Lady Hornet hoops season ends in Area Page 13A

Grubbs earns 2nd gold medal Lady Hornet also named top wrestler at state tournament BY MARK K. CAMPBELL Another state tournament. Another gold medal. Azle’s Jesse Grubbs not only repeated as a state wrestling champion but won the elite MOW – Most Outstanding Wrestling – title, too. At Garland ISD’s Culwell Center Feb. 14-15, Grubbs began a quest for something that had never been achieved in AISD’s athletic history: back-to-back state gold medals. Her state journey started with an opening clash against Alex Arevalo from San Antonio Brooks Academy. Grubbs (35-1) pinned her foe at the 1:03 mark. Next came Huntsville’s Christian Walker (26-10). Grubbs got another pin, this time at the 2:58 mark. A third match awaited on Valentine’s Day in the semifi nals; the winner would move on to the gold medal round. Grubbs faced Amarillo’s Alexis Tarango (40-4). It was a tussle. But Grubbs earned a 3-0 victory and the slot at the top of the bracket.

The Lady Hornet didn’t wrestle again until the evening of Saturday, Feb. 15. Her opponent was familiar, Clarc Walker of Frisco Heritage. Grubbs’ only 2014 loss came to Walker very early in the season. In two latter rematches, Grubbs had won both – including their last meeting in the Region 2 finals. This fourth fi ght was for all the marbles. A veteran, Grubbs wrestled steadily and claimed a 5-1 victory and the gold medal. Coaches Chris and Monica Allen leapt from their chairs near the mat then hugged Grubbs. Soon she was surrounded by fans and teammates amid the cheers of thousands in attendance. Chris Allen said, “Her path to get this one was tough; she beat the second place, third place, and fourth place in her weight class to win it.” The gold medal was amazing, but the cherry on top was yet to come. After the tourney, Grubbs was

Lady Hornet Jesse Grubbs just won her second consecutive state wrestling championship in Garland. Plus, the senior was awarded the MOW: Most Outstanding Wrestler at the annual gathering of the best in Texas. MORE PHOTOS ON PAGES 12A AND 15A! Photo by Mark K. Campbell picked as the best female wrestler at the state meet, the MOW. Allen said that was a memorable event. “Even being a two-time state champion, Jesse had never earned a MOW

award. It has always been a goal of hers and what could be more fi tting for her to earn one at the last tournament of her UIL career,” he said. Allen added that the MOW is seldom given to a competitor in the upper

Bond package to cost taxpayers less than expected

weight classes. It capped a career the likes of which had never been seen by an Azle athlete. “I am proud to know her as the fi rst two-time state champion of Azle wrestling,” he said.

Not the Driveway

Interest rate lowered BY CARLA NOAH STUTSMAN The $20 million bond package presented by the Board of Trustees for the Azle Independent School District at the November General Election passed by a wide margin, but it turns out the projected tax increase represented by the board were not exactly correct. In fact, taxpayers will pay substantially less than the amounts projected prior to the election. The board points to the leadership of Superintendent Dr. Ray Lea and fi nancial management of Monica Miller, coupled with some sound, conservative fi scal policies and smart bond counselors as reasons for the cost of the bond package being remarkably lower than originally anticipated. Prior to the election, district offi cials projected the average homeowner could expect the increase to the tax rate to cost an additional $2.11 per month. Following the successful sale of the bonds to investors Thursday, Feb. 13, that same family will actually pay only $1.41 more each month. AISD Finance Director Monica Miller said she believes it was the perfect time to sell the bonds. Joshua McLaughlin of BOSC was at Monday night’s meeting of the board to present a summary of the bond sale, and every aspect of his report

glowed. According to McLaughlin’s summary, the district had projected net total principal and interest payments for the bond to be $37,665,000. Upon the sale of the bonds at a lower interest rate, those principal and interest payments are now calculated to be $35,715,361 – a savings of $1.49 million over the life of the bonds. The savings are due to a lower interest rate obtained at the time of the sale, McLaughlin said. BOSC and the district had anticipated a rate of 5.00 percent; however, due to recent triple A ratings from Standard and Poor as well as Fitch, the district was able to sell the bond package at a true interest cost of 4.08 percent. The savings also translate to a lesser tax increase to the district’s Interest and Sinking (I & S) tax rate of 1.25 cents ($0.0125). The district had anticipated to increase that rate by 1.87 cents ($0.0187). The board also saw a presentation by Sloan Harris of VLK Architects about plans for the Career and Technology Center and Competition Gymnasium the bond package will fund. That project is now slated to be complete by the time school starts in August 2015.

