For Princeton HighSchool Senior MarcusPlacke, getting a chance towork with an orthopedic sur-geon, a human knee andsome of the latest medicaltechnology helped him con-nect the dots about his fu-ture.

“It confirmed I wanted tobe an orthopedic surgeon,”said Placke, of Springdale.

Placke was one of a dozenmembers of Dave Buquo’sHonors Anatomy and Physi-ology who took their class-room to an operating roomoperating room on March 24as part of a partnership withBeacon Orthopaedics andSports Medicine in Sharon-ville. They participated inprocedures, including ar-throscopy of the knee and su-turing, as Beacon’s Dr. An-drew Razzano led the class.

Through Beacon, stu-dents are getting exposed toreal-world experiences thatdoctors see when treatingtheir patients. In the class-room, students typically usemink, because its anatomyresembles that of a human.

At Beacon, cadaver limbswere used, to give an authen-tic experience of the proce-dures.

“This program reinforc-es, in practical ways, exactlywhat we’re learning inclass,” Buquo said. “It puts areal-life spin on anatomy andphysiology, and the impor-tance of what we learn inclass,”.

The program offeredthree stations to show stu-dents various aspects ofknee surgery: arthroscopicsurgery for the ACL tendon;the suturing process; andgrafting for ACL repair.

Students said the pro-gram reinforced their driveto study medicine after highschool, in the fields of re-search, nursing and medicalschool.

“We were able to apply theknowledge from class to ac-tual cadavers,” Allen ClayJr., of Lincoln Heights, said.

Devin Lease, of Spring-dale, focused on the technol-ogy.

“I was impressed with theway they (doctors) were ableto manage the camera,” hesaid.

Beacon doctors helped

demystify the process forstudents and encouragedquestions, putting studentsat ease.

“I got over my anxiety,”DeAsia Morris, of LincolnHeights, said, “because itwas hands on.”

The visit was part of Bea-con Orthopaedic’s educa-tional outreach program,which includes more thantwo dozen local high schools.Princeton’s March 23 work-shop combined the pro-gram’s bio-skills lecture/labseries and arthroscopyworkshop.

The lecture and lab seriesgives students the opportu-nity to participate in cadaverdissection under the direc-tion of board certified andfellowship-trained doctors.The arthroscopy workshopallows students to help set upand maneuver arthroscopicequipment.

The program also in-cludes anatomy lectures.Princeton had previouslyparticipated in this part ofthe program, in which a phy-sician visits the school to lec-ture on a specific section ofthe human anatomy.

WMKV Radiocelebrates 20 years

A Sharonville property could berevitalized from abandoned ODOTstorage to a landscaping supply site.

The property, at 11864 Chester-dale Road, is near a neighborhood ofsingle-family homes.

That close proximity poses anadditional challenge to the pro-posed zoning change, according toBuilding and Planning DirectorRichard Osgood.

The current zoning, as public fa-cility, includes governmental, edu-cational, recreational, public facili-ty and general welfare uses. TheOhio Department of Transportationdeveloped four of the property’s 20acres in 1960 as a roadway mainte-nance and service facility. Salt,equipment and roadway construc-tion materials were stored at thesite, and the property was used fordispatch purposes.

The remaining 16 acres wereused as a public right-of-way andproperty considered an “uncon-trolled fill area.”

ODOT stopped operations andleft the site in 1999, removing twounderground fuel storage tanks.

The proposed change wouldzone the property as commercialservice planned unit development,which includes light industrial, pro-duction and general contractoruses.

As a planned unit development,the proposed use is tied to the zon-ing change. If approved, the proper-

ty can be used only as the zoningchange allows.

The company that is interestedin the site, Missouri-based SemcoStone, sells landscaping stones andsupplies.

Osgood said the impact to thesurrounding properties is difficultto gauge.

“This site is located adjacent to asingle family residential district,which typically isn’t compatiblewith heavier commercial or light in-dustrial,” he said.

