Trash pickup, drainage among topics By Katie Siebenaller Press Staff Writer katiesieb@presspublications.com

“
I’m glad to see all these people here. I just wish that we would see a few more at our meetings.
“
Four candidates running for two seats on the Jerusalem Township Board of Trustees discussed various topics at a public forum on Thursday at the Christ Dunberger American Legion Post. The Oregon Republican Club sponsored the event. Julie VanNest and Beau Miller are challenging trustees David Bench and Ronald Sheahan, who are running for re-election. Both the Oregon Republican Club and the candidates were pleased with the event turnout. “I’m glad to see all these people here. I just wish that we would see a few more at our meetings,” Bench quipped. “Government’s main responsibility is the health and safety of the people,” said Bench. There are many services and issues the board of trustees must be aware of and strive to maintain or better for the township. One such service is trash pickup.
ship’s largest expenses. Currently, the cost is covered by revenue the township receives from Maumee Bay State Park. However, trash pickup is not unlimited. There is unlimited pickup on set dates, but each occasion cost the township an additional $5,000 to $6,000. Residents are restricted to setting two 30-gallon trash bags at the curb each pickup, something they would like to change.
Options to resolve this issue include funding a different service for trash pickup, or paying additional fees to have larger quantities collected. Sheahan defended the township-wide collection. “Providing refuse pickup keeps the township clean,” he said. If elected, Miller would like to see the township gain curbside recycling. If it is outside of the township’s budget, opening two more recycling centers is an alternative. Bench and Sheahan addressed drainage and ditch cleaning, since the township has seen more flooding in recent years. The incumbents described efforts to curb and prevent flooding, as well as new equipment purchased to better groom ditches, since 2011. New equipment and updates have not only made the upkeep of ditches easier, but have saved the township money. Lack of funds With a budget of just over one million dollars, many of the township’s departments do not have the funds to immediateContinued on page 2

No parking on the front lawn By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Oregon is looking at an amendment to the zoning code that gives police the authority to enforce a parking ban on unpaved portions of the front lawns of residentially zoned property. Currently, the zoning code prohibits parking of vehicles on unpaved areas of a front lawn. The code states that “No person shall park or stand, or leave unattended, or cause to leave parked or unattended, a vehicle, motorcycle, boat, recreational vehicle, or vehicle of any kind within a front yard except on paved or gravel surfaces on any residential property or vacant lot.” Due to the notice requirements and time parameters to take corrective action under the zoning code, the primary thrust of the amendment would be to broaden the authority of the Oregon Police Division to enforce the parking ban. “This is something that can be enforced in the zoning code, but it also allows police to enforce parking in Oregon that is not on gravel or a paved surface,” said City Administrator Mike Beazley. “Clean and simple. Police would have that authority.” Although the amendment would essentially give police the authority to ticket cars that are parked on dirt or grass, police can exercise discretion whether or not to do so, he added. He compared it to the police using discretion to ticket a motorist going 37 mph in a 35 mph speed limit zone. “They don’t have to give me a ticket,” he said. Party or event Police would have the flexibility to allow parking on grass if there is a party or event at the address, said Beazley. “If there’s an event, they’ll have the discretion to move beyond that. We could even include a reference in the code to parties and events, implying flexibility. Same Continued on page 5

Jerusalem Twp. Continued from front page ly implement the creation of large projects. They are required to do some saving first, which is why the Jerusalem Township Recreation Fields has been seeing more and more development. Various sports fields are being added, along with plans for a walking trail. A tight budget has kept the Board of Trustees from reviving Kennedy Park, a project that VanNest and Miller believe needs attention. The two believe the park, in its current state, dishonors John Kennedy, a firefighter for the township who had died in the line of duty. They are determined, if elected, to find ways to fund the project, whether through grants or donations. New metropark In addition to the recreation fields and parks like Kennedy, the township will soon be gaining a Metropark: Howard Marsh. “I know with the Metroparks coming in we want to make sure our township is beautiful, acceptable and nicely presented to the residents of our township,” VanNest remarked. Howard Marsh is cause for excitement and concern for the township. On one hand, the Metropark will attract visitors and potential consumers to the area. But on the other hand, it could create circumstances for more fire department runs and law enforcement, which would cost the township, not the Metropark. The next board of trustees will have to tackle this issue. Fire Department When it came to the subject of the township’s fire department, the same opinion was unanimous among the four candidates. “Trustees are very involved in the township to make sure our fire department is well equipped and maintained, and they get what they need to get the job done,” Sheahan said. Each candidate pledged to work closely with and support the Jerusalem Township Fire Department. Not only do

The second annual Northwood Fall Festival will be held in Central Park near Oram Drive on Saturday on October 14. It kicks off at 11 a.m. with a parade that starts at Northwood Commons (formerly the Great Eastern Shopping Center) on Woodville Road heading east before turning down Mary Avenue towards Central Park, according to Patrick McGaharan, chairman of the festival. Over 50 vendors with food, beverages, and crafts will be on hand, as will as a DJ, exhibitors, a car show, a beekeeper, and a kids’ area. Beer and wine will also be available. Identification will be required. The kids’ area features games, a rock climbing wall, extreme trampoline, face painting, pumpkin painting, a book exchange, and more. “The kids really liked the rock climbing wall last year,” he said. Children and adults will also be able to pose for fun photos in face cut-outs.
book. A $5 wristband will give children access to all activities throughout the day, said McGaharan. There will be bands during the day and evening, including Duet To-It, Engine 19, and 56Daze. “We only had one band last year. This year, we’ll have entertainment throughout the day,” he said. Also featured will be Jacob Smith, a wood carver, a junior firefighter challenge, and junior and adult cornhole tournaments. Winners of the tournaments will receive prizes. The junior cornhole tournament begins at 1 p.m. Participants must be middle school or high school. No registration fee. Registration at the event will be from 12:15 p.m. to 12:45 p.m. Prizes will be awarded.
The adult cornhole tournament starts at 3 p.m. It is $20 per person. Individuals will be paired up. First place prize is $250 and second place prize is $100. Prior registration guarantees participation. Registration is from 2:15 p.m. to 2:45 p.m. Judges will also declare the winner of a scarecrow contest in which participants create scarecrows. The scarecrow must be at the Central Park Shelter House by Noon on Oct. 14. “People decorate and make a scarecrow, bring it to the festival, and one of them is declared the winner. We had about 15 entrants last year, and we hope to have more this year,” he said. Attendance McGaharan said last year’s attendance was much more than he had expected. “It was overwhelming. It was the first year. We never thought we’d have that many people,” he said. “We are a small group [of organizers]. We were extremely busy the whole day, which was good.” This year, there are more vendors, he added. “We’re up to 55 vendors now. So we have quite a few. More than we had last year.” Northwood City Administrator Bob Anderson said he enjoyed last year’s festival. “I liked the food, and playing cornhole. I’m not much of a cornhole player, but I did OK. They have a pretty good lineup this year. Looks like there will be something for the whole family,” he said.
Funding plan for cemetery purchase OK’d The Lake Township trustees Tuesday approved a fund transfer to help pay for the purchase of 6.7 acres that will be used to expand the township cemetery. The trustees approved an advance from the general fund of $40,000 to the cemetery fund. The advance will be repaid to the general fund in increments of $10,000 over the next four years. The acreage, located adjacent to the cemetery, will add about 10 to 15 years worth of space to the cemetery, the trustees estimate, but an unused section of the cemetery will be developed prior to an expansion. That section is located along the west side of the cemetery. Waterlines and tiling will have to be installed in the new acreage, Richard Welling, a trustee, said. He said Ron Hanely, cemetery sexton, has recommended letting the new property remain undisturbed for the next few years.

He said the levy is needed to fund the service because LifeStar, which has had a contract with the township, is getting out of the service and focusing on transports between hospitals. Zoning hearing In other business, the trustees have scheduled a hearing for Oct. 17 at 6 p.m. to consider a request for a zoning change to a parcel located at the intersection of East Broadway and Walbridge roads. Joseph Hirzel is requesting the change for the 26.5-acre parcel from M-1 light industrial to M-2 heavy industrial. Welling said a business adjacent to the parcel has expressed an interest in purchasing the property.

