Residents of Middleport will be deciding on the office of Mayor, along with two council seats in the November General Election. For the position of Middleport Mayor, those filing petitions were current mayor Sandy Iannarelli, Fred Hoffman, and Joshua Ashley. For the two council seats available, four individuals filed petitions. Filing for the council seats were incumbent Ben Reed, incumbent Susan Page, former councilman Douglas Dixon, and James Buskirk. Reed and Page are both currently on council after having been appointed to their respective seats. Given the population of Middleport, the filing deadline for the November election for offices in the village is different than the other villages in Meigs County. Filing deadline for offices in Pomeroy, Racine, Rutland and Syracuse is Aug. 7. Sarah Hawley is the managing editor of The Daily Sentinel.

Southern High School Valedictorian Marissa Brooker and Salutatorian Mallory Johnson took time during their addresses during Saturday evening’s Baccalaureate and Commencement Exercises to look back at their time at Southern and look forward to the future. “For this speech, I was asked to reflect on my time spent here, which has been seven hours a day, five days a week, nine months a year, for 13 years. That’s a very long time,” said Johnson. Johnson then looked at what the Class of 2019 has learned during all of that time at Southern Local. “Sure, we learned how to read, write, do mathematics, science, and social studies, but I think school has taught us more than just what the state requires,” said Johnson. “For example, tying your shoes was not on the curriculum, but the teachers taught some of us that anyway. … Lessons evolved as we got older, such as how to Courtesy photos Southern High School graduates gather for a photo before entering the gymnasium for Saturday evening’s commencement ceremony.

Trump in Japan: Pomp and tense circumstance By Jill Colvin and Darlene Superville Associated Press TOKYO — All the pomp and pageantry in the world couldn’t paper over the tensions between President Donald Trump and Japan’s Shinzo Abe on two of their most pressing issues: North Korea and trade. The president and prime minister tried mightily to minimize their differences during Trump’s four-day state visit to Tokyo, while playing up their close personal friendship and their countries’ long-held ties. But tension abounded, with Trump on Monday brushing off the significance of North Korean short-range missile tests that have rattled Japan and reasserting his threats to hit Abe with potentially devastating auto import tariffs. Asked if he was bothered by the missile tests, Trump said: “No, I’m not. I am personally not.” Abe, in contrast, said the missile tests were “of great regret.” The conflict demonstrates the limits of Abe’s long-term strategy Evan Vucci | AP Japan’s Emperor Naruhito, right, looks on as President Donald Trump speaks Monday during a State Banquet at the Imperial Palace in Tokyo. of showering Trump with affection in hopes of extracting benefits. Trump appeared uninterested in concessions despite a program tailormade for the president that included a showy visit with the new Japanese emperor, a round of golf and prime seats at a sumo tournament where Trump got to present a “President’s Cup” to the winner, Trump also demonstrated again that he is willing turn his back on long-held norms as he assailed Joe Biden, the 2020 Democratic hopeful whom North Korean leader Kim Jon Un recently criticized as hav- AIM Media Midwest Operating, LLC (USPS 436-840) Telephone: 740-992-2155 Publishes every Sunday and Tuesday through Friday.

