‘Lions and tigers and bears, oh my’ By Heather Barker For The Cabell Standard
The “Wizard of Oz” was recently brought to life by Cabell Midland’s musical theater class under the direction of teacher Leslie Riedel. “It was the standard ‘Wizard of Oz’ and there are layers of meaning,” Riedel said. “It’s about finding true friendship. The characters all have things lacking, and they’re searching for what they need, but they truly have what they need.” Students began preparing for this past weekend’s production in the middle of February. After all the roles were filled by Midland students, which were chosen by Riedel with the help from music teachers Tim James and Ron Caviani, a few spots remained open for younger kids to join in from around the community. “It was about mid-February when we finally secured the rights, and they mailed everything to us and got everyone

We had my son and some brothers and sisters of the cast who also wanted to come and join.”
Along with the theater class, several other classes at Midland lent a hand in the production process, including the theater class, the costume and makeup class, the stage craft, the orches-
Bridge named after Mayor Turman By Kelly Stadelman kelly@theputnamstandard.com
The Village of Barboursville City Council’s latest motion and vote caught Mayor Paul L. Turman Sr. by surprise. At its first meeting in April, the council unanimously passed a resolution naming the soccer bridge that crosses the CSX Railroad in Barboursville the “Mayor Paul L. Turman Sr. Bridge.” “I’m honored that they would do this,” Turman said. Council named the bridge after Turman because of the mayor’s service and dedication to the city and the Barboursville CommuSEE TURMAN ON PAGE 7

Gajtka: Prep sports memories not based on game results By Matt Gajtka matt@theputnamstandard.com
The 2014 Milton MotoX will open this weekend at the revamped track in the West Virginia Pumpkin Park.
Motocross races open at Milton MotoX The 2014 Milton MotoX season will open this Friday and Saturday to the sounds of twoand four-stroke engines, the smell of exhaust and the spectacle of racers soaring over custom jumps. The opening weekend kicks off with practice at 6 p.m. Friday and racing at 7 p.m. at the revamped track in the West Virginia Pumpkin Park. On Saturday practice starts at 5 p.m. and racing at 6. Promoter Ronnie Farmer is ready for his second season. "We're going to have a big opening weekend the 18th and 19th," he said. "If you have a dirtbike or quad and you want to ride, just show up and you'll have a big time." This year, riders will notice a widened track with different jumps that will pump the adrenaline in riders of all ages from beginner to advanced. "We have classes for everyone from five years old to 50," Farmer said. "Bikes from 50cc to 450cc can race." Racers can compete for $20
in the trophy classes and $30 for money classes throughout the season. There is a $10 gate fee for racers and guests. Children five and under are free. Farmer described Milton Moto as an experience like no other. "Racing is something that most people will never understand,” he said. “It's not just something to do on Friday nights and Saturdays, it's a way of life. Once you are in it, it's in your blood and once you make that first run, you can't stop. You smell that race fuel and you hear those bikes scream. It's music to your ears. It doesn't get better than this." Farmer loves watching kids grow to become faster and better. “It's exciting,” he said. “If you like riding and you like racing, you need to come to Milton.” Visit the website www.facebook.com/miltonmotocross for further details and a complete schedule of the 2014 season.
For as much as observers and fans naturally focus on results, that's not what I remember most about my own high school sports career. Those old feelings have gradually returned as I've immersed myself in the local prep scene this spring, driving around Putnam and Cabell counties to cover the region's young athletes. While following the game action has been interesting, my favorite aspect of the reporting so far has been seeing the players smile, laugh and generally enjoy each other's company. I've been struck by the spirit with which the kids have gone about their business on the area's fields, tracks and courts. That makes sense, because images of camaraderie are vivid when I recall my time on the golf, tennis and soccer teams more than a decade ago at Madonna High School in Weirton. Yes, the experience was more enjoyable when my Blue Dons played well, but the real fun of being on a team centered around spending time with some of my best friends in a non-academic setting. Playing a sport was an opportunity to express ourselves athletically and emotionally, even if we didn't fully grasp that at the time. We were becoming the people we will be for the rest of our lives, although much of that growth was happening unbeknownst to us. In fact, much of what I remember doesn't involve the details of a particular match or round. What has lasted more than a decade is what we shared: dumb jokes to ease pre-game nerves, celebratory meals afterward and trips to various burgs in the Northern Panhandle and eastern Ohio.
Midland softball players gather before the top of the fourth inning April 14 against St. Albans. Pictured from left to right are pitcher Kyla Shull, third baseman Tori Adkins, first baseman Sydney Maynard and second baseman Makayla Waugh. Furthermore, experiencing those moments helped bridge the gap between our different backgrounds. It didn't matter which grade school or middle school we attended, because we were all brought together by a common pursuit. I was reminded of that fact when speaking with Cabell Midland senior Alyssa Koontz following a recent game. "We all get along and make things happen," she said. "Half the team grew up playing in the Barboursville little league together, so we already had some chemistry, but then we fit in the people from Milton." Koontz described why most of my lasting impressions of prep sports are fond. There's something rewarding about spending
time with people who share your interests. Being a teenager or young adult can be lonely, as we try to figure out where we fit. I know I'm not alone in owing a debt to sports for helping me discover some big things about myself and how life works. Let's not forget that when we watch our sons, daughters, relatives and friends compete. Some take it more seriously than others, and there are varying standards of success depending on ability, work ethic and even the size of a school's enrollment. But there's one thing all the athletes have in common: they're looking for a place where they belong. As with most endeavors, the quality of the people you're with can make all the difference.

