ALONG THE 9-allia Academy clinches share of first SEOAL title in 21 years BY BRAD SHERMAN BSHERMANOMYOAILYTRIBUNE.COM MARIETIA - The long championship drought is over, but Gallia Academy is not celebrating - not just yei. The Blue Devils ended 21 years of frustration when they clinched at least a share of the Southeastern Ohio Athletic League baseball championship following a 7-2 victory at Marietta on Thursday. Brad Caudill had a big day at the plate, and drove in the ~o-'ahead run in the sixth mning before the Blue Devils tacked on four insurance ·runs in th~ ~eve nth. All the while, pitcher Shaphen Robinson gave a gutsy performance just three days after suffering a shoulder injury: . And . while Gallia Academy's first baseball title since ·l985 is certainly sweet, coach Rich Corvin isn't satisfied with just a tie. "Tiiat's a little monkey off our back," Corvin said. "But we're not done, we're not sat, isfied with that. " . His team can win it outright by beating Warren on the road Monday. · Still a Gallia Academy baseball title, shared or not, is a rarity. It's only the I Oth title in school history. "ft was probably the No. I goal when I took over three years ago," admitted Corvin, who has turned the program around in his three years at the helm. ''Tonight was a very emotional night, the kids were excited and I was speechless - which I'm not too often." Warren (6-2 SEOAL) is the only other team that can still claim a share: In addition to Monday 's showdown, the Warriors also have a make-up game remaining with Marietta llext week. Robinson, who struck out seven and ·walked nine batters, threw a complete game - remarkable considering he was just three days removed from a scary-looking shoulder injury earlier in the week. He had popped ~is shoulqer out of socket agamst Logan, but looked almost back to tOO percent on Thursday. "He didn 't throw very many breaking balls t'or strikes, but it was enough to keep those guys off balance a little bit," Corvin explained. "He had a lot of pop on the fastball and he pretty much overpowered them." Marietta had six hits off Robinson.

That gives teams all the opportunity in the world to overanalyze everyone, even Reggie Bush, Leinart's Trojans teammate, his successor as the Heisman winner and the player almost everyone has conceded Houston ·will take with the top pick. Even that seems a bit up in the air. But just a bit.

Williams' stock has been soaring a.nd Houston owner Bob McNair, who was . at Thursday 's gathering. insisted there is still discussion over the choice. Mc~air said the negotiations are important so the Texans can avoid a holdouf. But he also said the indecision is legitimate - it usually is a ruse - because the front office still hasn't decid. ed which of the two can provide the most help to his team, which finished 2-14 last ~ason. "We are very serious about this, not nervous," McNair said. ~·we will address where we have the greatest needs and where the player can help us the most. It's not often we have the opportunity to select a player of this caliber. You want to make a pick of a player who will be with you and make a contribution for a long period of time." Bush? He seems to understand the process having played, like Leinart, for the most scrutinized team in a major media market without an NFL team. Playing in. Los Angeles for two-time national champion Southern Cal is just abol!l the same as playing 'for, say, the Giants . or Jets or Bears or Patriots. So he doesn' t seem fazed home phone number could not be found. Oester spent his entire 13year career with the Reds, playing from 1978 to 1990. The second haseman helped the Reds sweep the Oakland Athletics in the 1990 World Series : He was the first base coach for manager Tony Perez in 1993 and later served four years as a coach for Ray Knight and then Jack McKeon, who was fired the day after .the 2000 season ended. Oester soured on the Reds after being passed 'over for the manager 's job in 2000 but later returned as the team's minor teague field coordinator. • 0 Page A5 Poul Dorst;photo Workers with Geiger Brothers Mechanical Contractors Inc., of Jackson, work on space that will • John A.

