Spending cuts take effect No budging at budget-cuts deadline WASHINGTON (AP) — Gridlocked once more, President Barack Obama and Republican congressional leaders refused to budge in their budget standoff Friday as $85 billion in across-theboard spending cuts bore down on individual Americans and the nation’s still-recovering economy.

Chamber holds dinner Young man, woman of year named

Kenley Blake didn’t have to travel by tornado or follow the yellow brick road to the land of Oz because she already is an Emerald City Kid. The 12-year-old, sixthgrade student at Troy Christian Elementary School was one of only 10 children selected to be paid extras on the set of the Disney movie “Oz The Great and Powerful,” which opens in theaters next Friday.

“It was my first time ever being on a movie set — it was really impressive,” she said. “Being an Emerald City Kid is like a part of the entire city.”

Blake, who recently moved to Troy from the Detroit, Mich., area, was on the set for eight days, which included full hair and makeup and was even on the set with the Hollywood movie stars during the filming.

The movie was made in a studio in Pontiac, Mich., which was a former General Motors plant. The GM plant also was the same place her grandmother once worked as a secretary for GM. Blake’s dance teacher was a choreographer for the movie, which stars James Franco as Oz, Michelle Williams as Glinda, Rachel Weisz as Evanora and Mila Kunis as Theodora.

Blake said she was a little star struck by one of her favorite actresses, Mila Kunis.

Two Troy residents were honored for their remarkable contributions to the Troy community at the 74th annual Troy Area Chamber of Commerce dinner Thursday at Troy Country Club. Master of ceremonies for the night was Andrew Wannemacher, 2013 chamber chairman Katie LINS Lins was named the Shirley Culp Davies Memorial Outstanding Young Woman, WESTMEYER while Ed Westmeyer was declared the A. Robert Davies MD Memorial Outstanding Young Man. Neither was aware that they were taking home the awards, which earned each a mantel clock.

“I’m surprised and honored,” Lins said after the ceremony. “It’s a wonderful thing to even be considered. Troy is such a wonderful place to live, work and volunteer.”

Her husband Doug had to keep mum about the award for several weeks.

“I’ve known for a while

“I love Mila,” she said.

“I got to see them when we were filming and see their trailers. I didn’t get to talk to any of them or ask for autographs.”

Blake’s role as an Emerald City Kid came about when she was one of only 10 children out of 40 who were called back to

film crowd scenes.

“My favorite part was getting to have the experience,” she said. “I loved being part of a really cool film.”

Blake said although she’s not sure when the next opportunity will come to be part of a movie, she appreciated the

process it takes to make a Hollywood film.

“You really got to understand what it takes to make a movie and how much hard work it takes,” she said. “We’d watch the playbacks and I’d watch and say, ‘That’s what I • See EXTRA on 2

“None of this is necessary,” said the president after a sterile White House meeting that portended a long standoff.

TIPP CITY

Tipp City may have a tough decision to make when it comes to the future of local schools: one big K-8 school building or separate elementary and middle schools.

The School Building Facilities Commission, tasked with devising a 5year facilities plan for the schools, met Thursday night and reviewed two different plans for future school construction.

“We don’t want you to just look at the buildings

and say, this roof needs replaced or this sidewalk’s cracked, we want an entire structural plan for the future of Tipp,” Mike Ruetschle said. Ruetschle Architects have been working with the commission on the facilities plan for more than a year.

Tipp City, number 425 on the state funding list, might be offered funding as early as next summer. The Ohio School Facilities Commission (OSFC) could provide the district with 30

percent funding for the project, which requires a facilities plan to go forward.

Both plans combine renovation and new construction, but in different configurations. Plan A would involve renovating and adding to LT Ball to create one large kindergarten through eighth-grade building. About 1,650 students would attend this school and children of different ages would be in separate wings.

Plan B would also add new space to LT Ball, resulting in a slightly

smaller K-5 building, and also renovate the middle school. This option is a more traditional model, with separate buildings for the elementary, middle and high school.

“This group and the board have very large decisions to make that could impact the community for generations and generations,” Ruetschle said.

Ruetschle asked the committee to write positives for each plan on sticky notes, stick them on the wall under a sign for Plan A or Plan B, and explain their reasoning.

Common themes soon began to emerge.

The more than 40 sticky notes underneath Plan A mentioned the efficiency of one school building with a centralized cafeteria, nurse’s office and other facilities. Some felt that one building would save money by being more energy efficient and requiring less staff. Another frequently mentioned positive was the opportunity for mentoring and tutoring between kids in different grade levels.

have to deal with the threat of a government shutdown while we’re dealing with the sequester at the same time,� he said, referring to the new cuts by their Washington-speak name.

Obama said he, too, wanted to keep the two issues separate.

Under the law, Obama had until midnight to formally order the cuts.

Barring a quick deal in the next week or so to call them off, the impact eventually is likely to be felt in all reaches of the country.

The Pentagon will absorb half of the $85 billion required to be sliced between now and the end of the budget year on Sept 30, exposing civilian workers to furloughs and defense contractors to possible cancellations. Said Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, only a few days on the job: “We will continue to ensure America’s security� despite the challenge posed by an “unnecessary budget crisis.�

The administration also has warned of long lines at airports as security personnel are furloughed, of teacher layoffs in some

classrooms and adverse impacts on maintenance at the nation’s parks.

The announcement by the housing agency in Seattle was an early indication of what is likely to hit as the cuts take effect.

It said it was taking the action “to cope with the impending reduction in federal funding,� adding that it normally issues 45 to 50 vouchers per month.

After days of dire warnings by administration officials, the president told reporters the effects of the cuts would be felt only gradually. “The longer these cuts remain in place, the greater the damage to our economy, a slow grind that will intensify with each passing day,� he said.

Much of the budget savings will come through unpaid furloughs for government workers, and those won’t begin taking effect until next month.

In addition, she is serving as the president of St. Patrick’s Home and School Association and as the St. Patrick’s Strawberry Festival fundraiser chair. She also has worked on a recruitment coalition between St. Patrick School, Piqua Catholic School and Lehman High School, while also volunteering at Brukner Nature Center.

Westmeyer said it was “a big surprise and a big honor� to receive the Outstanding Young Man designation. His mother even made a surprise visit for the occasion. “My wife knew and brought my mom up. She wasn’t supposed to be up until this weekend, so I was really surprised,� said Westmeyer, who has two children, Jesse, 12, and Hallie, 10, with wife Shannon.

Westmeyer’s background in community service is extensive,

including participation in United Way of Troy, CASA GAL and the school lunch buddy program at Kyle and Van Cleve elementary schools. He also has served on the Hayner Center board and volunteered for Troy Rotary’s coat program and adopta-road cleanup.

Other activities include coaching Troy Metro basketball and participating in Leadership Troy, the Home Builders Association of Miami County, Make a Difference Day in Troy and Accounting for Kids Day at Hook Elementary.

In other chamber news, Earl Reives was recognized for his work as 2012 board chairman and Corie Schweser was honored for her work as 2012 Troy Strawberry Festival chairwoman.

The night was sponsored by Frank Gates Avizent and Frank Gates Managed Care Services.

deficit-cutting deal that includes higher taxes.

