A Kickin’ good time
By Sarah Hawley
shawley@civitasmedia.com

POMEROY — From a
car show to the tribute to
truckers, live music and kid
activities, Kickin’ Summer
Bash brought a range of
entertainment and activities
to Pomeroy.
“Friday night was wonderful
and I was super pumped for
the amount of car enthusiasts
who either came and shared
their vehicle or came to take
in the beauty of the ‘beasts.’
I had so many favorites,” said
festival organizer Brenda
Roush.
The New Haven Road
Angels registered 67 vehicles,
not including those brought
by club members because
they could not be judged.
Twenty-ﬁve plus trophies were
awarded.
Saturday morning kicked off
the Anything that Floats Race,
followed by kids activities.
“The kids had a ball hunting
for treasure in the sand. When
the pirates showed up they
were trying to take the kids’
buried treasure (real coin
money),” said Roush.
Inﬂatables, particularly
those with water on the hot
afternoon were a favorite
among the kids. There was
also face painting, balloons,
tattoos, various items to give
away to the kids attending and
a guessing game.
“Many thanks to Sheriff
Keith Wood for doing the
ﬁngerprints for the kids and
bringing their vehicles along
with Robbie Jacks for bringing
down an ambulance. I noticed
one little guy who was playing

Digging for treasure was one of the activities for children during Kickin’ Summer Bash.

with the siren that had a huge
smile,” said Roush.
Saturday night featured
an entertainment lineup put
together by Brent Patterson.
“Each band was extremely
talented and we had a great
mix of style,” noted Roush.
The Tribute to the Truckers
went well and a lot of people
put in for their people’s
choice, said Roush. Trophies
were given for Best of Show,
Most Odometer Miles, Best
Paint, Farthest Driven, Oldest
Model and People’s Choice.

Main Street was closed down Saturday evening for the “Tribute to Truckers,”
giving people a chance to get an up close look at several trucks.

Editor’s Note: This is part
two of a three part series

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Senate
Republicans in Ohio said Monday
that their version of the state budget closes a projected $1 billion gap
while preserving essential services
and pumping more money into ﬁghting the opioid crisis.
Senate President Larry Obhof said
the Senate was proud it “found a way
to do more with less,” while acknowledging the causes of Ohio’s lagging
revenues are still a bit of a mystery.
“Let me be clear: This budget is
not pain-free,” the Medina Republican said. “Many government
agencies, including the Senate, see

substantial cuts compared to prior
versions of the bill. We worked with
everyone, from higher education to
health care, in an effort to identify
savings responsibly and with the least
impact on our citizens.”
Finance Chairman Scott Oelslager,
a North Canton Republican, said
most savings were achieved through
administrative streamlining and eliminating earmarks, with some program
cuts also included.
Of 610 school districts, 535 will see
their funding retained or increased
under the Senate’s plan. The plan
proposes cuts of less than 1 percent
to most of the remaining districts,

RACINE — The Racine Grange
took a stance on numerous legislative
matters, as well as holding its annual
baking contest at its recent meeting.
The legislative director presented
several resolutions for consideration.
The Ohio Legislature is considering
a bill to allow alcoholic beverages
to be used in ice cream. Since such
beverages are already available to
adults, members felt it would be a
huge temptation to youth. Therefore,
members voted to oppose this. Gov.
Kasich is pushing a new requirement
for licensing teachers to shadow workers in businesses for a year. Since
the teaching profession is the only
profession which does not get paid for
interning and since student teaching
is now required for a full year for new
teachers, thus costing them tuition to
do this as well as sacriﬁcing pay, the
Grange voted to oppose this proposed
new requirement.
Due to recent turmoil in approval
of a U.S. Supreme Court judge due to
a century-old Senate requirement of
a 60 percent vote to end cloture, the
Grange voted to ask to end this practice and return to the Constitutional
simple majority vote.
The Ohio Legislature is looking at
instituting a complicated new system
of assessing vehicle registration fees
due to the need for more money for
roads. The Grange voted to oppose a
change in the fees and instead recommend an increase in the Ohio gasoline
tax.
From 2010 to 2015, Ivy League colleges and universities garnered $25
billion in federal contracts and grants,
which is more than they receive in
tuition income. The Grange voted
to oppose the massive amount of
federal grants and contracts to Ivy
League schools. Many of the high U.S.
government ofﬁcials graduated from
these institutions and have a bias
toward them.
The members discussed current
problems with Obamacare. One item
in it which members felt was an abuse
of the federally-mandated system
is the ability of children ages 23 to
26 to obtain their health care insurance through their parents’ policies.
These children could be married or be

