Board OKs $186M temporary budget Local Tea Party members offer suggestions they say would cut $20 million more By CHRIS BOURNEA ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The Westerville Board of Education voted unanimously June 27 to approve a $186-million temporary budget for fiscal year 2012. Interim treasurer Steve Huzicko said the reason for the temporary status is un-
certainty about revenue projections and the state’s biennial budget. “We’re still looking at revenues from property taxes, due to reappraisals, and the state budget,” he said. Superintendent Dan Good said the district continues to look for ways to save money and announced that he will make contractual concessions to reduce his total
compensation in fiscal year 2012 by approximately $20,000. A portion of Good’s concessions will result from foregoing a contractual increase to his $189,000 base salary and contributing more toward health-insurance premiums. The other portion of his concessions will come from the amount of his total compensation package that is
paid into an annuity. “My own choice isn’t made with the expectation that others follow suit,” Good said in a statement. “It is, however, what I and my family feel is sensitive to a fragile but incrementally improving economic climate.” Despite Good’s concessions and the district’s other cost-saving measures, in-
cluding a reduction in staff of eight positions that is expected to save $650,000, numerous residents spoke out and urged the board to cut spending even more. Representatives of the Westerville Tea Party presented board members with a proposed spending-reduction plan that See SCHOOL BOARD, page A2

Westerville Square
St. Ann’s gets OK for final phase
Public hearing, Walmart vote to come July 5
By JENNIFER NESBITT
Proposed renovations to the Westerville Square shopping center at the corner of South State Street and Schrock Road will be up for a public hearing and a final decision from Westerville City Council on July 5. Council heard the second reading of legislation at its June 21 meeting to allow for a modification of the development’s site plan. If approved, shopping center owner The Hadler Cos. would be able to move forward with plans to tear down three storefronts in the center to construct a 108,000-squarefoot Walmart and to renovate the rest of the center to match the new construction with brick facade, brick columns, dormer windows and parapets. The company also plans to upgrade the parking lot with more landscaping, greenspace with public art and seating on South State Street, and brick walls along South State Street and Otterbein Avenue. At the first reading of the legislation June 7, council members expressed concerns over the effect the renovated center would have on traffic, particularly at the intersection of South State Street and Schrock Road.

Mount Carmel St. Ann’s Hospital received approval from the Westerville Planning Commission June 22 to move forward with plans for a reconstructed main entrance and for a four-story tower. The permission is contingent, however, on gaining the planning commission’s approval of a new master plan within the next five months. The June 22 approval was the third issued by the planning commission for the St. Ann’s expansion, which also will include a reconfigured parking lot, a three-tier parking deck and expansions to the hospital’s energy plant and food-service facility. The new entry to the hospital will be relocated to the campus’s south side. While cars will still come in off of Cleveland Avenue, the entrance will face Schrock Road. The 12,372-square-foot entrance will be two stories high and will feature natural stone columns and a glass façade. “The stone is something different than we’ve seen before in the hospital material,” Westerville senior planner Bassem Bitar said. “It’s a nice, rich, natural material and stands out from the brick. It should be very easy once you’re on campus to realize where the entry is.” David Dryden, Mount Carmel vice president of design, con-

Civil War activities part of July 4 festivities By JENNIFER NESBITT ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The Fourth of July in Westerville will include the annual Rotary run, parade and fireworks, but this year, the city will add educational events about the Civil War to the lineup. The Ohio Historical Society’s vintage baseball team, the Ohio Vil-
lage Muffins, will play a game against a local team, following Civil War-era rules, at 4 p.m. July 2 at the Westerville Sports Complex, 325 N. Cleveland Ave. The Westerville Visitors and Convention Bureau will host History Exhumed! from 1 to 5:30 p.m. July 3 at Heritage Park. The event, part of the city’s commemoration of the
DIRECTORY
150th anniversary of the start of the Civil War, will include live entertainment, concessions, old-fashioned games for kids and information on Civil War history. The Eagle River Trio will perform songs from the Civil War era on the porch of Everal Barn. Children can participate in candle-making and games of skill that were
played by children in the 1860s. There also will be displays and presentations about Westerville’s role in the Underground Railroad and on how Westerville’s Hanby family spent the war years. Civil War re-enactors will show ladies’clothing and talk about how
After a three-year process, the Otterbein University Security Department will complete its transition to the Otterbein Police Department on Friday, July 1. The purpose of the transition is “to improve safety services for the campus community,” Otterbein Police Chief Larry Banaszak said. “Right now, we’re a security department, so we don’t have any authority to operate with police powers. We can’t investigate crime. We can’t stop crimes in progress,” Banaszak said. “We’re going to have all the traditional law enforcement responsibilities on campus that any other police department would have.” The university’s 10 full-time security officers received training and certification through the Ohio Peace Officer Training Commission and were commissioned as police officers in February 2009. “We wanted to give our officers all the tools they need to protect our campus,” Bob Gatti, vice president and dean for Otterbein Student Affairs, said of the transition. Although sworn in more than two years ago, the officers have not been acting as a police department but instead have

Continued from page A1 They also questioned the 24hour operation of the Walmart and requested further information from the city staff on other 24-hour retail operations in Westerville. Council did not discuss the proposal during the June 21 meeting, but several residents spoke about the case during the meeting’s public-comment session. Richard Schulz said he viewed the plans for the redevelopment at a recent open house held by The Hadler Cos., and he believes the redevelopment will improve the area. The current center, he said, is run down and doesn’t represent Westerville well. “It looks seedy,” Schulz said. “This is not the Westerville that I thought I came to.” He said he believes the rede-
velopment would change that. “By and large, I think we will maintain the kind of community that we came to,” Schulz said. He added that the redevelopment would increase the city’s tax base and bring more jobs. Becky Cheney, who lives near Westerville Square, said she has shared her concerns about the redevelopment with council, and she said she continues to worry about traffic, the 24-hour operation and the upkeep of the center. She said she has found that many of her neighbors share her concerns. Resident Carol Peterson said she stood outside of the Westerville Public Library on a recent Saturday and collected 81 signatures on a petition from people who do not want a Walmart in Westerville. Those signing the petition
wrote comments against having a big-box store in the city and saying that a Walmart would attract undesireable people to Westerville and that the corporation is “evil,” Peterson told council. “Just on one day, this many people are not happy with the Walmart,” Peterson said. City law director Bruce Bailey emphasized that council’s decision will depend on The Hadler Cos. ability to present a plan that fits within the city’s zoning regulations. The city must apply laws equally to all applicants and cannot make rulings based on which company is filing an application, Bailey said. “What the city deals with is use and not user,” he said. “This is not about Walmart; it’s about the development.” jnesbitt@thisweeknews.com

POLICE Continued from page A1 been focusing on the administrative and legal requirements to successfully complete the conversion. The Otterbein Police Department will have full police authority on campus-owned or -controlled property. “In addition to that, we have a mutual agreement with the city of Westerville that allows for us to have jurisdiction on the streets and sidewalks, and public areas in the campus area,” Banaszak said. Westerville City Manager David Collinsworth said city officials have worked closely with university representatives to help ensure a smooth transition. “The city has been working collaboratively with Otterbein University for the past two years on their planned transition from a security operation to a full-blown, sworn police agency,” Collinsworth said. “This includes entering into agreements with the university for mutual aid and emergency communications/dispatching services which the city will be providing. It is the city’s goal to help ensure a successful security transition for OU for the benefit of the entire campus and Westerville community.” “We look at it as a force multiplier for us,” Westerville Police Chief Joe Morbitzer said. “We’ve always worked very well with Otterbein.” He said that since the two departments have been training together, the Westerville community can expect to see the same level of service as there has always been. “I really like the aspect of us training side by side,” he said. “That keeps us on the same page, and that’s extremely important when you’re working so close together.” The Otterbein Police Department will continue its responsibilities as a security department after the conversion. “Everything we do now as a security department we’ll also do as a police department,” Banaszak said. “It’s just that we’ll have the additional lawenforcement responsibilities.” bbyers@thisweeknews.com

