Commissioner Randy Smith, who is also on the Meigs County Bicentennial committee, asked council for permission to hold most of the bicentennial events in Pomeroy on Saturday, April 27. The day will start with a parade at 10 a.m. and continue with children’s activities, music, food and vendors until around 10 p.m., according to Smith. The committee wants to use the parking lot for a stage and some of the vendors. Other vendors will be on Court Street and Second Street. Smith asked if council would consider closing Lynn Street to have inflatables and vendors set up. No decision was made for this on Monday. Mayor Don Anderson said the village got $105,000 in emergency funding to finish the riverbank project. There is now enough money to finance the rest of the project. The village had been short the funding after the project increased as a result of additional damage to the work areas from flooding in 2018 which occurred after the initial scope of the project was set. Anderson also said the village has applied for funding to replace the water meters and some waterlines throughout the village. If they receive enough funding, all meters will be replaced. Construction is planned to start in the next two weeks on the Route 833 sewer line project. The project will begin from Chester Street to the storage buildings and eventually to Dark Hollow Road.

Businesses, individuals contribute to scholarship By Sarah Hawley shawley@aimmediamidwest.com RACINE — A capacity crowd made for a lively and exciting evening on Friday at the annual Meigs County Chamber and Tourism Spring Dinner and Auction held at Kountry Resort Campground. “I think the best word to describe the atmosphere during the entire night was ‘fun’,” said Chamber and Tourism Executive Director Shelly Combs. “Everyone had a great time. I don’t think the crowd settled down all night! The food was delicious, the room was packed, and everyone was excited.” The event featured a dinner of steak, chicken or salmon prepared by the Chamber Grill Team, which was served by members of the Past, Present and Future Meigs County Fair Royalty and advisors. There were a total of 95 silent auction and 15 live auction items donated by local businesses, individuals and organizations for the event.

These young men have earned their grades and their right to call themselves team members of a nationally-ranked team and number two seed in the Ohio ComDr. Vivian munity College Athletic Conference Blevins that, sadly, lost in the final game of Contributing the tournament: Cameron Arnold, columnist Caleb Maggard, and Jaedyn Carter. These student-athletes have advice for high school students who plan to play college ball in the 2019-20 season. They know that there is a good reason they are called student-athletes and that the logo of the conference in which they play is “Outstanding in the Classroom, Community and Competition.” Those athletes who believe that being tall and a whiz on the hardwood are all that matter will find themselves off the team once fall semester grades are released. Know that coaches at colleges and universities are reluctant to pin their hopes for a winning season on players who don’t realize the importance of academic performance (And you can take that to the bank in spite of the corruption that exists in some locales). Cameron Arnold played point guard for Houston High School and at graduation was unsure initially where he wanted to attend college. He finally chose Edison State because it was close to home, it was inexpensive, and he wanted to actually get in playing time. He has another year of eligibility at Edison and then he plans to attend the University of Cincinnati, Bowling Green State University, or Ball State University and major in architecture. He understands the academic component of being a student-athlete and has the following advice:Don’t get behind. Turn in every little assignment on time. As a team member, he says, “We spend lots of time doing homework together, most nights after practice.” An example is his class in ENG 122: “We examine the work of other teammates and give opinions: What’s going good? What needs to be reworked, the thesis, the conclusion? What might be added that would fit well?” He adds, “As leaders the coaches expect us to lead, so we ask other players questions such as the following: What do you need help with? What can you do to boost your grade? And we know that getting to know the other students in our classes can be helpful because we can ask them questions.” Acknowledging that all colleges have libraries and learning centers, Cam says, “Everybody is going to need help at some time and these places are free and always available. If I think I’m not going to get a good grade, I go to the learning center, and they get me going down the right path.” Organization is crucial to academic success, and Cam has boxes in his closet where he organizes everything from school work to videos. With a job in the lumber department of Lowe’s in Sidney, Cam loves “design and good basic structure” and understands the job at Lowe’s is related to his career choice of architecture. In concluding the interview, Cam says, “All decisions come from deep thought, what’s coming in the future. It’s all about time management and work ethics. You’ve got to want to do it: it won’t do itself.” Another Edison State student-athlete Caleb Maggard didn’t know what he wanted after graduating from Oak Hill High School in Marion, Indiana, and was considering the U.S. Air Force or a four-year school when he met Edison State’s head coach, Kyle Vanover, at an all-star game and later at a basketball camp. The decision was soon made. To Caleb, “Basketball is like a brotherhood. We face obstacles and adversities as we have hard conditioning, exhausting practices, and tough games. The result is life-long memories.” His advice on academics just makes good sense with the challenges of, as he words it, “20 plus hours a week for basketball, two or three games a week, three-hour bus rides, barely any sleep, and an 8 a.m. class the day after a game.”He “establishes/sets priorities, tries to get the college work done three days into the week by following the syllabi closely.” Caleb adds, “Procrastination will do you in every time, so I carry a paper calendar in a folder of what’s due and when. I don’t use my phone to manage my school work because you can lose so much doing that, and you can get caught up in social media with the phone.” If ball players, “Live lazy, sloppy, they fall behind. Stay neat, stay focused, get stuff done,” Caleb admonishes. Caleb shares an apartment with Cam and stresses the importance of like-minded people, “Who you surround yourself with is important. Choose to be with people who are like you – especially with what some kids are getting into these days.” See ATHLETES | 5 THEIR VIEW Everyone needs a real vacation What is a vacation anyway? The dictionary says a vacation is: Freedom from work or study; a time of recreation. Being free from work sounds like what most people think of when they dream of a vacation. First, to be free from work, you have to have a job that is considered work. So, my first real vacation was in August of 1955. That’s because I had just finished my first whole year of work at the courthouse and was eligible. The one thing I remember about that vacation was meeting up with some friends who were on their vacation from college, and we played a lot of records while they smoked. When some of my friends went away to college, they came back after that first year and were smoking cigarettes. I remember the day well. We were at the home of one of our friends and playing such songs as “Mr. Sandman,” and then there were two songs by the Everly Brothers called “Bye, Bye Love” and “Wake Up Little Susie.” Do you remember those 45s? As they were all smoking, they thought I should be smoking, too. to believe it! As I I had no desire to was sitting there, smoke. But, do with those hot you think they let heavy curlers in me just sit there my mop of hair, a and not smoke? man came in the No. So I tried it.

