' ' Louisville's defense Bearcats still agog over firSt ranking since 1976 · scares no one, except maybe Cardinals fans : LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) - Louisville is off to its 'worst start in five years thanks to a defense that can't stop anybody and a high-powered offense that has managed to stop itself in crucial situations. "We have to get back to having fun out there. We have to play with emotion that we're used to show.ing, ·the excitement of the -Louisville defense," defen· sive end Brandon Cox said. "l don't think we have that right now, and I'm not rea). 'ly sure why that is." Neither, it appears, does anyone else. : Defensively; it doesn't seem to matter how or where the Cardinals line up. Zone or man-to-man. Press coverage or prevent. When the ball is in the air, Louisville's defensive :backs don't appear to be anywhere in sight. '"Certainly we're not . playing good enough pass defense right now to be a .good defense," said coach 'Steve Kragthorpe. : The Cardinals, who are '104th in the country against the pass, would likely settle for simply being average on Saturday when they travel to North Carolina State. "We just have to quit pretty much babying ourselves and keeping our heads down, show Louisville pride, go out, play defense and stop people," Cox said. "We can 't get off the field right now. " There is no quick fix, Kragthorpe said. Though he's continually evaluating players trying to find a mix that works, he knows teams will continue to test Louisville's inexperienced secondary until it proves it .can stop people. "I've been in these situations before, as a /layer, assistant coach an head ,. coach and the magic formula is work ," Kragthorpe said. "We've got to hang together, got to continue to fight, continue to stare adversity in the face and knock it down. We know there's going to be some criticism and we accept that." Kragt~orpe heard plenty of it on Saturday as Louisville lost at home for the first time in four sea· sons. "What they say on campus or out in public, we can 't let that bother us," Cox said. The challenge for Kragthorpe will be trying to fix the problems without further eroding his team's already shaky confidence. "You've got to make corrections and you've got to make sur.e the corrections are being well-communi· cated," he said. "At the same time, you want to make sure you're positive in getting guys up." Kragthorpe IS va~ue about making any sweepmg changes on the defense, but said there will be changes on offense. Wide receiver Mario Urrutia, who has struggled catching the ball and picked up two personal foul penalties in Saturday's loss to Syracuse, could be benched. "He's got to be consistent and he's got to keep his emotions in · check." Kragthorpe said. "When he gets frustrated, he can't let his emotions show outwardly. He's got to take that frustration and channel it into positive energy'' Wide receiver Harry Douglas, who is third in the country in receiving >:ards per game, will be available after being injured late in the fourth quarter against Syracuse. CINCINNATI (AP) During his first day on campus last December, new Cincinnati Bearcats coach Brian Kelly promised - no, insist.ed - · this would happen. He talked about competing for the Big East championship right away. He envisioned capacity crowd~ at a stadium that was usually .half-empty. He talked about national mnkings and glory days. And he meant it. "He got us believing: Why not us?" cornerback Mike Mickens said. "We're taking it to another level. We have more confidenoe this year." More than a little karma, too. The 24th-ranked Bearcats (4-0) are off to their best start . in"53 years and have their first national ranking sinoe 1%7. They moved into the Top 25 after their 40-14 victory over Marshall on Saturday !light in front of the largest crowd ever at Nippert Stadium. Fof the first time in decades, the football team is creating a buzz. "I've been here for five years and I haven't seen nothing like it," senior safety Anthony Williams said Thesday. "Being inside Nippert Stadium, sold out - it just feels so good. It makes you play 10 times harder than you did before. "As a freshman, I dreamed about it - seei11g a sold-out crowd." . Until Kelly arrived from Cenllal Michigan, it seemed like . an impossible dream. Coach Mark · Dantonio made the Bearcats respectable before leaving for Michigan Stat.e, but couldn't get anyone outside the team to care. The Bearcats drew an average of 21 ,000 .fans . to 35,00Q.seat Nippert Stadium last season - and many of those were fans of the visiting team. On Saturday night, that all changed. The tarps that covered empty seats were removed for the firSt time in years, allowing 35,097 fans to squeeze in. Players rdll over to the student section before the kickoff, and sang the fight song with the ' marching band in a corner of the stadium afterward. "You've got to have a foot· ball team that people enjoy watching," Kelly said. "And they're a· pretty exciting foot· ball team, so people want to see them play." Some of the players were watching a sports channel the next day when they learned they'd moved into the Top 25, the program's latest giant stride. : The 4-0 start has included three games at Nippert and on6 at Miami of Ohio, a 45-minute drive north. The Bearcats make their first true road trip this week, playing at S8Il Diego State (1·2) on Satrnday, night.

Classes last one-half hour each and go on for six weeks. The stretch bands are provided and the exer· cise is described as an resistance workout where partie· ipants can move at their own pace. Andy Brumfield, cardio· vascular health coordinator for the; Meigs County Health Department, said the exercise covers large muscle groups of the body with a goal of building muscle . mass' and toning the body. Brumfield said for older people the exercise will help maintain muscle mass which can ot'ten be lost over time. In the long term this helps prevent injuries. The exercise also promotes increased balance.

