DELPHOS Elementary Principal Mark Fuerst made

his retirement plans official at Mondays Delphos City
School Board of Education meeting. Fuerst has been with
the district for 40 years.
Each day has been a blessing to be with the students
and teachers and no two days were the same, Fuerst said.
It has gone by quickly.
Fuerst started as a teacher, was the Landeck building principal and then principal over both Landeck and
Franklin.
I have met so many people I know call friend, Fuerst
continued. I will forever be a Delphos Jefferson Wildcat.
Fuerst, a Waynesfield native, said his retirement will be
filled with spending time with his 10 grandchildren.
I have a lot of grandchildren, five still in diapers,
Fuerst said. We were all together for Christmas and it
was a party.
Superintendent Kevin Wolfe said he was glad he the
opportunity to work with Fuerst over the last three years.
Newly-elected Board President Erica Pimpas recalled
her time in school with Fuerst as a teacher and coach and
her three daughters experiences with him as they joined
the school system.
We will find a replacement for you but you wont be
replaced, Pimpas said.

Keep water lines in mind during frigid winter temperatures

BY NANCY SPENCER
DHI Media Editor
DELPHOS With temperatures

dipping down near zero and wind chills
even colder, its important for residents
to keep their water lines in mind.
Delphos Water Superintendent Todd
Haunhorst has some advice for residents on how to keep their water pipes
flowing and how to thaw them out if
they do become frozen.
If you have pipes that are on outside walls, keep the faucet on with a
stream about the size of a pencil lead,
Haunhorst said. I know there are concerns with water consumption but letting the water run with a small stream
will be less costly than a flooded home
and/or burst water pipes.
Cabinets should be opened at faucets in the kitchen or bathroom to allow
Leaving a stream of water running the size of a pencil heat to reach the pipes.
lead can prevent water lines from freezing this winter.
Preventative measures also include
(DHI Media file photo)
insulating pipes, making sure vents to
crawl spaces are closed and insulated and wrapping outside spigots and
removing hoses so they dont freeze.
A very small crack in the foundation or vent can let in enough wind to
freeze pipes, Haunhorst said.
If pipes do freeze, thawing them
should be done with caution.
Never use an open flame to thaw
a frozen pipe, Haunhorst stressed.
Use a hair dryer, an electric space
heater or a salamander. Just make sure
these items are away from combustible
materials.
Homeowners should also be sure to
know where the water shut-off valve is
located inside the home.
Property owners are responsible for
protecting both water pipes and the
water meter from damage. Residents
can take steps to prevent water pipes
and meters from freezing in order to
continue to enjoy water service as well
as avoiding unnecessary and expensive
repairs. Preventing pipes and meters
from freezing is much easier than try-
ing to thaw them.

Provide warmth to pipes:
Eliminate cold drafts near water
pipes.
Tightly close doors and windows
to the outside and eliminate drafts from
crawl spaces.
Fill cracks in walls and around
windows.
Turn off water to garden hose connections at an inside valve and drain
the exposed piping before freezing
temperatures set in.
Open the door to the room where
the pipes are located to allow warmth
to circulate.
Place a lighted bulb near water
pipes. (Never use open flames.)
Wrap pipes in insulation or heat
tape.
Open cabinet doors below the sink
to allow warm air to reach the pipes.
Make frequent use of your water
supply:

DeWine warns consumers Craig Wayne Boyd at NPAC

to avoid lottery scams
COLUMBUS Ohio
Attorney General Mike
DeWine has warned consumers to avoid lottery and
sweepstakes scams as the
estimated Powerball jackpot
hits $800 million.
In the past month, the
Ohio Attorney Generals
Consumer Protection Section
has received more than two
dozen complaints involving
sweepstakes or prize scams.
The average reported loss is
about $5,000.
If you receive a call saying youve won the lottery,
its almost always a scam,
Attorney General DeWine
said. Con artists play on
whats in the news, so were
warning people to be wary of
scams as the Powerball jackpot grows.
The scams often begin
with a phone call or a letter
claiming the consumer has
won a few million dollars
through a lottery or sweepstakes. In order to collect the
winnings, consumers are told
to wire a few hundred or a
few thousand dollars to cover
fees or taxes. In reality, they
havent won a prize, and any
money they send will be lost.
Individuals who send
money once usually will be
contacted again and asked to
send more money to cover
taxes, customs fees, or other
costs supposedly associated
with delivering the winnings.
As long as the victim continues to send money, the scam
artist will keep calling.
Signs of a lottery scam
include:
Winning a lottery you
dont remember entering.
Receiving calls from a
lottery or government agency
saying youve won millions.
Receiving an unexpected check for a few thousand
dollars.
Having to pay a fee to
collect your winnings.
Having to send money
via wire transfer or prepaid
card.
Attorney
General
DeWine encourages consumers to take the following
steps to avoid scams:
Be very skeptical of
someone who calls you and
says youve won the lottery.
These calls are almost always
scams.
Dont wire money or

