Five sirens were installed with-in towns and six were installed in unincorporated parts of the township (FMR May 17, 2012).

Woman focused on family, faith and trapshootingBy JOE HORNADAY

[email protected]

McCORDSVILLE — In 2009, the Kingen Club near the Indianapolis Regional Airport celebrated its 50th year in business.

When it reaches its next mile-stone, the club will have to mark the occasion without its owner and most prominent member.

Sharon Kingen of McCordsville passed away Jan. 8 at age 68. She was born July 6, 1944, to her par-ents Dennis “Dink” and Mildred Kingen.

The trapshooting facility in Mt. Comfort was started by Sharon’s father, and was a passion that the entire family shared.

“It was her dad’s life. Then she and her mother continued it,” Sharon’s cousin Dennis Fisk said. “Her dad was a shooter and she became a shooter.”

Kingen was a member of the sec-ond-to-last graduating class in the history of the Mt. Comfort School. Although she left for 15 years to teach in Illinois, she returned to Mt. Comfort to see the effects of the interstate and the airport, both of which were completed in the 1960s.

Her father hosted several Indiana State Shoots, the last being in 1970.

“She was quite a trap shooter,” Fisk said. “She just got trophy after trophy.”

Kingen won the Grand National Ladies Championship award for Trapshooting in Vandalia, Ohio,

when she was a teenager.“I’ve always been amazed at how

good she was at that,” Fisk said.Kingen earned her doctorate in

Literature and English from Ball State University. She managed and eventually owned the Kingen Gun Club and was formerly a teacher and professor at Ball State University and at the University of Indianapolis. She was a member of the Eden Order of the Eastern Star 101, the Indiana Trapshooting Association and the Mt. Comfort United Methodist Church.

“She was born in McCordsville and raised in the Mt. Comfort and McCordsville area,” Fisk said. “We were a close family.”

The two had a sibling-style rela-tionship.

“Her dad’s name was Dennis and I was named after him,” Fisk said. “We’ve just been a real close fami-ly ever since.”

She put her family first. And that included a close relationship with her mother, Mildred, and her dedication to the Kingen Gun Club. But she was also passionate about her church.

She was a dedicated member of Mt. Comfort United Methodist Church. In 1988, she chronicled the church’s history, which dated back to 1888 in its current loca-tion. But the roots of the church began 60 years prior to that.

Church trustees hired local farmer James Murphy to build the one-room rectangular frame church in 1888. The building was

completed and dedicated in November 1888 by the Rev. C.W. Wade to a total membership of 72 people, according to Kingen’s research.

“Despite our weaknesses, we find the strength in faith to keep

the Mt. Comfort United Methodist Church vibrant and growing,” she wrote in 1988. “Despite our differ-ences, we work together to insure an even better second hundred years in the life of our church, keeping in mind that the building

is only as strong as the faith of those who worship within. And we demonstrate in every way our dedication to the faith of our fathers, ever looking upward, standing steadfast on higher ground.”

A happy time: Sharon Kingen (right) stands with mother Mildred Kingen on the porch of their residence. Their family has been in the area since the 1830s. Both are deceased; Sharon passed away earlier this month.

OPINION Thursday, January 24, 2013 Fortville-McCordsville Reporter - Indiana

Erik is out of the office this week, so we are reprinting a col-umn from 2005.

I n a past job, I worked with people who are blind or visu-ally impaired, traveled

extensively to different confer-ences, and met all sorts of people and saw all sorts of products related to technology, mobility and independent living.

One thing I learned is a lot of blind people — they prefer to be called blind and hate PC euphe-misms such as “hard of seeing,” which they think are ridicu-lous — have a strong indepen-dent streak.

Organizations such as the National Federation of the Blind and the American Council of the Blind use “of the” intentionally, because they don’t want you to do things for them. In fact, NFB members are so independent, many of them even choose to forego using guide dogs.

One summer, I was attending

the NFB conference in Louisville, Ky., and was stand-ing outside the conference hotel with my friend, Brian. We had just been to a Louisville Bats baseball game that night and were chatting and winding down the night.

