Boca Raton was ready.

As Hurricane Irma’s forecast covered nearly the entire state, there was no waiting around. Millions of people packed up and left their homes, creating the largest evacuation in the history of Florida.

For those that stayed, it was all about preparation. Local gas stations had lines stretching out to the streets and local stores were running out of bread and water. Meanwhile, neighbors helped with shutters, friends helped with supplies and the whole community came together as the storm barreled toward the state.

Community Boca Raton Stared Down Hurricane Irma and Made it Through the Storm

By: Michael Demyan

Boca Raton was ready.

As Hurricane Irma’s forecast covered nearly the entire state, there was no waiting around. Millions of people packed up and left their homes, creating the largest evacuation in the history of Florida.

For those that stayed, it was all about preparation. Local gas stations had lines stretching out to the streets and local stores were running out of bread and water. Meanwhile, neighbors helped with shutters, friends helped with supplies and the whole community came together as the storm barreled toward the state.

Palm Beach County district schools also closed days before the storm, along with Boca Raton’s universities, to allow students, staff and their families to adequately formulate a plan.

“Boca Raton is prepared to respond to this storm effectively with experienced staff, state of the art equipment and dedicated volunteers,” Mayor Susan Haynie said as Irma slowly approached.

The hurricane became one of the strongest storms to ever come out of the Atlantic, with Category 5 force winds that lasted for days. After brushing against Cuba, the storm did weaken, but still made landfall in the Florida Keys as a Category 4.

While the worst of the storm stayed to the west coast, Boca Raton and the rest of the south portion of the state still felt some of the strongest impacts.

Hurricane force winds and rain passed through, resulting in flooding, debris and uprooted trees. The mayor’s words were put into action.

During and after the storm, Boca Raton police officers enforced curfews to keep residents safely inside their homes and away from the strong winds and flying debris. Throughout Irma, the

main goal was for everyone who stayed behind to safely wait it out.

By the time it passed through, millions were left without power, including hundreds of thousands in Palm Beach County. Florida Power and Light, with the help of other companies, jumped right in, making it their priority to turn the electricity back on as quickly as possible. Today, all homes in Palm Beach County have had their power restored.

The community also came together to help one another out through donations, fun activities or simply lending a helping hand.

During four days without power, Lynn University students who rode out the storm were able to participate in Camp Irma, a group formed to provide some entertainment such as karaoke and Uno tournaments. Students in grade school affected by the hurricane were also treated to free meals provided by the USDA.

“In times of disaster, it’s paramount that USDA makes it as easy as possible for our programs to be administered, so no one affected by this disaster goes hungry,” USDA secretary Sonny Perdue said.

As far as relief efforts, the Boca Raton community didn’t simply think of themselves, but also the millions of other Florida residents who felt the damaging winds and rain of Hurricane Irma, including those in the Florida Keys.

The Keys felt the worst of the storm as shown from the tremendous damage to buildings and neighborhoods.

The Boca Raton Police Department and Boca Raton Fire Rescue Services sent out deployments to Collier County and the Keys to help the areas through the aftermath. The firefighters also hosted a collection for those in Boca who wished to donate water and other supplies to help those who suffered in the Florida Keys.

Almost two weeks after the storm, things are still not back to normal, but it is only a matter of time before the cleanup in Florida comes to a conclusion through the cooperation from people around the country, including those in the Boca Raton community.

Boca Raton was not only prepared for Hurricane Irma, but prepared to help as well.

LongHorn Steakhouse Makes a Difference Fighting Hunger in the Delray Beach Community

According to Feeding America, one in eight Americans are food insecure.

That’s just one of the reasons why LongHorn Steakhouse has a long-standing tradition of feeding those who need it most in our local community.

For 14 years, the company’s more than 490 restaurants nationwide have participated in LongHorn Steakhouse Harvest. Through this program, restaurants gather unused, surplus food each week and prepare them for donation to a local nonprofit organization.

