Another Rauh Who Migrated to Alva, Oklahoma
Our museum has what might be a rather unexpected set of church records from Zion Lutheran Church in Alva, Oklahoma. We have them partly because they contain so many entries of people who had their start in Perry County before migrating to Alva.

I will tell another Alva, Oklahoma story today. We begin with the groom.

South Carolina tops SEMO after getting boost from Kory Mincy
Kory Mincy scored 10 consecutive points in the second half to help lift South Carolina to a 78-68 victory over visiting Southeast Missouri State on Sunday in Columbia, S.C. The Gamecocks led 33-32 at halftime and had traded baskets with SEMO in the first minute of the second half before Mincy shifted the game with his run. The George Mason transfer hit a layup, drilled a pair of 3-point shots and made another layup to put the Gamecocks up 46-34 with 14:56 to play. The Redhawks trimmed the lead to four on a 3-pointer from Fontaine Williams Jr. with 6:37 remaining but got no closer. South Carolina (2-0) leaned on Mincy, who finished with 19 points overall, 15 after halftime. He shot 6-for-11 from the field and added four rebounds and three steals in 33 minutes. The Gamecocks also benefitted from a big game by Argentine forward Juan Fernandez, who had 18 points and led the team with seven rebounds and four blocks. The 6-11 big transferred from Spain's professional Liga ACB. Jakub Necas notched 12 points and six rebounds, and Marcus Johnson added 10 points for the Gamecocks. South Carolina outrebounded SEMO 40-24 and made 30 of 40 free
