By Tom Millhouse
MINSTER - A family grieving the recent loss of their son found solace in an unexpected source - more than 100 letters written by college students hundreds of miles away.
Jim and Kathy Brackman, whose 18-year-old son, Austin, was struck by a car and killed Nov. 29 while walking along Schmitmeyer-Baker Road, east of Minster, said the letters from students at the University of South Carolina are comforting. [More]

CELINA - Bruno may not do tricks or anything heroic, but he managed to fetch this year's title of Mercer County's Top Dog for getting lost and found.
"He proves getting your dog a license works," explained county auditor Randy Grapner, whose office presents the awards each year.
ST. MARYS - After struggling with shooting in the first half, St. Marys caught fire late in the third quarter and remained hot in the fourth quarter to rally from six points down at the half to beat New Knoxville 51-41 in a battle of Auglaize County neighbors Friday night at Murotech Court.
NEW BREMEN - A 16-point second-quarter lead slowly slipped away from the New Bremen Cardinals Friday night as the visiting Fort Loramie Redskins rallied for a 66-61 victory.
MARIA STEIN - Teams can't always rely on scoring a high number every time they take the basketball court.
When you can get after it defensively like Marion Local, though, sometimes that doesn't matter.
