DECISIVE WIN 1BPioneers beat Colonels for 4th win

The fresh air, the gentlemoos, the rustle of hay beneathyour feet. It’s a life loved by Ed-die and Marcy Gibson who liveand work at Ed-Mar DairyFarm in Kenton County.

For the past 10 years, theyhave operated Ed-Mar Dairy.Eddie used to milk his prizedherd twice a day, but technol-ogy has allowed him to use a ro-bot to do the job that once tookhim hours to finish.

Ed-Mar will be one of 13stops on Kenton County FarmHarvest Tour 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.Saturday, Sept. 19.

“I enjoy seeing all the peo-ple,” Marcy said. “They alsoget a little bit of an understand-ing of what we do and howwe’re improving our farm.Kids also get to see where milkcomes from, many for the firsttime. It’s a neat day, probablythe best day of the year.”

This year’s tour featuresstops at the IndependenceFarmer’s Market, the North-ern Kentucky Horse Networkat the Kenton County FairGrounds, Kenton County Coop-erative Extension, Redman’s

Farm and Winery, Poverty Hol-low Farm, Funke’s HickoryRidge Farm, Triple J Farm,Honey Locus Farm, Free Rad-ical Ranch, Rising PhoenixFarm, Atwood Hill Winery, Ed-Mar Dairy Farm and DurrBranch of the Kenton CountyPublic Library.

This is the fifth year for thefree self-guided tour, accord-ing to Kenton County agent foragriculture and natural re-sources Dan Allen.

“Farmers are opening uptheir farms so you can see whatit is they do,” he said.

The Gibsons, for example,operate the dairy farm in Wal-ton using a high-tech milkingrobot. It increases productivityby 20 percent.

Allen said urban and subur-ban families will find the Gib-sons’ high-tech robot fascinat-ing.

“It sort of looks like some-thing from space,” he said. “It’sa great learning opportunity.It’s always fun to see kids getexcited when they realizewhere milk really comesfrom.”

Try equine yoga athorse network stop

New this year is the expand-ed Northern Kentucky HorseNetwork presentations at theKenton County Fair Grounds,2836 Harris Pike, Independ-ence. Horse Network volun-

teer Maggie Collins said thiswill be the spot for everythingequine.

“We will be showing differ-ent breeds of horses through-out the day, have games andguest speakers, drill team de-mos and more,” she said.“We’re even going to havesomeone demonstrate how todo yoga on a horse. Our goalwith this is to educate peopleabout horses and to show thatyou don’t have to be an expertor have land or be wealthy to beinvolved with horses.”

Here you can watch ademonstration of milking adairy goat and Suri alpaca fi-ber presentation and spinningyard.

In a world where progress isoften described as develop-ment, a group of citizens inSouthern Kenton County areworking to make sure progressincludes preservation.

The Southern Kenton CountyCitizen Group, made up of mem-bers who are living in the ruralunincorporated part of the coun-ty, is working to share the peo-ple’s vision for their home.

Although officially formed in2013, original members havebeen working since 2011 along-side county planners who put to-gether Direction 2030, a com-prehensive plan for the future ofKenton County. The plan wascompleted late last year.

Now the group is making aneffort to break down the plan’stasks to bring them to fruition,as well as maintain a vision thatincludes preservation of the ru-ral landscape. South KentonCounty is essentially an agricul-tural area with rural residentialsites.

“My personal vision would befor the south end of the county tohave vitality that offers oppor-tunities to the next generation ofresidents so that they want tostay here,” said Kathy Dono-houe, a member of the group. “Istill want to maintain the ruralspaces and feel while providingthese opportunities. All thewhile giving consideration tothe land and natural resourceswe have so they are not lost.”

In 2014, Donohoue said, mem-bers of the group reached out toother residents with a survey tohelp create the vision for theircommunity. According to Dono-houe, 3,000 residents receivedthe survey and about 1,000 re-sponded. Results showed a clearmandate to keep landscapes ru-ral, land use friendly to farmingand other agricultural business-es, and current roads safe.

“We found out that peoplereally love where they live andvalue the agricultural base wehave and the rural landscapeand country-side and our small-town feel.”

