Owners search for dogs in East Toledo By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Heather Shafer, of White Street in East Toledo, has been fervently looking for her small white Pomeranian dog, Bella, since it went missing from her backyard on Nov. 9. The 1 ½ year old dog was last seen playing with Shafer’s other dog, a St. Bernard puppy, in her backyard, which is enclosed by a privacy fence. Shafer and her mother had gone to the store for about 20 minutes, and when they returned, Bella was gone. The fence was still enclosed, and she doesn’t know how the dog vanished. “She was playing in the yard at about 6 p.m. I don’t know if someone came in and took her or what. The fence was still closed. Bella will go to anyone, she’s so friendly,” said Shafer. She and her family looked for her all night without success. “We jumped in the car and drove all around. We looked in the allies. She was nowhere to be found,” she said. Shafer has circulated fliers with Bella’s photo and a description, and has checked with the Lucas County Canine Care & Control (dog pound). She has received calls from people thinking they saw her, but
Bella, a small white Pomeranian dog, has been missing since November. nothing has come of the sightings, she said. The full-blooded Pomeranian is described as all white with just a hint of tan that is barely noticeable on her back, according to Shafer. She had given the dog a bath that day and forgot to put her collar back on. “Bella gets excited when she hears her
name called, or her nickname, `Bella-roo,’” said Shafer. “She would come to me if she heard me calling for her.” She and her three children have doted on Bella since Shafer saw an ad for a Pomeranian puppy for sale on Craigslist in 2013. “I had wanted a small Pomeranian. We drove to Michigan to get her. I really fell in love with her,” recalls Shafer. Bella got out once before when she was a puppy. Shafer’s sister was taking care of her while she was away, and the puppy slipped out the door. A woman in the neighborhood had taken her in until she saw one of the fliers and returned Bella. “She was gone for just a week. We put fliers out everywhere. We knew someone had to have her. Some lady saw one of the fliers and brought her back,” said Shafer. “When Bella was younger, she would stray, but not far. She would not run away today. That’s why I am surprised we couldn’t find her this time.” They even checked the home down the street they had moved from a few weeks ago, thinking Bella may have gone there, but she did not show up. Her children are taking it hard, she
The Ohio Supreme Court has denied a motion to reconsider a case it decided in October in which a Clay Township man sought to have a civil protection order against him dropped. The justices on Dec. 24 denied the motion filed by Tony Simon, N. Genoa-Clay Center Road, who had appealed a decision by the Ottawa County Common Pleas Court in 2011 to grant a request by Dorothy Fondessy for a protection order against Simon. The order is in effect for five years and directs Simon to stay at least 25 feet away from Fondessy and her husband, Wayne. The Ohio Sixth District Court of Appeals in 2013 upheld the common pleas court decision but agreed with a motion by Simon’s attorney to let the Supreme Court review its decision because there have been several conflicting rulings in other appellate courts on when protection orders should be issued. In October of last year, Chief Justice Maureen O’Connor was joined by justices Paul Pfeifer, Terrence O’Donnell and Judith Lanzinger in dismissing the Simon case as “improvidently certified.” Justices Sharon Kennedy, Judith French and William O’Neill dissented. In her dissent, Justice Kennedy stressed that the court when it received Simon’s appeal in 2013 directed the parties to submit briefs on whether state law “requires a victim to actually experience mental distress or only believe that the stalker will cause the victim harm or mental distress for a court to issue a civil protection order.” She wrote it’s imperative that state law “be interpreted by appellate courts in a consistent manner. This is currently not the situation.” Justices Kennedy, French and O’Neill also dissented in the decision to not reconsider the case. Ohio Revised Code states: “No person by engaging in a pattern of conduct shall knowingly cause another person to believe that the offender will cause physical harm to the other person or cause mental distress to the other person.” The Supreme Court heard oral argu-

Oregon gets some relief
Bill benefits vets The recent passage of Ohio House Bill 85 increases the amount of homestead exemption for military veterans who are rated 100 percent disabled from a service-related disability from $25,000 to $50,000, according to Ottawa County Auditor Lawrence Hartlaub. The bill also exempts disabled veterans from the income means testing, regardless of age. To receive the increased exemption under the bill, a homeowner must be a veteran of the United States armed forces, reserves, or National Guard who was honorably discharged with a service-connected total and permanent disability certified by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs or other federal agency. When applying for the exemption, the veteran must provide written confirmation of the disability from the federal government. Applications may be filed from Jan. 5 2015, until the first Monday in June. For more information, call the Ottawa County Auditor at 419-734-6740.
By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Oregon City Administrator Mike Beazley is breathing a little bit easier now with the recent passage of Ohio House Bill 5, which included an amendment that keeps Oregon from losing considerable revenue. The Ohio Legislature recently approved the bill, which streamlines Ohio’s municipal tax code. Businesses backed the measure, saying it creates a more business-friendly environment. Many local governments were opposed because they said it would add unnecessary administrative burdens on businesses and their employees who conduct business activities in municipalities. Ohio was the only state where municipalities set their own rules and regulations on collection of income taxes. Several different communities use different forms to collect annual income taxes. Beazley’s main concern was that the bill could cost the city up to $1 million in annual revenue due to a provision that increases from 12 to 20 the number of days an individual can work in a municipality without owing local income taxes. It would have particularly affected temporary contract workers at the refineries. An amendment keeps the withholding requirement at 12 days and allows for a look back to day one if 12 days are exceeded. Beazley said at a recent council meeting that he was pleased the bill passed with an amendment that shields Oregon from what would have had a negative impact on its financial resources. “The House Bill wrapped up, with an exemption that protects Oregon’s interests,� said Beazley. “We feel really good about that. There’s still some impact from it, but it is something that will work for us.� Beazley had travelled to Columbus many times to meet with legislators to express his concerns. “It’s something I worked on for a long time,� Beazley told The Press last week. “It was a real win for Oregon, when a lot of cit-

But we did all right. Oregon would have been among the hardest hit in the state because of the nature of our local industries, and the refineries in particular. The refineries are important economic drivers for the region and especially for Oregon. And we just wanted to make sure that the revenue from the income tax of the work force stayed in Oregon and didn’t go someplace else. The amendment that was added to the legislation accomplishes that.� He acknowledged that the bill is needed in Ohio. “The bill is important. The goal is legitimate. We need to make it as practical and easy as possible for people to do business in Ohio. We didn’t want to have so many sets
of rules and multiple jurisdictions in which to file that would discourage businesses and make it more expensive for businesses to be employing people in Ohio,� said Beazley. But as the legislation moved through the legislative process, amendments were added that were counterproductive to that goal and had the effect of hurting many communities, such as Oregon, he said. “Some of the challenges, as the legislation was moving through the system, were some other amendments that didn’t achieve that objective and would end up costing the cities a lot of money long term. Instead of just achieving uniformity, it would have ended up reducing the revenue that cities would receive from their local income taxes,� he said.
ments in the Simon case last August. Simon’s attorney, Wesley Miller, argued the appellate court misinterpreted the law by placing the burden of proof on Simon. Ernest Cottrell, attorney for Fondessy, countered if the Supreme Court adopted the actual cause standard for mental distress, many occurrences of psychologically damaging conduct would go unpunished and not rise to the level of protection from the courts because actual mental distress is difficult to prove.� In his motion for reconsideration, Miller wrote Simon and Fondessy “as well as all citizens of the state of Ohio have a right to equal protection under the law which requires statutes to be uniformly interpreted and applied in the state courts. This is now an improbability regarding R.C. 2903.211(A)(1) with this Court’s sua sponte dismissal.�

