Smock then laid down a sac-bunt
to advance Hurst to third base.
Angelica Sack grounded out for
the second out of the inning to
bring Sam Hamski to the plate
with two outs. Hamski delivered
with a two-out single to give the
Falcons the 3-2 win.
Jefferson was able to score the
first run of the game in the bottom
of the first inning as Sam Hamski
and Maggie Moore hit back-toback singles. NDCL looked to get
out of the inning by turning a
double play off the bat of Alyssa
Irons. However, Hamski was able
to score on a passed ball to give
the Falcons a 1-0 lead. Kaycee
Fusco also singled in the inning,
but Maura Delaney got the final
out on a pop-up.
NDCL took the lead in the top
of the fourth inning by scoring two
runs. NDCL set themselves up for
a big inning with four baserunners,
but only two runs. Julia Gliebe
drew a walk to start the inning,
but was caught stealing. Camielle
Pollutro then reached on an error
with a sharp grounder to third
base. Irons struck out the next bat-

“We had a great off season with our players. Our seniors stepped up
in many ways,” he added.
“We had clutch hitting and pitching. Both Taylor Miller and Jeremy
Cook our senior pitchers for us,” he said.
“Back in November I talked to the group and asked ‘What’s our goal
this year?” he said.
“They all said CVC champs and win 70 percent of our games. So we
asked ‘What’s it going to take to get that?” Grdina added.
They put together team goals of having 60 percent quality at bats,
throw 60 percent strikes, and have a 2 to 1 ratio of strikeouts to walks.
“It has been terrific. We are a little over 2 to 1 on the strikeouts to
walks,” Grdina added.
“It’s been great. We won a big game yesterday versus Chardon,” he
added.
Back to the softball side and Medlen spoke about the keys for their
team to step it up this year.
“Care about your teammates more then yourself. Last year was
our first year and they did buy into it but we were still individuals,”
Medlen said.
“Last year to this year has been more fun. They buy into the process.
It has been fun to watch,” he added.
“They realize that if we hustle coach doesn’t say anything. Everything
else is in place. Everyone’s bought into it. Everyone put all aside for
the team,” Medlen added.
“Actually we call it a family not a team,” he said.
The Lady Pirates have only lost one game in Ohio, with 2 of their
losses coming on a trip to Myrtle Beach at the beginning of the season.
“We played Madison and got beat up hard. It made us realize what
we need to work on. We had a team meeting, and we reflected on the
good things and the things to work on,” Medlen added.

Zimmerman, Watson, Fawcett, Prosser,
and Sergeff, all champions, win features
It was “Driver Appreciation Night” at Raceway 7
with several racing-related
prizes given out to drivers
in all classes including gift
certificates and various racing parts including fuel, oil,
shocks, brakes, and related
items. On track the racing
was as hot as ever on the
reconfigured oval. Several
hats and tee-shirts were
thrown into the crowd during intermission for the
fans. Feature events all went
to former class champions
with Kyle Zimmerman (Evergreen Lake Park Campground CARS Crate Late
Models) and Joel Watson
(Bonnell’s Collision Center
E-Mods) leading from flag
to flag. Defending champion
Shawn Fawcett took over at
the front on lap three of the
Campbell’s Mini Storage
Street Stock finale while
defending Bonnell’s Auto
Group Economod champion
Rick Prosser grabbed the
lead on a late race restart
in their caution-marred feature.
The Bonnell Collision
Center E-Mod feature was
up first with defending and
two-time champion Percy
McDonald starting from the
pole with many time champion Joel Watson outside
front row. Watson jumped
into the early lead over
McDonald with Troy Johnson third. With two laps
complete veteran Bill Taylor spun into the infield on
the back chute, slowing the
field under caution. After
green Dennis Lunger came
to third and began challenging for the runner-up spot
while Watson was opening a
substantial lead, nearly half
a straight at five complete
when Bruce Powell and Jeff
Johnson spun in turn four,
again slowing the event.
Lunger immediately came to
second after green but Watson was again driving away.
With eight complete Josh
Ferry, Josh McDonald, and
Bill Taylor piled up in turn
four. At halfway Watson led
Lunger, Percy McDonald,
Troy Johnson, and Bud Watson. With thirteen complete
Lunger came to a halt in
turn one and needed towed
from the track with apparent mechanical problems.
With four laps remaining
caution mysteriously appeared. For the five lap run
to the checkers Joel Watson
led Percy McDonald, Justin
Carlson, Troy Johnson, and
Cale Crocker back to the
green. Crocker spun in turn
four with two left, setting up
another restart. The final
yellow appeared at the white
flag when Gary Sullivan
spun coming out of turn four.
Watson then went on to the
win, his second in the three
week old season, over McDonald, Johnson, Carlson,
and Jesse Gould. The win
was the thirty-fourth E-Mod
win for Watson.
The McDonald Sand &
Gravel Mini Stocks were
brought to green by Hoyt
Mihalak and Derrick Tuttle
with two-time winner and
points leader Jason Easler
starting back in twelfth
spot for the twelve-lap main
event. Mihalak led the first
lap and was leading Kyle
Adkins and Jake Shipman when Derrick Tuttle
slowed to a stop on the back
straightaway with three
complete. Two cars spun in
turn four before another lap
was complete. At halfway
Mihalak was still leading
over Bud Sergeff, Casey Harmon, Jason Easler, and Jake
Shipman. With three laps
remaining Shawn McBride
slammed the wall hard in
turn four, bringing the red
flag over the race. He was
uninformed but fluid poured
from the car, necessitating
a lengthy cleanup. For the
three laps remaining the
order was Mihalak, Sergeff,
Casey Harmon, Easler, and
Shipman. Harmon came to
second at green but Sergeff
got back to second by the
end of one lap under green.
Zoey Gill then hit the wall,
dropping debris and again
slowing the field. On the
restart Harmon got by the
leaders and then the top
three ran three wide down
the back straight on the
final lap. Coming off turn
four for the checkers Sergeff
edged ahead, winning his
twentieth Raceway 7 feature
over Mihalak and Harmon
but Harmon was penalized
two position for “jumping”
a restart. Jason Easler was
third, and Shipman fourth.
The Campbell’s Mini
Storage Street Stocks were
brought to green by heat
winner Russell Byler and
Chris McGuire. Byler led lap
one with defending champion Shawn Fawcett coming to
second. Fawcett was leading
after two laps with Chris McGuire now second and Don
McGuire third. Fourth running Tony Marotto spun in
turn four and was collected
by Byler, who had fallen to
fifth. Chris McGuire began
challenging for the lead at
lap five but a debris caution slowed the event on lap
six. Before another lap was
in the books Byler spun in
turn four, again slowing the
race. Coming to the end of
lap thirteen Chris McGuire
spun after contact from a
lapped machine, collecting
Tony Marotto. With one lap
remaining Byler again spun
in turn four, setting up a
single lap dash for the checkers. After green again flew
2015 champion Fawcett, in
his first appearance of the
season, went on to the win
over Don McGuire, Chris
McGuire, Pat Fielding, and
Marotto. It was Fawcett’s
eleventh career win.
The Bonnell Auto Group
Economods started the biggest field in their history
with twenty five starters
for their fifteen lap feature.
Tyler Frankenberry and
Kyle Fellow brought the field
to green but Josh Mueller
and Brandon Blackshear
got together in turn four
negating the start. Frankenberry again led from green
with Fellows, Harmon, and
Chaddock trailing. Chaddock came to third at the
end of three laps. At the end
of four laps Chaddock was
second but Frankenberry
had a sizable lead. At six
complete Haley Lapcevish
spun in turn three, slowing the event and erasing
Frankenberry’s lead. On the
third attempt to get the race
restarted three cars piled up
in turn three but the leaders had completed the lap.
With the race becoming a
“caution-fest” the decision
was made to restart single
file. Frankenberry led past
the halfway but spun in turn
four, turning the lead over
to Chaddock with Harmon
now second and defending
champion Rick Prosser third
after starting ninth. Under
the yellow flag Chaddock
pulled to the pit. Prosser
then grabbed the lead at the
start line, leading for just
one lap before yet another
yellow flag flew. Two more
cautions slowed Prosser’s
march to his second win
of the season over Brian
Toto,Mitch Wright, opening
night winner Steve Haefke,
and Mike Harmon.
The final event of the
evening was the Evergreen
Lake Park Campground
CARS Crate Late Models
with Alex Anderson and
Travis Martineau leading
the way to Roger Osburn’s
green flag. On the initial
start Ed Bolyard spun up
against the turn one rail
necessitating a compete
restart. Anderson led lap
one with former champion
Kyle Zimmerman coming to
second from third. Anderson
led after green with Zimmerman challenging and getting
by on the back straight.
Khole Wanzer spun in turn
four on lap three bringing
yellow again. Zimmerman
led after five laps with Anderson now second, Breyton
Santee, up from ninth on the
grid, Dennis Lunger, and
Darrell Bossard. At halfway
Zimmerman had a quarter
lap lead over Anderson who
was being challenged by
Santee. Travis Martineau
spun in turn two again slowing the race and erasing
Zimmerman’s lead. Santee
came to second at green
with Lunger also getting
by Anderson before another
lap was in. Anderson then
spun with eleven complete.
Bossard was penalized to
the rear for rough driving
in the Anderson spin. With
Santee and Lunger right on
the leader’s rear bumper the
race resumed with Lunger
slipping high in turn two and
losing seven spots. Up front
Zimmerman was extending
his lead over Santee with
Wendell Pinckney third,
Chris Withers fourth, and
Bossard back up to fifth.
Zimmerman built up a several car length lead at the
checkers with the top five
remaining the same.

