Tell Tales

n It is official! It’s spring! Today, Thursday, March 20, 2014, is the spring equinox. That means as the earth travels around the sun, spinning on its axis, the equa-tor is centered on the sun, and daylight is equalized with nighttime. From now until the autumn equinox, the northern hemisphere will receive more direct sun-light than the southern hemisphere. So, I would like to politely ask the piles of snow and the ice on Lake Erie to remove themselves. Thank you.

n An old friend of Port Clinton and the area passed away last Thursday. Don Young, who many will remember as a bartender at the Paul Revere Inn (now Lock, Dock & Barrel), was also a musician. His business expertise fo-cused on acquiring the land necessary for placement of hotels. He married Trudy Baumbarger, a former PC City Councilwoman, who survives. Don was a regular at Mayhew’s back in the 80s and 90s. He always wore a very familiar and warm smile, and always had nice things to say about The Beacon when he saw me. We shall miss him.

n Our “Find Wylie” winner this week is Dolly Neff of Port Clinton, who was one of 132 people who found our friendly fish in the ad for Magruder Hospital on page 7A in last week’s Beacon. I think we fooled some folks by putting Wylie in a black & white ad. Anyway, Dolly wins our weekly $20 gift card from Friendship Food Stores. We’ll be hiding Wylie again this week, so if you find him, drop off an entry form at our office in the Bea-con Place Business Center or click on the Find Wylie Icon at our website, www.thebeacon.net.

n The Firelands Musical Arts Series continues this Satur-day at 7:30 p.m., featuring the Arianna String Quartet. Their chamber music concert will include selections from Beethoven, Mendelssohn and Van Wyck. Follow-ing the performance, the Greater Port Clinton Area Arts Council will host a reception to meet the musicians. Tickets are available at the door for $15. Students are admitted free. Firelands Presbyterian Church is located at 2626 E. Harbor Rd. (SR 163) east of Port Clinton.

n An old family favorite, chicken and rice dinner, is on the menu this month for the ELMS Community Meal at St. Thomas Episcopal Church Guild Hall on East Second Street in Port Clinton. It is tonight, Thursday, March 20, starting at 5 p.m. Debbie Barnes is serving as head chef. Members of St. Thomas and Peace Lutheran Church will be serving up the free meals, complete with homemade desserts. Carry-outs are available and the public is welcome to enjoy lots of good food and fellow-ship. Did I mention that it is all free?

n The Marblehead Peninsula Chamber of Commerce is holding their monthly Business After Hours tonight (Thursday, March 20) from 5-7 p.m. at the Lake Erie Shores and Islands Center on SR 53. The event is host-ed by the Ottawa County Visitors Bureau, Grande Mai-son, and the Chamber. RSVP by calling 419-734-9777.

n Mary Alice and I enjoyed last Friday’s Port Clinton Knights of Columbus weekly Lenten Fish Fry. The Fish Fry is held each Friday during Lent, from 5-7:30 p.m. It was very good (except for having to pay Carl Koebel at the entrance). This year the Knights are offering a new menu, featuring all you can eat meals for $8 for adults and $4 for children under 12. The menu features hand breaded fish, French fries, coleslaw, mac & cheese, applesauce, lemonade, coffee and a variety of desserts, all included in the all you can eat price. The meals are served at the Denny Bergeman K of C Hall at 109 E. Perry Street in downtown Port Clinton.

n The St. Joseph/Marblehead Knights of Columbus will serve Perch & Pierogis on the following Fridays during Lent: March 28 and April 11 from 5-7 p.m. in the St Jo-seph Church Hall, located at 822 Barclay St. in Marble-head. Dinners are $11 and sandwiches are $6. Sides will be available as well.

n Obviously, we had to cancel last Wednesday’s “Coffee with the Editor” session at Common Grounds, due to the unwelcome snowstorm. However, we should be back on track every Wednesday at 9 a.m. Lots of inter-esting local topics are discussed. It is our opportunity to have a sit-down with our readers and learn about what you want to see in The Beacon as we enter our 32nd year of community publishing. Also, don’t forget that Common Grounds offers their gourmet coffee for just 99-cents with one refill.

