North College Hill celebrates its100th anniversary this year andone group in the city is working
now to make sure that anniversary getsa party befitting the occasion.
The North College Hill Historical So-ciety has planned several events to markthe city’s centennial. Its members be-lieve it’s only natural that they wouldlead the celebration.
“We had such a great childhood grow-ing up here,” said secretary/treasurerLinda Thinnes Braunwart, who hasthree generations of family who live orlived in North College Hill. “I think youfeel a sense of community from that. Itwould be better for kids today if they hadthat feeling of belonging somewhere.”
The society is working on a housingproject and are asking North CollegeHill residents to take photos of all thehouses they have lived in within the cityand make a poster, mounting the photosin a frame with your name and the datesyou lived in each house by May 1.
The big frames are going to line thehistorical society’s display room in theClovernook City Center, 1500 GalbraithRoad. You can contact Braunwart at [email protected] if you no longer live
in the city but would like to participate.“These are the people whomade our
city what it is,” she said. She’s hopingresidents will participate and she’s will-ing to make it easy on out-of-towners.
“I will be happy to take pictures ofyour old house or houses and frame it for
you,” she said. “It’s a wonderful way tohonor your grandparents and parents.
The historical society has also updat-ed the booklet created for the city’s 50thanniversary, and a DVD with a narrated

Springfield Township is gettingready to update its ComprehensiveNeighborhood Master Plan andtrustees are looking for residents tosit on the committee that will do thework.
The Neighborhood Master PlanSteering Committee needs commit-tee members who can represent across-section of Springfield Town-ship with varied backgrounds andinterests.
The original plan, adopted by thetrustees in 2011, provided guidancefor the major community projectsand overall direction of the town-
ship during the pastfive years. While de-velopments such asthe Warder propertyplan were developedas part of the masterplan process, assis-tant AdministratorChris Gilbert says theplan is more than de-velopment. The
groundwork for the Joint EconomicDevelopment Zone passed in 2014and the solid waste contract signedin 2015 came from the master plan.
Gilbert says vacancies have oc-curred as people who were on thesteering committee have moved,died or are no longer interested inserving have dropped off. “Original-ly, we had about 70-80 people serv-ing,” he said. “We will look at the ap-plications to make sure we havegood representation from all of theareas of the township.”
Gilbert says the township wantsto revisit the master plan every fiveyears to make sure it’s still on track.
“It’s a gut-check of sorts,” he said.Individuals from all neighbor-
hood districts are needed to supple-ment the vacancies on the originalcommittee. Residents can submitonline applications to serve on thesterring committee by Feb. 18 to beconsidered for appointment.
Neighborhood districts definedin the plan include Pleasant RunFarms, Sevenhills, Hamilton South-west, Hamilton Northeast, Lexing-ton Heights/Glencoe/Wellspring,Winton Northwest, Finneytown,Winton Northeast, Hollydale, TheValley and West College Hill.

