The strong showing by Israel’s longestserving leader could give him another opportunity to form a government following the March election, after falling short in two previous attempts earlier this year. The apparent victory over Likud lawmaker Gideon Saar also keeps alive Netanyahu’s hopes of winning immunity from prosecution after being indicted last month on a series of corruption charges. “A giant victory,” Netanyahu tweeted early Friday, just over an hour after polls closed.

With unparalleled “Now Jesus loved empathy, Christ comes Martha and her sister alongside us in our sorrow. And what a marvelous reality that is. But there’s something else I want us to see. Not only does Christ relate to us in our grief, He is the champion over death. Listen to what Jesus tells Martha when she comes to him: “‘I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?’” (v. 25-26 ESV). “She said to him, ‘Yes, Lord; I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who is coming into the world’” (v. 27 ESV). Indeed, He is the promised Messiah. And He is coming into the world again one day. Just as Christ raised Lazarus from the dead, so will He raise all who have died believing in Him. “For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive” (1 Cor. 15:21-22 ESV). Christ is victorious over death. And when we receive Him as our Lord and Savior, we share in that victory (see 1 Cor. 15:55-57). No matter what kind of grief we face, we ﬁnd life in the arms of a Savior who understands. We ﬁnd comfort in the arms of a Savior who understands. Why? Because He came as a baby on that day we call Christmas. Christmas may not look the same this year. Perhaps someone is missing. But Christ has come. He understands your pain. He is life. And I pray you ﬁnd comfort in that most precious truth. Isaiah Pauley is the Minister of Worship for Faith Baptist Church in Mason, W.Va.

This December, Day is a celebrity college football coach, the reigning Big Ten coach of the year — an honor not even bestowed on Meyer — and has his eye on a national championship. His Ohio State team is considered one of the best ever. “That does seem like a long time ago,” Day Michael Conroy | AP Ohio State coach Ryan Day holds the trophy following the team’s 34-21 win over Wisconsin in the Big Ten championship early Dec. 8 in Indianapolis. said of his Dec. 4, 2018, appointment as Meyer’s successor. “A lot of things have happened since then.” The understatement of Lingering knee issue still bothering Ohio State’s Fields SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields may not be fully healthy when the second-ranked Buckeyes face No. 3 Clemson in the Fiesta Bowl. Fields said Tuesday his left knee is only 80 to 85% heading into Saturday’s College Football Playoff semiﬁnal in Glendale. He plans to wear a small brace during the game and brought a larger one in case anything happens. “My knee’s probably not where I want it to be right now,” Fields said. “But I think with treatment every day and just resting it every day, hopefully, it will be better by the game.” Fields aggravated a previous injury against Penn State on Nov. 23 and again the following week against Michigan when a teammate rolled into his knee. He struggled in the ﬁrst half of the Big Ten championship game against Wisconsin before throwing two touchdown passes as the Buckeyes rallied for a 34-21 victory. Fields has been practicing in the buildup to the Fiesta Bowl but with limited mobility. “I try to get as many reps as possible,” he said. “I really haven’t missed any reps, I’ve just been getting in there and playing. I just can’t really move like I want to.” Fields ﬁnished third in the Heisman Trophy voting and was named the Big Ten offensive player of the year after throwing for 2,953 yards, 40 touchdowns and one interception. The winner of Saturday’s game will face No. 1 LSU or No. 4 Oklahoma in the national title game Jan. 13 in New Orleans. Attention etienne Clemson running back Travis Etienne has never enjoyed attention, preferring to let his play do the talking. He often skipped talking to the media in high school and once blew off an awards ceremony to play basketball. Now that he’s been to the CFP three straight years (ﬁve straight overall by the Tigers), the junior is starting to get more comfortable talking about himself — sort of. “In high school, I think I dodged media because I wasn’t obligated, but here it’s a little different,” he said. “I’m coming to love it, but I could deﬁnitely live without this part of the game.” Etienne began drawing attention last season, when he was named a Doak Walker Award ﬁnalist after running for 1,658 yards and a school-record 24 touchdowns as a sophomore.

