Campbell, 77, who has an extensive military background himself, said he is now trying to fill in the blanks of the soldier who received the award and hopes to reunite it with the relatives of the fallen soldier. The Purple Heart that Campbell has is engraved with the name James Eldon Sherwood of Piqua, a World War II soldier who died in the line of duty as the war drew to a close in the European theatre. Sherwood, 20, a private first class in the Army, died in Belgium on March 12, 1945, as a result of "shrapnel wounds," according to historical documents kept at the Piqua Public Library. "I am retired from the military so it interested me," said Campbell, who served the Army from 1953-80 and retired as a SHERWOOD See Soldier's family/Page 2 FOR Piqua Schools www.cfqps.org Paid for by: CFQPS, Lisa Feeser, Treasurer 212 N.

This opportunity includes a chance to view a DVD that Piqua City School officials believe will help explain the need to participate in the Ohio School Facilities Commission's offer to help fund three new school buildings in the city -- two Pre-K-Grade 3 and one Grade 4-6 facilities. For the past 10 years, Piqua has been waiting on the list of Ohio schools to receive OSFC funding -- but in order to participate in this program, local voters must pass a 4.93 mills bond issue on Nov. 8. The bond would ensure the local portion of the project -- 53 percent of the estimated $54,880,540 cost. The state's share would be 47 percent or $25,793,854 of the estimated cost.

The Nov. 8 campaign committee, Citizens FOR Quality Piqua Schools (CFQPS) headed up by cochairs Frank Patrizio and Clayton Brown, along with many volunteers, has been busy getting the word out, said Supt. Rick Hanes. Today's Levy Walk will allow volunteers to walk specific neighborhoods in Piqua and pass out the DVD, which highlights several reasons why school officials and board members approved the proposed plan to consolidate and build three new facilities. Many local personalities, as well as school teachers, staff and parents also are featured on the DVD presentation. "We're trying to do the entire district, based on voter registration," Hanes said of today's Levy Walk. Volunteers hope to greet residents at their front doors and give them a copy of the DVD, Hanes said. If no one answers and there is a spot that "we can leave it," then volunteers will do so. It is hoped that the residents who receive the DVD will watch it, then pass it along to a friend, relative or co-worker who also is a Piqua resident, but might not have received one at their home. Information on the upcoming bond issue also is available at the campaign committee's website, www.cfqps.org, which also features the DVD that is being passed out today, as well as other information concerning the bond issue campaign and upcoming election. Helping to organize today's Levy Walk was High Street Principal Teresa Anderson.

"Although Ruth was born really little and born early, you would not know that at all." After a second pregnancy ended in miscarriage for Marie, blood tests showed she was positive for a Factor V blood clotting issue. In a third pregnancy, Marie followed recommendations of her doctor and the March of Dimes, taking daily shots, calcium and low dose aspirin. Information used by the doctors was the result of research conducted by the March of Dimes, Carity said. The Caritys' son, Cole, was born full-term healthy in August 2010. "The March of Dimes helps babies, but it also helps mommies. To have a healthy baby you have to have a healthy mommy," said Marie Carity, the agricultural education instructor/FFA adviser at Miami East High School in Casstown. Husband Brent works at Precision Strip in Minster. The Carity family this year is serving as the Miami County March of Dimes Ambassador Family. Marie's sister has helped with March of Dimes fundraising activities for a number of years. The organization's activities include the annual Miami County Signature Chefs Auction.

