ONU honorary captain

Posted by Fred Steiner on Thursday, March 3, 2016

Six-year-old Kenley Wilson was the honorary captain of the first-ever men's intercollegiate lacrosse competition on Feb. 27, at Dial-Roberson Stadium. Kenley is a brave little girl, having undergone three open heart surgeries since she was born with half a heart. She and her parents were recognized prior to the inaugural lacrosse game. February was national heart disease awareness month. Kenley is the daughter of Kurt and Melissa Wilson. Both are athletic trainers at ONU.

2015 Ohio agriculture in review - from OSU Extension Office

Posted by Fred Steiner on Thursday, March 3, 2016

By Ed Lentz – OSU Extension, Hancock County
Agriculture in 2015 has had many bumps and bruises. I have listed nine events that affected agriculture in our area last year.

Grain Prices. Grain prices continue to remain low for another year. It is been projected that US farm revenue may be at its lowest level since the early 2000’s. Input costs have started to drop but not at a level to match the loss of income. Farm land values have slowly begun to drop as a result of lower farm revenue.
