And the survey says … More than 700 people responded to a 16-question survey sent out to 9,000 people in the Hobart Arena e-mail database of past participants of Troy Recreational Department programs and event attendees, according to Hobart Arena and city of Troy Recreational Department director Ken Siler. Siler presented the survey results to members of the Troy Recreation board Thursday. “We had a very good response rate,” Siler said. According to the survey, more than 700 people participated in the survey, which was sent out via email on Feb. 22 and closed March 8. The survey was self-generated from the Hobart Arena staff. The last survey was conducted in 2010. The 2013 Hobart Arena patron experience survey featured questions centered on their experience during recent events. Survey questions included the participants’ experience from ticket purchases, traffic and parking, staff interaction, quality of performance and overall experience. Nearly 40 percent of the responded rated staff interaction experience as “Excellent,” 24 percent as “Above Average,” almost 10 percent “Average,” and 22 percent with “No Response.” “I’m very pleased with the positive response in regards to our staff,” Siler said. “That means people are having a positive experience when they are here and interacting with our staff.” “That shows we must be doing something right as far as staffing goes,” Siler said. “I couldn’t be any more pleased with that number.” Only seven people out of 691 surveyed said their overall experience with Hobart Arena staff was “poor” or “below average”
and could face more charges, Carsey said. A box truck too tall for the Eldean Road railroad overpass also crashed into the overpass at 7:23 a.m. Thursday, according to Miami County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Chris Bobb. Bobb said the driver, Ron Smith, was uninjured, however the truck — which received substantial damage — was able to be removed from the overpass. Smith was charged with failure to obey a traffic warning device. The clearance is marked for a 9foot-8-inch height clearance, but has been the site of several accidents in past years. • See SURVEY on Page 2

West Milton Park Board gets a fresh start BY JOYELL NEVINS Civitas Media tdneditorial@civitasmedia.com The Parks Board is back. After four years of being disbanded, West Milton has a new green space coming and a new board to decide what to do with that space and the other parks in town. “Manager Kline and I cannot help but feel the energy and excitement, a fresh beginning and new perspective of our parks system,” Supervisor of
WEST MILTON Streets and Grounds Ben Herron told the board at its first meeting Wednesday night. “I love our parks department and would love to see it grow.” The new board ranges from a stayat-home mom to men whose kids are grown and gone and includes council and government representation. All are West Milton residents and all are eager to be a part of this new venture.
“It’s something new to this community, and I want to be a part of this,” declared council liaison Susan Willis. According to its mission statement, the board will be “committed to enhancing the quality of life for all residents and guests of the municipality” through maintaining and improving existing West Milton parks, and establishing new parks as the need and/or opportunity arises. The board serves as advisers to Herron and the council liaisons. Herron said the original parks

Drivers endure high gas prices despite US oil boom NEW YORK (AP) — The U.S. is increasing its oil production faster than ever, and American drivers are guzzling less gas. But you’d never know it from the price at the pump. The national average price of gasoline is $3.69 per gallon and forecast to creep higher, possibly approaching $4 by May. U.S. oil output rose 14 percent to 6.5 million barrels per day last year a record increase. By 2020, the nation is forecast to overtake Saudi Arabia as the world’s largest crude oil producer. At the same time, U.S. gasoline demand has fallen to 8.7 million barrels a day, its lowest level since 2001, as people switch to more fuel-efficient cars. — Staff and wire reports
board dissolved because of lack of funding and green space to work with. “When we started cutting the purse strings, the first thing to go is recreational,” Herron said. The board will be meeting monthly on the third Wednesday in council chambers. For its next meeting, though, Herron will take them on a tour of all the park spaces, so there is a visual to go with the discussion. For any questions or input, call the municipal office at (937) 698-1500.

Survey • CONTINUED FROM 1 during events. Many of the survey questions were focused on the participants’ attendance at the following events held at Hobart Arena in 2012: Josh Turner, Jake Owen, Styx, Chicago, Chris Tomlin, Terry Fator and Southern Fried Chicks. Siler also noted more than 71 percent of survey responders said the quality of the performance they attended at Hobart Arena was “excellent” and 21 percent “above average.” More than 48 percent of those surveyed said their overall experience at Hobart Arena was “excellent.” Other responses included: 26 percent “above average;” and 22 percent with “no response.” Only five responses reflected a “poor” or “below average” in the overall experience category. More details were gleaned from the survey including what would improve their experience at future events. Most responses were for “More Variety” when asked what Hobart Arena could do to improve to provide visitors to return to the venue. “That’s what we’ve been trying to do,” Siler said, noting country acts, Christian acts as well as comedy and other unique shows added in recent years to Hobart Arena’s lineup. “We will continue to try to do that.” The survey also asked who participants would like to see show up next at
Hobart Arena in the rock, country, Christian, teen, comedy and tribute band categories. “We really take the feedback we receive into consideration and try our best to get them here,” Siler said. “It’s great to know that people are pleased with the quality of acts we’ve brought.” More than 83 percent of those survey said they bought tickets for events online and 49 percent of those who bought tickets online rated the experience “Excellent” and 18 percent as “Above average.” “That really helps us and has run very smoothly for us,” Siler said of online ticket sales. Nearly 50 percent of those surveyed heard about events through Hobart Arena’s “E-blast” email notification; 22 percent in local newspapers and 18 percent on the radio. Other responses included 20 percent heard about events through websites; 12 percent on Facebook and 12 percent “Word of Mouth.” Siler said last Friday night’s Justin Moore concert was the country artist’s first sell-out for the “Outlaws Like Me” tour with almost 3,000 seats sold for Moore’s second stop on his tour. “He played for more than two hours — that’s almost unheard of,” Siler said. “People really got their money’s worth and the people on the tour said they were pleased with the response.” Siler said despite the venue
selling out of alcoholic beverages that night, the staff was 10 minutes away from cutting off alcohol sales anyway. Siler said only one scuffle occurred near the stage front and the people were promptly removed from the arena without incident. It was the first time Hobart Arena tried an open floor for Section A ticket holders for a concert. “It went pretty well,” Siler said. “All in all, it was a great show and people had a great time.” The next concert event at Hobart Arena will be the “Signs of Life: The Essence of Pink Floyd” on May 4. Tickets are available online or at Hobart Arena offices on the second floor. For more information about upcoming events at Hobart Arena, visit www.hobartarena.com.