Mark 11:15 (ESV) Letters Open Mike Residents urge support of school levy To the Editor: The opportunity is here for the citizens of Piqua to take advantage of state funding to pay for 47 percent of the cost to build three new school buildings for our students -- for the future of our community. What better investment than our youth. With the need for upgraded technology in today's world, the need to be very energy-efficient minded and the need to be fiscally responsible in spending costs, it is very evident that new buildings would help in all of these areas. Current buildings do not allow teachers to maximize technology for today's needs and those for tomorrow. The district has taken many steps to improve energy efficiency, but the bottom line is that a new structure would maximize that energy usage and cut down on costs. Putting more money into current buildings would still not solve those problems. Administration and staff have made cuts in many areas to save money and to exercise financial efficiency. There is a limit as to how much can be done to reduce costs and still maintain quality for our staff and students at an efficient cost. Replacing older equipment and repairing problem areas in our current K-6 buildings is like applying a band-aide to fix it. It will work for awhile but then something else needs to be fixed. Two new buildings to house K-3 and a new 4-6 building will further consolidate staff and allow for more teamwork at each grade level. New technology to meet the needs of today and tomorrow will be available and better prepare our students for their future. By using the site of the former Piqua Memorial Hospital for the proposed 4-6 building, the community will use space that has been an eyesore in our city for many years. What a great way to convert an area into a public facility which will service not only our students but the community. We strongly encourage voters to vote "yes" for the bond issue and the tax levy for Piqua City Schools. Those that have come before us supported schools for us. It's our turn to support our schools for the children of today and tomorrow. Please join us in voting yes on Nov. 8. --Gary and Gretchen Roeth Piqua It's time to get out of Middle East s we begin this last quarter of 2011, our country marks another somber milestone, the 10th anniversary of our war in Afghanistan. For our troops it will be business as usual, for our military personnel are operating as they have for the past two-and-a-half centuries. They fight whomever they are told to fight, and they do so in a manner which does credit to themselves and to our country. As we mark this anniversary, it is time to step back and take a look at what we have gained. No doubt, our world is safer now than 10 years ago, at least from some aspects. I am bothered by the stories I see, and read, about the Afghan people. My take is that they really do not want us there in the first place. This seems to be not much different than the war the Russians fought on that same ground. I see shades of Vietnam. The French fought, and lost, their war in Vietnam some years before we arrived on the scene. We are in danger of allowing history to repeat itself. The war in Afghanistan runs the same risk as Vietnam. The minute that American troops cease to be in the front lines, taking an active part in the fightMIKE ULLERY ing, the Afghan army Chief Photographer will fold and war lords will again seize control of the ground that our troops fought, and died, to win. We will, once again, have spent more than a decade fighting and dying for ... nothing. Yes, we are fighting for human rights, too. No one wants to see the brutality that goes on in many other areas of the world. The question becomes, "Is it really any of our business?" America has, since the post-Civil War era, considered itself the watchdog of the world. The problem seems to be though, that we think that our ways are always the best. This trait was not formed in America, it was brought across the seas from our European forefathers, but once on American soil, we sure perfected it. Look at our ancestors' attitude toward the American Indian tribes. Rather than even attempt to live with them, we just decided force them to live by our rules, in the tiny corners of the country that we were "kind" enough to grant to them. What gave us the right then? There were more of us and we were better armed. But, were we better people for it? Along the way, we also fought for some legitimate and noble causes, primarily in the two World Wars. By and large, though, the majority of our wars have had serious political undercurrents. Afghanistan is no different. One has only to look at President Obama's timeline for troop withdrawal. Do you think it coincidence that the bulk of American troops are scheduled to come home two months before the 2012 presidential elections? It is not just Obama. Politicians have been using our military as pawns for years. Our political leaders' single biggest mistake in wars is in not fighting to win. Sure, there are political implications with bringing in additional troops or taking a certain piece of ground. But we owe it to our troops to fight to win, rather than feeding them piece-meal into a grinder. During the Korean War, General Douglas MacArthur said, "There is no substitute for victory." This American hero and Medal of Honor holder was relieved of duty shortly thereafter. The American political machine did not listen then and they still are not listening. It is time for America to get out of the Middle East. It is time for Americans to live and let live. We must stop trying to force our way of life on others. I wonder if it ever occurred to our leaders that "they" would leave us alone if we would only leave "them" alone.

Not yet. And George Clooney would be in the club if only someone could convince him to show up for the ceremony. When it comes to receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the sidewalk tourist attraction that encompasses 15 blocks of Hollywood Boulevard and three blocks of intersecting Vine Street, it's not so much who you know, but whether you're willing to play by the rules. For starters, someone in the celebrity's camp must first fill out an application form that includes the star's signed promise that they "We've had applications will attend the cerefrom Santa Claus and the mony.