Velma’sView By Velma Kitchens The game must go on? I don’t usually have the opportunity to watch the “Today Show” but recently I saw a part of a recent episode. The people were discussing a major league baseball player who didn’t play in a game so he could be with his wife who was giving birth to their child. I didn’t realize that the baseball league gives three days off to the players for paternity leave, but I don’t think many of them take three days off, at least we don’t hear about it. Well, some hard-nosed sports people thought he should have looked in on his wife and baby and then headed out the door to the baseball field. I am not one of those, being a woman and all. I feel your husband should be with you unless he is in the military or half dead or just doesn’t care one way or the other. I don’t even

Most men, whether sports players or not, are usually with their wife when they give birth. And by the way, husbands were there from the very conception. A well-known hockey player, who is now retired said his wife had five children and he was not there for any of them as he was away playing hockey. He and his wife had an agreement beforehand and that was fine as long as both agree. But during an interview he said he regretted not being there when his children were born. I think the baseball player did the right thing by being with his wife. Don’t ever interfere with a husband and wife. You will not be the winner.

When any new town is formed, it usually starts with a church, school and general store. Then usually a doctor comes to serve and little by little a town is formed and grows. If you watch TV shows such as “Little House on the Prairie”, it sets a good example of olden days how the towns started. The church is a meeting place.

to attend church and visit with neighbors, relatives and friends. And what brings this meeting together? The Bible - to learn about God’s word, to learn His instructions on how we should live. So a dwelling place is built and all are welcomed to freely worship. But, it seems to me, in this century we are too busy to learn of His word - or we don’t agree on how the teaching is offered, or many other selfish reasons. We are so fortunate to have this freedom. There are still countries today where you are persecuted to show a Bible or have gatherings to study the word. Matthew; 18:20 - For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. We have so many nice churches all around us to serve our Father in, and so few people to fill them. It is a place for your

children to learn more than just Gods word. The variety of clubs and communication they offer can build your child’s character into something he or she will never forget in their lifetime. Think about this, spring is coming and a new beginning of seasons. It could be a new beginning for you to attend a church near you and thank God for your life and freedom to worship. You will not regret taking this chance. You will be welcomed by members of the church in any community. Lifelong friends are met and made at a church of your choice. A few weeks ago, Huntington native Jule Huffman (Mr. Cartoon) celebrated his 90th birthday and was honored for his past work on a local TV station. Many will remember, at the end of every show, he always reminded us to attend the church or synagogue of our choice. Good advice for all… and you’ll find, that it seems you always have more time the following week. Prayer: Teach us Our Father, in your word as we attend your church and fellowship with others. Amen

