WEATHER BY ANDREW CARTER [email protected] COLUMBUS — Both candidates for Ohio’s 17th Senate District seat could face penalties in the wake of recent mudslinging ahead of the May 4 primary election. The Ohio Elections Commission announced Tuesday that it has found probable cause that both State Rep. Clyde Evans and State Rep. David T. Daniels have made false statements about each other during the course of the campaign. According to OEC Executive Director Phillip C. Richter, representatives for Evans, R-Rio Grande, and Daniels, R-Greenfield, have filed complaints with the commission. Daniels filed his complaint on April 20 in response to a flyer that Evans’ campaign mailed to 17th District voters that stated, “Danger is closer than you think,” in regard to Evans Daniels possibly being elected. The flyer also contained statements alleging that Daniels “voted to let sex offenders live near elementary schools” and further alleged that Daniels is “putting our children in danger.” Evans’ campaign manager Eugene Pierce said a written apolo- gy was issued to Daniels “within 36 hours” after the flyer was mailed to residents of the 17th District. Pierce said Tuesday that Daniels was trying “to score political points” Daniels with voters by making the allegations and that “people who know Clyde know that this is a distortion of his record.” He went on to describe Evans as a man of “high values and ethical standards.” However, the mailing from Evans’ campaign has drawn the ire of the Southern Ohio GOP County Sheriff promotes ATV safety BY MICHELLE MILLER [email protected] GALLIPOLIS — As warm weather sets in, the Gallia County Sheriff’s Office is gearing up for what inevitably follows: ATV accidents. While all the law enforcement agencies in Gallia County handle ATV accidents, the majority fall within the GCSO’s jurisdiction. In the hope of preventing those accidents, which can sometimes turn tragic, Sheriff Joe Browning urges residents to follow ATV safety guidelines whether at work or play. The ATV Safety Institute, a nonprofit organization that offers ATV training, has eight golden rules when it comes to ATV safety: 1. Always wear a helmet and other protective gear. 2. Never ride on public roads — another vehicle could hit you. 3. Never ride under the influence of alcohol or other drugs. 4. Never carry a passenger on a single-rider vehicle. 5. Ride an ATV that’s right for your age. 6. Supervise riders younger than 16; ATVs are not toys. 7. Ride only on designated trails and at a safe speed. 8. Take an ATV rider course. In addition, Browning urges riders to wear protective equipment and clothing while riding and reminds residents that children under the age of 12 are prohibited from operating an ATV with an engine size of 70cc or larger and must be 16 years old to operate an ATV with an engine size larger than 90cc. Chairs, a group that represents 18 counties. Last week, Chairwoman Diane Carnes wrote a letter to Evans that stated, in part, “The Southern Ohio GOP County Chairs were shocked and offended by a piece of campaign literature which has been distributed by your campaign committee” and “county chairs present at the April 17, 2010, meeting voted unanimously to condemn this piece of literature because it appears to be both inappropriate and inaccurate.” Evans’ complaint against Daniels was filed with the OEC on April 20 and alleges that Daniels made false statements about his own voting record and Evans’ voting record. Please see Fur, A6 Sidewalk repair scam reported in Gallipolis BY MICHELLE MILLER [email protected] Michelle Miller/photo If only it were this easy. While this isn’t a real arrest, authorities are struggling with a rise in ATV thefts. The chances of recovering a stolen ATV are slim because the vehicles are usually used on private property. According to Ohio State University Extension, Ohio ranks 15th in the nation for ATV accidents and one third of all injuries are to children less than 16 years of age. In addition to ATV safety, Browning urges residents to properly secure their ATV when not in use. Please see ATV, A5 GALLIPOLIS — On the heels of the City of Gallipolis’ efforts to have residents repair their unsafe sidewalks, now come the scam artists. Gallipolis City Manager Randy Finney said his office has received reports that someone is going door to door and telling residents if they do not contract with the company the person allegedly represents, the city will charge them a substantial penalty. Finney said he is unsure, at this time, if the people are actually contractors. In addition, the “contractors” are approaching residents who have not received a letter and telling them that a letter will be coming soon. While the city is still processing letters to residents regarding the condition of their sidewalks, Finney said the majority have already been mailed. “If they have not received a letter regarding their sidewalk, they are not required to repair it,” Finney said. Finney said the residents have been very positive during the process and wants to make sure they are protected. “We want to do whatever we can to help them out,” said Finney. Residents are urged to contact the Gallipolis City Code Enforcement office at (740) 441-6020 or (740) 441-6022 if they have been approached in this manner. In addition, residents can also check whether their property is actually on the list of sidewalks needing repaired. Prom safety top priority for lawmen and schools High: 65. Low: 37.

