Medical care

Veterans voice concernsBy Larry LimpfNews [email protected]

About 20 veterans Tuesday attended what was billed as a listening session for U.S. Representative Bob Latta, R- Bowling Green, to hear their concerns about re-ceiving care through the Department of Veterans Affairs. The congressman told those attending the meeting at American Legion Post 28 in Perrysburg that the House the prior week had passed a bill, the Department of Veterans Affairs Management Accountability Act, which will make it easier for the secretary of the department to remove or demote se-nior employees. The bill was introduced in the House in February, but recent revelations about the deaths of veterans while awaiting care at a VA hospital in Arizona expedited its passage, Latta said, adding it appears ad-ministrators in Arizona were keeping more than one set of records to mask delays in treatment times. “It’s hard to believe we had to do this,” he said of the bill. Richard Elbridge, Perrysburg, an Air Force veteran, said he faced several diver-sions in trying to get basic eye care and has since opted to receive medical service in the private sector. Earl Moeller, a Navy veteran, said he’s generally had positive experiences at the VA clinic in Toledo but has been frustrated by “administrative decisions” while seek-ing screenings for possible asbestos expo-sure and tinnitus. He said the doctors and nurses who’ve treated him “have been very good” but many decisions made in regional offi ces can take years. He said he was told to ex-pect a wait of fi ve to 10 years for a hearing to appeal his disability application. Another veteran expressed frustration with getting an appointment for an eye exam, saying his call to a clinic in March wasn’t returned until the end of April, and one veteran complained of the bureaucracy he faced trying to get treatment for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

Latta has written to VA Secretary Eric Shinseki, asking for clarifi cation of regula-tions that cover when veterans can be sent to private health care providers. There are about 70,000 veterans in the 5th Congressional District, Latta said, Gary Nordahl, commander of Post 28, urged veterans to avail themselves of the services offered by American Legion and Veterans of Foreign War posts. He said his post offers transportation service to area VA clinics and lodging for veterans from out of town. “Here at Post 28 we do have men who need help,” he said. In testimony May 15 before the Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committee, Richard Griffi n, acting inspector general of the VA department, said a report of his offi ce’s in-vestigation of the deaths in Arizona should be complete in August. At his request, Secretary Shinseki placed the director and associate director of the Phoenix Health Care System on ad-ministrative leave while the investigation was being conducted. Latta also held sessions in Findlay and Defi ance.

Requests for zoning changes to proper-ties in Lake and Freedom townships are on the agenda of the Wood County Planning Commission meeting scheduled for June 3. In Lake Township, an application to re-zone about 3 acres from an R-2 residential classifi cation to a B-1 neighborhood busi-ness classifi cation has been submitted on behalf of the East Suburban Animal Clinic, 5032 Walbridge Rd. A new animal clinic is planned for the parcel, which is located on the southwest corner of Woodville and Pemberville roads. The parcel sits about one-half mile to the east of Owen Road.

Animal clinic, fertilizer plant on commission agenda The plan commission staff is recom-mending the commission submit a rec-ommendation for the change to the Lake Township trustees. “The proposed end use and desired zoning classifi cation do fi t in with what is existing in the immediate area,” the staff recommendation says. “There is an exist-ing animal clinic directly to the west of the subject parcel, which has operated as a legal non-conforming use for quite some time.” As with all commercial parcels that abut residentially zoned areas in the town-ship, the parcel would be subject to screen-ing and buffering requirements, the recom-mendation says. In the surrounding area, there is B-1 neighborhood business to the north, B-2

general commercial to the east and R-2 resi-dential to the south and west.

Fertilizer plant planned In Freedom Township, the Countyline Co-Op, E. Front Street, Pemberville, has fi led an application to rezone about 10.3 acres from the A-1 agricultural classifi ca-tion to M-1 industrial zoning. The cooperative would like to con-struct a fertilizer manufacturing facil-ity on the parcel that is on the east side of Pemberville Road and is adjacent to the northern corporation line of the Village of Pemberville. The commission staff is also recom-mending a thumbs up for this project be submitted by the commission to the town-ship trustees.

“Given the parcel’s location to other ar-eas zoned M-1 industrial and B-1 neighbor-hood commercial, as well as its proximity to the Village of Pemberville and utilities, the desired zoning does fi t,” the recommen-dation says. The cooperative would have to meet the township’s requirements for setbacks, parking, screening and buffering. The commission Tuesday will also re-view applications for the 2014 Community Development Block Grant program and prepare a list for approval by the county commissioners. A total of $181,000 in funding has been allocated to Wood County, which is expect-ed to be used for four projects. The board meeting starts at 5:30 p.m.

Homecoming returns to Veterans ParkBy Cynthia L. JacobySpecial to The Press

The incomplete Washington Street project won’t interfere with plans to bring the Genoa Homecoming back to the local park. Less than a week and half ago, the sec-tion of the main thoroughfare from Fourth to Sixth streets was stripped down to noth-ing but rocks and chunks of dirt, looking like a big crater in the center of town. By the time fest goers gather Friday, it will be incomplete but passable. “The curbs and gutters are in. They’re putting down the fi rst couple of courses of asphalt layers Thursday. That’ll be good enough for use and then they’ll put on the fi nal course after the event,” Village Administrator Kevin Gladden said. The new pavement will set the stage for the Genoa Homecoming Parade whose participants will proceed from Main Street to Fifth Street and then along Washington Street to the park entrance on Friday night. The $240,000 job concludes a three-year project to reconstruct portions of Washington Street to fi x residential drain-age problems and improve storm sewer fl ow during heavy rains. Bad weather put the Issue 2-funded project behind sched-ule last fall when it was originally sched-uled to be done. And conditions following one of the worst winters in recent memory weren’t much better. Contractors got a late start this spring and have been working fe-verishly to fi nish the job. “They ran into a couple of more prob-lems. They ran into some buried railroad ties and they broke a water line near the ice cream shop,” the administrator said. It’s been fi ve years since the Genoa Homecoming anchored its activities at Veterans Park. For the past three years, homecom-ing activities have taken place along a cordoned-off section of Main Street in the business district. Amusement rides found a home alongside Genoa Town Hall in the

parking lot. The homecoming committee took a two-year hiatus prior to that. Reverting back to the old set-up frees up more parking spaces for customers and centralizes all the fanfare in one spot, Gladden said.

This year, amusement rides will be set up farther back in the park. The beer tent is located behind the Big Dipper and local vendors are placed front and center at the homecoming’s entrance. “The neat thing is everything will be

right there in a confi ned space. You’ll be right there for the fi reworks and every-thing,” Gladden said. The fi reworks show takes place Saturday, capping off two days of events.

Lt. Commander Vidal Valentin, com-manding offi cer of navy Operational Support Center Toledo, warned local veter-ans and members of the East Toledo Club to be careful not to “dote” too much on our re-turning soldiers from Afghanistan for fear of creating another “victim” class. Valentin made his comments at the 81st annual fl ag raising and free breakfast provided by the club on Memorial Day to remember the sacrifi ce of our soldiers. This year’s event was held at the Christ Dunberger Post in Oregon. Valentin told the crowd of approxi-mately 60 to 70 that the primary mission of the soldier is “war fi ghting” to protect our country. He said a soldier should always be ready to answer the call. “You should not feel sorry for us. By doing so, you take away our pride and honor. Do not feel sorry for us. That’s what we do. It’s our calling. The soldier goes to war because that’s his job…And, that includes the possibility of being sacrifi ced on the altar of freedom.” Valentin said our country has come a long way from how we treated returning soldiers from Vietnam and how we treat our returning soldiers from our most re-cent wars. He said the despicable way we treated the Vietnam vet “left a scar on our society.” Since then, we have learned how to “separate the soldier from the politician and policy.” That’s good news. Saying, “Thanks for your service,” to a vet is welcome, but when we “dote” too much on our soldiers

The ceremony included the presenting of the colors by the Dunberger Post Honor Guard and the playing of Taps by Waite High School Junior Patrick Ridley, Jr. Ohio State Senator Edna Brown and State Representative Mike Sheehy attended and briefl y spoke. Sen. Brown said, While we can honor them (our fallen soldiers) we can’t repay them, we can only pay it forward.” Rep Sheehy, who served as a Lieutenant in the United States Army during the Vietnam era, said, “These are the things I think about today—duty, honor, country.”

Sherod Brown bill to help veterans U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown (D – Cleveland) has introduced a bill that aims to make it easier for veterans with war-related injuries to claim benefi ts. Brown made the announcement Wednesday during a stop in Northwood at VFW Post 2984. He said the Signifi cant Event Tracker Act would ensure that unit commanders document events the service members are exposed to which could later be connected to post traumatic stress, mild traumatic brain injuries or other injuries. The defense department would then furnish the event entries to the Department of Veterans Affairs to ensure treatment and

faster processing of claims. While the defense department currently records and reports signifi cant events for every military unit, the events are not transferred to the fi les of individual members of that unit, Brown said. “When veterans seek claims for war-related injuries like post traumatic stress and traumatic brain injury, the burden for establishing the connection should be on the Department of Defense, not on the veteran,” Brown said. He is a member of the Senate Veteran Affairs Committee.

