NEW HAVEN — Residents in the bend area
of Mason and Meigs
Counties likely heard two
loud booms on Saturday
morning as a planned
demolition activity took
place at the former Philip

New Haven, West Virginia.

COLUMBUS, Ohio
(AP) — Health officials
across Ohio warned of a
dark winter, with limited
intensive care unit beds if
the new surge in coronavirus cases is not curbed
in the next few weeks.
Gov. Mike DeWine
appointed doctors to lead
three zones across the
state during a briefing
Monday, in an attempt to
combat the spread of the
virus and maintain hospitals’ ability to respond to
the pandemic in the coming weeks.
“The capacity issues
we face now are different
from what we experienced in the spring,” said
Dr. Bruce Vanderhoff,
chief medical officer at
OhioHealth. “What we
are seeing now is an
increasing demand on our
staff.”
Vanderhoff said the
state has adequate
personal protection
equipment and testing
capabilities, but warns
that medical professionals
are starting to become
inundated with the number of hospitalized virus
patients and soon will be
unable to care for acutely
ill, non-virus patients.
The three doctors
representing the state’s
largest hospital systems,
including Ohio State
Wexner Medical Center
and Cleveland Clinic,
were optimistic about
Monday’s news of a
Pfizer vaccine with a 90%
effective rate.

Today is Tuesday, Nov. 10, the 315th day of
2020. There are 51 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History
On Nov. 10, 1775, the U.S. Marines were organized under authority of the Continental Congress.
On this date
In 1766, Rutgers, the State University of New
Jersey, had its beginnings as William Franklin, the
Royal Governor of New Jersey, signed a charter
establishing Queen’s College in New Brunswick.
In 1919, the American Legion opened its ﬁrst
national convention in Minneapolis.
In 1928, Hirohito was enthroned as Emperor of
Japan.
In 1938, Kate Smith ﬁrst sang Irving Berlin’s
“God Bless America” on her CBS radio program.
In 1944, during World War II, the ammunition
ship USS Mount Hood (AE-11) exploded while
moored at the Manus Naval Base in the Admiralty
Islands in the South Paciﬁc, leaving 45 conﬁrmed
dead and 327 missing and presumed dead.
In 1951, customer-dialed long-distance telephone service began as Mayor M. Leslie Denning
of Englewood, New Jersey, called Alameda, California, Mayor Frank Osborne without operator
assistance.
In 1975, the U.N. General Assembly approved
a resolution equating Zionism with racism (the
world body repealed the resolution in Dec. 1991).
The ore-hauling ship SS Edmund Fitzgerald mysteriously sank during a storm in Lake Superior
with the loss of all 29 crew members.
In 1982, the newly ﬁnished Vietnam Veterans
Memorial was opened to its ﬁrst visitors in Washington, D.C., three days before its dedication.
Soviet leader Leonid I. Brezhnev died at age 75.
In 1997, a judge in Cambridge, Massachusetts,
reduced Louise Woodward’s murder conviction to
involuntary manslaughter and sentenced the English au pair to the 279 days she’d already served in
the death of 8-month-old Matthew Eappen.
In 2009, John Allen Muhammad, mastermind
of the 2002 sniper attacks that killed 10 in the
Washington, D.C. region, was executed. President
Barack Obama visited Fort Hood, Texas, where
he somberly saluted the 13 Americans killed in
a shooting rampage, and pledged that the killer
would be “met with justice — in this world, and
the next.”
In 2017, facing allegations of sexual misconduct,
comedian Louis C.K. said the harassment claims
by ﬁve women that were detailed in a New York
Times report “are true,” and he expressed remorse
for using his inﬂuence “irresponsibly.”
In 2018, President Donald Trump, in France to
commemorate the 100th anniversary of the end of
World War I, canceled a visit to a cemetery east of
Paris where Americans killed in that war are buried;
rainy weather had grounded the presidential helicopter. Authorities in Northern California said 14 additional bodies had been found in the ruins from a ﬁre

