Rutherford and Becky Zurcher reported that they would like to give the MCRTA scholarship earlier this year, either in September or October. If anyone knows of a potential applicant they should contact either of them. Gay Perrin spoke about Habitat for Humanity. The speaker for the meeting was Randy Smith, Meigs County Commissioner. He talked about the importance of getting a new jail built. The present jail is around 125 years old and has limited space. Because of this it is deemed a short-term facility. Other inmates must be housed in out-of-county facilities. With transportation, housing and medications, the cost is of concern. It costs about $40,000 for housing and medical costs for inmates. With more inmates with a drug problem, the county has more needs with which to deal. Locations for the jail must be close to the courthouse. As of now, the primary location is the Veterans Memorial Hospital property. Smith also spoke about Mark Porter returning to his former location with a new dealership of Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep and Ram. The commissioners approved a lease agreement with Porter for the property. The project will bring 20 new jobs to the area. Other items mentioned were how the state budget would affect the county’s budget; County clean up day is set for May 20 at the fairgrounds; Construction on the Route 143, 7 interchange will begin at the end of July. Entertainment was provided by the Meigs High School Drama Club cast of The Little Mermaid. Amy Perrin is the drama club advisor. Door prizes were given to Connie Gilkey and Barbara Lawrence. The next meeting will be April 20 at the Wild Horse Cafe. Members are to bring in paper products and personal care items for Serenity House women’s shelter. CINCINNATI (AP) — Attorneys have asked a federal appeals court to halt the deportation of a Mexican mother of four U.S.born children. Attorneys are seeking the emergency action from the Cincinnati-based 6th U.S. Circuit Court of appeals for Maribel (MAHR’-uhbehl) Trujillo-Diaz (TROO’-hee-yoh-deeAHZ’). She is facing imminent deportation. Federal authorities contend Trujillo-Diaz entered the United States illegally in 2002 and has exhausted her appeals. The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Cincinnati has appealed for mercy, saying she has made positive contributions to her church and community. A spokeswoman for Democratic U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown of Ohio says he has urged immigration authorities to reconsider. A spokeswoman for Republican Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio says his ofﬁce is trying to help “facilitate a solution.” Virginia man dies after fall at Ohio resort SANDUSKY (AP) — Police say a Virginia man has died after falling from a balcony at an Ohio resort. The Sandusky Register reports (http://bit. ly/2on31wc ) that the 25-year-old fell Tuesday from the balcony of a third-story guest room at Kalahari Resort, a hotel and waterpark in Sandusky. A spokesman for the Erie County sheriff says the death appears to be an accident. Ofﬁcials have not identiﬁed the man but said he was visiting the resort with his family. Kalahari owns large indoor water parks in three states. The others are in Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains and Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin, where the company is headquartered. A company spokeswoman said they cooperating with investigators. She said the death was the result of “a personal and private matter” and the company would not comment further. Wednesday, April 12, 2017 3 Ohio’s new graduation requirement causes concerns COLUMBUS (AP) — The State Board of Education wants to give current high school juniors more ﬂexibility in how they can earn a diploma, amid educators’ warnings that too many of those students are at risk of not graduating next school year under Ohio’s new graduation requirements. Because the board’s authority is limited, it voted Tuesday to seek the Legislature’s permission to move ahead with such changes. The requirements outline three paths to earn a diploma: through college entrance exams, through a career-readiness evaluation and work credential, or through end-of-course exams in a points-based system. A work group that reviewed the rules has recommended adding alternatives to let students who score poorly on end-of-course exams earn a diploma by meeting other conditions, such as strong attendance, community service or career-technical training. Investigation into officer apparently kicking suspect COLUMBUS (AP) — An Ohio police chief says they will fast-track an investigation into an ofﬁcer captured on video apparently kicking a handcuffed suspect in the head. Columbus Police Chief Kim Jacobs said Tuesday that the ofﬁcer’s sergeant has been told to work only on this situation, with a report expected within two weeks. Jacobs says the video was concerning enough for police to want the case investigated promptly and thoroughly. The video taken Saturday shows an ofﬁcer restraining a man on the ground, when a second ofﬁcer arrives and appears to kick him in the head. Columbus police said the second ofﬁcer, identiﬁed as Zachary Rosen, has been reassigned to nonpatrol duty, pending the investigation. Police said Rosen self-reported the kick under standard police procedure when force is used. OHIO VALLEY HISTORY The Great Clifton Fire By Chris Rizer to Middleport for help.