Play (base) ball! The Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Center’s vintage base ball team – the Spiegel Grove Squires – will play their fi rst home game of the season Sunday, June 8 at 2 p.m. on the grounds of Spiegel Grove, Fremont. The team will take on the Forest City Base Ball Club of Chagrin Falls in a match of 1860s-style base ball. The event is free and open to the public, thanks to sponsorship from KF Construction & Excavating, LLC. The sport of base ball (two words in the 19th century) just was reaching the level of a “national pastime” in the late 1800s. Professional teams were organizing and rules of play were being standardized. Future home games will be held June 29, July 13, Aug. 10 and Sept. 7.

ProMedica Bay Park Hospital said last week it is notifying 594 patients of a breach of protected health information. The hospital said it discovered on April 2 that between April 1, 2013 and April 1, 2014, an employee accessed the records of patients that the employee was not directly treating without a valid business reason. An investigation found that the infor-mation the employee accessed may have included the names, date of birth, diagno-sis, hospital visit number, medical record number, attending physician, medications and other clinical information. The employee is no longer employed by the hospital. The hospital doesn’t believe the infor-mation accessed by the employee contained any fi nancial information including Social Security numbers or that the employee in-tended to retain any viewed information. The affected patients will receive in-dividual letters containing further details including a complimentary one-year mem-bership of identity theft protection services. The hospital said once it discovered the breach, ProMedica immediately deacti-vated the employee’s access to patient in-formation. To prevent further health information breaches, the hospital has implemented ad-ditional training for employees to ensure they understand and follow patient infor-mation access policies. Patients who do not receive letters and feel they may have been impacted can email [email protected].

Humane Society closes 24 of 30 cases Wood County Humane Society (WCHS) Humane Agent, D’Ann Gregory, who inves-tigates reports of neglect, cruelty and abuse from concerned citizens, social services, health departments, and other law enforce-ment agencies, handled 30 cases in April. Gregory resolved 24 of the cases; six are still pending further investigation. Of the 24 closed cases, three were fi led with “reason for concern,” three were deter-mined “unfounded,” one was fi led “unable to locate,” 10 resulted in the administering of additional education, fi ve resulted in referrals to other agencies, one resulted in owner surrender of an animal and one re-sulted in prosecution. Gregory also conducted 41 follow-ups to ongoing and/or closed cases during the month of April. During the same month, the WCHS took a total of 23 cats and 16 dogs into the shelter. According to Shelter Manager Erin McKibben, 10 of the cats were strays, seven were surrenders, two were abandonments and four were returns. Of the dogs, 11 were surrenders, two resulted from cruelty cases, and three were transfers from other shelters. The WCHS also adopted out 23 cats and 11 dogs dur-ing the month of April. The Wood County Humane Society, located in Bowling Green, is a full-service, no-kill shelter and investigates cruelty complaints in Wood County.

Remember the real heroesPatriotism transcended competition last Saturday when two 5th and 6th grade base-balls teams, St. Kateri Catholic Academy's Cardinals and the Genoa Tigers played at Genoa's Donna Hayes fi eld. Before the game, Kateri’s Coach Al Segura (left) passed out American fl ags to every player on both teams, gathered the boys in a circle, encouraged them to mix-up and bow their heads. Segura told them about Memorial Day and asked them all to play today with heart for all those who never came home. (Photo courtesy of Lisa Cousino-Hoersten)

Harbor View society holds celebration for Dr. Gary Cashin

The Harbor View Historical Society was to hold a Celebra-tion of Life and Memorial Picnic to honor Dr. Gary L. Cashin on Sunday, June 1 from 1-4 p.m. at the Harbor View Historical Society Museum at 2083 Autokee Street in Oregon.

Dr. Cashin, 70, died on February 24, 2014 after a three-year battle with various forms of cancer.

But during his life, Dr. Cashin left his mark working not only with the Harbor View Historical Society, but also as a scout leader with the Boy Scouts of America (1973-2014), a tu-tor with the Anthony Wayne School District, and as a business leader (1980-2014).

Born in Cleveland, Dr. Cashin and his family eventually settled in Whitehouse, Ohio in 1979. Over the years his service included four years in the United States Coast Guard (1966-70); Physical Development Specialist for the Sandusky School District (1971-73); Instructor at The State University of New York (SUNY) Cortland from 1973-79 before becoming a graduate assistant at the University of Toledo from 1979 until 1983. He earned his PhD in Education from the University of Toledo in 1983.

As a businessman, Dr. Cashin was president/CFO for MCM Precision Castings in Weston, Ohio. In 1994, under his leadership, MCM Precision Castings received the Toledo Area PIC Award. He also served on the Board of Directors for Sky Bank in Weston.

From 2005-14, Dr. Cashin was a tutor for the Anthony Wayne Public Schools in Math, Reading and Spelling for students in the fi rst, second, and third grades.

Dr. Cashin served on numerous local, state, and national committees in both education and business. In 1976, he was part of team that devel-oped and implemented a heart disease intervention program for children. The results were presented throughout the U.S. and in London, England as part of an International Health Symposium. The effort received the Central New York American Heart Association Community Service Award for Heart Health Education.

Dr. Cashin was also the co-editor of a bi-monthly newsletter “The Main Artery” that was distributed to educa-tors and health oriented institutions throughout the U.S. Dr. Cashin worked closely with Head Start programs and Special Education programs provid-ing curriculum, assessment, and class-room services.

In 2010, Dr. Cashin helped devel-op the Harbor View Historical Society Museum. As a local entrepreneur and philanthropist he assisted with the ar-chitectural and design of the museum located at 2183 Autokee St. in Oregon.

“It needs to be more about the youth, and they must be part of it,” he said of work with the museum. “The young people need to feel that the mu-seum belongs to them.”

Dr. Cashin gifted the entire grounds of the museum to the Harbor View Historical Society prior to his death last February.

“We can think of no better place to hold a tribute to Dr. Cashin than on the grounds of the Harbor View Historical Society Museum. Through his work, the museum has grown to include a library developed by the Boy Scouts, a place where area students can get tutoring on Wednesday nights, and a meeting place for the young people in the Oregon and Harbor View area.

“The museum refl ects not only Dr. Cashin’s generosity, but many ele-ments of his personal life and what he stood for. We are inviting everyone to attend this celebration to pay tribute and learn more about Dr. Cashin and what is sure to become part of his lega-cy,” said CWO4 Michael A. Joseph, co-founder of the Harbor View Historical Society.

A bill that would enact a two-year freeze on the state’s retail electric service law enacted in 2008 is headed to Gov. John Kasich’s desk after passing fi nal legislative votes last Wednesday. Senate Bill 310 modifi es the state’s re-newable energy and energy effi ciency stan-dards that included annual benchmarks re-quiring electric utilities to provide a portion of their supply from renewable sources. Supporters of the bill claim it will give legislators time to study the benchmarks – which some claimed are unachievable. Opponents argue it threatens investments in renewable energy. The House of Representatives voted to approve the bill, 55-42, and the Senate fol-lowed with a vote of concurrence to chang-es made by the House. The bill puts on hold the mandates ad-opted in 2008 that require utilities to derive 25 percent of the power they furnish from renewable sources by 2025. The mandates resume in 2017 at levels set for 2015 under current law.

Energy bill goes to Governor John Kasich’s desk During the two-year freeze, a commit-tee would study Ohio’s renewable energy, energy effi ciency and peak demand reduc-tion mandates as well as the risk of electri-cal grid congestion due to the anticipated retirement of coal-fi red generation capacity and other factors. The committee is to sub-mit a report to the legislature by Sept. 30, 2015 that includes a cost-benefi t analysis of the mandates. Sen. Randy Gardner, R- Bowling Green, opposed the bill. “I have always supported an ‘all-of-the-above’ energy strategy for Ohio, utiliz-ing traditional sources such as natural gas, oil, coal and nuclear energy in addition to other various forms of alternative en-ergy. I don’t believe that freezing current energy standards is the right action while the General Assembly studies this issue. Senate Bill 310 does not provide the kind of balanced process that is best for Ohio.” Sen. Edna Brown, D- Toledo, also vot-ed against it. In the House, Tim Brown, R-Bowling Green, and Chris Redfern, D- Catawba Island, voted against while Rex Damschroder, R- Fremont, supported it. Rob Nichols, a spokesman for the gov-

ernor’s offi ce, said Thursday he didn’t ex-pect the governor to receive the bill for a few days. The bill drew the interest of environ-mental groups as well as utilities and busi-ness organizations. Trish Demeter, of the Ohio Environmental Council, in an April 29 memo to Sen. William Seitz, chairman of the public utilities committee, writes that the state’s energy effi ciency standard is working. “Ohio’s four investor-owned electric utilities have spent $456 million on ef-fi ciency programs that have saved their customers $1.03 billion to date on their electric bills,” the memo says, noting the fi gures come from reports submitted annu-ally by the utilities to the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio. Supporters of SB 310 contended elec-tricity prices in Ohio have risen faster since 2008 than prices did nationwide, making the state less competitive in attracting busi-ness. Also, taxpayers provide substantial subsidies to renewable power producers – the wind power production tax credit in particular.