From this survey the groupdeveloped its goals and madesure that Direction 2030, thecounty's plan for the future, pro-tected its part of Kenton County.

“The Direction 2030 planwasn’t just homework to us thathad to be done,” Donohoue said.“We are deadly serious in callingout the tasks and getting some-thing accomplished here.”

The citizen group has split it-self into four committees totackle the major issues facing

the south Kenton: Roads, ser-vices, agriculture and heritage,and zoning.

“Those of us who are in-volved in the committee workare constantly seeking inputfrom residents and in turn giv-ing them information on whatwe are doing through publicmeetings and emails,” Dono-houe said. “We want to makesure that we are working forwhat they want for their com-munity. That’s why we are work-ing on a second survey that ad-dresses specifics on how to car-ry out Direction 2030. Residentshave said what they want, nowwe are making sure of the howwe do it.”

Donohoue has been focusingon existing zoning. Current zon-ing allows for lots of a minimumof one acre. That could meanthat 75 homes, each on one acre,end up on a 75-acre farm that issold to developers. Her group isinvestigating other options, shesaid.

“We want to find out whatzoning options are best to sup-port a vision of a agriculturaland rural community,” she said.

According to group memberSuzann Parker Leist, the visionfor Southern Kenton County isfocused on preserving “a life-style that remains farmerfriendly.” Parker Leist is part ofthe agriculture and heritagecommittee.

“Education is key,” she said.“People need to understandwhat it is the farmer does. Weneed to keep the county farmerfriendly and support agricultur-al growth so that family farmscan thrive.”

Parker Leist said that accord-ing to the survey, 80 percent or

CRESCENT SPRINGS— “We must never, neverforget,” state Rep. DianeSt. Onge said of the Sep-tember 2001 day whoseclear blue sky was soonovertaken by smoke andash, a day that changedour history forever.

An estimated 1,000people came to hear St.Onge, R-Lakeside Park,and other dignitaries atthe dedication of theNorthern Kentucky 9/11Memorial on Friday,Sept. 11.

Many brought chil-dren or grandchildren toCrescent Springs Com-munity Park to see therendering of the TwinTowers that once gracedthe New York City sky-line.

“Most kids 10, 11, 12years old don’t know any-thing about this,” saidCrescent Springs MayorLou Hartfiel, who spear-headed the three-and-a-half-year fundraisingdrive for the monument.

“They weren’t aroundso this is new history forthem,” Hartfiel said. Or-ganizers want families tovisit and bring their chil-dren to deepen their un-derstanding of 9/11, thewar on terror and its im-pact on America. “That’swhat we want to see hap-pen.”

World Trade Centervictim’s familyattends ceremony

The family of Brian P.Williams, an Edgewoodnative who died in theWorld Trade Center at-tack, came to see the 9/11Memorial Friday eve-ning.

“It’s great. I think theyreally did a wonderfuljob on the memorial,”said Kate Williams, moth-er of the CovingtonCatholic High School starathlete who became abond trader for CantorFitzgerald. The financialservices firm lost 658employees in the TwinTowers strike.

Wearing a large buttonbearing a photo of hersmiling son, Mrs. Wil-liams was there with fivegrandchildren – age 11and younger – born after9/11 and proud to be at theceremony honoring vic-tims including their un-cle and first respondersfrom that fateful day.

Featured speaker U.S.Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Fourth District, said “ev-ery adult here remem-bers exactly where theywere and what they weredoing when the events on9/11 happened.

Massie was waitingon plane taken byhijackers

“I was in Los Angeleswaiting on a plane thatwas coming from Bostonand I was going to get onthat plane and go see mywife and kids. The plane Iwas waiting on that wascoming from Boston nev-er made it to Los Angeles.That was one of theplanes that the hijackerstook,” Massie said.

All air traffic wasgrounded for two days,leaving the future con-gressman 2,000 miles

away from his family.“That’s when I becamevery thankful to the firstresponders. I knew thatthey were the only thingprotecting my family be-cause I couldn’t bethere.”

