Toussaint project cost less than estimate By Press Staff Writer Final costs for the Toussaint Creek improvement project are $235,127 less than the original estimate, according to figures from the project’s joint board of supervisors. Bills have been mailed to 5,102 parcel owners in Ottawa, Sandusky and Wood counties, said Mike Libben, program administrator for the Ottawa Soil and Water Conservation District. The project cost $622,484 and was completed in June. The estimated cost was $857,127. Libben said property tax assessments unpaid after Nov. 14 will be certified with county auditors and placed on the property tax duplicates for 10 equal collections with 3 percent interest. The assessments will be paid semi-annually for five years. A first-year maintenance assessment of 10 percent of the base assessment will be collected during the next tax period, he said. Property owners who pre-paid for their share of the project can expect a refund from their respective counties. The project began in October 2014 with a petition filed with the Wood Soil and Water Conservation District. About 34 miles of the Toussaint cuts through the three counties and the creek’s watershed covers more than 47,000 acres. Technicians from soil and water conserva-

Log jams like these were cleared during the improvementproject. (Photo courtesy of Ottawa SWCD) tion districts in the three counties walked that stretch of the creek during the winter of 2014-15 and identified more than 200 log jams and about 6,000 dead and leaning trees. After the formation of a joint board of supervisors from the three counties, the Ottawa Soil and Water Conservation

District was tasked as the lead organization for implementing the petition process. The Ottawa SWCD then made final revisions to the assessments and included any parcel change information. D&M Earthmoving, Wakeman, O., was awarded the contract, having submitted the lowest of 11 bids for the project.

Oregon City Council last week approved a liquor permit for Chipotle Mexican Grill, which plans to open this year at 2924 Navarre Avenue. The restaurant is currently renovating the building, previously a Frisch’s Big Boy Restaurant at the intersection of Navarre Avenue and Harbor Drive. The liquor permit had previously been reviewed by the city’s building and zoning department, the finance director, the tax commissioner, and the police and fire chiefs. None found reasons to object to the liquor permit request. Two building permits for the restaurant have also been approved by the city. The popular franchise will be the first in Northwest Ohio to have a drive through window. Council also approved a liquor permit for the Dollar General Store, 2450 Woodville Road, and the transfer of a liquor permit for Big Apple Deli, 2130 Woodville Road. Also at the meeting, council: •Entered into an agreement with O’Reilly Auto Enterprises, LLC, for the acquisition of a perpetual waterline easement at 3171 Navarre Avenue for the Navarre Avenue Waterline Replacement Project. The city and O’Reilly agreed to a purchase price of $4,893 for the easement. “We may have one more beyond this, and we’ll have all of the easements for that project,” said Public Service Director Paul Roman. The project won’t start until next summer, when the Ohio Public Works Commission (OPWC) funding will become available to the city, he added. •Authorized the renewal of the Ohio Plan Insurance Pool coverage administered by the Hylant Group, of Toledo, for property and liability insurance coverage in a premium amount of $214,618. The city’s liability insurance has been covered by the Ohio Plan since 2004. The city requested proposals and again chose the Ohio Plan in Continued on page 4

Misdemeanor charges were also recently filed against two other current and former village officials pursuant to this joint investigation. Bernard Mack McCann, 82, the Put-inBay Mayor, was indicted on the following charges: • Two counts of Having an Unlawful Interest in a Public Contract, felonies of the fourth degree; • Four counts of Conflict of Interest, misdemeanors of the first degree.

Jerusalem Twp. seeks 0.25-mill cemetery levy By Kelly J. Kaczala News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com A .25-mill, five-year levy, known as Issue 17, will be on the November 6 ballot in Jerusalem Township. The levy is needed to fund development of new property the township purchased for Oakwood Cemetery, which is nearly full, according to trustees. “Ohio law mandates that each township provide a cemetery. So we’re doing what we have to do,” said Trustee David Bench. The cemetery, established in 1912, is on Brown Road, between Decant and Cousino roads. Last year, the township was able to purchase land from an adjacent property owner, according to Trustee Mark Sattler. “Now we have enough property to double the size of the cemetery so we can provide for burial space for decades to come,” he said. There are costs to develop the property, he added. “It needs to be graded and tiled. And plans call for the development of a pond back near the creek that will deal with drainage so the property doesn’t get real soggy,” said Sattler. “Most of the revenue from the levy would fund the development so we can get this ready and make sure we have developed cemetery property for the future.” Modest amount The cost of the levy to an owner of a $100,000 home is $8.75 per year, said Sattler. “It’s very small and modest. We tried to keep it as small as possible to minimize the impact on our residents. It’s not more than what we need. It would cover the development and any additional shortfalls in maintenance. We’re hoping to do enough for the development. We’re looking at the cost of the existing cemetery and monies from the sale of plots. Over the last five years, the sales of plots and interments have pretty much covered all the maintenance. We ran five year reports on that, and it was just about break even on it. We’ll be looking to see if we can make sure we get to break even within the next five years as well. Ideally we wouldn’t have to go back and ask for a renewal of the levy after the five years.” The township has its own maintenance

(Photo courtesy of Jerusalem Township website.) crew that handles the streets, digs the graves and assists the funeral homes with burial. “All the mowing and trimming are done by our own people,” said Sattler. “There will be additional landscaping for the new property we are going to develop.” Raised rates The township charges residents $200 for cemetery plots, $850 for non-residents. “We recently raised the rate for non-residents. It was necessary to preserve space for our residents. We want the locals to beneﬁt from having that cemetery in their community. The costs are comparable to other rural communities. It’s considerably lower than urban communities, like Toledo, which is over $1,000,” he said.

