Indian Hill students areshowing how algebra can putcrayons in the hands of areachildren.
High school students in theMath Service Club workedwith Crayons to Computers tohelp solve a supply and de-mand dilemma.
The organization, which is anonprofit free store for Great-er Cincinnati area teachers,was trying to come up with away to insure that the teachersgot the supplies they needed.In some instances suppliesmay run out because of de-mand, and Crayons to Comput-ers was looking for a solution tothe problem.
The Math Service Clubstepped up to the plate with a
solution, one that involved cre-ating an algebraic equation.
Sophomore Sydney Milessaid supplies ranging fromcrayons and pencils to rulersand notebooks, had previouslybeen provided to teachers in an“arbitrary” fashion.
“Our goal was to create alimit so that the items would bedistributed equally (among theteachers),” sophomore CalvinO’Brien, who along with Milesis a member of the Math Ser-vice Club, said.
The equation the students inthe club developed takes intoconsideration a number of fac-tors including the number ofitems and the number of teach-ers who need them.
“They were impressed withour findings,” said sophomoreMargot Brunette, who is also amember of the club.
In fact, Miles said the or-ganization told them theirwork was on par with what a
professional consultant mayhave provided.
This isn’t the first time the
Math Service Club has provid-ed assistance. Last year theclub worked with the Madeiraand Indian Hill Joint Fire Dis-trict on developing an equationto help make their runs moreefficient.
The club typically meetsabout once a week when in-volved with a particular pro-ject. Since the projects typical-ly are associated with sometype of community service, thestudents in the club receivecredit hours for their work.
“A lot of time, math is an ab-stract concept,” Miles said.“Being able to see directly theimpact of our work was veryspecial.”
O’Brien agreed. “It provesthe math you learn can be usedin real world scenarios to helpothers.”

Indian Hill High School sophomores Calvin O'Brien, Sydney Miles andMargot Brunette are involved with the school's Math Service Club. The clubrecently worked on a project to help Crayons to Computers.
Madeira firefighters willtake up temporary quarters inthe Indian Hill firehouse earlyin June so workers can demol-ish the Madeira station to makeway for a new one.
A new firehouse will be builtin Indian Hill after constructionof the new Madeira firehouse,which is expected to take be-tween 10 months and a year, saidStephen Ashbrock, fire chief ofthe Madeira & Indian Hill JointFire District.
“Conditions will be closer forthe crews during this periodand ambulances and fire en-gines will fill the bay space,”Ashbrock said.
“Utility and staff vehicleswill have to park outside for aperiod.”
Ashbrock said the Madeira &Indian Hill Joint Fire District isdoing all it can to ensure the de-livery of fire and emergencymedical services will not becompromised.
“Our construction does notchange our automatic-aid ar-rangements with our neighbor-ing fire departments, and all arecued in to our consolidated oper-ations in order to minimize im-pact on response time,” Ash-brock said.
“We are not reducing staff-
ing for this temporary consoli-dation.
“When construction on theIndian Hill Station begins in latespring or early summer 2016,the consolidated operations willshift to the new Madeira station
with the same effort to manageimpact,” Ashbrock said.
“By late spring 2017, the twonew stations will be fully in op-eration with equipment andstaffing appropriately distrib-uted and the joint fire district
will have established two newbases of operation for many,many years into the future.”
Madeira and Indian Hill haveIndian Hill residents Haroldand Margret Thomas to thankfor that.
The couple donated money tobuild the two firehouse lastyear, not long before MargretThomas died.
Architects have estimated itwill cost a total of up to $7.5 mil-lion to rebuild both firehouses.
That includes up to $4 millionto rebuild the Indian Hill fire-house at 6475 Drake Road,which was built in 1940, and upto $3.5 million to rebuild the Ma-deira firehouse at 7205 MiamiAve., which was built in 1890and converted from a house to afirehouse in 1962.
For now, Indian Hill villageofficials are working on the de-sign of their firehouse.
“In the coming weeks, wewill have the latest drawings ofthe Madeira station,” IndianHill City Manager Dina Minnecisaid.
“At this time we are still inpure conceptual mode.
“No decisions have beenmade – council and the archi-tects (are) simply throwingideas back and forth so floorplans and designs (can) begin tobe finalized,” Minneci said.

