Three dead in Clermont County Tornado devastates the village of Moscow BY KRISTIN BEDNARSKI Sun staff

A tornado tore through southern Clermont County March 2 during a violent storm that left three people dead and dozens of homes damaged or de-

stroyed. The fatalities occurred in the village of Moscow and Tate Township, areas that were affected most by the storm and the F3 tornado that originated in Campbell County, traveled across the Ohio River through

Moscow and covered nearly 20 miles. “It got real dark and quiet,” Linda Sisson, a Moscow resident, said about the storm. “When the rain came down it sounded like hail. We could just feel the house rocking.” Sisson, who lives on 3rd Street in the village, said her house was not badly damaged but when she went outside, she could not be-

lieve what she saw. “I am 51 and never did I think it would get this town,” she said about a tornado. “But it did.” Vicky Dale, another Moscow resident who lives on Broadway Street, said she was in her house when she heard sirens going off. She said she had her children come downstairs and

Community supporting tornado victims Dozens of organizations, churches are offering help BY KRISTIN BEDNARSKI Sun staff

Almost immediately after storms ripped through Clermont County March 2, local organizations, churches and individuals began providing help for storm victims. “During these times there is an outpour of support,” Commissioner Bob Proud said during a press conference March 3. Emergency shelters were opened quickly in both New Richmond and Bethel for residents who were displaced by the March 2 storm. In the following days, county officials along with

the Red Cross began to organize donation centers, where people can take supplies and donations to help those in need, and pick-up centers where residents can retrieve supplies. By March 6, several centers had been set up, including a donation center at the Clermont County Fairgrounds 4-H Hall in Owensville that has already delivered 20 truckloads of supplies to Felicity, Moscow, and New Richmond.

Wiedenbein defeats Uible by 1,100 votes Incumbent clerk looking forward to another term BY KRISTIN BEDNARSKI Sun staff

Incumbent Clermont County Clerk of Common Pleas Barb Wiedenbein defeated her Republican opponent David Uible in the primary election March 6. She does not have a Democratic opponent in the No-

vember election. “I am so grateful to the voters,” Wiedenbein said after the unofficial results came in. “And saying I am grateful doesn't seem like enough.” Wiedenbein defeated Uible by 1,100 votes. She received 13,349 votes, or 52.15 percent, while Uible

received 12,249 votes, or 47.85 percent. Wiedenbein moved to Clermont County Wiedenbein when she was 9 years old. She graduated from Milford High School and lived in Texas and Florida before moving back home.

She was first elected as clerk in 2005, and since then said she has worked to build a solid foundation at the office by developing relationships with employees and working to make sure things run smoothly. She said she ran for reelection because she enjoys all facets of the job and is not ready to retire. “The law to me is just very interesting,” Wiedenbein said before the election. “It is something

different every day.” She said her plans for the future are to continue to pursue e-filing, work to have information available online for attorneys and do what is needed to keep the office running efficiently. “I have some things I would like to complete and I am looking forward to that,” Wiedenbein said. Election results are unofficial until the Board of Elections certifies them in the coming weeks.

Faris: Will be on Nov. ballot office several years ago and would like the opportunity to represent county officials. Faris graduated from the University of Kentucky in 1976 and the University of Toledo College of Law in 1980. He became assistant prosecutor in Clermont County in 1981 and joined the law firm Walker, Brad-

ford and Hill in 1987. In 2006, he formed his private practice, Faris and Faris, with his wife and has also served as assistant public defender. “I intend to be a full-time prosecutor and give up my practice completely,” Faris said before the election. “I would intend on being in court on a regular basis.” Faris said being full time avoids the conflicts prose-

cutors may have when they also represent private clients. “I just have a real interest in being the prosecutor and representing county officials in cases,” Faris said before the election.

Church loses bell tower Help: Community lends a hand

Editor

The tornado that tore across Clermont County March 2, destroying property and taking lives on its way, tore down the bell tower of the Calvary Baptist Church. The historic church, which has stood on Route 756 in Washington Township for the past 140 years, also lost much of its roof, but sustained only minor damage inside the building. The homes of church members were spared in the storm, and so the congregation went right to work helping those in the community who were impacted by the tornado. Working with New Haven Missionary Baptist Church in Norwood, the congregation started getting supplies to those in need. “Since the inside of the church was OK, we set up a distribution center to help the families that have lost their homes,” McDaniel said. “It has been awesome to see the outpouring of love and support from everybody.” He said that just as quickly as people would stop at the church as pick up supplies, someone else would stop and make a donation. “We will rebuild,” McDaniel said. “But people are more important that a

bell tower. We’re continuing with the mission of the church. It’s such a blessing to be able to help.” He said that the church has had plenty of help in reaching out to those in need, with people as close

as Cincinnati and as far away as Massachusetts calling to make donations. “God is using this to bring the community together and really show his love and mercy,” McDaniel said.

Wenstrup: Ousts Schmidt Continued from page A1

Wenstrup, who is a Cincinnati doctor, said he didn't grow up wanting to be a politician, but after joining the United States Army Reserves and being deployed to Iraq, he said he became more involved with the Republican party and speaking with residents in the community.

“Along the way people kept saying you need to run for office,” Wenstrup said before the election. “It just kept coming from people." He said prior to the election that he made the decision to run for office after he realized his experience, both as a doctor and in the military, made him a candidate that can understand issues affecting citizens. He also said leadership and

honesty are traits that are lacking in representatives. “I think people want to be able to look at their congress person and say 'I trust you,'” Wenstrup said. Wenstrup will be the Republican candidate on the November ballot where he will face Democratic candidate William Smith, who defeated his opponent David Krikorian March 6.

they took cover in the living room. “We stood there in the living room and the whole house just shook,” Dale said. “I heard cracking and my front window came off.” Dale said she thought about running across the street to the old bar for better shelter, but half of it was gone. “That's when I got scared,” she said. And while the line of storms died down in the evening, damage was already devastating in the village of Moscow as well as other areas in the county that were hit hard. State and local officials discussed the situation at a press conference March 3 at New Richmond High School, which was also used as a shelter after the storm. “It is very tragic we have had three fatalities,” Commissioner Bob Proud said during the press conference. Carol Forste, 64, a member of council in Moscow, James Prater, 54, of Bethel, and Bill Adkins, 58, of Bethel, died as a result of the severe weather. In addition, many other residents were forced to seek shelter and assistance after their homes were damaged the night of the storms. “These things are unpredictable, but they are devastating,” Governor John Kasich said about the tornado. “Probably the biggest challenge we're going to have is housing.” According to initial building inspections, more than 50 homes or structures in Moscow and Washington Township had serious damage after the storm and more than 100 had minor damage. Franklin Township and Tate Township also had significant damages. “It is amazing to me there was not a greater loss of life,” Sheriff Tim Roden-

berg said. “We are very fortunate.” Sheriff Rodenberg, as well as many other police, fire fighters and first responders, worked through the night to help provide assistance to residents affected by the storms. And in the following days, worked to secure the areas that he called 'treacherous.' He said the county has not seen this kind of devastation since the 1997 flood, which happened the same time of year. Sheriff Rodenberg and other officials explained that assessing all of the damage and organizing clean-up efforts would be the next steps for the county. Representatives from Duke Energy the Ohio Emergency Management Agency and the Red Cross also discussed their efforts to help residents in need. “To me the number one effort is to start to pick up the debris,” Governor Kasich said. “The aftermath is like a bomb went off.” Governor Kasich said that especially in the village of Moscow, residents have

no place to go because so many homes were destroyed. He said officials from the state will continue to provide assistance in Clermont County including the Ohio EMA, Ohio Department of Transportation, Ohio State Highway Patrol and more. Originally, Governor Kasich did not seek federal assistance in Ohio, but after assessing damage in the concentrated areas, representatives from the Federal Emergency Management Agency were sent to Clermont County March 6 to survey damage from the storm. Teams were sent to the village of Moscow, Bethel, Tate Township and Franklin Township to conduct assessments. A small contingent of Ohio Army National Guardsmen was also deployed to the Moscow area this week to assist in cleanup efforts. “We're knocked down but we're not knocked out,” Governor John Kasich said during the press conference. “We're going to get through it.”