Items like meat, potatoes and vegetables are donated to organizations, such as Caring Kitchen in Delray Beach.

To date, the LongHorn Steakhouse restaurants in the West Palm Beach area have donated more than 294,000 pounds of food to local nonprofits.

Locally, the Delray Beach LongHorn regularly donates to Caring Kitchen. Additionally, the Boynton Beach location

partners with The Soup Kitchen, Inc.

LongHorn Steakhouse restaurants nationwide have donated more than 17.2 million pounds of food to local community food banks through the program since 2003. This donation equates to 14.3 million meals.

All Darden Restaurants brands, including Olive Garden, participate in the Harvest food donation program.

Together, the family of brands have donated 100 million pounds of food – or 83.3 million meals – to nonprofits nationwide.

But that’s not all. In addition to the Harvest program, the Darden Foundation recently donated $1.7 million to Feeding America to further hunger relief efforts. Of that amount, $491,000 was donated on behalf of all LongHorn Steakhouse locations, like the one here in the Delray Beach area.

Community Provides Free Hot Meals Post Irma

By Staff Reports

The power was restored to much of the city but Elaine Dunbar’s home was still in the dark. So the news of the free hot dinner for children at the library came as good news.

“God bless them for doing this for us,” Dunbar, 38, said. “I got a few things in the cabinet but I had to throw away everything I have in my refrigerator to eat. This is going to go a long way.”

The Delray Beach resident was among more than 500 people who received a hot meal in the Delray Beach Public Library parking lot on Monday.

Volunteers from more than 15 local businesses and organizations rallied to put on the event, which was meant to help those who were still going through tough times after Irma moved through South Florida last week.

The volunteers began serving food at 3 p.m. and by 5 p.m., when it began to rain, they had served 640 hot dogs and hamburgers. Each child got one hot dog or hamburger, and was allowed to go through a second time if they wanted.

Several city and community leaders, including all four city commissioners, joined members of civic groups to cook and serve the food. Bill Ceasar of Ceasar’s Famous Ribs and workers from Bear’s Food Shack worked two large grills while members of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. served the food.

Members of the Delray Beach Rotary Club served watermelons and on a nearby table, members of Alpha Kappa

September 22- September 28 , 2017

Alpha Sorority provided cases of water to the residents.

The library also handed out free books to the children. And the needy could also get free clothing at a table, manned by representatives from Royal Life Centers.

The food and supplies was a Godsend.

“The power may be back on but if we don’t have food in the house we are limited in how much we can do,” said Denise Babcock, who brought her three children. “The water is a hot commodity right now. We must have gone through 30 gallons in the last week.”

Islamorada Beer Company provided a truck load of water. Adults were given one case or one gallon of water.

Chaney Brothers, Community Markets, Publix, Delray Beach Masonic Lodge No. 275 and MADD Dads of Boynton Beach provided the food but the elbow grease was all volunteer.

That’s the beauty about this city.

We had a need and we made a call and everybody came out to do their part,” said Jamael Stewart, assistant Community Improvement Director, one of the organizers.

Other volunteers included members of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., Delray Beach Community Improvement Department, Delray Beach Public Library and Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc.

Organizers say they plan to continue providing food to the children and families as long as there is a need.

Boca Quilters Honor Veterans With Patriotic-Themed Quilts

By Evelyn Ross

Comfort and healing filled the lobby of the Delray Medical Center recently, as a local organization presented hand-sewn quilts and pillow cases to five war veterans for their service in the armed forces and their community.

“These men protected our country and it’s now an opportunity for the hospital and Quilts of Valor to honor them for their bravery and service,” said Diane Paquin-Provost, chairwoman of the Boca Raton chapter of the Quilts of Valor Foundation as she kicked off the ceremony.

Each quilt was uniquely handmade by members who did not know the recipients but were aware of the sacrifices each had made. The veterans served in the Korean War, World War II and the Vietnam War.

