<strong>Madison</strong> Editor<br />
The first time Antwaun Burns experienced<br />
the Ohio High School Athletic Association’s<br />
state wrestling tournament, he<br />
hadn’t yet reached double digits in age.<br />
His uncle, Richard Burns, ran a youth<br />
wrestling program at the time and treated<br />
his young proteges to a trip to Columbus<br />
each year to watch the big dogs compete at<br />
the state level. Those trips planted a seed.<br />
“Ever since he was a kid, it has always<br />
been Antwaun’s goal to go out there and<br />
compete and win,” said Richard, who now<br />
serves as London High School’s head<br />
wrestling coach alongside Assistant Coach<br />
Aaron Akers.<br />
That is exactly what Antwaun, now a<br />
senior at London, has done over the course<br />
of his wrestling career, including three trips<br />
to state. He placed fourth in his weight class<br />
at state his freshman year and third his junior<br />
year.<br />
This year, he realized the ultimate goal<br />
he set for himself as a freshman.<br />
“When I first got to high school and found<br />
out London had never had a state champion<br />
in wrestling, I wanted to be the first,” he<br />
said.<br />
Antwaun became London’s first boys’<br />
state wrestling champion at the 85th An-<br />
nual State Wrestling Tournament held<br />
<strong>March</strong> 11-13 at the Jerome Schottenstein<br />
Center in Columbus. He emerged from the<br />
three-day contest as the top performer in<br />
the 157-pound weight class in Div. II.<br />
“I am beyond proud of him,” said Richard<br />
who, while technically Antwaun’s uncle, has<br />
helped to raise him and Antwaun’s twin<br />
brother, Antonio, also a state qualifier. The<br />
pride he has for both boys is not only that of<br />
a coach but of a father figure.<br />
Going into the meet, Antwaun was<br />
ranked third in the state. On his way to becoming<br />
champion, he beat the first-, secondand<br />
fourth-ranked wrestlers. He was especially<br />
happy with his victory in the semi-finals<br />
over senior Logan Ours, a nationally<br />
ranked wrestler from Beaver Local.<br />
When it came to the match that would<br />
determine the champion, Antwaun said he<br />
thought back to the days when he and his<br />
youth teammates would make those trips to<br />
the Schott.<br />
“Watching the state finals when we were<br />
younger was one thing, then doing it was a<br />
whole other feeling,” he said.<br />
Antwaun capped off his state run with a<br />
win over Gunner Cramblett, a sophomore<br />
from St. Paris Graham to whom he lost in<br />
the district finals the week before state. The<br />

All pins count, but four pins in particular meant the difference<br />

trophy.<br />
“We couldn’t be happier for the kids and<br />
all the families involved. It’s a big group effort,”<br />
said Rusty Walter who coaches the<br />
team with his brother, Mike Walter. “It was<br />
so high energy and a lot of emotions and just<br />
a lot of fun. We really had a great time.”<br />
And about those four pins...<br />
Through sectional and district competition,<br />
16 teams qualify for the state tournament.<br />
Once at state, those 16 teams compete<br />
in a qualifying round to determine which<br />
eight teams move on to compete for the state<br />
title in the championship round. The qualifying<br />
round starts with three regular games<br />
in which five bowlers from each team complete<br />
three individual games. Then, the five<br />
bowlers combine to play three “baker”<br />
games in which each team member bowls<br />
two frames of each game. The scores from<br />
both sets of games are combined.<br />
“We struggled in the first (regular) game<br />
of qualifying. The second game was better,<br />
then we bowled a 926 in the third game<br />
which jumped us from 13th place to eighth<br />
place,” Rusty said.<br />
Next up were the baker games which<br />
went fairly well, he continued, then came<br />
the wait to see if the combined effort was<br />

