According to Meigs County Sheriff Keith Wood, Steven R. Shuler, 43, of State Route 124, Langsville, was arrested on an outstanding warrant for a failure to appear out of juvenile court. Wood said that at 1:06 p.m. his ofﬁce received a call of shots allegedly ﬁred as a woman ﬂed into a wooded area near the Shuler residence. When deputies arrived on scene they arrested Shuler for the outstanding warrant and conducted a well-being check on a possible injured female in the residence or surrounding area. The female was located and found uninjured. While inside the residence, deputies reportedly located a “clandestine methamphetamine lab.” Methamphetamine technicians were called in to neutralize the alleged lab. Deputies, with the assistance of Meigs County Prosecutor James K. Stanley, secured a search warrant for the residence which was being processed on Monday afternoon. Additional charges are pending according to Wood. Cook ARLINGTON — Marine Corps Gunnery Sgt. Sidney Asa Cook was among 12,000 2nd Marine Division troops that landed on the island of Betio in the Tarawa Atoll of the Gilbert Islands on Nov. 20, 1943. The battle lasted three days. Cook was one of 3,166 Marine casualties, and now, 74 years later, his body has been recovered and will be laid to rest with full military honors. According to a Dec. 30, 1943 article in The Daily Sentinel, Cook’s mother received a telegram stating her son had been killed in action, and that his body was “buried, temporarily, where he fell.” The Marines encountered heavy Japanese resistance on Betio, and Sgt. Cook was among those who fell on the ﬁrst day of what is considered by many to be one of the bloodiest battles of the Paciﬁc arena. Due to heavy casualties and extreme tropical heat, approximately 1,000 U.S. service members, including Cook, were buried in cemeteries on the island. After WWII ended, recovery efforts were conducted on Betio Island by the 604th Quartermaster Graves Registration Company from 1946 and 1947. While many of the battleﬁeld cemeteries were located, at least 500 Marines, including Cook, were not See COOK | 5 Portland man killed in Saturday crash Classic Cars on Bashan Road near Racine.

Beth Sergent | Register The river way of life Tribute to the River offers remembrance, fireworks By Beth Sergent bsergent@aimmediamidwest.com POINT PLEASANT — Those who work, and appreciate, “the river” don’t let a little rain slow them down. Though Friday and Saturday were a bit on the soggy side as the remnants of Hurricane Harvey blew through, the annual Tribute to the River event soldiered on. Organizers welcomed over a dozen sternwheelers, local musical entertainment and 10 kayakers total participating in two divisions as they raced a mile up and back in the Ohio River. Also, AEP’s Dan Elder was docked to welcome visitors for a tour of working towboat. “Tribute” then ended in a ﬁreworks ﬁnale which did not disappoint, according to many who attended. Besides educating the public on the culture and commerce of river life in the area, the event hosts a memorial service for deceased river men and women who held jobs as deckhands, cooks, pilots, captains and more.