Residents of a home in the 7800 block of Eastland Avenue in the Ella Young Addition near Lake Worth were startled by a loud crash when what appeared to be a brand new Ford Mustang plowed through their yard onto the front porch and hit the home Monday afternoon, Feb. 17. Although the accident report was not yet available at press time, an Azle News reporter witnessed Tarrant County Sheriff’s deputies take the female driver into custody after she failed a field sobriety test.

Filing continues, but most seats unopposed so far BY CARLA NOAH STUTSMAN Just one individual stepped forward to run for offi ce in the greater metropolitan Azle area this week. That area includes the cities of Azle and Pelican Bay, the town of Lakeside, and the Azle Independent School District. City of Azle It’s still all three incumbents defending their seats in Azle. Dr. William Chambers in Place 1, David McClure in Place 2 and Rouel Rothenberger in Place 5 each fi led to run early in the fi ling period and so far, none faces a challenger.

City Secretary Norma Zenk said on unchallenged, as well, according to Tuesday, Feb. 18, the city could save Town Secretary Debra McLemore.

Place 2 is currently occupied by Tom Petty, who, as mayor pro tem, has been performing any duties required of the mayor. The elected Mayor of Pelican Bay, Clifford Tynes, died unexpectedly in early December 2013. City Secretary Teri Anthony estimated election costs to be several thousand dollars in that city. Early voting

Early voting dates, times and locations are not yet set in stone. While the dates will likely be April 29 through May 6, specifi c times and locations are still being confirmed.

AHS quartet honored by Rotary by mArk k. CAmpbell Four exceptional Azle High School scholars were lauded as February Rotary Students of the Month. Natalie Roberts, Emily Bryan, Bruce Mikel, and Joseph Holt were recognized at the club’s Feb. 13 meeting. Roberts is all about filmmaking, theater, and art – a passion she will pursue at the University of Texas at Austin. There, she will take part in the school of Radio, Television, and Film. She recently received Honorable Mention for her part in the play The Insanity of Mary Girard. While at AHS, Roberts has participated on stage or behind it in every production, including Grease and The Lottery. She is a Drama Club member.

Her stage skills also serve her well when she works at Hangman’s House of Horrors. Roberts has been well involved in band, earlier in her high school career. An artist, Roberts said she has sold paintings to people throughout the Metroplex. Bryan has a passion for baking and cooking, she said. She also has a history of singing with the Texas Girls’ Choir and traveled internationally with the group. Bryan is in charge of “abstract operations” for the AHS robotics team where she is a vice-president. She is a member of the National Honor Society and in the top 10 percent of her graduating class. Bryan is also the secretary for

the Family, Career and Community Leaders of America, a group she has been part of since her sophomore year. She said she plans on majoring in early childhood education. Mikel, in the top 10 percent at AHS, plans on attending the University of Texas at Arlington and majoring in music. Involved in band, Mikel received outstanding soloist and ensemble honors as a trumpeter. He is not only a section leader for the AHS band and a participant in the jazz band, but is the president of the choir. Mikel also plays with the Youth Orchestra of Greater Fort Worth. As part of the Marching Green Pride, Mikel has helped

the band receive a slew of UIL honors in the past few years. Mikel said he enjoys cooking and plays disc golf at Azle’s Ash Creek Park course. Holt is a writer. He plans on attending a college where he can pursue his creative writing passion while achieving an English degree to become a professor. He said he likely will attend the University of North Texas. Holt has had poetry published and also writes short stories. He works the sound board for AHS theater productions, something that requires detailed attention with multiple actors involved, he said. Holt also takes several Advanced Placement classes and has added college courses as a

