FOR THE RECORD

RUTLAND — Law enforcement ofﬁcials from
multiple agencies spent part of the day on Tuesday
on McCumber Road near Rutland looking for an
individual who is wanted in connection to a federal warrant.
Sheriff Keith Wood said that his ofﬁce assisted
U.S. Marshals and Secret Service ofﬁcials, along
with Ohio State Highway Patrol and aviation,
with attempting to locate an individual who was
believed to be in the area and was wanted in connection with a federal warrant.
The individual was not located early on Tuesday
morning. Law enforcement was sent back a second time later in the day after a tip that the individual may have returned to the area. The person
was not at the location the second time either.
While on the scene the ﬁrst time, law enforcement reportedly located items which could lead to
criminal charges being ﬁled. Wood said they will
be working with the Gallia-Meigs Major Crimes
Task Force on the matter.
The original individual whom law enforcement
was looking for is not believed to be in the area
any longer, said Wood.

Both of the ﬁre levies in
the village of Racine — a
1 mill additional and a 0.7
mill replacement — were
approved by the voters.
All township levies
were approved by the
voters.
For a complete list of
the levy results see the
related story on mydailysentinel.com or pick up
the Wednesday edition of
The Daily Sentinel.

results are unofﬁcial,

IN BRIEF

Death appeal rejected
ATLANTA (AP) — After temporarily halting an
execution last week, the Georgia Supreme Court
declined on Tuesday to hear a condemned man’s
appeal or block a new plan to give him a lethal
injection next week.
Ray Jefferson Cromartie, 52, is scheduled to be
put to death Nov. 13 at the state prison in Jackson.
He was convicted of malice murder and sentenced
to death for the April 1994 killing of 50-year-old
convenience store clerk Richard Slysz in Thomasville, in south Georgia.
The state says Cromartie also shot and seriously
injured another convenience store clerk a few days
earlier. Cromartie maintains he didn’t shoot either
clerk, and his lawyers have pushed for DNA testing
of evidence they say will prove that.

making bicyclists more visible through clothing,
lights and technology would reduce the number of
cyclist deaths.
The agency wrote in its report that head injuries are the leading cause of bicycle fatalities, and
that use of a helmet is the most effective way for
riders to reduce their chance of getting a serious
head injury. Research shows fewer than half of
bicyclists wear helmets, according to the NTSB.
Such a requirement may prove difﬁcult politically. Currently no states require all bicyclists to
wear helmets, but many require them for younger
riders, according to the Governors Highway Safety Association.

OHIO BRIEFS

2 Republicans charged
MARION, Ohio (AP) — The former head of the
Republican Party in an Ohio county along with a

Day “despicable.”
The newspaper says the sample ballot highlighted
the names of four Republican candidates and said
the ballot was produced by the Marion County
Board of Elections website.

Detective shot during raid
DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — Police say a detective
was on life support after being shot and critically
injured at a house in Ohio while serving a drug-

related warrant.
Dayton police Chief Richard Biehl said Tuesday that Jorge DelRio was shot twice in the face
Monday while working with a Drug Enforcement
Administration task force.
Authorities say detectives knocked and
announced themselves as law enforcement ofﬁcers before entering the house. Police say DelRio
was shot as task force members went into a basement.
No one else was injured.

Drug cartel gunmen kill 9 US citizens

This combination of frames from video by Kenny Miller and posted on the Twitter account
of Alex LeBaron shows two views of a burned-out vehicle that was being used by members
of the LeBaron family as they were driving in a convoy near the Sonora-Chihuahua border
in Mexico. Mexican authorities say drug cartel gunmen ambushed multiple vehicles,
including this one, slaughtering three women and six children.

been raging for years in Mexico,
the attack underscored the way cartel gunmen have become increasingly unconcerned about killing
children as collateral damage.
Around the ambush scene, which
stretched for miles, investigators
found over 200 shell casings, most-

ly from assault riﬂes.
“Lately it’s getting worse. This
is a whole new level,” said Taylor
Langford, a relative of the dead
who splits his time between the
Mexican community and his home
in the Salt Lake City suburb of
Herriman, Utah.

LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Michigan says it

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Drug
cartel gunmen ambushed three
SUVs along a dirt road, slaughtering six children and three women
— all U.S. citizens living in northern Mexico — in a grisly attack
that left one vehicle a burned-out,
bullet-riddled hulk, authorities said
Tuesday.
The dead included 8-month-old
twins. Eight youngsters were found
alive after escaping from the vehicles and hiding in the brush. But
at least ﬁve had gunshot wounds
or other injuries and were being
treated in the U.S., where they
were listed as stable, ofﬁcials and
relatives said.
One woman was killed after she
apparently jumped out of her vehicle and waved her hands to show
she wasn’t a threat, according to
family members and prosecutors.
Mexican Security Secretary
Alfonso Durazo said the gunmen
may have mistaken the group’s
large SUVs for those of rival gangs.
The bloodshed took place Monday in a remote, mountainous area
in northern Mexico where the
Sinaloa cartel has been engaged in
a turf war. The victims had set out
to visit relatives in Mexico; one
woman was headed to the airport
in Phoenix to meet her husband.

Ohio facing troubling
trends when it comes
to prep football
CANAL WINCHESTER, Ohio (AP) — The late
August game between Pickerington High School
North and Canal Winchester was just a preseason
scrimmage.
Still, hundreds of fans ﬁlled the stands on a cool
evening that had a hint of fall to watch two schools
in the suburbs southwest of Columbus work out
the kinks. There were no college coaches on hand
— it was a dead period in the recruiting calendar
— but that will change, especially for Pick North,
where Jack Sawyer, one the country’s best players
in the class of 2021, goes to school.
There are ominous signs for high school football
across the country, with participation dropping
over the last decade amid safety concerns, a trend
toward specialization in youth sports and the
growth of other sports such as lacrosse. On a Friday night in Fairﬁeld County, Ohio, those troubles
are not apparent and the state’s passion for football
remains high.
But Ohio also has one of the slowest-growing
populations of any state and there are other troubling numbers: The number of high school football
players in Ohio dropped by 28% from 2009-10 to
2018-19, according to data tracked by the National
Federation of State High School Associations, and
NCAA stats show the percentage of Ohio players
competing at the highest level of college football
has slipped from 5.9% in 2013 to 5.1% in 2018.
That’s still enough to rank ﬁfth among the 50
states, but fourth-place Georgia has pulled away
and states such as Louisiana (sixth) and Alabama
(eighth) have gained on Ohio over the last 10
years.
As college football teams across the South beneﬁt from deep talent pools in their backyards, in
the Midwest and Northeast the options are getting thinner, especially when it comes to blue chip
recruits. North of the Mason-Dixon line, Ohio is
about as good as it gets in terms of quality and
quantity of football recruits. It draws recruiters
from all over who need to supplement shortfalls
in their own states. And after Ohio State is done
cleaning up close to home — Sawyer is already
a solid Buckeyes commitment — there is only so
much talent to go around.
“For us, our foundation is Ohio,” Ohio State
coach Ryan Day said. “The three-hour radius is
really, really important and I think you know we
have some of the best coaches in the country in
Ohio. So I think the programs are really, really
good. Some of the best-coached players, in my
opinion, come out of the state of Ohio.”
Mark Solis, 46, is the head football coach at
Olentangy High School in Lewis Center, 20 miles
north of Columbus. Solis has seen how changes
in the economy have caused Ohio’s population to
shift toward the center of the state and Columbus,
and away from Cleveland and the industrial towns
in northeast Ohio. In fact, he’s lived it; he coached
for more than a decade at schools in northeast
Ohio before taking over at Olentangy in 2013.

Surging Steelers clear the air

Pain, no gain:
Browns stumbling in
season sliding away

PITTSBURGH (AP)
— The franchise quarterback hasn’t taken a
snap since the middle
of Week 2 and has
essentially become the
highest-paid assistant
coach in the NFL. The
guy tasked with taking over left his third
career start after getting knocked unconscious. The running
game is a bit of a mess.
The wide receivers have
struggled to ﬁnd any
sort of identity or consistency.
And yet the Pittsburgh Steelers reached
the midpoint of a
chaotic season very
much alive following
a 26-24 victory over
Indianapolis on Sunday.
Their third straight win
pushed them to 4-4.
“We will work forever
trying to get that September stench off of
us,” coach Mike Tomlin
said. “But that is life in
this thing, and I appreciate the effort and
ﬁght.”
Pittsburgh’s resurgence has been led by a
defense that’s regained
its swagger behind
the kind of “splash”
plays it missed so desperately in 2018. The
Steelers managed just
15 takeaways last season, next-to-last in the
NFL. They’ve already
produced 22 in 2018,
including safety Minkah
Fitzpatrick’s 96-yard
pick six in the second
quarter against the
Colts, his fourth interception since arriving
in a trade with Miami
in mid-September.
Pittsburgh raised
eyebrows when it sent
a 2020 ﬁrst-round
pick to the Dolphins
in exchange for Fitzpatrick, a move made
just hours after a right
elbow injury ended
Ben Roethilsberger’s
season. The message
was clear: The Steel-

