Oregon seeks developers for former Kmart site Oregon city council on Monday authorized a ground lease/purchase agreement for the former Kmart property located at 2830 Navarre Ave. for a 120 day due diligence period. The city wants to see the property developed as part of its downtown. “This is the next step in a due diligence process for the city to determine whether it wants to enter into a 10 year lease with an option at the end of the 10 years to buy the property for $3.7 million, with lease payments of approximately $300,000 per year during that 10 year period,” said City Administrator Mike Beazley. “The city does not need to make a decision to take this property. It’s just a step in our due diligence phase until April 26. So this is a process where we can take this action, and determine between now and April 26 whether we think that the cost of demolition, the interest and development, and our capacity to develop are practical to move forward. Then we have to make that decision by April 26,” said Beazley. During that time, the city will get engineering estimates for demolition to determine suitability for development, he added. “We will see proposals from develop-

ers. Then we will make a decision between now and April 26 on whether we choose to move forward,” he said. Land assembly The city has reached out to local and regional developers, said Beazley. “We’ve had some good interest in it,” he said. “Our preference is to have multiple partners as we move forward. We are doing some land assembly. Our intention is to combine this with some other land. We have interest in seeing some residential, commercial, medical offices, and other development as well. Anytime a city takes an action like this, there’s risk involved in it. In terms of when we look at Oregon and

the challenges associated with it the last time we had a big box store go empty on Navarre, it sat empty for 15 years. So we understand the challenges with that. We believe though it’s best practice for cities to get control of the space. They can to go out and find developers rather than let it just sit dormant.” The city isn’t interested in developing the property on its own. Rather, they ware looking to bring partners to the table and bring some of the tools cities have to offer, such as tax abatement and Tax Increment Financing (TIF), said Beazley. “There’s opportunities that can bring some value there and create something,” said Beazley. “The community, almost since the day I walked in here, has expressed an interest in this sort of thing. I’ve heard it from council members, and some residents – to see what we could do together to bring development to our core. It’s fairly obvious to us on the city side that we need to do something, put something together that is essential to making it happen. We probably got 50 empty acres just sitting around in that core that have gone undeveloped. We think by bringing some tools, establishing the CRA (Community Reinvestment Area), by partnering with the schools, by moving forward with TIF opportunities, we can bring the infrastructure to make it practical to move forward.” Continued on page 2

Jeremy Walston, M.D., a 1979 Eastwood High School graduate, is an internationally recognized Professor of Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, Maryland. Dr. Walston plays a leading role in setting national and international research and patient care agendas for older adults through his Professorship at Johns Hopkins and through his many leadership roles in the Gerontological Society of America, the National Institutes on Aging, and international organizations such as the World Health Organization. His academic focus has been on the biological basis of aging, and on the development of studies that promote healthy aging. Dr. Walston will be inducted into the Eastwood Alumni Association’s Eagle Way Hall of Fame along with accomplished Midwestern artist Emanuel Enriquez (Class of 1966), decorated U.S. Army chaplain Colonel David Bowlus (1989) and long time community contributor Robert Bruning (Pemberville High School class of 1950. Walston grew up on the family farm on Zepernick Road near New Rochester (outside Pemberville) in Freedom Township, where he was surrounded by a large extended family network that included grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. He enjoys returning with his family to visit the farm and family members in the area. He acknowledges that the peacefulness of the Ohio landscape and early education that he received on the farm from his father and grandfather played a big role in his interest in biology, which eventually led him to the field of medicine. Besides family, Dr. Walston is quick to point out a number of educators who played a key role in his development while a student in the Eastwood School District. “I would say that my third grade teacher at Webster School, Mrs. Henschen stood out as supportive and caring and noticed Continued on page 2

Timing Councilman James Seaman, who is a member of the Economic Development and Planning Committee, asked Beazley about the status of getting proposals sent out to various developers who had visited the city. “We’re going to be sending them out here and across the region,” said Beazley. “We’ve had some good interest in it.” “The timing is pretty good,” said Seaman. “When we send out proposals in the very near future, it’s going to be within the timeline of April 26.” Councilman Steve Hornyak, chairman of the Economic Development and Planning Committee, agreed. “The timing and the planning of this has been fairly significantly thought out as far as making sure we can do the RFPs (Request for Proposals), get them out and get a response back. At the end of the day, we’re not developing the property. We’re looking for someone to develop it. A developer is going to come in and decide what makes the best sense. He’s going to look at this from a feasibility standpoint. Until we know what that feedback is, we have our thoughts and plans of what we like, but at the end of the day we also need to see what that is and whether that meshes with our goals.”

Waterline replacement Oregon has awarded a construction contract for the Annual Waterline Replacement – Homestead Subdivision project to replace the local 6-inch waterline with a new 8-inch waterline along N. Yarrow, N. Stephen, N. Goodyear, N. Fargo, N. Edward, and Goodrich streets. All work will be within the existing right of way of these streets. Construction work is set to begin early this month, weather permitting. The current project completion date is June 30. The project is being funded with the city’s water construction funds. There will be no cost to property owners for this improvement.

and encouraged my observational abilities that have proven to be useful in my medical and research career,” Walston said. “My sixth grade teachers, Mrs. Hansen and Mrs. Schroeder, were incredibly important in helping me through the awkward transition to adolescence. My seventh grade English teacher, Mrs. Seal, junior and senior high math teachers, Mrs. Kuhlman, Mr. Gerke, and Miss Rolfes, and English teacher and Aquila advisor Mr. Heckman all had very positive influences in that they were highly supportive of my academic achievements and pushed me to strive for more as I moved towards college.” Besides crediting former teachers with the role they’ve played in his life, Dr. Walston is also quick to credit many family members and mentors he’s had over the years “who helped me to envision how to move towards the incredibly fulfilling personal and work life that I have.” Dr. Walston adds, “I have always had a very open mind and try to listen to and be friendly with all kinds of people from all age groups and all walks of life. I gain great strength from these relationships and interactions. I also try not to take things and myself too seriously, and I have a sense of inner peace that comes from my network of personal relationships and my faith.” Road to nation’s best During his high school career, Dr. Walston’s excellence was recognized by his selection and participation in the National Honor Society from his sophomore year through graduation. He was heavily involved in music-related activities from marching band, pep band, stage band, symphonic band, and the annual musical. In addition, Jeremy was selected to student council while a junior and a senior, was an Aquila staff photographer, in the Latin Club for three years, wrote and photographed for the Eagle’s Eye staff as a senior, and was a Buckeye Boy’s State participant. Dr. Walston graduated from Capital University in Columbus with a BA in Biology. His alma mater recognized him for his Johns Hopkins professorship and his many accomplishments with an honorary doctorate in 2004, during which he was also the commencement speaker. Dr. Walston attended medical school at the University of Cincinnati and went on to Johns Hopkins University for a residency in Internal Medicine and a fellowship in Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology. Dr. Walston joined the faculty at Johns Hopkins in 1993 and now holds the Raymond and Anna Lublin Chair for Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology.

Dr. Jeremy Walston

He is the principal investigator of the Johns Hopkins Older American Independence Center, the co-director of the Biology of Healthy Aging Program, and the deputy Director of the Division of Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology. The Johns Hopkins Division of Geriatric’s Medicine and Gerontology was selected as the nation’s No. 1 program in geriatrics for 2017 - 2018 by the U.S. News and World Report, and has been in the top three nationally recognized programs for over a decade. Dr. Walston’s area of expertise is geriatric medicine with research focusing on the biology that drives aging and medical conditions related to aging such as muscle loss and frailty. He became interested in aging and late life vulnerability through his many interactions with vulnerable older adults in the hospital setting and realizing that there had to be better ways to treat older adults in medical settings. He helped develop the most commonly used tool to identify frailty in older adults and has used it to help define the biology that influences frailty and decline in later life. His biological discoveries have helped to set the stage for the development of novel preventive and treatment strategies that will enable improved quality of life for millions of older adults.

