family and friends who trustedand believed in me. I would alsolike to thank all the citizens ofBlue Ash Ward 3 who voted forme. I am looking forward toworking with each councilmember and the Blue Ash Citystaff to serve the community,”Jhaveri wrote in his comment.
The only incumbent to win inthe three contested races wasMarc Sirkin for the Ward 5 seat.Sirkin received 66 percent of
the votes, or 559 votes, and chal-lenger Margaret Del Favero re-ceived 33 percent, or 281 votes.This was Sirkin’s first election.He was appointed to the seat in2014 after councilman MarkWeber passed away.
"I want to thank my neigh-bors for allowing me to serve
the city of BlueAsh as it con-tinues to thriveand evolve,” Sir-kin said.
Bryanthanked theWard 3 residentsfor allowing himto representthem for 20
years and said he was happy tobe a part of Blue Ash’s progressfor its residents and businesses.
“On Election Day the voterschose to hand this council seatover to Mr. Jhaveri. I wish himall the best. I hope PJ will provehimself worthy of the confi-dence they have placed in him,”Bryan wrote in an email.
Poll workers said voter turn-out varied throughout BlueAsh.
“Better than expected. Peo-ple were lined up at 6:30,” saidSally Carlsen, Blue Ash Ward 1precinct director, about the vot-er turnout at the Blue AshAmerican Legion Post.
Turnout was 46 percent inWard 1, 51percent in Ward 3 and
52 percent in Ward 5.Carlsen said she thought the
statewide issues drew morepeople out. She said the workershad problems with their print-ers in the morning.
“It has not affected peoplevoting,” Carlsen said.
Poll worker Dick Huskeysaid the turnout was ratherlight at the Blue Ash RecreationCenter, which was the locationfor Ward 5. He said the locationhad only minimal problems.
“It was a little touchy in thefirst half hour, but that is prettytypical,” Huskey said.
Mayor Lee Czerwonka andVice Mayor Tom Adamec ranuncontested for the two at-largeseats. Councilwoman StephanieStoller ran uncontested for the
Ward 2 seat and CouncilmanRobert “Jack” Buckman ran un-contested for the Ward 4 seat.

The show is rathernew and no other schoolsin the area have per-formed it before, saidsenior Abby Morehouse,the other head of public-ity.
“In the past we havedone ‘The Wizard of Oz’and ‘Anything Goes,’ butwe wanted to do some-thing different. It isabout a murder mysteryand then the idea of it be-ing a musical within amusical is also prettyunique,” Morehousesaid.

cal. The majority are Ur-suline students withboys from St. XavierHigh School, LakotaWest High School andSycamore High School,publicity crew memberand junior Kearstyn Bo-wen said.

A 1.5-mill safety ser-vices levy for SymmesTownship was easily ap-proved by voters Nov. 3.
According to unofficialelection results, 2,946, or68.1 percent, of the voterswere for the levy and1,380, or 31.90 percent,were against the levy.
With levy approval, the
township will be able tomaintain the current levelof services for fire, EMSand police protection.
Currently the townshiphas a five-year, 1-mill safe-ty levy that is scheduled toexpire at the end of thisyear. The money generat-ed by the levy is used topay for fire, EMS and po-lice services. The newlevy approved Nov. 3 in-cludes a 1-mill renewal
and an additional 0.5 millsto meet increasing costs.
The expiring 1-millsafety levy generatedabout $607,730 a year andcosts homeowners about$29.80 per $100,000 valua-tion annually, she said.The new 1.5-mill levy willgenerate an estimated$879,335 and cost home-owners about $46.45 per$100,000 valuation annual-ly.

Transparency will be apriority for newly-elect-ed Indian Hill schoolboard members.
Nancy Aichholz andLyle Fiore received the
highestnumber ofvotes dur-ing theNov. 3election.
The un-official tal-ly for thetwo openseats wasAichholzwith 2,594votes andFiore with1,616 votes.CandidateKris Pear-son re-ceived
1,596 votes.Board members Tim
Sharp and Erik Lutz,whose terms are ending,
did not seek re-election.“I think it’s always
good to have new per-spectives, different ex-periences and differentbackgrounds,” Aichholzsaid.
Both Aichholz andFiore acknowledgedsome of the challengesthe recent board hasfaced, specifically a law-suit regarding insidemillage that still remainsunresolved.
“I didn’t have to livethrough what the currentboard has the last fewyears,” Aichholz said. “Ican come in with a fresh,positive attitude.”
This was echoed byFiore. “Not pointing fin-gers, (but) the tax issuecaused so many prob-lems,” he said. “I thinkwith some new blood wewill be able to reach out todifferent demographicsin the community.”
Fiore said a number ofpeople in the communitymay have become disen-
franchised with theboard as a result.
“I know (we want) tobring the communityback in and make themfeel a part (of things),” hesaid. One way to accom-plish this may be commu-nity forums, he said.
Aichholz said shewants to get a good han-dle on the budget andmake sure the district is
fiscally responsiblewhile still providing sig-nificant opportunities for
its students.Fiore said a topic he
would like to investigate
is a later start time forthe middle and highschool students.
Although not electedto the board, Pearson saidshe still plans to continueher volunteer work in thecommunity, adding thatshe considers herself “abehind the scenes per-son.”
When asked what shewould like to see the newboard members accom-plish when they starttheir terms in January,Pearson said, “I’d reallylike to see the board es-tablish better communi-cation with the communi-ties that comprise theschool district.”

