should the county lose the suit. This
means, the county doesn’t stand to
lose any money by moving forward.

potassium, ﬁber and magnesium. Eating plenty
of fruits and vegetables will help you feel
healthy and energized.
Why else should you eat MORE fruits and
veggies?
Fruits and veggies add color, texture and
appeal to your plate. Fruits and veggies are
nature’s treat and easy to grab for a snack. Fill
half your plate with fruits and vegetables at
every meal and snacking occasion.
When choosing fruits and vegetables, think
variety and think color. Dazzle your kids with
color and create a rainbow on their plate.
Eating fruits and veggies in a variety of colors
— red, dark green, yellow, blue, purple, white
and orange — not only provides eye candy for
your kids but also gives them a broad range of
nutrients.
How can you create a rainbow on your plate?
Here are a few ideas to try. Make a tropical
rainbow fruit salad with fruits of each color:
oranges, pink grapefruit, mango, papaya,
kiwifruit, bananas, and purple grapes. Sauté
your own medley of mixed vegetables using
each color: red onions, carrots, corn, jicama,
broccoli and black beans. Try a spinach salad
with dried cranberries, canned mandarin
oranges and red onion with your favorite
vinaigrette. Make confetti coleslaw: shredded
green and red cabbage, grated carrots, julienned
kohlrabi and ﬁnely chopped red and yellow
peppers. Try some different toppings on your
pizza: eggplant, pineapple, red peppers, spinach
or broccoli.
What are some ways to eat MORE fruits and
veggies?
Plan for fruits or vegetables to be the center
of the plate, and then add protein and grains.
When you add meat or cheese, think of it as
ﬂavoring.
Replace half the meat. Substituting half the
meat in a recipe with beans and/or vegetables
will reduce fat and increase ﬁber, as well as save
you money.
Plan your meals around fruits and vegetables
that can go a long way. Plan to include fruits
and vegetables for quick snacks, soups and
casseroles that you can eat a couple of times
during the week.
Limit or avoid expensive snack foods,
desserts and soft drinks that provide little or
no nutrition value for your money. Compare the
nutrition value of what you can purchase for $1.
A 4 oz. bag chips provides calories from fat,
salt, while 1 pound of carrots provides vitamins,
minerals, ﬁber, and antioxidants. 2 small
cookies provide calories from fat and sugar,
while 3 small apples provide vitamins, minerals,
ﬁber, and antioxidants. 2 liters of soda provide
calories from sugar, while 32 oz. of 100%
orange juice provides vitamins, minerals, and
antioxidants.
Buy in season. Some are less expensive when
they are in season. Also keep in mind that all
forms of fruits and vegetables are nutritious, so
canned and frozen forms are okay too.
These are some of the produce in season
during the fall:
Acorn Squash, Asian Pear, Barbados
Cherries, Broccoli, Brussels Sprouts’ Butter
Lettuce; Buttercup Squash, Butternut Squash,
Cauliﬂower, Crab Apples, Cranberries, Delicata
Squash, Endive, Garlic, Ginger, Grapes, Guava,
Jalapeno Peppers, Jerusalem Artichoke, Jujube,
Key Limes, Kohlrabi, Kumquats, Muscadine
Grapes, Mushrooms, Passion Fruit, Pear,
Persimmons, Pineapple, Pomegranate, Pumpkin,
Radicchio, Sweet Potatoes, Swiss Chard, and
Turnips.

Harvey has affected us
in many ways in the

THEIR VIEW

Tax reform remains tantalizing possibility
The following editorial
appeared in The San
Diego Union-Tribune on
Friday, Sept. 1:
While on the campaign trail in 2015 and
2016, Donald Trump
mostly stuck to Republican dogma when it
came to taxes — all tax
cuts are good, and they
always pay for themselves with increased
revenue — even if history shows that’s hardly
the case.
But when it came to
naming people to implement his agenda, this
vagueness gave way to
sophistication. Trea-