enough to earn a spot in the championship<br />
round. As it turned out, Jonathan Alder<br />
edged out Amherst Steele for the eighth and<br />
final qualifying spot...by four points.<br />
“We were all sitting in the bleachers,<br />
waiting to hear who the top eight were,”<br />
said Kadie Walter, a senior on the team and<br />
Mike’s daughter. “I wasn’t sure if we were<br />
going to make it or not. Once we heard, we<br />
were jumping around and yelling, ‘We made<br />
it!’”<br />
“We all went crazy—all the parents,<br />
everybody. It’s something I will never forget,”<br />
said junior Danielle Phipps.<br />
Once the team knew they had cleared the<br />
first big hurdle, they reined in their emotions<br />
as they faced their first opponent in<br />
the championship round, Green out of the<br />
Akron area. Green was the top team to<br />
make it into the championship round. The<br />
Pioneers lost the first two baker rounds<br />
against the Bulldogs but took the next three<br />
to win in exciting fashion.<br />
The semi-finals against Troy went to a<br />
five-game match, with the Pioneers pulling<br />
out another victory to advance to the finals<br />
where they faced the Big Blue bowlers of<br />
Hamilton High School.<br />
“We dropped the first game by three pins,<br />
came back to win Game 2, lost Game 3, and<br />
won game 4. In the last game, Hamilton<br />
threw six strikes in a row to win the match<br />
and the state title,” Rusty said.<br />
With the rollercoaster that was Jonathan<br />
www.madisonmessengernews.com<br />
Alder’s experience at state, the top priority,<br />
Kadie said, was making sure everyone kept<br />
their cool from round to round and frame to<br />
frame.<br />
“I’m really proud of how everyone kept<br />
themselves collected through stressful situations,”<br />
she said. “Each person’s morale affects<br />
everybody else’s morale. It was nice to<br />
know your teammates had your back.”<br />
“We came together when we needed it,”<br />
Danielle said. “We knew we had to pick each<br />
other up, rely on our practicing, rely on our<br />
coaching—that’s what ultimately got us to<br />
the finals.”<br />
About the experience overall, Danielle<br />
added, “It was fun being around so much<br />
other talent. Since we have so many seniors,<br />
it was amazing to have that experience with<br />
them.”<br />
The Pioneers ended their regular season<br />
with a 16-0 record in the league and a 17-1<br />
record overall. They were league and sectional<br />
champs and finished second at district<br />
behind two-time defending state<br />
champion Gahanna Lincoln. Danielle was a<br />
silver medalist at district. At state, she<br />
bowled a 571 series to tie for 14th place in<br />
the individual standings and earn Honorable<br />
Mention All-Ohio honors.<br />
Even though the program is losing five<br />
seniors to graduation this year, the coaches<br />
are excited about 2023.<br />
“We think next year we can be nearly as<br />
good, with Danielle being one of the best in<br />
the state,” Rusty said. “We have a really<br />
good chance to have a good year next year.”<br />
While their regular season and run up to<br />
and through the state tournament is over,<br />
the <strong>2022</strong> Pioneers aren’t done quite yet.<br />
“We’re looking at putting some things together<br />
to take the girls to the high school<br />
nationals in Louisville, Ky., on June 18,”<br />
Rusty said, adding that a fundraiser is in<br />
the works.<br />

them eligible to participate at the U.S. High<br />

<strong>Madison</strong> Editor<br />
London City Schools will celebrate student<br />

