Fourth, fifth and sixth grade students at Eastern Elementary School took part in the annual Reading Fair on Wednesday morning. The reading fair is similar to a science
fair, except that science projects are replaced with details about the book of the students choice, including information such as main characters, the conflict of the
story, publisher and author information and a summary of the book. Classic books like “Where the Red Fern Grows” and “Charlotte’s Web” were on display, mixed in
with newer options like Harry Potter and Diary of a Wimpy Kid. Some students selected their books based on things they like such as football, baseball or animals,
while others selected a book from their favorite series (Harry Potter or Diary of a Wimpy Kid). Judges, including (top left) Commissioner Tim Ihle and assistant to the
treasurer Terri Soulsby, (top right) Supt. Steve Ohlinger and treasurer Lisa Ritchie, and (bottom right) retired teacher Debbie Weber, spoke with the students about
their projects, with the winners to be announced at the school’s awards day later in the school year.

#Gettothepoint group welcomes new ideas
“If you build it, they will
come.” This seemed to
be the reoccurring theme
at a recent, local meeting
of a melting pot of young
entrepreneurs, council
members, teachers, and
many other young citizens
of the City of Point Pleasant. The group, called
#gettothepoint, promotes
their ideas and initiatives
on social media with the
same hashtag. It can be
found on Facebook at “Get
To The Point WV.”
The meeting was held
at the Mothman Museum,
where those gathered
shared their ideas and
came together to serve a
greater purpose for the
City of Point Pleasant.
Many ideas were tossed
around on how to get
business back to the once
booming Main Street and
surrounding areas downtown.
Discussions of various
food opportunities and
other tourist attractions
were mentioned in the
designated area owned
by Kyle McCausland.
McCausland’s lot is where
the former Franklin Building sat, next to the Mail
Pouch mural on Main
Street.

been a staple of discussion
in past months and many
would agree that the city
is beginning to blossom
into something new and
exciting once again with
the recent demolishing
of dilapidated buildings
and sitting areas being
designated on Main Street
thanks to the city and its
citizens. With a fresh scene
came hungry supporters
of the hashtags “gettothe-

point” and “turningpoint.”
The group is hungry
for knowledge in terms
of how to expand the city
into something great, but
they are also excited to
work with the City of Point
Pleasant, the Main Street
Merchants, and The Main
Street Board of Directors.
In future meetings, this
group hopes to get the ball
rolling on many different
ideas brought to the table.

They understand that
change takes a village, and
they are willing to work for
whatever it is they want
to earn. Supporters were
most deﬁnitely shooting
for the stars in hopes of
bringing welcome change
and business opportunities
to the small town of Point

Whole Foods ‘refresh’ board
AUSTIN, Texas — Trying to
revive its struggling business,
Austin-based Whole Foods Market
on Wednesday announced a major
shakeup of its board and named a
new chief ﬁnancial ofﬁcer.
The grocery chain named ﬁve
new directors to its board and
named longtime board member
Gabrielle Sulzberger as the board’s
new chair.
The moves came as Whole Foods
faces pressure from some of its
largest investors, who have called
on the company chain to make sig-

niﬁcant changes or to put itself up
for sale.
The Wall Street Journal ﬁrst
reported the Whole Foods board
shakeup on Wednesday but reported that the board changes were not
part of an agreement with shareholder Jana Partners, one of the
major shareholders that has been
calling for change.
The New York Times reported
that Jane Partners proposed some
new board members but that
Whole Foods rejected those and
made its own choices.

In a written statement, Jana
Partners said: “We decided we’d
rather keep all options on the table,
particularly given all the change at
the company being announced and
the pivotal issues facing the company right now. Now we’ll be waiting
to see if the newly reconstituted
board can show a real commitment
to ﬁxing the operations at Whole
Foods and pursuing all avenues to
shareholder value creation.”
Founded in Austin in 1978,
Whole Foods has 465 stores worldwide and 87,000 employees.

Progress report on
$160M settlement
with Frontier
CHARLESTON, W.Va. — West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey announced Frontier
Communications has increased internet speeds for
approximately 36 percent of customers impacted
by its estimated $160 million settlement with West
Virginia.
Frontier Communications entered into the
settlement to resolve complaints about internet
speeds provided to its customers. The agreement,
announced in December 2015, marked the largest,
independently negotiated consumer protection settlement in West Virginia history.
“My ofﬁce continues to closely monitor Frontier’s
compliance with our settlement,” Morrisey said.
“This agreement improves connectivity for thousands in West Virginia. It’s also crucial to helping the
state compete in this ever evolving world of digital
technology.”
The multi-faceted agreement
requires Frontier to invest at least
$150 million in capital expenditures to
increase internet speeds across West
Virginia and lower monthly rates for
affected consumers.
Frontier, to date, has spent $72.6
Morrisey
million in capital expenditures,
funds which the company reports
has increased internet speeds to 9,910 customers
throughout West Virginia, according to the company’s most recent quarterly report ﬁled with the
Attorney General’s Ofﬁce.
The Attorney General’s Ofﬁce, between 2013 and
2015, received multiple complaints from customers
paying for Frontier’s high-speed service, which advertised internet speeds up to 6 megabits per second.
Many consumers advised their Frontier service
was slow or did not meet expectations. The subsequent investigation found many customers expecting
internet speeds “up to 6 Mbps” frequently received
speeds 1.5 Mbps or lower.
Frontier denied any allegation of wrongdoing
and entered into the settlement to resolve disputed
claims without the necessity of protracted and expensive litigation.
The settlement speciﬁcally required Frontier to
invest $150 million, in addition to its $180 million in
planned upgrades as part of the federal government’s
Connect America Fund II program.
The discounted monthly rate set bills for approximately 27,500 affected customers at $9.99 – a reduction expected to cost Frontier $6.25 million per year,
which will shrink with time as the discount remains
in effect until mandated improvements allow Frontier
to increase existing download speeds.
Those with further questions can contact the
Attorney General’s Consumer Protection Division at