sury Secretary Steven
Mnuchin said lower tax
rates for the rich should
be accompanied by elimination of many deductions and dodges used
to avoid paying income
taxes. He called a simpler tax code — not
lower rates — the key to
boosting growth. Given
how byzantine U.S. tax
policies have led companies to park $2 trillion in
proﬁts overseas — funds
that could be powering
growth in America —
Mnuchin has a strong
case.
So when the president
gave a speech on tax

policy Wednesday, there
was hope it would be
substantive and smart.
In part, Trump delivered, calling for eliminating “loopholes and
complexity that primarily beneﬁt the wealthiest
Americans and special
interests.” But his main
emphasis was on cutting
corporate tax rates at a
time of record corporate
proﬁts — not on helping
individual Americans.
The criticism from
Democrats like Senate
Minority Leader Charles
Schumer of New York —
that Trump’s proposed
changes should focus on

helping the middle class,
not the 1 percent — is
valid.
Yet a simpler, fairer
tax code — one that
encourages economic
growth — may still
emerge when the dust
settles. Both Senate
Majority Leader Mitch
McConnell, R-Ky., and
House Speaker Paul
Ryan, R-Wis., have said
this is their goal. Given
how little Congress
has accomplished this
year, passing genuine
tax reform would be a
triumph that the GOP
needs — and America
deserves.

Main Street’s Museum Trail
Point Pleasant
offers unique
learning
experiences
By Miranda Wood
Special to Times-Sentinel

POINT PLEASANT,
W.Va. — More than the
Mothman makes Point
Pleasant, W.Va. unique.
Take, for example, its
Main Street Museum
Trail that consists of not
one, not two, but three
museums all contained
between First and Fifth
Streets, downtown. Within walking distance of
one another, these museums are as entertaining
as they are informative.
Point Pleasant River
Museum and Learning
Center
Starting on the corner
of First and Main streets,
and near the entrance
to Tu-Endie-Wei State
Park is the Point Pleasant
River Museum and Learning Center, otherwise
known as the “River Boat
Museum.” The museum
focuses its exhibits on
river life, information
on the historic Silver
Bridge, offers a riverboat
pilothouse simulator,
and explores commercial
enterprise on the Ohio
and Kanawha Rivers.
Walking in the front
doors to this museum
there are many newspaper articles, river artifacts
and video presentations
in view. Along the edge
of the walls and among
other rooms to the ﬁrst
ﬂoor are also antique diving outﬁts, a 2400-gallon
ﬁsh aquarium featuring
various native ﬁsh from
the Ohio River, and
unique merchandise for
sale. The staircase to the
second ﬂoor of the museum leads visitors to the
riverboat simulator (complete with a replicated
pilothouse and computergenerated scenarios),
a research library, and
other attractions.
As Museum Coordinator Ruth Fout stated, “We
are the center of Silver
Bridge information. Just
the other day we had
a woman call from the
Carolinas for information
about the Silver Bridge.
Her father-in-law was
a victim of the Silver
Bridge accident. We get
people from all over that
have family members
that were victims who
are seeking information
or people that are just
curious about the Silver
Bridge.”
Museum Administrative Assistant Martha
Fout explained aspects
of the unique learning
environment that resides
within the facility: “This
museum is a jewel in the
community. We are very
‘hands-on’ here. Someone
can blow the steamboat
whistle or ring the old
boat bells. The museum
is an entertaining way to
learn about our area.”
“We appreciate every
person who stops by,”
Ruth said. “We hope
they walk away with a
new appreciation of the
importance that our river
has had, and continues to

Ihle said that the ofﬁcials
were also prepared to discuss
the Medicaid Managed
Care Organization sales tax
loss, explaining the federal
position on waivers to replace
the tax loss.
According to the
commissioner, the federal
government does not have an
issue with approving a waiver
for a fee (which has been
done for the state’s funding
but not the county’s) as long

