Attorney Larry Thrush presented the request for two of the adjoining landown- ers, Sharon Vanlandingham and Linda Mclaughlin, who were in atten- dance at the meeting. Notice of the poten- tial vacation was sent to adjoining landown- ers via certified mail and published in the newspaper, as per statutory require- ments. Thrush report- ed that none of the four adjoining landowners expressed negativity toward the prospect of vacating the street. The vacation passed the first read- ing and will be revisit- ed at a later meeting. Council members held a second reading of Special Ordinance #1, which regards construction work resulting in damage to city streets. Essentially, this ordi- nance serves to put on paper what has already been in prac- tice for some time. As per the ordinance, the City will ask contrac- tors to make repairs to any cuts they make on city streets. If the contractor fails to make the repair, the City will make the repair at a reasonable rate. This ordinance passed unanimously. General Ordinance #6 went through a first reading. This ordinance lays out a more concrete frame- work for the regula- tion of handicapped parking. At the pres- ent time, the City does not have a set plan on issuing handicapped parking signs for resi- dential or commercial locations. The ordi- nance passed the first reading and will be revisited at a later meeting. State legislature has issued a mandate to all local govern- ment to pass an anti- nepotism resolution or ordinance by July 1. This law is intend- ed to keep local gov- ernment employees from being under direct supervision of a relative. The State laid out the minimum requirements that the resolution or ordi- nance must include. City Attorney Doug Lehman felt it would be more appropriate to pass a resolution as opposed to an ordi- nance because the information could be included in the County Employee Handbook. The reso- lution passed. Todd Titus, Wabash City Parks and Recreation Department, announced that fire- works will be held on July 4, 10:15 p.m., at Field of Dreams. He also announced that a study was conducted of the Honeywell Pool, which is now 51 years old. He explained that the pool is in need of repairs to prolong its usefulness. The full results of the study will be released at an upcoming meeting of the Parks and Recreation Board. The next Wabash City Council meeting will be June 25, 6 p.m., at Wabash City Hall. City Council passes anti-nepotism resolution by Danielle Swan After six years of discussion, and many months of grant writ- ing and construction, the City of Wabash and the Parks and Recreation Board has finally completed the extension to the Riverwalk. A ribbon- cutting event was held June 14, on the new trail underneath the Wabash Street Bridge, with many community members in atten- dance. With the new extension, the City of Wabash may now boast that it contains four miles’ worth of trail system. The Riverwalk trail extension was funded largely by a $1 million grant from the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT), which is a testament to the Department’s willing- ness to work with the City on this project. “When I first got in office, there was a com- ment made to me that was always kind of interesting: ‘You never get anything out of the railroad or INDOT.’ I always found that interesting because I’ve had absolutely no problems with the rail- road and very, very few problems with INDOT,” said Mayor Bob Vanlandingham. “When I have needed something, we sat down and talked and worked things out and I have found INDOT to be a good partner.” In attendance at the ribbon cutting were representatives from E&B Paving and BF&S Engineering Services, who were both instru- mental in the project. “They were the ones that helped put this thing together and it took a lot of talking and hard work,” Vanlandingham said. He went on to thank many members of local boards and gov- ernment. “We have a great deal of dedicated elect- ed officials, and in some communities I don’t know if that’s true, but I’ve been here for eight and a half years and I couldn’t have expected to work with a better group of officials,” he said. “People sometimes for- get, you can’t run a city government or any government without certain boards. We have boards all over the place that are manned by volunteers. I can tell you, it would be impossible to run a government efficiently without those people who volunteer and give their time.” Besides members of local government, sev- eral local volunteer groups played impor- tant roles in this proj- ect. The Wabash Elks Lodge applied for and received a $10,000 grant for the construction of a new overlook, east of the Wabash Street Bridge. Charley Creek Foundation donated land for the trail, which was valued at $161,000. Vanlandingham also felt that the two preced- ing mayors of Wabash, Bob McCallen and Arvin Copeland, played an instrumental role in bringing this project to fruition. “I was very fortunate when I got in office, I followed a couple of very successful may- ors. I’d like to give a hearty thank you to for- mer mayor, Bob McCallen, because he started the city trail system with Paradise Spring. Also, give a good hand to Former Mayor Copeland for creating the Charley Creek Trail out at O.J. Neighbours, which is part of our four-mile trail system,” Vanlandingham said. He also gave credit to Jim Ridenour, who was a big help to the city in this endeavor. “He is a former director of the National Park Services and a former director of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources. He and I went to school together a couple of years ago and he went and did his thing and he served his country well in those capacities and when he retired, he came back to Wabash and he’s been a big help to the City of Wabash,” he said. Vanlandingham closed his speech by sharing his personal thoughts on the mean- ing of the trail system in Wabash. “I hate to think of how many hours I spent as a kid right out there on that river fish- ing and so, as I walk this trail, it brings back a lot of memo- ries,” he said. “A great place for a family to relate to each other is in the beauty of nature so my hope is that this trail and the loving surroundings that accompany it will be enjoyed by folks of all ages.” City of Wabash, Parks and Recreation Board complete Riverwalk Extension Project CITY OF WABASH MAYOR BOB VANLAND- INGHAM address the audience during his speech at the Wabash Riverwalk Extension ribbon cutting.

