Obituaries
Sound OffMr. Editor,Three of my last five letters were lost
before they found their way to sound off,
leading me to believe if I want a letter to get published I better not say anything nega-tive about our administration, the tourist,
or the business people.I am sorry I have not
been writing the type of letters you approve of, you see, I foolishly thought sound off was a col-umn where people could “sound off,” a column where they could question the ones they voted into office, a column where they could voice their own opinions. I had no idea it was a column for praises and thank yous only.
There are more than a few citizens that want my opinions, such as what do I think of the 6” grass and weed ordinance.
I am all for it, because now that our administra-tion has the authority, I believe we will see them use it, but not on some citizen that left his grass get 8” long, or an elderly
couple that is unable to mow their grass and can not afford to hire it done as often as they would like to.
I believe our administration should, can and will help these citizens by getting vol-unteers to cut their grass when they get a little behind.
They have no trouble getting volunteers to make things nicer for the tourists, so I can not believe they will have a problem getting volunteers to help our needy citi-zens after all, isn’t the citizens of Port Clin-ton the ones our administration cares the most about? Well, aren’t they?
If our administration is really serious about the grass and weeds ordinance, and wants to convince the citizens they intend to enforce it than they should first make an example of the big offenders.
I would like to know how our adminis-tration could bill a citizen a minimum of $170.00 if his grass gets over 6” long, when his neighbor has weeds and brush over 10” high.
Yes I am for this ordinance as long as it applies to everyone and not just the hom-eowner. Citizens be heard.

This is the Labor Day weekend, and many of you are probably thinking that the end of the summer season is upon us. Not so fast!!! Thanks to our July warm spell, the water temperature of Lake Erie is still in the mid- to upper 70s, and the lake effect we get is to keep our part of the country nice and warm and beautiful through the month of September and well into October.

Perry’s Victory and International Peace Memorial will commemorate the 198th anniversary of the “Battle of Lake Erie” during Historic Week-end Sept. 9-11.
“Historic Weekend is a time to re-member and honor the brave sailors who despite being outnumbered de-feated the British in a pivotal battle that shaped the future of the United States of America,” said Blanca Al-varez Stransky, Perry’s Victory and International Peace Memorial Su-perintendent. “To help us honor this important moment in American his-tory, we have invited living history interpreters to present a variety of entertaining and inspirational pro-grams for children and adults alike.”
The weekend-long historic celebra-tion begins at 7 p.m. Friday, Sept. 9, with the “Sunset Flag Retirement Ceremony” where Boy Scouts of America, American Legion Post 459 and National Park Service Rangers will demonstrate the proper proce-
dures for retiring flags flown at the park. Since the flags from Canada and Great Britain are also flown at the park, as a symbol of the lasting in-ternational peace between the United States and these two countries, these flags will also be rightfully honored and retired.
This year’s Historic Weekend cer-emony beginning at 3 p.m. will show-case the Native American’s role in the War of 1812 and the Battle of Lake Erie. Dr. Barbara Mann, assistant professor at the University of Toledo, Honors College, will be the guest speaker at the ceremony. Mann has written nine books on Native Ameri-cans, including “Land of the Three Miamis: A Traditional Narrative of the Iroquois in Ohio”. Capt. William Johnson, commanding officer of the USS Lake Erie, will provide special remarks at this year’s event. The USS Lake Erie is a Ticonderoga-class cruiser based in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
“Historic Weekend is a unique op-
portunity to re-evaluate the great fortunes that has been bestowed upon us as Americans. It is a time to rejoice in a strong and free America and to reflect on the value of life in a country that is peaceful, united, and surrounded by strong allies,” said Stransky.
This year’s festivities include histor-ic demonstrations, an ice cream so-cial, Historic Weekend parade, crafts and children activities like “A Sailor’s Life Then and Now” featuring the crew of the U.S.S. Lake Erie and 1812 sailors. Entertainment includes a per-formance by the Toledo Symphony at 6:30 p.m.
For information about Historic Weekend, call Perry’s Victory and International Peace Memorial at 419-285-2184. For information about other activities happening on South Bass Island during Historic Week-end, call the Put-in-Bay Chamber of Commerce at 419-285-2833.

