Halfhill indicted for crash deaths

By Sarah Hawley

shawley@aimmediamidwest.com

POMEROY — A
Meigs County man is
facing several charges
in connection with the
motor vehicle death of
two people last month
near Chester.
Austin R. Halfhill, 23,
of Pomeroy was indicted
on Tuesday by a Meigs
County Grand Jury on
nine charges, including
two ﬁrst-degree felony
charges of Aggravated

Vehicular Homicide.
Halfhill is alleged to
have been the driver of
a vehicle which went
left of center and struck
a motorcycle driven by
John McElfresh, 62,
of Glouster on Aug. 4
on State Route 7 near
Chester. McElfresh was
killed in the crash, as
was passenger Brenda
Suttle, 59, of Crooksville, who’s body was
found the day after the
crash.
Halfhill is charged

with two counts of
aggravated vehicular
homicide, felonies of the
ﬁrst degree; two counts
of aggravated vehicular
homicide, felonies of
the second degree; two
counts of vehicular manslaughter, misdemeanors of the ﬁrst degree;
and three counts of
operating a vehicle
while under the inﬂuence, misdemeanors of
the ﬁrst degree.
According to Meigs
County Prosecutor

James K. Stanley,
“Halfhill is alleged to
have presented with
indicia of being under
the inﬂuence of a control substance after the
crash and is alleged to
have admitted using
methamphetamine and
buprenorphine before
the crash. A subsequent
urine analysis allegedly
indicated the presence
of methamphetamine,
amphetamine, and
buprenorphine in Halfhill’s system at the time

of the crash. Halfhill
is also alleged to have
been operating his
motor vehicle with a
suspended license.”
The Ohio State Highway Patrol investigated
this matter, and the
Chester Volunteer Fire
Department, Meigs
EMS, and the Meigs
County Coroner’s Ofﬁce
assisted at the scene.
Halfhill has been held
on a $250,000 bond
since the crash. He
was initially charged

in Meigs County Court
with one count of aggravated vehicular homicide, a felony of the
second degree. The case
was bound over from
county court to common
pleas court for grand
jury consideration, leading to the ﬁling of the
indictment on Tuesday.
Halfhill is scheduled
to be arraigned at 8:30
a.m. on Wednesday.

Middleport
discusses
benefits
By Kayla Hawthorne
Special to the Sentinel

MIDDLEPORT — The Middleport Village
Council discussed vacation pay for employees and
village updates during their meeting on Monday
evening.
Council unanimously voted to accept Village
Administrator Joe Woodall’s request to allow
employees to receive payment for their unused
vacation time. Council approved the employees
to receive the payment for up to 40 hours of vacation time, one time per year. This could prevent
employees from losing vacation time when they
reach the cap accruement — which is 80 to 160
hours depending on the length of employment. If
the employee takes the payment, they will not be
able to spend those hours. However, if they still
have time built up, they can use the vacation time
in the same year as well.
This payment will only be for Middleport Public
Works employees and not for the police department at this time. Council member Carolyn French
suggested waiting to hear from Police Chief Bruce
Swift about offering the payment to his employees.
Council member Ben Reed said the chief should
attend the council meetings to discuss his employees and their beneﬁts. Swift was at the meeting on
Aug. 12 when Woodall ﬁrst mentioned the topic.
At that time, Swift said he was not sure about
implementing the change and asked for the discussion to be tabled.
Council also approved to start the process to
purchase a new cruiser for the police department.
Fiscal Ofﬁcer Sue Baker said the department usually purchases a new cruiser after the loan is paid
off on the previous purchase, which reduces the
cost of maintenance and repairs. The current loan
will be paid off in November. Assistant Chief and
Jail Administrator Mony Wood said he believes
the cost of the car and police package will be
under $40,000, but they will know a total after
requesting information on bids.

The inaugural brick swap in Middleport was held on Saturday with collectors meeting to swap bricks from around the region and beyond.

