Kagan will return to state House Incumbent retains seat in redrawn district By Deborah Grigsby
dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com Redrawn borders made the race for Colorado House District 3 a nail-biter, with incumbent Democrat Daniel Kagan narrowly defeating Republican Brian Watson by a margin of less than 1,600
votes. Unofficial results the morning of Nov. 7 show Kagan garnering 50 percent of the vote, 16,883 votes to Watson’s 15,323. Watson got about 45 percent of the vote, with the remainder going to LiberKagan tarian David Jurist. Formerly a district where Democrats were the majority of voters, redrawn boundaries created an
almost even split between Democrats, Republicans and independents. “My take-away from this election is that the people of House District 3 don’t want extremism or ideology to dominate,” said Kagan. `They want commonsense, practical, bipartisan solutions to the problems we face.” Kagan and Watson endured one of the state’s more nasty and expensive mud fights, lobbing a series of unflattering campaign mailers and robo-calls. “I think this was a hard-fought, spir-
ited race and Brian Watson did a great job of getting his message out, but in the end, voters decided that my record of constructive solutions has been good,” Kagan said. The district is made up of Englewood, a strip of northern Littleton, Cherry Hills Village, Sheridan and Greenwood Village. A Yale-educated lawyer, Kagan served as a delegate to the 2008 Democratic National Convention and as an attorney for the Hillary Clinton campaign in ColoraKagan continues on Page 10

Swedish has new stroke treatment Hospital among 20 doing pilot study By Tom Munds
tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com In past years, clot-busting medication was the primary treatment for an ischemic stroke, where a clot cuts off blood supply to part of the brain. But Swedish Medical Center is using new technology that, in many cases, can reach and remove the clot. “Our center treats 20 to 30 stroke patients a month,” said Dr. Donald Frei, the neurointerventional radiologist at Swed-
ish. “We are one of 20 hospitals doing a pilot program study on an improved catheter system that is inserted in the blocked artery. The innovation is the separator that is inserted into the catheter and through the clot. Then the separator then grabs the clot, drawing it back into the catheter, where suction removes it from the artery.” The device is called the Penumbra MAX System Reperfusion Catheter, and Frei said the device is important because, in stroke treatment, time is everything. “The saying in stroke treatment is that time is brain,” he said. “That is because cutting off blood supply to any part of the brain means 30,000 brain cells die every second.”

Swedish is the only hospital in the Rocky Mountain area using the new technology. Frei said there are 800,000 strokes a year in the U.S., and 15 percent are the type where a clot blocks a major artery to the brain. He said the device could be used to help treat about 120,000 patients a year. For many years, the best available treatment for blocked arteries in the brain used so-called “clot buster” medication to break up the blockage. It saved many lives and helped many stroke victims recover, even though there were potentially serious side effects. More recently, treatment also could involve the use of catheters attached to suction to try to draw the clot out of the artery. The catheter treatment was an advance in stroke treatment that wasn’t available 15 to 20 years ago. The MAX system improves on the catheter technology, Frei said. Area residents are fortunate because Swedish Medical Center is one of only two or three comprehensive stroke treatment centers in Colorado where there is the equipment and the specialists to proTreatment continues on Page 10
Two meetings are scheduled for proponents to talk about their proposal to start a charter school in Englewood. The Colorado League of Charter Schools states that charter schools are tuition-free public schools, operated by an independent group of parents, teachers and/or community members. The statement says that because charter schools are independent, they have more flexibility to be innovative. The first meeting will be held at 6 p.m. Nov. 13 at the Maddox building, 700 W. Mansfield Ave. There will be a second meeting at the same time and place on Nov. 27. The tentative plans for both meeting are for the charter school proponents to outline their proposal and answer questions. The Englewood School Board will decide whether or not to accept the charter school application. The board will review the proposal, and the approval of the application is tentatively scheduled to be on the agenda of the first board meeting in December. “A group came forward about a year ago, held off and presented their proposal for a charter school on Oct. 1,” said Karen Brofft, Englewood schools assistant superintendent. “Their plan calls for a core-knowledge school that will open for kindergartners through fifth-graders. Their goal is to grow and eventually be a kindergarten through eighth-grade school.” She said the proposal does not include information about where the school will be located. Charter schools were first authorized under the 1993 Colorado Charter School Act. A charter school operates under a contract from the school district or the Colorado Charter School Institute. There were about 170 charter schools in Colorado operating in the 2011-12 school year. Charter schools receive 100 percent of the state pupil funding for each student enrolled in the program.

Big day for calendar artists
City recognizes kids who submitted contest entries

Proud parents, grandparents and siblings joined the young artists at the Oct. 24 reception honoring the creators of the works selected as the 50 best entries in this year’s Englewood Calendar Art contest. The artworks line the walls of the second floor of the Englewood Civic Center and will be on display through the end of the month. The display included the artworks chosen for the 2013 Englewood calendar. A little later this year, the artists will be honored at a city council meeting where each artist will receive his or her framed work as well as some other gifts. At the Oct. 24 reception, first-grader Josline Ortiz proudly showed her mother Monica her artwork depicting a ladybug that was selected for the 2013 calendar. “Our art teacher had us all make pic-

50 best entries, including those artworks that will appear in the next year’s calendar. Kyra Roquemore’s painting of a butterfly was among the artworks chosen for the calendar. “I did my painting of a monarch butterfly because I like butterflies,” the Colorado’s Finest Alternative High School freshman said. “I made the butterfly the center and painted it between the beautiful flowers in the garden and the pretty blue sky.” She said it took her about two years to create the artwork using watercolor pencils. The artist said the medium allows her to use pencils to set down the color on the painting and then apply water with a paintbrush to create the watercolor effect. “I love art and I really like to draw flowers. I think that is because my mother loves flowers,” the freshman said. “I enjoy drawing and my favorite medium is pencil. I like pencil because you can create the atmosphere of a picture by using shading. I also like pencil because, if you make a mistake, you can use the eraser.”

Matt Ostrowski, a 1989 Englewood High School graduate, was scheduled to head the team that harvested the 70-foot tall Engelmann spruce chosen as the Christmas tree that will stand in the U.S. Capitol. “Each year, the Capitol’s Christmas tree is harvested in a national forest, and this year, it was decided the tree would come from the White River National Forest near Meeker,” Ostrowski said. “Ken Coffin of the U.S. Forest Service heads the U.S. Capitol Tree Project and eventually selected the Engelmann spruce that is in the national forest but is on land owned by the Ripple Creek Lodge. The owner knew me and the quality work our company does and recommended us to cut down the tree.” The government checked out Tree Medicine Tree Service, owned by Matt and his father, Joe. The company is an Englewood-area residential and commercial tree care company that has a good reputation for quality work and service. Ostrowski added that his dad has 40 years in the business and is one of the most respected arborists in the Denver metro area The result was the Ostrowski firm was selected to harvest the tree, so Matt and Joe Ostrowski were to head a team of five or six company employees, most of them Englewood residents, to harvest the tree on Nov. 1. Matt said the U.S. Forest Service hired Coloradan Bruce Ward, founder of outdoor-recreation coalition Choose Outdoors, to market and organize the tree harvest, the events and the stops. There was a ceremony on Nov. 1 as representatives of the Ute Indian tribe bless the tree before it is harvested. Matt Ostrowski said the tree is pretty accessible, but it is 114 feet off the road, and harvesting the tree could present some challenges be-

Courtesy photo cause it was expected the ground and the tree would be covered with snow. “The first step is for our climbers to go up in the tree to connect the cable from the crane,” he said. “Then, before we start work with the chain saw, we have to peel away the bark a couple feet above the cut line so a bladder with special nutrients can be attached to keep the tree green and fresh. Then we’ll begin harvesting the tree that is 28 inches in diameter at the base. We will cut through it four feet above the ground.” He said the tree can’t simply fall to the ground because it would damage it. So, a crane and a boom truck were to be hooked up to the tree before the crew begins cutting down the tree. “When the tree is cut free of the
stump, the crane and boom truck will maneuver it to a horizontal position,” he said. “The crane and boom will work together and place the tree on a special cradle on a large flatbed truck.” The tree was to be moved to a shelter in Meeker to be wrapped in a special material to prevent wind damage and help keep tree as pristine as possible. There was to be a ceremony in Meeker on Nov. 3 before the tree began its cross-country trip. The tree was to make make 14 stops in Colorado, plus a number of other stops in cities along the route, before it will arrive at the west lawn of the U.S. Capitol, where the tree will be unloaded. The tree then will be put in place and decorated in time for the official lighting on Dec. 6.