Low cost spay offered for cats before spring Warmer weather may still be months away, but Humane Ohio wants cat owners to “Beat the Heat” by spaying their female cats to prevent unwanted litters from being born this spring. Animal shelters commonly refer to spring time as “kitten season” because that is when they receive the largest numbers of unwanted litters that are difficult to adopt. To help reduce the number of homeless cats born this spring, Humane Ohio is offering a special “Beat the Heat” promotion, funded by a grant from PetSmart Charities, the leading funder of animal welfare in North America. During February and March, the nonprofit organization will spay owned female cats for a special rate of only $20. Cat owners who wish to take advantage of this offer must mention the “Beat the Heat” promotion when they schedule their appointment and availability is limited. Spay/neuter is one of the most effective ways to reduce the homeless pet population. Female cats can have three litters a year, and kittens can breed as young as four months old. Spaying a female cat before the first heat cycle is actually beneficial, rather than waiting until after one heat cycle has occurred. The procedure is known to improve the health of the pet, including a reduced risk of certain reproductive cancers and infections. Humane Ohio’s goal is to eliminate pet homelessness. Julie Lyle, Humane Ohio’s Clinic Director, says, “We are so pleased to be able to offer this special price to cat owners this year. The “Beat the Heat” promotion has helped hundreds of cat owners get their cats spayed at a very affordable price in years past, and will help hundreds more this year!“ Kelly Balthazor, regional relationship manager at PetSmart Charities, said the group is “thrilled” to to support Humane Ohio in its efforts to provide accessible spay services to cat owners throughout Lucas County. “ Because of the work of Humane Ohio, thousands of unplanned kitten litters will be prevented before the height of kitten season, reducing the local homeless cat population,” she said. The grant will allow Humane Ohio to spay 800 owned female cats at the special $20 rate during February and March. Please visit www.humaneohio.org or follow Humane Ohio on Facebook at www. facebook.com/humaneohio for more information or call 419-266-5607 to schedule an appointment. Humane Ohio Humane Ohio operates a non-profit, low cost spay/neuter clinic and pet food bank that fixed 17,895 animals in 2018. Their spay/neuter clinic serves Ohio and Michigan and can offer low-cost spay/neuter prices because donations and grants help keep the cost low while maintain-

ing high quality veterinary care. All spay/ neuter surgeries are performed by licensed veterinarians (DVMs) and every patient receives quality pain medication and anesthesia. Humane Ohio also has a small adoption program, and placed over 350 cats and kittens into loving homes in 2018. PetSmart Charities PetSmart Charities, Inc. is committed to finding lifelong, loving homes for all pets by supporting programs that bring people and pets together. Through its in-store adoption program in all PetSmart stores across the U.S. and Puerto Rico, PetSmart Charities helps to find forever homes and families for more than 500,000 shelter pets each year. PetSmart Charities also provides grant funding to nonprofits aligned with its mis-

sion under key areas of support. Each year, millions of PetSmart shoppers help pets in need by donating to PetSmart Charities using the PIN pads at checkout registers inside PetSmart stores. In turn, PetSmart Charities efficiently uses more than 90 cents of every dollar donated to fulfill its role as the leading funder of animal welfare in North America, granting almost $340 million since its inception in 1994. Independent from PetSmart Inc., PetSmart Charities is a 501(c)(3) organization that has received the Four-Star Rating from Charity Navigator, a third-party organization that reports on the effectiveness, accountability and transparency of nonprofits, for the past 15 years in a row – placing it among the top one percent of charities rated by this organization.

Foundation grant The Lake Erie Foundation (LEF) received a $5,000 grant from the Erie County Ohio-based Mylander Foundation. The award will be invested in strengthening the organization’s outreach to those who are currently engaged in efforts to protect the lake, and in generating additional support by educating new audiences about the issues. LEF will use the funds to enhance their website (lakeeriefoundation.org), adding new content and making it easier for online processing of memberships, event registrations, and contributions. New printed materials and social media capabilities will also be added thanks to the grant award. “Increasing awareness of the need to restore and protect Lake Erie’s waters is important to our members” said LEF’s Board President Jim Stouffer. “A more sophisticated website platform will allow for the execution of a wider range of funding sources currently not available to LEF electronically. This would include the ability to accommodate different levels of membership, business sponsorship, and contributions.”

Appeals court

Vehicle search ruled lawful By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com

Military Notes U.S. Air Force National Guard Airman Jettie G. Moore graduated from basic military training at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, San Antonio, Texas. The airman completed an intensive, eight-week program that included training in military discipline and studies, Air Force core values, physical fitness, and basic warfare principles and skills. Airmen who complete basic training also earn four credits toward an associate in applied science degree through the Community College of the Air Force. She is a 2016 graduate of Cardinal Stritch Catholic High School.

“

…where an officer detects a strong odor of raw marijuana, but no large amount is found within the passenger compartment of the vehicle, the officer has probable cause to search trunk.

“

The conviction of a man for trafficking and possession of marijuana after being stopped by Walbridge police on I-280 has been upheld by the Ohio Sixth District Court of Appeals. Scott Donaldson, of Whitehouse, had appealed a decision by the Wood County Common Pleas Court to deny his motion to suppress evidence. Walbridge officers on Dec. 13, 2016 stopped Donaldson’s vehicle in the southbound lane of I-280 after he failed to signal prior to changing lanes, according to court records, and one officer reported “a very strong odor of raw marijuana” as he approached the vehicle. When asked about the odor, Donaldson acknowledged he had a small amount of marijuana in his jacket pocket. While checking Donaldson’s license, police learned he had an active warrant out of Erie, Michigan for marijuana possession. The officers seized a vial and $1,400 in cash from Donaldson and proceeded to search the vehicle and found no drugs in the passenger compartment. A search of the trunk revealed seven plastic bags of suspected marijuana hidden in paint buckets. When asked, Donaldson said the bags each weighed a quarter pound. Donaldson entered a plea of not guilty and in May 2017 filed a motion to suppress the evidence, arguing the marijuana was unlawfully seized as a result of warrantless search that wasn’t authorized by any exception to the warrant clauses of the constitutions of Ohio or the United States. The common pleas court ruled the officer’s detection of the odor of marijuana provided the requisite probable cause to search the entire vehicle. The court further found that the vial of marijuana and cash produced by Donaldson when instructed to empty his pockets could be subject to suppression because the officers lacked any reasonable suspicion that Donaldson was armed or dangerous and no pat-down was conducted prior to Donaldson emptying his pockets.

However, the court concluded the vial and cash shouldn’t be suppressed because they would have inevitably been found after the officers discovered the marijuana in the trunk and arrested Donaldson. He was sentenced to two years of community control and ordered to forfeit his vehicle and the cash. The appeals court affirmed the lower court decision and distinguished between search situations involving the odor of raw marijuana and burning marijuana. Citing other decisions, the appeals court wrote, “…where an officer detects a strong odor of raw marijuana, but no large amount is found within the passenger compartment of the vehicle, the officer has probable cause to search trunk.” The appeals court also rejected Donaldson’s argument that the small amount of marijuana he produced before the search eliminated the probable cause to search the vehicle. “Ohio courts have held that the production of drugs by an occupant of a vehicle independently provides an officer with additional probable cause to believe that the vehicle contains evidence of contraband,” the court wrote.

Brown nominates U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) announced his nomination of students to attend U.S. Military Service Academies, including two from Lucas County. “Ohio schools are training young women and men who will be the next generation of military leaders. I am honored to nominate these outstanding students for our prestigious U.S. Military Service Academies,” said Brown. Each year, Brown nominates students for each slot available at our nation’s service academies requiring congressional recommendations. This year, openings were available for Brown to nominate up to 20 students to the Air Force Academy and up to 10 students each to the Merchant Marine Academy, the Naval Academy, and the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. . Lucas County nominees include Toledoan Jolee Hatfield King, of Toledo School for the Arts, to the Naval Academy, and Sylvania resident Seth CurtisMcCormack, of St. Francis de Sales High School, to West Point.