As we talked, a school bus pulled up to let off several con-ference attendees who had been on a field trip to the Louisville Slugger museum and factory. The first woman off the bus tripped as she was coming down the steps, and fell three

feet, landing squarely on her knees.

When she fell, she dropped her purse, her cane and a few other objects. The woman began frantically scrambling around trying to find the objects she had dropped. The bus driver was trying to help her up, but she wouldn’t get up, still insisting on finding every-thing herself.

“Man, that’s hardcore inde-pendence,” I thought. But I also have a caretaker personality, and can’t keep my nose out of any situation if I think I can help.

So I picked up a large squar-ish button that had apparently fallen off the woman’s purse. I was going to hold onto it until the woman got up.

Which she was still not doing.As I stood there, I decided to

get a closer look at that button. I flipped it over in my hand, and was more than a little shocked to discover that I wasn’t holding a button.

It was her artificial eye. And it was staring at me.

I’m a city boy, born and raised. I never grew up on a farm. I never witnessed the Circle of Life. And I’m only on a nodding acquaintance with Mother Nature. So when I see dead things, gory things, or when people talk about their own bodily functions, I get more than a little icked out.

So when I realized what I was holding in my hand, there was a roaring in my ears and the blood rushed out of my head so fast, I thought I was going to pass out. As I held this artifi-cial eye in my hand, all I could think was “this was in her head, now it’s in my hand. This was in her head, now it’s in my hand.”

(In the woman’s defense, none of this was her fault, and I don’t want to get a laugh at her expense. She can’t help that she landed in front of a big wuss.)

A fter a slew of disturbing public shootings, American politicians have

taken it upon themselves to come up with new legislation to stem the tide of violent and regrettable out-bursts like those we had last year.

That’s solid work, and we are in control.

The White House last week unveiled a long list of potential actions, most of which came from a violence task force, including the potential use of 23 executive orders.

As first pointed out by the Washington Times, included in the task force’s suggestions to Congress, is a request for $10 million to study violent media. As noted by IGN, it’s not as significant as it seems, with Times author Stephen Dinan noting that “President Obama’s pushback against gun violence focuses heavily on new firearms

restrictions and on mental health, but video games and movies – two cultural issues that many Americans blame for violence — get little attention.”

The price tag of $10 million is like a drop in the bucket for our illustrious government, when those guys spend more than $10 billion dollars each day.

The money could fund a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study and the group will be able to undertake a study “investigating the relationship between video games, media images and violence.”

But just because violent video games are sometimes associated with real-world violence, that doesn’t necessarily mean the games cause it.

A 2011 Science Daily study showed that men who played violent video games for one week at home showed less activation in brain regions associated with controlling emotion and aggressive behavior.

But the short-term increase in aggression seems not to be something specific to computer games.

Psychologist Vaughan Bell, in an article in The Guardian, wrote that

television and even violence in the news have been found to have a similar impact.

Other recent research suggests video games can have positive effects on the brain.

Scientists have known since the dark ages of the late 1980s that playing video games, even for short periods of time, can improve reaction time and perhaps boost hand-eye coordination.

A “preventing attacks” report done by the Department of Education and the Secret Service showed that more than half of the attackers involved in high-profile mass shootings demonstrated some interest in violence, whether it was through movies, video games, books or other media. That was about 59 percent. But there was no one common type of interest in violence indicated.

Instead, the attackers’ interest in

violent themes took various forms. Twenty-seven percent of the attackers had exhibited an interest in violent movies, and about one-eighth, or 12 percent, of the attackers exhibited an interest in violent video games.

If you have the time to do the math like I do, that comes out to about 6.72 percent of total school shooters. Also, that puts movies at 15.93 percent, books at 14.16 percent and their own writings at 21.83 percent of the total 100 percent of school shooters. Summarily, video games are not statistically relevant.

The answer is simple: children and teenagers cannot purchase violence-filled Mature rated games unless they are 17.