Owners search for dogs in East Toledo Continued from front page said. “They were devastated when she went missing because that was their baby,” she said. On Monday, she went to a shelter in Dayton after seeing an ad on a lost Pomeranian, thinking it was Bella. “She looked just like her. We drove all the way out there, but it wasn’t Bella,” she said. She’s recently had nightmares that something bad had happened to Bella. “I just hope she hasn’t been hurt,” she said. Shafer has posted information and a photo of Bella on the popular Facebook page “Toledo Area Lost and Found Pets” page, and continues to circulate fliers in hopes of getting her back. “Every time I go out, I just listen for her bark – that maybe I’ll hear her,” she said. “My family misses her and wants her home.” Shafer is offering a $100 reward for Bella’s return. Shafer can be contacted at 419-381-4909. Lost Boxer mix Lori Sodd is in the same boat as Shafer. Sodd, of Vinal Street in East Toledo, has been looking for her 4-year-old Boxer mix, Kierra, since it went missing on Nov. 1 after her daughter forgot to close the backyard gate and the dog slipped away. “She got out at 11 p.m. and was seen crossing Oakdale at 11:30 p.m. We went looking for her until 7 a.m., but couldn’t find her. We went out every day for weeks,”
Kierra, a 4-year-old Boxer mix, went missing on November 1st. she said. Sodd has had Kierra since she was a puppy. “I’ve had her since she was six weeks old. My sister’s dog had a litter, and I took her and a male puppy, who we named Maddix,” she said. Kierra, whose nickname is “Kee-Kee,” is described as brown, slightly brindle, with small black stripes on its coat. It is approximately 30 lbs. It has white paws, white on its upper chest, and white on its lower neck. The tail is docked.
Sodd said the dog is very sweet and still acts like a puppy. It looks younger than 4 years old, she added, because “she’s kind of small for a Boxer.” Unlike a Boxer, which has a short coat, Kierra has some fur. The most recent sighting of the dog was on Tuesday, when a woman on Andrus Road in Northwood thought she recognized it in her backyard. “She had dog treats, but it wouldn’t come to her,” said Sodd. The dog ran from the woman, who then called police. “The police couldn’t catch her. They thought she was limping, but didn’t think she was hurt badly because she ran fast,” said Sodd, who believes Kierra may have become skittish since she’s been lost. “She really is a very loving dog. If she starts kissing you, you would suffocate because she won’t stop,” she laughed. Sodd has circulated fliers and posted the dog’s photo on such online sites as “Toledo Area Lost and Found Pets,” on Facebook. She visits the Lucas County Canine Care & Control (dog pound), and the Wood County dog pound frequently. She doesn’t go every day because she lacks access to a vehicle, but she left contact information at both locations. Sodd, who is offering a $100 reward for Kierra’s return, can be contacted at 419810-0954. “She’s so attached to me. She’s my baby,” said Sodd. “I miss her so much.”

Pipeline construction project receives preliminary OK
“
By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com
North Coast is proposing to construct the 24-inch diameter pipeline to supply gas for an $800 million electric generation plant...
“
The staff of the Ohio Power Siting Board is recommending the approval of a proposed 22-mile natural gas pipeline between the cities of Maumee and Oregon provided that its construction meets environmental and other conditions. A staff report of the project was submitted Dec. 29 to the board for its review. The application by North Coast Gas Transmission, a Columbus-based company, will be automatically approved by Jan. 6 unless the board’s chairman, executive director or an administrative law judge decides the application should be suspended. The suspension would give the board an additional 90 days to make a decision. North Coast is proposing to construct the 24-inch diameter pipeline to supply natural gas for an $800 million electric generation plant to be built near the intersection of Lallendorf Road and York Street in Oregon. Construction of the pipeline is expected to begin in March and be completed by June 2016. An easement of 75 feet would be in effect along the route during construction on property where the line is installed and of that, 50-foot easements would remain in effect permanently. From Maumee, the line would run under the Maumee River and run through the City of Perrysburg and Perrysburg Township. From there, it proceeds northeast through Lake Township, the Village of Walbridge and City of Northwood, ending in Oregon. The proposed route would cut through about 180 parcels – a majority in Perrysburg, Lake Township, Rossford, Walbridge and Northwood as the proposed line runs northeast from I-75 to Curtice Road. A home in the 600 block of Cambridge Drive in Oregon is about 34 feet from the pipeline route, according to the report. Construction is to be limited to 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. or until dusk when sunset occurs after 7 p.m. Pile driving and blasting will have more limited hours within 1,000 feet
In the red is the route of North Coast Gas Transmission's proposed pipeline. of commercial and residential areas. Several conditions covering environmental issues are to be imposed during construction, including having an environmental specialist on site in sensitive areas.
A herpetologist approved by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources is also to be retained to determine if there is suitable Blanding’s turtle habitat along the project route and if so, to conduct a survey to detect their presence.
North Coast will be required to limit cutting to between October 1 and March 31 of trees suitable for bats unless the ODNR and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service agree to other times. Construction in habitat areas for the upland sandpiper will be avoided during the nesting period of April 15 through July 31 and in loggerhead shrike habitat between April 15 through Aug. 1. The habitat of the lark sparrow will be avoided from May 1 through June 30 and clearing of Kirkland’s warbler migration stopover habitat won’t be allowed from April 22 through June 1 and from Aug. 15 through Oct. 15. Affected property owners are to be notified at least 30 days prior to construction starting on their property. The company is also being required to consult with the Northwood Local School District to minimize disturbing district operations. Unless given permission by the district, construction on and near school property won’t be allowed while classes are in session. An administrative law judge last Tuesday upheld North Coast’s request to keep the estimated cost of the project confidential.

A familiar road doesn’t mean satisfaction Letters Dare to Live
by Bryan Golden
“
You have to climb out of the rut in order to explore new directions.
“
Familiarity provides a certain level of comfort. There is a sense of safety along with predictability. Habits, routines, jobs, relationships, friends, and goals can all become familiar. The familiar road appears to be less risky. There is a supposed greater chance for success. The need for dealing with change is reduced. The familiar road may be one which follows someone who went before you. Your direction is based on what your parents, relatives, or friends have done. Rather than taking your own path based on your strengths, weaknesses, likes, and dislikes, you follow behind someone else. Familiarity is great when your life is on the exact track you desire. Familiarity works against you in situations where you are not where you want to be, but yet have decided to take the path of least effort. You don’t have to settle for situations or circumstances which are less than ideal. There are several strategies people use to justify staying on the familiar road in spite of the fact they are unhappy and unsatisfied. The most common tactic is making excuses for why they do not change course. They may claim they can’t, don’t know how, are too old, are too young, lack experience, don’t have enough money, don’t want to take risks, or are short on time, etc. The excuses are limitless but the results are the same; to justify not making any changes. Another approach is to blame other people or circumstances for the route they are on. They develop a victim mentality by abdicating any responsibility for their own life. They stay on their familiar road because, for whatever reason, they have no choice.
A third strategy is convincing one’s self that the familiar road they are on is actually the one they really want. They make statements such as, “It’s the best I can get,” “I don’t deserve more,” “I really do like what I’m doing,” “Things could be worse,” or “I have responsibilities.” Their beliefs, whatever they may be, are designed to justify why they are where they are. The familiar road, if it’s not genuinely your ideal path, more often than not becomes a constraining rut. You don’t recognize the trap this has become because you are so comfortable. In order to achieve more and grow, you need to leave a limiting road which has be-
come familiar. Exiting your comfort zone is essential. You have to climb out of the rut in order to explore new directions. Change should be welcomed, not feared. In order to depart from the familiar road, you develop an understanding of yourself along with identifying goals which you find highly desirable. The road you want to follow is one based on your passions. Strip away all of the excuses. What is it you want to accomplish more than anything else? Changing direction usually isn’t accomplished overnight. Success is enhanced when you build confidence by making small changes before embarking on major shifts. Explore new avenues. Begin with small excursions down unfamiliar roads. Do something you haven’t done before just for the experience. You’ll realize your fear of change is not based on reality but has grown out of proportion in your mind. Fear of change is overcome through action. Nothing will change until you make it happen. Life offers limitless opportunities. All roads are open to you. The only things constraining you to a particular path are your beliefs. Rather than formulating countless excuses as to why you are stuck, just come up with one reason as to why you can, and should, head out in a different direction.