Sanders said he expects a good showing from his family. “My mom’s invited everyone apparently,” he said, smiling. “My brother’s coming in from Indiana.” Senior Emily Royer, 18, will play Sandy for her fourth and final production at THS. She’ll be wearing her grandmother’s wedding dress in the show. “It’s bittersweet obviously, but I’m really excited to lead the cast,” she said. Her mother Lorena Overly said she’s delighted to see her daughter on stage. “Emily’s been involved all four years, and she’s just thrilled, and I’m thrilled for her,” Overly said, with tears in her eyes. “I was here the other night listening to her sing, and it was just wonderful. The kids put in so much work for it. I don’t think people even realize how much work goes in.” The cast has been rehearsing for about 10 weeks. Ali Kolber said she was so excited back in January to get the part of Rizzo that she started crying.With “Grease” marking her last production, Kolber said she has mixed feelings. “It’s humbling. I’m going to miss the people, and it’s just been a second home for the last four years,” she said, adding tearfully, “I’m already a drama queen, so I get really emotional.” Sarah Helke also was thrilled to get her part — Frenchy. “I love it. This has been my dream role since I first saw ‘Grease’ when I was 9. She was so pretty and bubbly,” Helke said. As a musical newbie, Will Scarborough, 17, said he was surprised to get the part of Kenickie. He describes the role as quite different from his usual demeanor. “I try to make myself angry. I’m normally a more relaxed, toned-down person,” Scarborough said. “This guy’s kind of a jerk.” Being in the musical allowed him to meet many great people — including someone very special. “I met my girlfriend,” Scarborough said, pointing at Helke. Both grinned. The 1 p.m. show Saturday will feature a special appearance from Troy teacher Steve Becker, the winner of a “penny wars” contest. Through the fundraiser, students had the opportunity to select which teacher they wanted to see in the chorus. Becker admitted he feels “petrified” to dance in the Grease Lightning scene. “To be honest with you, I don’t know how the kids learned all 12 — is it 12? — different dances. It’s embarrassing how long it took me to learn one dance. But the kids learned it just like that,”

he said, snapping his fingers. Saturday also will be an understudy performance. With so many talented kids auditioning — about 70 — Strope said he wanted to give understudies the chance to shine too. He noted that being an understudy can often be more difficult, with those students having less rehearsal time, and some being cast as the lead for other roles as well. Joe Henson, for instance, is Roger for three performances but is also the understudy for Danny, while Alexandra Covault plays Patty and is the second-inline for Sandy. A fundraiser for the production will be hosted at Bob Evan’s in Troy from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Wednesday, March 25-27. The restaurant, located at 1749 W.

COLUMBUS (AP) — With a presidential election behind them, Ohio lawmakers passed several bills Wednesday to make changes to the battleground state’s election laws. One measure was more contentious than the other: It would restrict the time groups have to collect the extra signatures needed to make sure their ballot questions get before voters. Under the proposal, groups couldn’t gather additional signatures until the secretary of state notifies them whether their initial petitions have fallen short. Current law already allows groups 10 days to file any added signatures once they get notification from the state’s elections chief. But campaigns typically continue to collect signatures after they submit their initial petitions to maximize their time to get additional names. That time has varied, depending on how long it takes election officials to certify that the initial signatures are from valid Ohio voters. Supporters say they want groups to have the MONDAY same amount of time to gather extra signatures, • BUDDY READING: Buddy reading at while opponents argue the bill erodes Ohioans referthe Milton-Union Public Library will be endum and ballot initiative from 6:30-7:30 p.m. The program for elerights. mentary-aged students is designed to help increase reading skills and compreState Rep.

the measure gives everyone equal time to get an issue on the ballot regardless of their political leanings. Dovilla said all Ohioans would get the constitutionally required 90 days to collect signatures for a referendum and 10 additional days to gather the insufficient signatures “no matter what group you belong to, no matter what the issue is at hand, and no matter which individual from whatever political party happens to occupy the office of secretary of state.” State Rep. Kathleen Clyde, a Democrat from Kent, called the bill “a solution in search of a problem.” Clyde said the measure makes it more difficult for people to bring about a ballot question and opens the state up to litigation. “The right to referendum is a very important check the people have to push back on abuses of this Legislature,” Clyde said. “This bill is a direct attack on that sacred right.” The Republican-controlled House approved the measure on a 56-37 vote, and the GOP-led Senate signed off on that chamber’s revisions. It now heads to the Republican governor’s desk. Democrats were successful in gathering enough signatures to ask voters to overturn GOP-
backed collective bargaining restrictions in 2011. The party also circulated petitions in an effort to toss out changes to the state’s election laws, though the Legislature repealed the measure and the issue never went before voters last year. State Rep. Chris Redfern, who’s also the Ohio Democratic Party chairman, said the party would overcome any difficulties in the referendum process. “We’ll gather up the signatures necessary,” Redfern said. “We’ll succeed.” Secretary of State Jon Husted, the state’s top election official, said the bill provides needed guidance on how long petitioners have to get the extra signatures. Husted, a Republican, said his office didn’t initiate the changes nor have a role in writing the bill. But he said he supported having clarity on the referendum process, which he thought could help protect the state from legal challenges. “We just want it to be fair for everybody fair and equal,” Husted said in a telephone interview with the AP. He said he didn’t have a position on how much time petitioners should have to collect the added signatures.

AS I SEE IT
Teen moms should not be television superstars BY KAITLYN STEWART Edison State Community College Student Teen pregnancy in America is a big problem. While teen pregnancy rates might be on the decline, the rates are still too high. In looking at Ohio alone, there were still 13, 923 births to females under the age of 20. Ohio is 24th out of the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Sixty-two percent of these mothers were non-Hispanic white females under the age of 20. Ninety-three percent of these births are outside of wedlock. As stated earlier, teenage pregnancy rates are in fact decreasing. From 1991 to 2010, the rates decreased by 44 percent. However, it's not time to take the topic off the table. "Four hundred thousand teen girls get pregnant each year," says Amy Kramer, senior director of entertainment for the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy. Teen pregnancy in the U.S. is nine times higher than many other developed countries. Shows such as MTV’s "16 and Pregnant" aim to show teens what being a mom at a young age is like, but does it glamorize the idea of pregnancy? Doctor Logan Levkoff, a teen development expert, says that even if a show like "Teen Mom 2" doesn't glamorize teen pregnancy, there are in fact more examples of pregnant teens in pop culture more than ever before. MTV attempts to show the hardships and tolls of pregnancy, but the fact is, those girls are still on television. The show is great for the network and the young women have become stars, even earning six-figure incomes and gracing the covers of tabloids. They have become celebrities, and for what? Because they got pregnant and called MTV. The teens are showing up on the covers of magazines, getting paid and receiving endorsement deals and calendar deals. That's the message. Even if MTV shows all of the hardships, they're still being supportive in so many other ways. The young mother’s fame doesn't always come from good behavior either. Amber Portman, a teen mom from the show's first season, was arrested for domestic violence. Jenelle Evans, a 19-year-old mom appearing on “Teen Mom 2” was arrested for breaking and entering, as well as possession of drugs, shortly before the premiere of her appearance on the show. Dr. Drew Pinsky, an American board-certified internist and addiction medicine specialist, stated that "we are in woeful shape. The strange thing about the entirety of the sexual revolution is that no one even thought this sexual revolution thing hoisted by adults was raining down on teenagers and young adults. It's had dire, dire consequences." The only consequence is not having to raise a child at a young age. A CDC study showed that only 50 percent of teenage mothers will receive a high school diploma by the age of 22 . Out of all of the “Teen Mom” participants, only one was able to get close to her education goals. The rest have dropped out or gotten their GEDs much later than they anticipated. “16 and Pregnant” star Alex Sekella herself, along with several other teenaged mothers, believed that pregnancy would not happen to them, and therefore did not use protection while having sex. Sekella understands what can happen first hand, but until she was actually pregnant and in this situation, she and numerous other teens were blissfully unaware of the consequences of being a teenaged mother. Still, Sekella is one of the lucky teenaged mothers. MTV is paying her loads of money for being on the show and sharing her story, while most teens that are faced with situation are not on television; nor are the big name companies that want entertainment for teens helping out the young mothers.
LETTERS The New York Times on no nukes on the Korean Peninsula: It’s little wonder that South Koreans are thinking about ways to defend themselves, given North Korea’s bizarre and dangerous behavior. The North has recently launched a long-range rocket and conducted its third nuclear test. It has also unleashed a barrage of apocalyptic threats, including potentially launching “pre-emptive nuclear strikes” on Seoul and the United States and declaring the 1953 Korean War armistice nullified. In response, some influential South Koreans have urged
that the South develop its own nuclear arsenal, and recent polls show that two-thirds of the population concurs. In recent years, the international community has demonstrated rare unity in imposing sanctions on Iran and North Korea to curb their nuclear ambitions. South Korea would do better spending the billions of dollars that nuclear weapons would cost on conventional capabilities that would actually enhance its security. The United States recently bolstered the deployment of ballistic missile defense warships in waters off the Korean Peninsula and on Friday,
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel announced that the Pentagon is enhancing America’s ability to defend itself from a North Korean nuclear missile attack by deploying up to 14 additional ground-based interceptors on the West Coast. Many experts say that the North’s new leader, Kim Jongun, is looking to enhance his political position, not start a war. But there is a huge and growing risk of miscalculation. There is also every reason to believe that adding the threat of nuclear weapons from the South would inflame the situation, not calm it.

