Freshmen react to Ben S tein’s “Chr istmas Con fess ions”

AboveVoice from

Sometimes it takes our students to remind us what we are here for. For us, it is giving current students and fu-ture generations the opportunity of a faith based quality education. When Mrs. Walters told us about the amaz-ing reactions her freshmen had to Ben Stein’s “Christmas Confession” and that “we should put this in the Voice” our first thought was, as always “we’re not sure if there is room”. After reading her students’ comments we had an epipha-ny and realized there is always room. When you read their comments in the lower left article, you will understand. Mary and Joseph found room, we need to make room for what really matters, too. We hope you have a safe, blessed Merry Christmas and a wonder-ful New Year.

The Holy Family Formation Team (HFFT), a group of 25 volunteers who have spent numerous hours to unite Fremont Catholic schools, has exciting news! Starting with the 2010-2011 school year, the three area Parishes and SJCC will join to create one unified Catholic School System: Pre-K thru 3rd grade at the existing Sacred Heart build-ing, grades 4-8 at the existing St. Joseph El-ementary School building and grades 9-12 at SJCC. We will keep you informed as this process unfolds. Please keep this endeavor in your prayers, as everyone works tire-lessly to create a bigger and better unified school system. For more information check our website at www.fremonthfft.com, face book page fremonthfft, or e-mail us at [email protected].

Ben Stein, author, actor, and game show host recently commented on CBS Sunday Morning about his “Christmas Confessions”. He told about his Jewish background and how the use of the word “Christmas” does not of-fend him. He stated that, in the U.S., “we tend to worship actors instead of God.” Mrs. Walters’ Freshmen Religion Classes at SJCC read and reacted to his commentary. Many students consistently commented that “we value and worship celebrities more than God.” Additionally, that “we tell God to stay out of our lives in public schools and within our public sector; therefore, God’s loving presence is not in these areas anymore.” E.J. Wiza adds, “People will do anything to see these famous people, but should be doing whatever they can to seek God, to seek the truth about Him.” Alex Chlosta writes, “ We believe the crazy things on television, but when it comes to the Bible, we don’t believe, and we question every word.” Kristin Sessler states, “It gave me great insight on how people treat God.” Leah Darr writes, “I have God and His word to rely on. I pity anyone who thinks that I have the short end of the stick.” After reading Ben Stein’s “Christmas Confessions” Veronica Calvillo summarizes, “In my opinion, ev-erything [Stein] writes is only the truth!”

Greetings,

I hope all of you had a wonderful Thanks-

giving and were able to spend time with family and

friends. St. Joseph Central Catholic has so much

to be grateful for. I truly want to thank all of you

for your continued support. SJCC wouldn’t be

the place that it is if it weren’t for our generous

benefactors. You are all in our prayers.

At this time I need to send out some

congratulations. Our football team had a great

year. We were MAL champs and qualified for

the state playoffs. Freshman, Connor Dudley

qualified for the State golf championships and finished 9th.

Congratulations also go to Bob Gabel and Tom Hoffert who are this year’s

Heritage Award recipients.

If you drive by the school, you can see that we replaced the old

windows on the second floor of the front of the building. A special thanks

to all who helped make this happen. What a difference they make both

in looks and efficiency. Finally, and most importantly, I want to wish all of

you a “MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A BLESSED NEW YEAR”.

GO STREAKS!

Todd Drusback ‘90, head football coach and teacher at SJCC, tries to teach his players and students “to get out of their comfort zones, and go for it!” He states that, “this is easier said than done. If kids know that God is always with them no matter what, then it is my hope that they will develop the faith in themselves to take those risks and make something happen in their lives. The more they do so, the more trust they will develop in their own abilities and decisions.” Drusback’s phi-losophy reflects SJCC’s motto: St. Joseph Central Catholic exists to educate the mind, nourish the soul, train the body, inspire the heart, and in so doing, build the kingdom of God. Coach Drusback has been very successful in the last three months winning nine out of ten regular season games, winning a share of the MAL title, making the State playoffs and winning Coach-of-the-Year honors. In November, during his busy football

season, Todd and his wife Amy (Vassar ‘95) and their two daughters, Paige and Ellie, welcomed a new addition to their family; son, Jackson Cooper Thomas Drusback!