After a brief introduction of each veteran, the creator of the quilt presented it to him. They held it up for a photo then the creator, as a tradition, draped the vet with the quilt.

A sixth veteran was absent.

“I’m very honored and touched.

Thank you so much,” Ron Price, a U.S. Navy seaman and Vietnam veteran, said as his quilt was draped around his shoulders. “I’m blessed, honored, and grateful, for this quilt, and the chance to meet other veterans who volunteer as well.”

The quilts represent healing. To the creators, it’s more than just cutting and sewing, but a journey to creating

www.bocaratontribune.com

something beautiful. The founder of the organization, Katherine Roberts, discovered this after watching the effect a quilt she made had on her son after his return from the war in Iraq. His shift in demeanor after receiving a colorful quilt inspired her to continue creating, eventually inviting friends, and expanding the outreach program to more than 200 members today.

This event meant a lot to volunteer Russell Sultenfuss, 69, of Boca Raton.

After graduating Field Artillery basic school, Sultenfuss was stationed in Oklahoma briefly before he was sent to Germany. The U.S. Army veteran worked with artillery and weapons from 19691972.

While his transition back home after the war was a rough one, he found comfort in helping those in his surrounding communities.

He began volunteering at Delray Medical Center about a year ago and does pet therapy with his dog Annie.

“My dog brings a smile to everyone she encounters and helps me get out,” Sultenfuss said.

Other honorees were Charles Carroll, 104, a former military police officer during WWII, Mel Fishman, a Morse code communicator in the Korean War and Julio Mastrovito, 86, a Navy flight deck personnel in the Korean War.

While the Quilts of Valor Foundation has made and distributed more than 167,000 quilts throughout the United States, Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and France since 2003, this was the first event held in Delray Beach.

To request a quilt from the Quilt of Valor Foundation, visit QOVF.org and click on the bottom right of the home page. To make a donation to the Boca Raton chapter, send checks to Quilt Guild by the Sea, P.O. Box 64, Boca Raton, FL 33429.

Irma Brought out the Best in Us, the Worst in a few

As Hurricane Irma slowly weaves her way into the annals of history, I think it is only appropriate that we do a post mortem on this devastating disaster that wreaked such havoc in our lives.

Although - fortunately - no lives were lost in Boca Raton and Delray Beach, the damage and destruction is far more than anyone expected.

It would be an understatement to say that Irma brought out the best in our community’s character. As people scrambled to stock up on food and other essential supplies at the 11th hour, I saw neighbors, strangers and just plain folks threw their all into helping each other to board up windows and put up shutters.

That tremendous show of people helping each other during this crisis is a reminder that despite widening political differences, Boca Raton and Delray Beach residents are decent people who care deeply about each other.

Thank you to the first responders - fire and law enforcement personnel - who worked tirelessly while facing damage to or loss of their own properties, as well as those volunteers who assisted with rescue and relief efforts.

Much credit to our mayors, city managers and chiefs of police who made

it clear they would not be dispatching you during the storm for safety reasons. I fully understand and support such a call.

Kudos also to Gov. Rick Scott who showed true leadership during this crisis.

Sporting his U.S. Navy ball cap, the former radar man was decisive, he communicated effectively in both English and Spanish and he was a voice of assurance when people needed that fearless leader.

I am sure he will give much credit to the Navy for instilling that “take charge attitude” in him early in life.

Interestingly, I and many can still hear Gov. Scott on the news urging residents to “get out now!”

Thank you Governor for your leadership.

The same can be said about communication from our local officials.

Delray Beach and Boca Raton kept residents informed via email, texts and social media before, throughout and after the crisis.

Thanks to Florida Power & Light workers who labored around the clock to ensure we had service as soon as humanly possible.

Both cities failed their residents miserably though by not thinking ahead in terms of logistics after the storm. It is

common sense that after any hurricane, at least in our areas, people would be out of electricity for days. Therefore, someone should have made plans to distribute water, ice and food for the needy.