I lived in a nice town five hours away from .my family and nine hours from his. I had a good job, and his company allowed him to transfer to my area. After six months, I could tell he was not happy. Gii missed his family and friends. After a long talk, I agreed to move where his family is, even though it meant being far away from my best friend and 12 hours from my parents. I miss them, but I love my new job and can easily see myself working here forever. We are close to Gil's family and spend lots of time with them. However, Gil's best friends - the ones he moved back home to be near - have all moved away. The other day, Gil mentioned that he might like to move back.

The event was held as a fundraiser for the scholarships, which will be awarded to children and grandchildren of Michelina's employees. More than 120 participant~ 11ttended. The company has a large facility in Jackson that currently employs 1,300 people. Construction of an expansion is underway that will add 130 new jobs to the Jackson facility in the near future. The scholarship fund was established in honor of Michelina's founder Jeno Paulucci, whose entrepreneurial success is rooted in education and community involvement. Jeno started Michelina's in 1991 and has grown the company to be an international leader in frozen food manufacturing. "I thinkJeno's legacy is in this scholarship fund," said Senator George Voinovich, who was in attendance at the afternoon celebration. "The program exemplifies his commitment to education . People need education to maximize their Godgiven talents." To date, more than $100,000 has been raised for the scholarship fund. The first distributions are expected to be made spring 2008. "Jeno Paulucci has been investing in this community for more than five decades. This scholarship fund is our way to invest in our sons and daughters and grandchildren for many decades to come," said Joel Conner, Michelina's CEO.

' Also last week, an investment arm of the goveminent of Abu Dhabi bought a 7.5 percent stake in the managernent operations of the Carlyle Group, a U.S. private-equity frrm. In addiuon, the Nasda9 Stock Market announced 1t intended to sell a nearly 20 percent stake to Borse Dubai, and Borse Dubai and a group from Qatar also moved to become the largest stakeholders iii the London Stock Exchange. If foreigners' buying habits change, ·that could have a broad impact on financial markets - and U.S. consumers, too. For instance, if they sell their U.S. Treasury holdings, or don't buy new government bonds or notes, then Treasury prices will go down and yields will go up. . That will likely send mortgage rates higher since they are pegged to the I 0-year Treasnry note. That could unravel any gOO<! that has come from the Fed's rate-cutting action and put the economy in a precar1ous spot. It makes you wonder why this administration isn't doing more- or anything - to help the dollar. . t;rAH(ER. AV7 Stamping the herd Gene Lyons troversy really showed, however1 is that most professional pundits and politicians act as if the wise and sovereign American public is an easily bamboozled herd of goars and most citizens are. The invincible ignorance and gullibi tity of millions of voters has become the Great Unmentionable of American politics. Here's a brief summary: On the day of Petraeus' testimony, MoveOn.org, an organization of online liberal activists, took out a full-page ad in The New York Trrnes childishly headlined "General Petraeus or General Betray Us'!' How you know it's stupid is that MoveOn.org stole it directly from radio blowhard Rush Limbaugh. He's used it to describe Sen. Chuck Hagel, the Nebraska Republican, Vietnam combat veteran and Iraq War critic. Asked about. being called "Sen. BetrayUs" on ABC's 'This We.e k," Hagel blew it off. "Rush has to make a living," he said. "And he has a right to say whatever he wants." Limbaugh routinely calls Sen. Barack . Obama "Osama," Sen. Hillary Clinton "Hillery" and former Sen. John Edwards "the Breck Girl." He's a laugh riot. The text of the MoveOn.org Thursday, September 27, PageA4 ad questioned Petraeus's creative way with statistics. Many of his optimistic numbers are disputed by other intelligence agencies as Enron-style bookkeeping. ''If a bullet went thmugh the back of the head, it's sectarian," one intelligence official told the Washington Post. "If it went through the front, it's crimi· nal." But the White House prefers to discuss symbols, not substance. So to close last week's press conference, President Bush fielded a softball question about the MoveOn.org ad. ''I' thought that the ad was disgusting," Bush said. "I felt like the ad was an attack, not only on Gen. Petraeus, but on the U.S. military. (M)ost Demociats are (more) afraid of irritating a left-wing group like MoveOn.org ... than they are of irritating the United States military." On cue, Washington courtiers pressed scented hankies to their nostrils and swooned like Scarlett O'Hara. Oh, the incivility! Never mind the nine American soldiers who died that day, the hundreds of thousands of dead Iraqis, nor that Petraeus' s brilliant new strategy consists mainly of arming rival Sunni and Shiite militias for the ongoing civil war certain to sink to greater depths of barbarity after Americans leave. Know how many people live in Anbar province, where all this vaunted progress has taken place? Five percent of Imq's population. It's like pacifying Utah while New York and Los Angeles are in flames , But hey, let's talk manners and symbolism instead. Because aithou8h Abraham Lincoln never actually said it, you can, in fact, fool some of the people nearly all of the time. To our influential Moron-American community, Petraeus equals · the military, which equals the flag, which equals the United States of America. Meanwhile, Republicans, emphatically including Bush, who hild no problem with a GOP attack ad portraying Sen. Max· Qeland, who .lost two legs and an arm in Vietnam, as a supporter of Osarna bin Laden, pretended outrage at the MoveOn.org ad. Because there's no crybaby like a Republican crybaby, a Senate resolution was quickly written and passed. Knowing their constituents, 22 Democrats voted for it, inflaming many on the . left who accused them of cowardice. Everybody needs to calm down. These media epiphenomena have the life span of fruit flies. The real cowards, and the likeliest losers, are Republicans facing re-election in 2008 too intimidated by nonsense like this from breaking with President Bush. Meanwhile, this ghastly, pointless war drags on.