Christian's Sports Beat: The Herd returns for spring practice
By: Christian Deiss
The Marshall Thundering Herd football team has been conducting their spring football practice in Huntington to get ready for the upcoming season. Last month and this month at Joan C. Edwards stadium, the Marshall players have been training with coaching staff. A couple of Hurricane residents are coaches for the team, head coach Doc Holliday and offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Bill Legg. I asked Holliday how important spring practice is for his team, “This spring is really important because our expectations are extremely high and it’s important we don’t get complacent and become a better football team by the end of spring practice.” Coach Legg agreed, “Spring practice is when we get a chance to work on all of our techniques and our fundamentals and we get to look at some new concepts that we might run on offense or defense. In order to be the best player possible, you need to have the best technique and fundamentals that you can possibly have.” The annual Green and White Spring Game is scheduled for Saturday, April 26, and will feature Herd legends Chad Pennington and Byron Leftwich as coaches. Watching the team practice, while I was there, was former Herd great Aaron Dobson, now a receiver for the New England Patriots in the NFL. I wanted to know from the South Charleston native what he felt about the spring gathering when he was at Marshall, “Just going through spring ball gets you ahead, it gives you a jump before the regular season starts, helping you learn your playbook, getting comfortable with your players and coaches before the season starts.” Dobson is nursing an injured foot and was on crutches on the sidelines watching his former team practice. After winning the Military Bowl against the Maryland Terrapins last December, the outlook for this coming season is promising for the Herd and I wanted to know what the coaching staff is trying to accomplish
during spring practice. Coach Legg was very straightforward with his thoughts, “The players need to get better every day, there’s something that all of us can improve on, I as a coach have things I can improve on, they as players have things they can improve on, so our goal every day we go out there is to pick something that is not as good as you like for it to be and work at it really hard to get better.” Holliday mirrored Legg’s perspective, “I think as individuals we want to go out there and walk off the field every day a better player and as a team, walk off as a better football team. Just go out there every day, work hard and get that done.” The two coaches have known each other since growing up in Putnam County, Holliday in
Hurricane and Legg in Poca. Friendship is really important to me and I learned that it is also important to both coaches. Legg spoke about his friend: “Coach Holliday and I have known each other for a long time. We were acquaintances growing up because we are both from Putnam County - he is five years older than I am so we didn’t know each other real well, but then he was coaching when I was playing at WVU and I got to know him better there. We have pretty much been together ever since.” Holliday also likes working with his friend,. “We are both from Putnam County, and around here neighbors stick together.” Holliday’s first season as head coach of the Herd was 2010 and he brought Legg on-board the same season.

LIONS FROM PAGE 1 Oz movie produced in 1939, but was in some ways altered to work on stage, like scenery, length of the play and characters. “The jitterbugs are in the musical but not in the movie,” Riedel said. “It was actually cut from the movie and replaced with another scene.” To several students, this was an opportunity to express themselves and show the student body and community their talents. “It was a fantastic experience to cap off my senior year,” said senior Jared Ross, who played the Wizard of Oz. “It helped me to show everyone that I can perform in front of other people.” Riedel had many expectations for the play, and she feels that her students rose to the occasion and met them.
“My expectations were that they learn what it takes to put together a musical,” she said. “They learned how to work together with all the aspects and everything that takes to put together a production. With every performance, they got stronger, as with any production we do.” Though the final product looked well rehearsed, Riedel said the class met several challenges along the way but that they had fun doing it. “We could have used more rehearsal time, because snow days of course affected us,” she said. “Costume and makeup with this play is always a challenge because you’re trying to make someone silver and you’re making someone a lion and making a witch green.

He said the town’s collaboration with Marshall also was key to getting the tournament. “We held the opening cere-
mony in the football stadium,” he said. The Village of Barboursville has put together another proposal and hopes to host the Region I Championships again in the future. A ceremony naming the bridge will be held in May. Turman was born and raised in Cabell County. He graduated from Barboursville High School in 1959 and attended the Greenbrier Military School for a year. He then attended Marshall University and was a member of the football team. After graduating in 1964, he served as a captain and helicopter pilot in the U.S. Army.