totally ﬁnancially independent of their
parents and still get this beneﬁt. The
Grange voted to oppose insurance for
these children.
President Donald Trump has indicated support for federally-funded
child daycare. This is socialistic
program. Members opposed this proposal.
During the recent presidential
campaign, democrats proposed paying off debts of college students.
When discussing this issue, members
pointed out that a college education
is optional and not required. Students
often do not major in subjects that
have good chances at employment.
Also, some students are legally using
their college loans to take vacations
on spring break. The members voted
to oppose any government repayment
of student debt.
Emma Ashley thanked the Yost
family for its assistance at the county
grange banquet.
Racine Grange held its annual
baking contest for its members with
Peggy Yost, Meigs County Treasurer,
acting as judge.
Olivia Yost placed ﬁrst in the youth
apple cheesecake bars. Hannah Yost
won ﬁrst place in the youth/adults
brownies contest. Keith Ashley won
ﬁrst place in the men’s baking with
apple crisp. Emma Ashley won ﬁrst in
cheddar cheese biscuits. The winners
then compete in the county grange
contest.
Olivia Yost gave a report on her
recent trip to Washington D.C. for
the National Grange Legislative Flyin. Grangers attend this conference
during a morning session to discuss
Grange positions and actions on legislative issues. In the afternoon, the
attendees then visit the ofﬁces of their
U.S. Senators and Representatives to
discuss issues.
The agriculture chairman reported
on the continuing threat to agriculture from the loss of honey bees. The
bees are needed to pollinate crops. It
was further reported that the federal
government is considering stripping
the food stamp program out of the
agriculture budget and moving it elsewhere.

THEIR VIEW

Route 66, a
celebration of kitsch
that’s worth saving
Editor’s note: The following editorial recently
appeared in the Chicago Tribune:
Museums don’t always have to come in
the shape of white-columned buildings, with
underground parking garages and yellowing
parchment behind thick glass. They can be a
ribbon of pavement that meanders through
cornﬁelds and scrub, a celebration of Americana
in the form of gaudy neon motel signs and shiny
diners with butterscotch malts on their menus.
Stretching nearly 2,500 miles from Chicago
to Santa Monica, Calif., Route 66 is indeed a
museum, a trove of quirky culture venerated in
song, cinema and literature. Nat King Cole’s
discography wouldn’t be the same without
“(Get Your Kicks On) Route 66.” The Joads
rumbled their teetering jalopy down Route 66
in Steinbeck’s “Grapes of Wrath.” Even Disney’s
animated smash, “Cars,” owes the inspiration
for its Tow Mater character to a rusted tow
truck parked by an abandoned gas station in
Galena, Kan.
That’s the way we view the “Mother Road,”
which is why we think its yesteryear feel should
continue to be preserved — and promoted. In
two years, the National Park Service’s Route 66
Corridor Preservation Program expires. Money
earmarked for that program has hardly walloped
the federal budget — just $2 million since 2001,
when the program began. But that money has
paid for nearly 150 projects along the roadway.
It’s not just federal money that goes to those
projects — the federal share has been matched
by $3.3 million from business, nonproﬁts and
local governments.
None of those projects are extravagant in
scope: a revamp of the Rialto Square Theater
marquee in Joliet, Ill., restoration of neon signs
for the Dell Rhea’s Chicken Basket restaurant
in Hinsdale, Ill., and the Donut Drive-In
in St. Louis; a ﬁx-up of the Baxter Springs
Independent Oil and Gas Station in Baxter
Springs, Kan.; roof repairs at the Navajo County
Courthouse in Holbrook, Ariz. They’re not
massive overhauls — simply modest spruce-ups
that keep intact Route 66’s kitschy feel.
A bipartisan bill now in Congress would
designate Route 66 as a National Historic
Trail. That would ensure preservation funds
are allocated for roadway projects every year.
And it would ensure that Route 66 remains
the storied tourist destination that it is now,
drawing tens of thousands of visitors annually
from every corner of the world — Brazil to
Russia, Germany to China. Congress can also
reauthorize the corridor preservation program
as it did in 2009, when it gave the program 10
more years. We prefer the National Historic
Trail option, since it doesn’t carry an expiration
date.