Senior Spotlight We have had a busy week here at the center – we all had our running shoes on to keep up. I fixed stew and cornbread Feb. 10 for our No SCS meal day. We had our birthday and anniversary party Wednesday with cake and ice cream, chickenfoot on Thursday afternoon, and we had our Valentine’s Day party on Friday. Lonnie Holt and Joyce Glover were crowned King and Queen. Feb. 17 was our 25th anniversary for the Senior Center. Where did the time go?! I guess it doesn’t seem so long ago as I’ve never looked on this as work or a job. I was lucky enough to fall into it and I love it and the participants dearly. I can’t believe I get paid for having so much fun. We’ll have our anniversary Open House Health Fair in May during “Older American’s Month.” The weather is a bit more predictable then. Friday, Feb. 21 is Produce Day. Our business meeting will be during lunch; it only takes a few minutes reading January reports. Our next No SCS meal day is Monday, Feb. 24. We’ll have our medicine re-

view program again. Delores Little from the agency will be out to review seniors’ medications. Just gather up everything you take – prescriptions and over the counter – and bring everything in and let her check them out for you – just so you’ll be sure nothing is mixing with something else. If she gets four signed up, their name goes into a pot for a chance at a $25 gift certificate. She will be here on Food Bank Day, Friday March 7.

Everyone is glad for the change of weather. It sure beats ice and cold. Stop in and check us out; there’s bound to be something here you’d like. We have lots of food and fellowship here Monday through Friday each week. We have two very good exercise classes in the Emanuel Building. Monday and Wednesday classes start a 9:30 a.m. Hope and Johnni Band plays for our monthly birthday and anniversary parties each month. They are very good.

ATTENTION REpUbLICAN VOTERs! Do not be fooled by all talk and no experience. We cannot afford on-the-job-training for County Judge. How did that work for us in the White House? As a life-long resident of Parker County, I feel compelled to write and let the people of Parker County know just how important the current race for the County Judge is to our county’s future and why Judge Mark Riley is the only candidate we can trust to lead the county for the next 4 years. As taxpayers and law-abiding citizens, we deserve qualified, proven performance from the CEO of our county. The job of County Judge is the highest elected position in county government. It is not an honorary title to be used later as resume padding for some other perceived “higher office.” During my lifetime, I have witnessed the administrations of 7 different Parker County Judges. And Mark Riley is quite possibly the most conservative county CEO that I have ever known. The position of County Judge is an around-the-clock, 24 hour-a-day, 7 daysa-week, full-time commitment to our county and its people. It is not a parttime job for a private sector land developer with possible conflicts of interest adverse to those of the citizen he seeks to govern. As taxpayers and lawabiding citizens, we expect and deserve top performance from the CEO of our county. It is not simply an honorary title or a position to use later as resume padding. As I have observed Mark over the last 16 years, it is an around-the-clock, 24 hour-a-day, 7 days-a-week, labor-of-love commitment to a county and its people. Mark also has a staunch commitment for law enforcement. Perhaps just as important as meeting the usual need of your citizens, Mark Riley has been out-front collaboration with state and regional transportation authorities in order to solve traffic and road problems. Mark’s success in the transportation arena did not come overnight. Rather, it required years of onthe-job, pull-up-your-sleeves, hard-work and experience to obtain the trust necessary to earn a position of authority on the Regional Transportation Board as well as other important commission that impact the future of Parker County. We cannot afford to lose such a powerful seat at the regional transportation table at this time in our county’s history. We cannot afford to waste time while a newcomer cuts its teeth on issues that need immediate attention. We cannot risk allowing Mark’s opponent, a newcomer, to use the highest position in our county’s government for personal gain. Well, for me and my family, Parker County is our home. It is where we go to church and where we send our children and grandchildren to school. “We are proud to stand up and support Judge Mark Riley because he, too, is committed to standing up for Parker County - For today and for tomorrow, for the long haul.”

