Say this for La Salle — not only are theLancers good, they make it easy forscoreboard clock operators.

For the second straight year, theLancers built such a big lead in the Divi-sion II state championship game the run-ning clock rules were in effect in thefourth quarter.

La Salle defeated Massillon Perry42-0 Friday at Oho Stadium to win its sec-ond consecutive Divsion II state title.

Senior Jeremy Larkin had 11 carriesfor 62 yards and two touchdown carries.He had three receptions for 57 yards. Hefinished the season with 38 total touch-downs.

“Every team from now on will be com-pared to this team,” La Salle coach JimHilvert said. “There is no doubt about it.What these seniors did these last twoyears is unbelievable.”

Senior lineman Luke Doerger scoredthe game’s first touchdown by recover-ing a Jarell White fumble in the end zone.

“Beyond words,” Doerger said. “Itwas insane. This entire thing is beyondbelief. What a way to go out.”

La Salle head coach Jim Hilvert raises the state championship trophy at midfield.

WESTWOOD - For nearly seven dec-ades they worked together running abusiness; discussing expenses, repair or-ders and the latest trends in lamp colorswhile seated at desks facing one another.

“We made a good team,” said MargeGable, who founded Gable Electric inSouth Fairmount with her late husband,Herb.

“He was a farm boy and I was a citygirl. I think that’s what made it work be-cause we had two different ideas onthings.”

The West Side couple – he was fromDelhi Township and she was raised inCheviot – opened their Harrison Avenueshop in February 1947, just five monthsafter they were married in September1946.

“It was just the two of us,” Mrs. Gable,who now lives in Green Township, said.

“We both had other jobs at the timeand we kept working those jobs until wegot the business up and running.”

Throughout its more than 68-year his-tory, Gable Electric remained a family-owned business focused on quality andservice. Although the tenets of the com-pany have been unyielding, the heart ofthe business just isn’t the same.

Herb Gable died this past summer atthe age of 90. He was still working at thebusiness he helped build the week hedied.

With her partner gone, Mrs. Gable hasdecided it’s time for the company’s longrun to come to an end. Gable Electric willclose its doors sometime next year.

“I wonder what I will do with mytime,” she said.

“I still am the bookkeeper and work 40hours a week.”

Young entrepreneursHerb and Marge Gable met while

they were teenagers in 1942, at a skatingrink on Ferguson Road.

“I asked him if he had a car,” she said.“I knew I’d save 9 cents in bus fare if hecould give me a ride home.”

After his service in the U.S. Navy,where he was trained as an electrician,they got married and opened their busi-ness.

“It’s probably safe to say mom startedthe business,” son Mike Gable said.

“She’s been a businesswoman fromday one, and she always wanted to ownher own business. Their dream was toopen a business before dad turned 21.

“People didn’t think they would makeit, but they were a determined youngcouple,” he said.

Mr. Gable started out repairing smallelectronic motors, they types found inwater pumps, refrigerators, clocks andradios. Television soon became popularand he began repairing those as well, of-ten making night calls to the homes ofWest Siders to fix their TVs.

The residential construction boom inthe suburbs in the 1960s then demanded

West Side business closing after nearly 70 yearsKurt [email protected]

Marge Gable will close the business sometime next year. The couple started the business as anelectrical repair shop and over the years it grew to include a retail store, while Mr. Gable alsodid residential and commercial electrical wiring.

Elizabeth Galbraith left her groceries and car behind when shewas taken to the hospital after a brutal knife attack.

A woman slashed ashopper with a large knifeduring a robbery in aWestwood Kroger parkinglot Nov. 25 before bystand-ers stepped in and sub-dued her, police said.

Ashley Rhoads,23, is facing feloni-ous assault and ag-gravated robberycharges related tothe incident at theKroger on Glen-way Avenue.

Elizabeth Gal-braith, 35, was pushing hergrocery cart just after 8p.m. when she was ap-proached by Rhoads, whodemanded Galbraith’spurse, according to Cin-cinnati police Sgt. Jim Per-kins.

Rhoads then beganswinging the knife at Gal-braith, Perkins said.

“She was getting bru-tally attacked with thisbig, edged weapon,” hesaid.

Galbraith suf-fered cuts to herhands fending offthe suspect.

Brian Garcia,48, was nearby. Hejumped out of hiscar to help. Rhoadsturned on him, cut-

ting his hands and knock-ing him to the ground, Per-kins said.

“Then all sorts of otherpeople who were out in theparking lot came to help.Two females and anothermale actually came andtook her to the groundwhile other people ran in-side to get the securityguard,” Perkins said.

The security guard wasable to handcuff Rhoadsand detain her until policearrived.

Garcia was treated atthe scene and released.Galbraith was taken to

University of CincinnatiMedical Center, leavingher car and her groceriesinside the police tape atthe scene.

“An incredible act ofcourage by the citizenshere on the West Side ... tointervene when someoneis armed with a big knifelike that,” Perkins said.“At least seven people gotinvolved in a potentiallyserious, dangerous situa-tion. I’m proud of them.”

his talents, and he wiredthousands of homes in theneighborhood surround-ing Northgate Mall, MikeGable said.

The commercial wir-ing industry then camecalling, and Mr. Gabletraveled the country set-ting up electrical systemsfor various factories andplants.

“Dad was a masterelectrician,” son MarkGable said. “He was busyaround the clock, and hetaught a lot of people whathe knew. He knew his(electrical) code book in-side and out.”