"Somebody insisted Shakespeare should have a star," Martinez adds. Typically, the Walk's committee annually selects 20 to 24 new honorees, who must then pay a $30,000 sponsorship fee. This covers the cost of constructing the three-foot-wide stars as well as the cost of the ceremony. A portion of this money also goes to the Walk's trust fund for continued maintenance. Of course, the honorees themselves rarely foot the bill. Recipients have five years to schedule their ceremony. Most celebrities time the event to coincide with a promotional opportunity. "Stars like to make it a big deal," Hollywood Chamber of Commerce president Leron Gubler says. "That's the way they are. They get a little more bang for their buck out cer awareness campaign. Etheridge, 50, was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2004 and has been a spokesperson for the event for the past six years. "It's forever," Etheridge says of her star, following a morning ceremony attended by an estimated 500 people, including many fans who traveled on their own dime from across the country to be at the event. "We've been playing this fame game for 100 years here in this city of dreams," Etheridge adds, noting she came to the Walk of Fame when she visited Los Angeles as a teenager. At 51, the Walk of Fame is roughly half of Hollywood's age, and many of its stars are in need of a little cosmetic surgery. Tree roots along Vine Street have caused the stars' black and pink terrazzo concrete to crumble. Heat and foot traffic are factors, too, contributing to the buckling of the stars' brass name lettering, borders and emblems. The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce initiated a restoration project in 2008, grading each of the walk's stars. Nearly 800 were targeted to be repaired or replaced. Raising the $4.2 million needed to complete the project hasn't been easy. Corporate sponsors have donated about half the total, to go along with money from private donors and a portion of the proceeds from the star ceremonies. Though still short of the goal, Gruber says he hopes work can begin next year. "We don't have the money to do the whole walk," Gruber says. "We'll start with the worst sections and go from there." Redevelopment, including the Hollywood and Highland complex and its Kodak Theatre, the permanent home of the Academy Awards, have bolstered the fortunes of the walk's west end in the past decade. The Walk of Fame, along with the famous movie star footprints at Grauman's Chinese Theatre, remain popular attractions for tourists visiting Los Angeles. "They're iconic places that still resonate with people, though what's in the imagination probably doesn't align with the reality," says USC professor Leo Braudy, whose book "The Hollywood Sign" covers another area landmark. "It's a way for people to connect with their favorite celebrities," Braudy continues, "though if you really want to meet one, you'd have a lot more luck going to the nearest supermarket."

After South's three-club response, North leaped to the notrump slam. Radin won the opening club lead with dummy's king and cashed the K-Q of hearts.

East was also forced to part with a spade in order to guard diamonds. At this point, Radin knew that East had started with three clubs and only two hearts, which meant that the majority of East's original hand was comprised of spades and diamonds. Furthermore, East had made two diamond discards when the A-J of hearts were cashed, increasing the likelihood that East had started with at least five diamonds. Reading the situation perfectly, Radin cashed the A-K of spades and then led a diamond to the nine. East won but had to return a diamond from the K-6 into dummy's AQ, and the slam was home. daily call Click it! .com Solve it UNIVERSAL Sudoku Puzzle Complete the grid so every row, column and 3 x 3 box contains every digit from 1 to 9 inclusively.

Having opened two years ago and located at 1268 E. Ash St., next to MC Sports in the Walmart Shopping Center, Dave and his wife, Linda, have embraced the shipping industry whole-heartedly. They offer shipping services through UPS, FedEx, DHL and USPS. Other services include Notary, color-copying, faxing, packaging supplies, office supplies, laminating, eBay, gift baskets and candy. If you have an oddly shaped item to send, Dave can manufacture a box to fit it. "We ship for commercial, industrial, retail and eBay clients," Westgerdes said.

Saturday, October 8, 2011 9 Edison Goin' Postal event to host Store to donate to cause business workshop PIQUA -- The Small Business Development Center at Edison Community College is hosting a Government Procurement workshop on Tuesday at the Piqua campus in Room 057, North Hall. The event will run from 7:30-9 a.m. (doors open at 7 a.m.) and will be presented by the Central Southwest Ohio Procurement Technical Assistance Center. This breakfast training session will provide guidance on how to create an effective capabilities statement -- a government marketing tool can enable your company's products, services, and capabilities to be easily translated into "government speak."

