Woodmore schools

Personnel, programs off chopping block By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com

As the financial picture of the Woodmore school district becomes clearer, the school board is continuing to remove personnel positions and programs from the chopping block. Board members Tuesday unanimously approved retaining field trips, supplemental positions such as coaches and advisors, busing, the gifted and talented program teacher, a custodial position and an elementary physical education teacher for the 2015-16 school year. The positions and other items were part of an extensive list of proposed cuts the board and administration compiled earlier this year as the district was coming to grips with an overstatement of revenues from tangible personal property taxes in its five-year forecast. The cuts were to be enacted if a 0.75 percent earned income tax on the May ballot wasn’t approved. Voters rejected the levy but the district’s finances recently got a boost from a $280,000 reimbursement for an overpayment to the North Point Educational Service Center. Projected revenues from property tax collections are also on course to increase

by about $120,000 in the current fiscal year, which ends June 30, compared to last year, and total revenues this fiscal year, including the North Star reimbursement, are also projected to increase. The board in May approved retaining a counselor, music teacher, and four elementary classroom teachers who were also on the list of proposed cuts. Linda Bringman, district superintendent, said after the meeting Tuesday the administration won’t determine how many of the classroom teachers will actually be hired for the coming school year until enrollment figures are in. The board is also considering increases in student fees and pay-to-participate fees to boost revenues but hasn’t taken action. Treasurer Jaime Pearson informed the board Tuesday a version of the state’s next biennium budget pending in the senate “looks favorable” for the district but cautioned the budget hasn’t been completed. Residents attending the meeting applauded after the board voted to retain the positions. In other business, the board unanimously approved proceeding with the contract bidding process for the demolition of the junior high wing of the high school building in Elmore. The board also voted unanimously to

plan for the demolition of the former elementary school building in Woodville but couldn’t agree on whether or not to plan for demolishing a wing of the building that housed kindergarten and first grade classes before the district opened a new elementary school. A proposal to retain the wing and use it for storage has been discussed but the board is still weighing the costs of revamping it to make it suitable for storage use versus other alternative such as constructing a pole barn. Corinna Bench, a board member, said she preferred postponing demolition until other options are deemed not feasible. Joe Liszak, a member of the board’s finance committee, said after the meeting the costs of maintaining the wing aren’t justified. “Even though personnel are being brought back, we still don’t have the financial reserves we should have. We’re on a pretty thin margin financially. It makes no sense to me to keep an old building when we have no idea how much it will cost to renovate even for storage,” he said. “Permanent improvement money would be used for that and we still have a lot of issues that need to be taken care of at the high school that will also require PI money.”

Sixty-three-year old Brenda Snyder was the chief chemist for Toledo’s water treatment plant for 15 years. Her tenure includes being chief chemist during the water crisis last August 2-4 when the City of Toledo was faced with unsafe levels of toxic microcystin in its water and a “do not drink” advisory was sent to 500,000 residents, making national news. Snyder believes the only reason levels were so high was because wind and other conditions forced the algae to be highly concentrated near Toledo’s intake valve, which is in the lake in 24 feet of water three miles from the treatment plant. She calls it a “minor blip that had major consequences.” When a half million people could not drink water, it helped wake the nation about Lake Erie’s algae issues. “When you say do not drink the water, it affects a lot of things,” Snyder said. Since, she has retired from her position with the city and is now a research associate for the University of Toledo. Her mission is to to improve the detection of toxins in the lake before they reach the intakes. Snyder, who stressed she did not retire because of the crisis but because of changes in the state retirement system, was on vacation the Friday the test results first came back indicating that toxin levels were too high to drink the water. After repeated testing, in the early hours of Saturday morning, the city issued its advisory. The advisory and round the clock media coverage lasted 55 hours, and she ended up spending an additional 90 hours at the East Toledo plant, sleeping very little. She says she “loved” her job as chief chemist, and can tell you lots of things about water that you may have never known. She says most of the world is jealous of our water problems. Our problems don’t come close to comparing to California’s water issues, and one-third of all deaths globally can be traced to water-borne illnesses. “In some parts of Africa, many people are dead by age 23 because of parasites in Continued on page 2

Former chief seeks better toxin detection Continued from front page the water,” Snyder said. At the same time, she said “pure” water is not what treatment plants are seeking, but “safe” water. It is better to have certain chemicals in the water, especially calcium, than not at all. Here in Toledo, only one to two percent of the water treated by the city’s plant gets drank, the majority is for industrial purposes and residential uses, like watering lawns and laundry. The largest user of Toledo water, she believes, is Toledo Refinery on the east side and Chrysler’s Jeep plant in West Toledo follows closely behind. Snyder believes last year’s advisory never would have been happened if it weren’t for minimum detection levels of microcystin just set by the Ohio EPA. The Ohio EPA MDL is set at less than .3 parts per million, which she believes any “detect” of microcystin would set off. The U.S. EPA, however, is to set its MDL at 1.6 for adults and school-age youth and .3 for infants, which means a drinking advisory would have never been issued for adults. Research dollars for detection In response to growing concerns about the toxin in municipal water systems and high costs associated with treating it, the Ohio Board of Regents dedicated $2 million, plus matching funds from participating institutions, like UT. That establishes a Lake Erie Research and Development Initiative, which will focus on five areas — Lake Erie harmful algal blooms and lake water quality; production of safe drinking water; land use practices, sources of enrichment, water quality and engineered systems; human health and toxicity; and economics and policy. The UT Lake Erie Center’s Dr. Thomas Bridgeman is the principal investigator for the Lake Erie HABs and lake quality in Maumee Bay and surrounding areas of the Western Lake Erie Basin. Objectives for the two-year project include sampling around the Toledo and Oregon City water intakes and other Western Lake Erie sites and aiding development of an advanced warning system network for the water utilities. It is hoped this project will provide water treatment facilities with advanced warning of potential HABs that may migrate near the water intakes. LEC researchers say the problem with the current system is by the time the sensors, located near the intakes, provide information, the facilities only have a few hours before HABs reach the intakes. It is hoped that the new project will provide an early-warning system with the potential to increase advanced warning to 12 to 24

Bridgeman said that the research includes finding methods to track phosphorous and other particles as they travel through the Maumee River, enter Lake Erie and feed the algae, which would help forecast the algal blooms more accurately. Dr. Bridgeman, who has been monitoring algal blooms for 14 years, and Snyder spoke at an open forum Wednesday for UT’s undergraduate research students and the general public at the LEC, located on Bayshore Road in Oregon. Bridgeman said it is not just toxic algae levels that are increasing, but nearly all types of algae. Bridgeman says the blooms have continually worsened since 2008, but Snyder believes that last year’s crisis will not happen because of new technology installed at the treatment plant that will double the capacity of adding power activated carbon

into the water. Snyder believes for a longer term solution, Toledo is looking at adding ozone, but that renovation will take years and millions of dollars to complete. “The problem is not that the water treatment plant can’t handle this. The problem is, ‘How much are you willing to pay for water?’” Snyder said. In addition, bulletins are predicting lower levels of the toxic algal in the lake this year, but she says that could change quickly. She has seen the algae move up and down the lake column (vertically) dramatically within a few hours. That means high concentrations of toxic algae could be high near the intake valve one minute, and then the same day the algae might move elsewhere, so the demand for treatment still depends on weather conditions and other lake factors.

