Tom Anderson Home loans available Meigs, Gallia eligible for road repair funds Staff report By Charlene Hoeflich mdsnews@mydailysentinel.com choeflich@mydailysentinel.com POMEROY — Both Meigs and Gallia Counties are included in the list of 45 Ohio counties eligible to receive new federal resources to help repair roads and bridges damaged by spring rains, according to a release from U. S. Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) Monday. Brown said that the Ohio Department of Transportation has been awarded fiscal year Federal Highway Administration resources to improve federal infrastructure following storminduced damages across Ohio from March to May. “Ohio residents and businesses hit hard by storm-related damage will have additional support to rebuild – and recover from – damaged local roads and bridges,” Brown said. “Ohioans rely on a sound transportation infrastructure to move goods and services and travel to their destinations. These new resources will help local communities make the repairs needed to keep moving Ohioans and Ohiomade goods along safe federal highways.” According to the release from Brown, ODOT will receive $89,751,296 to make the major repairs needed to restore various project sites to their prestorm and landside conditions throughout Ohio. A formal emergency declaration was made following heavy rainfall and serious landslides during March 2011. The counties in southeastern Ohio receive aid in addition to Meigs and Gallia are Athens, Jackson, Lawrence, Hocking, Morgan, Noble, Perry Pike, Ross, Scioto, Vinton and Washington.

By Charlene Hoeflich choeflich@mydailysentinel.com POMEROY — Here they come! Meigs County Girl Scouts are out everywhere knocking on doors and taking orders for cookies. They do it every year to raise money for the scouting program. The girls began taking orders for cookies on Friday, and the sale will continue through Feb. 3. There are eight kinds of cookies to select from, several of which are sure to satisfy every taste preference. So whether your favorite is Samoas, Trefoils, Thin Mints, Tagalongs, Do-SiDos, Dulce De Leche, Thank U Berry Munch or a soon to be favorite – Savannah Smiles, they’re on the list to be ordered now and delivered in late February or early March. The price is the same as last year, $3.50 a box and the payment is made when delivered. Once the cookies are in and delivered, the scouts will have a celebration. It’s then that the scouts who sell the most boxes of Girl Scout cookies are recognized. Cookies will be delivered in late February or early March, with Girl Scouts selling extra cookies after they are delivered. MARIETTA — Applications for funding lowincome rural residents interested in becoming homeowners are now available through the Marietta office of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Rural Development which will soon receive its Fiscal Year 2012 annual allocation through the Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act. Rural Development assists many families in acquiring their own home through its Direct Loan Program. The program offers 100 percent financing, 33-year term, 3.25 percent fixed-interest rates, and can be used to purchase, repair or build homes to meet the needs of the household. Payment Assistance can temporarily lower the interest rate to one percent, and is available to borrowers who qualify based on income. The effect is a lower monthly out-of-pocket cost for the mortgage payment, which is more affordable for the household in terms of monthly cash flow. The loan program ensures applicants have access to safe, well-built, affordable homes. The applicant chooses the home they wish to purchase with the assistance of a local realtor, or they can locate a property directly from a seller. Most counties encompassing the Marietta service are eligible, but some areas are restricted from participation due to population. The Rural Development (RD) Area Office can assist prospective home buyers having questions as to whether a property is located in an eligible area. Interested applicants must have a stable source of income, a satisfactory credit history, and have responsibly managed their other debt.