as the money from the fee
does not exceed the money
that was generated from the
sales tax. The current issue
could be that the waiver
approved for the state level
funding is more than the
sales tax the state had been
receiving.
As state and county
ofﬁcials in Ohio continue
to negotiate on the matter,
Ihle said the hope is that the
administration would seek to
adjust the waiver and divide
the funding with the counties
and transit authorities to
make it fair.
Ihle said that often as he
or Randy Smith would raise
their hand for a question one
of the other commissioners
would ask the same question
before it came to their turn.
“It was a like-minded
crowd,” explained Ihle. “Many
of the counties across the
state have the same issues
and concerns as those here.”
Ihle said that they left
the conference and the trip
“pleasantly surprised” and
“optimistic” for the potential
of working with those at the
federal level.
“The most beneﬁcial
thing for Gallia was getting
names, contacts and email
addresses of people,” said
David Smith. “You store
those because you never
know when that person or
contact could help you with
a problem or possibly come
up with a project that no
one thought about. That’s
really what you’re doing is
networking. I think they were
all pretty open. They said
they wanted to hear from us
and admitted they couldn’t
(solve every problem) but
they are willing to listen and
possibly try something from
another angle.”
Commissioners were also
treated to a tour with Randy
Smith explaining it was the
same as what the public can
take when visiting the White

House. For their purposes,
the walk through the White
House was the passage way
to the Eisenhower Building
which is located next to the
White House and is where the
majority of cabinet ofﬁcials
and support staff have their
ofﬁces.
According to the
U.S. General Services
Administration, the Dwight
D. Eisenhower Executive
Ofﬁce Building (EEOB)
was built between 1871
and 1888 as the State,
War, and Navy Department
Building, bringing these
rapidly growing interrelated
government departments
together under a single roof.
The Navy outgrew its space
and left in 1918. The War
Department outgrew its
space and left in 1938. The
State Department followed
in 1947. In 1949 the building
became the Executive Ofﬁce
Building to better identify
its occupants, the Bureau of
the Budget and White House
staff. In 1955 President
Dwight D. Eisenhower held
the ﬁrst televised presidential
press conference in the
Indian Treaty Room. The
building has housed all Vice
Presidents and their staffs,
beginning with Lyndon
B. Johnson. It has been
associated with people,
events, and decisions of
great historic importance
to the country. In 1957
the President’s Advisory
Commission on Presidential
Ofﬁce Space recommended
demolition and replacement
with a modern ofﬁce building.
This recommendation
was never implemented.
Designated a National
Historic Landmark in 1969,
the building is also within
the Lafayette Square National
Historic Landmark District.
It was renamed the Dwight
D. Eisenhower Executive
Ofﬁce Building in 1999 and
rededicated in 2002.

Holdren said Hudson told the trooper he

Red Roof Inn in Gallipolis and were then going
to go play a round of paintball for a birthday.
Washington could not explain why the pair were
headed into Gallipolis. Eventually, 98.967 grams
of heroin were discovered beneath a seat in the
vehicle. Field weight of the drugs were around
101 grams. The prosecutor said the street value
of the drugs was roughly $30,000
“We said (the heroin had) $30,000 street
value and we get there by a dosage unit
typically being a tenth of a gram,” said Holdren.
“Now, for $30 a tenth, if you’re looking at 10
dosage units per gram and you’ve got shy of
100, then you have (roughly) 1000 doses of
heroin that were taken off the street by this

could account for the loss in weight as well as
separating the substances from the baggies they
were placed in.
Washington was previously convicted and sentenced to nine years in prison with no previous
law violations in May after a jury trial. Had the
heroin been above at or above 100 grams in measurement, it would have labeled both individuals
as major drug offenders with a minimum mandatory sentence of 11 years in prison.
The prosecutor said Hudson eventually
admitted to law enforcement that he had
trafﬁcked heroin previously 15 times between
Dayton and Gallia County.
“From what we learned, there were people
waiting at a residence on State Route 7 ready to
buy the product,” said Holdren previously.
“This conviction is consistent with the
aggressive approach that we are taking to those
who are dealing and running drugs in and
through Gallia County,” said Holdren.