Eighteen-year-old Oregon resident Paul Cox III has a plan — to spend a life-time studying, working and traveling the Great Lakes.

So far, he has stayed on course.Cox, a senior at The Maritime Academy

of Toledo, is the fi rst cadet from the down-town Toledo school to be accepted into a maritime college or university. Cox plans to attend the Great Lakes Maritime Academy in Traverse City, Michigan in the fall.

When he graduates from college, he will have the rank of “Third Mate – Oceans and Great Lakes.”

“We are very proud of Paul Cox,” said Renee Marazon, president, The Maritime Academy of Toledo.

“He was part of our Career Tech Education Program for the past three years. We have had other cadets complete that training. Most have chosen to go to tra-ditional colleges or universities, military service, or seek employment in the mari-time industry.

“Paul is the fi rst to apply and be ac-cepted into at a maritime college or univer-sity where he can earn a degree specifi c to the maritime industry. He has a very excit-ing future ahead of him. We know he will do well.”

Cox says he will miss his fellow stu-dents and instructors in Toledo, who he says are like “family.” Yet, he is looking forward to advancing his education in the same in-dustry he got to study while in high school.

He is confi dent that the Maritime Academy of Toledo has prepared him well.

“We have the opportunity from the high school to go work on the Great Lakes — they give us the credentials and every-thing while we are there,” Cox said.

“To go to a college, you renew your cre-dentials while you’re there and basically you rank up from college because you’ve earned the stuff in a classroom. So, basi-cally, instead of being an able-bodied sea-man on the lower end of the totem pole you

graduate with a third mate’s license. So, you test much higher and the pay increases as well.”

Cox says one of the reasons he chooses to be involved in the industry is because of the economic benefi ts it brings to Toledo and the local economy.

Plus, it’s always been a passion of his. He was home-schooled until enrolling in The Maritime Academy of Toledo in the eighth grade. When he returns from col-lege, he wants to bring that passion for the industry back with him.

“I’ve always been interested in mari-time, and basically my essential plan is to sail for a good amount of years, and come back and teach, which I would say my end result would be,” Cox said.

He says working while traveling the Great Lakes has other advantages — such as the seasonal work, which will allow him some freedom.

“The ability to travel is the biggest thing, and the other thing I like about the industry is when you are home, you are home,” Cox said.

“Obviously, there are no calls coming from the offi ce or anything like that. When you are off for two weeks, you are off for two weeks. That’s nice. You only work for a little bit more than half of the year, ev-ery year, especially if you are on the Great Lakes because you have the time of the year (winter) when everything is closed, and

you can’t go anywhere in the boat. There are a lot of other perks to the industry.” Interacting with college cadets

On Wednesday, Cox was among a doz-en Maritime Academy of Toledo students and two instructors aboard the T/S State of Michigan who made the trip to its next port of call in Detroit. This is the fi rst time Maritime Academy of Toledo cadets were allowed to travel onboard the T/S State of Michigan and interact with Great Lakes Academy cadets.

T/S State of Michigan is the 224-foot former Navy submarine surveillance ship Persistent. The ship was originally launched in 1985 as the USNS Persistent (T-AGOS-6) and was commissioned as a Stalwart class Tactical Auxiliary General Ocean Surveillance Ship (TAGOS).

She was built as an ocean submarine surveillance vessel to tow highly sensitive sonar arrays to track Soviet submarines during the Cold War. In the 1990s, when the Soviet threat was no longer a con-cern, the Navy opted to decommission the TAGOS fl eet.

In the summer of 2002, the USNS Persistent underwent maintenance and additional overhaul to prepare her for her new freshwater home. In August 2002, the vessel’s name was changed to T/S State of Michigan by the Great Lakes Maritime Academy. The training ship is now used as a daily laboratory environment and is also used underway allowing cadets to put into practice the theory and skills they have learned prior to their commercial sea projects.

When Cox arrives at the Great Lakes Maritime Academy in the fall, he will get to know the T/S State of Michigan well.

“This ship that we just toured, it’s basi-cally a big part of their sea project, so when you get your sea days, is what you call it — you have to work so many days on the lakes or ocean before you get hired by a compa-ny, so we get that done in the four years that we are there,” Cox said. “And, we got a lot of other instruction that pertains to the industry. It’s just a big help, that’s for sure.”

Dare to Live

by Bryan Golden

Are you content or discontent with your life? It is possible to be content while striving to grow and improve. The key is appreciating where you are currently, along with what it is you do have. Those who are thankful for what they have, always have more than they need, whereas people who always want more, never feel they have enough. Being discontent with where you are now prevents you from fully appreciating all of the good things that are in your life. It’s easy to get trapped focusing on prob-lems along with that which you feel is lack-ing. This cycle of discontent taints your perception, causing your outlook to turn negative. On the other hand, being content with your current situation creates a positive en-ergy within you which emanates from your upbeat outlook. This force has the poten-tial to attract what you want and need. Your mind is a magnet. It draws to you what you think about. You grow up learn-ing to fi xate on what’s wrong in our life. You are exposed to non-stop examples of people worrying and complaining about all

Content or discontent? The choice is yours to make

of the problems causing discontent. It’s no surprise that you now automatically fi nd more issues to be unhappy with instead of those you are happy about. Another source of discontent is com-paring yourself to others. How you mea-sure up to what someone else has or their lifestyle is often a constant undercurrent. The examples chosen are typically people who you perceive as enjoying better cir-cumstances rather than those endlessly struggling. Endeavoring to mimic someone else’s life is not the path to contentment. If you match or surpass them, what have you ac-complished? Hoping to experience ful-fi llment as a result only leads to disap-pointment. Contentment is not achieved through comparisons.

Another pitfall is attempting to outrun discontent by continually searching for that magic situation which will be the answer to everything you desire. People caught in this scenario are constantly jumping from one geographic location to another or from one circumstance to another. They have little or no patience and are ready to bolt at the fi rst sign of adversity. These people will tell you they are simply searching for circumstances that will make them content. They are looking to and waiting for some future situation. These people are constantly on the move. Their frustration level increases as they encounter the same problems regard-less of where they go. They blame other people and circumstances for their misfor-tune. Both discontentment and content-ment are carried inside you. You take them wherever you go. There is no external es-cape from unhappiness. Change starts from within and then infl uences everything else. For this reason, two people can be living under the exact same conditions and yet one may be consistently happy while the

other is always miserable. What is your outlook? Are you con-tent or discontent? If you are in a constant state of unhappiness, you have the power to change. Start by cultivating an attitude of gratitude. Formulate a checklist of ev-erything you have to be grateful for. Go through this list at least once a day. Appreciating what you already have adjusts your mind into a positive state. This change is required before you can be-gin following a path which will take you in your desired direction. Life is a journey meant to be savored, not endured. Learning to be content with your cur-rent circumstances enables you to more ef-fectively strive for what you desire. You are in total control of your outlook and therefore your happiness.

Superintendentspush for support To the editor: Last fall, State Sen. Randy Gardner hosted a meeting at Penta Career Center for Northwest Ohio superin-tendents, treasurers and board members to discuss growing concerns about the nega-tive impact of recently passed state laws on school operations. The meeting featured not only local school leaders, but represen-tatives from all the major educational orga-nizations. During that meeting, concerns ranging from the new cumbersome teacher evalu-ation system to the Third Grade Reading Guarantee were discussed, along with pos-sible remedies. In addition, leaders asked that planned online assessments be de-layed until there was assurance that the infrastructure was ready for full implemen-tation. If you have a child in school who took one or more pilot tests this spring, you probably already know that there is still work to be done. Sen. Gardner made no promises on an eventual outcome, but he did pledge action. Some positive changes were regarding the credentialing of staff who serve stu-dents, retained under the provisions of the Third Grade Reading Guarantee as well as SB 229 which made common sense chang-es to the current teacher evaluation system. What makes SB 229 a rarity in American politics is that it was truly a bipartisan bill that was supported unanimously in the Ohio Senate. Sadly, the bill was overhauled in the Ohio House, and many ideas gener-ated by a broad spectrum of stakeholders were cast aside. On May 20, the Ohio Senate once again showed leadership under Education Chair Peggy Lehner and reinstated SB 229 into the Mid-Biennial Review bill, also known as HB 487. In addition, they made impor-tant alterations that are widely supported by educational leaders in the state of Ohio. Many of these changes are reasonable pro-visions that keep good programs or policies in place and make changes where needed. HB 487 now must go to a conference

committee, where the fate of these impor-tant and sensible changes hangs in the balance. We strongly urge members of the Ohio House to accept the bipartisan chang-es added by the Ohio Senate, and move them to Gov. Kasich’s desk for approval. Provisions will also give districts an option to use paper/pencil assessments for 2014-15 instead of online assessments. These changes will allow teachers and adminis-trators to focus more time where it belongs, and that is toward the boys and girls of Ohio. As superintendents in Northwest Ohio, we stand committed to improving teaching and learning, and we ask Ohioans to contact their representatives to support bipartisan legislation that will help us ac-complish our mission.

