Sharonville has said good-bye to one of the most recog-nized members of its police de-partment, as she retires afterseven years of service.

That’s a full career for a po-lice dog, and Officer Cjeena, aBelgian Malinois, leaves behinda legacy that includes 1,200 de-ployments resulting in 220 ar-rests.

It’s a lot of wear and tear onthe police dog, who trained sev-en days a week with her partner,Officer Darian Bookman said.They’ve been together since2009, when Cjeena was 3-years-old.

Her responsibilities includ-ed leading narcotic searches,building searches, and suspecttracking and apprehension.Those duties will be covered byother K9 units, which operate asmutual aid to local police de-partments as specific needs oc-cur. Several surrounding com-munities, including Blue Ash,Forest Park, Woodlawn, Fair-field and Springfield Township,among others, have K9 units.

Police Chief Aaron Blaskysaid there is no immediate planto bring another police dog intothe department, though he’sopen to the possibility.

“Fiscally, we have to take alook at the budget,” Blasky saidof the decision to staff a K9 unit.

For now, Bookman covers hispatrol alone, after seven yearswith his unique partner. But hewill come home each night to hispet, Cjeena, who watches overhis home now. It’s an adjust-ment for both.

Cjeena’s contributions toSharonville were more thanfighting crime. She broughtpride and community spirit tothe city, earning three goldmedals in building search, ap-prehension and article search atthe 2011 Ohio Police and FireGames. She also brought homesilver and gold medals in thecompetition.

The police dog also workedpatiently with her partner dur-ing community events, includ-ing the annual Touch a Truckevent sponsored by the Sharon-ville Fire Department, whereshe allowed children to sur-round and pet her.

Those services to the citywere recognized during CityCouncil’s March 8 meeting,when Mayor Kevin Hardmanpresented Bookman and Cjeenawith a plaque, proclaiming theday to be K9 Officer Cjeena Dayas the audience applauded.Cjeena replied, with a bark wor-thy of a police veteran.

In a proactive move the Vil-lage of Evendale’s Council ex-panded an ordinance permit-ting bow hunting of deer underspecific guidelines to includecoyotes.

The ordinance specifiedcoyotes that are a danger or nui-sance can be taken by bow. Thehunting is strictly regulatedand special permits must be ap-plied for and approved beforehunting is permitted, empha-sized Village of Evendale PoliceLt. Joe Asbrock.

He is responsible for the per-mitting process. All individualswanting to bow hunt in Even-dale must apply for their permitthrough the police department.

At this time coyotes are notcausing issues in Evendale. As-brock said that coyotes havelived many years in Evendalewith little or no impact to resi-

dents or businesses.About three years ago when

council approved the ordinancepermitting bow hunting of deer,

it was because the populationhad grown to the point of creat-ing a public nuisance from dam-aging vegetation to causing au-to accidents, he said.

The Ohio Department ofWildlife has very few restric-tions on coyote hunting, As-brock said. As such, coyotes canbe hunted year-round in thestate with no bag limit. A few re-strictions apply during deergun season.

In Evendale, the coyote hunt-ing guidelines will match thoseused for the deer program, As-brock said. Only people who arepermitted to hunt deer with abow in Evendale – in specific lo-cations, dates and times – will bepermitted to kill a coyote.

Statistically speaking,coyotes pose a limited threat tohumans, Asbrock said. His re-search indicates that people aremore likely to be killed by dogsand bees than by coyotes, hesaid. While the threat to pets,

such as cats and dogs, is real ittoo is statistically low, he added.

One of the best methods ofdealing with coyotes is througheducation, Asbrock said. Apoint supported by HamiltonCounty Sheriff’s Deputy MattRusk, the resource officer inAnderson Township.

“You hear stories here andthere, and we do field calls(about coyotes) but they comein spurts,” he said. This time ofyear coyote sightings are ex-tremely rare as they are in theirdens with pups. There are norules or policies related to thehunting of coyotes specificallydesigned for Anderson Town-ship. That would come the OhioDepartment of Wildlife, he said.

When calls do come in, Rusksaid he often advises people tojust keep a watchful eye onsmall pets, to keep trash canssecure, and to bring in pet foodduring the night hours.

Common sense is the most

practical way to deal withcoyote concerns, along withpublic education, Asbrock said.

» Do not feed pets outside -dog and cat food can attractcoyotes.

» Make garbage, includingdumpster, inaccessible tocoyotes and other animals –smaller animals that feed on thetrash such as raccoons, opos-sums, mice and feral cats arepotential food for coyotes.

» Eliminate the availabilityof bird seed – which attractssmaller animals on whichcoyotes feed (It’s not necessaryto stop feeding birds, but it isbeneficial to minimize the spill-age).

» Do not let pets run free andunsupervised (even in a fencedbackyard).

» Be aggressive if there is ahuman/coyote encounter – yell,shout, clap hands, throw rocksand sticks – to reinforce a fearof humans.