Typically, zoning transitionsfrom the most restrictive to theleast restrictive in compatible uses.For instance, a single-family devel-opment to multi-family, or commer-cial to light industrial.

“Exceptions can be made on acase-by-case basis,” Osgood said.

Pending approval by Sharon-ville’s Planning Commission, a pub-lic hearing will be set for the May 12City Council meeting.

She put her right leg in, sheput her left hip out and sheshook it all about, but she

didn’t dance thehokey pokey.

Wyoming’sDiana Larashowed she defi-nitely had themoves duringher performanceat the April 11“Dancing ForThe Stars” eventin the MusicHall Ballroom.She came in firstrunner up be-

hind contestant Johnny Chu(owner, AmerAsia KungfoodRestaurant), whose routinemade her want to join his flashmob on Facebook.

Drew Lachey, a winner oftelevision’s “Dancing With TheStars,” was one of the judgesand said her dance with part-ner, Jozsef Parrach, was tech-nically difficult and that he felthe was watching a perfor-mance from the real “DancingWith The Stars” show. Dianamodestly claims Jozsef canmake anyone look good. Evenso, a bad dancer can throw agood dancer off, so we knowDiana really put brought some-thing to the dance floor.

Another judge, BrittanyRuby from Jeff Ruby’s restau-

rant, made Diana’s eyes waterwhen she said, “Your daddy isproud.” He was a WWII veter-an whom Diana describes asArmy strong, and her heartand soul danced in honor ofhim, her husband, UC Healthand her town of Wyoming.Diana said, “As the famoussong goes, ‘I had the time ofmy life.’”

Emotion was still high lateras she recounts, “Upon return-ing home that evening, Ithought I had left my eyeglass-es in the car, and was just tootired to go back downstairs toretrieve them. When I lookedfor my back-up pair, I openedthe case and there were twocolored twist ties which I hadsaved from my dad. He alwayshad twist ties available in thehouse. He would say, ‘You nev-er know when you’re going toneed one.’ He was like Mac-Gyver with gadgets and, ofcourse, twist ties. When I sawthem, I knew it was a messagefrom my dad, that he indeedsaw me and was proud. I willalways remember that night”.

Diana’s dress, designed torhythmically move to the beatof the music, flowed beautiful-ly with the smashing stage-craft of the dancers. Hubby,noted journalist Mark Cur-nutte, was there to cheer andfilm. The evening was made

complete when daughter, Alex-andra, arrived from Japan.

Although Diana’s back-ground includes reporting thenews, there is a big differencebetween using a microphoneand camera, which can bedaunting enough, and perform-ing up close and personal be-fore more than 1,000 people. Ittakes a lot of intestinal forti-tude, and that night Dianashowed she had it in spades.

Eight Cincinnati celebritiespaired with some of the area’sfinest professional dancers in acompetition program at whichthe audience voted for theirfavorite celebrity dancer. TheCincinnati Arts Associationpresented the evening to bene-fit their Overture Awards, aprogram that recognizes out-standing achievement in thearts among Tristate students ingrades nine-12. It offers schol-arships in creative writing,dance, instrumental music,theatre, visual art, and vocalmusic.

For the 2015 competition,students may win a $4,000scholarship in each discipline,or a $1000 finalist scholarship.Judges at all levels of the com-petition are drawn from theprofessional arts community.Diana was thrilled to partici-pate in raising money for thisworthwhile endeavor.

Providing affordablequality arts and entertain-ment opportunities thatare accessible and close tohome is a top goal of Even-dale Cultural Arts CenterDirector Susan Gordy.

The upcoming presen-tation of “Bird Brain” byCincinnati Playhouse Offthe Hill is a great exampleof this effort. This familyfriendly production isrecommended for ages 5and up, is free and will bepresented at the EvendaleCultural Arts Center 3p.m. Sunday, April 19. Aspecial hat making activ-ity will be held at 2:30 p.m.To register, call 563-2247.