Postal Service, citing losses, US stocks rise as energy
companies rally with oil prices
seeks higher stamp prices
management’s control,
it posted a loss.
Operating revenue
came to $17.3 billion, a
decrease of $474 million
from the same time last
year.
The postal service
continued to notch
double-digit growth in
its package business,
boosted by the strength
of Amazon and other
Internet retailers. But
that wasn’t enough to
offset losses in both
ﬁrst-class mail and marketing mail, also known
as “junk mail,” which
make up the bulk of
revenue.
The postal service is
urging relief from the
mandate to pre-fund
retiree health beneﬁts.
Legislation in 2006
required the postal service to fund 75 years’
worth of retiree health
beneﬁts, something that
neither the government
nor private companies
are required to do.
Legislation passed
by a House committee earlier this year
would relieve the postal
service of much of the
expensive pre-funding
requirements and allow
a one-cent increase in
the price of a ﬁrst-class
stamp. The Postal Regulatory Commission is
also reviewing whether
to offer more leeway
to raise stamp prices, a
move opposed by many
trade groups.
First-class mail volume is down as people
rely more on email for
online bill payments.

The number of ﬁrstclass and marketing
mail items delivered
during the last quarter
was 34 billion pieces,
nearly a 4 percent
decrease.
The ﬁnancial numbers
released Wednesday
bring the postal service’s year to date earnings to $900 million,
better than the $1.7
billion loss for the same
period last year, largely
due to reduced expenses
for the health care prefunding.
The postal service has
lost money for 10 years
in a row. It says the
continuing red ink hurts
consumers because it
can’t make necessary
investments to ensure
“prompt, efﬁcient and
reliable postal services,”
such as by updating
delivery trucks and
equipment. Due to public resistance, it dropped
a previous proposal to
cut costs by eliminating
Saturday mail delivery.
“Today’s ﬁnancial
report shows the underlying business strength
of the U.S. Postal Service while also indicating the need to address
external matters beyond
USPS control,” said
Fredric Rolando, president of the National
Association of Letter
Carriers, which is backing the House bill.
An independent agency, the postal service
does not use taxpayer
money for its operations.

NEW YORK (AP) —
Energy companies jumped
with the price of oil
Wednesday, but overall,
stocks ﬁnished only slightly higher as a quiet week of
trading continued.
The price of U.S. crude
oil jumped 3 percent as fuel
stockpiles kept shrinking,
and that made investors
more optimistic about
energy company proﬁts.
Strong earnings from video
game maker Electronic
Arts and chipmaker Nvidia
helped technology stocks
move up. However weak
results from Priceline and
Disney hurt consumerfocused companies, and
health care stocks also
stumbled as drug companies fell.
Investors didn’t react
much to President Donald
Trump’s surprise decision to ﬁre FBI Director
James Comey on Tuesday
evening. U.S. stocks also
had little reaction to the
French presidential election last weekend, although
European indexes climbed
following the win by centrist candidate Emmanuel
Macron.
“It’s almost as if the
market has become numb,”
said Julian Emanuel, an
equity strategist for UBS.
“Investors are interpreting
this as more noise.”
Emanuel said investors are focused on economic growth and the
Trump administration’s
business-friendly agenda.
Until they have a clearer
understanding of how well
the economy is doing and
whether Trump’s policies
will be implemented, he
said investors may just

wait and see, in which
case stocks will stay in the
range they’ve traded in for
the last few months.
The Standard &amp; Poor’s
500 index picked up 2.71
points, or 0.1 percent, to
2,399.63, a fraction of a
point above the all-time
high it set Monday. The
Dow Jones industrial average shed 32.67 points, or
0.2 percent, to 20,943.11
as Disney and Boeing
slumped. The Nasdaq composite ﬁnished at a record
for the fourth day in a row
as it rose 8.56 points, or
0.1 percent, to 6,129.14.
The Russell 2000 index of
small-company stocks was
up 7.73 points, or 0.6 percent, to 1,399.59.
Oil prices made big gains
as reports showed U.S.
crude stockpiles dropped
by 5.2 million barrels last
week. That was bigger than
analysts expected. Crude
inventories are returning
to more normal levels after
they swelled to record
highs the last few years.
Benchmark U.S. crude
surged $1.45, or 3.2 percent, to $47.33 a barrel in
New York. Brent crude,
the international standard,
gained $1.49, or 3.1 percent, to $50.22 a barrel in

London
EOG Resources gained
$2.90, or 3.2 percent, to
$94.54 and Chevron added
$1.42, or 1.4 percent, to
$106.50.
Crude oil prices have
fallen in recent weeks as
investors wondered if the
members of OPEC and
other key oil-producing
countries will be able to
limit production and support prices. U.S. oil has
traded between around
$45 and $55 a barrel this
year as investors worried
about oil prices and proﬁts
at energy companies. The
S&amp;P 500’s energy sector
has dropped 10 percent in
2017.
Nvidia advanced
$18.35, or 17.8 percent,
to $121.29. Nvidia tripled
in value in 2016 and had
wobbled early this year.
Electronic Arts, which
makes games including
“The Sims” and “Mass
Effect,” rose $12.15, or
12.7 percent, to $108.16.
Emanuel, of UBS, said
investors are rewarding
companies that are reporting strong earnings growth
but don’t depend too much
on faster economic growth.
That includes technology
companies and banks.