DOONESBURY
I’ve been living on a ‘wing’ and a prayer lately Lately, I’ve been running around like a chicken with its head cut off. Now, I’ve never actually witnessed a headless chicken, but I’ve heard stories passed down from my Grandma Norma Jean about life on the farm well before meat appeared miraculously on store shelves. Last weekend, my schedule was jam-packed. I prefer it that way. If I have too much time on my hands, I tend to get in trouble or acquire more possessions such as furniture, clothes or barnyard animals. Between keeping up with Evan’s homework and school projects schedule to researching college basketball statistics to increase my chances of beating Executive Editor David Fong in our annual “Brackets of Shame” wager, life has been nonstop. Last Friday night I picked up my girlfriends, went out to eat at Kuzzins Bar and Grille before we headed to the Justin Moore concert at the Hobart Arena. I selfishly rushed everyone to down their drinks and scarf down their food — I didn’t want to miss the opening act. The concert was great and despite it being almost midnight, we met up with friends at a new bar in downtown Troy called MoJos. Now, this is what kind of stinks
Melanie Yingst Troy Daily News Columnist about being the designated driver. Sometimes you are more like a taxi driver, the psychiatrist and a babysitter. This taxi driver didn’t end up getting home until after 3 a.m. Now, normally, this wouldn’t have been a problem for a night owl like me — except I had to be up at 6:30 a.m. for the annual Farmers’ Share breakfast. Only farmers and thieves are up that early folks. So when my great friend Swank text messaged me at 6:47 a.m. to see when I’d be at the fairgrounds, I knew I wouldn’t be there on time. Not only did I wake up extremely tired, I also woke up extremely guilt-ridden. As part of helping with the clean-up for the Miami County Farm Bureau with their 50 cent Farmers’ Share breakfast (the only day of the year I can afford to buy breakfast), Evan’s 4-H club also was able to
sell baked good for goodwill donations during the event. Now I know some of you think I’m all sugar and spice, but believe me, none of that ever ends up in anything I cook. I had every intention of making cupcakes, but I simply ran out of time. Because I’m not SuperMom, I stopped in my local grocery store and picked up two giant chocolate chip cookies all decorated for St. Patrick’s Day. I felt like such a store-bought failure. I finally arrived at the fairgrounds — 22 minutes later — and set my bakery bought cookies (yes, I took the stickers off, but who was I fooling?) and mentally prepared to see them sit there all day without a second look. To my complete surprise, five minutes later they were sold. In fact, a kid came up to me and asked if I had any more 4-H cookies. I totally high-fived myself! Also, St. Patrick’s Day shamrocks sort of look like the 4-H clover. I totally meant to do that accidentally on purpose. Evan and I worked as a team that morning. I helped wash down tables for the masses as Evan followed behind and put fresh Farm Bureau place mats in the empty spaces. He also found time to teach all the boys in his 4-H club how to
make paper airplanes out of the Farm Bureau place mats. Bless his heart. Then my phone rang and Norma Jean’s name popped up. Thanks to Facebook (and my Aunt Linda), my grandmother thought I had obtained a gaggle of ducks I’d been eyeing lately. Last week, I even made my boss drive me to Tractor Supply to learn more about ducks, but I decided now was not the time to add animals to the farm. Norma Jean was quite relieved that I didn’t decide to buy the cute, little fluffy ducks. She said it was too cold, ducks make a mess, I didn’t have a duck house and heat lamps are dangerous. I guess she would know. She loved having ducks on the farm when she was a little girl. But Norma Jean was right. I was just too busy at this time to take care of a herd of ducks, especially at a time when I can’t even make a batch of cupcakes for a 4-H fundraiser. That, and our farmhand Ryan said my dad would lose his mind it if he found ducks in the barn. No harm, no fowl right? “Twin” Melanie Yingst appears on Fridays in the Troy Daily News. She’lll probably lose the “Brackets of Shame” wager. Again.

BOE members discuss technology transitions BY JENNIFER RUNYON For the Troy Daily News tdneditorial@civitasmedia.com The Covington Exempted Village Board of Education members heard an update on the district’s technology Thursday night during a regular session meeting. Throughout the summer, the technology department will be working to make many transitions. The district will be changing from Novell to Microsoft. Currently, Novell costs the district $3,590. Microsoft will be $4,500, but many additional features are included. With Microsoft, licenses are not granted per computer as with Novell, but rather the full time employee count. This will mean that the number of licenses will not change yearly as it is currently. Also, the entire district will have the same Microsoft suite. Currently, problems happen because different versions are used. The technology department also will be changing the switches at the elementary and middle schools to allow for wireless connectivity. This already has been done at the high school. Leaders hope to cover at least a portion of the cost to transition to wireless with a grant from the Miami County Foundation. All new equipment will be transferred to a new building if the building project comes to fruition. Board members also heard about an accident involving the school van.
COVINGTON Special needs students were being transported to Northridge High School. The van had stopped to pick up a student in Northridge when it was rear ended on Needmore Road. No one was injured and minor damage was reported. The van driver was not at fault. Insurance will repair the damage. Also during the meeting, a resignation was accepted for Craig Haver, high school social studies teacher. Maternity leave was approved for elementary and middle school art teacher Sara Schmitmeyer; a long term substitute was approved as well. A retirement resignation was accepted for bus driver Peggy Layman. Three-year contracts were approved for all of the district’s principals, and an engine replacement for bus #5 was approved not to exceed $10,000. Superintendent Dave Larsen said the district has applied for a grant. It will not be known for sure if the money for the engine repair will be needed until a decision is made regarding the grant. However, Larsen wanted to get the board’s approval now rather than waiting until next month’s board meeting. The board then went into executive session to discuss negotiations. No action was taken following the executive session. The board will meet again for the next regular meeting at 6 p.m. April 18 at the board of education office.