' L11st year's colors were deemed lackluster due to gloomy days and a lack of sunlight in Southeast Ohio. Munchel said the best diversity of color come with bright, sunny days and cool but not freezing ni~hts . Sunny days and cool mghts have been plentiful this September but so have dry conditions. According to ODNR moist conditions tend to keep the leaves on trees and prolong the season. Hal Kneen, Meigs County Agricultural Natural Resources Educator with Ohio State University Extension, previously ellplained the biochemistry of why the leaves change . colors by saying chlorophyll present in the leaves (the green coloring) is constantly being produced and broken down but in fall more chlorophyll is broken down than produced. This process gives v.;ays to the yellows, oranges and reds but these colors are enhanced by warm , bright, sunny days foflowed by cool nights below 45 degrees Fahrenheit and adequate soil moisture. These optimum conditions weren't present last fall, producing colors more lackluster than normal. To help Ohioans plan their outings, ODNR will. begin issuing weekly fall color updates on Oct. 4. The weekly fall color forecast will be available on the Internet at ohiodnr.com and by calling the state's travel and tourism hotline at 1-800- BUCKEYE.

' Also last week, an investment arm of the goveminent of Abu Dhabi bought a 7.5 percent stake in the managernent operations of the Carlyle Group, a U.S. private-equity frrm. In addiuon, the Nasda9 Stock Market announced 1t intended to sell a nearly 20 percent stake to Borse Dubai, and Borse Dubai and a group from Qatar also moved to become the largest stakeholders iii the London Stock Exchange. If foreigners' buying habits change, ·that could have a broad impact on financial markets - and U.S. consumers, too. For instance, if they sell their U.S. Treasury holdings, or don't buy new government bonds or notes, then Treasury prices will go down and yields will go up. . That will likely send mortgage rates higher since they are pegged to the I 0-year Treasnry note. That could unravel any gOO<! that has come from the Fed's rate-cutting action and put the economy in a precar1ous spot. It makes you wonder why this administration isn't doing more- or anything - to help the dollar. . t;rAH(ER. AV7 Stamping the herd Gene Lyons troversy really showed, however1 is that most professional pundits and politicians act as if the wise and sovereign American public is an easily bamboozled herd of goars and most citizens are. The invincible ignorance and gullibi tity of millions of voters has become the Great Unmentionable of American politics. Here's a brief summary: On the day of Petraeus' testimony, MoveOn.org, an organization of online liberal activists, took out a full-page ad in The New York Trrnes childishly headlined "General Petraeus or General Betray Us'!' How you know it's stupid is that MoveOn.org stole it directly from radio blowhard Rush Limbaugh. He's used it to describe Sen. Chuck Hagel, the Nebraska Republican, Vietnam combat veteran and Iraq War critic. Asked about. being called "Sen. BetrayUs" on ABC's 'This We.e k," Hagel blew it off. "Rush has to make a living," he said. "And he has a right to say whatever he wants." Limbaugh routinely calls Sen. Barack . Obama "Osama," Sen. Hillary Clinton "Hillery" and former Sen. John Edwards "the Breck Girl." He's a laugh riot. The text of the MoveOn.org Thursday, September 27, PageA4 ad questioned Petraeus's creative way with statistics. Many of his optimistic numbers are disputed by other intelligence agencies as Enron-style bookkeeping. ''If a bullet went thmugh the back of the head, it's sectarian," one intelligence official told the Washington Post. "If it went through the front, it's crimi· nal." But the White House prefers to discuss symbols, not substance. So to close last week's press conference, President Bush fielded a softball question about the MoveOn.org ad. ''I' thought that the ad was disgusting," Bush said. "I felt like the ad was an attack, not only on Gen. Petraeus, but on the U.S. military. (M)ost Demociats are (more) afraid of irritating a left-wing group like MoveOn.org ... than they are of irritating the United States military." On cue, Washington courtiers pressed scented hankies to their nostrils and swooned like Scarlett O'Hara. Oh, the incivility! Never mind the nine American soldiers who died that day, the hundreds of thousands of dead Iraqis, nor that Petraeus' s brilliant new strategy consists mainly of arming rival Sunni and Shiite militias for the ongoing civil war certain to sink to greater depths of barbarity after Americans leave. Know how many people live in Anbar province, where all this vaunted progress has taken place? Five percent of Imq's population. It's like pacifying Utah while New York and Los Angeles are in flames , But hey, let's talk manners and symbolism instead. Because aithou8h Abraham Lincoln never actually said it, you can, in fact, fool some of the people nearly all of the time. To our influential Moron-American community, Petraeus equals · the military, which equals the flag, which equals the United States of America. Meanwhile, Republicans, emphatically including Bush, who hild no problem with a GOP attack ad portraying Sen. Max· Qeland, who .lost two legs and an arm in Vietnam, as a supporter of Osarna bin Laden, pretended outrage at the MoveOn.org ad. Because there's no crybaby like a Republican crybaby, a Senate resolution was quickly written and passed. Knowing their constituents, 22 Democrats voted for it, inflaming many on the . left who accused them of cowardice. Everybody needs to calm down. These media epiphenomena have the life span of fruit flies. The real cowards, and the likeliest losers, are Republicans facing re-election in 2008 too intimidated by nonsense like this from breaking with President Bush. Meanwhile, this ghastly, pointless war drags on.