Massie pledged to“make sure we have theresources and the infor-

mation and the policies tomake sure another 9/11never happens.” He re-peated his concern about28 redacted pages in thecongressional 9/11 re-port. “I’ve been able toread them and I thinkthey need to be madeavailable to the familiesof the victims in that tow-

er, to the families of thefirst responders.”

Massie said he wasstruck by the scale, sizeand permanence of theNorthern Kentucky 9/11Memorial “for a smalltown here in Kentucky”and was “proud that wehave erected somethinglike this in the FourthDistrict not to a politicianbut to our first respond-ers.”

Beam from GroundZero sparkedmemorial idea

The idea for the 9/11Memorial was born afterCrescent Springs-VillaHills Fire/EMS Chief JeffWendt obtained a 4-footsteel beam from the rub-ble of the World TradeCenter. Then-Council-man Hartfiel approachedNancy Holian of HolianGranite & Bronze Inc. inFlorence for suggestionsabout incorporating thebeam into a monument.

Holian quickly

sketched out her visionon a napkin, a plan thatimpressed Hartfiel andcity leaders wholaunched a fundraisingcampaign in January2012.

Though costs wentover budget, Hartfielsaid he’s gratified thememorial is complete be-cause there were doubt-ers early on. Next hewants to try to get thestate to put up a sign onthe expressway directingtravelers to the memori-al. “I’m glad we’re at thispoint now and we fin-ished the tribute to thosethat died on 9/11 and thatit will be here for the restof history.”

Golf outings, contribu-tions from individualsand businesses, collec-tions at Kroger, pancakebreakfasts and comedyshows were among thefundraising events forthe memorial, City Ad-ministrator George Rip-berger said.

According to Holian,“We will always remem-ber the lives that werelost. We will rememberthe families that still livein grief. We will remem-ber the dust, the fire, theash, those last phone callsand those funerals.”

Besides the speeches,Friday’s ceremonies in-cluded both uplifting mu-sic by third-grade stu-dents and solemn bag-pipe music. As KentonCounty Sheriff ChuckKorzenborn played“Taps,” a riderless horserode through the ceremo-ny, bringing home themessage “We will neverforget.”

And an actual Erlang-er 911 dispatch messagewas broadcast:

“This is a last call forthose who perished in theevents of Sept. 11, 2001.For all those monitoringthis channel take noticethat we honor and paytribute to those fallen he-roes. May they rest inpeace. Erlanger Ken-tucky Dispatch, time1956.”

Allen said the farm touris like a mini vacation.

“It gets you outside ofyour element,” he said.“It’s very family friendlyand anyone can appreciatea farm and learn some-thing. You also get to knowyour neighbors.”

higher wanted open land.“They do not want bigbox stores or industry.”

“We want economicopportunities here likeeverywhere else, but wewant it to be forwardthinking. Our agricultureeconomy is unique forthis county and we needto make the most of it.”

The agriculture andheritage committee islooking into several op-tions to do this. They areworking to get a localmeat processing plant inthe area, which is some-

thing lacking in all sixNorthern Kentuckycounties. Parker Leistsaid that they’re alsolooking into formingsome sort of online ex-change to match peoplewho are looking for cer-tain products with thosewho provide those prod-ucts from jams and jel-lies, to fresh produce, towines to beef.

She said the group isalso developing ideas forsmall businesses thatcould thrive in the agri-cultural economy ofsouthern Kenton Countylike campgrounds, moon-shine stills, zip lines, fish-ing lakes, hiking trailsand nature tours, to name

a few.The overall goal for

the organization is to cre-ate a oneness and voicefor the southern end ofthe county.

“It’s important that weget as much input fromresidents as we can,” saidParker Leist. “That’s thedemocratic way. That’show you get a voice andhow you define your com-munity.”

PUZZLE ANSWERS

SEPTEMBER 17, 2015 • SOUTH KENTON RECORDER • 7ANEWS

My newest recipe taster is always enthu-siastic and very opinionated. The expression

on her face is a dead giveawayas to whether the food is ac-ceptable or not.

I’m talking about Ellery, ouryoungest granddaughter, whowill be 1-year-old next month.She’s at the age that’s so funwhen it comes to trying newfoods. This week it’s applesand pears and you can seefrom the photo that they madethe cut!

