Raising the flag for organ donation
By Sarah Hawley
shawley@aimmediamidwest.com

POMEROY — A new ﬂag
is on display outside the
Meigs County Courthouse
reminding residents of the
importance of organ donation.
A ceremony was held
on Thursday with organ
transplant recipient Steve
VanMeter telling his story,
along with George Korn and
Judge Carson Crow — both
of whom have had family
members receive transplants.
Jessica Petersen of Lifeline
of Ohio also took part in the
ceremony.

VanMeter told of undergoing a double lung transplant
two years ago.
“Two years ago I woke up
with two brand new lungs,”
said VanMeter. He explained
that the next day he was sitting up in the chair, then taking a walk the following day.
By the third day he was off of
oxygen and has not been back
on it since.
VanMeter expressed his
thanks for the donor and her
family, his uncle and aunt
Howard and Ruthie Parker,
the American Legion and all
of those who prayed.
In the two years since the
transplant, VanMeter has had

the opportunity to meet the
family of his 38-year-old old
organ donor with the help of
Lifeline Ohio.
Petersen said that the family of the donor was the happiest they had been since her
passing when they were able
to meet VanMeter.
“Please consider being
an organ donor,” said VanMeter. He explained he had
ﬁve friends sign up as organ
donors after his experience.
Crow told of Morgan, his
wife’s daughter, who received
a liver transplant 16 years
ago. Crow credited the power
of prayer in helping to make

instance. That’s why
Meigs County resident
Elizabeth “Liz” Shaw
has devoted countless
hours addressing the
lack of digital connectivity in the Appalachian
Ohio region, which
thwarts development
and opportunity. For this
commitment to improving the regional quality
of life, the Jenco Foundation Fund at the Foun-

dation for Appalachian
Ohio (FAO) recognized
Shaw and ﬁve others
with the 2018 Jenco
Awards, conferred Sept.
27 at the historic Stuart’s
Opera House.
“I ﬁrst understood
the issue of connectivity
as one of convenience,
but the more I began to
explore the issue and
talk with others, the
more I realized that this

issue is absolutely crucial to the well-being of
our area — and the more
important it became to
me to do what I could to
address the problem,”
Shaw said.
Shaw has done a
great deal toward that
end; her commitment
to addressing the
region’s lack of digital
connectivity has made
her a regional leader.

She founded the Citizens
Connectivity Committee
in order to tackle the
lack of connectivity,
which she says
contributes to hampered
economic development,
educational
opportunities, and public
health and safety in
the Appalachian Ohio
region. As part of this

addressing the issues of
addiction in our county.
;l[ho�=Wbb_W�9ekdjo�h[iident, as a “concerned
citizen”, has a standing
invitation to attend
these meetings and help
make a difference.
For everyone who has
wondered how to make
a difference, it may seem
that the problems of our
community related to
drug and alcohol addiction are bigger than can
be handled, and quite
honestly, a little frightening. Someone may
observe a person in a
restaurant who is obviously impaired; or one
may feel it to be unsafe
to stop at a gas station
late at night for fear
of who may be lurking
about; or an impaired
driver may be witnessed
weaving left and right by

another driver. Anyone
b_l_d]�_d�=Wbb_W�9ekdjo�
who has ever had concern for him or herself,
family or community, is
a “concerned citizen.”
=Wbb_W�9FH�9eWb_j_ed�
is actively working to
help make the community a safer place
by uniting concerned
citizens to be one voice
that tells the truth…
that someone caught
up in drug addiction is
worthy of getting help;
that treatment is available; and that there
is hope for achieving
a better life. At these
meetings, information
is available to help
community members
communicate this message to those they know
or see in addiction.
Members learn what
resources are available
in the community and
how to refer to these
resources. There is also
a calendar of events
that announces opportunities in the community
for members to share
hope, encouragement,
resources, and even stories of those in addiction who have found
freedom. Members
share that it feels good
to be a part of a group
of people who are working to share a positive
message to help bring
about a change.
One emphasis that
9FH�_i�Ykhh[djbo�i^Whing is that October
is Medication Abuse
Awareness Month. This
emphasis draws attention to the resources
available to help our

community increase
awareness of the potential dangers of medication abuse, and to share
how citizens can help
prevent medication
abuse. Steps to help discourage abuse include
1) Locking up prescription medications when
there are young people
living in the home, 2)
Never sharing prescription medications with
someone for whom they
are not prescribed, and
3) Properly disposing of
medications that are left
over or expired. Medication Abuse Awareness

Brian’s vision for the Fall Harvest Gospel Sing was
to reach his community with the Good News he
found during his life. For 12 years he invited people
&amp; advertised the sing so people would come and
hear. This is the 3rd year that the sing is being held
in his memory and there are still many people in the
community that have not attended the sing, so on
this - the 15th Annual event, Angela wants to share
the Good News Brian wanted to share with you:
1. God loves you and has a plan for you!
The Bible says, “God so loved the world that He gave
His one and only Son, [Jesus Christ], that whoever
believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life”
(John 3:16).
2. Man is sinful and separated from God.
We have all done, thought or said bad things, which
the Bible calls “sin.” The Bible says, “All have sinned
and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23).
The result of sin is death, spiritual separation from
God (Romans 6:23).
The good news?
3. God sent His Son to die for your sins!
Jesus died in our place so we could live with Him for
eternity in Heaven.
“God demonstrates His own love toward us, in
that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us”
(Romans 5:8).

For additional information:
Text 513-508-7766
or Email giraffeangela@hotmail.com
But it didn’t end with His death on the cross.
“Christ died for our sins. … He was buried. …
He was raised on the third day, according to the
Scriptures.” (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).
Jesus said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life;
no one comes to the Father, but through Me”
(John 14:6).
4. Would you like to receive God’s forgiveness?
We can’t earn salvation; we are saved by God’s grace
when we have faith in His Son, Jesus Christ. All you
have to do is believe you are a sinner; that Christ
died for your sins, and ask His forgiveness. Then turn
from your sins—that’s called repentance. No one can
change themselves, God changes us. Jesus Christ
knows you and loves you. Years ago Brian prayed a
prayer like this and you can do the same. This is the
Good News he wanted to share with you at the Fall
Harvest Gospel Sing
“Dear Lord Jesus,
I know I am a sinner, and I ask for your
forgiveness. I believe that you died for my sins on
the cross and rose from the dead. Please save
me and be my Lord and Savior. Guide my life and
help me to do your will.
In your name, amen.”

