DELPHOS The Delphos Public Library is pulling out all the stoppers in the beakers for the Fizz! Boom! Read Summer Reading Program. With a sci-ence theme, children will participate in experiments and learn fun science facts with a variety of offerings from Tuesday through July 22.

Childrens Librarian Denise Cressman is ready to spend time with the little readers. Signup averages 300 children with the library seeing more than 2,000 throughout the five-weeks.

Im excited to start the summer program, Cressman said. Right now a lot of little pieces are still coming together but its a lot of fun. As soon as I get in the room with the kids Im ready; the details and the preparation fall away. Were having a good time.

The program will kick off with reg-istration from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Tuesday with come-and-go activities and science-related concoctions.

Science experiments like Food Lab, Theres No Place Like Space from the Neil Armstrong Museum and fire cracker floats are on the Bunsen burner for the Super Science Squad including grades K-5 at 2:30 p.m. and

6:30 p.m. June 17, July 1, July 8 and July 15. Back by popular demand are the Minnetrista Puppets for Furry Tails With a Twist at 6:30 p.m. July 1.

Preschoolers ages 3-4 will be Reading Robots at 11:30 a.m. on Mondays and 6:30 p.m. on Thursdays with activities like Robot Rainbows, Robot Rumba, Robots on a Sunny Day and Robots Love Magic. New this year is the 2s and 3s preschool storytime at 9:30 a.m. on Mondays beginning June 16.

The Teen Room will also host open houses from 2-4 p.m. on Tuesday, 17 and 24 and 9 a.m. to noon on June 21 and 28.

Adults will not be left out of the fun with Literary Elements. Director Kelly Rist has prepared an elements table with 103 different things that can be done at the library. After each one is completed, patrons can put their name in for a drawing for a Kindle or a Nook. Many other prizes will also be awarded.

Family Nights are a huge draw for the program. Preschoolers and parents will enjoy Tyler Nygren and his magic show at 6:30 p.m. July 17 and the Super Science Squad will see science come alive with Mr. Molecule at 6:30 p.m. June 24 at Jefferson Middle School Auditorium. This program is sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Delphos.

Readers should know the reading requirements have changed due to a shorter program because of an extended school year. Reading requirements are 100 hours a week for a total of 500 hours.

The program culminates with a pool party for grades K-5 who have completed the reading requirements. Families are welcome; sorry no friends. Non-swimmers are free and parents and siblings are $1. The party will be held at 8 p.m. on June 22 with a rain date of June 24.

The library will also offer a Movie Friday at 2 p.m. June 20 (Nut Job) and July 18 (LEGO Movie). Children can bring their own snack and those 6 and under need to be accompanied by a parent or caregiver.

VAN WERT Medical assis-tance are not the only needs many senior citizens face. For some, a good conversation helps keep them thinking straight and feeling better.

With that in mind, Community Health Professionals, Inc., is beginning a pilot program later this month. It is a new, non-med-ical senior companion service called Hometown Helpers.

The companionship program offers caregivers who will spend time with seniors, providing socialization and assistance with living tasks like grocery shopping, errands, playing games, reading, transportation to appointments, eating a meal together, feeding a pet and more.

Whether you live across the country or across the street from your aging family members, it helps to know they have some-one nearby who can check in and spend time with them, said CHP President/CEO Brent Tow. We hope to provide piece of mind for family members knowing they have a friendly companion who visits their loved one regularly.

SEATTLE A lone gunman armed with a shotgun opened fire Thursday in a building at a small Seattle university, killing one person before a student subdued him with pepper spray as he tried to reload, Seattle police said.

Police say a student building monitor at Seattle Pacific University disarmed the gun-man and several other students jumped on top of him and pinned him down until police arrived at the Otto Miller building.

A man in his 20s died at the hospital and a critically injured 20-year-old woman was taken to surgery, Harborview Medical Center spokeswoman Susan Gregg said. A 24-year-old man and a 22-year-old man were in sat-isfactory condition. None of the victims was immediately identified.

