Sayre hired as new GHHS principal

By ALAN FROMAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Grandview Heights Board of Education May 20 approved the hiring of Dawn Sayre as Grandview Heights High School principal.

Sayre currently serves as an assistant principal at Hilliard Bradley High School.

The board approved a two-year contract with Sayre with a salary of $94,000.

Her first day will be Aug. 1.

“I expect we’ll be seeing a lot of Dawn before then,” Superintendent Ed O’Reil-

ly said. “She’s already started meeting the staff and attending some of our activities. She has a marvelous work ethic.”

Sayre was one of five finalists for the principal position interviewed earlier this month.

She was the first choice of each committee member, O’Reilly said.

“What stands out when talking with Dawn is that her focus is always on the students,” he said.

The varied assignments Sayre has received as an assistant principal in Hilliard has provided her with the experience need-

ed for the Grandview principal position, O’Reilly said.

In a small district like Grandview, a principal must wear many hats, he said.

“She has a very well-rounded background that sets her up well” for those responsibilities, he said.

Sayre is in her first year as assistant principal at Hilliard Bradley, the district’s newest high school. She served from 2006-2010 as assistant principal at Hilliard Darby High School.

Since 2006, Sayre has served as Hilliard’s summer school principal and

she was assistant athletics director from 2004-06 at Hilliard Darby.

She began her career in education as a physical education teacher from 19972006 at Hilliard Darby. She served as varsity girls basketball coach in 2003-04 at Jonathan Alder High School and has also served as assistant girls basketball and soccer coach in Hilliard and assistant girls basketball coach for South-Western City Schools.

Sayre earned a bachelor of arts degree in education from Otterbein College and a master of arts in educational leadership

and administration and supervision certification from the University of Dayton.

She is working toward obtaining superintendent licensure from Dayton.

Grandview received 77 applications for the high school principal position, which opened after Jesse Truett resigned.

The large and impressive field of applicants indicates the high standing Grandview has among educators, he said.

“That’s a tribute to the truly wonderful group of students we have and our outstanding staff at the high school,” O’Reilly said.

The Grandview Heights municipal swimming pool opens for a new season on Saturday, May 28, after an off-season of repairs designed to fix problems that plagued the pool last summer.

The pool was forced to close twice last year, for eight days in June and again on Labor Day, the last day of the season, said Sean Robey, parks and recreation director.

A pump failure caused the June closing, he said.

While repairs were being made last summer, an arrangement was made that allowed Grandview passholders access to Upper Arlington’s pools, Robey said.

“We have a great relationship with Upper Arlington and we appreciated their help last year,” he said.

Although repairs were made, the problem occurred again during the Labor Day weekend, Robey said.

“We’ve replaced both of the pumps and motors and we believe that’s resolved the problem,” he said. “We’re hoping we’ll be able to keep the pool open every day this year.”

Improvements were also made to the pool well and the filter media was replaced in two sand filters, Robey said. Electrical work “that people won’t see” was also done in the basement of the pool facility.

“We also had some ‘fun’ improvements” including the addi-

“

tion of a few more shade umbrellas and several more chaise lounges.

“We now have 10 shade umbrellas and about 36 of the chairs,” Robey said. “People really seem to like them.”

Three new diving boards have also been installed at the pool, he said.

Grandview resident Ryan Horn will again be serving as pool manager this summer, Robey said.

Pool memberships in March and April were up 17 percent over last year, he said.

“That might have something to do with the economy and high gas prices,” Robey said. “Perhaps people are looking for fun things to do closer to home.”

The pool will be open for its first day from 1 to 8 p.m. on Saturday.

The facility will be open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. every day with these exceptions: 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Memorial Day, Aug. 1-16, Aug. 20-21, Aug. 27-28 and Sept. 3-5.

Commission recommends zoning district plan for Yard

By ALAN FROMAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Grandview Heights Planning Commission voted May 18 to recommend city council approval of a Grandview Yard Mixed Use District and to rezone the appropriate parcels into the new district.

The matter will now be sent to city council for final approval.

Prior to its regular May 18 meeting,

the commission held a third and final workshop to review revisions to a draft of district standards.

Patrik Bowman, director of administration/economic development, went over some of the major changes that had been made to the document based on the discussion at the previous workshop on May 4.

The document now more clearly defines when an application or issues such

as signage within the district should come before the planning commission or when they are “minor” and could be handled by an administrative review, Bowman said.

Another change places the administrative review under the auspices of the mayor rather than the director of building and zoning, as was originally proposed, he said.

The document also spells out in more

detail what an applicant is required to provide when they are submitting an application within the district, Bowman said.

In response to concerns commission members raised about parking, the document now states that a parking plan must be submitted as part of any plan for review, said Chris Hermann, an architect with MSI Design firm, which is working with Nationwide Realty Investors.

