Jay Bruce, right fielder for the Cincinnati Reds, speaks about Brian Wilson Field during a press conference May 2. Bruce helped fund the field, which will be the home of University of Cincinnati Clermont College Cougars in 2013 and it is named in honor of Brian Wilson, a Reds player, coach and scout who died in 2006.

Reds to renovate field for Clermont College baseball team Field one of several Reds projects set for the county Sun staff

The Batavia Township Community Center will soon be the site of the Reds Rookie Success League and Brian Wilson Field, a field that will be renovated for the University of Cincinnati Clermont College Cougars baseball team. Officials from the Cincinnati Reds and the Reds Community Fund made the announcements during a press conference May 2 at the Batavia Township Community Center. Bob Castellini, president and CEO of the Reds, Charley Frank, executive director of the Reds Community Fund and several Reds players including Jay Bruce, who help fund the new field spoke at the event. “I am here as a fulfillment to a commitment,” Castellini said at the press conference. “And that was to greatly expand the work

the Reds Community Fund does in Clermont County.” Castellini explained that several months ago he spoke at an event in Clermont County, and he became aware that the Reds Community Fund could do more in the area. He said one of the first people involved with his commitment was Dean Gregory Sojka of University of Cincinnati Clermont College, who saw a need for a baseball field for the Clermont Cougars baseball team. The collegiate team has been practicing and playing games in Blue Ash Ohio because they do not have access to regulation baseball fields close to the college’s campus. Castellini said the field renovations at the Batavia Township Community Center will transform the existing field, which was designed for recreational and little league games, into a collegiate competition

true home field.” The Clermont Cougars baseball team attended the event and were able to thank those involved in making the project happen. “It’s going to be amazing not having to drive down 275 to get to our games,” Jesse Inskeep, a pitcher on the team, said. “It’s going to feel more like a college atmosphere.” Mike Sechrist, an outfielder, said he looks forward to playing on the field and taking care of it. “We greatly appreciate it,” Sechrist said. “We’re excited to have a place to practice and a place to call home.” Batavia Township Trustees also worked with officials from the Reds Community Fund to bring the Reds Rookie Success League to the county. “We’re all really excited about it,” Batavia Township Trustee Jim Sauls said about the Reds involvement in the county. “We are getting a lot of use out of the fields now. I think it is really good for the township.” Reds, Page A3

EPA continuing to work with Milford contaminated aquifer Representatives interviewed residents about their concerns BY KRISTIN BEDNARSKI Sun staff

Representatives with the Environmental Protection Agency were in Milford April 30-May 1 conducting interviews with Milford residents regarding their concerns with the Milford Contaminated Aquifer site. “The interviews will give us a feel for the concerns of the community,” Patricia Krause, community involvement coordinator for the site, said. Krause said the interviews will help EPA officials develop a community involvement plan that will provide information to the public. “The Milford Contaminated Aquifer has been around for quite a while,” Krause said. “It is slated for investigation and eventual clean up.” According to the EPA,

the site, located in the area of Main Street and Lila Avenue in Milford, is a ground water plume that was found to be contaminated with chlorinated solvents. Volatile organic compounds were first detected in public wells near the site in 1986, and after several investigations performed by the Ohio EPA did not locate the source of the contamination, the site was referred to the EPA. In March of 2011, the site was added to the National Priorities List as a priority clean-up site in the nation. Jena Sleboda, remedial project manager for the site, said the contaminants were discovered in the ground water at the site. “Right now there is no risk to anyone,” Sleboda said about the contamina-

Bethel Business Association formed Members meet the first Monday of each month BY KRISTIN BEDNARSKI Sun staff

Business owners in the village of Bethel gathered together May 7 at the Grant Memorial Building to participate in the first official meeting of the Bethel Business Association. The recently-formed organization was created to help unify and promote the business community in the village and is open to any business owner or community member who wishes to be involved. “There are some strong business advocates in the village,” Judi Adams, president and organizer of the BBA, said before the meeting. “We needed to form a business entity in town.” Adams said organizers have had several meetings to get everything ready, and now that they have their certificate of corporation and are working toward becoming a non-profit organization, they plan to hold regular monthly meetings on the first Monday of each

month. “We want to promote local businesses in the town,” Adams said. “And we want to get people in here.” Adams said many people have suggested having a business-specific entity in the village that could improve the village, plan events and work to bring more business to the area. “Finally, I said ‘If we’re going to do it, let’s do some research,’” Adams said. She said she worked with the Clermont County Chamber of Commerce as well as a legal representative to help develop ideas and complete the requirements for the organization. From there, interested business owners began working together to get the organization going and recruit new members. Mayor Alan Ausman inducted the officers of the BBA at their first official meeting May 7, and the charter members of the organization were named. “I think we all have to

work in unison, and I think you all are very important to that,” Ausman said before inducting the members. “You make this community strong.” Ausman said it is important for the village government, businesses in the community and the community citizens to work together in the village. He

said developing an organization for the businesses will be beneficial. “We have a rich history of business in this town and a bright future,” Ausman said. Ausman inducted Adams as president, Gloria Canter as vice president, Tim Smith as treasurer and Mike Roberson as secretary at the

meeting. Other members who attended the meeting included Susan Conley, John Essen, Lou Ann Oberschlake, Bill Skvarla, Nancy Sterman and Rus Whitley, all business owners in the village. “This is one of the best Bethel, Page A3

field complete with dugouts, a grass infield and more. Castellini commended Jay Bruce for making it possible for the field to be renovated in the county. “He committed a portion of his contract to the community fund,” Castellini said about Bruce. Bruce spoke at the event and explained that he wanted the field to be named after Brian Wilson, who recruited Bruce and was his first impression of the Cincinnati team. Wilson, who passed away in 2006, spent 13 years with the Reds as a player, coach and scout. “It’s the least I could to to dedicate this field to him,” Bruce said. Township Batavia Trustees have been working with officials from the Reds as well as Sojka for months to make the community center the site of a field for the college team. The field is scheduled to be complete and ready for games by the 2013 season. “Thousands of kids will benefit from your work,” Sojka said. “They’ll have a

Batavia Local School District Board of Education members are beginning to plan how they will trim spending next year after getting a better idea of what the budget may be. “At the end of last school year we needed to cut $1.5 million, and we did,” Michael Ashmore, treasurer for the district, said. Ashmore said even with the reductions, the district will probably not be able to balance the budget this year because they received less than what they projected in property taxes. “We came within

$200,000 of balancing the budget,” Ashmore said. “Property taxes came in about $180,000 below what we had projected.” Ashmore said the news came as a bit of surprise to district officials because they had budgeted conservatively for the property taxes. “The reason that it is subject to fluctuation is there are delinquencies, new construction and every three years the county auditor is required to update property values.” Ashmore said property values, which are decreasing, were collected this year. “It’s a combination of all of that,” Ashmore said about what led to the reduction in property tax revenue.