Citizen concerns To the editor: This is for Jerusalem Township trustees Joe Kiss, Dave Bench and Ron Sheahan. I live on Dyke Road in Reno Beach and had all of my branches placed by the road exactly how you asked them to be for grinding.

But when the workers came, they only grinded half of them. Can you tell me when you will be there to grind the other half, be-cause my grass is getting long and if I wait much longer, I will be unable to cut with the mower. I would also like to see if the town-ship can put garbage cans at the beach, so people will have somewhere to throw their trash and not just leave it there as litter. The creek bank is full of trash and tires and needs to be cleaned up. Will someone be doing that? Last but not least, I wish you would call the people that you hired to do the sewers and have them put them deeper in the ground or build up around them. They stick up over fi ve inches, and that is one of the reasons you will not plow our road which is fi ne, but, nobody else will either. We paid a lot of money to tie into sewers and I feel that it is your responsibility to make sure the job was done properly.Kim MeyerCurtice

Superb event To the editor: Our Oregon area fallen military heroes were remembered and hon-ored during the Memorial Day program held at the Veterans Memorial Garden at the entrance to Clay High School stadium. This was the sixth annual event spon-sored by the local chapter of Associates of Vietnam Veterans of America, Ohio. Jerry Eversman and his committee, along with help from several organizations, are to be commended for their efforts in organizing and carrying out this superb event. Wreaths were placed on the memorial monuments for WWII, Korean and Vietnam wars. Three military members who lost their lives within training situations were also honored. Mr. Eversman told stories describing the stories of several of these people who gave their lives for our country. I encourage everyone to visit the three newest monu-ments.Don CharltonOregon

The range of abuses and crimes com-mitted by banks seems to grow without end. As soon as one predatory practice fades from the headlines, another appears moments later. Remember bank payday loans, a kind of short-term lending with annual interest rates of up to 365 percent? Or how banks have steered customers into higher-cost subprime loans when they actually quali-fi ed for a regular loan? Or how banks have changed the order of customers’ debit card transactions in order to drain their ac-counts and make it seem like overdraft fees have been legitimately applied? How about mortgage fraud — falsify-ing mortgage applications, typically to ob-tain a larger loan than the borrower could handle? That practice contributed mightily to the housing crash that began seven years ago. Even if banking misconduct no longer shocks you, a recent report on how the in-

Federal government sees some banks as too big to sue

stitutions charged with investigating and prosecuting these crimes are essentially protecting the banks ought to rekindle the outrage. The Justice Department’s Inspector General’s Offi ce issued a report in March documenting the failure of government authorities to make prosecuting those re-sponsible for the massive mortgage fraud a major priority. Given that the housing crisis helped tank the U.S. economy and sent shock-waves around the world, the American people need to expect more from the Justice Department in general and the FBI in particular. Millions of us continue to suf-

fer the consequences of greed-driven and illegal banking practices that contributed to the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression while the bankers who started it all are getting off scot-free. According to the report, the Justice Department “did not uniformly ensure that mortgage fraud was prioritized at a level commensurate with its public state-ments. For example, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Criminal Investigative Division ranked mortgage fraud as the low-est ranked criminal threat in its lowest crime category.” The belief that large banks are too big and too complex to sue helps explain why senior banking executives from a range of fi nancial institutions aren’t being pros-ecuted. Clearly, this is an ominous sign for both our fi nancial system and our justice system. There are two justice systems in our nation — one for average people, who can go to prison, and a separate one for bank ex-ecutives. With extremely rare exceptions,

they never go to prison. In fact, just one banking executive is serving time — Kareem Serageldin. As The New York Times and ProPublica re-ported, prosecutors convicted Serageldin of hiding losses related to mortgage-backed securities. The incarceration of the Egypt-born banker, formerly with Credit Suisse, doesn’t constitute justice for the 4.9 mil-lion Americans who have lost their homes to foreclosure since 2007. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), joined by Representatives Elijah Cummings (D-MD) and Maxine Waters (D-CA) are seek-ing a meeting with the Justice Department to discuss the steps it will take to prosecute those responsible for mortgage fraud and the need to ensure those steps refl ect the seriousness of the losses faced by their con-stituents. Fran Teplitz serves as Green America’s director of social investing and policy.Distributed via OtherWords.org

“Trash to Treasure,” “Eclectic Entertainment,” “Lakeside Living” – these are just a few of the themes of the gar-dens that will be featured on the Oregon Jerusalem Historical Society’s fi rst-ever Lawn and Garden Tour. The tour, which will be held June 21 from 10 a.m.-4 p.m., will include 10 homes in the Oregon-Jerusalem area. Driving maps of featured homes will be avail-able beginning at 9:30 a.m. at the Historic Brandville School, located at 1133 Grasser St., Oregon (near Pickle and Wheeling). At the Brandville School, the historical society will also be selling raffl e tickets for a num-ber of themed baskets. In the event of rain, the tour will be held June 28. The idea for a summertime fundraiser came after historical society member Linda Wise and a friend attended a garden tour in a nearby community. “We have so many beautiful gardens and landscapes in our area, and so many talented gardeners and horticulturists, we thought this might be a great way to showcase them and to support the historical society’s mission too.” Organizers began by placing an ad in The Press seeking Oregon-area homeown-ers who might be interested in opening their gardens to the tour-goers to support the historical society, Wise said. “We got a

Lawn & garden tour to feature 10 homescouple of phone calls of people who signed on, and after that, word just spread among area gardeners. “We also had some people who didn’t have gardens of their own, but who suggest-ed friends or neighbors whom they felt had exceptional landscapes,” she added. After visiting several gardens, the soci-ety chose 10 homes to be featured, includ-ing the home of Bob and Sharon Supinski, at 1254 S. Wynn Rd., Oregon. Gardens bloom everywhere on the cou-ples acre of property. “I think visitors on the tour will fi nd our front yard looks nice, but our back yard is really a surprise treasure,” Sharon said. The lush acreage boasts plantings of unique trees, perennials, annuals for a splash of color and more than 420 varieties of hostas. The couple’s love of hostas took root some three decades ago after a visit to the Crosby Gardens (now Toledo Botanical Garden). “We saw this hosta garden that was just gorgeous,” Sharon recalled. “My husband said, ‘I sure wish I knew what those plants are.’” “Then we met Fred Arps, who at the time had a radio show on gardening in Napoleon,” she said. “He was so knowl-edgeable – he told us all about hostas, even wrote down the names of plants for us.” “He even invited us to his house,” Bob said. “We had a few beers and he showed us his gardens, which were just so impressive. “He gave us a clump of the Gold

Standard variety of hostas, which I brought it home, broke into 30 little pieces and planted them all over the yard,” Bob said. “We still have them coming up.” The couple was hooked. Over the years, their passion (and gardens) blossomed, and they discovered and added many new hos-tas to their landscape. “There are thousands of hosta variet-ies, though many of them look a lot alike,” Bob said. “We labeled everything in our garden so visitors can identify the various plants – it’s good for me too because I have trouble remembering what they all are.” The Supinskis agree that though main-taining their lush landscape is big job, re-quiring hours of trimming, weeding, fertil-izing and watering it’s a labor of love. “I’m slowing down some, but Sharon loves get-ting in there and digging,” he said. The couple’s efforts earned them hon-ors from the Toledo Botanical Garden for the Overall Best Garden in 2011, and for the Best Hosta Garden in 2013. A limited number of tickets are avail-able for the Lawn and Garden Tour. Tickets are $10 in advance and $12 the day of the tour. For tickets or more information, call Wise at 419-698-1045, Nancy Nopper at 419-698-9068, Betty Metz at 419-346-8979. Tickets are also available at GenoaBank, 3201 Navarre Ave., Oregon. All proceeds raised from the event will go into the historical society’s general fund, to support programs and the upkeep of the Brandville School.

Rare white bison African Safari Wildlife Park recently welcomed a unique animal to its collection – an extremely rare White Bison. “This is a very exciting event for us,” said Kelsey Keller, technical advisor for the park. “The opportunity we have to share this amazing creature with our guests is an honor beyond words.” Lakota legend tells the story of Wópe, the goddess of peace, who once appeared on Earth guised as a beautiful young wom-an frocked in white. Through her teach-ings, she brought prosperity to her people. Wópe rolled on the earth, transformed herself into a White Bison calf, and disap-peared. As such, the birth of a White Bison is heralded as an extraordinary event. The park’s bison is a 2-year-old male that arrived in February from a ranch lo-cated in the western United States. He is currently settling into his new home well. The odds of a White Bison birth are es-timated to be one in 10 million. There are multiple inherited traits that may cause a Bison’s fur to appear white, but the exact such gene or genes that this individual ex-presses in unknown. Bison, sometimes known as buffalo, are the largest land-dwelling mammals in North America. More than a dozen of the animals live in the park’s Drive-Thru Safari, the only such facility in the Midwest. African Safari Wildlife Park, at 267 S Lightner Rd., Port Clinton, is open daily through Nov. 30, 2014.