Performances are at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday at Covington Middle School.
Aye, matey! CHS to present ‘Jolly Roger’ this weekend BY BELINDA M. PASCHAL Staff Writer bpaschal@civitasmedia.com COVINGTON — You’ll go overboard with laughter at Covington High School drama club’s latest production, which tells the tale of an English nobility turned sea-roving buccaneers. In “Jolly Roger and the Pirate Queen,” written by Craig Sodaro, the wellheeled Roger Goodman (Michael Wilson) intends to marry wealthy Sarah Huffington (Jenna Rindler) until he overhears her telling her friends how boring he is. What she really wants is a dashing pirate. So, unbeknownst to his intended, that’s exactly what he becomes, with the help of Long John Sliver (Colton Risner) and a new name, Captain Blood. In the meantime, Sarah decides she’ll never find her pirate unless she becomes one herself. After revamping herself into the Pirate Queen, she quickly becomes notorious for raiding ship after ship. The twist, said director Bridgit Kerber, is that “neither one knows the other is a pirate, and hilarity ensues.” Indeed it does, in this two-act show filled with wacky wordplay and swashbuckling suspense. Kerber, who also teaches English at CHS, said the play was chosen by senior
members of the drama club after reading about a dozen plays and voting on their favorite. Lead actors Wilson and Rindler, both seniors who have been in drama club for four years, agreed that the toughest part of doing “Jolly Roger” was learning to sword fight. To help choreograph the fencing scenes, Kerber relied on material she had found for a previous show on, of all places, the Internet. “I directed ‘Robin Hood’ about six to eight years ago and it had a lot of fighting with staffs and swords,” Kerber said. “I taught them six basic moves. It is not by any means elaborate, but it works.” In an atmosphere where
young people tend to separate into cliques, Kerber finds it heartening to be able to harmoniously unite students from disparate groups. “We have athletes, band kids, gamers, artists and so on. It’s great to be able to make this show a place where they can all be the same,” she said. Assistant directors for “Jolly Roger” are Kyle Moore and Jill Lynott. Moore teaches English at Tippecanoe High School and writes the “Calling Around Covington” column for the Piqua Daily Call. Lynott has 20 years of experience in theater and doubles as the acting coach for this production. The cast also includes John Longenecker, Sarah Ray, Katie Blair, Matt
Carder, Jade Overman, John Stekli, Lori Romie, Danielle Swabb, Megan Lange, Austin Sherman, Meghan Parker, Mariah Dysinger, Taylor Hill, Collin Stager, David (DJ) Hamilton, Briana Grilliot, Hannah Pritchard, Kristin Romie and Anthony Rader. A crew of 10 students helps things run smoothly behind and between the scenes. Performances of “Jolly Roger and the Pirate Queen” will be at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday. Advance tickets are available for $5 at the high school and middle school offices. Tickets are $7 at the door. For more information, call the high school at (937) 473-3746.
of generational clashes, coming-of-age milestones and generally relatable laughs. The animated adventure features a strong, star-studded cast and dazzles visually in wondrously colorful, vibrant 3-D, but the script doesn’t pop off the screen quite so effectively. The simplistic message here is: Trying new things is good. It’s a useful notion for kids in the crowd to chew on, but their older companions may be longing for something more substantive. Still, “The Croods” is both brisk and beautiful, and should be sufficiently entertaining for family audiences for whom few such options exist these days. And it might be especially resonant with young female viewers, with a strong, resourceful teenage girl at its center named Eep (voiced by Emma Stone in her usual charming rasp). It’s the prehistoric era,
and while the rest of Eep’s family prefers the comforting safety of hiding fearfully inside a cave, with only sporadic outings for group hunts, she longs to see what’s outside those stone walls. Her dad, Grug (Nicolas Cage), is especially protective, neurotically worrying about every possible unknown and urging the same sort of apprehension in everyone else. But everything changes when Eep escapes and meets a guy named Guy (Ryan Reynolds). Catherine Keener and Cloris Leachman co-star. PG for some scary action. 92 minutes. Two and a half stars out of four. • “The Sapphires” — This Aussie hodgepodge is missing a lot detailed characters, a unique narrative arc, half-plausible scenes of the Vietnam War but it’s got two uncommon things going for it: warmhearted charm and Chris
O’Dowd. They are not mutually exclusive. O’Dowd, the Irish comedic actor, has no proper business being in this film about four Aboriginal sisters in rural ’60s Australia who set out to make it as a pop singing group. But this is the same actor who managed to play a Milwaukee police officer with his natural brogue in “Bridesmaids.” His passport, thankfully, has some peculiar powers. Bowled over at a rinky-dink local talent show, he becomes the manager of the singing quartet (Deborah Mailman, Miranda Tapsell, Jessica Mauboy and Shari Sebbens). He shapes them into a Supremes-like foursome and soon they’re off to entertain U.S. troops in Vietnam. There’s a historical backdrop of Australia’s discrimination against its Aboriginal natives, but firsttime director Wayne Blair
keeps the tone light. When the story moves to Vietnam, its less-than-expert filmmaking and threadbare, inauthentic settings get harder to forgive. But even at its most unpolished and cheesiest, O’Dowd and the film’s bright spirit make it a tune hard to resist. PG-13 for sexuality, a scene of war violence, some language, thematic elements and smoking. 99 minutes. Two and a half stars out of four.

• “Admission” — What should be a hilarious, longoverdue pairing of two hugely likable, superstar comedians ends up being a major disappointment. As much film and television work as they do individually, Tina Fey and Paul Rudd surprisingly never have worked together. In theory, her smart, zingy persona should mesh beautifully with his easygoing goofiness or their shared dynamic should bounce, or snap, or have some sort of life to it. Instead, Paul Weitz’s direction of Karen Croner’s script is tonally erratic: too fast in spots and too much of a slog in others. It certainly doesn’t help that the characters feel like types without much nuance. Even reliable comic veterans like Fey and Rudd can’t find much that’s new or fresh in these people, and as a result they have zero chemistry with
each other. Fey, as a Princeton University admissions officer, is always uptight, precise and emotionally closed-off. Rudd, as the dogooder founder of an alternative New England high school, is always free-spirited, adventurous and open-minded. Even in the fantasy world of romantic comedies where opposites attract and sparks fly, these two have no business being together. Nat Wolff plays the odd, brilliant student who may be the son Fey’s character put up for adoption as a newborn and Lily Tomlin provides the film’s few moments of joy as Fey’s maverick feminist mother. PG-13 for language and some sexual material. 100 minutes. One and a half stars out of four. • “The Croods” — Cavemen they’re just like us! or so “The Croods” seems to be saying with its familiar mix