regular season, the GRA Eagles earned impressive wins
against Horizon Science

conference as the postseason
tournament play began. The
semi-final game was against
second seeded St. John High
School, who took both games
in the regular season. With

Brian ’16, the GRA Eagles
celebrated a no-hitter and a
final score of 5-0 to advance
to the finals against Lawrence School.

the end of the first inning.
From there, the GRA Eagles

scoring nine runs in six innings, while pitcher Austin
’17 worked the entire game,
striking out ten batters.
Coach Ballentine stated, “I
know the talent our team
has, both as individuals and
together as a team, it was
just a matter of putting it
all together. The players got
hot at the right time and had
an impressive tournament.
Our athletes approached the
tournament with a dedication to win, even against
teams the Eagles fell to
during regular season play.”

Skippers keep dancing

FAIRPORT HARBOR
- On a chilly Wednesday
afternoon the Fairport Skippers defeated the Warren
JFK Eagles 11 to 8 to become the District IV Finals
Champions!
Although the field site
was at Fairport, the Skippers (15-13) were the away
team.
Caleb Hites led off with
a single, and advanced on
two wild throws. Kyle Mikitin connected on a 1 RBI
groundout to score the first
run of the game and put the
Skippers up 1-0 at the top of
the first inning.
Ryan Thomas got on base
by a fielding error and advanced on a wild throw, and
then number Anthony Marcelli connected on a single,
and also advanced on a wild
throw also.
But the Eagles in navy
blue and white (10-12)
played tough and starter
Ryan Lee got the next two
outs to leave twoFairport
runners on at second and
third base, ending with a
strikeout for the third and
final out of the top half of
the first.
Lee on the day pitched 3
innings and threw 22 balls
and 34 strikes for a total of
56 pitches, 2 strikeouts and
1 walk, and 2 hits on 4 runs.
Only one Warren JFK
runner would get on at the
bottom of the first, so Fairport was up 1-0 through one
full inning played.
A quick 1, 2, 3 inning
followed for Warren JFK
defensively, getting the third
out a ground ball hit by Fairport’s Nathan Bagin that he
almost beat out the throw,
but the Eagles would get the
out to get out of the inning.

up the middle that was too
tough to get the throw to
first base, but Mikitin made
a nice bobble so as to not lose
the ball into the outfield. Joe
Millard would single, but the
Skippers defensively would
get both out, at second and
third base respectively.
This kept the game at
1-0 for Fairport. At the top
of the third inning Fairport
would get some nice hits on
the ball, but went 1, 2, 3. A
lineout for the first out was
a nice play made by Eagle
third basemen Hadley, and
then two batters later a nice
ground out play was made
by second basemen Drew
Mendik.
The Eagles would get
one on at the bottom of the
third inning but the Skippers would get out of it this
time ending the inning with
a nice play by pitcher Luke
Honkala on the fielding
move for the ground out.
Honkala started for Fairport and pitched 4 innings
and threw 32 balls and 40
strikes for a total of 72 pitches, with 5 strikeouts and 1
walk, and gave up 2 runs on
2 hits for the day.
So after three full innings
of play Fairport was up
1-0 in what seemed to be a
pitcher’s duel.
Well head to the fourth
inning and throw the pitcher’s duel out the window!
At the top of the fourth the
district 4 finals became a
slugfest!
Marcelli and Tanner
Nahorniak would both get
on base and then Hunter
Garisek drew a walk. With
the bases loaded number
4 Jeff Bish sliced a 2 RBI
single to right field to crack
through the game! Now Fairport was up 3-0.
Tyler Frankenberry
would walk and then Bagin
would bring one more home
with a 1 RBI ground out, to
make it all 4-0.
Fairport would add one
more as Hites would walk
and Mikitin would hit a 1
RBI fly out, so at the end of
the top of the fourth inning
of play Fairport stormed out
to a 5-0 lead, after a four run
fourth!
While scoring four they
did leave two runners on
base to end the inning. The
Eagles bats would wake up

fourth inning.

