WHO IS THE RIGHT-TO-TRY LAW HELPING?

Anne Saker | Cincinnati Enquirer | USA TODAY NETWORK

etting sick turned Paul Rinderknecht of Springﬁ eld Township into a political activist for terminal patients who want more access to experimental drugs. A year ago, President Donald Trump signed the right-to-try law, and Rinderknecht celebrated.

Yet the law has not helped him or thousands of other Americans who hoped for relief from

dire conditions such as brain cancer and, in Rinderknecht’s case, the progressive paralysis known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. The right-to-try law does not mean patients get an experimental drug upon request. Hurdles remain high. One New York University analysis found that in its ﬁ rst year, the national right-to-try law has beneﬁ ted two patients. Rinderknecht, though, has not given up. “My advocacy is what drives me,” he said on a recent afternoon. He sat in his family-room recliner, his wife Leslie on a nearby couch, his pug Rocco at his feet. Son Leo, 9, and daughter Nora, 7, were at school. “This disease just creeps into our life so suddenly,” Rinderknecht said. “Then to learn about how seemingly far away we are from solving it is so hard.”

‘My right to try’ The Enquirer has been following Rinderknecht since his 2016 diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. A silent auction in 2017 raised $75,000, an amount Rinderknecht called “my right to try.” ALS is diffi cult to diagnose, presenting diff erently in every patient. Life expectancy is three to fi ve See PATIENT, Page 2A

Colerain Township is fi ghting allegations that elected offi cials conducted public business behind closed doors. A citizens complaint alleges that trustees discussed and voted in private on a new law fi rm contract. The complaint was fi led in May in the Hamilton County Court of Common Pleas on behalf of residents Kathy Mohr and Stephanie Wright. The women are represented by Matt Miller-Novak. “Colerain’s trustees are using their administrator as a soup can on a string to deliberate and take actions privately,” Miller-Novak said. “As the complaint details, Colerain discussed and voted on which law fi rm to contract with in private. “According to one of the trustee’s own representations on Facebook, the trustees often communicate their votes privately before matters are even placed on the agenda.” The suit names the township as an entity and each trustee individually. Township Administrator Geoff Milz said the complaint is not accurate. No busiMilz ness is done behind closed doors. The complaint is focused on township eff orts in 2018 to contract with a law fi rm for legal services. The existing contract at the time was with Schroeder, Maundrell, Barbiere, and Powers (SMBP). Four proposals for legal services were submitted, according to the complaint. Township offi cials met with and interviewed fi rm representatives in executive session. On two separate dates, the trustees entered executive session for “employment and compensation of public employees,” according to the complaint. Instead, they were discussing the future of legal services for the township and chose SMBP while still in executive session. Milz called the complaint frustrating given the priority the township places on transparency. “Transparency is part of our culture,” he said. The theme for the township’s 2018 strategic plan was transparency. The township will fi ght the complaint in court, he said. Colerain will be represented by attorney Curt Hartman. This isn’t the fi rst time the township has had to defend itself against a complaint by Mohr, Milz said. In 2018, Mohr fi led a complaint alleging that the township had improperly denied her request for public records. Colerain fought and won the case after the court found that Mohr’s requests were for nonexistent records, Milz said.

his 2018 State of the Union address, Congress passed the federal right-to-try law. Trump signed it into law May 30 surrounded by four patients whose names were placed on the law to honor their advocacy. Rinderknecht was thrilled, especially since one company had an experimental regimen for ALS that passed the ﬁ rst phase of FDA clinical trials. “This was my chance,” he said.

years. There is no cure, and few treatments are available. The Rinderknechts traveled to Columbus and Washington to tell legislators they could not wait years or even decades for promising drugs to clear the three phases of clinical trials that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration requires for approval. Drug companies spend billions of dollars on clinical testing, and about 90 percent of experimental drugs never come to market. Many patients cannot get into clinical trials because pharmaceutical companies want relatively healthy candidates to achieve the best test results. The Goldwater Institute, a Phoenixbased think tank, developed a workaround: allowing patients to ask for access to potential remedies that had cleared the ﬁ rst phase of FDA testing, which simply evaluates a drug’s safety for use in humans. State legislatures seized on right-totry bills to remedy a heartbreaking plight. In 2014, Colorado passed the ﬁ rst state law. Five years later, at least 41 states –including Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana – have versions on the books. The wrinkles, though, are many. The worst: Drug companies do not have to supply the treatment. Health insurers also do not have to cover costs, which can be considerable.