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Forgive your parents and try to move forward Dear Annie: I grew up with a sister who had substance abuse problems. While I studied hard, "Carla" dropped out of school and led a life of partying. My parents always made sure she was well provided for. Every time they gave her something expensive, my mother would say, "Don't worry, you will get the same in my will." Then one day, my parents told me they had signed over the family home to Carla. She told them I had agreed to it, but I never discussed it with her. But when I said this to my parents, they yelled and screamed and called me a liar. They said it didn't matter anyway because they would make it up to me in the will. They then told me the value of the house for the sake of the will, which was a quarter of its actual worth. I suggested they get the house appraised, and they became angry. They also lied to our relatives about what happened, although when my parents die, it will be obvious that I received nothing from them. Annie, I have been a good son to my parents for my entire life. How can they do this to me? This hurts so much that it's the first thing I think of when I wake up in the morning. I am ready to walk away from my family. I deserve better. — Left-Out Son Dear Left Out: You do deserve better, but your parents feel so guilty and obligated toward Carla that they give her everything in a misguided attempt to protect her from herself. You cannot fix this. But you can forgive them and move forward. Accept that you are not likely to get an equitable share of their estate. If there is a specific item that you would like to have, it's OK to ask your parents whether you can have it now, and tell them that you do not expect anything more. Once the inheritance is off the table, you will be able to have a relationship with your parents based on who they are and not on what you deserve to get as a reward for being a good son. Dear Annie: I've been invited to the wedding of an old college friend who is gay. I am a Christian and believe that homosexuality is a sin. I will send my regrets. My question is: Do I send a gift? I know that traditional wedding etiquette says to send a gift when invited, but would a gift say I approve of and support her decision? What should I do? — Reluctant Gift Giver Dear Reluctant: A gift does not indicate approval of the marriage. If that were the case, quite a few people would not receive one. You send a gift to wish your friend well. If you do not wish your friend well, and you do not attend the wedding, you do not need to send a card or a present. Dear Annie: This is for "Disappearing Connections," the recently retired aunt who decided to "unburden" herself of possessions and offered some of her clothing to a niece. She's now miffed because the niece has not thanked her. Stop it! You offered your niece a bunch of clothes you no longer wanted, and she was kind enough to accept them. Now you are acting like it was a gift and she needs to send you a thank-you note for stuff you didn't want anymore. Go find a hobby, and give your clothes to a charity. Trust me, your niece does not want to wear clothes from an old lady. She was just being kind by accepting them in the first place. — Been There Dear Been There: There is NO excuse for not acknowledging receipt of a package, especially when the niece asked to have the clothes. And the clothes were indeed a gift, regardless of where they originated. How unconscionably rude to thank someone only for those gifts you like. The niece should have said the package was received and thanked her aunt for taking the time to send it. Period.

HOROSCOPE BY FRANCES DRAKE For Saturday, March 23, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is a playful, flirtatious day. Enjoy social outings with others. This also is an unusually creative day, so look for ways to enjoy arts and crafts. (Aries is the artisan of the zodiac.) TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You’ll love relaxing at home today or just puttering around where you live. This is an ideal day to just goof off and avoid making important decisions. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You’ll enjoy talking to neighbors, siblings and relatives today, because people are laid-back, social and friendly. However, this is a poor day to shop or make important decisions. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You’re focused on money; nevertheless, this is a poor day to shop for anything except food. Postpone important financial decisions until tomorrow. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You feel unusually warm and friendly to everyone today. This is a great day to socialize or just relax. However, it’s a poor day to make major purchases and big decisions. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Enjoy solitude in beautiful surroundings today. Let yourself have a relaxing, pleasant holiday if possible. Don’t push the river. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Conversations with others, especially in group settings, will be surprisingly frank and open. People are relaxed today and are willing to divulge personal information. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Secrets about your private life can come out today, especially in the eyes of bosses, parents and VIPs. By nature, you’re a private person; therefore, be on guard. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is a lovely day to enjoy philosophical discussions and meet people from different backgrounds. You’re eager to expand your horizons. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) This is a poor day to make important decisions about shared property, insurance matters or inheritances. Just do research in these areas, but don’t make a decision. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Be easygoing and friendly, and just go along with others today, because really, that’s your only choice. Fortunately, it will be easy to do, because you’ll enjoy the company of others. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) This is a goofy day, which makes work a bit difficult. You would rather play. Knowing this, you don’t have to push too hard, right? Better to work when you feel like it (if you have the choice). YOU BORN TODAY You are curious about everything, because at heart, you’re a pioneer. You’re not superficial. You’re intrigued by the big questions in life — the meaning of existence, mortality and how we should best live our lives. You love meeting people from all walks of life. In your year ahead, a major change will occur, perhaps something as significant as what took place around 2004.

Health law anniversary finds two Americas WASHINGTON (AP) — Three years, two elections, and one Supreme Court decision after President Barack Obama signed the Affordable Care Act, its promise of health care for the uninsured may be delayed or undercut in much of the country because of entrenched opposition from many Republican state leaders. In half the states, mainly led by Democrats, officials are racing deadlines to connect uninsured residents to coverage now only months away. In others it’s as if “Obamacare” signed March 23, 2010 had never passed. Make no mistake, the federal government will step in and create new insurance markets in the 26 mostly red states declining to run their own. Just like the state-run markets in mostly Democratic-led states, the feds will start signing up customers Oct. 1 for coverage effective Jan. 1. But they need a broad crosssection of people, or else the pool will be stuck with what the government calls the “sick and worried” the costliest patients. Insurance markets, or exchanges, are one prong of Obama’s law, providing subsidized private coverage for middle-class households who currently can’t get their own. The other major piece is a Medicaid expansion to serve more lowincome people. And at least 13 states have already indicated they will not agree to that. “It could look like two or three different countries,” said Robert Blendon, a Harvard School of Public Health professor who studies public opinion on health care. “The political culture of a state is going to play an important role in getting millions of people to voluntarily sign up.” Civic leadership from governors, legislators, mayors and business and religious groups is shaping up as a huge factor in the launch of Obama’s plan, particularly since the penalty for ignoring the law’s requirement to get coverage is as low as $95 the first year. People-to-people contacts will be key, and the potential for patchwork results is real. “Obviously it’s a possibility in terms of there being some real
AP
In this Jan. 29, 2013 file photo, Maria Webster joins others protesting Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s stance on health care outside the state capitol in Austin, Texas, where Perry was to deliver the state of the state address. Three years, two elections, and one Supreme Court decision after President Barack Obama signed the Affordable Care Act, its promise of health care for the uninsured may be delayed or undercut in much of the country because of entrenched opposition from many Republican state leaders. difficulties,” said Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa., whose efforts helped pass the law. Casey also said he believes the Obama administration will be ready to lead in states holding back. Disparities already are cropping up. Town Meeting Day the first Tuesday in March is a storied tradition in Vermont, and this year it provided a platform to educate residents about their options under the health care law. As many as 250,000 may eventually get coverage through Vermont Health Connect, as the state’s marketplace is known. “Even before we were a state, these town meetings existed,” said Sean Sheehan, director of education and outreach. “It’s a way people come together as a community, and we are counting on those community connections to get the word out.” The health care plan was on the agenda at about 100 town meet-
ings, and other local gatherings are taking place. Texas residents are entitled to the same benefits as Vermonters, but in the state with the highest proportion of its population uninsured, Gov. Rick Perry will not be promoting the federal insurance exchange, a spokeswoman said. Nor does Perry plan to expand Medicaid. The result is a communications void that civic and political groups, mayors, insurers and hospitals will try to fill. “You have people who aren’t really charged up about it because they don’t even know
“
that they would qualify,” said Durrel Douglas, spokesman for the Texas Organizing Project, an activist group. A national poll this week by the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation found that two of every three uninsured people don’t know enough about the law to understand how it will affect them. Supporters of Obama’s law in Texas say the federal government hasn’t shown up yet to launch the state’s insurance exchange and no one is sure when that will happen. “It is a much bigger lift here,” said Anne Dunkelberg, associate director of the Austin-based
Center for Public Policy Priorities, which advocates for low-income people. “The sooner the federal exchange can get engaged and working with all the folks here who want to promote enrollment, the better.” The Congressional Budget Office predicts a slow start overall, with only 7 million gaining coverage through the exchanges next year, rising to 24 million in 2016. At a recent insurance industry meeting, federal officials directing the rollout rattled off a dizzying list of deadlines. Public outreach will begin in earnest this summer and early fall, said Gary Cohen, head of the Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight. The government sees three main groups of potential customers for the new insurance markets, he said. There’s the “active sick and worried,” people who are uninsured or have pre-existing medical conditions. Under the law, insurers will no longer be able to turn the sick away. There’s the healthy and young. “They feel invincible, they don’t feel a need for health insurance,” said Cohen. Finally, there’s the passive and unengaged. “For these people, a significant education effort needs to happen,” he said. To keep premiums affordable, the government will need to sign up lots of people from the last two groups to balance those in poor health, who will have a strong motivation to join. The official heading consumer outreach for the rollout, Julie Bataille, acknowledges the challenge but says she’s confident. “This is a really an enormous opportunity for us to change the conversation around health care and help individuals understand the benefits they can get,” she said.
It could look like two or three different countries. The political culture of a state is going to play an important role in getting millions of people to voluntarily sign up. — Robert Blendon, Harvard School of Public Health professor

