Warriors aim to rise above Arapahoe’s Class of 2014 includes Claire Davis
By Jennifer Smith

T
he message the Arapahoe High School Warriors Class of 2014 is sending to the community as they graduate is that they refuse to be defined by tragedy. “Needless to say, this has been a very unique experience for all of us, as we have experienced true heartbreak,” said Hannah Bailey, class vice president, during her opening remarks at the May 22 commencement ceremony at Littleton Public Schools Stadium. Instead, they want to make their mark on the world by demonstrating how they can rise above it, while carrying out the wish that Claire Davis’ parents have for all of them. “(We) sincerely hope that as you unfold and find meaning in all of this, you continue to realize kindness, compassion, forgiveness and a conscious commitment to love one another,” they wrote in a letter to the students they will now and forever be entwined with. On Dec. 13 of last year, senior Karl Pierson shot Claire and them himself. He died instantly, but Claire battled for her life for eight days before succumbing. Though her classmate cut
short Claire’s life, he couldn’t take away her education, her success or her seat, saved for her between Christopher Davis and Riley Dechiro. Two of Claire’s friends accepted her diploma on behalf of the Davis family. Victor Pierce, who offered the welcoming remarks, said he has learned the things Claire’s parents hoped during his four years at AHS. “You can make a difference in someone’s life,” he said. “Here I found a second home, a home away from home.” Catherine Roche, keynote speaker, said they will always understand each other better than anyone else, but she’ll never forget the outpouring of support they got from others, as well. “Even though we might not have appreciated it at first, we are all better for your commitment to us,” said Catherine Roche. “We have come out on the other side stronger as a class, as a school and as a community.” She told her classmates that while they’ve had a lot of success academically and athletically, their biggest accomplishment was overcoming their fear and reclaiming their school. “I’m excited to get out in the world and show what it means to be a Warrior and what it means to be Warrior Strong,”
Northern Arapaho Tribal Elder Mark Soldier Wolf speaks to the Arapahoe High School Class of 2014 May 22 at Littleton Public Schools Stadium. Photo by Ryan Boldrey she said. Principal Natalie Pramenko hit some of the high points of what exactly it does mean: Members of the Class of 2014 were awarded $18 million in scholarships, and they sat for 844 advanced-placement exams. Their dropout rate is less than 1 percent, and they raised more than $12,000 for charity during Warrior Week. A dozen of them are headed into the military. “You showed unwavering leadership during this very challenging semester,” Pramenko said. “You have shown us all
what it really means to be Warrior Strong. You are special, and I will never, ever forget you.” She introduced Mark Soldier Wolf, the only living elder to have helped cement the school’s relationship in 1993 with his Arapaho tribe on the Wind River Indian Reservation in Wyoming. The elders decided AHS was a place deserving of their respect and endorsed the school’s “Arapahoe Warrior” mascot, which was designed by Arapaho artist Wilbur Antelope. “I’m so deeply proud of you, because I know the challenges that you’ve faced, and I’m
willing to stand on your behalf wherever you go,” he told the graduates. Roche gave voice to the hardest lesson the Class of 2014 had to learn. “If I’ve learned anything this year, it’s that life is short and opportunities are fleeting, so we have to seize them while we can,” said Roche.

