Meigs man convicted
following 1 day trial
Staff Report

POMEROY — A
Pomeroy man has been
convicted of a fourthdegree felony following
a one-day jury trial.
Meigs County Prosecuting Attorney James
K. Stanley, in a news
release, stated that on
Tuesday, following a
one-day trial, a jury
found Travis L. Klein
guilty of trespass in a
habitation when a person is iresent or likely
to be present, a felony
of the fourth degree.
Evidence at trial
showed that on Feb.
3, 2017, Klein entered
a residence in the
Portland area without
permission and by force
and/or stealth while
under the inﬂuence
of methamphetamine.
While Klein attempted
to gain entry to an
upstairs locked bedroom, the homeowner
shot through the bedroom door in order to
defend himself and his
wife. Klein was uninjured and temporarily
detained at gun-point
by a neighbor in the
downstairs portion of
the residence before

ﬂeeing on foot. Deputies with the Meigs
County Sheriff’s Ofﬁce
apprehended Klein later
that morning.
Meigs County Court
of Common Pleas
Judge I. Carson Crow
sentenced Klein to
18 months in prison,
which was the maximum possible sentence
for a felony of the
fourth degree.
Klein was indicted
on Feb. 15, 2017 for
trespass in a habitation
when a person is present or likely to be present, which is codiﬁed
under the burglary code
section of the Ohio
Revised Code.
“Stanley is grateful that the victims
received justice in this
case. He thanks the
Meigs County Sheriff’s
Ofﬁce for their swift
and thorough investigation of this matter, as
well as Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Jeff
Adkins for his assistance with this case.
Stanley also thanks the
victims’ neighbor who
aided the victims during their time of crisis,”
the release concluded.

POMEROY — The
pavement steamed. The
sun was shining and
turning everyone’s skin
red. Rock n’ roll music
played throughout the

patrons clad in black,
leather, and an array of
bandannas. An assortment of many groups
made up one entity.
Despite the rainy forecast, crowds of bikers,
and onlookers, packed
the Pomeroy parking
lot, Main Street and side

streets over the weekend
to take part in the threeday festivities of the
32nd annual Memorial
Run.
The run is the largest
of its kind in Southeast
Ohio.
Memorial Day is the
time to reﬂect upon the

soldiers who fought and
who have fallen in war.
One way to execute
respect is participating
in an event ﬁlled with
honor with one’s brothers, sisters, mothers,
fathers, daughters, and
sons.

POMEROY — It
became the #MemorialDayChallenge that went
“viral” around the county
in 2014, although that
was never the intent.
Sgt. Major Jim Freeman explained his
Memorial Day story,
reading from that post he
wrote on Memorial Day
2014, during Monday’s
Memorial Day ceremony
hosted by American
Legion Post 39 at the
Pomeroy levee.
“On a small hill across
the road from my house
there is a tiny family cemetery that seems
out of place among the
woods there. One of the

Freeman said that his

Swearingen was part of

“James joined as a private on Dec. 3 that year

Freeman reﬂected on
Swearingen, a man who
at the time of his death in

Freeman’s own children.
“Perhaps he and his

Soldiers come home from

In 2014, Freeman said,
there were an average

took their own lives,
accounting for approximately 18 percent of all
suicides.
“War’s mortally wounded walk among us today,”

“These are casualties,

Freeman encouraged
those in attendance to
visit some of the nation’s
battleﬁelds, ﬁnd a quiet
place and reﬂect on what
took place at the site, listening not only with your
ears, but listening with
your soul.
In addition to Freeman, speakers included