It is up to the adults in children’s lives to keep violent games and other media away from kids. We are in control.

Video games not major factor, especially if we follow rules

Wow, the Town Council can’t even get their act together to be able to settle when to meet. I won-

der how long they can draw this out.

You know it might be better for the town if they don’t ever meet until they can be replaced in the next election.

Kudos to coach Jimmie Howell

— 500 wins is a huge milestone.

We have always appreciated the time you spent with our kids here at Mt. Vernon.

Beware of invoices being deliv-ered to property owners in Highland Springs asking for HOA dues. There is no evidence that an HOA has authority to

operate or enforce covenants in that neighborhood.

Indiana HOAs are required to prepare an annual budget and provide notice to its members before they solicit money; they should conduct meetings and hold elections as well. Don’t be a victim.

As I stared at the eye — and it stared back at me — there was an electric tingling creeping slowly up my arm, like when you touch a snake on a dare.

“What do I do?!” I whispered to Brian.

“I don’t know. I’ve never seen that happen before.”

It seemed like hours, but was only a few seconds, when I

finally realized why the woman wasn’t getting up. She wasn’t looking for her purse or her cane. She only wanted one thing. So I got to say that sen-tence that only one person in the entire world will ever get to say in all of history:

“Ma’am, I’ve got your eye.”She popped right up, relieved,

and said, “Oh, thank you, honey. I was looking for that.” She held out her hand, and I gave her back her eye. (There’s another one.) She gathered up her other things, and went on

her way.I stared at Brian, hand still

outstretched, and finally said, “I really can’t think of any-thing to say now, so I’ll just say good-bye. I just need to— I mean, I should— that is, I’m gonna just, well, go.”

I went back to my room with a severe case of the willies that didn’t subside until I finally fell asleep, several hours later. But as I drifted off, I comforted myself with one thought — at least this wasn’t a morticians’ conference.

HERE’S HOW IT WORKS: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

County, landowner reach impasse on roundaboutBy MARIBETH VAUGHN

[email protected]

MT. COMFORT — The contro-versial roundabout on Mt. Comfort Road must go through another hur-dle before it is built: The final piece of property to be acquired to build it may go before a jury.

This is the first time in memory that Hancock County officials will take an eminent domain case all the way to trial.

At issue is the land on the north-west corner of CRs 600N and 300W. The 1.124 acres includes the El Nopal restaurant.

All of the other properties at the intersection have been sold to county government, but county officials and landowner Karen Beeson can’t agree on how much the land is worth.

Commissioners had the land appraised at $561,200, but court-appointed appraisers say the land is worth far more: $831,600, a differ-ence of more than $270,000.

Commissioners say they want to get the best value for the property, especially because they are spend-ing tax dollars to acquire it. But Beeson’s attorney, Joe Hammes,

said the court-appointed apprais-ers were independent and gave an unbiased view of how much the land is worth.

Both parties tried mediation last week, but to no avail.

“The parties did not get very close in my estimation, and that’s where it left off,” Hammes said.

Commissioners voted unani-mously Jan. 15 to take the case to a jury trial, and a trial date is set for Aug. 12. Commissioner Tom Stevens, who sat through the medi-ation process, said he is optimistic the trial will result in a better cost for the county.

“When you look at the dollars per acre that this is appraised at, I just cannot imagine the jury going higher than what we have (it) appraised at,” Stevens said.

Eminent domain is the process through which government pur-chases land to make way for streets, buildings or utilities. Commissioner Brad Armstrong said most of the county’s eminent domain cases over the years have involved minor parcels, as the county only needed a few feet to expand roads, for example.

But the proposed roundabout is

large, with multiple lanes, and it required the purchase of seven properties. Plus, Armstrong adds that the land is expensive: The area just off of the expanded I-70 corri-dor is marked for economic growth.

“I think probably the reason we haven’t had a lot of them go to trial is we haven’t bought a lot of prop-erty with the value than at that intersection,” Armstrong said. “It’s expensive ground – hugely expen-sive ground.”

