Sheriff’s office bond issue refiled
County awaits word from state
By Sarah Hawley
shawley@civitasmedia.com
POMEROY — And
now they wait.
The Meigs County
Commissioners refiled
paperwork with the
Board of Elections on
Wednesday afternoon
regarding the placement
of a bond issue on the
May ballot for the Meigs
County Sheriff’s Office
and Correctional Facility
after the initial paperFile photo

file photo.
Meigs County Commissioner Tim Ihle
explained that the paperwork had to be redone
as the form initially
submitted, which is typically used for tax levies,
was rejected. Ihle said
they were told that form
was not the correct one,
prompting him to call the
Secretary of State’s office
to seek guidance.
Ihle said he was
referred by the Secretary of State’s Office to
the Ohio Revised Code,
which Prosecutor James
K. Stanley then used
when drafting the original language for the bond
issue. There is no form
available from the state
which can be completed
by the county, or another
agency, in order to place
a bond issue on the ballot. Ihle said the form
that was used was the
same one many counties,
including Meigs, have
used for several years.
All of the information for the form was
approved in a resolution
during Monday’s special
commissioner meeting. On Wednesday, it
was simply putting the
already approved information onto the form as
required by the Secretary
of State.
Now, the county must
wait on word from the
Secretary of State’s
Office if the bond issue
has been approved.
That approval could
come as soon as Thursday morning according
to the Board of Elections.
The county is seeking a 2.95 mill property
tax levy which would
generate more than $1.1
million per year for the
construction, equipping

Long Bottom man
sentenced to prison for
setting home on fire
By Sarah Hawley
shawley@civitasmedia.com
POMEROY — A Long Bottom man has been
sentenced to five years in prison after pleading
guilty on Wednesday to aggravated arson.
Dennis Persons pleaded guilty to the amended
charge of aggravated arson, a second-degree
felony. He was initially indicted on a first-degree
felony charge of aggravated arson.
Immediately following the plea, Judge I. Carson
Crow proceeded to sentence Persons in accordance with the plea agreement.
Crow sentenced Persons to a prison term of
five years, with three years of community control
(post-release control) following his release. Persons was also ordered to pay slightly more than
$1,100 in restitution and must also register on the
arson offender registry.
Meigs County Prosecutor James K. Stanley
explained to the Sentinel that the first degree
felony charge relates to the intentional harm of a
person, while the second degree charge relates to
the structure itself.
According to previous Sentinel reports, Persons
reportedly set fire to his residence with his wife
and her brother inside the residence on the morning of March 3, 2016.
Persons and his wife were reportedly able to
leave the residence without injury, while her
brother was injured.
Stanley said that he spoke with the victims in
the case leading up to the plea hearing in the case.
While Persons’ wife did not want him to go to
prison in the case, Stanley said, she understood
that given the situation it was necessary.
On the other hand, the other victim in the case,
his wife’s brother, was in favor of the five year
prison sentence after not being in favor with a former proposed plea agreement, leading to Stanley
scrapping that and working with a new offer.
In coming to a resolution in the case, Stanley
said the victims were considered and that the
agreement was made to keep the victims from having to testify in the case.
Stanley called it a traumatic and emotional experience for the victims.
Ultimately, Stanley said he would have liked to
have gotten more of a prison sentence, but the five
years was fair in the situation.

