Vallance, 63 50 cents daily WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 3, 2012 Vol. 62, No. 166 DJFS revises handbook, plans for training Sarah Hawley shawley@heartlandpublications.com POMEROY — The Meigs County Commissioners approved several agenda items during their recent meeting. Director of Meigs County Job and Family Services Chris Shank spoke to the commissioners concerning a revised handbook for DJFS. Shank said that this is the first revisions put in place since 2003. The commissioners unanimously approved the handbook as presented by Shank. Shank also requested permis- sion for the department to be closed on Dec. 7 for the annual inservice training. Racine Village property owner David McKenzie spoke with the commissioners about the proposed demolition of a home he owns in the village. McKenzie told commissioners the house had been abandoned for several years, but he is now working on it and does not want it torn down. McKenzie stated that he had previously spoken with the mayor, council and the grants office. The proposed demolition is part of the Neighborhood Revitalization Grant. He went on to state that someone, presumably an inspector, broke into the house to check for asbestos in the wall. McKenzie said that there were holes in the walls from this. Commissioner Tim Ihle said that the property had been tentatively removed from the demolition list while McKenzie works with Racine Mayor Scott Hill concerning the property. A request from the Scipio Township Trustees for concerning the vacating of an existing right-ofway in the Dudley Addition (Pageville), approximately 33 feet by 297.2 feet of DeCamp Street, lo- cated between College Street and Half Street was referred to the Meigs County Engineer. A bituminous bid was also referred to the engineer. Minutes of last weeks meeting were approved, along with the bills. Bills totaled $127,648.09, with $7,095.51 from county general. During the previous meeting, commissioners approved an appropriation adjustment in the amount of $10,000 into A106A04, Housing Prisoners, Sheriff. Shank spoke with the commissioners about available funds through FEMA for the June wind- storm. Funds awarded to DJFS are being handled by the Local Area Workforce Investment Board. Workers eligible must have lost their jobs or homes due to the disaster, or qualify as returning veterans, dislocated workers, of long term unemployed individuals. According to Shank, 65 to 70 jobs will be created for a period of six months. Present at the meeting were commissioners Tom Anderson, Tim Ihle, and Mike Bartrum, clerk Gloria Kloes, commissioner candidates Randy Hart and Randy Smith, and David McKenzie.

They just may come true,” said Mike Sharp after writing the lyrics to “Touch ‘Em All,” which was set to music by Erwin Musper, performed by One Horse, a Cincinnati-based band, given a visual life on video by Cam Miller, and premiered on July 29 at the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame. For Sharp it was a dream come true. He said baseball had always been a big part of his life. “I remember in tee-ball I would hit the ball and not stop running ‘til I “touched ‘em all,” he said. He began coaching tee-ball in 1972 at the age of 12, and it was that year that his father took him to Cincinnati and Riverfront Stadium to see his first major league baseball game. “I walked down close to the dugout, and Johnny Bench signed my See SHARP |‌ 2 “One Horse” performed Sharp’s song after it was set to music. Submitted photo INDIAN LAKE, N.Y. (AP) — A whitewater rafting guide was apparently drunk when a 53-year-old Ohio woman fell out of his raft and drowned during an outing on an Adirondack Mountain river, authorities said Friday. Rory Fay, 37, of North Creek was charged with criminally negligent homicide in the death of Tamara Blake of Columbus while rafting Thursday morning on the Indian River in Hamilton County, state police said. Blake was born in Gallia County, and her father resides in Meigs County. Capt. John Tibbitts said Blake, Fay and Richard Clar, also 53 and from Columbus, were thrown into the water when the raft hit some rapids about 20 minutes after starting their excursion around 10 a.m. at Indian Lake, 80 miles northwest of Albany. Clar was able to cling to the raft and steer it to the river bank while Fay swam to shore, Tibbitts said. Clar walked to a road near the river and flagged down a car, which took him to the state police barracks in Indian Lake, Tibbitts said. A search was launched for Blake, and her body was later found five miles downstream in the Hudson River. The Indian River flows into the upper Hudson at the Hamilton-Essex county line.