Twin Lakes Senior Liv-ing Community has un-veiled a $52 million ex-pansion plan that will ad-dress ongoing needs forindependent living ac-commodations and muchneeded memory-supportassisted living services.
Owned and operatedby Life Enriching Com-munities, construction isexpected to begin at theMontgomery campus, at9840 Montgomery Road,in early summer 2016 andshould be completed bylate 2017.
LEC President & CEOScott McQuinn said,“This project will posi-tion Twin Lakes with theability to provide the fullcontinuum of services forolder adults now and intothe foreseeable futurefor the next generation.”
The expansion will addapproximately 45 apart-ments for independentlifestyles, a casual dining
venue, a community cen-ter/auditorium, and retaildevelopment. The pro-ject also includes con-structing a new buildingcontaining 56 memory-support assisted livingaccommodations withtwo distinct levels of ser-vice: a high-functioninglevel for individuals withmild to moderate cogni-tive impairment, and alower-functioning levelfor individuals with mod-erate to severe cognitiveimpairment.
“This approach tomemory care is innova-tive and a shift from thetraditional one-room-schoolhouse modelwhere individuals aregrouped together regard-less of cognitive ability,”said Jim Mayer, TwinLakes executive director.
Since completion ofthe Twin Lakes campus in2005, they have experi-enced 98 percent occu-
pancy rates for indepen-dent living apartmentsand have a lengthy wait-ing list, which promptedthe organization to begintheir master planningprocess in 2014. Due to in-creased demand for ac-commodations andchanging consumer pref-erences, club-style din-ing will be added to thecampus adjacent to thecommunity center/audi-torium to allow residentgatherings in a singlevenue for meetings, edu-cation, and entertain-ment.
Twin Lakes is partner-ing with the Cincinnati of-fice of CR architecture +design to create thelayout and design fea-tures, and Danis BuildingConstruction from Day-ton, Ohio will constructthe new building and sub-sequent renovations toexisting therapy andnursing care areas.

A vote at the Octobermeeting of the SymmesTownship RepublicanClub made it official – theSymmes Township Re-publican Club and Love-land Republican Club arenow the Symmes-Love-land Republican Club.
Discussions to join theclubs had been ongoingfor months, with propos-als to update the bylaws ofthe Symmes Townshipclub and incorporateLoveland club traditionssuch as the Columbus DayPicnic into the schedule.
In an effort to be surethat both areas are repre-sented on the board, a sec-ond vice president posi-
tion has been added withthe understanding that itwill be filled by a Love-land resident.
“The Northeast regionof Hamilton County, Ohio,is an important votingbloc in county, state andfederal elections,” ZacHaines, president said ofthe new club, said. “As aresult of this new merger,our club will be betterable to attract speakers,organize grassroots activ-ities, and help principledRepublicans get elected.”
Former LRC PresidentBrent Zuch will serve asthe first vice president-Loveland, joining currentSymmes board members
Haines, Karen Diehl andCarol Sims.
“when Zac (Haines)first told me he was start-ing a club I immediatelybrought up mergingthem. Zac had frequentedour (LRC) meetings andwe became fast friendswhen we … found we werevery like-minded,” Zuchsaid. “I fundamentallyfeel Republicans shouldwork together when pos-sible as we have a com-mon belief in the tradi-tions of America beinglimited government andmaximized liberty.”
Two years later, thatsuggestion has become areality.
The Symmes-LovelandRepublican Club meetsmonthly except July andAugust. Most meetingsare at the Symmes Town-ship Safety Center, 7781Weekly Lane, on the thirdMonday of the month at6:30 p.m. Speakers haveincluded Ohio SupremeCourt Justice SharonKennedy, U.S>L Reps.Steve Chabot and BradWenstrup, as well as localjudges, county and town-ship officials. The Nov. 16meeting speaker will beCincinnati CouncilwomanAmy Murray and otherguests.
Zuch is eager to inviteLoveland residents to jointhe new club.
“I encourage all mem-bers of the Loveland Re-publican Club to come to ameeting of the newSemmes Loveland Repub-lican Club soon, alongwith any other Republi-cans that have not beenactive in a club in thearea,” Zuch said.
“Everyone is welcometo attend our meetingsand participate in the dia-logue,” Haines said. “Wewant to make sure votersare informed about the is-sues and challenges thatare facing their communi-ty.”

