QUICKSBURG, Va. — About
150 people from 20 states

family during their 88th annual

While living in the Shenandoah Valley, the Roush family

family if he could hunt on their

URG’s nursing program earns reaccreditation
Staff Report

RIO GRADE — The Holzer School of Nursing in the
College of Professional and
Technical Studies at the University of Rio Grande and Rio
Grande Community College
has received its reaccreditation,
school ofﬁcials said Friday.
The Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing
has approved Rio’s associate
degree nursing program for full
accreditation through 2024.
Dr. Donna Mitchell, dean of
the College of Professional and

Technical Studies, said this
means the school’s next ACEN
visit will be in eight years.
“Receiving our reaccreditation for the maximum eight
years is a wonderful honor,’ she
said. “It shows the hard work
and dedication of our faculty to
provide our students the best
education possible to prepare
them for the workforce. To go
through the process and have

an accomplishment. It’s something of which the nursing program and the nursing faculty,

very proud.”
Mitchell said accreditation is
a process where outside organizations determine if a program
is meeting the professional
standards set by the industry.
“The ACEN is an international accrediting agency. This
means they do not just work
with schools in this country,
they evaluate schools abroad as
well. This makes our accreditation so much more special
because it shows our program
is reputable and should be
recognized anywhere in the
world,” Mitchell said.

Dr. Amy Swango-Wilson,
director of the Holzer School of
Nursing, said the reaccreditation shows the work the faculty
put into making the program
a valuable experience for students.
“This was a tremendous
effort from our entire faculty.
They worked on the report as a
team and are actively involved
in the value of the program,”
Swango-Wilson said. “We have

RIO GRANDE — A
new farmers and artisans
market will be popping
up Sept. 7 along North
College as a new attraction for the Village of
Rio Grande and Gallia
County.
According to Rio
Grande Mayor Matt
Easter, the market will
be near the Ohio Valley
Bank extension ofﬁce,
pinched between the
North College Avenue
intersection with West
College and North
Atwood streets.
Jennifer Littlejohn,
market manager, says
vendors will serve the
community between 4-7
p.m. Roughly eight vendors, both local produce
distributors and artisans,
have committed to the
endeavor.
Littlejohn, a crafter of
soaps, salves and lotions,
has been practicing her
art for the last four years.
She grows her own herbs
and infuses her concoctions with herbs and
locally produced goat
milk. She was introduced
to the activity through a
friend after the loss of a
loved one and has honed
her practice since.
Easter and Littlejohn
had previously discussed
the merits of bringing
a market to the village.
Easter entrusted the
direction of the market to
Littlejohn.
The market, dubbed
“Raised around Rio,”
focuses on artisans
and farms near the Rio
Grande area.
“This fall is going to be
a test run to work out all
the kinks,” Easter said. “I
think it will be a fun, cool
thing for us and hopefully
get some people to come
check out the village on
a Wednesday night. We
tried to schedule in a way
to not step on other farmers markets.”
Easter said the market
would be nicknamed
“Shakedown Street,” similarly to the impromptu
markets that appear near
Grateful Dead concerts.
According to Littlejohn, she anticipates
having local entertainment this spring once the
market begins again. The
market will reportedly
open again in May 2017
and run through October.
This year, the market
will close Oct. 12, the
Wednesday before Rockets over Rio.
“We may pull in musical acts from Jackson, but
we want to focus on Gallia ﬁrst,” Littlejohn said.

Judge: Custody case of kids
from slain family stays private
WAVERLY, Ohio (AP) — A judge will keep private
the case over custody of two children who were found
next to their slain parents after eight people from one
Ohio family were fatally shot.
A Pike County judge ruled Thursday that public
access to court hearings and records related to the
5-month-old girl and 11-month-old boy could “harm
the children or their custodians.”
The Pike County Children’s Service Board sought to
keep the case closed. The Cincinnati Enquirer sought
to open it, citing state law that presumes juvenile
court proceedings are public.
Three family members are seeking custody of the
children, who weren’t injured when seven adults and a
teenage boy from the Rhoden family were found shot
at four homes near Piketon on April 22.

Nominees for
WV gov speak
at conference
By John Raby
Associated Press

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. — West
Virginia Republican gubernatorial nominee Bill
Cole and Democratic opponent Jim Justice touted
their lengthy resumes and passions for creating
jobs during a gathering of state business leaders
Thursday.
The two spoke separately at the West Virginia
Chamber of Commerce’s annual business meeting
at The Greenbrier resort, which Justice owns.
Cole is the state Senate president from Mercer
County and owns car dealerships in West Virginia
and Kentucky.
“Thirty years in business and four years in state
government have convinced me that with the right
plan and the right people working together, West
Virginia can write the next chapter of the great
American comeback story,” Cole said.
He then took a shot at Justice, who earlier told
the audience that he owns 102 businesses, including coal and agricultural interests.
“West Virginia has full-time problems that
require full-time solutions,” Cole said. “We need a
full-time governor who is exclusively committed
to moving our state forward.”
Justice said voters who question how he can
devote his time to being governor with his other
commitments should know that he’s very organized.
He drew similarities between his own business
interests and those of his audience. The three-day
meeting had more than three dozen sponsors and
business booths lining the outer walls of the conference room.
“I’m you. I’m just plain you,” Justice said.
Justice, who bought The Greenbrier out of
bankruptcy in 2009 and brought a PGA Tour
event to the resort starting in 2010, told the audience to “judge my deeds. Judge what I do. Tell me
one thing I’ve ever promised you I would do that I
didn’t do.”
Justice said Cole doesn’t have the experience,
the expertise or the contacts to be a successful
governor and market West Virginia to the world.
Cole focused his speech on calling for investments in education, infrastructure and high-speed
internet and his efforts in the Legislature at
improving the state’s business climate.
The West Virginia Chamber plans to endorse a
candidate for governor in the fall. The election is
Nov. 8.
Democratic Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin is leaving
because of term limits.
Justice and Cole will have head-to-head debates
on Oct. 4 and 11 at the Clay Center in Charleston.
Justice also said that despite thousands of layoffs in the Appalachian coal industry in recent
years, he predicted that West Virginia mines will
see a turnaround. He said metallurgical coal prices have stabilized in the past two months.
“We have not seen the end of our miners and we
have not seen the end of coal,” Justice said.
Justice also announced at the meeting that his
daughter, Jill Justice, has been named president of
The Greenbrier.