Time to permanently end Cuban embargo? What did President Barack Obama mean when he declared that Washington will normalize relations with Cuba? Will they become the same as U.S. relations with any other country? Will all Americans be free to travel there? To do business with Cuba? Or will the strict restrictions in place for more than half a century merely get tweaked? After all, our economic embargo will remain in place unless Congress acts. I knew very little about Cuba when I went there on a reporting trip in 2010. I’d wanted to go ever since I found out that most Americans are banned from going there by our own government. We’re the land of the free, right? So why can’t we go to Cuba? My contrarian desire to visit grew when I learned that Cuba had unintentionally become a haven of organic agriculture. Here’s how that happened. After the Soviet bloc collapsed, the U.S. government tightened its embargo on the island nation. By the early 1990s, Cuba found itself without enough trading partners. That meant it lacked food, fuel, fertilizers, pesticides, and other agricultural inputs. Cuba faced a choice: starve, or go organic. It went organic. The country made incredible strides in cutting pesticides and fertilizers out of its agriculture. Because Cubans are remarkably well-educated, they used modern sci-

ence to develop their organic system. And it worked. So that’s what I went there to see. I visited urban farms, learned about using beneficial insects to eliminate pests, and tasted the most delicious tropical fruits I’ve ever eaten. I wasn’t on a political trip, but you can’t avoid politics in Cuba. In a nutshell, here’s what I learned. Most Cubans are incredibly poor. But they have a ready explanation for the economic hardships they experience.
The failure of communism? Nope. They blame the U.S. embargo. From their point of view, maybe the Castros would have managed to muddle along just fine if it weren’t for the American embargo. So until Washington drops its economic blockade, the Cuban government will always have a ready-made excuse for why its people are so poor. If you want Cuba to change its ways, why not take that excuse away from the Castro brothers? Let them take full responsibility for Cuba’s well-being, for better or worse. When I returned, U.S. customs personnel gave me the run-around despite my having traveled legally as a journalist. I became irate at the hypocrisy. After I spent a summer in Beijing back in college, no one gave me a hard time — because the U.S. has no embargo or travel ban on China. Why is it OK for us to go to (and do business with) communist China but not communist Cuba? The double standard pokes a hole in every single justification given for keeping the embargo in place. I’m so grateful to Obama for taking a step toward bringing an end to this nonsense. I hope Congress now goes whole hog and restores the U.S.-Cuba relationship to sanity by ending the embargo once and for all.

What comes next? To the editor: As a staunch conservative, I am thoroughly disgusted with how the Republicans have squandered their November victory in the House and Senate. How could they vote to give the Democrats and President Obama this budget victory? What comes next? His immigration policy? Just how could they vote for a bill which no one read? Remember what Nancy Pelosi said about Obama Care? “We need to pass this so we can find out what’s in it.” The Republicans went crazy over that statement only to do the same thing with this budget bill. So what makes Republicans better than Democrats? We are tired of having to vote for the lesser of two evils. If you think the low turnout of conservatives in 2012 was bad, the turn out in 2016 is going to be even worse. My friends and I have been talking and you Republicans (so-called conservatives) are going to have to earn our votes in 2016. What you have just done is the last straw. We have lost all faith in the Republican Party. You have thrown my and my friends’ votes away. With this budget vote, you said we don’t count. Well, we will show you next time that our votes do count. Rufus E. Wallace Millbury
Ward deserves honors To the editor: Gene Ward first put on skates (through shaky) in 1972 to coach Lake hockey. Jim Mitchell and I asked him many times to coach; he finally give in and that began his long and fruitful coaching career in hockey. Jim’s father, Bill Mitchell, who played pro hockey and coach Toledo Blades, helped Wardy that first year, for he knew very little of the sport. That was our senior year – the first year of high school hockey in Toledo area. If I remember right, we lost only two games, which Jim and I missed because we were playing on the Toledo Jr. Blades, which was our main team. The world of hockey was blessed to have a great, stern-but-gentle man like Gene for many years. God bless him. Don Schumaker Curtice

