People were out on the Purple People Bridge July 1, the fi rst day it was partially open after being closed for six weeks after a stone fell from the bridge onto a pier. The bridge was closed May 11 after a large stone fell from the bridge into the fi rst pier on the Cincinnati side and created a safety hazard. Offi cials said other stones were also loosened as well. Access onto the pedestrian-only bridge spanning the Ohio River has been restored via the Newport side. A barrier to keep people from entering or exiting the bridge on the Cincinnati side. An engineering survey showed that the damage to the bridge was confi ned to the approach to the former automobile bridge on the Cincinnati side, and not to the bridge itself, said Jack Moreland, who retired as president of Newport Southbank Bridge Company and Southbank Partners. It's unclear what caused the damage, Moreland said. The bridge company is talking with two or three local companies that could potentially be selected to repair the damaged portion, he said. The oldest part of the bridge struc-

Emily DeLetter Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

As a number of species of birds around Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky have been found sick and dying from an unidentiﬁ ed illness, experts are asking for the public's help. Symptoms of the illness can include eye swelling and crusty discharge, neurological signs, and in some cases, sunken-in eyes. The illness has been found in Blue Jays, Common Grackles and European starlings, American Robins and potentially House Sparrows While the cause of this illness is still being determined, people are asked to temporarily stop feeding birds and clean bird feeders and bird baths with a 10% bleach cleaning solution.

Kentucky The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources have found reports of sick or dead birds in multiple counties, including Jeﬀ erson, Kenton and Boone counties. People who spot a sick bird can report it at research.net/ r/2021KYSickBirdReports.

Astronaut shares photo of Cincinnati from space station Brook Endale Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A shot of the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport from space is circulating on Twitter after a NASA astronaut used the picture to give the airport a shoutout. Astronaut Shane Kimbrough is currently in space as Commander of the NASA SpaceX Crew-2 mission to the International Space Station. The mission launched in April 2021 and will return sometime in the fall. Kimbrough tweeted "Hello to the Cincinnati tri-state area! I snapped a clear shot of the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport from space! It’s currently the 7th busiest airport in the U.S. by cargo traﬃ c and is additionally the fastest-growing cargo airport in North America." Many people excitedly remarked on how amazing the shot was and pointed to other Cincinnati landmarks they could view from the pictures. Some said they could see their house, and others said they could see part of the Brent Spence Bridge and the new TQL Stadium. Cincinnati-based Procter & Gamble also reacted to Kimbrough's tweet, writing, "Hey Shane! How's it going up

Gere’s how much pandemic slashed back-ups here Briana Rice Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Greater Cincinnati drivers spent a lot less time in traﬃ c during the pandemic. In fact, a new study from the Texas A&M Transportation Institute found that driving delays in Cincinnati were cut in half during 2020. Cincinnati ranked 47th in the coun-

try for traffi c delays, alongside Denver, Indianapolis, Charleston, New Orleans, Rochester and Poughkeepsie-Newburgh, New Jersey. In these cities, drivers spent 26 hours stuck in traffi c in 2020. In 2019, drivers spent 52 hours stuck in traffi c in Cincinnati. The rankings are based on the total number of hours drivers were delayed.

The Cincinnati region spent 28,436 stuck in traffi c in 2020. Because most of the country was on lockdown during the pandemic, many commuters found themselves working from home. Fewer traffi c snarls and crashes were reported and incidents were spread out as rush-hour commuters no longer needed to travel. The top fi ve areas and hours were:

Crossing the Roebling? How you can get to know iconic bridge as you stroll Sarah Brookbank Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Bridge Continued from Page 1A

ture, on the north side, was built as a railroad bridge by the Little Miami Railroad, according to a history from Newport Southbank Bridge Company. The railroad bridge opened in 1972, was later sold to and used by the Louisville and Nashville Railroad. A bridge span on the south side of the structure was later built next to the railroad bridge on the south side. The southern span, which people walk on now, was long used by automobiles and maintained by the Commonwealth of Kentucky. The bridge was closed to automobiles permanently in 2001. The center walkway between the two spans was once used by streetcars. L&N successor CSX, one of the largest railroad companies in the U.S., donated the railroad bridge to the city of Newport in 2004. The city then transferred the railroad bridge to the Newport Southbank Bridge Company. Editor’s note: Information included reﬂ ects this article’s original publication date – July 1.