See ROUNDUP ‌| Page 6 Steelers still reeling after stunning OT loss PITTSBURGH (AP) — Mike Tomlin wouldn’t change a thing. Probably. The Pittsburgh Steelers coach said Monday he’d defend Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow the same way if given another chance, even after Tebow burned the defending AFC champions for an 80-yard touchdown pass on the first play of overtime to lift Denver to a stunning 29-23 victory. “Obviously they made some nice plays on us and in hindsight you would analyze it, but your options are limited in terms of how you attack them,” Tomlin said. The Steelers crowded the line of scrimmage and dared Tebow to beat the NFL’s top-ranked defense with his sometimes erratic left arm. Tebow obliged by throwing for 316 yards and a pair of long touchdowns, including the dart Demaryius Thomas turned into the quickest overtime score in NFL playoff history. “They made a nice football play,” Tomlin said. One that sent the Steelers into what could be an eventful offseason sooner than they hoped. A year after falling just short in the Super Bowl, the Steelers went 12-5 despite a rash of injuries affecting every position. Even if Pittsburgh had somehow prevailed in Denver, there’s no telling how many healthy bodies would have been left to play on Saturday night in New England. Left tackle Max Starks and nose tackle Casey Hampton both sustained knee injuries that could require surgery. Defensive end Brett Keisel’s groin acted up and linebacker LaMarr Woodley’s strained right hamstring remains balky more than two months after tweaking it. Those injuries don’t include quarterback Ben Roethlisberger’s sprained left ankle, safety Troy Polamalu’s tender right calf or center Doug Legursky’s aching left shoulder. The Steelers were hardly at 100 percent Sunday. Then again, they haven’t really been all season. From a season-opening 35-7 beatdown at rival Baltimore, Pittsburgh spent the entire year catching up. “I just feel like we left a lot (to be desired) this year as a whole,” said safety Ryan Clark, who didn’t play in Denver due to a sickle-cell trait that makes it dangerous for him to play at high elevation. “To turn around on the sideline and see Keisel standing there in a jacket, to see Hampton standing there in a jacket, it’s a lot to overcome.” Still, the Steelers nearly did it behind Roethlisberger. Playing on basically one leg, Roethlisberger led a 14-point rally that included a spectacular 31-yard touchdown pass to Jerricho Cotchery with 3:48 remaining in the fourth quarter. Pittsburgh had one last chance to win in regulation, moving within the extreme fringe of field goal range before going backward. Tomlin said he thought kicker Shaun Suisham could make it from about 55 yards, meaning the Steelers needed to reach the Denver 38. They got as close as the Denver 45 before Roethlisberger had the ball knocked out of his hands by Denver’s Elvis Dumervil. The first playoff game in which the league’s revised overtime rules came into effect was designed to provide the Steelers with Cincinnati shortstop Barry Larkin grimaces as he runs for third base on a single by Sean Casey in the second inning of his team’s game against the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday, May 13, 2003 at Busch Stadium. Barry Larkin elected to baseball Hall of Fame NEW YORK (AP) — Barry Larkin has been elected to baseball’s Hall of Fame. The former Cincinnati Reds shortstop received 495 votes (86 percent) in balloting announced Monday by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America, well above the necessary 75 percent. Larkin was on the ballot for the third time after falling 75 votes short last year. He will be inducted July 22 in Cooperstown along with the late Ron Santo, elected last month by the Veterans Committee. “It’s just amazing,” Larkin said in an interview on MLB Network. “Last year I just started to smell it a little bit. The first year I didn’t even think it was fathomable, to be quite honest.” two nights ago,” Larkin said on MLB Network, recounting how it felt Monday to receive the phone call informing him of his election. “It was absolutely an unbelievable experience. I felt like it was almost an out-of-body experience.” Mark McGwire, 10th on the career home run list with 583, received 19.5 percent in his sixth try on the ballot, down from 19.8 percent last year and 23.7 percent in 2010 a vote before he admitted using steroids and human growth hormone.

