IT’SCOLLECTIONTIME

Princeton team members set up, aimed,and shot, but the ball hit the backboard, toohigh to score. Noting their attempt, a sec-ond team repositioned their shot, this timehitting the rim, closer but not quite there.

This wasn’t a basketball game, it was aSTEM class at Princeton High School. Stu-dents in Andrew Bridges’s freshman classwere tasked to create a scale model to ac-complish a specific task, using principles ofscience, technology, engineering and maththey’d learned in other classes.

This academic collaboration is part of aprogram that will allow students to applytheory as they learn it, giving them experi-ences that will mirror life after high schoolin careers geared toward technology andengineering.

Bridges assigned students to design andbuild a device that would allow a personwho is non-ambulatory to shoot a basketballfrom distances of five, 10 and 15 feet.

Diamond Sparks, Victoria Lopez andFrederick Cappel built a model thatlaunched the ball from a 45-degree angle.

“It was too strong,” Diamond said.“It needs to slow down as it goes to the

basket,” Frederick added.

What would they do differently?“We need to change the angle,” Victoria

said. “That made it bounce off the wall.There would be less power at 30 degrees.”

The team that followed them took note ofthis attempt and changed their strategy onthe spot.

Their spoon, the launching tool, waspoised at a greater-than-90 degree angle, soteam members Infiniti Boyd, Briasia Wil-son and Jermaine Wimpye knew it would hiteven higher on the wall. So, they moved

back, to compensate.“We saw that our spoon was at an angle,”

Infiniti said, explaining why her team posi-tioned their catapult sideways.

It’s the students’ understanding of whytheir trials worked or didn’t work that addseducational depth to this program, Bridgessaid.

“My goal is to integrate social studies,language arts, science and math into practi-cal applications, real-world applications,”he said. “To do that, I come up with the chal-lenges.”

To fulfill the STEM requirements, stu-dents use several concepts:

» Science: They study projectile motion,vectors and how to isolate variables;

» Technology: Students use computersfor research;

» Engineering: These concepts are usedin the project design, and

» Math: Algebra is required to calculatethe scaled-down model.

Bridges adds “A” to the project, creatingSTEAM, as students keep journals and com-pose a report of their findings.

Inn the end, it doesn’t matter if studentscreate the perfect model.

“If a model fails, that’s OK,” Bridgessaid, “As long as you do something about it.”

As family and friends gatherfor Thanksgiving, the holidayalso marks the beginning of thebiggest shopping season of theyear.

It started with Black Friday,then came Cyber Monday, andfive years ago, American Ex-press introduced Small Busi-ness Saturday, on the Saturdayafter Thanksgiving, to roundout the kick-off of a retail sea-son that local shops dependupon.

While American Expresswon’t offer credit incentives ofthe past several years, the com-pany is concentrating on sup-porting small businesses byhelping them promote sales andattract customers.

Promotion is essential toshops like Wyoming’s Patina AtHome, A.R.T. Art ResourcesTeam, and Williams Jewelers.These small businesses, ownedby Wyoming residents, dependon the holiday season for theirsuccess.

Dean Bacovin, who owns andoperates Dean R. Bacovin Jew-elers in White Oak with his wife,Kim, say the holidays are im-portant to retailers big andsmall. He’s hoping popularitems like “Diamonds in Mo-tion,” natural yellow diamondsand a hot new trend, doublestone rings, pique the interest ofcustomers this season.

“We have a wide range ofitems and prices,” Kim Bacovinsaid as she draped flashing

necklaces against lush blackvelvet display boards. “We havesterling silver items that startas low as $29. There really issomething for everyone.”

The Bacovins say the rela-tionships they build with cus-tomers who come back againand again is one secret to suc-cess for independent business-es.

“Our customers have built atrust with us,” Dean said. “Andwe value that. It’s so important.”

The Small Business Admini-stration says small businesseslike these have a big impact.The 28 million small businessesin America account for 54 per-cent of all U.S. sales. and pro-vide 55 percent of all jobs. The600,000-plus franchised smallbusinesses in the U.S. accountfor 40 percent of all retail salesand provide jobs for some 8 mil-lion people, according to theSBA.