Still a relatively unknown assistant when he was elevated to the top job, Day had been at Ohio State for just two seasons successfully rejiggering Meyer’s offense. He was 39 and had no previous head coaching experience beyond a three-game stint as interim while Meyer served a suspension last season. Meyer left the cupboard stocked with talent, but Day had some mountains to climb immediately. Quarterback Dwayne Haskins Jr. — Day’s pet project in 2018 — broke a bunch of passing records but was moving on to the NFL after one season. Besides ﬁnding another NFL-quality passer to ﬁt his scheme, Day had to keep recruits from bailing just before the early-signing deadline, hire new staff, ﬁgure out how to rebuild a depleted offensive line and ﬁx an underperforming defense. Above all those things there was the inherited pressure to never, ever lose a game at Ohio State. A month or so after he got the job, Day got his ﬁrst big break. He persuaded quarterback Justin Fields to transfer from Georgia after one year. Under Day’s tutelage, the highly intelligent Fields developed into a Heisman Trophy ﬁnalist. The Buckeyes ran the table, showing off an efﬁcient, high-scoring offense and one of the nation’s best defenses, led by consensus All-Americans Chase Young and Jeff Okudah. Ohio State is 13-0 and set to face Clemson in the College Football Playoff. In the Arizona desert on Saturday, Day will match wits with Dabo Swinney, who has coached the Tigers to two national titles in the last three years. Day got back from last weekend’s Heisman Trophy ceremony in New York — where Ohio State defensive lineman Young also was a ﬁnalist — in time to announce an early-signing recruiting class considered to be among the top three in the country. See COACH | 7 Murray wins Huff Award By Josh Strope For Ohio Valley Publishing WHEELING, W.Va. — To say Adam Murray has had a memorable football career is a vast understatement. He is a three-time state champion. He is the leading tackler in the storied history of Wheeling Central football. And today, he adds more hardware to his overﬂowing trophy case, being named the winner of the Sam Huff and Chuck Howley Awards as selected by the West Virginia Sports Writers Association. The Huff Award, which goes to the top defensive player in the state, is the third one for Murray, while the Howley Award, given to the stateás best linebacker, is his for the second straight season. “These mean everything to me and they are not just a reﬂection of what I did, but also my teammates,” Murray said. “All the supporters and my teammates and coaches at Wheeling Central, they put me in this position. I wouldn’t be able to do this without my teammates, coaches and the Wheeling Central community. “I also want to congratulate all the other players that were in the running for this award for the great seasons they had.” Murray will again be feted at the 74th annual Victory Awards Dinner on May 3 at the Embassy Suites in Charleston. Murray, who is the only multiple-time Huff Award winner, had another stellar season for the Maroon Knights. He had more than 150 tackles, bringing his total to more than 600 for his career to put his name at top of the list for a storied Wheeling Central program. He added ﬁve forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries. “Adam’s motor started running his freshman year and never stopped,” Wheeling Central coach Mike Young said. “To be recognized again, it is history he is making for himself and Wheeling Central. “He is a quality kid, well respected by his teammates and his peers. He is a tremendous student-athlete. This is well- Courtesy|Alex Kozlowski Wheeling Central linebacker Adam Murray was named the winner of the Sam Huff Award as the top defensive player in the state, as well as the Chuck Howley Award winner as the top linebacker. It is the third Huff Award and second Howley Award for the Maroon Knights senior. deserved in terms of what he has given and what football means to him.” And while the numbers are up there with the best in the state, this year, Murray took on a more important role. As a senior, Murray knew back in August he was going to be asked to take on more of a leadership role. It was something he was preparing for, going back to his time as a freshman when he looked up the seniors on that squad. With all eyes on Murray thanks to his previous achievements, the pressure was on from the beginning. “It was hard to get away from it because everyone is looking at you,” Murray said. “But I was able to block it out. In the moment, it wasn’t important. What I was focused on every time I stepped on the ﬁeld was winning the game and trying to get to the state championship. “The people that were always watching me to see if I was that good or not, it fueled my ﬁre and I played with a chip on my shoulders. I knew I had to be there for my teammates.” That role increased signiﬁcantly Oct. 18 in a loss at Martins Ferry. That night, starting quarterback Curtis McGhee III, another team leader, saw his season come to an end with an injury. Two weeks later, the Maroon Knights were beaten by two touchdowns against St. Clairsville. The mystique around Wheeling Central was seemingly gone and many teams and fans around the state were licking their