The roundabout project has been several years in the making. After concerns from property owners and schools at several public meet-ings, county officials have been at odds over whether to even contin-ue the project.

While Armstrong and some county council members pointed out that the money used for buy-ing right-of-way could be used elsewhere in the county to improve aging rural roads, the majority of elected officials said the project should keep moving forward.

Construction of the roundabout will be funded mostly with a fed-eral grant. The grant, however, cannot be used to buy land.

Funds from the tax increment finance district will pay for $1.5 million of right-of-way acquisi-tion, and anything over that will be paid with highway department money.

Last year, three property owners would not agree to offers made by the county, so Hancock Superior Court 1 appointed three new appraisers to reassess the value of the land. The appraisals for the three pieces of land – including two properties owned by Beeson – came in more than $750,000 higher than county officials expected, and county commissioners have been working to negotiate the cost of land acquisition ever since.

Armstrong said he remains against the roundabout project, but he voted in favor of the case going before a jury because it could mean a better price for the county.

“Obviously, our job is to buy that ground at the best price that we can. That’s our job for the tax-payer, not to go out and overpay for ground,” he said

Overall, costs for the land at the roundabout location have been skyrocketing. To date, county

commissioners have agreed to pay a total of $1.4 million for the other six properties at the intersection. That’s roughly $563,000 more than the commissioners’ original appraisals said all of the land was worth.

But Stevens said he’s fairly pleased commissioners have been able to negotiate down the court-appointed appraisals of the other properties.

While a jury date is already set for the northwest corner, Hammes said he’s holding out hope that the mat-ter can still be settled out of court.

Hammes pointed out that a price for the northeast corner, also owned by Beeson and Ann Elsbury, was negotiated. Commissioners agreed to pay $515,000 for just less than one acre. That’s $82,000 more than the original appraisal.

He said since a price for that property was successfully negoti-ated, the price for Beeson’s prop-erty on the northwest side could be settled as well before it goes to court.

Hammes said he will be meeting with the county’s attorney, Yasmin Stump, about settling the case before it goes to trial.

We’re just around the corner

By JOE [email protected]

McCORDSVILLE — The McCordsville Volunteer Fire Department invited the communi-ty to celebrate its 60 years of fight-ing fires with a special event at the station Sunday, Jan. 20.

Volunteer firefighters provided tours of the firehouse and the equipment while serving cake and refreshments to guests who want-ed to get a better look at the local department.

“You don’t know what to expect but we had a steady crowd come through,” firefighter Ray Hashley said during the event.

Mostly, the event went off with-out a hitch. But the 60th anniver-sary of the McCordsville Volunteer Fire Department was briefly inter-rupted when a large barn fire near Greenfield required the assistance of many nearby fire departments, including McCordsville. The fire required the use of the depart-ment’s water tanker, which was used to quell the blaze.

For Fire Chief Tom Alexander, Hashley and the rest of the depart-ment, the celebration gave the town the chance to celebrate 60 successful years of battling fires, being a part of the community and leading rescues while also offering another opportunity to present a gesture of goodwill to the commu-nity.

“We wanted to celebrate 60 years of firefighting, but anytime you can get the community to be a big-ger part of it, the better,” Hashley said.

While many residents and town leaders turned out to help the de-partment celebrate, old friends of the department stopped by, too. Guest Herman Schaekel was one of

the 12 original founding members of the department in the early 1950s.

“There were just the 12 of us on the department at the time,” Schaekel said.

Happy to help the fire depart-ment honor its history, Schaekel recalled its early history and his

McCordsville FD celebrates 60 years of serviceLooking back: Former firefighter Herman Schaekel, McCordsville Fire Chief Tom Alexander and firefighter Ray Hashley talk about the history of the department on Sunday afternoon at the 60-year celebration.

first few days as a volunteer fire-fighter.

“We bought a gasoline tank trunk from Toasty (Gary) Sharrett in Fortville and that was our first,” Schaekel said.

The tank was filled with water, and the former gas pump on the side of the truck acted as a pres-sure switch for the tank.

