Daily Sentinel APPLE GROVE — An Apple Grove man was found deceased in a field near his home Tuesday morning, according to Mason County Sheriff Greg Powers. Powers said his department was notified of an unresponsive person lying in the grass in the 27000-block of Huntington Road (Route 2) in Apple Grove at around 11:45 a.m. Upon arrival, Powers said John B. Wallace, 88, was found to be deceased. After his department conducted an initial investigation of the scene, the decision was later determined to call the West Virginia State Police Crime Scene Team to assist, Powers added. Also, the Office of the Chief State Medical Examiner was contacted and responded. Wallace’s body was then taken to the state medical examiner’s office in Charleston for further examination. Though at this early stage in the investigation Powers said he didn’t suspect foul play, he also stressed the cause of death was undetermined. He added every effort was being made to determine the exact cause of Wallace’s death and the investigation remains active and ongoing. Assisting the sheriff’s department at the scene were troopers with the Mason County Detachment of the West Virginia State Police and personnel with Mason County EMS.

The piece is composed by Bill and Gloria Gaither and has group and solo performances along with narration. A few selections of the piece include “We Remember,” “Power of the Cross,” and the title song “Hallelujah, Praise The Lamb.” The program will tell the story of Easter — the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ all while capturing Annual Percentage Yield the hope individuals have in him.

Please indulge me while I celebrate some women in my life, and perhaps you will be motivated to celebrate those in yours. I had only one grandparent, Viva Moore Adams, as the others were deceased before I was born (That Dr. Vivian happened frequently back in the Blevins days when dinosaurs were still roamContributing ing the earth). She lived until her columnist mid-90s, and although some of her behaviors still baffle me, I viewed her from my earliest days as a teacher, a leader, an intellectual, and a “get- things-done-and-survivewith-dignity-and-honor” kind of person. From age 15 to 35 she was married to a tyrant, and by the time he died at age 39, she was left with four teenagers and had developed a fierce independence and knew how to navigate the often treacherous waters of life. My mother: Opal Moore Adams Bowling. My mother was a stay-at-home mom, and I thank her for that. I always knew that when I came home from school and called, “Mother,” she would be there. I also knew that when my sons were born, she’d be there; that when I needed to talk at 2 a.m., she’d be there; that she literally and figuratively saved lives by encouraging others with her philosophy of “I believe in you, in your wisdom to know what’s right and do it” and “Tomorrow, you’ll see things in a new light.” My sisters: Frances Kay Bowling Turner and Marilyn Bowling Zieter. My sisters were radically different, and both rather private: one closed off and one who gives and gives and gives to her daughter and grandchildren. She is the matriarch of the family, and I am the matriarch-in-training. My granddaughter: Hailey Zoe Anne Blevins Betiko. Hailey delivered twins five weeks premature in mid-January and had not only very tiny babies but also her own medical issues. Intelligent, compassionate, kind, and lively, she has learned to juggle the challenges and maintain her sense of self. Hailey’s mother, my daughter-in-law, Rhonda Carol Chadwick Blevins: I am so proud of who and what she is. Loving and an excellent partner to my son, she understands children and has nurtured her two to be fine human beings. She became a grandmother two years ago and is the best I’ve ever seen: responsive, loving, playful, and respectful of the parents. Best friends: Jane Schulzinger Fox and Tess Lewis LeMarr Castillo. Jane and I were young women teaching at a high school in Cincinnati when we became friends, and she became the godmother to my son Lance. Retired from the University of Wisconsin, she has stayed by my side through my journey across the country as I went up through the college ranks to full professor and then became a college CEO. During my time crossing the country, she has spent much time in Israel and has recently decided to make Jerusalem her permanent home to be close to her oldest son and his family. Throughout the decades, her words of wisdom, her ability to question me intellectually and personally, her loyalty, and her pragmatism have propped me up when I faltered and have helped me sort out the obstacles that are a part of life. I hired Tess as a director of continuing education at a college where I was president. Intelligent and beautiful, she took that department to higher levels than any before her, using her knowledge of the service area and her ability to build coalitions. She went on from that college to a university position, excelled in building the program there, and opened her highly successful international company. I work for her now, developing curriculum and teaching telecommunication employees. Throughout our time together, we have collaborated, and I know that she knows me and cares about me and my extended family. I also know I can always count on her. When my grandmother died, I flew to Atlanta and she drove me 400 miles to the funeral and stayed with me. So we’re back to my only grandparent who was such an important part of my life. My grandmother was never the kissy type of person. As a child, I knew never to take candy from the dish on the coffee table or get a Coke from the refrigerator or enter her house without knocking on the door and being given permission to enter. Her daughter, my mother, on the other hand, rocked me until my feet almost touched the floor, held my head when I was sick and vomited, brought me a glass of water when I was thirsty in the night. Oh, yes, and spanked me regularly – something my grandmother would never do. Women whose names will never appear in history books play such important roles in our lives, and each gives to us in oftentimes very different ways. I’m acknowledging those whose lives are firmly intertwined with mine. Maybe it’s time for readers to explore women in theirs before Women’s History Month has come to a close. THEIR VIEW Haunted by morels This time of the year rolls around, and I always write about morel mushrooms. So this year I am going to get off this merry-go-round and not talk about morels. Those I looked for in the woods with my dad. Those that mom rolled in flour and fried in butter. Those that haunt my dreams. Doris Lavy always found more than anyone I ever knew. Even after we went looking, she would find many more. We always tried to beat her to the woods, so we could get ahead of her. I would never tell Dad, but living at their house I would have gotten more.