Bench said the levy will bring in $16,622 annually. The township is still seeking estimates to develop the site. One contractor offered to do the project for $32,000. Bench said the township may have to wait a couple of years to develop the property if the cost is higher than the projected revenue from the levy. “We can’t do anything until we get the money. So we will just have to wait to get it done,” he said. Bench said the township has maintained the cemetery over the years, including building up a nearby creek with stone to stop erosion. An archway was also installed in the middle of the cemetery ﬁve years ago.

The program will include a presentation on distracted driving. “Distracted driving can involve use of cell phones, eating or drinking any type of beverage, or doing anything that takes a driver’s attention away from driving a vehicle,” said Ron Craig, Lake Township Police Department’s crime prevention officer and community policing officer. The deadly effects of distracted driving has recently hit close to home, Officer Craig noted. “We had three people from one family perish in a fiery, eight-vehicle crash on Interstate 280 in Lake Township in early August. While this crash remains under investigation, it appears the main cause of this horrific crash was due to the inattention of one of the drivers.” The meeting will follow a free community dinner hosted by St. Peter UCC at the church.

2016 to administer the city’s liability insurance package. The Hyland Group submitted a renewal quote for the period of Oct. 2018 to Oct. of 2019 of $214,618, a $2,796 increase from the 2017 premium amount. “It’s just a slight increase of 1.3 percent from last year,” said City Administrator Mike Beazley. “We’ve had a good relationship with Hylant.” Laurie Manning, of Hylant, said costs rose due to an increase in the total value of the auto fleet of $500,000 as a result of new vehicles replacing older ones, and a 1.5 percent increase in the total value of property liability; • Heard from Beazley about meeting with officials interested in developing senior housing in the city. “Many of us get

calls from seniors looking for town houses or villas. I know we have demand in this market. And we have some folks putting something together.” He added that there is an interest in developing land at Starr Extension and Wynn Road. “It would be kind of exciting to get that right across from the park,” he said; • Heard Councilman James Seaman give an update on the city’s food truck and farmer’s market on Oct. 3 on Navarre Avenue. “We had very strong attendance and a lot of satisfaction from the vendors, who were very positive in selling a lot of merchandise. So it was very successful,” said Seaman. • Heard Councilwoman Sandy Bihn say how pleased she was about the recent release of young sturgeon in the Maumee

River. “There were 3,000 released. They don’t spawn until they’re 20-25 years old. They live up to 125 years,” said Bihn, who is also executive director of Lake Erie Waterkeeper Inc. “They’re up to 6 feet in length. They look kind of like a dinosaur – they’re incredible. You may find them somewhere along the Oregon shoreline. There are sturgeon in Lake Erie currently, but they’re not reproducing. So this is the first time in our lake that we’ve had a reintroduction of sturgeon.” She said there will be 3,000 young sturgeons released into the river each year for the next 20 years in hopes of regrowing the population. “So this is new opportunity for the river and the bay that’s exciting.” Sturgeon is one of the most threatened species in the Great Lakes. According to the Ohio Department of

Natural Resources, sturgeon were historically very abundant in the Ohio River and Lake Erie and would make spawning runs far up the tributaries. Old records indicate they came as far up as the Maumee River, the Ottawa River near Lima, and the Scioto River as far upstream as Columbus. Today, there are still small numbers of them present in Lake Erie, but have not been found in the Ohio River since 1971. The populations over the years have declined due to overfishing as well as numerous dams that prevented them from reaching their spawning grounds. Although sturgeon are edible, they are more famously prized for their eggs for caviar. Commercial fishing of sturgeon has been greatly restricted.

Inspirational Message of the Week: October Melancholy As the days grow shorter and the leaves turn color and fall languidly from the trees, there is a peculiar melancholy which we are susceptible to at this time of year. October days are tinged with sadness and a sense of loss at the end of another summer, and yet this is combined with a feeling that the beauty of a crisp autumn day under a clear blue sky somehow redeems the loss of summer. The last monarch butterflies wearily flapping their exhausted wings, the flocks of geese heading south, and the vibrant colors of the leaves all presage a time of dormancy, when we will hunker down for the long, cold winter. Everyone probably has a

Northwood

favorite season of the year, but being able to enjoy each one with its different qualities is a blessing from God. And, perhaps this October melancholy is God’s way of telling us to start conserving our energy. If we’ve been diligent all summer, and the harvest is plentiful, then just maybe, with the Lord’s blessing, we’ll make it through the coming winter, and live to see another glorious Spring. Go to the ant, o sluggard: consider her ways, and be wise. Without having any chief, officer or ruler, she prepares her food in summer, and gathers her sustenance in harvest — R.S.V. Proverbs 6:6-8

Jan Peacock Oregon “It was Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again. It was good but hard to follow because they ƀashed back in time a lot and they had new actors playing the main characters. It was a little confusing but it was still good. I’d give it a 6 out of 10.

