The Ohio-Kentucky-IndianaRegional Council of Govern-ments planned the event as firstin a series of three meetings tostart OKIs Ky. 536 ScopingStudy, which will identifychanges needed to improvesafety.

Safety is the foremost con-cern, said Kenton CountyJudge-executive Kris Knochel-

mann, who also serves as secondvice president of the OKI boardof directors and project devel-opment team chair for the study.

This stretch of road has oneof the regions highest crashrates more than three times thestatewide average. It also hasdrastic elevation changes andpoor sight lines which can maketravel through the area chal-lenging and hazardous to driv-ers, particularly in poor weath-er, Knochelmann said. Its ourobligation to identify improve-ments that will ensure a continu-ous, efficient and safe flow oftraffic across the Ky. 536 corri-dor.

Parents getting their stu-dents to opt out of CommonCore tests is unheard of inNorthern Kentucky school dis-tricts and forbidden by stateeducation officials.

Kentucky was the first U.S.state to adopt Common Core in2010. Kentucky EducationCommissioner Terry Holliday,upon hearing about public callsfor parents to file an opt-out fortheir child from CommonCore, sent a letter to all schooldistricts in April 2014.

In Kentucky, districts areunder no obligation to honor aparents request to opt out ofthe Common Core State Stan-dards, curriculum or testing,Holliday wrote in his letter.

A March 10 Enquirer articledetailed how parents are opt-ing out of Common Core inOhio.

A check of Northern Ken-tucky school districts told adifferent story. The Communi-ty Recorder asked officials ifparents and students are seek-ing to avoid Common Coretests. The answer was no.

Not so fast, says Terry Do-noghue of KentuckiansAgainst Common Core.

Kentucky is not the only

state with a policy forbiddingan opt-out of Common Core,but parents constitutionalrights allow them to do what isright for their children, Do-noghue said.

They have no right to stopthat, he said.

No Common Core opt-outs in NKY schoolsCommunity Recorder

to improve access, mo-bility and economic vi-tality through NorthernKentucky. Improve-ments have alreadybeen identified for mostof the roadway and workis in varying stages ofplanning, design and im-plementation.

However, improve-ments have not yet beendetermined for the por-tion that extends be-tween Ky. 17, or MadisonPike, in Independenceand the Campbell Coun-ty line.

This 6.5-mile seg-ment of Ky. 536 is theonly remaining sectionof the entire corridorthat does not have a pre-ferred alternative or im-provement plan in place.This segment was leftuntil last because of itsfragmented connec-tions, drastic elevationchanges, poor sightlines, broad range of en-vironmental factors,and, most importantly,extremely high crashrates, according to Ro-byn Bancroft, the scop-ing studys project man-ager.

As the study pro-gresses, informationwill be posted on OKIswebsite,www.oki.org/536.

Independence hasbeen the fastest-grow-ing city in Kenton Coun-ty over the past decade,and the forecast is forthis strong growth tocontinue, said Inde-pendence Mayor andOKI Board MemberChris Reinersmann.Ky. 536 is vital to im-proving access and safe-ty to key residential, em-ployment, and commer-cial destinationsthroughout NorthernKentucky.

A national United OptOut website available atbit.ly/1Dt70v5 gives par-ents guidance to file a civilrights complaint against aprincipal or administratorfor stopping an parentsopt-out request, the He-bron resident said.

Boone County Schoolshas received zero re-quests to opt out of testing,and if Boone officials re-ceived such requests, theywould not be granted.

Exemptions are justnot allowed, said BenLusk, Boones director ofassessment.

All Boone County ad-ministrators, teachersand coaches received aletter from the district of-fice before school startedin August explaining dis-tricts are under no obliga-tion to honor a parents re-quest to opt out of theCommon Core State Stan-dards, curriculum or test-ing.

Weve had 100 percentparticipation since timeimmemorial, Lusk said.

I do not know of a sin-gle instance where a par-ent or student deliberate-ly evaded state testing orCommon Core, said Da-

vid Rust, director of aca-demic services for Belle-vue Independent Schools.

Rust said he alsodoesnt have records ofstudents missing the en-tire five-day window ofstate testing and then nottaking a makeup test.

Campbell CountySchools has not receivedany requests to opt out oftesting, according to anemail from Connie Pohl-geers, district spokes-woman. Some studentshave been granted state-approved exemptions forextraordinary medicalcircumstances from tak-ing state tests, Pohlgeerssaid.

