In a news release, Meigs County Prosecuting Attorney James K. Stanley stated that on March 1, Jason Hysell, 43, of Middleport, Ohio was convicted of one count of failure to comply with an order or signal of a police ofﬁcer, two counts of trafﬁcking in drugs (marijuana and methamphetamine), and two counts of having weapons while under disability. Meigs County Court of Common Pleas Judge I. Carson Crow sentenced Hysell to seven years in prison. The charges stem from two separate incidents. The ﬁrst incident occurred on May 5, 2017. According to Stanley, a Meigs County Sheriff Deputy was attempting to See PRISON | 5 Tuesday, March 6, 2018 s 50¢ Holter pleads guilty to sex offenses By Sarah Hawley shawley@aimmediamidwest.com POMEROY — A longtime fair board member and local farmer pleaded guilty on Monday to alleged sexual offenses which reportedly occurred with female teens employed on his farm. Edward J. Holter, 56, of Pomeroy, pleaded guilty to a bill of information charging three counts of gross sexual imposition, each a felony of the fourth degree. Special Prosecutor Angela R. Canepa, who is employed with the Ohio Attorney General’s Ofﬁce, represented the state at the plea hearing before Judge Dean Evans, who was appointed to hear the case. Jeff Finley represented Holter at the hearing. Canepa detailed the alleged offenses against Holter which involve three separate victims who were employed on his farm over an eightyear time frame. She stated that with the ﬁrst victim Holter would make comments and sexually harass her; attempt to move her sports bras to see her breasts; ride on the four-wheeler with her, put his arms around her with his hands up her shirt or down her pants. With the second victim, Canepa said Holter hosed her down, tried to get her to take her clothes off; grabbed her breasts and butt and tried to get her to lay in the hay with him. The third victim reported that Holter would smack her butt and make sexual comments; put his hand down her pants and panties and rub her, according to Canepa. The victims were employed at different times beginning in 2005, with the last one quitting her job following the incident in 2012. The sentencing recommendation read by Canepa calls for Holter to be sentenced to ﬁve years of community control, complete a sex offender evaluation and complete any recommended actions from that evalu- ation, resign from the Meigs County Fair Board and as a bus driver with Eastern Local (he has already retired from this position), as well as be prohibited from employing females under 18 and to not be employed in a position which would put him in close contact with minor females. He must also register as a Tier I sex offender. Canepa stated that one or more of the victims may address the court at the time of sentencing. Sentencing is scheduled for April 25 with a pre-sentence investigation to be completed before that time. Sarah Hawley is the managing editor of The Daily Sentinel.

MIDDLEPORT — The Middleport Council recently held an emergency meeting to discuss the approval of a contract for ﬁre protection with Salisbury Township. Council members in attendance were Brian Conde, George Hoffman, Carolyn French, Emerson Heighton, and Sharon Older along with Fiscal Ofﬁcer Sue Baker and Mayor Sandy Iannarelli. Middleport Fire Chief Jeff Darst commented the percent split is based off the previous ﬁve years prior to 2017. Darst said for 2017 the ﬁre department’s runs to Salisbury were doubled the usual amount. He provided the council with a cover letter and run report, along with the contract. The Contract for Fire Protection reads, “The Village agrees to furnish the services of its Fire Department, including its ﬁre apparatus within the territory of Salisbury Township, the same to answer all ﬁre calls within said territory, except when said ﬁre department and ﬁre apparatus are answering a ﬁre call or calls within the Village of Middleport or on a bonaﬁde call made in response to a mutual aid contract with any other subdivision for a period of ﬁve years from Jan. 1, 2017 to Jan. 1, 2022. The Trustees agree to pay the Village for said ﬁre protection, 37.5 percent, of the collected revenue generated by the Salisbury Township Fire Protection Levy for calendar year 2017, and for year 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021 at a percentage calculated based upon actual runs as detailed in an annual run report to be provided to the Trustees by Jan. 15 of each contract year. The Trustees will disburse payments within 30 days of receipt of revenue generated by the township’s Fire Protection Levy.