Oregon man charged after standoff By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com A 77-year-old man who allegedly discharged a firearm from his home on Saturday, Sept. 30, in a standoff with police for over two hours was charged in Oregon Municipal Court last Monday. Robert Stinehart was charged with firing a firearm while intoxicated and discharging a firearm into an occupied habitat. Stinehart allegedly barricaded himself in his home on Bonnie Doone Dr. when police arrived. A standoff with police lasted over two hours. The judge declared him indigent, and an attorney was appointed to represent him. He was being held at the Lucas County jail in lieu of $100,000 bond. A pretrial hearing was set for Oct. 6.

Income tax replacement on Nov. ballot By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com Voters in the Gibsonburg Exempted Village School District will decide a 1 percent income tax issue on the Nov. 7 ballot. Prior to voting, district residents will have three opportunities to discuss the issue with the school board and administration. Informational sessions are scheduled for Oct. 10, 17 and 24 at 7 p.m. at the high school to field questions from the public, Tim Murray, district superintendent, said. The ballot language states an additional income tax of 1 percent is being requested, but the district is actually seeking a replacement levy of 1 percent for five years. Currently, a 0.75 percent income tax is being levied on earned income of district residents. If voters approve the ballot measure, it would go into effect Jan. 1, 2019. According to district figures, the 0.75 percent issue collects about $800,000 annually. A 1 percent income tax is expected to generate about $1.2 million a year. “We’ve really tried to be more frugal
in our spending,” Murray said. “We went through a reduction in force (RIF) in the spring of 2016. Now we’re down in the high 60s percent range for salaries and benefits as a percentage of our operating budget. There are not many schools that can claim that.” State revenues to the district dropped by $1.4 million in the prior biennium budget and Gibsonburg will likely see another drop of about $370,000 in the state’s current spending plan, he added. A drop in student enrollment was a factor in the loss in the previous biennium. Still, the impact on the district from the current state budget is also being felt. “We’re trying to offset that loss. We’re never going to be able to offset the previous biennium budget loss. That was devastating and that’s why we had to go through a RIF. If we can get that additional quarter percent we can start putting ourselves in a better situation financially as we look to the future,” Murray said. “We’re still operating in the black and I think we’re being very good stewards of the taxpayers’ money. But we have no cushion. If we lose a boiler or a roof, we’re scraping pennies.”

If the income tax is approved, the administration and board may consider bringing some programs back such as elementary school art. Murray and the board are emphasizing the income tax is collected from earned income such as salaries and wages but not from Social Security payments and pensions. The Oct. 10 and 24 forums will be dedicated to the income tax request. The Oct. 17 session will also be a candidate night for those running for seats on the school board, village council and Madison Township board of trustees. Four candidates are vying for three seats on the school board: incumbents Scott Pertner, Caesar Mendoza and Sheryl Krotzer are being challenged by Jackie Kidd-Lutzmann. Five candidates are in the race for four seats on village council: incumbents Ken Cantrell, Charles Gerwin and Donald Kerwin are being challenged by Ashley Brown and Randy Maynard. Maynard served on council in the past. Kent Kirsch and Andrew Gerbich are the only candidates for two seats on the board of trustees.
Shots fired Oregon Police were dispatched to Bonnie Doone Dr. near Lake Erie at about 5:30 p.m. on a report of shots fired, according to police. Responding officers, upon arriving in the area, reported shots fired as well. Although Stinehart allegedly shot at responding officers, it was not known if officers were targeted. No officers, or any other individuals, were injured as a result of the gun fire. It was determined that the shots were coming from the residence at 2026 Bonnie Doone, and the possible suspect was Stinehart. Breached garage Police had attempted to make contact with Stinehart by phone and by means of a public address system, but he would not respond, according to police. Officers were able to get close enough to the residence to see that Stinehart was on the floor of the garage of the residence, possibly injured. Police, concerned that he may be in a medical emergency, breached the garage of the residence with the assistance of the Toledo Police Department’s BearCat battering ram. Though several weapons were in the immediate vicinity of Stinehart, he was apprehended with little resistance and taken to St. Charles Hospital to be treated for injuries that he had sustained on his own. The Lucas County Sheriff's deputies, Ohio State Highway Patrol, and Toledo and Maumee police assisted the Oregon police in the incident.

Oregon looks to police Sports Center fire, to enforce parking ban Starr Avenue, February 1963 Continued from front page way the Ohio Revised Code prohibits gambling, but it’s not against the law to have a World Series pool, or NCAA brackets, or March Madness.” There could also be separate instances when a gravel surface isn’t properly grandfathered, he added. “Right now, I’m not allowed to go out and gravel my front yard because the law requires that it be a dust free surface. The exception to that is if my yard was graveled before that change in the law a number of years ago. The zoning department has records on that. We’re not going to ask the police to go out and make judgments like that. If it’s on a gravel or paved surface, they’re not going to get a ticket. If on dirt or grass, then the police would have the right to ticket. If there’s a question about grandfathering, then the zoning department would deal with that and cite them.” Combat blight The objective of the proposed amendment to the zoning code is to make it easier for the city to respond and enforce violations to combat blight to a neighborhood and to help ensure the maintenance of property values. “It’s one of those things we decided to deal with separate from the property maintenance code,” said Beazley. The city is currently discussing the desire for a property maintenance code, though Beazley said it is a work in progress and may take months to finalize. “Next week, we’ll be getting an updated version of the property maintenance code that is much slimmed down compared to the last one that members were presented with. It’s a good starting point. But this is an issue that we are dealing with separately. We want to deal with it in the clearest way we could. Our law director came up with what I think is a good plan,”
said Beazley. Councilman Tim Zale asked how the law would be enforced. “The enforcement instrument on this, since this is in the parking code, would it just basically be putting a parking ticket on the car, or is it reserved as a summons?” he asked Law Director Melissa Purpura. “It would be a parking ticket that would be put on the car,” she said. “They would run the plate, find out who the registered owner is, then ticket the car.” Discretion Zale, a retired Oregon police officer, said he liked what the ordinance stands for, but still had an issue with police using discretion. “I’m still bothered by the fact that we’re going to overlook people who have gatherings or parties,” said Zale. “I don’t know how you’re going to overlook that without some kind of mention of that within the ordinance itself because I don’t know how we define that. You’ll run into more residents who want to park two cars in their front yards, and they’ll always maintain they have a function going on in their houses. The ordinance does not allow it, whether they have a gathering or legitimate function. So I don’t know how you work around it.” “Among the things we anticipated was presenting this tonight, getting a reaction, and doing another tweak based on that feedback by the next meeting,” said Beazley. “There are a lot of places in a municipal code where police are expected to exercise their discretion. The concern is, are we always going to have the judgment and the team that we trust to exercise that discretion.’ Those are the questions we have. Council President Dennis Walendzak referred the proposed amendment to the next council meeting for further discussion.

Voters to decide tech levy By Press Staff Writer
“
Our hope is to beef up our Chromebook use and go one-to-one through the entire district.
“
The Genoa school district is looking to increase funding for classroom technology with revenues from a 0.5-mill, 5-year levy on the Nov. 7 ballot. ‘Our hope is to beef up our Chromebook use and go one-to-one through the entire district,” said Michael Ferguson, district superintendent. “Right now we’re at two students to one Chromebook in the elementary and middle schools.” If passed, the levy will generate about $89,000 annually but it won’t result in a higher tax bill for property owners. The administration has refinanced bonds issued to help fund the construction of the elementary and middle schools, allowing the Ottawa County auditor to rollback the bond millage by 0.5 mill. In all, the refinancing is saving the district about $982,740: $760,750 on the elementary school and $221,990 on the John C. Roberts Middle School building, accord-
ing to figures compiled by Bill Nye, district treasurer. Revenues from the levy on the Nov. ballot may also be used to update software, network servers and WiFi systems, he said. Village levies Voters in the Village of Genoa will be asked to renew a 1.3-mill, 5-year levy used to maintain Veteran’s Memorial Park and to approve an additional 2 mills for 5 years for police department operations.