And it’s growing. The SBAsays while corporate Americahas been downsizing, the rate ofsmall business start-ups hasgrown, and the rate for smallbusiness failures has declined.Since 1990, as big business elim-inated 4 million jobs, small busi-nesses added 8 million new jobs.

The Independent BusinessAlliance, a nonprofit dedicatedto supporting the establishmentof independent locally-ownedbusinesses, reported that morethan a dozen studies in the past10 years showed locally-ownedrestaurants and retailers spendup to three times as much ofeach dollar they make in the lo-cal community as compared tochain competitors. This can

help create jobs and localwealth, the alliance says.

The shelves are stocked, theevergreens are trimmed withlights, and Wyoming’s smallbusinesses are ready for theholidays.

Dave Williams began plan-ning for the season in April,when he expanded his jewelrystore at 417 Wyoming Ave., add-ing whimsical gift items to his

fine jewelry inventory.On one side of Williams Jew-

elers, cases are filled with en-gagement rings, watches, ear-rings and necklaces.

“I look for unique, innovativepieces, and small designers, in-dividual artists,” Williams said.

Next door, glass-blown fly-ing pigs, character clocks, can-dles and ceramics brighten aneclectic mix of gifts.

Shoppers can decorate theirlawns with metal flying pigsculptures.

Across the street at 504 Wyo-ming Ave., holiday lights aretwinkling at Patina At Home,where owner Patty Pfahler dis-plays gifts for the home, includ-ing candles, vintage glassware,table settings and handmade

There is no one stillliving who rememberswhen the Lewis-Phillipsfamily reunion began,but it has been verifiedthat the first one tookplace before 1907.

Long before inter-state highways werebuilt, relatives traveledcountry roads and rural

routesfrom Indi-ana andKentuckyto the Ohiofamilybase inWoodlawn.Everyonebroughthome-cookedfood,

there was a huge tin tubfull of ice from whichthe children could se-lect soda pop and theelders told of the olddays, and laughed andjoked in the yard onMcLean where John andMary Phillips settled atthe beginning of the20th century. Someyears Ohio and Indianadrove to Kentucky rela-tives, and other yearsKentucky and Ohiodrove to Indiana.

People recountedtheir lives on farms andplantations, their expe-riences as Buffalo Sol-diers and in both WorldWars. Now talk is ofKorea, Vietnam and theMiddle East. Not evenwar could stop the re-unions. Sometimes thejoking had a sad ele-ment, and other times itwas hilarious. The gath-ering presented a timefor the youngsters tolearn their family histo-ry.

Two hundred yearsago, Thompson Sanderswas born a slave inMaryland. The day andmonth of his birth isunknown, but recordsshow he was born in1815. The possibility ofhis envisaging what hisprogeny would becomeis not even to be consid-ered. His Kentuckymarriage to MariahTodd would producephysicians, attorneys,laborers, washwomen,carpenters, social work-

ers, teachers, nurses,horse trainers, civilservants, administra-tors, supervisors, bas-ketball players, sol-diers, sailors, airmenand a broad spectrum ofworking Americans. Asof today, there are morethan 200 different lastnames of his descend-ants, and they gatherannually for their fam-ily reunion.

Roget’s Thesaurusgives almost 50 differ-ent definitions of theword family.

A family can be yourkith and kin. It can bethe genus of animal,vegetable or mineral.Tales of family are allthrough folk and fairytales. The Three Bears,the Three Billy GoatsGruff and Flopsy, Mop-sy, Cotton-Tail and Pe-ter were all part of fam-ily units. Whether yourfamily is your birthline, your folk, yourreligious family or yourrace, a reunion repre-sents an assembly, ahomecoming or a con-solidation plus about 42other things in the Eng-lish language. The fam-ily reunion is a powerfulthing whose effect can-not be measured inwords.