later advance on a wild pitch
to put the Eagles up on the
scoreboard now down 5-1.
Two batters later Hadley
would connect on a 1 RBI
groundout to make it 5-2.
Millard would get on base
with a fielding error and
steal second, but the Skippers got out of the jam with
an inning ending strikeout
to keep the score in their
favor now 5-2.
It was now the Eagles
scoring 2 and leaving 2 on
base to end the bottom half
of the fourth inning of play.
So after batting through
their whole lineup at the
top of the fourth, Fairport
almost replicated that at the
top of the fifth inning.
Marcelli would lead off
with a single and would advance on both a wild throw
and a wild pitch. Nahorniak
would connect on a 1 RBI fly
out to make it all 6-2.
Garisek would walk for
the second inning in a row
and then Bish would hit a
single and advance on a wild
pitch. Next up Frankenberry
would smack a 2 RBI double
to pull Fairport further away
with the lead now up 8-2.
Again while scoring three
the Skippers would leave 2
base runners on to end the
top half of the fifth inning
of play.
The Eagles would respond kindly with only 1 out
Alec Berzynski would walk
and steal a base. Mendik
would get on base by a fielding error and a run would
score home on wild throw to
make it 8-3 now. Then Lee
would slice a single for 1 RBI
to make the game 8-4 now.
Lee would steal a base
and then two batters later
Greg Valent would hit a 1
RBI single nicely down the
third base line, so now it
was all 8-5.
Hadley would hit a hard
single up the middle, but it
was again the Eagles turn
to score but leave runners
on, this time scoring 3 more
runs and leaving two out on.
The momentum fully
flipped in the Eagles favor,
fresh off of two good scoring
innings they finally shut
down the Skippers at the top
of the sixth inning.
For the two previous innings all they were able to do
was keep up with the Skippers as they were scoring
too, and more. But a 1, 2, 3
outing helped further Warren JFK’s energy filled comeback including the third out
being a nice fielding play on
a long deep fly ball that was
caught in left field.
So to the bottom of the
sixth inning and Michael
Klaben would connect on a
single after a dropped third
strike, and then Niall McGee
would connect on a perfect
bunt single. Both would advance on a wild throw and
get into scoring position.
Berzynski would smack
the rawhide out of the ball
on a 2 RBI double to deep
left center field, and all of
a sudden this was a 1 run
district 4 finals game, now
only down 8-7!
Mendik would get on
base by a fielding error and
a run would score home to
tie the game all up at 8! But
then Mendik was tagged
out stealing at first base.
They would get a single and
another stolen base, but
Fairport would get the next
two batters out with a pop
out and a strikeout.
So the district IV finals
came down to the seventh
inning. At the top of the
seventh Fairport needed a
comeback and they got one,
and won!
Garisek walked for the
third straight at bat, and
Bish advanced him around
the bases with a ground out
bunt. Frankenberry would
walk and then Bagin hit a
great 2 RBI double to put
Fairport up 10-8!
Next batter up was lead
off hitter Hites who would
connect on a big time 1 RBI
double to deep center field!
The Skippers would score
and take an 11-8 lead, and
the game’s eventual final
score to the bottom half of
the inning.
Bottom of the seventh
and the Eagles hit a ground
out to the pitcher. Both
teams used four pitchers on
the day in a wild contest.
Millard would connect on
a single and later advance
on a wild pitch but then
fourth pitcher Hites dug in
and struck out the final two
batters of the game much to
the elation of the new district 4 finals champions the
Fairport Skippers!
Hites pitched 1 inning for
the win and threw 9 strikes
and 5 balls for a total of 14
pitches with 2 strikeouts and
only gave up 1hit.
“We gave up five unearned runs,” Fairport head
coach Mike Ondo said on a
wild day.

8-2,” he added.
On the day Fairport gave
up four base runners to fielding errors, and the Eagles
gave up 1.
“We couldn’t put em’
away, give em’ credit,” Ondo
said of the Eagles.
But the persistence and
tough schedule throughout
the year helped Fairport
succeed.
“All year long we only
played four division four opponents. That helps us be in
ball games. We have a large
conference with division II
schools, so it wasn’t anything
we haven’t seen,” Ondo said.
“He threw well,” he said
of starter Luke Honkala’s
four innings that allowed the
gray and burgundy Fairport
to get ahead early.
“Nathan got a big bunt,”
Ondo mentioned of an offensive big play for them.
“This is our 12th district
finals. But for these kids
Fairport’s a little different,
this is their first success. I
am so proud,” Ondo said.
Garisek led the way offensively for the Skippers going
0-for-1 with 3 walks and 3
runs scored home, Bish who
went 2-for-4 with 2 RBI and
2 runs scored home, Frankenberry who went 1-for-2
with 2 walks, 1 double, and
1 run scored home, Bagin
who went 1-for-3 with 1
walk, 3 RBI, 1 double and 1
scored home, and Hites who
in addition to pitching, went
2-for-4 with 1 walk, 1 RBI,
and 1 run scored home, and
also 1 double.
The four pitchers were
Honkala, followed by Ryan
Thomas who pitcher 2/3 of an
inning, and Nahorniak who
pitched 1 and 1/3 innings,
before Hites pitched the final
inning for the win.
The Eagles were led by
Berzynski who went 1-for3 with 1 walk, 1 double, 2
RBI and 2 runs scored home
offensively, Ryan Lee who
went 2-for-2 with 2 runs
scored home, 2 stolen bases,
and 1 RBI, and Hadley who
went 2-for-3 with 1 RBI, and
1 walk.
They had four pitchers
also on the day starting
with Lee who pitched 3 innings, then Ross DeSalvo
who pitched 1 1/3 innings
of baseball, Millard who
pitched 2/3 of an inning, and
Mendik who pitched 1 full
inning of play.
“I thought we had momentum at 8-8,” Warren
JFK head coach Don Lee
said.
“They battled back,” he
said of his team.
“They battled yesterday
at Mathews,” he said of
Fairport.
“It didn’t go our way,” he
added.
“I’m proud of kids. I only
lose 3 seniors,” Lee added.
“I hope so,” he said of seeing his team come back and
go far next year and season.
Fairport capped off a
great week defeating the
number 1 seed Vienna
Mathews 10-5 on Tuesday,
and then winning the district 4 finals Wednesday 11-8