Lee Morris presents a check to the Meigs County Cancer Initiative with the proceeds from the annual poker run held in memory of his
mother.
Giving back to help others
By Jessica Marcum
Special to the Sentinel
POMEROY — Cancer
affects us all, directly or
indirectly.
Lee Morris’s mother,
Ann, passed away from
lung cancer. Morris,
himself, is 3 years cancer
free. A big help to him
while he was traveling
multiple times a week for
his treatments was the
Meigs County Cancer
Initiative (MCCI). They
provided him with gas
vouchers that helped to
offset the costs of travel.
Eventually, Morris
found himself in a spot
where he could give back
to an organization that
had helped him so much.
Rather than just make
a donation himself, he
instead decided to get
other people involved to
raise more money than
he himself on his own
could donate.
As a result, almost
five years ago the first
Ann Morris Poker Run
was held to benefit the
MCCI. To date, $9,300
has been raised, with
over $2,300 of that
raised at last year’s benefit alone. Every penny
raised has gone towards
the MCCI’s gas voucher
program. Last year’s benefit ensured that roughly
118 vouchers can be
distributed among those
in Meigs County with
cancer.
The date for 2017’s
benefit has already
been set for Sept. 10,
2017. Registration for
the event is $10. The
Poker Run will take
place concurrently with
a spaghetti dinner, silent
auction, and indoor rummage sale. The spaghetti
dinner, silent auction,
and indoor rummage
sale will all take place at
the Rutland Civic Center, while the Poker Run
begins and ends there.
One hundred percent of
the proceeds will benefit
the MCCI’s gas voucher
program. Morris welcomes all donations,
which are tax deductible.
Donors who give money,
services, or products
worth at least $150 are
considered sponsors, and
will be acknowledged as
such with a plaque and
their name on a sponsors’ banner at the event.
Anyone wishing to
make a donation may
contact Lee Morris at
740-742-0809 or via
Facebook through the
poker run’s Facebook
page at https://www.facebook.com/annmorriscancerawarenesspokerrun/.
Additionally, they may
made donations at any
City National Bank or
Farmers Bank location
under MCCI Poker Run.

PVH honors employees of the month
POINT PLEASANT,
W.Va. — Brittany Hollingshead and Jodie
Saunders have been
named as Pleasant Valley
Hospital Employees of
the Month for December
2016 and January, respectively.
PVH announced
the Customer Service
Employee of the Month
for December 2016 as
Hollingshead, a radiology
receptionist. She began
her career at PVH in July
2006.
The Employee of the
Month at Pleasant Valley Hospital takes extra
steps to provide excellent
customer service like
Hollingshead’s friendli-
ness and eagerness to
help staff members and
patients at PVH.
She was nominated
because she always greets
everyone with a smile.
Her outstanding personality is heard through
her phone conversations,
according to PVH. Many
offices request to speak
with her due to her positive attitude. She is not
only helpful to patients
and other hospital staff,
but she is always willing
to lend a hand to the rest
of the department when
they need it. She goes
above and beyond her job
duties.
Hollingshead lives in
Point Pleasant, W.Va.,
with her sons Charles, 8,
Shawn, 7, and Blessed, 6.
PVH also announced
the Customer Service
Employee of the Month
for January as Jodie
Saunders. Saunders is
an LPN at the Pleasant
Valley Nursing and Rehabilitation Center who
began her career at PVH
in March of 2002.
She was recently nominated after noticing an
alarming change in a
resident during her normal routine. When she
realized the resident was
having difficulty breathing, Saunders quickly got
a breathing treatment set
up for her. From there,
she continually checked

on this resident, and took
the time to sit and talk
with the resident to make
sure that she was breathing better.
Saunders lives in
Patriot, Ohio. She has
a daughter, Lauren, 22,
son, Michael Todd, 16,
and grandson Jaxson.
She is currently attending the University of

Year award with a chance
for $250.

