Phenom From page 1A with a spinal contusion and the possibility of never walking again. Since then, Shazier has been on the road to a remarkable recovery, from walking again to dancing at his wedding in 2019. While working on his own recovery, Shazier has partnered with the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) to highlight 50 people with stories of inspiration and recovery. Shazier is choosing 50 people from UPMC—50 being his jersey number—who have not let their struggle slow them down. Sweeney did not know about the program until she received the call that she was chosen. “I had no idea until the marketing people had called me,” Sweeney said. “They said, ‘Hey, Ryan read your story, and he’s chosen you as one of his 50 Phenoms.’ I was like, holy cow that’s awesome. I mean, I don’t see myself as anything other than just mom Brandy.” She said she almost did not believe it. “At ﬁrst I was like, is this for real? I didn’t realize it was only going to be the 50 people and then I thought about it and was like, all these people and I was one of them,” Sweeney said. Sweeney was pregnant with her third child in 2014 when she woke up having a difﬁcult time breathing. After being seen by her doctor she was diagnosed with peripartum cardiomyopathy, which is heart failure due to pregnancy. “I woke up, and I was just so completely swollen,” Sweeney said during her 50 Phenom interview. “They came into the room and my husband and I were sitting there, and they said, ‘You’re in congestive heart failure.’ And then they kind of walked out. UPMC | Courtesy photo Football star Ryan Shazier and Brandy Sweeney, pictured, meet for an interview. And I looked at my husband and I just started bawling (because) I’m like, ‘What the heck? I am just pregnant; I am not in congestive heart failure and dying.’” Sweeney delivered a healthy daughter ﬁve weeks early and a few days later was sent to UPMC in Pittsburgh. After a month in UPMC Sweeney received a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) in hopes to strengthen her heart. “They were hoping that that was going to give my heart the opportunity to heal, but after a couple of months they had checked and then the LVAD became a bridge to transplant,” Sweeney said. “I was on the list for a total of 39 days.” With family at home looking after her two boys and newborn daughter, Sweeney said it was a time of faith and difﬁcult decisions. “That was my husband’s hardest decision, (going) to Pittsburgh with his dying wife or stay with our newborn baby,” Sweeney said during her interview with Shazier. “He did opt to go with me because we knew that she was in good hands, and we had family that would go and see my daughter while she was in the NICU.” Through it all, Sweeney says faith and love got her through it. “I was big on faith. I truly believed that every- thing was going to be okay because I gave it all to God and I knew He was going to take care of me,” Sweeney said. “I would say deﬁnitely consider becoming an organ donor because had it not been for my donor, my three kids would not have a mother here today. “Through the whole thing I felt so much, like I said in that video; like love was one of the biggest things I felt through the whole thing,” she said. “My community showed me love, my family and then my donor… didn’t have a clue that he was going to save my life someday, but he showed love for a stranger. A selfless act by deciding to become an organ donor.” Along with being featured, Sweeney was interviewed personally by Shazier and received a signed jersey after hanging out with him. “He was a super nice, down-to-earth guy,” Sweeney said. “My middle kid, Bryson, thinks they are like best friends now because they sat down and played video games.” Sweeney was the fourth phenom to be featured. “It’s kind of cool because they truly have picked people, you know, all different things have happened to them and they have had to overcome many different things,” Sweeney said. While the overall situation is not a position anyone wants to ﬁnd themselves in, Sweeney is quick to say that she would not change a thing. “I don’t think ‘why me?’ It’s ‘why not me?’ I truly believe God chose me for a reason to go through this,” Sweeney said. “Whether it’s just to promote organ donation and maybe potentially save other’s lives because someone has registered to become a donor. It could be because I do sometimes stop in the hospital on the heart transplant ﬂoor and I talk to some of the patients who have just gone through it, if it’s just to show them hope. I don’t know the exact reason, but I think there was an actual reason that I was chosen to go through this.” While Sweeney does not have any speciﬁc projects in the works, she plans to continue her promotion of organ donor awareness. “I don’t stress the small stuff as much and I appreciate the small stuff more,” she said.

