started with the township15 years ago. ThelmaToennis says she’s lived inthe area of the floodingsince 1950. The road was agravel road then, and thearea didn’t have a flood-ing problem, but as theneighborhood grew, it de-veloped issues when thearea experienced a heavyrain. Now Toennis has twosump pumps, but if the

rain is hard enough, it’stough for them to keep up.

“I had to call the firedepartment last year,”she said. “The water wascoming so fast.”

She welcomes the pro-ject and says it will beworth having construc-tion to have the floodingissues stopped.

Gould said the town-ship wants to eliminateflooding hazards causedby a collapsed storm sew-er system. The townshipis working to keep all thenew infrastructure within

the public right-of-way toprevent additional pro-ject costs associated withbuying storm sewer ease-ments on private proper-ty.

Gould said he expectsthe project to go out to bidlate this month. The workshould be complete byfall.

“We were able to getsome grant money fromthe storm water district,and we are hoping thissolves the problem,”Gould said.

“I just thought (”The Fits”)was a regular movie,” Hightow-er said. “I didn’t know that itwould blow up like this.” Buteven with all the attention she’sbeen receiving, Hightower islike most fifth-graders. She en-joys math more than Englishand tries hard to keep up withher homework, even though thatsometimes has meant complet-

ing a work packet in a hotel roominstead of at home. As she’s trav-eled around the world to pro-mote the movie, her teachersand classmates back home havebeen happy and excited for her.

Hightower’s journey into act-ing began when writer, directorand producer Anna Rose Hol-mer chose the Q-kidz, the localdrill team Hightower belongs toin Cincinnati’s West End, as thefocus of her movie, “The Fits.”After auditioning several girlsfrom the Q-kidz, Holmer choseHightower to star as Toni, ayoung girl who leaves the worldof boxing, which she has sharedwith her brother, to join the highenergy drill team that practicesin the same recreation center.

Hightower loves to dance andhas been a part of the Q-kidzsince she was 6, following in thefootsteps of her older sister, Yr-majesti. These days she’s alsoteaching herself to tumble,which she said is “coming easy”because of her flexibility anddance background. Dancing andtumbling though come in a dis-tant second to Hightower’s newlove –acting.

Talent agencies are now call-ing her mom on a regular basis,and Hightower recently audi-tioned for two new roles.

“We taped the auditions athome instead of going to Califor-nia,” she said. As much fun as itwas playing Toni in “The Fits,”Hightower said her dream rolewould be in a horror film, whereshe plays the sole survivor.

“I really like acting and cansee it as a career,” she said.

“The Fits,” starring RoyaltyHightower, is coming to Cincin-nati this summer. Until then, thetrailer can be seen at thefitsfilm-.com.

» Whitaker Elementaryfourth-grader Ryan Schwabwon this year’s Block KidsBuilding Competition by turning100 Legos, a string, stone andpiece of cardboard into a solar-powered wood chipper. NowRyan moves onto regional com-petition in the Block Kids nation-al contest, which is sponsored bythe National Association of

Each year the Cincinnatichapter of NAWIC chooses oneschool in the region to host theBlock Kids competition. Whit-aker Elementary was this year’schosen school, and 68 studentstook part in the Jan. 30 competi-tion.

Ryan’s entry was evaluatedby a team of professionals fromthe construction field who saidthe winning factors were Ryan’screativity, originality, back sto-ry – the wood chipper was aproduct of the “Rock Hard Con-struction Company” – and theproduct’s usefulness in the con-struction industry.

MARCH 9, 2016 • HILLTOP PRESS • 7ANEWS

One of my most memorable cateringevents was a Jewish Seder supper. Now Iwill tell you this was years ago, and I knewvery little about the Seder supper cele-brated on Passover.

Well, about that time, our Catholicchurch held a Seder supper and I helpedwith the food. One of the items we servedat our church dinner was matzo bread/crackers that we purchased.