The Clermont Sun - Thursday, May 10, 2012 - Page A3

The 2012 SkillsUSA Ohio State Championships gathered nearly three-thousand members and advisors from career training programs throughout Ohio, including 21 members of the Grant Career Center SkillsUSA Chapter. The 60th annual Skills Championship was held at the Ohio State Fairground Complex in Columbus, April 27 and 28. The Ohio SkillsUSA Championships consist of 86 career and leadership competitions. Participants are challenged to complete a project in their careertraining area within a specified time frame while being rated by a panel of judges from business, industry, and education. Gold medal winners will compete in the SkillsUSA Championships in Kansas City, Missouri, June 22-28, 2012, for National Honors. Allied Health Science senior Christopher Taylor, (Bethel Tate) placed first in Health Occupations Professional Portfolio and earned a spot at the National

Championship. His project consisted of a professional portfolio featuring his competencies in health care skills both at school and in the workplace. Christopher also prepared a PowerPoint presentation and speech to demonstrate his competencies. Senior Allied Health Science student Mariah Conger (Felicity-Franklin) earned a gold medal in the Basic Health Care Skills competition. This competition challenged the student’s basic levels of health knowledge and the skills of fundamental health care. Mariah’s skills were evaluated through hands-on demonstrations, a written exam, an interview and a tabletop presentation of her skills. The Robotics and Automation Technology team of Engineering Design students Cyra Jones and Travis Bee (Bethel-Tate) also brought back a gold medal and will compete at the national level. In their competition, Cyra and Travis demonstrated the operation

of a robotic workcell to resolve a simulated production process problem and created a flow chart and sequence of operation. The Automated Manufacturing Technology team consisting of Engineering Design students Jake Foster (Felicity-Franklin), Tyler Miller and Taylor Dryden (Bethel-Tate), placed third in this year’s competition. Their competition consisted of designing a mechanical part, writing code in a Computer Aided Manufacturing program, and milling the part in the ProLight mill. Other students competing in events at the state level were: Ryan Logan, Automotive Refinishing, Auto Collision, (New Richmond); Frank Frasher, Collison Repair, Auto Collison, (Bethel-Tate); Vincinz Weesner, Construction, Carpentry, (Bethel-Tate); Nicole Payton, Medical Math, Allied Health Science, (New Richmond); Garrek Canter, Automotive Technology, Automotive Service Technology,

Ashmore said looking ahead to next year, board members will have to again make cuts or find additional revenue to be able to balance the budget and avoid using even more of the reserve cash balance. “For many years we’ve tapped into that to where it is dangerously low,” Ashmore said. “At some point it is not going to be there to tap in to.” Ashmore said the board is currently looking at where they can not only cut costs for next year, but also be able to build back the reserve.

He said the district will likely start seeing utility savings next year from the improvement projects they completed this year, and board members are working on cutting costs in other areas as well. “We think we can do some of those savings without touching personnel at this point,” Ashmore said. Ashmore said board members are working on the specifics of a cost-cutting plan for next year and will be discussing the plan in the near future.

tion. “Usually you would see the risk if people had private wells they were pulling the water from. Since it is being treated, no one is being affected right now.” Sleboda said by law the EPA is required to clean up drinking water aquifers, which is why they are moving forward with their investigation and clean up. “The Ohio EPA has done a lot of ground waters sam-

pling,” Sleboda said. “We’ll probably do some sampling to try to pin down that source.” Sleboda said they should be able to begin sampling during the next fiscal year when funding is available. “I think people are glad we’re looking into it because they want the water treatment to be done,” Sleboda said about speaking with residents during the interviews. Krause said the interviews will help officials understand concerns of

residents and determine what information they can provide to residents moving forward. She said they will be working to develop a community involvement plan that will include background information about the site as well as additional resources.

things that has happened,” Susan Conley said about the business organization. “We need this.” Rus Whitley also discussed the need for the organization and said he has been interested in participating in a business-specific organization for years. “I was really impressed to see this get underway,” Whitley said. During the meeting,

members discussed goals for the organization including beautifying Plane Street, working together to promote local businesses and working with council members to determine what can be done to improve the village. They planned to put mulch around several trees in the village in preparation for the upcoming Bethel Art and Music Festival and worked on other plans to improve flower displays in

the village. Members also discussed reaching out to business owners in the community who may be interested in being a part of the BBA. For more information about BBA contact Judi Adams at (513) 734-4445 or jadams@bankwithcsb.com. For a membership application contact Mike Roberson at (513) 4274273.

Ashmore said they are still hopeful they will may receive another receipt for incoming property tax revenue, but it is unlikely at this point. “This year we didn’t exactly balance the budget, but we budgeted enough of a cash carry-over that we can get through,” Ashmore said. He said the cash balance in the reserve fund has been depleted, which is why the district has a goal to balance the budget each year.

Previously held in Warren County, Reds officials decided to move the league to an area it has not been held. “Clermont County has been a phenomenal partner,” Charley Frank, executive director of the Reds Community Fund, said. “We are excited to move the program from Warren to Clermont County.” The Reds Rookie Success League is a multi-week baseball camp that incorporates character-based curriculum with fundamental baseball instruction. The league is intended for boys and girls who would not otherwise have an opportunity to participate in an instructional baseball camp. Participants will be bussed in from several locations and will have an opportunity to work with Reds players, coaches and other volunteers. “That’s our inspiration,” Frank said. “To include those kids who need the program.” The Reds Rookie Success League will be held from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Mondays and Tuesdays from June 11 to July 3 at the Batavia Township Community Center. Frank said they will be recruiting participants from across Clermont County and will also need volunteers to help each day.

PAUL PFEIFER OHIO SUPREME COURT JUSTICE year. We therefore concluded that the policy language was not ambiguous. The next issue was whether Nationwide had waived its right to enforce the one-year waiver clause. In a case from 1981, our court stated that when an insurance company - by its actions - recognizes liability, and that recognition causes the policyholder to delay filing a lawsuit, the company has waived its right to enforce a limitation clause. That case established a two-part test to determine whether an insurance company has waived a contractual limitation-of-action clause. First, the company must have either recognized liability or held out a reasonable hope of adjustment, and second, by doing so, induced the policyholder to delay filing a lawsuit until after the period of limitation expired. In this case, we concluded that Nationwide did not recognize liability for the disputed portion of the damage or hold out hope of an adjustment to include compensation for that portion of the damage. Nationwide clearly stated that it was not liable beyond the amount of the check that it twice sent to Dennis. In a letter dated September 6, 2006, Nationwide stated, “You will receive... a partial denial letter indicating the roof damage is not part of the covered loss, nor is any damage to personal property, nor... for any mold related issues. All of these issues are discussed in the partial denial letter.” In the partial denial letter - bearing the same date Nationwide wrote, “The purpose of this letter is to advise you that Nationwide Mutual Fire Insurance Company has decided, based upon the investigation into the circumstances surrounding a claim made by you, that there is no coverage for certain aspects of your storm related claim under the Nationwide Homeowner policy. “In particular, there is not coverage available for your roof or any damage to contents of your home or any resultant mold formed as a result of your loss. There is coverage available for the resultant interior damage to your home. I will contact you to make final arrangements and payment regarding the interior damage.” The letter contained the following caption in capital letters: PARTIAL DENIAL OF COVERAGE. Enclosed with the letter was the check on which Dennis wrote “void” and returned to Nationwide. The letter finished by pointing out that “any suit you wish to file against Nationwide as a result of this claim must be done so Pfeifer, Page A7

