The parade begins at 7 p.m. Monday during Gallipolis’ annual River Recreation Festival. Payne, of Rio Grande, was the recipient of the 2016 Bud and Donna McGhee Community Service Award given out each year by the Gallia County Chamber of Commerce earlier this year. Each year, the winner of this award is honored as parade marshal. Payne was born and raised in Gallia County, graduated from Cadmus High School, and then attended the University of Rio Grande, where she studied law. Born in a log cabin, located on Symms Creek, she was the youngest of eight children, with four older brothers and three older sisters. There were a number of cherished family activities she enjoyed as a child, such as gathering in the living room for Bible study each evening after dinner. Payne said that is how she learned to read at an early age — because each of the children had to read from the Bible, with the whole family listening. Sunday was a special day, she said, attending Sunday School and church, then going home to a meal of fried chicken. It was the custom to feed the pastor and his family on Sundays. It was well known they went to her family’s household as their choice, and would get the best pieces of chicken. As she told friends, “You were lucky if you got a wing.” Payne makes it clear, the Lord was always in her family’s home. Another precious memory from her childhood was going to the Emancipation Celebration at Bush Park, between Bidwell and Porter. Her father would borrow horses from a neighbor, put straw in the bed of the wagon for the children to sit on; her mother would ﬁx a basket of food and when they arrived, everyone would put their dinners together and share the meal. Payne began to volunteer at Holzer Medical Center in 1973 and continues to do so. Holzer is not the only organization to which she gives her time to as a valued volunteer. She also assists Community Action, Serenity House, the Black History Board, See PAYNE | 7A HIGH HONORS Jessie Payne was the recipient earlier this year of the Gallia County Chamber of Commerce’s surprise Bud and Donna McGhee Community Service Award, which is only announced the night of the chamber’s annual meeting and banquet awards. It is considered by many to be the highest honor the chamber can bestow. The winner of the yearly award is also chosen to serve as the parade marshal of Gallipolis’ annual Independence Day parade through downtown.

COLUMBUS – Ohio has joined a growing national effort to reduce the number of persons with mental illness who cycle through county jails. State and county ofﬁcials in mid-June convened in Columbus to learn how the national Stepping Up Initiative is bringing local criminal justice and behavioral health systems together to improve public safety, access to services, and treatment outcomes. The Stepping Up Initiative was launched in May 2015 as a part- nership of the Council of State Governments Justice Center, the National Association of Counties and the American Psychiatric Association Foundation. The initiative is designed to rally national, state and local leaders around the goal of reducing the number of people with mental illnesses and substance use disorders in jail. “Ohio has been a leader in establishing mental health and veterans courts, developing crisis intervention teams in law enforcement and other efforts to reform the criminal justice system for persons with mental illness,” said retired Ohio Supreme Court Justice Evelyn Lundberg Stratton, who serves as project director of the Ohio Stepping Up Initiative. “Once again, we are proud to be a leader in a national effort. Our work through the Stepping Up Initiative will improve public safety, break the cycle of jail for persons with mental illness, and increase their access to treatment.” Jail administrators, law enforcement ofﬁcials, elected ofﬁcials, See STEPPING | 2A �OBITUARIES/LOCAL 2A Sunday, July 3, 2016 OBITUARIES Stepping Chad Cox, Tammy (Leonard) Mollohan, Cindy (J.P.)

Their objectives were twofold: cultivating friendliness among physicians’ families and promoting better relations between the profession and the public. The name was later changed to the Cabell County Medical Society Alliance to follow the American Medical Association Alliance’s new name. Over the years, the organization has held health fairs and provided smoking damage information to ﬁfthand sixth-grade students in the county for many years. However, CCMSA’s longtime partnership with the School of Medicine goes beyond fundraising and scholarships. One of the projects it is most proud of is the Family Life Education program. For more than 34 years, CCMSA has been partnering with the School of Medicine to teach preteen students about puberty, hygiene, anatomy and reproduction. Teachers may request a classroom visit from a CCMSA member and a family medicine resident physician. Students can anonymously submit written questions to be discussed by the member and the physician during their visit. “As spouses of physicians, we pledge to support their ideals and activities,” said Turner. “This has proved to be a win-win experience for Choosing your first Medicare health plan is a big decision the teacher, students, Alliance member and the family practice resident.” For more information on scholarships or to make a gift to the Marshall University Joan C.