Issue 1 not the right answer for Ohio’s drug problem By Sharon Kennedy Proponents of Issue 1 believe that Ohio can solve substance addiction by essentially decriminalizing the possession of any drug of abuse of less than 20 grams by reducing possession to a misdemeanor and by limiting jail sentences for probation violations. But the truth is that a drug offender’s involvement in the criminal justice system—with freedom on the line—can present a meaningful opportunity for recovery through Ohio’s drug treatment courts. Anyone who has watched, in anguish, as a loved one battles substance addiction knows – recovery will not occur until there is a rock bottom. Sadly, addicts will have to crash their life on the rocks of substance abuse often enough, long enough, and hard enough, before recovery is possible. Addicts have to become sick and tired of being so sick and tired before they realize that they are powerless over their addiction and the only way to achieve the life they were born to live is to seek treatment. But until rock bottom occurs, substance addiction is a long, downward, cyclical spiral. Different life events trigger rock bottom. For some, it happens when they lose a job or two, or when they see themselves in the friend who just overdosed and died, or when their family and friends participate in an intervention and they are forced to choose between substance abuse or treatment to save their family. ` Often, however, rock bottom for addicts happens when they are caught in and convicted of a criminal act, and stand

Guest Editorial before a judge awaiting sentencing, where freedom and liberty hang in the balance. If they are ready and willing to receive treatment and lucky enough to be standing before a judge who has chosen to operate a drug treatment court, the research shows that they are in the best possible position to beat substance addiction and never return to the criminal justice system. The one constant among successful drug court graduates is that they were addicts who hit rock bottom and chose treatment—and the judges overseeing their cases always had the threat of incarceration for a failure to comply. It’s an easy sound bite to blame the faceless, nameless criminal justice system for Ohio’s substance addiction problem or to say that the criminal justice system isn’t doing enough to treat substance addiction. The criminal justice system continues to evolve. During the war on drugs in the 1970s, substance-addiction treatment became a probation tool. An offender’s failure to comply with court-ordered treatment gave the judge discretion to impose appropriate sanctions in order to obtain compliance. This “carrot and stick” method has become widely known as coercive

Vote no on Issue 1

The Seneca County Opiate Task Force firmly opposes the proposed Ohio Issue 1, Neighborhood Safety, Drug Treatment and Rehabilitation Amendment on the November’s ballot. This constitutional amendment would absolutely make Ohio an attraction hub for drug dealers, diminish the effective treatment efforts in the local courts, overcrowd the local municipal court with misdemeanor cases, and put the ones who break the law ahead of the rehabilitation and wellbeing of innocent victims or drug addicted individuals. This constitutional amendment will mandate that criminal offenses of obtaining, possessing or using any drug such as fentanyl, heroin, cocaine, etc. be classified only as a misdemeanor. This constitutional amendment will prohibit jail time as a sentence for obtaining, possessing, or using such drugs until an individual’s third offense within 24 months. The Seneca County Opiate Task Force has worked tirelessly over the last three years toward creating a safe, drug-free community, while helping the people struggling with drug addiction and prosecuting the drug traffickers. Our courts, probation officers, treatment providers and other local agencies understand that often having jail or prison time as an option “helps” an individual seek and remain in treatment. Our goal is to save lives and help every

drug addicted individual recover and be a productive citizen of our community. We firmly oppose Issue 1. Seneca County Opiate Task Force

Election policy The Press encourages responses to articles and opinions. In order to provide for fair comment, The Press will have the following policy covering election letters to the editor: The last issue for letters regarding the Nov. 6 election will be the second issue (Oct. 29.) before the election. No letters will be published in the issue immediately prior (Nov. 5) to the election except for letters limited to direct rebuttal of election-related matters appearing in the Oct. 29 issue of the paper. No new political information can be introduced in the issue immediately before the election. This is to prevent inaccuracies without a fair chance for correction. Letters are limited to ballot issues. The Press will not print letters about candidates’ races after the Oct. 8 issue. Letters should be no more than 350 words and include a phone number and address for verification purposes. No anonymous letters will be printed. The deadline is Wednesday, Noon.

drug treatment and is used throughout the United States. But coercive drug treatment consisting of a term of probation and substance addiction treatment met with limited success. We needed to do more, and with the creation of drug treatment courts, we have. In 1995, Ohio opened its first drug treatment court. Today, more than 100 specialty courts operate across Ohio and substance addiction is the focus of or part of the specialized treatment being offered. Not all drug treatment courts operate the same way, but the common elements are accountability of the addict and intensive supervision by the court. There are weekly appearances before the judge, increased contact with probation officers, substanceabuse treatment, and regular drug tests. Research on the impact Ohio’s drug treatment courts have made on reducing substance addiction and recidivism is promising. These published findings demonstrate drug courts are having a significant and appreciable effect on recidivism and that drug courts are cost-effective. Is there more to do to tackle the substance addiction problem Ohio faces? Yes. But our efforts will not be aided by gutting the most effective drug court treatment programs Ohio has by removing the “stick” from coercive drug treatment. The unintended consequence of the passage of Issue 1 is that we will simply postpone the inevitable rock bottom for those crashing their life on the rocks of substance addiction. Or worse, with the increasing lethalness of drugs of addiction, addicts will reach a

point from which recovery is impossible. Any successful drug court graduate will tell you that without the impending threat of the loss of freedom and liberty they never would have chosen and stayed the course of recovery. Now is the time— with research evidence in hand that Ohio’s drug treatment courts are cost effectively reducing recidivism—to grow drug treatment courts, experiment with the development of more joint-jurisdiction drug treatment courts, and integrate additional lifeskill facets into our existing drug treatment courts to strengthen and increase successful outcomes. Substance addiction recovery occurs one day at a time, growing drug treatment courts occurs one judge at a time, and eradicating substance addiction occurs one recovering addict at a time. Ohio’s continued success in reducing substance addiction should be founded on what we know is working – the implementation of more drug treatment courts and the development of life-skill programs into our drug courts to bring holistic treatment to the addict. But in order to do that, the drug treatment court model requires a “stick.” We cannot make somebody want treatment, but the possibility of prison can provide personal motivation for change, and spark an appreciable desire to live a substancefree life. If we remove the consequences of failure—as Issue 1 will—we limit each addict’s chance for success. Sharon Kennedy is a justice with the Ohio Supreme Court.