PIQUA -- Goin' Postal has been in business for two years now and owner Dave Westgerdes is grateful for the support he has received from the community. "Because the community has received us so well, we have been able to double our business in the two years we have been here," Westgerdes said. "I want to give back to the community that has supported our business by partnering with the Piqua Area United Way for a three-day shipping event." He is referring to a shipping event which will take place on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week, when Goin' Postal will donate a percentage of each package shipped on these days to the United Way. `My wife and I believe in the work the United Way is doing in Piqua and we want to help them reach to aid United Way PROVIDED PHOTO Dave Westgerdes, owner of Goin' Postal, is creating packaging for an odd-shaped item that a customer needed shipped out of state. Making custom containers is one of the services offered at Goin' Postal. The business will donate a portion of its proceeds to the United Way from items shipped Monday-Wednesday of this coming week. American retailers report solid gains for September NEW YORK (AP) September offered the latest sign that Americans will shop, but only when they think they're getting a deal. International The Council of Shopping Centers said Thursday that revenue rose 5.5 percent in September, with several retailers including Target, Limited Brands and Kohl'sposting strong gains as consumers snagged discounted merchandise. The revenue increases, which beat Wall Street estimates, leave uncertainty about whether retailers will have to offer more bargains to lure consumers to buy during the winter holiday shopping season. Retailers can make up to 40 percent of their revenue during the period, which runs from November through December.

Watch for the unusual, discarded and forgotten to provide some tasty opportunities. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Usually it can be more effective to use a soft sell, but if this isn't the case for you at this point don't hesitate to assert your points and/or position. Go for the mattresses, and you'll end up quite comfy. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Working in close conjunction with a cohort can make things easier for both of you, but if you have to do an assignment all on your own, don't fret. You'll do a bang-up job. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Even if you get off to a tardy start, you'll still be capable of accomplishing all that you want to get done. You should be remarkably efficient and productive. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- As much as you may be tempted to burn the candle at both ends, it may not be such a good idea to do so. Your energy, initiative and luck may all have their limitations, and besides, you're low on wax. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Tasks that are too difficult or more than anyone wants to handle could all be dumped in your lap. Yet it'll be exactly these kinds of jobs that put you in such a good light with the powers that be. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Listen carefully when conversing with friends. There is a good chance that some kind of information could be mentioned in passing that is meaningless to others but very valuable to you. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- By utilizing your smarts in all your endeavors, both in business-related issues as well as personal ones, this can be one of your more successful days. Keep your gray cells a-popping. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Just because a difficult objective isn't achieved on your first try doesn't mean you should chuck the old terry cloth. Your resolve and persistence could pay off. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- By doing what you said you would do, you will show others just how trustworthy and reliable you really are. It's our mode of behavior that wins us the respect of our peers. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Should you hear through the rumor mill that a pal of yours is feeling neglected and forgotten, make the necessary time to assuage this fretful friend. Chums are too valuable to lose. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Even if you see yourself as an underdog, don't let up on your efforts to accomplish your goals. You should do rather well, even in competitive developments, by never giving up. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- If you want things to work out in a positive manner, you must remain confident of being able to reach your goals, even if you are challenged beyond what you thought. You're luckier than you suspect. COPYRIGHT 2011 UNITED FEATURE SYNDICATE, INC.

Scammers will send a check and ask the seller to wire the excess through Western Union (possibly for courier fees). The scammer's check is fake and eventually bounces and the seller loses the wired amount. While banks and Western branches are Union trained at spotting fake checks, these types of scams are growing increasingly sophisticated and fake checks often aren't caught for weeks. Funds wired through Western Union or MoneyGram are irretrievable and virtually untraceable. If you have questions regarding scams like these or others, please contact the Ohio Attorney General's office at (800)282-0515.