On July 28, 2006, a storm caused a tree to fall and damage a house owned by a man named Dennis J. Dominish. In the wake of the storm, Dennis submitted a claim to his insurance company - Nationwide Insurance Company. Nationwide investigated the scene, assessed the damage, and twice issued a check to Dennis in the amount of $6,741.96. Both times that Dennis received a check, he wrote the word “void” on it and returned it to Nationwide, deeming the amount insufficient to cover the damage to his home. Two years later, on July 25, 2008, Dennis filed suit against Nationwide . In response, the insurance company argued that the lawsuit was barred by a clause in the insurance contract that states: “Suits Against Us. No action can be brought against us unless there has been full compliance with the policy provisions. Any action must be started within one year after the date of loss or damage.” The trial court agreed with Nationwide and granted the company’s motion for summary judgment - meaning that the judge decided the case without a trial. Dennis appealed, and the court of appeals reversed the trial court’s ruling. The court of appeals concluded that the policy language was ambiguous, and that in any event, Nationwide, by its actions, had waived its right to enforce the one-year limitation clause. After that ruling, Dennis’s case came before us the Supreme Court of Ohio - for a final review. Unfortunately, Dennis passed away in December 2010, but his appeal proceeded nonetheless. The first issue was whether the policy language was ambiguous. Our court has long adhered to the principle that ambiguous language in an insurance contract is construed against the insurance company. In isolation, any word or phrase in the policy language that Dennis contested may be ambiguous. But when considered as a whole, the provision is unambiguous. The fact that the word “start” is not commonly used to indicate the commencement of a lawsuit does not mean that it refers to something else when it’s used in a provision entitled “Suit Against Us.” Similarly, though the word “action” can refer to many things, there’s no reason to think it refers to anything other than a lawsuit when used as part of a twosentence provision that is entitled “Suit Against Us.” The fact that the two sentences could have been written more clearly - and they could have - doesn’t mean that they’re ambiguous. The policy states in language clear enough to be plainly understood that any lawsuit by a policyholder against Nationwide must be commenced within one

The truth behind George Brown’s fine columns BY M.E. STEELE-PIERCE During George Brown’s absence this past weekend, taking care of some family business in Virginia, he has given me permission to be his guest columnist. I was honored to have been asked because George has such an esteemed following. Being the cousin of George’s beautiful wife, Yvonne Sue Brown, I’ve had the privilege and good fortune of knowing George since serving as bridesmaid in their wedding 46 years ago. Having watched George’s career of leadership, you can understand that I was pleased when he arrived in Clermont County in 1991 to serve our community as the CEO of Clermont Senior Services. I was even more delighted when George became a columnist for The Clermont Sun some 10 or 12 years ago. In those early years George wrote many informative columns about services for older adults and a number of excellent columns on the subjects of leadership and the dynamics of relationships, such as

his exposé titled “My 10 rules for a happy marriage.” Then, for reasons that neither I nor other readers, I’m sure, could begin to understand George’s topics drifted to stories about his hiking and camping adventures, which sometimes included mysterious encounters with nature’s creatures: foxes, raccoons, alligators, hawks, and snakes, and more. Like me, as you read these stories, you no doubt thought to yourself, “My, what an amazing and exciting life George leads. He certainly is a brave man.” Still, I admit – and dare I say – I have on occasion questioned the veracity of some of his stories. Could George Brown be the Paul Bunyan of Clermont County? No. He has won too many honors for the integrity and honesty of his writing to be called in question, as though he were a teller of tall tales. You may recall, for example, that he recently received the coveted George Washington Cherry Tree Truth-in-Writing Award. Plus, George recently told me (privately)

that he was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize in guest columns. Such honors would never be bestowed upon George if there was even an iota of falsehood in his writings. In George’s absence this past weekend, I was thrilled to spend Saturday morning with his delightful, though beleaguered, wife Yvonne Sue. I placed a call to Yvonne proposing that we spend a quiet morning together at the Cincinnati Nature Center. Dear readers, I confess, while I always enjoy time spent with my dear cousin, I secretly hoped, as we strolled and conversed, that I might at last learn the story behind the legendary tales that have come from George Brown’s pen. And so it was that I met up with Yvonne at 9 a.m. at the Nature Center this past Saturday morning for a long overdue girl-time hike. I deferred to Yvonne in the selection of a route and being the fit outdoorswoman that she is, Yvonne selected the challenging Redwing Trail. It was hard

those grown at Armstrong Farm in South Charleston, Ohio help make our state the nation’s 7th largest soybean producer. I recently spoke with a sixth-generation family farmer at Armstrong Farms who told me that “there’s a huge void between development and commercialization” for Ohio farmers who are working with researchers to get bio-based products to the marketplace. There are more than 130 bio-based manufacturers already operating in Ohio that make products ranging from natural pet foods, biobased paint, to soy ink, and toner. To find a bio-based manufacturer near where you live, visit my website at www.brown.senate.gov to view a county-by-county map. In September at OSU, I held a roundtable with Ohio’s bio-based leaders to discuss the tremendous need – and potential – for an

Grow it here, make it here “Grow it here, make it here.” That’s the driving message behind a new initiative to create jobs by linking two of Ohio’s most important industries: agriculture and manufacturing. Ohio farmers put food on tables, grow feed for livestock, and develop new sources of energy for our cars and homes. And increasingly, Ohio farmers grow feedstocks that are being turned into plastics, lubricants, and chemicals. Meanwhile, Ohio manufacturers are not only producing iron, steel, and auto parts, but are finding new business opportunities in emerging markets – like clean energy. Agriculture and manufacturing are two of Ohio’s greatest industries – creating good-paying, middle class employment opportunities and the resources needed to build a stronger, more vibrant economy. Biobased manufacturing – the marriage of manufacturing and agriculture – can pro-

FLASHBACKS

Grant Career Center Business Professionals of America State Competitive events winners include Mickayla Dahlheimer, Ciara Mills, Amber Binning, Amanda Walls, Jacob Bishop, Jade See, Brittany Bates, Kayla Taulbee, and Brianna Jackson.

Grant students reach new heights at competition In mid March, the Grant Career Center chapter of the Business Professionals of America proved that they were ready to “Reach New Heights” at the national competition by competing in the State Skill Competition and Leadership Conference in Columbus and bringing back numerous awards. Sixteen BPA members traveled to Columbus for two days of testing and competitive events. During their stay, the students participated in social events and a variety of activities at the Columbus Convention Center. Students were competing with Business Professionals of America members from all across the state of Ohio. Grant Career Center students who were recognized for their outstanding achievements by placing in the top ten at the state level include Jacob Bishop, a senior from Williamsburg, Advanced Accounting; Kayla Taulbee, a junior from New Richmond, Keyboarding Production; Jade See, a senior from Williamsburg, Integrated Office Applications; Ciara Mills, a junior from New Richmond, Basic Office Systems and Procedures; Brianna Jackson, a junior from Bethel-Tate, Interview Skills, and Amanda Walls, a New Richmond senior, Advanced Office Systems and Procedures. Three students earned the opportunity to represent Grant Career Center at the National Leadership Conference in Chicago, Illinois, April 25-28, 2012. Bringing home a first place trophy for Fundamental Word Processing Skills was Amber Binning, a New Richmond senior in the Medical Information Tech program. Amber’s competition consisted of document formatting and a test of office skills. She was required to format a business letter, a news release, a two-page report and a memorandum. Amber said, “When I placed first, I was shocked. I knew I had made some mistakes and didn’t expect to place at all. I am honored to represent Grant Career Center at nationals and I am definitely excited about vis-

iting Chicago!” Also bringing back a first place trophy was Business and Finance student Brittany Bates, a Williamsburg senior who competed in the Advanced Spreadsheet competition. According to Brittany, “I had to create a spreadsheet to reflect video game sales. I arranged the games in alphabetical order and created a formula to find the sum of all sales and subtotal the genres. I was shocked when I was announced as the first place winner. I am very excited to showcase my skills at the national level and am excited to go site seeing in the Windy City!” Placing fifth and earning a spot at Nationals was Mickayla Dahlheimer, a Medical Information Tech senior from Bethel-Tate who competed in Advanced Office Systems and Procedures. “It is a great honor and privilege to represent Grant at the BPA National Conference. My contest consisted of skills needed to excel in an office setting. I demonstrated skills in efficient office operation and the formatting of office documents and reports. I am looking forward to trying Chicago Pizza!” she said. The students will join approximately 6000 conference delegates from across the nation as they participate in national-level business skill competitions, workshops, certification testing, general sessions, and the national officer elections. Students will also have the opportunity to visit historical sites and places of interest in the Chicago, Illinois area. The Business Professionals of America organization strives to teach students leadership, employability and social skills while preparing them to enter the business world with professionalism and pride. If you would more information on how you can explore the business professions at Grant Career Center and enroll in the Business and Finance or the Medical Information Technology programs, visit our website at www.grantcareer.com or call (513) 734-6222.

