BIDWELL — River Valley High School has
recently put out a community interest survey in
hopes of developing a school community advisory
council by seeking representation and input from
each of the school’s attending communities.
“We have Teacher-Based Teams,” said RVHS
Math Teacher Tony Gillman. “My team, the community and data team, these have all been created
this year to better the school in certain areas…
Our community team has decided to partner with
the community and we feel a lot of times we want
more community involvement at the school. We
want parents and members of the community to
come in and give their opinion and see what we’re
doing and to communicate with them.”
“It seems like all the schools have a town they
have to come to and build camaraderie,” said

IN BRIEF

Cyberattacks target of bill
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Gov. Mike DeWine has
signed a bill aimed at enhancing Ohio’s resilience to
cyberattacks, including those aimed at its election systems. The measure signed Friday adds a chief information security ofﬁcer at Secretary of State Frank
LaRose’s ofﬁce who will work to enrich both state and
county election security technology efforts. The law
gives LaRose, Ohio’s elections chief, and Ohio National Guard additional power to improve responsiveness
in the event of a cyberattack and requires county
elections boards to conduct post-election audits. It
also places LaRose on the Ohio Homeland Security
Advisory Council. The measure also creates the Ohio
Cyber Reserve. This volunteer cyber force of trained,
vetted civilians will report to the state Adjutant General’s Department. They can be mobilized to help
small governments affected by cyberattacks.

Ohio seeks rehearing
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The state is asking
the full federal appeals court in Cincinnati to rehear
a case about an Ohio law prohibiting doctors from
performing abortions based on a fetal diagnosis of
Down syndrome. A judge had put the law on hold, and
a three-judge panel from the 6th U.S. Circuit Court
of Appeals upheld that decision earlier this month.
Their 2-1 ruling said the law passed in 2017 is likely
unconstitutional. The Ohio Attorney General’s Ofﬁce
on Friday ﬁled its request for reconsideration by the
full 6th Circuit.

Gallipolis Elks 107 purchased and delivered 154 cases of peanut butter to the Gallia Snack Pack storage area. This donation was
made possible by the Gratitude Grant from the Elks National Foundation along with an additional $190 from the Gallipolis Elks.
In addition to the peanut butter, the Gallipolis Elks presented a check to Snack Pack for an additional $610. Elk’s members Bill
Johnson, Gary Rife, and Gary Harrison, and Fred Bryant (not pictured) along with Snack Pack representative Harry Dillon are shown
at the Snack Pack Distribution Center where the backpacks are filled. The Gallipolis Elks also donated $500 to the Grace United
Methodist Church food pantry from the same grant.

According to the Spina Biﬁda Foundation Association, approximately 1,600 babies are born in the
United States with Spina Biﬁda annually making it
the most common and permanently disabling condition associated with live births. With October being
Spina Biﬁda Awareness Month, many organizations
strive to reach out to educate the public in an attempt
to reduce the stigma of those affected
and increase preventative measure taken
by women of child bearing age.
Spina Biﬁda is known as the “snowﬂake” disease since no child has the
same experience with the condition. The
term “Spina Biﬁda” means “splitting of
the vertebrae” and ranges in severity and
complexity for each child. Several terms

Spina Biﬁda Occulta (SBO) affects
15 percent of those diagnosed that is
also referred to as “hidden spina biﬁda” because most
do not realize they have the condition until revealed
later in life.
Meningocele is when a portion of the spine protrudes between the vertebrae of the fetus/newborn in
a ﬂuid sac. This is usually seen on ultrasound prior to
birth and requires corrective surgery. This typically
involves some form of mild disability.
Meningomyelocele (Spina Biﬁda Cystica) is the
most severe and involves the spinal cord being further
protruded through the vertebral space. This condition
causes nerve damage and typically swelling in the
brain as well. Corrective surgery is required and those
affected have more serious life-long disabilities.
Spina Biﬁda is thought to be caused by a combination of genetics and environmental factors beyond the
control of the parents. However, awareness activities
are largely focused on the prevention of Spina Biﬁda
with maternal health/prenatal care. With many pregnancies being unplanned and undetected until well
after Spina Biﬁda would’ve developed, it is recommended that women of child bearing age take a multivitamin with at least 400mcg of folic acid, whether
planning to become pregnant or not. Studies have
shown that these supplements can reduce the risk of
Spina Biﬁda and other neural tube defects by 70 percent. In addition, prenatal testing can identify Spina
Biﬁda for the best treatment possible for families.