pay a fee to receive your

winnings.
Dont give out your personal information to someone who contacts you unexpectedly over the phone or
through email.
Be skeptical if you are
asked to call an out-of-country phone number in connection with a lottery or sweepstakes win.
Be skeptical if you
receive an unexpected check
for a few thousand dollars. It
could be a counterfeit check
used as part of a scam.

If you have older relatives
or friends, look for signs that
they have been targeted by lottery scams. Red flags include
unusual banking activities,
wire transfer receipts, or an
increased number of phone
calls made to them.

and is topped with a rebellious flair. Growing
up in the Dallas, Texas, suburb of Mesquite,
Boyd was born under the influence of gospel
and country music. He first developed as a
multi-instrumentalist at a very young age, and
was later his church choir director and a touring
musician with various national acts. After a trip
to Nashville brought life-changing events his
way, Boyd headed to Music City and signed a
publishing deal with EMI shortly thereafter.
Tickets range from $20-35. Call the box

Sports
Here we go again?
What to make of
Jim Metcalfe
the weekends wildcard games?
The one that will
be the talk of the NFL
for weeks and for
all the wrong reasons
is the Bengals/
Steelers tussle in the
Queen City.
Everyone knows
about the meltdown by the Bengals in giving that game
away at the end.
Yes, they had it won after picking off Landry Jones trying
to bring the Steelers back all that Jeremy Hill had to do was
not fumble at the end.
I cant understand why you dont hang onto the ball with
both hands and take a powder as soon as you feel resistance.
You just have to be smart in that situation and not be a hero.
Then there were the two personal fouls on the Bengals that
all but insured a Steelers win.
You cannot argue that what Pacman Jones coming into
contact with an official is a no-no.
Having him remain a Bengal with his reputation for all
these years is one of those questionable moves the Bengals
have been known for lately and leaves you wondering what
Marvin Lewis is thinking.
However, I also question why there was no flag thrown on
Steelers assistant coach Jerry Porter for being on the field in
that situation.
It seems to me he was egging the situation on even more in
the pretext of checking on Antonio Brown even his players
were trying to get him off the field so I repeat: where was
the flag?
Even OL coach Mike Munchak got flagged for a situation
on the sideline with the Bengals Reggie Nelson earlier, so the
precedent had been set.
And to me (my own personal opinion), the penalty on
Vontaze Burfict hitting the aforementioned Brown was not a
penalty I have kept looking at it and he did not lead with his
head but hit him with his shoulder.
I understand Brown got hurt but should there be a penalty
for every time a player gets hurt?
What are these guys supposed to do: let a receiver potentially catch a pass; or stop on a veritable dime, an impossibility,
when a player is trying to play defense?
I think Burfict got called because he is who he is a
extremely volatile linebacker who got suspended for the first 3
games next season.

Don Bridges
Class of 1962
Don graduated in the Elida High
School class of 1962.
He is a four-year letterwinner
in basketball and baseball at Gomer
High School, earning all-league
awards in both sports.
Dons greatest success came
in baseball, where he finished his
4-year career with a batting average
of .496 and a pitching record of 47-7.
He pitched multiple one-hitters, and
one perfect game.
Don first caught the attention of
professional baseball scouts at the
age of 12, when he was assisting Ed
Sandy at a tryout camp sponsored by
the Philadelphia Phillies. Scouts followed Don through his high school
career, and in the spring of 1962,
Don was offered contracts by four
professional teams. Don turned down
college scholarship opportunities to
sign a professional contract with the
Philadelphia Phillies.
Don played five seasons as a
left-handed hitting outfielder in the
minor leagues, with stops in Miami,
Florida; Bakersfield, California;
Eugene, Oregon; and Chattanooga,
Tennessee.
In the off-season, Don would
return to the Lima area and attend
classes at Ohio Northern University.
Don left professional baseball after five seasons, but continued playing baseball for the Gomer
Merchants, and, for many years, softball with the Kruse Furniture team.
Don also coached his
sons little league teams, and
assisted with the Elida Acme baseball
summer team.
Don has been married to his high
school sweetheart, Carolyn (Crates),
for 50 years. They are the parents of
two sons, Jeff and Brian, and four
grandsons.
Don worked for Textron
Corporation (formerly Ex-Cello) for
29 years, until they left Lima.
Don is now semi-retired and still
enjoys playing golf.