The afternoon shooting came a week before the end of the school year, and the situation was particularly tense when police initially reported that they were searching for a second suspect. They later said no one else was involved.

The university locked down its campus for

several hours, and alerted students and staff to stay inside. Some students were taking finals in the same building where the shooter was.

The school canceled classes Thursday eve-ning, and planned to hold a prayer service.

Were a community that relies on Jesus Christ for strength and well need that at this time, said Dan Martin, president of Seattle Pacific University, which is located at the edge of a leafy Queen Anne neighborhood about 5 miles from downtown Seattle.

Martin choked up when he talked about the stu-dent who put himself in harms way to protect others.

Jillian Smith was taking a math test on the second-floor of Otto Miller Hall when a lockdown was ordered.

She heard police yelling and banging on doors in the hallway. The professor locked the classroom door, and the 20 or so students sat on the ground, lining up at the front of the classroom.

We were pretty much freaking out, said Smith, 20, a sophomore. People were texting family and friends, making sure everyone was OK.

Residents relieved no one injured by military jetSAN DIEGO (AP) Military crews

on Thursday mopped up the debris of an exploded fighter jet that struck a Southern California neighborhood, as authorities launched an investigation into the latest crash of the Cold War aircraft with a history of problems.

The Harrier AV-8B had taken off from the Marine Corps Air Station in Yuma and was almost at his destination at Naval Air Facility El Centro when it went down Wednesday afternoon, going up in flames and destroying two homes and badly damaging a third. The pilot who was ejected landed in a nearby field and suffered only scrapes and bruises.

There were no injuries in the neigh-borhood, which is near a county airport and the El Centro training facility.

We have air traffic every day from big military helicopters to Osprey to Blue Angels flying over us, said resi-

dent Leonardo Olmeda, 25, who was racing remote-controlled cars in a street where children were playing when they saw the pilot eject and the jet ignite. Everybody seems relieved and thankful that the outcome of this was not worse.

Two of the displaced families in the newer neighborhood of Imperial a small desert city of about 15,000 people about 90 miles east of San Diego went to stay with friends or relatives, while the Red Cross put up one couple in a hotel Wednesday night. Officials were assessing whether any of the families would need longer-term help, such as rental assistance or other items, said Red Cross spokeswoman Courtney Pendleton.

Marine Capt. Anton Semelroth said the military was investigating to deter-mine whether human error, a mechani-cal failure or some other reason caused the jet to crash. The probe could take

months to complete.It was the second crash in a month

of a Harrier jet from the Yuma air base. On May 9, a pilot was able to eject safely before his jet crashed in a remote desert area near the Gila River Indian Community, south of Phoenix. No one was injured.

In July 2012, another AV-8B Harrier crashed in an unpopulated area 15 miles from the air base, which is among the busiest training aviation centers in the world for the Marine Corps.

The Harrier, built by McDonnell Douglas, is a single-engine attack jet that can land and takeoff verti-cally hence its nickname, Jump Jet. Military officials say the aircraft is being replaced by the F-35 because it has been in use for more than 40 years and has reached the end of its life cycle.

It also has had a problematic safety record over the years.

Official: US moving ahead with Guantanamo closureMIAMI (AP) President Barack Obama is moving ahead

with his push to close the Guantanamo Bay prison despite the uproar over the exchange of five Taliban prisoners for a captured American soldier, an administration official said Thursday.

The government has been working to reduce a backlog of pris-oners already approved after a security review for transfer to their homeland or repatriation elsewhere, the official told reporters.

The official said a significant number of prisoners are on their way toward release, but he declined to say precisely how many or when they would leave Guantanamo. The remarks were made on condition of anonymity amid fierce criticism in Congress over the decision to swap the five Taliban for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl.

The U.S. holds 149 men at Guantanamo. Most have been there without charge since the detention center opened in January 2002 to hold prisoners suspected of links to al-Qaida or the Taliban.