What’s a brookie? If you’re likemost folks, you’d say you don’t havea clue. So you read it here first: acombo of a cookie and brownie.
I was hooked after tasting one atthe Empty Bowl Soup Event for KidsCafé last week with friend and col-league, Chef Deb Goulding. When Iinquired about the brookies, ChefJudy Walsh, educator at the Interna-tional Culinary School at the ArtInstitute of Cincinnati, told me herstudents made them.
I liked them so much that I wanted to sharea recipe with you. Now this one is a “speedscratch,” from a box mix and refrigerated
cookie dough. I don’t have room here formy recipe which is all from scratch, but ifyou want that, check out my abouteating.com website.
Tip from Rita’ s kitchenAdd defatted drippings from roasted
turkey to the gravy on Thanksgiving Day.
Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herbalist,educator, Jungle Jim’s Eastgate culinaryprofessional and author. Find her blog on-line at Abouteating.com. Email her at
1 box brownie mix - I used milk chocolate, but use your favorite1 pack refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
To make cupcake shaped brookies:I made the brownie mix according to package directions for cake like
brownies and poured it about 2/3 of the way up into muffin tins which werelined with paper liners. This is important; otherwise they stick terribly,whether your recipe is from a box mix or from scratch. I rolled a scant table-spoon of cookie dough into a ball, then flattened it out and smooshed itdown just a tiny bit on top of the batter. After baking at 350 for 25 minutesthey were done. A toothpick inserted in the center came out pretty clean.
What happens is the brookie has a cookie top with a brownie bottom.It made 12 brookies.
To bake in pan like brownies:Follow directions on brownie box and lay flattened cookie dough in
rows on top.
My best make-ahead gravy for Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving will be here before you know it. To take some stress outof making the feast, each week I’ll share a make-ahead recipe so you won’tbe chained to the stove on Turkey Day.
I add onion peels into this stock for nutrients and color. This is adaptedfrom one I clipped from a magazine years ago, and it really works.
6 turkey wings1 very large or 2 medium yellow onions (not sweet), quartered 1 cup water8 cups good quality low sodium or salt free chicken broth, divided1 nice carrot, chopped - leave peel on1 rib celery, chopped1/2 teaspoon dried thyme or 2 teaspoons fresh Handful fresh parsley (opt)3/4 cup flour2 tablespoons butter or fat from stockSalt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Put wings in single layer in sprayedroasting pan. Scatter onions over top. Roast for an hour or so - wings will benicely browned.
Place wings, onions and peels if using in a pot. Add water to roastingpan and stir, scraping up any brown bits. Add to pot. Stir in 6 cups broth,carrot, celery, parsley and thyme. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to simmer andcook uncovered about 1-1/2 hours.
Remove wings and pull off skin and meat. Discard skin and save meatfor another use. Strain stock into pot. Press on veggies to extract remainingliquid. Discard veggies and skim fat off. If you want, this is easier done if yourefrigerate the stock. Fat will congeal to top, making it easy to remove. (Ifyou do it this way, you can save 2 tablespoons of fat and replace the buttercalled for in step 5 with the fat).
Now bring this to a gentle boil.Whisk flour into remaining 2 cups chicken broth until smooth. Gradu-
ally whisk into simmering broth; simmer until gravy thickens. Stir in savedfat or butter and season to taste.
Refrigerate up to a week or freeze up to 2 months.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
“I have voted via mail forover 10 years. Anyone can do it.I am amazed how few folksknow of this facility. I felt thetwo marijuana issues alongwith the (Northwest Schools)bond issue were the most im-portant. Getting Colerain newTownship leadership was alsoimportant to me. I have tired ofColerain trustees turning awaymillions of revenue dollarsfrom Rumpke for ColerainTownship. They then wasted
thousands of taxpayer moneyon legal fees fighting Rumpketo appease the very vocal mi-nority. It appears the silentmajority of voters got theirnew trustee to fix this. As pre-dicted the township lost theirlatest legal appeal on this mat-ter. Rumpke can now expandonto property that was of nouse to anyone else. Go figure!”

Nov. 4 questionWhy did you go the polls Nov.
3, or why did you stay home?What were the most importantissues and races in your commu-nity?
“I will go to the polls Nov. 3.However if Issue 3 passes itcould be the last election I votein because I will then have areason for becoming even morelazy and apathetic. To that pointI think Issue 3 is a very impor-tant one. There is the approval
or rejection of legalization ofmarijuana. Then there is theprovision of having that approv-al actually written into the stateconstitution, which makes itsomething that would be veryvery difficult and costly to everoverturn. Then there is the busi-ness model of an industry oli-garchy which passage of theissue would create, a model thatwould be approved for the al-ready chosen marijuana farm-ers.”