The government faced a setback from a threejudge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that may prove temporary if President Donald Trump’s administration appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court, which has consistently sided with Trump on immigration and border security policies. The “Remain in Mexico” policy, known ofﬁcially as “Migrant Protection Protocols,” took effect in January 2019 in San Diego and gradually spread across the southern border. Nearly 60,000 people have been sent back to wait for hearings, and ofﬁcials believe it is a big reason why illegal border crossings plummeted about 80% from a 13-year high in May. Reaction to the decision was swift among immigration lawyers and advocates who have spent months ﬁghting with the administration over a program they see as a humanitarian disaster, subjecting hundreds of migrants to violence, kidnapping and extortion in dangerous Mexican border cities. Hundreds more have been living in squalid encampments just across the border, as they wait for their next court date. Advocates planned to have immigrants immediately cross the border and present the court decision to authorities Friday, with group Human Rights First hand-delivering a copy to U.S. Customs and Border Protection ofﬁcers at a bridge connecting Laredo, Texas, and Nuevo Laredo, Mexico. Lawyers were hoping to get their clients before U.S. immigration court judges. The decision interrupted some court cases. Immigration Judge Philip Law in San Diego delayed a ﬁnal hearing on a Honduran man’s asylum case to April 17 after a government attorney couldn’t answer his questions about the effect of ruling, which temporarily halts the policy during legal challenges. The government attorney said she asked her supervisor how to address the ruling and that he didn’t know what to do either. In El Paso, an administrator came to tell a judge of the ruling as he heard the case of a Central American mother and her partner. The couple cried when they learned they could get into the U.S. with restrictions. The couple and their two young children will be put into government detention to wait and they won’t have to return to Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. “Do you guys understand that?” Herbert asked through an interpreter. “There was a pretty signiﬁcant change in the law in the middle of your testimony.” with disinAccording fectant will to the Ohio help reduce Department of the spread of Health, “The germs.

Remembering the flood of 1937 By Dean Wright deanwright@aimmediamidwest. com GALLIPOLIS — With ﬂooding often taking place in the Ohio Valley in the early portions of the year, Ohio Valley Publishing takes a look back at historic photographs and stories run in the Gallipolis Daily Tribune during the time of Gallia’s worst period of ﬂooding in 1937. As reported in the Daily Tribune and written by The Associated Press, January 27, 1937, “Compulsory evacuation of millions — embracing all persons living within 50 miles of both sides of the Mississippi river from Cairo, Ill., to New Orleans — has been ordered by the United States Army high command as the mighty ﬂood of the gorged Ohio river swept on to threaten new heights of disaster. Thirty-ﬁve thousand motor trucks were immediately mobilized to carry out the greatest exodus in history. Secretary of War Harry Woodring, acting swiftly in America’s greatest emergency since the World War, announced headquarters would be established at Jackson, Mississippi. With the army of homeless swelled to 750,000, the toll of known dead by drowning reached 137. Hundreds more are missing, and estimated property damage soared far beyond $300,000,000.” The story further reported that it took four days for the waters to rise to record height in the Ohio River Valley. J.R. Gwinn, then Gallipolis City Manager, requested the public use no more water than what was absolutely necessary. There were to be no boats of any kind in the streets for sight seeing, but only in cases of real necessity. Telephones were not to be used unless for emergency and individuals found on the streets late at night “unemployed” would be subject to the penalties of loitering ordinances. Businesses selling intoxicating liquor were closed and police were FLOOD GAUGE The great flood of 1937 saw the highest recorded river crest in Gallipolis at 69.60 feet, narrowly beating the 1913 flood which saw a crest of 67.90 feet. In Pomeroy and Point Pleasant, the 1937 flood was the second highest crests recorded. In Pomeroy it was 67.8 feet, one foot lower than the 1913 flood, while in Point Pleasant it was 62.70 feet, .10 feet lower than the 1913 flood.

At its conclusion, a spokesman issued the following statement: ‘Due to a misunderstanding, it has been thought by some that the Chamber of Commerce was operating as a Courtesy photo | Tawney Studio relief unit.

The U.S. Congress was reported to have appropriated $790,000,000 to be allocated to ﬂood relief to address the 1937 ﬂood disaster. Dean Wright is a staff reporter for Ohio Valley Publishing.