Alder and West Jeff wrestlers make state podium<br />
By Kristy Zurbrick<br />
<strong>Madison</strong> Editor<br />
At the 85th Annual State Wrestling Tournament, the podium<br />
was the place to be for wrestlers from <strong>Madison</strong> County. In addition<br />
to several competitors from London (see story on page 1), one<br />
Jonathan Alder athlete and one West Jefferson athlete finished<br />
there seasons with medals around their necks.<br />
Jonathan Alder<br />
Oliver Byerly, a junior from Jonathan Alder, finished third in<br />
the 150-pound weight class in Division II. He qualified for state last<br />
year but didn’t compete due to an injury he suffered the week before<br />
the tournament. So, this year, he was raring to go.<br />
“It was pretty awesome wrestling in front of that big of a crowd<br />
in that big a stadium,” Byerly said. The tournament took place at<br />
the Jerome Schottenstein Center in Columbus.<br />
In the match that determined who finished third, Byerly wrestled<br />
the same opponent he had faced the morning before in quar-<br />
ter-finals, senior Nicholas Abounader of<br />
Cleveland Benedictine. In the quarter-finals,<br />
Byerly eked out a last-second win. In<br />
the finals, he left no doubt, controlling the<br />
match from the start and finishing 12-6.<br />
“We’re super proud of him,” said Coach<br />
Tony Watson. “I’ve been around Oliver since<br />
he was maybe 11. I’ve watched him wrestle<br />
through junior high and high school. I’ve<br />
seen him grow. It’s been a great ride.<br />
“He is a super good person, a great kid, a<br />
great wrestler. I’m glad just for the opportunity<br />
to be around him.”<br />
Byerly is already looking ahead to next<br />
year.<br />
“I want to come back and win the whole<br />
thing,” he said.<br />
West Jefferson<br />
Bryce Keckley, a senior from West Jefferson,<br />
is a four-time state qualifier and now a<br />
two-time state placer. He finished third in<br />
2021.<br />
Though his <strong>2022</strong> state experience didn’t<br />
go the way he wanted, Keckley still made<br />
the podium with a sixth-place finish in the<br />
175-pound class in Div. III.<br />
“What he overcame to take sixth place is<br />
a feat in and of itself,” said his coach, Ryan<br />
Browning.<br />
Keckley suffered a severe shoulder injury<br />
prior to the start of this season but went on<br />
to wrestle the full season. Then, at state, he<br />
won three of five matches before leaving the<br />
tournament early with a knee injury.<br />
Browning can’t say enough about the<br />
work ethic and character of the senior.<br />
“Bryce is one of the hardest working<br />
wrestlers I have ever seen, inside and outside<br />
the wrestling room,” he said. “He’s just<br />
a really good kid. He’s who you want your<br />
daughter to date and who you want your son<br />
to become.”<br />
Keckley finished out his high school<br />
wrestling career as West Jefferson’s all-time<br />
leading winner with 194 wins. He is being<br />
recruited by Div. I colleges.<br />