15 Years Ago May 15, 1997 Milford gets busy on red-ribbon plan After Milford levy voters said yes to a tax levy after three defeats, the obvious question is will the Milford school board follow up in implementing recommendations set forth by the Red Ribbon Commission. Milford school district voters approved a 4.8-mill tax levy May 6. 5,195-4,544. The levy will raise $2.56 million annually. Board President George Lucas said he was “ecstatic” about the levy passing and that implementation of the commission’s recommendations will be discussed at the tonight’s board of education meeting. “I felt pretty good about this levy,” Lucas said. “I don’t know what else could have been done to get it through. We haven’t had a good track record. I’ve noticed a turnaround in attitude from people and we’ll discuss those new recommendations on Thursday.” Dick Berish, the co-chair of the Red Ribbon Commission, is also optimistic about the district’s future. Berish said the board is actively pursuing the accepted recommendations. Within three days of the levy passing, the board faxed a four-page job description for the proposed business manager to Berish. “They’re not letting any grass grow,” Berish said. “The job description they sent was pretty much the same as what we recommended except in more detail. They make the final decision of course, but I’d expect they’d take the commission’s opinion seriously.”

Congestion on I-275 causes public concern Congestion on Interstate 275 is attracting some attention. At the April 22 “public involvement meeting” at Union Township Hall, 60 people showed up to ask questions and receive information about possible improvements to the highway. At the more recent May 8 meeting, 50 people were in attendance. The meetings are part of an Ohio Department of Transporta-

tion study of the Interstate 275 corridor between Five Mile Road and U.S. 50 in Union and Anderson townships, along with several surrounding roads. This evaluation was prompted when a traffic projection of the area indicated “unacceptable levels of congestion and delay” by the year 2010.

25 Years Ago May 14, 1987 Pit bull dog owners protest tough new law A proposed New Richmond ordinance has begun drawing heat from pit bull dog owners. Council members were scheduled to give the second of three required readings of the proposed ordinance at Tuesday’s council meeting. Members of the Ohio Valley American Pit Bull Terrier Association were also scheduled to be at the meeting and voice their objections. The association filed suit in April against a Cincinnati law which bans pit bulls and said similar litigation is possible if the New Richmond proposal becomes law. Pam Peterson treasurer of the association, said the group is not opposed to laws against vicious or dangerous dogs, so long as the legislation does not single out individual breeds.

Ohio EPA to seek funds for lake cleanup The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency is expected to submit application to the federal E.P.A., seeking money for the clean-up of Stonelick Lake. The state conducted a water quality study at the lake last year and found it to contain sediment, organic and nutrient pollution. A study by the state E.P.A. also found elevated levels of iron and manganese in the water. An application for funds is expected to be completed and submitted by August. Funding, if approved, would be through the federal E.P.A.’s Clean Lakes Program. The program would provide funds to study the water and then to correct the water problems. Three requests are being submitted by the state to the federal level for possible funding.

40 Years Ago May 11, 1972 $50,000 gift made for new county hospital The first $50,000 on a $250,000 gift to the new Clermont County Hospital was presented to members of the hospital commission May 4 by Mrs. Georgette Shahood, trustee of the Edmund G. Burke estate, and the attorney for the estate, Fred Khoury. Mrs. Shahood, who is the sister of the late Karlene Burke, wife of the philanthropist who was a native of Bethel, presented the check to J. Kermit Smith, chairman of the hospital site on Bauer Rd., east of Batavia. Mrs. Shahood, her husband John Khoury, members of the hospital commission and architects and contractors toured the $4.5 million hospital. Because of the generosity of provisions in Mr. Burke’s will for the Bethel community and because Mr. Burke provided that if a hospital was started in the county within five years after his death (he died May 8. 1966), the hospital commission was able to proceed with the hospital as originally planned. High bids otherwise would have required the commission to drop some plans for the hospital. The diagnostic and treatment wing of the hospital has been designated the “Edmund Glenn Burke Memorial Pavilion.

Q: If I have been injured on the job, how do I get paid? A: Temporary total disability (TTD) benefits provided for under Ohio law are designed to replace wages if you are unable to work while you are recovering from your injury. Q: How would these benefits calculated for me? A: Temporary total disability benefits are paid for the first 12 weeks after your injury, based on a calculation of your full weekly wage. This calculation is based on an average of the six weeks immediately before the injury or the last full week of your employment, whichever is greater. After 12 weeks of inability to work, temporary total benefits are based on the average weekly wage, which is determined from the 52

weeks of your earnings before your industrial injury. To get paid, you and your doctor must complete a C84 form verifying your inability to return to your former position at work. You would receive a maximum of $809 per week in benefits every two weeks for a 2012 injury. Q: For how long can I receive TTD benefits? A: These benefits can be paid indefinitely, but usually are paid only until: (1) you return to work; (2) your treating physician states, in writing, that you are capable of returning to your former employment

position; (3) your employer or another employer provides you with work within your physical capabilities; (4) you have reached “maximum medical improvement.” You likely will have to attend periodic examinations (usually 90 days) with a Bureau of Workers’ Compensation (BWC) examiner, or periodic medical examinations scheduled by your employer to determine if benefits should continue. A hearing before the Industrial Commission hearing officer is sometimes also necessary to determine whether or not further benefits can be paid. Q: Can I work while receiving TTD benefits? A: Generally, no. Working for pay while on TTD benefits can constitute fraud and is subject to severe criminal penalties. Before

returning to any work-like activity while on TTD, you should consult an attorney and discuss any possible return to work with your doctor. Q: Can I continue to get any benefits after I am released to return to work? A: If your physician has released you with restrictions, and you cannot return to your former position, you may qualify for wage loss benefits. There are two types of wage loss benefits: working wage loss and non-working wage loss. If, for example, you have returned to work, but are working fewer hours, you may be entitled to working wage loss benefits equal to two-thirds of the difference between your average weekly wage and your earnings. This can be paid over a period of ap-

proximately 200 weeks, depending on how long your restrictions are in place. If you are released to return to work and your job is no longer available, you may look for work within your physical restrictions while receiving benefits for nonworking wage loss. These benefits are paid for at least 26 weeks and up to a maximum of 52 weeks. For both types of benefits, you must meet certain requirements. You must register with the Ohio Department of Jobs and Family Services, the organization that helps injured workers find suitable employment. You must also search for a new job, and demonstrate this by making at least 15 - 20 contacts per week and reporting to the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation. The BWC does check to see if you are

making the job contacts before your benefits will be payable. Your physician also must certify your working restrictions. Q: Do I need a lawyer? A: Most workers’ compensation claims are simple matters if they only involve a trip to an emergency room and payment of the bill, but more complicated cases involving time away from work may require a lawyer’s help. Q: Where can I get more information? A: Visit the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation website at www.ohiobwc.com. This “Law You Can Use” column was provided by the Ohio State Bar Association. It was prepared by Columbus attorney David Barnhart of the Philip J. Fulton Law Office. Articles ap-

In many ways, this initiative is about using Ohiogrown crops to make Ohio-made products. Together, we can “grow it here, and make it here,” – creating new jobs while also strengthening our environment, supporting local economies, and ending America’s reliance on foreign energy sources.