The Ottawa, Sandusky, Seneca Joint Solid Waste District will be sponsoring a House-hold Hazardous Waste Collection from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday, Sept. 10. The col-lection time for last names A through M is 9 to 10:30 a.m.; last names N through Z will be accepted from 10:30 a.m. to noon.
In Ottawa County, items will be taken at the Ottawa County Fairgrounds on West Ohio 163, Oak Harbor. Residents are asked not to smoke and to stay in their vehicles while they are being unloaded at the col-lection.
The following paint and related products will be accepted during the collection in containers no larger than 5 gallons:
• Latex and oil based paint, sealers, prim-ers, coatings and spray paint aerosol cans
• Household pesticides (bug and rodent killers), Herbicides (weed killers),
• Varnish, polyurethane and shellacs, wood stains, primers and strippers, paint thinner, turpentine, kerosene and lighter fluid
• Household cleaners (oven and drain cleaner, and muriatic acid)
• Hand-held propane cylinders• Household batteries• Automotive fluids including antifreeze
and motor oil• Fluorescent bulbs and compact fluores-
cent bulbs• Mercury –liquids, and thermostatsNo construction materials (shingles) or
asbestos materials will be accepted. Any
paint or household hazardous waste con-tainer that is completely dry and empty can be disposed of in your regular trash if lid is removed.
This is a household collection only. Ma-terials from businesses or institutions will not be accepted. Also note that any paint can that is completely dry can be disposed of in your regular trash, if the lid is re-moved.
As a part of this collection you may bring your old mercury fever thermom-eter to the collection site and exchange it for a new digital thermometer while the District’s supply lasts.

The Port Clinton Women’s Club is holding its annual Tour of Homes from 1 to 4 p.m. Sept. 11. Proceeds from the tour — featuring historic himes on Perry and Second streets — will benefit Ottawa County Child Assault Prevention, Ottawa County Historical Society, PEO Scholarship and Port Clinton Women’s Club.
The Homes on the Tour are:• Jeff and Carol Morgan, 504 E.
Perry St• Mike and Bonnie Elias, 118 Ful-
ton St.• Duane and Martha Snyder, 426 E.
Second St.• Barb Ritter, 520 E. Second St.Tickets may be purchased ahead
of time at Bassett’s Market, Mary’s Blossom Shop or Rudder’s for $15. They may also be purchased the day of the event. For questions, call Jen-nifer Straziuso at 419-271-6015.
The homes: • 502 E. Perry St. — This historic
Perry Street home has captured the eyes of many for years. The home takes on the style of Richardsonian Romanesque and Beaux Arts Mix. Blueprints for this home are dated 1897, the completion date is listed as 1903, and the roof tile date is 1901. The Morgan home was built by George Oliver True. The True fam-ily also lived here before the Mor-gan’s. True passed this home on to his son Oliver True. In 1960’s Oliver True renovated the home into three apartments living in the downstairs and renting the two upstairs apart-ments. There are stories of the third floor being used as a basketball court, but there is no evidence of any hoops being hung. The Morgan children used to eagerly clean the at-
tic every August preparing for their Halloween party. So much has been done from electrical, plumbing, heating, wall placement, total redo of columns and front porch, roofs, copper wrapping of parapets, and a redo of the pink kitchen. You name it, the Morgan’s have done it. Over the years, the Morgan’s have done their best to restore this historically rich house into a home. They have put love, sweat, and money into this treasure for future generations.
• 118 Fulton St.— This home was built and moved to its current loca-tion in 1858 by the Kelley family. They moved it when they changed the path of the river in order to be closer to the river and the horse barn. It is referred to as the Moon House. Judge Moon had lived there previously. The current owner, Mike had his prom picture taken on the current staircase in the home. He was friends with Paul Moon, who lived in the home at the time. Mike and Bonnie are the seventh owners of the home.
There are many original parts to this home, including the summer kitchen, dining room, living room, the entire upstairs and the fireplace. Mike has converted the fireplace into a gas fireplace recently. Down from the laundry room there is a basement where the wall is cement-ed in. Rumor has it that this may have been a passageway for the Un-derground Railroad. Mike and Bon-nie enjoy spending their time on the screened in porch that faces Fulton Street and has excellent views of Lake Erie. As you tour this home, take note of the faces on the trees in the front of their home that can only
be seen from inside the house. • 426 E. Second St. — This beau-
tiful Victorian style home was built back in 1890. It is believed to have been built by the Anna York Fam-ily. There is also rumor that it was built for a doctor and his family to live in. The Snyder’s home has been well preserved by the current own-ers. There are 4 bedrooms and 2 ½ baths. Previous owners took down a wall upstairs which opened up one of the bedrooms into a television/sitting area. There was also a spiral staircase that was added by previ-ous owners. This staircase led way to a remodeled attic to make room for additional bedroom and sitting on the 3rd floor. Duane and Mar-tha are currently renovating rooms by pulling up carpet to refinish the original hardwood floors. This home has been very well taken care of throughout the years. It is a labor of love that the Snyder’s continue to restore little by little.
• 520 E. Second St. — This 2,100-square-foot historic home was built in 1913. The all-brick structure has an architectural style of late Victorian and early colonial. There is an original horse barn in the back yard, as with many homes on Second Street. Barb takes pic-tures of this barn throughout the year to preserve its beauty through-out the seasons. The floors through-out this home are beautiful hard-wood. As you tour this home take notice of the wonderful woodwork throughout, along with the pocket doors and wood pillars in the door-way as you enter the home.