Despite the long layoff, Stringer supports the teachers. “They deserve to be paid,” she said. “They deserve to be able to have insurance.” Many teachers said they’d rather be in the classroom but believe they’ve come too far to back down. “We feel like we’re under attack constantly,” said Cody Thompson, a social studies and civics teacher at Elkins High School. “Eventually whenever you’re pushed into a corner, you’ve got to push back.” The teacher walkout over pay and beneﬁts shuttered classrooms Feb. 22. Since then, angry teachers have gone to the Capitol to press legislators to raise their pay after four years without an increase. The walkout began after Justice signed a 2 percent pay raise for next year. After an initial round of protests, the House of Delegates later approved a 5 percent increase. Then on Saturday, the state Senate approved a 4 percent raise, prompting angry union leaders to vow to stay out indeﬁnitely. The House wouldn’t agree to the Senate’s move, sending the bill to the conference committee. To make ends meet for themselves, many of these teachers have side jobs. Kristie Skidmore, an elementary school reading specialist, has a clothing shop at her home. “You’re looking at people here who every day care about other people, other families.

Let them make their own money As we grapple with the evils of money and college sports, we might want to remember Jodie Foster. The actress, who enrolled at Yale University when she was 17, had already Mitch been nominated for an Oscar, been paid for many Disney movies, and Albom Contributing even hosted “Saturday Night Live.” columnist At Yale, she studied drama, and in her freshman year, she appeared in a school theater production. Then during her summer break, she went off to make another movie. And guess what? No one got ﬁred or investigated. No one declared she would never act in a school play again. So why is college sports so different? Why is it that if a basketball player lets an agent buy him lunch, he has violated rules and put his program in hot water? Why can’t a college quarterback make his own milk commercial? Why is it OK for a college ﬂute player, on a music scholarship, to play in the school band, then get paid for a nightclub gig — but if “student-athletes” take money for playing ﬁve minutes somewhere, they’ve sacriﬁced their college eligibility forever? The answer lies in the NCAA and its antiquated yet proﬁtable adherence to amateurism. But given the insanity over a recent FBI probe that suggests major NCAA violations by many well-known schools (and why the FBI is wasting taxpayer money on these mostly non-criminal activities is beyond me), perhaps we should rethink the idea of amateurism and college sports. Especially since it’s been dead for years. If you are new to the topic, you need know only this. The president of the NCAA, Mark Emmert, makes $3 million a year. The coach of the Duke Blue Devils, Mike Krzyzewski, makes around $9 million a year. The TV broadcasting rights for college hoops were recently extended for over $1 billion a year. And the players get paid nothing. That’s not amateurism. That’s a sham. Even Emmert, under increasing pressure, seems to recognize things can’t go on this way. “We’ve got these very serious issues which require serious change,” he told the AP Friday — although his idea of “change” is questionable. But instead of schools shaking in their boots over who paid for a player’s pizza, we should rethink the whole model. Let’s try it here: The ﬁrst thing people say is “Pay the players.” After all, there’s billions coming in from TV rights and shoe deals, right? The problem is, college sports are ruled by Title IX, a federal law which demands equal treatment for men and women’s sports programs at schools. Which means if you paid the men’s football players, you might well have to pay the women’s lacrosse players — and at the same rate That’s not likely to happen. However, if the schools and the NCAA — an organization that has no parallel anywhere in the world — are going to get rich, they should at least allow athletes to do the same on their own. Which brings us to the model that Olympic sports have been using. Don’t pay for participation in competition, but allow athletes to earn money outside of it. So if a ﬁgure skater wants to do a Hertz commercial or an autograph session, he or she can. If we just allowed this for college players, and stopped policing if they met with future managers or agents, you’d eliminate a good chunk of the wasted time, money and sweaty nerves our current system produces. But there’s more. How about getting paid for non-college competition? If there are sanctioned All-Star games in the summer, why can’t an athlete get paid the way Foster got paid to make a movie? If a college kid wants to go to a camp and charge for it, why not? It may all seem radical, but that’s because we’ve gotten used to the system as it is. We’ve bought into the notion that being given a scholarship should be enough. But one side can’t be told, “That’s enough,” while the other side keeps saying, “Give us more.” This chasing of phone calls, lunch bills and bus tickets is such a colossal waste of resources. And given how rich the NCAA is, it’s hypocrisy. Yes, there is a huge issue with the shoe companies. That’s where much of this scandal begins. But the model of school-gets-millions-to-forceplayers-to-wear-shoes is wrong from the start. Until that is changed, you will have problems and inequity. As I see it, the only policing we should worry about is if a player is directly paid by someone to attend a school. That’s wrong, and is still a challenge to enforce. Plus, the NBA needs to change its rules to allow players to enter directly from high school. Forcing kids to play at college who don’t belong or want to be there is both folly and injustice. The NBA used to allow it (that’s how LeBron James got there) and the reasons it stopped are no longer strong. Meanwhile, a huge gap could be closed if the Olympic model were adopted right now. It would at least allow players some income. And who bought whom lunch wouldn’t be a federal issue.