Food is foundation of bridge to future As a family approaches the stand, Monse Hines smiles and offers: “Do you want a sample?” “No,” Greg Elliott says. “We know it’s good.” He looks at his wife. “Two zucchini, two hots?” He glances at the small container on the table. “And a thing of this stuff.” “OK,” Monse says. “Thirteen dollars.” “Oh,” Greg says. “Give us one more of each.” The “each” is a pupusa, a traditional El Salvadoran food the size of a small tortilla made of corn masa filled with various ingredients — in this case, beans or zucchini, corn chile poblano and mozzarella or the “hot” mirasol roasted peppers. The “stuff” is curtido, a pickled cabbage slaw, also from El Salvador. “We tried them last summer,” Greg says, “and we really got hooked on them.” And, adds his wife, Danielle, there’s Monse (pronounced Mohn-seh). “She’s very sweet.” Monse Hines is sweet. She is small with earnest brown eyes and long, brown hair casually pulled into a ponytail. She wears faded jeans with a blush pink blouse and a silver necklace with a medallion of Mary, Joseph and the baby Jesus. Her nails are bluntly cut, no polish. Her smile is friendly and easy, like the conversation with her customers, many of them regulars at this farmers’ market. But don’t be fooled. Monse Hines, 34, is bold and brave, too — so much so that she made her entrepreneurial dream come true, one small, risky step at a time. And she did it despite being a newcomer to this country, this language, this culture. In a few short years, she has built a business that could be her family’s future. In the process, she has firmly cemented the roots of her El Salvadoran home into the foundation of her new one — adding yet another cultural ingredient to the melting-pot land we live in. “I think we all have the ability to come out ahead,” she says, intently, in Spanish.
“Solo se necesita un sueño.” All you need is a dream. Flavored with heaps of determination. “No existe la suerte,” she says. “Cada quien se hace la suerte.” Luck doesn’t exist. Each person makes his own luck. Monse should know. She was born in a Salvadoran town so small it doesn’t have a stoplight and there are few cars, anyway. Her parents taught in a high school in a nearby city, about half the size of Colorado Springs, where she lives now with her Army husband and two daughters. She met her husband in Germany, where she had traveled for a yearlong exchange program while in college. She wanted to learn German, so she sold her car and just about everything she owned to finance the trip. Friends took her to an Oktoberfest, and while she was dancing, Timothy Hines, stationed at a nearby Army base, began talking to her in English. “I asked him why he was talking to me in English — we are in Germany,” Monse remembers, with a smile. Three months later, they flew home to his family in Texas and married on Thanksgiving Day. They celebrate their 10th anniversary this year. It was in 2011 — Tim was deployed for a year in Afghanistan — that Monse’s dream emerged. Her sister took her to a Whole Foods. She recalls the wonder. “Everything was so pretty,” she says. “There, my vision started — a healthy product in this supermarket.” After deciding that her pupusas and curtido would be gluten-free and use only organic and non-genetically modified
ingredients, she began researching on the Internet: How to get a license to sell a food product. How to make a label. How to package according to health department regulations. Who had the best prices. Everything had to be bought in small quantities because there was little money to invest — she and Tim had decided they would not take out loans. Each month, Monse would decide how much she could afford to spend. Maybe $100 one month. She needed a Web page? Maybe $10 more another month for that. Neighbors and family helped her navigate the English language and fill out paperwork. Her mother-in-law designed her label. “We all have these angels who help us,” Monse says. Then she won an audience at a Whole Foods in Colorado Springs. And, in June 2012, her curtido, under the name Monse’s Taste of El Salvador, first appeared on the store’s shelves. The pupusas followed two months later. “No sé como explicarlo,” she says. I don’t know how to explain it. “To know that a company so big wants your products — it’s like being in a dreamland.” Tim got home in time to make the first delivery. He was thrilled. “She decided `I’m going to do this’ and she did,” he says. “I was proud to come home and share this thing that was hers.” He describes how, for Monse, food from her country was a way to introduce herself to families in the places they lived. “She would make something from El Salvador and nobody else would have it and it was something she could share.” As a business, it does the same, opening a door between cultures. The niche “is hers and she can claim it — ‘This is how my mom and my grandma made it and I’ll use your ingredients to make something from my home,’” Tim says. “I think it’s really cool.” These days, Monse has one employee to help her make about 7,000 pupusas a week. They work from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
out of a commercial kitchen space that is shared with five other entrepreneurs. “We divide the cost so we can all survive,” Monse says. And she buys her produce from Pueblo and Colorado Springs farmers, so that the circle of local enterprise is complete. Her products can be found in Whole Foods in Colorado Springs, Highlands Ranch, Southglenn and Belmar, and soon in a Natural Grocers in Colorado Springs. The University of Colorado in Boulder buys about 4,000 pupusas a week to sell in its cafeterias. “I can’t believe that this has happened to me,” Monse says. “I am grateful to God and to the support from this country. As a woman, too, I feel as if I’ve been able to better myself, that there are no barriers.” The Army has relocated Tim to Oklahoma for three years, starting in mid-July. But they have decided Monse and the girls will remain here. They will travel back and forth to see each other. The business, they hope, will be their work after Tim retires. “We have to make the sacrifice,” Monse says. “Si Dios quiere” — if God wills it, “the business can give us a better future for our daughters.” A customer approaches Monse’s stand at a recent farmers’ market in Highlands Ranch. “Can I try one?” the woman asks. “Which one is this?” “Black bean,” Monse says, as she slices the pupusa that has been heating on the pan and tops it with a spoonful of curtido. “Excellent,” the woman says, after a bite. “You’re here every week?” One more sale. One more convert. One more step toward a future built on a taste of the past. Ann Macari Healey’s column about people, places and issues of everyday life appears every other week.

