As the 911 address change sweeps through the county, local business owners are showing concern. The first round of letters requesting address changes hit Leon, Buffalo and Culloden in September then moved on to Winfield, Poca and Scott Depot in December. Countless businesses line Teays Valley Road from Scott Depot to Hurricane. Owners made their voices heard during a special meeting with Putnam County commissioners and 911 representatives on Feb. 4. One by one, they showed signs of fear, apprehension and reluctance. "We are accessible and we are easy to find," said Cindy Skiles, president of Teays Physical Therapy Center. "It's difficult to run a profitable business in this economy. Please don't put this on our bottomline." Glenn Yeager of Yeager Insurance and Financial Services echoed her remarks. His business has been on Teays Valley Road since 2008. Yeager is concerned about what the address change could cost him. "To change websites, ads, stationeries and signage, we're looking at between $8-to-$10,000" he said. "This is just an unneeded expense - to damage the businesses we have. It's crazy, and we SEE CHANGES ON PAGE 7

A tribute to a warrior, Bryan Frampton A blog post by Texas ATM Assistant Coach Bob Starkey I’ve been working on this post for over two months. It’s the most difficult thing I’ve had to post. They say the hardest thing for a parent to do is to have to bury one of their children. The same can hold true for a coach. The silent ageless oak tree, the river running strong, the mountain set against the sky, the sweet melodic song.* I’ve heard that coaches shouldn’t have favorites. As someone that has coached for three decades, I can tell you that simply isn’t possible. We all have our favorites. It doesn’t mean that we don’t SEE FRAMPTON ON PAGE 7

Water is top issue during this legislative session By George Hohmann For The West Virginia Press Association

CHARLESTON, WV - Leaders of the state legislature agree, as House Minority Leader Tim Armstead put it: “The water issue obviously has become one of the central - if not the central - issues of this session.” Senate President Jeff Kessler, DMarshall; Senate Minority Leader Mike Hall, R-Putnam; House Speaker Tim Miley, D-Harrison; and Armstead, R-Kanawha, all spoke about the ongoing water issues in a nine-county area during the West Virginia Press Association’s 2014 Legislative Breakfast. Armstead, Kessler and Miley agreed that Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin made the right decision on Feb. 5 when he announced water quality sampling will be done in homes in the area affected by the Jan. 9 chemical spill in the Elk River. The spill contaminated West Virginia American Water’s system, which serves 300,000 people. Hall said, “We ought to go as far as we can and spend as much money as we need to get our citizens satisfied. If our citizens stay up in arms about this and push back, it will affect tourism, it will affect business, it will affect this region. I will stand with the President and the Governor and advocate whatever it takes to get it established that everything is safe here and the citizens are assured of that fact because if we can get over this bump, I believe there’s nothing but good for the future.” Kessler said, “People want to know if the water in their homes is safe. Not if it’s safe in the hydrants or at the intake down at the plant - they want to know when it comes in their homes and they turn on their spigot if it’s

safe.” It costs about $675 to do a water test in a residence, Kessler said. For probably less than $50,000 to $75,000, random testing could be done in a representative sample of homes “and we know would definitively…whether those samples come back clean and if they come back clean…I think that would go a long way toward reducing the public anxiety and level of mistrust that the water’s safe,” he said. “I’m glad to see the governor appears to be going down that line now. “The big problem we have as public officials is to restore the public’s trust that the water is safe.” Hall said he recently viewed a presentation by Michigan tourism officials about that state’s image campaign, “Pure Michigan.” He said the experts are saying it will take one and a half to three years for West Virginia to overcome the negative image created by the water disaster. “The economic development office tells me you can’t even quantify the millions of dollars of negative that’s happened around the country,” he said. “I agree with my friends with tourism that we probably ought to begin to look at what some other states have done with this type of advertising like ‘Pure Michigan.’ Utah is doing it, the state of New York is doing it. When they had the Gulf Coast disaster with the oil spill, nobody wanted to go to the gulf. You began to see, although you don’t see them anymore, but you began to see these commercials that were done. “The tourism industry is telling me that we’ve had these trade-off sort of grants for individual business. They’re willing to give that

Senate Minority Leader Mike Hall, R-Putnam told members of the West Virginia Press Association that the state government needs to go as far as they can in regards to the water issues and spend as much money as they can to get citizens satisfied. up in order to promote the entire state without promoting an individual business. That’s not a partisan issue. That’s just West Virginia.” Armstead said, “In my 16 years in the legislature I don’t know that I’ve seen quite the crisis of confidence that I see as a result of this water crisis. It’s a crisis of confidence in our water system. It’s also a crisis of confidence in our government. It’s a crisis of confidence in our everyday life, to a large degree. He added, “We have work to do on other issues that will go a long way to send the message to the rest of the country and the world that West Virginia is a place you would like to come live, that you would want to do business here and employ people here.” Kessler said the state budget is the other big issue consuming much of the legislature’s time. “This year it’s cut and shift, like a running back … borrowing from

