MEIGS COUNTY —
The body of missing
motorcycle rider Kenneth
Hayes was located on
Sunday afternoon during a search of the Harrisonville area, according
to Meigs County Sheriff
Keith Wood.
Hayes had been last
seen on Wednesday afternoon in the Harrisonville
area riding his Honda GL
1500 Goldwing Trike,
and did not return home.
Wood explained that
a search on Sunday was
organized in part by
the Ravenswood United
Pentacostal Church,
local law enforcement,
and family and friends
of Hayes. Approximately
200 people took part in
the search, walking the
area where Hayes had
last been seen and other
areas.
It was during that
search that, Wood stated,
Hayes was found in a
ravine near the State
Route 143 and Kingsbury
Road intersection, where
it appeared he had went
off the roadway and into
the ravine.
Wood stated that
Hayes’ body has been
sent to Montgomery
County for an autopsy,
with Ohio State Highway
Patrol now handling the
investigation into the possible crash.
Hayes’ bike and personal items were found with
him. Wood said foul play
is not suspected.

Point Pleasant
handles Man
Hillbillies, 40-21
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com

MAN, W.Va. — Now that was a burning bush.
Senior Hunter Bush ran for four touchdowns
and threw for another while guiding the Point
Pleasant football team to its ﬁrst winning streak
of the season on Friday night during a 40-21 victory over host Man in a non-conference matchup
at George A. Queen Memorial Field in Logan
County.
The visiting Big Blacks (3-2) did most of their
damage with Bush on the ground, but the dualthreat quarterback ultimately provided 233 additional yards through the air en route to a sizable
417-206 advantage in total yards.
Bush and PPHS struck ﬁrst on the opening
drive of the game as the senior found Joel Beattie
on a 57-yard scoring pass at the 10:30 mark, giving the Red and White a permanent lead of 6-0.
Bush added a 5-yard run at the 3:42 mark for a
13-point edge, but the Hillbillies (1-2) answered
with a Cameron Frye 2-yard run that closed the
gap down to 13-7 with 1:48 left in the opening
frame.
Bush tacked on a 1-yard scoring run with 7:05
left in the ﬁrst half for a 20-7 intermission advantage, then added an 8-yard scamper at the 3:52
mark of the third for a 27-7 lead headed into the
ﬁnale.
Bush provided his ﬁnal score on a 1-yard run
with 7:25 left in regulation en route to a 34-7
advantage, the largest lead of the night for PPHS.
Erick Grimmett whittled the deﬁcit down to
34-14 following a 1-yard run with 3:33 remaining,
but Point countered with a 36-yard scoring run
from Brooks Pearson at the 1:38 mark for a 40-14
cushion.
Frye hauled in a 59-yard scoring pass from Jeremiah Harless 16 seconds later to complete the
outcome at its 19-point difference.
The Big Blacks outrushed the Red and Blue
by a 184-132 margin in yardage with eight fewer
attempts, but the guests also gained 159 additional yards (233-74) through the air attack. The
guests claimed a 21-8 edge in ﬁrst downs and also
ﬁnished the night minus-1 in turnover differential.
PPHS was penalized nine times for 80 yards,

Gallia Academy vanquishes Vikings, 46-8
By Bryan Walters

GALLIPOLIS, Ohio —
With temperatures well
into the low 40s and coming off a 15-day break,
you’ll forgive the Blue
Devils for needing a little
time to warm up.
By night’s end, however, Gallia Academy
managed to make sure
that its playoff dream was
still burning brighter than
ever.
The Gallia Academy
football team led wire-towire and notched its ﬁrst
postseason win in eight
years on Saturday night
during a 46-8 victory over
visiting Vinton County
in a Division IV, Region
15 second round playoff
contest at Memorial Field
in Gallia County.
The ﬁfth seeded Blue
Devils (6-1) — who
earned a bye for the start
of last week’s opening
round of the playoffs
— mustered only eight
points through nearly 22
minutes of regulation, but
the hosts hit on a pair of
quick-strike scores over
the ﬁnal 2:06 of the ﬁrst
half to take a 24-0 advantage into the intermission.
The 12th seeded
Vikings (4-4) — fresh off
the program’s ﬁrst-ever
playoff win, a 33-20 decision over Belmont Union
Local — needed only one
play on their second drive
of the second half to produce their only points of
the night.
After returning a
punt back to the GAHS
48-yard line, the Maroon

and Gray handed the ball
to Zack Radabaugh on
ﬁrst down. Radabaugh
ran around the left side
and rumbled 48 yards to
paydirt to close the gap
back down to a 2-possession game at 24-8 with
7:28 left in the third.
The Blue and White
retaliated with three
consecutive touchdown
runs by James Armstrong
over the ﬁnal 17 minutes
of regulation, allowing
the Blue Devils to reel
off 22 unanswered points
the rest of the way while
wrapping up the 38-point
triumph.
Armstrong accounted
for ﬁve of Gallia Acad-

emy’s six touchdowns
on the night, with four
of those coming on the
ground as part of 222yard rushing effort on 23
attempts — an average of
nearly 9.7 yards per carry.
Armstrong’s leg work,
not to mention a stout
defensive performance
that allowed only 178
yards of total offense
while also forcing four
turnovers, allowed the
Blue Devils to pick up
their ﬁrst playoff win
since defeating Cincinnati
Archbishop McNicholas
by a 37-35 margin at
Memorial Field during
the opening round of the
2012 postseason.