have endured the moments ofsheer terror and high bloodpressure were rewardedSaturday at Victory Field inIndianapolis. The Norsebecame the 2A state champions,edging Evansville Mater Dei 3-2.“We’ve adopted a nickname—
the Cardiac Kids,” Northfield’sace and winning pitcher, RyanKeaffaber, said.Watching these Norsemen
gets the heart thumping.Throughout this season’s

IHSAA tournament series, theNorse faced two last-inningdeficits and three last at-batvictories.Saturday marked the first
time throughout this postsea-son Northfield represented theaway team. The Norse (29-5-1)defense and the brilliance ofKeaffaber made sure therewould be no Mater Dei heroics.In fact, Keaffaber held the
Wildcat offense to a 3-for-17 per-formance with runners on baseand 1-for-7 with a runner atthird.“Ryan pitches year round, so
I’m not sure there’s a situationhe’s never seen before,” TonyUggen, the Norse Head Coach,said.“The state championship
game wasn’t too big for him. Hewas great.”Possibly the biggest threat
Mater Dei (18-14-1) posed camein the bottom of the thirdinning with the Norse holding

a 2-0 lead. Sam Goad led off with a base hit
through the middle of the infield.Alex Springer followed with aninfield base hit, and then a wildpitch moved both runners into scor-ing position.Keaffaber struck out Adam
Blankenberger for the first out ofthe inning. Next, Tyler Walshgrounded to third base. Goad brokefor home, but Northfield third base-man Adam Roser combined withhis older brother and catcher, AndyRoser, for the force out.The final batter, Cody Hess,
grounded to the pitcherfor the third out.“I’m just glad I can
come through for myteammates on a stagelike state—that’s thebest feeling,” Keaffabersaid.The Norse wasted lit-
tle time cracking thescoreboard. Adam Roser,the Norse freshmanleadoff man, sent a sin-gle to centerfield in thetop of the first. He scored on a wild
pitch after a TannerChamberlain sacrificebunt and then moving tothird on an Andy Rosertowering flyout.Collin Dawes scored
Northfield’s second runin the second inningafter smacking a one-outdouble to left field,marking Dawes’ firstextra-base hit of the sea-son.Dallas Hovey reached
Wells earns L.V.Phillips MentalAttitude Award
By J.D. SparksINDIANAPOLIS—Northfield’s Hunter
Wells capped off an impressive senior sea-son Saturday.After his team defeated Evansville Mater
Dei 3-2 in the 2A state championship base-ball game at Victory Field Saturday, Wellswas named the L.V. Phillips MentalAttitude Award winner.“It feels pretty awesome,” Wells said to
The Paper Saturday night. “I’m just in awe.I have the perfect team and I’ve beenblessed with a great family, awesome team-mates and awesome coaches. It just feelsgreat.”Northfield Head Baseball Coach Tony
Uggen described Wells as the L.V. PhillipsAward personified—the perfect winner forthe award.“I can’t say enough about how special
(Wells) is,” Uggen said.“If you would have told me three years
ago that he would win the most prestigiousaward in high school baseball, starting on astate-championship team and batting .380,I’d have told you that you are crazy. “That’s not to sound negative, either.
That’s just a testament to his work ethic. Hejust strived to be the best he can be at what-ever he’s doing.”
Keaffaber ends seasonunblemished, 16-0
by J.D. SparksAfter out-dueling Evansville Mater Dei starting pitcher Joe
Ritter 3-2 in the 2A state finals game Saturday, Northfield aceRyan Keaffaber ended his junior year with a blemish-free 16-0pitching record.With his 16th win, Keaffaber, a 6-foot southpaw, tied the
Indiana state record for the second most wins in a season. Onlyfour players before him have reached 17 wins.“It’s pretty cool,” Keaffaber told The Paper about his 16-0
record.“Not a lot of other guys have had a chance to do that. But the
feeling of winning a state title and to be able to perform for myteammates trumps anything else right now. “Those guys are the best.” In 109 and two-thirds innings pitched this season, Keaffaber
racked up 164 strikeoutsagainst 30 walks and 56hits. He finished the seasonwith a 1.23 ERA.What may be more
impressive, however, is thathe recorded the win in eachof his team’s seven IHSAAtournament wins from sec-tionals through the statetitle game.“I’m not sure if that’s
ever been done before,”said Uggen.“If so, that has to be pret-
ty rare. With him on themound, we’re at our bestdefensively. That’s what weaimed for through the tour-nament series.

