Posted by Fred Steiner on May 27, 2016 - 2:44pm

Power is out in the Hunters Run and Shannon Street neighborhood as a result of a power pole being knocked over. A refuse truck struck a low-hanging AEP power line on West Riley, according to Bluffton police. Then, another driver, unaware of the problem, drove very close to the fallen lines. That vehicle is stopped in the center of the street, but it did not cause the power outage. Riley Street is closed between Garmtter and Shannon. Police report that AEP is on the way, but it is unknown when service will be returned.

Posted by Fred Steiner on May 27, 2016 - 1:15am

In January of 2016, Bluffton University's Terrill Webb (Kenton) had yet to clear 12' in the pole vault. Qualifying for the NCAA national championship was just a dream.

In the space of the past 5 and a half months, she has become a two-time All-American, risen to a tie for 3rd at the outdoor national championship and is scaring 13 feet as a PR. Thursday's Division 3 NCAA Outdoor National Track and Field Championship was the culmination of that meteoric rise.