Security Council resolutions, as both Abe and Trump’s own national security adviser, John Bolton, had stated. “My people think it could have been a violation,” said Trump. “I view it differently. I view it as a man — perhaps he wants to get attention and perhaps not. Who knows?” Japan has long voiced concern about shortrange missiles because of the threat they pose to its security. Kim’s decision to lift the pause in ballistic missile launches that began in late 2017 alarmed North Korea’s neighbors. Most analysts believe the missiles were ballistic missiles, which are not allowed under U.N. resolutions. Trump’s visit to Japan was designed to highlight the U.S.-Japan alliance and showcase the warm relations between the two leaders. Trump said he and Abe deliberated over trade, Iran and more during hours of talks at Akasaka Palace. Trump was invited to Japan to be the first world leader to meet the country’s new emperor. But despite being far from Washington, Trump didn’t hold back in his criticism of Biden, telling the world he agreed with the North Korean leader’s assessment and declaring himself “not a fan.” “Kim Jong Un made a statement that Joe Biden is a low-IQ individual,” Trump said. “He probably is, based on his record. I think I agree with him on that.” Pressed on whether he was supporting a dictator over a former U.S. vice president, Trump recited a host of complaints about the Obama-Biden administration. U.S. officeholders have in the past generally avoided engaging in politics while on foreign soil, hewing to the adage that politics stops at the water’s edge. But Trump’s sharp attack on Biden, through his declaration of agreement with Kim, cast aside that tradition. Biden, during a recent campaign event, accused Trump of cozying up to “dictators and tyrants” like Kim. Trump continues to hold out hope of getting Kim to agree to give up his nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles, even though the two summits he’s had with the North Korean leader have produced no concrete pledge to denuclearize the Korean peninsula. Trump nonetheless praised Kim, calling him a “smart man” who was intent on making his country better. “All I know is there have been no nuclear tests, no ballistic missiles going out, no long-range missiles going out, and I think that someday we’ll have a deal,” Trump said, adding that he is in “no rush.” Trump is correct that North Korea has not recently tested a longrange missile that could reach the U.S. But this month, North Korea fired off a series of short-range missiles.

So that’s why I think when we look back we should have Southern Pride.” Johnson concluded with a quote from radio host Art Linkletter, who said, “Things turn out best for the people who make the best of the way things turn out.” For Brooker, it was about looking forward in her speech. But before that, the valedictorian took time to thank those who have helped her along the way. “I would like to thank all of the staff at Southern High School for pushing me to be the best student that I can be. I would especially like to thank Ms. Ohlinger, Mrs. Pickens, Mr. Buckley and Miss Davis for helping me find my love of science and math,” said Brooker. She also thanked Principal Daniel Otto, Student Council members, and her classmates. “You all are the best classmates that I could ever ask for. I have been so blessed to have been able to grow up with all of you. I think I can speak for all of you when I say that I am so thankful for the bond that we have. I know I wouldn’t be able to get that kind of connection anywhere else and it is one of my favorite parts of going to Southern,” said Brooker. “I would like to thank the three most important things in my life: my faith, my family and friends. I would be nowhere without the strength that God has given me and the support that my family and friends have given me.” said Brooker. Brooker added, “I’d like to thank my parents for telling me one thing when I was growing up: that I can do anything, if I work hard enough. They have always believed in me. … They always encouraged me. They didn’t tell me, ‘oh it will be easy’, they told me it would be hard, but you can do it. I do not think that I would be here if I didn’t have that mindset.” As Brooker noted, her strengths are more math and science than speaking and writing so she included so numbers in her speech. “So the Earth is 4.6 billion years old. That number is so big that it is hard to even think about. … We are going to imagine that the history of the Earth is condensed down into a day (24 hours),” said Brooker. Continuing with the example, Brooker said, “The day starts at midnight and finally at 4 a.m., the first cell appears. Now we jump all the way forward to 8:30 p.m. and the first plants appear in the ocean. At 10:24 p.m., the first animals appear on land and finally, at 11:58 p.m., two minutes before the day is over, humans appear on the Earth.” “If you think about one lifetime, about 70 years we’ll say, it accounts for 0.000000267 percent of Earth’s history. That equals 20 milliseconds on our scale. The blink of an eye occurs in about 300 milliseconds,” said Brooker. She added, “So for people who like to say that life happens in a blink of an eye — it’s faster. This statistic just blew y mind and it really made me think about the limited time that we have here on Earth.” When looking forward, Brooker said she made a list of the five most important things and the five things she spent the most time on and encouraged those in attendance to do the same. “Do your two lists match up? Because mine sure didn’t. I was spending too much time on things that didn’t really matter … That was a big eye opener for me and it showed me that I needed to start prioritizing the things that meant most to me,” said Brooker. Brooker concluded, “Time is one of the most valuable things that God gives us and I encourage all of you to not waste it being inside you comfort zone, saying, “it’s good enough”, and not chasing your dreams. Start doing what you want and start doing it now. Don’t wait until tomorrow because just remember, life happens faster than a blink of an eye.” National Honor Society members for the class of 2019 are Peyton Anderson, Austin Arnold, Marissa Brooker, David Dunfee, Baylee Grueser, Emily Hall, Mallory Johnson, Madison Lisle, Kathryn Matson, and Alex VanMeter.

