Say this for La Salle - not only are theLancers good, they make it easy forscoreboard clock operators.

For the second straight year, theLancers built such a big lead in the Di-vision II state championship game therunning clock rules were in effect inthe fourth quarter.

La Salle defeated Massillon Perry42-0 Friday at Oho Stadium to win itssecond consecutive Divsion II state ti-tle.

Senior Jeremy Larkin had 11 carriesfor 62 yards and two touchdown car-ries. He had three receptions for 57yards. He finished the season with 38total touchdowns.

“Every team from now on will becompared to this team,” La Salle coachJim Hilvert said. “There is no doubtabout it. What these seniors did theselast two years is unbelievable.”

Senior lineman Luke Doergerscored the game’s first touchdown byrecovering a Jarell White fumble in theend zone.

“Beyond words,” Doerger said. “Itwas insane. This entire thing is beyondbelief. What a way to go out.”

SAM GREENE/THE COMMUNITY PRESS

La Salle head coach Jim Hilvert raises the state championship trophy at midfield.

Decked out in their finest dresses,skirts, suits and bow ties, Winton Woodsfifth-grade orchestra members carriedtheir violas and violin under their arms orstruggled with string basses twice theirsize as they entered the gym.

Some of the 90-plus musicians seemedanxious at their first public performanceto a nearly full house, especially with na-tional TV crews in the room, but not Jere-my Day.

“I wasn’t too nervous,” Day said. “With90 other people, if I messed up, no one’sgoing to know.”

In fact, Day was more worried abouthow things were running throughout therest of the building. That’s because he’snot only part of the viola section, but he’salso the school principal.

Having a school principal sit alongsidethe students in class to learn instead of ob-serve isn’t typical. But when Day ap-proached Felipe Morales-Torres, directorof orchestras for Winton Woods CitySchools, about joining the orchestra, itcame as a pleasant peculiarity.

“I was surprised and excited at thesame time but I wasn’t sure if he was go-ing to stick around for the whole thing andcontinue all the way through the concertsor not,” Morales-Torres said.

But Day’s never missed one orchestraclass. Staff members treat those times asif he’s doing an in-class observation andcannot be interrupted. And, it’s too impor-tant to shrug off, Day said.

It was a summer brainstorming idea.Day wanted to improve the school’s cli-mate and wanted to teach his students avaluable lesson by example. He wanted toshow kids it was OK to get out of theircomfort zones.

“I wanted the kids to be able to see thatat any age you can pick up something to-tally new and learn it and instill thatgrowth mindset in the kids,” said Day, aformer high school athlete who admitted-ly knew nothing about music.

Like the other students, he’s startingfrom scratch. From learning how to sit ina chair properly to reading music, it’s allnew to him.

Many of the students in the class arebetter than him, but that’s part of the les-son, too he said.

The Hamilton County Recycling andSolid Waste District has honored the toprecycling communities during its 11th

annual Recycling Awards. During a Nov. 17 ceremony at the

Winton Woods Mill Race Banquet Cen-ter, Hamilton County CommissionerTodd Portune, Director of Environmen-tal Services Holly Christmann and dis-trict staff presented awards to commu-nities that stood out as recyclers.

New this year, awards were made ofreclaimed floor tile from Habitat forHumanity ReStore, and engraved atPublic Library of Cincinnati and Hamil-ton County’s MakerSpace, reflectingthe spirit of reuse.

CheviotThe City of Cheviot’s Public Works

Department picks up garbage for resi-dents, but does not offer curbside recy-cling at this time.

City residents who do want to recy-cle can drop off their recyclables inbins at the Cheviot Maintenance Ga-rage, 3729 Robb Ave., or the city’s muni-cipal parking lot at 3719 Harrison Ave.

Delhi TownshipThe Delhi Skirt Game received the

Excellence in Public Recycling Awardat this year’s ceremony.

Delhi Township resident Clyde Kob-er, vice president of the Delhi SkirtGame Committee, said this was the sec-ond year in a row recycling was avail-able at the summer Skirt Game tailgateparty and fundraising softball game.

“People were pushing us to offer re-cycling,” he said. “There’s no sensethrowing all the trash in the landfill.”

Those who attended this year’s tail-

gate party and Skirt Game helped thecommittee recycle 75 pounds of trash,more than half of which was beer cans,Kober said.

“We were able to recycle a lot of beercans,” he said.

The committee was honored to berecognized for its recycling efforts, anda bit shocked as well, he said.

“It was the last thing in the world Ithought we’d win an award for,” he said.

Throughout the year, Delhi residentshave the option of recycling through theprivate waste collection service towhich they subscribe.

The township also offers a free recy-cling drop-off site at the Delhi Town-ship Community/Senior Center at 647Neeb Road.

Forest ParkEach year the City of Forest Park re-

ceives approximately $23 for every tonof recyclables collected. In 2014, $20,119was raised and reinvested in ForestPark through these and other environ-mental programs. Approximately 966tons of materials were collected for re-cycling, representing a 15.48% diver-sion rate. These efforts resulted in: con-serving enough energy to power everyhome in Forest Park for six days and re-ducing more greenhouse gas pollutionthan if every household in Forest Parkrode their bicycles to work for fiveweeks. The efforts saved 7,740 trees

Help count winterbirds at Sharon Woods

THANKS TO GREAT PARKS OF HAMILTON COUNTY

Great Parks of Hamilton County invites the public to help spot and count birds, like thisrufous-sided towhee, at local parks.

“I didn’t want themthinking the adults had theanswers all of the time be-cause we don’t all of thetime,” Day said. “There’stimes when they can teachus things and they oftenknow better than we do.”

Fifth-grader Emily Ra-mirez, 10, said having herprincipal in orchestra haspushed her to want to bebetter.