Patrons of the Harris-Elmore Public Library and its branch in Genoa are being asked to voice their opinion on what services they’d like to see offered. The library is conducting a community survey to evaluate its services and facilities and is planning to form focus groups at both facilities, “We want to make sure we’re doing things our users want from us,” Amy Laity, director of the library, said. “With more electronic resources available we want to make sure we’re keeping up with demand for that.” The survey, which is available at both sites and online at the library website and was an insert in the June 1 edition of The Press, will be conducted until the end of June. “A consultant from the state library will then compile the data for us,” Laity said. “He will also conduct the focus groups. We’ll probably contact people in July or August for the groups. We’d like to have two groups of 10 or 12 people - one in Elmore and one in Genoa. After the state library conducts the groups they’ll come back with six or eight recommendations for us to pursue for services. We’ll choose from that what we think can be done.” Recommendations will likely be implemented by November. More people are conducting online research, she said, and there may be demand for more electronic data bases. Also, the demand for eBooks is “amazing.” The survey asks respondents what services they’d like to see the library develop: lending of eReaders, tax assistance, small group meeting space, teen center, additional programming, computer center, additional technology training and home school help center. Also, the survey asks for a ranking of importance of services, materials and programs already offered. As an incentive to complete the survey, the library will have a drawing of Amazon gift cards. The loss of state revenue in recent years has been offset by the passage in 2010 of a 1.1-mill local property tax levy that generates about $250,000 annually for the Genoa and Elmore sites, Laity said.

Woodmore schools

Board filled vacancy correctly, attorney says By Larry Limpf News Editor news@presspublications.com The Woodmore school board followed the correct statutory format when it met in a special meeting May 31 and appointed Dan Hoppe to a seat left vacant by the resignation of Grant Cummings, according to a letter from the board’s attorney to the Sandusky County prosecutor’s office. Timothy McCarthy, an attorney with a Toledo law firm retained by the board, in a June 5 email to Thomas Stierwalt, county prosecutor, states the prosecutor’s interpretation of state statutes covering board appointments is flawed. “A board of education has a window of opportunity that opens 10 days after a vacancy occurs and closes 30 days after a vacancy occurs in which it may select a successor to fill a vacancy,” the email says. “That successor can be selected in the “next regular” meeting of the board of education or in a “special” meeting of the board. If the board of education is unable to agree, by a majority vote, upon a successor during that time, the decision defaults to the probate court.” Norman Solze, an assistant prosecutor with the Sandusky County office; Mark Mulligan, the Ottawa County prosecutor, and Jim Stucko, of a Columbus firm retained by the board, have offered a different interpretation of the statute. Their opinions contend a board is required to fill a vacancy at its first meeting – be it a regular or special meeting - sometime between the 10day wait after the vacancy occurs and the 30-day deadline. A letter from Stucko to Joe Liszak, a board member, says: “…if the board filled the vacancy during its second meeting after the vacancy was created, even if it was still within the 10 day to 30 day window, it would not comply with the statute.” Liszak sought an opinion from Stucko prior to the board’s May 19 meeting in which Liszak, Steve Huss, board president, and Corinna Bench, a board member, voted on two candidates for the vacancy but couldn’t reach agreement. Board member Julie Bowman was absent. Liszak the next day sought an opinion from Mulligan and later that month an opinion from Solze. Cummings’ resignation occurred around May 6. The board met in a special meeting May 12 to interview five candidates and when the May 19 meeting didn’t result in an appointment, Huss scheduled the special May 31 meeting, which was attended by Bench, Bowman and Huss. The three unanimously supported Hoppe. McCarthy’s letter cites Ohio Supreme Court rulings that favor public board’s making appointments rather than a judge. “The procedure to fill vacancies on boards of education shares its statutory roots with the procedure to elect new members,” the letter says. “In both cases,

the law favors the notion of selection by the public, as opposed to the judiciary.” The Woodmore board last Tuesday voted 4-1 to end its agreement with Stucko’s law firm, Scott, Scriven & Wahoff. Liszak cast the dissenting vote. When

Education, health State Rep. Michael Sheehy (D-Oregon) announced last week that the state has approved $200,000 for higher education institutions in Northwest Ohio for the administration and development of the Choose Ohio First Co-op and Internship Program. “Education is the foundation for job creation and retention,” said Rep. Sheehy. “A robust internship program helps students gain valuable workplace experience while pursuing a degree, and hopefully will lead to more students remaining in Ohio after graduation to work and raise a family.” In addition to the internship funding, the state also made a significant investment in local healthcare services on June 8 after the Controlling Board approved a total of $600,000 over the next two fiscal years for local psychiatric care.

EPA study of tributaries underway By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com The Ohio EPA has begun a water quality study of select Maumee River basin tributaries in several counties, including Wood County. The Maumee River basin, one of the largest watersheds in Ohio, has dozens of smaller streams draining thousands of square miles of land in northwest Ohio. The Ohio EPA is collecting water samples, fish and macroinvertebrate species through October. The physical, biological and chemical data will help determine water quality in the streams and identify any problem areas. The Ohio EPA will share its results in a report with communities in the watershed. The study will help develop options for improving water quality in the impaired areas. Dina Pierce, media coordinator with the Ohio EPA, told The Press last week that the study is part of routine sampling the agency conducts in select watersheds around the state each year. “It is part of the federal Clean Water Act that requires states to assess surface water quality and if impairments are found, find solutions that will improve water quality so the streams meet water quality standards for human recreation, aquatic life and as drinking water sources, depending on the stream,” said Pierce. The study will focus on many aspects of water quality, from water chemistry – including nutrients such as phosphorus and nitrogen – to sediment chemistry and collecting fish and macroinvertebrates, such as bugs and crayfish, and looking at their health and varieties of species, she said. “The water chemistry sampling gives us a good picture of what is occurring in the stream at that moment in time when the sample was collected. Looking at the aquatic life gives us a good idea of what has been occurring in the stream long-term,”