I didn’t your own home. One of drink either, so I was my vacations was to go already known as “Miss with all my siblings to Goody-Two-Shoes” by the people I worked with. Elvis’ home in Tennessee. We were all adults But, now I didn’t smoke at the time. All seven of either. So, what was I us stayed at a nice motel going to be called next? and ate out together and I’ve had several nicktoured Graceland. Now names over my lifetime. My first was when I was my vacations consist of going to Florida to stay called “Mopsy” starting with our older daughter, in the fifth grade. (At who has a “Daddy-do” that time, there was a list of jobs that need comic strip by the name of “Mopsy.” It was about to be done around her home. We don’t work a young woman who all the time. Mostly we had a mop of hair.) My take day trips and eat brother-in-law took up a out somewhere different collection, and paid for every night.

These electric curlers were attached by be done to actually “Winter” in Florida. Here’s wires and hung from a circular base above your hoping that sometime soon we can winter head. You have to see it there, too. When do people stop taking vacations? The sad part might be when you no longer have anyone to go with you. I have read about how to “Take a vacation and stay in your own home.” It had to do with cleaning your house first. Then buying special foods that do not involve any cooking. Or have carryout delivered. Have several books to read that you know will be good. Turn off your phone. Tell only a very few people what you are doing. Don’t answer the door. And have some day trips planned that you would like to take by yourself. Everyone needs a vacation. Whether it’s with family or friends, whether you travel or stay close to home, here’s hoping you have your dream vacation and enjoy every minute of it. When I go on vacation, the first thing I like to do is buy postcards to send. So, when you have your vacation, send me a card at 223 S. Main, Ashley, Ohio 43003. Kay E.

