IT’S COLLECTION TIME

Miller

Some things are worth cele-brating.

So when Kaila Kullgrenwalks across the stage at North-west High School’s graduationceremony, her family intends tomake a scene. They have al-ready told officials at her schoolthey will do her community ser-vice if it’s assigned, the conse-quence of the “no demonstra-tions” rule at district gradua-tions.

She has special permissionfrom her doctor to cross thatstage without the assistance ofher walker, and she’s deter-mined to take that walk.

“She was bed-ridden for solong,” her mom Jamie Kullgren

said. “She wants to walk unas-sisted, and we are going to makea lot of noise when she does it.Just this once, we are breakingthe rules.” Her grandma, BettyKullgren, nods in agreement.

Kaila is recovering from ahip replacement surgery. Onthe first day of school, while herfellow classmates were kickingoff their senior year, she was inthe operating room. It was nec-essary, because she was diag-nosed with Ewing’s sarcoma, acancerous tumor that grows inthe bones or in the tissue aroundbones – often the legs, pelvis,ribs, arms or spine. Ewing’s sar-coma can spread to the lungs,bones and bone marrow. Doc-tors took half her pelvic boneand replaced her hip to get thetumor.

She was diagnosed in April ofher junior year. Physicians per-formed an MRI seeking thecause of recurrent pain follow-ing a car accident. After seeingthe results, they scheduled anemergency biopsy.

“I knew when the surgeoncalled me at 9 o’clock at nightthat it wasn’t going to be good,”her mom said.

Kaila remembers burstinginto tears at the news. Her momexuded calm.

Graduating senior LaurenPottinger may have things shewants to forget about heryears at Colerain High School,but she wants to rememberthe lessons she learned duringher time there.

Some were the kind youstudy for: English, algebra,anatomy. Some were the kindfor which you can never becompletely prepared.

Pottinger did well in the les-sons where study is required.She was accepted into severalnursing programs, and willbegin work on her bachelor’sdegree in the fall at the ChristCollege of Nursing and HealthSciences, her first choice.

She also weathered the oth-er lessons: What other peoplethink doesn’t matter. That ev-ery day with people you love isa gift to be appreciated. Thatshe’s stronger than shethought. That she can stand upfor herself. That she can with-stand big storms.

She says bullying drove herfrom her school in her junioryear, to the relative safety ofthe electronic classroom, do-ing her work at her White Oakhome. The incident that tippedher out of her nursing pro-gram at Butler Tech left herdepressed and feeling like shedidn’t belong.

“I don’t like to talk aboutwhat happened,” she said. “Itwas difficult, and I didn’t wantto go back.”

Staying home wasn’t easy,either. It was tough, and lone-ly, she said. She battled de-pression. She hated being atthe computer all day. It washard to concentrate. Hergrades suffered. Her dadwanted her back in traditionalschool.

The summer of her junioryear, her dad, Edgar, was diag-nosed with cancer and sheagreed to give Colerain anoth-er try.

“He wanted me to go back,and I wanted to make himproud,” she said.

It was hard. She was havingfun as she reengaged withhigh school classmates and ac-tivities, but her father wasgravely ill.

He died in February, theday before she received heracceptance letter to Christ.Despite her challenges, hergrades remained good.

“I missed time at school,but I knew I couldn’t get backthe time I was spending withhim. I knew I could do schoolover if I had to, but I wasn’t go-ing to get that chance with mydad.”

She says her final two yearsof high school gave her per-spectives she might not haveotherwise gained.

“You can’t just look atsomeone and know what theyare going through, what theyare carrying,” she said.

With her dad strugglingagainst cancer, she has a hardtime not being angry at peoplewho use drugs. “They are kill-ing themselves,” she said.“And he was fighting so hardto live.”

She also has no time fordrama.

“Life is so much biggerthan this petty high schoolstuff,” she said. “It was an eyeopener for me, and it changedmy outlook.”

She appreciates the helpshe received from others.Teachers like Laura Gunn,Claire Shannon and SusanRoebel. Her counselor, EvelynGibfried, who she said was

with the oncologist, and Icould ask whatever Iwanted, whatever ques-tions I had. I think I wasshell-shocked.”

Her aunt and uncle,Farrah and Ron Kullgren,were supportive. So wereher teachers at NorthwestHigh School. And mem-bers of her church,Springdale NazareneChurch, were offeringwhatever she needed.

“They did bake salesand fundraisers to helpwith the medical bills, andI had a lot of prayers,” shesaid.