Fort Thomas Indepen-dent Schools Superinten-dent Gene Kirchner saidhe is not aware of any re-quests to opt out of Com-mon Core. No situationswhere a student was sickand didnt make up a testhave happened either,Kirchner said.

This has not been anissue in our district, hesaid.

According to JessDykes, Kenton CountySchools director of publicrelations and communityengagement, no exemp-tions will be made when itcomes to Common Coretesting because it isagainst state policy.

We dont have any par-ents asking, she said. Wedo get requests from allover the nation from otherdistricts to visit our dis-trict to see how well (Com-mon Core) is workinghere. Its been very suc-cessful.

The Erlanger-ElsmereSchool District hasnt re-ceived any requests fromparents to opt out of test-ing either, according toRosemary WeathersBurnham who handlespublic relations for thedistrict. In addition, shesaid, there is no exampleof students attempting toavoid testing.

Jamee Flaherty, direc-tor of curriculum, instruc-tion and assessment, saidBeechwood IndependentSchools has not receivedany formal opt-out re-quests from parents relat-ed to Common Core test-ing. Students haventavoided the testing either.

Students in our dis-trict take state assess-ments seriously, Flaher-ty said. Testing is an op-portunity for the studentsto demonstrate the knowl-edge and understandinggained throughout theyear.

WALTON Almost ayear after Angelo andGus Soulas opened Ange-los Family Restaurant inIndependence, theyveannounced their nextventure: Bringing backWaltons Dairy Delight.

The building, on 0.55acres at 188 North MainSt., was well-known as anice cream parlor andsandwich shop, but fa-ther and son restaura-teurs Angelo and GusSoulas have really onlyseen it sitting vacant.

For a while, about twoyears ago, someone oper-ated a partial season inthere, selling sandwichesand ice cream in the sum-mer, but it didnt lastlong, said Gus Soulas.My parents live in Wal-ton, and we actuallylooked there before welooked here. Then, we gotwrapped up in this place,but my dad kept passingit every day and it kept

eating at him. Hes 74years old, and he cant sitstill.

Soulas expects to openin March or April, and hewants to keep the DairyDelight name.

We have a lot of workto do there before we canopen up, but we want tomake this happen, hesaid.

The father and sonteam know the Dairy De-light has a long history,but they dont know verymuch about it.

It seems people real-ly like the idea. Peoplewere approaching uswith questions before weeven signed the papers.We know they had the BigEd, a hamburger that wasout before the Big Boy,Soulas said. We want todo something similar towhat they had there. Welldo the creamy whip.

He said if anyone has acopy or photo of the origi-nal menu, or any histori-cal photos of the restau-rant, hed love to seethem.

Photos can be sharedon Angelos Family Res-taurant Facebook page.Soulas said hed also liketo hear about what peoplewould like to eat at thenew location.

Whatever they want,

thats what we want togive them, he said. Itwont be as extensive aswhat we do here, but itshould be fun. We have alot of ideas.

Soulas said hes think-ing about serving pizzaand specialty hot dogs,gyros, and ultimate load-ed waffle fries.

Walton City Adminis-trator Connie Goins saidshe was thrilled theSoulas family is going toreinvigorate the DairyDelight.

Its exciting, shesaid.

Soulas said he hasstarted testing ice cream,and added an ice creamsundae bar to the Inde-pendence restaurant.

Kids really love it. Itsbeen very popular, hesaid.

The ice cream, and theIndependence restau-rant, will stay aroundeven after the new res-taurant opens.

We really love itdown here. We love beinga part of this communi-ty, he said. Were not go-ing anywhere. Wevemade a lot of really goodfriends, and we have a lotof support behind us.

If theres nobodyshome, they will kick in thedoor if there is no an-swer, Surber said.

If someone does an-swer, burglars dont al-ways run away, he said.

Usually, theyre try-ing to make some kind ofexcuse like they need di-rections, Surber said.

A burglar eventuallycaught in previous yearseven wore a hard hat andcarried a clipboard sayinghe was with the phonecompany when confront-ed, Surber said.

Police have no specificsuspects in the attemptedburglaries, and are look-ing for potential connec-tions with reported bur-glaries, Surber said.