Potential cures or false hope? The biggest issue of all is that the FDA already has a gateway for patients to get experimental drugs called expanded access. Patients can ask the FDA for drugs still in testing, and the agency approves nearly all the 1,500 requests received every year. Opponents of right-to-try laws say a broader agenda is at work, undercutting FDA authority to regulate drugs. As Congress debated a federal right-to-try bill,

more than 75 patient groups argued against passage as dangerous to the drug-trial process. “The law might create confusion and potentially false hope,” said law professor Patricia J. Zettler. In 2015, while at Georgia State University, Zettler published a paper arguing the law couldn’t perform as advertised. “The name of the law, right to try, implied a right that doesn’t actually exist,” she said. “What is most beneﬁ cial is access to intervention and treatments that actually work, and I guess I worry that things like the right-to-try law distract from that ultimate goal and potentially undermine the FDA’s authority to endure you have good evidence.” Naomi Lopez Bauman, director of health care policy for the Goldwater Institute, said the swift passage of rightto-try laws reﬂ ects the internet-fueled growth of patient advocacy.

Making FDA more responsive Bauman oﬀ ered the example of Dr. Ebrahim Delpassand of Houston, a cancer specialist who treated 100 cancer patients under the Texas right-to-try law with a drug that was available to patients through the expanded-access path. Last year, after urging from Trump in

The BrainStorm offer BrainStorm Cell Therapeutics is a small Israeli company developing a cell treatment for ALS called NurOwn, which has moved into phase three of FDA testing at six sites in the United States. A patient’s bone marrow is harvested, processed to produce more of certain molecules that can reduce infl ammation, then injected back into the patient. After the bill passed, the company provided the treatment free to one ALS patient, Matt Bellina of Holland, Pennsylvania, whose name was on the law. Then BrainStorm made a bold off er: The company would give the treatment to patients under the new law, for $300,000. Intense blowback accusing BrainStorm of profi teering pushed the company to roll back the off er. Chaim Lebovits, BrainStorm’s president and chief executive offi cer, told The Enquirer: “With complex cellular therapies, there are as many indirect costs as direct costs, which are not recoverable. The management team made the painful decision not to move forward with providing access to a limited number of patients through the Right To Try pathway due to the lack of a viable funding mechanism and the inability to recover indirect costs.” The BrainStorm decision disappointed Rinderknecht. He and Leslie have been comrades with Bellina in lobbying for the right-to-try law. As Bellina underwent the NurOwn treatment, the Rinderknechts watched his progress on social media, including a video in which Bellina pulls himself to his feet from his

wheelchair. Bellina declined interview requests from The Enquirer. Lebovits declined to discuss Bellina’s progress “since NurOwn is still an investigational therapy.”

Changing ‘the risk calculus’ No one is certain how many patients have gotten experimental drugs in the year since Trump signed the federal right-to-try law. Companies are required to report right-to-try use once a year to the FDA, which has not compiled that information yet. A New York University medical-ethics group, which is following the right-to-try movement, counts two patients treated under the federal law: Bellina and a California brain-cancer patient. Bauman at the Goldwater Institute said the law’s eﬀ ectiveness will grow as companies ﬁ gure out how to use it for desperate patients. “This really does change the risk calculus.” Zettler said a better solution would be to allow more patients to enter clinical drug trials. “I worry about promoting the idea that there’s this trove of unproven therapies that but for the FDA or drug companies would be available to patients,” she said.

Living day to day with ALS Early in his illness, Rinderknecht got into one clinical trial for a drug that seemed to help, but infection required him to stop. He is now on the only FDAapproved drug for ALS, Riluzole, on the market since the 1990s. In the spring, Rinderknecht’s family launched a petition drive to persuade BrainStorm to allow him to get the treatment under the right-to-try law. BrainStorm offi cials said the company has had to decline thousands of such requests. ALS is on the move. Rinderknecht’s right arm and leg are nearly frozen. He uses a breathing machine for sleep. He has a feeding tube. Daughter Nora is too young to know what is happening, but son Leo is aware. “At school, he did research on ALS,” Rinderknecht said. “He asks Alexa, ‘What is ALS? ’” Friends and family contribute to give him experiences of a lifetime. Last fall, Paul and Leo went on a hunting trip. In the winter, Paul and Leslie went to Key West. In June, the family will set off in an RV for a tour of national parks. The $75,000 from the silent auction now has other purposes. The landslide epidemic hit the Rinderknecht back yard in the spring of 2018, and about half the money will go to a new retaining wall. Another portion will cover renovations to turn the fi rst fl oor of the Rinderknecht home into a hospital space.