This year the Lewis-Phillips reunion tradi-tion was at the Centen-nial Barn on ComptonRoad, where Hartwelland Wyoming meet. Theweather was perfect.Babies, toddlers andolder children rompedand giggled. Adultstalked, laughed, playedcorn hole and bid whist.The food was superbwith everything fromBar BQ to grilledsalmon, and the fellow-ship was wonderful.Door prizes were raf-fled. Music played andfamily histories fromdifferent branches werepresented. Reunioncommittee president,Angie Kinsey, receiveda bouquet of flowers forall her hard work.

Every year the re-union brings togethermany branches fromthe same tree that havespread to many places.

As the family grew,relatives moved out ofstate and sometimes outof the country. Theycannot always get backhere, but they are pre-sent in spirit. Brightgreen T-shirts identi-fied that this was indeedfamily.

This is a busy week. I was atUnion Township library teach-ing quick and easy appetizerson Monday. Tuesday evening Ipresented at Notre DameAcademy in Kentucky.My topic was eatingfrom the Garden ofEden. This morning Iwas with my buddiesRon Wilson, Joe Streck-er and Joe Boggs re-cording our annualThanksgiving show atWKRC. Next I’m off todo two segments on Fox19 with Rob Williams,Kara Suell and FrankMarzullo on holiday favorites.

In between this “busyness,”I think about my abundantblessings.

So on Thanksgiving Day Iwill remember my colleaguesin my prayers along with myfamily and friends, you in-cluded. I have met so many ofyou and love to hear your sto-ries. Yet, even if we haven’tmet face to face, we meet ev-ery week through this column.Happy Thanksgiving! Remem-

ber those who may be alone -send them a card, give them acall or better yet, set a placefor them at your thankful ta-ble.

For the next fewweeks, I’ll be sharingmy favorite do-aheadedible gifts and holidayfoods. Let me know ifthere’s something youneed.

Can you help?Honeymoon Pie.

A publication of

Nov. 18 questionWhat was your most memorable

Thanksgiving (good or bad)? Whatmade it so?

“There has been no singleThanksgiving that ranks above theothers, however, those that are re-membered the most have been whenwe have invited ‘orphans’ to join ourfamily in gobbling great gobs of gen-erally garnished good eats down ourcollective gullets. We have movedmany times over the years and oftenfound ourselves distant from rela-tives at Thanksgiving so we inviteothers from work or church whomay also be too far from loved ones.There has always been a plethora offood and beverage and the extramouths are welcomed with relish.This year, look around for that lonelysingle person or two with no whereelse to go and invite them to your ta-ble. It’s all good, man.”

M.J.F.

“Well, when I was 9 or 10, our fam-ily invited another over for Thanks-giving dinner, as their family was outof town. My mother spent the day inthe kitchen baking, making casse-roles and the turkey. The family ar-rived in the afternoon just after mymother set the table and put the tur-key on the platter and set it out on thedinner table. We all went out to wel-come our friends. When we cameback inside, my dad asked motherwhere was the turkey? She said shethought she put it on the table. Welooked all over the house for it. Dad

found it ... in the mouth of our stan-dard poodle ... underneath my par-ents’ bed. We had KFC for Thanks-giving dinner! Absolutely true sto-ry!”

Chris Christman

“Seventeen years ago, my dadwas in the hospital on Thanksgivingand I took my kids to visit. The doc-tors had told him he would be goinghome the next day or two so wethought everything was going well.Later that evening we received thephone call that he had just passedaway. It's hard enough losing a par-ent, but when it falls on Thanksgiv-ing and your son's birthday there isalways that emptiness duringThanksgiving.”

Mary Abercrombie

“Our first Thanksgiving as a mar-ried couple. Fish sticks and mac ’n’cheese.”

THIS WEEK’S QUESTIONWould you feel safe traveling toEurope in light of the Paris attacks?What would it take to make youfeel safe there?

Every week we ask readers a question theycan reply to via email. Send your answers [email protected] with Ch@troom in the subjectline.

Thanksgiving Day, Iknow it’s time to givethanks, but let’s face it; thecentral nostalgic thought isall about the food on thetable.

