Getting children to and fromschool safely is definitely a vil-lage effort in Evendale.
The Village of Evendale,(Recreation Department andPolice) is collaborating withPrinceton City Schools to devel-op a Safe Routes to School trav-el plan for Evendale Elemen-tary School, Michele Gott-schlich said.
Gottschlich is a pediatrichealth care specialist, Connect-ing Active Communities Coali-tion representative, SafeRoutes to School co-leader andEvendale resident. The SafeRoutes to School travel plan is aprocess designed to enhancethe safety and health of schoolkids by encouraging activetransportation, she said.
On the morning of Dec. 17, agroup of volunteers and staffmembers from the Village of
Evendale, Princeton CitySchool District, the Ohio De-partment of Transportation andHamilton County Planning andothers conducted a walking au-
dit of the area around EvendaleElementary School as part ofthe planning process.
The purpose of the audit is toidentify obstacles preventing
some students from walking toschool and issues/obstacles forstudents who are walkers, TomArnold from ODOT said. Theaudit is one step in creating aSRTS travel plan, which is thefocus of the community, he said.ODOT doesn’t always partici-pate in the process, but is al-ways willing to be involved.
By establishing a travel plan,the group is also increasing itseligibility for funding opportu-nities from ODOT and Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana RegionalCouncil of Governments. Thereare two areas where funding ispossible, infrastructure andnon-infrastructure, Arnoldsaid. Infrastructure grants pro-vide funding for items includ-ing signage, bike racks, andsidewalks. Non-infrastructuregrants are for items such aseducational materials.
The SRTS initiative is part ofthe Princeton City School Dis-trict’s ongoing commitment to
safety and security, Director ofSecurity for Princeton CitySchools Steve Castator said.The objective is for students toarrive to and from school safely.
“This district has made astrong commitment to safety inour facilities,” he said. “This isan extension of that.”
Woodlawn Elementarylearned that it will receive$431,000 from the ODOT SafeRoutes to School Grant Pro-gram to develop sidewalks atthe bottom of Riddle Road lead-ing to the elementary schooland Springfield Pike, Castatorsaid. Glendale and Sharonvilleelementary schools are work-ing on applications parallel toEvendale’s effort, he said. Thework being done at Evendalewill serve as a template forGlendale and Sharonville, Cas-tator said.

A collaboration among third-and first-graders at Elm Schoolhas added up to a lesson in math,a computer app and much more.
Garry Hayden’s third-gradestudents worked with RichardSchaen’s first-grade class to cre-ate a math app for kindergart-ners to learn math basics includ-ing addition, subtraction and es-timating, as well as math terms.
The project, which followedthe concepts of STEM, was moreof a TEAM effort.
Incorporating technology, en-gineering, the arts and math, thestudents bonded together to planthe week-long project.
Elm parent Janet Zydneyhelped with the technologypiece, as students learned how touse images and graphics, and de-termined where they should belocated on the page, using Tiny-Tap, an iPad app that createsgames for primary students.
“So much of the technologythat schools are using passively,we wanted to use it in a way to ac-
tively engage them and collabo-rate and foster their creativity,instead of them just watchingvideos,” Schaen said. “In thiscase, they were creating gamesthat other students would use.”
The students were kinder-gartners at Elm School.
“It went very well,” Schaensaid. “The kindergartners really

enjoyed having thingsmade for them, but thereal benefit was the proc-ess as the first and thirdgraders learned the im-portance of planning aspart of designing theapps.
Schaen loaded themath games on the first-
grade webpage,elmgradeone.weebly.com, under the Memories tab.
“For the third-graders,one key for them was be-ing leaders,” Hayden said.“We walked them throughand trained them in usingthe app that we used tocreate the app. They hadtheir confidence built upas they started working.”
“It was neat that therewas flexibility in the pro-ject,” Zydney said of the
experimentation andlearning.
As the students tookover the process, teachersbecame facilitators.That’s a signal of a suc-cessful project, Schaensaid.
“It’s not often that youget to have differentgrade levels collaboratein meaningful ways,” hesaid. “In this case, it was ameaningful collabora-tion.”