“The first time hewalked in, I was nervousand I didn’t really knowwhat was happening,” saidRamirez, a violinist.“Then, when he startedcoming to every practice,I wasn’t really as nervousas I was before.”

Likewise, Morales-Tor-res was hesitant to treat

Day as he would the stu-dents.

“Can I actually touchhim and move his handsand set his body up like Iwould the other students?”Morales-Torres said. “Mu-sic instruction is veryhands on, so at first Iwasn’t sure if that wasfine, but I just sort of didit.”

Now, Day’s just one ofthe students. And some-times, instead of Mr. Day,he’s just Jeremy.

“One of the importantthings is that they seesomeone supports theirchoice for music, and thatsomeone can do music andsports, and there are manyparts to a person,” Mo-rales-Torres said. “That’s

what a role model lookslike.”

It’s not just Day, howev-er, supporting the musicprograms at the school.

“Our district, our com-munity appreciates thearts,” Day said. “You won’tsee us cutting music pro-grams because we reallyfeel strongly that it con-nects to the academicpiece.”

Sixty percent of the 520fifth- and sixth-grade stu-dents at Winton Woods In-termediate are involved inmusic, compared with 37percent last year. Fiveyear ago, only 30 studetnswere in orchestra. The dis-trict’s focus on musicearned Winton Woods oneof the 2015 Best Communi-

ties for Music Educationby the National Associa-tion of Music Merchants.

To help kids who can’tafford the instruments,the district pitches in.

“Where my colleaguesin other districts are fac-ing cuts or having to fightfor budget support in gen-eral, I’m lucky to be work-ing in a place where we areencouraging students notonly verbally but alsophysically, and you have aprincipal in the classroom.It’s like, holy cow, we areputting our money whereour mouth is,” said Mo-rales-Torres.

Malaki Fryman, a fifthgrade bass player, isamong the students usinga district instrument. Hisgrandmother, Mona How-ard, is living on a fixed in-come and raising hergrandchildren by herself.She said although Malaki,10, wanted to participate,she couldn’t afford it.

“It just broke myheart,” Howard saidthrough tears.

Then the districtstepped in.

“He loves it and I was sothrilled he could be a partof this,” Howard said. “Hewouldn’t have had the op-portunity otherwise.”

The goal is to have 100percent student participa-tion in music. With thebacking of the community,the district, Morales-Tor-res and Day, it’s possible.

Our Lady of Grace School» Boy Scout Pack 660, a

group of fifth-grade boys fromOur Lady of Grace CatholicSchool, led their classmates in aflag retirement ceremony. Thisis a special honor entrusted tothe Boy Scouts and Pack 660.This event came as a result ofthe Veteran's Day week cele-brations and the fifth-gradereading a correlating story,“Hold the Flag High” by Cather-ine Clinton.

The fifth-grade has beenlearning all about the AmericanFlag, from its history, symbol-ism, and what it means to somany Americans. Den leadersJason and Debbie Mattinglygave a presentation about theflag before the ceremony be-gan outside Our Lady of GraceCatholic School.

Witnessing and participat-ing in a flag retirement ceremo-ny was an excellent way to dem-onstrate the dignified way theflag is required to be retiredwhen it is no longer in service.Every fifth-grade student rev-erently added a piece to the firewhile the troop saluted the re-tiring flag.

Jason Mattingly said duringthe ceremony: “A flag ceases tobe a flag when it is cut intopieces. We cut the flag into fourpieces: three red and whitestriped banners and the bluestar field. We leave the bluefield intact because no oneshould ever let the union be bro-ken.”

Winton WoodsIntermediate School

» Add curling to the list ofnew sports being introduced tostudents in the Winton WoodsSchool District.

Donald Schutte, math teach-er at the intermediate school, isin his second after-school ses-sion of teaching the sport tofifth- and sixth-grade students.

“We start each meeting withteaching and information aboutcurling, we learn a new shot,and then we practice that shot,”Schuttesaid. “Most of our timeis spent on games and skillschallenges.”

Curling is a sport related toshuffleboard where playersslide stones toward a targetarea, which is segmented intofour concentric circles. WWISphysical education teacherCarl Paff introduced the sportto students in gym class at thebeginning of the school year, tobuild a foundation of knowl-edge about curling and gener-ate interest in the club.

“Mr. Paff and Mr. Schuttewanted to get the kids exposedto curling on a whole school lev-el first to see what the interestwould be for a club,” PrincipalJeremy Day said. The interestwas high as almost 20 studentssigned up for the first five-week session and another 20 forthe second.

By the fourth week of in-struction, students were mak-ing shots like a hit and stay,which requires the thrower toremove a rock from the button,while keeping the thrown stonewithin the rings. They were alsolearning from Schutte that, “Ifit’s a bad shot, throwing it harddoesn’t make it a good shot.” Heinstructed students to use justenough force to knock their op-ponent’s stones out of the house.

Schutte said the bonus to thefun students were having wasthat they were also using funda-mental math skills to maketheir shots.

“Math and science are deep-ly imbedded in the sport of curl-ing,” he said. “Getting the stu-dents involved in curling notonly helps them apply theseskills, but also gives them an op-portunity to try a sport withwhich many adults aren’t even

familiar.”

Winton Woods MiddleSchool

» Anna Wilson, reading andlanguage arts teacher at Winton

Woods MiddleSchool, is the dis-trict’s SkylineTeacher of theMonth for No-vember.

PrincipalDoug Sanker hasobserved Wilsonin her classroomand worked withher as she coor-

dinated some of the school’smajor events, and he’s alwayswalked away impressed.

“Ms. Wilson is a deservingrecipient of this award,” hesaid. “She’s taken on leadershiproles in the school and was in-strumental in planning our fallovernighter. Her students havea sense of anticipation and anexcitement about what learn-ing activity they will do next.Her classroom activities are al-ways targeted, engaging andsometimes surprising.”

