Heritage Ohio created the series to introduce individuals and communities to the concept of rehabilitating older commercial buildings, using the federal 20 percent and Ohio 25 percent historic tax credits and introducing the people who run the program on behalf of Ohio’s Development Services Agency and the State Historic Preservation Ofﬁce. Buildings in the Historic District in Pomeroy may be eligible for these credits. The “coffee” will be held in Pomeroy at the Meigs County Chamber of Commerce and Economic Development ofﬁce (mural building) at 236 East Main Street, from 11 a.m.-noon. There is no charge to attend. Heritage Ohio’s director, Joyce Barrett, summarized the workshop concept, “We recognized there is an audience that just wants a brief introduction, before they commit to hours of research. In one quick hour, we can show how it works and introduce the people who manage the program. They are great people working to help get buildings restored, not faceless bureaucrats.” Presenting the program will be: Nathan Bevil, Technical Preservation Services Manager at the State Historic Preservation Ofﬁce, which reviews the historic integrity of the proposed work; Lisa Brownell, program manager at the Ohio Development Services Ofﬁce who assists See TAX | 5 FAO to distribute free books to educators, service providers FAO receives OMG Books Award from Nonprofit, First Book Staff Report NELSONVILLE — The Foundation for Appalachian Ohio (FAO) has been selected from among over 100 applications to receive an award of $50,000 for new books and eBooks that will expand FAO’s efforts to connect educators and service-providers with high-quality education materials for the children they serve. First Book, the nonproﬁt social enterprise focused on equal access to quality education for children in need, awarded the funds as part of its OMG Books Awards: Offering More Great Books to Spark Innovation, a program INDEX Obituary: 2 News: 3, 5 Opinion: 4 Sports: 6 TV: 7 Comics: 8 Classifieds: 9 Weather: 10 that will give more than $4.7 million in funding to distribute 1.5 million brand new books and eBooks to children living in low-income communities in 33 U.S. states and territories.