Kaila’s faith has sus-tained her as she has bat-tled her cancer.

“Before one of mymany surgeries, I wasparticularly upset. Nannyheld my hand and told meto ask Jesus what kind ofweapon I needed to fightthe cancer. I did, and hetold me I didn’t need aweapon. He was going totake care of me. From thebeginning I believed I wasgoing to be OK, that I wasgoing to overcome.”

She’s in remission now,but she lost a lot duringthe fight. She cried at ju-

nior honors night, realiz-ing that her perfect atten-dance record was fallingto her cancer: She hadnever missed a day ofschool before her diagno-sis. Her standing in thetop 10 of her class fell, too.She shaved off her hair af-ter having her senior pic-tures taken because it wasfalling out.

While the cancer tookthose things away, thefight against it and the ex-perience also gave hersome good things andshe’s holding tight tothose lessons: Don’t takelife for granted.: Empathyand compassion. A differ-ent perspective, one thatsays don’t make a living,make a life. A less judge-mental attitude about theproblems of others.Heightened awareness ofher blessings. The knowl-edge that prayer has pow-er and that God has a planfor her. And gratitude forthings big and little.

While she still needs awalker to get around,she’s taking that in stride,even if the steps aresmaller and slower.

“I hear kids at schoolcomplain about having torun up to the second floorand I am thinking ‘I wouldbe give anything to be inyour situation.’ I am

thankful for small things,like being outside andfeeling the sunlight on myskin. There is so much tobe grateful for.”

Kaila says she askedlots of questions duringher cancer battle and feltshe learned a lot.

“I held my tumor in myhand. I wanted to see it,and to hold it and to touchit. I had a sense of closureand I think it was one ofthe best days of my life. Icalled it the Beast. It couldhave killed me, that tumorI was holding, but instead,we killed it. It was thephysical evidence of allmy hard work. I beat it.”

One of Kaila’s favoritequotes says “Scars onlyshow us where we havebeen. They don’t showwhere we are going.” Shesays she’s going forward.She’s in remission. She’sgetting ready to head offto Otterbein University inthe fall, where she willstudy to become a veteri-narian, with a specialty inhorses. She’s ready for achallenge.

And she’s really look-ing forward to a shortwalk across a stage thatwill end in receiving herdiploma.

“I can’t wait,” she said.

KullgrenContinued from Page 1A

empathetic to her experi-ences, as the counselorhad recently lost her momunexpectedly.

“I knew she under-stood what I was feeling.She was a big help. It waseasy to relate, I think,”

She misses her dad,and she’s sorry he didn’tlive to see her graduate.She’s trying to focus onthe future. She’s getting

ready for school in thefall. She plans to live athome with her mom, Jen-ny, and commute to class-es. She delivers twoNorthwest Press paperroutes and holds down twojobs: one at The Meadows,a reception hall in Addys-ton, the other at a Wal-green’s store in GreenTownship. She likes work-ing out at the gym, playingwith her dog Max and newpuppy Frazier and think-ing about how she can liveher life in a meaningfulway.

While at Colerain, shewrote a book about 10ways to cope, and a coun-selor at Colerain some-times gives copies of it toother students who arestruggling. And she hopesher nursing degree leadsher into a career whereshe can help others.

“I love the movie ‘PayIt Forward,’ and that’swhat I want to do,” shesaid. “I want to be morefocused on things likethat, what we can do tohelp others who might bestruggling.”

We are adopting a newtradition, an annual saluteto graduating high schoolseniors with a unique sto-ry to tell.

These are our Grade AGraduates. High schoolstudents for the past fouryears, their experiencescan now inspire and teachothers. Some are war-riors. Some are ground-breakers. Some have bigdreams they are deter-mined to make real. Allhave earned their diplo-mas, built their charac-ters and are ready for the

next chapter.

Winston Woodsgrad pulls through

Winton Woods gradu-ate Shawn Emerson is de-

termined. It’s what drove him

back to high school afterhe was expelled, and whatkept him on track as hebalanced school workwith a full-time job atUPS.

He has been part ofWinton Woods’ ProjectSuccess Program since2014, passing his OhioGraduation Test the firsttime, and participating inclass activities with a pos-itive attitude, preparedand ready to learn.

“Shawn's dedication tohis school work has beenan inspiration to me aswell as his classmates,”teacher Jeanne Rankinsaid of Emerson.

It’s that determinationthat drives his futureplans to relocate and pur-sue dancing and music.