Taste: This wine is comprised of a “Field Blend” which is grapes grown
together in the vineyard as opposed to being grown separately and blended
after harvest. This wine combines Zinfandel / Petite Sirah / Syrah / Carignane to
form a wonderfully smoky nose interwoven with blueberry, raspberry, and
kirsch. The palate is deeply concentrated with silky tannins and a rich,
multi-faceted juicy nish.
Cameron Con�dential: North Coast brands are being bought, sold, and
traded lately as vintners struggle to stay ahead of their obligations. The wines we
sourced from this deal make up a considerable part of the repositioning of a
particular ultra-premium Zinfandel and Zin-based blend producer that was sold
a year or so ago. As part of the deal one of the brands was discontinued
altogether and we purchased all of those wines and others from the �agship
brand as they sought to maintain the high-dollar price point by reducing
inventory. This is a classic deal for Cameron Hughes Wine but it’s also a
one-time deal as they severely cut back the 2010 contracts, so grab what you
can of these incredible values.

Cameron Con�dential: Lot 222 shows deft balance of incredible richness
and pitch-perfect balance. This wine walks that line beautifully and inspires big
kudos to winemakers Sam and Mike for the many weeks they toiled with these
and a multitude of other Chardonnay blends. This wine, with a similar base wine
to 209, is just unwinding in the bottle and will rapidly gain in complexity over the
next month or two before settling in for the next 4-5 years. Be careful not to
overchill this wine or at least pull it out of the fridge 20 minutes before you drink
it (as with most Chardonnay). Ideal temp is 55 degrees.

August 18 marked a day of change at the Nor’Easter Club. A purchase agreement for the club, located at 2801 Nor’Easter Cover, Drive, Port Clinton, was established in early 2010 between seller and long-time club owner, Wil-liam VanDerGiessen and Rick Stechschulte, member of the club and long-time northwest Ohio entrepreneur.
That agreement was finalized on Aug. 18 making Stech-schulte the sole owner of the club. In comments about the acquisition, Stechschulte thanked the developers of the club, previous ownership and managers, and the long list of the loyal members for their stewardship and support of the club over its 30-plus-year history. He further wished
VanDerGiessen all the best as he moved on to other pur-suits.
Stechschulte commented on the extensive renovations, estimated at more than $500,000, he’s undertaken at the club during the 18 months transition to his full ownership. He also outlined his commitment for continued re-invest-ment in club facilities, in his effort to make Nor’Easter Club the premier members’-only yacht and dining club on Ohio’s Lake Erie shore.
In closing, Stechschulte said he would be remiss if he didn’t take a moment to single out and thank designer Lisa Koehler for her tireless energy, patience and expertise in
helping with the club plans and renovations. Her keen eye and design sense has created the new Nor’Easter Club ex-perience.
The club was established in 1978 as a private alternative to the busy high-season traffic that more public venues suffer on and around Catawba Island. Club facilities in-clude the clubhouse with its three dining areas, lounge and outdoor deck; Olympic-size outdoor pool with large deck and pavilion snack bar; outdoor casual dining; new fitness center; and dockage with easy access to and from Lake Erie.
For information about the club, call 419-797-4466 or e-mail [email protected].