project is two-fold, Gott-schlich said. First, Even-dale’s bike and pedestrianmaster plan describedpriority planning needsassociated with key vil-lage destinations includ-ing the elementary
school, she said. The mas-ter plan identified grantsto support active trans-portation improvementssuch as SRTS grants.
Second, Evendale is ac-tive within ConnectingActive Communities Co-alition, a 10-commuity co-alition that collaborateson active transportation/health initiatives, Gott-schlich said. Last year theCACC worked with theUniversity of Cincinnation a transportation pro-ject from the SRTS per-spective and found manyopportunities/concernsthat could be addressedby SRTS projects. This re-sulted in creation of aCACC Princeton SRTSsubcommittee.
The evaluation and as-
sessment process for theEvendale ElementarySchool SRTS plan willcontinue over the nextcouple of months with a
goal of having a travelplan in place by the March1 ODOT grant applicationdeadline for STRS pro-jects.

The Archdiocese ofCincinnati’s largest fund-raising campaign in 50years reached its $130million goal this week andis ready to start pumpingmoney into Catholicschools, parishes, socialservices and othercauses.
The windfall, overseenby the new Catholic Com-munity Foundation, is theresult of a yearlong pub-lic relations blitz in all ofthe archdiocese’s 19 coun-ties.
Though the big push inparishes is over, the cam-paign will run for anotherfour years and is expect-ed to bring in significant-ly more money before itends.
The total pledged sofar is $134 million, andchurch officials say alarge portion of that al-ready has been collected.
They say about 85 per-cent of pledges are typi-cally fulfilled, so they willkeep working to collectthe promised amount andto seek new donors.
In a video that willsoon be shared with par-ishes, Archbishop DennisSchnurr praised the re-gion’s Catholics for step-ping up.
“You have ensuredthat the Archdiocese ofCincinnati can continue tomeet the changing needsof its people,” Schnurrsaid. “Because of yourgenerosity, the archdio-cese is in a strong positionto move forward.”
The campaign, knownas “One Faith, One Hope,One Love,” represents adramatic shift in the waythe archdiocese raisesmoney. While past fund-raisers were run directlythrough the archdiocese,this campaign was over-seen by the new founda-tion.
The church still willcontrol the money, but thefoundation will overseethe campaign and dis-bursements. The goal is torun fundraising like anyother private charity,with more public ac-countability and a boardof directors comprised oflay people, priests,
church leaders and thearchbishop.
The change wasmade in part to im-prove efficiency, butalso to provide moretransparency. Some layCatholic groups havecomplained for yearsabout a perceived lackof openness in churchfinances and decision-making, especially inthe wake of the clergyabuse crisis a decadeago.
The foundationstructure is increasing-ly common among U.S.Catholic dioceses.
Church officialshope the foundation’swork provides a morestable source of sup-port for its priorities,including its schoolsystem, which has42,000 students and isthe sixth largest Catho-lic system in the nationby enrollment.
Schools will getabout half of the first$130 million. About $26million will go to par-ishes to help pay forministries or improvefacilities. A retirementfund for priests will get$13 million, charitiesand social services willget $10 million, and $16million will help ex-pand vocations and addpriests.
Parishes are receiv-ing money from thecampaign, and churchofficials say more iscoming.
“It will be a trickleturning into an openspigot,” said PaulClark, spokesman forthe campaign.