Fourth period lifts St. Johns

DELPHOS St. Johns

and Spencerville had played
an entertaining girls basketball game Saturday afternoon
inside Robert A. Arnzen
Gymnasium.
So much so that it stood
tied at 41-41 with 7:11
remaining.
The Lady Blue Jays then
put together a 14-0 spurt to
take control and went on to a
65-53 non-league conquest of
the Lady Bearcats.
The Jays (8-5) led 41-36
to commence the finale but
the Bearcats (4-8) got a deuce
and a hoop-and-harm by
Jayden Smith (15 markers,
5 rebounds) to tie it at 7:11.
Madilynn Schulte (gamehigh 29 counters 4 triples 6 boards) and Sydney
Fischbach (19 points, 8 caroms) took over from there.
Off a timeout, Schultes bomb
from the right wing at 6:40

gave the Jays the lead for
good as she scored 10 points
the rest of the way. Fischbach
took command inside in grabbing five of her boards and
netting six of her points and
the extended defense forced
a couple of quick miscues
that were turned into points.
When Lexie Hays (8 points, 7
rebounds, 3 blocks) drove to
the hoop, the Jays led 55-41
with 3:53 left. Jenna Henline
(8 markers, 4 boards) finally
broke the string at 3:17 with
two tosses but the closest the
Lady Bearcats could get was
the final margin.
The Jays canned 9-of-14
shots in the period (24-of-52
total, 4-of-17 downtown, for
46.2%) versus Spencervilles
4-of-8 (18-of-45 for the
game, 3-of-10 long range, for
40%).
It was a fun game to
play in and watch because
of the pace. Still, it came
down to our defense getting
some big stops in the fourth

period, St. Johns mentor
Dan J. Grothouse explained.
No. 31 (Jacey Grigsby) in
particular really hurt us the
first half with her quickness
but our guards did better at
containing her the second
half. Their overall quickness
bothered us but Madilynn
played a big game from the
outside and when they tried
to deny her the outside shot,
Syd stepped up inside with
good positioning. They both
played big today.
Spencerville (4-8) head
man Greg Ekis figures the
game was another step in
the development of his
still-youthful crew.
We made a couple of key
mistakes in their run: turnovers, not checking out on
rebounds, especially missed
free throws, and them taking
advantage of those chances. You cant do that with
a good shooting team like
St. Johns, Ekis added. We
played pretty well til then.

I told the girls in the locker
room that this is the type of
game we want to play: you
know St. Johns will play
hard and are well-coached.
We want to get to the point
that we play hard even in
practice and carry that over
into games; were slowly getting there.
Both teams were looking to push the pace in an
up-tempo contest but it suited
the Jays better in the opening eight minutes. It was tied
at 9 halfway through on a
3-ball by Bearcat sophomore
Kaiden Grigsby (9 markers)
the Bearcats never had
the lead but it was tied four
times before the Jays ran
off nine in a row to close
the stanza, capped by a long
deuce out of the left corner
by Hays with 46 ticks on the
board, for an 18-9 spread.

Indians defense corrals Blue Jay boys

BY JIM METCALFE
jmetcalfe@delphosherald.com
SHAWNEE TOWNSHIP Shawnee

inducted a pair of long-time coaches/
teachers into its Hall of Fame prior to
Saturday nights varsity boys basketball
clash with St. Johns.
Then the veteran Indians roster conducted a defensive clinic against the
Blue Jays and rode the scoring of Jaden
ONeal to a 56-35 non-league conquest
inside Lappin Gymnasium.
Dr. Charles LaGrande and Steve
Stern were part of the 28th induction
ceremony.
The Indians (riding a 6-game winning streak) used its defense particularly man-to-man full-court to harass
the Jays (6-5) into 21 turnovers and into
14-of-36 shooting (1-of-7 beyond the
arc) for 38.9 percent.
Shawnee is playing very good basketball right now. They can apply so
much defensive pressure on you from
every spot and they do a great job of
denying the next pass and disrupting