She was my neighbor, a cute little thing who interviewed me once about my favorite movie. At the time, I liked “Thelma and Louise.” And I always bought Girl Scout cookies from her. Recently, Kate Owen Haldeman of Columbia, South Carolina, just had her 28th birthday. I keep up with her on her world travels with her husband, Dr. Stewie Haldeman, on Facebook and learn about her college degrees and the important work she is doing. Kate, however, will always be to me that little girl selling Girl Scout cookies. She has been replaced in that role, however, by June Essinger, a granddaughter of a friend of mine whom I’ve never seen in person. As an option for customers, June offers options for her cookie sales online. My husband is fond of telling the story of the Haldeman days when a Vivian Piqua law enforcement ofﬁcer caught Blevins me speeding. I had mega boxes of Contributing cookies in the back seat of my car. I columnist asked him if he’d like to have a box. He declined, but I noticed as he handed me my ticket that he had subtracted 10 miles from my speed. Score one for the Girl Scouts. I was a Girl Scout once upon a time in the small town of Cumberland, Kentucky. I didn’t earn badges or go on camping trips, but I saw a side of my maternal grandmother, Viva Moore Adams, that has always stayed with me. She was a Republican, very conservative, a leader in a host of Masonicafﬁliated organizations in the community as well as at Central Baptist Church. When school photos were taken the year I was a Girl Scout, I wore my scout uniform and a big smile. Our leader was an outsider, living in an apartment over Fields Feed and Grain on what we referred to as “Back Street,” and her husband was a union organizer. For the ﬁrst time, I saw my grandmother move out of the tightly-restricted social structure in Cumberland to embrace this outsider. I don’t know what they talked about, what made them friends. I only know they were. And in about a year, the union organizer and his wife left town. I assume he felt he was leaving his work with the United Mine Workers of America in good hands. What was so strange to me about my grandmother’s usual behavior was that my mother, Opal Moore Bowling, had always taught us to judge people, as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., would advocate later, by “the content of their character.” Lesson learned: that in certain circumstances individuals can alter their customary behavior and judge folks by their actions as opposed to their social status. I solicited comments from my Facebook friends on the roles Girl Scouts, which Dr. King had indicated in 1956 as “a force for integration,” had played in their lives: �>[b[d�7bWjehh[#;lWdi"�9^Wdd[b�?ibWdZ"�9Wb_fornia, says of her daughter Luna that selling Girl Scout cookies has afforded this once shy little girl the “opportunity to practice using her voice.” �<eh�A[bbo�C[jp"�C_dd[Wfeb_i"�C_dd[iejW"�i[bbing Girl Scout cookies enabled her to see the world in a more comprehensive way as she observed “ a man in a kilt playing bagpipes in his back yard,” a “woman covered with ﬂour who was frying chicken,” an outcast from her school whose residence had no curtains, no electricity, no running water, and was furnished with a single shabby upholstered chair. Other stories were lighter: �:ebeh[i�:[dd[^o�"�IWd�7djed_e"�J[nWi"�W�jheef� leader, indicated that it rained every time she took her troop camping and that when they tried to cook biscuits over a ﬁre, the biscuits always fell into the ﬁre. As a Girl Scout, she sold cookies for 50 cents a box (Mine were $4.00 this year), and her generous mother bought her a bike so she could earn a merit badge. �:e�c[ceh_[i�e\�=_hb�IYekji�bWij�\eh[l[h5�9Wheb� Kozak, Toledo, Ohio, was in a restaurant at Point Place 21 years after she was a troop leader at Longfellow Elementary School, and one of her former troop members recognized her. In conclusion, in addition to business concepts taught with cookie sales and a host of skill building merit badges, Girl Scouts are encouraged to be prepared and to do a good turn daily. The Girl Scout law further indicates what girls should strive to be and do: honest and fair, friendly and helpful, considerate and caring, courageous and strong, responsible for what they do and say, respectful of themselves and others, respectful of authority, a wise user of resources. And all of this is intended to “make the world a better place.” Would that all young American girls could beneﬁt from participating in Girl Scouts or an organization with similar values. Additionally, I still have a few boxes left over from my 2020 purchase if you’d like to sample them. Vivian B. Blevins.

THEIR VIEW We indeed reap what we sow Editor’s Note: We’re happy to report that former weekly columnist Pat Haley has submitted the ﬁrst of his “periodic” columns — which we hope he will write periodically at the least. Grocery shopping has never been one of my favorite pastimes. A routine trip to Kroger sometimes takes us an hour or more because we often run into friends and neighbors who want to chat, and we always take time to talk. Last Monday, Brenda and I made one of our trips to Kroger to pick up a few items. I tend to get what I need quickly while my wife is, shall we say, a more deliberate shopper. After about 40 minutes of comparison shopping, I decided to seek out a place to sit down to wait for Brenda to ﬁnish shopping. Although my favorite spot to sit is outside in one the swings or lawn chairs, there wasn’t any of those around with it being a cold day of winter, so I decided to take my place inside on the long bench across from the shopping carts. Before long several people had stopped to say “hello” and I was enjoying the social interaction. I happened to be wearing a baggy set of sweatpants, since Brenda and I had exercised earlier in the day. When Brenda ﬁnished shopping, I left my cozy spot and we headed home with our groceries. glad I was to be Once home, talking about I emptied my the church and pockets only to religion that evediscover my wallet ning.