tacted the city last yearabout moving to the park,but Funk said it was notready for such a largescale event.
“This is just one of thegroup that has ap-proached us in the last
Summit Park is closeto hosting its first non-city sponsored multi-daymusic festival.
Blue Ash City Councilapproved an ordinance toallow City Manager Da-vid Waltz to negotiatewith PromoWest Produc-tions to allow Buckle UpMusic Festival in thepark in 2016.
“We have been work-ing on this contract thisSeptember 2014. Thisevent was held in down-town Cincinnati in 2014and they came to us soonafter that and wanted totake advantage of Sum-mit Park. They thoughtthe event fit better in ourdemographics out here,”Parks and Recreation Di-rector Chuck Funk said.
The country musicfestival is limited to30,000 people a day. Funksaid the event will befenced in so the rest ofthe park, including theplayground, will remainopen to the public.
“There will not be anytraffic on site, all theparking lots will closed.They will be negotiatingfor parking around thearea, like we do for ourevents. They are plan-ning on running shuttleslike we do for a lot of ourevents,” Funk said, add-ing the festival is using alot of the same methodsand contractors that thecity has for when it hashosted large events, suchas Red, White and BlueAsh and Taste of BlueAsh, in Summit Park.
PromoWest will eitherpay the city $100,000 torent the park for twodays or $125,000 to rent itfor three days.
The festival will be thefirst weekend in Augustand organizers have untilApril to inform the city ifit will be two or threedays.
“The cost for our ser-vices are included intheir fee. When we didthe original calculation itwas for three days and itis about $25,000 to$30,000 in cost for us. So,what we will gross offthis is somewhere in the$75,000 range,” Funksaid.
Funk said the parkhosted about 13 non-citysponsored events, mostly5K runs, last year but thiswill be the first multi-daymusic festival.
Buckle Up also con-
couple of years. Last yearthe phone to ringing offthe hook to see who wewould put in there andhow many people” Coun-cilman Robert Buckmansaid.
Council also approvedan agreement for the cityto negotiate with The
Senate, in Over-The-Rhine, to open a locationin the second communitybuilding.
The Senate will bepaying the city $110,890in rent a year for its firstfive years in the park and$121,522 per year for itssecond five years.
The Senate will bejoining Brown Dog Café,which will be in the othercommunity building.

Out here on my little patch of heaven, I’minto what is called “all seasons gardening.” Idon’t stop growing produce because it’s cold
out. I have salad greens andparsley in my window flowerboxes.
We’re expecting single digitsand that will mean the end ofthem until spring. But for now, Ilike strolling a few feet outsidemy kitchen door to harvestgreens as I need them. Theytaste so good with my Italiandressing.

Blender Italiandressing for salad
Put in blender andblend until smooth:
3/4 cup oil1/4 cup white wine
vinegar1 clove garlic3 tablespoons shredded
Parmesan1/2 teaspoon sugarSalt and pepper1/2 teaspoon dried
oregano1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
(or teaspoon of Dijon)Few sprigs parsley if you
have it.
Amish sweet friendship bread
Guess what was requested by a “fan.” Friendship bread! Talk about a vintage recipe, thisis it. I remember getting my first loaf along with a batch of starter from my friend, Bert, whohas a farm down the road. The whole idea of friendship bread is just that, to share. And it’s atimely lesson in food chemistry for the kids, too.
To me, this is more like a cake than a bread. The whole kitchen will be perfumed with aheavenly aroma as it bakes.
The starter takes 10 days. It’s fun to watch it bubble, smell yeasty and ferment as the daysprogress. Be sure and give the sourdough starter recipe along with the bread recipe to recipi-ents. I have a feeling they’ll love the bread so much that they’ll start their own batch of starterto share! I also like to give slices of the bread with the recipe for sampling.
First, make the sourdough starter:Leave this starter on the counter, don’t refrigerate. Put in large bowl, glass or ceramic,
not metal (some metals interfere with fermentation) covered lightly. Or put in very largesealed baggie. If air forms squeeze it out. Instead of stirring, squeeze bag. The little ones loveto do the squeezing.
The starter will have a yeasty/sourdough aroma and will bubble up at times, especiallyafter the days you “feed” it. In between it may look a little flat, but that’s OK.
Day one:Stir together:
1 cup flour1 cup sugar1 cup milk1 envelope (.25 oz) active yeast stirred into 1/4 cup warm water (let it foam a bit before
stirring into flour, sugar and milk)Days 2 through 5: stir with spoonDay 6: stir in 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup milkDays 7 through 9: stir with spoonDay 10: add 1 cup flour, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup milk and blend well.
Then divide the starter into 1 cup measures. Keep 1 cup for yourself to make bread andgive others away in very large baggies with recipe. (I can’t tell you exactly how many cupsyou’ll get depending upon the aggressiveness of your starter, etc. but you should get at least 4cups).
Now here’s the recipe to make Amish sweet friendship bread. I have another recipe thatdoesn’t use pudding. But I have to say this one seems to be the favorite.
Beat together:
1 cup starter3 large eggs1 cup oil1/2 cup milk2 teaspoons vanilla
In a separate bowl, stir together and then beat with egg mixture:
2 cups flour1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder1/2 teaspoon baking soda1/2 teaspoon salt1/2 cup chopped nuts (opt)1 large box instant vanilla pudding1 cup sugar + extra for pan2 teaspoons cinnamon + extra for pan
Preheat oven to 325. Spray 2 loaf pans, 9-by5. Sprinkle bottom and sides generously withextra sugar and cinnamon. Dump out excess. Pour batter in pans. Bake 50-60 minutes or untiltoothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Gilding the lily:Sprinkle top with a bit of sugar and cinnamon before baking.