“I’m looking for some-where I don’t have towatch my back, and bepositively influenced,”Emerson said. “I want tobe around people who willpush me to be better.”

His advice to other stu-dents who may be facingstruggles: “take it little bylittle, so you’re not over-whelmed.”

“Stay in network andmake sure you stay on topof your priorities.”

Chronic diseasewon’t stop McAuleygrad

Kristina Griffin cameinto McAuley High Schoolwith expectations.

She thought it would betough academically. Sheexpected an all-girl schoolto be different. Sheplanned to make newfriends as she movedfrom Our Lady of Grace.She decided to run crosscountry.

The North College Hillresident didn’t expect tobe diagnosed with ulcera-tive colitis, a chronic ill-ness that she will likelydeal with for the rest ofher life.

According to theCrohn’s and Colitis Foun-dation of America, ulcera-tive colitis is a chronic dis-ease of the large intestine,in which the lining be-comes inflamed and de-velops tiny open sores, orulcers. The combinationof inflammation and ul-ceration can cause ab-dominal discomfort andother symptoms.

That’s tough to takewhen you are an activeteen. She was anxiousabout how she was feel-ing, and the symptoms sheexperienced, so she didn’ttell her parents, Shelleyand Joel, at first.

As the symptoms gotworse, she shared, andfound herself on the wayto the emergency room.Doctors pushed fluids,helped control the painand began to chart a planto control her symptoms.

“I had no clue what washappening, and it scaredme,” she said. “It had nev-er happened before, but Iknew something waswrong.”

Something was wrongand doctors said it was ul-cerative colitis.

Griffin suffered pain,fatigue, and a loss of appe-tite, at one point droppingto 89 pounds. She went ona variety of medicationsto control the disease in aneffort to get it into remis-sion.

There was an upside,she says. “Without the

need to balance sports andacademics, my grades ac-tually went up,” she said.“The grades are lookingreally good.”

She knows what sheneeds to do to take care ofherself: get enough sleep,eat right and pay attentionto how she’s feeling. “Ialso have to watch that Idon’t get too stressed,”she said.

She still managed tostay active at school.

“I wouldn’t say it’s keptme from having fun,” shesaid. Involved in KeyClub, Relay for Life, andAmbassadors at McAuley,she stayed active andmade friends. She saysprom at Paul Brown Stadi-um and flag football onMercy Day stand out asgood times during hersenior year. Now she’slooking forward to collegeand making new friends.“But we’ll always be con-nected to to McAuley,”she said.

She’s also practical andsays the illness is shapingher character.

“I can’t get rid of this,”she said. “I have to cope.At first, I had a lot of fear.I was embarrassed aboutall the ‘what if this hap-pens?’ questions. I havedefinitely taught myselfto power through that.And I think it’s taught menot to judge. And to learnthat what you can’tchange, you have to justget through.

“It’s helped me under-stand what people withchronic illnesses gothrough,” she said. “And Ihave learned to be grate-ful when I have a goodday.”

Grad is firstgeneration tocollege, with deeproots indetermination

It’s a heavy responsi-bility to carry. WintonWoods graduate Cindy Vi-var-Perez will follow hersister to be the first gener-ation in her family to go tocollege.

She will attend the Uni-versity of Cincinnati,where she will study fash-ion design in the DAAPprogram.

Her parents set the barfor her as a child, “drillingeducation and always ex-pecting high grades.”

“They didn’t have theopportunity to go to col-lege,” Vivar-Perez said ofher father, who was raisedin Guatemala anddropped out at age 13 to goto work, and her mother,who grew up in Mexico.

“It drives me to be thefirst, and to set an exam-ple for my younger sis-ter,” who will enter highschool in the fall.

To improve herchances of being accept-ed into college, she volun-teered for community ser-vice opportunities.Among them was helpingat Stepping Stones, a non-profit organization thathelps those with disabili-ties become more in-volved in their communi-ties. Among the programsoffered is a summercamp, where Vivar-Perezvolunteered. That experi-ence impacted Cindy, aswell.

“Knowing I can helphas moved me,” she said.“Being able to use myabilities to help them en-joy a day at camp pushedme.”

Among her other con-tributions to the commu-nity are volunteer work atthe Ronald McDonaldHouse. She also served asa school ambassador,played violin in the Win-ton Woods orchestra, andis a member of the Nation-al Honor Society.