Germany, and despite SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea on Monday called U.S. National Security Adviser John Bolton a “war monger” and “human defect” after he described its recent tests of short-range missiles as a violation of U.N. Security Council resolutions. The statement by an unidentified North Korean Foreign Ministry spokesperson came as President Donald Trump visited Japan for meetings with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe at which the nuclear standoff with North Korea was expected to be high on the agenda. Bolton told reporters in Tokyo on Saturday that there was “no doubt” that North Korea’s recent missile launches violated U.N. resolutions, and that sanctions against the North must be kept in place. Trump later downplayed the missile tests, tweeting, “North Korea fired off some small weapons, which disturbed some of my people, and others, but not me.” North Korea tested short-range ballistic missiles on May 4 and 9, ending a pause in launches that began in late 2017. The tests were seen as a way for North Korea to pressure Washington to soften its stance on easing sanctions against it without actually causing negotiations to collapse. In the statement carried by the North’s Korean Central News Agency, the North Korean spokesperson said Levy Donation to Trump’s inaugural under scrutiny From page 1 By Richard Lardner Kamil Zihnioglu | AP French President Emmanuel Macron smiles to a supporter Sunday, after voting in the European parliamentary elections in Le Touquet, northern France. France is looking at an epic battle between pro-EU centrist President Emmanuel Macron and anti-immigration, farright flagbearer Marine Le Pen in the European Parliament vote, a duel over Europe’s basic values. EU elections: Gutted center, high turnout, rising right BRUSSELS (AP) — The European Union prides itself on being a brilliant mosaic of nations, but its parliamentary elections produced a hodgepodge of sometimes contradictory results that complicates the future of both the 28-country EU and the domestic politics of several members. While issues like climate change, immigration and global trade dominated the campaign, voters’ motivations were plainly parochial. And the domestic effect of the continent-wide elections was there for all to see , including at least one government coming apart at the seams. Voters in that precinct voted in favor of the levy, 158 to 144. The majority of the district is located in Athens County, where voters defeated the levy 1026 for to 1039 against. The 14 vote margin in Meigs County, along with the 13 vote margin in Athens County, currently has the levy passing by a total of 1,184 for the levy to 1,183 against the levy. The slim margin prompts a recount of votes in the matter. The levy, if approved, calls for a one percent income tax on earned income of individuals residing the school district. This includes residents in a portion of Meigs, Athens and Vinton counties. The income tax would be for a period of five years beginning Jan. 1, 2020 for the current expenses of the district. Previous levy attempts for the district, ranging from 1.5 percent to 1 percent had all been rejected by voters. The recent levy history is as follows: November 2016 — 1.5 percent income tax levy failed by approximately 600 votes May 2017 — 1.5 percent income tax levy failed by approximately 400 votes November 2017 — 1.25 percent income tax levy failed by approximately 550 votes May 2018 — 1 percent income tax levy failed by approximately 60 votes November 2018 — 1 percent income tax levy failed by approximately 350 votes The November 2016 levy attempt was the first operating levy put before voters since 1991 for the district.

North Korea has never recognized the U.N. Security Council resolutions, which it views as denying its “rights to existence and development of a sovereign state,” the statement said. “If any object is launched, it is bound to fly in trajectory,” the statement said. It said a demand that North Korea ban all launches that use ballistic technology regardless of the range is the same as asking it to relinquish its right to self-defense. The spokesperson said Bolton was an “ignorant” hard-liner who throughout different U.S. administrations pushed provocative policies against North Korea including endorsements of preemptive strikes and regime change. The spokesperson also said that Bolton’s “hammer act” was responsible for the collapse of a major nuclear deal came into office pledging to upend.

