The only man in town who cleans up roadkill Byron McCauley Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Editor’s note: Information included refl ects this article’s original publication date: June 20. Anyone who thinks Americans would rather foist their dirtiest, nastiest jobs onto someone more willing to do them obviously has not met Danny Jackson of Cincinnati. I have always had a special place in my heart for workers like strawberry pickers, roofers, farmers, plumbers and the folks who haul off our garbage every week. Jackson is on a whole other level. He's the guy whose sole job is to remove dead animals from our city streets as part of the sanitation division of the Public Services Department. He drives more than 250 miles a week, often with a truck bed fi lled with animal carcasses. People may remember seeing him in a 2011 episode of "Undercover Boss" with former Mayor Mark Mallory. Jackson is 63 years old but looks 20 years younger. He grew up in the Skyline Acres neighborhood near Colerain Township. He has been on this job for 10 years now. Nothing grosses him out. "I stopped being grossed out when I started getting hungry and thirsty. I had to eat. And this was the job that was available," Jackson said. "You got child sup-

port looking at you in the face. And after so long it just became natural to me. To pick up a deer or a raccoon or a skunk, it's natural. I know how to get it." He told me he could eat a sandwich in the truck. He is joking. (I think.) Last weekend, I counted six dead deer between downtown and Mason on Interstate 71. That seemed like a high number, I thought. Deer breed in fall and winter, so many a buck looking for love die getting hit by automobiles. Same with female deer. One reason it looks like

so many more deer are dying on highways is there are more of them and fewer natural predators like wolves, Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden director Thane Maynard told me. Sadly, pets and wild animals lose their lives every day. We swerve around them in our automobiles with the windows up and the air conditioner humming. Then they disappear, usually within 24 hours.

During the campaign for Cincinnati City Council in 2017, a few candidates complained that future Councilman Jeff Pastor handed out money from the charitable foundation he ran to win votes from local church congregations. Federal tax records reviewed Wednesday by The Enquirer show the foundation gave $310,000 that year to a dozen Hamilton County churches, all but one of which had never before received a donation from Pastor's foundation. Most of the churches received $25,000 for "general support" from the Charles L. Shor Foundation for Epilepsy Research, according to the tax return fi led with the Internal Revenue Service. Pastor was the foundation's director at the time. In the four years prior to 2017, tax records show, the foundation gave to Cincinnati churches or temples on two occasions. Pastor declined comment Wednesday and Shor did not return a call. When the complaints arose last year, Pastor told The Enquirer he had done nothing wrong and said questions about the foundation were "off ensive." Speaking to church congregations is a long-standing tradition among City Council candidates because it allows them to get their messages to a large number of potential voters. Ten of the churches that received money from the foundation are in Cincinnati. The other two are in Forest Park but have large congregations that draw from the city. See PASTOR, Page 2A

After city worker fatally electrocuted, state found bureau poorly out of safety standards Cameron Knight Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

After a city electrical worker was fatally electrocuted recently, it took state investigators less than a week to ﬁ nd serious safety concerns in that worker's bureau, according to that worker's union president.

Maurice Brown, president of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Workers (AFSCME) Local 250, told The Enquirer Monday, June 24 that the death of Leroy Garrison Jr. pulled back the curtain of the traﬃ c services bureau inside the Department of Public Services. Brown said investigators examined

skunk. Surprisingly, skunks don't give oﬀ much of an odor until has to move them. Then, Jackson believes they seem to give oﬀ a postmortem spray. "Even in death, he's got one pee left," Jackson said. Anyone who called to have an animal picked up after 3 p.m. Friday was out of luck, so when we reached Deb Hunt's house in Westwood early Monday morning, she was mad as a honey badger. Hunt had double-bagged a 20pound raccoon, placed him in a bucket

placed the bucket in the trash bin. Jackson was conciliatory. He'll do better next time. He explained he's the only city employee assigned to this particular job. There used to be two. Hunt knew this and would shoot the messenger; nevertheless, she was hot. "No, I'm calling the mayor!" she said. She should not have had to handle a dead raccoon that could have been rabid or worse, she said. And the city of Cincinnati should solve the problem.