“Because of her deter-mination, positivity andfamily support, I am con-fident Cindy will continueto achieve her highest po-tential,” guidance coun-selor Christina Jeraneksaid. “Not only is Cindyacademically talented,she has a kind heart.”

June 17-19 2016THE TRADITION STARTS NOWTRADITION STARTS NOWTHE TRADITION

JUNE 1, 2016 • NORTHWEST PRESS • 7ANEWS

These longer days find usoutside until just about dark.Both the vegetable and herbgardens are starting to lookreally nice. Not too manyweeds yet!

We’re already harvestingradishes. Alongwith the redglobe and Dai-kon radishes,one of our favor-ites turns out tobe an heirloomradish calledCincinnati rad-ish. Ron Wilson,gardening guru,gifted me with apack of seeds.

We’ve been eating them rawand also making open faceradish sandwiches. I wanted toshare that recipe since it takesradishes to a whole new level.Radishes, members of thecabbage family, are chock fullof nutrition: vitamins, antioxi-dants, minerals, fiber andanti-cancer qualities, as well.The leaves are edible, too!

So many of you asked forthe no fail pie crust recipe thatI’m including it here. I willconfess that it took me a longtime to make a good pie crustby hand.

My mom used to tell me notto fool too much with it andrelax. But the cookbook Iturned to instead of listeningto her instructed me to “cutthe fat into the flour until itlooks like small peas.” Really?Peas? And small peas? Easiersaid than done when you’re anovice like I was!

My first attempt was atwo-crust apple pie that looked

gorgeous. But when it came tocut the pie, a regular knifewouldn’t go through the topcrust. I would up literallysawing through the crust witha large serrated knife.

The crust was beyond toughbecause I had overworked thedough. My saving grace wasthat the filling was delicious,but I learned a valuable les-

son: Mom really did knowbest!

Radish sandwicheswith Boursin

Slice a thin French ba-guette, on the diagonal into1/2-inch slices. Brush with a bit ofolive oil and run under broilerjust until golden on top side.Spread some Boursin or herbedcheese on bread and top withvery thinly sliced radishes.

No fail pie crust

Instructions are very de-tailed to make it easy for you.Make sure shortening and waterare cold.

2 cups all purpose flour1/2 teaspoon baking powder

(the secret ingredient whichmakes the crust flaky)

1/4 teaspoon salt1 cup cold Crisco shortening- I

use Crisco sticks1/2 cup ice cold water

Whisk flour, baking powderand salt together. Cut up Criscointo very small pieces and put ontop of flour mixture. Using apastry blender, two knives or fork(I use a fork), quickly work Criscointo flour mixture. You could alsodo this in a food processor usingthe pulse button. You’ll know it’sgood when the Crisco is in flattishsmall pieces and coated withflour. It takes about 3-4 minutesby hand and less than a minute inthe processor.

Pour the water all over flourmixture and mix again quicklyuntil the dough comes togetherbut still is lumpy. If a few drypieces remain on the bottom ofthe bowl, just leave them.

If using the food processor,pulse just until water is incorpo-rated and dough still lookslumpy.

Dump out onto a lightlyfloured counter. Bless the dough!(A tradition in our home). Gatherinto a ball and pat into a disk.Sprinkle a bit of flour on top andthen roll out a bit larger than thepie plate. If it starts to stick onbottom, add a little more flouronto counter. If it sticks on top,add a little more flour.

Carefully put it in the piepan, and pat down bottom andsides of the dough into pan. Thishelps prevent shrinking duringbaking. Cut plain edge with aknife or flute if you like.

Dough can be refrigerated,well wrapped, up to 3 days orfrozen for 3 months, either rolledout or not.

The Reds, no playoffsagain!

Last year there were 19 formerReds in the playoffs for otherteams. This year there may be evenmore along with former managerDusty Baker.

Dusty took the Reds to threeplayoff appearances in four years,

but was fired. One man’s junk is an-other man’s treasure. The Reds arethe new “farm system” for MajorLeague Baseball’s other 29 teams.Look for Dusty to lead his new teamto the playoffs as the Reds “re-build” again. Go figure!

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

May 25 questionWhat is your all-time favorite

movie - the one that you will alwayswatch if you come across it whilechannel-surfing? Why do you like it?