Indian Hill schoolsmust be hitting the rightnote. The district has beenrecognized as one of theBest Communities forMusic Education.
This designation was
recently awarded to thedistrict by the NationalAssociation for MusicEducation.
Indian Hill was among388 districts nationwideto receive this recognitionand among 25 in Ohio. TheForest Hills Local SchoolDistrict was also among
Tristate schools to receivethis designation.
“What (this) does isgive us official verifica-tion of what we haveknown for a long time,”said Chris Rotsching, In-dian Hill Middle Schoolband director. “The peo-ple (here) understand theimportance of the per-forming arts and the posi-tive impact it has in thelives of children.”
According to Rotsch-ing, this designation is away to recognize a com-munity’s commitment tomusic education. It notonly takes into account adistrict’s music curricu-lum but also extracurricu-lar activities associatedwith music.
“It recognizes a musicdepartment that is willingto work together (and)maintain successful band,choral and orchestral pro-grams,” said DonaldBarker, director of bandsfor the high school, add-ing that this extends fromkindergarten to the 12th-grade.
Trista Emmons, or-chestra director for thedistrict, said being named
as a Best Community forMusic Education alsoraises local awareness ofquality music programs.“One of the hopes of the(association) is to spurschool districts and com-munities to financiallysupport these programs,”she said.
This recognition hasbeen offered for 16 years,
but this is the first year In-dian Hill schools has ap-plied for it.
Rotsching said theband, choir and orchestraprograms at Indian Hillhave thrived, which hesaid is a significant ac-complishment in “a dis-trict this size.”
“We have a large num-ber of students who grad-
uate from here and majorin music or become pro-fessional musicians ormusic teachers,” he said.“All of that is a result ofthe strong support we getfrom administrators, par-ents and the community.”

The Madeira PoliceDepartment is asking forthe public’s help to pro-tect neighborhoods aftera string of daytime bur-glaries.
“We would like to havepeople look out and callus. The biggest thing Ihear all the time is, ‘Ididn’t want to bother you.’You are not bothering us.Please call us so we cancheck these things out,”Police Chief Frank Mau-pin said.
There have been threedaytime burglaries in Ma-deira recently,, he said.
The first burglary was
of a home on Juler Avenuebetween 7:50 a.m. and 6p.m. on March 15. A rearwindow of the residencewas broken and electron-ic items were taken.
By April 23, the Madei-ra Police Department re-ported on its Facebookpage that two more bur-glaries had occurred. Onewas on Juler Avenue andthe other was on JethveLane.
In both, windows wereused to gain entry, anditems such as jewelry andfirearms were taken.
For the second bur-glary on Juler Avenue,Madeira police said on itsFacebook page that ablack male in his 20s was
seen entering the backyard of the residence atabout noon.
Maupin encouragedpeople to ensure theirwindows are locked.
“Help us get the wordout. Talk to your neigh-bors and see if they arefollowing the police de-partment’s Facebookpage and receiving emailsfrom the city. Encouragethem to keep an eye out.With all of us working to-gether we will hopefullybe able to put an end tothese burglaries in thevery near future,” Lt.Chris Zumbiel said in anemail.
The police departmentis encouraging residents
who are looking to starttheir own neighborhoodwatch group to contactZumbiel at 272-4214 orczumbiel@madeiracity.com
City Councilman Ken-neth Born commendedthe police department forreaching out to citizens.
“Most of the guys havebeen trained throughcrime prevention to makerecommendations on howyou can better secureyour house. Stuff like nothaving tall bushes or any-thing that makes it easyfor someone to get into awindow without beingseen. We are more thanhappy to do that,” Maupinsaid.