Example: The sellers receive two offers from different buyers. The first buyer plans to secure a new mortgage loan for thirty years. The lender will be charging three "points" in order to give the buyers the lowest possible interest rate. The buyers' offer asks the seller to pay the three discount points, and half of the closing costs. The buyers offered full price - $130,000 but the sellers will net only about $116,000 after all expenses of the sale. The second buyer offers only $126,000 $4,000 less than the asking price. However, the plan to secure a 15-year loan, with no discount points, and to pay their own closing costs. In this case, the sellers will "net" about $118,400. In other words, the sellers will net $2,400 more from the lower offer! When considering offers to purchase your home, ask your agent to explain your net proceeds. You may be pleasantly surprised by an offer that at first glance seems to be lower than another. A tale of two nets Kathy Henne Re/Max Finest If you could conjure up the ideal home sale, it would probably be a full price, for cash, with closing in a week. If that happened, and your price was $130,000, how much would you net? There is a difference, of course, between "gross" and "net" selling prices. If you sell for $130,000, then your "gross" would be the full amount - $130,000. The "net" is an entirely different story. Anytime you sell a home, even for cash, you will have at lease a small amount of closing costs. Those costs are deducted from the "gross" price to determine your "net." Strangely enough, sometimes a lower offer Real estate representation Which party in a real estate transaction is represented by the real estate agent--the buyer or the seller? Until recently that Broker/ Owner question was never asked because the answer was always 937-371-1719 the same. Traditionally all the marketing professionals involved in real estate transactions were legally and ethically obligated to conduct business on behalf of the seller. They may have aided the buyer in certain situations, but their client was the seller. Today that is not necessarily the case. In a time of increasing specialization, buyers can be represented by a real estate agent who functions solely as a buyer's broker. In this case, the sales professional helps the buyer locate a home, negotiate the price, and is responsible to the buyer only, for an agreed-upon fee or a percentage commission. In any real estate transaction you have the right to know which party the real estate agent is representing. Cyndie Scott Home buying for young people: plan ahead Granted, few young people spend much time day-dreaming about buying their first home. They're naturally preoccupied with academics, athletics, parties, dating and future career possibilities. Nonetheless, there are a number of good reasons to start learning early in life about the costs of buying a home and the responsibilities of homeownership. For example, a college student's misuse or abuse of credit cards can preclude his or her buying a home later on. Here are five recommendations for young people who want to position themselves for homeownership: 1. Establish good credit habits and a BY MARCIE GEFFNER realtor.com favorable credit history. Get a credit card and use it responsibly. Apply for an automobile loan and make your payments on time every month. If you're renting an apartment, put your own name on the lease and the utility bills and make sure the rent and the bills are paid every month. If you're already struggling with credit card debt or have large student loans, take a free workshop from the non-profit Consumer Credit Counseling Service. Call (800) 388-2227 for information. 2. Start saving for a down payment and closing costs. It's possible to purchase a first home in many parts of the country without much in the way of savings. But in high-cost housing areas, starting to save early can be enormously beneficial because you'll get the advantage of compounding interest and have a longer period of time to grow your investments. Open a savings account or a stock brokerage investment account and make regular deposits. 3. Read some books. Your local library and bookstore probably have at least a few shelves of books about financial management and buying a home. Take notes. Make a financial plan for yourself. You can learn a lot about real estate, budgeting and credit on REALTOR.com� too. 4. Research where you'd like to live. Many young people assume they'll continue living in their own home town when they get older, but people are more mobile than ever and chances are good you'll one day live in another city or even another state. Again, the library, bookstore and Web can be excellent resources for information about housing costs and homeownership opportunities around the country. 5. Tap your real estate agent relatives for advice. Parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles or older cousins in the real estate business can give you good information about the cost of housing in the area where you want to live and what it takes to buy a home. Questions to ask: Is housing affordable in this area? How much money would I need to save in order to buy a home? What advice would you give me about planning my financial future? Would you recommend some books that I might like to read about buying a home? Don't be shy. If you have a question, ask someone in a position to know the answer.