Ten years ago: President Barack Obama cut
short his visit to his boyhood home in Indonesia
because of an ash cloud from Mount Merapi, and
ﬂew to South Korea for an economic summit.
French President Nicolas Sarkozy’s reform raising the retirement age from 60 to 62 became law,

three Country Music Association Awards on her
27th birthday, including album of the year; Brad
Paisley was named entertainer of the year. Movie
producer Dino De Laurentiis, 91, died in Beverly
Hills, California.
Five years ago: Jeb Bush and Ben Carson sought

GALLIA, MEIGS BRIEF

Veterans Day event changes
GALLIPOLIS — Due to the uncertainty surrounding the coronavirus pandemic, the Gallia
County Veterans Service Commission has made
the decision to cancel this year’s Veteran’s Day
Parade and Program. Since many of the participants are in a very high-risk category and the
virus remaining transmittable, it makes cancelling
the event the safest decision. Although there will
not be a parade or program this year, veterans day
is a special day to remember all of those veterans
who made the sacriﬁce and paid the price for our
freedom.
GALLIPOLIS — The members of Gallia County
Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter #709 are
participating in a caravan of automobiles in Gallipolis on Veterans Day. The group will assemble at
the Bossard Library at 10:30 a.m. on Wednesday,
Nov. 11. Members will not be exiting their vehicles. They will tour Second Avenue to Gallipolis
City Park and make two laps around the park. Following the city park the caravan will exit via upper
Eastern Avenue to the U.S. 35 bypass.

“There have also been several
conﬁrmed exposures to others in the building as well. We
have been in contact with our
local Health Department and
decided to close the building to

wrote Meyers.
Gallipolis City School District reported in a Facebook
post on Monday that “a student
at Gallia Academy High School
and a student at Green Elementary School have tested positive for COVID-19.”
In the statement, Supt. Craig
Wright wrote, “Those students
have not been on district property since testing positive.”
The schools remain open and
students should report unless
notiﬁed otherwise.
Wahama High School also
announced a conﬁrmed case

Jack Cullen. The school dismissed early on Monday as
contact tracing took place.

ment of Health and Human
Resources (DHHR) reported a
positive case of a staff member
at PVH Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Point Pleasant,
something that the facility has
clariﬁed.
Amber Findley, Director,
said there are no positive cases
among staff or residents.
“We do not have any positive
cases with our staff or our residents,” Findley said. “It’s kind
of misleading. We did have an
employee from home ofﬁce,
she came in last week and was
in the building a couple hours
working with my director of
nursing, and she called back
the next day saying she was not
feeling well and got tested and
she was positive. Because she
was in the building, she’s not
an employee here, but she was
in the building, we have to treat
it as an outbreak.”
Findley said all staff and residents will be tested on Monday
for the next three weeks, beginning this week. The facility has
to have all negative results for
the three weeks to go off the
“outbreak” status, according to
Findley.

Pikeville men
pull away from
RedStorm
By Randy Payton
For Ohio Valley Publishing

PIKEVILLE, Ky. — The University of Pikeville
used a late ﬁrst half run to take a lead it would
never relinquish and continued to pull away in the
second half for a 97-75 win over the University
of Rio Grande, Friday night, in non-conference
men’s basketball action at the East Kentucky Expo
Center.
The game served as the season opener for both
schools and the loss spoiled the debut of Ryan
Arrowood as the head coach of the RedStorm.
Rio Grande hung tough throughout the ﬁrst
half, scoring the ﬁrst ﬁve points of the contest and
maintaining a 37-34 lead after a pair of free throws
by freshman Caleb Wallis (Jackson, OH) with 4:10
remaining before intermission.
But the host Bears responded with an 11-0 run
to take a 45-37 advantage in the closing seconds of
the half and never trailed again.
Rio twice closed the gap to ﬁve points, the last
of which came at 58-53 on the heels of a threepointer by freshman Andrew Shull (Milton, WV)
with 13:52 to play in the contest, but a 13-4
UPike run over the next four minutes produced a
14-point lead for the home team and, essentially,
ended any hope the RedStorm had of pulling an
upset of the perennial national power.
The Bears led by no less than 12 points the rest
of the way and extended the cushion to its largest
point of the night - 25 points - inside the game’s
ﬁnal minute.
Pikeville shot 58 percent from the ﬂoor in the
second half and 57.4 percent for the game (35-for61), including a 7-for-9 showing from three-point
range after halftime.
Jordan Perry led ﬁve double-digit scorers for
UPike with a game-high 34 points - 24 of which
came in the opening half.
Jamir Simpson and Malcolm Green added 12
points each for the Bears, while Christian Sweazie
and Korbin Spencer ﬁnished with 11 and 10
points, respectively, in the winning effort.
Simpson also had eight rebounds and Spencer
added four assists and two steals for Pikeville.
Shull ﬁnished with 24 points in his collegiate
debut to lead Rio Grande, connecting on six of the
RedStorm’s 10 three-point goals.
Sophomore Shiloah Blevins (South Webster,
OH) added 17 points in a losing cause, while Wallis and junior Kam Harris (Amelia, VA) had 10
points apiece.
Freshman Redeetris Richardson (Atlanta, GA)
led Rio with ﬁve rebounds and two steals, while
Wallis had three assists.
The RedStorm shot 45.6 percent for the game
(26-for-57), including 54.4 percent (12-for-22) in
the second half.
Rio Grande is scheduled to return to action next
Tuesday, traveling to Mount Vernon Nazarene
University.
Randy Payton is the Sports Information Director at the University of