' L11st year's colors were deemed lackluster due to gloomy days and a lack of sunlight in Southeast Ohio. Munchel said the best diversity of color come with bright, sunny days and cool but not freezing ni~hts . Sunny days and cool mghts have been plentiful this September but so have dry conditions. According to ODNR moist conditions tend to keep the leaves on trees and prolong the season. Hal Kneen, Meigs County Agricultural Natural Resources Educator with Ohio State University Extension, previously ellplained the biochemistry of why the leaves change . colors by saying chlorophyll present in the leaves (the green coloring) is constantly being produced and broken down but in fall more chlorophyll is broken down than produced. This process gives v.;ays to the yellows, oranges and reds but these colors are enhanced by warm , bright, sunny days foflowed by cool nights below 45 degrees Fahrenheit and adequate soil moisture. These optimum conditions weren't present last fall, producing colors more lackluster than normal. To help Ohioans plan their outings, ODNR will. begin issuing weekly fall color updates on Oct. 4.

Belpre recovered the fumble. · they still find themselves looking for that elusive first win -that will break a losing streak now sitting at 15 straight games. The Green and White had their best offensive output of the season last week in a 30- 13 home toss to Belpre, producing 270 yarQS of total offense. EHS managed only 33 rushing yards, but an allout aerial assault generated 237 yards on 12-of-31 passing. It also produced four interceptions that led to 17 Belpre points. The Eagles are being outscored on the season 110-40, with the offense producing just eight points per contest. The defense, which allowed an average of 38 points in 2006, is currently surrendering just 22 points per game. First-year EHS coach Kevin Welsh has been pleased with the effort this season, even though it hasn't produced the desired result yet. He also felt after Friday night's loss to BHS that the second half of the year could get very interesting for his troops. "There's three seasons. You've got the non-conference, the conference and the playoffs. We didn ' t win any of the non' conference, so now we have to fight forthe TVC Hocking," Welsh commented. "We have every opportunity to win four or five games in the Hocking, the kids ju st have to believe that we can do it."

MASON, W.Va. -The Wahama White Falcons remained undefeated through the first half of the 2007 high school football season with a trio of plose finishes and a couple of expected shutouts. Coach Ed Cromley's Bend Area gridders must now jump headftrst into what will certainly be a much tougher assignment task during the fmal five weeks of the regular season beginning with a home date with sixth ranked, Class AA Clay County on Friday. The White Falcons remained in the third j)OSition in the latest WVSSAC Class A state rankings after an easy' 55-0 whitewash over Mason County neighbor Hannan. The locals continued improvement each week, especially on the defensive side of the football, has produced a perfe£t 5-0 slate to date with a last second 17-14 win over Waterford, an incredible fourth period come-from-behind 21-14 triumph at Federal Hocking and a second half touchdown to defeat Soath Gallia by a 14-7 margin being the highlight of the early season success for WHS. A pair of shutout victories over Eastern (35-0) and Harman (55-0) complete the first half of the 2007 campaign for the with ftve tough opponents awaiting their chance at Wahama during the coming weeks. The five remaining foes on the White Falco~s fall card sport an impressive 16-8 record with Clay County and Matewan leadmg the way with 4-1 records followed by Buffalo Putnam and Wirt County at 3-2 and Parkersburg Catholic with a 2-3 mark. In contrast the Ben~, Area teams first five opponents have posted a 9-15 record with Waterford at 4-1 , South Galli a 3-2, Federal Hocking 2-3 in addition to Harman (0-4) and Eastern (05) who are still searching for their ftrst wins. One of the better squads the Falcons will face during the second half of the season will be a veteran Clay County team that has opened some eyes with its early season success. Mter dropping its 2007 opener to Class AAA Nicholas County (2714) the Panthers have reeled off four consecutive wins over Braxton County (1813), Ritchie County (44-19), Sissonville (22-21) and Herbert Hoover (34-12). Second year coach Frank Klemen has seven starters returning with all but one member of his offensive line back for another season. E;ight starters are seniors with the remaining three regulars being juniors. Throughout the first ftve Clay County games this year the spotlight has shined on just three players in senior