The Dayton Daily News reports city ofﬁcials began assessing what they would do after the court decision in late July and subsequently decided on 10 ﬁxed cameras at ﬁve locations. Dayton and other Ohio cities shuttered their ﬁxed trafﬁc cameras in 2015 after the state Legislature passed a law requiring police ofﬁcers to be present when camera tickets are issued. Dayton challenged the restriction in court, arguing that accidents and fatalities rose after cameras were turned off. State warns of scammers COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Health ofﬁcials are warning Ohioans of callers posing as state health department staff to get personal information the department would never seek over the phone. The Ohio Department of Health says the scammers use caller ID technology to make it appear they are calling from a credible phone number. They sometimes say they are calling on behalf of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or on behalf of a health care provider. The callers often have some personal information about those they are calling, such as name, date of birth, address and the name of the person’s physician. Anyone getting such a suspicious call should never provide personal information, but hang up and call the named agency or company for veriﬁcation. The State Highway Patrol is investigating. Citizen group plans to fight waste facility PIKETON, Ohio (AP) — A newly formed citizen group pledges to ﬁght federal plans to store contaminated waste in southern Ohio from the cleanup of a Cold War-era uranium plant. The Chillicothe Gazette reports (http://ohne.ws/2wXr782 ) more than 100 people gathered for a recent meeting of the Citizens Against Radioactive Dump. The group opposes a plan by the Department of Energy to create an on- site disposal facility at the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant. Federal ofﬁcials say the facility would save money for the cleanup of low-level waste. However, an environmental report commissioned by the village of Piketon says there is cracked bedrock in the area and waste would put groundwater at risk. Both the citizen group and Piketon ofﬁcials are critical of the U.S. Energy Department. No representatives from the department attended the meeting. Jerry Springer mulls Ohio governor run CINCINNATI (AP) — Jerry Springer has stepped out for a Labor Day parade in Cleveland as he mulls a run for Ohio governor. The 73-year-old tabloid TV host appeared at a parade and rally Monday supporting union rights and a $15 minimum wage. The Democrat was joined by health care workers, librarians, security guards and other members of the Service Employees International Union. Ohio jail inmate dies after altercation AKRON, Ohio (AP) — An investigation is underway after an Ohio jail inmate died following an altercation with sheriff’s deputies. The Summit County Medical Examiner says inmate Anthony Jones died Saturday night. The 36-year-old Jones was hospitalized after the Friday morning incident in a secure part of the county jail. Bill Holland, spokesman for the Summit County Sheriff’s Ofﬁce, tells the Akron Beacon Journal (http://bit. ly/2gEiN5W ) two deputies sustained minor injuries. The paper says Jones was arrested Aug. 7 in Akron on eight charges, six of which involved the illegal handling of weapons or ﬁrearms. Jones was accused of ﬁring a gun into two Akron homes. Amazon project receives tax credit NORTH RANDALL, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio board has approved an estimated $7.8 million tax credit for Amazon as the e-commerce giant plans a new fulﬁllment center outside of Cleveland that could employ 2,000 people. The Plain Dealer reports the Ohio Tax Credit Authority signed off on a 1.35 percent, 10-year tax credit Wednesday in Columbus. The credit would go toward an 855,000-square foot (79,431-square meter) building in North Randall, where workers will pack and ship Amazon products. The building is set to open in 2018. State ofﬁcials say the authority on Wednesday also approved a 1.39 percent, 10-year tax credit for a smaller Amazon project in Monroe in southwest Ohio. The state says Amazon expects that project to create an estimated 1,000 fulltime jobs. Amazon hasn’t made an announcement about that facility. 60720833 TUESDAY EVENING Court weighs 1st Amendment challenge to Ohio HIV assault law COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio law requiring HIV-infected individuals to tell sexual partners of their status before having sex or risk criminal charges is unconstitutionally based on outmoded stigmas against the gay community and doesn’t take into consideration current survival rates for people with HIV, say lawyers challenging the law in a case before the state Supreme Court. Ohio’s HIV assault law also violates free speech rights because it focuses only on disclosure, not the actual transmission of the disease, say attorneys arguing against the law on behalf of an Ohio man convicted of failing to tell his girlfriend he had HIV after they started having sex. Breaking the law is considered a felonious assault with a possible prison sentence of up to eight years. “The targeting of HIV and no other chronic illnesses reinforces the notion that HIV is a death sentence, which does not reﬂect the medical reality of HIV,” Raymond Faller, a public defender representing defendant Orlando Batista, said in a court ﬁling last year. The law discourages people from getting tested for HIV, since individuals can’t be prosecuted if they don’t know their status, Faller said. There’s also evidence showing people take sexual risks with partners despite knowing they’re HIV positive. Focusing on sexual transmission ignores the other ways HIV can be transmitted, including by needles, Faller said. “It is akin to trying to end wars by banning swords,” he said. Prosecutors argue the law upholds a compelling state interest in discouraging exposure to and spread of an incurable disease. Christopher E.