THEIR VIEW

Time to
stand up for
a free press
Enough already.
The last couple of years have been an unending
barrage against the freedom of the press and the
practitioners of this noble trade.
From being called “liars,” “fake,” and “sick”
by irate politicians to enduring capricious and
punitive tariffs that are an existential threat to
newspapers, the landscape for journalists today
may be as inhospitable as it has ever been in the
242-year history of this great union of ours.
All this while the public at large seems unable
to break free of the social media echo chamber.
We retreat there to endlessly bicker
with those who don’t agree, or to
bolster the conﬁdence of our own
positions by seeking solace from
those who do.
We’ve devolved into a nation of
people who simply don’t want to
hear it.
And that’s incredibly dangerous.
Layne
The bipartisan testimony of 20
Bruce
Contributing members of congress last month
before the International Trade Comcolumnist
mission in opposition to tariffs on
Canadian imported newsprint is
a good indicator a lot of talk about journalists
being “enemies of the people” is utter hogwash.
These men and women know the importance
of community newspapers and their imperiled
status in modern culture where too many marketers prefer digital analytics and too many readers
prefer daily afﬁrmation.
They know the men and women who work at
the local paper are most deﬁnitely not the enemy
— nor the problem.
But in a society where talk of the wicked media
is hurled relentlessly on Twitter or cable “news”
channels, all of us who take part in the honorable, Constitutionally protected trade of reporting news and ferreting truth get amalgamated
into a cynical act of political theater that’s threatening to the very fabric of democracy.
And that’s what this is really about.
We’re arguing over political philosophies and
cultural divides — not about whether news is
biased. I bet you a week’s pay and a dozen donuts
the people who use the argument that news is
“fake” don’t any more believe that than they
think the Space Force is coming soon to a quadrant near us.
But the damage is being done. We as a nation
are beginning to give a collective shoulder shrug
the fundamental freedoms in the Bill of Rights.
And we’ve got to snap out of it.
We’ve got to accept that not all news is happy
or afﬁrming. We’re not always going to get what
we want. I vaguely remember being taught that
as a preschooler.
Aaron Blake, a correspondent for The Washington Post, asked in a recent column if the
media should go to war with the President.
“Trump seems to want a war with his ‘enemy,’”
Blake wrote. “But should the media oblige him?
And if it doesn’t, isn’t it unilaterally disarming?”
No, we should not go to war with the President. But it’s long past time to end the navel
gazing and stand up for what we do. It’s our job
to provide the best obtainable version of the
truth and to champion the freedoms of the First
Amendment.
To that end, The Boston Globe is encouraging
newspapers across the country to editorialize on
the importance of journalism in democracy —
and to the communities we all serve — in their
editions on or around Aug. 16.
“This dirty war on the free press must end,”
Globe editors wrote in their call to action.
Thomas Jefferson — who had a notably tempestuous relationship with the press — was a
president who still often rose to defend it.
He once wrote while serving in Paris as Minister to France:
“The people are the only censors of their governors: and even their errors will tend to keep
these to the true principles of their institution…
“Were it left to me to decide whether we
should have a government without newspapers
or newspapers without a government, I should
not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I
should mean that every man should receive those
papers and be capable of reading them.”
If we’re unwilling to accept news that upsets
us, or if we’re indifferent to differing views simply because we don’t want to deal with them,
we’re essentially giving up on the notion we can
ever truly be “one Nation under God, indivisible,
with liberty and justice for all.”
I know it’s ironic, but I don’t believe we’ve
given up because I don’t want to believe it.

Association. His email address is lbruce@mspress.org. Follow the

and Newspaper Association Managers.

THEIR VIEW

A perspective on Issue 1
Proponents of Issue
1 believe that Ohio can
solve substance addiction
by essentially decriminalizing the possession
of any drug of abuse of
less than 20 grams by
reducing possession to
a misdemeanor and by
limiting jail sentences for
probation violations. But
the truth is that a drug
offender’s involvement
in the criminal justice
system—with freedom
on the line—can present
a meaningful opportunity for recovery through
Ohio’s drug treatment
courts.
Anyone who has
watched, in anguish, as
a loved one battles substance addiction knows—
recovery will not occur
until there is a rock bottom. Sadly, addicts will
have to crash their life
on the rocks of substance
abuse often enough,
long enough, and hard
enough, before recovery
is possible. Addicts have
to become sick and tired
of being so sick and tired
before they realize that
they are powerless over
their addiction and the
only way to achieve the
life they were born to live
is to seek treatment. But
until rock bottom occurs,
substance addiction is a
long, downward, cyclical
spiral.
Different life events
trigger rock bottom. For
some, it happens when
they lose a job or two, or
when they see themselves
in the friend who just
overdosed and died, or
when their family and
friends participate in an
intervention and they are
forced to choose between
substance abuse or treatment to save their family.
Often, however, rock
bottom for addicts happens when they are

Any successful drug
court graduate will tell
you that without the
impending threat of the
loss of freedom and liberty they never would
have chosen and stayed
the course of recovery.
Now is the time—with
research evidence in
hand that Ohio’s drug
treatment courts are
cost effectively reducing
recidivism—to grow drug
treatment courts, experiment with the development of more joint-jurisdiction drug treatment
courts, and integrate
additional life-skill facets
into our existing drug
treatment courts to
strengthen and increase
successful outcomes.
Substance addiction
recovery occurs one day
at a time, growing drug
treatment courts occurs
one judge at a time, and
eradicating substance
addiction occurs one
recovering addict at a
time. Ohio’s continued
success in reducing substance addiction should
be founded on what we
know is working – the
implementation of more
drug treatment courts
and the development of
life-skill programs into
our drug courts to bring
holistic treatment to the
addict. But in order to do
that, the drug treatment
court model requires a
“stick.” We cannot make
somebody want treatment, but the possibility
of prison can provide
personal motivation for
change, and spark an
appreciable desire to live
a substance-free life. If
we remove the consequences of failure—as
Issue 1 will—we limit
each addict’s chance for
success.

