Mayors call on Trump
EPA requirements hurting refinery
“

Financial burden The RFS, enacted in 2005 and expand-
“
The Toledo Refinery in Oregon employs 550 people and generates more than $5 billion annually in economic benefits to Northwest Ohio. Local officials are growing increasingly concerned that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) is causing severe economic hardships on the Toledo Oil Refinery in Oregon, as well as other independent oil refineries across the country, They expressed those concerns at a press conference at One Government Center in Toledo on Monday calling on President Trump to fix the program. “A lot of people get their employment through the Toledo Refinery, but for the hundreds of thousands of people who buy gas, the independent market keeps it competitive,” Oregon Mayor Mike Seferian said at the press conference. “So it really reflects on everyone, not just the people who get their employment there, but for people who buy gas. The Toledo Refinery is a real important staple to the city of Oregon, but I really think it’s a big and important thing to literally everyone out there.”
...we could be at risk of losing all of those jobs...

Seferian
ed in 2007, requires refiners to blend corn ethanol into the nation’s gasoline supply in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Toledo Refinery complies by paying about $100 million annually to large oil companies or large gasoline marketers to blend the ethanol because it does not have the resources to do it on its own. Opponents of the RFS say it subsidizes large, multinational oil companies at the expense of independent, local refineries, and will eventually result in higher gas prices for consumers. A refinery in Delaware closed as a result of the heavy financial burden of complying with the RFS. And last year, a Philadelphia refinery blamed the costs of complying with the RFS for layoffs, benefit cuts, and investment delays.
Fix it Toledo Mayor Paula Hicks-Hudson at the press conference called on President Trump to fix the RFS by changing the “points of obligation” for compliance to fuel marketers and blenders. “We call on President Trump and the Environmental Protection Agency to change the points of obligation contained in the renewable fuel standards,” said Hicks-Hudson. “With the stroke of a pen, small refineries can be protected with good jobs. They can be preserved. Consumers can be safeguarded, and national security can be protected, all while maintaining the role that renewables have to play in our country’s fuel supply.” Justin Donley, president of the United Steelworkers Local 912, said 350 of its union members work for the refinery. “If a change is not made to this legislation, we could be at risk of losing all of those jobs - jobs that are today held by our family, friends and neighbors.”
Two months after starting his career with the Walbridge Police Department, Echo is becoming acclimated to his job, says his handler Officer Nick Colwell. The 34-pound German shepherd was 16 weeks old last week and divides his time between training sessions with Colwell in the Medina, Ohio area, riding on patrol, and living with Colwell when off duty.
“

“He’s still a puppy but he’s coming along well. He officially started with us on July 23. He rides with me in the cruiser and is getting used to the sound of the siren and radio,” Colwell said. The training covers locating drugs and narcotics, tracking, biting and obedience. Colwell said he expects the required certification to be completed in February. Then Echo will be allowed to exit the cruiser while on patrol with Colwell. Former chief Walt Tylicki floated the idea of adding a K-9 to the department’s roster, citing the rising drug epidemic in the state as one reason a dog would be an asset to the village. “He asked me if I’d like to do it and I said I would,” Colwell said. “From there we went to Mayor (Ed) Kolanko and village council and they approved.” Echo was donated to the village by a breeder. Fundraisers have been held to defray other costs and a Pet Wants store in Perrysburg has agreed to donate some of his food.

NEXUS gas pipeline gets certification The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency has issued a Water Quality Certification for the NEXUS natural gas pipeline following a review to ensure the project complies with Ohio law and is protective of the environment and public health. NEXUS Gas Transmission LLC is proposing to install 209 miles of new 36-inch diameter mainline pipeline and associated above ground facilities in Ohio before it heads into Michigan and Canada. It starts in Columbiana County in eastern Ohio, then goes northwest across the state into the counties of Stark, Summit, Medina, Lorain, Erie, Huron, Sandusky, Henry, Wayne, Fulton, Wood and Lucas before ending at the Ohio-Michigan state line. It will eventually head into upstate Michigan before it will connect to an existing pipeline in Ontario, Canada. Watersheds Anyone planning to discharge, dredge or use fill material in a way that results in the placement of fill into waters of the state must first obtain a permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which must be
certified with a Water Quality Certification from Ohio EPA. The project will impact the quality of streams and wetlands in the watersheds of the Lower Maumee, OttawaStony, Sandusky, Black-Rocky, Upper Ohio, Tuscarawas, Mahoning, Cedar-Portage, and Huron-Vermilion. For several months, the Ohio EPA considered technical, economic, social and environmental aspects of the $2.1 billion project, held an information session and public hearing on the application, and received and reviewed public input throughout an initial and extended comment period. Opponents at the information session and public hearing on Sept. 22, 2016, expressed concerns about the proposed pipeline’s route, potential impacts to property values, pipeline monitoring and safety, and petroleum industry practices. Water quality Although the project may result in a change from current water quality conditions, the changes cannot violate Ohio’s water quality standards that protect human health and the environment. In addition, the Ohio EPA is requiring NEXUS to have and implement very detailed contingency plans for managing unanticipated releases to the environment, such as inadvertent returns, and a storm

water pollution prevention plan to manage possible storm water related impacts to the environment. DTE Energy and Spectra Energy are partners in the project. The pipeline is being built to meet a growing demand for clean-burning natural gas and to offset the decline in traditional western Canadian supplies, according to NEXUS officials. The pipeline will deliver 1.5 billion cubic feet per day of natural gas from receipt points in eastern Ohio to existing pipeline system interconnects in southeastern Michigan. Specifically, the project will transport emerging Appalachian shale gas supplies directly to consumers in Ohio, Michigan, the Chicago Hub in Illinois and the Dawn Hub in Ontario, Canada. One of several compressor stations will be built in Waterville. A copy of the certification, along with public comments and responses from the information session and public hearing, can be viewed online at epa. ohio.gov/pic/respond.aspx. The Water Quality Certification can be appealed to the Ohio Environmental Review Appeals Commission (ERAC). Appeals must be filed within 30 days of issuing a final action. Anyone considering filing an appeal should contact ERAC at 614-466-8950 for more information.