Additional water ca-pacity, vehicle safety ad-vancements and financialsavings are three of thebenefits the Village ofEvendale will receivefrom a new pumper firetruck.

Delivery of the newfire truck from PierceManufacturing in Wiscon-sin is not expected untillate November or earlyDecember. Cost is about$680,000. Once it arrives,members of the depart-ment will spend one and ahalf to two months train-

ing with the new pumperbefore it officially goesinto service, Chief Mi-chael K. Hauck said.

The Evendale Fire De-partment is replacing itsreserve engine, a 1991Sut-phen pumper. The 2001Sutphen rescue pumperwill become the depart-ment’s reserve enginewhen the new pumpergoes into service, he said.

“The 1991 engine hasseen an increase of 45 per-cent in maintenance costover the past two yearsand only carries 450 gal-lons of water in its tank,”Hauck said. “The new en-gine will reduce the main-

tenance costs and the 750gallons of water in thetank will allow the depart-ment to attack fires for anadditional two minutesbefore needing to have asupply from a fire hy-drant.”

The additional twominutes can be critical asthe fire department’s en-gineer works to establisha water supply while inte-rior crews work to extin-guish a fire, he said.

Significant safety ad-vances in fire apparatushave also been made in ve-hicles from 1991 and 2001to today. These advance-ments improve crew safe-ty while responding andreturning from emergen-cy calls, Hauck said.

Some of the featuresinclude: SRS airbags inthe cab, flip down cabsteps that are more likestairs than a ladder (po-tential to reduce injurieswhile climbing onto andoff the vehicle), indepen-dent front suspension,disc brakes for better/shorter stopping distanc-es, seat belt tensioners,improved headlights andscene lighting and anti-lock brakes.

“The new engine willallow us to use a water/foam mixture to extin-guish fires quicker anduse less water causingless water damage duringfirefighting,” he said.“The foam also makes thehoses lighter and easier tomaneuver in structures,putting less stress on thefire fighters.”

The department plansto sell the 1991 pumper ei-ther at action or to anoth-er community.

Some people say theydon’t go to church, butthey are spiritual.

Willis D. Stanley’sspirituality is bothchurch based and from

the heart.Perhapsthat is whythe guard-ian angelswho madethemselvesknown athis Spring-dale homeare soeasilyaccepted

as they dance throughthe lives of Willis, hiswife, Patty, and their17-year-old daughter,Jaelyn.

When Jaelyn’s grand-father died, she had herparents buy an angel tokeep guard over hergrandmother. This“guardian angel” used itsprotective power untilthe end. Hanging in“granny’s” car when shedied, it had kept her fromdriving the car, prevent-ing any possible harm toothers.

Willis sincerely be-lieves God directed himto write about the para-normal experiences thatoccurred at the Stanleyhome. Orbs visited themthrough the camera lens-es. These friendly lightsprotected, warned andplayed peekaboo. Stan-ley’s book, “GuardianAngels In Our BlessedHome” will tell you oftheir experiences andthose of others. Contacthim at [email protected] or orderdirectly at www.williss-tanley.com. Willis feels

he has the best clear andconvincing evidence ofparanormal activity andis available to do presen-tations for you.

At Victor Paruta’sbi-annual SharonvilleConvention Center ap-pearance, Willis metParuta in 2013. Paruta isone of Cincinnati’s mosttrusted psychic consult-ants. He found Willis’srecordings of the orbsthat fly around his homeintriguing. Willis predic-ted he would one day dopresentations himself atone of Victor’s events,and offered his assis-tance, which Victor ac-cepted. His next psychicfestival presentation willbe April 9 and 10 at theSharonville ConventionCenter, and Willis willappear from 5 p.m. to 6p.m. Saturday, April 9.Cost is $15 per day or $25for a two-day pass.

Willis met Peggy Dod-son, founder of UrbanBroadcasting Co. Televi-sion, in April 2014 on aplane to Las Vegas, Heshowed her his record-ings on his iPad and sheadvised him to thinkabout writing for a TVshow. Dodson contactedhim near the end of theyear, but after learninghow Alex Haley beganwriting, Willis realizedhe needed to write hisown book first.

In January 2015, theRev. Damon Lynch Jr. hispastor at New JerusalemBaptist Church, hosted aguest pastor who was inthe publishing business.When Willis told thatpastor that he had fin-ished his writing, thepastor very poignantly

queried whether he wascertain it was truly done.That got Willis thinking,and he dug deeper toredraft his work, attend-ing a writing group tolearn all he could. In all,the book took him 14months to complete.Every writer goesthrough the rejectionperiod, but Willis actu-ally enjoyed the experi-ence; it made him feellike he was in the game.Then, entertainmentpersonality, Ken An-derson, introduced himto Createspace Publish-

ing, and author, CarmenK. Glenn introduced himto her editor.

Willis works for theOhio Division of LiquorControl, but has success-fully worn many hatsthroughout his life: lawenforcement officer,counselor working withchildren, loss preventionmanager, personal fi-nancial agent, welder inan auto parts plant, arestaurant manager, aninvestigator and now apublished author.