Throughout it all, Mrs.Gable, who learned ac-counting at the old St. Xa-vier commercial school,managed the company’sfinances.

“Mom did the books thewhole time,” Mike Gablesaid. “She made sure westayed on track. The busi-ness would not have last-ed without mom’s skills.”

The retail shopEven as Herb Gable

traversed the country toset up commercial electri-cal systems, the busi-ness’s retail store and re-pair shop at 2034 HarrisonAve. continued to operate.

“I worked at the storeand I raised all our kids atthe store,” Mrs. Gablesaid.

Mike Gable said thestore was their homeaway from home, andthey only went up thestreet to their house inWestwood to sleep.

“The store was reallyour home,” he said. “Wespent more time here thananywhere. This was one ofthe anchors of the neigh-borhood.”

The seven-room shopis filled with lamps, lampshades, fixtures, bulbsand rebuilt antique lampsand fixtures. Mrs. Gablepicked up a lot of the in-

ventory during tripsaround the world with herhusband.

They used to carrymore than 500 lamps,more than 700 light fix-tures and 2,500 lampshades.

“Someone came inonce and asked if we soldlamp shades. We didn’t atthe time, but we soonstarted carrying them,”she said. “For a while, wehad more lamp shades instock than anyone in thecity.”

Gable’s daughter, SuePrieshoff, who hasworked at the store on andoff her entire life, saidthey also have a large se-lection of replacementglass for lamps and lightfixtures, hard-to-find-parts and circuit break-ers, and can repair justabout any type of lamp orfixture.

“People bring us itemsthat can’t be fixed any-where else. If it’s weird,it’s here,” Prieshoff said,adding that they onceturned a stuffed blowfishinto a lamp for a customer.

“We still have a lot ofold parts, which you can’tfind anywhere anymore.”

The family will put theshop up for sale next year,but it will stay open for thenext four to five months.

Their inventory of lampsand light fixtures is onsale for 50 percent off.

Closing the booksAs difficult as it is to

close the business she andher husband built fromthe ground up, Marge Ga-ble is ready.

She has 68 years offond memories and canlook back on a successfulfamily business thathelped thousands of arearesidents with their elec-trical needs and over theyears employed morethan 300 people.

“I enjoyed meeting allthe people who came toour store,” she said.

“We went around theworld and got a lot of ourinventory from our trav-els, and it’s nice to knowpeople liked the items Ibought.”

And the icing on thecake – she got to workalongside the love of herlife.

“This business is whoshe is, it gave her a pur-pose,” Mike Gable said.

“We’re very proud ofour parents, and the timehas come to put the busi-ness to rest.

“We thank the commu-nity for all their years ofsupport,” he said.

GREEN TWP. – Resi-dents can expect to seethe township continue us-ing a funding tool to makeroad repairs, improveparks, buy emergency ve-hicles and upgrade infra-structure to support eco-nomic developments forat least another two dec-ades.

The township has ex-tended its Tax IncrementFinancing program for anadditional 15 years.

The board of trusteesvoted Nov. 23 to amendthe township’s originalTax Increment Financing(TIF) resolution, whichwas passed in June 1994,allowing the fund to be ex-tended for 15 more years.

Frank Hyle, GreenTownship’s attorney, saidthe TIF established in

1994 was scheduled to runfor 30 years, expiring inJune 2024. He said anamendment in the statebudget bill approved thispast summer authorizesthe township to extend theTIF for a period of 15years.

Green Township’s TIFwill now run until June2039, he said.

Aside from the exten-sion, Hyle said the opera-tion of the township’s TIFprogram remains thesame.

Tax Increment Financ-ing dollars are derivedfrom the increased as-sessed value of any im-provements made to realestate property locatedwithin a specifically des-ignated TIF district. In-stead of the property tax-es paid on the increasedassessed value of thoseparcels going to levies

collected by taxing agen-cies in the county andtownship, the money goesinto a TIF fund the town-ship can use for specialprojects and capital im-provements. The excep-tion is school district lev-ies; school districts stillreceive property taxesfrom parcels in the TIFdistrict.

“The schools are heldharmless,” Hyle said.

Trustee Chairman To-ny Rosiello said the town-ship was one of the firstmunicipalities in the stateto implement a TIF pro-gram in 1994, and thereare more than 5,000 desig-nated TIF parcels in thetownship.

“The TIF has been atremendous help to GreenTownship,” he said. “Itgives us the opportunityto make additional invest-ments in the township.”

Money in the TIF fundcan only be spent on roadimprovements, land ac-quisition for public pur-poses, park improve-ments, police and fire ve-hicle purchases, policeand fire equipment pur-chases and improvementsto the township’s publicbuildings. By law, the TIF

cannot beused forgasoline,utility bills,salaries orbenefits.

Rosiellosaid theprogramhas al-

lowed the township tokeep tax dollars in thecommunity for resurfac-ing residential streets, up-grading township parks,partnering with the coun-ty to repair major roads,buying new police andfire vehicles and makinginfrastructure improve-ments to spur economicdevelopments the likes ofMercy Health – West Hos-pital and HarrisonGreene.

“The TIF is very im-portant,” he said.

Green Township Ad-ministrator Kevin Cela-rek said the TIF generat-ed about $23.7 million in2015. Of that, he said about$15.1 million went back tothe four school systems inthe township – Oak Hills,Northwest, CincinnatiPublic and Great Oaks.