A local church isamong the many groupsmourning the loss of a car-ing and gentle man whodedicated his life to hiscommunity and children.
Tom Griswold, a mem-ber of Mount HealthyChristian Church, diedlast month, leaving a lega-cy of kindness, serviceand dedication to his com-munities. He was 82-years-old.
Griswold served hiscommunities as a mem-ber of the Deer Parkboard of education andthe Sycamore TownshipBoard of Trustees. He wasa tireless fundraiser, asupporter of children,schools, and an encourag-er.
“Mr. Griswold was ablessing,” Mount HealthyChristian Church PastorMichael Doerr said. Tomand his wife, Diane, start-ed coming to the churchabout 10 years ago whentheir church in Kenwoodclosed. Mount Healthywas Diane Griswold’schildhood church, he said.They were both very ac-tive with Diane Griswoldserving as the choir direc-tor for a couple of yearsand Tom Griswold serv-ing as a church elder andon the church board.
“It’s a privilege to callTom a friend and not justto be able to serve as hispastor. He had a story foreverything, and a nick-name for everyone.Though he never gameme one,” Doerr said. “Ev-erybody he met, theywalked away laughingand smiling.”
Doerr said he neverknew Griswold as a coach,principal or school boardmember.
“My impression, inthat sort of a setting, Tomwas no pushover, but hemade sure you knew thathe believed in you,” hesaid. “That’s what I seehere in terms of his lead-ership for his church. Hehad some expectationsbut he was gentle in ex-pressing those and alwaysencouraging.”
Doerr also knew Gris-wold as a man of faith.
“I know that theschools saw it, but youdon’t wear your faith onyour sleeve in the publicschool. It was obvious whohe was and it camethrough,” he said. “I hadthe privilege of seeing hisfaith in action. That was abig piece of everythingelse he did in life.”
Since 1957 Griswoldwas involved in Deer ParkSchools either as a teach-er, administrator, coach,athletic director or board
of education member andhe served on the DeerPark Board of Educationsince 1998.
Hank Estes, a retiredteacher and longtimecoach at Deer ParkSchools, first met Gris-wold in 1959. He remem-bered him as a man whocared for children andtheir educational future.
“He loved kids. Thebest job he ever had wasover at Amity with thoselittle kids,” Estes said.“He’s done all kinds ofthings for kids since he re-tired.”
Griswold was especial-ly good at raising money.He helped the districtraise more than $600,000
to install the new track atDeer Park Junior/SeniorHigh School in the early2000s, he said.
“He was likely respon-sible for raising about$400,000,” he said. “Heliked doing this kind ofstuff and he did it verylow key. Our track isnamed after him.”
Most recently, Gris-wold was working withothers on the Pride in thePark Field Turf Cam-paign, in an effort to raise$700,000 to install syn-thetic turf on the junior/senior high school stadi-um field.
Ken Anders, a formerpresident of the DeerPark Athletic Boostersand the Alumni Associa-tion, remembered Gris-wold as a “great guy.
“We did a lot of work to-gether. It’s been a longtime,” he said.
Deer Park HistorianAnn Poole said the em-ployees of Amity Elemen-tary thought very highlyof Griswold. Her daugh-ter, Penny Hodge, is anemployee there. His ab-sence will be felt through-out the district because heregularly visited theschools, she said.
Griswold served as atrustee in SycamoreTownship from 1985-1988and then as township ad-ministrator from 1988 to
1989.According to the
Mount Healthy ChristianChurch’s Facebook page,Griswold grew up inHamilton and graduatedfrom “Big Blue” (Hamil-ton) in 1951. He went on toplay football at MiamiUniversity. His collegedays were interrupted bytwo years of service in theU.S. Army. He returned toMiami and graduated inJune 1957 with a degree inhealth and physical edu-cation. He received hismaster’s in educationfrom Xavier University.
Griswold is survivedby his wife, Diane, threechildren - Julie Griswoldof Houston, Texas, Jennyand her husband DanRamsey of Germantown,Ohio, and Scott Griswoldand his wife Sonia ofSpringboro, Ohio, andeight grandchildren, Mol-ly (Matt) Hickey, Jess(Hannah) Ramsey, Meg,Addy and Gretchen Ram-sey, Sarah Grace, Sam andSeth Griswold.
There was a communi-ty celebration of his life atthe Deer Park Junior/Sen-ior High School gymnasi-um. In lieu of flowers,people can donate to thefield turf campaign, linkavailable on the districtwebsite, or to MountHealthy ChristianChurch.

I almost forgot about Fat Tuesday thisyear. So I’m late in sharing one of my favor-ite recipes for red beans and rice. But youknow what? This is a recipe that’s a keeper,and good anytime. In fact, I make it moreduring Lent than any other time of year.That’s because I can vary it to make it veg-etarian or not.
Like serving it alongside pork tenderlointhat I’ll rub with a bit of Cajun seasoning.Or adding sautéed shrimp right before Iserve it.
Can you help? Mcalister’s chicken anddumpling soup
Tri-County Press reader Christine C. loves thissoup. She said: “It is not available every day, andone of the three area McAlister’s I frequent doesn’teven carry it. I guess it is up to the managerswhich soups they carry. It is basically a thick brothwith chicken and these wonderful, big, flat, doughy“dumplings”. The dumplings are not a biscuit type
dumpling, and the broth has a wonderfulflavor without the heavy celery flavor somebroths have. I would love to be able to havethis whenever I want - not just if I hit McAl-isters on the right day of the week.”
Well, I went to McAlister’s in Kenwoodand darn, they weren’t serving the dumplingsoup. I thought if I could taste it, I may beable to clone it. If you have a similar recipe,please share.
Tip from Rita’s kitchenAvoid sticky fingers when breadingYou’ll have 3 pans of coating: 2 dry and 1 wet.
Pat the food into the dry coating, and then lift themout with a pair of tongs to put into the wet, coatingboth sides well. Then drop into the last dry coatingand pat coating on with your fingers. Nice andclean!