n “How to protect yourself from Identity Theft” is the theme of the next “Breakfast of Champions” at Ot-terbein North Shore Retirement Community next Wednesday, March 26, starting at 9 a.m. Bill Tuttamore, President of the Marblehead Bank, will be the featured speaker, following a complimentary buffet breakfast prepared by Chef Ron. RSVP is requested by calling Kirsten at 419-798-8250.

Spring is here!

BY JASMINE CUPPThe U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has released a de-

tailed project report and environmental assessment for the Coastal Wetland Restoration Project for the City of Port Clinton. The project specifically details section 506, which is the Great Lakes Fishery and Ecosystem Restoration (GLFER) Project. The restoration would produce wetland and shoreline habitat that would be better suited for native species than what is now in place in the area.

The affected area of the project is west of City Beach on Perry Street and east of Derby Pond at Waterworks Park. The project is also set to restore the shoreline in front of Waterworks Park that reaches to the pier.

The need to protect and conserve Great Lakes coastal wetlands is an increasing concern. This is especially true in Ohio. Between 1780 and 1980 Ohio lost 90% of its wetlands. Natural and cultural practices have greatly altered the coastal wetlands of the Great Lakes and it is feared by federal agencies, state agencies and environ-mental groups that past and continued uses of the Great Lakes will lead to continued water quality problems and significant losses of rare habitats and biological diver-sity.

The coastal wetland in the projected area, which is a preserve, currently provides little quality habitat for coastal species, including migratory birds. The area now is characterized by an abundance of non-native and invasive plant species. The existing wetland is also

cut off from external sources of surface water, such as upland lake connections, that would provide adequate water input or exchange. The preserve is bordered on three sides by large areas of maintained lawn that don’t provide suitable habitat. According to the report, the proposed restoration site on Perry Street along the lake provides very few of the required habitat qualities sought by coastal and migratory species.

The restoration and expansion of the coastal wetland will enhance ecological function and provide an ad-ditional high quality migratory bird stopover habitat. The projected restoration will result in the expansion of coastal wetland habitat, increased habitat quality and improved water quality.

The report states that the Preferred Action Alterna-tive is Alternative 22, which consists of invasive species removal and revegetation, wetland expansion, creation of microtypography within wetlands and creation of a hydraulic connection between the wetlands. The total first cost for implementing the recommended plan is $2,047,800. The cost will be covered by the Army Corp of Engineers and the federal government. Any other costs will be covered in grants that the City of Port Clin-ton can earn.

After the project is completed, the cost for mainte-nance, repair, replacement and rehabilitation of the area is to be taken care of by the city. The report states the cost of maintaining the project is projected to be $15,300 per year.

Restoration project to bring native coastal species to area

BY DONNA LUEKELast Wednesday morning at Ida Rupp Pub-

lic Library in Port Clinton a group of 18 people gathered to discuss the book “The Kindness of Strangers” by Marc Freedman. The discussion focused on how Ottawa County can develop a community-wide mentorship program that endeavors to match youth one-on-one with adults who are ready to serve and support them, so our youth can realize their dreams.

The discussion was led by Debra Loiacono, Director of the library, assisted by Connie Ce-doz of the library and Chris Galvin, Area Di-rector of United Way in Ottawa County.

The opportunity to make a difference There is national interest in Ottawa County’s

desire to make a difference in the lives of its youth. Harvard Professor Robert Putnam’s New York Times article on “Crumbling American Dreams” fea-tured Port Clinton and dramatically accelerated the dis-cussion on the need to help our young people.