Peg + Cat = Fun WGTE Public Media invites families to the East Toledo Family Center, 1020 Varland Ave., Saturday, June 7 from 1-4 p.m. for an afternoon of educational, fun-fi lled, hands-on activities designed espe-cially for children 2-8 years-old.

Each episode of “Peg + Cat” follows the adorable, spirited Peg and her sidekick Cat as they embark on adventures and learn introductory math concepts and skills. SuperWhy!, the star of another popular WGTE and PBS kids’ show, will be on hand throughout the event to meet young fans. The event is free and open to the public. Reservations are not required.

When a successful season ends in defeat, it’s hard to look at the posi-tives. However, with the Lake Flyers, there are plenty of them. Lake’s magical season ended last week with a 3-2 loss to Huron in the Division III regional semifinals, a tough end to a fantas-tic run that saw the Flyers achieve multiple milestones Led by University of Michigan-bound Jayce Vancena and a special group of seniors, the Lake baseball team fin-ished with a school record 27 victories, a Northern Buckeye Conference title, their third league title in four years, a 19-game winning streak and a district champion-ship, their second in three years. They are accomplishments that make them one of the best teams Greg Wilker has coached in his 30 years in Millbury. “It probably won’t sink in for a week now,” Wilker said of the team’s accomplish-ments after the loss to Huron Thursday night. “We won 19 straight games, and that’s quite an accomplishment. To go 13-1 in our league, we’re proud of that. It’s a tough league. We were down 3-0 (against Huron), got it to 3-2 and we went down in battle. That’s how I’ll remember them. They bat-tled all year, and I’m very proud of them. “There’s quite a bit of pride in winning the district. Our goal is to win a league championship, win a sectional, a district and get 20 wins. If you accomplish three out of four, that’s a pretty good season, and we accomplished all four. When you make it to regionals, it’s quite an accomplish-ment.” Vancena led the team on the mound and at plate. He went 8-1 with a 0.71 ERA and hit .455 at the plate with 19 RBIs and 23 runs. Vancena, who threw two no-hit-ters this season, will go down as one of the greatest players in the program’s history. When he pitched, there were at times over a half dozen professional scouts with radar guns behind the backstop — a sign that he may have the option to be drafted and go professional instead of playing baseball in Ann Arbor, Michigan next year. In the loss to Huron at Elida, the Flyers outhit the Tigers 7-6, but had three errors to Huron’s two. Vancena finished with four of the Flyers’ seven hits, including the game’s only extra base hit — a double. Lake left fielder Aaron Witt had two singles and scored a run, but Huron’s Jack Hufnagle had two singles and scored two runs as the Tigers put up two runs in the top of the first and added the winning insurance run in the top of the fifth.

Lake Flyers win league title, fall in regional semi

Lake scored two runs in the bottom of the seventh and had a chance to put up more, but came up short. Kyle Kovach was the winning pitcher and Vancena took the loss. His five fellow seniors, catcher Nick Walsh (.310 BA, 19 RBI, 15 R), second base-man Cody Witt (.364, 22 RBI, 18 R, first baseman and designated hitter Anthony Pratt (.351, 2 HR, 25 RBI), right fielder Brad Ackerman and third baseman Joel Densic, accomplished so much in their four years at Lake that they played a significant role in helping to strengthen one of the state’s best programs. That will be their enduring legacy in Millbury. “They’re a tight-knit group,” Wilker said of the seniors. “I knew we they going to be pretty good. The seniors are a great group of kids that just really enjoyed really being around each other. I enjoyed that. We got the seniors together after the game and I told them, ‘Take that work ethic and just make me proud. They’re bright kids, they work hard, and they competed as hard as they could. They’re hurt, they’re disap-

pointed, (but) we had no regrets.” The other members of the starting line-up include center fielder Adam Duncan (.383, 17 RBI, 34 R, 21 SB), shortstop Connor Bowen (.365, 16 RBI, 26 R) and left fielder Aaron Witt (.304, 8 RBI, 9 R). Fourth outfielder Zak Greenlese provided produc-tion when called upon and Todd Walters, the No. 2 starter, went a perfect 7-0 with a 1.43 ERA on the mound. The Flyers’ four losses came against elite competition — Perrysburg and Wauseon, both of whom were state ranked at some point this season, along with Genoa, who finished second in the NBC, and Huron, a regional finalist. The list of wins is endless with three coming in the tournament. Notable wins include a victory over Wauseon, which came in a doubleheader, a win over Maumee, and close wins against Genoa (2-1) and Eastwood (12-10), games that late in the season ultimately clinched the league title. The win over Eastwood, which gave Lake the outright league title, saw Ackerman hit a three-run, walk-off home run in the

bottom of the eighth to complete the rally. Oh, and the tournament run was spe-cial, too. The sectional final, a 3-2 win over Liberty Center, saw the Flyers rally from a 2-0 deficit in the sixth inning to edge the Tigers. Vancena threw a three-hitter and Duncan went 2-for-4 with an RBI and Ackerman had a double in the victory. The district semifinal, an 11-1 win over Elmwood, saw Vancena throw a no-hitter. Bowen had three hits and four RBIs in the game, Cody Witt finished 3-for-4 and Vancena and Walsh each had three RBIs. The district final, a 6-4 win over Archbold, brought out all the dramatics as Cody Witt relieved Walters, the starter, in the sixth inning before getting out of a bas-es-loaded jam to maintain the lead. Aaron Witt had three hits and an RBI in the win over the Blue Streaks, Densic contributed two hits and Bowen and Duncan each had an RBI. “It was a special season with a great group of guys,” Wilker said. “I’m very proud of them.”

York Collegiate Baseball League. The NYCBL is a Major League Baseball-sponsored league that plays its games throughout Western New York.

“Our fi rst game is June 2,” Kohlhofer said.

“My assistant coach, Cameron Castro, tries to fi nd places for us to play over the summer to keep us active and get better. He found that (team) for me and some other guys on the team.”

Kohlhofer credited his dad, Mike, for his baseball career.

“My dad has gotten me this far, pushed me this far, and made me the player I am today,” he said.

“He had confi dence in me. I’ve put in a lot of work in the offseason and I have dreams to play at the next level, maybe in the minor leagues or the independent leagues.”

By Mark Griffi nPress Contributing [email protected]

Just in case he doesn’t make it to the major leagues, Lake graduate Ryan Kohlhofer has a solid backup plan.

Kohlhofer, a sophomore in-fi elder, is majoring in criminal justice at Defi ance College.

“My career goal with this degree is to go to the police acad-emy and be a cop for 5-8 years and, hopefully, join the SWAT team in Toledo or some other city,” Kohlhofer said.

“I’ll do that for a few years and then upgrade to the Drug Enforcement Agency. I’ve always enjoyed helping out in my com-munity.”

Kohlhofer, 19, the son of Mike and Deanna Kohlhofer, said the devastating tor-nado that wiped out Lake High School in June 2010 had “a big impact on me, seeing other athletes and the community coming out and helping in the aftermath.”

“Any opportunity I had, I would try to go help out with something that hap-pened,” Kohlhofer said. “The fl ood in Findlay was that same year and we had two or three buses go there and help clean out in the fl ood area. It just feels really good to help people in the community. It feels good to give back to other communi-ties.”

Kohlhofer has made an impact on the Defi ance baseball team. He was recently named honorable mention All-Heartland College Athletic Conference for the second year in a row.

The 5-foot-10, 160-pounder played mostly second base and shortstop in 2014, and he played the last fi ve games of the sea-son at third base after an injury to junior teammate Joel Musser.

“I like playing short,” Kohlhofer said. “I kind of grew up playing there and I’m more comfortable playing there. My best at-tributes fi t that position – my lateral move-ment, reading the ball off the bat well, good footwork.”

Kohlhofer started in left fi eld as a sophomore at Lake before moving to short-stop as a junior and senior. He was a fi rst-team All-Northern Buckeye Conference pick as a junior and an honorable mention all-conference selection as a senior.

Kohlhofer said he chose to play ball at Defi ance because, for starters, coach Derek Woodley said he would have an opportu-nity to play right away. The Yellow Jackets compete at the Division III level.

“Coach Woodley sat me down at the beginning of the (2013) season and said, ‘You have a good chance to see a lot of play-ing time,’ ” Kohlhofer said.

“When my time came, I proved that I could play and be an everyday player. I really enjoy it here. I like the small atmo-sphere.”

Kohlhofer, who batted fi rst or second in the order, started all 38 games this sea-son and hit .272 with nine doubles, three triples, 20 runs and 20 RBI. He added 12 walks (with 12 strikeouts) and went 8-for-11 in stolen bases.