THEIR VIEW
Democrats following
GOP playbook on
high court nominee
opposition
By Albert R. Hunt
Contributing columnist
Democrats will probably overwhelmingly
oppose President Donald Trump’s nomination of
conservative jurist Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme
Court. That’s a reflection of the party’s growing
conviction that all-out opposition to the Republican agenda is a winning political strategy.
Their role model is Republican Senate leader
Mitch McConnell, who for eight years had one
objective: thwart President Barack Obama at
every turn. That strategy culminated with the
decision last year to reject the Supreme Court
nomination of U.S. Appeals Court Judge Merrick
Garland without even giving him a hearing.
Politics more than merit will dominate the
debate over Judge Gorsuch. It started almost
immediately after Trump’s Tuesday night
announcement when Sen. Elizabeth Warren of
Massachusetts, a former Harvard Law School professor, lashed out at the Gorsuch record and said
she’d oppose him.
The early odds are that Republicans won’t be
able to get enough Democratic allies to gather the
60 votes required to break a filibuster against the
Gorsuch appointment. That means it’s likely that
McConnell will change the rules to allow confirmation by a simple Senate majority. Republicans
outnumber Democrats in the Senate, 52 to 48.
Just two weeks into the Trump administration,
congressional Democrats are concluding that
Trump has decided to be a polarizing president,
playing to the passionate support of the minority of voters who put him in the White House
in November and content to antagonize most of
the others. That means Democratic activists and
donors will insist on fighting Trump at nearly
every turn, starting with the Supreme Court nomination.
Already this has created some silly moments.
Democrats refused to attend some confirmation
hearings to spite the Republican majority and
Trump nominees. And the party’s left wing had
made unreasonable demands, criticizing Warren,
for example, for voting to confirm Ben Carson as
secretary of Housing and Urban Development.
Carson, a brilliant retired pediatric neurosurgeon,
has few qualifications for the housing job, but it
isn’t a sensitive post. Given Warren’s credentials
as a fighting liberal, only the loony left would
accuse her of being a sellout.
Moreover, there may be few issues where Democrats find it in their interest to seek common
ground with Republicans. A big infrastructure
spending plan could produce a rare bipartisan
consensus.
Trump seems incapable of changing his confrontational, insult-driven style, which Democrats
believe will prevent him from improving his mediocre poll ratings or widening his political appeal.
He lacks the personal charm or magnetism that
has enabled some presidents, notably Ronald Reagan, to exert influence when taking controversial
positions.
Many of Trump’s campaign promises, like huge
tax cuts tilted to the wealthy accompanied by
reductions in domestic spending for the poor, will
be easy for most Democrats to oppose.
Most, perhaps all, of Trump’s cabinet nominees
will be confirmed, though a few, including education secretary-designate Betsy DeVos, are raising
hackles even with some Republicans. It takes a
simple majority to approve these nominees, meaning Democrats would have to pick up three Republican votes to block an appointment.
Most legislation would be easier for Democrats
to block because it remains subject to the 60-vote
filibuster rule. Some Democrats face tough reelection fights in 2018 in Republican-dominated
states, so they might be tempted to go along with
Trump on some matters.
Gorsuch is widely admired for his intellect
among conservative judicial experts, and there’s
no doubt he is well qualified. But Democrats will
counter that Garland was equally distinguished
and are likely to dig into the Gorsuch record to
make his confirmation process as contentious as
they can.
If Gorsuch, a former clerk to Justice Anthony
Kennedy, is eventually approved, it won’t much
change the ideological composition of the court
since he would replace the conservative Antonin Scalia, who died almost a year ago. But
Democrats, even before the appointment was
announced, figured the departure of aging justices
could create several more Supreme Court vacancies in the next three or four years. So they want
to make an all-out effort this time.
There is almost no example of a senator, Republican or Democrat, who has suffered politically in
recent years for opposing a court nominee. And
McConnell’s strategy resulted in steady Republican gains over eight years, including taking control of the Senate and White House.