Buyers ready to start thinking about next year will be in luck when the largest in-water show on the Great Lakes opens in one of the region’s biggest boating markets this fall. The North American In-Water Boat Show will return to Cedar Point Sept. 14-18 and feature new pow-erboats, sailboats, accessories and equip-ment alongside quality pre-owned prod-uct and educational displays.
“It’s all about the location,” said show manager Ken Alvey. “The show is big be-cause it is in the heart of prime boating territory. This area has one of the highest densities of boats per acre of water in the entire Midwest and supports all sorts of on-the-water activities. Whether you like cruising, fishing, sailing or picnicking on a pontoon, we’re going to have something for you. There will be a boat for every budget and ev-ery pastime.”

Proceeds from the race will fund numerous wellness activities which include: wellness presentations to kinder-garten classes; second grade relays; healthy snack night at Bataan Memorial Elemen-tary School; middle school Wii tourna-ments; and Jefferson Dance Dance Revo-lution Fun Night.
Teams will meet at 5:45 p.m. on Oct. 8 at Minderman Marine to receive instruc-tions and their first clue; at 5:15 p.m. there will be a special information session just for “rookies” who did not participate in last year’s hunt. Participants must regis-ter and be 21 years of age and older. Cost for a team of 6 is $75. Clues will be given for teams to find their way with food, soft drinks and prizes provided.
Only 30 teams can participate. Registra-tion forms are available at all Port Clinton school buildings and online at www.pccsd.net under “News.”

The special meeting will be held at township hall, 5972 Port Clinton Eastern Road, in the lower meeting room.

This won’t happen overnight or by itself. Free com-munity papers will be making the case to local govern-ment entities that our competitive rates and strong loyal readership should earn our papers the people’s business. Publishers of free community papers urge their readers to contact their local officials, thus let-ting them hear from their constituents. If this happens, positive change in public notice will surely take place.
Schaffner Publications, Inc. publishes two weekly newspapers, The Beacon based in Port Clinton as well as the Huron Hometown News. It also publishes the North Coast Business Journal, serving the small busi-ness interests in Erie, Ottawa, Huron, Sandusky and Seneca Counties. John Schaffner, publisher of the three publications and President of Schaffner Publications, Inc., began his career as General Manager of the Port Clinton Press in 1977, following a short career in radio that began in 1969. He is a 1973 graduate of Bowling Green State University with a major in Radio/TV.
Schaffner began publishing The Beacon in February of 1983, and talks about the growth in the Free Com-munity Paper industry.
“With the onset of the Internet, many paid subscrip-tion newspapers have been hard hit, as readers have moved from the printed page to the newspaper web-site. Free Community Papers have not been as affected. Our papers have active and lively Internet websites, and we haven’t lost any newspaper circulation since the basis of free papers is saturation circulation and high readership.”
The latest audit backs up that claim. According to the Circulation Verification Council, an agent for the Mid Atlantic Community Papers Association classified network (MacNet), 98 percent of people in the news-papers’ communities indicate they receive their papers and 78 percent say that they read through those papers every week. The three publications boast circulation numbers more than 30,000 with more than two read-ers per copy. So, while paid circulation papers are suf-fering from dramatic readership and circulation losses, free community papers, like The Beacon and Huron Hometown News, are actually thriving.