A publication of
Jan. 6 questionWhat is the best way to handle
the Syrian refugee situation?
“I honestly do not know, butwhatever it is, just though it isopposite of Obama’s.”
M.A.M.
”Whatever’s not getting done- at least not as fast/effectively/efficiently as possible - can allbe dumped at those feet-drag-ging sophomoronics in our Con-gress. Don’t know if you happento be aware of this or not, butour POTUS is not a Monarch; hispowers are both shared and lim-ited, as are those of the othertwo coequal branches; besideswhich, they don’t happen to beprovided with ‘magic wands’
upon taking office.”J.B.
“There are many refugeesfleeing Syria. I would think thatmany other Muslim nations ofthe Middle East would step up to
help these folks. “Most of those Middle East-
ern nations are rich from oil andof course subscribe to the Mus-lim Bible, the Quran (or Koran).I suspect there is something intheir ‘bible’ where Allah recom-mends an act of brotherhood.Did you ever wonder why theMuslims are leaving theirhomeland and migrating to non-Muslim countries in Europeetc? “
T.D.T.
Dec. 23/30 questionLooking to 2016, if you can
grant one wish for your commu-nity, what would it be?
“My wish for the community
in 2016 is that we all be a littlemore open-minded and empa-thetic with people who are dif-ferent from ourselves. Thereare many flowers in our com-munity garden. Each has itsown beauty.”
A.T.
“My wish would be that allthe Colerain residents realizehow lucky we are to live here.No. 1 - We are blessed with the‘best’ EMS/fire departments inHamilton County. No. 2 - Ourroad department. I am alwaysamazed when it snows, howquickly our roads are cleared.They do such a good job. With-out their good work, our EMS/fire department and policecould not get around to do their
jobs. So, Thank you to both de-partments for all of your hardwork.”
J.R.
“For 2016 my wish is thateach of us, ordinary people, stepup and take back our countryfrom leaders and others in pow-er, whether they are in politics,our schools, our churches, ourbusinesses, our communities.We need to stand up to the con-tinual lies and scare tactics andsay enough is enough. We needto love and care for each otherand not give power to those whopromote divisiveness and hate.