Church is one of the locations set up for residents to pick up supplies, and the basement is packed full of items ranging from shampoo to granola bars. “We're within walking distance,” Jerry Dickens, a paramedic with the Red Cross, said about the disaster relief center at the church. “That is a big thing here. Some folks have lost their transportation.” Supplies available at the church include canned food, blankets and pillows, cleaning supplies, flashlights, toiletries and more. Dickens said the need for the supplies was pretty big in the days following the storm. Several trailers were also set up on Wells Street in the village of Moscow March 5 to provide services to residents in the village. Representatives from Clermont Department of Job and Family Services, Clermont Building Department, the Red Cross, the Mental Health and Recovery Board and other agencies were available to speak with those affected by the storms. Lori Brown, of Clermont Department of Job and Family Services, said they are trying to help people obtain the items they need including important documents that were lost because of the destruction. The county also provided someone to connect residents with volunteers who could help assist in removing trees or other debris from their property. “It means a lot right now,” James Tull Jr., a Moscow resident, said the support from the community. “Especially getting building supplies and food.” Tull said the tornado destroyed most of the back side of his residence, a place he said was a dream place for him and his stepdaughter. “We're just trying to rebuild,” he said. “And hopefully the town can get through this.” Donation and assistance sites for tornado victims include:

ishable food, cleaning supplies and personal hygiene items (no clothing). Those affected by the storms can contact the church to obtain items they may need and the church will also be able to assist victims in obtaining housing vouchers and prescription medications.

win his “home state.” Watching the two campaigns in the last few days before the balloting was like watching two football teams with extremely bad cases of “fumbleitis” play against each other. Romney’s campaign had scheduled a visit to Daytona for Mitt to give a speech to a Nascar crowd, with the intention of combating his elitist image. Romney delivered the speech, and was then asked if he followed Nascar. Romney replied that he didn’t follow Nascar “as closely as some of its most ardent fans, but I have some great friends who are Nascar team owners.” Rather than capitalize on this fumble by Romney, Santorum produced a fumble of his own. Santorum, who is Catholic, stated that the speech that John F. Kennedy, the only Catholic president in America’s history, gave to a convention of Protestant ministers in Houston during the 1960 presidential campaign made him “want to vomit” (This speech is considered by historians to be one of Schwietering, Page A7

more time Washington wastes by not acting quickly to expand production, the longer it will take to achieve lower gas prices for American consumers over the long term. The White House has talked a good game on energy, but when push has come to shove – and not even taking into account the infamous Solyndra debacle – President Obama has been on the wrong side. We’re a country rich in resources, but you wouldn’t know it from the president’s policies. In 2010, he canceled lease sales in the Gulf of Mexico and off the Mid-Atlantic coast, areas where we know there to be oil and natural gas. In 2011, he put forward a new five-year lease plan for 2012-2017 that reinstitutes a moratorium in the Atlantic and Pacific Outer Continental Shelves and halves the number of lease sales under the old plan. He’s slowed down permits for deepwater and shallow water drilling in the Gulf. He’s set to impose severe new regulations on oil refiners that will only further raise prices. His cap-and-trade plan having failed in the Senate, he’s doing an end See Portman, Page A8

Washington needs to act on gas prices Anyone who’s filled up a gas tank in recent days has suffered a real hit to the wallet. Gas prices are at record levels for this time of the year, stressing family budgets that have already been stretched thin. But make no mistake about it: It’s not just a recent, seasonal issue. The problem’s been building. On President Obama’s watch, the price of gas has increased by a staggering 94 percent. Gas prices reached an all-time high last year – $3.53 per gallon – and this week the average price is already higher, at nearly $3.70 per gallon. In 2011, the average family spent an astounding $4,155 on gas. The American driver has been hard hit. So have we all as American consumers, because we buy products with built-in fuel costs incurred bringing those products to market. So at a time when millions of American are struggling amid continued high unemployment, we need an energy policy that reduces our dependence on foreign oil and ensures a supply of secure, reliable and affordable energy. We need to produce more. Expanding domestic production as much as possible is vital to helping bring down energy prices. Even though some of the new production won’t come online right away, it’ll show the oil markets that we will reduce our reliance on the OPEC cartel that controls oil prices. The

Willard “Mitt” Romney won the Arizona primary easily and also won a close contest in Michigan by beating Rick Santorum by a count of 41 percent to 38 percent. Ron Paul and Newt Gingrich made little effort in Michigan and trailed Romney and Santorum badly. Romney had been expected to win easily in Arizona and, until the past few weeks, had also been expected to win easily in Michigan. Santorum’s recent surge had him with a slight lead in Michigan a week ago, but large media buys by the Romney campaign and Romney’s “Super Pac” apparently enabled Romney to close the gap and pull out a victory in Michigan. Romney’s “Super Pac” outspent Santorum’s “Super Pac” by 2 to 1, and Romney’s campaign committee outspent Santorum’s campaign committee by 6 to 1. The “Super Pac” money constituted the largest expenditures, with Romney’s “Super Pac” spending $4.1 million, and Santorum’s “Super Pac” spending $2.1 million. It was important for Romney to win Michigan, as a defeat in Michigan, where Romney’s father had been governor, would have been humiliating. The Santorum campaign was attempting to spin the narrow defeat as a “win,” because they had “made Romney sweat” to

Instead of planning for the future we’ve been scrambling to develop short term solutions to address immediate needs; and if asked about the future, like Scarlet O’Hara we’ve been inclined to respond, “I can’t think about that right now. If I do, I’ll go crazy. I’ll think about that tomorrow.” But even as we work through these difficult times, we cannot ignore the future. The challenges we face today are great, but even greater challenges lie ahead. Consider the following: • According to the 2010 Census Clermont County’s population now stands at just under 200,000. Our rate of growth has slowed in recent years, but according to the Ohio Department of Development (ODOD), Clermont County’s population will approach 225,000 by 2020, and may reach 245,000 by 2030. This

GEORGE BROWN growth will have a profound effect on our community. For example, if you think traffic is bad now, imagine the congestion with another 50,000 to 60,000 vehicles on our roads each day.

“T

he challenges we face today are great, but even greater challenges lie ahead.” • Because of our large Boomer population Clermont County ranks third among Ohio’s 88 counties for the projected growth of its older population over the next decade. Our 60+ population will grow from about

35,000 today to over 50,000 by 2020, and may top 60,000 by 2030. How will this growth impact the health, housing, transportation, recreation, and other needs of an aging population? • Children born this year will graduate from high school in 2030. K-12 enrollment is growing and will continue to grow, while families and businesses throughout the county struggle just to pay their current level of property taxes. At the post-secondary level UC Clermont and the Grant and Live Oaks Career Centers must grow to help produce a talented and skilled workforce for the future. How will we maintain a strong educational system over the next 10-20 years?

