INDEPENDENCE — Thereare families in need, and theIndependence Fraternal Or-der of Police and the CitizensPolice Academy are here tohelp.

FOPLodge75 and the alum-ni association have joinedforcesonceagain for theannu-al food drive. The collection ofnon-perishable food items isgoing on now through Dec. 20.Items or monetary donationscan be dropped off at the Inde-pendence Police Department,5409 Madison Pike. The foodwill be given to about 50 fam-ilies in Independence andSouthern Kenton County.

“This is what the FOP ishere for – to give back to thecommunity,” Detective MikeRichman said. “We see somany families in need, we’rehappy to do this. It gives thema happier holiday.”

Richman has organized thefood drive for about 10 years,but said it has been going onmuch longer. He said not onlydothegroups’membersvolun-

teer to sort and deliver food,but their families get involvedtoo. Those receiving, he said,aren’t the only ones gettingsomething special for the holi-day.

“This really teaches us a bitabout giving back to the com-munity,” he said.

Tom Brinker, president ofthe alumni association,agreed. He said participantsalso learn that hunger is veryclose to home.

“It’s surprising that even ina city like Independence thereis still a lot of need,” he said.“We have a great communityof people who are generousand donate to this wonderfulprogram.”

Brinker said he hopes thatone day there won’t be a needfor the program, but antici-pates that, as in years past, theneed will continue to grow.

“Theneed is great,” he said.“It feels good to give back thisway and to feed our communi-ty.We’re doing good, we’re do-ing right by our hometown.”

BRIEFLY

TAYLORMILL—The on-going attempt to bring aUDF convenient store tothe Districts of TaylorMill remains unresolvedafter a four-hour specialmeeting Nov. 25 at themunicipal building.

Property owners PhilandLauriePeacepresent-ed theircase tobringUDFto Taylor Mill in front ofcity commissioners and afull audience. Room ca-pacity was reached, sosome audience membersstanding in the room andhallway had to relocate tothe fire station to watchthe meeting on TV.

Members of the audi-ence and commissionersexpressed wanting tohave a UDF built in thecommunity, but conflictexists because of thecity’s official plan, visionandguidelinesfor theDis-tricts. City officials andsome community mem-bersdonotwant to jeopar-dize the vision of theplan’s guidelines regard-ing zoning restrictions.

The current zoning re-strictions would requireUDF to place gas pumpsbehind the building.

“WewantUDF,”Mayor

Daniel Bell said. “I’vestated (that) to Mr. Peacepersonally, but they haveto follow the guidelines.We would hope that in apartnership, we couldreach some compromisewith UDF, but so far, UDFhas said no.”

UDF representativeTim Kling said that plac-ing the pumps behind thebuilding isn’t an option,based on his many yearsof experience buildingother UDF locations, andthe layout of the buildingsfor receiving products bydelivery.

“Functionally, (with a)$3.5 million investment,we are not willing to takethe risk of moving thingsaround,”Kling said. “It’s adiscipline. That’s why

we’ve been around for 75years and we own all ofour own properties, andmaintain them ourselves.There’s a reason for thosethings.”

According to PhilPeace, there are two cur-rent options that need tohappen for the pumps tobe placed in front of thebuilding. The first one isto amend the text in theDTM-2 zone, where thePeace’s property sits, toeliminate the set back andset it as neighborhoodcommercial area. Thesecond option would be tocreate a newDTM-5 zone,strictly for the Peace’sproperty, thatwould elim-inate the no set back re-quirement and set it asneighborhood commer-cial.

Peace said texts werewritten forbothproposalsto be submitted to thePlanning and ZoningCommission,whichwouldneed to be approved, thensent to the commissionersfor a final vote.

During the presenta-tion, Peace reminded thecommissioners of howthey unanimously votedto send the DTM-2 textamendments, involving achange to the setbacks, tothe Planning and ZoningCommission onMay 21.

Peace said he suggest-ed an alternate option tocreate the new DTM-5zone on Oct. 15, but thecommissioners votedagainst it and made itclear that they were nolonger interested inchanging the previousproposal, which they hadpreviously voted in favorof.

After the discussionended, commissionersvoted against adding anew zone. There was asecond vote to send theDTM-2 text to the Plan-ning and Zoning Commis-sion for approval and itwas accepted. If areaplanning approves thetext, it will be sent back tothecommissioners tovoteon.

PARKHILLS—Students at No-treDameAcademyareclaimingvictory last Tuesday over stu-dents at Covington Catholic inthe annual NDA/CCH CannedFoodWar.

This year, the NDA Pandaspulledout all of the stopscollect-ing14, 468 canned goods. That ismore than double the amountcollected by the boys across thestreet.

While winning the cannedfood war and having the CCHboys come to NDA to clean uplunch for a day was a great in-centive, it certainly was not themost important reward of thisproject.

“TheNDA/CCHCanned FoodWar was a great way for us tocome together as a communityand make a difference in thelives of others,” said ClaireSuetholz, NDA senior. “It’samazing to think that betweenthe our two schools we collectedover 20,000 canned goods. Thatwill go a long way in helpingthose in need this winter.”