United Way in Ottawa County’s mentoring initiative is one of six programs nationally awarded six months of consulting services with renowned author Dan Heath of Duke’s CASE Change Academy in Durham, NC. United Way of Greater Toledo President/CEO Karen Mathison, Shanna Strouse of Benton-Carroll-Salem Schools in Oak Harbor and Galvin are the team that be-gan working with the CASE Academy in January. Heath recommended “The Kindness of Strangers” as a good way to advance the discussion.

Ida Rupp Library received a grant to partner with United Way to support and further the discussion. As stated by Connie Cedoz of the library, their commit-ment is “to do anything we can to enhance and move forward our youth.”

The needUnited Way’s Cradle to Career mapping identified the

gap for children and youth in Ottawa County. Putnam’s work and other studies have pinpointed the need. 50% of the students in Port Clinton Schools and 43% in Dan-bury Schools qualify for free and reduced-price lunch-es. This is widely accepted as a good indicator of the prevalence of poverty in a school district and a commu-nity. “Only 50% of the third graders in Ottawa County read at a third grade level,” said Cedoz.

Fritz Below pointed out that “poverty is met with ei-ther contempt or pity, both of which rob people of their dignity. We must foster a third way, which is where mentoring comes in.” It was also discussed that the stigma of success in school can be a problem for kids, something that sets them apart. Mentors can help change that message.

Sound OffDevelopment is like casino gambling

On March 11 Port Clinton City Council was presented with an impossibly optimistic economic impact study for the proposed Waterworks Park development. The Ottawa County Improve-ment Corporation and First-Energy made a presentation based on a computer software program called IMPLAN®, data from the area and the project was fed into a computer and out popped the numbers.

According to the numbers fed into the IMPLAN® software the city would collect, after time, $7.8 million dollars in property, sales, income and bed taxes per year. The State of Ohio, after time, would collect $4 million dollars in taxes. Now that seems like a lot of taxes, but they surely won’t be coming from the sup-posed 585 people making an av-erage yearly income of $18,803 because they don’t pay very much in taxes, nor will they have any money to spend the

new development. This sounds like the “rich get richer” from our Waterworks Park and to quote former Judge Moon “we are all the poorer for it”.

Mayor Vince Leone asked if the software was proven in other communities, if there were examples of other projects showing its reliability. Council-man Aukerman identified the “poverty level” incomes of the new jobs created and asked if the study could tell us what ad-ditional costs there will be to support our community. Coun-cilman Snider unfortunately said the wrong thing,”earliest possible timeframe” which sounded like a rush to judg-ment. Our newest at-large councilman, Lisa Sarty, loved the “black and white” informa-tion. Unfortunately, it’s not that easy and we may all be seeing red if you make the wrong de-cision.

In theory people are rational and they make complete cal-culations to reach the right and wise decision. In reality people make decisions with personal biases that find a way into the process of decision-making. City Council needs to recog-nize and avoid these personal biases--the selective search for evidence, the premature termi-nation of search for evidence, source credibility bias, selective perception, prejudice, wishful thinking, optimism, choice-supportive bias, incremental decision making and escalating commitment, underestimat-ing uncertainty, the illusion of control, group think and peer pressure.

According to the March 7 News-Herald article “Casino Revenues Fall Short”, during Ohio’s first year with four op-erating casinos, revenues are $1 billion dollars short of cam-paign promises, leaving county and school officials with sig-nificantly smaller tax payouts. (Hope Port Clinton City Schools was not relying on that money to build a new school). Alan Sil-ver, a gambling industry expert and Ohio University assistant professor, said there was noth-ing nefarious about casinos’ promises. Predicting revenue for a new industry is simply dif-ficult to do, he said. “Anytime you do studies, you’re shoot-ing in the sky,” Silver said. Rob Walgate, vice president of the anti-gambling American Policy Roundtable thinks what “we’ve seen is a lot of false promises here. They can’t hit the numbers that they promised. They lied.”

The State of Ohio in its desire for a better economy made de-cisions based on quantitative data to allow gambling in the State. According to the Ameri-can Gaming Association, the gaming industry relies on the well-known and widely used IMPLAN® Model for economic impact studies.