Point Pleasant falls to Irish in shootout
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com

BECKLEY, W.Va. —
Going all that way, and
ﬁnishing as close as it
gets.
Playing in the state
tournament for the ﬁrst
time since 1993, the
third-seeded Point Pleasant boys soccer team was
tied with second-seeded
Charleston Catholic at
halftime, at the end of
regulation, and at the end
of both overtime sessions
on Friday night at the
Carter Family Foundation
Field in Raleigh County.
The Irish, however,
claimed a 4-2 edge in penalty kicks, securing their
spot in Saturday’s Class
AA-A championship
match.
The Black Knights (145-4) — which had won
eight straight decisions
headed into the state
semiﬁnal — got on the
board ﬁrst, with a longrange shot from Braxton
Watkins-Lovejoy deﬂecting off the Charleston
Catholic (9-1) goal keeper
before bouncing into the
net 11:57 into play.
Point Pleasant’s string
of four consecutive shut
outs came to an end with
10:11 left in the ﬁrst half,
as an Aidan Paul free kick
from near midﬁeld found
the back right corner
of the goal and tied the
match at one.
Charleston Catholic
earned a 8-to-4 edge in
shots in the ﬁrst half,
and followed it up with
an 11-to-3 advantage in
shots in the second half.
The Black Knights
were limited to 10 players for the ﬁnal 9:30 of

into the attack zone, in front of Charleston Catholic senior Aidan
Paul (14), during the Class AA-A semifinal on Friday in Beckley,
W.Va.

regulation, and all of overtime. Charleston Catholic was responsible for
both of shots in the ﬁrst
10-minute overtime session, but came up empty
on both. Both teams
ﬁred twice in the second
overtime, but the match
remained tied at one, and
was to be decided on penalty kicks.
The Irish went ﬁrst,
with and Kelen Swan
made the shot. WatkinsLovejoy led off with
a goal for the Black
Knights, tying the tally
at one.
Each keeper stopped
the respective second
penalty kicks, but Paul
made Charleston Catholic’s next kick for a 2-1
lead. After another stop
by the Irish, Wil Swan
made it 3-1 CCHS. Ian
Wood kept Point Pleas-

ant alive, making his kick
to trim the tally to 3-2.
However, Zion Suddeth
made the next attempt,
clinching the victory for
Charleston Catholic.
Each team had three
corner kicks in the match.
PPHS senior Luke Pinkerton picked up 11 saves in
goal, while John Patnoe
stopped three shots for
the Irish.
Following the match,
ﬁfth-year Point Pleasant
head coach Chip Wood
commended his team’s
defense, and noted the
added pressure once the
Black Knights were limited to 10 players.
“Our keeper and our
four in front, our fourdiamond, they absolutely
played outstanding,”
Coach Wood said. “They
played 100 minutes of
soccer, and didn’t allow