\The inaugural food bell(Round No. 1), starts rightafter the blessing/graceand-or toast is made. Start-ing with cheers, from din-ner table participants canbe heard, proclaiming howawesome the tabletop lookswith food bowls bunchtogether in a line up for thetaking. Following this proc-lamation is the mentaldesire for more and morefood serving rounds aseating large amounts iscelebrated.

Grandma would alwayspass bowls of stuffing,cranberry salad, turkey,potatoes and so on. Shewould tell me to take moreas I was a growing boy-…ha…the only growing Iwas doing was horizontally.As a little chubby kid dur-ing my elementary days,Thanksgiving was a “giv-en” as an open season foreating as much as youwanted. Actually duringthose gatherings it wouldbe an insult to not trysomeone’s special home-made dish and comple-mentary to take more.

Thanksgiving is whereone can easily lose aware-ness of mindful eatinghabits, resulting in stom-ach discomforts that makeeating by the end of theday, not a joyful experi-

ence asadvertise.

Nowone of thebetterThanks-givingfood sto-ries I readis from anunknownsourcepass down

thru online blogs. The storyis about a mother prepar-ing a turkey feast, but thegathering itself was to beat her sister’s house. Momdecides to play a trick onher sister, as she was anaive trusting type of per-son. Mom had her sisterrun an errand to get herout of the house. While shewas gone the mom took theturkey out of the oven,removing the stuffing,inserted a small Cornishhen into the turkey and re-stuffed the stuffing and putthe turkey back into theoven.

Later when the oventimer went off, the sistertook the turkey out of theoven and as always re-moved the stuffing to putin a separate bowl. It wasthen that her oven mittenhand touches somethingelse inside the turkey.Reaching in she pulled outthe little hen. While hersister was totally takenback and in-shock, themother yells out, “Sisyou’ve cooked a pregnantturkey!” The sister, think-

ing she had done a horriblething, started to cry. Thestory goes that it took thefamily hours to persuadethe sister that it wasn’t truesince turkeys can only layeggs!

One of the more tradi-tional Thanksgiving activ-ities is at the end of dinner.This is a ceremonial mo-ment reserved for thegrandparents to take on theyounger generation withthe traditional pull of theexclusive turkey’s wish-bone. I could be technicaland give you all sorts ofGoogle information aboutthe wishbone like, the sci-entific name is “furcula”and the tradition startedwith the Etruscans, anearly civilization who be-lieved the birds like ora-cles could forecast thefuture. Later over theyears, the breaking of thebone granted the person’swish if they ended up hold-ing the longer break piece.Somehow the grandpar-ents, the oldest at the tablealways seem to have theirwishes come true.

With a new grandson, Ifeel good fortune is now inmy near future.

Thanksgiving andfood memories

WesAdamsonCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

Let’s take the discus-sion of poverty out ofpolitics and examine it inthe field of economics.

This is true becausethere is no law that willcreate economic equality.Some people work harder.Some have greater talent.Some have special skills.Some are just lucky.Many are better educat-ed. Some were simplyborn to wealthy parents.

To properly examinethis requires stepping ona lot of toes. So, let’s startwith the politicians. Nei-ther party is blameless.The goal of the majorityof politicians is to getelected and then to stay inoffice. This requires sat-isfying their donors whofinance their elections.Everyone else is merely auseful tool who is prom-ised the “benefits” of thatpolitician’s person andparty.

Statistics show that thepoor will vote for a poli-tician who promisesequality or higher mini-mum wages. Reality isvery different. Sales arebased on total costs. Ahigher wage means high-er taxes on wages for theemployee and employer.These are the Social Secu-rity, unemployment,workers compensation

and oth-ers. Itmeansthat costsof goodsproducedhave to beincreasedto coverthese plusaddedmarkup tomaintain

profitability. It may leadto moving the job over-seas, closing, or going toan area with less taxes.The winner is the poli-tician, the loser is thestruggling worker. Thebusiness merely choosesthe best option.

There is a way to im-prove the condition of thepoor. It will not changethe difference betweenthe rich and the poor, asboth would be better off.My idea would encouragethe wealthy to spendmore money in our econo-my and would improveconditions for everyonefrom the bottom to the topearners. We have allheard about the “trickledown theory.” The realityis that the more there is atthe top of the stream, themore reaches the bottom!Wealthy people invest andspend more when theirwealth increases. Wheth-

er they hire more peopleor spend more money, oreven give to charity, thelives of the working folksare improved.