This annual battle began in2010 when Student Councilmembers from Notre DameAcademy wanted to do some-thing to help fill the shelves of alocal St. Vincent de Paul foodpantry.Theyrealizedthat if theychallenged the boys at Coving-ton Catholic to a Canned FoodWar, they could collect twice asmany items for those in need.

The competition betweenthese two schools has alwaysbeen intensebutstudentsatbothNotre Dame Academy and Co-vington Catholic realize that ev-eryone is a winner in this

Canned FoodWar.Tuesday morning in a

Thanksgiving prayer serviceheld at Notre Dame Academy,NDA President Dr. Laura Koehlreiterated that thought saying,“The act of giving thanks is someaningful in our lives. In serv-ing one another we are doingChrist’s work as servant lead-ers.”

The war is over for this yearand NDA students are thrilledwith their victory and thethought of making a differencein the lives of others. Theircannedgoodswill be distributedthroughout the St. Vincent dePaul food pantries of NorthernKentucky and Covington Catho-lic High School is donating theirfood items to Be Concerned.

ished a week ahead ofChristmas. Stay tuned…

Baked acorn squashwith nutmeg,cinnamon andbrown sugar

I saw this on TV andliked the fact that itwasn’t overly loaded withsugar, butter, cream, etc.You can make as many asyou like. I showed theseon Fox 19 when I did theweekend show with DanWells and Jessica Brown.They wanted side dishesfor the holidays for asmall family. This fillsthe bill and would be anice accompaniment forthat holiday ham or pork.

Here’s my adaptation:2 acorn squashes, cut

in half and seededOlive oil3 tablespoons unsalted

butter1/4 cup dark or light

brown sugar1/2 teaspoon salt1/4 teaspoon each,

freshly grated nutmegand cinnamon

Preheat oven to 400°F.Rub the inside of the

squashes with olive oil.Place on sprayed pancut-side down. Bake for30-40 minutes or untilsoft.

While the squashbake, prepare the brownsugar mixture. In a smallpot, combine the butter,

brown sugar, salt andspices over low heat.Heat until butter meltsand sugar dissolves.When the squash halvesare ready, flip them overand drizzle the brownsugar mixture on theinside cavity. Place thepan in the oven for anadditional 5-10 minutesor until brown and bub-bling.

Slow cookerbreakfast egg andsausage casserole

A perennial favorite. Ilike to thaw the hashbrowns a bit, but some ofmy readers like to pourthe frozen hash brownsstraight from the bag.Now remember yourslow cooker may take alittle less, or a little more,time. Last time I madethis I used 1-1/2 poundssausage, and it was good.

2 pounds frozen shred-ded hash browns - eithershredded or diced

1 to 1-1/2 pounds sau-sage, cooked and crum-bled

1 bunch green onions,finely sliced, both whiteand green parts

1 pound shreddedcheese

12 eggs1/3 cup milk1/2 teaspoon garlic

powder1/2 teaspoon dry mus-

tardSalt and pepperSpray 6-quart slow

cooker/crockpot. Layer1/3 potatoes on bottom,sprinkle with salt andpepper and top with 1/3sausage, sprinkle withsalt and pepper, add 1/3onions and cheese, sprin-kle with salt and pepper.Repeat layers 2 moretimes, ending withcheese. Whisk eggs, milk,garlic powder and mus-tard. Cook on low 6-8hours or high 4-5.

Tip fromreader’s kitchen:

“Try a combo of hamand bacon instead ofsausage”, one readersuggested.

Kids in the kitchen:milk chocolatepeanut butter bark

My granddaughter,Emerson, loves milkchocolate and peanutbutter. She’ll be makingthis with me as a giftfrom the kitchen. I putthe peanuts in a heavyzip lock and let her poundthemwith a miniatureLebanese “indua” - anolive wood pestle.

1 bag each, about 12oz., milk chocolate andpeanut butter chips

1 very generous cup orso chopped salted pea-nuts

Line cookie sheet withfoil. Melt chips and stirin peanuts. Pour ontocookie sheet about 1/4”thick. Break into piecesafter it is set.

By almost every measure, North-ern Kentucky’s first half marathonwas a success, according to its orga-nizer and one of its most experiencedrunners.

“We sold out with 1,100 partici-pants,” said Scott Spicher, founder ofthe Nov. 15 Honor Run Half Marathon.

“We were able to raise $27,000which will be presented to HonorFlight Tri-State at the Dec. 9 FlorenceCity Council meeting,” said Spicher,media systems coordinator for BooneCounty Schools.

“That will enable half of a plane ofveterans to see the memorials inWashington, D.C.,” Spicher said. TheHonor Flights fly veterans fromWorldWar II and the KoreanWar to Wash-ington, D.C., to see their memorials atno cost to the veterans.

The half marathon, which by defini-tion is 13.1miles, got a thumbs up froma Florence pediatrician who’s run overa dozen marathons including the Bos-tonMarathon.

“I thought it was great. I was reallyimpressed,” Dr. Robert Tagher said.

“For the first year as far the run-ners were concerned it went off with-out a hitch,” said Tagher, who came in11th. “It was well organized. It was agreat course. It was just challengingenough.”