THEIR VIEW
As immigrant, I support moves to keep USA safe
By Tom Nowak
Contributing columnist
In November 1985 I
arrived in New York as
a refugee. My family’s
refugee status and permission to come to the
U.S. had been denied
once before. I missed seeing the Statute of Liberty
out of my plane window
because it was night time
and I was 6 years old and
not sure what to look for.
But we were stopped
on our way to Dallas.
We spent the better part
of the next day proving
that our paperwork and
affairs were in order,
including getting another
round of shots, before
we were allowed to go
on to Texas. I met my
father for the first time
that night. From that
time, until I was in college, I was a permanent
resident.
However slim, there
was always a chance
that if I left the country,
I would not be allowed
back in, if things in
the world changed; we
always knew of the risk
but didn’t think it important enough at the time.
I didn’t get around
to becoming a citizen
as a teenager because I
was more interested in
football and girls than
standing in line at the
INS offices. It was time
to become a citizen when
I knew my future career
was in the law. Citizenship was my first oath to
defend the Constitution.
I became a lawyer with
the second oath. A prosecutor with the third. And
when I joined the Air
Force, the fourth. When I
was promoted, the fifth.
I have seen people
denied visas of all types
based on silly things
and bad employees of
the State Department. I
have had to wait while
my bags were searched
when coming home as
though I was a threat or
a smuggler. I know of
friends and family who
have been denied admittance. And yes, I know
of permanent residents
who were turned away
before stepping on U.S.
soil due to bureaucratic
screw-ups.
Is it hard sometimes to
be from somewhere else?
Nope. I’m happy to be
different. What’s more,
I’m willing to subject
“Protesting today is on par with the
mannequin challenge, a social media version
to see who’s cool. The fact that you are
outraged that someone campaigned, won and
is following through on the things promised
to his electorate is humorous and sad at the
same time.”
myself to all these tests
and reaffirm my oaths to
protect this country, my
home.
The recent uninformed
outrage is merely a
byproduct of sour grapes.
The people complaining
today have been silent
through decades and
even centuries about
these types of actions
taking place every day,
but they suddenly find
their voice in 2017.
People are denied entry
every day for a host of
reasons, and now, when
the reason is to protect
us, you want to complain.
Protesting today is on
par with the mannequin
challenge, a social media
version to see who’s cool.
The fact that you are
outraged that someone
campaigned, won and is
following through on the
things promised to his
electorate is humorous
and sad at the same time.
The fact that our government wants to take
a few months to come
up with a better way to
make sure the people
coming here love our
country as much as I do
is fine by me. If it causes
some discomfort for
those wishing to join us,
then so be it.
Our country is worth
protecting. Good for
President Donald Trump
for believing in his oath
as much as I do.
I truly pray God blesses all Americans tonight,
even more than he
already has, and may God
bless those that will soon
be joining us as Americans on their journey.

TODAY IN HISTORY
Today is Thursday,
Feb. 2, the 33rd day of
2017. There are 332 days
left in the year. This is
Groundhog Day.
Today’s Highlight in
History:
On Feb. 2, 1887, Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania,
held its first Groundhog
Day festival.
On this date:
In 1653, New Amsterdam — now New York
City — was incorporated.
In 1848, the Treaty of
Guadalupe Hidalgo, ending the Mexican-American War, was signed.
In 1914, Charles Chaplin made his movie debut
as the comedy short
“Making a Living” was
released by Keystone
Film Co. The musical
“Shameen Dhu,” featuring the song “Too Ra Loo
Ra Loo Ral,” opened on
Broadway.
In 1925, the legendary
Alaska Serum Run ended
as the last of a series of
dog mushers brought
a life-saving treatment
to Nome, the scene of a
diphtheria epidemic, six
days after the drug left
Nenana.
In 1932, Duke Elling-
ton and His Orchestra
recorded “It Don’t Mean
a Thing (If It Ain’t Got
That Swing)” for Brunswick Records.
In 1942, a Los Angeles
Times column by W.H.
Anderson urged security
measures against Japanese-Americans, arguing
that a Japanese-American
“almost inevitably …
grows up to be a Japanese, not an American.”
In 1959, public schools
in Arlington and Norfolk,
Virginia, were racially
desegregated without
incident.
In 1964, Ranger 6, a
lunar probe launched
by NASA, crashed onto
the surface of the moon
as planned, but failed
to send back any TV
images.
In 1971, Idi Amin,
having seized power in
Uganda, proclaimed himself president.
In 1980, NBC News
reported the FBI had
conducted a sting operation targeting members
of Congress using phony
Arab businessmen in
what became known as
“Abscam,” a codename
protested by Arab-Americans.
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
“Absence is to love what wind is to fire; it
extinguishes the small, it inflames the great.”
— Bussy-Rabutin,
French soldier and writer (1618-1693)
In 1990, in a dramatic
concession to South
Africa’s black majority,
President F.W. de Klerk
lifted a ban on the African National Congress
and promised to free Nelson Mandela.
In 1992, longtime
“Miss America” emcee
Bert Parks died in La
Jolla (HOY’-uh), California, at age 77.
Ten years ago: Tornadoes killed 21 people in
central Florida. A grim
report from the world’s
leading climate scientists
and government officials
said that global warming
was so severe, it would
“continue for centuries”
and that humans were
to blame. Texas Gov.
Rick Perry issued an
order making Texas the
first state to require that
schoolgirls get vaccinated
against HPV, a sexually
transmitted virus that
causes cervical cancer.
Five years ago: Egyp-
tian security forces
clashed with stone-throwing protesters enraged
by the failure of police to
prevent a soccer riot the
night before that killed
74 people. Donald Trump
announced his endorsement of Republican Mitt
Romney for president,
saying the former Massachusetts governor was
“not going to allow bad
things to continue to happen to this country we all
love.”
One year ago: Health
officials reported that
a person in Texas had
become infected with the
Zika (ZEE’-kuh) virus
through sex in the first
case of the illness being
transmitted within the
United States. A suicide
bomber detonated an
explosive aboard a Somali Airbus, forcing it to
make an emergency landing at Mogadishu’s international airport; only the
bomber was killed.

