Alumni on hand for final game in 1922 building
The last game played at Port Clinton Middle School took place on Thursday, Feb. 2, when both the seventh and eighth grade boys teams played Huron. For decades, Redskin players have taken the court in the 1922 building, which was the high school through 1963. About 60 PCHS alumni were in attendance to witness the last game in the current building. The new Port Clinton Middle School will open in 2012. A ceremonial tip-off with John Papcun, Class of 1956, started the event. Papcun is in both the Port Clinton High School and University of Toledo Halls of Fame for Basketball. Alumni took the stage/gym floor to take their last shot at the basket followed by the current middle school teams. After the net was cut down, PCHS Senior Emaleigh Dunn sang the Alma Mater as the lights on the gym floor faded. Pictures from the event along with video and a slide show of former basketball teams dating back to 1915, can be found on the Port Clinton City School District website at www.pccsd.net under News. Though the seventh-graders lost their game against Huron 49-31, the eighth-graders remained undefeated in the Sandusky Bay Conference winning 54-49.
and air pistol and two 40-shot standing matches and finals in womens air rifle. There is no womens air pistol in the Olympics at this time, however; womens air pistol competitors will use the trials for competition experience. The leaders of Part 1 were determined by highest aggregate qualifica-
tion scores plus the higher of two finals fired over two days. The same course will be fired again in February. Its safe to say that only those competitors who finished high in the rankings each day in Anniston will have a chance at locking up roster slots when the competition concludes at Camp Perry.
Top shooters at Camp Perry for Army Junior ROTC Service Championships
The top Army Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps individual and team air rifle shooters from 16 states as well as Germany and Guam will gather this weekend, Feb. 9-11, for the 2012 Army JROTC Service Championships. The actual shooting competition will be on Feb. 10 and 11, at the Civilian Marksmanship Programs Marksmanship Center North, Camp Perry. The competitions will be three-position air rifle events fired at a distance of 10 meters. The Army JROTC individuals and teams that qualified for this championship won qualifying matches up through brigade level. The top teams and individuals from the Army Service Championships will represent Army JROTC at the all-service JROTC national Championships in Anniston March 22-24.

While some have identified agricultural runoff as a key issue, Gardner said municipal waste problems and violations at waste plants in Detroit contribute to polluting Lake Erie.

Weekly News From Lady Redskins go thud OTTERBEIN against Perkins Pirates
www.otterbein.org Coach Toby Bickels girls basketball team was on a bit of a roll for a while, but ran into a buzz saw on Saturday in a 51-32 loss to the Perkins Pirates. The team struggled with the Perkins defense all afternoon in a game that looked fairly even going in. Both teams entered the game with 11-5 overall records and 7-4 records in the SBC. The Lady Redskins managed just seven field goals for the entire game, but did make 16 charity tosses to keep things close for a while. Hope Thorbahn was the only Redskin player in double figures with 12. The Lady Skins play three games inside of a week to finish their regular season. Contests are at Huron on Saturday, then back home for a pair of games against Fremont Ross on Tuesday and Clyde on Thursday night.