IN BRIEF Lam: Quitting is easy way out HONG KONG (AP) — Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam said Tuesday she has never tendered her resignation to China over the anti-government protests that have roiled the city for three months. Lam was asked repeatedly at a news brieﬁng about a Reuters report on Monday citing leaked audio of her telling business leaders recently that she would quit if she had a choice. “I have never tendered a resignation to the central people’s government. I have not even contemplated to discuss a resignation ... the choice of not resigning was my own choice,” Lam said when asked why Beijing refused to let her quit. “I know it is not going to be an easy path, and that’s why I have said that I have not given myself the choice to take an easier path and that is to leave.” Lam also slammed the recording and leaking of her comments from the private meeting as “unacceptable.” Lam was elected as Hong Kong’s chief executive by a pro-Beijing committee of Hong Kong elites, and the mainland government has spoken in support of her government and the city’s police force throughout the sometimes-violent protests. Facebook sets changes SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Facebook says it is ending its practice of using face recognition software to identify users’ friends in uploaded photos and automatically suggesting they “tag” them. Instead, it is replacing the feature, called “tag suggestions,” with its broader face recognition setting, which identiﬁes people’s faces in photos for various uses, not just tagging. Beginning Tuesday, people who are new to Facebook, or previously had the tag suggestions setting available, will instead get the face recognition setting, which they can turn on. It will be off by default. People who had the tag suggestions setting turned off will see a notice about face recognition and a button to turn it on or keep it off. Facebook was sued in Illinois over the tag suggestion feature and a federal appeals court has ruled the lawsuit can proceed. R. Kelly with other inmates CHICAGO (AP) — Prosecutors say jailed singer R. Kelly has been moved into the general inmate population despite concern other inmates could try to hurt him because of his celebrity status and because he is accused of sexually assaulting minors. A ﬁling by Chicago federal prosecutors says jail personnel moved Kelly from a restrictive housing unit Tuesday. His lawyers said last week Kelly had been in solitary conﬁnement in the Chicago federal jail since July, calling it “cruel and unusual punishment.” But Tuesday’s ﬁling contends Kelly had cellmates while in the restrictive unit and that he himself asked to be kept from other inmates for fear of attack. Prosecutors quoted Kelly as saying in a jail phone call he’d seen “too many movies” about bad things happening to well-known inmates. He faces sexual misconduct charges in Illinois, Minnesota and New York. Judges toss NC districts RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — A North Carolina judicial panel rejected state legislative district maps Tuesday, saying legislators took extreme advantage in drawing voting districts to help elect a maximum number of Republican lawmakers. The judges gave lawmakers two weeks to try again. The three-judge panel of state trial judges unanimously ruled that courts can step in to decide when partisan advantage goes so far it diminishes democracy. Their ruling comes after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in June in a separate case involving North Carolina’s congressional map that it’s not the job of federal courts to decide if boundaries are politically unfair — though state courts could consider whether gerrymandering stands up under state laws and constitutions. �NEWS Daily Sentinel Wednesday, September 4, 2019 3 ‘Total devastation’: Hurricane slams parts of Bahamas By Ramon Espinosa, Dánica Coto and Michael Weissenstein Associated Press FREEPORT, Bahamas — Relief ofﬁcials reported scenes of utter ruin Tuesday in parts of the Bahamas and rushed to deal with an unfolding humanitarian crisis in the wake of Hurricane Dorian, the most powerful storm on record ever to hit the islands. At least ﬁve deaths were reported, with the full scope of the disaster still unknown. The storm’s punishing winds and muddy brown ﬂoodwaters destroyed or severely damaged thousands of homes, crippled hospitals and trapped people in attics. “It’s total devastation. It’s decimated. Apocalyptic. It looks like a bomb went off,” said Lia Head-Rigby, who helps run a local hurricane relief organization and ﬂew over the Bahamas’ hard-hit Abaco Island. “It’s not rebuilding something that was there; we have to start again.” She said her representative on Abaco told her that “there’s a lot more dead” and that the bodies were being gathered. Emergency authorities, meanwhile, struggled to reach victims amid conditions too FAO dangerous even for rescue workers, and urged people to hang on. “We don’t want people thinking we’ve forgotten them. ... We know what your conditions are. We know if you’re stuck in an attic,” Tammy Mitchell of the Bahamas’ National Emergency Management Agency told ZNS Bahamas radio station. With their heads bowed against heavy wind and rain, rescuers began evacuating people across Grand Bahama late Tuesday using jet skis, boats and even a huge bulldozer that cradled children and adults in its digger as it cut through deep muddy waters and carried them to safety. One rescuer gently scooped up an elderly man in his arms and walked toward a pickup truck waiting to evacuate him and others to higher ground. Practically parking over a portion of the Bahamas for a day and a half, Dorian pounded the northern islands of Abaco and Grand Bahama with winds up to 185 mph (295 kph) and torrential rain before ﬁnally moving into open waters Tuesday on a course for Florida. Its winds were down to a still-dangerous 110 mph (175 kph). Over 2 million people Dingus Brook, President & CEO of the Foundation for Appalachian Ohio.