Following a memorable overtime win against the State-ranked Hopewell-Loudon Chieftans, SJCC faced their pe-rennial rival, the Tiffin Calvert Senecas. Two quick turnovers put the Streaks down 14-0. At halftime the team went into the locker room down 28-0 where Coach Drusback told them, “We not only need to trust ourselves and our abilities but also trust the abilities of your teammates as well.” SJCC’s dreams of a perfect season ended with a loss of 52-14. The players did not hang their heads in despair and knew they could bounce back, using this game as a motivator to carry out their goals of winning the league title. After the game, Coach Drusback told his team, “We all know setbacks will happen. Having faith and truly believing that God is always there with us no matter what, can give us peace of mind in knowing he will never give us anything we cannot handle.” The whole team used these words to motivate themselves, ending the season with a 9-1 record and a State playoff game against the Leipsic Vikings (the Streaks lost the game 34-16). Coach Drusback was very happy that his team overcame adversities throughout the year and stayed united, motivated, and strong. Todd Drusback certainly lives the SJCC motto both on and off the field. He educates the mind of his students as a teacher and coach. He nour-ishes the soul and inspires the heart through his inspirational pre-game speeches and his participation in service to his community. Drusback and the football team worked at the SJCC Soup Stop throughout the summer months. Drusback also created “Parker’s Purpose,” a foundation that offers relief to families struggling with crisis. Drusback trains the body of his play-ers and students. He is a physical education teacher, and he disciplines his football players with tough two-a-days helping players gain confidence as well as physical strength. Despite his many commitments, Drusback is a devoted father and husband. In every way Todd Drusback truly builds the kingdom of God.

Mr. Bob Gabel

Since 1998 the SJCC Alumni and Friends Asso-ciation Heri-tage Award

has been presented to 32 individuals and two couples. These award winners have touched the lives of those around them through their dedication and in-volvement in the communities in which they live. This year’s recipients are no different. They have gone above and beyond a level of giving with their time and talents and have enriched many different types of people and organiza-tions. The 2010 recipients are Thomas Hoffert and Bob Gabel. These indi-viduals serve as role models to our St. Joseph Central Catholic Community and beyond. The ceremony will be held Saturday April 24 at 6:00 p.m., in the SJCC cafeteria , tickets will be available March 1. Thomas Hoffert is a 1957 grad-uate of St. Joseph High School. Tom and his wife, Joanne (Schell ‘58) have two children, Laura who lives in Cincinnati and John in Fremont. Hoffert retired from the army a Lt. Colonel with over 20 year of service. His awards and decorations include the Bronze Star and three Meritorious Service Medals along with numerous Foreign Service medals. He received a Bachelor of Sci-ence Degree from The Ohio State Uni-versity and a Master of Science degree from Hofstra University. He is also an honor graduate of the Army Command

He nar-rates the Civil War reenactment, gives guided tours of the museum, and can be found in full costume coordinating the Christmas dinner at Spiegel Grove. He plays the piano during the Hayes Home Candlelight Tour and at the Dil-lon House playing for teas, weddings, lunches, or dinners. Tom has volun-teered more hours at the Hayes Presi-dential Center than any other volunteer in the history of the Center. Tom narrates on the historic bus or trolley tours of Fremont and Sandusky County. He wrote the tours, which he has given to every Leadership Sandusky County class. He has written the historic tour about the Sandusky River from Fremont to the Bay. He has given talks to children about Indians, the Civil War, history of Fremont, Pres-ident Hayes and his family, Hayes and his religion, and Hayes on education. Tom is most proud of the pro-gram he and his son wrote and perform together entitled “Coping with Blind-ness”. The program educates people about how a blind person is able to man-age in their day-to-day life.

Senior, Amanda BerrymanFreshman, Connor Dudley

Junior, Zak Bowman

Footba l lThis football season the Crimson Streaks had three goals: to have a win-

ning season, to win the MAL championship, and to make the playoffs. The Streaks met these goals with strong resolve by beating both #2 ranked Hopewell-Louden and #5 ranked Carey along their way to winning their piece of the MAL championship.

Although the season would end in the first round of the playoffs to a strong Leipsic team, the Streaks had stacks of honors and memories from a great season.

