COLLECTION TIME
A little more homeworkmight be in order before theSymmes Township Board ofTrustees hires a new adminis-
trator.Phil Beck
was the trusteepresident lastyear when theboard unani-mously voted todismiss its for-mer adminis-trator, Brian El-liff, who had
served the township since2011. The township and ad-ministrator amicably partedways last March. The ratio-nale given at the time for thedismissal was the need for thetownship to move in a differ-ent direction.
Since then, per a provisionof the Ohio Revised Code, theboard of trustees presidenthas served as the interim ad-ministrator. Beck in 2015; KenBryant now. There is no extra
pay given for the task, FiscalOfficer Carol Sims said. Thecompensation provided isstrictly that which trusteesreceive as elected officials -last year Beck’s pay was$20,568. Elliff’s annual salarywas $107,000, she said.
Like most elected officials,Beck is a busy man. He has awife, three children, is pro-ject executive for the Cincin-nati and Hamilton County onThe Banks project and is anofficer in the United StatesNavy Civil EngineeringCorps. Taking on the duties oftownship administrator, evenas an interim, could have beena tall order if not for the town-ship’s administrative andpublic works staff.
“Symmes Township isblessed with a top-notch ad-ministrative and publicworks staff, and their willing-ness to step up during this in-terim period in combinationwith the trustees and the fis-cal officer doing the same al-

Dr. Charles Moorehead, whoowns Moorehead Family Den-tistry in Blue Ash, started goingto South Africa to provide den-tal care four years ago. He re-
cently returnedfrom a 10-daytrip.
“I got to knowa group of otherdentists fromCrossroads andthey invited meto come on thetrip,” Moore-head said.
Crossroads is a Cincinnatichurch with locations through-out the area, including the onein Oakley that Moorehead at-tends. Through the church, agroup of dentists go to the vil-lage of Grootvlei, about an hourand a half south of Johannes-burg, to provide free dentalcare.
“We help people that are inextreme poverty. They don’thave access to a dentist any-where. So we have been goingon a regular basis, usually ev-ery six months to a year,” Moo-rehead said.
The Topsy Foundation,where Moorehead offered hisdental care, is one of Cross-roads’ four partners in SouthAfrica, Director of ReachOutBrad Lovell said. He addedmost of the church’s outreach isrelated to entrepreneurship
and job creation. “In some of our other part-
ners we work alongside sup-porting their mission. For ex-ample, working with orphansand vulnerable children, doingmedical checks, supportingtheir communities. Due to thehigh HIV/AIDS rates, manycommunities are highly popu-lated with children raising chil-dren,” Lovell said.
Moorehead said the dentalneeds for the patients he treats
in Grootvlei are very differentfrom the people he sees at hispractice in Blue Ash, which hebought in 2013.
“We cannot possibly begin tomeet all the needs for one indi-vidual. It is just really a lot ofwork that needs to be done. A lotof the kids, from the time theyare a year or two old, have teeththat begin to rot because oftheir diet,” Moorehead said.

He added a lot of whathe and the other dentistsdo is education and tak-ing care of immediateneeds.
“It is more of anemergency type basis inSouth Africa, along withsome prevention. Andhere in the U.S. it is moreabout optimal health andyou can see someonemore often,” he said.
The dentists work outof Topsy and help thenearby residents whoare suffering from ex-treme poverty and theeffects of HIV/AIDS.Lovell said Crossroadshas been sending peopleand resources to SouthAfrica for nearly 10years.
“(Dentistry) is just a
small part of the largerplan to try to help thepeople in South Africa.The people who work atthe clinic are the real he-roes. We just came inand offer a service theydon’t normally provide,”Moorehead said.
Topsy is in the GertSibande District ofSouth Africa, which hasthe second highest HIVrate in the country.
“We (at Crossroads)have chosen to pursue anarrow and deep philos-ophy of mission engage-ment, where we send alot of dollars and peopleto a few specific initia-tives. That has helped usrealize some level ofsuccess and measurableimpact,” Lovell said.

he said.The trustees will likely
advertise for an adminis-trator in 2016, Beck said.No specific time line hasbeen established.
“However, we under-stand the importance ofdoing our homework up