Letters should be emailed to the Gallipolis Daily Tribune at ourselves as good human beings.” It was obvious after a few minutes of conversation with Evonne that she cared deeply about the welfare of others and returning the wallet and eventually ﬁnding its owner gave her a sense of joy. “Where did you lose the wallet?” she asked curiously. “I think it slid out of my pocket when I was sitting on the bench at Kroger’s,” I replied. “Did you ﬁnd it underneath the bench?” “Evonne paused for a moment and said, “No, it was on a shelf inside the ladies’ restroom.” Someone else must have found the wallet and took it into the bathroom and discarded it for someone else to ﬁnd. Thankfully, it fell into the compassionate hands of an honest person. I know our small town is well-known for its honesty and integrity, but it is good to be reminded from time-totime there are still today many more good people in the world than there are bad.

Buffalo holds off Wahama By Alex Hawley ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com BUFFALO, W.Va. — The regular season didn’t net a win, just a whole lot of growth and promise for the future. The Wahama boys basketball team fell to nonconference host Buffalo by a 71-58 count in the season ﬁnale for both teams on Thursday in Putnam County, with WHS freshmen accounting for 43 of the White Falcons’ season-high in points. Wahama (0-22) trailed the Bison (8-14) by a 18-14 clip at the end of the ﬁrst quarter, with ﬁve different White Falcons scoring in the period. The hosts poured in 23 points in the second stanza, and headed into the half with a 41-27 lead. Buffalo then added one to its advantage with a 14-to-13 third quarter, and led 55-40 with eight minutes remaining. WHS ended with its best period of the night, outscoring Buffalo 18-to-16 over the ﬁnal eight minutes. In the 71-58 setback, the White Falcons made 10-of-14 (71.4 percent) foul shots, to go with 21 ﬁeld goals, including six trifectas. The Bison were 12-for-17 (70.6 percent) at the free throw line, while making 22 two-pointers and ﬁve triples. Leading the way for the White Falcons, freshmen Harrison Panko-Shields and Michael VanMatre scored 15 and 14 points respectively. WHS senior Abram Pauley was next with 12 markers, half of which came from beyond the arc. Josiah Lloyd hit a team-best three triples en route to 11 points, while Adam Groves and Ethan Gray rounded out the team total with three points apiece. Alec Hanshaw paced BHS with 19 points on the strength of nine ﬁeld goals. Noah Thompson made a game-best four three-pointers on his way to 16 points, while Ian Thompson tallied 10 in the win. Adam Slaman was next with eight points, followed by Jackson England with six. Alex Fowler and David Armstrong both came up with four points, while Nate Gibson and Anthony Ballard scored two each. Next, Wahama travels to Ravenswood to open the Class A Region IV, Section 1 tournament on Saturday. © 2020 Ohio Valley Publishing, all rights reserved.

Point coasting along at state By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com HUNTINGTON, W.Va. — There’s only one piece of school history left to rewrite. The Point Pleasant wrestling team is well on its way to the program’s ﬁfth Class AA-A title, but the Big Blacks still have some unﬁnished business to attend to Saturday at the 73rd annual WVSSAC Wrestling Championships being held at Mountain Health Arena in Cabell County. The Big Blacks have all but locked up their second straight Class AA crown after storming out to a sizable 148-point lead through two days and three sessions of competition. The Red and Black — with 14 individual state qualiﬁers — still have a dozen competitors going into Saturday’s ﬁnal two sessions, including a program-best nine weight class ﬁnalists on Saturday night. PPHS — which is 37-7 overall after two days of matches — currently sits atop the Class AA-A scoreboard with 230 points, with current runner-up Braxton County trailing by a substantial margin with 82 team points. Fairmont Senior (77.5), Oak Glen (72) and Greenbrier West (68) currently round out the top ﬁve spots after Session 3. Point Pleasant senior Wyatt Stanley gains leverage on an opponent during a 220-pound Class AA-A opening round match Thursday night at Mountain Health Arena in Huntington, W.Va. The defending Class AA-A champion Big Blacks have assured themselves of a dozen top six podium ﬁnishes, which matches the program record set by the 2012 squad. That 2012 team — which was the last of a 3-peat state championship effort before being bumped up to Class AAA in 2013 — was the previous standard-bearer for the program until this weekend. The 2012 team set school records for most points (224), most state ﬁnalists (6), and largest margin of victory (85) at a single state tournament over ﬁve sessions. The 2012 squad also held the previous mark for consecutive wins to start a tournament with 11. Point Pleasant opened Thursday night’s ﬁrst session with a perfect 14-0 record and was into its second match of Session 2 before suffering a setback. PPHS ended up going 25-3 after two full rounds in the winner’s bracket and ended Session 2 with a 26-5 overall record. The Big Blacks went 9-2 in championship semiﬁnal bouts on Friday night and also ended the third session with a 10-2 mark, which includ- ed a key 11-2 major decision for Mackandle Freeman in the consolation bracket. Freeman — a sophomore competing in his ﬁrst-ever state tournament — secured a spot on the 113-pound podium with the triumph, but can ﬁnish no higher than third. Seniors Logan Southall (170) and Wyatt Stanley (220) suffered their ﬁrst setbacks in the championship semiﬁnals. Both compete in Saturday afternoon’s fourth session and will ﬁnish on the podium, but only as high as third place. Senior Jacob Muncy (285) and sophomore Brayden Connolly (182) suffered a pair of losses during Session 2, but each grappler did score a pinfall victory in the opening round before having their respective seasons come to an end. Point Pleasant has had multiple champions at the same state tournament seven times in program history, as well as producing three state champions at one state meet on ﬁve different occasions. The Big Blacks have nine chances to come away with a recordbreaking four state titles, and ﬁve of those weight class ﬁnalists were in the same position a year ago.

