Six witnesses
testify in
Tucker trial
By Sarah Hawley
shawley@aimmediamidwest.com

POMEROY — Six
more witnesses testiﬁed on Monday as
part of the trial against
former corrections and
probation ofﬁcer Larry
Tucker. That brings the
total to 19 witnesses
over the six-day trial,
to date, including at
least 11 alleged victims.
Tucker, 56, is facing 31 felony charges
and one misdemeanor
charge as part of two
indictments in 2018
and 2019. Many of the
charges relate to the
alleged inappropriate
actions with women he
supervised as part of
his jobs as a probation
ofﬁcer and corrections
ofﬁcer.
Charges against
Tucker include six
counts of Sexual Battery, third-degree
felonies; eight counts
of Kidnapping, ﬁrstdegree felonies; six
counts of Gross Sexual
Imposition, fourthdegree felonies; six
counts of Attempted
Sexual Battery, fourthdegree felonies; four
counts of Attempted
Compelling Prostitution, fourth-degree

felonies; one count
of Theft in Ofﬁce, a
ﬁfth-degree felony; one
count of Soliciting, a
third-degree misdemeanor.
Two of the alleged
victims in the case testiﬁed on Monday. Both
women alleged that
Tucker had touched
them while they were
completing community
service work at the
Meigs County Courthouse during their
time on probation.
They stated that the
incidents made them
uncomfortable.
Unlike many of
those who testiﬁed
last week, both women
stated that they had
reported the incidents
previously to law
enforcement.
Major Scott Trussell conﬁrmed during
his testimony that
a request from the
Meigs County Sheriff’s
Ofﬁce had been made
to the Ohio Bureau of
Criminal Investigation
in 2015 regarding the
allegations of the two
women.
Trussell further
testiﬁed that a second
request for investigation had been made to

Meigs celebrates bicentennial
Staff Report

POMEROY — A large
crowd was on hand
Saturday for the Meigs
County Bicentennial
Parade and Celebration.
The day began with
Grand Marshal Governor Mike DeWine
addressing the crowd at
Wolfe Mountain Entertainment.
DeWine stated that he
was happy to be able to
be part of the county’s
bicentennial celebration,
calling Meigs County
“one of the most beautiful places” in the state.
“The Bicentennial is a
big deal and it is important for the Governor
to come and help celebrate,” DeWine told the
Sentinel.
DeWine presented
a proclamation to the
Meigs County Commissioners in honor of the
county’s 200th birthday.
DeWine walked the
parade route from the
Pomeroy ball ﬁelds
through Middleport,
greeting those who were
waiting along the parade
route.
Numerous law enforcement ofﬁcers and ﬁrst
responders took part in
the parade, as well as
many businesses, groups
and organizations who
decorated ﬂoats for the
event.
Awards were presented to the winning ﬂoats
during the ceremony
after the parade.
Float winners were as
follows: Commissioner
Jimmy Will with the
Meigs Flat Boat Co.,

place; 4-H clubs, third
place; Meigs County
Pioneer and Historical
Society, fourth place;
Village of Racine, ﬁfth
place; and Serenity
House, sixth place. The

fan favorite vote will
take place on the Meigs
County Bicentenial Facebook Page.
The main Bicentennial
Ceremony was held next
to the Meigs County

Courthouse following
the parade.
Speaking during the
ceremony were Congressman Bill Johnson,
State Representative Jay
Edwards, and Commissioner Tim Ihle, who
read a resolution from
State Senator Frank
Hoagland.
The time capsule
which was buried during
the 175th anniversary
celebration in 1994 was
unveiled as part of the
ceremony. More on the
time capsule will appear
in an upcoming edition
of The Daily Sentinel.
Following the time
capsule unveiling and
the ceremony, a Civil
War skirmish was held
in downtown Pomeroy.
The river currents
kept the planned water
attack with sternwheel
boats from taking place,
but the Union and Confederate soldiers still
battled in the streets and
with the use of cannons
from the Pomeroy Parking Lot and Mason Levy.
The skirmish was not
a reenactment of an
actual battle, but a short
display by the reenactors
leading up to the larger
reenactment which
was held on Sunday at
the Meigs County Fairgrounds.
Saturday concluded
with music and vendors
on the Pomeroy parking
lot, as well as the Civil
War Ball held at Wolfe
Mountain Entertainment.
More on the time capsule
unvveiling, as well as the
reenactment and related activities
on Sunday will appear in upcoming
editions of The Daily Sentinel.