She had a big heart, was a good Christian person and was just kind — kind to everyone,” David Ball said of his late wife, Betsy Ball, during the second day of trial in the case against the man accused in her murder. “She just tried to enjoy life and tried to make other enjoy life also,” he said. “You couldn’t beat her. She was one-of-a-kind.” Ball was the first witness called to the stand by the prosecution on Tuesday in the Gallia County Court of Common Pleas. Ball discussed what he observed the day of his wife’s disappearance on February 29 and the days following. Lee A. Hawkins, 48, Bidwell, stands accused in the murder of Betsy Ball, 67, and is being charged with aggravated murder, murder, tampering with evidence and the gross abuse of a corpse. The body of Ball, who died as a result of apparent strangulation, was later raped and was found on March 1 in a field in a rural area just off of Piper Road near the Village of Vinton — in an area approximately five miles from her residence on Wilder Road. David Ball, who had been married to his late wife for just shy of 25 years at the time of her death, reported that he had worked a double shift at his place of employment, Kyger Creek Power Plant, on February 29 — leaving home during the morning hours and did not return until approximately 12 a.m. that night. Upon questioning, Ball stated that he had called the defendant, his then farm hand, to tend to chores on his farm while he was away working that day — a phone call he commonly made to Hawkins on days when he worked double shifts. Ball reported that on days when he worked over, Hawkins would normally handle any feeding or evening chores that needed to be completed. Ball stated that when he returned home, he noticed several small things out of ordinary at his home on Wilder Road, including several items uncharacteristically moved inside the garage and the next day’s sandwiches — typically made by his wife in the evening — not waiting in the refrigerator. “These questions hit your mind, but you kind of answer them. I thought, ‘well, maybe she’s got to get up early in the morning and take one of the grandkids to the doctor or the dentist,’” he said. After observing this, Ball stated that he began searching the entire house for his wife and then the exterior areas — calling a neighbor See TRIAL ‌| 2 �Wednesday, October 3, 2012 The Daily Sentinel • Page 2 www.mydailysentinel.com Quiz topic: Dealing with financial infidelity Of all the secrets for if financial fidelity husbands and wives is suspected. keep from one anTRUE ( ) FALSE other, perhaps the () most damaging out5.

Even if one partner does all or most of the earning, the couple should have shared goals and transparency about where salaries are going each month, plus the intention to examine regular credit reports together. 2. FALSE. Unfortunately, it is the lack of open and honest discussion about money that often leads to money troubles and divorce. A recent survey by Self magazine and Today.com revealed that 46 percent of people have lied to their partner about money, and between 63 percent and 70 percent of men and women think financial infidelity is as destructive to a relationship as cheating. With those statistics, it’s no wonder money problems are among the biggest causes of divorce. 3. TRUE. Women are nearly 50 percent more likely than men to hide purchases from their partners, destroy receipts or pass off new items as something they already owned. Both sexes hide things for a basic reason: More than a third of men and women who don’t disclose purchases do so because they know their spouse won’t approve. 4. TRUE. Some of the red flags signaling financial deceit include one partner refusing to discuss joint financial goals, opening bills before the other partner can see them, holding secret credit cards, making major purchases without discussing them, refusing to talk about finances and borrowing from personal accounts or outside sources without disclosing it. 5. TRUE. The more that can be put on the table before marriage, the better. Couples should disclose college loans or other long-term debts, any previous bankruptcies and other money issues. They should agree on broad and specific financial goals and credit issues. Adjusting to a new marriage is difficult, but financial secrets and lies are a sure way to get off on the wrong foot. 6. FALSE. There are several different ways in which people become accustomed to dealing with finances, mostly due to how they were raised or how their parents modeled financial decisionmaking as they were growing up. Spenders don’t like money to burn a hole in their pocket, but they can be converted into savers if they have a goal. Excessive savers can be characterized as hoarders — often they have plenty of funds but are loathe to spend any. People with different styles can learn to work together if transparency is in play. 7. FALSE. When salaries are very lopsided or one spouse doesn’t have any income, the risk for financial infidelity is high if the wage earner takes over all the finances because he or she is the one making the money. This often leaves the non-earner depending on handouts instead of being an equal partner in financial decisions, and can lead to both partners hiding or hoarding money. 8. TRUE. There are Internet software programs that can help with budgeting and tracking expenditures. Many TV and radio shows include how to handle finances, and can spark topics; or couples can take classes together to prepare for the financial side of marriage. If you answered six of the eight questions correctly, you are unlikely to be blindsided by financial infidelity. Rafting From Page 1 Tibbitts said Blake, Fay and Clar were outfitted in wet suits, helmets and life jackets. It wasn’t known yet how Blake died. An autopsy was scheduled Friday at Adirondack Medical Center in Saranac Lake. Officers who spoke with Fay determined he was intoxicated while guiding the raft, Tibbitts said, adding that toxicology results that would confirm he’d been drinking weren’t yet available Friday afternoon. Fay was being held in the Hamilton County jail on $50,000 bail. A message left with his lawyer, Allen Day of Johnstown, wasn’t immediately returned. Troopers said Fay is a licensed guide employed by the Hudson River Rafting Co., based in North Creek in Warren County. The company’s website says it has been offering whitewater rafting excursions since 1979. It operates on the upper Hudson, Black, Moose and