Children with Medical Handicaps program for Meigs

THEIR VIEW

Protect Ohioans
from meritless
lawsuits
More than half of our country’s states protect people who are engaging in their First
Amendment right of Freedom of Speech from
becoming targets of meritless lawsuits. Our
democracy depends on encouraging public
dialogue about community issues. Citizens
should be allowed to show up at a local government meeting and express their opinions
about social and business issues and their
government without retribution. Our democracy also depends on journalists being able to witness that
dialogue and report it to their
audience.
The Ohio News Media Association has been working for the
past three years on getting legislation enacted that would provide
Monica
better protection for citizens and
Nieporte journalists against meritless defaContributing mation and libel claims.
columnist
Senate Bill 215, introduced this
month by Senator Matt Huffman,
R-Lima, and co-sponsored by several of his
colleagues including Senate President Larry
Obhof, will accomplish that.
Strategic lawsuits against public participation (SLAPP) is litigation that is ﬁled accusing a citizen or media representative of defamation or libel even when there is nothing
false about the statements and they are clearly
opinion. The subject of the remarks knows
that he or she will eventually lose the case but
ﬁles the lawsuit as a tactic to stop the citizen
from making further comment or to deter others from speaking out.
Eventually the defendant prevails but only
after months or years are spent in court. The
determination that the comments were Constitutionally-protected speech comes at the
end of that process and meanwhile legal fees
continue to accumulate.
Anti-SLAPP laws are designed to quickly
dispose of these defamation or libel claims
if it is a clear-cut case that the citizen or
journalist was engaged in protected speech.
The time window of this litigation shrinks
from years to months – and contains a “loser
pays” provision meaning if the court decides
the defamation or libel allegation is without
merit, attorney fees for the defendant will be
awarded.
This bill was modeled after the Texas and
California laws, which are generally accepted
as the best of the anti-SLAPP laws. As you
know, Texas is traditionally a conservative
state while California is a more liberal one.
This bill enjoys bipartisan support from a
diverse coalition including the ACLU, Americans for Prosperity, the Ohio Association of
Broadcasters, the Reporters Committee for
Freedom of the Press, domestic violence advocacy groups and the motion picture industry.
It is important to note that this bill does not
change the legal deﬁnition of defamation or
libel in any way. If such statements are made
or printed, the person who believes they were
defamed or libeled still has all of the same
remedies available to them to pursue. What
the bill does do is prevent people from using
the legal system to harass, threaten or ﬁnancially penalize someone for simply exercising
their First Amendment rights. We have had
member newspapers targeted by such meritless claims and it has cost their libel insurers
hundreds of thousands of dollars to defend a
case they were always going to win – it was
just a question of how long the plaintiff was
going to drag out the case and try to outspend
them.
Citizens and government ofﬁcials who
spoke out at a public meeting against a corporation have been likewise frivolously sued.
Domestic violence victims testifying in support of legislation regarding domestic violence laws have been sued for defamation by
their abuser. The motion picture industry has
even been threatened with lawsuits in cases
involving documentaries.
The new law also contains a special provision that provides protection for Ohio citizens
in the event the plaintiff tried to “forum shop”
and ﬁled the lawsuit in a state without an
anti-SLAPP law.
As the bill makes its way through committee hearings, we anticipate some of those who
have been targets of meritless defamation and
libel litigation to testify about their experience. This will be enlightening anecdotal
evidence of the need for an expedited legal
process. The bill isn’t being pursued as a reaction to any of those individual situations but
rather as a proactive step to make sure Ohio’s
legal system has a better mechanism for dealing with these meritless speech-suppression
tactics in the future.
Monica Nieporte is the President and Executive Director of the
Ohio News Media Association.