ELECTION 2012
Brauchler to be new district attorney GOP candidate wins in 18th By Jane Reuter
jreuter@ourcoloradonews.com Republican George Brauchler will be the new district attorney for Douglas, Arapahoe, Elbert and Lincoln counties, defeating Democrat Ethan Feldman 53 percent to 47 percent, according to unofficial results released on the morning of Nov. 7. Brauchler takes over for termlimited Republican Carol Chambers. With returns coming in slowly in Arapahoe County late on Election Night, Brauchler expressed cautious optimism that he had landed the job in the 18th Judicial District. “I’m very confident,” he said, as supporters at the Highlands Ranch LoDo’s
sports bar gathered around him to offer hugs, handshakes and congratulations. “We came into tonight very confident.” Feldman, too, was reluctant to call it a night. At 10:30 p.m., he declined Brauchler to concede, saying there were “still a lot of votes to count in Arapahoe County.” However, by the morning of Nov. 7, Feldman posted a statement of concession on his campaign website. “It appear the voters of the 18th Judicial District have spoken and I will not be the next DA,” he wrote. Feldman’s loss came despite many high-profile endorsements, including those from Republicans such as Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson and former District Attorney Robert Gallagher. The race was critical this year,
some said, with the district thrown into the national spotlight by July’s Aurora theater shootings. Brauchler’s confidence grew with each passing minute on Election Night. While the definitive answer that hinged on Arapahoe County did not come by night’s end, he admitted the math was in his favor. His words changed from that of a candidate to a district attorney. “What people can expect is the same bold, new, energetic leadership I’ve been campaigning on since I came back from Iraq in October,” Brauchler said. “This is the most populous jurisdiction in Colorado. We have every reason to expect and demand the best district attorney’s office in Colorado.” Feldman offered his gratitude the morning of Nov. 7. “I want to thank all the people who worked so hard for me, and supported me,” he said. “I wish Mr. Brauchler well.”
Brauchler has plenty of work ahead of him. “This is going to be a significant transition,” he said. “The first thing is to spend these next two months trying to transition into an office that literally hasn’t had anyone outside of it elected to take it over since 1968.” Brauchler thanked his supporters, many of whom he said don’t have a history of heavy political involvement. Their belief in him “is humbling,” he said. “It creates more pressure. I want to vindicate the trust these people have in me.” Brauchler lives in Douglas County and spent much of his career as a military prosecutor. He and his wife have four children. Feldman lives in Arapahoe County and was a defense attorney, county and municipal court judge and deputy and chief deputy district attorney. He and his wife have two adult children.
DeGette keeps job Doty gets new post By Tom Munds
tmunds@ourcoloradonews.com
Democrat Diana DeGette easily swept to victory in Colorado’s 1st Congressional District race, with the muscle of Democratic voting numbers in her Denver base helping her overwhelm Republican chall lenger Danny Stroud. d Early results on Election Day showed DeGette swamping Stroud about 68 percent to 28 percent, with the remainder of the vote going n to Libertarian and Green d candidates. - DeGette was beating Stroud 74 percent to 22 n percent in Denver. In the DeGette - much smaller Arapahoe County portion of the dis- trict, DeGette was pulling about 56 percent of the vote to 39 percent. DeGette, widely expected to win e throughout the course of the race, drew e nearly $1 million in campaign contributions, while Stroud’s campaign reported e donations of a little more than $15,000. DeGette’s district includes all of Denver, plus Englewood, Sheridan, Cherry Hills Village and Glendale. DeGette, born in Japan to a military family but raised in Colorado, has won all nine of her runs for Congress. The former state lawmaker from Denver first won

election to the seat in 1996, when Democrat Pat Schroeder decided not to seek a 13th term. Stroud is the president of Veraz Ventures, described on his website as an operation that “helps companies that are distressed from Balance Sheet issues (over-leveraged, hostile lenders, etc.) work out re-capitalization plans.” Stroud, an Oregon native and longtime Colorado resident, ran unsuccessfully for the state House in 2010, then became chairman of the Denver Republican Party until stepping down in May to run against DeGette. DeGette is the longest-serving member of Colorado’s current congressional delegation and serves as the Democrats’ chief deputy whip. She has put considerable effort into legislation to expand stem cell research, which passed twice but was vetoed by President George W. Bush. DeGette played a large part in the 2010 passage of the Affordable Care Act and has been an outspoken backer of abortion rights. Denver has a 2-1 ratio of registered Democrats to registered Republicans, and 45 percent of voters in the 1st Congressional District are registered Democrats, the highest number of any Colorado district. With those registration numbers and the power of incumbency, DeGette could be on track to keep her job as long as she wants it. militarynotes@ourcoloradonews.com General press releases pressreleases@ourcoloradonews.com Letters to the editor letters@ourcoloradonews.com News tips news@ourcoloradonews.com Fax information to 303-566-4098 Mail to 9137 S.

as commissioner Conti keeps House District 38 seat Staff report Nancy Doty has a new job. Doty, the Arapahoe County clerk and recorder, won her bid to join the board of county commissioners. The Republican defeated Democrat Carrie WarrenGully, a political newcomer, in the race for the District 1 seat. Doty captured 63 percent of the vote, according to unofficial results Doty posted the morning of Nov. 7. During the campaign, Doty stressed her experience in managing a government office and said her top priority would be to maintain the county’s fiscal health. “I’m thrilled, and I look forward to serving the county as the next county commissioner,” Doty said on Election Night. Doty reported campaign contributions of more than $50,000 through Nov. 2, and Warren-Gully raised more than $19,000. District 1 includes Littleton, Englewood, Sheridan and western Centennial. A look at how some of the other races of local importance were shaping up:
State House District 38 Republican incumbent Kathleen Conti was faced by Democrat Donovan O’Dell for the position that Conti took
from Democrat Joe Rice in the last election. Conti took the victory, with 58 percent of the vote with most votes in the morning of Nov. 7. Conti stressed her experience as a self-employed businesswoman and said she would focus on the issue of salestax remittance. She also called for more choices in education and consideration of merit pay for teachers. The district includes Littleton and western Centennial.
State Senate District 26 Democrat Linda Newell, the incumbent state senator for District 26, defeated Republican challenger Dave Kerber by a 53 percent to 47 percent margin, according to results early the morning of Nov. 7. Newell raised about $213,000 in contributions, more than double Kerber’s $106,000 as of Oct. 29, but Kerber still had a high profile in the race for the district that includes Littleton, western Centennial, Cherry Hills Village, part of Englewood, Sheridan, Columbine Valley and portions of Bow Mar. Littleton resident Newell’s legislative service has included a focus on children’s and family issues, including child protection reform, the creation of a training academy for child welfare workers, and the creation of an ombudsman position for people dealing with the child protection system. Kerber, a Greenwood Village resident, served four terms on city council. He worked as a lawyer before going into the public warehouse business. He touted his experience in campaigning on issues of job creation and business success.