The Madeira Police Department is asking residents look outfor suspicious people in their neighbors as a result ofdaytime burglaries, two of which happens on Juler Avenue.
Dick Weiland of HydePark set a goal to raise$500,000 for a fund thatwill be allocated for awide range of non-profitcauses relating to his pas-sion for promoting inclu-sion and community col-laboration to address is-sues facing the GreaterCincinnati area.
A percentage of thisfund will also be allocatedto support the efforts ofaward recipients of TheJewish Community Rela-tions Council’s inauguralDick Weiland CommunityRelations Award.
These individuals willbe recognized for theirwork to create a bettercommunity. This year’srecipients will be an-
nounced at the JCRC’s an-nual meeting June 8 at theMayerson JCC.
Weiland works closelywith about 40 non-profits,with the Talbert House atthe top of the list.
During his many dec-ades of advocacy, he hasbeen recognized for se-curing Holocaust repara-tions for survivorsthroughout the world, andhas been credited forkeeping the HebrewUnion College from leav-ing the Greater Cincinnatiarea, an achievement herefers to as “one of themost important thingsI’ve ever done.”
He marched for votingrights for African Ameri-cans (led by the Rev. Dr.Martin Luther King Jr.from Selma to Montgome-ry, Ala., in 1965) andfounded the Halom Housein 1982 to provide servicesfor adults with develop-mental disabilities.

I’m pretty sure you won’t see a photo like the mo-rels pictured here just anywhere.
What a bounty! Of course, I can’t tellyou where we forage for them, but takemy word for it: they were huge and agourmet treat.
Morels are going for about $60 apound right now. Jean Robert de Cavelhas them on his menu, and other chefslucky enough to have a source are do-ing the same thing. But it’s fun to knowthat a country girl and her friends canenjoy the whole process, from foragingto eating.
Here’s my simple recipe with op-tions for using other mushrooms. Mushrooms containantioxidants and vitamin D, which lots of folks havein short supply.
Readers want to knowWhat is an easy way to chop mint and basil without
making it turn dark?The reason herbs turn dark after chopping is that
they oxidize - the cut parts exposed to air turn dark asthey sit. To quickly chop a lot of mint or basil, stackseveral leaves and roll them up tight long ways, like acigar. Then slice width-wise into narrow pieces tomake long thin strips, also called julienne slices. Chopthe strips again for smaller slices, or leave them as isand you’ll get pretty ribbons of herbs.

Rita has a secret morel patch, whip up lasagna for 2Sautéed gourmet mushrooms
Delicious as a side, or an appetizer on good qualitytoast. Try them as a topping for grilled steak. If you arelucky enough to have morels, let them soak about 10minutes in water with a bit of salt added. This makes allthe little creatures that might be in the mushrooms leavetheir happy abode.
Then drain, rinse and drain again. Dry thoroughlyand cut into halves or quarters. If you are using the mixedwild mushroom blends, slice as necessary.
Now this is a go to taste recipe. Use a large skillet sothat mushrooms cook quickly without steaming. I tossed insome watercress from our spring-fed pool right at the end.
Jean Robert adds a splash of liqueur. I sometimes adda splash of brandy while the mushrooms are cooking.
8 oz. mushrooms1/4 cup butter or bit more if needed - I usually add
more1 small shallot, minced1 teaspoon garlic, mincedSalt and pepper to tasteHeavy whipping cream, unwhipped (optional)Parsley chopped (optional)
Heat butter and add shallots and garlic together.Cook over low heat until shallots are tender but notbrown. Add everything but cream and cook over mediumheat until mushrooms are tender. Add cream to taste andlet it cook a bit until desired consistency is reached.
Lasagna for twoCorey, an East Side reader, needs recipes for two.
So if you have some to share, please do. “We’re newlymarried and both busy with careers. I like to cook butdon’t want to have to eat leftovers for a week”, shesaid.
1 cup ricotta cheese1/2 cup Parmesan cheese1 large egg2 generous cups pasta sauce with meat4 no-cook lasagna noodles1-1/3 cups mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 400. Mix cheeses and egg. Setaside. Spread 1/3 cup sauce in bottom of sprayed loaf/bread pan. Top with one noodle. Spread another 1/3cup sauce to edges. Top with 1/3 cup cheese mixtureand 1/3 cup mozzarella. Repeat layers twice, toppingwith remaining noodle and sauce. Bake, covered, 25minutes. Uncover and sprinkle on rest of mozzarella.Bake 10 more minutes and let stand 10 minutes beforeserving.