Among the total are 78 who have been cleared for transfer

to their homeland or repatriation to another country if the U.S. can get required security assurances.

Obama came into office pledging to close the detention center within a year but was thwarted by Congress, which adopted restrictions on transfers abroad and a ban on transfer-ring prisoners to the United States for any reason.

Last year, Congress eased the restrictions on transfers abroad but left in place a 30-day notice requirement that the Obama administration chose to skip in exchange for rescuing Bergdahl from captivity after five years.

Several Republicans in Congress are determined to keep Guantanamo open and bar Obama from transferring any prisoners.

Sen. Kelly Ayotte, a Republican from New Hampshire who is a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee and a chief pro-ponent of keeping the prison operational, said the Bergdahl swap represents a real-case example that she and other lawmakers can use in arguing for tougher restrictions on Guantanamo detainees.

FictionLincoln Myth by Steve Berry

September 1861: All is not as it seems. With these cryptic words, a shocking secret passed down from president to president comes to rest in the hands of Abraham Lincoln. And as the first bloody clashes of the Civil War unfold, Lincoln alone must decide how best to use this volatile knowl-edge: save thousands of American lives, or keep the young nation from being torn apart forever?

The present: In Utah, the fabled remains of Mormon pioneers whose

In Denmark, a Justice Department agent, miss-ing in action, has fallen into the hands of a dan-gerous zealota man

driven by divine visions to make a prophets words reality. And in

Instead she stayed in Walker for college, even taking a job in the university athletic depart-ment after graduation, where she has remained for more than a decade. But when an unexpected tragedy strikes the tight-knit Walker com-munity, Sheas comfortable world is upended, and she begins to wonder if the

Ghost Ship by Clive CusslerWhen Kurt Austin is injured attempt-

ing to rescue the passengers and crew from a sinking yacht, he wakes with frag-mented and conflicted memories. Did he see an old friend and her child drown, or was the yacht abandoned when he came aboard? For reasons he cannot explain, Kurt doesnt trust either version of his recollection.

Determined to know the truth, he begins to search for answers, and soon finds himself descending into a shadowy world of state-sponsored cybercrime, and uncovering a pattern of vanishing scien-tists, suspicious accidents, and a web of human trafficking. With the help of Joe Zavala, he takes on the sinister organi-zation at the heart of this web, facing off with them in locations ranging from Monaco to North Korea to the rugged coasts of Madagascar. But where he will ultimately end up even he could not begin to guess.

Young Adult#16thingsithoughtweretrue by Janet

GurtlerLike most teenagers, Morgans life isnt

perfect. And her summer is getting off to a rough start. An embarrassing moment was posted online. Her mom is suddenly in the hospital and her dad has never been a part of the pic-ture, until this summer. But who cares if people at work are whispering and pointing. Morgans Twitterverse is grow-ing. Shes about to hit 5,000 fol-lowers and shes hoping that will change everything. Janet Gurtlers novel, #16thingsithoughtweretrue, is a great summer book featuring a believable and likable main charac-ter thats facing issues readers will relate to their own lives. Besides a cool summer road trip, Morgan is o n another kind of journey. Its one of friend-ship, and discovery, where her beliefs are constantly being tested. Gurtlers work has been compared to Sarah Dessen, Jody Piccoult and Judy Blume.

Seeing and believing (Mike and Riel Mysteries) by Norah McClintock

In this fourth installment of Norah McClintocks mystery series, the action starts on page one. The main character, Mike, is questioned by the police about his friends involvement in a rob-bery and shooting at a local convenience store. One person is dead, another is in the hospital. Even though Mike and his

friend Vin havent talked since an incident months before, Mike really wants to believe Vin was not involved in the crime. With the help of ex-cop, Riel, it becomes Mikes mission to find an elusive alibi and prove Vin innocent. McClintocks story addresses all the complexities of murder, friendship and mystery.