Reunion
From page 1A

“George and Jonas were
at the battle of Yorktown.
… They were there at the
surrender of [British General Charles] Cornwallis,”
said Jerry Roush, who is
related.
John Roush died in
1786. After his wife,
Susannah, died around
1795, the family moved
to the Ohio River Valley,
where they purchased
6,000 acres of land.
As the family continued

to grow, it spread across
The Roush and Allied Families Association of America gathers at American Celebration at Shenandoah
the United States, Jerry

Roush said.
About 130 years later,
the Rev. Lester Le Roy
Roush, who was writing
a book about the Roush
family and wanted to celebrate and remember John
Roush, began reaching
out to his descendants.
“He needed to do a
tremendous amount of
research and letter writing back then,” Jerry
Roush said. “Today, we
have computers and the
internet to ﬁnd stuff,
and he had to do that by
hand.”
A personal touch
The ﬁrst eight reunions
were conducted in Ohio
and West Virginia, with
the ﬁrst one taking place
Sept. 4, 1926, in New
Haven, W.Va. As the
reunions continued, they
started being conducted
in other parts of the country.
The ﬁrst Mount Jackson reunion was Aug. 22,
1936. A reunion is conducted at Mount Jackson
every 10 years.
During the ninth

last month, Roush
descendants participated
in an auction, visited a
monument dedicated to
John Roush St. Mary’s
Pine Lutheran Church
Cemetery, and shared
stories about their
ancestors.
“You’re surprised
sometimes how small
the world is when you
start talking to people,”
said Ashley, who has
attended reunions for

the past 20 years.
Ashley, the descendant
of George and Henry
Roush, added that
hearing the stories gives
him a new viewpoint
about historical
events, including the
Revolutionary War.
“You get a different
perspective of history
than you probably get
in school,” he said. “You
didn’t learn the personal
part of the situation.”

from Mason County Probation, assisted by deputies from
the Mason County Sheriff’s
Department, went on a home
visit check to Berkley’s home
on Beale Meadow Road in Gallipolis Ferry.
During the search of Berkley’s residence, the probation

heater. Located in the green
bag was another bag containing ammonium nitrate, a bag

was found at a residence in
the 1400 block of Lewis Street

appeared to be heroin inside,
wrapped up in plastic.

Grant is music to Ashton Elementary’s ears
By Maria Eshenaur
Special to OVP

ASHTON, W.Va. —
Ashton Elementary’s
school year includes
beginning band
instruments purchased
by a grant awarded to
the school from the
Robert and Louise
Claﬂin Foundation.
The instruments are
for students who wish to
join the band program
but lack funding to rent
or purchase instruments.
The idea behind the
program is, students
can use the instruments
until they can either
rent or purchase one of
their own or until they
graduate from Hannan,
or leave the band
program.
Beginner band
instruments enable
students to experience
the beneﬁts which
come from playing an
instrument. Beneﬁts like
being able to represent
their school and Mason
County by traveling and
performing at places
they might not ever
have have a chance to
experience otherwise.
These experiences are
like becoming part of
a group of people that
bond as friends and
support people for life;
like training their brains
to be more of a critical
thinker which actually

OUR VIEW

THEIR VIEW

Our flag is more
than a symbol

Newsroom workings and symphony orchestras

San Francisco 49er quarterback Colin
Kaepernick, is getting some attention with
his actions, ﬁnally, with his protest of his
understanding of oppression of African
Americans in the United States.
Kaepernick chooses not to stand during
the national anthem played before National
Football League games. The quarterback
has not stood during any of the team’s four
preseason games, but it was only after the
third game that anyone bothered to notice.
His actions brought both support and
criticism. More than one veteran of the
military has spoken up to point out he or
she served to protect Kaepernick’s right to
protest. Most of those veterans also go on to
say they disagree with his stance.
Here’s why we think Kaepernick is wrong
and is being disrespectful by not standing
during the anthem and our ﬂag and the song
to which it refers.
It was under this

American was
elected president
of our country.
And, it will be under this ﬂag that changes,
improvements and advances for all will
continue to be made.
But for all of the news about Kaepernick’s
actions, there are many more that reﬂect the
opposite.
Take, for example, a high school freshmen
football team in Lapeer, Mich. Before their
game Aug. 31 at rival Carman-Ainsworth
High School near Flint, Mich., the team was
informed by the host’s announcer that the
national anthem would not be played before
the game.
In Michigan, it is common practice at
schools with multiple levels of a sport being
played the same night to play the anthem
once. The website, www.MLive.com, which
represents several media outlets throughout
Michigan and reported the original story,
noted that the anthem was played before the
junior varsity game involving the same two
schools later that night.
The decision to not play the anthem before
the freshman game was not done as any
sort of protest, according to the website.
But rather than accept that decision, the
visiting freshmen Lapeer team stood along
the sideline, saluted the ﬂag and sang the
national anthem before they took the ﬁeld for
competition. Their competitors across the
ﬁeld reportedly joined in as well.
Lapeer’s coaches told the website that the
players took it upon themselves to sing the
national anthem.
To protest the ﬂag, it seems to us, is
like saying those changes that have come
about were meaningless; that the sacriﬁces
made to bring about those changes are
inconsequential. Even worse, it seems to
say that the efforts of those individuals who
sacriﬁced their lives for those changes are not
worthwhile. That’s where Kaepernick does a
disservice to his ﬂag.
If Kaepernick is sincere, he needs to do
more than sit. His actions have put him under
a huge microscope. His actions are receiving
the attention he wanted. What will be his
response to all of the attention? Will he follow
through with something more meaningful
than sitting?
According to Yahoo! Sports on Friday,
Kaepernick plans to pledge $1 million
to racial equality issues. If true, this is
signiﬁcant because he is guaranteed to earn
$11.9 million in base salary this season —
whether or not he is on the 49ers’ roster.
Kaepernick has already earned $400,000 in
the form of an offseason workout bonus.
He said he hasn’t yet decided which
organization or organizations he plans to
donate to but is in discussions with several.
Some will say that the ﬂag (and anthem)
is only a symbol. Symbols, though, are
important. Merriam-Webster provides one
deﬁnition of symbol: “An action, object,
event, etc., that expresses or represents a