Marathoners took off under theFlorence Y’all water tower, loopedaround FlorenceMall, sprintedthrough theMall Road and HoustonRoad business districts, galloped byTurfway Park Race Course, dartedbehind the Cincinnati/Northern Ken-tucky International Airport and sped

along Aero Parkway before turningback toward the mall and finishing atthe water tower.

Spicher, who coaches youth crosscountry at Boone County High School,said the idea for the half marathonactually came from his wife, who no-ticed there wasn’t such a race in

Northern Kentucky.He ran with the idea, and got advice

from officials of Cincinnati’s FlyingPigMarathon. When it came to plot-ting out the course, he got tips fromFlorence city government officialsJoshWice and Rick Lunnemann.

“The city was really good to work

with,” Spicer said, as were countyofficials in Boone County EmergencyManagement.

“We’re really happy with the way itcame out.”

Spicher went door to door along therace route to give businesses a headsup.

On race day, however, a few logisti-cal issues came up at with FlorenceMall employees delayed from gettingto work.

Spicher said only a few changeswould be made to the course in 2015.

“We’ll try to makeminor adjust-ments around the mall so traffic canmovemore freely,” he said.

Next year the race will be movedfrom Saturday to Sunday “to alleviatesome of the problems we had.”

So mark the date: The second Hon-or Run Half Marathon will be Sunday,Nov. 15, 2015.

“Our goal next year is to double ourattendance,” Spicher said.

Tagher, the Florence doctor andavid runner, said he believed a lotmore people would have signed up thisyear but the event sold out.

He was confident word will spreadso that doubling participation nextyear should be no problem.

Spicher, whose grandfather was aPOW duringWorldWar II, said he’dlike the half marathon to become aNorthern Kentucky tradition for theweekend after Veterans Day.

“To pull all those agencies togetherand pull off a first-class event” in-volved some stress, he said. But it wasdefinitely worth it when you considerit was “for the people who fought forour freedom.”

A publication of

LaRosa’s Family Pizzeria isdedicated to supporting thecommunity-at-large by helpingour neighbors in need. Theholiday season reminds us toreflect on our blessings, whilealso recognizing and assistingfriends and members of ourcommunity facing challengingtimes.

We are particularly drawnto improve the harsh realitiesof hunger and food insecurityfacing members of our com-munity. This continues to be amajor issue in the GreaterCincinnati area, and the de-mands are growing as hun-dreds of thousands of individ-uals and families wonderwhere their next meal is com-ing from. In Greater Cincin-nati, the Feed America’s Mapthe Meal Gap found that thisuncertainty affects 289,940people, including 100,000 chil-dren.

The unemployment rate hasdropped over the past year,

which is goodnews, but theimprovementfails to gener-ate the neces-sary aware-ness of thegrim realityaffecting mil-lions of indi-viduals in ourcountry – hun-ger. Over 2million indi-

viduals in Ohio, almost 20 per-cent of the population, areclassified as food insecure.However, one-third of the hun-gry population does not qualifyfor federal nutrition programs,instead having to rely on foodassistance, from social serviceagencies.

Financial stress is cripplingfamilies locally, and not justthe unemployed. There aremany individuals working thatare still struggling to makeends meet. The strains have

caused people to change theirlifestyles, borrowmoney fromfriends and family, and evenmove in with others to get backon their feet.

For those individuals strug-gling to make it day-by-day,social service agencies like theFreestore Foodbank are bea-cons of hope. These organiza-tions are hands-on communityadvocates, spending time withtheir visitors and neighbors,getting to know them, anddetermining the best way tohelp. Whether providing food,clothing, job training, healthcare, housing, money manage-ment classes, or transporta-tion, these agencies tirelesslywork for those in need.

I visit our pizzerias fromBoudinot to Clifton, Hyde Parkto Fairfield; meeting withguests to hear about their fam-ilies and interests, their joysand successes, and their chal-lenges and hardships. We prideourselves on being a communi-

ty support system and do whatwe can to aid those that coulduse a helping hand. We arecalled to action to help those inneed.

This holiday season, LaRo-sa’s is proud to once againsupport the Freestore Food-bank of Cincinnati to fighthunger in our community.Beginning the day afterThanksgiving, each of ourpizzerias began selling BuddyCards (our 2 for 1 pizza dis-count card) for the benefit ofthe Freestore Foodbank.

The Freestore Foodbank isone of Ohio’s largest food-banks, distributing more than20 million meals annually in 20different counties throughoutOhio, Kentucky, and Indiana.We will donate $5 from the saleof every $10 Buddy Card di-rectly to the Freestore Food-bank. Our contribution willhelp support the FreestoreFoodbank efforts to providethe necessary resources to

meet our region’s growingneed. We hope you’ll join us inour efforts to surpass our 2013contribution of $36,000 to theFreestore Foodbank.

Nov. 27 questionIf the Republican-controlled Senate

which takes office in January passes abill green-lightingtheKeystoneXLpipe-line, should thepresident sign thebill orveto it? Why?

“There are two or three issues be-ing overlooked in the discussion re-garding the Keystone Pipeline.