With field offices in every region of the state – including rural areas in Southeast and Northwest Ohio – my top priority is constituent services.

A constituent from Southwest Ohio who was being denied Social Security benefits she earned recently contacted my office to try to resolve the issue with the Social Security Administration. She received a letter from SSA stating that her Social Security benefits had been terminated “as she requested” – but she had made no such request. The Ohioan was instructed to call again in 15 days, then in another 15 days, then in 48 hours. My office reached out to the SSA regional office to explain the problem. They found that nothing was in the record about her inquiry, and a change was made to ensure that she received the benefits she earned. A widow of a soldier from Stow who was killed in Vietnam asked my office to help replace several medals she had lost in a

Senator’s most important job is serving his constituents Some of the most important work that I do has nothing to do with votes cast on the Senate floor. As your senator, my most important job is serving you and helping constituents cut through red tape when dealing with the federal government. That means helping seniors access the Social Security benefits they have paid into, assisting veterans and their families in obtaining military records and medals that they earned but never received, and helping small businesses that are looking to create jobs and access federal tax credits or lending programs. In more than 200 roundtables that I have held all over the state, I’ve heard from constituents who must spend hours on the telephone correcting a paperwork problem with a federal agency. They shouldn’t have to do this, and my office is here to help ease this burden.

Six offenders participate in Main Street Project Six non-support offenders, participating in Clermont County Common Pleas Courts’ Main Street Project, made and presented 14 no-sew fleece blankets to the Clermont Department of Job and Family Services in February 2012. “The Main Street Project was developed to teach people on probation for felony nonsupport of dependents, important job skills, while having these offenders give back to the community in a positive way,” said Director of Probation for Common Pleas Court Julie Frey. “By participating in the blanket project, participants learned the importance of following directions, producing a quality product, team work, the acceptance of new job tasks and the importance of giving back to the community.” Each participant received community service hours for taking part in this project.

“The blankets will be given to children who must be removed from their homes, due to abuse or neglect,” said Erica Boller, a supervisor with the DJFS office of Children’s’ Protective Services. “The blankets will provide a source of comfort to the children in a difficult situation.” “This type of project is a win-win for everyone concerned,” said court employment specialist Elizabeth Moran. “Feedback from participants in the project was quite positive.” Employment specialist Ann Kruse added that the blanket project was a wonderful way to enforce pro-social and employment skills that are sometimes lacking in offenders. “This project will definitely be repeated,” said Frey.

40 Years Ago March 9, 1972 State issues permit for Clermont landfill The State Department of Health has issued a permit for a Clermont County landfill. Announcement was made Monday night at the annual meeting of the Health Advisory Council by Harvey Hines, county sanitarian. Hines said the permit was issued to Clermont Environmental Reclamation, Inc. for part of a 210-acre tract the firm owns on Aber Road, between US 50 and Ohio 133, in Jackson Township. Jackson Township Trustees have placed on the May primary ballot a zoning code, which would prohibit a landfill in that township. The Clermont County Health & Welfare Planning Agency has endorsed the landfill; the Clermont County Trustees and Clerks Association has voiced its disapproval of the project. Clermont County now has no place for disposal of solid waste. Two new members, one of them a woman, were elected to the Clermont County Board of Health at the Health Advisory Council’s meeting. They are Mrs. Jacqueline Williams, Bethel, who was elected to serve out the remaining year in the term of the late Carl Barbro and Baron Clift, New Richmond, who was named to complete the remaining two years of the term of Elmo Durbin, who resigned recently to work in the sheriff’s campaign of Republican candidate N. C. Ward, Batavia.

County accepts gift of 15 acres from CIP Clermont County Commissioners will formally accept a gift of 15 acres of land from Community Improvement Programs, Inc. for an access road to the University of Cincinnati branch college near Batavia. Announcement was made Friday after commissioners received a letter from William F. Jenike, UC associate vice president for planning, indicating the university’s “interest and approval of the UC drive as proposed adjacent to the Clermont General and Technical College.” CIP originally asked $45,821 for the land and commissioners offered $10,000. The land is hilly terrain, commissioners said, and

told CIP they would consider another alignment for the access road. CIP then offered the gift of the land, but commissioners refused to accept it until the letter from UC was received.

25 Years Ago March 12, 1987 Newspaper moving on Friday the 13th To the superstitious, Friday the 13th is a day to be avoided. But for the Clermont Sun Publishing Company, the day will be a start of what is hoped to be a future full of good fortune. Beginning that day, the entire Sun Company operation will move from its current offices on North Market and Main Streets to a larger, consolidated structure at 465 E. Main Street in Batavia. And though the move is less than one-half mile in distance, in terms of planning, it’s been a long voyage. The new location, formerly owned by Jay Gatchett, owner of Countryside Motors, and his sister, Sandra Bowen, was purchased by Bill and Mary Pat Latham, copublishers of the Sun Company, in mid-1986. After a zoning variance was granted by the village, remodeling began in early January. The final phases of the move including the relocation of office equipment and the tearing down and rebuilding of the printing press will begin Thursday, March 12. By March 16, the Sun Company is expected to again be in full swing.

Employment bureau avoids budget cuts The Clermont County Bureau of Employment Services was saved from the budget ax last week, but 14 others in the state will be closed immediately and 28 more could be closed by 1988. The announcement of which offices would close came last week from Roberta Steinbacher, director of the Ohio Bureau of Employment Services. Steinbacher had said last month that a number of offices, including Clermont County, faced closure because of a predicted deficit. Steinbacher outlined a fourphase plan for closing their offices. In the first phase, offices will be closed within 45 days. In the first part of the shut-downs, Clinton County’s branch in Wilm-

ington will be closed.

15 Years Ago March 13, 1997 Red Cross helps in flooded areas Flood victims in the New Richmond area found shelter, food and clothing at the American Red Cross emergency shelter at New Richmond High School. Cots and blankets lined the makeshift sleeping quarters in the gym, running the center court where children played basketball. Hot and cold meals were served in the cafeterias at both the high school and elementary school. “If you’re going hungry here, it’s just because you haven’t found the table,” said New Richmond resident Joe Wooten. These people have gone out of their way to provide us with whatever we need.” Wooten and his wife, Robin, were staying with relatives, but Robin’s sister, Barbara Sandlin, was staying at the shelter. “The shelter is our check-in point,” Mrs. Wooten said. “This is the most devastating flood we’ve ever seen here. I’ve heard some people say that this is it for them, that this time they won’t go back. Sandlin said she doesn’t know why she stays but said she’s been in New Richmond since the 1937 flood. “I guess I got river mud on my feet years ago, and now I just can’t leave it,” she said. Pets saved from flood by animal rescue unit Humans aren’t the only victims of a disaster situation, and many Clermont County pets have been rescued by an emergency organization from California. Emergency Animal Rescue Services, or EARS, set up headquarters at the county fairgrounds in Owensville last week, taking in strays found by county animal control officers. Terri Crisp, director of EARS, said the group has made 39 rescues throughout the United States, and none of the rescued animals are euthanized. “The people in disaster situations have suffered enough without finding out their family pet has been destroyed on top of everything else,” Crisp said. “We just finished a rescue after the northern California floods where we took in 878 animals. 404 were reclaimed and the rest were placed in foster homes awaiting adoption. Only 14 remain to be adopted.”

