pressed to think
of an example of government

leaders’ inability to lead us to
a solution.
Their prolonged fighting is
causing businesses to hesitate,
workers to remain in limbo, and
an economy that needs a boost to
continue to stutter. They are denying us the ability to invest in our
future, promote economic growth,
and deal with the many other challenges our nation faces. Let’s stop
the blame game and get to work.

Gay marriage: Senator’s
shift, GOP soul-searching
WASHINGTON (AP) —
A Republican senator’s embrace of gay marriage is the
latest sign of soul-searching in
a party struggling to adapt in
a society whose demographics — and views on emotional issues — are changing fast.
Gay marriage still divides the party, with the
conservative wing strongly
opposed. But an increasing number of Republicans,
now including Sen. Rob
Portman of Ohio, are reversing course. Many others simply downplay the
subject.
With the issue of immigration also shifting rapidly
under Republicans’ feet, they
seem increasingly focused
— and united — on one

overarching goal: keeping
income taxes from rising.
Their solidarity on that issue is hindering President
Barack Obama’s efforts to
make higher tax revenue part
of a compromise approach to
deficit spending and expensive social programs.
These trends raise the possibility that the GOP — reeling after losing the popular
vote in five of the last six
presidential elections —
will lessen its identity with
hot-button social issues and
sharpen its emphasis on tax
and spending matters.
Portman announced Friday that he now supports gay
marriage, linking his stand to
learning that one of his sons
is gay.
A former U.S. trade representative and White House
budget chief, Portman is seen
as one of the party’s most
knowledgeable and effective
leaders. Mitt Romney con-

sidered him to be his running
mate last year. Portman says
he told Romney of his son
Will’s sexuality but does not
believe it affected Romney’s
decision.
As a U.S. House member
in 1996, Portman supported
the Defense of Marriage Act,
or DOMA. It defines marriage as between a man and
a woman and bars federal
recognition of same-sex marriage.
Portman’s reversal makes
him the only Senate Republican to openly back gay marriage.
“I have come to believe that
if two people are prepared to
make a lifetime commitment
to love and care for each other in good times and in bad,
the government shouldn’t
deny them the opportunity to
get married,” Portman wrote
in an op-ed article in The Columbus Dispatch.

RedStorm takes series opener from Shawnee State
Randy Payton
Special to OVP

CHILLICOTHE, Ohio — The
University of Rio Grande parlayed a quick start offensively
and a solid pitching performance from senior starter Ryan
Robertson into a 9-5 win over
rival Shawnee State University,
Thursday night, in Mid-South
Conference baseball action at VA
Memorial Stadium.
Rio Grande, which snapped a
four-game losing streak against

Shawnee State dating back to the
2011 season, improved to 15-12
overall and 3-6 in the MSC with
its fourth straight win.
Shawnee State slipped to 1413 overall and 3-4 in league play
with the loss.
Rio scored twice in the opening inning and four times in
second against Shawnee starter
Zak Esposito before adding three
more runs in the fifth to take a
9-1 lead.
Robertson (3-3), a left-hander,
checked the Bears on just three

hits and the one run through the
first seven innings before tiring
in the eighth.
Shawnee made things a bit
more respectable down the
stretch, adding three hits and
three runs against Robertson in
the eighth and two hits and a
run against junior reliever Dylan
Perego in the ninth.
Rio Grande took the lead in
the first when sophomore Grant
Tamane reached on a one-out
single, senior Shane Spies followed with a double and, one out

later, sophomore Kyle Findley
dumped an opposite field single
into shallow left to score both
runners and make it 2-0.
The RedStorm tacked on four
more runs in the second to push
their advantage to 6-0.
Sophomore Tyler Donaldson
led off with a single to left, stole
second and rode home on a single up the middle by senior Zach
Dumler.
One out later, senior Kyle Perez reached on an infield single
and Tamane followed with a dou-

ble to right to make it 4-0. Spies
was then intentionally walked
to load the bases and freshman
Chris Ford followed with a fielder’s choice grounder to shortstop
which scored Perez.
On the same play, a throwing
error on the relay trying to double up allowed sophomore Ethan
Abell, who was courtesy running
for Tamane, to score the fourth
run of the inning.
The Bears got on the board