OVP Schedule Jack Morris was next with 382 votes (67 percent), missing by 48 votes on his 13th try but up sharply from 54 percent last year. The pitcher has two chances left on the BBWAA ballot. Playing from 1986-04, Larkin hit .295 with 198 home runs, 960 RBIs, 2,340 hits and 379 stolen bases. He won the 1995 NL MVP award, three Gold Gloves and the 1990 World Series. In 1996, he became the first shortstop to have 30 homers and 30 steals in a season. Jeff Bagwell was third at 56 percent, followed by Lee Smith (51 percent), Tim Raines (49 percent), Alan Trammell (37 percent) and Edgar Martinez (37 percent). “I didn’t lose much sleep until Morrison-Fountain, a junior guard from Columbus, Ohio playing in just her fourth game after recently having her eligibility approved by the NAIA Clearinghouse, was making her first start of the season thanks to a knee injury suffered by freshman guard Liz Badgett in Thursday’s loss. Referred to as “NikNik” by her teammates, Morrison-Fountain scored 15 of her points in the opening half - including a trio of threepointers on her first three shots of the day - to help the RedStorm close the stanza on a 22-7 run and transform a 25-15 deficit into a 37-32 lead at the intermission. “Nik did a nice job today, but she’s still trying to work her way into our system,” Smalley said. “We were 0-for-15 from three-point range the other night, but she came out and hit the first three shots she took today. The first one she took was so far out that it wasn’t the shot we wanted but, when it went in, we were on the bench saying ‘That’s what we’re looking for’. She got us going. We’re going to have to have more of that from her and Shar (senior guard Sharnise Morris) at the point with Liz out of the lineup.” Helton and Hammond carried the bulk of the load after the break for Rio Grande, which saw its five-point halftime lead wither into a 60-48 deficit after a jumper by Lindsey Wilson’s Jasmine Brimm with 7:57 remaining in regulation. Hammond, a sophomore guard from Greenfield, Ohio, proceeded to nail back-to-back three pointers on Rio’s next two possessions to slice the deficit in half and kickstart a 16-4 run which culminated with a pair of Morrison-Fountain free throws that tied the game at 64-all with 1:58 left. Brimm connected again to send the Blue Raiders (12-4, 2-2) back in front with 1:35 to play, but the RedStorm finally regained the lead on two more free throws by Morrison-Fountain with 47.5 seconds left and extended their advantage to 69-66 on a pair of free throws by Helton with 24.1 seconds remaining. Helton, a senior guard from Lucasville, Ohio, scored 10 of her points in the second half, including an 8-for-8 showing at the free throw line. Lindsey Wilson forced overtime when Brimm drained a game-tying three-pointer with 9.0 seconds left and Morris missed a would-be gamewinner for Rio just before the buzzer, but the extra session belonged almost entirely to the RedStorm.

Sara Bailey and Jasmyne Johnson both contributed six points apiece, while Caitlin Watson and Meghan Caldwell respectively added five and four markers. Alicia Hornsby rounded out the scoring with two points. South Gallia was 22- of-60 from the field for 37 percent, including an 0-for-4 effort from threepoint range. The hosts were also 11-of-12 at the charity stripe for 92 percent. Bostic also hauled in a team-best nine rebounds for SGHS, which grabbed 27 caroms in the triumph. Kalli Hund and Hannah Maynard both paced SVHS with six points each, followed by Megan Johnson with four markers. The Lady Vikings were 4-of-8 at the charity stripe for 50 percent. *** A 14-9 third quarter charge ultimately proved to be too much for the Gallia Academy girls basketball team to overcome Saturday night following a 32-31 setback to visiting Chillicothe in a Southeastern Ohio Athletic League matchup in Gallia County. The host Blue Angels (2-10, 0-5 SEOAL) jumped out to a small 7-4 edge after eight minutes of play, but the Lady Cavaliers (6- 4, 2-3) retaliated with a 9-7 spurt in the second canto to pull within 14-13 at the intermission. CHS made its big run of the night in the pivotal third stanza, as Mindy Williams scored six points to lead the guests on a 14-9 surge — giving the Lady Cavs a 27-23 lead headed into the finale. GAHS closed regulation with an 8-5 spurt, but came up one possession short of pulling out the decision. The Blue Angels con- nected on 13-of-49 field goal attempts for 27 percent, including an 0-for-5 effort from three-point territory. The hosts also had 34 rebounds, 12 steals and six assists to go along with 25 turnovers. Heather Ward led GAHS with a game-high 12 points, followed by Mattie Lanham with six markers. Halley Barnes and Kendra Barnes both added four points, while Haley Rosier and Ciera Jackson rounded out the respective scoring with previous 24 first downs. Not this time, providing wild-card weekend with a wild finish for the ages. Taylor was nearly inconsolable afterward, the backbone of the league’s best pass defense fighting back tears while taking sole responsibility for the loss. Tomlin and Taylor’s teammates, however, would have none of it. “Such is life,” Tomlin said. “We’ve got a great deal of respect for Ike and what he’s