The deal broke down in 2002 after U.S. intelligence agencies said North Korea was continuing its pursuit of bombs with a secret uranium enrichment program. “It will be fit to call Bolton not a security adviser striving for security but a securitydestroying adviser who is wrecking peace and security,” the spokesperson said. “It is not at all strange that perverse words always come out from the mouth of a structurally defective guy, and such a human defect deserves an earlier vanishing.” Experts say the weapons North Korea tested this month are new solid-fuel missiles that are potentially nuclear capable and would strengthen the North’s ability to strike targets throughout South Korea. South Korea has expressed concern that the launches may run against the spirit of an inter-Korean military agreement reached last year to reduce tensions, but has been eager to downplay the significance of the tests as it tries to keep a positive atmosphere for dialogue alive. South Korea’s presidential office and military have refused to call the launches outright provocations, and have yet to confirm that the missiles were ballistic weapons, although most experts say they clearly were. “There’s no way for us to know why National Security Adviser Bolton made such comments,” said a South Korean presidential official, who asked not to be named during a background briefing of reporters on Monday. “There’s no change in our official stance that the South Korean and U.S. militaries under coordination are continuing to analyze the missiles.” potential investors, including the Middle Eastern country of Qatar. Cohen is now serving a three-year prison sentence for tax evasion, lying to Congress and campaign finance violations. Haney and his attorney did not respond to interview requests. Prosecutors also are examining whether foreigners unlawfully contributed to the committee. Federal prosecutors in Manhattan issued a subpoena last year seeking a wide range of financial records from the committee, including any “communications regarding or relating to the possibility of donations by foreign nationals.” The inaugural committee has denied wrongdoing and said its funds were fully accounted for. Haney, 79, has previously faced accusations that his political gift giving is aimed at cultivating influence. An investigation by House Republicans in the late 1990s alleged that Haney’s money and his political pull with senior Clinton administration officials helped him to get the Federal Communications Commission to move into an office building that he had a major stake in. Haney denied any wrongdoing and the Justice Department declined to pursue the matter. But he was charged in 1999 with funneling about $100,000 in illegal contributions to President Bill Clinton, Vice President Al Gore and other politicians, then acquitted. A federal prosecutor described Haney as a sophisticated fundraiser who hoped to impress potential business clients with his access to elected officials, like Clinton and Gore. Biographer dies at 78 a day after suffering a stroke. Morris’ career took off with the success of his first book, “The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt,” which won the Pulitzer Prize in 1980.

See BETZING | 7 Truex overcomes early problems to win Coca-Cola 600 CONCORD, N.C. (AP) — Martin Truex Jr. gave team owner Joe Gibbs another reason to celebrate at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Truex overcame an early flat tire after hitting the wall, then broke to the front on a wild final restart and won the Coca-Cola 600 for the second time in four seasons Sunday night. It was the perfect cap to a landmark week for Gibbs and his race team. The three-time Super Bowl champion coach was voted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame on Wednesday, along with two of his race team’s championship drivers in Bobby Labonte and Tony Stewart. But according to Gibbs, it was Truex, in his first season with JGR, who delivered the program’s biggest moment. “What was Wednesday?” Gibbs responded when asked if the race victory was bigger than the Hall of Fame. Gibbs broke into laughter when reminded about his honor. “Obviously, I’m excited about tonight,” he said with a smile. And Truex provided much of the excitement. He slid into the Turn 4 wall during the first stage of NASCAR’s longest event, damaging his tire and seemingly putting his chances in serious jeopardy. But crew chief Cole Pearn radioed his driver that things were not that bad and to stay calm and remain focused. “I thought, ‘We’re done. How we going to fix this thing?’” Truex said. “I didn’t know how bad it was, (but) the