My favorite cookie sheet isdecades old. It cost a lot lessthan my restaurant quality

sheets which Ibought yearslater. When I usethat old cookiesheet, I findmyself smiling,rememberingwhen my boyswere little andhow they shapedcookie doughinto worms,tanks and bugsto bake on it.

Thats a piece of equipmentwith a history.

Whenever I have a speakingengagement about food orfamily, I like to ask partici-

pants what their most trea-sured kitchen item is. It seemslike just about everybody has afavorite utensil, pot, or gadget.Mine is my mothers sifter,one lady said. Another men-tioned rolling pans from grand-ma. One young person I men-tored treasured his dadsapron: He wore that apronevery time he cooked dinner onthe grill. Now I wear it, hesaid.

So dont get rid of that well-loved kitchen item when youreplace it with new. Pass itdown to keep the traditions andmemories going.

Mike, a Clermont Countyreader, needs a recipe fordairy-free rolls that are suit-able for diabetics. Heres a

good one. I baked these on myold cookie sheet and theyturned out just fine.

Can you help?Great Scotts chowder:

Trish M. remembers this chow-der fondly. Great Scott restau-rant made the best potato, cornand jalapeno chowder. I'vetried to duplicate it but it's justnot the same. I know they haveclosed but is there any chanceyou can get the recipe? It wasone of our families favorites.

These plump dinner rolls are dairy and egg free.

Dairy free, egg free dinner rolls

Powdered creamer is used by more than a few bakers to achieve anice tasting, dairy-free dinner roll. I was surprised myself at how wellthese turned out. They tasted as good as my higher fat rolls. Nice along-side that Easter ham. These freeze well after baking.

Diabetic exchange: The diabetic exchange is 1-1/2 starch, 1/2 fat foreach roll. You can make these by hand or machine.

1 tablespoon rapid rise yeast plus a couple pinches sugar2-1/4 cups warm water (110-115 degrees)1/3 cup sugar1/3 shortening1/4 cup powdered nondairy creamer2-1/4 teaspoons salt5-6 cups bread flour

Preheat oven to 350. Dissolve yeast and pinches of sugar in warmwater. In a mixing bowl, add sugar, shortening, creamer, salt and 5 cupsflour. Add yeast and mix well on low speed. Turn to medium and beatuntil smooth. Add more flour if necessary to make a soft, but stickydough. Either knead it for 6-8 minutes by machine or by hand. If doingby hand, turn out on floured surface. Knead until smooth, like a babysbottom.

Place in bowl coated with cooking spray, turning once to coat top.Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch down and turn outonto lightly floured surface; divide into 18-24 pieces. Shape each pieceinto a roll. Place 2 inches apart on sprayed baking sheets. Cover and letrise until doubled, 30-45 minutes. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until lightgolden brown.

Fruited chicken salad from Lazarus

I have a file of department store restaurant recipes. As happensoccasionally, someone stopped me at the grocery and asked if I had arecipe for this particular one. Anyway, heres the recipe with my sidenotes, from the Columbus store, I believe.

SaladMix together:

4 cups cooked chicken, cubed or chunked up8 oz. diced dates1 cup diced pineapple -- drained1 cup diced celery1/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted if you want

DressingWhisk together:

2 cups Miracle Whip salad dressing1 teaspoon sugar1/4 cup evaporated milk2 tablespoons lemon juiceJuice from pineapple -- as needed

Pour dressing over salad and toss gently. This would be nice servedatop a lettuce leaf.

Diabetics can enjoy dinner rolls, too

A publication of

With just two legislativedays remaining in the 2015Regular Session of the Ken-tucky General Assembly, thefate of several major pieces oflegislation the House Major-itys efforts to shore up theKentucky Teachers Retire-ment System (KTRS) andreduce heroin addiction nowrest in the fate of conferencecommittees.

When it comes to illegaldrug use, few states havebeen hit as hard as Kentuckyover the last 15 years. Its us-age has grown dramatically,and not just in Kentucky. Ear-lier this month, the U.S. Cen-ters for Disease Control andPrevention reported that over-dose deaths attributed to thisdrug have gone up 400 per-cent nationally between 2000and 2013. For the Midwest, therate was 1,100 percent.