Slow cooker cranberry pork roast
From Audrey, a Northside reader, who says she loves mak-ing this because it’s so simple, and everyone raves about it.
1 boneless rolled pork loin roast, about 2-1/2 to 3 pounds1 can jellied cranberry sauce1/2 cup sugar1/2 cup cranberry juice1 teaspoon dry mustard1/4 teaspoon ground cloves or bit more to taste2 tablespoons each: cornstarch and cold water
Put roast in slow cooker. In a bowl mash cranberry sauce,stir in sugar, cranberry juice, mustard and cloves. Pour over roast.Cove r and cook on low 6-8 hours or until meat is tender. Re-move roast and keep warm. Skim fat; measure 2 cups addingwater if necessary, and pour into a saucepan. Bring to a boil.Combine cornstarch and water to make a paste and stir intogravy. Cook until thickened. Season to taste with salt and pep-per and serve over sliced pork.
Red beans and rice
Rice and beans together make a protein filled dish. Useyour favorite beans if you don’t like red beans.
1 very generous cup diced onion2-3 teaspoons garlic, minced1-2 teaspoons cumin1 bay leaf1 teaspoon chili powder blend or to taste2 cups rice2 cans red beans, drained4 cups vegetable or chicken broth, or bit more if neededSalt and pepper to tasteTo stir in after cooking: Favorite greens (If using Kale, add
when you put rice in as it takes longer to cook).
Garnish: Thinly sliced green onions, chopped tomatoesFilm pan with olive oil. Add onion, garlic, cumin, bay and
chili powder. Sauté until onion looks almost clear. Add rice,beans and broth. Bring to boil. Cover and lower to a simmer andcook until rice is tender. Remove bay.
Why this recipe is good for you:Beans: Lower cholesterol, stabilize blood sugar, and re-
duce risk of cancer and heart disease.Onions and garlic: Great for your heart.Tomatoes: Contains antioxidants and is good for the
prostate.Brown rice vs. white: Nutritionally superior, your body
absorbs brown more slowly.Bay: Helps blood sugar levels.THANKS TO RITA HEIKENFELD

Feb. 3 questionThere are proposals in the
Ohio legislature to eliminate“pay to play” fees for schoolextracurricular activities (ath-letic and non-athletic). Is this agood idea? Why or why not?
“I would like to see thecharges for extracurricularactivities eliminated. Manyof the students’ familiesstruggle with the $200-$500per student per activitycharges. For those familiesthat have multiple familymembers involved in multi-ple activities it can be over-whelming. These extra cur-ricular activities are very im-portant to develop the wholeperson and promote team-work. Some schools chargefootball fans for on campusparking. Perhaps that mightbe an alternative to offsetthese costs. Go Figure!”

Jan. 27 questionWho will be President of the
United States one year from to-day? Why will he or she havewon?
“Hillary Clinton will bethe president in a year. Why?First because she has the ex-perience and leadership nec-essary to be the president.Second because the othercandidates are driving thoselike me, an independent vot-er away. The majority of theother candidates have notshared their plans; insteadthey are campaigning onhate, divisiveness and pro-vide social media sound bitesmisrepresenting the truth.Unfortunately, they repre-sent the extremes and as a re-sult get lots of attention, but Iam optimistic most voterswill see through the rhetoric,hate and lies and will vote fora more moderate candidatelike Hillary Clinton.”

