However, the state still needs more than $1.6 billion to finish additional phases of 35 major new expansion projects in communities throughout Ohio. “We sometimes forget how a well-maintained transportation system supports the state’s overall economy,” ODOT Director Jerry Wray said. “With more than $438 billion in goods shipped annually by trucks — the third largest of any state — a reliable transportation system is not only the lifeblood of Ohio businesses but also the catalyst for future expansion and job creation.” The 800 preservation projects include resurfacing 3,700 miles of interstate and state routes as well as repairs, upgrades, improvements and maintenance to hundreds of bridges, culverts, guardrails, inter- changes and hillsides. Currently, ODOT maintains and preserves nearly 50,000 lane miles of interstates and highways — enough to make two trips around the earth. Meigs County projects for the 2012 construction season include: • Ohio 143; slide repair, approximately one mile north of the junction of Ohio 681; estimated cost — $146,132. • Ohio 681; resurfacing, beginning near the junction of Ohio 7; estimated cost — $1 million. • Ohio 684; resurfacing, beginning at the junction of Ohio 143 in Harrisonville; estimated cost — $487,000. • Ohio 7; bridge repair, located between the junctions of Ohio 143 and U.S. 33 near Pomeroy; estimated cost — $482,000. • Ohio 124; bridge replacement, located just north of the junction of Ohio 681; estimated cost — $909,000. • Ohio 248; slide repair, near the junction of Bashan Road; estimated cost — $531,790. • Ohio 124; slide repair, approximately two miles north of the junction of Ohio 681; estimated cost — $300,000. • U.S. 33; slide repair, approximately 2.5 miles west of the William S. Ritchie Ravenswood Bridge; estimated cost — $156,433. • U.S. 33; rest area upgrade, approximately 1.5 miles south of the junction of Ohio 681; estimated cost — $109,000. • Guard rail maintenance and repair on state routes throughout Meigs County; estimated cost — $272,000. “The projects in Meigs County are proof that [ODOT] District 10 is committed to fulfilling the department’s mission by taking care of what we have, making our system work better and improving safety for the traveling public,” said Cary Betzing, ODOT District 10 Construction Engineer. ODOT is funded by state and federal motor fuel taxes. The agency’s first priority is the preservation and maintenance of its current transportation system. Any money left over goes toward constructing major new transportation projects approved by the state’s Transportation Review and Advisory Council (TRAC), a bi-partisan group responsible for approving funding Sarah Hawley (White Oak Road) at mile 4.56 to junction Township Road 256 (Landaker Road) at mile 5.39, be renumbered Township Road 238 and be known as Mohler Road. Both roads will now be maintained by the Bedford Township Trustees. The Meigs County Engineer’s Office also addressed the recent request from the Rutland Township Trustees for the vacation of two roads. Meigs County Engineer Eugene Triplett recommended that that a public viewing and hearing be held with concern to the vacation of Fetty Road (Township Road 446) and a portion of Parkinson Road (Township Road 41). A public meeting will be scheduled before moving forward with the vacation of the roads. Present at the meeting were Meigs County Commissioners Tom Anderson, Tim Ihle and Michael Bartrum, and clerk Gloria Kloes. The next meeting of the Meigs County Commissioners will be held at 1 p.m. on Thursday at the courthouse.