The ﬂag represents all that we were, all that
we are and all that we will be. The United
States has evolved a great deal since its
inception. We’re not ﬁnished evolving.

A wise editor from
my past once told me,
“Think of the newsroom
as a symphony orchestra
and you are the conductor. It’s your job to
ensure that all parts are
working in harmony and
doing what they’re supposed to be doing. And
when everything works
as it should, it is, indeed,
harmony.”
That analogy works,
assuming that everything
ﬂows as it should. Unfortunately, he failed to
give me a heads up that,
sometimes, you might
also have to be First
Chair while conducting
that symphony.
Such is the life of a
journalist of a small
community newspaper
like ours. Not only do
we ensure coverage of
local news, we also write
it, take photographs,
proofread, collect small
community news items
such as weddings, births,
reunions, birthday
announcements (what
we call “card showers”),
calendar items, obituaries, update news on our
website, post content to
social media and much
more too numerous to

You’d see them in North Hampton,
Martha’s Vineyard. And people still
buy them for that reason,” said Dan
Strohl, a Web editor with Hemmings
Motor News.
For most Jeep collectors, though, it’s
not about status, or luxury, or owning
something of great value.
“Jeeps obviously aren’t blue chip collectibles in the strictest sense of the
word, but they’re getting more popular,” Strohl said. “They’re kind of their
own unique market in a lot of ways.”
Christy, who works as a photographer at Kent State University, said
Jeeps are just fun. He did nearly the
entire restoration of his CJ himself and
has a number of other projects in the
works right now.
It’s a small community — you might
only see one or two other classic Jeeps
at a large cruise-in — but it’s a dedicated and tight-knit group.
“People are willing to help with
parts or knowledge,” he said. “It’s really a nice group of people I’ve met.”

sensation. First launched in 1962, the
Wagoneer became the world’s ﬁrst real
luxury sport utility vehicle. With some
minor changes, it was sold all the way
up to 1991.
Though some rough ones can be
found on discount used car lots, original low-mileage examples and professionally restored ones are bringing
serious money.
“It’s one of those trends that completely came out of left ﬁeld and no
one expected it,” Boyd said. “It’s
sparked a whole counter-culture, speciﬁcally with the restoration shops
popping up to restore just those
vehicles.”
The Texas-based company Wagonmaster has made a big business out
of buying, restoring, and selling Jeep
Wagoneers. The company has more
than dozen listed for sale, with asking
prices as high as $69,000.
“They were popular when they came
out and they’ve remained popular.
They’re still very much a status item.

there was only a canvas top.
Vaccaro, who is based in Florida,
estimates there are 3,000 to 4,000
Jeepsters still out there. Many of those
have been through his shop. In spite of
not advertising, he has a 2½-year waiting list for restorations.
Though unrestored Jeepsters can
still be found for relatively low prices,
well-restored examples are quite valuable.
“My cars are now bringing as much
as $55,000 at auction. They’ve really
gone up in value, a lot more than most
cars from that vintage,” he said.
Though some people buy them as
show cars, most are bought to drive.
Vaccaro is a great ambassador for that.
In 2014, he and eight others drove
from Florida to California and back,
and he’s planning a 10,000-mile round
trip from Key West to Alaska.

TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — When
Bob Christy takes the wheel of his old
emerald green Jeep, it hints of simpler
times.
“I just like driving down country
roads in it. I like feeling the wind. It’s
like riding a motorcycle,” he said. “You
smell the smells out there when you go
past a farm or a cornﬁeld. It’s more of
a pure driving experience. You don’t
have your windows rolled up and the
AC on. If it rains, you’re getting wet.
It’s just kind of pure.”
Like many vehicle collectors, Christy’s passion for old Jeeps goes back to
childhood. All it took was one surprise
trip with his dad to a local Jeep rodeo.
The vehicles. The mud. The obstacle
courses. He was hooked.
Christy bought his ﬁrst Jeep as a
teenager and has had a string of them
since, including a beautifully restored
1953 CJ-3B that gets regular usage on
the back roads near his northeast Ohio
home.
Though Jeeps aren’t for everyone —
many early models struggle to break
50 mph — a good number of models
have become collectible over the years.
“There’s a really strong afﬁnity for
Jeeps within the collector car market.
It has such a storied past,” said Megan
Boyd, car specialist with Auctions
America in Auburn, Indiana.
The auction house has sold a number of Jeeps in recent years, and while
most typically bring between $8,000
and $20,000, there are exceptions.
In 2013, for example, Auctions
America sold a low-mileage, originalowner 1952 CJ-3A that had a number
of farm attachments for $30,250.
Collector car experts say one of the
more popular models of late has been
the Willys Jeepster, a quirky cross
between the traditional military-style
Jeep and a sporty roadster aimed at
returning servicemen who were fond
of the Spartan Jeep. The vehicle was
produced from 1948 to 1950 in Toledo.
“It was a family-oriented Jeep but it
was just a little too expensive for the
boys coming back from the war,” said
Jim Vaccaro, who has made a second
career out of restoring the old cars.
The cars were priced at $1,750, which
was about the same as a well-equipped
Ford or Chevrolet convertible that had
far more options. The Jeepster didn’t