first half of Friday afternoon’s OHSAA Division IV state
semifinal in Columbus. Pictured below is Eastern junior
Maddie Rigsby shooting over a pair of Lady Hawks in the
second half of the game. Hiland went on to defeat the
Lady Eagles 54-51 to earn a berth in the state final.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Even in defeat, the Lady Eagles proved that they belong.
The Eastern girls basketball team had its historical
2012-13 season come to a close Friday afternoon following a heartbreaking 54-51 setback to Berlin Hiland in a
Division IV state semifinal contest at Value City Arena
on the campus of the Ohio State University in Franklin
County.
The Lady Eagles (23-5) battled through eight ties and
18 lead changes throughout the course of the 32-minute
affair, as EHS led for more than half of the contest while
also claiming the the biggest lead of each half.
The Lady Hawks, however, made their biggest charge
of the night when things seemed to be at their worst, as
the guests rallied back from an eight-point third quarter
deficit with a 37-26 surge over the final 13:46 of regulation to secure the one-possession triumph.
Hiland (26-3) — which never trailed in the final 3:43
of regulation — advances to the program’s 10th state
championship game Saturday afternoon when it battles
Fort Loramie (26-3) for the Division IV state crown at
5:15 p.m. The seventh-ranked Lady Redskins defeated
top-ranked Ottoville (27-1) by a 49-42 margin in overtime in the other D-4 state semifinal.
For HHS coach Dave Schlabach — who will be aiming for his fifth state title in 22 years on the Lady Hawks
sideline — it was a classic example of surviving and
advancing in postseason play. He was praiseful of his
opponent afterwards, which made the final outcome all
the more rewarding.
“We had to claw our way back and show a lot of
toughness. Their supporting cast shot the ball a lot better than we anticipated, so we knew we were in for a
great challenge right from the start,” Schlabach said.
“In the end, I thought it came down to our depth and
our defensive pressure. We’re real proud of our group
because we showed a lot of pride and determination.
“Eastern was a physical challenge for us. They were
here for a reason … they have a very good team.”
After the game, fifth-year EHS frontman John Burdette was equally praiseful of both his kids and his
adversaries from Hiland. He had hoped for a different

RIO GRANDE, Ohio -— After
failing to maintain a lead late in the
first game of its doubleheader with
the University of Pikeville, the University of Rio Grande made an early
advantage in game two stand up and
the RedStorm recorded a split with
the Bears, Thursday afternoon, in
Mid-South Conference action at Rio
Softball Park.
Sophomore Jessi Robinson had
three hits and drove in two runs,
while senior Katie Fuller went 2-for4 with two RBIs and senior Kaylee
Walk added a pair of hits and three
runs scored to fuel a 6-2 game two
win for Rio.
In game one, Pikeville scored five
times in the seventh inning of the
opener to rally for a 7-6 win.
Rio Grande finished the day at 2-6
overall and 2-4 in the MSC, while the
Bears moved to 3-6 overall and 3-3 in
league play.
Pikeville committed three errors
in the nightcap which resulted in all
but two of the RedStorm’s runs being
unearned.
Rio took a 1-0 first inning lead
against UPike starter Courtney Pat-

rick when Walk reached on an error,
stole second, moved to third on a
single by Robinson and scored on a
base hit by Fuller.
Robinson and Fuller added runscoring hits in the third and freshman Kim Rollins added a sacrifice fly
in the third inning to make it 4-0.
Freshman Kimber Hazlett tacked
on an RBI single in the fifth and Walk
scored after opening the sixth with a
triple on a single by Robinson.
The Bears avoided a shutout on a
two-out, two-run single in the seventh by Courtney Morgan.
Hazlett allowed five hits and two
runs in a complete game performance in the circle, striking out
three and walking one.
Sophomore Haley Gwin also had
two hits in the win for Rio Grande.
Patrick suffered her first loss in
two decisions for the Bears, allowing
11 hits and a walk in six innings.
In the opening game, the RedStorm spotted their guests an early
2-0 lead before reeling off six straight
runs to take control.
Courtney Morgan had a two-run
single for UPike in the top of the
second, but Rio rallied for four runs
in the bottom half of the frame on a
two-run double by freshman Claudia

Farney and a two-run single by Robinson.
Gwin added a two-run single in
the home sixth to give the RedStorm
a 6-2 lead and set the stage for the
Bears’ seventh inning comeback.
Morgan opened the inning with a
walk and, one out later, took second
on a passed ball. Brandi Jo Howard
drew a walk and Logan Cline was hit
by a pitch to load the bases.
Hollie Hinkle was then hit by a
pitch to force in a run, Emily Castle
had an infield single to plate another
run and Kayla Morgan followed with
a two-run single to tie the game. Jordyn Hale singled moments later to
plate the go-ahead run.
Rio put runners at first and second
in the bottom of the seventh, but
Kayla Morgan retired the next three
batters routinely to seal the victory.
Castle finished 4-for-4 in the win,
while Kayla Morgan and Courtney
Morgan both had two hits and two
RBIs.
Walk went 3-for-5, while Fuller, Hazlett and Gwin added two hits each
in the loss for the RedStorm.

