The reading incentive program takes place during the second quarter of school.
Fourth grade teacher Deone Rieman, reading teacher, describes it this way:
Students have an opportunity to go see a men's ONU basketball game free and receive a free t-shirt if they earned the incentive. Students also had an opportunity to have the basketball team sign their shirts after the game.
Senior Kelsey Commager (Maumee) and sophomore Maddy Reed (Lucasville/Piketon) had phenomenal day's on the track and in the field as the No. 15-ranked Ohio Northern women's track and field team finished third at the All-Ohio Championships in Westerville on Saturday afternoon.
The Polar Bears improve to 44-8 overall and finished third of 17 teams.
Commager led the way for the Polar Bears as she won both the long jump and the triple jump for the third time in four meets.
The senior won the long jump with a leap of 18' 1.00" and was victorious in the triple jump with a new school record jump of 38' 1.25".
Commager broke her own previous mark she set in 2016.
Junior Amy Bullimore (Morrow/Little Miami) posted her fourth consecutive double-double to help the No. 5-ranked Ohio Northern women's basketball team to an 89-59 victory over John Carroll Saturday afternoon at the ONU Sports Center.
The Polar Bears remain perfect on the year and improve to 23-0 overall and 16-0 in the Ohio Athletic Conference standings, while the Blue Streaks fall to 6-17, 4-12.
Bullimore posted a team-high 20 points, and a game-high 10 rebounds and two blocks.