Top trending story of the past year: Green slime Here are 10 possible trends that could emerge from the stories that made The Press in 2014.
2) Level Three Questions: The brutal winter of 2014 created the usual fears: flooding in Pemberville and Oak Harbor; snow covered sidewalks creating danger for pedestrians forced to walk in the streets; black ice leading to falls and accidents, etc. But, new concerns arose for employers and public officials: When to call a Level 3 snow emergency and when to call in employees? How do you balance safety concerns with the responsibility to serve your customers? If you call in an employee and he is arrested for being out in a Level 3, who pays the cost? If employees refuse to come in to work citing it’s illegal to drive in a Level 3, can they be disciplined? All this becomes more complicated because many employees cross county lines going to work and snow emergencies can range from Level 1 to Level 3 in a given county.
“
The threat to our multi-billion dollar fishing and tourism industry is real.
“
1) Green Slime: (This is reprinted from my 2013 emerging trends column and was applicable again in 2014, the year of Toledo’s drinking water crisis.) The progress seems painfully slow. The threat to our multi-billion dollar fishing and tourism industry is real. So real it has spurred bipartisan support in the Ohio legislature… in the newly-formed Lake Erie Caucus. The caucus will address open-lake dumping of dredge material and phosphorous run-off from farm fields, two practices that, coupled with aging sewer systems, are the likely culprits contributing to toxic-algal blooms (green slime). In 2011 the slime covered some 2,000 square miles. It can be as toxic as cobra venom. Will the green cobra rear its head again in August of 2015?
slated for Camp Perry, citing opposition from birding organizations. The marshes along Lake Erie serve as a resting place for songbirds riding one of the busiest flyways in the nation. Any windmill posing a danger to these birds, which draw some 60,000 tourists to our area during the spring, will be met with fierce opposition.
3) Candid Camera: Tensions flared across the nation regarding the deaths of two black men at the hands of police officers in Ferguson, Missouri and New York City. Locally, residents in Woodville packed council chambers to protest the shooting of a dog by a village police officer. These incidents triggered the call to equip police vehicles with dash cams and officers with vest cams. Look for a new reality show gleaned from all this video. 4) Birds on the Wind: You would think birders would welcome the green energy from wind turbines, but that’s not always the case. Turbines in migratory flyways can pose a considerable risk to songbirds including those federally protected due to low numbers. The Ohio National Guard this spring canceled its turbine project
5) Bring Down the House: The Lucas County Land Bank demolished 93 homes in East Toledo from August 2012 to September 2014. Another 105 are scheduled for demolition before June 2016. A survey of 11,000 properties in East Toledo will help provide a blueprint for future demolitions. There’s no let up in sight and this effort will help raise property values. 6) Our Open Arms: Given the state of unrest throughout the globe, many educated refugees are looking for a new home. Lucas County is throwing out the welcome mat by proposing the Welcome ToledoLucas County Initiative. The initiative, currently in discussion talks with area residents, will market Lucas County to the U. S. State Department as an immigrant-friendly community. Our long history of accepting diversity will get richer. 7) Blue Trails: The Toledo area Metroparks are known for their walking, biking, horse and ski trails. In 2014, the Metroparks unveiled a kayaking program at Side Cut Metropark and development plans call for a six mile “blue trail” for canoes at Howard Farms, the new park just west of Metzger Marsh. The Middlegrounds, located in downtown Toledo, is a future Metropark that will also have water access. 8) Rates Go Up for What You Flush Down: Toledo is raising sewer rates 52
percent in the next six years; Oregon will up its rate $34.32 a year and Northwestern Water and Sewer District, which services primarily Wood County, has also increased rates. Look for higher rates as public officials strive to meet mandated EPA guidelines. 9) Renaissance or rebalancing?: Local development experts tout American manufacturing is on the rebound. They cite stabilized labor costs due to the Big Recession, higher shipping costs, higher import duties, freight damage, insurance costs and the need to adjust quickly to changing consumer tastes as reasons to produce goods closer to the American consumer. This welcome trend of bringing back jobs lost over seas will continue, although experts aren’t sure this is a renaissance or simply a rebalancing. 10) Social Media, Too Quick to Convict: A Toledo woman posted a lie on Facebook under an assumed name. She accused her ex-boyfriend of raping four young children. The lie garnered 35,000 shares and led to threats on the man’s life.

Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast” comes to town Disney’s smash-hit musical, “Beauty and the Beast,” is coming to Toledo for three performances only Jan. 23 and 24 at the Stranahan Theater. Performance times are 7 p.m. Friday and 2 and 7:30 p.m. Saturday. The production, a special engagement to the Theater League’s 2014–2015 Broadway in Toledo season, is the classic story of Belle, a young woman in a provincial town, and the Beast, who is really a young prince trapped in a spell placed by an enchantress. If the Beast can learn to love and be loved, the curse will end and he will be transformed to his former self. But time is running out. If the Beast does not learn his lesson soon, he and his household will be doomed for all eternity. The show features the animated film’s Academy Award-winning score with music by Alan Menken and lyrics by the late Howard Ashman, with additional songs with music by Alan Menken and lyrics by Tim Rice. The original creators of the Broadway production come together for this new touring production. For information on the production, visit www.BeautyAndTheBeastOnTour. com.

Incredible achievements mark 2014’s top sports events By J. Patrick Eaken Press Sports Editor sports@presspublications.com As you’re driving Woodville Road past vacant buildings, a torn down Woodville Mall, and blight in East Toledo, you might be thinking that nothing gets done on this side of the Maumee River. You couldn’t be more wrong. There are some incredible people from this side of town who accomplished some incredible achievements. Hopefully, these people will turn any discouragement about our community into encouragement. In the world of sports, here are our top 15 athletic achievements in 2014. 1. Three state wrestling champions. Genoa junior Jay Nino won a Division III state championship at 220 pounds and set a state record with 65 wins (65-2) — the most for a single season in Ohio history. Clay junior Richie Screptock (48-9) won his school’s first state championship, taking the D-I title at 132 and East Toledo resident and Central Catholic junior Nate Hagan (42-10) won a D-II title at 132. All three are back to defend as seniors this year.
3. Two pitchers make Major League debuts. Chicago White Sox pitcher Chris Bassitt (Genoa) and Minnesota Twins hurler A.J. Achter (Clay) both recorded their first Major League win against Detroit. Bassitt, a Curtice native, posted a 1-1 record and 3.94 ERA in six games — five starts, but in the offseason was traded to Oakland. Achter pitched in seven games, posting a 3.27 ERA in 11 innings of relief. 4. Wounded Warrior champion. Melissa Coduti, a 2000 Northwood graduate and U.S. Air Force veteran now 32-yearsold, competes for Team USA in Wounded Warrior paralympic-style world events. She began training for the inaugural Invictus Games, a four-day event held in London in September. More than 400 competitors from 13 nations took part in the event, which was championed by none other than Prince Harry himself. Coduti returned with a gold medal in the 100 meters (15.7 seconds) and silver medal in heavyweight power lifting with a 132-pound bench press. 5. Drafted. Former Waite and Florida State 6-foot-2 star forward Natasha Howard made her preseason WNBA debut, and she led the Indiana Fever with 14 points on 6-of-12 shooting. Howard made FSU program history by becoming the school’s highest WNBA draft pick at fifth overall. At FSU, Howard earned honorable mention All-America honors from the Associated Press and the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association, and was a second team Senior

She finished her Florida State career with a program-record 41 double-doubles, including a single-season record 15 in her senior season. One of the most remarkable individual feats was when she accumulated five 30-plus point games her senior year. All five high-scoring efforts came against ACC competition, including a school-record 40 points in an 8359 win at Syracuse. 6. SEC champion. Genoa grad and University of Kentucky junior thrower Brad Szypka captured the Southeastern Conference title by throwing the 16-pound shot 63-10½, becoming the first Wildcat athlete to win the conference shot put title in a decade. Szypka placed fifth at the NCAA D-I national meet in New Mexico, throwing the shot a personal-best 64-Ÿ. He earned the UK men’s team its only four points of the meet. 7. Kylee Ault, a 2012 Clay grad, is a member of the Bowling Green State University co-ed cheerleading squad that won ESPN’s nationally-televised 2014 College Cheer and Dance Championships in Orlando, Fla., beating runner-up and defending champion Hofstra and third-place Southeastern Louisiana. Hofstra had won the last five national titles and eight of 11. 8. Woodville’s Zach Sandwisch is a starting linebacker on Central Catholic’s D-III state championship football team. In what is now considered one of the most exciting state championship games ever, Central defeated Athens and it’s quarterback, Ohio State recruit and Ohio’s 2014 Mr. Football, Joe Burrow, 56-52. Sandwisch’s name is repeated over and over by Sports Time Ohio television broadcasters when Central’s defense is on the field, as he leads the Fighting Irish with 10 tackles (four solo,