Commission member Tom Komlanc said the document should include a provision indicating that signage should provide simple and clear “way-finding” for motorists looking for specific businesses.

Such language can be added to the document, which remains a work in progress even as it goes through its final approval, See PLAN, page A2

Student from India enjoys year in Grandview POOL

By ALAN FROMAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

As he prepares to return home to Nagpur, India, David Kuruvilla is looking back with fondness on the year he spent in Grandview Heights.

Kuruvilla, who spent the school year attending Grandview Heights High School as a foreign exchange student, said the experience “has been everything I hoped it would be.

“It’s been great,” he said. “I’ve learned a lot and I’ve been able to see a lot of things and make a lot of friends I think will still be friends even after I go home.”

It hasn’t all been about education, Kuruvilla said.

“I got the chance to try a lot of new food,” he said. “My favorite is Chipotle. I’m really going to miss that.”

Grandview is a much smaller place than Nagpur, and Kuruvilla said he likes the com-

pactness.

“You can walk everywhere. It’s great,” he said. “And you get to know everybody, which is nice. My school at home is so much bigger.”

School is easier here than at home, Kuruvilla said.

“Things are so much more lenient. Here you have study guides to help you with your classes,” he said. “Back home, the classes are so much harder. We have notebooks we have to fill out ourselves.”

He was able to take classes in Grandview that aren’t offered at his home school, Kuruvilla said.

“I got to take French, which I really enjoyed,” he said. “I’m able to speak four other languages, so I enjoyed getting the chance to learn a little French. I’m pretty good at learning languages.”

Kuruvilla said he already knew a lot about America before he came.

“I have an aunt who lives in Florida,” he

said. “I wasn’t really surprised by anything, but still, it’s a different experience actually seeing things yourself.”

Among his favorite experiences was being able to play sports, like baseball, that aren’t offered at his school, Kuruvilla said.

“I also really liked playing laser tag,” he said.

Grandview students seemed to be learning as much from his visit as he was, Kuruvilla said.

“A lot of people asked me a lot of questions about India,” he said. “They asked things like is Dubai in India, when it’s in a whole other part of the world, or do we have cell phones in India.”

The students in Grandview, though, were extremely friendly and welcoming, Kuruvilla said.

“I really had a great time,” he said. “I’d love to be able to come back to America to go to college. I hope I can do that.” www.ThisWeekNEWS.com

Grandview Farmers Market has PLAN earlier start, new location

Continued from page A1

By ALAN FROMAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The Grandview Avenue Farmers Market will begin its eighth season on Saturday, June 4, at a new location.

The market will be held from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. each Saturday through Oct. 29 just north of Third Avenue in the parking lot adjacent to Vino Vino and Figlio’s restaurant.

“We had 13 vendors participating last year in the parking lot at Panzera’s Pizza and we realized if we wanted the market to grow, which we do, we needed a larger location,” said Becky Hetteberg, who serves as market coordinator with Dorothy Pritchard.

A new slate of sponsors is presenting this year’s market, including The Wagenbrenner Company, Small Business Beanstalk, Pearl Alley Growers Association, Sustainable Grandview and Friends of 43212, the civic arm of the Fifth by Northwest Area Commission.

“We’re really grateful to our sponsors, especially Wagenbrenner for providing us with a larger location,” Hetteberg said.

This year’s market is starting a

month earlier than usual, Hetteberg said.

“We’re responding to people who’ve asked us if we could start the market earlier in the spring,” she said. “There are some markets that get started in May.” The Grandview market will have a limited set of vendors with spring produce for the first few weeks until more vendors are ready to bring their produce to market, Hetteberg said. The full roster of vendors will be set up beginning at the July 9 market.

“We’re anticipating adding more vendors this year,” especially Ohio Proud participants, she said.

Among the vendors participating in June will be Jacquemin Farms, who will be selling freshly picked strawberries from their farm at the June 11 and June 18 markets, Hetteberg said.

June is National Dairy Month, and the market is partnering with Snowville Creamery to display an exhibit during the month providing information about dairy farming and dairy products.

Snowville will not be selling at the market, “but we’d like to have dairy vendors at some point,” Hetteberg said.

Each week two or three bakers will participate in the market, she said.

“We want to be careful, because we don’t want to compete with the local businesses that sell baked goods,” Hetteberg said. “But it’s a nice addition to the market” to have bakers.

Live music will be featured each week at the market and a weekly drawing will award a pair of movie tickets to the Grandview Theater.

Slots for guest vendors who will participate once a month will also be offered at this year’s market, Hetteberg said.

Visitors to the market will be able to pick up a “recipe of the week.” The recipes will be created by local chefs and can be made using market produce.

