years of Meigs County, the art of
young students and more are on
display as part of the ﬁrst tree display in the village of Middleport.
Near the “T” in Middleport,
where there was an empty grass
lot a few weeks ago, there are now
several decorated Christmas trees,
the work of businesses, individuals
and organizations.
The idea for the tree display
came about a few weeks ago with
village ofﬁcials, including Administrator Joe Woodall and the Recreation Committee, working to bring
the idea to life.
Mayor Sandy Iannarelli
explained that the idea was being
modeled after what Gallipolis
has done for the past several
years with the trees at Gallipolis
in Lights, although on a smaller
scale.
Among the trees is one
decorated with cutouts of Meigs
County and “200”, along with
ornaments listing each of the

Gunfire at site leads to chase
DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — Authorities say a man
suspected of shooting at a building that houses
an Ohio police department was wounded when
he exchanged gunﬁre with responding ofﬁcers
after a chase. The Montgomery County Sheriff’s
Ofﬁce says the suspect ﬁred shots Friday toward
the administrative building in Clay Township, a
few miles northwest of Dayton, and then ﬂed in a
vehicle. That led to a pursuit, which ended when
authorities used a tire-deﬂation device to stop the
vehicle. They say the man then ﬁred again, and
ofﬁcers returned ﬁre. No ofﬁcers were hurt during
the incident. The wounded suspect was taken to
a hospital. Authorities didn’t immediately share
information about him publicly, including his condition and his identity.

United States Supreme
Court updates, ﬁrearms
prosecutions, digital evidence, and legal professionalism.
Holdren and Fisher
had the opportunity to
meet with Ohio Speaker
of the House and Bidwell
native Ryan Smith.
“The ofﬁcials at OPAA
worked really hard to
connect their prosecutors with a state senator
or representative,” said
Holdren. “We were able
to be connected with
Ryan and we touched
base on a number of
items that prosecutors in
general were interested
in. It was good.”
“So, the strangulation
legislation was a big
point for us,” Holdren
continued. “Right now,
the law stands that
essentially domestic violence is a misdemeanor
of the ﬁrst-degree. It
only bumps up if you
can show serious physical harm and if you can
show that, it bumps it up
to a felony of the seconddegree. With felonious
assault, you’re usually
talking about shootings,
stabbings, broken bones

and those sorts of things.
There’s nothing really
in between. Something
of great interest to us is
that we enhance the penalty if we can show that
during some sort of an
assault there was strangulation used.”
Other topics covered
with the speaker, said
Holdren, included the
increased presence of
fentanyl and carfentanyl
in drug trafﬁcking. He
said Gallia representatives discussed concern
with what appears to be
a growing trend in motor
vehicles being operated
while drivers are reportedly impaired by more
than just alcohol and how
to tackle the situation.
“Other legislation we
brieﬂy touched on was
dismemberment issues,”
said Holdren. “Which has
absolutely affected Gallia County…It was very
eye opening for us to see
what he’s (Smith) actually doing. His staff were
very good to us and gave
us a tour of the House
Chambers and the like.
Ryan also mentioned us
during their session as a
special guest.”

MEIGS HEALTH MATTERS

Stomach Flu or Norovirus?
I’m sure many of us
have been sick with what
many people refer to as
the “Stomach Flu”. While
the stomach ﬂu isn’t actually a real illness, Norovirus is very real. Norovirus, sometimes referred
to simply as Noro in public health, is not related
to the ﬂu virus in anyway.
But it usually causes the
same symptoms that people experience when they
have the “Stomach Flu”.
The most common
symptoms associated
with Norovirus are diarrhea, vomiting, nausea,
and stomach pain. Some
other symptoms that are
occasionally associated
with Noro include fever,
headache, and body
aches. These symptoms
usually develop 12 to 48
hours after being exposed
to Norovirus. Symptoms
usually last about 1 to 3
days, but the virus can
stay in your poop for up
to two weeks after you
start to feel better. If a

Runners braved the rain and the cooler temperatures to take part in the annual Keep Your Fork 5K.

