ment, struggled to hit shots with
any consistency in Fridays PIAA

Carlisle sets national indoor record
Carlisles boys distance medley relay team broke a
17-year-old national record by running a 9:56.18 in the
New Balance Nationals Indoors at The Armory (New
York).
Its nearly four seconds faster than the 9:59.94 mark
set by Gloucester, according to PennTrackXC.
Sam Affolder ran a 3:02.11 in the opening 1200-meter
leg, setting up Jared Griffies 51.71 in the 400. The Thun-
dering Herd then turned to veteran Isaac Kole, who ran
a 1:57.41 in the 800. Noah Affolder, the reigning PIAA
Class 3A cross country champion, posted a 4:04.95 in
the final 1600 leg.
Brentwood finished in second by more than 16 sec-
onds.
LOCAL COLLEGE
Colleen Young had 15 points and
Morgan Griffith eight, to go along with
16 rebounds, but Shippensburgs wom-
ens basketball season came to an end in
the first round of the NCAA Division II
Tournament with a 63-51 loss to Mercy-
hurst on Friday. It was the programs first
trip to the dance since 2002. Natalie Pia-
Griffith gessi was too much for the Raiders (24-
7), scoring 21 points in the win. Angela
Heintz was equally impressive, scoring
16 points to go along with nine board,
six assists and two steals. Shippensburg
held a 30-26 lead at the half at Califor-
nias (Pa.) Harner Hall, but that quickly
evaporated when Mercyhurst went on an
8-2 run to start the third and pulled away
Young by the end of the frame 48-36.

Class 3A Scrambling for medals

From C1
his head hard off the hockey
boards at matside. The up-
hill climb continued in Day
2, when after an 8-2 win over
Bethlehem Catholics Ryan
Zeiner in the second round
of consolations he was set
up for an elimination bout
against Cumberland Valley
senior Will Kaldes.
The Eagle wrestler had be-
deviled Wills until two weeks
ago, at one point winning four
straight against him. But just
as he had done in the District
3 tournament, Wills came up
on the winning end against
Kaldes, nabbing a 12-5 victory
in their third-round consola-
tion bout that secured Wills
his first state medal.
I looked at the bracket,
and I said, Theres a couple
ways I can wrestle Will, and I
guarantee I will, Wills said.
I wrestled three times last
year. Thats just how it hap-
pened. I wrestled twice so far
this year. I had a feeling I was
going to wrestle him. Fate has
it that way, apparently.
Wills exhibited no ill effects
from the previous nights head
knock, and he looked fresh
in the second period against
Kaldes when he racked up two
sets of nearfall points to pile
up a 7-0 advantage. That was
more than enough for him to
cruise to the win.
The Southcentral Region
champ now has the look of a
dangerous wrestler, one ca-
pable of making a run higher
up the medal stand. He hopes
to emulate his friend Dylan

is somewhat of anomaly
among the 195-pounders at
the state tournament, a long
and lanky grappler in a land
of fireplugs.
That difference has ne-
cessitated a bit of a different
style for Koser, who parlayed
his scrambling ability and his
understanding of angles into
his first state medal Friday.
The Polar Bear secured his
spot on the stand with a 3-0
victory over Shippensburgs
Cole Forrester in the third
round of consolations, a win
clinched when he notched a
takedown on a scramble late in
the third period. It was simi-
lar to his win in Thursdays
first round, when a takedown
from a third-period scramble
gave him a victory over Upper
St. Clairs Eli Grape.
I think thats how I win
most of my matches, Koser
said. It plays a big role for
me. I dont think my coaches
really like when I get in funky
positions, or whenever some-
body is on a deep shot and I
reach over, because thats
not a good technique. But
whenever I get into scram-
bling positions, Im really not
worried.
Koser had been knocked
into the consolation bracket
by a quarterfinal loss to South
Philadelphias Miles Lee.
Koser had a 3-0 lead early
in the second when Lee de-
termined it was time to take
shots, and he racked up three
in regulation and another in
the sudden victory period for
an 8-6 win.
Koser bounced back well
from that defeat, holding
District 3 cohort Forrester
at bay in their match. It was
a bout of tie-ups for much of
its duration, with Koser cap-
italizing on a second-period
escape to put the pressure
on Forrester late, ultimately
ending in the scramble, and a
sigh of relief for Koser.
I think now its more about
having fun, Koser said. I got