six assists), including one tackle for a loss. 9. Upset in tournament — two stateranked Clay girls teams. Clay softball finished 28-3 overall, a perfect 14-0 in the TRAC, won sectional and district titles, but lost in a regional semifinal, 8-6, in eight innings to No. 4 Elyria (23-7), when senior pitcher Brooke Gallaher was called for an illegal pitch five times by the third base umpire, twice with runners on third base who were allowed to score. Gallaher had not been called for that all season and even Elyria fans were stunned that it was even called at all. Clay girls’ soccer was just as impressive, going 15-0-2 in the regular season, winning a TRAC title, their second in three years, and a sectional championship before falling in heartbreaking fashion to Notre Dame Academy, 2-1, in double overtime in the D-I district semifinals. The Eagles had defeated NDA during the regular season, but NDA scored the winning goal in the last minute of the second overtime of the tournament game at Findlay’s Elmer Graham Stadium. 10. Dog bird hunting champion. A former three-sport athlete at Waite who is now an East Toledo businessman, 56-yearold Oregon resident Dan Steingraber, dog Scout, and human partner Kevin Keisel of Pennsylvania won first place at the United Field Trailers Association Flushing Doubles National Championship in dog
11. Kent State wrestler Ian Miller (Oak Harbor) finishes fourth at the NCAA Division I national tournament and entered the 2014-15 season ranked third in country in his weight class. In the Mid-American Conference, where he will have to defend his championship, he is ranked No. 1 12. Half century in the making. Under first-year coach Dan Chipka, Waite football won a Toledo City League co-championship, the school’s first gridiron title since 1963 — a gap stretching 51 years. The Indians finished 5-5 overall and 4-1 in the City. 13. Ultimate Fighter. Woodmore grad Johnny “Brutal� Bedford is taking his national television exposure and getting mixed martial arts fights at major venues across country. Since his graduation in 2001, Bedford signed with the Ultimate Fighting Championship. He was a competitor on Spike TV’s “The Ultimate Fighter: Team Bisping vs. Team Miller.� On June 28, Bedford fought Rani Yahya at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas. 14. Greco/Freestyle champion. Sixfoot-2 then-Clay junior Matt Stencel, who placed second at the D-I state wrestling tournament in Columbus in March, at age 16 pinned all five opponents in the first period in the Greco events, and he easily went 5-0 in the freestyle events to win two first place titles at 195 pounds at the ASICS Vaughan Cadet Nationals in Fargo, N.D. Stencel helped Ohio take third in the freestyle team standings and finish fourth in the Greco team standings. He was one of just two Ohio wrestlers to win one of the 17 weight classes in the Greco events. 15. Milestone. Lake baseball coach Greg Wilker gets win No. 500. During his 30-year tenure, Wilker’s teams have won seven league titles in three different conferences, five district titles and one regional championship. Wilker earned his 500th win during the Flyers’ 19-4 defeat of Port Clinton.

2. Two state track champions. After winning the Division II state title in 2009 and 2010 and finishing second in 2008, Eastwood finished third at the D-II state meet with 38 points behind Dayton Dunbar (47) and Cuyahoga Valley Christian Academy (46). The Eagles won a state championship in the 4x400 meter relay, finishing in three minutes, 18.09 seconds. The 4x400 team consisted of Tim Hoodlebrink, Joe Salinas, Brennan Seifert and Devin Snowden came in nearly two seconds ahead of second place Dunbar. Genoa’s Logan Bryer, now throwing at the University of Kentucky, brought home a state title in the D-II shot put with a winning toss of 55 feet, 8 inches, which was not a season best. He found out the following Monday that he had mononucleosis while competing at state.

Comets 2nd at Northcoast Duals
The Press Box
Genoa wrestlers went a perfect 4-0 in their pool in the third annual Northcoast Holiday Duals held at Genoa High school December 27, but finished as tournament runners-up. Genoa, who has dominated the event since its start in 2012 by going a combined 22-0 in duals, slipped to Elmwood in the finals by a score of 42-33. Finishing at 5-0 for the Comets were Damian D’Emilio (18-2) at 126 pounds, Brandon Bates (16-2) at 145, Tyler Baird (16-3) at 182, and Trey Neumann (6-9) at 120. Finishing with a record of 4-1 was the freshman duo of Andrew Muir (15-5) and Seth Moore (11-8). Adam Bates (137) at 132, Matt Herrick (10-6) at 220 and Thor Morrison (10-10) at 106 went 3-2. Genoa improves their record to 9-10 on the year and will next be in competition on January 6 in an NBC dual against Woodmore and Elmwood.
Record crowd at Fifth Third Field watches history A record crowd of 11,222 watched the first ever East Coast Hockey League outdoor hockey game at Fifth Third Field, the home of the Toledo Mud Hens, the first Saturday of WinterFest. Not only was Saturday historical from a first ever standpoint, it was the largest crowd ever to watch a professional hockey game in Toledo with 11,222 fans in attendance at the home of the Toledo Mud Hens. The previous record was 8,250 set on October 15, 2011 at the Huntington Center. The record crowd vaulted Toledo’s season attendance average to 6,130 per game, which is third best in the ECHL. Kalamazoo didn’t dampen the spirits of a great crowd despite beating the Walleye 2-1 with a goal late in the third period. Toledo is 8-3-2-1 at home after the loss. A physical start to the game entertained the vocal fans until Kalamazoo forward Ludwig Blomstrand scored the first goal of the game at 19:41 of the first. “What a great day for the Toledo community,” said Walleye coach Derek Lalonde. “The fan support for this was amazing from the start of the game through the finish.” Forward Tyler Barnes (13th goal) tied the game at a goal when he one-timed a Shane Berschbach pass into the net just 1:06 in the second period. The game remained tied throughout the second period. Toledo was unable to score on a third period power play and the game stayed even until Matt Caria wristed a shot past Toledo goaltender Jeff Lerg with 3:23 left in the third period to give Kalamazoo the win. Lerg made 27 saves on the 29 shots he faced. December has not cooled off Barnes as he has picked up at least one point in 10 of the 11 games played. For the month,

Toledo Walleye forward Kyle Bonis tries to score on Kalamazoo goalkeeper Joel Martin at Fifth Third Field. (Courtesy the Toledo Walleye/Scott Grau) Barnes has seven goals with ten assists for 17 points and is a plus 10. The first year forward leads the Walleye in points (33), assists (20), plus/minus (plus 17), and is tied with Anthony Luciani and Kyle Bonis for the team lead in goals with 13. History was made again last Saturday night when the Toledo Walleye played the Fort Wayne Komets at Fifth Third Field. The Walleye had a 3-0-0 record so far this season against the Komets going into that game. Prior to that game, the Walleye headed to Brampton for a pair of games on Tuesday and Wednesday. Toledo took the first two meetings this season back in October by scores of 6-3 and 4-2. Tuesday, Luciani picked up three assists to help Toledo to a 6-3 win Tuesday night in Brampton. Toledo has an overall record of 20-5-2-1 on the season and is 122-0-0 on the road. The two teams finished the two game set Wednesday. Brampton scored a power play at 9:55 of the first period to grab the lead. At 11:14, Toledo tied the game as Shane Berschbach
(6th) wristed a shot past Beast goaltender Grant Rollheiser. Shane Sims fired a perfect pass to center to send Michael Leone and Martin Frk in alone and Frk (10th) finished the play at 18:25 for a 2-1 Walleye after one period. Just 33 seconds into the second period Kyle Bonis scored his team-leading 14th goal of the season for a 3-1 Toledo lead. Alden Hirschfeld (6th) wristed in a goal at 2:20 of the second period for a 4-1 Walleye advantage. Following a goaltending change, Brampton scored twice to close within a goal after two periods. Troy Schwab deflected in his eighth goal of the year at 4:35 of the third period to give Toledo a two goal lead. Justin Mercier (9th) finished the scoring at 11:57. Lerg made 19 saves on the 22 shots he faced and he has a record of 13-3-1-1. Toledo out shot Brampton 44-22 in the game and has gone over 40 shots in all three games played against the Beast this year. (— by Walleye broadcaster Matt Melzak and media director Andi Roman)