Miller holds
off Eastern,
20-14
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@civitasmedia.com

TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio — Just too many
missed opportunities.
The Eastern football team came up empty twice
in the redzone on Friday night, and the Eagles fell
to Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division guest
Miller by a 20-14 count, at East Shade River Stadium.
Misfortune hit the Eagles (0-2, 0-1 TVC Hocking) early, as on the second play from scrimmage,
Miller (1-1, 1-1) junior Alec Eveland intercepted a
Jett Facemyer pass and returned it 15 yards to the
EHS 35.
From there, Miller needed eight plays and 4:12
to cover the distance and ﬁnd paydirt. It was MHS
junior fullback Seattle Compston that — with a
second-effort — pushed past the Eagle defenders
from one-yard out. Miller’s point after kick failed,
but the Purple and White led 6-0 with 7:03 left in
the ﬁrst quarter.
The ensuing EHS possession began on the Eagle

Rebels rally
past Fed
Hock, 42-24
By Bryan Walters

STEWART, Ohio — The Rebels saved their best
for last.
The South Gallia football team scored 20 unanswered points in the fourth quarter while also picking up its ﬁrst win of the 2016 campaign Friday
night following a 42-24 decision over host Federal
Hocking in a Week 2 Tri-Valley Conference Hocking Division matchup in Athens County.
The visiting Rebels (1-1, 1-0 TVC Hocking)
never led in the ﬁrst half and were facing a 24-22
deﬁcit headed into the ﬁnal stanza, but the Red
and Gold came up with a pair of David Kuhn
touchdown runs and a pivotal defensive score
down the stretch — which allowed SGHS to sneak
away with the league-opening triumph.
The Lancers (0-2, 0-1) started the scoring with
9:02 left in the opening period as Walker Church
gave the hosts a 6-0 edge on a 20-yard run with
9:02 remaining.
A.J. Woodall retaliated with a two-yard scoring
scamper at the 4:07 mark, which allowed the Rebels to knot things up at six after one period of play.
The score remained that way until 2:12
remained in the half as Fed Hock secured a 12-6
lead following a Church TD run from one yard out.
The Maroon and Gold managed to take that sixpoint cushion into halftime with them.
The Lancers struck ﬁrst in the second half as
Colten Roark hauled in a 65-yard pass from Dillon
Wilfong at the 9:52 mark, which made it an 18-6
contest.
Johnny Sheets, however, answered with a
23-yard scoring run and a successful two-point run
at the 5:17 mark, making it an 18-14 deﬁcit.
Sheets followed with a 63-yard run at the 1:53
mark of the third to give SGHS its ﬁrst lead of the

Meigs’ Zach Bartrum (1) runs after the catch as Amanda-Clearcreek’s Will Riffle (43) and Dalton Covell (20) converge during Friday
night’s non-league football game at Meigs High School’s Farmers Bank Stadium.

Aces upset Meigs, 20-14
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@civitasmedia.com

ROCKSPRINGS, Ohio — In the
immediate aftermath on Friday
night, Mike Bartrum did his best
to talk about being positive.
Even though his disappointment
scale stood at a “negative-10”.
That’s because, in stunning fashion, the Meigs High School football
team — and much of Southeastern
Ohio in fact — found itself surprised by the Amanda-Clearcreek
Aces.
Never trailing throughout, and
simply stiﬂing the high-powered
Marauder offensive attack, Amanda-Clearcreek captured a 20-14
non-league upset — inside a shellshocked Farmers Bank Stadium on
the campus of Meigs High School.
Both teams are now 1-1,
although the Aces are feeling much
better about themselves following
Friday night’s impressive victory.
Amanda-Clearcreek, after a 2-8
campaign last season, came back
after a disappointing 20-19 defeat
at Lakewood in its opener.
Last season, in the team’s only
other meeting in history, the
Marauders manufactured a 42-27
weather-delayed win in Amanda.
In the return tilt, most observers predicted perhaps a Meigs
landslide win, given the recent
struggles of the traditional powerhouse Aces.
Well, Amanda-Clearcreek came
out from being shufﬂed somewhere
in the middle of the proverbial
deck.
The Aces raced out to a 14-0 lead
halfway through the second quarter, withstood a furious rally by the
Marauders that tied the game at
half, then crafted an old-fashioned
ground-and-pound fourth-quarter
scoring drive to put the game away.
“We beat a very good Meigs
football team and one of the best
players we’ll see all year in (Meigs
quarterback) Cody Bartrum. “We
just kept ﬁghting and I’m so proud
of them right now,” said an overjoyed Amanda-Clearcreek coach
Scott Hinton. “As down as I was
last week, it’s the complete opposite right now.”
Speaking of the complete opposite, the Marauders — who have
high expectations this season —
were on the other end of the spectrum.
Bartrum, in his ﬁfth season as
Meigs head coach, bore the bulk of
the responsibility.
“They really came down here
and kicked our tails. And it all
starts with me as the head coach,”
he said. “I have to take full responsibility and our coaches and coordinators have to take full responsibility. We have to get better. Plain and
simple. I don’t know if we can get
any worse because we didn’t play
very well. There were plays that
the kids needed to make and didn’t
make, and we as coaches have to
make better calls.”
As for the credit, tip your hat to
Hinton and his staff.
The Aces’ defense did the