outcome, but also noted that his
troops were thankful for such a
rare opportunity.
“I thought both teams played
well and that’s the way a state
semifinal is supposed to be. I just
wish we had been on the other end
of it,” Burdette said. “Both teams
played great, and this was probably
the first game that we had been the
underdog in … and we came out
with no jitters.
“It’s a credit to our girls. We’ve
played in some big games this
year against some tough competition, and it paid off. I mean, there
are 200 schools wishing they were
here right now.”
Eastern — which became the
first Southeast District state qualifier in Division IV history — wasted little time proving its worth, as
the hosts hit their first three shots
of the game to secure a 9-3 cushion
in the opening 2:18 of the game.
The Lady Hawks rallied back to
within a point (9-8) with 3:51 left
in the first canto, but EHS closed
the period with a 4-2 spurt to secure a 13-10 edge.
HHS managed to tie the contest at 13 after Regina Hochstetler
capped a 3-0 run at the 6:53 mark
of the second, but the Lady Eagles
received consecutive baskets from
Katie Keller and Jenna Burdette
over the next 1:31 for a 17-13 cushion.
Jasmine Goings and Burdette
traded baskets for a 19-15 contest
at the 2:51 mark, and Hochstetler
closed the first half scoring out
with a basket with 46 seconds left
— allowing Eastern to claim a 1917 advantage headed into the intermission.
The Lady Eagles were fortunate
to have a lead at the break, as the
hosts committed a dozen turnovers
in the first half — compared to just
five by Hiland. EHS was 7-of-19
from the field in the first two stanzas, while the Lady Hawks made

just 5-of-23 shot attempts before
halftime.
Eastern opened the second half
with a 6-0 surge to claim the largest
lead of the night at 25-17 with 6:31
left in the third quarter. Burdette
netted a pair of baskets around an
Erin Swatzel field goal to establish
that eight-point cushion.
At that point, Hiland had to go
to work — and that is exactly what
the four-time state champion did.
The Lady Hawks responded
with a 10-0 run over the next 1:40,
allowing the guests to secure their
first lead since the opening minute
of regulation at 27-25 with 4:50 left
in the canto. EHS countered with a
Maddie Rigsby bucket at the 4:30
mark to knot things up at 27-all,
which started an exchange of six
leads and two ties over the next
three-plus minutes.
Tied at 35-all, Savannah Hawley
converted a basket with 31 seconds
left in the third period — which allowed the Lady Eagles to claim a
37-35 edge headed into the finale.
There were four lead changes
and two ties in the first three minutes of the final period, and Jordan
Parker netted a pair of free throws
at the 5:01 mark to reclaim Eastern’s final lead of the night at 44-43.
Maddie Rigsby extended that edge
out to 46-43 with 4:35 remaining,
but EHS then went scoreless over
the next 2:25 of the contest.
Jasmine Goings sank a pair of
free throws with 3:43 left to give
HHS a 47-46 advantage, then
Hochstetler sank two freebies and
Goings added a basket at the 2:18
mark — giving Hiland its largest
lead of the night at 51-46.
The Lady Eagles countered
with a Parker basket and both a
free throw and basket by Burdette
to knot things up at 51-all with
1:21 left in regulation. EHS was
never closer and ultimately didn’t
score the rest of the way.
Hochstetler hit a bucket with 58
seconds remaining to give Hiland

a permanent lead at 53-51, then
sank a free throw for a three-point
cushion with 28.7 seconds left.
Eastern — which missed a few
scoring opportunities during that
stretch — caught a big break with
13.8 ticks left in the game after
Goings missed a pair of freebies
that would have all but iced the
game. Eastern grabbed the rebound, dribbled to midcourt and
called timeout — giving the hosts
one last chance to knot things up.
The Lady Eagles, however,
missed their big chance after the
team’s 20th turnover of the night
came back to haunt them, as an errant pass by Jenna Burdette ended
up going out of bounds with one
second left on the clock.
Hiland successfully inbounded
the ball on its ensuing possession,
the time quickly elapsed and Eastern’s inaugural run to the state
tournament was over — all in the
span of a blink of the eye.
Hiland — which finished the
year ranked second in the AP poll
— committed only two turnovers
in the second half and finished the
night with seven total miscues.
The guests were also limited to
18-of-53 shooting overall for 34
percent, including a 4-of-13 effort
from three-point range for 31 percent.
Regina Hochstetler paced HHS
with a game-high 24 points, 17
of which came in the pivotal second half. Kendra Schlabach and
Jasmine Goings were next with
nine points apiece, while Jenica
Schrock added four markers to
the winning cause.
Megan Beachy and Sasha Goings each contributed three
points, while Natalie Nickol
rounded out the scoring with two
markers. Hiland was 14-of-23 at
the charity stripe for 61 percent.
Eastern made 21-of-45 field goal
attempts for 47 percent, including
a 4-of-17 effort from three-point
range for 24 percent. The hosts