The answer to helpingthe poor is to make itprofitable to hire peopleand to make it advanta-geous to take a job. Thiscould be done by reducingthe taxes in relation to theamount due on new hiresfor all firms that add tofull time employment.Long term unemployedpeople would pay no in-come taxes the first yearand 20 percent of thestandard rate the secondyear they stay with thatfirm. The third and suc-ceeding years the taxeswould raise 20 percentuntil they reached fulltaxation after the fifthyear. This would likelycreate competition forhiring workers and work-ers competing to gethired by the best firms.Actuaries could figureout the decreases in costsfor the government andstates and a likely de-crease in the deficit.

The next step would bebalancing the budget byproper administration ofgovernment workers andwages.

How to really help the poor

EdwardLevyCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

The latest research shows youthsports participation has increaseddramatically across the country inrecent years. As a result, we areseeing an increase of sports injuryin this population. The followingQ&A looks at the risks associatedwith sports specialization and howto help a young athlete find theproper balance.

What is sports specialization?Sports specialization is when an

athlete chooses year round train-ing in a single sport (greater thaneight months per year) and partici-pates in only that one sport. Thisusually involves intense training atthe expense of other sports. Sportspecialization prior to late adoles-cence may be detrimental.

Why is there an increase inspecialization?

Our society holds successfulathletes in high regard. Successfuland popular professional athletesare paid a lot of money and get alot attention and status. Children,families and coaches are wellmeaning and believe that focusingeffort early in one area and on onesport is necessary to achieve elitestatus in the child’s sport.

The facts are that only a smallpercentage of young athletes playtheir sport in college and less than0.5 percent of young athletes playprofessional sports. Of the athletesthat make it to elite status, most ofthem specialized later in adoles-cence.

What are the risks?Children who specialize in one

sport, participating in frequent,intense training are at risk foroveruse injuries. An overuse in-jury occurs with micro-trauma to atendon, bone or muscle after longterm repetition of a specific sportactivity such as pitching a base-ball, tennis serving, or swimmingshoulder motion.

Psychological stress and quit-ting a sport early due to fatigue orinjury are other problems associat-

ed with early sportspecialization.Well-meaningcoaches and par-ents may putyoung athletes atrisk for injury byencouraging in-creased intensityin organized prac-tices and competi-tion. Childrenneed a mental and

physical break from one sport.What is recommended?According to the American

Academy of Pediatrics guidelines,it is recommend children take atwo- to three-month break from aspecific sport per year. During thesports season, a child should haveone to two days off from scheduledactivity per week. In our world ofweekend tournaments, two-a-days,and year-round-sport, it is easy toforget that kids need free play.

While being part of a team hasits benefits, it’s also important forthem to sometimes grab a ball andgo outside and play. Children needtime to be creative on their ownwithout an adult hovering overthem.

What advice do you have forparents?

Strive to create an environmentwhere kids can just go out andplay. Encourage coaches and otherfamilies to keep sport in perspec-tive because your children learnfrom you and the adults aroundthem.

WYOMING — In his firstyear as varsity boys basketballcoach at Wyoming High School,Tim Edmonds led the Cowboysto the Cincinnati Hills Leaguechampionship and was namedCoach of the Year. The Cowboysfinished 21-4, including 14-0 inthe CHL.

For his 2015-16 encore, Ed-monds returns four regularsand only one is a senior, as theCowboys have a few “reload”seasons on the horizon.

Lonnie Grayson is back afterwinning CHL Player of the Yearhonors as a sophomore. He ledthe CHL in scoring at 19.1 pergame and was fourth in theleague in steals and fifth in fieldgoal percentage. At 6-foot-1, heled the Cowboys in rebounding.

Mason Rogers will be in hisfourth year starting for Wyo-ming and was first-team CHL.As a junior he averaged 8.5points and five rebounds and isa consummate team player andtough defender.

