According to Ohio State Highway Patrol Sergeant J.R. Howard, the male driver was immediately apprehended. A female passenger was found convulsing when ofﬁcers pulled her from the water. Once they reached the bank, ofﬁcers administered two doses of Naloxone. Trooper information indicated that the evaders drove up a private drive and through a private yard before landing in the pond. The male driver was transported to Jackson Holzer Medical Center for treatment. Upon evaluations, the jails in Gallia County and Scioto County wouldn’t take the male. The male had some injures, which ofﬁcials believe weren’t a result of the crash and may have happened prior to the chase. The Ohio Highway Patrol isn’t releasing the names of the two unidentiﬁed people because they haven’t been charged with a crime — as of yet. “We are going to take it straight to the grand jury and have him indicted,” Howard said. “We will seek indictment on felony ﬂeeing and leaving charges.” The pursuit began on Essman-Sugar Camp road in Scioto County. A trooper attempted to pull over the vehicle for a trafﬁc violation. After taking back roads, the vehicle went from Essman-Sugar Camp road back down State Route 140 and headed toward Jackson County. After traveling down additional back roads, the vehicle ended up on Ohio 93, heading toward Township 532 in Ironton. The vehicle eventually ended up on State Route 233, where it crossed into Gallia County. Chris Slone is editor of the Portsmouth Daily Times and contributed to this story.

After two weeks of testing, Coleman began treatment for what was Stage 2 breast cancer. She said it was the fast growing type. Chemo began on Dec. 22, 2016, with treatments until early June 2017. After a four week break she underwent a lumpectomy, with radiation starting on Aug. 22. At the halfway point of chemotherapy, the mass had shrunk in half said Coleman. Now, with treatments complete, Coleman will have followup appointments in the coming months and a mammogram in six months to recheck. Throughout her diagnosis and treatment, Coleman has continued to work at Farmers Bank in Mason as much as possible, despite the doctor not initially wanting her to work. While Coleman did work, she was “grounded” to her house other than work and doctor visits. Coleman said that the bank had been wonderful to work with her as she needed time off over recent months. She explained that she was used to going out and doing things with her family, including shopping trips with her daughter. It was much different having to stay home. She said the support of her husband, Gary, and children, Kassandra and Shaun, along with her sister had helped her to get through the treatments. “There is power in prayer,” said Coleman, thanking all of those who had offered prayers or support throughout the journey. As for attending the Volley for the Cure game on Thursday, Coleman explained that she had no idea she was going to be recognized by the team.

Retail stores sell merchandise featuring pink ribbons and bras and sporting teams wear pink to promote early detection and awareness. Breast cancer is mostly commonly diagnosed in females, but did you know men can develop breast cancer too? The American Cancer Society (ACS) estimates for breast cancer in men in the United States for 2017 are about 2,470 new cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed; about 460 men will die from breast cancer. Although certain risk factors may increase a man’s chances of developing breast cancer, the cause of most breast cancers in men is unknown. Courtney The ACS reports it doesn’t yet Midkiff completely understand the causes of Contributing breast cancer in men, but researchers columnist have found several factors that may increase the risk of getting it. As with female breast cancer, many of these factors are related to the body’s sex hormone levels. 1. Aging is an important risk factor for the development of breast cancer in men. The risk of breast cancer goes up as a man ages. 2. Breast cancer risk is increased if other members of the family (blood relatives) have had breast cancer. 3. Men with a mutation (defect) in the BRCA2 gene have an increased risk of breast cancer. 4. Klinefelter syndrome is a congenital condition (present at birth) that affects about 1 in 1,000 men. 5. A man whose chest area has been treated with radiation (such as for the treatment of a cancer in the chest, such as lymphoma) has an increased risk of developing breast cancer. 6. Heavy drinking (of alcoholic beverages) increases the risk of breast cancer in men. 7. The liver plays an important role in sex hormone metabolism by making binding proteins that carry the hormones in the blood. These binding proteins affect the hormones’ activity. Men with severe liver disease such as cirrhosis have relatively low levels of androgens and higher estrogen levels. They have a higher rate of benign male breast growth (gynecomastia) and also have an increased risk of developing breast cancer. 8. Estrogen-related drugs were once used in hormonal therapy for men with prostate cancer. This treatment may slightly increase breast cancer risk. 9. Studies have shown that women’s breast cancer risk is increased by obesity (being extremely overweight) after menopause. Obesity is probably a risk factor for male breast cancer too. Regular exercise and maintaining a healthy weight may help reduce the risk of breast cancer, as well as that of many other diseases and cancers. 10. Some studies have suggested that certain conditions, such as having an undescended testicle, having mumps as an adult, or having one or both testicles surgically removed (orchiectomy) may increase male breast cancer risk. Although the risk seems to be increased, overall it is still low. 11. Some reports have suggested an increased risk in men who work in hot environments such as steel mills. This could be because being exposed to higher temperatures for long periods of time can affect testicles, which in turn would affect hormone levels. Men heavily exposed to gasoline fumes might also have a higher risk. More research is needed to conﬁrm these ﬁndings. Per the ACS, there are some things a man can do to lower his risk of breast cancer: maintaining an ideal body weight and restricting alcohol consumption are 2 of them. But since the cause of most breast cancers is not known, there is no known way to prevent them. For now, the best strategies for reducing the number of deaths caused by this disease are early detection and prompt treatment. Early detection has been a problem for men, who may not notice breast lumps or see their doctor only when the lumps have gotten large. In general, men are diagnosed with breast cancers at more advanced stages than are women. There are many similarities between breast cancer in men and women, but there are some important differences that affect ﬁnding it early. The most obvious difference between the male and female breast is size. Another difference is that breast cancer is common among women and rare among men. Women tend to be aware of this disease and its possible warning signs, but many men do not think that they can get it at all. Some men ignore breast lumps or think they are caused by an infection or some other reason, and they do not get medical treatment until the mass has had a chance to grow. Some men are embarrassed when they ﬁnd a breast lump and worry that someone might question their masculinity. This could also delay diagnosis and reduce a man’s chances for successful treatment. Because See CANCER | 7A THEIR VIEW Keeping calm in crazy times The news hit most of us like a bolt of lightning. Unless you’d been following it on television or online since the small hours of last Monday, we awoke to coverage of the deadliest mass shooting to date in U.S. history. No matter how many shocks this nation has endured since Sept. 11, 2001, nothing can prepare you for this kind of news getting thrown in your face. And after it all sinks in, you are confronted by the utter senselessness of one man in a Las Vegas hotel room raining gunﬁre down on innocent citizens enjoying a country music festival. So you watch the news and learn of efforts by local, state and federal ofﬁcials to determine why Stephen Craig Paddock, a retired accountant, property owner and sometime gambler from Mesquite, Nev., chose to connect his name to the worst single episode of killing this nation has had the misfortune of yet seeing. You hear the death toll from the carnage he caused rising to 59, the injury list topping 500 as those people who weren’t parents, relatives shot were hurt and friends will trying to escape have to mourn the 10-to-15 minutes of loss of loved ones nightmare.