FAIRPORT HARBOR – The Fairport Harding Skippers
hosted the Mathews Mustangs in a recent tournament
game. Mathews took an early 5-0 lead, but Fairport Harding rallied for 8 runs in the fifth inning. Fairport added a
pair of late insurance runs to win the game 10-5.
Caleb Hites started on the mound for Fairport Harding,
while Bryan Leipply toed the rubber for Mathews.
Mathews was able to score the first runs of the game in
the second inning as Bryan Leippply led off the inning with
a single. Chris Ritz was then hit by a pitch and both runners were bunted over by Jordan Brown. Leipply eventually
scored on a passed ball for the first run of the game. Mitch
Goff then made it 2-0 with an RBI groundout.
The Mustangs added to their lead with three runs in the
third inning. Rob Hemlick reached on an error and Dan
Canter drew a walk to start the inning. Ian Degaten would
lay down another bunt for the Mustangs to move both runners into scoring position. Helmick later scored on a passed
ball, making it 3-0. Bryan Oatridge upped the lead to 4-0
with a sac-fly RBI. Mathews capped the inning with an RBI
single by Ritz, increasing the lead to 5-0.
Leipply was cruising on the mound for the Mustangs
with a no-hitter heading into the bottom of the fifth inning.
Hunter Garisek broke up the no-no for the Skippers. Jeff
Bish followed with a bunt single and Tyler Frankenberry
reached on an error. Leipply struck the next hitter out for
the second out of the inning. Leipply would also struck out
Caleb Hites, but a dropped third strike extended the inning and allowed Garisek to score. Kyle Mikitin then drew
a bases loaded walk to cut the lead to 5-2. Ryan Thomas
followed with a big two-run single, trimming the lead to
5-4. Ryan Kay tried to stop the bleeding for the Mustangs
as he entered to pitch for Leipply. However, three straight
walks to Anthony Marcelli, Tanner Nahorniak and Hunter
Garisek gave the Mustangs a 6-5 lead. Anthony Oulten
entered to pitch for the Mustangs with the bases loaded
and two outs. Fairport was able to add two more runs on a
pair of errors, upping the lead to 8-5.

Lady Cardinals late offense pulls through for win
By Angelo Velotta
Gazette Newspapers
MENTOR - On a beautiful Monday afternoon the
Mentor Lady Cardinals defeated the visiting Madison
Lady Blue Streaks 2-0 to
advance further into the
playoffs.
This was in every word
a pitcher’s duel. Right from
the beginning both pitchers
brought their best stuff,
including Madison’s pitcher
Alicia Major throwing a nohitter into the third inning,
and Mentor’s ace Allison
Golic striking out the first
6 batters she got out on the
day!
While this round of the
playoffs was hosted at Mentor High School, Madison
was the home team as they
were the higher seed, two
versus Mentor at three.
So at the top of the first
inning Mentor (18-5) came
away with nothing offensively, as Alicia Major pitched a
good mix of throws for the 1,
2, 3 outing.
Madison (19-3) started
with Alyssa Rose drawing
a walk after a long at bat
where she really battled to
get on base for her team.

afternoon’s playoff game.
Allison Golic threw two
straight strikeouts but then
freshman Jordan Pasalaqua
smacked a single. The Lady
Blue Streaks would leave
two base runners on though
as Golic delivered one more
strikeout to get out of the
early jam.
Major continued to find
her groove and got a second
consecutive 1, 2, 3 outing,
and added two more strikeouts to her total, now giving
her three.
On the day she pitched
79 total pitches, 24 balls and
55 strikes, with 6 strikeouts,
1 walk, and gave up 2 runs
on 5 hits.
“She works hard, an awesome pitcher. I am proud of
her,” Madison head coach
Mona Ochoa said of her senior player.
At the bottom of the second inning Sam Tromba
would battle for a long at
bat single, but Golic got
three strikeouts sandwiched
before and after that to end
the second inning of play,
leaving the game still all
tied up at 0.
At the top of the third,
with 1 out, Major’s fourth,
Nicole Ulogar broke up the
no hitter with a fast bunt
single laid down. Mentor
would extend the base runner to second on a groundout
bunt but Major finished
strong to get her fifth strike-
out on the day, and leave 1
Lady Cardinal on base.
The third went quick for
Madison as Golic pitched her
first 1, 2, 3 outing, including
picking up her 7th strikeout
on the afternoon!
On the day Golic threw
predominantly strikes, as
81 of her 103 pitches were
called strikes, and only 22
balls. She had 10 strikeouts,
and gave up 1 walk, and 0
runs on 6 hits.

a blooping single down the
third base.
Two batters later Allison
Schultz hit a popping single
that fell into play and the
Lady Blue Streaks had the
bases loaded with only 1 out!
But then Sam Tromba
hit a hard line out, and
Golic got another strikeout
to leave Madison with the
based loaded and the fourth
inning over.
“Every inning when
people kept hitting,” Golic
thought.
“On that pop (Schultz’s
single) I thought someone
scored, and I didn’t want
them to score,” she added.
“I was expecting us to
bust through in that bases
loaded situation,” Ochoa
said.
“Nothing but respect for
Golic,” she added.
“I was thinking about
calling a timeout, but I could
see it on her face, she gets in
the zone, and I let her go,”
Mentor head coach Michelle
Thompson said.
With 1 out Mentor would
get on base as Golic would
help herself with a single.
But then the Lady Blue
Streaks returned to their
good effort in the field and
turned a nice good play, to
keep the game still all tied
up at 0 after the top half of
the fifth inning.
Golic would get two pop
outs in a row followed by a
groundout in a quick bottom half of the fifth inning
of play.
It was finally at the top of
the sixth inning when runs
would cross home plate, in
truly a great pitcher’s duel
on the afternoon.
Ulogar would single, and
number 1 pinch runner Avalon Gullin would come to run
for her. Then Rachel Beller,
who pulled through at last
year’s playoff game in a big
way versus Madison, laid
down a fast bunt single and
she beat out the throw.
Major would get the next
out, but then number 9 Bernadette Calvey hit the game
winning 2 RBI single down
the third base line, perfectly
hit to a perfect spot and
Mentor took the lead 2-0,

final score of the game!