“Obviously, the batting average was not where I wanted it,” Kohlhofer said. “Overall, from my freshman year to my sophomore year I was a lot better. I put the ball in play a lot more and hit the ball hard-er, and I didn’t strike out as many times. I felt more comfortable and more settled in after my freshman year. I knew what it was like to play at the college level.”

Defensively, Kohlhofer had 63 putouts and 97 assists to go with a .909 fi elding percentage. The Yellow Jackets’ coaches and players voted him the team’s defensive player of the year.

“When I found out, I was happy,” said Kohlhofer, who played through a shoulder injury early in the season. “I was glad my teammates thought I was the best defensive player. When there is a key defensive situa-tion where you need an out, they want the ball hit to me because they know I’ll make the play for them.”

Defi ance had a disappointing season in 2014, fi nishing 9-29 and 3-22 in the HCAC. Kohlhofer said the Yellow Jackets gradu-ated several senior pitchers off last year’s team and replaced them with freshmen and sophomores.

“Some of them weren’t ready for the (college) game yet,” Kohlhofer said. “The game here, even in Division III, is so much faster than in high school.”

Kohlhofer, who said he lives to play baseball - “I picked up a bat and ball a week after the season ended,” he said – isn’t taking the summer off. He will play for the Olean (N.Y.) Oilers of the New

Samantha Shirling and Krista Jennings have a lot in common.

For starters, they both attend Eastwood High School, they both play softball for coach Joe Wyant and they’re both infi eld-ers, technically.

Shirling, the Eagles’ senior pitcher, and Jennings, the starting junior second baseman, are also blind in their left eye and right eye, respectively.

Shirling is 21-2 with a 1.74 ERA af-ter Eastwood’s 6-3 win over Elmwood on Thursday, which clinched a Northern Buckeye Conference outright title. The 18-year-old, who pitches right-handed and bats lefty, was born with a lazy eye.

“I wore glasses to try to fi x that,” Shirling said. “When I was about 8 or 9 the eye doctor said it’s not getting any better, so I stopped wearing glasses. Now we just do everything to protect the good eye so I don’t go blind in that eye. I always wear a face mask, in case of some freak accident.”

Shirling recalled playing T-ball when she was just 4, and she tried other sports in elementary school. Softball stuck. As a young girl, and even now, Shirling said she’s never felt sorry for herself.

“When I was younger I switched to bat left-handed so it would be easier to see the ball,” she said. “I struggled with that, going through that switch. It was unfortunate. I had to put in a little more work to make it work. Now, I’m here and I’m happy. There were certain sports I couldn’t do, like con-tact activities. Softball was my favorite thing and I could still do that. As I’ve got-ten older, I’m so used to (being blind in one eye) and I’m fi ne with that.”

Shirling was a spot-starter on the mound last season, behind Whitney Foster, and compiled a 5-0 record. This season she has 152 strikeouts in 141 innings pitched, with just 11 walks (fi ve intentional).

“She has above average speed,” Wyant said. “She throws about 55 (mph) and has great control. She doesn’t walk people. Her best pitch is probably her drop-curve, and she has a good screwball.”

Due in large part to Shirling’s right arm, Eastwood fi nished the season 27-2 record (13-1 NBC). The Eagles lost to Maumee, 10-6, in the Division II district semifi nals. The Panthers were playing in the regional fi nals with a chance to advance to the state fi nal four on Saturday.

“With the exception of the Maumee game, everything’s gone great,” Shirling said. “Last year we had a winning season

and this season, being my fi rst to pitch (full time) and my last, I wanted to carry on the tradition of the program and keep it win-ning. I would really like to fi nish the season with a good win.”

The million dollar question begs to be asked: How in the world does Shirling ex-cel on the mound with one good eye?

“When I’m fi elding, there might be a line drive I might miss,” she said. “When you’re pitching and you’re that close to the batter, there’s always going to be a line drive you can’t get. It’s something I got used to. You can’t pity yourself. You have to put in a little more work with the angles you need to see, and you have to know what works for you and train like that.”

Proving yourselfShirling said she’s never felt the need

to prove herself. She and Jennings like the fact that, save for close friends, their fami-

lies and their coaches, no one really knows about their eye issues.

“It’s not like I’m fi ghting harder be-cause of that,” Shirling said. “I want to do well personally and I want my team to do well. A lot of people don’t know. That’s the goal, and we don’t want to use that as an excuse.”

Wyant said he’s amazed at the talent level displayed by Shirling and Jennings. He said you can’t tell they each have vision problems “from a distance,” before adding, “you defi nitely can’t tell by the way they play.

“They don’t make any complaints,” Wyant said. “Both play excellent defense and can hit the ball. Jennings has the sec-ond or third best average on our team, and Sam is the strongest girl at Eastwood. She lifts weights a lot, some as much as the boys do. She worked hard in the offseason to make herself stronger.”

Shirling, who has a 3.8 GPA, gave a verbal commitment to pitch at Capital University beginning next fall. She said her message to other people, especially young people, with disabilities such as hers is simply “you can’t give up.”

“With any condition, you have to work with it,” said Shirling, who plans to go into nursing. “Never give up and just keep working at it. When you’re older, you prob-ably won’t see it as a problem anymore. I don’t think anybody should give up, no matter their circumstances.”

Jennings played left fi eld last season but has transitioned well to second base. She said it’s easier to stay focused on the game when she plays the infi eld. The 5-foot-8 Jennings, who has been blind in her right eye since birth, also played on Eastwood’s basketball team last season.

“I have a growth on my optic nerve,” she said. “It’s not really my eye, necessar-ily. It’s more in my brain than in my eye. When I was younger, in fourth grade, I went to the Cleveland Clinic and they said there was no surgery (available) for me to get it out of there, but maybe in 15 years or so. I don’t really think about it, and I haven’t thought about fi xing it.”

She said the potential is there to take care of the growth down the road, but she doesn’t dwell on it.

“I don’t know if it’s really worth it,” she said. “I’ve been used to it for so long.”

Jennings, 17, has been playing sports “for as long as I can remember,” and she in-sisted that she’s never had any “why me?” moments because of her vision.

“I never thought about it in that way at all,” Jennings said. “When I was young-er and you got those little eye tests in ele-mentary school, I always cheated on those because if I didn’t pass, I would have to go somewhere else. I’ve just adapted and com-pensated for the other eye not being able to see. One eye is all I’ve ever known and all I’ve got. I have good peripheral vision. I’ve already passed my driver’s test.”

Jennings was hitting .404 with 27 RBI, a team-high 42 runs, six doubles, two home runs and eight steals prior to the Elmwood game. She had just 10 strikeouts in 99 at-bats.

“If she had two (perfect) eyes,” Wyant said, “she might be hitting 100 points high-er. She never makes any excuse.”

Jennings, who has a 3.6 GPA, has a message for others with disabilities.

“As long as you work at it and have that want and passion to do something, you can do it,” she said. “Anything is possible if you work hard and have that passion to do it.”

Clay sophomore wrestler Matt Stencel walked away from the Ohio state wrestling tournament on March 1 just a tad disap-pointed, but he’s since made amends.

Stencel lost to Perrysburg senior Rocco Caywood, 7-3, in the 182-pound Division I championship match in Columbus and, mentally, he’s not going to let that one go. Stencel, however, has literally been unbeat-able ever since.

Three weeks ago Stencel won both freestyle and Greco-Roman titles at the USA Wrestling Freestyle and Greco State Tournament at Western Brown High School in Cincinnati. Stencel went as a member of the Lake Erie Wrestling Club, coached by Troy McLaughlin, who coached Stencel along with former Eastwood standout Eric Cubberly.

“Matt was focused,” McLaughlin said. “He had goals in mind to be a state cham-pion in both styles and make the national team in both styles. He went out there and just crushed everybody he wrestled. In the fi nals he wrestled last year’s freestyle All-American, a kid who placed third at Fargo last year, and just ‘teched’ him. It wasn’t even close.”

The weekend before that tournament, Stencel competed in another freestyle/Greco tournament in Elyria and record-ed either a pin or technical fall in all 10 matches.

The 6-foot-1 Stencel, who has moved up to 195 pounds, presents a diffi cult test for opponents his size, McLaughlin said.

“His aggression going forward, he’s an in-your-face type of wrestler,” McLaughlin said. “He’s a big guy, but he wrestles like smaller guys. He’s constantly attacking on his feet and a lot of big guys can’t handle that. They’re used to more methodical (wrestling), where they hand fi ght and there is throwing involved. Most people he wrestles can’t handle that type of intensity.

“Matt has a great work ethic. He’s a lit-tle carefree and he’s not afraid to test the waters. He’ll go out there and test anybody. He’s going to be pretty special.”

Stencel dual winner in state freestyle, Greco events

Stencel’s performance at the USA tournament in Cincinnati qualifi ed him to compete for the Ohio National Team in July at the Fargo (N.D.) Nationals. McLaughlin said Stencel was impressive in both styles of wrestling in Cincinnati.