(Press photos by Ken Grosjean) she said. “For example, if we see species that can tolerate a lot of pollution, such as carp, but few or no types of species that cannot handle much pollution, such as smallmouth bass and Northern hog suckers, it will tell us that the stream quality is impaired. By contrast, if we see a lot of fish and macroinvertebrate species that don’t like pollution, it tells us that stream quality is good.” Besides Wood County, other counties included in the study include Defiance,

Police focus on East Toledoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hot spots By J. Patrick Eaken Press Staff Writer news@presspublications.com East Toledo residents told police they could hear shots fired near East Broadway and Starr and at the Charles F. Weiler Homes on Fassett Street â&#x20AC;&#x201D; two areas considered hot spots for crime. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what police want to hear, believe it or not. Not the fact that residents heard shots fired, but Toledo police want residents to be the eyes and ears of the community in a new community policing strategy. To do so, police need as much information as possible about what is going on. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You report to us what is going on in the neighborhood and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll use our resources to be able to handle it,â&#x20AC;? said Sgt. Patricia Gomez. Residents are responding. It is happening at a rate so alarming that Captain Tom Weigand estimates 250,000 911 calls are going to the Toledo call center every year. East Toledo Family Center community builder Jodi Gross, liaison for One Voice for East Toledo, said an app on her phone alerts her every time a 911 call is placed for an incident close to her home or any other address she specifies. The app includes the address of the criminal activity, the type of activity, and other details. She is â&#x20AC;&#x153;shockedâ&#x20AC;? how much criminal activity takes place. Sgt. Gomez and other Toledo police were responding to 25 residentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; questions at a public forum held at the East Toledo Family Center Wednesday night. Police Chief George Kral was scheduled to appear but was called away to family business, so Capt. Weigand, the Central District commander and acting deputy chief for field operations, stood in his place. Weigand, a 31-year veteran of the Toledo police force, said a new community policing strategy entails using as many resources as possible and focusing on a targeted neighborhood for a limited duration. They are currently concentrating on the East Broadway and Starr corridor, and during that time target enforcement has limited crime to one burglary and one robbery. He said that the Main, Starr, and East Broadway corridor has very few homeowners in residence and lots of blighted, rented property â&#x20AC;&#x201D; an area with demographics and socioeconomic issues that typically lead to crime. He said conflicts occur most often between 3-10 p.m. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That area of East Toledo is at a critical juncture right now. In that area, we want all the help that we can possibly get,â&#x20AC;? Weigand said. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Parents not accountableâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; However, residents brought up issues, like drag racing on Woodville Road, from neighborhoods across East Toledo. A resident said he saw a youngster walking down the street waving a rifle. He said the youngster lives in a house on Valleywood near Nevada and he has witnessed this youngster and his friends steal, but doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see the parents doing anything about it.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The problem now is the parents â&#x20AC;&#x201D; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pure and simple,â&#x20AC;? the resident said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If my kids screwed up, I paid the price. The parents are not being held accountable.â&#x20AC;? Another complaint heard regularly is alleged late night criminal activity at a motorcycle club on Kelsey Street. Sgt. Gomez said an investigation of that site is already underway. Residents say they are pleased with the way the building has been renovated, including a garden and new facade. They say at night, behavior that includes drinking in the streets and loud noise, has become a chronic nuisance. Capt. Weigand said he is aware of potential criminal activity there, police are monitoring it, and he â&#x20AC;&#x153;would like nothing better than to beat down the door of that club,â&#x20AC;? but says the investigation has to continue until enough evidence can be brought to a judge for probable cause and a warrant for search and seizure. Remain persistent Capt. Weigand stressed that police cannot be everywhere at all times, so they need residents to help provide information about drug houses, gang activity, prostitution, and other criminal activity going on. Tips can be left anonymously on a drug hotline, but he said details are important to execute a search warrant. He

needs the address, but much more â&#x20AC;&#x201D; license plate numbers, automobile types, and as much information on the residents living there as possible. With enough information, a unit from the Special Operations Bureau can begin investigating claims. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is no way on earth that I or the police in sum can eliminate all the criminal activity. We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sustain that level of enforcement to one area for any length of time because of resources,â&#x20AC;? Weigand said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want everyone to engage â&#x20AC;&#x201D; look at everything from an environmental standpoint to reduce the potential for you to be targeted for criminal activity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to build enough information, what we call probable cause, to get a warrant. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a new way of policing. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re using intelligence as much as possible.â&#x20AC;? Community police officer Tracey Britt stressed that because of higher priorities, often police cannot respond to a 911 call in time to catch criminal activity in progress. She suggests that residents should keep calling, and that builds information to help police presents its case. Officer Britt noted that of 750 police officers, 250 are â&#x20AC;&#x153;gruntsâ&#x20AC;? in the field who respond to calls. Britt said you break that down to two stations, four shifts, and throw in vacations, sickness, and injuries, and you can see how 250 officers can be undermanned when they have to cover the entire city.

People Millbury Community Garden sprouting at St. Peterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Church Millbury Community Garden at St. Peterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s United Church of Christ has become a reality. Drawing on her previous experience with community gardens, St. Peterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pastor Juli Bertalan proposed the concept to her parishioners last fall, with the goal of benefiting the community as well as fostering fellowship. A committee was formed, chaired by Tom Gulvas, and the planning began. Gulvas and others visited nearby community gardens to learn from their experiences and connect with resources already available. An area behind the church was designated for garden space. The village of Millbury made dirt and compost leaves available. Colorful raised beds have been constructed and some have been reserved at a nominal fee for families that wish to grow. Other areas, including a large garden and an herb garden, are intended solely for sharing with the community. Water for the gardens will be collected from runoff from the church and collected into a 250 gallon storage container. Compost bins are ready for assembly. The gardeners hope to learn from an experimental straw bale garden which is a new concept in gardening. The process, which includes planting seeds in straw bales resting atop the ground, was proposed by committee member Mary Densic. Area residents are welcome to participate in the community gardening experience which will hopefully foster fellowship. Meetings are held the second and fourth Monday at 7 p.m. at the church, however maintaining the garden is an ongoing process. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All are invited to come to the garden, pull a weed, harvest herbs and vegetables, and make new friends,â&#x20AC;? Densic said. For info, call Tom Gulvas at 419-7071747 or visit the Millbury Community Garden at St. Peterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s UCC on Facebook.