CLEVELAND (AP) — Odell Beckham Jr. wore
clown-themed cleats that didn’t conform to the NFL’s
fussy dress code.
The footwear choice was ﬁtting.
The Browns are a three-ringed circus, their coach
walking a tightrope.
Cleveland dropped its fourth straight game Sunday,
losing 24-19 to the Denver Browns, who started a
quarterback that had never taken a snap in an NFL
regular-season game.
However, more disturbing for the Browns were
deeper signs of team-wide cultural dysfunction and
that ﬁrst-year coach Freddie Kitchens may be overmatched and in trouble.
Those expectations of a special season are gone,
trampled by penalties, turnovers and red-zone ineptitude. Here’s the reality: The Browns (2-6) are not any
better.
“These ﬁrst eight games do not matter,” Kitchens
said Monday, going on a tangent after being asked
during his news conference why he’s not playing wide
receiver Rashard Higgins more. “It is not where we
want to be, but it is where we are and that is who our
record is so we have to own that.”

Addy Cottrill and Baylie Rickard had two points and
an ace each.
Tristan Wilson paced the PPHS net attack with 18
kills. Cottrill was next with nine kills, followed by Milhoan with seven. Dotson ﬁnished with ﬁve kills, one
block and a match-best 32 assists, while Warner came
up with a kill for the victors.
For the Lady Pioneers, Baylee Draper had two
points and Madison Fizer ﬁnished with one.
Coach Cottrill acknowledged that all of the Lady
Knights’ regular season success was simply to prepare
them for the postseason, and now a chance to avenge
last year’s season-ending setback.
“It’s all practice until sectionals, that’s what we
kept telling our girls,” Cottrill said. “It doesn’t matter
if you’ve won ﬁve games or you’ve won 30, nothing
matters until you come to sectionals, and you have to
play at sectionals. Last year we played Nitro twice in
season, and then they came back and beat us in the
tournament. I just heard that Nitro beat Winﬁeld, so
it’s going to be a little scary Wednesday, but it’ll be
good.”
The winner of Wednesday’s match between the
Lady Knights and third-seeded Nitro will face the

schedule is decidedly
user-friendly. Only two
of the Steelers’ remaining opponents currently
have a winning record.
Then again, the margin
for error is slim. Five
of Pittsburgh’s eight
games have been decided by a touchdown or
less, and if Colts kicker
Adam Vinatieri hadn’t
snap-hooked his goahead 43-yard attempt
in the ﬁnal minute on
Sunday, the Steelers
could be two games
under .500 and fading.
But Vinatieri missed.
And the Steelers survived.
“Four-and-four is a
good spot to be at,”
Fitzpatrick said. “Could
be better. It’s not where
we want to be at, but
it’s all we could be right
now. It’s a good spot
for us. We’ve just got to
keep ﬁghting.”
What’s working
Fitzpatrick’s arrival
gave the Steelers eighth
ﬁrst-round picks on
the starting defense.
The group is playing
up to its pedigree.
It’s not just the turnovers. Pittsburgh has
already collected 29
sacks, including ﬁve
on Sunday against
an Indianapolis line
that had allowed 11
all season coming in.
The Steelers did it
without defensive end

Stephon Tuitt, lost for
the season after tearing a pectoral muscle
against the Los Angeles
Chargers on Oct. 13.
Even with Tuitt out, the
Steelers have been able
to consistently generate
pressure, particularly
the outside linebacker
tandem of Bud Dupree
and T.J. Watt, who
have combined for 13.5
sacks.
“When you draft
them in Round 1, that is
what they’re supposed
to look like in their
mid-20s,” Tomlin said.
What needs help
Rudolph has been
steady if not spectacular since replacing
Roethlisberger, completing 66% of his passes with 10 touchdowns
and three interceptions.
He also hasn’t been
much of a difference
maker in the red zone.
The Steelers converted
just 1 of 4 red-zone
possessions into touchdowns against Indianapolis. Pittsburgh is in
the bottom quarter of
the league in red-zone
touchdown percentage (38, a number that
needs to change if the
Steelers want to take
some of the pressure off
the defense.
“We’re looking to
do our part more,”
Rudolph said.
Stock up
The Steelers exercised their ﬁfth-year
option on Dupree for
2019 but chose not to
sign him to a contract
extension. Dupree said
he was ﬁne with the
decision because it gave
him an opportunity to
bet on himself. He’s
already matched his
career high in sacks
(six) and has become
more effective against
the run. He shed two
blockers to tackle Colts
running back Marlon