Whether posting or responding to an advertisement, watch out for offers to pay more than the advertised price for the item. Scammers will send a check and ask the seller to wire the excess through Western Union (possibly for courier fees). The scammer's check is fake and eventually bounces and the seller loses the wired amount. While banks and Western branches are Union trained at spotting fake checks, these types of scams are growing increasingly sophisticated and fake checks often aren't caught for weeks. Funds wired through Western Union or MoneyGram are irretrievable and virtually untraceable. If you have questions regarding scams like these or others, please contact the Ohio Attorney General’s office at (800)282-0515.

Numbers, tradition, college offers — one thing jumps out above all the rest in the matchup between Troy Christian and Cleveland VillaAngela St. Joseph. Six-foot-nine. Six-nine.

lected a pile of first championships along the way — face the Vikings today in the Division IV state semifinal round at the Schottenstein Center, they’ll not only be going up against a 12-time state participant, but also one of Ohio’s tallest teams height-wise. “They go 6-9, 6-9, 6-8 off the bench … even their point guard
stands at 6-3,” Zawadzki said. “They’re all big and long, and they’re not like anything we’ve seen all year.” And while Troy Christian is making its first trip to state, VASJ is making state history. The Vikings are the first team in Ohio to reach the state tournament in all four boys basketball divisions. They won the D-I championship in 1991, won three D-II titles in 1992, ‘94 and ‘95 and finished runners-up in D-III in 1997 and 2006.

COLUMBUS (AP) Kyle Ahrens and Damien Richard each had 21 points and Versailles pulled away in the fourth quarter to defeat Leavittsburg LaBrae 64-52 in the second Division III semifinal at the boys state tournament at Ohio State’s Value City Arena on Thursday. Versailles (23-5) goes for its first state title Saturday at 10:30 a.m. against Ottawa-Glandorf, who seek a third. Versailles was runnerup in 2004 in its other state appearance. LaBrae (24-4) led 37-33 at the half and trailed only 49-47 early in the final period. But the team went more than six minutes without a point. Versailles went on a 13-0 run that wasn’t stopped until Peyton Aldridge made a basket with 26 seconds left for the last of his game-high 23 points for the Vikings. Ottawa-Glandorf 61, Ironton 60 T.J. Metzger’s free throw with 1.1 seconds left in overtime lifted Ottawa-Glandorf to a 61-60 victory against Ironton in the opening Division III semifinal at the boys state tournament at Ohio State’s Value City Arena on Thursday. After his foul shot, Ironton turned the ball over with 0.1 seconds left and the Titans ran out the clock. The Titans (25-3) play the Versailles-Leavittsburg LaBrae winner Saturday at 10:30 a.m. with a chance for their first title since 2008 and third overall. • Division II Bishop Watterson 53, Alter 42 Matt Hughes had 21 points as Columbus Bishop Watterson defeated Kettering Archbishop Alter 53-42 in a Division II semifinal at the boys state tournament at Ohio State’s Value City Arena on Thursday. The Eagles (27-1) have won 22 games straight. They’ll take on Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary at 1:30 p.m. Saturday. Watterson took the lead just past the five-minute mark of the second period but didn’t have more than a two-possession advantage until four minutes left in the game. Matt Lehmann added 14 points for Watterson in the school’s state tournament debut. Jaaron Simmons had 17 points for Alter (21-6) in the final game for coach Joe Petrocelli. He announced his retirement last month after a 49-year career, which included 831 wins, secondmost in Ohio history. Akron SVSM 70, Vincent Warren 51 Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary beat Vincent Warren by almost 20 points in the opening Division II semifinal at the boys state tournament at Ohio State’s Value City Arena on Thursday. Nick Wells scored 16 of his 18 points in the first three quarters for the Irish, who won 70-51. The Irish (20-9) play the Columbus Watterson Saturday and will get a chance for a seventh title to tie Middletown for the alltime Ohio lead. The Irish’s last championship was in 2011.

Even though Ohio State hasn’t fared all that well in Dayton since he’s been the head coach — never made it through the opening weekend of the NCAA tournament intact — it’s still the place for his fondest college basketball memory. “When I was a player, I may have had my grandest game ever in this building,” Matta said, being interviewed in a room just up a walkway from the court. “Yes, I say that jokingly, but I hit a last-second shot.” That left-handed shot for Butler — coming out of a timeout
in which his coach listed the other four players as scoring options — is still clear in Matta’s mind. So are those less-joyful days in front of the 13,409 blue and red seats, when he was calling plays during timeouts for the Buckeyes. Second-seeded Ohio State (26-7) is only 1-2 in Dayton during the NCAA tournament under Matta. Still, when it comes to bad moments in the building, those Buckeyes have nothing on Iona (20-13), their opponent on Friday. The Gaels had the AP PHOTO biggest meltdown in NCAA tournament history on that court last Ohio State head coach Thad Matta holds up a piece of a net as he celebrates after the Buckeyes beat Wisconsin in the championship ■ See BUCKEYES on 18 of the Big Ten tournament Sunday in Chicago.