Republicans said they wanted deficit cuts, too, but not tax increases. “The president got his tax hikes on Jan. 1,� House Speaker John Boehner told reporters, a reference to a $600 billion increase on higher wage earners that cleared Congress on the first day of the year. Now, he said after the meeting, it is time take on “the spending problem here in Washington.�

Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky was equally emphatic. � I will not be part of any back-room deal, and I will absolutely not agree to increase taxes,� he vowed in a written statement.

looked like when I was filming it?’�

Blake not only appears as an Emerald City Kid, but had to pose for digital scans of herself to appear as part of a large crowd scene. “I’m excited to see how that looks and to look for the ‘actual’ me in the scene,� she said. “I had to BLAKE pose in different positions and there are hundreds of people in the crowd scenes and like 10 of them are me.�

Blake said she appears at the end of the film and was not allowed to disclose which scene features her acting debut.

Blake and her mother, Kristen plan to go to see

the film along with family and friends on its premiere day on March 8. “I’m excited to look for me and seeing the show with my friends and show them the scenes I’m in,� she said.

Blake said it isn’t likely she’ll have a film credit, but said the experience was worth its weight in gold. “It was just something to do that not a lot of kids can say that they did,� she said. “It was such a cool experience and so different from anything else I’ve done.�

Blake said she is a fan of the original “Wizard of Oz� and the prequel of “Oz The Great and Powerful� makes her see the story in a whole different light.

Doug said, adding that he received a call in September saying she was nominated and then found out she was the winner in January.

Lins is the coowner/audiologist at Upper Valley Hearing and Balance and is a member of both the Ohio and the American Academy of Audiology, in addition to being a graduate of the 2010 Leadership Troy Class.

The couple have four children, Danny, 10, Mary, 9, Sarah, 7, and Tommy, 4.

When the children were young, Lins became involved in the Overfield Early Childhood program, participating on the board of trustees, the development committee, the endowment committee and the Ridge House Committee.

Schools ■CONTINUED FROM 1 “I like the idea of the cross grade level peer interaction, peer leadership opportunities that would be in a configuration of that nature,�

Assistant Superintendent Gretta Kumpf said.

One parent pointed out that Plan A could help to build a greater sense of community because everyone’s children would be attending one school.

On the other hand, many felt that the community would be more likely to support Plan B with its more traditional separate elementary and middle schools. Some thought that renovating LT Ball and the middle school would preserve some local history. “It retains the sentimental value of the old school for better community support,� School Board

President Frank Maus said.

Several at the meeting also mentioned student safety, saying that 1,600 students is a lot of children to evacuate in an emergency.

Some on the committee also said they liked the idea of separate schools because it would keep kids of different ages apart, but the schools still would be close enough for older students to tutor younger students. “I don’t like the idea of an eighth grader and a kindergartener going to the same school,� Maus said.

Both plans were nearly evenly matched in terms of sticky note pros and cons, with Plan A getting about 40 sticky notes and Plan B about 30. But an informal vote showed that more committee members were in favor of Plan A, includ-

ing Superintendent John Kronour and Assistant Superintendent Gretta Kumpf. School board member Frank Maus was in favor of the second option.

Eight committee members voted for Plan A, four voted for Plan B, and one parent was undecided.

Both plans will be presented to the board of education.

According to Ruetschle, there wouldn’t be much difference in price between Plan A and Plan B. While Plan A is mostly new construction and Plan B is mostly renovating existing buildings, there can be surprises in the renovation process that can drive the cost up.

Tipp City Schools could expect to receive funding next year because several other schools that were higher on the list failed to pass the necessary bond issues.

U.S. auto sales rise DETROIT (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Americans want new cars and trucks, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not letting higher gas prices or political dysfunction stand in their way.

New car and truck sales were up 4 percent in February as rising home construction and cheap financing kept the U.S. auto recovery on track. While the pace of growth is slowing, industry analysts expect more gains in the coming months, saying thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s little that could derail demand for new cars.

Car buyers have already shrugged off higher Social Security taxes, which cut their take-home pay starting in January. Gas prices which rose 36 cents to $3.78 per gallon in February didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t change their habits, either. And they ignored the debate over automatic spending cuts that were due to take effect Friday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Quite frankly, we think most of America is getting a little tired of hearing about

some of the dysfunction,â&#x20AC;? said Kurt McNeil, General Motors Co.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s U.S. sales chief. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We think the fundamentals are strong and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s driving the economy.â&#x20AC;?

February sales hit an annualized rate of 15.4 million cars and trucks. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still short of the recent peak of close to 17 million in 2005, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite healthy compared with the anemic 10.4 million recorded during the recession in 2009.

The industry isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t likely to see the double-digit monthly gains it saw last year, when Japanese automakers came roaring back after the 2011 earthquake in Japan. Instead, auto companies are settling in for a period of slower but sustained growth. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All of the automakers are in good, strong positions, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s harder to get those share gains,â&#x20AC;? said Lacey Plache, chief economist with the auto buying site Edmunds.com.

Donations needed to care for animals On Feb. 24, the Miami County Humane Society, with the assistance of the Miami County Sheriff ’s Office, executed a search warrant at 5275 State Route 201 in Bethel Township. The search warrant was for the seizure of all animals located on the property. The search warrant was the culmination of a six-month investigation spearheaded by the humane society involving animal neglect.

The Ohio Society for the Prevention of Animal Cruelty had contacted the Miami County Humane Society with an offer of assistance in placing the animals in foster homes.

Neither the Ohio SPCA, nor any other volunteer or foster homes for the animals, has legal custody of

MIAMI COUNTY the animals. They are being held under the authority of the Miami County Municipal Court until that time the court determines final disposition of the animals.

The Miami County Humane agent must be able to monitor and account for all of the animals, thus foster placement had to occur locally for the 23 equine, some of which were not in good condition. The humane agent is a non-paid position, so monitoring the animals out of the area would be both time consuming and costly.

For these reasons, foster placement was done locally as the humane society is the responsible party for

the animals under the authority of the court.

The investigation is ongoing and the humane society agent has been conferring daily with the Miami County Prosecutor’s Office and charges likely will be filed in the near future. The outpouring of assistance from the public has been in abundance and very much needed. The humane society still is in need of donations to care for the 23 equine.

Donations can be sent to the Miami County Humane Society, P.O. Box 789, Troy, OH 45373 or call (937) 2160070 for the care of the equine.

Donations to assist with the care of the non-equine animals can be sent to the Ohio SPCA, P.O. Box 546, Grove City, OH 43213.

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

ANALYSIS

Netanyahu gambit appears to backfire JERUSALEM (AP) — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s decision to bring a dovish rival into his Cabinet appears to be backfiring, drawing heavy criticism both in Israel and from the Palestinians and suddenly complicating the task of forming a viable coalition government, to the point where rivals are openly threatening to force new elections.

It is now uncertain whether Netanyahu will meet an initial deadline next week for forming a new coalition, and it is possible that he will fail altogether and the task will be assigned to a rival, most likely former TV anchorman Yair Lapid, a new political star who heads the centrist Yesh Atid party.

Rivals are also openly talking about the possibility of forcing new elections, just a month after a parliamentary election ended in virtual deadlock.

Polls Friday suggested that if repeat elections were held, Lapid, an amateur boxer, novelist and former actor who has never held public office, might be elected prime minister.

Netanyahu has been scrambling to build a majority coalition in parliament since the Jan. 22 election. As leader of the largest faction in parliament, Likud-Yisrael Beitenu, he has been charged with the responsibility for forming a new government. But with just 31 seats under his control, he is far short of the 61-seat majority, out of a total of 120 seats in parliament, needed for a coalition.