I heard of an incident in Delray where while knocking on doors to check on residents after the storm, code enforcement officers learned that an elderly woman did not have electricity to preserve her medication. They arranged for her to get ice, an act that could have made a difference between saving a life and death.

As city leaders, both elected and hired, your duties involve more than to ensure that taxes are collected, streets are cleaned and trash is picked up. It is to make sure that a small task, such as providing ice for resident’s medication – which, by the way is not on their job description – gets done.

Then there were those who used this opportunity to prey on the vulnerable during this time. Among them were gas stations (some who hiked their prices as soon as it was reported that the storm was coming our way) and one of our institutions for higher learning who reportedly sold a case of water for $13, $10.01 more than Wal-Mart, where a case was for $2.99.

I guess that is still a deal, compared to a 24-pack of 16.9-ounce bottles of Ice Mountain Brand spring water that was priced at $99.99 on Amazon.com from a third-party seller called BestSource OfficeSupplies.

The same product was sold for between $8 to $44.90 at 39 online stores.

The days following the storm, neighbors pulled together again to help each other cut away downed trees from off cars and homes and clear driveways and streets of branches.

At Village Academy in Delray Beach, community leaders rallied with a chainsaw, a table saw and a blower to clear downed branches so students could return to a safe campus the following Monday.

It could take between 90 and 120 days for debris to be cleared, school officials said.

This was indeed a textbook case of neighbors helping neighbors. Unfortunately it took a feisty woman name Irma to bring out the best in everybody.

The early response to the ravages of Irma shows that deep down we know what really matters: People helping each other.

POSITIVE LIVING

By Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr.

Keeping Your Word!

Never accommodate yourself to the irresponsible actions of others, much less your own.

People need to be held accountable to their commitments, their promises, and whatever else is expected of them!

Many persons hope that keeping silent about a duty not executed, a project not completed, a promised not fulfilled will make them disappear, or cause people to forget about it. Yet, usually such is not the case. The expectant individual will fill his or her mind with bad thoughts about the failure carried out by the other person.

There’s no scale of significance about whatever is promised but never delivered. As insignificant as a commitment may be to respond in some fashion, at a specific day or time, one’s word must count for something. There are people who even volunteer for things they know in advance they shall never tackle, much less complete!

However, society cannot function adequately unless its members look more seriously at every commitment made, however small they might appear to be.

Others are counting on its completion and delivery. It’s reasonable for anyone to be casual and spontaneous in certain

things, but that should never apply to duties upon which so many others depend.

No one has the right to break a promise without timely informing those to whom it was made. It may be a phone call with information sought by another, an e-mail or letter to be written, a recommendation to be provided, a purchase to be secured et al. It’s often in smaller things that major blunders are created, and enduring disappointments take place!

Although lack of seriousness in the fulfillment of smaller or greater responsibilities has existed throughout human

history, it appears that the current age may eventually be classified in history by varied designations, one of which might well be “the age of irresponsibility.” People today never measure the consequences of their actions or inaction even about significant issues!

Make your “yes” always run swiftly to respond to what is expected of you, timely and efficiently. By the same token, may your “no” dispel any doubt in anyone’s mind about where you stand on a matter, great or small! In all situations, always keep your word!

Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr. is a Florida resident who, for many years, was a professor at the post-graduate level. He is a writer, a sought-after conference speaker, a man who lived in five continents of the world, having received his education in four of them. When he resided in southern California, he wrote a weekly column for the daily “Anaheim Bulletin,” which was carried for about six years, until he moved to south Florida.

FAITH

By Robert J. Tamasy

Confining Faith To Compartments?

By Robert Weinroth • So, notwithstanding the fact that Hurricane Irma veered to the west of the Florida peninsula, the number of events on the calendar was reduced to next to nothing. Brazilian Beat 2017 was one casualty of the storm. The festivities were scheduled for Saturday September 9th but storm preparation and public safety concerns resulted in cancellation and, unfortunately, it does not appear we will be able to reschedule this year.

