COLUMBUS, Kan. – Columbus High School junior Gabe Martin has been named the southeast Kansas All-Area Offensive Player of the Year by “Sports in Kansas.”
“It means a lot to me. It’s really nice to see that hard work pays off,” Martin says of the honor, “I have to give credit to our offensive linemen. They stayed working hard through the entire year and never let up. They are just as deserving of this award as I am. Winning this award definitely fuels me even more for my senior year. It’s an honor, but we have more work to do as a team. I’m going to do whatever it takes to make a push in the playoffs my senior year and put the team in the best position possible.”

Saying farewell: Flohr prepares to leave public office
In the 2012 primary election, Republican voters chose Rick Flohr over Tony London by a 58% to 42% margin as a Bartholomew County commissioner.
But while celebrating his victory eight years ago, Flohr predicted voters had not seen the last of London.
Eight years later, he was proven right. London defeated two primary opponents in June, and ran unopposed last month to succeed Flohr. On Jan. 1, he will become the new county commissioner representing District 3 that includes Jackson, Wayne, Ohio, Sandcreek and Rockcreek townships.
So what advice would the outgoing commissioner give London as he becomes one of the chief executives of Bartholomew County government?