“
This option is to shut down the interstate for the safety of the victims and my people.
“
Local officials were among those who testified recently in favor of a bill pending in the Ohio House of Representatives that would expand patrol jurisdiction on interstate highways to include police departments in townships with populations of 5,000 or more. Current law restricts officers in townships of less than 50,000 from patrolling on interstate roadways. Locally, Lake and Perrysburg townships, which are crossed by I-280 and I-75 respectively, would be affected by a change in the law. Lake Township police chief Mark Hummer, Bruce Moritz, the township fire chief, and Donald Widmer, a Perrysburg Township police officer, provided proponent testimony to the House Transportation and Public Safety Committee – all urging the committee to support House Bill 255. “We are all aware that Ohio is currently being vastly affected by the worst opioid and drug crisis in anyone’s recollection. This crisis on its own should serve as the sole justification of the ratification of HB 255 as presented,” chief Hummer told the committee. “However, I feel that this is a much more encompassing issue than the drug crisis alone. There are daily issues that need to be addressed by the prohibition of township officers from having full authority on highways passing through their jurisdictions. Distracted driving, impaired driving and reckless driving all contribute to countless crashes on our Ohio interstates
daily. In our situation, we are the first responders both with police and fire apparatus to tend to the injured, manage traffic and hopefully prevent further crashes and mayhem on the interstate.” Chief Moritz told the committee local township officers are routinely on patrol closer to I-280 than troopers of the Ohio State Highway Patrol and Wood County sheriff’s deputies. “This is a very big safety factor for me,” he said. “If my officers are not allowed on the interstate, this leaves me on an accident scene with only one option as my manpower is also limited and I am responsible for the care of the victims. This option is to shut down the interstate for the safety of the victims and my people,” Moritz said. The township’s proximity to Toledo makes it a target for crimes such as burglaries and I-280 is a prime artery for the drug trade, he said. “Our transit population out here is in the thousands with people passing though each day,” Moritz said. Officer Widmer also told the committee I-75 is a known north-south pipeline for drug trafficking, human smuggling and is a highway “heavily traveled by the crim-
inal element.” A resolution approved by the Perrysburg Township trustees in support of the bill was also presented to the committee. Hummer also dismissed an argument that township departments would abuse their patrol authority by strictly enforcing traffic laws or through drug-related forfeiture. “In Ohio, townships receive a very small portion of any traffic ticket issued, with a vast majority of the fine and court costs going to the State of Ohio and respective municipal court,” he said. The Buckeye State Sheriff’s Association is opposed to the bill. The push for expanding township authority on interstates stems from a 2015 decision by the Ohio Supreme Court involving a traffic stop on I-280 by a Lake Township police officer who pulled over a motorist for a lane violation. The driver had a suspended license and an active warrant in Michigan. The officer’s drug-sniffing dog also alerted to oxycodone tablets and marijuana. However, that evidence was suppressed on appeal because the officer lacked the statutory authority to stop the driver. “The effect of this ruling was widespread and courts threw out a multitude of cases across the state, essentially letting a number of OVI and drug traffickers walk free,” Rep. Steve Hambley, the bill’s primary sponsor, said. HB 255 also includes provisions to discourage police departments from using the authority to patrol interstates to form “speed traps,” Hambley said. Also giving proponent testimony were the Ohio Township Association, Medina County Drug Task Force, Ohio Association of Chiefs of Police, the Madison Township Police Department and others.

The Bowling Green Recycling Center has reinstated glass recycling services and is now accepting glass in its drop-off locations, including the 24-hour drop-offs in Bowling Green and Bradner, the weekend-drop-off in North Baltimore and in the satellite trailers. The center is temporarily adding additional capacity in anticipation of higher-than-normal glass volumes. Recyclers are reminded that lids should be removed, containers rinsed and placed in the specially marked bins in the drop-offs and trailers. Glass is not accepted through the commingled curbside recycling programs for reasons of employee safety. Glass collected in Wood County will go to a Dayton-based processor that supplies two plants in Ohio – an Owens-Illinois bottle plant in Zanesville and a Johns Manville insulation plant in Defiance. This is possible thanks to Wood County contributing $30 per-ton and due to the generous support from a few anonymous benefactors who stepped up to cover the remaining costs. Shortly after glass recycling was discontinued on July 11, an ad-hoc group consisting of members from the Recycling Center, Wood County, the City of Bowling Green and OwensIllinois began investigating various alternatives. The group ultimately realized that the old system was both the least complicated and least labor-intensive choice. Rather than reinventing the wheel, the group decided to stick with the original system. An added benefit was a quick restart.

Oregon to consider bid for water system improvements By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com Oregon City Council on Monday will consider a $40,928 contract with Poggemeyer Design Group, of Bowling Green, to provide engineering services during the construction of the Southwest Water Distribution improvements project. The $2.5 million project will provide more water pressure to the southwest quadrant of the city by Woodville Road, Brown Road and Oakdale Avenue. The improvements will involve installation of 10,700 linear feet of 16-inch waterline to connect existing trunk waterlines to increase the pressure of the water system. Based on concerns with their distribution system, including inadequate flows to fire hydrants and inadequate finished water storage, Oregon hired a consultant in 2006 to study the system and suggest improvements. Based on the study, a number of improvements, such as replacing water lines, have already been completed. Low bid Council will also consider approving the $1,448,970 bid of Cash Services, LLC, of Northwood, to provide labor, materials and equipment for the Southwest Water Distribution improvements project. Cash Services provided the lowest and best bid of 12 contractors who submitted bids, according to Public Service Director Paul Roman. The city has worked with the company on previous projects and found their work to be satisfactory. Bids were received and opened on Aug. 1. The project is included in this year’s city budget. The list of contractors, besides Cash Services, LLC, that bid on the project include: •Salenbient Trucking and Excavating, Inc. - $1,461,399.50; •Underground Utilities, Inc. $1,578,678.95;
•Speer Bros. Inc. - $$1,849.672; •Crestline Paving and Excavating Company, Inc. - $1,651,965; •Buckeye Excavating and Construction, Inc. - $1,688,239; •Vernon Nagel, Inc. - $1,707,343; •Edward Kelly & Sons, Inc. $1,724,682; •Helms and Sons Excavating $1,808,548.94; •Hank’s Plumbing and Heating Company - $1,826,479; •E.S. Wagner Company - $1,831,323; •Engineer’s estimate - $2,124,000. Loan The city obtained a low interest loan through the Ohio EPA’s Water Supply Revolving Loan Account (WSRLA) to finance the design and construction of the project, according to Roman. Oregon will borrow approximately $1,855,099 from the WSRLA at the Standard Long Term interest rate (1.88%). During the 20-year loan period, Oregon will save $275,686 by using WSRLA dollars at this rate, compared to the market rate of 3.13%. The project is to be substantially completed by Sept. 1, 2018, following notification by the city for the contractor to proceed with final completion by Sept. 29, 2018.
Owners and employees of Transportation Equipment Sales Corporation, (TESCO) gathered for a groundbreaking ceremony to announce the addition of its used bus sales and service facility located on Navarre Avenue. The facility construction began Aug. 1 and is expected to be completed by spring 2018. The new facility will span 25,000 square feet and will house office space, 16 updated service bays, and a state-of-the-art paint booth.