Meeting to be held on health care in county
POMEROY — Meigs County
Health Department is working on its
State-mandated national accreditation
via the Public Health Accreditation.
Domain 7 deals with access to care
and requires the health department
to work with the health care system
to (1) understand the availability of
health care services to the population,
(2) identify populations who experience barriers to health care services,
and (3) identify gaps in access to
health care and barriers to the receipt
of care. The health department is
requesting community assistance and
participation in a meeting on Oct. 18
from 10 a.m.-noon in the 3rd Floor
conference room of the Meigs County

Talking Breast Cancer Awareness Month
By LeeAnn Johnson
Special to Times-Sentinel

From page 1A

developers Dave Hubba,
local builder, Jason
Asbury, civil engineer,
and Jim Westover, representative of Jellystone
Park/vice president of
product development and
sales, were open for questions.
John Gerlach, county
administrator for Mason
County, explained he
has been on the phone
with two different bond
companies, four different
conversations, trying to
ﬁgure out how the county
commission can make
the bond issue work to
provide a sewer for this
project.
He stated, “One of the
things the PSC requires is
they require the ability for
the customer they serve
to pay back the debt. The
customers that are to be
served are the customers
they’re going to locate
outside the campground…
The county commission
cannot promote the building of a sewer with public
funds on private land. We
would have to work out
some kind of an agreement with you to either
lease property or have
property somewhere, we
gotta guarantee to the
PSC that all the customers up through 35 and
not just at your development have the capability
to hook on to that sewer
package plan, should the
development continue
to grow. We’ve talked
about the package plan,
you can add to it, add to
it, add to it. So, in terms
of the bond attorney’s
opinion…the information
that we need to receive
the sewer application has
to come you. We have to
have commitments on
the customers that are
committed to coming
there. I’m talking about
documentation for an
application. We also have
to have documentation

the transplant possible,
as there were two people
at the same local church
praying for two people
which allowed for the
connection to be made.
For Korn, his wife
received a heart transplant 24 years ago, and
under went a valve
replacement a year ago.
He explained that the
transplant has allowed
her to experience many
things she would otherwise not have been able
to. She is also one of the
ﬁrst heart transplant
recipients to live long
enough to undergo a
valve replacement, said
Korn.
All of the speakers
encouraged the public to
register as organ donors

funds for this project just
the same.
“This isn’t a matter of
can we afford to do this,
this is a matter of how
can we afford not to do
this,” commented one
resident.
A few other concerns
of the residents was the
project being moved to
Putnam County if the
public sewer system issue
is not resolved at a quick
enough pace and if a selfcontained sewer system
could be an option.
Thornton explained
as long as some sort of
progression is shown
towards working out a
plan for a public sewer
system on the land, then
they will continue the
project in Mason County.
As for the self-contained
sewer system, Thornton
explained the only way
for this project to be cost
effective is if the county
provides the sewer system. Westover added
many of the Jellystone
Park Camp and Resorts
have public sewer systems.
Also, concerns of a
tax increase were brieﬂy
discussed. Thorton said,
“Let’s not speculate on
that because that’s something the politicians locally and statewide would
have to answer for you,
but the county has a lot
of resources available to
them…we’re bringing in
serious tourism dollars.”
Hubba suggested there
be a meeting between all
of the project’s developers
and the Mason County
Commission within 30
days to ﬁgure out the
public sewer system issue
and move forward with
the project.
“The goal is that we
all get to the ﬁnish line
at the same time,” said
Hubba.
Thornton added they
need to break ground in
spring, so a commitment
needs to be made soon.

and to discuss their wishes with family members.
The American Legion,
of which VanMeter is a
member, took part in the
ceremony and ﬂag raising.
The ﬂag is now displayed on the ﬂag pole
with the Ohio ﬂag, visible to remind of the
importance of organ
donation. The ﬂag is
part of the Flags Across
America campaign.
According to Lifeline
of Ohio, with nearly
115,000 individuals on
the national waiting list
for a life-saving organ
transplant, the need for
more registered organ,
eye and tissue donors
in the U.S. is critical.
To raise public awareness about this drastic
medical need, Donate
Life Ohio is endeavoring
to raise a Donate Life
ﬂag in each of Ohio’s
88 counties in 2018. By

inviting local government
ofﬁces, schools, hospitals, BMV’s, businesses
and organizations to get
involved with these local
ﬂag-raisings, Donate Life
Ohio hopes to encourage
the public to stop, pause
and consider the difference they can make as a
registered organ, eye and
tissue donor.
About Lifeline of
Ohio: An independent,
non-proﬁt organization,
Lifeline of Ohio promotes
and coordinates the donation of human organs and
tissue for transplantation.
Lifeline of Ohio serves
78 hospitals in 37 counties in Ohio and two in
West Virginia and is designated as an organ procurement organization
through the Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid
Services.

You probably don’t
need a reminder that
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month;
after all, pink ribbons are
as common as pumpkin
spice lattes this month.
But, it never hurts to
refresh your understanding of the disease.
Breast cancer is the
most commonly diagnosed cancer in women
in the U.S. (aside from
skin cancer). Nationwide, an estimated
266,120 women (and
2,550 men) are expected
to be diagnosed with
invasive breast cancer in
2018, and nearly 41,000
women and 500 men will
die of the disease. Here
in Ohio, an estimated
10,610 women will be
diagnosed, of which
1,700 will die. The positive news is that death
rates are declining due
to improvements in early
detection and treatment.
If you’re a woman in
your 20s or 30s, talk to
your health care professional about Clinical
Breast Exams (CBEs);
if you have a family history of cancer, be sure to

discuss other screening
options. Screening saves
lives by ﬁnding breast
cancer earlier, when
treatment may be more
successful. Beginning
at age 40, the Prevent
Cancer Foundation®
encourages women to
get a CBE and a mammogram annually. Your
health care professional
may recommend that
you begin screening
earlier, get screened
more frequently or get
magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) with
your mammogram if you
have a family history of
the disease.
Although more expensive and not always
covered by insurance,
3D mammograms have
been found to be slightly
better at detecting cancer and may reduce false
positives. Talk to your
health care professional
to see if your screening facility offers this
technology and if this
method is recommended
for you.
Pay attention to your
body. Talk with a health
care professional if you
experience a lump, hard
knot or thickening in
the breast; a lump under

your arm; a change in
the size or shape of a
breast; nipple pain, tenderness or discharge,
including bleeding;
itchiness, scales, soreness or rash on a nipple;
an inward or inverted
nipple; a change in
skin color and texture
(dimpling, puckering or
redness); or a breast that
feels warm or swollen.
You can take steps
to reduce your risk of
breast cancer. If you
drink alcohol, limit it to
no more than one drink
a day if you’re a woman
or two drinks a day if
you’re a man, exercise at
least 30 minutes at least
ﬁve days a week, maintain a healthy weight
and don’t smoke. Breastfeeding may also reduce
a woman’s risk of breast
cancer. Take action now
and make these healthy
lifestyle choices to stop
cancer before it starts.