Crisis mitigated, we continued to whittle down the list from over the weekend. A deer in Bond Hill. A cat in Westwood. A raccoon in Madisonville. Jackson sincerely loves his job. It offers him solitude and autonomy. He is task-oriented in a job ﬁ lled with daily tasks. We can all agree that he is performing an invaluable service. There has been a steady supply of dogs and cats, possums and raccoons to pick up. Some are pets, and Jackson sometimes shows the compassion of a funeral director. But he's had some doozies: a bloated, pot-bellied pig that "took every ounce of strength" he had to get into the truck," rats and even a donkey. We drove down Interstate 75 with a truckload full of roadkill en route to the sanitation facilities base on Millcreek Road. Rumpke will handle them from here. I asked Jackson to reﬂ ect on what it means to be the front-line roadkill guy. "If it were not for me, the streets would be infested with dead carcasses all over the city. Anyone would be coming outside and smelling all kinds of crap. Instead, I smell it for you and I take care of it," he said. And for that, Mr. Jackson, thank you. Thank you very much.

the donations revealed in the tax records suggest Pastor bent campaign ﬁ nance rules to gain an advantage. "Dropping that much money in front of a congregation after early voting had started is dirty," Dillingham said. "That's the word I think of. It's dirty politics." The tax records, which recently became available, do not specify when the donations were made. But at least one other candidate and a pastor whose church received money said the contributions arrived during the campaign. Shor, whose family founded the Florence-based Duro Bag Manufacturing Co., has said he had an epileptic episode as a young man and established the foundation in 2003 to aid in epilepsy research. Jim Yunker, a fundraising consultant with the Cincinnati-based Yunker Group, said there's nothing wrong with a foundation giving to a wide range of charities, even if those charities don't clearly align with the name or mission of the foundation. "I'm sure he's being truthful about what the money was being used for,"

said Yunker, who has no connection to Pastor or the foundation he used to run. "Just the timing and the nature of those gifts is very unusual." Dillingham said Shor, who was a friend and mentor to Pastor, was able to exert an unfair infl uence over the election through the foundation. Dillingham fi nished 10th in the council fi eld race, missing the fi nal seat on council that went to Pastor by 223 votes. "In a fi eld race, it's important we are all playing by the same rules," Dillingham said. "The concern is really not even about Pastor or his party," she said. "This kind of unfair infl uence with big money is not good for democracy." Laure Quinlivan, a former council member who also lost in 2017, said she saw Pastor speak to the congregation at Greater New Hope Missionary Baptist Church less than a month before the election to announce the foundation was donating $25,000 so the Walnut Hills church could start a jobs program. The tax records show Greater New Hope in East Walnut Hills did receive $25,000 from the foundation in 2017. "I was shocked this candidate was brazenly passing out big checks from a medical foundation to local church pastors right before the election, in what appeared to be his eff ort to buy the vote," Quinlivan said last year, after the election. Some of the leaders of the churches said they didn't consider the contributions political in nature. Bishop Bobby Hilton, leader of Word of Deliverance Ministries in Forest Park, said the $35,000 his church received went toward college scholarships. Because the church isn't within city limits, Hilton said, he did not see how the donation would have been politically motivated. "Absolutely not," Hilton said. The Rev. KZ Smith, who leads Corinthian Baptist Church in Bond Hill, said the $25,000 his church received was used to help needy congregants. Pastor accepted his invitation to speak to the congregation about the gift, Smith said, but the then-candidate did not talk about the campaign. "I can see why people think so," Smith said of complaints about political motivations. "But I didn't see anything wrong." According to the tax records, the foundation gave a total of $1.4 million in charitable gifts in 2017. Recipients included the United Way, the Cincinnati Zoo, the University of Cincinnati Foundation and the Cleveland Clinic. The $310,000 in donations to Cincinnati-area churches represented 22% of the foundation's giving in 2017. During the previous year, the foundation gave to two local houses of worship: the Isaac