GarzaFrom the Childrens CornerOh No! (Or How My Science Project

Destroyed The Earth)Oh No! Not Again (Or How I Built

A Time Machine To Save History) (Or At Least My History Grade) both by Mac Barnett

These two books are graphic picture books, writ-ten for the elementary set, with outstanding illustra-tions and very little text. The story is mostly told in the illustrations. In the science project story, the ambitious little girl builds a giant robot with ensuing chaos and destruction. In the

time machine story, the same little girl, who is too smart for

her own good, builds a time machine hop-ing to alter history and therefore, make the answer correct on her history test. Santat, the illustrator, has given the books a steam punk appearance.

Things That Float And Things That Dont by David A. Adler

The librarys summer theme is all about science and this book fits right in. A little science, plus a little water, throw in a few toys and you have a lot of fun. Readers can learn all about flotation, density, and water displacement in this entertaining and informative picture book. Learn why a ball of aluminum foil sinks, but a sheet of foil floats on the water. Also, why does a cube of solid steel sink, but a boat made of steel does not? Summer is a great time to play in the water and learn science at the same time.

Firefly July, A Year Of Very Short Poems by Paul Janeczko

When I was ten, one summer night, the baby stars that leapt among the trees like dimes of light, I cupped, and capped and kept (The Firefly July by J. Patrick Lewis). These may be rela-

tively short poems but they conjure up beautiful images of all four seasons. None of the poems are longer than ten lines. Illustrator Melissa Sweet uses bright hues and child-like water colors to harmonize with the well-chosen poems.

What We Found In The Sofa And How It Saved The World by Henry Clark

Three quirky friends find a sofa sit-ting at their bus stop

with a crayon, a single domino and a weird coin under the

cushions (they were looking for loose change). What do these innocent things have in common? Well, they are going to help the three friends save the world from evil invaders from another dimension, of course. This is truly a wacky story, the best kind to appeal to young readers with a lazy summer day ahead of them.

Miniature World Of Marvin & James by Elise Broach

Marvin is a young boy and James is his best friend and a beetle, of the insect type. Marvin is going on vacation, leaving James to spend the week with his annoying cousin Elaine, also a beetle. When Marvin returns, will he have to find a new best friend? Written in short chapters, it is just right for the emerging readers. This just may turn into a popular series.

TERRY MATTINGLY

OnReligion

Worship this week at the church of your choice.

Pope, patriarch, primacy and the pressThe Holy Land pilgrimage by Pope Francis

contained plenty of symbolic gestures, photo ops and soundbites crafted to slip into broad-casts, ink and Twitter.

There was his direct flight into the West Bank, the first papal State of Palestine ref-erence and the silent prayer with his forehead against the concrete security wall between Bethlehem and Jerusalem -- near graffiti pleading, Pope we need some 1 to speak about justice. He also prayed at a memorial for suicide-bombing victims and put a wreath on the tomb of Zionism pioneer Theodor Herzl.

The backdrop for the Manger Square Mass included an image of the infant Christ swad-dled in a black-and-white keffiyeh, the head-dress made famous by the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat. And, of course, the world press stressed the popes invitation to presidents Shimon Peres of Israel and Mahmoud Abbas of the Palestinian Authority to visit the Vatican for prayers, and surely pri-vate talks, about peace.

After days of statecraft, Francis arrived -- drawing little attention from major American media -- at the event that the Vatican insisted was the key to the trip. This was when Pope Francis met with Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I for a historic evening prayer rite in the ancient Church of the Holy

Sepulchre, a setting long symbolic of bitter divisions in world Christianity.

The symbolic leader of the worlds Eastern Orthodox Christians, the successor to the Apostle Andrew, had earlier invited Francis, the successor to the Apostle Peter, to join him in Jerusalem to mark the 50th anniversary of the breakthrough meeting between Pope Paul VI and Ecumenical Patriarch Athenagoras I. Their embrace ended 900-plus years of mutual excommunication in the wake of the Great Schism of 1054.