LONDON<br />
Continued from page 1<br />
London contingent of fans erupted in cheers.<br />
Richard hoisted Antwaun in the air in a<br />
bear hug. Antwaun was all smiles and fist<br />
pumps.<br />
“It feels great,” he said of the win and his<br />
new place in the school history books. “I<br />
want to thank the London community and<br />
everyone who came out to support us and<br />
everyone who was at home supporting. They<br />
were rooting for all of us to do our best.”<br />
Antwaun’s victory wasn’t the only piece<br />
of school history made on <strong>March</strong> 13. In addition<br />
to his brother, Antonio, Antwaun<br />
made the trip to state with two other fellow<br />
seniors, Thadd Huff and Brady Fisher. The<br />
tight-knit foursome dyed their hair blond,<br />
as has become tradition at London for state<br />
qualifiers ever since Richard mentioned he<br />
dyed his hair when he wrestled at state in<br />
his high school days. Together, bright hair<br />
and all, they placed seventh as a team, the<br />
highest state finish for a London wrestling<br />
team.<br />
“We just wanted to make the best of our<br />
last run,” Antwaun said. “I wouldn’t have<br />
wanted to do it with any other guys. When<br />
we’re all together, it’s always fun and a lot<br />
of laughs, and when it is time to get serious,<br />
we put in the work.”<br />
Thadd Huff became a two-time state<br />
placer, taking third in the 285-pound class.<br />
Last year, he placed fourth. While his sights<br />
were set on taking first this year, he said he<br />
is happy with the results, which included a<br />
win over the returning state champ in the<br />
semi-finals.<br />
“To finish off my career with wins and<br />
beating the returning state champ felt really<br />
good,” he said. “Overall, I’m so happy<br />
for Antwaun. It’s been really cool being<br />
teammates with him since we were really<br />
young. And Rich has been my coach all<br />
along. Finishing it all off on a really high<br />
note was just a really great feeling for me<br />
and just everybody.”<br />
Going into his third of five matches of the<br />
tournament, Brady Fisher found himself in<br />
the same position he was in at last year’s<br />
state tourney against the same opponent,<br />
Collin Twigg of Wauseon. The person who<br />
won would make the podium; the person<br />
who lost would go home with nothing. In<br />
2021, the two faced off in the 106-pound<br />
class. Twigg won the match in the last 10<br />
seconds with a takedown. This year, they<br />
competed at 113 pounds, and it was Fisher’s<br />
turn for a late-match victory.<br />
“I was down one point. I chose the bottom<br />
(position). With 20 seconds left, I got a reverse<br />
and rode him out as time expired to<br />
win 2-1,” Fisher recounted.<br />
He went on to finish seventh. He said it<br />
“felt great” to finally place at state, something<br />
he’s been working toward his whole<br />
high school career. He also said he is processing<br />
the idea that this part of his<br />
wrestling journey is over.<br />
“I’ve been with these guys pretty much<br />
my whole life, pretty much since peewee...<br />
It’s crazy that it’s all over now. Those guys<br />
are like family to me,” he said.<br />
Antonio feels the same way and is proud<br />
of what he and his teammates have accomplished.<br />
“It wasn’t easy. It took a lot of long nights<br />
of hard work to get where we did,” he said.<br />
Antonio wrestled two matches at state in<br />
the 215-pound weight class. He lost the first<br />
one 1-2 in triple overtime and the second<br />
one 0-5. Though he didn’t place, he said he<br />
is thankful to have finally gotten the full<br />
Schottenstein state experience.<br />
“I didn’t make it to state my freshman<br />
year. The tournament was cancelled because<br />
of COVID my sophomore year. My<br />
junior year, the tourney was held at a high<br />
school,” he said. “Finally, this year, it was<br />

state wrestling champion.<br />
back at the Schott. Words can’t really explain<br />
what it’s like coming out of that tunnel.<br />
It’s different for sure.”<br />
“I’m extremely happy for all four of these<br />
guys,” Richard said. “They have been part of<br />
making history in London since they were<br />
freshmen.”<br />
That first year, they and their teammates<br />
won the school district’s first league,<br />
sectional and regional duals titles. The regional<br />
title also made them the first London<br />
squad to qualify as a team for the state<br />
duals. They’ve went on to register some of<br />
the highest state places as individuals in<br />
school history and, now, the highest team<br />
finish at state.<br />

“Those boys have set the bar for the rest<br />
to come,” Richard said. “It’s exciting for<br />
them to leave something behind for all these<br />
kids to look up to. They showed that you<br />
don’t have to go to a big school program to<br />
have the opportunity to win a state title.<br />
They can do it right here in London.”<br />
Richard thanked London City Schools<br />
and the London community for their support<br />
of the wrestling program and for supporting<br />
student-athletes “to be better, not<br />
just on the football field or in the wrestling<br />
room, but in the classroom, as well.”<br />
All four seniors who competed at state<br />
this year have received multiple offers to<br />
wrestle at the college level.