THEIR VIEW

Blinders help us see clearly
big picture. We don’t
need to see who will
cross over ﬁrst. We just
need to run the race the
best we can, with heads
held high and with hope
in our hearts.
Sometimes moving
forward wearing
blinders is the best way
to make our way to the
light—to the pinnacle
of our desire. Blinders
limit our view while
allowing us to keep our
eyes on the prize and
most importantly, our
faith in ourselves.
I can just imagine the
stares as I’m jogging
the boulevard donning
blinders on my head.
But that’s all I’ll be
doing—imagining—
because I won’t be able
to see the stares. I just
hope I miss the pigeon

I ran with my eyes
closed the other day. Yep!
Just for a few feet, but it
seemed like a mile. The
parking lot I was jogging
through was empty—no
cars or cats to bump
into. I had absolutely
no reason to be afraid
to close my eyes for a
few strides, yet, I was
terriﬁed. Pounding the
pavement blind felt as if
I could step into an abyss
any moment never to be
heard from again.
I assured myself that I
was safe, that there was
no danger in front of me,
that I had just peeked
and knew that my path
was clear, but knowing
this failed to translate
into conﬁdence in my
brain. I still felt like each
step was a step closer
to injury or even to my
demise.

TODAY IN HISTORY
Today is Tuesday, June
13, the 164th day of
2017. There are 201 days
left in the year.
Today’s Highlights in
History:
On June 13, 1942, a
four-man Nazi sabotage
team arrived on Long
Island, New York, during
World War II, three days
before a second four-man
team landed in Florida.
(All eight were arrested
after two members of
the ﬁrst group decided
to defect and cooperate
with U.S. authorities;
they were ultimately
spared while the other
six were executed.) President Franklin D. Roosevelt created the Ofﬁce
of Strategic Services,
a wartime intelligence
agency, and the Ofﬁce of
War Information, headed
by radio news commentator Elmer Davis.
On this date:
In 1842, Queen Victoria became the ﬁrst
British monarch to ride
on a train, traveling from
Slough Railway Station
to Paddington in 25 minutes.
In 1886, King Ludwig
II of Bavaria drowned in
Lake Starnberg.
In 1917, during World
War I, a group of Ger-

man Gotha bombers
attacked London, killing
162 people. The Phillips
Petroleum Co. was incorporated in Bartlesville,
Oklahoma. (Phillips
merged with Conoco in
2002.)
In 1927, aviation hero
Charles Lindbergh was
honored with a tickertape parade in New York
City.
In 1935, James Braddock claimed the title of
world heavyweight boxing champion from Max
Baer in a 15-round ﬁght
in Queens, New York.
“Becky Sharp,” the ﬁrst
movie photographed in
“three-strip” Technicolor,
opened in New York.
In 1957, the Mayﬂower II, a replica of the ship
that brought the Pilgrims
to America in 1620,
arrived at Plymouth,
Massachusetts, after a
nearly two-month journey from England.
In 1966, the Supreme
Court ruled in Miranda
v. Arizona that criminal suspects had to be
informed of their constitutional right to consult
with an attorney and to
remain silent.
In 1967, President
Lyndon B. Johnson