MENTOR - Tuesday afternoon saw the winners of

collide in another great softball playoff match-up.
On Monday the Mentor
Lady Cardinals defeated the
Madison Lady Blue Streaks
2-0, and the Riverside Lady
Beavers defeated the Chardon Lady Hilltoppers 11-1,
so the number 1 seed Lady
Beavers met up with number
3 seeded Lady Cardinals.
And on this day the Lady
Cardinals pulled out another
late game effort to win the
bracket and move forward in
the playoffs, 4-3 in 8 innings
of play.
“Rosie Rinderman pitched
all 8 innings,” Riverside
head coach Bill Ross said.
“We were up 3-0 early.
See TRACK on page 13 They came back with 1 in
the 6th, 2 in the 7th, and 1

10th strikeout on the day,
and then Lauren Bernard

with a single. But Mentor
stayed tough and got the last

game by both teams, 2-0.
“Exactly what we did today, come with same game

Thompson said for the game

“We played 1 inning with

giving up a run!
“Sammy Kunsmna hit a
double to the fence with the
bases loaded and we scored
3,” Ross added.
“It was good, we were
very confident, our girls
were ready to hit, but not
enough,” he added.
“Yes and no,” Mentor
head coach Michelle Thompson said of whether they
were worried at this point
after not giving up any runs
so far into the postseason.
“They scored 3. After
that inning (Nicole) Ulogar
said we got this. It made
everybody calm, and she
said we’re going to do it,”
Thompson said of her player
stepping up in the dugout in
a positive way.
“I huddled em’ in and
said we are a team that goes
every pitch. Don’t give up
to the final out,” Thompson
said the advice was for her
team to kick off the top of
the sixth inning.
“’ One at a time’,” Thompson relayed more advice
from the vocal leader on the
day Ulogar.
It was then at the top of
the 6th inning of play when
Ulogar did exactly that and
would hit a triple to score
and Mentor was on the board
for the first time of the day
now down 3-1.
That made it two days in
a row Mentor broke through
later in the game, both times
for the first time in the 6th
inning.
“A walk, a triple, just
(good) hitting for Mentor,”
Ross said.
Mentor would score two
more runs at the top of the
7th inning and tie the game
all up at 7.
The 8th inning was where
the game was won!
“Lead off was Raegan
(Thompson) who hit a super
hard hit to center field. Then
Rachel Stack hit and we had
runners on first and second.
Golic had a hit and the bases
were loaded with no outs.
Then we had a walked in
run,” Thompson recapped
of the fiery offensive start
to win the game at the top of
the 8th inning of play.
Reflecting on the season
Bill Ross said “I am super
proud of them. We finished
second in our conference,
and second in our district.
We are the runner up twice.
FALCONS
I am very proud of how we
played.”
“I am only losing three
seniors. A lot of kids coming
back, so for sure I am looking
to do well again next year,”
he added.
As for the Mentor Lady
Cardinals, this caps off a
fantastic week as they defeated the 2 seeded Madison Lady Blue Streaks on
Monday, and the 1 seeded
Riverside Lady Beavers on
Tuesday.
After Golic’s great performance on Monday throwing
10 strikeouts, she threw 15
strikeouts more, bringing
her total to 25 in two days!
The Lady Cardinals will
move onto play Walsh Jesuit, which to Thompson said “I
heard they are really good.”
“We go game to game.
They are excited but now
know what they need to do,”
Thompson added.
The Mentor Lady Cardinals will play Walsh Jesuit
on Thursday, May 26 at 5
p.m. at the University of
Akron!
Congratulations to the
Mentor Lady Cardinals on
winning the division 1 district finals!

The Falcons were able to

Preservation Ohio names 2016 list of
Ohio’s Most Endangered Historic Sites
Weekly Crossword
Annual list selected from nominations by Ohioans
COLUMBUS – Preservation Ohio, the state’s oldest statewide non-profit
preservation organization,
recently released the 2016
list of Ohio’s Most Endangered Historic Sites during a
news conference at the Ohio
Statehouse.
This year’s list identifies
16 historically significant
Ohio properties that are in
jeopardy due to demolition,
disinvestment or indifference. Preservation Ohio has
presented the annual list for
the past 23 years.
Preservation Ohio accepts nominations from any
citizen or organization. The
board of trustees selects the
final list. Over the years,
the list has proven successful in saving some of Ohio’s
architectural, cultural and
natural heritage. Recognition of the Westcott House
in Springfield, a Frank
Lloyd Wright design, led
to a multi-million dollar
restoration.
The Anthony Wayne
Hotel in Hamilton, the Masonic temple in Columbus
and the Unionville Tavern share similar stories.
Other structures and sites
have not been as fortunate.
Among them, the President
Street Academic Center
on the Ohio University
Campus in Athens, A landmark structure in designed
by Frank Packard, which
would have been included
on the 2016 list had it not
been demolished earlier
this month over pleas from
around the state for its
preservation.
Three of the properties
on the 2016 list were also
on the list last year. They
remain endangered and
Preservation Ohio continues to monitor their status
and work with advocates
in the local communities
to draw attention and resources to the endangered
properties.
Circumstances that contribute to the endangered
status and result in sites
being named to the list typically include one or more
of the following factors:
demolition threat, abandonment, neglectful owner,
dilapidation, obsolete use,
lack of money for repairs,
out-of-the-way location or
encroaching sprawl.
The 2016 List of Ohio’s
Most Endangered
Historic Sites:
Ashtabula County – Stone
Train Depot, Ashtabula
Constructed in the 1800s,
the train station is one of the
few left with the distinctive
architecture of the time.
Near the site of the 1876
train bridge collapse, the
depot remains vacant and in
danger of demolition.
Athens County – President Street Academic Center, Ohio University Campus, Athens
A landmark structure in
Athens designed by Frank
Packard, the “Old Science
Building” opened in 1911. It
is scheduled for demolition
in 2016 over the objections of
many local advocates.
Butler County – Sorg’s
Opera House, Middletown
Although hundreds of
volunteer hours have spent
tending to the building in
support of presercation,
Middletown’s first theater
(designed by Samuel Hannaford) sits vacant and exposed to further deterioration.

and Justice House, Ohio
Wesleyan University, Delaware
One of several stylish
19th century brick houses
that Ohio Wesleyan University intends to demolish to

Franklin County – Columbus Railway Power and
Light Building, Columbus
Built circa 1915, this twostory brick building has a
steep hipped roof, an octagonal tower and round-arched
windows. Currently vacant,
the building is deteriorating.
Montgomery County –
Dayton Arcade, Dayton
Almost three decades of
vacancy has damaged these

but it remains threatened in
the meantime.