Q: What can I donate to a public school? A: Public schools may accept all types of new and used personal property, including classroom supplies, computers, musical instruments, sports equipment, and furniture. Schools may also accept real property and donations of money. Under Ohio law, donations may be made during the donor’s lifetime or through a bequest in the donor’s will. Q: Where should I direct the donation? A: Offer your donation, preferably in writing, to the school board govern-

LAW YOU CAN USE OHIO STATE BAR

ing the public school district of your choice. School boards have the discretion to accept or reject your gift on behalf of the school district. Because school boards typically meet only once or twice per month, it may be more practical for you to contact the district’s treasurer or superintendent, who can inform the board at the next meeting. You may also consider

making donations to reputable ‘booster' programs that support particular programs within a particular school or school district. Booster programs are thirdparty entities that raise funds and often make donations to the school board on behalf of their supporting members. To support public schools more generally, you can contact the educational service center (ESC) in your county or multi-county consortium for more information on making a donation. Q: Can I make a donation directly to an indi-

vidual coach, teacher or administrator? A: Probably not. Ohio’s ‘supplemental compensation statute’prohibits school district officials and employees, including coaches, teachers, and administrators from accepting any gift in exchange for the performance of his or her official duties. Q: Can I ask the school board to use my donation in a specific way? A: Yes, with a caveat. A school board is authorized to accept conditional gifts and to carry out the necessary conditions of ac-

ceptance through board action. However, a school board cannot accept a gift if the conditions attached would remove any portion of the public schools from the board’s control. For example, a board would be authorized to accept a monetary gift on the condition that it helps fund a particular program, such as band or sports, as long as the conditions do not also require the board to hire, fire, promote, retain or suspend any particular position or individual within the program. The board must retain control over the district’s personnel matters.

Continued from page 4 the great campaign speeches in American history, delivered before a hostile audience. As hard as it is to believe today, many of the ministers in the audience had been busily stirring up anti-Catholic bigotry, and continued to do so after the speech, but Kennedy’s well-reasoned case for fairness convinced the majority of American Protestants not to reject him simply because he was a Catholic). Not to be outdone, Romney responded with another fumble, referring to his wife’s “Cadillacs” in different states (Romney owns several homes in various

parts of the country). Santorum struck back by quoting President Obama’s wish that every American child should have the opportunity to go to college and commented “what a snob” (Santorum attended college and holds three degrees). Apparently parents who wish for their child what Rick Santorum already has are “snobs.” This comedy of errors brings to mind a comment by Casey Stengel, the legendary former manager of the great Yankee teams of the ‘50’s, when he witnessed the (lame) efforts of his new team, the expansion New York Mets of the early 1960’s. During spring training, Stengel evidently

couldn’t believe his eyes. Finally, he exploded “Can’t anybody here play this game?” Looking at the exit polling numbers provides some revealing insights into the Michigan primary. Santorum beat Romney among every demographic except those making over $100,000 per year, and, interestingly, Catholics. This leaves one to wonder: If Santorum had avoided the slur against J.F.K., would he have won Michigan in spite of being so badly outspent?

Schwietering: Mitt racks up victories

Paul Schwietering is a former Democratic state central committeeman. He lives in Union Township.

Senator: Serving constituents Continued from page 4 move more than 30 years ago. My office discovered that in addition to the four medals identified, the widow’s husband was also eligible for a Purple Heart, Bronze Star, and other awards for his bravery. As a proud member of the Senate Committee on Veterans’ Affairs, it is always a privilege for me to help veterans and military families obtain replacements for lost medals and new medals that servicemembers may have never received. Earlier this month, a veteran was referred to my office after being denied dental care at the Louis Stokes VA Medical Center even though he had serviceconnected disabilities. My office contacted the VA Medical Center Director who determined that an error had been made and our veteran was indeed eligible for dental care. The veteran was immediately scheduled for a comprehensive dental evaluation. Veterans and military families – who often move from base to base – may not always have easy access to the documentation and records needed to receive service-related benefits and medals. Last year, my office helped more than 500 Ohio veterans and their families find these records so that they could apply for their medals or the benefits they earned. Sometimes, there are Ohio companies who want to expand operations and hire new workers, but federal bureaucracy stands in their way. Cool Containers, LLC, a Marietta-based company, produces specialized containers used to ship high value pharmaceuticals and other temperature sensitive materials. This Ohio company struggled for years to secure approval from U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) until my office intervened. With our help, the FAA approved the PharmaPort 360™ temperature controlled shipping container developed and manufactured by Cool Containers, LLC for use in commercial and military air transport. The FAA airworthiness certification follows over 1? years of formal testing and review of design, systems integration, manufacturing practices and doc-

umentation. There is important work to do to improve the quality of life for Ohio seniors, veterans, families, and businesses. Legislation is a paramount aspect of that work, but members of Congress who are concerned about their neighbors do more that give speeches on the Senate floor. One of my most important jobs as Senator is ful-

filling constituent services—from helping Ohioans cut red tape to assisting with government resources. If you or your family needs assistance, please contact my office at 1-888-896-OHIO. It’s an honor to serve you. Sherrod Brown is a United States Senator from Ohio.

Check damaged New Richmond Middle School team fared well against national competition trees for signs of beetle infestation

B R O A D S H E E T

New Richmond Middle School’s Science Olympiad team finished 21st out of 42 schools in a national invitational tournament held at Wright State University in January. “As Wright State will host the 2013 National Tournament, many top teams from around the country participated, making this one of the most competitive tournaments in the nation,” noted NRMS Science Olympiad advisor Josh Grischow. New Richmond competed in the 6th-9th grade division which was won by three-time defending Ohio and four-time defending national champion Solon Middle School with nine-time defending Georgia state champion J.C. Booth Middle School finishing second. “I was extremely proud of our team,” said Grischow. “This was the first time we have entered an invitational tournament with most of our students being new to Science Olympiad.” NRMS won awards in two scored events. Freshmen Marie Bezold and Jenny Roberts took 5th place in Microbe Mission and 8th graders Carter Light and Stile Sweet took 5th place in Keep the Heat. The New Richmond team excelled in four trial events with Daniel Weiskittel and Joey Hammill taking 1st place in Geologic Mapping, Rachel Coons and Katie Schlaak finishing 3rd in 3rd place in Elastic Launch Gliders, Anna Heiden, Caitlyn Grooms, and Kaeley Fagan finishing 5th in Helicopter Egg Drop and Alex Gardner and Kaylin Hoffman taking 6th place in Neuroscience.

were freshmen Alex Grooms, Eric Williams, and Audrey Feiler, 8th graders Tim Hammer, Adrianna Flood, Evan Grippa, Cydney Stiles, Alicia Bailey, Joe Maxwell, Jade Kunz, and Lindsey Williams, and 7th graders Josh Clancy, Teddy Mansfield, and Luke Smiddy. Coaches were Tina Grippa, Pam Hughes, Doug Smiddy, and Grischow.