contact with them.The state of Ohio’s Algae Awareness 101 website encour-
ages beach-goers to use common sense approaches to keeping family and pets safe:
• Before you go to a beach, check the state’s website www.ohioalgaeinfo.com to see if there is an algal bloom advi-sory.
• If you’re at a beach and you see surface scum or some-thing that looks like blue-green algae, report it to Ohio EPA by completing the HAB report form and emailing it to [email protected].
• Be alert and avoid unusual water conditions, especially
areas where there is floating scum or the water is generally discolored. Use common sense – when in doubt, stay out!
• Immediately rinse family members, pets and yourself after swimming in natural waters. HABs cannot always be seen, smelled or tasted.
• Ingesting any source of untreated water is unsafe, so never allow your family members or pets to drink lake or river water.
Although algae sometimes forms a layer of scum on top of the water, Reutter warns that this isn’t always the case.
“We’re having an algal bloom right now,” he said last week. But added that high winds had churned up the algae mixing it in and making it less visible.
One major cause of the HABS is nutrient loading. The nutrients, namely phosphorus, come from a variety of sources including fertilizer, manure and poor sewage treatment practices and are carried into the lake through sedimentation, runoff and open lake disposal of dredging materials.
“We have a whole lot of land draining into a small amount of water,” said Reutter. “And we are going to drink that water.”
Ruetter spoke to a group of area farmers last week dur-ing the Ottawa Soil and Water Conservation District’s Lake Erie Ag Tour. He explained the direct correlation be-tween the amount of phosphorus and the amount of algae and prompted those farmers to look at their practices and be proactive. But it isn’t just farmers who can make a dif-ference.
The Ohio Sea Grant’s factsheet on HABs suggests:• Using lawn and plant fertilizers sparingly• Regularly checking and maintaining systems• Preventing surface runoff• Not allowing large concentrations of Canada Geese to
set up residence. Their waste can cause excessive nutrients to enter waters.
• Maintaining native plants along the shoreline through-out the watershed to act as filters for runoff.
HAB AdvisoriesThe State has developed standards for posting of Ohio Recreational Use HAB Advisories. The advisories are:
• An algae bloom advisory will be posted for a recreational contact area once an algal bloom has been identified and the State has confirmed it is a harmful algal bloom capable of producing toxin. The public would be advised not to ingest water and avoid contact with surface scum.
• The public health advisory would be posted when tests conclude microcystin levels are at least six parts per billion (ppb). At this point, the public would be advised that swimming and wading are not recommended, water should not be swallowed and surface scum should be avoided.
• A no contact advisory would recommend the public to avoid all contact with the water at that location. A no contact advisory would be posted if test results show microcystin levels at least 20 ppb and there has been a report of human illness or pet death. If a no contact advisory is posted for a recreational contact area, the State may sample the lake to determine if an open-water no contact advisory should be posted.
Once an advisory is posted, the State will periodically sample until microcystin is below acceptable thresholds or the end of the beach season in Ohio.

Every year, since 2002, The Salvation Ar-my-Port Clinton Service Unit has offered a school supply assistance program (Tools for School) in August. This year the pro-gram served 607 local students, up from last year’s 595, with school supplies and a new backpack. Since this program was completely funded by donations, it was only made possible through the generos-ity of our local businesses and residents. The overwhelming success was also due to our local residents, businesses and organi-zations that donated funds including The Harry Stensen Memorial Fund and The Ottawa County Community Foundation Grant.
Thank you for all who have contributed funds, supplies and volunteer hours to this
program. We could not continue to help our children without your support.
The Salvation Army-Port Clinton Service Unit currently has additional supplies and book bags available to anyone who is still in need of these items.
For questions, to call the office at 419-732-2769 and speak with Director Mau-reen Saponari.
Brand new backpacks and bags of school supplies fill up the floors of the Salvation Army office in the Sutton Center during Tools for Schools distribution.

Ask any teacher the most important thing a child can do to increase their suc-cess in school and they will say, “read.” A group of Port Clinton City School District teachers and staff, both past and present, have been having fun with reading as well by forming a book club. This summer they selected the novel, “The Help” by Kathryn Stockett, which is also the source for the movie now in theaters.
On Aug. 17, they met to discuss the book, however, creative teachers can’t simply meet and discuss the book. They decided each should bring a recipe from the book they read set in Mississippi in 1962. Jane Taylor hosted the event and made southern fried chicken, Jody Gahn, Bataan Secretary, brought the chocolate pie and others brought various sides such as collard greens, bean salad, tea sand-wiches and iced tea. Nancy Kreulen-War-go, Title I reading teacher, even dressed the part as a southern housewife. An interesting twist since in the classroom Kreulen-Wargo has her students dress in character for Readers Theater and act out a story. After dinner and discussion, they all went to Sandusky to watch the movie and were pleased with how closely the sto-ryline followed the novel.
The book club was formed just more than a year ago and has been meeting every four to six weeks. Members of the group suggest books and then set the deadline to discuss the book. Jody Gahn said the book club “has inspired me to read books I normally wouldn’t.” They have read a variety of subjects and various authors.
At another book club meeting they in-vited fellow faculty member, Ty Roth, author of “So Shelly” to meet and join in on the discussion after reading his novel.
In addition to Taylor, Gahn and Kreulen-Wargo, other book club members include: Jodi Knoch, Resource Intervention Spe-cialist; Karen Shifflet, first grade teacher; Rosemarie Kuharick, kindergarten teach-er; Diane Rosiar, resource intervention specialist; Brenda Hetrick, Title I reading teacher; Barb Cammann, school nurse; and former faculty members Molly Sass and Donna Chudy.
This group of educators has been role models to their students by finding joy in reading. “We practice what we preach,” Taylor said. “We want our students to read and have fun with reading and we are too.”
The book club, made of Port Clinton City School staff members past and present, in-cludes Jody Gahn (left), Barb Cammann, Nancy Kreulen Wargo, Karen Shifflet, Brenda Hetrick, Jane Taylor, Diane Rosiar, Rosemarie Kuharick, Molly Sass and Donna Chudy.