quarterback J.D. Johnson (5-10 190), senior running back Jared Kleman (6-0 170) and senior running back Jordan Adkins (5-7 150) . . These three talented seniors own 99.9 pecent of the Panthers scoring, rushing, passing and receiving yardage on the year. Kleman is the top dog · in the Clay County offensive scheme with the coaches son well on his way to a 1000 yard rushing season and possibly 2000 yards in total offense. Through the Panthers fir st half of the season Kleman has scored 82 of the 132 total points for Clay County and has ran for an impressive 677 yards in 84 carries. In addition the talented senior is also Panthers leading receiver with 18. receptions for 312 yards. Kleman isn't . the only offensive weapon for CCHS with senior Jordan Adkins rushing for 348 yards in 59 carries and senior quarterback J.D. Johnson has tossed a pair of touchdown passes while connecting on 29-of-46 aerials on the year for nearly 500 yards with only four of Johnson's tosses being picked off. Little used senior Allen Tanner (5-7 145 ) joins the big play trio in the Panther backfield. . Most of the credit for the high powered Clay County offense lies within tt!1 interior line which consists of seniors Donnie Sizemore (6-1 245) and Dylan Vaughan (6-1 215) at the tackles, senior Jared Sams (5- 11 190) at· a guard, junior Lucas Smith (5- 11 190) at a guard position and junior center Caleb 'Thomas (6-1 220). The tight end is expected to be senior Mason Hamrick (62 215) with junior wide receiver Daniel Ferrebee (5II 160) rounding out the expected starti~g rotation for Clay County h1gh school. Senior Derek Veazey continues to lead the Wahama gridders statisticall y with Veazey scoring 61 points on seven touchdowns, 16 extra point kicks and a field goal. The second team all-state selection has also ran for 435 yards and has completed 10of-20 passes for 168 yards and two touchdowns. Micaiah Branch has scored 20 points while rushing for 246 yards with Josh Pauley totaling 18 points while picking up .228 yards on the ground this year. Quarterback Willi am Zuspan has connected on 16 of 35 through the air tilf 180 yards and a touc hdown with Garrett Underwood hauling in 12 receptions for 176 ~ards and two scores. Gabe oush has live catches for 99 yards and a touchdown. Defensively . for Wahama the year so far has belopged to linebacker Brent Jones with outstandihg performances in each and every outing for WHS in 2007. Jones has received ample support from Micaiah B h T d ranc , rey An erson and Gabe Roush and Kevin Klingensmith . . James Gray, Colin Pierce and Kyle Zerkle are coming off their most impressive defensive, outings of the year in the White Falcons win over Hannan last week. The Bend Area teams inte. rior line play has continued to improve with each contest with added depth playing a huge role in the Falcons overall play. Jones, Caleb Roach and Gabe Roush anchor the line with Klingensmith, Anderson, Luke Ingels, Colby Davis, . James Gray, Kasey White, Scott Roush and Kevin Laudermilt contributing immensely in the trenches for Wahama. The White Falcons have given up but one touchdown over its last three games and Cromley's team must receive a like performance on Friday. WHS owns a 4-3 edge in the brief series with the Panthers which includes a surprising 28- 13 win on the strength of two touchdown passes and 124 yards ru shing by Veazey. Wahama averages 28.2 points pe1 game offensively while giving up 6 .8 points to \he opposition. Clay County is scoring at a 26.4 per game clip offensively while the Panther defense is allowing 18.1 points to the combined foe .

Belpre recovered the fumble. · they still find themselves looking for that elusive first win -that will break a losing streak now sitting at 15 straight games. The Green and White had their best offensive output of the season last week in a 30- 13 home toss to Belpre, producing 270 yarQS of total offense. EHS managed only 33 rushing yards, but an allout aerial assault generated 237 yards on 12-of-31 passing. It also produced four interceptions that led to 17 Belpre points. The Eagles are being outscored on the season 110-40, with the offense producing just eight points per contest. The defense, which allowed an average of 38 points in 2006, is currently surrendering just 22 points per game. First-year EHS coach Kevin Welsh has been pleased with the effort this season, even though it hasn't produced the desired result yet. He also felt after Friday night's loss to BHS that the second half of the year could get very interesting for his troops. "There's three seasons. You've got the non-conference, the conference and the playoffs. We didn ' t win any of the non' conference, so now we have to fight forthe TVC Hocking," Welsh commented.