Wise Temple in Amberley Village and Downtown, which received $55,100, and New Prospect Baptist Church, which got $181,500 to help build a new gym. Roselawn-based New Prospect is the only Cincinnati-area church to receive a donation in both 2016 and 2017. No local churches received money from the foundation in 2013, 2014 and 2015, according to tax records. Pastor became director of the Charles L. Shor foundation in 2017, earning a salary of $37,469. He no longer works for the charity. The foundation's total of $1.4 million in contributions in 2017 were by far the largest in its 15-year history. The foundation donated a total of $1 million in 2016 and less than $500,000 in 2015. The Shor foundation's tax return or Form 990 for 2017, which was fi led in November 2018, is the most recent available. Hamilton County's Democratic Party chairwoman, Gwen McFarlin, described the donations as "shameless." "It's always good to give to a church for the right reasons, but it appears Councilman Pastor shifted money away from epilepsy research as he ran for offi ce into churches whose members he was trying to sway," she said. County GOP Chairman Alex Triantafi lou declined comment when called, but defended Pastor in Facebook post Friday morning, saying "Interesting times. Giving private money to charity is now 'shameless.' Really? Yet wasting millions of taxpayer dollars at City Hall on streetcars and illegal texting by Democrats is not? The Democrats are out of touch. (Pastor) helped his community." The 12 Hamilton County churches that received money from the foundation were: ❚ Word of Deliverance Ministries, Forest Park - $35,000. ❚ Corinthian Baptist Church, Bond Hill - $25,000. ❚ Greater New Hope Missionary Baptist Church, East Walnut Hills $25,000. ❚ New Friendship Baptist Church, Avondale - $25,000. ❚ New Jerusalem Baptist Church, Carthage - $25,000. ❚ New Prospect Baptist Church, Roselawn - $25,000. ❚ New St. John Baptist Church, Avondale - $25,000. ❚ Southern Baptist Church, Avondale - $25,000. ❚ Truth & Destiny Covenant, Mount Airy - $25,000. ❚ Zion Temple First Pentecostal Church, Avondale - $25,000. ❚ Bloc Ministries, East Price Hill $25,000. ❚ Inspirational Baptist Church, Forest Park - $25,000.

So, I spent Monday morning with Jackson. We had a clipboard full of calls from over the weekend. It was showtime. "Are you ready?" Jackson asked with a devilish grin. I took the gloves he handed me. Our fi rst stop was in Price Hill, where on Saturday someone reported a dead dog in the road. There he was, a 100-pound American terrier mix, fully intact, dead as a doornail. I am a farm boy, and sometimes we burned the carcasses of livestock we lost. But this was a lot for even me to handle. Public Information Offi cer Courtney Hauser, standing nearby said a Hail Mary. I grabbed the dog's collar, dragged it onto the hydraulic lift and into the vinyl-lined bed of Jackson's city-issued Ford pick-up. We would repeat this a few times, but not rinse until later. Cleaning up roadkill is not for the faint of heart. The stench can be nauseating. You deal with fl ies and fl y larva. Skunks are the worst, said Jackson. Their stench "gets in your throat," he said. That's the only time he wears a face mask, which is about as ineff ective as the cardboard pine tree on the rear-view mirror. Everyone back at headquarters knows when Jackson has encountered a

In the run-up to the election, two candidates and the then-Democratic Party chairman complained that Pastor, a Republican, was trying to curry favor with the churches by donating money. At the time, they didn't know how much he'd given and Pastor wouldn't say. Michelle Dillingham, who narrowly lost to Pastor in the 2017 election, said

to a boil. Lower heat and simmer until berries start to burst and juices start to thicken. Smoosh berries against the side of pan, until most are crushed and this will help the process along.

First, start out with a basic crust that has been “blind baked.” What that means is the crust is baked ahead of time and simply ﬁ lled. For step by step instructions on blind baking, check out my abouteating.com site.