Rainer’s work in “The Great Ziegfeld.”
I wondered how many showings of
“Valiant,” or other coming attractions,
local audiences missed due to the
ﬂood.
But back to the present. The most
gratifying of scenes that have aired
out of Houston and surrounding areas
are of the relief workers, supplies and
simple acts of kindness that arise in
a time of disaster. The event has had
its share of controversy due to our
divisive times, but none of that talk
is important when it comes to saving
human lives from loss and misery. We
are a nation fortunate in being big
enough to share with people who have
suffered through no fault of their own,
and willing to lend a hand in tough
times. I have no doubt that Texans
who pride themselves on their selfreliance will rise above the devastation, but it’s up to all of us, especially
those familiar with ﬂooding and its
impact on our lives, to aid them in
returning to some kind of normalcy.

From page 4A

familiar sights and storefronts, especially after I’d seen pictures from
other communities in 1913 when
people exited their homes to waiting boats via second story windows
— if they were lucky enough to have
houses with two stories. The completion of the Gallipolis (now Robert C.
Byrd) Locks and Dam later in 1937
helped protect Ohio River communities without ﬂoodwalls from a repeat
performance.
One photo from ‘37 that caught my
attention, largely because of my being
an old movie buff, was of the Gallipolis Theater and its main attraction
advertised on the marquee: “Valiant
is the Word for Carrie,” a 1936 Paramount release later considered one of
the prime Hollywood tearjerkers of
its time, then-prominent because its
star, Gladys George, had been nominated for the Academy Award as Best
Actress of the year. She lost to Luise

Blue Angels
soar past
Coal Grove
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com

COAL GROVE, Ohio — The Blue Angels keep
rolling … and the streaks keep stretching.
The Gallia Academy volleyball team picked up a
straight game victory over Ohio Valley Conference
host Coal Grove on Thursday evening in Lawrence
County, giving GAHS its 18th straight league win
and 25th consecutive regular season triumph.
Also, the Blue Angels have now won 54 straight
games within the eight-team conference.
On Thursday, Gallia Academy (3-0, 3-0 OVC)
won the opening two games by identical 25-15
counts, before taking a decisive 25-9 win to complete the sweep.
GAHS senior Grace Martin led the guests with
17 service points, including seven aces. Ashton
Webb was next with 11 points and nine aces, followed by Hunter Copley with seven points and
Peri Martin with ﬁve points. Taylor Burnette and
Katie Carpenter both marked four points and two
aces in the win, while Alex Barnes ﬁnished with
two points.
At the net, Webb led the Blue and White with
team-highs of 14 kills and two blocks. Maddie
Wright ﬁnished with six kills and one block,
Barnes added four kills, Copley chipped in with
three kills, while Peri Martin and Aubrey Unroe
both marked two kills and one block in the victory.
Peri Martin earned a team-best 25 assists for
Gallia Academy, while Barnes came up with a
team-high ﬁve digs.
GAHS will look for a similar result when the
Lady Hornets visit Centenary, on September 28.
After a non-conference clash with River Valley
on Saturday, the Blue Angels will resume OVC
play on Tuesday, when Portsmouth comes to Gallia County. The Lady Trojans are responsible for
Gallia Academy’s last regular season setback, on
October 12, 2015, in Portsmouth.

Tornadoes shut out Cougars, 41-0
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@aimmediamidwest.com

RACINE, Ohio —
Tornadoes can still slice
through rainstorms you
know.
At least the Southern
Tornadoes did on Friday
night.
Host Southern amassed
272 rushing yards and
six on-the-ground touchdowns, and pitched a convincing 41-0 shutout of
the Frontier Cougars in a
non-league football game
inside soggy Roger Lee
Adams Memorial Field.
With the win, the Purple and Gold improved
to 2-0, while the young
Cougars — after a 1-9
campaign a year ago —
fell to 0-2.
The Tornadoes, despite
ﬁve fumbles largely due
to the slippery surface
from Friday’s rain, did
pretty much what they
wanted to do — and that
was to run the ball.
Southern’s top two
backs — Dylan Smith
and Riley Roush — carried 14 times apiece and
combined for ﬁve touchdowns, as Reece Reuter
scored on a 1-yard plunge
with 10 minutes remaining to round out the scoring.
Roush rushed for 105
yards and a hat trick of
TDs — as he had the ﬁrst
three scores with all coming in a span of 14 minutes and ﬁve seconds.
He had scoring runs of
ﬁve, four and 35 yards,
while Smith — almost 12
minutes apart — tacked

