Akron cites savings as massive Antioch Writers’ Workshop partners with University of Dayton sewer project proceeds DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — Ofﬁcials say the Antioch Writers’ Workshop has dissolved its partnership with Antioch University Midwest in favor of an afﬁliation with the University of Dayton beginning next month. The organization, which was founded in 1986, will be renamed the Antioch Writers’ Workshop at the University of Dayton and will maintain its independent nonproﬁt status. The workshop will relocate to UD’s English department after being formally aligned with Antioch University Midwest from 2009 to 2016. The organization offers creative writing workshops, seminars and retreats year-round to poetry, ﬁction and nonﬁction writers from across the country. Kate Geiselman, the group’s acting president, says the organization’s board agreed that it should explore a partnership with UD, which is host of the nationally celebrated Erma Bombeck Writer’s Workshop. AKRON, Ohio (AP) — Ofﬁcials say a $1.1 billion Akron water and sewer project is under budget as work that includes a massive underground tunnel continues. The Akron Beacon Journal reports (http://bit. ly/2jP3A2J ) a drill will begin cutting a 27-foot circle this July for a tunnel just over a mile long. The tunnel is a major component of the northeastern Ohio city’s project meant to limit overﬂows into local waterways. The cost is about $300 million below original estimates. Engineers say none of the city’s estimated annual 742 million gallons of wastewater-rain mix will touch the Little Cuyahoga (ky-uh-HOH’-guh) River by the project’s court-ordered completion in 2028. The project will combine the new tunnel and other smaller tunnels with green components such as porous asphalt and wetlands. Credit card skimming a growing problem in Butler County Man dies after being hit by train in Columbus HAMILTON, Ohio (AP) — Police in a southwest Ohio county where gas stations have been hit repeatedly by card-skimming devices are getting more training to combat the growing crime. The Hamilton-Middletown Journal-News reports (http://bit.ly/2kT1Hz3 ) the Butler County Prosecutor’s Ofﬁce has joined with the county auditor’s ofﬁce in offering additional training so police can more easily identify illegal skimmer devices. Police say nearly a dozen skimmers have been found at various gas stations throughout the county since November 2015. The small device stores sensitive cardholder data when motorists use their credit cards to pay at the pump. A new training video, which cost $1,500 to produce, informs police on how to check for tampering at gas pumps. County Prosecutor Michael Gmoser encourages ofﬁcers to stop at gas stations as part of their routine patrols. COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A man is dead after he was hit by a train in Columbus. Ofﬁcials say the man was hit near the Greater Columbus Convention Center around 3:00 a.m. Sunday. Police say he was pronounced dead around 3:30 a.m. Ofﬁcials say witnesses reported they saw the man lying on the train tracks. Police have not identiﬁed the victim. There is an ongoing investigation.