WASHINGTON
(AP) — The U.S. Postal
Service is hoping it can
soon raise stamp prices
by a penny or more.
The postal service on
Wednesday reported a
quarterly loss of $562
million, despite growth
in package delivery, due
to continued erosion in
the use of ﬁrst-class mail
as well as expensive
mandates for its retiree
health care obligations.
It also attributed losses
to a forced reduction in
stamp prices last year.
The postal service is
generally barred under
federal law from raising
prices more than the
rate of inﬂation. But it is
seeking greater regulatory leeway to increase
prices, including a onecent rate hike provided
in a measure being considered by Congress.
The current cost of a
ﬁrst-class stamp is 49
cents.
“America deserves a
ﬁnancially stable postal
service that can continue to play a vital role in
our economy and society,” said Postmaster
General Megan J. Brennan. She said the postal
service continues to
aggressively cut costs.
The ﬁnancial report
shows what it described
as “controllable” income
of more than $12 million
for the three months
that ended on March
31. But when taking
into account expenses
to prefund retiree health
care and other items

THEIR VIEW

Have a dinner party,
for everyone’s sake
By Reg Henry
Contributing Columnist

An ancient saying tells us to “eat, drink and be
merry for tomorrow we die.” This can be read as
an overly harsh indictment of the food and beverages served at certain restaurants.
Just to be on the safe side, I prefer to be merry
while dining out at other people’s homes as a
participant in the venerable social convention of
the dinner party. My fear today is that the dinner
party itself may die, not tomorrow but soon, the
result of being starved of one vital ingredient.
In the public mind, the demise of the dinner
party will rank low in the hierarchy of problems
now besetting the nation. Arguably, it’s an elitist concern shared only by a better-fed minority.
After all, guys coming home from the mill may
seldom hear their wives say: “Hey, sweetheart,
don’t forget to polish the candelabra. We got
people coming over tonight and I am cooking
up boeuf bourguignon with kale salad garnished
with walnuts.”
So why do I, man of the people, present this
as food for thought? Because if the dinner party
goes into oblivion, we will dig our spoons deeper
into a simmering national stew seasoned with
bitter herbs.
Before I ladle out the whys and wherefores
of the dinner party peril, it is necessary to say
a good word about the joy of cooking when the
food is served by friends who have boldly invited
you over despite their better judgment.
First, the food is free and you don’t have to
leave a tip. Second, if the cook has not imbibed
too much wine in the preparation, the food is
likely to be good or at least not actually fatal.
Third, you are likely to meet new people and
make new friends. As a bonus, you may get
through the evening without insulting your old
friends.
The time-honored rituals of the dinner party
are always to be savored. My favorite is the seating of the guests according to the boy-girl plan.
What fun it is to see the best minds in the room
struggling to ﬁgure out how to seat women and
men next to each other. One day someone will
invent an app and spoil everything.
Another feature to enjoy is the overly enthusiastic praise heaped upon the hostess. “Marjorie,
this salad is cooked to perfection.” Food, wine,
good conversation — what is not to like about
dinner parties?
Ah yes, the conversation, always the mainstay
of any good dinner party. These days conversation, that vital ingredient, is in danger of petering out between the ﬁrst and second courses.
That’s because there’s an elephant in the room,
if you get my drift, and you just don’t know
where people stand and if they will be offended.
Political correctness has bred social correctness.
We are all left divided, isolated, talking only to
our own kind and not at all merry.
Previous dining generations had it easy, believing that no one should discuss politics and
religion. Goodness knows what people spoke
about over the consomme. Invention of the automobile? The scandal of the new-fangled dances?
People are likely to have died of boredom face
down in their soup.
Politics and religion are the very things we
should be talking about. What else is there to
talk about, really? Well, sports is the traditional
standby and you can always break the ice by saying: “Hey, how about that defense?” How much
better for everyone if we could also say: “Hey,
how about that Almighty?” or “How about that
White House?” without fear of giving offense.
For this to succeed we need the survival of dinner parties, the civilized, neutral forum best suited to practice the lost art of disagreeing without
being disagreeable. And if your candelabra are
currently in the attic, just hold a barbecue, which
is really a dinner party only with paper plates.
Bringing people together over a hot meal
doesn’t have to be posh to succeed. The breaking of bread, the magic of hospitality, these are
woven into our cultural and faith traditions in
the service of fellowship — Thanksgiving dinner,
Christmas dinner, even the Last Supper, which
Episcopalians like me believe was catered.
We should all be inviting guests to dinner who
are not like us in the hope of ﬁnding that they
are like us. The country is horribly divided but
maybe we can come together one kale salad with
walnuts at a time. Lift a glass of red wine to the
light and the world beyond can appear more
wonderful.

THEIR VIEW

County governments seeking a reliable federal partner
By Bryan Desloge
Contributing Columnist

The ink is barely dry
on an agreement to keep
the federal government
open, and the talk of
Washington is already
about another shutdown
at the end of the ﬁscal
year in September.
With unpredictable
federal governance taking its toll on county governments, it should be
noted a shutdown won’t
stop county hospitals
from opening. Emergency rooms will treat the
sick and injured. Sheriffs
will be on patrol. Jails
will receive anyone they
bring in. School activities will take place, and
parks will host weekend
warriors of all stripes.
Courthouses and other
county facilities will
open and register people
to vote, grant marriage
licenses, lend books,
recycle trash and pave
roads.
Because whatever
happens on Capitol Hill,
counties will remain
open for business, delivering services — many
of them mandated by
state and federal laws —
to residents, businesses
and communities. Counties, responsible for so
many programs and critical services citizens rely
upon, cannot afford to

