NEW SUMMER HOURS: Mon.-Fri. 7am-10pm Sat. 8am-10pm Sun. 8am-9pm Many of us have heard of someone who is battling Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)- often referred to as “Lou Gehrig’s Disease.” In the City of Huron that someone is Michael Danilo, a long-time Huron resident who is a familiar face throughout the community. Mike is fighting a courageous battle and do- ing so with inspiration, determination and humor. “Lou Gehrig’s Disease,” is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. Based on U.S. population studies, more than 5,600 people in the U.S. are diagnosed with ALS each year. (That’s 15 new cases a day.) To help Mike with his medical bills and ex- penses, the Huron community has banded together to help in different ways by donating time and services. Friends have arranged for the following fund-raising events, and are en- couraging community members to come out and support efforts: Tuesday, May 18 – Jim’s Pizza Box in Huron will donate 10 percent of total sales for dine-in, delivery or carry-out. A huge THANK YOU to Jim and Nancy West of Jim’s Pizza Box for sup- porting this cause. Saturday, June 5 – Friends have searched and gathered treasures to sell at the Huron City Wide Garage Sale held this day at the Huron Boat Basin. All proceeds will go to the Danilo family. Sunday, June 27 – Inspiration Run 5K Run/ Walk at Fabens Park. This is a Huron Parks and Recreation event/fund-raiser that spot- lights a person or cause each year. This year, 50 percent of the $10 entry fee will go to the Danilo family. The Huron Parks and Recreation Department is offer- ing more programs and camps than ever before to keep kids entertained this summer. Sports camps being offered by the department include old favorites, such as cheerleading (July 6-8), baseball (June 21-25), soccer (July 19-23), tennis (July 12-23), and golf (June 28-30). New this year are Track and Throwing camps, which will be held June 9-11. Once again this year, Huron Lagoon Marina and Huron Parks and Recreation will be offering the department’s swim program. Starting in July, there are three sessions from which to choose. All of the camps provide hands-on learning in order to teach kids the proper technique for these increasingly popular sports. In addition, the annual Hershey Track and Field meet will be held June 12 at the Huron High School track for children ages 9-14. This is a free event. And for children who are avid bowlers, be sure to check out the department’s new bowling program Part- nering with Riverview Lanes, a summer bowling pass ($50) allows for two free games and free shoe rental each day that it is used. The passes are valid Tuesdays through Fridays from 4 p.m. to midnight, and Saturdays from noon to midnight. For more information on any of the camps and pro- grams, call 419-433-8487 or visit www.huronparks.org. With only four weeks of school left there is plenty of time to bring up the grades. The Stu- dent Exchange, launched this past February, is a tutoring program designed for students to as- sist students with just that. The program has been challenged by the test of time and has proven to be very successful in more ways than one. Patty VanBarg, tutor ex- change advisor and John Ruf, principal, have overseen the program from the beginning. One reason the program has been a huge success is because of the great relations among the students. There were dedicated tutors and appreciative recipients. Currently, there are 38 tutors helping students who may be struggling or in need of some form of ad- ditional help. Throughout the day there are four to six tutors available to help. At this time the only servicing request that has fallen short are those in need of Spanish tutoring. “We are working closely with Mrs. Arambula, the Spanish teacher, to provide Spanish tutors on Fridays,” Van- Barg said. Since February there have been 40 tutor requests and countless dedicated hours. “I am so proud of the Tutors who volunteer their time to help their classmates,” Van- Barg said. These requests have generated multiple tutoring sessions, usually one to three times per week. The 38 tutors were chosen by their teachers, based on their po- tential for leadership in Huron High School and excelling in three or more subjects. Many students struggle with test taking. Students will request an exchange tutor to re- view and study a day or two before taking a test. Others request a tutor to help with homework a few days a week. Students sometimes seem to understand the new content in class when the teacher is teaching, but then when they are working at home alone, they struggle. Many students have been helped by being paired with an exchange tutor who meets to review home- work such as algebra, explained VanBarg. Many high school teachers and coaches have helped make the program successful. For ex- ample, a young lady was struggling in math and had a full schedule with track after school. VanBarg was creative and able to find a tutor on the track team who was willing to tutor be- tween track events and after track at the sta- dium. The administration, staff and student body have been working together as a team to help students succeed. If a teacher feels as though a student is