Ag tax meeting for Lucas County growers planned By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com The second town hall meeting in eastern Lucas County to discuss agricultural districts and the Current Agricultural Use Valuation program is scheduled for Oct. 12 at the City of Oregon administration building, 5330 Seaman Rd. The meeting, hosted by the Lucas County auditor’s office, starts at 6:30 p.m. Changes to the CAUV program were included in the state’s operating budget after growers and farm organizations pushed for relief when their property taxes skyrocketed but grain prices remained flat or dropped. The changes are to be phased in over several years and are intended to link growers’ taxes to their actual farm income as well as offer a break on taxes they’ve incurred on land that isn’t used because of conservation practices. The law requires appraisal methods to reflect and consider standard and modern appraisal techniques that take into consideration the productivity of the soil under normal management practices; typical cropping and land use patterns; the average price patterns of the crops and products produced, and typical production costs to determine the net income potential to be capitalized. In its analysis of the budget, the Legislative Service Commission estimates the changes would reduce tax revenues to schools by an estimated $4 million� in tax year 2017, payable in fiscal 2018, and would reduce revenues to other local governments by a similar amount. Revenue losses would increase to an estimated $6 million to‌.schools and other local governments in tax year 2018, payable in fiscal 2019, and would rise each year until tax year 2022 when they would total an estimated $14 million,� the analysis says. Anita Lopez, county auditor, said the meeting will also provide information about the pros and cons of enrolling land into agricultural districts – a separate program from CAUV. The districts can provide some protection to working farmers from nuisance lawsuits and defer expensive development assessments on the land until it is changed to a non-agricultural use. Reservations for the meeting are not required but can be done by call 419 2134406 or by email at cauv@co.lucas.oh.us. The auditor’s office held a similar meeting last week in Jerusalem Township.
At scholarship outing, branch manager ‘smooches’ the pig At right is Colleen Brindle, branch manager for GenoaBank’s Port Clinton/Catawba branch, smooching the pig at the GenoaBank Annual Scholarship Golf Outing. The live pig sat on hole No. 9 with whoever took closest to the pin winning the pig. At top left, from GenoaBank and title company First American, are golfers Justin Moore, Rich Hillman, Stacy Clark, DeAnn Barker and GenoaBank President and CEO Martin P. Sutter. The outing was held September 8 at the Oak Harbor Golf Club. This annual golf scramble provides scholarships to local students planning to major in business at a two or four-year college or university of their choice. This year the money collected will benefit the following schools: Cardinal Stritch, Clay, Danbury, Genoa, Lake, Maumee, Northwood, Sylvania Northview, Oak Harbor, Perrysburg, Port Clinton, Put-in-Bay, Rossford, Sylvania Southview, Waite and Woodmore. GenoaBank’s Annual Scholarship Golf Outing has provided scholarships to approximately 165 students since the bank began hosting this annual event in 1994. “We believe the lasting impact for these students has not only been personal development but also provides enhanced stability and growth for their family and for the community as well.� quoted Sutter. The scholarships are presented to students selected by their school who have demonstrated academic success, have an interest in pursuing a higher education and seeking a degree in finance or business at a two or four year college. Students at the aforementioned schools should contact their Guidance department to be considered for a GenoaBank Scholarship. (Photos courtesy Staci McDaniel,GenoaBank AVP/marketing manager)

Higher take home pay may not be best reason to move Do you think there’s more “cheese” someplace else? Hungry for a bigger slice? Thinking about moving out of Toledo to chase that “cheese?” Think again. If you live in Toledo, or Northwest Ohio, and you’re thinking about saying hasta la vista on your way to a sunshine state, you might want to reconsider. A new study claims the “cheddar” here is better and more plentiful than in the Carolinas or the west coast. The new study, released last month, is called The Cheddar Counter. Its authors analyzed the discretionary spending a person may expect to have for a specific job in different parts of the country. Discretionary spending is defined as money left over after fedal and state taxes and paying for these life basics — groceries, housing, utilities, transportation, healthcare and other goods and services. Ohio ranked third overall behind Texas and Michigan. Toledo ranked excellent and was runner-up in Ohio to Dayton in the small-city category. Here are the numbers: Average salary, $44,860. From that, subtract taxes, $9,681; Groceries $3,731; Healthcare, $1,139; Housing, $6,433; Misc., $11,535; Transportation, $2695 and Utilities $2,683. That leaves a Toledoan with $6,959 of extra “cheese.” Sound too good to be true? Consider the numbers are for a single person, sharing a two-bedroom apartment with a roommate. Who says Toledo isn’t a good place to live for our best and brightest young people? The survey was commissioned by Trove Technologies, a San Francisco-based moving and storage company. The company hopes to expand the study in the future to take into account different family sizes. Here’s the methodology: Salaries are culled from the Bureau of Labor statistics; tax information from the Tax Foundation

What happened?
To the editor: I ask if recent news stories about Donald Trump seeking to have a D.C. military parade are examples of the fake news that President Trump often speaks about? If so, my “alternative view” of President Trump’s thinking of a military parade is that this is a truly appalling and disrespectful idea. I am greatly disappointed to read of Rear Adm. Charles Williams and Capt. Jeffrey Bennett being fired because of the Navy’s 7th Fleet Vice Admiral Phil Sawyer has a “loss of confidence in their ability to command.” Williams and Bennett were fired by Vice Adm. Sawyer, I gather, for the collisions that killed 17 sailors who served on the USS Fitzgerald and the USS John McCain since June. Yet, for those of us who care, we have yet to learn of the reason these brave young sailors are dead. Meanwhile, every shipboard sailor in the 7th Fleet is going to suffer from post-traumatic stress syndrome from worrying about being killed or injured
due to a collision in their sleeping berths. As a Navy veteran, I say we thank these young deceased sailors for their service by finding out how they were killed. This is not an “alternative view” or “fake news” but a reality for those serving in our country’s Navy. President Trump needs to respect our military personnel – not plan parades.

moves will occur in the same geographical area. However, a few will be precipitated by the lust of a higher paying job. That lust can blind the job seeker from taking into account the cost of living. The level of discretionary income varies from job to job. For example, Toledo ranked first in the nation in the category of “material moving workers and all others” with $10,595. That compared to runner ups Houston at $7,627 and Seattle $5,760. Toledo also ranked high in these professions: legal; farming; fishing; construction and installation; and maintenance and repair. If you work in one of these fields, you will, as the saying goes, Do Better in Toledo. If you’re a medical lab tech you will do best in Vero Beach, Florida keeping $13,181 in your pockets after basic expenses. An auto body repairer will keep $17,057 in Naples, Florida and a geography teacher $42,438 in Columbus, Ohio. That one is hard to believe but The Ohio State University is located there as well as a number of smaller private colleges. If you are in retail sales, you will not do good in Toledo or anywhere else for that matter. The best place is Sherman, Texas, where you will spend $19 more than your basic expenses to live. The next best is in Cleveland, Tennessee at minus $1,539. Still have itchy feet? Want to see if your cheese is sharp or moldy?