Giving the gift of life Charlene Hoeflich choeflich@mydailysentinel.com POMEROY — April is Organ Donation Awareness Month and Lifeline of Ohio is encouraging residents to consider giving the gift of life by registering to become a donor. One way residents commonly register for organ donation is by indicating interest when getting driver’s licenses at the Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV). When a customer communicates his wish to be an organ donor to the BMV personnel, a tiny symbol of a heart will be printed on the corner of the driver’s license. In appreciation of the work of the BMV in advising people of the opportunity to become a donor, a representative of Lifeline of Ohio has been visiting BMV agencies in central and southeastern Ohio to say “thank you”. The BMV agencies have been described as the “premier area for signing up donors.” Lauren Fitting visited Meigs County last week to thank Deputy Registrar Angie Edwards and her employees. Also for a time of appreciation, she was joined by Barbara Mathews Crow, mother of Morgan Mathews Mersy who 11 years ago had a liver transplant at the Ohio State University Medical Center. Mersy, recently married, is now on the medical staff at Dodd Hall at the Medical Center. Plans had also been made for Carolyn Korn, who received a heart transplant 17 years ago, to be present for the time of saying thanks to the BMV personnel, but an emergency situation prevented her attendance. The importance of registering to be an organ and tissue donor is shown by the latest figures for Ohio which list 3,409 on a waiting list. Last year, 209 Ohioans died waiting, 287 were organ donors at the time of their death helping 954 individuals receive a second chance at life through transplantation. 1,950 Ohioans gave improved quality of life to others through tissue donation, and Lifeline of Ohio recovered organs from 94 donors and tissue from 321 donors. Principal, Mason Co. Schools sued PPIS student, parent allege abuse Beth Sergent bsergent@heartlandpublications. com CHARLESTON — The Point Pleasant Intermediate School student who claims he was physically abused by Principal Cameron C. Moffett, 45, New Haven, has filed a civil suit, along with his mother, against Moffett and the Mason County Board of Education in U.S. District Court. The suit was brought forth by 11-year old Zachary Plants and his mother, Melanie Plants of Point Pleasant. The suit was filed on Thursday of last week and this weekend videos taken from the school bus where the abuse incident allegedly began went viral on the Internet. The Charleston Gazette was one of the first media outlets to upload the video which it obtained from the Plants’ attorney, Michael Clifford of Charleston. The video shows a busload of students preparing to depart for a field trip in March when it appears Zachary is not in his seat but on the floor. The lawsuit states the boy was seated before being pushed in the aisle by other students and in the video the bus driver appears to make a statement to a supervisor about Zachary being pushed out. The video then shows this supervisor, who is standing next to the bus driver, ask Zachary “What is wrong?” At one point, the bus driver also appears to go back to talk to Zachary in the video. The suit says a supervisor asked if the boy was okay and if he wanted to move to which the boy responded no. The video then shows Moffett entering the bus where he stands at the front of the vehicle and twice asks Zachary to come to him without success. Moffett then goes down the aisle, stopping at what appears to be Zachary’s seat. At some point, Moffett asks the supervisor at the front of the bus to empty the bus of all students in front of he and Zachary. On the video, Moffett then appears to be speaking with Zachary who gets up and moves down the aisle but then stops about two rows from the front of the bus and sits down in a now empty seat. Moffett directs Zachary to stand up and continue to exit the bus, but Zachary doesn’t comply and this is when the video shows Moffett actually touching the student.

Roads transferred to the township were County Road 231, also known as Carr Road, and County Road 14, also known as White Oak Road. The first resolution approved concerns Carr Road. Carr Road, now known as Township Road 231 — Carr Road, begins at the junction with County Road 238 (Elk Run Road) and goes northeast for a distance of .62 miles to the Bedford/Orange Township line. The second resolution reads, County Road 14 (White Oak Road) from the junction with County Road 18 (Kingsbury Road) at mile 4.41 to junction of Township Road 145 (White Oak Road) at mile 4.56 be renumbered Township Road 145, but shall continue to be known as White Oak Road and that County Road 14 (White Oak Road) from junction Township Road 145 Informational meeting on injection wells, waste disposal set Sentinel Staff Report mdsnews@mydailysentinel.com ATHENS — Three speakers will address local and Ohio injection wells and disposal of toxic liquid waste from high pressure horizontal hydrofracking at a meeting to be held from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. on April 25 at the Mitchell Auditorium (Seigfred Hall) Ohio University, Athens. Co-sponsors for the meeting are the Ohio University Institute for Applied and Professional Ethics and the Athens County Fracking Action Network. The presentation and question and answer session will provide