Jan. 29 began like any otherlate mid winter day in the Appa-lachian foothills.
The gray overcast cloudssuggested another dreary doseof rain and a chilling breeze.Little thought had been given tothe impact of the persistentdeluge of rain that prevailed thepast three days by the boy whowas stirring from an undis-turbed slumber.
His first venture outsideinvolved the usual few stepsnecessary to retrieve the dailynewspaper, which had beendelivered much earlier in themorning. The sleepy-eyed ef-fort to retrieve The CourierJournal masked any possibilityof noticing anything unusualabout the day except the sightof a few puddles forming in oddplaces next to the sidewalk.
Ready for school his fatherasked him to drive the threecars lined in front of the lightblue, white trimmed A-framehouse to higher ground. By thetime he had moved the thirdvehicle his parents had begun totransfer food, clothing and oth-er essentials across the gardenpath that linked their housewith his grandparents two storybrick home at the foot of SugarHill.
The flood waters rose at arelentless pace of one foot perhour between 2 a.m. and 10 a.m.Every home on the street be-
came vulner-able to thewaters searchfor a boundary.
The familynow realizedthat their homewould soonbecome inun-dated by a lakecreated bynatural forcesnot seen in a
least 50 years. Frantically, theypiled priceless keepsakes, pho-tos and even a baseball cardcollection on beds, chests,shelves or anything else seen asa dry refuge from the risingtide. Standing in a shallow poolof water on the bedroom floor,the young boy grabbed twodrawers of clothing and belovedcollie dog, then waded acrossthe path to the safe haven of thegrandparents’ home.
When they arrived, theywere joined by two neighborswho had come to the samehouse seeking shelter duringthe coming catastrophe. Bynoon the basement of the two-story double brick structurewas completely flooded andwater had inched above thebaseboards on the first floor.Provisions were hastily deter-mined for everyone to move tothe four bedrooms and bathupstairs, their residence untilthe next day. A local evening
radio newscast detailed theflooded misery friends andneighbors endured.
The second floor windowsprovided an incredible pan-oramic view of the muddy seathat inundated familiar streetsand lawns. Below a few boaterstook advantage of the once in alifetime occurrence to racethrough the newly formed ca-nals creating a turbulence sopowerful window panes indoomed houses were shatteredlike the lives of their despon-dent residents.
After darkness fell on thestricken community, the ma-rooned boy and his dog peeredthrough a second floor dormerwindow overlooking the eeriesight below. A bedroom light ina house down the street had justbecome visible as the murkywaters began their mercifulretreat.
Above, the soft glow of acrescent moon illuminated theclear frigid night ahead only togive way to a new dawn thenext day. In that single state ofunforgettable togetherness,they shared a quiet communalsense that their lives wouldnever be the same.

When I look around a five-mile radius of Wanglaw/Wang-news, which is in downtownSilverton, I can think of at least20 Asian American restaurants(mostly Chinese followed byThai, South Asian, Korean, Jap-anese, Vietnamese etc.). At 50miles there are hundreds.
According to omgfacts, thereare more Chinese restaurants inthe United States than the num-ber of McDonald’s, BurgerKings, Wendy’s, Domino’s, andPizza Huts combined. A morereliable database source per-haps iswww.crinus.org, whichestimates that in 2015 there aremore than 30,000 Chinese res-taurants in the USA with 914 ofthem in Ohio and 245 in Ken-tucky (the two total 1,159). Bearin mind these numbers pointonly to Chinese restaurants andif we include all Asian Amer-ican restaurants, there will bemore.
Asian American restaurantsare the longtime small busi-nesses, self started and mostlysuccessful enterprises in Great-
er Cincinnatiand NorthernKentucky (Ihave seen somefail too) andindeed ubiqui-tous to all ofthe USA. AsianAmerican res-taurants areimmigrant-worker and
minority owned.How is it no one mentions
Asian American restaurantswhen thinking and talking aboutthe shaping of the new Amer-ican economy, especially alongthe emergent thinking of theinclusive and cooperative econ-omy?
Are Asian American restau-rants so successful they aresimply taken as granted as partof the American economic land-scape? I myself do not thinkthey should ever be taken asgranted – they had to strive andovercome more hurdles, in-cluding language barriers andworse yet, deliberate exclusion,
to get to where they are. Somefail during hard times just asthe other businesses do. There-fore, Asian American restau-rants and their lesser knownbusiness model should be partof the discussion on inclusivecooperative economies in theUSA.
So, what is the secret Tao ofthe success of Asian Americanrestaurants? Right now, I willshare with you one ethic uponwhich many Asian Americanrestaurants base their success.Here it is, simple and not over-done:
First, excellence in selfstudy, raise strong family, buildinstitutions through properexample, and have peace withall under heaven.
While this may be my partic-ular interpretation for the mod-ern business reader of the PaxSinica, known to Chinese asping tian xia, I think Americacan get a great deal from thisConfucian ideal.