struggling, they will offer the student exchange services. “Almost all students have accepted the invitation graciously. The fact is this program is making a difference. Students have someone to go to if they need the help. Many parents have called to thank us for help- ing their child succeed,” VanBarg said. Another reason the program has been so successful is because of the organizational re- sources and tools used to keep the program go- ing. The program was launched using Google Apps Education Edition – a set of customiz- able tools that allow faculty, staff and students to work together and learn more effectively. Google Docs and Google Sites enable students and teachers to share documents online, at any time and from any location. The Google Apps Education Edition is ad-free and free of charge. The tutoring request is made on the Huron High School Web site and the Google Apps Program sends an automatic email to VanBarg. A tutor is notified through the Google Apps email at school. The tutor then makes con- tact with the requesting student during their available study hall, and arrangements are made for study sessions, discussions of subjects and availability. Parents and teach- ers are also able to request a tutor for strug- gling students. In many cases the person being tutored is given a Google account so that the tutor and student can email com- munications with each other to better fa- cilitate the tutoring. Google Apps and Google Docs allows for two or more Huron students to work on the same document in real time, giving every- one the ability to edit. This can be done at home, school or anywhere there is Internet access. Students can begin writing a paper at home on their Huron Google account and go to school and open the account to continue the work or to print. The following students have dedicat- ed themselves to the program: Angela Barbour, Paige Bragg, Emily King, Dani Czekja, Zach Dusza, Meg Mischler, Na- than Reineck, Jordon Romack, Colleen Ma- chovina, Katie Zimmer, Keily Balduff, Bryce Haase, Thomas Kyer, Ben Washburn, Kayla Riddle, Jen Fialka, Faith Johnson, Ikki Tana- ka, Matt Buckingham, Nino Majoy, Chris Wobser, Lauren Dewey, Austin Maddox, Kate Jones, Kathleen Fialka, Katie Fink, Taylor As- berry, Melissa Moberg, Dylan Corwin, Nick Lowry, Josh Marshall, Randi Minton, An- drea Gillespie Dan Nagy, Katie Thorne, Ra- chel Stelzer, Sam Wechter and Carley Fawcett.

Many of us have heard of someone who is battling Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)- often referred to as “Lou Gehrig’s Disease.” In the City of Huron that someone is Michael Danilo, a long-time Huron resident who is a familiar face throughout the community.
Mike is fi ghting a courageous battle and do-ing so with inspiration, determination and humor. “Lou Gehrig’s Disease,” is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. Based on U.S. population studies, more than 5,600 people in the U.S. are diagnosed with ALS each

With only four weeks of school left there is plenty of time to bring up the grades. The Stu-dent Exchange, launched this past February, is a tutoring program designed for students to as-sist students with just that.

FROM THE BENCH LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
BY JUDGE BILL STEUK,HURON MUNICIPAL COURT Many drivers are unclear as to what
to do when they confront a funeral procession, especially at an intersec-tion. Ohio Revised Code Section 4511.451 is the law in that regard. This section defi nes a funeral procession as “two or more vehicles accompanying the cremated remains or the body of a deceased person in the daytime when each of the vehicles has its headlights lighted and displaying a purple and white or an orange and white pennant attached to each vehicle.”
Except for public safety vehicles or when directed by a police offi cer, pedestrians and the operators of all vehicles shall yield the right of way to each vehicle that is in a funer-al procession. This section also states that when the lead vehicle in a funeral procession (usually the hearse) lawfully enters an intersection, the remainder of the vehicles in the procession may continue to follow the lead vehicle through the intersection regardless of the traffi c control device. Ve-hicles that are part of the funeral procession are required to exercise due care while traveling in the procession to avoid colliding with any other vehicle or pedestrian.
Please note that the law requires that all vehicles in a fu-neral procession have their headlights activated and dis-play the purple and white or orange and white pennant so that it is clearly visible to approaching traffi c from any direction.
A violation of this section is considered a minor misde-meanor. However, the degree of offense can be elevated if the violator has prior offenses.
I hope this gives you a better understanding of the laws regarding funeral processions. It is important that all driv-ers who confront a funeral procession be patient and cour-teous to ensure the safety of all those involved.
Articles appearing in this column are intended to provide broad, general information about the law. Before applying this information to a specifi c legal problem, readers are urged to seek advice from an attorney.