Eagles ■ CONTINUED FROM 16 greatness,” Zawadzki said. “They have three Division I college offers right now, and a fourth and fifth may be on the way. They’re going to present a big challenge for us.” Zawadzki even got to witness some of that history in his youth — and that experience is part of the reason why the state tournament has always been a goal for him. Zawadzki attended VASJ’s 79-65 loss to
Columbus East in the state title game — a game in which Clark Kellogg, now a college basketball analyst for CBS, scored 51 points and had 24 rebounds for the Vikings in a losing effort. “I think I was a sophomore in high school, and just watching him play and the whole atmosphere there, it’s a memory that still sticks in my mind to this day,” Zawadzki said. “That’s why it’s always been my goal to get there.”
And now that they’re there, the Eagles will have to work harder than ever to deal with the Vikings’ pressure. “No. 1, we’re going to have to protect the basketball,” Zawadzki said. “They’re going to apply fullcourt pressure. We have to work hard for great shots. We need to find the absolute best shot out there, and we’re going to work our tails off to get it. And secondly, we’re going to have to limit
their touches inside.” But with sophomore Grant Zawadzki — who was named special mention AllOhio earlier this week — running the point and a host of tremendous ball handlers, shooters and tough defenders surrounding him, the Eagles have the ability to do both things. Just ask Tri-Village, who entered the regional semifinal round with an undefeated record and the No. 1 ranking in the state. The
Eagles eliminated the threat of the Patriots’ post game early on and held on for an overtime victory. “It’s going to be our strength against their strength,” Zawadzki said. “We have great guards, and they have great pressure. They (VASJ) do get in the passing lanes, but I feel that if we have more assists than we have turnovers, we can win the game. “We’ve got a nice gameplan, and we’re ready to
make adjustments if necessary. The kids have all worked incredibly hard this week, and they feel confident going into the game.” And no matter how many times VASJ has been there before, there’s nothing like the first time. “It’s a special feeling, knowing that there are 197 D-IV teams that would love to trade spots with us right now,” Zawadzki said. “We’re very grateful for this opportunity.”

Marquette avoids upset
■ CONTINUED FROM 16 year. Iona pulled out to a 25point lead over BYU late in the first half in a First Four game, then squandered all of it and lost 78-72 for a place on the wrong side of tournament history — biggest blown lead. Only four players remain from that team, and they tried hard not to let those bad feelings creep back when they returned to the arena on Thursday. “It’s not something that I try to think about,” senior Lamont Jones said. “At that point in time, we lost. I took what I could from it. But it’s not something that fuels my fire. It’s a totally different team, totally different identity, personalities, nine new players.” They couldn’t forget about it completely. Their coach won’t let them. When the new-look Gaels were struggling to come together early in the season, coach Tim Cluess reminded them of that NCAA disappointment and what they needed to do to get a chance to go back to the tournament and give a better showing. “We used last year’s game as motivation to drive us toward this year,” Cluess said. “It gave us a chance to return. Had that not happened, I don’t think we’d be sitting here right now.” Iona doesn’t really have a good NCAA tournament memory. The Gaels are 1-8 in the tournament, but the lone victory — 84-78 over Holy Cross in 1980 — was later vacated because of NCAA violations. An upset of the Buckeyes on their close-tohome court would be one of the biggest in a season that’s been full of such surprises.
“The way I said it to them is basically: Somebody here, more than one team in this tournament are going to pull off upsets and going to be the team that everyone is speaking about a week, two weeks down the road,” Cluess said. “Why not us? Why not all of us dream a little bit right now?” The Buckeyes would settle for a nondescript win in an arena that felt pretty cozy on Thursday. They started the day with a practice on their home court back in Columbus. They got on a bus for the one-hour, 15minute drive west on Interstate 70 and south on Interstate 75. Hundreds of fans at UD Arena were waiting to watch their public workout — yes, one of them started the O-H-I-O cheer even before the Buckeyes took the court. All the comforts of home. “Yeah, this is amazing,” guard Aaron Craft said. “We practiced this morning in our own gym, which is great, got on the bus and got over her really quickly. It was quicker than I thought it was going to be, too. “We’re just really excited to see what kind of crowd we can get out there.” A couple of wins would make for a nice, short bus ride home on Sunday and give Matta another UD Arena story to tell, along with the one about a lastsecond, left-handed shot in a Butler uniform. “Please don’t make a big deal out of that,” Matta said. “That’s my one shining moment in college basketball. We can talk about my high school career. I was a better high school player.”

Rose leads by 2 at Bay Hill ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Justin Rose started out as another guy in Tiger Woods’ group Thursday at Bay Hill. He wound up in the lead. Rose put on a clinic with the putter and ran off four straight birdies late in his round for a 7under 65, giving him a two-shot lead after the opening round of the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Woods had two sloppy bogeys from greenside bunkers and didn’t hit it as well as he did when he won Doral two weeks ago. But he made enough key par saves and manhandled the par 5s to scratch out a 69, a reasonable start as he tries to win Bay Hill for the eighth time and return to No. 1 in the world. John Huh had a chance to catch Rose late in the afternoon, but needing a birdie on the final hole, he found a fairway bunker on No. 9 and took bogey for a 67. John Rollins and Brad Fritsch were at 68. Also in the group at 69 with Woods were Ryo Ishikawa of Japan, Nick Watney, Sean O’Hair and Bill Haas, who bogeyed his last two holes. Brandt Snedeker, playing for the first time in
five weeks because of a rib injury, took triple bogey on his 17th hole and had a 76. • Kia Classic CARLSBAD, Calif. — Jane Park shot a bogeyfree 6-under 66 to take a one-stroke lead over Caroline Hedwall and Karrie Webb after the first round of the Kia Classic. Park, who lives in Rancho Cucamonga and went to UCLA, started on No. 10 and made the turn in 2 under at Aviara. After a par on No. 1, she birdied four of the next five holes. Stacy Lewis, playing her first round since taking over the No. 1 spot in the world from Yani Tseng, was four shots back after a 70. She is trying to win her third straight tournament. Tseng, the Kia Classic winner last year, was disqualified after oversleeping and missing her proam tee time Wednesday. • Malaysian Open KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — Thailand’s Kiradech Aphibarnrat shot a 7-under 65 to take the lead in the Malaysian Open lead before thunderstorms forced the suspension of the first round. Half the field was still on the course.
Last-second bucket keeps No. 3 Golden Eagles alive LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) — Vander Blue’s layup with one second left capped Marquette’s rally from a nine-point deficit and gave the third-seeded Golden Eagles a 59-58 victory over Davidson Thursday in the NCAA tournament. Blue and Jamil Wilson made consecutive 3-pointers to bring Marquette within 58-57 with 11 seconds left. The Golden Eagles then caught a huge break when De’Mon Brooks’ long inbounds pass went out of bounds at midcourt with 5.5 seconds left, providing another opportunity. Blue took full advantage after getting Wilson’s inbounds pass, driving left and finding room for the winning basket. He then sealed Marquette’s improbable win by stealing Davidson’s last-ditch inbounds pass at midcourt to set off a celebration among players and Golden Eagles fans at Rupp Arena. Blue scored seven of Marquette’s final 11 points to finish with 16. Wilson added 14 points as the Golden Eagles (24-8) won for the fifth time in six games and advanced to face Butler in Saturday’s third round. Jake Cohen’s 20 points led Davidson (26-8), who seemed in control leading 49-40 with 6½ minutes left. Butler 68, Bucknell 56 Andrew Smith had a double-double including a career-high 16 rebounds, Roosevelt Jones added 14 points and Butler made its free throws down the stretch to hold off upset-minded Bucknell. After trailing for most of the game, 11th-seeded Bucknell got back into it with a 19-2 second-half run. But after Joe Willman’s jumper cut Butler’s lead to 43-42 with 6:56 left, the Bison (28-6) went almost five minutes without scoring. Butler went 18-of-20 at the line in the last 4:43. Willman scored a careerhigh 20 points for Bucknell, but the Bison couldn’t overcome an off day by two-time Patriot League Player of the Year Mike Muscala. Bucknell’s all-time leading scorer had nine points, only the second time this season he’d failed to reach double figures. California 64, UNLV 61 SAN JOSE, Calif. — Allen Crabbe had 19 points and nine rebounds, reserve Robert Thurman scored all 12 of his points on dunks and 12th-seeded California held off UNLV. Buoyed by the crowd support of a strong contingent so close to Berkeley, the Golden Bears (21-11) held the Runnin’ Rebels (25-10) without a basket for more than 11 minutes in the second half. Cal turned a tie game into a nine-point lead during that stretch and withstood a late UNLV push for its first tournament win since 2009. The fifth-seeded Rebels rallied to within a point in the final seconds before missed free throws and a costly inbounds pass sealed the loss. • Midwest Regional Louisville 79, N. Carolina A&T 48 LEXINGTON, Ky. — Pay attention, No. 1s. This is how it’s done. Russ Smith scored 23 points and set a Louisville NCAA tournament record