Officials request cut in phosphorus By Kelly J. Kaczala Press News Editor kkaczala@presspublications.com The Lucas County Commissioners last week unanimously voted to request the governors of Ohio, Indiana and Michigan and the premier of Ontario to commit to a 40 percent cut in dissolved reactive phosphorus in Western Lake Erie. The vote was in advance of the Leadership Summit of the Great Lakes & St. Lawrence Governors and Premiers hosted by the Council of Great Lakes Governors that was scheduled for June 12-14 in Quebec City, Quebec. The theme of the summit was â&#x20AC;&#x153;Connecting Across Borders.â&#x20AC;? The summit was by invitation only. Among those planning on attending was Craig Butler, director of the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency. Reducing dissolved reactive phosphorus in Western Lake Erie would lower the risk of the development of harmful algal blooms, which caused a three day water ban in northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan last summer. Last August, over 400,000 Toledo water customers were unable to consume tap water for three days after high levels of microcystin, a toxin created by blue green algae, was detected in samples taken from the Collins Park water treatment plant in East Toledo. Samples from the plant, which draws its water from the western basin of Lake Erie, showed that microcystin was detected at a rate that exceeded the safety threshold established by the World Health Organization. The toxin, at high levels, can cause abnormal liver function in humans and animals. Aerial photos showed a highly concentrated algal bloom had developed near the direct intake of Toledoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s water treatment plant on Lake Erieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shallow western basin. Dissolved reactive phosphorus fuels the development of harmful algal blooms. Primary sources of phosphorus include fertilizer (commercial and manure) runoff from farm fields, untreated discharge from sewer treatment plants, industrial waste, broken septic systems, combined sewer overflows, and residual sediment already in the lake. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When the sustainability of our safe drinking water is threatened, protecting water quality becomes a paramount concern,â&#x20AC;? Lucas County Commissioners said in a statement last week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We urge Gov. Kasich and his colleagues to take this action now to preserve Lake Erie. Government leaders along the Lake Erie shoreline are also requesting similar commitments before the Leadership Summit. Sandy Bihn, executive director of the Lake Erie Waterkeeper, said she is pleased by the commissionersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; request to cut back phosphorus by 40 percent. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Any reduction in phosphorus helps the lake,â&#x20AC;? she said. In the future, she would like to see cutbacks â&#x20AC;&#x153;based on good science and numbers.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s get the sources identified. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know where the phosphorus is coming from or if more is coming into the system. How much is coming from wastewater, from fertilizer, from manure and storm water? Right now, we do not have a baseline. While we would like to see the 40 percent reduction, we want it based on scientific information so that we know where weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re at and we know the lake is recovering,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Other communities have source allocation data, she said, such as Green Bay, Wisconsin. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They know exactly where itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coming from. They know where their problems are. The sources have to be reduced for the water to become healthy again. They have `report cardsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and accountability. Unless you have accountability and show thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s real reductions, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going to happen. Give us a report card, give us real reductions in all sources. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s go after it.â&#x20AC;? The U.S. EPA evaluates whether communities are meeting these reductions, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s based on real numbers. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have those real numbers in Lake Erie. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a problem.â&#x20AC;?

Samsen Furniture & Design to become Art Van of Genoa Two well-known furniture families who first opened their doors in the booming 1950s have joined forces to offer a wider selection to area consumers. Doug Samsen, owner of Samsen Furniture & Design, said he will close both his Genoa and Perrysburg stores and reopen the Genoa store as Art Van of Genoa, becoming one of the first Art Van franchise stores in Ohio. Samsen is in the process of closing the Perrysburg store and will hold a going out of business sale later this summer at the Genoa store. He said he will reopen as Art Van of Genoa in the fall. The move will benefit consumers with more choices and affordability, he said. Art Van has 48 furniture stores and 44 PureSleep stores in the Midwest including one in Toledo, according to the company website. “This is a good opportunity for us. We can take advantage of the efficiencies of a large retailer,” Samsen said. “I think it’s a big upside. They have a lot of nice product.” Broyhill, Bernhardt, Sealy, Simmons and Natuzzi are among the brands Art Van offers. The new store will also offer higher-end furniture from Art Van’s Scott Shuptrine line and have a PureSleep center. Samsen anticipates keeping his staff of 33 intact and adding a few more parttime sales reps as the new store will have extended hours into the early evening during the week and additional Sunday and holiday hours. Samsen will also continue to offer design services. Samsen will concentrate on serving the market area east of the Maumee River including Oregon, Northwood, Genoa, Port Clinton and Fremont, while the company store in Holland serves the west side of Toledo. Samsen’s Furniture was founded by Doug’s father, Robert, in 1954 with the help of Robert’s father, Walter. The store was first located in downtown Genoa before moving to its current location on Route 51. The store has been expanded a number of times and now contains more than 45,000 square feet of showroom. Art Van was founded in 1959 by Art Van Elslander who opened the first store in Detroit, specializing in Danish contemporary furnishings. Today, the company em-

Perhaps nothing tears at the social fabric like envy. Comparing ourselves to others will invariably make us feel either arrogant and superior or bitter and inferior. When we compare favorably to others we’re likely to feel superior and therefore risk being arrogant, while comparing unfavorably to others is likely to make us bitter and feel dejected. Life is not a contest, and while it is only normal to want to know how we did on the test relative to other students, or how much we earn relative to our colleagues, invariably we are not going to be at the top of every list, or perhaps even at the top of any list.

eek: Envy is a Bitter Root middle, and that's okay. Envy is not only a root of bitterness at work and in school, but often also within families. Sibling rivalry is natural, and competition can be a good thing, but many families have lasting scars from sibling rivalry that was taken too far, and envious feelings often outlast childhood. So put a check on your envy by avoiding unhealthy comparisons. You’re fine just the way you are. – Christopher Simon. For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.