shut down.
Counties support 1,000
hospitals, 1,900 local
health departments and
750 behavioral health
centers. Counties operate
nine out of every 10 local
jails. Counties also own
and maintain 45 percent
— the biggest share —
of America’s road miles,
40 percent of all public
bridges and almost one
third of the nation’s
public transportation systems and airports.
Counties deliver services under considerable
ﬁnancial constraints.
Forty-ﬁve states impose
limitations on counties’
ability to tax and generate revenue, yet counties
ﬁnd ways to make ends
meet, often through partnerships.
Our nation faces major
challenges — poverty,
unemployment, health
care, infrastructure, the
opioid crisis — and local
governments need a reliable federal partner to
address them.
What we don’t need is
government by continuing resolutions and bills
that lurch from crisis to
crisis.
Despite counties’
best efforts, the unique
federal, state and local
partnership all but
guarantees a federal
government shutdown
or short-term ﬁxes will

cause signiﬁcant disruption at the local level.
Some services will be
scaled back or stopped
altogether, employees
and contractors could be
laid off, and projects residents have requested will
be delayed.
Many counties are
already facing drastic
cuts because Congress
has failed to reauthorize
and fully fund the Payments in Lieu of Taxes
and Secure Rural Schools
programs, which compensate counties for
nontaxable federal land
within their boundaries.
With a shutdown,
national parks and other
federal cultural resources
will close, depriving
counties of tourist activity and the revenue that
comes with it. Community Development Block
Grant funding would
cease except in cases that
would threaten public
safety. The same is also
true for affordable housing grants. Funding for
needy families would also
stop, usually backﬁlled,
but not always, by county
appropriations and local
taxpayers.
Beyond the direct
impacts of the budget
uncertainty are biggerpicture discontinuities
that disrupt local government’s efﬁciency. It’s
very difﬁcult to plan an

infrastructure program,
for example, if the federal government funds
operations in wildly
varying increments of
months and even days
but never for a full ﬁscal
year and never under
regular order in which
lawmakers weigh bills in
committee and hear from
concerned parties about
spending priorities.
Continuing resolutions just cement the
status quo when the only
thing constant about this
nation is change.
The role of government is to create the conditions for safe, healthy,
vibrant and economically
competitive communities. If we want to spur
the economy, we need a
more predictable policy
environment from our
federal partners for counties, businesses and the
public to make informed
decisions and move our
country forward.
Federal government
shutdowns and continual
governing by continuing resolution erode the
public’s faith in all levels
of government and hinder our ability to deliver
results at the local level.

According to Ward
and Ross, it appears
Davis drove her granddaughter, identiﬁed as
the toddler’s mother, to
work that morning to the
business along Jackson
Avenue. Inside the car at
that time, in addition to
Davis, the toddler and his
mother, was a four-year
old sibling of the toddler.
Davis then left with the
two children, driving to
her home on Lighthouse
Lane, just outside the city
limits of Point Pleasant.
Upon arriving home,
law enforcement alleges
Davis got out of the car,
as did the four-year old,
and the toddler was left
inside the car unattended,
from roughly, 7:30 a.m.
to 2:30 p.m. Ofﬁcers also
say, from what they’ve
been able to determine
in the ongoing investigation, it appears the windows were rolled up on
a day when the outside
temperatures reached
around 81 degrees. With
the car parked in an open
ﬁeld with “no shade
whatsoever,” it’s believed
the interior of the car
reached temperatures of
120-140 degrees, according to Ward and Ross.
Davis reportedly then
went back to the car,
along with the four-year
old later in the afternoon,
to go pick up the children’s mother from work.
Davis drove herself and
the two children through
a fast-food drive-thru

after consulting with the
prosecuting attorney’s
ofﬁce, the warrant was
ﬁled and Veith said he
contacted Gallia County
Sheriff Matt Champlin
whose deputies then
located Davis and placed
her in the Gallia County
Jail where she remained
as of Wednesday evening.
Ofﬁcers are awaiting her
extradition back to West
Virginia where she will be
arraigned and a preliminary hearing set.
Child Protective Services have become involved
and the four-year old
child is in the custody of
her mother at this time,
who is reportedly staying
with relatives, according
to ofﬁcers. There could
be more charges pending
in this case.
“When it’s a child, it’s
tough,” Veith said of the
19-month old victim.
Both Ward and Ross
said EMS crews and doctors at Pleasant Valley
Hospital did everything
they could to attempt to
save the toddler, despite
how he was found.
“The ER was just
amazing that day…if they
could’ve…if it would’ve
just happened, they
would’ve gotten him
back,” Ross said.

I would hope it was an
accident.”
Ross said upon investigating the case, it
appears the child was
possibly asleep at the
time Davis arrived home
and the morning was
cool, at least to start. He
said given the state of
the home, which Ward
described as “unlivable,”
the car may’ve been a
more sanitary place for
the child to be, despite
it being described as
“ﬁlthy” by ofﬁcers. Ross
said Davis had had the
children since January
and it had been cool up
until that day April 5,
when the temperatures
rose.
“It was a hot day and
just got too hot,” Ross
said.
PPPD Chief Joe Veith
said though the death
occurred April 5, ofﬁcers
wanted to be sure about
ﬁling charges and alerting the media, adding the
Mason County Prosecuting Attorney’s Ofﬁce had
also been involved in the
case.
“We wanted to be certain…this is pretty sensitive, you just don’t go out
and make accusations,”
Veith said. “We wanted to
be sure.”