education on issues affecting our local area and all of Ohio. Dr. Natalie Kruse, hydrogeochemical engineer at Ohio University with over 15 years of experience in reclamation, monitoring and water quality assessment of abandoned coal mines, will describe what injection wells look like underground and how they relate to our watershed, including the possible pathways of contamination when injection wells are used to dispose of this waste. Elisa Young, presently working as a paralegal and with years of experience on extraction issues, including permitting processes and appeals with the EPA and ODNR, will present an opinion on the status of injection wells and their permitting in southeastern Ohio counties. Teresa Mills, Ohio organizer and representative for the Center for Health, Environment and Justice, will discuss regulations, construction and political issues affecting injection wells in Ohio and strategies for mitigating risks. There are 192 injection wells permitted in Ohio, and it was reported that Mills will talk on underground waste disposal and regulations. Mills’ contention is that the best way to prevent Ohio from being a dumping grounds is to challenge the authority by which it is happening. According to Mills, her interest is in protecting our drinking water and to encourage regulations toward that end. �Wednesday, April 18, 2012 www.mydailysentinel.com The Daily Sentinel • Page 2 URG/RGCC Madog Faculty Local stocks Fellow presentation planned Tribune Staff Report mdtnews@mydailytribune.com RIO GRANDE — The Madog Center for Welsh Studies at the University of Rio Grande/ Rio Grande Community College will host a special presentation by faculty member Heather Duda, Ph.D., on Friday, April 20. Duda, who is an assistant professor of English at Rio Grande, is the 2011-2012 Madog Faculty Fellow. On Friday, April 20, she will present her research findings from her time serving as the Madog Faculty Fellow. The event, which is free and open to the public, will begin at 3:30 p.m. in Room 111 in Bob Evans Farms Hall on the Rio Grande campus. “We’re very excited about her presentation,” said Jeanne Jones Jindra, director of the Madog Center for Welsh Studies. Duda is an outstanding speaker, a published author and an award-winning faculty member at Rio Grande. Her presentation, “An Assassin, A Baker, and An Inept Newspaper Maker: An American Explores the Welsh Film Industry,” promises to be an entertaining and fascinating discussion of her research. Duda explained that her research subject involves several different aspects. “How can a country whose media is controlled by another country ever hope to establish an independent film identity? This is the question that has focused my Madog Fellow research this year,” Duda said. “What started out as a project about language and filmmaking in Wales has become a two-part examination of the Welsh film industry in general.” The first part of her study focused on the formulation of the Welsh cultural identity. “For the last decade, Welsh critics have struggled with the issue of whether or not there is a clear Welsh cultural identity and, if so, is this identity being reflected in theater, film, and television,” she explained. The second part of her study focused on the struggle of a small, independent film industry within a larger, “Hollywoodized” global film economy. “If Welsh filmmakers can, indeed, construct a distinct Welsh identity, will those films reach the global audience, or are international film distributors only releasing films that follow a Hollywood formula?,” Duda asked as part of her project. Her presentation will discuss at these issues and others, and will be an interesting look at the Welsh culture. Duda will also be presenting her research later this year in Bangor, Wales, at the North American Association for the Study of Welsh Culture and History’s International Conference on Welsh Studies,. She is proud to be presenting her work first to the audience at Rio Grande, where she is the ninth Madog Faculty Fellow. Jindra and many others on campus are also anxious to hear what Duda has to say during her remarks. “The Madog Faculty Fellow presentation is one my favorite events of the year,” Jindra said. The Madog Faculty Fellow program allows one Rio Grande faculty member each year to spend a year conducting research and presenting findings related to Welsh heritage and Welsh culture. Past Madog Faculty Fellows, for example, have given presentations on topics such as Welsh music, fine woodworking, and evening tombstones. One Madog Faculty Fellow even put together an artistic presentation that featured images of famous Welsh figures. The presentations are always lively and informative, and shed new light on different aspects of Welsh culture and history. Each Madog Faculty Fellow presents his or her research findings at the end of the academic year, and then the research papers are kept on file at the Madog Center for Welsh Studies. Past research projects have also been submitted to other Welsh cultural festivals, conferences and centers, just as Duda’s paper has already been accepted for the North American Association for the Study of Welsh Culture and History’s International Conference in Bangor, Wales. For more information on the Madog Faculty Fellow presentation on Friday, April 20, or for more information on the Madog Center for Welsh Studies, call Jeanne Jones Jindra at 1-800-282-7201.