Holcomb works closely with James Smith, of Oak Harbor, to help manage his property along the Portage River. Under Holcomb’s guidance, Smith enrolled his land in multiple projects that have, to date, protected well over 60 acres of this sensitive habitat. Because of the variety of work done on the Smith farm, the Ottawa SWCD also rec-
Ag Notes ognized Smith as the Cooperator of the Year. Smith bought his farm in the early 1990s, but the property had been under SWCD conservation plans since 1959. He immediately began working with the Ottawa SWCD restoring dikes that needed repaired and managing the wetlands and farm ground on the property. Over the years, Smith has enhanced the property and worked with his neighbors to solve drainage issues and to enhance wildlife. He has planted five acres of tree windbreaks, 20 acres of prairie grasses, six acres

We should ask ourselves every day what we can do to make a positive change in the world. This doesn't mean that we have to do something earth-shattering or radical every day, but we should do what we can, remembering that more is expected of those to whom much is given. Sometimes a positive change can come from something as simple as a smile or a kind word, and other times it may require significant effort or risk. One way to bring about positive change is to be a good role model or a mentor. If you work as a teacher or in the creative arts, you have a tremendous power to change people's lives. But even if you simply work in some area where you

Helping area families have happy holidays To the editor: The Ottawa County Holiday Bureau is busy preparing for its 55th year of helping local residents have a Merry Christmas by providing food, toys and hygiene and cleaning products. The Holiday Bureau has always had a strong base of support from individuals, schools, churches and businesses and we hope for that continued support this year. During the Christmas season, the Holiday Bureau makes preparations to help individuals and families in need, in Ottawa County. Assistance from the community is essential by donating food, toys and monetary donations. In 2016, our goals were realized through contributions we received from the community. Through your generosity, we were able to help 659 families in Ottawa County. That meant helping a total of 1,887 individuals, 1,002 adults and 885 children 18 years and younger. If you would like to donate, volunteer or need assistance please contact one of the representatives in your area. All applications are due by Dec. 1.

Remembering heroes To the editor: The Ottawa County Wreath Committee would like to first thank the community for their support in bringing Wreaths Across America to the veterans’ graves in the Marblehead and Elmore area cemeteries in December 2016. With your help, we placed more than 1,600 Christmas wreaths at the final resting place of our Ottawa County heroes. The mission of Wreaths Across America is “Remember, Honor, Teach.” It is carried out in part by coordinating wreathlaying ceremonies in December at cemeteries in all 50 states and beyond. The event is made possible by thousands of volunteers who organize local ceremonies, raise funds to sponsor wreaths, and participate in the events. We are currently fundraising to purchase the wreaths for 2017 National Wreaths Across America Day. Based on Memorial Day flags placed last year, there are approximately 1,908 veterans interred in Port Clinton- and Catawba-area cemeteries. In order to complete our long-term mission to cover all of Ottawa County, we continue to rely on the support of all donors past and present. The wreaths may be sponsored for $15 each. Will you help us say their names so
they are not forgotten and place a Christmas wreath on the grave of an American hero? Currently, we the committee are respectfully requesting financial support to bring Wreaths Across America to the veteran graves in the Port Clinton and Catawba area in December 2017. As a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, all contributions made to Wreaths Across America are tax deductible to the fullest extent allowable. Donations of any monetary amount are appreciated and should be sent to the Ottawa County Veterans Service Office c/o Sara Toris, 8444 W.

Global greed and oil To the editor: How much did the oil companies pay you to print their propaganda about job loss from regulations? The oil companies have spent many millions denying global warming caused by burnt fuel. They choose to frame it as a loss of jobs because of regulations. Why not spend some of their billions of dollars in profits and build plants to save the world and human life? Oh, that’s right; it’s cheaper to murder people than spend money. We have just had three major hurricanes caused by changing air currents and many more to come – just as predicted by climate scientists.
What will you do today to make your life better? Do you want to make positive changes in your life? Are there situations you are not happy with? Are you pursuing one or more goals? Is there a problem you want to fix? Can you identify at least one objective you would like to accomplish? If your answer to any of these questions is yes, the next question you must answer is, “what will you do today to make it happen?” The answer identifies the positive action you will be taking in order to actually accomplish something. Action is the only way to transform your desires into reality. Without action, nothing happens. Without action, all of your desires remain only wishes. In spite of the importance of taking action, too many people don’t have a definitive plan for exactly what they want to accomplish each day. Instead each day is spent dealing with emergencies as they arise. There is little or no focus on specific objectives. Basically, these people drift through each day. At the end of a day, an often heard comment is, “I really didn’t get that much done today.” There are various impediments to taking effective action each day. Lack of planning is a major one. Without a definite plan, you won’t get much done. Accomplishments are hit or miss. Time is wasted through inefficiency. Create a detailed plan, with specific steps, for what you want to accomplish today. Set priorities. Use your plan to guide your action. Stay focused. Adjust your plan as needed to accommodate emergen-

Dare to Live
by Bryan Golden cies or changes in priorities. Your goal is getting things done. Procrastination is the black hole of time. Putting tasks off into the future creates stress, exacerbates problems, puts you behind schedule, and causes missed opportunities. Procrastination is an awful habit which is easily broken. Fear feeds procrastination. Not knowing where to begin, being apprehensive about making mistakes, or doubting your ability to be successful, are all factors contributing to procrastination. Putting off what you need to do, for whatever reason, is not a formula for success. You begin getting something done by taking small steps. The log jam of procrastination can be broken by devoting just 15 minutes to a task you have been putting off. This effective technique gets you into action. Once you have some momentum, you are much more likely to complete important tasks. As you become adept at ending your procrastination, your willingness to plan ahead will grow. You’ll start looking forward to each days plan knowing how much you can now accomplish. As a result, you
will get more done in less time. Your upward spiral builds confidence in your ability to be productive. In addition to knowing what you will do today, you must also set priorities. Working on low priority tasks first isn’t a prudent strategy. People do this because low priority tasks are often easier to accomplish. However, when your high priority tasks have not been completed, your stress increases and negative consequences arise. Each day you must identify your highest priority task. This item should receive the most attention. Ensuring that your most important task is completed significantly boosts your productivity, while reducing your stress level. Your highest priority may be difficult, requiring substantial effort. Shifting to something easier instead neglects your highest priority, which often causes a crisis situation to develop. Anything worthwhile takes effort. Taking the path of least resistance will not lead to your dreams. Start each day with a plan for what you want to accomplish. Spend the day taking the necessary action to complete your plan. Following this strategy is how goals are reached and changes are made. NOW AVAILABLE: “Dare to Live Without Limits,” the book.

We see the same spirit of greed by farmers who are responsible for the algae growing in our lakes. They too want to get rid of regulations and let the algae take over our drinking water. Greed is killing America. Human life is worth less than money as corporations and Republicans would rather kill people than have sensible regulations to protect life. Albert Kapustar Oregon Editor’s note: The letter alludes to an article in the Sept. 25 issue of The Press covering a press conference held by Toledo Mayor Paula Hicks-Hudson, a Democrat, and Oregon Mayor Mike Seferian, an Independent. The mayors and others expressed concern the EPA’s Renewable Fuel Standard requirements put an unfair financial burden on the Toledo Oil Refinery. The standards were included in a bill signed into law by President George W. Bush, a Republican.