on his paydirt trips of two
and 15.
Smith outrushed the
Cougars by himself,
amounting 146 yards
with some of his biggest
gainers going late.
Southern led 12-0
midway through the ﬁrst
quarter, as Smith’s 2-yard
dive and Roush’s extrapoint run made it 26-0
with three minutes to
play in the second stanza.
Smith’s 15-yard run
and subsequent two-point
conversion run made it
34-0 in the third period,
as Andrew Evans added
the extra-point kick for
the 41-0 ﬁnal.
In fact, for the ﬁnal 15
minutes and 37 seconds,
the Ohio High School
Athletic Association
running-clock rule went
into effect.
However, the Tornadoes’ constant on Friday
night was indeed their
defense, which stymied
the Cougars to a mere
two yards per carry (66
yards on 33 attempts).
Frontier ﬁnished
with just 70 total yards,
and lost all six of their
fumbles while committing
seven total turnovers.
“Overall, I thought we
executed pretty well on
both sides of the ball, but
probably more so defensively. The conditions
did cause some problems
with turnovers, but even
with that, we did some
good things offensively
too,” said Southern coach
Mike Chancey. “This
was a good team win for
us. I want to emphasize

defenders during the first half of Friday night’s Week 2 football
contest at Roger Lee Adams Memorial Field in Racine, Ohio.

that these kids are good
kids and they make it fun
to coach. I’m proud of
their effort. They come
to practice every day and
work hard and pay attention, and we continue to
get better. We have to
make sure we continue to
improve, though. We still
have a long way to go to
be as good a football team
as we can be.”
It’s hard to be better

Wildcats claw past Wahama, 27-0
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com

MASON, W.Va. — The
ﬁrst time in a long time.
The Wahama football
team fell to 0-2 for the
ﬁrst time in 11 years on
Friday night following a
27-0 setback to visiting
Waterford in a Tri-Valley
Conference Hocking
Division contest at Bachtel Stadium in Mason
County.
The host White Falcons
(0-2, 0-1 TVC Hocking)
dropped their seventh
consecutive decision and
are now winless through
two weeks of play for the
ﬁrst time since 2006.
The Wildcats (2-0, 2-0),
conversely, have now won
three consecutive decisions against the Red and
White — with all three of
those coming in the form
of shutouts by a combined 119-0 score.
The Green and White
dominated the game
from start to ﬁnish as the
guests stormed out to a
21-0 halftime advantage.
Braden Bellville gave
WHS a permanent lead
with a seven-yard run
just one minute into
regulation. Cody Harris
followed with a successful
kick to make 7-0 with 11
minutes left in the opening period.
The score stayed that
way until early in the

The Rebels were forced
to punt on the ﬁfth play of
their possession, but then
the guests went threeand-out. Sheets blocked
the Lancer punt, giving
the hosts great starting
ﬁeld position at the FHHS

Maroon and Gold on the
second play of the drive.
The Red and Gold
got the ball right back
though, as Justin Butler
recovered a Federal Hocking fumble on the fourth
play of the Lancer possession.
On the ﬁrst play after
Butler’s fumble recovery,
Sheets broke a 23-yard
touchdown run. Sevat
added the point-after
and gave the hosts a 35-0
advantage with 5:00 left
in the third.
The Lancers ﬁnally got
on the board with 1:52 to
go in the third, on a thirdand-10 from the SGHS

caught a pass from Hunter Smith and rumbled
into the end zone. The
FHHS two-point attempt
failed and the guest
trailed 35-6 with 1:52 left
in the third.
On the ensuing possession, the Rebels fumbled
away possession on their
ﬁrst play from scrimmage. However, the Lancers were forced to punt
and Sheets found his way
through the FHHS line
again, blocking another
punt.
On the ﬁrst play of the
ﬁnal quarter, Northup ran
in a six-yard touchdown
and Sevat added the
extra point — putting the
ﬁnishing touches on the
Rebels’ 42-6 victory.
“I thought we started
well,” ﬁrst-year SGHS
head coach Mike Smith
said postgame. “We got
the turnover in the ﬁrst,
then we went down
again and I think it put
(Federal Hocking) in a
hole. I thought our kids
responded really well and

GALLIPOLIS, Ohio —
Improving every day, as
was its goal this season, the
South Gallia High School
boys golf squad placed third

The Rebels, the host school

competed.