That’s exactly what VenezueAndres lan President Nicolas Maduro is Oppenheimer hoping for. Maduro would love Contributing to see the Pope reiterate his columnist calls for a “national dialogue” to solve Venezuela’s political and economic crisis. It would help Venezuela’s strongman drive international attention away from his latest steps to turn his country into a full-blown dictatorship. In recent weeks, Maduro has effectively killed the country’s National Assembly, which the opposition had won by a landslide despite widespread government dirty tricks in 2015 legislative elections. Maduro created his own super-Congress, which he calls the Constituent Assembly, whose hand-picked legislators have the power to rewrite the Constitution and to supersede the democratically-elected National Assembly. One of the ﬁrst steps by Maduro’s Constituent Assembly was to order the ﬁring of Venezuela’s attorney general, Luisa Ortega, a former government supporter who denounced the assembly as unconstitutional. She has since ﬂed the country. In addition, the Constituent Assembly has launched an investigation into National Assembly President Julio Borges, an opposition leader, for allegedly encouraging U.S. ﬁnancial sanctions against Venezuela and its leaders. The National Assembly and the former attorney general were Venezuela’s last remaining independent institutions. The Vatican has been partly responsible for Maduro’s slow-motion coup. For more than a year, while more than 120 people died and hundreds were wounded and arrested in street protests, Francis called for peace, instead of denouncing Maduro’s systematic violations of the constitution and his termination of the last vestiges of democracy. Early this year, Francis made things worse when he failed to explicitly criticize Maduro’s public vow to convene his Constituent Assembly. For ﬁve months, Francis failed to join Latin American countries, the European Union and the United States in demanding that Maduro call off his plans to create his Constituent Assembly. Francis only did that on Aug. 4, the very day that Maduro inaugurated the assembly. But it was too little, too late. Previously, Francis had backed a disastrous mediation mission in Venezuela, led by former Spanish President Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, who came across as a Maduro emissary rather than a mediator. The mediation commission, which also had a U.S. blessing, only helped Maduro win time while he was demolishing what was left of Venezuela’s independent institutions. While professing to be negotiating, Maduro took hundreds of political prisoners and closed radio and television stations before moving against the National Assembly and the former attorney general. What should the Pope say about Venezuela during his trip to Colombia? Obviously, he cannot remain mum. Venezuela’s political and economic chaos has created a wave of refugees into Colombia, which is making banner headlines there. Up to 25,000 Venezuelans cross over to the Colombian border town of Cucuta every day to buy basic foodstuffs, and many of them stay in Colombia to escape from rising violence and an estimated 720 percent annual inﬂation rate, the world’s highest. This exodus has driven Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos to step up his criticism of Maduro, whom he had once called “my new friend” and now calls a dictator. In Colombia, the Pope should build on his Aug. 4 statement about Venezuela, in which he called for “creating the conditions for a negotiated solution” in Venezuela. The Pope should say without ambiguity that to meet such conditions, Maduro must allow an independent electoral tribunal so that Venezuelans can have free and fair elections, free the nearly 600 political prisoners, scrap the Constituent Assembly and restore the constitutional powers of the opposition majority National Assembly. “Pope Francis needs to make things right after having involved himself in a failed negotiation,” says Carlos Vecchio, an exile political leader of Venezuela’s Voluntad Popular party. “He has a pending debt with Venezuela.” Francis should spell out the concrete steps for Maduro to start a process that can lead to free and fair elections in Venezuela. Anything else will be a tacit endorsement of Maduro’s moves to grab absolute power.

THEIR VIEW Mighty Mercury’s message The text said, “(kill).” I read it to my friend over brunch, and granted the shrimp and grits were to die for, but I wouldn’t have really killed for them. “It’s from my webmaster,” I say to Vicki, texting him back and knowing he won’t have a clue how I got the message—and sure enough, he didn’t. He wasn’t even near his phone. “Weird,” my friend says. “Even the parenthesis were correct. I got a text last night from a friend that said ‘jin.’ She didn’t send it either.” “Add another ‘N,’ and it means spirit,” I say, wondering if a message from another realm was saying “kill spirit,” and if so was it in a positive context as in “Let the ego die,” or in a negative one like “Squash your triumphant, divine inspiration.” A sense of foreboding prompted me to say a silent prayer for protection from whatever had sent it. I don’t know where the message originated, but my gut told me it wasn’t good. Feeling protected, I dove back into my savory bowl in front of from me to her. me.