A gallon of regular fuel in Ohio was averaging $2.12 in Monday’s survey from auto club AAA, the Oil Price Information Service and WEX Inc. That’s a nickel more than last week and much higher than at this time last year, when the state average was just $1.55. Ohio’s average remains below the national average, which was $2.28 for regular fuel on Monday, up a penny from a week earlier. A year ago, it was $1.70. �E ditorial 4A Tuesday, February 14, 2017 Daily Sentinel THEIR VIEW White House visits no longer what they were By Mitch Albom Contributing columnist Maybe it’s time to stop inviting sports teams to the White House. It’s not a mandate. It’s not a law. And when the mere idea of it launches a slew of political statements, it sure doesn’t sound like an honor. The New England Patriots, fresh off a Super Bowl win, spent last week partying, parading — and announcing how certain members will not be going to the White House to be congratulated. “I don’t feel accepted in the White House,” safety Devin McCourty texted to Time. “I don’t feel welcome in that house,” running back LeGarrette Blount told NFL host Rich Eisen. Four other Patriots — as of this writing — said they would not attend. One of them, Dont’a Hightower, who visited when he was a college player, told ESPN: “Been there, done that.” Now, I don’t know about you, but if I’m throwing a dinner party and a chunk of my guests make a point of telling people why they’re not coming, maybe the dinner party isn’t such a great idea. Yes, the tradition of teams visiting the White House dates back to 1865, when Andrew Johnson invited the Brooklyn Atlantics and Washington Nationals. But it was an on-off thing for more than a century, until Ronald Reagan in the 1980s began inviting everybody. After that, teams from football to hockey to women’s soccer seemed to enjoy the tradition. Photos were taken. A jersey with the president’s name was handed over. Most Americans said, “That’s nice,” and went about their business. ——— But these days, few people just go about their business. Not when a statement can be made. So even though a dated invitation has yet to be made, some Patriots felt compelled to tell their fans how repugnant the idea was to them. It is surely their right to do so as Americans. It is also rude. No one is asking them to endorse a candidate. And taking a photo with your nation’s elected leader doesn’t mean you surrender your right to disagree with every single thing he does. That’s the beauty of America. In fact, the visit may give you a rare chance to express your views to the leader himself. How many photos or congratulations have those players accepted from corporations that exploit workers, CEOs who practice unfair hiring practices, TV hosts who they privately don’t like, etc.? All NFL teams have mandatory events, from charity to corpo- “But we live in a world where declaring is easier than doing, and Twitter posts pass for social action.” rate, where no excuses for absence are accepted. It’s not like players don’t have to bite their tongue sometimes. Besides, since most presidential elections are about 50-50, I’m guessing half the athletes who have visited the White House over the years didn’t vote for the man occupying it. So what? You can respect the ofﬁce. The tradition. The reverence of our ﬂawed but still-beautiful democratic system. But we live in a world where declaring is easier than doing, and Twitter posts pass for social action. So turning down an invitation — by tweeting or doing an interview — gets you celebrated. You don’t need to actually do anything to make the country better. You don’t even need to leave the couch. ——— Now, to be sure, players have missed these photo-ops before. Tom Brady, for one, missed the last Patriots visit in 2015, citing a previous commitment. Tim Thomas, a goalie with the Boston Bruins, opted out in 2011 because he felt the government was out of control. Matt Birk, of the Baltimore Ravens, a practicing Catholic, skipped a 2013 visit because he disagreed with President Barack Obama’s endorsement of Planned Parenthood. But even Birk back then said, “I have great respect for the ofﬁce of the presidency.” These days, that doesn’t seem to matter. I know readers who hate President Donald Trump will scream that if he doesn’t respect the ofﬁce, why should the athletes? And since only the present seems to matter anymore, we’ll forget that previous presidents, from both parties, have done awful things while serving in the White House — and had their pictures taken with all kinds of cultural heroes. Which is why perhaps it’s better to drop this tradition altogether. Let’s face it: Presidents mostly use it to boost their popularity. Teams use it to boost their legacy. It started as a nicety, but playing nice is not very fashionable these days. Besides, if you were sitting in the White House and enough players were publicly telling you to stuff your invitation, you might end up saying, “What invitation?” Given the country today, don’t be surprised if that happens.

It looked sloppy; so, I returned it. This Valentine’s Day, I ﬁnd myself wondering what the return policy is on love. Can love once given simply be recalled by the giver? If so, what’s an acceptable time frame in which to permit the return or are we obligated to allow an inﬁnite deadline to those wanting reimbursed for a former love commitment? Maybe there shouldn’t be and can’t be a guideline for accepting that someone who once loved us no longer extends that love to us either because they died or just vanished from our lives one mile at a time. A love refund of this magnitude could bankrupt one’s soul. The restocking fee may be too great—the current market value of a healthy heart, bursting with love each beat, must be priceless. I’d have paid a million dollars to have replaced grandpa’s. I wonder if he could’ve survived with a refurbished heart beating inside of him? I wish he’d been given that chance. I wish all the love that’s pulsed through my heart since its ﬁrst beat, would’ve come with a warranty, too. Life happens. Hearts break. Hearts stop beating. We can’t force someone to accept our love, nor can we refuse a refund when they reject it. We can close our customer service counter and turn off the lights, but the inevitable transaction will happen with or without a receipt. Love is energy and there’s no paper trail for that. Sometimes there’s only a trail of tears leading to the alter inside of ourselves—the one that heals all wounds, binds each broken wishbone. Sometimes the only way to revive a rejected, broken heart is to let love ﬂow from the divine repair shop in the sky where all love is reciprocated and let it nourish us—one heartbeat at a time.