• This list of cancellations included meetings of the City Council (the Regular Community Redevelopment Agency meeting, City Council Workshop and the Special Meeting to review the Downtown Special Assessment on September 11th were postponed; the Regular City Council Meeting; Parks & Recreation Board Meeting and the Community Appearance Board Meeting set for Tuesday September 12th also were postponed.

• Those meeting have now been rescheduled for next week with the CRA Meeting now scheduled for Monday September 25th at 1:30PM, followed by the Downtown Special Assessment Meeting and finally the City Council Workshop. After a brief recess, the City Council will reconvene at 6PM to hold a Tentative Budget Hearing.

• Normally, the City must have its budget for the upcoming fiscal year (FY 2017-18) reviewed and approved prior to the end of September. However, with the entire state impacted by Irma, the Governor granted several extra weeks to complete the public hearing process. Thus, the Final Budget Hearing has been tentatively scheduled for Monday October 2nd at 6PM. • Circling back to next week, the City Council and Greater Boca Raton Beach & Parks District will be meeting at 6500 Congress Avenue on Tuesday September 26th at 3PM. At that meeting, the potential purchase of Ocean Breeze will be discussed. The District has secured additional information it wishes to share with the Council including a legal opinion offered by Goren Cherof Doody & Ezrol on the transaction. In addition, the District will share the results of a feasibility analysis and business plan for the proposed municipal course and, finally, an appraisal report from Callaway & Price will be discussed. Presumably, after this information has been digested by the city a decision will be made on how to effect the acquisition of the course.

• Rounding out the Council’s meeting marathon will be its Regular Meeting on Tuesday September 26th at 6PM. This promises to be a meeting that will extend late into the evening with items originally scheduled for decision rolled forward to this meeting along with the items that would have normally been considered. In other words, it will be a full day!

• But let’s recap what happened over the past few weeks.

September 22- September 28 , 2017

• Several members of the Council joined the Southeast Florida Recovery Advocates for a Town Hall forum and rally for a federal response to the opioid epidemic. It was my honor to deliver the Mayor’s proclamation declaring August 31st Drug Overdose Awareness Day in Boca Raton. Many heartbreaking stories told about the devastating effects of opioid addictions and many more heartwarming stories of people who are n the road to recovery. As a corollary to this, the idea of the state of Florida initiating a lawsuit against the “Big Pharma” to recover the coasts of treating people addicted to opioids has been raised. It appears several states and local governments are taking or have contemplated similar actions (similar to Florida’s landmark case against the tobacco industry).

• Have you heard? Boca Raton is ranked No. 1 in the nation for retirees who like to keep busy working at least part-time, whether it’s for extra income or pleasure. SmartAsset, a New York-based personal finance and retirement savings website, ranked Boca Raton as the top spot of 11 cities, after researching US Census, household income, taxes and other data. The ranking is based on factors that might attract those 65 years old and over.

According to SmartAsset, Boca Raton is a city that’s great for seniors who want to have a good time and earn a little cash.

• The ranking considered factors including recreation and medical centers per 1,000 residents, the percentage of residents who are seniors, senior employment, median household income and housing costs. The biggest drawback for seniors who might want to move to Boca Raton is expensive housing.

The median cost of housing exceeds $18,000 a year • Undaunted by the approaching Hurricane, Business Development Board of Palm Beach County president, Kelly Smallridge, detailed the efforts employed by the BDB to attract businesses to Palm Beach County during a meeting of the Boca Chamber’s International Business Alliance. While Ms. Smallridge must support the economic development efforts of all cities within Palm Beach County, she did note that of the 67 corporate headquarters (located within Palm Beach County) 25 are located in Boca Raton.

Compartments can be useful.