Luckily, one of the oldest buildings in town was saved. The ﬂames came within feet of the Powell-Redmond house, but the Middleport Fire Company was able to protect the historic home. Quite a few local legends also came out of this disaster. One that I ﬁnd particularly interesting concerns the origins of the blaze. Many of the older locals speak of “the ﬁre that burned from Hell to Heaven.” According to the story, the ﬁre began at a bar and spread to the surrounding buildings. The last building to be consumed by the ﬂames was supposedly a church. Only recently did I discover that this referred to the 1893 Clifton Fire. Sadly, I can say that this remarkable story isn’t true. Every eyewitness report states that the ﬁre began in one of the salt furnace sheds. With the last major employer in ruins, many families chose to leave Clifton. The town temporarily rebuilt, but within 20 years, Clifton was virtually consolidated into Mason. Today, the town is mostly residential, though businesses are beginning to move in.

If that sounds familiar, it should. It’s been the normal state of affairs since 1986, when Justice Antonin Scalia joined, and on some issues all the way back to Richard Nixon’s administration. This time, of course, the conﬁguration results from the Republican Senate’s unprecedented and successful gamble to block President Barack Obama from ﬁlling Scalia’s seat. His pick, Judge Merrick Garland, would have given the liberals a clear, consistent majority for the ﬁrst time since the days of Chief Justice Earl Warren — unless and until President Donald Trump had the chance to replace one of the court’s liberals. It’s worth exploring the fascinating phenomenon of the enduring centrist court, and asking the question: Is it an accident? Or is it a feature of the Supreme Court in its current condition, when liberal and conservative justices are all activists? The court’s composition follows from a feature of constitutional design that includes some luck, namely that justices can serve for life and that the president who’s in ofﬁce gets to nominate the replacement (or used to). If the presidency changes parties with some regularity, and justices retire or die on an arbitrary schedule, that should ensure some balance. The ﬁrst condition has been fulﬁlled since the death of Franklin Roosevelt, who was elected four times and picked an astonishing nine justices if you include a chief who was already on the court. If you start with Harry Truman, the longest run of one party in the presidency has been twelve years, for two terms of Ronald Reagan and one for George H.W. Bush. Otherwise, the presidency has typically ﬂipped parties every eight years, with Jimmy Carter’s single term leading to the only shorter ﬂip. The second condition hasn’t been fulﬁlled perfectly, because some justices retire when they like the president who will replace them. But there has been surprisingly little of that strategic choice by the justices, despite the politicization of the process. Chief Justice William Rehnquist died in ofﬁce, as did Scalia. Justice Sandra Day O’Connor retired because of her husband’s failing health. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg stayed on the court past Barack Obama’s presidency despite being well into her 80s and having survived not one but two bouts with cancer. If that’s not a rejection of the strategic approach, I don’t know what is. But beyond constitutional structure, there’s another extraordinary, non-accidental fact about the centrist court: It’s been maintained in large part by individual justices’ drift to the center. The most salient example is Justice Anthony Kennedy. He’s the swing vote today, as he has been since O’Connor retired a decade ago. But for nearly 20 years before that, Kennedy wasn’t perceived as the swing voter — O’Connor was. Kennedy was considered a reliable conservative, with a few outlying liberal opinions on equality for gay people and the abortion compromise in Casey v. Planned Parenthood, in which he wrote a joint opinion with O’Connor and Justice David Souter. It’s not that Kennedy just seemed more liberal when O’Connor retired. He actually became more liberal. His liberal opinions in recent years on abortion and afﬁrmative action prove this deﬁnitively. Each represented a real shift leftward from his earlier opinions on the same subject. Kennedy’s shift had internal theoretical motivations, no doubt, grounded in the development of his jurisprudence of equal dignity. But it also resulted from the natural impulse to inﬂuence and power that comes from being the swing vote. The court’s way of setting precedent gives enormous power to the swing voter. If there’s no majority opinion, the narrowest opinion for the result that gets ﬁve votes becomes controlling precedent. Even if the swing voter joins the majority opinion and writes a separate concurrence, his or her narrow opinion has a way of becoming the majority opinion in future cases, as the other justices try to win the votes of the swing justice. O’Connor made new law in this fashion. One example is her “endorsement” theory of the establishment clause. Originally introduced in a solo concurrence in a case where she provide the ﬁfth vote, it was adopted a few years later by the majority in another case. The upshot is that the center-most justice, measured by ideology, will always have an incentive to tack toward the middle under the existing system. For the moment, that is still Kennedy. But when Kennedy is no longer in the center, some other justice may emerge to take center stage, literally. I’m not guaranteeing a centrist court forever. But if Justices Ginsburg and Stephen Breyer can hold out until a Democratic president is elected, or if a Democratic Senate denies Trump any appointments until a Democrat replaces him, we may see the centrist Supreme Court remaining into the distant future. Maybe the American