The array of rightist and religious parties considered Netanyahu’s natural allies did eke out 61 seats in the Jan. 22 election but that informal alliance has long been strained over a host of internal disagreements and it is showing signs of collapse. That has forced Netanyahu to look elsewhere, outside of his political comfort zone.

This week, the hawkish leader seemed to find an unlikely new ally, announcing his first coalition deal with former Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni, appointing her justice minister and chief negotiator with the Palestinians.

The appointment was meant to signal that Netanyahu, who has come under heavy criticism internationally for the past four years of deadlock in Mideast peace efforts, is preparing to take a softer line toward the Palestinians in his new term. Livni is a former peace negotiator who has a good relationship with the Palestinian leadership and who is well respected internationally. The alliance also was meant to pressure other potential coalition partners to join him.

So far, Netanyahu’s gambit appears to be missing out on both counts. The appointment is generating little excitement, and Livni, who campaigned on a platform almost exclusively pushing for peace with the Palestinians, has been accused of selling out to the hardline Netanyahu.

Livni’s new political party, “The Movement,” won just six parliamentary seats in last month’s election. Critics said that after spending the past four years lambasting Netanyahu’s policies, Livni appears desperate.

“Tzipi Livni is no less trustworthy or cynical than other politicians who broke their word, bent over backwards, put away their slogans and election speeches and galloped into the arms of the one they had described as the mother of all sin,” wrote commentator Yossi Verter in Haaretz newspaper.

Livni has said she thinks being inside the government gives her the best chance to influence policy.

The Palestinians, meanwhile, have accused Livni of becoming a “fig leaf” for Netanyahu.

Officials said that unless he changes his policies, particularly continued settlement construction in the West Bank and east Jerusalem, there is no hope for progress.

LETTERS The Kingston (N.Y.) Daily Freeman on presidential power and the use of drones to kill U.S. citizens overseas: The nomination of John Brennan has touched off a kind of frenzy of sudden urgency that is typical of the U.S. Congress.

Brennan, who is President Barack Obama’s pick to head the Central Intelligence Agency, has been the president’s top adviser on counterterrorism.

Brennan, therefore, has been a central player in the targeting of al-Qaeda members for assassination, primarily by guided missile as launched by drones flying over foreign nations.

Since several members of alQaeda were U.S. citizens, this means that Brennan played a role in the executive branch’s killing of them without arrest,

trial and due process as it is commonly understood in civil society under the Constitution.

Suddenly, therefore, the Congress is all atwitter over the constitutional implications of the president of the United States authorizing the killing of U.S. citizens.

We appreciate the sentiment.

But we think Congress is a little late to the game. This issue has been hiding in plain view for years.

According to a legal memo drafted by the Justice Department, the administration contends that “an informed, high-level official” of the United States may kill any combatant who is deemed to pose “an imminent threat of violent attack against the United States” if capture is impractica-

ble. …

Who, but a fool, would give al-Qaeda the cover of and incentive for recruiting U.S. citizens, vested with some degree of judicial protection — delay or otherwise — from drone strikes, to form planning groups abroad for attacks against the United States?

The critics of executive prosecution of targeted assassinations should present a single instance in recorded history when warfare has been successfully prosecuted from the judicial bench.

Yes, this is an awful power.

We would democratize it if we could, but we cannot and still secure our defense. This is why the Founders granted the execution of war to the executive alone.

DOONESBURY

Lew knows a thing or two about getting paid Some guys have it, and some don't. I'm referring to that special quality that makes powerful institutions want to throw fistfuls of dollars at them in senseless acts of high-priced beneficence.

Jack Lew has it like nobody's business. You might think the bespectacled treasury secretary nominee is just another brainy budget wonk and miss the animal magnetism that makes his employers lose all sense of financial proportion around him, paying him astronomical sums, forgiving his loans and granting him generous golden parachutes.

Yes, Jack Lew is a rare talent — at the art of getting paid.

He left the Clinton administration, where he served as director of the Office of Management and Budget, for what turned out to be the extremely lucrative field of nonprofit education. At New York University, he made more than $800,000 in 2002. According to his W-2, examined by staff on Capitol Hill, he made $1.2 million in total compensation in 2006.

Lest you discount these figures as a reflection of the racket that is higher education rather than of an indication of Jack Lew's knack for getting paid, consider that

Rich Lowry Troy Daily News Columnist Lew made more than the president of the university, John Sexton. One imagines a sheepish Sexton asking the school's board why he was making less than the university's executive vice president for operations and getting back the pained explanation, "Surely, John, you must understand ... it's because he's Jack Lew." Even for Jack Lew, housing in New York City can be expensive.

Not to worry. New York University provided him a loan for housing. The universally recognized trouble with loans is that they have to be paid back. Not to worry. All is forgiven if you are Jack Lew, especially your loans.

According to Lew, the university forgave the loan of some $1.4 mil-

lion "in equal installments over five years."

Upon leaving NYU, Lew received what he describes as "a one-time severance payment upon my departure." He wasn't fired, usually the occasion for severances. He simply left and got paid for the act of leaving. Hey, that's Jack Lew — he gets paid when he stays and gets paid when he goes.

He went to Citigroup, which NYU had made its primary private lender for student loans in exchange for a cut of those loans.

(Coincidences happen to everyone, including Jack Lew.) At Citi, Lew established beyond a doubt his expertise at getting paid. In 2008, as the bank nearly blew up and laid off one-seventh of its employees, Lew ran its disastrous Alternative Investments unit — and got paid $1.1 million.

The bank had to be bailed out by the federal government, but it couldn't stop paying Jack Lew. The journalist Jonathan Weil of Bloomberg has unearthed Lew's contract at Citi. It said, reasonably enough, that he wouldn't get his "guaranteed incentive and retention award" if he left the company. It made an exception, though, if Lew left to get "a full-

time high level position with the United States government or regulatory body."

Jack Lew being Jack Lew, he didn't leave Citi for a midlevel government position, or a lowlevel government position, or even a part-time high-level government position. No, he landed the aforementioned full-time high-level position. He became deputy secretary of state, on his way to resuming his duties at OMB, then becoming the chief of staff to the president, and now secretary of the treasury. And, of course, he got paid.

The cynics talk of crony capitalism. The scoffers hint of special favors for the politically connected. The good-government types worry about the unseemliness of a too-big-to-fail Wall Street bank giving one of its executives an incentive to become a high-ranking government official. Maybe they should give it a rest and simply stand back and marvel at the moneymaking machine that is Jack Lew. Lesser mortals criticize and cavil. He gets paid.

OBITUARIES

Canann Berry wrestles at sectionals for Milton-Union High School.

Teen pairs sport, faith Wrestler will travel to Mongolia with AIA

On Saturdays during the wrestling season, Canaan Berry can be found either at a wrestling tournament or Young Spirits practice.

“Those who know me know that I work hard to be the best wrestler that I can be,” Berry said. “Two of the most important things in my life have been wrestling and my faith. However, I also work hard at being the best person that I can be and, because of these efforts, I have been presented with a tremendous opportunity.”

A sophomore at MiltonUnion High School, Berry has the chance to combine two of his loves by competing on a wrestling team sponsored by Athletes in Action (AIA), the athletic ministry of Campus Crusade for Christ. AIA is a faithbased organization that uses athletes to evangelize the gospel of Jesus Christ. Although the organization reaches worldwide, AIA’s world training and resource center is based out of Xenia.