Release party set for local history book By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com A party celebrating the release of a local history book written by Lou Hebert, of Genoa, is scheduled for Feb. 11 at 7 p.m. at the Gathering Volumes Bookstore, 196 E. South Boundary St., Perrysburg. Though titled, Hidden History of Toledo, Hebertâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book offers a look at events and people â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and a horse and dogs â&#x20AC;&#x201C; from Northwest Ohio who have largely faded from memory but in their time made headlines or entered into the folk lore of their communities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some of the stories I have written about in columns. I updated them and fleshed them out a little more and included newer photos or illustrations if they were available. Others are ones I have done a lot of research on but havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t written about yet,â&#x20AC;? Hebert said in a phone interview. June MacCloy, who passed away in 2005, epitomized the glamour era of 1920s and 30s Hollywood and Broadway. Born in 1909, the graduate of Scott High School worked with such notables as Douglas Fairbanks Sr., Groucho Marx and Vincent Minnelli. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She definitely had the Hollywood look and was actually a really good singer but had a deep, almost male contralto type voice,â&#x20AC;? Hebert said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some thought that might be why she didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make it even bigger. She did a lot of impersonations of male singers at the time because of her voice.â&#x20AC;? A story of more recent times, The Clock that Never Stopped, features the former Round the Clock brothel/restaurant that operated on Woodville Road near the

border of Ottawa and Wood counties. Drive along the stretch of Woodville Road between Northwood and Genoa in the late 1940s and early 50s and you would pass several roadhouses, a couple illegal gambling establishments, a few truckstops with slot Lou Hebert machines and an amusement park, Forest Park that was falling into disrepair, Hebert writes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Vice did not take a holiday on Woodville Road. So why not add to the menu of options? Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exactly what Lillian Pasco did, as she and (husband) Michael transformed the grill they bought into the Round the Clock,â&#x20AC;? he writes. The Clock, as it was known, funded a lifestyle for Lillian that included a home near Elmore and a small mansion in Arizona until federal agents raided the operation in 1970. She and others were convicted on several charges, including tax evasion, gambling, bribery and others. The Ottawa County sheriff and a former sheriff were convicted on bribery-related charges. Hebert offers some personal insight into the operation. As a teenaged delivery boy for a Genoa grocery store, he would on occasion make deliveries to The Clock. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was always difficult for me to believe that the local law enforcement agencies didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what was going on there, when as a 16-year-old, I knew, as did every-

body else,â&#x20AC;? he writes. The book also provides the history of the man for whom Prentice Park in East Toledo is named. Frederick Prentice was born in 1822 and became a major industrialist in the Midwest by purchasing sandstone quarries when a building boom was starting. There is some doubt about where Prentice is buried. A family plot at Willow Cemetery in the City of Oregon includes his parents, daughter and first two wives. There is a marker for Prentice but Hebert says the general consensus is that Prentice is buried in New York not far from the Hudson River where he had a home. Some others featured in Hidden History of Toledo include two dogs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Owney,â&#x20AC;? described as a scruffy IrishScottish terrier, was featured in many newspapers in the late 1800s for riding in rail cars hauling mail bags and became a national celebrity. In 2011, his image was put on a postal stamp. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Laddie Boyâ&#x20AC;? was an Airedale given to President Warren G. Harding as an inauguration gift in 1921 by Caswell Kennels in Toledo. Hebert opens his book with the story of the horse, Cresceus, owned by George Ketcham. A trotter, Cresceus was called the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Monarch of the Mile.â&#x20AC;? Other stories cover Frank Burt, a well-known theater owner; Jack Miller, of Fremont, who gained fame as an aviator; Ben Stone, the first black in Ohio to become a small-town police chief in Luckey; Charles Roth, a Toledo police officer and symphony conductor and more.

She is preceded in death by her father Stanley Idzkowski and mother Vicki Idzkowski. She is survived by her sister and brother-inlaw Jeannine (Dolly) and Richard Howe, daughter and son-in-law Andrea and Andy Noonan, son and daughterin-law Tony Lengel and Brie Myers. In addition are her three granddaughters, Abby Noonan, Kate Noonan, and Samantha Lengel which were the everyday roses in her life. She also was aunt to many cherished nieces and nephews. Joey was an elementary school teacher for over 30 years in Toledo Public and Parochial schools. She was an excellent teacher enriching the lives of hundreds of students. She taught at various schools but her longest tenures were at Sacred Heart parish school and Navarre elementary. She took great pleasure tending to the plants and flowers which surrounded her house on the east side. Joey was an accomplished seamstress and she was an incredibly skilled artist. Art was one of her passions of which many of her friends and family have her works adorning their homes. She was an animal lover. She loved all kinds of animals but was especially fond of cats and birds. She was a supporter of the ASPCA, the Toledo Zoo and the Toledo Humane Society. Most importantly though was her relationship with the Lord. All her life she was an active Catholic participating and volunteering in various ways for each parish she belonged to. More recently she was involved in bible study and craft activities such as the cookie club for The Epiphany of the Lord parish. One of her proudest accomplishments was becoming an Associate of the Notre Dame Nuns. Joey was a happy, kind and loving mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, friend and teacher. She touched and helped countless lives. She saw the Lord in the setting sky; the birds in flight; the smile of a stranger and cherished life. In keeping with her approach to life, a memorial mass to celebrate her life will be held on May 4, 2019 at Sacred Heart Church 509 Oswald St, Toledo, OH 43605. Receiving will begin at 10:00 am.

I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die. Patricia Farinelli

Oregon to add splash pad, fitness court to complex By Kelly J. Kaczala News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com

Fitness Court Council also issued a purchase order for $92,950 to National Fitness Campaign

A rendering of the splash pad. (Courtesy Oregon Parks and Recreation Commissioner Tim Borton) LLC, of San Francisco, for a fitness court and National Campaign Resources. “We discussed both of these items at length during the budget process,” said City Administrator Mike Beazley. The fitness court is a comprehensive outdoor circuit training system that supports 28 simultaneous users on 30 separate pieces of equipment. The fitness court provides seven minute training modules for adults of all ages and fitness levels. The system is integrated with a sports floor to simulate an indoor gym. “It’s something that would provide fitness opportunities here in Oregon,” said Borton. “Right now, we don’t have an indoor facility for that, but this would be

“

It’s a nice piece to add to the ballpark and everything else out there.

“

Oregon City Council approved the purchase of a splash pad and a fitness court to be used by the recreation department for public use in the Coontz Recreation Complex on Seaman Road. Council agreed to issue a purchase order for $122,724.28 to GameTime, of Harrison Ohio, for a sprayground custom baseball/softball arch splash pad at the baseball diamonds in the back of the recreation center. The splash pad will facilitate a more family friendly atmosphere by using the recreation grounds as a recreational facility versus using it only as a sports facility, according to Tim Borton, the recreation commissioner. “We talked about it a lot. It’s something to add to the recreation complex to make it a destination, even if you’re not out here for a baseball or softball game,” said Borton. “It would certainly add to the experience of the baseball and softball games. The younger kids and the kids not participating can come and cool off on the splash pad” Plans call for it to be located just south of the baseball and softball concession stand, he said. “There was a playground there. We’ll put it there so it’s centrally located. We had a meeting with the splash pad representatives and some people from the engineering department. They are very excited. There is water close by and utilities are close by, so installation is not going to be that difficult of a project. It’s a nice piece to add to the ballpark and everything else out there.” The amount approved by council is for the purchase of the equipment and the installation by GameTime, said Borton. “Then there’s money left in the budget for a concrete pad, which will be done locally here,” said Borton.

Inspirational Message of the Week: Valentine’s Day The history of Valentine’s Day is clouded in myth and legend. There are at least three people named Valentine who are mentioned in early church documents, all of whom are thought to have been martyred. One was a priest who supposedly married people despite the ban on marriage by the Emperor Claudius. (This ban on marriage was in effect because Claudius believed that single men made better soldiers.) In one of those legends about St. Valentine, we are told that Valentine refused to renounce Christ before Emperor Claudius in the year 280 AD and was thus, sentenced to death. However, before being executed, St. Valentine supposedly restored the sight and hearing of the jailer’s daughter. And, some

Northwood

accounts even tell of St. Valentine sending a letter to the jailer’s daughter signed, “from your Valentine,” and this story is sometimes used to explain the custom of sending love-inspired cards on this day. Whatever the truth about St. Valentine, there is little doubt that love triumphs over all. Love of God, gave countless martyrs the faith to accept their deaths with equanimity. Love also gives people who are wronged, the power to forgive their oppressors. And love inspires all of us to simply be better people. Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it. If a man offered for love all the wealth of his house, it would be utterly scorned. R.S.V. Song of Solomon 8:7

Your Voice on the Street: By Stephanie Wade Did you do anything to prepare for the deep freeze?

FEBRUARY 4, 2019

The Press Poll Do you think the media coverage of the youth facing the Native American in Washington, D.C., was accurate?