So developing Waterworks Park is a lot like casino gam-bling if you’re betting on the numbers. The message to Port Clinton is the numbers don’t lie, they just fall short.

Earned Income Tax Credit

As the Area Director of United Way in Ottawa County and as a member of the Board of Trustees of WSOS Community Action, I wanted to share my support for Governor Kasich’s proposal to expand the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) program in Ohio. Both organizations work with low and moderate income peo-ple in our community to help them achieve financial stability.

Despite having jobs, many low income people struggle to make ends meet. With the costs of housing, transportation, food and medical care continuously rising, people in lower paying jobs need to be able to hold onto the wages they earn. The EITC program does this. Expanding this program will not only help low income citizens to make ends meet, but will also stimu-late the economy.

I would like to commend the Governor for proposing to ex-pand this proven-successful program and encourage our leg-islators to pass this expansion. I hope that your readers agree and will also contact their leg-islators asking them to support expansion of the EITC program.

Sincerely,Christine K. GalvinArea Director

Join the SwitchConnie Cedoz will lead a discussion of the book Switch by Dan and Chip Heath April 2 at 9:30 a.m. at the library. The community is encouraged to read this best-selling book.

Dan Heath, co-author with his brother Chip of #1 New York Times Best Seller “Switch-How to change things when change is hard”, has made a generous gift to Ottawa County residents who want to help enhance the future of our youth. In response to a discussion with and request from Chris Galvin of United Way in Ottawa County, and in support of the Ottawa County Mentoring Initiative, Heath has donated 100 copies of “Switch”.

About “Switch”, from the book’s jacket information: “In a compelling, story-driven narrative, the Heaths bring together decades of counterintuitive research in psychology, sociology, and other fields to shed new light on how we can effect transformative change. ‘Switch’ shows that successful changes follow a pattern, a pattern you can use to make the changes that matter to you, whether that interest is in changing the world or changing your waistline.”

The first 100 Ottawa County residents to join the Initiative will receive a free copy of “Switch”. Other copies are available on loan. To get on the list, email Ida Rupp Public Library at [email protected], stop in at the library, call 419.732.3212 or go to www.idarupp.org.

When and how“What is working in Oak Harbor is school-based, taking

adults to the kids,” said Galvin. Loiacono added that the li-brary is another good meeting place for kids and adults.

Social media, such as Facebook postings, can be a way for mentors to stay connected to kids. “Kids trust social media. Perhaps that is a good way to start, with Facebook or Insta-gram to build trust,” offered Joan Hany.

Brad Hall contributed that not everyone can invest in long-term mentoring a child. “We need a holistic mentoring ap-proach, a variety of ways of mentoring.” The consensus is that strong training is needed for the mentors. Mentoring can’t be “parachuting in” and leaving. Just showing up is very impor-tant for the child and the mentor.

“To be able to talk to someone close to their own age can be a great help,” offered former teacher Lorrie Grentzer.

Though it is never too late to support youth, the general consensus is that beginning a mentoring program in sixth grade is optimum. In the sixth grade, students are still im-pressionable.

“The difference-making factor is that in successful children, someone has been encouraging them,” said Galvin. “The chal-

lenge is how we can provide this for our kids. The goals are that all students graduate on time, that they know what is available for them and that they have support to sustain their further education.”

“Scouting and 4-H can provide kids with a broad spectrum of experiences and teach self-motivation,” said Meridith Beck. Galvin added that there are scouting alumni associa-tions that could be involved.

With phones and social media, snowbirds are not excluded from mentoring. There is a group working through United Way on ways that those who leave the area for the winter can be part of the program.

“In changing a child’s life, they change your life,” said Loi-acono.

Mathison added, “Caring adults help give kids hope. We can surround kids with hope and high expectations.”