Clearly we cannot deny the divisions which continue to exist among us, the dis-ciples of Jesus: This sacred place makes us even more painfully aware of how tragic they are, said the pope, at the site of the tomb the ancient churches believe held the body of Jesus. We know that much distance still needs to be traveled before we attain that

fullness of communion which can also be expressed by sharing the same Eucharistic table, something we ardently desire. ...

We need to believe that, just as the stone before the tomb was cast aside, so too every obstacle to our full communion will also be removed.

Patriarch Bartholomew stressed that, even as barriers fall between Christians in the East and West, its crucial to remember that violent conflicts -- including threats to religious free-dom -- shape the lives of millions of believers.

This means shedding another modern fear, he said, the fear of the other, fear of the dif-ferent, fear of the adherent of another faith, another religion, or another confession. ... Religious fanaticism already threatens peace in many regions of the globe, where the very gift of life is sacrificed on the altar of reli-gious hatred. In the face of such conditions, the message of the life-giving Tomb is urgent and clear: Love the other, the different other, the followers of other faiths and other confes-sions.

The rite surrounding these sermons was full of symbolic touches, beginning with Bartholomew entering the basilica -- shared by six different Christian bodies -- from the east and Francis from the west. The Gospel was chanted in both Latin and Greek. Bartholomew entered the tomb ahead of the

pope, but Francis led the way to the site where church tradition indicates Jesus was crucified.

When Bartholomew finished his remarks, Francis took his hand and kissed it -- an act that in these ancient churches shows respect for a mans priesthood, since he holds the consecrated bread and wine during the Holy Eucharist. This was a striking gesture because in 1437, Patriarch Joseph II had been forced, as a sign of subservience, to kiss the feet of Pope Eugene IV.

Every time we put behind us our long-standing prejudices and find the courage to build new fraternal relationships, we confess that Christ is truly risen, said Francis.

Here I reiterate the hope already expressed by my predecessors for a continued dialogue ... aimed at finding a means of exercising the specific ministry of the Bishop of Rome which, in fidelity to his mission, can be open to a new situation and can be, in the present context, a service of love and of communion acknowledged by all.

Pain Doctor Discovers Blood Flow-Busting Material Into Miracle Socksfor Diabetics and Foot Pain Sufferers!Breakthrough circulation-boosting fibers improve blood flow, relieve swelling,

boost oxygen flow, and eliminate foot fatigue - naturally in as little as 5 minutes!

Being Diabetic, I never had pain-free feet - UNTILNOW!paid advertisement

What part of your swollen, tired,or achy feet would you like to seego-away?

If you suffer from poor circula-tion, injury, swelling or any condi-tion that leaves your feet fatiguedand sore, then read on to discoverthe breakthrough that can changeyour life.

Good news comes in the form ofa pain-busting microfiber that isused to weave a circulation-boost-ing sock, called BambusaTM.

Better Blood FlowThe miracle sock is made from

a new, patented anion-technologythat is weaved into every strand ofthread used to make a BambusaTM

sock. This special micro-fiberthread is made from revolutionarybamboo charcoal to stimulateblood flow andrevitalize feet.When this material comes in con-tact with body-heat it is proven torelease circulation-boosting ions.

The 3D-weave technology usedin the material has been comparedto infrared light therapy to help re-vitalize stiff and sore muscles. Themanufacturer, who also makes aback and wrist sleeve, says the ma-terial provides almost instant reliefto any part of the body it touches,making it ideal for diabetics, ath-letes,inflammation, stiffness andswelling.

Anne M. from California agrees.Bambusa socks are absolutely themost comfortable socks I have everworn! My feet are no longer fa-tigued!

TherapyWithout A Prescription!When the socks were pho-

tographed using a thermographicimaging camera, results showed upto a 17% to 22% increase in bloodflow. This helped to improvemus-cle oxygenation and decrease footfatigue. The socks have been provento provide extended relief fromcold, swollen and fatigued feet.