Let’s take the discussion ofpoverty out of politics andexamine it in the field of eco-nomics.
This is true because thereis no law that will create eco-nomic equality.
Some people work harder.Some have greater talent.Some have special skills.Some are just lucky.
Many are better educated.Some were simply born towealthy parents.
To properly examine thisrequires stepping on a lot oftoes.
So, let’s start with the poli-ticians. Neither party isblameless. The goal of themajority of politicians is toget elected and then to stay inoffice. This requires satis-fying their donors who fi-nance their elections. Every-one else is merely a usefultool who is promised the“benefits” of that politician’sperson and party.
Statistics show that thepoor will vote for a politicianwho promises equality orhigher minimum wages. Real-ity is very different. Sales arebased on total costs. A higherwage means higher taxes onwages for the employee andemployer. These are the So-
cial Security,unemploy-ment, workerscompensationand others. Itmeans thatcosts of goodsproducedhave to beincreased tocover theseplus addedmarkup to
maintain profitability. It maylead to moving the job over-seas, closing, or going to anarea with less taxes. The win-ner is the politician, the loseris the struggling worker. Thebusiness merely chooses thebest option.
There is a way to improvethe condition of the poor. Itwill not change the differencebetween the rich and the poor,as both would be better off.My idea would encourage thewealthy to spend more moneyin our economy and wouldimprove conditions for every-one from the bottom to the topearners. We have all heardabout the “trickle down the-ory.” The reality is that themore there is at the top of thestream, the more reaches thebottom! Wealthy people in-vest and spend more when
their wealth increases.Whether they hire more peo-ple or spend more money, oreven give to charity, the livesof the working folks are im-proved.
The answer to helping thepoor is to make it profitable tohire people and to make itadvantageous to take a job.This could be done by reduc-ing the taxes in relation to theamount due on new hires forall firms that add to full timeemployment. Long term un-employed people would payno income taxes the first yearand 20 percent of the stan-dard rate the second yearthey stay with that firm. Thethird and succeeding yearsthe taxes would raise 20 per-cent until they reached fulltaxation after the fifth year.This would likely create com-petition for hiring workersand workers competing to gethired by the best firms. Actu-aries could figure out thedecreases in costs for thegovernment and states and alikely decrease in the deficit.
The next step would bebalancing the budget by prop-er administration of govern-ment workers and wages.

How to really help the poor

Winter is right around thecorner, and with it comescolder weather and higherheating bills. October is Na-tional Weatherization Month,so now is the time to beginpreparing homes in order toconserve energy and savemoney. At People WorkingCooperatively we’ve beenproviding services to thelow-income, elderly and dis-abled citizens of Greater Cin-cinnati for 40 years to helpkeep their homes warm andtheir bills low, and we’ve puttogether a few easy tips forhomeowners to prepare theirhome this season.
Step one of preparing ahome for winter is checkingthe windows and doors. Theseare two of the areas it is easi-est for heat to escape and coldair to enter a home. Beginoutside, checking the sealbetween windows and siding.
After sealing the outside,homeowners should moveinside and check the weatherstripping on their windows. Ifthe weather stripping looksworn down it should be re-placed. Just sealing windowscould save 15 percent offenergy bills this winter.
Installing a programmable
thermostat isanother greatway forhomeownersto save mon-ey on theirenergy bill.For everydegree a ther-mostat is setback over aneight-hourperiod, home-
owners can save as much asone percent on their energybill each month. It’s easy toprogram the thermostat toturn the heat down at nightwhile everyone is sleepingand during the day while thehouse is empty, but begin towarm it back up when thefamily will be up and aroundthe house. Checking the fur-nace early - before it getsreally cold - is a good rule ofthumb. Waking up on the firsttruly cold day of the season todiscover the furnace isn’tworking is a situation home-owners want to avoid. Call in aprofessional to evaluate thefurnace and provide any tune-up necessary. Annual mainte-nance keeps furnaces runningsafely and efficiently andavoids larger problems down
the line. Another easy mainte-nance tip is to change your airfilter. Filters should bechanged every few months,and it’s a good idea to changeit out before the furnace getsheavy use. The new filterhelps with efficiency, keepsair clean, and helps to keepthe family healthy.
It’s also important to cleangutters twice a year to makesure they are working proper-ly. Now that leaves have start-ed falling, it’s a good idea forhomeowners to check theirgutters for debris includinganimal nests, branches,leaves, and anything else thatmay have landed on the roof.Homeowners should alsoensure that their downspout ispointed away from the houseto avoid erosion to the founda-tion because of run-off.
Taking the time to weather-ize could mean significantsavings on energy bills thiswinter. We encourage home-owners to evaluate their ener-gy use and take some of thesesteps to ensure their homesstay warm and efficient thiswinter.