Next stepsGalvin challenged the group to take the next steps:• We need to create community will for the program• If there is another word for mentoring, what would it be?• How do we use technology to bridge the gap?• How do we look at scouting and 4-H to be involved?• What are the levels of mentoring we are going to devel-

op?• Invite someone to help with the mentoring program by

reaching out through social media.• Do you know the kids in your neighborhood?• Become familiar with the Search Institute’s Develop-

mental Assets

United Way will be funding three people to go to the Search Institute Train the Teacher Training May 1 and 2 in Minneap-olis. The Institute’s 40 research-based, positive qualities that influence young people’s development, helping them become caring, responsible, and productive adults, has become the most widely used approach to positive youth development. For more information on the institute, go to www.search-in-stitute.org. The information and ideas from Wednesday’s dis-cussion will be taken to the Ottawa County Community Solu-tions team to develop a mentoring “find a friend” program.

April 9 from 1-3 p.m. at Ottawa County Fairgrounds United Way and Ottawa County Housing Collaborative will be host-ing a C.O.P.E. (Cost of Poverty Experience). 80 people will have the opportunity to experience what it is like to deal with the issues that the poor have to face.

KINDNESS from COVER

BY JASMINE CUPPOn March 17 at 10 a.m. Ohio State Repre-

sentative Chris Redfern held a bi-monthly town meeting at the Ida Rupp Public Library. Two Port Clinton city council members, a Portage Township trustee, and a school su-perintendent and treasurer were just a few people in attendance at the open forum meeting.

The first topic for discussion, a widely known hot topic for Port Clinton residents, was Waterworks Park and the development of that area. Redfern said that he and Senator Randy Gardner have had discussions about the project and they agree that something needs to be done to further the future of Port Clinton just as surrounding places such as Huron and Sandusky have done.

“We are here to help you with what you need,” said Redfern. “There are programs out there to help fund these projects. We are here to back you.”

Redfern did heed a warning about the proj-ect, though.

“If we apply, we ought not to walk it back,” said Redfern. “We might not get a third of forth chance at this.” He continued, “Person-al feelings aside, you went before and got this money and then didn’t use it. If you go back again, you better have your act together.”

Another hot topic and growing concern was discussed; agricultural runoff. Redfern

said that next week the house is voting on legislation that would strengthen the De-partment of Agriculture and farmers’ rela-tionship towards education. Anyone who purchases fertilizer in bulk will have to go through an education program.

“This will not change overnight,” said Red-fern. “The Lake Erie watershed is thousands of square miles, it will take time. There are 300 different types of soil in Ohio. Each ditch, every tributary needs to be treated with the upmost importance. Lake Erie doesn’t just begin down the river in Oak Harbor, it starts at the watershed: Upper Sandusky, Canton, etc. Everything north from the watershed flows into the lake.”

The controversial wind turbines along the lake shore were another topic on the table. A resident brought up that the guidelines for citing of wind turbines are voluntary. She wanted to know what action could be taken to make these guidelines universal across the board so this kind of situation can’t happen.

“The project has been halted,” said Redfern, “because not only the state government but, more importantly, the federal government spoke up saying that the turbines could hurt protected species.”

Chris Redfern holds town meetings throughout his districts, Erie and Ottawa Counties, so he can listen to constituents’’ ideas, questions and concerns.

Tristan Auxter earns rank of Eagle Scout

Tristan Oliver Auxter has obtained the prestigious rank of Eagle Scout from the Boy Scouts of America. He is a member of Troop 360 in Port Clinton which is spon-sored by Trinity United Methodist Church. Tristan joined scouts in first grade as a Ti-ger Scout with Cub Scout Pack 361 of St. John Lutheran Church. He finished Cub Scouting by earning the Arrow of Light. In becoming an Eagle Scout it has afforded many learning and leadership opportuni-ties for Tristan. He has earned 34 merit badges, served as Patrol Leader, Assistant Patrol Leader, Senior Patrol Leader, As-

sistant Senior Patrol Lead-er, Scribe and Bugler. In complet-ing an Eagle Scout project, Tristan has gained many lifelong skills.