Stock down
A consistent running game would take
some of the pressure
off Rudolph. The Steelers are averaging just
3.8 yards per carry
and have done little
in short-yardage situations, including near
the goal line.
Injured
The seriousness of
running back James
Conner’s shoulder
injury is uncertain.
Rookie Benny Snell is
also out with a knee
injury. Roethlisberger’s
injury could have been
catastrophic but instead
became a rallying point
for a team that believes
it is far more than
Roethlisberger’s supporting cast.
Key number
33: Receptions for
JuJu Smith-Schuster
a year after had 111
catches and emerged as a
star. Defenses are keying
on Smith-Schuster with
Antonio Brown gone.
Offensive coordinator
Randy Fichtner needs to
ﬁnd ways to create more
1-on-1 matchups.
Next steps
The Steelers hope
Rudolph can shake off
the early game issues
that have cropped up
since the second-year
quarterback’s return
from a concussion.
“Rudolph needs to
help Rudolph start faster,” Tomlin said. “We’ll
do some things. … Starts
don’t deﬁne us, thankfully.”

Schools, coaches more willing to fight NCAA allegations
LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — The ink
on the NCAA’s notice of allegations was
but a few hours old when ofﬁcials at
Kansas huddled with Jayhawks coach
Bill Self and crafted a strongly worded
response that not only disputed the
claims but went on the offensive.
The tradition-rich program, which
found itself in the crosshairs amid the
FBI’s investigation of corruption in
college basketball, instead suggested it
was the victim in a play-for-pay scheme
crafted by Adidas executives.
“We strongly disagree with the allegations,” athletic director Jeff Long said.
“We fully support Coach Self and his
staff and we will vigorously defend the
allegations against him.”
So much for a cut-and-dried infractions
case. Then again, few are these days.
The landscape of college sports has
changed dramatically over the past 50

fraud case, and has been retained to
help North Carolina State deal with its
own basketball scandal. The Wolfpack
were the ﬁrst school to receive an NCAA
notice as part of the FBI probe fallout.
Why is Glazier such an attractive
attorney for schools? Among other reasons, he spent seven years working on
the NCAA’s enforcement staff, giving
him an inside look at the machinations
of major college sports.
“More ﬁnancial resources will enable
any school or involved individual to
hire the best attorneys and conduct
a comprehensive investigation,” said
Michael Buckner, whose Florida-based
ﬁrm specializes in sports law. “In a few
cases I handled, where I had access to
excellent ﬁnancial resources, I was able
to interview more witnesses or collect
more information than the enforcement
staff.

“There is some truth to that,” said
David Ridpath, an associate professor of
sports management at Ohio University
and president of The Drake Group, a
college athletics watchdog.
“The big schools can ﬁght back
harder,” Ridpath said, “and pay former
NCAA investigators-turned-defensive
point people a lot more money. So that
is certainly an advantage.”
The moment Missouri was hit with
wide-ranging allegations of academic
fraud, much of it centered on its football
program, the school turned to Mike
Glazier of Kansas City-based law ﬁrm
Bond, Shoeneck &amp; King. Glazier has
represented well over 100 schools and
coaches in NCAA cases, including thenIndiana coach Kelvin Sampson and Louisville’s basketball program.
Glazier’s ﬁrm also represented North
Carolina during its recent academic

years, and the pace has only increased
the past two decades. Massive television contracts worth billions of dollars,
endorsement deals, coaching salaries
and the amount of money pledged by
well-heeled donors have raised the
stakes to levels unimaginable when John
Wooden was winning titles at UCLA.
The price of success is now measured
in tens of millions of dollars. High-proﬁle jobs are on the line every day. The
reputation of an entire school is often
tied to a single athletic program.
That’s why another change has
occurred over the years: When schools
run afoul the NCAA, they no longer
blindly accept whatever punishment is
meted out. Even those that suggest or
levy self-punishments often close ranks
and hunker down, hire outside counsel
and vow to ﬁght the penalties, big and
small.