When that first day of thenew year arrives, we some-times look back on the yearpassing with fond memoriesor, if not, we skip the yearreview entirely, lookingtowards the coming of abrand new one.
We make these unbeliev-able New Year resolutionsand just hope we hit at leastone out of the five.
I have decided to look atthe reality of my motiva-tional spirit and aim a littlelower. For starters, yes theresolution exercising orlosing a few pounds is highon my list. People get totallycarried away with this. Theygo out and buy expensiveworkout outfits, invest ingym membership or evenset up their own basementworkout center including atreadmill…stationary bike,weights…the whole deal.They have put additionalpressure on themselves…in-cluding expensive equip-ment and membership feesriding on this resolution ofexercising/losing weight.
Many times high expecta-tions of daily hard workoutsdon’t happen, making youeven more depressed withfailure than before when youwere just sitting on couchwatching “The Biggest Los-er” show.
Look at this popular NewYear goal a new way. First,you must have something to“look forward to,” or a re-ward with each achieve-ment. My daughter was acompetitive swimmer and alot of her swimming buddieswore T-shirts with the slo-gan: “No pain, no gain.” BahHumbug!
This is why the workoutgyms clear out by February.You also need to look at thereality of your mental bodyimage your visioning. We arenot going to look like swim-suit models. My grandma
always toldme when Isat down atthe tableand mymom wouldgive methat “don’tyou dare”look as Itook anextra pieceof Grand-
ma’s chocolate cake…Grand-ma would say, “ah let the boyeat…a few extra poundswon’t kill him!”
I read somewhere thatactually people who carry alittle extra weight are theones who do the best in sur-viving surgeries, illnesses. Ialso read if you have a dog,you tend to be in bettershape, so already having adog, I’m automatically havea better body condition with-out so far even entering agym or getting on a tread-mill!
Now that you lower yourexpectations, it’s the motiva-tional part of exercise thatyou need to have fun withthis. So activities like golf (ifyou don’t ride around) canserve as exercise; shootingbasketball with your kids,walking/hiking with a frien-d...your new exercise dog.Face it, just doing anythingbesides sitting burns calo-ries. After workout, drink abeer or power nap. But real-ly, just feel good, no second-guessing; just like in the“Rocky” arms up in triumph,humming the movie’s themesong.
OK, on to more importantresolutions…maybe a tattoo?

Wyoming’s Charley Donnelly took second place at the MariemontInvitational Diving Meet Dec. 19.
WYOMING - With promisingshowings in early tournamentsat Blanchester and Norwood,the Wyoming High School wres-tling team appears ready forsome tournament take-downs inthe next two months.
Following their “small, butmighty” mantra, coach BrianPitman’s squad of 13 grapplershas seemingly improved eachtime on the mat.
“We started the year off slow,but these guys have really beenstepping up,” Pitman said. “Thecoaching staff couldn’t be morepleased with them.”
At Deer Park, Blanchesterand Norwood, the Cowboyshave had considerable successand champions. In the Norwoodmeet Jan. 2, sophomore YimaNyamor was champion at 138pounds. The brother of formerCowboy Alour Nyamor is out tochase his brother’s records.Alour Nyamor was a state quali-fier his senior year.
“He (Yima) has a greatchance to do that being just asophomore,” Pitman said.
Seniors Justin Shields and
Luke Kremzar were runners-upat Norwood and have led theCincinnati Hills League at 160and 170 pounds, respectively.Shields is currently working hisway to the 100-win mark.
Sophomore Ethan Tefs tookfourth at Norwood, juniorheavyweight Max Frankelthird, and Pitman’s junior son,Noah Pitman, finished third. Sixof Wyoming’s seven partici-pants placed, with seven pins inunder a minute and they wonseven matches in a row twiceduring the tournament.
Likewise in Blanchester,Wyoming won 67 percent oftheir head-to-head matches andNoah Pitman went 7-0 with fivepins.
Many of the Cowboys havesuccessful records, but some,like Tefs, have faced incrediblecompetition. At 9-9 after Nor-wood, Tefs had a pair of lossesby just two points.
“That was a tough 9-9 rightthere,” Pitman said. “He reallyworked hard to get those wins.Most of those losses have beenheartbreakers.”