Teen who shared sex video now registered sex oﬀ ender Those were the main consequences imposed on Horton for what his attorney, Carl Lewis, called a “youthful indiscretion.” “I doubt very seriously Horton you’ll ever see this young man again in the criminal justice system,” Lewis told Dinkelacker. Horton pleaded guilty last month to a felony child pornography charge, which requires him to register as a Tier 2 sex oﬀ ender. He will have to register his address every six months for the next 25 years. He was expelled from North College Hill High School after the video surfaced last year. The mother of the 14-year-old girl went to police in October 2018 with

A teen who prosecutors said secretly recorded himself having sex with a 14year-old girl and then sent the video to classmates has to register as a sex offender for the next 25 years. Jeremiah Horton, 18, was one of four teens prosecuted in connection with the video. He was the only one charged in adult court. At a sentencing Thursday, May 23 in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court, Judge Patrick Dinkelacker also ordered Horton to spend six months at the River City Correctional Center. The facility is a local alternative to prison that focuses on rehabilitating nonviolent oﬀ enders.

The world’s largest bounce house is coming to Cincinnati June 21-23. The tour features three massive inﬂ atable attractions including the world’s largest bounce house, an obstacle course and a space-themed area. The Big Bounce America will be set up at Cincinnati’s Heroes Sports Park.

the video. Police said Horton, a senior who played on the football team, sent it to fellow students. When Horton shared the video in September 2018 he had been 18 for less than a month, according to prosecutors. Three students who then disseminated that video, two boys and a girl, were prosecuted in juvenile court. One of the boys, who was 14, received the video on his cellphone and then sent it as a group text message to eight others, according to court documents obtained by The Enquirer. In January, he was placed on probation, ordered to wear an electronic monitoring unit for 90 days, and ordered to complete a sex oﬀ ender counseling pro-

gram. The girl, also 14, disseminated the video to a Snapchat group, court documents say. She also was placed on probation. The second teen boy sent the video to an unspeciﬁ ed number of classmates. He was placed on probation last month. If he violates probation, he will be in the permanent custody of Ohio Department of Youth Services until he turns 21, the documents say. According to Dinkelacker, the victim’s mother said her daughter had been impacted signiﬁ cantly. In court, Dinkelacker summarized her statement: “She said (Horton) should know that he hurt everyone’s family – his included.”

Anthony Worthington apparently knew what had happened to his 13month-old daughter. After police and paramedics arrived at Worthington’s Colerain Township apartment on Jan. 4, he told them they should “Narcan” the girl. “He said he thought the child might have ‘gotten into something,’” according to court documents. Raegan Worthington was found face down and unresponsive in the bed she shared with a 7-year-old sibling. Narcan was administered, unsuccessfully, and Raegan was taken to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center where she was pronounced dead. On Friday, May 24 in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court, Worthington, 40, pleaded guilty to multiple charges including manslaughter. Documents say Worthington admitted to police that he’d stashed a “rock of heroin” inside his sock before falling asleep in the same room where Raegan and other children were playing and

watching television. When he woke up, the rock was gone. It was later discovered under Raegan’s pillow, court documents say, in Worthington the same bed where she was found. In addition to heroin, the rock contained fentanyl and tramadol, a pain drug. An analysis of the girl’s blood showed “she had consumed a toxic amount of fentanyl,” the documents say. The county coroner’s offi ce ruled her death a homicide. Worthington also pleaded guilty to tampering with evidence and drug traffi cking. While police were at his home on Jan. 4, documents say he told his 15-year-old niece to get rid of drugs. She was stopped as she planned to fl ush a bag of drugs down a toilet, the documents say. Police recovered more than a bulk amount of methamphetamine, indicating Worthington intended to sell it. Visiting Judge Sylvia Hendon will sentence Worthington on June 19.

The Facts About Hearing Loss Hearing loss is one of the most common disabilities in the country, affecting more than 35 million Americans. And it impacts nearly every aspect of their lives: professional, social and personal. Yet, the average person with hearing loss waits a full seven years before seeking help. We’re trying to change that, because effective hearing aids can vastly improve people’s quality of life. Here are the most common myths about hearing LOSS—and the facts: Myth: If I were suffering from hearing loss, my doctor would know.