It is estimated that 90 million Americanssnore during sleep. While half of these peo-ple are “simple snorers,” the other halfmay have a serious sleep disorder called Ob-structive Sleep Apnea. Dr. Kitzmiller, of Cin-cinnati Dental Sleep Medicine, treats patientsevery day in his Milford office and shares an-swers to the most frequently asked questionshe receives.
Q: What is the difference between snoringand sleep apnea?A: “Snoring is the sound produced duringsleep by the vibration of the soft tissues in theupper airway (nose and throat). Obstructivesleep apnea is a medical condition where thesoft tissues of the throat collapse and blockthe airway during sleep. Most often, sleep ap-nea sufferers are reported to not only snore,but to stop breathing multiple times per hourand wake with a gasp.”
Q: Are there any health risks with sleep ap-nea?A: “Yes. In addition to excessive fatigue, un-treated sleep apnea can contribute to a num-ber of health conditions including high bloodpressure, diabetes, depression, weight gain,and morning headaches. Untreated sleep ap-nea has also been linked to heart attack andstroke.”
Q:How can I find out if it’s more than snoring?A: “Only a physician can diagnose sleep ap-nea. This is done with an overnight sleep test,either in a sleep facility or at home. After acomplimentary health screening in our officewe can guide you to an appropriate physicianfor further evaluation.”
Q:What are treatment options for snoring andsleep apnea?A: “Snoring solutions typically include weightloss and not sleeping on your back. Sleep ap-nea treatments included CPAP devices, OralAppliances, and surgery. In our office we treatour snoring and sleep apnea patients with anoral appliance, an FDA approved medical de-vice that fits over your teeth and holds thelower jaw forward, keeping the airway openwhile you sleep.”
Q: Does medical insurance cover any of thetreatment?A: “We have been very successful in using ourpatient’s medical insurance to cover a portionof the treatment fee. During the complimen-