While the threat of a direct hit on Florida had all but evaporated, Dorian was expected to pass dangerously close to Georgia and South Carolina — and perhaps strike North Carolina — on Thursday or Friday. Even if landfall does not occur, the system is likely to cause storm surge and severe ﬂooding, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said. “Don’t tough it out. Get out,” said U.S. Fed- eral Emergency Management Agency ofﬁcial Carlos Castillo. In the Bahamas, Red Cross spokesman Matthew Cochrane said more than 13,000 houses, or about 45% of the homes in Grand Bahama and Abaco, were believed to have been severely damaged or destroyed. U.N. ofﬁcials said more than 60,000 people on the hard-hit islands will need food, and the Red Cross said some 62,000 will need clean drinking water. “What we are hearing lends credence to the fact that this has been a catastrophic storm and a catastrophic impact,” Cochrane said. Lawson Bates, a staffer for Arkansas-based MedicCorps, ﬂew over Abaco and said: “It looks completely ﬂattened. There’s boats way inland that are ﬂipped over. It’s total devastation.” The Red Cross authorized a half-million dollars for the ﬁrst wave of disaster relief, Cochrane said. And U.N. humanitarian teams stood ready to go into the stricken areas to help assess the damage and the coun- try’s needs, U.N. spokesman Stéphane Dujarric said. The U.S. government also sent a disaster response team. Abaco and Grand Bahama islands, with a combined population of about 70,000, are known for their marinas, golf courses and all-inclusive resorts. To the south, the Bahamas’ most populous island, New Providence, which includes the capital city, Nassau, and has over a quartermillion people, suffered little damage. The U.S. Coast Guard airlifted at least 21 people injured on Abaco. Rescuers also used jet skis to reach some people as choppy, coffeecolored ﬂoodwaters reached roofs and the tops of palm trees. “We will conﬁrm what the real situation is on the ground,” Health Minister Duane Sands said. “We are hoping and praying that the loss of life is limited.” Sands said Dorian rendered the main hospital on Grand Bahama unusable, while the hospital in Marsh Harbor in Abaco was in need of food, water, medicine and surgical supplies. He said crews were trying to airlift ﬁve to seven kidney failure patients from Abaco who had not received dialysis since Friday. than $12 million. “We know that access to books and eBooks makes a signiﬁcant difference in a child’s future success,” said Kyle Zimmer, First Book president, CEO, and cofounder. “Children do not thrive in deeply under-resourced environments and too many of the schools and programs have far too little. This deprivation has long-term consequences for the children, their families, their communities and our nation. This could not be more urgent. With the OMG Books Awards, First Book and the Foundation for Appalachian Ohio are investing not only in the future of the kids we’re reaching, but in the overall wellbeing of our nation.” Access to adequate resources is one of the greatest contributors to educational success in the United States. Research indicates that just the presence of books in the home improves educational outcomes, yet low-income communities across the U.S. are plagued by vast ‘book deserts’ — with one community having only a single book per as many as 830 children. Additionally, members of the First Book Network, who exclusively serve kids in need, have indicated that without First Book, the children they serve would have access to very few books, if any at all. Eligible educators, librarians, providers, and others serving children in need can sign up to receive resources from First Book outside of OMG Books Awards at FirstBook.org/Join.

It was really sturdy plastic. It kept drinks cold for as long as needed. I had a couple of glass juice glasses, too. My tween daughters — not quite teens yet, but deﬁnitely not little girls anymore — don’t think a plastic cup is quite good enough. Now they’re in search of drinkware that costs more than my sneakers. It all started with a couple of athDavid letic water bottles they got at a sumTrinko Contributing mer camp. Once they realized there was more to life than cheap plastic, columnist they were hooked. Before long, they owned some much nicer squeeze bottles that cost way too much because a popular athletic shoe provider put its logo on the side. They seemed happy with them for a while. Meanwhile, I’m still drinking out of a lot of big plastic glasses we bought at sporting events we attended. I frequently sip from drinkware with the pictures of quarterbacks and home-run hitters on the side from teams as far as three states away. Then the YETI craze started. Apparently, people started paying $30 for a tumbler with a top on it. Now you see people walk around with them into meetings everywhere. That stylistic choice found its way into the single-digit grades. I resisted this. When birthday season hit in August, though, their grandmother didn’t. Now both of them have a YETI with an initial on it. Meanwhile, when I’m grabbing a big drink, most of mine are served in a big glass I picked up at a bar once upon a time. Legally, of course (as far as you know). So now they’ve started talking about their newest trend, and I’m learning all sorts of new terminology in the process. First they joked about becoming “Visco girls.” According to UrbanDictionary.com, that’s a girl who has lots of scrunchies, an Apple Watch, wears Birkenstocks and edits her photos on the Vsco editing app. This mythical status of overspending apparently includes having the Hydro Flask, a $50 container that advertises it can keep drinks cold for 24 hours and hot for six hours. We told them if they really wanted it, they’d have to save their own money to get it. The closest I came to something like that was using a Thermos to bring soup to school for lunch sometimes as a kid … until some of my classmates made fun of me for bringing soup to school. Then I started bringing sandwiches in a brown paper bag to school. That’s when I remember that peer pressure’s always been around. As much as I’d like my kids to not feel pressured into unnecessary consumerism, my decisions as a kid were made by others, too. I just wish their peers had cheaper tastes.

I hoped that I would leave this world he may not have ever achieved before them. I could not bear the thought of them leaving me behind. My parents both did themselves a favor and left before I did.

Always by his side she was and when she was not, like the night of the candlelight vigil, I heard him say as he did the few times she wasn’t “is my mom there?” That brought tears to my eyes. Changing lives and changing communities is the legacy that Lewis left behind. When we think of Lewis over the years we will remember one thing about him. That great, big, beautiful smile and his bubbly attitude. Hug someone today and say “I love you” because tomorrow you may be stuck with the “what-ifs” in life and that is much worse than what we do today. Thank you, Lewis, for healing us “even though” we could not do the same for you. Keep smiling Lewis “even though.” I know you are! Dave Morgan Point Pleasant, W.Va.