chops at what looked to be a wide-open Class A ﬁeld. Murray had other ideas. “I knew when Curt got hurt, I had to be the one to step up,” Murray said. “I knew Jacob Rine would get the job done (as the new starting quarterback) despite so many people doubting us. “It was one of the things I made clear before the playoffs started. We knew it was not going to be easy, but we still had a shot if we really wanted it. It made me start working even harder at practice and I knew I had to step up and make big plays and bring up the play of everyone around me.” Murray and McGhee have been best friends since they were 6 years old. Seeing McGhee go down with the injury was tough on the senior linebacker. But he knew the way to reward him for his stellar career was to give his quarterback one last celebration at Wheeling Island Stadium on the ﬁrst Saturday in December. “Curt, Adam and Jacob all great up together, playing football, basketball, baseball together,” Young said. “They are more than just teammates, they are brothers. They banded together and stepped up for each other. “We went through the playoffs playing great defense and that was Adam Murray leading the way. He took a lot kids under his wing. He encouraged guys like Vinnie High, Payton Marling, See AWARD | 7 �SPORTS Daily Sentinel Friday, December 27, 2019 7 Sports company sues in letter ‘O’ dispute Six teams still battling for all-important first-round bye COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Oh no: A New York-based sports network has turned to the federal courts in its trademark dispute with Ohio State University over use of the letter “O.” Overtime Sports Inc., an online network focusing on high school basketball and football, has a capital O with sloping corners as its logo. Its application to trademark the logo is pending with the United States Patent and Trademark Ofﬁce. Ohio State asked the company in July to stop using of the logo, saying it was too close to its own trademarked octagonal “block O” letter. “While Ohio State recognizes there are many legitimate, nonconfusing uses of the letter ‘O’, there can be no doubt that when the vast majority of people see a Block ‘O’ they associate it with Ohio State and its Block O Marks,” Saman- By Rob Maaddi 2012 Ravens.

The university has used the block 0 since at least 1898, the letter said. Overtime Sports disagrees with Ohio State’s position and on Monday ﬁled a federal lawsuit in New York City asking that the university be prohibited from trying to stop the use of the logo. The lawsuit notes that Ohio State’s “O” contains neither rounded edges nor a rectangle in the center, as the company’s logo does. It also argued there’s no danger of someone confusing the letters, and that Overtime Sports has not unfairly competed with Ohio State or violated any of its rights. “There are numerous O marks, O-formative marks, and O designs in use by third parties in connection with the relevant goods and ser- vices, such that consumers will not presume that all goods and services offered under O or O-formative marks emanate from a common source,” Laura Popp-Rosenberg, an attorney representing Overtime Sports, argued in the lawsuit. Ohio State declined to comment on the lawsuit itself. “Like other many other universities, Ohio State works to protect the university’s brand and trademarks because these assets hold signiﬁcant value, which beneﬁts our students and faculty and the broader community by supporting teaching, research and service,” university spokesman Chris Davey said in an email.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Mason Rudolph’s starcrossed season is over. The Pittsburgh Steelers placed the second-year quarterback on injured reserve on Tuesday, two days after Rudolph hurt his left shoulder in the third quarter of a loss to the New York Jets. The move clears up Pittsburgh’s quarterback picture heading into the regular-season ﬁnale against the Baltimore Ravens. Rookie Devlin “Duck” Hodges will make his ﬁfth straight start for the Steelers (8-7), who are in a tie with Tennessee for the ﬁnal wild-card spot in the AFC. Paxton Lynch will serve as Hodges’ primary backup. The Steelers signed former Ohio State star J.T. Barrett to the practice squad on Tuesday to provide depth. Pittsburgh needs Hodges to be more careful with the ball. He’s thrown six interceptions over his past two games and was pulled in the second quarter against the Jets after tossing picks on two of the Steelers’ ﬁrst three possessions. While Tomlin stressed he had no issues with Hodges’ preparation or his approach, Pittsburgh’s offensive limitations at this point require avoiding the kind of mistakes that have forced the Steelers to play from behind during a two-game losing streak that’s put their playoff chances in a precarious position. There’s little chance the Steelers turn to Lynch. A ﬁrst-round pick by the Denver Broncos in 2016, the Steelers signed Lynch to the practice squad in September and he’s done limited work with the starting group. “What he’s done to this point hasn’t provided a great deal of comfort to him or to us,” Tomlin said. Hodges will have to play without center Maurkice Pouncey, who is out with a left knee injury sustained one snap before Rudolph went down.