Residents of DeerPark and SycamoreTownship are mourningthe loss of a caring andgentle person who dedi-cated his life to his com-munity and children.
Board of EducationMember Tom Griswoldpassed away Sunday, Jan.17, at Mercy-Jewish Hos-pital following a briefhospitalization. Familywas by his side. He was82-years-old.
Since 1957 Griswoldwas involved in DeerPark Schools either as ateacher, administrator,coach, athletic directoror board of educationmember. Griswold hasserved on the Deer ParkBoard of Education since1998. He was re-electedin the fall to another four-year term.
Hank Estes, a retiredteacher and longtimecoach at Deer ParkSchools, first met Gris-wold in 1959. He remem-bered him as a man whocared for children andtheir educational future.
“He loved kids. Thebest job he ever had wasover at Amity with thoselittle kids,” Estes said.“He’s done all kinds ofthings for kids since heretired.”
Griswold was espe-cially good at raisingmoney. He helped the dis-trict raise more than$600,000 to install thenew track at Deer ParkJunior/Senior HighSchool in the early 2000s,he said.
“He was likely respon-sible for raising about$400,000,” he said. “Heliked doing this kind ofstuff and he did it verylow key. Our track isnamed after him.”
Most recently, Gris-wold was working withothers on the Pride in thePark Field Turf Cam-paign, in an effort to raise$700,000 to install syn-thetic turf on the junior/senior high school stadi-um field.
Ken Anders, a formerpresident of the DeerPark Athletic Boostersand the Alumni Associa-tion, remembered Gris-wold as a “great guy.
“We did a lot of worktogether. It’s been a longtime,” he said.
Deer Park HistorianAnn Poole said the em-ployees of Amity Ele-mentary thought veryhighly of Griswold. Herdaughter, Penny Hodge,is an employee there. Hisabsence will be feltthroughout the districtbecause he regularly vis-ited the schools, she said.
In addition to his 57years of service to thechildren of Deer Park,Griswold served as a Syc-amore Township trusteeand administrator. Hewas active in both Ken-wood Christian Churchand Mount HealthyChristian Church, serv-ing as an elder and boardmember for many years.
“Mr. Griswold was ablessing,” MountHealthy ChristianChurch Pastor MichaelDoerr said. He and his
wife, Diane, started com-ing to the church about 10years ago when theirchurch in Kenwoodclosed. Mount Healthywas Diane Griswold’schildhood church, hesaid. They were bothvery active with DianeGriswold serving as thechoir director for a cou-ple of years and TomGriswold serving as achurch elder and on thechurch board.
“It’s a privilege to callTom a friend and not justto be able to serve as hispastor. He had a story foreverything, and a nick-name for everyone.Though he never gameme one,” Doerr said. “Ev-erybody he met, theywalked away laughingand smiling.”
Doerr said he neverknew Griswold as acoach, principal or schoolboard member.
“My impression, inthat sort of a setting, Tomwas no pushover, but hemade sure you knew thathe believed in you,” hesaid. “That’s what I seehere in terms of his lead-ership for his church. Hehad some expectationsbut he was gentle in ex-pressing those and al-ways encouraging.”
Doerr also knew Gris-wold as a man of faith.
“I know that theschools saw it, but youdon’t wear your faith onyour sleeve in the publicschool. It was obviouswho he was and it camethrough,” he said. “I hadthe privilege of seeinghis faith in action. Thatwas a big piece of every-thing else he did in life.”
Sycamore TownshipTrustee Cliff Bishopjoined the board of trust-ees not long before Gris-wold left. He served as atrustee from 1985-1988and then as a townshipadministrator from 1988to 1989. After that he pur-sued his career with theschools, Bishop said.
“I can tell you, he was atrue gentleman,” he said.He was one of the mosthumble and honorablepeople Bishop said thathe’s ever met.
He will be missed bythousands living in DeerPark and SycamoreTownship, he said.
According to theMount Healthy ChristianChurch’s Facebook page,Griswold grew up in
Hamilton and graduatedfrom “Big Blue” (Hamil-ton) in 1951. He went on toplay football at MiamiUniversity. His collegedays were interrupted bytwo years of service inthe U.S. Army. He re-turned to Miami andgraduated in June 1957with a degree in healthand physical education.He received his master’sin education from XavierUniversity.
Griswold is survivedby his wife, Diane, threechildren - Julie Griswold
of Houston, Texas, Jennyand her husband DanRamsey of Germantown,Ohio, and Scott Griswoldand his wife Sonia ofSpringboro, Ohio, andeight grandchildren,Molly (Matt) Hickey,Jess (Hannah) Ramsey,Meg, Addy and GretchenRamsey, Sarah Grace,Sam and Seth Griswold.
There will be a cele-bration of Griswold’s lifeat 2 p.m. Saturday, Jan.30, in the Deer Park Ju-nior/Senior High Schoolgymnasium, 8351 Plain-
field Road. All are wel-come to attend. In lieu offlowers, people can do-nate to the field turf cam-

Summit Country Day» Seventeen students, par-
ents, teachers and administra-tors from The Summit CountryDay School attended the 2015People of Color ConferenceDec. 3-5 in Tampa.
More than 1,600 studentsfrom schools in the National As-sociation of IndependentSchools attended the StudentDiversity Leadership Confer-ence. The students from TheSummit were Hali Clark of For-est Park, Lucia Grandison ofSymmes Township, LillianChow of Montgomery, CaraKirkpatrick of Montgomery,Joshua Campbell of Golf Manorand Jaden Woodard of Clifton.
In addition to students, morethan 2,000 adults attended thePeople of Color Conference.Faculty, staff and administra-tors attending from The Sum-mit were middle school teacherPenny Herr, literacy coach Pat-ti Kenney, Diversity and Inclu-sion (D&I) director and teacherYngrid Thurston, D&I chairand parent Lama Khoury, Up-per School Director JohnThornburg, Upper School ad-ministrative assistant and D&Icoordinator Marsha Wermes,Upper School teacher and D&Icoordinator Gail Rosero, col-lege counselor and D&I coordi-nator Laci Tucker, K-6 coordi-nator Cary Daniel, parent ChrisWoodard and athletic directorGreg Dennis.
Thurston said her favoritespeaker this year was Mahza-rin Banaji, an award-winningIndian-American social psy-chologist who teaches at Har-vard University. She noted thatall people have biases based onthe knowledge each person col-lects about a culture and deci-sions are made based on theseideas.
“As The Summit’s D&I di-rector, I’ve had the pleasure ofhearing many great speakersduring the past nine years wehave gone to the People of ColorConference,” Thurston said.
“Many of my learnings fromthis trip came from my fellowSummit attendees. This groupwas full of diversity championswho were willing to travel far toface uncomfortable situationsand hear opinions and com-ments they may find hard to di-gest. These champions wel-come the kind of conflict thatuncovers views blinded by ourown biases and are willing tobring their learnings back toThe Summit to contribute to aninclusive environment.”