and operating, of a new
Meigs County Sheriff’s
Office and Correctional
Facility. The levy would
also cover site work and
demolition of the old Veterans Memorial Hospital,
where the new facility
would be located should
it be approved by voters.
With the deadline to
file for the May election having passed on
Wednesday at 4 p.m., the
levy (if approved) will
be the only thing on the
ballot for much of the
county. Given that, the
election will be considered a special election.
While there are no
partisan races on the ballot in May, there will be
non-partisan trustee and
village positions on the
November ballot.
The only other thing
that would be on the ballot in May is in Columbia
Twp. where voters in
Alexander Local School
District will again be
asked to consider an
income tax levy.
When a special election is held with only one
thing on the ballot, the
agency placing the action
on the ballot must pay
the cost of the election,
which is estimated to be
approximately $50,000.
Ihle stated that the
county had budgeted for
two elections when planning budgets for 2017 as
there are typically two
elections per year. He
said that action would
need to be taken in the
future to appropriate
money to the sheriff’s
office budget for the
election costs, but that
ultimately the county had
already budgeted for the
cost of a May election in
2017.
show about tattoo art.
During this first season
of “Engaged In Ink,”
Rogers, wanted to keep
the settings and the
show to local culture in
Canada but as the second season approached,
Graham posed the idea
of expanding outside of
their local area in Canada. Graham wanted the
show to be more focused
on the sociology and
culture associated with
tattooing.
“If we are going to
do this show,” Graham
said, “I think it should be
educational. Let’s teach
with what we are doing.
There’s so many aspects
about tattoo culture all
around the world and we
want to showcase this.”
Each episode looks at
a different aspect of tattooing. For example, one
episode might correlate
rock & roll with tattooing and how there is a
history of tattooing.
Graham said, “One of
my favorite topics with
tattooing is the medical
application of tattooing. We went into a
cancer clinic to see how
radiologists tattoo their
patients. Many people do
think about the medical
field and what they do in
regards to tattooing.”
“Engaged In Ink” also
did an episode on how
horror films influence
tattoo art, Elvira was
a special guest on that
episode. On an episode,
which was about modeling and tattooing, Super
model Anitia Norris was
on the show, according
to Graham, talking about
the culture of tattooing in
the modeling industry.
“Typically, modeling
agencies frown upon tattoos, but there is an alternative modeling scene

Graham said, “Many
people don’t understand
the various tools used
in tattooing. Because
this supply company is
here and they are actual
tattoo machine builders, they were able to
show us the different
variations of tools and
the specifics behind the
machines. Any museum
or any anthropologist
has an obligation to show
the ethnology of culture,
not just historically but
contemporary culture
and that is what we, at
‘Engaged In Ink,’ want to
showcase on our show.