During thesession, Houseand Senatemembers havebeen workingon what we allhope will beanothergroundbreak-ing law. Lastweek when weadjourned forthe veto peri-od, I was

named to the conference com-mittee who will be meeting tofinish the job prior to ourconstitutionally mandateddeadline. The House bill thatwe passed last week proposesmuch harsher penalties forthose bringing heroin intoKentucky while expandingtreatment for the addicts. Pastlessons have taught us that wecannot incarcerate ourselves

out of this problem. The Ken-tucky Catholic Conferenceand Texas-based researchgroup Right on Crime haveendorsed parts of our heroineffort.

I have been an outspokenadvocate for the Good Samar-itan law and a local-optionneedle exchange program thatallows counties to opt out offor hardship reasons if neces-sary. Nearly two dozen statesalready have this in place. Tohelp get these programs upand running as soon as pos-sible, the House proposalrecommends shifting $10 mil-lion in the current two-yearbudget to these new pro-grams. We cannot afford towait until the next budgetcycle.

Were also nearing anagreement with the Senate onlegislation I filed that would

expand the use of ignitioninterlocks for convicted DUIoffenders. The measure wouldsupplement hardship licenses special licenses allowingpeople with suspended li-censes to drive to work,school and doctors appoint-ments with ignition inter-locks, a device about the sizeof a mobile phone that iswired into the ignition systemof a vehicle. In the 24 statesthat have adopted the inter-lock program, deaths causedby drunken drivers have beenreduced by 30 percent. Ac-cording to Mothers AgainstDrunk Driving (MADD), therewere 167 drunk driving deathsin Kentucky in the recentyear. Thats 50 lives that couldhave been saved in one yearhad these provisions been inplace.

Two other important pieces

of legislation are still possiblefor next weeks final two days;these include stabilizing thestates highway funding andstrengthen the long-term fu-ture for the Kentucky Teach-ers Retirement System.

And finally, the House andSenate both passed the Breed-ers Cup tax incentive HB 134that I sponsored and will besigned by the gvernor thisweek. This legislation is im-portant because of the signifi-cant, multi-million dollar eco-nomic impact on tourism-related activities that comefrom hosting the BreedersCup in Kentucky. The Breed-ers Cup will return to Ken-tucky for the first time since2011.

CIVIC INVOLVEMENT

Most of us have probablyexperienced a sense of aggrava-tion when we go to a store orrestaurant and see people whoappear to be specimens of goodhealth parking in the handicap

spots close tothe store orrestaurant.

Some ofthose individ-uals are nothandicappedand do nothave a handi-cap sticker orthey may beabusing the useof the stickerthat belongs tosomeone else.

Perhaps you have been temptedto park in a handicap spot. TheKentucky General Assemblyhas addressed this problem andit may be helpful to review thesubstantial penalties that can beimposed for a violation of thehandicap parking laws.

The fine for parking illegallyin a parking space designatedfor those with disabilities is 10times more than it used to be.The fine is now $250 per occur-rence. When you add in the newtraffic court cost, a defendant islooking at total fines of approxi-mately $400. Those are certain-ly substantial penalties thatshould make people think twice.

The handicap parking lawsstate that 90 percent of thefines collected are forwarded tothe states Personal Care Assis-tance Program. The remaining

10 percent is distributed equallyamong all local law enforce-ment agencies in the county. .

Handicapped parking per-mits can be obtained on a tem-porary or permanent basis. Toobtain a temporary handicapparking permit, an applicationform needs to be filed at thecounty clerks office for aninitial three-month periodwhich can be renewed for anadditional three months. Proofof the disability must be provid-ed through a statement from alicensed physician that theapplicant is a person whosemobility, flexibility, coordina-tion, respiration, or perceptive-ness is significantly reduced bya temporary disability. Uponsubmitting an application andproof of permanent disability, apermanent handicap parkingpermit can also be obtainedfrom the county clerk.

The disability placard mustbe placed so that it can beviewed from the front or rearof the vehicle, preferably byhanging on the rearview mirror.It is illegal to display a placardwhen the person with the dis-ability is not in the vehicle.

If you have topics you wouldlike to have covered in thiscolumn, please contact myoffice by e-mail at [email protected], by phone at491-7700 or by mail addressedto 319 York St., Newport, KY41071.

And that depth camethrough, propelling the Camelsto a 14-3 run to close the first halfand lift Campbell to an 89-57 winover district rival Scott in the 10thRegion final at Mason County.

I always thought when I tookover five years ago that thiswould be the year we had achance, Russell said. Last yearwas kind of a surprise: We cameout and had an unbelievable tour-nament. This year I felt we couldwin it. Weve been ready. Wevebeen working all year to getready for tournament time andIm really proud of our kids.