THEIR VIEW

Working for
the Queen
of Lawns

While mowing my lawn on Sunday, I was reminded
of the time in the mid-1970s when I worked at Memorial Hospital of Union County as the assistant director of respiratory therapy. It was a nice
little county hospital and a wonderful
small city.
Today, Marysville is primarily known
as the home of Honda. They started
making motorcycles in 1979 and moved
into car manufacturing in 1982. Marysville is now the leading manufacturer of
Randy
the Honda Accord. That all happened
Riley
after I left and moved to Wilmington.
Contributing
While I was there, the biggest manucolumnist
facturer in Union County was O.M.
Scott and Sons. They were better known
at that time as Scott Seeds or Scotts Lawncare.
Scotts used the grounds around Memorial Hospital
as a test-bed for their seeds and lawncare products.
They even shot some of their advertising footage on
the hospital grounds. Needless to say, the lawn surrounding Memorial Hospital was amazingly lush.
For most of the time, the Scotts company was a
family owned and operated business. Just after the
Civil War, Orlando McLean Scott opened a hardware
store in Marysville. He was the ﬁrst person to develop
and sell seeds to farmers that was certiﬁed to be
weed-free.
After several innovations, Scott started to specialize in grass seeds. His company was the ﬁrst in the
nation to specialize in lawncare products.
The community is proud of the company and proud
to have the Scott family as neighbors. Marysville was
so proud to be the home of Scotts that the city’s slogan became “Where the Grass is Greener.”
Shortly after moving to Marysville, I developed an
appreciation for their role in the community.
My role as assistant director meant that I worked
the evening shift and was on-call for 8 hours after my
shift ended. My days were usually open until about 2
p.m.
One evening during dinner, a nursing assistant
named Kris was telling us about the lady she was
working for as a homecare aide. Kris worked evenings
at the hospital but spent the rest of her time at the
home of a 90-year-old woman named Jessie Scott. She
was the widow of one of the early owners and developers of the Scotts Lawncare company.
Jokingly, I said, “I’ll bet she has the nicest lawn in
town.”
A few days later, Kris stopped me in the hallway
and asked if I would like to do some part-time work
for Mrs. Scott. Jessie had ﬁnally realized that she was
too old to crawl around in her ﬂower beds and she
needed someone to help her. It sounded like a good
way to spend some off-time in the summer, so I told
Kris I would be happy to help.
Saying that Jessie Scott had the nicest lawn in
Marysville was a terrible understatement. Besides having one of the largest lawns in the city, her lawn was
also the thickest, greenest and lushest I had ever seen.
The ﬁrst time I visited Jessie, I wanted to take off
my shoes and run barefooted through her grass. I
think I even mentioned that to her. That statement
might have helped me get the job.
Jessie was very proud of her property. As I recall,
someone from the Scotts plant was responsible for
bringing in mowers and manpower to keep the lawn
and mature trees in tip-top shape.
My job was to do anything that Jessie wanted me
to do. She told me that she was very particular about
her ﬂowers, and since I didn’t have much gardening
experience, she would tell me exactly what to do. She
sure did.
On my ﬁrst day as Jessie’s gardener, she opened her
garage door to reveal a huge garage that probably held
every gardening tool ever made. She also had every
conceivable bag of fertilizer and weed control product
that Scotts manufactured.
I told her that I had no idea what I was looking at.
She told me not to worry. She would tell me exactly
what to do.
She sure did. One day, while planting some roses,
Jessie knelt down beside me to show me exactly how
to shape the hole, plant the ﬂower and where to place
the rose fertilizer.
Over the period of a few summers, Jessie and I
became unlikely friends.
I worked a few days a week for Jessie Scott. She
always knew exactly what she wanted.
As soon as I got there, she would have my day
planned and she told me which tools and gardening
products I would need for the day.
She never failed to bring me a nice, tall glass of lemonade on a hot summer day. She rarely laughed out
loud, but when I said something that tickled her, her
eyes would twinkle, and she would snicker. I loved it.
I’ve been blessed to be able to do a lot of interesting
things in my life, but being gardener for Jessie Scott
must give me some major bragging rights among
people who love to plant, weed, prune, snip and pick
ﬂowers around their homes.
Don’t judge our lawn today. Jessie isn’t here to tell
me what to do.
Randy Riley is former Mayor of Wilmington, Ohio and former Clinton
County Commissioner.