Maryland beats OSU
9-6 in NCAA lacrosse
championship
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — After backto-back heartbreaks in the last two title games
extended decades of frustration, Maryland was
ﬁnally able to celebrate.
Dylan Maltz had two goals and an assist and
Tim Rotanz scored three times as the top-seeded
Terrapins defeated Ohio State 9-6 on Monday in
the NCAA lacrosse championship game, putting
an end to a 42-year title drought.
“It’s an unbelievable experience. You look at
everyone who played so hard for this program and
set such a platform for us to succeed, it’s awesome
to see them in the crowd,” Rotanz said. “I have no
feeling right now. I’m numb.”
Rotanz scored the ﬁnal goal with 59 seconds
left, allowing the Terps (16-3) a little comfort to
count down the ﬁnal minute after three goals by
Ohio State in the fourth quarter pulled the Buckeyes within two.
The Terps held on, then rushed the ﬁeld beneath
a cloud of gloves and sticks they tossed in the air
to celebrate putting an end to their own frustration.
“Two losses in two years is very hard to do and
overcome, but that just says an awful lot of what
the Terps are about,” said Connor Kelly, who
scored his team-high 46th goal Monday.
It was especially gratifying for Kelly, a junior
who just missed with a shot in overtime of last
year’s championship game against North Carolina.
A short time later, the Tar Heels scored and won it
14-13, extending Maryland’s pain another year.
“After what happened last year, for them to be
back up here speaks to their character and how
hard they worked and what a true team and how
unselﬁsh they are,” coach John Tillman said.
The victory clinched a sweep for both the Maryland men’s and women’s programs. The Terps won
the women’s title Sunday, beating Boston College
16-13 in the championship.
Adam DiMillo scored twice, Matt Rambo had
a goal and an assist and Connor Kelly scored for
Maryland.
Tre Leclaire had a goal and an assist for Ohio
State (16-5), playing in the title game for the ﬁrst
time. Six players scored for the Buckeyes as they
came up short in their third meeting against Maryland. The Buckeyes won the regular-season match
11-10, Maryland prevailed by the same score in
overtime for the Big Ten tournament championship, and the Terps won when it mattered most.
“It hasn’t fully set in yet, but it’s been a heck of
a ride and I couldn’t more happy and have more
pride to ﬁnish it out here with these guys,” Ohio
State senior goalie Tom Carey, who had 13 saves
Monday.
Although it was a disappointing end, this was
by far the Buckeyes’ best season in lacrosse. Ohio
State was in the NCAAs for just the sixth time and
had never been past the second round.
“They’ve created a new standard both on the
ﬁeld and off, an expectation, and helped really
deﬁne what we refer to as the Buckeye way,” Ohio
State coach Nick Myers said.
The familiarity between the Terps and Buckeyes
was evident in a low-scoring game, which Maryland broke open with four consecutive goals late in
the ﬁrst half for a 5-2 halftime lead.
The tight defense continued through the third

Dillon joins the pack of NASCAR young guns
CONCORD, N.C.
(AP) — The horde of
20-somethings and teenagers like Chase Elliott,
Erik Jones and William
Byron poised to take over
NASCAR seems to grow
larger every week. It
might be time to add an
older name in Austin Dillon to the “Who’s next?”
breakout list.
Dillon, a NASCAR
veteran at 27, pulled
off a stunning upset at
Charlotte Motor Speedway on Sunday night,
staying out of the pit on
the ﬁnal laps to make
up ground and capture
the Coca Cola 600 with
established winners Kyle
Busch and Martin Truex
Jr. charging hard. Dillon
had enough fuel to last to
the checkered ﬂag after
sweeping past out-of-gas
Jimmie Johnson two laps
from the end.
The win gave Dillon
his ﬁrst trophy in the
Cup series, brought the
iconic No. 3 back to Victory Lane for the ﬁrst
time in 17 years and

gave a boost to the team
owned by his grandfather, Hall of Famer Richard Childress. Did it also
put Dillon front and center among the next wave
of racers supplanting
retired or departing stars
like Jeff Gordon, Tony
Stewart, Carl Edwards
and, after this season,
Dale Earnhardt Jr.?
Dillon is not sure.
“It’s all about performance. Those guys are
performing, so they’re
going to talk about
them,” Dillon said. “I
knew we could do it,
we’ve just got to do it
more consistently. When
we do, they’ll talk about
us, too.”
Dillon’s performance
at Charlotte had lots of
people talking.
His new crew chief,
Justin Alexander, saw no
other strategy for Dillon
at the end than to stay
out while most other
contenders pitted with
35 laps or so left. No
one, Alexander reasoned,
would outrun Truex’s