Sherman’s game has come along way.
As a freshman and sopho-more basketball player atPrinceton High School, Sher-man, who’s committed to theUniversity of Massachusetts
Lowell, is the lone player re-maining from the Vikings’2014 Division I state champi-onship team - a team magni-fied by Kelsey Mitchell, one ofCincinnati’s greatest prepplayers who currently stars atOhio State with the second-highest scoring average (24.7)in the country.
Sherman’s established her-
self as one of the best scorersin the city, but it’s her work eth-ic that’s brought her along.She’s led the Vikings in scoringin each of the last two seasonsafter Mitchell’s departure, buther game differs drasticallyfrom the Buckeyes star.

guard. She can play thepoint and 2-guard,” sec-ond-year Princetoncoach Anthony Johnsonsaid. “We take advantageof that. It makes herchallenging to defend be-cause she’s good withoutthe ball and obviouslyshe’s good with the ball inher hands.”
Johnson said Sher-man’s game is differentthan Mitchell’s, but bothare rooted in hard work.
“(Markayla) and Kel-sey are not the sameplayer. Apples and or-anges,” said Johnson,who coached Mitchell ingrade school. “I’ve neverseen a player of KelseyMitchell’s magnitudewho works like she does.But Markayla is rightthere getting her time in.Any place, any thing shecan do to work her game,she does.”
Johnson said thatwork ethic is somethingpassed on from Mitchellto Sherman. Johnson’shoping that happensagain with the younglineup currently accom-panying Sherman on thecourt.
Sherman’s leadershipis equally as importantas her Greater MiamiConference-leading 21.2points per game.
“That’s the thing(leadership) where Mar-kayla comes in themost,” Johnson said.“We’re young … she’sable to bridge the gapfrom that state champi-onship to where we’re atand trying to go.”
The Vikings havethree seniors, and therest of the roster is filled
with freshman and soph-omores.
“A lot of it is experi-ence,” said Johnson inreference to Sherman’sprogression. “Being asenior, going through allthe ups and downs, fol-lowing Kelsey Mitchelland the rest of thoseyoung ladies — you can’thelp but get experience.
“For two years in arow she’s been our lead-ing scorer. Every teamcomes in every nightlooking for No. 13, trying
to shut her down.” In the GMC, a confer-
ence Johnson called “thebest in the state of Ohioand probably a few otherstates, too,” Shermanhasn’t retracted fromthat nightly pressure.
It’s only a matter oftime before Shermantrades her Princeton jer-sey for a new college jer-sey. Until then, she’llcontinue to help a youngteam learn the value ofwork and where it cantake them.

Team Canada won thepremier under-19 interna-tional lacrosse competi-tion, but their champion-ship series opponent re-turns to the Midwest withmore knowledge, experi-ence, and confidence in2016.
Team Ohio represent-ed the United States at theeighth Brogden Cup inTampa to kick off the newyear. The team, coachedby Moeller head coachSean McGinnis, featured11 local players. TeamOhio qualified for theBrogden Cup by winningthe Brine All-AmericanLacrosse National Classicin July.
The best-of-three se-ries against Canada didnot go the Americans’way. Team Canada wonthe first two matches, 14-9and 19-10. Team Ohio alsodropped an exhibitionagainst Team Florida, 8-6.It was still a special week-end for Team Ohio.
“We’re frustrated thatwe didn’t win a game, butour coaches and playersgot to have a great experi-ence,” said McGinnis.
“This has been a great op-portunity to learn and seelacrosse at a higher level.I definitely think the kidswill walk away from thisexperience seeing how la-crosse is played at thehighest level, which willhelp them as they getready for their next sea-son.”
Canada’s squad wascomprised of players se-lected from the OntarioJunior Men’s Field La-crosse League. Their ex-perience and talent wastoo much for Team Ohio,but the American players
will return home with tipspicked up from facingtheir international oppo-nent.
“It was a cool experi-ence to play with kids whoare going to top tierschools and to go againstdifferent styles of playthat we don’t get to seeback home,” Moeller sen-ior Jack Richey said. “Ilearned a lot of conceptsand plays that you don’tsee in American field la-crosse.”
Many of the Canadianplayers grew up playingindoor or box lacrossefrom a young age. Ohiohas been considered anup-and-coming state forlacrosse but it was not un-til this event that the restof North America fullytook notice. Both the headof the Brogden Cup and ofTeam Canada remarkedat how impressive it wasfor Ohio, not known as atraditional lacrosse hot-bed, to be representingTeam USA.
“It was great to repre-sent our region and statein this event,” McGinnissaid. “Who’d have thoughtthat we’d have a teamfrom Ohio in the BrogdenCup?”