“But I was only on it for about 10 years,” he said.

Schaekel left the department in the early 1960s to begin his career on the railroad. And though the department started out with just a handful of guys and a borrowed tanker, it has become a 30-member strong outfit with eyes toward add-ing to the ranks.

“We’re always looking for poten-tial new members,” Alexander said.

The criterion is simple. Volun-teers need to live in the McCords-ville area and must be through high school.

“For somebody who is commit-ted, we will train them,” Hashley said.

photographs with a lot of information about Hancock County.

“It was a conception for about two years,” Skvarenina said.

Many of the postcards come from private collections and have not been published previously.

“I met Joe Seiter at the Wanamaker Library at a meeting of the Wanamaker Historical Society about three years ago,” Skvarenina said. “We started talking about postcards, and he’s an avid postcard collec-tor, and I said, ‘I have a bunch of Fortville postcards.’”

Seiter had a few hundred historical Hancock County photos. Skvarenina sought to use them for his book idea. He then began contacting other friends, such as Sue Baker, Charlie White and Bessie Jo Fischer, to fill out the collection.

Skvarenina previously has taken his col-lection of historical Fortville photos to the Fortville-Vernon Township Library. He had to collect them again to begin work on the book.

“I put the two together and that’s how the book came about,” Skvarenina said. “My postcard collection is up at the Fortville Library for use.”

The new book encompasses all of Hancock County, from Shirley to Old McCordsville to Cumberland and Cephas Fort’s Town.

Created March 1, 1828, and named for the first signer of the Declaration of Independence, Hancock County has a unique tradition in the story of Indiana,

Skvarenina said. Its farmland beginnings gave way to the industrial boom, and Skvarenina’s new book chronicles the his-tory of the county from 1880 to now, provid-ing a postcard viewpoint of local heritage, celebrations and people.

“I worked on this for a while,” he said.Several rewrites were required as pic-

tures changed and were moved around the book. It was nothing new to Skvarenina. He has written 12 books, six magazine articles, one pamphlet and he has been a consulting historian in a video for Purdue University called Black Purdue, about the black lead-ers and contributors in the history of Purdue.

Skvarenina has started two historical col-lections: one at the Fortville-Vernon Township Library and the second at the

Hancock County Public Library in Greenfield.

“Fortville and Vernon Township was an agricultural center for a long time,” Skvarenina said. “It’s interesting. We’ve gone to beans and corns and hog farming. One time, it was all dairy and tomatoes. There has been a whole change in the agri-cultural venue of this community.”

While doing research in the Fortville area, Skvarenina tried to find Brewster Park in Fortville, but he ran into problems: no one knew where the park once was. Older folks in town were able to point him in the right direction. And that is just one example of Skvarenina’s efforts to track down information for the book.

“This codifies the history and gets some stuff down. History is always a changing thing.”

Hancock County used to be a very differ-ent place.

“The first two elections where there was a Republican Party, the Democrats took the county,” Skvarenina said.

That included the first election of President Abraham Lincoln, when Hancock County voters supported his challenger Stephen Douglas.

“Oliver Morton, the Civil War governor, didn’t win out here. This was a Union County, but there was a thing called the Unionist Party. This started out as a Democratic county, but over the years became more Republican.”

That’s part of the hidden history of Hancock County that Skvarenina works to uncover.

“I am writing a lot of organizational his-tory because people ask me. Like, I’ll be writing the history of the Greenfield Sertoma Club; I wrote the history of the Lutheran Service Club. And those aren’t going to be bestsellers, but somebody’s got to do that,” Skvarenina said.

Chronicling a location or organization’s history is an important part of understand-ing where they have been and where they might go from here.

“I’m a big believer in above-ground archaeology,” Skvarenina said. “I think in communities like Fortville and Shirley, you can still go out and look at the history. Not all of it has been torn down. And you can learn from that. You don’t have to dig into the ground to find the artifacts of the past. They’re all around us.”