The Camels (25-9) repeat as

regional champions.It feels amazing, said Jack-

son, who had 21 points. Werenot satisfied. We want to go downto Rupp and make some noise.We have some experience nowso when we go there it wont beanything new.

Jackson, Campbells seniorguard, had 13 points in the firsthalf as the Camels built a 30-23lead. It was a half that had al-

ready featured several runs. TheCamels quickly sprinted out to a9-0 lead three minutes into thegame. Scott tied the game at 16late in the first period, then theCamels struck back with a 12-2spurt to lead at 28-18.

The Eagles put together amini-run at 5-2 and trailed 30-23when Jackson was called for acharging foul with less than fourminutes to play in the second

quarter, his third foul. Matt Wil-son, Campbells 6-foot-8 juniorcenter, was already on the benchwith two fouls.

The Eagles couldnt converton offense on their next trip, andsenior Blake Losey respondedwith a 3-pointer for the Camels tomake the lead 33-23. The runcontinued until Campbell held a20-point lead at 44-24. Anotherthree by Losey and one by senior

Jordan Day punctuated the run,and Jake Franzen and CraigNeltner scored key layups.

When I came out, I was frus-trated but I knew my team coulddo it without me. Were a team,we play together and we play de-fense, Jackson said. I wantedto set the tone and set the energy.Ihad a pretty bad game last night(in the semis) and I wanted to setthe energy for my team andforce them to guard me so Blakeand Matt would be open allgame.

The spreading out of scoringcontinued in the third period.Cole Hegyi scored consecutivebuckets to push the Camels totheir largest lead at that point, 23(55-32), then Losey added twofree throws for a 25-point mar-gin. Hegyi had eight points onthe night.

Hegyi, Day and Neltner com-bined for 20 points in 46 minutesoff the bench.

All three of them have beenplaying big minutes for us in thistournament I cant say enough

LEXINGTON, Ky. In pastyears, Austin Myers was at leasta little disappointed when hedidnt pin his opponent.

As he got closer to history,winning was the only thing thatmattered, and the CampbellCounty High School senior didntmind that his final high schoolmatch went the distance.

Myers beat Brandon Reed ofIroquois 15-4 in the KHSAA statechampionship match at 220pounds March 11 at Alltech Are-na. He finished 60-0 for the sea-son, winning his fourth state titleand finishing undefeated for hisentire high-school career in Ken-tucky.

I did my goal, four-time statechamp, he said. Its alwayswhat I wanted to do since I was akid. Every kid wants to be a four-time state champ.

Among his five wins in thetournament, Myers had two ex-tremely quick wins of 12 andnine seconds. He pinned one op-ponent in the second period. Hisquarterfinal foe was ranked sec-ond in the state by KentuckyW-restling.com, and Myers shuthim out for a 16-0 technical falldecision.

In the finals against Reed, hisfoes main priority seemed to beplaying defense and preventingMyers from getting him on hisback. All four of his points camewhen Myers let him free for aone-point escape, and Reed wasunable to try any offensivemoves on Myers.

Most people who wrestle me,they just want to try to make itthrough the match, Myers said.

He was stalling a little bit, butIm used to it. He did a good job.

Myers said he was enjoyinghimself during the tournament,and during the meet he seemedto smile more often than themore serious-minded competi-tors throughout the state.

You have to have fun with itor you really wont do it, he said.Thats why kids sign up forwrestling, to have fun. As long asyoure winning, youre havingfun. I knew I was getting closerto achieving my dream.

Myers has a busy season com-ing up in the sport, with threeseparate out-of-state competi-tions coming up in the nextmonth. Next school year, he willattend West Virginia University,part of a 12-member recruitingclass that is ranked fifth in thenation, he said.

Myers will miss his time withthe Camels. Ill remember wewon the team title my freshmanyear, he said. Every year hasbeen a great year for our team.Its a dream come true. Ill al-ways remember my teammates.We have a lot of fun.

The Camels finished fourth inthe team standings and had fiveother state placers.