Fact: Only 15% of physicians routinely screen their adult patients for hearing loss. So unless you bring acute symptoms to your doctor, he/she is unlikely to test your hearing. Myth: For people with hearing loss, everything is equally hard to hear. Fact: This is a common fallacy but completely untrue. A person with hearing loss may have normal hearing in the low tones but severe loss in higher frequencies—the register where women’s and children’s voices tend to be. Some consonants tend to

Hearing Loss and Mental Decline New research has linked hearing loss with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. Scientists from John Hopkins School of Medicine and Brandeis University have shown that people over 60 years old who have hearing loss are a greater risk of mental decline. One theory of why hearing loss may cause mental decline is the concept of "cognitive load". That is, the brain can only do so many things at once. When someone with normal hearing is listening to speech in a challenging environment like in background noise, he may not hear every sound in a word or every word in a sentence. The brain can fill in the blanks if it has enough of the speech information. A person with a hearing loss typically hears some speech sounds and misses others. This makes for a much more difficult situation for the brain to handle and increases its work. This

is why people with normal hearing may be able to follow two conversations at once or listen to the TV while listening to other people--a task that is very difficult for those with hearing loss. More frightening are studies that indicate that certain areas of the brain shrink faster when a person has hearing loss. These areas of the brain are very close to those associated with those that are affected with dementia. It may be that when the brain does not receive adequate sound stimulation, the unused neurons shrink--a "use it or lose it" phenomenon. Untreated hearing loss seems to be a much greater health risk than previously thought. Other research has linked hearing loss to increased risk of falling. People with a mild hearing loss are three times more likely to fall than

those with normal hearing. Those with a moderate hearing loss are more than four times more likely to fall. This is of great concern to older Americans. Between 18% and 33% of older hip fracture patients die within 1 year of their fracture and between 25% and 75% of those who are independent before their fracture do not achieve their previous level of independent living within 1 year after their fracture. The good news is that a preliminary study from Washington University School of Medicine indicates that wearing hearing aids improves balance for people with hearing loss.

be harder to hear than others: these include S, T and H. Myth: If I can cope by turning up the volume and having face-to-face conversations, I should. Fact: It’s important to know that coping with hearing loss—even if you do it well—can have negative effects on your professional life, your relationships and your brain. It’s not worth straining to hear or using workarounds. The best solution is to get a hearing checkup and treat any hearing loss.

Hearing is essential to healthy relationships

A 2010 survey found that in marriages where a spouse has a hearing loss both partners suffer. It is frustrating to not be able to be heard and understood. It may seem that your spouse is intentionally ignoring you when she actually can't hear you. This can lead to many relationship problems. Some of the study participants said that the hearing loss had actually made them consider leaving the marriage. This is especially concerning since over one third of people over 65 have significant hearing loss. "The years after 65 are supposed to be some of the best for relationships. Spouses who are empty-nesters should be enjoying each other in retirement activities and enjoying the grandchildren." says Dr. Scott Beall Au.D., the owner of 38 local Miracle-Ear® hearing aid centers. "Every day we see the stress that hearing loss causes in the family; from hurt feelings, to feelings of inadequacy, to deep fears about mental decline. The intimacy that should be there in a marriage just erodes away. It doesn't have to be this way. When we address the problem with proper hearing solutions, their lives just light up. That's why we say that we help people 'Listen to Life' again."

Try serving a refreshing fruity shrub Master fruit shrub recipe

Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld

Ingredients

The conversation on the subject of shrubs started with gardening expert and friend Ron Wilson. We were chatting about a class at Turner Farms that we were to teach. Along with food, I planned on making shrubs. “What’s a shrub?” He asked. I told him shrubs are refreshing colonial health drinks made with fruit, vinegar and sugar. I don’t think that convinced him. Then Ron tasted the shrubs during class (Chef Stephanie Michalak had melon shrub already made). Fizzy, fruity and just sweet enough, Ron is now all in. He even wants to have a “shrub” party. I told him before that happens, he has to learn to make shrubs. Maybe I’ve peaked your interest too. So for Ron, and you, here’s an easy recipe for making shrubs. First, the history. The word shrub comes from the Arabic sharbah, meaning drink. Drinks made with vinegars date back to ancient times. During the long voyage to America, shrubs were included. Why? The vitamin C content from the fruit prevented scurvy and the vinegar, a fermented liquid, was good for the digestive system. When prohibition was at its height, shrubs became popular substitutes for alcoholic beverages. With the focus today on healthy drinks, shrubs are becoming mainstream. Shrub basics Shrubs are just sweetened fruit-ﬂ avored vinegars. The acid in vinegar preserves the drink, so shrubs can be kept for months refrigerated. Fruit: Most fruits work well, the riper,