Science Olympiad teams are allowed to bring back five 9th graders from the previous year’s team. “Our ten 8th graders and twelve 7th graders are new to this type of competition,” noted Grischow. “Most of our students are heavily involved with other commitments including sports, performing arts, and other after-school activities, so to find time to practice for Science

Olympiad, all while keeping up with schoolwork, has been a challenge to which our students have responded well.” Next up for the NRMS team is the Ohio Regional Tournament in March. “Our goal is to work hard and prepare well enough to qualify for the State Tournament for the second year in a row,” said Grischow.

The Ohio Department of Agriculture (ODA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) are encouraging homeowners in and near the Asian longhorned beetle (ALB) quarantine areas in Monroe and Tate townships in Clermont County to check downed limbs and trees for signs of ALB infestation and report them. “Trees and limbs that have already been weakened by damage from ALB are more susceptible to damage in strong storms,” said Matt Beal, chief of the ODA Division of Plant Health. “We are encouraging anyone who lives in and around Bethel and Amelia to look closely at trees and limbs brought down by the storm for signs of ALB infestation and to report findings to the program office.” Signs of infestation include severed trunks or branches with larval tunneling, perfectly round exit holes (about 3/8 to 1/2 inch in diameter) made by adult beetles when they emerge from trees; the pockmarks on tree trunks and branches where female beetles deposit eggs; frass (wood shavings and saw dust) produced by larvae feeding and tunneling; dead branches, and running sap produced by the tree at the egg laying sites, or in response tunneling. Starting March 3, in an effort to help with storm cleanup, the ALB marshaling yard, located at 2896 State Route 232 in Bethel

will have extended hours, open daily from 7:30 a.m. - 5 p.m. The site is open to contractors with a valid compliance agreement, as well as to all municipal and state cleanup crews. All woody debris that cannot be chipped on site must be taken to the ALB marshaling yard for proper disposal. If residents in the regulated area wish to hire, at their own expenses, a contractor to pick up storm debris please be sure to hire only ALB certified companies. Christine Markham, national director of the APHIS ALB eradication program said, “When hiring an independent company, it’s vital that they be certified to work in the regulated area, which is quarantined for ALB.” To find out if the company you are hiring is certified, or to report signs or symptoms of ALB damage, contact the ALB Eradication Program office at (513) 381-7180. Companies that are not under compliance must call the ALB Eradication Program office at (513) 381-7180 to be certified to handle ALB regulated material. For additional information on the quarantine areas in Clermont County, an area-wide map reflecting current program information, including the initial removal area and infested trees identified, is available online at: http://www.aphis.usda.gov /plant_health/plant_pest_in fo/asian_lhb/alb_maps.sht ml.

In addition to its Excellent rating from the Ohio Department of Education, New Richmond High School gets high marks from the Ohio Board of Regents for preparing its graduates for college math and English. According to the latest High School to College Transition Report by the Ohio Board of Regents covering 2009 graduates attending Ohio public colleges, New Richmond and Milford were tied

among Clermont County schools for the lowest percentage of students needing remedial math or English with 25 percent. Statewide 41 percent of the 52,782 Ohio high school 2009 graduates enrolled at Ohio public colleges as first-time students were placed in remedial math or English courses. "I have always felt that NRHS has been excellent at preparing our students for any future endeavor they might aspire to,” said Adam

Bird, superintendent of New Richmond schools. “This data released by ODE just lends credence to what I have always felt about the preparatory work of the teaching staff of NREVSND." Totals for other Clermont County schools for 2009 graduates needing developmental math or English in the report were: Batavia, 26%; Glen Este, 35%; Bethel-Tate and Williamsburg, 38%; Amelia, 41%; Clermont Northeastern,

Portman: We need action Continued from page 4 run around the Congress by allowing the EPA to create a similar cap-and-tax regime on American businesses. The uncertainty about this is delaying construction of the first new refinery in the country in a generation. Which brings us to the second problem with the Obama administration’s energy policies. These policies are killing jobs – jobs that Americans need in order to pay their gas bills. A pro-growth energy strategy won’t only result in more secure, reliable and affordable energy. It’ll help create the jobs we need, especially in the manufacturing industry, which creates the products used in the drilling and transportation of oil and natural gas. There are now 469,000 unemployed workers in Ohio. According to a recent study, development of Ohio’s nat-

ural gas and oil-rich Utica Shale alone could create and support more than 200,000 jobs in the state. The president seemed to be reversing course in his recent State of the Union address, calling for an “allof-the-above” strategy on energy, i.e., one that includes fossil fuels. But less than a week earlier, he rejected the Keystone XL pipeline, which would bring oil down from our closest ally, Canada, and more U.S. oil in the northern U.S. to refineries on the Gulf. Instead, that oil is now likely to go to China. Keystone XL was also set to be one of the largest private-sector infrastructure projects in the country, creating tens of thousands of jobs, many of them in manufacturing. As a major manufacturing state, Ohio would have benefited economically as we build many of the parts needed to create and service pipelines.

Because the pipeline makes sense, I’m co-sponsoring bipartisan legislation approving the pipeline under the authority granted to the Congress by the Commerce Clause of the Constitution. President Obama’s energy policies are both bad for the pocketbook and bad for our foreign policy. They ensure that we’ll be even more reliant on dangerous and volatile parts of the world for our future gas needs. I fear that things will only get worse this summer as American families start to hit the road for vacation. Americans deserve a different solution: a sensible national energy policy that stops our dangerous dependency on foreign oil and leads to more domestic production and prices we can afford at the gas pump.

Brown: A new vision of the future Continued from page 4 Sheriff’s budget is insufficient to open empty beds at the jail. Meanwhile, the cost of maintaining fire/EMS and police services continues to rise, while property taxes to help pay for those services are declining due to reduced property values. Officials are trying to come up with meaningful short term solutions, but how will we address this issue as our population continues to grow over the next 10 to 20 years? • The life blood of a vibrant community is job creation in the private sector. How can we work together to create a business jobfriendly environment to retain and expand existing businesses, and to attract new businesses to help our community grow over the next 10-20 years? Some issue-specific plan-

ning for the future is being done by government and various organizations, but it has been a long time since we have conducted a coordinated community wide initiative to create a Vision for the Future. In October 1988, Ed Parish, CEO of the Chamber of Commerce at the time, and Bill Over, a marketing and public relations executive, convened 63 community leaders to have a conversation about the future of Clermont County. The outcome of this meeting was the creation of a bipartisan planning team that engaged leaders and citizens from throughout the county to create a Vision for the Future titled “Clermont 2001.” That was nearly 25 years ago. I believe it is time to create a new Vision for the Future of Clermont County. Some may question whether in these uncertain, even volatile, economic

times it is wise to undertake such an endeavor. I contend it is these very economic conditions that should compel us to do so. Doing so won’t be easy. The future challenges we face today are even greater than they were in 1988. But if we fail to put forth our best effort to create and shape our future, the winds of change and others will dictate our future for us. I’m not talking about a county government vision, but I do believe our county commissioners are in a unique position to initiate this effort. The county commissioners, other community leaders, and key constituencies have an important role to play in the process, but in the end we need a Vision for the Future of Clermont County that belongs to the people.