The Ohio Department of Health says more than 2,000 people have been hospitalized with ﬂu-related illnesses this ﬂu season, which usually last from October to May. The agency is urging Ohioans who haven’t received the ﬂu vaccine to do so. “Inﬂuenza vaccination is the safest and most effective way to prevent the ﬂu, except for infants younger than 6-month old who aren’t eligible to receive it,” said Sietske de Fijter, chief of the Bureau of Infectious Diseases and state epidemiologist for the Ohio Department of Health (ODH). “There are no ﬂu vaccine shortages across Ohio and it is available at most healthcare providers’ ofﬁces, local health departments and retail pharmacies.” Flu season in Ohio generally lasts from October to May, and peaks around this time of year. The 2015-16 ﬂu season a year ago did not peak until early March. With ﬂu season in full swing in Meigs County and around the region and state, the ﬂu shot remains the primary route of prevention. Shot clinic is held every Tuesday from 9-11 a.m. and 1-3 p.m.; others are given by appointment. Residents may call the health department to screen for coverage with their medical coverage. “Hand washing is of utmost importance. Use hand sanitizer if hand washing is not available at any given time. Other preventive measures include keeping your hands away from your face, sneezing/coughing into your elbow and staying home when you do not feel well, especially if you have a fever,” stated Cunningham. “It is important to be diagnosed within the ﬁrst 3 days of illness so that Tamiﬂu may be given,” stated Cunningham. unaware of the sale.

Meanwhile, they didn’t let the other Bulldogs get loose either —and enjoyed a parade to the free-throw line down the stretch. In capturing an important Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division boys basketball victory on Saturday night, visiting Meigs defeated Athens 60-49 inside McAfee Gymnasium in The Plains. The contest was a makeup matchup from Jan. 6, when it was postponed due to inclement weather. Meigs made the most of the return match, gaining a season split —after Athens won the initial meeting, 75-63. The Marauders outscored the Bulldogs 16-13 in the opening quarter, then took the second stanza 11-9 to lead 27-22 at halftime. The biggest gap, however, came in the third frame — when Meigs made its move with a 13-7 output and extended its advantage to double ﬁgures (40-29). Over the middle two quarters, the Marauders made off with a 24-16 cushion.

Southern, GAHS, Meigs all need 1 win to advance to districts By Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com The high school postseason is just around the corner, but the area roads for the state tournament were paved Sunday afternoon during the 2017 OHSAA Southeast District boys basketball tournament selection meeting. Six area schools — Gallia Academy, Meigs, River Valley, Southern, South Gallia and Eastern — now know where their opening games will be and who they will be facing in their respective sectional matchups. Half of the six local teams need a single win to advance to the district tournament, while the other three squads are searching for at two victories to get out of their respective sectionals. Starting in Division IV, Southern (9-9) came away with the Ohio Valley Publishing area’s highest overall seed.