Sonja Dildy, Liz Hard, Sara Langston and Gill Boatman celebrated the opening of Azle Deer Cove in January and can’t wait to help you throw your event.

www.TheDeerCove.com slangston165@gmail.com

Big or small, Azle Deer Cove can host them all Two new venues with a view can handle events of up to 300 people There’s a new place in the area if you’re looking to hold a memorable party. Azle Deer Cove, located at 101 South Pearson Lane across from Allsup’s, offers two distinctive venues. Owner Sara Langston oversees a pair of options at Deer Cove. The smaller venue – Casita – can handle parties of 65-75. The larger venue is Cedar Hall. While still under construction, it will eventually be capable of entertaining 75 to 300 people. “It has a spectacular view of the wooded land – perfect for outdoor weddings and parties,” Sara said. The Casita is fully decorated for a “stress-free party,” Sara said. “All you have to do is show up.” The facility has a full working kitchen. “You can have it catered or bring in your own private personal chef,” the owner said. Sara knows Azle. She recently retired

after teaching at Azle Junior High School for 30 years. “I loved the students in Azle,” she said. “We have a great group of kids.” About this brand new business, Sara said, “This is the perfect business for me because I like people and am passionate about decorating, landscaping, and parties. “I’m also a ‘fire freak’!” Both venues have outdoor fire pits. Clearly, Azle Deer Cove, which had its ribbon cutting Jan. 21, offers a unique party experience. Sara is offering a bargain to get to know her new business – up to half off – and she takes special appointments 7 days a week. Take a look at her web site at www. TheDeerCove.com and “Like” the venue on Facebook. And call 817-501-7089 to secure your date for a one-of-a-kind event at a facility that will meet and exceed your expectations.

It helps to be a little psycho around here

here’s a new book out detailing the positive aspects of being a psychopath. It also contains a master list of the professions where you’re likely to run into a psycho and those least likely. Not surprisingly, journalist was No. 6 on the Top Psycho Job List. This was one of those well, duh announcements because you have to be crazy to work at a newspaper these days. Technology has changed every facet of the world, of course, and journalism is certainly no different. In the old days, a reporter took notes, did a brief interview, snapped a couple of photos with a film camera, then sent the story on its merry way.

It just requires some substantial jug- you’re likely to find psychopaths is gling and “focus” – one of the traits Chief Executive Officer. The rest: 2. lawyer; 3. radio/TV of a psychopath, according to The

media; 4. salesperson; 5. surgeon; 6. journalist; 7. cop; 8. clergy; 9. chef; 10. civil servant. The least likely place you’ll find a psycho: 1. “care aide”; 2. nurse; 3. therapist; 4. craftsperson; 5. beautician/stylist; 6. charity worker; 7. teacher; 8. creative artist; 9. doctor; 10. accountant. Usually, when you hear the word psychopath, you think killer on a CBS weekly CSI show. But now it’s something you might put on a resume: “I’m a go-getter seeking a lifelong career and I feel my psychopathic tendencies will help move your company to even greater heights! I’d murder it!” You probably want a lawyer to exude “persuasiveness” before a jury and you’d likely prefer your surgeon

to slice your duodenum with a “lack of emotion.” And who hasn’t suffered a salesperson’s “superficial charm.” I still grumble about that extended warranty I bought on a truck back in 2004 because that guy was so danged charming! On the flip side, you wouldn’t want your “care aide” to “lack empathy.” Or your accountant to be “independent” when filing your taxes. So we journalists are a bit psycho. It’s a job requirement. When we have another opening here at the News, if you’re interested, you might note that your “egocentricity” is a big part of your appeal. You just could be crazy enough to work here. Mark K. Campbell is the News editor and has always thought chefs were suspicious sorts.

Tips to avoid being audited

n 2013, the Internal Revenue Service audited one out of every 104 tax returns. If you made more than $1 million, your chances of being audited was 10.85 percent. Those with total income under $200,000 had just a 0.88 percent chance of an audit. According to certified financial planner Rick Rodgers of Rodgers & Associates, while some audits are random, others are selected for a variety of reasons.