Top Ten favor engineering; business, medicine popular Engineering continues to be a hot field for our Top Ten graduating students, be it mechanical, electrical, chemical, civil, biomedical or aerospace. One of those future engineers, Mary Greggila of Oak Harbor, will attend the University of Akron to specialize in corrosion engineering, the science of preventing and retarding the effects of corrosion on metal. Of 111 top students profiled in The Press’s 18th annual special section, which is included in this week’s paper, 29 students will enter the field of engineering. Engineering was the top choice 10 years ago and in 1998, the first year for our Top Ten. Business was the second most popular choice, chosen by 14 students. Business didn’t even register in 2005 or 1998. Other popular fields of choice include medicine, exercise science and physical rehab, nursing and education. Pre-med, pharmacy and nursing were other popular choices in 2005. Pre-med was also popular in 1998, however, education and computer science were also top choices. Only two chose computer science this year. None chose it in 2005. Compare these choices to the most

Page Two by John Szozda popular choices nationwide, according to USA Today: business administration, psychology, nursing and biology. Two top students are undecided about a major or a college and two will enter the workforce, one in manufacturing and one in the trades. One student listed her major as exploratory studies, a college program that probes a student’s interests and options before the student chooses a major. Eighty percent of all college students change their major at least once, according to the National Center for Education Statistics. The average cost of a year of college today is around $15,000. Changing a major can be an expensive decision, so more colleges are offering exploratory studies to help their students choose the right career. That can be helpful when a large university may offer more than 200 majors. High school, with its limited choices

of subject matter and commitment to state achievement tests, contributes to this indecision, as does the maturation process of a typical teenager. Most of our top students will stay close to home, avoiding higher out-of-state fees. Eighty-six percent will attend Ohio colleges. The most popular schools are: Toledo, 34; Bowling Green, 18, and The Ohio State University, 15. Surprisingly, only three chose Owens Community College. In 2005, 13 did. In 1998, when the economy was better, 21 percent of students went to college out of state. This year it’s 11 percent. Juliana Cajka of Eastwood had the highest GPA at 4.64. She will study adolescent education at Bowling Green State University. Eastwood, which submitted the top 10 percent of its senior class, had 20 students with 4.0 GPAs or higher. An interesting trend has emerged since 1998. Female students dominated that first Top Ten, 75 percent. Only 25 percent were male. In 2005 it was 39 percent male. This year it was 45 percent male. Also interesting and in keeping with national trends for the decline in club, church and organizational activities for the general adult population, student involve-

ment in clubs has diminished. In 2005, all but one student listed a club activity. This year it had dropped to 89 percent. Participation in sports, on the other hand, has slightly increased. Sixty-six percent of Top Ten students participated in a sport this year. In 2005, it was 56 percent. Granted, something else could be in play here. The Top Ten forms are filled out by the students or an advisor, so some information may not make it to the form. Hence, this is not a scientific study by any means, just a glimpse into the mindset of our brightest students. There are a few observations that can be drawn from this information, however: The high cost of college is keeping more of our top students in state; males are taking high school studies more seriously; and two-thirds of all Top Ten students participate in a sport. School boards should keep this in mind when they threaten to eliminate sports to pressure the public into passing a levy. Their best students may opt to open enroll elsewhere. To see The Top Ten profiles see this week’s second section. Comment by email at zoz@presspublications.com

Be aware, others can have a significant influence on you Have you ever spent time with people who are constantly complaining, have a negative outlook, always have a snide remark as to why it’s not possible to succeed, and seem constantly unhappy? How do you feel as a result? Regardless of how grounded you may be, you never come away from that situation feeling really upbeat. Who you spend your time with has a big impact on you. The power of association is a significant force. You are affected by the energy level and intentions of the people you chose to be around. This relationship begins at a young age and is readily observable in young children. When a young child plays with other kids who are rude, pushy, mean, and inconsiderate, that child typically picks up the same behavior traits. When the same child plays with kind, polite, considerate, and thoughtful children, he or she tends to pick up the desirable behavior. As a result, parents typically want their children to be around those who will be a good influence. The same scenario holds true all throughout life. You experience a subconscious tendency to mimic the behavior of the people surrounding you. Therefore, it is in your best interest to be very selective in choosing people you spend time around. Seek out those who share your motivation, ethics, goals, dreams, enthusiasm, and attitude towards others. These are people who will be encouraging and uplifting to be around. Successful people spend time with other successful people. Happy people associate with other happy people. Positive individuals seek out others with the same outlook. Athletes know the power of association. They seek to practice with other athletes who are at or above their own ability. Athletes understand this is key to their improvement. They are very particular as to who they work with for training. For students, forming a study group is a proven technique for enhancing academic performance. If you were interested in

yourself with sad people makes it tough for you to feel great. Never be rude to people. Just pick carefully with whom to associate. Politely and respectfully decline invitations which are not in your best interest. Just because someone may not be a good influence for you doesn’t in any way imply that they are not a good person. Actively search out people who share your level of enthusiasm, have a positive attitude, exhibit a great outlook, have goals they are actively working to achieve, and offer encouragement. Avoid spending lots of time with people who have little ambition, a negative outlook, a poor work ethic, few goals, are constant complainers, and constantly find fault in others.

Lifesaving lesson To the editor: Recently our oldest grandson, Carson Snyder, became a true hero. Carson, a fifth-grader at Eisenhower Intermediate School, had just gotten off the school bus and was walking the half block to his home. As he passed a parked car, he noticed a dog inside. The dog seemed to be in distress. Very concerned about the dog’s welfare, he went home and talked with his Mom about what he should do. He said he recalled that on a recent ride to go camping, he had heard several commercials on the radio cautioning about how “heat kills,” so he knew this was a dangerous place for the dog to be. Carson then returned to the car, where

the dog was now lying down. He went to the door of the house where the car was parked and asked who the owner of the car was, explaining what he had seen. The owner of the home indicated that the car belonged to a friend of his child. When the owner of the car was told of the situation, she immediately went to get the dog. Apparently, she had only meant to stop for a moment at her friend’s house and had stayed longer than she had intended, forgetting that her dog was in the car. She was very thankful to Carson for alerting her to the situation. We are very proud of Carson’s quick thinking and willingness to step in and take action when he saw the dog was in danger.