THEIR VIEW

Protecting Ohioans with preexisting conditions
This month, a new
report revealed that two
million Ohioans could
lose health care if President Trump gets his way
and the entire Affordable
Care Act is overturned.
That’s what President
Trump and his administration are pushing in a
case a federal court heard
this summer. If the court
rules the way the president wants, the entire
health care law could be
gone. Nearly a third of
working-age adults in
Ohio have a preexisting
condition – and without
the ACA, insurance companies would be free to
kick them off their insurance, or charge them premiums they could never
afford.

After Bowen was

Tenoglia said that it is

comment.
In May, the university

and drug use, and other
student conduct code violations after the alleged
hazing of an 18-year-old
student who died last
November. Sigma Pi
said the student wasn’t a
pledge when he died.
The school, based in
Athens, Ohio, released a
series of complaints from
current and past students
about alleged hazing.

including the school’s
marching band and rugby
club.
The new allegations
were obtained Thursday
by The Associated Press
through a public records
request. Ohio University
said it has lifted or eased
restrictions against some
fraternities and organizations as its investigation
continues.
“This process is ongoing, and as more or different information comes
forward, the University may decide to lift or
impose additional restrictions as applicable,” the
school said in a statement
dated Oct. 24.

TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio — A statement win.
The Eastern football team scored on its ﬁrst six
possessions and chalked up its most yards since
Week 1 on Friday at East Shade River Stadium,
as the Eagles soared to a 39-14 victory over TriValley Conference Hocking Division guest Belpre.
The Eagles (7-2, 5-2 TVC Hocking) — securing their ﬁrst season with at least seven wins
since 2010 — scored the game’s opening touchdown 2:47 into play, with Blake Newland ﬁnding
paydirt from 29 yards out. Mason Dishong made
his ﬁrst of three point-after kick to give EHS the
7-0 lead.
Eastern was up 13-0 with 1:50 left in the
period, as Newland punched in on a three-yard
run, and then 1:45 into the second quarter, Steve
Fitzgerald scored on a one-yard run to give the
hosts a 20-0 edge.
Belpre ended the shut out bid with a 50-yard
touchdown pass from Walker Feick to Cody
Dougherty with 7:52 left in the half, and Tyce
Church made his ﬁrst of two point-after kicks to
cut the Golden Eagle deﬁcit to 13.
However, Eastern got six points back in less
than two minutes, with Fitzgerald scoring on a
15-yard run at the 5:58 mark of the period. EHS
added six more points with 16 seconds left in the
half, as Brayden Smith caught a three-yard touchdown pass from Conner Ridenour, making the
EHS lead 32-7 at the break.
Eastern’s ﬁrst drive of the second half resulted
in a ﬁve-yard touchdown run by Newland, making
the Eagle lead 39-7 with 7:17 left in the third.
Belpre’s Nick Godfrey found the end zone on
a two-yard run with 8:22 to play, but the Eastern
ran the clock down and sealed the 39-14 win.
EHS claimed a 23-to-6 advantage in ﬁrst downs,
and a 392-to-158 edge in total offense, which
included a 375-to-76 margin on the ground. Eastern also forced the game’s lone turnover, but was
penalized nine times for 79 yards, while Belpre
was sent back four times for 35.

from an offensive standpoint, but PPHS coach
David Darst was more
than thrilled with how

his defensive unit played
against an unbeaten program that was averaging
over 44 points per game.
“I’m just proud of the
kids because they haven’t
quit on us. We probably
aren’t going to make the
playoffs for the ﬁrst time
in 12 years, but they are
out there on that ﬁeld still
having fun. That’s what
makes this one so special,” Darst said. “These
guys, they want to prove
that we are still worthy
of being a playoff team in
West Virginia. If we were
fortunate enough to have
a normal West Virginia
schedule, that might still
be the case.
“These guys still know
how to win football
games. When we had to
have it tonight, we got
it done. We played four
really good quarters of
football tonight against
a pretty good opponent
tonight. We really needed
this one.”
It was the fourth
straight shutout victory
that Point Pleasant has
posted against Man in the
all-time series. The Big
Blacks also improved to
7-1 all-time while notching their sixth consecutive win.
Brady Adkins — who
was named the Wendy’s

Bulldogs
bite River
Valley, 69-26
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@aimmediamidwest.