GALLIPOLIS — With prom season upon us, students and faculty at Gallia Academy High School are joining together to increase awareness among students about a variety of safety issues including driving without seatbelts and driving while intoxicated. GAHS Senior Jordan Cornwell, 17, said the events are sponsored by Stay Tobacco-free Athlete Mentor Program (S.T.A.M.P) and Student Council. “The activities are designed to make students more aware of their choices and how we have to live with those choices,” said Cornwell. The Gallia County Sheriff’s Office, in addition to adding extra patrols during the proms, is reminding parents that it is illegal to host teenage drinking parties in their homes. Under the Parents Who Host Lose the Most informational program sponsored by Drug-free Action Alliance with the support of the Ohio Department of Alcohol and Drug Addiction Services, pamphlets are distributed around the county which detail the consequence of hosting an underage drinking party, including heavy fines, possible jail time and confiscation of property.

The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution T O DAY I N H I S T O RY Today is Wednesday, April 28, the 118th day of 2010. There are 247 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On April 28, 1758, the fifth president of the United States, James Monroe, was born in Westmoreland County, Va. On this date: In 1788, Maryland became the seventh state to ratify the U.S. Constitution. In 1789, the mutiny on HMS Bounty took place as the crew of the British ship set Capt. William Bligh and 18 sailors adrift in a launch in the South Pacific. (Bligh and most of the men with him managed to reach Timor in 47 days.) In 1918, Gavrilo Princip, the assassin of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and the archduke’s wife, Sophie, died in prison of tuberculosis. In 1940, Glenn Miller and his Orchestra recorded “Pennsylvania 6-5000” for RCA Victor. In 1945, Italian dictator Benito Mussolini and his mistress, Clara Petacci, were executed by Italian partisans as they attempted to flee the country. In 1958, the United States conducted the first of 35 nuclear test explosions in the Pacific Proving Ground as part of Operation Hardtack I. Vice President Richard Nixon and his wife, Pat, began a goodwill tour of Latin America that was marred by hostile mobs in Lima, Peru, and Caracas, Venezuela. In 1967, heavyweight boxing champion Muhammad Ali refused to be inducted into the Army, the same day General William C. Westmoreland told Congress the U.S. “would prevail in Vietnam.” In 1980, President Jimmy Carter accepted the resignation of Secretary of State Cyrus R. Vance, who had opposed the failed rescue mission aimed at freeing American hostages in Iran. (Vance was succeeded by Edmund Muskie.) In 1988, a flight attendant was killed and more than 60 persons injured when part of the roof of an Aloha Airlines Boeing 737 tore off during a flight from Hilo to Honolulu. In 1990, the musical “A Chorus Line” closed after 6,137 performances on Broadway. Ten years ago: Five people, targeted for being minorities, were killed in a shooting rampage in suburban Pittsburgh; a suspect, Richard Baumhammers, was arrested. (He was later convicted and sentenced to death.) Five years ago: A military jury at Fort Bragg, N.C. sentenced Army Sgt. Hasan Akbar to death for the 2003 murders of two officers in Kuwait. More than 100 volunteers joined police in Duluth, Ga. in searching for Jennifer Wilbanks, a bride-to-be who had vanished two days earlier. (Wilbanks turned up in Albuquerque, N.M., having run away on her own.) One year ago: Sen. Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania defected from the Republican Party, joining the Democrats.