Information about the market will be posted on the Fifth by Northwest Area Commission web site (fifthbynorthwest.org) and on Facebook and Twitter.

Anyone interested in being a vendor or who would like to perform music at the market should contact Hetteberg at info@fifthbynorthwest.org.

The Grandview Avenue Farmers Market is managed by the Pearl Alley Growers Association.

Bowman said.

In addition to voting to recommend the zoning district and rezoning, the commission during its regular meeting also approved a major site plan review for a parking lot NRI will build on the west side of Bobcat Avenue adjacent to the existing parking garage at the Yard.

In April, the commission approved a lot split for the parking lot, but tabled the vote on the site plan review.

Architect Keith Meyers of MSI offered more information to provide a context for why the second parking lot is needed.

The lot will help address the additional parking expected to come from two anticipated developments in the Yard, one on Goodale and the other that would be located on a site to the north of the parking lot, he said.

In response to concerns raised last month, the access point will now be located farther south, Meyers said.

The application also now includes a more detailed landscaping plan for the parking lot, he said.

Fire Chief Steve Shaner has reviewed the parking lot application

The concession stand will be open from noon to 7 p.m. daily.

The cost of pool memberships for Grandview and Marble Cliff residents range from $90 for singles to $245 for a family of six and an additional $20 for each additional family member exceeding six.

The cost for non-residents ranges from $135 for singles to $335 for a family of six.

Staff members retiring from Edison at end of school year eling a lot to spend time with them and with my husband,” Gauntner said.

Continued from page A1 son as an intervention and reading specialist.

“I enjoy the kids so much,” she said.

“I enjoy the whole process of trying to identify what kids need and coming up with a plan to help them be successful in the classroom. I enjoy working with classroom teachers, too.”

Gauntner was inspired to become an educator while in high school.

“I was inspired by a teacher I worked with,” she said. “She was a reading specialist and having the chance to work with her, I knew this was what I wanted to do.”

After starting out as a teacher in Vinton County, Gauntner said she realized her interest lay more in being a reading specialist.

Working closely with individual students has meant a lot to her, she said.

“The kids are what make it rewarding,” Gauntner said. “Just to see them continue to develop and see the progress they make and helping them become better problem solvers, that makes it special.”

Grandview parents are also special, she said.

“They have been wonderful to work with,” Gauntner said. “And I’ve been fortunate to work with some of the most qualified educators at Edison. It’s been a wonderful opportunity to grow and learn from my colleagues.”

Her first year of retirement will be spent traveling, she said.

“I have a big family and I’ll be trav-

Lindsay Graves, sixth-grade intervention specialist.

Graves has spent 19 years of her 20year career in Grandview at Edison.

Being an intervention specialist “can be so rewarding when you help a child get past a block to their learning,” she said.

“I’ve been fortunate getting to work with sixth-graders, because I think that’s the best age of all,” Graves said.

In sixth grade, students still have the enthusiasm of elementary students while having gained some of the wisdom and worldliness of older youngsters, she said.

“Yet they haven’t gained that skepticism” that seems to develop in seventh grade, Graves said.

Teaching in Grandview “has been a privilege,” she said.

“The students come from such wonderful families,” Graves said. “They are supported by their parents and they have respect for their teachers and other students. I’m fortunate to have been able to teach in Grandview.”

The best part of teaching may be having the chance to meet new students each year “and really get to know them,” she said. “Each child has an individual way of learning and that’s fascinating to me.”

Graves’ last day isn’t until July, “so I haven’t really made any plans yet” for her retirement.

“I still have a way to go yet,” she said

Steve Newton, fifth-grade math teacher.

Newton has spent 32 of his 33 years as a teacher in Grandview.

Along with two stints at Edison, both when it was an elementary school and later as a middle school teacher, Newton also spent a decade teaching at Stevenson.

“I’ve had the opportunity to teach just about everything — English, science, math and social studies,” he said. “I guess teaching social studies is what I enjoy the most.”

Like Gauntner, Newton was inspired to go into education by a teacher, his sixth-grade teacher, Marilyn Greene.

“I had started out at Catholic school and I just didn’t like it,” he said. “When I went to public school, it was a revolution for me. Suddenly, school was fun.

Greene “was the first teacher I really liked. She was so nice,” Newton said.

“From sixth grade on, all the way through high school I liked school. I had always wanted to coach and the way to do that was to become a teacher.”

He was also inspired by his father, who worked as a home builder and taught him a lot of things he now uses as a math teacher, he said.

Each new school year brings rejuvenation for a teacher, Newton said.

“Each year is a new beginning and that helps keep it fun,” he said.

Working in Grandview has also been fun, Newton said.