I am trying to help you, sothink about what you are goingto read.
You are employed and yourvalue is the creation of profitsfor your employer. If he makesa profit on your services, yourfuture is secure. If you showthat you can create more val-ue, raises and promotions arein your future.
This is no different than asmall business. Like a busi-ness, when you create moresales volume over your costs,you are successful. The maindifference is that in a businessyou most likely have morecontrol.
The point we want to dis-cuss is that as an employeethere are costs taken from
your wagesthat interferewith your abil-ity to makemore money.These takestrict examina-tion so thatsimply beingaware of them,you may beable to gainsome control.
They are taxes on your wagescreated by regulations andlegislated work rules that maylimit your production.
Your employer pays them,but they limit your value. Theyare the result of political pay-ments to inefficient govern-ment systems and unions that
support politicians who em-power them. If these peoplewere so good for you, why aremany higher paying jobs mov-ing to Right to Work states oroverseas?
When I started work in themid 1950s our union was apositive factor. They promotedsales to other union organiza-tions. Over the years they be-came a serious detriment toproduction and profits. As wesee union membership shrink-ing it would be important forthem to again become allies tobusiness. This would supporttheir membership and theentire workforce would bene-fit. Businesses have a hardenough time competing withimports.
A positive boost to Amer-ican based business wouldincrease jobs and wages.
Another help to our workingfolks would be to carefullyexamine all laws and regula-tions that are expensive tobusiness with little or no bene-fit. I did not need to be toldwho to hire, my workers wereintegrated long before it be-came law. This caused myemployees to expect promotionbased on production ratherthan racial or sexual quotas.
Think of yourself as a com-petitor, not against your fellowemployees, but as an inspira-tion that causes others to helpyour employer succeed. Thespirit of trying to be the bestincreases your value. This is
no different than the smallbusiness in your area that issucceeding because they try tosatisfy you.
It is also possible that youmay be asked to become apartner due to your work hab-its and attitude.
Some of my labor becamemanagers because of theirefforts and learned skills.Some had been hired becausethey showed a desire to provetheir worth.
If you do not reach the levelyou feel is earned, the experi-ences you gained will help yourun a successful business ofyour own. Best of luck and donot give up easily.