ics category for sixth-, seventh- and eighth-graders with 70.5 percent, 73.2 percent and 73 percent respectively. Also below the requirement was eight-grade science with a score of 57.4 percent.
Performance IndexAccording to the report cards, the Per-
formance Index reflects the achievement of every student enrolled for the full aca-demic year. The weighted average includes all tested subjects, grades and untested stu-dents and can be compared across years to show achievement trends within the dis-trict. Results scale from 0 to 120.
• B-C-S: 100.8, up from 97.9 for 2009-2010
• Danbury: 100.8, up from 98.6 for 2009-2010
• PC: 96.2, up from 94.6 for 2009-2010
Value-added measureThis rating represents the progress made
since last school year. There are three possi-ble scores: above expected growth, met ex-pected growth or below expected growth.
All three districts met expected growth.
Adequate Yearly ProgressThis federal measure requires that each
school meet goals set for reading and mathematics proficiency and participa-tion, attendance rate and graduation rate. The goals are applied to a variety of groups based on race, ability and economics. If any group falls below the goal, the entire district does not meet the AYP standard. Not meeting AYP for consecutive years will have both federal and state consequences.
All three districts met AYP standards.
School designationsEach school also earns a designation in
the report card process.• Excellent with Distinction: R.C. Waters

The Port Clinton Redskins launched their season on the road on Friday and got going early and late on the way to a 28-12 win over Woodmore. Statistically, it was an extremely impressive performance of-fensively as they rolled up nearly 400 yards on the ground. Diante Laurel, who played hurt most of the way, was the big horse for the Redskins with over 200 yards rushing in the game on 24 carries.
Andrew Leidheiser got the start for the Redskins at quarterback and acquitted himself very well…no turnovers, throwing for one touchdown and rushing for two. He also ran the ball for nearly 100 yards.
“We played as well as we could on of-fense,” said PC Coach Toby Hammond on Tuesday. “We told our kids that our best defense would be our offense in that we had to keep the ball away from them.” That happens when your offense is chewing up the clock with a ground game that goes up and down the field, which is exactly what Hammond’s team did.
Hammond had big-time praise for his veteran offensive line…Cory Colston, Rob Beck, Nick Leone, Chounard Stransky and Ben Petersen. “This is the best o-line we have had since I’ve been here,” Ham-mond said, adding “many returning start-ers there.
On the down side, Diante Laurel had a number of leg problems, from a cramp to a twisted ankle but played through it. Said Hammond, “X-Rays were negative but we’ll see about how he feels on Friday.”
The Redskins play John Marshall from Cleveland in their home opener at True Lay Stadium Friday night (games now start at 7 p.m.). John Marshall pounded on Toledo Scott last Friday and will bring some things the Redskins don’t normally see. “They are athletic and fast,” Hammond said about Friday’s opponent. “Those are things that we just can’t simulate in practice.”

If there was ever any doubt about how good Oak Harbor football might be this year, it got answered on Springfield’s turf in Holland on Friday night.
The Rockets put up 339 total yards and 17 first downs en route to a 23-10 non-conference win over the Blue Devils, a team that is usually a contender in the Northern Lakes League.
Oak Harbor running back Mark Ko-nieczny rushed for 206 yards on 33 carries and one touchdown in the Rocket victory. Meanwhile, quarterback Brian Mallernee completed 9-of-15 passes for 65 yards with one touchdown and one interception plus he added 61 yards rushing on 10 carries.
Helping the Rockets was a 75-yard kick-off return by Austin Weigand and a 76-yard return by Konieczny.
Springfield got on the board first when Jared Williams ran for a 56-yard touch-down run with 8:18 remaining in the first quarter. Devon Burns added the conver-sion kick to give the Blue Devils an early 7-0 lead.
But Oak Harbor responded, scoring on a 48-yard touchdown run by Konieczny with 2:58 left in the first. J.J. Rathbun add-ed the conversion kick and the score was tied at 7-all.