plan and future ability of
the whole development
to pay back the sewer
loan. The county commission itself is restricted by
statute to borrow money
beyond our ﬁscal year
at a time. So that money
would either have to
come through the county
building commission…
or it would have to come
through the PSD.”
Thornton explained to
Gerlach if a solution is
not ﬁgured out, he and
his fellow developers cannot start building.
Gerlach along with
Commissioners Sam Nibert and Tracy Doolittle
explained the Mason
County Commission is
in support of this project
and are doing all they can
to assist with its progression.
Doolittle commented
they just need the proper
documents from the
developers, so they can
get their side of the work
complete. Nibert suggested they all need to come
back together in order to
discuss what needs to be
done to put in the sewer
system as a development
cannot happen without a
sewer system.
Many Mason County
residents as well as city
and state ofﬁcials shared
their positive thoughts on
the project and how they
want to see this come full
circle and they are willing
to help in anyway they
can.
Delegate Jim Butler
suggested residents call
the governor, Jim Justice,
and reach out to him on
seeing project progression. Jared Billings,
Mason County School
Board president, suggested residents visit the capitol and make their voices
be heard about wanting
to see this project progress. One resident shared

was built, the project cost
$8 million dollars and
the residents raised the
money and she feels the

gathering ‘connectivity
horror stories’ from
Appalachian Ohioans,
including students, ﬁrst
responders, the elderly,
township trustees, and
more.
The Citizens Connectivity Committee, with
Shaw at its helm, worked
to organize the Appalachian Ohio-West Virginia
Connectivity Summit and
Town Hall, which drew
hundreds of citizens,
several state legislators,
and representatives from
the ofﬁces of Ohio and
West Virginia ofﬁcials
including Ohio Governor
Kasich, Senator Sherrod Brown, Senator Rob
Portman, Congressman
Bill Johnson, Senator
Shelly Moore Capito,
Senator Joe Manchin,
and Congressman David
McKinley. The event also
drew a representative
from the Appalachian
Regional Commission,
and even prompted FCC
Commissioner Clyburn
to testify before a House
subcommittee on the
issues facing our region.
Shaw is not simply
a broadband advocate,
however. Appalachian
culture and history are
also important to her,
and she promotes traditional Appalachian music
through her work as a
professional folk musician and teacher. She currently operates a private
music studio, where she
teaches 35 students traditional Appalachian music
on ﬁddle, banjo, guitar,
dulcimer, and piano. Her
business endeavors are

WATERFORD, Ohio — Not enough wind in
their sails.
Braden Bellville and Peyten Stephens each
rushed for a pair of ﬁrst half touchdowns, and
the Tornadoes mustered only 141 yards of total
offense on Friday night as host Waterford rolled to
a 42-7 victory in a Week 8 Tri-Valley Conference
Hocking Division football contest in Washington
County.
The visiting Tornadoes (6-2, 4-2 TVC Hocking)
never led as the Wildcats (6-2, 5-1) built a 20-point
lead in the second quarter and ultimately never
looked back.
The Purple and Gold struggled offensively as the
guests mustered only 94 rushing yards on 31 carries to go along with 47 passing yards, which collectively ended up being almost half of what WHS
produced on the ground alone.
In all, the Green and White ﬁnished the night
plus-1 in turnover differential and had four different players score rushing touchdowns en route to
a 249-yard rushing performance that also produced
313 yards of total offense.
Stephens gave the hosts a permanent lead on a
1-yard run early in the ﬁrst canto, then Bellville
added a 2-yard run that was followed by a successful two-point conversion that gave Waterford a
14-0 advantage after 12 minutes of play.
Bellville added another TD run — this time
from ﬁve yards out — to give the Wildcats a quick
20-0 lead early in the second canto.
The Tornadoes ﬁnally got in the scoring column
midway in the second frame as Gage Shuler hauled
in a 1-yard pass from Logan Drummer, cutting the
deﬁcit down to 20-7. The guests were ultimately
never closer the rest of the way.
Stephens added a 2-yard run just before halftime,
allowing the hosts to secure a comfortable 28-7
cushion at the break.

Blue Devils surge past Redmen, 43-20
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com

GALLIPOLIS, Ohio —
On the 70th anniversary
of calling Memorial Field
home, the Blue Devils put
themselves in a position
to make even more football history.
Gallia Academy led
wire-to-wire and forced
three second half turnovers — which led to 14
pivotal points — while
setting up a date for the
program’s ﬁrst-ever Ohio
Valley Conference title
after posting a 43-20 victory over visiting Rock
Hill in a Week 8 contest
Friday night in the Old
French City.
The host Blue Devils
(7-1, 5-0 OVC) found
themselves in a dog ﬁght
for two quarters, as the
Redmen (2-6, 1-4) forced
the only ﬁrst half turnover and churned out
179 rushing yards while
hanging around in a 14-13
contest.
The Blue and White,
however, limited RHHS
to just 99 yards of offense
after the break, plus
pitched a third quarter
shut out that resulted in a
30-13 advantage headed
into the ﬁnale.
The Red and White
closed the gap down to
30-20 nine seconds into
the fourth, but the hosts
responded with 13 unanswered points to wrap
up their ﬁfth consecutive
victory — and a date with
Ironton next Friday for
the outright lead in the
OVC standings.
Both teams had three

possessions apiece in the
ﬁrst half, and the Redmen
held a 179-148 advantage
in total yards … as well as
being plus-1 in turnover
differential. Still, the Blue
Devils were able to take a
slim one-point edge into
the intermission.
And, according to
second-year GAHS coach
Alex Penrod, it was at
halftime that both his
staff and his troops found
some common ground.
“Through 10 weeks of
a season, you are going
to battle some ups and
downs and face some
adversity along the way,”
Penrod said. “There’s
been a lot of things going
on this week with not

having school, but we
came down those steps
ready to play. I also think
that Rock Hill showed
up ready to display their
power football team and
tried to slow things down
on us, which doesn’t normally happen.
“Tonight is a testament
to our coaching staff
because we made great
halftime adjustments on
both sides of the ball and
we challenged these kids
to play with a Blue Devil
attitude — and we were a
different team after halftime.”
Gallia Academy opened
the second half with an
onside kick that was
successfully recovered

by Daneuvyn Woodson,
giving the hosts possession at their own 48. And
although the Blue Devils
ultimately punted the ball
away for the only time on
the night, it did help set
the tone for what ensued.
On Rock Hill’s second
offensive play, Ryan
Donovsky forced a fumble
that he also recovered at
the RHHS 37. Four plays
later, James Armstrong
hauled in a 22-yard pass
from Justin McClelland
that gave GAHS a 22-13
advantage with 8:20 left
in the third period.
The Redmen were
forced to punt on their
ensuing drive, and the
Blue Devils answered
with a 5-play, 63-yard
drive that ended with an
8-yard run by Lane Pullins. McClelland converted
the 2-point conversion
run with 4:21 showing