Michigan State, thought to have

DAVID GINSBURG

WASHINGTON The Big Ten
has stepped out of its comfort
zone, leaving the familiarity of the
Midwest for the busy streets of the
nations capital.
After alternating between Indi-
anapolis and Chicago the previous
19 years, the Big Ten Tournament
is making its debut this week a few
blocks from the White House. The
calculated move has been met with
mixed reviews.
Its always better when its
around our house, said 76-year-
old Chicagoan Jack Mikulski. But
were here.
Like many other Big Ten faith-
ful, Mikulski and his contingent
planned to make the most of it.
Itll be in New York next year.
Well go there also, he said. This
is a chance to travel around the
country. Well, its an excuse to
travel around the country.
Not everyone seems to agree.
The tournament is not sold out
this year, but then again, it didnt
always sell out in the Midwest.
Commissioner Jim Delany
makes it sound like moving the
tournament is similar to taking a
trip to a second home, not uproot-
ing the family.
I think its just a strong state-
ment that weve expanded,
Delany said. Its different, but I
think its important to us to express
to the people of Maryland and at
Rutgers and at Penn State that we
truly want to live in two regions.
Tickets for games not involving
Maryland have been readily avail-
able on StubHub, at bargain prices.
But the Maryland-Virginia-DC
area is very much a transitory re-
gion, which provided 64-year-
old Dennis Marshall of Davison,
Michigan, a reason to head east.
For me, coming from just north asked.
of Detroit, this is great, Marshall
said. I called my son, whos a
teacher in Maryland, and said,
Guess whats going on in your
area? Were going to see some
basketball.
And then there are those Big Ten
grads that live in the region.
Ron Brooks, 59, once a Hoosier,
now lives in Fairfax, Virginia. He
and his wife, an Indiana graduate,
are delighted to have the tourna-
ment so close though he isnt
thrilled about how it got here.
Im old school, Brooks said,
so I dont like that they added
Maryland and Rutgers to the Big
Ten. But the good news is that I
get to see Big Ten basketball in my
backyard.
Said Marshall: There are so
many people from around the
country that are here. Its nice for
them to see their alma mater play.
Plus, there are so many things to do
other than just watch basketball.
Mikulski was stunned to learn
he was standing in front of Fords
Theatre, where Abraham Lincoln
was shot.
I want to see the Smithsonian.
Thats around here, right? he
Yes, along with a few other
things.
Washington offers a lot more in
the city compared to Indianapolis
and Chicago, said 19-year-old
Paul Keen of Chicago, a member
of Mikulskis traveling party.
Michigan State coach Tom Izzo
agrees, saying, There are some
great, great things to do here. I
know my wifes happy. (But) get-
ting to practice is a little more dif-
ficult because of the traffic here.
I mean, God bless you people, I
dont know how you do it.
For those who traveled from
the Midwest, theres a small taste
of home on the rotating ad board
at midcourt. Theres Iowa-based
Pizza Ranch; Meijer, a store chain
in Michigan; Tire Rack of Indiana
and Michigan-based Auto-Own-
ers Insurance.
In making the move to Wash-
ington, Delany ultimately decided
there wasnt any reason to delay
the inevitable.
We could have waited five or 10
years but we thought we should do
it now, he said. Its like anything
else if you wait until its conve-
nient, you might be waiting a long
time.
Not to mention, theres a good
chance of getting seen and heard in
Washington and New York.
The media capital of the world
is up and down that corridor,
Delany said. So there are a lot of
reasons for us to be there. And if
youre going to be there, you might
as well really be there.
All legitimate reasons, though
for 57-year-old Rich Keen of Chi-
cago, it comes down to basketball.
Its 10 games in three days,
Keen said. If you like to watch
basketball, this is the place to be.