THEIR VIEW Securing today and tomorrow GALLIPOLIS — Your ﬁrst job is a landmark occasion. You’re meeting new people, making professional connections, and probably cashing that ﬁrst paycheck. You might be a little surprised when you see a portion of your earnings go to a tax called “FICA” for the Federal Insurance Contributions Act. This deduction goes to Social Security and is your way of helping us secure your today and tomorrow. It’s our job to keep the safety net of Social Security strong through your incremental contributions. Understanding how important your contribution is takes some of the sting away because your taxes are helping millions of Americans. By law, employers must withhold Social Security taxes from workers’ paychecks. parents, for example While referred Marcus — who already to as “Social Geiger enjoy beneﬁts that Security taxes” on an employee’s Contributing your Social Security columnist taxes help provide. pay statement, Social Security is sometimes the completely solvent deduction is through 2033.

O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive; O Lord, hearken and do; defer not, for thine own sake, O my God: for thy city and thy people are called by thy name.” It amazes me how many times Daniel used the words “we” and “us” in reference to the sins of the people. A man of whom not one negative word in Scripture is ever said was nonetheless humble enough to view himself as part of the problem. Does a prayer like that work? One year later they were allowed to go home. Shortly after that the temple was rebuilt. And then the wall around Jerusalem. America is in a disastrous state now, much like Israel was then. We are balkanized, drowning in debt, violence ﬁlls our land, and people cannot even agree on the problems, much less the solution. But as we approach Independence Day, the good news is that the fate of America still rests as much on the citizen as on the legislator. And when citizens pray — truly pray — when we speak to God as Daniel did, things can change. We know of Daniel’s citizen prayer, may I humbly offer my citizen prayer, and urge everyone who cares to sincerely pray it. “Dear God of heaven, you have birthed and blessed this land, yet I and my people have done great wickedness in it, and the turmoil we See PRAYER | 7A �LOCAL Sunday Times-Sentinel Sunday, July 3, 2016 7A Rotary installs new president LIVESTOCK REPORT Staff report GALLIPOLIS — United Producers Inc., livestock report of sales from June 29, 2016.

Martin has constructed several feats of engineering by extending the rooms of buildings on his property. He’s also built multiple skating pools and features on his property. His home features a skateboard museum that begins at the dawn of skateboard history with sport relics dating back to the 1960s. He says skateboards originally evolved from the scooter. Martin has also constructed stages on his property for the musicians who attend “Bowl Bash.” Skatopia often has been touted as “enter at your own risk,” but the owner says it’s more than just a place to party. Martin has often associated with the philosophical idea of anarchy. A documentary was once ﬁlmed of Skatopia called “88 Acres of Anarchy.” According to colleague Tim Tice, Skatopia is about living how you want without being trapped by society and not believing perceived illusions that one so often ﬁnds in life.

To him, it’s about marching to the beat of one’s own drum and encouraging others who visit Skatopia to do the same. “I wear this shirt every time I get on the plane,” said Martin. “I want people to ask about (the lifestyle) and tell them its our ‘jihad.’” Dean Wright can be reached at (740) 46-2342, Ext. 2103.