Marquette guard Vander Blue (13) scores the gamewinning basket against Davidson forward Jake Cohen (15) in the final seconds of an NCAA tournament game Thursday in Lexington, Ky. with a career-high eight steals, and Peyton Siva had eight assists as the Cardinals demolished North Carolina A&T. Louisville finished with a season-high 20 steals as it forced the Aggies (20-17) into 27 turnovers. It was the 11th straight win for the Cardinals (30-5), who will play Colorado State or Missouri on Saturday. Rick Pitino and the Big East champions quickly ended a postseason run for the Aggies, who finally earned their first NCAA tournament win on Tuesday. Bruce Beckford led North Carolina A&T with 12 points. Michigan State 65, Valparaiso 54 AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — Derrick Nix had 23 points and a career-high 15 rebounds to help power third-seeded Michigan State past the 14th-seeded Crusaders in the Midwest Regional. The Spartans went on a 26-5 run in the first half to take control, and cruised to an easy victory. Michigan State (26-8) will play Memphis on Saturday when coach Tom Izzo’s Spartans will be shooting for a spot in the round of 16 for the fifth time in six years. The Crusaders (26-8) were no match for Michigan State in their first NCAA tourney in nine years. Erik Buggs scored 14 and Matt Kenney had 10 points for the Crusaders. Memphis 54, St. Mary’s 52 AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — Matthew Dellavedova’s 3pointer from the right wing missed everything as time expired, allowing sixth-seeded Memphis to hold on for a win over 11th-seeded Saint Mary’s. The Tigers (31-4) led by 15 in the first half but nearly gave the game away in the final seconds. With Memphis ahead 5449, Eividas Petrulis banked in a 3-pointer with 3.1 seconds to play. The Tigers then lost the ball when the Gaels’
Jordan Giusti deflected the inbound pass off Joe Jackson of Memphis and out of bounds. Saint Mary’s (28-7) was out of timeouts but had a chance to regroup while officials reviewed the previous sequence. It didn’t matter. Dellavedova, the career leader in scoring for Saint Mary’s, was able to get a shot off, but it didn’t come close to going in. It was the first win in the NCAA tournament for Memphis since 2009, when John Calipari was still coach. D.J. Stephens had nine points and eight blocks for Memphis, and Jackson had 14 points and seven assists. Brad Waldow scored 17 points to lead Saint Mary’s. Saint Louis 64, New Mexico St. 44 SAN JOSE, Calif. — Dwayne Evans scored 24 points, Cody Ellis added 12 points and fourth-seeded Saint Louis overwhelmed New Mexico State in the Midwest Regional. Playing through the death of Rick Majerus in December, Saint Louis reached another mark for its late coach. The Billikens (286) eclipsed the 1988-89 team’s school record of 27 victories. Evans shot 11 of 16 and finished a point shy of his career best to propel Saint Louis past 7-foot-5 New Mexico State freshman Sim Bhullar. The Billikens held Bhullar to four points, 11 rebounds and three blocks. Saint Louis plays Oregon on Saturday. Bandja Sy had 17 points and nine rebounds for the 13th-seeded Aggies (24-11), who shot just 28 percent. Oregon 68, Oklahoma State 55 SAN JOSE, Calif. — Damyean Dotson scored 17 points and Arsalan Kazemi added 11 points and 17 rebounds to help 12th-seeded Oregon extend a run that began in the Pac-12 tournament by beating fifth-seeded Oklahoma. Dominic Artis scored 13 points and helped frustrate
Oklahoma State star freshman Marcus Smart on the defensive end to give the Ducks (27-8) their first tournament win in six years. Smart came into the game with the hype of a top NBA prospect but was held to 14 points on 5 for 13 shooting for the Cowboys (24-9). • West Regional Gonzaga 64, Southern 58 SALT LAKE CITY — A March Madness warm-up turned into a great escape for Gonzaga. The Zags got pushed to the limit by Southern, pulling out a victory in the closing minutes to avoid becoming the first No. 1 seed to lose to a 16 in the NCAA tournament. Kelly Olynyk led the Zags (32-2) with 21 points. They play No. 9 Wichita State on Saturday. But it was a pair of 3pointers — one by Gary Bell Jr., the next by Kevin Pagnos — that staked the Bulldogs to a 62-58 lead only moments after the game was tied at 56 with 3:45 left. Derick Beltran had 21 points to lead Southern (2310) and his 14-foot baseline jumper tied it at 56. But the Jaguars from the Southwestern Athletic Conference didn’t make another field goal. No. 1 seeds are now 1130 against 16s. Wichita State 73, Pittsburgh 55 SALT LAKE CITY — Malcolm Armstead scored 22 points, Cleanthony Early added 21 and ninth-seeded Wichita State ousted Pittsburgh. Freshman Steven Adams led Pitt (24-9) with 13 points and 11 rebounds. Call Hall added 11 points for the Shockers (27-8). The Shockers forced Pitt into 15 turnovers and held the Panthers to 35 percent shooting, including 1 of 17 from 3-point range. Pitt’s leading scorer, Tray Woodall, missed his first four shots and finished with two points. He shot 1 of 12, including 0 of 5 from beyond the arc, with five turnovers. Arizona 81, Belmont 64 SALT LAKE CITY — Mark Lyons scored 23 points and sixth-seeded Arizona rolled past Belmont. The Wildcats (26-7) used their huge size advantage to shut down the Bruins (26-7), who are 0-6 in tourney games. Arizona held a 44-18 edge on the boards, outscored Belmont 36-18 in the paint, blocked five shots and outshot the Bruins from 3-point range. The Wildcats made 9 of 17 3-pointers, including a critical one from Solomon Hill with 4:40 remaining to stop an 11-2 Belmont run, and shot 57 percent overall. • South Regional Michigan 71, South Dakota 56 AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — Glenn Robinson III scored 21 points and Mitch McGary added 13 points and nine rebounds, helping fourth-seeded Michigan overcome a rough night for star Trey Burke. Burke made only two field goals and left the game briefly in the second half after a hard fall under the basket. The star point guard came back after that, but he finished with only six points.