County welcomes new ag Extension educator<br />
By Kristy Zurbrick<br />
<strong>Madison</strong> Editor<br />
There’s a new face at <strong>Madison</strong> County’s<br />
Ohio State University Extension Office.<br />
Amanda Douridas became the county’s<br />
new agriculture and natural resources Extension<br />
educator on <strong>March</strong> 1. She replaces<br />
Mary Griffith who had served in the position<br />
since the fall of 2015.<br />
Originally from southern Union County,<br />
Amanda grew up on an old farmstead and<br />
raised dairy feeders for 4-H. Her parents<br />
weren’t farmers, but she was surrounded by<br />
a strong agricultural community.<br />
“FFA is what really got me interested in<br />
agriculture,” said Amanda who was active<br />
in FFA while a student at Fairbanks High<br />
School.<br />
She started working for a crop consulting<br />
company while in high school and continued<br />
to work for them while she pursued higher<br />
education. She holds a bachelor’s degree in<br />
agribusiness and a master’s degree in agriculture<br />
economics, both from The Ohio State<br />
University.<br />
Amanda took her first step into Extension<br />
work in 2008 as a title program coordinator<br />
for environmental management in the<br />
Food, Agricultural and Biological Engineering<br />
Department on OSU’s main campus.<br />
She worked with farmers and manure applicators<br />
on research and best practices for<br />
manure application. For the last several<br />
Amanda Douridas became <strong>Madison</strong><br />
County’s new agriculture and natural resources<br />
Extension educator on <strong>March</strong> 1.<br />

County’s Extension office.<br />
Amanda and her husband, Nate Douridas,<br />
have lived in <strong>Madison</strong> County since<br />
“When the <strong>Madison</strong> County position<br />
opened up, I wanted to apply so I<br />
could get to know the community we<br />
live in better, and I really enjoy the job.<br />
It was a good opportunity.”<br />

manager at the Molly<br />

of the Farm Science<br />
Review.<br />
“When the <strong>Madison</strong><br />
County position opened<br />
up, I wanted to apply<br />
so I could get to know<br />
the community we live<br />
in better, and I really<br />
enjoy the job. It was a good opportunity,”<br />
Amanda said.<br />
Even before her official start date,<br />
Amanda was making the rounds, getting to<br />
know people. She attended a recent pesticide<br />
recertification meeting and is meeting<br />
with the <strong>Madison</strong> County Master Gardeners,<br />
a group affiliated with OSU Extension.<br />
She plans to get involved with various organizations<br />
around the county.<br />
Diving into her new job, Amanda is actively<br />
seeking farmer participants for onfarm<br />
research protocol studies. With<br />
funding to help farmers, Extension is promoting<br />
a nitrogen rate<br />
trial. The office also is<br />
working on pollinator<br />
habitat and soybean<br />
studies, along with<br />
studies on seeding<br />
rates for corn and soybeans.<br />
“If there’s something<br />
specific you’re interested<br />
in studying on<br />
your farm, I would be happy to help with<br />
that, too,” she said.<br />