Rio Grande ﬁnished with an average of 10.95, trailing only Point Park University, which took the top spot for a second straight year and the third time in four years with an average of 11.31. The KIAC Commissioner’s Cup standings are tabulated based on the regular-season standings in each of the KIAC’s 15 championship sports. The sports of cross country, golf and track and ﬁeld use the championship meets to determine standings. With 13 schools in the conference, 13 points are awarded for ﬁrst place, 12 for second place and so on. Each school’s point total is divided by the number of sports sponsored at that school to produce an average. An average of 13.00 would represent a perfect score and ﬁrst place in every sponsored sport. Point Park scored 147 total points in their 13 sports, while Rio Grande had 120.5 points in its 11 sports. “On behalf of all of our 13 member schools, I’d like to congratulate Point Park University, Director of Athletics Dan Swalga and all of the Pioneers on defending their KIAC Commissioner’s Cup title this year,” said Scott McClure, KIAC Commissioner. “Winning the Commissioner’s Cup competition requires a total team effort by the entire athletic department as well as institutional support, and Point Park University continues to be a model of consistency and excellence.” Point Park’s KIAC Cup win was built on ﬁnishing ﬁrst, second or third in its division in all 13 of its sports. The Pioneers claimed ﬁrstplace points with KIAC championships in men’s and women’s cross country. Point Park claimed second place in men’s and women’s track and ﬁeld, women’s soccer and men’s golf. Rio Grande jumped from fourth place after the winter season to second place in the ﬁnal standings. That came after the RedStorm claimed KIAC spring championships in men’s and women’s track and ﬁeld and softball. In men’s soccer, Rio Grande won the KIAC championship and the NAIA national championship. Rio ﬁnished second in both men’s and women’s cross country, third in women’s soccer, fourth in women’s basketball and baseball, sixth in volleyball and tied for eighth in men’s basketball. IU East placed third with an average of 10.45, IU Southeast was fourth at 10.14 and Asbury was ﬁfth at 9.97. The rest of the standings included Brescia (8.47), WVU Tech (8.25), Ohio Christian (7.67), IU Kokomo (7.36), Carlow (6.87), Cincinnati See RIO | 2B OVP SPORTS SCHEDULE Sunday, July 3 American Legion Baseball Waverly at Pomeroy Post 39 (DH), 11 a.m. Wednesday, July 6 American Legion Baseball Lancaster at Pomeroy Post 39, 6 p.m. Friday, July 8 American Legion Baseball Beverly at Pomeroy Post 39, 6 p.m. Thursday, July 14 American Legion Baseball Athens at Pomeroy Post 39, 6 p.m. Tuesday, July 19 American Legion Baseball Pomeroy Post 39 at Jackson, 6 p.m. Thursday, July 21 American Legion Baseball Jackson at Pomeroy Post 39, 6 p.m. OVP Top 5 of 2015-16 Bryan Walters | OVP Sports Point Pleasant senior Cody Mitchell releases a throw in the Class AAA discus final held at Laidley Field in Charleston, W.Va. No. 1: Point’s Cody Mitchell enjoys memorable senior season By Bryan Walters bwalters@civitasmedia.com POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. — Cody Mitchell would be the ﬁrst person to tell you that a lot of important people played a major role in how well his senior year — and his career — went at Point Pleasant High School. What he wouldn’t tell you, although he probably has been told, is how much those same important people enjoyed having him on their team — rather than playing against him. The 6-foot-3, 235-pound jack of all trades made major headlines throughout the Mountain State this past school year, rather it was on the gridiron, his signing to play football at Marshall University or competing in throwing events this past spring in track and ﬁeld. And for those variety of reasons, Mitchell was deemed the top story to come out of the Ohio Valley Publishing area. Mitchell rushed for 2,321 yards and 43 touchdowns on 178 carries while leading the Big Blacks to a 12-1 overall mark and a Class AAA state semiﬁnal appearance. Mitchell also amassed 101 tackles and 5.5 sacks for a defense that yielded just 11.7 points per game. Mitchell — who was part of teams that went 41-6 during his four years of varsity football — owns several school records, including most touchdowns (101), rushing yards (5,197) and all-purpose yards (7,233) over a career. Mitchell also owns a state playoff record in Class AAA with seven rushing touchdowns in a game. For his efforts, Mitchell became the ﬁrst Point Pleasant athlete to ever win the Gatorade Player of the Year in West Virginia in early December, then was named the Ohio Valley Publishing offensive player of the year, the WVMetroNews player of the year, a ﬁrst-team all-state selection by USA Today, and also came away with 2015 Curt Warner Award — which goes to the top running back in the state of West Virginia. Mitchell was a major part of a 2015 campaign in which the Big Blacks set state records for rushing yards and points scored in a season. The two-time ﬁrst team Class AAA selection was also part of Point Pleasant’s current 33-game regular season winning streak — which is currently best in the entire Mountain State. The only big award that Mitchell didn’t come away with was the Kennedy Award, the annual honor given to West Virginia’s top football player. Mitchell ﬁnished second in the voting to Capital quarterback Tyrhee Pratt, a West Virginia University signee. During the 2015 football campaign, Mitchell averaged 10 yards per carry and over 178 rushing yards per game while also contributing just under four touchdowns per contest. Mitchell was also the Big Blacks’ leading receiver with 15 catches for 213 yards. For his career, Mitchell is atop the PPHS leaderboard in touchdowns (39) and all-purpose yards (2,512) in a season. Mitchell is also second all-time in a career in both receiving yards (1,096) and receptions (67). Mitchell owns both the shot put and discus records at Point Pleasant in boys track and ﬁeld, and he also earned ﬁve podium ﬁnishes at the state meet in those two events. Mitchell was the 2015 shot put runner-up, ﬁnished second in the discus in 2014 and was also fourth in the 2013 discus ﬁnal at the Class AAA level. Then, during his ﬁnal weekend wearing Point Pleasant’s colors, Mitchell Alex Hawley | OVP Sports Point Pleasant senior Cody Mitchell (14) looks for additional yardage during a Class AAA quarterfinal playoff game against Huntington at OVB Field in Point Pleasant, W.Va. redeﬁned his prep career at the state track meet at Laidley Field. Mitchell earned a pair of podium ﬁnishes, which included a second place effort in the shot put on Saturday morning before capturing gold just hours later in the discus event. What’s more, Mitchell’s winning throw of 173 feet, 6 inches in the discus event came on his sixth and ﬁnal attempt of the day. Only one competitor had a single throw following Mitchell’s winning heave, but that last toss wasn’t enough to knock Mitchell off the top of the podium. Mitchell accounted for all 18 of the Black Knights’ points at the state meet, which tied both Ripley and Huntington for 14th place overall. Mitchell, who was the 2014 AAA runner-up in the state discus ﬁnal, became the ﬁrst male athlete from PPHS to win gold at Laidley Field since Tanner Hill won the AAA shot put crown in 2014. Cody also joined some pretty elite company in his own household. His dad, Darrell, won the 1986 discus title before heading to West Virginia University for football, while his brother Derek won the 171-pound individual wrestling title in Class AA in 2009 before walking on as a linebacker at Marshall. Cody is considering Exercise Science as a possible major at MU, but he is still ofﬁcially undecided. Cody held a 3.7 GPA at Point Pleasant High School and is the son of Darrell and Debbie Mitchell of Point Pleasant. Other D-1 programs with interest in Cody for football included Indiana, Northwestern, Wake Forest and West Virginia. Mitchell was the only 2016 Marshall signee to come from within the Mountain State.