During the Seder meal that I catered, Iremember vividly the Seder plate with thecrisp matzo that the hostess had made her-self, in the center of the plate, surrounded by othermeaningful foods, all of which were important tothe celebration.

Recently, one of my listeners to my Sonrisemorning show program on Sacred Heart radiowanted to make homemade matzo for a Passovercelebration for her family. I had a recipe tuckedaway in my files so last night I decided to make it.

The history behind matzo is that it shouldbe made, from start to finish, in 18 minutessince that’s the time frame believed to keepthe dough from starting to ferment or leavenfrom the moisture. It honors the quick de-parting of the Israelites from Egypt. Theyhad to make bread in haste so unleavenedbread took less time, and that’s what theymade.

Did I finish it in 18 minutes? No, I dawdledaround but the recipe was super easy andtasty. When I pulled it out of the oven I askedmy husband, Frank, if he would taste a piece.

“Only if you put butter on it,” he said. So much forPassover traditions!

Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herbalist, educator,Jungle Jim’s Eastgate culinary professional andauthor. Find her blog online at Abouteating.com.Email her at [email protected] with “Ri-ta’s kitchen” in the subject line.

Easy homemade crisp matzo

This reminds me of the pita chips you buy. This is avery crisp cracker that is good for dipping or just breakingapart and eating. If you’d like to see step-by-step photos ofthe process, check out my abouteating.com site. This is afun recipe for the little ones to help with.

2 cups all purpose flour - you can also use wholewheat but you’ll need a bit more water

1 cup water1 tablespoon salt1 tablespoon olive oil plus extra for brushing on

matzo

Preheat oven to 475. Spray cookie sheets.Mix the flour, water, salt and olive oil. Knead briefly

on a floured surface until the dough comes together into asmooth ball, a few minutes. You’ll need to add a bit of flouruntil it’s no longer sticky. Bless the dough!

With your hands, roll into log and then cut into egg-sized pieces. Roll each piece out as thin as you can. Whenyou think it’s thin enough, keep rolling! Transfer to cookiesheet and prick all over to prevent puffing in the oven.

You can put the breads close together. I brushed somewith olive oil. Bake until crisp and golden brown in spots,5-7 minutes or so. After they came out of the oven, Ibrushed them again with olive oil.

Mini Easter egg nests like Russell Stovercandy

On this memorable fall2015 Election Day the earlymorning dew glistened fromthe rays of sunlight that pen-etrated the edges of Rich-ard’s bedroom drapes.

Basking in such a gloriousmorning Richard, neverimagined that later in the dayhis vote would be among themany compromised by Ham-ilton County’s new votingsystem. After hearing Ohio’sSecretary of State John Hust-ed proclaim, “the new systemis working,” Richard dis-carded an earlier reportabout voting issues in theeastern section of HamiltonCounty.

He drove to the local pre-cinct where he had voted forthe past 20 years to cast aballot. To his surprise therewas a line of voters extend-ing from the registrationtable to the front door. As hepeered around the line to theedge of the table, he observ-ed each voter signing an Ipadbefore receiving a ballot.

When he reached table,one of the three precinctelection officials asked forhis name, then initiated asearch on the Ipad to find hisregistration. Alas, three at-tempts failed to yield anyinformation. Finally, Richardwas “handed off” to the vot-ing location manager who didanother search yielding thesame result. At that point themanager gave him a provi-

sional ballotform attachedto an envelopeand sentencedhim to a cor-ner to com-plete the in-formation.

Once situ-ated in thecorner Rich-ard spied alist of all vot-

ers posted on back of theprecinct’s door. Finding hisname, he pointed it out to themanger who quickly respon-ded that the voting officialswere not using the list nor thetraditional shrink wrappedregistration book.

Faced with choice of com-pleting a provisional ballot ornot voting, Richard compliedwith the directions and pro-ceeded to exercise his rightto vote. While contemplatingthis task, he considered thatthe idea of a secret ballot wasdisenfranchised because allof his voter information waswritten on the envelope thatwould encase his ballot.