But what is had been to that point maddening are those indimodern American history’s worst mass murder viduals, mentally unstable and acting alone, that no spree at the Pulse night club in Orlando, Fla. The one sees coming when anguish of those victims’ they set out to end the families comes back with lives of as many people the realization that more as possible — and their own in the process. That there appears to be no way to predict or prevent these people from doing harm becomes part of a new normal for Americans, another worry in an increasingly worrisome world. How we personally deal with such concerns is paramount to maintaining some kind of normalcy. Keeping calm is one way, offering prayer and trusting in faith is another, and maintaining the routine we’ve established for ourselves are all means of coping with such horrors. We cannot, of course, shut ourselves off from the world around us because of these incidents. We should not shun open spaces and public events because of a perceived threat.

Or, that the leading cause of home ﬁre deaths are ﬁres that originated by smoking materials (cigarettes, lighters, ashtrays), in a bedroom, living room, family room, or den. On average, 3 out of every 5 ﬁre deaths occur in a residence with no smoke alarms, or in a residence in which alarms are present but are not operable. Often times, these inoperable smoke alarms fail to alert residents due to batteries that are missing, disconnected, or dead.

From 1896 when the current facility was completed until the 1980s, the building located next to the Meigs County Courthouse was the home to the sheriff and his family, as well as the administrative ofﬁce, ofﬁce for deputies and the county jail. Sheriffs and their families from 1896 to 1984 lived in the residence portion of the building, according to sheriff’s ofﬁce information. The building, which replaced the former sheriff’s ofﬁce that was destroyed by ﬁre was described in the local newspaper at the time as being “One of the ﬁnest buildings in the county” at the time of its construction. “The destruction of the old jail by ﬁre February 4, 1894, at the time the Telegraph printing ofﬁce was destroyed, made it necessary for the County Commissioners to erect another. At ﬁrst it was the intention to put up a cheap affair, but after mature consideration it was decided to erect a modern building — one that would be a credit to the county and an ornament in the city of Pomeroy,” read a Sept. 4, 1895 article in The Tribune-Telegraph. Construction began in 1894 soon after the ﬁre. The county added the former printing ofﬁce property to county property at a cost of $1,700 and excavating work began. George Bauer of Pomeroy was awarded the contract for excavating work in the amount of $1,818.75. The front of the building, with its two corner towers, was designed to be 52-and-a-half feet high with the depth of the sheriff’s residence at 37-and-a-half feet deep. The towers, with their curved windows, continue to stand and are portions of the ofﬁces for the sheriff and other ofﬁcers. The original windows remain in place today in the towers. The building was designed with 16 jail cells split among two stories in the building. The jail space was 36 feet long and 24 feet, 3 inches wide. On the ﬁrst ﬂoor, the sheriff’s residence included a parlor on one side of the main hallway, with a kitchen, pantry and dining room on the other side. On the second ﬂoor was four “spacious” bedrooms and a bathroom. The stonework on the building was to be the gray sandstone, uniform in color, for the base. The 1895 article continually references that the material used for the building was the best of its kind available, from the sandstone to the Peach Bottom rooﬁng slate. The total cost for the grounds and building File photo This photo shows the Meigs County Sheriff’s Office as it currently stands.