lockdown job on Meigs’ spreadthe-ﬁeld aerial attack and senior
quarterback Cody Bartrum — the
reigning Southeast District Division IV Offensive Player of the
Year.
Bartrum completed 16-of-30
passes for 168 yards and two second-quarter touchdowns — but the
Aces didn’t allow the Marauders to
make the big play, keeping everything either short or underneath
and in front of them.
The Aces also bottled up
Meigs between the tackles, as the
Marauders rushed for just 64 yards
on 29 attempts, including Bartrum
leading the way with 38 yards on
14 carries.
The Maroon and Gold gained
only 76 of its 232 total yards in the
second half, including 24 on the
ground.
“The run game. You have to
be able to run the ball. Amanda
kept everything in front of them.
Our quarterback running, jet
plays, sweeps, deep balls, I can’t
say enough what they did to us,”
admitted Coach Bartrum. “They
handled us up front.”
“Our gameplan was to do everything we could to not let (Cody)
Bartrum beat us,” said Hinton.
“The key concepts were keep
everything in front of us and not
give up big plays. We didn’t give up
many big pass plays tonight. The
linebackers were to not ﬂy out in
coverage, but just stay in and be
spies on the quarterback. We had
two spies on Bartrum all night.
That’s just what we had to do.”
After exchanging three-andout possessions to open the
game, Amanda-Clearcreek clearly
turned the tide in its favor halfway through the opening quarter
— when Michael Sites stepped
in front of a Bartrum pass and
returned the ball 30 yards to the
Marauder 35.
Two plays later, Joey Drake’s
run right up the middle made
the Marauders miss tackles, as
he scampered 35 yards to put the
Aces on top near the six-minute
mark.
Zach Meadows made the extra
point, as the Aces added their
second touchdown almost a full 12
minutes later —after the Marauders turned the ball over on downs
near midﬁeld and following another exchange of three-and-outs.
The Aces put together a massive
12-play, 49-yard scoring march,
relying on the 1-2 ground-game
punch of quarterback Brayden Neff
and running back R.J. Martin.
Martin capped off the drive with
a 1-yard plunge, and Meadows
made the extra point to make it
14-0 — with six-and-a-half minutes
left in the ﬁrst half.
On the drive, the Aces appeared
to attempt a 24-yard ﬁeld goal facing 4th-and-5 from the Meigs 7, but
the Marauders jumped offsides to
set up a 4th-and-inches situation.
Hinton then changed plans and
went for it, as Drake dove for the
ﬁrst-down foot that was conﬁrmed
via way of a measurement.

The Marauders then rallied
for their two touchdowns and 14
points within two minutes and 19
seconds of each other, sandwiched
around a Meigs fumble recovery off
the Aces’ only turnover.
Meigs marched six plays and 59
yards and seven plays and 42 yards,
as Bartrum’s TD tosses went to
Tyler Garretson for 20 yards and to
Zach Helton for four.
With Layne Acree adding both
extra-point kicks, the Marauders
managed the 14-14 tie with 2:14
left in the second stanza.
But the Marauders couldn’t keep
that momentum going.
“We talk all the time about
momentum, especially the ﬁrst
three minutes of the third quarter.
We stopped them, but then we go
three-and-out twice and punted
three times,” said Coach Bartrum.
“You can’t spin your wheels. There
were huge plays where there was
a block here, or a catch (dropped
pass) there, or a read with the
quarterback or whatever it was.”
The second half — particularly
the third quarter — featured more
exchanges of punts, including
another three-and-out by each.
But A-C punter Keaton Baldwin
booted the Marauders deep all
night, as all seven of his punts
ranged between 38 and 49 yards —
including six times pining Meigs
down inside its own 20-yard-line.
“We couldn’t hardly return them
(punts) because of the height he
(Baldwin) had on the ball and over
the head of our return guys,” said
Coach Bartrum. “Then they go out
of bounds inside the 10 and one
of them rolled out at the 1. Their
kicking game was better than
ours.”
“We controlled the ﬁeld position
the whole game. You can’t give
Meigs a short ﬁeld, because when
you do, they feel like they can take
some shots downﬁeld at you,” said
Hinton. “By pinning them down
deep, that was a huge part of the
game.”
Finally, the Aces regained the
lead after another impressive scoring drive — this one covering 45
yards in eight plays and all on the
ground with Martin and Neff.
Martin, off tackle from 15 yards
out and almost untouched on the
play, put A-C in front 20-14 with
only 4:38 to go.
In all, Martin mustered a massive 126 yards on 24 carries, as
Neff added 21 rushing yards and
another 47 through the air.
“The offense did enough tonight
to win the game too,” said Hinton.
“R. J. (Martin) has been hot carrying the ball, and we have to keep
feeding him when he is hot. The
runs in those two scoring drives by
him and Brayden (Neff) were just
huge. The offensive line worked
their tails off the entire game. The
key was wearing them (Marauders) down, going down and scoring
and going ahead, which allowed
us to play the type of defense we
wanted.”

Aces
From page 1B

That Aces’ defense then
made one more fantastic stand
against the Marauders — only
a minute and 19 seconds later.
Meigs drove from midﬁeld to
just inside the Aces’ 41, setting
up a 4th-and-a-foot to possibly

pick up the ﬁrst down.
But Bartrum, who had operated out of the shotgun all
night, decided to move up
under center — drawing an
extra defender into the gap.
Bartrum stepped back with
the ball and brieﬂy lost his
balance in pushing to the
right, as his second effort in
reaching for the ﬁrst down
was stopped by the oncoming

A-C surge.
Zach Bartrum led the
Marauders — and all receivers — with 72 yards on
seven receptions, as Helton
had three for 31 and Bailey
Caruthers four for 42.
Meigs actually outgained
the Aces 232-226, held a
15-13 advantage in ﬁrst
downs, and ran 59 plays from
scrimmage to the Aces’ 54.

Sunday Times-Sentinel

However, that was of littleto-no importance.
Instead, Bartrum was
already focusing on remaining
upbeat — with the Marauders welcoming winless Logan
next week.
“We can’t dwell on this. We
have to get this behind us.
You have to move on to the
next game. If not, then it’s
going to happen again and

again,” said Coach Bartrum.
“We’re always staying positive, getting though things,
learning from losses and
moving on. We just have to
stay positive and keep working hard. I don’t care if we go
10-0 or 0-10. We’re going to
keep working hard and stay
positive.”