Sacandaga rivers. Messages left Friday afternoon at the company’s offices weren’t immediately returned. Rafting guides are licensed in New York by the state Department of Environmental Conservation. The agency said Fay has a valid DEC guides license for rafting on the Indian and upper Hudson rivers. In 2010, the Hamilton County district attorney’s office charged the company’s owner, Patrick Cunningham, and another of his guides with reckless endangerment after some of their customers said they were sent on whitewater trips without licensed guides. District Attorney Marsha Purdue said she couldn’t comment on that case because it was still pending. A complete obituary for Blake appears in today’s edition of The Daily Sentinel. Sharp From Page 1 ball. From that moment on, Johnny Bench was my favorite ball player,” said Sharp. He said that now he has the joy of passing on his love of the game to his two daughters, Maria and Hannah. It was after a tee-ball game that he sat down and wrote the lyrics to “Touch ‘Em All” while watching a Reds game. “I wanted to write a feel good story about how even major league players once played tee-ball, and even they were once a child that needed help to get to where they are today,” he said. “I started thinking about my dad, grandpa, uncle, coaches and teachers. We all have been helped by so many people along the way. We’ve all struck out many times in life, but we grab the bat the next time up and swing again. You never know, you just might hit a home run.” And with that said Sharp’s song, “Touch ‘Em All” is his dream come true. He credits the music producer, the band and the video producer for seeing that the lyrics he wrote got where they needed to go. Sharp attended Ohio University where he studied journalism and worked as a sports writer for his hometown Ironton Tribune from 1973-1982. He then went to the St. Mary’s Hospital School of Radiology in Huntington, W. Va. and has worked as a X-Ray/Cat Scan Technologist at various hospitals in four states over the last 30 years. For the past 15 years he has worked in the Radiology Department at O’Bleness Memorial Hospital in Athens. He and his wife, Pam, and their two daughters live near Tuppers Plains. Ed Sharp Trial From Page 1 to bring a spotlight to search the grounds. When he was unable to locate his wife, Ball stated that he then contacted law enforcement to aid in the search. Betsy Ball’s body was found later that afternoon by a Gallia County Sheriff’s Deputy on a farm located on Piper Road — land, according to testimony, that belonged to the victim’s son, Matt Stepp. According to Ball, Hawkins, who had worked previously for the Ball family in the 1990s and had returned to work for them approximately five years ago, reportedly continued to work for David Ball in the days that followed his wife’s disappearance and the subsequent discovery of her body. “I believe it was the second day after her disappearance when he came up to the house,” Ball said. “I stepped out on the porch and was talking to him, and he put his arm up around my shoulder and told me that he was really sorry, and he couldn’t see why anyone would do something like that to a good person like Betsy was.” Ball further stated that Hawkins did not admit to him any involvement in his wife’s death. Upon cross examination by defense attorney Barbara Wallen, Ball reported that it was not usual for his wife to leave the house of her own accord. Ball also told Wallen that Hawkins was consistent with his work on the farm. Also to testify on Tuesday was Forensic Pathologist and Deputy Montgomery County Coroner Robert Shott, M.D. Shott testified on his findings upon examining the body of Betsy Ball after an autopsy was ordered to be performed by Gallia County Coroner. According to Shott, after he began the examination of the victim’s body, he immediately observed several exterior injuries on the body — the most visible of which were a “furrow” around the victim’s neck, a large open incision on her right wrist, hexagonshaped marks across her cheek and a large open incision across her lower abdomen, among other smaller injuries. Shott discussed the “furrow” found on Ball’s neck at length, stating that the quarter-inch mark was most likely caused by a rope, wire or other item that may have been used to bind the victim’s neck. In addition, the coroner explained that small hemorrhages found in the victim’s eyelids, bruising on the victim’s trachea were both signs of strangulation; while a fracture on the “C-shaped” hyoid bone found in the throat was a more specific sign of manual strangulation, or strangulation done a the hands of another person. Shott also discussed the hexagon-shaped marks on the victim’s face — which testimony would later clarify as wounds developed after Ball’s body was run over with a vehicle after he death — as well as the incisions on her abdomen and wrist — incisions most likely around the time of Ball’s death by a sharp-edged weapon. Upon cross examination, Shott could not identify, with any specificity, the type of weapon or sharp-edged instrument used to make the incisions on Ball’s wrist and abdomen. The Gallia County Coroner Daniel Whiteley, M.D., was the next witness called by the prosecution to testify. Whiteley reported that he was called to the scene where Betsy Ball’s body was found during the late morning or early afternoon of March 1, and, upon observing the body, concluded that the time of death had been more than 10 hours prior to his observations. Whiteley further discussed the injuries sustained to the victim’s neck and his observations of the victim’s body. According to Whiteley, the completely horizontal “furrow” found on the victim’s neck would not be consistent with the markings typically found on individuals who die as a result of a hanging. “This isn’t a hanging. If this were a hanging, then the ‘furrow’ — what you see going horizontally around the neck — would go up to a point where the person is being hung,” Whiteley said. “She didn’t do this to herself. It wasn’t an accident.” Whiteley further explained that, while there is was no way to be completely certain, it was his estimation that Ball had been killed at approximately 8:30-9 p.m. on February 29. Her cause of death, according to the coroner, was asphyxiation due to strangulation and the manner of death was homicide. Upon cross examination, Wallen asked the coroner, who had previously stated that he believed that the victim’s death had occurred at