Our apple trees are heavywith fruit, so making applesauce was our“chore” for the day. Ellery’s 3-year-old sister,Emerson, helped scrub the apples clean, andmash them after cooking.

I’m sharing the recipe for homemadeapplesauce because honestly, it really is easyand so good for you. Think fiber and vitaminC. And the aroma of apples and cinnamonsimmering on the stove on a cool autumn day– need I say more?

Later on I’ll share my apple fritter recipe,a family favorite.

I’m also happy to give you June Cross’heirloom goetta recipe. Yes, it’s that time ofyear again when homemade goetta is beingmade in our community kitchens.

Rita’s homemadeapplesauce

Use whatever apples you like. Amix of sweet and tart is OK. I add-ed a few pears. If you leave skinson red apples, they tint the apple-sauce a pretty pink. Ditto withdried cherries or cranberries.

Prep for cooking:I like to rinse them in a combi-

nation of equal parts clear vinegarto water, which removes bacteriaand toxins. Swish around, rinse anddry. Whether you peel or not is upto you. I don’t peel since the fruitcomes from our trees. Cut intosmall chunks.

On stovetop:Place fruit in pan and barely

cover with liquid, either water,cider or apple juice. Bring to a boil,cover, lower to a simmer and cookonly until fruit can be mashed witha potato masher or pureed. Thiswon’t take long. The less you cookthe fruit, the more vitamins re-main.

Other:Sprayed crockpot or microwave.After cooking:Puree chunky or smooth. Use a

potato masher, blender or foodprocessor. If I add dried fruit, I’llmash by hand. If using blender,blend a small amount since hotapples build up steam.

To sweeten:I don’t, but that’s up to you.Other nice add-ins: Cinnamon, apple pie spiceRaisins, dried cranberries or

cherriesButternut squash/pumpkinSweet potatoesRefrigerate:Up to 4 daysFreeze:Up to 3 monthsTo can:Process in boiling water bath.

Pints take 15 minutes, quarts take20. Shelf life is 1 year.

A primer on canning fruit is onmy website Abouteating.com

June Cross’s familygoetta

This is the perfect time ofyear to share this treasuredgoetta recipe.

June says: “Here is a trueauthentic (delicious) goettarecipe of German/Hungarianheritage. My deceased hus-band, Carl, taught my sonGlenn Weiglein the recipe.Worth making!” June’s is anice addition to my goettarecipe file. Glenn lives inChicago and brings a batchto June every Christmas. It’sinteresting to note that Junelikes her goetta fried inbutter. We use bacon drip-pings.

1 pound fresh pork shoulder(also called fresh shoulderbutt)

1 pound beef shank1 beef marrowbone2 ribs celery1 large onion2 tablespoons salt2 pounds pinhead oatmealWater

Put everything but oat-meal in uncovered heavypot. Pour water over tocover only. Bring to a boil,then lower to a simmer.Cook uncovered for 4 hours,stirring occasionally. Keeppot half filled with water atall times.

In separate pan, emptyoatmeal and cover withwater. Let soak for 1 hour.Remove pork mixture frompan but keep liquid in. Diceingredients real fine and putback in pan. Add oatmealand cook on low for aboutan hour, stirring frequently.Grease two bread pans. Putgoetta in and refrigerateuntil cool. Flip onto plateand slice to desired thick-ness. Fry in butter to desiredcrispness.

Start harvest season with homemade applesauce

Every week we ask readers aquestion they can reply to via email.Send your answers [email protected] with Ch@troom inthe subject line.

Pope Francis

Rep. Massie becomingan embarrassment

Congressman Tom Mas-sie is at it again. He’s thecongressional 5-year-oldsaying bad words to shockmommy and daddy.

His latest gambit is to bethe only one to vote “pre-sent” on the Iran nuke trea-ty because, “As a memberof the House of Repre-sentatives, I have no au-thority to approve a treaty.”He called the Friday, Sept.4, roll call vote by theHouse as a “showboatvote.”