What was a two-story, 16 cell jail currently is approved to house only ﬁve inmates for up to 12 days as it no longer passes jail inspections for a full jail facility. The second ﬂoor of the jail has been converted into an evidence room for the ofﬁce. The building has undergone the normal wear and tear over the years, with current foundation concerns as the sandstone has worn over the years. �LOCAL Sunday Times-Sentinel Sunday, October 8, 2017 7A Eastern Class of 1959 holds reunion Members of the Eastern High School Class of 1959 met recently at Golden Corral in Parkersburg for their 58th reunion.

GALLIA, MEIGS BRIEFS Cancer From page 4A breast cancer is so uncommon in men, there is unlikely to be any beneﬁt in screening men in the general population for breast cancer with mammograms or other tests, according to the ACS. How Is Breast Cancer in Men Diagnosed? If there is a chance you have breast cancer, your doctor will want to get a complete personal and family medical history. A thorough breast exam will be done to locate any lumps or suspicious areas and to feel their texture, size, and relationship to the skin and muscle tissue. The doctor may also examine the rest of your body to look for any evidence of possible spread, such as enlarged lymph nodes (especially under the arm) or an enlarged liver. Your general physical condition may also be evaluated. If the history and physical exam results suggest breast cancer may be possible, several types of tests may be done: 1. A mammogram is an x-ray site at www.meigs-health.com to see a list of accepted commercial insurances and Medicaid for adults.

Memorial Drive in Pomeroy. Please bring child(ren)’s shot records. Children must be accompanied by a parent/legal guardian. A $15.00 donation is appreciated for immunization administration; however, no one will be denied services because of an inability to pay an administration fee for state-funded childhood vaccines. Please bring medical cards and/ or commercial insurance cards, if applicable. Zostavax (shingles); pneumonia and inﬂuenza vaccines are also available.

Breast ultrasound is often used to evaluate breast abnormalities that are found during mammography or a physical exam; 3. MRI; 4. Fluid leaking from the nipple is called nipple discharge. If you have a nipple discharge, you should have it checked by your doctor. If there is blood in this ﬂuid, you might need more tests. 5. Biopsy removes a body tissue sample to be looked at under a microscope. A biopsy is the only way to tell if a breast abnormality is cancerous. In conclusion, breast cancer is about 100 times less common among men than among women, but it is still a concern. Gentlemen, please contact your healthcare provider for more information, especially if you have a painless lump or thickening in your breast tissue; changes to the skin covering your breast, such as dimpling, puckering, redness or scaling; changes to your nipple, such as redness or scaling, or a nipple that begins to turn inward; discharge from your nipple. Courtney Midkiff is the Administrator at the Meigs County Health Department. No doubt there are some out there who just wish we’d forget about Las Vegas and move on to something else, like competition for the World Series. If you can do that, well, great. But I don’t think we can easily dismiss last weekend’s massacre any more than we can mufﬂe the echoes of past multiple slayings that have, for now, been dwarfed by this new standard for loss of life. If we just allow what happened to slip from our minds, how can we hope to do anything about it? You decide, as Larry King would say.

The Bulldogs, with a high powered offense, looked to be the favorite, but in the end the Bulldogs stopped Meigs twice in the ﬁnal 5:25 in Bulldog territory to post the slimmest of 19-18 wins. The Marauders held an 18-7 lead in at the half, but two third period touchdowns by the Bulldogs ended up being the difference in the contest. The Marauders received a break early in the contest when Chase Sammons fumbled a Landon Acree punt and Jake Perry recovered for Meigs at the Bulldog 12. Four plays later, Zach Helton kept it for the score from three yards out and a 6-0 Marauder lead. The Marauders forced a four-and-out and Meigs took over at its own 23. The Marauders drove to their own 47, and Helton hit Weston Baer on second down with a 45-yard pass down the sideline for a ﬁrst and goal at the Bulldog 8. On fourth and goal from the three, Helton again found Baer for the score and Meigs held the early 12-0 lead with 2:43 left in the period. The Bulldogs scored just six plays later, when their outstanding junior quarterback Clay Davis hit Robert Dickelman for a 61-yard scoring pass. Drake George pulled the Bulldogs to within 12-7 with the extra point with 1:16 left in the ﬁrst period. Baer set up the Marauders’ next score when he picked off a Davis pass and returned it 17 yards to the Meigs 43. Ten plays later, Helton hit Baer from 22 yards out with 1:42 left in the half. The extra points proved to be huge, Helton hit a leaping Zach Bartrum in the end zone, but Bartrum’s toe just came down on the out of bounds line.

