BLUFFTON - Undefeated Columbus Grove raced to a big early lead and eliminated Ada 59-35 in the Div. IV boys sectional basketball finals at Bluffton University Friday night.

The previous weekend, Ada gave Grove all it could handle in the regular season finale before CG took over with a 20-7 closing run to win 56-46.

In the rematch seven days later, Grove jumped ahead 19-6 after one quarter and was never seriously threatened.

Across the United States, flu activity is high. And it's expected to continue for weeks.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently reported that flu activity remains high in the U.S. The agency estimated that there had so far been at least 26 million flu illnesses, resulting in 250,000 hospitalizations and 14,000 deaths, this season.

Although the number of hospitalizations was comparable to this point in the season in previous years, the rates among children and young adults were higher.

“Who sees a psychiatrist anyway?” This is a common question I have been asked by many different people outside of my office. Many times, this question is brought up to me in social situations where the topic of mental health arises in passing. I often forget that psychiatry has a stigma as every day I encounter people from all walks of life who are seeking professional help for an array of different issues.