Willis contributes apercentage of the book

sales to the building fundof New Jerusalem Bap-tist Church. After lessthan a month on the mar-ket, $210 has been givenso far.

Madeira resident MikeRank has captured a gath-ering of friendship thatbrought tribes to Taos,New Mexico, for celebra-tions of dance, drums andcrafts for a presentationat Sharon Woods.

Rank is one of sevenphotographers from thePhotography Club ofGreater Cincinnati whowill present photo collec-tions in the annual TravelSeries at Sharon Woodseach Friday through April29.

Each artist was askedto describe his presenta-tion and the inspirationfor his photos.

Where did you travel?“I traveled to New

Mexico in July of 2015 tophotograph the pueblos inand around Santa Fe andTaos. We also visited Pe-cos and Bandelier Nation-al Monuments and photo-graphed the annual TaosPueblo Pow-Wow.”

“I went to New Mexicoto attend an Arizona High-ways Photography Work-shop. They set the itiner-ary to include photogeniclocations over a sizablesection of New Mexicoduring the five days of theworkshop. This was myfirst visit to many of thesesites.

“We traveled from Al-buquerque to Acoma atSky City, then to the Sali-nas Pueblos; on to the artcolony at Madrid, PecosN.M., Bandelier N. M., toSanta Fe and then to thevillage of Chimayo andthe iconic San Franciscode Asis mission on the

way to Taos. Then back toAlbuquerque on the finalevening where we weretreated to a farewell din-ner by Arizona Highways.

“My photographic in-tent was to creatively doc-ument Native Americanhistory and culture fromthe time of the Spanishcolonies in the 1600s tomodern times. The Span-ish era remains today inthe form of many missionchurches that now exist asruins (in the case of theSalinas Pueblo Missionsof Abo and Quari). Theirchurches remain intact atthe Acoma and Taos Pueb-los.”

What was the high-light of your trip?

“Visiting the Acomaand Taos Pueblos and pho-tographing the Taos Pow-Wow was the highlight ofmy trip. The unique whiteladders of Acoma are aphotographer’s delight asis their pottery.

“The Taos Pueblo’s ar-chitecture and mountainsetting is also unique. ThePow-Wow presented aspectacular color pallet ofindividual costumes en-hanced by the drummingand dancing.”

His advice to travel-ers.

“I would like visitors toknow that Native Ameri-can history and culture isworth the effort and ex-pense of traveling to thedeserts and mountains ofthe Southwest to under-stand and appreciate it.”

The programs are atthe Sharon Centre audito-rium at Sharon Woods,11450 Lebanon Road, at7:30 p.m. They are freeand open to the public, but

require a Great Parks mo-tor vehicle permit. Thepermits, $10 annually or

MARCH 23, 2016 • TRI-COUNTY PRESS • 7ANEWS

Two important days to cele-brate this week: the first day ofspring and Easter. I’ve alreadygot my seed potatoes ready toplant. Ditto with the red andwhite onion sets.

Before all that happenswe’ll be busycoloring eggswith naturaldyes, as usualwith my grand-kids. (Check outmy abouteating-.com site for allthe photos andrecipes for thesebeautiful eggs).When the littleones come over

to color eggs, we’ll make abatch of empty tomb buns tosnack on. Now some of youmay know these as balloonbuns. No matter what you callthem, I think you’ll have funmaking them and I know yourtummy will be happy.

I hope each of you has avery meaningful Easter. Thinkof those who may be alone -give them a call, send a card orset an extra place at your holi-day table. As I always say “it’snot just about the food, butwho shares it with you.”

Can you help?Kentucky Half Runner

green beans like Mom used tomake

Bill Kirby, a Goshen reader,really needs an old fashionedAppalachian recipe for halfrunner green beans cookedover a low flame with what hethinks is salt pork.

My wife, who passed awaylast year, always made thesedelicious beans. She didn’thave a written recipe and Ididn’t pay too much attentionto the way she cooked them.I’ve tried different recipes butnone comes close to hers”, hetold me. Bill also mentioned

that the pork was in the pot forflavoring only, not to eat.

Bill really wants to recreatethese beans “from the hllls of

Kentucky.” Some of you havemade beans like this, so anyhelp you can give Bill will beso appreciated. Heck, he made

me hungry (and a bit wistful)just talking about them. I toldBill I have the best readerswho I know will help.

So do that for Bill and prob-ably more than a few others,won’t you?

Empty tomb buns/balloon bunsThe marshmallow melts in the center of the bun,

so when you bite into it, the bun is hollow but coatedinside with marshmallow, representing Jesus’ resurrec-tion from the tomb. If you go the balloon bun route,again, the inside bakes up hollow but coated withmarshmallow, like a blown up balloon.

