SEBRING –– After losing only one game during the regular season, Publix proved that wasn't a fluke, as its offense pounded out 10 hits and Tommy Bertoniere and Seth Abeln combined on a three-hitter to lead Publix to 12-2 win over Goin' Postal in Sunday's Dixie Boys (ages 13-14) city tournament championship game. Publix breezed through the double-elimination tournament to cap a remarkable turnaround from last year. "Winning this championship means quite a bit," said Publix coach Shon Abeln. "We struggled last year with a young team, but the experience they got from playing was just what they needed.

SEBRING — A former employee of Goin' Postal, located at 3609 Sebring Parkway, was sentenced last Thursday to three years in prison for committing fraudulent returns at the shipping store. Brenda Sue Espinoza, 42, of 4136 El Rado Ave., obtained more than $4,000 from the store by pocketing money obtained from customer shipments and fraudulently entering return transactions for merchandise. According to Highlands County Sheriff's Office arrest reports, the business's owner reported 159 fraudulent returns occurring at his business from April 25, 2006 to Sept. 20, 2006. Of the 159 fraudulent returns, 119 involved instances where Espinoza pocketed customer shipment money rather than putting it into the business's point of sale system, fraudulently listing the packages as returned. ...more
