In 1956, he bought a dental practice on the corner of Madison and Erie in downtown Toledo, where he practiced for more than 30 years. Bill married Susan Warns, and in August they celebrated 37 years of marriage. He enjoyed sailing, skiing, and making others laugh. He never turned down an adventure.

St. Rose collects coats, warm clothing During December, St. Rose School eighth graders Jake Cowan and Stephanie Ravas collected coats, warm clothes and other winter wear for the Helping Hands of St. Louis in East Toledo. Their original goal was 700 items, but with the generous support of St. Rose Parish and St. Rose School, they collected more than 1,400 items. Jake, Stephanie and their families delivered the items to St. Louis on December 18. By the end of November, the Clothing Closet at the neighborhood center in East Toledo had been depleted of coats, hats, mittens and scarves so Paul Cook, director of Helping Hands of St. Louis, was very grateful for the donations. As the weather remains cold, many people in the Toledo area will be warmer because of the generosity of St. Rose.

They fought hard through four quarters and two overtimes to defeat Northview for the second time this season. The Jackets’ 53-49 victory pushes them to 11-0 overall and 8-0 in the Northern Lakes League. The first quarter was a great indicator to how hard both teams were going to battle. Both teams were littered with turnovers, combining for 15 of them and four team fouls in the first five minutes of the game.

The Jackets were led by the scoring of Nick Moschetti, with 19 points, and Shane Edwards, with 18. The Yellow Jackets now improve to 7-2 overall and remain undefeated in the Northern Lakes League with a record of 4-0. Despite the lopsided victory, the first quarter was very close and low scoring by both sides. Edwards added four quick points at the beginning of the quarter, and Nate Patterson added a basket underneath and the first quarter ended in a 6-6 tie. Moschetti and Edwards combined for the first nine points of the second quarter, giving Perrysburg a seven point lead. The highlight came off a Bryant Byrd lob pass from the top tler knocked down a three from the top of the arc to give the Jackets a 9-4 lead with two minutes remaining in the quarter. This would remain the score heading into the second. The second quarter, which provided much more scoring from both sides, was started by Sarah Baer hitting a fast break layup to extend the Perrysburg lead to seven points. Northview steadily chipped away at the lead, preventing Perrysburg from having open jump shots on the offensive end. This combined with LadyKats sharp shooter Kendall McCoy being perfect from the field, knocking down three shots in a row including a three pointer from the corner, pulled Northview within two points. Northview trailed 15- 13 with three minutes until the half. Katie Dunphy turned the momentum back toward the Jackets, hitting a three pointer from the wing. However, Northview pushed the ball upcourt and responded to Dunphy’s three with one of their own. McCoy knocked down a baseline jumper on Northview’s next possession to tie the game. Despite the quick response, Perrysburg did not slow down. Baer put in another layup and Sattler converted a free throw to give the Jackets a three-point edge, 21-18, at halftime. Northview gained the lead in the third quarter, controlling the offensive rebounds and cruising on a quick 9-0 run in the first three minutes of the second VA half. The Jackets trailed 27- 21. Perrysburg then rallied with a 7-0 run of their own which was started with a Dunphy three pointer and was capped off with a Sattler layup to give Perrysburg the lead, 28-27. To finish the quarter, Northview regained the lead by one point off of two McCoy free throws. Baer came alive in the beginning of the fourth quarter, scoring five points in a row to propel the Jackets to a 32-29 lead. Perrysburg and Northview traded a one-point lead for the rest of the quarter until Alex Brown made two free throws and Sattler added another, each going to the line with a one-and-one opportunity because Northview now had seven team fouls. This gave the Jackets a 39-35 lead with 39 seconds left. That’s when Northview’s McCoy drove to the baseline made a jump shot to pull within two, which was followed by a very controversial call. Perrysburg was called for a foul under the basket after McCoy’s shot went in but somehow McCoy landed back at the free throw line and made both shots to tie the game. Perrysburg Coach Todd Sims took a timeout and drew up a great play, breaking Northview’s press and resulting in an easy Baer layup and two-point lead. The LadyKats pushed the ball immediately up the right side of the court and dished it inside to post player Kendall Jessing, who tied the game despite being double-teamed.

Northview hung around with their three point shooting but trailed 19-14 early in the second. Northview was playing inspired basketball, thanks in part to the tough play from Connor Hartnett who converted two post up jumpers and two free throws. Despite his tough play, Northview couldn’t gain the lead because of Patterson’s inside presence. On the offensive side of the ball, he added two baskets underneath the hoop with less than two minutes until half to give Perrysburg a 25-20 lead. To start the second half, Perrysburg gained a 12point lead in the first 55 seconds. Edwards hit a three from the top of the arc on the opening possession. Then Moschetti stole a Northview pass and laid it in, and Patterson converted a jumper underneath the hoop on the following possession. Perrysburg was on its way up, 32-20. Halfway through the third quarter, the lead was extended to 15 points when Edwards stole a pass at half court, dribbled it ahead and slammed it with two hands while Northview players watched from behind. At the end of the third quarter, Northview struggled to get into an offensive rhythm working the ball around but not being able to convert a basket. Perrysburg held a 17-point lead headed into the final quarter. Through the fourth quarter, Northview could not close the gap. The closest they could get to the Jackets was 16 points. The daggers came with two minutes remaining in the game when Edwards and Moschetti both added three pointers to go up by 27 points. Perrysburg girls outlast Northview in double OT Perrysburg quickly inbounded the ball and pushed to score for the win but could not convert the attempt as the buzzer sounded for overtime with both teams tied at 41. After neither team scored for the first three minutes of overtime, Maddy Williams got a baseline jumper to roll in but McCoy of Northview nailed a three at the other end to give Northview a one point lead. Northview began to play keep away with less than a minute remaining, and after a Perrysburg foul, the LadyKats converted two free throws to go up by three points. With 29 seconds remaining, the Lady Yellow Jackets found themselves down by three with Northview’s leading scorer McCoy at the line shooting two with the game seemingly close to being over. However, McCoy missed both free throws and on her second miss, Williams jumped on the loose ball and handed it ahead to Lindy De- Long, who dribbled the ball the length of the court and was fouled while making her layup. She then converted her free throw to tie the game at 46 with 18 seconds left. Neither team scored in the remaining 18 seconds and the game was extended to a second overtime. Perrysburg outscored Northview 7-3 in the second overtime, with all of the Jackets’ points coming from the free throw line. Sattler put the game away, making her final two free throws for the Jackets with 18 seconds left to give Perrysburg the dramatic 53-49 victory.