Get Growing

Pay attention to plants’ nutritional deficiencies Family Briefs Get Annual festival Growing gives sky-high fun By J.K. DePeal Garden Writer news@presspublications.com

It’s June and the gardening season in Northwest Ohio is in “full swing! Cool, wet days are turning to very hot and humid spells. Many of the perennials, trees and shrubs in our yards are showing their appreciation for the wet weather with healthy, vigorous growth and abundant buds and blossoms. Cool temperatures and wet weather also gives us an extended period for sowing seeds and putting in transplants and the garden centers are full of some very colorful, healthy flowers, foliage plants, trees and shrubs for the choosing. Recently, a friend gave me several garden almanacs from the 1940s. Thumbing through one from 1944, I read the entry for the month of June. The heading read “Plant a Garden. You’ll be glad you did.” The article went on to offer gardeners very inexpensive, high-germinating varieties of vegetable seeds for use in their Victory Gardens. Victory Gardens were encouraged for home gardeners to grow their own vegetables so that more of the commercially

grown produce could be used to provide food for the troops overseas. The seeds were sold at 10 cents a package and included such varieties as Stringless Kidney Wax and Bountiful Green Beans, Detroit Dark Red and Crosby’s Egyptian Beets (both of these were highly recommended for canning), Danver’s Half Long and Oxheart Carrots (advertised as “good keepers”), Red Wethersfield and Ebeneezer Onions (also good keepers), and Break O’Day, Ponderosa and Rutger’s Tomatoes. The vegetables advertised were, for the most part, easy to grow, heavy producers and good for canning and/or storage. Victory Gardens were a great idea in 1944 and even now, 71 years later, a great idea again. Most gardeners have already applied plant foods and fertilizers to their gardens to feed the growing plants through the summer season. However, it is not too early to begin to notice signs and symptoms in

plants that may indicate nutritional deficiencies. For instance, slow stunted growth with a marked yellowing of a plant’s foliage may show a need for nitrogen. Slow, stunted growth in a fruit bearing plant with delayed ripening or poor fruit development may mean the tree or shrub needs extra phosphorus. If a plant has weak shoots, small fruit or slow growth and yellowing at the edges of the leaves, potassium may be low. If deformed foliage and buds are a problem, calcium will help. Yellowing between the veins of a leaf will respond to magnesium, and pale, early leaves on a plant with thin weak stems can be aided with Sulphur. Plant fertilizers are marked on the bag or box and most include N, P, and K. Some fertilizers also include secondary minerals such as calcium, Sulphur and magnesium. Fertilizers are usually applied in the spring but can be used through the gardening season. Special applications to specific trees, shrubs, flowers, etc. can mean the difference between healthy, luxuriant growth and weak, spindly plants. Weakened plants often cannot make it through periods of extreme weather and will usually have little or no productive value. It pays to feed your plants and try to feed according to what the signs and symptoms require.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northwestern Ohio (BBBS) is in the midst of its â&#x20AC;&#x153;100 Mentors in 100 Daysâ&#x20AC;? campaign, committed to enlisting new volunteer mentors for children ages 6-18. The campaign aims to pair each child (â&#x20AC;&#x153;littleâ&#x20AC;?) in need of a mentor with an adult volunteer (â&#x20AC;&#x153;bigâ&#x20AC;?) within 100 days. While the official campaign is running from April to July, BBBS is in constant need of caring and dedicated mentors, especially men. Mentors are carefully matched with a child based on assessments regarding personal interests, time availability, and commitment levels, ensuring positive outcomes and lasting effects on the child. With the help of their â&#x20AC;&#x153;bigs,â&#x20AC;? little brothers and sisters have become â&#x20AC;&#x153;more confident in their schoolwork performance, able to get along better with their families, 46 percent less likely to begin using illegal drugs, 27 percent less likely to begin using alcohol, and 52 percent less likely to skip school,â&#x20AC;? according to BBBS research.

He pushed me to where I didn’t think I could be pushed.

“

Grace Winckowski went down to last weekend’s Division I state track and field meet in Columbus with a purpose. She ended up making history. Winckowski won the state title in the 300-meter hurdles, becoming the first Clay track and field athlete to ever win a state championship. “I have been coaching track and field for 25 years, and the feeling I felt when Grace crossed the finish line was 100 times more than what I thought it would be,” Clay coach Scott Wamer said. “We have been close several times, but never got over that hump. Grace knew that win was not just for her, but for all the Clay High School track and field athletes that were before her and who come after her. In my book, Grace truly is a champion.” Winckowski is the 2015 Alan Miller Jewelers Press Athlete of the Year. Athletes have to win a league, district, or regional championship or qualify to state to make the All-Press Track Honor Roll. Winckowski has done all of that, and more when she added the state title to her resume. Winckowski, who was eighth in the 300-meter hurdles at last year’s state meet, won with a time of 43.5 seconds at Ohio State’s Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium. Sydney Stokes, a senior from Gahanna Lincoln, was second in 43.67. “I was really confident in myself,” Winckowski said. “That was one thing my coach said I needed. I went in being confident, knowing I could do it, and that really helped me out in the end. It helped going (to state) my sophomore and junior year. Sophomore year I got a feel for what state was actually like. Junior year I got on the podium, so senior year I didn’t have to worry about getting All-Ohio. I could just have fun and run my best race.” Winckowski also placed eighth in the 100 hurdles, in 14.85. She ran 14.8 in the preliminaries. She placed eighth in Columbus in the 100 hurdles (15.23) as a junior. “I wasn’t planning on winning that one,” Winckowski said of the 100 hurdles. “I was just running for All-Ohio (honors) and to get on the podium. I was real happy I got eighth in that (event) again this year.” Winckowski broke her own school record in the 300s the previous week at the regional meet in Amherst. Her time of 43.64 was the top state-qualifying time, and she then ran a 44.63 during last Saturday’s prelims. “I wasn’t really too worried about the prelims,” she said. “I just needed to make it into the finals. I set myself up so good for the finals because I was in lane 7. I was in front of all the girls who beat me in the prelims. I couldn’t see them (in the finals), so it made me less nervous.” She said she felt in control the entire race, and added that going from eighth place last season to becoming a state champion as a senior was a huge deal. “Moving up to the top step (on the podium) was unbelievable,” Winckowski said. “It showed the hard work and dedication and determination I put into the sport in the last four months. It’s crazy when people come up to me and say, ‘Hey, you’re the state champ.’ I never thought of myself becoming a state champion in track, nor was I

too concerned about it. “I don’t think I would have gotten to where I am without coach Wamer. He pushed me to where I didn’t think I could be pushed. He was the reason why I was standing on top of that podium.” Winckowski wasn’t the only state qualifier for Clay. Junior Haley Hess was also making her third appearance at the state meet and finished seventh in the 1600 in 5:03.44. Hess won the regional title in 5:05.20

after winning the district meet in 5:09.57. She broke the Three Rivers Athletic Conference record in the mile last month, winning in 4:59.96. “Getting on the podium, that’s good,” said Hess, who placed 12th in the 1600 last year after placing eighth in Columbus as a freshman. “I was pleased with my finish. It was my second fastest time, and that was good. When we went to big meets this year, I was used to going out fast. I think I passed one person on the (final) straightaway. Once it’s over, it’s sad. Now, it’s cross-country time.” Hess finished 10th at last year’s state cross country meet after taking sixth as a sophomore and 56th as a freshman. The performances by Winckowski and Hess last weekend gave the Eagles 13 team points, good for 15th place in the team standings. “That’s our highest finish ever,” Wamer said. “We finished with three All-Ohio performances, and I am so proud of both Grace and Haley. They’re not just great athletes, they’re great kids. We had a lot of fun spending time with them in Columbus.”