The evening prior tothe Playhouse production,dancers from the Cincin-nati Ballet will present aglimpse of their craft atthe cultural arts center,6:30 p.m. Saturday, April18. Again, the perfor-mance is free, familyfriendly and appropriatefor ages 6 and up.

Having groups like theballet and the playhouseperform in Evendale is agreat opportunity for all,Gordy said. This providesthe community with con-venient access to greatperformances

This is exactly the in-tent behind the CincinnatiPlayhouse Off the Hillproductions, PlayhouseCommunity EngagementCoordinator KristinSchneider said. Off thehill has been running forabout eight years. Initia-lly it went to schools only,she said. They then foundthat they were missing awhole niche, communitycenters and families.

Often times, when thestudents see the produc-tions at school they want

to take their families tosee the show. The travel-ing tour group providesthis opportunity in an af-fordable and family-friendly way, Schneidersaid.

“We feel very stronglyabout really smart theaterthat is appropriate foryoung people but is notjust driven only for that,”she said. “We believesmart theater is a familyexperience that the kidswill really like and theparents will get on a dif-ferent level.”

The community thea-ter Cincinnati PlayhouseOff the Hill presents is en-joyed by people of allages. For mature audi-ences the theatrical pro-ductions are an opportuni-ty to enjoy quality theaterthat is also language ap-propriate, Schneider said.

Each play is about onehour long with time afterthe production for the ac-tors to answer audiencequestions. All feature acast of professional ac-tors from the Playhouse’sBruce E. Coyle Acting In-tern Company, along witha professionally designedand constructed sets andcostumes.

“This is a way for us toreach more people in acompletely differentway,” Scheneider said.

» Firefighters fromthe Evendale Fire Depart-ment came to the Even-dale Elementary Schooland spent time with thestudents during theirlunch.

Mount Notre DameHigh School

» Members of MountNotre Dame’s TheatreProgram traveled to NewYork City to experiencethe sights, sounds andstages of the Big Apple.

Ninety-nine travelers,including 64 students and35 adults made the trip –the first of its kind for theprogram.

The trip provided aunique enrichment oppor-tunity for MNDT, allow-ing students to meet andtalk with professional ac-tors and technicians. Thegroup met with a per-former from “A Gentle-man’s Guide to Love andMurder” and listened tothe story of her journey toBroadway.

The group also attend-ed two 90-minute ques-tion-and-answer forums.One forum exposed thegroup to the artistic sideof Broadway and includeda demonstration from amake-up supervisor whopreviously did work forMary Poppins.

The other forum ex-posed the group to thetechnical side of Broad-way and included the ex-pertise of an off-Broad-way lighting/sound de-signer as well as the cur-rent stage manager for Onthe Town.

Nate Pucke, MNDT di-rector, recalled his favor-ite part as seeing the stu-dents’ faces during inter-mission of the first Broad-way show.

“They were filled withamazement, excitement,joy and wonder. Thewhole reason I wanted toorganize this trip was sothat students would beable to see a Broadwayshow, because for some,they had never been orwould never be able togo,” Pucke said.

MNDT’s spring pro-duction, “Grease,” ran

from April 24 to May 2.

Ann Kean, a creative foods teacher atMadeira High School, isone of those people. Annsaid she is truly fortunateto love her job. She wantsto make a difference, andshe does.

“My teenagers areanxious to make, bakeand cook anything. Theywant to make somethingeach and every day,” Anntold me. Ann has exposedher students to all kinds

of food, from quinoa to kale to one of myfavorites, cinnamon rolls.

I think this would be so nice for aMom’s day breakfast. Don’t you? Andfor all the moms in our community cir-cle of readers, both biological and other-wise, I hope you have a blessed Mother’sDay.

Readers want to knowWhen can I plant basil outside?When temperatures above the ground

THANKS TO RITA HEIKENFELD

Homemade cinnamon rolls are a delectable treat for mom.