“Grandview is such a unique place, there’s no place like it,” he said. “When I first started here, I thought I might

work a couple years in Grandview. I never expected to spend 32 years here.

“When I think about it, all my best friends are here,” Newton said. “I’ll still see them on occasion, but it’s going to be hard to leave.”

Along with teaching, Newton also has a love of motorcycles.

“I don’t have any specific plans yet for my retirement, but I’m sure I’ll end up working in something that’s motorcycle-related,” he said.

Holly Quigley, fourth-grade intervention specialist Quigley is completing her 21st and final year in Grandview. She started working as a high school tutor in the district before earning a master’s degree in special education and becoming an intervention specialist.

“It’s such rewarding work,” she said.

“I come up with strategies that help kids who learn differently be more successful. Every child is different and I really enjoy coming up with the strategy that can help each individual student” reach his or her potential.

“It’s exciting to see them progress and become more independent,” Quigley said.

In addition to the students, Grandview has amazing parents, she said.

“That’s one of the pleasures, to get to work with such great parents,” Quigley said.

In many respects, her work as an intervention specialist offers a more challenging but also stimulating experience than a regular classroom, she said.

“I’m always learning something.

You’re always looking for new things to try,” Quigley said. “Working with kids who learn differently, it’s fun, because of their excitement when they succeed.”

Quigley said she plans to take a year off after she retires before deciding what she will do next.

Paula Sarrey, occupational therapist Sarrey has spent five years in Grandview, including stints at Stevenson and the high school as well as Edison.

During her 36-year career as an occupational therapist, Sarrey has also worked in the Upper Arlington school district and at the Educational Service Center of Central Ohio.

In a school setting, occupational therapy often relates to helping students use their eyes and hands together, she said.

“The thing I get the most satisfaction out of is the conscientiousness of the children,” Sarrey said. “It’s such a good feeling to help them be better students.

“I’m probably not going to see the ultimate outcome, because what they learn in occupational therapy gives them skills they’ll be using throughout their life,” she said. “It’s nice to know you’ve helped them.”

She said she’ll miss the “collaborative effort” of working with the classroom teachers at Edison.

“We’re all working together” for students’ benefit “and it’s been great to be part of that effort.” www.thisweeknews.com

As it were

Memorial Day 1911: Parades, services, decoration of graves It was a rainy Sunday in Columbus on the weekend before Memorial Day in 1911. But that did not stop a lot of people from “making an excursion” to the city.

According to a local newspaper of ED the time, more than LENTZ 5,000 people arrived in the city by train and interurban railway from places as distant as Cleveland, Cincinnati and Parkersburg, W. Va. They came to see the sites, visit local amusement parks and shop in the stores of the capital city.

Among the more popular sites were the Statehouse, the campus of Ohio State University and the institutions for the blind, the deaf, the mentally ill and the criminally penitent.

This was, after all, the weekend before Memorial Day and one might assume that people were simply celebrating a long three-day weekend.

But that is not what they were doing at all.

In 1911, Memorial Day was celebrated on May 30 — no matter what day of the week it might happen to be. In 1911, it happened to be Tuesday, so most of these people seeking, as one reporter put it, “spots where cooling breezes ought to blow” or “places where inspiring liquors ought to flow” had a nice day in the capital city, boarded their trains and left central Ohio for a working day on Monday in their hometowns.

While most people in Columbus went about their business on Monday, May 29, several dozen others were working furiously to prepare for the holiday that was only one day away.

And there was a lot of work to do.

Local veterans and civic organizations combined with social service organizations to plan and prepare a full day of activities for Memorial Day. It was begun as a day to remember the men who died serving their country in the Civil War, but it also had become increasingly a time to remember veterans of all of America’s wars and a Decoration Day for family plots in America’s cemeteries, as well.

While there were parades to plan and religious services to prepare, most of the real work of Memorial Day involved flowers — lots and lots of flowers.

In 1911, the organizers of Memorial Day planned to put an American flag and a bouquet of flowers on the grave of every veteran in the city. To that end, the school children of Columbus were asked to bring bouquets of flowers to the Franklin County Memorial Hall on Monday, May 29. Because there was some doubt, the public was asked to bring flowers, as well.

There was no reason to worry.

By Tuesday morning, there were

early and often.

And then there were some people who were not free to attend these events. As one paper put it, “Because it is Memorial Day, and in appreciation of things they have done and may do for their country, prisoners at the Workhouse who are Civil War or Spanish-American War veterans, or members of the regular army or national guard, at noon today will be served with a special dinner.

“Although the services for the Civil and Spanish war veterans at the Penitentiary Sunday were attended by 98 former soldiers, but three of them served in the Civil War and 95 during the Spanish-American War … The number of Civil War veterans has greatly decreased during the past 10 years, by deaths and pardons. The 98 men have organized Walled City Camp and hold meetings just as the old soldiers do at Memorial Hall.”