JANUARY 27, 2016 • NORTHEAST SUBURBAN LIFE • 7ANEWS
I’m a softie when it comes to Mother Na-ture’s orphans. Especially where we live, atthe end of an old country road - and especial-ly during this frigid weather.
For the past several months we’ve beenvisited daily by a gray cat. “She” doesn’thang around the whole day, but we’ve noticedthe mice population in the garage this winteris zero. During Sunday dinner the cat cameto the back kitchen door. The grandkidspeeked out to see. Will asked if she had aname. “No, we just call her cat,” I told him. “Ithink Silky is a good name,” Will said. So Silky it is.
The good thing about the name is its gender neu-tral so we’re safe if “she” turns out to be a “he.” Weusually give dry cat food, but today I gave her a bitof sautéed ground beef when I was making this soup.It’s the first time she allowed me to get close enough
to pet her - her way of saying thanks?
Tip from Rita’s kitchenGruyere is a creamy Swiss cheese worth
the price. Swap it out with Swiss if you needto.
Readers want to knowHow do I steep saffron?This spice is expensive. Place the threads
in a small amount of liquid for 10 minutes orso. The liquid will turn yellow. Add the liquid
to your recipe. Besides boosting flavor, steepingdistributes color more evenly.

Secret ingredient spicy 30-minute beefvegetable soup
I won’t pretend this is a new recipe. I’ve shared it before,but I always get requests to publish it again, particularly duringsoup weather.
So here it is, for Charlie, a Wyoming reader, and thatyoung couple I chatted with after church. I’ve changed therecipe a bit. This soup has a cult following. I’m not surprised.It’s really that good, and really that easy. Can you tell what thesecret ingredient is?
l-1/2 pounds lean ground beef - I used sirloin in the photorecipe
1 heaping cup chopped yellow or white onion, not sweetonion
2 cloves garlic, minced1 jar chunky garden style pasta sauce2 cans low sodium beef brothWater to taste (start with 1 or 2 soup cans of water and
go from there)10 oz. can tomatoes and chilies or 14.5 oz. diced tomatoes
if you don’t want it spicy1 pound or so frozen soup or mixed vegetables, thawed if
you have timeSeveral handfuls any fresh greensCheddar for garnish
Sauté meat, onion and garlic together in pot until meat iscooked. Now add everything else but the greens. Bring to aboil and let simmer for about 30 minutes. Toss in greens andcook until just wilted, about a minute more.
Tip from Rita’s kitchen: A potato masher works wondersto break up the ground beef as it cooks.
Watch Rita! Check out my YouTube channel on my siteAbouteating.com to see me making the soup.
French onion soup with Gruyere croutons
I love this soup. It’s not complicated, just takes some timecaramelizing the onions. I use my food processor to slice them.
4-5 pounds large onions, sliced very thin1/2 to 1 stick butter6 cups low sodium beef broth or chicken broth8 slices French bread, sliced 1/2”, toasted on one side1/2 pound Gruyere, grated
To toast bread: Brush very lightly with olive oil or spraywith olive oil spray. Run under broiler until golden on top, orbake in 400 degree oven.
Cook onions in butter over medium heat, stirring fre-quently, for 40 minutes or until golden brown. Add brothslowly, stirring constantly, until soup comes to a boil. Lower tosimmer, cover and cook 20 minutes. Season to taste. Fill ovenproof bowls with soup. Place slice of bread, toasted sidedown, on top of each. Divide cheese among bread slices. Broiluntil cheese melts.
Keep warm with steamybowls of homemade soup