The township’s sharethis year is about $8.6 mil-lion, and he said roughly$8 million has gone to roadimprovements, park up-grades, new sidewalksand sidewalk improve-ments and police and firevehicles and equipment.

Rosiello said extendingthe program an additional15 years is beneficial fortownship residents, as ithelps the township main-tain low property taxrates for taxpayers.

“Fifteen years is a long,long time,” he said. “We’regoing to take advantage ofit whenever it makessense economically.”

Green Township extendsits TIF until June 2039Kurt [email protected]

WESTWOOD – Motherof Mercy High School sen-ior Hemen Aklilu is rais-ing money to support theeducation of children inher native homeland ofEthiopia.

When she was 8-years-old, Aklilu’s father andstepmother moved here tothe United States to allowher to pursue a better edu-cation and greater oppor-tunities.

She said as a youngsterin Ethiopia she often won-dered why she was fortu-nate enough to go to schooland learn English andFrench, while other chil-dren in her communitycould not.

“I always thought tomyself, ‘I’m going to helpthem,’” the Westwood teensaid.

Using the opportunitiesand resources she wasprovided as a young girl,Aklilu is returning the fa-vor to young children inher former country. Work-ing with the nonprofit or-ganization Ethiopia’s To-morrow, she’s raising

money tobuy Kindlee-readersfor theAbune An-dreas Or-phanageand schoolin Dire Da-wa, Ethio-pia.

“My education got meto this point,” she said.“How can I help those whoare in Ethiopia who don’thave that opportunity foreducation? I really wantedto do something for theeducation of kids.”

Roughly 700 childrenlive and go to school at theAbune Andreas Orphan-age, and a typical classwith one teacher may haveas many as 90 students.

While she knows shemay not be able to help allthe children, Aklilu saidshe’s doing what she can.

“If you have a passionfor something, you’re nottoo young to make a differ-ence,” she said. “No re-sponse is too small tohelp.”

Along with basic neces-sities such as blankets,medication, shoes, cloth-

ing and food, Ethiopia’s To-morrow also donates Kin-dle e-readers to the or-phanage. Traditional text-books and books areexpensive to buy and ship,and she said they’re alsolimited in content. With aKindle or other electronicbook device, students candownload an almost un-limited number of booksand other resources.

She said her goal is tobuy as many Kindle e-readers as possible for theorphanage.

Mercy spokeswomanEllen Daniel said the highschool is fully supportiveof Aklilu’s efforts. She saidAklilu knows Mercy val-ues the education of youngwomen and is connected toglobal needs, and under-stands education is one ofthe Sisters of Mercy’s fivecritical concerns.

Daniel said Akliluasked the administrationfor a way to help raisemoney for Ethiopia’s To-morrow, and the school of-fered to turn its Breakfastwith Santa event into afundraiser for her project.

All proceeds from theDec. 5 holiday event will

benefit Aklilu’s fundrais-ing efforts.

Through this experi-ence, Aklilu said she’slearned she has the abilityto take on more than sheever thought possible.

“I can have a global im-pact,” she said. “It leavesyou speechless to knowyou can do something tohelp kids.”

Those who want to con-tribute to Aklilu’s projectcan call Mercy at 661-2740.Anyone who wants to do-nate to Ethiopia’s Tomor-row can visit www.ethiopiatomorrow.org.

Those who attendedthis year’s tailgate partyand Skirt Game helped thecommittee recycle 75pounds of trash, morethan half of which wasbeer cans, Kober said.

“We were able to recy-cle a lot of beer cans,” hesaid.

The committee washonored to be recognizedfor its recycling efforts,and a bit shocked as well,he said.

“It was the last thing inthe world I thought we’dwin an award for,” he said.

I should practice what I preach. Youknow how I’m always telling you at thebeginning of the holiday season to stock upon staples, like sugar, butter, flour, etc.Well, guess what I ran out of today? Allthree!

I had barely enough brown sugar andbutter to make yet another test recipe ofthe Wms. Sonoma hot fudge chocolatesauce that I’ve been asked to clone. In mydefense, though, I started the season outwith what I thought was plenty, but withall the classes, presentations and plain old funcooking for family and friends, I did run out. Butthat’s OK. A trip to the grocery was a much need-ed break from the kitchen.

Crunchy white peppermint barkSee the bark in the photo? I have that

recipe, along with more good bark recipeson my Abouteating.com site.

Tip from Rita’s kitchen: Sticky,stuck lids

To avoid this on jars of honey, corn syr-up, etc., spray the inside of the lid and alsothe outside rim of the jar.

Rita’s clone of Wms. Sonoma’s hot fudgesauce

Oh my gosh, I think I nailed it! Talk about a nice gift fromthe kitchen, not to mention easy and a lot less expensive thanstore bought. Plus the love you put into this is priceless.

For Marcia in Deer Park and Natalie in Indian Hill. This is asclose as I can get to their hot fudge sauce. Wms Sonoma’s doesn’thave corn syrup in theirs, but in order to get the consistency andshine I wanted, I added some. Using a high quality chocolate baris important. Don’t use chocolate chips. This doubles easily andlooks as good as it tastes.