The Mount Healthy BranchLibrary welcomed two newstaff members in the fall, chil-dren’s librarian Patrick Good-man and teen librarian Liz
Anderson. Goodman is
from Cincin-nati but hasworked inIdaho, Oregon,Australia,South Koreaand Kazakh-stan. Mostrecently heserved as aregional
branch manager and youthservices manager in SouthCarolina. Since coming toMount Healthy in mid-October,Goodman has worked hard torearrange the children’s sec-tion into an inviting, interactivespace that parents and theirchildren can enjoy together.His preschool and baby story-times on Wednesday morningsring with laughter and joy – thekids may not notice how muchthey are learning but the par-
ents and caregivers appreciatethe pre-reading skills seam-lessly mixed in with the fun.
“Early education – literacyin particular – is vitally impor-tant to a child’s growth, devel-opment, and overall happi-ness,” Goodman said. “Itshapes not only the individualchild’s future, but the future ofthe entire community.”
Anderson joined our staff inDecember. She started hercareer at the North CentralBranch, but served most re-cently at the Reading Branchas children’s librarian and thenmanager. Anderson usheredthe staff and communitythrough the construction andfirst months at the rebuilt andgreatly expanded new ReadingBranch.
As much as she relished thechallenges of a large technol-ogy-focused branch, Andersonmissed the rewards of workingwith young people in a neigh-borhood setting. She has al-ready hosted some popularteen craft programs and iscurrently running a reading
challenge which will end with apizza party for participants.
“For me, it’s all about thebooks. I want to help youngadults discover the joy of read-ing so they, too, can reap thebenefits of literature for alifetime,” Liz said.
We have Teen Club everyThursday at 4 p.m. with a va-riety of activities planned. Wealso want to provide teens withthe opportunity to serve thecommunity and share theirknowledge – whether as a bookbuddy to an elementary schoolstudent, or as a tech tutor tohelp older adults engage withpopular apps and software.Teens can apply online(www.cincinnatilibrary.org) tobe library volunteers.
If you haven’t been to theLibrary lately, please stop in atthe Mount Healthy Branch.Stock up on books and maga-zines or the latest movies andmusic. We have free Wi-Fi andaccess to computers. If wedon’t have the exact item youneed we can get it from one ofthe other 40 locations of thePublic Library of Cincinnatiand Hamilton County or otherlibraries throughout Ohio, at nocharge. If you have troublefinding us, we’re across thestreet from the Little DutchBakery on Hamilton Avenue.

THANKS TO LISA MAUCH
Mount Healthy Branch teen librarian Liz Anderson and children’s librarianPatrick Goodman.
Trying to get to the heart ofthe matter, David Perry and Isat at dinner in Diane’s Restau-rant at 1951 Anderson FerryJan. 18, Martin Luther KingDay.
“Now is the time to open thedoors of opportunity to allGod’s children,” wrote Rev.King; and David declares,“Now is the time to open thedoors of opportunity to all qual-ified blind applicants as well.”We pondered the meaning ofhis being recognized as Em-ployee of the Year at the Cin-cinnati Association for theBlind and Visually Impaired,where David works as a ma-chine operator. David says heworks hard and knows his jobwell, but he knows he can doother work even closer to hisheart.
He is a member of a nationaladvocacy group that has moreand better employment optionsfor people who are blind as itsmission. He and his colleagueswant to open the doors of moreemployers to people who havethe right qualifications wheth-er blind or sighted applicants.
People who are blind andbecome successfully employedare still in 2016 approximatelyonly 30 percent of workingaged people who are blind. Wehappened to find that statisticshocking and hard to under-stand. Maybe, in the minds oftoo many people, people whoare blind are not expected tosucceed as competent employ-ees, are not expected to marryand raise children, are notexpected to be responsiblecitizens and good neighborsand friends.
Perhaps, sharing an anec-dote about myself as an 18-year-old just graduating fromhigh school more than 50 yearsago at St. Thomas in FortThomas will get to the heart ofthe matter. When I walked upto receive my diploma withsomeone guiding me, the audi-
ence applaud-ed longer andlouder than forany othergraduate. Iwas glad thatmy abilitiesand successwere recog-nized, but in-side I felt re-sentment be-
cause somehow maybe I wasnot expected to succeed be-cause I was blind. My nextthought was this: “How manyof the employers in the audi-ence would offer me a job eventhough I had all of the qual-ifications for it.
David wants many moredoors to swing open when wewalk in for job interviews andwants employers to greet uswith the expectation that theymay have just found the rightperson for the job. David and Iboth know that, when a qual-ified job applicant who is blindsteps confidently in the door ofa potential employer, he or sheis too often treated as thoughthey do not belong there. Yet,my friends, when that sameemployer looked at the appli-cant’s resume, the applicantwas invited to come for aninterview.
In short, people who aresighted and people who areblind are 100 percent the sameif we all are expected to suc-ceed and have equal opportuni-ties to become successful inour employment of choice.
David, please do not becomediscouraged. Keep trying to getthe message out that you areEmployee of the Year becauseof your fine qualities as anemployee and that employers,including John Mitchell atCABVI and CEO W. RodneyMcMullen at the Kroger Co.,would be fortunate to have youwork for them.