MASON, W.Va. -The Wahama White Falcons remained undefeated through the first half of the 2007 high school football season with a trio of plose finishes and a couple of expected shutouts. Coach Ed Cromley's Bend Area gridders must now jump headftrst into what will certainly be a much tougher assignment task during the fmal five weeks of the regular season beginning with a home date with sixth ranked, Class AA Clay County on Friday. The White Falcons remained in the third j)OSition in the latest WVSSAC Class A state rankings after an easy' 55-0 whitewash over Mason County neighbor Hannan. The locals continued improvement each week, especially on the defensive side of the football, has produced a perfe£t 5-0 slate to date with a last second 17-14 win over Waterford, an incredible fourth period come-from-behind 21-14 triumph at Federal Hocking and a second half touchdown to defeat Soath Gallia by a 14-7 margin being the highlight of the early season success for WHS. A pair of shutout victories over Eastern (35-0) and Harman (55-0) complete the first half of the 2007 campaign for the with ftve tough opponents awaiting their chance at Wahama during the coming weeks. The five remaining foes on the White Falco~s fall card sport an impressive 16-8 record with Clay County and Matewan leadmg the way with 4-1 records followed by Buffalo Putnam and Wirt County at 3-2 and Parkersburg Catholic with a 2-3 mark. In contrast the Ben~, Area teams first five opponents have posted a 9-15 record with Waterford at 4-1 , South Galli a 3-2, Federal Hocking 2-3 in addition to Harman (0-4) and Eastern (05) who are still searching for their ftrst wins. One of the better squads the Falcons will face during the second half of the season will be a veteran Clay County team that has opened some eyes with its early season success. Mter dropping its 2007 opener to Class AAA Nicholas County (2714) the Panthers have reeled off four consecutive wins over Braxton County (1813), Ritchie County (44-19), Sissonville (22-21) and Herbert Hoover (34-12). Second year coach Frank Klemen has seven starters returning with all but one member of his offensive line back for another season. E;ight starters are seniors with the remaining three regulars being juniors. Throughout the first ftve Clay County games this year the spotlight has shined on just three players in senior quarterback J.D. Johnson (5-10 190), senior running back Jared Kleman (6-0 170) and senior running back Jordan Adkins (5-7 150) . . These three talented seniors own 99.9 pecent of the Panthers scoring, rushing, passing and receiving yardage on the year. Kleman is the top dog · in the Clay County offensive scheme with the coaches son well on his way to a 1000 yard rushing season and possibly 2000 yards in total offense. Through the Panthers fir st half of the season Kleman has scored 82 of the 132 total points for Clay County and has ran for an impressive 677 yards in 84 carries. In addition the talented senior is also Panthers leading receiver with 18. receptions for 312 yards. Kleman isn't . the only offensive weapon for CCHS with senior Jordan Adkins rushing for 348 yards in 59 carries and senior quarterback J.D. Johnson has tossed a pair of touchdown passes while connecting on 29-of-46 aerials on the year for nearly 500 yards with only four of Johnson's tosses being picked off. Little used senior Allen Tanner (5-7 145 ) joins the big play trio in the Panther backfield. . Most of the credit for the high powered Clay County offense lies within tt!1 interior line which consists of seniors Donnie Sizemore (6-1 245) and Dylan Vaughan (6-1 215) at the tackles, senior Jared Sams (5- 11 190) at· a guard, junior Lucas Smith (5- 11 190) at a guard position and junior center Caleb 'Thomas (6-1 220). The tight end is expected to be senior Mason Hamrick (62 215) with junior wide receiver Daniel Ferrebee (5II 160) rounding out the expected starti~g rotation for Clay County h1gh school. Senior Derek Veazey continues to lead the Wahama gridders statisticall y with Veazey scoring 61 points on seven touchdowns, 16 extra point kicks and a field goal. The second team all-state selection has also ran for 435 yards and has completed 10of-20 passes for 168 yards and two touchdowns. Micaiah Branch has scored 20 points while rushing for 246 yards with Josh Pauley totaling 18 points while picking up .228 yards on the ground this year. Quarterback Willi am Zuspan has connected on 16 of 35 through the air tilf 180 yards and a touc hdown with Garrett Underwood hauling in 12 receptions for 176 ~ards and two scores. Gabe oush has live catches for 99 yards and a touchdown. Defensively . for Wahama the year so far has belopged to linebacker Brent Jones with outstandihg performances in each and every outing for WHS in 2007. Jones has received ample support from Micaiah B h T d ranc , rey An erson and Gabe Roush and Kevin Klingensmith . . James Gray, Colin Pierce and Kyle Zerkle are coming off their most impressive defensive, outings of the year in the White Falcons win over Hannan last week. The Bend Area teams inte. rior line play has continued to improve with each contest with added depth playing a huge role in the Falcons overall play. Jones, Caleb Roach and Gabe Roush anchor the line with Klingensmith, Anderson, Luke Ingels, Colby Davis, . James Gray, Kasey White, Scott Roush and Kevin Laudermilt contributing immensely in the trenches for Wahama. The White Falcons have given up but one touchdown over its last three games and Cromley's team must receive a like performance on Friday. WHS owns a 4-3 edge in the brief series with the Panthers which includes a surprising 28- 13 win on the strength of two touchdown passes and 124 yards ru shing by Veazey. Wahama averages 28.2 points pe1 game offensively while giving up 6 .8 points to \he opposition.