Community StrengthOver the fi rst weekend in May, the Huron Knights of
Columbus conducted our 10th annual Measure Up Cam-paign along with the councils across Ohio. We look for-ward each year to this campaign as it serves people with developmental disabilities and your support is crucial. The weekend was very successful and we want to say thank you to the citizens of Huron for their generous donations. And a special thanks to Katmans, Ace Hardware, Cornell’s and the Huron Market for their support. Your generosity and kindness is limitless. The Knights of Columbus also serves many other causes, such as blood drives for the Red Cross, highway clean-ups and scholarship funding, to name a few. Helping those with developmental disabilities is near and dear to our hearts and it is also good to know 80 percent of the donations goes directly to our fellow special needs citizens in Erie County. We are truly blessed to be living in
a great community with such caring neighbors. Our Sincere Gratitude, Knights of Columbus,St. Edwards Council 5023 of HuronDennis Pell, Dave Bruck, and Jack Busam, Grand Knight

would like to thank all of our loyal customers for support-ing us with our Muscular Dystrophy fundraiser.
We raised $1,718 with the sale of shamrocks and three bake sales throughout the year.
We placed fi rst in our division and fourth out of 68 Drug Marts. Once again, we thank you. We have truly great cus-tomers.

Fisher-Titus Medical Center’s Autism Spectrum Kids program has teamed up with Premiere Theater 8 in Nor-walk to bring families and children with autism and other disabilities a unique private showing of the movie “Shrek Forever After.”
The movie will be adapted to be a “sensory friendly” fi lm, and will be shown at 10 a.m. Saturday, May 22, at Premiere Theater 8, 50 Theater Drive, Norwalk. Children on the au-tism spectrum and with other disabilities can be oversen-sitive to light and sound, making it diffi cult for them to enjoy a typical movie showing.
“During sensory friendly fi lms the sound is turned down, the lights remain on, and there are no previews or trail-ers,” said Dani Davie, occupational and sensory integration
certifi ed therapist at FTMC.
“These modifi cations create a sensory friendly environ-ment that will decrease the likelihood that the child will become overstimulated.”
In regular movie showings, children are expected to re-main seated and stay still and quiet for up to two hours, a task that can be very diffi cult for children with autism.
“At our sensory friendly fi lm, children will be able to talk, sing, dance, walk around, move and take a break as need-ed,” said Lindsey Soisson, speech-language pathologist and FTMC’s special programs coordinator.
Children will be able to bring in their own gluten-free, casein-free, or other special snacks if on restricted di-ets, but the concession stand will also be open. “We real-ize that children with autism and other disabilities have unique challenges in regards to social and community
activities, and often may not get to join their families and friends at the theater,” Soisson said. “This type of adapted showing gives these children the opportunity to enjoy a movie with their families in a safe and accept-ing environment.”
Children on the autism spectrum often have diffi -culty transitioning to new places and activities. To help prepare the children for the movie experience a “Going to the Movie” social story has been created. This social story will be at the theater and also is available upon request to anyone who will be attending the event.
For more information on the sensory friendly show-ing of “Shrek Forever After” or any of FTMC’s pediatric programs, contact Soisson at 419-663-1975, Ext. 3040.
Introduced to the com-munity in 2001, ASK is a program of Fisher-Titus’Pediatric Therapy De-partment designed to help families and children living with autism spectrum dis-order. The program offers educational seminars, refer-ral resources, phone consul-tation, out-reach programs, classes for children and families, and promotion of autism awareness.
Denise Iden-Koffel of Huron was one of 12 win-ners from across the state in Connect Ohio’s Net-book Sweepstakes. Connect Ohio is a non-profi t, technology-neutral, public-private partnership that works with telecommunications providers, business and community leaders, information technology companies, researchers, public agen-cies, libraries and universities in an effort to help extend affordable high-speed Internet service to every Ohio household. Iden-Koffel entered the Netbook Sweepstakes by completing an online Connect Ohio survey at the Huron Public Library. Pictured are Jeff Beebe, State Operations Man-ager, Northeast Ohio, Connect Ohio; Iden-Koffel; and Anne Hinton, Huron Public Library.
The Huron Garden Club will present its annual May Plant Sale, Saturday, May 22, 2010 at the Huron Lake Front Park. The time scheduled is 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. rain or shine.
Chairwomen of the event are Dorothy Kastelic, Ann Maines, Norma Batch, and Martha Ulrich.