BIDWELL, Ohio
— Two offenses were
clicking … just not on
the same level.
Visiting Athens led
wire-to-wire and scored
a season-high in points
while securing at least
a share of the league
championship on Friday night with a 69-26
victory over the River
Valley football team
in a Week 9 Tri-Valley
Conference Ohio Division matchup in Gallia
County.
The Raiders (1-8, 1-5
TVC Ohio) dropped
their fourth consecutive decision, but the
hosts did muster points
for the ﬁrst time since
a 41-25 victory over
Meigs back in Week 5.
The Bulldogs (5-4,
5-0), on the other hand,
churned out at least
two touchdowns in
each of the four quarters played Friday night
en route to their third
consecutive triumph.
The Green and Gold
stormed out to a quick
13-0 advantage 6-plus
minutes into regulation as Corbin Stalder
scored on runs of two
yards and 12 yards,
then Nate Trainer
added a 6-yard scamper with 1:23 left in
the ﬁrst quarter for a
20-point cushion.
The Silver and Black,
however, answered with
a 48-yard Cole Young
run with 22 seconds
left in the opening
frame, then Ryan Jones
added a 13-yard run
at the end of the ﬁrst
quarter to close the gap
down to 20-14.
RVHS was never closer as Athens responded
with Joey Moore scoring runs of 13 and 10
yards while extending
the lead out to 34-14
with 5:57 left until halftime.
Nate Trainer completed the ﬁrst half scoring
by hauling in a 68-yard
pass from Moore with
3:24 remaining for a
41-14 lead.
Peyton Gail broke
away for a 55-yard run
on the opening play of
the third quarter, making it a 48-14 contest
15 seconds into the
second half.

Braeden Halbert
extended the lead to
55-14 at the 8:21 mark
of the third after hauling in a 55-yard pass
from Moore, but the
Raiders countered
with a 2-yard run from
Young to close the gap
down to 55-20 with
5:53 left.
Levi Neal caught a
6-yard TD pass from
Landon Wheatley with
9:37 left in regulation
for a 61-20 edge, but
the hosts answered
with their ﬁnal score as
Young rumbled in from
ﬁve yards out — making it 61-26 with 6:49
remaining.
Trey Finnearty completed the AHS tally
by grabbing a 72-yard
TD pass from Wheatley
with 5:29 left in the
game.
The Bulldogs
churned out an impressive 611 yards of total
offense, with 407 of
those coming through
the air. RVHS, conversely, produced all
but 18 of their 212
yards of total offense on
the ground.
Athens claimed a
27-9 edge in ﬁrst downs
and both squads committed two turnovers
apiece. AHS was
ﬂagged 10 times for 95
yards, while the hosts
had three penalties for
29 yards.
Young led the Raiders
with 104 rushing yards
on 13 carries, followed
by Jones with 37 yards
on nine totes.
Justin Stump added
33 rushing yards on ﬁve
attempts and also completed 3-of-7 passes for
18 yards. Will Hash led
the wideouts with two
catches for 11 yards.
Gail paced Athens
with 114 rushing yards
on seven carries, while
Moore completed
16-of-23 passes for 292
yards — including two
touchdowns and an
interception. Trainer
led the AHS wideouts
with seven catches for
144 yards.