Whisk cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water together. Stirring constantly, add to blueberries, along with sugar and lemon juice.

So now that you’ve got the crust baked, here’s how to make the delicious, and might I say, very pretty, ﬁ lling.

Simmer a couple of minutes or until mixture becomes translucent and slightly thickened. Take it off heat immediately and fold in remaining 3 cups berries.

Filling Ingredients 4 cups fresh clean blueberries

Spoon into baked, cooled pie shell.

⁄ 2 cup plus 2 tablespoons water, divided

Let sit at room temperature for at least 2 hours before serving to set up. Yes, that’s right. Do not refrigerate. Make it in the morning and serve in the evening.

2 tablespoons cornstarch ⁄ 2 cup sugar or bit more to taste

1-2 teaspoons lemon juice Instructions

Serve with sweetened whipped cream or streusel topping.

Measure out 1 cup blueberries. Put in pan with 1⁄ 2 cup water. Cover and bring

Blueberries are in season! I still remember fondly (some of you will, too) taking the little ones to Rouster’s Farm in Clermont County when they were still open to pick blueberries. If you have a source, do support those farmers and pick to your heart’s content. Fresh blueberries can be frozen, too. This pie originated with friend and excellent cook and baker, Carol Ta-

bone. What I love is the ﬁ lling is cooked on the stove. Carol serves her fresh blueberry pie with whipped cream. Every once in a while, I like a streusel topping. The streusel topping is baked separately ahead of time on a cookie sheet and just sprinkled on top – pretty clever, huh? Let me know which topping you decide to use. Freeze blueberries the right way Freeze unwashed in single layer on cookie sheet, uncovered, until hard. Pour into containers. To use, place in colander and rinse.

Crunchy, buttery streusel topping

Instructions

Can be made several days ahead and stored in refrigerator.

Preheat oven to 350. Just whisk dry ingredients, pour in butter and toss with fork until crumbly. I like to leave some big lumps in, along with little ones.

Sprinkle on ﬁ nished pie. Ingredients ⁄ 4 cup flour

Pour onto baking pan and bake 8-10 minutes or so, stirring once. Keep an eye on it — streusel turns golden fairly quick after the 8 minutes.

3 tablespoons light brown sugar, packed 1 tablespoon sugar

Cool and sprinkle on pie.

5 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled a bit

Tip: Excellent for fruit pies.Try adding a shake of cinnamon.

The Facts About Hearing Loss ADVERTISEMENT

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."

electrical maintenance while the death is investigated. Brown said investigators with Ohio's Public Employee Risk Reduction Program agreed. He said the bureau was "so poorly out of (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) standards" it had to be shut down. He added that the investigators said many employees in that bureau need to be retrained on safety. "I didn't think they'd be so far below OSHA standards," Brown said. On June 17, emergency crews responded to the Hawaiian Terrace apartment complex in Mount Airy after 911 callers reported hearing unusual noises and possibly issues with their power, police said. The Cincinnati Fire Department said fi refi ghters saw "active wires covering the bucket" of a City Public Services truck and called Duke Energy to shut off the power.

Once that was completed, Garrison was found inside the bucket, oﬃ cials said. He was pronounced dead at the scene. The Hamilton County Coroner's Ofﬁ ce said the death was an "apparent electrocution." Police said Garrison was working alone. Brown said that was true, but he arrived at the scene with two other workers who left before Garrison was shocked. In response to Garrison's death, City Councilman P.G. Sittenfeld completed a city motion Monday, June 24 that calls for a review of safety for the city's public workers and ramped up oversight. The motion calls for data on line-ofduty fatalities to be collected and regular reports from Department of Public Services to City Council. Sittenfeld also wants the suspension of non-emergency electrical work to stay in place until there is "clear and evident proof that workers have been issued OSHA-approved and recommended personal protective equipment, including work clothing and tools."