Plants, out of the seat, forced him to the bus floor and pushed and shoved him down the bus aisle and down the school bus steps where the plaintiff (Zachary) landed face down onto the school sidewalk, causing injury to his face and arm. Once outside the bus, the defendant (Moffett) proceeded to place his knee on the back of the plaintiff (Zachary) and refused to allow him to get up.” In addition to claiming Moffett used excessive force given the situation, the lawsuit also states the Mason County Board of Education failed to adequately train, supervise and discipline Moffett. The suit says the board of education failed to advise and educate Moffett as to the Individual Education Plan (IEP) for Zachary Plants and training as to control over IEP based students. An IEP student is typically one who has special needs and though the suit identifies Zachary as being under an IEP, it doesn’t specify what this IEP addresses. The suit also claims the board of education failed to intervene to control Moffett and failed to take punitive actions against the students who were bullying Zachary on the vehicle and pushed him to the floor of the vehicle. Zachary Plants and his mother are asking for damages in an amount to be determined at trial, including compensatory and punitive damages. Robert C. Chambers is the presiding judge in the civil case. Moffett, who was arrested on a felony child abuse charge by the Point Pleasant Police Department has been released on a $20,000 property bond. He has a preliminary hearing set for 9:30 a.m., April 23 in Mason County Magistrate Court. The hearing will determine if there is, or is not, probable cause to send the case on to further proceedings in Mason County Circuit Court. Last week several of Moffett’s PPIS colleagues attended a Mason County Board of Education meeting in what appeared to be a show of solidarity for the man who is no longer leading their school though remains an employee of the board of education. Last week, Mason County Schools Superintendent Suzanne Dickens told the Point Pleasant Register Moffett remained principal but was working at an “offschool site.” Since then, an unnamed source has told the Point Pleasant Register Moffett is working at the county bus garage. Projects From Page 1 for the State’s largest transportation projects. In January, ODOT announced a $1.6 billion shortfall needed to complete future phases of 35 major new expansion projects through 2018. However, ODOT anticipates having only $100 million per year to spend on new construction after all preservation needs are met. In 2011, the TRAC received 72 applications for new transportation projects totaling an additional $10 billion. Since then, the agency has announced plans to seek innovative and alternative funding sources to help ease the financial crunch. On top of reducing agency costs and improving efficiency, ODOT plans to pursue the commercialization of non-interstate rest areas and seek sponsorship and naming rights for certain infrastructure projects saving $100 to 200 million annually. Billions more could be generated or saved by leveraging state-owned assets — like the Ohio Turnpike — and exploring public, private partnerships.

From Page 1 The Daily Sentinel • Page 3 www.mydailysentinel.com �The Daily Sentinel Opinion Page 4 Wednesday, April 18, 2012 The GOP: A Don’t wait for Social Security check in the mail party in flux Stephen Ohlemacher Associated Press Dr. Mark W. Hendrickson With Rick Santorum having dropped out of the race, Mitt Romney is apparently the Republican nominee for POTUS, barring a “black swan” event swooping down out of nowhere. Why has the Republican Party taken so long to decide upon its presidential nominee? The two most common explanations given have been the structure of the primaries and the absence of an “ideal” candidate. Those are valid reasons, but there is one more that generally has been overlooked: The Republican Party itself is in a state of flux, and its new identity has not yet gelled. The Tea Party message of smaller government has been dominant in the GOP primaries. However, even though the old guard, moderate, country club, establishment—choose whichever cliché you prefer—wing of the party was eclipsed in the nominating process, it remains a formidable force in Washington. This was evident in the recent Senate vote on repealing all subsidies to all private energy companies (conventional and renewable): 19 Republicans voted with every single Democrat against abolishing the subsidies. Also, the very fact that the most conservative budget proposal put forth in Congress by Paul Ryan (R-Wis.)—a plan that, while obviously superior to the Obama alternative, will increase federal spending and debt—shows the present limits of the Tea Party’s influence. The Republican Party may indeed be evolving into a truly conservative party, but the transformation is far from complete. Many rankand-file Republicans have been becoming more conservative at different rates, so it is not surprising that the candidates struggled to find the “sweet spot” where one could establish himself as the ideal 2012 Republican. Although many Republicans were dismayed and disheartened as the primary race dragged on, there is an excellent chance that this sense of malaise will quickly dissipate now that the race is essentially over. The bickering between the candidates was unpleasant and cast a pall over the nominating process, but that was a passing phenomenon that will soon be forgotten. Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum, and Newt Gingrich took turns pointing out each other’s past flirtations with interventionist government, while trying to outdo each other in professing to repent of those earlier missteps and emerging as the one genuine, born-again, true-blue conservative. Ron Paul, meanwhile, who remained un-nominate-able due to his noninterventionist foreign policy (and perhaps even his uncompromising free-market principles), must feel vindicated that his three opponents (in some cases) staked out positions much closer to his consistent, constitutionalist, limited-government philosophy than would have been conceivable four years ago. The Republican program in 2012 became clear even before Romney emerged as the standard-bearer. The last four men in the primary race—Romney, Paul, Gingrich and Santorum—all agreed: The federal government is too big, the country is in deep trouble, and the presidency of Barack Obama has been disastrous. All four advocated less federal involvement in education, effective control of national borders, lower taxes, fewer bureaucracies, repealing Obamacare, greater freedom to develop domestic energy The Daily Sentinel Reader Services Correction Policy Our main concern in all stories is to be accurate.