See GAHS | 7 Point outlasts Panthers in 9 innings, 7-6 By Bryan Walters bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com HAMLIN, W.Va. — A different approach with similar results. The Point Pleasant baseball team didn’t have any major offensive explosions, but it still remained unbeaten following a nine-inning 7-6 victory over host Lincoln County on Monday night in a non-conference matchup. The visiting Big Blacks (3-0) built leads of 3-1 through three innings and were ahead 5-3 after five complete, but the Panthers (1-1) rallied with three runs in the home half of the sixth — giving the Blue and Black a 6-5 cushion headed into the final inning of regulation. Miles Williams received a one-out walk in the top of the seventh, then stole second and later came around with the game-tying run following a one-out single by Brody Jeffers — which ultimately left the contest tied at six through regulation. LCHS sent the minimal three batters to the plate in the bottom half of the seventh, forcing extra innings. Both teams came up empty in the run department during the eighth frame, but PPHS made its move in the top of the ninth after Williams led the inning off with a single. An error allowed Williams to advance to second, then a groundout moved Williams to third with two away in the frame. Kyelar Morrow produced a ground ball down the third base line that eventually resulted in a throwing error, and Williams scored on the miscue — giving Point Pleasant a 7-6 cushion midway through the ninth frame. The Panthers started the home half of the ninth with a hit batter, but a fielder’s choice led to that leadoff batter being forced out at second. LCHS then received back-to-back walks that loaded the bases with only out in the frame, but the Red and Black induced a strikeout and a groundout over the course of the next two batters — which ultimately allowed the guests to avoid disaster and sneak away with the hard-fought onerun triumph. Point Pleasant outhit the hosts by a 9-5 overall margin and also committed three of the nine errors in the game. Both teams stranded nine runners on base. Williams gave PPHS its first lead of the night with a one-out, bases-loaded double that turned a See POINT | 7 OVP SPORTS SCHEDULE Wednesday, March 20 Baseball Hannan at Buffalo, 6 p.m. Lincoln County at Wahama, 7 p.m. Softball Point Pleasant at Lincoln County, 5:30 Hannan at Huntington SJ, 5:30 Thursday, March 21 Softball Parkersburg South at Point Pleasant, 5:30 Wahama at Ravenswood, 5:30 Girls Tennis Point Pleasant at Winfield, 4:30 Boys Tennis Point Pleasant at Winfield, 4:30 Friday, March 22 Baseball Wahama at Point Pleasant, 7 p.m. Cross Lanes Christian at Hannan, 7 p.m. Softball Hannan at Tug Valley, 5 p.m. Track and Field Paul Wood Memorial at PPHS, 4 p.m. Girls Tennis Nitro at Point Pleasant, 4:30 Boys Tennis Nitro at Point Pleasant, 4:30 Alonzo Adams | AP Baylor celebrates after defeating Iowa State during the Big 12 women’s conference tournament championship March 11 in Oklahoma City.

(AP) — Kyle Busch has 200 NASCAR national series wins, the same number as Richard Petty, and the totals will never stack up equally into a pair of neat columns that make for an easy debate between the two. The wins can never be compared because they were in different eras, under different NASCAR rules and against dramatically different levels of competition. Petty and Busch were born 48 years apart, and Busch didn’t even meet the minimum age requirement to compete in NASCAR until 11 years after Petty’s retirement. So what is with the obsessive handwringing in comparing the statistics?

He succeeds Saul Phillips, whose contract was not renewed. Phillips went 81-77 overall and 40-50 in the Mid-American Conference over five seasons. Boals was hired Sunday and resigned after three years at Stony Brook. As a player, he helped lead Ohio to the NCAA Tournament in 1994.

The Detroit Pistons, playing without Blake Griffin, weren’t as fortunate. The Cavaliers made clutch shots down the stretch for a 126-119 win Monday night in a game that featured six ties and five lead changes in the fourth quarter. Collin Sexton scored 27 points, including the go-ahead 3-pointer with just under two minutes to play, and the Cavs defeated a Pistons squad that is fighting for a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. Detroit coach Dwane Casey, whose team beat Toronto on Sunday, was unhappy following the game, especially with the fact that Cleveland shot 58 percent. “I’m totally disappointed in myself and our team and everyone in our locker room,” he said. “Our defensive disposition was nil. Nil.” The Pistons (36-34) are sixth in the East, a game ahead of Brooklyn and 2 1/2 in front of Miami, but their previous visit to Cleveland — when they routed the Cavaliers 12993 on March 2 — might If you are 50 or older, you should have regular colorectal cancer screenings. have played a role in this loss. “I don’t think we came out with a healthy enough respect for our opponent — and we should have,” Casey said. “Until we grow up and understand there are no nights we can take for granted in this league, we’re not going to be ready for this playoff push.” Love was out with a sore back for Cleveland after taking a hard fall in Saturday’s loss to Dallas, while Griffin sat out to rest for Detroit. Andre Drummond nearly made up for Griffin’s absence with 21 points and 21 rebounds, but Detroit’s center was also displeased with the outcome. “We tip-toed around with them the whole game, and they went out and took advantage of it,” he said. Sexton’s 3-pointer gave Cleveland a 115-114 lead Ken Blaze | AP Cleveland Cavaliers’ guard Collin Sexton drives to the basket against Detroit Pistons’ guard Reggie Jackson, from Italy, in the first half Monday in Cleveland. with 1:54 left.

Reds manager David Bell said Monday that it’s likely Wood will miss the first couple weeks of the season as he tries to catch up. Right-hander Tyler Mahle, who was one of five rookies on last year’s opening day roster, is the likely replacement in the rotation.