Falling is a serious healthrisk among older adults. In fact,in Hamilton County falls are theleading cause of hospitaliza-tions, emergency room visitsand deaths in individuals overage 65, and one out of threepersons aged 65 and older fallsannually.
Nationally, these types ofemergency room visits andhospitalizations result in $30billion a year being spent treat-ing older adults for the effectsof falls. Not only are falls ex-pensive to treat, but the painand injury they cause keepsolder adults from maintainingan active and healthy lifestyle.This can result in a drastic lossof independence.
According to the HamiltonCounty General Health Depart-ment, 48 percent of falls occurin the home. Of those, approxi-mately one out of three homefalls are due to environmentalissues. What this means is thatmany, many of the falls thathappen within the home can beavoided if the home environ-ment is secured, and in somecases modified, for fall preven-tion. So what can be done toreduce the likelihood of falls?An easy way to begin is to lookat some of the most commonlocations for falls, like door-ways, cluttered hallways, areaswith heavy traffic, stairs andbathrooms. Simple steps toprevent in-home falls includeremoving throw rugs or ensur-ing floor coverings are securedwith a non-skid backing. It’s alsoimportant to secure electricaland phone cords out of walk-ways, and to remove trippinghazards like paper, boxes, toysand clothes from stairs andwalkways.
Staircases are one of themost common areas for falls,and should be looked at careful-ly to ensure safety and security.
At WholeHome Mod-ifications, ourexperts recom-mend installingrailings on bothsides of stair-cases, bothinside andoutside of thehome. Ourexperts alsorecommend
installing additional lighting atthe top and bottom of staircases.
Another common problemarea is the bathroom. Fromslippery tub bottoms to slick tilefloors and high barrier shower/tub combinations, the bathroomis an area where families arethe most vulnerable. Fortunate-ly, bathroom safety productsare now available in high-endfinishes and beautiful designs,so you don’t need to choosebetween a safe, secure bath-room and a beautiful bathroom.A few ideas include installing awalk-in/roll-in shower stall de-sign with inconspicuous grabbars, and choosing toilet paperholders and towel racks thatserve as additional support.
The important thing to re-member is that falling does nothave to be a part of gettingolder. There are easy steps thatcan be taken to prevent falls,and to make your home a safeplace so that you can maintainthe healthy, active lifestyle youenjoy. If you’re not sure whereto start, consider calling WholeHome Modifications at 482-5100for an in-home consultation withan expert. We will conduct adetailed Fall Prevention assess-ment, and can guide you in thebest direction to ensure safetyand prevent falls.

SYCAMORE TWP. – Themid-afternoon race at NationalTrail Raceway Nov. 7 represent-ed a first with an asterisk forSycamore High School’s boyscross country team.
For the first time since raceswent to five kilometers, the Avi-ators were able to fly on theground in the Division I statemeet. The asterisk notation isnecessary because of thechange in high school racingfrom yards and miles to metricmeasurements.
Other than large plastic bot-tles of carbonated beverages,running is one of the few areaswhere the metric system is stillrecognized in the United States.
“They went in 1981when theyran a two-and-a-half mile race,”Aves head coach John Benhamsaid. “Sycamore has been to thestate tournament, but not in the5K race.”
Typically sporting a bow-tieto raise awareness for a charita-ble cause each season, Benhamhas seen his runners blossomfrom the Ohio High School Pre-season Invitational at NationalTrail in August to return threemonths later for big meet.
“We kind of started puttingsomething together at the GMC,by finishing second,” Benhamsaid. “We moved on to the dis-trict meet and kept on rolling atthe VOA (Voice of AmericaPark). We were second at dis-trict for the third year in a row.The regional race in Troy was atough one. It’s a difficult regionto get out of.”
Sycamore finished behindtheir nemesis, Mason, in theGreater Miami Conferencemeets and in districts and re-gionals. At Troy on Halloween,St. Xavier also beat the Aves,but Benham’s boys outpointedBeavercreek to keep runninganother week.
“We had our one front-run-ner in Kyria (Graves), who fin-ished 12th,” Benham said. “Af-ter that, we worked on support-
ing each other and taking turnswhen someone needs to step up.It all kind of came together atregionals.”
In the boys Division I race atHebron, Sycamore placed 14thas a team. From the area, Masonwas second to champion Cleve-land St. Ignatius and St. Xavierwas eighth.
Leading the Aviators wasKevin Lawson in 39th place at16:06. Miles Menyhert was 86that 16:35.5, Kyria Graves 113th at16:53.3, Matthew Isakson 115that 16:56.3, Mitch Singstock 117that 16:58.7, Andrew Schrantz134th at 17:16.5 and Martin Gon-zalez 135th at 17:18.1. Therewere 144 top runners in therace.
It was the final prep race forseniors Graves, Singstock andGonzalez. Lawson, Schrantz,Isakson and Menyhert will re-turn to anchor the 2016 teamnext fall. Amazingly, it wasIsakson’s first season of crosscountry after previously play-ing soccer.
“We’re trying to reload,”Benham said. “We had a lot ofunderclassmen fighting for var-sity spots.”
In the end, Benham’s four-year plan was right on schedule.He was able to board a Syca-more bus Nov. 7 with a handfulof runners who began as fresh-men under him in 2012.
“When I was hired, that waskind of the plan,” Benham said.“They’ve completed the wholeprogram so to speak.”
Sycamore placed third in the Division I regional at Troy to make the statemeet for the first time since the early 1980s.