A time to recalculate the checkbook, to rekindle an old friendship, repair automobiles or reestablish a workout routine. It’s not a time to start a new project or sign an important transaction. By September 21 Mercury will have moved on and out of its shadow. Unlike Punxsutawney Phil whose shadow purportedly determines if winter will last another six weeks, Mercury doesn’t necessarily predict my future, but its presence is noticeably felt more when it’s not moving. Perhaps I should model Mighty Mercury’s example and be still, knowing as did the Byrds who sang about it, for everything—turn, turn, turn.

ROCKSPRINGS, Ohio — St. Clairsville exploded for 19 points in a 2:26 span in the second period, allowing the guests to coast to a 47-6 win over the Meigs Marauders Saturday evening before a small, wet, damp crowd at Farmers Bank Stadium in Meigs County. Two lost fumbles ﬁgured into the equation as the Marauder offense had trouble all evening getting things rolling. The Red Devils held the Marauders to only three ﬁrst downs, 13 yards rushing and 73 total yards of offense. After a scoreless ﬁrst period, the Red Devils scored with 11:15 left when Craig Bober pulled in a 10-yard pass from Dustin Carrothers. Matt Greenwood made the extra point for a 7-0 Red Devil lead. Two plays later, the Marauders fumbled and the Red Devils recovered at the Meigs 13. Four plays later, Carrothers kept it on a quarterback sneak for a 13-0 St. Clairsville advantage. The Red Devils made short work off a short Meigs punt, taking over at their own 35, Carrothers founds J. Heatherington over the middle for 65 yards and the score. Less than two minutes later, the Red Devil explosion continued as Aaron Jordan scored from 11 yards out. A successful extra point made it 27-0. The SCHS lead grew to 34-0 when Carrothers hit Bober from 19 yards out with just 20 seconds left in the half. A 63-yard run by Luke Watt made it a 41-0 lead just two minutes in the second half, which was played with a running clock. Meigs scored with 4:48 left in the third period when Zach Bartrum caught a two-yard pass from Cory Cox. The Red Devils made the ﬁnal 47-6 with 11:07 left in the contest when Kenya Robinson scored from 28 yards out.

Blue Devils rout River Valley, 49-7 By Paul Boggs pboggs@aimmediamidwest.com BIDWELL, Ohio — First, the “team in town” added one of River Valley’s top players. Now, as of late Saturday night, the Blue Devils returned to Gallipolis with the Ohio Valley Bank Community Bowl Trophy. That’s because, in perhaps surprisingly dominating fashion, the Gallia Academy High School football team routed host River Valley — capturing a 49-7 victory in the third annual OVB Community Bowl matchup. Both clubs are now 1-1, but the Blue Devils snapped a two-game losing streak against the archrival Raiders. As a result, the Blue and White — often referred to in Raider country as ‘the team in town’ — will own the OVB Community Bowl Trophy for the next year. In addition, the convincing win was the ﬁrst for ﬁrst-year Gallia Academy head coach Alex Penrod, as he took over a Blue Devil program that had fallen on hard times with back-to-back 1-9 campaigns. Last week, the Blue Devils nearly knocked off host Meigs — but fell in the ﬁnal 22 seconds by a count of 14-8. On Saturday, GAHS simply rolled the Raiders, scoring the contest’s ﬁnal 41 points while amassing 475 