Cats sweep Covenant By Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com Bryan Walters/OVP Sports Hannan senior Corey Hudnall (21) lays in two of his career high 39 points in front of a pair of Covenant defenders Friday night during the second half of a 76-54 win over Covenant Christian in a Senior Night boys basketball contest in Ashton, W.Va. ASHTON, W.Va. — A night for both to remember, but one came away with a much bigger memory. The Hannan boys basketball team sent Corey Hudnall and Josh McCoy out in style on Senior Night, but Hudnall helped the cause with a career-high 39 points Friday during a 76-54 victory over Covenant Christian in a non-conference matchup in Mason County. The Wildcats (6-10) led all but 1:49 of the 32-minute affair as the hosts jumped out to a 10-5 edge midway through the ﬁrst period and ultimately never looked back. Hudnall — who scored at least six points in each quarter — netted 10 points in the opening frame as HHS secured a 19-9 advantage after eight minutes of play. The Blue and White kept that momentum moving forward as the hosts made a 16-9 surge over the opening four-plus minutes of the second frame, which resulted in the Cats’ largest lead of the ﬁrst half at 35-18 with 3:25 left. The Eagles (6-13), however, ended the ﬁrst half with a 6-2 spurt that resulted in a 37-24 deﬁcit at the break. The Wildcats shot 52 percent in the second half and led by at least double digits the rest of the way, with the lead growing to as many as 24 points (75-51) with less than a minute left in regulation. Hudnall scored 11 points in the third quarter as part of a 22-15 surge for a 59-39 edge, then the senior lefty netted a dozen points during a 17-15 run to close out the game. Hudnall made ﬁve trifectas and 12 total ﬁeld goals while also netting 10-of-15 free throw attempts during his career-high effort. McCoy also had a single ﬁeld goal and four rebounds in his Senior Night contest, with Hudnall also hauling in seven caroms.

(AP) — Jevon Carter was pretty excited to exact revenge against Kansas State. “Revenge was a factor,” he said. “That’s what the Big 12’s all about. You get to play everybody twice. If you lose, you get a chance at redemption.” His 19 points and nine rebounds led No. 13 West Virginia in a foul-plagued 85-66 victory over the Wildcats on Saturday.

West Virginia capitalized and held a 13-point lead mid- way through the second half. Kansas State never recovered. Fouls dominated the game, as 54 were called throughout the game although no player fouled out. “The reason ofﬁcials don’t come in and do a press conference like the coaches do is because they are independent contractors,” West Virginia head coach Bob Huggins said. “I think it would be a great move on the NCAA’s part to bring them in house.” Nathan Adrian added 11 points for West Virginia and Bolden ﬁnished with nine.

The Gallia Academy wrestling team won 12 of the 14 weight classes, as the Blue Devils won the Ohio Valley Conference championship, on Friday in Lawrence County. Gallia Academy swept both Ironton and Chesapeake, winning by identical counts of 84-0. The Blue Devils defeated Fairland — which ﬁnished second in the fourteam conference meet — by a 72-12 count. “We had people wrestle their bests of the year,” GAHS head coach Todd May said. “That’s what made it so onesided.” Four Gallia Academy seniors won individual championships, with Hunter Jacks claiming the 182 crown, Chris Matthew winning 170 pounds, Kaleb Crisenbery taking the 152pound title and Jared Stevens topping the 126pound class.

A 16-5 third quarter surge ultimately allowed the Hannan girls basketball team to celebrate Senior Night in style on Friday following a 49-44 victory over visiting Covenant in a non-conference matchup in Mason County. The Lady Cats (3-15) snapped a season-worst eightgame losing skid as the hosts found themselves in a hole after each of the ﬁrst two periods of play. HHS trailed 7-4 after eight minutes and entered halftime down 19-15. Josie Cooper, however, scored seven points during the Blue and White’s pivotal 16-5 run out of the second half gates, which turned a slim two-possession deﬁcit into a 31-24 edge headed into the ﬁnale. Both teams combined for 44 free throw attempts down the stretch run, with the Lady Eagles (8-8) winning the ﬁnal canto by a 20-18 margin. Hannan, however, netted half of its 24 charity tosses in the fourth to wrap up the ﬁve-point triumph, while Covenant made only 7-of-20 attempts in the ﬁnal eight minutes of play. The win allowed HHS to salvage a season split with the Red and Blue after dropping a 44-36 decision at Covenant back on January 9. The Lady Cats also sent Maggie Waugh and Madison Staggs out with a victory in their ﬁnal home contest. The Lady Cats made only one of their 15 total ﬁeld goals from behind the arc and also went 18-of-39 at the charity stripe for 46 percent. Josie McCoy led the hosts with 12 points, followed by Waugh and Cooper with eight markers apiece. Julie Frazier was next with six points and Cassidy Duffer contributed ﬁve markers to the winning cause. Lindsey Holley chipped in four points, while Bailey Tolliver and Pammie Ochs rounded out the HHS tally with three points apiece. The Lady Eagles netted four of their 15 total ﬁeld goals from three-point territory and also went 10-of-29 at the charity stripe for 34 percent. Eden Bumgarner led Covenant with a game-high 15 points, followed by Grace Hagley with 11 points and Emily Hutchison with eight markers. Amanda Bailey was next with six points and Kaleigh Collins added two markers. Tori Blankenship and Kassie Venoy rounded things out with a point each.