See TEAMS | 7 US gets past Turkey 93-92 in OT; Tatum injured SHANGHAI (AP) — In the ultimate moments, everything hinged on free throws. Turkey missed them. The U.S. made them. And that is how the Americans escaped what would have been a massive World Cup upset. Khris Middleton’s two foul shots with 2.1 seconds left in overtime capped a wild ﬁnish to a wild game, as the U.S. held off Turkey 93-92 in a Group E game on Tuesday night — a contest that the underdogs simply gave away in the ﬁnal moments. “It was a heck of a game,” U.S. coach Gregg Popovich said. “As we all know, it was anybody’s game. We will accept the win.” The U.S. wasted a 15-point lead in the ﬁrst half, didn’t trail until the ﬁnal moments of regulation, needed two free throws from Jayson Tatum with one-tenth of a second left just to get into overtime, came back from ﬁve points down in the extra session and — if all that wasn’t enough — needed Turkey to go 0 for 4 from the foul line in the last 9 seconds. “It means a lot. It means a lot, man,” U.S. guard Kemba Walker said. Dogus Balbay missed a pair following an intentional foul with the U.S. down one, and Cedi Osman missed two more about a second later. Those misses by Osman set up the last U.S. possession, one where Tatum controlled a rebound, brought the ball down and found Middleton for a drive to the rim. Tatum went down, spraining his left ankle on the play. The U.S. didn’t go down with him. Middleton made both, Ersan Ilyasova missed a jumper for Turkey as time expired and the U.S. survived. “It really hurts,” Turkey’s Furkan Korkmaz said. “I think it was in our hands — not their hands.” Middleton led the U.S. with 15 points. Walker, who single-handedly accounted for the rally from down ﬁve, scored 14. Tatum ﬁnished with 11 points and 11 rebounds. Ilyasova led Turkey with 23 points. Melih Mahmutoglu had 18, Furkan Korkmaz scored 16 and Osman added 15 for Turkey — which was within a hair of one of the biggest wins in its basketball history, on a night when it seemed like all 18,000 whistling and hooting fans at the Shanghai Oriental Sports Center were in their favor. “I need mental strength to overcome this,” Turkey coach Ufuk Sarica said.