That’s because Post 39 lost its 11th consecutive contest on Thursday evening, falling 8-1 at Beverly-Lowell Legion Post 389/750 in a nonleague tilt at Fort Frye High School. Beverly-Lowell scored three runs in the second inning and ﬁve runs in the third inning for an 8-0 lead, while Pomeroy plated its only run in the ﬁfth. As Beverly-Lowell pitcher Tyler Bradford worked all seven innings for the victory while striking out eight, Post 39 committed four errors — as only three of BeverlyLowell’s eight runs were earned. With the loss, Post 39 fell to 1-11 for the season — winning 9-0 at Parkersburg Post 15 in the opener. Bradford won his ﬁfth game of the summer for Post 389/750, as the Washington County club climbed to 19-10.

I’m pretty sure I have said this before, but conservation isn’t pretty – it’s not even cute. It’s not all about saving bald eagles or baby seals. I am reminded of that when I am sitting there on the bank or on a gravel bar, poring through pebbles and sand with a pair of tweezers plucking out the bugs and sticking them in a specimen jar to be identiﬁed and counted later. Those bugs are taking one for the team in the name of science. The annual ﬁsh assessment is held later in the year, and it involves wading the streams and using a netted electric wand to zap ﬁsh to the surface so they can be identiﬁed and counted. Unlike the bugs, the ﬁsh get released (I consider it the ﬁsh equivalent of an alien abduction and imagine the ﬁsh telling other, unbelieving ﬁsh about the experience). In short, all of these different ways of monitoring help researchers determine the health of the stream and give it one of designations: Exceptional Warmwater Habitat, Warmwater Habitat, Modiﬁed Warmwater Habitat, and Limited Resource Water. Ideally all streams would attain Warmwater Habitat, with Exceptional Warmwater Habitat streams meriting the most protection and Limited Resource Waters lacking the potential for any aquatic life habitat.

Each KIAC member school nominates one male studentathlete for the award each year. Conference athletic directors cast the voting with one winner chosen across all KIAC sports. Paulino, a junior forward from Sao Paulo, Brazil, had a team-high 19 goals and 43 points for Rio Grande, which had an historic season with a ﬁnal record of 23-1 overall and an NAIA men’s soccer national championship. “Certainly, it’s an honor for Will as an individual to win this award, but it’s also an Courtesy photo honor for our men’s soccer University of Rio Grande junior men’s soccer player Willian Paulino has been voted the 2015-16 KIAC Male Athlete of the Year, the conference announced Thursday night. See PAULINO | 5B LeBron a free agent after declining option on contract CLEVELAND (AP) — LeBron James is about to hit the free-agency market and stay right at home. James declined his player option for next season with the NBA champion Cavaliers, but the ﬁnals MVP has made it clear he has no intention of leaving Cleveland anytime soon. He had until midnight Wednesday to pick up the option, which would have paid him $24 million next season. The 31-year-old superstar has been a free agent the past three summers, electing each time to sign two-year contracts with a player option for the second season. It’s not yet clear if he’ll sign another short-term deal or a multiyear package. His agent, Rich Paul, told The Associated Press there is no timetable on when James will re-sign or what type of contract he’ll pursue. With the league’s salary cap poised to swell dramatically in 2017-18 thanks to a $24 billion TV deal, James may opt for another short-term deal and seek a maximum contract next summer. James’ decision to go year to year has allowed him to maintain ﬂexibility while keeping pressure on Cavs ownership to continue to add quality players. The Cavs, who won their ﬁrst title — and ended Cleveland’s 52-year championship drought — by becoming the ﬁrst team to overcome a 3-1 deﬁcit in the ﬁnals, have Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love under contract for three more seasons. Also, forward Tristan Thompson has four years remaining on his contract. BANKS CONSTRUCTION COMPANY PEACE OF MIND...