people want it that way. Noah Feldman is a Bloomberg View columnist. Readers may email him at nfeldman7@bloomberg.net. THEIR VIEW United shows it considers passengers expendable By Michael Hiltzik Contributing columnist The adage about a picture being worth a thousand words never seemed as true as it did Monday when a video clip shot around the Internet showing a passenger being violently removed from a United Airlines plane in Chicago for refusing to be “voluntarily” bumped from the ﬂight. United no doubt will expend thousands of words explaining or apologizing for this incident in the coming days and weeks. It won’t help. The video is just too raw. Indeed, the airline’s initial response to the publicity has left it covered in shame. United’s PR department ﬁrst issued a statement explaining blandly that the Chicagoto-Louisville ﬂight late Sunday was overbooked, and that “after our team looked for volunteers, one customer refused to leave the aircraft voluntarily and law enforcement was asked to come to the gate. We apologize for the overbook situation. Further details on the removed customer should be directed to authorities.” United CEO Oscar Munoz then made things worse with a statement of Orwellian doublespeak. “This is an upsetting event to all of us here at United,” he said. “I apologize for having to re-accommodate these customers,” whatever that means. According to CNBC, Munoz followed up Monday evening with a letter to employees defending the airline’s ground staff and describing the passenger as “disruptive and belligerent.” He said the airline agents “were left with no choice but to call Chicago Aviation Security Ofﬁcers to assist in removing the customer from the ﬂight.” But Munoz, whose version of the episode appears to come from the playbook of how to dig oneself into an ever deeper hole, also undermined the argument that the ﬂight was overbooked. He related that “after the ﬂight was fully boarded,” gate agents “were approached by crewmembers that were told they needed to board the ﬂight.” The implication is that the crew members heading to Louisville were late in arriving, that every passenger held a paid ticket and had been properly boarded, and that only belatedly did United decide to pull passengers off the plane to make room for the crew. It’s unclear from United’s contract of carriage how either its rule regarding “refusal of transport” (Rule 21) or “denied boarding compensation” (Rule 25) applies to a passenger already seated and instructed to deplane to make room for a company employee rather than another paying passenger. Whether United had “no choice” but to forcibly eject the passenger also is questionable, as presumably the airline could have transported its crew members to Louisville either by road (a ﬁve-hour drive) or by chartering another aircraft. In any event, Munoz in his letter asserts that “treating our customers and each other with respect and dignity is at the core of who we are.” Plainly this was a botched job in countless ways and at multiple levels. Reports indicate the ﬂight was the last one to Louisville on Sunday, and that United offered passengers an $800 voucher plus overnight accommodations and an alternative ﬂight leaving Monday afternoon in order to free up four seats for a ﬂight crew needing to reach Louisville. When the voluntary offer failed, four passengers evidently were chosen at random to be involuntarily bumped. This happened after the plane had been loaded, which is certainly an unusual wrinkle in the annals of passenger treatment. One couple went quietly, but another passenger objected. Before being dragged off the plane, he reportedly identiﬁed himself as a doctor with patients to see Monday. When he refused to go, the ground staff summoned airport police, who physically manhandled him out of his seat and dragged him, bloodied, down the aisle as several other passengers documented the event on their smartphones. What sort of training United offers its personnel to manage such episodes isn’t known, but plainly it stinks. What’s even more important is what this episode says about the terms and conditions of air travel in the United States. To begin with, the law allows air carriers to overbook ﬂights — that is, sell more tickets than they have seats for. That’s plainly a situation that beneﬁts the airlines almost exclusively, because it tends to ensure that every seat will be ﬁlled even at the cost of leaving some passengers behind. How many businesses do you know of that can sell you a good or service, accept payment and then withdraw that good or service unilaterally for their own purposes — much less by force? Passengers bumped involuntarily have rights to compensation, but the airlines have great latitude to set their own priority rules for bumping travelers. Typically it’s those paying the lowest fares, lacking membership in a frequent-ﬂyer program, or checking in late who are most at risk. Bumpees who are going to be more than two hours late to a domestic destination are entitled to compensation of 400 percent of their one-way fare, up to $1,350, plus the value of their ticket. These rules, obviously, are in dire need of upgrading to suit modern conditions. The Department of Transportation acknowledges in its outline of passenger rights that some passengers may be more amenable to voluntary bumping than others, or more ﬂexible in their travel plans: “Almost any planeload of airline passengers includes some people with urgent travel needs and others who may be more concerned about the cost of their tickets than about getting to their destination on time.” The agency encourages airlines to “negotiate with their passengers for mutually acceptable compensation” in order to secure needed seats. As Daniel Gross observed at Slate.com, airlines have squeezed their overbooking privilege until it screams for mercy, even as they’re consistently ﬂying fuller