OPINIONS / YOURS AND OURS
It is what it is — but it always is Maybe it’s “It is what it isn’t,” but around here it is definitely not “It is what it is.” We are not pro-slogan, phrase, or cliché in this tract house. We don’t do “One day at a time” or “Let go and let God.” We also don’t do “do.” So don’t be asking me to “do lunch.” We eat lunch. I avoid clichés like there is no tomorrow. Like the plague. I am not interested in gimme-expressions. I prefer to reach a little further than a “calm before the storm.” “Katie bar the door” is better. And “A hearty man eat a toad” is better still. Clichés enable us to all-purpose a thought or reaction without really thinking or reacting. Trying to really say something meaningful puts us between a rock and a hard place, and who wants that? You would have to have bats in the belfry. You’ve heard me say over and over that we no longer care about what we say over and over. I just returned from New York City, barely, just ahead of Sandy, and everyone everywhere was tapping away like fat
little pigeons — on their cell phones, and each of them was sending this identical message. “It is what it is.” It’s a phrase that means absolutely nothing but implies that it covers everything. It is empty. The language cupboard is bare. It’s garbage in and garbage out. I will bet you a squeaky wheel that you will hear “It is what it is” more than once today. Chances are you will say it your own self. It gets worse. Americans have turned their refrigerators into bulletin boards. It’s been reported that 88 percent of us have some kind of malarkey on our refrigerators: appalling magnets (birdies,
kitties, piggies, Broncos crap, cars, cookies, bookies, and Snookies), childish drawings by children, childish drawings by grown-ups, business cards, reminders, photos of grandma holding a fish, a soccer schedule from last season, and a picture of Ann Coulter with horns on her head, something I approve of. It’s not exactly Aesthetics 101. You can buy magnetic letters and create a spell out: “Housework is evil! It must be stopped.” Or even, “It is what it is.” OMG! When someone says, “It is what it is,” I feel like I have been handed a Wish Sandwich: two slices of bread and wish you had some meat in between. I ate a lot of those when I was a kid. It goes without saying that we were as poor as a church mouse. I think that’s what made my father reach for the hair of the dog. Around here life imitates art. It has to because I am an artist. For me, art is the only game in town. When I was a kid I was caught red-handed, painting on the walls. Now I paint on canvases. I have a
horse of a different color in the permanent collection of the Museum of Outdoor Arts. You’ll have to hold your horses when you see it for the first time. I think it will make your day. It might even be a wake-up call for you. I know I created it when I was back in the saddle, artistically. Enjoy. My therapist likes to tell me, “What goes around comes around.” I know exactly what she means. She also tells me, “Craig, it’s three strikes and you’re out.” No way! I know I have two strikes on me and I have fouled off a dozen pitches. But I am hanging in there, because back in the day I had it all going on. Then I barked up the wrong tree. It was monkey see monkey do, and I made a few mistakes. I started to count my chickens before they were hatched. It wasn’t what it is. It isn’t what it was.

Just not that important after all The other day as I was reviewing my upcoming calendar I realized I was double booked on a few days, so I began to try and determine if there were meetings I could possibly reschedule or delegate to someone else. In my head I was really focused on rescheduling the meetings because they all seemed very important, and of course I felt like I was the only one who could possibly lead the meetings and deliver the best possible outcome. And so I was staring at the large dry erase calendar in my office that was filled with appointments as my wife came by. She had asked what I was doing and so I told her. Her immediate reply, too immediate if you ask me, was this, “You sometimes think you are more important than you really are.” Ouch, and it still stings a little as I write this, because it’s true. The truth hurts sometimes. She pointed out that I am too quick to want to handle everything and be involved in every opportunity and initiative and that I needed to trust the very capable, smart, and talented people on my team. Maybe she overheard some coaching I had done or read something I had written about delegation in the past, and was now serving me a heaping helping of my own advice. How about you? Are you that important? Are you the only one who can get the job done, or are there people, processes and technology that you can rely on to take some of the burden or pressure off of your busy schedule? Big question, right? It’s a big question because we first have to determine what is truly important to us and what our priorities really are. Every one of us will have the order of our own priorities. Some will consider relationships with their spouses, children, and close friends as first on their list. Others will place their emphasis on their faith. And there are many of us who prioritize our lives and schedules around our work. Then there are the folks who seem to have money as the highest on their list of things most important. Based on where we all are at the present moment, our priorities could easily shift, as each of the above could be increasingly more important at any given season of our lives. As I reflected on my own importance or lack thereof, I realized I could delegate
a couple of the meetings and avoid a trip or two here at the end of the year. There are people who can complete the task effectively and productively without me, and I can focus my energy and time of other things, things that do matter most. Just like many of you, work and money are a priority for me too. But perhaps I have deluded myself and have made excuses that both were so important that I have accepted placing my family and faith behind work and money. Big mistake. There is a framed poster on my office wall with one of my favorite quotes and reminders by Forest E. Witcraft that reads, “A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, what sort of house I lived in, or kind of car I drove … but the world may be a different place because I was important in the life of a child.” There it is in big print on my wall, right in front of me, I have to pass by it every day I come in and out of my office. And there are pictures of my children, my family, and my friends all over my office, once again right in front of me. I have memories of others so very important in my life embedded in my mind and held in my heart, not only right in front of me but a part of me. Yet, I had to be reminded that maybe, just maybe, I am really not that important after all. Now please don’t take this out of context. I know we are all important in the lives of other people in both our personal and my professional life. I get that. But I think I will accept the fact that sometimes I can allow myself to simply be … not that important. I would love to hear all about your priorities and importance, or lack thereof at gotonorton@gmail.com, and I hope that this will be a better than good week for you.