Reynolds twins close careers on podium By Mark Griffin Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com Two years ago Colleen Reynolds was on top of the world. The Gibsonburg speedster, a 2015 graduate, won the 400-meter dash at the 2013 state track and field meet and then dropped to fourth place at last year’s state meet in the same event. She found out that sometimes staying on top is more difficult than getting there. Last Saturday, at the Division III state meet at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium in Columbus, Reynolds crossed the finish line in a season-best time of 57.63 seconds, good enough for third place. She also placed fifth in the 200 in 25.73. “My 400, I felt good,” said Reynolds, who had the second best prelim time (58.02). “Obviously I was hoping to get second (behind rival Micah Johnston of Toledo Christian), but I tried not to get my hopes up. Last year I was first after prelims and got fourth. This year I was more prepared. I was happy with third place.” Reynolds turned in a time of 25.97 in the 200 prelims, then bested that mark in the finals to snag fifth place. “The 200 felt good,” she said. “I didn’t get down to state last year in the 200, so it felt good to get back. I didn’t have a very good start. Normally where I pick it up is at the finish. I edged out the St. Joe girl (senior Madisyn Kleinschmidt) at the end. It’s good to get back and get fifth place.” Reynolds will run track at Bowling Green State University, where she will study to be a dietician. Her twin sister, Kendall, also got on the awards podium twice last weekend. Kendall, who placed sixth in the state in the 100 a year ago, took fourth last Saturday in 12.55. Her preliminary time was 12.54. Both Colleen and Kendall are on the Alan Miller Jewelers All-Press Track Honor Roll for the fourth time in their prep careers. “I was pretty happy,” Kendall said. “I came in fifth from the prelims, so I moved up one spot from there. It went pretty well. I was kind of behind from the beginning, but I’m usually a pretty good finisher. That

helped me out. I knew I could get it. Top five was probably my goal. I really wanted to do better than I did last year.” Kendall also ran in the same 400 race as her sister and took seventh in 59.43, after running a career-best 59.37 in the prelims. “I wasn’t expecting to go to the finals,” Kendall said, “but I knew I would have to push pretty hard to get there. I was in lane 1 for prelims and I told myself I would have to go out faster. I got fourth in my heat in the prelims and I was really excited about that. I was in lane 8 (in the finals), so I knew I would have to go out fast and keep my place. “I came in seventh (overall) in prelims and that’s what I finished. I was pretty happy with that. I just wanted to get on the

podium. Colleen and I have never run a final together at state and we were on the podium together, so that was really exciting.” Kendall said she will attend the University of Toledo to study business, but she is not sure if she is going to continue her track career. The Kendall twins also ran on Gibsonburg’s state-qualifying 4x400 relay team, which included freshman Johanna Ehrenhard and sophomore Taylor Weickert. The relay ran a time of 4:07.53 in the prelims and did not make the finals. In the D-III boys meet, Gibsonburg senior Jacob Kiser finished 14th in the high jump with a jump of 6 feet. The winning jump was 6-8.

Woodville’s Roepke tames dirt trucks By Brian Liskai Special to The Press liskai2x@roadrunner.com

“Doing it Diﬀerent. Doing it Right.”

JUNE 15, 2015

www.charliesdodge.com

Daniel Roepke Jr. would make his first start of the season at Fremont Speedway a good one in the AAA Ohio Auto Club Dirt Trucks. The Woodville driver would drive under Matt Foos on late in the race and then would survive a couple of late race cautions to score his 10th career win. “I was playing him (Foos) a little bit I knew he was going to slip up sooner or later so when he did I took a chance. After that caution he started showing his nose a little bit so I had to make sure he couldn’t get up under me again. I have to thank Alvin at Vision Quest for sponsoring the show, Crown Battery and everyone….my dad especially and Adam,” said Roepke. Dana Fry and Matt Foos brought the field to green for the 20-lap dirt truck feature with Foos gaining the upper hand while Cory McCaughey drove into second with Roepke, Fry, Cory Ward and Kent Brewer giving chase. While Foos pulled away slightly, a tremendous four truck battle ensued for second involving McCaughey, Roepke, Brewer and Fry. Roepke would take second on lap 3 but the caution on lap seven for Brad Keckler would slow the action. When the green flew Foos had a hard time holding the bottom line and Roepke would pounce on lap 12 with Brewer in third followed by McCaughey, Fry, Jamie Miller and Keith Sorg. Roepke would drive under Foos for the lead on lap 12. A debris caution on lap 16 followed by another yellow a lap later for a Bradley Stuckey spin would give the fans a three lap shoot out. When the green flew Roepke and Foos ran nose to tail with Brewer and McCaughey also within striking distance. Roepke would hit his marks to take the win over Foos, Brewer, McCaughey and Brad Mitten.

Genoa’s seniors reflect on a championship season

“

By Yaneek Smith Press Contributing Writer sports@presspublications.com

It was a great experience — we were a close-knit family and we always fought to the end.