The Eagle Scout project Tristan chose was to add outside fea-tures to the communi ty garden lo-cated at 323 Beech Street in Port Clin-ton. Planning and approval for the project started in the fall of 2012. Tristan was responsible for designing,

p l a n n i n g , fund raising over $650 in materials and coordi-nating over 158 hours of labor. He oversaw the c o n s t r u c -tion of two eight foot h a n d i c a p a c c e s s i b l e picnic tables, building of a 16’x16’ patio, two cedar trash cans and holders and a shelf used for storage in the park’s storage shed which was completed in May of 2013.

Tristan then spent the fall writing a re-quired, detailed manuscript of the project to bring before the board for final approv-al. After local council approval, the manu-script went to the national level for final review. Tristan will be honored at an Eagle Scout Court of Honor Sunday, March 23 at St. John Lutheran Church.

This project couldn’t have been accom-plished without the support from friends, family, fellow scouts and leaders, the City of Port Clinton, Mayor Leone, Larry Cline, John Folger, Dave Mehl (with special men-tion to the Order of Eagles #2295) and Jeanne Auxter.

Tristan is a sophomore at Port Clinton High School. He is a member of the Lead-ership Council, football, swimming and tennis teams, and band all while main-taining honor roll status. Tristan is the son of Kim and Angela Auxter.

NEW!

Coach Troy Diels met with his team following the last boys’ basketball game to tell them it would be his last as the Redskins basketball coach. He has coached bas-ketball at Port Clinton High School for the past nine years. Mr. Diels will remain with the Port Clinton City School District as the Assistant Middle School Principal. Port Clinton High School Principal Gary Steyer said, “Coach Diels has been a positive influence in the lives of our student-athletes and has made ma-jor contributions to our boys’ basketball program. We appreciate what he has meant to our students and how he has supported them throughout their bas-ketball careers as well as in their personal lives.” Diels will long be remembered as leading the Port Clin-

ton Redskins to their 20-1 season in 2010. That journey sparked re-newed Redskin spirit in the Port Clinton community. The team went on to be the 2010 state run-ner-up. In addition, Diel’s teams had one SBC championship, three sectional titles, one district and one regional championship.

“I have decided that it is time to step down as head coach,” said

Coach Diels. “There are a lot of little factors as to why, but above all I think the time is right for a change. I want to thank the Board Of Education, Mr. Adkins and the high

school administration for allowing me the opportunity to be the head coach over the last nine years. I consider it an honor and a privilege to have been the head coach at Port Clinton and I will forever cherish the bonds that I have with my former players and well as my coaching staff.” Diels will now have more time to spend with his wife Marianne and their three children.

Patrick Adkins, Superintendent of Schools, added, “Coach Diels brought more than just basketball knowl-edge to our program. He has played a vital role in the lives of our student athletes not only while they were in high school but beyond. He has been a positive role model and will be missed considerably.”

Coach Diels resigns from Redskin basketball

After being recognized with Division III District Honors two weeks ago, Oak Harbor’s Tom Kontak and Andrea Cecil did one better last week, earning All-Ohio honors for girls basketball for their performance during the 2013-14 season. Kontak, now in his second season with the Rockets, was named the Co-Coach of the Year, along with Andover Py-matuning Valley’s Jeff Compan and New Lebanon Dixie’s Jared Crowe, after leading Oak Harbor to a 20-5 record, an appearance in the district finals and a second-place finish in the Sandusky Bay Conference. He is 36-13 in two years with the Rockets after go-ing 91-44 in six seasons at Genoa (2004-10). “What I’d like to think, over time, is we’ve been doing this long enough for people to recognize (our accomplishments),” Kontak said. “You have to win, that’s part of the equation. Hopefully, we’ve won (and) we’ve won the right way. We’ve won with great kids who compete hard and are grateful to compete for the opportunity (to compete) for their school. That’s what I like about this group. We’ll have to work hard to improve, and that commitment will be the x-factor.”