2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, good quality1/3 cup whipping cream5 tablespoons light corn syrup8 oz bittersweet chocolate bar, chopped2-1/2 tablespoons salted butter (if using unsalted, add a

pinch of salt)3 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar

In a heavy saucepan, stir the cocoa powder and whippingcream until smooth. Then turn heat to medium and add rest ofingredients. As it cooks, stir constantly with a whisk. When it startto hit a gentle bubbling boil all over, let it alone and continue tocook like that for 5 minutes. This allows the flavors to marry andproduces a depth of flavor found in hot fudge. Let it cool, andstore, covered in frig. It will get too firm to pour, so warm it gent-ly before using.

Rita’s clone of Wms. Sonoma’s peppermintfudge sauce

OK so they don’t carry this anymore but when they did, Icouldn’t get enough of it. So what I did was made another batchof fudge sauce and added a teaspoon of pure peppermint extractafter I pulled it from the stove. All I’ll say is I ate way too muchstraight from the pan.

Crockpot bourbon glazed salami

From Kim, a member of my recipe group. She’s a down-towner, and said, “This was another Thanksgiving recipe that wasgone in minutes.” So, you can’t get a better recommendationthan that. Kim usually buys whole kosher salami for this, since shefinds that works best. What an unusual appetizer for a holidaygathering!

Large whole salami 1 cup apricot preserves1/2 cup maple syrup2 tablespoons bourbon

Slice the salami – about one inch. Then cut each slice intoquarters. (You want bite size piece to fit on a toothpick) Put intocrock-pot. Combine the other three ingredients together. Poorover salami and mix together so every piece is covered. Cover andcook on low for 6 hours. Put on a plate with toothpicks.

Tip: Substitute kielbasa for the salami if you prefer.

In the December 11, 2011Price Hill Historical Societynewsletter, Larry Schmoltreminisces about dating duringthe holiday season at the startof World War II:

“There wasa time whenwindow dress-ing was veryimportant toevery retailbusiness, espe-cially duringthe holidays. Iremember ashoe salesmanin a downtownstore, with a

weekly salary of $15 a week,who went in on Sundays todress the windows. Not onlydowntown but also along War-saw Avenue, the windows werenicely decorated from Huber’sDepartment store out to St.Lawrence Bakery. The bakeryalways had so many goodies inthe window and with the fanfrom the rear baking areablowing out the good smells,who could resist going in andbuying some sweets?

“A favorite thing for youngmen and ladies, in pre- andearly war years was to go win-dow shopping. Not havingmuch money, you could stilllook, and wish. Sometimes aSunday night date meant bum-ming a street car pass off momor grandma and making your

way to town. Your first stopwould be on Fourth Street, menat Burkhardt’s and ladies atJenny’s; you wished that some-day you would be able to wearclothes like the models in thewindows.

“Then you came back toyour own class, the ladies atRollman’s and the men at Rich-man’s Clothes. Next stop wasacross Vine Street to see theshoes at Flagg Brothers. Onealways wondered how they gotthe shoes to shine as bright asthey did. If you were luckyenough to have money to buy apair, you noted the numberthat was on the shoe, youwould go in, take a seat and tellthe clerk the number of theshoe you wanted.

“Next was the store we allloved at the corner of Seventhand Race – Shillito’s. The win-dows on Seventh from Race toElm would be loaded withclothes. They even had severalwindows set aside for itemsour pocketbook could afford.But best of all was the giantwindow at Seventh and Elm. Italways had a special display,and who, of our generation, canever forget the way it wasdecorated for Christmas? Yes,this was something special forkids to see and then, like in“The Christmas Story” youwent upstairs to visit Santa.

“After all this, maybe youhad a few coins in your pocket.

You and your date could dropby one of the many Dow Drug-stores in town and have a 15cent nectar soda. Then it wastime to get back on the street-car and head for The Hill. Whosaid we didn’t have fun in thosedays? We certainly knew howto make the most of what wehad.

“Some things are not sodifferent now. Good scents stillfloat out of St. Lawrence Bak-ery. We continue to do a lot ofwindow shopping. But creditcards make it easier to buy,even when we don’t have mon-ey.”

The holidays are filled withjoy, happy times, and fun fes-tivities with family andfriends.

As the season quickly ap-proaches, we tend to alter ourlifestyle to accommodate forparties, social events, travelingand shopping trips. For manyof us, it's the busiest time of theyear. Along with the hustle andbustle of the season comesstress and poor eating habits.We may lose sight of ourhealthy balanced diets duringthis time and have regrets inJanuary. Here are some tips toeat healthy during the holidayseason.

1.) Avoid eating on the run.Try to plan out your mealsahead of time. Skipping mealsmay lead to overeating later inthe day. Eat when you are hun-gry. Include low calorie, highfiber/whole grain snacks, thiswill keep you feeling fullerlonger.

2.) Pay attention to what youeat through portion control. Eatsmaller portions and eat slow-ly. Remember exercise anddiet go hand in hand. By exer-cising or walking 10 to 15 min-utes per day, you can reduceblood sugar and stress levels.

3.) Remove the skin fromturkey to avoid unwanted fatand calories, eat lean whitemeat instead of darker meat.One serving of a meat portionshould be about the size of your

fist, palm of your hand orthickness of a deck of cards.

4.) Avoid butter and heavycream in recipes. Instead, tryusing half portion skim milkand half portion plain Greekyogurt in mashed potato or diprecipes. Refrigerate gravyallowing the fat to harden,skim off the fat from the top -this will reduce unwanted fatand calories.