Resilience in mental health
Survivor wants experience to be catharsis for change that he had bi-polar depression and starting doing something about it. Today, he says it is not about the suicide attempt, but it is about his efforts toward suicide prevention since then. He said the ripple effect has followed him his whole life, and even today he struggles to gain respect from family and former friends, including his brother. His father, Pat Hines, says that to this day, every time he hears the phone ring, he fears that he is getting another call that Kevin has attempted suicide. “I really didn’t want to hurt anybody, but I hurt a lot of people,” Kevin Hines said. “Today, I am truly grateful to the tenth degree for every millisecond I get to walk this earth. I’m grateful because of all the things I get to do because I almost couldn’t.”
By J. Patrick Eaken Press Staff Writer news@presspublications.com At Eastwood and Northwood high schools last Wednesday, Kevin Hines, a suicide attempt survivor, shared his story of resilience and finding hope after struggling with mental illness and attempting suicide. Suicide is the second leading cause of death for people between the ages of 10 and 24. Hines was 19-years-old when he attempted, and survived, a suicide attempt jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. “The fall would break his body, but not his spirit. His story chronicles the extraordinary will of the author to live mentally well in the face of his mental illness: bipolar disorder with psychotic features. Kevin’s story is a remarkable testament to the strength of the human spirit and a reminder to us to love the life we have. His story also reminds us that living mentally well takes time, endurance, hard work, and support,” it says on his website, www.kevinhinesstory.com. Hines spoke to Eastwood students in grades 7-12 in a Wednesday assembly, then to Northwood students, and then to parents and community members in the Northwood High cafeteria on Wednesday night. Eastwood, which allowed legal guardians the option of withdrawing their child from the school assembly, introduced the speaker through a letter from David H. Riley, high school principal. “We recognize that the topic of suicide is difficult for many people to speak openly about,” Riley wrote. “Avoiding the subject may actually make things worse. Talking about their feelings with a caring person may encourage a suicidal person to seek help. “In recent surveys, the number of students reporting serious thoughts of suicide was up in many grades. The number of students who reported attempting suicide had risen in many grades as well,” Riley’s letter continued. Project AWARE Wood County, with the support of the Wood County Suicide Prevention Coalition and the Wood County Educational Service Center hosted Hine’s presentations in Wood County school districts. In the summer of 2013, Hines released his bestselling memoir titled Cracked Not Broken, Surviving and Thriving After A Suicide Attempt. He has been featured in the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Huffington Post, and Time, Newsweek and People magazines. He is currently producing a documentary entitled Suicide: The Ripple Effect. Less than one percent survival rate Hines says his bi-polar disorder kicked in at age 17 when doctors pulled him off medications he had been taking since fourth grade to treat his epilepsy. Doctors did not realize at the time that the medi-
Kevin Hines. (Press photo by Ken Grosjean) cation was also an anti-depressant. He began hearing voices and having paranoid thoughts that people around him wanted to kill him. He kept that information from his parents and others, believing they would think he was “crazy.” Two years later, in September 2000, Kevin Hines leapt off the Golden Gate Bridge, a method of suicide attempt that has resulted in death for most of the 2,000 people who have made that jump since the bridge was erected in 1937. He said that if anybody, on the bus ride to the bridge, or even the thousands of tourists on the bridge, noticed that he was crying and asked to help him, it could have spared him from even making the jump. He is one of only 36 (less than one percent) to survive the fall and he is considered the only Golden Gate Bridge jump survivor who is actively spreading the message of living mentally healthy around the globe. Hines’ website describes his story, stating “The Golden Gate Bridge is one of the most recognizable structures to define a modern city. Yet, for author Kevin Hines the bridge is not merely a marker of a place or a time. Instead, the bridge marks the begin-

ning of his remarkable story. At 19-yearsold, Kevin attempted to take his own life by jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge — a distance which took four seconds to fall.” During his Wednesday night presentation in Northwood, Hines said the second he left the bridge, he regretted jumping and from that second on it became a fight for survival. Of 26 survivors still alive today, Hines said 19 have stated they regretted jumping the second they left the bridge, just like he did. He fell 225 feet at 75 miles-per-hour, and says when you hit water at that speed it is much like hitting concrete. Once he did hit, he plunged another 70 feet into the water and with his mobility limited because of severe injuries, he struggled to reach the surface without drowning. In addition, he thought a shark was circling him in the water while he fought off hypothermia, but found out years later from a witness that it was a sea lion. Doctors told him he missed severing his spinal cord by two millimeters and had given him a 50-50 chance of surviving his first night in the hospital. It took him seven more psych ward stays over the next 11 years, from 2000-11, until he realized he needed to quit denying

Abandoned in the streets for drugs During his motivational presentation, which took an hour and a half Wednesday night in front of nearly 100 area residents at Northwood High School, Hines addressed countless solutions to suicide prevention and mental health. It also hit close to home as he addressed those in the crowd who may have been personally affected by a close family member or a friend’s suicide. Hines believes his bipolar depression results from trauma experienced as an infant when his natural birth parents abandoned him in the streets for drugs. He adds that mental illness should be considered a disease of the brain in the same way other illnesses affect other organs of the human body. He noted that the brain affects every other organ in the human body and is the second largest organ next to the skin. His efforts are not only catching the eye of national media, authorities on mental health are paying attention, too. In 2016, Mental Health America awarded Kevin their highest honor, The Clifford W. Beers Award for his efforts to improve the lives of and attitudes toward people with mental illnesses. Previously, he was awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award by the National Council of Behavioral Health in partnership with Eli Lilly. Kevin has also been awarded by SAMSHA as a Voice Awards Fellow and Award Winner, an Achievement Winner by the U.S. Veterans Affairs and received over 30 U.S. military excellence medals as a civilian. Kevin sits on the boards of the International Bipolar Foundation, the Bridge Rail Foundation and the Mental Health Association of San Francisco and on the Survivors Committee of the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. Previously, he was a board member of the Northern California Chapter of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention and was a two-term member of San Francisco’s Mental Health Board. He has spoken in congressional hearings alongside Patrick Kennedy in support of The Mental Health Parity Bill. He continues his policy work as an Ambassador to the National Council for Behavioral Health.

Health District fundraising for cancer research Wood County Health Commissioner Ben Batey is one of 10 Northwestern Ohio participants who will raise money for breast cancer research during October’s “Real Men Wear Pink” campaign. In addition to wearing pink each day of the month, Batey, whose goal is to raise $2,500 for the American Cancer Society, has also pledged to walk one mile across Wood County for every $100 contributed to the campaign. To donate, visit www.bit.ly/ beninpink. Batey came up with the idea to walk so that he would have some skin in the game alongside those who choose to donate. Wood County Health District is raising money by selling T-shirts and holding benefit nights at local restaurants during October. Breast cancer research is a meaningful cause for Batey, whose best friend’s mother is a survivor. His wife is an oncology nurse
Wood County Health Commissioner Ben Batey believes that “real men wear pink” – and he’ll be doing so every day in October to raise money for breast cancer research. (Submitted photo) at University of Toledo Medical Center. Wood County Community Health and Wellness Center, located within the Wood County Health District, offers resources for women seeking preventative health screenings. Nurse Practitioner Katie Barricklow
is accepting new patients for all kinds of women’s health issues. Financial assistance is available for those who qualify through the Breast and Cervical Cancer Project (BCCP). Social Worker Rhonda Stoner is available to help anyone make the connections necessary to get the health screenings they need. Please visit www.WCHealthCenter. org or call 419-354-9049 for more information or to make an appointment. Donna Foster, registrar at the health district, was diagnosed with breast cancer about 10 years ago, when she was a small business owner with no health insurance. Her doctor found a lump in her breast during her yearly check-up. BCCP was able to help with mammogram expenses. During Foster’s treatment, the American Cancer Society helped with her travel expenses to and from the hospital. Donna was able to beat the cancer, and she
hopes that sharing her story will encourage women who think they can’t afford it to have preventative tests done. The Wood County Health District asks members of the community to help them reach their goal and spread the message about preventative care. Any donation to the American Cancer Society will help, and any referral to the health center could save a life. The mission of Wood County Health District is to prevent disease, promote healthy lifestyles and protect the health of everyone in Wood County. Our Community Health and Wellness Center provides comprehensive medical services for men, women and children. We welcome all patients, including uninsured or underinsured clients, regardless of their ability to pay, and accept most third-party insurance. For more information, visit www.woodcountyhealth.org.
Tragic events around the world can affect us all From the American Counseling Association
The
Counseling Corner
Were you aware that when you read about or hear about news reports of major tragedies, they may be impacting your own life beyond what you may realize? The recent devastating mass shooting, hurricanes, reports of terrible earthquake damage, the threatening military actions in the Far East, the too-numerous terror attacks occurring in Europe – any and all of these, no matter how far removed from where you live, are events that can affect each of us in negative ways. We all want to feel safe in our daily lives, but when we see and hear exhaustive news reports of tragic events on a regular basis, it can bring on very real physical and emotional reactions.
It’s called vicarious trauma. Such reactions are common and normal in the face of events too large and horrific for normal comprehension. They can make you wonder just how safe you are as you realize that whatever just happened, or something similar, could just as easily happen to you. Real physical reactions can include chills, nausea, dizziness and headaches. You may find yourself more irritable,

to cry. It’s also important to spend time with others and to talk about what you’re feeling. In times of tragedy, you’ll find others are experiencing similar feelings and reactions and are often eager to discuss them. It’s also a good time to start, or increase, volunteer work. Helping others also helps you as your work makes the world a little bit better. Being affected by tragedies is a very normal human reaction. When it happens, acknowledge what you’re feeling and take steps to help you feel better. “Counseling Corner” is provided by the American Counseling Association.