guys worked hard, fixed it up.” That steadied Truex the rest of the way, especially near the end when he drove low during a four-wide fight for the lead on the final restart at Charlotte Motor Speedway. He had an easier time in the 2016 race when he led 392 of 400 laps. Truex sprang out low and shot into the front past Kyle Busch, Ryan Newman and David Ragan, who stretched four across the track. “You just never know what can happen,” said Truex, who led 116 laps this time. Truex held off defending series champion and Team Penske driver Joey Logano — and again prevent owner Roger Penske from becoming the first to helm winners at the Indianapolis 500 and Coca-Cola 600 on motorsports biggest day. Things began with Lewis Hamilton’s rousing win in the Monaco Grand Prix, which he dedicated to his late friend and champion driver Niki Lauda. Next, Simon Pagenaud gave Penske his 18th Indy 500 victory in a thrilling duel over the final laps with Alexander Rossi. “For us, it’s the wildest race we’ve ever won,” Pearn said. Truex was happy to provide his boss another win. “To think a guy can be in the Pro Football Hall of Fame and the NASCAR Hall of Fame just tells you how special (Gibbs) is and I’m super honored to drive for him,” Truex said. Pearn said the car was seriously damaged by the early run into the wall and it took several trips to the pits to fix the issues. Still, in victory lane, Pearn couldn’t believe his team came out on top. “It was crazy to see the car be that good and be See TRUEX | 7 OVP Sports Schedule Thursday, May 30 Region 15 Baseball Southern vs. Newark Catholic at Beavers Field, 2 p.m. Toronto vs. Huntington Ross at Beavers Field, 5 p.m. Friday, May 31 Region 15 Baseball Championship game at Beavers Field, 5 p.m. Track and Field OHSAA meet at Jesse Owens Stadium, 9:30 Saturday, June 1 Track and Field OHSAA meet at Jesse Owens Stadium, 9:30 Nathan Denette | The Canadian Press via AP Toronto Raptors center Serge Ibaka reacts after dunking against the Milwaukee Bucks during the first half of Game 6 of the NBA basketball playoffs Eastern Conference finals Saturday in Toronto.

He won five as a player, has three already as a coach and is going to the finals for the 10th time in his last 13 seasons in either of those roles. “It’s not like we’ve come to expect it, but we’re veterans of this experience and this run and our guys know how to finish games,” Kerr said. “They know how to win playoff series, and so there’s a sense of confidence going into every round. There’s still a sense of joy and accomplishment getting to the finals. It’s so hard to do.” For Leonard, it’ll be the first trip to the finals since he was MVP of the series in 2014. And it only continues to prove that his first year in Toronto was a success. Traded to the Raptors last summer by San Antonio — DeMar DeRozan was the big piece the Spurs got — Leonard, his health and whether he’d fit in in Toronto was one of the major storylines entering this season. Asked and answered. Leonard has averaged 31.2 points and 8.8 rebounds in the playoffs, had a 27-point, 17-rebound, seven-assist effort in the win over Milwaukee that clinched the East on Saturday, and had perhaps the biggest moment of this postseason when his buzzer-beater hit the rim four times before dropping to beat Philadelphia in Game 7 of the second round. “He’s been great,” Kerr said. “Not surprising, though. He’s got his finals MVP a few years ago. One of the best players in the league, so he’s been great.” Game 2 is in Toronto on June 2, followed by Games 3 and 4 at Oracle Arena on June 5 and June 7. Either Game 4 or Game 6 — on June 13, if it goes that far — will be the final time the Warriors call that building home. They’re leaving Oakland after this season for the brand-new Chase Center in San Francisco. The Raptors swept the season series, though there are plenty of reasons not to make too big a deal out of that. For starters, the teams haven’t played since Dec. 12. And neither team was at full strength in either of those games — Durant scored 51 in a 131-128 loss at Toronto in a game in which the Warriors didn’t have Curry, Cousins or Green; the Raptors won by 20 at Oracle even without Leonard two weeks later. Regardless, it can now be said: Toronto and the Bay lay claim to the NBA’s two best teams this season. All that’s left to decide now is who’ll be hosting the championship parade and hoisting the Larry O’Brien Trophy. �SPORTS Daily Sentinel Betzing Tuesday, May 28, 2019 7 Pagenaud gives Menard first Indy 500 win From page 6 Senior Kelsey Brown also placed seventh in the shot put final (343) to account for the other two RVHS team points.