The new bed tower will be constructed on the hospital’s east side, between the existing women’s pavilion and the medical offices that front Cooper Road. The 111,230-square-foot tower will house an emergency-room chest pain unit, catheterization labs and 60 beds for cardiovascular patients. The tower will be constructed of red brick to match the rest of the hospital, with stone columns to match the stone being used at the main entrance. The expansion plan was unanimously approved with three conditions set by the city planning staff: The final access-point alignments and design details are subject to review and approval by the city engineer; the landscape plan must be finalized to the liking of the city staff; and details on the
replacement of trees along the planned bike path must be included in the details of the hospital’s master plan. The same three conditions were attached to the previous approvals granted by the planning commission. Commission members also added a stipulation that hospital officials must present a master plan and have it approved by the commission by the end of November. The master plan would include details on greenspace, traffic patterns, landscaping and more, which the planning commission did not hash out during the approval of the expansion, under promises that a master plan would be coming. Bitar said Mount Carmel St. Ann’s expects to submit the master plan to the city staff in August for inclusion on the September planning commission agenda. “This is very important to me that we have a master plan. I kind of feel like we are doing this backward,” commission member Diane Fosselman said. If the hospital does not have a master plan approved in time, Bitar said the city could withhold the building permits needed to move forward with construction.

Documentarian Burns to visit Westerville By JENNIFER NESBITT ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Famed documentarian Ken Burns will come to Westerville Sept. 22 before the debut of his new documentary, “Prohibition,” on PBS in October. The visit was announced at Westerville City Council’s June 21 meeting. Members of Burns’research team have been working with the Westerville Public Library’s Local History Center on fact-checking information for the documentary and viewing items from the archives over the past few years, city law director Bruce Bailey said. Some footage also was shot in the city, he said. Upon hearing about Westerville’s inclusion in the documentary, Bailey said he decided to contact Burns’ agent to see if the filmmaker would be willing to visit the city as he promotes the new documentary. “The question is: Why would he come here?” Bailey said. “Well, the reason is: We asked.” He said it’s fitting that Burns would pay tribute to the town in which the Temperance Movement was launched. “He wouldn’t have a show without us. We are the home of the Anti-Saloon League,” Bailey said. “This all began in our town 102 years ago.”
The Anti-Saloon League chose to locate in Westerville, he said, because the city’s Board of Trade offered $9,000 — equivalent to $232,000 today — to the group to purchase a site for its headquarters. Westerville’s reputation as a pro-Temperance town also encouraged the group to locate here, he said. While in central Ohio, Burns will attend a luncheon at the Westerville Public Library and teach a master class at Otterbein University before going to WOSU for an appearance on a local news show. Local history coordinator Beth Weinhardt said the library will announce details at a later date about a public lottery for tickets to the luncheon. Bailey also is using Westerville’s role in the “Prohibition” documentary and Burns’ visit to launch an effort to raise enough funds to construct a public sculpture in Westerville, marking the city’s role in the Temperance movement and the impact it had on the city. Bailey has worked with local sculptor Michael Tizzano to create a model for a sculpture that would be placed in Bicentennial Park, just north of Westerville City Hall. The city has budgeted $200,000 to renovate that park in 2014. For the sculpture, Prohibition-era photos depicting the destruction of alcohol were viewed for inspiration. A photograph in which New York’s police commission watches while

two men dump a barrel of alcohol down the sewer was selected. The scene was re-enacted in front of Westerville City Hall, and photographs were taken that will be used to create a model for the sculpture. Tizzano’s clay model shows two men dumping out a barrel of alcohol as another man in a suit watches. A working fountain would pour water from the barrel. Depending on the amount of money raised and the space available within the park, two additional figures could be added — a little girl and a police officer watching the scene. The life-sized re-creation of the photograph would be designed in a way that would encourage people to interact with the sculpture, Tizzano told council. “There’s only one thing missing: contributions,” Bailey said. “That’s our job to do that.” He said the Westerville Parks Foundation will be taking donations for the sculpture, with the goal of raising enough money by 2014 to include the sculpture in the planned renovations of the park. The estimated cost of the sculpture, with three figures and the barrel, is $136,000. Those interested in contributing or in helping with the efforts can call Bailey at (614) 882-2327.

It’s one day of drinking juice, eating Popsicles, spooning up Jell-O and maybe sipping broth as a special dinner course. Couldn’t we all benefit from a day away from what these instructions call Solid Foods? Our entire digestive systems will thank us for it. I hear mine thanking me right now, in fact. It has a sort of growly voice, but I’m pretty sure the general tone is appreciative. And finally, the third rule, which is of course it’s terrible but it’s so adult. Remember when you were, oh, say 13 and you longed to be taken for a person much older, a person who had car keys and make up and plans for Saturday night? Well, now you’re older, and you have all those things and more: You have an appointment, which you made yourself like the big girl you are. Nobody wants to do this big inconvenient thing, of course, anymore than people want to have root canals or hip replacement surgery. They do it because the alternative is worse, because it’s the right thing to do, because they value their health more than they value the chance to eat SOLID FOODS, MILK OR MILK PRODUCT every last day of their lives. Having the test that means devoting the day before it to test prep is pretty much the most grown-up thing a person can do. It’s more adult than getting a driver’s license; more sophisticated than ordering a cocktail; more worldly wise than what’s her name, Lindsay Lohan. I’ll take it. With a chaser of magnesium citrate.

probably because lightheadedness brought on by the liquid diet has skewed my thinking. The first MARGO rule is stay off BARTLETT the Internet. It might seem like a good idea to see how nameless strangers fared during their days of procedure-prep, but trust me, you’ll end up feeling like you spent the night in a Bangkok bus station. People who wouldn’t tell their co-workers what they were doing on their days off will describe their most personal experiences in lurid detail on random message boards: Tales of dehydration, nausea and horrible overthe-counter mixtures you never heard of because those aren’t the ones your doctor has told you to use, while you read as if transfixed, your eyes round, your mouth ajar. Now, what’s the point of that? Turn off the computer. Focus on your own experience. You’re the only one you know undergoing procedure preparation today, right? Everybody else in the

As I speak, I’m following directions as given on several closely printed pages from a doctor’s office. The directions are lengthy, specific and repetitive, in the manner of instructions that have been re-written, re-worked and reorganized many times. They begin calmly and reasonably enough – “Water, clear fruit juices (apple, white grape) or broth” – then slide into capital letters and multiple exclamation points, like an exasperated mother: “NO SOLID FOODS, BEER, WINE, MILK OR MILK PRODUCT!!!” A person gets the feeling that whoever wrote these instructions has had it up to here with patients calling the office to ask, “Well, how about ice cream? Can I have that?” or just assuming that if white grape juice is OK, so is a nice Pinot Grigio or a liter or two of Chardonnay. “It’s a clear liquid, right? And really, practically a fruit juice.” As you may have guessed, I’m getting ready for one of those outpatient hospital procedures famous for being a breeze compared to the preparation of the day before. This isn’t my first such experience, so I feel like an expert,

and administration have a lack of respect for the taxpayers’ hardearned money. Since the WEA union president works to obtain salary and benefit increases for the teachers union, which effectively raises the taxes of property owners, why should those taxpayers pay any portion of his salary and benefits? This is an example of what some taxpayers would call corruption in government. This is another reason why S.B. 5 is needed in Ohio so these types of agreements are no longer negotiated in private and are not tolerated by the taxpayers. I hope the voters become informed and determined not to let the board and administration get away with agreeing to union contracts that the voters simply cannot and should not be asked to afford. At a minimum, the taxpayer dollars should at least be used to pay people who actually work for the district.