12 large biscuits - I used Grands biscuits1 cup sugar1 tablespoon cinnamon12 large marshmallows1 stick melted butter or margarine

Mix sugar and cinnamon in small bowl. Dip eachmarshmallow into melted butter, then into sugar cinna-mon mixture. Wrap biscuit around each marshmallowpinching bottom TIGHTLY. (If you don’t do this, themarshmallow will pop out during baking). Dip biscuitinto butter then into sugar cinnamon mixture again.Place pinched side down in sprayed muffin cup pan.Bake according to can directions. (Again, this is impor-tant because if you over bake, the marshmallow popsout of the side).

Sue’s overnight strataSue Dennedy, a New Rich-

mond reader, is one of my herbalfriends and a talented weaverand crafter. Oh, and did I men-tion she’s a wonderful cook, aswell? Sue and I were talkingabout springtime brunch casse-roles.

“I will share my favorite”,she said. Sue has made this forfamily gatherings many years.Wouldn’t this be perfect forEaster or a spring time brunch?

A publication of

March 16 questionIn how many NCAA tourna-

ment pools are you participating?Do you have a method for pickingwinners?

“All together, I am in exactlyzero tournament pools this year.A recent job change resulted inno one asking me to join in.However, I do have a fool proofmethod of choosing: pick Michi-gan State to win it all and thenchoose any Big 10 team, exceptfor The Ohio State, to win theirrespective games. That, plus al-ways pick U Conn and Gonzagato go quite far. Go Green!”

M.J.F.

“I get in the ESPN online en-try and do a few brackets. I do asecond pool with some lifelongbuddies. Each ‘team’ picks eightteams based on a blind drawround robin (1-8 then 9-16 etc).In the first one I can win $1 mil-lion if I am perfect and in the

second I can win about $50 thatis kept in the ‘pot’ at settlementtime for beverages. No one hasever done a perfect ESPNbracket, but we all have fun inthe round robin.

“The method I use is to ig-nore the experts and pick withmy gut. Did you notice the ex-perts never win the ESPN per-fect bracket either? Go figure!”

There is an often toldstory about mayor’s courteach Monday night in anOhio village.

At the beginning of eachsession the mayor wouldinvite those who had beencharged with misdemeanortraffic offenses to pleadguilty, pay their fines, thenleave. Everyone else wasrequired to remain seateduntil the “guilty miscreants”took care of business anddeparted the pint-sized courtroom.

Once the room wascleared the remaining of-fenders were awarded their“day” in court.

When silence fell withinthis solemn setting, the may-or asked all to stand, pro-claimed the everyone wasguilty in mass, banged hisgavel on the bench and toldeveryone to form a line toremit funds for their fines.

Such was the case one daylast month in Columbus,when Ohio’s State Depart-ment of Education sent let-ters to 33 Columbus CitySchool District principalsproclaiming their guilt formanipulating student enroll-ment data and sentencingthem in mass to a two-yearlicense suspension.

After inflicting its punish-ment , ODE offered to waive22 months of the suspensionif the principals would servethe remaining 60 days dur-ing two summer breaks, apunishment reminding any

school offi-cial of Sat-urday Schooldetention onsteroids.

Investiga-tions haverevealedunethicaloffensesmight havebeen com-mitted by

some of those charged. Infact one central office levelofficial has entered a plea ofno contest to the charge ofmanipulating enrollment andattendance data. But 33building level administra-tors punished for the samealleged crime in the thesame district is an egregiousact to say the very least.This action is reminiscent ofthose mass punishmentsinflicted on groups of stu-dents who refused to identi-fy the guilty offender.

Most of the those incrimi-nated have stated that theywere following directionsfrom a district supervisor.Even David Yost, Ohio’sstate auditor, suggested thatthe alleged offenses werevaried, each one bearing itsown set of data related cir-cumstances.

It’s fair to say that not oneof the accused administra-tors ever considered theidea of “cheating” whilepreparing for the positionthey eventually attained. Infact all intended to make a

positive educational differ-ence in the lives of theircolleagues and students.

Unfortunately, this insaneera of accountability basedon high stakes tests hasmore than compromised thetrue mission of public educa-tion and those who seek tomeet it. These events arerelated to governments’mindless accountability lawsenacted by elected officialswhose political agendasoften run counter to thebasic needs of publicschools.

Now all 33 principals maybe guilty of some violation ofenrollment data manipula-tion. Who knows? What is thedifference between a stu-dent who has been truant anexcessive number of consec-utive days and one who hasnot notified school officialsof a transfer to anotherschool? The unreported ab-sences associated in bothcases have an inevitablenegative impact on test re-sults.

Unless the Ohio Depart-ment of Education holds ahearing for each of thosecharged, then it’s system ofjustice will mirror the infa-mous pronouncement ofguilt procedure invokedeach Monday night by themythical village mayor.

The Community Press’sinformative, comprehensiveMarch 2 analysis of the her-oin crisis prompts this col-umn.

We in the Ohio Legisla-ture passed laws in recentyears allowing police andfirst responders to adminis-ter Nalaxone (Narcan) tosave heroin overdose vic-tims’ lives, and that workwas the subject of the news-paper’s recent coverage.