DoctorRecommended

Pain specialistof 30 years, Dr.Jahner commentson the 3D-weavetechnology. In-frared therapy hasbeen used foryears at medical

clinics to treat vascular and circula-tory conditions. Physical therapistsuse infrared therapy to speed re-covery. Better blood flow equalsless pain. This microfiber worksmuch the same way.

"Circulatory dysfunction affectsMOST of the adult population inthe United States. Heart Disease,Strokes and Diabetic conditions areat epidemic levels; anything thatimproves circulation improves cel-lular health and vitality. I use theBambusa product myself and rec-ommend it to my clients. It reallyworks! states Dr Jahner.

Results in Minutes?John G. of California claims he

felt immediate results with histired, swollen feet. Without exag-geration the relief was almost in-stantaneous. It is like a heating padset to low and wrapped around mycalf. I will be replacing my entireset of dress socks with thesesocks!

Relief for Tired, Swollen FeetBambusaTM socks are not a med-

ical device or compression socksbecause they dont restrict bloodflow. Utilizing the special negative-anion technology, they comfortablyincrease blood flow and oxygen totissues. My feet felt wonderful,cool, and I never got that pins andneedles feeling anymore. I love myBambusaTM socks, says Nancy,from NJ.

They are ideal for diabetics andthose suffering from neuropathy orinjury from repetitive use. Bam-busaTM socks can also bring com-fort to tired legs within minutes ofputting them on, energizing indi-viduals who spend long hours ontheir feet.

Goodbye to Pain and NumbnessMarilyn H. has suffered persist-

ent foot problems for years and no-ticed fast results. The issue for mewas persistent numbness in mytoes - it was gone completely aftera few days of wearing these socks!Being diabetic, I never had pain-free feet - UNTILNOW!

I went out on the golf coursefor 18 holes of golf, and when I gothome my feet werent swollen,they werent sweating and my feetdidnt hurt, says Lou B. from NewYork.

I hit a deer last week while I was driving home on the freeway. There were two deer in the road: one saw me and continued to run towards the median, the other started to follow then suddenly reversed direction and headed back towards the side of the road and what it perceived as safety. That is the deer I hit.

I wonder about those deer. I presume they were headed towards what they thought must be a delicious feeding ground that was well worth risking their lives for. The irony that the food is the same on both sides of the road will likely not be noticed by the deer.

It is the opportunity that draws them, not the reality. I think of this because this is the time of year that many of our kids are gradu-ating from school and making their next steps towards college and adulthood. Their choices must seem similar to the choices that the deer have. They can stay close to the safety and security of home or they can venture towards new towns and cities for new opportunities and experiences.

For some kids this move will be effort-less. They will just take off for new pastures without drama, set up their new life and move forward easily. Other kids will try to move to new pastures many times, hesitate and return, sometimes once, sometimes several times before finally transitioning to their new life.

Allowing our kids, and in some cases pushing our kids, to move towards this transi-tion can be scary and difficult. We are used to providing our children with a nice safe home, so the idea of watching them go towards some place that is not as safe goes against all of our parental instincts. It is also a step we have to take, and take with confidence. They have to know that we think that they will succeed.

You have already taught them everything they need to succeed, they just have to remem-ber the rules that they have been taught since they were little. For instance, look both ways before you cross the street can transition to mean that you dont rush into a situation until you are aware of the risks associated with it and decide the best way to proceed safely.

Dont trust strangers with candy also means that they should understand that every-one is not looking out for their best interest. Many people will try to lure them into a situ-ation that they know in their hearts isnt safe but they want to be part of the crowd. They should know that the crowd isnt always right. In fact, the crowd is usually the place where most trouble starts.

And, of course, treat others the way you want them to treat you. If they remember this rule, it can prevent a number of problems as well as help them find the friends that they can count on to help them out of a bad situa-tion when they get into one.