Ann Kean’s cool rise cinnamonrolls

Ann uses the cool rise method for herclass. “We can make a yeast bread beginningone day and finish it the next day and evenbake the third day, if necessary”, she said.

1. Mix

2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour1 cup whole wheat flour3/4 cup sugar1 teaspoon salt2. Dissolve1 package active dry yeast and1-1/4 cups 100-degree milk

4. Add and stir into the flour mixtureMilk/yeast mixture

2 eggs, slightly beaten2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

5. Add an additional 1 to 1-1/2 cups flourand mix well.

6. Knead dough for 8 minutes.7. Place dough in an oiled bowl; cover

and let rise for about 2 hours until doughdoubles.

8. Roll out dough into a 14 by 18-inchrectangle.

9. Spread filling made of:

1/2 cup barely melted unsalted butter1 cup dark brown sugar or combo of any

sugars3 tablespoons cinnamon

Leave less than an inch edge all the wayaround.

10. Roll from 18 inches side making aroll.

Myrtle’s crab cakes

Talking about another “mom with influence,” this recipe fromfriend, Perrin Rountree is an heirloom favorite. Perrin is an An-derson Township reader and wonderful cook.

“Family is everything to me,” she said. I remember fondly herstories of her Grandma, Myrtle, which were always connected withfood. Try this when you want a delicious and easy crab cake. Perrintold me her Grandma Myrtle’s strength and love of family sustainsher every day. “Hers was a gentle but firm love. We knew with justa look when we were behaving poorly, and with that same look wealso knew how much we were loved.”

Well said! As with all heirloom recipes, there can be variables.Like the saltines. You may need more than the recipe says, or youmay not. You want to be able to have the crab cake be nicely

formed and keep its shape but not be dry.

1 pound lump crabmeat4-5 shakes TabascoSalt and pepper to taste4-5 crushed saltines or few more if necessary1 egg, beaten2 teaspoons Old Bay seasoningFresh chopped parsley (opt)

Place crabmeat in bowl. Add other ingredients and mix lightly.Shape into 4 patties. Heat oil in heavy skillet. Over medium heat, fryuntil golden brown on both sides. Serve with extra Tabasco and tartarsauce or your favorite seafood sauce.

April 29 questionWas Reds manager Bryan Price

right about what he said aboutmedia coverage hurting his team?What is the media’s role in coveringlocal sports franchises?

“Bryan Price was totally offbase in what he said about themedia coverage. The media isn’tthere to be a friend of the teamand only cover good news, or putnews out when the team wants it,that would be a press release,that the team controls.

“The media is there to coverthe team. He may (be upset) theinformation wasn’t released theway it was, but the reality is thatit was. Instead of responding towhat he wished hadn’t happenedhe should have been mature

enough to address what hap-pened in an adult manner.

“He can take his concernsabout the local media to the Redsupper management and they candevise a strategy in how they re-late or release information to the

media. “The media’s job is to report,

not make sure the team, manageror a specific player is happy. Itwas embarrassing in terms of thecontent of his rant and it alsomade it look like he wasn’t readyto be a major league manager,which may be the case. “

C.S.

“This is kind of like answeringthat age old most dangerousquestion: Do these pants makemy butt look fat? Therefore no,Price was wrong blaming themedia coverage for hurting histeam, his team’s performance ishurting his team. What part ofthis is so hard to understand?”

A new puppy is always anexciting time in a household andours is no different as we justadded a five-month-old puppy,named Clooney to our household.

The high-end energy he has,along with chewing everythingin sight, keeps us busy. Our res-cue cats, George and Ozzie, arestill trying to figure out wherethis crazy creature came fromas he is interrupting their lei-surely quiet environment. Ourone cat George, tries to hang inthere, but in a romp, the pup istotally in another weight class.