Change may cut Centennial Airport noise FAA moving some paths for departures By Deborah Grigsby
dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com The Federal Aviation Administration plans to change the way some planes depart Centennial Airport, and neighbors are hopeful it will reduce noise over residential areas. Airport executive director Robert Olislagers said the changes are a result of a two-year FAA study, called Area Navigation, designed to improve safety and efficiency of the airspace surrounding Denver International Airport, but also has benefits for those left on terra firma. “The change mostly affects aircraft departing to the north,” said Olislagers. “Those aircraft using an instrument departure will be required to gain altitude faster and
will be directed farther to the east of the airport, over the Cherry Creek State Park area, and that will most likely help cut some of the noise on takeoff.” Pilots would be given very precise way points over the area and then directed toward their intended destination. However, planes not using instrument procedures do not have to follow the new procedure. “Generally, the new flight path will impact those aircraft that operate commercially, such as charter jets,” said Olislagers. Among other changes, approaching aircraft will see the standard stepped-down descent replaced with a smoother, more stabilized rate of descent, enabling pilots to use less power, save fuel and reduce pollution. The study is part of the FAA’s effort to modernize the National Airspace System, the common net-
work of air navigation facilities and equipment paving the way for satellite-based navigation and better use of airspace capacity. Olislagers said the FAA changes will be implemented in two phases, with the first occurring on Nov. 15 and impacting only DIA. The second phase, which affects Centennial, will be implemented sometime next year. Centennial Airport is one of the busiest general aviation airports in the nation, with more than 11 million gallons of fuel pumped between five fixed-base operations, and more than 300,000 takeoffs and landings in 2011. The flight path changes follow an earlier announcement by Olislagers that the airport will soon install a series of noise monitoring devices in the surrounding area to collect data and better pinpoint troublesome areas.
John Lennon art stirs controversy Florida gadfly cries fraud about traveling collection By Deborah Grigsby
dgrigsby@ourcoloradonews.com For more than a decade, Gary Arseneau, a Florida-based artist, printmaker and self-proclaimed art scholar, has charged those behind the sale of the minimalist doodles by former Beatle John Lennon with fraud. In 1986, six years after Lennon was murdered, his widow, Yoko Ono, began releasing limited editions of her husband’s personal drawings in an attempt to establish him as one of the most important visual artists of his time. It’s with those reproductions, not Lennon’s work itself, that Arseneau takes issue. “The reason why the art is a fraud is simply that everything produced after 1980 is not original. John was dead—the dead don’t create art,” said Arseneau. “These are reproductions that have been colorized and altered by Yoko and others.” Arseneau insists Ono and the curators of a 120-piece John Lennon traveling collection, recently hosted at The Streets at SouthGlenn in Centennial, are misrepresenting the authenticity in an effort to bilk thousands of dollars out of unsuspecting collectors and fans. Collection curator Richard Horowitz, who has worked closely with the Lennon estate on the exhibit, said Arseneau is a pest. “He has harassed us for the last 1o years over this,” said Horowitz. “All of the items in the collection
Standing next to a signed serigraph reproduced from the original hand-written lyric sheet of John Lennon’s iconic song “Imagine,” Richard Horowitz, curator of the Lennon exhibit, assures potential buyers and collectors everywhere that pieces in the collection are authentic and properly documented as estateauthorized reproductions and limited print series. Photo by Deborah Grigsby are properly identified and we make it very clear that Yoko Ono has collaborated on many of these pieces.” But Arseneau says not clear enough. “People go in and they see Lennon’s art, and his music is playing in the background; they still have no idea if what they are buying is 100 percent John Lennon or something else — Yoko Ono is trying to rewrite history for profit.” Horowitz says the gallery is always up front about every piece sold, educating clients on each piece and its unique history. “People leave here knowing exactly what they’ve purchased,” said Horowitz. For Arseneau, the bottom line is that buyers need to know that Lennon’s original works were all done in
black and white and that anything with color is a collaborative piece under the supervision of Ono, and that limited edition prints must bear a number and original signature by the artist. But according to Horowitz, Arseneau misses the point. “Yoko Ono’s signature appears on many of the pieces to show they are authorized reproductions from the estate; we are really up front about all of this.” More than 3,000 people attended the three-day exhibit, Nov. 2 -4, hosted by Horowitz and Californiabased Pacific Edge Gallery. “There is one possibility I’m wrong about all this,” admitted Arseneau. “And that would be if John Lennon is still alive.”

Veterans Day ceremonies scheduled Littleton, Fort Logan among sites for recognition
monial wreath and flowers at a symbolic headstone, followed by the traditional 21-gun salute. An array of horn players will be stationed around the lake and play the echo version of Taps. When the Fort Logan ceremony ends, lunch will be served at Verle Huffman VFW Post 9644, 2680 W. Hampden Ave. The nation began honoring veterans in 1926 when Armistice Day was held for the first time to remember the event that ended the World War I and honor those who served. That is when the tradition began to hold the ceremony on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, the same time, day and month when the firing ended in World War I. In 1938, it was declared a national holiday. In its early history, Armistice Day was focused on honoring World War I veterans. In the early 1950s, Congressman Edwin Rees of Kansas proposed changing the name of the holiday to Veterans Day and making it a time to honor all those who served in the armed forces, and in 1954, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the bill, making Nov. 11 Veterans Day.

Man gets life term in murder By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com
c Enrique Amaya of Pontiac, Mich., will spend his life in prison for orchestrating the murder of Joaquin Lucero-Carrillo in Littleton, near the Englewood border. o “This case demonstrates the violence that accompanies large-scale narcotics trafficking,” U.S. Attorney Barbara L. nMcQuade said. “Dismantling these large drug organizations with lengthy prison ssentences is essential to protecting the safety of our communities.” Amaya was sentenced on Oct. 29 in efederal court in Detroit. The murder-for-hire plot began in Detroit and ended on June 10, 2010, with fLucero-Carillo dead in the doorway of his second-floor apartment in Parkland gSquare Apartments, 750 W. Belleview Ave., at the hands of Franklin Sierra-Rodriguez, also of Pontiac. Sierra-Rodriguez was captured in sHouston the next day and pleaded guilty to being part of the conspiracy. He was not, however, the brains behind the plot, gjust the hired gun. y The man who orchestrated the murder ewas Amaya, who was found guilty June 1 nof hiring Sierra-Rodriguez to kill LuceroCarrillo in an attempt to erase a $400,000 sdebt he owed cocaine dealers. His partner in crime, Jesus Daniel Medina-Meraz,
33, of Sheridan, pleaded guilty in April. Sierra-Rogriguez shot Lucero-Carrillo in front of a number of witnesses. LPD detectives followed leads back to the Detroit area and began to coordinate with the Detroit office of the Drug Enforcement Administration, which was conducting an investigation into Amaya’s drug activity. The two law-enforcement agencies worked together to identify suspects and piece together evidence. Prosecutors laid out how Amaya was the recipient of large shipments of cocaine from the Denver area to Pontiac, where he sold the drugs. When he fell into debt to his suppliers, including the victim, he hired Sierra-Rodriguez to murder Lucero-Carrillo and, along with several others, arranged for Sierra-Rodriguez’s transportation and other details. Sierra-Rodriguez was sentenced to 40 years, and Medina-Meraz to 32 years. Jose Alejandro Villalon-Espinoza, 24, of Pontiac, pleaded guilty to his role in the plot in January. Rafael Maravillas, 27, of Pontiac, did the same in April. Defendant Franklin Baquedano, 25, of Waterford, Mich., was acquitted, but he faces drug charges after testifying that he thought he was assisting in a narcotics delivery from Colorado, not a murder. All convicted defendants face lengthy prison sentences, including a mandatory life sentence for Amaya.

Two arrested in Littleton homicide Man, girl suspects in August slaying By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com Littleton police have arrested Teddy Puente, 37, and an unidentified girl in the August death of 66-year-old Walter Zucchetti. Through a tip, the Littleton Independent learned Zucchetti’s body had been discovered in his apartment on Aug. 13. The Arapahoe County Coroner’s Office confirmed Zucchetti’s death on Aug. 27, but has declined to release autopsy results. Spokeswoman Tamara Davis on Nov. 2 said the case is still open and pending toxicology and tissue studies. Damon Montroy manages the apartment complex where Zucchetti lived, near the intersection of Prince Street and Lake Avenue. He and a maintenance worker discovered the body after Zuc-
chetti’s brother called from New York to say he couldn’t contact the man. Montroy said he just got a quick look at Zucchetti from the waist down and could only see he was wearing boxer shorts and that there were no obvious injuries. “He just looked dead,” said Montroy in late August, adding that he had no idea how long Zucchetti had been that way. Montroy was out of town when Zucchetti’s brother called, so he couldn’t check on him for a couple days. Zucchetti had lived there alone for more than two years, said Montroy, and he didn’t have a car or a job. He was known to use a computer at Bemis Library and occasionally go “up the hill” to gamble, Montroy added. Both suspects are being held without bond on charges of first-degree murder, robbery and conspiracy to commit robbery. Puente, who was arrested Nov. 1, is being held at the Arapahoe County Jail. The juvenile, arrested Oct. 26, is at the Marvin J. Foote Youth Services Center in Centennial.