COOPER AND AMANDA LEE MYERS ASSOCIATED PRESS The frustration had been building for years in Arizona with every drugrelated kidnapping, every home invasion, every “safe house” discovered crammed with illegal immigrants from Mexico. The tensions finally spilled over this month with passage of the nation’s toughest law against illegal immigration, a measure that has put Arizona at the center of the heated debate over how to deal with the millions of people who sneak into the U.S. every year. A number of factors combined to produce the law: a heavily conservative Legislature, the ascent of a Republican governor, anger over the federal government’s failure to secure the border, and growing anxiety over crime that reached a fever pitch last month with the slaying of an Arizona rancher, apparently by an illegal immigrant. “It’s something that should have been taken care of for years. It’s not something we can keep slacking on,” said Thomas Fitch, whose neighborhood was the site of a raid last month that netted 11 illegal immigrants in a safe house. “At the rate we’re going now, it’s going to get a lot worse.” The new law makes it a state crime to be in the U.S. illegally and directs police to question people about their immigration status if there is reason to suspect they are illegal. Critics warned that the law could result in racial profiling and other abuses, and they are planning a legal challenge and a November referendum to overturn the measure. Supporters of the law say it is a commendable effort to combat what is fast becoming a scourge in the U.S. Arizona is the biggest gateway into the U.S. for illegal immigrants. The state is home to an estimated 460,000 illegal immigrants — a population larger than that of entire cities such as Cleveland, St. Louis and New Orleans. The Republican-dominated Legislature has backed a series of tough immigration measures in the past decade, only to have the most aggressive efforts thwarted by thenGov. Janet Napolitano, a Democrat. But the political stars aligned this year for the GOP. President Barack Obama appointed Napolitano to his Cabinet, clearing the way for Republican Secretary of State Jan Brewer to take over as governor. The GOP made a headlong rush back into the immigration debate, and Brewer signed the bill last week. The law reflects frustration with what many lawmakers see as inaction by the federal government. “While the Bush administration dropped the ball on border security and illegal immigration, the Obama administration can’t even find it,” said GOP state Rep. John Kavanagh. He said lawmakers also felt compelled to act because more immigrants will come to the U.S. as the economy improves and there is a “smell of amnesty in the air” under the Obama administration. Over the past three years, federal agents have made 990,000 arrests of immigrants crossing the border illegally in Arizona, or an average of 900 a day. The figures represent 45 percent of all arrests of illegal immigrants along U.S. borders. Authorities routinely come across safe houses and vehicles jammed with immigrants across the vast Arizona desert. Last week, 67 illegal immigrants were found crammed inside a U-Haul truck — a fairly typical scenario in the state. “We’re on a hampster wheel here. We’re chasing our tail until that border is secured,” said Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babea, whose territory includes busy smuggling corridors. The volume of drugs coming through the Arizona border is also eye-popping. Federal agents seized 1.2 million pounds of marijuana last year in Arizona. That amounts to an average of 1.5 tons per day. Pot busts have become so common that until recently federal prosecutors in Arizona generally declined to press charges against marijuana smugglers caught with less than 500 pounds. Phoenix has also been dubbed the kidnapping capital of the U.S. amid a surge of extortion-related abductions tied to drugs and human smuggling. The city has averaged about a kidnapping a day in recent years — some resulting in torture and death. Victims’ legs have been burned with irons, their arms have been tied to the ceiling, their fingers broken with bricks. The anger over immigration-related violence reached a boiling point in late March when a popular cattle rancher named Rob Krentz was gunned down along with his dog on his property near the border. With authorities suspecting an illegal immigrant, politicians seized on the killing to argue that border security is dangerously weak. There has long been strong public support in Arizona for a crackdown. In 2004, Arizona voters easily approved a law that denies some welfare benefits to illegal immigrants. It passed with 55 percent of the vote. In 2006, lawmakers put four immigration measures on the ballot, including ones that would deny other government benefits to illegal immigrants and make English the official language. Each measure passed with at least 70 percent. At the same time, Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio carved out a reputation as a national leader on illegal immigration, routinely carrying out raids in Hispanic neighborhoods that have prompted a federal investigation. He was elected to a fifth term in 2008. As the backlash grows over the law, people like Natalia Garcia are closely watching to see how it plays out. She and her husband are illegal immigrants and are afraid that they will get swept up. “It’s taking away our human rights because we have brown skin,” she said in Spanish while shopping at a Phoenix grocery store, adding that they will move their family back to Mexico if arrested. “Although we’ll live poor, it’s better to be together.” Wednesday, April 28, 2010 Obituaries R. Dylan Stumbo, 15, Crown City, “Went To be with The Lord” on Saturday April 24, 2010, at Holzer Medical Center. Born June 14, 1994, in Crown Point, Ind., he was the son of Ernest F.