Their personalities, pasts, and priorities had different flavors, but their philosophies were of the same general type. The presidential election campaign will generate far more enthusiasm among Republicans than the primary race did, because voters will now have a clearcut choice between Republican ice cream or another helping of Barack Obama’s spinach. Barack Obama has already laid the groundwork for a very challenging economic environment in 2013. Whoever is president will have to cope with a bruising debtceiling battle, the scheduled expiration of the Bush tax cuts, a weak job market, unresolved systemic problems with Social Security and Medicare, a badly deteriorated power grid, and degraded military capabilities—not to mention possible complications resulting from Obama’s feckless foreign policy. Frankly, I don’t think there is a person on earth who is completely prepared for all the challenges that will confront us during the next four years. I am convinced, though, that if Romney is elected, he will devote himself unreservedly to trying to solve those problems, while Obama would just make them worse. Tea Partiers, moderate Republicans, independents, and anyone else hoping for a change of direction in our country, can either unite behind Mitt Romney or concede defeat to Barack Obama. That is the choice before us. Dr. Mark W. Hendrickson is an adjunct faculty member, economist, and fellow for economic and social policy with The Center for Vision & Values at Grove City College. WASHINGTON (AP) — Starting next year, the check will no longer be in the mail for millions of people who receive Social Security and other government benefits. The federal government, which issues 73 million payments a month, is phasing out paper checks for all benefit programs, requiring people to get payments electronically, either through direct deposit or a debit card for those without a bank account. The changes will affect people who get Social Security, veterans’ benefits, railroad pensions and federal disability payments. Tax refunds are exempt, but the Internal Revenue Service encourages taxpayers to get refunds electronically by processing those refunds faster than paper checks. About 90 percent of people who receive federal benefits already get their payments electronically, the Treasury Department says. New beneficiaries were required to get payments electronically starting last year, and with a few exceptions, the rest will have to make the switch by March 2013. “It’s just that natural progression of moving to how people are used to receiving their funds,” said Walt Henderson, director of the Treasury Department’s electronic funds transfer division. Henderson said electronic payments are safer and more efficient than paper checks; in 2010, more than 540,000 federal benefit checks were reported lost or stolen. The switch will save the government about $120 million a year. Social Security will save $1 billion over the next decade, according to the Treasury Department. “You think of that paper check floating out there in the delivery system, with personal information on it, it’s much more susceptible to fraud versus an electronic payment,” Henderson said. Advocates for seniors say Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

The food stamp program switched from paper coupons to debit cards in 2004. But they have raised concerns about requiring the switch for older retirees who may not be used to electronic payments. “This will affect some very frail elderly people who are living by themselves, many of them, and doing well, but usually within the context of that old paper check that they deposit in the bank,” said Web Phillips, a senior policy advisor for the National Committee to Protect Social Security and Medicare. “The change has to be handled carefully and with a lot of sensitivity so that there aren’t people who lose track of a payment or don’t understand that they have a card that came in the mail that’s the source of their payment,” Phillips said. “That’s our concern.” The switch is mandated by a Treasury rule issued in December 2010. Since then, the department has worked to educate the public. The government has created a website, www.GoDirect.org and a toll-free phone number, 1-800-333-1795, people can call for assistance. “Treasury acknowledges they have a lot of education to do for people about how these things work,” said David Certner, legislative policy director for AARP. “We’re a bit concerned about how easy it’s going to be to provide education, particularly for some in this older population who are not familiar with debit cards and don’t have bank accounts.” Certner said AARP wants the government to make it easier to get an exemption. Under the Treasury rule, current beneficiaries who are 90 and older won’t be required to make the switch. People can get a waiver if using a debit card would impose a hardship, but the Treasury Department says those would be “extreme, rare circumstances.” These waivers are not well publicized on the government’s website. “There are several million people who receive paper checks today,” Certner said. “Some of them do it because they have worked out arrangements for them that work.” AARP also has concerns about fees associated with the debit cards. The Direct Express cards are issued by Comerica Bank, Treasury’s financial agent. Each month, benefit payments are added to the cards, which can be used to make purchases or withdraw cash from ATMs. There are no fees for using the debit card to make purchases. They can be used at any retailer that accepts MasterCard debit cards. If a card is lost or stolen, the beneficiary is protected from unauthorized use as long as the missing card is reported promptly. Cardholders can make one free ATM withdrawal each time a payment is registered in the card. Subsequent withdrawals will cost 90 cents each, and all withdrawals may be subject to fees by the owner of the ATM. The government’s switch to electronic payments also comes with a side effect: less business for the U.S. Postal Service, an agency that is already facing big budget problems with the rise of email and electronic bill paying. The private sector has been migrating to electronic payments for years, costing the Postal Service millions of customers, said Alan Robinson, editor of the Postal Journal, a trade publication. “Normally, these things happen one customer at a time,” Robinson said. “In terms of payments, this is probably one of the largest.” The Daily Sentinel Ohio Valley Publishing Co. 111 Court Street Pomeroy, Ohio Phone (740) 992-2156 Fax (740) 992-2157 www.mydailysentinel.com Sammy M.