Sanker said Wilson’s stu-dents discuss and write aboutbig topics, like bullying, being apeacemaker, and how to engagewith the world. “Her readingselections are relevant to stu-dent’s lives,” he said. “Her stu-dents employ Socratic Seminar,and they take ownership oftheir learning.

“Ms. Wilson has embracedour International StudiesSchool Network initiative, andshe and her colleagues are plan-ning a study of generosity andour role as agents of change.This will be done through thelens of the novel, A ChristmasCarol. Finally the unit will cul-minate in a fundraiser to pur-chase a water purification sys-tem for a village in Africa.”

“Ms. Wilson also leads our‘sunshine’ effort to encouragestaff and students alike,” Sank-er said. “She is always punctual,positive and upbeat.”

The Skyline Teacher of theMonth Award is sponsored bythe Forest Park Skyline, a busi-ness partner of Winton WoodsCity Schools. Teachers honoredreceive a $30 Skyline gift card.

Winton Woods Schools» Anthony G. Smith, super-

intendent of Winton Woods CitySchools, believes in thinkingglobally and acting locally.

It was a combination of thisvision and the success of thedistrict’s Academy of GlobalStudies that led to an invitation

for Smith tospeak at the 60thannual OhioSchool BoardsAssociation Cap-ital Conferenceand Trade Showabout the AGSprogram andcommunity part-

nerships. AGS is the only schoolin the country to incorporatethe New Tech model and Inter-

national Studies School Net-work.

“Winton Woods City Schoolshas found that specialized pro-grams like AGS, in combinationwith community partnerships,have been effective in address-ing the unique needs of urbanstudents,” Smith said. “It wasan honor to share what we’velearned with my fellow educa-tors.”

Out of 613 districts in Ohio,

Winton Woods City Schools isthe only one with the unique de-mographic characteristics of:86 percent minority studentbody; 15 percent of studentsspeak English as a second lan-guage; 16 percent students withdisabilities, and 72 percent ofstudents on the free and re-duced lunch program (up from22 percent in 2003).

“No matter the circum-stances, our goal is ensuring allstudents achieve their highestpotential,” Smith said. “Ourbusiness and community part-ners have come alongside us inachieving that goal by partici-pating in tutoring programs in-side and outside of our build-ings and by creating uniqueeducational opportunities forour students, like the fly fishingclasses that were offered thispast summer.”

At the conference, Smithused his session to describe thesuccess of the AGS program,which “has led to the expansionof project-based learningthroughout the entire school,powered by the New Tech Net-work,” he said. “Also beginningthis year, all of our high schoolstudents are equipped with lap-top or Chromebook computers,and we have expanded thesesame ISSN practices to ourmiddle school students.”

» Stan Townsend must knowthere’s a lot of truth to the say-ing, “The quickest way to a per-son’s heart is through theirstomach.”

Townsend, who is the ownerand operator of the Forest ParkSkyline, has donated food – andperformed many other acts ofkindness – that have touchedthe hearts of students, staff andfamilies throughout WintonWoods City Schools for manyyears. Townsend was honoredwith the district’s October Com-munity Spirit Award at the Oc-tober board of education meet-ing.

“Stan Townsend and histeam have forged a generouspartnership with our schools,”Superintendent Anthony G.Smith said. “This year the For-est Park Skyline is sponsoringthe district’s Teacher of theMonth and Student of theMonth recognitions. These twoawards honor the hard work ofour staff members and studentathletes, give them media rec-ognition, and include a gift cardto the restaurant.”

Over the years, the ForestPark Skyline has donated nu-merous gift cards to students asrewards during OGT test weekand last year stepped forwardas the first business partner tohost the district’s monthly“Conversation with the Super-intendent,” providing food forthose attending. The companyalso joined a team of businesspartners to make sure therewas a state-of-the-art score-board installed when the dis-trict’s new stadium was built.

Smith said he appreciatesthat people will most likely seea Winton Woods High Schoolstudent working when theywalk into Townsend’s restau-rant. “That’s because hiring ourkids has always been a priori-ty,” he added. “The district isgrateful for this ongoing part-nership and is happy to presentMr. Stan Townsend and the For-est Park Skyline with the Octo-ber Community Spirit Award.”

DECEMBER 9, 2015 • HILLTOP PRESS • 7ANEWS

I should practice what I preach. Youknow how I’m always telling you at thebeginning of the holiday season to stock upon staples, like sugar, butter, flour, etc.Well, guess what I ran out of today? Allthree!

I had barely enough brown sugar andbutter to make yet another test recipe ofthe Williams Sonoma hot fudge chocolatesauce that I’ve been asked to clone.

In my defense, though, I started theseason out with what I thought was plenty,but with all the classes, presentations and plainold fun cooking for family and friends, I did runout.

But that’s OK. A trip to the grocery was amuch needed break from the kitchen.

Crunchy white peppermint barkSee the bark in the photo? I have that

recipe, along with more good bark recipeson my Abouteating.com site.

Tip from Rita’s kitchen: Sticky,stuck lids

To avoid this on jars of honey, corn syr-up, etc., spray the inside of the lid and alsothe outside rim of the jar.

Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herbalist,educator, Jungle Jim’s Eastgate culinary profes-sional and author. Find her blog online atAbouteating.com. Email her [email protected] with “Rita’skitchen” in the subject line.

Rita’s clone of Williams Sonoma’s hot fudgesauce

Oh my gosh, I think I nailed it! Talk about a nice gift fromthe kitchen, not to mention easy and a lot less expensive thanstore bought. Plus the love you put into this is priceless.

For Marcia in Deer Park and Natalie in Indian Hill. This is asclose as I can get to their hot fudge sauce. Wms Sonoma’s doesn’thave corn syrup in theirs, but in order to get the consistency andshine I wanted, I added some. Using a high quality chocolate baris important. Don’t use chocolate chips. This doubles easily andlooks as good as it tastes.