SPECIAL FIRING NOTICE 2011 BY J. PATRICK EAKEN
Danbury football opened a 30-0 lead over Fostoria St. Wendelin and then held on for a 43-24 victory over the Mohawks at Fostoria Memorial Stadium Saturday night.
It is the first time in 13 years Dan-bury football has started the season 1-0.
“I learned that these guys are com-mitted and they knew what was at stake,” said Danbury coach Tim Hef-fernan. “It’s been 13 years…and some of these guys were barely alive when that happened, so it’s a big night for us.”
Led by returning All-Ohio senior quarterback Lucas Kennedy, the Lak-ers amassed 328 yards on the ground and 132 in the air for 460 total yards.
“It feels great. Coach has been talk-ing about how we haven’t started off 1-0 in 13 years. It’s great being part of this team and on top tonight, but there are a lot of things we have to work on,” Kennedy said. “We gave up 24 points and we let them hang around a lot. If we want to have a winning season, we can’t do that. We have to shut out teams early.”
Kennedy completed 7-of-14 passes in the first half to account for all the Laker’s yardage through the air. But, he threw two interceptions and no completions in six second half at-tempts as the Mohawks found their offense and defense.
Coach Heffernan blames his team’s execution for its poor second half passing.
“We saw some things defensively
that we thought we could take advan-tage of and we were not able to ex-ecute that well in the passing game,” Heffernan said. “Clearly, that’s defi-nitely something we need to work on. You know, its first game mistakes — definitely something we need to fix.”
Kennedy also ran for 164 yards on 18 carries, but had trouble with cramps throughout the game. Despite the hu-midity, he still contributed 296 total yards to Danbury’s cause.
“I kept cramping up in both of my calves. It was terrible,” Kennedy said. “We definitely have to get in better shape. I know I was tired in the first quarter and everybody else was dog-ging it. We’ve got to play better than that.”
Heffernan said, “He (Kennedy) wasn’t hurt at all — just a little slug-gish. It’s game one and everybody seemed to be cramping up. That was a sort of strange phenomenon, but he was not hurt in any way.”
Danbury had five other running backs contribute in a big way, only one of them was not exactly a back. Big 6-foot-1, 214 pound No. 53 team captain Justin Tester, normally a se-nior offensive tackle, played “Refrig-erator” on a fourth down fake punt play, stiff arming and barreling over one Mohawk defender on his way to a 35-yard gain and a first down.
Sophomore tailback Cody German had 77 yards on 10 carries, freshman receiver Taylon Molnar carried the ball nine times for 31 yards, junior wingback Brandon Bahnsen had 20 yards on eight carries, and sopho-
more fullback Cooper Eller had 15 yards on four attempts.
German was Kennedy’s most popu-lar receiver, catching four passes for 51 yards. Senior wide receiver Cory Schenk had two catches for 77 yards and Bahnsen had one catch for four yards.
It took Danbury four possessions to score. On the first, the Lakers reached the FSW 11-yard line, but stalled on a fourth-and-7. The next two saw lost fumbles, including the first one recovered by the FSW coach’s (Bill Hrabak) son, freshman defensive end Zac Hrabak.
Finally, on possession No. 4, which started in the second quarter, the Lak-ers found paydirt. A seven-play drive was capped by a three-yard run from the four-yard line by Cooper, but the fullback fumbled the ball into the end zone where it was recovered by freshman wide receiver Caleb Gerber for six points. Kennedy ran the two-point conversion to put Danbury up 8-0 with 8:43 remaining in the first half.
FSW sent a snap over the punter’s head on its ensuing possession and Danbury took over at the Mohawk 17-yard line. After a 12-yard pass from Kennedy to German, Kennedy ran over a few people on his way to a five-yard touchdown. Kennedy com-pleted a conversion pass to Bahnsen, giving the Lakers a 16-0 lead.
After the kickoff, a Laker intercep-tion gave Danbury the football at the FSW 9-yard line. Four plays later, German ran for six points from two yards out with 6:37 left in the first half. Kennedy’s conversion pass to Bahnsen was complete, but FSW ju-nior defensive back Austin Reinhart
10-7 with 7:41 remaining until halftime. The three-point lead stood until intermission.
Neither team scored in the third, but the fourth quarter became a slugfest with the game on the line. Oak Harbor scored first on a six-yard TD pass from Brian Mallernee to Joey Mallernee just four seconds into the fourth period but the conversion kick failed, leaving Oak Harbor with a 16-7 lead.
Burns brought Springfield back to within a touchdown by kicking a 25-yard field goal with 4:14 remaining in the game.
But Oak Harbor put the game on ice when Brian Mallernee went on an 8-yard touchdown jaunt with 1:31 left. Rathbun added the conversion kick and the scoring ended there.
For Oak Harbor, Mitch Hayslett had four years on one rushing attempt, and Alex Bergman had one carry for three yards. Austin Weigand was Brian Mallernee’s favor-ite receiver, catching four passes for 33 yards. Konieczny and Greg Haar each had a catch good for 13 yards, Jamie Balboa had a catch for four yards, and Hayslett had one reception that netted a minus-four yards.
Springfield had nine first downs, 126 yards rushing and 98 passing. The Blue Devils punted five times, Oak Harbor punted only once. Oak Harbor completed 5-of-12 third downs, Springfield 3-of-10 and the two teams combined had three fourth down conversion attempts and could not convert any.
For Springfield, Clay Fink completed 6-of-123 passes for 98 yards, including a 19-yard completion to Williams. Williams caught three passes for 41 yards, Blake Rudolph had one catch for 36 yards, Braxton Hayes had a reception for 13 yards, and Ben Steedman caught one pass for eight yards.
Rushing, the Blue Devil’s Kyle Ruiz carried the ball 12 times for 51 yards, Williams had eight carries for 47 yards plus he had a 40-yard kickoff return, Fink had nine carries for 26 yards, and Rudolph had one carry for two yards. Defensively, Marquan Hodge had an interception for Springfield.
Oak Harbor’s defense was led by Adam Losie, who had two solo tackles, one tackle for a loss, one sack, and seven assists, and Allen Boss, who had four solos and five assists. Joey Mallernee had two solos, six assists, one sack and re-covered a fumble and Austin Weigand had three solos and five assists. Jamie Balboa had three solos, three assists, and forced a fumble, and Alex Bergman had three solos and three assists. Brian Mallernee had one solo and four as-sists.