John Martinez Northwood “Yes I did. This past weekend we went to the grocery store and stocked up on canned food and water. We went to Menards and stocked up on salt. I ſlled up my wife’s car on the weekend and ſlled up mine on Tuesday. I dug out my gloves and ear muffs and I called my kids to make sure that they were prepared also.”

Jabreai Davis Toledo “I went grocery shopping; got extra snacks for my kids and extra bottles of water since they will be off school. I gassed up my car and I turned every thermostat in my house up. The heat is on high!”

Kaylla McNeal Toledo “I got gas, milk, bread, eggs. We already had groceries but we just got enough extra to get us past the next few days.”

Mark Chapinski Millbury “Yes, I ſlled up my tank and I made room in my garage for all the cars. The last time we ſt them all in there was last winter. It was quite a job. I had a lot to move but I am sure we will be thankful for it.”

Geoff Monger Toledo “I shoveled a lot of snow for myself and my neighbors. I laid down animal friendly salt that works in low temperatures. We have an only child so we invited one of his friends to stay the night and have a slumber party through the days off. We went to the library to pick out movies to watch while they are off school. We stocked up on groceries and got gas.”

The road to success most often starts with failures Fear of failure is one of the biggest fears people have. Ironically, failure is an integral component of the success process. There are two distinctly different types of failure. Absolute failure is when you give up. Successful failure is when you get back up. Of course, not everything you attempt works out as planned. When working towards a goal, you will likely discover many ways which don’t work as anticipated. Successful people throughout history have experienced this phenomenon. It took Thomas Edison 10,000 tries before he finally discovered a workable formula for a commercially viable lightbulb. When asked how it felt to fail so many times, Edison explained that he hadn’t failed at all. Instead he had discovered 9,999 ways a light bulb wouldn’t work. Henry Ford went bankrupt twice before his third attempt at a successful automobile manufacturing company finally took hold. R. H. Macy went bankrupt three times before he came up with a successful business model. Dr. Seuss was rejected by 23 publishers before the 24th publisher sold millions of his books.

Dare to Live

by Bryan Golden Most job seekers go through this process before landing a position they want. They fail their way to success by sending out hundreds of resumes. Their goal is to get one or more interviews which ultimately lead to at least one job offer. Then, if the job doesn’t meet their expectations, they have to start the process over again. You learned to walk by failing your way to success. Each time you fell down, you struggled to get back up. Each iteration of this process taught you muscle control and balance. You ultimately learned to walk because you refused to give up. There are countless other examples of people who have failed their way to success. Yet, there are also even more people who have failed and then given up. It’s up

to you whether you will experience successful failure, or absolute failure. Here are some strategies to use in order to fail your way to success. First, accept failure as a necessary ingredient for success. Each failure gets you one step closer to your objective. Failure is a learning opportunity which shows what requires adjustment. After each failure, determine what went wrong and look for ways to make improvements. Success requires continuous learning. Seek to constantly add to your skills and knowledge. Study successful people to determine what they have done right. Learn from unsuccessful people what not to do. Taking action is crucial for producing results. Always be in motion working towards your objective. Keep trying new approaches until you find a working combination. Get up right away each time you stumble or fall. Leave your comfort zone. You’ve got to try things you have not done before. When what you are doing is not working, you must make positive changes. This requires venturing into the unknown.

Failure is likely if you take steps which are too big. Big steps are difficult to manage and complete. Big steps should be broken down into a number of smaller, more manageable steps. For example, opening a large restaurant from scratch is fraught with challenges. If you have little or no experience, your chances of failure increase. Instead, start with a small sandwich shop. As you gain success and experience, you could expand your business. By taking smaller, more manageable steps, failures are more readily recoverable. Don’t fear failure. Embrace successful failure as essential for goal attainment. Use each failure as the invaluable learning tool it is. The way you fail yourself to success is by getting right up whenever you fall down. NOW AVAILABLE: “Dare to Live Without Limits,” the book. Visit www.BryanGolden. com or your bookstore.

Recognizing momentum — great things happening in Ohio’s schools Merriam-Webster defines momentum as “strength or force gained by motion.” In sports, the concept of momentum often is used to describe teams or athletes that create an energy that turns the game in their favor through a series of outstanding efforts and events. As a sports fan, I can recognize that concept in action. There is a feeling of extreme positivity, gains are being made, and everyone — the team, the coaches, the fans — recognizes things are going in the right direction. It feels contagious — and the idea is that you can build on it. That energy can apply to schools too. Our state superintendent of public instruction, Paolo DeMaria, spends a lot of time visiting with Ohio’s students and teachers to see firsthand the great things happening in Ohio’s classrooms. If you follow his Twitter and the department’s Instagram posts, you can see amazing examples of these schools. These visits also are featured in blog posts. Recently, as part of the ongoing discussion about Ohio’s Strategic Plan for Education, Each Child, Our Future, Paolo has been visiting schools that have received state recognition. Ohio highlights schools and districts with awards that recognize high academic performance, growth, and improvements with groups of students. In my role with the state report card and understanding the performance of Ohio’s schools, one of my favorite recognitions is the Momentum Award. The Ohio Board of Education presents this award to districts and schools for exceeding expectations in student growth on state assessments. To earn the award, a district or school must earn straight A’s on all ValueAdded measures on the Ohio School Report Cards. Report cards serve many purposes. One of those that often gets overlooked is the recognition of success. Report cards have a lot of information. They contain in-

complex, but the importance of it cannot be overstated. All students in Ohio can show growth. All schools and districts, regardless of their starting points, can show growth for their students. The Momentum Award identifies those schools and districts that exceeded growth expectations on the most recent report cards. A total of 70 districts and 226 schools recently were announced as Momentum Award winners. They come from all over the state, including Georgetown Jr/Sr High School in Brown County, Mason City Schools, and Paul L. Dunbar Elementary in Cleveland. They will be recognized with certificates, and many local newspapers have been highlighting these successes. But most importantly, students in these schools are showing outstanding growth. There are great things going on in Ohio’s schools, and growth on state assessments is only one part of the picture. Schools are preparing students for what comes after graduation. Schools are meeting students’ social-emotional needs. Students

Wrong answer to opioids To the editor: I recently had knee replacement surgery at the age of 52. As a “Tom boy” growing up in the country and on farms I have been through some very painful events and was told to just “walk it off.” None the less, nothing could have prepared me for the extreme pain this surgery caused. Adding insult to injury was this “opioid epidemic” that we hear about at every turn. My doctor said the government wouldn’t let him give me enough pain medicine – even though he knows I am a control freak and would never get hooked on pain meds. (Or he could check my Ohio Automated Rx Reporting System report.)

Even if the doctor did prescribe the medicine the insurance company would not allow it to be filled. If it did get past the insurance company the pharmacist now has the power to veto the prescription. What did I do to deserve this? Who’s to blame for my mistakes? Maybe we should give speeding tickets to everyone before they can get their license to drive. That seems just as fair. People speed sometimes so everyone should have to pay for a speeding ticket. I’m not sure what the answer is to this opioid epidemic but the new regulations are not the answer. Gina DeJohn Millbury

are participating in remarkable art programs and marching in dazzling bands. There are lots of great things that represent success, and we should be sure to acknowledge that. We also can learn from these examples using Ohio’s Evidence-Based Clearinghouse. The Momentum Award is one way to acknowledge that success. Congrats to all of this year’s honorees. Keep doing great things for Ohio’s students. Chris Woolard is senior executive director for Performance and Impact for the Ohio Department of Education.

New exhibit at Wood Co. Museum The Wood County Historical Museum, opened the 2019 season on Feb. 1st with a new exhibit, “For Comfort & Convenience: Public Charity in Ohio by Way of the Poor Farm.” The museum is located at 13660 County Home Rd., Bowling Green. The exhibit depicts Ohio’s earliest form of public charity, the poor farm, by representing all of Ohio’s 88 counties. Historical documentation shared from many counties will be placed within diorama-style exhibits, along with 120 modern-day photographs of each county taken by local photographer Jeffrey Hall over the last two years. The exhibit examines the architecture and design of institutional life in Ohio as characterized by the Ohio State Board of Charities, and the people who worked to uphold “comfort and convenience” for public charity. These early standards set in motion a variety of social welfare practices that are used today. This exhibit was made possible by the Ohio Arts Council and the Ohio Humanities Council. The museum will be open for self-guided tours Monday-Friday, 10 a.m.-4 p.m. and weekends from 1-4 p.m. (closed on government holidays). Admission is $7 for adults and $3 for children, with discounts for seniors, students, and military. Historical Society members receive free admission as well as a gift shop discount. The museum offers free admission to all visitors on the first Friday of each month, courtesy of the Bowling Green Convention & Visitors Bureau. The museum is handicap accessible and group tours are welcome. A grand opening celebration for the exhibit will take place Friday, Feb. 22 with a ribbon-cutting at 4:45 p.m., followed by a public reception and self-guided tours from 5-8p.m. Exhibit photographer Jeff Hall will share remarks at 6 p.m. about his 5,000mile journey to Ohio’s poor farm sites.