her residence on Wilder Road and not in the field where her body was found, if he could make that statement with any degree of medical certainty. Whiteley did admit that this assumption was based on his own observations, however, upon further questioning by Assistant Prosecutor Eric Mulford, Whiteley discussed the factors he relied upon in concluding that Ball had been killed at her home. “I don’t know how you could transport her out there [to the field], basically, unless she were disabled. I think that a severe attack occurred wherever she was initially at, and I don’t think that was Piper Road,” Whiteley said. “So, I think where she was initially attacked — and with a great deal of evidence to indicate that she was initially attacked in her home — that’s where her death occurred.” Also testifying on behalf of the State of Ohio was Sgt. Eric Werry of the Gallia County Sheriff’s Office. Werry, who, upon coming on duty on March 1, was notified of the disappearance of Betsy Ball and subsequently dispatched to the Ball residence on Wilder Road that morning. As the supervisor on duty that morning, Werry became the lead investigator for the sheriff’s office in this case, assisting the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation with their investigation. After assisting other officers and emergency responders in their search of the immediate area surrounding the Ball residence, Werry stated that the sheriff’s office received word that witnesses had observed a vehicle at the Stepp farm located on Piper Road the previous evening. A second deputy was then dispatched to perform a probable cause search of the farm, and Ball’s body was later found on the farm. Werry also discussed at length his involvement in the investigation of tire impressions that were found in the mud near to and on Ball’s body. According to Werry, casts of the tire impressions were made and were later taken to a local tire dealership where a brand of tire that matched the casts was identified as the type of tire that made the impression. Werry reported that the vehicle that made the impression had matching tires on the front of the vehicle, and a different type of tire on the rear of the vehicle. On March 12, Werry reported that he, along with BCI agents went to the Ball’s residence where they found the defendant, as well as a Ford F-150 belonging to him. The tires on the vehicle reportedly matched the casts made by the officers and also matched the brand name identified at the local tire dealership. Search warrants were later obtained and the vehicle impounded and its contents searched. Werry later discussed his involvement in a subsequent search of the defendant’s home on Skidmore Road and the evidence collected inside, including pressed flowers in wax paper with Betsy Ball’s name written on the paper and a length of quarter-inch red rope. In her cross examination, defense attorney Barb Wallen discussed the rope, the availability of such an item and whether that item could at all be at all connected to the murder of Betsy Ball. Also to testify on Tuesday was Deputy Nathan Harvey, the evidence room manager of the Gallia County Sheriff’s Office, who discussed the evidence room procedures and how the evidence in this case and in any other case is handled by the sheriff’s office. The trial in the case against Lee Hawkins will continue beginning at 9 a.m. on Wednesday in the Gallia County Common Pleas Courtroom. �Wednesday, October 3, 2012 The Daily Sentinel • Page 3 www.mydailysentinel.com Obituaries Tamara Fredonna Blake Tamara Fredonna Blake, 53, of Reynoldsburg, Ohio, passed away Thursday, September 27, 2012, unexpectedly in an accident at Indian Lake, New York.

As several observers have noted, this amorphous statistic includes myriads of worthy beneficiaries indeed, such as veterans, social security recipients, the physically or mentally disabled, the deserving poor, and those utterly unable to take care of themselves in a society where the federal government has assumed tasks that once were the preserve of families, churches, voluntary organizations, and state or local governments. And the president’s advocates have leapt on this figure, which has since exploded in campaign ads that feature a heartless Romney dismissing nearly half of the American population as too anesthetized by government dependency to take seriously in this election. However, beneath Romney’s clumsy formulation lies a fear that troubles many who are deeply alarmed by the effects of America’s burgeoning welfare state, and by those whose historical memories extend to sacrifices made by previous generations, from World War II to the country’s origins. It is a matter of America’s declining public virtue, which is indispensable to the maintenance of a republic. Indeed, our Founding Fathers knew that despite their best efforts in constitutional construction, a country without a modicum of public virtue will collapse as surely as all previous republics had in the past. It is instructive to consider two kinds of virtue that are necessary for the maintenance of the American constitutional order. The first one may be labeled the virtue of sacrifice, which refers to acts with which we are all familiar. It is the firefighter who plunges into an inferno to save those trapped inside; it is the young lieutenant who braves enemy fire, takes the lead, and yells, “follow me!” In terms of politics, the virtue of sacrifice is equivalent to statesmanship, which refers to acts that transcend one’s personal interest for the sake of the greater good. Thus, George Washington made decisions, such as supporting the Jay Treaty, which generated vicious charges worthy of the young country’s worst traitors; he was declared “senile” and accused of treason. Similarly, Abraham Lincoln insisted that the presidential election of 1864 go forward, regardless of the fact that he was convinced he would lose. No matter, the greater good of all America prevailed in Americans’ decisions, which subsequent generations can only admire with a sense of awe and wonder. Statesmanship is as rare in public life as it is precious. The virtue of restraint entails suppression of immediate desires, not so much for considerations of a larger good, but rather because thoughtless self-aggrandizement violates a person’s conscience. Thus, de- cent, virtuous individuals confine their urges with the vise-grip of virtuous restraint, succumbing neither to sentiment nor selfinterest, with the knowledge