One of the first things peopledo with a new puppy is havethem microchipped. This is asimple process of a tiny comput-er chip, compatible with livingtissue, is injected under the skin.This identifies the dog if theyget lost, allowing them to be“scanned” when found and re-turned to their owner.

When I was a little guy, ourfirst-grade class took a field tripto the zoo and somehow in the“Elephant House,” when I wastrying to figure just how amouse could go up an elephant’strunk, like the one in the storyour teacher read…my class-mates moved on without me. It

wasn’t untilafter I wastotally mes-merized by thesize of ele-phant’s dung(poop), that Irealized I wasthe only kidthere with alarge nametagpinned to his

shirt. At least that’s what Ithought as I looked downwarddiscovering a safety pin withonly the remains of a formernametag. Finally with tears run-ning down my cheeks, outsidethe reptile house, a zoo attendantnoticed me. A quick PA an-nouncement caught my teacher’sattention, reuniting with myclass.

I can image in the not toodistant future that we will all bemicrochipped! This would allowa lost child like myself at the zooto be scanned for name, addressand cell number. Actually thishas already happened with someindividuals merely waving theirmicrochipped hand to opendoors, start cars and controlcomputers. Imagine no moresearching for credit cards to

side in gas pumps, or storecheckouts, now just gesturingyour hand across a scanner!

My wife works at a local hos-pital and is always concernedabout keeping things cleaned toavoid catching something. So thedownside of this human comput-er chip is the possibility of get-ting a…your right…“a computervirus!” This has already happento a guy with a microchip as hepassed the virus to his desktop,phone and people receiving hisemails. This virus could affectother human implant deviceslike pacemakers and…OK, stop!

I try not to think of a futuretech world or what some call“post-human.” I’d rather sit typ-ing this while rubbing my pup-py’s ears than mental sendingmy brain thoughts over wirelessairwaves to some printer. I knowthese human identity chips arecoming down the road, but in my“Living Will” I will ask that allchips be removed so I may…“Rest in Peace!”

To give you a time perspec-tive on the existence of Amer-ica, my father was born in 1892,and my grandfather was bornin or about 1842.

This means that this countryis only about three generationsold for some people and onlyfour generations for many oth-ers. Old men, young prettywives. (My family has childrenlate in life.)

This country, with its politi-cal system as a representativeRepublic, is relatively new onthis earth. Although Americahas survived many threatsfrom foreign enemies, Americahas not yet proven to withstandevil forces inside America thatare intent on the fundamentaltransformation of Americanvalues, traditions, and godlikeconscience .America can bedestroyed from deceit overnight.

America is an exceptionalnation that must help lead theworld. The “melting pot” ofAmerica is being destroyedwith “multi-culturalism” pro-moted to divide the country intopockets of differences, hate andconflict. Senior presidentialadvisor Valerie Jarrett has

Iranian andAmerican citi-zenship. CIADirector JohnBrennan is aMuslim. Ba-rack HusseinObama attend-ed a MuslimMadras schoolin Indonesiaduring hisyouth. The

political systems of Islam andfreedom are contradictoryconcepts .

Why did Hillary Clinton defythe Records Act by destroyingall her emails when requestedby Congress to provide copiesof her email communicationsregarding Benghazi ?

How involved was Hillary inthis tragedy that tortured andmurdered Ambassador Christo-pher Stevens, and the murdersof Sean Smith, Tyrone Woodsand Glen Doherty, and loss ofEmbassy records on Sept. 11,2012, in Benghazi, Libya, theConsulate and Embassy. Theproof is in her email communi-cations.

I believe that all the deceitand cover-ups from Barack and

Hillary is to prove to Iran thefollowing:

1. The president is able toneutralize the U.S. militaryfrom response to a terroristattack in the Middle East.

2. He would allow the one-by-one internal destruction of allMiddle East governments tofacilitate the vision of the“Phoenix arising from the ash-es” for the entrance of the newIslamic world to be led by Iran.