Recipe can be doubled, tripled, etc. 2 heaping cups fruit, peeled, chopped or crushed a bit if necessary 2 cups vinegar 1 to 2 cups sugar or to taste Instructions Sterilize glass jar. Heat vinegar in pan to a simmer. You’ll see little bubbles around the edges. Don’t boil. Pour vinegar over fruit in jar, leaving a bit of space. Put lid on. Cool, then place in cool, dark place or refrigerator. I put mine in the refrigerator. Let infuse at least 2 days or as long as you want (a month or more is OK) until desired flavor is reached. Strain fruit for a sparkling looking shrub syrup, or leave in and puree for a thicker syrup.

Shrubs can be made with melon and strawberry. RITA HEIKENFELD/PROVIDED

the better. Fruit doesn’t have to be perfect. Remove any bad spots. Start with a simple one fruit shrub, then experiment with more fruits, spices, etc. Peel, chop, or crush fruit a bit to hasten infusion. I’ve made blueberry and strawberry shrubs. Melon, peach, pineapple, citrus and apple are excellent - you get the picture!

Vinegar: Distilled white for clear, sharp ﬂ avor or apple cider vinegar for mellow ﬂ avor. Rice vinegar works too. How about a splash of balsamic added? Sugar: I use granulated, but raw, brown or honey works. Other ways to use shrubs: Cocktail mixers, salad dressings, over ice cream, etc. Coming soon: Like Decent Deli’s sweet cabbage soup.

Place in pan, add sugar and bring just to a boil. Cool and pour into sterilized container and cap. Store in refrigerator up to 6 months or more. If shrub bubbles, get slimy, etc. toss it. That rarely happens. Serve: Mix a few tablespoons syrup into glass of chilled sparkling or regular water. Taste and add more, if desired.

Viewpoints Morehouse grad: ‘Robert Smith freed me up’ Byron McCauley Columnist Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

There were some lean days back in Cincinnati for Christi McKinney, a single mom of from Forest Park. Her son, Cameron Cunningham, was studying religion at Morehouse College, a private school in Atlanta where tuition cost nearly $50,000 a year. She also had a daughter attending Princeton High School. She stayed awake at night wondering how her son would ever pay off his student loan debt. It was a constant concern. “I felt like that all the time. With him being down in Atlanta and me here in Cincinnati, I was trying to hold things down, trying to take there of things here,” McKinney said. “I would do anything I could possibly do for my son – as long as it’s legal – to help him get that education. We struggled, but we did it.” Indeed. Then on a recent Sunday, a miracle of sorts happened that will change Cunningham’s life forever and set McKinney’s mind at ease. Against hard blue skies on a mild day for Atlanta, Morehouse’s commencement speaker, Robert Smith, a tech billionaire, pledged to pay off the student loan debt of the Morehouse Class of 2019. For Cunningham, that’s going to amount to about $100,000. When I talked to him the other day, he was in Brooklyn, New York, preparing to fl y to Israel for 10 days to study ancient texts concerning Palestinian-Jewish confl ict and compare them to what’s happening

Cameron Cunningham, of Forest Park, is one of 396 Morehouse College graduates who will have their student loans paid for by the family of billionaire Robert F. Smith. PROVIDED

today. “When we received this great blessing, I just felt totally relieved, realizing

that my son, nor myself, will be responsible for paying this,” McKinney said. Nearly a week after Smith’s gift, Cun-

ningham remains in disbelief. “I’m still in a daze. It still feels unreal because it’s a new lease on life. You are a student taking on student loan debt as a risk and a challenge to yourself,” he said. “Robert Smith freed me up. Now I can put 110 percent to doing what I feel is best to make the world a better place and (make) the religion community much stronger.” Cunningham said he is either going into pastoral leadership, be a religious scholar, or both. He said the gift will allow him to serve without being so concerned about the amount of money he would need to make as a man of the cloth. He’s headed to the Candler School of Theology at Emory University in Atlanta in August to continue his studies. He lamented the fact that Morehouse has a 61 percent graduation rate, not always because of academic aptitude, but because students hit ﬁ nancial walls and just can’t ﬁ nish. According to the Wall Street Journal, those who attend a historically black college or university (HBCU) will have federal student debt that is 32 percent higher than those at other schools. “As soon as graduation started, I was caught on camera crying. I had made it to commencement. What Robert Smith was willing to do was the greatest graduation gift,” Cunningham said. And to think, there are 395 other stories around the country most of us haven’t heard yet. Byron McCauley is a columnist at the Enquirer. Email bmccauley@enquirer.com. Phone: (513) 768-8565.