car with fresh tires and
lots of gas, so their best
chance was to not give
up position.
It was a gutsy move
from Alexander, helming
his ﬁrst race with Dillon
after being tapped for the
job last Monday.
“That was a hell of a
call, Justin,” Childress
said, smiling.
Childress made some
difﬁcult calls to get here,
as well. Two of the biggest were backing Austin
in the No. 3 car that
last took the checkered
ﬂag with the late Dale
Earnhardt driving at Talladega in 2000. Childress
heard critics pick apart
his grandson’s skills
and demeanor the past
four seasons, with some
claiming it was an embarrassment to sit him in the
same numbered car that
Earnhardt led to six of
seven championships.
“I want to meet some
of them in the parking
lot,” said Childress,
sounding like a protective granddad.

While there’s a long
way for Dillon’s team to
go, the win heartened
everyone that better,
more winning days, could
be ahead. The victory
most likely locks Dillon
into the 16-team playoff
at the end of the season
for a second straight
year. And it gives the
team the rest of the regular season to test setups
and packages that might
succeed in those ﬁnal 10
races.
“That’s pretty cool,”
Dillon said.
It might also put him
near the top of the pack
for a younger group of
NASCAR fans looking
for a charismatic, fastmoving star to latch
onto. With so many
past champions and celebrated drivers leaving
the series, Dillon understands that to rebuild the
fan base, spectators must
connect with the drivers
they follow, so much so
that they’ll block off a
Saturday night or Sunday
to spend at a track.

Angels star Trout to have surgery
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Los
Angeles Angels star Mike Trout has
a torn ligament in his left thumb
and will have surgery Wednesday
that is expected to sideline him
between six to eight weeks.
The Angels put the reigning AL
MVP on the disabled list Monday
for the ﬁrst time in his career. The
outﬁelder hurt himself a day earlier
making a headﬁrst slide to steal second base in Miami.
At 25, Trout already is a two-time
AL MVP. He is hitting .337 and has

16 home runs, second most in the
majors.
Angels general manager Billy
Eppler said an MRI revealed the
tear. Team doctor Steve Shin
arrived in Anaheim later Monday
night, met with Trout and it was
determined surgery was his best
option.
“It was news no player wants to
hear,” Eppler said. “He’s been put in
a tough spot and it’s something he’s
still digesting.”
The Angels lost shortstop Andrel-

ton Simmons to a similar thumb
injury last season. He had surgery
and was out slightly over ﬁve weeks.
Los Angeles was 26-28 going
Monday night’s game at home
against Atlanta, and the lineup
recently missed ailing slugger
Albert Pujols.
Trout made his major league
debut by playing 40 games for the
Angels in 2011. Since then, he’s
been a ﬁve-time All-Star and has ﬁnished in the top two in the AL MVP
all ﬁve seasons.

Tiger Woods says medication, not alcohol, led to DUI arrest
By Doug Ferguson
Associated Press

Players arriving for a tournament this week at Muirﬁeld
Village might notice a framed
picture of Tiger Woods with a
resplendent smile and bright
red shirt. He’s posed there
with the trophy, an image that
embodies the excitement he
once brought to golf.
A far different photo
emerged Monday, this one
from the Palm Beach County

jail in Florida after Woods was
arrested on a DUI charge.
Sullen, lifeless eyes.
Thinning hair mussed at
the top. Scraggly facial hair. A
white T-shirt.
In another stunning development for a player who became
one of the dominant ﬁgures
in sports, Woods was arrested
on suspicion of DUI and spent
nearly four hours in jail before
he was released on his own
recognizance.
Woods said an “unexpected

reaction” to prescription medicine — not alcohol — was the
reason for his arrest. He said
he understands the severity
of the incident and takes full
responsibility.
“I want the public to know
that alcohol was not involved,”
he said. “What happened was
an unexpected reaction to prescribed medications. I didn’t
realize the mix of medications
had affected me so strongly.”
Woods said he wanted to
apologize to his family, friends