agreements, the district has committed to spend about $160,000 of taxpayer money for this person to work full-time for the union. After I spoke about this at a school board meeting in December, board member Cindy Crowe indicated the union president had a whole list of job responsibilities for the district. However, I want the taxpayers to know that the administration (Curt Jackowski, executive director of human resources and employee relations) has admitted the only list of responsibilities for WEA president Chris Williams is that of a science teacher. Since Williams has an agreement giving him no student contact, he therefore has no responsibilities within the district. This is so Williams is able to carry out his duties as president of the WEA. Jackowski mentioned to me that other districts do the same thing, as if that is supposed to justify this unnecessary expenditure. This is just a symptom of a bigger problem. It shows our board

To the editor: The taxpayers probably don’t know that, according to the Westerville Education Association’s contract with school district, their tax dollars are being used to help fund a portion of the salary and benefits for the WEA union president. This would be fine if the president gave a portion of his time to work for the district. However, this individual, by consent of our superintendent and agreed to by our school board, has been given zero student contact time, which means he works 100 percent of the time for the union. The district pays the full cost of Medicare taxes, medical insurance deductible, life insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance and workers’ compensation for this position. According to numbers verified through the district, the union reimburses the district about 60 percent of all costs. Total cost to taxpayers each year for paying the union president to work for the union is about $40,000. This means for at least the past two two-year contract

Plan change
Independent living facility to replace one for skilled nursing By JENNIFER NESBITT ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Plans for a senior housing facility at the corner of Maxtown and North Spring roads have changed. In late 2008, the Westerville Planning Commission approved a final development plan for the site that included a three-story building with a mix of independent-living, assisted-assisted living and “memory-care” units. The plan also called for a onestory skilled-nursing facility to be built as Phase II of the project. Construction has begun on the three-story facility, dubbed Parkside Village, but the developer returned to the Westerville Planning Commission June 22, asking for re-approval of the final development plan, changing the one-story skilled-nursing facility to a three-story independent-living facility. The original one-story unit would have been 47,000 square feet, and would have had 100 units and between 75 and 100 employees. The planned three-story facility will be 32,800 square feet with 62 units and one to two employees. The change was approved by a 7-0 vote. Skip Eberly of Principle Realty Group said the developer chose to repurpose the plan after the state changed reimbursements to Medicare and Medicaid, a change he said he believes makes providing skilled nursing not financially feasible. Eberly said the new development, to be dubbed Springwood Senior Living Community, would be marketed to seniors who don’t want to go to an assisted-living facility but who may eventually need to. If they hit a point where assisted-living is needed, he said, they can be moved to Parkside Village. The memory-care unit also can provide some of the same types of care that skilled
nursing would, he said. Also at the June 22 planning meeting, planning commission members approved a conditional use permit to allow a credit union with a drive-through to move into an existing building at 501 W. Schrock Road. All drive-throughs in Westerville are required to obtain conditional use permits, city planner Lisa LaMantia said. “This site has been used as a bank with drive-through in the past. We’re unaware of any problems with the drive-through,” LaMantia told the commission. Education First Credit Union plans to relocate its corporate offices to Westerville. The credit union initially will occupy 8,000 square feet of the building’s fourth floor, with plans to expand to occupy 14,000 square feet on the first floor. The planning commission also gaveits approval for a wall sign to be placed above the building’s third story. Generally, city code does not allow for such signs outside of the Westar development, and then they must be placed at the top of the buildings. However, LaMantia said, the city staff supported the sign in this case because the building is one of the few in Westerville outside of Westar that is four stories high, and the architecture of the build-
ing doesn’t allow for a wall sign to be placed at the top. “Most of the buildings outside of Westar are not this tall. This is one of the few exceptions,” LaMantia said. In 2003, the planning commission denied a request for a similar sign to Sky Bank when it occupied the building because it was using only 9,000 square feet of the 60,000-square-foot building; commission members said it did not make sense for the bank to have a wall sign when it wasn’t the primary occupant. However, planning commission members said June 22 that they were fine approving the sign for a tenant that didn’t occupy the majority of the building as long as the building’s owner acknowledged that it would be the only wall sign permitted. “I really don’t have a problem with any size tenant taking the main signage of the building, as long as the owner of the building is well aware that that’s it,” commission member Brian Szuch said. “If someone comes in and takes the remainder of the building, they don’t get signage on the outside of the building.” jnesbitt@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNEWS.com

Westerville secures EPA grant to improve wetlands Create your path to success By JENNIFER NESBITT
ThisWeek Community Newspapers
A federal grant could allow Westerville to move forward with improvements to the existing wetlands at Highlands Park. Westerville City Council voted to approve a $131,328 grant from the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency at its June 21 meeting. The grant must be met with a $43,252 match from the city, for a total project cost of $174,580. The Highlands Park master plan, which was created by the city in 2009 in preparation of the park’s overhaul, called for enhancements to the wetlands, Westerville Parks and Recreation Department director Randy Auler said. Some improvements to the wetlands were made as part of the $7.6 million worth of renovations that were just completed at the park, but city officials decided last year to hold off on other wetlands improvements when cost estimates for the
renovations came in higher than originally predicted. Council approved submitting the grant application in April 2010, Auler said. Council members applauded the parks and recreation department for its work in securing grant funding for the project. “Coming up with 75 percent of the project cost through a grant is certainly the way to go,” Councilman Eric Busch said. With the grant, the city will be required to submit project construction and water quality documentation to the Ohio EPA by June 30, 2014. The parks and recreation department will return to council when sessions resume after the summer break in September with an appropriations ordinance that will allow for the design and construction of the wetlands improvements, Auler said. jnesbitt@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNEWS.com
Sunbury Road
$2M bridge replacements slated By SARAH SOLE ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Delaware County plans to build a new $2 million Sunbury Road bridge over Big Walnut Creek. “This project is necessary due to structural deterioration of the bridge,” county engineer Chris Bauserman told ThisWeek. The $2 million construction cost will replace the bridge 200foot bridge, built in 1953 as part of the City of Columbus Hoover Reservoir Project, Bauserman said. About 1,700 vehicle per day travel the road. Construction is scheduled be-
tween spring and summer of 2013 and will last about six months. Two-way traffic will be maintained on one lane with traffic controls during construction. Traffic will be maintained on one side of the existing bridge, until the other, new, side is replaced. Then the remaining old side will be replaced. The new bridge will include a path for pedestrians and bicycles. County commissioners on June 20 approved a modification to the engineering contract with Evans, Mechwart, Hambleton & Tilton to include the project’s final engineering plans, increasing the
total contract to $288,160. To date, $126,965 has been spent under the original contract. Commissioners also approved: • The $149,877 purchase of six new vehicles for the Regional Sewer District. Purchases include a Ford Escape at $17,877; two Ford F-150 extended cabs for a total of $43,460; a Ford F-250 supercab for $30,854; a Ford F250 supercab with a snow plow for $33,554 and one Ford F-150 extended cab with safety lights for $24,132. ssole@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNEWS.com