Measles leads to extreme measures
By Mike Stobbe

Greg Bull | AP

A couple embrace near a growing memorial across the street
from the Chabad of Poway synagogue Monday in Poway, Calif. A
19-year-old gunman opened fire on Saturday as about 100 people
were worshipping exactly six months after a mass shooting in a
Pittsburgh synagogue.

Parents say synagogue
suspect is part of
‘history of evil’
By Amy Taxin,
Christopher Weber
and Michael Balsamo
Associated Press

POWAY, Calif. — The
parents of a 19-year-old
college student suspected
of attacking a Southern
California synagogue said
Monday that they are
shocked and saddened
that “he is now part of
the history of evil that has
been perpetrated on Jewish people for centuries.”
John T. Earnest’s parents said they raised him
and his ﬁve siblings in a
family, faith and community that rejected hate.
“Our son’s actions were
informed by people we
do not know, and ideas
we do not hold,” the parents said in a statement,
which didn’t include their
names.
A gunman on Saturday
burst into the Chabad of
Poway near San Diego on
the last day of Passover,
a major Jewish holiday
that celebrates freedom,
and opened ﬁre with an
assault-style riﬂe, killing
a woman and wounding a
rabbi and two others.
“How our son was
attracted to such darkness
is a terrifying mystery to
us, though we are conﬁdent that law enforcement will uncover many
details of the path that
he took to this evil and
despicable act,” the
statement said.
Earnest’s parents,
who are cooperating
with investigators, said
their sadness “pales in
comparison to the grief
and anguish our son has
caused for so many innocent people.”

Southern

Earll Pott, a family
attorney who issued the
statement, said the parents will not provide a
legal defense for their
son, who will likely be
represented by a public
defender. They asked for
privacy.
About ﬁve minutes
before the attack, the
FBI said it received
tips about a threatening
social media post.
The tips to an FBI
website and hotline
included a link to the
anonymous post but did
not offer speciﬁc information about its author
or the location of the
threat. The bureau said
Monday that employees
immediately tried to
determine who wrote
the post, but the shooting occurred before
they could establish his
identity.
One of the tipsters
told The Associated
Press that he called the
FBI tip line at 11:15 a.m.
Saturday because the
post linked to a manifesto that said the author
was responsible for a
mosque arson in the city
of Escondido last month.
He says he found online
that had the mosque
attack had happened and
feared the new threat
was real.
The tipster, who
refused to provide his
name because of security concerns, said the
call with the FBI lasted
four or ﬁve minutes and
the shooting happened
soon after. He described
the FBI as quick and
professional and said he
doesn’t know what the
bureau could have done.

Rising number of US measles cases

NEW YORK — Quarantines in California.
Fines in New York City.
Orders for some people
to avoid public places in
Rockland County, New
York.
As an outbreak of
measles surges across
the United States —
with 704 cases this year
and counting — some
local health ofﬁcials are
trying to deal with contagion in unvaccinated
communities by turning
to extraordinary police
powers from the past.
“Unfortunately, we are
revisiting diseases from
another generation,” said
Jason Schwartz, an assistant professor of health
policy at the Yale School
of Public Health.
“And now we are
revisiting public health
responses from another
generation” in instances
where vaccination programs have fallen short,
he said.
Not long ago, measles
was thought to be a
problem that was mostly
solved. The once-common disease became
increasingly rare after a
vaccine became available
in the 1960s. In 2000,
health ofﬁcials declared
the disease eliminated in
the U.S., meaning that
all new cases stemmed
from infected travelers
and not from homegrown transmission.
A decade ago, the
cases numbered fewer
than 100 a year. But they
have been jumping since
then, with the worst happening right now.
On Monday, U.S.
health ofﬁcials said the
national tally already
has eclipsed the total for
any full year since 1994,
when 963 cases were
reported.
Twenty-two states