May 7 questionHow do you think the Supreme Court
will rule on the issue of same-sex mar-riage? How should they rule?
“Against.”Mary Ann Maloney
“I hope they rule in favor of it. Itreally is the final movement towardscivil rights for all. With the court splitin terms of right and left it will comedown basically to Justice Kennedy’svote and hopefully he will chose to beon the right side of history.
“People can use the Biblical passag-es as their defense for heterosexualunion, however in one of the oft-citedpassages, one should not not work onSundays, wear clothes of mixed threador eat shell fish. From that stand pointRed Lobsters should be picketed daily,yet I don’t see it.
“Gay marriage will in no way dimin-ish heterosexual marriage. I don’t un-derstand that argument. I feel thatreligious institutions can still come outagainst it, but to do so will only pointout how bigoted the institutions are.
“In terms of religion, I look towardsthe new covenant teachings of Christand he had nothing to say on gay mar-riage. He did have something to sayabout the difficulty of the rich gettinginto heaven comparing it to being moredifficult than a camel passing throughthe eye of a needle. I don’t see peoplepicketing mansions or standing next toluxury autos over in Kenwood tellingpeople to repent or they won’t get intoheaven.
“It is time to gay marriage is accept-ed and religious institutions either ac-cept it also or admit that they are selec-tive in terms of what they choose to
criticize or focus on Biblicly.”C.S.
“I believe they will rule against it, asthey should in respect for the thou-sands of years of societal norms, rath-er than trying to prove they have a‘better idea.’ The legal ramificationsof allowing this new legal status openstoo many possibilities for long estab-lished taboos on animal affection, pe-dophilia, close relative unions and theobvious concerns over widespreadabuse of the tax system and destruc-tion of health care systems.”
D.B.
“I believe the Supreme Court willrecognize marriage as the union of twopeople who love, honor, support andrespect each other. Such faithful part-nerships benefit all cultures and soci-eties contributing to harmony andworld peace.”
Marie Hill
“I feel that the Supreme Court willapprove same sex marriage. Why?,because it is going to be pushed andpushed down our throats until we haveevery state accepting it. That does notmake it right. And I am totally against
it b/c one of the reasons man and wom-an get married is to have a familyeventually. Children need a mom whois female and a dad who is male, peri-od. Not two men who say they aremom and dad or two women who saythey are mom and dad.
“And I do not think that people areborn gay. It is a choice they make. Thesame holds true with transgenders.Why can’t we be happy with the gen-der that our Lord made us to be. Kidsare being subjected to this kind ofthinking that there is something wrongwith them so they want to be gay ortransgender. Heaven help us and I feelso sorry for my grandchildren in theirfuture to live in a culture where any-thing goes with no restrictions or laws.So therefore, I am totally against the
Supreme Court ruling in favor of samesex marriage.”
D.M.H.
“In 2013 the U.S. Supreme Courtruled that married same-sex coupleswere entitled to federal benefits and,by declining to decide a case fromCalifornia, effectively allowed same-sex marriages there. I suspect theywill again rule ‘in favor’ of same sexmarriage across all 50 states.
“The United States was founded onthe separation of church and state.While there may be religious teach-ings against this practice the courtwill look at the U.S. Constitution notthe Bible. Go Figure!”

Gay marriage supporters sing “God Bless America”in front of the United States Supreme Court.
Ankle sprains are one of themost common injuries I see asa physician of sports medicine
at CincinnatiChildren’s.
It’s estimat-ed 2 millionankle sprainsoccur acrossthe countryevery year.Almost halftaking placeduring sportsrelated activ-ity. Anklesprains com-
monly happen in sports thatrequire cutting and jumpingsuch as basketball, soccer,football and volleyball.
A common misconceptionamong parents is that an ankle
sprain is a “mild injury thatwill heal on its own.” However,ankle sprains can lead tochronic pain and instability ofthe ankle if not properly treat-ed. The group that is at great-est risk range in age from 10-19years old.
A sprain is a stretching ortearing injury that is specificto ligaments (bone to boneconnections in the body). Mostankle sprains cause an injuryto the outside portion of theankle. However, an injury tothe inside of the ankle canindicate a far more worrisomeinjury.
If you think your child hasan ankle sprain, it’s alwaysbest to have an examination bya physician who has special-ized training in evaluation of
ankle sprains. Some of the signs include:» inability or difficulty bear-
ing weight on the affectedankle;
» significant swelling orbruising anywhere on the an-kle, leg or foot;
» pain over the inside of theankle or over the foot;
» deformity of the ankle orfoot.
If any of the above signs orsymptoms is present, it is ad-vised that your child be evalu-ated as soon as possible. Liga-ments may not heal properly ifrest and or bracing are notperformed. Ankle braces haveprogressed greatly over thepast 20 years. Today’s anklebraces are for easier to put on,are comprised of more ad-
vanced materials, and aremore comfortable to wear.
At Cincinnati Children’s, ourpediatric sports medicine ex-perts recognize the importanceof early evaluation of musculo-skeletal injuries. Our clinicsare equipped with Xray capa-bilities, splints, crutches, andbracing for all levels of anklesprains. Same day appoint-ments can be made by calling513-803-HURT. If your child’sinjury is after hours or on theweekend and your child isunable to bear weight or adeformity is present, an evalu-ation in an urgent care oremergency department wouldbe recommended.
Depending on the degree ofthe ankle sprain, healing timesmay vary. If the ankle sprain is
minor, recovery can take placewithin two to three weeks.With more severe anklesprains, the healing time cantake six to eight weeks for afull recovery.
It’s important to have theankle checked out as soon aspossible especially if there isany ongoing pain. At CincinnatiChildren’s, the sports medicineteam is committed to havingyour child return to his or herusual activities once the ankleis healed and strength is re-stored.
Dr. Gregory Walker is an assistantprofessor in Division of Sports Medi-cine at Cincinnati Children’s and anassociate professor in Department ofPediatrics at the University of Cin-cinnati.