Hess sisters have high-scoring Eagles off to fast start By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com
At left, Clay junior Hannah Hess (5) looks to score in Tuesday's non-league win over visiting Waite, and at right, her twin sister, point guard Haley Hess (21) brings the basketball up the court. (Press photos by Scott Grau/TRACsports.org)
“
Eagles scored over 90 points in that victory and perhaps could have put up 100. Slovak has someone to play nearly every role — making it hard for opponents to scout and figure out. Sydney Hess (5-7) is Slovak’s defensive specialist and Maddison Grimes, one of the tallest players on the team at 5-8, gives the Eagles a good rebounder and provides leadership. Hannah Kuhlman (5-5) serves as another three-point threat and Jessalyn Bohland (5-9) provides rebounding and a defensive presence in the post.
The improvement and evolution of this group has been special.
Seven seniors lead But there’s one job that Slovak is still trying to fill, mostly because he doesn’t have the size to fill it. But he’s found a way to get past that. “We really don’t have a true post player,” said Slovak, who is now in his fifth year, “but one of our strengths is that, of most lineups we put out there, three or four or even all five girls can handle the ball.” The depth and versatility is something Clay will have to use to its advantage as it
looks to wear down opponents. “We are definitely an up-tempo, get out and go type of team on offense,” Slovak said. “With our guards and shooters, we want to take advantage of teams who aren’t used to playing fast for 32 minutes. Defensively, we need to put pressure on teams outside of the key. And with our lack of size, getting into halfcourt, slow-down types of games is not what we want to do.” Making Slovak’s job even easier is his
“
The Clay girls’ basketball program’s turnaround appears to be in full swing. Two years after winning just five games, the Clay Eagles are 8-1 overall and 3-1 in the Three Rivers Athletic Conference. If there is anything this team does well, it is shoot the ball. Clay has made 126-of219 (57.5 percent) of its field goals, including an impressive 56-of-132 (42.4 percent) three-pointers. And while the Eagles’ freethrow shooting, 94-of-137 (68.6 percent), is far from spectacular, it’s good enough. Scoring is half the battle. Coach Corey Slovak says Clay has been exerting pressure on its opponents while trying to wreak havoc and create an up-tempo style of play. “The start to the season has gone as well as expected,” Slovak said. “Except for our loss at Central Catholic, we have been really good at the things we need to be good at — shooting, creating turnovers, free-throw shooting — and we have survived our weaknesses — lack of size for rebounding. As a coach, I am most proud that our team has found different ways to win. We were able to win three straight TRAC road games, a low scoring, physical game versus Start, and two shootout-type of games versus Springfield and Bowsher.” Since losing to Central in early December, the Eagles reeled off seven consecutive victories and did so in a dominanting fashion. Just one of those wins came by single digits, 47-42 over an 8-2 Start team. The run includes victories over Findlay, Fremont Ross, St. Ursula, Bowsher, Springfield and Waite, five on which were on the road. Clay’s first win came in the season opener against Delta. Junior point guard Haley Hess (5-foot7) leads the way, averaging 18.5 points. She’s hitting 66.7 percent of her field goals, including 43.1 percent from beyond the three-point arc and 79.1 percent from the free throw line. Twin sister Hannah (5-8) is second in scoring, averaging 13.8 points on 56.8 percent shooting, including 48.6 percent from three-point territory and 63.6 percent at the charity stripe. The Hess sisters are joined by Sam Enck (5-5), Hannah Novak (5-7) and Haley Orr (5-6) in the starting lineup. Enck is averaging 8.3 points on 64.3 percent shooting while Novak is chipping in with an even six points per game on 59.3 percent shooting. Orr has gotten into the act as well, averaging 4.6 points. Morgan Connor (5-7), who recently returned from a knee injury, also provides long-range shooting and serves as the sixth man. In one of her first games back, she scored 17 points and connected on three treys in Clay’s win over Bowsher. The
team’s experience — he has seven seniors on the roster — Enck, Novak, Orr, Connor, Grimes, Bohland and Jenna Kidd. “Having the seven seniors can be a blessing or a curse,” Slovak said. “For us, it’s been a blessing to this point. Those girls have become leaders on and off the floor, and they have bought into what the culture of our program is about. This group will always be special for me, no matter what our final record ends up being because they are the ones responsible for turning the program back around into a competitive, winning program.” In the last two years, the Eagles have gone from 5-18 to 14-10 to 8-1 at this point in the season. “The improvement and evolution of this group has been special,” Slovak said. “The turnaround began when our current group of seniors was sophomores. As freshman the year before, they were 16-1 and won the TRAC. Then, many of them played varsity as sophomores, probably before they were really ready, and losing 14 games was a big wake up call.”
Eric Cellier finds small college basketball challenging By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Upland, Ind., home of Taylor University, is about a two and a half hour drive from where Eric Cellier grew up in Northwood, Ohio. Basketball-wise, the talent level the 6-foot-3 sophomore guard has seen at the NAIA Division II college level is light years ahead of where Cellier dominated on the hardwood at Toledo Christian High School. “Humbling is the word I would use,” Cellier said of playing college ball. “You go in expecting to make a difference, make an impact. Real quick, you start to realize this is no joke.” Cellier was referred to Taylor by his high school coach, Dave McWhinnie, who played soccer for the Trojans years ago. Taylor is an NAIA school and a member of the 10-team Crossroads League. On Dec. 18, at the Northwood Holiday Tournament in Palm Beach, Fla., the Trojans fell just short of knocking off one of the top-ranked teams in the nation in Northwood University, falling 68-66. Taylor rebounded the next night to beat Edward Waters College, 55-40, but Cellier did not play in the victory. He played just one minute in the loss to Northwood U., and he did not play in Tuesday’s 63-52 win over Siena Heights. “It’s tough,” Cellier said of a lack of playing time. “I was surprised, honestly, at the competition level. People think NAIA Division II, but the players are really good. The competition is really good and wellcoached. We’ve played against so many studs the last couple years. I was like, wow, these guys know how to play and they’re

We have the best shooter I’ve ever played with, (senior) Jesse Coffee, and we have a second-team allconference kid (junior Kyle Stidom) who’s a really good player. There are three good (guards) ahead of me, but I’m getting better. NAIA has a lot of Division I transfers, and
for whatever reason a lot of players transfer here from bigger schools.” Taylor, which is located between Indianapolis and Ft. Wayne, features five players from Ohio. Through Tuesday, Cellier had played in eight of the Trojans’ 15 games and was averaging about five minutes a game. He was shooting 4-for-13 from the field (31 percent) and 5-of-6 from
the free throw line, with eight rebounds, three steals, two assists and four turnovers. Riding the pine is not an easy thing to handle for someone of Cellier’s pedigree. The 2013 Toledo Christian grad, who was named Toledo Area Athletic Conference Player of the Year as a senior, averaged 21.7 points a game and was as first-team AllOhio selection in Division IV in 2013. “This is college basketball and these guys work at it,” Cellier said. “You gotta work at it if you want to play. You have to work harder to get better. Thankfully, coach McWhinnie taught me how do to that. Anything you want is not easy to get, you have to work at it. I’m still trying to do that. As a competitor, you want to play.” Josh Andrews is in his second season as the Trojans’ head coach, and Cellier said Andrews has the program headed in the right direction. Taylor is 9-6 this season after going 11-19 (5-13 Crossroads) a year ago. “This year, we’re going somewhere,” Cellier said. “A couple of our freshmen are really good. This is the second year with coach Andrews, and understanding his offensive and defensive philosophy and how he wants to get things done, starting the year, helped things out. I like it here. The people here are super nice.” Cellier, a business management major, said he has no plans to transfer to another school. “Getting more playing time my junior and senior year, that’s the plan,” he said. “I just have to keep getting stronger and keep working on the sport and getting more athletic. I think it will come. I enjoy playing for coach Andrews. He didn’t recruit me, but I enjoy playing for him and I’m glad things worked out the way they did.”