5.) Avoid sour cream orcream cheese dips or spreads,try humus instead. Bring afavorite low calorie/healthydish or appetizer to your holi-day party.

6.) Eat more fresh fruit andraw vegetables, try eatingthem without dips.

7.) Try baked sweet potatoesinstead of candied yams. Avoidovereating carbohydrates. Forbetter carbohydrate control,spread carbohydrate typefoods throughout the day.

8.) For the sweet tooth in allof us, choose pumpkin pie withno whipped cream over pecan

pie and try ginger bread cook-ies rather than iced sugar cook-ies.

9.) Alcoholic beverages,punches and soft drinks pro-vide little nutritional value andmay lead to weight gain, avoidor limit your intake of thesebeverages. Drink plenty ofwater to stay hydrated; thiswill also help promote that fullfeeling in an effort to avoidovereating.

10.) Chew gum after you eatto avoid snacking or nibblingon leftovers. You may eat lessif you wear snug fittingclothes.

To stay healthy and avoidweight gain throughout theholidays, put focus on imple-menting the above simple tipsinto your lifestyle. Eat anddrink responsibly and remem-ber to make time for exercise.Remember to give thanks thisholiday season, prayer andreflection nourishes the soul!Enjoy the holidays and the NewYear!

Dec. 2 questionWhat is your favorite

Christmas song? Which art-ist’s version do you prefer?

"’Oh Holy Night’ cap-tures the essence of Christ-mas. Since I saw SarahBrightman in a live perfor-mance here in Cincinnati,no other woman's voicecarries anything like thepower and range she does.This song requires bothpower and emotion. We lostthe last incredible tenorwith the death of MarioLanza, who did the bestmale version of the song.Charlotte Church also hasenough power for the songand, for those who don'tcare for the ‘operatic’ qual-ity of the other two, she canmake you weep.”

D.B.

“The seasonal, holidaysong I love is ‘Fairytale ofNew York’ by the Pogues,with Shane MacGowan andKristy MacColl on vocals.The tune is cinematic inscope with a humorouspoignancy, keeping it freshfor me year to year.”

C.S.

“Frankly, none of them.If it existed, I suppose Iwould really enjoy ‘Christ-mas is Over’ by the groupFinally. I love the religiousmeanings behind Christ-mas and the fact that it is agreat excuse for families toreconnect, but the commer-cial side of Christmas hasso overwhelmed every-thing about the season andthe non-stop commercialson TV, radio and the In-ternet make me want tovomit. I know I am in avery small minority, butthe Christmas we celebratetoday is a far cry from theone 2015 years ago. I am,however, a staunch believ-er that this time of the yearmust be called Christmasand not the Holiday Sea-son.”

M.J.F.

“My favorite Christmassong is a duet by Bing Cros-by & David Bowie – “Peaceon Earth/Little DrummerBoy” from Bing’s 1977Christmas TV show. Crosbyand Bowie were two totalopposite singing talentsharmonizing two greatclassic holiday songs. Thisduet can be seen and heardon YouTube. Now if onlythe rest of the world couldharmonize for the holidaysthen there might be somereal peace on earth. GoFigure!”

PRICE HILL — Cincinnatiarea wrestling coaches votedElder the No. 2 Division I pre-season team, and for good rea-son.

The Panthers are coming offarguably one of their best sea-sons in recent history, with sixindividual state qualifiers. Lastyear Elder went 13-1as a team indual matches; its only loss wasin the state quarterfinals to theeventual dual team state cham-pion Brecksville-BroadviewHeights. Elder finished secondto No. 1-ranked Moeller at theGreater Catholic League Southtournament.

And while Elder lost somegreat wrestlers to graduation,the Panthers also return sometop talent.

Seniors Robby Oswald (160pounds), Sam Williams (145)and Rocco Salamone are co-cap-tains. Williams was a state alter-nate last season, but he quali-fied to state as a freshman. Os-wald, also a wide receiver andstate-qualifying pole vaulter,was a district qualifier last sea-son. Salamone will likelybounce around in the 145-152weight classes; a leader whowill contribute but happens tobe seated behind a couple ofpast state qualifiers, said third-year coach Jason Roush.

Elder also returns juniorJake Meridieth (138), juniorConnor Craig (152), sophomoreTi’Ric Evans (170) and sopho-more Austin Murphy (126) – allfour of whom were state qualifi-ers last season. Murphy was adistrict champion and Meri-dieth was district runner-up.

Junior Nino Salamone (132)and sophomore Chucky Lipps(120) were both starters and dis-trict qualifiers last season.

Roush is also excited aboutsophomore Antonio McCloud(182), who’s a member of the Ca-det National team with Murphyand Evans, and would have beena vital part as a freshman but aninjury required surgery, saidRoush.

“Definitely an exciting year(ahead),” said Roush. “Last yearwe went 13-1 in duals … won theregional dual team title whichallowed us to wrestle in the finaleight. I would say we were a bet-ter dual team last year; this yearsort of the opposite … we haveour young guys, a lot of themare going to be hitting the finals(in tournaments) this year.”

Last season, Roush said, thePanthers would have guys con-sistently placing third, fourth orfifth. This season, Roush ex-pects many of his guys (60 in theprogram) to be wrestling in thefinals at tournaments.

“Our depth is great,” saidRoush. “We have a lot of youngguys who are leaders and doingthe right things in the offseason.We’re excited to see wherewe’re at.”