The Covington-Cincinnati Suspension Bridge Committee has launched new virtual tours, based on the in-person informational tours it has given in the past. As you walk, you can learn about the history, construction and engineering behind the famous bridge. QR codes have been posted along the bridge. Walkers can scan them with smartphones and will be taken to the tour pages on the roeblingbridge.org website. There are three tour stations along the bridge for those heading north or south. The stations include the anchor houses, the towers and the midspan. "During each tour, which lasts less than three minutes, narrator Dave Akers shares old photos, along with drawings and new photos, that explain details of the bridge’s structure. He also explains the changes that have been made to the bridge since it was opened for use in 1867," according to the Covington-Cincinnati Suspension Bridge Committee.

We will ill assist sist you iin hand handling your insurance in claims clai with most major auto insurances companies. BEEN IN A COLLISION? WHAT ARE YOU ENTITLED TO? After an auto collision it is important to know what you are entitled to. Often insurance company adjusters will not tell you everything you are entitled to in order to save the company money and it is one of the reasons why you need to update your car insurance policy. They will also generally try to convince you to have the damage repairs completed at a shop that is on their “preferred list”, citing that the insurance company has “approved” the shop and “guarantee” the repairs.These insurance company / body shop agreements only exist for the beneﬁt of the insurance company to save them money. This often results in lower quality repairs that can lead to problems ranging from cosmetic imperfections to serious structural integrity issues that can lead to problems with the vehicle’s ride, stability control and safety. SELECTION OF BODY SHOP You have the right to have your vehicle repaired at the shop of your choice. It is illegal for an insurance company to steer, force, require or pressure you into using a particular shop. You should never take your vehicle to a body shop based solely on the recommendation of an insurance company. Not even if it is your own insurance company. We recommend that you actually visit the body shop, stand face to face with the body shop manager and be sure he/she understands that they work for you and not the insurance company. Be sure that you are satisﬁed that the shop has the proper equipment, the techs have the proper training, that the shop provides a minimum 5 year warranty on all work performed including paint and that the shop will keep you advised of the progress of the repairs. You should be kept informed of the progress of your vehicle repairs every step of the way, including any supplemental damages found or any issues that arise with the insurance company.

Hot weather speeds up ripening of blueberries Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld Guest columnist

It has been hot here on my little patch of heaven. Yours, too? I’m not complaining though. Hot weather speeds up ripening of a special seasonal fruit: blueberries. I was gifted with a basket of these dark blue orbs.

Blueberries are a super food, packed with antioxidants, potassium and vitamin C. The darker the blueberry, the more health beneﬁ ts it oﬀ ers. Here’s two of my recipe faves using blueberries. One is an updated smaller batch version of a summertime gelatin terrine. A reader asked for the recipe. “I lost the recipe and want to make the terrine for guests,” she said. The other is a yummy, chunky, blueberry syrup/sauce recipe. Better than the pancake restaurants.

Homemade blueberry and citrus syrup/sauce Adding a squeeze of lime or lemon gives this syrup a bit of tartness.

Instructions In a saucepan, whisk together sugar and cornstarch.

Wonderful packed as a gift with pancake mix. Or over vanilla ice cream or lemon sorbet.

Whisk in water. Stir in blueberries and bring to a boil. Cook for a couple of minutes.

Ingredients ⁄ 2 cup sugar

Berries will start to burst.

1 tablespoon cornstarch

Stir in lime or lemon juice. Mixture may not look real thick but thickens as it cools.

⁄ 3 cup cold water

2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries (unthawed)

After it cools, pour into jars and cover. Keeps in refrigerator up to a month or so.

A couple good squeezes of juice from lime or lemon, to taste

Warm up a bit before using for topping on pancakes.

should be incorporated, but not dissolved, into the juice. Pour gelatin mixture into saucepan and add sugar.

For larger batch, double ingredients. If you use wine, you may want to add a bit more sugar, to taste.

Homemade blueberry and citrus syrup/sauce.