Waite High School alumni celebrate the golden years Katie Siebenaller Press Staff Writer katiesieb@presspublications.com

During his time at Waite High School, Osborn was a member of the engineering club and honor society. “I only took two exams my entire four years there – two English exams,” Osborn said. When he was a student at Waite, he had explained, those who earned a B letter grade or higher were exempt from taking that class’ exam. Since then, Osborn dedicated 50 years to the tool and die industry, having worked for several area companies until his retirement at age 72. He and his wife,
“
...we were afraid no one was going to show up, but they made it.
“
The area’s largest annual high school party took place Tuesday, Sept. 12 at St. George’s Banquet Hall. A total of about 335 Morrison R. Waite High School’s alumni, family and friends were present at the 17th Golden Years Luncheon. The idea of a combined luncheon for those celebrating their high school reunion of 50 years or more was proposed by Class of 1949 alumnus Robert “Bob” Yenrick in 2000, after his graduating class celebrated its 50th reunion. As a result, the first annual Golden Years Luncheon was held in Maumee on Sept. 12, 2001. “9/11 was the day before – we were afraid no one was going to show up, but they made it,” Robert’s wife, Jane said. Due to the number of flights cancelled after that fateful day, a larger number of alumni were in town to attend. Jane Yenrick, then Palmer, is also a member of Waite High School’s class of 1949. She and her husband initially met in grade school and got to know each other better their sophomore year at Waite. They have been married for 67 years and have five children. Robert Yenrick co-chaired the event with fellow classmate, Judy Lane Bee, until three years ago. Bee took over the luncheon and chaired it until last year, when she turned over her leadership role to the Waite Alumni Association. The association has since created a committee that continues to put together the event. This year’s chairman was Thelma Stockmaster Scarborough. Celebrating his 78th year as a Waite alumnus was class of 1939 graduate Stanley Osborn. Osborn was the sole member of his class in attendance, and also the eldest alum to attend. He still recalls having to race from his locker on the first floor to a classroom at the farthest end of the second floor of the school building. “I could move
a graduate of Clay High School, have two children, John Osborn and Judy Bosak, who accompanied Osborn at the luncheon. David “Dave” Roberts was one of 12 class of 1967 alumni present, representing the youngest graduates. Roberts escorted his mother, Jean Roberts (class of 1944), and her friend, Ila Wandtke (class of 1943). Celebrating their 50th class reunion, this was Roberts’ and his fellow classmates’ first Golden Years Luncheon. “How many schools can say they can get graduates from 50-plus years together?” Roberts said. “It really speaks of the loyalty these alumni have.”

Inspirational Message of the Week: What’s Your Story? You often hear it said that only you can define what success means to you. While this is certainly true, it doesn’t go far enough. That is, the story of our life is something that only we can properly tell. We certainly rely on others to help us with the details, but it’s up to us to create the guiding narrative of our own life story. And don’t we all want there to be a story worth telling when it comes to our own life? While we are alive the story is necessarily unfinished, but as we get older we begin to see certain themes coming together. Whatever your life story is
Genoa
about, make sure that the way you live makes you a hero and not a villain. And like any good story, the parts that tell us the most are the trials and the struggles we go through. It’s easy to be calm, cool and collected when everything is going smoothly. The real question is whether you can maintain your composure, and your values, when things start to fall apart? Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him. James 1:12

Two alumni to be inducted into Clay Hall of Fame Kathleen A. McGrady and Dr. Thomas Keller will be inducted into the Clay High School Hall of Fame at a banquet on Saturday, Sept. 30 at St. Michael’s Centre, 4001 Navarre Ave., Oregon. The event is presented by Clay High School Alumni and Friends. After graduating from Clay High School in 1976, McGrady earned a degree from Bowling Green State University, and a master’s degree in Music Education from Vandercook College of Music. She recently retired after a 34-year career in education, which included 17 years at Northwood Local Schools, where she was honored as “Teacher of the Year” in 1996. She subsequently served as director of bands at Springfield Local Schools in Holland from 1999-2015. An avid participant in Ohio Music Education Association competitions, her high school and middle school bands consistently earned superior ratings at district and state adjudicated events. She has served OMEA in numerous capacities, including District President, District Secretary Treasurer, State Secretary, Co-Chair of Performances for 2007 State Conference, Band Chair for the 2012 State Conference, and the All-State Ensemble Coordinator for the 2016 OMEA State Conference.

Dr. Thomas Keller
the United States selected to be on staff for the All-American Marching Band performing at the new Euro Disney Park in Paris, France. McGrady was recognized with the “Outstanding State Chair Award” by the American School Band Directors Association and was selected as the 2015 Buckeye Cable Sports Network “Teacher of the Year,” resulting in the “Kathy McGrady Fine Arts Scholarship” and the “Kathleen McGrady Legacy Scholarship,” both given annually to a deserving senior from Springfield High School. She was also the recipient of the OMEA Outstanding Music Educator of the year for 2015. In addition to being on staff at the
College of Wooster Music Camp, she maintains an active schedule throughout the year as guest conductor and clinician. She is also a staff conductor and scholarship representative with the Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp in Twin Lake, Michigan and the Ohio Ambassadors of Music which will be traveling this summer through seven countries for their 2017 European Tour.

Dr. Keller graduated from Clay High School in 1968. He was the junior and senior class president and made all-conference teams in football and baseball. Upon graduation, he went on to obtain his specialist, master’s and doctorate degrees in education from the University of Toledo. Dr. Keller taught for 25 years at Arizona State University in the W.P. Carey School of Business, where he specialized in strategic management, leadership and entrepreneurship. He was the recipient of the Outstanding Teacher of the Year Award and was often listed in the senior surveys as one of the most influential professors at ASU. He retired from the university in 2005. In addition, Dr. Keller has been an active entrepreneur. His consulting firm provided strategic planning and leadership training to some of the nation’s largest corporations and public organizations. After retiring from teaching and selling his consulting firm, he has devoted most of his free time to volunteer work with the Oregon City Schools where he: • Assisted the district with the development of its strategic plan; • Started the Keller Family Scholarship for Clay students considering careers in education; • Launched the Course Relevance Program, which brings in individuals with expertise to assist teachers in the delivery of selected portions of their curriculum; • Started the Keller Family Employee Recognition Program honoring outstanding teachers, administrators and, staff.

By Tammy Walro Press Features Editor twalro@presspublications.com Virginia Todd has many successes under her belt. She’s a three-time University of Toledo graduate, a retired Oregon Police officer, a private-practice attorney and works parttime as a death investigator for the Lucas County Coroner’s Office – and she’s a proud grandmother, too. Yet, there was something on her bucket list – something “left undone� – until recently. On Aug. 31, Todd realized her dream of marching with the UT Rocket Marching Band as she took the field at the team’s home opener against Elon. Todd, 59, plays the clarinet and always wanted to march with the band when she was a student at UT, but there was never time during her undergraduate or graduate studies. She holds degrees in criminal justice, which she received in 1980; a degree in public administration she earned in 1992 and a degree in law she received in 1996. “The first time I was working to pay my way and the second couple of times I found myself back in school I was raising a family and working for the police department,� she said. “I just never had the time. “My husband and I are season-ticket holders and we’d be sitting in our seats, and when I’d see that band, it just brought back the longing.� she said.