This year is shaping up as the worst in years for measles
cases, according to federal health officials.

have reported cases, but
the vast majority have
been in New York —
mainly in New York City
and in nearby Rockland
County. Most of the New
York cases have been
unvaccinated people in
Orthodox Jewish communities.
Three-quarters of
those who caught the
extremely contagious
disease are children or
teenagers.
No deaths have been
reported this year, but
66 patients were hospitalized.
The Centers for
Disease Control and
Prevention says this
year’s count includes 44
people who caught the
disease while traveling in
another country. Some
of them triggered U.S.
outbreaks, mostly among
unvaccinated people.
That includes the largest
outbreaks in New York.
Measles in most
people causes fever, a
runny nose, cough and
a rash all over the body.

A very small fraction of
those infected can suffer
complications such as
pneumonia and a dangerous swelling of the brain.
According to the CDC,
for every 1,000 children
who get measles, one or
two will die from it.
The return of measles
may be an early warning
sign of a resurgences of
other vaccine-preventable diseases such as
rubella, chickenpox and
bacterial meningitis,
some experts say.
In recent decades,
health ofﬁcials have
relied on doctors to
prod families to vaccinate their children
against measles and
other diseases. That
push has been bolstered
by requirements in
every state that children
be vaccinated to attend
public schools.
But as vaccination
rates have fallen in
some communities and
cases exploded, ofﬁcials
recently have taken
more dramatic steps. In

Rockland County, ofﬁcials last month banned
all unvaccinated children from indoor public
places.
In New York City this
month, ofﬁcials ordered
mandatory vaccinations in four Brooklyn
ZIP codes, threatening
possible ﬁnes of up to
$1,000 for noncompliance. City ofﬁcials said
57 unvaccinated people
have received summonses. The city also has
shut down seven religious schools that failed
to exclude unvaccinated
children, though ﬁve
were later allowed to
reopen after submitting
a corrective plan.
Last week in California, more than 1,000
students and staff
at two Los Angeles
universities were quarantined on campus or
sent home after cases
began to appear. It was
a limited order, and half
already are out of quarantine, ofﬁcials said
Monday.

Spain’s political future still hazy
By Barry Hatton
and Aritz Parra
Associated Press

MADRID — Spain’s
political future is no
clearer after its third
election in four years,
with experts saying
Monday that it won’t be
anytime soon before the
muddle is resolved.
The incumbent prime
minister, Pedro Sánchez,
celebrated after his
Socialist party won the
most votes in Sunday’s
ballot. But Spanish politicians were doing the
math on how Sánchez
might survive the next
four years without a parliamentary majority.
Spain’s political right
is fractured. The traditional conservative
Popular Party suffered
a humiliating defeat,
while the election
marked the rise of the
far-right and a high
point for an expanding
center-right party.
The results did little
to dispel government
uncertainty in the eurozone’s No. 4 economy.
It could take weeks
or months for Spain’s
political future to
become clear, said
Andrew Dowling, an
expert on contemporary
Spanish politics at Cardiff University in Wales.
“If the Socialist party
wants to stay in power
for the next four years,
it needs to ﬁnd mechanisms of accommodation to ensure a degree
of stability,” he said.

center-left party’s victory as an antidote
against a reactionary

Spain’s Prime Minister and Socialist Party leader Pedro Sanchez shakes hands with supporters
Sunday outside the party headquarters following the general election in Madrid, Spain.