Ingredients 2 cups favorite berries – I used sliced strawberries, and blueberries 2 packages unflavored gelatin (two 1/4-oz envelopes) 2 cups bottled white grape juice (100% juice) or white or rose wine ⁄ 2 cup sugar

1 tablespoon or so lemon or lime juice Instructions Arrange fruit in pan. Set aside. Sprinkle gelatin over juice or wine and let sit a few minutes to soften and “bloom.” Whisk gently and the gelatin

Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer and whisk until sugar and gelatin are dissolved. Remove from heat, add citrus juice, and cool, stirring occasionally, to room temperature. Mixture should still be pourable. Gently pour enough mixture over fruit, just enough to cover nicely. This “sets” fruit in a bit of gelatin so it doesn’t float. Chill until ﬁ rm. Pour remaining mixture over fruit (if it jells while it’s sitting, warm up a bit to melt, but let cool before pouring on). To unmold, dip pan in larger pan of hot water for a few seconds to loosen. Run knife around edges. Invert a serving plate over terrine and invert terrine onto plate.

COMMUNITY NEWS For Boone County family, new fund is natural piece of their lifelong Northern Kentucky story FLORENCE, KY – Friends and family members of Sam and Tonya Carlotta, and their son Cameron, raised more than $32,000 in a matter of weeks to launch a new scholarship fund for students attending Cooper High School in Boone County. If enough donations are made, they hope to include scholarships to students at Boone County High School also, their alma mater. The Carlotta Family and Friends Scholarship Fund was created to honor Sam Carlotta, a Northern Kentuckian who lives as an inspiration to those around him, even after sustaining a spinal injury in his teenage years that left him facing a multitude of challenges and procedures to try to gain back some of his mobility and independence. Carlotta dove into a pool at his family’s apartment complex in 1981 and hit his head and neck on an inner tube, leaving him with Brown Sequard Syndrome (BSS), a rare neurological condition which results in weakness or paralysis (hemi paraplegia) on one side of the body and a loss of sensation on the opposite side. Initially, doctors weren’t sure they could fi x Carlotta’s paralysis. However, after a complex procedure to implant a halo in his skull and two cervical fusion surgeries at Good Samaritan Hospital and subsequent long-term occupational and physical therapy, rehabilitation, and additional procedures, Carlotta regained some mobility and function. “Sam has always viewed the challenges resulting from his spinal injury as opportunities for progress and growth,” said longtime friend Keith Noel. “He has never once played the victim regardless of what obstacles were placed before him. He has just always displayed a ‘can do’ attitude and his trademark saying is ‘NBL’ which means Nothing But Love.” Carlotta’s many friends have remained a big part of his life, with the group getting together every year for “SamFest” in December for a chance to catch up over old stories. His wife Tonya, too, has been by his side nearly his whole life, with the two originally meeting as students at Ockerman Junior High School in Florence, Tonya two years younger than Sam. The pair started dating in high school and have been married for many years, now living in Union with their son Cameron. “I never imagined that I would one day marry the guy I went to my very fi rst school dance with,” said Tonya Carlotta. “But here we are almost 45 years later! Life can change in the blink of an eye and through it all we’ve been blessed tremendously. Carlotta’s friends decided to surprise him on June 12 of this year through a route that would seem somewhat normal to Sam- a SamFest, but in summer since they had to skip the party in December 2020 due to the pandemic. When he arrived to his home that evening from another family party, he was greeted by a large group of friends and family who had fi lled his driveway and nearby sidewalks. A group of his closest friends and family presented him with the “big check,” which totaled $32,300 to launch a new scholarship fund for Cooper High School students in Boone County. “For those who know me, know that I am rarely at a loss for words,” said Sam Carlotta. “After the presentation, a few were yelling ‘Speech!’, but I could not formulate a thought because I felt so overwhelmed and humbled by the experience. I can’t thank my friends and family enough for this gesture but more importantly, the impact it can have on young adults moving on the next phase of their lives.” Carlotta has been deeply involved with Cooper High School since Cameron started school there in 2008, the school’s fi rst year open. With Cameron involved in baseball and football, Sam began to volunteer with the teams. He has remained committed for so long that the baseball team now presents a Sam Carlotta Inspiration Award each year, and Sam leads many of the team’s fundraising eff orts. As much as he loves the athletics, he says his real passion is for the kids, and watching them grow through the years. They talk to him about how school is going and what their future plans are, and Sam gets to meet their parents and other coaches in their lives. The athletics team at Cooper also presented Carlotta with a reserved space on the school campus’ parking lot from which Carlotta can comfortably watch football games without needing to navigate through the crowds- he endearingly calls it his private suite. The Carlotta family looks forward to seeing the scholarships support students in whatever they choose as their post-secondary education, whether through trade school, community col-