that a shortterm surrender to impulses can lead to later regret. In constitutional terms, James Madison justified the existence of the U.S. Senate by asserting in Federalist 63: “when the people, stimulated by some irregular passion, or some illicit advantage, or misled by the artful misrepresentations of interested men, may call for measures which they themselves will afterwards be the most ready to lament and condemn … how salutary will be the interference of some temperate and respectable body of citizens … to suspend the blow meditated by the people against themselves, until reason, justice, and truth can regain their authority over the public mind?” However, when the people are bereft of “reason, justice, and truth,” when few possess the virtue of restraint and none the virtue of sacrifice, then decadence occupies the empty moral public space. Decadence is the absence of virtue, it is a moral nullity, it is an ethical vacuum that is filled with the clamor of selfish demands for immediate gratification, absent any consideration for others or for a greater good. Personal decadence borders on criminality; public decadence to a large degree destroys a country. Thus, businessmen who extort their companies, labor unions whose leaders scream for higher benefits regardless of the public’s ability to pay, mobs who assault the public order with demands to retain unsupportable benefits, and politicians who regularly succumb to entreaties for more and greater entitlements, are all decadent. These things are likely what Mitt Romney had in mind when he awkwardly dismissed nearly half of the country’s citizens as beyond help—in which case he was right in his analysis, but wrong with the percentage, because decadence is hard to pin down with particular statistics. However, public decadence is something like obscenity, in that it may be difficult to define, but you know it when you see it. In the final analysis, Governor Romney’s instincts are correct, because so much of what passes for the issues of the day—joblessness, politicians apologizing for America, entitlement reform, the unconscionable public debt—can be understood by reference to the fact that too many of our citizens and most of our leaders have forsaken the politics of virtue and instead have succumbed to decadence. And as Mr. Romney and many others understand, an American republic under such circumstances has not long to survive.

Prescription drug abuse tears apart families and has put entire communities in danger. Nearly everyone knows someone who has had to face the consequences of prescription drug abuse, either firsthand or through a loved one. Even if you do not know someone who has been hurt directly, prescription drug abuse leads to other crime. It is the main cause of thefts and burglaries in southern West Virginia. Worse than that, our region has recently seen a wave of terrifying home invasions by prescription drug addicts looking for pills or for money to buy pills. The prescription drug crisis puts everybody at risk. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), one person dies every 19 minutes from a drug overdose in the United States, and this worsening trend is driven by prescription painkillers: opioid pain relievers are responsible for more overdose deaths than cocaine and heroin combined, and two-thirds of teens who abuse painkillers say they get them from family members and friends (Source: National Survey on Drug Use and Health). In the past two years, my office — the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of West Virginia — has successfully prosecuted nearly 200 prescription drug dealers. Working with law enforcement agencies, we have shut down pill mills 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.

We have prosecuted doctors and pharmacists who abuse their prescription power to pour illegal pills into our communities. But this is not a problem that can be solved solely through tougher law enforcement. Research shows that the most successful way to prevent drug abuse is to prevent drug use in the first place. As part of our ongoing effort to take down the prescription drug abuse epidemic, my office and my fellow federal prosecutors around the country recently teamed up with the Partnership at Drugfree.org to educate citizens about the dangers that lurk in medicine cabinets across the country. Last month, we launched a multi-year Medicine Abuse Project campaign to shine a brighter light on this epidemic and to educate the public about the dangers of abusing prescription and over-the-counter medicines. For many people, especially teenagers, the road to addiction starts with pills they find in their parents’ or grandparents’ medicine cabinets. That’s why my office joined with many other law enforcement officials in support of the fifth National Prescription Drug Take Back Day on September 28. I asked citizens to join the fight against the prescription drug epidemic by getting rid of their own unwanted and expired medications as part of the Take-Back effort. The response was remarkable. The Prescription Drug Take-Back collected a total of 3742 pounds of drugs statewide. That’s almost two tons of unwanted prescription drugs out of people’s medicine cabinets. It’s two tons of medicine that can’t hurt anyone’s children or grandchildren. It’s two tons of drugs that we know won’t contribute to our state’s prescription drug problem. Everyone involved in Saturday’s Take-Back event should be very proud of the difference they’ve made. It’s a great victory for West Virginia. The total from the latest Take-Back Day will be added to the four previous Take-Back events, which yielded a combined total of more than 1.5 million pounds, or 774 tons, of unwanted and expired prescription drugs nationwide. My office and the entire law enforcement community will continue our attack on this problem. We will keep aggressively prosecuting out-of-state drug dealers who peddle their poison in our communities. We will also continue to shut down open-air drug markets and stop new pill mills from starting up. But to succeed in this fight, we need your continued support. Talk to your children and grandchildren about the dangers of prescription drug abuse. If you witness illegal prescription drug activity in your neighborhood, please report it the police. And keep an eye out for the next Prescription Drug Take-Back, which will be announced soon. Together, we can end the prescription drug epidemic in West Virginia.