He’s a humble guy and I know he’s honored. We’re equally as honored that he’s part of our program – he’s a great representative of the University of Rio Grande.” Rio Grande was ranked No. 1 in the nation all year. Paulino’s 19 goals led a RedStorm offense that ranked second in the nation with 93 total goals on the year. Paulino was 12th in the nation in goals and 15th in points. KIAC Offensive Player of the Year honors went to Paulino as well with the RedStorm going a perfect 6-0 in conference play and winning the KIAC Tournament. Other awards included NAIA Men’s Soccer All-America First Team and NAIA Men’s Soccer National Championship AllTournament Team. Paulino led Rio Grande with ﬁve game-winning goals. He had two goals in a key 3-0 win over NAIA Top 25-ranked WVU Tech in a key KIAC showdown that kept the RedStorm atop the conference and national rankings. For Ohio Valley Publishing FLORENCE, Ky. — University of Rio Grande senior women’s basketball player Sarah Bonar is the 2015-16 female recipient of the KIAC’s Bill Melton Champion of Character Award. A native of Hartford, Ohio, Bonar was the leading scorer for the RedStorm this past year as well as a CoSIDA Academic All-America First Team selection and a very active community service volunteer. “I feel very honored to have been chosen and I appreciate the chance to represent the KIAC in this way,” Bonar said. “It has been a privilege to be a collegiate athlete at Rio and to be a part of something much larger than myself. I can’t thank the athletic department and the coaching staff enough for all of their help and putting me in the right place to be successful.” The KIAC’s Bill Melton Champion of Character Award is named after the former KIAC commissioner, who was in that role for many years and up through July 2015. The award is modeled after the NAIA’s Dr. Leroy Walker Award and promotes and recognizes the core values of the NAIA’s Champions of Character program which are respect, responsibility, integrity servant leadership and sportsmanship. Nominations are made by KIAC member athletic departments, and voting is conducted by the KIAC awards committee, which a group made up of athletic directors, coaches and sports information directors around the conference. One male and one female recipient of the Bill Melton Courtesy Photo University of Rio Grande senior Sarah Bonar (33) ranked third in the KIAC in scoring at 17.7 ppg, ranked second in field-goal percentage at 49.4 percent and was an all-conference first-team selection this past year.

On the court, Bonar ranked third in the KIAC in scoring at 17.7 ppg this past year. A 5-11 forward, she ranked second in the conference in ﬁeld-goal percentage at 49.4 percent and was an all-conference ﬁrstteam selection. Academically, she boasted a 3.94 GPA majoring in biology and biomedical and minoring in chemistry. That earned her one of the ﬁve spots on the prestigious CoSIDA College Division Academic All-America First Team and another NAIA-Daktronics Scholar- Athlete nod. In the community, Bonar was very active. She volunteered at many outlets such as with the Buckeye Hills Recreational Program, the Senior Citizens Outreach Program, the Hartford Optimist Club, the American Red Cross and the Salvation Army to name a few. She provided leadership as a Champions of Character spokeswoman on athletic recruiting days at Rio Grande where the NAIA’s ﬁve core values are discussed with potential recruits. She was also a member of the Rio Grande’s Leadership Council and the KIAC Association of StudentAthletes. “Sarah embodies the deﬁnition of “servant leadership” putting the team above oneself, not only in sports but in the community and personal life as well,” Rio Grande women’s basketball coach Dave Smalley said in Bonar’s nomination for the award. “Sarah has been the most complete, trustworthy, responsible, caring, nurturing and mentoring team captain in all my 24 years of coaching at Rio Grande.” Randy Payton is the Sports Information Director at the University of Rio Grande.