A late-hit penalty moved

seven seconds were all

In those seven seconds,
EHS managed two incomplete passes — one via
a drop — sandwiched
around a false start. However, Eastern still went
into the half ahead 8-6.
Miller didn’t score
on its ﬁrst drive of the
second half, but the Falcons did manage to pin
Eastern deep in its own
territory, punting to the

The Eagles went threeand-out, punting back
to Miller, which set up

Miller, which set up its
offense at the MHS 28.
On Miller’s ﬁrst play of
the ensuing drive, a ﬁveyard run turned into 20
as an EHS personal foul
put the Falcons near midﬁeld. On ﬁrst-and-10 from
the MHS 48, Waldrop
broke loose of the defense
for a long run, but he was
stopped one yard shy of

Eastern, which began
its next drive on its own

Eagles, but a failed extra

the game.
Eastern never got the

ball back, as the Falcons
ate up the rest of the
clock covering 48 yards
on 13 consecutive running plays.
Both teams had 15 ﬁrst

Southern slips past Lady Tomcats in five
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@civitasmedia.com

RACINE, Ohio —
The Lady Tornadoes
played the role of spoiler
Thursday night, as they
kept visiting Trimble
from pulling off the nearimpossible comeback.
The Southern
volleyball team was a
single point away from
a three-game sweep of
Tri-Valley Conference
Hocking Division guest
Trimble, but the Lady
Tomcats battled back
and eventually forced a
ﬁfth game, in which they
led 6-3. However, SHS
stopped the comeback
effort with a 12-4 run to
take the ﬁfth game 15-10
and the match by a 3-2
tally.
The Lady Tornadoes
(3-0, 1-0 TVC Hocking)
never trailed in the
opening game, leading
by as much as eight en
route to a 25-21 win.
Trimble lead 4-2 in
the second game, but
Southern rallied into
the lead with a 7-0 run.
The Lady Tornadoes
never relinquished the
lead, winning the second
game 25-18 and moving
ahead 2-0 in the match.
The Purple and Gold
established an early
lead in the third game,
but the Lady Tomcats
battled to tie the
game at 12. However,
Southern answered with
a 6-0 spurt to expand its
lead to 18-12.
THS again fought
back and tied the third
game at 24. Southern
was within one point of
the victory three times
in the third game, but
couldn’t put Trimble
away, with the Lady
Tomcats earning the
29-27 victory.
The fourth game
featured six lead
changes, the last of
which came when
Trimble took a 17-16

advantage. Southern
fought back to tie
the game at 21, but
surrendered the next
four points, as the Lady
Tomcats won 25-21,
tying the match at 2-2.
The Lady Tornadoes
initially trailed in the
ﬁfth game, but they
claimed a lead at 7-6.
THS tied the game
at eight, but never
regained the advantage,
falling by a 15-10 count,
that gave SHS the 3-2
match victory.

“I think we came
back in the ﬁfth more
determined,” ﬁrst-year
SHS head coach Kim
Hupp said. “I told the
girls, ‘this is it, a game
to 15 for the win,’ and
they came out focused
and ready to play. They
weren’t going to let
down.”
SHS senior Kamryn
Smith led the Lady
Tornado service attack
with 16 points and one
ace, while junior libero
Jane Roush added 12

points and one ace.
Sierra Cleland, Amanda
Cole and Marlee
Maynard each had eight
service points, while
Sara Schenkelberg
rounded out the
category for SHS with
seven points.
At the net, Southern
was led by Faith Teaford
with 12 kills and two
blocks, and Cole with
12 kills and one block.
Cleland had 10 kills and
two blocks in the win,
Smith added six kills

and one block, while
Maynard had one kill for
the victors.
“They never gave up
and they never quit,”
Hupp said of her squad.
“They hustled down to
the very last point, so
I’m very proud of them
for that.”
Taya Lackey led
Trimble with 16 service
points, followed by
Emily Ward with 14.
Kaitlyn Spears and
Alexa Shust each had
seven points, Sydney

Hardy added three,
while Lyndee Burdette
chipped in with two.
Trimble was one of
two teams that SHS
shared the 2015 league
title with, and the Lady
Tornadoes will look to
sweep the Lady Tomcats
on September 26, in
Glouster.
Southern will return
to the court on Tuesday
at Miller.

Point Pleasant slips past Vikings, 19-17
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@civitasmedia.com

RIPLEY, W.Va. —
Regardless of the margin
of victory, the streak
continues.
The Point Pleasant
football team won the
Battle of the Oaken
Bucket by a 19-17 count
over host Ripley — on
Friday night in Jackson
County — giving the
Big Blacks’ their 35th
consecutive regular
season triumph. This
is the smallest margin
of victory during Point
Pleasant’s state-best
streak, and in fact it’s
the only game that has
been decided by less
than a touchdown.
The Big Blacks (2-0)
— who’ve won 19
straight regular season
games on the road —put
the game’s ﬁrst points
on the board at the 7:06
mark of the opening
period, when sophomore
signal caller Cason
Payne broke a 73-yard
run for a touchdown.
The extra point kick
failed, however, leaving
the Big Blacks with a 6-0
lead.
Less than three
minutes later, Point
Pleasant was on the
board again. This time it
was senior Grant Safford
that found paydirt from
38-yards out. Jason
Schultz kicked home
the extra point, giving
PPHS a 13-0 advantage
with 4:08 left in the ﬁrst
quarter.