a goal in the run of play.
(Charleston Catholic) got
the free kick, that’s how
they scored.
“We were under a lot of
pressure when we went
down to 10 men, and we
had to change things up a
little bit, we weren’t able
to play the kind of game
we wanted to. They kept
pressing us back, and so
we started just relieving
the pressure, playing a
little direct, playing a little boom-ball, and getting
the ball out into space.”
Watkins-Lovejoy — a
senior who also scored
Point Pleasant’s only goal
in the regional ﬁnal —
talked about the feeling of
giving his team the lead
in the state semiﬁnal, and
the ultimate heart-break
that followed.
“That ﬁrst goal was
just amazing, knowing
we’re up, trying to hold
them down and get the
win 1-0,” Watkins-Lovejoy
said. “It’s just emotional,
my last year to lose on
PKs, I’m just sad to lose
and leave.”
Pinkerton — a senior
whose 11 saves mark his
career-high — admitted
that his soccer career was
uncertain at times, but
playing was undoubtedly
the right decision.
“I’ve had the best time
of my life playing with

Wahama fends off Warriors, 28-21
streak of the 2020 campaign.
It was the ﬁrst-ever
matchup between the
two programs, as well as
Wahama’s ﬁrst seasonending win since the
2017 season — which
also served as the last
time that WHS ended its
home schedule victoriously.
Wahama, however,
completes the year
ranked 25th overall in
the Class A playoff ratings. Unless nine of the
16 playoff qualiﬁers in
Class A are deemed
ineligible due to county
color coding because of
COVID-19 on Sunday,
the White Falcons will
miss the playoffs for a
sixth straight postseason.
After starting the
year with three straight
losses, Wahama reeled
off wins in six of its
ﬁnal seven outings. The
White Falcons dropped
three of their four decisions to playoff qualiﬁers, but also made the
most of a makeshift
schedule by winning six
times against opponents
that went a combined
6-39 this fall.
After winning only ﬁve
games the past two seasons, third-year Wahama
football head coach
James Toth was pleased
with the overall turnaround that the program
experienced this fall.
As he noted, it’s a very
positive step forward in
trying to restore a sleeping giant to the postseason trail.
“The players, the
coaches and the people
in this community have
worked so hard this year.
It’s really been a group

effort,” Toth said. “To
win six out of our last
seven shows that we
never quit after starting the year 0-3, and
it shows that the kids
believe in what we are
doing.
“We’re going to miss
these seniors. This is my
third year and I wish I
had had them for four
years, but they have
helped re-establish a
brotherhood in that locker room. They’ve helped
us take a step towards
getting Wahama football
back to where it used to
be.”
The White Falcons
took the opening kickoff
and covered 68 yards in
nine plays, with Sawyer
VanMatre converting a
1-yard touchdown run
with 9:03 remaining in
the ﬁrst quarter for a 6-0
edge.

Coach Cottrill also
talked about getting back
to state after losing about
half of the 2019 rotation
to graduation.
“It’s taken a lot of hard
work,” said Cottrill. “We
lost four starting varsity
players, but we also have
ﬁve returning varsity
players. I knew we had
what it takes, it was just
getting them to mesh.
Your setter is your quarterback, that’s who controls everything on the
court for you, and when
you ask somebody who’s
never done it to step up
and play that role, it’s
going to take a season,
it’s not going to come
easy. (Baylie Rickard) has
done the best of her ability, and I can’t complain
at all, it’s just taken some
time to get use to a new
setter, and for them to
mesh together.”
The Lady Knights will
play an opponent to be
determined in the Class
AA quarterﬁnals at the
Charleston Coliseum on
Friday.

MASON, W.Va. — Ending things on a positive
note.
The Wahama football
team posted its ﬁrst winning season since the
2014 campaign following
a hard-fought 28-21 victory over visiting Trinity
Christian on Friday night
in the regular season
ﬁnale at Bachtel Stadium
in Mason County.
The White Falcons
(6-4) eventually celebrated their ﬁnal home
game in style, although
the Warriors (3-3) made
things quite interesting
over the full 48 minutes
of regulation.
Trinity Christian led
for almost ﬁve minutes
in the opening canto and
never trailed by more
than two possessions
by night’s end, but the
guests were within a
single yard of possibly
spoiling the season ﬁnale
with 1:37 left in the
fourth.
After closing the gap
down to 28-21, the Warriors successfully recovered their ensuing onside
kick attempt — albeit
with a small problem.
The kick was recovered
after advancing nine
yards off of the tee,
instead of the necessary
10 yards that would have
made the ball live and
the TCHS recovery legal.
Instead, WHS took
over possession at the
Warrior 49-yard line. The
Red and White ran three
plays that ultimately
allowed the ﬁnal 97 seconds of regulation to run
off the clock — giving
the White Falcons their
second 3-game winning