At the end of the Cold War, the

The fact that we’ve gone through a number of months
without even having a carrier in the Persian Gulf is a
problem.
I mean, we are talking about an area of the globe that is
a powder keg. It is an area that has seen Iran aggressively
testing ballistic missiles.
Right now, the Navy has 273 active ships. The 30-year
force plan is to take it to 308 ships.
Here is the problem: The plan includes an average of 7.6
battle force ships per year to be built. In order to maintain
our current fleet and build towards the 308 ships, we need
to build an average of 8.8 ships per year. As you see, based
on current budget figures we can’t even meet that goal.
That is why it was so important that the House of Representatives last week passed the National Defense Authorization Act and the House Appropriations Committee
passed the Fiscal Year 2017 Defense Appropriations Bill.
I have always believed one of the primary functions of
the federal government as laid out in the Constitution is
the defense and protection of our citizenry. As the threats
are growing across the globe, we need our armed forces to
be able to meet those threats.
These two pieces of legislation authorize and spend federal dollars for national security needs, including military
operations and readiness programs, as well as health and
quality-of-life programs for our troops and military families.
One of the most important aspects of these bills is
both reverse cuts to troop strength. The legislation seeks
to ensure that we do not deploy troops who are not fully
trained, whose equipment is worn out, and who did not get
the resources they needed back home to be ready to face
our enemies overseas.
It is a great first step to make sure we continue to modernize our military to battle the global threats around the
world, including ISIS.
This week I met with the George family from Painesville.
They were in DC to advocate for the Childhood Cancer
Survivorship, Treatment, Access, and Research (STAR) Act,
H.R. 3381. The bill would improve efforts to identify and
track childhood cancer incidences, improve the quality of life
for childhood cancer survivors, ensure publicly accessible
policies that provide hope for patients who have run out of
options, and identify opportunities to expand the research
of therapeutics necessary to treat the 15,780 children diagnosed with cancer in the U.S. every year.
I was proud to sign my name as a co-sponsor for this
very important piece of legislation.
Tour of the Capitol
Earlier this week I had the opportunity to meet with
students, teachers, and parents of Mentor Shore Middle
School as they visited the Capitol. As I’ve done with other
school tour groups, I finished the tour with a rousing OHIO chant on the steps!

“Indoor Shooting Range”
Right now, American
workers know they’re working more than ever before
and for less pay. Since the
1970s, middle class wages
have stagnated, while the
number of hours spent on
the job has gone up.
The salary threshold to
be eligible for overtime pay
hasn’t even come close to
keeping pace with inflation,
and that leaves millions of
families behind. The current
threshold is now so low, it’s
below the poverty level for
a family of four. Right now,
it’s not uncommon for salaried workers to be required
to work 50, 60, and 70 hour
weeks, without getting a
cent in overtime.
Plain and simple: if you
work extra hours, you should
earn extra pay.
That’s why I was proud
to join Vice President Biden
and Secretary of Labor Tom
Perez in Columbus last
week to announce a new
overtime rule to raise the
salary threshold and grant
overtime pay to millions of
American workers.
Right now, only Americans who earn $23,660 a
year or less – just 11 percent of all salaried workers
– qualify for overtime pay.
The new rule will raise the
threshold to $47,476 per
year, meaning 134,000 more
Ohioans will now be eligible
to earn overtime when they
work more than 40 hours
per week.
It’s past time for overtime
hours to mean overtime pay
again, and that’s what this
rule will do. This is a win
for Ohio workers, and a win
for hardworking families
across the country who are
trying to keep a foothold in
the middle class.
For workers who already
put in long hours, this rule
will mean more money in
their pockets to put food on
the table, pay down student
loan debt, and save for the
future. For others, it will
mean more nights off to sit
down around the dinner table with their family or help
their kids with homework.
When workers put in the
hours, they should see that
reflected in their paychecks
– it’s that simple.
Our middle class is this
county’s greatest strength,
and the way we build and
support that middle class
is by making hard work
pay off. There’s still a lot
more we have to do – from
raising the minimum wage,
to ensuring equal pay, to
establishing paid sick leave
and paid family leave. But
this expansion of overtime
pay is a major step in the
right direction that will help
millions of families across
the country.
We know that the hardworking families who will
be helped by this rule aren’t
taking that extra money and
putting it in Swiss bank accounts. More money in families’ pockets means more
trips to the mall and more
nights out at neighborhood
restaurants – where that
money is pumped back into
the local economy, to support
even more jobs.
That’s how we grow our
economy – from the middle
out, not the top down.