After months of horrifying revelations about widespread sexual harassment and assault in the industry, the 90th Academy Awards presented a toothless, feel-good nod to the scandal. So many of this year’s ﬁlms feature transgressive female characters — Frances McDormand’s hell-bent mother in “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri,” Margot Robbie’s blue-collar ice dancer in “I, Tonya” — but little of that anger made it onstage. After winning for lead actress, McDormand asked every female nominee to stand and be acknowledged, a graceful gesture of support by a woman for women. But where you might have expected some righteous rage, Oscar delivered only paeans to inclusiveness. Earlier, a trio of actresses — all of whom were victimized by Harvey Weinstein — stood together onstage and declared that women were ﬁnally speaking as “a mighty chorus,” as one of them, Ashley Judd, put it. Judd stood with Annabella Sciorra and Salma Hayek, as she spoke of “Dear Basketball.” In the press room after he brieﬂy spoke onstage, the scandal did not come up. Kimmel did mention the brief controversy that enveloped Mark Wahlberg when it was revealed he had been paid $1.5 million to his costar Michelle Williams’$80-a-day rate to reshoot some scenes for the Oscar-nominated “All the Money in the World.” But of course, Wahlberg very publicly announced that he would donate that money to the #MeToo and Time’s Up movement. A powerful, symbolic moment came during the performance of the song “Stand Up for Something” by Common and Andra Day. Standing silently behind the singers was a tableau of black-clad activists, including Tarana Burke, the African American activist who ﬁrst coined the phrase “Me Too” years before the Weinstein scandal rocked the entertainment industry and spread to almost every profession. At the end of the song, she raised her arms and crossed her ﬁsts above her head. And that was as angry as anyone got. This column originally appearing in The Los Angeles Times. TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Tuesday, March 6, the 65th day of 2018. There are 300 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History On March 6, 1836, the Alamo in San Antonio, Texas, fell as Mexican forces led by General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna stormed the fortress after a 13-day siege; the battle claimed the lives of all the Texan defenders, nearly 200 strong, including William Travis, James Bowie and Davy Crockett. On this date In 1475, Italian artist and poet Michelangelo was born in Caprese (kah-PRAY’-say) in the Republic of Florence. In 1853, Verdi’s opera “La Traviata” premiered in Venice, Italy. In 1857, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Dred Scott v. Sandford, ruled 7-2 that Scott, a slave, was not an American citizen and therefore could not sue for his freedom in federal court. In 1933, a national bank holiday declared by President Franklin D. Roosevelt aimed at calming panicked depositors went into effect. Chicago Mayor Anton Cermak, wounded in an attempt on Roosevelt’s life the previous month, died at a Miami hospital at age 59.

Harvick dominates Vegas for back-toback NASCAR wins LAS VEGAS (AP) — From his dynamic opening laps to his comfortable cruise to the checkered ﬂag, Kevin Harvick was the safest bet in Sin City this weekend. Harvick’s air of inevitability increased with each lap around the Las Vegas Motor Speedway on Sunday, and the rest of the NASCAR Cup ﬁeld must be a bit worried about how they’re going to catch up this year. Harvick raced to his second straight NASCAR Cup win with a dominant performance in Vegas on Sunday, earning his 100th career win across the three national series. “There was no catching that 4 (car),” secondplace ﬁnisher Kyle Busch said. “He was on rails, and lights out.” Harvick followed up his stellar performance last weekend in Atlanta with another victory in his Stewart-Haas Racing Ford. He led a track-record 214 of the 267 laps, won all three stages and capably held off Busch’s late hometown charge to win in Vegas for the second time in four years. “These last two weeks, we’ve just hit on everything we needed to,” said Harvick, who cruised home 2.9 seconds ahead of Busch. “My (team has) done their homework on a number of things. Just really proud of everybody.” Busch got close to his second career victory in his hometown with his Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota, but couldn’t overcome the dominant leader. Kyle Larson ﬁnished third after winning the Xﬁnity Series race on Saturday, while defending champion Martin Truex Jr. was in fourth and pole-sitter Ryan Blaney in ﬁfth. Harvick has already matched his Cup win total from last season in three races — and he’s headed to Phoenix, where he has won ﬁve times since 2012. Harvick also took a moment to savor a milestone. Only Richard Petty, Kyle Busch and David Pearson have won more races across the three national circuits than Harvick, the 42-year-old Californian with plenty of good years left on his tires. “It’s been a lot of years accumulated with a lot of great race teams and people and situations,” Harvick said. “When you tag that triple-digit number to it, it really lets you realize that you’ve been fortunate to accomplish a lot of things.” Not many wins are more emphatic than Harvick’s 100th. Harvick led 144 of the ﬁrst 160 laps and comfortably won the ﬁrst two stages.