Frans Hals explores expanding definitions of family In 2011, the Toledo Museum of Art (TMA) added a remarkable Old Master painting to its magnificent collection – “Van Campen Family Portrait in a Landscape” (circa 1623-25) by Frans Hals. This acquisition, and the subsequent conservation of Hals’s “Children of the Van Campen Family with a Goat-Cart” by the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium (RMFAB) in Brussels, has led the two museums to collaborate on an historic exhibition. Bolstered by evidence from the conservation treatment on the latter painting, scholars verified that the canvases now in Toledo and Brussels, as well as a third in a private collection, once formed a single composition painted by Hals in the early 1620s. The original canvas was cut into sections more than two centuries ago. These spirited representations of the Van Campen family are now reunited as a result of this significant international partnership. In addition, the four other family portraits painted by Hals, including his only double portrait of a married couple, have been brought together for the first time. “Frans Hals Portraits: A Family Reunion” premieres at TMA, the exclusive U.S. venue, where it will be on view Oct. 13-Jan. 6, 2019, before traveling to the RMFAB in Brussels, Feb. 2-April 28, 2019, and the Collection Frits Lugt in Paris (dates are to be determined). “Featuring Frans Hals’s dynamic and authentic imagery of real families, this exhibition operates on a number of exciting levels, including the jigsaw puzzle of innovative scholarship, along with the incorporation of contemporary Toledo-area faces and voices as they consider the character of family relationships in our community today,” said Brian Kennedy, TMA’s Edward Drummond and Florence Scott Libbey director. The exhibition spotlights major loans from several European and North American museums and private collections, including

1900, and the RMFAB’s Liesbeth De Belie, curator of 17th-century Dutch paintings. One of the greatest portraitists in the history of Western European painting, Frans Hals (1582/83-1666) is renowned for his revolutionary candid style of capturing sitters in seemingly spontaneous poses and lively gestures. A contemporary of Hals’s wrote that his “paintings are imbued with such force and vitality that…they seem to

breathe and live.” Accompanying the reunion of the Toledo and Brussels portraits in the installation will be Head of a Boy (circa 1623-25) from a private collection, which completes the original painting of the Van Campen family; Family Group in a Landscape (circa 1645-48) from the Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza, Madrid; Family Group in a Landscape (circa 1647-50) from the National Gallery in London; Marriage Portrait of Isaac Massa and Beatrix van der Laen (circa 1622) from the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam; and Portrait of a Dutch Family (mid-1630s) from the Cincinnati Art Museum. Setting the scene and providing context for the exhibition will be a gallery of other works of Netherlandish art from TMA’s collection that represent families. Leading into the exhibition of portraits by Hals will be an entry space devoted to encouraging visitors to reflect on multiple definitions of family by engaging with a selection of TMA objects across cultures and eras, as well as a monumental collage and video of Toledo community members, which resonate with the theme of family. Upon exiting the focused Hals section, visitors will be invited to respond to the portraits on view by sharing their own perspectives of family in the 21st century through a series of interactive tools and approaches. In addition, a library and reading area and performance space will be provided to further enhance the gallery experience. “As one of the leading luminaries of the Dutch Golden Age, Hals is also one of the most ingenious and accessible artists of any period or place,” said Nichols. “His charismatic and sympathetic portraiture not only reflects 17th-century everyday life, it also provides us with a rich platform from which to explore and approach the meaning of family in our own time.” Tickets are $10 for adult nonmembers; $7 for seniors, college students and military personnel; and $5 for youth ages 5-17.

Halloween spending expected to reach $90 billion Once again, Americans are looking forward to splurging on their favorite candy, costumes and decorations during the Halloween season. According to the National Retail Federationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual survey conducted by Prosper Insights & Analytics, total spending for Halloween is expected to reach $9 billion, the second highest in the surveyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 14-year history. The figure is relatively the same as last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s previous record of $9.1 billion. Celebrants are planning to spend an average of $86.79, up from last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s $86.13, with more than 175 million Americans planning to partake in Halloween festivities this year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The economy is good and consumer confidence is high, so families are ready to spend on Halloween this year,â&#x20AC;? NRF President and CEO Matthew Shay said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Retailers are stocking up to supply chil-

dren, pets and adults with their favorite decorations, candy and costumes for the season.â&#x20AC;? According to the survey, consumers plan to spend $3.2 billion on costumes (purchased by 68 percent of Halloween shoppers), $2.7 billion on decorations (74 percent), $2.6 billion on candy (95 percent) and $400 million on greeting cards (35 percent). Among Halloween celebrants, 70 percent plan to hand out candy, 50 percent will decorate their home or yard, 48 percent will wear costumes, 45 percent will carve a pumpkin, 32 percent will throw or attend a party, 30 percent will take their children trick-or-treating, 21 percent will visit a haunted house and 18 percent will dress pets in costumes. Pet costumes continue to gain popularity, with nearly 20 percent of celebrants

planning to dress their pets in costumes this year up from last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 16 percent. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of the biggest trends this year is the growth of spending on pet costumes,â&#x20AC;? Prosper Insights Executive Vice President of Strategy Phil Rist said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Out of the 31.3 million Americans planning to dress their pets in costumes, millennials (25-34) are most likely to dress up their pets, the highest we have seen in the history of our surveys.â&#x20AC;? When looking for inspiration for the perfect costume, 35 percent of consumers will look online, 29 percent will look in stores, 19 percent will ask friends and family, 19 percent will look to Pinterest and 16 percent will look to Facebook; 16 percent will be influenced by pop culture and 15 percent by YouTube. For buying costumes and other Halloween supplies, 45 percent of shop-