The company made payment and did not engage in further negotiations after issuing the partial denial of benefits. After viewing the record in a light most favorable to Dennis - which is what we must do when reviewing a case that was decided on

summary judgment - we concluded that Nationwide offered to pay for the part of the claim it deemed itself liable for, that it denied all other claims, that it had a limitation-of-action clause in its policy, that it informed Dennis of the clause, that it asserted the clause at every possible instance, and that Dennis was not induced to forbear filing suit by any-

judgment or animosity, but simply that the truth may be known. M.E. Steele-Pierce is Assistant Superintendent of West Clermont Schools. She lives in Miami Township.

Steele-Pierce: George’s columns Continued from page 4 for me to keep up with her, but she is a kind woman and she stopped often for me to catch up, rest, and quench my thirst from her canteen. As we made our way along the trail Yvonne began to share with me her many hiking adventures and sometimes encounters with wild critters: foxes, raccoons, alligators, hawks, and snakes, and more. Wait! I thought. These stories sound strangely familiar. Could it be? Could George Brown, my adopted cousin in whom I have come to place great trust, have been taking his wife’s true adventures, personalizing and embellishing them for effect, and then passing them off as his own? Surely not! I began shaking my head as if to shake off this horrid thought, but my doubts were interrupted by Yvonne’s voice. “Listen,” she said. “Do you hear that? It’s the chick-burr, chickburr of a Piranga olivacea.” Her voice was clear and authoritative as she spoke. I looked up hoping to catch sight of the scarlet male, but instead of seeing this rare bird, there, tangled in the high branches were the threadbare remnants of...what? I squinted and pointed upward, unable to discern what the tattered and faded object was that had caught my eye. Yvonne paused and gazed up at the object for a long moment. “That’s my backpack,” she whispered. In an instant up the tree she shimmied, strong and swift. Like Katniss Everdeen she moved with purpose and agility. Out on the limb, she went. (Note to reader: I did question her climbing that tree because the trail guide says, ‘Pack it in. Pack it out,” but then it all made sense as she called down to me, “I’m packing my backpack out of here.”) Thump. The faded backpack landed at my feet. “How do you know this is yours?” I asked as she made her way down. She spoke with a tone of confidence and achievement. “It’s a North Face Badlands George gave to me for our 40th wedding anniversary. I lost it in battle with a sow raccoon on this trail three years ago. “She panted as she hit the ground and exclaimed, “Look inside.”

Ohio-led bio-based industry in the United States. The “Grow it Here, Make it Here” initiative would facilitate more partnerships between agriculture and manufacturing to create jobs and promote economic development across Ohio. Our initiative would help our farmers and manufacturers do even more to meet our economic, environmental, and energy needs through bio-based manufacturing. This bio-based manufacturing legislation would strengthen an existing program that certifies and labels products so consumers can better choose ones that

are bio-based. It would also strengthen the bio-based market and help families make more-informed consumer choices. Second, it helps biobased manufacturers access loan assistance that could help expand operations and hire new workers. Third, the Act would help bridge the gap between development and commercialization that is often the most difficult challenge for any emerging industry. By streamlining existing U.S. Department of Agriculture resources, the Act would help the commercialization of bio-based products and technologies that are developed right here in America.

Carpenter wins 2012 Clermont County Fair Book Cover Contest

B R O A D S H E E T

BY ART HUNTER Jon Carpenter, of Blowville in Jackson Township, has won the 2012 Clermont County Fairbook Cover Contest. Carpenter, who is the advisor for the Maple Rey Milk and More 4-H Club, said he took the theme determined by the fairboard, “creating memories,” and designed a cover that re-

sembles a scrapbook page. “It was pretty easy for me,” Carpenter said. “I used my memories, each photograph is a different memory of my kids.” Five of Carpenters six children are 4-H members and show projects at the fair each year. Carpenter says that when he was young, he also was a 4-H member and showed many types of animals.

Carpenter is no stranger to the fair book cover contest. The entry he submitted two years ago was also chosen by the fair board, and was also a winner in the Ohio Fair Managers Association cover contest. “That one won first place for medium sized fairs,” Clermont County Fair Board member Bea Faul said. “He does fantastic work.”

Patricia McMinn, 76, has passed away Patricia Compton (Anstaett) McMinn, 76, returned to God Sunday, May 6, surrounded by loving family and friends. She leaves her beloved husband of nearly 20 years, John; five children, Terry, Bryan, Dwight, Brent and Julia Anstaett; eight grandchildren; two great grandchildren; sister, Joyce Morgan; and step-mother, Eukie Compton. Also surviving are John’s remaining child, Melinda Darst, and his two grandchildren. Born in Detroit, Michigan Sept. 4, 1935 to Elliott Acker & Merab (nee Hand) Compton, Patti received her nursing degree from Raymond Walters College and worked as a nurse for Bethesda Hospitals for many years. She attended Unity Church of Today in Monroe, was a member of the Soup Group at the Countryside Y, and enjoyed reading and nature, particularly birds. The following testimony from a friend speaks to who she was: “You are a star, a flower in a meadow, a hug I love! You are warm Scotch broth on a winter’s day by the fire. You are the impish grin sitting there in the choir. You are the quote ‘I just get my work done so I can live my life’. You are encouragement. You are Joel Goldsmith paragraphs. You were so frustrated with things and then transformed before me to a woman of peace, grace and love. You mean the world to me…to all of us. You are a shining

example of transformation to me. Thank you for your wisdom, your hugs, and for the gift of you.” The family will celebrate this kind and loving woman devoted to God and her family at 3 p.m. Saturday, June 2 at the family farm located at 1832 Oregonia Rd., Lebanon.

In lieu of flowers, donations are suggested to Hospice of Cincinnati. A private interment will take place in Miami Cemetery, Corwin with arrangements by Oswald-Hoskins Funeral Home, Lebanon. Online condolences available at www.hoskinsfh.com.

COUNTRY TABLE BY MARCY WILSON Hasn’t the asparagus been wonderful this year? It’s a good buy at the grocery now, and this simple recipe is a good way to let the natural flavor of the asparagus shine through.

Asparagus with Cremini Mushrooms 8 oz. cremini mushrooms, cut into smallish pieces 1 pound asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2” pieces 1 small sweet onion, thinly sliced Olive oil Zest of one lemon Salt and pepper to taste

B R O A D S H E E T

Heat a skillet on medium high and add oil. Saute mushrooms, asparagus and onion for about 10 minutes, until cooked through. Asparagus will be crunchy and bright green. Sprinkle lemon zest over and season to taste.

Country Kitchen Wisdom • Tips on fresh asparagus should be compact and tightly furled. • Asparagus contains folate and vitamin E. • Store asparagus away from light in the back of the refrigerator or in the produce drawer. • Cremini mushrooms are baby portabellas.