LIBERTY TWP. – TheMoeller boys soccer team end-ed its season at 9-6-7 after bow-ing to Mason 1-0 in the DivisionI Region 4 tournament finalNov. 7, following a strong post-season run. The Crusaderswere 4-5-7 as late as Oct. 13.
Against Beavercreek in theDivision I regional semi, Moell-er overcame a 1-0 deficit to tiethe game in the second half,then won in overtime courtesyof senior Hayden Schriml, 2-1.
During the season, the Cru-saders had an astonishing 12games where they scored onegoal or less. Between Sept. 6-15,they amazingly had five con-secutive ties with a total of four
goals on their way to an im-probable total of seven drawsoverall.
Finally on Oct. 20, coachRandy Hurley’s group becamemore acquainted with the netwith five goals in their openingtournament win over Prince-ton. They followed with a 1-0victory over Anderson, a 3-2overtime thriller against Tur-pin, a 3-1 win over Lakota Westand the overtime win againstBeavercreek to advance toplay Mason.

Moeller senior Jonathan Rickertmakes a move on Beavercreekdefenders Wednesday duringtheir regional semifinal againstBeavercreek. The Crusaders won,2-1 in overtime.
COLUMBUS - Midwaythrough the second half.
That’s when Ursuline Acad-emy’s hopes of advancing toSaturday’s state championshipfield hockey game took a bighit. Thomas Worthington’s Ra-chel Rinaldi slid a shot by Li-ons’ netminder Sam Ward. Big-ger blows followed as the Car-dinals kept applying pressureand scored two more, puttingthe game out of reach.
Worthington, with its 3-0victory, advanced to play thewinner of Columbus Academyand Hudson.
“I was thinking it was goingto be more like a 1-0 game,” Ur-suline coach Elli Workum said.“They got us on our heels andmade it 3-0, which was a bum-mer. I have eight seniors whoare very sad at this point.”
The Cardinals createdchaos in front of Ward for mostof the first half. Each time she
found a way to get her stick onthe ball or knock it away withher pads.
In the second half, the pres-sure didn’t let up.
In one sequence late in thesecond half, Worthington hadcorner after corner. Ward wasall over the crease trying toclear the ball.
One of her attempts foundRinaldi, who put the first pointon the board.
“She was one of my seniorswho wanted to have a goodshowing,” Workum said ofWard. “It’s hard when you havepeople coming at you like that.But she never quit. She playedout of her head.”
After the Cardinals addedtwo more, the Lions now hadtwo enemies: the opponent onthe field and the clock.
With under 10 minutes re-maining, the Lions got one ofthe few corner opportunitiesthey had in the game. The ballgot to Jillian Shive’s stick butthe opportunity went by the
wayside.Ursuline entered this con-
test averaging six goals pergame in the postseason.
“We couldn’t get it downthere (on their side of thefield),” the coach said. “Theywere too aggressive for us. Weneeded to get rid of it faster.”
The Lions finish the season12-8. Eight seniors depart afterleaving a solid foundation. TheLions won their first South-west District title in threeyears last weekend, advancingto the state final four for thefirst time since 2012 after stall-ing in the district final in 2013and 2014.
They return 14 players fornext year, Shive included.
“They know they can comeback and build off this,” Wor-kum said. “They got to experi-ence this, and that’s a goldenopportunity. It’s hard. It’s a lotof pressure coming up to thislevel. Now they’ve felt it, andhave their job cut out for themnext year.”