prone to anger or having sudden emotional outbursts. Some people experience confusion or nightmares, or may simply find it difficult to relax. The problems that can arise are not in the emotions we feel, but in how we respond to them. When you deny such feelings, or try to hide from them by working longer hours, or by turning to alcohol or drugs, you aren’t validating and accepting your very real, very normal feelings. A good way to respond to such feelings is to go back to basics. Stick to a schedule. Be well rested. Eat healthy meals. Alternate exercise and relaxation. If feeling overly anxious, try pampering yourself a little. Take a hot bath, listen to your favorite music, read a good novel, maybe even allow yourself

Hospice presents “Soul Injury” talk CHIP plan Deborah Grassman, ARNP, founder of Opus Peace, a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide education and training programs that respond to soul injury, will present, “Soul Injury: Liberating Unmourned Loss and Unforgiven Guilt” at this year’s Dr. Sharon Erel Lecture Tuesday, Oct. 24 from 7:45 a.m.-noon at Parkway Place in Maumee. Community professionals including nurses, social workers, psychologists, longterm care administrators, clergy, funeral directors and first responders are encouraged to attend the insightful presentation. The $30 registration fee includes a full breakfast and continuing education credits. What is soul injury? Soul Injury is any wound that separates us from our own sense of goodness, causing us to think we are defective or inadequate. Soul injury may be present in addition to physical, emotional and mental injuries caused by trauma, abuse, war, self-neglect or chronic/serious illness. It can subtly and not so subtly rob traumatized people of their vitality. The sources of soul injury are unmourned grief, unforgiven guilt and shame over things we should or should not have done. Little information on how to assess and respond to soul injury is available, leaving those affected to carry their burdens alone. Family members also suffer, and their wounds are also unattended. Professionals – such as first responders, hospital personnel, counselors and hospice workers – also experience this type of soul weariness in the form of burn out and “compassion fatigue.” Registration is required by Monday, Oct. 16. To register, contact Mary Davis at 419-931-5190 or mdavis@hospicenwo.org. To learn more about the presentation and Hospice of Northwest Ohio, visit www. hospicenwo.org.

Sandusky County CHIP, a multi-agency Community Health Improvement Plan, was introduced at ProMedica’s Family Fest community event at Memorial Hospital on Sept. 17. A joint effort of government agencies, health care providers, non-profits, and schools, CHIP will serve as a guide to address health disparities in Sandusky County. It focuses on three priority areas with measures for success. CHIP was the next step in a process that started with the Sandusky County Community Health Assessment completed earlier this year. The three priority areas identified by the CHIP address health disparities and move the community closer to the vision of a healthy Sandusky County. The three focus areas are: 1. Mental Health and Addiction, including adult and youth alcohol use, drug use, depression and suicide; 2. Chronic Disease, including adult, youth and child obesity and adult diabetes; 3. Maternal and Infant Health, including infant mortality. “The Community Health Improvement Plan provides a comprehensive work plan for public health and its partners and stakeholders to dig in and eliminate health disparities in our community,” said Bethany Brown, Sandusky County Health Commissioner.
Bill makes Eyeglasses more affordable The Ohio House of Representatives passed House Bill 116 on a vote of 93-1 on Sept. 20. The bill, sponsored by Rep. Derek Merrin from Monclova Township, removes sales tax as an economic barrier for Ohioans to obtain corrective eyewear. When individuals in need of vision correction can more easily afford the proper prescription eyewear: • Children have a better chance at achieving academic success – kids need to see to learn. • Seniors are less likely to fall and suffer injuries – 25 percent of their falls are due to poor/uncorrected vision. • Workers are more productive when they can see clearly and less likely to suffer from eyestrain which can lead to stress-related absenteeism. Good vision is good business! Forty-two states currently exempt prescription eyewear from sales tax in recognition of the importance of this sight saving measure for the citizens of their states and the positive impact it has on education, public health and safety, said Sherry Williams, president & CEO of the Ohio Affiliate of Prevent Blindness. For more information on how to protect healthy vision for a lifetime, contact Prevent Blindness at 800-301-2020 or visit www. pbohio.org.

Advanced treatment at Wood Co. Hospital
p In September, the Maurer Family Cancer Care Center at Wood County Hospital began using RPM, a new video-based positioning assistant which monitors the position of a patient’s tumor for more precise treatment. (Photo courtesy of Wood County Hospital)
The Maurer Family Cancer Care Center at Wood County Hospital now offers radiation treatment so precise, it tracks a patient’s breathing. The center recently acquired Real-time Position Management™(RPM) Respiratory Gating equipment, making it one of a select number of area providers to offer this new technology. RPM is a non-invasive, video-based positioning assistant that continuously monitors the position of a patient’s tumor. As the center’s Medical Director Dr. Robert Lavey explains, “Tumors in the chest and abdomen move as the patient breathes. Respiratory Gating permits us to deliver radiation in pulses when the tumor is in the optimal phase of the respiratory cycle.” The equipment was purchased in August, staff was trained and began starting using it on patients in September. During a patient’s radiation therapy session, RPM turns the radiation beam on and off as the patient breathes to avoid areas that the tumor moves through during treatment. This allows doctors to deliver higher doses of radiation with fewer side effects. It is particularly useful for the imaging and treatment of lung, breast, esophagus, pancreas and stomach cancers. This RPM technology was funded through donations to the Wood County Hospital Foundation. The Maurer Family Cancer Care Center also offers up-to-the-minute advances in immunotherapy and chemotherapy. Immunotherapy uses a patient’s own immune system to fight cancer cells. Wood County Hospital administers immunotherapy and chemotherapy drugs as soon as they are cleared by the FDA, offering patients cutting-edge care close to home. Founded in 1951, Wood County Hospital is a private, not-for-profit general acute care facility, licensed for 196 beds, that serves a population of over 72,000 in Wood, Henry, Seneca, Sandusky and Hancock counties in northwest Ohio. Wood County Hospital is fully accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Health Care Organizations.

How to remove a tick and prevent future bites As tick populations grow and spread across the country, their prevalence is increasing the public’s risk for some troubling diseases. Of these diseases, say dermatologists from the American Academy of Dermatology, Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, Powassan virus and alpha-gal syndrome—a mysterious red meat allergy—are among the most serious. “Although most ticks do not carry disease, it’s important to be mindful of these risks and keep an eye out while you’re outdoors,” said board-certified dermatologist Lindsay Strowd, MD, FAAD, an assistant professor of dermatology at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. “If you notice a tick crawling on you or attached to your skin, remove it immediately to prevent any potential infection.” To remove a tick that is attached to your skin, Dr. Strowd recommends the fol-
lowing tips: • Use tweezers to remove the tick. Sterilize the tip of the tweezers using rubbing alcohol and grasp the tick as close to the skin’s surface as possible. • Pull upward with steady, even pressure. Avoid twisting, squeezing or crushing the tick, as this can cause its head or mouth to break off and remain in your skin. If this happens, use tweezers to remove the remaining parts. If you cannot remove the rest of the tick, see a board-certified dermatologist. • Dispose of the tick. Place it in a sealed bag or container; submerse the tick in alcohol; or wrap it tightly in tape. You may also want to save the tick in a sealed jar. That way, if you develop any symptoms after the bite, the tick can be tested for disease. • Clean the bite area with soap and water.
“Fortunately, there are many things people can do to protect themselves and their families against ticks,” said Dr. Strowd. To prevent tick bites, Dr. Strowd recommends the following tips: Walk in the center of trails. Avoid walking through heavily wooded and brushy areas with tall grass. If you must walk through heavily wooded areas, wear long pants and long sleeves. Pull your socks up over your pants, and tuck your shirt into your pants to prevent ticks from crawling up your body. It’s also a good idea to wear light-colored clothes so that ticks can be spotted easily. Use insect repellent that contains 20 to 30 percent DEET on exposed skin and clothing. Make sure to follow the product instructions. Parents should apply this product to their children, making sure to avoid the hands, eyes and mouth.
Examine your skin after spending time in heavily wooded or brushy areas. Conduct a full-body tick check to make sure that no ticks are crawling on you. Since ticks prefer warm, moist areas, be sure to check your armpits, groin and hair. You should also check your children and pets, as well as any gear you used outside. “If you develop any symptoms within a few weeks after a tick bite, such as a rash, fever or body aches, see a board-certified dermatologist,” said Dr. Strowd. “Make sure you tell the doctor about your recent tick bite, when the bite occurred and where you most likely acquired the tick.” These tips are demonstrated in “How to Remove a Tick”, a video posted to the AAD website and YouTube channel. This video is part of the AAD’s “Video of the Month” series. A new video in the series posts to the AAD website and YouTube channel each month.