your timing, St. Johns coach Aaron
Elwer said. What is really hurting us
right now is the live turnovers that they
take to the other end and get easy shots.
If we can have our defense in a halfcourt set, were defending pretty well.
Were just giving up too many easy
baskets.
On the other end, ONeals 23 points
on 10 field goals led a stellar 23-of-41
shooting night for the Tribe (9-3), 2-of-6
downtown, for 56.1 percent.
The Jays Jesse Ditto (6 markers, 4
rebounds) scored the games first basket
at 7:20 on a putback for the Blue and
Golds only lead but six turnovers and
3-of-9 shooting kept them from keeping
pace with Shawnees 6-of-10 shooting.
Ray Manley (7 markers, 4 steals, 4
boards) tied it at 5:27 and then the senior
ONeal (3 assists, 3 thefts) hit a traditional 3-point play shortly after to take
the lead for good. Six Indians scored at
least a basket in the stanza in building
a 15-6 edge before Ryan Hellman (5
points, 4 rebounds) put back a rebound
with 17 ticks to go to make it a 15-8

scoreboard at the end of one quarter.
The Jays started to get 6-8 junior
Tim Kreeger (11 counters, 5 rebounds)
into the offense despite the Indians surrounding him whenever he got the ball.
He dropped in seven points as the visitors stayed within striking distance by
outscoring the hosts 13-11 in the stanza.
A basket by senior Zach Casey gave the
Tribe a 23-13 edge midway through the
canto but by the time Hellman hit the
1st-of-2 foul shots at 1:12, St. Johns
was within 26-21.
The Indians came out of the locker
room for the third period and made a
renewed effort to bother the Jays defensively. They continued to force turnovers (5) and limit the scoring chances
(3-of-9). It was the other end that was
the difference as ONeal was too much
to handle for the Jays in scoring 11
counters, repeatedly getting to the basket in pacing a 7-of-11 shooting stanza.
His runner in the paint at 55 ticks put the
Tribe in front 44-27.

Second-half rally lifts Raiders

our best overall team effort.
Wayne Trace pushed the
margin to 56-42 at the end
of three quarters, getting a
Speice 3-point play along
with a Linder bucket and
3-pointer.
Linder (11) and Speice (9)
provided 20 of the 27 Raider
points in the quarter.
Delphos Jefferson made a
brief run in the fourth quarter.
A bucket by Smith and a
3-pointer from Drew Reiss
quickly cut the deficit to
56-47. After a Speice basket,
another trey by Stockwell got
the Wildcats within 58-50
at the 6:42 mark. However,
Wayne Trace answered with
a Luke Miller basket and a
pair of buckets by Alec Vest
as the Raiders extended the
lead to 64-50.
The Wildcats did get it
back to 64-55 after a 3-pointer and basket by Reiss, but
would not cut into the deficit
any further.
This is a big win for
us, Linder said. Delphos
Jefferson is a good basketball team, but our kids came
out and really played good
team basketball tonight. I was
very pleased with our effort
tonight.
Linder was especially
pleased with the efforts of
junior guard Brady Stabler
(5-11), who primarily guarded Wildcat star Trey Smith
(6-5) in the paint despite
being undersized by six inches.
Ethan Linder led the
Raider efforts with 31 points,
his third straight game over
the 30-point mark. Speice
chipped in 11 points and Vest
added 10 for Wayne Trace,
which improves to 8-4 on
the season. Stabler and Miller
added 9 points each for the
Raiders.