Academy football coach EricTaylor addressed his team onthe field shortly after Fridaynight’s win.
He didn’t have to mentionnext week’s opponent. The Ea-gles already figured it could beColdwater.
Friday night was a chancefor CHCA to celebrate its re-gional quarterfinal win overRichwood North Union in the fi-nal home game of the season.
The Eagles defeated North
Union 49-27 in a Division V re-gional quarterfinal.
CHCA senior quarterbackJohnny Noyen was 7-of-14 pass-ing for 129 yards and two touch-downs. He also had 10 carriesfor 182 yards and three touch-downs.
CHCA (10-1) advances to playColdwater (11-0), which shut outBethel-Tate, 42-0, on Fridaynight, in a regional semifinal at7:30 p.m. Nov. 13 at a location tobe determined. Coldwater haswon the past three Division Vstate titles.
The game will be a rematchof last season’s Division V re-gional final, which Coldwaterwon.
LIBERTY TWP. – Whetherthey called it a chip on theshoulders or fuel to the fire,the Mount Notre Dame volley-ball team wasn’t about to loseNov. 7 in its third straight Divi-sion I regional final showdownwith Girls’ Greater CatholicLeague rival Ursuline.
Not with a third straight re-gional title on the line and achance at a third straight statetitle in the balance. And cer-tainly not after coming upshort twice this season againstthe Lions.
The two-time defendingstate champion Cougars,ranked No. 2 in the final En-quirer Division I area coaches’poll, upset No. 1 Ursuline 25-23, 25-21, 13-25, 25-19, Saturdayat Lakota West High School fortheir third straight regional ti-tle.
Mount Notre Dame willplay Toledo St. Ursula Nov. 13at 2 p.m. at Wright State in thesecond of two Division I statesemifinals. The winner willplay for the title Saturday at 3p.m.
“Losing to them twice kindof put a chip on our shoulders,”Mount Notre Dame seniormiddle blocker Dani Szcze-panski said. “It makes us wantto come out harder. We knowthem pretty well personally aswell as as players. So I justthink that losing to them putextra fire under us and madeus want to come out harder.”
Szczepanski and senior out-side hitter Sydney Mukescame up with big play after bigplay Saturday, especially inthe fourth set after Ursulinestayed alive with a dominantperformance in the third.
“It was just fuel to the firebecause we don’t want to loseto them three times and we’vegotten so much better than thelast time we played them,”Mukes said. “It’s the last timethat I’ll ever get to play themand I sure wanted to leave amark.”
Szczepanski and sopho-more Tori Beckelhimerteamed up for the final blockin the middle of the net to sealthe win. The Cougars won fiveof the last seven points in thefinal set to pull away.
“We have relied on those
girls all year, along with every-body else,” Mount Notre Damecoach Joe Burke said of Mukesand Szczepanski. “But Daniand Sydney have had the op-portunity to play in some bigmatches and we were countingon them to come up big as thismatch went along. I’m veryproud of them for everythingthey’ve done.
“This whole senior classhas been through a lot in theMount Notre Dame volleyballprogram and it’s kind of theirleadership, along with theirvolleyball, along with just be-ing good people, really for ev-erybody on the team. I’ve real-ly enjoyed coaching thesegirls and I’m glad that we haveanother week with them.”
Ursuline had outlastedMount Notre Dame, 26-24, 25-15, 18-25, 26-28, 15-11, Oct. 1 atMount Notre Dame, holdingoff a two-set rally by the Cou-gars on their home floor. Ursu-line also won 25-18, 25-22, 25-18Sept. 15 at Ursuline afterMount Notre Dame had wonthe previous four matches, in-cluding three last season andthe past two Division I region-al finals.
“We’re completely differ-ent,” Szczepanski said of herteam. “We’re passing better.We’re serving better. We’rehitting better. Everyone isreally stepping up their gamein all aspects.”
Mukes said the Cougarsplayed more as a team Satur-day than they had the previoustwo meetings.
“There was a lot of energyon the court and when we weredown, we just all had every-body’s backs,” Mukes said.
Senior middle blockerChristine Carroll’s block end-ed Mount Notre Dame’s come-back 25-23 win in the openingset. Ursuline scored the firstfour points and led 5-1 beforethe Cougars began to chipaway and finally tied it at 7-7.The teams traded points fromthere before Mount NotreDame took the set.
Szczepanski’s thunderingkill ended the second set for a25-21win for MND, her secondstraight kill after Ursuline hadinched back to a 23-21 deficit.
“I thought we overall, mi-nus that third game, obviously,played very well,” Burke said.“We have improved a lot overthe last month, but so has Ur-suline. They’re a great pro-gram with great coaches andwe kept telling these girls thatthis was going to be a battle allthe way throughout. I think wehave improved a lot and it kindof came together in spurts.”
Ursuline won 19 of the final25 points in the third set to turna 7-6 deficit into a 25-13 win,forcing the fourth set. AsBurke told his players, Ursu-line wasn’t going down easily.But
“Again, fuel to the fire be-cause we did not want to loselike that,” Mukes said. “Justknowing that we can play somuch better than that and thatis not how we play, we justplayed so much better.”
Now the Cougars have achance for a third straightstate title as well.
“We’ll see,” Szczepanskisaid. “We’re going to workhard and we’re definitely go-ing to try to do it. We’ll see howit goes.”