Clermont County building inspectors have completed an initial assessment of homes, buildings, and other structures damaged, following the tornado and violent storms that moved through the county on Friday, March 2. Of the 287 buildings impacted in Franklin Township, Tate Township, Washington Township, and the Village of Moscow, 257 have been determined to be in need of repairs. Repairs require that permits be obtained and inspections performed before occupancy. “Our inspectors completed the initial assessments this evening,” said Director of the Clermont County Building Department Carl Lamping. The initial damage estimate has found the following: Franklin Township has 11 structures with major damage, 21 with minor damage, and 5 with slight damage; Tate Township has 32 structures with major damage, 71 with minor damage, and 23 with slight damage; Washington Township has 8 structures with heavy damage, 13 with minor damage, and 2 with slight damage; and the Village of Moscow has 47 structures with major damage, and 54 structures with minor damage. “We will continue to evaluate the damaged structures and inspect any completed repairs to the structures as they are requested by the public,” said Lamping. Citizens will find red tags on the doors of their homes and businesses if they have been determined to have suffered major damage, yellow tags are for minor damage, and green tags are for slight damage. Generally, repairs to buildings with red or yellow tags will require permits and inspections by the Clermont County Building Department. For more information, contact Clermont County Permit Central at (513) 732-7213 or visit the website at www.Permit.ClermontCountyOhio.gov.

During the Friday evening opening session, dinner tables were decorated with birthday cards and birthday hats to help students celebrate the 75th anniversary of FEA inspiring future educators. The keynote speaker was America Ferrera, star of ABC’s “Ugly Betty” and feature films including “The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.” Ms. Ferrara, a Save the Children ambassador who helped raise funds for a new elementary school in Mali, spoke about the importance of arts education and

United Way makes grants available United Way of Greater Cincinnati has made a first grant of $100,000 available for relief and recovery efforts related to last Friday’s destructive tornadoes. “The events of the weekend and the devastating effects of the tornadoes have been humbling,” said United Way president Rob Reifsnyder. “In just a few moments thousands of lives have been changed forever. Let me speak for everyone at United Way and say that our thoughts and prayers go out to every family and business touched by this random force of nature.” Reifsnyder said, “Specific grants from the funds will be made as soon as short- and long-term relief and recovery needs are identified. United Way will work with others to bring additional resources to the table as needs related to rebuilding are assessed.” He said, “United Way 211 has been handling calls since Friday afternoon and connecting people and agencies with ways to get help and to volunteer. This 24-hour service is available to anyone dialing 2-1-1.” The region’s first responder, the American Red Cross, has been on the ground helping people with food, shelter and counseling since the tornadoes hit. The American Red Cross and United Way are fundraising partners in the annual United Way campaign.

COUNTRY TABLE BY MARCY WILSON Romaine lettuce is always a good bet for a tossed green salad. It’s crisp texture holds up under assertive dressings. Here’s an Italian type salad with a simple lemon dressing.

Italian Chopped Salad with Lemon Dressing Dressing: 1 teaspoon minced garlic or to taste 3 tablespoons lemon juice or to taste 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 1/2 cup olive oil Salt and pepper to taste Salad: Layer: Romaine lettuce, chopped Diced cucumbers Diced tomatoes Diced red onion Feta cheese, crumbled Combine garlic, lemon juice, Dijon and Worcestershire. Slowly whisk in olive oil. Mixture will be thick. Thin with a little water if you want. Drizzle on top of salad.

Country Kitchen Wisdom • Instead of layering salad, toss with dressing. • Toss cucumbers, tomatoes and red onion with a small amount of dressing before tossing with Romaine. This assures that all vegetables will be coated with dressing. • This is delicious as a luncheon or supper salad topped with deli-roasted chicken, or beef.

Tornado devastates community

Debris from the F3 tornado that went through the village of Moscow came to rest in the streets after the storm ended.

A house is left in ruins after a tornado ripped through Moscow March 2, killing one resident and damaging more than two dozen homes in the village.

Paint marks the front of what used to be a bar in Moscow signaling that search and rescue workers checked the building after the tornado. The building was one of many that was damaged during the storm.

Gresham is state champ, again Sun staff

B R O A D S H E E T E V E N

Defending a state championship is never easy, but Goshen’s Chaz Gresham did just that after taking arguably the toughest route to the finals where he defeated St. Paris Graham’s Huston Evans for the second consecutive season. “He didn’t really have the easiest route to the finals,” Goshen coach Dallas Rise said. “The guys that he beat in the quarter- and semifinals ended up coming in third and fourth, so he was actually on the tougher side of the bracket.” Even with that being said, Gresham, who won the Division II state tournament last year at 189 lbs. against Evans, took care of his business rather impressively to get to the finals. Gresham defeated Carrollton’s Austin Miller by major decision 16-6 in the first round and pinned Clyde’s Brad Smith in 0:50 in the second round. Smith went on to place third. In his semifinal match, Gresham technical felled Milan Edison’s Jordan Cole 22-7. Cole would go on to place fourth. Meeting with Evans in the finals, Gresham got behind 2-0 early on due to a controversial call.

Goshen senior Chaz Gresham repeated as state champion. Last year he won the 189 weight class, this year, 182.

“It was 0-0 after the first period,” Rise explained. “And (Gresham) put (Evans) on his back using a move called a crotch lift in the second period. (Gresham) has done that move probably 100 times since he’s been in high school and I don’t think it’s even been called an illegal slam, but the referee called it an illegal slam.

“At that point, he would have gotten three back points off of that, so where it would have been at least 3-1 or 3-0 at the end of the second, we ended up getting called for the illegal slam, which gives (Evans) his penalty point and he was able to escape, so we were down 2-0 going into the third period.” Gresham admitted to get-

ting a little disappointed by the call, he was able to let the call roll off of his back and refocus to get back into the match in the final period. “Chaz did a great job of keeping his composure and continued to work hard,” Rise said. “He got an escape point to cut the lead to one and he was obviously the more aggressive wrestler,

which caused a stalling call to tie the match at two. Ultimately in overtime, (Evans) was stalling so much that the referee ended the match. “It’s kind of unfortunate, but obviously I’m not going to complain because we were on the victorious side.” Gresham has committed to wrestle next fall at Ohio University in Athens, Ohio.

“He’s increased the numbers of wrestlers and makes it more enjoyable for the other kids,” Rise said. “We want to build on what he did, but not wrestlers like him don’t come around very often.” Along with Gresham, New Richmond sent four wrestlers to the state tournament with two, Brody Hooks (113 lbs.) and JR Forsee (285 lbs.), finishing in fifth and seventh place, respectively. “(Hooks) wrestled really well this weekend,” New Richmond coach Deron Shinkle said. “He wasn’t out-classed by anyone, but just came up short in the consolation semifinal. “JR did a nice job, too. He was injured at the district tournament, so he didn’t get quite the draw we were hoping, but he wrestled well.” New Richmond’s other qualifiers, Austin Skaggs (120 lbs.) and Cody Gabelman (126 lbs.) did not place. The other local qualifiers who didn’t place were, in D-I, Glen Este’s Drew Kearns (132 lbs.); in D-II Batavia’s Gabe Archer (182 lbs.); and in D-III Williamsburg’s Jordan Smith (285 lbs.), All three lost their first two matches of the tournament.