Two Campbell County wres-tlers started the night by fallingin their state championshipmatches. Sophomore TannerYenter (51-10), ranked fourth go-ing in, lost to top-ranked Saul Er-vin of Union County (63-1) 5-2.Sophomore Brady Wells (44-6),also ranked fourth, fell 14-5 totop-ranked Jorge Vega of FernCreek (54-1). Yenter knocked offfoes ranked third and fifth earli-er in the day, and Wells beat thethird-ranked wrestler in his

class, 5-0, in the semis. Eli Matthews finished fourth

at 182, falling in the semifinals inovertime. Bryan Spahr was sev-enth at 138, winning three conso-lation bouts after losing in thesecond round.

Dakota Lillie finished eighthat 120, winning four consolationmatches after losing in the firstround.

This is difficult giv-en Daves role in ouruniversity and our com-munity, NKUs Direc-tor of Athletics KenBothof said in the re-lease. Dave is a goodman and has givenmuch of himself to thedevelopment of theyoung men in our bas-ketball program. I amgrateful for his serviceand wish him and hisfamily well.

After finishing 5-13in the Atlantic Sun lastseason, NKU went 7-7 inconference play this

TONY TRIBBLE FOR THE ENQUIRER

Northern Kentucky University coach Dave Bezold talkswith Tayler Persons during the Norse basketball gameagainst West Virginia in December.

This was the momentof redemption the Saintshad been craving for 365days.

Since Sydney Mosswent down with a knee in-jury in the first half of the2014 sectional final, theThomas More Collegewomens basketball teamhas dedicated itself toavenging that loss and ad-vancing to the programsfirst final four. Theyearned that berth withtheir most hard-foughtwin of the season, defeat-ing second-ranked St.Thomas (30-1), 75-58.

Im proud of our play-ers, our alums, our fans--Im so happy for every-body, said head coachJeff Hans. We have anew group this year. Tosee them come togetherand be able to play theway we played in the sec-ond half--Im proud ofthem.

This years Saints feltlike they were a team ofdestiny since the offsea-

son. Their regular seasondominance has continuedinto the postseason, but ithasnt always been easy.It certainly wasnt on Sat-urday night.

The Saints trailed athalftime, 31-28. After hit-ting five of their first sev-en shots, they missed 18 oftheir next 23 to close outthe half. St. Thomas en-tered the game with thesecond-ranked scoringdefense in the countryand held Thomas More to39.3 percent shooting.Moss led the way with 10points at halftime, butstruggled from the fieldand seemed to be dazedby an inadvertent hit tothe face. She sat the final4:06 of the half, but cameout with renewed energyin the second half.

I just hate losing,said Moss. Were all realcompetitive and we havea lot of heart. We knewthat this was the time tostep up and finishstrong.

She made her first shotof the second half, athree-pointer, and the en-ergy in the sold-out Con-nor Convocation Centershifted immediately. TheSaints dominated the sec-

ond half, and Moss fin-ished with a game-high 35points.

We feed off of whatshe does. We feed off ofher just as much as shefeeds off of everybodyelse, said Hans. Thatwas just a big boost of en-ergy, confidence, andwhat we needed to get go-ing. The whole crowd gotinvolved and into it.

Theyre hungry. We ac-complished that goal ofgetting to the final four.The next step in our proc-ess is to try to win a na-tional championship.Were going to be hungry.Our two seniors and ourjuniors who have beenthrough so much

The Saints again reliedon a deep supporting castto carry the team whenMoss struggled early andto close the game out late.

Sam Cady added 10points, a night after foul-ing out scoreless. NikkiKiernan added eightpoints and eight reboundsoff the bench. StephanieKrusling snagged six bigrebounds and Olivia Hub-er provided her usualspark of defensive inten-sity.

By winning the pro-

grams first sectionalchampionship, theseSaints have cementedtheir place in ThomasMore history. They arefar from satisfied, and re-main focused on theirmission to bring a nation-al championship to Crest-view Hills.

In the midst of the cele-bration, 2014 graduateKatie Kitchen emotional-ly embraced her closefriend and former team-mate Wainscott.

Thats what its about,keeping that tradition andplaying for the people be-fore you, said Wainscott.

Thomas More will faceTufts on Friday, March 20,at Calvin College inGrand Rapids. They cutdown the nets followingtheir final home win ofthe season. They were de-termined not to let anyother team cut down thenets on their home court.

It feels really good. Tosee everybody with theirparents, to see familieshugging, Im happy forthem, said Hans. It wascut short last year whenwe lost. Now, we wereable to pull it out. Its anexciting time for ThomasMore College.