Rio baseball drops pair to Warriors By Randy Payton For Ohio Valley Publishing BABSON PARK, Fla. — Webber International University scored in each of its six at bats, including two runs or more in ﬁve of the six frames, to post a 14-0 win and ﬁnish off a doubleheader sweep of the University of Rio Grande on Friday nigh in non-conference baseball action at Heart of Florida Field. The Warriors, who outlasted the RedStorm, 7-6 in 11 innings, in the opener, improved to 5-0 with the twinbill sweep. Rio Grande dropped to 2-4 with the two losses. WIU scored twice in the ﬁrst inning of the seveninning nightcap before adding three runs in each of the next three innings to take an 11-0 lead. The Warriors added one more marker in the ﬁfth inning and scored twice in the sixth to complete the scoring. Marcus Begg hit a pair of solo home runs to lead the home team, while Connor Clayton had two hits and two RBI. Mike Castilla added a double in the winning effort. Anthony Hunter scattered four hits over six shutout innings to earn his ﬁrst win of the year for WIU. He walked three and fanned seven. Junior Cody Blackburn had two hits, including a double, in the loss for Rio Grande. Junior Osvaldo Duran, the ﬁrst of ﬁve pitchers for the RedStorm, took the loss — his second in as many decisions. The right-hander allowed seven hits and eight runs — all earned — while walking three and striking out one over just three innings. Game one was a much more entertaining affair, with Rio Grande mounting a ninth-inning rally before the Warriors secured the victory in the 11th. Senior Daryin Lewis got Rio off to a good start with a two-run single in the second inning, but Webber International scored twice in the third inning to tie the game and then pushed across four markers in the home ﬁfth to take a 6-2 lead. Clayton and Matt Saliba had run-scoring hits in the four-run ﬁfth, while Daniel Timmons drove in another run with a ﬁelder’s choice grounder to shortstop. The lead remained intact until the top of the ninth inning when Rio erupted for four runs. Lewis singled home one run, senior Carlos Flores tripled home two more and scored the game-tying marker himself on a wild pitch. Senior Dan Crozier followed with a pinch-hit double before junior Kam Herring re-entered the game and stole third, but Herring was left stranded. The game stayed tied until Sjaghbar Martis connected on a one-out sacriﬁce ﬂy to plate the gamewinning run. Saliba and Martis tallied three hits apiece in the win for the Warriors, while Jesse Coleman allowed two hits and a walk to go along with four strikeouts in three shutout innings for the victory. Lewis went 4-for-6 and Flores ﬁnished with two hits in the loss for the RedStorm. Junior Jacob Hastings suffered the loss in relief for Rio Grande, allowing seven hits and a pair of runs over 6-1/3 innings. He walked two and struck out four. SPORTS Daily Sentinel No. 21 Maryland beats Ohio State to end skid COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) — Losing streaks don’t come often for Maryland, so the 21stranked Terrapins entered their game against Ohio State with an unyielding sense of purpose. “I knew they were dialed in and ready to play well — and we did,” coach Mark Turgeon said after Maryland led from start to ﬁnish in an 86-77 win Saturday. Anthony Cowan scored 19 points and fellow freshman Kevin Huerter added 18 for the Terrapins, who had lost backto-back games for only the second time since January 2015. After defeating Ohio State on Jan. 31, Maryland lost to Purdue and Penn State to fall from ﬁrst to third in the conference standings. “I feel like we learned from both of those games,” guard Jaylen Brantley said. “We know we lost to a great Purdue team a few weeks ago, and we couldn’t let it happen again.” The difference in this one? “Energy and preparation,” Turgeon said. “We acted and looked like a team throughout the whole game.” The