Capture the flag to escape HPLM Imagine yourself to be Civil War soldier in the 72nd Ohio Volunteer Infantry mustered from Sandusky County. During the embarrassing defeat your unit experienced at the Battle of Shiloh, the Rebels captured your regiment’s banner and have taken it back to their camp. This humiliation cannot stand! You and your team have orders to proceed into the Confederate camp under the cover of darkness, scout out whatever clues you can find regarding the flag’s location, and retrieve it. Sources say you should have one hour to complete your mission before the Rebel garrison becomes aware of your presence.

Complete the mission, and you will safely escape with your flag. This is the theme of the Hayes Presidential Library & Museums’ Escape Room event, taking place Friday, March 22, Saturday, March 23, Friday, March 29, and Saturday, March 30.

The winter celebration will include a wide variety of community events, featuring outdoor hockey games being played at Fifth Third Field. “Winterfest captured a moment and turned the spotlight on Toledo when we hosted the event in 2014-15,” said President and CEO of Toledo Mud Hens and Toledo Walleye Joe Napoli. “We received tremendous support and I can’t wait to showcase our city now, five years later, with the addition of Hensville, Promenade Park, Middlegrounds Metropark, rooftop bars, new restaurants and so much more by 2020. The first Winterfest had such a collaborative spirit and we’re excited to see what our community partners can do this time.” Toledo is the first and only city in the ECHL to host an outdoor hockey game. More than 50,000 people attended the various events when the Walleye hosted their first Winterfest from Dec. 26, 2014 through Jan. 4, 2015, which included the first two outdoor games in ECHL history. The dates and events for Winterfest in December of 2020 will be announced at a later time.

2019 Greater Toledo Auto Show rolling into town Feb. 7-10 The Toledo Automobile Dealers Association is bringing new vehicles and the latest interactive technologies to consumers and car enthusiasts at the 2019 Greater Toledo Auto Show Feb. 7-10 at the SeaGate Convention Centre in downtown Toledo. The annual event, presented by The Blade, will feature the newest models from more than 20 manufacturers. The U.S. auto industry finished 2018 strong, ahead of most predictions. Thanks in large part to a strong December, U.S. light-vehicle sales were expected to close the year up slightly from 2017. In fact, December was on pace to be the second-strongest month of 2018, with sales topping out at about 1.6 million vehicles, pushing the total volume to an estimated 17. 3 million for the year. A record number of truck and SUV launches are highly anticipated moving into 2019 as well as more than 45 new or redesigned vehicles, including a significant number of crossovers. According to the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA), new car dealers are generally optimistic about 2019 and excited about changes in technology that advance safety features and improve both fuel economy and vehicle electrification. “The Greater Toledo Auto Show is an annual event the community anticipates and supports every year,” said Kelly Danison, Toledo Auto Show Director. “The auto industry is a vital part of the Toledo economy and we look forward to sharing all the exciting new features, as well as popular activities that are fun for the whole family.” Attractions at this year’s show include: • Ride & Drive: The FCA (FiatChrysler) Ride and Drive will once again offer a spin in one of the newest vehicles from Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, RAM and FIAT. • Photo Scavenger Hunt. A copy of the images will be available at the show. Participants who correctly identify the makes and models of the vehicles featured in the photos will be entered into a raffle

See a wide array of sports cars, sedans, SUVs, minivans and motorcycles from 26 different manufacturers, and enjoy some fun for the whole family at the 2019 Greater Toledo Auto Show Feb. 7-10 at the SeaGate Convention Centre. (Photo courtesy of Ohio Automobile Dealers Association) for the chance to win a new TV. • Kids’ activities back by popular demand include Matt the Balloon Guy and Face Doodles by Jen and appearances from Muddy & Muddonna of the Toledo Mud Hens over the weekend. This year’s show will once again feature a car giveaway, with the grand prize a two-year lease on a 2019 Toyota Corolla Hatchback. The Northwest Ohio Toyota Dealers are sponsoring this year’s contest, entries are being accepted through Feb. 5 at the four participating Northwest Ohio Toyota Dealers’ locations – LaRiche Toyota, Thayer Toyota, Jim White Toyota or Yark Toyota. Entries will also be accepted at the Auto Show Feb. 7-10. Eight finalists – one from each of the four dealerships

and one from each day of the show, will be drawn. All eight finalists will be invited to the Auto Show on Sunday, Feb. 10 for the grand prize drawing. The potential winner must be present to claim the prize. Show tickets are available online now for $6 at www.toledoautoshow.org/ show-info or $8 at the box office. Children 9 and under will be admitted free with a paid adult. Tickets for students with appropriate IDs and seniors (65+ years of age) are $6 at the box office. For more information about tickets, show hours, schedule of events, directions and special activities, visit the show website. Cars are the Stars Area dealers will continue their

long-standing tradition of giving back to the community through their annual 2019 Auto Dealers United for Kids “Cars are the Stars” Preview Gala. The gala is scheduled for Wednesday, Feb. 6 from 6:30-11 p.m. Over the years, “The Cars are the Stars” Preview Gala has grown to become one of the largest benefits in the Greater Toledo area, surpassing $1.99 million in donations to local children’s charities. Some of the local charities that will benefit from this year’s gala include the Catholic Club, Children’s Rights Collaborative (CRC) of Ohio, Connecting Kids to Meals, Safe Kids Greater Toledo and YMCA Storer Camps. Tickets are $250 and can be purchased online at www.toledoautoshow.org/preview-gala.

Cakewalkin’ Jass Band makes return to Tony Packo’s By Harold Hamilton Special to The Press news@presspublications.com A time-honored tradition has been restored at the Original Tony Packo’s on Front Street in East Toledo. After a 17-year absence, the Cakewalkin’ Jass Band is back playing at the place that Toledo’s own Jamie Farr (Corporal Klinger from the long-running series M*A*S*H) made famous. Their jazzed-up Dixieland style – often with a bit of Blues thrown in – conjures up the feeling of being on Bourbon Street in the Big Easy. The band was formed in 1967, and after playing only three nightclub jobs and a wedding, they opened at Tony Packo’s in 1968. They played at the restaurant through 1980, and after short break, returned in 1981 and stayed for 20 years. They celebrated Packo’s 50th anniversary with a three-day gig in December 2017, playing to a packed house every night. When they returned last fall with the same results, the musicians and restaurant management agreed they needed to figure out how to do something more permanent, which led to an agreement that the CJB would return every second Thursday starting this month. Since inception, the band has played across the United States and Canada, including the World Championship of Jazz in Indianapolis, where the leader, Ray Heitger, was selected as one of the six outstanding musicians at the festival. The CJB also played in Sacramento, California at the

four-day long Dixieland Jubilee, as well as numerous other jazz events as well as many Toledo locations and private parties. The band has also played at a dozen or more funerals in the true New Orleans tradition with the up-tempo happy jazz after the funeral following the somber dirges at the service. Two of the most notable funerals was for the wife of Tony Packo and later her daughter Nancy Packo Horvath. Over its 51-year lifetime, the band has developed a repertoire of more than 490 tunes and has had 29 full-time musicians and about 51 substitutes. Current members include “Ragtime Rick” Grafing who once owned a Toledo bar and restaurant of the same name, ran for Toledo mayor (and lost) and currently has a radio program on WSPD 1370AM every Saturday morning. Rick’s wife, “Banjo Betsy,” is also a member of the CJB. Percussionist Buddy Lopez is a 1980 graduate of Genoa High School, where he was a member of the marching and concert bands. The Cakewalkin’ Jass Band will be next at Packo’s on Valentine’s Day and every second Thursday night from 7 to 10 p.m. – hopefully for another 20 years.