I read an ar<icle the other day in the Sentinel about an organization , although I can't remember what organization, preaching abstinence. While this is fine and dandy, th~ article's next paragraph stated that Metgs County has the htghest teen pregnancy rate of all counties in th,e state. . Evidently the preaching of abstmence ts n?t working! As well as preaching abstinence. we should be teachmg methods of btrth control and the practice of safe sex. Please remember we were all once teenagers ;md sex is going to happen. While I believe that abstain in£ is the best and safest practice, we must protect our children. ;;,.ho are going to have sex no matter what we do. I'd rather have a child who has had sex and lived to tell about it than to preach only the "Just Say No" method and hope for the best when I could then end up with a child with HIV or AIDS. While I would probably get flack from the naive people who may think they can just tell kids not to have sex. and that would be the end if it, the kids must be taught about protecting themselves as children are having sex much earlier than when I was young. And when I was a teen, HIV and AIDS didn't exist, but pregnancy and other venereal dtsease did. So I say to those who think preaching abstinence is enough. it simply is not. ~unbap Sunday,April30,2006 The .Bush.decision &unbap atfmes -&entinel • PageA4 ' ..,.,....... �OHIO PageA6 ..

Then Leinart finaUy went at No. IO. . . That prompted Denver to move up with the first trade of the .round - a swap with St. Louis that enabled them to take the third first-round quarterback, Vanderbilt's Jay Cutler. That didn' t exactly indicate much confidence in Jake Plummer, although Cutler, who like Plummer is mobile, will have plenty of time to learn behind the incumbent. Th<;n the draft proceeded through a group made up primarily of defensive players. One interesting pick was Ohio State" linebacker Bobby Carpenter to Dallas with the 18th choice overall Carpenter was chosen by coach Bill Parcells, who was the Giants' coach in the early 1980s when his fat!ler .Rob was New York's starting running back. Carpenter was one of three defensive . players from Ohio State to be picked in the first 20.

CHARLOTTE, N.C.- To gauge just how far Richard Childress Racing has come in its company-wide bid for improvement, look beyond Kevin Harvick's success and Jeff Burton 's resurgence. The true indicator is Clint Bowyer, who quietly is having a tremendous rookie season and proving that Childress is committed to getting all three of his teams to , the top. Bowyer is coming off his best nun of the year, a fifth. place firiish last weekend in Phoenix. He led 21 laps, his .first time out front in a Nextel Cup race, and spent 269 of the 312 laps in 'the top I 0. Harvick · won the race and Burton finished ninth, making it a solid night for the Childress teams. But Childress wasn't around to see; any of it. The .car pwner was on an African safari. "The boss is over there hunting and fighting ele· phants and tigers and whatever else over there in Africa," Bowyer said. "But he' ll be g~%~:.. happy when he. comes staying out of trouble 'for a clean, safe run, or making a colossal error that could ruin his race. Competing in a deep rookie class that includes two-time Busch Series champion Martin Truex Jr., hotshot Reed Sorenson and Tooy Stewart's two teammates at J~e Gibbs Racing. (J.J. Yeley and Denny Hamlm), no one besides Childress expected much out of Bowyer thi s first year. . "Everybody was looking at these other guys who had won some races, so for .him to be able io be in there and do what he's done, I'm proud of him," Childress said last month. "He'll only ?et better as the year ~oes on.' If that's true, then Bowyer could find . himself in the Chase. He's currently 12th in the standings, 308 points behind le.ader Matt Kenseth - well within the 400-rsint Cl!toff to make the playa s.

The National Museum of Americl!ll History announced tlie artifact-collecting effort. at a February event in New York City attended by such luminaries as Russell Simmons, rapper Ice-T, break dancer Crazy Legs and hip-hop founders Afrika Bambaataa, Kool Here and Grandmaster Flash. Among the lirst donated items were a vintage boombox from Fab 5 Freddy ·(host of the l;>ygone "Yo! MTV Raps"). a turntable from Flash and two graffitied jackets from Bambaataa.