It was far from a perfect performance, but the
Blue Devils ultimately
managed to achieve their
main goal by night’s
end. And, in doing so,
GAHS will be headed to
Byesville on Saturday to
face fourth seeded Meadowbrook in a Region 15
quarterﬁnal at 7 p.m.
Afterwards, fourth
year GAHS coach Alex
Penrod was pleased that
his troops were able to
pick up the program’s
seventh victory as part of
their 13th playoff appearance. It was also the ﬁrst
playoff win for Penrod at
GAHS after consecutive
opening rounds losses the
last two postseasons.
“We were sitting in that
ﬁrst quarter with an 8-0
lead and both teams were
just playing that chess
match, trying to ﬁgure
each other out. We felt
comfortable with where
we were, but we just
couldn’t get the offense
going early on. Honestly,
it took us a little bit of
time to work off that 15
days of rust. Once we
started to get in a ﬂow,
things started working
out in our favor and we
were able to take care of
business,” Penrod said.
“We got some big plays
from our defense tonight
and they really helped us
set the tone for things
early on. We blocked two
punts on special teams
too, and that also helped
us pick up some momentum that our offense was
able to feed off of.
“We’re still not satisﬁed

touchdown pass from Braxton Dudley
to Dawlson Moore. T.J. Wehr ran
in the two-point conversion, cutting
Eastern’s lead to 20-8 with 1:32 left in
the ﬁrst half.
Eastern was picked off on its ﬁnal
possession of the ﬁrst half, but was
back in the end zone on the ﬁrst drive
after the break. EHS went 57 yards on
three straight carries by Fitzgerald,
who made the Eagle lead 26-8 on a
21-yard touchdown run 1:13 into the
second half.
Over the remainder of the third
quarter, each team punted once and
turned the ball over on downs once.
Caldwell was in the red zone on its
ﬁrst possession of the fourth period,
but Ridenour intercepted a pass four
yards from the goal line.
EHS took over 5:30 off the clock
and made it to the CHS 32 before giving the ball back to the hosts with just
3:14 to play.
The Red and Black needed eight
plays to cover the 68 yards, and a
19-yard touchdown pass from Dudley
to Brandan Piskula came with 52 seconds left in regulation.
Fitzgerald recovered the on-side
kick attempt for Eastern, sealing the
26-14 win and the spot in the Region
27 quarterﬁnals.
Following the program’s ﬁrst-ever
playoff win, seventh-year Eagles head
coach Pat Newland talked about
facing the Redskins, and how his
team made up for the loss of Blake
Newland, a starting running back and
linebacker who missed the game with
an injury.
“They were the No. 2 team in our
region in points, they beat us earlier
this season, and they were voted
sixth, so they’re a legitimate playoff
team,” Coach Newland said. “It’s a
great win and a great feeling, our kids
just played hard. We talked about elevating our level because we had Blake

Vikings

out, and everybody did. Everybody
just got a little bit better, and when 22
positions do that, it’s great.”
For the game, EHS had a 297to-277 edge in total offense, with a
255-to-127 advantage on the ground.
Caldwell claimed a 20-to-16 edge in
ﬁrst downs, but lost the turnover battle by a 3-to-2 count. The Eagles were
penalized three times for 35 yards,
while CHS was sent back 30 yards on
six ﬂags.
Fitzgerald ﬁnished with a gamebest 234 yards and three touchdowns
on 29 carries for the Eagles. Ridenour
combined three catches with one
carry for 59 total yards, while Colton
Combs picked up 17 yards on seven
carries. Yonker completed 3-of-5
passes for 42 yards in the win.
For Caldwell, Dudley — who was
10-of-22 passing for 140 yards and
two touchdowns — led the way on
the ground with 83 yards on 18 carries. Piskula caught a game-best ﬁve
passes for 74 yards and a touchdown,
while Parks had four receptions for 46
yards.
Skylar Vanfossen — who caught
one 19-yard pass — completed his
only pass attempt for 10 yards and
ﬁrst down on a fake punt.
Next, Eastern will visit River in
the Region 27 quarterﬁnals on Friday. The third-seeded Pilots stopped
Waterford on a two-point conversion
attempt, securing a 7-6 victory on Friday in Hannibal.
“We haven’t seen anything on River
yet, but I’m sure they’re a great team,”
Coach Newland said. “I know Waterford was a really good team, they
played us hard, we played them hard,
it was great. We’re looking forward to
the challenge, and the opportunity to
play another week in the playoffs.”
The Eagles will take a ﬁve-game
winning streak into their quarterﬁnal
matchup.

The 2018 agreement followed an investigation that found credible evidence of abuse involving 20 former faculty members over
several decades.
Maher, a former college safety director and police captain,
resigned Monday, citing what he called “an intolerable working
environment.” He said school leadership questioned many conditions of the agreement, discouraged investigations that could
have legal impacts and tried to limit his access to information.
He said an administrator publicly berated him and that he was
retaliated against for trying to do his job.
Maher also said he is facing a “seemingly orchestrated threat”
of a civil lawsuit by an administrator.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Seven years after his death to cancer
at age 18, a Minnesota singer-songwriter has returned to the top
of the iTunes chart with his inspirational tune “Clouds.”
The Star Tribune reports that “Clouds” by Zach Sobiech took
over iTunes’ No. 1 slot from Justin Bieber on Sunday, two days
after the Hollywood movie of the same name based on Sobiech’s
life premiered on Disney+.
The ranking is based on downloads of the song. The proﬁts
will add to the $2 million already raised for cancer research via
Sobiech’s namesake foundation.
The single ﬁrst climbed to the top of iTunes in 2013, shortly
after the Stillwater-area teenager’s death. He had been diagnosed
with bone cancer four years earlier.
By that point, the YouTube video that led to the song’s ascent
had been viewed 4 million times. It’s up over 15 million now. The