Earlier this year Massiewas the only “no” vote onthe Israel/US Security Pactbill.

He is the leader of thepack of uber-conservativeswho are trying to removeJohn Boehner from theSpeaker’s position. Fortu-nately he has failed at that.

I would like to see Mas-sie do some positive thingsfor Northern Kentucky likegetting federal money forthe Brent Spence Bridgeand spend less time “show-boating” himself. He isbecoming an embarrass-ment.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Several months ago theTaylor Mill police chief alongwith members of the TaylorMill City Commission and ourcity administrative officerwere the focus of criticism,created by a group comprisedof both residents and non-residents, when we allocatedfunding for the purchase ofBody Worn Camera’s for ourpolice department.

As a result, we wanted toaddress the issue especiallyafter recent events in othercommunities on both sides ofthe river and make sure thatresidents understand the basisfor our decision.

There have been extensivestudies conducted across thecountry in relation to the de-ployment of Body Worn Cam-eras (BWC). As you can imag-ine, a major issue for all gov-

ernmental agencies isthe need for transpar-ency, and there havebeen specific studies toaddress the issue aboutwhether BWC’s makean agency more trans-parent.

It would stand toreason, however, thatby recording the ac-tions of police officersthe agency is openingthe door to discussionabout the actions of the offi-cers thus creating more avail-able information to the publicand thus improving transpar-ency. Numerous practicalbenefits from law enforce-ment officers wearing BWC’sinclude:

» Documenting Evidence:Cameras provide evidentiarybenefits, including expedited

resolution of citizen com-plaints and lawsuits.

» Officer Training: Withcapture of in the moment be-havior, video presents excel-lent training and coachingopportunities for how best tohandle an incident.

» Preventing and Resolv-ing Complaints Brought ByMembers of the Public: Im-

provements have beenshown in both policeand citizen behaviorwhen cameras areworn in a visible loca-tion.

» StrengtheningPolice Accountability:Cameras providetransparency whichimprove accountabil-ity and performance.

The Taylor Mill CityCommission funded

the Body Worn Camera pro-gram at the suggestion of ourpolice chief and CAO for theaforementioned reasons, andwe believe BWC’s will in-crease accountability andmore importantly they will bea tool to preserve the uniquerelationships between ourpolice officers and both in-ternal and external communi-

ty members. Over the last couple months

the Taylor Mill Police Depart-ment has been field testingdifferent types of BWC’s andwe recently selected our pre-ferred vendor. We anticipateeach officer being equippedwith BWC’s before the end ofOctober.

The entire Taylor Mill CityCommission applauds theproactive work of our staff,and we see BWC’s as part ofpromoting safety for all wholive in and visit or passthrough our community.

This guest column was acollaborative effort by threeTaylor Mill officials. Jill CainBailey is city administrativeofficer; Steve Knauf is assis-tant CAO/police chief andDaniel L. Bell is mayor.

It seems every day themorning news is all bad news.There are assorted storiesinvolving violence, scams,injustice, car accidents, trafficjams, bad weather comingsoon and more. They all seemto present a grand assortmentof sad, bad news stories. Iwonder how the news report-ers keep a smiling face!

It leads me to wonder,where is the good news thesedays? I know good news is outthere somewhere. Unfortu-nately we have to search for itmuch like a treasure huntersearches for sunken treasure.

What if things were differ-ent and the media had a “GoodNews” segment and a “BadNews” segment. I would surelyturn off the TV when the badnews was presented. It wouldmake things easier for theviewer. Here are a few ideasfor the Good News segment:

In Today’s Good News seg-ment, it’s all good in our neigh-borhood because:

» 25 healthy babies wereborn this week in the Tristateincluding three sets of twins.Infants and mothers are alldoing well.

» 50 people were hired atlocal businesses. Many arerecent college graduates andthey are excited to start theircareers with more opportuni-

ties than everbefore.

» Our gro-cery storesare stuffed fullof fresh fruitsand veggies(year round).We take thisone for grant-ed all the time.Eat a ripepeach soon orenjoy fresh

corn on the cob with real but-ter (it’s good for you now, stud-ies show)

» The price of gas is goingdown! You can search the In-ternet for the lowest gas pricesin your area before you fill upyour tank, saving you money.Technology rocks in this case.