planes. In the most recent boom-and-bust airline cycle, the industry “load factor” — the percentage of seats ﬁlled — bottomed out at 72.21 percent in February 2009, in the teeth of a crushing recession, but more recently has run in the mid-80s. That appears to be as high as it’s been in this century and may be an absolute limit, because some routes will never run at 100 percent. Tighter passenger loads have coincided with an economic recovery that makes ﬂyers more resistant to giving up hours, even days, of inconvenience, even for a few hundred bucks. As Gross pointed out, a two-hour delay in a ﬂight could translate to a missed family event or a lost business contract. The solution to the conﬂict between an airline’s desire to ﬁll every seat and passengers’ need to get where they’re going on time is blindingly obvious: Let the market work. The Louisville doctor’s need to get home was clearly worth more to him than $800. But so was United’s need to get a crew from Chicago to Louisville. The airline decided to cheap out by not offering passengers payment that would be enough to free up more seats. Instead of paying the true value of moving its crew, it decided to impose that cost on one unfortunate passenger. Then, as though to prove beyond doubt that it considered its passengers the expendable players in this drama, it summoned the police to do its dirty work. Something’s wrong with the intellects running United Airlines, and if there’s any justice in the world, now they’ll really pay. Michael Hiltzik is a columnist for the Los Angeles Times.

TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio — Back-to-back bummers. The Eastern baseball team — which suffered its ﬁrst loss of the season, by 3-2 ﬁnal on Saturday, at Southern — followed it up with a 7-1 setback at the hands of Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division guest Waterford, on Monday in Meigs County. The Wildcats (7-2, 5-0 TVC Hocking) gained a 1-0 lead in the top of the second inning, after Clay Hayes drew a base on balls and then scored after an error. Waterford added another run in the top of the third, when Isaac Huffman sacriﬁced home Jordan Welch. Eastern (2-2, 2-2) advanced a runner into scoring position in each of the ﬁrst two innings, but only had one base runner reach ﬁrst base in innings 3-through-5. The Eagles ﬁnally broke through in the bottom of the sixth inning, when Austin Coleman reached on an error and later scored on an error. The guests turned a one-run lead into a 7-1 victory in the seventh inning, scoring ﬁve runs on four hits, two walks and an error in the top of the frame, and then retiring the Eagles with a strikeout, and a double-play. Riley Burns was the winning pitcher of record for WHS, pitching ﬁve shutout innings and allowing three hits. Earning the save was Welch, who allowed one unearned run and two hits. Burns struck out two batters and Welch struck out one, with neither Wildcat pitcher issuing a free pass. Ethen Richmond took the loss on the mound for Eastern, allowing seven runs, six earned, on six hits and four walks. Richmond struck out six batters in 6.2 innings of work. EHS senior John Little allowed one hit and one walk in .1 See EAGLES | 7 Southern doubles up Lady Tomcats, 6-3 By Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com GLOUSTER, Ohio — Back to their winning ways. The Southern softball team snapped a two-game losing skid in dramatic fashion Monday night while claiming a 6-3 victory over host Trimble in a Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division matchup in Athens County. The Lady Tornadoes (3-4, 3-2 TVC Hocking) trailed 2-0 through four innings of play, but the guests found their offensive rhythm in a big way during the top of the ﬁfth after sending nine batters to the plate en route to a 4-2 advantage. The Lady Tomcats (0-5, 0-3) countered with a run in the home half of the sixth to close to within 4-3, but a two-run blast by Paige VanMeter in top of the seventh ultimately wrapped up the 6-3 triumph. Trimble opened the game with a one-out single from Emily Ward, who then advanced to second on an error that allowed Taya Lackey to reach safely. Alyssa Turley then reached safely on an error that allowed Ward to score for a 1-0 advantage. Kym Williams became the third consecutive THS batter to reach on an error as Lackey came home for the early 2-0 lead. The Purple and Gold — who mustered only two hits and three baserunners through four frames — snapped out of their offensive funk in the ﬁfth as the guests produced three hits to go along with three THS errors and a walk. Sierra Cleland started the inning with a single and eventually scored on an error that allowed Shelbi Dailey to reach safely while cutting the deﬁcit in half at 2-1. Dailey advanced to second on a Kati Barton walk, then Dailey scored as Haley Musser reached safely on a ﬁelder’s choice. Jaiden Roberts delivered a single to right ﬁeld that load the bases, then Lauren Lavender singled to left as Barton scored for a permanent lead at 3-2. On the play, however, Musser was cut down at third base for the ﬁrst out of the frame. Sydney Cleland reached safely on a a ﬁelder’s choice, then advanced to second on the ﬁnal error of the inning as Roberts scored for a 4-2 contest midway through ﬁve. Kaitlin Spears received a bases-loaded walk with two outs in the sixth as Dixon scored for a 4-3 margin through six full frames, but VanMeter’s centerﬁeld shot in the seventh delivered the knockout. SHS outhit the hosts by a 10-6 overall margin and committed three of the nine errors in the game. Both teams also stranded eight runners apiece on base. Sydney Cleland was the winning pitcher of record after allowing one earned run, six hits and two walks over seven innings while striking out two. Lunsford took the setback after surrendering four earned runs, 10 hits and two walks over seven frames while fanning four.