We have “glove compartments” in our vehicles, even though hardly anyone uses them for gloves – instead, we keep flashlights, maps, repair receipts and other things there. Toolboxes and craft cases have compartments to keep things separated for easy access. But should one’s spirituality – faith – also be kept in a compartment, taken out only for special occasions?

Recently a friend who seeks to encourage and challenge business and professional people to consistently and effectively reflect Jesus Christ in the workplace made this comment to me: “I try to help my groups to integrate their faith in their business and within their sphere of influence in the marketplace. Unfortunately, they are very compartmentalized and are righteous on Sundays and holy terrors the rest of the week.”

This statement is strong, but also sad. It seems these businessmen and women have failed to grasp the connection between biblical truth they are being taught and its proper application for the work they do throughout the week. Since its inception, this has been a goal of “Monday Manna” – to show the practical relevance of what the Bible teaches to how we conduct ourselves on the job every day.

There is an adage, “East is east, and west is west – and never the twain shall meet.” However, when it comes to faith in Jesus Christ, the Bible says His presence and influence in our lives should be evident everywhere we go, in everything we do. Consider:

Who are we called to serve?

Typically, we go to work believing we

Heizer Media Group

• The Mission of the BDB is to stimulate economic energy, promote business diversity, and enrich the vitality of Palm Beach County through the relocation, retention, and expansion of companies to or in Palm Beach County.

• BRCS holds its weekly meetings at the airport. Because of this location they attract young people, pilots and former military to join their ranks. It also gives them easy access to their new Cessna 172, used for search and rescue, homeland security and aerospace education.

are there to serve our company, organization or immediate superior. In one sense, that is true. But the Bible says we have a higher calling than that. “And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ…. Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving” (Colossians 3:17,23-24).

We share in a unique partnership. It is tempting at times to question the value of our work, the significance of what we do each day. But according to the Scriptures, we are to understand we work in concert with God and His plans. “For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, God’s building” (1 Corinthians 3:9).

Work fulfillment ultimately comes from God. We often look to our work for meaning and fulfillment, but it can be even more meaningful when done as service to God and others. “A man can do nothing better than to eat and drink and find satisfaction in his work. This too, I see, comes from the hand of God, for without him, who can eat or find enjoyment?” (Ecclesiastes 2:24-25).

We represent Jesus through our work. Many outside the family of God will never venture into a church on their own. Our work provides a built-in network through which we can represent Him to others. “We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God” (2 Corinthians 5:20).

Charlotte’s Travels Hurricane Irma’s Over Party at Pavilion On Tuesday evening I attended a Hurricane Irma Party at the Pavilion. As the guest of Fran Daniels, we enjoyed a lovely dinner and show put on by the fabulous Rhythm Chicks.

Steve Fox’s BarBQ Party Steve Fox held his monthly party at the Pavillion Grill this month. A barbq was served to all that attended along with a fun game of Simon Sez.

Sunday Brunch at Taboo in Palm Beach I was joined by friends, Arlene Herson and Francesca Daniels for a wonderful Sunday Brunch at Taboo in Palm Beach. We were supposed to meet at Bricktop’s, but could not find the place, so we wound up at Taboo, not too shabby for sure!

Through Your Eyes: Hurricane Irma Hurricane Irma hit the western side of Florida two weeks ago; however the large storm was felt all the way in Boca Raton as thousands of residents saw the effects of the Hurricane right here from our City. Many were left without power for days, trees were taken down, and cars were broken. Our readers took photos during and after the hurricane and shared with us their best photos, below are those photos.

sports FAU Football Shuts Out BethuneCookman 45-0 for First Win

By: Michael Demyan

The Florida Atlantic University Owls captured their first win of the season Saturday night by a score of 45-0 at home against the Bethune-Cookman Wildcats.

The shutout was the first for the Owls in almost 11 years as they rushed for a school record of 439 yards, just two weeks after the Navy’s rushing game overpowered the Owl defense.

“I really challenged our guys that at the end of the game, I wanted to be able to say that we finally played really physical in all phases of the game,” head coach Lane Kiffin said.

