God’s Tuesday, November 17, 2020 3 Hands asked for community assistance on social media next. “Rodney Pike Church of God was the first to step up,” said Carroll. “They have a carport on their church so they would put totes out every day of the week under that and invited the public to drive by and drop food in there if they had anything extra. That’s how we started restocking our pantry.” Carroll said such efforts started in early summer. In the following months, donations started to revolve around giving themes. “One month was all breakfast items and another was foods that children could make on their own and things like that,” said Carroll. “We’ve had other churches step up and a lot of individuals when they heard our pantry was low.” “We slowly restocked it and now it’s back up,” said Rote. “We had to get creative. It took a while to get there.” Carroll said that towards the beginning of the pandemic’s presence in Ohio Valley it had been more difficult. God’s Hands is now a bit more prepared to handle the needs of clients as it adjusts to the trials of the times. “God’s really seen us through and is still seeing us through,” said Carroll. “People were hungry. Kids were home from school. It’s just something that had to be done… We’re taking all the precautions we can with things like social distancing and masks.” Not only did the pandemic affect the organization’s volunteer numbers, it also has taken its financial toll. “We have since started to apply for grants, which is something we’ve never done before,” said Carroll. The nonprofit recently received a $2,500 grant to start a mobile food pantry in Meigs County and has applied for a $5,000 to start a similar effort in Gallia County. God’s Hands was given $10,000 from Gallia County’s Huntington Township to assist with pandemic-related expenses. God’s Hands at Work representatives said Ohio Valley Bank has also presented a monetary donation to the organization’s endeavors. The organization is preparing for coming winter challenges and said it will continue to provide support for others as best it can with heating bills and similar needs expected to grow. “It’s all about helping. That’s what God asks us to do and we’re going to keep doing that,” said Rote. Those seeking to help or in need of help may call God’s Hands at Work at 740-645-7609 or leave a message with the organization’s Facebook page. © 2020 Ohio Valley Publishing, all rights reserved.

The outbreak has killed more than 1.3 million people worldwide, over 246,000 of them in the U.S. Stocks rallied on Wall Street and around the world on rising hopes that the global economy could start returning to normal in the coming months. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained more than 470 points, or 1.6%, to close at a record high of over 29,950. Moderna stock was up almost 10%. Both vaccines require two shots, given several weeks apart. U.S. officials said they hope to have about 20 mil- lion Moderna doses and another 20 million of the vaccine made by Pfizer and its German partner BioNTech to use in late December. Dr. Stephen Hoge, Moderna’s president, welcomed the “really important milestone” but said having similar results from two different companies is what’s most reassuring. “That should give us all hope that actually a vaccine is going to be able to stop this pandemic and hopefully get us back to our lives,” Hoge told The Associated Press. He added: “It won’t be Moderna alone that solves this problem. It’s going to require many vaccines” to meet the global demand. If the Food and Drug Administration allows emergency use of Moderna’s or Pfizer’s candidate, there will be limited, rationed supplies before the end of the year. Exactly who is first in line has yet to be decided. But Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar said the hope is that enough doses are available by the end of January to vaccinate adults over 65, who are at the highest risk from the coronavirus, and health care workers. Fauci said it may take until spring or summer before anyone who is not high risk and wants a shot can get one. Neal Browning of Bothell, Washington, who rolled up his sleeve back in March for the first testing of Moderna’s vaccine in humans, said he is excited about Monday’s “excellent news” but is still carefully wearing a mask and taking other precautions. “I’m super happy to be a part of this and to try and help bring some kind of peace back to the world,” Browning said. “I have a lot of hope.” Arrests murder after the fact, according to the sheriff’s department.