and fans, adding that “I expect
more from myself, too.”
“I will do everything in my
power to ensure this never happens again,” he said.
Jupiter Police spokeswoman
Kristin Rightler said an arrest
report may be available Tuesday.
Woods, a 14-time major
champion who ranks No. 2 in
PGA Tour history with 79 victories, has not played golf for
four months. He had a fourth
back surgery on April 20, and

just ﬁve days ago reported on
his website that the fusion surgery brought instant relief from
pain and that he “hasn’t felt
better in years.”
Rightler said Woods was
arrested about 3 a.m. Monday
on Military Trail, a six-lane
road south of Indian Creek
Parkway. He was about 20 minutes from his home on Jupiter
Island. His statement did not
indicate where he was going
at that hour or where he had
been.

Kerr not well yet, but
hasn’t ruled himself
out for Game 1
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Steve Kerr expects to
decide soon whether he will coach the Golden State
Warriors at all in the NBA Finals, saying Monday
he is not yet ready but hasn’t ruled himself out for
Game 1.
“As of right now I would not coach Thursday
night. It’s still up in the air. Still waiting for ‘Ahhhhhh!’” Kerr said, reaching his hands to the sky as
if to receive some miracle healing. “It’s coming, it’s
coming. … I think once we get to Game 1, that might
be a good time to make a decision one way or the
other.”
Golden State, unbeaten this postseason at 12-0
with sweeps of Houston, Utah and San Antonio,
hosts the defending champion Cleveland Cavaliers in
Games 1 and 2 on Thursday and Sunday.
The reigning NBA Coach of the Year is still not
feeling well after a May 5 procedure at Duke University to repair a spinal ﬂuid leak stemming from back
surgery complications nearly two years ago. He ﬁlled
in addressing the media Monday when acting coach
Mike Brown was out with the ﬂu.
“I told the team the good news is the team is really
healthy, the bad news is the coaching staff is dropping like ﬂies,” Kerr joked.
Brown has been coaching the Warriors since Game
3 of the ﬁrst-round playoff series at Portland, with
Kerr assisting at practice and from the locker room
before and during games. Brown was expected back
Tuesday.
“Mike’s been amazing. It’s an awkward situation,
again this is so unique,” Kerr said. “I’m not sure it’s
ever happened. … It’s just weird because on the one
hand Mike has to coach the team as he sees ﬁt. I’m
taking part in practices, helping with the messaging,
taking part in coaching meetings, but I’m not on
the sidelines during games. And so he has to make
those decisions as if it’s his team, but he’s also taking my advice and counsel behind the scenes. So it’s
not easy, but he’s obviously doing a good job. There
seems to be a theme when I’m out, I think the team
is like 108-2.”
Brown is set to go up against LeBron James and a
Cleveland team he coached in two separate stints.
Brown wasn’t around during the past two Finals
when the Warriors faced the Cavaliers, so he has
watched some of last year’s Finals. Kerr recently
reviewed all seven games from 2016, when Golden
State squandered a 3-1 lead and missed a repeat
championship.
Everything he can do to help Golden State get
prepared, Kerr is doing — until he feels he might be
ﬁne to return to the bench.

Cavs coach keeps NBA champs calm amid chaos
CLEVELAND (AP)
— Moments after the
Eastern Conference
championship banner was raised by the
Cavaliers for the third
straight time and the
obligatory postgame
interviews ended,
Tyronn Lue slipped quietly away.
Cleveland’s coach
ducked into the shadows, his preferred location.
“I don’t like the attention,” he said.
But Lue, once a journeyman point guard
who steered the Cavs to
an NBA championship
last season, has grown
more accepting of his
frontman role. He’ll
again be at center stage
this week as Cleveland
meets Golden State in
the third installment of
their title trilogy.
If the unassuming,
easygoing Lue had his
preference, the teams
would duke it out for
the Larry O’Brien Trophy on a playground
court in a stiﬂing hot
gymnasium, with only
a handful of onlookers present. A student
of the game, he’s old
school with a fresh perspective.
Of the many juicy
subplots between the
Cavs and Warriors, one
that frequently goes
overlooked is Lue, the
former assistant who
has blossomed in no
time into one of the
league’s brightest young
head coaches and a
playoff savant.
He’s 28-6 in two postseasons with Cleveland.
His players credit Lue’s
soothing, steady inﬂuence — on and off the