Waite’s Howard wins WNBA title with Minnesota Lynx Florida State women’s basketball star forward Natasha Howard (Waite) earned her first WNBA Championship on Wednesday night, helping the Minnesota Lynx win the fifth and decisive game over the Los Angeles Sparks, 85-76. Howard, who established a school-record 41 double-doubles with FSU, was a key reserve for the Lynx. She averaged 1.1 points and one rebound in six minutes off the bench per game in the playoffs. Florida State’s all-time leading rebounder has been a part of the Lynx-Sparks rivalry over the last two seasons, as Los Angeles took the series 3-2 in 2016. The Lynx fell behind 2-1 in the series, but came through with a game four win at Los Angeles by an 80-69 score before clinching the title in game five in Minnesota. “As talented as Natasha is, she is the consummate team player,” FSU head coach Sue Semrau said. “It is so exciting

to see her and the Lynx organization rewarded with the WNBA Championship. Her Seminole family is so proud of her.” Howard wrapped up her fourth season in the WNBA, having played two seasons with the Indiana Fever in 2014 and 2015 before being traded to the Lynx for the last two years. For the 2017 season, the Toledo native averaged 4.3 points, 2.4 rebounds, shot 48.4 percent from the floor and averaged nearly one blocked shot (0.6) per game. After leading Waite to a Division I state runner-up trophy, Howard went to Florida State in 2010 as the highest-ranked recruit in program history, rating No. 2 overall in the 2010 signing class out of Morrison R. Waite High School. She lived up to her billing, becoming a three-time All-ACC Team member as well as an ACC All-Freshman Team performer in the 2010-11 season. The two-time All-American posted

one of the finest individual single seasons ever recorded by a Seminole. As a senior in 2013-14, Howard averaged 20.5 points, 9.3 rebounds, 2.3 blocks and 2.1 steals. In ACC play, she remarkably produced the league’s highest single-game totals in four categories: Points (40 vs. Syracuse), field goals made (14 vs. Syracuse, 14 vs. Duke, 14 vs. Virginia, 14 vs. Miami), rebounds (22 vs. Duke) and free throws made (12 vs. Syracuse, 12 vs. Georgia Tech). In that special senior season, Howard totaled a remarkable five 30-point games, including a school-record 40 points at Syracuse on Feb. 13, 2014. Howard is the highest WNBA Draft Pick in FSU history, being selected fifth overall by the Indiana Fever in 2014. She is one of 12 Seminoles selected in the WNBA Draft, which includes four picks over the last four years. There have been 14 FSU Alumna who have been drafted or signed by a WNBA team.

Northwood to battle resurging Cardinal Stritch squad By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com
The Press
GAME OF THE WEEK
A game between two schools located less than three miles apart always makes for a good rivalry. Especially when you consider that many players live in the same neighborhoods, can even reside in homes virtually next door. Northwood and Cardinal Stritch play Friday in a game that features two teams hoping to finish out the season on a high note. Both league foes have shown they can win this year in Toledo Area Athletic Conference action. The Rangers, who have battled an inordinate amount of injuries this season, are 2-4 and 1-2 in the TAAC while Stritch is 1-5 and 1-2. Northwood has lost two straight following a 41-28 win over Edon, a game in which five Rangers — Anthony Williams, Dalton Dempsey, Jimmy Jablonski and Lamar Daniels — found the end zone. Williams led the way by rushing 25 times for 241 yards and two touchdowns. The Cardinals defeated Danbury, 4838, behind a tremendous performance from Shaun Enright, who threw for 333 yards and accounted for five touchdowns. Northwood coach Ken James says an athletic group like Stritch poses challenges for his club. “They’ve got good players at the skilled spots. They’ve got taller guys and we’ve got some shorter kids, (so) they can throw jump balls. It will be a challenge trying to cover them,” said James. “Their cover guys have good speed. They’ve got some guys with skill and quickness and they’re typically very athletic. It’s fun to have a game late in the year like this. “We’re not a good enough team to be looking down the road. We’re focused on trying to get guys healthy. We’ve had more injuries than I’ve seen across the board, but we can’t use that as an excuse. It’s a situation where we’re mixing lineups each week, and it’s a little difficult to get continuity when you’re rotating guys in and out. Our issue has been, in some cases, we’re a little heavier numbers-wise at the lower grades. We only have nine seniors, and we’ve played more sophomores and about four to five freshmen, which is not something we’re used to. We’ve moved guys around in different positions because we’ve gotten hit hard by injuries.” Bryan Dudash, who is Stritch’s third coach in as many years and seventh since 2007, is trying to bring stability to the position. He was previously the head coach at Danbury and most recently was an assistant at Lakota and Gibsonburg. “I hope that they think this will be the start of some stability for us. That’s another problem we’ve had to overcome, the fact that they have had three head coaches the last three years. That’s three different philosophies, three different views of offseason workouts, terminology, etc,” said Dudash. “We have a complete new coaching staff this year except for one coach. That’s tough for anyone, but especially young adults. As coaches, we have already been talking about the offseason, so our commitment to Cardinal Stritch is real. That will be huge as we move forward — to create a program, with stability. Still, Stritch would like to have more than one win this season, and they believe Northwood is their opportunity. The Cardinals are also dealing with the same injury issues the Rangers are dealing with.

staff. We have earned their respect. I think they trust us and the direction we are trying to take them. I hate to say it like this, but it is a process,” said Dudash. “We need to continue to get bigger and stronger. That is a main problem for us now, especially on defense. We are just not strong enough at the point of attack. “We have played well in spurts all year. But, we haven’t been as consistent as we have wanted. Some of that has been because of injuries, but the kids have worked hard to overcome those. Sometimes we’re forced to put people into a game when they aren’t mentally or physically able to contribute yet. That’s tough on them. Even with our victory over Danbury, we didn’t play a complete game. But, that was one game where we fought until the last whistle. We never gave in to them.” Stritch hasn’t beaten Northwood since 2006. Last year, the Rangers won, 71-34 behind three running backs — Noah Cornelison (175 yards), Tim Romstadt (136 yards) and Trevor Mack (105 yards) — who found the end zone two times apiece. The Cardinals got 326 passing yards from Drew Staczek and Jeff Dunsmore finished with 151 receiving yards and three touchdowns. “They present the same challenge that they do every year. They are big, strong and physical. They will be extremely well coached under Coach James,” said Dudash. “We will have to be willing to respond to getting punched in the mouth. We cannot back down from them. We will need to match their intensity for 48 minutes.”