outrebounded the Lady Hawks by
a 38-27 overall margin, but Hiland
claimed an 11-8 edge on the offensive glass.
Jenna Burdette led the Lady
Eagles with 20 points and a gamehigh 11 rebounds, followed by Jordan Parker with 18 points. Savannah Hawley and Maddie Rigsby
respectively added five and four
markers, while Erin Swatzel and
Katie Keller rounded out the scoring with two points apiece.
The Lady Eagles — who finished the season ranked 10th in
the final AP poll — will have four
starters and seven of their nine
varsity players returning next
year, but they also have to say
goodbye to a pair of critical pieces to this year’s squad. Saturday
proved to be the final basketball
game for seniors Savannah Hawley and Tori Goble in the Green
and Gold.
John Burdette spoke about his
two seniors and the value of what
they brought to this magical season. He also wanted to express his
gratitude not only to his upperclassmen, but to his entire squad
and all of those who helped make
this year so special.
“They are a heck of a group of
kids,” Burdette said. “I’m just really proud of the girls and our community. It’s been a great feeling,
now we just have to get back here.
“My two seniors, they go at it
all the time. Tori and Savannah
are two kids that any coach would
want on their team because they
don’t quit. They played big roles
on this team and we are definitely
going to miss them.”
The Lady Eagles set a school record this winter for wins in a season
with 23, one more than the previous
mark set by the 2010-11 squad that
went 22-3 en route to reaching the
program’s first-ever regional final. It
is also the third time in the last four
years that EHS has won at least 20
games in a season.

Falcons
get Steven
Jackson;
Matt Cassel
to Vikings
Arnie Stapleton
The Associated Press

The Atlanta Falcons
replaced Michael Turner
with another proven, productive running back.
Steven Jackson, the top
running back in free agency, agreed to a three-year,
$12 million deal with the
Falcons on Thursday.
Also getting new deals
were backup quarterback
Matt Cassel in Minnesota,
pass rusher Cliff Avril in
Seattle and cornerback
Keenan Lewis in New Orleans. The New York Giants signed defensive backs
Ryan Mundy and Aaron
Ross.
And the Houston Texans
were rolling out the red carpet to make their pitch to
safety Ed Reed.
Day 3 of the NFL’s free
agency frenzy was highlighted by the 29-year-old
Jackson moving on from
St. Louis after his eighth
straight 1,000-yard season.
“I think this is a very
big signing for us,” Falcons general manager
Thomas Dimitroff told
The Associated Press. “It
continues to bolster our
offensive firepower.

Opener
From Page B1
on a two-out run-scoring
double in the third by
Calvin Sluberski, but Rio
added three runs in the
fifth thanks to a sacrifice

fly by freshman Kirk Yates,
an RBI double by Dumler
and a run-scoring pinch
single by freshman Jonathan Schob to push the
lead to 9-1.
That’s
how
things

stayed until the Shawnee
eighth when a two-out,
two-run single by Joe
Henderson and a basesloaded error allowed the
Bears to draw within 9-4.
Shawnee also loaded

the bases with one out in
the ninth against Perego,
setting the stage for a
sacrifice fly to left by
Henderson to make it 9-5.
The game ended, though,
when Colin Keim’s line

drive was picked off by
a leaping Yates at third
base for the final out.
Tamane and Donaldson
both had three hits in the
win for the RedStorm,
while Findley and Dumler

drove in two runs each.
Sluberski, Keim and
Jordan Maier all had two
hits for Shawnee State,
while Esposito suffered
his third loss in five decisions.

The Point Pleasant Knights Wrestling club traveled to Parkersburg on March 2nd and 3rd to compete in the West Virginia
Junior State Wrestling Tournament. 15 wrestlers participated in the event with six of them earning spots on the podium.
Pictured above are the participating wrestlers. Kneeling in the front, from left are Mackandle Freeman, Trevor Hunt, Ciah
Nutter, Carter Price, Colby Price and Derek Raike. Standing in the back are Mitchell Freeman, Brady Adkins, Wyatt Wilson
Coach Smith and Chris Smith. Not pictured members are Brant Wilson, Matthew Litchfield, Andrew Schoon, Parker Henderson, George Smith and Coach Henderson.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The Columbus Blue Jackets have activated defenseman John Moore off injured
reserve after he missed eight games with a shoulder injury, called up forward Sean Collins from their American
Hockey League affiliate in Springfield, Mass., and have
assigned defenseman Cody Goloubef to the AHL Falcons.
Moore has two goals and six assists in 82 career games
with the Blue Jackets. The former first-rounder, 21st
overall in the 2009 draft, has one assist in 13 games this
season.
Goloubef has appeared in 10 games with Columbus this
season, scoring his first and only NHL goal on Feb. 11 vs.
San Jose. The Blue Jackets’ second pick, 37th overall, in
the 2009 draft, Goloubef has five goals and seven assists
in 25 AHL games this season.
Collins was added to the team on emergency recall
from Springfield.
The Cornell graduate logged 25:06 of ice time and
blocked three shots in two games with Columbus earlier
this season. The 6-foot-3, 201-pound center, a seventhround pick in 2008, has seven goals and 13 assists in 53
games with the Falcons this season — his first as a professional.