The team will compete in Mongolia, a landlocked country in East and Central Asia that borders Russia and China. There they will work with the AIA/CCC incountry staff to help build relationships with athletes, fans, coaches and officials in order to accelerate their ministries by sharing the life-changing message of Christ through personal conversations and group presentations.

“I look forward to this test of my faith and I am excited to see how God will use this experience to advance His kingdom through the work He will do in my life,” Berry said.

His personal goals for

WEST MILTON “I feel like this is my calling; the thing I am supposed to do.”

— Canaan Berry the summer include deepening his spiritual relationship with Christ, learning how to share his faith more effectively, developing leadership skills, and leading people to their own personal relationship with Christ.

These goals are shared by AIA staff.

“When I get to heaven, I hope to have a Mongolian with cauliflower ear thank me for sharing the message of Christ with them,” AIA wrestling director Rob Bronson said.

Bronson met Berry through Carr Wrestling Club in Tipp City, which is owned and operated by Coach Nate Carr, an Olympian and minister.

Carr put Berry in touch with Bronson after noticing the T-shirt Berry was wearing, which simply said “Bible Smuggler.”

Berry got the shirt last summer while on a twoweek mission trip with his grandfather in China, where he spread the message of Christianity and passed out bibles.

Berry applied to AIA and after making a great impression on Bronson, his drill partner at Carr’s, he was accepted. To prepare for the trip, Berry will be studying freestyle wrestling. He also will be in contact with Steve Barrett, a former U.S. national champion now living in Mongolia, who will be his AIA in-country contact.

Some may say it is no small coincidence that Berry began wrestling in the fourth grade, which puts him in his seventh year, and accepted Christ

as his savior at the age of 9 as well. He has remained dedicated and focused on both, which is why his father Kevin believes that Canaan has the full backing of his family and friends for this important step in his life.

“This is a great opportunity for him to help him develop his testimony and discover just exactly who he is,” Kevin said.

This trip will require a great investment of Berry’s time and energy. But the team is made up of more than just the wrestlers and coaches traveling. They are looking for interested individuals who are willing to invest in their ministry, and thereby become part of the team as they travel, compete and minister to others.

Each member of the team is asked to raise $3,900 — a portion of the team’s goal — which will cover food, lodging, travel and other team expenses.

All funds must be raised by May 15 in order for the team to report to training camp.

Financial support can be given online at http://give.cru.org by entering Berry’s account number 0698053 in the “Give” box.

Checks also can be sent, payable to Athletes in Action or Campus Crusade, and sent to 511 S. Miami St., West Milton, OH 45383.

Do not write Berry’s name in the “make payable” or “memo line” of the check per Internal Revenus Service and National Collegiate Athletic Association guidelines. Donations can be made as a one-time gift, or a monthly gift if preferred.

Contributors will receive a receipt for this taxdeductible donation.

Berry also is willing to talk to any church and/or organization regarding his experience once he returns.

‘One Day at a Time’ star dies NEW YORK (AP) — Bonnie Franklin, the pert, redheaded actress whom millions came to identify with for her role as divorced mom Ann Romano on the long-running sitcom “One Day at a Time,” has died.

She died Friday at her home in Los Angeles due to complications from pancreatic cancer, family members said. She was 69. Her family had announced she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in September.

Franklin was a veteran stage and television performer before “One Day At a Time” made her a star.

Developed by Norman Lear and co-created by Whitney Blake herself a former sitcom star and single mother raising future actress Meredith Baxter the series was groundbreaking for its focus on a young divorced mother seeking independence from a suffocating marriage.

It premiered on CBS in December 1975, just five years after the network had balked at having Mary Tyler Moore play a divorced woman on her own comedy series, insisting that newly single Mary Richards be portrayed as having ended her engagement instead.

Tilton of Piqua; brothers, Dean Tamplin of Piqua and Robert Tamplin of Lakeview; and her dog, Sammy.

She was preceded in death by her husband; two greatgrandchildren; two greatgreat-grandchildren; sisters, Josephine Kiser and Shirley Ferman; and brothers, Marvin Tamplin, Darel Tamplin and Harold Tamplin.

Funeral services for Evelyn were held Wednesday, Feb. 27, at the Valley View Funeral Home, 4335 West 4100 South. Interment was in Valley View Memorial Park.

Franklin, the pert, redheaded actress whom millions came to identify with for her role as divorced mom Ann Romano on the long-running sitcom, died Friday at her home due to complications from pancreatic cancer, family members said. She was 69.

On her own in Indianapolis, Ann Romano was raising two teenage girls played by Mackenzie Phillips, already famous for the film “American Graffiti,” and a previously unknown Valerie Bertinelli. “One Day At a Time” ran on CBS until 1984, by which time both daughters had grown and married, while Romano had

remarried and become a grandmother. During the first seven of its nine seasons on the air, the show was a Top 20 hit. ”One Day at a Time” dealt with contemporary issues once absent from TV comedies such as premarital sex, birth control, suicide and sexual harassment issues.

Vatican takes first steps running pope-less church VATICAN CITY (AP) — The Vatican took the first steps of governing a Catholic Church without a pope on Friday, making some ceremonial and practical moves to formalize the end of one pontificate and prepare for the conclave to start the next.

Benedict XVI’s 8 p.m. resignation Thursday opened what is known as the “sede vacante” or “vacant see” the transition period between papacies when a few key Vatican officials take charge of running the church.

The dean of the College of Cardinals formally summoned his fellow “princes” of the church to Rome for an initial pre-conclave meeting on Monday something of a formality given that many of them are already here. But in a letter Friday, Cardinal Angelo Sodano also made clear that the conclave date won’t be set until they have all arrived, meaning it may still be some time before a date is settled on.

Separately, the deputy to the camerlengo who administers the Vatican during the transition took symbolic possession of one of the papal basilicas in Rome. For obvious reasons, the camerlengo will not take possession of the main

People walk past a poster of Pope Benedict XVI reading: “You will always remain with us. Thank you,” in Rome, Friday, March 13. The Vatican took the first steps of governing a Catholic Church without a Pope on Friday, making some ceremonial and practical moves to formalize the end of one pontificate and prepare for the conclave to start the next. papal residence outside Rome, Castel Gandolfo, because that is Benedict’s current retirement home.

Here are the top figures who will run the church in the coming days: • THE CAMERLENGO: Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone.

The camerlengo, or chamberlain, takes over the day-to-day running the Holy See as soon as the papacy ends. He places the seal on the pope’s study and bed-

room, and takes possession of the Apostolic Palace, “safeguarding and administering the goods and temporal rights of the Holy See” until a new pope is elected.

On Thursday night, Bertone sealed the papal apartment, which will not be reopened until a new pope is elected.

Benedict in 2007 gave the camerlengo job to Bertone, 78, a natural choice, given that Bertone is currently the Vatican No. 2 as secretary of state and

runs the Vatican bureaucracy anyway. A priest of the Salesian order, Bertone was trained as a canon lawyer and taught in various Roman universities for several years before coming to work for the former Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger at the Vatican’s doctrine office in 1995.

As secretary of state, Bertone has had Benedict’s unwavering trust, but his legacy has been mixed.

• THE DEAN OF THE

COLLEGE OF CARDINALS: Cardinal Angelo Sodano.

The dean is the senior member of the College of Cardinals, the so-called “princes” of the church whose main task is to elect a pope. The dean oversees the pre-conclave meetings, at which the problems of the church are discussed, and has duties inside the conclave itself, including asking the newly elected pontiff if he accepts the job. But Sodano is 85 and cannot vote, so some of those duties will shift to the sub-dean.