He had a sign to hang over a garage — but no idea where the garage was at the sprawling speedway. “I didn’t know enough to go there on 16th (Street) and drive under, so this guy at the gate in a yellow shirt was standing there, and he goes, ‘Where are you going with that sign?’ And I said, ‘I want to get in the garage area.’ So he said, ‘I’ll open the gate for you.’ So he unlocked the gate and let me in. I didn’t have a credential. I didn’t know where I was going. “I said, ‘Which way is the garage area?’ I think he thought I was crazy, but we had a good time. That was the first time I was here, 40 years ago. Been trying ever since. I see a stubborn, stupid guy.” Pagenaud made it all worth the wait. He arrived at the speedway this month with his job on the line and rumors swirling that Alexander Rossi could soon replace him at Team Penske. But the Frenchman is leaving with a pair of wins, his face soon to be engraved on the Borg-Warner trophy as the Indy 500 champion and with an assurance from Penske himself that he isn’t going anywhere. “Do I even have to answer that?” Penske asked. “Absolutely.” In a head-to-head duel for the ages, Pagenaud defeated none other than Rossi with a dra- INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Roger Penske celebrated his 50th anniversary in the Indianapolis 500 with his 18th victory. Along for the ride was sponsor John Menard, like Penske celebrating nearly a lifetime of annual trips to the fabled race. Unlike his old friend, he has had little success in the one event everyone wants to win. Menard finally reached victory lane Sunday with Penske and Simon Pagenaud, their car sponsored by his Midwestbased home improvement chain. Pagenaud held off Alexander Rossi in a frantic shootout that included five swaps of the lead in the final 13 laps. Menard was breathless watching the action and overwhelmed when it was over. “You ever watch that movie called ‘The Candidate,’ when that guy works and works and works and finally gets elected?” Menard asked. “After the election, he won, and he gazed into the mirror and says, ‘What the hell do I do now?’ That’s the way I feel. We’ll go try to win another one.” Menard was serious. He hopped on a plane and headed to Charlotte Motor Speedway to watch his son, Paul, race in NASCAR’s Coca-Cola 600. He sponsors his son’s car, and that actually got the elder Menard his first Indianapolis Motor Speedway victory when Paul won the Brickyard 400 in 2011. As much as Penske loves Truex matic pass on the penultimate lap and held on. Even sweeter, the win came the 50th anniversary of Penske’s arrival at the Brickyard. Pagenaud and Rossi swapped the lead five times over the final 13 laps, and the margin of victory was a mere 0.2086 seconds — the seventh-closest finish in the 103 years of the race. Pagenaud was dominant all day, leading 116 of the 200 laps, and the win was cathartic. He stopped his car at the start-finish line and hopped out to share his first Indy 500 win with his fans. And once he finally made his way to victory lane, Pagenaud climbed from his car and let out a primal scream, then dumped the entire bottle of celebratory milk over his head. “I never expected to be in this position,” Pagenaud said, “and I certainly am grateful.” President Donald Trump phoned Penske in victory lane from Japan, where he was meeting with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe over trade. Penske passed the phone to Pagenaud, and Trump later tweeted an invite to the White House for the winning team. Penske, who was there earlier with Joey Logano last month to celebrate last year’s NASCAR Cup Series championship, said Trump told him: “I must have been your good-luck charm.” Penske now has two consecu- have a chance to move in front, he said.

It was his third win in the crown jewel race in the past five years and fifth in the past 14. It was a banner day, too, with Josef Newgarden finishing fourth and Power in fifth. Rossi lost his cool several times in the race, but the Californian had better fuel mileage than Pagenaud and the Penske cars. The 2016 race winner twice charged to the front in the closing laps. “Horsepower. That’s unfortunately the way it is,” said Rossi, who was in a Honda for Andretti Autosport. “I think we had the superior car. We just didn’t have enough there at the end.” Pagenaud was in a Chevrolet, and the bowtie brand was the dominant engine all May. It swept the top four spots in qualifying, won the race and took four of the top six spots. Pagenaud is the first Frenchman to win the Indy 500 since Rene Thomas in 1914. He was the 21st winner form the pole and first since Helio Castroneves a decade ago. As he began the traditional victory lap in the back of a convertible, Rossi was one of many drivers to walk onto the track to congratulate him. The American leaned in for a genuine embrace. “Nothing else matters but winning,” Rossi said. “This one will be hard to get over.” (along with two of his championship drivers in Bobby Labonte and Tony Stewart), their Toyotas had some on-track problems. Erik Jones was out of the race after just 22 laps when his car slid hard into the wall and damaged his right front tire. Truex hit the wall on lap 74l while out front with a two-second lead. It was Denny Hamlin’s turn in the second stage as he hit the wall while near the front. Hamlin spun out again on the final lap to finish 17th. In the Xfinity race Saturday, Gibbs’ racer Christopher Bell won the pole and led 33 of the first 49 laps when he brushed the wall, hit tire caught fire and he couldn’t continue.