Bassitt fights off tears during Genoa homecoming
“
By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com
Growing up here was big... I had a love for competing and Genoa was great for that.
“
Genoa has churned its share of baseball players, but none have reached the heights of Chris Bassitt. The former Comet, who graduated from Genoa High School in 2007, made his Major League debut last summer, then came home to be honored at halftime of the Genoa-Bowsher basketball game two days before Christmas. The village of Curtice, Bassitt’s hometown, will now have a sign acknowledging his achievement reaching the Major Leagues, and the high school’s baseball field will hang a banner on its fence honoring him. Needless to say, Bassitt was appreciative of the gesture shown to him by the Genoa community. “Luckily, I’m not that emotional or I might have shed a tear,” he said. “That was way more than I could’ve imagined. It’s nice to be recognized like this.” Bassitt, who, in addition to being a great pitcher, played quarterback for the football team and was a forward on the basketball team in high school, says he benefited from growing up in a town that loves baseball. “This town loves its sports, and baseball has always been a big thing,” he said. “Growing up here was big — I can remember people talking about the 1999 team (Division III state semifinalists). I had a love for competing and Genoa was great for that.” Bassitt hopes he can serve as an example for young baseball players in the community to look up to. “It’s nice just because I didn’t have (a local professional ballplayer) to look up to,” he said. “Now people have someone that they can see (reached the Major Leagues).” He isn’t the only Bassitt to have left his mark on Genoa sports history. His brother, Matt, was also a three-sport star and quarterback of the football team that advanced to the Division IV state semifinals in 2008. Earlier this month, Chris Bassitt, along with Marcus Semien, Rangel Ravelo and
The Genoa Comets athletic director Mike Thomas presents Oakland A’s pitcher Chris Bassitt with the jersey that will be retired at his alma mater. (Press photo by Harold Hamilton/HEHphotos.smugmug.com) Josh Phegley, were traded from the Chicago White Sox to Oakland in exchange for Michael Ynoa and Jeff Samardzija, the primary piece in the deal. Samardzija, who has career record of 36-48 with a 3.85 ERA, is considered one of the game’s best young pitchers. Drafted by Chicago in the 16th round of the 2011 MLB Draft, Bassitt spent time in the minors before finally being called up in August. On Aug. 30, he made his Major League debut and pitched against Detroit at the White Sox’s U.S. Cellular Field before friends and family. Bassitt, who graduated from the University of Akron in 2011 with an engineering degree, started five games and went 1-1 with a 3.94 ERA for the Sox. His first career win came on September 10 against his current team when he went six innings and allowed just one run on
five hits and struck out five in Chicago’s 2-1 win over Oakland. Twelve days later, he pitched the White Sox to victory over the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park, allowing no runs on six hits and three strikeouts in 7.2 innings while again pitching before family and friends. Following his time in Chicago, Bassitt pitched in the Arizona Fall League and was simply brilliant, posting a 0.69 ERA to go with 22 strikeouts and three walks in 13 innings of work. Based on the way he pitched in the minor leagues, in addition to his short stint with the White Sox, there’s reason to believe Bassitt also has a shot at becoming one of baseball’s promising young pitchers. Four years in the minors saw him start 44 games and accumulate a 22-10 record with a 2.97 ERA.
Bassitt was brought to Oakland by A’s general manager Billy Beane, for whom the book and film, Moneyball, was based. Beane has a reputation for executing a multitude of brilliant trades, and this one with Bassitt may be another one in that long list. “(The A’s) have a system in place,” Bassitt said. “They get young, up-andcoming guys together and they’ve had success. It’s hard to argue with what they do. Everybody thinks they’re tanking (after making these trades), and they come out and have a good season.” Oakland is a perennial playoff contender, having won the division in two of the last three seasons while advancing to the playoffs three straight times. If Bassitt starts the season with the A’s, he’ll likely join two good pitchers in the starting rotation, Sonny Gray (14-10, 3.08 ERA) and former Cleveland Indian Scott Kazmir (159, 3.55 ERA). Gray, like Bassitt, is another future promise, having been named 2014 National Amateur Baseball Federation Graduate of the Year because of his play in amateur youth baseball, just a few years ago. Pitchers and catchers report to Oakland’s spring training in Mesa, Arizona in mid-February. Until then, Bassitt hopes to enjoy his free time while continuing to work out in preparation for the season. In addition, he’s got the promise of working in the Bay Area as something to look forward to, as long as he stays in the Majors. “I’ve only heard really good things about California,” he said. “I know (the weather) is a lot nicer there than it is in the Midwest.”