That is only the firstchapter. Our Hamilton Coun-ty state legislators are busywriting the next chapters inour critical war against her-oin abuse.

I learned at a recentmeeting with the HamiltonCounty Heroin Task Forcethat its best investigativetool for determining who theheroin dealers are is to enlistthe voluntary cooperation ofheroin users whose liveshave been saved by Narcaninjections. However, the fireservice in many communi-ties has refused to discloseto the police the identity ofthe people to whom theyhave administered Narcan,citing federal medical priva-cy laws (HIPAA). As a re-sult, the police are disabledfrom interviewing thosevictims to find out who theupstream drug suppliersare.

My research disclosedthat the federal law contains

a law en-forcementexemptionwhere pro-vided bystate law.Therefore, Ihave suc-cessfullyamended apending bill(House Bill110) in the

Senate to require the fireservice to tell law enforce-ment, on request, the identi-ty of those to whom Narcanhas been administered. Thiswill help police investigateand prosecute the heroindrug dealers.

Meanwhile, my HamiltonCounty colleagues, StateReps. Blessing and Dever,have won House passage of adifferent bill (HB 171) thatlowers the quantity of herointhat a heroin dealer mayhave in order for the dealerto be prosecuted as a majordrug offender, with en-hanced prison sentencesapplicable to these dealers.This bill is pending in theOhio Senate, and I support it.

Also, Findlay State Rep.Sprague and Hamilton Coun-ty State Rep. Driehaus haveteamed up to sponsor legisla-tion (HB 249) that providesimmunity from criminalprosecution to persons whocall 911 to report heroinoverdose cases and to the

overdose victims them-selves. The immunity en-courages people who may behigh themselves to call forhelp and to save their friendor relative’s life, and it onlyimmunizes them from lowlevel drug use or possessioncharges and only if theypromptly seek treatment fortheir drug problem.

ot only will this save lives,but also it will ensure thatthe revived drug users arestill alive to potentially helplaw enforcement catch the“dealers in death” who areproviding the heroin - whichis often laced with evenmore dangerous and addic-tive chemicals these days.The immunity for users onlywill be extended twice - af-ter that, the user probablydoes need to face the crimi-nal justice system.

I am working to ensurepassage of all these mea-sures. Lives are on the line.The crisis is too real. Thereis no time to waste. Yourreaders should take pride inknowing that the state legis-lators from your neighbor-hoods are working together,and with local law enforce-ment and addiction treat-ment providers, to battlethis scourge on multiplefronts.

Ohio Legislature isbattling heroin epidemic

William J.Seitz COMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

“There are two ways toconquer and enslave a nation.One is by the sword. The otheris by debt.” John Adams 1826.

I was reminded of thosecompelling words as the na-tional debt quietly passed the$19 trillion milestone in Janu-ary. It was soon followed byPresident Obama’s proposed$4.1 trillion budget for his lastyear in office, which mayresult in the national debtreaching $20 trillion by theend of his presidency. Signifi-cantly, the national debt hasnow exceeded the economicoutput of the entire country.

I have witnessed our coun-try descend from being thesingle largest creditor nationin the history of the world tobeing the single largest debtornation in the history of theworld. Quite a feat, but cer-tainly not an enviable one.One of the reasons for thisdramatic shift is the U.S. Su-preme Court decision of Flem-ming v. Nestor in 1960. TheCourt ruled that workers haveno legally binding or contrac-tual rights to their Social Se-curity benefits and that thosebenefits could be cut or elim-inated at any time (the equiv-alent of political suicide).

The significance of thedecision was that it openedthe door for Congress to bor-row against the Social Securi-ty trust fund with impunity.

In 1960, the last year of theEisenhower administration,the national debt stood at $291billion as the country wasrecovering from World WarII, the Korean War and a re-cession. Despite the nationaldebt, the federal governmenthad a balanced budget withoutconsideration of Social Securi-ty receipts. After Flemming v.Nestor, deficit spending be-came the new norm. By 1982,the national debt eclipsed the$1 trillion mark. By 2000, thenational debt had increased to$5.6 trillion.

During the last two yearsof the Clinton Administration,modest surpluses wereachieved as President Clintonworked with a Republican-controlled Congress. Thosebudgets included Social Secu-

rity receipts,but they werestill smallsteps towardfiscal respon-sibility.

By con-trast, the last15 years haveproducedunconsciona-ble levels offederal deficit

spending, thus resulting inmore debt. By 2008, the na-tional debt hovered just under$10 trillion. By the end of thisfiscal year, the national debtwill have doubled in eightyears.

Even more disturbing thanthe national debt is the spec-ter of unfunded liabilities -promises made by our govern-ment to us - that now stands at$101 trillion for Social Securi-ty and Medicare alone. Someestimates range as high as$210 trillion for all unfundedliabilities.