Raiders slay Spartans, 27-15 By Paul Boggs pboggs@aimmediamidwest.com BIDWELL, Ohio — In more ways than one on Friday night, the River Valley Raiders reversed course. Against underdog Alexander, the host Raiders relied — early and often — on a physicality and running attack that has been missing most of this football season. The change in pace, along with an overall solid defensive effort, spearheaded the Raiders to a 27-15 Tri-Valley Conference Ohio Division victory on Homecoming at River Valley High School. The Raiders, in desperately needing a win and snapping a three-game losing streak in the process, reverted to a smashmouth ﬁrst-half style that produced 156 rushing yards and two lengthy yet successful scoring drives. In the second half, the usual pass-happy Raiders got back to that bread and butter, as quarterback Patrick Brown recorded a pair of touchdown passes — for a 27-6 advantage at the 4:37 mark of the third quarter. The Spartans did make things maybe more interesting than what they should have been in the fourth, scoring nine points just two minutes apart for a 27-15 deﬁcit with just 9:47 remaining. line on 4th-down-and-4, but the Spartans were whistled for a pass interference penalty to keep the possession alive.

The Wahama football team ran for all 302 of its total yards on Friday night, as the White Falcons powered to a 33-12 victory over Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division host Eastern at East Shade River Stadium in Meigs County. After a three-and-out by each team, it was Eastern (3-4, 2-3 TVC Hocking) that broke the scoreless tie and took the 6-0 with 3:27 left in the ﬁrst quarter. EHS sophomore Mason Dishong hauled in a 15-yard scoring pass from Nate Durst on the 10th play of the Eagles’ second drive of the game, capping off a 5:26 possession. The White Falcons (2-5, 2-4) responded with their own touchdown drive, moving the ball 62 yards on 12 plays in just over ﬁve minutes. The White Falcons tied the game at six with 10:21 left in the ﬁrst half, as Christian Thomas broke a seven-yard scoring run, his ﬁrst of four in the game. Wahama’s defense forced its second threeand-out on the ensuing Eagle drive, but the punt was fumbled back to EHS, with freshman Blake Newland coming up with the loose ball. The White Falcon defense stood tall again, however, taking possession back after four plays. After another threeand-out by each side the White Falcon offense took over at the EHS 49. With nine consecutive running plays, Wahama covered the 49 yards in 3:13. From two yards out, Thomas stretched across the goal line with just 36 seconds left in the half, giving the White Falcons their ﬁrst lead. On the two-point conversion try, Bryton Grate tossed a pass to Colton Arrington, giving Waha- Raiders From page 1B run. In the third quarter, the Raider air raid Alex Hawley | OVP Sports Eastern sophomore Mason Dishong (20) crosses the goal line in front of White Falcons Bryton Grate (3) and Colton Arrington (right), during Wahama’s 33-12 win on Friday in Tuppers Plains, Ohio. ma a 14-6 advantage. Neither team scored in the the ﬁnal 36 seconds of the ﬁrst half, both teams were intercepted, as Grate hauled in an EHS pass and then Newland caught a White Falcon pass on the next play. In the ﬁrst half, Wahama held a 124-73 edge in total offense and had two more ﬁrst downs than EHS. All ﬁve of Eastern’s ﬁrst half ﬁrst downs came on its scoring drive. “It was huge for us to get that score right before halftime,” Wahama head coach Dave Barr said. “If you go in with a lead and then get the ball right back, you have a chance to kind of tip the ﬁeld over. Then, things went the way we wanted them to, as far as what they had to do to get back into the game.” The White Falcons ran 10 straight running plays out of the half, taking 6:54 off of the clock before having to punt. On Eastern’s ﬁrst play from scrimmage, a pitch was mishandled and Wahama’s Kyle Marr jumped on the fumble. The guests ran nine more running plays and with just 16 seconds left in the quarter, Thomas scored on a one-yard, fourth down run, giving WHS a 20-6 advantage. The Eagles ran a pair of pass plays before the end of the third, making just the second and third offensive snaps for EHS in the period. The Eagle defense was on the ﬁeld for 11:37 of the total 12 minutes in the third period. “When they have to stay in there and ﬁre through those wedges, it takes a toll on them,” Eastern head coach Pat Newland said of his defense. “I know a lot of people say, at Division VII you’re defensive guys are still your offensive guys, so it really doesn’t matter. But it takes its toll, especially against a team like this where they just cram the ball up the middle. We have a few kids injured so we weren’t able to sub kids in and out on the line like we’ve been able to.” Eastern earned its ﬁrst ﬁrst down since the opening period on the second play of the fourth quarter, as Noah Browning caught a pass into White Falcon territory. After another successful pass, Durst scrambled 34 yards for the touchdown, cutting Wahama’s lead to 20-12. The six-play, 62-yard drive ended with 10:25 left in regulation. The White Falcons needed little time to answer, as Arrington