First Baptist Church/OVCS Activity
Center nearing completion
Amber Gillenwater

agillenwater@civitasmedia.com

GALLIPOLIS — The
construction of the new
First Baptist Church/Ohio
Valley Christian School Activity Center has truly been
a labor of love for those
members of the church and
the school who are preparing to open the doors of the
state-of-the-art facility this
spring to the community
that they serve.
The $1.6 million, 16,500
square-foot addition to First
Baptist Church and the
school that it sponsors is
set to open in May and will
house not only a very large
youth room, a storage room
and classrooms for the use
of the church and school,
but also a large gymnasium
complete with cross-court
volleyball and basketball
practice surfaces, adjustable basketball goals, locker
rooms, a weight room and a
large concession stand.
In addition, the locker

rooms and public restrooms
in the new building will be
completely accessible during Ohio Valley Christian
School (OVCS) soccer
games, allowing for a better
experience for both players
and spectators.
According to First Baptist
Church Senior Pastor Alvis
Pollard, the construction
of the school/church activity center completes “phase
two” of their expansion —
with “phase one” being the
32,000 square-foot facility
located at 1,100 Fourth Avenue that currently houses
the school and church.
Pollard reported that he
and other officials with the
church/school are waiting
with great anticipation for
the opening of the facility on
their 20-acre site.
“We do look forward to
the public getting to use the
building,” Pollard said. “PeoPhotos by Amber Gillenwater l Daily Tribune

See WORK ‌| C2 Wednesday night.

Construction on the new First Baptist Church/OVCS activity center, located on the school/
church’s 20-acre campus at 1,100 Fourth Avenue in Gallipolis, began in August 2012 and has
been overseen by Project Manager Jim Irish and his team of Brentwood Builders of Cedarville,
Ohio.
The large youth room, located on the back portion of the new activity center, will be stateof-the-art and is just another example of First Baptist Church’s dedication to the youth of its
large congregation, according to Youth Pastor David Harkleroad.

Concrete was poured at the new activity center last fall, and, according to First Baptist Senior
Pastor Alvis Pollard, the new facility continues their commitment to all ages, as it was designed with not one step in the building — it is completely handicap accessible.

The girls’ locker rooms and adjacent boys’ locker rooms will soon be home to gear belonging
to the OVCS Defenders. Complete with showers and restrooms, the locker rooms will also be
accessible from the outside for the use of the OVCS soccer team.

Many local vendors were utilized in the construction of the $1.6 million facility that will not The support beams for the gymnasium went up quickly as has the construction of the entire

and we’ll have some open gym times for
young people, as well as adults.
“We are a ministry to the tri-county
area, and we are really looking forward
to the people of the tri-county area enjoying this facility,” he added.
Pollard reported that the completion
of the new addition really completes
the move of both the OVCS high school
and church from their former location at
Third Avenue and Locust Street in Gallipolis — the building that now houses
Elizabeth Chapel Church.
According to Patrick O’Donnell, the
school’s chief administrator, discussions
surrounding the new activity center really did began in earnest approximately
four years ago when the building at
Third and Locust was sold to Elizabeth
Chapel.
“This had been in the plan for a very
long time, but we felt that the time was
right to go ahead and build this new
facility,” O’Donnell said. “We were outgrowing the older facility. We had need
for additional Sunday school space with
the church, the school was growing —
we needed space for the school — and,
so, we just felt like that the Lord was
leading us to a place where we were
ready to build.”
Since their move to the new building
at 1,100 Fourth Avenue in Gallipolis,
O’Donnell reported that the Wednesday
night Awana youth organization through
the church, as well as the school’s daily
physical education classes have had to
be transported to the gymnasium at the
Third Avenue and Locust Street building.
“It was just getting very inconvenient
to have a split campus,” O’Donnell said.
According to Ed Swisher, a longtime member of the church who chairs
the 15-member activity center building
committee, discussions surrounding the
new building really began in May 2010,
and after a bit of searching, Brentwood
Builders of Cedarville, Ohio, was chosen
as the right company for both the design
and construction of the new building.
“What we went with is what is called
the ‘design-building process,’ we didn’t
go with the traditional method where
we go out and hire architects, do all the
planning and then hire contractors,”
Swisher said. “We wanted someone that
would turn-key and work with us so that
we have fewer problems. Through that
process, we picked Brentwood, probably, within a year and half after we got
started.”