The Blue Angels got on the scoreboard first with a run in the top of the first put ten it seemed to be a pitching duel. GAHS scored one in the top of the fourth inning to go up 2-0. Fairland put up three runs in the home half of the fifth and added one more in the sixth to take the 4-2 lead. The Blue Angels pushed across two runs in the seventh to tie the game and keep hope alive. In the home half of the 10th Kerie Napier hit a line drive to center field to score the winning run and give the Lady Dragons the victory. Heather Ward received the loss while striking out nine batters. Chandler Fulks received the win for the Lady Dragons and she struck out 14 batters. Heather Ward and Megan Cochran led GAHS with two hits apiece in the contest while Rachel Morris and Brittany Lloyd each had one hit. Chloe Stanley led Fairland with three hits on the night.

The Ironmen answered with three runs on four hits in the home half of the inning and led 5-1.

Call The Daily Sentinel 740.992.2155 The Daily Sentinel • Page 10 www.mydailysentinel.com Tigers sweep URG baseball Randy Payton Special to OVP GEORGETOWN, Ky. — Georgetown College made it a “Senior Day” to remember on Sunday afternoon, limiting the University of Rio Grande to just one run and five hits in both ends of a doubleheader and completing a weekend series sweep of the RedStorm in Mid-South Conference baseball action at Robert N. Wilson Field. The Tigers used a three-run fourth inning in the opener to fuel a 5-1 win, while a two-run rally in the bottom of the sixth produced a 3-1 triumph in the back end of the twinbill. Georgetown, which was ranked 18th in the most recent NAIA coaches poll, improved to 37-8 overall and 15-5 in the MSC with the sweep. Rio Grande dropped to 25-21 overall and 5-12 in league play. The RedStorm have lost six straight – all inside the conference – since moving a season-high 10 games over the .500 mark after sweeping a pair of games from Salem International on April 3. Georgetown grabbed a 1-0 in game one thanks to a first inning RBI single by E.J. Murray, but it was the threerun fourth which gave the Tigers all the cushion they would need. A single, a walk and an errored bunt attempt loaded the bases with no outs before Tanner Baldwin followed with a runscoring hit and Chris Wood added a two-run single. Baldwin added an RBI hit in the home half of the eighth to make it 5-0, while Rio avoided a shutout thanks to a two-out RBI single in the ninth by freshman Kyle Findley. Junior Ryan Robertson started and took the loss for the RedStorm, allowing eight hits and three walks over seven innings on the hill. Findley had two of the team’s five hits. Wood finished 3-for-5 for the Tigers, while Baldwin and David Higuera each had two hits. Chase Ballinger pitched into the ninth inning, allowing just three hits and a pair of walks to earn the win for GC. In game two, Georgetown snapped a scoreless tie on Dylan Grandon’s two-out RBI single in the third inning before Rio Grande rallied to tie the score at 1-1 in the sixth. Junior Shane Spies scored freshman pinch-runner Tyler Donaldson, who had stolen second base after coming on to run for junior Vince Perry after he’d opened the inning with a single off of Georgetown starter Jason McGinnis. The RedStorm’s comeback effort was quickly erased, though, in the bottom of the frame. After the first two batters were routinely retired by sophomore reliever David Steele, Taylor Payne reached on a two-out single to left and was replaced by pinch-runner T.C. Oneal. Wood followed with a single to left which sent Oneal to third, but a throwing error trying to retire Wood as he attempted to take second base on the throw in from the outfield was wild and both runners scored. Rio junior Kyle Perez drew a twoout walk in the seventh to bring the tying run to the plate, but Tiger reliever Trey LaVera induced freshman Grant Tamane to ground into a game-ending force play at second. No RedStorm player had multiple hits, although Findley and freshman Tim Easterling both had doubles in the loss. Steele took the loss, although both of the runs he allowed were unearned. Chad Richie earned the win in relief for Georgetown after earning a save in Saturday’s series-opening win. LaVera was credited with a save for the Tigers, who managed just four hits of their own offensively. URG track fairs well in Tennessee Randy Payton Special to OVP KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – Given an opportunity