ATV from Page A1 With the theft of ATVs on the rise, Browning said locating a stolen ATV is very difficult since the majority are used on private property. If a vehicle carrying an ATV is pulled over for a legal reason, the deputy will run the serial number, said Browning. “ATVs are thousands of dollars on wheels that can disappear in an instant,” said Browning.

Cyan Magenta Yellow Black REGION Gallipolis Daily Tribune Feds to step up mine enforcement BY SAM HANANEL ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — The government will start going directly to federal court to shut down mines that make a habit of ignoring safety, the nation’s top mine safety official told lawmakers Tuesday. Joe Main, director of the Mine Safety and Health Administration, said his agency has had the power to seek federal injunctions for years, but has never tried to use it. “I can’t speak for past administrations,” Main said during the Senate’s first hearing on the accident that killed 29 men. “We’re going to use it.” Main also called for a slew of other legal and regulatory reforms to beef up safety enforcement in the wake of this month’s deadly explosion at a mine in West Virginia. The Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee convened the hearing to look at weaknesses in current laws that encourage mine operators and companies in other industries to challenge safety violations to delay stiffer penalties. More than a dozen family members of the victims of past coal mine accidents clutched pictures of their loved ones as they sat in the hearing room. “There is unfortunately a population of employers that prioritize profits over safety and knowingly and repeatedly violate the law,” said Iowa Sen. Tom Harkin, the committee chairman. Harkin called the accident at the Upper Big Branch mine “a tragic example of the dangers of this approach.” The mine, owned by Massey Energy Co., was repeatedly cited for problems with its methane ventilation system and other issues in the months leading up to the accident. One category of serious violations was nearly 19 times higher than average. But Main said Massey used a tactic popular with some companies to avoid being placed on notice of a “pattern of violation” that could result in tougher enforcement. Mining companies are contesting hundreds of citations, creating a backlog that is overwhelming government officials. The massive backlog often delays a finding of a pattern of violation. Lawmakers heard from a coal miner who said he used to work at the Upper Big Branch mine but quit because he claimed Massey tolerated unsafe working conditions. Jeffrey Harris, of Beckley, W.Va., said mine workers would take a number of gas monitors to check for gas levels, but only report the lowest reading. “They would take air readings until they got the right one,” Harris said. Harris said workers would tear down ventilation curtains and rehang them only when inspectors came. Workers also shut down equipment when inspectors were at the mine so they couldn’t take readings while they were mining, he said. Main said he plans new rules to simplify the way his agency determines whether a mine has a pattern of viola- tions. He also called for new laws that would grant MSHA power to subpoena documents during its investigations, enhance criminal penalties for egregious violators and protect whistleblowers. Mining industry spokesman Bruce Watzman said there is no need for new regulations because MSHA already has the enforcement tools it needs. MSHA can use its existing authority to close mines for imminent danger or seek federal injunctions to shut down problem mines, he said. Watzman, a lobbyist for the National Mining Association, called for a new, cooperative emphasis on safety programs and warned that “regulations alone aren’t sufficient to bring about continued improvement.” Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., said it’s unfortunate that lawmakers often react to the latest disaster when deciding to improve worker safety laws. “But it’s a heck of a motivator and it makes us do things that we otherwise might not have done,” Rockefeller said. United Mine Workers union president Cecil Roberts said he wants CEOs and corporate boards of directors held accountable for work sites that repeatedly violate safety and health rules. He accused Massey of operating under a rule of “fear and intimidation” to prevent workers from speaking out about safety problems. The hearing did not focus on the specific cause of the mine explosion, which is still being investigated. Fur from Page A1 The complaint states that Daniels said he was “the only candidate in the 127th General Assembly awarded the Watchdog of the Treasury,” while in fact there were at least 16 Watchdog winners, according to the Ohio House Republican Caucus blog. The complaint also accuses Daniels of misrepresenting his and Evans’ positions on “pork barrel spending.” Additionally, Evans’ complaint states that Daniels wrongly accused Evans of voting for the Obama Stimulus, which would have been impossible for Evans to do since the stimulus is a piece of federal legislation. “This false attack from Clyde Evans is despicable,” Daniels said after the mailing was distributed. “I have a clear voting record of legislation that cracks down on sexual predators and I have always been a strong advocate for protecting those that are most vulnerable in our society. This mail piece is nothing but a mudslinging effort by a desperate politician who will stop at nothing to try to get elected.” Richter said that the Ohio Elections Commission could impose penalties against the candidates, but, according to state statute, cannot impose monetary fines. He said punishment could include issuing a public reprimand or allowing the fact that the commission found probable cause against both campaigns to stand as punishment. Richter also said that the commission could refer the matter to county prosecutors for further investigation, but emphasized that, given the nature of the allegations made by Evans and Daniels, he did not think the commission would call upon county prosecutors. Evans represents the 87th Ohio House District, which includes Gallia, Jackson and Vinton counties as well as portions of Lawrence and Ross counties. Evans is in his fourth term in the House. Daniels represents the 86th Ohio House District, which includes Clinton, Highland and Pike counties. This is also Daniels’ fourth term in the House.

Southern’s Maggie Cummins set down the first three Eastern batters of the game, striking out one. The Lady Tornadoes wasted no time getting runs across the plate, as Lindsay Teaford scored in the bottom of the first inning on an RBI double by Lynzee Tucker. Eastern loaded the bases in the second with a double by Kasey Turley, a walk to Tori Goble, and a single by Britney Morrison, but could not score. Southern’s Katelyn Hill doubled in the second, but Turley struck out three in the inning, leaving Hill on base. Both teams went three up, three down in the third. Eastern again loaded the bases in the fourth, with a lead off single by Brooke Johnson, Turley reaching on an error, and a single by Goble, but again did not score. Cummins lead off the home half of the fourth with a single, later coming around to score on an RBI single by Hill. Eastern’s first runs of the game came with two outs in the fifth inning. Brenna Holter singled, with Johnson reaching on an error, followed by RBI singles by Allie Rawson and Turley to drive in the Lady Eagles’ runs.

Pierce pitched a complete game, striking out five and PROCTORVILLE, Ohio — The Gallia Academy softball team blew a tworun lead in the bottom of the seventh, but rallied for three scores in the top of the eighth to claim a hard-fought Ward 5-2 victory over host Fairland on Tuesday night during a nonconference matchup in Lawrence County. The visiting Blue Angels (15Campbell 6) stormed out to a 2-0 lead after a halfinning of play and the score remained that way until the last half of the seventh. The Lady Dragons (9-9) — who defeated GAHS by a 2-1 margin in the season opener at Memorial Field — rallied back to score two unearned runs in the seventh, tying the contest at two apiece headed into extra innings. Gallia Academy, however, woke up its dormant offense in the top of the eighth, scoring three times to take a 5-2 cushion into the bottom half of the frame.