Skvarenina has been appreciative of the support he has received from Hancock County residents in his efforts of collecting and explaining local history. But he does it because people have the right to know from where they came.

“Their history deserves to be told,” Skvarenina said. “I want people to appreci-ate their history and appreciate the com-munity they live in.”

New outdoor fields begin construction in early spring.

the Vernon Township severe weather sirens. There was no addi-tional cost to connect with Hamilton County.

The connection with Hamilton County emergency officials has created an issue: they test the sys-tem at about 11 a.m. every Friday, and the sirens themselves spin around during the alert.

Nolte and the township board did not want to the sirens spinning in the colder months, when they could potentially be damaged by ice and cold.

“We don’t need to trip these in the dead of winter,” Nolte said.

The updated equipment was installed with a 15-minute signal, which checks components and makes sure everything is running smoothly with all 11 sirens four times per hour.

The company that sold the sirens, Federal Signal, has said testing the sirens in the winter will not harm the system.

“We’ve asked them to look into it,” Nolte said.

The township board also addressed problems with the fire departments. Members of the Fortville Volunteer Fire Department who have been laid off from their civilian full-time duties will then ask for unemployment benefits from the state, because they are officially unemployed but still working with the volunteer fire departments.

In those cases, the township can be responsible for up to 28 percent of their unemployment payments, and the amount of the total benefit package is determined by how much the former employee made at his or her primary job. That is all mandated by the state and

Workforce Development, and the township is brought to Workforce Development’s attention when the person filing for benefits is asked to list all employers in the paper-work.

The members of the township board in attendance last week, Gary Sharrett and Tim Plank, agreed that it wasn’t necessarily right that the township is on the hook to cover that cost.

The township has the option of ignoring those requests but then could face monetary penalties, even as it addresses individuals simply trying to work the system. The payment requirements come in quarterly, and Nolte said the only likely solution was to turn over the state mandate.

The township board also looked into the LOIT (local option income tax) put in place in Hancock County and distributed to the towns and city.

The purpose of the funds is to support emergency services, but

Vernon Township officials have never received the money despite requesting it from the towns.

Nolte said he plans to again request a draw of the money for the township, since it supplies Vernon Township with fire depart-ment coverage and emergency medical services. The continued costs of operating the township’s emergency services could create a small tax increase if the township does not receive additional LOIT funds.

“We’d like to build, too, and that’s not happening,” Nolte said.

The new year also brings with it the township’s 2012 financial report, which showed more than $400,000 in the recreation fund. Nolte said he sought a way to spend some money and possibly build a park or add amenities to the town-ship.

“It’s something we need to con-sider,” Nolte said. “We need to do something on the recreation fund.”

Houck leads in win over Guerin Catholic

Rachel Houck scored a career-best 26 points as Mt. Vernon cruised to a 70-45 win Tuesday, Jan. 15 on the road.

Houck also had five rebounds, five assists and six steals for the Marauders, who jumped out to a 14-4 advantage after a quarter and were ahead 40-18 at halftime.

Sydney Shelton notched 22 points, five rebounds, three assists and three steals. Ellie Balbach reg-istered a season-high nine points and five rebounds.

MV defense bottles up G-C, secures HHC

FORTVILLE — With its leading scorer out indefinitely with a knee injury, Mt. Vernon knew its offense would take a step back.

But, one thing that hasn’t suf-fered is the team’s defense.

The Marauders limited Greenfield-Central to its lowest scoring output of the season in a 44-29 victory Friday, Jan. 18, in Fortville, a triumph that cemented MV’s share of its third straight Hoosier Heritage Conference championship.

3A No. 6 Mt. Vernon (14-3, 6-0 HHC) hasn’t lost a conference game since falling at Rushville Nov. 20, 2009, a span of 20 games.

“We’ve had a great run and I’ve had a great group of girls,” said MV coach Julie Shelton, whose team can clinch the outright HHC crown Jan. 26 at Delta. “I’ve had a lot of great players who’ve worked hard for this and deserve this.

“I couldn’t be happier for the team.”