‘Swapping’ a piece of history
By Jennifer Harrison
Special to the Sentinel

MIDDLEPORT —
The inaugural brick swap
was held in Middleport
on Saturday, allowing collectors to “swap” pieces
of history from around
the region and beyond.
Brick is one of the
oldest and most enduring man-made building
materials. Sun-dried mud
brick, or adobe, appeared
about 10,000 years ago,
and the earliest kilnﬁred or clay-baked brick
dates to 3,500 BC. This
marked the ﬁrst time
humans were able to
construct permanent,
ﬁreproof structures without stone.
The ﬁrst bricks in the
English colonies in North

Brick swap organizers Gary Coleman and Jordan Pickens are
pictured at the event.

America were made in
Virginia around 1612.
New England saw its
ﬁrst brick kiln erected at
Salem, Massachusetts in
1629. The Dutch colonists in New Amsterdam
imported yellow bricks

from Holland, which
imparted a Dutch character to the architecture
of the city. The excellent
quality and abundance
of local clays in the
colonies made it unnecessary to import bricks

from across the Atlantic.
Brick-making centers
developed in Albany,
New York; Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania; Burlington
and Trenton, New Jersey,
as well as along the Raritan River.
The paving brick
industry ﬂourished in
Ohio from the 1880s
until the 1930s. The
most abundant and
important clay beds
occurred in the eastern
part of Ohio, associated
with coal-bearing rocks.
Today, due to the durability of the products, we
still see lasting reminders
of this industry in the
streets and sidewalks of
nearly every town or village all over the world,

ATHENS — You can
often tell whether a person is from Gallipolis just
by how they pronounce
the town’s name. People
who grew up in the Ohio
River community say it
one way, while much of
the rest of the region says
it entirely differently.

Gallipolis has recently been recognized for a pair of accolades, the first, when Ohio Magazine
announced it would feature Gallipolis as one of five communities as part of its annual Ohio’s Best

of its “Our Town” Emmy award-winning series.

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) —
A rocket exploded at the U.S.
Embassy in Afghanistan just
minutes into Wednesday, the
anniversary of the 9/11 attack
on the United States, but ofﬁcials at the compound declared
all-clear about an hour later and
reported no injuries.
A plume of smoke rose over
central Kabul shortly after midnight and sirens could be heard.
Inside the embassy, employees
heard this message over the
loudspeaker: “An explosion
caused by a rocket has occurred
on compound.”
There was no immediate comment from Afghan ofﬁcials. The

NATO mission, which is nearby,
also said no personnel had been
injured.

AP Congressional Correspondent

WASHINGTON —
President Donald Trump
on Tuesday abruptly
forced out John Bolton,
his hawkish national security adviser with whom
he had strong disagreements on Iran, Afghanistan and a cascade of
other global challenges.
The sudden shakeup marked the latest
departure of a prominent
voice of dissent from the
president’s inner circle,
as Trump has grown
less accepting of advice
contrary to his instincts.
It also comes at a trying
moment for Trump on the
world stage, weeks ahead
of the United Nations
General Assembly and as
the president faces pressing decisions on difﬁcult
foreign policy issues.
Tensions between
Bolton, Trump’s third
national security adviser,
and other ofﬁcials have
ﬂared in recent months
over inﬂuence in the
president’s orbit and how
to manage his desire to
negotiate with some of
the world’s most unsavory
actors. Since joining the
administration in the
spring of last year, Bolton
has espoused skepticism
about the president’s
whirlwind rapprochement with North Korea,
and recently has become
a vocal internal critic of
potential talks between
Trump and leaders of
Iran and Afghanistan’s
Taliban.
Bolton also broke with
Trump with his vocal
condemnation of Russia’s global aggressions,
and last year he masterminded a quiet campaign
inside the administration
and with allies abroad
to persuade Trump to
keep U.S. forces in Syria
to counter the remnants
of the Islamic State
and Iranian inﬂuence
in the region. Bolton’s
maneuvering at the time
contrasted with former
Secretary of Defense

President Donald Trump, left, shakes hands with national security adviser John Bolton in the Cabinet
Room of the White House in 2018. Trump tweeted Tuesday that he told Bolton Monday night that his
services were no longer needed at the White House.