The most important thing that they should remember is that their family is still there for them no matter how old they get or how far away they are. They are stepping forward into a new world for them, but it doesnt mean that they have to leave their old world behind.

Auto Racing Glance

State Track and Field beckons for Tri-County athletes

By JIM METCALFEDHI Media Staff Writer

[email protected]

The Tri-County area will be well-rep-resented starting this morning and after-noon, as well as Saturday morning, in the Ohio High School Athletic Association State Track and Field Championships at venerable Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium.

Most of them are in the Division III ranks.

St. Johns has one junior Tyler Conley in the boys 800-meter dash in Saturdays finals.

Conley has a family his-tory in the State meet: his dad, Steve, was runner-up in what was then the half-mile (1973) and also qualified in the 4x4 relay.

His time then is better than mine right now but he was a senior then and I have a year left. I dont feel any pressure to live up to what he did, the younger Conley asserted. I really dont get ner-vous anyway; I just try to go out and run as fast and hard as I can.

Even though I run Saturday, we came down early. I wanted to get a prac-tice run at the stadium before the race. Im just going to relax and watch the other races.

This week of preparation had all the elements that hampered the track and field athletes all during March, April and early May: wind Monday, rain Tuesday and then nice weather Wednesday and Thursday.

Since I run in the morning Saturday, the coaches had me come in and train during the mornings this week to get me used to it, so I missed most of the bad weather earlier this week. However, I am not a morning person, Conley added. The first couple of days, we trained decently hard; Curtis (Pohlman) ran with me. The last two days, we really backed off so I could be as fresh as I could.

Ottoville has a foursome of girls going, all in the 4x400-meter relay and half of them in individual events.

Two of them are seniors: Taylor Mangas (300-meter hurdles) and exchange student Karin Wendeberg; and the other two are freshmen: Brooke Mangas (high jump) and Madison Knodell.

Weve tried to treat this like any other week and any other track meet.

Weve kept it pretty low-key and arent getting too excited, Lady Green head coach Vaughn Horstman explained. We brought the whole girls team down the night before so the girls dont feel rushed getting ready in the morning; they can relax and be well-rested and dont have to worry about the long ride there.

As for the week itself, Horstman noted how it was more about technique and staying fresh.

Were at that point in the season when the girls have what they have in the tank. They physically know what they have to do; were just topping it off, he added. Its more technique, shortening the distances and just keep-ing them fine-tuned and sharp rather than working them hard and them not having anything left for the race. Weve talked to them some about what to expect and stuff but weve basically kept it low-key.

It helps that you have four girls par-ticipating, rather than only one or two. Its nice to have a group.

Lincolnview has a trio: junior Bayley Tow (boys 1,600-meter run), junior Hannah McCleery (girls high jump) and sopho-more Hunter Blankemeyer in the 110-meter high (39-inch) hurdles.

Spencerville has one boy and one girl, both juniors: Trevor McMichael (boys long jump)

and Shania Johnson (girls discus).Columbus Grove has 11 members

combined from its track and field units heading to Owens.

For the Lady Bulldogs, they are led by senior Megan Verhoff (discus), junior Sydney McCluer (100-meter hurdles) and sophomore Lynea Diller (shot put), along with three relays: the 4x100-meters (McCluer, senior Julia Wynn and sophomores Raiya Flores and Linnea Stephens), the 4x2 (Flores, Stephens, Wynn and junior Kristin Wynn) and 4x4 (K. Wynn, McCluer, Flores and J. Wynn).

For the Bulldog boys, there is a quar-tet: the 4x800-meter relay of senior Lee Altenburger, juniors Colton Grothaus and Bryce Sharrits and sophomore Alex Giesege, with Sharrits also in the 800-meter run.

