BGSU men’s basketball shoots past Cleveland State for home-opening win

BOWLING GREEN — In front of a home crowd for the first time this season, the Bowling Green State University men’s basketball team defeated Cleveland State 95-79 while shooting 60 percent from the floor. That efficiency was especially on display at the 3-point line, where Bowling Green finished 14-for-28. Three different players had two or more makes from deep. Junior guard Josiah Shackelford did most of the damage, scoring 25 points on 6-for-9 shooting from beyond the arc. “A majority of our threes came in pretty good, created situations,” BGSU coach Todd Simon said. “That’s how you get 19 assists on 33 shots. For us, at one point in the huddle, we were like, ‘We’re in the bonus, let’s really take it inside.’ At that point, we were shooting like 55 [percent] from three, and I was like, ‘You might want to still keep shooting those.’ But, we have tremendous shooters. This is what they do in practice.” After an early exchange, Bowling Green gained a lead with 17:21 left in the first half and never looked back. Cleveland State (1-2) also shot efficiently, finishing at 60.8 percent. Simon said allowing that number didn’t meet the team’s defensive standard. BGSU

Editorial: Follow the lead of Chief Braun

There’s no better illustration of dysfunctional Toledo city government than the dueling views on the Toledo Police Department’s Flock cameras held by council and the police department. Six councilmen, despite a city charter that wisely prohibits them from operational authority over city safety forces, have been pushing a resolution for weeks, urging the Kapszukiewicz administration to terminate the TPD contract with Flock. Read more editorials New TPD Chief Kevin Braun, one week into his new job, told Blade reporter Kelly Kaczala the need to embrace new technology is a primary focus for his leadership because there are going to be fewer officers. Chief Braun says that’s a universal police department problem. In Toledo, thanks to the failure of the four-year, 0.25-percent income tax increase for neighborhood safety, the city is looking at significant layoffs and will not be able to fund a new police class. There’s no doubt that irresponsible rhetoric from Toledo City Council on “mass surveillance” created a climate of distrust that contributed to the levy’s failure with voters. With big police and fire layoffs inevitable and understaffing likely for years because of both the elimination of a class of new recruits and a $50 million structural deficit

Maumee schools continues deliberations on budget cuts

Maumee schools has until late January to figure out a new financial plan after its proposed tax levy was voted down, the district announced. “I want our staff, families, and community to understand that the reduction we are preparing to recommend will be significant. They will impact staffing, programs, and services across our district,” Maumee Superintendent Steven Lee said during a board of education work session Monday. “These are not minor adjustments or efficiencies that can be made without consequences,” he continued. “They represent difficult decisions that will change aspects of the educational experience we are currently able to offer our students.” Since the levy was rejected by voters on Election Day by a vote of 3,823 to 3,570, Mr. Lee said he has been in talks with district treasurer Paul Brotzki and assistant superintendent Scott Perrotte, in addition to all school principals and supervisors, to try to clarify what potential cuts will be and what the implications of those cuts would be. The levy would have instituted a 1.25 percent earned-income tax to help fund the district’s operating costs. The levy was expected to bring in $5.8 million annually. The district had been under fiscal watch with the state