do. Kagan was appointed to District 3 in 2009, filling the vacancy left by Rep. Anne McGihon’s resignation, eventually winning a full term in 2010. He serves on the House Finance and Judiciary committees and has championed legislation to preserve low-income housing, and measures to assist Colorado school-based health centers. As for Kagan, education and jobs remain at the top of the priority list. He states that schools within the district are inadequate, and that
jobs are not growing fast enough. “We have to have the best schools, and we’re not there yet,” he said. “As for jobs, we’ve got to make sure our infrastructure, business environment and the education system are conducive for those to start or grow a business.” Kagan points to his successful business background as well as a resume that includes time as a flight instructor and a time defending indigents in Washington, D.C. Watson, a Colorado native, earned a bachelor’s degree in business with an emphasis in real estate from the University of Colorado-
Boulder in 1993. He spent time as a commercial real estate broker before launching his own business. He owns Northstar Commercial Properties as well as a number of other companies located primarily along the Front Range. During his campaign, Watson faced scrutiny over accusations he owed $279,000 in property taxes, a charge he denied. Calls made to Watson after the election were not returned. “I look forward to returning to office,” said Kagan. “I truly appreciate the opportunity to serve.”

said. “I don’t remember any of it, but they tell me they ran a catheter into an artery in my groin and up to the brain where a blood clot was blocking the flow of blood. They used the catheter to remove the clot and saved me. Six days later, I was well enough to go home.” Rimer, 80, said he feels great, he

Elijah pets Rosie the therapy dog Nov. 1 during a social skills class at Children’s Hospital Colorado Therapy Care in Littleton.

ntoinette Leflar had to wait five and a half years to hear her son say, “I love you.” “But he was a hugger,” she said of Max, now 7. Now he’s a fantastic talker, a supersmart kid with a great memory who is very affectionate and full of energy. A veritable whirlwind of energy, in fact, unless he’s focused, said his mom. “He’s always been a very chill, relaxed little boy,” said his mom. He’s learning how to manage all that energy and lots of other things in a class
for kids on the autism spectrum and others who need extra help with social and behavioral skills. “You have to remember that children on the spectrum are children first,” said Leflar. “Some people call them autistic children. I think they’re children with autism.” At Children’s Hospital Colorado Outpatient Specialty and Therapy Care in Littleton, a team of pediatric specialists makes sure Max and his five classmates are treated like kids first. But they also make sure they look at who they’re talking to, stay out of each others’ personal bubbles, use their “lion voices” or “mouse voices” when appropriate, have quiet bodies when their job is to wait, and be able to say how they feel and why. “I feel happy,” Max said during class on Nov. 1. “I went to school, and I talked, and I listened.” In short, the team teaches the kids
Rosie, one of the hospital’s Prescription Pet 4-legged volunteers, rests on Nov. 1.
things that come to most people naturally, but that these kids need extra help with. On Nov. 1, the kids learned something particularly important: Dogs have a bubble space, too. Rosie, a very patient, happy and huge St. Bernard, visited to help teach the children how to interact safely with dogs they don’t know. “Not all dogs are like Rosie,” said Beth McCarthy, Rosie’s “mom” and a volunteer with Prescription Pets. “She puts up with anything.” “Using Rosie, we will focus on nonverbal body language for pet safety in the community, but also translate this to people,” said Sabrina McIntire, occupational therapist. “We’ll talk about body language in that we need to face our body towards others when talking and interpreting facial expressions and emotions.” Little Audrey Chang’s body language screamed, “I’m terrified of this enormous dog.” But when it was her turn, she boldly stepped forward, looked right at McCarthy and asked if she could pet her dog, then gingerly reached out and conquered her fear — quite an impressive feat for the quiet little girl who is often reminded to use her “lion voice.” Max is overcoming his own challenges, said his mom. He’s learning how to interact with other kids and ask to play, and even how to wait in line. Max is what’s known as “twice exceptional,” which means he’s intellectually gifted despite his learning difficulties. In his case, he excels at visual/spatial activities like puzzles and geometric principles. “He finishes something so quickly, and then he has to wait,” she said. “And waiting is so hard for him.”
Great cause gala
Only the annual Children’s Hospital Gala would sell out of individual tickets more than two weeks out. Denver denizens dress in their fancy black-tie finery and come out in droves to support such a worthy cause — this time for the 35th year. Some attendees come for the entertainment — this year comedian Craig Ferguson of CBS’ “The Late Late Show” — others show up because the gala is among the top events of the season, and then the majority of the gala goers come to support such a great cause. The event, from 5:30 to 11:45 p.m. Saturday at the Hyatt Regency Convention Center, includes a live auction with a trip to the 55th annual Grammy Awards and a five-night Hawaiian vacation, a silent auction, dinner and dancing. Table sponsorships are still available. For more information, go to www.childrenscoloradofoundation. org/gala or call 720-777-1768. For 35 years, the Rocky Mountain community has contributed more than $25 million to Children’s Hospital Colorado through the Children’s Gala, and the event continues to be one of the largest annual fundraising events for the hospital.

By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@ourcoloradonews.com Creede Repertory Theatre packed up a fine-looking set for a Victorian living room, its playwright and most of its cast for the world premeire of “Harry the Great” and trucked it to Lone Tree last week, extending the run for another 10 days for a new audience — through Nov.11. It’s ready-made theater for the handsome new Lone Tree Arts Center, which brought in the busy mountain company from Creede last year also, when it opened. Steven Cole Hughes and Caitlin Wise were last year’s inept detectives in “Unecessary Farce.” Audiences are growing steadily, said director Lisa Grigsby Bates. Almost 60,000 people have come through the doors. “Harry the Great” is written by CRT’s Headwaters new Play Development program member John DiAntonio, who recently appeared as Chicago in Creede’s production of the Mark Twain story, “Is He Dead?” at the Arvada Center.
Joseph F. Wilson March 20, 1968 October 29, 2012
Joseph Frank Wilson went home October 29, 2012 to join his mother and other beloved ones in our Father’s house. The peace he now enjoys gives comfort to those of us left behind - we will miss you Joe. Joe was born on March 20, 1968 in Englewood CO to Annetta Shirley and Ronnie Wilson. Joe is survived by his wife Sandra Wilson; daughter Annetta; stepsons Timothy, Earl J, & Marcus Elam; father Ronnie Wilson; sister Sonya Allen; brother Gary Wilson; and various nieces and nephews. After proudly serving his country in the U.S. Air Force for five years following high school, Joe pursued his lifelong ambition in law enforcement by attending Indiana University in the study of criminal law, and later as a Colorado State Patrol Officer in Vail and Colorado Springs, a Police Officer in Englewood CO, and finally a Colorado Department of Corrections Parole Officer in Colorado Springs. Joe was known for his love of all sports especially the Broncos and Indiana Hoosiers. A loving husband and devoted father, Joe’s kindness and care for others was without bound. A big kid at heart, he was never more content than when on a Disney vacation or watching an animation with his daughter. A celebration of Joe’s life was held on Monday, November 5, 2012 in Colorado Springs CO. In lieu of flowers, contributions to a Trust Fund for his daughter Annetta D. Wilson, can be made at Chase Bank, N. Carefree & Powers Branch. Arrangements by: The Springs Funeral Services (719) 328-1793.