(AP) — Coastal Carolina showed that a baseball program from a school outside the power conferences can play with the best, and be the best. “All my brothers in arms at the mid-majors, they’ve been wearing my telephone out the whole week: ‘Wear the banner for us. Show us it can be done,’” Chanticleers coach Gary Gilmore said after his team beat Arizona 4-3 in the deciding Game 3 of the College World Series ﬁnals Thursday. Coastal Carolina won its ﬁrst national championship in any sport, and it came in the Chanticleers’ 14th national tournament appearance in Gilmore’s 21 seasons at the school. The title also was the ﬁrst in a team sport in the 33-year history of the Big South Conference. The Big South could savor the accomplishment for only about eight hours. The Chanticleers became members of the Sun Belt Conference on Friday. The Chanticleers have a .680 winning percentage since 2000, ranking among the best in the nation. They’re the ﬁrst non-power conference team since Fresno State in 2008 to win the title. In the last 50 years, the only other non-power conference baseball champions are Cal State Fullerton (1979, 1995, 2004) Wichita State (1989), Pepperdine (1992) and Rice (2003). “Me personally, I don’t think we’ve been a mid-major baseball program for a while,” Gilmore said. “I surely don’t tell that to my kids. I tell them I think we’re a top four or ﬁve ACCcaliber club, that we can play with the SEC at times, that we don’t shy away from anyone. “We’re a mid-major because we’re a 10,000-population school and we had (FBC) football, and you kind of get stigmatized by that.” Coastal Carolina capitalized on two errors on the same play to score four unearned runs in the sixth inning of a game delayed a day by bad weather. It was worth the wait. “Whenever I die, I’ll know this group of guys here, they willed themselves to be the national champion,” Gilmore said. “It was just meant to be, AP Photo Coastal Carolina’s G.K. Young (37) is hugged by Anthony Marks after hitting a two-run home run against Arizona in the sixth inning in Game 3 of the NCAA College World Series baseball finals in Omaha, Neb., Thursday. no doubt. If there is such a thing as a team of destiny, this group is it.” Coastal Carolina (55-18) became the ﬁrst team since Minnesota in 1956 to win the title in its ﬁrst CWS appearance. Arizona (49-24) was trying for its second national title since 2012 but came up just short in a season in which it was picked to ﬁnish ninth in the Pac-12. “Amazing season, and they’re a deserving champion,” ﬁrstyear coach Jay Johnson said of the Chanticleers. “We played as good as we possibly could this year, and they’re the best team we’ve played, in my opinion.” Andrew Beckwith (15-1), the national leader in wins, went 5 2/3 innings after pitching two complete games and picked up his third victory of the CWS. He was named the Most Outstanding Player. “He’s been coaching for 21 years, and he deserves every bit of it,” Beckwith said of Gilmore. “We got him to Omaha and we got him a national championship. The senior class, the hard work in the fall, the dedication of the guys who don’t play much. It doesn’t go unnoticed. It was a full team effort the whole College World Series, and we got it done.” Alex Cunningham earned his ﬁrst save, striking out Ryan Haug with a full-count fastball to end the game after Arizona had pulled within one in the bottom of the ninth. When Haug swung and missed, Cunningham turned to his dugout, beat his chest with his ﬁst three times and saluted before ﬂipping his glove away to start the celebration. “The running joke is that in high school I lost the state championship three times in a row. I was not going to lose this one, I promise you that,” Cunningham said. Arizona, which came into the day with just two errors in seven CWS games, had second baseman Cody Ramer commit two on the same play in the sixth inning. He couldn’t get a handle on a grounder, allowing David Parrett to score from third. Then Ramer tried to get Michael Paez running from sec- ond to third, but he overthrew Kyle Lewis. That allowed Paez to come home. G.K. Young then launched a no-doubt homer into the seats above the rightﬁeld bullpen for a 4-0 lead. The Wildcats cut the lead in half with two unearned runs in the bottom half of the sixth against a tiring Beckwith. Arizona’s Bobby Dalbec (11-6) worked 5 2/3 innings, striking out eight to increase his CWS total to 26 in 20 2/3 innings. Arizona’s ﬁrst two batters in the bottom of the ninth reached base against Cunningham, and Gibbons’ sacriﬁce ﬂy made it a one-run game with two outs. Ryan Aguilar then doubled into the left-ﬁeld corner, but Ramer was held at third because Anthony Marks was able to get the ball back to the inﬁeld so quickly. “That’s the play of the season in college baseball,” Johnson said. “We play aggressively, but Cody would have been out by 100 feet — and I know it’s only 90 