pers will visit discount stores and 35 percent will go to a specialty Halloween store or costume store. In addition, 25 percent will visit department stores, 24 percent will buy online and 24 percent in grocery/ supermarket stores. More than 3.8 million children plan to dress as their favorite princess character, 2.5 million as their favorite superhero, 2.2 million as Batman characters, 1.9 million as their favorite Star Wars characters, and another 1.9 million will dress as a witch. Popular kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; costumes ranked in order include princess (7.6 percent), superhero (4.9 percent), Batman (4.3 percent), Star Wars character (3.7 percent), witch (3.6 percent), Spider-Man (3.5 percent), Avengers character excluding Spider-Man (3.2 percent), ghost (2.9 percent), Pirate (2 percent) and Frozen including Elsa and Anna (1.7 percent).

Seven wedding tricks to make the big day easier Wedding planning is no small task. From sending out engagement announcements to giĹ&#x152;ing guests with take-home favors, a couple will pour over scores of details as they plan their weddings. As if selecĆ&#x;ng a photographer or choosing the right passed appeĆ&#x;zers isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t challenging enough, some unknown variables are sure to pop up on the big day as well. Couples can take their cues from others who have walked the aisle before them with these tricks of the trade, which may help couplesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; wedding days go smoothly. 1. Host everything at a single locaĆ&#x;on. Couples who want to simplify their wedding day can select a site that can host the ceremony and recepĆ&#x;on and also house guests. The cost of such faciliĆ&#x;es may be more aÄŤordable than couples think, as transportaĆ&#x;on costs will be minimal and the venue may oÄŤer discounts on group packages.

2. Think about a day coordinator. Couples who cannot aÄŤord a wedding planner to handle all of the details oĹ&#x152;en ÄŽnd that a day-of-service provider is within their budget. This person can handle all of the details of the wedding day so brides and grooms can fully immerse themselves in the fesĆ&#x;viĆ&#x;es. 3. Bring extra cash. Unexpected expenses may pop up. Couples may have to feed an extra member of the band or a guest who was able to get a babysiĆŠer at the last minute. Brides and grooms may want to oÄŤer a bigger Ć&#x;p than anĆ&#x;cipated to the waitstaÄŤ or deejay who went above and beyond. 4. Learn how to bustle. Walking around with a free-Ĺ&#x2021;owing train all day can become Ć&#x;ring for brides. Brides should make sure that one person pracĆ&#x;ces how to bustle the train and will step in to do so for the recepĆ&#x;on. Also, it may not be the height of fashion, but having a garbage bag on hand can keep the train clean during inclement weather, or if the bride has to trek across grass or soil for photo opportuniĆ&#x;es. 5. Give an outgoing person a job. Enlist a boisterous friend or family member to wrangle guests for photo opportuniĆ&#x;es. He or she can be the photographerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s helper and give the happy couple one less thing to do. 6. Stock the bathroom. Some venues will have courtesy items for their guests, but couples also should bring their own necessiĆ&#x;es, such as breath mints, toothpaste, extra pantyhose, hairspray, lip gloss, and/or sanitary pads. 7. Be all smiles. Couples canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t predict everything that will happen on their wedding day, but they can help create the mood. Smiling couples can make things beĆŠer for everyone, even when zippers break or someone gets the chicken instead of the salmon.

Eagles, Comets face off in conference’s top rivalry By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com When Eastwood and Genoa square off on the football field, there are usually league and playoff implications at stake, and this year is no different. Dating back to their time in the Suburban Lakes League, the Eagles and Comets have provided fans with a highprofiled rivalry game year after year. Throughout its history, successful coaches and great players have made this rivalry what is today. People like Jim Firestone, John Boles, Mike Vicars, Tim Spiess and Jerry Rutherford have led these programs while great players like David, Andrew and Kyle Nutter, Josh and Logan Bryer, Jake and Tyler Schmeltz and Isaiah and Zach Conkle have starred in some great showdowns. Since the creation of the Northern Buckeye Conference, Eastwood and Genoa have won the league six of seven seasons. The Eagles have won four of the last seven meetings between the two teams. “For the past decade, there has usually been a conference championship on the line. Every time we play there is a lot riding on the game,” said Eastwood coach Craig Rutherford. “We also both get great community support so it’s always a great atmosphere for a high school game.” Genoa coach Paul Patterson added, “You’ve got two teams that just play hard. You have good athletes on both sides, two groups of kids that play extremely hard, and it’s a great atmosphere,” he said. “No matter where the game is played, the atmosphere is great. The kids are giving everything they got.” Last year was another exciting game as Eastwood, which advanced to the Division V state final, rallied from a 14-point deficit to defeat Genoa, 38-31. The Comets held a 31-17 lead after three quarters before the Eagles tied it up with 3:58 to play following two touchdown runs by Jaden Rayford and took the lead for good on an Alex Ross interception that he took 35 yards for a touchdown with 2:29 remaining. This year, unbeaten Genoa, which started off 7-0 overall and 4-0 in the NBC, is ranked first in the Associated Press Division V state media poll. They have made it publicly clear that their goal is to do what D-V state runner-up Eastwood did last year — reach the state championship game only the Comets have set their eyes on winning it. The Eagles (5-2, 3-1) are unranked, but have lost two games by a total of three points. Heading into week 8, Genoa held the top spot in the D-V, Region 18 standings and Eastwood was ranked ninth. A win over Genoa would do a lot to help Eastwood’s playoff chances. In week seven, Eastwood took control in the fourth quarter to defeat Otsego 35-28. Rayford broke a 28-28 tie with 6:44 remaining when he scored on a 5-yard touchdown run to close out the scoring. He carried the ball five times and gained 44 yards on the drive, which came following an Otsego touchdown and two-point conversion. For the game, Rayford carried the ball 21 times for 158 yards and two touchdowns and also caught a touchdown. Justin Pickerel was instrumental in the victory, too, running for 62 yards and scoring two touchdowns. “It was fun to see our guys come away with a close win like that,” said Rutherford. “We had to get a big defensive stop at the

