In spite of having a cancerous tumor removed from his hip and having his leg shortened due to reconstruction, Celina cross country coach Dan Otten has returned this season. A 5K run/walk will be held on Oct. 1 at the Mercer County Fairgrounds to help defray costs of Otten's surgery and rehabilitation.