willing to do for us.” Taylor will get a chance at redemption next season after signing a four-year contract in the preseason. So will Polamalu and Woodley, who both agreed to extensions before the regular season kicked off. They’re among the few certainties on a still formidable but aging defense that started seven players in their 30s on Sunday. Tomlin allowed that “change is a part of this thing” but the Steelers will do what they can to keep the core group together. There are fewer questions on offense, though the unit underperformed at times, finishing 22nd in the league in points per game. Roethlisberger played through thumb and foot injuries behind an offensive line that didn’t find any cohesion until the second half of the season. “We feel like we really have great potential to be a really good offense,” Roethlisberger said. “I told a lot of guys that. We can be great, we just have to put in the work in the offseason. A lot of that’s going to fall on me. We’re young.” Almost. Veteran wide receiver Hines Ward will turn 36 in the offseason and though he’s under contract for two more years, he’s coming off a season in which made just 46 receptions, the fewest since his rookie year in 1998. He shot down speculation he may retire and won’t address anything until the shock wears off. “To end it like that in overtime, to go 12-4 and have it come down to an overtime loss the way it did is sad,” he said. “This will stick with (us) a lot as one of the worst games we ever lost.” Denver quarterback Tim Tebow celebrates with fans at the end of the Broncos’ AFC wild-card game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Sunday at Sports Authority Field at Mile High in Denver, Colorado. The Broncos won, 29-23 overtime. ballot for the first time in 2010. He received the largest single-year percentage increase to gain election since 1948, when pitcher Herb Pennock was elected with 77.7 percent, a year after finishing with 53.4 percent. Larkin is the 48th Hall of Famer who spent his entire career with one major league team and the third from the Reds, joining Johnny Bench and Bid McPhee. Larkin broadcast for MLB Network from 200910, then moved to ESPN last year. He’s a spring training instructor for the Reds, and has gone to South Korea and Brazil as an envoy for Major League Baseball and the State Department. Rafael Palmeiro, among just four players with 500 homers and 3,000 hits along with Hank Aaron, Willie Mays and Eddie Murray, got 72 votes and his percentage increased to 12.6 from 11 last year in his first appearance. He received a 10-day suspension in 2005 for a positive test for performance-enhancing drugs, claiming it was due to a vitamin vial given to him by teammate Miguel Tejada. Gonzalez, a two-time AL MVP implicated by Jose Canseco in steroids use, received 30 votes last year, just above the 5 percent threshold for remaining on the ballot. In 2014, the focus will turn to elite pitchers when Greg Maddux (355 wins) and Tom Glavine (305) become eligible. Among pitchers eligible for the Hall, all 20 of the 300game winners are in. Morris finished with 254 victories and was the winningest pitcher of the 1980s. A postseason star, he was the ace of three World Series winners but is burdened by a 3.90 career ERA. 4-for-4 from the field in the overtime, while Lindsey Wilson went 0-for-7, including 0-for-6 from beyond the three-point arc. “It’s a funny game that way, sometimes,” Smalley said. “Lindsey’s very athletic on the perimeter and hard to guard, but I thought we forced them into some tough shots. We did the little things we had to do to win. We hit our free throws and we hit some threes - when we hit threes, the dynamic of our team changes completely.” M o r r i s o n - Fo u n t a i n added a team-high five assists and five steals to the winning effort for Rio, while sophomore center Brooke Shaw pulled down seven rebounds and Hammond finished with six boards. Monny Niamke scored 17 points to lead Lindsey Wilson, while Ashley Rainey also had 17 points and a game-high 14 rebounds. Sarah Gillis added a season-high 15 points off the bench for the Blue Raiders, while Brimm finished with 14.

Gallia Academy was 5-of10 at the free throw line for 50 percent, including 0-for2 in the fourth quarter. Rosier hauled in a teamhigh 10 rebounds in the setback. Alyssa Oates paced CHS with 10 points, followed by Williams with nine points and Jenna Holton with eight markers. The Lady Cavs were 7-of-10 at the charity stripe for 70 percent, including a 1-for-2 effort down the stretch. Steelers From Page 4 at least one shot in the extra session but only if the Broncos kicked a field goal after winning the coin toss and getting the ball. It never happened after Thomas slipped past cornerback Ike Taylor then outraced Taylor and backup safety Ryan Mundy to the end zone. Just like that, Pittsburgh’s hopes for a ninth Super Bowl trip were gone. Tomlin had no problems with the defensive play call, an inverted zone that called for Mundy and Polamalu to crowd the line of scrimmage to stop the run. The odds certainly seemed to be in Pittsburgh’s favor. The Broncos ran the ball on 23 of their Fame From Page 4 ture years, along with Juan Gonzalez (23) and Vinny Castilla (six).