After he finally completedthe ballot and inserted it intothe envelope, he went outsideonly to discover that the day’sbright sunlight had becomeenshrouded by gatheringgrey clouds.

Later that evening whiletalking with a resident ofKentucky about the day’selections, Richard realized

that by 8:30 p.m. all of Ken-tucky’s votes had been count-ed and winners declared.Meanwhile, a local judge hadissued a court order for Ham-ilton County’s precincts toremain open until 9 p.m.since co many issues hadoccurred earlier.

Actually, the above scenar-io is just one of many in thecounty’s infamous history ofusing various voting systemsto manage elections and dis-seminate voting results. Inthe 2012

Presidential election thecounty was one of the lastnationwide to report finalElection Day results. Certain-ly, senior residents will recallall of the problems associatedwith old Coleman Vote Tabu-lation system the county usedfor years.

“Lest we forget,” now isthe time for the county’sboard of elections to fix thenew system before the 2016national election is held. For-tunately, there is a “dry run”opportunity in the Ohio pri-mary elections scheduled onthe “Ides of March.” Hopeful-ly all the voter problems areresolved and the nation willnot have to hold its collectivebreath until returns fromHamilton County are report-ed in November’s election.

March 2 questionA bill in the Ohio legislature

would require private schools topublish some information ontheir websites, including enroll-ment and financial data. Otherinformation – reading lists andschool bylaws, for example –would have to be accessible toparents of enrolled students. Isthis a good idea? Why or whynot?

“While transparencyshould be the rule for publicschools or any institution re-ceiving tax money, I don’tthink that level of transparen-cy should apply to privateschools.

“Any parent of a student at-tending a private schoolshould have open access to in-formation. If the parent isn’tsatisfied with the level of dis-closure they have the option ofprotest by withdrawing theirstudent and sending them toanother private school.

“As long as the privateschool isn’t receiving any pub-lic tax money there is no rea-son for any information onthat school, other than whatthey deem needed to attractstudents, to be available to thepublic.”

C.S.

“I am not sure what the poli-ticians’ motives are to requireprivate schools to post all thatinformation. There are public-ly traded companies and pri-vately owned companies withdifferent requirements forshowing their ‘books.’ Privateschools have an annual openhouse to show prospective stu-dents and their parents the in-formation they need to make adecision. A school’s enroll-ment is easily garnered via thedivision they are in for Ohioathletics (I to VII). Go Fig-ure!”

Feb. 24 questionShould the U.S. Senate hold

confirmation hearings if Presi-dent Obama nominates a suc-cessor to Supreme Court JusticeAntonin Scalia? Why or whynot?

“Yes, the Senate shouldhold hearings when (not if)Obama nominates our next Su-preme Court Justice. Howev-er, they should only acceptthat person if it is someonewhose beliefs are the same asmine. Therein lies the prob-lem: if the guy currently sit-ting in the office chooses wise-ly (my version of wise) all iswell. If he chooses someone Ibelieve is fundamentallywrong then it is not a goodthing and the Senate shoulddelay, delay, delay. In reality, itis within Obama’s purview tochoose a successor and heshould because if it was a Re-publican currently holdingthat seat you can be darnedcertain he would chose a jus-tice. The sad part is that a jobfor life with such power canchange the balance of powerand direction of this countryfor a long time.”

M.J.F.

“I went back and forth onthis question before it wasever put forth in this newspa-per. One might think therewould be hope for replace-ment of Justice Scalia with asimilar devotee of the law andthe Constitution since the Re-publicans have control of the

Senate. However, no matterwho Barack Obama nominatesand claims to be a non-parti-san, that wouldn’t necessarilybe so. Obama expects every-one to accept his word as spo-ken because, as he has notedbefore, “he is the president”and he can do what he wantsand expect compliance. Hehas the majority of the mediatouting whatever he says overand over, even challenginganyone who dares to say other-wise. Who in their right mindwould have ever imaginedthat America would be so con-trolled by the left-wingedmedia; and so what we havegot is over seven years of whatone man’s ideology and anti-Constitutional behavior, sup-ported by an aggressive innercircle, has done to our country.