DAVID PERRY:Employee of the Year
Joyce RogersCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST
I was at the grocery storerecently and a woman asksme to reach high on a shelffor two bags of chips. Shesaid, “I needed to buy two toget the sale price of two for$5.” But realistically shewould get the sale price justbuying one at $2.50 each.
In the old days, you reallydid need to buy two to makethe deal. My dad and I use togo to farm auctions on Sat-urdays. They were an experi-ence to be had, as farmersarriving just off their trac-tors in dirt/grease stain over-hauls and usually wearing acorn seed brand or John Deerfarm equipment cap. Alsolocal town people love tomingle and discuss sale itemsor the latest neighborhoodnews.
The auctioneer was gener-ally the same guy with hiscity flat rim hat, dress shirt,pants and tie, holding hisstylish polish wooden auctioncane. There was likewise asense of loss of another smallfamily farm as neighborfarmers a gathered in a smallcircle before the auction todiscuss crops and livestockconcerns. There was gener-ally a local ladies churchgroup selling their bakedgoods on cardboard tables.
The small stuff was soldfirst and after a friendlyopening and a few exchangeswith his regulars, the firstitem was raised in the air forthe large audience to see andthe raising of hands; yellingof a typical “rep” sound to getyour bid noticed, the auctionbegan.
Now the real “two for one”deals usually came with theauction’s small items likeboxes of bolts, nails, parts,tools and odds and ends.When the auctioneer hadtrouble obtaining a bid, hewould simply tell his helpersadd another box of stuff forthat true two for one deal. If
the bids stillwere at the25- to 50-centrange hewould keepadding to thedeal until thecrowd gotinterestedand startedbiddingagain. Mydad was the
small box deal guy raising hishand quickly. But his biddinglimit usually was just a cou-ple dollars. I need to remindreaders with old time farmauction, anything over ten/twenty dollars was usually ahigh price.
The “two for one” deal alsocame in the barn livestockarena. I remember once theauctioneer got carried awayand added an old milk cowwith a goat to entice somebids. The problem becomesof course…say you wantedonly the goat…but ended upalso with a nonproductivelethargic elderly dairy cow.The crowd got a kick out ofthese two for one odd combi-nations…laughter and wittyremarks about the presentdemands for combined goat/cow milk made amusing mo-ments. Later these addeditems, such as the cow, wereusually cheaply sold or givenaway before the winningbidder left for home.
So Kroger and other storesadvertising about a two forone deal…no thanks, as I’mon the lookout for the real“two for one deal.”

NORTH COLLEGEHILL - At the top of thelist, compiled in an effortto stop or slow downNorth College Hill HighSchool’s basketball team,stand the Thompsonbrothers, Kameron andKenny.
So far, teams haven’tfound the answer, and,really, no one better un-derstands how difficult itis to stop one of theThompsons than theThompsons.
“I respect his jumper— it always goes in,” saidKam, like a man who’sbeen bitten by that jum-per a time or two.
“We play one-on-one allthe time,” said Kam, grin-ning. “Sometimes I’ll win,sometimes he’ll win orwe’ll start getting mad ateach other.”
Kenny concluded:“Then the game will beover.”
“We’ve been playingtogether since we werefive. It’s just life now,”said Kenny, a 6-foot-1 ju-nior shooting guard, who’scurrently second in theMiami Valley Conferenceaveraging 17.4 points pergame.
“We push each other,we make each other bet-ter.”
When they step on thefloor, they’re in rhythm.That heavy bond makesthe Thompsons a dynamicduo, but that bond has alsoextended throughout theteam.
It’s paid dividends forthe Trojans, currently en-joying a 16-3 season, seat-ed at the top of the MVC at
print deadline on Feb. 5.“I think we (are) so
tough because we been to-gether since middleschool — our whole team.There’s like eight of us to-gether since middleschool,” said Kam, a sen-ior point guard, who aver-ages 11.9 points, 3.2 assistsand 3.2 steals per game. “Ithink we bonded together.We know what everyonecan do on the court. Weknow what role we need toplay so when we go outthere we’re a tough teamto play.”
Now in his second sea-
son with the Trojans,coach Shannon Minor isjust glad the Thompsonsare wearing red and goldand he doesn’t have toworry about game plan-ning against them.
“Any time you have aset of brothers, they’veplayed together in thebackyard, AAU, wher-ever it may be, since theywere little,” said Minor.“They understand eachother, where they’ll be onthe court. They’re on thesame page.
“(Kam) is a leader onthe court, your point
guard has to be an exten-sion of you … now, with itbeing my second year, healready knows what I’mthinking ... (and) he’slearned to communicatethose things with the restof the team.
“(Kenny) is such a goodscorer; he does really wellin transition. He’s athleticenough where he canguard anyone on the court… he can shoot the ball ex-tremely well, he’s a goodfree throw shooter andhe’s got very long arms.”
The Thompsons are amatchup nightmare, and
this season they’re moti-vated to end their NCHplaying days togetherwith hardware. Kam andhis younger brother havea limited amount of timeleft to play together in redand gold. They’d prefer tofinish it in style.
“I respect that (Kenny)plays with a lot of heart,no matter who we’re play-ing against,” Kam said.
Added Kenny:“(Kam’s) a great pointguard, he’s quick and hecan dribble. I wouldn’t getopen half the time I scoreif it wasn’t for him.”