M. Tyler Horn portrays Eugen Sandow, Stephen Cole Hughes acts as Harry Robenstein, Kyra Koelling is Bess Rahner and Brian Kusic is Erik Weisz. The four make up the main cast of characters in “Harry the Great,” showing through Nov. 11 at Lone Tree Arts Center. Courtesy photo DiAntonio drew on actual historical characters for the well-reported 1893 Chicago World’s Fair, which has been the starting point for books, musicals and plays over the years: Harry Robenstein, a gambler, con man, fake spiritualist and magician (Steven Cole Hughes), is said to be suggested by Harry Houdini
as well. Fifi (Emily Van Fleet) carries the story of many young women who worked as “women of the evening” during the fair. Florenz Ziegfeld Jr. (Graham Ward) became a great Broadway impresario. Bert Williams (Cajardo Lindsey) was a black actor who worked with Ziegfield.
Eugen Sandow, “Sandow the Magnificent” (M. Tyler Horn is making his Denver debut ), was the father of today’s strongman-bodybuilders. Samantha Robenstein (Caitlin Wise) was an unconventional woman for the 1890s, who would go disguised as a man when it fit her purpose. Mix all these folks with a few other unsavory types and their plans and aspirations, and the audience comes out with a complicated set of stories that interweave cleverly and provide frequent chuckles. The cast is well-polished by Larry Hecht, a skilled actor and director. Costumes and lighting are well planned and the touch of a ragtime pianist playing at the side of the stage throughout (Evangelos Spanos) just ties everything together in a particularly pleasing way.
Upcoming Holiday Art Show will be glass act Maggie Heard, president of the area Glass Artists Fellowship, has announced that the group would participate in Echter’s Holiday Art Show for the ninth year.

Bruins master beam, finish fourth overall
-By Scott Stocker sports@ourcoloradonews.com
THORNTON - The balance beam has long been considered the most difficult eevent in girls gymnastics. But that was the apparatus that caused the least amount of problems for the Cherry Creek squad at last Friday’s Class 5A state gymnastics meet at Thornton High School. - Cherry Creek fashioned a meet high 46.75 on the beam. But when the total points were tabulated after the other three events, the Bruins had to settle for fourth-place in the team standings. yBroomfield won the title with a 187.625, followed by Fort Collins, 183.85, Overdland, 183.7 and the Bruins, 182.8. There was ample reason to celebrate t the event as Cherry Creek’s Sela Buted came away with the third-place ribbon, -scoring a 9.65 . She was edged by champion Lauren Glover of Rocky Mountain, who scored a 9.7, and Loveland’s Claire Hammen. Hammen who also scored a 9.7, but was given second via the event tie-breaker. “Sticking six-for-six on our beam was just great,” Buted said. “We worked as a team and put everything we had into our efforts. All cheers go to all of us. I just wanted to do the best I could, not make many mistakes and work hard. Third on balance beam, 9.65? Certainly nice, but I wish a couple of my teammates could have been on the awards stand with me.” Following Sela on the event in scoring was Alaina Bolton (9.5), Olivia SolowNiederman (9.4), Riley Malloy (9.1) and Lauren Niedzinski (9.025). Bolton also qualified for the event final, but dropped in the scoring with a 9.15 and had to settle for 14th. Rocky Mountain’s Keri Peel (38.925) and Lauren Glover (38.7), placed one-two respectively in the all-around, followed by Hammen (38.375). Taylor Molliconi of Mountain Range (38.3), Erick Pollack of Fort Collins (38.225) and Gabby Maiden of Broomfield (37.825) rounded out the field. “The girls came together this weekend,” said Cherry Creek coach Melissa Holmberg. “We were surprised to be fourth with our 182.8. With all the 180’s, that’s the highest the scores have been in years. We had to stay focused and the girls did. Yes, they were on the beam, but it would have been nice if we could have scored as high in our other events.” Bolton, who reached the event finals in all four events, finished seventh in the all-around with a 37.6. It was a score that missed a trip to the awards stand by .225 of a point as she placed behind Broomfield’s Gabby Maiden. She also finished 14th on the balance beam (9.15) and 13th on vault (9.375). “It was a really great experience and I

The regional volleyball tournaments went pretty much according to form last weekend, and for several local teams, that was a good thing. In Class 5A, Cherry Creek and Heritage advanced to the state tournament after winning its respective regional tournament. The Bruins (20-5) are the No. 4-seed in the 12-team field. They defeated Rampart 3-0 and Rock Canyon 3-0 to reach state, where they play in Pool IV against No. 5

It was our best meet all year and I’m just proud of what we’ve been able to do. We were able to prove ourselves.” While the big ribbons were missing, Cherry Creek managed to send SolowNiderman and Niedzinski into event finals. Solow-Niederman was 11th on floor (9.45), Niedzinski, 14th on vault (9.3). “I had one of my best meets and it was just awesome,” Solow-Niderman said. “The beam was just great for all of us, 6-for-six sticks! Wow. Our key was to stay focused and try to hit all our routines. We just wanted to help each of us make the other better and that’s what happened.” Added Niedzinski, “I had a lot of stress, but my teammates believed in me and
that helped a lot. I’m proud of my vault, too, and I think that stood out for me. It was just a fine meet for all of us.” It was a tough meet for Heritage as the Eagles of coach Karen Griebel only scored 170.125 points to finish 11th in the 12-team field. Kaela Schandle finished 24th in the all-around to lead the Eagles while Rachel Siekmeier followed in 26th, scoring 36.15. Carlee Reava finished 46th in the all-around (32.175) and Gigi Gehrke was 47th (31.95). Siekmeier had the highest individual finish on the various events, finishing 20th on beam (9.35). She also finished 22nd on floor (9.375) while Schandle also finished 22nd on vault (9.425). No other Eagles placed among the top 25 in any of the remaining individual events.

Should Cherry Creek, co-champions of the Centennial League with Eaglecrest, advance out of its pool, a semifinal match against undefeated and topseeded Doherty is likely. The Spartans defeated the Bruins in the Cherry Creek Bruin Classic 2-0 (25-13, 25-18) back on Sept. 15. Heritage (18-7) is the No. 11 seed and will play in Pool II against No. 2 Eaglecrest and No. 7 Grandview. The Eagles earned their state berth by winning their regional tournament over Monarch 3-0 and Pine Creek 3-0. The Eagles’ first match on Nov. 9 at the Denver Coliseum
is against Eaglecrest. In Class 4A, Valor Christian played its first home matches of the season last week, after playing the entire regular season on the road due to damage suffered in the gymnasium after a water-line break. The Eagles (18-7) defended their home court, defeating Palmer Ridge 3-1 and Frederick 3-0, to earn a spot in the state tournament. Valor Christian in the No. 5-seed in the 12-team field and will play in Pool IV. Its first match is scheduled for 9:30 a.m. Nov. 9 against No. 9 Ponderosa.

Willingham, McNeil carry Bruins past Bulldogs Cherry Creek to host top-seeded ThunderRidge on Nov. 9 By Steve Smith
sports@ourcoloradonews.com BRIGHTON -By all accounts, Cherry Creek’s Daryl McNeil had quite a night Nov. 2 in his team’s 49-21 win over Brighton High School in the opening round of the Class 5A state playoffs. McNeil, a senior, ran for 189 yards on just eight carries and scored three touchdowns. So it begs the question. What sort of an evening did fellow running back Tahj Willingham have? He ran for 200 yards on 18 tries and scored the other four Bruins’
touchdowns. “I can’t give enough credit to our Oline and our coaches,” Willingham said. “They had the confidence in me and No. 9 (McNeil). We had a lot of success, thanks to our O-line.” Cherry Creek (6-4), seeded 17th in the 32-team field, rolled up more than 560 yards of offense against the No. 16 Bulldogs. That was more than enough to balance Ethan Trujillo’s 402-yard, threetouchdown effort for Brighton. Michael Goward caught two of those scoring tosses, and Collin Tabor caught the other one. “I just read and react,” Willlingham said. “I see the hole. I hit it. Full speed. Football is a simple game.” Cherry Creek quarterback Luke Papilion completed 12-of-23 passes for 140 yards. He spread out his completions among eight receivers. Hunter Burton
caught three passes for 43 yards, and Mike McCauley caught two for 40 yards. Brighton’s top rusher was Nicholas Garcia, who was held to 26 yards on just seven carries. “It’s not the best we can play,” Willingham said. “Our O-line was opening up holes at the point of attack. Brighton is a real physical team. I’m sore. I give them a lot of credit.” The Bruins move into the second round and a match against top-seeded ThunderRidge, which beat Westminster 70-28 in the first round. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. Nov. 9 at the Stutler Bowl. “Whoever wants to play us, we’ll be ready to work,” Willingham said.