“Really tough call. For spectacu-lar scenery and weak acting, it’s‘The Eiger Sanction.’ For the mostintensity, ‘Argo.’ Best portrayal ofJack Nicholson by Jack Nicholson,‘As Good As It Gets.’ Reasons are allpersonal. Wife and I engaged on theEiger Glacier while skiing. I tookmany trips to Tehran before theAyatholla and as the unrest grew togunfire in the alley where I wasstaying. Jack Nicholson has playedso many ‘Jack Nicholson’ roles, hehas become my favorite. Yet, I de-spised ‘Anger Management’ and‘Chinatown.’ ‘You can’t handle thetruth!’ is even more iconic than‘Heeere’s Johnnnie.’”

D.B.

“My favorite, all-time, No. 1,most awesome, incredibly mean-ingful, deep and amazing movie isthe ‘70s classic ‘Harold and Maude,’which tells the quirky story of alove affair (but mostly relationship)between an 18-year-old over-privi-leged young man with a death ob-session (not what you may think)and a 79-year-old concentrationcamp survivor with a spunk for life.If you have never seen this power-ful movie you must. If you haveseen it over 100 times, as someone Iknow, it’s past due time to immerseone’s self in it yet again. This movieis quirky, no doubt, but it holds somany deeper philosophical insightsand positions on life that have beenpermanently woven into the fabricof my life.

“Although not asked, you mustbe wondering what other moviesround out my all-time Top 5 andthey are: ‘Pay It Forward,’ ‘Out OfTime,’ ‘My Cousin Vinny’ and ‘TheShawshank Redemption.’ Rush outto Netflix or the library and enjoyall of these gems soon.”

M.J.F.

“My all time favorite movie is‘Step Brothers’ with Will Ferrelland John C. Reilly. It is one of thefunniest movies I have ever seen. Ifind myself laughing just thinkingabout the interactions of the twostep brothers in the film.”

C.S.

“My favorite movie of all time is‘Animal House.’ It is a comedic timepiece from the 1970s about collegelife around that time frame from amale perspective. There weremany future stars in that movie thatgot their start including John Belu-shi and Kevin Bacon to name two.

“Every time I see that movie itmakes me smile and think about thegood old days. Go Figure!”

CH@TROOM

THIS WEEK’S QUESTIONDescribe your “brush with great-ness.”

Every week we ask readers a question theycan reply to via email. Send your answers [email protected] withCh@troom in the subject line.

Seemingly, when some-one wants to demolishtheir so called “landmark”building, the preservationcommunity always criesfoul. Now, the old Denni-son Hotel serves as a newline in the sand battleground. Why?

For perspective weneed to ask: “Why do somany of our neighbor-hoods experience a birth todeath life cycle? Whatvital signs are necessaryin order for a neighbor-hood to resuscitate itselfand be deemed “reborn”?Why are so many movingback to “invest” in oururban cores and first ringsuburbs?

Ultimately, the moneymoves because the neigh-borhood story changes.How a neighborhoodchanges depends on thepublic’s perception ofevery neighborhood storysubtitle: Is it gettingworse, or is it getting bet-ter?

Locally, the power ofstory is profound. WorldWar I encouraged our cityleaders to disavow thecontributions made toCincinnati heritage by itsethnic German citizens -and our iconic, urban coreGerman neighborhoodstook a long turn for theworse. Interestingly, bycelebrating our Germanheritage in a story tellingway, the perception ofthese neighborhoods im-proved. Fortunately, there

wasenough ofthe area’sarchitec-tural heri-tage re-maining,althoughdilapi-dated. Thevisualprops tre-mendously

helped the storytellers.Without them, there wouldbe no walking tours tokindle our imaginationsand stoke a “move back”preservation vision. Thesebuildings are the ‘vitalsigns’ that romanticize theneighborhood story - thestoryline’s lifeline thatconnects the past with thepresent and the future.

Thankfully, this time-machine thinking is resur-recting these buildings,and in turn the Downtownliving experience. Sadly,the Joseph Auto Groupnow wishes to build anoffice tower by demolish-ing the structurally soundDennison - a landmark anda featured character in astory that helps us see theurban area in a new goldenage. Arguably, Joseph hasleading man qualities.However, many believethe neighborhood scriptwill not showcase the tow-er’s talent. Dennison willdie, and the replacementtower’s starring role willbe that of a hit-man. Sure-ly, the majority who enjoy

the story’s preservationtheme will not see theneighborhood as gettingbetter.