» Storm warning systemsare greatly improved. Newweather sirens are being in-stalled all over the Tristate.This system will save manylives in the event of high windsor tornadoes. The weatherapps can be downloaded toyour cellphone to alert you ofbad weather, where ever youtravel. This is a grand im-provement over the old systemof are the cows laying down orstanding up (one of them in-dicates oncoming rain).

» Everyone has access toclean drinking water. Wow,

indoor plumbing too, really!That is great news.

» Very few potholes are onour roadways today. This is agreat time of year to go for arelaxing drive in the country,so enjoy it.

» More people than everare recycling. This is resultingin less trash being dumped intoour landfills. Recycle yourplastics, glass and metal. Insome cases earn money forrecycling.

» I saw a few “LemonadeStands” this summer. Yes, kidsare still selling lemonade for50 cents a glass. Support yourlocal neighborhood futureentrepreneurs.

» Cellphones have moretechnology than ever before.Remember the old days of“party lines” and “rotary dial”and “real bells” inside thephones? It is funny to thinkabout how much phones haveimproved over the years. Ev-eryone seems to have someoneto call too. The best thing, I getmore than five minutes to talkto my friends. We had to abideby a time limit in my day. Re-member when it was cheaperto call long distance in theevening? Call, Talk and Text,Unlimited … what freedom!

» Live music can be foundall over the Tristate area. Getout there and enjoy your local

musicians. You will be sur-prised how great the talent isthese days.

» Goetta is still available!We live in the only area in theU.S. that produces and servesgoetta. Many thanks to allgoetta producers. Keep up thegood work. We love you.

» Check out a few chil-dren’s books at your local li-brary and read to a youngster.It can be fun.

» Monarch butterflies areon the move, heading towardMexico for winter. Watch forthese orange flutter byes in agarden near you.

» Chili parlors never close!They offer coneys, three-wayspiled high with cheese, anddon’t forget the appetizer …hot sauce and crackers. Thishas to be the best news I haveever heard.

Add to this list if you like,challenge everyone in yourfamily to think about somegood news they have heardrecently. Our perspectiveabout the news can change ifwe only search for the goodnews in life.

Jill Fessler is a resident ofSilver Grove. Her children’sbook, “Shortstop Sadie,” isavailable on Amazon. It’sabout a dog that plays baseballwith neighborhood kids.

Where is the good news these days?

INDEPENDENCE — NotreDame Academy has been thenemesis of many a NorthernKentucky team in girls soccer.

Simon Kenton has been nodifferent, as the Pioneershaven’t beaten the Pandas on thepitch since at least the 2001 sea-son. Notre Dame ended SK’smost successful season in thatspan, 2007, when SK won theNinth Region and bowed out toNDA in the state round of 16 witha record of 15-6-1.

A Pioneers team whose confi-dence is trying to approach thatof the 2007 group clashed againwith Notre Dame Sept. 9. NotreDame, last year’s state semifi-nalists and two-time state cham-pion in recent years, left Inde-pendence with a 2-1 win, SK’sfirst defeat after eight wins tostart the 2015 season.

“When you’re building andchanging habits, you still revertto some bad habits,” said headcoach Rob Zoeller. “We made afew errors but there were longspells in the game where wewere putting them on theirheels.”

SK had lost by counts of 5-0and 7-2 the previous two seasonsto the Pandas, and had severalresults in the same ballparkagainst them in the past 14-plusyears. Believing they can playwith a team of the Pandas’ pedi-gree is a process.

“The margin is so small at the

highest level as to who wins andwho loses,” Zoeller said. “Wetalk to them about doing the littlethings. The champions do the lit-tle things well and do them allthe time. For our first real test ofthe year and playing a top-10 op-ponent, we know we’re betterthan what we played and we

think we can continue to growand learn from the experience.”

SK won its first eight gamesby outscoring opponents by a to-tal of 47-2. The most notable winwas a 2-1victory over defendingNinth Region champion Ryle.Abigail Zoeller and Gill Morriseach had a goal and an assist onthe other’s marker.