I think all students should be involved in as many school activities as possible which includes sports, band, choir, academic teams, etc. They build relationships/ friendships that will last a lifetime and that is priceless. If I can inspire just one student-athlete to make a positive change or set a goal and reach it, this has been worth every second. Look at the relationships I’ve built and what this tremendous group of people have done for my family and our community. I’ve had a tremendous support system since my spinal cord injury in 1981. My family and friends have been with me through it all. I cannot thank them enough for that. I only have one thing for them all. NBL!” “This is another uniquely Northern Kentucky story that translates to a legacy of giving that will support our local students for years to come,” said Horizon Community Funds President Nancy Grayson. “Friends coming together, then assembling a larger group of community supporters, to lift students in the name of a person they deeply admire and respect is a story that moves us all.

Communications projects are one of the hallmarks for 4-H youth development. Many alumni credit these projects with helping them overcome their fear of public speaking and developing into more eﬀ ective communicators and leaders. State 4-H Communications Day is the culmination of a yearlong communications project. These projects require youth to research, write, practice, and deliver a Farley speech, demonstration, or mock job interview. It is the highlight of the program. Contestants who compete during the event received the Champion award during their area communications contests. The day gives them the chance to compete for statewide recognition. Like in 2020, the 2021 contest will be held virtually as 4-H continues to monitor the eﬀ ects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

OH residents scramble to get last Walking Liberty Rolls

Once Ohio residents got wind that Ohio State Restricted Bank Rolls filled with Silver Walking Liberties dating back to the early 1900’s were being handed over, there was a mad dash to get them. That’s because some of these U.S. Gov’t issued silver coins are already worth hundreds in collector value. “It’s like a run on the banks. The phones are ringing off the hook. That’s because everyone is trying to get them before they’re all gone,” according to officials at the National Mint and Treasury who say they can barely keep up with all the orders. In fact, they had to impose a strict limit of 4 Ohio State Restricted Bank Rolls. So, if you get the chance to get your hands on these State Restricted Bank Rolls you better hurry because hundreds of Ohio residents already have and you don’t want to miss out. You see, the U.S. Gov’t stopped mint-

ing these Silver Walking Liberties in 1947 and there can never be any more which makes them extremely collectible. And here’s the best part. The rolls are unsearched so there’s no telling how much they could be worth in collector value. That’s why at just the $39 state minimum set by National Mint and Treasury it’s a deal too good to pass up. But you better hurry because these Ohio State Restricted Bank Rolls are the only ones known to exist and Ohio residents are grabbing them up as fast as they can. That’s because they make amazing gifts for children, grandchildren and loved ones. Just imagine the look on their face when you hand them one of the State Restricted Rolls — they’ll tell everyone they know what you did for them.

■ GOT ‘EM: Residents all across Ohio who get their hands on these State Restricted Silver Walking Liberty Bank Roll are definitely showing them off. That’s because they are the only ones known to exist. And here’s the best part, these Bank Rolls are loaded with U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberty coins some dating back to the early 1900’s and worth up to 100 times their face value so everyone wants them.

Last State Restricted Silver Walking Liberty Bank Rolls go to Ohio residents

Ohio residents get first dibs on last remaining Bank Rolls loaded with U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberties dating back to the early 1900’s some worth up to 100 times their face value for the next 2 days STATE DISTRIBUTION: A strict limit of 4 State Restricted Bank Rolls per OH resident has been imposed