What do you do when your bird gets stuck in a tree? No, it's not a joke. You call the ﬁ re department. The Colerain Township Fire Department recently rescued Gigi, a 28-year-old Macaw from a tree. "Gigi climbed a tree yesterday and got stranded about 60 feet up for over

24 hours. These birds have never fl own so Gigi had no idea how to get down," offi cials said. Offi cers had to go out on a limb to rescue the bird. Well, not like that. The bird was scared of the helmets and gloves so, "we had to go without," offi cers said. "Gloves would have helped," they quipped on social media.

Chicago Bears grab David Montgomery of Mount Healthy Third-round pick also named one of the Big 12 Sportspersons of Year Scott Springer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

The third-round pick of the Chicago Bears in the recent NFL Draft, David Montgomery of Mount Healthy High School, has been named one of the Big 12's Sportspersons of the Year. At Iowa State, Montgomery has earned All-America honors. Montgomery was third in the Big 12 in rushing averaging 101.3 yards per game in his junior season. He also went over 1,000 yards for the second straight season (1,216) and is the eighth Cyclone to have multiple such seasons. Montgomery displayed leadership oﬀ the ﬁ eld in his relationship with Hunter Erb, a 6-year-old who has pulmonary vein stenosis. He would see him weekly and bring him to practice. Montgomery also routinely made hospital and elementary school visits as well as engaging in other non-football activities. At home, he sends his brother Maceo, $100 every couple of weeks for family needs. Maceo is in prison and Montgomery's path to the NFL hasn't been an

easy one as The Enquirer has documented in the past. Montgomery shares the award with Lauren Cox of Baylor women's basketball and the Kansas State rowing team. The Sportsperson of the Year award recognizes Big 12 student-athletes who display an extraordinary degree of sportsmanship, community service and academic achievement. As a Mount Healthy Owl, Montgomery was the proverbial Swiss army knife for Arvie Crouch's Owls. He kicked oﬀ , played quarterback, punted, kicked extra points, returned kicks and played defense when the team needed a crucial stop. He ran for 6,666 yards and 91 touchdowns over his career and gained 200-plus yards 13 times. He was Southwest Ohio Conference Player of the Year his junior and senior seasons for Mount Healthy coach Arvie Crouch. Montgomery signed a four-year contract with Chicago earlier this month. The Cincinnati-based company Pro Football Focus details the most impressive stat on the elusive running back: Montgomery led all of college football in forced missed tackles the last two seasons with 109 in 2017 and 100 last fall.

ST. BERNARD - Since he burst onto Bron Bacevich Field at Roger Bacon High School Corey Kiner has been on the local recruiting radar. The 5-10, 205pound elusive runner just returned from Ohio State where he has an off er and recently picked up another from Arkansas. Also in Kiner's corner are off ers from Cincinnati, Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan State, Minnesota, Penn State, Nebraska, Purdue, Kentucky, Louisville, Pittsburgh, Boston College, West Virginia, Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Missouri, Akron and Toledo. While it's common for athletes to announce their decisions via Twitter or Instagram, not many have done it with the fl air of Kiner courtesy of Roger Bacon Assistant Athletic Director Brandon Spaeth. Spaeth has perfected the art of enhancing a Twitter post with Edits, as in an enhanced photo with other images, like team logos. In Kiner's case, he's taken the clever twist of adding an item to personalize each one. Thus, with his recent Arkansas off er, a Razorback hog looms in the background. Missouri's post showed Kiner next to a Tiger, Vanderbilt's had him carrying a Commodore anchor, West Virginia saw a Mountaineer hat on Kiner's helmet and Nebraska featured an ear of corn being carried. Kiner is not only blessed with raw talent but also with a talented illustrator. The two often share lunches together to spitball ideas for coming offers. "He was like, 'Let me show you something,'" Kiner said of the initial edits. "Everybody else in the school liked them. I posted them on Twitter and it took off from there." Kiner's postings have led to added business for Spaeth, In addition to posting for other Roger Bacon athletes, Division I football recruits from other schools, like Daved Jones Jr. of Lakota West, have utilized Spaeth's talents. "One thing we try to do at Roger Bacon is be on top of everything, be the fi rst one to the party," Spaeth said. "Twenty-one off ers (for Kiner) that's a chance to get better and better at my craft. It's become sort of a hobby for me as nerdy as it sounds." Kiner with two years of prep football left is in no hurry to announce his college decision and plans to take more visits, so more edits will be coming. He