Ripley (1-1) was
blanked in the ﬁrst
period, but got on the
board with 4:27 left in
the second, when senior
Chase Morgan scored on
a ﬁve-yard run. Morgan’s
run was followed by a
successful kick by Ryan
Shatto, cutting Point
Pleasant’s lead to 13-7.
With just ﬁve seconds
left in the ﬁrst half,
Shatto cut Ripley’s
deﬁcit to three with a
34-yard ﬁeld goal.
After the half, Point
Pleasant got back on
the board with a 33-yard
ﬁeld goal by Schultz,
making the Big Blacks’
lead 16-10 with 8:31 left
in the third quarter.
The Vikings tied the
game at 16 with 4:12 left
in the third quarter, as
senior Chance Morgan
scored on a two-yard
run. Shatto’s kick spilt
the uprights, giving the
hosts a 17-16 advantage
and their ﬁrst lead of the
game.
Ripley held the
one-point advantage
through the end of the
third quarter, but with
7:34 remaining in the
regulation, Schultz made
a 20-yard ﬁeld goal to
give PPHS the 19-17
lead.
RHS didn’t have an
answer and the Big
Blacks held on for the
two-point victory.
This is the fourth
consecutive win over
Ripley for PPHS. The
Big Blacks now hold a
52-23-1 record in the

all-time series between
these teams, which
began in 1934.
Just six yards
separated the two
offenses, as the Big
Blacks held a 277-to271 advantage in total
offense. All but 12 of
Point Pleasant’s yards
came on the ground,
giving the guests a 265to-224 edge in rushing
yards. The Big Blacks’
10 ﬁrst downs were ﬁve
fewer than the hosts, but
PPHS committed one
turnover, while forcing
two. Both teams punted
four times.
Ripley was ﬂagged
11 times for 83 yards,
while Point Pleasant
committed just four
penalties for a total of
37 yards.
Safford carried the
load for Point Pleasant
offensively, rushing
for 139 yards and one
score on 19 attempts.
Payne — who was 2-of6 passing for 12 yards
with no touchdowns and
no interceptions — ran
for 119 yards and one
score on 12 attempts.
Sheb Harris with three
yards and Josh Wamsley
with minus-4 rounded
out Point Pleasant’s
running game with one
carry apiece.
For PPHS receivers,
Alec Smith had one grab
for seven yards, while
Jason Wamsley caught
one pass for ﬁve yards.
For Ripley, quarterback
Brayden Campbell led
the ground attack with

75 yards on 13 totes, followed by Chance Morgan
with 60 yards on 20 carries, and Chase Morgan
with 45 yards on 12 carries. Rocky Ford had 30
yards on three carries, Ty
Eshenaur added 11 yards
on a trio of attempts,
while Robert Evans ran
once for three yards.
Campbell was 4-of-14

passing for 47 yards
with one interception.
Four Vikings caught one
pass in the loss, led by
Anthony Jarvis with a
17-yard reception. Chase
Morgan caught a 16-yard
pass, Chance Morgan
hauled in a 13-yard
pass, while Eshenaur
gained one yard on his
reception.

PPHS will be at Ohio
Valley Bank Track
and Field for its home
opener against Gallia
Academy, next Friday.
Ripley will look to
bounce back against
Riverside, when the
Vikings visit the
Warriors next Friday.

PEDRO, Ohio —
The perfect start
continues.
On Thursday
night, the Gallia
Academy volleyball
team moved to 6-0
for the season, as the
Blue Angels claimed
an Ohio Valley
Conference victory
over host Rock Hill,
in straight games.
Rock Hill never
led and managed just
one service point in
the ﬁrst game, which
Gallia Academy (6-0,
3-0 OVC) won 25-9.
The Redwomen
lead 2-0 in the
second game, but
GAHS took the lead
at 3-2 and never
relinquished it.
RHHS held close
with the reigning
OVC champion for a
while in the second,
but the Blue Angels
ended the game with
a 7-0 run to seal the
25-15 triumph.
Gallia Academy
never trailed in the
ﬁnale, allowing Rock
Hill to record just
two service points,
while capping off

three-fourths of them
being on goal.
Meanwhile, the
Defenders had just ﬁve
shots on goal — as the
overwhelming majority
of the match took
place deep in Belpre’s
offensive third.
Wyatt Fields ﬁnished
with ﬁve of the Golden

Eagles’ eight goals,
including the ﬁrst four
— followed by a pair
of unassisted goals by
Kellar Windland.
Windland, who had
a hat trick of assists,
assisted on Belpre’s
ﬁnal goal — by Allen
Frank with 23 minutes
and 45 seconds to play.

Belpre scored
its game-tying and
go-ahead goals just 46
seconds apart in the
ﬁnal two minutes of the
ﬁrst half, as Fields tied
the match with 1:48
left — before getting
the go-ahead tally at the
1:02 mark.
Fields then needed

just 45 seconds into the
second half to double
up the Defenders, as
Windland assisted
on two goals —
sandwiched around
an assist by Kiser
Windland.
Kellar Windland then
made it 5-2 and 6-2
only moments later,
recording unassisted
markers at the 36-anda-half and 31:41
junctures.
Fields’ ﬁfth — and
ﬁnal — goal was with
29 minutes remaining,
as Evan Buttermore
mustered the assist.
The Golden Eagles
ended the scoring only
ﬁve minutes and 45
seconds later — with
Frank’s footer into the
net.
Ohio Valley Christian
School senior
goalkeeper Michael
Gruber garnered
15 saves, as Belpre
booted 16 corner kicks
compared to none for
the Defenders.
The Golden Eagles’
opening half featured 17
shots including a dozen
on goal, but it wasn’t
until they trailed 2-1
before they kick-started

three points, giving the
Lady Defenders a 25-22
win and a 2-0 lead in the
match.
The third game featured three early lead
changes and eight ties,
the last of which came at
11-all. OVCS claimed the

23rd point of the game
and never trailed again,
taking the 25-21 victory
and the match sweep.
Katie Bradley led the
OVCS service attack
with 13 points, followed
by Katie Westfall with
12 points and six aces.