Abigail Zoeller, the coach’sdaughter, has 16 goals and 10 as-sists. A junior who has verballycommitted to Xavier University,she is a transfer from LouisvilleSacred Heart, where she wasfirst team all-state. Morris, asenior, has 13 goals and eight as-sists.

“They’re still learning how toplay off each other and they’llget better playing off each oth-er,” the coach said. “We’re add-ing other pieces. Our offense isever-evolving and it will keepgetting better. The piece that de-velops last is attacking, becauseit’s all rhythm and feel. That endis only going to get better and wehope it’s scary good by the end ofthe season.”

Colton Williams made an unoffi-cial visit to the University ofCincinnati Saturday night forthe Bearcats’ game against Tem-ple, according to head coach JeffMarksberry.

The 6-foot-5, 265-pound righttackle has stepped in and in-stantly became a force for thePioneers this season after theygraduated all but one starterfrom last year’s offensive line.

“Colton’s a pretty special ath-lete and a pretty special offen-sive lineman,” Marksberry said.“He’s a basketball player andhas great feet.”

In addition to Cincinnati, Wil-liams put himself on the radar ofa handful of Division I coachesin the offseason with his perfor-mance at recruiting camps andshowcases. Expect him to seeheavy recruiting interest when

college coaches are allowed tostart officially contacting himduring his junior year.

2B • SOUTH KENTON RECORDER • SEPTEMBER 17, 2015 LIFE

There is something unde-niable happening at BB&TField in Crestview Hills.

The Thomas More Saintshave found comfort and solaceon game days, posting dom-inating victories each of thepast two Saturdays. The num-bers are staggering, and havea significant meaning to theteam still coming to grips withthe death of teammate MitchKramer just before the start ofthe 2015 season.

In Week 1, the Saints defeat-ed nationally-ranked St. JohnFisher 48-0. Kramer’s highschool uniform number was 4;his college number was 12. InWeek 2, the Saints throttledHanover, 84-7, scoring 12touchdowns. Kramer’s fellowdefensive backs notched fourinterceptions, including re-turning two for touchdowns.

The wins have been con-vincing, and the Saints havefound a deeper meaning with-in them.

“That kind of gives youchills a little bit,” said seniordefensive back Ian Gunn, anElder graduate. “You knowthere’s something up there,something driving you a littlebit that you know you don’thave to worry about it. It’s go-ing to be okay.”

Just two weeks in and it hasalready been another record-setting season for the Saints.Senior Tyler Vogelpohl (La

Salle) had a school record 207receiving yards in the season-opening win over then-No. 19St. John Fisher. Jensen Geb-hardt (Kings) became theschool’s all-time leading pass-er. After that win, the Saintsmoved up from No. 23 to No. 16in the national poll. Senior re-ceiver Goose Cohorn (DixieHeights) became the school’sall-time receptions leader inthe win over Hanover.

“They’re a special group,”said head coach Regis Scafe.“They went through a lot.There’s a lot of things that hap-pened that have drawn themtogether.”

On Sept. 12, the Saints hon-ored Kramer. His youngerbrother, Mason, led the teamdown the hill and onto the field.Dozens of fans wore whiteshirts reading “Our TwelfthMan” on the back; proceedsfrom the shirt sales went to theMitch Kramer ScholarshipFund. The team wore whiteuniforms and the coaches allwore the Twelfth Man shirts inMitch’s honor.

“We’re doing it for him.There’s no other way to ex-plain it,” said sophomore de-fensive back Johnny Lammers(Elder). “We’re just playingour hearts out for him becausehe’s our man. We’re playingfor 12.”

The Saints have a thirdstraight home game onSept. 19. Playing in front oftheir family, friends, and fanshas helped the team as it con-

tinues to mourn the loss ofKramer.

“We’ve been through a lotthis last month. Being at homein this atmosphere has helpedus get off to a great start,” saidScafe. “There’s no question it’sbeen great getting back togames. We’re more on a rou-tine now. It definitely helps.”

The Saints players admitthat they feel an extra forceand motivation driving themthis season.