drive that ended with a

Devils
From page 1B

The hosts covered the
distance in ﬁve plays as
Armstrong jetted around
the outside from 15 yards
out, giving the Blue and
White a 43-20 advantage
with 6:26 remaining.
Overall, the Blue Devils
ﬁnished the night plus-2
in turnover differential
and outgained the guests
by a sizable 412-278
margin in total yards of
offense. After the break,
Gallia Academy’s offensive advantage was a
staggering 264-99 in total
yards.
Penrod noted that
his defense deﬁnitely
answered the bell after
halftime, and the offense
was the primary benefactor of the extra work.
“We played with a
sense of urgency on the
defensive side because
we knew that they were
struggling with what we
were doing offensively,”
Penrod said. “We started
ﬂying around a little
harder and a little faster
there in the second half,
and we were able to make
some big plays because of

that effort.”
Campbell gave the
hosts a permanent lead
following a 2-yard run at
the 8:48 mark of the ﬁrst
period, then added a successful two-point catch
on a McClelland pass in
building an 8-0 edge.
The Redmen answered
with a 14-play, 79-yard
drive that ended with
a 10-yard scamper by
Friend on fourth down,
allowing the guests to
close to within 8-7 with a
minute left in the ﬁrst.
Campbell added the
second of three TD runs
seven seconds into the
second quarter following an 11-yard scamper,
allowing the hosts to
secure a 14-7 advantage.
The Redmen countered
with 14-play, 65-yard
drive that ended with
a 22-yard run by Zak
Adkins at the 4:36 mark.
The extra-point kick was
blocked, allowing GAHS
to maintain a 14-13 lead.
The Blue Devils followed with an 8-play
drive that ended up getting down to the Rock
Hill 14, but Jake Bevins
recovered a fumble that
allowed the guests to
take over on downs with
2:16 remaining. RHHS

ultimately ran out of time
and entered the break
down by a single point.
Gallia Academy
claimed a 26-18 advantage in ﬁrst downs and
rushed for 278 yards on
54 carries. The hosts
were also ﬂagged eight
times for 40 yards.
McClelland led the
ground attack with 81
yards on 13 carries and
also went 13-of-19 passing for 180 yards and a
score. Campbell added
46 rushing yards on eight
attempts, while Pullins
churned out 39 yards on
nine totes.
Cory Call led the
GAHS wideouts with
four catches for 51 yards,
while Armstrong added
46 yards on four grabs.
Donovsky, Waller and
Woodson each recovered
a fumble, while Coen
Duncan recorded the
team’s lone sack.
The Redmen had two
of the three punts in the
game, did not have single
yard in the passing attack
and was also penalized
ﬁve times for 45 yards.
Logan Hankins led the
guests with 81 rushing
yards on 14 carries, while
Adkins also had 81 yards
on 18 attempts. Friend

ﬁnished the game 0-for-1
passing.
Ironton — which
defeated Coal Grove by a
21-12 margin on Friday
night — also improved to
5-0 in OVC play. The Blue
Devils have lost their last
four contests at Tanks
Memorial Stadium, with
the last victory coming by
a 14-7 margin in 2006.
Gallia Academy also
has a chance to secure
at least a share of the
program’s ﬁrst league
championship since winning the Southeastern
Ohio Athletic League title
outright during the 2012
campaign.
“Next week is going to
be fun. It’s two of those
traditional powerhouses
in southeastern Ohio that
haven’t been themselves
of late, but both programs
are under new leadership
and are having pretty
solid years,” Penrod said.
“There’s a new attitude
in both sets of kids and
they are both playing for
something meaningful, so
it should be fun down at
the Tank on Friday.”
Kickoff is scheduled for

Marauders fall to Point Pleasant, 55-13
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com

ROCKSPRINGS, Ohio
— Back and even better.
After back-to-back bye
weeks, the Point Pleasant
football team returned
to the gridiron with a
season-high 603 yards
of total offense, leading
the Big Blacks to a 55-13
victory over the Marauders in a non-conference
game on Friday in Meigs
County.
Meigs (2-6) — which
was held under 300 yards
of total offense for just
the second time this season — picked up a pair of
ﬁrst downs on the game’s
opening drive, but had a
touchdown called back
because of a penalty, and
then fumbled the ball
away on the PPHS 20.
Nate Barth recovered
the loose ball for Point
Pleasant (6-0), but the
Marauder defense came
up with a takeaway of
its own on the ensuing
PPHS drive, with Ty
Bartrum intercepting a
pass and returning it 43
yards for the game’s ﬁrst
touchdown. Levi Rafferty
kicked in the extra point,
giving MHS a 7-0 lead
with 6:59 to go in the ﬁrst
quarter.
The Big Blacks
answered quickly, covering 65 yards in 1:30, with
Cason Payne tossing a
27-yard touchdown to
Brady Adkins, and Oliver
Skeie making his ﬁrst of
ﬁve successful point-after
kicks, tying the game at
seven.
The PPHS defense
came up with a three-andout on the next drive,
and visiting offense took
over with just 38 yards to
paydirt. With 2:10 left in
the ﬁrst, Payne delivered
the go-ahead score for
the Big Blacks, rushing
into the end zone from 14
yards out.
Early in the second
period, Point Pleasant’s
defense forced another
punt and its offense made
it into the red zone,
but was backed up to
the 22 after a penalty.
The Marauder defense
stopped the Big Blacks
on fourth down, but MHS
was forced to punt the

ball back after picking up
a pair ﬁrst downs.
Payne found paydirt
again with just 55 seconds left in the half, this
time rushing in from
three yards out to give
the guests a 20-7 lead.
Meigs made it deep
into PPHS territory, but
failed to convert a fourth
down on the ﬁnal play of
the half, and went into
the break down 13.
Point Pleasant’s lead
grew to 19 just 1:24 into
the second half, as Nick
Parsons capped of a
56-yard drive with a oneyard run.
The Marauders
returned the ensuing
kickoff to the PPHS 25,
and hosts trimmed their
deﬁcit back to 13 points
with 9:48 left in the third,
as Coulter Cleland found
Cole Adams for a 29-yard
touchdown pass.
Point Pleasant only
needed 1:24 to get those
six points back, however,
as Adkins completed
a 58-yard drive with a
three-yard touchdown
run. This time, Payne
found Josh Wamsley for
the two-point conversion,
making the margin 34-13
with 7:24 left in the third.
The Marauders suffered
their second lost fumble
of the game on their next
drive, and Josh Wamsley
recovered the ball for
Point Pleasant at the
MHS 41.
Adkins earned his second rushing touchdown
of the period from two
yards out with 5:09 left
in the period, making
Point Pleasant’s lead
41-13. After an MHS
punt, Adkins was in the
end zone again, this time
catching a 49-yard pass
from Payne with 14 seconds left in the third.
The Marauder offense
made it into PPHS territory on the next drive,
but the Big Blacks came
up with a fourth down
stop to restore possession. The ﬁnal touchdown
of Point Pleasant’s 55-13
victory came with 3:16 to
go, when Christian Holland scored on a ﬁve-yard
run.
Following the win,
Point Pleasant head
coach David Darst gave