State football playoff capsules Class 5A No. 1 ThunderRidge (9-1) vs. No. 17 Cherry Creek (6-4) @ Stutler Bowl, 7 p.m. Nov. 9 Game plan: Cherry Creek opened the 5A playoffs on the road and looked impressive in a 49-21 win over No. 16 Brighton. Tahj Willingham gained 200 yards and scored four touchdowns, while backfield mate Daryl McNeil gained 189 yards and scored three touchdowns. They’ll host the top-seeded Grizzlies this week, and the defense will have its hands full. ThunderRidge averages over 300 yards rushing per game - 302.9 to be exact - and score nearly 40 points (39.8) a game. ThunderRidge quarterback Brody Westmoreland has thrown for 1,452 yards with 13 touchdowns and eight interceptions. Running back Steve Ray has gained 1,349 yards on 232 carries (5.8 yards per carry) and scored 18 touchdowns. Jake Hand has nearly 900 yards on the season (856) and has scored 10 touchdowns. He’s also caught 21 passes for 439 yards with three more touchdowns. Mark Hopper (23-506-5) and Jesse Kreiger (20-284-4) are two other big receiving targets for Westmoreland. Sam Pauling leads the defense with 81 tackles (41 solo). Bottom line: The Bruins can score points to hang with the Grizzlies but they can’t trade touchdowns with the explosive ThunderRidge offense. Cherry Creek’s defense will need to force a couple of turnovers to give its team a chance at pulling the upset. No. 5 Arapahoe (9-1) vs. No. 21 Horizon (7-3) @ North Stadium, 7 p.m. Nov. 9 Game plan: According to Arapahoe coach Mike Campbell, Horizon runs a similar offensive system as the Warriors. Horizon quarterback Auston Stackhouse has completed 85-of-172 passes for
1,556 yards with 21 touchdowns and just seven interceptions on the season. In the backfield, Dante Chand leads the way with 692 yards on 119 carries and six touchdowns. Bryce Killmon is another player out of the backfield to keep an eye on; he’s gained 441 yards on 72 carries and scored a pair of touchdowns. Dustin Rivas is the team’s top receiver with 33 catches for 752 yards and 10 touchdowns. Class 2A No. 1 Kent Denver (10-0) @ No. 9 Brush (8-2), 1 p.m. Nov. 10 Game plan: After largely cruising through the regular season, top-seeded Kent Denver found itself tied at 21-21 with No. 16 Strasburg last week to open the 2A playoffs. While the Sun Devils did ultimately win by two scores, they now face a tough road challenge. Brush, winners of six straight, score just over 40 points per game (40.7) and gain nearly 300 yards (298.5) on the ground. When they do pass, quarterback Mitch Tormohlen is efficient; he’s thrown just one interception on the season against 16 touchdown passes. He’s completed 57 of his 121 attempts for 1,061 yards. On the ground, Kyle Rosenbrock leads the charge with 1,496 yards on just 169 carries (8.9 yards per carry) and has scored 21 touchdowns. Michael Gutierrez (47-359-3), Jake Morrow (54-360-5), Tormohlen (51-266-4) and Eddie Erives (46-205-2) are players to keep an eye on. Defensively for Brush, Morrow has a team-most 61 tackles (47 solo), while Randy Baker has 44 total tackles. Bottom line: Kent Denver nearly gave up as many points last week as they had the entire regular season. They’ll have to shore up things defensively against a tough Brush squad that will have its home supporters behind them on what figures to be a cold afternoon.

Bruins outlast Raptors in double OT Cherry Creek advanced to state semifinals with win By Alex K.W. Schultz
sports@ourcoloradonews.com GREENWOOD VILLAGE - The scene that unfolded after the Nov. 3 Class 5A boys soccer state quarterfinal between Cherry Creek and Eaglecrest said it all. Several of the Raptors lying face down on the Stutler Bowl turf. All of the Bruins huddled together and jumping up and down in the southeast corner of the pitch. One side of the stadium roaring in rapturous delight; the other monasterylike. It is amazing what one goal can do. In this case, that one goal kept alive the dream of winning a state title for one team while erasing it for another. Cherry Creek sophomore Kyle Ericson’s goal off an assist from team captain Miguel Jaime in double overtime lifted the No. 9 Bruins to a 2-1 victory over the 17th-seeded Raptors, capping a hardfought match that required all of 112 minutes to determine the victor. “That was a great game, the way a high school soccer game should be. No one wanted to quit. No one wanted to give in,” said Cherry Creek coach Chelo Curi, whose blonde-headed boys faced fourth-seeded Smoky Hill on Nov. 7 in a semifinal match, the result of which was unavailable at press time. But, before the Bruins (11-5-2) could even begin to think about a rematch against Smoky Hill - which defeated them 3-1 back in early October - they had to take care of business against Eaglecrest.
In the eighth minute of double overtime, Jaime corralled a pass, weaved through a quartet of Raptors and slid a pass to Ericson, who poked the ball into the right corner of the goal. The sophomore was immediately swarmed by his teammates and student spectators who poured from the bleachers onto the field. “It was exhilarating, just unbelievable,” Ericson said. “(Jaime) played me a fantastic ball. All I had to do was put it in the net.” Ericson had put a shot in the net that appeared to give the Bruins a 2-12 lead with 15 minutes to go in regulation, but his celebration was cut short when he was called offside after receiving a pass from Jared Alswang. This time, in overtime, there was no question about it: The sophomore’s goal was true, and the party was on. “This game was very exciting, very rewarding,” Curi said. “This team has really started playing well as of late.” After a scoreless first half that was controlled by both teams’ defenses, the Bruins put the first tally on the board in the 65th minute when Jaime gathered a loose ball near the Raptors’ (12-5-1) goal and tapped it in for the score. The ball had ricocheted off Eaglecrest goalkeeper Blend Avdili after a shot from Ikaika Nichols. Six minutes later, the Raptors’ Symon Fabbricatore broke free and crossed a pass from the right side to Nelson Merino, who scored the equalizer with a shot into the right corner of the net. Neither team was able to score in the final minutes of regulation, setting up the dramatics. “It was a fight, a battle,” Ericson said.