Jim Mattis’ decision
to instead resign over
Trump’s December withdrawal announcement,
which has been effectively
reversed.
On Twitter Tuesday,
Trump and Bolton offered
opposing accounts on the
adviser’s less-than-friendly departure, ﬁnal shots
for what had been a fractious relationship almost
from the start.
Trump tweeted that
he told Bolton Monday
night his services were
no longer needed at the
White House and Bolton
submitted his resignation
Tuesday morning. Bolton
responded in a tweet of
his own that he offered to
resign Monday “and President Trump said, ‘Let’s
talk about it tomorrow.’”
Trump explained that
he had “disagreed strongly” with many of Bolton’s
suggestions as national
security adviser, “as did
others in the administration.”
South Carolina Sen.
Lindsey Graham, who
had been traveling with
Trump Monday, said
reports of Bolton’s opposition to a now-scrapped
weekend meeting with
the Taliban at Camp
David was a “bridge too
far” for Trump.
And one Republican
familiar with the disagreements between

Trump and Bolton said
the adviser’s opposition
to a possible meeting
between Trump and Iranian President Hassan
Rouhani was a precipitating factor. French President Emmanuel Macron
has been trying to broker
such a meeting, possibly
on the sidelines of the
upcoming U.N. General
Assembly, in hopes of salvaging the international
Iran nuclear deal from
which Trump withdrew.
“There were many
times that Ambassador
Bolton and I disagreed.
That’s to be sure,” said
Secretary of State Mike
Pompeo Tuesday. He
added that Trump has
been clear that he is willing to meet with Rouhani
“with no preconditions.”
Treasury Secretary
Steven Mnuchin, who
appeared with Pompeo at
the White House, volunteered: “The president’s
view of the Iraq war and
Ambassador Bolton’s was
very different.”
A former Bush
administration ofﬁcial,
Bolton has championed
hawkish foreign policy
views dating back to the
Reagan administration
and became a household
name over his vociferous
support for the Iraq war
as the U.S. ambassador to
the U.N. under George W.
Bush. Trump initially sup-

ported the 2003 U.S. invasion, but subsequently
became a vocal critic.
The Iranian government hailed Bolton’s
departure, and spokesman Ali Rabiei said it
might pave the way for
warmer relations. “By
dismissal of the biggest
supporter of war and
economic terrorism, the
White House will face
less barrier to understand
realities of Iran,” he said
in a tweet. Tehran calls
the U.S. sanctions on Iran
“economic terrorism.”
Pompeo said, “I don’t
think any leader around
the world should make
any assumption that
because some one of us
departs that President
Trump’s foreign policy
will change in a material
way.”
Bolton’s well-known
foreign policy views and
harsh rhetoric for U.S.
foes had turned him into
a convenient boogeyman
for the likes of North
Korea and Iran, which
have assailed him in the
media.
His ouster came as