Jan. 20 questionWhat do you think of the Wis-
consin Interscholastic AthleticAssociation’s decision to bancheers it deems disrespectful ortaunting toward opposingteams and athletes?
“While it is a great gesture,as long as parents are allowedinto the stands at sportingevents you will always havedisrespectful taunting or jeer-ing towards opposing teamsand athletes.”
C.S.
“Shame it has even come tothis. Sports used to includesportsmanship, not tauntingand ridicule. Lose with graceand win with even more grace.Not today. Now it has to bewritten into rules.”
C.G.
“Tell Wisconsin to get alife.”
M.A.M.
“The Wisconsin Interscho-lastic ban on certain highschool cheers is a bit frivo-lous. In this age of politicallycorrectness it does fit the newline of ‘thinking.’ To me a highschool should police their stu-dents and foul languageshould not be allowed. I thinkthe Wisconsin move is a bitover the top; besides the clev-er cheers are mostly done incollege. Go figure!”
T.D.T.
Jan. 13 questionWhat changes, if any, would
you make to the primary systemfor choosing presidential candi-dates?
“In the past few yearsmany states (including Ohio)have altered the timing oftheir primaries to make themmore meaningful. With that inmind other states will altertheirs when and if needed.Some states like to be at thefront end and early, other pre-fer to be later with fewer can-didates. The abundance of de-bates on all subjects has ex-posed the potential candidatesto greater scrutiny than in thepast. I do not see any reason tochange the primary processas it seems to evolve on its
own. I look forward to a poten-tial series of showdown de-bates this fall between DonaldTrump and Hillary Clinton.That show could top the SuperBowl for a viewing audience.Go Figure!”
T.D.T.
Jan. 6 questionWhat is the best way to han-
dle the Syrian refugee situa-tion?
“I have not heard any ex-planation of where these refu-gees would be housed duringthe up-to-two year vettingprocess. Then, in addition tothe basically total lack of his-tory on these people availablefrom within Syria, any pre-sumed vetting by our over-sized government depart-ments that have repeatedlyproved to be pretty incompe-tent, entry by these peopleinto the U.S. would be a riskyproposition for our own inno-cents and targeted groups.One radical Islamist amongthem could be released amongus to act on his or her own tocommit a terrorist act on oursoil; or to radicalize discon-tents already here who gainedentry legally or illegally orwho were actually born here.Surely locating a portion ofland close to Syria and offer-ing help in the way of securityand supplies would be morecost and security effective. Itmight well be the more ac-ceptable solution for the ma-jority of the refugee familiesthemselves, not having to beseparated by such a distancefrom their homeland and wayof life.”

MADISON SCHMIDT FOR THE COMMUNITY PRESS
Fans cheer for the Turpin High School football team in their playoffgame against Kings.
Even though Switzerlandborders southern Germany,while Adolph Hitler attackedeveryone else, he wiselychose not to attack the SwissConfederation during WW II.
Was it because of Swit-zerland’s declared neutral-ity? Or was it because he wasaware of the Swiss history ofwell-armed, fierce defense?
An earlier tyrant, Charlesthe Bold of Burgundy(France), having laid siege tothe Swiss town of Murren in1476, limped away after suf-fering 12,000 dead – the Swisslost only 410. Clearly, a well-armed, trained citizenry isessential to a retention ofliberty.
Recognizing that, ourAmerican forefathers placedin the Bill of Rights of theU.S. Constitution the SecondAmendment: “A well-regulat-ed Militia, being necessary tothe security of a free State,the right of the People tokeep and bear Arms, shall notbe infringed.”
While here in the UnitedStates we have lost the con-cept of a citizen militia, theSwiss have not. AffirmedSept. 23, 2013, by a vote of 73percent, Swiss men betweenthe ages of 18 and 34 mustserve part-time in the Army(women serve voluntarily)and in the Militia until age 50(at least two weeks yearly).They are required to keep
military-ap-proved riflesand relatedequipment intheir homes.It is estimatedthat the Swisscan turn outan army of600,000 menwithin 48hours.
There arenearly 420,000 assault rifles(fully automatic or “selectivefire”) stored in privatehomes, mostly SIG SG 550models. Additionally, thereare some 320,000 semi-auto-matic rifles and militarypistols exempted from mil-itary service in private pos-session.
Twenty-five percent to 46percent (estimated) of Swisshouseholds hold handgunsand carbines.
There are more than 3,000firing ranges for firearmstraining and practicethroughout Switzerland.
According to PresidentObama and his Democratcolleagues, due to the ubiqui-ty of firearms, Switzerlandshould be awash in blood. Butwhat are the facts?
In 2014, the City of Cincin-nati (population 300,000)witnessed 66 homicides, 59by firearm. In contrast, Swit-zerland (population 8,140,000)in 2014 saw 173 attempted
homicides, only 18 involvingfirearms. 41 attempts weresuccessful.
President Obama’s attemptto legislate regarding fire-arms via executive orders isitself a criminal act.