Rising to the Forefront: Submetering
Q: What is submetering?
A: Submetering occurs when a landlord or third party
purchases a utility service (electric, natural gas, and/or
water) and then resells that service to tenants by using a
submeter, which records usage for each individual housing
unit. This is done in apartment and condominium complexes
as well as other housing developments and affects Ohioans
of all income levels.
Q: Why would a landlord or developer use a submetering company?
A: The contracted submetering company often covers the
cost of installing meters in new developments, saving the
landlord or developer from having pay for them. In return,
the submetering company gains the exclusive right to supply residents with their energy and/or water. When there
is already a development in place, a landlord or resident
association can contract with the submetering companies to
exclusively provide water and/or electric services for their
development. Typically, the submetering company buys
large quantities of a utility commodity (electricity and/or
water) at a commercial or bulk price and then resells it to
consumers at the residential price. The submetering companies often add an administrative fee (or fees) to consumers’
bills to pay for their services. This practice is not currently
prohibited by Ohio law.
the right to begin eviction proceedings if a tenant fails to
pay utility bills on time. Ordinarily, evictions are only made
by the property owner or property manager if a tenant falls
behind on rent.
Q: How is this issue being addressed?
A: There currently are two cases pending at the
PUCO. One case (Case No. 15-1594-AU-COI, which
can be viewed at http://dis.puc.state.oh.us/CaseRecord.
aspx?CaseNo=15-1594) is the PUCO’s investigation into
whether it should regulate submetering. Consumer protection issues are under consideration in that case. The other
case (Case No. 15-067-EI-CSS, which can be viewed at http://
dis.puc.state.oh.us/CaseRecord.aspx?CaseNo=15-0697) is a
complaint that a consumer, who is a victim of higher submetering charges, filed against a submetering company
(Whitt vs. Nationwide Energy Partners, LLC).
A class action lawsuit has been brought to the Franklin
County Court of Common Pleas on behalf of consumers who
have been harmed by submetering (Ronald Wuerth et. al. vs.
Nationwide Energy Partners, LLC, Case No. 16CV000143,
filed Jan. 6, 2016).
Additionally, the Ohio House of Representatives held
legislative hearings on consumer protection issues regarding submetering, and there may be further legislative
activity in 2016.
Legislative testimony from the Ohio Consumers’ Counsel that includes seven principles for protecting consumers
against submetering can be viewed at www.occ.ohio.gov/
lservices/testimony/2014-12-02.pdf, and further information about submetering can be found at www.occ.ohio.gov/

We must remain vigilant against
further threats to our health and
our natural ecosystems
Ashtabula County has a toxic legacy that may seem
like past history. In the ’60s, my husband’s family stopped
fishing for perch because it tasted like chemicals. When I
arrived here in the ’70s, it seemed that every few months
barrels of toxic chemicals were being found in abandoned
buildings or buried on someone’s back forty. There was
talk of cancer clusters and health issues tied to industry
practices. Multiple Superfund sites and potential Superfund
sites were identified. Thankfully, much has changed over
the past forty years.
Today we celebrate the water quality of Lake Erie and
our three scenic rivers. Much work has been done to clean up
environmental degradation and protect our natural areas.
However, threats remain to our precious water resources.
It is important that we all remain aware of our toxic legacy
and appreciate the progress we’ve made to undo it. We cannot rest on our laurels and think that the job is done. We
must remain vigilant against further threats to our health
and our natural ecosystems.
In an effort to educate and celebrate Ashtabula’s environmental history, Ashtabula County Water Watch has
planned a Toxic but Terrific Tour for June 4. This community group is focused on water quality in Ashtabula
County. The tour will highlight sites known for pollution
and sites that celebrate remediation successes and nature.

Q: Why should this be my concern?
A: At least two submetering companies have been overcharging utility consumers in central Ohio for services
such as electricity and water. These companies add extra
and sometimes unexplained charges for their service. The
Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) is considering
whether submetering companies fall under its jurisdiction.
Some submetering companies have negotiated the right,
with landlords, to evict residents who do not pay their utility
bills, even if they’ve paid their rent. As noted above, current
Ohio law does not prevent this. Many prospective tenants
are unaware that properties are submetered when they
sign a lease. By the time they do find out, there is little to
nothing that they can do because they are already bound
by a lease. The submetering company’s contracts with the
property owners or managers prevent consumers from

Democrat Party
outsourced staff at
Geneva celebration
I was at the Geneva City and Township Birthday event
recently and while walking around saw and interacted
with the Ashtabula Democrat Party Booth. What I soon
realized made me question what the focus of their party is
here in the county.
They had two volunteers there that it ended up weren’t
volunteers at all, but paid staff members of the Ohio Democratic Party who don’t even live in Ohio but are temporarily
assigned to help convince Ashtabula to turn out for Hillary
while giving lip service to local issues.
I have to wonder if these paid staff members who represent the Ashtabula Democratic Party know, or are even
concerned about, things like Norfolk Southern closing
their Ashtabula operations putting dozens of Ashtabula
residents out of work (a byproduct of the end coal movement supported by Hillary by the way), or do they know
that our jail has been slowly deteriorating thus requiring
millions of dollars to restore, or that 500 people each year
leave Ashtabula County and don’t come back creating a
devastating brain drain?
I doubt they know much about our community at all,
other than we have voters here that the state Democratic
Party want to make sure keep in line with what their
political machine down in Columbus want for our area. If
the county’s party has to have paid staff members work on
their behalf and represent the interests of our community
without even being Ohio residents, where does that leave
their priorities? Getting votes? Making sure another Clinton enters the White House and Ted Strickland takes his
dismal jobs record down to DC in the Senate?
More importantly, I think it’s safe to say after November,
these temporary election workers won’t care that another
500 young people leave our community or the amount of
overdoses due to heroin continue to increase. They will
have done their job at securing your vote, and then leave.
Ironically, it seems our local Democratic Party has outsourced their campaign responsibilities instead of creating
more opportunities locally. But if campaigns are supposed
to inform candidates and move along changes, I don’t think
their priorities are in the right place to make positive change
in Ashtabula.

Ohio tourism momentum continued in 2015
New research shows visits and revenue continued to rise
BY STEFANIE WESSELL
Gazette Newspapers
ASHTABULA/LAKE
COUNTIES - Tourism officials in Ashtabula and Lake
counties are encouraged
by recent tourism numbers
showing an increase in visits
across the state.
TourismOhio last week
released 2015 data showing
continued tourism growth
and underscoring the industry’s significance as an
economic driver for the state.
TourismOhio operates within the state of Ohio’s Development Services Agency.
According to the numbers, during 2015, Ohio
saw an estimated 207 million visits, an increase of 7
million from 2014. Of those
207 million total trips, 41
million were overnight trips
in Ohio last year. Research
shows that overnight visitors spend, on average, more
than three times the amount
spent per day by daytrip
visitors ($110 for daytrips
vs. $354 for overnight trips).
More visits to Ohio have
also yielded more spending
in the state, TourismOhio
officials said. Direct visitor
spending in 2015 was estimated at $33 billion, $2 billion more than the previous
year. The increase in visitor
spending generated approximately $42 billion in sales,
up from $40 billion in 2014.
Additionally, tourism-related jobs are on the rise. In
2015, tourism supported about
420,000 Ohio jobs, an increase
of 8,000 jobs from 2014.
“We look forward to continuing to build momentum
and turn heads to Ohio as
a tourism destination this
year,” said Mary Cusick,
director of TourismOhio.
“We are working with our
tourism industry partners to
complement their marketing
efforts and amplify the Ohio
brand as well.”
The research, conducted
by Longwoods International
and Tourism Economics, allows TourismOhio to track
industry performance and
gauge visitor trends for the
purpose of marketing Ohio’s
distinct travel assets.
“This is so encouraging!
ACCVB is looking forward to
the results of our Longwoods
Economic Impact Study,
which we expect to see soon,”
Ashtabula County Convention & Visitors Bureau Executive Director Stephanie
Siegel said.
Siegel said the ACCVB
expects to see similar numbers to the state, especially
knowing that Ashtabula
County bed tax saw a significant increase in 2015.
“More and more people
are discovering Ohio as a
destination of choice. We
have a unique combination
of attractions (Lake Erie,
wineries, campgrounds, rivers…) that spans visitor
interests: wine drinkers,
fisherman, birders, campers, etc. Rarely are all of
these resources found within
such close proximity, making Ashtabula County a
draw,” Siegel said. “And to
top it off, visitors regularly
comment about the high
level of authenticity that
they do not find elsewhere.
The state’s new marketing
campaign positions Ohio to
promote tourism in a very
strategic way, and we have
every intention of following
their lead!”