Marching with band fulfills dream
Three-time University of Toledo graduate Virginia Todd enrolled as a freshman just to participate in band camp and march with the UT Rocket Marching Band just once – something she’d always wanted to do. (Submitted photo)
“I’d say to him, ‘One day, I’m going to do that.� In order to be eligible to march with the band, she had to register as an incoming freshman, sign up for the marching band class, and attend the nine-day, 12-hour-aday band camp in late summer. “I marched in high school at Whitmer, and it brought back a lot of memories,� she said. “The band members didn’t know what to make of me at first, but they were very nice – very helpful,� she said. “The band kind of becomes a family. “The whole thing was a lot of fun.� she said, adding that her college marching experience was “one-and-done.�

Wlodarz contributes to No. 2 nationally ranked Owens team By Nicholas Huenefeld Owens Sports Information nicholas_huenefeld@owens.edu The Owens Community College women’s volleyball team, behind its perfect start to the season, has vaulted to No. 2 in the nation following the release of the latest National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Division II poll. Contributing is 5-foot-2 defensive specialist Cassidy Wlodarz (Cardinal Stritch), who already has 11 service aces, 81 digs, two kills and an assist in her first season of college volleyball. Last week, Michaela Eisenhauer (Margaretta) had a team-high nine kills while hitting .529 as the No. 2 Owens Community College women’s volleyball team smothered Cuyahoga Community College 25-8, 25-9, 25-14. Niki Polce (New Boston Huron, Mich.) led the Owens defense with 15 digs. It was her eighth match with year with at least 10 digs. Wlodarz contributed with five digs. Then, Owens remained unscathed in the league this year with a 25-12, 2515, 25-19 win over Edison Community College on the road. With the victory, Owens is now 16-0 overall and 6-0 in Ohio Community College Athletic Conference play. Owens, which hasn’t lost a set yet in the league this year, survived a battle from Edison, who is coached by former Owens volleyball studentathlete Julia Haupricht. The Chargers, down two late, called a timeout and then forced a tie at 19 in the final set. Owens, however, reeled off the match’s final six points. Polce finished with a team-high 16 digs while Wlodarz chipped in a season-high 14 of her own In addition to that, Lewis is now just one win shy of 600 in his Owens career. He is 599-189 overall and 18214 in OCCAC play. He has nine seasons with a perfect conference record. At Stritch, Wlodarz, was named first team All-Toledo Area Athletic Conference, TAAC Player of the Year and first team all-district as a senior. In 2016, Wlodarz was instrumental in leading Stritch to the TAAC championship, which was the first for the program in seven years. Wlodarz was named second team All-TAAC during her first three seasons at Stritch, where she was a fouryear varsity player. She was also a twotime honorable mention all-district selection. Academically, Wlodarz was an honor roll student throughout her high school career and is a member of the National Honor Society.

Genoa golfers claim Northern Buckeye trophy By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Four of Genoa’s top six boys’ golfers were sophomores this season, which gave Gabe Scott some pause heading into his senior season. “Ethan Smith was with us some of the time last year,” Scott said. “If our top three weren’t going to play well, I didn’t know if (the sophomores) were going to be able to hold us together. They proved me wrong. They definitely stepped up when they needed to.” Smith, a sophomore and the Comets’ No. 1 player, helped coach Mike DeStazio’s squad win its first conference championship in eight years. Genoa won all four Northern Buckeye Conference shootouts and put an exclamation mark on the regular season by winning the NBC tournament on Sept. 19 at Green Hills in Clyde. Genoa’s last league title came in 2009, when the school was a member of the Suburban Lakes League. “Coming in, I really felt it was our league to lose and our league to win,” DeStazio said. “I felt we had enough talent that we should be good enough to win the league. I don’t want to sound arrogant, but I really felt we had the best team in the league, one through six. We had the best team in the league because of our depth.” The Comets went unbeaten in the shootout events, which were held at Lakeland, Tanglewood, Birch Run, and Chippewa golf courses. Genoa senior Austin Marley was the medalist at Lakeland and Birch Run, and he tied Smith for medalist honors at Chippewa. Smith and Scott tied for second place individually at the NBC tournament. “Coming into my senior year, I at least wanted to win the league,” Scott said. “Now that that’s done, I definitely want to get to the district. As a team, we played really well. Not all of us had bad rounds at the same time. We would pick each other up. The young guys did a pretty good job.” The Comets shot 337 to beat Eastwood by eight strokes at the 18-hole NBC tournament. Genoa earned 48 points to win the overall team championship, followed by Eastwood (40), Woodmore (35), Lake (33), Elmwood (24), Otsego (18), Rossford (11) and Fostoria (6). The All-NBC first team includes Smith, Marley, Scott and Genoa sophomore Issac Simmons, along with Mitchell Miller of Woodmore. Miller shot a 78 at the NBC tournament to earn medalist honors. Smith and Scott both shot 82 at the conference tourney, while Marley shot 84 and sophomore Brock Pollauf shot 89 for the Comets. Pollauf earned second-team all-conference honors with Grant Hirzel, Noah Hahn and Riley Welker of Eastwood, Justin Luoma of Lake and Dan Greenhill of Woodmore. Honorable mention honors went to Woodmore’s Ian Cook, Eastwood’s Robbie Bettinger and the Lake duo of Nate Sampsell
Northern Buckeye Conference Player of the Year Ethan Smith. (Photo courtesy Innovations Portrait Studio/ InnovationsVisualImpact. com) and Zack Hornyak. Genoa placed fourth in the NBC last season and lost three of its top six players to graduation. All four sophomores who played on the varsity this season played on the junior varsity team a year ago. This team’s two seniors, Marley and Scott, are both four-year varsity starters. “They were freshmen when I started in this program and I had them playing varsity because their scores were as good as my seniors,” DeStazio said. “They’ve been with me the whole ride and they are two special young men. When they started as freshmen, we couldn’t break 400 (team score) for 18 holes. We have turned the corner.” Marley has the team’s lowest individual average for nine holes (39.2) this season. Scott, a left-hander, is second at 41.2 followed by Smith (41.7), Pollauf (43.0), Simmons (44.0) and sophomore Brady Linker (48.0). Scott said winning the NBC champi-
onship was special, especially for the two seniors. “It means a lot to Austin and me,” Scott said. “We’ve been through a lot with Coach (DeStazio) since our freshman year. He believed in us and never gave up on us. Austin and I talked about it, that we were going to win this one for Coach. We deserved it, but Coach played a big role in our golf all four years. It’s been a lot of hard work going into it, from all of our varsity guys.” The Comets will compete in the Division II sectional tournament on Sept. 28 at Detwiler. “It’s one of the harder sectionals in Division II,” DeStazio said. “The top three get out (to districts) and we have Archbold and Central Catholic as probably the two favorites. That leaves one spot. We can get out, but we have to play awfully well. The seniors’ goal was to win the league and sectional, and we’ve accomplished one of those.”