The committee discussed requiring players who come out of the game after an injury timeout to sit out more than the one play that is currently required, possibly four plays or the rest of an offensive possession. But that could encourage players to try to play through legitimate injuries, Steve Shaw said. “We didn’t want to incent a guy if he’s injured not to come out,” Steve Shaw said. Steve Shaw said the plan is to ask coaches to police themselves in regards to coaching players to fake injuries. If it persists, the committee will re-address it next year and could be forced to crack down. David Shaw said the word will be spread through the American Football Coaches Association and he hopes coaches will hold each other accountable. The committee will also ask conferences to monitor. “For us as coaches, it’s a tactic that lacks integrity.” David Shaw said. “It was evident enough for us to talk about. It was a bad enough look for us to talk about.” by an 8-6 count. Wahama currently sits in a tie for 38th place, joining Calhoun County with nine points apiece.

Associated Press Point From page 1B Junior Isaac Short (120), as well as sophomores Derek Raike (132) and Justin Bartee (138), were state champions last winter and all three are gunning for repeat accolades. Juniors Christopher Smith (126) and Mitchell Freeman (145) are again in ﬁnals after placing second last year. Seniors Zac Samson (160) and Juan Marquez (195) are appearing in their ﬁrst championship ﬁnals, as are juniors Parker Henderson (106) and Wyatt Wilson (152). Only Henderson — a ﬁrst-time state qualiﬁer — has never earned a podium ﬁnish out of the nine state ﬁnalists for Point Pleasant. Wahama scored at least one point at the state level for the 11th time in the last 13 tournaments, as both of its competitors notched at least one victory from the ﬁrst two sessions. The White Falcons, however, will not be bringing home the program’s ﬁrst state champion or a podium placer as both of their qualiﬁers were eliminated by the end of the third session. Senior Trevor Hunt posted a 6-4 win at 145 pounds during Session 1, but then dropped a 9-3 decision in the quarterﬁnal round Friday morning. Hunt did earn a pinfall win in his ﬁrst consolation match, but dropped a 5-1 decision later Friday night. Freshman Kase Stewart dropped a 5-3 decision in his state debut at 132 pounds Thursday night, but rallied with a pinfall win in Session 2 before falling in the second consolation round Bryan Walters can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 2101.

Asbury transformed its ﬁve-point deﬁcit at the close of the ﬁrst period into a ﬁve-point halftime lead and then scored the ﬁrst bucket of the second half for a 48-41 advantage with 9:45 left in the third quarter, but Rio Grande responded with a 16-0 run over the next ﬁve minutes and took a 57-48 lead after a three-pointer by freshman Reagan Willingham (Ashville, OH) with 4:40 left in the quarter. The Eagles never led again, but they did forge a 70-70 tie after Amie Conley hit one of two free throw attempts with 9:07 remaining in the game. The RedStorm responded again, though, scoring 15 of the game’s next 18 points to take their largest lead of the night, 85-73, after a Willingham three-pointer with 6:19 to play. Asbury made things tight in the closing moments, pulling to within two after a jumper by Sarah King made it 88-86 with 1:55 remaining. A chance to force another tie came with Autumn Herriford at the free throw line and 15 seconds remaining, but Herriford — who was 10-for-10 at the charity stripe to that point in the game — missed both attempts.