Lancers crush Miller City

BY JOHN PARENT

MILLER CITY If Lincolnview head

coach Brett Hammons had any question about
how his team would play the day after an
emotional win, he didnt have to wait long for
the answers.
The Lancers dominated on the glass, played
strong team defense, and played their customary unselfish style of offense in a 65-45 win at
Miller City on Saturday, in a game that wasnt
as close as the final margin.
Im extremely proud of the way these
guys bounced back after the tough game we
had last night (a 53-50 win over Bluffton on
Friday), Hammons said. After all of the
energy we had to use in that fourth quarter
(versus Bluffton), to come out and play the
way they did, Im extremely pleased.
Lincolnview (12-0) scored the games first
six points and raced out to a 13-3 lead when
Caden Ringwald drained a 3-pointer in transition midway through the opening period.
By the end of the period, the Lancer lead was
18-8 with several opportunities coming from
an uptempo offensive style.
We knew we had to come out to a quick
start at their place, because they usually shoot
it well here, Hammons said. I thought we
had an advantage in getting out and running
and trying to get some easy baskets in transition; we sped the game up a little bit and that
helped us in the first half to get our lead.
Though The Wildcats have a handful
of excellent outside shooters, Miller City
couldnt find the range against a Lancer
defense committed to challenging every shot.
The Wildcats (6-6) shot just 25 percent (6-for24) in the first half.
For the most part, we challenged,
Hammons said of his teams defensive effort.
We didnt get beat (on the dribble), we were
able to get our hands up (on shots), and our
backside help was able to rotate over, and we
held them to one shot. They are a good offensive rebounding team, but for the most part
we held them to one shot and we were able to
get out and go.
Meanwhile, Lincolview connected on a 57
percent (16-for-28) clip. When they did miss,
the Lancers were seemingly always there for
the rebound. Lincolnview collected 10 offensive boards in the first two quarters, part of a
Musings
(Continued from page 6)
Perhaps he is getting what
he has sowed, rightfully or
wrongfully, and is another
Lewis questionable decision.
Pittsburghs Ryan Shazier
did flat-out lead with the head
on Giovanni Bernard last
time I checked, wasnt that
spearing? earlier in the
game and there was no flag,
helping to add fuel to an
already heated atmosphere.
St. Johns
27-8 edge on the glass by halftime.

Were winning games, and were extremely pleased, but weve been outrebounded in
almost all of our games, Hammons said.
That was a point of emphasis in our keys to
winning: we had to rebound.
Miller Citys problems were compounded
by a slew of personal fouls whistled on the
home squad early. By early in the second
quarter, the Wildcats had four players saddled
with two fouls each. By the halfway point of
the third, the Lancer lead had grown to 30
points on three different occasions.
Miller City was able to shave 10 points off
the final margin with a strong fourth quarter,
one in which they forced a group of Lancer
reserves to turn the ball over 10 times.
Lincolnview shot 58 percent (26-for-45)
for the game, and assisted on half of their
teams field goals. That unselfishness is what
has defined Lancer basketball to this point in
the year.
We stress to our guys not to stand - no
matter if its a zone offense or a man offense to cut to the open area, and we will find you,
Hammons said. They are so unselfish; they
dont try to force a shot up over someone, they
always look to drop it off and we have guys
who are cutting to open areas and looking for
those drop-offs.
Derek Youtsey had a strong game with 17
points and 9 rebounds while Trevor Neate
also scored 17. Chandler Adams was the
third Lancer in double figures with 13 points
on the night. Miller City, which finished at
34 percent from the floor, was led by Kody
Kuhlmans 12 points and Jackson Lammers
10. Matt Niese was the Wildcats top rebounder, grabbing five.

HAVILAND Wayne
Trace outscored Delphos
Jefferson 27-10 in the third
quarter and held off the
Wildcats in the fourth for a
76-64 win on Saturday night.
The Raiders took advantage of a tired Wildcat
squad that had posted a
Northwest Conference win
over Crestview on Friday
and turned a 3-point halftime
deficit into a 56-42 lead after
three quarters.
We ran out of gas, said
Delphos Jefferson head coach
Marc Smith. Our kids played
hard and we were coming off
of a tough game last night
against Crestview, but you
have to give Wayne Trace a
lot of credit, too. They came
out in the second half and
made some big plays.
Delphos Jefferson got
early baskets from Jace
Stockwell and Trey Smith to
open the third quarter and
push the lead to 36-32, however, Wayne Trace answered
with a 16-0 run to take control of the contest.
Buckets by Justin Speice
and Ethan Linder along with
a 3-pointer from Alec Vest
quickly helped the Raiders
post a 40-36 lead. Linder
picked up a bucket and a pair
of free throws while Speice
chipped in two more baskets
and Wayne Trace extended
the margin to 48-36 with two
minutes left in the quarter.
We changed defenses
there to start the second half
and we were able to get a
couple of quick turnovers
and turned them into baskets, said Raider head coach
Jim Linder. I thought we
had some kids really step up
tonight and it was probably
Jefferson with 24 points and

Stockwell added 15 points.
Reiss posted 11 as well for
the Wildcats, who fall to 8-4
overall.
Wayne Trace was 28 of
52 in the contest from the
field (54 percent) compared
to Delphos Jeffersons 22 of
54 (41 percent). At the charity stripe, the Raiders were
15 of 21 (71 percent) while
the Wildcats hit 12 of 16 (75
percent).
I cant fault our effort,
said the Wildcat head coach.
The guys played hard, but
we just didnt have enough in
the tank. We will learn from
tonight and look to get better
next week
Wayne Trace resumes
Green Meadows Conference
play on Thursday as the
Raiders host Holgate (4-6,