Meigs boys 4th, girls 6th at Mingo Relays By Paul Boggs pboggs@civitasmedia.com LOGAN, Ohio —The Meigs Marauder men mustered a fourth-place performance, and the Lady Marauders secured sixth-place, at Friday’s annual Logan Mingo Relays track and ﬁeld meet — held inside the sparkling Logan Chieftain Stadium. The Marauders managed seven top-three places, including four runner-up efforts, in amassing 69 points to take fourth. The Meigs girls, meanwhile, actually won three events en route to a 48-point afternoon. All 15 events, in both boys and girls, are contested as relays. Individually, the Maroon and Gold gained two championships, as sophomore Kassidy Betzing won the girls long jump with a leap of 16-feet and one inch — while Bailey Caruthers captured the boys high jump by clearing six-feet and three-and-a-half inches. Host Logan won the team championship with 106 points, as Marietta (83 points) edged out Nelsonville-York (79 points) for runner-up. The Marauders actually tied Athens for fourth with 69, followed by Warren with 52, Morgan with 45 and Harvest Prep with only three. On the girls side, Athens amassed 104 points to take the team crown, followed by runner-up Warren with 85. Marietta nudged Logan —76-72 —for third place, as Nelsonville-York ﬁnished ﬁfth with 68. The Lady Marauders’ 48 points were only ﬁve points ahead of Morgan (43) for sixth. For the boys, Meigs’ only track event runnerup was the distance medley, as the quartet consisted of senior James Parsons, sophomores Zach Bartrum and Cole Betzing, and junior Marcel Funk. The foursome ﬁnished the event in six minutes and 52 seconds. Its other second-places were all in ﬁeld-event relays — the high jump, the long jump and the triple jump. Caruthers (6-3 1/2) combined with fellow junior Devon Hawley (5-10) in the high jump, while senior Jared Kennedy (19-5) and sophomore Cole Adams (18-3) earned runner-up honors in the long jump. Kennedy, individually, was second overall in that event — and joined Jacob Roush to take second in the triple jump. Roush (34-feet) and Kennedy (37-feet and one-half inch) combined to jump 71-feet and one-half inch to claim the runner-up. Kennedy was third on an individual basis. For the Lady Marauders, Betzing and fellow sophomore Taylor Swartz teamed up to be a part of all three event victories. Betzing, who placed seventh in last season’s Division II girls long jump state championship, bested Friday’s ﬁeld by over a foot to win the individual title. Her 16-foot and oneinch leap, along with the 14-foot, ﬁve-and-a-half inch jump by Swartz, was good enough to edge out Athens. In the 800m sprint medley, Betzing ran the opening leg and Swartz the third —and joined senior Sky Brown and anchor Madison Cremeans to win that event. The group gained the 10 points, and completed the race in two minutes and two seconds. Courtesy photo Meigs’ Riley Ogdin competes in the boys shot put as part of Friday’s Mingo Relays track and field meet at Logan Chieftain Stadium. In the 1,600m sprint medley, Betzing, Brown and Swartz ran the same legs — and this time were joined by senior anchor Gracie Hoffman in taking that crown. The Lady Marauders won the race in 4:47. The meet was scored on a 10-8-6-4-2-1 points basis. A complete list of results can be found on www.baumspage.com.