Other people attended all or part of the downtown observances and then departed for family gatherings in local parks or on the front porches of their homes. In the evening, the residents of many Columbus neighborhoods gathered for a fireworks celebration and further festivities.

All in all, it was a quite pleasant day for the unofficial beginning of the summer of 1911 in Columbus.

Franklin County Memorial Hall, 280 E. Broad St., in 1908.

more than enough flowers to accompany the 2,500 American flags to be placed in cemeteries around the city: “Carnations, roses, peonies and syringa blossoms were the most numerous in the collection.”

At 7:30 a.m. on the morning of Memorial Day, veterans groups met at Memorial Hall in uniform, marched a few blocks to Statehouse Square and boarded streetcars to ride to Green Lawn and Mount Calvary cemeteries. They were soon followed by hundreds of people who joined them at the cemeteries for services.

At 9 a.m., flowers were placed at the McKinley Memorial in front of the Statehouse and at 11 a.m., a 46-gun artillery salute was fired in the Statehouse yard by local soldiers from the Columbus Barracks (now Fort Hayes).

At 1 p.m., local veterans groups, military organizations, marching bands and most of the Columbus Police Department formed up for a march through downtown Columbus. Returning to Memorial Hall, many of the marchers stayed to listen to a program of music and patriotic speeches. Religious services also were held in a number of local churches through the day.

Many people did not stay downtown for all of these events.

Some had left town early in the day, since most businesses, schools and offices were closed and the excursion cars to Buckeye Lake, Griggs Dam and local amusement parks were running

Girls Basketball

Hall steps down as coach of Bobcats

By SCOTT HENNEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Steve Hall has resigned as coach of the Grandview Heights High School girls basketball team, citing the desire to spend more time with his family as the reason.

Hall spent 12 seasons leading the program.

Last season, the Bobcats finished 12-11 overall after losing to top-seeded Africentric 83-37 in a Division III district semifinal.

“I have a son, Eli, 11, who is in the fifth grade and a daughter, Emma, 9, who is in the third grade. I looked at the situation and realized I would be missing a lot of their growing up,” Hall said.

“There is a huge time commitment to run a program and I think it’s time that I took a step back and looked at what’s important to me, which is my family.”

In the MSL-Cardinal Division last season, Grandview finished fourth at 8-6, behind champion Harvest Prep (14-0).

“This past year’s group was great to work with because they were coachable and worked well together. They really liked being around each other,” said Hall, whose staff included varsity assistant Michelle Chavanne and junior varsity coach Brian O’Mara. “We have a good group of eighth-grade girls coming up, and it’s a good time for a new coach to come in and groom them for four years.”

Athletics director Kathy Kinnard said the Bobcats were fortunate to have Hall.

“Steve is a great teacher, coach, and person,” Kinnard said. “His dedication to our young people is evident in any conversation you have with him.

He is what you look for in a head coach — competent in the sport, effective communicator with young people, dedicated and professional, a positive role model, a leader of the program.”

Hall plans to remain a math teacher at the high school and coach the girls tennis team.

“Steve is passionate about the sport of basketball and yet has a healthy perspective of where basketball fits into a teenager’s life,” Kinnard said.

“Coaching, if you do it right, and Steve does, takes a great deal of time. Being the head coach of a high school sports program has evolved into an allyear commitment. I am grateful that Steve has been our head basketball coach and I am grateful that he continues to be the head coach of our girls tennis team.”

Before entering the coaching ranks, the 6-foot-8 Hall was an all-state player at Haviland Wayne Trace and finished his playing career in 1992 as a fouryear letterwinner at Ohio State.

“There is a fine line, because through the years coaching, I’ve spent time coaching everyone

Girls track team cruises at district

By SCOTT HENNEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

By Paul Vernon/ThisWeek

Emily Lachey qualified for the regional meet in the 800 meters and three relays to help the Bobcats girls track team cruise to a Division III district title May 21 at Gahanna.

Another weekend, another championship for the Grandview Heights High School girls track and field team.

The Bobcats blew away the competition in the 31-team Division III district meet that concluded May 21 at Gahanna by scoring 100.5 points.

Mount Gilead was a distant second with 69 points as 26 teams scored.

It was the fourth championship in as many weeks for Grandview, which won titles in the Bobcat Booster Invitational on April 29, Friday Night at Grandview Heights meet on May 6, MSL-Cardinal Division meet on May 13 at Berne Union and the district meet.

“It’s great to win a title and this is the third year in a row that the girls have been district

champions,” coach Brian Schoch said. “I hope they understand how great of an accomplishment this is, especially with 31 teams in one district. But our kids expect to do well because they have had success in the past and expect to continue that.”