end of the game and then we trusted our offense to get us two yards on fourth down to close out the game. That has to give us some confidence going into a tough final stretch.” That same week, the Comets defeated Woodmore, 49-14, behind Daniel Novotney’s 16 carries for 112 yards and three touchdowns. Jake Plantz also threw a touchdown pass to Drew Bench and Sam Witt returned an interception 27 yards for a touchdown. Patterson is pleased with the way the season has progressed. “Right now, we’re playing well. We’re

doing some good things — defensively, we’re improving, and offensively, we’ve continued to improve and we’re trying to be a little more balanced with the run and the pass,” he said. “We’ve made some big strides. When you’re (undefeated), you can’t complain about much. I think we’re doing a good job of taking it one game at a time. Our kids are doing a good job of doing what they’ve been asked to do.” Novotney leads the balanced rushing attack with 109 carries for 575 yards and six touchdowns. Plantz is second on the team with 342 rushing yards on 51 carries and 10 scores and Jake Bradfield has carried the ball 54 times for 265 yards and four touchdowns. Bench leads the receiving corps with 15 catches for 338 yards and six touchdowns while Nathan Lewis has caught 16 balls for 272 yards and three scores. Plantz, meanwhile, has completed 42-of-69 passes for 814 yards and 12 touchdowns. To beat the Eagles, the Comets will have to keep Eastwood’s rushing attack in check. “The No. 1 thing is you have to be able to tackle. They try to wear you down, they’re very good at what they’re doing,” said Patterson. “You have to be able to get them into situations where they’re behind

the sticks a little bit, get them to third-andlong.” By the same token, Eastwood will have a stiff challenge in stopping Genoa’s potent rushing and passing attack. Plantz has turned into a three-dimensional threat who very rarely makes mistakes in the passing game, but the Comets have plenty of other weapons, too. “It’s critical to get all 11 guys in the right place,” said Rutherford. “All of their backs and receivers can make big plays, so you can’t key on one guy.”

Palmer Yenrick qualifies for state golf meet Palmer Yenrick is finishing his golf season in style. The Clay senior not only qualified for the state tournament, he was medalist at the Division I district tournament held at Red Hawk Run Thursday, shooting 37-40—77 to defeat second place Ashland golfer Max Watson (78). It is the third time in three weeks Yenrick has been a medalist at a major event, doing so at the sectional tournament and Three Rivers Athletic Conference meet. At Stone Ridge Golf Course in Bowling Green, Yenrick tied for medalist honors with Sylvania Northview senior Connor McCann at the sectional. Yenrick scored 38-38—76 while McCann shot 35-41—76. Northview advanced to the district meet as a team, while Yenrick qualified as an individual. The Clay boys golf team finished third at the Three Rivers Athletic Conference meet, scoring a 340 to place behind St. John’s (325) and Findlay (340) at Stone Ridge Golf Club in Bowling Green. Findlay finished second on a fifth golfer tie-breaker. Clay golfers and their scores were Yenrick (73), J.J. Utter (82), Andrew St. Julian (90), Ryan Juhasz (95), Brodi Belinski (96) and Evan Cote (101). Yenrick’s 73 earned him co-medalist honors with St. John’s golfer Patrick Yost, the TRAC Golfer of the Year, but Yenrick finished the league season as a second team golfer and the team finished in fourth place in the point standings. They finished in fourth at every shootout and Utter was also second team All-TRAC. St. John’s won the league and sectional championship, but Yost finished five strokes behind Yenrick at the sectional meet, shooting an 81. The Titans also qualified for state as a team, scoring 356 to place behind district champion Perrysburg (353).

Slovak, Eagles celebrating league title By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com There is a perfectly good explanation for Kennedy Slovak’s unique first name. “My dad’s a big history guy,” said Slovak, whose father, Corey, teaches history at Fassett Junior High in Oregon. Kennedy, a junior goal keeper, has made a name for herself in the Three Rivers Athletic Conference. She was voted the TRAC Keeper of the Year last season, and this fall she has helped coach Don Hess’s Eagles defend their conference title. The Eagles needed a win or tie on Wednesday against visiting Notre Dame Academy to clinch their second straight outright TRAC championship. Clay and Notre Dame tied, 1-1, pushing Clay’s record to 11-3-2 and 6-0-1 in the TRAC. Hess said winning the title this year is “fantastic.” “It shows great effort, mostly, and coming together as a team and playing for each other,” he said. “It was a total team effort (Wednesday) night.” Junior midfielder Rylee Clark scored Clay’s lone goal to help Clay take a 1-0 lead at the intermission. Slovak finished the game, which was played on a wet field, with “a handful” of saves, according to Hess. “She didn’t have to make that many big saves,” he said. “Most importantly, when we were kicking into the wind, she did a great job, just having strong leg and getting the ball somewhat out of our half of the field.” Slovak, who had 70 saves and eight shutouts prior to Wednesday’s game, said even the possibility of winning the conference title this year would mean “a whole lot.” “Winning the TRAC last year, we had a target on our backs,” she said. “We want the seniors to go out with a bang, and we want to do it for Clay. We want to put another year up on that soccer banner (in the school gym). We were doubted because we lost our top scorers (to graduation), and we definitely showed people different. Our defenders work really well with the midfield