The Crestview boys have a solo per-former junior Mycah Grandstaff in the 3,200-meter run and two relays:

the 4x1 of juniors Malcolm Oliver and Zack Jellison and sophomores Sage Schaffner and Isaiah Kline and the 4x4 of Jellison, Kline, senior Michael Hansard and junior Alex Cunningham.

In Division II, Elida has a single girl: sophomore Tori Bowen in the pole vault; and the boys 4x1 of senior anchor Avery

Sumpter and juniors Desmend White, Clark Etzler and Corbin Stratton.

Van Werts Lady Cougars have a duo: juniors Whitney Meyers (300-meter hurdles) and Alexis Dowdy (shot put).

The Van Wert boys is led by a dual-qualifer: junior Nicholas Krugh (200-meter dash) that is also the second leg of the 4x4, along with juniors Quincy Salcido and Hunter Perl and sophomore Tymon Moore.

Ottawa-Glandorfs girls unit has three individuals: double-qualifier Madison Stechschulte (100- and 200-meter dashes), Anna Bellman (discus) and Elissa Ellerbrock (800-meter run). Stechschulte and Ellerbrock also quali-fied in two relays: the 4x2 (Megan Siefker and Michelle Maag); and the 4x4 (Maag and Bellman).

The Titan boys have six: the 4x800-meter relay (Brad Recker, Sid Moening, Trevor Ellerbrock and Matias Trampe-Kindt), Trampe-Kindt (1,600-meter run) and Colin Laubenthal (pole vault).

The Division II field events (boys long jump, boys shot put, boys pole vault, girls discus and girls high jump) commence at 9 a.m. today, while the Division III track events, com-menced by the 4x800-meter relay finals and followed by the sprints and relays, start at 9:30 a.m. The Division III field events will begin at noon (boys high jump, boys shot put, girls discus, girls long jump and girls pole vault). The other five (boys discus, boys long jump, boys pole vault, girls high jump and girls shot put) start at 3 p.m.

The Division II track races, including the 4x8 finals and the sprint and sprint relay prelims, start at 1:30 p.m., with Division I starting later that afternoon.

Saturdays other Division II field events (boys discus, boys high jump, girls long jump, girls shot put and girls pole vault) start at 9 a.m., with the track finals all sprints, sprint relays and middle distance/distance finals begin at 9:30 a.m. The Division II track finals start at 1 p.m.

Rams steal State baseball semi vs. Knights

By BRIAN BASSETTDHI Media [email protected]

COLUMBUS The Crestview Knight baseball team had its chance at a state title stolen away by the Defiance Tinora Rams Thursday morning at Huntington Park in Columbus - literally.

The Rams stole home twice en route to a 4-3 win over the Knights in the Division IV state semifinal matchup, including the game-tying and -winning runs.

It takes an effort like that, with two stolen bases at home, to beat a kid whos as good as Damian (Helm) and a team thats as good as this group of kids, said Crestview coach Jim Wharton after the tough loss.

Down one in the hime sixth, Tinora tied the game at three when senior shortstop Derek Drewes stole home while Knight pitcher Helm was in his windup.

The Rams got the chance to walk away with the win in the home seventh and 9-hitter and senior left fielder Logan Dickerson ripped a leadoff double to open the frame. A sacri-fice bunt moved Dickerson to third, before the Crestview ace induced senior center fielder Reid Renollet to pop out to the catcher for the second out of the inning.

With the winning run at third the 3 and 4 hitters coming to the plate, Wharton made the easy decision to walk senior pitcher Clay Pittman and Drewes to load the bases.

Its hard to ever prepare, especially (for a situation) like that, explained Wharton. We had a situation where they had three all-state kids (in their lineup). Were going to walk those two and put the ball in Damians hands.

With Dickerson still at third, Helm worked from the windup as sophomore second baseman Brevin Renollet came to the plate. Dickerson broke for home on the second pitch of the at bat, at the Knights got a pretty good read on the steal.

Helm delivered a strike to junior catcher Nate Owens but after a collision at the plate, the