Memories from
the wife of a school
administrator
One of my greatest life blessings was the
opportunity to be a school administrator’s
spouse. For the past 17 years, since marrying
Larry Claypool, I had this supportive role in the educational
world. Since my 66-year-old husband retired this past summer
from Hardin-Houston Local
School, I’ve reﬂected on some
memories made during this journey.
Christina
It was in June 2002, when Larry
R. Claypool and I wed, that he was the direcContributing
tor of student services for Van
columnist
Wert County, and I was working
in public relations for Lima’s
Apollo Career Center Adult Education. We were
united in marriage, and also personally united
in the cause of giving students of all ages the
best education that our public school system
could provide.
This journey has been a joy. For instance, two
short years after we married, Larry’s opportunity to become the middle/high school principal
for Continental Local School caused us to relocate to Continental. In that friendly village, we
ﬁrst learned about the acceptance of rural folks.
We were deeply touched when greeted with
the school sign, “Welcome, Mr. and Mrs. Claypool.” That very year in 2004-2005, we were
also blessed with a Cinderella basketball team
who took us on an exciting journey to the state
ﬁnals in Columbus.
After a few years, it was on to the superintendent’s job at Hardin-Northern Local School
for my hubby. Only there for several months,
a much needed levy passed by just 44 votes,
providing funds for a multi-million dollar renovation. This resulted in a state of the art facility
that will provide opportunities for students for
years to come.
During that season, I was humorously dubbed
the project’s “volunteer public relations coordinator.” The school’s grand opening was an exhilarating community event, while purchasing a
commemorative wall block is a forever memory
for us as a couple.
Although there has been immense sadness as
well. Early on, we learned about the unexpected
and tragic phone calls a school administrator
can receive. We got used to the phone ringing
in the wee hours of the morning for weather
calls regarding busing decisions. But when my
husband would answer, “Oh no,” with shock and
despair in his voice, I was instantly awakened
knowing a tragedy had occurred, most likely
involving a student.
You never get hardened to the pain and
anguish of losing someone so young or the feeling of helplessness watching their loved ones
grapple with their loss. That’s why, one memory
I wish I could erase is standing in funeral home
lines, while my husband tried to comfort grieving parents, when there are no Earthly words
that can do that.
You see, even though we share a wonderful
son, those kids were our kids, too. That’s how
you feel as an administrator and a spouse connected to the vision. The school and its needs
always come ﬁrst in your home, because there is
a weighty responsibility for the countless lives
entrusted into an administrator’s care. Honestly,
I won’t miss my spouse often working 14-hourdays either, but I will miss the way his face lite
up when he saw his students.
The last assignment Larry accepted was in
2011, when he signed on as the superintendent of Hardin-Houston Local School. We had
prayed a lot about where we should go, realizing
he would retire in less than a decade. HardinHouston was the perfect answer to our prayers.
A building project was nearing completion, and
we purchased a second commemorative wall
stone to celebrate the event. We also purchased
our retirement home in Troy, Ohio.
There were more school banquets, plays, sporting events, graduations, and sometimes I got
to accompany my spouse. Personally, it was the
graduations that always took my breath away.
The excitement of a gymnasium ﬁlled with family and friends, colorful red and white graduation
gowns, ceremonial music, and the rite of passage
when a student proudly received their diploma.
It has been such a privilege to have had this supportive role and share in the lives of countless
Ohio children through my husband’s position.
In the midst of the wonderful experiences and
even during the heartbreaking times, Larry and
I found one thing to be true. It is summed up in
the statement on those two commemorative wall
blocks. Along with our names forever etched in
stone, it says, “God is faithful.” I leave you with
those three important words and with sincere
gratitude to everyone who somehow touched our
lives along the way. Thank you, it has been such
an honor!

How to revitalize your home orchard
Do you have gnarly old
fruit trees on your property? Do they produce
edible fruit? We often see
established old trees that
have been neglected and
taken for granted, so the
fruit they offer isn’t good
for much except feeding
deer and yellow jackets.
This is a shame, since a
healthy mature fruit tree
can produce many bushels of edible fruit if it’s
taken care of.
It’s really challenging
to start a home orchard

have to invest years of
care and coddling before
fruit trees are really productive, so it’s well worth
the trouble to rejuvenate
older, existing fruit trees.
It’s not easy, however,
and the results take a few
years to really pay off.