Nik Brannon walked to lead off the game for the visiting Eagles, but was left on base as the next three hitters were retired in order by Southern starter Danny Ramthun. Taylor Deem led off the bottom half of the inning with a single for the Tornadoes, but was tagged out attempting to score. Eastern again put its lead off hitter on in the second, with Andrew Benedum reaching on an error, followed by a walk to Chris Amsbary. Striking out two of the next three batters, Ramthun got out of the inning without scoring a run. Titus Pierce singled in the third and scored on a single by Benedum. Southern scored its first run in the bottom of the third inning, with Eric Buzzard scoring after being hit by a pitch. The Eagles scored four runs in the top of the fourth inning, with Ryan Shook, Max Carnahan, Brannon, and Pierce each scoring runs. Southern was scoreless in the bottom of the fourth leaving one on base. Ramthun retired the Eagles in order in the fifth, before Southern scored its second run of the game. Greg Jenkins walked and scored on an RBI single by Taylor Deem. Brannon led off the sixth with reaching on an error, followed by an RBI single Cavs eliminate Bulls in five, 96-94 Cleveland to face Celtics in Round 2 CLEVELAND (AP) — LeBron James just missed a triple-double despite an apparently sore right elbow, and the Cleveland Cavaliers advanced to a playoff date with Boston by beating Chicago 96-94 in Game 5 on Tuesday night in perhaps Vinny Del Negro’s final game as Bulls coach. James, favoring a tender right elbow that appears to hurt worse than he’s letting on, scored 19 points — 16 in the second half — and added 10 rebounds and nine assists as the Cavs finally saddled the stubborn Bulls to win the series 4-1. Unable to lift his right arm, James was forced to shoot a free throw lefthanded with 7.8 seconds left. Antawn Jamison scored 25 points for Cleveland, which will face the Celtics, reuniting teams that don’t like each other and who played a testy seven-game series in 2008. Game 1 is Saturday. “A lot of people are saying they’re too old, but we know they’re going to come out and give us their best shot,” said Jamison, who was not with the Cavs the last time Cleveland met Boston in the postseason. “It’s going to be a hard-fought series. It should be fun.” Derrick Rose scored 31 points and Luol Deng 26 for the Bulls, who had several shots roll in and out in the final minutes. Delonte West had 16 points and Shaquille O’Neal added 14 while racking up fouls against Chicago’s big men. The Cavs were intent on closing out the series at home but they couldn’t shake the Bulls, who were trying to send the series back to Chicago for Game 6. When Jamison buried a 3pointer with 3:30 left, Cleveland was up 93-84, and for the first time all night Cavaliers fans finally started thinking about a matchup with the Celtics, who eliminated Miami earlier. The Bulls, though, had other plans. Deng hit a jumper and two free throws before Rose, who made Cleveland defenders look silly all series, made four straight from the line to pull the Bulls within 93-92 with 1:32 remaining. Two free throws by James then gave Cleveland a three-point lead with 1:11 left. Rose then tried a short shot in the lane that went halfway down before spinning out.

Page B2 • Gallipolis Daily Tribune www.mydailytribune.com Wednesday, April 28, 2010 RedStorm drops a pair to archrival SSU Eastern BY MARK WILLIAMS SPECIAL TO THE TRIBUNE WEST PORTSMOUTH, Ohio — The University of Rio Grande RedStorm softball team lost both ends of a doubleheader on Tuesday afternoon to archrival Shawnee State at Boone Coleman Field in the regular season finale. Rio lost game one, 4-2 in 10 innings in walk-off fashion and was blanked 1-0 in game two. Rio Grande (29-21) managed only one hit in the game one defeat as the offense was next to non-existent against Shawnee State pitching. Junior shortstop Amber Bowman had the only hit for Rio and it came in the ninth inning. After two runners had reached base on errors, Bowman doubled home both runs to give Rio Grande a 2-0 lead and a seemingly sure-fire victory. However, it was not to be as Shawnee State (24-21) answered with two runs in the bottom of the ninth off Rio starter and tough luck loser Anna Smith, who is the reigning Mid-South Conference Pitcher of the Week. Smith (16-14) allowed three doubles in the bottom half of the inning that tied the Cavs from Page B1 who shot a dismal 2 for 13, then missed a baseline runner but the ball went out of Angels from Page B1 safely on a one-out error, then Morgan Leslie was hit by a pitch — giving the guests two baserunners. Heather Ward followed with a two-RBI double, plating Noe and Leslie for a 4-2 cushion. Ward later came around to score on a Claudia Farney single, allowing the Angels to take a 5-2 advantage through seven-and-a-half frames. Rally from Page B1 The Lady Tornadoes battled back in the bottom half of the inning, adding