Leading the way for Bobcats was senior Sarah Meier. After winning league titles in the 100 meters, 200, 100 hurdles and 300 hurdles a week earlier, she won the 100 hurdles (15.27 seconds), 200 (26.33) and 300 hurdles (45.73) and also was a member of the winning 1,600 relay (4:09.66) with Jordan Fitzgerald, Caitlyn Saric, and Emily Lachey.

The top four finishers in each event advanced to the regional meet, which began May 25 and will conclude Friday, May 27, at Fairfield Union. The top four in each event at regional advance to the state meet June 3-4 at Ohio

State.

Fitzgerald won the 400 (1:02), and Hannah Stefanoff won the 3,200 (11:51.78). Stefanoff joined Halli Bair, Anna Davis and Lachey on the winning 3,200 relay (10:08.57).

“One of the guys on the team said Jordan Fitzgerald was ‘the quiet champion,’ and I guess that’s right,” Schoch said. “She won the 400 and anchored both the (800) and (1,600) relays. She was seventh in the 400 (1:04.56) last year (at district) and won it by a second this time. It’s great to see someone like Jordan excel the way she has been.”

•The boys track and field team has a second-place trophy from the Division III district meet but maybe not for long.

At the conclusion of the meet on May 21, official results had the Bobcats finishing third (66.5) See BOBCATS, page B2

Ready Roundup

Softball team lets ‘one get away’ in final

By JARROD ULREY ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The biggest positive the Ready High School softball team took from its Division III district runner-up finish May 20 at Pickerington Central was that it had hung with top-seeded Liberty Union for two days before losing 3-2.

Despite having his team enter the postseason as the eighth seed, Silver Knights coach Nick Joseph believed all along that his team, as he phrased it, “wasn’t that bad.”

“We lost a lot of games early when we played one day and sat five,” said Joseph, who completed his 20th season leading the program. “I know (Liberty Union) was an extremely strong team, and we let one get away.”

See HALL, page B2 Playing without senior shortstop Dani

Pugh after she broke her leg while sliding into home during a 7-5 win over East Knox in a district semifinal May 16, Ready built an early lead in the district final, which began May 19.

Senior Haley Widner opened the game with a double, Katie Ardrey singled and Alexis Mayle followed with a two-run double to make it 2-0.

The top-seeded Lions answered with one run in the bottom of the first and got two more in the third to take a 3-2 lead.

The game was suspended because of rain in the bottom of the fourth, and neither team got much going offensively after that until Ready’s at-bat in the seventh. In that inning, Widner reached on a one-out single, but Ardrey was ruled out for dead-ball interference attempting to bunt Widner over.

Ready finished 17-7 overall and 3-3

in the CCL to tie Hartley for second behind DeSales (6-0) and ahead of Watterson (1-5).

Ready opened the district tournament with a 19-0 win over Linden-McKinley on May 9 and defeated Madison Plains 8-2 in the second round on May 11.

Pugh hit better than .520 to lead a senior class that also had Ardrey, Widner, Sam Curry, Lindsey Kusan and Allison Lichwa.

Next season, Ardrey will play for Hillsdale College in Michigan, Pugh will play for Indiana-Purdue Fort Wayne and Widner will play for James Madison.

Juniors Erin Bennett and Mara Waldo, sophomores Emily Finchum and Alexis Mayle and freshman Haylee Patel should be the most experienced returnees next season.

“A lot of kids will be back, and we’ve

got a couple young kids that we think will help us,” Joseph said.

•It hasn’t taken long for junior Halston Jones to make an impact for the boys track and field program.

A first-year competitor in the sport, Jones found a place earlier this spring on both the 400- and 800-meter relays.

In the Division III district meet May 21 at Gahanna, both relays captured championships to advance to the regional meet that began May 25 and concludes Friday, May 27, at Fairfield Union.

The 400 relay ran a time of 44.34 seconds, and the 800 relay finished in 1:32.8.

Jones runs on the relays along with Demetrius Clark, Nick Frye and Taron Slone.

“It’s really exciting,” Jones said. “It’s See READY, page B2

Commentary

Senior trio hopes to fuel Hartley girls to team title This weekend’s high school regional track and field meets are the final step to reaching a major goal for many athletes in central Ohio, which is qualifying for the state meet June 3-4 in Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium at Ohio State.

The thrill of running, jumping, vaulting or throwing in the final event of the prep sports year is worth every second of preparation for most competitors.

For three seniors at Hartley, the state meet represents not only another chance to win individual titles, but to recapture the Division II team championship.

Aisha Cavin and Maya Pedersen were members of the Hartley team that finished third in Division II when they were freshmen and the team that won the Division II state title a year later. Chelsea Scott joined Cavin and Pedersen last year and helped the Hawks finish second to Cleveland Collinwood.