Lady Tornadoes rally past Peebles
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com

JACKSON, Ohio —
Returning to the round
of 32.
The second-seeded
Southern volleyball team
rallied from a 1-0 deﬁcit
to win the next three
games over third-seeded
Peebles in Thursday’s
Division IV district semiﬁnal at Jackson High
School, putting the Lady
Tornadoes back in the district ﬁnal after a two-year
hiatus.
Southern (17-6) —
which went 17 years
between its previous
trips to the district ﬁnal
— began the night by
scoring eight of the ﬁrst
10 points. The Lady Tornadoes were in front 13-8
when Peebles (16-8) rattled off 11 straight points
for its ﬁrst lead of the
night. SHS fought back to
within three points, but
the Lady Indians claimed
six of the next seven to
win the opener by a 25-17
tally.
Peebles scored the ﬁrst
seven points of the second
game and soon stretched
its lead to 10-1. Southern
fought back to take lead
at 15-14, but gave up the
next two markers. The
Lady Tornadoes regained
the edge at 18-17 and led
for the remainder of the
set, winning by a 25-21
clip to even the match at a
game apiece.
Southern took its ﬁrst
lead of Game 3 at 3-2,
but gave the edge back to
PHS at 10-9. The teams
swapped the lead ﬁve
more times in the next 17
points, with SHS taking
the advantage for good
at 19-18. The Purple and
Gold won the third by a
25-18 tally, scoring eight
in a row to end the game.
The Lady Tornadoes
charged out to a pair of
early eight-point leads —
at 10-2 and 13-5 — in the
fourth game, but Peebles
rallied back to take the
lead at 20-19. PHS went
up 22-20, but surrendered
the next four points and
faced a match-point situation. The Lady Indians

Thursday in Jackson, Ohio.

once, but a kill from
junior Jordan Hardwick
gave Southern the 25-23
win in the fourth.
Following the 3-1 win,
fourth-year SHS head
coach Kim Hupp talked
about the team’s adjustments after dropping the
opener.
“The main focus was to
get better passes from our
defense in order for us to
be more aggressive with
our swings,” Hupp said. “I
think the girls made that
adjustment after Set 1.”
The Lady Tornado
service was led by sophomore Cassidy Roderus
with 22 points, including
ﬁve aces. Baylee Wolfe
was next with 10 points
and three aces, followed
by Sydney Adams with
nine points and three
aces. Phoenix Cleland
had seven points and
two aces in the triumph,
Kayla Evans added four
points and one ace, while
Hardwick and Kassie Barton came up with a point
apiece.
Hardwick had 13 kills
and two blocks to lead the
Purple and Gold at the
net. Wolfe earned eight
kills and two blocks for
SHS, while Cleland and
Roderus had three kills
apiece, with four blocks
by Cleland. Evans ﬁnished with a pair of kills
in the win, while Adams
came up with one kill and
a team-best 22 assists.

Southern senior Valerie Ritchhart passes the ball, during the Lady
Tornadoes district semifinal victory on Thursday in Jackson, Ohio.

Jacey Justice paced
the Lady Indians with
23 service points. Tatum
Arey was next with a
dozen points, followed
by Harlee Wilkinson and
Hope Brown with ﬁve
each. Taylor Cluxton and
Madison Beekman both
marked two points, while
Christian Reed came up
with one.
Coach Hupp also talked
about the added motivation for her six seniors —
Cleland, Wolfe, Adams,
Barton, Mickenzie Ferrell
and Valerie Ritchhart —
to get back to the round

of 32 after making it three
years ago.
“This is a great accomplishment for these six
seniors and their teammates,” Hupp said. “They
were freshmen the last
time we were in the district ﬁnals. They have
worked hard to get where
we are tonight.”
SHS has won ﬁve
straight headed into
Saturday’s district ﬁnal
against top-seeded Notre
Dame.