“

For Genoa’s baseball team, nothing makes the pain of falling short of a state championship go away. However, advancing to the Division III final four speaks for itself. The Comets, which for the third time in the baseball program’s history advanced to the state tournament, saw their dream season fall short of attaining the ultimate goal, falling 6-4 to Cincinnati Summit Country Day in the semifinal at Huntington Park in downtown Columbus. Only one team in each division ends its season with a state championship — a tall task for any baseball team. Behind seven seniors, Genoa finished the season 245, won the Northern Buckeye Conference, claimed its third regional championship and gave baseball-rich community memories that will last for years. In addition, several seniors will continue their baseball careers at the collegiate level. “I will remember the relationship we had as a team and how much fun it all was,” said senior catcher Nick Wolfe. “We were very close and to do something big like this with the guys you grew up with is awesome. It was a fun ride. I wouldn’t trade this team for anything. “To be only the third team to (advance to state) is an honor. The 1974 & ’99 teams were great teams and to be a part of that baseball history and Genoa’s history is definitely an honor.” Another senior, finesse breaking ball pitcher Luke Rightnowar, who transferred from Toledo Christian and came to Genoa with his father, Ron, the coach, was the team’s ace, going 9-2 with a 1.26 ERA and striking out 40 in 62.2 innings. His counterpart, the hard throwing Jake Wojciechowski was just as impressive, finishing with a 5-1 record, 1.50 ERA and 57 strikeouts in just 40.1 innings. His nohitter in the Comets’ 4-0 win over Huron in the regional finals was a classic and will cement his place in Genoa sports history. He and Rightnowar were joined in the rotation by Kyle Edwards (4-0, 2.00 ERA, 23 K) and Matt Aumiller (4-1, 2.40 ERA, 21 K), form-

Luke Rightnowar was also a standout in basketball and became the school’s alltime career scoring leader after he passed Ron Hammye (1,085), who held the record for 41 years. Basketball remains his love, but baseball his passion, and reaching the state tournament was another plus for his athletic resume. “It was a great year and a great way

to end my high school career,” said Luke, who will play basketball at Wayne State University. “It’s great for the baseball program and this really helped to establish it. It’s been really fun. It was different at first (when I transferred from TC), but we’ve made a lot of memories. We have had a lot of success not only in baseball but in basketball, too.” The club, led by fourth-year coach Ron Rightnowar, had it all – pitching, hitters

and a defense that gave the team a chance to compete at the highest level. However, it was defense that let them down as three critical errors led to six early runs by Summit Country Day, too much for a late Genoa rally to overcome in a seven-inning game. The team’s hitting was magnificent, featuring three players who hit .429 or better. Wojociechowski finished just ahead of Wolfe in batting average, .468 to .462 and Wojo hit five doubles and drove in 21 runs. Wolfe, who was honorable mention AllOhio, hit two home runs, drove in 27 runs and walked 19 times, all tops on the club. Kyle Edwards hit .429 with a double, 14 RBIs and walked 14 times to earn a .550 onbase percentage. Shortstop Cody Pickard, the team’s defensive ace, if you had to pick one, hit .333 with five doubles and 19 RBIs. The rest of the batting order featured Matt Aumiller (.329, 3 2B, 18 RBIs), Blake Traver (.320, 1 2B, 11 RBIs), Matt Bradfield (.313, 1 2B, 18 RBIs), Luke Rightnowar (.258, 1 2B, 10 RBIs) and Jarrod Brossia (.250, 2 2B, 10 RBIs). Traver, a standout in football, credits his teammates with maintaining focus and working hard throughout the offseason. “Everyone worked hard in the offseason and we were all on the same page during the season,” he said. “We were coached very well, too. It was a great experience – we were a close-knit family and we always fought to the end. It’s great to know that all of our hard work paid off.”

Eastwood third at state, again By Mark Griffin and J. Patrick Eaken sports@presspublications.com Eastwood boys track and field coach Brian Sabo felt the Eagles would have a very slim chance to win their first Division II state title since 2010, if everyone on his squad who qualified turned in career-best performances last weekend in Columbus. The Eagles had several outstanding performances, including first- and seventhplace finishes in the 800-meter run and the usual solid effort from senior Devin Snowden, but it wasn’t enough to garner the team title for Eastwood. Dayton Dunbar easily won the championship with 64 points, followed by Mentor Lake Catholic (40) and Eastwood (29). “I was very happy to finish third again,” Sabo said. “We were shooting for second because of how good Dunbar was. We knew it would be between us and Lake Catholic (for second). This was the second year in a row we were third and the fifth time in eight years (2008-2015) we were third or higher as a program.” Sabo said it was difficult to watch this year’s group of seniors take the track for the final time of their high school careers. “It was a pleasure to watch them compete one last time,” he said. “The worst part for me is never where we finish, but that the season is officially over and I can’t be around the athletes and coaching staff anymore. This group of athletes this year was so much like a family, it was an honor to coach them. One goal was that everyone who went to the state meet came back AllOhio, and we accomplished that. It was really awesome to have so many Eastwood fans, administration, alumni, parents and teammates there to support the guys.” Snowden was fifth in the 110 hurdles (14.52) after running a 14.67 in the prelims. He took third in the long jump (22 feet, 4 inches) and ran a leg on the seventh-place 4x400 relay and eighth-place 4x100 relay. The 4x400, which included seniors Tim Hoodlebrink and Noah Smith and freshman Isaac Emahiser, finished in 3:21.10 after running 3:23.01 in the prelims. The 4x100 relay, which included seniors Grant Geiser, Brennan Seifert, Snowden, and Jared Smith, crossed the line in 45.78. Jared Smith injured a hamstring in the final 75 meters. Hoodlebrink placed second in the 800 in 1:55.50, just behind Dunbar’s Brian Bell (1:54.53). “I was very happy with it,” Hoodlebrink said. “I knew I didn’t lose to someone who wasn’t really good. I worked really hard since I was a sophomore. I got better and better. I got third my junior year and second this year. I wish I would have went out in front earlier and went ahead of everyone. I feel I would have run a better time, but I was happy with the place.” Noah Smith took seventh in the 800 in

The Press Box 1:56.94. “It was definitely a feeling that I’ve never had before, doing that,” said Smith, who finished eighth in the 800 at last year’s regional meet. “I worked really hard freshman, sophomore and junior year to do something really special, and it paid off. No one really knew who I was, and I wanted to prove people wrong and impress people. I think I did that.” Smith credited Hoodlebrink for helping him get his mind right for the 800 finals. “Tim gave me a lot of confidence, just talking with me and training with me all four years,” Smith said. “That really helped me a lot. Obviously he’s an elite runner, and running with him gives you confidence. We wanted to make our coaches proud, and the community.” Eastwood’s 4x800 relay team of Noah Smith, sophomore Logan Baugher, junior Sam Church and Hoodlebrink took third place in 7:53.66. “That was cool,” Smith said. “Before the race coach Sabo said he wanted us all to attempt our PR’s, and we really went after it. I had an awesome first leg and we were right in it to the very end.” The Eagles’ 4x800 relay of Smith, Baugher, Hoodlebrink and Gabe Fredericks ran a slower time last June (7:55.79) but finished second. Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary (7:49.71) and Lake Catholic (7:50.27) took first and second, respectively, last Friday. “We didn’t do better than we did last year,” Smith said, “but the competition was great this year.”