3. The president could con-tinuously extend the phonynegotiations with Iran to foolthe American and people andallies to believe there is a realeffort to stop Iran from devel-oping a nuclear bomb arsenal.

4. The president would con-tinue to release valued terror-ists from Gitmo to help Jihad.

Systematic lying as a reli-gious policy is deadly. Muslimsare permitted to lie for specificreasons. The definition of theterm al-Taqiyya: deception, theIslamic word for concealing ordisguising one’s beliefs, convic-tions, ideas , feelings, opinions,and/or strategies.

A beautiful sunlit day,and I’m walking my twodogs through SummitPark. This is where I, andthey, most want to be.

A natural world cele-brating trees and birds.Trails offering the colorsand sounds of insects,bugs and wildlife. Belowmy feet is a teeming eco-system of tiny creatures Ican’t see, but I feel theirethereal presence.

The low sky has itsown ecosystem, of whirl-ing and speeding recre-ational drones, radio-controlled by hobbyists.The planes and coptersare beautiful in their ownright. Some gracefullylooping and rolling intheir flight. Others zip-ping about with a crazedneed to dart erratically atfrightening speeds.

Over the past year, thisspace above our headshas become increasinglycongested with hobbydrones, including flyingbehemoths with impres-sive wingspans. As ourpark increasingly be-comes a beloved familydestination, it’s time toconsider whether danger,in this mixed-use area, isone we have complacent-ly accepted. Danger lurk-ing just above our aware-ness.

Although each drone isa potentially lethal pro-jectile, the enthusiastsI’ve observed appear tobe responsible in theoperation of their planes.As required by park au-thorities, they are li-censed by the Academyof Model Aeronautics.They have studied therequired training manualthat comes with theirparticular drone.

However, many of theoperators I have spokenwith agree that someflyers have no businessparticipating in thissport. They run theiraircraft at the expense ofpublic safety. Some don’tunderstand wind cur-rents, or lack rudimen-tary drone control, espe-cially with landings.

Skilled hobbyists haveseen novices, withoutAMA licenses, walk intothe park with their newAmazon-purchased $200planes. Opening the box

for thefirst time,they ig-nore theinstruc-tion man-ual, andsoon havetheirplanealoft. Asone pilottold me,

“they seem to have nounderstanding of howsuddenly a gust canknock a drone off pat-tern.”

That’s a lot of potentialmayhem to be purchasedfor so little. It is theseout-of-the-box beginnerswho raise the odds ofmisfortune befallingwalkers and cyclists.

Creating a separatezone for drone enthusi-asts could prevent aplane or copter fromcrashing into a vulner-able, unsuspecting per-son. Thinking about thisthe other day, I saw twodrones collide in midair.The smaller of the twobroke into pieces; themuch larger plane with-stood the fierce impact.Now I am wondering howmany close calls SummitPark must witness everyday.

National and staterules governing the useof drones-both militaryand recreational-current-ly are being drafted. Inthe meantime, for ourpublic green space, rec-reational users shouldhave a venue of their ownto enjoy their magnifi-cent flying machines.

Preventing an avoid-able accident is smart.Our community shouldnot have to cope with atragedy that, in retro-spect, was an obviousthreat all along. It’s notbeing Chicken Little tosay that the tranquility ofSummit Park could beshattered. No, the sky isnot falling. And, hopeful-ly, neither will a malfunc-tioning or ineptly-guideddrone.

WYOMING — Coming offa state appearance last sea-son as a junior, Ben Stites ofWyoming leads the Cincin-nati Hills League in the 800,1,600 and 3,200 meters.

Most races this seasonhaven’t been in question.The major question for thelanky senior has been howfar ahead he will be in frontof the second-place runner.Wyoming track coach Tra-vis Glendenning has beenmapping Stites’ return tothe Jesse Owens MemorialStadium all season.

It started with a compet-itive meet at Monroe.