Junior Jake Edmonds wassecond-team all-CHL as a soph-omore and was second in theleague in assists. He will be en-tering his third year on varsity.Garyn Prater is also a juniorwith considerable wingspanwith the ability to break intodouble figures.

“We have a good combinationof experience and youth,”Coach Edmonds said. “Fourguys are returning who all sawsignificant minutes last year.”

The ace in the hole for Wyo-ming may be the younger son ofEdmonds, Joey. Already placedinto the limelight as Wyoming’sstarting quarterback after theinjury of Andrew Marty, JoeyEdmonds is known in his agegroup in AAU circles and willalso be joining his older brotherJake on the hardwood.

Before officially starting hishigh school career at Wyoming,Joey Edmonds was spanningthe globe last summer with hisSouthwest Ohio Elite teamdraining threes and breakingankles.

Wyoming opens on the roadat Mount Healthy Dec. 1, thentravels to CHL rival Indian HillDec. 4. The Cowboys homeopener is Dec. 5 with Ross.

If Princeton’s going to turnthe basketball team around, thisseason the Vikings will needsome new guys to step up andtake on leadership and scoringroles. Princeton lost a lot fromlast season’s 8-14 team, butcoach Jamal Walker has beenpleased with his team’s prepa-ration going all the way back tothe summer.

The Vikings have just one re-turning starter in 6-foot-3 soph-omore Dominic Pierce, who av-eraged 4.3 points and 4.5 re-bounds a game last season.

Walker said Justin Newman,Gabe O’Neal, Darweshi Hunter,Aaron Levy and Devan Cookwill all be asked to step in andplay pivotal parts for the Vik-ings. Newman averaged 6.0points per game and played in 21games last season.

If they can play together in anew gym, the Vikings could bean improved team this year.They do have to find a way to re-place nearly 36 points per gamethat graduated from last sea-son.

“I like the fact that many ofthem played a lot of summerbasketball, to me that showsthat they are committed to get-ting better,” said Walker. “Youcan’t say you’re a basketballplayer but you’re never in thegym.”

Walker hopes that offseasondedication helps the gel togeth-er when they take the floor Dec.1 at Oak Hills. Princeton’s homeopener is Dec. 4 versus LakotaWest.

With several experiencedplayers returning from a teamthat shared the Greater Catho-lic League-South championshipwith Elder and La Salle, Moell-er High School returns a deepbasketball roster for 2015-16.

Playing without injured cen-ter Nate Fowler (now at Butler),the Crusaders were 18-9 (4-2GCL-South) in their 15thstraight winning season underCarl Kremer.

Moeller returns seniorguards Trey McBride and NateGeorgeton and junior 6-foot-5guard Riley Voss as starters.McBride averaged 11.1 pointsper game and 6.5 rebounds andwas first team GCL, secondteam all-district and honorablemention in Southwest Ohio.

SPRINGFIELD TWP. — Run-ning out of the tunnel under thebright lights on a Friday night,Alex Deters is a guy you wantnext to you, not matching yourgaze from across the field in adifferent color.

Three words are etchedacross the back of Deters’ blueand white football jersey.

Long. Blue. Line. It’s more meaningful than a

name, a concept not lost Deters,a senior co-captain on St. Xavi-er’s offensive line.

From the moment that jerseytouched his shoulders, until thelast time he took it off — a sec-ond-round playoff loss to Cole-rain on Nov. 14 — Deters, athree-year undersized starter,gave everything he had for theguys in that same jersey, for theLong Blue Line that precededhim and will follow after him.

“I really enjoyed the aspectsof brotherhood and getting toknow this group of guys for thepast three years,” said Deters,who’s committed to play atPrinceton University. “I’ve de-veloped meaningful, lifelongrelationships that I’m going tocherish the rest of my life.”

St. Xavier coach SteveSpecht said Deters is “very ce-rebral, obsessive, compulsivealmost … he’s meticulous in ev-erything he does. He’s a thinker… an incredibly talented youngman, obviously going to Prince-

ton speaks volumes, but he maybe the most intelligent youngman I’ve ever coached.”