Artist known for sculptures at Schedel to be honored By Press Staff Writer news@presspublications.com Emanuel Enriquez, a well-known and highly respected artist in the Midwest who grew up in Pemberville, is one of four inductees into the Eastwood Alumni Association’s Eagle Way Hall of Fame. Among his works of art is “Alone Together” – a sculpture located at Schedel Arboretum and Gardens in Elmore. Enriquez is also known for “Who’s Up?” – an 8-by-10-foot, 2,600-pound bronze sculpture showcasing several life-sized children peeping through several knotholes in the fence to view a baseball game. The $90,000 sculpture, meant to reflect old-time baseball and the knotholes gangs of kids who visited Swayne Field in Toledo, was dedicated on Labor Day in 2002 at Fifth Third Field in Toledo. Toledo city council recognized Enriquez with a resolution at the dedication. Enriquez, who played youth baseball as a child and softball in a Mexican-American League, was one of 44 artists from around the country as well as from Amsterdam who submitted proposals for artwork at Fifth Third Field. He was one of only five to have his proposal accepted. Enriquez picked up clothing and expression ideas for the children from the “Little Rascals” short movie series. He cast three local children, including an AfricanAmerican boy from the inner city, an East Toledo girl, and a rural Latino boy, as the models for the sculpture. In addition, Enriquez traveled to the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York to research the time period and the equipment in order to ensure all details were correct. Recently, Enriquez completed a painting commemorating the 500th anniversary of Cortez’s arrival in Mexico April 1519. The painting, backed by lots of research to make it historically accurate, is initially slated to be displayed in Findlay and Toledo. Over the past 30 years, Enriquez has had nearly three dozen selected exhibitions and has won numerous awards. In 1995, the Ohio House of Representatives issued a proclamation to Enriquez for receiving the 1995 Diamante Award for Arts and Culture from the Image at the Sixth Annual Diamante Awards Ball. Over the last 20 years, he traveled to Europe four times. Enriquez, who describes himself as “always curious,” has traveled to over 30 countries enjoying the art and culture of those nations. Some of the renowned art he’s seen and lists as his favorites include Michelangelo’s Pieta, the dome of St. Peter’s Basilica, the Sistine Chapel in Rome, and the “amazing” pillars and tem-

“Young artists often want to be known for their art; yet, as one gets older, it’s not what you have, it’s what you can leave behind.” He went on to say that while “art evolves over time, it is the only thing that truly lasts. Art is a reflection of society and the times,” Enriquez said. Enriquez says he receives artistic inspiration from several artists and mentioned the art of Van Gogh. He enjoys art which touches the emotions through color and light and “makes the viewer reflect on their own lives.”

While complimentary of art produced for commercial purposes, Enriquez says he prefers to apply his artistic abilities to larger projects which are more time consuming and significant to him. He’d “rath-

er do more work that’s socially important and meaningful.” Enriquez’s works of art have been frequently displayed in numerous art museums and community displays in Toledo, Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton, Detroit, and Minnesota.

Community-minded Enriquez was born April 10, 1946 to the late Encarnacion Enriquez and Juanita (Moses) Avila Enriquez in Richmond, Texas. Enriquez is the second-oldest of 12 children. After his father’s untimely death at the age of 34 in 1958, he was raised by his widowed mother, who celebrated her 92nd birthday in 2018. His sister, Esther Spahn, relates that he saved her life during a house fire in the 1959. During the ordeal, he was burned badly and bears the scars from his bravery. While growing up, Enriquez began to display his artist ability in drawings and sketches at around the age of 10. Two of his siblings also dabbled in art. “One visit to his website (www.emanuel-Enrique-art.com) will reveal a man of incredible and diverse artistic talents including work in oil paintings, embossing, abstract stone sculpture, life stone sculpture, and life bronze statues. He has won countless awards, been involved in many professional activities, and has been awarded numerous select commissions,” states a biography edited by alumni association committee member Mike Godfrey. His community involvement earned him the Prizm All-Star for Outstanding Service Award in 2013. The Prizm Creative Community in Bowling Green and Wood County is a supporter of local artists whose work can be seen and purchased in Sam-B’s in Bowling Green. Enriquez will be inducted into the hall of fame along with decorated U.S. Army chaplain Colonel David Bowlus (class of 1989), long time community contributor Robert Bruning (Pemberville High School class of 1950) and internationally recognized geriatric physician and researcher Dr. Jeremy Walston (1979). Tickets for the February 23 Eagle Way Hall of Fame Banquet, to be held at the Pemberville American Legion, are just $25. Tickets may be purchased at the Eastwood High School office, the Pemberville Library, or from any committee member. Visit www.eastwoodschools.org/ EastwoodAlumniAssociation.

Genoa begins quest to defend state dual championship By Press Staff Writer sports@presspublications.com On Saturday, the Genoa wrestling team began its quest to defend last year’s Division III state dual tournament title. Entering the regional tournament Saturday, the Comets had not been beaten in 22 dual meets. Coach Bob Bergman says his team is as ready to defend as it will ever be. “We are excited for the opportunity in front of us. Our kids are battle-tested with over 20 duals under our belts,” Bergman said. “Individually we have traveled to compete in some of the state’s and country’s toughest tournaments. We are coming together as a unit. Our guys know their roles and it is our goal to fire on all cylinders in February.” Getting to host the regional was a bonus, the coach added. “It’s really special to be able to host the entire region at home in front of our fans. If it’s anything like last year it is sure to be an electric atmosphere which is great for the sport of wrestling,” Bergman said prior to the regional event. One year ago, in its first appearance in the team wrestling state tournament, Genoa claimed the D-III title with a 40-20 win over Massillon Tuslaw. The Comets held both of their opponents to single digits in the preliminary rounds, winning 62-6 over Bethel-Tate in the quarterfinals and 50-9 over Versailles in the semifinals. It was the Comets’ first state championship in school history for any sport, but to win that championship there is more strategy involved than the average person might think. As the Comets routed Bethel-Tate in the quarterfinals, Genoa’s assistant coaches remained busy keeping an eye on the other seven teams. In an eight-team tournament, they say it’s about strategically placing your wrestlers in the best situation you can put them in. “We’ve got a great staff, and there is a lot more to the picture than just me,” Bergman said. “We’ve got coaches who didn’t go out to lunch and dinner with us and they watched the Tuslaw-Swanton match, they watched the other quarterfinal matches, and we had some notes on team tendencies and what some other individuals were doing. ” Leading up to this point This season has been one of continued resounding success for the Comets, which was totally expected since the majority of the team returned from last year’s dual team title and also a D-III state championship at the state wrestling meet. In their final invitational before the regional duals, Genoa’s men of the mat shined on the mats at Sandusky St. Mary’s High School as eight Comet wrestlers were crowned champions against D-III opponents. Genoa went 9-0 with a combined team score of 588-100 as they won the prestigious tournament for the third consecutive year. Oscar Sanchez (31-4), Dylan D’Emillio (34-3), Dusty Morgillo (32-3), Kevin Contos (32-2), James Limongi (24-0) Antonio Quezada (32-6), Alex Duran (27-9) and Noah Koch (29-1) were a perfect 9-0 on the weekend. Genoa dominated their pool going 8-0 with wins over Huron, Sandy Valley, St. Mary’s, Northwestern, Hopewell-Louden, Western Reserve, Norwalk St. Paul and

(Press photo by Harold Hamilton/HEHphotos.smugmug.com) A program record of six Genoa wrestlers soared to gold under the lights at the 47th annual Perrysburg Invitational Tournament, scoring more points than 34 other teams. Genoa traded punches all weekend with defending 2018 Division II state dual champions Wauseon, however it was Genoa’s men of the mat who prevailed as the Comets won nine out of ten matches in the medal round in route to piling on more than 34 points (234 to 199½) above the trailing Indians. Oscar Sanchez, Dylan D’Emilio, Morgillo, Contos, Limongi and Koch won individual titles. Martin placed third while Antonio Quezada and Duran took seventh. Devin D’Emilio finished in eighth. Junior Dustin Morgillo collected his 100th career win as he pinned all five of his opponents. Four-time PIT champion Dylan D’Emilio was voted Most Outstanding Wrestler of the event.