Here are four of them: 1. Exceptionally large itemized deductions. If you take deductions that exceed the “statistical norm” for specific state or areas, it’s a red flag to the IRS. 2. Self-employment income. The IRS believes this is the primary source of unreported income. Self-employed taxpayers are audited far more often than those who receive a traditional W-2 form. 3. Large business expenses. Big deductions for business meals, trav-

el, and entertainment catch the IRS’ eye. Also, claiming 100 percent of a vehicle for business use is “a huge red flag.” 4. Claiming a home office. The IRS often zeroes in on taxpayers who say they operate a business from their home. This deduction “greatly increases” the possibility of an audit. If the tax savings are minimal, it’s recommended to avoid this deduction entirely to avoid scrutiny.

John Paul Jones has tiny connection to Western history

here are consequence to actions, good or bad. I found a story in which a brief courtesy of one of our famous American heroes may have influenced great good. This was in addition to his heroic actions that made the history books. John Paul Jones is that person, but that was not his original last name. Born in the parish of Kirkbean, Scotland (yes, another Scot) on July 6, 1747, at age twelve he became a ship boy on a British merchant vessel sailing for Virginia. An older brother owned a business in Fredericksburg, so he visited him. However, he continued to go to sea. His abilities and steadfastness rewarded him with the command of a merchant ship by age 21. In 1773 mutinous sailors attacked him, and he killed one of them in self defense. His superior supported him. Court was not in session on a nearby British island, so he left, intending to return if needed for trial. Friends sug-

gested that he change his name, so he added the very common surname of Jones, and became anonymous in the colonies. When the colonies rebelled and commissioned a navy in December, 1775, Jones became a first lieutenant on a frigate, Alfred. Engaging the British, he captured merchant ships and destroyed others. Good at maneuvering, he escaped from ships faster than his own. Jealousy of other American commanders prevented promotion at first, but John Hancock and Robert Morris saw Jones's abilities. In June 1777 he was given a small ship, the Ranger. In it he sailed to the shores of England in hopes of burning a ship yard. He captured a British ship, the Drake on April 24, 1778 off the coast of England. The English called him a pirate. At first, politics continued to keep him from the command of a larger ship, so he appealed to the French allies of the Americans and obtained an old, slow ship called the Duras. He renamed it the Bonhomme Richard.

In a fight on September 23, 1779 helped by French frigates, he faced one British ship of 50 guns and another with 22. In a close fight, he locked his Richard with one of the British ones, prePAGES FROM paring to board. one WESTERN However, of the AmeriHISTORY can ships fired both of the J’Nell L.

The gunner of the Richard, believing that Jones and his second in command were dead, offered to surrender to the British. Overhearing him, Jones made his famous cry, “I have not yet begun to fight!” One of his crew threw a grenade

on board the British ship, the Serapis, and after a three hour fight, the British gave up. Jones and his crew boarded the Serapis, but saw their own ship burn and sink with its American flag still flying. An event with a western connection occurred in 1778 when Jones landed at St. Mary's Isle on the coast of Scotland near where he grew up. He wanted to kidnap his father's old employer, the Earl of Selkirk, and trade him for the release of American prisoners. Unfortunately, the Earl was not at home. While Jones chatted with the Earl's wife, his men without his knowledge stole the family silver and other valuables. Later when Jones learned what his men had done, he wrote a note to the Earl vowing that he would return it. After he did so, the Earl sent him a letter of thanks and wrote the Times of London, saying Jones was not a pirate, but a “man of his word and a naval gentleman.” Witnessing Jones's visit and courteous chat with his mother was the young son of the Earl, who remained

mightily impressed. Years later he inherited his father's title and estate, and also became the governor of the Hudson's Bay Company. He was heard to comment on his admiration for the character of John Paul Jones and called him a model of the type of man to be found in America. As the fifth Earl of Selkirk, he financed a mass migration of Scottish farmers to start a colony in North America (western Canada), because he knew that they had a better chance to succeed there than in Scotland at the time. Many of those Scots later made their way southwest to Puget Sound and the Seattle area. Others went further south to the Willamette Valley in Oregon. Descendants of those Scots even today live in those areas. One never knows the impression on others that politeness and keeping one's word might have!