before picking up the
mother. Ofﬁcers said the
mother got into the car
and immediately noticed
something was wrong
with the toddler. At this
point, EMS was called to
the workplace parking lot
of the mother to attempt
to revive the child.
After conducting the
autopsy, the Ofﬁce of the
Chief Medical Examiner
in Charleston determined
there is “no other explanation” for the child’s
death other than heat
exposure, according to
Ross. Ofﬁcers are awaiting toxicology results on
the child.
Though the ofﬁcers
couldn’t determine exactly when the toddler died,
they feel he had been
dead for some time before
paramedics arrived at the
parking lot on Jackson
Avenue, likely “hours.”
Ofﬁcers described the
Ford Taurus where the
child reportedly died, as
“ﬁlthy.” They said the
child was in the car seat.
Both Ward and Ross
said the reason why
Davis left the toddler
unattended, especially
for that length of time,
remains unknown.
Though she was interviewed brieﬂy following
the death, she had since
went to stay in Gallia
County. Ofﬁcers said
there was nothing in her
background to indicate
she couldn’t take care of
the children. They said
she had been babysitting
them for some time prior
to the incident, likely ﬁve
times a week, and following the child’s death,
she was evaluated and
appeared to be “clean”and
“not under the inﬂuence
of anything,” according
to Ross.
When asked if he
thought the act was
intentional, Ward said:
“I’m sure it was an accident. I don’t think anyone
would leave a 19-month

Eagles eliminate Pike Eastern, 6-1
By Alex Hawley

Alex Hawley/OVP Sports

EHS junior Ethen Richmond (17) catches a fly ball in front of teammate Josh
Brewer (9) during Eastern’s 6-1 win over Pike Eastern, on Tuesday in Tuppers
Plains.

TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio —
A wire-to-wire win and a third
straight trip to the district
tournament.
The third-seeded Eastern
baseball team never trailed
and earned its third straight
Division IV sectional championship, on Tuesday night in
Meigs County, as the Green,
White and Gold defeated
visiting Pike Eastern by a 6-1
count.
Eastern (14-7) took a 1-0
lead in with two outs in the
bottom of the ﬁrst inning, as
Kaleb Hill doubled and then
scored on an Ethen Richmond
single.

After back-to-back scoreless,
hitless frames, the hosts broke
through again in the bottom of
the fourth, when Josh Brewer
drove in Richmond.
In the bottom of the ﬁfth,
Eastern’s lead grew to 4-0, as
Hill scored on a double steal,
then Richmond scored on a
Brewer single.
The host Eagles scored two
more runs in the bottom of the
sixth, as Hill drove in Colton
Reynolds, and a wild pitch
brought home Coleman.
Pike Eastern scored the
game’s ﬁnal run in the top
of the seventh, as Evan Leist
reached on an error and was
driven in by Parker Clemmons.
“The way that we won and
the way the team played, I

couldn’t be more proud of
them,” EHS head coach Brian
Bowen said. “All of the things
that we’ve worked on all year
long, they’ve really put a lot of
things together, not just on the
ﬁeld performance-wise, but as
a team. It’s the best that we’ve
functioned as a team all year,
so I was excited to see us win
and do it that way.”
Coleman earned the pitching victory in six shut out
innings for the hosts, striking
out nine batters, walking four
and allowing allowing ﬁve hits.
Richmond pitched the ﬁnal
frame for the victors, allowing
one unearned run and one hit,
while striking out one batter.

Lady Eagles top
Southern, 11-1
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@civitasmedia.com

TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio — A pair of ﬁves
won’t do you much good at the poker table, but
they certainly do wonders on the softball diamond.
Host Eastern turned a scoreless game through
two-plus innings into a double-digit lead after
four complete en route to an 11-1 mercy-rule
victory over Southern on Tuesday night in a nonconference contest at Don Jackson Field in Meigs
County.
Both the Lady Eagles (17-4) and visiting Lady
Tornadoes (10-11) felt the need to get a game in
so that they could collectively stay fresh for the
upcoming Division IV tournament, so the squads
made a late addition to the schedule to accomplish
that common goal.
Make no mistake, both programs were ready
to play again after a pair of close-knit battles in
Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division play this
spring — which the Green and White won by
counts of 4-3 at SHS and 23-19 at home.
And through two innings of play, it appeared
that the third meeting was taking a similar shape
as the previous two encounters. Then came the
bottom of the third.
Hannah Bailey and Abbie Hawley started things
with a back-to-back lead-off walks, then Emmalea
Durst reached on an error to load the bases. Sidney Cook followed with a free pass that allowed
Bailey to come home with the eventual gamewinning run.
Katlyn Barber grounded into a ﬁelder’s choice
in the following at-bat, which left the bases loaded
even though Hawley was forced out at home.
After that ﬁrst out, Cera Grueser answered with
a back-breaking grand slam shot over the leftcenterﬁeld fence — giving EHS a 5-0 lead through
three complete.
The Lady Eagles kept that momentum moving
in the fourth after back-to-back one-out singles
by Bailey and Hawley led to Bailey scoring for
a 6-0 edge. Durst followed with a third straight
single that plated Hawley for a 7-0 lead, then Cook
received a walk while putting runners at ﬁrst and
second with one out.
With a base open and Grueser on deck, the Lady
Tornadoes opted to take their chances with Barber
— Eastern’s four-hole hitter.
Barber responded by belting an 0-2 offering over
the left-centerﬁeld wall as that three-run homer
made it a 10-0 contest after four complete.
Southern had at least one hit in each of its ﬁve
innings at the plate, including a pair in the fourth.
The guests, however, had only one baserunner
reach third in the game — which happened to
come in the top of the ﬁfth.
Jaiden Roberts grounded into a ﬁelder’s choice
and advanced to second on a groundout, pushing
Southern to its ﬁnal out of the game with a runner
in scoring position. Sydney Cleland came through
on an 0-2 offering that ended up in right-center,
ultimately allowing Roberts to score for a 10-1
contest.
Eastern, however, got that run back in its half of
the ﬁfth as Durst popped out to left for the second
out of the inning, but that sacriﬁce ﬂy also allowed
Bailey to score from third while wrapping up the

Tuesday in Racine.

