On April 25, 2013, Covington Catholic High School announced the establishment of the Elmer B. and Ruth C. Maschinot Cleves Scholarship to benefit the school’s tuition assistance program.

A 1944 graduate of Covington Catholic, Elmer Cleves excelled both in the classroom and in athletics. After graduation, he played professional baseball in the Canadian League as a catcher and went on to manage minor league teams in the U.S. After leaving baseball, Mr. Cleves worked in chemical engineering ultimately starting his own company, Interlube Corporation, in 1969. Interlube is an international distributor and manufacturer of industrial specialty lubricants and cleaners.

The scholarship is named after Mr. Cleves and his wife of fifty-five years, Ruth Maschinot Cleves. Mr. Cleves also established a scholarship at Notre Dame Academy in Park Hills two years ago at the passing of his wife, a Notre Dame Academy graduate.

Pictured is Elmer Cleves (second from right) with Sue Finke, Covington Catholic Advancement Director; Mr. Cleves’ daughter, Cindy Cleves; and Principal Bob Rowe.

CovCath sophomore Hussey wins state tennis title

Written by Richard Skinner

May 18, 2013 | cincinnati.com

LEXINGTON — Austin Hussey has long wanted to have bragging rights in his house over his mother, Kara

(Molony) Hussey, who is one of the most successful women’s players in Greater Cincinnati history, and after

Saturday he may have earned those rights.

Hussey, a sophomore at Covington Catholic, accomplished something his mother fell just short of doing by winning

the Kentucky High School Athletic Association state singles title with a 6-4, 7-5 win over St. Xavier sophomore

Brandon Lancaster at the Boone/Downing Tennis Complex at the University of Kentucky.

Both players battled severe cramping issues late in the second set, and with Lancaster having rallied from 4-0 down

in the second set to tie it at 5-5 it appeared as if Hussey may not be able to continue after he crumpled to the court in

pain after trying to put away an overhand.

Hussey, the No. 3 seed, hobbled back to his feet, then caught a bit of a second wind to break Lancaster’s serve and

then hold serve for the win.

“At 5-2 (in the second set) I started cramping really bad and he was already cramping so I tried to hide it,” said

Hussey. “It got to a point where I had to call the trainer. I was just trying to do anything at that point to win the

match.”

CovCath coach Al Hertsenberg admitted he was worried Hussey might not be able to finish the match.

“Two points away up 5-2 I really thought Brandon was fading, but then Austin faded quickly,” said Hertsenberg.

“He wanted to finish that game, but then got the trainer and at that point I really was worried if he cramped so much

there’s only a five-minute recovery period.

“I’ve coached long enough that I know if you get these kids back out there they’ll get a second wind, because the

body will adjust. I just didn’t know if he’ll run out of time. That’s a gut check. He found a way to win that.”

Hussey, who had earlier on Saturday upset No. 1 seed and defending state champion Sean Donohue of St. Xavier,

6-3, 6-4, in the semifinals, had full control of the championship match up to the point he started to cramp.

“Austin’s very difficult to scout, because he has so many weapons,” said Hertsenberg. “He can make an adjustment

five times in each game.”

Hussey had lost to Davenport, a senior, in last year’s quarterfinal round 6-3, 6-1, and it was a pep talk from his

mother after the semifinal win that got him mentally prepared for the championship match.

“It was big to play Donohue and pull it out, but me and my mom talked about that in the car and she kept telling me I

had to finish it,” said Hussey. “Now that I did I’m going to tease her about it a lot that I won a state singles (title).

She got me to this point and I’m so thankful to her getting me this far.”

Kara was singles runner-up in 1995 while playing at Notre Dame Academy, although she later won a doubles title

with her sister Lyndsey in 1997.

“He has always wanted bragging rights so now I guess he gets them,” said Kara, who is a former Women’s Tennis

Association Pro Tour ranked player, has 11 Cincinnati Metrobe politan Titles and is in the Cincinnati Tennis Hall of

Fame.

 

Jim Roebker, Class of 2010, won back to back state titles in 2009 and 2010.

Beechwood battled back from a seven-run deficit by scoring six times in the top of the sixth, but Covington Catholic held on for a 9-8 win in Wednesday’s District 35 final at CovCath.

Junior right fielder Grant Schreiver ignited the Colonels’ offense with a two-run homer in the bottom of the first, tying the score.

Junior third baseman Ben Heppler plated three runs for CovCath, singling in two in the second and grounding out for another RBI in the fourth.

Senior designated hitter Nate Kunkel and junior catcher Nick Pope added two RBI each for the Colonels.

Kunkel belted a run-scoring base hit in the second inning and grounded out for an RBI in the fourth, and Pope laid down two suicide squeezes – one in the third and the other in the fifth.

The Tigers scored six runs in the top of the sixth to cut the lead to one, and they stranded the tying run at third in that frame.

Heppler came in to record the save, pitching out of the sixth and allowing just a single in the seventh before picking the runner off.