Ohio wins opener over URI, 41-20 By Alex Hawley ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com ATHENS, Ohio — Picking up right where they left off in nine months ago. The Ohio University football team kicked off its 2019 season and won its 10th straight decision in Peden Stadium on Saturday in Athens County, as the Bobcats defeated non-conference guest Rhode Island by a 41-20 count in front of over 16,000 in attendance. Ohio (1-0) began its ﬁrst drive in the shadow of its own end zone, but traveled 94 yards in 13 plays and 6:38, with senior quarterback Nathan Rourke scoring on a ﬁve-yard run with 5:50 left in the ﬁrst. Louie Zervos made his ﬁrst of ﬁve extra-point kicks to give the Bobcats a 7-0 lead. Rhode Island (0-1) — a Division I FCS school — answered with a 15-play drive, but was forced to settle for a 35-yard C.J. Carrick ﬁeld goal 1:26 into the second quarter. OU answered on its ensuing drive, as Zervos connected from 37 yards out to make the Bobcat lead 10-3 with 10:18 left in the half. The guests punted for the second time on their next drive, and Ohio was up 17-3 six plays later, as Rourke tossed a 22-yard touchdown to Tyler Tupa with 3:00 left in the half. The Rams had enough time to get three points back, however, with Carrick hitting a 19-yard ﬁeld goal to make the OU lead Ohio redshirt junior Ryan Luehrman (88) snags a touchdown pass, during the Bobcats’ season-opening 41-20 win over Rhode Island on Saturday at Peden Stadium in Athens, Ohio. 17-6 at the break. The Green and White began the second half with a 10-play, 72-yard drive that was capped off by a four-yard touchdown pass from Rourke to Ryan Luehrman. Rhode Island was in the end zone for the ﬁeld time less than two-minutes later, as Vito Priore tossed a 34-yard scoring pass to Aaron Parker. Ohio went up 27-13 on its next possession, as Zervos capped off the eight-play, 50-yard drive with a 42-yard ﬁeld goal. A failed punt by the Rams left the Bobcats just 15 yards to paydirt on its next possession. On the third play of the drive, Ohio junior De’Montre Tuggle ran into the left side of the end zone from six yards out to give Ohio a 34-13 advantage with 15:40 left in the game. Following a URI punt, Ohio began its ﬁrst drive of the fourth quarter on its own 22. Tuggle had a 78-yard touchdown run called back after a penalty on the second play of the drive, but six plays later, the Ohio junior found the end zone from 55 yards out to give the hosts a 41-13 lead with 11:12 to go. The Ohio offense was stopped for the ﬁrst and second times in the game on their next two possessions, with Rhode Island scoring the ﬁnal touchdown of the contest on a 38-yard pass from Priore to Isaiah Coulter. Following the game, Bobcats head coach Frank Solich was pleased with the win, but noted the Bobcats have plenty of work ahead of them. “We won the ballgame. I think that’s great,” Solich said. “I think we played a pretty good football team, a fairly talented football team, and fought. It was a little disconcerting at ﬁrst when they were able to get the running game going as early as they did, and get things done that they got done. “We’re obviously going to have to do things better, really, on both sides of the ball and in special teams also. We have a lot of improvement to do. I’m proud of the guys for getting it done today, and even though we seemed to get off to a slow start, I thought as the game went on, we did things much better.” For the game, Ohio held a 23-to-21 edge in ﬁrst downs and a 466-to375 advantage in total offense, including a 278to-84 clip on the ground. The Bobcats lost the turnover battle by a 2-to-1 count, but didn’t punt in the contest. Rourke — who was 16-of-22 passing for 188 yards and two touchdowns — carried the ball 10 times for a total of 75 yards and one score. Julian Ross carried the ball 14 times for a total of 68 yards, with his long of 21 coming for a third-and-18 conversion. Tuggle had 65 yards and two touchdowns on three carries, O’Shaan Allison carried the ball six times See URI | 7 �SPORTS Daily Sentinel Wednesday, September 4, 2019 7 Meigs girls golf tops Blue Angels By Alex Hawley ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com POMEROY, Ohio — A great way to spend Labor Day.

And they clinched a spot in the second round — though that seemed ancillary. “We capped it off at the end,” U.S. center Myles Turner said. “All that matters. JT, Kemba, Khris, a lot of guys made big plays down the stretch.” Ilyasova’s tip-in with 12.3 seconds remaining in regulation gave Turkey its ﬁrst lead at 81-79. Turkey had gone 0 for 9 on shots to take the lead before Ilyasova’s swat bounced off the rim and dropped through the net. The U.S. went for the win on the ensuing possession, ﬁrst with Middleton missing a 3-pointer and then the ball ﬁnding Tatum as the last seconds ticked away. He got fouled by Osman as he took a 3-point attempt from the top of the key; the scoreboard showed no time left, but ofﬁcials put one-tenth of a second on after review. He made the ﬁrst. The second rimmed out. The third, with the game on the line, rattled home. “JT, that kid is 21 years old, man,” Walker said of his Boston teammate. “He was huge for us.” The U.S. led 41-26 in the second quarter when Turkey got a spark from a guard — from Gainesville, Florida. Scottie Wilbekin, who played four years of college ball for Florida and got his Turkish passport last year, fueled a 12-0 run that awoke the proTurkey crowd. He got it going with a 3-pointer, fed Ilyasova for another 3 not long afterward and converted a four-point play with 3:12 left in the half.