Adding to resume Doubles team wins sectional BY ROB KISER Sports Editor firstname.lastname@example.com TROY -- The Lehman doubles team of Kandis Sargeant and Nicole Larger is the most successful in school history -- amassing more than 70 wins over the last three years, while losing just five matches. They haven't lost a regular season match since their sophomore season and have a 24-0 record this season. But, one title that had eluded them was Troy Division II sectional champions -- until Friday. In a match the duo felt they needed to win to accomplish their ultimate goal of getting to state -- they outlasted Milton-Union's duo of Andrea Fetters and Jessie Finfrock in the first set -- then won the final six games of the match in a 6-4, 6-2 victory at Troy City Park. They had beaten the MiltonUnion duo of Brooke Falb and Jesica Ferguson in the semifinals by a score of 6-2, 6-2. See TENNIS/Page 17 Nicole Larger hits a backhand in a doubles match Friday.

F-M goes to 10-2 on the year. The two teams battled on even terms, with the Jets only outshooting Lehman by an 8-6 margin. "It was a hard-fought game," said Lehman coach roger Toon. "Even though we lost, it was our best effort this year. We never gave up and never gave in. "We held a very tough opponent to two goals and just eight shots. We possessed well in the midfield. We just could not find the finishing touch. The Cavaliers are back in action Saturday, hosting the Greenon Knights. And after an 80-minute war between two teams boasting milestone-reaching coaches, the Bethel Bees were the ones left standing - albeit on wobbly, bruised bodies - after a 2-0 Cross County Conference victory. "It was a very physical game. There were a lot of stoppages," said Bethel coach Bob Hamlin, who won his 300th game on the season's opening night this year. "The game never really got into a flow at all. Newton played very well, and our kids overcame some adversity." And after a scoreless first half, Kyle Hamlin -- last year's CCC Player of the Year -- broke the tie and gave Bethel (13-1, 6-0) the lead.

Tennis Continued from page 16 by a score of 6-2, 6-2. That gives them a number one seed heading into the district tournament Thursday, while teammate Meghan Bennett will go as a four seed in singles. "Definitely, we knew we had to win this match," Larger said. As it turned out, the third time was the charm. "Two years ago, they lost to their teammates (Ciara Sargeant, Morgan Shroyer) and last year they lost to Milton-Union (Andrea Fetters, Sally Trout)," Lehman coach Pippy Booth said. "These girls are good, they now how to think and adjust as the match goes on." And they certainly had to do that in the second set. After Larger held serve to open the match, there were six straight breaks of serve. After they rallied from 15-30 down on Larger's serve, with three straight points, they broke Milton's serve to take the first set. "That was a huge momentum changer for us," Sargeant said. "We just couldn't get into any rhythm that first set." Even more so was the third game of the second set. After dropping the first two games of the set and with Larger serving, the Lehman duo ran off six straight games to win the match. "I was struggling with my first serve," Sargeant said. "I kept hoping it was going to go in and it finally did. That helped a lot." Booth said there were two differences in the second set. "In the first set, Andrea Fetters was hurting us with some great returns on serve," Booth said. "That was setting up the lefthander (Jessie Finfrock) at the net. That was giving us a lot of problems. "I talked to the girls about going to the I formation, but they didn't want to do that. I told them if we got in a jam, that is what we were going to do." It never came to that, because Larger and Sargeant both raised their games in the set -- as they have done so many times in clutch situations. "We started getting some shots in," Larger said. "We started making shots and we pump each other up out there." When that happened, the Bulldog duo, who was struggling to get their serves in, had no answer. "That is the best Nicole (Larger) has ever volleyed at the net," Booth said. "That was big in the second set. This was a big win for them." Now, all that stands between them and state is two wins Thursday. I Bennett, also a senior, has always been one to see the glass as half full. So, the third seed was still smiling after losing to second seed Kenzie Detrick of Springfield Shawnee 6-1, 6-2 and fourth seed Lauren Davy of Northeastern 6-2, 6-2. "I know some people would look at it as a negative, but that (being positive) is the way I am choosing to look at it," Bennett said. "My goal for my senior year was to make it to district in singles and I accomplished that." Bennett felt like she played pretty well against Detrick. "She is a great player," Bennett said. "I thought the match was a little closer (than the score would indicate). There were a lot of games that went deuce." She trailed just 3-2 in the first set against Davy, before the Northeastern junior went on a run. "In that match, the shots I needed to go in weren't going in and the shots she needed did," Bennett said. Booth knows Bennett has nothing to lose Thursday, when she will face a sectional champion in the first round at district. "That's right," the Lehman coach said. "Her goal was to get to district and she accomplished that. "She had a tough day today, but both those girls she face played as well as they could play." Like the doubles team, Bennett will need two wins to get to state when things get underway Thursday at the ATP Tennis Center.