“It’s a miracle these State Restricted Bank Rolls even exist. That’s why Hotline Operators are bracing for the flood of calls,” said Laura Lynne, U.S. Coin and Currency Director for the National Mint and Treasury. For the next 2 days the last remaining State of Ohio Restricted Bank Rolls loaded with rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberties are actually being handed over to Ohio residents who call the State Toll-Free Hotlines listed in today’s newspaper publication. “I recently spoke with a numismatic expert in United States of America coins and currency who said ‘In all my years as a numismatist I’ve only ever seen a handful of these rarely seen Silver Walking Liberties issued by the U.S. Gov’t back in the early 1900’s. But to actually find them sealed away in State Restricted Bank Rolls still in pristine condition is like finding buried treasure. So anyone lucky enough to get their hands on these Bank Rolls had better hold on to them,’” Lynne said. “Now that the State of Ohio Restricted Bank Rolls are being offered up we won’t be surprised if thousands of Ohio residents claim the maximum limit allowed of 4 Bank Rolls per resident before they’re all gone,” said Lynne. “That’s because the dates and mint marks of the U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberty Half Dollars sealed away inside the State of Ohio Restricted Bank Rolls have never been searched. But, we do know that some of these coins date clear back to the early 1900’s and are worth up to 100 times their face value, so there is no telling what Ohio residents will find until they sort through all the coins,” Lynne went on to say. And here’s the best part. If you are a resident of the state of Ohio you cover only the $39 per coin state minimum set by the National Mint and Treasury, that’s fifteen rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberties worth up to 100 times their face value for just $585 which is a real steal because non state residents must pay $118 per coin which totals $1,770 if any coins remain after the 2-day deadline. The only thing Ohio residents need to do is call the State Toll-Free Hotlines printed in today’s newspaper publication before the 2-day order deadline ends. “Rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued silver coins like these are highly sought after, but we’ve never seen anything like this before. According to The Official Red Book, a Guide Book of United States Coins many Silver Walking Liberty Half Dollars are now worth $115 - $825 each in collector value,” Lynne said. “We’re guessing thousands of Ohio residents will be taking the maximum limit of 4 Bank Rolls because they make such amazing gifts for any occasion for children, parents, grandparents, friends and loved ones,” Lynne continued. “We know the phones will be ringing off the hook. That’s why hundreds of Hotline Operators are standing by to answer the phones beginning at 8:30 am this morning. We’re going to do our best, but with just 2 days to answer all the calls it won’t be easy. So make sure to tell everyone to keep calling if all lines are busy. We’ll do our best to answer them all.” Lynne said. The only thing readers of today’s newspaper publication need to do is make sure they are a resident of the state of Ohio and call the National Toll-Free Hotlines before the 2-day deadline ends midnight tomorrow. ■

Are these Silver Walking Liberties worth more than other half dollars:

Yes. These U.S. Gov’t issued Silver Walking Liberties were minted in the early 1900’s and will never be minted again. That makes them extremely collectible. The vast majority of half dollars minted after 1970 have no silver content at all and these Walking Liberties were one of the last silver coins minted for circulation. That’s why many of them now command hundreds in collector value so there’s no telling how much they could be worth in collector value someday.

How much are State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls worth:

It’s impossible to say, but some of these U.S Gov’t issued Walking Liberties dating back to the early 1900’s are worth up to 100 times the face value and there are 15 in each Bank Roll so you better hurry if you want to get your hands on them. Collector values always fluctuate and there are never any guarantees. But we do know they are the only Ohio State Silver Bank Rolls known to exist and Walking Liberties are highly collectible so anyone lucky enough to get their hands on these Silver Bank Rolls should hold onto them because there’s no telling how much they could be worth in collector value someday.

Why are so many Ohio residents claiming them:

Because they are the only State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls known to exist and everyone wants their share. Each Bank Roll contains a whopping 15 Silver Walking Liberties dating back to the early 1900’s some worth up to 100 times their face value. Best of all Ohio residents are guaranteed to get them for the state minimum set by the National Mint and Treasury of just $39 per Silver Walking Liberty for the next two days.

How do I get the State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls:

Ohio residents are authorized to claim up to the limit of 4 State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls by calling the State Toll Free Hotline at 1-800-979-3771 Ext. RWB1038 starting at precisely 8:30 am this morning. Everyone who does is getting the only State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Rolls known to exist. That’s a full Bank Roll containing 15 Silver Walking Liberties from the early 1900’s some worth up to 100 times their face value for just the state minimum set by the National Mint and Treasury of just $39 per Silver Walking Liberty, which is just $585 for the full Bank Rolls and that’s a real steal because non state residents are not permitted to call before 5 pm tomorrow and must pay $1,770 for each Ohio State Restricted Walking Liberty Silver Bank Roll if any remain.