A run and a reminder

Keep Your Fork race reminds ‘the best is yet to come’
By Sarah Hawley
shawley@aimmediamidwest.com

ROCKSPRINGS —
Damp and cool conditions did not stop runners and spectators from
taking part in the 17th
annual Keep Your Fork
5K race last weekend
in memory of Brandi
Thomas.
The race, which is
held the Saturday after
Thanksgiving each year,

Brandi Thomas Memorial
Scholarship
Keep your

fork… the
which
best is yet awards
two
to come,
scholarships
each year to Meigs
students who have been
involved in cross country
and/or track and ﬁeld.
The race gets it’s name
from the tale of the
woman and the fork.
As the story goes, a
young woman who was
nearing death from a
terminal illness had one
ﬁnal request of her rabbi.
The woman explained,
‘In all my years of attending church socials and
dinners, I always remember that when the dishes
of the main courses were
being cleared, someone
would inevitably lean
over and say, “Keep your
fork.” It was my favorite part because I knew
that something better
was coming…like velvety
chocolate cake or deepdish apple pie. Something
wonderful, and with
substance! So, I just want
people to see me there in
that casket with a fork
in my hand and I want
them to wonder, “What’s
with the fork?” Then I
want you to tell them:
“Keep your fork… The
best is yet to come.”
Cheryl Thomas, Brandi’s mother, explained
that soon after her passing, as the family was discussing plans for the possible 5K, they were given
the story of the woman
and the fork. From that
came the name for the
race held each year in
memory of Brandi.

TODAY IN HISTORY
Today is Sunday, Dec.
2, the 336th day of 2018.
There are 29 days left in
the year.
Today’s Highlight in
History:
On Dec. 2, 1982, in the
ﬁrst operation of its kind,
doctors at the University
of Utah Medical Center
implanted a permanent
artiﬁcial heart in the
chest of retired dentist
Dr. Barney Clark, who
lived 112 days with the
device.
On this date:
In 1823, President
James Monroe outlined
his doctrine opposing
European expansion in
the Western Hemisphere.
In 1859, militant abolitionist John Brown
was hanged for his raid
on Harpers Ferry the
previous October. Artist
Georges-Pierre Seurat
was born in Paris.
In 1927, Ford Motor

Co. unveiled its Model A
automobile that replaced
its Model T.
In 1939, New York
Municipal AirportLaGuardia Field (later
LaGuardia Airport)
went into operation as
an airliner from Chicago
landed at one minute past
midnight.
In 1942, an artiﬁcially
created, self-sustaining
nuclear chain reaction
was demonstrated for the
ﬁrst time at the University of Chicago.
In 1954, the U.S. Senate passed, 67-22, a
resolution condemning
Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy,
R-Wis., saying he had
“acted contrary to senatorial ethics and tended to
bring the Senate into dishonor and disrepute.”
In 1957, the Shippingport Atomic Power Station in Pennsylvania, the
ﬁrst full-scale commercial
nuclear facility in the
U.S., began operations.

(The reactor ceased operating in 1982.)
In 1970, the newly created Environmental Protection Agency opened
its doors under its ﬁrst
director, William D. Ruckelshaus.
In 1980, four American
churchwomen were raped
and murdered outside
San Salvador. (Five
national guardsmen were
convicted in the killings.)
In 1993, Colombian
drug lord Pablo Escobar
was shot to death by security forces in Medellin.
In 2001, in one of the
largest corporate bankruptcies in U.S. history,
Enron ﬁled for Chapter
11 protection.
In 2015, a couple loyal
to Islamic State opened
ﬁre at a holiday banquet
for public employees in
San Bernardino, California, killing 14 people
and wounding 21 others
before dying in a shootout with police.

Ten years ago: President-elect Barack Obama
promised swift action
on an economic plan
“to solve this crisis and
to ease the burden on
our states.” Republican
Saxby Chambliss won
a Georgia runoff, denying Democrats a 60-seat,
ﬁlibuster-proof majority
in the Senate (until Al
Franken’s belated victory
over Norm Coleman in
Minnesota). Folk singer
Odetta died in New York
at age 77. Henry Molaison, the patient known
as “H.M.” whose severe
amnesia led to groundbreaking studies of how
memory works, died in
Connecticut at age 82.
Five years ago: On
“Cyber Monday,” perhaps
the busiest online shopping day of the year, the
Supreme Court refused
to wade into a dispute
over state sales taxes for
purchases on websites
like Amazon.com, paving

Thought for Today: “When we cannot find
contentment in ourselves it is useless to
seek it elsewhere.”