The Wahama softball team got out of a lot jams over seven innings of play, but visiting Buffalo ultimately made the most of extra opportunities on Monday night during a 3-2 victory in a non-conference contest in Mason County. The Lady Falcons (8-6) and Lady Bison (9-6) both managed four hits apiece in the regulation matchup, but BHS produced 13 baserunners over the full seven innings while the hosts netted only ﬁve baserunners during that same time frame — and those extra chances eventually paid off for the guests. WHS, however, CLASSIFIEDS opened the scoring in the bottom of the ﬁrst as Hannah Rose led things off with a single and advanced to second a sacriﬁce, then stole third and scored on a passed ball for an early 1-0 advantage. Buffalo responded in the second frame when Haleigh Casto reached on an error and later scored on a passed ball that tied the game up at one. BHS took its ﬁrst lead of the night in the third as Lindsey Russell started the inning with a double, then Brooklyn Persinger and Cali Smith were both hit by pitches to load the bases with nobody out. Casto followed with a one-out single that plated Russell for a 2-1 edge, then Madison Burke drew a bases-load walk that allowed Persinger to score for a 3-1 contest midway through three frames. The score remained that way until the bottom of the ﬁfth as Emily VanMatre singled to start the inning, then advanced to third on a pair of passed balls. Rose delivered a twoout single up the middle that allowed VanMatre to score, making it a 3-2 contest after ﬁve complete. Neither team mustered a hit the rest of the way, allowing Buffalo to hold on for the narrow onerun triumph. The Blue and Gold stranded 10 runners on base, while Wahama left only three runners stranded while also committing the only two errors on the night.

They need a win. They need some help. But they still have a chance. Tyler Johnson scored 24 points, including the game’s ﬁnal four from the foul line in overtime, and the Heat kept their postseason hopes alive by rallying past the Cleveland Cavaliers 124-121 on Monday night. The Heat (40-41) remained No. 9 in the Eastern Conference, a game behind No. 7 Indiana (41-40) and a tiebreaker behind No. 8 Chicago (40-41). “We think it’s meant to be,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. “But Help Wanted General we have to take care of business.” That, and get some assistance. For Miami to reach the postseason — a near-impossibility after its 11-30 start — either Indiana or Chicago must lose. Here’s Wednesday’s slate: Miami hosts Washington (which is locked into the No. 4 spot), Chicago hosts NBA-worst Brooklyn, and Indiana hosts Atlanta. “It’s win or go home,” Heat guard Josh Richardson said. “Win, and we still might go home.” Hassan Whiteside scored 23 points and grabbed 18 rebounds for Miami. Richardson scored 19 points, James Johnson had 16 and Goran Dragic added 15. Deron Williams had a season-high 35 points, nine assists and seven rebounds for the Cavaliers, who fell to 0-7 this season when LeBron James doesn’t play. The Cavs were also without Kyrie Irving and Tristan Thompson, and fell a game behind Boston for No. 1 in the East. James sat with a right calf strain. Irving has a sore left knee. “I thought the effort was great,” Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue said. “It was unbelievable.” Kevin Love scored 25 points, Channing Frye had 21 and Kyle Korver had 18 for Cleveland, which wasted a doubledigit, fourth-quarter lead and lost in OT for the second straight day. On Sunday, Cleveland was up 26 going into the fourth in Atlanta. This time, the lead going into the fourth was 11. “I don’t think you take too much out of it,” Korver said. Miami survived despite two Cleveland four-point plays in overtime, including one by Williams with 34 seconds left that put the Heat down one. But Miami rallied for its 29th win in the last 40 games. “Even if we wouldn’t have started 11-30, to go to the last game and have an opportunity to be in the playoffs, you would take that,” Tyler Johnson said. “But I think it makes it that much more special knowing everybody was kicking dirt on us two months ago.” TIP-INS Cavaliers: If history holds, James won’t play Wednesday. He hasn’t appeared in a regularseason ﬁnale since 2007. … Thompson sat again with a sprained right thumb. … G Kay Felder (left lower leg) left the game in the third quarter. … Williams had a career-worst 10 turnovers. Heat: Dion Waiters (ankle) missed his 12th consecutive game. … James Johnson had nine assists. … Miami had a 20-6 edge in second chance points and an For Sale By Owner Notices Land (Acreage) Want To Buy HOME FOR SALE NOTICE OHIO VALLEY PUBLISHING CO.