victory enabled Maryland (21-4, 9-3 Big Ten) to avoid its ﬁrst three-game skid since 2012. “It was deﬁnitely a big game. We had to come back and re-focus,” Cowan said. “Hopefully this gets us back to our winning ways.” Marc Loving led the Buckeyes (15-11, 5-8) with 24 points and JaeSean Tate had 20. It was only the 10th time in 13 seasons under coach Thad Matta that Ohio State has been swept in the regular season by a Big Ten foe. The short-handed Buckeyes were without guard JaQuan Lyle (leg injury) and did not get a point from the three reserves. “We were undermanned and in foul trouble the whole game. It really made it challenging,” Matta said. “With what we had today, we did everything that we could.” The loss hindered the Buckeyes’ bid to earn a 12th straight 10-win season in the Big Ten. Ohio State must go 5-0 the rest of the way. The Buckeyes trailed by 16 in the ﬁrst half and 70-58 with 8 minutes left before cutting the gap to 77-72. Then, with the shot clock about to expire, Huerter launched a lengthy 3-pointer from the top of the key that found the bottom of the net for an 8-point cushion with 2:08 to go. Cowan clinched it with another long shot with 41 seconds remaining. “I told (Huerter), ‘Your last 3 there was an over and back.’ He was so far back when he hit it,” Matta said with a forced grin. “Those guys stepped up. We wanted to make Cowan make shots and sure enough he did, three for four from 3.” The Buckeyes closed to 56-50 with 13 minutes left on a 3-pointer by C.J. Jackson. It was 54-47 before Brantley and Cowan drained 3-pointers during a surge that upped the lead to 66-54. Ohio State rallied once more, but couldn’t complete the comeback. “I give Maryland credit,” Matta said. “They did the things they needed to do to beat us when they needed to do them.” Maryland shot 55 percent, made seven 3-pointers and committed only four turnovers in taking a 45-31 halftime lead. Minutes after the school honored former coach Lefty Driesell with a banner-raising ceremony, the Terrapins kept the feel-good spirit going by keeping the Buckeyes scoreless for the opening 4 1/2 minutes. After Ohio State closed to 16-13, Brantley scored ﬁve points in an 11-2 spurt. Not long after that, two straight dunks by Michal Cekovsky made it 40-24. BIG PICTURE Ohio State: It comes as no surprise that the Buckeyes’ ﬁrst two-game winning streak since December came to an abrupt end at the hands of a Top 25 team desperate for a victory. Maryland: Though the Terrapins appear poised to drop out of the national rankings, this decisive win should help restore the conﬁdence that accompanied the schoolrecord 20-2 start. BENCH PRESS Ohio State: The Buckeyes’ reserves totaled one shot, no assists, six rebounds and six fouls in 36 minutes. Maryland: With Brantley leading the way, Maryland’s bench had 33 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists. UP NEXT Ohio State: The Buckeyes are at Michigan State on Tuesday night, looking for a season sweep after defeating the Spartans 72-67 last month. Maryland: The Terrapins begin a two-game trip with a matchup at Northwestern on Wednesday night. Braves acquire Brandon Phillips from Reds in trade ATLANTA (AP) — The Atlanta Braves acquired threetime All-Star Brandon Phillips on Sunday from the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for two pitchers. The Braves traded away lefthander Andrew McKirahan and minor league right-hander Carlos Portuondo. Braves general manager John Coppolella called Phillips a “Gold Glove-caliber defender who will also deepen our offensive lineup.” “We are thrilled to ‘welcome home’ Brandon to Atlanta, where he will play in front of his family and friends and many of his fans,” Coppolella said. Phillips graduated from Redan High School in Stone Mountain, Georgia, in 1999, when he was drafted in the second round by the Montreal Expos. He made his debut with the Cleveland Indians in 