Peter to pay Paul.” This year and next are forecast to be the state’s lean budget years, he said. Kessler has high hopes that the legislature will create a “Future Fund,” which would save some natural gas severance tax revenue for future use. If the legislature had set aside one percent of the severance tax starting in 1975 and earned 10 percent on the money, “we would have nearly $8 billion today,” he said. If the state had that money and earned 10 percent a year - it would have $800 million a year to invest in roads, raise teacher pay or eliminate the equipment inventory tax, Kessler said. Hall said the voters made a great decision in 2000 when they approved an amendment to the state constitution allowing the Investment Management Board to invest pension money in stocks. Until then, investments were limited to bonds. “That was a multibillion-dollar right decision,” he

said. Miley, who became House speaker in June, said he has placed an emphasis on getting along. He promised the water legislation that emerges from the House will be the product of bipartisan efforts. He said the House Small Business, Entrepreneurship and Economic Development Committee, which he created, will conduct a “listening tour” in upcoming weeks to hear small business success stories, to learn about concerns, and to find out what can be done to help create jobs. The tour’s first stop was from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Feb. 11 at the Gaston Caperton Center, 501 W. Main St., Clarksburg. The second will be from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Feb. 17 in the Shawkey Room of the Memorial Student Center at Marshall University, Huntington. Other stops will include Charleston, Lewisburg, Beckley and Logan County, Miley said. Armstead said the Republicans envision building a foundation for the state that addresses election issues like those seen in southern West Virginia; makes changes in purchasing procedures; and tightens government ethics rules. He envisions building four walls on the foundation: The tax structure, the education system, the infrastructure, and the legal climate. “Those are the four walls we need to work on and build to move our economy forward.” A bill that would close some of the loopholes in the state’s Freedom of Information Act will be introduced soon, Armstead said. “We still have a need for more openness in our government,” he said. “Openness in government is good for government.” The breakfast was on Feb. 6 at the Marriott.

Sugar Shak now open in Barboursville, draws crowds By Justin Waybright For The Putnam Standard

Rich cupcakes, warm apple pies, tasty sugar-flaked ham sandwiches and belly-filling bacon cheeseburgers...Yum. Hungry yet? Barboursville's newest business, the Sugar Shak Bakery and Cafe offers a variety of options to satisfy the biggest appetite. From custom desserts to made-fromscratch sandwiches, the cafe and bakery shop has it all. The menu offers more than 40 items, ranging from $1.50 to $8.95. Appetizers, hotdogs, salads, wraps, quesadillas, hamburgers, subs and sandwiches make up the list. The Brady Street business has

only been open two weeks, but already, it's drawing crowds. During lunchtime hours, local men and women flock to the Sugar Shak, anticipating delicious meals. Owners Barbara and Richard Parker couldn't be happier. "Every day it gets better and better," Barbara said. "Having people love it and wanting to come back for more is a nice feeling." Richard agreed. "Everyone's welcomed us with open hands," he said. "It's been great so far." What separates Sugar Shak from many other bakeries and cafes? Answer: freshly made meals and desserts. Even the salad dressing is made from scratch.

"I've done this all my life - for about 38 years - it's my passion," Richard said. "It's been so good to us, and I just wouldn't do anything else." Barbara enjoys combining her love for desserts with her husband's love for meals. Together, they create one-of-a-kind dishes. "I've always wanted a bakery, and he likes the food part, so we combined both," she said. "In Barboursville, there's not a whole lot of places to eat without having to go out on Route 60, so when this place became available, we just couldn't pass it up - it's a wonderful community with nice people - we knew we couldn't go wrong." The Parkers owned Vintage Peach, a diner in Myrtle Beach, SC. They ran the business there

for 12 years before deciding to move back to the Mountain State to be closer to their grandchildren. Judging by the amount of traffic to the Sugar Shak in the past two weeks, the move was worth it. "I think we'll be very successful here," Richard said. Sugar Shak opened in late January, but already, the Parkers eye a bright future for their business. "We've discussed making ice cream in the summertime," Barbara said. "With the pool around the corner and the kids in the area, it could be a good thing." Sugar Shak Bakery and Cafe is at 640 Brady St. To place orders, call (304) 544-6021. For more information, visit sugarshakbakeryandcafe on Facebook.

Commission loans money to board, discusses addressing By Kelly Stadelman kelly@theputnamstandard.com

The Putnam County Commission continues to provide financial support to the Board of Health. Commissioners also discussed the 911 addressing of business and homes in the county, which continues to cause concern among many. A special commission meeting is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 20, to further discuss addressing with area businesses and residents. Commissioner Andy Skidmore said that the county’s rapid growth is one source of the problem. “It hasn’t been a smooth process,” he said. “We are trying to work with area businesses and residents to smooth it out.” Commissioner Joe Haynes echoed Skidmore’s comments and said the commission has had several meetings and plans to

have more. “We can’t get the post office folks to attend,” he said. “We are all in the same boat and will do the best we can.” During Tuesday’s meeting the commission also unanimously approved to loan the Putnam County Board of Health an additional $15,000. “We need an additional loan from the county in order to satisfy the IRS requirements,” Director Lolita Kirk said. “We have obligations we have to meet.” Skidmore explained that the board of health has set up a payment plan with the IRS. “A lot of business owners were willing to delay, but there are some we need to pay,” he said. With the additional money, the Putnam County Board of Health debts total $180,000. Of that total, $65,000 is owed to the county. Next, County Clerk Brian Wood told commissioners that his office is gearing up for the May 13 pri-

mary election and testing the equipment. “Our (equipment) looks good,” he said. “But this budget year I’m going to ask you to set aside some money. When the timing is right and the price is right we can upgrade to a new system.” He said the county will use touch screens this year at the polling places. “We have extra machines if one goes down,” he said. Voter registration deadline for the primary election is Tuesday, April 22. Early voting will start April 30 and run through May 10. “May 7 is the deadline for absentee requests,” he said. “On election day the polls will be open from 6:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.” In other business: * The Putnam County Parks and Recreation Board is turning control of the Putnam County Park in Eleanor back to the town. "It belonged to the town but was leased to the county," Haynes said. "We put it to a vote last week and will return it to Eleanor.” Haynes said the parks board appointed a committee to study the park last year. “The town has a bigger vision for the future of the park,” he said. “It’s a win-win for the people of Putnam County.” He said the county and the town will jointly operate the park until the end of the fiscal year or the end of the pool season. “The town of Eleanor will continue to work with the fair board,” he said. “This move also frees up some of our park funds.”