“1. Private Property Rights“2. The Keystone Pipeline benefits

Canadians and Canadian business in-terests and provides no additional oilsupplies for the US;

“3. After construction, it providesnot more than 35 new jobs for Amer-icans. In order to build this pipeline tocarry ‘tar sands’ oil through the Unit-ed States from theCanadian border toports in Texas to sell in other parts ofthe world; private property will needtobetakenfrommanyAmerican land-owners. This theory of taking wouldbe under eminent domain. Eminentdomain is supposed to be a ‘taking’ ofprivate property for a ‘public’ good.Taking American land for a projectwhichbenefitsCanadians andCanadi-anbusinessdoesnotbenefit theAmer-ican public. As there is no significantbenefit for Americans XL Pipelinelegislation should be vetoed by thepresident if the Senate approves it.”

Paul L. Whalen

“I believe he would veto it. Muchlike the immigration issue the presi-dent no longer has elections to re-strainhimandwill doashewants.Thepresident has often stated the onlyway to curve America’s use of oil is todrive the cost up so high that they areforced to.”

Terry Smith

“I think he’ll veto. I read that War-renBuffet is the chairman of the com-pany that owns the BSFN railroad,which owns all the tracks between theUS and Western Canada. They haulabout 80 percent of the oil to the USandmake about $2 billion a year doingso. The keystone could potentiallycost them that income (and thus thevery generous contributions andfundraisers for the Democratic Par-ty).This issuehas little todowithenvi-ronmental concerns. Like everythingin Washington, it’s all about the mon-ey.”

Bobbi Layne Kayser

“Yes! He should sign it!! The rea-sons are many ... jobs, oil independ-ence from the Middle East, moniescoming to our US economy from oilexporting ... to name a few!”

Linda Ann Salsbury

“No veto! Blocking the KeystoneXL Pipelinewill not keep the oil in theground, norwill it decreaseAmerica’sconsumption of fossil fuels. What itwill do is guarantee continuing unem-ployment for tens of thousands ofAmerican construction, manufactur-ing, transportationandrefinerywork-ers. It will also keep America vulner-able to oil supply interruption andhigh prices fromunstable, foreign oil-producing nations.”

Pamela Robinson Porter

“He needs to sign it ... that doesn’tmeanhewill.Weneedmore independ-ence from foreign oil and the extrajobs are also very much needed.”

Joy Kent Tarleton

“He should sign it... But hewon’t...”James Bartley

“The environmental concerns arephony anyway. They feign concernwhile using oil fromall over theworldand they care nothing about any en-dangered creatures or environmentalimpacts on those countries. I say useevery available energy source we canand lower the overall cost to consum-ersputtingmoremoneyinourpocketsto spend on a larger variety of prod-ucts thanoil andgas.Anaddedbenefitto those that hate on the rich is it putsless income in their pockets andmorein ours. Additionally, Obama will notOKtheKeystone,hisgoalaspresidentwas never to create jobs and improvethe economy, that is boring stuff to anactivist president.”

It’s hard to understandwhy people who (a) needskills to get a job or (b)think they can’t afford togo to college don’t enrollat Gateway Communityand Technical College. Ofcourse, many do.

But I’d bet there arequite a few people in theregion who fall into thosecategories who don’t havea clue about Gateway orhow a Gateway educationcan help them to a morefulfilling life. So let metake this opportunity todebunk some of the mythsabout community collegein general and Gateway inthe specific.

» I can’t afford to goto college. You may thinkyou can’t afford to go tocollege but chances areyou can. Gateway is veryaffordably priced. Tuitionis roughly half the cost ofany public university inKentucky. Plus, Gatewayoffers financial aid in theform of grants and schol-arships (which don’t haveto be paid back), as well asaccess to student loans.Loans do require repay-ment, but Gateway offersfinancial counseling thatcan help you keep borrow-ing to a minimum and planfor repayment from theget-go. And those schol-arships? You don’t have tobe an Einstein to qualify.Many are available forstudents with a C+ aver-age. Some federally fund-ed programs offer freetuition to low-incomestudents, depending onyour career interest.

» My life is too com-plicated for me to suc-ceed in college. Don’tjump to that conclusionwithout talking to us first.We have a wide variety ofsupport services to helpyou overcome those obsta-cles. We have programsthat can help with child-care and other life issuesthat get in the way ofsuccess. Also, our cam-puses are served byTANK, and you can rideTANK anywhere for freewith a valid Gateway IDcard.

» Gateway doesn’t

offer any-thing thatappeals tome. Per-haps youowe us asecond look.Gatewayoffers about150 differ-ent creden-tials inthree dozensubjectareas that

serve local business andindustries that are grow-ing and hiring. Accordingto local economic projec-tions, health care, educa-tion, business, finance,technology and produc-tion occupations are thosemost in demand in ourregion. Gateway offerstraining in all of thoseareas. Representatives oflocal businesses and in-dustries serve on ourprogram advisory com-mittees to help us keepour programs up to dateand relevant. We havecareer pathways custom-ized to industry job lad-ders and credentialsbased on industry certifi-cations that tie specifi-cally to job requirements.