Somehow, that got lost in

the shuffle but commentators are now asking about the
absence of a flag on that one.
Here is the mistake that I
think Lewis is making: not
tamping down on his players
in trying to beat the Steelers
at their own game.
Pittsburgh has earned a
reputation of being a very
physical team with the likes
of Mean Joe Greene, Jack
Lambert and Mel Blount on
down to Joey Porter, James

Back came the Black Attack behind senior
Jacey Grigsby (11 points, 5 assists). She broke
the streak with a slip move to open the second
period and dropped in seven in the period as
the Bearcats heated up by attacking the basket
(6-of-11). On the other end, the Jays, who
started 7-of-11, cooled down with a 3-of-13
stanza. Thus, when the other Bearcat senior
Caitlyn Probst buried a triple from the left
wing at 42 ticks, the guests were within 29-28.
The tempo remained at a high pace in the
third period, though the scoring pace slowed
down for both. The teams traded a pair of
early baskets each Fischbach and Schulte
for the hosts and Smith and Jacey Grigsby
for the visitors as the game stayed within
a point. Seven turnovers for the Bearcats (14
total) and four for the Jays (10 for the game)
began to mar the offensive efficiency, as
well as a combined 9-of-28 shooting. When
Harrison, etc.
In the name of trying to
stand up to that and match
that kind of intensity, perhaps they have gone overboard and they are now reaping the rewards.
As Lewis has been repeating ever since the loss, you
have to stay calm and poised
in those situations.
We shall see where they
go from here.

Jefferson tied for 5th

at Spartan Invitational
LIMA Jefferson finished tied for fifth in the 2016
16-team Lima Senior Spartan
Wrestling Invitational held
Saturday at Lima Senior.
Spencerville was 9th, St.
Johns 12th and Lincolnview
in last place.
Spencervilles
Cody
Dickson was the areas lone
champion, pinning his way to
the 145-pound title.
Jeffersons Hunter Binkley
finished runner-up (170),
along with Josh Kroeger
(182) and Lane Bennett (195).
Delphos had a pair of
3rd-place finishes out of
Jeffersons Wyatt Place
(132) and St. Johns Brett
Vonderwell (170). Andrew
Foust (DJ; 113) and Peyton
Ford (SV; 152) completed the
day in fourth place.
Area wrestlers receiving
5th-place honors are Luke
Bollinger (LV; 106), Evan
Mohler (SJ; 160), Justin
Wieging (SJ; 182) and Blaithe
Kline (LV; 195). Sixth-place
finishers James Greathouse
(LV; 120), Conner Anspaugh
(DJ; 145), Gage Bellows (SV;
160), Seth Schwartz (SV; 170)
and Spencer Wannemacher
(DJ; 220).
In seventh place: Jayden
Hurles (DJ; 126) and Daniel
Lehmkuhle (DJ; 138).
Eighth
place:
Peter
Ankerman (SJ; 138) and
David Grant (DJ; 152).
The area was represented
well with Jefferson leading
the way, placing 10 wrestlers out of 14 weight classes.
Spencerville placed all four
wrestlers they entered; St.
Johns placed four of seven.
This is a very nice tournament and a good gauge to see
where you are at mid-season.
There were many good matchups at the tournament; one
particular match had all eyes
on it, especially the Delphos
area Hunter defeating
returning State qualifier Brett
in a tightly-battled 3-1 finish
in the semifinals, St. Johns
head coach Derek Sterling
observed. Hunter wrestled
a very good tournament all
day, going 4-1 with 3 pins.
Both are very good wrestlers
and have very big goals. The
hard-fought battle on the
mat and great sportsmanship
afterwards is what wrestling
is all about.
Josh Kroeger had an
outstanding tournament finishing runner up and going
4-1 on the day with 3 pins.
Lane Bennent also finished
as runner-up while having
many close battles and one
big pin. Lane looks like he
has started turning the corner and is starting to peak at
the right time. Wyatt Place at
the 132 weight class grabbed
a 3rd-place finish. This was
by far the deepest weight
class in the tournament with
many quality wrestlers. He
finished 2-1 on the day with
a pin. Brett Vonderwell was
back in action for the first
time this year and for the
first time since his 2015 State
run. Bretts conditioning was
down some but overall looked
very good. He finished 4-1 on
the day with 3 pins.