Delaware County to join joint assistance program By SARAH SOLE ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Delaware County will join seven other counties in participating in a virtual call center project for county departments of job and family services. The first such project for the state, known as the “Collabor8 Pilot Project,” includes Delaware, Hancock, Knox, Marion, Morrow, Sandusky and Wood counties. The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services is assisting in the project’s development, implementation and operations. Delaware County Commissioners approved the county’s participation at their June 20 meeting. The phone service would offer the same services currently offered by the Delaware County Department of Job and Family Services, said director Mona Reilly, saying
the change is a way to be more efficient and meet the increasing demand in service. “We are seeing that we need to do business a little differently than we do today,” Reilly told commissioners. A presence is still needed in each county, though. “Our job in family services is not going away,” she said. The state is covering the cost of updating the counties’ phone system, so there will be no cost to the counties, Reilly said. The collaboration also is designed so that other counties could join. “We should see an improved efficiency within our department in providing services,” Reilly said at the meeting. Reilly said she anticipates the service will begin in November. Previously, the public had to apply for assistance in their county of residence. This collaboration
will change that for the counties involved, Reilly said. Residents will have a 1-800 number to call, a number that will be announced in November. The number will be answered by a representative who could be located in any of the seven counties. An individual won’t be able to choose which county to call. The program areas of cash, food and medical assistance will be the only program areas that are part of the collaboration, Reilly said. While counties determine a resident’s eligibility for assistance, the benefits are issued by the state rather than at the county level. For verification purposes, if certain documents are required, applicants would deliver them to their county of residence. The collaboration would also allow all the counties to view applicant information on a closed server.

Juvenile eagles look very different from adult eagles. The eagle’s first feathers are all brown, including their head and tail; like this picture of Cheyenne who lives at the Zoo too. They also have a dark beak that turns yellow as they mature. These changes take place during the first five years of their life.

Have You Heard?
RELAX.
by Greg VanHorssen
GET
COOL! While there was once a time when self-conscious hearing instrument users concealed their devices carefully behind locks of hair and hid them in their bedroom bureau drawers, those days are over! Today, young hearing instrument users are looking for new ways to personalize the look of their instruments, much in the way that they brandish their cherry-red cell phones or wear designer eyeglass frames. The fact is that it is no longer unusual to see a person wearing a wireless listening device in his or her ear; in fact, it is downright fashionable! So, young people make the most of what they have by personalizing their hearing instruments. As they say, if you‘ve got it, flaunt it! At ABSOLUTE HEARING SOLUTIONS we strongly encourage anyone who is concerned about their hearing to seek professional advice and have a comprehensive hearing exam. Let us test your hearing with our state-of-the-art computerized prescription analyzer! We are the only digital hearing aid specialist in Central Ohio using this amazing state-of-the-art system. If you or a family member are not hearing as well as you could, please call us today at 614-654-4309 to schedule a complementary hearing & speech evaluation.

We are located at 1000 Morrison Road Suite H, Gahanna. Come see why patients are willing to make the drive to invest in their hearing. We look forward to hearing from you.

Ohio Historical Society planning eventful July By GARY SEMAN JR. ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The Ohio Historical Society is planning a July like no other. Kicking things off July 1, the historical society will unveil four new exhibits that underscore the organization’s new motto: “Let’s Explore Ohio.” It’s all in an effort to attract a wider audience to the historical society, which is celebrating its 126th anniversary this year, said Jane Mason, director of marketing and communications for the organization. Coming off a four-month renovation, the historical society has reconfigured the building’s entrance, which is now located off the first-level parking lot, Mason said. Part of the project included the removal of walls and brightening up the exterior, she said. The exhibit floor is right off the lobby. “We have put together this fantastic program in order to truly engage of the people of Ohio, to welcome them into this new space,” Mason said. “And having these
things all at once will make it a spectacular experience.” The new exhibits are: • “The American Soldier: A Photographic Tribute, from the Civil War to Iraq” (part of a traveling exhibit, on display through Dec. 30). • “Over Here, Over There: Ohioans in Times of War.” • “Follow the Flag.” • “Connecting to Your History.” Part of the historical society’s greater mission is to install more interactive, bolder displays and put people in touch with historical objects, Mason said. “I think that like in any industry, there’s innovation on how you communicate,” she said. “And our prior exhibits were fantastic for the era and thinking at the time. Now the thinking is to embrace and honor and acknowledge the visitor. It makes the history more relevant.” The other big item on the agenda is the Glorious Fourth celebration, to be held from noon to 5 p.m. Monday, July 4. Ohio Village, the model 19thcentury settlement adjacent to the
food & wine expand your tastes
main property, will host such activities as the “Grand Procession,” a parade in which spectators are encouraged to join, as well as a concert by the Ohio Village Singers, a community dance and a pie-eating contest. In addition, there will be a vintage “base ball” game by the Ohio Village Muffins. Admission to the event is $12 for adults ($10 for historical society members), $9 for children between the ages of 6 and 12 ($7 for society members) and free for children 5 and under. Admission to the Ohio History Center is free with admission. “Through the sacrifices, courage and patriotism of Americans, and especially the American military, we are able to celebrate our freedoms every Fourth of July,” said Burt Logan, executive director of the historical society. “We invite everyone to come to the Ohio Village for the Glorious Fourth to celebrate these freedoms with us and to enjoy our patriotic exhibits in the Ohio History Center.”

The Beat Arts, eats and fun in central Ohio
FAB 5
Propelled by the 2009 hit song Fire5 flies from the album Ocean Eyes, Adam Young, the braintrust of Owl City, went literally from making processed beats and loops in his parents’ basement to pop music stardom in a few short years. His music career in a whole new stratosphere, Young has returned with a new record titled All Things Bright and Beautiful, and a subsequent tour, which stops at Lifestyle Communities Pavilion on Friday, July 1. Tickets are $25/$28; call 1-800-745-3000. Young was kind enough to answer a few questions posed by The Beat.

Versus the Nothing
George Schram isn’t the only Picnic with the Pops conductor who fancies himself a comic (we kid, we kid). Wilson conducts the Saturday, July 2, Patriotic Pops concert, this year featuring a great slate of pieces by American composers and a guest appearance by local jazzman Bobby Floyd. Gerald Albright Tickets are $20 for adults and When smooth jazz ruled, $8 for children ages 3-14. For tick1 Gerald Albright was like ets or other information, call (614) the Anita Baker of the saxophone 228-8600. — there was no one and nothing Fresh and fun, charming smoother. Albright started as a busy side- 3 and comfortable, buoyant and beautiful. Washington man for acts that included The Temptations, Teena Marie, Whit- state duo He Is We (expanded to ney Houston, Phil Collins and oth- a quintet for the road) spins tuneers. When he started making his ful yarns of love and life. Rachel Taylor and Trevor Kelly own records, he often earned the unusual distinction of gaining both met while working at a Tacomacritical acclaim and popular suc- area record store and struck up a friendship based on a symbiotic cess.

Tickets are $25/$35. Call (614) 4315299.
playfulness, the kind of folks you’d like to invite over to play songs on your back porch on a summer evening. Or maybe in your basement. Or maybe The Basement, Sunday, July 3. The bill includes Ocean Grove, Andrew Allen and South Jordan. Tickets are $12. Call 1-800-7453000. Some will find Vancou-
4 ver melodic rock quintet Versus the Nothing a little too earnest. This has never been a problem for The Beat. The band’s forthcoming record, Black Gloves, is chock full of heartfelt stuff set to intense power chords and frenetic drumming — think Something Corporate meets 30 Seconds to Mars. VtN will play Bernie’s Wednesday, July 6. Fade to Oblivion opens. Call (614) 291-3448.