Construction on the activity center
began in August of last year, and with
expected completion in May, the church
and school officials reported that they
hope to have an open house and dedication ceremony for the new building in
the latter part of May.
The senior pastor further reported
that while any plans for future expansion
is not on the books for now, the activity
center has been designed for a possible
“phase three” to allow for additional
growth in the future.
“The ‘phase two’ building is designed
for a ‘phase three’ addition on the Ohio
Avenue side,” Pollard said. “So, that’s
basically for our future needs — our expansion. We’d like to pay off the existing
building first, but hopefully, with God’s
timing, it should be perfect.”
The students of OVCS, who not only
hail from the First Baptist Church, but
also from churches throughout the tricounty, are more than excited to see the
new addition completed, according to
O’Donnell, and he is hopeful that this
facility will attract more athletes to their
already very successful athletic program.
‘The school is very excited about the
new gymnasium facilities. It’s going to
seat about 60 more people than our current gym does, at least. We were just a
little under 300 at the old gym and we’re
at 340 now, so we can seat about 60
more people,” O’Donnell said. “And, we
are competitive. Both of our basketball
teams went to the state final four this
year, and we have brand new facilities
for our volleyball and basketball this
year. We would love to see some athletes
come here and play with us and join the
school.”
In addition to the new gymnasium
complete with six basketball hoops, the
new activity center will also provide additional educational space on the western side of the building, according to
O’Donnell.
“There’s a lot of discussion about
how to use that [educational space],”
O’Donnell said. “Right now, it looks like
we are going to divide that up into two
big rooms. We have a Sunday school
class that is very large that needs a new
place to move, so they will be using that,
and then that also gives the school some
flexibility with two additional classrooms. So, they can help the school grow
as well.”
In addition to the large classrooms
within the activity center, the church’s
youth pastor, David Harkleroad, reported that the dedication of a large portion
of the space within the facility for a youth

room highlights the church’s dedication
to its younger members.
“It’s just a real blessing to be a part
of church that values the youth the way
they do,” Harkleroad said. “From start to
finish, the trustees, the building the committee, the whole church, have just bent
over backward to make sure that we have
everything that we need for our young
people — from pre-school to twelfth
grade.”
Harkleroad also picked up on a sentiment also discussed by Swisher, in that
the mission of the church to “preach
Christ” is thereby carried over into each
of the church’s projects, including this
one.
“I think Ed kind of nailed it also when
he said, where [the building committee]
started was with ‘we preach Christ.’”
Harkleroad said. “That is the mission
of the church, and that shines through
with everything that we do, with every
age group, and I think this building is
just going to be another way to help us
proclaim that message more clearly.”
O’Donnell also spoke of Swisher’s involvement and dedication to the project.
“We really need to highlight how well
Ed has done as the chairman of this
committee, he has given us good counsel, he has helped us build consensus.
We believe that we have the best value
for every dollar that we have spent on
the building, and he has been a big part
of that,” O’Donnell said. “We have had
overwhelming support from day one for
the building project. I just think it’s been
managed really well and there’s a great
deal of unity both within in the church
and within the school.
“We just want this whole project to be
to the glory of God,” O’Donnell continued. “We just want to see the cause of
Christ advanced in our community, and
I think the building will help us do that.”
Sunday school at First Baptist Church
begins at 9 a.m. on Sunday morning.
Regular service begins at 10 a.m. and
Sunday evening service begins at 6
p.m. Wednesday evening adult Bible
study begins at 7 p.m. and youth groups
and the Awana program, for children
through grade six, begin at 6:45 p.m. on
Wednesday.
Transportation is provided to all
church services. For more information,
call (740) 446-0374.
The Ohio Valley Christian School is
also accepting enrollment for students
in grades pre-k through twelfth grade for
the 2013-2014 school year, according to
O’Donnell. For more information visit
www.ovcs.net.

The new gymnasium at the OVCS activity center has a
total of six basketball hoops that, according to officials,
can be lowered and are designed to allow for crosscourt practices.

As seen last week, construction of the new activity center at the First Baptist Church is nearing completion.
The soon-to-be classrooms located on the western side
of the facility will be utilized by both Sunday school
classes and the Ohio Valley Christian School.