Michael Hubert ﬁlled in for him on pit road. The injury couldn’t keep Frankos down, however: He returned to the track for the race. NEW YORK (AP) — The tenacious point guard his coach calls a “pit bull” drove to the basket, but instead of putting up his go-to hook shot Zavier Simpson whipped a pass to the backup big man who became a Michigan folk hero at Madison Square Garden on Sunday. Jon Teske’s two-handed slam brought down the house and pretty much ﬁnished off No. 8 Purdue in the Big Ten From page 6 Sheridan and New Lexington also came away with a divisional title apiece.

Game two was a pitcher’s duel between Powers - a senior righthander from Janesville, WI - and OCU starter Brandon Focarett. Powers surrendered an unearned run in the ﬁrst inning thanks to a two-out error and gave up a two-out RBI single to Hayden Hufford in the sixth inning which gave the Trailblazers a 2-0 lead. Focarett blanked the RedStorm through the ﬁrst ﬁve innings of the scheduled seven-inning nightcap before the hosts knotted the score in the bottom of the sixth. Blackburn singled to right with one out and Shockley followed with a double to right-center, which moved junior pinch-runner Zac Morris to third base. David Rodriguez followed with a two-run single to rightcenter to tie the game. OCU threatened to take the lead back by loading the bases with two outs in the seventh inning, but the Trailblazers failed to score. Eric Rinehart doubled with two outs, prompting the removal of Powers in favor of junior Dalton Wilburn (Asheville, OH). The right-hander promptly issued consecutive four-pitch walks to load the bases before striking out McClure to end the threat. Rio won the game in the home eighth when Blackburn reached on a one-out walk, took second on a passed ball and scored on a two-out single to right by David Rodriguez. Rodriguez ﬁnished 3-for-4 with the three RBI in the win. Powers allowed just four hits and one earned run while walking two and fanning seven of 6-2/3 innings, but it was Wilburn who got the win in relief - his third in four decisions. Rinehart had three of the Trailblazers’ four hits in the loss. Focarett scattered six hits and allowed the two runs over 5-1/3 innings, while Logan Hill suffered the loss in relief for OCU. Rio Grande is scheduled to return to action on Wednesday afternoon, weather permitting, when 20th-ranked Campbellsville University visits for a doubleheader. First pitch for the opener is set for 1 p.m. Randy Payton is the Sports Information Director at the University of Rio Grande. Tournament championship game. With Simpson playing catalyst on both ends of the ﬂoor — running Michigan’s efﬁcient offense and leading its lock-down defense — and Teske scoring a surprising 14 points, the 15th-ranked Wolverines beat the Boilermakers 75-66. Fifth-seeded Michigan (28-7) became the ﬁrst team to repeat as Big Ten Tournament champs since Ohio State in 2010 and ‘11. Simpson ﬁnished with 10 points, ﬁve assists and ﬁve rebounds. Moe Wagner led Michigan with 17 points and was named most outstanding player of the tournament, despite playing only 17 minutes against Purdue because of foul trouble — which plagued him all week. That’s where Teske stepped in. The 7-foot1 sophomore came in averaging 3.3 points, but scored 12 in the ﬁrst half and picked up the slack guarding Purdue’s 7-2 center Isaac Haas. Simpson and Teske put an exclamation point on Michigan’s four-day Garden party with 6:02 left in the second half. Simpson drove and dished to Teske cutting to the basket. “Big Bad Jon,” as the guys call him, ﬁnished over Haas and let out a roar while chest bumping teammates on his way to the bench.