Tornadoes rally past Belpre, 4-3
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@civitasmedia.com

RACINE, Ohio —
After a three-year hiatus,
the Tornadoes are headed
back to the district tournament.
The second-seeded
Southern baseball team
won its ﬁrst Division IV
sectional championship
since 2013, on Tuesday
evening at Star Mill Park,
as the Tornadoes rallied
from a 3-0 deﬁcit to claim
a 4-3 win over seventhseeded Belpre.
In the top of ﬁrst
inning, Belpre (8-18)
pushed three runs across,
using four hits, one walk
and one error. However,
the Golden Eagles only
managed four hits over
the remainder of the
game and only advanced
to third base once.
“We played well after
that,” second-year SHS
head coach Kyle Wickline
said of the ﬁrst inning.
“Blake (Johnson) threw a
good game, he threw into
the fourth. Trey (Pickens)
came in because Blake’s
pitch total was getting up
a little bit and Trey shut
the door on them.”
Southern (14-5) was
held scoreless for the
ﬁrst four innings, but the
Tornadoes certainly had
their chances, as four run-

ners were left stranded in
scoring position.
The Tornadoes cut
Belpre’s lead to 3-1 in
the bottom of the ﬁfth
inning, as Pickens drove
in Logan Drummer.
Southern pulled within
one run with one out in
the bottom of the sixth,
when Garrett Wolfe
singled home Haden
Miller. With two outs and
the bases loaded, Pickens
drew a walk that brought
Wolfe around to score,
tying the game at three.
Southern took the lead on
the next at bat, as Billy
Harmon singled home
Clayton Wood.
“It was a lot of discipline at the plate,” Wickline said of what enabled
the hosts to rally back. “I
think their pitcher started
to get a little tired, and
we started to put the ball
in play on him. We just
kept telling them ‘keep
focusing, keep grinding
and hopefully we’ll get
something to drop,’ and
we did.”
The Golden Eagles
were retired in order in
the top of the seventh,
giving Southern the 4-3
victory and the spot in
next week’s district tournament.
“This was one of our
goals at the beginning
of the season,” Wickline

said. “These kids have
worked hard these last
couple of years that I’ve
had them, and they’ve
been a good bunch of
kids.”
The Tornadoes
advances to next Tuesday’s district ﬁnal at
Paint Stadium in Chillicothe, and will face the
winner of Wednesday’s
sectional ﬁnal between
No. 3 Notre Dame and
No. 6 Manchester. This is
Southern’s 21st sectional
championship and SHS
has won its last 14 games
at the district level.
Pickens earned the
pitching victory in three
scoreless innings of relief
for the Purple and Gold,
striking out four batters,
hitting one and allowing
three hits. Johnson struck
out seven batters and
walked two, while allowing three runs and ﬁve
hits in four innings.
Bailey Sprague struck
out six and suffered the
setback in 6.2 innings for
Belpre, allowing four runs
on ﬁve hits, seven walks
and a hit batter. Jesse
Collins pitched the ﬁnal
.1 innings, striking out
one batter, walking one
and allowing one hit.
Dylan Smith led the
victors at the plate, going
2-for-2. Drummer doubled
once and scored once

for the Tornadoes, Wolfe
singled once, scored once
and drove in one run,
while Harmon marked a
single and an RBI. Jensen
Anderson contributed
a single to the winning
cause, Pickens added two
RBIs, while Wood and
Miller both scored once.
Collins and Logan
Adams both recorded two
hits to lead the Golden
Eagles.
SHS committed just
one error and left 11 runners on base, while the
Orange and Black had
zero errors and eight runners stranded.
Southern swept Belpre
in the regular season,
winning 5-1 at Civitan
Park on April 3, and 9-3
at Star Mill Park on April
20.
“Belpre played a great
game, I give a lot of credit
to Coach Mullen, he does
a great job with them.”
Wickline said. “Baseball
is a crazy game and you
have to show up to play
and we did tonight. It
didn’t look like it the ﬁrst
three-or-four innings, but
we got out barrings back,
we got ourselves to calm
down and we refocused
on our goal.”

Wahama stings Yellow Jackets, 11-4
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@civitasmedia.com

WILLIAMSTOWN,
W.Va. — A ‘Sweet 16’
indeed.
The two-time reigning Class A champion
Wahama baseball team
extended its postseason
win streak to 16 consecutive games on Tuesday
night following an 11-4
victory over secondseeded Williamstown
in a Region 4, Section 1
winner’s bracket semiﬁnal in Wood County.
The third-seeded
White Falcons (17-9)
surrendered only one
hit over seven innings
and led wire-to-wire in
the convincing triumph,
which allowed the Red
and White to advance
to the winner’s bracket
ﬁnal on Wednesday
night at top-seeded
Ravenswood.
The Red Devils
defeated Wirt County
by an 11-1 count on the
other side of the winner’s bracket on Tuesday
night.
After a scoreless ﬁrst,
Wahama plated a run
in the second and two
more in the third for
what proved to be a commanding lead for senior
starter Philip Hoffman,
who fanned a total of 13
batters and walked four
in 5.2 innings of work.
The Yellow Jackets
(17-4) mustered their
lone run in the home
half of the third as
Mason Adkins received
a two-out walk, then
stole second and third
before coming in on an
error — making it a 3-1
contest through three
complete.
The Red and White
answered with a run in
the fourth and tacked on
two more in the sixth
before having the ﬂood
gates open in the seventh. With a 6-1 advantage, the White Falcons
sent nine batters to the
plate and produced ﬁve
runs on three hits, three
walks and two errors —
giving the guests a commanding 11-1 cushion
with only three outs to
go.
Williamstown had its
ﬁrst two batters retired,
but the hosts received
four walks and had two
batters hit by a pitch in
the next six plate appearances — which led to
three runs and an 11-4
deﬁcit with the bases
loaded.