2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, good quality1/3 cup whipping cream5 tablespoons light corn syrup8 oz bittersweet chocolate bar, chopped2-1/2 tablespoons salted butter (if using unsalted, add a

pinch of salt)3 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar

In a heavy saucepan, stir the cocoa powder and whippingcream until smooth. Then turn heat to medium and add rest ofingredients. As it cooks, stir constantly with a whisk. When it startto hit a gentle bubbling boil all over, let it alone and continue tocook like that for 5 minutes. This allows the flavors to marry andproduces a depth of flavor found in hot fudge. Let it cool, andstore, covered in frig. It will get too firm to pour, so warm it gent-ly before using.

Rita’s clone of Williams Sonoma’s peppermintfudge sauce

OK so they don’t carry this anymore but when they did, Icouldn’t get enough of it. So what I did was made another batchof fudge sauce and added a teaspoon of pure peppermint extractafter I pulled it from the stove. All I’ll say is I ate way too muchstraight from the pan.

Crockpot bourbon glazed salami

From Kim, a member of my recipe group. She’s a down-towner, and said, “This was another Thanksgiving recipe that wasgone in minutes.” So, you can’t get a better recommendationthan that. Kim usually buys whole kosher salami for this, since shefinds that works best. What an unusual appetizer for a holidaygathering!

Large whole salami 1 cup apricot preserves1/2 cup maple syrup2 tablespoons bourbon

Slice the salami – about one inch. Then cut each slice intoquarters. (You want bite size piece to fit on a toothpick) Put intocrock-pot. Combine the other three ingredients together. Poorover salami and mix together so every piece is covered. Cover andcook on low for 6 hours. Put on a plate with toothpicks.

Tip: Substitute kielbasa for the salami if you prefer.

There are few neighbor-hoods where one can reel incatfish, photograph greatblue herons, watch an eight-point buck graze and picnicunder century-old oaks. It’s aquality of life in an oasis resi-dents covet.

It’s one reason we boughtour home in Finneytown,which is in Springfield Town-ship. The township bought 46acres of the former WarderNursery (near North Bendand Winton roads) for$720,000 on the condition thatit was to be a park which thecommunity, neighboringschools and churches ap-plauded.

How times have changed.

Imagine theoaks saweddown, mead-ows bull-dozed, morecongestion onWinton andNorth Bend.Imagine guyswith Bud-weisers on abar deck over-

looking nearby schools andchurches.

It’s about tax revenue. Thestate of Ohio balanced itsbudget on the backs of localgovernments. The argumentby our trustees and the town-ship administration is “weneed the money.” Oh, and it

will enhance the value of yourhome. When did restaurants,medical offices and apart-ments raise the value of ahome? A green park not acommercial park was alsosupposed to raise the value ofour homes.

Their response? Trust us.We’ll leave some green space.Challenge is, when a devel-oper spends millions on sew-ers, gas lines, electric, etc.,they have to get back bangfor their buck. They will nothave the community’s in-terest in mind. We’ve seenthis over and over.

Despite the promise ofbike trails what if the CEO ofa high-tech firm walks into

the township administrationbuilding years later and asksfor a few green space acresfor their new offices thatwould reap more tax reve-nue? Would our trustees takethe offer? The record speaksfor itself.

To get the developer andbusinesses to invest they willinsist on tax abatements andother freebees, negating thewhole purpose of this propos-al. At our nearest shoppingmall, Brentwood Plaza, thereare always vacancies.

There is persistent beliefin America that more andbigger is better. That’s howour country has been devel-oped, often to the detriment

of quality of life. Sometimesless is more. It’s the reasonmany of us keep moving fur-ther and further away. Everwatch a box turtle lay eggs?

To see photos, visit theKeep Warder Wild page onFacebook.

Springfield Townshiptrustees will have a meetingto discuss the Warder parkproposal at 7 p.m. Monday,Dec. 14, in the Grove BanquetHall behind the townshipadministration building, 9150Winton Road.

opportunityand far-awayplaces.

To thesouth par-allel rowsof streetlampsglowing inthe Decem-ber nightconverged

on a brilliantly lighted twostory depot, the town’sbeacon to holiday trav-elers. The station’s steelgray double doors adornedwith twin holly wreathswelcomed all comers asthey trudged up a staircasethat led them from thedamp frosty air into thebrightly lit waiting room.

Inside, a line hadformed in front of the openticket window where a manwearing wire rimmedglasses collected moneyand disbursed tickets tovarious northern destina-tions. Dressed in a blackwoolen coat and red headscarf a grandmother qui-etly sat next to her grand-son whose wide eyes wereabsorbing the movementsof everyone in sight.

Outside, snow lined theeaves of the peaked roofssuspended above the threedimly illuminated plat-

forms that separated thetracks. Low hanging cloudsthat looked like angel hairon a Christmas tree pro-duced large flakes of wetsnow that danced throughthe air as they fell towardthe frozen rails below.

Somewhere in the dis-tance two long, one shortand another long muffledwhistles blared from theFlamingo’s engine as itapproached a rail crossinga half mile south of its nextstop. Through the dartingsnowflakes one could see aspot of light appear slight-ly above the point wherethe two rails seemed tomeet. As the beam grewlarger, a line of peopleparaded from the warmthof the station’s waitingroom to the slab of con-crete that bordered tracknumber five.

Suddenly, the royal blueand yellow striped dualengines with the familiarL&N red crest emblazonedon their front cowlingsroared past the south endof the platform. One lowwhistle signaled the train’sarrival, while the hissing ofair, and the shriek of steelagainst steel pierced thestillness of the evening astrain number 18 came to ascreeching stop. The con-ductor and flagman attiredin their customary goldbuttoned overcoats andcaps placed portable dim-pled steps at the foot of theentrance to two heavyweight blue passengercoaches.