Johnson led the Red
and Black wideouts
with two catches for 19
yards. Adkins and Nick
Parsons also caught
one pass each for seven
yards apiece.
Zack Frye led the Man
rushing attack with 23

yards on six carries.
Caleb Milton completed
6-of-17 passes for 58
yards, including one
interception. Zack Frye
also hauled in a teambest four passes for 29

61-yard drive and led 45-0
after an 18-yard touchdown run by Carrico and
the ﬁrst of two point-after
kicks by Izsak Unger.
Gallia Academy punted
after three plays on its
ﬁrst drive of the second
half, but the Blue Devil
defense forced Ironton to
punt the ball back eight
plays later. A 30-yard run
by Briar Williams on the
ﬁrst play of the fourth
quarter was the Blue Devils’ most successful offensive play of the night, but
four plays later, a missed
36-yard ﬁeld goal attempt
gave the ball back to the
Fighting Tigers. Ironton
punctuated the 52-0 victory at the 4:25 mark of
the fourth, with a 29-yard
touchdown run by Kameron Browning.
Third-year GAHS head
coach Alex Penrod hopes
his team bounces back
from its ﬁrst setback of
the year, because the
ultimate goal of returning
to the postseason is still
attainable.
“The true character of
what this team’s about
will show in the coming
weeks,” Penrod said.
“We’re still not guaran-

teed Week 11, we still
have to take care of business next week. We have
another opponent and
another battle.
”They’re whole goal is
to get to Week 11. They
have to take care of business, the whole mentality
has to be ‘one more.’ Do

GLOUSTER, Ohio —
Unfortunately for the
Tornadoes, the Tomcats
wanted to wrap up their
league title with authority.
The Southern football
team fell to Tri-Valley
Conference Hocking
Division host Trimble
by a 76-0 tally on Friday
in Athens County, giving the Tomcats at least
a share of their second
consecutive league championship.
Southern (5-4, 4-3 TVC
Hocking) was outgained
482-to-73 in total offense
in the game, with the
Tomcats (9-0, 7-0) earning a 359-to-59 advantage on the ground.
Trimble — ranked No.
3 in the Division VI AP
Poll — found the end
zone ﬁve times in the
opening quarter and converted on four of the ﬁve
point-after kicks.
Conner Wright began
the scoring with touchdown runs of 12 yards
and 72 yards. Cameron
Kittle got in the mix with
an 11-yard touchdown
run, before a six-yard
scoring run from Wright.
A 30-yard touchdown
pass from Kittle to Bryce
Downs concluded the
ﬁrst quarter scoring for
THS, but the hosts found
the end zone three more
times in the second.
Kittle began the second
quarter with a 64-yard
touchdown pass to Blake
Guffey. After a 30-yard
interception return for
a touchdown by Wright,
Kittle gave the hosts a
55-0 halftime lead with
a 67-yard touchdown run.
Wright scored for the
ﬁfth time with a 64-yard
run in the third quarter,
and then Ronald Mafﬁn
found the end zone with
a six-yard run. The twopoint conversion gave
THS a 70-0 lead headed
into the ﬁnale.
Trimble capped off
the 76-0 win with a
66-yard fumble return for
a touchdown by Tabor
Lackey, and then took a
knee on the conversion
attempt.
The Tornado ground
attack was led by Jonah
Diddle with 30 yards on
ﬁve carries. Josh Stansberry carried the ball
eight times for a total of
18 yards in the setback.
Gage Shuler — who
was 2-of-6 passing for
nine yards — carried the
ball six times for a total
of 15 yards, and caught
one four-yard pass. Andy
Doczi completed 2-of-5
pass attempts for a total
of ﬁve yards, while Chase
Bailey, Will Wickline and
Trey McNickle caught
a pass apiece for 10,
one, and minus-1 yards
respectively.
McNickle — Southern’s leading rusher for
the season, who entered
play with four consecutive 100-yard rushing
performances — was
held to minus-4 yards on
eight carries.
For Trimble, Wright
had 231 yards on seven
carries, Guffey hauled in
three passes for 81 yards,
while Kittle — who was
5-of-6 passing for 123
yards — carried the ball
ﬁve times for a total of
111.
Next, Southern will
be on Roger Lee Adams
Memorial Field for the
ﬁnal time this fall, as
they host Eastern on Saturday.