Play was even through the first eight minutes, but the Marauders turned up the defensive heat near the end of the frame and through the second quarter.

The result was just one G-C point — a free throw by Brooke Bell — in the second period. The hosts took a 19-10 lead into inter-mission, with the Cougars notch-ing four more turnovers (14) than points.

The blue and gold were undone by live ball turnovers — as opposed to the dead ball variety, which stop play — handing MV easy scoring opportunities.

“We talk about that every day,” G-C coach Doug Laker said of his team’s mistakes. “If you’re going to have a turnover, throw it into the 10th row.”

Sydney Shelton spearheaded an MV run to begin the third. The freshman point guard fed Ellie Balbach for an easy two, then con-verted a layup and a 3-pointer, forcing the visitors to call timeout.

All the while, Greenfield-Central couldn’t find the bottom of the net.

From the one-minute mark of the first quarter until 4:35 remained in the third, the Cougars did not make one shot from the field. G-C threw the ball away on its first three second-half posses-sions, finishing the game with 24 turnovers.

And by the end of the third quar-ter, the game was out of reach. Shelton tallied 12 of her 18 points in the frame, and MV was out in front 41-17.

The Marauders are playing with-out leading scorer Erica Moore (18.9 ppg), whose right knee injury has caused her to miss the past four games

Against G-C, the black and gold registered its lowest point total of the season, but it recognizes that defense will have to carry it until Moore comes back for sectional play, though the junior’s return is far from a sure thing.

“We’ve talked about the last sev-eral weeks, that we don’t have a lot of offense with Erica out,” Julie Shelton explained. “We don’t have a lot inside. And if we get into any foul trouble, or if teams key on certain people, or we’re not hitting shots… we’ve got to get it done with our defense.”

Shelton and Rachel Houck have emerged to shoulder the scoring load.

For the 16th time this year, Shelton scored in double digits Friday. Houck, who equaled Shelton’s game-high total of 18 Friday night, broke double fig-ures for the ninth straight contest.

“(Sydney and Rachel) have defi-nitely picked it up,” Shelton offered. “It’s been difficult on them because with Erica out, every team is keying on them.

“They’ve done a great job.”Laker said his goal was to keep

Shelton and Houck to 16 points apiece. No one else on MV scored more than two points.

“They got some transition (points) on us, but we did a good job,” said the fifth-year G-C coach. “That was our expectation, so that’s not bad. We just have to score a little more.”

The 4A Cougars (7-10, 3-3 HHC) entered Friday winners of three straight, their longest win streak of the season. They will close the season against Yorktown (13-4, 2-3

HHC), Whiteland (8-9) and 4A No. 12 Greenwood (14-3).

“We finish up with a great schedule. All three games that we can compete and have a chance in,” Laker said. “You can tell the improvement from midseason until now. We are getting better.”

Mt. Vernon’s next tilt is a nonleague match at New Castle (6-10) before heading to Delta (3-12).

The game doubled as the last home appearance for Balbach, Houck and Krista Shockley, three seniors who have seen the program go 76-14 in their four years.

“It’s another great group of seniors,” Shelton said of the trio. “We lost four seniors last year and everyone kind of wondered how we’d be and I think we’ve had a good season this year because of those seniors.”

WHO DOES IT?

Classified Advertising467-6000

We would like to take this time to ex-tend our heartfelt gratitude to all who came together to honor our wonderful and beloved son and brother, Logan Riley Stafford, who was taken from us after his unexpected passing.

Thank you to everyone who shared in our sorrow with all of the thoughts, kind words, prayers, cards, donations

of food, offerings to help in any and every way, and to those who cried with us. There are just too many to list, but you know who you are. Many thanks specifi cally to Pastor Rick Cochran and the congregation of The Bridge Church, the staff of Seals Funeral Home, the Mt. Vernon High School Choir, Sgt. Craig from the United States Air Force, and countless others for all that was done to help create a celebration of Logan’s life. Please know you are forever appreciated. Thank you all from the bottom of our broken hearts.

The Family of Logan Stafford