rushing yards on one attempt shy of an even 50. In fact, the Blue Devils — which never trailed — doubled up the Raiders in rushing tries 49-24, as four backs ﬁnished with at least 78 yards on at least three carries. For Penrod and the entire GAHS program, Saturday night was a satisfying and gratifying moment. The entire squad, along with the coaching staff and cheerleaders, stood proudly on the podium to receive the OVB Community Bowl Trophy for the ﬁrst time. “It’s extremely exciting for this whole team and program and community. For these six seniors, they’ve had two opportunities before and weren’t able to get the win, so this was their last go-round. That’s who we were playing for the most,” said Penrod. “They knew who our opponent was tonight and the fact they’ve had their number the last two years. They made sure our guys were ready and executed the gameplan. I wouldn’t consider this an easy victory, because we had to ﬁght for everything. It’s just when you prepare and execute what you want, sometimes results happen like this. Our kids were prepared and we made some adjustments. I’m very proud of our kids.” For junior Jacob Campbell, who transferred from River Valley to Gallia Academy, he is the only player on either side to have been on the winning team in all three meetings. The Raiders won 20-7 last season after a 27-13 triumph two years ago, as Campbell claimed allSoutheast District Division V ﬁrst-team honors as a linebacker last year. As expected, Campbell carried a bulk of the workload for the Blue Devils — rushing for 189 yards and a massive ﬁve touchdowns on only 15 Gallia Academy’s Boo Pullins (29) fights off a River Valley tackle during Saturday night’s non-league football game at River Valley High School. carries. In fact, all ﬁve touchdowns came in the game’s ﬁnal 31 minutes — as he scored all four of Gallia Academy’s second half TDs. His 1-yard run made it 14-7 in favor of the Blue Devils just three minutes into the second quarter, then he dashed for touchdowns of 22, 36, 33 and 11 yards in a matter of 11-and-a-half minutes. His 22-yard scamper and two-point conversion run, just 44 seconds into the second half, started to put the game out of reach at 30-7. His sprint of half that distance, only 13 seconds into the fourth quarter, made it 49-7 with an explanation point. “It’s an extreme honor to see a young man like Jacob that’s had to persevere through so many obstacles right now between the two schools to have the kind of game that he did,” said Penrod. “He has a new team and a new band brothers and he is right with us. We’re riding on his back right now.” Indeed, the Blue Devils rode Campbell’s back — part of putting a proverbial foot to the Raiders’ backsides. “You have to give all the credit to their players and coaching staff because they kicked our butts,” said RVHS coach Jerrod Sparling. “There are things we didn’t do well that’s probably our own doing, but they kicked out butts. Their kids made plays and ours didn’t. We were on the ﬁeld way too long defensively and on the ﬁeld way too short offensively. Both of those groups are at fault.” The Raiders committed three turnovers and punted four times, but See DEVILS | 7 �SPORTS Daily Sentinel Tuesday, September 5, 2017 7 Gallia Academy rolls past Lady Raiders By Alex Hawley sweep with a 25-12 triahawley@aimmediamidwest.com umph in the third game.