After hosting the 11th annualElder duals tournament onDec. 5, the Panthers travel to St.X on Dec. 9 and Oak HillsDec. 10 for duals.

Follow @OHHSWrestling onTwitter and you’ll quickly un-derstand just how serious OakHills and fifth-year coach JoeCampolongo are when it comesto the sport. They travel togeth-er in offseason tournament andthe wrestling rarely stops.

The Highlanders are tied forNo. 6 in The Enquirer Division Ipreseason coaches’ poll, andrightfully so.

Returning this season forOak Hills are seven districtqualifiers, including one statequalifier from last season – sen-ior co-captain Dylan Buis (132pounds).

Senior co-captain DylanRoth also returns with his gazefocused on another big season.Last year Roth was a districtqualifier and Greater MiamiConference champion. Rothwas at 145 last season, but Cam-polongo said he ran into agrowth spurt and he’ll be at 170this year.

Injuries disrupted senior co-captain Brendan Marchetti’spostseason last year. As a sopho-more, Marchetti (220) was a dis-trict qualifier. Junior NickGoldfuss (160) is the final co-

captain. Goldfuss was a section-al champion last season.

Also returning to the startinglineup are juniors Dylan Urk(126) and Carter Johnson (120),as well as senior Hunter Shep-herd (182) and sophomoreMitchell Baines (113) – all ofwhom were district qualifierslast season.

Campolongo is also interest-ed to see what sophomore ChaseHaehnle can do at 138 poundsthis year.

“The willingness to travel toget better in the offseason,” saidCampolongo regarding what helikes about his team. “Their par-ents have been good friends,and flexible letting their kidstravel. Most hours we’ve everput into an offseason was thispast summer. The camaraderiealone, it was nice.”

The Highlanders’ homeopener is Dec. 10 in a dualmatch against Elder. The week-end before Christmas, Oak Hillswill wrestle in the annualCoaches Classic at HarrisonHigh School.

Ryan Williams is pleasedwith the transition to coachingTaylor, after spending the fouryears prior as head wrestlingcoach at Western Hills.

Williams brings Dick McCoywith him as an assistant coach.McCoy was the longtime headcoach at Elder.

Williams said his new squadhas “bought in.”

“Nobody’s put up any walls,”said Williams. “I think I’m thethird or fourth coach in the lastfive years, so I was definitelyexpecting some kids to put up awall … (but) they’ve bought inand I feel like I’ve built a nice re-lationship with all of them.”

The Yellow Jackets haveweapons returning in seniorsDamian Walton, Max Wilhelm,Devin Barkley, and sophomoreRobby Martini.

Walton, a sectional championlast season, will start the seasonat 145 pounds, but Williams saidhe should be down to 138 by Jan-uary. Martini (120) was also adistrict qualifier last season.Williams said Wilhelm (145)missed making districts lastseason, but he’s loaded with ex-perience. Wilhelm’s battling aninjury and won’t return until lat-er in December, said Williams.Barkley returns to the startinglineup at 195 pounds.

Williams said Taylor has 12wrestlers total, and “the rest ofthem I’m excited about … I feela lot of promise.”

“This group is ready to buildthe foundation and a great tradi-tion of wrestling at Taylor,” saidWilliams.

Taylor’s first home match ofthe season is Dec. 17 againstNorth College Hill.

The wrestling room at LaSalle is packed with potential.Mostly in the form of young-sters, but time will tell if poten-tial turns into touching that elu-sive podium at state.

The Lancers, tied for No. 6 inThe Enquirer Division I presea-son coaches’ poll, have two re-turning state qualifiers in ju-niors Corey Shie and Eric Beck.

Shie (132 pounds) is a two-time state qualifier and first-team selection in the GreaterCatholic League South. Beck(138) was second-team all-GCLSouth last year.

NORTH BEND — Motiva-tion is easy after coming upshort of a goal. Taylor’s girlsmade their mark in the poollast season, and the YellowJackets know they can im-prove, especially after fallingjust short of having its relayteams qualify for state lastyear.

The relays are inspired,but Taylor as a whole is confi-dent considering juniors Isa-belle Murray and Abby Ra-pien both return this seasonafter qualifying to state in apair of individual events.

Murray, who was firstteam in the Cincinnati HillsLeague last year, finishedfourth at the Division II statemeet in 100 butterfly andeighth in 100 backstroke. Ra-pien, who was second-teamall-CHL last year, missed thepodium with ninth place atstate in the 200 freestyle and13th in the 500 freestyle.

Taylor coach Steve Meyersaid the state experience leftMurray and Rapien, “hungryand working even harder.”Murray was “within a secondand a half of winning (state) infly; Abby would like to getback (to state) and improve.I’m sure she was happy (withqualifying), but she wants tobe in the top eight and makethat podium.”

The Yellow Jackets havetwo seniors, four juniors andeight freshman. Meyer saidthe age balance, particularlythe young talent, is “excitingand nice to have for the fu-ture.”

Also returning to the start-ing lineup will be senior SuttyGodar, a sprinter and strongleg on the relays that justmissed qualifying to statefrom the district last season.

Senior Abby Neyer is anotherexperienced leader. Meyersaid Neyer’s a good all-aroundswimmer that can help in a va-riety of strokes. Juniors LydiaWasserbauer and Holly Wa-nek round out the returningstarters. Wasserbauer’s solidacross different events, andshe qualified to district in the100 freestyle last year. Wa-nek, solid in the butterfly andbackstroke, adds depth andscoring power.