I I I I I POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. - Although on paper Point Pleasant comes into 'Friday's contest against undefeated Wayne the underdog, when it comes to the Cardinal Conference, anything is possible. · The Big Blacks have already enjoyed a win over a previously unbeaten team when a 30-yard PPHS field goal gave Meigs ·its first loss of the season and when it comes to the Cardinal Conference, it seems almost every week someone manages to pull off an upset. And although it won't be easy, Point Pleasant head coach Dave Darst feels his team is once again in a position where, if they can catch a few breaks, could pull off another big upset. "Like I said from day one we ·come in and approach .every week like a new chal:tenge. We came in Monday ·and watched film and made our corrections, we talked to them a little about Wayne and the situation Sissonville was in last year when they came in to play Wayne and we are kind of in that same situation. "We both started out a little bit rough and they beat Wayne and their season just spnngs forward. We are going to play one of the top Class AA teams in the state of West Virginia this week and we told the kids they have to step it up," Point Pleasant will need to play a nearly flawless game to pull off a victory over the defending Class AA state champion Pioneers (5-0), something the team has not been able to do as 18 turnovers have caused the Big Blacks to suffer a rough 1-3 start to the 2007 season. And that early frustration reached its peak last week when a few untimely mistakes halted the best offensive performance of.the year by the Big Blacks in a 17-13 Winfield victory that changed this week's game from a pivotal' conference clash to stmply an opportunity to get the season back on track. "When you go back and look at the film we have a big drive and fumble, in the second half we move the ball and the quarterback is hit and a fumble. It is not his fault, we had a little breakdown in the pass protection, but there weren't any breakdowns in the run game. We just stopped ourselves," Darst said. , Monday thru Friday :00 a.n1. to 5:00 p.m. Larry Crum/photo But the season is far from over. Each week Point Pleasant continues to improve on offense and the Big Blacks already solid defense continues to get better. "I thmk we are just fine. We looked at it as a coaching staff and I felt that last week was our best week offensively," Darst said. "But our defense is probably one of the best we have had here in the past three or four years. We are going to have our moments, we are going to have to slow them down and hopefully we can keep the ball out of their hands.' But Point Pleasant is not the only team with a tough defense. Warne comes into Friday ni,ght s contest statistically w1th the best defense in the conference, giving up just 35 points all season. Add in the 32 · points per game the offense is averaging and Pioneers are one tough obstacle to overcome. "They have an exceptionally tough defense, we are gomg to have to have a great offensive gameplan to move the ball on them," Darst said. Wayne comes into Friday nights contest having taken tbe outright lead in the conference with a convincing 44-6 win over Sissonville, who defea1ed Point Pleasant 40-7 during a week two contest. Wayne has ridden the back of Jason Thompson to reach this point, one of the top runners in the Cardinal Conference. He and quarterback Joey Ferguson create a deadly 1-2 ~unch on a team that can stnke at any point from anywhere. The team showed its versatility last week when its usually Jotent run offense was bel in check, forcing Ferguson to go to the air where he helped his team produce 32 pomts in the second period in the big win over Sissonville. But, according to Darst, Wayne's offense could be its bi~gest weakness against Pomt Pleasant. "The thing about Wayne is they run an offense that we used to run here at Point Pleasant so we know what they do, we are just ~oing to have to stop them, ' Darst said. "We know the offense. It is a ball deception offense and Wayne has some great athletes down there right now running it." While the Pioneers come into the ~arne with the best offense m the conference, Point Pleasant hopes it will have a chance to showcase just what it can do Friday night. After a slow start, the Big Blacks really started clicking in their win over Meigs and were very strong last week behind the running of junior Tyler Grant. Grant has broken free over the past two weeks averaging 139.~ yards per game durivg that span for a total of 344 yards and two scores on the season. Caleb Wasonga and Derek Mitchell have also rushed for over 100 yards on the season .with Mitchell and freshman Allen Wasonga adding the teams other rushing scores. B.J. Lloyd has performed well under center with 141 yards through the air on the season. Although the yards have piled up, Point Pleasant has had a few problems putting points on the board as numerous potential drives ·have ended in turnovers leading the Big Blacks to rank at the bottom of the conference in points per game at nine. In order to pull the upset, Point will need to find ways to put points on the board and eliminate mistakes while also finding a way to hold the explosive Wayne attack in check. It may sound like an impossible feat, but Point Pleasant feels that nothing is impossible with this team. "I think the support is there, everybody has to understand that we are working at it. The thing about this group of kids is that they are working hard, this coaching staff is working hard and we are just going to continue to get better and playing a team like Wayne is just goin~ to make us better, ' Darst sa1d.