SPORTS Ron Dawn plans to retire as NewCath head basketball coach James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Newport Central Catholic High School head boys basketball coach Ron Dawn announced his retirement from the position June 29. This follows the April announcement of his retirement as principal of the school. At that time, he told the Enquirer he was intending to return to coaching but recently changed his mind. Dawn, a 1974 graduate of Newport Catholic and standout basketball player, began his coaching career at NCC with the boys basketball program in 1980. He was named the NCC boys head coach in 1990. After a ﬁ ve-year break to follow his son Ronny’s college basketball career at Marshall, he resumed coaching duties at NCC. He was named the girls head coach in 2009, a post he held for four seasons. In 2013, Dawn returned to the boys basketball program, adding three more All "A" Classic state titles to his list of successes. His most recent Ninth Region championship came in 2015-16 when his team made it to the semiﬁ nals in the KHSAA Sweet 16. Following that season, he stepped down as head coach to take the position of NCC principal but returned to the post in 2019. Dawn is the only coach in the state to win an All “A” state championship in both boys and girls basketball. Additionally, he is the only Ninth Region coach to win a postseason regional title for both the boys and girls. Dawn retires with 520 career victories, 429 as a boys coach, which ranks fourth in Ninth Region history. Current St. Henry coach Dave Faust is eight ahead with 437. Former Highlands coach Ken Shields has 460 and Newport legend Stan Arnzen, 452. In a release from the school, Dawn expressed his thanks to all of his past and present coaches and players.

“I am grateful to all the young men and ladies I have had the honor of coaching over the years and to all those who coached alongside me,” he said. Principal Kenny Collopy said those at Newport Central Catholic High School are grateful to Dawn for his selﬂ ess dedication. “As a former player, assistant coach, co-worker and mentee of Coach Dawn, I

can personally attest to the deep positive impact he has had on multiple generations of players and students,” Collopy said in the release. NCC athletic director Jeﬀ Schulkens added: “Ron Dawn has had a tremendous impact on NCC, from being a Hall of Fame player and coach to a great mentor to student-athletes and younger coaches. He has accomplished things

that no other coach in the state of Kentucky has accomplished. His love for the game and devotion to NCC is unmeasurable.” The school is accepting applications for the vacant coaching position. Contact Schulkens at (859) 292-0001, ext. 11, or jschulkens@ncchs.com.

Matthias Cusick records MVP night in West-East All-Star thriller Jayna Bardahl Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

In the fi nal play of the third overtime in the St. Elizabeth/Northern Kentucky Football Coaches Association’s EastWest All-Star Game, the East All-Stars had the chance. If they made the touchdown from 15 and goal they’d tie it and have a chance for a two-point conversion. If they didn’t, the long night ended in the hands of their opponents. Quarterback Caleb Jacob took the snap for the East All-Stars and fi red it up the center toward the end zone. It spiraled through the air, and eventually over the heads of receivers, Jacob fell to his knees and the West All-Stars claimed their 40-34 victory. “It’s a lot to throw 10 teams together, 10 diff erent groups of kids and 10 coaches and try to make an off ense and defense together and have them play at the caliber they did,” West All-Stars head coach Greg Taphouse said. “Kudos to the kids, they prevailed it was awesome.” The win came from a competitive night sealed at the hands of Ryle High School senior Matthias Cusick. Cusick earned game MVP in what he called the perfect way to end his high school football career. “Great performance; I’m proud of it,” Cusick said. Cusick tallied four touchdowns on the night. If one thing stayed consistent in the triple-overtime thriller, it was Cusick’s dominance on the off ensive end. “He was a great runner. He was a great asset to us. He put the team on his back when we needed him,” Taphouse said. Cusick started his night with a touchdown connection from quarterback Bradyn Lyons in the second quarter. It was based on chemistry Cusick and Lyons had built during their time playing together at Ryle, but in the third quarter, Cusick really found his running shoes. Early out of the halftime gates, Cusick sprinted along the sideline and spun around East All-Star defenders to give his team a fi rst down and a chance to break the 14-14 halftime tie. Later in the possession, Cusick did it again, this time battling through a mass of East All-Star defenders only to be tak-

en down at the 1-yard line. In the play that ensued, Cusick ﬁ nished what he started, rushing across the goal line to give the West All-Stars their third touchdown of the game. Cusick became the go-to guy for the West All-Stars in overtime, scoring two of the three touchdowns made by his team at the end.