The Beat: Could you have imagined the success of Ocean Eyes and the kinds of experiences that success has allowed you to have and what has been the impact and your reaction to it all? Adam Young: Never! I’m an only child from a small town in Minnesota and I was loading trucks for Coca-Cola in a sweaty warehouse two years ago. The music thing started happening and really caught me off guard. I still can’t even believe what’s going on. I remember the moment my manager called me and said one of my tracks when to No. 1 in 24 countries around the world and I almost had a heart attack. It’s been a surprising roller-coaster through and throughout.

TB: Do you have favorite songs of your own and, if so, do you find they’re the ones that fans find as favorites as well? AY: I’m quite proud of a song titled The Real World because it sums up nicely my perception of reality — merely stating that sometimes I prefer the world in my own head, as imagined, over life in reality.

Weight classes adjusted for next season By FRANK DiRENNA ThisWeek Community Newspapers Some area high school wrestling coaches aren’t pleased with the new guidelines for weight classes but realize their teams will need to adapt. The National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) approved the changes during its meeting April 46 in Indianapolis. Tim Stried, director of information services for the Ohio High School Athletic Association, said the changes will
be in effect for the coming season. It is the first significant change in weight classes in 23 years. The lowest weight class, 103 pounds, is being increased to 106, which resulted in new weights in 10 of the 14 classes. The new weight classes are 106, 113, 120, 126, 132, 138, 145, 152, 160, 170, 182, 195, 220 and 285. Only 145, 152, 160 and 285 remain unchanged. The previous weight classes were 103, 112, 119, 125, 130, 135, 140, 145, 152, 160, 171, 189, 215 and 285.
“The NFHS has been studying the weight classes in wrestling for several years to determine which weight classes are most appropriate for today’s student-athletes across the country that will result in fewer classes going unfilled,” Stried said. “These new weight classes are the result of countless hours of data analysis by the NFHS, and Ohio will certainly comply with the new weight classes. Like anything, it will take some time for our member schools to be comfortable with the changes, but we can all appreciate that the NFHS is trying
to do the right thing for kids.” Westerville North coach David Grant is concerned that the increase in the lowest weight to 106 will adversely affect lighter competitors. Grant said his 103-pounder last season, Santino DiSabato, weighed between 85 and 90 pounds, but now is moving closer to 106 in preparation for next season. “I don’t like the weight class changes because it hurts the kids that are little,” Grant said. “I have Santino DiSabato, who had a hard time making 103. Now
they take it to 106, so it hurts the younger kids, the freshmen. You’re going to have a lot of kids not able to be competitive at that weight. They’re too young, too little.” Hilliard Davidson coach Dominic DiSabato, Santino’s uncle, is not in favor of the shift in weight classes. “For our program, I’m not a big fan of it,” he said. “We’ll try to get every weight class filled and then wrestle. It will hurt us in duals. Hopefully, we have See WRESTLING, page D3
Commentary
Athletes strive to excel in school Last week, the student-athletes writing in my summer series discussed the importance of balancing their time to prepare for and excel in both the classroom and in competition. This week, the seniorsto-be are focusing on the importance of having a good LARRY academic LARSON record. Austin Cuervo, St. Charles, golf: “In school, if you study and work hard, good grades will come; you can always count on that. In sports, even if you practice hard and play hard, you cannot always play well or perform well just because of the substantial amount of luck it involves. Studying has always got your back, sports do not.” Chase Delande, Hilliard Davidson, football and wrestling: “Academic success really helps in the long run, especially with colleges who love it when you can make an impact both on and off the field.” Morgan Ransom, Columbus Academy, golf: “My goal was always to play Division I golf at a school with strong academics. Coaches definitely look at your grade-point average and standardized test scores, so be prepared.” Jake Blankenship, Gahanna, pole vault: “Grades are very important because they only help you look better as an athlete and as a successful person.” Faith Washington, Reynoldsburg, track: “I always have felt as though someone with a good academic record shows a great amount of potential for strong leadership. In this world, you are either leading your own life or waiting for someone to do it for you. You don’t want that.” Michela Paradiso, Upper Arlington, soccer and basketball: “A strong academic record is important because it allows you to keep your options open for college and beyond. It is also important to remember that sports are just a segment of life and so I strive to be a well-rounded person.” Mary Wells, Westerville Central, bowling: “Colleges look at your whole schooling career, not just one year. You have much better chances being a great student than being a great athlete.” Jimmy Gammill, New Albany, football: “Great academics can open up many doors if you are seeking to play sports at the college level. Even if playing at the next level isn’t your dream, good grades and good test scores are essential for applying to colleges.” Napoleon Bell, Hartley, football and wrestling: “With a good academic record comes

Ralph Young All-Sports Award
OCC-Cardinal honor goes to Central By FRANK DiRENNA ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The Westerville Central High School athletics program used a balanced effort during the school year to win the Ralph Young AllSports Award, given annually to the school in each OCC division that performs the best across the league’s 16 common sports. The Warhawks scored 86.5 points to finish ahead of secondplace Olentangy Liberty (82) in the OCC-Cardinal. Olentangy (80), Westerville North (79), Dublin Jerome (77.5), Dublin Scioto (72), Westerville South (50.5) and Marysville (48) rounded out the division. Last year, Liberty won the award in its first year, finishing ahead of second-place Central. Central athletics director Andy Ey said a banner will be presented to the school during halftime of a home football game in the fall. “This is huge,” Ey said. “It’s very satisfying. We’re excited about it. It speaks to the improvement that our teams have made over the eight years that we’ve been open. It speaks to the depth that we have all the way across our athletic program.” Central had one first-place finish, as the boys track and field team won the OCC-Cardinal meet on May 12 and 14 at Pickerington North.

Trisha Clark returns a shot during a Division I district final. The girls volleyball team was one of five Central squads to finish second or tied for second in league play.
The Warhawks (126.5) finished ahead of Olentangy (104.5), Liberty (102), Westerville North (90), Marysville (72.25), Westerville South (66.25), Scioto (49.50) and Jerome (44). Central’s athletes took a victory lap following the win.
“We were not sure (if we had won the award), but we knew we had done everything we could to help secure the trophy,” boys track coach Justin Rush said. “As soon as I let the team know that we had won the conference, they wanted to know if we had won
ishes for the boys soccer, girls volleyball, boys golf, boys basketball and baseball teams. The boys tennis, girls tennis, boys cross country, girls cross country and softball teams were third. Eight points are awarded for a first-place finish, seven for a second, six for a third and so on. Ey said the girls bowling and girls swimming and diving teams also finished first in the OCCCardinal, but those sports are not included in the award criteria. Other all-sports award winners were Pickerington North (111) in the OCC-Ohio, Dublin Coffman (110) in the OCC-Central and New Albany (108) in the OCC-Capital. The award is named in honor of Young, the retired athletics director at Delaware and longtime OCC secretary. Young has been a track official for 38 years and manages basketball tournaments at the sectional, district and regional levels for the OHSAA. He currently serves as treasurer of the Central District. The OCC was established in 1966 with five member schools. After 45 years, the OCC has 32 member schools that compete in four divisions and sponsor 25 interscholastic sports.