Burly and sociable, the Italian Sodano was Pope John Paul II’s longtime secretary of state. As dean, he spoke on behalf of all the cardinals in giving a final farewell to Benedict on Thursday, thanking him for his “selfless service.”

Still, Sodano and Benedict were known to have clashed when Benedict was Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, particularly over the scandal-plagued Legion of Christ religious order.

• THE MASTER OF CERELITURGICAL MONIES: Monsignor Guido Marini.

The master of liturgical ceremonies runs the religious side of the conclave and the installation Mass for the new pope, all of

them carefully choreographed rituals. He is by the side of the dean when the newly elected pope is asked if he accepts the election. And as the main witness and notary, he draws up the formal document certifying the new pope’s name and that he has accepted the job.

Benedict appointed Marini to the job in 2007, replacing Monsignor Piero Marini who for two decades was Pope John Paul II’s right-hand man for all things liturgical. The shift was intentional. Under Guido Marini, papal Masses became far more reverent, with more Latin, • THE PROTO-DEACON: Cardinal JeanLouis Tauran.

The proto-deacon’s main task is to announce to the world that a pope has been elected.

He shouts “Habemus Papam!” (“We have a pope!”) from the balcony overlooking St. Peter’s Square after the white smoke has snaked up from the Sistine Chapel chimney. He then introduces the new pope in Latin along with the name the pope has chosen.

The French-born Tauran is a veteran Vatican diplomat who served in the Dominican Republic and Lebanon.

‘Amen’: Neighborhood Prayer Box takes requests ASCASSAS, Tenn. (AP) — Slowing down in order to turn, a car pulls into the driveway of Lascassas Church of Christ, then stops next to a blue and white container that resembles a mailbox.

On the driveway side, a flip-top plastic box houses slips of paper that can be used to write down requests for the Neighborhood Prayer Box. On one side of the box, an inscription reads: “Prayers can change things … We’re praying for you.” On another side, the sign reads: “Need prayers. Let us pray for you. PRAYER WORKS.” “We want people to know Lascassas Church of Christ believes in prayer and we look forward to praying for the people in this community,” says T.J. Wakefield, a longtime member and elder at the church.

All a person has to do is drive up, fill out a card and drop it in the box. When notes are collected several times a week, Wakefield promises somebody will be praying. The idea for the prayer box stems from a study on prayer Wakefield read some 20 years ago.

“My idea was to make something fancy out of wood,” Upchurch says. “But because it was going to be outside, I figured I needed to make it (to withstand) the elements,” Upchurch says.

He decided to work with PVC, which is often used in plastic outdoor furniture and plumbing pipes. Instead of plywood, he used slabs of PVC board as the housing for the box.

“As far as using this material, it was really out of my range (of expertise). But it’s very, very easy to work with,” Upchurch says.

Another member, Rex Rudd, installed the box.

So far, they have received quite a few prayer requests. Some have remained anonymous while others have signed their names. But West says the church leaders made a decision not to mention anyone’s name, even if they share it.

“I want people to feel comfortable enough to drop (a request) in the box,” West says. “(We announce) just enough so people know what they are praying about, but we don’t have to know who it is.”

percent rate of improvement, while the other group showed little to no change, Wakefield explains.

“That just always stuck with me.”

For a while, the church has had an extended prayer list online. At other times, a sort of “power praying” with a group of members has been done. Wakefield recalls a

time when members prayed for a little girl with a brain tumor. “We spent many, many nights in prayer for her, and we prayed boldly,” Wakefield says.

The little girl not only survived, she is thriving, he adds.

Frequently during worship times, the entire service is dedicated to praying for those on the list.

“We’ll just go through it, section by section,” says David West, minister at Lascassas Church of Christ.

With such an emphasis put on prayer, Wakefield thought about ways the church could reach into the community to pray for people.

He decided to approach other church members about how to best implement a prayer system in the community. So they came up with the idea for a neighborhood prayer box.

Member Sean Tussy came up with the prayer box design. Wayne Upchurch took on the task of transforming that design into reality. A carpenter by trade, Upchurch says he first thought about how he could best utilize his talents in woodworking.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

You don’t have to sit there in silence Dear Annie: I am 60 years old and have a cousin the same age.

"Kevin's" conversations are sexist, racist, immature and extremely self-centered. He mocks people who recycle and told me helping others is "a waste of time." His takes on current events and politics sound like drunken barroom rants. I find myself walking away from him shell-shocked.

I know we are supposed to keep away from toxic people, but Kevin and I had many wonderful adventures together when we were young. We still have our past memories and a few subjects in common. But I'm afraid he is taking my silence during these rants for tacit approval. Does he need to be challenged? Am I being idealistic to think he might change, or should I just try to keep my distance? — Florida Cousin Dear Florida: Kevin may never change his narrow-minded views, but that doesn't mean you have to sit in silence. If you don't want to cut him out of your life, understand that he is going to say things that bother you, and it's perfectly fine to tell him so. It doesn't require confrontation.

Simply say, "Kevin, I strongly disagree with you and don't wish to discuss it further," and then change the subject. If he persists, you have the option of ending the conversation altogether. In time, either Kevin will understand which subjects are off-limits, or you will be spending a lot less time in his company.

Dear Annie: I am the youngest of seven children and the only one who didn't marry young. I am also the only one who attended college. I am graduating in May and mentioned to my parents that I hoped to have a small graduation party with family and close friends. One friend already offered to make my cake.

You can imagine my disappointment when my parents said it was silly to have a graduation party, and they'd rather spend money on a wedding whenever I get married. Annie, I wasn't asking them to spend money. I just wanted to use the hospitality of their home because my college apartment is a few hours away.

I've worked hard for my degree, and I'm hurt by their lack of excitement. I want to share my happiness. I don't need gifts.

Would it be against etiquette to throw myself a party? — Puzzled Dear Puzzled: It is OK to give yourself a party, but please don't mention your graduation until after your guests arrive. You don't want to give the impression of, "I'm so fantastic and accomplished -- bring presents." Simply say you want to have a party. You can then tell them during the event that you are celebrating your degree. Another option is to get together with your classmates and have a group celebration, whereby you are essentially giving a graduation party for one another.

Dear Annie: I read the letter from "Sickened on the East Coast," the mom whose 8th-grade child came home with a questionable summer reading list.

As a teacher and a parent, I know that schools are as respectful as the people in charge.

Reading specialists are highly trained professionals who choose books that will help children understand that there are many challenging parts of life that are not pretty. But the responsibility of what children read in their free time still belongs to parents.

Without banning books, "Sickened" can help her child choose material that builds character. Online, she can narrow her search for books that promote specific traits, such as gratitude, honesty, generosity and courage.

"Sickened" also could do a web search on "character education," where she will find numerous books written by authors who feel the same way she does. — A Parent First Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

SUDOKU PUZZLE

HOW TO PLAY: Complete the grid so that every row, column and 3x3 box contains every digit from 1 to 9 inclusively. Find answers to today’s puzzle in tomorrow’s Troy Daily News.

YESTERDAY’S SOLUTION:

HINTS FROM HELOISE

Tip helps sound the horn on drawer safety Dear Heloise: My husband stumbled on a great way to keep our 13-month-old grandson from getting into the kitchen drawers without having to install drawer safety latches. He purchased 24inch extra-long shoehorns. They were inexpensive and plastic.

He slid the shoehorn with the hook so that it grabs the drawer handle on the first drawer and slides down through the rest of them.