Both teams return to action on Tuesday, with the Lady Raiders hosting Jackson in non-league play and the Blue Angels welcoming Portsmouth for an Ohio Valley Conference showdown. Unions refuse to hold flag at Browns opener CLEVELAND (AP) — Members of unions representing Cleveland police ofﬁcers and paramedics have said they won’t hold a large U.S. ﬂag during pregame ceremonies prior to next Sunday’s Cleveland Browns season opener after a group of Browns players knelt during the national anthem before a preseason game last month. Steve Loomis, president of the Cleveland Police Patrolmen’s Association, cited his service in the U.S. Navy when he told WKYC-TV he was astounded that Browns management knew of the protests but allowed it to occur. “I am not going to participate or work with management that allows their players to disrespect the ﬂag and the national anthem,” Loomis said. Nearly a dozen Browns players knelt in a circle and prayed in silent protest during the anthem before a preseason home game Aug. 21 against the New York Giants. A smaller group of players placed hands on the shoulders of their kneeling teammates. A team spokesman issued a statement at Meigs From page 6 The Red Devils rushed for 261 yards on the evening, with Luke Devils From page 6 a critical turnover on downs truly swung the game. Trailing 14-7 at the 9:07 mark of the second stanza, River Valley crafted a seven-play, 48-yard, three-minute drive down to the GAHS 4-yard line. But the march stalled out on a 4th-and-1 when the Raiders fumbled — but didn’t have the necessary yardage to pick up the ﬁrst down anyway. Aside from River Valley’s scoring drive — which spanned four minutes, 10 plays and 57 yards in the ﬁrst quarter and was capped off by Gabe Stapleton’s 10-yard touchdown run — not much went right for the halftime that said the organization has a “profound respect” for the national anthem, the U.S. ﬂag and those who serve in the military. “We feel it’s important for our team to join in this great tradition and special moment of recognition, at the same time we also respect the great liberties afforded by our country, including the freedom of personal expression,” the statement said. Dan Nemeth, president of the Cleveland Association of Rescue Employees Local 1975, said he had a similar reaction to Loomis’. Watt leading the way with 68 on two tries. Carrothers was 6-of-9 in the air for 132 yards. Bober had four catches for 52 yards, while Heatherington had two for 80. Mathew Brown led Meigs with six carries for 19 yards, Cox was Raiders. “In the ﬁrst half, we did everything we could to shoot ourselves in the foot. We fumbled the opening kickoff, we misﬁt on a couple of things after we had some stuffs. We weren’t very effective in third down. It wasn’t because we weren’t in position to make plays or we didn’t know what was coming at us. We just, for some reason, didn’t do what we’re accustomed to doing,” said Sparling. “The red zone trip, where it was fourth down, that’s something we have to execute instead of putting the ball on the ground.” Instead, the Blue Devils responded with a colossal six-minute, 16-play, 96-yard scoring drive — featuring six ﬁrst downs and all but two plays coming on the ground. He told Cleveland.com he served in the U.S. Marine Corps and ﬁnds it “hypocritical” for Browns management to say they support the military while allowing players to kneel during the anthem. “When I was growing up, we were taught to stand every morning, put our hands over our hearts and say the Pledge of Allegiance,” Nemeth said. “And when we did that, we typically had someone holding the ﬂag in front of the class. For them to disrespect the ﬂag by taking a knee did not sit well with me.” 5-of-8 in the air with an interception for 58 yards. Bartrum had three receptions for 50 yards. St. Clairsville (1-1) will return home next to host Meadowbrook, while the Marauders (1-1) travel to Logan. Gallia Academy mixed its runs between Boo Pullins and quarterback Justin McClelland, as McClelland — on 4thand-4 — ran in from eight yards out with 13 seconds left before halftime. With Campbell’s extrapoint run, the Blue Devils’ lead stood at 22-7. “That was textbook right there,” said Penrod. “Getting that score right before the half and going up two possessions and knowing we get the football to start the second half, we had them (Raiders) right where we wanted them.” Besides the fourth down conversion for the touchdown, the Blue Devils converted three third downs, including McClelland picking up 19 yards to the 14 to convert 3rd-and-16. Gallia Academy also beneﬁted from a 15-yard personal foul penalty on the Raiders. “We had a couple of chances to get off the ﬁeld in that drive, and back them up and really swing the ﬁeld position. We just didn’t do it,” said Sparling. Besides Campbell, Pullins — who opened the scoring with a 54-yard dart at the 6:20 mark of the opening quarter — posted 103 yards on 14 totes, while McClelland carried 11 times for 78 yards. “We were going to run the football and that’s what we did.

Stapleton paced the Raiders with 55 yards on eight carries, while quarterback Patrick Brown completed 13-of-20 passes for 131 yards. Layne Fitch ﬁnished with four receptions for 61 yards, and Jarret McCarley three for 47, including a 26-yarder near the end of the ﬁrst half to put the Raiders into Blue Devil territory. For River Valley, which must bounce back against visiting and surprising South Point (2-0) on Friday night, Sparling put the loss into perspective for his seniors. “This game is a lot of fun for both communities, and it’s a lot of fun to play in and coach in. We didn’t get the result we wanted tonight, but these seniors can go out and say they were 2-1 in this rivalry game,” he said. Speaking of rivalries, Gallia Academy hosts another in Jackson on Friday, but certainly savored Saturday night’s win. “We’re getting a trophy tonight and we’re beating our rival, so it’s pretty awesome,” said Penrod.