Murray and Rapien willpush for state again, and Mey-er said the “big goal is to getone of the relays to the statelevel; I’d like to get two (tostate).”

With only four boys on theteam, Taylor coach SteveMeyer said he hopes they canget “one or two” of his swim-mers through to the districtmeet. Last season, the YellowJackets failed to qualify anyboys to the district meet.

Three of Taylor’s fourswimmers are seniors, andtwo of those have been four-year swimmers for the Yel-low Jackets.

Brett Berra and CameronHall are both entering theirfourth year swimming. Bothcompete in the sprint events,and Berra also swims butter-fly.

Senior Brett Hume swamhis freshman year, but this ishis first year back in the wa-ter since his freshman season.Junior Michael Pangallo addsan edge in breaststroke andthe freestyle events.

“They’re a year older andwith boys they should be big-ger and stronger,” Meyersaid. “That’s what happenswith the boys, so they shouldbe stronger, they have the oneyear of experience underthem … they’re practicingwell, they’re definitely aheadof last year.”

Taylor High School’s Sutty Godar, right, prepares to lead off in the fifthheat of the 200 yard freestyle relay at Miami University last season.

Also returning to startingroles are senior Jared Thie-mann (120), a district qualifierlast year, junior Hunter Purdue(145), who missed all last seasondue to injury, and sophomoreBlake Wilson (160), another dis-trict qualifier.

The Lancers have experi-ence and they also have a big,talented freshman class thatshould have “five or six” guysstarting on varsity, said eighth-year coach Avery Zerkle.

“We have one of our biggestteams in a few years here with35 guys on the roster,” said Zer-

kle. “A little bit of maturity inthe upperclassmen and theseyounger guys coming in will beexciting to see how they do.”

The next step for La Salle is abetter postseason. Zerkle saidthe Lancers haven’t wrestledtheir best at season’s end.

“We have to have a good post-season,” said Zerkle. “We had agreat season (last year) but ourpostseason didn’t go quite theway we wanted it to.”

La Salle travels to Edgewoodon Dec. 12, and on Jan. 8 La Sallehosts Lakota West, Deer Parkand Roger Bacon on its seniorsand also alumni reunion night.

The start of Tom Wynn’s ca-reer coaching St. Xavier wres-tling has been unforgettable. InWynn’s first two seasons, the

Bombers made history withback-to-back undefeated statechampions.

Joe Heyob, who now wres-tles at Penn, went unbeaten in2013-14. Cole Jones, who’s play-ing football and wrestling atWest Point, did the unthinkablewhen he duplicated Heyob’sfeat last year.

“It’s going to be hard” tomake it three in row, Wynn said.Jones and Heyob – what setthem apart – Wynn said, was atenacious attitude and belief:“You’ve got to hate to lose morethan you like to win.”

At this point in the fresh sea-son, with football players stillmaking their way into the room,Wynn said his guys are still insearch of the Jones/Heyob for-

mula. “It could happen with one of

these guys this season,” Wynnsaid in regard to one of his wres-tlers finding a championshipmentality and work ethic seem-ingly required in every greatgrappler.

COLUMBUS – The Lancersroll deep yet again.

The La Salle football teamcaptured its second straight Di-vision II state title with a 42-0win over Massillon Perry Fri-day night in front of 11,168 atOhio Stadium.

With the state title Fridaynight, La Salle is the first areateam in Ohio to win back-to-back state football titles sinceMoeller (2012 and ’13).

La Salle coach Jim Hilvertspoke all season about the sen-iors leaving a legacy. The Lanc-ers did just that with a complet-ed journey on a cold Fridaynight at Ohio Stadium.

La Salle has 24 seniors, in-cluding 22 that were on the 2014state championship team.

The Lancers were hungryfor another ring. It was evidentall week.

“My pregame speech was allabout completing the missionand they completed the mission.We talked about it getting itright off the bat. Don’t waitaround, you go get it and takeit,” Hilvert said.

“I think our kids did it. Theyset the tempo – driving down thefield and getting that quicktouchdown. Defensively, get-ting our first shutout in the statechampionship game against Mr.Ohio says volumes about thesekids. Obviously the challengeand the chip they had on theirshoulder from this week. Wetalked about it. We won a statechampionship – that’s what wewant.”

La Salle (13-2) joined elitecompany with the school’s sec-ond state football title.

La Salle is the third DivisionII program since to win back-to-back state titles since the Ohio

High School Athletic Associa-tion went to five divisions in1980. The others include AkronBuchtel (1987 and ’88) and St.Marys Memorial (1992 and ’93).

“This year’s team hasbrought a great sense of pride tothe community,” La Salle athlet-ic director Dan Flynn said earli-er this week.

“Our student body, alongwith our parents, alumni, andstaff has added to the energy ofthe program each and everyFriday night this fall. Our goaland vision has pointed towardbuilding a program of this cali-ber for decades. We are nowcompeting at a championshiplevel and our expectation is tocontinue this level of successfor years to come.”

The Lancers wasted littletime on their opening drive af-ter starting at their own 36-yardline after Perry won the tossand deferred.

La Salle senior running backJeremy Larkin, who is verballycommitted to the University ofCincinnati, had receptions of 28and 24 yards on the second andthird plays of the opening drive,respectively.