Lake volleyball
Program’s culture, confidence and future looking better By Nicholas Huenefeld Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Lake’s volleyball program continues to rise with head coach Amy Vorst in her third year in charge. In Vorst’s first season, Lake finished just 5-18 overall. The win total increased by three last year, and now the team is 9-3 overall and 5-2 in the NBC this year. A winning season would be the first for the program since 2010 when the Flyers finished 14-10. “The mentality, 100 percent,” Vorst said of the biggest difference between her first year and this season. “The girls are buying into our culture. They see volleyball as a priority. They’ve worked hard in the offseason, and I know it sounds corny, but their chemistry has been incredibly different than the past two years. The girls work for each other.” Junior setter Gracie Delventhal has been a big part of the team’s success. She has 331 assists this year while also averaging nine digs per match. She is the team’s lone setter this year after the graduation of Sydnee Behlmer. “The transition has gone very well,” Vorst said. “Gracie worked very hard in the offseason. She had a great club season. I can’t compliment her enough. She makes fantastic decisions and runs the offense very well.” Kayla Bekier, a 5-10 senior outside hit-

ter, is averaging nearly 14 kills per match. She had a season-high 19 kills against Gibsonburg and Rossford. Vorst considers her the team’s No. 1 hitter. “Kayla is playing very intelligent,” Vorst said. “She’s playing all the way around, and she didn’t do that last year. She’s really matured as a player.” Vorst said the team has two middle hitters who can throw up a decent block in Taylor Momany and Lexi Robinson. Momany has 12 solo blocks, and the duo combines to average between 12-13 kills per match. Along with Bekier, the trio gives the team options, which Vorst said the team hasn’t had in the past. Defensively, senior libero Megan Kelly averages nearly 12 digs per match. “Our goal is to finish in the top three of the league,” Vorst said. “That hasn’t happened in quite a few years. We’d like to be top two, which is not out of reach at this point. We just have to focus and play good volleyball.” So far, the team’s lone two NBC losses have been to Eastwood, the fifth ranked team in the state, and Fostoria. Vorst said the high point of the season so far was the win over Otsego, who defeated Lake in five sets twice last year and hadn’t lost to the Flyers since 2010. “We are looking to play better against those teams the second time around,” Vorst said. “We want to finish strong and do well in our tournament. We’re not writing that off.”

Rangers, Golden Bears — this final time has meaning By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com When Gibsonburg joined the Toledo Area Athletic, they were hoping to reach this point. Now that the Golden Bears are there, they are leaving. For the past three straight seasons, the Golden Bears have won 27 games overall and been among the best teams in the conference, making the playoffs twice and winning the league title once. But as soon as it’s reached the summit, Gibsonburg will be leaving the TAAC after this season for the Sandusky Bay Conference River Division, making this meeting with Northwood the last one for the foreseeable future — at least in league play. Following the 2017-18 school year, Gibsonburg and Danbury will join the SBC, leaving the TAAC with eight football teams — Cardinal Stritch, Northwood, Ottawa Hills, Toledo Christian, Edon, Hilltop, Montpelier, and Stryker. The last four are members of the Buckeye Border Conference in all other sports. Stryker is in its final year of junior varsity football this year and will put a varsity team on the field in 2018. The Golden Bears, who are 4-0 this year, have won the last two meetings after the Rangers (2-2) took the first four during Gibsonburg’s early years in the conference. “They were a great addition to the conference. They’ve been good at other sports like basketball and baseball. Their fans travel well, too,” said Northwood coach Ken James. “Dating back to our time in the SLL (Suburban Lakes League), we’ve played about 20 times, and we’re pretty even. We had stretches where we did well against them and they’ve gotten us the last few years. I think that makes it more exciting for the fans. We hate to see them go. They’ve been a good addition to the league.” It’s not that Gibsonburg has anything against the TAAC. It’s just that the opportunity to play in a league like the SBC with schools located in closer proximity was too good to pass up, school officials say. They expect travel to decrease and gates to increase. “Our school and our community — we appreciate everything the TAAC has brought to us. We needed a home and the TAAC was there for us and we appreciate that,” said Gibsonburg coach Steve Reser. “Over these seven years, the coaches have been great to me. Coach James has been outstanding. He was very helpful to me when I was taking over at Gibsonburg and he was giving me pointers. I’ve coached against Coach (Bryan) Dudash (now at Cardinal Stritch) and with him. We have a great relationship with the TAAC. It’s a bittersweet ending.” It’s an important game for both teams, and not just because it’s their last meeting as league opponents. The Rangers can’t afford to lose many more games if they want to make the playoffs, and the Golden Bears, currently ranked fourth in the Division VI, Region 22 standings with 5.2 points, would like to stay on track as they enter the heart of the league schedule. Save for an 18-17 victory over rival Lakota, Gibsonburg has been dominant, defeating Elmwood (41-0), a game that saw its defense force six turnovers, Fremont St. Joseph (33-2) and Toledo Christian (660). The win over the Eagles saw Addison Weaver run for two touchdowns and throw

for two more, one to Jesse Arriaga and the other to Brady Jaso while Bradley Mendoza (three) and Theo Hernandez (two) ran for a combined five touchdowns. However, Reser says Northwood presents new challenges. “I don’t think we can go into games planning to be dominant. We go in with a tough mindset and the young men prepare very well. We just look to get better every week,” said Reser. “Win or lose, what we’ve accomplished is behind us.” James believes it will be a challenge for his squad to defend a team with a plethora of playmakers. “Offensively, they have a lot of weapons and spread the ball around. They’ll throw it to three or four different guys and they have some really good running backs. They’ve got some good skill kids,” said James. “Defensively, you’ve got to be ready to defend a lot of things. They’ve got good speed and you have to defend the flat. You’ve got to keep guys in the box to defend the run.” Northwood opened TAAC play by defeating Edon, 41-28, last week behind Anthony Williams, who rushed for 241 yards on 25 carries to go with two touchdowns. His backfield mates Dalton Dempsey, Jimmy Jablonski and Lamar Daniels also scored touchdowns as the Rangers ran for 459 yards as a team. Plus, in non-league play, the Rangers took on three Northern Buckeye Conference schools, Rossford, Lake, and Woodmore, and in doing so, were facing off with larger schools. Reser says he is well aware of

Coach James is a great coach and a great mentor — he’s going to have his kids ready for our battle. They understand the scheme. They’ll present a great challenge for us,” said Reser. “We have to hope that we can bend and not break on defense. We have to hope that we can score enough points.”
Last year, the Golden Bears won the matchup, 34-21, behind 113 rushing yards from Madison Jaso and two touchdown runs by Alex Richards. Northwood, meanwhile, got three touchdowns from quarterback Tim Romstadt, two on the ground and the other on a 56-yard pass to Trevor Mack. Romstadt carried the ball 25 times for 160 yards, but he is injured and will likely not play in this year’s matchup.