as a star. She graduated in 2013 and was awarded an athletic scholarship to the University of Wisconsin, where she graduated in 2017 after appearing in 84 matches for the Badgers. That year, the local soccer phenom became the No. 1 overall pick in the National Women’s Soccer League draft by the Boston Breakers. She made 10 appearances with the Breakers in an injury-shortened season, but the Breakers folded before the start of the 2018 season, so Rose went No. 1 overall again in a dispersal draft to the Washington Spirit, and at the same time, she was starting to climb the ranks on the national team roster. Rose began training with the USWNT in 2015 and made her ﬁ rst appearance in 2017. “I don’t like calling it a dream because it always seemed very real to me. That was always my plan ... I think it drove me to make certain decisions that helped me in my career.” Those decisions created a player

The 2019 OHSAA Division I state tournament fi nals came up all Cincinnati, and more specifi cally, all St. Xavier and Mason Saturday, May 25. “It’s great to see that Cincinnati tennis is really taking over the state of Ohio,” Mason senior Niraj Komantineni said after winning the 2019 state singles championship. Junior Ronit Hiryur represented the Bombers in singles, as well as the duo of sophomore Charles Temming and freshman Preston Stearns. The Comets saw Komatineni reach the singles fi nals, and the freshman team of Anish Gangavaram and Vignesh Gogineni make the doubles championship. Komatineni entered the state fi nale on a tear, dropping just three games in the tournament. Hiryur would change that. The fi rst set belonged to Komatineni, who charged out to a 6-1 victory. In the second set, though, Hiryur stormed back from an early defi cit to knot up the score at four games apiece. Sensing the tide turning, Komatineni dug deep and amped up his aggression, securing the fi nal two games and winning a state title. “I mean, I was feeling really tired, but I tried to make it look like I wasn’t tired,” Komatineni said. “You know, if I could get some blood pumping through my veins again and some adrenaline going (I felt) I could pull it off .” The size of the moment — winning as a senior in the same city he is from — was not lost on him. “My last match in Mason, where I grew up, and winning out here feels amazing.” The doubles championship was a bout between two teams marked by resilience. Mason’s Gangavaram and Gogineni battled back from a semifi nal match that saw them staring at a 6-4 fi rst set loss. They went on to take the second set 6-3 and the third in a tight, 7-5 win. Temming and Stearns of St. Xavier would have to bounce back themselves. The fi rst set of the fi nals went to Mason, who edged the Bombers by a razorthin, 7-6 margin. But Temming and Stearns stayed focused, “Sometimes we get down, but then we just go right back up,” Stearns said. “We’re always focusing on the next points.” “Just calm down,” Temming added of their mentality after their fi rst set loss. “I mean, we lose it, whatever. Second set, boom, start over. We have plenty of tennis left.” And that is exactly what the pair did. The Bombers secured the second set with a 6-3 victory and captured the match with a 6-4 win in the third to bring home the state title. Mason wins Ohio Tennis Coaches

Rose Lavelle, United States Women's National Soccer player and Cincinnati native, poses in front of a mural depicting her put up on a wall on West Freedom Way in Downtown Cincinnati on May 21. ALBERT CESARE / THE ENQUIRER

Don’t call it a dream. Rose Lavelle always believed Adam Baum Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Janet Lavelle picked up her young daughter Rose from school early so she could make it home in time to watch something on television. It was the U.S. Women’s National Team in a 2003 World Cup semiﬁ nal match against Germany. “I thought, ‘I know this is lame,’ no one thinks this is important taking a girl out of school to watch a women’s sporting event,” said Janet. “(But) she wasn’t gonna get to see it otherwise.” Rose watched the Americans lose 3-0, , then retreated her bedroom. “I remember the rest of the night I sat on my bunk bed and cried,” said Rose, now 24 and set to make her FIFA Women’s World Cup debut in June in France for the USWNT. Her mom remembers that “Rose said, ‘I need some time to be alone and about a half hour later I checked on her and she was in her bed on the top bunk, but she was under the covers sitting straight up, crying.” Almost a year to the day after those tears, in October of 2004, nearly 19,000 fans ﬁ led into Paul Brown Stadium to watch the U.S. beat New Zealand, 6-0. One of those fans was Rose. “I always say the big moment for me was when the women’s team actually played at Paul Brown,” said Rose, who was accompanied that day by her dad, Marty, her mom, and her sister, Nora. “Mia Hamm, Kristine Lilly, Julie Foudy, all of them were still on the team ... watching them play in person was so huge because it made it all the more real to me and made me realize how much I wanted to be in their shoes one day. “That was kind of the moment I saw it as my future.” For a young girl to have women to look up to had an undeniable impact on Rose, said her mom. “You don’t realize the impact that can have like, ‘Oh, there is a place for me to do this.’”

