The River View Review
The Black Bears and coach Todd
Herman will be invading the 'Cats Lair on Friday for Senior Night in
Cambridge. Originally the last home game scheduled for the
season (New Philadelphia still needs to be rescheduled as a home
game), the game will feature Cambridge's four senior players, Luke
Fabian, Ryan Jamiel, Kyle Cox, and Ryan Hatmaker. River View
enters the game at 1-16 with their last contest coming against
Claymont, a game that the Bears dropped, 68-37. River View
generally starts two seniors in Dusty Langley, a 5-10 guard and
Steve Hammond, a 5-7 guard. Hammond dropped in nine points in
the Bears' last contest versus Claymont. Junior, Brice
Rinehart plays hard as a 6-2 forward joined by 6-0 sophomore Michael
Adams in the paint area. Six-four senior, David Massie, led
the Black Bear scorers versus Claymont with eleven points.
Rounding out the potential contributors on Friday for River View are
two six-foot seniors in Jacob Stevens and Blaine Cox. The
Black Bears have presented multiple schemes on defense from a 2-3
zone to a 3-2 zone to a man-to-man looks.

Lessons From
Geese (From Mrs. Hannon)
Fact #1 As
each goose flaps its wings, it creates uplift
for the birds that follow. By flying in
a "V" formation, the whole flock adds 71%
greater flying range than if each bird flew
alone.
Lesson: People who share a common
direction and sense of common purpose can get
where they are going quicker and easier because
they are traveling on the thrust of one another.
Fact
#2 When a goose falls out of
formation, it suddenly feels the drag and
resistance of flying alone. It quickly
moves back into formation to take advantage of
the lifting power of the bird immediately in
front of it.
Lesson: If we have as much sense as a
goose, we stay in formation with those headed
where we want to go. We are willing to
accept their help and give our help to others.
Fact
#3 When the lead goose tires, it
rotates back into formation, and another goose
flies to the point position.
Lesson: It pays to take turns doing
the hard tasks and sharing leadership. As
with geese, people are interdependent on each
other's skills, capabilities, and unique
arrangements of gifts, talents, or resources.
Fact
#4 The geese flying in formation honk
to encourage those up front to keep up their
speed.
Lesson: We need to make sure our
honking is encouraging. In groups where
there is encouragement, people do much better.
Fact
#5 When a goose gets sick, wounded, or
shot down, two geese drop out of formation and
follow it to help and protect it. They
stay with it until it dies or is able to fly
again. Then, they catch up or join another
flock.
Lesson: If we have as much sense as
geese, we will stand by each other in difficult
times as well as in good.