credit to the Marauders
for forcing the Big Blacks
into some difﬁcult situations early on, and he was
happy with how his team
rebounded in the second
half.
“We were making some
mistakes early in the
game,” Darst said. “Can
you attribute it to being
off three weeks? Also, it
could be the fact that the
Meigs team is not a bad
team. They do a lot of
good things, and they did
a couple things to us in
our passing game that we
weren’t ready for. They
ended up ﬂushing Cason
out to get an interception.
“You go back in his
career and I think that
makes just his third
interception ever, and
the kids kind of got down
on that. On the sideline
they weren’t pumped up,
and it took us a while to
get our momentum back.
You look at what the
defense actually ended up
doing, they only gave up
six points tonight. Our
offense ﬁnally started
doing what they do, and
they do it well. I was very
proud of the effort in the
second half.”
Along with a 608-to263 advantage in total
offense, Point Pleasant
chalked up a 367-to-19
edge on the ground.
The Big Blacks earned a
24-to-9 advantage in ﬁrst
downs, and won the turnover battle by a 2-1 tally.
Meigs was penalized
eight times for 64 yards,
while PPHS was sent
back four times for 35.
Marauders head coach
Mike Bartrum held himself responsible following
the setback, and he noted
that his team can still ﬁnish the season on a high
note.
“It’s tough, gotta do
better, I put it back on
myself,” Bartrum said.
“We just have to move on,
see if we can salvage the
season and get a couple
wins. Senior night is next
week, what better way
to go out than with wins
for those seniors the next
couple weeks. Take care
of Wellston, hopefully
get lucky there, and then
maybe get lucky against
Alexander, and move on.”

Payne — who was
intercepted for the ﬁrst
time since last season
when these teams met —
carried the ball 14 times
for 151 yards and two
touchdowns, while completing 12-of-18 passes
for 207 yards and a pair
of touchdowns.
Adkins carried the ball
20 times for 158 yards
and two touchdowns,
while catching ﬁve
passes for 144 yards and
two more scores. Zane
Wamsley had 51 total
yards on one carry and
two catches, while Josh
Wamsley combined three
receptions and two totes
for 48 total yards.
Holland carried the
ball twice, scored once
and gained 13 yards,
while Parsons scored
from one yard out on his
only try. James Musgrave
and Joel Beattie had
two receptions apiece,
gaining 23 and 19 yards
respectively, while Aiden
Sang caught one pass for
one yard. Hunter Bush
was 3-of-4 passing for
34 yards, all on the Big
Blacks’ ﬁnal drive.
For the Marauders,
Cleland completed 21-of32 passes for 244 yards
and a touchdown. On six
receptions and seven carries, Zach Bartrum had
team-highs of 108 yards
and 12 yards respectively.
Ty Bartrum caught a
game-best seven passes
for 46 yards, Weston
Baer hauled in three
passes for 24 yards,
while Adams caught two
passes, earning 34 yards
and one score. Wesley
Smith caught two passes
for 14 yards, Landon
Acree added an 18-yard
grab, while Abe Lundy
ﬁnished with two carries
for eight yards.
Point Pleasant has
now won three straight
bouts with Meigs, and
improves to 16-5-1 in the
all-time series.
In Week 9, Meigs’
ﬁnal home game will be
against Wellston, while
the Big Blacks travel to
Logan County to face
Man.

Black Knights sweep Belpre, 3-1
By Scott Jones
sjones@aimmediamidwest.com

POINT PLEASANT,
W.Va. — Although the
temperature made for
a cold night, the Black
Knights remained red
hot.
The Point Pleasant
boys soccer team carried
a one-goal advantage into
intermission on Thursday
night and never looked
back en route to a 3-1
victory over visiting Belpre in a non-conference
match in Mason County.
The Black Knights
(15-2-0) never trailed in
the contest as the hosts
picked up their ﬁfth consecutive win in a tightly
contested contest.
The Red and Black
scored the ﬁrst goal of
the game a mere 42 seconds into play as Alberto
Castillo scored — on an
assist from senior Hajin
Kim — to claim a 1-0
lead.
From there, Point
Pleasant widen its margin to 2-0 on an Adam
Veroski goal in the 19th
minute.
Belpre’s Asaphe Santana narrowed the deﬁcit
to 2-1 when his free kick
found the back of the net
with 17:51 remaining
until the break.
Both teams were held
without a goal for the
remainder of the ﬁrst
half, as PPHS held a
single-goal lead at the
intermission.
The two squads
remained separated by
just one tally for a span
of 47:18. Veroski, however ended the scoring
drought, when he netted
his second goal of the
contest — with 10:33
remaining in the match

— to extend the Red and
Black’s advantage to 3-1.
From there, both teams
were held without a goal
as Point Pleasant closed
out the two-goal victory.
The Black Knights
claimed an 22-10 edge
in shots on goal and also
posted a 5-2 advantage in
corner kicks.
Belpre senior goalkeeper Rawlin Barber ﬁnished with eight saves. In
contrast, Point Pleasant’s
Nick Smith and Zach
Rediger stopped three
shots apiece, respectively.
The victory for Red and
Black provided a season
sweep of the Golden
Eagles, having earned a
7-2 triumph on Sept. 4 in
Belpre.
In their two meetings
this season, the two
squads combined for a

total of 71 shots on goal,
with the Black Knights
claiming a 40-21 edge.
PPHS also claimed an
11-4 advantage in corner
kicks, having earned a
6-2 edge in the initial
head-to-head contest of
the season.
The team also celebrated Senior Night festivities prior to the start
of the match recognizing
Kim and Castillo.
Following the game,
PPHS head coach Chip
Wood — who earned
his 101st career victory
— was pleased with his
teams performance.
“We did a great job
of controlling the ball
and working the ball
around,” Wood said.
“The really had their
defense staked tonight
with some of their more

skilled and physical players. They gave us some
challenges out there trying to beat them at the
back. We weren’t able to
play them as direct as
we did in our ﬁrst meeting this season, they
had a lot of strength and
speed on the back line in
this game.
“We maintained a
lot of possession, however, and worked the
ball quite well,” Wood
said. “We were making the right runs, but
we seemed a half-step
behind tonight. Hopefully, we can get back
to our normal speed.
The past two games I
feel like we’ve not been
playing at the pace we
normally do. Tonight
our passes just seemed a
half-second too slow.”
Wood also was candid
with how important the
win was for his senior
players.
“It was really fun,”
Wood said. “We appreciate the foreign exchange
students we have. Hajin
works really hard for us
and a true member of
the team. Alberto is one
of the best exchange students we’ve ever had to
adapt to what we do. It
was really nice that our
ﬁrst goal of the game
was Hajin to Alberto. To
open up our game and
have both of the players
we were honoring get a
stat, that was fun.”