Haynes noted that the 200-acre park always has to be a park. “If it ever stops being used as a park the land reverts back to original owner,” he said. * The commission approved the Putnam County Sheriff’s Department’s Juvenile Accountability Grant application for a Prevention Resource Officer at Poca High School. The grant is $60,000 a year. “If we get this grant it will fund 100 percent the first three years,” Sheriff Steve Deweese said. “After that it would be an 80/20 grant. The 20 percent can be matching funds.” If approved the PRO officer would be a new position in the sheriff’s office. “We’ve had an increase in truancy cases in the county,” he said. “This officer would be assigned to Poca High School but be able to assist at the Career and Technical Center, too. By having an officer at the school it is a deterrent to a shooter.” * Heather Vanater, Putnam County economic project director, provided commissioners with an update on the Development Authority activities. She said the office has received four grants in the past year. Two of the grants were for professional development, one is for marketing and one for industrial road access. “Also during the past six months we have been working hard on 16 leads,” she said. “Four of the leads are for manufacturing, four for retail, four for sup-

port organizations and four for logistics.” The commission unanimously approved the resolution designating the Putnam County Development Authority as the authorized development authority for the county. The organization needed this resolution in order to submit a proposal for Local Economic Development grant. * The Solid Waste Authority set a tentative date of April 5 for spring cleanup day. * Commissioners approved the following board reappointments: Patricia Schiffour and Duke Jordan to the Putnam County Planning and Zoning Appeals Board, and David Hofstetter, Tom Hankins and Barbara Reed to the Planning Commission. The commission also approved Tony Hodges and Robert Stonestreet as alternates to the county's zoning board. * The Putnam County Convention and Visitors Bureau is seeking a new executive director. Current Executive Director Linda Bush is retiring. * The commission also approved the following grant resolutions: $8,000 for the Putnam County Library (water repair and children books); $13,636 for Records Management Preservation Grant; $2,000 for the Putnam County Fair Board (EMS building); $1,000 for Putnam Literacy (supplies); $3,000 for Tri-County YMCA (bleachers); $10,172 for the Putnam County Sheriff’s Department (mobile repeaters).

The West Virginia Department of Education confirmed that Buffalo High School's water system has a non-detect level of MCHM. It was one of five West Virginia schools that achieved a non-detect level after a re-flush and retest of systems. These five schools join the nearly 100 schools where testing has resulted in non-detect readings at the more rigorous screening limit. The West Virginia National Guard, last week, began a round of testing on public and private schools. Six schools were highlighted by the round of testing. The six schools in Kanawha, Lincoln, Clay and Putnam counties were well below the U.S. Centers for Disease Control’s (CDC) recommended level, but were not yet at the more rigorous screening level that the state’s interagency team was directed to achieve by Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin beyond the CDC guidelines. The five schools that were reflushed and re-tested during the weekend and now fall below both

the CDC recommendation and Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin’s directive are: Buffalo High School in Putnam County; George Washington High School, John Adams Middle School and Andrew Heights Elementary School In Kanawha County; and H.E. White Elementary in Clay County. The WVDE is awaiting another set of results for Lincoln County High School. “I hope these latest results provided by the National Guard will help assure parents, students and teachers that our schools are safe,” said West Virginia Superintendent of Schools Jim Phares. “The results that are in for the impacted schools meet all standards. As always, student learning and student safety are priorities and I must commend our local superintendents for their quick and diligent work with health officials and the National Guard.” This second round of flushing took place to achieve a non-detect level below 10 parts per bil-

lion, which is 100 times more rigorous than the 1 part per million screening level provided by the CDC for protecting public health. Governor Earl Ray Tomblin directed the National Guard to test public and private schools to confirm the water meets this more rigorous standard to provide an additional level of assurance. The more rigorous standards are also approved by the CDC for pregnant women. During the water crisis, county school systems partnered with the West Virginia Bureau of Public Health and the National Guard to make sure each of their schools met the safe criteria for water consumption. Schools with additional questions or concerns are being asked to contact the West Virginia Bureau of Public Health at (304) 3564121. For more information, contact Liza Cordeiro in the WVDE Communication Office at (304) 5582699 or (304) 807-6988.