The girls team competition was won by Sheridan with a total of 89. Fairﬁeld Union was second with 86, followed by Eastern — which won four individual events — with 82. A total of 15 teams scored in the girls competition. EHS senior Laura Pullins won two events for the Lady Eagles, claiming the title in the 200meter dash and the high jump. In the dash, Pullins’ time of 28.10 was .15 faster than second place, while the EHS senior’s jump of 5 feet, 2 inches was six inches better than the competition. Pullins claimed second in the 400m dash with a time of 1:03.27, exactly two seconds behind the pace. Fellow EHS senior Alia Hayes was victorious in the discus throw, tossing 121 feet, 6 inches, 2-4 farther than the closest competitor. Hayes wasn’t ﬁnished, as she took fourth in the shot put, with a distance of 32-2.25. EHS junior Jessica Cook won the 800m run with a time of 2:26.38, with the closest competitor ﬁnishing at an even 1:29.00. Eastern’s Sabrina Lauer ﬁnished third in the discus throw, with a distance of 98-6, while Ally Durst claimed sixth in 1600m run, with a time of 5:41.88. The Lady Eagles placed third in both the 4x400m and 4x800m relays. The 4x400m team of Cook, Durst, Pullins and Taylor Parker turned in a time of 4:24.91, while the 4x800m quartet of Cook, Durst, Parker and Rhiannon Morris put up a time of 10:31.41. Teays Valley won the boys team competition with a score of 118, while Fairﬁeld Union was second with 106 and Sheridan placed third with 99. A total of 14 teams scored on the boys side, with Eastern’s 19 points placing the Eagles 11th. EHS senior Jett Facemyer claimed the Eagles’ lone title, winning the 800m run with a time of 2:02.97, a full two seconds ahead of the nearest runner. Fellow Eastern senior Clayton Ritchie was ﬁfth in the 300m hurdles, with a time of 44.94. Eastern’s 4x400m relay team of Facemyer, Ritchie, Jeremiah Martindale and Matt Clingenpeel was sixth, with a time of 3:49.41. Complete results of the Falcon Invitational can be found on the web at www.baumspage.com ASHTON, W.Va. — It had more twists and turns than even a roller coaster enthusiast could handle. Through seven innings of ups and downs, the Hannan baseball team ultimately found no thrill at the end of Monday night’s ride during an 11-10 setback to visiting Teays Valley Christian in a non-conference matchup at the Craigo Athletic Complex in Mason County. The host Wildcats (0-4) led 3-1 through one inning of play, but the Lions (1-7) answered with six runs — four of which came with some controversy — in the top half of the second while establishing an early fourrun cushion. HHS answered with three runs in its half of the second to close to within 7-6 and added another run in the third to knot things up at seven, but TVCS countered with three runs in the top of the fourth while securing a 10-7 edge through ﬁve full frames. The Wildcats answered with three runs in the bottom of the sixth to knot things up again at 10-all, but the guests responded in the top half of the seventh as Jones singled in Hutchison with what proved to be the eventual game-winning run. In the home half of the seventh, Dalton Coleman provided a one-out single, then stole second and advanced to third on an overthrow at second base — putting the tying run just 90 feet away with only one out. Hannan, however, struck out in its next atbat, then Coleman tried to score on a passed ball. Alex Hawley can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 2100. Bucks blank, no-hit Raiders Bryan Walters/OVP Sports Hannan senior James Bledsoe legs out a single ahead of a throw to first base during the third inning of Monday night’s non-conference baseball game against Teays Valley Christian at the Craigo Athletic Complex in Ashton, W.Va. The relay throw from the catcher at the backstop to the tagging pitcher at the plate was ruled in time — allowing Teays Valley Christian to hold on for the narrow one-run victory. The biggest blow of the evening came in the top of the second as TVCS had just rallied to tie the game at three with two away in the frame. Sid Ross entered the game in relief of HHS starter Christian Holland and, with the bases loaded, made a 1-1 offering to Jones. Jones — who hit a solo homer in the ﬁrst — belted a long ﬂy ball down the left ﬁeld line. The ball was in a direct line of sight with the sun as it carried over the outﬁeld fence and was originally ruled a home run, which resulted in a grand slam. After an appeal by the Hannan bench and a lengthy discussion between the two umpires, the call held up — giving the Lions a 7-3 advantage. That call ultimately didn’t sit well with HHS coach Tad Greathouse afterwards, but the fourth-year mentor was very proud of how well his troops handled the adversity and continued to battle through everything. “I couldn’t be more proud of my guys because they did everything they were supposed to do to win this game tonight,” Greathouse said. “They showed a lot of heart, a lot of guts and a lot of resiliency tonight. Even when things didn’t go our way, we stuck to the plan and battled to do everything that we could control. I hate the way it ended