Kameron Thompson of North College Hill goes hard to thehoop against Western Hills earlier this season.
MONFORT HEIGHTS- The youth is clearly vis-ible on La Salle HighSchool’s wrestling team,but it’s also viable. Youthand inexperienced are inthe same arena, butthey’re definitely differ-ent.
Just because the Lanc-ers are young doesn’tmean they’re inexperi-enced. In La Salle’s case,quite the opposite.
“All in all, I think wedid pretty much what wethought we’d do duringthe regular season,” saidLa Salle coach Avery Zer-kle. “We’re a pretty goodtournament team, not areal good dual team at thispoint.”
La Salle, which lost inthe first round of the stateduals to Harrison, fin-ished second as a team atthe Glenn Sample Coach-es Classic, second at Alli-ance High School’s TopGun Invitational and wonthe Edgewood Invitation-al.
Not only do the Lanc-ers have returning wres-tlers who made deep tour-naments runs last season,they also have more than afew newcomers who haveproven they belong.
Juniors Corey Shie andEric Beck, both state qual-ifiers last season, have ledthe way again this season.Shie’s racked up a 30-3record and the 132-poun-der won his bracket at theCoaches Classic, Top Gun
and the Grizzly Invita-tional at Wadsworth. Beckhas been equally impres-sive with a 32-5 recordand a title at the CoachesClassic.
Senior 120-pounder Ja-red Thiemann was a dis-trict qualifier last seasonand he’s only gotten bet-ter.
“He’s finally cominginto his own here,” Zerklesaid of Thiemann, who’s25-9 this season with arunner-up at the CoachesClassic.
Junior Hunter Perduehas gone 25-8 and he’s hitthe podium at four tourna-ments.
As for the underclass-men, the Lancers are load-ed with potential.
Sophomore Blake Wil-son has gone 20-5 with arunner-up at the CoachesClassic and a title at Edge-wood. Freshmen LucasByrd (106), Trey Sizemore(126), Michael Baker (170)
and Garrett Bledsoe (182)have all been impressive.
Byrd finished first atTop Gun, second at Coach-es Classic and he’s 22-6. Si-zemore’s gone 18-8 withseventh place at CoachesClassic. Baker has gone29-7 and the big stagehasn’t bothered him as hetook third at CoachesClassic, third at Top Gun,fourth at the Grizzly andseventh at the ultra-toughBrecksville-BroadviewHeights Invitational.Bledsoe started the sea-son late because he wasplaying linebacker for theLancers’ state champion-ship gridiron run. Bled-soe’s 16-8 and he placedfourth at Top Gun.
“At this point in theseason, most of these guyshave wrestled varsity,they’ve been to the bigtournaments and they’repretty used to competingat a high level,” said Zer-kle. “We talk about takingit one weekend at a time,one match at a time.”
After the GreaterCatholic League tourna-ment Feb. 6 , the Lancerswill begin their postsea-son push.
“There’s somewhat of achallenge,” said Zerkle.“We’re excited for thepostseason but it’s alsobeen a long season. We’llhave guys out with inju-ries, just holding the teamtogether at this time ofyear is a struggle. Wedon’t take anything forgranted; you try to get theboys ready the best youcan and hope for the best.”