Winston, Purdue’s Carsen Edwards and Wisconsin’s Ethan Happ were unanimous picks to the AP’s All-Big Ten team, also announced Tuesday, in voting of 15 journalists covering the conference. Michigan freshman Ignas Brazdeikis was named newcomer of the year. Joining Winston, Edwards and Happ on the all-conference first team are Michigan’s Zavier Simpson and Maryland’s Bruno Fernando. Happ is on the first team for the third straight year. Edwards is a unanimous choice for the second year in a row. Winston was on the second team last year. Winston is the second Michigan State player in four years named AP’s Big Ten player of the year, joining Denzel Valentine in 2016. The 6-foot-1, 185pound point guard held together an injuryplagued Spartans team and led it to a share of the regular-season championship. Winston has scored at least 20 points in 17 games and averages 19 per game to rank fourth in the league. He’s first in the Big Ten and third in the nation in assists (7.6), his 2.6-to-1 assistturnover ratio is best in the league and his 41.3 percent 3-point shooting ranks third. The second team is made up of Indiana’s Romeo Langford, Maryland’s Anthony Cowan Jr., Penn State’s Lamar Stevens, Minnesota’s Jordan Murphy and Michigan’s Ignas Brazdeikis. Brazdeikis, a 6-7, 215-pound freshman from Oakville, Ontario, leads Michigan in scoring with 15 points per game.

The Pioneers swept the twinbill by scores of 10-6 and 7-4. RIO GRANDE, Ohio — Point Park University took advantage of six University of Rio Grande errors to post a game one victory and then rallied late in game two to post a doubleheader sweep of the RedStorm, Sunday afternoon, in River States Conference baseball action at Bob Evans Field. The Pioneers won the opening game, 10-6, before recording a 7-4 triumph in the nightcap. Point Park improved to 8-6 overall and 4-2 in the RSC with the sweep, avenging a loss to Rio Grande in Saturday’s opening game of the weekend series. The RedStorm slipped to 16-10 overall and 3-3 in league play with the losses. Rio’s six miscues in Sunday’s opener resulted in half of the Pioneers’ 10 runs being unearned. Four of the six errors came in the fifth inning when PPU scored four times - without the aid of a hit - to snap a 4-4 tie and take a lead it would never relinquish. The RedStorm did score twice in the home fifth to pull within 8-6, but the Pioneers added single runs in both the sixth and ninth innings to nail down the win. Levi Martin was one of four Point Park players to finish with two hits, including a two-run home run in the second inning. He finished with three RBI. The quartet also included Ed Pfluger, Jake Forgrave and Antonio Carillo. Pfluger doubled and drove in a run.

Chris Beard was named coach of the year after his third season with the Red Raiders, who are 26-5 after going to their first NCAA Elite Eight last year. Seventh-ranked Texas Tech won its first Big 12 regular-season title, sharing the crown with No. 15 Kansas State. Culver is averaging 18.3 points and 6.2 rebounds a game, and is one of three unanimous picks for the AP All-Big 12 first team released Tuesday. Kansas junior forward Dedric Lawson, the league’s top scorer and rebounder (19.1 ppg, 10.6 rpg), and Kansas State senior guard Barry Brown Jr. (15.1 ppg, league-leading 2.0 steals a game) were the other players listed on all 18 ballots from a panel of journalists who regularly cover the Big 12 in the league’s five states. Iowa State senior guard Marial Shayok and Kansas State senior forward Dean Wade were the other firstteam picks. Culver got 14 votes for AP player of the year. The remaining four votes went to Lawson, the former transfer from Memphis who got 12 of 18 votes to be named Big 12 newcomer of the year. Beard was picked as coach of the year on 15 ballots. Makai Mason, the first graduate transfer ever to play for Baylor, led the AP secondteam picks. The other second-teamers were Texas freshman forward Jaxson Hayes, Texas Tech sophomore guard Davide Moretti and TCU teammates Desmond Bane and Alex Robinson.