Did he mean to transformour Republic from one of a“rule by law” to one of “ruleby executive fiat,” that is, adictatorship?

SYCAMORE TOWNSHIP -Cara Norris is at Ohio State,Mark Hancher is focusing onacademics at Notre Dame andOlympian Dan Ketcham haslong retired from swimmingsince he blazed through the poolat Sycamore High School in thelate 1980s.
Dr. Dan Carl’s SycamoreAqua Aves may not have themarquees names of the pastthat are posted in the natatori-um, but he still has a few glidinggracefully through the waterfor the green and gold.
At the recent Southwest OhioCoaches Classic meet Jan. 16-17,Sycamore’s girls finished 10thamong schools at all levels. Theboys team was 21st.
“We’re tired and we don’ttake a break in our training,”Carl said. “We used the week-end to see or check to to see ifthere’s anyone I’m really wor-ried about as we move into therest phase of our season. We gotthrough that pretty well.”
In what appears to be cycli-cal, Sycamore’s girls are aheadof the guys in terms of postsea-son possibilities. Over time, thatcan switch depending on thenumber of swimmers enrolledany given year.
“We’re pretty loaded on thegirls side,” Carl said. “We alsohave a solid group of youngguys and a bunch of good dis-trict-level swimmers.”
Last winter, current seniorsPriscilla Wu and Mary Frymade the state meet in the 50freestyle with current juniorHannah May swimming the 200free. Current senior Jory Gouldswam the 200 medley relay withWu, Fry and the graduated CaraNorris and current senior Eliza-beth Walden was in the 200 freerelay with Fry, Wu and Norris.
Wu is now choosing betweenMIT and Harvard and Fry has
already signed with Illinois.Elizabeth Walden is consideringVermont according to Carl.
Other Sycamore girls mayfollow and the veteran coachhas seen some notable times.However, Sycamore has thesame issues many schools haveas students juggle other sportsand interests. Nearly everysport places an increasedamount of expectations into off-season work.
“You almost have to special-ize (in swimming) in order tocompete at the high end be-cause some other kid is,” Carlsaid. “Some of these kids that
are close, if they don’t special-ize, they won’t make it.”
Outside of the Greater Mi-ami Conference meet, Carl ex-pects tough competition fromSt. Ursula, Ursuline and Center-ville at the district level. Be-yond that, he’s very optimistic.
“We’ll be top 10 easily thisyear at State if we swim likewe’re capable of swimming,”Carl said. “It should be the bestfinish we’ve had in awhile.”
The Sycamore boys lost aconsiderable amount of state-level talent.
Junior Cameron Foy is a topdiver, but as for those in the pool
for a longer duration, seniorChris Seger is the most experi-enced. Seger has one of the toptimes in the league in the 100butterfly. Junior Jiho Choi wassecond in the GMC in the 100backstroke at presstime andsophomore Luke Tenbarge topsthe league in the 100 breast-stroke.
“It’s a reach for him (Ten-barge)this year, but the nexttwo years he should be a shoo-in(at State) if he keeps progress-ing the way he is,” Carl said.
Sycamore is at the GMCmeet Feb. 5-6 in Mason, with thedistrict gathering the followingweek in Oxford.