COLUMBUS, Ohio
(AP) — Cleveland
Browns owners Dee
and Jimmy Haslam said
Friday they are part of
a group trying to buy
the Columbus Crew to
keep the MLS team in
the city.
The group, which
also includes Columbus-area investors,
said in a statement
it is moving forward
to acquire the team,
which appeared headed
to Austin, Texas, after
this season. A new
stadium in downtown
Columbus is part of
the plan, although no
details were provided.
The agreement also
provides that Austin,
whose city council had
approved plans for a
new, privately owned
20,000-seat stadium,
will get an MLS expansion team no later than
2021.
“MLS is committed
to keeping Crew SC in
Columbus should we
continue to make progress on these critical
components and agree
to key terms with the
investor group,” the
league said in a statement.
Anthony Precourt,
the San Franciscobased investor who
owns the Crew, had
courted Austin for a
potential move since
last year, contending
that the team was no
longer ﬁnancially viable
in Columbus without
bigger crowds and a
new stadium. Precourt
and Richard Suttle, the
Austin lobbyist who
helped negotiate terms
of a stadium deal there,
did not immediately
respond to requests for
comment on Friday.
In Columbus, the
announcement touched
off wild celebrations
among Crew fans, who
had been working to
save the team since
Precourt made his
plans public last year.
“This is truly a historic moment,” said
David Miller, a spokesman for the Save the
Crew group. “Over the
last year, we’ve proven
that a community of
invested individuals
has the power to make
a big difference.”
Everyone involved
acknowledged that
there are many details
still to be worked out.
The league’s statement
said that success for

the Crew in Columbus
will require “strong
local partners, longterm corporate support, a strong season
ticket base and longterm plans for a stadium, practice facilities
and associated sites.”
The MLS expressed
its commitment to
expand to Austin, saying “regardless of any
scenario in Columbus,
there is a clear path
forward for (Precourt)
to operate Austin FC as
a Major League Soccer
club.”
Austin is the largest
metropolitan area in
the country without
a major league sports
franchise.
“What a wonderful
win/win/win solution!” Austin Mayor
Steve Adler said. “The
MLS commissioner
and Anthony Precourt
both reafﬁrm that
Austin will have major
league soccer opening
the 2021 season in
the new, McKalla stadium.”
Ohio and Columbus ofﬁcials had sued
Precourt and MLS
to stop or slow down
the move. Ohio law
requires teams that use
tax-supported facilities and accept state
ﬁnancial assistance to
give six months’ notice
and give local investors a chance to buy
the team. The law was
enacted after the NFL’s
Cleveland Browns
moved to Baltimore in
1996.
The Haslams, owners of the Browns since
2012, are still seeking
on-the-ﬁeld success
in Cleveland. Their
tenure in Cleveland
has included numerous
coaching and frontofﬁce changes as the
Browns have been one
of the league’s worst
teams for several years.
Cleveland became
just the second franchise to lose all 16
games last season,
when the Haslams
again swept out most
of their management
team but retained
coach Hue Jackson
despite his 1-31 record
over two seasons. They
brought in former
Kansas City general
manager John Dorsey
to handle personnel,
and the Browns are
already showing major
improvement this season.

Browns turn home field into advantage
CLEVELAND (AP)
— Empty seats. Anemic
football. Bad vibes.
Home ﬁeld hasn’t
meant any advantage
in recent years for the
Browns, who entered this
season with three wins in
their last 27 home games
at FirstEnergy Stadium,
dubbed “The Factory of
Sadness.”
Madness has been the
norm so far this season.
The Browns (2-2-1)
have played two overtime games already at
home and rallied to win
a nationally televised
Thursday nighter to
end their 19-game winless streak and breathe
life into a fan base that
couldn’t take much more
misery.
Lifeless for years, the
Dawg Pound is howling
once more, and Browns
coach Hue Jackson
begged Cleveland fans
to bring the noise for

Sunday’s game against
the Los Angeles Chargers
(3-2).
“I want them to be as
loud as they have ever
been,” Jackson pleaded.
“This week our players will need that. We
need that assistance for
them. They have been
outstanding, but boy,
we need a little bit more
from them this week,
too. “
Jackson’s hoping a
roaring crowd will make
things tougher on Chargers quarterback Philip
Rivers, who is off to
one of the best starts of
his 15-year NFL career.
Rivers has thrown 13
touchdown passes and
two interceptions, and
Jackson believes Cleveland’s crowd can be as
disruptive as any of the
Browns’ 11 defenders.
“He’s one of the best
that have played the
game,” Jackson said. “It

does not look like he is
slowing down at all. He
is one of the top quarterbacks in this league, bar
none. We need 12 people
when they are on offense,
and the 12th person is
going to be our crowd.”
Rivers often resets his
offense before the snap,
changing the plays after
taking a look at how the
defense is aligned. The
Browns experienced that
last season in a 19-10
loss to the Chargers.
“We’ve just got to do
a better job of bogeying and disguising and
making it harder for
him to do that,” Browns
linebacker Joe Schobert
said. “I think being at
home this year, where it
will be harder for him to
make checks if we have
a loud crowd, will be an
advantage to us. It will
be harder for them to
change every single play
that will be perfectly

what they want.”
Rivers enjoys playing
in Cleveland.
“It is a great, kind of
an old-school NFL atmosphere,” he said.
But while the setting
may feel dated, Rivers
knows there’s nothing
out of style about the
Browns and their young
defense, which is leading the league with 15
takeaways. After playing
against the Browns last
season, Rivers felt it
was just a matter of time
before they jelled.
“It did not feel like
they were an 0-16 team
or 0-14, whatever they
were when we played
them last year,” he said.
“It was a good football
team. They just did
not ﬁnd ways to win. I
remember our guys walking away with a heck of
a lot of respect for that
defense.”
This time, the Char-

gers will also have to deal
with a hungry Cleveland
crowd that has watched
rookie Baker Mayﬁeld
lead two wins already.
“We feed off of the
crowd’s energy,” Mayﬁeld
said. “We need to continue that, and this needs
to be a place that people
need to fear coming to
play. It needs to be so
loud that they can’t communicate, and it needs
to be a harsh place for an
offense to come in.”
Off target
In a season of balls
going wide right, wide
left and clanking off
uprights around the NFL,
the Chargers and Browns
have had more than their
share of kicking issues.
The Chargers have
missed a league-leading
four extra points, the
Browns are tied for
second with three. The
teams are also near the

bottom in ﬁeld-goal accuracy: San Diego is 9 for
12, Cleveland 8 for 12.
Chargers coach Anthony Lynn gave kicker
Caleb Sturgis a tepid vote
of conﬁdence by signing
a new holder last week,
but Sturgis has been
slowed by a quad injury.
The team signed Michael
Badgley, a rookie from
Miami who could kick
against the Browns.
Meanwhile, Cleveland’s
on its second kicker: Greg
Joseph, who missed a
ﬁeld goal and PAT last
week before knuckling
through a 37-yard ﬁeld
goal to beat Baltimore in
overtime.