The Drug Enforcement Agency reports a record amount of old or unwanted prescription drugs were turned in during the fourth annual National Prescription Drug Take Back Day. On Saturday, April 28, citizens turned in 276 tons of prescription drugs at sites across America. In Clermont County, nearly 250 pounds of medications were turned in, according to the Coalition for a Drug Free Clermont County. Throughout the four years of the collections, over 774 tons of old prescription medication has been collected and destroyed nationwide. "We are pleased at the response of the American people once again, and we thank them for participating and contributing to the battle against prescription drug abuse,” said DEA Administrator Michele M. Leonhart in a news release. “Those who brought drugs to the drop off sites in Clermont County told us they knew they weren’t supposed to flush the drugs down the toilet, because it could create an environmental hazard,” said Clermont Coalition Director Heidi Nykolayko. “Most of the people told us they held on

to the medications because they were unsure what to do with them. They appreciated being able to have the opportunity to dispose of the drugs in a safe way.” Law enforcement agencies from the Clermont County Sheriff’s Office, Amelia, Bethel, Milford, Pierce Township, Union Township and the Batavia Fire department took part in the local collection. Nykolayko said drugs collected across the sites in Clermont County included antibiotics, codeine, pain pills, anti- depressants, and other drugs that were transported in shopping bags, boxes and backpacks to the disposal sites.

The DEA-led initiative addresses a vital public safety and public health issue. Medicines that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse, and abuse. Rates of prescription drug abuse in the U.S. are alarmingly high–more Americans currently abuse prescription drugs than the number of those using cocaine, hallucinogens, and heroin combined, according to the 2010 National Survey on Drug Use and Health. Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including from the home medicine cabinet.

SR 74 and Amelia-Olive Branch Road. “And when they re-opened College Drive, those two things were definitely needed.” Elaine Didday, another resident who lives close to Old SR 74 also said the light was necessary. “It’s been lots better,” Didday said about using the road since the light was installed. “I’ve had no trouble at all now that the light is in.” Royer said that so far, he believes many residents understand the need for the project. He said residents have until May 11 to submit comments about the proposed widening plan. A detailed design for the project is scheduled to begin in May, and construction is scheduled to begin in March of 2015. Written statements regarding the project may be submitted to 2381 Clermont Center Drive, Batavia Ohio 45103.

A public open house was held at the Clermont County Engineer’s Office April 26 to give residents a chance to ask questions and submit comments about the planned improvements for Old State Route 74 in Batavia and Union townships. The proposed improvements include widening Old SR 74 between Olive Branch-Stonelick Road and Armstrong Boulevard from two lanes to three lanes, widening the road around the existing centerline and installing a sidewalk along part of the road. “The traffic increased when we opened the connector to the college,” Doug Royer, deputy engineer, said about the reason for the project. “The need to get a left turn lane onto Amelia-Olive Branch is for safety purposes.” Royer said they installed a temporary traffic signal at the intersection of Old SR 74 and Amelia-Olive Branch Road already, because they knew it would take several years for the widening project to be complete. He said the proposed plan will widen the road eight feet on both sides to create a turn lane in the center of the road. “On top of that, there will be a widened berm area for safety, and the sidewalk on one side,” Royer said. Royer said the sidewalk will run along the south side of Old SR 74 from Amelia-Olive Branch Road to Armstrong Boulevard and will provide a safer place for residents to walk. Several residents, as

well as township officials, attended the open house to submit feedback about the project. Brian Humphries, a resident whose property will be affected by the project, said he is in favor of the improvements, but isn’t thrilled about the idea of widening the road. “It is a necessary evil but I don’t like it getting closer to my house,” Humphries said. Humphries said he remembers a time when it was safe for children to ride bikes and play near the road, but with the increase in traffic that is not a possibility today. He said the widening project will bring the road in closer to his front door, and while he doesn’t like it, he understands the reasons for the improvements. “The stop light was essential,” Humphries said about the temporary light at the intersection of Old

Ohio EPA seeks to fund water improvement projects Approximately $3 million in federal grants for stream water quality improvement will be available through Ohio EPA. The application deadline is the close of business June 1. Projects designed to reduce nonpoint source pollution in streams where aquatic life is suffering from soil and pollution runoff will be given priority. A local 40 percent match of total project costs is required for these grants. Types of eligible projects include: • Stream restoration and/or dam removal/modification projects; • wetland restoration and/or renaturalization; • innovative storm water demonstration projects; • inland lake management and restoration; • agricultural best management practices and projects; • acid mine drainage abatement and abandoned

mine reclamation project; • riparian restoration projects; and • riparian and wetland protection and conservation easements. Applications must include project-specific educational and public outreach activities describing how the successes of the project will be communicated throughout the affected community. Nonpoint source (NPS) pollution is the leading cause of water quality impairment in the United States. Also known as polluted runoff, NPS pollution is caused by rain or snowmelt moving over and through the ground, picking up natural and human-made pollutants and depositing them in lakes, rivers, wetlands and other waterways. Polluted runoff can have harmful effects on drinking water supplies, recreation, fisheries, and wildlife. In 1987, Section

319 of the federal Clean Water Act amendments created a national grant program to control NPS pollution. Ohio EPA administers this grant program with funding from U.S. EPA, distributing more than $3 million each year to projects proposed by local governments and community organizations. More information about the grants is available online. Completed applications may be mailed or delivered to Russ Gibson, NPS Program Manager, or Martha Spurbeck, Ohio EPA/Division of Surface Water, P.O. Box 1049, Columbus, Ohio 432161049. Upon receipt, all grant applications will be reviewed for completeness, technical merit and adherence to the 1987 Amendments to the Clean Water Act, U.S. EPA Section 319(h) Program Guidance, and 2013 request for proposals criteria.

The Bribery Charge is a fourth degree felony and the Interfering with Civil Rights charges are first degree misdemeanors. The charges stem from activities Renchen allegedly engaged in during the absentee voting period leading up to the November 8, 2011 elections. Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine’s office released information on the

tioned. Hurt said he could not comment directly on Renchen’s alleged actions because of the ongoing criminal case against him, but he did say that it was important to protect the voting process. “Elections are a sacred part of our society and they must be fair and appropriately accurate”, he said. Herdman agreed, saying “We must be very protective of the process and our duty as (election) board members is to maintain the integrity of the system.” Hurt also said that there has been a substantial increase in the number of people taking advantage of early voting and casting absentee ballots in their homes, and that they need to be protected when doing so. “People deserve to be able to vote in privacy and to vote

concerns about possible retaliation against them for coming forward. Renchen had not had any further court proceedings scheduled at press time. He served as mayor of Aberdeen from 2007 to 2011. Renchen did not win the village council election, ending up tied with Aberdeen Village Clerk Bernice Jones, with 208 votes each. The election was decided by a coin flip, with Jones winning. Jones later declined to take her seat on council.

With a unanimous vote April 24, the Georgetown Village Council voted to shut down the Commercial Building Code Department and sever all ties with Santoro Engineering, the firm used by the village for those services. Council member Tony Applegate said May 1 that the action was taken “because the building department was a two year experiment that wasn’t working”. Georgetown Mayor Dale Cahall said on May 1 that the village was still exploring the procedure for ending the contractual relationship with Santoro Engineering, and that the Commercial Building Code Department would be “wound down” according to the proper procedures and timelines. Prior to the establishment of local inspections, such services were performed by certified inspectors from other areas, including Clermont County. The inspections for safety, occupancy and other standards are required by Ohio Revised Code. “We feel this change will benefit the citizens of Georgetown”, Applegate said. In other business at the meeting, council had its first reading on an ordinance establishing new rates and charges for the collection and disposal of garbage and refuse in Georgetown. The ordinance states that

effective April, 2013 new rates and charges for garbage collection and disposal, basic service will be $10.56 per month for regular residential and $9.30 per month for Golden Buckeye card holders. The board also talked about the Grant Days held in the village as well as the Georgetown/Pleasant Township Cleanup Days held April 26-28. “We are all very happy about receiving 58 percent in survey information which would allow the village to qualify for a $500,000 CDBG (Community Development Block Grant),” said Kelly Jones, village administrator. “We only needed 51 percent to qualify. So now everything is in place and I will begin the application process. These funds will be used on our sewer project.” Jones announced that August 18 had been set for tire Amnesty Day for the village, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the recycling center in Georgetown. Jones also told council that he had received the signed agreement from Duke Energy on the purchase of the Villa/Georgetown Station infrastructure. “Duke will be sending me the invoices in the near future,” Jones added. “Once I receive them and pay Duke for their property, then we will complete the changeover. The next meeting of the Georgetown Village Council is set for Thursday, May 10 at 7:30 p.m.

