Meigs County Schools stand

But Brown quickly drew
interest from other ·teams,
including the Redskins.
Washington' is in need of a
pass-rushing end, having
relied heavily on linebackers
and ·cornerbacks for many of
their sacks last season.
Brown was also a teammate
at Penn State with Redskins
linebacker LaVar Arrington,
the No. 2 overall pick in 2000.
If Washington
acquires
Brown, the team will have the
top three picks from that draft:
Brown, Arrington and tackle
Chris Samuels.
But 'Brown also represents a
gamble because .he hasn't
played a full season since his
rookie year. He has missed 33
games with injuries over the
past four seasons, including
the final 14 games last year
after tearing a ligament in his
foot. .
Brown's other injuries have
included ·a tom knee ligament,
a high ankle sprain, knee cartilage damage and a ruptured
right_biceps tendon. Only as a
rookte dtd he appear m all 16'
games, and he has just .17

PORT ST. LUCIE; Fla.
(AP) - Doug Mientkiewicz
wants to be more than just a
slick fielder this season.
Mientkiewicz had · two
more hits Tuesday to· raise
his spring training average to
.381, helping the New York
Mets to a 7-5 victory over a
Cleveland Indians split
squad.
Best known for · his
defense, which earned him a
Gold Glove at first base with
Minnesota
in
2001.
Mientkiewicz said his focus
this . spring has been on
boosting his performance at
the. plate. He already has
eight hits with more than two
in
weeks
remaining
Grapefruit League action.
"Usually if I get five hits a
spring, I. am doing pretty
good," he said.
.Mientkiewicz hit just .215
with the Red Sox last season,
playing sparingly after a July
31 tradf from Minnesota,
where lie was batting .246.
But he went 4-for-9 in the
JK)Stseason for Boston.
. "I think I have more to
prove here," he said. "My
concentration has been· high·
er than it has been in past
years. In my initial outings, I
want to prove to them that I
can play. Today was a good
gauge for me ."
Carlos Beltran hit his third
homer for the Mets and
added a double. Kaz Matsui
also had two hits and scored
twice.
Ba~kup

Ramon Castro hit a three-run
shot.
Matt Ginter pilched three

Pearl's memories of his
one-game stint as BC' s bird
could become more vivid if
· the Panthers C24 75) can upset
the Crimson Tide (24-7): A:
win by Milw aukee would set
· up a matchup with either second-seeded Boston College
(24-4)
or
13th- seeded
Pennsylvania (20-8), who will
meet in Thursday's second
game.
In ·the evening session at
Cleveland State.'s Wolstein
Center, second-seeded Wake
Forest (26-5) plays 15th-seeded Chattanooga (20-1 0) in the
Albuquerque Regional and
seventh-seeded West Virginia
(21-10) plays lOth-seeded

Creighton (23-1 0).
Apparently, Pearl hasn't
shar.ed hi s my-day-as-t heEagle story from his college
days with many people.
"He did 'J I didn't know
that ," Milwaukee senio r
guard Ed McCants satd .
glancing across the hallway at
his coach. " It fits him, though.
He 's crazy. He's definitely gut
what you would call a passion
for the game."
Pearl 's unbridled zest for
college hoops is what landed
him in the mascot suit in the
tirst place. Describing himself
as a "really good athlete in
high school," Pearl tried out
for Boston College's team as
a walk-on.
Davis didn 't have a spot for
him. but was so impressed
with Pearl's drive that he
invited him to stay with the
program as an administrative
· tan t.
assts
"I became hi s most personal assistant," said Pearl , who
later served on Dav is' staff at
Stanford and Iowa. "I ne ver
worked a day for BC or for
Tom ever thinking I would get
into coaching." ·
Or into the eagle's suit.
At tirst, Pearl thought Davis
wanted him to chart shots or
keep some stats for BC 's
game with Ball State:
" He (Davis) says. ' I need
you to be the Eagle·," Pearl
recalled. "What am I supposed to do? He says. ' run
around the court and ac t like
yourself and you will be
fin e."' ·
Pearl didn't take hi s assignment as BC's· winged masco t
lightly. Like everything else .
Pearl went into it full bore. '
At one point , dressed as the
eagle, he borrowed a small
step ladder and placed it
behind Ball State 's basket.

When the Card inals shot free
throws. Pearl climbed the ladder and !lapped his arms hoping to 'be a di straction.
Oh, he \Vas much more than
that.
.
"They had a meeting after
the ganie and they were going
to throw me oltt," Pearl said.
" I broke like five NCAA
rules."
·
Milwaukee, which hu s won
18 of 19, enters thi s year's
tournament as a No. 12 seed
for the second time in three
years. Two years ago, the
Pan thers nearly knocked· bff
fifth-seeded Notre Dame, losing 70-'69.
The No. 12-No. 5 matchup
produced two first- round
llpsets la st year · when
Manhattan stunned Flondu
and.
Paci fic
upended
Providence . The Panthers
v.oouldn 't mind continuing
that trend.
"You kno w it 's possible ,
you know it 's realistic and it 's
definitely an attainable goal
we· think we can reach."
McCant's said.
Boston College is the most
perplex ing of the eight teams
here. A month ago, the Eagles
were 20-0 and sharing the
spotlight with No. I Illinoi s as ·
the nation 's last remaining
undefeated schools.
But since then , they'v e
gone 4-4. been bounced by
West Virgi nia in the Bi g
East's first round and are now
not su re if reserve guard
Jermainc Watson will play.
Watson. who ave rages 9.8
points per ga me. is h ealing
from minor injuries suffered
while jumping through hi s
second-story apartment window early SUilday morning .
Watson told police he was
esca'ping
from
armed
assailants.