“In the past, both Joe Bidenand Barack Obama have pro-tested against confirmationhearings during the count-down to a lame-duck presiden-cy. Now, as is usual for theDemocrats, they are protest-ing in the opposite directionbecause to do otherwise mightnot work out in their favor.Why? Because, if hearingswere to go forth, they believethey would be able to manipu-late and coerce enough Repub-licans (alas, those who aremore interested in keepingtheir posts than they are forlooking after the interests ofthe American people) into giv-ing in to them for confirmationof their chosen individual;someone who may well lookfairly appropriate enough onthe surface (think John Rob-erts,) so that the Rhinos mightfeel easier about their compli-ance. What America needs isto get the politics out of the ju-dicial!

If a conservative is not vot-ed in to be the next president,the question of a bi-partisannominee would be mute any-way. America would continuein the direction that Obamahas taken it, vulnerable on theworld stage and within its ownborders as well as further eco-nomic despair and erosion ofthe liberties that made Amer-ican great. Therefore, I wouldnot even entertain the idea ofhearings for a replacementjustice to the Supreme Courtuntil next year.”

S.N.

“The Constitution clearlystates that the president ‘shallnominate, and by and with theAdvice and Consent of the Sen-ate, shall appoint Ambassa-dors, other public Ministersand Consuls, Judges of the Su-preme Court.’ This is just an-other transparent attempt byRepublicans to subvert theConstitution and the rule oflaw… business as usual… inline with voter suppression,gerrymandering and support-ing the interests of the few atthe expense of the majority.”

Every week we ask readers a questionthey can reply to via email. Send youranswers [email protected] withCh@troom in the subject line.

Sooner or later, every com-munity has to consider when,how and whether to upgradeor even replace schools andequipment that serve theirchildren. It’s never an easydecision, but it’s necessary tokeep up with the demands ofnew technology, accessibility,safety, growing populations,and changes in education.

Studies show that there’s adirect link between the phys-ical characteristics of a schoolbuilding and students’ educa-tional results. Thanks to thesupport of their communities,many of the school districts inour region have been able toprovide school facilities thatencourage positive results.

At career-technical schoolslike Great Oaks, we must notonly create a positive environ-ment, we must have class-rooms and labs that give stu-dents real-world experiences.That means making sure thatculinary students have a com-mercial kitchen in which tolearn; that health, dental andsurgical technologies pro-grams have labs that look,feel and work like medicalfacilities; that the sustainableurban agriculture studentshave a greenhouse, and so on.

A proper learning environ-ment also means the rightequipment: Aviation studentshave airplanes to work on,heavy industrial diesel stu-dents have trucks, and com-

puter serviceand digitalarts studentshave up-to-date technol-ogy.

Great Oaksstudents alsohave the bene-fit of a suppor-tive communi-ty. Nearly$500,000 in

Trimble Navigation GPS hard-ware and software was re-cently donated so that ourheavy equipment students canbecome trained and certifiedin satellite technology that’sbeing used in real-world con-struction layout. We’ve alsobeen able to enhance labs andupdate campuses within ourcurrent tax levy, and aStraight A grant has enabledus to build a state-of-the-artrobotics and advanced manu-facturing lab that will be usedby future engineers, areacompanies, and local workerswho need to upgrade theirskills.

The surgical equipment,computerized manufacturingmachines, 3D printers, horsesand other animals, powertools, kitchens, constructionequipment, cosmetology sta-tions, veterinary operatingsuites, welding labs, automo-tive paint booths, and otherfacilities and equipment atGreat Oaks give high school

and adult students the experi-ence they need to be success-ful in their profession.