Waterford, which entered
the meet tied with Southern
for the TVC Hocking lead,
won the contest with a team

ﬁve-over-par.
Wes Jenkins shot a 44,
while Evan Seevers shot a 49.
The Wildcats’ non-counting
scores were Brooks Serprano
with a 57 and Matt Semon

members of the now-defunct Southeastern Ohio
Athletic League, as the Blue Devils are now
members of the Ohio Valley Conference.
The Blue Angels enjoyed a 15-stroke victory
in the girls match, winning 222-237, as 10
different golfers represented GAHS.
The Warriors won the boys match, 164-198, as
ﬁve of their six scores were all under 48.

the Blue Angels with a 52, as she shared
match medalist honors with Warren’s Hannah
Jankauskas.

with a 56 and Macy Jones with a 61.

Rees with a 63 and Avery Minton with a 66.
Warren’s other scores were Zoe Miller with
a 58, Chloe Rader with a 62 and Emily Neville
with a 65.
In the boys tilt, sole senior Kaden Thomas
led the Blue Devils with a 42, while sophomore
Reece Thomas tallied a 47.
The other counting cards were by Hobie
Graham (52) and Wyatt Sipple (57), while the
non-counting scores were by Cooper Davis (58)
and Elijah Blazer (68).
Nick Ward of Warren, by ﬁring a smooth oneunder-par 35, captured match medalist honors.
The next four Warrior scores were a 41 by
Austin Barta, a 42 from Seth Davis, a 46 by
Casey Rafferty and a 47 by Chance Weihl.
Warren’s sixth score was from Owen
Richardson with a 58.
The Blue Devils were set to play in the annual
Westfall Invitational, at Crown Hill Golf Club,
on Saturday.

WELLSTON, Ohio — Anything can happen when you get to a ﬁfth game.
With the teams tied at two games apiece,
the Wellston volleyball team claimed a fourpoint victory over Tri-Valley Conference
Ohio Division guest River Valley in the
deciding ﬁfth game, on Thursday night in
Jackson County.
The Lady Raiders (2-4, 0-2 TVC Ohio)
— who’ve now dropped three straight decisions — won the opening game of the night
by a 25-20 count. However, the Lady Rockets
claimed the next two games by counts of
25-17 and 25-13.
With its back against the wall, River Valley
won the fourth game by a 25-18 count, forcing a ﬁfth and ﬁnal game. In the ﬁnale, the
hosts pulled out a 15-11 win, sealing the 3-2
match win.
The RVHS service attack was led by Jessica Roush, who posted 15 points and one ace.
Isabella Mershon ﬁnished with 14 points
and three aces in the setback, Carly Gilmore
added ﬁve points, while Caterina Gattinara
marked four points and one ace.
Kelsey Brown and Rachel Horner posted
three points and an ace apiece for the Lady
Raiders, Jordan Garrison added two points
and one ace, while Cierra Roberts marked
one service point.
Gilmore had a team-best seven kills for the
Silver and Black. Brown was next with six
kills, followed by Horner with four. Gattinara
and Madison Tabor both ﬁnished with two
kills, while Roberts and Rayanna Adkins had
one kill apiece. Gilmore and Gattinara both
contributed two blocks to the Lady Raider
cause, while Tabor marked one block.
Roush and Mershon tied for a team-high
with seven assists apiece, while Roush and
Gilmore each had ﬁve digs to lead the RVHS
defense.
The Lady Raiders will have their shot at
revenge on September 26, when the Lady
Rockets travel to Gallia County.
After a clash with Gallia Academy on
Saturday, River Valley returns to action on
Tuesday, when the Jackson Ironladies visit
Bidwell.