Depending on the number of drawers in a set we want to secure, he cuts the shoehorn to the desired length. I usually make sure the bottom drawers are safe ones so my grandson can get into them — his favorite

Hints from Heloise Columnist place to play.

Small downside: His little hands can sneak in on the sides, but he can’t really get into the drawer. — Lynda H., Boerne, Texas Lynda, this is an inexpensive solution, but it’s wise to invest in the right safety locks. You don’t want to take a chance that

a little one could get into trouble. — Heloise PET PAL Dear Readers: J.P. McGiffin of Bedford, N.H., sent a photo of her cat, Armani. She says this handsome boy knows how to keep warm or cool because he always wears his gray suit. To see Armani in his suit, visit www.Heloise.com and click on “Pets.”

— Heloise HEALTHIER MASHED POTATOES Dear Heloise: To make mashed potatoes a bit healthier, use half potatoes and half cabbage.

Cut the cabbage into chunks

and cook it with the potatoes until soft, drain well and mash or whip, adding whatever you normally add (like butter, cream, salt and pepper).

My son discovered this one day when he didn’t have enough potatoes on hand.

He remembered how much he used to like the combination of cabbage and potatoes when I boiled them with corned beef, so he thought he’d try them mashed together. It worked! You wouldn’t think so, but the cabbage flavor blended right in.

Try it, Heloise. I like it even better than plain mashed potatoes. — Laverne Wiles, via email

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE For Sunday, March 3, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is a loosey-goosey day, and although you might want to discuss shared property, inheritances and such, don’t do it. Nothing will come of it. Just coast.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) This can be a playful day dealing with friends and partners if you keep matters light. Avoid important discussions, and certainly avoid important decisions or making promises to others.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Shortages, delays and minor mistakes on the job are likely today. This could be frustrating. On the other hand, it’s easy to think outside-the-box.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) This is an extremely creative day for artists or anyone involved in a creative project — the theater, screenwriting, arts and crafts, writing or working with children. Enjoy your day.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You’ll enjoy puttering around your home today. Do whatever makes you feel like you’re getting better organized, but really, you’re just marking time. It’s one of those days. Relax.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Conversations with others will be all over the map today, and they might be fun. Just remember that anything said today is not to be taken seriously until tomorrow.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Be very careful with your finances today. This is a poor day for making major expenditures or shopping for anything other than food. In addition, avoid important decisions.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) You feel like a helium balloon floating freely today, which is why you’re not quite sure what to do. No worries. Just go with the flow, but avoid major expenditures or important decisions.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Quiet time in contemplation or solitary work will please you today. Don’t expect too much of yourself or others.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) A discussion with a female might be unusually frank and candid. People are inclined to let their guard down today. Listen with care.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Guard against making some goofy mistakes that other people (especially bosses and VIPs) will be aware of. Nobody wants bad press, even you.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) You have strong feelings of wanting to escape from all this today. That’s OK. Do something different. Be a tourist in your own city. But don’t spend money on anything other than food. However, you might learn something quite fascinating.

YOU BORN TODAY You are a visionary and can easily imagine what it is that you want to achieve because you are both imaginative and practical.

You’re very private, but you like to lend your efforts to social causes that make the world a better place. You’re a great planner and are very involved in whatever you do. In the year ahead, an important choice will arise. Choose wisely.

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Saturday, March 2, the 61st day of 2013.

There are 304 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight: On March 2, 1943, the threeday Battle of the Bismarck Sea began in the southwest Pacific during World War II U.S. and Australian warplanes were able to inflict heavy damage on an Imperial Japanese convoy.

On this date: In 1836, the Republic of Texas formally declared its inde-

pendence from Mexico.

In 1861, the state of Texas, having seceded from the Union, was admitted to the Confederacy.

In 1917, Puerto Ricans were granted U.S. citizenship as President Woodrow Wilson signed the Jones-Shafroth Act. In 1942, the original Stage Door Canteen, a wartime club for U.S. servicemen, officially opened its doors in New York’s Broadway theater district.

In 1962, Wilt Chamberlain scored 100 points for the

Philadelphia Warriors in a game against the New York Knicks, an NBA record that still stands.

(Philadelphia won, 169-147.)

In 1972, the United States launched the Pioneer 10 space probe, which flew past Jupiter in late 1973, sending back images and scientific data.

In 1989, representatives from the 12 European Community nations agreed to ban all production of CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) by the end of the 20th century.

Ohio village devastated by tornado looks ahead MOSCOW (AP) — This tiny Ohio River village will mark the anniversary of the devastating tornado that roared through a year ago, damaging nearly everything in sight and killing one person, with a community gathering today.

Village administrator Sandra Ashba said residents will share a pot-luck dinner and tales of survival from the storm, take stock of recovery efforts, and start focusing on the future.

“We’ve been so busy,” Ashba said. “We’ve been struggling for a year to try to rebuild. We want people to get together and tell their stories.”

The tornado on March 2, 2012, ravaged Moscow with winds of up to 160 mph after it swept across the river from Kentucky, part of a severe storm system spawning twisters that killed more than 40 people in Kentucky, Indiana and Ohio and caused hundreds of millions of dollars in damage. This riverfront village about 30 miles east of Cincinnati, less than half a square mile in size, was left with buildings whose roofs were ripped off, power lines and hundreds of trees down or shredded, glass from smashed windows blanket-

Sinkhole that swallowed Florida man is ‘unstable’ SEFFNER, Fla. (AP) In a matter of seconds, the earth opened under Jeff Bush’s bedroom and swallowed him up like something out of a horror movie.

About the only thing left was the TV cable running down into the hole.

Bush, 37, was presumed dead Friday, the victim of a sinkhole a hazard so common in Florida that state law requires home insurers to provide coverage against the danger.

The sinkhole, estimated at 20 feet across and 20 feet deep, caused the home’s concrete floor to

cave in around 11 p.m.

Thursday as everyone in the Tampa-area house was turning in for the night. It gave way with a loud crash that sounded like a car hitting the house and brought Bush’s brother running.

Jeremy Bush said he jumped into the hole but couldn’t see his brother and had to be rescued himself by a sheriff’s deputy who reached out and pulled him to safety as the ground crumbled around him.

“The floor was still giving in and the dirt was still going down, but I didn’t care. I wanted to save my

brother,” Jeremy Bush said through tears Friday in a neighbor’s yard. “But I just couldn’t do nothing.”

He added: “I could swear I heard him hollering my name to help him.”

Officials lowered equipment into the sinkhole and saw no signs of life, said Hillsborough County Fire Rescue spokeswoman Jessica Damico.

A dresser and the TV set had vanished down the hole, along with most of Bush’s bed.

“All I could see was the cable wire running from the TV going down into the

hole. I saw a corner of the bed and a corner of the box spring and the frame of the bed,” Jeremy Bush said.

At a news conference Friday night, county administrator Mike Merrill described the home as “seriously unstable.” He said no one can go in the home because officials were afraid of another collapse and losing more lives.

The soil around the home was very soft and the sinkhole was expected to grow.

Engineers said they may have to demolish the small, sky-blue house, even though from the outside

there appeared to be nothing wrong with the fourbedroom, concrete-wall structure, built in 1974.

“I cannot tell you why it has not collapsed yet,” said Bill Bracken, the owner of engineering company called on to assess the sinkhole and home.

Engineers said there was an initial collapse followed by another one a short time later. The hole was 15 feet deep but grew to about 25 feet deep, and it was about 20 feet to 30 feet across.