Golf In coach Tom Dudley’s f irst year as head coach for the Streaks his starting l ine-up included

three sophomores and two freshmen. Despite their youth, the l ine-up proved to be successful. The team finished second in the MAL, and freshman Connor Dudley capped an extremely successful season with a ninth place finish in the state tournament!

SoccerThe Streaks soccer team finally got to experience playing on their new home field at the Naderer Sports

Complex. The team improved greatly from last year and actually was undefeated at their new field. Highlight-ing the season was a thri l l ing 4-3 upset versus Upper Sandusky. The team was lead by senior Captains Chris

Liebold and Sophia Cullen, with junior Captain Paul Wendt. Wendt led the team with 22 goals, and was named to the MSSL first team as a forward. Chris Liebold was named to the first team as a defender. With many key players returning next year, the Streaks should continue to improve.

Lad ie s Te nnis This years Ladies Tennis Team included only three seniors, Morgan Furlong, Mandy Berryman, and Benedicte

Bjerknes, but Coaches Liz Pietrykowski and Li l ly Walters were thri l led with the number of new players. Enthusiasm for the sport has grown. Although the team didn’t accumulate many wins, they improved greatly as the season progressed. Awards went

to Hannah Sani (Most Valuable), Morgan Furlong (Most Improved), and Benedicte Bjerknes (Spirit Award). Vol le yba l l

The Streaks opened their season with a new head coach, two seniors, and some very talented underclassmen. They finished the season with a 12-10 record, and the future looks bright for the young team. Freshman Kristin Sessler made the MAL 1st team and was also the team’s Most Valuable Player whi le junior All ison Streacker was awarded Honorable Mention.

Cross Country The cross country teams were led by Danielle Molyet and David Wasson. Wasson had a very successful season, qualifying for the Re-

gional competition. Molyet, the team’s MVP helped lead a young girls’ squad throughout the season. Many of the top runners on both teams wil l return next year creating a bright future for the cross country teams.

Seniors Mike Darr and Tom Auxter, members of St. Ann’s Troop 339, achieved the rank of Eagle Scout in Novem-ber. Their project was a joint effort that included the Sandusky County Park District and the City of Fremont. They placed mileage signs every half mile and at each road crossing along the North Coast Inland Trail between Clyde and Elmore. Darr and Auxter also designed trail etiquette signs and placed them at each major trail access point and installed stream name signs at each bridge crossing. An Eagle Court of Honor will be held January 3 at St. Ann Church, beginning with mass at 10:30 a.m. and a ceremo-ny at 1:00 p.m. at Bishop Hoffman Hall.

History teacher, Mr. Smith, has a very good way of making his lectures come alive in his students’ minds. In an un-forgettable lecture about local history, Mr. Smith discussed a time capsule that he helped bury around 1970 in the lawn along Clover Street. This sparked the curiosity of a few students and they decided to try and dig up history. This past summer, these students dug several times and researched yearbooks to find clues, but have been unsuccessful. Alumni, we need your help to find the time capsule. If you helped bury the time capsule, or you remember this event, we would like you to tell us your memories. Please e-mail Sue Berryman at [email protected], and give her any clues to this mystery.

Unsung ChampionsUnsung ChampionsBy: John Fatica The St. Joseph community was very much caught up in the success of the football team and other fall sports this year. However, coinciding with the fall sports season, another group was having immense success. This group is the Fremont Area Ohio Interscholastic Horsemanship Association (OIHA) team. This association consists of students from SJCC, Fremont Ross, Gibsonburg, Lakota and Clyde. The two members of the team from SJCC are seniors Jessica Long and Zoey McQuis-tion. The team competed in three regular competition shows throughout September. The Fremont OIHA team placed first in their division in all three shows. Each show included several different riding styles, each unique from one another. The Fre-mont team placed first in all three shows, which allowed them to advance to State competition. In the championship show, they competed against two other teams. After the points were totaled, the team discovered they had tied with Napoleon, making them co-champions (there was no tie-breaker rule). The team was coached by Bill Wallace. Long and McQuistion are extremely grateful for all that he has done for them. Long said, “He made my senior year one to remember.” McQuistion adds, “I was proud of my horse’s performance. He kept his cool and proved he is a champion!” The team actually competed against each other during the regular show season; however, they united their equestrian talents to accomplish their State Championship goal. This united effort exemplifies the team motto: “Unique riders. Different disciplines. All unit-ed as one team.”