I’m reminded of a con-versation with my Germancousin. I marveled at therhyme and reason in whichthe Germans redeveloptheir public realm, pre-serving and repurposingtheir best buildings - andtheir stories. He simplyshrugged his shouldersand said, “We build it forthe next guy.” By contrast,here at home, redevel-opment that trumpets the“new and improved” at theexpense of our “best of theold” too often screams,“Me First!” to the deter-ment of the neighborhoodstory. It’s a story that, likethe public realm, belongsto all of us.

Even though the Denni-son is protected by thelaws of the local historicdistrict, the HistoricalConservation Board isconsidering Joseph’s dem-olition request. Hopefully,the power of the purse willnot encourage these ap-pointed board members todisavow our architecturalheritage. Ideally, these“city leaders” will think tomake the next generationsmile when asked, “What’syour neighborhood story?”

What’s yourneighborhood story?

Jim GraweCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

It is important to startwith some history.

I was in business formore than 40 years andhave been retired for morethan 12 years. What I amabout to tell you is fromexperience and totally forthe good of those who arewilling to accept an artifi-cial raise in income. Yourwages are an importantfactor in your life. Themost important factor isnot how much you make,but what it will buy. That isdetermined by all of thecosts that go into the finalproduct.

I am going to bringsome truth into an in-crease in the minimumwage. I dealt with it for myentire business career.Let’s start with beginningworkers. If they are givena raise in the minimum, allof the people who areabove them in the wagescale will be receiving aproportionately higherwage.

In addition, all of thetaxes that are assessed onwages will be added to thecosts of the product orservice you are making orproviding. When you go tothe store, you will find thatvery soon your wages willbuy less than they did.

There are other factorsworking against you. Im-ports will have started to

replacethe prod-ucts youmake. Or,your em-ployer willstart usingautomatedmachinesthat re-duce yourvalue toyour em-

ployer.Let me give you a good

example. In our business,The Clifton Shirt Co. inLoveland, we had a veryloyal work force. We dideverything we could tokeep them. It is easier tocompete when your train-ing costs and absenteelosses are minimal. Ourunion was a plus factor asthey promoted our sales.During one negotiationsession, they asked for a20-cent an hour raise. Myresponse was, would yousettle for 25 cents?

Loyalty was a valuableasset. Times changed. Wehad eight skilled operatorsand one semiskilled personon a critical operation. Anexpensive new machinehad been invented. Webought two of them. Theywould replace nine skilledwith two motivated un-skilled operators. Ma-chines do not take time offand as wages increased

our costs dropped sincethe cost of the machinesremained constant.

Competition rapidlychanged our operation.Imports and non-unionshops became powerfulcompetitors. The loyalty ofour customers became avictim of lower prices. Ouronly advantage wasprompt delivery. Even thatbecame less as lower costsallowed higher inven-tories. One only has to lookat container ships withpre-packaged containersset up for cheap andprompt delivery.

If the governmentwants to really help work-ers, it will make it profit-able to hire people andprofitable to take a job.This can be done by reduc-ing the size and cost ofgovernment. It will also benecessary to reduce use-less and costly regulations.

COLERAIN TWP. - Weeksback, as the colors of springfought off the last of winter, Col-erain High School track andfield coach Sarah Chisom knewshe saw potential packed intoCardinal Stadium.

She just wasn’t sure whowould grab hold of that poten-tial, and keep pulling to seewhat’s possible.

“At the beginning of the sea-son when we talked, we talkedabout how a lot of these kids hadreally strong potential,” saidChisom. “It’s been really fun towatch them be competitive injust about every meet that wewent to. Really they all knewwhen it was time to work thehardest and they did a reallynice job getting out of the dis-trict meet.”

This season, the Cardinalsmore than doubled their region-

al output and all of this season’sregional qualifiers are first-timers.

“Last year we had four (re-gional) qualifiers, all individ-uals,” Chisom said. “So to havethree relays and two individualsis really exciting.”

For the girls, Colerain’s4x100 and 4x200 relays bothmade it out of the district. The4x200 ran 1:48.24 behind juniorAlexa Baumgardner, sopho-more Azaria Howlett, sopho-more Tiara Johnson and seniorSelena Williams. The 4x100 withHowlett, Williams, Johnson andjunior Brittany Webster ran51.23 and placed third.

The boys were led by juniorKeontae Jones who finishedrunner-up in the long jump(22’2.25”) to make it to region-als. Junior Jordan Gregoryplaced third in 1,600 with a timeof 4:34.18. Colerain’s 4x800 re-lay also advanced out of dis-tricts with a time of 8:19.07.

Gregory, senior Pietro Martel-letti, junior Luke Dunbar andsenior Vince Sprague run on the4x800.