The Point Pleasant cross country program had only ﬁve runners attend the ultra-competitive St. Mary’s Medical Center Festival, but the quintet did put together some positive results Saturday in the annual meet held at Cabell Midland High School. The Black Knights had four of the ﬁve local competitors at the event, but neither squad had enough entrants to record a team score in either Class AA race. There were 30 teams and 220 competitors in the AA boys race, while the AA girls event featured 22 teams and 180 individual racers. PPHS junior Luke Wilson — who set a new school record just one week ago by winning the Ripley Covered Bridge meet — upped his new personal best mark to 17:08. Wilson’s new Point record, however, only resulted in an 11th place ﬁnish. Ethan Scott was next with a time of 20:59, good enough for a 147th place ﬁnish. Isaac Daniels (21:53) and Tanner Durst (24:17) also earned respective placings of 168th and 202nd. Aaron Withrow of Winﬁeld won the boys race with a time of 16:26, while Brody Gorrell of St. Marys had a runner-up effort of 16:37. Lexington Christian came away with AA boys team trophy with a winning tally of 146. Ritchie County was the runner-up with 148 points and Bridgeport was third with 152 points. Allison Henderson was the lone Lady Knight to compete Saturday in the AA girls race, which landed a 35th place ﬁnish with a mark of 22:12. Erykah Christopher of East Fairmont was the AA girls champion with a time of 19:53. Desirae Schoonover of Doddridge County was the runnerup with a mark of 20 minutes even. Bridgeport was the AA girls team champion with 96 points. Winﬁeld (99) and Williamstown (146) rounded out the top three spots.

Marian, MVNU upend Rio By Randy Payton For Ohio Valley Publishing JACKSON, Ohio — The early season struggles of the University of Rio Grande volleyball team continued on Saturday, as the RedStorm dropped straight sets decisions to Marian (Ind.) University and Mount Vernon Nazarene University in the ﬁnal round of the Emileigh Cooper Memorial Tournament at Jackson High School. Rio fell to Marian by scores of 25-25, 25-12, 25-20 and lost to MVNU 25-21, 25-18, 25-20. The losses, which came to the two teams who ﬁnished the twoday event unbeaten, ran Rio’s losing streak to ﬁve consecutive matches and left the RedStorm at 1-8 for the season. Sophomore Patricia Dennis (Celina, OH) led Rio at the net in the loss to Marian, tallying seven kills. Freshmen Ashton Ward (Chillicothe, OH) and Ryanne Stoffel (Englewood, OH) had 10 assists each, while Stoffel added a teamhigh 13 digs in a losing cause. Marian’s balanced attack at the net - the Knights had four players with ﬁve or more kills - was led by Kacee Salyers’ eight kills. Julie Hoying had 17 assists and Madi Heffron added 15 of her own for the Knights, who were among the teams who received votes but narrowly missed the NAIA preseason coaches’ Top 25 poll. Salyers also ﬁnished with nine service aces in the win, while Vanessa Lay had 15 digs. Senior Aleah Pelphrey (Piketon, OH) had a team-best eight kills and 12 digs in the loss to Mount Vernon Nazarene, while freshman Carly Shriver (Gallipolis, OH) and Stoffel tallied 14 and 13 assists, respectively. Dennis had two solo blocks and two block assists in a losing cause for the RedStorm. Kristen Osburn had 13 kills to go along with 13 digs for the Cougars, while Katelyn Dufur had a matchbest 24 assists and Ashley Gingerich had 19 digs. MVNU also got 12 digs from Casey Bunner and Alyson Near ﬁnished with one solo block and four block assists. Rio Grande will look to end its losing slide on Tuesday night when it hosts Salem (WV) International University in a non-conference tilt. Match time is slated for 7 p.m. Randy Payton is the Sports Information Director at the University of Rio Grande. No. 21 Hokies beat