Noah Frampton is just one of a host of players at Poca this season who are contributing in really big ways. Frampton really stood out in a come-from-behind win at Chapmanville on Feb.1. Down eight Frampton ignited the Dots, hitting four 3-point baskets in the second half, netting five for the game to total 17 points and six assists. “They came out in the first half and really outplayed us but we regrouped in the second half and were able to work together to find a way to win,” he said. “I just trusted in my teammates, got open a few times and knocked one (3-point shot) down. Then I hit another one and got some confidence and I just started shooting more and ended up making them.” Coach Allen Osborne added, “Noah came out in the second half and started to hit some shots. We made some free throws down the stretch and found a way to win.” The Dots have only one blemish on their record this year and hope to only add notches to the win column from here on out. “We’ve only lost one game, and our goal is to win out so we can get the best seed possible in the state tournament in the Civic

forts both on and off the court. “Noah is our third leading scorer and plays really well on the defensive side of the ball,” he said. “He’s one of 4 or 5 guys we’ve got that are very unselfish and work hard every day. More than that he is an outstanding individual, student, a leader on and off the court and is well respected by his teammates and peers.” St. Albans High School girls basketball team has been a strong competitor in Kanawha Valley in this season. Propst, a junior, is this week’s female gamer of the week. She is a factor in this team’s success. She started as a freshman and has not looked back since. She averages 13 points a game along with multiple rebounds, steals

Center,” Frampton said. Frampton credits his teammates for all of the success this year. “It makes things a lot easier when you have so much contribution from multiple guys,” he said. “It really takes the pressure off of any one person and allows everybody to play loose and relaxed. When we’re playing at our best, we’re passing the ball and running in transition. We try to get out fast in transition, pass the ball around and look for open shots before the defense can get set.” Frampton also credits his team’s success to all the hard work they put in this offseason. “We all came in during the offseason and worked our butts off to try to get better because we knew that all the other teams were going to be doing the same thing,” he said. It doesn’t take long to realize what an exceptional person Frampton is, especially with all he and his mother, Becky Frampton, have been through with the recent passing of his father, Bryan Frampton. He says he draws strength and motivation during practice and games to give it everything he’s got for both God and his father. “God has blessed me with the ability to play sports and has given me the work ethic I need to come in every day and try to be the best I can possibly be,” he said. “Pleasing God, as well as my dad, gives me all the motivation I need to come in every day and work as hard as I can.” Coach Osborne was also quick to commend his player for his ef-

and blocks. She brings experience to a young St. Albans team who only has one senior. This is her third year receiving this award. Her best performance came in a 55-52 lose to Hurricane where Propst scored 21 points and grabbed 12 rebounds, however. “I feel I have been playing pretty well,” she said. “My coaches have been pushing and encouraging me a lot which I think is really helping,” When asked if there had been anything she has done differently to improve her game from previous years, Propst responded, “I have learned some new post moves and focused on improving my ball handling.” Coach Scott James has seen Propst develop as a player from

her freshman year and is confident she has what it takes to play at the next level. “She is a complete all around player and she is really starting to get in her groove right now,” he said. “She anticipates very well on defense which leads to several steals, blocks and rebounds. I feel she is one of the most talented players in the area.” The team has a current record of 11-4. Propst says that defense needs to be a consistent point in the Dragons game but they also need to work on getting into their offenses and running plays. Propst said that the encouragement from her coaches and parents are the biggest motivators for her in basketball. “All of them have been giving me talks, pushing me to work harder and stay focused,” she said. “They remind me that I could play ball in college if I continue to work for it. I don’t think I would be doing as well as I am without that extra push.” Propst is not sure where she would like to play ball in college but has decided to study physical therapy wherever she goes. Currently she has a 3.8 GPA. She is the daughter of Greg and Jennifer Butler. Look for other local area high school athletes to be named next week’s female and male gamer of the week sponsored by Teays Physical Therapy Center Inc.

Christian's Sports Beat: Monster invasion in the mountain state

By: Christian Deiss

CHARLESTON, WV - Usually when I go to a sporting event I don’t wear ear plugs so I can hear all of the action taking place. Earlier this month my ear plugs came in handy when I went to the Monster Jam Truck event at the Charleston Civic Center where I got to meet and talk with two of the drivers that were competing - Pablo Huffaker, driver of Grave Digger and Aaron Basl, driver of Wolverine. I have always wanted to be a monster truck driver when I grow

up because it looks like a lot of fun. So I wasn’t surprised to find out how much fun Huffaker has behind the wheel, “It’s probably the best job in the world. I’m 50+ years old and I have never had to grow up. I’ve been playing with big trucks all my life and for the last 32-years I’ve been driving monster trucks - it’s fun every time I go out.” Basl agreed, “It’s like the best job in the world. It’s what I always wanted to do. I get to drive Wolverine and I get to work on the Grave Digger truck. I have the best of both worlds.” Besides driving Wolverine, Basl also serves as Huffaker’s crew chief. I asked Huffaker how he became a driver, “In the early 80’s I had a four-wheel drive shop and my partner and I built a monster truck to promote the business. After three-months of driving the truck, we sold the shop and 32years later I’m still driving a monster truck.” Basl’s opportunity came along when he was a teenager, “I got into driving monster trucks back

TheSkinny www.tri-countyymca.org Selecting a workout that works for you A big barrier to fitness could be actually selecting an exercise program. With so many options, it can be confusing and intimidating. Yoga, strength training, cardio, the choices are many. With that said, here are some suggestions on how to come to a decision on what is best for you when putting together an exercise program. Step One is to evaluate your current fitness level and determine how fit you are to best match up a program that will meet your needs. What would

you assess? Some suggestions include pulse rate before and after walking 1 mile; how long it takes to walk 1 mile, the number of pushups you can complete in a certain period of time, waist circumference and your BMI. It may be best to contact a local health facility that has staff available to provide an assessment. Step Two is to evaluate any health issues. If you are over the age of 50, have not exercised or have any chronic medical conditions that could pose a health risk - it is very important to consult a physician before starting a program to make sure it is bene-