The game started with a strong offensive drive from the Owls as they moved up 81 yards within their first six plays. Just when it looked like they had a chance of scoring however, the Owls fumbled the ball in the end zone, which was recovered by the Wildcats.

FAU was able to shake off the mistake and make another strong push during their second drive thanks to Daniel Parr and Gregory Howell Jr., which resulted in the first touchdown of the game. The two combined for 78 rushing yards before Parr added another nine when he brought the ball in for a touchdown.

After Greg Joseph successfully made the extra point, he followed up with an onside kick, which the Owls’ Ray Wilson Jr. recovered. The Owls moved forward with every play in the drive, including Parr completing all five passes.

The final pass was caught by Harrison

September 22- September 28 , 2017

Bryant, who brought it in for his first career touchdown.

Bethune-Cookman couldn’t grab a first down during their first possession in the second quarter and surrendered the ball to the Owls, who were able to get another touchdown in 13 plays. After the extra point, they led 21-0.

The offense for both sides were quiet through the rest of the half, but the Owls kicked it back into high gear in the third quarter, sandwiching a Joseph field goal between two more touchdowns. By the end of the third, the lead was extended to 38-0.

A fumble recovered by Chris Tooley resulted in their final touchdown in the fourth quarter and the Owls went on to win 45-0.

Kiffin, who recorded his first victory as a head coach since 2013, was very pleased with the Owls’ performance during the game.

“At the end of the day, to come away with 439 yards rushing to 61, I commend the players and coaches for that,” he said. “Most rushing yards in the history of the school, and first shutout in 10 years, very pleased with that. I’m proud of our guys getting their first win, and it was good to see the guys have fun.”

Howell and Devin Singletary led the Owls with 175 and 109 rushing yards, respectively. DeAndre McNeal led the team in receiving yards with 70. Parr completed 15 of 26 passes for a total of 165 yards.

FAU (1-2) will now travel to Buffalo for a Saturday night game against the Bulls (1-2) on Sep. 23.

The Delray Beach Wonder

Delray Beach’s Cori “Coco” Gauff - the 13-year-old who you may still be reading about once she turns 26 - had a super run all the way to the US Open Junior finals in New York.

And although she lost on Sunday, Coco made history as being the youngest ever to make it to the US Open Junior finals.

Coco lost to Amanda Anisimova 6-0, 6-2 in 65 minutes in the girls’ final.

This is Anisimova’s first junior Grand Slam singles title, besting her runner-up finish at the 2016 French Open. Anisimova has also already made waves with her singles career at the senior level, as she is currently ranked World No.182 and made her senior Grand Slam main draw debut at this year’s French Open.

It was a brisk opening set by the No.4 seed, as she hit nine winners and only eight unforced errors, and never faced a break point. By contrast, Coco started slowly, hitting only three winners to her nine unforced errors.

Coco put up more stern resistance in the second set, having four chances to break the Anisimova serve, and breaking once. But the greater experience of the 16-year-old, at multiple levels, precluded her from faltering at any point

in the match.

While both players had 19 unforced errors in the second set, Anisimova had 11 winners to Coco’s nine, and held a whopping 13 break points in the set, converting four. A forehand error by Coco gave Anisimova the victory, and her first junior Grand Slam singles title.

Coco’s drive began with her parents, both athletes in their college years.

Her dad, Corey, was a basketball player at Georgia State; her mom, Candi, ran track at Florida State.

After playing soccer, tennis and gymnastics “when I was younger,” according to the freshly minted teen, Coco decided to focus solely on tennis when she turned 8. A few years later, along with her two younger brothers, 9-yearold Codey and 3-year-old Cameron, the Gauff family moved from Atlanta to Delray Beach, a junior-tennis haven and professional-tennis incubator.

“He’s helping me get there,” Coco once said about her dad, and her ambition. “Right now I just want to go pro.”