Sun Devils oust Tigers from 3A playoffs Evans nets two goals for Kent Denver By Jonathan Maness
jmaness@ourcoloradonews.com BROOMFIELD - Sometimes it helps to have a little luck on your side, and that was the case for the Kent Denver soccer team last Friday. The fifth-seeded Sun Devils found scoring hard to come by in the Class 3A quarterfinals match with No. 4 Holy Family, but Cole Evans netted two goals to help the Sun Devils edge the Tigers 2-1 and advance to the semifinals. “It comes in waves and we rode a cou-
ple of the waves and had some luck,” Kent Denver’s coach Aran Smith said. “Cole hit some great shots and it broke our way.” The Sun Devils will now face Faith Christian on Wednesday in the semifinals (results unavailable at press time); last season the Eagles beat Classical Academy 1-0 to win the state title. It will be the second year in a row that Kent Denver has advanced to the state semifinals. “We need a good team effort like we did (Friday) and I think we have the passion to make it,” Evans said. After a scoreless first half, Smith told his team at halftime that their goals were going to come from free kicks and that was the case in the second half. Evans broke the scoring drought three minutes into the half when took advantage of a miscommunication on the de-
Kent Denver’s Daniel Reilly heads the ball during the quarterfinal game against Holy Family last Friday, Pam Wagner fense and rebounded a shot to get Kent Denver on board. The Tigers scored their lone goal midway through the second half when Preston Arguello broke past the defense and got a shot past Sun Devils’ keeper Mark Siegel. However, Lewis sealed the win for Kent Denver at 73-minute mark after drilling a free kick from 50 yards out that sailed into the top left corner of the net. “We knew they were really dangerous on those (free kicks),” Holy Family’s
coach Kathy Hagan said. The Tigers did have several scoring chances throughout the game, but couldn’t capitalize. Patrick Borer’s header was stopped by Siegel; the keeper also stopped shots by Brandon Floyd and Arguello in the second half and Nate Dalton’s attempt also bounced off of the crossbar. “We have made a commitment to playing good defense all year. The defense bent (Friday), but it didn’t break,” Smith said.
Top-seeded Sun Devils survive test in first round of 2A football playoffs By Craig Harper
sports@ourcoloradonews.com Kent Denver’s opener in the Class 2A playoffs was far from vintage Sun Devils football. To wit: double-figures in penalties, more yards passing than rushing, 35 points allowed compared to 50 in the entire regular season. “It wasn’t our best game,’’ admitted veteran coach Scott Yates. “We didn’t play the kind of traditional, disciplined football that we normally play.’’ But at this point, all that really matters is the bottom line for the unbeaten and top-seeded Sun Devils: a 4935 home victory over a gritty No. 16 seed Strasburg and a quarterfinal matchup at No. 9 Brush. “That’s a good team from a very good league, and we knew they were good,’’ Yates said of Strasburg, a Patriot League team that brought a 5-4 record with all four losses to playoff teams into the contest. “We certainly didn’t take them lightly. “They just kept coming back. It really was two tough teams as far as character is concerned and guys not giving up.’’ Kent Denver (10-0) needed a boost from its overlooked passing offense to overtake the Indians, who led 21-14 with 50 seconds left in the first half. Four big passes helped the Sun Devils score two straight touchdowns - one with 10.5 seconds left in the half to tie the game, then a 38-yard scoring strike from Joey Matarazzo to Brian Boatman to go up for good almost halfway through the third quarter. Matarazzo finished 9-of-15 passing for a season-high 208 yards (his previous best was 145), including a 52-yard touchdown to Matt Pettyjohn with 2:14 left in the third quarter, the first of two Kent Denver TDs that answered Strasburg scores that brought the Indians back to within
seven points. Pettyjohn caught four passes for 118 yards and Boatman gained 73 yards on three receptions. Kent Denver averaged 78.9 yards passing in the regular season, and Matarazzo said this “probably’’ was his best game throwing the football. “And that’s because the line gave me a lot of protection. I owe it all to the line and the receivers. The wide receivers caught the ball and made the extra yards.’’ Strasburg’s emphasis on containing the Sun Devils’ running game helped, too. Kent Denver averaged 266 yards on the ground, and had to work to gain 203 on 33 carries. But the Devils did get touchdown runs of 25 yards by Brannon Jones (75 yards total) and 22 by tailback Jaden Franklin (118 yards), and gained 123 yards rushing in the second half. “They did a better job of stopping our good tailback a little bit, so we were able to capitalize on throwing the ball a little bit,’’ Yates said. “We just haven’t had to throw that much. We’ve had some games where we’ve gotten so far ahead so early.’’ Strasburg, a run-oriented team, got 176 yards and two touchdowns passing by freshman quarterback Mitchell
Martin, who replaced injured senior Glenn Wallace after the second game. The Indians also rushed for 241 yards, led by sophomore Jacob Smith’s 187 yards and two touchdowns. Smith often took direct snaps from “wildcat’’ formation. The Indians converted a fourth down en route to their second and third touchdowns, the second drive covering 70 yards in 17 plays consuming almost eight minutes. They also scored the third TD after Matarazzo’s lone interception, striking on a 59-yard pass to Damien Chavarria that included a missed tackle just past midfield. “What’s the saying: They get to play with house money,’’ Yates said. “We told our guys we would see everything.’’ But fourth-down tries backfired twice in the second half for Strasburg. The Indians came up short at their 38yard line, and Kent made them pay on the next play with Boatman’s 38-yard touchdown catch. And, with Strasburg trailing 49-35 and facing fourth-and-8 from the Kent Denver 38, Matarazzo forced a fumble that the Devils’ Chantz Tanner recovered with 7:08 left to play. Tanner also recovered a fumble to set up Johnson’s 25-yard TD. It’s on to the quarterfinals for the Sun Devils and a rematch of sorts.

Pageant winner has high hopes Wiley takes crown in state contest
R

By Jennifer Smith jsmith@ourcoloradonews.com She’s 5’10” and not afraid to wear heels, proving Amanda Wiley will be a fearless competitor for Miss USA 2013. The Littleton resident was crowned Miss Colorado USA on Oct. 8 during a pageant at Union Colony Civic Center in Greeley. “I was so emotional,” said Wiley. “All I could hear was my dad yelling and some of my friends screaming.” The win culminates a seven-year journey and a lifelong dream for Wiley. She met Miss New Mexico in third grade, when she was just a little girl who loved to dress up even to go to the grocery store and often raided her mom’s makeup. From that moment, she knew what she wanted to be when she grew up. “I just thought she was so cool,” said Wiley. “She was so beautiful and intelligent.” Her mom put the kibosh on kid pageants but fully supported her daughter’s efforts once she turned 18. Now 25, Wiley is proud she stuck with it for those years in between. “I’m really proud that I stuck with it, because it’s very easy to quit, and it shocks me to think that I’ve finally arrived,” she said. “It was all worth it.” Of course, those years weren’t all about pageantry. Wiley graduated from the University of New Mexico with a major in English and a minor in journalism. She went on to help start a nonprofit in Colorado Springs that supports scholarships for inline skating, a sport that many people love their whole lives but can’t pursue collegiately. “We didn’t want their dreams to end just because they made the decision to go to college,” she said. She arrived in Littleton two years ago, appreciating its quaint, small-town feel that reminded her of her New Mexico home. “After a lot of soul-searching, I decided I didn’t want to be in Colorado Springs anymore,” she said. “I moved to Littleton, and I’m loving life.” Today she’s a public-relations professional who loves nothing more than settling in for the evening with brownies, milk and a movie, or dressing up and going out to a comedy club. That simple life could change for her soon, and not just because she’s Miss Colorado. One of the perks of the title is being able to choose from an array of college scholarships, and there’s one in particular that makes her eyes light up: New York Film Academy. “I want to be a businesswoman, and I love my job,” she said. “But presented with the opportunity, I’m not

sure I could turn it down.” It’s easy to imagine the confident young woman fulfilling her dreams of acting, modeling or even broadcasting. Right now, she’s focused on representing her title to the fullest, making appearances and supporting the cause of breast-cancer research - Susan G. Komen for the Cure is a partner of the national pageant. “Part of my mission is to raise awareness about a cause that could affect me or people I care about, my close friends,” she said, adding that her grandmother and great-aunt are survivors. She also intends to put a positive face on the state during the televised national pageant next summer. “It’s been a really hard year for Colorado,” she said. “I think in times like these, people take pride in the little things. … We can’t change the world, but if we can make our part of the world better, that’s our job.” For more information, visit www.misscoloradousa. com.