Jones, a defensive back onthe football field for the Cardi-nals, decided to pick up trackand field this season.

“He’s a football player so wefigured he would be fast,” Chi-som said. “But the long jump tome, at least, has been a pleasantsurprise over the season. Hehad never jumped before. Oneof my assistants, Kristen Seiler,has worked really, really hard tohelp all the jumpers with themall pretty much being new.”

With the entire group com-peting for the first time at theregional meet, Chisom said,“We’re just really trying to keepthem calm, we’re talking aboutdoing all the right things thisweek, from hydrating, to sleep-ing. We talk to them about the

MT. HEALTHY – This sea-son, Mount Healthy’s trackand field athletes havegrabbed attention for whatthey do during the events.

But for a couple student-athletes, Jamel Kelly and Lon-nie Phelps, it was what theydid after the race that madepeople take notice.

The freshmen gave theirmedals to Harrison’s TravisTedesco. As mentioned in aprevious Enquirer story, Te-desco suffered a stroke sixweeks before he was born,leaving him with limited use ofthe left side of his body.

“We wanted him to feel thelove and show him we arethankful for him to still be outthere competing in track,”Phelps said.

For the boys, the decision togive up their medals was un-prompted by coaches, parentsor teammates. It was an easychoice, too.

“My mom always tells meto be thankful for what youhave,” Kelly said. “What hedeals with, he physicallydoesn’t have what I have.However, I still wanted him toknow he did well in the race.”

Wildcat track and fieldhead coach Scott Menze saidit’s nice when people from oth-er schools recognize and re-

spect the work Tedesco putsinto competing at the highschool level.

The gesture isn’t some-thing most people would ex-pect out of underclassmen be-cause the odds are good theydon’t have as many medals asan upperclassman would.

That didn’t matter in this in-stance.

Mount Healthy Athletic Di-rector Tina Tuck said it wasjust another example of themany Owl student-athleteswho display good character.

“I call them my sunshinekids,” she said of those ath-letes. “This was somethingthey did on their own, youcould just tell. They were al-ready finished with the raceand went right to him after hefinished. Usually, you don’t getthat kind of stuff from fresh-men. That’s that weird age. Iknow of them because theyplay sports, but that told me alot about their character.”

She added that those ac-tions are the type of thing shehopes to see out of everyMount Healthy athlete.

It could be said that Phelpsand Kelly were just trying toemulate a couple of Owls whohave gone before them.

“They’re all seeded

like 8-9 so the podium is apossibility for all of them,you never know what canhappen.”

Chisom said the suc-cess this year has given ayoung team confidence.

“We are a very youngteam, lots of freshmanand sophomores, so it’svery exciting and there’s

a lot of potential. We fin-ished a little higher in theGMC, scored more pointsthis year than last yearand had more regionalqualifiers. It’s a step in theright direction for sure,and to know we have thevast majority of thesekids for another year, it’ssomething to build on.”

CLIFTON - The stakescould not have been high-er as two of the area’s topbaseball teams – La Salleand Milford – went toe-to-toe on May 27 in a DivisionI regional championshipshowdown at MargeSchott Stadium on theUniversity of Cincinnaticampus.

A late barrage of runslifted La Salle over Mil-ford 7-1 to put the Lancersthrough to the state semi-finals for the first timesince 1995.

“It’s been a long time …50th anniversary of theprogram; it’s a great yearto do it,” said La Sallecoach Joe Voegele. “It’s agreat feeling for the LaSalle community.

“When we play hardwe’re a tough team tobeat.

The celebratory dog-pile that ensued after LaSalle senior pitcher JacobKaiser recorded the final

out of a complete-gamethree-hitter, sent the aceto the bottom of the pileand he was pretty happyswimming in a sea ofLancer red.

“I was at the very bot-tom,” said Kaiser, who’ssigned with the Univer-sity of Charleston. “It’spainful but when you gotthe adrenaline pumpingyou don’t feel it, you do notfeel it at all.

“I’m honestly speech-less right now, this is oneof the best feelings I’veever had. We’ve got onemore game to get (to thestate championship).”

As has become custom,La Salle’s defense behindKaiser was deadly. Mil-ford, which entered theregional final on an 11-game win streak, had onlyhit into 13 double plays allseason and La Salleturned three against theEagles Friday. At theplate, the Lancers (24-7)practiced patience anddid nearly all their dam-age with two outs.