being goalie, and I had
the best time ever.”
Captain of the Black
Knights, senior Adam
Veroski, reﬂected on his
journey with the Black
Knights, from being
unsure what role he’d ﬁll
on the team as a freshman, to leading PPHS
back to the state tournament after a 27-year
absence.
“I came in here fresh-

man year, I didn’t even
know if I was going to
get on the ﬁeld the ﬁrst
day, I was just preparing
to be a part of the team,”
Veroski said. “You know,
its been a helluva career.
I’m so proud to be a part
of this team, everybody
on this team growing as a
person, becoming a man.
I’m proud to be their captain, and I’m proud to be
from Point Pleasant.”
While the ﬁnal result
wasn’t what was hoped
for, Coach Wood praised
the Black Knights for
leaving it all on the

ﬁeld, as well as growing
throughout the campaign.
“Our guys absolutely
played their hearts out,”
Coach Wood said. “I’m
really super proud of
all the guys, they did
wonderful. I couldn’t be
happier with the progress
and the things that we
did this year, we had a
great season.”

answered with a score
two minutes later as Levi
Teets hauled in a 29-yard
pass from Andrew Boczek. Kyle Knight added
the ﬁrst of three successful point-after try kicks
with 7:02 left for a 7-6
lead.
Both teams traded
punts on their ensuing
drives, but Wahama
took the lead for good
with 2:07 left in the ﬁrst
as VanMatre rumbled
50 yards — capping a
5-play, 65-yard drive.
Kase Stewart hauled in a
2-point conversion pass
from VanMatre for a 14-7
advantage through one
period of play.
WHS extended its lead
out to 22-7 with 2:08
remaining in the half
as Aaron Henry scored
on a 9-yard run, capping a 13-play, 94-yard
drive. Stewart added the
2-point conversion run

for a 15-point lead at
halftime, Wahama’s largest of the night.
After missing a 28-yard
ﬁeld goal attempt on
its opening drive of
the second half, Trinity
Christian put together
a 9-play, 60-yard scoring drive that ended
with Teets hauling in a
30-yard pass from Boczek for a 22-14 contest
with 4:52 left in the
third.
The White Falcons,
however, countered with
a 10-play, 37-yard scoring
drive that doubled the
lead back out to 28-14.
VanMatre covered 10
yards on a fourth down
run with 2:15 remaining
in the third.
The Warriors recovered a fumble with 3:47
left in regulation and
took over possession
at their own 19, then
marched 81 yards in six

plays to close the deﬁcit
down to a single score.
Calvin Blunt hauled in a
28-yard pass from Boczek with 1:37 remaining
for a 28-21 contest.
The White Falcons
claimed a 27-13 advantage in ﬁrst downs and
also outgained the guests
by a 434-329 overall
margin in total yards,
including a sizable 42919 advantage in rushing
yards.
Wahama — which
committed the only turnover of the game — was
penalized 11 times for
103 yards, compared to
seven ﬂags against the
guests for 48 yards.
VanMatre led the
Wahama rushing attack
with 139 yards on 19
attempts, followed by
Stewart with 121 yards
on 18 carries. Brennan
Grate also had 93 yards
on 18 totes. VanMatre
completed 1-of-5 passes
for ﬁve yards, with the
catch going to Henry.
Blunt led the Warrior
ground attack with 17
yards on seven carries.
Boczek completed 20-of34 passes for 310 yards
and three scores. Teets
led the wideouts with
ﬁve catches for 126 yards
and two scores.
It was the ﬁnal football
game for Brennan Grate,
Isaac Roush, Drew Fowler, Owen Richardson,
Gavin Stiltner, Joshua
Frye, Braden Shell, Austin Brooks, Chase Stewart, Jay Sayre and Jakob
Saxon in the Red and
White.