Clermont County had six girls from five schools named to the Ohio High School Athletic Association’s Southwest All-District team. In Division I, Amelia’s Kymmy Simon and Milford’s Morgan Wolcott were named to the First Team All-District. Simon, a senior, averaged 16.9 points per game, 4.4 rebounds and 3 steals. “Kymmy is obviously been the offensive leader for our team for the last two years,” Amelia head coach Tara Kaiser said. “She’s been a role model both in life and on the basketball court. She works hard in practice and in the games. She’s relentless. “Whether she scores 10 points or 25 points, you know you’re going to get everything from Kymmy, that’s just the kind of kid she is.” For Wolcott, who will be attending the Ohio State University in the fall to play soccer, she averaged 16.6 points per game, 9.6 rebounds and 4.1 steals as a Lady Eagle. Milford coach Kristi McKenney called Wolcott a “once in a lifetime player.” “She’s meant a lot to Milford as a whole,” McKen-

ney said. “She’s probably one of the best athletes to come out of the school in a while. Her love of the game, whether it be basketball or soccer or track, she’s one of the most competitive girls I’ve ever met. “She just has a presence on the court that makes everyone around her better. The younger girls really look up to her. She’s become a vocal leader this year and it’s going to be hard to replace her next year.” In Division II, Clermont County had two players named to the First Team and two more named to the Second Team All-District. Heading up the first team are a pair of underclassmen: Batavia’s freshman guard Samantha McElfresh and New Richmond’s sophomore center Josie Buckingham. McElfresh averaged 12.6 points per game, 5.1 rebounds and 1.6 steals in her injury-shortened first season. “Samantha led our team in scoring, but was unable to play in eight games this season (due to strengthening issues with an ACL tear last year),” Batavia coach Beth Wolfer said. “When she’s on the floor, our team plays so much better. She

Withrow’s two was greater than Milford’s one as the Tigers defeated the Eagles 69-64 in a Division I sectional semifinal game at Fairfield High School on Tuesday, Feb 29. “They have two players that we don’t have,” Milford coach Joe Cambron said. “With (Devin) Williams and (Timothy) Coleman, they’re just a really good team.” In one of the most entertaining games of the season, Milford and Withrow began exchanging blows right from the tip. Withrow’s high-pressure defense caused the Milford guards to be wary of their lazy passes from the get-go and in turn, the Eagles’ twothree zone tried to force the Tigers to beat them from the outside. “Williams is their best player, he’s a man,” Cambron said of the junior who scored 23 points and brought down 10 rebounds. “Our zone was designed to make them shoot from the perimeter and keep them from getting the ball inside to him. “Early on that worked and we kept mixing back and forth (between two-

three,three-two and man defenses) and that caused some problems.” On the offensive end, the Eagles relied heavily on 6foot-6 senior Rob Overbeck to carry the brunt of the load, taking on the 6-foot-7 Williams and 6-foot-10 Rozelle Nix. “He’s first-team all conference. He stepped up as he always has,” Cambron said of his senior leader. “We wanted to get (Overbeck) the ball and get (Withrow) in foul trouble. He took it at them and was able to finish. “In the first half, he carried us by scoring and in the second half they tried to speed the game up so we couldn’t get it inside as much.” Overbeck scored 23 points and grabbed seven rebounds on the night. In their first-round game with Western Brown, Milford had a definitive size advantage over the Broncos, which allowed Overbeck and his front-court mates the option to draw attention to themselves on the post in order to kick the ball out to shooters on the perimeter. They had no such advantage in their sectional semifinal matchup, as Withrow’s bigs were able to man up

with the tall Eagles’ front line. Still, as the Tigers continued to let Coleman create and dish the ball off to his teammates, Milford was able to do more than just hang around, taking a 10point lead a few minutes into the second quarter at

32-22. However, just as defense had spurred the Eagles to their double-digit advantage, Withrow cranked up their defense to go on a 143 run to take a lead into the locker room, 36-35. See Eagles, Page B14

Clermont Northeastern and New Richmond met for the third time this season on Wednesday, Feb. 29 in an all-Southern Buckeye Conference sectional semifinal that saw the Rockets overcome an early 7-2 deficit to defeat the Lions 42-38. The Rockets gained some quality information by scouting the Lions during New Richmond’s 48-42 first-round victory over Norwood. “They struggled with the two-three zone that Norwood ran early,” CNE coach Jason Iles said. “We drew up the game plan to play a zone and get a hand in the shooters’ face and make them put it on the floor. It worked out pretty

well because we held them to 38 points, which is well below their season average of 52.” The Rockets’ zone did a lot to affect the way New Richmond wanted to play. After burning an early timeout down 7-2, Iles and the Rockets made an effort to force the Lions to use the dribble to get into the zone and shoot mid-range jump shots, something New Richmond struggled with. “They really slowed the game down on us a lot,” New Richmond coach Brian McMonigle said. “They played a zone most of the game and did a good job swarming my guys on the post. They forced quite a bit of turnovers because we were trying to dribble See CNE, Page B13

The UC Clermont Lady Cougars concluded a successful regular season with a record of 26-12, a Ohio Collegiate Athletic Conference title and were the No. 5-ranked team in the United States Collegiate Athletic Association. All that success translated to a fifth-straight appearance in the USCAA National Championship Tournament on the campus of Penn State Fayette in Uniontown, Penn. being held March 6-10. The Lady Cougars have six players from Clermont County, led by sisters Cayla Marisa Stutz, FelicityFranklin graduates. “Marisa was the Player of the Year in the conference this year and Cayla was last year,” head coach Mike Matthews said. “Cayla is out with a torn ACL. She was our leader scorer from last year and preseason AllAmerican. “Marisa got voted AllAmerican this year, so she stepped out of the shadow of her sister and improved

The triple-double was one assist away from getting a quadruple-double.” Besides the Stutzs, Dawn Rapp (Clermont Northeastern), Alex Junker (Milford), Tess Jenike (Bethel) and Brooke Catauro (Goshen) are Clermont County products.

The Lady Cougars are a six seed in the USCAA Tournament and will face off with Spalding University, the 11 seed, in the first round on Wednesday, March 7 at 9:30 p.m. The USCAA Tournament features 16 teams from around the country vying for the title of national champion.

through the zone and not moving the ball enough.” The Rockets took a 14-11 lead after the first quarter and built it to 10 points by the half thanks to quality games by three individuals. “(Alex) Gilkerson had a pretty good game,” Iles said. “Senior Lucas Wolfe did an exceptional job in his role. But probably the biggest factor in the past few games has been junior Patrick Cornett. He ended up shooting 16 free throws. He really stepped it up.” All three players ended the game in double figures, led by Gilkerson’s 13 points. Cornett added 12 points and Wolfe had 10. New Richmond’s fourguard offense struggled in the first half knocking down open looks, but was able to get some to fall in the second half as the Lions mounted their comeback. Austen Craig and Jake Gundler led the way for the Lions with 11 points apiece. “We had open looks, but weren’t able to knock them down,” McMonigle said. “We started to hit some late in the game, but by then it was too little, too late.” The Rockets were outscored 9-5 in the third quarter, but still held a sixpoint advantage going into the final quarter. With the defensive game plan Clermont had em-

Regan Hauke was an Honorable Mention. Marisa Stutz and Coach Matthews took home the awards for Player and Coach of the Year. “I think it’s really a coaching staff award,” Matthews said of his honor. “It’s just me and (assistant coach Rick Hosea), so we have to work really hard.