served not only as a
pilot project for the 5
A’s Program statewide,
but also served as one of
the MCHD’s ﬁrst ofﬁcial
Quality Improvement
(QI) projects.
QI is essential,
not only to ensure
quality nursing
services offered at the
health department,
but also for meeting
standards of the Public
Health Accreditation
Board (PHAB) (the
Accrediting body for
state and local health
departments).
“As a result of
study participation,
in which we exceeded
our 50 percent
goal by having 62.5
percent of women of
childbearing age willing
and contemplating
quitting smoking
through individualized
education, as well as
knowing that Meigs
County had been
identiﬁed as having 40
percent adult smoking
rate in 2015 and 23
percent adult smoking
rate in 2016 (according
to County Health
Rankings through the

to implement Tobacco

Buckeyes
COLUMBUS, Ohio
(AP) — Ohio State’s
search for a new basketball
coach began and ended
with Butler’s Chris Holtmann.
Holtmann was offered
the job by Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith
one day after Thad Matta’s
ﬁring was announced,
but didn’t accept until
two days later after Smith
agreed to bump the contract from seven years to
eight, at about $3 million
per year.
“It was clear,” Smith
said at a news conference
introducing Holtmann,
who took Butler to the
NCAA Tournament in
each of his three seasons.
“He was my target. He
was my target from the
very beginning.”
While Holtmann considered the offer, Smith
looked for a Plan B as
rumors swirled about possible candidates. Smith
met with the Holtmanns
in Dayton on Thursday
morning, and the deal was
sealed.

MASON, W.Va. — Carl
Stone, of Spencer, has
once again extended his
lead of the 2017 Senior
Men’s Golf League at
Riverside Golf Club, with
three weeks left in the
ﬁrst half of the season.
Through 10 weeks of
play, Stone’s total of 155
points, leads current runner-up Charlie Hargraves
by 18.5.
On Tuesday, a total of
68 players were divided
into 17 four-man teams.
The ﬁrst place score of
12-under par 58 was ﬁred
by the foursome of Jimmy
Gress, Cliff Gordon, John
Bumgarner and Carl
Stone.
Three shots back, there
was a tie for second place
between the quartet of
Siebert Belcher, Jack Fox,
Russ Wood and Haskel
Jones, and the team of
Larry Scarberry, Mike

Kenny Pridemore.
The closest to the pin

Tornado trio aids Ohio in BACF win
By Paul Boggs

pboggs@civitasmedia.com

MARIETTA, Ohio — Just
like in Cleveland on Friday, it
was also a record-setting night
right down Interstate 77.
And, the Southern Tornado
trio which competed contributed quite well to those marks
being broke.
That’s because Southern’s
triumvirate of Blake Johnson,
Trey Pickens and Jaylen Blanks
were all involved in the Ohio
team’s 50-33 victory over its
West Virginia counterparts in
the 24th annual Battle Against
Cystic Fibrosis all-star football
classic — held inside sparkling
Don Drumm Stadium.
With the Buckeye State’s
win, which featured the Ohio
all-stars erasing a 12-0 ﬁrstquarter deﬁcit by outscoring
the Mountaineers 50-13 in
the ﬁnal 38 minutes and 21
seconds, Ohio snapped a twogame losing streak in the series
—which is now at 15-9 in favor
of West Virginia.

Ohio reversed a 12-0 deﬁcit
in the opening nine minutes
and 12 seconds, scoring 22
unanswered points— before
West Virginia sliced the deﬁcit
to 22-20 at halftime.
Both clubs exchanged a pair
of third-quarter touchdowns to
make it 36-33 in favor of Ohio,
but Johnson —who quarterbacked the Tornadoes to last
season’s state playoffs —delivered the dagger when he found
Marietta receiver Travis Moore
for a 15-yard touchdown toss
with two minutes and 10 seconds remaining.
The score capped the longest
scoring drive of the night — a
10-play, 54-yard march that
spanned four minutes and
20 seconds and which made
it 43-33 after the ﬁrst of two
extra-point kicks by Marietta’s
Tyler Devol.
Devol then made his second
extra point only a minute and
seven seconds later, when —