Club Soccer
Two teams win pools, advance to semis By AARON BLANKENSHIP ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Only two of the nine central Ohio boys and girls soccer teams competing in the Midwest Regional Cup, held June 25-29 in Fox Cities, Wis., won their four-team pool to advance to a semifinal. Four of seven local squads reached a semifinal in 2009 and three of eight area teams made it to a semifinal last year. However, Crew Juniors Under-19 boys coach Brian Bliss said the decrease in central Ohio pool-play winners probably was because of bad luck and not a lack of talSee LARSON, page D2 ent or effort.
Tourney coverage, pgs. D4-D5 Bliss led the Crew Juniors U-19 boys to regional and national titles last year. This year’s Crew Juniors U-19 boys team, which didn’t retain any of last year’s players, went 1-0-2 to finish second in its pool. “There’s some luck involved in being able to win this tournament, and in our case, it ended up being the bad luck of getting a tough draw,” Bliss said. “This team has as much or more talent than we had last year, but we drew into a tougher group where every game was tough. If we would have drawn into a different group
we may have gone on to win this again, but we had to spend a ton of energy in the three games we played here and we didn’t even make it out of our pool. The (blind draw for pool play) is one of the biggest reasons you rarely see a club win this tournament two or three years in a row.” The one local club that did fare well this year was the Ohio Premier Eagles, which advanced two of its four representatives to semifinals. The Ohio Premier Eagles’ four girls teams combined to go 10-2 in pool play. Its U-13 squad went 3-0 to win its pool and its U-16 team advanced on a tiebreaker by beating Eclipse Select of Illinois 1-
0 on penalty kicks. In semifinals played June 28, the U-13 team played Eclipse Select and the U-16 team played KCFC Force from Kansas. The finals were held June 29. Regional champions in the U-14 through U-19 age groups advanced to the U.S. Youth Soccer Association National Championships on July 27-31 in Phoenix. The Ohio Premier Eagles’U-18 and U19 teams each went 2-1 to finish second in their pools. Ohio Premier Eagles U-13 coach Kevin Dougherty was surprised to see his squad See OVERVIEW, page D6

Area players named to All-American teams By PAUL BATTERSON ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Eight area high school lacrosse teams placed seniors on the All-American and Academic All-American boys and girls teams announced by U.S. Lacrosse. Attacker Ryan Borcherding of Dublin Coffman, attacker Leo Horine and defender John Horner of Dublin Jerome, defender Kyle Moses of Olentangy and midfielder Luke Treece and attacker Cam Williams of Upper Arlington were boys first-team All-Americans. In addition, UA midfielder Ben Grindle-deGraff, Hilliard Davidson defender Matt Arthur and Westerville
Central midfielder Jake Marburger were named Academic All-Americans. UA attacker Adriane Ghidotti was the only central Ohio girls player named first-team All-American. Wellington attacker Grace Korandovich and Thomas Worthington midfielder Lily Yednock were honorable mention selections. Horine and Horner helped Jerome finish 19-1 overall and win the Division II state title with a 13-4 win over Hunting Valley University School in the final on June 4 at Westerville Central. Moses said he tried to show no emotion after coach Mike Kinney told him he had been selected as Olentangy’s
first All-American. Moses, who has signed to play at High Point University in North Carolina, thought Kinney might be kidding. “When my coach told me I was nominated, I was excited more than anything else, but I thought I didn’t have any chance of earning the honor,” Moses said. “When (Kinney) told me later I was selected, I wanted to scream and yell, but my coach is a little bit of a jokester, so I didn’t do anything. “I knew that I had put the time and the effort in and went to a lot of summer tournaments, but I was very surprised.” Ghidotti, an honorable mention All-
Baseball
Buckeye Elite to attract more than 200 teams By FRANK DiRENNA ThisWeek Community Newspapers
About 210 teams from 15 states and Canada are scheduled to play in the eighth annual Buckeye Elite Showcase Tournament that will be held Wednesday, July 6, through July 10 in central Ohio. The tournament is divided into four divisions: Under-14, U-15, U-16 and U-18. More than 40 area high school and college fields will play host to games, said Jeff Dutiel, the chief financial officer for the tournament. The event begins with a skills showcase on July 6 at Dublin Coffman, where athletes will test their abilities in front of college coaches and pro scouts. Worthington-based Big League Baseball School will conduct the invitation-only event. “Our biggest thing is to get the kids looks for colleges,” Dutiel said. The competition also will feature a Buckeye Elite Night on July 8 at Huntington Park. Before the Columbus Clippers’ game against the Toledo Mud Hens, the teams in the tournament will parade onto the field and players will participate in on-field contests. Players also will have a chance to be honorary bat boys and throw out the first pitch. In tournament play, each division will be divided into pools:
20 four-team pools in U-18, 16 four-team pools in U-16, 14 three-team pools in U-15 and four five-team pools in U-14. In U-18, the winner of each pool will advance to gold championship single-elimination play, leading up to the gold championship game on July 10 at Huntington Park. The second-place team in each pool will compete in silver championship play, with the title game to be played at Olentangy High School on July 10. In U-16, the gold championship game will be at Huntington Park and the silver championship game will be at Dublin Coffman on July 10. In U-15, the gold and silver championship games will be at Dublin Jerome on July 10. In U-14, the gold and silver championship games will be at Don Edwards Park in Newark on July 9. Each team that does not qualify for gold or silver championship play will compete in a consolation game on July 9. The Ohio Elite baseball program is expected to field teams in the U-14, U-15 and U-18 divisions. Dublin Jerome coach Chris Huesman will guide his U-17 team in the U-18 division. “The Under-17 is the most critical time for a high school player in summer ball because that’s where all the college coaches are,” Huesman said. “All the college
Seven receive OHSAA scholarships Seven students from the Central District were selected to receive Ohio High School Athletic Association scholarships at the 19th annual OHSAA scholar-athlete banquet held June 17 in Columbus. The recipients were Robert

coaches are recruiting for their 2012 class and this is the most important time for these kids, so you want to take them to all the showcases or tournaments that will have the most exposure, and Buckeye Elite is one of those.” The Columbus Cobras baseball program will enter teams in the U-14 and U-18 divisions. Harry Huskey will coach the U18 team, which won the tournament in 2009. “The caliber of this tournament is really good,” Huskey said. “There are teams from all over the Midwest. We use this tournament to see where we’re at before we head off to the World Series.” Grove City coach Ryan Alexander said competing in summer tournaments are key to the program’s success. He led the Greyhounds to a Division I state semifinal this spring, losing to Liberty Township Lakota East 72 on June 2 at Huntington Park. Grove City will have teams in the U-16 and U-18 divisions. “This is a tournament that has some of the best teams in the state and best teams in the nation,” Alexander said. “It’s a great summer tournament. These kids end up seeing a lot of the same guys that they’ve seen already all year long playing on these summer travel teams.”
American last year, said she found out before the Golden Bears’ Division I state semifinal against Hudson on June 3 that she had made first-team AllAmerican. “Paul Caldwell (the former Coffman coach who runs the NorthStar summer league) called me and said, ‘I don’t want to put any pressure on you, but you were just named first-team All-American,’” said Ghidotti, who scored three goals in a 13-11 win over Hudson. “I was like, ‘Oh great, now there’s a ton of pressure.’ It was very exciting for me and gave me a lot of extra energy.” Ghidotti, a University of Connecticut signee, said dealing with expec-
tations in lacrosse is a way of life at UA. The girls team, which lost to Medina 14-13 in the state title game and finished 16-5 overall, has reached the state final the past four years, while the boys team had a string of 19 consecutive state final appearances snapped this season with a 10-4 loss to Worthington Kilbourne in a Central Region final on May 28. “The tradition is so rich at Upper Arlington,” Ghidotti said. “We all have to live up to this (standard of) excellence.” pbatterson@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Columbus team wins Ohio Valley Davis Cup By PAUL BATTERSON ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Tyler Stephen, who recently was named coach of the Dublin Jerome High School girls tennis team, will enter his new job this fall with a fresh perspective of the sport in central Ohio. Stephen and Worthington Kilbourne boys tennis coach Steve Metzmaier guided an 11-player team of some of the area’s top boys and girls tennis players to a firstplace finish in the Ohio Valley Davis Cup
on June 18-19 in Charleston, W.Va. “It was kind of nice to have all that talent on the same team,” said Stephen, who also is coach of the Thomas Worthington boys team. “Most of the time these kids are competing against each other in tournaments, so they all knew each other. But it was a little different situation because now they were competing with each other. Everyone got along so well.” The Columbus team went 3-0 in the tournament. It defeated Cincinnati Gold
6-4 and Dayton 9-1 on June 18 to place first in the top division, and it also defeated Cincinnati Silver 9-1 on June 19. Each match consisted of 10 courts — two boys singles matches, two girls singles matches, two boys doubles matches, two girls doubles matches and two mixed doubles matches. The boys roster featured Watterson’s Aaron Casares, Jerome’s Kent Seitz, Gahanna’s Canyon Teague and Upper Arlington’s Eric Vannatta and Nate Wallace. The girls players were Lauren
Bellinger and Sarah Stein of Jerome, Meghan Buell and Cristina DiLorenzo of New Albany, UA’s Elaine Cloern and Watterson’s Katie Shepherd. Bellinger, Buell, Shepherd and Stein competed in the Division I girls state tournament last fall and Seitz, Vannatta and Wallace played in the Division I boys state tournament in the spring. Stein, who teamed with Bellinger to place second in the state with a 6-4, 62 loss to Cincinnati Ursuline Academy’s Komal Safdar and Mehvish Safdar in
the doubles final, said the Ohio Valley Davis Cup provided a good tune-up for summer and fall competition. “The main thing you pick up is confidence, I guess,” she said. “It’s mostly just for fun.” “The best thing was having us all together,” Bellinger said. “We all know each other and we all hit with each other. I think that made us a good team.” pbatterson@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