More US than Europeans drivers are on the phone
WASHINGTON (AP) —
More U.S. drivers report talking
on their cellphones behind the
wheel than their counterparts in
seven Europe countries, says a
study released Thursday by the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention.
In a survey, nearly 69 percent
of U.S. drivers said they had
talked on a cellphone while driving within the previous 30 days.
The share of European drivers
who said they chatted on their
phones ranged from 21 percent
in the United Kingdom to 59 percent in Portugal.
A larger share of U.S. drivers
also reported reading or sending text or email messages while
driving than drivers in six of the
European countries. Only Portugal’s drivers matched those in

the U.S. for this distracting habit
— 31 percent in both countries.
Spain had the smallest share of
drivers who said they texted or
emailed, 15 percent.
The study was based on online
surveys of drivers ages 18 to 64
in the U.S., Belgium, France,
Germany, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, and the United
Kingdom in 2011.
Researchers offered no explanation for why the use of
distracting mobile devices is
more common in the U.S. than
other countries. Mobile device
markets in the U.S. and Europe
are similarly saturated, making
it unlikely that the findings are
attributable to differing portions of the population owning
devices in the countries, the
study said.

It’s also unlikely that differences in local laws can fully
explain why more U.S. drivers
than European drivers say they
use their phones, the study said.
Nearly all European countries
banned hand-held cellphone use
by drivers, yet there was a large
variation in the share of drivers
reporting the use of cellphones
in the seven EU countries surveyed.
In the U.S., 39 states and
the District of Columbia have
banned texting while driving.
Ten states and the District of
Columbia have banned handheld cellphone use for all drivers. But the study’s author, CDC
epidemiologist Rebecca Naumann, said those laws haven’t
yet proven effective in decreasing these behaviors.

The study’s finding that more
than two-thirds of U.S. drivers reported cellphone use and
a third had reported texting
or emailing is consistent with
previous studies. A national
telephone survey by the AAA
Foundation for Traffic Safety
conducted in 2010 found that
69 percent of drivers had used a
cellphone while driving and 24
percent had texted while driving during the previous 30 days.
Similar estimates have been reported from surveys carried out
by the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration and the
Insurance Institute for Highway
Safety.
“To me this says we still have a
huge distracted driving problem.
It’s a cultural problem, and we
haven’t convinced the country

yet that this is a serious issue,”
said Jonathan Adkins, deputy executive director of the Governors
Highway Safety Association,
which represents state highway
safety offices.
Researchers also looked specifically at U.S. drivers and found:
—There were no significant
differences between men and
women in terms of cellphone use
or reading or sending text or email messages while driving.
—A higher percentage of 25to 44-year-old men and women
reported talking on a cellphone
while driving than those ages
55-64.
—A higher percentage of 18to 34-year-old men and women
reported reading or sending text
or e-mail messages while driving
than those ages 45-64.

Poll finds attitude shift
Comcast and other networks
among working moms
collaborate on TV binge week

WASHINGTON (AP)
— Working mothers increasingly want full-time
jobs, and tough economic
times might be a big reason, according to a national survey.
In the Pew Research
Center study being released Thursday, researchers saw a big spike in the
share of working mothers
who said they’d prefer to
work full time; 37 percent
said that was their ideal,
up from 21 percent in
2007.
The poll comes amid a
national debate on women
in the workplace ignited
by top Facebook executive Sheryl Sandberg,
who writes in a new book
about the need for women
to be more professionally
aggressive.
In “Lean In: Women,
Work, and the Will to
Lead,” Sandberg argues
that women have not
made true progress in the
workplace over the past
decade and that they need
to raise their hands more
and “lean in” if they want
to land more senior positions in corporate America.
The shift toward fulltime work in the Pew poll,
however, coincides with
the recession and may
have less to do with career
ambitions than with financial realities.
“Women aren’t necessarily evolving toward
some belief or comfort level with work,” says study
co-author Kim Parker, an
associate director at the
center. “They are also reacting to outside forces
and in this case, it is the
economy.”
Among women who said
their financial situations
aren’t sufficient to meet
basic expenses, about half
said working full time was
best for them. Of the women who said they live com-

fortably, only 31 percent
said full time was their
best situation.
Melody Armstrong, 34,
of Hampton, N.H., works
full time and says she
wouldn’t have it any other
way.
“It works better for my
family, and for our finances,” Armstrong said in an
interview. “It helps pay the
bills and we can enjoy the
lifestyle we have. We need
to have two incomes.”
Armstrong and her husband have six children
between them, a blended
family with one child off
to college and a baby
at home. She works for
Double Black Imaging, a
Colorado-based company
that sells medical monitors. Armstrong says her
company gives her the
flexibility she needs to
work her sales position
from home.
“I do some work early
in the morning or after
dinner,” Armstrong says,
and can adjust around
her children’s school and
sports schedules.
Mothers’ attitudes —
both for those who work
outside the home and
those who don’t — have
changed
significantly.
Among women with children under 18 years old,
the proportion of those
who say they would prefer to work full time has
increased from 20 percent
in 2007 to 32 percent last
year.
When all adults were
asked about working
moms, however, just 16
percent said the best situation for a young child is
to have a mother working
full time. Slightly over
40 percent said part time
was ideal, and one-third
said staying home was
best for kids.
Guiomar Ochoa, 38, of
Chevy Chase, Md., has
two young children and