Dunn joins 500-win club
THANKS TO CHRIS MILMOE
Cincinnati Country Day coach Tim Dunn’s baseball team won the 500th game of his coaching career May 9 against Seven Hills, 9-2.
INDIAN HILL — While theydidn’t win the Cincinnati HillsLeague, the Indian Hill HighSchool baseball team improvedtheir win total under first-yearcoach Scott Lloyd, sparking op-timism for springs to come.
Thanks to their new facilityfeaturing artificial turfinfields, the Braves were ableto get outdoors when mostteams were fielding groundersin the gym in March. The earlyaccess helped propel them to a6-0 start in the CHL by the thirdweek of April.
Since then, there’s been aleveling off thanks to leaguestalwarts Wyoming, Madeiraand Reading appearing on theschedule. Still, the wins and thenew digs off Drake Road havecaught the attention of many.
“The best part is we’re
young,” Lloyd said. “You cankind of see the talent growing.This year’s been a great yearand we’re very excited aboutthe future.”
The numbers don’t lie. Ayouth infusion also helped In-dian Hill extend its basketballseason and the football teamposted a winning record.
“I attended several of thebasketball games and that wasthe recurring thing,” Lloydsaid. “There’s a lot of great,young talent. Because of howgreat the school is from an aca-demic standpoint, we’re keep-ing a lot of these kids here. Inyears past, we’ve lost some toMoeller or St. X. A lot of kidsare staying here and it’s doingwonders for everything.”
Sophomores Keith Ham-mond and Chandler Harris andfreshman A.J. King have beenLloyd’s top hitters. At onepoint, the trio were all over
.400.Seniors Brooks Renfro and
Michael Folz start along withjunior Nick Heidel. The re-mainder of the lineup are allunderclassmen.
“I rely on my four seniorsand two juniors to help them,”Lloyd said. “There’s timeswe’ve looked great like wecould make a run in the tourna-ment. Then, there’s times weplay like a young team.”
Sophomore Greg Nevins hasfaced many of the top teams onthe artificial bump along withseniors Renfro and Folz, juniorTanner Helms and freshmanKing. Freshman Seth Braffordand senior Josh Burgher havelogged significant innings.
The Braves have played alot of close games and the hopeis for younger players to grav-itate to the new complex to see

the turf, the dugouts and thesurrounding batting cages.
If anything, the complexmade Lloyd’s cell number a hotcommodity during this season’schilly, wet start.
“There was a time when I got18 phone calls in three days,”the Braves skipper said chuck-ling. “They would say, ‘Heycoach, do you want to play?We’ll use your field.’ Everyonewants to get out here. We wereplaying weeks before anyonecould get on a field. It’s a beauti-ful asset to have.”
Indian Hill opens up tourna-ment play May 12 againstHughes. A win over the Big Redputs them against CHL rivalTaylor. The Braves defeated theYellow jackets twice in April byone run.