ﬂoor — as nearly as
vital to their success
as a clutch Kyrie Irving
3-pointer.
“It’s just his level
of calmness no matter what’s going on,”
LeBron James said
following practice. “He
always talks about, at
the end of the day, he’s
already won in life, so
whatever else happens
after this is extra credit.
And I feel the same
way. That’s why I relate
to him so much. Lose
here, or you win a game
here, it’s like, ‘All right,
cool. I’ve already done
so much more than anybody ever gave me credit of doing or thought
I can do, so there’s no
reason to get too high
or too low.’
“So it’s the even-keel
mentality about our
coach and it deﬁnitely
helps us as players
when we’re going out
into a war.”
Lue has been preparing for the biggest
battle of his basketball
career this week.
From the moment he
returned home from
Boston following the
Cavs’ win in Game 5 of
the conference ﬁnals,
Lue has immersed himself in the Warriors, a
virtual All-Star team
featuring two league
MVPs (Kevin Durant
and Stephen Curry),
a dead-eye shooter
(Klay Thompson) and a
triple-threat performer
(Draymond Green).
Lue’s defensive
strategy to this point
in the playoffs has
been to neutralize the
opponents’ top player.
The Cavs were able to
do that with Indiana’s
Paul George, Toronto’s
DeMar DeRozan and

Boston’s Isaiah Thomas,
who aggravated a hip
injury in Game 2 and
missed the remainder
of the series. Cleveland
blitzed, double-teamed
and did all it could take
away the other team’s
offensive threat.
Lue was asked if
it’s more difﬁcult to
identify who that is on
Golden State.
“Hell yeah,” he said,
his voice rising. “It’s
tough.”
There are few weaknesses in these Warriors, the ﬁrst team
to head into the ﬁnal
round 12-0 and winning
by an average of 16.3
points per game.
“They have so many
weapons,” Lue said,
“having four All-Stars
and now adding KD
to the mix who I’ve
always loved as a scorer,
just how he scores so
easy. They have a lot
of options. It’s going to
be tough, but we have
to lock into what we
have to do defensively,
and sometimes you can
play great defense and
it doesn’t work. Steph
is making tough shots,
Klay is making tough
shots and KD is making tough shots. But all
you can do is play your
defense, stick to your
principles and just make
it as tough as possible.”
The Cavs know Lue
won’t panic.
He stayed cool last
spring when Cleveland
fought back from a 3-1
deﬁcit to win its ﬁrst
title. Lue made subtle
tweaks to his rotation,
drew up key inbounds
plays, then isolated
Irving late in Game 7
on Curry. The Cavs
All-Star guard made his
now famous go-ahead,

step-back 3-pointer.
Pressure intensiﬁes
in the postseason, when
possessions, turnovers
and rebounds are magniﬁed.
As the drama builds,
Lue stays composed,
setting the tone for his
players.
“Throughout the
postseason there’s so
many different emotions,” James said.
“Going high, going low.
And if you’re a coach
able to just stay evenkeeled throughout the
whole thing, it relaxes
the rest of the group.”
Don’t be fooled by
Lue’s cool. He can get
ﬁery when needed.
“I always get mad
when guys make shots
in the ﬁrst quarter, second quarter, pumping
their chest and then the
game on the line they
miss,” Lue said. “So
you’re doing all that for
no reason. I always like
to stay even-keeled and
just play the game the
right way.”
Lue is a stickler for
detail, and he won’t cut
any corners preparing
for another dance with
the Warriors. He’ll have
the Cavs ready, and they
can also count on him
to keep them relaxed.
“When you’re prepared and you do the
best you can do and you
put it out there on the
ﬂoor, you’ve just got to
live with the results,”
Lue said. “I’m doing my
homework, I’m doing
every possible thing to
put this team in every
situation to win. When
you’re doing that, things
you go over every day,
end-of-game plays and
things like that, either
they work or they
don’t.”