In other discussion at the council meeting, resident Mary Wise asked council about the “10-year
look ahead” that Council President Brian Conde
wants to create. Conde mentioned the proposal
during the Aug. 12 meeting. Wise said she has
books and materials that past councils have created as a “look-ahead” for Middleport, but they were
not followed through. Wise asked council what
they would do after completing the study. Conde
insisted that the plans would be followed. Wise
also asked why they wanted to do another study,
or look-ahead, when the current buildings are
not maintained. Wise was referencing the depot
at Dave Diles Park. She was part of a group who
restored the building, but says now the loading
dock needs replaced, trees need trimmed, lights
need replaced, the outside walks need repaired
and painted — but Wise said the village has not
been taking care of it.
Woodall said the lights that need replaced
belong to American Electric Power and he has
contacted them about replacing the bulbs. Woodall
also said the repairs to the exterior walls were
extensive.
Reed said he wanted his shot at making Middleport a great place to live. He also said that the
village cannot compare what they are trying to
do with what happened in the past. Reed thanked
Wise for her input, concerns and dedication to
Middleport’s History.
Conde said he wants this 10-year plan to be created in collaboration with village residents.
In his report to council, Administrator Joe
Woodall said,
-Paving on the sewer project will begin this

be paved. Bricks will be replaced on Lincoln Street
between Second Street and Third Street.
-Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is
working on the property acquisition for two properties on Brownell Avenue in order to move forward with the slip repair. Woodall said the repairs
are likely to happen in the spring. Woodall also
said the village received funding from Ohio Public

STEWART, Ohio — A worthy effort, but

The Southern volleyball team dropped its ﬁrst
league match of the season on Monday night
during a heartbreaking 25-16, 23-25, 26-24,
17-25, 15-12 setback to host Federal Hocking in
a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division contest in Athens County.
The visiting Lady Tornadoes (4-4, 3-1 TVC
Hocking) overcame a slow start in Game 1 and
took their only lead at 8-7, but the Lady Lancers
countered with a 13-5 surge while securing a
commanding 20-13 edge.
The hosts followed with a small 5-3 run the
rest of the way to claim a 9-point win and a 1-0
match lead.
SHS again needed time to secure its ﬁrst lead
in Game 2 at 7-6, but Federal Hocking responded and found itself clinging to a 23-21 edge late
in the second contest. The Purple and Gold,
however, reeled off four consecutive points
while tying the match up at one apiece.
FHHS built a 23-19 lead in a tightly-contested
Game 3, but the hosts answered with ﬁve consecutive points for a 24-23 edge.
The Maroon and Gold staved off a game point
by breaking serve and added two more scores
to claim the minimal 2-point win … and a 2-1
match advantage.
The Lady Tornadoes jumped out to leads of

GRAYSON, Ky. — Rafaella Gioffre posted her second straight medalist ﬁnish, leading the University of
Rio Grande women’s golf team to a third place ﬁnish
in the Kentucky Christian University Fall Invitational,
which wrapped up on Sunday at Hidden Cove Golf
Course.
Gioffre, a senior from Hebron, Ohio, carded a
36-hole total of 5-over par 149 to post a three-shot
win over the University of Pikeville’s Ellen Kehoe.
Gioffre gave Rio its ﬁrst-ever medalist ﬁnish last
week by taking the title at the Indiana University East
Fall Classic.
She tallied a 3-over 75 on Saturday and took a one
shot lead over Glenville State College’s Kendall Wall
heading into Sunday’s ﬁnal round.
Gioffre had a 2-over par 74 on Sunday to maintain
the lead, while Kehoe overtook Wall for second place.
Pikeville won the team championship with a total of
655, while Oakland City University was second at 696
and Rio Grande was third with a team score of 709.
Also representing Rio Grande was sophomore
Abby Eichmiller (Vincent, OH), who ﬁnished 11th in
the 29-player ﬁeld with with 94-83-177; sophomore
Elizabeth Leach (Waterford, OH), who placed 18th
at 94-93-187; sophomore Hunter Rockhold (Clinton,
OH), who tied for 21st at 99-99-198; and sophomore
Erin Fridley (Delaware, OH), who took 25th place at
109-100-209.
Sophomore Madison Duskey (Beverly, OH) participated as an individual and placed 29th at 121-143-264.
Rio Grande returns to action on Saturday when it
travels to Tifﬁn, Ohio for the Heidelberg University
Invite.