This sale is a popular event, organized by members of the
Huron Garden Club, featuring many varieties of annuals and perennials from their yards . There is also a “Specialty Shoppe” to explore.
Plan to attend the sale to view the unusual selections of plants and the crafts suitable for your gardens. Please feel free to buy!!!
SUBMITTED BY ANDY WHITE, CITY MANAGERThe city’s request for a $2 million Clean Ohio Revitaliza-
tion Fund grant will be considered at the Round 8 Award meeting by the Clean Ohio Council on Thursday, May 27. The COC consists of 14 members from state government and gubernatorial appointment and is responsible to ap-prove and disapprove grant requests. If awarded, the city’s request will provide for environmental remediation and demolition of the former ConAgra milling and shipping operation. A project announcement is available at http://www.cityofhuron.org/documents/CORFWebAnnounce-ment.pdf.
In the interim period between award announcement and the release of funding, city council will consider two con-tracts to begin an initial demolition exercise this month. On May 5, the city accepted bids from several fi rms for as-
bestos abatement and demolition of auxiliary buildings at the site.
The asbestos abatement project, necessary to complete prior to any demolition, received a low bid of $29,627. The best demolition project bid will generate a $52,500 payment to the city because of the value of the recyclable materials in the buildings to be razed. The method used by the city to advertise these bids netted the city $22,873 pending city council acceptance.
In addition to monetary compensation, the removal of the auxiliary buildings will provide a cosmetic improve-ment to the city’s appearance from the water. It also re-moves expenditures that would have been included as ob-jective tasks in the city’s grant request to the state. Most importantly, the projects represent forward progress with regards to the city’s redevelopment efforts.

‘sLawn &
Gardening with Mary
MARY STRAYER,MASTER GARDENERWhen I was a child, my
mother always had a mem-ory garden, and to her it was a special fl ower hopefully from a loved one’s garden, or one that reminded my mom of that person. Today, they are being done a little differently, but most assur-edly they are beautiful and very meaningful.
To begin with, pick a place in your landscape that can be seen by a window you look out often, or where an outdoor seating area could be added. Keep in mind the sun, wind, water and soil requirements for the plants you want to add to your garden. Remember that sun-loving plants need at least six hours of sun a day, and shade plants will wither in direct sun.
There are many items or plant types that you could have in your memory gar-den. Keeping size in mind, consider a tree, whether large or small. A smaller tree is nice for a smaller gar-den and a larger tree is bet-ter for a large garden. Con-sider weeping trees, as well as blooming trees for your garden. Most of all, try to make the connection to the loved one when you make your selections.
For instance, my aunt hy-bridized peonies, and gave my mother some over the years. I did my best to make sure I got a start of one of the original peonies to keep as a remembrance forever of both my mom and my aunt. The idea worked well, and the plant survives today. If this idea won’t work or you don’t have the identical plant, then choose one that is available and add it to your own memorial garden.
How about adding a small pond feature to memorial-ize a loved one who enjoyed fi shing? Incorporate these types of things into your garden, and your garden will always have meaning to you in a very special way.
Try to add a bench or some type of seating in the memorial garden if at all possible. It’s nice to sit there and remember good things about each of the people you loved. If a relative or friend loved chocolate, go to the greenhouse and pick up a chocolate-scented or chocolate-colored fl ower for the garden. Was the person a lover of the color blue? Then you could plant a fl ower that blooms in that color. One old-time favor-ite is the perennial bachelor buttons available today at local garden stores.
Just remember whatever you do, claim these and all your garden projects as your very own. It’s so much fun to create, and to then go out and enjoy your creations year after year. Happy Gar-dening.

First Osteopathic Hospice Fellowship In Ohio
Physicians with an inter-est in end-of-life care can now receive more intensive training in hospice and pal-liative medicine through the Hospice & Palliative Medicine Fellowship be-ing offered through Fire-lands Medical Education Program. Sponsored and supported by the hospi-tal and Stein Hospice, this new fellowship is the fi rst osteopathic hospice fellow-ship in Ohio; is approved by the American Osteopathic Association; and is only the third osteopathic hos-pice program in the United States.