The visiting Blue Angels (11-5, 5-3 SEOAL) dominated Game 1 by jumping out to an early 18-7 edge before ultimately claiming a 14-point decision. The Lady Chieftains (9-8, 5-3), however, rallied with a trio of solid efforts to wrap up the 3-1 match outcome. The triumph also allowed Logan to avenge a 26-24, 31-29, 25-17 setback at Gallia Academy back on September 13. Both the Blue Angels and LHS are now two games behind Warren in the SEOAL standings. Kassie Shriver led the GAHS service attack with 11 points and four aces, followed by Riley Nibert with 10 points. Breanna West and Taylor Allen both contributed five points apiece in the losing cause, while Maggie Westfall also chipped in four points. Westfall led the net attack with 18 kills, eight of which came in the opening game. Nibert also had eight kills in the setback. Abbie Hughes led Logan in scoring with 16 points and eight aces. Mackenzie Mays paced the hosts with 14 kills at the net.

The Raptors defeated the Cavs, 104-96. Cavs guard, Irving, ready to go after breaking hand INDEPENDENCE, Ohio (AP) — Posing with his arms folded across his chest, Kyrie Irving waited for instructions from another photographer. He was asked to smile. “You don’t have to force me to smile,” Irving said before beaming. Healthy and happy, the NBA’s reigning rookie of the year is ready for his second season. Irving, who broke his right hand this summer in a moment of frustration during practice, was the center of attention Monday as the Cleveland Cavaliers held their media day, an annual preseason ritual of redundant interviews and photo opportunities that precede the opening of training camp. Irving said his hand has completely recovered, and the 20-year-old even joked that the injury has made him a better player. “My left-hand floater is something serious right now,” he said. “I can actually tie my shoe with one hand. My right hand, I’m 110 percent. No problems.” That’s welcomed news for the Cavs, who endured numerous injuries while going 21-45 last season. Irving was one of the club’s only bright spots as the No. 1 overall draft pick joined Oscar Robertson, Magic Johnson, Allen Iverson and LeBron James as the only top picks to average 18 points and five assists in their first season. Irving was sensational. Cavs coach Byron Scott believes his young point guard can do even more. “I expect him to build off that,” Scott said. “I expect him to be better than he was last year. I think Kyrie is going to have a breakout season.” Irving will not have any restrictions on him as the Cavs open camp or “Camp Scott” as it has been called since Scott arrived in 2010 and pushed his players to their physical limits. Irving broke his hand in July, not long after he practiced with the U.S. Olympic team. The Cavs were working out at a high school gym in Las Vegas on July 14 when Irving misfired on a pass to rookie Tyler Zeller. In anger, he slammed his hand into the padded wall and immediately knew something was wrong. He underwent surgery four days later, and for nearly two months he couldn’t do anything with his right hand. The injury probably could have been avoided, but Irving said it hasn’t changed him. “It wasn’t so much a lesson,” he said. “It was one of those things that was just a freakish accident. Honestly, it could have been me being smarter, but going forward, I’m staying away from pads.” While Irving could have prevented this injury, there have been others in recent years. He missed 15 games last season with a concussion and shoulder injury and played in only 11 games as a freshman at Duke because of a foot injury. Those medical mishaps have some wondering if Irving is fragile, a label he and Scott dismiss.

The Eastern volleyball team continued its winning ways, grabbing its 13th consecutive victory with a non-conference triumph over host Meigs Monday night in Larry R. Morrison Gymnasium. The Lady Eagles (16-1) took the opening game 25-17 to take the 1-0 advantage over the Lady Marauders (2-13). EHS got off to a hot start in the second game as it scored the first 13 points of the set. The Lady Eagles went on to take the second game 25-6 and they led 2-0. There was no quit in the Lady Marauders however, as Meigs jumped out to an early lead in the third game. After trailing for most of the third game Eastern strung together six straight points to take the game 25-21 and the match 3-0. “Varsity teams, they play on the same level game after game after game,” said Eastern coach Howie Caldwell. “They don’t play one game real well, one game real bad and then play another game real well. JV teams, yes they do this, varsity teams are very, very consistent and we haven’t reached that consistency yet.” Eastern’s service attack was led by Ally Hendrix with 22 points on the night, including 12 points in the second game alone. Maddie Rigsby had nine points on the night, followed by Erin Swatzel with five points and Jordan Parker with four.