three runs, to take a 5-2 lead. Breanna Taylor started the inning with a single, Teaford walked, and Tucker got on by an error. Tucker drove in Taylor, and a two RBI double by Cummins brought Teaford and Morgan McMillan (courtesy runner for Tucker) around to score. The Lady Eagles began the top of the sixth with a walk to Morrison, and Jenah Sampson and Hayley Gillian reaching on errors. Holter and Johnson each drew walks, bringing Morrison and Sampson around to score. RBI singles by Rawson and Turley brought Gillian and Holter across the plate, and a walk to Goble scored Johnson. Morrison hit a bases loaded triple in her second at bat of the inning to score Rawson, Cheyenne Doczi (courtesy game at 2-2. Smith’s line for the game read nine innings, nine hits, four runs, nine strikeouts and five walks. SSU would win the game in walk-off fashion in the bottom of the 10th inning on a tworun home run from Brooke Baker. Baker had a big game, collecting three of the nine Lady Bear safeties. Katie Daniel (11-12) went the distance to get the win for Shawnee State. She allowed one hit and two unearned runs in 10 innings, posting nine strikeouts and did not walk a batter. Game two was a close encounter with Rio Grande tallying four hits while Shawnee State registered only three. Shawnee scratched out a run in the bottom of the second inning and made it stand up for the doubleheader sweep of Rio Grande. Sam Attinger reached on an error to start the frame. One out later she stole second and then scored on a base hit off the bat of Ashley Speas. Freshman centerfielder Jessica Gall was 1-for-2 with a stolen base to lead Rio Grande. Freshman designated hitter Mackenzie Rucker, sophomore first baseman Chelsie Brooks and freshman second baseman Katie Fuller were all 1-for-3. Sophomore hurler Allison Mills deserved a better fate as she lost the pitcher’s duel with Shawnee’s Ali Thompson. Mills (13-6) allowed three hits and one unearned run in six innings of pitching. She fanned two and walked one. Thompson (13-9) blanked the RedStorm on four hits while striking out three and walking one. Rio Grande and Shawnee State split the season series with each school sweeping a doubleheader at home. The RedStorm are the No. 4 seed in the upcoming MidSouth Conference Tournament and will square off with No. 5 Cumberlands (KY) in the first round on Friday (April 30) at 12 p.m. Rio and Cumberlands split the season series at two games apiece. Notes: The University of Rio Grande’s Anna Smith is the Mid-South Conference Softball Pitcher of the Week, the conference announced on Monday. This is the final weekly regular season award of the year. The conference’s weekly award is the third this season for Smith. Smith hurled a pair of com- bounds off Chicago’s Joakim Noah. The Bulls did get the ball back on a steal, but Rose forced up an awkward left-handed layup over Anderson Varejao that was short. James grabbed the rebound and was fouled. He made his first attempt to make it 96-92, but with his elbow causing him pain, he tried his second shot lefthanded and it was way off the mark. Down four, the Bulls got a layin by Deng just before the buzzer. FHS went down in order in its half of the eighth, allowing GAHS to avenge that earlier setback with a three-run triumph. The Angels produced 10 hits and committed two errors in the victory, while Fairland knocked out seven hits and committed three errors. Both GAHS and the Lady Dragons stranded eight baserunners in the contest. Ward, Farney and Kari Campbell all led the Angels with two hits, followed by Mattie Lanham, Hannah Cunningham, Courtney Shriver and Amanda McGhee with one safety apiece. Woodall and Phillips both led FHS with two hits each. Ward was the winning pitcher of record, allowing zero earned runs and two walks over eight innings while striking out seven. Sashe Burcham took the loss after surrendering three earned runs and zero walks over eight innings, striking out 10 in the process. runner for Turley), and Goble. A sacrifice by Sami Cummins scored Morrison for the second time in the inning. Turley struck out all three Southern batters in the sixth. Rawson walked in the seventh, but did not score as the Lady Eagles held an 11-5 advantage. Tucker and Cummins each singled in the seventh, with Cheyene Dunn reaching on an error that sent Brooke Chadwell (courtesy runner for Tucker) and Cummins around to score. Turley pitched a complete game, striking out 11, walking two, and allowing 10 hits. Cummins pitched all seven innings, striking out four, walking five, and allowing 12 hits. Eastern was led at the plate by Turley with three hits, including a double. Morrison and Rawson each had two hits, while Gillian, Holter, Johnson, Goble, and Sampson, each had one hit. The Lady Tornadoes were led in hits by Cummins and Hill with three hits each, including a double each. Tucker had a single and double, while Taylor, Teaford, and Dunn each had one hit.