No. 22 WVU, 31-24 LANDOVER, Maryland (AP) — Virginia Tech made FedEx Field feel like Lane Stadium Northeast and got to bring that Black Diamond Trophy back to Blacksburg for the ﬁrst time in more than a decade. Oh, and the Hokies’ new quarterback looks like a keeper, too. Josh Jackson passed for 235 yards, ran for 101 and accounted for two touchdowns in his ﬁrst start for Virginia Tech, and the No. 21 Hokies made a last-second stand to beat No. 22 West Virginia 31-24 on Sunday night. The 52nd meeting between the Appalachian region rivals was the ﬁrst since 2005. It ended up being a classic. The Hokies rushed the ﬁeld after their defense held the Mountaineers out of the end zone on two last plays from the 15, and their fans screamed along to Metallica’s “Enter Sandman” to celebrate. “This was a fantastic win,” Virginia Tech safety Terrell Edmunds said with a huge grin. Jackson, the redshirt freshman who won a three-way competition for the job, was up and down with his passing, but showed off some nifty moves running in the opener for both teams. “I felt calm,” said Jackson, the son of former longtime Michigan assistant coach Fred Jackson. Josh Jackson’s 46-yard keeper up the middle — which ended with him taking a hard low hit — set up Travon McMillian’s 3-yard touchdown run that put Virginia Tech up 31-24 with 6:30 left. “I felt that one pretty good,” Jackson said about the hit. Jackson said he read a blitz on that play and the Mountaineers gave him all kinds of room inside. “That was a bad, bad call by me,” West Virginia defensive coordinator Tony Gibson said. West Virginia’s new quarterback was just as impressive. Florida trans- fer Will Grier, who left Gainesville after being suspended by the NCAA for failing a test for performance-enhancing drugs in 2015, pass for 371 yards and three touchdowns. He got one more chance to tie after usually reliable Virginia Tech kicker Joey Slye missed a 32-yard ﬁeld-goal attempt with 1:55 left. Grier slinged and scrambled West Virginia down to the Virginia Tech 15. Hokies coach Justin Fuente used a timeout before the last two plays because he was worried his defense was getting gassed chasing the shaggy-haired quarterback.

New Lexington, with a team score of 332, landed the team championship — followed by runner-up Piketon (345) and thirdplace Logan Elm (351). Host Westfall (370) clipped Circleville (376) for fourth, while Vinton County (381) edged out Zane Trace (389) for sixth.

Kolten Foraker and Trey Givens of New Lexington both shot 76, while Evan Huffman of Logan Elm amounted an 81. Tying Thomas with an 87 was Brayton Felger of Westfall, while Piketon’s trio of Colton Blakeman (82), Brandon Wooldridge (84) and Jamie Clifford (86) were right ahead of them. The 10th member of the all-tournament unit was Vinton County’s Bailey Bartoe with an 88.

(AP) — Denny Hamlin overcame a bad miss of the pit road entrance to chase down Martin Truex Jr. and win the Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway on Sunday night. Hamlin checked up after sliding by the entrance with 54 laps left and fell behind Truex by 20 seconds. But Hamlin slowly reeled in Truex and passed him with three laps left when his rival brushed the wall and got a ﬂat tire. Hamlin swept throwback weekend at Darlington after winning the Xﬁnity race Saturday. Truex won the ﬁrst two stages, clinching NASCAR’s regular-season championship and gaining the No. 1 seed heading into the playoffs in two weeks. Kyle Busch was second, followed by brother Kurt Busch, Austin Dil- lon and Erik Jones. Hamlin led 124 laps and looked as if he was easily on the way to a second Southern 500 after winning in 2010. Then inexplicably, Hamlin missed the entrance and seemingly threw the race to the ever-steady Truex. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