I I I I I POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. - Although on paper Point Pleasant comes into 'Friday's contest against undefeated Wayne the underdog, when it comes to the Cardinal Conference, anything is possible. · The Big Blacks have already enjoyed a win over a previously unbeaten team when a 30-yard PPHS field goal gave Meigs ·its first loss of the season and when it comes to the Cardinal Conference, it seems almost every week someone manages to pull off an upset. And although it won't be easy, Point Pleasant head coach Dave Darst feels his team is once again in a position where, if they can catch a few breaks, could pull off another big upset. "Like I said from day one we ·come in and approach .every week like a new chal:tenge. We came in Monday ·and watched film and made our corrections, we talked to them a little about Wayne and the situation Sissonville was in last year when they came in to play Wayne and we are kind of in that same situation. "We both started out a little bit rough and they beat Wayne and their season just spnngs forward. We are going to play one of the top Class AA teams in the state of West Virginia this week and we told the kids they have to step it up," Point Pleasant will need to play a nearly flawless game to pull off a victory over the defending Class AA state champion Pioneers (5-0), something the team has not been able to do as 18 turnovers have caused the Big Blacks to suffer a rough 1-3 start to the 2007 season. And that early frustration reached its peak last week when a few untimely mistakes halted the best offensive performance of.the year by the Big Blacks in a 17-13 Winfield victory that changed this week's game from a pivotal' conference clash to stmply an opportunity to get the season back on track. "When you go back and look at the film we have a big drive and fumble, in the second half we move the ball and the quarterback is hit and a fumble. It is not his fault, we had a little breakdown in the pass protection, but there weren't any breakdowns in the run game. We just stopped ourselves," Darst said. , Monday thru Friday :00 a.n1. to 5:00 p.m. Larry Crum/photo But the season is far from over. Each week Point Pleasant continues to improve on offense and the Big Blacks already solid defense continues to get better. "I thmk we are just fine. We looked at it as a coaching staff and I felt that last week was our best week offensively," Darst said. "But our defense is probably one of the best we have had here in the past three or four years. We are going to have our moments, we are going to have to slow them down and hopefully we can keep the ball out of their hands.' But Point Pleasant is not the only team with a tough defense. Warne comes into Friday ni,ght s contest statistically w1th the best defense in the conference, giving up just 35 points all season. Add in the 32 · points per game the offense is averaging and Pioneers are one tough obstacle to overcome. "They have an exceptionally tough defense, we are gomg to have to have a great offensive gameplan to move the ball on them," Darst said. Wayne comes into Friday nights contest having taken tbe outright lead in the conference with a convincing 44-6 win over Sissonville, who defea1ed Point Pleasant 40-7 during a week two contest. Wayne has ridden the back of Jason Thompson to reach this point, one of the top runners in the Cardinal Conference. He and quarterback Joey Ferguson create a deadly 1-2 ~unch on a team that can stnke at any point from anywhere. The team showed its versatility last week when its usually Jotent run offense was bel in check, forcing Ferguson to go to the air where he helped his team produce 32 pomts in the second period in the big win over Sissonville. But, according to Darst, Wayne's offense could be its bi~gest weakness against Pomt Pleasant. "The thing about Wayne is they run an offense that we used to run here at Point Pleasant so we know what they do, we are just ~oing to have to stop them, ' Darst said. "We know the offense. It is a ball deception offense and Wayne has some great athletes down there right now running it." While the Pioneers come into the ~arne with the best offense m the conference, Point Pleasant hopes it will have a chance to showcase just what it can do Friday night. After a slow start, the Big Blacks really started clicking in their win over Meigs and were very strong last week behind the running of junior Tyler Grant. Grant has broken free over the past two weeks averaging 139.~ yards per game durivg that span for a total of 344 yards and two scores on the season. Caleb Wasonga and Derek Mitchell have also rushed for over 100 yards on the season .with Mitchell and freshman Allen Wasonga adding the teams other rushing scores. B.J. Lloyd has performed well under center with 141 yards through the air on the season. Although the yards have piled up, Point Pleasant has had a few problems putting points on the board as numerous potential drives ·have ended in turnovers leading the Big Blacks to rank at the bottom of the conference in points per game at nine. In order to pull the upset, Point will need to find ways to put points on the board and eliminate mistakes while also finding a way to hold the explosive Wayne attack in check. It may sound like an impossible feat, but Point Pleasant feels that nothing is impossible with this team. "I think the support is there, everybody has to understand that we are working at it. The thing about this group of kids is that they are working hard, this coaching staff is working hard and we are just going to continue to get better and playing a team like Wayne is just goin~ to make us better, ' Darst sa1d.