when I was in high school growing up in Salem, Oregon. I have a twin brother, Daron, who drives the Nitro Hornet. We had truck and tractor pullers when we were little. When we competed at carnivals there were also monster trucks there. Being behind the scenes after the show, we got to talk to the drivers and work on the trucks. We got hooked.” Most people think of athletes as football, baseball or soccer players. But after seeing monster truck drivers in action I consider them athletes and both drivers agreed with me, “You have to be in pretty good shape to drive one of these trucks because your body takes a pretty good pounding when you are inside the truck. Plus you’re pushing around 600-pound tires - so you better be in shape,” says Basl. Huffaker also says it’s important to be in shape, “It takes a lot of endurance. For me, I try to keep myself fit because there is a lot of stress while driving the truck due to all the jumping around that we do inside the cab. I try to keep ficial. Other factors such as flexibility and endurance also play a big role in this decision. Step Three is to determine goals for yourself. Why do you want to exercise? Is it to lose weight? Train for a race? Increase stamina and endurance? Answering those questions and having clear goals can help with staying motivated once an exercise program is determined. Make sure that any exercise program you select complements your goals and physical ability. In the long run, your body and mind will thank you!

Cancer may have finally took Bryan, but I promise you it was exhausted after the battle. After a great career at Poca High School, Bryan felt the need to compete at a higher level. He joined the United State Navy. It was during his tenure with the Navy that his first battle with cancer occurred - one that forced doctors to amputate his right leg. No problem for Bryan. Remove it and let’s move on. Move on he did. Securing a job, getting married and raising a family of three boys, Nathaniel, Noah and Luke. Noah and Luke now carry on the Frampton tradition at Poca High School playing for Allen. Once, when Coach Osborne was looking into purchasing a shooting machine for the team, Bryan asked if he could take the brochures home with him. He later called Allen and of course Bryan had picked out the most expensive machine for his boys urging Allen to purchase the one with the computer digital read out. When Allen told Bryan it was the most expensive, he replayed a message he had learned playing for Allen: “It always cost a little more to be the best.” Bryan continued to be a great fan of the game, encouraging his sons to play and becoming a loyal supporter of the University of Kentucky Wildcats. Now the thing you have to know about Bryan is that God has never placed a more loyal soul on this earth than Bryan Frampton. In Bryan’s heart there was the University of Kentucky and then there were the enemies. A few years ago Bryan had a pain in his shoulder. For the longest time he shrugged it off. That’s what warriors do. Finally, upon seeing a doctor and going through tests, it was discovered that he had a new battle with cancer - this time the cancer stretched from his lungs up into his shoulders. The cancer was aggressive and wide-spread. Bryan Frampton was aggressive also - he was a warrior. As doctors worked with Bryan, they also looked at some of the best facilities in the nation to send him for additional help such as M.D Anderson in Houston, the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota and the Duke Cancer Center in Durham, North Carolina. Please remember our earlier passage about Bryan’s strong love for his Kentucky Wildcats

and his amazing loyalty. He quickly informed the doctors that he would not be going to Duke. He was always quick to inform anyone that “you can’t spell Duke without UK.” Such was Bryan Frampton. The oak may be cut down, and the river may run dry, the song will end, the storm will break, but a warrior will never die.* Bryan was also an active outdoorsman despite having only one leg. He loved to fish and he loved to hunt - and he loved doing both with his sons. One day, while out weed-eating, he fell and broke his hip. The doctors encouraged him not to repair the hip because the surgery was too complicated and could be fatal because of what he was going through in his cancer treatments. Sorry, said Bryan. We’re doing the surgery. “Gotta hunt and fish with my boys.” Today, both Luke and Noah are playing at Poca - one of the top teams in the state. Now let’s talk about the love a coach has for his player - after they have played. Allen would often go over to Bryan’s home last year with game films so Bryan could watch his sons play. Allen and Bryan would of course critique the videos - that's what competitors do. The cancer was taking its toll at that point and he was often so sick he could not attend games. (On his blog, http://hoopthoughts.blogspot.c om/, you will see a shot his son Noah hit to win a game - another game Bryan was unable to attend. I would tell you that it looks similar to the shot Christian Laettner hit to beat his beloved Kentucky but Bryan would not want it described that way). As the Poca Dots play through the remaining part of their season, Noah and Luke take turns wearing #34 in honor of their father. I believe strongly that the best way to honor the passing of a loved one is by the life that you live. Bryan’s sons certainly have some big shoes to fill - but with dad’s DNA flowing through them I’m going to bet that they are going to be competitors, hard workers, great husbands and fathers. Such was Bryan Frampton. Their memory lives on, eternal; their spirit guides us through; their courage gives us hope: brave warriors, ever true.* *From "A Warrior's Heart" Poem by Gonflet.

FRAMPTON FROM PAGE 1 love all of our players and that we don’t give them all our very best. We want them all to succeed. But there are those whose kindred spirit inspires us, the teacher. Such was Bryan Frampton. As a coach you work hard not just to teach your student-athletes how to pass, shoot and screen. You want to lay a foundation that will last them for the rest of their life. You want them to learn about teamwork, commitment, and sacrifice. When they leave your program they should understand goal development and time management. There is nothing greater for a coach then to see that player 10 years removed and they are successfully navigating through life...raising a family...holding down a job...making a positive contribution to society. Such was Bryan Frampton. Every once in a while, you have the privilege of coaching a young person who lives just as they played. Giving life every bit as much as they did the game of basketball on the court. The type of person that leaves a legacy on the program they participated with, as well as a legacy in life to his family and friends. Such was Bryan Frampton. I only coached Bryan for one year which speaks to the impact he had on me as a coach. I was between college coaching stops at West Virginia State College and Marshall University when I had the opportunity to work for my junior high school coach and mentor Allen Osborne at Poca High School. In that one season, I learned more about teaching and coaching than any other stop I’ve had in my professional career - Allen is that good! But we also had a special team. For those that coach you already know that special team translates to special people. But I’ve never coached a special team that didn’t have at least one warrior. That one player that took it personal not just on game night, but at every practice, in every drill. Such was Bryan Frampton. The storm that rages wildly, the faith that never alters, cannot compare with a warrior's heart for his heart's strength never falters.* Bryan passed away Dec. 1 of 2013 after a long battle with cancer. And when I say battle, I mean it in the warrior’s sense.