(AP) — Cincinnati coach Mick Cronin took a moment late in Sunday’s game and was enjoying the atmosphere of his team’s hard-fought regular-season ﬁnale. “I’m busy coaching, but I will admit it,” Cronin said, “during that last under-four (minute) timeout, I stopped and looked around and thought, ‘This is a great game.’” And it ended with No. 10 Cincinnati outlasting No. 11 Wichita State 62-61 on Sunday to win the regular-season title in the American Athletic Conference. Jacob Evans scored 19 points to lead Cincinnati (27-4, 16-2). Jarron Cumberland and Kyle Washington each scored 11 points for the Bearcats, and Gary Clark added 10. Clark scored Cincinnati’s ﬁnal four points, a layup with four minutes remaining and two free throws with 3:27 to play, giving Cincinnati a 62-58 lead. The Bearcats did not score again, but held on in a slugfest that featured only two baskets in the ﬁnal ﬁve minutes. “I will tell you, honestly, when both teams were playing so hard for so long, it becomes a game of attrition,” Cronin said. “And sometimes, that takes away your ability to make shots. You’re just battling so hard.” Landry Shamet and Shaquille Morris each scored 16 points for Wichita State (24-6, 14-4). The Shockers needed a victory to share the conference title and would have earned the top seed in the AAC EMPLOYMENT Help Wanted General Houses For Rent MERCHANDISE 5DYHQVZRRG &DUH &HQWHU 1113 Washington St Ravenswood WV 26164 Part-Time LPN Apply at Facility or On Indeed.com SERVICES Other Services $$$$$$$$$ BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY -RQHV 7UHH 6HUYLFH &RPSOHWH 7UHH &DUH� ,QVXUHG &UDQH� 6WXPS *ULQGLQJ �� RU �� Would to deliver deliver Wouldyou you like like to newspapers as an newspapers as an independent contractor independent contractor under under an agreement with the an agreement with Point Pleasant 5IF�1PJOU�1MFBTBOU� 3FHJTUFS Register? s Be your own boss s � day delivery s Delivery times is approx. 3 hours daily s Must be 18 years of age s Must have a valid driver’s license, dependable vehicle & provide proof of insurance s Must provide your own substitute OPERATE YOUR OWN BUSINESS WITH POTENTIAL REVENUE OVER $1,000 PER MONTH For more please email For information more information at pleaseDerrick email Morrison 5ZMFS�8PMGF at UXPMGF@civitasmedia.com�or dmorrison@aimmediamidwest.com apply person at ��5IJSE� or callin740-446-2342 ext: 2097 "WF� �(BMMJQPMJT �0) Stop by our local ofﬁce for an application: �Mon-Fri 8:30 am - 4:30 pm Autos For Sale �� )RUG )RFXV :DJRQ �� :DQWHG� /LYH LQ +RXVH .HHSHU IRU HOGHUO\ JHQWOHPDQ �� REAL ESTATE FOR RENT Apartments/Townhouses � EHGURRP DSW� LQ FRXQWU\ IUHVKO\ SDLQWHG ZLWK DSSOLDQFHV �� PLQXWHV IURP WRZQ �� 1R 3HWV �� RU �� Arts/Crafts/Hobbies +DQG 0DGH 4XLOWV 7ZLQ DQG 4XHHQ 6L]H �� Want To Buy Absolute Top Dollarsilver/gold coins, any 10k/14k/18k gold jewerly, dental gold, pre 1935 US currency, diamonds, MTS Coin Shop 151 2nd Avenue, Gallipolis. 446-2842 L.

Senior Mallory Powell (Flatwoods, KY), who earned the win in the pitcher’s circle, helped her own cause with two RBI. Powell’s two-run single capped off the six-run second, while Conkey had a two-run single and Pica hit a three-run home run - the ﬁrst long ball of her collegiate career - in the seven-run third. Conkey hit a three-run home run of her own to highlight the four-run fourth inning. Taylor Wilson went 2-for-2 with two RBI in the loss for Taylor, while triumph.