dream. A dream implies the possibility of failure, that things might not have turned this way, and she always believed they would. “I just kept building on each year and getting better each year,” said Rose. “I just feel like I had a steady progression and the whole time I had this belief and thought in my head like this is where I want to be one day, on that team.” She played on her ﬁ rst team when she was 5. By second grade, she was playing club soccer. “I always thought she was very good,” her mom said. “She was always very unique with how lightly she moved and how her toes never seemed to touch the ground. “She was this little girl and I felt like she was always underrated ... but at the same time, there would be times after games and people would say, ‘Who is that little girl?’” Then came stops with the Sycamore United Soccer Club and eventually Cincinnati United Premier. By the time she got to Mount Notre Dame High School, she was recognized

who’s hard to forget once you’ve seen her play. Former Mount Notre Dame High School coach Doug Conway remembers the fi rst time he saw Rose. He was coaching a preseason camp when Rose’s older sister, Nora, was a freshman. “I remember watching this little skinny girl juggle a ball forever and, fi nally, I’m like, ‘Does anybody know who that is?’” When Nora was a senior, Rose joined her big sister and Conway put Rose on the varsity roster. “Skill-wise, she was defi nitely a varsity player,” said Conway, who’s still a local club soccer coach. “Physically, I was a little concerned with her getting hurt because she was a little slight and you’re playing against girls on varsity who are women.” Still, it didn’t take long for Rose to fi nd the starting lineup. “I quickly found out that she’s not gonna get hurt because people can’t

catch her. She’s so quick on the ball and when I say ‘catch’ I don’t just mean sprint, but her change of direction,” said Conway. “I tell people all the time she’s got the quickest feet and movement of any player I’ve ever coached.” While Rose was busy believing and burning through the midﬁ eld, her mom and dad watched and understood why she believed. “I thought she could get there only from the fact that anytime I saw her play, I never saw anybody better than her,” said her dad, Marty. “I thought, ‘Well, there’s got to be somebody out there that’s better.’ “I do recall a Friday afternoon she was playing in Indianapolis and Janet was up there with her and she was playing a Cleveland team that had this girl who was committed to (University of) Notre Dame and I thought, ‘She’s getting a full ride to Notre Dame and Rose kind of wanted to go there ... she’s gotta be better than Rose.’ “So, I decided I’m just gonna take the afternoon oﬀ and drive up there and see this girl that’s better than Rose. “And she wasn’t.”

‘Plan A worked out’ A few weeks ago, Rose was about to start a physical therapy session when she got a call from USWNT coach Jill Ellis. The World Cup roster had her name on it. Rose said she fi red off some texts. “It was very simple: ‘Good news, I made the team,’” said Marty. “We found out later that she told her college coach (Paula Wilkins) ahead of us,” he laughed. Her mom said, “Rose responded: ‘Thank you, I wouldn’t be here without you guys and everything you’ve done’ – now I’ll start crying – ‘and sacrifi ced to help me fulfi ll my dreams.’” A few weeks before her World Cup debut – a group stage match against Thailand on June 11 – Rose was asked what her backup plan was if soccer hadn’t worked out. “Honestly, I have no idea,” said Rose. “There was never a Plan B, so thank God plan A worked out.” Rose’s family will spend about three weeks in France this summer to see her play two games. Back home, in Cincinnati and across

the country, there will be plenty of little girls watching. “That’s what it’s all about,” said Heather Mitts, a 1996 St. Ursula Academy graduate who was playing in 2004 at Paul Brown Stadium. Mitts made 137 appearances for the USWNT from 1999-2013. “You have to pinch yourself because you get to live the dream but then it means even more when you get to inspire the next generation,” said Mitts, who today runs a soccer camp with Rose. “It’s a large part of why we have our camp together. To inspire the next Rose Lavelle.” Rose still thinks about that little girl who crawled into bed, pulled the covers over her head and cried because her team lost. “I always think of that, what 9-year-old Rose would think if she knew what future Rose was up to nowadays,” said Rose. “Just last year when I was playing for the Spirit, Briana Scurry (former USWNT goalkeeper) was one of our assistant coaches and I was like if my 9year-old self knew that the goalie at the time was gonna be my coach one day, she would be freaking out.”