“The fact that we are heretoday to debate raising Amer-ica’s debt limit is a sign ofleadership failure. It is a signthat the U.S. Governmentcannot pay its own bills. It is asign that we now depend onongoing financial assistancefrom foreign countries tofinance our Government’sreckless fiscal policies. In-creasing America’s debtweakens us domestically andinternationally. Leadershipmeans that, ‘the buck stopshere.’ Instead, Washington isshifting the burden of badchoices today onto the backsof our children and grand-children. America has a debtproblem and a failure of lead-ership. Americans deservebetter.”

Those words were spokenby Sen. Barack H. Obama inMarch 2006. It is no wonderthat we are now the singlelargest debtor nation in thehistory of the world.

The Wyoming High SchoolCowboys baseball team wouldlike to disrupt the recent pat-tern of the Cincinnati HillsLeague going to either Madeiraor Reading. Wyoming has hadfive consecutive winning sea-sons, but has not won the CHLsince 2007.

Last year’s squad was 15-14and 9-5 in the league for thirdplace. Most seasons, coachChris Fiehrer’s Cowboys win atleast two postseason games.

Four starters return in sen-iors Sam Marty, Grady McMi-chen and Brendan Madden, plusjunior Andrew Marty.

First baseman Madden wasinjured most of last season afterstarting the season with a pairof hits in two at-bats. Pitcher/in-fielder Andrew Marty, was CHLsecond team with a 5-1record onthe mound. McMichen hit .277as a junior infielder and pitcherSam Marty was second on theteam in innings with 37.2.

Fiehrer also is looking for ju-nior E.J. Klee to step up aftersome sophomore at-bats lastseason.

“We’re returning two verysolid pitchers from last year,”Fiehrer said. “Andrew Martyand Sam Marty are primed tohave big years on the mound forus. We like that we have a lot ofpotential and depth with ourpitching staff. There will be ahealthy competition for in-nings.”

Wyoming will begin at Badinon March 28 before heading outof town to Tennessee for gamesbetween March 30-April 2. TheCowboys open up in the CHL atIndian Hill April 4, then returnhome to their refurbished fieldApril 6 against the Braves.

“Defensively, we feel we canbe very solid,” Fiehrer said.“We graduated a lot of offenseand leadership last year. We’llrely on kids to take over leader-ship roles and step up offensive-ly for our club.

Princeton When Princeton pulls back

the curtain on the new baseballseason March 26, it will unveilits new baseball facilities seat-ed right where the old highschool used to be on ChesterRoad.

Fourth-year coach Rick Wil-son said, according to the con-struction company, everythingwill be ready for the opener.

When the Vikings take thefield they’ll do so with only onereturning starter in juniorshortstop Aaron Levy from ateam that finished 10-16 a yearago.

Wilson said of Levy, “He’s ajim-dandy, I tell you what.” Lev-y’s already been offered by To-

ledo and he visited ColumbiaUniversity in New York recent-ly. Levy hit .338 last year with ateam-high 24 RBI.

Joining him in the ranks willbe senior James Boyle, sopho-more Dion Tubbs, junior Solo-mon Reed, senior Reed Murphyand senior Cole Baker.

“Defensively this is proba-bly the best team we’ve hadsince I’ve been here, we justhave to make up the lack of ex-perience,” said Wilson. “I’mreally excited about this year.We play a kind of scratch andclaw, small ball type of game. Iput a lot of runners in motion,bunts, hit and runs; you have todo that to compete against these(GMC) schools and it’s good, ex-citing baseball.

“Even though we’re youngwe’ve really matured quite abit,” he said. “I’m really happywith the sophomore class andwe’ve got an excellent fresh-man class.

“First time, for as long as mymemory goes back, we actuallyhave a middle school team thisyear. That’s really gonna help usin the long term.”

Princeton’s opener is athome against New Miami onMarch 26, then the Vikings trav-el to Sycamore March 29 to openthe Greater Miami Conferenceschedule.

Moeller

The eight-time Division Istate champion Moeller HighSchool baseball team is backand ready with another highly-rated squad. Coach Tim Heldwon last year’s trophy with ateam that finished 31-3.

From that group, 11 varsityplayers return, 10 of them sen-iors. There are 12 new varsityplayers and all are upperclass-men.

Top players include left-handed senior Nick Bennett,who was 7-1with a 0.90 ERA lastseason, and senior right-handerCameron Junker, who was 4-0with a 2.29 ERA. Behind theplate, senior Patrick Mullingerhit .324 with a home run and 25runs batted in. Senior outfielderKyle Butz hit .318 with two hom-ers and 25 runs batted in and is abase stealing threat.

“Pitching will be ourstrength with Junker and Ben-nett returning,” Held said.“We’ll be young defensively andthe lower parts of our batting or-der will have to really step upearly in the season. We shouldbe first or second in our leagueand able to make a deep tourna-ment run once our line up ma-tures.”

Preseason, the Crusadersare ranked No. 28 in the countryby Perfect Game.