Florida is highly prone to sinkholes because there

are caverns below ground of limestone, a porous rock that easily dissolves in water. A sinkhole near Orlando grew to 400 feet across in 1981 and devoured five sports cars, most of two businesses, a three-bedroom house and the deep end of an Olympic-size swimming pool.

More than 500 sinkholes have been reported in Hillsborough County alone since the government started keeping track in 1954, according to the state’s environmental agency.

Troy Christian’s Grant Zawadzki drives for a layup Friday night during the Division IV sectional championship game against Yellow Springs at the Trojan Activities Center.

Zawadzki was one of two Eagles with doubledoubles in the 69-40 victory — Troy Christian’s first-ever sectional title

Living the dream Eagles win first sectional title

BY JOSH BROWN Sports Editor jbrown@civitasmedia.com Troy Christian sophomore Grant Zawadzki dreamed of it since he was a kid.

Senior Christian Salazar knows the work it takes to make dreams come true.

Friday night, the Eagles put it all together into one championship effort.

Christian Salazar and Grant Zawadzki each had double-doubles, Holden Varvel added another 15 points and the second-seeded Troy Christian Eagles defeated Yellow Springs for the third time this season, this time 69-40 in the Division IV sectional

TROY championship game Friday at the Trojan Activities Center.

“When I was three or four years old, I was a ballboy for my grandpa’s teams playing at UD Arena,” said Zawadzki, who had 15 points and 10 assists. “I said then that I wanted to get here and play here. To accomplish that, it feels great. It’s a dream come true.”

That dream will come true Tuesday night when the Eagles face Fort Loramie, a 49-38 winner over Botkins on Friday.

It was the first sectional title for Troy Christian boys basket-

A year ago at the Division III state tournament, Garrett Hancock (120) was the odd man out for Troy Christian.

Teammates B.J. Toal (182), Jordan Marshall (152) and Jarred Ganger (113) all wrestled in the championship finals, while Hancock had to settle for fifth place.

Hancock is not planning on settling for anything but a firstplace finish this time around.

On Day 2 of the state wrestling tournament Friday at the Schottenstein Center in

“I was the only one coming Saturday morning last year,” Hancock said. “Everyone else got to come Saturday night.

Versailles defense smothers Bethel

BY ROB KISER Civitas Media rkiser@tdnpublishing.com

Drama overshadows all at Honda Classic Rory McIlroy left before his round was even over. Tiger Woods had to rally just to stick around.

And with all that drama Friday in the Honda Classic, hardly anyone noticed that Luke Guthrie showed off his potential in a big way with a 7-under 63 to take a oneshot lead going into the weekend at PGA National.

See Page 16.

As impressive as Versailles was at the offensive end, the Tigers boys basketball team was even stronger on defense.

And the end result was an 8134 Versailles victory over Bethel in a Division III sectional final.

No. 2 Versailles will now play No. 4 Stivers — which upset No. 1 seed Fenwick 56-50 in the late game — at 7 p.m. Thursday at UD Arena in the district final.

The Tigers (20-5) smothered a powerful Bees offense all night.

DAYTON Seventh-seeded Bethel (16-7) went the first seven minutes without a field goal before an Andrew Hurst shot got them within 15-5 — and that would continue to be the story all night as the Bees made only nine field goals in the game.

With Kyle Ahrens scoring 11 points before the break and Nick Campbell scoing eight, Versailles opened a 29-11 lead late in the first half.

Bethel countered with the final four points of the half to make it 29-15 and came out hoping for a fast start in the second

half.

But Versailles quickly erased any doubt.

Chad Winner, Ahrens and Evan Phlipot scored six quick points to erase any doubt — and Ahrens added four more to make it 39-15 with 5:43 to go in the third quarter.

Ahrens led Versailles with 23 points, while Damian Richard added 14 points and eight rebounds.

Jacob Wenning came off the bench to have an amazing second half for the Tigers. He was 6 for 6 from the floor, including one 3-pointer, and 2 for 3 from the line for 15 points.

Patrick Bain scored 10 points in the second half to lead the Bees with 12 points and six rebounds. He was also a perfect 10 for 10 from the free throw line.

Gus Schwieterman added 11 points and eight rebounds.

Versailles was 33 of 57 from the floor for 58 percent and 10 of 15 from the line for 67 percent.

Bethel was just nine of 46 from the floor for 20 percent and 16 of 24 from the line for 67 percent.

Versailles won the battle of the boards 35-25 and had 11

■ CONTINUED FROM 14 ball in school history — and even though the score doesn’t indicate it, the Bulldogs didn’t make it easy.

“We know that sectional titles at Troy Christian are few and far between, with this being the first one in history,” Troy school Christian coach Ray Zawadzki said. “We know how hard it is to achieve what we just did.”

Salazar can back that up.

“We (the seniors) were here our freshman year when the varsity team went through a 4-16 season,” he said. “We knew it’d take some building up. But we kept working and working as hard as we could, and it finally paid off.”

Salazar — who only had three points in the first half, including missing an alleyoop dunk on a fast break — finished with 12 points and 10 rebounds. And given a second chance at jamming one home, he didn’t miss as Zawadzki stole the ball and passed it up to him all alone on the break for a one-handed throwdown.

“No, I wasn’t thinking about it (the miss),” Salazar said. “There was no way it wasn’t going down. We’ve all had halves like that (the first half), so I cleared my head and decided the ball was going in the hole.”

The Eagles (23-2) beat the Bulldogs (15-10) 67-47 in the second game of the season at Yellow Springs, but the Bulldogs bounced back and competed the next time around, falling in overtime 61-56.

“Hats off to them. They’re the No. 2 seed for a reason,” Newsome said.

“Congratulations to them.

Each game provides something different. We made some adjustments before the last game, and they obviously made some adjustments before tonight. But that’s high school basketball.

“As bad as we feel about tonight, I can go home and look in the newspaper about Alter beating (No. 1 in the state in D-II) Thurgood Marshall. That’s just how it goes in high school basketball.”

After Troy Christian built a 13-point first quarter lead with an 11-0 run, the Bulldogs fought back on the strength of Welsey Moultrie and Roland Newsome. A Newsome 3 and a free throw, also by Newsome, closed the gap to 26-20 halfway through the second quarter, and the Bulldogs had a num-

ber of possessions to cut it even further — but simply couldn’t.

“We had too many possessions where they didn’t score, and then we’d come down and not score ourselves. They get a couple of leak-outs, a couple of buckets and it’s 2820, 30-20 and so on.”

The Eagles closed the first half on a 14-1 run taking a 39-21 lead, and the Bulldogs never got closer than 16.

And Zawadzki punctuated that run with a dagger of a buzzer-beating 3, dribbling around two defenders to get clear, pulling up and burying it as he fell sideways.

“I couldn’t even see it,” Zawadzki said. “I was on the ground and there was people in front of me. I just heard the crowd get really loud, and I knew it’d gone in.”

And to end the third quarter, Zawadzki found a wide open Matthew Coots calling for the ball, and Coots nailed a bomb at the buzzer of his own to completely break the Bulldogs’ backs.

Moultrie had 11 points and six rebounds to lead the Bulldogs, while Newsome added 11 points and three rebounds.

Nathan Kirkpatrick added eight points for the Eagles, canning two of the team’s 10 3s on the night, while Coots and Spencer Thomas each scored five.

And now it’s time for the Eagles to live the dream.