After the last passengerdetrained the conductorand flagman reversed theirroutines to assist thosetraveling northbound intothe half empty coaches.Meanwhile, the ticketagent punctured a briefquiet moment with an an-nouncement of the train’simpending departure.

As the front engine’sheadlight searched north-ward through the swirlingflakes of snow, everyonehad vacated the platformexcept the conductor whostoically stood with his lefthand raised toward theengine. “All aboard!” hecried. The engineer blewthe whistle twice, releasedthe air brakes and nudgedthe throttle forward. Witheach wheel turning in uni-son, the train once againcame to life, while a staratop the town’s water tow-er shined in the distance.

When the faintly lightedpassenger cars crossed theoverpass just north of thestation, one could see thegrandmother and grandsonwaving good-bye to a placeknown as home. Just be-fore the train disappearedinto the snow coverednight, the twin red lanternsanchored to the last coachblinked as if to say, “And toall a good night!”

Happy holidays.Noel Taylor is a former

Dec. 2 questionWhat is your favorite Christmas

song? Which artist’s version doyou prefer?

"’Oh Holy Night’ captures theessence of Christmas. Since Isaw Sarah Brightman in a liveperformance here in Cincinnati,no other woman's voice carriesanything like the power andrange she does. This song re-quires both power and emotion.We lost the last incredible tenorwith the death of Mario Lanza,who did the best male version ofthe song. Charlotte Church alsohas enough power for the songand, for those who don't care forthe ‘operatic’ quality of the othertwo, she can make you weep.”

D.B.

“The seasonal, holiday song Ilove is ‘Fairytale of New York’by the Pogues, with Shane Mac-Gowan and Kristy MacColl onvocals. The tune is cinematic inscope with a humorous poignan-cy, keeping it fresh for me yearto year.”

C.S.

“Frankly, none of them. If itexisted, I suppose I would reallyenjoy ‘Christmas is Over’ by thegroup Finally. I love the reli-gious meanings behind Christ-mas and the fact that it is a greatexcuse for families to reconnect,but the commercial side ofChristmas has so overwhelmedeverything about the season andthe non-stop commercials on TV,radio and the Internet make mewant to vomit. I know I am in avery small minority, but theChristmas we celebrate today isa far cry from the one 2015 yearsago. I am, however, a staunchbeliever that this time of theyear must be called Christmasand not the Holiday Season.”

M.J.F.

“My favorite Christmas songis a duet by Bing Crosby & DavidBowie – “Peace on Earth/LittleDrummer Boy” from Bing’s 1977Christmas TV show. Crosby andBowie were two total oppositesinging talents harmonizing twogreat classic holiday songs. Thisduet can be seen and heard onYouTube. Now if only the rest ofthe world could harmonize forthe holidays then there might besome real peace on earth. GoFigure!”

FOREST PARK — WintonWoods is hungry to take thenext step on the mats this sea-son. The Warriors have someexperienced grapplers back inthe lineup, led by junior heavy-weight Jerron Cage, who was asectional champion last seasonin his first year wrestling. Cageis verbally committed to playfootball at Ohio State.

The Warriors got a big boostwhen Cornell Beachem andDarrell Noble both wrestled atthe Fargo Nationals in the sum-mer.

“Darrell and Cornell workhard in the spring and summerand were able to make teamOhio and went out to Fargo,”said third-year coach JasonDean. “Cornell actually won sixmatches and Darrell won three.Last year was Darrell’s firstyear ever wrestling.”

The offseason experiencewill surely help. Beachem is asophomore at 145 pounds and areturning district qualifier. No-ble is a senior at 195.

Sophomore Darius Lovetttransfered in and he’ll help outin the 106 and 113 weight class-es. Junior 126-pounder JamirThompson is a three-year wres-tler who won 19 matches lastseason.

Dean said junior Max Parks“could surprise some people” at182 pounds. Parks didn’t startwrestling until the end of lastseason, but he’s put in the work,said Dean.

Senior James Robinson is areturning starter at 132 or 138,and Dean said he won 16 match-es last year.

“The potential that they haveif they work hard enough andpush themselves,” said Dean. “Isee a lot of talent. If you put thetalent together with hard workthey can do great things.”

On Dec. 9 Winton Woodstravels to Talawanda for a dual.The Warriors will be at NorthCollege Hill’s Invitational onDec. 12.

The start of Tom Wynn’s ca-reer coaching St. Xavier wres-tling has been unforgettable. InWynn’s first two seasons, theBombers made history withback-to-back undefeated statechampions.

Joe Heyob, who now wres-tles at Penn, went unbeaten in2013-14. Cole Jones, who’s play-ing football and wrestling atWest Point, did the unthinkablewhen he duplicated Heyob’sseason in 2014-15.

“It’s gonna be hard” to makeit three in row, Wynn said. Jonesand Heyob – what set themapart – Wynn said, was a tena-cious attitude and belief:“You’ve got to hate to lose morethan you like to win.”

At this point in the fresh sea-son, with football players stillmaking their way into the room,Wynn said his guys are still insearch of the Jones/Heyob for-mula.

“It could happen with one ofthese guys this season,” Wynnsaid in regard to one of his wres-tlers finding a championshipmentality and work ethic seem-ingly required in every greatgrappler.

The Bombers, ranked No. 13in The Enquirer Division I pre-

season coaches’ poll, have sev-en returning starters. Senior120-pounder Sam Kreider andsenior 126-pounder Nick Falkeare both back after reaching thedistrict tournament last year.Wynn said Kreider finishedfifth at districts, one spot awayfrom making it to state.

Senior Nick Damico returnsand he’ll wrestle either 145 or152. Junior Connor Yauss is inthe same boat as Damico interms of weight classes. Sopho-more Andy Yauss will be theBombers’ 113-pounder.