Actually, OVCS started
super-fast, making the
spectators who were
late, turned away or even
blinked wonder what had
happened.
That’s because, only a

stunned Belpre with a

After Fields’ ﬁrst

This one was off a
penalty kick, which was
taken by sophomore

the Belpre keeper to his

However, the Defenders ﬁnished with only

Eagles remain unbeaten
By Bryan Walters
bwalters@civitasmedia.com

BELPRE, Ohio — The
Eagles keep rolling along.
The Eastern golf team
remained unbeaten in
league play following a
14-stroke victory over host
Belpre Thursday night during a Tri-Valley Conference
Hocking Division tri-match
between the Eagles, Golden
Eagles and Wahama at
Oxbow Country Club in

Washington County.
EHS improved to 6-0 in
TVC Hocking play after
posting a winning tally of
181, which was well ahead
of the runner-up effort ﬁred
by Belpre (195). BHS did,
however, pick up a victory
over the White Falcons as
Wahama shot a team tally
of 226.
Eastern’s Kaleb Honaker
earned medalist honors
with a 39, while Hunter Gilbert of Belpre was the over-

all runner-up with a 45.
Ryan Harbour followed
Honaker for EHS with a 46,
while John Harris and John
Little rounded out the winning tally with respective
efforts of 47 and 49. Garrett
Chalfant and Nathan Hensley also ﬁred rounds of 49
and 57 for the Eagles.
Maddie Roby followed
Gilbert with a 46 for BHS,
with Jeremiah Stitz and
Brittany Shaffer completing
the second place effort with

identical rounds of 52.
Anthony Ortiz paced
WHS with a 52, with Jace
Heckaman and Gage Smith
adding respective efforts of
53 and 55. Walker Stanhope
rounded out the Wahama
tally with a 66, while Tori
Robinson and Destiny Sayre
also carded scores of 69 and
70.
Eastern is now 16-3 overall in matches this fall.

Blue Devils
trounce
Panthers in
OVC opener
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@civitasmedia.com

CENTENARY, Ohio — What a way to
kick off in a new conference.
That’s because the Gallia Academy
High School soccer squad, in opening Ohio Valley Conference action,
squashed the Chesapeake Panthers 6-1
on Thursday night at Gallia Academy
High School’s Lester Field.
The Blue Devils scored a pair of goals
in the opening half before four more
goals, including three by senior striker
Isaiah Lester, in the second.
The only Panther point came with 11
minutes remaining in the contest.
The Blue Devils, formerly of the
lameduck Southeastern Ohio Athletic
League in soccer, are in their initial season of competing in the OVC — which
itself is in its ﬁrst season of soccer as a
conference.
Chesapeake, Fairland, Gallia Academy, Rock Hill and South Point all offer
the sport.
The Blue Devils are now 1-2-0 overall.
Against Chesapeake, Gallia Academy
amounted a 2-0 halftime lead — thanks
to goals by Miguel Velasco with 32 minutes left and by Lester at the 26-minute
mark.
Lester landed three more goals in the
second stanza, increasing his tally total
to nine for the season.
He scored with 28, 23 and ﬁnally with
two minutes remaining, while Erin Lincoln added her ﬁrst goal of the year —
at the 23-minute juncture.
Through their opening two matches,
in which the Blue Devils faced Alexander and Athens, Lester had scored the
ﬁrst ﬁve goals of the campaign.
Four Blue Devils accounted for ﬁve
assists on Thursday, including Pedro
Carrascal with a pair.
Velasco, Madi Oiler and Jacob Ratliff
registered assists as well.
Gallia Academy outshot the Panthers
23-7, including six shots apiece by Lester, Lincoln and Velasco.
The Blue Devils also collected three
corner kicks compared to one for Chesapeake.
Gallia Academy goalkeepers Ben
Rutherford and Andrew Toler combined
for three saves, including two by Toler.
The Blue and White will return to
action on Tuesday night at another former SEOAL foe — Warren.
Warren — like Athens, Alexander and
even Jackson — are now non-league
tilts for GAHS.

FLOWER SHOW RESULTS
For complete flower show results, see Page 2C

MEIGS COUNTY — Flower enthusiasts around the
area begin planning for the
Meigs County Fair Flower
Show in early spring. Seeds
and specimens are selected,
soil cultivated, and plants lovingly nurtured until ready for
exhibit.
Garden clubs decide on the
theme of the show and begin
preparations as well.
Bringing the show to fruition was worth it, according
to exhibitors and volunteers,
who endured high temperatures and humidity to deliver
a superlative show to the fair.
Committees for the event
included ﬂower show chair
and publicity, headed by
Wildwood Garden Club;
responsibility for staging/
placement/clerk was given
to Rutland Friendly Garden
Club; the Chester Garden
Club decorated the entryway;
class signs were made by the
Shade Valley Garden Club;
and photography was entrusted to Winding Trail Garden
Club. All joined in the setup
and cleanup after the show.
Rules for exhibits are
deﬁned, and judging used
at the show is the standard
system according to the Ohio
Association of Garden Clubs
Handbook. An accredited
judge from outside Meigs
County is responsible for the
judging the entries.
Some examples of standard
rules follows:Artistic design
is to be no wider than 28
inches and no taller than
48 inches. Exhibitor classes
include Adult and Junior,
with the latter open to anyone under 19 years of age.
Horticulture specimens are
required to be labeled with
the genus, species and variety name on the back of the
entry tag (i.e. rose, hybrid
tea and double delight).
Specimen stems may not be
taller than 18 inches.
No artiﬁcial plant materials
are allowed in any class, and
arrangements must contain
some plant material; the
use of fresh plant material
is encouraged and must not
be artiﬁcially colored. Dried
material are allowed to be
used and may be artiﬁcially
colored or treated if the class
requires.
Visitors to the 2016 show
were privy to a variety of
artistic designs, with the
theme of “Discovering Ohio.”
Numerous horticultural specimens on display showcased
the variety of both garden
and wild ﬂowers grown in
the county.
In case you missed this
year’s show, garden clubs
throughout southeastern
Ohio have events throughout
the year for both members
and the public. The clubs are
also looking for new members of all ages to participate
and learn more about horticulture and ﬂoral design.
Several clubs in Meigs
are members of the Ohio
Association of Garden Clubs.
The state’s 88 counties are
divided into 14 regions or
clusters of counties. Meigs
is part of Region 11, which
also includes Athens, Gallia,
Hocking, Jackson, Vinton and
Washington.