He also helped secure funding for the bridge. Turman said his life’s work has been in bridge construction. His father helped construct bridges in the area, as did he. The Village of Barboursville put together a bid about 10 years ago to host the 2009 and 2010 US Youth Soccer Region I Championships, which features competition for boys and girls teams in the under-12 through under-19 age groups from 15 states. “But hosting the national tournament was tied to us getting a bridge across the railroad connecting all 16 of our soccer fields,” he said. “Otherwise it was

Midland softball rounding into form after blowout win By Matt Gajtka matt@theputnamstandard.com
Cabell Midland softball coach Jeanne Lunsford says her team lacks a true star. As the Knights demonstrated in a recent game, that's not necessarily a drawback. Eight Midland players reached base at least once and six drove in runs in an 8-0 victory over visiting St. Albans on Monday, April 14 at Paul Adams Field. The Knights scored all of their runs in the second inning, an outburst that included nine of their 11 total hits. The game was called after 4 1/2 innings due to the mercy rule, which made the well-rounded showing by the Midland offense all the more impressive. "We don't have that one outstanding player," said Lunsford, in her 17th year leading the program. "That can be good, because they all have to step up a bit and do it themselves. Sometimes the kids rely on that star player to pull them through the big games." Big games are a yearly tradition at Midland, which has won five Class AAA titles since 1995 in addition to several other deep postseason runs. With wins in 10 of 12 games, this year's team is certainly trending in the right direction as the playoffs approach. "We're getting better every day," Lunsford said. "We played a tough schedule at the beginning,
but (our record) is nothing to sneeze at." Indeed, three of Midland's losses came against regional powers Lincoln County, Spring Valley and Hurricane. That type of competition may have sharpened the Knights for games like Monday's, when they sent 13 batters to the plate in the decisive second inning. "We need a big inning in each game," senior catcher Alyssa Koontz said. "We all get along together and make things happen. No one (outside the team) thinks we can win, but we're trying to prove that we can. We're showing them." Koontz collected two hits in the second inning, including an RBI double. Second baseman Makayla Waugh delivered perhaps the most important moment of the breezy evening, slugging a two-out, two-run double that stretched the Knights' lead to 4-0. Jenna Marsh and Katie Kelly added two hits each for Midland, which has scored eight or more runs six times this season. "They were very aggressive," Lunsford said. "That's what we want from them. You don't want them to be timid. This time of year, you want aggression. Jump on the good pitches." St. Albans didn't get many hittable offerings from Midland pitcher Kyla Shull. The senior al-

The only hit against Shull was a slow infield single in the third. "My screwball was working for me," said Shull, who recently committed to play for West Virginia Tech in the fall. "That's my strikeout pitch, my go-to pitch." Although Shull turned in a starquality performance, the strength of Midland remains its depth. Six bench players saw action against

St. Albans, a liberal substitution pattern that aligns with Lunsford's coaching philosophy. "That's what we want to do," she said. "We want to give everybody an opportunity to play. I'm proud of some of the girls that came in...they made some good plays." Koontz concurred with her
coach. "I'm glad when everyone gets a chance to play,” she said. “You never know when someone's going to get hurt and you need a replacement." Following home games against Capital and Huntington, Midland will travel to Buffalo this weekend for the annual Best of the Best Tournament.
Plenty of offense as Hurricane outscores Cabell Midland 9-8 By Jack Withrow For The Cabell Standard
The scoreboard was lit up as Hurricane and Cabell Midland softball teams combined to score 17 runs in a matchup of Class AAA powers. In the end, the Redskins outscored the Knights 9-8 in eight innings. The Thursday, April 10 game featured six lead changes and a total of 32 hits. Hurricane took the first lead in the bottom of the first inning with a Courtney Rogers’
RBI single to right field that scored Cassi Sargent. It wouldn’t take long for Midland to get back even as the Knights’ Makalya Waugh (4 for 5, 5 RBI) singled home teammate Jaime Schussler in the top of the second. In the fourth inning Cabell Midland scored three runs, highlighted by Waugh’s two-run home run off the left-field foul pole to go up 4-1. The fourth inning also proved to be a big inning for the Redskins as they collected five hits off Knights’ starting pitcher Olivia