started the ensuing possession with a 55-yard run. On the very next play, Thomas scored on a ﬁve-yard touchdown run, giving WHS a 26-12 edge with 9:34 remaining. Eastern earned one ﬁrst down, but fell two yards short of another on a fourth down try, giving the ball back to the guests with 7:56 to play. The Red and White used 10 consecutive running plays to cover 68 yards, with Arrington delivering the ﬁnal blow from six yards out. Brady Bumgarner made the point-after kick, giving WHS a 33-12 lead with 3:21 to play. The Eagles came up six-yards shy of a ﬁrst on fourth down and EHS gave the ball the ball back to Wahama, which lined up in victory formation to seal the 33-12 triumph. “Everything kind of went the way we needed it to go for us,” Barr said. “I felt like we were really dominant running the football in the second half. I thought we played really well on defense and we were much improved in the kicking game. It was a total team effort by a whole lot of people and they have a lot to be proud of. “I’m really happy for our guys,” Barr added. “We’ve played a tough ﬁrst half of our schedule, these guys have worked hard every day in practice and they’ve never given up. Tonight, we saw a lot of what they’re capable of doing when they play their very best.” For the game, Wahama held a 302-178 advantage in total yards, holding the Eagles to just 84 rushing yards. WHS ﬁnished with a 16-9 edge in ﬁrst downs in the win, while both teams committed two turnovers. The White Falcons were penalized twice for 20 yards, while Eastern was ﬂagged once began, as Brown needed only four plays and a minute and 43 seconds to answer Alexander’s ﬁrst touchdown — a 41-yard dart by Bradley McCollister just a minute and 51 seconds into the period. Brown hooked up with Jarret McCarley for 34 yards on a deep downthe-middle route, making it 20-6 at the 8:20 mark. After another Alexander punt, Brown found Fitch deep downﬁeld as a Spartan defender fell down in coverage, and Fitch sprinted to the end zone for a 68-yard strike at the 4:37 point. Gilmore made his third PAT kick, giving River Valley its largest lead at 27-6. Brown completed 6-of-11 passes for 127 yards — with Fitch making three receptions for 74 yards and McCarley catching two for 44. The Raiders held a 19-13 advantage in ﬁrst downs, and outgained Alexander by a count of 338-202. “We connected on the perimeter and our offensive line and quarterback and receivers did a nice job,” said Sparling. “That’s a total offensive effort when you can run the football to set up the pass and connect on your opportunities. If we’re not able to run the ball the way we did earlier, I don’t think those shots happen. We forced their hand to get out of some structure and once they did, we adjusted and threw the football well.” Still, the Spartans stayed close, and after Gilmore missed a 26-yard ﬁeld goal with a minute left in the third, Alexander struck for its ﬁnal nine points in a matter of two minutes and two seconds. With only 11 seconds elapsed in the fourth quarter, Conner Kimbrough bolted 52 yards for a score — as Marcus Spaulding’s extra point made it 27-13. Then, as River Valley attempted a punt in the shadow of its own goalpost, the Raiders botched the snap — and Gilmore ultimately was penalized for intentional Gallipolis, Ohio 357 Jackson Pike | (740) 446-9696 Customized marketing solutions: Weekly auctions and special sales (fed, feeder and cull cattle) Internet cattle sales and online listings Daily markets and direct sales Order buying services Financing and loans Risk management Weekly Auction: Wednesday at 10 a.m. Receiving hours: COIN SHOW Thirteen Dealers featuring MTS Coins of Gallipolis Sunday, Oct. 8 10am-3pm Quality Inn (formerly Holiday Inn) Tuesday: 4-8 p.m. Wednesday: 7 a.m.-12 p.m. Free Admission Your Local UPI Representatives: Ryan Vaughn (304) 514-1858 Gold Coin Raffle Mark Neal (740) 645-5708 Prizes Kurt Schenkel (740) 208-0035 Buying and Selling US.

We just have to clean all that stuff up.” Arrington led all players with 139 yards on 17 carries, with one touchdown. Thomas found paydirt four times and earned 128 yards on 25 carries. Bumgarner contributed 23 yards on nine carries, while Grate added 14 yards on four scampers for WHS. On defense, Grate intercepted a pass, Marr recovered a fumble, while Arrington and Jacob Fisher both added a sack. For Eastern, Durst — who was 9-of-23 passing for 94 yards and one touchdown — led the ground attack with 54 yards and one score on eight tries. Browning ran the ball once and hauled in three passes, gaining 43 total yards, while Josh Brewer combined 11 rushes with one reception for 33 total yards. Steven Fitzgerald carried the ball twice for a total of six yards, while Dishong caught two passes for 17 yards and one touchdown. Blaise Facemyer, Sharp Facemyer and Dylan Creath each caught one pass, gaining 15, six and four yards respectively. Eastern’s defense was led by Blake Newland with an interception and a fumble recovery, while Will Oldaker came up with a sack. Wahama had lost four straight games away from Bachtel Stadium, prior to Friday. In the series between WHS and EHS, the road team has now been victorious ﬁve straight years in this series.