The Summit Country Dayboys’ soccer team remained oncourse for a third state champi-onship in four years Saturdaywith a 2-0 win over rival Cincin-nati Country Day in an all-MiamiValley Conference Division IIIRegion 12 tournament final atLakota West.
The Silver Knights, 18-3-0 andranked first in the state coaches’poll, captured their fourth con-secutive regional title. Theyplay Zanesville Bishop Rose-crans at 7 p.m. Wednesday in thestate semifinals at a site to be de-termined. The final is Nov. 14.
Cincinnati Country Day,ranked third in the state, fin-ished 17-2-2, both losses comingagainst Summit.
It was difficult to masterCCD a second time in fiveweeks, and goals were hard tocome by Saturday, but Summitprevailed with just enough fire-power. Both scores credited toSummit were under special cir-cumstances. Meanwhile, shotson goal for the Indians were few.
Moments after CCD wascalled for an infraction in thebox, Summit senior forwardCharlie Maciejewski scored thefirst goal, in the 24th minute, ona penalty kick.
Summit out-shot CCD, 15-4,but the Indians were within ashot of tying it until 15 minutesremained. The Silver Knightsmade it 2-0 with an own-goalscore that ricocheted off theupright and caromed off a CCDplayer and rolled into the net.
Summit goalkeeper JoshCampbell made three saves, andcredited defenders Rielly Dow-ling, Brendan Jones, HarrisonSchertzinger and Erik Sigmanfor their help. “The defensestepped up big time, and limitedchances,” said Campbell, a ju-nior. “I thought they did a greatjob on No. 7 (senior forwardSean O’Brien).”
CCD’s O’Brien, who led theMVC with 33 goals, had an op-portunity to tie it 15 minutes intothe second half with a shot in thebox, but it sailed wide.
CCD keeper Ian McInturfturned in a sensational perfor-mance while being pepperedwith shots, especially in the sec-ond half when Summit would notrelent. He stopped Diego Vallotatwice in the box at point-blankrange, once in each half. Sum-mit’s Jones, David Cook, SamMartin and Jacob Beardslee allhad good second-half looks atthe goal, but McInturf was ableto turn them away.
Outstanding girls matchEarlier in the week, Badin
girls soccer coach Todd Berkelywalked over to two reporters onthe sideline at Lakota West be-fore the penalty-kick portion ofTuesday’s Division III regionalsemfinal between his Badinteam and Cincinnati CountryDay.
“You can always manage asmile in a game like this because
both teams are outstanding,” hesaid.
Berkely and the Rams stillwere smiling after sophomoredefender Andi Neyer clinched a1-0 win by converting Badin’sfifth penalty kick after a CCDmiss.
CCD coach Theresa Hir-schauer wasn’t upset about play-ing Badin even in regulation andtwo overtimes before losing onpenalty kicks.
“Nobody loses a game likethis,” Hirschauer said. “We hadour shots. You have to finishsome way. My senior year, welost the state final on penaltykicks.”
Open shots were scarce, butboth teams managed to squeezein a few scoring opportunitiesduring the scoreless regulation80 minutes. The Rams got noth-ing out of three corner kicks,while the Indians got just one inthe first half.
Malia Berkely sailed a shotover the goal from 18 yards outin the 18th minute, while CCD ju-nior forward Olivia Brown – whowent into the game tied for thirdin the Miami Valley Conferencewith 17 goals and leading theMVC with 55 points, accordingto the conference website – washigh on a direct kick from 30yards out in the 37th minute.
The second half was similar.Berkely came the closest toscoring with a header off a cor-ner kick on which junior goal-keeper Olivia Robinson made aleaping save and a 43-yard di-rect kick from near the left side-line that was right on goal.
CCD freshman midfielderOlivia Scheper was wide left on a28-yard shot in the 76th minute.
Unofficially, Badin juniorgoalkeeper Abby Lampe madefive saves while Robinson madethree – all in the second half – inregulation.
CCD (16-3-1) almost ended itin the first minute of the firstovertime, but Lampe stoppedtwo shots and another later inthe first OT. Robinson made asave on a running shot by ShelbyLamping halfway through thefirst overtime.

The Springer communitywas on its game April 29 when“A Springer Celebration!2015, Game On!” was con-ducted at Xavier University’sCintas Center.
The 310 guests enjoyedcocktails and dinner, and a va-riety of hands-on sports-themed activities designed tosimulate what it might feellike to negotiate life with alearning disability.
The emotional high pointof the evening was certainlythe speech of Michael Wright,an alumnus of Springer andMontgomery resident whoplayed for seven years for theNew England Patriots.
Wright spoke eloquentlyabout his experiences as achild growing up with a learn-ing disability. He expressedgratitude that he was diag-nosed and sent to Springer,where he gained the tools andself-confidence that madesubsequent transitions tohigh school and collegesmooth and successful.
Wright had words of assur-ance for parents of studentswith learning disabilities –that their kids would be OK.He had words of encourage-ment for the children.
“The sky’s the limit foreach and every one of thosekids,” he said, “as long as theybelieve in themselves and dowhatever it takes to get them-selves better every singleday, and they don’t worryabout the noise and the criticswho are trying to tell themthey can’t, or they’re differ-ent, because they’re not.They’re their own person, andthey’ll create their own desti-
ny.”Mike thanked Springer’s
staff, and the generous do-nors who have supported theschool over the years.
“The things I learned atSpringer will rub off on mychildren,” he said, “and affectthem in a positive way as theydid me, and for that I amgrateful.”
The event raised $148,000that will support financial aid,and school and outreach pro-grams. Guests bid on morethan 100 live and silent auc-tion items, and took theirchances at three raffle prizesand a 100-bottle wine pull.WKRC TV’s Brad Johansenserved as emcee for the eve-ning.
The event chair was alum-ni parent and former Spring-er Trustee Nick Spadaccini,and current Springer parentGina Goings served as auc-tion chair.