Who is the top conference in March?

after a rough start to the season,
took another step toward the field
of 68 with a convincing win over
Penn State.
No surprise there, either. The
Spartans always seem to find an-
other gear once the calendar turns
to March.
This year, Id say weve had
some success in March, Mich-
igan State coach Tom Izzo said.
I mean, what basketball coach
doesnt like March? Everybody
loves March.
The Big East had a few moving
parts as well.
Xavier picked up a big resume
booster by beating No. 18 Butler
62-57. Seton Hall helped itself
with an 82-76 win over Marquette,
a game that could leave the Golden
Eagles at least a little nervous on
selection Sunday.
One game in the Pac-12 may
have sent two teams in opposite
directions.
California bounced back from a
30-point loss to Utah two weeks
ago by holding off the Utes 78-75
in Las Vegas. The Bears may still
have some work to do, but at least
they wont have to worry how an
early exit from the Pac-12 Tourna-
ment will play with the selection
committee like the Utes will.
Colorado also will have to sweat
it out after losing to No. 7 Arizona.
Georgia managed to keep its
NCAA hopes alive at the SEC
Tournament by holding off Ten-
nessee. The Bulldogs get a shot at
a big boost against No. 8 Kentucky
in the quarterfinals on Friday. Van-
derbilt earned a similar must-win
by beating Texas A&M as did Mis-
sissippi over Missouri.
STEVE MEGARGEE

Determining which conference
has fared the best in the March
the last three years can be a
heated discussion.
The best? That honor belongs
to the Atlantic Coast Confer-
ence.
The ACC has won 70 percent
of its NCAA Tournament games
the last three years and has sent
12 teams to the regional semi-
finals and seven to the regional
finals during that stretch. No
other conference has more than
eight Sweet 16 representatives
or five regional finalists over the
last three years.
But before crowning the ACC,
consider no league has separated
itself when it comes to the most
coveted accomplishment in the
tourney: Final Four appearances
and national championships.

ment profiles for each of the

TERENCE CHEA edibles and topical ointments to

Associated Press
ichael Fasmans 12-year-old
M issues, including her own elderly
dog, Hudson, limps from pain
caused by arthritis and an am-
putated toe, but Fasman doesnt
want to give her painkillers be-
cause they just knock her out.
So the San Francisco resident
has turned to an alternative med-
icine that many humans use to
treat their own pain and illness:
marijuana.
On a recent morning, Fasman
squeezed several drops of a canna-
bis extract onto a plate of yogurt,
which the Portuguese water dog
lapped up in seconds. Its become
part of Hudsons daily routine.
We think its really lifted her
spirits and made her a happier
dog, Fasman said. Its not that
shes changed. Shes just back to
her good old self.
As more states legalize mar-
ijuana for humans, more pet
owners are giving their furry com-
panions cannabis-based extracts,
ointments and edibles marketed
to treat everything from arthritis
and anxiety to seizures and cancer.
Most of these pet products,
which arent regulated, contain
cannabidiol or CBD, a chemical
compound found in cannabis that
doesnt get pets or humans high.
They contain little or no tetrahy-
drocannabinol or THC, the can-
nabis compound known for its
psychoactive effects.
But veterinarians say there isnt

enough scientific data to show
cannabis is safe and effective for
treating animals. Although med-
ical marijuana is legal in 28 states,
it remains illegal under federal
law, so there has been relatively
little research into its potential
medical benefits for humans or
animals.
Veterinarians in California and
other states are legally barred
from prescribing or recommend-
ing cannabis. They risk losing
their veterinary licenses if they do.
Our hands really are tied, said

sociation. Definitely were get-

asking about it for their pets, but
unfortunately we dont have any
answers for them.
Karl Jandrey, a veterinarian who
teaches at the University of Cali-
fornia, Davis, said he tells his cli-
ents they use them at their own
risk with the potential to spend
money for no improvement, or a
risk of adverse side effects.
Despite the lack of scientific
data or veterinary guidance, many
pet owners are convinced canna-
bis has improved their animals
health and well-being, based on
their own observations.
Lynne Tingle, who runs a pet
adoption center and animal sanc-
tuary, regularly gives cannabis
older dogs with health or behavior
dogs Chorizo and Alice.
You just see a real differ-
ence in their spirit. Theyre just
not in pain, so theyre happier
and theyre moving better, said
Tingle, who founded the Rich-
mond-based Milo Foundation.
They just get a new lease on life.

tions over their legality.

their pets, recommending dif-

TreatWell pet tinctures can help
treat anxiety, poor appetite, pain,
inflammation and seizures, as well
as kidney and liver problems, can-
cer and glaucoma, according to
its website. They also are used in
end-of-life care.
What we find is a lot of the an-
imals are coming to us when there
are no other options and pharma-
ceuticals havent worked for that
animal, Ettel said. Theyre at
that last resort, and cannabis is
really good for those types of sit-
uations.