As a result of the safety with 9:47 remaining, the Spartans got the ball back trailing by just two touchdowns — but an eight-play, four-minute and 10-second drive netted only eight yards. The Raiders then went three-and-out, but Alexander’s ﬁnal drive — featuring two completions and three straight incompletions — ended when quarterback Kaleb Easley was sacked at his own 31. Kimbrough rushed for 86 yards on 11 carries for the Spartans, as McCollister added 76 yards on 14 tries. The Raiders return to TVC Ohio action next Friday night — when they venture to Vinton County. “Anytime you get a ‘W’ and some momentum because you did some nice things, you hope that carries over into the next week,” said Sparling. “We’re a young football team and success can be a trap, so we have to be on the guys to handle this maturely.” Paul Boggs can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 2106 For the best local sports coverage, visit MyDailySentinel.com �SPORTS Sunday Times-Sentinel Sunday, October 8, 2017 3B Blue Angels rally past Ironton the next four points and led the remainder of the way to a 25-19 win.

It was also Gallia Academy’s only lead of the night. CGHS followed with a six-play, 55-yard drive that ended with a 29-yard touchdown pass from Nate Harmon to Joey Workman. Evan Holmes added a successful PAT kick with 9:06 remaining, giving the guests a 7-6 edge. The Blue Devils were forced to punt on their ensuing drive, then the Hornets marched 68 yards in nine plays before building on their ﬁrst quarter lead. Aaron Music completed the drive with a 7-yard run as the ﬁrst quarter clock expired, giving the Red and Black a 13-6 lead after 12 minutes of play. Music came away with an interception on the following GAHS drive, then Coal Grove covered 59 yards in nine plays as Harmon capped things with a 1-yard run. Music added a successful PAT run at the 5:35 mark, allowing the Hornets to secure a 21-6 cushion. Gallia Academy answered with a 10-play, 67-yard drive that ended with a 4-yard Pullins run. Caleb Henry hauled in a pass from McClelland for a two-point conversion, making it a 21-14 contest with 1:22 remaining until halftime. Both teams traded possessions to start the third period, with Coal Grove retaining possession at its own 19 with 3:15 remaining. The guests put together a 9-play, 81-yard drive that ended with a Kyle Sites 4-yard scamper three seconds into the fourth, making it a 27-14 contest. Following a loss of downs for the Blue Devils, Kimo Baldwin capped a 9-play, 73-yard drive with a 25-yard run at the 4:33 mark for a 33-14 advantage. McClelland found Call on a 64-yard bomb just 16 seconds later as the hosts wrapped up the 13-point outcome. Coal Grove claimed a 23-17 advantage in ﬁrst downs and outgained GAHS by a 419-298 overall margin.

Hornets From page 1B to leave with their fourth straight victory while also staying unbeaten in conference play. The Blue Devils produced 298 yards of total offense, with 140 of those coming in the ﬁrst half. The difference, however, was that the hosts managed only nine of their 81 rushing yards after halftime, while Coal Grove churned out 211 rushing yards in the second half. After the game, GAHS coach Alex Penrod was disappointed in the ﬁnal outcome — but noted that his troops gave a very respectable performance. “I was very proud of the effort these young men gave tonight. Obviously the score doesn’t show what our ultimate goal was, but we kept ﬁghting and battling until the very last second … and that’s what we’ve asked of them,” Penrod said. “We knew coming into the year that this wasn’t something that we were going to ﬁx overnight, but we are changing some of the positives like believing in one another and never giving up until the ﬁnal whistle. “We did those little Bulldogs Dave Harris is a Sports Correspondent for Ohio Valley Publishing. 30 yards. Pullins led Gallia Academy with 49 yards on 19 carries, followed by McClelland with 24 yards on 10 attempts. McClelland was also 15-of-22 passing for 217 yards, throwing one touchdown and zero interceptions. John Stout led the GAHS wideouts with six catches for 63 yards, followed by Call with four grabs for 97 yards and a score. Sites paced the Hornet rushing attack with 161 yards on 25 carries, followed by Harmon with 94 yards on 14 tries. Harmon was also 4-of-9 passing for 81 yards, all of which came in the ﬁrst half. Jeb Jones led the CGHS wideouts with two catches for 44 yards. Workman (29 yards) and Sam Angelo (8 yards) also had a reception apiece for the victors. With three weeks left in the regular season, Penrod believes that these Blue Devils still have a lot that they can accomplish — even if the OVC championship is likely out of the picture. “We’re deﬁnitely not done. These kids have worked too hard to get where we are right now and these kids still have fall... high expectations on ﬁnishing out the season,” Penrod said. “A league title might be out of our grasp at this point, but we still have a chance to have a say in who wins the league title over the next three weeks. We also have a chance to ﬁnish with a winning record, so I’m sure the kids will be ready to give each of our next three opponents our best shot.” Gallia Academy returns to action Friday when it travels to Rock Hill for a Week 8 OVC contest at 7 p.m. Bryan Walters can be reached at 740-446-2342, ext. 2101.