Russo Associated Press The Top 25 went 23-0 against unranked teams to open the season, leaving the rankings mostly unchanged with No. 1 Clemson and No. 2 Alabama at the top of the ﬁrst regular-season AP college football poll of 2019. The Tigers received 54 ﬁrst-place votes out of 62 in the media poll, up two from the preseason. The Crimson Tide received the remaining eight in the poll presented by Regions Bank. The only Top 25 team to lose was Oregon, which slipped to 16 after dropping a thriller to Auburn. The Tigers moved up to 10th. The last time the Top 25 teams went undefeated against unranked foes in a full, regular-season weekend was October 2017 (15-0 the week of Oct. 15). The last time only one ranked team lost in a full weekend of games was Sept. 21, 2013. The top seven teams in the preseason rankings held their spots Tuesday. Clemson and Alabama were followed by No. 3 Georgia, No. 4 Oklahoma, No. 5 Ohio State, No. 6 LSU and No. 7 Michigan. Notre Dame moved up a spot to No. 8 and Texas was ninth. Florida slipped three spots to No. 11. Poll points Another record for Alabama. The Crimson Tide is ranked in the top ﬁve for the 56th consecutive week, dating to Nov. 8, 2015. That breaks a tie with Miami, which went 55 straight weeks in the top ﬁve from Oct. 8, 2000-Oct. 26, 2003. Moving in, but not out No. 24 Boise State was the only team to move into the rankings this week, but in an odd quirk, no team fell out. There was a tie at No. 25 between Nebraska and Iowa State. The Broncos are ranked again after rallying from 18 points down to beat Florida State on the road Saturday. The last time there were 26 teams in the top 25, with a tie for the ﬁnal spot, was Nov. 18, 2012. The last time a full schedule of college football was played and no teams fell out of the rankings was Nov. 6, 2016.

Including men who supposedly had been hardened by what they have done for a living for decades. “A Lifetime of Sundays” was the reason. The ﬁlm features four female team owners whose back stories and storytelling mesmerized the crowd. And now, the movie by NFL Films and narrated by Academy Award-winner Regina King, is available for public viewing: It aired Sunday on ABC and will be streamed by ESPN+ beginning Sept. 15. “I just recommend (it), I hope everybody has an opportunity to see this thing,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said. “It was phenomenal.” Kansas City’s Norma Hunt, Detroit’s Martha Ford, Chicago’s Virginia Halas McCaskey, and Pittsburgh’s Patricia Rooney originally were reticent about the project when approached by Jane Skinner Goodell, the commissioner’s wife and an executive producer of the movie. Indeed, she received a polite no from each of the women, who range in age from 81 to 96. “The main reason why was because the women are too (740) 992-2155 or fax to (740) 992-2157 XXX�NZEBJMZTFOUJOFM�DPN�t�HEUDMBTTJöFET!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN HEUMFHBMT!BJNNFEJBNJEXFTU�DPN SERVICES Professional Services 0RELOH 3RZHU :DVKLQJ 7UHH 6HUYLFH /DZQ /DQGVFDSH �� 3UHIHUUHG 3DLQWHUV 5HVLGHQWLDO &RPPHUFLDO �� 5(<12/'6 &RPSOHWH 7UHH 6HUYLFH �� EMPLOYMENT Help Wanted General Full-Time Service Advisor apply in person at Service Dept.Smith Chevrolet 1911 Eastern Ave. Gallipolis, Oh GMHA is seeking an experienced public housing manager to oversee easy day today operations of 144 HUD rentals.

It took the better part of a year to convince them to do it.” Goodell actually approached NFL Films to see if they were interested in the project even before getting a go-ahead from any of the team owners. And when the four women declined, like Saquon Barkley in the open ﬁeld, Goodell switched directions. “We were going to do them as separate documentaries,” she explained, “but they all had the same response, that they would not be comfortable, that they didn’t know why anyone should be interested in what they had to say. A key was for them to understand there is an audience. I knew there was an audience, that people would be hungry for the histories told by these four women, and in such a different manner than we had heard before. I so badly wanted them to share the stories.” The breakthrough came when it was suggested that one ﬁlm focusing on all four women be made. Goodell would moderate a panel dis- cussion with Ford, Rooney, Hunt and McCaskey during the Playmakers program at the March 2018 league meetings. The women would simply chat about their football experiences through the decades. The turnout was so large that the commissioner told his wife he needed to reschedule a speciﬁc meeting with team owners. “What are you doing to my meetings?” he joked. Although all four women had a case of nerves, once the panel discussion got going, it was, Jane Goodell said, “lightning in a bottle.” “They got such a kick out of each other, hearing their stories — a lot of stories they had not heard before,” she said. “The energy was so great, I knew the women felt it. They recognized that their stories had real value for people. “Virginia came up to me and said, ‘I am sorry we gave you a hard time. I think I understand now.’” The next step was making the ﬁlm. The women talked about their teams, the league, great plays and players, and the world at large. They were honest, funny, insightful and always respectful of each other and the audience.