Swatzel had eight blocks to lead the EHS, followed by Parker with four, Keller and Osborne with three each and Rigsby with two in the victory.Ally Hendrix led Eastern with 27 assists on the night, while Gabby Hendrix led they way with 12 digs. The Lady Marauders were led in the service attack by Brook Andrus with five points, followed by Lindsay Patterson with four. Brooke Reynolds had three points, followed by Olivia Cremeans with two. Chandra Mattox and Mercadies George rounded out the MHS scoring with one point apiece. The Meigs net attack was led by Andrus with three kills on the night, followed by Emily Kinnan with four. Olivia Cremeans finished with three kills to close out the MHS total. Patterson led the Lady Marauders with 14 assists. Hannah Cremeans, Emily Kinnan and Olivia Cremeans each had two blocks on the night, while Patterson and Andrus each finished with one. “Our girls have played hard every game this year,” said Meigs coach Rick Ash. ” They went out in the third game, down two, played hard, were spirited and just never quit.” The Lady Marauders have now lost four straight matches, and fall to 1-6 against Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division competition this year. The Lady Eagles are now 3-0 against TVC Ohio teams this year, including two wins over Meigs. Lady Vikings edge River Valley Alex Hawley ahawley@heartlandpublications.com McARTHUR, Ohio — The River Valley volleyball fell to non-conference host Vinton County Monday night in five games. River Valley (6-9) took the opening two games 2624, before the Lady Vikings rallied back to take the third game 25-10.

Never Too Late: Bluffton trailed Allen East 27-7 with 4:11 left in the third quarter, but rallied to edge the Mustangs 35-33, winning it when Mitchell Ault threw a 26-yard TD pass to Levi Kistler with 13 seconds left; Note This: Coldwater’s 41-6 win over St. Henry is the 17th straight time that the Cavaliers have defeated the Redskins in the annual Backyard Battle; Denzel Norvell of Dayton Thurgood Marshall scored five TDs, including a 98-yard run, in a 73-0 rout of Dayton Meadowdale; unbeaten Norwalk won at Shelby for just the second time in 21 starts since 1971 with a 49-7 win; Millersburg West Holmes (6-0) is off to its best start since 1999 when the Knights went 11-1; Caleb Johns had nine carries for 114 yards rushing and three TDs, returned an interception 85 yards for a score and returned a punt 54 yards for another TD in leading Hicksville past Antwerp, 59-0; Dayton Northridge ended a 22-game losing skid by beating Camden Preble Shawnee 34-26; and Columbiana Crestview scored at least 57 points for the fourth straight game in a 58-7 win over New Middletown Springfield as Nick Blower ran for 252 yards and three TDs on 19 carries to lead the Rebels, averaging 52.8 points a game in a 6-0 start. Grounded: Logan beat Portsmouth 34-13 for its first win of the season — without throwing a pass. Cory McCarty rushed for 270 yards on 39 carries as the Chieftains ran 53 plays, all on the ground. They lost their quarterback to concussion symptoms and Caleb Lewellen filled in. It’s the first time Logan hasn’t thrown a pass since 1999 and only the second time since 1958. Busy Boy: Just last week, Hanoverton United’s Cole Weikart scored four goals in three soccer matches, finished second overall at the Columbiana County cross country meet to lead the Eagles to the team title and kicked four extra points in United’s 42-27 win over Lisbon David Anderson. All Over: Ontario’s Jordan Campbell rushed for 189 yards and four TDs on 24 carries as the Warriors stunned Bucyrus Wynford 267, snapping the Royals’ 63-game regular season winning streak. Wynford’s last previous regularseason loss was against Sycamore Mohawk on Sept. 1, 2006 (28-7). The Royals’ last North Central Conference loss was to Lucas on Sept. 24, 2004 (14-13). Fresh Start: A year ago, Chillicothe Huntington was in the throes of another winless season. The Huntsmen broke a 37-game losing streak earlier this season and now stand 4-2. QB Brice Vickers is leading the way, particularly in Friday’s 34-31 win over Unioto. The senior went 10 of 14 passing for 144 yards and had 22 carries for another 100 yards. Dialing Long Distance: Tim Cross grabbed a pass from Grant Nowakowski and sprinted 99 yards for a touchdown in Andover Pymatuning Valley’s 49-0 win over Vienna Mathews. The 99-yard reception set an Ashtabula County record and matched the state record. Of course, the mark will never be broken, unless the Ohio High School Athletic Association enlarges the playing field to more than 100 yards. According to the OHSAA website, Cross’ 99-yard touchdown Friday night was the 13th time it has happened during a high school football game in the Buckeye State. Cross also caught a 20-yard TD pass from Nowakowski and just for good measure, blocked, then recovered a fieldgoal attempt and ran it back 80 yards for another score. Nebraska’s Pelini keeps Buckeye pride under wraps LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — To Bo Pelini, Nebraska’s visit to Ohio Stadium this week is strictly business. There’s no time for something as frivolous as admitting to fond memories of his playing days at Ohio State. That was the Nebraska coach’s message Monday when he was asked if taking his No. 21 Huskers (4-1, 1-0 Big Ten) into the “Horse- shoe” to play the 12th-ranked Buckeyes (5-0, 1-0) made him feel nostalgic. “Why would it?” he said. When it was suggested that lots of folks have a soft spot for their alma mater, Pelini said he once did — but not anymore. “I’m at a different time in my life, a different place,” he said. “I mean, I have a job to do. That’s all I’m concerned with.” Pelini didn’t play on vintage Ohio State teams. The Buckeyes