“Engaged In Ink” traveled to several difference
places before traveling to
the Ohio Valley to piece
together information
regarding the history of
tattooing.
“One interesting thing
we got to learn about was
Otzi the Iceman,” said
Graham.
Otzi is an mummified
“Iceman” that is over
5,300 years old that has
61 tattoos. Recently,
scientists have mapped
the body art of this Otzi
to better understand the
roles tattoos played in
early civilizations.
According to Graham,
Ohio had the first tattoo
club in the United States,
located in Sandusky.
“You guys are an
important part of tattoo
history,” Graham said.
“So we came down to
understand and get a little piece of that history.”

Lady Defenders sweep WCC, 29-13

Ohio Valley Christian senior Rachel Sargent (21) dribbles past a pair of Wood
County Christian defenders during the second half of Tuesday night’s nonconference girls basketball contest in Gallipolis, Ohio.
GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — A
little rusty, but it still ran great
once it warmed up.
The Ohio Valley Christian
girls basketball team snapped
a four-game losing skid and
picked up its first victory of the
new year Tuesday night with
a 29-13 decision over visiting
Wood County Christian in a
non-conference contest in the
Old French City.
The host Lady Defenders
(4-8) trailed 6-0 after eight
minutes of play and finally
reached the scoring column
when Rachel Sargent hit a
single free throw with 6:02 left
in the half, but Sarah Barnes
answered with a trifecta at the
1:57 mark that gave the Lady
Wildcats (4-13) their largest
lead of the night at 9-1.
Barnes’ bucket not only
proved to be the final points for
WCCS in the second canto, but
the Purple and Gold were also
held scoreless over the next
12:17 of play — and OVCS
took full advantage of that
golden opportunity.
The Blue and White closed
the final 1:38 of the second
stanza with six consecutive
points, with Kristen Durst capping the run with a basket just
before the buzzer for a 9-7 halftime deficit.
Both teams went scoreless
for the opening five minutes of
the third quarter, but the Lady
Defenders finally tied things up
at nine following a pair of successful technical foul free throw
attempts by Emily Childers
with three minutes left.
Sargent followed with a basket 10 seconds later for the first
OVCS lead of the night at 11-9.
The hosts went on to score
another nine points over the
final two minutes en route to a
commanding 20-9 edge headed
into the finale.
Abby Banser ended Wood
County Christian’s scoreless
drought with a free throw at
the 5:39 mark for a 22-10 deficit and were never closer than
22-11 six seconds later.

ROCKSPRINGS, Ohio — Just four solid quarters of basketball.
The Athens boys basketball team outscored TriValley Conference Ohio Division host Meigs in
every quarter, on Tuesday night inside Larry R.
Morrison Gymnasium, as the Bulldogs claimed a

Meigs (10-7, 5-2 TVC Ohio) — which hadn’t
lost at home since December 9 — trailed 15-to-13
by the end of the opening stanza. The Bulldogs
(9-6, 6-2) outscored the Marauders by a 20-to-15
clip in the second quarter, pushing the AHS lead
to 35-28 by halftime.
Athens outscored MHS 22-to-19 in the third
quarter and 18-to-16 in the fourth, sealing the
75-63 win, and ending the Marauders’ winning
streak at two games.

headed into the finale.
The Golden Eagles
surged for 17 points
over the final eight

Hazardous weather

percent from the field
while claiming a season
sweep of visiting Athens
on Tuesday night following a 60-38 decision in
a Tri-Valley Conference
Ohio Division matchup at
Larry R. Morrison Gymnasium in Meigs County.
The Lady Marauders

The Lady Bulldogs
(4-15, 2-8) were never
closer as the Maroon and
Gold made a 16-8 second