Sophomore Jack Heyob,Joe’s younger brother, is a re-turning starter at 182 pounds.Senior Michael Gerbus, anotherreturning starter and footballplayer, looks to fill 220 pounds,vacated by Cole Jones.

“They want to learn the sportof wrestling which is really funthis year,” Wynn said. “They’rebecoming more passionateabout the sport; that makes it in-teresting. Then you have a goodvibe in the room everyday.”

On Dec. 8, St. Xavier hostsElder in a dual match, beforethe Bombers travel to Masonfor a dual Dec. 9.

Eight consecutive MiamiValley Conference wrestlingchampionships have North Col-lege Hill hungry for more. TheTrojans have a deep, experi-enced lineup returning this sea-son, said coach Tim Sies, now inhis 11th season as head coach.

Senior Mekhi Jones is theteam leader. Jones, a 138-poun-der, is a returning district quali-fier and the defending MVCchamp at his weight. Jones isalso 15 wins away from 100 forhis career.

“Besides doing well on themat, Mekhi is extremelysmart,” said Sies. “Nothing un-der an A in the classroom. He’slooking at schools like MIT(Massachusetts Institute of

Technology) and Stanford, yethe still works hard in practice.He’s not a huge vocal leader buthe sets an example. He holdsdown a job. I really like that myyoung guys are coming up un-der a kid like him.”

Sophomore Willie Byrd (113),sophomore Dakota Whaley(120), sophomore Elijah Gordon(145) and senior Ki’Eran Friend(152) are all returning startersand district qualifiers.

Sophomore Dequan Adams

(160) returns after winning anMVC title last season. SeniorGreg Rader (182) was a districtalternate and MVC champ lastseason as well. Sophomores Ka-meron Hughes (220) and JalenDavis-Thompson (195) are alsoreturning starters.

“I’m excited about the youthmixed in with really good seniorleaders, especially Mekhi,” saidSies. “We have a lot of sopho-mores on the team, I’m excited Ihave three more years with the

and they get to learn and devel-op.”

The North College Hill Invi-tational is Dec. 12.

Roger Bacon will only filleight weight classes this wres-tling season. But much like lastseason, there’s more to wres-tling than a team’s dual record.Working together, learning theins and outs of competition areequally important to fourth-year coach Chris Harrison.

Last year the Spartans sentKevin Dinh, who graduated inthe spring, through to the dis-trict tournament. He got therebecause he was pushed by Har-rison and the rest of his team-mates.

That’s what Harrison is hop-ing for again this season.

Leading the way for the Spar-tans will be senior co-captainsBrian Stentz and Nick van derWerff. Harrison said both arefour-year wrestlers. Stentzcompetes at 145 pounds, van derWerff at 195 or 182.

Sophomore George Vieth,the only freshman on the teamlast season, returns at 138pounds. Junior Thomas Dalid isa returning starter at 285. Ju-nior Zac Baur started last yearand should be at either 182 or170 this year.

Harrison said of Baur, “Weuse him as an example. He cameto us as a freshman and reallytook a beating, only won twomatches, but he never backeddown from anything. We gavehim the Spartan spirit award. Ithink he’ll be solid this year.”

A few freshman are expect-ed to contribute this season,said Harrison.

“We have kids who enjoy thesport,” said Harrison. “They’rehaving a good time doing it.They’re anxious to learn things.I just wish I had more time topractice with them in betweencompetitions. They all want toget in there and wrestle as muchas they can.”

The Spartans have theirhome invitational on Dec. 12against eight other teams.

Mount Healthy won’t haveits most accomplished wres-tlers from last season in Ke-eryon Deal, Brian Pringle andDanny Johnson. Deal and Dan-ny Johnson were district quali-fiers last season.

This year, the Owls mighthave to rely on the likes of Tobi-as Froehlich, Robert Johnson,Kerwin Heard and Kevin Coes.

Froehlich was second-teamall-Southwest Ohio Conferencelast season and was runner-upat 152 pounds in the conferencetournament.

Robert Johnson, Heard andCoes all wrestled in sectionals.

The Owls are coached by JoeDixon.

The numbers are up for Ai-ken wrestling, but the Falconsare a young group still learningthe sport from first-year coachTristan Young.

Aiken only has one senior inJose Garcia, a three-year wres-tler at 145 pounds. The other re-turning starters for Aiken arejuniors Nikquel Nevins (160)and Gianni Simmons (132).

Young said he’s also been im-pressed by transfer Elijah Kir-by, as well as two football stand-outs in junior Derrick Jones and

A legendary part of NorthCollege Hill died Thursday.

Bruce Baarendse was 55years old. North College Hillwill never be the same, but thestory Coach B, as he was affec-tionately known, gave the Tro-jans is worth more than gold.

And while Coach B likelywould have told it better, this ishis story, kept alive by the peo-ple still here, still in love with aman they’ll never forget.

He was the Trojans’ champi-on. For the last 32 years, Baa-rendse, a 1978 NCH graduate,was a teacher, coach, nicknamesupplier, leader, storyteller, fa-ther figure, mentor and residentgood-guy at his alma mater.

“He is NCH,” said ShannonMinor, a teacher and head boysbasketball coach at NCH. “Hewas a gentle giant … just such aneasy guy to talk to. Every kid,and I’m telling you every kidliked Coach B.”

Once upon a time, a 6-foot-5Baarendse was one of the great-est athletes NCH had ever seen.He earned 11 varsity letters as athree-sport star in football, bas-ketball and baseball. He playedfootball for the University ofCincinnati and it wasn’t long be-fore he returned to the place andthe people he clearly loved.NCH inducted him into its Hallof Fame in 1986.