Penguins beat Preds 2-0 for Stanley Cup

Jeff Roberson | AP

Pittsburgh Penguins’ Patric Hornqvist (72), of Sweden, celebrates after scoring a
goal against Nashville Predators goalie Pekka Rinne (35), of Finland, during the
third period of Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final on Sunday in Nashville, Tenn.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP)
— Sidney Crosby is bringing
the Stanley Cup back home to
Pittsburgh for a second consecutive year.
He’s bringing another MVP
trophy, too.
Patric Hornqvist scored
with 1:35 left and Matt Murray
made 27 saves for his second
straight shutout as the Penguins became the ﬁrst team in
nearly two decades to repeat
as champion with a 2-0 win
over the Nashville Predators in
Game 6 on Sunday night.
The Penguins won their ﬁfth
title — all of them clinched on
the road — to tie the Wayne
Gretzky-Mark Messier-era
Edmonton Oilers for sixth on
the all-time list.
The Detroit Red Wings in
1997 and ‘98 were the last
champion to defend their title.
The Penguins are the ﬁrst to
do it in the salary-cap era.
“We knew it was going to
be tough all year, but we just
tried to keep with it,” Crosby
said. “We had a lot of injuries
and things like that. We just
kept ﬁnding ways. That was
really what we did all season,
all playoffs. It’s great to be able
to do it.”
Crosby also became just the
third player to win the Conn

Smythe Trophy in consecutive years as the Stanley Cup
MVP to go along with his third
championship.
He led the Final in scoring
with one goal and six assists,
including three in a 6-0 win in
Game 5 that put the Penguins
on the doorstep of another
title.
Only teammate Evgeni Malkin (28 points) had more than
Crosby’s 27 this postseason.
“You have a small window to
play and have a career,” Crosby
said. “I feel fortunate, but I also
understand how difﬁcult it was
so you just want to try to make
the best of it.”
Hornqvist scored off Nashville goalie Pekka Rinne’s left
elbow, the former Predator
silencing the raucous crowd
that had stood for long minutes
and ﬂung a few more catﬁsh,
too.
Nashville challenged for
goalie interference, but the goal
was upheld.
With Pekka Rinne pulled for
an extra attacker, Carl Hagelin
set off a bench celebration with
an empty netter with 13.6 seconds left.

Tapwrit wins Belmont
Stakes by 2 lengths
NEW YORK (AP) — The
road to the winner’s circle in
the Belmont Stakes ran through
the Kentucky Derby, even if the
Derby and Preakness winners
skipped the ﬁnal leg of the Triple
Crown.
Tapwrit overtook favored Irish
War Cry in the stretch to win by
two lengths on Saturday, giving
trainer Todd Pletcher his third
career victory in the Belmont.
He won in 2007 with ﬁlly Rags
to Riches and in 2013 with Palace
Malice.
The ﬁrst four ﬁnishers all
followed a well-worn path: run in
the Derby, skip the Preakness and
come back fresh for the Belmont.
Five of the last nine Belmont
winners did just that.
Tapwrit ﬁnished sixth in
the 20-horse Derby after
encountering trafﬁc in what
Pletcher described as “a sneaky
good” race.
“We felt like with the ﬁve
weeks in between, and with the
way this horse had trained, that
he had a legitimate chance,” said
Pletcher, who is based at Belmont
Park. “I think that’s always an
advantage.”
Irish War Cry was 10th after
pressing the early pace in the
May 6 race.
Patch took third in the Belmont
after being 14th in the Derby.
Gormley, ninth in the Derby,
ﬁnished fourth Saturday.
Ridden by Jose Ortiz, Tapwrit
ran 1 1/2 miles in 2:30.02 on his
home track.
Ortiz’s brother Irad Jr. won the
race last year with Creator.
“The distance, I was sure he
could handle it,” Ortiz said.
Tapwrit paid $12.60, $6.50 and
$5 at 5-1 odds.
Irish War Cry returned $4.70
and $3.90 as the 5-2 favorite in
front of 57,729 on an 82-degree
day.
Patch, the one-eyed horse
trained by Pletcher, was another
5 3/4 lengths back in third and
paid $6.50 to show.
Pletcher took two of the year’s
three Triple Crown races, having
saddled Always Dreaming to
victory in the Derby.
“The Derby win was awesome,”
he said. “The last ﬁve weeks have
been the ultimate roller coaster.
We felt really good coming in that
both horses were doing very well.
We felt like both horses suited
the mile and a half distance. They
had the right running styles and
the right dispositions and the
right pedigrees. Fortunately, it all
fell into place.”
Tapwrit, a 3-year-old gray colt,
was purchased for $1.2 million,
making him the most expensive
horse in the ﬁeld.
He’s co-owned by John and
Leslie Malone, who race as
Bridlewood Farm, Eclipse
Thoroughbred Partners and
Robert LaPenta, who won the
2008 Belmont when 70-1 shot
Da’Tara spoiled Big Brown’s
Triple Crown bid.
John Malone is chairman of
Liberty Media Corp., whose