Business leaders gather to discuss how address changes may affect local businesses. CHANGES FROM PAGE 1 won't be able to afford it." Elizabeth Yeager Cross agreed. Her business Yeager Design and Interior has been in Scott Depot for only four months, and she's worried the address change could negatively affect her. "We've already spent money on signage," Cross explained. "With the address change, I'm a brand new business. I can't afford this and will have to shut my doors." After hearing concerns from several business owners, Putnam Office of Emergency Management Director Frank Chapman addressed the audience. "We're looking at re-addressing the entire county, and the biggest problem we have in all this is the U.S. Postal Service," he explained. "The project should have been done three years ago, but they sat on the information. They called us in November and told us they were going to change addresses in Putnam County. People started getting bills with different addresses before we even knew about it." Chapman continued, "In Hurricane, people got letters from the post office about the address change, then they sent another letter saying 911 screwed up and there is no address change. This caused such confusion." The situation began in 2003 when the county commissioners adopted an ordinance to meet national and state standards for addressing. It was all in an effort to streamline residents and businesses for ambulances in emergency situations. During the past three months, the plan backfired, Chapman said. "You have addresses with "A"

and "B" and the system detects that and kicks it out,” he said. “At some point you're going to have to change these addresses. They'd already be done if the post office was doing their job. “We've invited the post office to come out, but they won't. They have done us no favor, but cause a lot of pain." Chapman said his office answers hundreds of voicemails and phone calls every day, and has since the problem arose in November. Marty Chapman is the president of the Putnam County Chamber of Commerce. His organization aims to help prosper local business and economy. Chapman is concerned about his members, more than 500, many of which are local business owners. "The more established businesses might able to withstand this, but the smaller or newer businesses may not," he said. "With property taxes going up and fire fees going up, here's another thing hitting businesses, and they can't foot the bill for everything." Chapman stands behind Putnam County business owners. "We'll do everything we can to protect them," he said. "It's our job to create an environment where they can be successful, and what we do is fight issues like this." The Putnam County Commission will hold a special meeting featuring an one item agenda to decide what action to take regarding address changes. The meeting is scheduled at 7:30 p.m. Thursday Feb. 20 at the courthouse. It is open to the public.

Lady Generals defeat Lady Dots again By Kelly Stadelman kelly@theputnamstandard.com

Balanced scoring and solid defense helped the Winfield Lady Generals hold off a second half surge by the Poca Lady Dots. “We are getting better at knowing who needs to go where on the floor,” Winfield’s Karley Rogers said. “We knew they wanted the game, but so did we.” The cross-county girls game is always intense and exciting. Earlier this season the game went into triple overtime before Winfield won by two points, 54-52. The matchup on Feb. 5 didn’t need any extra time but was just as stimulating as the first meeting. The Lady Generals got off to a fast start, scoring 32 points in the first half to the Dots 20 points. Poca’s Kendal Sayre had 16 of her 24 points in the first half. “The first half was pretty rough,” the junior said. “We were able to get back in the game in the second half.” The Lady Dots were unable to overcome the deficit from the first half, however, even though they held Winfield to seven points in the third quarter and 10 points in the fourth. “Winfield is a good team,” Poca Coach Kenny Sayre said. “I was proud of our team. They didn’t let the first half get them down. They

Poca’s Harley Hutchins’ back-toback 3-pointers and free throws by Casey Skeens in the fourth quarter helped narrow the gap. “I was going to drive but coach said to shoot,” said Hutchins, who finished the game with 10 points. “So I did the same thing the second time and it went in again.” With less than a minute to go, the Dots narrowed the margin to three points. “With three games in three days we didn’t want this game to

go into overtime,” Winfield’s Chelsea Kirby said. “We knew they were keying in on Haylea (Roberson), and so the team stepped up and helped her out.” The Lady Dots sent the Lady Generals to the line, and they made their foul shots when it mattered, winning 52-49. It was the third victory for Winfield Coach Tim Toler’s team in three days. “I thought we played really well in the first half,” he said. “I was afraid of fatigue in the second half, but the girls kept us in the game and knocked down shots.” Kirby was the leading scorer for

Roberson, Rachel Kraschnewski and Emily Moore each had six points. As the teams come into the final weeks of the regular season, both have elements to work on. For Winfield the team will work on defense, getting experience for younger players and posting up. “We are going to work on getting easy baskets,” Rogers said. For Poca it’s about increasing the confidence of young players and getting experience. One

player who has gained experience this year is freshman point guard Skeens. “I know that I have to set the tone for the team,” she said. “We all just try to help each other. I am seeing the court better and let the others know where everyone is and where they need to go.” Coach Sayre said the team has had a lot of close games this season. “The girls never give up,” he said. “We may not be the biggest, but we play with heart.”