the number of classes went from 13 to 14 and the 215-pound weight class became mandatory, and in 2006, when the 275-pound class was increased to 285. The NFHS also adopted a rule change involving the figure four hold around the head, which now is illegal. Previously, the figure four was illegal around the body or both legs. “I like the new rule, it will work out,” Grant said. “The figure four is unfair. It’s a pretty big advantage to have that locked up like that. I don’t like the figure four. ... Two legs against the neck is usually not a good idea.” In another change, the boundary line now is considered inbounds. Previously, a wrestler was out of bounds if he or she was touching any part of the line, which is two inches wide. “I like expanding the mat a little bit and having the line inbounds instead of out of bounds,” coach DiSabato said. “I’m just curious how it’s going to be called because of the size of the gyms. The mats are closer together, but you award the aggressor as much as you can and that tends to help out if the line is inbounds rather than out of bounds.”
a couple bigger kids coming out for the team next year and it won’t hurt us as bad as it could have in the past. We just have to have our wrestlers wrestle the best they can. The other schools are in the same position we are.” Marysville coach Shawn Andrews said his program will adapt to the new guidelines, and he believes the changes actually might help his team next season. Andrews said he expects the lower weights to be a strength of his program. “Looking at it selfishly for a year or two, it helps Marysville specifically because it’s where we have more guys than less guys, but in the broad scope of wrestling, it seems a little odd that they took away a weight class from some of the weight classes that are most competitive and then added some at the top,” Andrews said. “It helps some kids from football or some kids who are concerned about losing too much weight between 171 and 189.” According to the NFHS, the last major change in weight classes occurred in 1988, when the lowest class was increased from 98 to 103.

2011 Midwest Regional Cup
Team Ohio F.C.
U-18 boys settle for 2nd in pool play By AARON BLANKENSHIP ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The Team Ohio F.C. Blast Under-18 boys soccer team found itself with a shortened bench in the Midwest Regional Cup in Fox Cities, Wis., after defender Angelo Pagani and midfielder Drew Pang were injured in the first game. Despite the loss of those starters, Team Ohio Blast managed to go 1-0-1 in its first two pool-play games, tying CUP Crew Juniors from Cincinnati at 2 on June 25 and beating the Michigan Wolves 3-0 on June 26. However, it couldn’t overcome the ejection of starting defender Max Rohda less than 20 minutes into its final game of pool play June 27 and lost to the KCFC Rangers from Kansas 1-0. The KCFC Rangers won their four-team pool with a 3-0 record and nine points to advance to a semifinal June 28, while Team Ohio Blast finished second (11-1, 4). “That was a nightmare because we had a player sent off the field for a penalty that didn’t happen,” coach Steve Dawson said. “We had three players collide and the referee gave (Rohda) a red card out of it. They got a penalty shot on that play, too, and our goalkeeper (A.J. Fleak) made a great save to keep us in the game. Our team dealt with the situation the best they could and Colton Bloecher had a couple of great opportunities where he could have scored, as did Frazier Fernandes. But it was tough to play with 10 men because it was warm and it was our third game in three days. Our players grew tired as the game wore on and we finally gave up a goal with about 20 minutes left.” Jesus Villarroel and Bloecher each scored goals to help Team Ohio Blast rally from a 2-0 deficit to tie CUP Crew Juniors. The following day, Bloecher, Villarroel and Fernandes scored as Team Ohio Blast defeated the Michigan Wolves. “We had some injuries, but we played well overall and came one win away from making it past group play,” Dawson said. •The Team Ohio Green U17 boys team went 0-1-2 to finish third in its pool with two points behind Grand Rapids (Mich.) Crew Juniors (3-0, 9) and Elm Grove (Wis.) Premier (1-1-1, 4).
Team Ohio Green opened June 25 by tying Shattuck-St. Mary’s from Minnesota at 1, as Ray Gans scored the tying goal on a penalty kick with 20 minutes remaining. The next day, Team Ohio Green battled Elm Grove Premier to a scoreless tie behind goalkeeper A.J. Tresoline. “It’s frustrating because we played better than both those teams and should have beaten them, but we didn’t finish our chances,” defender A.G. Basiakos said. “We played great defense, but we didn’t score enough to win.” On June 27, Team Ohio Green lost to the Grand Rapids Crew Juniors 4-2 despite goals from Ryan Magee and Trevin Pitroff. The Grand Rapids Crew Juniors, who are ranked first in the U.S. Region 2 club soccer rankings, outscored their first two opponents 11-0. “We were the first team to score against Grand Rapids and By Patrick Ferron/ThisWeek we were down only 3-2 late in Sage Gardner of the Ohio Crew Juniors U-19 team chases down the ball on June 25 during a game against St. Croix, Minn.