Trio

holdings include Sirius XM radio
and the Atlanta Braves.
The $1.5 million race took
several hits before the starting
gate opened.
It lacked Always Dreaming
and Preakness winner Cloud
Computing.
Classic Empire, the expected
favorite, dropped out Wednesday
with a foot abscess.
Epicharis, the early 4-1 second
choice, was scratched Saturday
morning after failing a pre-race
veterinary exam. The Japanbased colt had been treated for
lameness in his right front hoof
earlier in the week.
All that left it a wide-open race,
and in the end it was Tapwrit that
proved he was up to the grueling
1 1/2-mile challenge.
“Tapwrit was getting a
beautiful trip,” Pletcher said. “It
was everything we talked about
in the paddock before the race.
We were hoping he had enough
when it came to crunch time. It
looked like Irish War Cry still had
a little something left, but the last
sixteenth, he dug down deep.”
Irish War Cry, who ﬁnished
10th in the Kentucky Derby, went
for the lead and was immediately
pressured by 13-1 shot Meantime,
ridden by Mike Smith, who won
ﬁve stakes on the undercard.
“It actually wasn’t our plan
to be on the lead,” said Graham
Motion, who trains Irish War Cry.
“We kind of hoped that somebody
else would go for it, but he had to
go to Plan B.”
Tapwrit, meanwhile, settled in
third, right behind the dueling
leaders.
They maintained that
positioning onto the ﬁnal turn
when Ortiz ﬁrst asked Tapwrit
for his run.
It took a while for Tapwrit to
ﬁnd his best gear.
Up front, Irish War Cry put
away Meantime and appeared
a likely winner at the top of
Belmont’s long stretch.
“At the eighth pole, I thought
was might be home free,” Motion
said, “but it’s the Belmont. It’s a
tough race.”
That’s when Tapwrit took up
the chase in earnest.
It was a two-horse race to the
ﬁnish line, with Tapwrit gaining
the lead in the ﬁnal furlong.
Gormley ﬁnished fourth,
followed by Senior Investment,
Twisted Tom, Lookin At Lee,
Meantime, J Boys Echo and
Multiplier.
Hollywood Handsome was
pulled up after clipping heels
with the horse in front of him,
causing jockey Florent Geroux to
lose his stirrups in the ﬁrst turn.
He guided the colt to the
outside until he could be
stopped.
The on-call vet said Hollywood
Handsome sustained a cut
behind his left knee, and it would
be closed with staples.
“I got squeezed pretty hard
coming into the ﬁrst turn,”
Geroux said. “I almost went
down.”

passed it to veteran forward Matt Cullen.
Nashville lost for just
the ﬁrst time in regulation on home ice this
postseason and this one
had some hard luck.
Colton Sissons had a
goal erased by a whistle
67 seconds into the second period.
The Predators went
0 of 4 with the man
advantage, including 32
seconds of a 5-on-3 in
the third.
Forget a golden anniversary: The Penguins
will cap their 50th season with their names on
the most famous silver
cup in sports — again.
It is also the third
championship for
Crosby and a handful
of teammates from the
2009 title team, surpassing the two won by
the Penguins teams led
by current owner Mario
Lemieux in the 1990s.
And it’s the second
championship in 18
months for coach Mike
Sullivan, who has yet
to lose a playoff series
since taking over after
Mike Johnston was
ﬁred.
Sullivan is the ﬁrst
American-born coach to
win the Cup not once,
but twice.
Murray became the
ﬁrst goalie to win not
one, but two Stanley
Cups as a rookie after
being a late-season
call up a year ago who
didn’t play enough
games to get that tag
removed.
That’s something neither Patrick Roy, Ken
Dryden or Cam Ward
ever managed, but the
23-year-old Murray ﬁnished this Final shutting
out Nashville for the
ﬁnal 126:52.
He set a rookie record
with two shutouts in
the Final.
The loss ended the
upstart Predators’ deepest playoff run in their
19-year history and one
that became the talk
of the town — and the
league.
Having won just three
of 12 playoff series
before this year, Nashville opened this postseason by eliminating
the top-seeded Chicago

