We were able to get the ball underneath to our posts on offense and score. Tre' Neil and Donald McElligott are two of our posts, which com bined for 23 points with Tre' only playing one quarter. Donald had 14 rebounds in the game and Tre' brought down 10 rebounds. The entire team played great. I’m very happy with their perform ance and hustle on the floor,” said lone A ssistan t Coach Brian Spivey. lone vs. Helix, Jan. 18 lone JV 49, Helix JV 16 Fouls lone JV 10, Helix JV 10 Score by Quarters lone JV: 19,28,44. 49 Helix JV: 4,9, 13, 16 Player: Reb, Ast, Pts Danny Doherty: 0, 0, 2 Henry Padberg: 1, 0. 0 Donald McElligott: 3, 0, 5 Joe Doherty: 3, 0, 2 Austin Carter: 0, 0. 0 Colton Hollis: 0, 1, 0 Zane King: 4, 4, 2 Daniel Holtz: 1, 0, 2 Jason Juarez: 5, 5, 14 Tre’ Neil: 18, 2, II Joel Stillman: 1, 0, 6 Jorge Aguilar: 9, 0, 5 “We put some pressure on Helix’s guards, which created a lot of turnovers, and we were able to score on most o f those,” said Spivey. “Jason Juarez and Tre’ Neil combined for 25 points in two quarters. Tre’ also had 18 rebounds in the game. Jorge Aguilar, which is one of our big posts, has returned to the lineup and had nine rebounds. It’s nice to have Jorge back; he is strong underneath and can hold his ground in there. Between Tre' and Jorge in there under the basket, there is not much room for anybody else, and that is the way 1 like it!

PIONEER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL & NURSING FACILITY M orrow County Health District Excellence in K e « l t h c a r e V Animal science students from lone Community School get cozy with miniature donkeys. Thanks to the generosity of Tom Shear and Sharon Woodside, students get to work with three miniature donkeys, running them through courses and, of course, all the grooming. “Most of these students have little to none actual livestock experience,” said teacher Erin Heideman. “It’s neat for them to get the opportunity to have some hands-on practice w ith animals beyond cats and dogs. Sharon and Tom have been very generous with their time and talents, and what started out as a quick visit is gradually moving into almost a once-a-w eek meeting.” Students in the animal science class are eligible to earn between three and six college credit through Blue Mountain Community College.