You have provided thosefor students in southwestOhio, and we’re grateful. Iinvite you to visit DiamondOaks, Laurel Oaks, Live Oaksor Scarlet Oaks to see yourcommunity’s public career-technical school.

Roger Bacon’s sixth boysbasketball district title in sevenyears is not a tale of redemp-tion.

Last season’s team was tal-ented, but young, and the Spar-tans’ streak of five straight dis-trict championships was bro-ken. The team graduated justone senior and entered this sea-son with confidence. The Spar-tans were not thinking about ormotivated by last year’s post-season shortcomings. Instead,they were focused on playing upto their abilities this year.

“This is one of the more tal-ented groups I’ve had,” saidhead coach Brian Neal. “We’re ayear older, a year wiser, and ayear better. Another year of ma-turity certainly helps.”

Despite all their talent, theSpartans are still a relativelyyoung squad. Of the six playersaveraging between 7.6 and 15.2points per game, only two areseniors (senior Elijah Fultonleads the squad with 15.2 pointsper game). Add in the fact thatGCL Coed Central Division ri-val Purcell Marian is loadedwith senior talent, and RogerBacon had to learn how to play adifferent role this season.

The younger players had tolearn that they cannot get by onskill alone. Once they startedbuying into selfless team bas-ketball, the Spartans began roll-ing.

“We started accepting whowe are. We have talent, but wehave to do more to win games,”said Neal. “We’ve embraced thechallenge that we’re not the fa-vorite.”

It's taken a total team effort.Despite 19 wins and counting,no Spartans players earned All-District recognition.

Since back-to-back losses toPurcell Marian and Elder toclose out January and begin

February, the Spartans havereeled off seven straight winsby an average margin of victoryof 28 points per game.

Three dominant wins in thesectional tournament were fol-lowed by a hard-fought 47-42win over Northridge in the dis-trict final. While that wasn’t thetempo or style of game that theSpartans like to play, it showedthat they can battle and win bymaking clutch plays in clutchmoments.

“This stretch, we’re reallydoing a nice job of taking care ofeach other and making the rightplays at the right time,” saidNeal. “We’ve worked hard onmaking those little plays that

DAYTON - After beatingteams, 95-30, 84-31and 88-48 toadvance to this point, the 47- 42win against Northridge was abit of a jolt to the Roger BaconSpartans, who had played wellin the postseason.

The Spartans have now wonsix district titles in the last sev-en years.

“Survive is probably a goodterm,” coach Brian Neal said.“In the sectional, we wereplaying really well. No disre-spect to the teams we beat, butthey probably aren’t the qual-ity of Northridge. We didn’t ex-actly play our best game to-night. Credit to our guys, westill found a way to win.”

Neither team shot the ballwell in the first half. The Spar-tans canned just six of the 23shots they took. Northridgemade 35 percent.

Both teams were playing ata frenetic pace. Bacon opted toslow it down in the second half.

“We felt like we are capableof playing both ways,” Nealsaid. “We are capable of play-ing fast and capable of playinga half-court game. We felt likethey were really good playingfast. We wanted to be opportu-nistic, but we wanted to makeit a 5-on-5, grind-it-out game.”

In the second half, with theoffense at a more even pace,the Spartans shot the muchbetter. In the third quarter,they hit almost 50 percent oftheir shots.

The thing Neal will empha-size in practices getting readyfor the next game is taking

care of the ball. The Spartanshad 16 miscues.

“We turned it over way toomany times,” the coach said.“Looking ahead, we have to fix

that.”The Spartans will play the

winner of the Columbus 1 Dis-trict March 9 at Kettering Fair-mont.

DAYTON - Stopping Jack-son Center’s Brady Wilder-muth had to be a big chunk ofCincinnati Christian coachCarl Woods’ plan in the Divi-sion IV district final March 2at UD Arena.