» College isn’t worththe investment anyway.Really? Average earningsof a person with an asso-ciate degree is $37,604annually, according toU.S. Census data. Accord-ing to 2020 Jobs Outlookreport from Agenda 360and Vision 2015, 90 per-cent of jobs in the GreaterCincinnati/Northern Ken-tucky region paying above$33,130 a year requiresome combination of post-secondary education,on-the-job training, and/ormore than a year’s workexperience. Average an-nual earnings for thoseholding bachelor’s de-grees is $49,889. Gatewayoffers associate degreesand prepares graduatesfor transfer to bachelor’sdegree programs at four-year universities.

» Community col-leges don’t offer thesame quality as “real”colleges. Gateway is ac-

credited to award asso-ciate degrees by the Com-mission on Colleges of theSouthern Association ofColleges and Schools.SACS is recognized by theU.S. Department of Edu-cation and is a regionalaccreditation agency thatevaluates academic pro-grams at two- and four-year institutions, like theUniversity of Kentuckyand Northern KentuckyUniversity. That meanscommunity colleges, in-cluding Gateway, undergothe same rigorous reviewas their four-year univer-sity counterparts.

» My dream is to goto a four-year university.That’s a worthy goal; don’tgive up on it. Let us sug-gest that you start at Ga-teway and finish at a four-year school. Our creditstransfer, and you will saveas much as 40 percent onthe cost of a four-yeardegree by earning anassociate’s degree at Gate-way first. Look into ourGateway2NKU program,which guarantees admis-sion to NKU after com-pleting an associate inarts or science at Gate-way.

Explore the Four isMORE scholarship pro-gram that offers guaran-teed admission to ThomasMore College and a TMCscholarship of up to$14,000 a year upon yourGateway graduation.

We have transferagreements in place thatlead to more than 100different bachelor’s de-grees at over 20 U.S. col-leges and universities inthe region and around thecountry.

You see, there’s reallyno good reason for you notto at least explore enroll-ing at Gateway. Call ustoday at 859-441-4500. Orvisitwww.gateway.kctcs.edu.New classes start in Janu-ary.

Andre Washington is dean ofenrollment services at Gate-way Community and TechnicalCollege.

Why not go to college next year?

SOUTHKENTONRECORDEREditor: Melanie Laughman, [email protected], 513-248-7573

KENTON COUNTY — Coving-ton Catholic won’t have record-setting point guard Nick Ruth-satz and several other gradu-ates from last year’s team,which set many milestones ingoing 33-2.

That’s a way of life for justabout any team thatwins a statechampionship, which the Colo-nels didwith a stirringwin overScott County in the Sweet 16state final last March. Headcoach Scott Ruthsatz (77-23overall at CCH) will turn to tal-ented returning veterans toaide in a title defense.

Sophomore guard Cole Von-Handorf averaged 10 points,four assists, four rebounds andthree steals a game last season.Senior forward Bo Schuh, 6-foot-6, averaged eight points,five rebounds and two assistspercontest.Theyare the twore-turning starters for the team.

“With Nick leaving, therewas a leadership spot open. Ifelt that it was my job to take itover,” Schuh said. “I feel likethis is theyear forourseniors totake over. We haven’t had asmuch experience, so there’s alot of doubt coming with uswhenweplay.We’re all ready togo out there and show whatwe’re made of.”

According to coach Ruth-satz, CooperTheobald has had agreat preseason andwill handlethe point guard duties for theColonels. Grant Romes was akey contributor off the benchlast season and will provide agreat amount of athleticism onboth ends of the court. AndyFlood, Noah Lenhof and Mat-thew Shumate are good outsideshooters and all starters for lastyear’s JV regional champion-ship. Will Heppler and HunterZiegelmeyer are both aggres-sive post players and 6-foot-6.

The Colonels will have plen-ty of tests this season as theylook to strengthen their mettlefor their postseason defense.Cov Cath will play two of thestate’s top teams early on, goingto Trinity Dec. 12 and KnottCountyCentralDec. 20 (atRow-an County). Cov Cath will alsoreturnto theprestigiousRepub-lic Bank Classic Dec. 27-30. InJanuary, Cov Cath will go toMoeller Jan. 13. Regional show-downs with Newport CentralCatholic (Jan. 16) and Holmes(Jan. 23) will both take place atthe Bank of Kentucky Center.Overall, CCH will play at leastseven of the top 20 teams in thepreseason state Kentucky poll.

“Last year we were mainly aman-to-man team,” Ruthsatzsaid. “We had really good bas-ketball players, but we weren’treallyathletic.Thisyearwe’realot more athletic. We can useour defense to trap and do someother things to generate someoffense in the backcourt, whichI’m excited to see.”

A look at the other teams inthe county:

Ken Chevalier also has bigshoes to fill this year as he be-gins his 11th season as headcoach at Dixie Heights. Theybelong to Brandon Hatton, whoaveraged 24 points a game lastseason and left as the all-timeleadingscorer inNorthernKen-tucky history (3,045 points). Heis now at Division I Vermont.The Colonels also lost guardAdamDaria, a strongperimetershooter (8.5 ppg.).