SYCAMORE TWP. - Enter-ing this season, his first at thehelm of CHCA, coach SteveRowland brought big changes.It was a different style than theone the players had grown ac-customed to.
It took a few games for thegirls to brain dump everythingthey had learned, especially theseniors. To top it off, the teamhad about a month off in themiddle of the season with theholiday break and the school’sWinter Intercession opportuni-ties. Their record, in the begin-ning, suffered.
“That whole month left mescratching my head as to howwe were going to handle it,”Rowland said. “In our firstgame back, we threw up allover ourselves. Then, weturned right around againstDayton Christian and playedone of the best games we’veplayed all year. It was a matterof getting their hands back onthe ball.”
The win against the Warriorswas part of a stretch where theEagles won six of their last sev-en games. The defense only al-lowed 30 or more points twice.
The offense, which eclipsedthe 50-point mark twice in thatstretch, is steadily improving.Rowland said it was around thefifth or sixth game when theteam started to buy into the newschemes.
“It wasn’t easy for them,” hesaid. “We’re creatures of habitand it was tough for a few of
them to let go of what they hadlearned. They finally all boughtin and are starting to play muchbetter.”
The coach added that histeam can’t stay complacentwith how things are going rightnow. He’d still like the offenseto be more in sync, turn the ballover 10 times or less instead ofthe normal 20 and shoot about40 percent from the floor.
The team was at 32.8 percentas of Jan. 22.
“We have three big confer-ence games coming up thisweek and we have to get a littlemore synergy in the offense werun,” Rowland said. “Those arethings we are establishing asbaselines of where we want toget to. The numbers have goneup. That’s the trend we want tosee.”

PRICE HILL - Moeller andElder turned the 55th CatholicInvitational Tournament intotheir own battle for much of theannual wrestling event at El-der’s Memorial Fieldhouse be-fore Moeller pulled away to winwith a score of 249.
Elder, which led by a pointwith only a few finals matchesto go, settled for second placewith 232 points. Third-placeMentor Lake Catholic was wellbehind the local powers with194.5 points. St. Xavier was theonly other local team in the top10 with an eighth-place score of91.5.
Moeller, ranked No. 1 in thelatest Enquirer Division Icoaches’ poll, got individualwins by Jake Thompson at 138pounds, Jacoby Ward at 152,Jack Meyer at 220 and Joe Hen-sley at 285.
Elder got wins by Robby Os-wald at 160 and Ti’Ric Evans at170. The fourth-ranked Pan-thers led Moeller 228-227 afterEvans’ win, but Meyer put theCrusaders ahead for good with a14-1major decision over Colum-bus Bishop Hartley’s JaredCroswell.
It was Meyer’s 100th varsitywin.
“It’s awesome,” Meyer saidof his win. “I thought I did pret-
ty well. Right off the bat, I got apretty quick takedown. I justkept working my tail off. Icouldn’t really get any good pincombos, so I just racked up thescore.”
The major decision earnedan extra point. Meyer knew hecould get even another point forhis team with a tech fall if hewon by 15.
“I wanted to get that tech fall,but I just couldn’t get any goodshots in at the end,” Meyer said.“For a while there we were onlybeating Elder by point-five, andthat’s just from a tech fall get-ting us an extra point. So thatmajor was a big deal.”
Earlier in the session, Wardscored a major decision in his10-2 win over Toledo CentralCatholic’s Richard Jackson inthe final of the 152-pound brack-et. Ward built a 7-0 lead early inthe second period and scoredtwo points as the final secondsticked off in the final period, de-spite a jammed thumb. Wardknew about the extra pointavailable.
“I was aware of it, but Icouldn’t really squeeze myright hand,” Ward said. “Icouldn’t really squeeze with mythumb because I jammed it. So Ijust had to play it safe and onlytake my shots when I had them.”
Ward crossed off somewhatof a bucket-list item with thewin.
“I hadn’t won a CIT yet,”Ward said. “I was second lastyear and lost in overtime to theeventual state champ. So I want-ed to win this at least once. Iwent out there with the determi-nation to win it. After I got thattake down, I felt confident.”
Oswald and Evans followedWard’s win with back-to-backwins to propel the Panthers intothe lead. Oswald outlasted Har-tley’s Zach Bowman 7-4 at 160after building a big lead andheld on with a sore leg. Thematch had to be stopped for a
few minutes during the secondperiod while trainers and a doc-tor tended to Oswald.
“He was bending my leg upand then he started bending it tothe left, so it was just bendingthe wrong way,” Oswald said.“Initially the pain was prettygreat, but when (the doctor) wasmoving it around, it started tofeel a lot better. When I stood up,it really started to feel better.About 20 seconds into the third,I started to feel normal again.”
Oswald didn’t expect an easymatch.
“I really wanted to slow himdown and take shots when Ineeded to take shots,” Oswaldsaid. “I didn’t want to be divingat shots because I knew he hadpretty good defense.”
Evans also expected a toughmatch with Padua’s Eric Fas-nacht, but the Elder 170-poun-der held on for a 3-2 win.
“I went into the match think-ing about how he had the experi-ence because he placed higherthan me at Brecksville,” Evanssaid. “But my uncle OrlandoScales and Coach (Jason) Roushtold me what to do. They said tostay low and stay in good posi-tion and you will have thismatch. I always believe whatthey say to me. In my mind, Iknew I could do it.”
Jake Thompson earned thefirst title of the day for Moellerwith a 3-0 win over Mentor LakeCatholic’s Luke McKeon.Thompson took and 1-0 leadearly in the second period andclung to that advantage untilscoring two late points in thethird.
“I knew coming in that it wasgoing to be a close match,”Thompson said. “It can bestressful, but you know all sea-son long you’ve been preparingfor this. So I was ready for it.”
Hensley closed out the titlesfor Moeller when he pinnedTrinity’s Charlie Drauckerearly in the second period.