“Hospice and Palliative Medicine is a specialty area of medicine devoted to re-lieving physical, emotional, and spiritual suffering, es-pecially as it relates to the
end-of-life time period,” said James E. Preston, DO, program director, hospice & palliative medicine fellow-ship and medical director of Stein Hospice Service, Inc. “Hospice and palliative care is one of the most rapidly growing areas of medical care in America. With an increasingly aging popula-tion, hospice and palliative care will continue to in-crease in demand for several decades.”
Those enrolled in the fel-lowship program must have completed an AOA ap-proved residency in family practice, internal medicine, neurology or psychiatry. During their one-year fel-lowship, leading to board eligibility in osteopathic hospice and palliative medi-cine, fellows will be actively involved in the care and management of a signifi -cant number of patients. Hospice and palliative care services are provided through the Stein Inpatient Unit, Firelands, Ohio Veter-an’s Home, and outpatient community settings.

Firelands ResidentReceives Recognition
Firelands Regional Medical Center recently became the only hospital in Northeast Ohio – and second in the state – to acquire state-of-the-art equipment that will aid in quicker and more accurate diagnoses of di-gestive problems.
The Sierra Scientifi c ManoScan360 for Esophageal Manometery allows Digestive Health Center physicians at Firelands to use a catheter that has eight times more sensors than older systems to help diagnose the cause of swallowing disorders, such as trouble swallowing, pain when swallowing, and trouble keeping food down. It can also be used to evaluate patients with heartburn, those who are expe-riencing non-cardiac chest pain, and those with neurogenetic swallowing problems related to stroke and cen-tral nervous system problems.
“An esophageal manometry mo-tility study tests the muscles of the esophagus, which is what you use to swallow, as well as the band of mus-cles at the bottom of the esophagus,”
said Sheila McFarland, charge nurse of Firelands’ Digestive Health Cen-ter. “If this lower muscle grows weak or doesn’t close the right way, food and liquid can move back up into the esophagus and cause heartburn.”
As the region’s only health-care facility to offer comprehensive di-gestive health services, the Digestive Health Center specializes in services for patients having gastrointestinal, pulmonary diagnostics, therapeutic and pain relief procedures. The cen-ter consists of four surgical suites and 14 private rooms for admission, recovery and discharge. The highly-trained staff and team of surgeons perform more than 3,500 procedures annually.
In addition, Firelands new Ma-noScan 360 provides numerous pa-tient benefi ts:
Reduces procedure time to 10 min-utes as opposed to 45 minutes with conventional systems;
Produces faster, and more accurate reports for physicians;
Is more comfortable for the patients by allowing the physician to leave the catheter in one position during the study as opposed to moving it into several positions with older systems.
The Firelands’ Auxiliary provided the $92,000 necessary to purchase the ManoScan, as well as high-resolution catheters, and a pH recorder for visu-alization. According to Jamie Geretz, auxiliary liaison, proceeds from items bought at the Firelands gift shop, spe-cial fund-raising events and dona-tions, make it possible for the auxil-iary to purchase equipment for the hospital, such as the ManoScan.
“We learned of the need for this equipment and how the patients at Firelands would benefi t from having studies done with this equipment,” said Joan Walter, president of the Fire-lands’ auxiliary. “Also, there is no oth-er facility in our region that has this state-of-the-art equipment. The aux-iliary was excited to fi ll this need and play an important part in improving the health-care in this region.”

EHOVE Career Center will give away a car Friday to one lucky student as part of its Perfect At-tendance Initiative. At noon on May 14 in front of EHOVE’s A Building, all EHOVE students will be present to fi nd out who will win the donated 1997 Ford Taurus.
Students qualify as having per-fect attendance if they have no absences, no tardiness, and no suspensions. Getting a chance to win is simple, if students follow the basics. “Be here, be on time, and make good decisions,” said Assistant Principal Rod Smith.
The following 24 students had perfect attendance and qualifi ed for the drawing: Tyler Ellick, Hu-
ron High School; Taylor Fitzwa-ter, Norwalk High School; Liber-tad Flores, Danbury High School; Joe (Chris) Fowler, Perkins High School; Jennifer Franklin, New London High School; Joseph Ger-ber, Bellevue High School; Nathan Gray, Edison High School; Dylan Hale, South Central High School; Michael Hanneman, St. Paul High School; Tyler Hollis, Edison High School; Brandon Hoover, Norwalk High School; Sara Hugo, Vermilion High School; Ka-tilyn Hurst, South Central High School; Sonnie Lang, Vermilion High School; Shane Martin, Per-kins High School; Kayleigh Mill-er, Western Reserve High School; Nick Orzech, St. Mary High
School; Amanda Pfanner, Perkins High School; Joanne Smith, Per-kins High School; Jacob Stierhoff, Margaretta High School; Jarrid Tucker, Margaretta High School; Justin Twary, South Central High School; Danielle Wallen, Monro-eville High School; and Alandra Willis, Danbury High School.