After a final scrimmageagainst Centerville at the Uni-versity of Cincinnati March 23,Moeller begins with a double-header March 26 with gamesagainst Highlands and Strongs-ville. From March 31-April 2,Moeller will play in the Louis-ville Slugger Classic at LakePoint, Georgia. The GreaterCatholic League-South openeris April 6 against La Salle atSchuler Park.

CHCAThe Miami Valley Confer-

ence, particularly its Scarlet di-vision, should again be one ofthe tougher leagues in the area.

In recent years, CHCA hasshown itself to be well-equippedto handle the chaos againstteams such as Cincinnati Coun-try Day and Summit CountryDay. This year shouldn’t be anexception.

There are a couple newfaces, including the one stand-ing in the third base coachingbox as Nick Rosenfeldt takesover for Jeff Keith. Rosenfeldtis far from new to the program,however.

He began his coaching ca-reer under Larry Redwine in2004 and became junior varsityhead coach in 2011. He was thetop assistant under Keith aswell.

That said, the Eagles returnplenty of talent from last year’sregional semifinal team includ-ing captains Chase Murray,Johnny Noyen and David Jung.

Murray, a Georgia Tech com-mit, is a returning captain andall-State player from last sea-son.

Roger Bacon

Momentum and an all-busi-ness approach have Roger Ba-con’s baseball team trending upheading into the season.

Coach Tim McCoy, enteringhis 10th season with the Spar-tans, said, “From last year’steam the seniors that we hadlast year really set a precedentfor what practices should looklike and the approach to thegame of baseball. These guyshave a professionalism aboutthem. It’s like a business day forthem when we have practiceand games.”

McCoy added, “We have a tonof experience, a lot of guys whohave played four years on varsi-ty, most of them got some sort ofplaying time on varsity, that ex-perience and playing in the(Greater Catholic League) isjust a battle day in and day out.The GCL is a special league andit separates people from otherschools because of that compe-tition.”

Leading the way this yearare seniors Alex Speed, BeauOtto, Liam Garrett, Sam Hoe-fling, Henry Bollmer and juniorJeordon Kuderer.

McCoy said that Speed cando a little of everything, playingshortstop, centerfield andpitcher. Speed, who hit .292 lastseason with 17 runs and 21 hits,“is a four-year starter on varsi-ty, he’s one of the very few I’vecoached who have done that,”said McCoy. Otto, a shortstopsigned with Marietta College,hit .325 last year and stole ateam-high 24 bases. Garrett’s a

Junior Noah Pitman makes his move.

three-year starter behind theplate, and Hoefling made themove to the outfield this season.Bollmer was mostly a designat-ed hitter last season and hit .333with 11 RBI.

Kuderer’s “obviously thereal deal,” said McCoy. Last sea-son, the left-hander tossed twono-hitters and set the single sea-son school record for hits (37).Kuderer hit .529 with with 23RBI and 16 stolen bases; on themound, he posted a 1.38 ERAand recorded 43 strikeouts in40.2 innings.

McCoy also expects bigthings from sophomore BillyBollmer and junior first base-man Josh Brenner who will alsohelp on the hill.

Roger Bacon will rely on itsdefense and pitching — “we setteam records in both categoriesacross the board (last season),”said McCoy. “Being solid defen-sively in this era of baseball, wetake pride in defense and mak-ing smart plays. I would like tothink we’re a pretty cerebralteam. I feel like if we keepgames under five runs we’re asgood as anybody in the city de-fensively.”

The Spartans have a newhome base this season, BrandonPhillips Field, where they openthe season March 26 againstTaylor.

St. XavierNow in his third season as

head baseball at St. Xavier, BobSherlock feels like this is thedeepest team he’s had on NorthBend Road.

“I like our talent, I like ourdepth,” said Sherlock. “We lostsome good players last year andwe’ll miss them but we feel likewe replaced them for the most

part talent wise. We’re deeperthan the first two years I washere. Team chemistry is start-ing to come about. The seniorshave experience and the juniorskind of have that youthful en-thusiasm — it’s a good mix, Ireally like how they’re comingtogether.

“We really like our club,much stronger all the wayaround.”

The Bombers have four re-turning starters and a few livearms with varsity experience.

Senior left fielder NoahMehrle, who’s signed to play atCase Western University, hit.299 last season and returns to

the starting lineup along withsenior catcher J.P. Bitzenhofer,who’s signed with the Univer-sity of Kentucky. Bitzenhoferhit .304 last year and had a team-high 18 RBI. Senior secondbaseman Sam Ankenbauer alsoreturns to the starting lineup af-ter hitting .280 with 21hits a sea-son ago. Junior shortstop Tre-vor Kuncl also returns, andSherlock said now that Kunclhas a year of varsity under hisbelt in the Greater CatholicLeague they’re expecting bigthings from him.

Senior Ben Elsen will helptend the hot corner at third baseand junior center fielder Mi-

chael Cleary will be a big piecefor the Bombers.

On the mound, junior right-handers Sam Kendall and SamKlare will handle a lot of in-nings. Sophomore Nathan Kap-pers threw nine innings on var-sity last season.