Winfield runs out of gas against George Washington By Brian Harper For The Putnam Standard

For three-and-a-half quarters, the Winfield Generals and the George Washington Patriots went toe to toe. But then, the Generals ran out of steam. “We played hard,” Winfield guard Zach Fisher said, “but I think we kind of ran out of gas there at the end.” Saturday night’s matchup was the Generals’ fourth game in a week, and the grind took its toll. “We just didn’t seem to have our legs tonight,” added Winfield head coach Pat McGinnis. The game was a back and forth

contest from the outset, with each team trading baskets, neither able to pull away from the other. The Generals began the game on a hot streak from the outside, knocking down several jumpers. George Washington opted for a more balanced approach, going outside with talented guard Jon Elmore and inside with center Cai Carena. The Patriots led 18-16 at the end of the first quarter. The second quarter was more of the same, as the Generals took a more patient approach, working the ball around to get good open looks. George Washington’s size advantage was offset by the quickness of Winfield, but the Patriots

continued to go inside for their baskets. The Generals used good outside shooting to keep within striking distance, and they only trailed 31-29 at halftime. Coming out of the break, both teams continued to trade blows. Winfield continued to shoot well, but as the quarter progressed, Patriot’s size advantage came to bear as they used a big rebound advantage to fuel an 8-0 run that stretched their lead to eight points. Winfield simply went cold from the field late in the quarter, and trailed 49-43 heading into the final period. The Generals began to cut into the lead in the fourth quarter by getting to the foul line and converting their chances, but the Patriot’s rebounding advantage proved to be too much. The Patriots outrebounded the Generals 42-19, which allowed them to get several second chance baskets. The Generals continued to miss shots from the field as the game wound down, and could not maintain possession. The Patriots were able to put the game away at the free throw line, and pulled away with a 71-59 victory.

Winfield's Bear Bellomy grabs a rebound in a game earlier this season. Bellomy led the Generals with 21 points in a tough 71-59 loss to George Washington. File Photo “We didn’t rebound the basketball tonight,” McGinnis said. “They had a good game plan, but we just didn’t push back tonight.” Bear Bellomy led the Generals with 21 points, Fisher added 12, and Toby Shaw had 11. Elmore had 26 points for George Washington, while Dominick King added 18 and Carena added 16.

The loss ends a long week for the Generals. “Our intensity just wasn’t there tonight,” concluded McGinnis, “but we’ll get rested up and get back on track.” The Generals play South Charleston Friday night at home and Riverside Saturday night away.

Austin Hensley was invited to West Virginia University, Zach Pate to Fairmont State University and Mitchell Fitzgerald to West Virginia State University. All three signed letters of commitment. Principal Richard Campbell was excited about the prospect of having three of his students play at universities in West Virginia. “It will be fun watching them play,” he said. “They have contributed on and off the field. I’m so proud they decided to stay in West Virginia to pursue their dreams.” Hensley, a three-year starter, said he started being pursued by several Division I and II colleges after the end of his junior year. He signed Tuesday during a ceremony at the school. “I went to a couple of football camps and it paid off,” he said. “It was after I was named MVP at the prospect camp that they really started pursuing me.” Hensley, who passed for more than 6,000 yards and had more than 50 touchdowns, knows it will be a tough competition but he is ready. “I’m going to continue to train through the end of school and during the summer,” he said. Hensley said the choice came down to Marshall University or WVU. “My dream is becoming a reality,” he said. He was thankful to have his family members seated at the table with him during the signing. His mom, Shana, and dad, Jon, provided a lot of support

throughout the years as did his sister, Auburn. His sister wore a blue and gold jersey at the signing even though she is a third-year nursing student at Marshall University. Hensley isn’t sure of a major but is looking at studying science and natural resources. Head coach Jeremy Taylor was very proud of Hensley. “I coached all three for a couple of years,” he said. “He is the best quarterback we’ve ever had at Hurricane. West Virginia University got a player. Before the five years are up, he’ll be starting.” Assistant Coach Chuck Leadman added, “He is a great football player and athlete and has contributed a lot to this school. Congratulations to him, Mitchell and Zach. They will do well.” Fitzgerald signed last week to play center for the Yellow Jackets in Institute. “I looked at State and Bethany University before making a decision,” the three-year starter said. “I really like the coaches at State and think that is where I can succeed.” Fitzgerald said he is looking forward to staying close to home and plans to major in criminal justice. Pate also signed last week to play slot receiver for the Fighting Falcons in Fairmont. “When I went up to visit the school I really felt connected to the coaches,” he said. “Plus I’ll be able to play with my brother Tyler.” Like Hensley and Fitzgerald, Pate is ready to work hard. He will continue his training through the spring. “I think I’ll have a chance to secure a spot,” he said. Pate plans to major in exercised science.

goal setting, time management, teamwork, problem solving, respecting diversity, and life balance.” Area business leaders enjoyed watching a 50-student jump rope team perform a 10-minute demonstration. They also visited booths lining the room and spoke with students about some of the new projects. One of the booths highlighted the importance of clean drinking water. “We raised $110 for the Gazelle Foundation by selling $1 football tickets,” Conner Stonestreet said. “The Gazelle Foundation builds clean water systems in Burundi, Africa.” Nick Price said the class learned how people in Burundi have to walk two miles to get water for their houses. “We learned that it is better to give than take,” he said. The students also helped demonstrate several grant programs that physical education teacher Cody Pyle secured. With assistance from Eryn Thomas, Isabella Hart and Danielle Quijano, Pyle whipped up orange smoothies for business leaders. “This is made with fat free sherbet, yogurt and milk,” he said. “It is part of the ‘Fuel Up to Play 60’ breakfast grant we have to make sure kids get a nutritious breakfast.” Helping Pyle get the message out were fourth-grade students Lexie Smolder and Emma Patterson. Their booth featured Fuel Up to Play 60 and how it helps students at West Teays stay healthy. “We get to eat with the coach