another new way to appreciate the beauty of Winton Woods.” As the couple was walking through Winton Woods about 20 years ago, they discovered an area that was alive with color thanks to beautiful, native wildfl owers. It was in an area of the park that saw few visitors. The Garnetts returned and began learning about the diff erent varieties of fl owers they saw. It soon became an annual tradition for them to visit the area every spring and look for the fi rst fl owers of the season. Both William and Gina worked in higher education during their careers, and he felt that the overlook would be a wonderful way to celebrate both her love of nature and her love of teaching. The overlook includes a boardwalk with educational signs and a bench. It is located along Lakeview Drive, north of Winton Lake. Peter Osborne

The company’s development of new markets for U.S. goods was also particularly notable. Your company’s achievements have undoubtedly contributed to national export expansion eff orts that support the U.S. economy and create American jobs.” Company Founder Zachary Green, a former U.S. Marine and fi refi ghter, accepted the award from Secretary Ross.

American companies are nominated for “E” Awards through the U.S. and Foreign Commercial Service offi ce network, located within the U.S. Department of Commerce’s International Trade Administration. Record years of successive export growth and an applicant’s demonstration of an innovative international marketing plan that led to the increase in exports is a signifi cant factor in selecting the overall winners. “We are proud to be recognized for this prestigious award,” says Green. “We hope to continue exporting our life-saving products to countries world-wide.” Laura Kroeger

72 bike helmets donated to Hamilton County kids Great Parks of Hamilton County has donated 72 bicycle helmets to children in Hamilton County through the Cincinnati Recreation Commission to celebrate May as Bike Helmet Safety Awareness Month. The helmets are available thanks to a grant from the Ohio Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and its “Put A Lid On It” program. “Riding a bicycle is a great way to see and enjoy the parks, but it’s important to do so safely. That’s why we’re so grateful to be able to provide these helmets to children in Hamilton County,” said Todd Palmeter, CEO of Great Parks of Hamilton County.

The Put A Lid On It program will distribute up to 10,000 bike helmets throughout Ohio this year. According to the AAP, 75 percent of bike-related fatalities would be prevented with a helmet. However, just 10 to 20 percent of children wear bike helmets. In addition to the bicycle helmets, individual bicycles were also donated to children at the event, held on May 17 at the Dunham Recreation Center. The bicycles were donated by Trotta’s Pizza founder Joe Trotta and were serviced by the Mobo Bicycle Coop in Cincinnati. For children and adults alike, Great Parks features more than 78 miles of bicycle trails, including both paved trails and mountain bike trails. The “Put a Lid on It” program is a partnership between the Ohio chapter of the AAP and the Ohio Department of Transportation. Since the program was established in 2011, more than 57,000 helmets have been distributed throughout the state. Peter Osborne

Yess, Mill Creek’s Deputy Executive Director & Program Director, and Dave Schmitt, Mill Creek’s Executive Director, Koss learned of the work their organization does . In collaboration with local communities, the Alliance strives to create a Mill Creek watershed that is a healthy ecosystem through environmental restoration of water quality as well as plants, trees and wild life. Mike Cox, Head of Sustainability at Emery Oleochemicals, stated, “We are so pleased with this green endeavor achieved by Karen and appreciate her sharing her passion for nature with the Mill Creek Alliance, who will plant the oak tree seedlings around the pathways they maintain along the Mill Creek watershed so that future generations can enjoy them.” On donation day, Dave Schmitt, along with several members of his Mill Creek Alliance staﬀ , met with Karen and Mike to receive the oak tree seedlings. “Mill Creek Alliance (MCA) is thrilled to receive the gift of these oak seedlings from Emery Oleochemicals. We share Karen’s and Emery’s passion for sustainability and have had a wonderful relationship with the company through their Community Advisory Panel. The seedlings will become part of MCA’s ongoing

restoration of the Mill Creek watershed and its communities. Karen’s nurturing of these trees will beneﬁ t many people in the very neighborhoods which surround Emery’s campus, and we look forward to continuing to work with the company for

many years to come,” said Dave. To learn more about Emery Oleochemicals, visit www.emeryoleo.com To learn about the Mill Creek Alliance, visit www.themillcreekalliance.org Patti Koss