No matter who’s running, ‘The Herd’ gets job done By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com If they haven’t done so already, Eastwood running backs Ian Downard, Jaden Rayford, Justin Pickerel and Cooper Comes need to invite the big guys who block for them out to a movie or something. The Eagles returned all five starters on the offensive line from last season, and it shows. Eastwood, the top-ranked Division V team in Ohio, took a 4-0 record into Friday night’s Northern Buckeye Conference game against visiting Rossford. First-year coach Craig Rutherford’s wing-T offense has thus far generated 1,271 rushing yards - an average of 317.8 per game – and averaged 33.5 points per game in wins over Ottawa-Glandorf, Bowling Green, Maumee and Elmwood. The five linemen, who are affectionately called The Herd, also have a combined 3.9 grade-point average. “With so much experience and being as smart as they are, they remembered a lot since last year,” Rutherford said. “As the season has gone on, they continue to play faster and continue to play physical. They really take pride in knowing what to do and knowing their responsibilities. They work really well together and they communicate really well.” Left tackle Dalton Andrews, a 6-foot-3, 247-pound senior, is a three-year starter on the offensive and defense lines. He is also an above-average shot-putter on the track team, placing ninth in the state at last year’s Division III meet. “He’s really athletic for an offensive lineman,” Rutherford said. “He’s really strong and he’s got a lot of experience to know what the defense is doing.” Andrews plans to study engineering in college, and he also wants to be a thrower or play football at the next level. He said one thing that stands out with the Eagles’ linemen is their work ethic. That applies to the starters and the backups. “We are all extremely hard workers and we pick each other up,” Andrews said. “We block hard for our backs. Even though we don’t get all the glory and we are anonymous linemen, we all work hard and we’re
‘The Herd’ — Eastwood's offensive line — Tyler Haas (6), Addison Clark (56), Seth Welch (58), Erik Fertig (65), Hunter Slattman (61), Dalton Andrews (63) and Zack Henline (81). (Press photo by Lee Welch/ FamilyPhotoGroup. com) very strong and athletic. We’re very passionate about the sport and that keeps us going.” Senior right tackle Addison Clark (61, 291) is the largest lineman on the squad. He is a two-year starter and “probably the most vocal guy on the line,” according to Rutherford. Clark played left tackle last season but switched positions with Andrews this season. “Addison just loves the game of football,” Rutherford said. “He made huge improvement from his sophomore year to his junior year, and he has really stepped up as kind of a vocal leader of our offensive line. He’s a big guy who can really move people.” Center Erik Fertig (6-0, 212) also started last season and Rutherford said he likes the junior’s athleticism and toughness. Fertig also throws the shot and discus for the track team. “He’s pretty athletic for a center, which helps us out on a lot of plays,” Rutherford said. “He can do some things that most centers we’ve had can’t do. He has fought
through some injuries and been pretty impressive.” The Eagles’ other two starters on the line are senior guards Hunter Slattman (6-1, 205) and Seth Welch (5-11, 202). Slattman, who played in several games last season and started one game, can fill in at any position on the line, Rutherford said. “He’s not the biggest or the fastest, he just knows what he’s doing,” the coach said. “It’s been really fun seeing him have as much success as he’s had here. He’s a guy who waited his turn for his senior year and he’s playing really good football for us.” Rutherford added that Welch, who isn’t known for his size, is “one of the best pulling guards we’ve ever had.” Welch started the final few games last year after a starter went down with an injury. “Seth stepped up big the last half of the season,” Rutherford said. “He just continues to get better. He loves to hit people and you can see that in the way he pulls.” With the offensive line paving the
way, Eastwood sits in the No. 1 spot in the Associate Press poll for the first time in school history. The Eagles were ranked as high as fourth in D-IV in the 2011 state poll. “We talked about (the ranking),” Andrews said. “It’s kind of a neat feeling being No. 1 in the state, because no team before us did that. We tried to put that behind us. In the end, rankings don’t matter and it’s what happens on the field that counts. We have to work like that and put that (ranking) behind us and keep striving to be better.” As the number of games dwindle on the Eastwood seniors’ final year of high school, Andrews said it is their mission to maintain a high standard for the underclassmen. “It seems like it’s flying by,” Andrews said. “We’re just trying to play for each other, practice after practice and game by game, and play well. As a senior, it’s almost your job to leave a very good program for the kids behind you. Whether you are a (senior) starter or a backup, you want to leave that stuff, that passion, behind you.”

On pitch or gridiron, Cluckey key component for both
“
By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com
I was thinking how cool it would be to win the game for my team. It actually happened, which was pretty crazy.
The University of Toledo installed a new FieldTurf surface, called Revolution 360, to its 80-year-old Glass Bowl stadium last year. Revolution 360 is considered the latest in cutting-edge playing surface technology, and Clay senior kicker Thomas Cluckey is a big fan. “I’ve kicked there before,” he said. “I went to a UT kicking camp this summer. The thing that was difficult with a field goal there is the (college goal posts) are about six feet narrower than high school. Kicking on turf is a lot easier, just because you don’t have to deal with the little holes in the grass and it’s a little easier for the holder to get the ball down.” Last Friday, Cluckey’s 18-yard field goal in overtime gave the Eagles a 13-10 Three Rivers Athletic Conference victory over St. Francis de Sales, which plays home games at the Glass Bowl. Cluckey, a four-year starting goalie on Clay’s soccer team (he was a second-team All-TRAC selection last season), also booted a career-best 36-yard field goal in the fourth quarter to force overtime. The Eagles (3-1), who beat the Knights for the second straight year, trailed 10-0 at halftime. “It was awesome,” coach John Galyas said of the win. “I was so happy for our kids. We battled back that second half and played a really good half. We tell our kids, when you play hard all the time, good things are going to happen. When you win those games, it feels great. We’re learning how to win, which is a big deal.” Cluckey has been the Eagles’ punter and kickoff specialist all season. Sophomore Ruger Wamer, who also plays soccer, handled the team’s PAT attempts prior to last week. Cluckey entered the St. Francis game having made one of his two field-goal attempts. He made a short kick against Waite and had a kick blocked against Rogers in the season opener. “He’s got a big leg,” Galyas said. “I don’t have a problem running him out there, really, from 50 yards in. He’s got a

huge leg. He hits from 50-plus in practice.” Indeed, Cluckey said he’s “pretty comfortable” kicking field goals from 50-55 yards with the wind at his back. During warmups against St. Francis, however, he said he shanked several attempts from around 45 yards.
“I made a few of them,” he said, “but I hit a few of them to the left.” Nevertheless, Cluckey never imagined he would become the hero later that night. He admitted that he envisioned making a game-winning kick all summer. This is his first season with the football team.

“I was thinking how cool it would be to win the game for my team,” Cluckey said. “It actually happened, which was pretty crazy. It took me a minute to take it all in.” St. Francis got the ball first in OT and had a chance to take a 13-10 lead, but its kicker missed a 36-yard attempt. Clay got its chance on offense and nearly reached the end zone, but its ball carrier was stopped just short on third down. Galyas had a decision to make: go for it on fourth down or send in Cluckey. “We were on the six-inch line,” Galyas said. “I thought we scored on the play before, but they marked it short. Honestly, in that situation knowing we were tied, we were in the driver’s seat. I had no thought of going for it. I knew Thomas could do it. If we had been down 13-10, then I would have gone for the win.” The Eagles’ kicking unit lined up, including senior long-snapper Devin Lunsford and the holder, junior quarterback Reese Wamer. St. Francis did not try to ice Cluckey by calling time out. Lunsford’s snap was good and Wamer’s hold was steady. Cluckey said he kicked the ball on the laces, but it didn’t matter. “I saw it go through and I turned and ran to the sideline,” Cluckey said. “My team was running out and they pretty much dog-piled on top of me. It was crazy. I was glad I had my mouth guard in.”