So what kept Cusick going through three overtimes and four touchdowns? For him, it’s simple. “Passion,” Cusick said. “I love the game. I was born into the game. I love it and I stay in the game.” Not only did Cusick’s passion carry him through a triple-overtime night, but it also kept him driven as his helmet

broke during the game. On the East All-Stars, Jacob led his team to the near photo ﬁ nish. He scored all of the teams three touchdowns in regulation and bailed them out of some close fumble calls. Cusick will play football next year at Thomas More University. Jacob will play at Georgetown College.

in the Northern Kentucky region. He wants to be viable in the community with learning service opportunities. “We want to establish a culture of winning, serving, and leadership over the next few years,” McGinnis said. Pat Thatcher earned his bachelor’s degree in recreation and ﬁ tness from Northern Kentucky and his master of special education from Mount St. Joseph. Thatcher was the director of Fellowship of Christian Athletes Lacrosse

since 2012 in which he grew and established the club lacrosse ministry in Southwest Ohio. Thatcher also worked as the athletic performance coach for Anderson High School from 2004-2020. “The opportunity to become the ﬁ rst full-time women’s lacrosse coach at Thomas More is exciting and humbling at the same time,” Thatcher said. “I am looking forward to strengthening and developing the women’s lacrosse program to help put Thomas More lacrosse on the map. I want to build a strong

leadership culture that will consist of a close-knit team that develops into a family, building on what is already a strong community here at Thomas More.” Thatcher looks forward to becoming a more competitive NAIA program by adding numbers and gaining more lacrosse experience. Thomas More women’s lacrosse will resume play in the spring of 2022 while the men’s program will spend their ﬁ rst year at a club level.

Chillicothe star Allison Basye verbally commits to Northern Kentucky Norse

just a passion and drive for the game that is endless. The ﬁ rst ones to give me a chance, and have been there the entire way! With that being said I would like to announce my verbal commitment to continue my athletic and academic career at Northern Kentucky University!!

#Norseup” Basye selected the Norse over other celebrated programs such as the University of Cincinnati, University of Toledo, and Kent State University. While it may not be the most wellknown school, she said that Northern Kentucky was the best choice for her. “They have been with me since the very beginning,” Basye said. “They were the fi rst school to believe in me and were showing me attention before anyone else knew about me. Also, I have really built good relationships with their coaching staff .” Barring any changes, Basye will be playing for fi fth-year head coach, Camryn Whitaker, and her staff . In Whitaker’s time at the helm, the Norse have made multiple NCAA Tournaments, including appearances in the Elite Eight and Sweet Sixteen in the past two seasons. As for the Norse, they will be getting a player who has seemingly only gotten better as her career has gone on. In her junior year with the Huntsmen, she made the All-Ohio second team from Division III. She averaged 25 points per game, 11 rebounds per game, and shot 89% from the free-throw line. During the season, she also set new personal records in points in a game (46) and three-pointers in a game (seven). She was named the Scioto Valley Conference Player of the Year for the second straight year.

While her commitment will not be made oﬃ cial until later on in the year, Basye said that she was excited for the chance to suit up for the Norse and show that she’s not just an oﬀ ensive powerhouse. “I feel like I bring versatility to the team,” Basye said. “I’m a big guard and I can play anything from point guard to small forward. Then if we get a mismatch, I can play inside and guard the post.” Still, she has one more year of high school left and said that she planned on giving her all to the Huntsmen in the conclusion of her high school career. “I have been with Huntington my entire life,” Basye said. “I am very committed to my school and have high expectations. My main goal is to help our team win the SVC championship. As for my individual achievements, I want to break the school’s all-time scoring record. For her career, she has amassed 1,442 career points which are third-most in Huntington’s history and 19th most in SVC history. While a player’s commitment to a school could be a chance for them to brag about themself, Basye credits those around her for helping her to reach this point in her career. “I just want to thank everyone who has supported me,” Basye said. “I am very fortunate to have my family, friends, coaches, and everyone because I would not be here without them.”

That’s why Gold Star and The Children’s Theatre of Cincinnati partnered for the second year to honor a local teacher and student making a diff erence in the lives of others. In total, more than 500 student and teacher nominations were received, spanning 205

Mr. Nick Allen, gifted intervention specialist at Wyoming Middle School was named the 2021 Gold Star Teacher, and Audriana Parker, an incoming sophomore at Cooper High School received the Gold Star Student award.