Despite injury, count on Lauren Ozuk to bounce back By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Lake girls basketball coach Jim Gracyk likes to see various attributes in his players. Athletic ability is probably at the top of the list, but toughness and a strong work ethic are right up there. One thing the veteran coach has learned about Lauren Ozuk, the Flyers’ 5-foot-8 junior post player, is that Ozuk’s work ethic cannot be questioned. “If she were 5-11, she’d be illegal,” Gracyk deadpanned. “I decided who the captains were going to be this year, Lauren and (senior guard) Jordyn Taylor. Those two kids work hard all the time. Some kids work hard and some work hard and are effective. Some try hard but are not effective. Lauren works very hard, like Jordyn.” Ozuk played on the junior varsity team as a freshman and came off the varsity bench sparingly last year as a junior. This season, through eight games, Ozuk was averaging a double-double (11 points, 10 rebounds) to help Gracyk’s squad get off to a 6-4 start (2-2 Northern Buckeye Conference). “Last season I didn’t start one game and I didn’t play as much, and basketball is my absolute favorite sport,” Ozuk said. “I looked at it like this season there is an opening in the position I play and I have to prove my coach wrong, that he should have played me more last season.” Ozuk said she was “definitely
shocked” when she learned that Gracyk has chosen her to be a full-time captain along with Taylor. She said she’s trying hard to live up to that honor. “I always thought of myself as a leader,” Ozuk said. “Even last season I liked to motivate the girls, but it’s hard to do that when you’re not playing in the Lauren Ozuk games. I decided this year I have to go out there and prove that I should be a captain and I should be one of the hardest workers on the court. I think (Gracyk) realized that.” One of Ozuk’s — and the team’s — worst nightmares came to fruition last Friday night against Elmwood, in a fivepoint loss to the Royals. With three seconds left in the game Ozuk, who has been plagued by knee and foot problems since junior high, suffered another injury in the loss. The prognosis, however, doesn’t appear to be as bad as her past issues. “I was jumping up to get a rebound and another girl got the rebound,” she said. “I went to go for it and our bodies hit each other and I kind of stumbled backwards. When I stepped forward, my knee twisted. I’ve had knee problems in the past, with
my right knee. It resembled a lot of what it felt like with the right knee. When I went down, it was like a panic with the (left) knee.” Ozuk tore her ACL and meniscus during basketball as a seventh-grader. Six months later, in her first practice as an eighth-grader, she tore the ACL again playing soccer. In ninth grade, playing AAU basketball, Ozuk tore the meniscus in her right knee, and she had been playing with a knee brace up through this season. “I hung up my brace this season,” Ozuk said. “I’ve been training with my school trainer (Carisa Russel) doing exercises and I thought, it’s been three years since my ACL tear and I should be comfortable without it. If my parents would have let me, I wouldn’t have worn the brace last year, either.” This latest episode had Ozuk feeling a sense of deja vu, but it appears her left ACL is intact. She went to a specialist for an MRI on Monday. “It scared me more because it was in the knee where I’m not used to hearing cracks and pops coming from,” Ozuk said. “At first it didn’t hurt super bad, but when I tried to put pressure on, that’s when it hurt really bad and the pain came.” Gracyk said Ozuk, whose brother, Noah, tore the ACL in his right knee twice playing football at Lake, will likely miss three to four weeks of the season. “The other night she went up against Samantha Ervin of Elmwood, who is probably six feet tall,” Gracyk said. “Lauren goes
up against taller kids and she just battles and battles. She’s just a tough kid and has a good attitude. She’s physical and just getting better every game. She’s aggressive to the point she was averaging eight free throws a game, getting offensive boards, taking people to the basket. She just plays hard.” Ozuk, the NBC shot-put champion last spring, said it’s her nature to not back down from taller opponents. “I’ll play against any girl I have to,” she said. “Them being taller than me is just a challenge I accept, and it makes me work just as hard.” Sitting out a month, however, will not be easy. Lake’s first game without Ozuk in the lineup was in a win over Maumee. “It’s going to hit me hard, considering I sat out with the other knee (injury),” Ozuk said. “I was looking forward to this whole season coming in. I was crying Friday night because I knew I would have down time. But, I had to look at it as a positive thing and a reason to work even harder and come back even better.” However, Ozuk’s presence was missed in a 50-48 loss to Port Clinton Monday night. Rebekah Swartz and Alexis Hansen scored 11 points apiece and Taylor had seven points, but the Flyers fell behind 24-17 at halftime and could not make up the difference even though Swartz hit three second half goals from behind the arc.

Third straight bowl game caps Clay Rolf’s college career By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Clay Rolf’s five years as a member of the Bowling Green State University football team officially came to an end Dec. 20 in Montgomery, Ala. Rolf, a 2010 graduate of Eastwood High School, was a fifth-year senior for coach Dino Babers’ Falcons, who came back for a thrilling 33-28 win over South Alabama in the inaugural Raycom Media Camellia Bowl. Bowling Green, which finished 8-6, earned its first bowl victory since the 2004 season. The 6-foot-7, 275-pound Rolf, who played tight end and snapped on field goals and extra points, also had the opportunity to return a short kickoff in the bowl win over the Jaguars (6-7), who were playing in the program’s first-ever bowl game. “It was perfect,” Rolf said of ending his college career with a victory. “It was awesome. I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. They treated us so good down there. We were there (five) days. We went down
Wednesday, played Saturday and left on Sunday.” In Rolf’s five years with the BGSU program the Falcons won two Mid-American Conference East titles and played in two MAC championship games and three bowl games. The Falcons lost to San Jose State, 2920, in the Military Clay Rolf Bowl in Washington, D.C., in 2012 and lost to Pitt, 30-27, in the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl in Detroit last year. Rolf said it was “definitely sad” to realize his playing career was over when the scoreboard clock hit triple zeroes in Montgomery, Ala. “My redshirt year we were 2-10 and not very good,” Rolf said. “The last two years we were MAC East champs, playing
in the MAC championship game. I’ve seen the worst of the worst, and we’ve been pretty good the last couple years. It’s pretty cool to see all of the aspects of that. “The senior class I was involved with made a huge impact. I’ve been very blessed to be a part of this senior class, one of the winningest senior classes (31 wins) in school history. I’m gonna miss being around the guys all the time. I’ve played football since I was a young kid, so that’s going to be a little transformation from playing football to not doing anything (athletically).” Babers, who replaced Dave Clawson as BGSU’s head coach in December 2013, praised Rolf’s commitment to the Falcons. “Clay was a great member of our program and great representative of BGSU during his five seasons in our program,” Babers said. “He was always willing to do anything we asked of him as coaches to help the program win, and he was a great example for younger players to follow.” Rolf, 23, who was BG’s snapper the past two years, said his fondest memories will be the times he spent with his teammates. “The relationships built throughout
these years will go on for many years to come - my whole life,” he said. “It’s been pretty neat. I met a lot of good guys I wouldn’t have met otherwise. I’ve made relationships I will take with me the rest of my life.” Rolf said his father, Chip, and grandfather, Paul, who played football at BGSU in 1964-65, attended the Raycom Media Camellia Bowl, where the Falcons scored the winning points on a 78-yard TD pass with 1:04 left in the game. Rolf played on BG’s kick return team this season and returned two kickoffs for 38 yards, including one for 26 yards. As one of the team’s snappers, he played a key role in helping kicker Tyler Tate set a new school record for field goals made in a season, with 22. Rolf finished his five-year career with one reception, a 23-yarder against Morgan State in 2011. “I’ve been blessed to have the opportunity to play football at BG and for our great fans,” Rolf said. “BG has blessed me to become a better person, no doubt about that.” Rolf is scheduled to graduate with a bachelor’s degree in education in the spring of 2016.

At an early age, children usually learn that in order to get along in this world, they have to be flexible. For example, at bedtime a young child may rather stay up and play than go to bed; however, they should be taught that they cannot always have their own way, and that it is necessary for them to get their rest. Adults, as well as children, should be aware that being flexible in our society is necessary to live in harmony with the world around us. Often, being flexible simply means being considerate of others, and when we show this thoughtfulness to others, our

consideration will usually be reflected back to us. However, being stubborn and non-yielding, only to save face when we are wrong, reflects egotism and self pride. Knowledge is acquired through experience; and, understanding and respecting another's point of view will help us to grow as a person. God wants us to live in harmony with those around us, and not always having things our way shows respect for others. Pride only breeds quarrels, but wisdom is found in those who take advice. N.I.V.

Hi, my name is Mr. Thomas Rumbles and I am looking for a forever home. I am a 7 month old cat that was rescued from outside with my many siblings. My fur is soft, fluffy and black except for a white patch on my belly. I am very gentle and cuddly. I am very vocal and affectionate and even come when I am called. I am scared of dogs so a home without any would be best for me! I will make a great family pet! There is a small adoption fee of $20 which pays for my neutering, Deworming, 1 month flea & ear mite treatment and my favorite toys. If interested please contact Stephanie at 419-266-2292.