tremely high this year,” Hodgesaid. “Shooting for anothersecond-place finish would be areally good end to the season.”
Hodge would like to farewell in Canton at the statemeet, but his ultimate goal willactually be several miles souththe following week in Clear-water, Florida, at the JuniorNational meet. Before he getsinvolved in the University ofWisconsin’s program, he’d liketo have a run at the nationalstage.
“This year being an Olym-pic year, it’s a bit more de-manding with Olympic trialsin June,” Hodge said. “Doingwell at the meet is a huge prior-ity. It’s not optimal to not focuson high school swimming, butit kind of has to be done. Thatmeet in Florida is a qualifyingmeet.”
Hodge has been swimmingsince age 5 and also playedbasketball and baseball until
KENWOOD - At manyschools, a swimmer on the lev-el of Cooper Hodge would berecognized as the proverbial“big man on campus”.
At Moeller High School,where every other lockerseemingly belongs to a stand-out athlete or resident genius,it’s easy to get lost in the shuf-fle. However, the wet-hairedHodge is making a name forhimself on Montgomery Roadby winning titles and settingrecords.
“I think it receives ahealthy amount of notice,”Hodge said. “Football does geta lot of the press, but everyonedoes get excited for the wintersports of basketball, wrestlingand swimming.”
In the recent SouthwestOhio Coaches Classic meet,the senior matched a feat heaccomplished once before as asophomore by winning threeevents. Hodge won the 100backstroke and 200 and 400 in-dividual medley races, settingmeet records.
“This year I broke three ofthe records, so I was happierwith the performance,” Hodgesaid. “I don’t really have therecords in mind, but they’renice to see and try to go after.”
A first-team Greater Catho-lic League-South performer ayear ago, Hodge would like tosee the Crusaders snare anoth-er second-place Division Istate finish. As with every sea-son for more than 50 years, theCrusaders chase perennialswimming powerhouse St. Xa-vier.
“Our team goals are ex-
his junior high years. He’ssince been a full-time swim-mer, training with the MasonManta Rays. His decision toswim in the Big 10 for Wiscon-sin was fairly easy.
“I like the cold; it’s not goingto be a problem,” Hodge said.“It was really the town thatsold me. Also, the coachingstaff and team are focused onbecoming a top five program.Right now, they’re 12th or13th.”
Moeller swims at GCL Sen-ior Night at St. Xavier Jan. 28,then against Madeira on Jan.29. They have a quad meet atMason Jan. 30, then the GCLChampionships at St. XavierFeb. 3. Those fortunate to ad-vance will make the state meetFeb. 26-27. The Crusadershave already had a taste of theC.T. Branin Natatorium inCanton this season when theytook part in the Big 8 meet inDecember.