You would have been hard-pressed to find someone at the beginning of the winter that would have believed that the Clermont Northeastern boys’ basketball team would be the last Clermont County team alive in the sectional tournament, but that’s exactly what the Rockets did. “We were kind of picked to be in the doghouse of the league,” CNE coach Jason Iles said. “We graduated eight seniors and had a team with no varsity experience and we paid for that in the first four games going 0-4. “It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish. We’ve stressed that all year. My guys have believed all year, they’re not quitters. We were the last SBC team standing and competing for a sectional championship. Now, that’s a standard we have to meet each and every year.” The Rockets competed in that sectional championship against the defending Division III state champions, Taft. The Senators finished the regular season 15-4 with all four losses coming at the City of Palms Basketball Classic in Fort Meyers, Fla. Taft ended Batavia’s season on Wednesday, Feb. 29 before meeting CNE on Saturday, March 3. The Senators took care of the Bulldogs with a 110-41 victory. Taft had five players score in double figures, led by senior Orlando Berry’s 26 points. “We really just couldn’t

handle their athleticism, especially on the defensive side and in the half court,” Batavia coach Mike Hatfield said. “We didn’t do a horrible job with their fullcourt pressure, but in the half court they pushed us way out. They were so quick.” Clermont Northeastern was next up for Taft. The Rockets were short-handed

as all five seniors had left to go to New York City, leaving Iles to play with seven guys, two of which are regular starters. The Rockets fell into some of the same pitfalls as Batavia did. The Taft size and athleticism put CNE out of the game pretty quickly en route to a 96-34 win. “We were missing some

guys. Only two starters were there, Derick Schmidt and Patrick Cornett,” Iles said. “But, take nothing away from Taft, they’re a good team and should be around at the end of the tournament.” The Rockets ended the season 10-12 overall and 55 in the Southern Buckeye Conference American Division. Iles believes that in his first year as head coach, the Rockets have succeeded given the changes he and his staff have brought in. “From top to bottom, with a new coach and a new system, there were a lot of things I implemented throughout the year that we will continue to build on,” the coach said. “The kids did extremely well all year. The JV team had a great season, finished 12-8, so some of them should fill some varsity roles. We have to continue to get after it over the summer. The program is headed in the right direction. “It’s over, but it’s just beginning. The better basketball players are made in the off season. All of those kids that played in the sectional championship game are back for us next year.” Batavia, like CNE, finished their season strong after a slow start. “We went 8-4 after that 17 start, so I’m really proud of the kids for that,” Hatfield said. “JV had a great hear and we have a sophomore and three or four juniors coming back so I’m looking forward to next season.”

she’s on the floor, our team plays so much better. She hustles and sees the floor very well. We depend on her for scoring and overall, we play a lot better with her.” As for Buckingham, the 6-foot-5 sophomore averaged 15.9 points per game, 10.3 rebounds and 5.5 blocks. New Richmond coach Brad Hatfield called her the most dominant player in the Southern Buckeye Conference. “She can take over both ends of the floor,” he said. “You know what you’re

going to get from her, more than 10 rebounds, more than 10 points. She’s a real weapon to have whenever she’s on the floor, you know your team has a chance to win.” New Richmond senior Sarah Shoemaker and Goshen senior Kelsi Steele were named to the Second Team All-District. Shoemaker averaged 8.4 points per game, 5.7 rebounds and 2.5 steals. “Sarah Shoemaker meant as much as anybody in turning our program around,” Hatfield said. “She ended her career starting 67 games in a row. She was a three-

year starter and two-time league all star. She was a tremendous perimeter defender and led by example. She’s everything you want in a student-athlete.” Steele rounded out the award winners. She averaged 9.8 points per game, 2.2 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 2.8 steals. “Our seniors were unbelievable,” Goshen coach Dave Mason said. “What she means to the team and the seniors as a whole, what they mean to the school, they are just a great group. The younger class gets a chance to see what leadership is.”

“We decided that we had to man up a bit and try to keep them in front (of us),” Cambron explained. “And we got some deflections and stops with that.” Milford looked like the more disciplined team early in the second half, coming out of the break running their offensive sets patiently and building a five-point lead. The turning point of the quarter came when Milford’s Josiah Greve was called for an intentional foul after chasing down Coleman. The Eagles, whose lead was at 48-47 before the foul, found themselves down 51-48 following Coleman’s two free throws and ensuing possession. Withrow finished the quarter well, opening up a 55-48 lead through three quarters and forcing the issue on the Eagles to either close the gap or watch the game get away from them. Junior guard Brennan Farrell answered that call in the fourth quarter, taking over the game scoring 14 of his 19 points in the final period to give the Eagles a 6160 lead with 1:28 remaining. Withrow didn’t panic, much to the chagrin of some of their fans, as the Tigers ran an offensive set that took them to under a minute remaining. Withrow senior Erron Nichols made two free

throws after being fouled by Garrett Mayleben and then extended the Withrow lead on their next possession with a put-back layup to give the Tigers a 64-61 lead with 45 seconds remaining. The Eagles were unable to close the gap and were forced to foul after missed shot attempts. The Tigers advanced the sectional final with the 69-64 win. After starting the year 55, Milford didn’t get down on themselves or give up, which Cambron said is a tribute to his guys and his coaching staff. “A lot of teams would have packed it in at 5-5 and we didn’t,” Cambron said. “But we kept tinkering and working and gained confidence. That’s a great sign of character and perseverance and what I hope people will think about Milford basketball.” Milford will lose only two seniors next season in Overbeck and Robby Conley, but as Cambron pointed out, next year’s team will have to replace a doubledouble every night. “Having so many guys coming back, I thought it was critical that we put ourselves in the position to win a tournament game and finish the season strong,” he said. “Those guys are hungry now. They got a taste of winning a tournament game and I think they saw what they have to do from the beginning of the season for us to be in a position to win our conference.”

Milford High School is hosting its second-annual “Flight Night” at Oasis Golf and Conference Center in Loveland on Thursday, March 15 at 6 p.m. The Cincinnati Bengals’All-Pro quarterback Ken Anderson and the voice of the Bengals, Dave Lapham will be the featured speakers. “It’s great to have both of those guys, especially with their history in Cincinnati, what they have done for the city and the Bengals,” Milford athletic director Mark Trout said. “We’re excited to hear what Kenny Anderson has to say about his playing days. Obviously, Dave Lapham is still in town doing the commentary, so it’ll be great to have those guys and hear some stories they have to tell. To have those guys, it should be a really special event.” The event runs $45 for a general admission ticket that includes dinner, dessert and a cash bar, while a VIP ticket can be purchased for $85. With the VIP admission, along with the dinner and dessert, you receive appetizers and an autograph and photo session with the honored guests. All of the event’s proceeds will benefit the Milford Athletic Boosters Club. The goal of the boosters is

to make this evening one of the largest fund-raising events each year. All attendees must be 21years of age or older. “It’s an event that some people would refer to as a ‘stag’ event,” Trout said. “However, ours is different. Ours is not just for guys only, it is for everybody. It’s a good time. It’s dinner, talking sports and hearing some good speakers.” Last year at the inaugural “Flight Night,” Milford had former Ohio State University head football coach John Cooper and former Bengals All-Pro David Fulcher speak. “We have a lot of business sponsors who come in and buy tables and join us,” Trout said. “City Council and the Board of Education support it. They came out last year and had tables. It’s really a community event, which is great.” Along with dinner and speeches, there will also be a silent auction Donations should be sent to Milford Athletic Department, C/O Flight Night 2012, Milford High School, 1 Eagles Way, Milford, Ohio 45150.