“You don’t meet too manypositive people about every-thing,” said Nathaniel Snow, a13-year assistant football coachunder Baarendse. “He was posi-tive. He had a very optimisticlook on everything. He alwaystried to find the good in peopleand situations. A good familyman, loved his wife (Nancy),loved his children (Steven andChristine).

“He just loved life. He lovedpeople.”

He was a guide, an exampleof how to live. His reach extend-ed beyond athletics, into aca-demics and life. He listened andhe cared.

“He is the reason I became ateacher,” said Minor. “Hebrought me back two years ago… for me being able to workwith him these last two years,that was a dream. He was morethan a teacher and a coach, hewas a friend.”

The North College Hill CitySchool District rememberedCoach B on its website with anentry entitled “Gone but willnever be forgotten.”

All you needed was five min-utes – a conversation – to see aheart heaped in gold, a personal-ity laced with love and under-stand why he meant so much toso many people.

It’s hard to quantify a per-son’s worth or how loved theywere. There’s no metric that canmeasure a man like Bruce.

Rick Kates graduated fromNCH in 1988, and while there hesaid Baarendse “was my headfootball coach, head baseballcoach, assistant basketballcoach, health teacher and gymteacher.”

Kates said, “If you talk topeople about Bruce you will getso many different stories … toomany to even really discuss.Bruce had a personality biggerthan life itself. He never met astranger. He just made every-body feel special in his own way.

“After I graduated Bruce be-came a very good friend ofmine. When I got married hewas in my wedding. My days inhigh school Bruce was more of afather figure to me. He wasthere to discipline me when Ineeded it, and there with a hugwhen I needed that as well. I hadwhat I considered a very specialrelationship with him, but whenI think about it there’s probablyhundreds, maybe thousands ofkids who had the same relation-ship with him.”

His personality came out inwhat Minor dubbed “B-isms,things he said: ‘Don’t worryabout the horse being blind, justload the wagon.’”

Next fall, a new freshmanclass will walk into North Col-lege Hill High School and Baa-rendse won’t be there.

“It’s a shame to think aboutbecause those kids will neverknow him and that’s tough toswallow,” said Kates. “They willnot know what they missed.”

But Coach B’s only a storyaway, and there are literallythousands of people with tales ofa big guy with an even biggerheart.

“I’m going to miss his laugh,”Kates said. “I’m going to missthe stories. I’m going to missknowing and being friends withthe most genuine person I’veever met. Bruce is North Col-lege Hill and North College Hillis Bruce. He’ll be rememberedforever, no question.”

Funeral arrangements arestill pending, but Minor saidconsidering all the people heloved and loved him, “theamount of people who are goingto be there, it will be unreal.”

sophomore Keoni Jones. “I think it’s kind of the same

attitude that we took for foot-ball,” said Young, who’s also afootball coach at Aiken. “We’reyoung, only had four seniors onthe football team. I’ve got onesenior wrestler. I like the factthat we’re young and the kidsare buying in already.”

Young also said the Falconsgot some help from one of theirneighbors in preparation forthe season.

“St. X found out that wedidn’t have a wrestling room tostart out so they offered all mykids a spot to come over anduse their extra room,” saidYoung. “They were more thanwilling to help us.”

The Falcons are back wres-tling in their building andworking hard. Aiken has two

big holiday tournaments, oneat Walnut Hills the day afterChristmas and again at Nor-wood on Jan. 2.

The wrestling room at LaSalle is packed with potential.Mostly in the form of young-sters, but time will tell if poten-tial turns into touching thatelusive podium at state.

The Lancers, tied for No. 6in The Enquirer Division I pre-season coaches’ poll, have tworeturning state qualifiers in ju-niors Corey Shie and EricBeck.

Shie (132 pounds) is a two-time state qualifier and first-team selection in the GreaterCatholic League South. Beck(138) was second-team all-GCLSouth last year.

Also returning to startingroles are senior Jared Thie-mann (120), a district qualifierlast year, junior Hunter Pur-due (145), who missed all lastseason due to injury, and soph-omore Blake Wilson (160), an-

other district qualifier. The Lancers have experi-

ence and they also have a big,talented freshman class thatshould have “five or six” guysstarting on varsity, said eighth-year coach Avery Zerkle.

“We have one of our biggestteams in a few years here with35 guys on the roster,” said Zer-kle. “A little bit of maturity inthe upperclassmen and theseyounger guys coming in will beexciting to see how they do.”

The next step for La Salle isa better postseason. Zerklesaid the Lancers haven’t wres-tled their best at season’s end.

“We have to have a goodpostseason,” said Zerkle. “Wehad a great season (last year)but our postseason didn’t goquite the way we wanted it to.”

La Salle travels to Edge-wood on Dec. 12, and on Jan. 8La Salle hosts Lakota West,Deer Park and Roger Bacon onits seniors and also alumni re-union night.

COLUMBUS – The Lancersroll deep yet again.

The La Salle football teamcaptured its second straightDivision II state title with a42-0 win over Massillon PerryFriday night in front of 11,168at Ohio Stadium.

With the state title Fridaynight, La Salle is the first areateam in Ohio to win back-to-back state football titles sinceMoeller (2012 and ’13).

La Salle coach Jim Hilvertspoke all season about the sen-iors leaving a legacy. The Lanc-ers did just that with a com-pleted journey on a cold Fridaynight at Ohio Stadium.

La Salle has 24 seniors, in-cluding 22 that were on the2014 state championship team.

The Lancers were hungryfor another ring. It was evidentall week.

“My pregame speech wasall about completing the mis-sion and they completed themission. We talked about it get-ting it right off the bat. Don’twait around, you go get it andtake it,” Hilvert said.

“I think our kids did it. Theyset the tempo – driving downthe field and getting that quicktouchdown. Defensively, get-ting our first shutout in thestate championship gameagainst Mr. Ohio says volumesabout these kids. Obviously thechallenge and the chip theyhad on their shoulder from thisweek. We talked about it. Wewon a state championship –that’s what we want.”