“He was one of the most dominant wrestlers in the tournament,” McLaughlin said. “He either teched or pinned every-body he wrestled. He’s just a phenom in freestyle and Greco. There’s nobody close to him. I predict he will be a national Cadet champion. He qualifi ed to wrestle on the national team in July, and he’ll train at Lakewood St. Edward for the Ohio team. I’ve coached that team the last three years, and we take 56 of the best wrestlers in Ohio and compete against the best from all around the country.”

The question is posed to Stencel: free-style or Greco-Roman?

“Greco,” he said. “It’s a lot easier. You don’t have worry about people touching your legs, and it’s not as intense. Just one less thing you have to defend. Greco is a lot of throwing and upper body. I like to do that; that just comes naturally to me. I know the moves I need to do. I’m also taller and I have lots of leverage, and my arms are longer and I can reach around and manipu-late my hands.”

Stencel said winning both titles in Cincinnati gave him equal satisfaction. The Greco-Roman portion of the tournament came fi rst.

“I wanted to get on the Fargo team,” Stencel said. “I made it for Greco when I won that (title), but it was important to

win freestyle so I could be on both teams. We will go to Fargo for a week, and that is known to be the hardest high school tour-nament in the country.”

The Fargo Nationals are July 20-26, and Stencel is already counting down the days. He will compete on the Cadet team at 195 pounds.

“I’m pretty excited,” said Stencel, who fi nished 40-6 with 26 pins for coach Ralph Cubberly’s Clay squad last winter. “I’m going there to win it. This will be my fi rst time going, and hopefully I’ll do well. I’m planning on wrestling in the Olympics when I get older.”

Stencel credited a lot of his passion for wrestling to his older brother, Nick, a senior at Clay. Nick, who fi nished 44-7 and placed third at 160 pounds at the state tournament in Columbus, will wrestle at Cleveland State beginning this fall.

“We’re always so competitive,” Matt said. “It always came down to who got the front seat when we were little. He’s getting older now and so am I, so we’ve matured about it. We’re probably even more compet-itive when we wrestle. He’s older and I’m bigger, and we just always go at it.”

Stencel often got extra practice time this past season after Ralph Cubberly and former Clay assistant and Genoa head coach Richard Wagner hooked Stencel up with Kurt Wolf, a former standout at Genoa. Wolf took seventh place at 171 pounds at the 2007 D-III state tournament.

“Kurt and I would practice for another hour after regular practice,” Stencel said. “I would do drills with him every day, and that always helped. Coach Cubberly helped me out with that. He is a really good coach and he realized he needed to bring some-body in here to wrestle with me, because I needed somebody better. Kurt started com-ing over at the beginning of the year and we bonded really well.”

Stencel said he will participate in the camp at Lakewood St. Edward the week before going to Fargo. The wrestlers, who will stay in volunteer families’ homes in Lakewood, will train for a week before heading west.

“I have a good feeling I’m going to take fi rst,” Stencel said. “If you’re not fi rst, you’re last.”

Just the BEST Deal goingon only what you need

Dave Jaeger

By Yaneek Smithand J. Patrick [email protected]

Unfortunately, things didn’t end like they were supposed to for the Clay softball team. Can you say “illegal pitch”? Clay, which was returning a number of key players from a team that won the Three Rivers Athletic Conference and was a regional finalist last season, ended its season in heartbreaking fashion last week, falling, 8-6, in eight innings to Elyria in the Division I regional semifinals. The unfortunate part of the game was the fact that the Eagles’ starting pitcher, Brooke Gallaher, was called five times for an illegal pitch, an unusual infraction that is rarely called. Three of the calls resulted in runs scoring for the Pioneers, including the go-ahead run for Elyria that put them up, 7-6, in the top of the eighth. Youth travel softball coach Michael “Mick” R. Foster, whose daughters played and coach at Eastwood, watched video of the game, and he believes it was not an il-legal pitch. Foster is friends with Gallaher’s family. “There’s no way an umpire should be allowed to determine the outcome of a game and this lady did that. I feel terrible for those players,” Foster said. Foster says unlike baseball, the foot does not have to be on the rubber when the pitch is made, just touching the ground. “It doesn’t need to remain on the rub-ber, as she pushes off as long as it stays in contact with the ground, it’s a legal pitch. If she kicked three feet off it’s still legal as long as her drag foot stays grounded,” Foster said. If the pitcher does cheat, softball coaches call it “crow hopping.” “The truth is there’s absolutely zero advantage to crow hopping,” Foster said. “In fact, it hurts the pitcher by doing it. The pitcher doesn’t gain one thing by crow hop-ping. It’s a rule that’s old and needs to be changed. “Brooke’s foot was extremely close to the ground and completely legal. There has to be a bit of clearance leaving the rubber.”

Dream shattered The expectations for Clay’s softball team, which was one of the most dominant the area had seen in recent years, were to advance to the fi nal four and possibly win the state title. But failing to attain that goal does nothing to tarnish to incredible season the Eagles had, one that saw them dominate their opponents while going 28-3 and 14-0 in the TRAC. During the run, Clay estab-lished itself as one of the top teams in the state, losing only to Anthony Wayne (5-3) and Clyde (9-8), both of which were part of doubleheader tilts. In fact, the other games in the doubleheader saw the Eagles defeat both team via the mercy rule. The top seed in the Fostoria district, the Eagles won the fi rst three games of the tournament by mer-cy rule, the last coming in a 17-4 defeat of Whitmer in the district fi nal. Coach Brenda Radabaugh, now in her 14th year, says there were reasons for the team’s success. “I told them (after the game) that I’m really proud of them,” said Radabaugh, who has a record of 291-98 at Clay, and 444-156 overall. “They hit the ball really well (all sea-son) — we were never no-hit, we were

never shutout. And we really improved defensively. We went from having three to four errors per game to having an error once every six to seven games. They changed to make themselves better hitters and worked on all the fundamentals and the little things. They all believed. “The team bought into everything we ask them to do. We had league games on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and the girls would come in and lift on Tuesday and Thursday mornings.”

Two-year run It’s been a great two-year run for the Eagles, one that saw them go a combined 54-7 (.885) while winning back-to-back league titles and advancing to regionals both times. Last year’s tournament run ended in a 4-1 Division I regional fi nal loss, also to Elyria. In fact, the last six years saw Clay win four league title, fi nish second twice and advance to regionals three times, the other coming in 2009 when the Eagles made it to the regional fi nal for the fi rst time in Radabaugh’s tenure. In the circle, Gallaher, a four-year starter, led the way, going 16-2 with a 2.33 ERA and 107 strikeouts in 103.2 innings of work. A second-team All-Ohio selection last season, Gallaher will pitch at Lourdes University next year. Fellow senior Danielle Lorenzen complemented Gallaher nicely this season, accumulating a 12-1 record with a 1.57 ERA and 61 strikeouts in 76 innings. Senior center fi elder Honnah Susor was one of the best players in Ohio this season, accumulating statistics nearly be-yond reason. Susor, who will play softball at Wright State University next year, fi n-ished with a .592 batting average, seven home runs, eight triples, 62 runs and 36 stolen bases, all fi rst on the team. She also

fi nished with 46 RBIs, second on the club, and did so out of the leadoff spot. Designated player Bekah Yenrick was second on the team with a .540 average and had 17 doubles to go with 45 RBIs. Five others, left fi elder Haley Dominique (.473, 54 RBIs, 34 SB), right fi elder Baleigh Bocoock (.467), third baseman Hayley Shiavone (.409), fi rst baseman Jamie Miller (.406) and second baseman Brooke Gyori (.402) hit over .400 for the season. Shortstop Harleigh Isbell was the rock on defense, fi elding the toughest position on the infi eld, and catcher Emily Sibbersen battled injuries during the season to stay on the fi eld and help provide consistency behind the plate. Courtney Quinlan, the fourth outfi elder, was effective as a pinch runner, fi lling in for Gallaher and Lorenzen when they reached base. As a team, Clay shattered two school records, fi nishing with the highest batting average, .423, (previous record was .382) and home runs, 22 (previous record was 22) in the program’s history. According to Bradabaugh, the six se-niors, Gallaher, Honnah Susor, Sibbersen, Lorenzen, Quinlan and Isbell, helped to serve as quality leaders for the younger players. “They provided great leadership and were unselfi sh,” Bradabaugh said. “They took on any role they could. I couldn’t ask for a better group. Sometimes on a team, dur-ing a season, you have little spats or things like that, but there were no issues, no quar-rels with this group. We’ll miss our seniors. We have six well-rounded individuals.” Susor, who earned honorable mention All-Ohio status last year, says playing with this group was like no other softball experi-ence. “This year, we came to practice and

worked hard and focused on the little things,” Susor said. “We came ready to play. We thought we would go farther (in the tournament) and we focused in practice. We were all determined to succeed (and) we all get along. We love showing our pride, we love showing our school off. It’s an amazing experience. I love (these girls). I wouldn’t trade this for anything.”

nspirational essage of the eek: Putting Gratitude in Our Lives

www.firststjohn.com

We all know how nice it is to be thanked for some small

kindness or good deed which we have done for another.