Lincolnview girls best Cougars

BY JOHN PARENT

VAN WERT - Lincolnview

never trailed during Saturday
afternoons girls basketball
game at Van Wert County
rival Van Wert.
The Lancers dominated
the glass and shot a respectable 42 percent (15-for-36)
in picking up their fifth win
of the year, a 39-22 decision.
I thought we did everything we needed to do to
win, Lancer head coach Dan
Williamson said. We got a
ton of offensive rebounds
(11), which was huge; we got
a lot of extra shots, a lot of
extra possessions and extended possessions, especially in
the second half.
I think we out-played
them. Not skill-wise or
anything like that, we just
out-hustled them.If there was
a loose ball on the floor, we
had two or three girls right
there.
The host Lady Cougars
(0-12) shot a dismal 21 percent (7-for-33) overall and
0-for-12 from 3-point range.
Defensively, we rebounded well and eliminated their
second shots, Williamson
said.
While Williamson was
pleased with his teams performance, Cougar coach
Lance Moonshower says his

team is still a work in progress.

We are just not translating anything we are
working on in practice to
the court (during games),
Moonshower said. The girls
are making it twice as hard
by not doing the easy stuff:
passing up the easy pass for
a hard pass, dribbling into
traffic instead of making one
extra pass. We are going to
keep working on it. Unless
we take care of the little stuff,
the big stuff aint coming.
Though the results havent
been favorable, Van Werts
team continues to strive for
improvement.
The girls are working
hard. A lot of times teams
(that are struggling) will turn
on each other; there is none of
that going on, Moonshower
said. These kids are united
and they are working hard,
but what they need to understanding is that they could
work about half as hard if
theyd start executing the
stuff we are talking about.
The Lancers set the tone
early, when Olivia Gorman
drove to the basket and made
a tough shot while drawing a
foul. After the 3-point play,
Morgan Magowan answered
inside for Van Wert, but a
6-0 Lancer spurt midway
through the opening period
gave Lincolnview a working
margin.
Lincolnview put up an
11-1 run, helped by a pair of
putbacks - one each by Kayla
Schimmoeller and Lakin
Brant - and the lead grew
to as many as 14 before the
Cougars pulled back within
11 at the break.
Though Schimmoeller
picked up her third personal
foul in the second quarter and
had to sit to open the second
half, she still finished with
10 rebounds to go with her
4 points.
Kayla has rebounded very well in the last two
games, Williamson said.
Thats something we need
from her.
Brant, meanwhile, filled
up the stat sheet for the
Lancers. The reserve guard
led the way with 5 offensive
rebounds, part of eight total
board, to go with 4 points, 3
assists and 2 steals.
Lakin is just an intelligent player, Williamson
said. Shes not tall, shes not
fast, shes not a lot of things,
but she is very, very smart.
She has great anticipation she can anticipate where the
ball is going to bounce. She
tied up so many balls today there were four or five times
where she created a jumpball; she has been a big, big
addition for us.
The Cougars pulled to
within 10 when Cassidy
Meyers stripped Gorman of
the ball and went the distance for a layup before Ally
Jackson knocked down an
18-footer late in the third, but
the Lancers led by 14 after
three and pulled away in the
fourth.
Cougar senior Morgan
Magowan led the way with
11 points for Van Wert and
added 4 rebounds.
Morgan had a nice
game, Moonshower said.
Shes another one where we
just tried to work on a couple
of things with her and said
just focus on these things
and she put them into the
game tonight; I was really
proud of Morgan, the way she
came out. She played hard,
but she also played under
control.

Prevent Unnecessary
Surgery by Finding the
Real Cause of Pain
Danielle came to see Dr. Maurice Chung after