A running game that combined
for more than 1,900 yards last
season has 64 total yards, ranking
dead last in the Bowl Subdivision
with 1.1 yard per carry. Much of
that falls on the blocking.
“I just know it was bad,” said
offensive line coach Matt Moore.
“I don’t know exactly what it was,
but it was bad, whether it was
miscommunication, whether it
was guys trying too hard and falling down. I don’t know. At this
point you’ve just got to keep working. We’ll get to that point, but it’s
never easy getting there.”
Austin Kendall, a graduate
transfer from Oklahoma who won
the starting quarterback job over
three others, was intercepted
twice against the Tigers and has
yet to look consistently comfortable in two games.
“It’s tough to evaluate, honestly,” Brown said. “He got hit,
I think, eight times in the ﬁrst
three series. There were times
when he threw the ball really well.
I thought he showed courage by
staying in the pocket and continued delivering the ball. His decision making has got to be better.
He’s got to do a better job with his
eyes. So I think there’s room for
improvement by him. But we’ve
got to play better around him.”

Tigers trample
RedStorm women

Jets-Browns squared off in MNF’s debut

By Randy Payton

By Dennis Waszak Jr

For Ohio Valley Publishing

Associated Press

GEORGETOWN, Ky. — Host
Georgetown College took advantage
of a short-handed University of Rio
Grande roster and rolled to a 13-1 win
over the RedStorm, Saturday afternoon, in non-conference women’s soccer action at Toyota Stadium.
Rio Grande, which dressed just 13
players for the contest, slipped to 0-5
with the loss.
Georgetown evened its record at 2-2
with the win.
The 13 goals scored by the Tigers
equaled a Rio record for goals allowed
in a single game, tying the mark established by Tifﬁn University in a 13-0
win on October 21, 2006.
Maddie Sparks had three goals and
a pair of assists for GC, while Maggie
Vanluit had two goals and three assists
in the winning effort.
Genarose Jones also scored twice
and assisted on another score for the
Tigers, while Libby Miller had two
goals.
Georgetown, which led 5-0 at halftime, outshot the RedStorm, 31-6,
including 22-2 in shots on goal.
Olivia Ashby, Grace Whalen and Keri
O’Toole all had one goal each for the
Tigers, while Haven Lochow and Jalyn
Vogteach had an assist.
Rio Grande’s lone goal came on an
unassisted marker by freshman Emily
Hoffman (Arcanum, OH) with 29:07
left to play.
Megan Martin earned the win in goal
for Georgetown with a scoreless ﬁrst
half. Sarah Slusher allowed the one
Rio goal and stopped one shot over the
ﬁnal stanza.
Freshman Jayla Brown started in net
for the RedStorm, allowing seven goals
and stopping six shots over the ﬁrst
51:27 of the contest.
Freshman Rachelle Wolford (Marysville, OH) allowed six goals and
stopped four shots in the ﬁnal 38:33 of
the match.
Rio Grande returns to action on
Wednesday night against Mount Vernon Nazarene University.
Kickoff is set for 8 p.m. at Mount
Vernon High School.