The car was donated by Tom Surdyk, a former Sandusky City Schools teacher. After EHOVE received the vehicle, it fi rst be-came another opportunity for some students to learn, as those in the Auto Tech program and their instructor went over the vehicle for safety purposes and fi xed any problems they encountered.
Assistant Director Mark Ring-
lein said: “EHOVE’s attendance incentives are a great way to re-ward students who are demon-strating a commitment to their future by coming to school regu-larly. Our advisory members and business partners routinely tell us that workplace skills like punctu-ality and attendance are very im-portant to them.”
The career center also does weekly and quarterly drawings, with prizes that include MP3 players, iPods, gift cards, a Wii game system and Guitar Hero. The longer the time period with no absences, the bigger the prize in the drawing. Prizes have been donated by local businesses, citi-zens or staff, or paid for by grants.

Four EHOVE students in the Public Safety Academy recently organized a blood drive with the American Red Cross. Nick Grine, St. Paul
High School; Nicholas Gebelle, Huron High School; Rachel Colyer, Norwalk High School; and Alyssa Koelsch, Edison High School; worked
with Red Cross staff to make the event happen. Other EHOVE students and staff members joined in on the effort to assist the community.
EHOVE Carpentry student Ben Rike, Bellevue High School, said he’s donating for the second time, the fi rst being at EHOVE, too. “I read some-where that most donate only once. I want to help my family and others. You know, pay it forward.”
EHOVE students and staff contrib-uted a total of 127 pints of blood. At December’s drive, they donated 106 pints as well.
Fellow EHOVE student AnnaMarie Herold, Perkins High School, who is enrolled in the Health Tech program, is also a second-time donor. “It just makes sense to donate. Why not?” she said.
As a special thank you, the American Red Cross awarded EHOVE Career Center with $1,500 in scholarships. The funding was awarded to Hannah Gault, a senior from Western Reserve
High School attending EHOVE in the EMT pro-gram.
More local high school stu-dents will attend EHOVE Career Center’s high school next year.
Career center offi cials are see-ing an enrollment increase of about 13 percent for the 2010-2011 school year. The facility serves students from 16 school districts primarily from Erie, Huron and Ottawa counties.
Three new programs are be-ing offered next year: Green science technology; exercise sci-ence/rehab therapy; and foren-sics. EHOVE Principal Denny Muratori feels they are only part of the reason for the increase, citing that fi rst-rate academic courses and partnerships with more post-secondary institu-
tions (where high school stu-dents can gain free college credit while attending EHOVE) have also drawn both students and parents.
Flexibility of student schedules is also a big help to many dur-ing their time at EHOVE. Many students need to manage their academic class time on EHOVE’s
campus and/or local college campuses, on the job training at local businesses, plus activities and sports at their home high school. EHOVE works with stu-dents to help them stay involved with their home high school activities and classmates, while gaining the necessary education and experience.

On a blustery and cold Saturday af-ternoon in Castalia, where the wind would play havoc on any balls hit in the air, Huron overcame a potentially disastrous seventh-inning collapse to win the opening round of the state softball tournament.
Going into the bottom of the fi fth inning, the two teams were tied at one a piece and Tiger pitcher Haley Corso was cruising through the Redskin line-up. Junior Lauren Volz had scored the only Huron run in the second inning while Port Clinton returned the fa-vor in the top of the fourth. But all that changed in the bottom of the fi fth …
Centerfi elder Caroline Es-tel got on with a walk and stole two bases to get to third. Meanwhile Melissa Moberg reached second base. Then Corso hit a double – scor-ing Estel and Moberg – to give the Tigers a 3-1 lead. On this play, the slight but fi ery Moberg absolutely leveled the Port Clinton third base-man, who paid for the mis-take of lingering in the base path. Following a body block
that would have made football Coach Legando proud, “Mo” quickly bounced up and continued on to score.