up, but there isn’t another single thing that I could have asked for from these kids. I’ll take this kind of effort from my guys any night this season.” The Wildcats outhit the guests by a slim 11-10 overall margin and also committed the only two errors of the contest. Three of the Lions’ 10 hits were also long balls, with Lucas hitting a pair and Smith also adding a two-run shot in the fourth. Hannan used three pitchers in the contest, with Kevin Morehart taking the loss after allowing two runs, four hits and two walks over 3.2 innings of relief while striking out four. Breeding picked up the winning decision after surrendering zero runs, three hits and a walk over 1.1 innings of relief while fanning three. Coleman led the hosts with three hits, followed by Corey Hudnall, Sawyer Casto and James Bledsoe with two safeties apiece. Nick Hughes and Matthew Qualls also had a hit each in the setback. Coleman and Hudnall scored three runs apiece, while Hughes crossed home plate twice. Hughes, Casto, Bledsoe and Christian Holland each knocked in a run as well for the hosts. Jones and Hutchison paced TVCS with two hits apiece, followed by Smith, Breeding, Lucas, Cox, Jones and Walker with a safety each. Hannan returns to action Thursday when it hosts Buffalo at 5:30 p.m. Bryan Walters can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 2101. By Paul Boggs pboggs@civitasmedia.com NELSONVILLE — The Raiders’ road woes continued on Monday. That’s because the River Valley High School baseball squad suffered its third consecutive road defeat —and actually got no-hit at Nelsonville-York in an 11-0 blanking. Nelsonville-York senior pitcher Hunter Dobbs delivered his second no-hitter of the season, striking out 10 Raiders despite walking three. The Buckeyes backed up Dobbs at the plate, scoring nine runs in the bottom of the ﬁrst inning — en route to the win at Blackburn Field in Nelsonville. The contest was called following the ﬁfth inning with the 10-run mercy rule. With the loss, River Valley fell to 2-3 — and 0-2 in the Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division. The Raiders, in the last week, were also outscored 11-1 at non-league Ironton and 5-1 at Vinton County. The Buckeyes improved to 3-2, and 1-1 in the TVC-Ohio. Dobbs also pitched a no-hitter against Federal Hocking in the season opener on March 25. Nelsonville-York notched six hits in the win, paced by Reece Robson with a double, a single and three runs batted in. Dobbs helped his cause with a single and two RBIs. The Raiders, which were set to host non-league Federal Hocking on Tuesday, return to TVC-Ohio action today (Wednesday, April 12) by hosting Athens.

That’s because the Raiders and Lady Raiders, in South Gallia’s inaugural track and ﬁeld invitational on Saturday, ran away with the team championships — by winning at least a dozen events apiece. For the boys, the Raiders racked up 14 event titles, as South Gallia garnered two and Green just one. The Raiders easily ran away with the club crown, amassing 105 points while Green was the runner-up at 34. Host South Gallia gained 27, as Sciotoville East earned six points. On the girls side, the Lady Raiders registered a dozen event victories, as Green senior Kaylynn Blizzard bolstered the Bobcats’ 37 points with three wins. The Lady Rebels, with junior Jessica Luther leading the way, wound up with 28 points. Sciotoville East did not score any girls markers. River Valley won three of the four boys relays, as Green’s only win was in the 4x200m. Individually, Isaiah Beach was a double winner in the high hurdles and long jump, as Alonzo Penick (100m), Nathaniel Abbott (1,600m), Andrew Moffett (400m), J.D. Dummit (300m hurdles), Kyle Coen (800m), Layne Fitch (200m), Garrett Young (3,200m), Eric Weber (discus) and Jacob Edwards (pole vault) also won events. Abbott, Coen, Young and Caleb McKnight made up the 4x800m winners, as McKnight joined Moffett, Dummit and Beach on the winning 4x400m squad. Penick and Fitch both ran legs on the winning 4x100m quartet. The Rebels’ only wins were by senior Johnny Sheets in the shot put and freshman Kyle Northup in the high jump. For the Lady Raiders, they took the same relays as the boys — the 4x800m, the 4x400m and the 4x100m. Kenzie Baker was a double individual winner in the 800m and 1,600m runs, while Gabrielle Gibson (low hurdles), Savannah Reese (400m), Alyssa Lollathon (300m hurdles), Brianna McGuire (discus), Gabriella Adkins (high jump), Kelsey Brown (shot put) and Hanna Davis (pole vault) also won events. Baker, along with Kay- lee Gillman, was also a member of the winning 4x800m relay team —as Reese, Gillman and Abby Campbell combined for three legs of the champion 4x400m unit. Campbell, Davis and Adkins made up three legs of the 4x100m foursome. Luther led the Lady Rebels by winning the 3,200m run, as she joined senior Autumn Norris and freshmen Katie Bowling and Alyssa Cremeens in capturing the 4x200m relay. Blizzard swept the sprints (100m and 200m dashes), and also won the long jump title. The meet was scored on a 5-3-2-1 points basis. A complete list of results can be found on www.baumspage.com.