Saffran, Rothert provide offensive spark for Warriors By Press Staff Writer sports@presspublications.com When Kayla Saffran (Lake) and Lily Rothert (Woodmore) signed to play soccer together at Indiana Tech, Coach Jim Lipocky believed they would “provide a spark for our offense.” As freshmen at the four-year university, Saffran and Rothert have provided that spark already. Then, when they got the chance to return to the Toledo area, they made good on Lipocky’s promise. They combined to provide two of their team’s three goals in a league win over Lourdes University. Indiana Tech kept its record perfect in Wolverine-Hoosier Athletic Conference play as they rallied from a two-goal deficit to defeat Lourdes, 3-2, in overtime at Cat Stadium in Sylvania. Indiana Tech is 6-4 overall and 3-0 in the WHAC. Lourdes fell to 5-4-1 and 1-2. Local Gray Wolves players include redshirt senior Megan Soncrant (Clay/Owens Community College), a starter in all 10 games who has two goals this season, and redshirt sophomore Reagan Boice (Eastwood), who has played in nine of 10 games. Leading 1-0 after 45 minutes, the Gray Wolves would extend their lead to 2-0 just two minutes into the second half, but the Indiana Tech Warriors would find their offensive groove in the final 30 minutes of regulation to tie the game up. Saffran got Tech on the board in the 60th minute (30:03 remaining) as Tori Singstock found her in the box, while Rothert would tie the match up in the 80th minute (10:19) with a header after Marina Steffke crossed it into the box. Both sides would each have a chance to end the game in regulation, but the goalkeepers would stand tall to send it to extra time. The game appeared to be headed to a 2-2 tie, but a foul in the box by the hosts would give the Warriors a penalty kick and Singstock would send it home for the game-winner in the 107th minute. Indiana Tech outshot Lourdes 26-12 for the match, including 16-7 in the second half. The Warriors also had the only two shots in the extra session. The visitors also held an 8-4 advantage in corner kick opportunities. Last February, Rothert was the first to sign at Indiana Tech, and Saffran came on board in April. “We were very fortunate to get Kayla so late in the process,” Lipocky said. “Kayla will definitely help our offense and provide us with different options up front. She is also a club teammate with (Rothert), which is huge.” A 5-foot-4 forward, Saffran completed her senior season at Lake for Coach Donald Jablonski, tallying 30 goals and 11 assists while her career totals are 61 goals and 37
The Press Box assists. Saffran owns the school record for most goals in a season (30) and game (5). She was a four-time all-district and All-Northern Buckeye Conference selection and was named All-Ohio twice. A two-time team captain, she was the team MVP as a senior and the Co-Alan Miller Jewelers All-Press Player of the Year. The daughter of Craig and Debbie Saffran, Kayla is majoring in business administration at Indiana Tech. “Personally I want to become a better soccer player all around,” Saffran said of her goals while at Tech. “I want to become bigger, faster, and stronger, perfect my shot and foot skills and most importantly I want to win. I don’t take losing lightly, so it’s important for me to bring my strong aspects to the game and work with my teammates to win. “When I went on my visit, I liked the size of the campus and class sizes,” she added about why she choose Tech. “I come from a smaller high school and didn’t want to go to a college where there were 100plus students in a class, so Indiana Tech felt like the right fit.” Rothert led Woodmore with 20 goals and 17 assists her senior season. A 5-4 midfielder, Rothert compiled 55 goals and 50 assists over her four years with the Wildcats, where she played under Jason Allen, who also serves as the women’s lacrosse coach at Indiana Tech. Rothert left Woodmore as the school record holder for most assists in a game (4), season (17) and career (50). She collected a bevy of awards, including the 2016 Northern Buckeye Conference Player of the Year, AllPress Co-Player of the Year, a second team All-Ohio selection as a senior, a three-time All-district and all-conference honoree, a two-time Most Productive Offensive Player for the Wildcats and was a MaxPreps/ NSCAA Player of the Week winner in 2015. The daughter of Trent and Julie Rothert, she is majoring in recreational therapy.

Six-foot-5 Bench loves to ‘erase’ opposing offenses By Jeffrey D. Norwalk Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com
Genoa 6-foot-5, 190 pound junior tight end and linebacker Andrew Bench is congratulated by his coaches after making another defensive play. (Press photo by Harold Hamilton/HEHphotos.smugmug.com) Burnt. “Drew blew the play, but he never quit,” says Patterson. “Instead, he turned around, put his foot in the ground, and sprinted about 65 yards to get in on the tackle. And, that was after being behind the play by about 15 yards. He could’ve jogged down. He could’ve let his teammates handle it. But, he never did. You can’t coach that kind of closing speed and desire.” This year, it includes a sequence against Otsego during which the linebacker tracked down fleet-footed Knights’ quarterback Mitchell Downs, spun him to the ground, and then fell on the loose ball after the signal caller was stripped. Then, it was the complete game he played against Elmwood, when, among other things, Bench shot up the middle untouched to reach Royals’ QB Konner Logston via a sack at about the 6:30 mark of the first. He followed with a pick-six off a tipped Logston pass late in the second, to cap off a seven-tackle, one tackle-for-loss night. Does Bench have good size? Well, listed at 6-foot-5, 190 pounds, the junior more often than not looms over everyone else on the field. How fast does he get off the ball for a big man? The scouting report says Bench runs about a 4.6 40, has great “burst,” is extremely nimble, and possesses excellent lateral quickness, which allows him to easily set the edge and help an equally-quick Comet defense stretch outside running plays to the sidelines. And, which kind of hit does No. 3 enjoy the most? Is it on a running back, quarterback, or receiver? “Honestly, all three of those kinds of
“
He’s got a motor that never stops, and if teams try to run outside on us Drew is going to get there and make the stop.
“
Genoa inside linebacker Andrew Bench remembers his first real hit as if he’d just dished it out at Comet Volunteer Stadium last Friday night. “It was during my fifth grade year at Woodmore, and it was a pee-wee game against Genoa,” shares the 16-year-old Bench, “and they ran a jet sweep. I just kind of laid the kid out for the first time. That’s when the love of playing defense struck me. That boom that day has just stuck with me ever since.” Fast forward six years later, and it’s a good bet that those same Comet players he squared off against have to be pumped that Bench has since brought his penchant for delivering big hits five miles west to Genoa. He leads the 5-1 Comets with 47 tackles, 10 tackles for a loss, three sacks, one fumble recovery, and an interception. “I just play with the mindset that there’s a line drawn out there on the field and if you cross it, you’re going to get hit,” says Bench, who forged his passion for eight years with the Wildcats’ football program — from flag through middle school ball, and finally came over to Genoa prior to his freshman season so he could play alongside longtime pal and then-emerging Comets’ quarterback Jake Plantz. “I’d say I like playing defense because it gives me a place where I can express all of my emotions,” Bench says. “I have lots of anger inside me, and being on the defense lets me spill that anger out onto the field. When stuff goes wrong out there, I just get really mad. I get mad when other people start talking trash to me about my team. When I step outside the lines, I’m always going to try to give guys tips, and help out others in any way I can. But, between those lines, a switch just flips, and I’m the meanest guy you’ll know. I would say I play with a nasty edge.” That tone-setting “switch” has helped Bench and the rest of the Comet defenders in defensive coordinator Ben Ohlemacher’s 5-3 Cover 0 scheme limit opposing offenses to 108 points combined and 1,004 total yards through six games. With four league games left on the slate, that play has kept the third place Comets (2-1, NBC) smack dab in the middle of the Northern Buckeye Conference title conversation behind Eastwood (6-0, 3-0), who Genoa has a much-anticipated date with at Comet Volunteer Stadium on Oct. 20, and surprising Otsego (5-1, 3-0), who handed Genoa their only loss, 35-32, on a pressurecooker weather night in Tontogany on Sept. 22. A standout contributor as a sophomore in 2016, Bench notched 54 tackles, 11 tackles for loss, five sacks, two forced fumbles, and a safety, making him the fourth-leading tackler on last fall’s edition of Ohlemacher’s unit, first team all-defense accolades in the NBC, and second team in the district. Is there one performance that stands out the most in Coach Paul Patterson’s memory from last year? It came during week nine against Lake, when the Flyers decided to run a fake counter away from Bench’s end. Only it turned out not to be a fake, as the Lake player hung onto the ball, catching Bench flat-footed.
PREP GRID RECORDS (After Week 6)
hits are a linebacker’s dream,” says Bench, “because any hit that gets my team, and ‘Comet Nation’ fired up, is a big hit. We feed off of that energy. But, my favorite play is a blitz. When I blitz, I get to go out and put my helmet on someone’s face mask, and really hit.” Patterson adds, “Drew definitely knows when it’s his turn to blitz, that’s for sure, and we’ve come to refer to him as ‘the Eraser’ because he always seems to kind of appear out of nowhere and erase plays. “When Drew played defensive end for us last year, teams eventually started running away from him, so, over the off-season, we talked about what to do with him, and decided to move him to inside linebacker. Now, in the middle, teams can’t run away from Drew anymore. He’s got a motor that never stops, and if teams try to run outside on us, Drew is going to get there and make

the stop. If a ball carrier tries to run inside, he’s going to run smack dab into Drew. “He’s just a big-bodied kid, he’s tough, and he’s strong,” adds Patterson, “and it’s going to be tough to find kids who are going to be able to run Drew over, or block him straight up. He takes away a lot of things. Even when we make mistakes on defense, he has the ability to make up for them. That’s why we call him our ‘Eraser.’”