Now, the girls are determined to make their last high school meet memorable.

“I think the state championship meet

is nerve-wracking for us because we are Hartley and know what is expected of us,” Pedersen said.

“We are a legacy in high school girls track and always will be, so it’s our responsibility LARRY to our school to move LARSON our performances up a notch.”

Scott agreed with her teammate.

“This final meet is a chance to showcase our talents and show everyone that we are still on top, and running in this meet is really fun and exciting,” she said.

Cavin, who won last year’s state title in the 400 meters, said, “This meet is different for us because of what it means for our school and that makes it all the better.”

Looking ahead to what they face at state, Scott said it won’t be easy for the Hawks to win the title.

“We have to be better this year than we were a year ago,” she said. “There are some outstanding teams out there including our neighbor, Eastmoor, who will challenge us, so we have to keep honest and work hard.”

Pedersen said she, Cavin and Scott must lead the way.

“The three of us have to set the example all day for our underclassmen, who will have to produce for us to win the team title,” Pedersen said. “Our confidence has to remain high and we have to use our ability to the fullest.”

Cavin had a different outlook on her final high school competition.

“I know it will be as exciting as ever and I wouldn’t change anything at all that happened over the past three years, but it will have a bit of sadness knowing this is the last time we will be together representing our school,” Cavin said. “So we need to make the most of it and I think we are ready for it, because other runners know who we are and it’s our job to

get the best results.”

Reflecting on their love for the sport and where it has taken them, the three Hawks standouts have slightly different views.

“As a sprinter, track is really just about going out there and running as fast as you can and I love the thrill of it,” Calvin said.

“There is a technical side and a mental side that are very important, but if you can keep your mind clear you can achieve many things.”

“Track has opened my eyes to so many things and it makes you have strength inside and out,” Pedersen said. “Success comes from proving yourself and developing discipline in every aspect of the sport. I love the fact that it becomes mind over matter.”

“I love the fact that you are surrounded with friends who have the same goals that I do,” Scott said. “No one is slacking off and when times are rough you go through them together. That is what I will remember about this experience at

Hartley.”

Coach Richard Jones has been the architect for Hartley’s success. Pedersen said he deserves all the credit for what she and her teammates have achieved.

“Coach Jones is Hartley. He has shaped every one of us into who we are as runners,” she said. “The mental attitude and the confident mindset we have is all due to him. He has made me a better runner and, more important, a better person.”

Describing what it will take to win the Division II state title next week, Cavin said the Hawks can’t let down.

“The thing that comes into to my mind first is that we need to turn into superheroes at the state meet,” she said. “We need to be proud of the ‘H’that we wear on our uniforms and use the power we have to run well and capture our dreams.”

The Hartley trio of “superheroes” and their supporting cast have two weekends left to prove their point.

I’ll see you at the state meet.

Ready’s Sam Curry makes the tag too late as Tori Holstein of Liberty Union safely slides into third base during the Silver Knights’ 3-2 loss in a Division III district final May 20 at Pickerington Central.

READY Continued from page B1 my first year with the team this year. Coach (Dean) Tower came up and talked to me before the season, so I decided to sign up for it. We’ve just run faster and faster times each week.”

The other three members of the relays each advanced to the regional in individual events as well.

Clark moved on in both the 100 (third, 11.36) and 200 (fourth, 23.59), Frye was district champion in the 110 hurdles (14.82) and Slone was district champion in the 100 (11.09).

The top four finishers in each district event advanced to regional, where the top four in each event advance to the state meet June 3-4 at Ohio State.

Cody McCoy finished fifth in the shot put (40 feet, 10 1/2 inches).

The boys team placed fifth (57) of the 21 teams that scored at district behind champion Columbus Academy (83.5).

Tower believed his team had a good shot of advancing to regional in the 400 relay, as the Silver Knights finished 14th at state in the event last year.

“Morris threw 41-11, which is a really good throw, and I know she feels good about it,” Tower said. “Culbertson was only fifth in the 100 but she ran a (personal-best time).”

The girls team finished sixth (40) of the 22 teams that scored in the Division II district meet that concluded May 21 at Hamilton Township, behind champion Hartley (111).

Senior Emily Morris, who has advanced to the state meet in the shot put the past three years, julrey@thisweeknews.com won a district title in the event www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

behind Columbus Academy (83.5) and Berne Union (67) as 20 teams scored.

“All I know is they gave us the runner-up trophy during the awards ceremony and no one has asked us to give it back yet,” Schoch said. “As of right now, we still finished as runner-up in the district.”