RedStorm

Carlow
By Randy Payton
For Ohio Valley Publishing

RIO GRANDE,
Ohio — Just a week
removed from being
limited to just seven
shots in a doubleovertime loss at
WVU-Tech, the University of Rio Grande
gave itself plenty of
opportunities to ﬁnd
the net.
And ﬁnd the net
they did.
The RedStorm
scored a season-high
13 goals and tallied a
season-high 50 shots
in a 13-0 rout of visiting Carlow University, Thursday night,
in River States Conference men’s soccer
action at chilly Evan
E. Davis Field.
Rio Grande, ranked
No. 14 in the latest
NAIA coaches’ poll,
improved to 12-3
overall and 6-1 in
conference play with
the loss.
Carlow dropped to
0-11 overall and 0-6
in the RSC.
The 13 goals
scored represented
the most in a single
game for Rio since
a 14-0 rout of Cincinnati Christian
University on Oct. 4,
2018.
The 50 shot
attempts were the
most in a single
game for the RedStorm since a whopping 68 tries in a 9-0
win over Cincinnati
Christian on Oct. 26,
2017.
The dominating
effort was also the
latest in Rio’s alltime series with
Carlow.
Since the Celtics
debuted their men’s
program in 2016,
Rio has won all four
meetings between
the two schools and
owns a 48-0 advantage in goals scored.
In Thursday night’s
latest meeting, the
RedStorm jumped to
a 5-0 halftime lead
with the ﬁrst three
goals coming a span
of just under four

minutes.
The ﬁnal four of
Rio’s eight second
half markers came in
a span of just over
3-1/2 minutes.
Junior Quinnton
Haislop (Jackson,
OH) led the RedStorm with the ﬁrst
hat trick of his collegiate career, while
senior Omar Walcott
(Kingston, Jamaica)
had two goals and
an assist and the
duo of junior Ewan
McLauchlan (Aroch,
Scotland) and sophomore Michael Garcia
(London, England)
netted two goal each.
Sophomore Nicolas
Cam Orellana (Santiago, Chile) had one
goal and assisted on
another in the winning effort, while
sophomore Macrae
Smith (South Bend,
IN) and junior Callum Malanaphy
(Stourbridge, England) had one goal
each.
Freshman Matthew
Detty (Chillicothe,
OH) contributed a
pair of assists to the
offensive onslaught,
while junior Samuel
Pedersen (Aldershot, England) and
the freshman duo of
Sebastian Borquez
(Santiago, Chile)
and Diego Montenegro (Santiago, Chile)
all had one assist.
Senior goal keeper
Richard Dearle
(Castle Donington,
England) did not
face a shot on goal in
the winning effort.
Rio ﬁnished with
a 50-4 edge in overall shots and a 26-0
advantage in shots
on goal.
Carlow goalie
Adam Myers had
14 saves in a losing
cause.
Rio Grande returns
to action on Saturday
when it hosts Point

Black Knights win Section 1 title
Point Pleasant
to host Class
AA-A Region IV
championship
Tuesday
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com

POINT PLEASANT,
W.Va. — It might have
been somewhat of a
different road, but the
Black Knights still managed to reach an ultimate destination.
The Point Pleasant boys soccer team
fulﬁlled a season-long
quest to reach the
regional ﬁnals after
knocking off second
seeded Sissonville 3-0
Thursday night in the
Class AA-A Region IV,
Section 1 championship
match held at Ohio Valley Bank Track and Field
in Mason County.
The top seeded
Black Knights (13-3-5)
notched the program’s
ﬁrst Class AA-A Region
IV title game appearance
in eight years with their
eighth consecutive victory, an outcome that
also improved Point’s
unbeaten streak at home
to 9-0-3 this fall.
PPHS picked up its
10th shutout of the season, including the seventh shutout to result in
a victory. The hosts also
managed to move on by
being solid on all three
levels of the ﬁeld.
Point Pleasant outshot
the Indians (16-6-1) by
a 21-10 overall margin,
which included an 11-7
edge in shots on goal.
More impressively, the
Black Knights mustered

a point blank attempt

Point ﬁnding some more
offense.