Sherlock said of Kappers,“He’s got a great frame (6-foot-3, 195 pounds), very repeat-able delivery, very smooth … agreat mound presence; throw-ing on varsity as a freshmandidn’t phase him.”

Senior left-hander BrennanHatten, who’s signed with OhioDominican, and junior right-hander Shayne Rice will be pri-

mary relievers. “Defensively I think we’ll be

able to play with anybody,” saidSherlock. “Our pitching is muchimproved. If we’re able to holdthe opposition down (offensive-ly) and our bats can perform weshould have a good year.

“We’ve got an awfully toughschedule, but we want guys whowant to play in big ball games. Ithink overall we’re better … butthe schedule is tougher.”

St. X opens up at homeagainst Nitro, the state runner-up in West Virginia last season,on March 26 before welcomingCenterville on March 28.

In response to the in-creasing number of mili-tary and veteran studentsat UC Blue Ash, the col-lege established a VeteranStudent Affairs office in2013 to better assist themand their immediate fam-ily members in navigatingall of the educationalbenefits that come withtheir military service.There were 110 militaryand veteran students en-rolled at the college forthe fall 2015 semester,compared to just 11 in2010.

“DAV has remaineddedicated to fulfilling theneeds of our nation’s vet-

erans for nearly 100years, and our Trust ex-ists to assist other charita-ble organizations in theirefforts to improve thelives of the men and wom-en who served,” saysRichard E. Marbes, Presi-dent of DAV’s CharitableService Trust. “It is ourhope that providing thesefunds to UC Blue Ash’sVeteran Student Affairsoffice will accomplishthat very goal.”

The funding will pro-vide financial support todeserving studentsthrough scholarships andcoverage of certain stu-dent fees. It will also beused to create moreevents that are specific tomilitary and veteran stu-dents.

“We will be able to pro-vide more support to ourstudents in a variety ofways that we just haven’tbeen able to in the past,”

says Dave Frese, coordi-nator of Veteran StudentAffairs at UC Blue Ash.“This grant is a very im-portant part of our ongo-ing growth in serving ourmilitary veterans andhelping them make asmooth transition into, orback into, higher educa-tion.”

The funding will alsoprovide for new comput-ers with software forCommon Access Cards,the standard identifica-tion card for active dutymilitary personnel. Hav-ing this software allowsmembers of the militaryto access information totheir specific educationbenefits. In the past, add-ing the software was costprohibitive and UC BlueAsh administrators had torefer military students tothe UC campus in Cliftonto use their CAC.

With the help of a funny, animatedorange cat, the Metropolitan SewerDistrict of Greater Cincinnati isspreading the word about its SewerBackup Response program. If youlive in MSD’s service area, you will bereceiving a magnet and a card in themail over the next month.

The mailing encourages MSD cus-tomers to report a sewer backup intheir home or business by calling 513-352-4900, 24 hours a day, seven days aweek.

MSD will investigate the sewerbackup to determine who is responsi-ble: MSD or the owner of the proper-ty. MSD will also explain what ser-vices are available to you if MSD is re-sponsible, such as cleanup assistanceand payment of damage claims. In ad-dition, properties subject to reoccur-ring backups may be eligible for theinstallation of sewer backup preven-tion devices.

MSD has offered a Sewer BackupResponse program, the first of itskind in the nation, to MSD customerssince 2004. MSD is required to pro-vide the program and publicize it aspart of its federal Consent Decreewith the U.S. EPA.

To help increase public awarenessof sewer backups and offer a fun wayto answer common questions, MSDrecently launched an interactivewebsite which includes a video,game, blog postings and an animatedcat called Puddles.

Called “Do Your Part Cincinnati,”the website explains the differentcauses of sewer backups, the respon-sibility of property owners to main-tain their private building sewers (thesewer from the home to the main pub-lic sewer) and MSD’s sewer backupresponse program, which covers

backups caused by capacity issues orblockages in the main public sewer.

Ombudsman Amanda Toole of theLegal Aid Society of Southwest Ohio,who oversees MSD’s sewer backupprogram, recently submitted a reportto the U.S. District Court. In it, shesays she is “pleased with MSD’s ef-forts to attempt new strategies andbroaden their outreach” through thenew website and “satisfied with theefforts MSD is making under the SBUProgram.” Consent Decree progressreports are available on the Reportspage of the Project Groundwork web-site.

Since the inception of the SBU pro-gram, MSD has cleaned more than3,500 properties following a sewerbackup and covered nearly $8 millionin property damage. MSD has alsoprotected more than 800 propertiesfrom future backups from the publicsewer system.

On average, MSD responds tomore than 4,000 service requests ayear related to potential sewer back-ups. The vast majority of reportedsewer backups are caused by privatebuilding sewers that have failed, orare blocked by tree roots, grease orother “non-flushable” objects.

MSD is working to reduce andeliminate sewer backups in the publicsewer system through ProjectGroundwork, a multi-year initiativethat includes hundreds of sewer im-provement and stormwater controlprojects across Hamilton County.