2011 Midwest Regional Cup
Classics Eagles
Missed chances haunt U-13 boys team left and scored on a free kick to tie the game at 1. That tie proved costly to the Classics Eagles in the tournament in Fox Cities, Wis. They lost to Vardar from Michigan 4-0 the following day and eventually finished third in their four-team pool with a 1-1-1 record and four points behind Cleveland Pacesetter (2-1, 6) and Vardar (2-1, 6). Out of the Classics Eagles’pool, only Cleveland Pacesetter advanced to a regional semifinal June 28. Cleveland Pacesetter finished first on a tiebreaker because it had beaten Vardar.
By AARON BLANKENSHIP ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Even though the Classics Eagles Under-13 boys soccer team had squandered several scoring chances against the Wichita (Kan.) Lightning in its Midwest Regional Cup opener June 25, coach Mike Lentz felt comfortable with a late one-goal lead because his squad was dominating possession. However, those missed opportunities came back to haunt the Classics Eagles. A Lightning player drew a foul 19 yards from the team’s goal with under a minute
Nick Teutsch beat three defenders en route to scoring on a low, hard shot just inside the far post to put the Classics Eagles ahead 1-0 in the first half against the Lightning. Will Bolton almost made it 2-0 with 20 minutes left, but his shot hit the left post. “We had total ball control and we only gave up one shot on goal each half, so I felt pretty comfortable in the way we were playing even after we missed out on all of those chances to score a second goal,” Lentz said. “But we got called for a foul and gave up that late goal, and
it took away our momentum and confidence. Had we won that game, I’d like to think we’d have played much better against Vardar. Knowing we had to beat Vardar to have a chance to win our pool, we pushed forward a little more than usual, which left us more vulnerable defensively. And we just didn’t match Vardar’s intensity.” The Classics Eagles concluded pool play June 27 with a 2-0 victory over Cleveland Pacesetter. A.J. Smith scored what would become the winner 12 minutes into the game from 25 yards out.
In the second half, Teutsch scored off an assist from Jake Harr and goalkeeper A.J. Smith made a diving save to his left to preserve the shutout. “That was the best we’ve played all spring,” Lentz said. “We dismantled them in every category, especially when it came to shots on goal and time of possession. It was nice to beat our group winner. We finished a great spring run with a commanding performance.” ablankenship@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com
Ohio Premier
Eagles advance two girls squads to semis By BRAD EMERINE ThisWeek Community Newspapers
The Ohio Premier Eagles advanced two of four girls soccer teams to Midwest Regional Cup semifinals after pool play concluded June 27 in Fox Cities, Wis. Ohio Premier went 10-2 overall in pool play. The Under-13 and U-16 squads both went 3-0 in pool play and played in semifinals June 28. The regional winners in the U-14 through U-19 age groups, which were determined June 29, advanced to the U.S. Youth Soccer National Championships in Phoenix on July 27-31. The Eagles U-13 team played Eclipse Select of Illinois in its semifinal. Eclipse is a familiar opponent for Ohio Premier. “Unfortunately, our semifinal is the one that everyone says should be the final, but in a blind draw, this happens,” coach Kevin Dougherty said. “We’re friends with the Eclipse and know a lot about them. They have a huge organization that draws from a large area. We’ve played all five of their 13U club teams, but then they combine their best players for the tournaments. They have many very special players.” The Eagles defeated Carmel (Ind.) United SC Elite 3-1 to open pool play. They then beat Greater Toledo FC 5-0 and advanced to a semifinal by beating Centennial (Minn.) 4-0. Against Carmel, Kristen McFarland scored twice and Alivia Milesky also scored. Sam Grim made four saves but allowed a late goal. She then earned the shutout against Toledo, as McFarland scored and assisted on goals by Madison Moroi and Aubrei Corder. Milesky and Bailey Williams also scored. Against Centennial, Moroi had two goals. Corder and McFarland also scored and Grim and Parker Myers were rarely challenged in net. “We scored three goals in the first nine minutes and just began moving girls around, having some fun, working on some things and just trying not to get anyone injured,” Dougherty said. •The U-16 team had to get past Eclipse Select in pool play to advance, and the Eagles did that in dramatic fashion in the finale to move on to a semifinal against KC Force on June 28. The Eagles beat Eclipse Select on the 10th penalty kick after neither team had scored entering the penalty kicks sessions. Both teams scored on two of five penalty kicks to force the extra one-kick rounds, where they matched each other’s efforts until Bailey Wilson converted in the 10th round after Eagles goalkeeper Anna Rosa James-Buhigas had stopped Eclipse’s 10th kick. James-Buhigas made five saves in the penalty kicks phase. “She was unbelievable and came up with huge saves when we needed them,” said coach Chris King, whose team outscored its opponents 10-0 in pool play. “Usually, you tell the keeper to get one save in (penalty kicks) and we’ll win it. She had

saves on five of 10 penalty kicks and they were off frame with another. She was just outstanding.” The Eagles won their first two games 7-0 against KC Fusion and 3-0 against Michigan Football Club to put themselves into a points tie with Eclipse before their showdown. “The maximum goal-differential in tiebreakers here is four per game, so both us and Eclipse had seven total points entering (the June 27 pool finale),” said King, who also guided the Eagles’ U-18 team to the regional tournament. “We knew going into it that there had to be a winner and that it could go to penalty kicks. One team was going to the semifinal and the other was going home.” Two years ago, the clubs played in the U-16 regional championship and the Eclipse won in a shootout to send the Eagles home. Against the Fusion, the Eagles used three goals from Lindsay Agnew and one apiece from Nicole Hopkins, Alexis Milesky, Hannah O’Shaughnessy and Brooke Maletic. O’Shaughnessy, Milesky and Agnew scored against Michigan Football Club. The defense was strong in front of James-Buhigas, who made just five total saves in the first two pool games. •The U-19 team went 2-1 in pool play and did not advance. The Eagles opened by beating Dynamo of Indiana 5-1 before losing to defending regional champion Eclipse (Ill.) 3-0 and beating Bloomfield (Mich.) 5-1 in the finale. Against Dynamo, Sarah Gross scored twice. Also scoring were Nadja Kolliesuah, Ellie Gavin and

Casey Barrett. Shannon Flowers made three saves. Against Eclipse, the teams played a scoreless first half. The Eagles trailed 1-0 with about 10 minutes left when they changed their strategy to try to apply more offensive pressure. “The first half was evenly contested, but we should’ve scored first and led at half,” coach Matt Ogden said. “We needed at least a draw, so it didn’t matter if the final was 1-nil or 3-nil. We had 13 players and they wore us down in the second half. But if we score first, we can play a little different style and try to preserve the lead and get a positive result.” The Eagles got goals from Barrett, Gross, Andrea Hulls and Amber Kern in the finale, as well as an own-goal from Bloomfield. “We had nothing to play for, so we made it a farewell game for these girls who have played together for a long time,” Ogden said. “Flowers marshaled the box pretty well, but we controlled tempo and possession throughout after we fell behind 10. We definitely feel that we are a team worthy of advancing, but it wasn’t meant to be. If we played Eclipse on a different day, things might have been different. But we made mistakes and that’s soccer.
We came back and played hearts-out and that was fantastic.” •The U-18 team went 2-1 in pool play and did not advance. The Eagles lost their opener 3-1 to KCFC Intensity. They beat Eden Prairie (Minn.) 2-1 and then won 5-2 over Dakota Alliance Black of South Dakota. King was disappointed by the opening loss, but credited the Intensity. “That’s the best team we’ve played in the last two seasons,” King said. “We were down 2-1 and gave ourselves a couple good chances to even it up. But we were unable to do that and we started pressing and got caught forward. We exposed ourselves and they got the extra goal.” Ashley Gruenbaum scored for Ohio Premier. The Eagles trailed Eden Prairie 1-0 after allowing a goal just before halftime. But Jesse Sabers tied it and Michela Paradiso scored the winner with around 11 minutes remaining. Goalie Abbey Smith preserved the win from there. bemerine@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

OVERVIEW Continued from page D1 outscore its three pool play opponents 12-1. “It’s pretty unusual to win three games here the way we did because all the teams competing here are very good,” Dougherty said. “The way our U-16 team made it is more typical of this kind of tournament because there isn’t much separating most teams from a win or loss here.” All five local boys teams fell short of qualifying for the semifinals. The Crew Juniors U-19 and Team Ohio F.C. Blast U-18 (1-1-1 in pool play) each finished
Tournament champions second in their pools, and the Classics Eagles U-13 (1-1-1), Team Ohio F.C. Green U-17 (01-2) and Team Ohio F.C. Juventus U-16 (1-2) each placed third in their pools. Classics Eagles U-13 boys coach Mike Lentz said most teams were just a couple favorable bounces or calls away from winning an extra game or two to advance. “There’s a lot of parity at this level,” Lentz said. “Looking at our bracket, three of the four teams could have come out on top on any given weekend.