IN THE OPEN

350 Legend, Part II: New cartridge off to a good start
Low recoil, affordable
ammo, and the ability
to use it in states that
allow deer hunting with
straight-walled cartridges are among the reasons people are checking
out the 350 Winchester
Legend.
I ﬁrst wrote about
the 350 Legend back
in March shortly after
it was introduced by
Winchester, and in retrospect I didn’t really
know much about the
cartridge. In my mind I
was picturing something
akin to a rimless version
of the decades-old 357
Remington Maximum,
so I was immediately
intrigued.
To recap, the 350 Legend is a straight-walled
riﬂe cartridge, purportedly of .357 caliber.
That’s important to Ohio
deer hunters because it
makes it legal for deer
gun hunting in Ohio.
Our friends across the
river in West Virginia
are not concerned about
straight-walled cartridge
foolishness.
Another important
thing to know about the
350 Legend is that it is
rimless and has a maximum cartridge length
that facilitates use in the
popular AR-15 family of
ﬁrearms.
I confess I don’t like
the name of the cartridge; nothing comes
out of the gate with leg-

endary status, so calling
it the “legend” seems a
little presumptuous. It
is, after all, a niche cartridge – a niche within a
niche to be exact. I was
also put off by what I
considered exaggerated
performance claims,
comparing only portions
of its performance such
as penetration, energy
and recoil, to other
established cartridges.
Still I felt it deserved
a try, and in the past
seven months I have
been able to spend a
little time at the range
with a re-barreled AR-15
chambered in the new
cartridge. All it required
was a new barrel and
magazines.
So how does it shoot?
One of Winchester’s
claims is that the 350
Legend has less recoil
than the 450 Bushmaster – and that’s a fact.
It has substantially less
recoil than guns like the
450 Bushmaster, 444
Marlin and .45-70 Government. Recoil, or kick,
can be objectively measured, but individuals
feel it differently based
on their size, weight,
age, pain tolerance, etc.,
and I perceived it to be
somewhere in the 44
Magnum ballpark. Only
the most recoil-intolerant shooters would ﬁnd
it objectionable.
Winchester’s other
claims pertain to energy

So far, the hardest
part of getting on the
350 Legend bandwagon
is ﬁnding stuff in stock.
Several gunmakers are
offering riﬂes, while several companies are producing barrels and upper
receiver assemblies to
convert AR-15s into 350
Legends.
Winchester, Hornady, and Federal are
producing ammunition
at reasonable prices.
Ammo starts around
$10 for a box of 20 for
“plinking” ammo, and
around $18 to $21 a box
for deer hunting ammo,
which is somewhat more
affordable than other,
larger straight-walled
cartridges, all of which
makes the 350 Legend
a little less painful on
the wallet (as well as the
shoulder). When you
consider that some premium shotgun slugs cost
more than $3 per shell,
350 Legend ammunition
is a bargain.
The 350 Legend might
not be legendary, per
se, but plenty adequate,
affordable and wellmannered to boot, and
that just may be enough.
If more gunmakers jump
on board, and ammunition makers can keep it
affordable, then it may
just become a legend…
some day.
Shooters will compare
the 350 Legend to their

favorite straight-walled
cartridge, and I have
already seen a few arguments of the 45 versus
9mm variety, and that’s
ﬁne, we don’t all have to
like the same thing, and
it is nice to have choices, but at the end of the
day the only statistic
that matters is if you
can you hit where you
are aiming. Energy is no
substitute for accuracy,
and if a light-kicking gun
with affordable ammunition helps you develop
the skills and conﬁdence
to make a good shot,
then that’s great.
Hunters in other
states have already had
opportunities to use the
350 Legend in the ﬁeld
this fall, and it seems
up to the task of making
deer and wild pigs into
venison and pork chops.
Particularly it seems to
be a popular choice for
younger hunters – which
is the niche (young
hunters) within the
niche (straight-walled
cartridge hunters) I
mentioned earlier.
Youngsters in Ohio
will get a chance to try
out the 350 Legend the
weekend of Nov. 23-24
during the two-day
youth deer gun season.