Redmen roll Blue Devils, 7-1
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@aimmediamidwest.com

CENTENARY, Ohio — Simply
put, visiting Rock Hill had the Blue
Devils’ defense seeing red.
That’s because the Redmen, spearheaded by striker Victor Aguilera
with the opening four goals, rolled
past Gallia Academy 7-1 on Thursday in an Ohio Valley Conference
soccer match at Lester Field.
With the critical OVC victory, the
Redmen raised their record to 2-0-1
—as they have also defeated Chesapeake while tying South Point.
The Blue Devils are now 0-2-1 —
and 0-1-1 in the conference with the
2-2 tie against Fairland.
The Redmen, in fact, scored the
game’s opening seven markers — as
Gallia Academy averted a shutout
with only three minutes remaining.
Ian Hill had the late goal for Gallia
Academy, as Emmanual Valadez collected the assist.
Otherwise, it was all Rock Hill
from the 24-minute mark of the opening half on.
Aguilera, a junior, got the Redmen
on the board at the 23:11 mark of the
ﬁrst half, then made it 3-0 with four
minutes remaining in the period.
In both instances, Jake Blagg
recorded the assist —as Aguilera
scored his second goal with 12:19
left in the ﬁrst on a penalty kick.
The PK resulted from a Blue Devil
handball call in the box.
Aguilera continued his personal
onslaught in the second half, scoring
an unassisted tally only two minutes
and 44 seconds in for a commanding
4-0 Redmen advantage.
Blagg then scored the next two
Rock Hill goals — and only two minutes and 14 seconds apart for the 6-0
cushion.
His ﬁrst was at the 29:53 point off
a Parker Knipp assist, as Jasson Aguilera assisted on the second score at
the 28:39 juncture.
Jasson Aguilera rounded out the
Redmen scoring with an unassisted
goal with 22 minutes to play.
While the Blue Devils did control
possession prior to the scoring barrage, they couldn’t quite get the nec-

essary goal that might have altered
the outcome early on.
The ﬁrst 15 minutes of the match
was played primarily between the
goalboxes, but quickly became dominated in the Blue Devils’ defensive
half and even third.
That’s because, in part, the Redmen had a stranglehold on the midﬁeld.
“We owned the possession at the
beginning of the game, we actually
tried to get some offense going, but
we really didn’t get any good shots
on goal. After we got behind at halftime, we tried to bring some of our
stronger players into the midﬁeld to
see what we could do to make happen. We still didn’t win the ball at the
midﬁeld, and when you don’t control
the ball at the midﬁeld, you’re not
going to control the game,” said Gallia Academy coach Cory Camden.
“We’re trying to ﬁnd a combination
that ﬁts in well for that midﬁeld situation.”
The Blue Devils didn’t defend Victor Aguilera well at all, either.
The Redmen doubled up Gallia
Academy in shot attempts, 16-8, and
held a 3-1 advantage in corner kicks.
“We had no answer for (Victor)
Aguilera,” said Camden. “He has a

lot of athletic ability, and even with
my starting defense back there, he
got some good balls through. It’s
going to be a learning experience,
but we still have to grind and get
better.”
The Blue Devils did have two
excellent opportunities to score, but
Rock Hill goalkeeper Kalch Kidd
came up with two tough but quality
point-blank saves.
With GAHS trailing 1-0 at the
18:22 mark, senior Pierce Wilcoxon
won a wild scramble for the ball just
in front of the net, but Kidd snatched
Wilcoxon’s rocket shot from less than
10-feet away.
Then, 17 minutes later, Kidd —
going to his knees to make the stop
— denied Justin Day of a potential
deﬁcit-slicing goal.
Instead, Rock Hill held its 3-0
halftime advantage, and eventually
scored three second-half goals in
an eight-minute span for the insurmountable 7-0 lead.
The Blue Devils will hit the road
for the ﬁrst time this season on Tuesday, when they travel to Jackson for a
now non-league encounter.