La Salle (13-2) joined elitecompany with the school’s sec-ond state football title.

La Salle is the third DivisionII program since to win back-to-back state titles since theOhio High School Athletic As-sociation went to five divisionsin 1980. The others include Ak-ron Buchtel (1987 and ’88) andSt. Marys Memorial (1992 and’93).

“This year’s team hasbrought a great sense of prideto the community,” La Salleathletic director Dan Flynnsaid earlier this week.

“Our student body, alongwith our parents, alumni, andstaff has added to the energy ofthe program each and everyFriday night this fall. Our goaland vision has pointed towardbuilding a program of this cali-ber for decades. We are nowcompeting at a championship

level and our expectation is tocontinue this level of successfor years to come.”

The Lancers wasted littletime on their opening drive af-ter starting at their own 36-yard line after Perry won thetoss and deferred.

La Salle senior runningback Jeremy Larkin, who isverbally committed to the Uni-versity of Cincinnati, had re-ceptions of 28 and 24 yards onthe second and third plays ofthe opening drive, respective-ly.

The Lancers went for it onfourth-and-goal and senior of-fensive lineman Luke Doerger(Toledo commit) fell on juniorJarell White’s fumble in theend zone to give the Lancersthe touchdown. Senior DrueChrisman added the extrapoint and La Salle led 7-0 at the8:24 mark. That completed a 7-play, 64-yard drive that took3:36.

Perry punted on its firstpossession but the Pantherspicked off La Salle near theend zone on the Lancers’ sec-ond drive.

Perry saw its next drivestall and the Panthers’ errantpunt attempt was recovered byLa Salle senior defensive line-man John Willcox, who re-turned it 32 yards to the Perry11.

The Lancers took advan-tage of the turnover two playslater when Larkin scored on a7-yard touchdown run over leftguard to help give the Lancersa 14-0 lead with 1:49 left in thesecond quarter.

Larkin scored his secondrushing touchdown on a 10-yard carry over left end to helpgive the Lancers a 21-0 with8:29 left in the second quarter.Chrisman, an Ohio State com-

mit, made his third extra pointof the night.

The Lancers’ defense heldfirm late in the second quarterafter Perry threw an incomple-tion in the end zone with 21sec-onds left.

La Salle held a 21-0 lead athalftime.

Perry’s first drive stalled inthe third quarter and La Sallefreshman Jared Uran blockedthe Panthers’ punt to give LaSalle the ball at the Perry 27.

Six plays later, senior quar-terback Nick Watson foundWhite for a 9-yard touchdownpass connection and Chrismanadded the extra point to givethe Lancers a 28-0 lead with6:46 left in the third quarter.

That completed a 6-play, 27-yard drive that took 2:41.

Watson added a 32-yardtouchdown run with 8:59 left inthe fourth quarter and Chris-man added the extra point togive the Lancers a 35-0 leadwith 8:59 left in the fourthquarter.

Brent Cooper, a business owner

from northern Kentucky, said not

only are businesses prospering

across the Ohio River in Cincinnati

with a smoke-free law, but that the

pubs in Ireland haven’t shut down

since the country put a ban on

smoking in the workplace 10 years

ago.Many legislators conferred that

public smoking was indefensible in

Kentucky given the state’s bad

health ratings compared to other

states throughout the U.S.

According to testimony from

Wayne Meriwether, CEO of Twin

Lakes Regional Medical Center,

second-hand smoke is just as dan-

gerous for those that don’t smoke.

The success of CyberMonday shows the pop-ularity of the Internetwhen it comes to bar-gain shopping. If you’rethinking of buying aused car online, youneed to be very careful.

Abbie Denen, of An-derson Township, saysher husband had beenlooking online for a usedtruck to pull a trailerfrom their home. Denensays, “He found one onCraigslist for $2,000,which was a 2005 DodgeRam 1500.”

Denen was looking atthe Cincinnati Craigslistwebsite and texted theseller that he was in-terested. He then re-ceived quite a storyfrom the seller.

“She was from theLebanon area and hadrecently been widowed.The truck was paid offand had 140,000 miles onit. She couldn’t keep it, itwas giving her badmemories,” Denen said.

Unfortunately, themore they got involvedtrying to buy the truckthe more complicated it.It turns out the truckwasn’t nearby in Leba-non – it was out in Utah.But remember, the sell-er advertised the vehi-cle on the CincinnatiCraigslist website eventhough its thousands ofmiles away.

To try to keep theDenens interested, theseller claimed the vehi-cle came with an ebayBuyer Protection Plan.In addition, Denen says,“The shipping costwould be hers. If some-thing was wrong withthe truck and we didn’tlike it we could send itback to her. She wouldpay the return shippingcosts.”

How did the sellerwant to be paid? Thesame way many scam-mers are operatingthese days. The scam-mer wanted them to goto a drug store, depositthe money on a prepaid

debit cardand thenemail apicture ofthe num-bers onthe backof thecard. Thesellercould thenstrip the

$2,000 from that debitcard.

Denen says they gotsuspicious of the dealwhen they couldn’t findany mention of the vehi-cle on ebay Motors web-site. She called ebaydirectly and says, “Theysaid if anyone offersyou anything from anoutside entity it’s notreal -- and Craigslist isan outside entity.”

The Denens stoppingcommunicating withthose scammers and saythey want to warn ev-eryone.

“They’re out there.They’re still puttingthings out there sayingthey’ll offer you an ebaybuyer protection plan.That’s when you shouldrun.”

Bottom line; neverbuy a vehicle sight-unseen. Always get aused vehicle checkedout by an ASE certifiedmechanic before buyingso you know everythingthat’s wrong with it andcan make an informeddecision. Finally, be-ware of anyone whowants you to pay forsomething with a pre-paid debit card.