to show their collective wares against NCAA Division I competition, the University of Rio Grande’s 4x800 meter relay teams certainly didn’t disappoint. Both the women and men established new school records during last Saturday’s Sea Ray Invitational, which was hosted by the University of Tennessee. The women’s team set a new school mark for the fourth time this year and took sixth place overall with a time of 9:23.82. The record-setting performance also easily surpassed the “A” standard of 9:28.00 needed to qualify for the NAIA National Championship, which will take place May 24-26 at Indiana Wesleyan University in Marion, IN. The squad, which included senior Kayla Renner, senior Kayla Graves, freshman Samantha Barnes and senior Cassie Mattia broke the previous school-best time of 9:28.20, which was set during the Shamrock Invitational last month at Coastal Carolina University. Graves joined the foursome last weekend after a regular member of the quartet – junior Amy Lower (Lancaster, OH) – was side- lined by injury. The men’s team, which was comprised of senior Matt Spencer, juniors Chad McCarty and Nick Wilson and freshman Dustin Moritz, placed fifth overall and set a new school-best mark with a finish of 7:53.75. They bettered the old record of 7:54.00, which was set in 1994 by Scott Wenger, Chad Benson, Marc Michigan and Chris Smith. Saturday’s time was just under five seconds slower than the mark needed to qualify for the national championship. However, like their female counterparts, the men’s team was also running with a lineup it nor- mally wouldn’t have used. Junior Joe Taranto did not make the trip due because of an illness. “I thought the kids ran really well against some really strong competition,” Rio head coach Bob Willey said. “We know that we can get faster, though. That’s what we’re working toward.” The two relay teams were the only Rio Grande representatives at the event. The entire RedStorm team will return to action on Friday at the Eastern Kentucky Open hosted by Eastern Kentucky University in Richmond, Ky. Urbana got on the scoreboard in the fifth thanks to a two-out run-scoring single by Brooke Shultz, but the RedStorm blew the game wide open with six runs in the sixth against Urbana reliever Chelsea Mead – all unearned and all after the first two batters had been retired. Freshman Maegen Pendleton began the rally with a double and moved to third when junior Kaylee Walk’s bunt attempt was errored. A fielder’s choice on freshman Jessi Robinson’s dribbler in front of the plate brought home Pendleton and junior Katie Fuller followed with an RBI single to center to make it 5-1. Sargent drew a walk to load the bases before Hurst laced a two-run double to center to stretch the lead to 7-1. Junior Kaitie Stewart and freshman Haley Gwin also had run-scoring hits in the frame before all was said and done. The Blue Knights set the final score in the home sixth on a one-out solo home run by Megan Risner. In addition to Hurst, Fuller and Pendleton finished with two hits each in the win. Senior Allison Mills earned her eighth win in 13 decisions inside the pitcher’s circle, allowing just five hits and a pair of walks in a complete game effort. Shultz had two of the five Urbana hits, while Haley Kolmerten started and suffered the loss. Game two saw the Blue Knights (13-19) take a 1-0 first inning lead on a single by Ashley Skinner and never look back. Back-to-back two-run innings followed, with a three-run fifth bringing the contest to a premature end. Risner hit a solo home run and Amber Beeman squeezed home another marker with a bunt in the second inning, while Carly Ivan pulled off a steal of home and Heather Martin plated a run with a single in the third to make it 5-0 in favor of the home team. Urbana finished things off in the fifth by scoring three times with two outs. Skinner had a two-run, basesloaded single and, after infield hit by Heather Hakola re-loaded the bases, Risner hit a shot which cleared the head of Gwin in center field to bring home the gamewinner. Rio Grande was limited to just five hits, two of which belonged to Walk. Freshman Sydney Morris started and took the loss, allowing 12 hits and walking six in 4-2/3 innings. All eight of the runs she allowed were earned. Skinner had two hits and three RBIs in the win, while Risner had two hits and two runs batted in. Hakola, Martin and Alyssa Maag also finished with two hits each for Urbana. Lauren Anderson