French author (1613-1680)

the way for more states
to attempt to collect taxes
on Internet sales. Actor
Christopher Evan Welch,
48, died in Santa Monica,
California.
One year ago: President
Donald Trump changed
his story on why he ﬁred
Michael Flynn as his
national security adviser,
now suggesting that he
knew at the time that
Flynn had lied to the FBI
about his contacts with
Russians. ABC News
suspended investigative
reporter Brian Ross for
four weeks without pay
for an erroneous report
about Flynn. (Ross had
reported that then-candidate Trump had directed
Flynn to make contact
with the Russians; Ross
clariﬁed the report hours
later, saying that his
source now said Trump
had not done so as a candidate, but as presidentelect.)
Today’s Birthdays:
Former Attorney General
Edwin Meese III is 87.
Former Sen. Harry Reid,
D-Nev., is 79. Actress
Cathy Lee Crosby is 74.
Movie director Penelope
Spheeris is 73. Actor Ron
Raines is 69. Country

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Ohio’s next elections
chief says he believes heightened, inaccurate rhetoric
by candidates, parties and journalists about ﬂaws in
the U.S. election system is undermining voter conﬁdence, so he’s working to reduce such language.
Republican Frank LaRose takes ofﬁce in January as
secretary of state.
He urged participants at a conference Friday to help
him ease voters’ minds. He says he’s delivered the
same message to county election ofﬁcials.

IRVINE, Calif. — Corner kick opportunities
had been good to the University of Rio Grande
all season long.
But in the biggest match of the season to date,
it was an opponent’s corner kick chance that
ended the RedStorm’s quest for a national championship.
Missouri Valley College’s Noah Dalle scored
on the rebound off a corner kick by the Vikings

Dalle’s goal - his ﬁrst of the season - capped
off a scramble in front of the net in which the
ball touched three different players.
Dalle played a ricochet off his teammate,
Ruben Jiminez, and managed to tap the ball past
Rio junior goal keeper Richard Dearle (Castle
Donington, England) for the game-winner.
The Vikings got the win despite being outshot, 13-8, including 6-5 in shots on goal. Four
of MVC’s shots came in the overtime periods.
Missouri Valley grabbed a 1-0 lead just under
11 minutes into the contest and did so without
taking a shot.
Rio Grande was whistled for a foul just outside of the 18-yard box resulting in a Missouri
Valley free kick and Luka Gluscevic’s subsequent
kick deﬂected off a RedStorm defender and into
the goal for an own goal.
That’s how things stayed until senior Harry
Reilly (Coventry, England) managed an unassisted marker with 9:39 left in regulation to
knot the score and set up the dramatic overtime
ﬁnish.
Dearle ﬁnished with four saves in a losing
cause for the RedStorm.
Patrick Irankunda had ﬁve saves for the
Vikings.
The loss marked the ﬁnal game in a Rio
uniform for Reilly, Ben Mendoza (Chichester,
England), Mitchell Osmond (Sydney, Australia),
Harry Robinson (London, England) and Eduardo Zurita (Sant Boi de Llobregat, Spain).

Marauders stymie Southern, 60-43
By Alex Hawley

RACINE, Ohio — A
game-clinching run
doesn’t always happen at
the end.
The Meigs boys basketball team held non-conference host Southern scoreless for over six minutes
in the middle of Friday’s
season-opener in Meigs
County, as the Marauders turned a three-point
deﬁcit into a double-digit
lead and never looked
back on their way to the
60-43 victory.
After a pair of early
lead changes, Southern
(0-1) built its largest lead
of the night, at 12-5, with
3:30 left in the opening
quarter. Meigs (1-0)
trimmed its deﬁcit to two
points, at 14-12, by the
end of the quarter.
The Tornadoes outscored Meigs 7-to-6 over
the ﬁrst three minutes of
the second quarter, but
the Marauders tallied 11
consecutive points to take
a 29-21 lead into the half.
The Maroon and Gold
hit back-to-back buckets
in the opening minute of
the second half, before
Southern snapped its cold
spell with a two-pointer
of its own.
The Marauder lead
grew to as high as 19
points, at 44-25, with two
minutes left in the third.
However, the Tornadoes
ended the period with an
11-2 run, trimming their
deﬁcit to 10 points, at
46-36.