The problem was discovered when Ajinomoto
Windsor, Inc. was notified
by CRF Frozen Foods that
its frozen vegetables used
in Ajinomoto Windsor, Inc.
products were involved in a
recall. CRF Frozen Foods of
Pasco, Washington voluntarily recalled frozen fruit
and vegetable items due to
an illness outbreak of listeriosis. There have been no
confirmed reports of illness
or adverse reactions due to
consumption of Ajinomoto
Windsor, Inc.’s products.
The CRF Frozen Foods’
recall can be found at http://

Consumption of food contaminated with Listeria
monocytogenes can cause listeriosis, a serious infection
that primarily affects older
adults, persons with weakened immune systems, and
pregnant women and their
newborns. Less commonly,
persons outside these risk
groups are affected.
Listeriosis can cause fever, muscle aches, headache,
stiff neck, confusion, loss
of balance and convulsions
sometimes preceded by diarrhea or other gastrointestinal symptoms. An invasive
infection spreads beyond
the gastrointestinal tract. In
pregnant women, the infection can cause miscarriages,
stillbirths, premature delivery or life-threatening
infection of the newborn. In
addition, serious and sometimes fatal infections in older adults and persons with
weakened immune systems.
Listeriosis is treated with
antibiotics. Persons in the
higher-risk categories who
experience flu-like symptoms within two months
after eating contaminated
food should seek medical
care and tell the health care
provider about eating the
contaminated food.
FSIS and the company
are concerned that some

Consumers who have

tion of attractions making
Lake County a desirable destination to visit,” Ulas said.
Thomas Duren, Lake
County Visitors Bureau
Board member and director of sales at the Radisson
Hotel & Suites Cleveland
Eastlake, agreed that Lake
County’s tourism industry
is maintaining strong numbers.
“There has been five
years of growth in which
tourism has had percentage
increases in our area. Our
year-to-date numbers for
this year show an increase
of about 4 percent in overall
occupancy over 2015,” Duren
said. “This has been due
to a mild winter as well as
room nights from our local
drivers such as our many
companies, SPIRE Institute,
The Great Lakes Baseball
League and the Kirtland
Temple. The growth will
peak mid summer with
the much anticipated Republican Convention. The
long-term outlook for Lake
County tourism remains
positive as the region continues to grow in recognition as
a viable tourist destination.”

Red Cross urges blood and platelet
donations during challenging summer months
Donors can choose their day to help save lives during summer awareness campaign
CLEVELAND — The American Red Cross urges blood
and platelet donors to choose their day to give and help
ensure blood is available for patients all summer long during its annual summer awareness campaign, sponsored by
Suburban Propane.
“Many Americans will be celebrating the unofficial start
to summer this Memorial Day weekend, but seasonal activities that bring joy to so many can also lead to a shortage of
blood and platelet donations when regular donors become
busy,” said Donna M. Morrissey, director of national partnerships for the Red Cross Biomedical Services. “Patients
don’t get a summer holiday from needing lifesaving blood
and platelet donations and are counting on generous volunteers to help maintain a sufficient supply this summer.”
To encourage donations around the Memorial Day holiday, those who come to give blood or platelets from May
27-31 will receive a Red Cross T-shirt, while supplies last.
The Red Cross relies on volunteer donors for the 14,000
blood donations needed every day to support patients at
about 2,600 hospitals and transfusion centers nationwide.
However, during the summer months of June, July and
August, about two fewer donors schedule an appointment
to give blood at each Red Cross blood drive than what
patients need.
Suburban Propane supports the Red Cross summer
campaign
As official national sponsor of the summer campaign,
which begins Memorial Day weekend and runs through
Labor Day weekend, Suburban Propane will help promote
the need for blood and platelet donations and will encourage
its employees and customers to give.

“Suburban Propane is proud to partner with the Red
Cross and help raise awareness of the ongoing need for
blood and platelets – especially during the crucial summer
months,” said Suburban Propane’s Chief Development Officer Mark Wienberg. “By expanding our partnership with
the Red Cross this year, we can continue to support the lifechanging work of the Red Cross and make an even bigger
difference in communities across the country.”
Suburban Propane employees will also volunteer at Red
Cross blood drives nationwide in one of the largest national
volunteer commitments to the Red Cross Blood Services
from a corporate partner. Additionally, this year Suburban
Propane is expanding its partnership with the Red Cross to
include participation in the Home Fire Campaign in some
markets, as well as support for disaster relief efforts and
Service to the Armed Forces.
The Red Cross has touched the lives of many Suburban
Propane employees including Debbie Traub. In May 2014,
her 74-year-old father fell from a ladder while power washing his home and suffered life-threatening injuries. He
spent 20 days in the intensive care unit and received many
blood transfusions. Traub said that she now knows the
importance of giving blood and makes a point to donate in
honor of her father at the Suburban Propane headquarter
blood drives. Her story is just one of many reasons Suburban Propane continues to advocate for blood and platelet
donations to the Red Cross.
“The Red Cross has partnered with Suburban Propane
since 2012, and last year’s ‘100 Days of Summer. 100 Days of
Hope.’ campaign marked our first nationwide, summerlong
partnership,” said Morrissey. “The Red Cross depends on
corporate partners like Suburban Propane to help ensure
blood and platelets are available for patients in need of
lifesaving transfusions and to help our communities prepare
for and respond to disasters large and small.”