Bryan Walters/OVP Sports

Wahama senior Philip Hoffman releases a pitch during the fifth inning of Tuesday night’s Class
A Region 4, Section 1 baseball contest against Williamstown in Williamstown, W.Va. Hoffman — a
Marshall University signee — allowed one hit and fanned 13 over 5.2 innings during the White
Falcons’ 11-4 win.

Jonathan Frye —
Wahama’s third pitcher
— recorded his only out
of the game while facing
the ninth batter of the
inning in Evan Amos.
Amos popped out to
shortstop, allowing the
White Falcons to wrap
up the seven-run victory.
The Red and White
had six different players produce a hit in the
decision, which included
a quartet with multihit performances. The
guests also committed
only two of the nine
total errors in the contest.
Afterwards, Wahama
coach Tom Cullen was
pleased with the night’s
outcome — particularly
in putting together one
of the better overall
performances of the year
while playing in a hostile
environment.
“The most important
thing for us tonight is
that we are still in the
winner’s bracket. Philip
(Hoffman) had his good
stuff tonight and the
guys seem to be a little
more pumped up now
that the tournament is
here,” Cullen said. “We
played good defense
behind our pitchers, we
ran the bases well and
we had put the bat on
the ball. It was just a
good all-around game
for us, the kind we’ve
expected to see most of
the year.
“You are always
fortunate to leave Williamstown with a win
because that is a solid
team that we might very
well see again soon.
That said, we have to
rebound and be ready to
face a really good Raven-

swood team in 24 hours,
but the other reward is
knowing that the winner
will have a few days off
while the loser’s bracket
plays out.”
The White Falcons
opened the scoring in
the top of the second
as Jared Oliver reached
safely on a two-out
error, then came around
a batter later when
Tanner Smith doubled
to left-center for a 1-0
advantage.
Colton Arrington
walked, stole second and
later scored on a two-out
single by Hoffman in the
second, then Hoffman
crossed home plate as
Dalton Kearns singled
to left for a 3-0 cushion
midway through three.
Wahama answered
Williamstown’s run
with a score of its own
in the fourth as Nyles
Riggs reached safely on
a dropped third strike
with two outs that
extended the inning,
then Arrington singled
Riggs over to third.
David Hendrick followed with a walk that
loaded the bases, then
Riggs scored when Hoffman was hit by a pitch
— making it 4-1 through
four complete.
An error allowed
Hendrick to score in
the sixth, then Oliver
grounded out to second
as Kearns crossed home
plate for a 6-1 cushion
through six full frames.
Arrington knocked
in a run with a single
and Hoffman added a
two-RBI single in the
seventh, while the other
two runs in Wahama’s
ﬁnal at-bat came across
because of errors.

The White Falcons
outhit the hosts by a sizable 11-1 overall margin
and also stranded 11
runners on base, compared to the 10 left on
by the Yellow Jackets.
Hoffman was the winning hurler of record
with his 111-pitch effort,
which included at least
two strikeouts in all but
one of the six innings he
worked in. Hoffman also
surrendered only one
earned run and gave up
a bloop single to Amos
to start the bottom of
the fourth.
Adkins took the loss
for Williamstown after
surrendering four runs
(two earned), seven hits
and three walks over ﬁve
frames while fanning
three.
Tyler Bumgarner led
Wahama with three hits,
followed by Arrington,
Hoffman and Kearns
with two safeties apiece.
Hendrick and Smith also
had a hit each for the
victors.
Hoffman helped his
own cause with a teambest four RBIs, while
Arrington, Kearns,
Oliver and Smith also
plated a run apiece.
Arrington, Hendrick,
Hoffman, Kearns and
Riggs each scored twice,
with Oliver also touching home plate once.
Williamstown had
only one baserunner
reach third base through
the ﬁrst six innings of
play, which proved to be
Adkins before he came
home to score the Jackets’ lone run in the third
frame.

Lady Raiders roll N-Y in sectional
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@civitasmedia.com

BIDWELL, Ohio —
The River Valley High
School softball squad
appeared eager to get
another opportunity at
archrival Gallia Academy.
That was evident
on Tuesday, when the
host Raiders rolled past
Nelsonville-York in the
Division III sectional
semifinal.
The Raiders rolled
up at least three runs
apiece in each inning,
including three innings
of at least five runs, en
route to routing the
visiting Buckeyes by a
count of 21-4.
River Valley, despite
only six of its 21 runs
being earned, scored
six times in the opening
at-bat —before frames
of three, five and finally
seven to enforce the
mercy rule.
The Raiders racked
up 16 hits and took
advantage of a massive
14 Nelsonville-York
errors —tallying three
hits apiece in each of
the first two innings
and five hits apiece in
both of the last two.
As for the Buckeyes’
miscues, they made an
ugly five in the first —
followed by three errors
apiece in each of the
final three.
The contest was
called following the
fifth inning with the
10-run mercy rule, as
the seventh-seeded
Raiders raised their
record to 7-13.
They also turned
aside Nelsonville-York,
a fellow member of the
Tri-Valley Conference
Ohio Division, for the
third and final time.
“We played well.
We’re on the right

Paul Boggs/OVP Sports

River Valley first baseman Chloe Gee attempts to tag out Nelsonville-York’s Taylor Shockey during
Tuesday’s Division III softball sectional semifinal game at River Valley High School.