“I thought the pitcher(Milford’s ace KyleRuehlman) was aroundthe plate a lot,” said Voe-gele. “I think if the pitch-er’s around the plate andwe get good pitches to hitwe usually hit those kindof guys. That’s what wedid. We got good pitches tohit and we took advantageof it.”

Milford (28-3) startedthe scoring in the bottomof the first inning toquickly go ahead 1-0. MattKirk ripped his first oftwo triples in the gamewith one out. After BradHall was hit by a pitch,Kirk scored on a wildpitch with Sam Dobrowol-ski at the plate.

The Lancers put thepressure on Ruehlmanand Milford's defense im-mediately. La Sallestranded two runners ineach of the first three in-nings, but the pressure fi-nally paid off in the third.

La Salle leveled thescoring in the third whenjunior left fielder Brady

Reynolds beat out a tripleand senior third basemanKevin Browne blasted aline drive right back upthe middle.

In the top of the fifth,La Salle went to work withtwo outs. Griffin Merrittdrew a walk and seniorcatcher Jon Hambricksingled to left. Juniorshortstop Tyler Wardwelllifted a two-run doubledown the left field line.Milford’s Chase Witte at-tempted to track it downbut he overran it and Mer-ritt and Hambrick scoredto give La Salle its firstlead of the game, 3-1.

The Lancers struckagain with two outs in thesixth and forced Milfordto make a pitchingchange. Xavier Univer-sity signee Andrew Sex-ton singled with one out toget the ball rolling, thenBrowne walked with twoouts and Quintin Baldwinwas hit by a pitch to loadthe bases. Merritt clearedthe bases with a double ona shot to center field that

gave La Salle a 6-1 edge.“Bases loaded, two

outs, only a 3-1 game, ev-eryone in the stands,they’re all standing up,”said Merritt. “I took thefirst pitch, he threw me agood pitch down andaway; came back with an-other good pitch, fastballdown and away. Then 0-2he threw me a pitch overthe middle, I’m guessingprobably a mistake pitch

and I took advantage ofit.”

The lead gave Kaisersome comfort, although itappeared he didn’t need it.

La Salle tacked on aninsurance run in the sev-enth, before Kaiser closedit out with a pair of popupsand a strikeout. La Sallewill face Solon (25-4) inthe state semifinals June2 at Huntington Park at 4p.m.

SPRINGFIELD TWP. -It’s fitting that as St. Xa-vier High School seniorAndrew Niehaus makeshis third consecutive tripto the Division I state sin-gles tennis tournament,he’s finally got somecompany in doublesteammates Waqas Tan-veer, a senior, and PeterSchulteis, a junior.

Coach Russ King,who’s now in his 32ndseason with the Bomb-ers, said Niehaus is inrarefied air with threesingles trips to state.

King said he doesn’tbelieve St. Xavier’s everhad a four-time state sin-gles qualifier, so for Nie-haus to qualify in threestraight seasons is im-pressive considering theBombers’ rich tennis his-tory. Tanveer and Schul-teis will make their firstappearance at state onMay 27 at the LindnerFamily Tennis Center, af-ter Community Pressprint deadline.

Niehaus, who’s signedwith Northern KentuckyUniversity, won a districtchampionship to ad-vance to state. Tanveerand Schulteis placedthird at districts to earn astate berth.

King said he was a lit-tle surprised his doublesteam was able to punchits state ticket, mainlybecause Sycamore andMason merged their topsingles players into dou-bles teams, according toKing.

“They got the rightdraw and they finally gotthrough. I was surprised;there’s a lot of other good

doubles teams,” saidKing. “It was kind of niceto see that, I was happythey made it.”

Although Niehaus haswalked away winlessfrom his first three tripsto state, King said it willbe key for all threeBombers to get off to afast start.

“What happens is, a lotof kids, they get up thereand they see all thesepeople they recognize,these legends and theyget a little bit scared andall the sudden, after thefirst three games you’redown 0-3 and you’re introuble,” said King, whowent on to say concentra-tion is the key early inthat first match at state.

“Andrew on the otherhand knows: This timewe’re not gonna let our-self get down,” King said.“He feels better pre-pared for it. He’s physi-cally in better shape. Thekey I told him is to justtry and make it to Satur-day (May 28). You neverknow what can happen atthat point.”

At press time, Nie-haus won his first roundat state against Josh Hsiaof St. Ignatius, and wasset to play Paul Gota ofHunting Valley Univer-sity in the second round.