wave of national populism, pledging to help
strengthen the European Union.
But the Socialist
party won only 29%
of the vote, and it still
needs to make tough
political decisions in
order to govern.
With only 123 seats in
the 350-seat Congress
of Deputies, Spain’s parliament, the Socialists
will need to negotiate
the support of smaller
rival parties to pass legislation.
Even an alliance
with the far-left, antiausterity party United
We Can — the most
obvious potential partner — wouldn’t give the
Socialists the 176 seats
it needs.
There are other
options, however.
Deputy Prime Minister Carmen Calvo said
Monday she believed
the election result,
which increased the

Socialists’ parliamentary seats from 85 to 123,
was “more than enough”
of a public endorsement
to allow the party to
rule alone as a minority
government.
Spain’s Socialists have
also noted the success
of the ruling Socialist
Party in neighboring
Portugal, where the
minority government
has an understanding
with other left-of-center
parties which provide
support by often voting
with it in parliament.
There is a difference,
however: In Spain, the
Socialist party came
to power last June in a
minority government
and lasted less than
a year after opposition parties, including
Catalonia’s separatists,
refused to endorse its
public-spending plan.
Another possibility
is a broad centrist alliance with the centerright Citizens party,

which shot from 32 to
57 parliamentary seats
in the election. But
Citizens party leader
Albert Rivera has in
the past ruled out any
arrangement with Sánchez and has in many
aspects been hostile to
the Socialists’ political
agenda.
On Monday, party
spokeswoman Inés Arrimadas again rejected
talks to back Sánchez,
while presenting
Citizens as the leading
force in the opposition.
Another unpredictable path that Sánchez
could consider is to
seek the support of
secessionists in Catalonia.
The unﬂagging
demands of separatists
for that wealthy region’s
independence led in
2017 to Spain’s worst
constitutional crisis in
decades, and the price
of their support may be
too high for Sánchez.

Rio Grande’s Zach Kendall fires a pitch plateward during Sunday’s 11-1 win over
WVU-Tech at Bob Evans Field.

RIO GRANDE, Ohio —
The University of Rio Grande
scored seven times in the ﬁrst
inning and never looked back,
cruising to an 11-1 mercy
rule-shortened win over West
Virginia University-Tech, Sunday afternoon, in River States
Conference baseball action at
Bob Evans Field.
As a result of the win, the
RedStorm closed their regular

WVU-Tech ﬁnished its season at 20-30 overall and 10-17
in league play.
Rio sent 12 batters to the

plate in the decisive ﬁrst
inning, parlaying ﬁve hits, four
walks and a wild pitch by three
Golden Bear hurlers into seven
runs.
The RedStorm added a second inning run and two third
inning markers to make it 10-0
before Tech avoided a shutout
with a sixth inning run.
The 10-run mercy rule was
invoked when Rio Grande
scored once more in the bottom of the seventh inning.
Freshman Gustavo Nava
(Barranquilla, Columbia) led
the RedStorm’s offensive explosion by going 2-for-4 with a
double and three RBI.
The trio of junior Eli Daniels (Minford, OH), senior

Roanderson Severino (Reading, PA) and junior Caden
Cluxton (Washington Court
House, OH) all went 2-for-4
with two runs batted in, while
junior Dylan Shockley (Minford, OH) and senior David
Rodriguez both had two hits
and one RBI.
Nava had a two-run double
and Cluxton a two-run single in
the seven-run ﬁrst. Rodriguez
closed out the game with a
bases-loaded single to warning track in right-center in the
home seventh.
Junior Zach Kendall (Troy,
OH) picked up the win, allowing one hit and three walks