Eryn Thomas, Isabella Hart and Danielle Quijano help their physical education teacher, Cody Pyle, serve orange smoothies to area business leaders. and talk about ways to stay healthy,” Patterson explained. Smolder added, “You can do activities on the website and win prizes for the school.” Also sharing the word about healthy habits were Brogan McPherson and Mia Gaynor. They taught area business leaders about the 100-mile club. Both started walking and running in August. They recently achieved the 100-mile goal. “You get to earn rewards along the way,” McPherson said showing off medals and t-shirts. Gaynor added, “You can do it before or after school. It is a way to have fun and be happy.” Pyle will continue to search for more grants for the school. He realizes the grants are a great way to get more programs in the school and keep kids active. “We search for ways to get kids involved,” he said. “We realize not

all kids like to run. We also have the jump rope team and the rock wall, which keeps kids active.” Principal Valerie Fowler said students on the jump rope team are dedicated. “These kids give up their morning and practice before school,” she said. “The team also performed during a Marshall University women’s basketball game.” Fowler also took the opportunity to share information about the school with area leaders. “The school was built in 1980 and started with 250 students,” she said. “In 2000 we had 800 students.” Mountain View Elementary was built to alleviate the crowding at West Teays. “But by next year we’ll be out of room again,” she said. “So (Superintendent Chuck) Hatfield, you need to come up with a plan.”

The Putnam Standard

Hurricane comes up aces in victory over Nitro By Chris Stadelman chris@theputnamstandard.com

NITRO – To mix poker terms with a little blackjack, a pair of 21’s is going to beat the house just about every time. A pair of 25-point quarters helped Hurricane overcome a sluggish start and pull away from Nitro 77-55 on Feb. 6. The Redskins (13-4) got 21 points each from Henry Sorsaia and Trey Dawson in the victory, although it wasn’t the complete game the team is looking for as postseason play approaches. “We came out a little flat,” Dawson admitted. “We need to play better than that, especially if we’re going to beat good teams.” Coach Lance Sutherland was even more direct. “Flat. Flat. Mentally we were just flat,” Sutherland said, while also pointing out that an ugly win is better than a pretty loss. “It was the same kind of flatness we came out with (Feb. 1) at Beckley.” That turned into a 79-48 loss, but it also came to a top state title contender and occurred after players had to kill about six hours between hotel checkout and game time. Although this game turned into a 22-point victory that kept Hurricane undefeated against teams in its section, point guard Jacob Lemmerman said that can’t continue. “I think we’ve just played down to our competition in a couple games,” he said of the 3-12 Wildcats. “If we play like this at sectional and regional time, we’re going to get it handed to us. We have to fear no one but respect everybody.” Nitro came out much more aggressively than Hurricane, leading almost the entire first quarter. The Wildcats struggled from the field, however, keeping the game closer than it could have been at 13-12 after eight minutes. “It could have been worse,” said Garrett DeFries, who had nine points and nine rebounds. “The first half we did not play our game

at all. Defensively we didn’t switch, we let them shoot too many open shots.” DeFries tied the score 17-17 with 6:15 left in the second quarter, then Sorsaia scored four in a row inside and Dawson hit a 3pointer to open the lead to seven in a hurry. Nitro got to within one point at 27-26 with just under two minutes left in the half, but Hurricane never trailed again. J.T. Rogoszewski came off the bench to score 10 points, eight of them in the second half, while Dawson and DeFries each had five assists. Sorsaia had a game-high 10 rebounds for another doubledouble effort. Once Hurricane turned up the heat on the defensive end in the second half, Nitro wilted. The Wildcats committed 15 of their 21 turnovers after intermission, leading to some easy baskets for the Redskins. “We haven’t played great defense the last couple games,” Dawson said. “Forcing turnovers gets our offense going. We’ve got to get back to practice and focus on defense, defense, defense.” The Redskins also have to find a way to come out strong from the first minute. “Self-motivation,” DeFries said of the key. “We’ve got to want to win and have more intensity.” Hurricane plays just one game over a full week, at home Feb. 12 against Cabell Midland. The Redskins are at Huntington Saturday before playing host to George Washington on Feb. 17. Sutherland said he’s happy to have some gaps in the schedule, which will allow for both tinkering in practice and a little rest for the homestretch. Unlike some coaches, he’s happy to talk about what Hurricane wants to accomplish during the postseason. “Every game,” he responded when asked how often he thinks about sectional and regional play. “Right now we’re poised to be the No. 1 sectional seed. If we lose this one … “We get to stay home as long as we win. We’ve got a great crowd

Hurricane’s point guard Jacob Lemmerman drives to the basket during the matchup with Nitro while Trey Dawson gets in position for a rebound.

Hurricane’s Garrett DeFries puts the ball up for two points. He had nine points, nine rebounds and five assists in the Feb. 6 game against Nitro. and want to play at home. We want to get to Charleston. You’ve got to visualize it and have that out there.”