Rules and care guidance for raising chickens<br />
By Amanda Douridas, <strong>Madison</strong> County<br />
Ag & Natural Resources Extension Educator<br />
The first chicks appeared in supply stores at the beginning of<br />
<strong>March</strong>, and that means chick-rearing season is upon us. I have<br />
my own backyard poultry flock, so I very much understand the<br />
excitement, fun and joy these birds can bring, not to mention<br />
food. However, a few missteps can lead to frustration and<br />
heartache if your birds are not living their best life.<br />
If you live inside the city or village limits, you do need to make<br />
sure you are allowed to have poultry and under what conditions.<br />
I did a little research into the municipalities around <strong>Madison</strong><br />
County, and here is what I found.<br />
Regulations<br />
Roosters are not allowed on most lots and chickens cannot free<br />
range. Housing restrictions are written into ordinances and usually<br />
require secure, covered coops that allow for free movement<br />
and are predator proof. In some cases, a minimum square footage<br />
per animal needs to be met. Most also require housing to be in<br />
the backyard or not visible from the road.<br />
London: Allows 6-10 chickens depending on lot size. A one-time<br />
$50 permit is required, and an inspection will occur once chickens<br />
are acquired. For the detailed ordinance, contact the city.<br />
Plain City: One chicken is allowed per 725 square feet which<br />
equates to 12 animals for a standard 8,700 square-foot lot. Roosters,<br />
geese and turkey can be kept on lots that are at least one<br />
acre, with other restrictions in place. The full ordinance can be<br />
found at go.osu.edu/pcchickens.<br />
West Jefferson: The village recently updated its legislation. A<br />
maximum of four chickens are permitted. A one-time $50 permit<br />
and an inspection are required. A conditional use permit may be<br />
an option if poultry is being raised for 4-H, FFA, or a similar<br />
youth organization. For the full set of rules, contact the village’s<br />
department of development at (614) 379-5250.<br />
If you’re thinking of raising chickens in our backyard, be sure to<br />
check local laws to see if they are permitted.<br />
Mount Sterling: No poultry or other farm animals are permitted<br />
within village limits.<br />
Care<br />
It can be tempting to purchase those sweet little chicks or ducks<br />
when you see them in the store, but please remember that they do<br />
grow up and can live for several years, so it is important to ensure<br />
you can care for them. Figuring out what to do with them after purchasing<br />
is not an option. Whether you purchase from a hatchery or<br />
supply store, a minimum number is required so they can maintain<br />
sufficient body temperature during travel. Be prepared to care for<br />
the minimum order or have a plan in place before they arrive for<br />
what you will do with the extra.<br />
Chicks have the same basic needs as<br />
other living creatures: food, water and<br />
shelter.<br />
Shelter: You will need a brooder because<br />
chicks have to be kept in an environment<br />
that is 90-95 degrees for the<br />
first two weeks. Drop the temperature by<br />
5 degrees every week until they are 1<br />
month old. They grow rapidly, so be prepared<br />
to make space as they grow. Ensure<br />
the housing is predator-proof, dry<br />
and clean. Good ventilation is also important<br />
to prevent illness and help with<br />
drying. One to two square-feet per<br />
chicken is a good estimate on space required<br />
for adult birds.<br />
Food: Use a starter feed for chicks<br />
that has 18-20 percent protein for at<br />
least five weeks. To prevent coccidiosis,<br />
use a medicated feed containing Amprolium.<br />
After five weeks, if you are raising<br />
meat birds, use a grower feed; if raising<br />
laying hens, use a layer feed. If you have<br />
a mixed flock, you can use a grower feed<br />
and supplement calcium. Layer feed is<br />
too low in protein for grower birds and<br />
will cause issues. Store feed in rodent<br />
proof containers. Select a feeder that<br />
keeps the feed clean and available to all<br />
birds.<br />
Water: Provide plenty of fresh water<br />
every day. Select a waterer that keeps<br />
the water clean and will not spill. Hanging<br />
waterers and feeders do a nice job at<br />
this. Chickens very easily figure out<br />
where to get water, so do not worry if you<br />
need to switch waterer types. If feeding<br />
through the winter, you will probably<br />
need a heated waterer. Chickens do not<br />
sweat, so in hot weather, make sure they<br />

<strong>March</strong> 30 field walk focuses on wheat evaluation<br />
By Amanda Douridas,<br />
<strong>Madison</strong> County<br />
Ag & Natural Resources Extension Educator<br />
Whether it’s been a while since you’ve<br />
grown wheat or since you have evaluated<br />
a wheat field, it is time to freshen up on<br />
how to do so. Even if you’re considering<br />
growing wheat for the first time, the upcoming<br />
Wheat Refresh & Field Walk will<br />
get you started on the right foot.<br />
On <strong>March</strong> 30, Dr. Laura Lindsey, soybean<br />
and small grain state specialist for<br />
OSU Extension, will lead a field walk at<br />
the Molly Caren Ag Center North Farm,<br />
1782 State Rte. 38, London. The site is located<br />
two miles north of the Farm Science<br />
Review.<br />
Lindsey will cover how to evaluate a<br />
field coming out of winter and talk about<br />
growth staging the wheat. Growth staging<br />
is critical for nutrient and crop protection<br />
applications. Lindsey also will share resources<br />
and recommendations on disease<br />
scouting and control.<br />
Nate Douridas, farm manager at the<br />
Molly Caren Ag Center, will have a<br />
sprayer set up for nitrogen application<br />
which will lead into recommendations for<br />
wheat. An air seeder will be set up for discussions<br />
on seeding timing, row spacing<br />
and rates. A combine with a wheat-specific<br />
setup will be on site, as well. An equipment<br />
specialist from Ag-Pro Ohio will be on<br />
hand to answer questions.<br />
The event is free and runs from 8:30 to<br />
10:30 a.m. To register, visit<br />
https://go.osu.edu/wheatrefresh. Contact<br />
information is requested for notifications<br />
in the event of a cancellation.<br />
Doughnuts, coffee and a limited number<br />
of corn, soybean, wheat and alfalfa field<br />
guides will be distributed. CCA credits offered:<br />
1 CEU CM, 1 CEU NM.<br />
Farm Bureau scholarships available<br />
The <strong>Madison</strong> County Farm Bureau<br />
will award scholarships to qualified high<br />
school seniors or students enrolled in college<br />
from <strong>Madison</strong> County who will be<br />
pursuing further education. The deadline<br />
to apply is <strong>March</strong> 31, <strong>2022</strong>.<br />