were 25-18-3 over his four years (1986-90), never finished higher than a tie for third in the Big Ten and went to two bowls. Earle Bruce, who recruited Pelini out of Youngstown, Ohio, was fired and replaced by John Cooper after the 1987 season. Bruce recalled Pelini as John got in the game with a wide range of sports, movies and more & saved up to $850! Packages start at just having an advanced understanding of the game. Cooper has said he barely remembers Pelini. Pelini was the starting free safety his last two years and was a team captain as a senior. First-year Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer was a graduate assistant on the 1986-87 Ohio State teams. Meyer and Pelini also crossed paths in the Southeastern Conference, when Meyer was head coach at Florida and Pelini was LSU’s defensive coordinator. “We’re both northeast Ohio guys,” Meyer said Monday. “Have a really good relationship with Bo. Lot of respect for him as a player. … He was a really tough guy, just like his personality is now.” Old football players are famously passionate about where they went to college, none more than men who once played for the Buckeyes. Watch player introductions on NFL games, and chances are Ohio State alums will say they went to “THE Ohio State University.” “I do have pride in where I went to school and my career there,” Pelini said. “That has nothing to do with Saturday. It doesn’t really make any difference what happened back in ‘86 to ‘90. That’s a different time in my life.” Linebacker Will Compton said he thinks Pelini purposely downplays talk about his Ohio State roots because it would be a distraction. “He thinks about it as his family going against another opponent that’s in the way of what we want to do,” Compton said. “That’s coach Bo. He comes to work every day. He doesn’t get caught up in the outside. It’s about what goes on behind our close doors and within our family.” Running back Rex Burkhead said he’s sure deep down the game is a little more meaningful to Pelini. Last year in Lincoln, the Huskers overcame a 21-point third-quarter deficit to beat the Buckeyes 34-27 in the greatest comeback in school history.

It’s just a matter of him going out there and playing basketball and not getting too hyped up as he told me when he slapped the wall. I told him when he slaps things, things break. So he just has to be very under control at all times.” Irving added five pounds to his 6-foot3 frame during the off-season to better handle the more physical pro game. Because he likes to drive the lane, Irving wants to be able to take a hit — and maybe even give one back. “I feel like I added another piece to my game, which is my post game,” he said. “Coming down the court, I feel like me just adding that piece and being able to withstand a whole entire game without getting knocked down, and just being more ready. Players are more physical in the NBA and I just wanted to be more prepared this season.” On the flip side, the Cavs were pleased rookie guard Dion Waiters had shed a few pounds. The fourth overall pick in this year’s draft, Waiters said he’s lost 8-10 pounds since summer league, when he showed up out of shape because of some injuries sustained before the draft. “Baby fat,” Waiters said, adding his body type explains some of his girth. “I’m just thick.” Cavs center Anderson Varejao has recovered from the broken right wrist that kept him out of more than 40 games last season. Despite the injury, the 6-foot-11 Varejao said he will not change anything about his all-out hustle game. He plans to dive, bounce, scratch — whatever’s necessary — to get a loose ball or rebound. “I’m going to keep playing the same way,” he said. As for Irving, Scott expects him to be a more vocal leader and take charge of a young Cavs team that won’t have veterans Antawn Jamison or Anthony Parker around. “I think Kyrie going into this year feels a lot better in his position of being one of the leaders on the team and his experience of being here last year,” Scott said. “I expect that to grow as well. I expect him to be a great leader. As I told him, you have to lead by example.” Irving said he “held back” last season, and now that he knows what to expect believes he can take his game to another level. Cavs guard Daniel Gibson, who played with James, said the NBA is in for a treat in Irving’s second season. “I know what’s about to happen,” Gibson said. “The rest of the world should be prepared from something special, because he is. Very few players come around like him. He comes in the gym and he doesn’t warm up or nothing and we get out on the floor and he’s doing all kinds of moves. It’s just him. “That’s Kyrie. He’s just a special talent that the world will get to see real soon.” �ANNOUNCEMENTS Legals SERVICES Business • Prompt and Quality Work • Reasonable Rates • Insured • Experienced • References Available Gary Stanley 740-591-8044 60347311 Stanley Tree Trimming & Removal Please leave a message Legals Public Sale The Personal property and contents of the following storage units will be auctioned for sale to satisfy the lien of Hill’s Self Storage.

At times, you might feel hurt by someone’s comments or actions, and could cop an attitude as a result. Do not just assume that the other party intended to say or do something hurtful. You’ll discover that some of your judgments could be wrong. If you are single, you could meet someone who is emotionally unavailable. Take your time getting to know this person. If you are attached, spending time alone could be more of a pleasure than ever before. TAURUS naturally gravitates to you. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH The more you express your flexibility, the more your associates might be willing to bend as well.