and we mesh really well as a team.” The 5-foot-8 Slovak, whose older sister, Madison, also played soccer and gymnastics at Clay, was the Eagles’ starting shooting guard on the basketball team last season, and she also plays shortstop and third base for the softball team. In her spare time, she plays soccer with the Pacesetter Soccer Club in Sylvania. Slovak started playing keeper at age 5. As she got older, she started hearing that she was pretty good so she stuck with it. “I’m very glad I did,” she said. “I just really liked playing the position.” Slovak recorded 86 saves last season as the young Eagles went 9-6-3 and lost to Notre Dame in a 2-1 shootout in the district semifinals. She said being named the TRAC’s top keeper served as motivation this season, and Hess said she hasn’t let the team down. “She would tell you her back-line defense has gotten a lot better from last year to now,” Hess said. “The number of shutouts and the way she played in the St. Ursula match (a 2-0 win), that put us in position for (Wednesday) to have a lot of meaning. She moves very well and she’s very instinctive. She’s a great teammate and a quiet leader, but she is doing a lot more talking on the field. She has a very quiet, confident demeanor.” Slovak, who has a 3.5 GPA, admitted that it’s difficult to concentrate in school on game day. “I think about the game, what could happen and how the team is going to play,” she said. “I get nervous really easily, but it goes away once the game starts.” Clay, which hosts Southview in the first round of the sectional tournament on Oct. 17, has allowed just 12 goals this season. While Slovak knows she’s had a good season guarding the net, she said she can always improve. “I can definitely say I have showed up for games when I needed to,” she said. “It takes courage (to play keeper), definitely. Sometimes those balls in the air can be quite scary, but you have to be fearless. I think I have really good instincts. My reflexes are really good, and I’m also not afraid to sacrifice my body for the team to make a save.”

Genoa 6-foot-3 senior Jacob Plantz has verbally committed to playing NCAA Division II basketball at Lake Erie College in Painesville, Ohio. Last March, Plantz repeated as the Alan Miller Jewelers All-Press Player of the Year. Plantz, an Associated Press Division III Third Team All-Ohioan, averaged 20.2 points, including 12.6 points in the paint. He brought down six rebounds per game, along with 2.5 assists, two deflections, and 2.2 steals. The Northern Buckeye Conference POY, Plantz shot 47.8 percent from the field and 71.4 percent from the free throw line and reached the 1,000 career scoring mark with one year of prep basketball remaining. During Plantz sophomore year, he shot 51.4 percent from the field, averaged 17.4 points, 6.7 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 2.1 steals, 1.5 deflections, and .8 blocks per game. Although a guard, he was adept at getting the fast breaking started and slashing to the

basket in the half court offense. “Jacob’s importance to the team started on the defensive end,” Genoa coach Zach Ault said. “He was one of our top defenders and took the challenge of guarding the opponent’s top offensive threat every night. He is extremely competitive and that showed in his effort on the floor.” Plantz will be playing for Lake Erie coach Kyle Conley, who is entering his second year at the helm and eighth season overall with men’s basketball program. Conley has been part of the Storm’s transition from NAIA into NCAA D-II and the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.

They can call Clay ‘champs’

PASCHAL BIHN & SONS EXCAVATING ALL YOUR EXCAVATION NEEDS

By J. Patrick Eaken Press Sports Editor sports@presspublications.com Clay volleyball may be barely over .500 at 11-10 on the season, and their match at St. Ursula Academy on Thursday night did not go as planned. Nevertheless, you can call the Eagles league co-champs. That’s in a tough league, too, competing with the likes of perennial state powers Notre Dame and St. Ursula. As for that 11-10 schedule, that’s in a different class, too, as the Eagles regularly went up against state-ranked teams in nonleague competition this season. “We played the No. 1 ranked team in the state of Ohio. It didn’t go as well as we wanted, but we were in it,” said first-year coach Carrie Wagoner. “We’ve played some really good teams, like teams that are in the top 12 of the state. We went to Mentor and played them, and we’re only going to get better. I wasn’t expecting to do well over there but we were in every set. But that’s the only way we are going to get better as a team is by seeing better teams.” The Eagles had knocked off league favorite Notre Dame in five sets on Sept. 13, but traveling across the Maumee River to Indian Road in Toledo Thursday, the Arrows had their way with the Eagles, winning in three sets, 25-19, 25-14, 25-11. This, despite the fact that Clay had a 50 percent larger fan base present than St. Ursula, and the Clay student body outnumbered the Arrows’ by a two-to-one ratio. They wanted to see Clay win an outright title, but since Notre Dame had beaten St. Ursula, all three teams share the championship with 6-1 records. For Wagoner, the championship is sweet, but it was something she and her team had set their minds to before the season began. “That was my goal. Basically I said to the parents when I got hired back in March, ‘Why not us?’ I mean, I wanted to take first in the TRAC, and that was my goal and that was their goal,” Wagoner said. “We have really accomplished what we set out to do. We wanted to beat Notre Dame, that was one, and we wanted to beat St. Ursula, and we wanted to win the TRAC, which we have, but we didn’t want to share it. We wanted to take it solo.” Clay has just three seniors, 5-foot-8 right side middle hitter/setter Madison Hornyak, 5-4 defensive specialist Kelsey Garcia and 5-9 right side setter Madi Vriezelaar. Hornyak is a co-captain, which she shares with 5-8 sophomore setter Jaiden Karrick, 6-0 junior outside hitter Hannah Blausey and 5-5 junior setter/defensive specialist Maddie Taylor. Karrick already had 403 assists heading into the match at SUA, which puts her halfway to breaking the school record set by one-time Eagle standout Kristen Gyori. Remember, Karrick has two seasons of varsity volleyball remaining. Another possible eventual record breaker is Blausey, who had nine kills against the Arrows Thursday and now sits at a team-leading 161. She has one more year remaining. Then there is the ‘family connection,’ which ties to Bowling Green State University senior libero Kallie Seimet. Kallie was the Mid-American Conference Volleyball Player of the Year last year as a junior. Her sister, 5-4 sophomore libero Kendall Seimet, is following in Kallie’s footsteps at Clay with a team-leading 168 digs. “She has a really high percentage of digs right now, but she’s only a sophomore, so we still have a long way to go for them to beat those records,” Wagoner said. Another defensive specialist, 5-4 sophomore Halyana Kesling, leads the team with 21 aces, and 6-2 junior middle hitter Olivia Henneman-Dallape has a team-leading 41 blocks. Henneman-Dallape also has 69 kills after getting four more Thursday night.