three unsuccessful years of treatment for pelvic
pain. At age 29, she had undergone two surgeries
to alleviate severe cramps and bleeding. When
those procedures proved ineffective, she underwent a complete hysterectomy. But despite all of
these drastic and costly measures, Danielle (not
her real name) continued to have pain.
Dr. Chung traced the source of the problem
to an earlier injury. Danielle had fallen, but no
one at the time realized there was damage to her
bladder, muscles and nerves. Based on his diagnosis, Dr. Chung was able to reduce Danielles
pain by around 80 percent with medication
and minimally invasive surgery. His mission is
to help others like her avoid the same kind of
ordeal.
For more than 25 years, Dr. Chung has treated
women for severe menstrual pain, sexual pain,
endometriosis, bladder control, and organ prolapse, among other ailments. He is quietly passionate about managing pain in the least invasive
way possible.
Clarifying the problem is the first step
Pelvic pain is often diagnosed as endometriosis, Dr. Chung points out. But endometriosis
accounts for only about 20% of all cases. By
viewing pain through a wider lens and better
understanding the source of pain, Dr. Chung
helps women avoid unnecessary surgery. When
a woman comes to me with severe pain, I start
with the least invasive treatment approach,
he says. Most instances of pelvic pain do not
require major surgery.
New Center for Treating Pelvic Pain
A graduate of Northeastern University
College of Pharmacy and Tufts University

Medical School, Dr. Chung is board-certified
in OB-GYN and uro-gynecology. He has been
a certified laparoscopic surgeon since 1995. Dr.
Chung oversees the Van Wert County Hospital
Womens Center of Excellence for Pelvic Pain,
Organ Prolapse and Bladder Control, which
opened in 2015.
Visitors to the Center include women at every
stage of life, from teenagers to the elderly. What
brings them to the Center is simple: They have
pain often debilitating pain but the cause can
be complex difficult to pinpoint. In many cases,
women have come to Dr. Chung only after previous treatment efforts proved unsuccessful.
Pain is not normal and should not be
ignored
Women are brought up to accept that pain
is a normal part of their lives, Dr. Chung says,
but pain is not normal. It is, however, commonplace and can take a huge toll on a womans
quality of life. Pain is important; it points us
toward solving a problem and should not be
ignored. Sometimes, after unsuccessful attempts
to treat pelvic pain, women are made to feel the
problem is all in their head when, in fact, the pain
is very real.
At the Center we take all womens symptoms seriously, Dr. Chung says. We start by
engaging them in a conversation to understand
every possible factor that could be causing their
problem. We want our patients to know they are
not alone. With proper diagnosis and a cautious
approach to treatment, there is a good possibility
we can alleviate their pain without drastic measures.
Fuerst
Treasurer Brad Rostorfer informed the board

of upcoming activity in Washington Township
concerning a livestock operation.
I dont have a lot of information right now,
Rostorfer said. I know I will have more at the
next meeting. What I do know is that they are
asking for Tax Increment Financing for 100-percent tax forgiveness with a 15-percent payback to
us and Vantage.
Capitol Aluminum and Glass of Bellevue was
approved to replace 98 windows and two eastside door entrances at Jefferson Middle School.
The $138,900 project will be completed in the
summer. The windows at the school are original
dating back to 1975. Their replacements will
include screens.
The board re-issued fall coaching supplemental contracts for the 2016-17 school year, including: Josiah Stober head soccer coach; Jason
Klint assistant soccer coach; Neal McConnahea
volunteer assistant soccer coach; Sherri Stewart
head volleyball coach; Melisa Smith junior
varsity volleyball coach; Kay Gossman eighthgrade volleyball coach; Jodi Cartagena seventh-grade volleyball coach; Cammy Miller
volunteer assistant volleyball coach; Maureen
Teman head football cheer coach; Beth Geise
junior varsity football cheer coach; Brittany
Rahrig junior high football cheer coach; Chris
Sommers head football coach; Jon Kroeger,
Brian Wiemerskirch, Jeff Stockwell, Brandon
Keaser
Keaser took his seat on the

board for the first time Monday.
I am looking forward to
familiarizing myself with how
the school board functions and
interacts with the school and
the community, Keaser said.
There are a lot of things I need
to learn and catch up on to what
the school board is doing. Im
hoping I can bring up different
questions and ideas.

and legislative liaison; Rode was elected vice

May August, October and November; set the

be semi-annual and as-needed.

graduate now lives in Delphos
and hopes his outside perspective is helpful.
I know what its like to be
from a larger district, he began.
The entire student body here is
about the size of my high school.
Keaser is employed with
NOW Marketing Group in
Elida and works with the latest
technology and processes.
I know we need to keep
our students on the cutting edge
when it comes to technology,

Keaser said. I work with it
every day and I have knowledge you cant learn in a classroom setting.
Keaser feels his participation on the school board natural.
Its my civic duty to serve
my community in any capacity
I can, he said. I never want to
stop learning even if its outside
my comfort zone. This is a big
step for me in my growth as
a professional and personally.