Biosecurity: Avian influenza is once<br />
again threatening domestic birds as migrating<br />
waterfowl move through our area. Keep<br />
your birds separated from any areas where<br />
waterfowl may be grazing. The Ohio Department<br />
of Agriculture will test birds suspected<br />
of having avian influenza. If you are<br />
in contact with other poultry or waterfowl,<br />
change your clothes, shower and disinfect<br />
your shoes before interacting with your<br />
poultry. For a list of vets that see poultry,<br />
visit: https://vet.osu.edu/extension/poultry-resources.<br />
Manure: Your birds will create manure.<br />
Please handle this properly. It can<br />
be composted and used in gardens. Some<br />
municipalities require it to be disposed of<br />
through garbage services. If the amount<br />
of manure gets to be too much, reduce<br />
your flock size to what you can handle.<br />

SULLIVAN<br />
Frances Louise Sullivan, 86, of Mount Sterling, Ohio,<br />
passed away on <strong>March</strong> 6, <strong>2022</strong>, after a short illness at<br />
Mount Carmel Grove City.<br />
Frances was born on July 29, 1935, to Mary and<br />
George Palmer in Pickaway County. She graduated<br />
from Clarksburg High School in 1954 where she played<br />
for the basketball and volleyball teams, as well as being<br />
a member of the Future Homemakers of America.<br />
After graduation, she entered the workforce, taking<br />
roles as cook and server at Wardells Party Home in<br />
Williamsport where she learned to make the most<br />
amazing dinner rolls that served her family for many<br />
years. She ultimately retired from Wincup were she<br />
worked for 20-plus years.<br />
Frances was an avid game show watcher and home<br />
participant. She loved to read and color in her adult coloring<br />
books. She enjoyed a great hamburger and a side<br />
of French fries, especially one coming from McDonald’s.<br />
She loved to cheer on the Buckeyes and watched every<br />
game on TV that she could. She loved to go shopping<br />
and exploring with her daughter, Marilyn, when she<br />
was able and enjoyed listening to John play his guitar<br />
and sing. You would always catch her tapping her toes<br />
and enjoying his voice. She loved to call Christy and just<br />
talk on the phone. She always started out with, “Hey,<br />
Honey, it’s me.” She never did realize we could see caller<br />
ID. She was a worrier about everyone and wanted to<br />
make sure we all stayed safe. And until she was no<br />
longer able to take care of everyone else, leaving herself<br />
for last. She loved having her family around and loved<br />
to just be near those she loved so she didn’t mind at all.<br />
Frances was preceded in death by: her parents; husband,<br />
James Sullivan; son, Edward Allen Hunt<br />
(Melissa); granddaughter, Crystal Lee Thomas; and sister,<br />
Mary Beech.<br />