SYMMES TWP. — After last year’s 6-9finish, it was easy to write off Cincin-nati Hills Christian Academy’s softballteam as an underdog entering this sea-son.
But don’t tell that to coach LeahCrouch and her squad. They knew theyhad the ability to do what they’ve donethis season.
“We saw it playing out like this,”Crouch said. “We lost two in a row (tostart the season) and that was a gutcheck. They came back from that, andthe season just went on from there.”
From April 15 to May 2, a span of 11games, the Eagles didn’t lose. With the
16-11 win against Cincinnati ChristianMay 7, CHCA completed its Miami Val-ley Conference slate 12-0.
During the 11-game winning streak,CHCA outscored its opponents 141-10.On the season, Cassidy Yeomans, Mori-ah Tome, Mady Shank, Camryn Olsonand Kennedy Bontrager are all batting.485 or better.
“The keys have been a consistent of-fense, an amazing defense and we havea pitcher who’s thrown two no-hittersand a perfect game,” Crouch said. “Ithink it’s an all-around solid team.”
That pitcher is Olson, a freshman.There’s the aforementioned no-hittersand perfect game, but she was also sec-ond in the city in strikeouts as of May 9.
She’s also hit five home runs thisseason.
“It’s been a good start to my fresh-man year,” Olson said. “I’m also look-ing forward to the next three years.There are a couple players in the mid-dle school who are going to help usout.”
Olson, along with several of herteammates, is a virtual lock to makefirst-team all-MVC, which was one ofher goals this season.
She added it would be cool to be onone of the all-state teams as well.
The Eagles’ postseason begins witha bye. They will play the winner ofWaynesville and Deer Park.
“We have a good chance against ei-ther of them,” Crouch said. “We lost toWaynesville last year but they have adifferent team this year. Deer Parkwill be a good matchup as well.”

KENWOOD — At manyschools, returning 12 playerswho played with regularity on aDivision I state semifinalistwould mean added pressure.
For Moeller High School’sbaseball program, it’s just an-other day at the office.
Ranked preseason No. 11 na-tionally by Baseball Americathe Crusaders have not disap-pointed and are on pace to bet-ter last year’s mark of 24-5.They recently won the GreaterCatholic League-South.
The Crusaders have had theluxury of not missing manygames. In early April when rainspoiled the party for many Tris-tate teams, Moeller was at thePerfect Game complex in Geor-gia playing four games in fivedays.
“This is the seventh yearwe’ve traveled (over springbreak) and it’s always been goodfor us,” Moeller coach Tim Heldsaid. “The kids seem to gel bet-ter after being trapped on thebus eight or 10 hours.”
In terms of talent, it is a blueand gold mine off MontgomeryRoad. The Crusaders currentlyhave 13 players committed tocolleges, with 10 going DivisionI. Josh Hollander, Bryan Sothand Joe Vranesic are going toKent State, Grant Macchiochi toMissouri, Bailey Montoya toDayton, Kyle Dockus to WrightState, Jordan Ramey to Cincin-nati, Zach Hoffman to MiamiUniversity, Mitch Bault to OhioDominican, Eric Conner toWalsh and Adam Wilson to OhioNorthern. Junior pitchers NickBennett and Cameron Junkerare committed to Louisville andNotre Dame, respectively.
Held has made the statesemifinals in six of seven yearsand has toted home the state
championship trophy in 2009,2012 and 2013. When you can re-load with a battle-tested roster,success is an expectation.
“I thought we’d be good withNick Bennett on the mound andGrant Macciocchi,” Held said.“With the schedule we play, theguys that aren’t the top two
starters have to be pretty goodthemselves. The pitching we’vebeen getting has been verygood.”
Adding to the consistency ofBennett and Macciocchi on thebump has been senior MitchBault and juniors Chris Stockand Cameron Junker.
At the plate, Josh Hollander,Bailey Montoya, Bryan Soth,Kyle Butz, Kyle Dockus and JoeVranesic were all .300-plus hit-ters as juniors and have con-tinued to achieve. Soth just suf-fered a season-ending knee in-jury and Vranesic is coming offof a shoulder issue, but hoping
to reach a tournament groove.Dockus has led the team in
hitting and steals and has an on-base percentage of more than.500.
“We put him in left field lastyear and he gave us great at-bats every time,” Held said.“That’s continued with an extrayear of growth..”
The reality at Moeller isthere are 25 players on the ros-ter. The roster could be split inhalf and both teams would becontenders.
“They chose to come toMoeller High School and theymight have to wait ‘til the end oftheir junior year or their seasonyear to contribute on varsity,”Held said.
The six-time Greater Catho-lic League Coach of the Yearsaid most parents understandthe process and it brings aboutspirited workouts and non-con-ference games for players.
“They’re working their buttsoff trying to have great at-batsfor us,” Held says said of hissquad. “Competition is whatfeeds it here.”