Candidates show differences as primaries approach

ounting down to Primary Election Day on March 4, Republican Greg Abbott and Democrat Wendy Davis remain the presumptive frontrunners for governor in their respective party races. For lieutenant governor, state Sen. Leticia Van de Putte of San Antonio stands alone as the Democrat vying for that powerful offi ce, while Republican primary voters will have a fi eld of four candidates to choose from in that race: incumbent Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst; Jerry Patterson, land commissioner; Todd Staples, agriculture commissioner; or Dan Patrick, chair of the state Senate Committee on Education. While agreeing on most issues, one popular way those four Republican candidates seek to differentiate themselves is by publicizing lists of endorsements by various political action committees and other special interest groups.

Lady Hornet hoops season ends in Area by mark k. campbell Not only had the Lady Hornet basketball team returned to the postseason for the first time since 2006, but Azle (22-11) won its first playoff game. Round two pitted AHS against a tough foe, Fort Worth’s Trimble Tech, coming in with 27 wins. The Lady Bulldogs got off to a fast start and the Lady Hornets played chase the entire game, losing 73-46. But Azle never quit chasing. Coach Mitzi Marquart said, “What I am most proud of is that our young ladies never quit. Even through they jumped on us early, we continued to battle.” Playing at Boswell High School on Valentine’s Day, Tech bolted out to a 24-7 lead after the initial quarter. That expanded to 43-19 by halftime. Marquart said, “No question, Trimble Tech was a very athletic, talented, and disciplined group.” To open the second half, the Azle crowd – substantially larger than their opponent’s – roared as the Lady Hornets scored the first eight points of the third period. When the rapid-fire, back and forth combat settled as the third quarter buzzer sounded, both teams had scored 16 points each. The squads played near even the rest of the way.

AHS champs of Brock softball tournament By mArk k. CAmpBeLL The first time out for the Lady Hornet softball team was impressive: Azle (6-0) won the Brock tournament. Until bracket play arrived, AHS clobbered all comers. The year opened with an 11-3 drubbing of San Angelo Lake View. Makenzi Harris (3-0) got the win for the Lady Hornets. Next, hurler Samantha Bradley (2-0) permitted only one run to Dublin as Azle cruised to a 16-1 victory. On a windy Valentine’s Day morning at 8 a.m., AHS took out Celina 13-2 behind the stellar pitching of Harris. After Bradley picked up her second victory of the year with a 14-4 blasting of Breckenridge, bracket games arrived. Azle faced Pampa in the semifinals, winning 5-1. Sophomore Raelyn Temple broke open a scoreless game with a 3-run double in the fifth inning. Harris got the victory. That win catapulted the Lady Hornets into the championship game. Brock, No. 4 in the state in 2A and 2009 state champs, awaited on their new all-weather diamond. Bradley, a sophomore, took the mound and threw a 3-hit shutout en route to a 3-0 win.

The big blow came in the first inning from Azle’s other ace, Harris. The junior walloped a 3-run homer and that was all Bradley needed. First-year coach Tracy Tadlock said, “We had a successful weekend. Not only because we won, but with all the practice time we missed and just getting the basketballers in, we also got an opportunity to work out some kinks – especially on defense.” He said he expects the competition to ramp up in the coming weeks. “Our goal is to continue working and build on the early success we have achieved,” Tadlock said. The next outing is another tournament, this time to White Settlement in an event hosted by Brewer, a 5-4A district mate. On Feb. 20, Azle will face Kennedale (No. 5 in 3A) and Plainview. The next day comes a mighty matchup: Azle will see Ale do, No. 2 in 4A (behind Buda Hays) according to the Texas Girls Coaches Association poll. Later on Feb. 21, the Lady Hornets face 5A Northwest. The tourney ends with games against Graham and Ennis on Feb. 22.

Grubbs champ, 3 others medal at state wrestling By MARk k. CAMpBeLL While Jesse Grubbs was repeating as the state wrestling champion (that story is on the front page), several other Azle High School athletes were vying for medals. And three achieved that goal – Lady Hornets Ruby Ariosa and Bernadette Duhan and Hornet Colten Clearwater. Both Ariosa (95 pounds) and Duhan (110) battled through the lower bracket to reach the bronze medal clash. Clearwater (145) won his battle for the fifth place spot. With Grubbs, all were AllState by virtue of finishing in the medals. Logan Little (160) and Justin Scarbro (heavyweight) also collected victories at state but did not place. Ariosa reached the bronze round with a thrilling, last second pin in the prior clash. Earlier, she had beaten opponents from Houston Lee, Humble, Fort Worth Trimble Tech, and Hereford. Coach Chris Allen said, “She really shocked me with her mental focus and the will to