(AP) — Fans spelled out the message at the end of the national anthem, unfurling a huge banner behind the goal on the south end of Red Bull Arena: “ONE FOR ALL AND ALL FOR FOUR” it read, with a large gold star in the center. Ten prep games for the U.S. women’s soccer team this year ended with an unimpressive 3-0 win over Mexico in a send-off match on Sunday. The Americans travel to England on Monday and will work out at Tottenham’s training grounds before heading to France on June 7, four days before starting their World Cup title defense against Thailand. “We want to win everything. We want to win every game,” said midfielder Megan Rapinoe, her spiky hair newly dyed pink. “It’s going to be extremely tough. It’s going to be a grueling tournament. But, yeah, like I said, the expectation for us is always to win.” Seeking their fourth World Cup title, the top-ranked Americans have seven wins and two draws since a Jan. 19 loss at France, outscoring opponents 28-8. That defeat ended a 28-game unbeaten streak and the current run has been largely against lesser opponents, but confidence is high. After playing No. 34 Thailand, the U.S. closes group play against 39th-ranked Chile and No. 9 Sweden. “Pressure is starting to build, and I think for us it’s just getting more real and that’s why we’re excited to go over to London because we’re going to be away from all the distractions and it’s just going to be us and the tournament ahead,” star forward Alex Morgan said. During training next week in London, more focus is likely to be a few pitches away on a Spurs side preparing for its first Champions League final, against Liverpool on June 1. Team bonding will be as important as training. “So much of it is a mindset and an approach,” U.S. coach Jill Ellis said. “There’s a lot of good teams and we’re all aware of that, but want to be the team to beat.” Mexico failed to qualify after consecutive group stage eliminations, is ranked 26th and fielded a relatively inexperienced team mixed with a few veterans. But while the Americans had a 25-3 advantage in shots — including 11-0 on target — they struggled to score against an inferior rival. Tobin Heath was gifted her 30th international goal in the 11th minute when she ran onto a pass from goalkeeper Cecilia Santiago to unaware defender Rebeca Bernal. After the U.S. misfired in front of the net on a hot afternoon that displayed failings more than facets, the Americans pulled away on the strength of second-half substitutes. Mallory Pugh knocked in a short cross from New Jersey native Carli Lloyd in the 76th minute for her 16th goal. Twelve minutes later, Christen Press took a pass from Julie Ertz, spun and faked a defender to score from the top of the penalty area for her 48th. “We can definitely be sharper in the final pass and inside 18,” Ellis said. Cavs owner Dan Gilbert recovering CLEVELAND (AP) — Cavaliers owner and billionaire businessman Dan Gilbert is recovering after suffering symptoms of a stroke and seeking hospital care. Officials with Detroitbased Quicken Loans said in a statement that Gilbert “received immediate medical attention and is currently recovering comfortably” after going to a Detroit-area hospital early Sunday with “stroke-like symptoms.” Gilbert is the company’s founder and chairman. No other details were provided on Gilbert’s condition, a diagnosis or prognosis. The company said Gilbert’s family requests privacy at this time. Gilbert has owned the Cavs since 2005. The 57-year-old introduced new Cavs coach John Beilein at a press conference Tuesday at the team’s training facility in Independence, Ohio. His hospitalization comes a month before his Rocket Mortgage is to host Detroit’s first PGA Tour event. It also follows his launch of a ballot drive just days earlier to push auto insurance reform in Michigan. The state Legislature passed a landmark insurance reform bill Friday. While best known as the Cavs’ sometimes out- spoken owner, Gilbert is connected to numerous business ventures that that have propelled urban recoveries in Detroit and Cleveland. Under his ownership, the Cavs have gone to five NBA Finals and won the championship in 2016, the first major sports title for any Cleveland franchise since 1964. Gilbert famously wrote a scathing letter to Cavs fans after superstar LeBron James left as a free agent in 2010. But the two men patched up their differences, which led to James re-signing with his home state team in 2014.