CL-ASSIFIED

Mayo
from Page 81
2 and are headed to this
week's Division lJI state
semifinals at Value City
Arena.
"He's . an outstanding
player," said his coach,
Jamie Mahaffey, a former
star at Miami University in
the 1990s. "He 's an allaround player, a team player. He makes .th ings happen . And he's a real leader
on the floor. He does everything on the court that a
coach doe s on the sidelines ."
Mayo came to North
College Hill after hi s moth- .
er decided he would be better off livin g with hi s
grandfather,
Dwaine
Barnes, in Cincinnati.
All the points and all the
win s have led some to ·say
that it's all too much , too
soon for Mayo. Hi s coac h
di sagrees.
"He doesn' t look at that,"
Mahaffey said of · all the
NBA talk that is already fil tering back to Mayo . " I
think that mi ght be the case
witl;t another similar player,
but O.J . is a mature kid and
can handle the talk and all
the challenge s. He just
w'llnts to get better and bet·
ter. He wants to improve in
every aspect."
Although Mayo is the
focal point, there is enough
talent around him to take a
lot of the. pressure off of
such a young star.
·
"It's fun, " Mayo said.
"It's a different type of
·team. You read in the
papers we ' re a traveling
· AAU team or a cfrcus. It's
just a good time."
Mahaffey said May o
takes an active role on the
team and isn't afraid to
speak up to upperclassmen .
"He lets you know what
the issue or problem is,''
said; Mahaffey, in hi s third
year as North College
Hill 's coach. "He doesn' t
hold back because he doesn' t hold back when he's on
the court."
A lot of people will be
judging Mayo when he
leads the Trojans against
Loud onvi ll e (22-3) in
Friday's opening se mifinal.
And the talk wi ll continue,
that's for certai n.

·w ill iam Burroughs wrote , "Desperation is
the raw material of drastic change. Only
those who can leave behind everything
they have ever believed m can hope to
escape."
That definitely Bpplies to bridge. II is
another way of pointing out that the basic
tenets of the game -· like second ·hand
lo'w ~md third han d h1gh - are not infalli·
ble. The hard part. of course, is spotling
when a deal is an eXception to a "rule:·
In !his deal, it isn't so much a rule that is
w,rong as- a play that would normally be
dangerous is · perte'ctly sa fe. What is it?
South is in four spades, and West leads
the diamond queen.
South must haye Contemplated rebidding
three no-trump, which would have been
automatic if his suit had been a minor. 8ut
assuming East would have led the heart
two, th e defenders would have scooped
up the first fiye tricks: fdur hearts and the
c lu~ ace.
~outh won with dummy's dianiond king,
drew two rounds of trumps, ahd led the
club king . East, knowing that leading
away from a king-jack hol ding around to a
queen is often suicidal , took his club ace
and "returned his partner's lead ,".tabling a
· diamond. Declarer gralefully claimed an
overtrick.
'
East should have realized that it couldn't
cost to shift to low heart. It South had
the heart ace, he would have claimed lhe
res1 ot the tricks. Also , they would have ,
missed a slam (unless West guessed to
lead a heart at trick one). So, the only
chance to defeat four spades was to find
W~st with the heart ace and South wi.th

game against Cincinnati will
be his first at the Dome as the
Iowa coach.
"Those thoug,hts and memories came back, of playing
Fairfield and playing Auburn
in front of great crowdsllere,"

he said after the Hawkeyes'
practice.
"Playing two games in our
home (slate) ... I thought real ly kind of got us going

"So you just start thinking
about all the little . different
things. Obviously, very spe· ciaf memories then, and those

POMEROY - Most college students
spend their spring break at the beach or
catching up on sleep and laundry. Students
from Iowa State University's Lutheran
Campus Ministry spent their spring break ·
donating their time to Meigs County.
The students washed fences at Forest Run
Church in Racine and at Dave Diles Park in
Middleport to prepare them for pail!ting.
They also lent a helping hand at the Mulberry ·
Community Center, performing a variety of
chores like digging ditches for drainage and
cleaning out the gymnasium, which included
vacu11ming dust from the ceiling.
"We just did this so we cou ld play basketball," Iowa State student Ben Johansen, 22,
joked about emptying the 'gymnasium tloor.
Johansen was joined by fellow student
Nicki Pawlak, 23. in sweeping out the dust
from the gymnasium.
.
"We know we l'lelp people," Pawlak said
about why her friends chose to spend spring
break in Meigs Comity.
"It's not about the work but the people we
meet," Johansen agreed,
Pawlak said Meigs County was ·chosen