OH-70175115 RIO GRANDE, Ohio — Prior to his team’s post-season opener against Asbury University on Wednesday night, University of Rio Grande head coach David Smalley said his team’s best chance for success might be exploiting the Eagles’ weakness in and around the basket. But as things turned out, the RedStorm ended up beating their guests at their own game — the three-point goal. Rio Grande tied a single-game season-high with 15 three-pointers, including seven by Kaylie Apperson, en route to a 90-89 victory in the quarterﬁnal round of the River States Conference Women’s Basketball Championship at the Newt Oliver Arena. The RedStorm, the tourney’s No. 2 seed out of the league’s East Division, improved to 19-12 with the win and advanced to Saturday’s semiﬁnal round to face West Division No. 1 seed Indiana University Southeast. Asbury, the No. 3 seed from the West Division, lost for the second time in as many outings against Rio this season and ﬁnished at 20-11. “They’re well-coached and they kind of threw me a curveball by coming out in a zone. It put us back on our heels a little bit and we had to make some adjustments,” said Smalley. “We wanted to get the ball inside, but we didn’t have that luxury because they were packing it in Asbury’s Faith Osborne drilled a three-pointer as time expired to set the ﬁnal score. Apperson’s 21 points led a quartet of doubledigit scorers for Rio. Willingham and fellow freshman Hailey Jordan (Columbus, OH) netted 14 points each and freshman Lexi Woods (Waverly, OH) had 10 points to go along with a career-high 17 rebounds. Sophomore Avery Harper (Seaman, OH) added 11 rebounds in the winning effort, while Holden — who didn’t score until the 2:13 mark of the third quarter — ﬁnished with seven points, nine rebounds, a game-high 10 assists and two blocked shots. The RedStorm outrebounded the Eagles, 55-31. Herriford tied a career-high with 25 points to lead Asbury. She also had a team-high four assists and two steals. King added a seasonhigh 21 points off the bench in a losing cause for the Eagles, while Zaria Napier contributed 18 points and a teamhigh eight rebounds. Rio Grande’s semiﬁnal game against IU Southeast is scheduled for a 1 p.m. tip at the Student Activities Building in New Albany, Ind. The winner will host the tournament title game next Tuesday at 7 p.m. The RedStorm defeated the Grenadiers in their regular season meeting, 82-80, on Jan. 11 in New Albany. �SPORTS 4B Sunday, March 1, 2020 Sunday Times-Sentinel RedStorm softball drops Bryan, William Carey By Randy Payton NAIA preseason Top 25, improved to 4-8 with the wins.

Lowery lifts Hannan past Irish, 79-45 Los Angeles deputies By Bryan Walters shared Kobe Bryant crash photos bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com ASHTON, W.Va. — It was a career night … the kind that no other Mason County basketball player has ever known. Senior Casey Lowery hit a dozen trifectas and poured in a career-high 38 points on Thursday night while guiding the Hannan boys basketball team on to a 79-45 victory over visiting Holy Family Christian School in a non-conference matchup in Mason County. The host Wildcats (4-18) made an impressive 21 shots from behind the arc, with Lowery leading that charge with a half-dozen through the end of three quarters of play. Lowery was able to net another half-dozen 3-pointers down the stretch run, allowing the 6-foot-4 guard to surpass the previous Mason County mark for trifectas (11) set by Hannan’s Summer Stover back in 2008. The Blue and White had nine different players reach the scoring column, despite not attempting a single free throw in the triumph. HHS led 22-10 after eight minutes and took a 36-16 lead into the break. Lowery — who had eight, six and six points, respectively, in each of the ﬁrst three quarters — helped the hosts establish a 52-36 cushion entering the ﬁnale before completing his recordsetting night.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Authorities are investigating whether deputies shared graphic photos of the helicopter crash scene where Kobe Bryant, his 13-year-old daughter and seven others were killed, according to a newspaper report. The Los Angeles Times reported that a public safety source with knowledge of the events had seen one of the photos on the phone of another ofﬁcial in a setting that was not related to the investigation of the crash. He said the photos showed the scene and victims’ remains. The source spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the allegations. Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Deputy Maria Lucero told The Associated Press on Friday that “the matter is being looked into.” The Association for Los Angeles Deputy Sheriffs, the union that represents rank-and-ﬁle deputies, declined to comment speciﬁcally on the allegations. “As with all investigations, we will aggressively represent our members and preserve their rights,” the union said in a statement Friday. The Times reported that it’s unclear how widely the photos might have been disseminated and who was involved. It’s additionally unclear whether the deputies had taken the photos themselves or received them from someone else. Capt. Jorge Valdez, a spokesman for the sheriff’s department, said the department had contacted the victims’ families because of the newspaper’s inquiries. Bryant and the others were killed in the Jan. 26 helicopter crash northwest of Los Angeles were traveling to a youth basketball tournament at Bryant’s sports facility in Thousand Oaks. The cause of the crash is undetermined. Bryant and his daughter Gianna, whose team was coached by her father, were honored at a public memorial Monday at Staples Center, where Bryant starred for most of his 20-year career with the Los Angeles Lakers. A report by the National Transportation Safety Board stated there weren’t any signs of engine failure from the wreckage recovered from the crash site. The pilot, Ara Zobayan, had nearly navigated the helicopter out of blinding clouds when it turned and plunged into the mountainside. Bryant’s widow, Vanessa, ﬁled a wrongful death lawsuit Monday, alleging that Zobayan was careless and negligent by ﬂying in cloudy conditions and should have aborted the ﬂight. The lawsuit names Island Express Helicopters Inc., operator of the service, and Island Express Holding Corp., owner of the craft. It also targets pilot Ara Zobayan’s representative or successor, listed only as “Doe 1” until a name can be determined. Also killed in the crash were Orange Coast College baseball coach John Altobelli, his wife, Keri, and their daughter Alyssa; Christina Mauser, who helped Bryant coach the girls’ basketball team; and Sarah Chester and her daughter Payton. Alyssa and Payton were Gianna’s teammates.