felt inside the ring, RockyFrance took a step backafter his win at AFA 7 overBrandon Bolt to figure outwhich path to continuedown. Asked if he had offi-cially retired from fighting,France was quick to replythat was far from the case.“I haven’t fought in a
while, partially because Iwasn’t sure who was goingto be next,” France said. “Ilike to think I had put on agood show whenever Ifought, but over the pastyear or so, people haven’twanted to risk their recordto take on a fighter likemyself.”During his break from
action inside the ring,France was awarded theopportunity to continueworking on his craft outsideof the ring.
“At the old gym on EastHarrison, you could tell wejust outgrew that space,”France said. “We wanted togrow, but we needed tomake sure it was at a ratewe could sustain overtime.”Recently, France and his
fiancé, Heather Varner, re-launched MMA Minded atits new and current loca-tion, 1160 North Cass St.,inside the WabashShopper’s Mart. “With this location, we’ve
been able to expand in justabout every direction,”France said. “We can nowoffer a variety of classes –not just the Mixed MartialArts training we had donein the past.”Currently, MMA Minded

Cardiac Norse...continued from page 20base and advancedDawes to third with abunt single. Hoveylater stole second anda bad throw by MaterDei’s shortstop,Hunter Owen,allowed Dawes toscore and Hovey toadvance to third.“Talk about a kid
who really shined inthe state spotlight,”Uggen said of Dawes.“He just played out-
standing. That doublewas really big. He’sbeen playing reallygood ever since theconference season
started.”Dawes added: “That
just felt good. I don’tget a lot of doubles. Ijust tried to put theball in play on a 3-2pitch. That feelingwas indescribable.”Joseph Ross began
a rally for the Norse’sthird run in the sixthinning. Ross blasted adouble over theWildcat centerfield-er’s head towards the418-foot sign.Tanner Wilcox
pinch ran for Rossand later scored whenDawes reached first
on an error.“That double, that’s
something I’m alwaysgoing to have,” Rosssaid. “That’s a memo-ry I’ll always remem-ber. It felt good to get ahit. I was hitting theball hard all day, justright at people.”That run put the
Norse up 3-1 andturned out to be thedifference. In the bot-tom of the frame,Owen blasted a tripleto right-center field,scoring Hess fromfirst with no outs toput Mater Dei within
a run at 3-2. Keaffaber forced a
groundout back tohimself from the nextbatter and ended theframe with consecu-tive strikeouts.In the final inning,
Jake Fleming startedthe frame with a four-pitch walk and laterstole second.Keaffaber struck outtwo of the next three,including the final outof the game, to sealthe win.“(Keaffaber) kind of
lost his fastball, butthe last guy, I knew hewas looking curve,”said Andy Roser.“I knew if he swung
at Keaffaber’s fastball, he wasn’t goingto hit it. That was thehardest one he threwall game. “That just felt really
good. It hasn’t set inquite yet, though.”Keaffaber finished
the game with seveninnings pitched. Heallowed two runs, oneearned, on seven hitsand a walk and struckout nine.Mater Dei scored an
unearned run in thefifth with the help of acouple of Norseerrors. Adam Roserhelped end the threatby nailing anotherrunner at the platewhen he broke homeon a grounder tothird. Adam Roseralso turned in a bril-liant diving stop andthrow to first, whereRoss stretched tomake the play, in thesecond inning.“Adam Roser has
been one of the miss-ing pieces to a teamlike this,” Uggen said. “He played great.
For a freshman tomake the plays that hedid and get a couple ofhits at state, that’shuge. He’s on pace tobreak severalNorthfield records.”This 2012 state
championship marksNorthfield’s secondoverall. The firstcame in 2001, alsowith Uggen at thehelm.“You know, just as
in 2001, no one isgoing to rememberwho the stars of thisteam were,” Uggensaid.“All 20 of these kids
are state champions,including EthanStouffer, SpencerMiller, Jared Kirtlan,R.J. Waldon, every-one. All these kidscontributed anddeserve credit.”
Keaffaber endsseason...continued from page 20“We wanted to be in
a position where hewas pitching.”Keaffaber is 35-2
overall in his career,just 11 victories awayfrom tying Indiana’sall-time record.Wheeler alumni SteveDeRoss set the cur-rent all-time bestmark in 1987 with 46.