The Lancers went for it onfourth-and-goal and senior of-fensive lineman Luke Doerger(Toledo commit) fell on juniorJarell White’s fumble in the endzone to give the Lancers thetouchdown. Senior Drue Chris-man added the extra point andLa Salle led 7-0 at the 8:24 mark.That completed a 7-play, 64-yard drive that took 3:36.

Perry punted on its first pos-session but the Panthers pickedoff La Salle near the end zone onthe Lancers’ second drive.

Perry saw its next drive stalland the Panthers’ errant puntattempt was recovered by LaSalle senior defensive linemanJohn Willcox, who returned it 32yards to the Perry 11.

The Lancers took advantageof the turnover two plays laterwhen Larkin scored on a 7-yardtouchdown run over left guardto help give the Lancers a 14-0

lead with 1:49 left in the secondquarter.

Larkin scored his secondrushing touchdown on a 10-yardcarry over left end to help givethe Lancers a 21-0 with 8:29 leftin the second quarter. Chris-man, an Ohio State commit,made his third extra point of thenight.

The Lancers’ defense heldfirm late in the second quarterafter Perry threw an incomple-tion in the end zone with 21 sec-onds left.

La Salle held a 21-0 lead athalftime.

Perry’s first drive stalled inthe third quarter and La Sallefreshman Jared Uran blockedthe Panthers’ punt to give LaSalle the ball at the Perry 27.

Six plays later, senior quar-terback Nick Watson foundWhite for a 9-yard touchdownpass connection and Chrismanadded the extra point to give theLancers a 28-0 lead with 6:46 leftin the third quarter.

That completed a 6-play, 27-yard drive that took 2:41.

Watson added a 32-yardtouchdown run with 8:59 left inthe fourth quarter and Chris-man added the extra point togive the Lancers a 35-0 leadwith 8:59 left in the fourth quar-ter.

Junior defensive back Tre-Sean Smith had a 47-yard inter-ception return for a touchdownto help give the Lancers a 42-0lead with 4:26. Chrisman addedthe extra point for his 65th con-secutive extra point of the sea-son.

La Salle was ranked No. 4 inthe Associated Press Division IIpoll, while Perry (12-3) wasranked No. 10.

The success of CyberMonday shows the pop-ularity of the Internetwhen it comes to bargainshopping. If you’re think-ing of buying a used caronline, you need to bevery careful.

Abbie Denen, of An-derson Township, saysher husband had beenlooking online for a usedtruck to pull a trailerfrom their home. Denensays, “He found one onCraigslist for $2,000,which was a 2005 DodgeRam 1500.”

Denen was looking atthe Cincinnati Craigslist

websiteand textedthe sellerthat he wasinterested.He thenreceivedquite astory fromthe seller.

“Shewas from

the Lebanon area and hadrecently been widowed.The truck was paid offand had 140,000 miles onit. She couldn’t keep it, itwas giving her bad mem-ories,” Denen said.

Unfortunately, the

more they got involvedtrying to buy the truckthe more complicated it.It turns out the truckwasn’t nearby in Lebanon– it was out in Utah. Butremember, the selleradvertised the vehicle onthe Cincinnati Craigslistwebsite even though itsthousands of miles away.

To try to keep theDenens interested, theseller claimed the vehi-cle came with an ebayBuyer Protection Plan. Inaddition, Denen says,“The shipping cost wouldbe hers. If somethingwas wrong with the truck

and we didn’t like it wecould send it back to her.She would pay the returnshipping costs.”

How did the sellerwant to be paid? Thesame way many scam-mers are operating thesedays. The scammer want-ed them to go to a drugstore, deposit the moneyon a prepaid debit cardand then email a pictureof the numbers on theback of the card. Theseller could then strip the$2,000 from that debitcard.

Denen says they gotsuspicious of the deal

when they couldn’t findany mention of the vehi-cle on ebay Motors web-site. She called ebaydirectly and says, “Theysaid if anyone offers youanything from an outsideentity it’s not real -- andCraigslist is an outsideentity.”

The Denens stoppingcommunicating withthose scammers and saythey want to warn every-one.

“They’re out there.They’re still puttingthings out there sayingthey’ll offer you an ebaybuyer protection plan.

That’s when you shouldrun.”

Bottom line; neverbuy a vehicle sight-un-seen. Always get a usedvehicle checked out byan ASE certified mechan-ic before buying so youknow everything that’swrong with it and canmake an informed deci-sion. Finally, beware ofanyone who wants you topay for something with aprepaid debit card.

Members of the General Assem-

bly clearly voiced their support for

a smoke-free Kentucky bill for the

2015 session last week that mirrors

previously failed legislation in 2014.

Denouncing the argument that a

smoke-free bill prohibiting smoking

in public places would kill business,

Brent Cooper, a business owner

from northern Kentucky, said not

only are businesses prospering

across the Ohio River in Cincinnati

with a smoke-free law, but that the

pubs in Ireland haven’t shut down

since the country put a ban on

smoking in the workplace 10 years

ago.Many legislators conferred that

public smoking was indefensible in

Kentucky given the state’s bad

health ratings compared to other

states throughout the U.S.

According to testimony from

Wayne Meriwether, CEO of Twin

Lakes Regional Medical Center,

second-hand smoke is just as dan-

gerous for those that don’t smoke.

all Kentuckians smoke. We lead the