PITTSBURGH (AP)
— The ﬁrst period of
their ﬁrst Stanley Cup
Final game was a rough
one for the Nashville
Predators.
They had a goal waved
off. They fell behind 3-0
and looked overmatched
at times.
And then things settled
down. Nashville dominated long stretches of
the second and third
periods, and even limited
the defending Stanley
Cup champion Pittsburgh
Penguins without a shot
for an impressive 37-minute stretch before falling
5-3. Game 2 is Wednesday night.
“I thought we outplayed them, I really did,”
Predators defenseman
P.K. Subban said. “Being
down 3-0 to the Stanley
Cup champions, coming
back and tying it up with
an opportunity to win the
hockey game is deﬁnitely
something to build on.”
Ryan Ellis scored in the
second period and Colton
Sissons in the third, both
on the power play, before
Frederick Gaudreau tied
the game prior to Jake
Guentzel’s game-winner
for Pittsburgh.
Pekka Rinne made
seven saves on just 12
shots. He faced eight of
those shots in the ﬁrst
period and then saw none
in the second period, the
ﬁrst time a team held an
opponent without a shot
in a Stanley Cup Final
since the league began
tracking shots on goal in
1958. The next shot he
faced was Guentzel’s goal
with 3:17 to play.
“At the end of the
game, I’m disappointed
I didn’t help my team,”
Rinne said. “We showed a

lot of character and I felt
we played a great game.
They’re a very opportunistic team, a high-skilled
team, and we have to
limit our mistakes.”
Nick Bonino scored
twice, including and empty-net goal, while Evgeni
Malkin and Conor Sheary
scored in the ﬁrst period
for Pittsburgh. Matt Murray made 23 saves.
The Predators were a
perfect 3-0 on the road
in Game 1 during the
playoffs. But they allowed
three goals in the ﬁrst
period for just the fourth
time this season, and
now they trail for the ﬁrst
time in the Stanley Cup
playoffs.
Nashville thought it
scored the opening goal
midway through the ﬁrst
period when Subban’s
wrist shot from the point
got by Murray. But the
goal was overturned and
ruled offside after the
ﬁrst coach’s challenge in
a Final game.
“The impact of that
moment and then the
chain of events that happened after that with
the penalty kills I think
changed the course of the
game,” Predators coach
Peter Laviolette said.
Pittsburgh was awarded a 5-on-3 power play
for a full two minutes,
and the Predators were
less than 30 seconds from
killing the penalty when
Malkin’s slap shot from
the point beat Rinne.
Sheary struck 1:05 after
Malkin’s goal, converting
a wide-open look from
the side of the net. And
with just 16.1 seconds
left in the ﬁrst, Rinne
poked Bonino’s centering
pass and the deﬂected
puck bounced off Mattias

Ekholm and into the goal.
“As bad as it seemed,
we still found a way to
get back into it,” Predators’ captain Mike Fisher
said.
The Predators were
hardly intimidated by the
big stage. Nashville beat
Chicago, the top seed in
the conference, in a fourgame sweep before taking down St. Louis and
outlasting Anaheim.
Pittsburgh owns a massive edge in Stanley Cup
Final experience, 156
games to just ﬁve for the
Predators, all by Fisher,
while playing for Ottawa.
But Nashville entered the
Stanley Cup Final playing
comfortably and conﬁdently, poise that was
on display during points
of the second and third
periods.
Ellis scored a powerplay goal through a Viktor Arvidsson screen
midway through the second period, cutting the
deﬁcit to 3-1. The Predators continued to press
and they were rewarded
on the power play when
Roman Josi’s shot from
the point changed direction and banked off Sissons’ knee at the top of
the crease and behind
Murray. Nashville tied it
with 6:31 to play when
Gaudreau scored on a
feed from Austin Watson,
who beat two Penguins
behind the net to set up
the goal.
From there, the Predators were rolling, with
all the momentum from
their three-goal comeback. Guentzel’s shot
changed everything.
“It just wasn’t our
night,” Fisher said. “We
just have to stay positive.
We’ll regroup.”