Flyers unbeaten, but have plenty to prove By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com
Peyton Bloomer
Bloomer reaches 1,000 In her junior season, Oak Harbor volleyball player Peyton Bloomer reached 1,000 career kills in the Rockets’ sweep over Edison Tuesday. Bloomer is the first person in Oak Harbor volleyball history to reach this milestone. Oak Harbor volleyball beat Edison 2510, 25-6, 25-6 to stay perfect on the year. Kaytlynn Sandwisch led the team with 35 assists. Leading in kills was Bloomer with 23 and Logan Harris with 11. Abby Dornbusch led with 16 digs and Ashley Riley had 12 digs. Bloomer added four blocks. Jill Thorbahn was 16-for-16 serving and had 15 points. The Rockets are 15-0 overall (6-0, SBC) and play at Huron next Tuesday.
Despite a 9-0-2 start, outscoring their first 11 opponents by a 48-7 margin and posting six shutouts, the Division II state soccer coaches don’t have Lake’s girls soccer team ranked as one of the top 11 teams in this week’s state poll. The Flyers are in the “receiving votes” category. “We’re winning, but there is still a lot of work to do,” coach Don Jablonski said. “We still have a lot of room for improvement. The way we’re playing right now, our defense has to step it up and help us in the big games. Offense, we will get there. We’re very fast and capable of scoring a lot of goals. They just have to be a little bit more patient.” Fourteen girls have scored at least one goal for Lake this season. The Flyers’ lone “blemishes” are a 0-0 tie at defending Northern Buckeye Conference champion Woodmore on Sept. 12 and a 1-1 tie with Eastwood (6-3-1 overall) on Tuesday. Lake is 4-0-2 in the NBC. The Eagles feature 10 seniors – all of whom lettered last season - including nine senior starters. “This senior group has been with me for four years, so they know what I want,” Jablonski said. “We have great speed this year; we have six kids who can fly and they want to score in a hurry. As soon as they get a chance, they look to get the ball long.” Five seniors play the defender – or, as Jablonski calls it, the “back” positions - for the Flyers. Sophie Jackson, Olivia Matlack and Kennedy Walsh are the starters, while Jen Pondiley and Megan Szymanski also see action in the back. Jackson plays center back and has one goal this season. She also takes the Flyers’ corner kicks and has five assists, including four on corner kicks. “Sophie has started the last two years and she’s very fast,” Jablonski said. “Sophomore year she had some back issues, so she didn’t play a lot. She really anchors the back because of her pace. Not too many girls are going to outrun her. Her foot skills have gotten better the last two years. Once she wins a ball, she can usually get
Lake senior midfielder/forward Maddy Hodgson (9) passes to senior midfielder Callie Palka. (Photo courtesy Inter-State Studios/Inter-state.com) out of trouble.” Matlack, who is also a returning starter, plays outside back and has one goal and one assist. “I say ‘backs’ because of our structure,” Jablonski said. “Once we win a ball, we look to go forward, so (the Lake player) is not a defender. She’s just a person who is in back and going forward. Olivia has come a long way. Her foot skills have gotten a lot better and she likes to attack.” Jablonski called Walsh a “defendingtype outside back” who moves to the forward position on occasion, “but not as much as Olivia.” “When the balls are in the air, Kennedy
will usually get them and bring them down and look to distribute,” Jablonski said. “She’ll look for our midfielders and get the ball to them. She likes to play the ball short to our central midfielders, who look to play the ball to our forwards.” Pondiley and Szymanski split time at the center back position. “Jen and Megan are about equal in playing skills,” Jablonski said. “I give the edge to Jen on having a more physical game, because Jen is a little bit stronger and not afraid of mixing it up with people. Hayley St. John (15), a freshman, and sophomore Colette Askins (10) have combined for 25 saves in goal this season.

Happy 60th Birthday It’s a 90th Birthday Party for Don Lajti Rev. Harold Black Genoa center midfielder Dominic Tyler (18) navigates his way through defensive traffic. (Photo courtesy Innovations Portrait Studio/InnovationsVisualImpact.com)
For Dom Tyler, actions replace words on the pitch By Jeffrey D. Norwalk Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Talking to Genoa’s 5-foot-9, 145 pound standout Comet center midfielder Dominic Tyler can seem almost as difficult as sneaking a kick past U.S. Men’s National Team goalkeeper Tim Howard. “Dom is shy, but once you get to know him, he definitely starts to open up,” offers junior forward Logan Bihn. “I would definitely agree with that statement,” chimes in junior midfielder Jacob Stewart, “and, if I were to try to describe Dom to someone who doesn’t know him, or has never seen him play before, I would tell them that he’s a guy who tries to do his best in every situation he’s put into. Dom’s a kid who will work hard, and show he’s capable of overcoming any obstacle, until he’s accomplished what he’s striving for. Dom is definitely more of an action type of guy. His hard work speaks louder than his words.” Not everyone believes that Tyler is as shy as some people say. “Dom shy?” poses Comets’ third-year coach Tim Memmer. “I never would’ve thought that. Now, he is not one who’s going to be barking instructions out on the field, so I’d agree his play does the talking for him. But, Dom is just a great instinctual player both offensively and defensively, and also a very versatile player. He’s able to play every position on the field.” The 16-year-old Tyler, a returning letter winner, responds, “I do try to say stuff, and to talk every now and then out there, to try to be a leader. But, I would definitely say I lead more with my actions out on the pitch than I do with words. I mean, I just love to play the game. I love all the running soccer entails. I love the defensive aspect of it, and I love to hit people. I love taking the ball away. And, I definitely love to score. I just love to play.” His two goals on the season for the 4-5 Comets (2-3, Northern Buckeye Conference) don’t come close to ranking him near the top of Memmer’s stat sheet, but Tyler relishes doing the small things that need to be done. If that means physical play, so be it.
As a result, he cracked into a varsity roster spot as a sophomore during the Comets’ 7-10-1 (3-8, NBC) campaign of 2016, in part because during his freshman season he found the back of opposing nets six times while starring mostly for the junior varsity. However, Memmer says Tyler seems to come with a gnawing hunger to keep getting better. Like senior defender Jack Ford, whose toughness, Tyler says, inspires him to never give up the fight. And, sophomore captain Dillon Sims, who Tyler calls a natural leader out on the pitch that everyone responds to. And, like Bihn, who has tallied 15 goals about halfway through the season. Tyler describes Bihn’s play as a “dominantly fast and powerful game.” Bihn lauds Tyler’s unselfishness on the pitch, his old-school “team-first” attitude, and a pair of quick feet that seem to keep the ball moving. Stewart praises his fellow midfielder for his soccer intelligence, which he explains enables Tyler to make effective, splitsecond decisions. As a result, Tyler led the Comets in steals with over 30 in 2016. “His vision and his ability to make passes that set up the attack is just incredible,” agrees Coach Memmer. “And, to top that off, he is tremendous at dispossessing his opponents during the run of play.” Learning the game has been a lifelong experience for Tyler. Tyler counts his influences on Lionel Messi from his favorite professional powerhouse, FC Barcelona. “I’ve been playing this game ever since I was six-years-old out at Fireside Park, and since then I just stuck with the game and the game stuck with me,” shares Tyler, who played three years of travel league for Valentis Athletica Club out of Bowling Green and eight years of an indoor brand of the game. “I’d love to score a goal every time I step out there the rest of the season, and I’d like to go for captain next year, because that would really mean a lot to me,” he says. “But most of all, I just want to do whatever I need to do to help my team win. I just want to keep it in my head that I can always get better. I just want to play the game hard.”