Chevalier does have plentyreturning fromlastyear’s team,which was 24-8 and districtchampions before losing in theNinthRegionsemifinals. Seniorpoint guard Liam Rabe aver-

aged6.5 points and three assistsa game. Austin Schreck, a 6-3senior guard, averaged eightpoints and five rebounds. NickNiehaus, a 6-4 senior forward,posted four points and 3.5 re-bounds. Andrew Hedger, a 6-5senior center, posted fivepointsand four rebounds.

Others towatchstartwith6-4senior guard Drew Moore, 6-7seniorcenterMitchellBolin, 6-4senior forward Matt Isbel and6-0 sophomore point guardHunter Meyer. Moore is well-known as Dixie’s quarterbackandDivisionI footballprospect,and he had quality minutes lastseason. Replacing the perime-ter shooting of Hatton and Da-ria is a key preseason concernbut Chevalier is excited abouttheColonels’depthandversatil-ity.

“Even though we graduateda four-time all-state selection inHatton and our hard-nosed glueguy in Daria we will enter theseason with a lot of experienceand a very versatile, hardnosedand unselfish group of playersincluding a very solid seniorgroup that will provide a lot ofleadership throughout the sea-son,” he said. “We have a verychallenging schedule that willprepare us for the postseasonand if everyone stays healthywe could put ourselves in posi-tion to contend for both districtand regional titles this season.”

Beechwood was 11-16 lastyear for head coach ErikGoetz,who returns for his second yearas head coach of theTigers. The

Tigers lost one senior fromyearand have eight returning play-ers with significant varsity ex-perience. Jacob Huff was thetop scorer last year.The6-foot-1junior guard was an all-confer-ence all-star in Division II. Ju-nior guardConnorBrock joinedHuff last year for one of thearea’s top shooting backcourts.Senior forward JohnathanStokes, a 6-foot-2 forward, andsophomore Lucas Benson, bothfootball players, lead the interi-or. J.T. Toebbe, a 6-7 junior, pro-vides key depth inside, and sen-iors Nick Colosimo and JackTalley, and junior Ryan Ban-kemper provide perimeterdepth.

Andy Peters takes over ashead coach for Covington Lat-in, who was winless last year.The Trojans’ top players areNick Readnour, Devin Davis,Brett Mockbee, and Bryar He-rold. “We may not have thephysical talent other teamspos-sess, but I guarantee that ourplayerswill give100 percent ef-fort in each and every game.”

Holmes was 28-6 last yearand lost toCovingtonCatholic intheNinthRegion final. The newheadcoach isveteranMikeList-erman, who was an assistantwith the Bulldogs and has statetournament experience as headcoach at Covington Catholic.

Running the show is seniorpointguardJames“Beetle”Bol-den, who has signed with WestVirginia. The Mr. Basketballcandidate averaged 20.8 points,four rebounds and three assists

per game. Junior MarkelMcClendonaveraged11points agame and hit 50 percent of hisfield goals. Senior Rod Averyanchors the inside at 6-foot-4.

The Bulldogs have greatspeed, quickness and depth.Listerman anticipates playingup to 12 in the rotation. Size in-side is a preseason weakness.The Bulldogs will face severalkey tests, including preseasonnumber one in the state TrinityJan. 24.

Ludlow was 15-11 last yearfor head coach Randy Wofford,who begins his second seasonwith big graduation losses in-cluding two1,000-point scorers.He returns two starting guardsin Cameron Hart and KalibMitchell. Hart, a senior, hasbeen working hard to getstronger in going to the rim.Mitchell, a juniorpointguard, isa strong ballhandler who canboth pass and penetrate to therim. Junior forward MarcusRoark is a versatile scorer in-side and out.

“We will be lacking in thevarsity experience area andhave a very tough schedule,”Wofford said. “However wehave a lot of guys with a lot ofheartwhoareworkinghardandbuying in to our program. Weshould be pretty quick, so ourdefense should help us to besuccessful on the offensive endof the floor.”

Villa Madonna won fivegames last year for head coachNathan Dilts, who returns forhis second season. The BlueLightning return six of their topeight players from last year butwill still be young. SophomoreguardThomasSchutzmanaver-aged 15.5 points and two stealsper game last year and was anall-conference member. Juniorguard Alex Kenkel posted 8.8points and 4.1 rebounds a con-test and turned it on late in the

year including a 30-point out-burst. Sophomore ScottMcQueen, 6-foot-1, returns atcenter. Junior forward SeanMalone is another player towatch as one of the team’s topinterior players. Freshman An-drewDeFrank brings offensiveskills to the post, and freshmanguards Sean McIntyre and RobSpickerwill look to adddepth tothe backcourt.

HolyCrosswon seven gameslast year forRyanSchrand,whoreturns for his second season.The Indians bring most of theirrotation back and has a lotmoreexperience this year. Top play-ers towatch startwithTylerBe-zold, Jared Seibert, LeightonSchrand, Hamilton Scott.

Calvary lost two seniorsfrom last year’s five-win team.The Cougars have five veteranseniors this year in David Kal-fas, ZacValandra, QuinnVarna-do, RileyWorstell andChristianZint.