Lot on the line when Arrows invade Clay’s Potter Gym By J. Patrick Eaken Press Sports Editor sports@presspublications.com If you want to be considered among the best, you must prove you can play with the best. Clay volleyball gets that chance at Harold Potter Gymnasium this Thursday night (Oct. 12). The 16-4 Eagles will host St. Ursula Academy, and Clay coach Dave Conley hopes this is the year his team takes down the Arrows. St. Ursula has won five of six Three Rivers Athletic Conference championships and has been to the Division I state final four 12 times since the beginning of the 21st Century. SUA won state titles in 2004 and 2010 and was runner-up in 2000, 2005, 2011 and 2013. “They obviously have a great tradition over there and we are the underdog until we can knock them off in a match-up against them,” Conley said. “I know they have (6-foot-2 senior middle blocker/right setter) Mariah Paulette, so we’re going to have to handle her in order to have some success in that match-up. We’ll try to control what we can control mostly and set our defense a little bit.” The Arrows have four losses this year, but are still undefeated in the TRAC, at least until they took on ninth-ranked Notre Dame Academy (16-3, 5-0) Thursday night (Oct. 5). Clay finished third behind the two Catholic academies last year, and this year the Eagles have a shot at second place. Clay has already lost to Notre Dame in straight sets. Conley is hoping when St. Ursula shows up at Potter Gymnasium for his team’s Senior Night celebration, the Clay fanbase will be there in big numbers to support his Eagles. “If we can be successful this Thursday (Oct. 5) against Fremont (Ross), that sets up our last conference game of the year on Senior Night. So, it’s going to be a big night for us,” Conley said. “We just want to get the word out a little bit about what’s going on around here,” Conley said “We feel like we’ve got something pretty special right now and we’re at
Clay senior middle hitter Alyssa Huffman and outside hitter Shannon Coughlin go for the block. (Press photo by Russ Lytle/ Facebook. com/ RussLytle/ RHP) 16-4 hoping to get to 17-4 this Thursday. We just want the community to know where we are at as a program and this is a big game, and it’s a fun place to watch a game right now. “We’re really excited about it — excited to pack the gym and it will be electric in there. We’re just hoping to see a great crowd. “I think for anyone who was at the win over Central last Thursday night, I think they were pretty excited about being able
to watch that game and watch us win in straight sets. It was an exciting brand of volleyball,” Conley continued. ‘Have to be all-in’ One of his seniors, 5-foot-10 outside hitter Shannon Coughlin, who leads the Eagles with 148 kills, believes the Eagles can pull off the win with the right formula. Coughlin is a two-time team captain, threeyear varsity player and was first team AllTRAC last year.
“It is just a really important game,” Coughlin said. “We have to focus on being a team and coming together to make sure we’re in for every point — we have to be all-in no matter how many sets it goes — if it goes to three or if it goes all the way to five, we just have to be all-in as a team.” Clay’s six seniors being celebrated Thursday include Coughlin, 5-9 middle hitter Alyssa Huffman, 5-7 setter/defensive specialist Hannah Cathers and three defensive specialists — 5-5 libero Aubrey Evers, 5-6 Meradith Wisniewski and 5-6 Taylor Henny. Huffman, a three-year varsity player and returning honorable mention All-TRAC performer, leads the team in blocks (34), Evers leads in digs (151) and Wisniewski in aces (244). “We’ve got good senior leadership. All six seniors have a big role on the team, and they’re doing a good job in leading the team. We’ve got two senior hitters, Shannon and Alyssa, leading the charge at the net and four senior defensive specialists who are all really good in the back row — Meradith, Aubrey, Hannah and Taylor,” Conley said. “We have a great senior class — I mean, they have worked really hard to put this program in the position we are in now. This is my fifth year, so I started watching them in the eighth grade and it’s been great to coach them four years,” Conley continued. “They all have that ability to play in college. There was a college here last week at the Central game looking at Shannon, but several seniors don’t know what they want to do yet, or aren’t sure, but they all have tremendous abilities.” As far as his underclassmen are concerned, returning starters contributing include 5-9 junior hitter Madison Hornyak, 5-4 junior defensive specialist Rylie Fournier and 5-10 outside hitter Hannah Blausey. And, he’s seen steady improvement from all, including 5-6 freshman setter Jaiden Karrick, who is leading the team in assists (244). “There who are several who are improving — I hate to point out one or two,” Conley said. “They all have, and they’ve all worked really hard. It would be hard to pick out a few most improved because I could say that about all of them.”

Two Waite doubles teams bring home City League titles By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Waite’s girls’ tennis team was unable to defend its City League title this season, but that didn’t faze fourth-year coach Ted Morse. The Indians finished 10-10 and 8-2 in the CL during the regular season, then took second behind a favored Scott squad at the league tournament. “We didn’t win the City championship, but getting second place is pretty darn good and I’m proud of the team this year,” Morse said. “I was very surprised with how we did this year. We beat Scott in the regular season to prevent them from going 10-0 in the league. It was one of our bigger wins. “We played tough teams. We lost 5-0 in a couple matches and you could tell they were discouraged. I told them these teams make you better for when you play the Woodwards and the Scotts. To their credit, they stuck with it. They didn’t give up.” Waite returned five letter winners from a squad that went 14-5 and 10-0 in the CL a year ago. It was the school’s first-ever league title in girls tennis. The Indians had two champions at the CL tournament, at first and second doubles, and had one second-place finish. Seniors Merilda Harris and Alex Hernandez won the title at No. 1 doubles, while the second doubles team of junior Cassie Vogelpohl and senior Lizzy Peters took home a firstplace medal. Senior Onicia Briones finished second at first singles for the Indians. She went 10-2 in league play and won 13 matches; she was the runner-up in voting for CL player of the year. “She didn’t play much in the summer and she was a little out of shape and rusty in her strokes,” Morse said. “She worked hard after that. She got seeded second at the tournament, and she beat some good players outside the City.” Harris, a left-hander, and Hernandez went 10-0 in the league at No. 1 doubles and lost just one set. The duo, who played together all four years, won 13 total matches.

(Photo courtesy Innovations Portrait Studio/ InnovationsVisualImpact. com) “Merilda’s volleys are great, and Alex has a great forehand,” Morse said. “If they played singles, they would have helped us, but they’ve been together and they lost in the City finals in a tough one last year to Woodward. We wanted to win the No. 1 doubles this year.” Morse said Vogelpohl and Peters, a first-year player, “took care of business” at the CL tourney. “Peters played the best three matches she’s ever played at the league tournament,” Morse said. “They won their three tournament matches convincingly. Cassie has one of the best two-handed backhands I’ve seen. For her first time playing tennis, Lizzy did a great job.”
Another first-year player, senior Leann Harwick, played at second singles and played half the season at second doubles with Peters. Harwick finished fifth at the league tournament. “Leann took her lumps, but she got better and she got us two points at the tournament,” Morse said. “She got better throughout the year, no question about it.” Alyassa Kurek, a freshman, finished 5-5 against CL competition at third singles. She also placed fifth in the City. “She is the future of Waite tennis and she’s really committed and wants to get better,” Morse said. “She gained confidence with her strokes, and winning against good players is going to do that for her. She lost
a tough match in the first round at City. She could have packed it in, but she played in that match for fifth place and won 6-1, 6-1 against a girl from Start. That was a big two points for us.” Morse also singled out the play of freshman Jassalynn Friend. “She played sparingly,” Morse said, “but when she did play, she’s getting better. This was her first time playing and she’s the future, no question - her and Cassie and Alyassa.” Waite has won 33 of 40 CL matches and 40 dual matches in the last four years. The Indians competed in the Division I sectional tournament at Fremont Ross on Thursday.

Mary Bonnell
Nov. 15, 1950 ~ Oct. 11, 2015
NEVER FORGOTTEN 7 years ago, you left us and you will never be forgotten. We feel you around us. always. About My Son The days will always be brighter because he existed. The nights will always be darker because he’s gone. And no matter what anybody says about grief, and about time healing all wounds, the truth is, there are certain sorrows that never fade away until the heart stops beating and the last breath is taken.
Two years have been too long without you. So many memories come flooding back. Your beautiful smile, your gentle touch, and your encouraging, compassionate heartfelt words to many. Always missed and remembered in the hearts of our family and friends.
Love you always.... times seven! M & D, Deanna and Steve