“When you’re coaching high school athletes,
they’re going to make mistakes. What you
have to do is battle through those mistakes,
and I think we did that tonight.”
— Jeremy Hil
Marauders head coach

Meigs began the fourth
quarter with a 6-to-3 run
in the ﬁrst 3:30, and then
both teams tallied four
points in the following
minute. The Marauder
defense locked down the
60-43 victory by holding
Southern scoreless for the
ﬁnal 3:30 of regulation.
The triumph is win No.
1 in the Maroon and Gold
for ﬁrst-year Marauders
head coach Jeremy Hill,
who was delighted with
how his team performed
in their season-debut.
“Anytime you get a win
it feels great, but I really
feel good for the kids,”
Hill said. “They’re just
phenomenal, they have a
lot of talent and a lot of
athleticism. They work
hard, they play hard,
they’re extremely respectful and they’re more
coachable than you could
ever imagine.
“When you’re coaching high school athletes,
they’re going to make
mistakes. What you have
to do is battle through
those mistakes, and I
think we did that tonight.
I told them, ‘the game
is based on runs, they’re
going to go on a run, it’s
about how you react to
it,’ and I think we reacted
well. We stopped them

and then went on a run of
our own.”
Conversely, 11th-year
Tornadoes head coach
Jeff Caldwell acknowledged the areas that gave
the Marauders an edge,
and identiﬁed areas his
team must improve on.
“They cranked up their
defense and we didn’t
respond to it very well,”
Caldwell said. “They hurt
us on the boards all night,
and our defense was not
good, so we have to get
better defensively and we
have to rebound. We also
need to be able to handle
the pressure.
“Foul trouble hurt us
a little bit tonight, some
guys we were expecting a lot out of were in
foul trouble, but that’s
absolutely no excuse. We
have to have ﬁve guys
out there playing better
on each end of the ﬂoor.
Credit to Meigs, we got
ahead of them early, they
responded and came right
back after us. I’m looking
forward to getting back in
here on Tuesday.”
For the game, Meigs
shot 24-of-58 (41.4
percent) from the ﬁeld,
including 3-of-11 (27.3
percent) from three-point
range, while Southern
shot 15-of-50 (30 per-

cent) from the ﬂoor, with
a 7-of-24 (29.2 percent)
three-point mark. At the
free throw line, MHS was
9-of-14 (64.3 percent),
while SHS was 6-of-11
(54.5 percent).
The Maroon and
Gold claimed a 42-to-23
advantage in rebounding, including 14-to-7
on the offensive glass.
The Marauders totalled
13 assists, 11 steals, 16
turnovers and one rejection, while the Tornadoes
combined for nine assists,
seven steals, 18 turnovers
and one blocked shot.
MHS junior Weston
Baer made eight ﬁeld
goals, including one
three-pointer, on his way
to a game-best 20 points.
Zach Bartrum made a
team-best two triples, and
ﬁnished with 17 points,
while Nick Lilly came in
with nine points and a
game-high 12 rebounds.
Wyatt Hoover scored
six points for the victors,
while Ty Bartrum, Coulter Cleland, Cooper Darst
and Bobby Musser tallied
two points apiece. Darst
and Zach Bartrum led
the Marauders with four
assists apiece, with Darst
also recording the team’s
lone rejection. Cleland,
Ty Bartrum and Zach
Bartrum marked two
steals apiece for the MHS
defense.
Jensen Anderson

Webb signs with Ohio volleyball
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@aimmediamidwest.
com