Lloyd looks to be much im-proved from last year’s 6-22squad, says head coach MikeKey. The Juggernauts are limit-ed in size but have good offen-sive chemistry and scrappyplay on defense. The team willbemore experienced after hav-ing no seniors last year but fivethis season, plus several keyun-derclassmen. Top players are 6-foot-3 senior forward HaydenMolitor, 5-0 senior guard DJWright, 5-0 senior guard MikeDunn, 5-4 junior guard BlakeDonovan, 5-8 sophomore guardLashunn Townsend and 6-3sophomore forward SterlingHamilton.

Scott was 8-21 last year forhead coach Brad Carr. The Ea-gles lost 65-62 to eventual 10thRegion champion CampbellCounty in the district semifi-nals, a rare occasion in recentyears that the Eagles haven’tadvanced to the regional tour-nament.

The Eagles have a lot of re-turning talent to make up forthat, although theywill be smallinside with the graduation ofcenter/offensive lineman Ka-meron Crim. The backcourtleads the way. Senior guardBlake Schneider averaged 19points a game last year, andsophomore Jake Ohmer posted13 a contest. Senior DarianWitherspoon and junior An-drew Trame add key depth.

“We will be guard-based andwe will try to get up and downthe floor, but at an even quickerand more aggressive pace thanlast season. We will have a real-ly fast and quick team that cantakeadvantageof easyopportu-nities by sprinting the floor.”

Simon Kenton lost four sen-iors from last year’s team thatwas15-14and lost theEighthRe-gion championship game inovertime. The Pioneers have astrong senior base returning inNoah Robinson, Matt Mullins,Jaeger Pracht and Grant Ver-cheak.

On Nov. 18, junior out-side hitter Jayden Julianhelped lead the NorthernKentucky volleyball teamto the Atlantic Sun Con-ference tournament semi-finals with a team-best 15kills and 12 digs againstStetson. NKU fell to Lip-scomb the next day in thesemis in its first-evertournament appearancesince becoming an NCAADivision I program twoyears ago.

The trip toFloridaGulfCoast’s Alico Arenamarked a soaring high forJulian, and the Norse.Four years ago, she waspulling out of a plummet-ing low when her well-decorated athletic careeratHolyCrossHighSchoolwas at a crossroads fol-lowing a second seriousright knee injury in twoyears.

She was sitting withher father, a Holy Crosscoach,andhermother, theHoly Cross athletic direc-tor, in the living room oftheir Independence homeduring the fall of her ju-nior year. They were talk-ing about the young ath-lete’s future after she hadACL surgery on her kneefollowing an injury suf-fered in a preseason bas-ketball scrimmageagainst Walton-Verona.Julian tore the iliotibialband in her right kneewhile playing basketballtwo years earlier.

“I remember thatnight, and what I shoulddo after I recovered frommy second injury,” Juliansaid of the discussion af-ter Thanksgiving. “Theinjury turned out to be apositive.At the time, Iwasplaying two sports, vol-leyball and basketball,and I was always runningaround from practice topractice and game togame, eatingmeals on therun. It was crazy.”

From that point on, shewasprimarilyavolleyballplayer, with less partici-pation in basketball. Shewas running on a tread-

mill fourmonths af-ter she gothurt. Shewas medi-callycleared toresumetraining

seven months after thesecond injury. She was sostrong following rehabthat she didn’t require aknee brace for her seniorvolleyball season.

Although she did playbasketball for the Indiansas a senior, she stoppedplaying basketball year-round while turning mostof her attention to her oth-er favorite sport. She wasa two-time all-region vol-leyball performer for Ho-ly Cross coach BeckyHouston, Julian’s aunt.

She played so well hersenior season while earn-ing all-state honors andthe Kenton County Sport-swoman of the Yearaward that NKU offeredher a scholarship afterseveral other schools pur-sued her services on boththe basketball and volley-ball courts. Feeling morecomfortable in local sur-roundings while beingable tomaintainclosecon-nections to family, she ac-cepted NKU’s offer, andgraduated from HolyCross in 2012.

“It’s one of the bestthings that happened tome,” Julian said. “I’ve hada lot of fun at NKU, andwe’vedonesowell. I knewa lot of girls on the teamfrom high school. Whenmyhighschool teammate,Georgia Childers, joinedthe team this year, therewas no better news. Ourfamilies sat close to eachother at our games.”

Intensely loyal to thosearound her as someonewho thrives in a familyatmosphere, Julian hasbecome the perfect NKUvolleyball teammate, ac-cording to coach LizHart.

“She’s a really goodvolleyball player, withsuch a wide range of

shots. She’s mentallytough, anda superperson,one of the neatest kidsI’ve ever coached. I madeher one of my captainsand she’s only a junior,”said Hart, who did not ac-company the team to FortMyers, Fla., for the A-Suntournament. Due any daywith her first child, Hartwatched the team’smatches on ESPN3. “Thisis a close team. It’s like afamily. Jayden caresabout every girl on theteam, and they care abouther, and it makes us bet-ter.”