Clay 5-foot-8 sophomore setter Jaiden Karrick (9) volleys over a defender’s outstretched arms. (Press photo by Russ Lytle/Facebook.com/RussLytle/RHP) Wagoner says there is talent “all the way through” her lineup, and she’s seen it progress. “We have three seniors this year and we have quite a few juniors and sophomores. I think they’ve really progressed as a team, not as an individual player. It’s more of a team effort this year,” Wagoner said. “I’ve seen a lot of growth in players who were very quiet on the court and have really stepped up. Honestly, I can’t say they’ve grown as a player, I think they’ve grown as a team. They know their strengths, they know their weaknesses, and they come together when someone is not having a good game. I think the five other girls on the court will pick it up when that one player will not have that ‘mojo’ that day,” Wagoner continued. In the Division I tournament, Clay opens with an 11 a.m. match on Oct. 20 at Sylvania Southview against Wapakoneta. A win will send the Eagles into an Oct. 23, 7:30 p.m. district semifinal against the Southview-Bowsher winner. Wagoner would like to see a strong tournament run, but says no matter what happens, her program is where it needs to be right now. “It really has been a fun season,” Wagoner said. “That’s what I said, ‘If you’re not having fun, why are you playing volleyball?’

Northwood quarterback Jay Moten. (Press photo by Don Thompson/Facebook.com/DNRSport)

Northwood relying on its big play offense By Mark GrifďŹ n Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Talk about being efďŹ cient. Last week, in Northwoodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 62-0 win over Montpelier, sophomore quarterback Jay Moten threw just three passes and completed each one of them for a touchdown. Sophomore Demond Marks was on the receiving end of two of those scoring tosses. Through seven games, Moten has completed 29 of 47 passes for 936 yards and 10 touchdowns, with two interceptions. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also the Rangersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; leading rusher, with 629 yards and 11 touchdowns on 50 carries (12.5 average). â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s matured to the point where he has a real good command of the offense,â&#x20AC;? Northwood coach Ken James said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll pitch the ball on the option at the last minute, and from an execution standpoint that has helped us make some big plays. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doing well distributing the ball and we have some really good players around him, so heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got a lot of weapons.â&#x20AC;? The Rangers (6-1, 4-0 Toledo Area Athletic Conference) are in the midst of an offensive explosion that James has rarely seen in his 33 years on the sideline. Beginning with a 50-21 win over Edon on Sept. 14, Northwood has followed up with a 75-3 rout of Stryker (0-7), a 56-0 shutout of Hilltop (3-4) and last Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s blanking of Montpelier (1-6). The Rangers, who played Toledo Christian (2-5) on Friday, have outscored their opponents by a 362-111 margin this season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had some games and years where we scored quite a bit,â&#x20AC;? James said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The scoring record here is when we averaged 46 points a game in 2008, and we went 9-1 and did not make the playoffs. One of the biggest things is, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re protecting the ball well and playing well on defense these last few weeks. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting a lot of possessions on offense, and the defense is getting us the ball in good position.â&#x20AC;? The Rangers have traditionally run a ďŹ&#x201A;ex-bone offense that features the triple-option. They have picked up the tempo on offense this season and are using the no-huddle during a good portion of each game. Their recent blowout wins have included a running game clock in the second half to shorten the games. Northwood has forced 17 turnovers while giving the ball away just nine times on offense. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The weird thing is, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re scoring pretty quickly,â&#x20AC;? James said, noting that Northwood ran just 26 offensive plays against Montpelier and scored nine touchdowns. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Normally we have been a kind of grind-it-out type of team. This is kind of uncharted territory. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re scoring by passing, running and on defense.â&#x20AC;? Against Stryker, a ďŹ rst-year varsity program, junior linebacker Cayden Schober picked up a fumble and ran it in for a score, and freshman lineman Dakota Hawkins scooped up a fumbled punt snap and returned it for a touchdown. Those were the Rangersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ďŹ nal two scores. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t thinking to score,â&#x20AC;? James said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had some subs in the game in the second quarter. I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want the (ďŹ nal) score to get that ugly, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not going to tell the young kids not to score. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve played everybody on the roster pretty much the last three or four weeks.â&#x20AC;?