Thomas, and Kevin Cliff of Kentucky. She was greatgreat-grandmother<br />
to Ashton, Aiden, Kendell, Alayah,<br />
Colston, Levi, and Kyleeah.<br />
She leaves behind a very special niece, Carol Kidd,<br />
of Springfield, Ohio—her original sidekick who went on<br />
dates with her and shared her love for hamburgers. She<br />
loved Carol very much and was so proud of the woman<br />
and life she made for herself.<br />
Beverly Dawson, her very best friend over the years.<br />
No matter where life took them, they always made time<br />
to call each other on birthdays and big events in their<br />
lives. They worked together at Wincup and shared<br />
many dances and many laughs. Your friendship meant<br />
the world to her and she loved you very much.<br />
Special thank-you to friends and neighbors, Tina and<br />
Dennis Wycuff. I am not sure how she would have gotten<br />
through without the help and compassion of these<br />
two selfless people. From emergency calls no matter the<br />
time of the night to the simple baked pies and goodies<br />
she enjoyed so much. Your friendship meant more to her<br />
then you will ever know, and our gratitude is endless.<br />
Special thank-you to the 4th, 6th, and 7th-floor nursing<br />
staff at Mount Carmel. Your compassion and care<br />
was seen. Thank you for being there and caring for her<br />
when we were not allowed to. Your compassion and care<br />
went above and beyond. Thank you for taking special<br />
care of our mother.<br />

Grand opening set for WJ Roughrider facility<br />
By Linda Dillman<br />
Staff Writer<br />
The ROC is up and running in West Jefferson.<br />
Built at a cost of nearly $2 million, the<br />
Roughrider Optimization Center (ROC) is a<br />
120x160-foot open-span steel building located<br />
between West Jefferson High School<br />
and the baseball and softball fields.<br />
It provides year-round practice space for<br />
the school district’s athletic teams and<br />
marching band and a place for school projects<br />
that need a large open space. The ROC<br />
opened its doors to students and coaches on<br />
<strong>March</strong> 7. An official grand opening for the<br />
public is scheduled for April 11 at 6 p.m. before<br />
the school board meeting at 7 p.m.<br />
On <strong>March</strong> 14, the school board officially<br />
accepted the optimization center from the<br />
West Jefferson Athletic Boosters, who donated<br />
the facility to the school district.<br />
Richard Dickerson and his family spearheaded<br />
the project. The facility was built entirely<br />
with donated funds, labor, supplies<br />
and equipment at no cost to Jefferson Local<br />
Schools.<br />
“The board is very grateful to Mr. Dickerson<br />
and his family, the Athletic Boosters<br />
and all who have contributed to this project<br />
in any way,” said board member David<br />
Harper. “The ROC is a great addition to our<br />
school’s complex.”<br />
Eighth-grade basketball coach and<br />
booster club President Kenny Love told the<br />
board the facility was expected to take one<br />
year to construct but was two years in the<br />
making due to the pandemic.<br />
“This blossomed from an idea to reality,”<br />
Love said. “Dick Dickerson brought it to us,<br />
so it really was his baby. A lot of shortfalls<br />
were covered anonymously.”<br />
Originally, the estimated cost of the facility<br />
was $500,000. In the end, it cost $1.9<br />
million. That amount was covered with<br />
$600,000 in cash donations and $1.3 million<br />
in in-kind services and supplies.<br />
“It puts us on par with other schools<br />
across the state. It’s a great facility,” Love<br />
said.<br />
Superintendent Bill Mullett emphasized<br />
the ROC was built at no cost to the school<br />
district and said organizers are still accepting<br />
donations. The structure currently has<br />
no running water.<br />
The donation campaign for the project<br />
kicked off in 2019 with a $100,000 commitment<br />
from the Dickerson family. In <strong>March</strong><br />
2020, Dickerson unveiled a draft drawing of<br />
the ROC which has a maximum capacity of<br />
200 people. At that time, commitments of<br />
more than $300,000 were received by the<br />
booster club.<br />
In September 2021, <strong>Madison</strong> Health<br />
made a $100,000 donation, payable in five<br />
$20,000 annual installments.<br />