feet. I can’t believe the play that was made.” Arizona catcher Cesar Salazar left the game at the end of the seventh inning after getting hit on the top of his head by Paez’s bat on a swing-and-miss strike three. Salazar brieﬂy lay face down and was tended to by an athletic trainer. He walked off under his own power and was replaced by Haug. Because of the noon start on a weekday — caused by the rain-and-lightning postponement Wednesday night — people attending the U.S. Olympic swim trials across the street at CenturyLink Center were admitted for free to the outﬁeld seats. The game drew 18,823, raising tournament attendance to 341,667, the third-highest ever. The celebration of Coastal Carolina’s ﬁrst national championship in any team sport gets underway in Conway, South Carolina. The Wildcats return to Tucson to regroup after a season of low expectations ended with them playing for the title. NBA players cash in as big free agency period opens By Brian Mahoney Associated Press Mike Conley and All-Stars Andre Drummond and DeMar DeRozan are staying put. So are Hassan Whiteside and Nicolas Batum. Many more players are on the move — and some are getting paid like they never could have imagined. Chandler Parsons, Evan Turner and Timofey Mozgov were among the players cashing in Friday during the ﬁrst day of free agency — and really, of a new era — in the NBA. With revenues rising and the salary cap soaring right along with it, good players were being paid like All-Stars, while All-Stars were getting contracts that used to go only to superstars. Conley is in a class of his own after agreeing to a $153 million, ﬁve-year deal to remain in Memphis, the biggest deal handed out yet. And the players at the top of the class haven’t even started agreeing to deals yet. Kevin Durant and Al Horford probably can’t wait to see what they get after watching what lesser players on the market have already received. For example: Parsons — four years, $94 million from Memphis. Turner — four years, $70 million from Portland. Mozgov — four years, $64 million from the Lakers. Their timing was even better than their play, as they became free agents at the ideal moment. With the NBA’s national TV contracts worth more than $2.6 billion beginning with next season, the salary cap that’s tied to revenues will soar well beyond its previous record to between $90 million-95 million. Some players didn’t have to wait long to claim their share of it. Drummond’s ﬁve-year maximum contract to stay in Detroit will be worth $130 million, just a share more than the $128 million Bradley Beal got to remain in Washington. DeRozan will do a little better in Toronto and Charlotte kept Batum for about $120 million. But the Hornets lost a couple of key players from their 48-win team, as Jeremy Lin got a three-year, $36 million contract from Brooklyn, and the Pacers lured Al Jefferson to Indiana with a three-year, $30 million contract. None of the contracts can be signed until July 7, after next season’s salary cap is set and the moratorium is lifted. Missing out on the money was O.J. Mayo, the former No. 3 overall pick who ﬁnished last season in Milwaukee and was a free agent. But he was dis- missed and disqualiﬁed from the NBA on Friday for violating the terms of the league’s anti-drug program, the ﬁrst player to receive that punishment in a decade. He will be eligible to apply for reinstatement in two years. His old team was busy, as the Bucks agreed to terms with free agent shooter Mirza Teletovic on a three-year deal worth $30 million, and also agreed to terms on a four-year, $38.4 million offer sheet with restricted free agent Matthew Dellavedova. The Cleveland Cavaliers have the option to match that deal. Durant had his ﬁrst discussions with another team, meeting with the Golden State Warriors. He met with his Oklahoma City Thunder on Thursday, before free agency opened, as the former NBA MVP decides whether to remain with the franchise that selected him with the No. 2 pick in 2007. AP SPORTS BRIEFS Goodell’s salary details. Goodell’s 2015 salary was a little over $31 million for 2015 Mayo dismissed, disqualified NEW YORK (AP) — NFL Commissioner Roger from NBA for drug violation Goodell earned just over $31 million for 2015, the league said on Thursday. The amount represented a 7 percent decrease from his 2014 salary of approximately $34 million. The 2015 ﬁgure is based on the last tax return ﬁled by the NFL, which will no longer need to be made public since the league changed its status from exempt to taxable. Goodell became NFL commissioner in 2006. The NFL’s next-highest paid executive was general counsel Jeff Pash at $6.5 million. His salary dropped from $7.5 million in 2014. Sports Business Daily ﬁrst reported According to rules of the NBA/NBPA AntiDrug Program, information regarding the testing or treatment of a player can’t be disclosed by the league, his team or the union.