win she showed in placing at the state tournament in her only her first season.” Duhan lost her opening outing then peeled off wins to advance. She took down rivals from Austin Johnson, Rio Grande City, and Frisco Liberty for her shot at the bronze. “I was proud of Bernie for finishing higher than last year’s place despite being up in a weight class,” Allen said. Clearwater also lost early then fought all the way back to the fifth place match that he won in nail-biter, 1-0. Allen said, “He really peaked as the season progressed; he wrestled smart and his offense really picked up the further he went into the tournament.” Little went 1-2, pinning the Region 4 champion early. Scarbro was also 1-2 at state. In a special moment, qualifier Lauren Gilbert was publicly lauded; she won Region 2 and was a near lock for a state medal, but was hurt in a wreck and had to withdraw from state. With just three wrestlers, Azle tied for fifth in the team race out of 68 schools.

Baseball to start with a tourney With even more improvement from his squad evident during scrimmages, Azle High School head baseball coach Anthony Barron said his unit is ready to begin the season. In the final scrimmages, “we put the ball in play and scored a lot of runs,” the coach said. “Our pitching staff did well and the defense is starting to mesh together and get the job done.” The season begins with Azle one of four hosts of the annual Jerry Durant Classic. AHS welcomes Birdville first, at noon on Feb. 20. “They knocked us out of the playoffs last year and the guys are looking to redeem themselves,” said Barron.

AHS still flawless in 12-4A The Azle High School soccer teams remain at the top of the heap in District 12-4A action. The boys continue to over power rivals, especially defensively. Keeper Austin McCash literally saved the match in a 1-0 win over Saginaw, coach Ben Buentello recalled. McCash stopped a Rough Rider’s point blank shot. “Austin and our starting defense have not allowed a goal in district play,” the coach said. Josa Gomez got the lone score in the Saginaw contest with an assist by Dylan Tritton. Earlier, AHS thumped Brewer 3-0. Tritton scored twice and Danny Gomez booted in the other score. Josa and Danny Gomez were credited with assists. The girls (10-2-2, 5-0-1) stayed unbeaten in district but “laid an egg” in a tie with A second half goal by Molly Grover broke a 1-1 tie Brewer, coach Trent Davis recalled. against Brewer.

RoboCop: Part man, part machine, all boring Not many people are crazy about the reboot of RoboCop. Some wondered why remake a beloved classic. Sci-fi fans sang that song about Total Recall (2012, Movie Man No. 994, a 6) and horror fans really didn’t need another Evil Dead (2013, MM #1,034, 4). It’s true for all genres; if a movie is really a hit initially, why remake it? One argument for remakes is that cinematic technology can make the original better. Another mention is that it’s a chance to bring a classic to a new generation. Whatever the reason, there’s one thing that can put the hurt on any movie, new or old – bad acting. There’s a big example of some stinky acting in the new RoboCop – and it happens to be the Robocop.

was quickly followed by another 1, Date Movie [MM# 653]. FYI for Movie Man newbies: There are far more 9’s than 1’s and there has never been a 10 [only Movie Wife is a 10].) Some athletes aren’t too hot onscreen – like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Shaquille O’Neal. (Admittedly the former has managed to have a fun career.) Then there are real actors who manage to fi nagle a starring role and end up being terrible. Remember how Hayden Christiansen damaged the already wounded second Star Wars trilogy? Now we have Joel Kinnaman, the new RoboCop. It’s rare to see such bad acting in a major release. Plus he has the misfortune to be in a cast with a pair of talented veterans, Gary Oldman and Michael Keaton. It’s one thing to expect KinAbout the movie naman to make the role robotic, The original RoboCop in but he does it as a human before 1987 remains a sci-fi touch- he gets suited up, too.