The Brine lacrosse all-stars spent the beginning of the new year in Tampa in competition.
SPRINGFIELD TWP. -Two local high school foot-ball programs joined thebattle against concussionsand contact-sports relatedhead trauma by helpingtest the effectiveness of asimple collar worn aroundthe neck.
St. Xavier High Schooland Moeller High Schoolwere chosen to participatein a study to determine theeffectiveness of the Q-Col-lar, an invention designedby Dr. David Smith, whowith Q30 Sports Sciencedecided Cincinnati was thebest place to put the theoryin play.
“This is one of the mostinnovative approaches to aproblem I’ve seen,” saidDr. Gregory Myer, who’sthe director of Researchand the Human Sports
Medicine Lab at CincinnatiChildren’s Hospital. “(Thecollar) is simple and inno-vative — we call that clev-er.
“Concussions are nowthe biggest injury insports. Everyone’s work-ing to create a better solu-tion, and most people thinkabout a better helmet.From a physics standpoint,the helmet is not going tolimit the movement of thebrain in the skull. We’relooking at the mechanismof injury so we’re able tobetter solve it. Coming at itfrom, ‘hey, it’s the brainand movement inside theskull.’ We have to reducethat.”
Myer’s Division ofSports Medicine Research,which was aided in dataanalysis by CincinnatiChildren’s divisions of neu-rology, neuroradiology,biostatistics and epidemi-
ology and the Imaging Re-search Center, was select-ed by Q30 Sports Science toconduct the study afterworking on ACL injuryprevention over the last 15years.
So last year, St. Xaviertested the collar with itshockey team. This year itwas football’s turn. TheBombers received writtenapproval to wear the col-lars from the Ohio HighSchool Athletic Associa-tion. Players were then out-fitted with accelerom-eters, and both teams weretested in the preseason,midway point and postsea-son. They underwentEEGs to measure the neu-ral function; MRIs to mea-sure the structural capaci-ty of the brain; as well as vi-sion testing, impact con-cussion testing andultrasounds to ensure thecollars fit correctly.

Noah Pitman has hadthe best run so far in theCHL at 145 pounds, win-ning the majority of thetime by pin.
“I couldn’t be happier,”Pitman said. “I don’t get asnervous as I used towatching him wrestle.”
The McDonald’s Mi-ami Trace Invitational isJan. 30 and Pitman is hop-ing to have the Cowboys
ready to corral more vic-tories on their way to thepostseason. The tourna-ment is about an hour and15 minutes away and hasbeen a springboard in thepast.
“They have a lot of Di-vision II and III schoolsthat are very tough,” Pit-man said. “If you do wellin that tournament thatusually shows well at thenext level in sectionalsand districts. In recentyears, we’ve had somesuccess there and hope-fully we can continue.”
After the Madeira Invi-tational, Wyoming will goto Walnut Hills for a dualmeet Jan. 19 then host theWyoming Duals Jan. 23.
The matmen finishedwith a record of 4-3 at theBlanchester Duals. TheCowboys won 67 percentof their head-to-headmatches against their op-ponents. Noah Pitmanwent 7-0 for the Cowboys,pinning 5 of his oppo-nents. Luke Kremzarearned his 50th careerwin as well, over theweekend.