Brown County Prosecuting Attorney Jessica Little also stressed the importance of the integrity of the voting process. “A secret ballot, freely cast, is vital to maintaining our democratic system”, Little said. “Anything or anyone that interferes with that is attacking the very foundation of our society.” Little added that the identities of the alleged victims are being withheld because of

Milford Lacrosse Club coach Brian Cross came to Cincinnati 23 years ago and started the club nine years ago. The Eagles have gone to four straight state championship games, winning one in 2010.

Milford Lacrosse Club brings growing game to Clermont BY CHRIS CHANEY Sun staff

For a long time, lacrosse wasn’t considered a very popular Midwest sport, but as the game has grown over the past two decades, Brian Cross filled a need in Clermont County. “We got started nine years ago,” Cross said. “I started the club by putting out fliers and we were able to field three teams. It’s grown to over 300 kids in the program. We play in the club division in Ohio, there’s about 24 or 25 teams in the division.” Cross, a native New Yorker, moved to the Cincinnati area in 1989 and played on a men’s lacrosse team for six or seven years. Four years after his playing days were over, Cross, who still kept in contact with some of his former teammates, was urged to start a club team on the west side of Cincinnati because there weren’t many teams on this side of town. With the bug in his ear, Cross decided to pull the trigger on the idea because as a lifelong lacrosse player and fan, he felt it was his duty to spread the game.

“I played the game ever since I was a little kid. I played in high school and college,” Cross said. “It was more about me giving back to the game that I grew up playing. “It was exciting to start something. I didn’t know how far it would go, but it’s grown to a point where it’s pretty big.” Cross explained how lacrosse is the fastest growing sport in the country, but over the past two decades or so, the Midwest has really picked up on the sport and adopted it as one of its own. Columbus has had the sport for a number of years and Cincinnati first adopted it in the early 1990s. Overall, when Cross came to the area, there were only 18 or 19 teams, but even in the last decade that number has more than doubled. “The game just continues to grow,” Cross said. “There are more and more kids in the youth programs and it’s moving up towards Dayton and filling that gap between Columbus and Cincinnati.” The Milford Club has grown as well, not only from a numbers standpoint, but also in terms of success.

Cross’ varsity team has been to the state finals each of the last four years, winning the state title in 2010. “We’re looking to try and return to the finals again this year,” Cross said. “Our team this year is young. We graduated 21 seniors last year and a lot of people had a quick initiation to the varsity level.” Milford has had some returning seniors who have provided leadership and experience. Cole Ciambro, a senior midfielder, has committed to play his college lacrosse at Limestone College. Ciambro was named First Team All-State after his junior season and has been a big part of what Milford’s been able to accomplish. The Eagles have had some problems so far this year with injuries, forcing Cross to bring up some players from the junior varsity team. “We’re pretty athletic this year,” Cross said, “except that we have been injuryriddled. Seven to eight players are out, so we’re down to about 16 kids. “We’re young to begin with, but these guys are a bunch of fighters. No one’s

complained about being injured, they just keep fighting every game.” The Eagles are 5-7 so far this season with two games remaining on the regular season schedule, but still feel confident that they can make a run at their fifth consecutive state final. “We want to keep getting better as a team,” Cross said of his expectations for the postseason. “Our expectations are to be back in the state finals. We continue to keep playing Division I and II teams during the regular season to help our kids get better, but we’ll play club teams in the tournament. When we see those club teams, our team is a little more prepared. “We expect to get back to the state finals, so that’s what we keep our focus on.” Milford will play Mariemont on Wednesday, May 9. The Eagles then wrap up their season with a game versus Loveland on Friday, May 11.

Azizbeck Ruziboev is the name that no tennis player in Clermont County wants to see on their schedule. His powerful serve and agility all over the court has made him nearly impossible to beat. Coming to the United States with his family from Uzbekistan when he was 10 years old, Az (pronounced “oz”), as his he known, picked up a racquet just a year later. Now, at age 17, he is the premier tennis player in Clermont County, one of the best in the region, and he hopes, a contender in the state. “Azizbeck’s just a real hard hitter, especially for this area,” Amelia head coach Rick McMullen said. “He is a just a dominant player. In two years, he’s never been taken three sets by anybody (in the league). He’s only given up six or eight games combined the entire year in the SBC.” Coming to Amelia, Azizbeck had to sit out his freshman year because of a stress fracture in his lower back, but showed that he had serious game during his sophomore season.

Ruziboev went undefeated in the league and was named the Southern Buckeye Conference Player of the Year. Ruziboev went 241 during his sophomore season and made it to the sectional finals where he lost to Elder’s Drew Schroeder. Coming up short a year ago has only added more fuel to Azizbeck’s fire. Ruziboev works on his game year-round, playing club tennis. “In the past, Azizbeck has trained at the Five Seasons up in Mason,” McMullen said. “This year, he switched and he’s training at Queen City.” Ruziboev picked up right where he left off last year, going undefeated once again in league play at 210, along with winning the Tom Ball Western Brown Tennis Classic for the second consecutive year. With the regular season finished, Azizbeck has turned his focus to the sectional tournament at the Lindner Family Tennis Center in Mason, home of the Western & Southern Open, a professional tennis event. Ruziboev was seeded Ruziboev, Page B14

The Ohio High School Athletic Association sectional tournaments kicked off this week with ten schools competing in six different sectional tournaments. The class of the county could be Milford as the Eagles take a stellar 6-game winning streak into their second round matchup with the winner of the Ross and

Hamilton. Entering the last week of the season in a tie for first place in the Fort Ancient Valley Conference, Milford dispatched of second-place Loveland twice to guarantee themselves a conference championship. The Eagles received a 12 seed in the Division I – Cincinnati 5 sectional, which head coach Tom Kilgore was pleased with. “I think we got a pretty good draw. We happen to be

Milford won the Fort Ancient Valley Conference by virtue of ending the season winning six straight games.

in the same sectional as Mason, but if you’re fortunate enough get to the sectional finals, you’re going to have to beat somebody that’s good,” Kilgore said. “We were happy to get a bye in the first round and a home game in the second round in hopes that we’re successful in that second game and get to play Mason in the sectional finals.” Glen Este, the other school coming out of the FAVC is favored to win its first-round matchup with Winton Woods. The Trojans finished the season 13-12 and in the middle of the conference. Despite losing their last two games of the regular season, the Trojans believe that with solid pitching and timely hitting they can make a run past secondround opponent, Harrison. Coming out of the Southern Buckeye Conference, there is any number of teams with an opportunity to make a run. In the SBC-American Division, New Richmond, Bethel, Clermont Northeastern and Western Brown all tied for first-place honors with identical conference records of 6-4. The Lions would seem to be the favorite as they reached as high as No. 1 in the state early in the season after starting off 16-0. New Richmond finished 3-4, but at the time of the seed meet-

ing, they were awarded the No. 1 seed. However, the Lions may have to go through some familiar foes to reach the sectional final. A New Richmond-Bethel second-round matchup seems inevitable with the winner of that game possibly facing Clermont Northeastern in the sectional final if the seeds play out by number. Amelia and Goshen, the other two teams from the SBC-American, faced difficult first-round matchups on Tuesday, May 8. The Barons, seeded 27th, face the No. 10 seed Lakota West and the 11th-seeded Warriors travel to seventhseeded Wilmington. Winners of the SBC-National Division, Batavia dispatched of Ripley-Union 10-0 in their first-round game on Monday and moved on to face Summit Country Day on Wednesday, May 9. Felicity and Williamsburg saw their seasons come to an end on Monday, May 7 as the Cardinals lost to New Miami and the Wildcats fell to Purcell Marian 5-0.