at 42-33.
Johnson’s ﬁrst touchdown pass gave Ohio
the lead for good, when
he hooked up with Fort
Frye’s Brady Carpenter
from 18 yards out — with
nine-and-a-half minutes
remaining in the second
quarter.
Blanks, who later
caught an eight-yard pass
from Dawson on Ohio’s
opening drive of the third
frame that resulted in a
touchdown, ran in the
two-point conversion to
make it 16-12.
Blanks either lined up
as a wide receiver for the
Ohio squad, coached by
Marietta’s Jason Schob,
or was the deep man on
kickoff returns.
West Virginia never
kicked deep though, and
only attempted one extrapoint kick.
Point Pleasant kicker
Jason Schultz was listed
on the original West Virginia roster, but did not
play.
The Mountain State
squad was coached by

Tuesday, June 13, 2017 7

Blackhawks in four
games.
In doing so, the
Predators became the
ﬁrst eighth-seeded team
to sweep a ﬁrst-round
series since the current playoff format was
introduced in 1994.
Nashville went
through St. Louis and
then Anaheim to the
Final, where only captain Mike Fisher on the
roster had ever played
before.
Then a series that
hadn’t featured even a
single one-goal game
went scoreless through
the ﬁrst 58 minutes.
The Predators
thought they had the
ﬁrst goal of the game,
just like they did in
Game 1 in Pittsburgh,
only to have referee
Kevin Pollock wave it
off immediately.
He had whistled the
play dead when he
lost sight of the puck
with Murray on the ice
between him and the
puck.
Sissons tapped the
puck into the net 67
seconds into the second
period behind Murray’s
back.
Ofﬁcials huddled,
but the goal was not
allowed.
Murray also stopped
Sissons on a breakaway
midway through the
second and also gloved
a shot from Viktor
Arvidsson later in the
period.
The Penguins also
killed off 32 seconds of
a 5-on-3 at 8:47 of the
third after Trevor Daley
punched Ryan Ellis with
Olli Maatta already in
the box for tripping.
Murray made a big
stop on a shot by Mattias Ekholm followed by
a save on Arvidsson.
This championship
season for the Penguins
lacked some of the
drama from a year ago,
but it was far from a
slam dunk. Washington
won the President’s
Trophy for a second
straight season and
pushed Pittsburgh to
seven games in the second round.
Ottawa did the same
thing, forcing the Penguins to double overtime to clinch the Eastern Conference title.
Crosby, Malkin and
others also played in the
World Cup of Hockey
before the season, making this an even longer
year than usual.
In the end, the Penguins had more than
enough in the tank to
bring home another
title.
“We’ve got a collection of guys who understand what it takes to
win,” Crosby said.

Mike Eddy, who is the
current head coach at
Parkersburg South —
after guiding Gallia
Academy for four years
through 2012.
Fort Frye’s Casey Lewis
led the Ohio team with
105 yards and three
touchdowns on 18 carries.
He was named Ohio’s
Most Valuable Player, as
was Billeter for West Virginia — who completed
a dozen passes on 22
attempts for 128 yards
and four scores.
Billeter, of St. Marys, is
a preferred walk-on this
upcoming season at West
Virginia University.
He also rushed for a
team-high 73 yards on
15 carries, as three of
his completions went
to St. Marys teammate
Braden Barnhart for 66
yards.
Barnhart’s 16-yard
touchdown reception,
with 16 seconds left
in the third quarter to
convert 4th-and-10, got
the Mountaineers to