Joe Trapp led the Bobcats with a title in the 200 (22.7) and as a member of three regional-qualifying relays — the 400 (second, 44.74), 800 (second, 1:32.96) and 1,600 (third, 3:37.75).

Freshman Luke Evans was able to shake off a disqualification in the MSL-Cardinal meet in the 3,200 to win the event at district in 10:15.2. His finish was 10 seconds better than in the league meet eight days earlier.

Evans would have finished second in the 3,200 in the league meet but was disqualified because of a uniform violation, as a segment of half-inch gray stitching on one side of the black tights he wore underneath his uniform was showing.

“You talk about a chance for a comeback after what Luke had gone through at the league meet,” Schoch said. “It was definitely one of the many highlights we had at district. For him to come back and win the twomile shows that he not only has a lot of talent, but a lot of determination and he really showed his stuff.”

•The baseball team finished 7-15 overall and 5-9 in the MSLCardinal behind champion Licking Heights (12-2).

The Bobcats lost to Worthington Christian 7-1 in the first round of the Division III district tournament.

Senior starting pitcher A.J. Finlay struggled with his control early, giving up five runs in the first two innings.

“Once A.J. got going, every-

thing was fine,” said coach Brian Thomas, who completed his second season leading the program.

“When A.J. is pitching well, he can compete with anyone. But it was too late because we gave up too many unearned runs and (Worthington Christian) made some nice plays.”

Finlay was 4-6 with a 3.88 ERA in 63 2/3 innings. He struck out 66 with 45 walks and hit 10 batters. He led the Bobcats at the plate, hitting .377 with nine doubles, two triples, one home run, 18 RBI, 19 runs and four stolen bases.

nior outfielder Colin Ridgeway batted .242 with 15 runs and five stolen bases.

Senior pitcher Noah McKnight was 1-3 with a 4.75 ERA in 22 1/3 innings and had 16 strikeouts and 23 walks.

Rounding out the nine-player senior class was Greg Damschroder (INF), Eric Van Deusen (INF) and Kyle Wandel (1B).

“I think the seniors did a great job of working out in the offseason, but unfortunately it didn’t equate into wins,” Thomas said.

“But they really set the tone for the younger kids.”

Two of the top players expected back are sophomore pitcher Nick Peck (0-4, 6.46 ERA, 26 innings, 18 strikeouts, 8 walks) and freshman catcher Josh Keller (.260 average, 13 runs, 8 RBI, 2 triples, 4 stolen bases).

“Josh Keller caught for us this year except for the week he missed with a concussion, but he got some great experience as a freshman,” said Thomas, whose team had a .266 batting average and a team ERA of 4.60.

“He will be playing with the (Columbus) Warhawks (travel team) this summer. We expect him to only get better. And Nick Peck will only get better. He threw a two-run, two-hit game (April 29) against Fisher Catholic, which reached the district final in the (Division IV) district tournament (losing 14-2 to top-seeded Newark Catholic on May 21).”

In addition to Peck and Keller, expected to return are junior Ethan Calvert (OF/P), sophomores Alex Cochran (OF/C), Nick Dunham (C/INF), Craig Flowers (INF), Max Joseph (OF) and Nick Perez (INF) and freshmen Gage Baskind (INF/P), David Kuruvilla (OF), A.J. Pinyerd (1B/P) and Nick Schopis (OF).

Financial finesse

Be prepared by getting pre-approved Despite countless stories about the troubles in the housing market, there are many options available. That said, the first step in determining whether or not to shop for that new home is to discuss your financial situation with a trusted mortgage professional and get pre-approved.

A pre-approval is one of two common processes prospective homebuyers engage in before making an offer on a home; prequalification is the other.

Both allow customers to begin the buying process with a good idea of what they can afford, but there are clear advantages to going one step beyond pre-qualification to get pre-approved.

Pre-qualification uses a homebuyer’s financial information — income, debts and other monthly obligations, such as child support payments — to determine a buyer’s debt ratio. Depending

on how much or how little is available for a down payment, this process helps to determine the size mortBRIAN gage the BURSTEIN buyer can afford and the type of mortgage that best meets the buyer’s needs.

Pre-approval takes the approval process to the end — almost. Only a few items remain outstanding, such as an appraisal of the property and confirmation the buyer will have whatever cash is needed for the closing.

For a comparatively small fee — usually about $50 — lenders will work through the steps necessary to receive a mortgage.

Buyers who get pre-approved

know exactly which financial guidelines they are working within. The pre-approved buyer has the lender’s approval for a specific mortgage amount. Lenders and real estate agents sometimes say pre-approval is the “same as cash,” which can often be an advantage in beating out other buyers.

Searching for the right home, arranging a comfortable mortgage and closing the deal can be a challenging process. So doing a little legwork up front by becoming pre-approved can make the other challenges a whole lot easier.