It didn’t go as Woods andcompany drew it up in the daysleading up to the game.

He finished with 28 of theTigers’ 46 points and helpedend the Miami Valley Confer-ence Gray Division champi-on’s season with a 46-43 win.

“We wanted to contain him,front the post and not gamble(by overplaying),” coachWoods said. “On a couple of oc-casions, our guys gambledanyway and he made us payfor it. In some cases, we hadsome success. Nick Hessel-gesser came off the bench andhad great success and playedhim (Wildermuth) well. Othertimes, we fouled him and heknocked those free throwsdown. He’s a very good free-throw shooter. ”

Both teams were deliberateto start out as Jackson Centerled the game 8-3 after theopening quarter.

Three different Tiger play-ers found the bottom of thenet. Christian Keese and Bra-dy Roberts scored for the Cou-gars.

Aided by made shots, Cin-cinnati Christian - whose ros-ter includes boys from Finney-town - found a semblance ofrhythm. Nathan Grammel andDylan Woods each tallied fivepoints and CCS had its first

lead of the game, 18-16 at thebreak.

Carl Woods said he didn’t doanything different to open theoffense.

“It went back to knowingthat this was these guys’ firsttime on this stage,” the coachsaid. “It was going to be alearning experience. I knewthey’d be jittery coming out ofthe gate. Once they got settleddown, they were fine. I sort ofexpected that and they turnedit around.”

In the second half, it was allWildermuth.

Instead of just getting theball fed to him on the lowblock, coach Scott Elchert hadhim handle the point guard du-ties and ran the offense exclu-sively through him.

The plan worked well asscored almost every Tigerpoint in the third quarter andweaved his way through theCougar defense and put him-self on the free throw lineplenty in the final quarter.

However, a glimmer ofhope came in that final frame.

The Spartans are play-ing their best at the mostimportant time of theyear. That is another prod-uct of the team’s overallmaturity. Every player on

the roster has contributedto the steady improve-ment. Practices havebeen increasingly com-petitive, thanks to the con-tributions of all 15 youngmen on the roster.

“Honestly, we juststarted playing reallygood basketball the pastcouple weeks,” said Neal.“We don’t feel like we’vereached the end of the lineyet. Hopefully, we’repeaking at the right time.”

Wildermuth, who wasin foul trouble, picked uphis final foul late in thegame.

CCS, which had kept itclose all game long, hadits best chance.

Late in the game, Cin-cinnati Christian cut a six-point lead to two followinga Grammel free throwand triple.

A pair of Jackson Cen-ter free throws didn’t fallon their next possessionand the Cougars pulleddown the rebound.

Carl Woods called atimeout with 11.6 secondsleft.

The Cougars rolled theball up the floor to DeJuanRinger, who picked it up athalf court.

He found his openingand took the shot. Itrimmed out; Jackson Cen-ter ball.

The Tigers came back,

sank a shot from the char-ity stripe and watched alast-second heave fall farfrom the goal.

CCS wraps up the sea-son 19-7.

“We’re losing somevery key players likeRinger and Grammel,even Matt Fisher andDrew Allen,” Woods said.“There will be some chal-lenges replacing thoseguys, but we have a goodnucleus and depth thatcan replace and fill thoseroles.”

La Salle’s Da’Meak Brandondrives to the basket againstCenterville in a Division Idistrict final on Saturday.

FOREST PARK - Thelast time Winton WoodsHigh School had a statewrestling qualifier wasJoe Booker in 2008.

That didn’t sit wellwith Cornell Beachem,who ended the nearly dec-ade-long drought this sea-son by taking third placeat districts. At the Divi-sion I state tournamentMarch 4-5 at Ohio State’sSchottenstein Center,Beachem lost a tough 9-8decision in the first round,but he bounced back witha 15-5 major decision.Beachem’s state run end-ed short of the podiumwith a heartbreaking 5-3overtime loss; a winwould have guaranteed apodium place. His seasonrecord was 43-5.