mentions Clemson, Texas A&M, Purdue and Michigan and he just recently zipped down Vine Street to check out the Cincinnati Bearcats again before taking his Ohio State visit. While he doesn't necessarily have a favorite school, he does have favorite edits. "I had the (OSU) Buckeye in my hand," Kiner said. "It took me three days to realize I had a buckeye in my hand. Then, I was running out of a gopher hole with the (Minnesota) Gopher. I didn't notice that either. It looks like I was actually carrying a gopher." Minnesota also tops Brandon Spaeth's list. "Once I did that one, I knew this was fun," Spaeth said. "If you look at it, he's literally holding a gopher and it looks so real. He's coming out of a gopher hole and in the background, there's dust that comes out." Kiner's numbers tell the non-pictorial story As a freshman, he ran for 1,226 yards in nine games, including 302 against Western Hills. Last season, he led the Spartans with 1,740 yards and 26 touchdowns. He had 296 yards in a road game at Huron and ﬁ nished the season with 245 against Purcell Marian. Kiner has read on chat boards every year that he's heading to another school, but says he went to St. Clement with most of his classmates and is content with his decision to come down the street to Roger Bacon where his father, Clifton, once played. The elder Kiner has oﬀ ered solid advice to Corey's recruiting process. "On your worst day it's somebody else's best day," Kiner said repeating his father's words. "Take it all in. Be happy for everything that I have. Talk to every coach I can and just take my time. There's no rush for anything."

SHARONVILLE – Mancuso Field at Viking Stadium is named after legendary Princeton coach Pat Mancuso who delivered three Ohio state titles (1978, 1983, 1987) and led the Vikings to six state semifi nal appearances. However, the gridiron off Chester Road might soon see an array of Division I talent never before seen in Princeton red. In his third year of coaching his alma mater is former University of Cincinnati receiver Mike Daniels. The goal of every school in the Greater Miami Conference is to knock off Colerain, who has had at least a part of every league title since 2000. Princeton

last shared the billing in 2003. On paper, the Vikings have to be considered one of the league favorites. "We're blessed," Daniels said. "We've got some kids that can run around, some good looking kids. It's a great day to be a Viking!" Currently, fi ve Vikings have Division I off ers and more could join that list. Most notable is Paris Johnson Jr. At 6foot-7 and 290 pounds, Johnson is not only the top-rated off ensive lineman in Ohio, according to 247sports.com, but he's also tops in the country. Johnson has transferred to Princeton from St. Xavier and will be leaving midterm to join the Ohio State Buckeyes. St. Xavier does not permit early graduation.

"The whole point of this whole transition was to be in school (OSU) in January," Johnson said. "I'll get spring ball, spring practice, start my career early, get used to the campus, the adjustments to the game and all that." In Johnson's case, he's looking forward to the changes Ohio State Assistant AD for Sports Performance Mickey Marotti can make to his burly frame. With Johnson leading Princeton's offensive line, the Vikings have several enticing specimens on defense. Defensive lineman Darrion Henry is nearly 6foot-5 and 280 pounds and athletic enough to have played basketball at Princeton with ﬁ rst-round NBA draft See PRINCETON, Page 2B