Deters is exactly what’s be-come expected of a St. Xaviercaptain; smart, tough, physicaland perhaps, most of all, a goodperson.

“He does things the rightway,” said Specht. “He leads byexample, obviously in the class-room and on the field. He’s agood boy who’s a hell of a foot-ball player. And, at the highschool level we want them all tobe good boys, but we want themto leave here as men. He playsthis game hard and he plays thisgame the right way … at heart,he’s just a good, good kid.”

Although, it might be an un-conventional attribute whichmakes Deters, who was also thestarting goaltender on St. Xavi-er’s state championship la-crosse team back in the spring,so memorable to his teammatesand coaches.

“The better way to explainAlex is he’s very content withwho he is,” said Specht. “Heknows who he is. It’s a verycalming effect it can have on alot of people. It’s funny, I couldscream and yell at Alex and I’llget the same look. I could pathim on the back and encouragehim and I’d get the same look.He’s just a calming presence onthat offensive line.

“Last year, we had MattBockhorst, John Bockhorst andDanny McHale — they’re all re-lated — they’d be screaming

and yelling at each other in thehuddle but there was alwaysAlex and his calming presenceamong them which was good.He’s just a different kid. He’smature beyond his years. It’sbeen a pleasure for me to coachhim because he is so very differ-ent in such a positive way.”

An undersized offensivelineman learns to adapt, honehis technique and lean on otherattributes. That’s what Deters

has done and that’s what he’llcontinue to do at the next level.

“He’s undersized and he’s go-ing to Princeton,” said Specht.“I think he’s gonna have a greatcareer at Princeton, but in to-day’s day in age, 6-foot-2, 255pounds is little. He’s under-sized, but he could play any po-sition on the offensive line andhe could do it well because he’sso intelligent.”

Deters took advantage of the

opportunities afforded him, andthe Long Blue Line is better be-cause a guy like him wore thejersey as well as he did.

“A leader like him … youknow you’re gonna get 100 per-cent from Deets every singleplay,” said St. Xavier quarter-back Sean Clifford. “It’s just anhonor and a privilege to playwith him. All the guys love him,that’s why he’s one of the cap-tains. I’m sad to see him go.”

Adding depth are 6-foot-7 senior forward SamMcCracken, senior shoot-ing guard Kenny Weadand 6-foot-5 junior guardKeegan McDowell.

“We have a team withconsiderable experienceand great leadership,”Kremer said. “If we con-tinue to grow collectively,we can be a very goodteam.”

Moeller starts the sea-son Nov. 27 at Taft andthen hosts Kings in theirhome opener Dec. 1. Dec.26-31 they will participatein the Beach Ball Classicin Myrtle Beach, SouthCarolina. The Crusadersfeature several collegeprospects.

“Nate Georgeton issigned with Division IINorthwood,” Kremersaid. “Trey McBride andSam McCracken are still

involved in the recruitingprocess, primarily withDII and NAIA schools.Underclassmen KeeganMcDowell, Riley Voss andIsaiah Payton (sopho-more) all have offersfrom DI or DII pro-grams.”

Cincinnati Hills Chris-tian Academy is in goodshape to knock heads withthe upper echelon of theMiami Valley Conferencethis season.

The Eagles return sev-en lettermen from lastyear’s district runner-upsquad. All-MVC Scarletperformers Erik Kohlanand Blake Southerland re-turn as leaders of theteam.

“Those two have led byexample in the past, andthey are doing it again thisyear,” coach Andy Keim-er said. “They were out-standing in the summerand have been great in theweight room. They are do-ing everything right.”

Cory Combs, CodyShiver, Tanner Souther-land and Matthew Kad-nar, among others, allcould be key contributorsfor CHCA this year aswell.

Every day in practice,Keimer is challenging hisplayers to be the one whosteps up and helps theteam. He is hopeful thatattitude carries over intothe season. The Eaglesplay a tough schedule ofMVC games and have con-tests against teams suchas Alter, Elder, Mason andMilford.

“We hold ourselves ac-countable in everythingwe do,” the coach said.“The kids are excitedabout the year.”