Alongside Emma Barney, Amanda Het-rick, Athena Eli and Maddy Rathbun, Ce-cil led Oak Harbor to an 18-4 record in the

regular season before the Rockets defeated Margaretta (59-31) for its first sectional title in six years. The Rockets beat Bucyrus (54-48) in the district semifinal before fall-ing, 40-37, to Bucyrus Wynford on a 25-foot shot at the buzzer.

Because Oak Harbor has played so well recently, they’re starting to get recognition from other teams around the state. In fact, the Rockets will compete in the McDon-ald’s Holiday Tournament at Lima Bath High School

on Dec. 29-30 with some other great teams--Lima Bath, Lima Central Catholic and Minster; and later this sum-mer, Oak Harbor will join some of the state’s best teams in The Battle of Fort Stephenson, a tournament that will take place at the Fremont Rec Center on July 27-28. The 16-team tournament, which is being organized by Clyde head coach John Cahill, includes Clyde, Shaker Hts. Ha-thaway Brown, Whitmer and Central Catholic.

New opportunities for youth soccer are coming to PC

BY YANEEK SMITHFollowing their 72-69 loss to Michigan on Saturday in

the Big Ten Tournament Semifinals, the Ohio State Buckeyes were named the 6 seed in the South Region of the NCAA Tournament.

Ohio State (25-9) will match up with Dayton (23-10), a school located just 75 miles from OSU’s campus. Despite their close proximity to one another, it is just the second time the teams have met in the last 26 years, the other coming in 2008 in the National Invitational Tournament. This game is actually the first one of the first round of the tournament, coming at 12:15 p.m. on Thursday on CBS. The game will take place in Buffalo and the winner will face either Syracuse (27-5) or Western Michigan (23-9), the champions of the Mid-American Conference, in the second round. The Broncos defeated Toledo, 98-77, in the MAC Tournament Final last Saturday to earn a spot in the NCAAs.

Dayton’s head coach, Archie Miller, and one of his assistants, Kevin Kuwik, previously served as assistants under Thad Matta at Ohio State. The Flyers’ leading scorer, Jordan Siebert, was a part of the Buckeye team in ‘12 that advanced to the Final Four. Dayton, which finished tied for fifth in the Atlantic 10 with a 10-6 mark, has beaten some good teams this year, notably Saint Louis, Gonzaga and California. Most recently, the Flyers lost to St. Joseph’s, 70-67, in the quarterfinals of the A-10 Tournament on Friday.

After finishing the regular season with a win over Michigan State, the Buckeyes defeated Purdue (63-61) and Nebraska (71-67) in the conference tournament before falling to Michigan.

It will be a contrast in styles between the two teams, seeing as Dayton (73.4 ppg) is more known for its offense while Ohio State, which allows just 59.8 points per game, is 12th in the nation in scoring defense.

Ohio State earns No. 6 seed in NCAA Tournament

The so-called “experts” are simply misinformed!

Newspapers are dead?Over the last 15 years, since the proliferations of the internet, paid circulation newspapers have seen their subscriptions drop dramatically, up to 8% per year. That is why you hear “Newspapers are dead”. That’s the bad news. The good news is FREE community papers, like The Beacon, have had ZERO reduction in circulation and readership! Our latest audit shows that nearly 80% of the households who get The Beacon READ The Beacon. PLUS The Beacon is read by over 2 individuals per household. So, while the daily papers have suffered, the FREE communities weeklies like The Beacon have thrived. And better yet The Beacon’s Web Site just gets better and better, updated every day with new community news items. The Beacon was “Hyper-Local” before the term was coined!

So, when you hear “Newspapers are dead” ... don’t believe it! Community papers are alive and well, thank you! And our Web Sites are great as well because we don’t have to worry about losing readership to our own Web Site. All you have to do is sit back and read your weekly Beacon and stay informed about the “good news” happening every day.