OSU, Huskers put tough week behind Meet in first Big Ten game in Memorial Stadium INCOLN, Neb. (AP) -- No. 14 Nebraska and Ohio State will play the first Big Ten game at Memorial Stadium on Saturday night and end a stressful week for two of the winningest programs in history. The Cornhuskers (4-1, 0-1) have been facing questions about their underperforming defense after an embarrassing 4817 loss at Wisconsin. Then quarterback Taylor Martinez went public with his frustration over growing criticism of his play. "This week," Nebraska receiver Kenny Bell said, "we're going to find out a lot about our football team." Same goes for Ohio State (3-2, 0-1), which is coming off a 10-7 loss at home to Michigan State. The Buckeyes thought they would get back four top players who were suspended for their involvement in the cash-and-tattoo scandal. But two of those players have to sit out at least the Nebraska game for accepting summer job money. "When things happen, when we lose a game, when other adversities happen, the circle becomes tighter and tighter, and you have to pull closer and closer," Buckeyes coach Luke Fickell said. Nebraska's defensive shortcomings have been a concern for weeks, but they were exposed like never before by Russell Wilson and the Badgers. Coach Bo Pelini, who will be facing his alma mater in Ohio State, figured to spend the week looking for a fix. But a distraction cropped up Monday when Martinez lashed out at fans and media who panned him for throwing three interceptions against Wisconsin. Martinez complained he gets "ripped" no matter what he does. Pelini laid into reporters after practice Thursday, saying they had created a firestorm around his sophomore quarterback. "You guys trying to get a reaction from him?" Pelini said. "Is this a deliberate thing?" Teammates spoke in support of Martinez and said it was unfair for people to pile on the quarterback. "Next person to say anything about my QB to me, I'm slapping in the face. No warning," Bell tweeted. The Huskers can't afford a loss to the Buckeyes if they hope to control their fate and get to the Big Ten championship game. They were the preseason favorites to win the Legends Division and are a game behind Michigan and Michigan State. "Just like last year, we lost to Texas and still got to the Big 12 championship game, so we know that it is still out there," receiver Brandon Kinnie said. "That's why I believe guys are not giving up at all, pointing fingers or doing anything like that. Staying together is another key thing this week as well. All we have to do is win out and we'll be fine." The Buckeyes had been pointing to the Nebraska game since December, when five-game suspensions were announced for players who accepted cash and free tattoos from a Columbus, Ohio, tattoo parlor owner. The suspensions were supposed to end Saturday. But only two of the four players they expected to get back, offensive lineman Mike Adams and defensive lineman Solomon Thomas, have been reinstated. Receiver DeVier Posey and running back Daniel Herron will have to sit out at least one more game, along with offensive lineman Marcus Hall. Injuries also have left the Buckeyes shorthanded. Defensive tackle Nathan Williams remains out after arthroscopic knee surgery four weeks ago. Receiver Verlon Reed is done for the year after tearing a knee ligament in last week's loss. The Buckeyes hope receiver Corey "Philly" Brown can play after missing four games with an ankle sprain. Linebacker Andrew Sweat said the season is testing the Buckeyes' wherewithal. "Even if it isn't today or tomorrow, I think it makes us stronger as men, as individuals," Sweat said. "Even if it's not just football, I think the adversity we're facing makes us stronger people. Our strength coaches in the offseason preach mental toughness and try to do things to make you mentally tough. I just think you have to move forward and let the adversity make you stronger." Freshman quarterback Braxton Miller will make his third start and first on the road. The Buckeyes' offense generated just 178 yards and allowed nine sacks against Michigan State. Had they not scored with 10 seconds left, they would have been shut out at home for the first time since 1982. "Braxton is just going to keep getting better every week," center Mike Brewster said. "He's in a tough spot. It's hard for a young guy, but you'd like to see him just keep growing and getting better. Hopefully this is the week for us to take that step."