In the finals of the 18-team tournament, Genoa downed the state’s No. 3 ranked team, Edison, 38-28, to improve their dual record to 22-0 on the season and continue their unbeaten dual meet streak stemming from last season to 51. Brian Martin (26-6) went 8-1 while Jacob Stewart was 7-0. The tournament title is the fourth tournament crown for the Comets this season. Senior Dylan D’Emillio and James Limongi each were voted lower weight and upper weight outstanding wrestlers respectively. Prior to the championship in Sandusky was a weekend senior All-Ohio heavyweight

wrestler Noah Koch (20-1) won’t soon forget as he went 5-0, earning his 100th career win at the Napoleon Gold Medal Duals. Koch was voted the Most Outstanding Wrestler. Genoa won the eight-team tournament, outscoring the competition 297-60, to improve their dual meet record to 13-0 on the year. Genoa defeated Liberty Center, Norwalk, Mansfield Madison, Fairview and Versailles in route to their third team championship this season. Oscar Sanchez, Dylan D’Emilio, Morgillo, and Contos were also unbeaten in five matches and crowned champions. Darin Muir, Corey Welsh, Duran, Limongi and Quezada each won four bouts for the maroon and grey.

Taking on nationally-ranked Wadsworth Genoa repeated as D-III champions of the Medina Invitational Tournament and placed third overall, scoring 180 points to place behind nationally-ranked Wadsworth (211) and Davison, Mich. (188). Junior Kevin Contos was crowned champion of “The Greatest Show in Wrestling,” going a perfect 5-0 at 152 pounds as he decisioned Brian Case of Davison in the finals, 3-2. Julian Sanchez, D’Emilio and Morgillo finished runner-up for the maroon and grey while Oscar Sanchez and Koch battled their way to third. The Genoa wrestlers were runaway Northern Buckeye Conference dual champions as they rolled over Rossford, 78-4, in the “Impact Zone” under Genoa’s mat lamp lighting. Muir, Dylan D’Emilio, Dustin Morgillo, Contos, Quezada, Brian Martin, Duran, Koch, Randy Matheny, and Devin D’Emilio all recorded falls for the Comets. Genoa finished a perfect 7-0 in the league. Also winning their reserve matches were Sam Beach and Quinton Banks.

Challenge being met by improving Clay swim team By J. Patrick Eaken Press Sports Editor sports@presspublications.com Clay freshman swimmer Joslyn Jurski finished second in the 200 and 500-yard freestyle finals at the Three Rivers Athletic Conference championships. In the 200 freestyle, Juski finished in 31.4, less than half a second behind Fremont Ross senior Olivia DeRodes, who won in 31.08. In the 500, it was DeRodes again who beat her, but by just over one second — close for a distance race. DeRodes finished in 5:18.44, Jurski in 5:19.48. Jurski was also part of the 200-yard medley team of senior Monica Bomyea, sophomore Bella Kennedy and freshman Amber Saxon that finished seventh in 2:07.72. Jurski, Saxon, Kennedy and junior Raecie Jones were ninth in the 400 freestyle relay (4:21.48). “She’s already broken two of our school records and she’s close to most of them. She just missed a third by just a couple hundredths (of a second),” said Clay swim coach Rod Gyurke. “She’s a worker. She loves swimming and she loves to work out, which is a neat characteristic of her. Not a lot of kids do. Some kids do the workout because they have to do it. She loves it. She swims in the morning even by herself sometimes if we don’t have practice. She’s been swimming year-round since she was a kid.” At the 36-team DHL Northwest Ohio Classic, Jurski placed third in the 500 freestyle (5:21.82). She finished behind Cincinnati Mariemont senior Cora Dupre (4:47.5) and Wauseon junior Brooke Schuette (5:14.75). Jurski was sixth in the 200 freestyle (2:00.36), On Clay’s boys team, the Hagedorn brothers have been the top placers — Reuben is a junior and Abram is a sophomore. Abram was sixth in the 200 freestyle (29.63) and Reuben was ninth in the 200 yard intermediate medley (2:17.63). At the TRAC meet, the Hagedorns placed fourth and fifth in the 100 backstroke — Abram in 56.44 and Reuben in 57.41. Ross junior Dylan Weisenauer won

(Press photo by Ken Grosjean) the championship in 54.39, so Abram was just over two seconds behind. The Hagedorn brothers teamed with freshman Alex Ray and senior Todd Gyurke to place sixth in the 200 medley relay, finishing in 1:55. In the 400 freestyle relay, the brothers teamed with Gyurke and freshman Drew Stevens to place seventh (3:48.29). A good share of Clay’s 29 swimmers joined the program since Gyurke became coach two years ago. The Hagedorn brothers’ times are getting better every meet, but because they are veteran swimmers they aren’t dropping as fast as others who are new to the sport, the coach said. “Their times (Hagedorns) don’t drop as much just because both of them are just so good,” Coach Gyurke said. “Both of them have broken their times from last year, and they did this a month ago. Yes, it’s incredible. Both of them have stepped up. “They are only a sophomore and a junior, so they are still going to be here for a while, which is great news for the program. They are both great individuals, also — fun,

spirited, they keep it light-hearted, but yet they are willing to work. Both of them have done just a fabulous job. They have swum in some clubs, and they have been swimming a lot longer since they were young kids.” Abram placed in two events of the consolation final during the DHL NW Ohio Classic and Reuben placed in one. In the eight-team TRAC women’s meet, Clay was fifth, scoring 126 points to finish behind St. Ursula (688½), Ross (526), Findlay (385½) and Notre Dame (381). The boys were also fifth, placing behind St. Francis (728½), Findlay (472), Ross (412) and St. John’s (352½). At the DHL Classic, the girls were in 24th place with 37 points and the boys finished in 29th place with 19 points. The St. Ursula girls also won the girls meet with 512 points, followed by Mariemont (275½). “Sense of pride” On January 12, Clay’s swim team “walked away with a sense of pride,” stat-

ed Heylea Allan and Maisy Dewitt in their story, which they write highlighting each meet. At Fostoria, both teams dominated their opponents by a score of 57-31 for the girls and 57-23 for the boys. The girls have won eight out of the 11 swim meets they’ve competed in and boys have won nine out of 11. Individually, Saxon won the 200 free and 100 backstroke, Jurski won the 200 IM and 500 free, Kennedy won the 100 fly and Bomyea won the 100 breaststroke. For the boys, first place finishers included Reuben Hagedorn in the 200 IM and 100 fly, Abram Hagedorn in the 200 free and 100 backstroke, Todd Gyurke in the 50 and 500 freestyle races, and senior Blake Hornyak won the 100 breaststroke. Coach Gyurke has been impressed with the way his athletes have picked up the sport, considering many are first-year swimmers, including some upperclassmen. “As a coach, we try to always keep perspective and fun involved in it. But, yet we work hard. I have kids who play other sports from soccer to softball to track, and they’ll tell you this is the hardest sport they’ve ever done,” Gyurke said. Besides placing in relays at the TRAC meet, Coach Gyurke’s son Todd, a secondyear swimmer, won the 500 when Clay hosted its first home swim meet against Lima Senior at the Eastern Community YMCA. Clay Athletic Director Mark Beach has seen the way Coach Gyurke runs his ship, and he’s impressed. It is just what Clay was looking for, plus the coach says he is lucky to have a solid assistant in Chris Peters. “Two years ago, Dave Stannert, the Y swim guy, moved to Perrysburg for a different position, which required us to search for a solution for a coach. Dave had been a coach for multiple kids at multiple schools. We had a team, but we didn’t necessarily have a coach,” Beach said. “So we hired Rod Gyurke and he’s been fabulous in terms of we now have our own true coach who coaches just our team, and Rod has been involved and been great. As part of that process, he’s just continually trying to build the program.”