Beachem, a 145-poundsophomore, waged warjust to reach the state lev-el.

“He got to the semifi-nals (at districts) first andhe had (Ryley) Regan, areturning state placerfrom Miamisburg; wewrestled him earlier inthe year and he beat us byfour points,” said WintonWoods coach Jason Dean.“(The district semi re-match) ended up going totriple overtime and welost.

“Cornell droppeddown to the consolationsemis and that’s one of thehardest to win … you got-ta rebound, you gotta beready to wrestle your go-

to match against a guycoming off a victory. Thatguy was from Glen Este.(Cornell) was pretty toreup after that semi (loss);he was in tears and we hadto tell him you’re not doneyet, get your mind back ontrack.”

Beachem took the mes-sage to heart, and insteadof folding like a lawnchair, he dug in deep andrevealed his resolve.

After a short breakBeachem “went out thereand took it to him, got acouple takedowns rightaway and put him on hisback and pinned him,”said Dean.

“It was awesome … forhim it was really special,that’s what he worked alllast summer and allspring; that makes it allworth it. It’s like a wavelifted off you. Youcouldn’t stop the smiles

from everyone.” One of those smiles be-

longed to Dean’s assistantcoach Tom Nelson, whoDean said had never beento the state tournamentever.

“He’s almost 70 yearsold, he’s a retired teacherand I was happy for him toget to go up there and seeit,” said Dean, who can’thelp but be hopeful for thefuture.

“Cornell, this is onlyhis third year wrestling,”he said. “If you can get (tostate) your sophomoreyear, wrestle, maybe get alucky placement; junioryear maybe you go backand place, then maybesenior year you go backand win it.

“Who knows what hecan do, I don’t count himout of anything right now.He’s dangerous.”

MONFORT HEIGHTS- La Salle wrestling coachAvery Zerkle knew hisstable of Lancers were ca-pable of a run to state, andhe was right.

The Lancers sent aschool record six wres-tlers to the Division I statetournament.

“We actually looked itup,” Zerkle said. “We be-lieve in the ‘80s, either ’82or ’83 they had five. This isthe most La Salle’s everhad. It’s exciting, we’vebeen working hard to getthe program going in thisdirection and it’s finallyhere. We’re very excited.”

Zerkle said before thepostseason started thatthe focus was on one day,one tournament at a time.

But March 3-5 at OhioState University’s Schot-tenstein Center, the sea-son ran out of road. Therewere no more tourna-ments, no more weightchecks, all that remainedwas blood, sweat andgrappling for greatness.

La Salle’s six statequalifiers were freshmanLucas Byrd, junior CoreyShie, junior Eric Beck, ju-nior Hunter Perdue, soph-omore Blake Wilson andfreshman Michael Baker.

Byrd, Shie and Beck allsecured a spot on the podi-um.

Corey Shie, a three-time district championand state qualifier, couldbecome known as the“Overtime Assassin” af-ter his performance onthe final day of the statetournament March 5.

In a 132-pound consola-tion semifinal, Shie pulledoff a reversal and pin inovertime, followed by an11-4 overtime decision toclinch third place.

“It felt great to getback in the semis like I didfreshman year,” said Shie,who finished the yearwith a 43-4 record. “It’sdefinitely great to havemy teammates with me,supporting me.”

Byrd placed seventh at

106 and Beck wrestledthrough a nasty hand inju-ry to place seventh at 138.

“It’s a lot different be-cause I wrestled in juniorhigh and I was in the finalsthree times,” said Byrd.“It’s just a different expe-rience because you’ve gothundreds of peoplewatching you.”

The Lancers know withall six of their state quali-fiers being underclass-men, the future could bevery bright.

“We’ve got one moreschool record we’ve gottabreak,” said Zerkle.“They placed second (as ateam) in the state back inthe ‘70s, so if we could ob-viously tie or break thatrecord it would be prettyawesome.”