Do you have pond problems this year? It is not too early to attempt to manage pond weeds · and structural problems. Proper identification of aqimtic weeds is your first objective. Where does the weed grow? Emergent plants grow along the edge of the pond like cattails, anuwhead, bulrushes and wiUows. Free floating plants like filamentous algae, planktonic algae, duckweed and ~ater-meal float on the pond's water. · Submerged rooted plants with floating leaves are plants whose root system grows in the bottom orgamc soils at the bottom of the pond with leaves that float on the pond's surface attached to the root system by long stems. Some examples would be waterlilies, American lotus, water-shield, and several forms of pondweed. The final classification of aquatic weeds is submerged p\ants whose root system, leaves and stem are all found below the pond's surface. Examples are blanerwon, chara, coontail, eelgrass, elodea and hydriJla There " are several picture books of pond weeds to help in identification. OSU Natural Resources Specialist William Lynch suggests using Penn State's pond identification Web site www.pested.psu.edu/pond.pdf. as an excellent reference. . The; ~nd objective is to know what are the uses of the water. Wtll animals be drinking it? Do children swim in it? Will it be used in inigating plants? Due to safety issues, many chemical control measures can oot be used. Your farm pond is an eco-system whose health depends upon What its use is, what is draining ~to the ponrl: proper conshllctton and mamtenance of the pand. Soil, leaves and animal waste need to be minimized from entering the pond. Grass waterways pull out soil particles and leaves before they enter the Jlllnd. Animals §hould be fenced out of the pond. Stocking with' fish may help in the conversion of water plants into fish protein which can be caught and removed from the pond eco-system. Some ponds have years of · silt that have changed the pond i{Jto a ·swamp. Renovation of the pond may need to occur. · If using Chemicals, remember to read label instructions on all chemicals ajlplied to ponds. On the label wiU be the proper timing of chemical application.

Why not consider pfanti ng some fruits? And rather than the us ual -- which you can buy in stores any way -- why not consider planting some uncommon fruits? A number of uncommon fruits are adaptable almost everywhere and require almost no care besides offering uncommonly unique and delectable fla vors. Take American persimmon, for example. The translucent, orange skin of these golfball-sized fruit s encloses a soft fle sh that tastes something like a wet. dried apricot drizzled with honey along with a · dash of spice. The key to enjoying . this fruit is planting a named variety, and . one that can ripen within your growing season·. Good choices include Morris' Burton, Early .Golden, and Szukis, the last especially good in northern areas . Just plant, weed and water the first year, then harvest fruits for the next few decades. Pawpaw is another native fruit that ' s · very easy to grow. It's sometimes called ':banana of the north" because its' creamy, white ' f fle sh tastes something like banana -- with some vanilla custard and a bit of mango and avocado mixed Ill . Again , expect be st results from planting grafted trees of named varieties, such as Sunflower, Taylor, and Overlee se. Plant two different varieti es to get the cross- pollination needed to set fr1,1it ; · both trees will bear. Mulberry is a cosmopolitan plant, growing wild over much of the country. The blackberry-like fruit s of most wild mulberrij:s a re ta sty, perhaps too ·sweet, but for topnotch fla vor, plant a named variety such as Illinois Everbearing or Oscar. Blac~ mulberry varieties such as Black Persian or Noir of Spain have even better flavor but can only .grow in regions with very mild winters, such as in California. American persimmon , pawpaw, and mulberry all become medium to large trees, so you 'II need adequate space. Because all three drop their fruits when ripe , don ' t plant any of them near walkways ,or driveways . . These trees need little or no pruning, have few or no pests, and are not finicky about soil as long as it is well-drained . Bloom on all three is late, so spring fro sts rarely nip blo ssoms. For an easy-to:grow small tree, consider medlar, a f.ruit that was popular in Europe in the Middle Ages. The white flowers , resembling those of a wild rose, are followed by golfball -sized fruits that ripen in fall., Th e fruit s are admittedly ugly, but set 'them on a shelf for a couple of weeks and the inside turns so ft with ' a flavor so mething like rich applesa uce with a· hint of wine. Has thi s fruit sala.d whet your appetite? Then plant! • · Middleport • Pomeroy, Ohio 0 ;,o ( ' ]· ]'.; J'S • \ 'ol. .