By Alex Hawley

ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com

CENTENARY, Ohio — Momentum most deﬁnitely mattered.
The Gallia Academy baseball team picked up
its fourth win in a row, while handing Meigs its
fourth straight setback, as the Blue Devils claimed
a 9-4 victory in non-conference action on Saturday
at Bob Eastman Field in Gallia County.
Meigs (7-10) took a 1-0 lead on a two-out RBI
single by Briar Wolfe in the top of the ﬁrst, but the
Blue Devils (12-6) were up 2-1 after two-out RBI
singles by Garrett McGuire and Cade Roberts in
the home half of the inning.
Gallia Academy went up 3-1 on an RBI double
by Wyatt Sipple in the second, and then extended
its lead to 5-1 in the following inning, as McGuire
scored on a Andrew Toler sac-ﬂy, and Morgan
Stanley came home on after a bases loaded walk.
After a scoreless fourth frame, the GAHS lead
grew to 9-1 with a four-run ﬁfth, highlighted by a
two-run double from McGuire.
Meigs ended a four-inning drought as Andrew
Dodson and Landon Acree scored in the top of
the sixth, cutting the Blue Devil lead to 9-3. The
Marauders added a run on an error in the top of
the seventh, but couldn’t complete the comeback
and fell by a 9-4 count.
GAHS freshman Zane Loveday was the winning
pitcher of record in a complete game, striking out
six, while giving up four runs, three earned, on
eight hits and three walks.
Cory Cox took the pitching loss in 1.2 innings
for MHS, allowing three earned runs on ﬁve hits
and two walks, while striking out two. Alex Pierce
tossed .2 innings, and gave up two earned runs on
two hits and three walks. Wolfe struck out three
batters in two innings of work, while surrendering
three earned runs on two hits and two walks. Matt
Gilkey ﬁnished the game on the mound for Meigs,
striking out two, while giving up an earned run on
two hits.
Sipple led the Blue Devils at the plate, going
3-for-5 with a double, two runs scored and one run
batted in. McGuire was 2-for-2 with a double, two
runs and three RBIs, Cole Davis was 2-for-2 with
a run and an RBI, while Roberts singled twice and
drove in one run over four at-bats.
Toler contributed a double and an RBI to the
winning cause, Stanley chipped in with a single,
a run and an RBI, while Trent Johnson and Josh

CLENDENIN, W.Va. — Tough competition, tough
results.
The Meigs softball team fell in a pair of nonconference games on Saturday in Kanawah County,
as the Lady Marauders dropped a 12-4 decision
to host Herbert Hoover, before an 8-0 setback to
George Washington.
Meigs (9-15) — which has now gone up against
nine D-1 schools this spring — fell behind the Lady
Huskies (25-1) by eight runs after giving three runs
in the ﬁrst inning and ﬁve more in the second.
The Lady Marauders cut their deﬁcit in half with
four runs in the top of the third, highlighted by a
two-run double from Bailey Swatzel.
The Lady Huskies, however, capped off the 12-4
mercy rule victory with three runs in the fourth and
one in the ﬁfth.
Breanna Zirkle took the pitching loss in 4.2
innings for the guests, surrendering 12 runs, 11
earned, on eight hits and seven walks, while striking out three.
Presley McGee was the winning pitcher of record
in four innings of work for Herbert Hoover, striking out nine batters and giving up four runs, three
earned, on four hits and three walks. Delani Beckner pitcher a perfect ﬁnal inning for the hosts and
struck out one batter.
Hall and Swatzel both doubled once for the MHS
offense, with Hall scoring a run and Swatzel driving
in two runs. Ciera Older singled once and scored
once in the setback, while Alyssa Smith singled
once and drove in a run. Zirkle and Hannah Tackett
both scored once for the Maroon and Gold, with
Zirkle also picking up an RBI.
Leading the victors on offense, Cortney Fizer
was 2-for-3 with two home runs and four RBIs, and
Grayson Buckner was 2-for-3 with one home run
and three RBIs. McGee went 2-for-2 with double,
three runs and two RBIs, while Beckner was 2-for-4
with a run and three RBIs.
MHS committed two errors and left four runners
on base, while HHHS had two errors and three runners stranded.
Against George Washington (25-5), the Lady
Marauders were held to just one hit in the game, a
double by Zirkle with two outs in the bottom of the
ﬁrst inning.
The Lady Patriots broke the scoreless tie with
three runs in the top of the third, and followed it up
with three more in the fourth. After being held off
the board in the ﬁfth, GWHS tallied two runs in the
top of the sixth to cap off the 8-0 mercy rule win.
Zirkle pitched a complete game for Meigs, allowing eight runs, ﬁve earned, on 11 hits and a walk,
while striking out four.
Brianna McCown — a Marshall University signee
— earned the pitching victory with a complete game
one-hit shut out, striking out 11 and walking one.
Katy Darnell led the GWHS offense, going 3-for-4
with a triple and three runs scored. Emma Groe was
2-for-4 with a home run and four RBIs, McCown was
2-for-4 with a double and one RBI, while Ally Hartwell ﬁnished with two singles in four at-bats.
Meigs was responsible for all-4 errors in the game
and left two runners on base, ﬁve fewer than George
Washington.
After visiting Nelsonville-York on Monday, Meigs
will be back at home on Friday against Alexander.