She allowed a pair
of runs apiece in the
third and fourth, but
only one of those was
earned.
“Arika Barr pitched
a good game. She’s a
freshman pitcher, but a
hard-working kid who
we expect to do well in
the years to come,” said
Roberts.
Nelsonville-York’s
only basehits came
courtesy of pitching
counterpart Kimberly
Jones in the second and
Emma Frazier in the
third.
Jones doubled to
right in the inning, as
Frazier singled to center before scoring on a
wild pitch for the only
earned N-Y run.
But the Buckeyes
never got closer than
9-2, thanks to the Raiders’ response of hitting
the ball, putting it in
play, and forcing fielders into poor throws or
unable to make the out.
Jones also went the
distance for NelsonvilleYork, walking Cierra
Roberts for her only
bases on balls.

path and getting better
and hanging in every
game,” said RVHS
coach Nick Roberts.
“We’re young, but in
the future, we’re going
to be a pretty good ballteam.”
As for the immediate
future, the Raiders get
Gallia Academy — the
second-seeded squad
in the sectional which
shut out River Valley
13-0 on April 14.
The Blue Angels will
host the Lady Raiders
for the Division III sectional championship on
Friday at 5 p.m.
The loss ended Nelsonville-York’s season,
as the Buckeyes were
the 10th seed in the
sectional, at 4-20.
River Valley freshman
Arika Barr pitched a
complete-game two-hit
gem in the win — overcoming four walks and
a hit batter by striking
out eight.
Barr faced five Buckeyes apiece in the first,
third and fourth frames
—and only four batters
each in the second and
fifth.

CINCINNATI (AP) — With one big inning,
the Cincinnati Reds gave CC Sabathia yet another
game to forget.
Make it four and counting.
Joey Votto singled with the bases loaded during
Cincinnati’s ﬁve-run second inning off Sabathia on
Tuesday night.
The Reds then held on for a 5-3 victory that
ended the New York Yankees’ winning streak at six
games.
Sabathia (2-2) struggled for the fourth consecutive start, unable to get his cut fastball in the right
spots until Cincinnati was in control.
The Reds piled up a walk and six singles — most
of them grounders through the inﬁeld — while
scoring ﬁve times during its big inning.
Votto and Billy Hamilton had two-run singles
during the 10-batter rally.
Manager Joe Girardi had Chad Green warming in
the bullpen as the inning compounded.
“My cutter got better as the game went on,”
Sabathia said. “In the second inning for whatever
reason, it was just sneaking back over the plate. I
felt good there with it later in the game.”
Overall, Sabathia gave up seven hits and ﬁve runs
in six innings.
His ERA has risen from 2.25 to 5.77 over his last
four starts.
Tim Adleman (2-1), who was born in Staten
Island, gave up three runs in ﬁve innings against
the AL’s top offense, including solo homers by Gary
Sanchez and Didi Gregorius.
Raisel Iglesias pitched the last two innings for his
sixth save in six chances, escaping a two-on threat
in the ninth when Sanchez lined into a double play.
“I was giving them too much credit,” Adleman
said. “They had the best record in baseball, they
were playing well and they just ﬁnished smashing the Cubs in Chicago. I needed to attack more.
Sometime in the third inning, I found it.”
The Yankees became the last team in the majors
to reach double-digits in losses at 21-10.
They split the two-game interleague series while
catching up from the most grueling game in the
majors this season.
The Yankees didn’t arrive in town and get to
sleep until the sun was coming up on Monday after
playing an 18-inning game the previous night in
Chicago, a 5-4 win that completed a sweep of the
Cubs.
Girardi rested a couple of starters each day of the
two-game series, giving them a chance to recover
from the marathon game at Wrigley Field.
Matt Holliday, Chase Headley and Aaron Hicks
were out of the starting lineup on Tuesday.
“With what we went through? A really good trip,”
Girardi said.
The Yankees’ concern at the moment is Sabathia.
The 36-year-old pitcher is in one of the worst
stretches of his career, allowing 22 earned runs in
20 2/3 innings over his last four starts.
Sabathia was pitching on an extra day’s rest after
his shortest start of the season — six runs in four
innings against Toronto.
“He’s got a big heart, that guy,” Girardi said.
“Hopefully that cutter will carry over to his next
start.”

For the Raiders, they
amassed 21 runs on 16
hits with 19 runs batted in.
Barr helped her
cause with a single,
two doubles and three
RBI, while Baylee Hollanbaugh went 3-for-4
as well.
In fact, as it turned
out, Barr’s two-run
two-bagger in the opening inning gave River
Valley its sixth run —
which proved to be all
it would need for the
win.
Sydney Little, Kasey
Birchfield, Chloe Gee
and Tyler George garnered a single and a
double apiece, as Isabella Mershon and Alex
Wood both singled.
Little, Roberts, Mershon, Hollanbaugh and
George scored three
runs apiece, while Gee
and Birchfield crossed
twice and Barr and
Wood made it once.
George actually
amounted six runs batted in, followed by
four from Gee, three
by Barr, two apiece by
Hollanbaugh and Mershon and one apiece
from Roberts and Birchfield.
Now, the Blue Angels
await the Raiders — as
a “ready” River Valley
club aims to avenge
Gallia Academy for the
sectional championship.
“Let’s hope we don’t
have the same outcome
as last time,” said
Coach Roberts, with a
laugh. “Let’s hope we
change the result of
that game. The girls
are ready this time. I
didn’t think we were
ready last time, but
they are this time. They
are excited and that’s a
good thing.

well.