Canterbury and plated five runs to take a 6-4 lead into the fifth inning. After a double by Hurricane’s Amber Null (3-for-5) to start the bottom half of the fifth, Knights coach Jeanne Lunsford handed the pitching duties over to Abbie Tolbert. Hurricane touched Tolbert for two more hits and extended its lead to 8-4 at the end of the inning. Cabell Midland (8-4) showed why it is considered one of the top teams in the state as the Knights battled back in the top of the seventh inning. The Knights used four hits to plate four runs and tie it up at 8-8. Tolbert got out of the bottom half of the inning as Knights third baseman Tori Adkins snared a line drive off Addie Fullen’s bat and then doubled up Sargent with a throw back to first base. After nothing across for the Knights in the top of the eighth inning, Hurricane loaded the bases with three singles. With one out and Redskins catcher Katie Adams up to bat, pinch runner Kassie Strobel scored on a passed ball to give Hurricane the victory and extend its record to 10-0.

Midland boys track edges Winfield for victory at Point Pleasant A dominating relay performance paced the Cabell Midland boys track team to a narrow victory over Winfield in the Paul Wood Memorial at Point Pleasant on Saturday, April 12. Midland earned first-place finishes in the 4x100, 4x200, 4x400 and 4x800 relays, helping the Knights edge runner-up Winfield by three points for the crown. Andrew Hogue, Jesse Myers and Josh Ellis each competed in the 4x100 and 4x200, Daniel Jarrell ran in the 4x200 and 4x400, and Jeremiah Parlock contributed to the Knights' effort in the two longer races. Hogue and Myers are juniors, but Parlock, Jarrell and Ellis are sophomores. Underclassmen keyed a powerful Midland result in the 800meter run, too. Will Sheils and Parlock, both sophomores, finished first and second with freshman Jonathan Hathaway nabbing third. Sheils ran two laps around the track in 2:04.35. Midland runners took the top two spots in the 1600, as sophomore Nick Salmons (4:33.32) beat teammate Hathaway

Annual Easter egg hunt sees great turnout Trudy Black trudyblack@thecabellstandard.com
The crowd gathered early on Sunday afternoon for the annual Community Easter egg hunt held at April Dawn Park. Sponsored by Milton United Methodist, Milton Baptist and Milton Presbyterian churches, the event is in its fourth year. Children were assigned to appropriate age divisions - zero to four, five to seven and eight to 10. Eggs, 4,500 in all, were scattered throughout three ribbonedoff areas. After an opening prayer Milton Volunteer Fire Department sounded the “whistle to start.” Excited children began running here and there, gathering as many colored eggs as they could
hold. Those lucky enough to find a gold egg were thrilled to see a prize paper inside. Going to one of the tables, they received their surprise prize. Lynn Cartwright, pastor of Milton United Methodist Church, said, "We certainly appreciate the cooperation of churches in our area. This is a great turnout. A wonderful way for families, especially children, to enjoy an afternoon of fun." Along with the egg hunt, children could enjoy a photo with the Easter bunny, face painting, balloon animals and popcorn. More than 300 were in attendance. Gwen Reed coordinated the activities and New Heights Church, Milton, provided live music for the afternoon.
Children, and parents, run to gather multi-colored eggs at the Milton Community Easter egg hunt at April Dawn Park.
Children in age division 0-4 ran as fast as their little legs would take them while gathering as many Easter eggs as their little hands could hold.
Kim Graham of Milton brought her two-year-old grandson Hunter Sexton to the hunt. She was joined by Zoey Adkins and her mother Heather. Hunter (left) and Zoey are resting before the hunt.
This little egg hunter found one egg after another.
Participants make a made dash to find the golden eggs containing special prize tickets.