Shooting kills college football
player, injures Giants’ pick
TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Washburn University’s
joy over one of its own going to the pros quickly
shifted to grief this weekend after a shooting killed
a current Washburn football player and wounded the
former member of the team who was drafted by the
New York Giants just hours earlier.
Police in Topeka, Kansas, where the university
is located, said ofﬁcers found 23-year-old defensive
back Dwane Simmons dead when they investigated
gunshots shortly before 1 a.m. Sunday. Cornerback
Corey Ballentine was wounded, but his injuries were
not believed to be life-threatening. Ballentine, also
23, grew up in Topeka and was picked by the Giants
on Saturday in the sixth round of the NFL draft.
Washburn coach Craig Schurig said Simmons’
death is heartbreaking. He said Simmons, a junior
from Lee’s Summit, Missouri, maintained a great
attitude even while battling through two knee injuries.
“Dwane is one of the most energetic and well-liked
players I have ever coached at Washburn,” Schurig
said. “Dwane’s infectious smile and love for football
and his teammates was truly inspirational.”
Farley said both Simmons and Ballentine have

NFL draft draws record
numbers in Nashville
NEW YORK (AP) — The NFL draft drew record
numbers both on site and on television.
The league said Monday that more than 600,000
attended over the three days in Nashville, easily
eclipsing the 250,000 that came to watch two years
ago in Philadelphia.
Nielsen reports that the draft on ESPN, ABC and
NFL Network averaged 6.1 million viewers at any
given time over the three days. The draft averaged
5.5 million viewers last year, which was the ﬁrst
time all seven rounds were on broadcast television.
The average numbers were up despite the ratings
for Thursday’s ﬁrst round being ﬂat. The combined
average for the three networks was 11.1 million,
which was down from last year’s 11.2 million. The
ABC broadcast averaged 4.5 million, which was up
21 percent from last year’s 3.7 million that watched
on Fox.

CINCINNATI (AP) —
With the exception of a
fourth-round quarterback,
the Bengals’ ﬁrst draft
under coach Zac Taylor
was more about upgrading their infrastructure.
And there was a distinct emphasis on Taylor’s
favorite side of the ball.
The Bengals got two
offensive linemen, a

a defensive tackle and a

ﬁrst six picks in the draft,
with quarterback Ryan
Finley ﬁlling out their top
selections. Taylor came
to the Bengals as the
Rams’ quarterback coach,
and they leaned heavily

toward improving the run
game in his ﬁrst draft.
Cincinnati ﬁnished
26th on offense last season and 21st in yards
rushing. Joe Mixon led
the AFC in rushing with
1,168 yards, but the running game was inconsistent overall. The Bengals
took a pair of running
backs in the sixth round
to ﬁll out the group.
“That’s the starting
point for us,” Taylor said.
“We’re going to put a very
strong focus on the run
game and it all plays off

run game going, the rest
of the offense struggles.”

ing pick, the Bengals
moved up and took Finley
early in the fourth round
Saturday, then immediately emphasized that
Andy Dalton is still the
starter.
Still, it was a noteworthy move. The Bengals
hadn’t taken a quarterback so high in the draft
since they choose Dalton
in the second round in
2011.
Finley will be a backup
for now, at least. Dalton
has two years left on his
contract and has fully