Hannan rolls Crusaders, 107-64
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@civitasmedia.com
GILBERT, W.Va. — Talk about an
offensive showcase.
The Hannan boys basketball team
scored at least 23 points in every quarter on Tuesday night in Mingo County,
as the Wildcats stormed to a 107-64
over hosting Jammie Darrin Christian
Academy.
Hannan (5-9) — which had all 10
players reach the scoring column —
bolted out to a 26-14 lead, eight minutes into play. The Wildcats outscored
the Crusaders 33-to-15 in the second
quarter, giving the guests a 59-29 lead
at the break.
The Wildcats pushed their lead to
84-50 by the end of the third quarter,
and HHS capped off the 107-64 victory
with a 23-to-14 run in the fourth period.
“All players scored and contributed
in a big way, as the Hannan turn around
continues to make strides,” HHS head
coach Ross Thornton said. “We still
have a lot of work to do, but piece by
piece we are becoming what we envisioned when I took the reigns four years
ago. We are building a high-tempo, up
and down the court attack, centered
around hard work and unity. We have
to keep working so we can compete
against the best.”
The 107-point performance by the
Wildcats is believed to be a HHS single
game record, surpassing the previous
mark of 103.
For the game, Hannan made 39 field
goals, including 18 three-pointers. The
Wildcats were 11-of-20 from the free
throw line, equaling 55 percent.
The Wildcats were led by junior Malachi Cade with 34 points, on six twopointers, six three-pointers and four
free throws. Next for HHS was senior
Corey Hudnall with 27 points, on seven
trifectas, one deuce and a quartet of
free throws. Both Cade and Hudnall
achieved career-highs with their respective offensive outputs.

Hannan sophomore Dalton Colman
poured in 20 points for the victors,
while Logan Nibert scored seven.
Justis Powers-Cupp scored five points
for HHS, Josh McCoy chipped in with
four points, while Luke Tilka and Chandler Starkey both added three points.
Rounding out the Wildcat scoring were
Matthew Qualls and Andrew Gillispie
with two points apiece.
Jammie Darrin Christian was led by
Matthew Dotson with 25 points and
Justin Grimmett with 21, followed by
Jake Nagy with 15 points and Micah
Hawks with three points. The Crusad-
ers sank 15 two-pointers, nine threepointers and 7-of-16 (43.8 percent) free
throws.
Hannan also defeated JDCA on
December 13, by a 93-63 final, in Ashton.
The Wildcats have now reached
triple-digits twice this year, as they
defeated Elk Valley Christian 100-52 in
their last win.

Spartans stymie River Valley, 45-32

regulation.
The Raiders ended the
game on a 14-to-8 run, but
it was too little, too late, as
the Spartans claimed the
45-32 victory.
“We cut it to 11, early
in the second half, but I
made another defensive
change and they went out
and scored on that as well,”
Coach Drummond said.
“Again, that’s probably my
fault, I probably should have
gotten out of our 1-3-1 and
gotten back into man, or
23-matchup, or something
like that. We missed some
shots we should have made,
don’t get me wrong, but I
have to get them in places
to succeed a little more.”
The Raiders had won
back-to-back home games
prior to Tuesday ,while the
Spartans have now won
four straight road contests.
Alexander won the
rebounding battle by a
34-27 count, including
12-to-9 on the offensive
glass. River Valley committed 15 turnovers in the
setback, one more than
AHS. RVHS finished with
a 10-to-5 steals advantage,
while the Spartans held a
13-to-6 edge in assists.
For the game, River Valley shot 13-of-45 (28.9 percent) from the field, including 2-of-16 (12.5 percent)
from three-point range.
Meanwhile, Alexander was
16-of-49 (32.7 percent)
from the field, including
5-of-13 (38.5 percent) from
deep. RVHS made 4-of-10
(40 percent) free throw
attempts, while AHS went
8-of-11 (72.7 percent) from
the stripe.
The Raiders were led by
junior Dustin Barber with
eight points, followed by
Jarret McCarley and Jacob
Dovenbarger with seven
points each. Dovenbarger
pulled in a game-best 12
rebounds, dished out a
team-best two assists and
came up with the only three
rejections in the game,
while McCarley recorded a
team-high three steals.
Tre Craycraft scored five
points for RVHS, while
Layne Fitch added three
and Ian Polcyn chipped in
with two.
Chace Harris led AHS
with a double-double
effort of 16 points and 10
rebounds. Ryan Davidson