“There was some goodcompetition there,” Glen-

denning said. “One of theguys was second in the statein the 3,200. Ben got somenice competition early onand went first in the 1,600and 3,200. He’s been consis-tently at the top in eachrace, so we try to work ondifferent things each timeout.”

At the Anderson Invita-tional, during the 1,600, thecoach had him focus on hissecond 800 meters, whichhe won.

In addition to the speedand senior leadership ofStites, Wyoming featuresjunior Cullen O’Brien in the1,600 and the reliable seniorMax Hoffman. Hoffmanalso made state last season

SHARONVILLE — If the plan is tolift a member of Princeton HighSchool’s baseball team up over yourhead, Logan Reitter likely wouldn’tbe your first choice. Of course, Reit-ter didn’t leave his teammates achoice.

They hoisted the 6-foot-5, 220-pound left-hander up over theirheads in front of the scoreboard onthe Dayton Dragons’ Fifth ThirdField April 21 after Reitter hurled ano-hitter in a 4-0 win over New Mi-ami.

“This is why we do this,” saidPrinceton coach Rick Wilson to hiscoaching staff as he watched his teamcelebrate history. “I only wanted tothrow him three or four innings and Ithought ‘I’m gonna have to wrestlethis guy to get him off the mound.’”

Wilson let his lefty stay in thegame as he peppered the scoreboardwith goose eggs.

“You don’t really pay attention un-til about the fourth inning,” Wilsonsaid. “I deliberately (didn’t) talk tohim. In the seventh inning, what ourplayers started doing was every timehe threw a strike the guys on thebench would stomp their feet for him.

“(Logan’s) grandparents were intown, you couldn’t have written a bet-ter script for the whole thing. Thosemagical moments just don’t happenall that often.”

Wilson’s been a baseball coach for20 years and this was only his secondno-hitter. Reitter, who’s currentlytied for second in the Greater MiamiConference in strikeouts (33), cametwo errors away from a perfectgame.

“(His teammates) mobbed him,”Wilson laughed recounting the mo-ments following the final out. “Theyknocked him to the ground, then the

boys picked him up. Seeing the waythat night went with the kids was justgolden to me.”

Princeton’s current seniors havebeen without a verifiable home field.

“As freshmen, the first thing to go,with the new renovations, was thebaseball field. These guys have neverhad a true home field, and we wantedto do something nice for them,” Wil-son said.

Wilson, whose optimism is clearlycontagious, started all his seniors.Princeton’s only won six of its first 18games. It’s an improvement but itparlays only a partial picture. Prince-ton hasn’t won more than sevengames since 2011.

Wilson, now in his third season,said in years past the Vikings made ahabit of letting games get away fromthem. This season’s been different,Wilson said.

“We’ve only had one game (thisyear) I was kind of disappointed inletting it get away,” he said.

Wilson’s optimism has bledthrough and they’ve taken a compet-itive leap forward. There’s anotherstep on Wilson’s radar.

“I don’t want to just be competi-tive. I want to win,” Wilson said.

in the 3,200.With graduation tak-

ing some of the Wyomingsprinters, others havehad to pick up the slack.

“The big surprise hasbeen in the 400 with EvanCramer,” Glendenningsaid. “He just got intorunning a few years ago.His improvement hasbeen awesome. He’s beenreal versatile for us. He’sa good 5K runner for usall the way down to our

4x200 relay.”Wyoming is always a

favorite thanks to theirmiddle-distance andlong-distance runners.They also offer up KolanLivingston, the topthrower in the CHL dur-ing the month of April.Livingston threw the dis-cus 148’ 6” and he also isin the top 10 in the leaguein the shot put.

“We are confident inpreparing Ben (Stites)for the end of the year,”Glendenning said. “Hewas seventh last year in areally tight race. He hadwon the regional.”

The latest title de-fense comes up May 14-15at Taylor High School.

In the short events,Glendenning and theCowboys are still lookingfor a hero.