But perhaps more important than the warm feeling that

we get when someone expresses their gratitude to us, is

the positive outlook that gratitude usually engenders in

the person who is grateful. That is, the feeling of being

grateful helps to keep us focused on the positive. Instead

of harping on how bad things are, or regretting the past,

gratitude looks for the positive aspect and the silver

lining. And although we all may occasionally feel sorry for

ourselves, we can alleviate some of these feelings by

getting into the habit of reminding ourselves of how much

we have to be thankful for. Our good health, having

friends and family who care about us, and even

something as mundane as going to work, are truly things

for which we ought to be grateful. We should spend

some time each day counting our blessings. We might

be pleasantly surprised to find that this exercise itself will

make our lives better. Give thanks to the Lord, for He is

good; His love endures forever. N.I.V. 1 Chronicles

Clay sophomore Haley Hess crosses the fi nish line ahead of teammate Erin Gy-urke to win the 1,600 meter run with a time of 5:07.34 during the Three Riv-ers Athletic Conference track and fi eld cham-pionships at Clay Memo-rial Stadi-um. (Press photo by Scott Grau)

BoxBoxClay’s Haley Hess named league’s top female athlete Clay sophomore runner Haley Hess was named the Three Rivers Athletic Conference’s top female athlete after win-ning two individual championships at the league meet. Hess won the 1,600, fi nishing in 5:07.34 to outdistance runner-up Erin Gyurke, a senior from Clay, who fi nished in 5:08.42. Gyurke did win the 3,200, fi nishing in 11:17.25 to defeat runner-up Emily Stahl (11:35.07), a junior from Findlay. Haley Hess was part of the 4x800 meter relay team that won a TRAC championship with a time of 9:47.21, less than three sec-onds short of the league record set last year by a Clay team. On the team this year were Haley Hess, sophomore Hannah Hess, Gyurke, and freshman Sydney Hess. Last year’s team included Hannah and Haley Hess, Gyurke, and Emilie Roman, now graduated. This year, that team defeated the runner-up team from Fremont Ross by over 17 seconds. At the Division I district meet, the Clay team was fourth out of 13 teams scor-ing. The Eagles accumulated 78.4 points to fi nish behind Whitmer (102.9), Perrysburg (101.2), and Notre Dame (98). At the district, the 4x800 team of Gyurke, Sydney Hess, Haley Hess and Hannah Hess fi nished second in 9:47.77 to advance to regionals last week in Amherst. Clay junior Grace Winckowski won two district championships, including in the 100 hurdles (15.63) to defeat Notre Dame senior Alison Connelly (15.83) by one-fi fth of a second. Winckowski also won the 300 hur-dles, fi nishing in 45.97 to defeat Sylvania Southview junior Taylor Fitchpatrick (47.1) by nearly two seconds. Gyurke fi nished second in the 1,600 (4:59.62), losing by less than half a sec-ond to Perrysburg senior Courtney Clody (4:59.25). The district record in that event is held by Clay distance runner Jodi Harrington (4:59.11), who set it in 1999, but both Gyurke and Clody came scarily close to breaking it.Haley Hess was third in the 1,600, fi nishing in 5:14.5, and both Gyurke and Haley Hess advanced to regionals. Haley Hess also advanced after fi nish-ing third in the 800 (2:23.38). Gyurke was second (11:31.84) in the 3,200, this time losing to Perrysburg senior (11:21.56) by over 10 seconds, but Gyurke did advance. Clay sophomore Kayla Dickerson ad-vanced in the pole vault after she fi nished fourth at districts with a jump of nine feet, three inches. On the boys side, Clay sophomore Anthony Miranda advanced to the regional meet in the 400, fi nishing fourth in 51.65 at the district meet.

New Stritch cage coachCardinal Stritch Catholic High School

has found its new head coach for the girls basketball program.

Cathy Hanek, a former college basket-ball player and coach, informed school offi -cials that she will be accepting the position for next season. The Youngstown native has coaching experience at both the college and high school level.

“This is a fantastic opportunity for our girls’ basketball program. We are excited Cathy is joining the Cardinal Family” said Athletic Director Craig Meinzer. “Cathy’s passion, knowledge, and coaching back-ground will be a tremendous addition to our athletic community here at Stritch.”

Hanek was most recently the head wo-mens’ coach for Valley City State University in Valley City, North Dakota. During her tenure she spent time recruiting and de-veloping student athletes in addition to overseeing the operations of the basketball program. She also was involved with an-nual fundraising efforts for the school and coordinated community outreach projects.

Prior to Valley City State, Hanek was the head coach for Miles Community College in Miles City, Montana.

“Cathy is a great addition to our Stritch family. Her experience is incredibly valu-able and her background helps her appreci-ate that we are a family of faith, knowledge, and strength in everything we do,” said Rev. Eric Schild, President of St. Kateri Catholic Schools.

Sprinski to ‘jump’ at Tiffi n Woodmore senior Dan Sprinski has offi cially signed with Tiffi n University to continue his athleticism in track. Sprinski has done all the jumping events from his middle school years all the way to his senior year, and he has been very successful. He broke the middle school long jump record as an eighth grader and has continued breaking records into his

high school career. At the Northern Buckeye Conference championships his senior year, Sprinski fi nished second in the high jump with a leap of six feet, one inch, defeating Eastwood senior Steven Bradley (6-1) on a least jumps tiebreaker. Genoa sophomore Kyle Bihn (6-2) won the championship. In the long jump, Sprinski was fourth, reaching 19-9¾ to place behind Eastwood

junior Devin Snowden (21-3), Eastwood se-nior Jake Hoodlebrink (20-7¾), and Fostoria junior Rayshon Martin (21-1½). Sprinski was also a member of the Wildcats’ 4x100 relay team, which did not place. Sprinski has been a hard worker and has always shown determination and pas-sion for his events. “Dan shows a lot of natural talent and that is supplemented by his hard work and the effort he puts in,” said track coach Brian Ryman. Ryman also said Sprinski has been more consistent and confi dent, which has also been aiding him. He wants to clear six feet, fi ve inches in the high jump and in the long jump 22-5, and with his work ethic, he should have no problem doing so. He goes to Tiffi n twice a week to train at the indoor facility, and he also goes to Eastwood to train with their coaches and athletes. Sprinski is excited to attend Tiffi n University. All his hard work that he has put in has paid off and he now gets to do what he loves the most. “I want to experience college as an ath-lete and achieve a great education,” said Sprinski. “The coaches there are great and they are going to make this a great experi-ence for me.” He is going into college majoring in business and plans on competing all four years as a college track athlete in both the spring and winter seasons.

A new fl agpole bearing a special American fl ag stands over the athletic fi elds at Cardinal Stritch Catholic High School, thanks to the efforts of River East Mother Teresa Council 14344, Knights of Columbus. The fl agpole, donated by the Diocese of Toledo, was removed from the former Holy Rosary Parish in East Toledo March 31, cleaned and refurbished, and a mount-ing base was fabricated. Last fall, when the fl agpole project was in the planning stages, the Knights discussed how they’d need to procure an American fl ag for the pole. Council Treasurer Dennis Adkins mentioned his son, PFC Jordan Adkins was serving in the Army in Quater with B-Troop 1-19 Cavalry. Pvt. Adkins agreed to take a fl ag with him when he returned to Quater af-ter Thanksgiving and to fl y it over the base, As Sayliyah. He then shipped it back to the Knights of Columbus in April. On April 9, Knights members assem-bled the fl agpole’s pulleys and ropes – in Stritch’s colors, red and black – and gave the fl ag, which arrived just the day before, a test run up the pole. A ceremony was held April 26, dur-ing which the Knights dedicated the fl ag-pole and fl ag in memory of Jacob Karamol, who a 21 years old, was killed in a hunting accident last December. Karamol, the son of the Stritch head custodian, was known for his dedication to helping whenever and wherever needed at Stritch, includ-ing helping his father maintain the athletic fi elds. A plaque installed at the base of the fl agpole bears Karamol’s name and the re-membrance, “Always there, willing to help others.” “May this fl agpole, fl ag and plaque for-ever honor and remember Jacob Karamol,

Flagpole dedicated at Cardinal Stritch

who spent his time assisting and serving others at the school,” the Knights said in a proclamation. “May it also stand as a sym-bol of remembrance for all our veterans, Knights of Columbus members, Cardinal Stritch students, alumni, teachers, facul-ty and staff who have gone before us and those who come here in the future to cel-ebrate and watch our beloved student ath-letes.” The ceremony included veterans’ and Knights of Columbus color guards, a bless-ing, a fl ag-raising ceremony after which the fl ag was immediately lowered to half staff and the dedication ceremony, followed by a noon baseball game.