recruiting with great ties to the
great state of Ohio and the contiguous states,” Smith said. “We
found a proven winner who is a
community engager and, bottom
line, ﬁts our culture.”
Expectations for the 45-yearold Holtmann are lofty: Return
the Buckeyes to the national
prominence enjoyed for years
under Matta, and win recruiting battles for prep players who
can be potential game-changers,
starting in Ohio.
“One of the reasons you come
to a place like this is because you
understand that expectations
come with it,” Holtmann said.
“We’re certainly not going to shy
away from that.”
Holtmann, a Nicholasville,
Kentucky, native, started his
coaching career as an assistant
at his alma mater, Taylor University, then had stops at Geneva,
Gardner-Webb and Ohio University. He was head coach at
Gardner-Webb for three seasons
before moving to Butler as an
assistant under Brandon Miller
in 2013.
He was named interim head
coach in October 2014 after
Miller took a medical leave of
absence. The interim tag was
removed in January 2015. In
April, Holtmann signed a contract extension through the
2024-25 season.
He had a 70-31 record in
three seasons with the Bulldogs,
including a 25-9 mark in 201617. Butler’s 2016-17 campaign
included a 14-5 regular-season
record against 12 teams that
made the 2017 tournament ﬁeld.
Holtmann said he began
calling recruits on Saturday
and vowed that in-state players
would be his priority.
“We’re going to work
extremely hard as a staff to close
the border and dominate the
state of Ohio in recruiting,” he
said.
However, some adversity is
likely ahead for Holtmann in his
ﬁrst season in Columbus. Ohio
State was 17-15 last season and
7-11 in the Big Ten, and missed
the NCAA Tournament in 2016
and 2017. All ﬁve of Matta’s
2015 recruits have transferred or
quit the program, most recently
star guard JaQuan Lyle. Starting
center Trevor Thompson left for
the NBA.
“We have a tremendous work
ahead of us,” Holtmann said,
declining to put a timetable on
when the Buckeyes will return to
the NCAA Tournament.
Forward Keita Bates-Diop,
who missed the ﬁnal 18 games
of last season because of a stress
fracture of his left leg, said he
was impressed that Holtmann
ﬂew to Columbus on Friday
speciﬁcally to meet the team, as
a group and then individually.
“He told all the guys, I want to
come in and win now. It’s going
to be a lot of work, obviously,
we’ve got to build trust in each
other,” Bates-Diop said. “A new
staff coming in, they don’t know
us, we don’t know them. It’s
going to be rough for a little bit.”

within 36-33 with their
only extra-point kick.
But West Virginia,
which allowed ﬁve Ohio
scoring drives of six
plays or less, couldn’t
take advantage of Ohio’s
second punt —only a
13-yard boot that went
out of bounds at the
West Virginia 44.
With 10:46 remaining,
Billeter and Roane
County’s Tyler May —
who rushed for 56 yards
on 15 totes — moved
the visitors to the Ohio
27, which was aided by
a 15-yard personal-foul
penalty.
But Billeter, before
being sacked, was
intercepted by Smitley
on 4th-down-and-2.
Dawson completed 10
passes on 16 attempts
for 146 yards, as Moore
made two touchdown
receptions —including
getting Ohio on the
board when Dawson’s
deep ball to him went
for 47 yards at the 2:21
mark of the ﬁrst.
Lewis added the two-

point conversion run,
as Ohio then took over
on downs at the West
Virginia 33 — following
four plays and only 10
seconds gone by in the
second stanza.
Ohio, with Johnson’s
touchdown to Carpenter,
took the lead for good
four plays later —and
led for the ﬁnal 33:34.
Moore ﬁnished with
eight receptions for 129
yards, as the Buckeye
quarterbacks combined
to go 15-of-23 for 205.
Carpenter caught
three passes for 39
yards, while Ivey added
10 carries and 65 yards
on the ground — part
of a team 170 and 375
total.
Johnson did record
one carry for no yards.
Ty McGraw of
Waterford was a member
of the Ohio team, as
his father played in the
inaugural BACF game in
1994.