“I’ve been coaching a longtime and guys love to play atthis level, but these guys unbe-lievably love the game. Gamesare so much to them. They justlove to play,” said Scafe. “It’sso much fun as a coach. Youdon’t have to motivate theseguys.”

The players are still strug-gling to cope with the loss oftheir friend and teammate.There is no doubt that theyhave done everything they canto honor him on the field, com-pletely dominating their oppo-nents. Kramer was a defensiveback and that unit has beenparticularly impressive. TheSaints secondary has allowedjust 282 passing yards whilenotching five interceptionsand scoring two defensivetouchdowns. “As a DB corps,we’ve become even closer. Ev-ery day is for Mitch. There’s noother way to put it. Every dayis for him,” said Lammers.“Everything is just clicking. Itfeels like there’s nothing thatcan break us right now.”

goals all year until the NDAgame.

“We take a priority in how wedefend and how champions de-fend,” Zoeller said. “To be a real-ly good team you have to give upless than 20 goals (for the sea-son) and we talk about how muchwe value defending. We’ve takenthree or four attacking playersand made them defenders. It’scoming along. We want to keep

getting better.”SK was set to play a strong

Eighth Region team in OldhamCounty Sept. 16 then hosts Spen-cer County Sept. 21. SK alsohosts defending 10th Regionchamp Campbell CountySept. 28.

For the coach, it’s all about be-ing at top form in the postseason.

“Winning is a habit and wewant to continue to win and be

successful. The standardsshouldn’t change for each oppo-nent,” he said. “You have to beconsistent with how you playand train and perform on matchday. We’re getting better at it butwe have to continue to find outwhere we are and what we haveto better at.”

Well, if you haven’tseen or heard about themovie “War Room,” youquite possibly may beliving under a rock. “WarRoom” came in at No. 1 inthe box office over theLabor Day weekendproving one thing; Amer-ica is hungry for up-lifting and wholesomestory lines at the movingtheater.

But for someone likeme, this movie was morethan just a heartfelt mes-sage about the power ofprayer; it was a call toaction; a battle cry, andan invitation to startfighting my battles in anew and very powerfulway.

As Miss Clara boastswith utter fervency inthe movie, “You need aprayer strategy.” Manyof us claim to have aprayer strategy, butwe’re wrong, verywrong.

Praying before meals,before bedtime and be-fore taking off on a longtrip are all well intendedand important, but aprayer strategy is differ-ent.

It’s like the person atwork that talks aboutdesperately needing avacation and the otherperson who actually sitsdown, creates a budget,and plans exactly where

they’regoing,whatthey’ll bedoing,and thedatetheirvacationstarts.One will

keep you dreaming with-out ever really gettinganywhere and one willtake you on the trip of alifetime.

A prayer strategy isnot simply asking God tobless your family andyour business, and healyour loved ones, it’s get-ting alone with God, real-ly alone and telling Himexactly what you need tobe successful, and com-pletely trusting His abil-ity to make it happen. It’syou being vulnerable andholding God accountableand trusting that He’sreliable.

Of course God alreadyknows what you need,but just as any parentlongs for the intimatefellowship with her child,hearing them expresstheir deepest longingsand faithfully encourag-ing them as they go, Godlongs for that same in-timacy with you and me.

If you’ve seen themovie, you might bestruggling with one is-

sue: “Where do I buildmy War Room?” (Most ofus don’t have an extracloset to give up.)

The answer is simple.Anyplace you can bealone and intimate withGod is the perfect place.Location isn’t near asimportant as commit-ment. Begin and/or endeach and every day inclose, personal contactwith God sharing yourdeepest desires andthanking Him for seeingyou through.

As the Bible instructsus, “Do not worry aboutanything but in every-thing by prayer and sup-plication, let your re-quests be made known toGod and the peace ofGod, which surpasses allunderstanding, willguard your hearts andminds through ChristJesus.” Philippians 4:6, 7

As it was so power-fully exposed in themovie, being strategic inyour prayer life canchange the direction ofnot just your life, but alsothose around you. It’stime to go to battle; it’stime to get into your“War Room.”