picked up just her fourth win in 14 decisions with the five-hit shutout. She walked one and struck out eight. Rio Grande is scheduled to return to action on Wednesday, traveling to Riverside High School in Quincy, W.Va. for a doubleheader with West Virginia University Tech. The two teams divided a pair of games on March 18 at Rio Softball Park, both by scores of 3-2. First pitch for Wednesday’s opener is set for 3 p.m. URG softball splits with Urbana Randy Payton Special to OVP URBANA, Ohio — Allison Hurst homered and drove in four runs to lead the University of Rio Grande in an opening game win over Urbana, but the Blue Knights rebounded for an easy win in the nightcap and a split with the RedStorm, Sunday afternoon, in a non-conference softball doubleheader between former America Mideast Conference rivals. Hurst had key hits in each of Rio’s two scoring innings in a 9-2 opening game win, while Urbana had back-toback two-run innings and a three-run fifth inning en route to a mercy rule-shortened 8-0 victory in the back end of the twinbill. The split left the RedStorm with an overall mark of 19-16. In game one, Rio grabbed a 3-0 first inning lead thanks to a two-out RBI double by senior Nicole Sargent and a two-run home run to left by Hurst – the second longball in as many games for the freshman from Fairfield, Ohio. Latest NFL concussion suit cites Saints’ bounties ATLANTA (AP) — Four former players have filed the latest lawsuit claiming the NFL didn’t properly protect its players from concussions, citing the bounties paid to New Orleans Saints players for hard hits as just the most recent evidence of the league’s violent culture. The lawsuit, filed Monday in state court in Atlanta, said the Saints’ payfor-pain system was another example the league “explicitly relied on violence” and neglected to educate players on the dangers of concussions. The NFL’s investigation found that former Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams offered thousands of dollars in cash payouts for violent hits over the past three seasons. Ex-players Myron Guyton, Lomas Brown, Jessie Small and Willie Whitehead do not claim in their lawsuit to be victims of Williams’ bounty system but cite it as the latest example of a culture that has left former players with debilitating conditions. “There is nothing new or unique about what Gregg Williams said. Although the NFL has now punished Williams and the Saints, for almost its entire history the NFL glorified violent hits,” said the complaint. “It encouraged its players to think of themselves as gladiators. But, along the way, the NFL failed to educate its players about the consequences of such a win-at-all costs mentality.” NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said any allegation that the league intentionally sought to mislead players is meritless. “It stands in contrast to the league’s actions to better protect players and advance the science and medical understanding of the management and treatment of concussions,” he said. Guyton played for the New York Giants and New England Patriots in the 1980s and 1990s; Brown played for five teams over a 17-year career that ended in 2002; Small played for the Philadelphia Eagles, the Phoenix Cardinals and the Houston Oilers between 1989 and 1993; and Whitehead played for the San Francisco 49ers and New Orleans Saints from 1995 to 2006. Atlanta attorney and NFL agent Von DuBose filed the lawsuit on behalf the four players and their wives. He said the men suffer from memory loss, headaches, depression and other symptoms characteristic of those with traumatic brain injuries. They are among more than 1,000 former NFL players suing the league, according to lawyers involved. The cases say not enough was done to inform players about the dangers of concussions in the past, and not enough is done to take care of them today. “I’ve been hearing this stuff for years. And it instantly made sense when this concussion information started to come out,” said DuBose. “The dots started to connect.” Gabe Feldman, a sports law professor at Tulane University, said the reference to the bounty system could help plaintiffs paint a picture of the sport as “not only violent but unnecessarily violent.” And though he doubts the new claim will be a “game changer,” he still expects more lawsuits to cite the scandal. “It certainly could be persuasive in the eyes of a jury,” he said. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