Azle’s Roberson interns for Kidd BY CARLA NOAH STUTSMAN One Azle High School graduate can say without hesitation that dreams really do come true. From the time he was a little “Kidd” listening to the radio as his mom drove him to Azle Elementary (the Rock School), Alex Roberson says he’s been a fan of Kidd Kraddick and his radio show. Roberson, a 2009 AHS grad, doesn’t hold back when it comes to his admiration of the late, great radio personality. “I’ve really looked up to Kidd Kraddick all my life,” Roberson said. “I’ve dreamed of someday being like him.” A series of events that Roberson can’t exactly explain led to his being chosen to be an intern on the nationally syndicated Kidd Kraddick in the Morning radio show. Already working two part time jobs and taking classes at Tarrant County College, Roberson jumped at the opportunity. In the position of intern (which, as the term implies, is an unpaid position), Roberson does pretty much whatever the crew at the show asks him to. Sometimes that involves live tweeting about the show during the day or running to a nearby deli to get breakfast or lunch. It can even mean going on the air with radio personalities Kellie Rasberry, Jose “J-Si” Chavez, Big Al Mack, Jenna Owens, and “Psycho” Shanon Murphy, the cast of the show that has kept going even in light of Kraddick’s untimely death in July 2013.

pieces of his destiny began to fall into place during his fi rst or second semester at TCC, not long after graduating from AHS. “We had to interview someone we wanted to be like when we grew up, so I emailed Jenna Owens, who was new on the (Kraddick) show at the time,” Roberson says. “She actually responded to my email, and we met at a Starbucks in Dallas – I bought her coffee.” Roberson says he and Owens talked for more than two hours, and he really enjoyed the opportunity to get to know and learn from her. Life rocked on. Roberson, who’s aiming for a communications degree from UTA someday, continued working as head doorman at the Omni Hotel in Fort Worth, where one day he ran into former American Idol contestant Tim Halperin. It just so happens that Halperin was the subject of an ongoing bit on Kidd Kraddick in the Morning called “Idol Got It Wrong” – something that led to Halperin and Kraddick forming a close friendship. As a result of meeting Halperin, Roberson decided he should hire the singer to perform at his girlfriend’s graduation party. “When I found out how much it cost, I knew I couldn’t afford it,” Roberson says. “But the Lord laid it on my heart to hire him (Halperin) so I worked extra hours and saved up the money, and I did it.” Eventually, he and the girlHow it began In Roberson’s mind, the friend broke up, but Roberson

continued his friendship with Halperin. Roberson was able to help Halperin with some publicityrelated jobs as Halperin’s newly released album was getting ready to come out. Connections Early in the friendship, Roberson had mentioned to Halperin he’d like to intern at the Kraddick show, and one day, months later, Halperin told Roberson: “If you really want to intern there, just let me know.” Roberson did, right then and there. Halperin put him in touch with Russ Francis, social media and marketing manager for the radio show. Roberson emailed him in June 2013, but things didn’t work out at that time. Roberson volunteered to work at the VIP entrance for a Kidd’s Kids concert just two weeks after Kraddick’s death, and it just happened that he was teamed up with the wife of a Kraddick show engineer. But early in January, Francis emailed Roberson to see if he was still interested in the internship. Roberson assured Francis he was and sent a resume. Five days later, Francis called to offer Roberson the job. Roberson’s been walking on clouds ever since. At the station He typically works Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at the

studio in Las Colinas from 6-10:45 a.m. and loves every minute of it. Roberson, who says he’s never met a stranger, came up with some ideas for the show within the fi rst couple of weeks he was there and his ideas were well-received. He was quickly dubbed “Lil Al” on the show. He was brought on air for a “Meet the Intern” segment, which can be heard at http:// www.kiddnation.com/meetthe-intern-alex-audio/. In his fi rst-ever opportunity to be on the air, he was asked what he wants to be when he grows up and his reply was an instant “I want to be right here – this is a dream of mine.” More recently, Roberson got another opportunity to go on the air with the Kraddick crew on Valentine’s Day, when he showed up at the studio with cards and fl owers for each of the ladies. Although the stunt didn’t go over well with J-Si and Big Al – they showed up empty-handed for Valentine’s Day – the ladies seemed to love it. You can listen to the audio from the segment at http://www.