It was the prime-time football game
that kicked off decades of must-see
TV.
Broadway Joe and the New York
Jets traveled to Cleveland to take on
Leroy Kelly and the Browns in the
1970 season opener, with excited
viewers around the United States
glued to their sets — along with a
club-record 85,763 at Municipal Stadium — to watch the ﬁrst “Monday
Night Football” game.
The Jets fell behind 21-7 on Homer
Jones’ 94-yard kickoff return for a
touchdown to open the second half,
but Joe Namath’s 33-yard touchdown
pass to George Sauer in the fourth
quarter cut the Browns’ lead to three
at 24-21.
Billy Andrews sealed the win for
Cleveland by intercepting Namath late
in the game and returning it 25 yards
for the ﬁnal score.
It was the ﬁrst in what would
become the longest-running sports
series in TV history. The teams will
meet again this Monday night at
MetLife Stadium — this time with
the Browns’ Baker Mayﬁeld and Odell
Beckham Jr. sharing the spotlight with
the Jets’ Sam Darnold and Le’Veon
Bell, and both teams looking to avoid
starting the season 0-2.
Here’s a look at how that ﬁrst “Monday Night Football” game affected
each team in subsequent seasons:

what would have been the go-ahead
extra point. The Browns fumbled the
ensuing kickoff and the Jets recovered,
allowing Leahy to redeem himself
by booting a go-ahead 21-yarder. But
Brian Sipe rallied Cleveland down
the ﬁeld and Don Cockroft kicked a
tying 35-yarder to send it to overtime.
An interception of Matt Robinson by
Oliver Davis gave the Browns the ball
in the extra period, and Cockroft’s
27-yarder won it 25-22 for Cleveland.
1987: Another OT game, this time
in the teams’ only postseason meeting. Freeman McNeil’s TD run gave
the Jets a 10-point lead with just over
four minutes left, but a late hit by
Mark Gastineau on a third-down play
kept the Browns alive. Bernie Kosar
rallied Cleveland to tie it and send it
to overtime. Mark Moseley missed a
23-yard ﬁeld goal in the ﬁrst overtime,
but was good on his 27-yarder in the
second OT to send the Browns to the
AFC championship game with a 23-20
victory.
2002: The Jets took a 21-3 lead
under Chad Pennington, then Tim
Couch marched the Browns back in
the second half. Phil Dawson kicked
a 35-yard ﬁeld goal to put Cleveland
ahead 24-21 with 3:30 left, and Courtney Brown blocked John Hall’s 44-yard
tying attempt in the closing seconds
to seal it for the Browns.
2010: Moments after Nick Folk’s
ﬁeld goal put the Jets ahead by seven
with 2:42 left, Colt McCoy rallied the
Browns to a tying touchdown to send
it to overtime. Appearing as though
the game would ﬁnish in a tie, the Jets
got the ball with 24 seconds left. Mark
Sanchez connected with Santonio
Holmes, who took the short pass 37
yards for a touchdown to give New
York the 26-20 victory.
2018: The Jets grabbed a 14-0 lead
on two touchdown runs by Isaiah
Crowell, who celebrated the second
against his former team by wiping his
rear end with the football in the end
zone. It was all downhill from there
for New York. Rookie Baker Mayﬁeld
replaced injured starter Tyrod Taylor
in the second quarter and dazzled in
his NFL debut, leading the Browns
to a 21-17 comeback victory that
snapped Cleveland’s 19-game winless
streak.

Cleveland
The Browns were coming off consecutive appearances in the NFL
championship game, losing to the
Colts in 1968 and the Vikings in 1969.
There was lots of uncertainty about
the future, though, as the merger
between the NFL and AFL was completed and Cleveland moved to the
newly formed AFC.
The win over the Jets on Monday
night didn’t springboard the Browns
to continued success. Cleveland
opened the season 3-1, but scufﬂed
to a 7-7 ﬁnish and failed to make the
playoffs. It was also the ﬁnal season
for coach Blanton Collier, who retired.
Nick Skorich took over and guided

against the Los Angeles Rams, Boston
and Minnesota. They then skidded
to the end of the season with three
straight losses.
Namath came back, but played in
just 23 games over the next three seasons because of various injuries. The
Jets went 17-25 during that span and
didn’t get back to the playoffs until
the 1981 season — four years after
Namath retired following a one-season
stint with the Rams.
That 11-season postseason drought
is the longest in franchise history, with
this current Jets squad second at eight
years.