Stritch well-established as elite program regionally By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com The 13-3 Cardinal Stritch boys basketball team is in the midst of another successful season and seeking to get a trip to the Division III regional tournament. The Cardinals may have to get past sixth-ranked Genoa (13-0) and 14th-ranked Evergreen (12-2) and then could match up with No. 1 Archbold (15-0) or No. 7 OttawaGlandorf (12-2) at the D-III regional. Stritch has already provided Evergreen with one of their two losses. This year, a district title and a conference championship are both in their sights as the Cardinals sit at 5-1 in the Toledo Area Athletic Conference. Three other teams were 4-2 heading into the weekend, however. Stritch has accumulated a record of 57-10 over the last three years while winning a district championship and a Toledo Area Athletic Conference title. In Jamie Kachmarik’s five seasons coaching the team, the Cardinals are 89-28 (.761) and have won two district titles and three sectional championships while building one of the area’s best programs. This year’s club is led by two seniors — 5-foot-10 Jordan Burton and 6-3 Little Anderson — and a junior in 6-2 Joey Holifield. The three represent a balanced scoring attack and play with an enthusiasm for the game. Burton is the point guard, Holifield is the shooting guard and Anderson is the wing. The starting lineup also includes two posts, Ashton Caryer (6-6) and Nolan Finch (6-7), and Jhaiden Wilson (5-6), Justin Wiggins (6-3) and Ben Dunsmore (6-0) round out the rotation. Coach Jamie Kachmarik says team defense is an important part of Stritch’s identity, but the Cardinals can also score and rebound the ball well. Burton (15 pts., 4.4 reb.), Holifield (14.1 pts., 6.8 reb.) and Anderson (14.3 pts., 7.1 reb.) average a combined 43 points. “It’s really important because, night in and night out, any one of them can be the top scorers. Wilson and Finch are threats to score, too,” said Kachmarik. “Finch scored 18 points in the win over Emmanuel Christian and has scored in double figures in six games this year.” Wilson averages 8.8 points and Finch puts 6.7 points and 4.1 rebounds per game and Caryer helps on the rebounding front, averaging 5.1. This year’s club features its share of size and athleticism and can shoot the ball well, too. “We’re more athletic, we use more full-court pressure and we’re pushing the ball. As a whole, this might be one of my better outside shooting teams,” said Kachmarik. “We’re shooting a very good percentage as a team, almost 40 percent from 3-point range. That’s very good, especially for a high-school team. We have a balance of scorers inside and out. We’re a little bit bigger inside. That’s a little bit of a change in our overall size and team length.” That size and athleticism has especially helped on the defensive end, helping the Cardinals to force turnovers and defend the post. This year, Stritch, which has defeated five Division I teams, has given up 50 or more points in just four games this season.

with 25 points and hit a number of key baskets. Anderson also contributed, scoring 20 points. Stritch also knocked Evergreen from the ranks of the unbeaten earlier this season by defeating the Vikings, 67-54. Burton had a team-high 18 points and Anderson and Holifield helped key an 18-0 run in the first half that saw the Cardinals take control of the game. The Cardinals also defeated Maumee Valley Country Day (80-49) and beat Collins (Ky.) and Stewarts Creek (Tenn.) in the Sonic Slam Tournament in Lebanon,

Tennessee before falling in the finals. The tournament presented tremendous challenges for Stritch, but Kachmarik says his team answered the call. “It was a tournament we were invited to in Lebanon, Tennessee. I thought it would be a great experience with the team. All the teams were the size of Division I schools,” Kachmarik said. “It was a great time to bond, it was a great experience for the team and we had success. We have 186 students and we were competing against schools with 1,800 to 2,500 students. The first team we beat, Collins, near Louisville, is ranked in the top-10 this season. They had two really good players that are going to be Division I college athletes,” continued Kachmarik. “Then we played Stewart’s Creek out of Murfreesboro and the last game was against Blackman High School out of Murfreesboro. They were very good, and it came down to the very end. I think (our players) represented Cardinal Stritch very well. Principal Melissa Empie went to the tournament with us and complimented us with how well they handled themselves.” The winning ways have brought a swagger and a confidence to a group that expects to compete in the tournament. “Now, expectations are higher that we’ve put on ourselves and the coaching staff is putting on our kids. I think it makes our kids focused and hungry. When you start to look at postseason, you know you’re going to challenged,” said Kachmarik. “Our expectations are there. Every team is 0-0 when you get into the postseason. That’s what we try to focus on. You know that every team is the same. Everyone is going for that same goal. We don’t look too far ahead. It’s one game at a time. (The players) know what it takes.”

Minimize 2018 Income Taxes

Juniors add more depth By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Every wrestler has his or her own motivation for doing well on the mat, and Gibsonburg juniors David Garcia and Jarrett Spoores certainly fit the bill. They provide more strength to a deep roster that is led by seniors Bradley Mendoza and Brady Jaso. Garcia has something to prove to himself and his older brother; Spoores has the same goal, only with his father. Garcia wrestles in the 132-pound weight class this season after competing at 120 his freshman year and 126 last season, when he put together a 29-10 record. Garcia, who is 19-4 this season with individual titles at the Plymouth Invitational and Celina Invitational, has an older brother, Antonio Vasquez, who wrestled for four years at Gibsonburg. “I want to impress my brother,” Garcia said. “We’re close. He trained me a lot when we were growing up, and he’s who I looked up to when I wanted to wrestle, basically. I want to be a state placer. I’m just really trying to make it to state this year and place. That would mean a lot. My brother didn’t make it, so I would have that over him.” Spoores, a 195-pounder, is the son of Gibsonburg coach Greg Spoores. He went 36-12 at 182 pounds last season and has 79 career wins. Jarrett was also a junior-high state qualifier as an eighth-grader, but a neck injury forced him to miss nearly all of his freshman season. He’s 28-5 with 26 pins this season, with titles at the Golden Bear, Mohawk, and Plymouth invitationals. He was a runner-up at the Van Buren and Celina tournaments. “He’s been in wrestling since he was a young kid,” coach Spoores said. “He got into it when he was 5 or 6. I gave up varsity coaching to coach him in biddy, and I stayed with him until middle school. When he was in middle school, I took the (Gibsonburg) varsity job again.” Wrestling for your father can be challenging. Jarrett categorizes it as “definitely different.” “What would be weird would be being without him in my corner,” Jarrett said. “He’s been there since I started wrestling and he taught me what I know. We definitely have our times where we butt heads about conditioning and how hard I work and what I do during the season. I take it because he’s my dad, but I definitely get where he’s coming from.” Jarrett also tries to make an impression on Matt Lauck, a Gibsonburg assistant coach who placed third at the state tournament as a heavyweight at Elmwood. “He says he had 37 pins his senior year,” Jarrett said. “My goal is to top that and say I beat him. I’m competitive, and

me and him are exactly alike. I just like to one-up him. He drills and works with me a lot in the (practice) room and he holds that (pin total) over my head. He’s around 270 (pounds) and he makes me learn how to wrestle different, having somebody heavier.” Coach Spoores said he realizes he’s often tougher and more demanding of Jarrett than the rest of the team. The Bears have 16 wrestlers this season and are in their first year competing in the Sandusky Bay Conference. “I know what his potential is,” coach Spoores said. “He’s my son, so I feel more responsible to see that he fulfills his potential. He’s wrestled very well this season. He does very well on top, obviously, with 26 pins. He has improved his ‘down’ wrestling tremendously. He’s looking to put all the pieces together to get one of those top-four places at district to advance to state.” Garcia was two wins away from qualifying for the state tournament last year when he suffered an injury and had to default in the consolation semifinals at the district tournament. “I think I could have made it to state,” he said. “It felt like I tore something during the middle of a match. The doctor said I tore my groin. It was my match to place at district. It happened in the first period and it hurt pretty bad. I feel good now.” Coach Spoores said he’s looking for Garcia and Jarrett to join seniors Brad Mendoza and Brady Jaso at the state tournament. Mendoza is a two-time state placer. “Having Brad in the room, they wrestle with him every day and they see how hard he works,” coach Spoores said. “It’s paying off for all the kids in the room, getting workouts with him, either in the weight room or at practice. We have a lot of young kids this year who are very impressionable, and they are following that junior and senior leadership.” Garcia said practicing against Mendoza has forced him to step up his game this season. “I feel a lot better conditioning-wise and technique-wise because of the teammates I have,” Garcia said. “I drill with Brad every day. He teaches me a lot of stuff and shows me what I need to correct. When we go live, he keeps pushing me and I don’t get that tired in tournaments anymore. I try to put everything on the mat. Sometimes I still lose, but that’s fine.” Jarrett Spoores competed at the state tournament in middle school, and he said he’s more than ready to experience that same feeling this season. “I just want to make it to state,” he said. “I’ve watched the high school state tournament for a long time, and I think about what it would feel like to be there and look up at thousands of people. That’s one goal I want to experience.”