Both players had a double among their respective hit totals. Lauren Kanai started and took the loss for the Trojans. In game one, Taylor exploded for three ﬁrst inning runs and four fourth inning markers against Conkey to take a 7-0 lead, only to see the RedStorm erupt for seven runs of their own in the ﬁfth inning to tie the game. Rio then took the lead in the top of the seventh when Conkey led off with a walk, was bunted into scoring position by Powell and scored on a two-out double to left by junior Carly Skeese (Newark, OH). The dramatic rally to get the lead was shortlived for the RedStorm, though. Junior reliever Kacee Jenkins (Jackson, OH) routinely retired each of the ﬁrst two batters in the home half of the seventh before hitting Wilson with a pitch, surrendering a game-tying double to left-center by Kanai and a game-winning single off the bat of pinch-hitter Jacqueline Ryals. Hoffman and Philen had two hits each for Rio in the loss, while freshman Kayla Slutz (Navarre, OH) had a three-run double, Criner had a two-run home run and Conkey hit a solo homer in the seven-run ﬁfth. Conkey didn’t factor into the decision, but had a rare off-day in the circle. The right-hander allowed eight hits, three walks and seven runs - all earned - over just four innings. Erin Cozad had three hits, including a pair of doubles, and drove in two runs for the Trojans, while Hannah Castor went 2-for-4 with a run batted in. Kanai, the last of three Taylor pitchers, earned the win. Rio Grande is scheduled to return to action on Tuesday in a non-conference doubleheader at Bryan (Tenn.) College.

For the ﬁrst time in four years, the confetti rained down on someone other than Maryland after Kelsey Mitchell scored 25 points and No. 13 Ohio State beat 17th-ranked Terrapins to win the Big Ten Women’s Basketball Tournament Championship 79-69. “This was really special. We have ﬁve seniors who have really worked hard,” Ohio State coach Kevin McGuff said. “For them to win this championship, it’s really special.

The Buckeyes started the second quarter with a 16-2 run before the Terrapins ﬁnally called timeout in an attempt to slow Ohio State’s momentum. The scoring onslaught gave the tournament’s top seeded Buckeyes the cushion they needed when the Terrapins made a run in the second half. Maryland ended the third quarter on a 12-2 scoring run and continued to climb back into the game early on in the fourth. The Terrapins pulled within two points with about four minutes left to play in the game but the Buckeyes were ready for it and refused to buckle under the pressure of a Terrapins’ comeback. “Teams make runs, especially playing in the Big Ten Tournament,” Mitchell said. “It feels really good. It’s nice to take home some hardware.” Stephanie Mavunga ﬁnished with 15 points and 12 rebounds, Sierra Calhoun scored 13 and Linnae Harper added 14 points and 11 rebounds. The Buckeyes got off to a slow start shooting 25 percent from the ﬂoor while the Terrapins hit 58 percent from the ﬁeld in the ﬁrst quarter. In the second quarter, however, it was an entirely different game. Maryland shot an abysmal 23 percent while Ohio State shot 57 percent from the ﬂoor. “Tonight, one quarter we fell short and it came back to bite us,” Kristen Confroy said. “I think our players grew up in this tournament. That’s what March is all about.” Kaila Charles scored 20 points for Maryland and Kristen Confroy added 17 points for the Terrapins. Despite the poor second quarter that ultimately decided Maryland’s fate, head coach Brenda Frese is optimistic about the Terrapins’ upcoming tournament run because of the effort they gave in the second half. “Blow for blow, I think our second half was very indicative of who we are and how we want to play (in the tournament),” Frese said. “Everything that we’ve been through, you continue to see the (quality) character and the culture in our locker room. I told them in the locker room, ‘man, I’m just so proud of this team.’” The Buckeyes (26-6, 12-4) have now won 11 straight games against Big Ten Conference opponents, a streak that includes both regular season and conference tournament games. Sunday night’s championship game was the ﬁrst conference title for the Buckeyes since 2011. Like Maryland, Ohio State will await its seeding for the NCAA Tournament and is also likely to have a few tournament games at home. Ohio State’s victory over Maryland was the ﬁrst ever loss for the Terrapins in the Big Ten Conference Tournament. Prior to Sunday night, Maryland was 11-0 in the conference tournament. The Terrapins were making their fourth straight appearance in the championship game under Frese, who is 11-2 in the Big Ten Conference Tournament (11-1 with Maryland, 0-1 with Minnesota). � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