made the tackle one yard short of the end zone.
Early in the second half, Danbury tacked on two more points when it pushed FSW’s offense to inside its own 10-yard line, and then on a punt attempt the Mohawk snap went over the kicker’s head and out of the end zone.
After FSW punted following the safety, it took a 51-yard touchdown scamper by Kennedy to put Danbury up 30-0. Then, the Mohawks found their mojo.
It started when Reinhart returned the kickoff 80 yards for a TD with 8:01 remain-ing in the third quarter. After a failed pass on the conversion, Danbury still led 30-6.
Only 32 seconds showed on the clock in the third period when FSW junior quarter-back Zach Miller threw a 42-yard comple-tion to senior wide receiver Alex Shontz, setting up a six-yard touchdown run by Reinhart. Another failed pass on the con-version left the score 30-12.
After the kickoff, a Kennedy pass was in-
tercepted by Reinhart, who returned the football 14 yards to the FSW 39. On the first play of the fourth quarter, Miller threw a 60-yard TD bomb to Reinhart, leading him perfectly. Now we’re at 30-18 with 11:50 still left to play.
But Danbury went on an 8-play, 65-yard drive, highlighted by a 36-yard run by Ger-man in which Reinhart made the TD-sav-ing tackle. Four plays later, Kennedy scored from 12 yards, putting Danbury back up by three touchdowns, 36-18, with 8:35 re-maining.
FSW went on one final 12-play, 59 yard drive with Miller scoring on a QB sneak from one yard out with 3:23 left in the game.
Danbury came right back on its next pos-session, capped by Kennedy’s 38-yard TD run with 1:52 remaining. A conversion kick gave the game its final score — 43-28.
This Friday night Danbury hosts the Woodward Polar Bears out of the Toledo City League. Woodward lost its season opener, 46-0, to Sheffield Brookside last week.