In the bottom of the sixth, Huron picked up what, at the time, looked to be simple insurance runs when Kate Weber walked, stole second and third
base, then was hit in by the young freshman catcher, Morgan Asberry. Abbey Cook then hit an infi eld single. The Tigers took a 5-1 lead on a passed ball. To open the seventh, Port Clin-ton loaded the bases aided by a Huron error. Another error, this time in the
outfi eld, allowed two runs to score, to make it 5-3. A two-out hit brought in the two tying runs.
In a very frustrating, dis-appointing moment for any team, tempers fl ared as the girls hit the dugout for the bottom of the seventh. But senior captain Moberg scolded her teammates, re-minding them of the task at hand. Then, as all good leaders like to do, reset the team’s focus by leading off with a sharp single to left fi eld. Haley Corso laid down a sacrifi ce bunt that moved her to second base. Lauren Volz knocked Mo in with her third hit of the day to quick-ly claim the fi rst round vic-tory, 6-5. Corso pitched the entire game and added 16 more strikeouts to give her a season total of 187. Huron’s overall record is now 10-13.
The varsity baseball teams surpassed last year’s win to-tal with a 7-6 victory over the visiting Margaretta Polar Bears at Fabens Park. The Tigers had to come up with a big four-run rally in the fi nal inning to overcome a three-run defi cit. Meanwhile, Huron pitcher Brandon Johnson, pitched seven solid innings for the win.
The Tigers struggled from the plate early on, fi nally getting their fi rst hits in the fourth inning. In the fi fth, down 3-0, Huron’s Nick But-ler (3 for 4) drove in two runs, and then Alex Ruf scored on a Polar Bear error to tie the game. Margaretta reclaimed the lead with a run in the sixth and two more scores in the top of the seventh.
Senior Joe Ramey started the game winning rally with a check swing ball that the opposing catcher threw into right fi eld. He would even-tually score on a wild pitch. Nick Butler then singled. Drew Enderle then sacri-fi ced himself to move Butler and Kyle Pisano into scoring position. Troy Delamatre battled the Polar Bear pitcher and eventually knocked in both runners to tie the game. He then proceeded to steal second and scored on the game winning hit by Joey Bogden.
“This was a great win for our team,” said Coach Dustin Kastor. “Troy Delamatre had a great last at-bat and Joey Bogden (2 for 3 with a walk) really came through in the seventh … I’m proud of my players for fi ghting all the way to the end.”

Tigers Bite Polar Bears in Seventh for Win
The big news of the week for the Lady Tigers was the win in the opening round of the state tournament over Port Clin-ton on Saturday. But it certainly wasn’t the only game for the girls. The team picked up two more SBC wins over SMCC Panthers and the Margaretta Polar Bears while falling to the Oak Harbor Rockets and the league leading Perkins Pirates.
The week opened with a 2-0 victory over the Panthers in Sandusky. Kelsey Koehler hit a two run double in the top of the seventh inning for the win. Hayley Corso fanned 15 Pan-thers and allowed just three hits on her way to her seventh win of the season.
Next up was a home game where the girls ran into a buzz saw of a pitcher from Perkins named Darcy Daniel. The im-pressive freshman held Huron to just two hits on her way to a 5-0 win. Lauren Volz and Kate Weber had the only base hits for the Tigers. After the game, a frustrated Coach Everman said: “We need to do a better job at the plate. We are looking at too many called third strikes. We need to start scoring runs or we won’t win in this conference.”
The team then traveled to Oak Harbor where they lost a heartbreaker, 2-0. Corso was the hard luck losing pitcher after giving up only four hits and picking up 11 more Ks. The Rockets’ Konieczny hit a two-run homer in the fi rst inning and that was all they needed for the win. The Tiger bats remained silent except for Corso’s two singles and Volz’s double.
It all came together for the Lady Tigers on Senior Night at Fabens Park. The victims were the Margaretta Polar Bears. The team honored their three senior captains: Melissa Mo-berg, Abbey Cook, and Hayley Corso. Huron scored seven runs on eight hits. Sophomore Kelsey Koehler and freshman catcher Morgan Asberry combined to go 4 for 6 with 4 RBIs
to lead the home team to a 7-2 victory. Corso pitched a gem, giving up no walks and fi ring 16 strikeouts for her part in the win. Seniors Moberg and Cook also got hits and scored on their special evening.