As the old saying goes, “We’ve come a long way,” both in art education in the schools, along with the FAC’s facilities, and in the presentation of the regional annual competition and exhibit. This year, with the addition of the new pavilion, at the FAC, 530 First Ave., artwork formerly shown in Gallipolis City Park will be exhibited, safe from the weather, in the pavilion until July 4. The gallery exhibit opened at 6:30 p.m. Friday, along with the opening reception for the show. Jurors’ selections will remain in the galleries until Aug. 6.

Pictured are Patricia Holter, Mary Powell, Dean Barnitz, Dixie Wolfe, Mary Powell, Margaret Parker, Dixie Wolfe and Rae Gwiazdowsky. Ada Nease was absent during the presentation. By Lorna Hart lhart@civitasmedia.com MEIGS COUNTY — Monday is the Fourth of July, a day the United States celebrates its independence and honors the sacriﬁces of men and women who fought for our freedom. One group of women do so on a daily basis. The Daughters of the American Revolution was founded in 1890 with the mission of promoting historic preservation, education and patriotism. Throughout the years, the group has given women a voice in areas that were formerly a male purview. A non-proﬁt, non-political volunteer women’s service organization, it engages in a variety of projects. Many beneﬁt men and women currently serving in the military, all to remember the sacriﬁces made to form this country. DAR is the most inclusive genealogical society in the country. Membership requirements include women 18 years or older (regardless of race, religion or ethnic background) who can prove lineal descent from a patriot of the American Revolution. The Return Jonathan Meigs chapter is part of the national society and celebrated its 108th anniversary by honoring a group of local women. Patricia Holter and Mary Powell were honored for being key people in founding the Chester Shade Historical Association. The group acknowledged Holter has been a driving force in the restoration of Ohio’s oldest-standing courthouse and the Chester Academy. She has served on the Meigs County Library Board for 50 years, seeing the library move from the original Carnegie building to the current location, along with the expansion of the current building, and the addition of Eastern High School and Racine community libraries. Powell and her husband, Pat, worked with Holter to form the Chester Shade Historical Association. Powell has been instrumental writing grants to help with the cost of restoration. She was also acknowledged as a driving force and continues Prior to the meeting June 18 DAR meeting, the grave of Phyllis Smart Hackett, a devoted 36 year member, was marked with the DAR emblem and service. to support the association. She actively promotes Meigs County, bringing the Ohio State Harmonica Contest to Chester and the educational and entertaining Chautauqua and Yesteryear programs to local schools. Dean Barnitz was honored for her years of dedication to repairing, mending and reinforcing many ﬂags and has been coined as a “modern-day Betsy Ross” in articles. Her needlework grace many sites, including the Ohio entrance to the Bridge of Honor. When Barnitz is not working on ﬂags, she enjoys making “Little Dresses for Africa.” She says her goal is to stay busy and help others in the process. Dixie Wolfe works in easing the stress and worries of families who have had a cancer experience by preparing and providing meals for these families. “Comfort food and a warm smile, one less worry to deal with,” Wolfe said of the support she gives to families dealing with cancer and chemotherapy. Ada Nease is known as the “Fabric Shop Lady,” but little known for her career in the U.S. Navy WAVES. Nease served in the Navy for 27 months during World War II, stationed in Washington, D.C., as a decoder of war messages. The DAR stressed the importance of accuracy in her job and said they were grateful for her service. Dixie Circle is known for her love of animals and has worked for and supported the Humane Society for many years. The DAR acknowledged her dedication and said a new facility (The Meigs County Canine Rescue and Adoption Center) would not have occurred with Submitted photos Recent high school graduates Abigail Causey, from Eastern, and Kelsie Powell, from Meigs, were selected by their respective schools to receive the DAR Good Citizen Award. The award goes to students who demonstrate dependability, service, leadership and patriotism. Both were presented with a certificate, Good Citizen pin and gift. out people like Circle. Margaret Parker’s name has been synonymous with the Meigs County Pioneer and Historical Society and Museum on Butternut Street in Pomeroy since the mid 1970s. The award went to Parker for her many hours supporting the organization. The DAR said without Parker, the museum and buildings may not have existed. Rae Gwiazdowsky is a registered nurse whose career has included varied ages, from children to the elderly in the nursing home. She worked in many departments at Holzer Medical Center and retired from Urgent Care. The DAR honored her for her military service; she served as a nurse in during Operation: Desert Storm.