Just a bit outside! Uecker throws out NLCS 1st pitch

MILWAUKEE (AP) — The
pitch from Bob Uecker was,
predictably, just a bit outside.
The Milwaukee Brewers
announcer is always good for
a laugh, even before the ﬁrst
game of the NL Championship
Series.
“Bob will be throwing out
the (ceremonial) ﬁrst pitch
tonight,” a press conference
moderator said as Uecker
walked to a podium a couple
hours before the Brewers hosted the Los Angeles Dodgers at
Miller Park.

“I am,” the straight-faced
Uecker joked quizzically.
There is perhaps no better ambassador for Brewers
baseball than the 84-year-old
Uecker.
Fittingly, he’s known by the
nickname “Mr. Baseball.”
In his 48th season calling
Brewers games, Uecker is
beloved in his hometown of
Milwaukee for his dry wit and
entertaining calls.
The Brewers have two statues dedicated to Uecker at Miller Park, including one in the

last row of the upper deck that
commemorates one of Uecker’s
commercials for Miller Lite in
which he repeated the phrase “I

He remains an important
member of the Brewers, considered as much a part of the
organization as MVP candidate
Christian Yelich or veteran outﬁelder Ryan Braun.
A Hall of Fame broadcaster,
Uecker can relate to the current
generation of players in different ways.

Young Bengals trying to end Steelers’ domination of rivalry
CINCINNATI (AP)
— Cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick knows what it’s
like to think that victory
is only a few seconds
away, only to watch the
Pittsburgh Steelers rally
for another improbable
win, and run off the ﬁeld
as thousands of their fans
twirl towels in the stands.
Many of Kirkpatrick’s
teammates haven’t been
on the sideline for those
blow-to-the-gut ﬁnishes,
which might work to the
Bengals’ advantage on
Sunday as they revisit a
rivalry that’s more of a
horror story for Cincinnati.
The Bengals (4-1) have
their youngest team in
coach Marvin Lewis’ 16
seasons as they get ready
to host the Steelers (2-21). Nineteen of them are
in their ﬁrst or second
season — virtual newcomers to the one-sided
series.
“It’s kind of good

that some of these guys
haven’t experienced it
because we’re trying to go
in with clear minds, clear
everything,” Kirkpatrick
said. “Just going out there
and playing our game and
not (remembering) nothing that happened two or
three years ago, or last
year.”
The Steelers know their
history.
Pittsburgh has won six
straight in the series ,
including an 18-16 victory
in the ﬁrst round of the
2015 playoffs that included an historic meltdown
by the Bengals. The Steelers have won nine of 10
and 14 of 17 against their
AFC North rival, getting
the better of games that
have often turned nasty.
“Yeah, you get amped
up there,” Steelers linebacker Bud Dupree said.
“It’s their house. They’re
trying to be so tough.”
Some of the main
ﬁgures in the most

Nevada regulator suspends
Khabib, McGregor for UFC brawl
LAS VEGAS (AP) — UFC ﬁghters
Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor
McGregor are being suspended by
the Nevada Athletic Commission for a
brawl that erupted inside and outside
the octagon after their lightweight
title ﬁght last weekend in Las Vegas,
an ofﬁcial said.
Letters were sent Wednesday
informing both mixed martial arts
ﬁghters that they will be suspended
for at least 10 days effective Oct. 15,
commission executive Bob Bennett
said Thursday.
A commission investigation is pending and the panel can extend the temporary suspension when it meets Oct.

24, Bennett said. Nurmagomedov
and McGregor could also appeal Bennett’s executive action at that time.
Nurmagomedov, who was praised
by Russian President Vladimir Putin
during a meeting Wednesday in
Moscow, responded with an angry
Instagram post saying he was being
unfairly punished.
The ﬁghter complained that discipline didn’t follow an incident last
April in Brooklyn, New York, when
McGregor shattered windows of Nurmagomedov’s bus with a hand truck
after Nurmagomedov confronted
one of McGregor’s teammates days
earlier.

ing out.
“Many of the signiﬁcant contributors don’t
play for us (anymore),
they don’t play for them,”
Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said.
Some things to watch
Sunday at Paul Brown
Stadium:

Shazier back
Steelers linebacker
Ryan Shazier suffered
a spinal injury at Paul
Brown Stadium last
Dec. 4 when he lowered
his helmet and tackled
receiver Josh Malone.
Shazier was taken to
a local hospital. Ten
months later, he’s still
recovering and it’s
unclear whether he can
ever play again. Shazier

is on the sideline during
games and is expected to
be in Cincinnati with his
teammates on Sunday.
Big-play Bengals
Pittsburgh is known
for its tenacious defense,
but the Bengals have
made some of the biggest plays this season.
They’ve returned three
turnovers for touchdowns, including an
interception and a fumble in the fourth quarter
of a 27-17 win over
Miami on Sunday. The
Bengals’ rotation on the
line has kept them fresh
for the endings of games.
“Guys were really,
really getting after it,
and it was fun to watch,”
coordinator Teryl Austin
said. “It makes the game
easy to call when you
know the guys are going
to push the pocket back
and get after the quarterback and harass the
quarterback.”

Lopsided history
The Steelers are 24-8
against the Bengals
since they hired Marvin
Lewis as coach in 2003.
They’re 15-2 at Paul
Brown Stadium during
that span, including
playoff wins in the
2005 and 2015 seasons.
During their current
six-game winning streak
against Cincinnati, the
Steelers have overcome
deﬁcits of 17-3 and 17-0.
They have two lastminute wins.

yards from the 2-yard
line to the 15 in 2015.
But kickers are missing
even more attempts this
season. Through ﬁve
weeks, there have been
20 missed extra points.
There were 17 in each of
the previous two seasons
at this point and 18 in
2015.
Deshaun’s quest
Deshaun Watson can
become the ﬁrst quarterback to throw for 375
yards or more in four
consecutive games when
the Houston Texans host
Buffalo. Ryan Fitzpatrick
did it in the ﬁrst three
games this season.