2002. Phillips, a 35-year-old second baseman, is signed through the 2017 season. He had a full no-trade clause, having at least 10 years of playing experience including ﬁve with his current team. After being traded to the Braves, his contract reverts to a partial notrade clause, which lists 12 teams to which he cannot be traded. “It should be noted that we never included no-trade or limited-trade provisions for players such as Hall of Famers Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine and John Smoltz, as well as future Hall of Famers Chipper Jones, Fred McGriff and Andruw Jones, and we have no intention to include these provisions in the future,” Coppolella said. Phillips has a .275 batting average with 334 double and 197 home runs in his 15 seasons in the majors. He is only 137 hits shy of 2,000 for his career. McKirahan, 27, was claimed off waivers by the Braves from the Miami Marlins in 2015. He had Tommy John surgery, causing him to miss last season. Portuondo signed with the Braves as a free agent last year after eight seasons in the Cuban league with Santiago. He pitched in 17 games for Single-A Carolina and Triple-A Gwinnett. Jordan Spieth breezes to big win at Pebble Beach PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (AP) — Jordan Spieth soaked up every step of scenery on the 18th hole at Pebble Beach, one of the prettiest places in golf and even more spectacular on a Sunday when the only work left is to hoist the crystal trophy. All that was missing from the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am were the highlights. That’s just how Spieth wanted it. Staked to a six-shot lead, Spieth never gave anyone much of a chance by putting for birdie on all but one hole. The lone highlight was his 30-foot birdie putt on the 17th hole with the Paciﬁc Ocean as a backdrop, and by then it was already over. “Played a lot of boring golf today,” Spieth said, “which was exactly what we needed.” He closed with a 2-under 70 for a four-shot victory over former U.S. Amateur champion Kelly Kraft, a close friend from Dallas who couldn’t get a putt to fall that might have put a little pressure on Spieth. As easy and clinical as Spieth made it look, it was no less special. “This is a bucket-list place to win — here, Eric Risberg | AP Jordan Spieth reacts on the 18th green of the Pebble Beach Golf Links after winning the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am golf tournament Sunday in Pebble Beach, Calif. Augusta National, St. Andrews, there’s only a few in the world. It feels really special. It was amazing walking up the 18th green knowing that we were going to win. It’s just such a unique position. I tried to soak in.” It was his ﬁrst 54-hole lead on the PGA Tour since the Masters, where he lost a ﬁve-shot lead on the back nine. On this day, Spieth thought back to the 2000 U.S. Open at Pebble Beach and the way Tiger Woods closed out his record 15-shot victory by trying not to drop a shot in the ﬁnal round. Woods didn’t make a bogey over the ﬁnal 26 holes in severe conditions. On a course saturated by rain, Spieth played the ﬁnal 28 holes without a bogey. His longest par putt Sunday was 5 feet. “That’s a dream round when you’re leading by a bunch,” Spieth said. The 23-year-old Texan won for the ninth time in his PGA Tour and became the ﬁrst player since Woods with that many victories before turning 24. Woods won 15 times. Equally impressive is that Spieth won for the ﬁfth time by at least three shots. “He didn’t have his best stuff, but he did exactly what he was supposed to do and played a great round of golf,” said Brandt Snedeker, a two-time Pebble winner who played in the ﬁnal group with Spieth and shot 70 to ﬁnish fourth. “Sometimes those are the hardest rounds of golf, when you have the lead that he had. It was fun to watch him do his thing out there.” � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