“It’s a dream come true (playing at UD Arena),” Zawadzki said. “It’s finally my turn. Our turn.”

“It feels great,” Salazar said. “We’ve all played our hardest to get here. We’ve earned this chance.”

Covington’s A.J. Ouellette gets an opponent in a headlock Friday at the Division III state tournament.

When I was a sophomore, I had a situation like that, undefeated, expected to win, ended up getting beat.

“He just needs to get his head on right, then come back with a determined attitude and do what he is supposed to do.”

After Day 1 of the Division III state wrestling tournament Thursday in Columbus, Troy Christian (16 points) slightly trailed Delta (16.5) in the team standings. By the end of the second day, though, the Eagles had a solid cushion.

Troy Christian is in first with 76.5 points, 13 ahead of Delta (63.5) and 13 ahead of Dayton Christian (63).

“It’s a different situation for the fact that at this point last year, Waynedale was so far ahead that we were only really fighting Delta for the runner-up trophy,” Morgan said. “I don’t know what the final is right now after B.J.’s match, but I think we’re in the driver’s seat. We’ve got three in the finals, one in the wrestle-backs that should get through. So we’re in good position to capitalize on this opportunity.”

• Seagraves, Ouellette Place Miami East’s Allen Seagraves (120) has won his first match at the Division III state tournament three out of four years he has qualified.

However, the senior ended up losing his next match every time, then missed out on placing.

It looked like that trend would continue Friday, but Seagraves wasn’t about to let it happen. After dropping a 9-4 decision in his quarterfinal match against defending state champ at 113 Sammy Gross of Beachwood, Seagraves scored a late takedown and an escape versus Newark Catholic’s D.J. DeVito to come away with an 8-6 victory — guaranteeing himself a spot on the podium.

“Once I won that match, I felt like after that, the stress was off me,” Seagraves said. “I’ve never placed before, so after winning that match, it just took a bunch off me.”

“His performance every time he wrestles is always top-notch,” Miami East coach Jason Sroufe said. “I mean, you can tell when

he’s tight, you can tell when he’s loose. It’s always tough on this stage. It’s the biggest venue of the year, the biggest crunch time of the year — you’ve got to perform, because there is nothing after this.”

Seagraves came back in his later match and edged Carroll Bloom-Carroll’s Chandler Minnard 2-1 to put himself one win away from advancing to the third-place consolation match.

“Now that I’ve won that last one, I definitely want to get to the third-fourth match,” Seagraves said.

“That would be great.”

Seagraves has six career state wins up to this point. He will look to add victories seven and eight today.

Covington’s A.J. Ouellette wasn’t even sure if he would make it out of the sectional.

Then everything started clicking for the junior.

Ouellette (182) was sent to the consolation round after a loss in the quarters to start the day Friday, then came back to beat Caldwell’s Jared Leasure 5-1 and defeated West Jefferson’s Carter Harris 6-2 — assuring himself a spot on the podium for the first time in his career.

“I’m faster, stronger and more athletic than everybody I wrestle,” Ouellette said. “You have to walk out there believing that.”

Covington coach Tom Barbee explained, however, that Ouellette didn’t always believe that.

“Now he’s using his ability to know to stay in good situations, give himself more chances and setups that he needs to have,” Barbee said. “He’s done a good job of that, which is why he is where he’s at right now.”

The consolation round resumes today at 10 a.m.

Drama overshadows all at Honda PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Rory McIlroy left before his round was even over. Tiger Woods had to rally just to stick around.

And with all that drama Friday in the Honda Classic, hardly anyone noticed that Luke Guthrie showed off his potential in a big way with a 7-under 63 to take a oneshot lead going into the weekend at PGA National.

Guthrie, pegged by many of his peers as a rookie worth watching going into the year, played bogey-free on another cool, cloudy day.

Of his seven birdies, perhaps the most impressive for the Big Ten champion from Illinois came on the sixth hole when he had mud on the side of his ball and was able to work the shot in from the right to about 10 feet.

After finishing his round, he walked into an interview room when someone mentioned that McIlroy walked off the course after being 7over par through eight holes.

“I had no clue,” Guthrie said. “I was just kind of going about my business out there.”

He was at 9-under 131 and had a one-shot lead over Michael Thompson.

McIlroy, who missed the cut in Abu Dhabi and lost in

the first round of the Match Play Championship in his previous two starts, made a double bogey on his second hole and rinsed two balls in the water on the 16th hole on his way to a triple bogey.

He hit his approach to the 18th in the water and never finished the hole.

He shook hands with Ernie Els and Mark Wilson and was on his way, but not before conflicting messages.

McIlroy told three reporters who followed him to his car that it was nothing physical but that he was “not in a good place mentally.”

An hour later, he released a statement through his management company that he couldn’t concentrate because of a sore wisdom tooth.

Woods looked as if he might join him. After mixing birdies with bogeys, Woods went bunker-to-bunker, over the green, short of the green and wound up with a double bogey on the 13th hole that put him one shot under the cut line with five holes to play.

Instead of the second straight week when No. 1 and No. 2 were gone early, Woods answered with a shot into 5 feet for birdie, a 6-foot par putt on the 16th hole, a par save from the back

bunker on the 17th that was easier than it looked, and a par save from near the grandstand by the 18th green that was harder than

it looked.

He wound up with another 70 to make the cut on the number, nine shots out of the lead.

Troy Christian’s Christian Salazar goes up for a dunk during the second half of Friday’s Division IV sectional title victory over Yellow Springs at Troy.

■ CONTINUED FROM 14 consolation. This year, it feels great.”

And Hancock’s victory was huge in the grand scheme of things, since Delta and Dayton Christian are right behind Troy Christian in the race for the state team title.

Hancock’s finals bout is a rematch of the last weekend’s Division III district final against Greenview’s Logan Lacure, who he beat 11-7.

He will be joined in the finals by Ganger and defending state champion Toal. Marshall, however, was up-ended in the semifinal by undefeated Kollin Moore of Creston Norwayne.

Ganger pinned his quarters opponent, Tyler Sarreshteh of Findlay Liberty-Benton, at 1:33. In the semis, Ganger defeated Ashland Mapleton’s Zach Durbin by a score of 7-3, advancing to the state final for the second year in a row.

“I just went out there calm, and I said to myself ‘I’m going to make it to the finals again,’” Ganger said.

“It feels good because now I know I’ve got a chance to go out there and win the finals again, which is what I want. I’m going to go hard.”

Toal and Marshall both had major decision victories in the quarters. Toal defeated Glenn Zaller of Orwell Grand Valley 20-8, and Marshall outlasted Greenwich S. Central’s Caleb Barnett 14-5. Toal cruised in his semifinal match against LaGrange Keystone’s Jacob Worthington, scoring a 2510 tech fall win — and with that, critical bonus points for the team race — setting up a finals bout with Sam Groff, who Toal beat last year at state on his way to the individual title.

“I know he (Groff) doesn’t like to shoot a lot,” said Toal, who is will be appearing in his third state finals match in the last three years. “He kind of wrestles like me. He’s pretty good on top.”

Marshall led 1-0 on Moore going into the third period, but Moore tied the score at 1-1 to force overtime. In OT, Moore took down Marshall for one of the biggest upsets in the tournament to this point.

“When you go through something like that, it’s hard to control someone,” Troy Christian coach Ty Morgan said. “He just needs to take some time, digest it tonight, get his head on straight and come back (today) and bounce back. I can relate to that.