DeSousa leads RedStorm past OCU By Randy Payton For Ohio Valley Publishing RIO GRANDE, Ohio — Daniella DeSousa scored a pair of goals to lead the University of Rio Grande to a historic 3-0 victory over Ohio Christian University, Thursday night, in River States Conference women’s soccer action at Evan E. Davis Field. The RedStorm evened their overall record at 5-5 with a fourth straight win, while also moving to 3-0 in conference play. The four game winning streak is Rio’s ﬁrst since the 2015 season when the RedStorm defeated Carlow University, Brescia University and Midway University in their ﬁnal three regular season games and knocked off Carlow again in the quarterﬁnal round of the then-KIAC Tournament. The victory also marked the fourth consecutive shutout for the RedStorm - a ﬁrst in the program’s history. DeSousa, a sophomore from Cape Town, South Africa, scored what proved to be the only goal that Rio would need at the 29:31 mark of the opening half when she gathered in a deﬂected pass an blistered a shot past OCU keeper Emily Boyd into the upper right corner of the net.

Senior Jenna Jones (Lancaster, OH) set the ﬁnal score with 1:58 remaining in the contest, scoring her ﬁrst goal of the season via a header off a corner kick opportunity by junior Olivia Slone (Huntington, WV).

That’s because, for the second time this soccer season, the Alexander Spartans shut out the Gallia Academy Blue Devils 7-0 in a non-league tilt. On Thursday night, the host Spartans completed the season sweep — having also won by the exact same count at Gallia Academy’s Lester Field on Sept. 16. In the return bout, Alexander scored three ﬁrst-half goals and four second-half tallies, as only the opening goal of the second half — by Eric Mansﬁeld — was assisted. Austin Shields scored the game’s initial marker with 16 minutes and 42 seconds remaining before halftime, as Michael Norris notched the next three goals — including the last off Mansﬁeld’s assist — to make it 4-0 with 27-and-a-half minutes to play. Norris netted his other two goals at the 4:17 and 1:26 points of the ﬁrst stanza. Shields scored his second goal just a minute-and-a-half after Norris completed his hat trick, as Luke Foster found the net with 20:55 remaining to make it 6-0. Finally, with exactly two minutes left, Tyler Fritchley ﬁnished off the scoring — and the second 7-0 Spartans’ decision over the young Blue Devils. The loss left Gallia Academy at 1-10-4, as the Blue Devils have been outscored in those 10 defeats 53-5. They have been blanked six times, and have now allowed at least seven goals on ﬁve separate occasions. Thursday’s contest also marked the Blue Devils’ ﬁfth match in eight days.