The 12th-seeded Point Pleasant football team held No. 5 seed Oak Glen off the board in the opening stanza of Saturday’s Class AA opening round playoff game in Hancock County, but the hosts proved to be too much, ending the Big Blacks’ season with a 42-0 decision. Oak Glen (7-1) —which opened the season with a 36-13 win at Point Pleasant (4-3) — broke the scoreless tie on Saturday 1:50 into the second quarter, with a 61-yard touchdown run by Hunter Patterson, who then tossed the two-point conversion pass to Gage Patterson. OGHS was up 15-0 with 6:27 left in the first half, as Nicholas Chaney scored on a one-yard run and Nate Davis made his first of four point-after kicks. With 1:28 left in the half, Hunter Patterson gave the Golden Bears a 22-0 lead with a 36-yard touchdown run. Just 56 seconds into the second half, Oak Glen led 29-0 with 22-yard touchdown pass from Chaney to Gage Patterson. Chaney then found See BEARS | 7 NCAA in talks with Indianapolis to host all of March Madness By John Marshall The Associated Press The NCAA announced Monday it plans to hold the entire 2021 men’s college basketball tournament in one geographic location to mitigate the risks of COVID-19 and is in talks with Indianapolis to be the host city. The Final Four is already set to be held in Indianapolis next April and the NCAA has its headquarters in the Indiana capital. Early-round games had been scheduled at 13 predetermined sites across the country. Moving those to one location would allow a safe and controlled environment with venues, practice facilities, lodging and medical resources all within proximity of one another. No decision on how to handle the women’s NCAA Tournament has been decided yet. “The committee and staff have thoughtfully monitored the pandemic to develop potential contingency plans,” NCAA President Mark Emmert said. “The Board of Governors and my top priorities are to protect the health and well-being of college athletes while also maintaining their opportunity to compete at the highest level. These principles have guided the decision-making process as we continue to assess how to have a fair and safe championship experience.” The NCAA set a Nov. 25 start date for the college basketball season as it tries to bounce back from the tournaments being canceled last spring due to the coronavirus pandemic. Schools have scrambled to fill schedules while rising positive coronavirus tests have wreaked havoc on the college football, causing the cancellation of more than 60 games. Emmert earlier floated the idea of playing the See NCAA | 7 Bryan Walters | OVP Sports Marshall junior Joshua Bowers (10) goes to scoop up a fumble caused by a hit from teammate Micah Abraham (6) during the first quarter of Saturday’s Conference USA football game against Middle Tennessee State at Joan C.

The Blue Raiders fumbled the ball away on their opening drive of the second half as Nazeeh Johnson forced and recovered the ball at the MU eight.

Wells found Willie Johnson with a 23-yard scoring pass with 1:48 left in the third canto to wrap up the 28-point outcome. MU running back Brenden Knox was held under 100 rushing yards for the first time in six games and did not score for the first time all season, but that simply opened the door for Wells to have the record-setting day that he did. The redshirt freshman became the 20th quarterback in Marshall history to throw five touchdowns in a game. Wells also set career highs in completions, passing yards and passing touchdowns in his seventh start. Wells completed 25-of-37 passes for 336 yards and five scores, all without throwing an interception. Wells also completed passes to eight different receivers. Willie Johnson had career highs with eight catches for 137 yards and two scores. Knox led the MU rushing attack with 70 yards on 16 attempts. Nazeeh Johnson led the MU defense with 13 tackles, followed by Beckett with 11 stops. Hodge recorded the lone sack of the contest. The Herd claimed a 26-18 edge in first downs and outgained the guests by a 520-303 overall margin in total yards of offense. Marshall also finished the day plus-2 in turnover differential. The hosts were penalized seven times for 75 yards, while Middle Tennessee State was flagged four times for 40 yards. Marshall now leads the alltime series by a 6-4 overall margin.

Since 2015, the first two rounds have been played on home campuses of the top 16 seeds. Those aren’t known until Selection Monday, so there are no predetermined sites. The women’s Final Four next March is set for San Antonio and the regionals are supposed to be played in Albany, New York, Austin, Texas, Cincinnati and Spokane, Washington.