SCHOOL NEWS NWLSD offering Pre-AP Camp Northwest Local School District (NWLSD) is hosting its fi rst ever Pre-AP Camp for students entering 9th grade in the 2019-2020 school year. Incoming freshmen at Colerain High School (CHS) and Northwest High School (NWHS) have the opportunity to participate in a week-long program that will off er each student the opportunity to collaborate with their peers intellectually while developing the skills necessary to be successful in Honors and Advanced Placement (AP) courses. The camp, which will be taught by NWLSD teachers, is being off ered this summer throughout the weeks of July 29 and August 5. The establishment of the Pre-AP Camp was a collaborative eff ort between CHS Principal Jack Fisher and NWHS Principal Susan Smith to create a program that would help students develop the select set of skills needed to take Honors, AP, College Credit Plus and other high-level courses. “These camps focus on teaching students to hone skills related to research and problem-based learning. This combined eff ort between CHS and NWHS is just one example of our fi ve-year high school redesign process,” said Jack Fisher. “We hope to create new programs and opportunities for all of our students over the course of the next few years. The future is bright in the NWLSD.” The theme of the week aligns with High School Redesign, a project that encourages students to be a part of creating what high school should look like in 5 years. The students in the program are required to create a visual representation of the ideal classroom and to put together a presentation that explains how their proposal best prepares students for the future. They are to present their ideas to a panel of leaders, who will grade them on their individual classwork, their developed thesis and the research that went into their project. The program is free of charge and is open to any NWLSD 9th grade student interested in taking AP and Honors courses. This year there are 169 students participating: 43 percent of the students are minorities and 55 of the 169 students are economically disadvantaged. “As a district we are continuously looking for opportunities to increase student diversity in our upper level academic programs. It is exciting to see diverse groups of students from across the district learning and growing together during this week-long experience,” said Brenda Miller, NWLSD Director of Instructional Accountability. “Through their presentations, the students gave us many innovative ideas to consider as we strive to redesign teaching and learning and ensure that all of our students graduate future-ready.” NWLSD has added over 20 new high school course off erings for the upcoming school year. The broad options will allow students more choices in the courses that they elect to take. Two of the new courses that will be off ered to incoming 9th grade students are AP Human Geography and AP World History. For more information about the Pre-Ap Camp, please contact Brenda Miller, NWLSD Director of Instructional Accountability, at bmiller2@nwlsd.org or by phone at 513-923-1000 ext. 3925.

For Heidi Stickney, Assistant Director of Curriculum and Special Education for Northwest Local Schools, this opportunity is a win for everyone. “What a great opportunity for our teachers and students,” said Stickney. “This will no doubt help us match students with career readiness programs that will prepare them for competitive employment and post secondary opportunities.” Lyndsey Creecy, Northwest Local School District

“What is perseverance?” said his teacher Melanie Siciliano. “Perseverance is the ability to go on when things seem impossible. It is also a measure of success, or at least how much sacrifi ce one is willing to make in the name of success. As a student, it is impossible to achieve personal success without having a vision or a direction in mind. Perseverance is the ability to forge ahead despite setbacks that may threaten to undermine all eff orts to succeed. Sean Howard has set a shining example of perseverance by overcoming many obstacles that he encountered throughout the school day and within the school year.” “Sean sees failure as a learning opportunity to rise and reach success. With positive reinforcement, words of encouragement, and an individual fl exible schedule, Sean has risen to the top and has proven to be a true Winton Woods Warrior. Sean exemplifi es respect when working with his peers and his teachers, responsibility when following classroom expectations, and trust when communicating his needs or wants. If challenges arise, I know he will meet them with courage and a strong will to succeed. With these qualities at the forefront, there is no limit to what Sean will achieve in the future.” Drew Jackson, Winton Woods City Schools