CENTENARY, Ohio
— A brand-new Bobcat
with plenty of attack.
On Wednesday at
Gallia Academy High
School, senior Ashton Webb — the Blue
Angels’ all-time leader
in kills — signed her
National Letter of
Intent to join the Ohio
University volleyball
team next season.
Webb — an outside
hitter and defensive
specialist on the
court — has realized
a life-long dream, but
acknowledged that she
still has plenty of work
ahead of her.
“I’m really excited to
go to OU and be part
of such a great team,”
Webb said. “I’ve had
the dream forever to go
Division 1 and play at a
high-level, now that it’s
coming true and I can’t
wait to be there. My
goals are to get stronger in my ﬁrst year and
prove that I’m an asset
player to the team. I
want to be a leader, do
my best, work really
hard, get a degree in
education, come back
and coach sometime.”
In four seasons with
the Blue Angels, Webb
has helped the squad
to a 91-9 record, ﬁve
league titles, and four
sectional crowns.
Webb was named to
the All-Ohio third team
in both her junior and
senior seasons, becoming the ﬁrst Blue Angel
to earn multiple allstate volleyball honors.
GAHS head volleyball
coach Janice Rosier has
known for a while just
what kind of player she
had in Webb.
“We’ve known Ashton
was special since her

team. Sitting in the front row, from left, are Shannon Webb,

freshman year, maybe
before that,” Rosier
said. “You always hope
that they’re going to
see big things come of
it, but seeing her make
it to a D-1 level and
watching her dreams
come true is amazing.
She was a great player
to have around, obviously you can’t replace
that.”
As a senior, Webb
had a team-high 369
kills — giving her a
career total of 1,086 —
along with a 33.4 hitting percentage. Webb’s
75 aces this fall were
second on the team and
put her six-shy of 300
for her career. She also
recorded 10 blocks and
172 digs as a senior.
Webb was a threetime All-Ohio Valley
Conference ﬁrst teamer,
after being selected as
an honorable mention
as a freshman. A twotime District 13 player
of the year, Webb was
a ﬁrst team selection
three times, following
an honorable mention
nod as a freshman.
With everything she’s
contributed to her
team, Webb is grateful for everything her

school has given back
to her.
“My time at Gallia
Academy has been
anything I could have
wished for,” Webb said.
“Coming in freshman
year, you’re anxious
about where you’ll be
and where you’ll play,
but I got the opportunity to play varsity from
the start. It was a great
opportunity these last
four years, I’ve developed into a great player
and I can’t do anything
but thank Gallia Academy for that.”
Webb’s volleyball success hasn’t only been
in high school, as she
was an All-American
performer at the 2016
USA Volleyball’s Girls
Junior National Championships.
Webb holds a 3.7
grade-point average and
is currently ranked 19th
in the GAHS Class of
2019.
Ashton plans on
majoring in Early Childhood Education, while
helping the Bobcats
improve on this season’s 13-18 record.

Chargers, Steelers only looking at small picture

in NFL history.
The longtime Chargers quarterback understands there’s no time.
Not with the Chargers

ahead in the middle of
a tight AFC playoff race
and a trip to AFC Northleading Pittsburgh (7-31) looming, one that

Rivers said.

three touchdown passes
or his record-tying 25
straight completions.

old-school NFL atmospheres,” Rivers said.
“Throw in fact it’s in
December they are right

AFC and you expect a
heck of a game.”
One the Steelers need
just as badly as the
Chargers. Pittsburgh
had its six-game winning
streak end last week in
Denver, a 24-17 setback
littered with the kind
of sloppy mistakes the
Steelers largely avoided
while righting their
season following a 1-2-1
start. Pittsburgh turned

times in the red zone,

Rebels edge past Vikings, 70-68
By Scott Jones

MERCERVILLE, Ohio
— Off on the right foot.
The South Gallia boys
basketball team held a
10-point advantage entering the ﬁnal quarter of
Friday night’s seasonopening contest in Gallia County, but visiting
Symmes Valley rallied
to narrow the margin to
two points, as the Rebels
edged past the Vikings
for a 70-68 victory.
SGHS (1-0) took its