Ruziboev: Junior eyes state Continued from B1

Ruziboev was seeded third in the Cincinnati Division I sectional. There are only four players seeded in each sectional. “We were really happy to get seeded in the Division I tournament,” McMullen said. “That doesn’t happen very often, if ever, out here. The fact that he’s seeded should help him to move along from the sectionals to the districts and with a little

bit of luck, up from the districts to the state.” Ruziboev will face Connor Sullivan from Oak Hills in the first round of the sectional tournament on Friday, May 11. Going beyond his high school career, Az seems to

have his priorities straightened out. He hopes to play tennis on the college level, but the school would be dependent upon their dental program. McMullen said in talking to Ruziboev that his first choice right now would be Northern Kentucky University. The Norse are moving from Division II to Division I next season and that will give Azizbeck better competition, including teaming up with the guy who beat

him in the sectional finals last season. First and foremost for Ruziboev is a trip to the state tournament, however. “Ultimately, Azizbeck’s goal is to make it to the state match,” McMullen said. “Whether that’s possible this year, we’ll have to wait and see. But with another year of maturing and getting some more training under his belt, we’re hoping that his career ends at the state match.”

Felicity-Franklin and CNE are on a collision course BY CHRIS CHANEY Sun staff

Clermont County has two legitimate state contenders who played in the same conference, but will not face each other for the first time all season unless they both make it to the regional finals. Felicity and Clermont Northeastern, both led by outstanding pitchers, have ran through their respective regular season schedules, going a combined 41-1. Those solid records have garnered the schools the top two seeds in Division III, with CNE receiving the No. 1 seed simply by virtue of a draw. The seeding really doesn’t make much difference to either school as they both have the sights focused well upstate. “We’ve been trying to get to state for four years and this is the last chance that a lot of us on our team will have with us being seniors,” Felicity pitcher Montana Wear said. “We want to go and beat CNE in the regional finals and try to get to state.” As for CNE, the Lady Rockets made a regional final appearance last season, but want to better that state run in 2012. “We realize it’s a lot of hard work and there are a lot of good teams to get through,” CNE head coach Bill Goldfuss said, “but we want to get back to where were last year and make amends for last season.” While those two teams made easy work of their first-round games, some of their fellow SBC schools were able to advance through as well. In Division I, No. 11

seeded Amelia defeated Seton 4-2 to put themselves through to the second round where No. 7-seeded Turpin awaits. Milford also won their first-round game, taking down Walunt Hills 18-2. For their troubles, the Lady Eagles faced the secondseeded Fairfield Indians on Wednesday, May 9. Third-seeded Glen Este, the final Division I team, enjoyed a first-round bye and played No. 21 Mount Notre Dame on Wednesday. If Milford is able to pull the upset and Glen Este can take care of business against MND, the FAVC rivals will face off in the sectional final on Monday, May 14 at Kings. In Division II, two Southern Buckeye Conference teams faced-off in the first round as No. 6 Batavia hosted No. 8 Goshen on Tuesday, May 8. Both New Richmond and Bethel got first-round byes, but will likely play higher seeded teams on Thursday. Williamsburg, the No. 6 seed, was leading their firstround opponent, No. 5seeded Cincinnati Christian 9-7 in the bottom of the eighth inning on Monday, May 7 before the game was suspended due to weather. The Lady Wildcats traveled back to Cincinnati Christian on Tuesday to conclude the game. Depending on the outcome, the Lady Wildcats could play No. 7 Taylor.

Goshen deals with injuries BY CHRIS CHANEY Sun staff

The Goshen High School track and field team has struggled to keep a full roster this season as the boys’ team has been decimated by injuries and the girls’ team lacks the numbers to compete in every event. The Warriors have fought gallantly, however, finishing well in most of their meets this season despite the obstacles the team has had to overcome. “Right now, we’re pretty well devastated with injuries,” head coach Jack Bailey said of his boys’ team. “We’re just not as strong as we’d hoped we’d be at this time of year just because we’ve had so many kids with a variety of injuries. “My best sprinter has a pulled hamstring, my best hurdler has real bad shin splint s and may only be able to run in one event. Our high jumper rolled his ankle a couple of weeks ago stepping on the upright. He should be able to compete I think, but he’s not 100 percent. “Our possibilities aren’t as good as what we had hoped they would be at this time of year, mostly because of the injuries we’ve incurred the last few weeks. On the bright side for Bailey and his squad, the team is pretty young with no seniors on the team. While that doesn’t necessarily bode well for this postseason, there is hope going forward. With most of the injuries coming in the last few weeks, the Warriors were able to log some solid finishes in the beginning of the

season. Bailey said that the Warriors did well in the Western Brown Invitational on April 17, but their best finish came at their own meet, the Goshen Track Invitational where they finished fifth. They also showed well at the Polar Bear Relays held at Bethel-Tate where Goshen finished seventh out of 14 teams. The Warriors have some promising athletes, but their success will depend mainly on their health. Bailey believes that the Warrior throwers will be able to compete because they have stayed relatively healthy. Junior Calvin Phillips and sophomore Darren Wiley throw the discus and the shot put for Goshen. The health questions arise in the other events as high jumper Nick Messer continues to come back from his turned ankle. Bailey believes one of the

Warriors best bets is in the 300-meter hurdles if Brandon Steele can stay healthy, but his shin splints have really hampered him. On the girls’ side, Bailey said that despite having only nine members on the team, they have some girls with some skills that he believes can do well individually. Like some other teams around the area who are hampered by small numbers, the Lady Warriors may not do all that well in the team competitions from a purely numbers standpoint, but the individuals have a good chance to compete in both the league meet as well as districts. “We have a couple pole vaulters, Tierra Martinelli and Sarah Briggs, who should do well,” Bailey said. “We have some distance runners, Brittany Clark and Courtney Turner, who should do pretty well in the league meet and our

4x800 relay should be pretty decent I think. So, we’ll compete pretty well in some events, but we don’t have a lot of girls that can compete in a lot of events.” The girls ran well at the CHCA Meet last week where they finished seventh out of 10 teams as well at the Goshen High School Track Invitational where they finished fourth out of eight teams. “Obviously we’re hoping we can do well in the boys’ high jump and the girls’ pole vault, hopefully we can score some points there,” Bailey said. “Our throwers we think we can do very well in the league meet. “For our girls, we’re hoping to compete in the distance events and the pole vault.” The Southern Buckeye Conference Meet was held on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week and the Districts begin at the end of next week.

Goshen has dealt with some injuries during the second half of the season. High jumper Nick Messer rolled his ankle, but still hopes to compete in the league meet.