Pleasant Run Middle School welcomes new principal The Northwest Local School District (NWLSD) welcomes Brad Watkins as the new principal of Pleasant Run Middle School (PRMS). Watkins has been working for Northwest Local Schools since 2015. He currently serves as the athletic director and the assistant principal at Northwest High School (NHS). Watkins brings a wealth of experience, serving over seven years as an ad- Brad ministrator. Prior to working at NHS, he Watkins served as the assistant principal for Hamilton Freshman School and as an interim assistant principal for Hamilton High School. “I became a member of the Northwest Local School family four years ago when I began working in my current administrative role and I immediately fell in love with both the community and the District,” said Watkins. “Over the years, I’ve become familiar with the Pleasant Run student centered staﬀ and the tremendous group of students that are here.” Watkins is originally from Southwest Ohio. He graduated from California University of Pennsylvania with a bachelor’s in special education; he later received his master’s in educational leadership from the University of Cincinnati in 2011. The new role will commence on August 1, at the beginning of the 2019-2020 school year. Lyndsey Creecy, Northwest Local Township

length with helping him get to quarterbacks. "We also have to stay humble and stay focused on week one," Thomas said. "But, it does feel like a championship team." Another linebacker that might have been below-the-radar is now committed. Juan Jarrett enjoyed his visit to Kansas with coach Les Miles so much that he's verbally a Jayhawk. Prior to his trip, Daniels spoke in glowing terms about Jarrett. "I think he's the most underrated

player in the state," Daniels said. "He's a freakishly athletic kid. I think he's going to have a great year." At defensive back, Elijah Eberhardt has committed to Bowling Green. At quarterback, Myjaden "MJ" Horton is a possibility having come over from La Salle where he started last season. He previously played at Lakota West, so will have some familiarity with the Greater Miami Conference. The current crew of Vikings is set to begin the 2019 campaign in late August at Milford.

Age group water polo growing for little tikes The Ohio Squirrels Water Polo Club (Cincinnati, OH) has been around for over 10 years. During those 10 years, there has been a primary focus on Co-ed Masters Water Polo. Co-ed Masters Water Polo is players that are in college or beyond college that want to continue to play the sport. Think of an adult basketball league – it is a great way to continue to participate in the sport and meet people like that. Also during those 10 years, the team has grown up and started building families. “We have a lot of players that have gotten married and started having kids. Well, those kids now are old enough to start doing what their parents do – play water polo – and we want to help them.” Jeﬀ Clemens, age 38, been with the club for 5 years and is one of the three coaches of the club. At home or away tournaments, often times you will see a contingent of kids that are cheering on the club as they compete. They are dressed up with their Ohio Squirrels Gear and chanting “Go Squirrels.” For the players on the club, this is a way for their kids (and other interested kids) to get in the water and start learning the game like their parents once did. In the Cincinnati area, there are 3 major age group programs – Moose Water Polo Club, Cincinnati Mar-

lins Water Polo Club and Queen City Water Polo Club. For the most part, all of those clubs’ primary focus is on kids ages 11 – 18. In some instances, like Cincinnati Marlins, they will do an introductory clinic to encourage kids younger than 11 to participate. “We want to show kids at the younger age that this is a very fun sport and so we put on small clinics around the city to drive that. A lot of our players have younger brothers and sisters and we want them to be involved too.” Nick Hellwig, age 36, Coach of the Cincinnati Marlins Water Polo Club and has been with the Ohio Squirrels for 6 years. On June 15, the Ohio Squirrels Water Polo Club hosted their ﬁ rst Cincinnati Splash Water Polo event at Evendale Recreation Center. Twelve children partici-

pated ranging from ages 4 to 12. The participants learned fundamentals such as swimming with the ball, passing, shooting, being a good teammate and water safety. Several parents joined in the water too to be a part of the experience. “Water polo has to be a family sport at this level (and really at all levels). Like soccer, the mom and dad could be out there with their kid showing them how to kick the ball, pass and shoot. This is no diff erent with water polo – the kids feel safer and have more fun when their parents are with them. We embrace parent involvement 100%.” While June 15 has passed, the club has two more events where you can still participate: ❚ Evendale Recreation Center (outdoor) ❚ 10500 Reading Road, Cincinnati, OH 45241 ❚ July 13 from 10-11 a.m. ❚ July 27 from 10-11 a.m. Reach out to register ohio.squirrels@gmail.com for registration link or go to our Twitter or Facebook Page to fi nd the link.