“We have a lot of newkids as sprinters,” Glen-denning said. “A lot ofkids have never ran.Some came from thefootball team and we’restarting to be competi-tive.”

The Wyoming girlsalso feature a talenteddistance group led bysenior Katie Spray. Be-hind her are sophomore

Whitley Elsass and fresh-man Lily Parker.

“We have a lot of dis-tance runners,” Glenden-ning said. “People have tobe versatile and swingback and forth. GabbyMorris has been our mosttrue sprinter at eighth inthe 200 and fourth in the400. We’ve put people innew places on both boysand girls sides.”

Wyoming’s girls alsocompete in the CHLChampionship May 14-15.Prior to that they’re atthe McKee-Kiwanis Invi-tational May 6-7 at Marie-mont’s track.

SYCAMORE TWP. — Tom Ken-nedy’s four sons will be on handMay 9 to watch as the MoellerHigh School lacrosse team paystribute to their father - the fa-ther of Crusader lacrosse - in“Play for TK Day” May 9.

Kennedy, who died in Janu-ary, will be the focal point as theboys take on Columbus DeSalesat the Gerry Faust AthleticComplex.

He served as school’s headcoach twice after starting theprogram. His older sons camehome one day and announced totheir mother Father Tedescohad found a lacrosse coach.With a leap of faith, Kennedybegan Crusaders’ program in1987-88.

With an overall record of 139-57 at Moeller, he coached na-tionally-ranked squads in 1992and 1993 and was elected to theOhio Lacrosse Hall of Fame in2001. His four sons (Tom Jr. ’88,Matt ’90, Jim ’93 and Pat ’97) allplayed for Moeller and movedon to Division I lacrosse.

“We had a target on ourbacks all year long after win-ning the 1992 Ohio champion-ship,” Jim Kennedy recalled.“My dad sought me out in themiddle of the the field and weembraced and gave each other abig hug. My dad kept saying.‘We did it!’”

Since arriving at Moeller lastyear, current head coach SeanMcGinnis has researched theschool’s history and comparesKennedy to the gridiron legend,Faust.

“That’s what Tom Kennedymeans to the lacrosse pro-gram,” McGinnis said. “Hestarted the program at Moellerand started a lot of lacrosse lo-cally. He’s coached a lot of All-Americans and was a two-time,

back-to-back state champion.We owe a lot to his legacy. Weput on the back of our shirts thisyear, ‘Protect the Legacy.’”

Kennedy started with oneteam and several players whohad never picked up a stick. Inhis fifth season, Moeller was astate champion. Now, the pro-gram has a varsity and two JVteams totaling 65 players.

“I remember not knowingwhat to expect since just abouteveryone on our team had neverplayed before,” oldest son TomKennedy Jr. said. “I remembermy Dad did not have this wor-ry.”

Added youngest son, Pat,“The Moeller program always

focused on fundamentals,toughness and discipline. Thosetraits were stressed by our dadfrom the first practice all theway through his last day coach-ing in 2008.”

As with all Moeller sports,they shy away from no one.They have already faced thestate’s No. 1 team in St. Xavierand the No. 5 team in Worthing-ton Kilbourne. Early on, theytook on Louisville Trinity andLouisville St. Xavier. They alsowent to Indiana to tangle withtop programs in Carmel andCulver Academy.

After starting with winsagainst Trinity and Seven Hills,Moeller lost five straight before

defeating Kiski Prep of Penn-sylvania and Division II powerMariemont.

“This is like a transitionyear,” McGinnis said. “We’retrying to put a lot of our systemsand philosophies in. Game bygame, the kids are picking up.”

The defense has held Moell-er in many games led by seniorsJack Toomb and Grant Clarkand goalie Mitch Nietupski.Seniors Nick Cinquina and EricReynolds and sophomore CoryLockwood have led the scoring.

Shirts reading “Play for TK”will be available May 9. Thegame with DeSales begins at 3p.m..