Meigs High School led the local honorees with four selections, with both the Marauders and Lady Marauders coming away with two choices apiece. River Valley High School also garnered a pick apiece between its boys and girls squads. MHS also had a special award winner, as junior Weston Baer was named TVC Ohio boys Most Valuable Player. Baer — who surpassed the career 1,000-point plateau this season — is the first Marauder to win the TVC Ohio boys MVP award since Mike Bartrum in the 1987-88 season. Baer — who helped lead the Maroon and Gold to a fourth place finish at 7-5 in the league — is a repeat selection from last season’s all-league team, and is joined on this year’s squad by freshman guard Coulter Cleland. Representing 0-12 River Valley and earning his first all-league nod was sophomore Jordan Lambert. TVC Ohio boys Coach of the Year honors went to Mickey Cozart, who led Athens to an 11-1 league record and the program’s first league title since 2015. On the girls side, Meigs senior Kassidy Betzing received her fourth straight allleague selection, and was joined by freshman teammate Mallory Hawley. MHS finished the year tied for third in the league standings with a 7-5 mark. RVHS sophomore Hannah Jacks — a first time all-league honoree — was the lone representative for the Lady Raiders, who went 0-12 and finished seventh in TVC Ohio play. League champion Vinton County — which was a perfect 12-0 in the league — received both special awards, with sophomore Morgan Bentley earning Most Valuable Player and Rod Bentley picking up Coach of the Year.

In his mind, what separates them from a run-of-the-mill star is an insatiable will to succeed, the kind of drive that allows them to reach the next level. They set goals, sometimes absurdly difficult to achieve, and then spend every ounce of sweat and blood to reach them. Goals like 200 wins in NAS- CAR’s top three series. With Kyle Busch one win away from that milestone following his weekend sweep of the Xfinity and Cup series races at ISM Raceway, his 78-year-old owner is ready to group him with the elites. “I think he’s driven by big things like that, by records,” Gibbs said. “I know how bad he wants to win every race because I can pick up from him talking how bad he wants things. He’s driven by trying to do something great, so I think it’ll be a big deal for him.” Busch will have two opportunities to reach the milestone this weekend at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, California. He will be back in his Xfinity ride seeking his third straight win in the series, then will hop in his No. 18 Toyota to chase his 53rd win in NASCAR’s top series — a far cry from when “Rowdy” made his Trucks Series debut as a 16-year-old in 2001. “It’s pretty incredible, honestly, with what he’s done in the modern day to be able to do that,” said Joey Logano, one of his former teammates. “I know he’s got a lot See BUSCH | 7 �SPORTS Daily Sentinel Culver St., Sr. 6-3, 195, St. Petersburg, Florida. u-Jarrett Culver, Texas Tech, So., 6-6, 195, Lubbock, Texas.

He won twice in 2005, finished in the top 10 in points the following season and continued his march toward the pinnacle of his sport. He moved to Joe Gibbs Racing in 2008 and really caught fire, winning seven times, and he captured the series championship four years ago by winning the yearend race at Homestead. Just about the only trophy he’s missing from his case is the Daytona 500. Busch has built a 77,000-square foot facility that houses his own race team, along with most of the hardware he’s won over the years. Trophies are stacked upon top of other trophies, and the cases that house his Bristol wins are particularly full. “We’ve got our fair share of trophy cases we’ve gone through,” he said with a smile, “and every time we get a new one we seem to fill it up. They’re all over the place.” So is Busch. His successful Truck Series program soaks up plenty of time, especially when he slips behind the wheel for a weekend. He usually runs the maximum number of Xfinity races. He has been among the fastest cars in the Cup Series for years, regardless of engine, body or rules changes. He also finds time to dote on his wife, Samantha, and son Brexton, hoisting him up in victory lane on Sunday. “I guess the fact that’s impressive to me is he owns his own truck and he’s running his own race team there. That’s impressive,” Logano said. “It’s hard to do and it’s something I don’t ever really want to do. Obviously, when he’s running the Gibbs Xfinity cars they’re so fast, and he’s able to stack them up there as well, and he’s not too bad in the Cup Series.” Where he will ultimately stack up among NASCAR greats is a worthy debate. Richard Petty won a record 200 times in its top series, though that was a different era. The King is tied with Dale Earnhardt and Jimmie Johnson with seven championships apiece. And more obscure records such as lead-lap finishes are held by Jeff Gordon, himself a fourtime Cup champion. Then again, Busch has been able to win in just about anything with wheels, and the brother of Cup Series driver Kurt Busch is competing in arguably the most competitive age in the sport’s history. “You know, we’ve been talking about it for a long time,” he said of 200 wins, “and certainly, I don’t know what to say that I’ve not already said. It’s a goal I set out a long, long time ago.” He doesn’t remember exactly when, but chances are it came when he began racking up victories with Gibbs’ team. And it hardly surprises Busch’s owner that he not only set such an audacious goal, but that the 33-year-old driver is already close to accomplishing it. “I just think he’s an unusual talent,” Gibbs said, “and all of us that watch sports, me included, enjoy watching those unbelievable athletes, and we ask, ‘How does that happen?’ He can just drive the thing when it’s several degrees past where a normal person can drive it, and it’s just a gift.” Desmond Bane, TCU, Jr., 6-5, 215, Richmond, Indiana.