Major League Baseball and the players’ association agreed to make players not likely to be on 26-man major league rosters available for the Americas qualifying tournament, to be played in Arizona from March 22-26. When the U.S. stumbled in its ﬁrst chance to qualify, at the Premier12 tournament in November, only players not on 40-man big league rosters were eligible for selection and the 28 Americans at the Premier12 combined for a career 2.1 Wins Above Replacement, according to Baseball Reference. The change makes the roster rule similar to the one in place the last time baseball was included in the Olympics and could also beneﬁt other nations with players under contract to big league organizations. For the 2008 Games in Beijing, players were eligible if they were not on 25-man big league rosters as of June 26 — about seven weeks before the Aug. 13 Olympic opener. The timing of the Americas qualifying tournament makes player selection difﬁcult. Nations must submit 26-man rosters on March 11 and can make changes through March 20. The MLB season does not start until March 26, so some clubs will not have made ﬁnal roster decisions. The U.S. was three outs from qualifying last November at the Premier12. Matt Clark hit a tying home run off former St. Louis pitcher Brandon Dickson leading off the bottom of the ninth inning, Efren Navarro had a broken-bat single against Caleb Thielbar to drive in the winning run in the 10th and Mexico beat the Americans 3-2. At the Americas tournament, the U.S. opens against Nicaragua on March 22 at Surprise, plays the Dominican Republic the following NEW YORK (AP) — Kerwin Danley became the ﬁrst African American umpire crew chief in Major League Baseball when a series of promotions, additions and retirements were announced Thursday. The moves included Alfonso Marquez being elevated to the second Hispanic crew chief in MLB history. Crew chiefs Jeff Kellogg, Dana DeMuth, Gary Cederstrom and Mike Everitt have retired. Kellogg and Everitt will move into jobs as MLB umpire supervisors. Dan Iassogna and Jim Reynolds were promoted to crew chiefs. Ramon De Jesus, who worked his ﬁrst big league game in 2016 as a minor league ﬁll-in, moved up and became the ﬁrst Dominican-born umpire on the MLB staff. Also getting fulltime jobs in the majors were Ryan Blakney, Chris Segal and Jansen Visconti. Nic Lentz also joined day at Tempe and ﬁnishes Group B against Puerto Rico on March 24 in Surprise. Canada, Colombia, Cuba and Venezuela are in Group A. The top two teams in each group advance to a super round, with headto-head group results carrying over. The super round winner joins host Japan, Israel, Mexico and South Korea in the six-nation Olympic ﬁeld. The second- and thirdplace nations advance to a ﬁnal qualifying tournament from April 1-5 in Taiwan, joining a ﬁeld that will include Australia, China, the Netherlands and Taiwan. Baseball was an Olympic event from 1992-08. Cuba won three gold medals, the U.S. one (2000) and South Korea one (2008). The sport has been restored for the Tokyo Oympics and is likely to be dropped again for 2024. This year’s Olympic event will be played at Fukushima and Yokohama from July 29 to Aug. 8. the MLB umpire roster, replacing the late Eric Cooper. The 58-year-old Danley has worked two World Series and 10 other postseason rounds, along with two All-Star Games. He called his ﬁrst game in the majors in 1992 and was hired to the MLB staff in 1998. Danley played college ball at San Diego State as a teammate of future Hall of Fame outﬁelder Tony Gwynn and current Colorado manager Bud Black. In a neat coincidence, Danley was the ﬁrst base umpire when Gwynn got his 3,000th hit during a 1999 game in Montreal and gave his former teammate a hug by the bag. There have been about 10 full-time African American umpires in the majors since Emmett Ashford ascended to become the ﬁrst in 1966. There have been several blacks in MLB umpire leadership positions, including Peter Woodfork, senior vice president of baseball operations, supervisor Cris Jones and the late Chuck Meriwether, a longtime big league umpire who became a supervisor. The 47-year-old Marquez joins former ump Richie Garcia as Hispanic crew chiefs. Marquez was the ﬁrst Mexican-born umpire to work in the majors, starting in 1999. Marquez has worked three World Series, 15 other postseason rounds and two AllStar Games. DeMuth was a major league umpire for 36 years and called ﬁve World Series. Kellogg also earned ﬁve World Series assignments while spending more than 27 years on the staff. Cederstrom was at second base for Game 7 of the World Series last year, the fourth time he worked the Fall Classic over 26 years. Everitt was an MLB umpire for 21 years and had three World Series assignments. NFL scouting combine family affair for lucky few kids wish they had.” Reed and Winﬁeld are among some half dozen players in Indianapolis this week with famous fathers, uncles or brothers who have played in the NFL. LSU TE Thaddeus Moss The son of Hall of Fame receiver Randy Moss said his famous father is a great resource growing up. “He’s helped me all the way up to this point in my career. He’s been through a lot and seen a lot, so he has answers for everything,” the younger Moss said. “And this process itself, it’s nothing new. It’s nothing changed.” Among his fondest childhood memories was the Patriots’ 18-1 season when his father caught 23 of Tom Brady’s 50 touchdown passes. “Meeting Tom Brady when I was younger, I was sitting there starstruck,” Moss said. Catching a pass from Brady now “it’d mean a lot,” Moss said. “Just to catch a touchdown pass, period, in the NFL would mean a lot. To catch it from Tom Brady, knowing that he threw a good amount of touchdown passes to my father, it would be a good story.” TCU WR Jalen Reagor His father, Montae Reagor, was a defensive linemen for nine years in the NFL and played for the Broncos, Colts and Eagles. “He’s helped me a lot, just giving me info, giving me insight, letting me know what to do, what not to do, and the ins and outs of the game,” the younger Reagor said. Reagor said his fondest childhood memory of his father was “him winning the Super Bowl and then him coming to get me out of the stands,” after the Colts beat the Bears in 2007 when Reagor was 8. He was born on New Year’s Day 1999, about four months before his father was drafted in the second round, 58th overall by Denver. “He wants me to go as high as possible,” Reagor said. “All he does is support me. He was a great player in the league and won a Super Bowl. It’s not really a competition.” played ﬁve years for the Bills and nine for the Vikings. “I knew at a young age this is what I wanted to do with my life,” Winﬁeld said, “It’s just surreal feeling to be here right now.” The younger Winﬁeld packs 205 pounds on Detroit one week. I was sitting next to him watching it and he was breaking the ﬁlm down. That was good experience.” In his interviews this week, “every team I went to people either played with him or coached him. They remember my dad,” Winﬁeld said. SATURDAY, MARCH 7, 2020 @ 10:00 A.M.