Down five points in thefifth set against Stetson,NKU rallied for a 15-13victory. The Norse ralliedfrom 10-5 deficit in thesecond set on the strengthof an 8-1 run sparked byJulian. She put downback-to-back kills on theway to thewin, earning anunexpected trip to thesemifinals, where top-seeded Lipscomb got thebest of the Norse.

Julian, a6-foot sixthro-tation player, had ninekills, an ace and twoblocks against Lipscomb.Teammate Keely Cream-er put down a match-high16 kills, and Mel Stewartset a career-high with 30digs. Setter Taylor Sny-der, from Newport Cen-tral Catholic, ended theseason with her 16th dou-ble-double, posting 45 as-sists and 19 digs.

The Norse finished theseasonwitha recordof19-11. They were 7-7 in theconference. Julian wassecondontheteambehindJenna Ruble with 311 killsafter leadingwith 362 as asophomore. She has 879kills in her three-year ca-reer. She finished thirdthis season with 262 digsand tied for third inblocks.

“She had a nice year,and she’s such agreat rolemodel,” Hart said. “We’rereally looking forward tonextyearwithhercomingback for her senior sea-son.”

NKU Notes» The Northern Ken-

tucky University men’ssoccer team’s seasoncame to an end in Nash-

ville when the Norse fellto Florida Gulf Coast, 2-0,in the Atlantic Sun Cham-pionships semifinals but alook back on the seasonshowed a tale of progressthrough a long 22-gameyear.

The 2014 seasonkickedoff in Highland HeightsonAug.17when theNorsehosted Kentucky in theirannual preseason exhibi-

tion. Extra seating had tobe brought into the NKUSoccer Stadium to accom-modate the record crowdof 1,934 fans who came towatch theNorseandWild-cats battle to a scorelessdraw. It was the largestcrowd for any NKU homesporting event outside ofmen’s basketball.

One win can change aseason, and thatwin came

Senior Night when theNorsehostedStetson.Thefirst 100 minutes of thematch were scoreless,and with their season onthe line, freshman DiegoMartinez smashed in hisfirst NKU goal to give theNorse the 1-0 win. Thegamewouldendupseeingthe Norse qualify for theA-Sun Championships asthe No. 6 seed.

Have you ever won-dered why the Biblecompares the shepherdand sheep to our relation-ship with God? Of all theanimals God created, the

sheep isthe onethat isleast ableto carefor itself.

Dumband de-fenselessmaybe,but itsaysnothingabouttheir

true intelligence. Sheepare smart enough to fol-low their shepherd, rea-lizing if they do, everymeal will be provided,housing secured, andsafety ensured. All thethings that are cause ofconcern to me are ofconcern to sheep as well.

The shepherd knowswhen the land is becom-ing barren and leads thesheep to beautiful greenpastures. Just like myLord knows when my lifeis barren and unfruitful,and if I follow Him, hewill lead me to a newland where I can be fruit-ful and serve Him.

The shepherd leadsthe flock into the valleyand although they fearthe walk, they intuitively

realize it is for theirgreater good and safety.Just like my Lord some-times leads me down intothe valley, and although Ifear the pain of the jour-ney and unknown, Heuses it for His greatergood and keeps me safe.

When the time is right,the shepherd leads hisflock to the mountaintop.And when I am ready, myLord leads me to themountaintop and showsme the beauty, mercy,blessings and love onlyHe can provide.

Several years agowhile camping, we decid-ed to take a walk afterdark. Our son Jonah, 3,zoomed off on his BigWheel into the darkness.My husband, mother andI ran and called afterhim. He reappeared onthe next street ridingalong giggling. The dark-ness didn’t provide anxi-ety for him. He knewwhere he was going evenif we didn’t think he waswise enough. Jonahtaught us something veryimportant that evening.Even when you can’t seeor feel the Father near,He is there. If you wan-der off, just rememberyour way home.

It is the season wherefood may be plentiful andleftovers seem to takeover the refrigerator.

It is a great idea to saveand use your leftovers tostretch the budget andprovide quick meals forthefamily.Sometimes it iseven a good idea to plan tomake extra food to savefor later. It reduces yourwork load and can savetime and energy too.

Leftovers must bestored and reheated safe-ly to prevent foodborneillnesses. Follow these

tips to en-sure yourleftoversare safe toeat:

» Re-frigerateleftoverswithin twohours ofthefoodsit-ting atroom tem-

perature. Bacteria growbest at temperatures be-tween 40 and 140 degreesFahrenheit. Use an appli-ance thermometer to

makesureyourrefrigera-tor is set between 35 and40 degrees F.

» Label and date allleftovers. Eat or freezeany remaining leftoverswithin three to four days.Consume or freeze gravywithin two days.

»Make a plan to use allleftovers. Most frozenleftovers should be usedwithin a few weeks to acouple of months for thebest quality.

» Once you are readyto eat your leftovers, re-heat them so the internal

temperature of the foodreaches 165 degrees F.

When reheating in amicrowave, make surethere are no cold spots inthe food where bacteriacould survive.

Enjoy the wonderfulfoods of the season butmake aplan so you are notoverwhelmed by the left-overs.