The Rebels shot 9-of-20

ROCKSPRINGS,
Ohio — It’s safe to
say the Lady Marauders have enjoyed the
ﬁrst week of the season.
After posting 90
points in the seasonopener, the Meigs
girls basketball team
provided an impressive follow-up act on
Thursday inside Larry
R. Morrison Gymnasium, as the Lady
Marauders claimed
a 57-45 victory over
non-conference guest
Warren, a 19-win
team a year ago that
swept MHS in two
meetings.
Meigs (2-0) led by
just two points, at
11-9, after one quarter, but the Maroon
and Gold added two
more to its advantage
in the second and
took a 23-19 edge into
the half.
In the third quarter,
the Lady Marauders nailed eight ﬁeld
goals, three of which
came from beyond the
arc. The MHS defense
also stepped up in the
third, holding Warren
to just seven points,
as the hosts headed
into the ﬁnale with a
44-26 advantage.
The Lady Warriors
poured in 19 points
over the ﬁnal eight
minutes, but Meigs
tallied 13 to seal the

57-45 victory.
The Lady Marauders were 12-of-16
(75 percent) from
the free throw line in
the game, including
6-of-8 (75 percent)
in the fourth quarter.
Meanwhile, WHS was
10-of-18 (55.6 percent) from the stripe.
MHS senior Becca
Pullins led the Lady
Marauders with 21
points, 18 of which
came on six of the
team’s seven threepointers. Mallory
Hawley scored 14
points for the victors, Kassidy Betzing

and has 19 quarterback hits, and
Clowney has seven sacks and 15

“I have a job to do and that’s
my job to go out there and hopefully end that streak,” Watt said.
“They’ve obviously been doing a
good job. It’s going to be a good
battle.”
Mayﬁeld, who hasn’t been
sacked in two games, said he’s
watched Watt play since the
quarterback was in high school
and knows he’ll have to account
for him and Clowney on every
play. “I have to get it out very

guys, but they are talented. The
emphasis has to be on getting
the ball out, which we have been
trying to do these past weeks.
We have to keep doing it.”
The Texans know the key to
stretching their franchise-record
winning streak to nine games
will be slowing down Mayﬁeld,
the top overall pick in this year’s
draft. Mayﬁeld has 17 touchdowns and seven interceptions
in eight starts this season and
is coming off a season-best four
touchdown performance in
Cleveland’s 35-20 win at Cincinnati last week.
“Baker’s a winner,” Houston
coach Bill O’Brien said. “He’s a
competitor, very accurate, has
a great instinct for the game,
excellent ability to keep plays
alive. I can just tell you we hold
him in very high regard.”
While Houston attempts to
contain Mayﬁeld, the Browns
will try and limit the Texans’
young quarterback Deshaun
Watson, who is also coming off
a good game. Watson threw two
touchdown passes and ran for a
career-high 70 yards and a score
in a 34-17 win over Tennessee
on Monday.

Like most Southern

of my era I like it with

The backstrap (tenderloins) are the best,
most tender part of the
deer, and are usually
sliced into thin steaks.
They can be seared
as-is in an oily skillet
or lightly breaded and
fried. Short of overcooking them it is
hard to mess up these
delectable morsels. My
mouth is watering just
thinking about it.
When it comes to

question is “Sliced or
ground?” Me, I am
partial to using ground
venison mixed with
an off-the-shelf jerky
seasoning mix (usually good for about
15 pounds of ground
venison), squeezed
out into strips with a
“jerky gun,” and ran
through a dehydrator.
Of course, you can
always slice the venison into strips, marinate it in a seasoning
of your choice, and dry
it in the oven.
While I prefer the

texture of ground venison jerky, it’s a sure bet
that once you ﬁne tune
your recipe, no matter how you make it,
it won’t last very long
once your family and
friends get ahold of it.

all delicious.
For some people it
is hard to get used to
eating venison or wild

complaint is that it is
“gamey.”
While it is fair to say
that a tough, old buck
is going to taste a little
stronger than a tender,
young doe, much of
the taste of wild game,
particularly deer, is
going to depend on
how it was treated in
the ﬁeld – an animal

In short, game care