works full time. She says
she’d rather work part
time but says it’s just not
an option for her family.
“We just can’t afford to
not have two full-time incomes,” Ochoa says. “We
wouldn’t be able to do it
otherwise.”
Ochoa, an international
specialist with the National Endowment for the
Arts, says she’s doing her
best to juggle her career
and caring for her children.
“I’ve done a really good
job of wearing my mom
hat when I get home and
putting everything aside
as far as work goes and
focusing on them,” said
Ochoa.
Most moms in the poll
expressed confidence as
parents. Nearly threequarters of mothers with
children under 18 said
they were doing an excellent or very good job raising their children. Fathers
were asked that question,
too, and 64 percent gave
themselves high marks.
Other findings in the
poll:
—Roughly half of working mothers and fathers
say they would rather be
home with their children
but work because they
need the income.
—Fifty-six percent of
working mothers and 50
percent of working fathers say it’s either very
or somewhat difficult for
them to balance work and
family.
—Forty percent of
working mothers with
children under 18 and
34 percent of working fathers say they always feel
rushed.
The Pew Research findings are based on a survey
of 2,511 adults nationwide
conducted Nov. 28-Dec. 5,
2012. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.2 percentage points.

NEW YORK (AP) — The nation’s
largest cable company is planning a
television “watchathon” for the last
week of March, collaborating with several television networks to make entire
series available for free on demand.
The Comcast Corp.’s plan encourages binge viewing, where people spend
hours catching up on television series
they may have missed the first time
around and serves as a grand look into
what may be the future of TV viewing.
Comcast has convinced more than
30 TV networks to make their programming available for the March 2531 promotion. More than 3,500 television episodes will be offered, said Matt
Strauss, senior vice president of digital
and emerging platforms for Comcast.
“We’re at an inflection point in how
people watch television,” he said.
Broadcast networks like ABC and
CBS generally make only the four most
recent episodes of a series available to
on demand services. For the promotion, participating networks will make
all of a season’s episodes available for
people to catch up on viewing.
Comcast customers will also have
free access to premium networks like
HBO and Showtime, which they would
normally pay extra for, during the promotion. In many cases, entire histories
of programs like “Game of Thrones,”
”Homeland” and “Girls” will be available, along with some old series like
“Sex and the City” and “The Sopranos.”
The sheer size of Comcast, which

owns NBC Universal, is what gives the
experiment its resonance. Roughly 20
percent of the nation’s television households are Comcast customers.
For the television networks, the experiment offers viewers a chance to
catch up with or get acquainted with
series they might not have followed.
Lately, series like “The Walking Dead”
are increasing in ratings in a way that
indicates many people are watching
past episodes during lulls in the series
and getting hooked.
For the premium networks, the special week might also encourage more
customers to pay for their service if
they try, and like, some series that
they might not have been exposed to,
Strauss said.
All of the programs will be available
to Comcast customers on mobile devices and tablets as well as television. The
company is encouraging greater use of
its application that allows viewing everywhere, a product that has started
more slowly than people expected.
Networks might also be encouraged to
make more of their programming available on demand if the week is successful, he said.
Networks might have been concerned about losing some of its live
audience to on-demand programming,
but the week before Easter is generally
slow with a lot of reruns being aired.
“We really see this as a collaboration where we are all partners,” Strauss
said.

First lady: Priority is ensuring ‘family is whole’
WASHINGTON (AP)
— Michelle Obama is
pushing back against
the notion that she and
President Barack Obama
don’t socialize enough in
Washington.
The first lady says in
an interview in the April
issue of Vogue magazine
that she and the president
were
straightforward
when they said — before
moving from Chicago to

Washington in 2009 —
that their family, including two young daughters,
would be their priority.
She said “the stresses
and the pressures” of
the White House are
so real that they prefer
to spend free time with
their daughters, now 14
and 11.
“Our job is, first and
foremost, to make sure
our family is whole. You

know, we have small kids;
they’re growing every
day. But I think we were
both pretty straightforward when we said, ‘Our
No. 1 priority is making sure that our family
is whole,’” Mrs. Obama
said in the interview, a
copy of which was provided to The Associated
Press before the magazine hits newsstands on
March 26.