Not all gray faces, however, are created equal. And they’re not all nameless either. When Pittsburgh (3-1) welcomes Jacksonville (2-2) to Heinz Field on Sunday, the league’s second-ranked defense doesn’t need to be told about the big kid in the Jaguars’ backﬁeld. The Steelers are well aware of the 240 pounds of controlled fury rookie running back Leonard Fournette brings each time the ball is in his hands. Last they checked, they’re not exactly small themselves. “We’re 6-6, 300 pounds, you think we’re not big dudes?” defensive end Stephon Tuitt said. “We’re big, athletic fast dudes. We know he is going to be at the same time. This is the type of matchup that we like, and they’re going to know that this Sunday.” Funny, it didn’t look like Pittsburgh enjoyed itself the last time it faced a power run team. The Bears plowed through the Steelers for 222 yards in an overtime upset two weeks ago. Though Pittsburgh held Baltimore in check in a one-sided victory in Week 4, the Ravens ran the ball only 15 times. Jacksonville might top that number in the ﬁrst quarter if the quartet led by Fournette gets going. “We try to think of it almost like a Chicago redo because they have a myriad of backs and because they rely on the run,” Steelers defensive end Cam Heyward said. “We have a chance to test ourselves again.” And the Jaguars have a chance to prove the promise they’ve shown during their competent start isn’t a mirage. Jacksonville squandered a shot at generating real early-season momentum when it fell in overtime to the New York Jets last week, though it’s hard to blame Fournette, who racked up 145 combined yards and scored for the fourth straight game. The only thing Fournette hasn’t done is showcase the breakaway speed that comes along with all that brawn. His longest run is 17 yards. The Steelers have given up at least one run of 25 yards or more in each of their last three games. “You’re kind of waiting for it because every time, it seems like it’s right there,” Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles said. “It’s almost an explosive. He’s a tackle or a shoelace away from busting a big one. A block here or there away. I think it’ll come.” Some other things to look for as Pittsburgh attempts to avoid a setback ahead of a trip to Kansas City for a playoff rematch. The Jaguars keep searching for legitimacy. DING DONG: Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell appeared to ﬁnally shake off the rust against the Ravens, piling up 186 yards from scrimmage as Pittsburgh posted its most lopsided victory in Baltimore since the Ravens bolted from Cleve- land more than two decades ago. He’ll face a Jacksonville defense that is ﬁrst against the pass, though maybe that’s because opponents are averaging 4.8 yards per carry. Bell also had a season-high 39 touches in Baltimore, though Tomlin isn’t overly concerned about overworking Bell. “His workload is something that I continually monitor,” Tomlin said. “And when we choose to utilize him in the ways that we did last week, it’s a conscious decision. So, I’m not worried about naysayers and things of that nature.” BALL HOGS: Jacksonville’s best chance to keep Pittsburgh’s offense in check is holding onto the ball, something that’s been an issue for the Jaguars. Jacksonville is 29th in the league in third-down conversions (31 percent). The Steelers aren’t much better (25th at 36 percent), but Pittsburgh has shown the big-play ability to snap out of offensive lulls quickly. The Jaguars, meanwhile, remain a work in progress. Surprising Bills get tested in Cincinnati CINCINNATI (AP) — First place in the AFC East. A record that’s tied for second-best in the NFL. A defense that’s stingier than any other in Bills history so far. It’s been quite a start for Buffalo, which heads to Cincinnati to face a team that can bring the Bills back to earth or land with a thud of its own. The Bills (3-1) need another shutdown performance from their defense Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium to show they’re more than a one-month wonder. Cincinnati (1-3) is show- ing signs of getting its act together under a new offensive coordinator. The Bengals need this one far more desperately. Two teams — the Dolphins and the Giants — started 2-3 last season and reached the playoffs. A victory Sunday would give the Bengals hope of climbing out of their early hole, though there’s no room for error. A loss would send them into their bye week knowing they’re pretty much ﬁnished. “We need to ﬁnd a way to win this one,” quarterback Andy Dalton said. “This one is important.” For the Bills, a win on the road against a desperate team would provide evidence than they’re more than an early blip in the long NFL season. Many fans are still wondering: Why are these guys in ﬁrst place? And how did their defense get to be so good overnight? “We’re, like you said, kind of the motley crew,” defensive end Eddie Yarbrough said. “We deﬁnitely embrace that. And hey, some of us are the guys that nobody wanted, but we’re making statements and we’re out here to prove people wrong, so (we’re) excited for the opportunity.” Buffalo’s offense hasn’t done much, failing to gain 300 yards in any of the past three games. A redesigned defense has made the difference . Sean McDermott became head coach after six seasons as Carolina’s defensive coordinator and switched from Rex Ryan’s 3-4 to a 4-3 alignment. It’s working beautifully. The Bills have held their ﬁrst four opponents to 17 points or fewer for the ﬁrst time in their history. With a victory Sunday, McDermott would become the ﬁrst coach in team history to win four of his ﬁrst ﬁve games. Rio men blast Blazers By Randy Payton For Ohio Valley Publishing RIO GRANDE, Ohio — Spencer Reinford had a pair of ﬁrst half goals, while Deri Corfe scored twice and assisted on another marker in the second half to lead the University of Rio Grande in a 5-0 win over Ohio Christian University, Thursday night, in River States Conference men’s soccer action at Evan E. Davis Field. The RedStorm, who are ranked No. 3 in the latest NAIA coaches’ poll, won for the seventh straight and improved to 9-1 overall and 3-0 inside the conference. OCU slipped to 2-8 overall and 0-2 in the RSC with the loss. Rio Grande controlled the match from the outset, ﬁnishing with a commanding 43-2 edge in shots overall, a 17-1 cushion in shots on goal and a 14-1 advantage in corner kick opportunities. Reinford, a junior from McAlisterville, Pa., staked the RedStorm to a 2-0 lead at the intermission by scoring on a pair of headers - one off an entry pass from the left wing by senior Matheus Morgan (Vila Velha, Brazil) at the 8:57 mark and another off a right wing delivery by junior Harry Reilly (Coventry, England) just over 29 minutes later. All six of Reinford’s goals this season have come in the team’s last four games. Corfe, a sophomore from Chester, England, got his assist on a goal by sophomore James Williamson (San Jose, Costa Rica) at 58:57 before added unassisted scores at 65:09 at 73:15 to set the ﬁnal tally.