CHILLICOTHE - When in high school, athletes are faced with several decisions, but none bigger than where they will decide to commit to in hopes of advancing their college careers. All-Ohio Huntington G/F, Allison Basye was posed with this decision, but for her, it was not a diffi cult choice. “It’s been a very long, but fun ride,” Basye said. “It started for me in seventh grade and Northern Kentucky was actually the fi rst team to recruit me. That has been a big reason why I found them to be so attractive.” After weighing many factors, Basye decided on North Kentucky University, which she verbally committed to on June 28. In a mass social media post where she made the announcement, Basye said: “First and foremost I’d like to thank God for giving me this opportunity to continue to do what I love at the next level. I would like to thank my family, friends, and all of the coaches and trainers I have had over the years that have shaped me into the player and person I am today, I wouldn’t be anywhere without them.

Allen will receive a free catered Gold Star lunch for his entire class, as well as a choice between three special theatre packages provided by The Children’s Theatre to enjoy with his students. When asked, Mr. Allen’s nominators said that his entire personality truly stands out and he is a friendly open resource for students of any age. “Mr. Allen comes up with really creative and fun projects that his kids get so engaged and excited about. He really has the ability to enable them to do projects that they do not consider work, but they continue to grow and learn,” said Katie Andersen, the mother of a student in Mr. Allen’s class. “We received fantastic nominations for this award, and it was diﬃ cult to select just one teacher. Greater Cincinnati is blessed to have many dedicated educators working with our kids every day,” said Gold Star President and CEO Roger David. “Mr. Allen’s nominations really highlighted how special he is to his community. He personiﬁ es what makes a great teacher. He very clearly has a special way of connecting with the students and helping them grow and thrive, going beyond the normal job duties to engage these kids.” Mr. Allen’s role extends outside of the traditional classroom. In addition to being the teacher lead for Model UN, he also plans the annual production of “A Christmas Carol,” executes future career exploration presentations, and over the last year, he has found creative and fun ways to engage his students and their parents. Mr. Allen has a visual impairment and despite the challenges, never lets his disability get in the way

of his teaching and is a fantastic role model to his students. “I am truly humbled and honored to receive this recognition,” Allen said. “I would like to accept this award on behalf of all teachers who worked tirelessly this year to deliver the educational opportunities our students deserve. Despite all the obstacles presented by the pandemic, teachers went above and beyond to provide meaningful and enjoyable learning experiences. I would also like to thank all of the students who demonstrated remarkable levels of adaptability, optimism, and excellence.” Audriana Parker, incoming sophomore, Cooper High School Audriana Parker, an incoming sophomore at Cooper High School, was honored with the Gold Star Student award for embodying what the award stands for strong work ethic, desire to learn, school involvement and most of all a heart for others. In addition to participating in extracurricular activities such as drama club and dance team, Audriana dedicates her time to giving back. In particular, she has made it her mission to support those with special needs in honor of her older sister who passed away before Audriana was born. In addition to being a dedicated volunteer at Redwood, which helps children and adults with severe and multiple disabilities through enriching educational, vocational and therapy services, she volunteers at her school to help classmates with special needs. She often plans personal fundraisers like selling lemonade, making bracelets or hosting yard sales in order to raise money for Cincinnati Children’s in honor of her sister’s memory. “We are thrilled to honor Audriana with this award,”

said Roderick Justice, Producing Artistic Director for The Children’s Theatre of Cincinnati. “In talking with her friends and family, it became very clear that Audriana is kind-hearted with a natural tendency to help others, often going about it quietly because she knows it’s the right thing to do. We want to encourage and thank her for always ﬁ nding ways to be a source of good in our community.” “Audriana deserves some recognition,” said her mother, Priscilla Parker. “She has a lot on her plate and she manages it like a champ, especially during the pandemic. There are many little things that make Audriana special but when you put them all together, they turn into something big.” Audriana will receive a walk-on role in The Children’s Theatre’s performance of Elf The Musical JR. this December at the Taft Theatre. She will also receive four complimentary tickets for friends and/or family members to attend the performance, plus a Gold Star VIP meal for herself and family and friends before the show. “More than 55 years ago, my family came to the United States to further their education, and so education is really at the root of who we are as a company,” said David. “Both Mr. Allen and Audriana embody that same spirit that drove our family; they’re both exceptional people.” “I would like to thank Gold Star and The Children’s Theatre of Cincinnati for giving me this award,” Parker said. “It means so much to be able to perform with The Children’s Theatre. I would also like to thank my friends and family for always supporting me, but especially my mom and drama club friends, who helped me build conﬁ dence and self-esteem.” Gina Genco, Gold Star Chili | The Children’s Theatre