His father, Jake Reed, was a wide receiver in the NFL for 12 seasons with the Vikings and Saints. His uncle, Dale Carter, played defensive back for a dozen seasons in the NFL with stops in Kansas City, Denver, Minnesota, New Orleans and Baltimore. “From my dad, one of the things I learned at an early age is it’s never too early to start being a pro,” Reed said Friday. “And then from my uncle, it’s just to be mean, nasty, and get after the ball and get after everybody, man.” Having family football ties not only gave Reed a head start as a kid, but it helped prepare him for the combine, where most of the 330 prospects tap their college coaches or former teammates who have gone pro for advice. “It’s deﬁnitely an advantage to have family in the NFL and just to lean on them for their expertise,” Reed said. “My dad has helped me throughout this whole process.” “I think it gives us the upper hand,” said Minnesota defensive back Antoine Winﬁeld Jr., whose father played 14 seasons in the NFL. “If you have family members that have been through it ﬁrst-hand. … they’ll pretty much tell you everything you need to know prior to coming to an event like this.” Actually, they’ve been gleaning valuable tips most of their lives. “At a young age, I was getting taught things that no other kids were thinking about, having an All-Pro dad that played football,” Winﬁeld said. “He’d be out in backyard doing footwork, so I’m out there with him doing footwork at an early age.

The Flyers shot 69% in the ﬁrst half, with most of their points coming off drives to the basket. Toppin had a pair of fast-break dunks — the second one a reverse slam — that brought the crowd of 13,407 to its feet and pushed Dayton’s lead to 56-33 early in the second half, when Dayton went 16 of 21 from the ﬁeld with all ﬁve misses from beyond the arc.