Coroner stepping down after five terms Commissioners approve promoting from within to replace Dobersen By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@colorado communitymedia.com Longtime Arapahoe County Coroner Michael Dobersen has announced his retirement effective June 2, after serving five terms in the office. First elected as a Republican in 1993, Dobersen hinted during his 2010 campaign that it would likely be his last. He told Colorado Community Media he wasn’t even sure he wanted to run again at that time. “On the one side, it’s obviously a stressful position,” he said. “Sometimes when I get up in the middle of the night to go to a crime scene, I think gosh, I’d like to be retired. But on the other side of the coin, this is the best job I’ve ever had.”
Dobersen has been a rarity among county coroners, having earned his medical degree from the University of Miami (Ohio). Because he’s a licensed medical pathologist, term limits didn’t apply to him in Arapahoe County. He ran five successful Dobersen campaigns, although he switched his party affiliation back to Democrat in 2006. Dobersen asked the Arapahoe County Board of Commissioners to appoint his second in command, Dr. Kelly Lear-Kaul, to serve out the remainder of his term. Sheriff Dave Walcher also endorsed her, and they did so on May 21. Nancy Doty, board chair, said Lear-Kaul is well qualified to serve, being a certified forensic pathologist. “She is well respected in the coroner’s office,
in Arapahoe County and within the forensic pathology community, and we are confident in her ability to lead the men and women of the coroner’s office,” she said in a news release. The board agreed to pay her an annual salary of $220,000, more than the minimum of $87,000, because of her qualifications. She will perform many of the hundreds of autopsies that go through the office each year. Last year, the county investigated 2,664 deaths and did 450 autopsies. Also last year, the coroner’s office was nationally accredited for the first time, becoming one of just four counties in the state and 77 in the nation. Lear-Kaul joined the office in 2004. She earned her undergraduate degree in biology, biochemistry and molecular biology from Cornell College and her doctorate from the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center School of Medicine.
She serves on a variety of boards and committees, including the Colorado State Child Fatality Prevention Review Team, the Sudden Unexpected Death in Childhood Medical and Investigative Advisory Board, the TriCounty Healthcare Coalition and the Arapahoe County Narcotic Prescription Drug Abuse Working Group. She is also an assistant professor in the pathology department at the UCHSC. “I want to thank the board for their consideration and support” said Lear-Kaul, who will be sworn in during a ceremony at 3:15 p.m. on May 30. “In our field, we find it is important to have a forensic pathologist serving in the role of the coroner, as we feel that expertise provides a better service to the citizens of Arapahoe County. This has been the standard for the last 30 years, and I look forward to continuing that great tradition.”

Local veterans: Never forget Memorial Day isn’t just another day off By Jennifer Smith
jsmith@colorado communitymedia.com
It’s not just about the barbecues. That was the message local veterans really wanted visitors to Littleton’s World War II Memorial on May 26 to hear. “Memorial Day is solely for those who died serving in uniform,” said Jack Woodman, commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Pat Hannon Post No. 4666. Those people include U.S. Navy Seal Danny Dietz, who graduated from Heritage High School in 1999. Six years later, the Navy Seal and two of his comrades died on a mountaintop in Afghanistan in a gunbattle against Taliban fighters. The only survivor, Marcus Luttrell, recounts in his book, “Lone Survivor,” the staggering bravery Dietz and the others displayed, never giving up until their last breaths despite being mortally wounded. A movie based on the book was released last Christmas. The portion of South Santa Fe Drive that runs through Littleton is named for Dietz, and a statue memorializes him in Berry Park. Pat Hannon, for whom Littleton’s VFW post is named, is another brave Littletonite, the first to die in World cn War II.

grandchildren, so that they might know the sacrifices made by the more than 100 million who have died on the battlefield throughout America’s history. “They didn’t go to war because they loved fighting,” said Ed Pietsch, commander of the American Legion Post 103. “They felt called to be part of something larger than themselves. … We must always remember that freedom is not free.”

School funding measures signed into law Hundreds of millions of dollars to fund programs and construction By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com In front of a group of school children who are just starting to grasp basic arithmetic, Gov. John Hickenlooper on May 21 signed into law a pair of complex, multimillion dollar school finance measures. The new laws will allow a state school finance system that was significantly strained by recession-era budget cuts to grow by nearly $500 million. The cash infusion will fund several areas of K-12 resources, including school construction and preschool, kindergarten and English language learner programs. “We’re trying to make sure that each one of you guys gets every single advantage, every single chance, because your success is the future of this state,” Hickenlooper said during a bill signing that was held inside Aurora’s Ponderosa Elementary School. A major K-12 funding piece comes from the Student Success Act. The legislation provides $20 million for programs that target children who are struggling to read and $53 million for school construction, with $40 million of that going toward construction in rural areas — the latter funding coming from
Amendment 64-backed retail marijuana revenue. An additional $3 million will go toward financial transparency efforts that are aimed at allowing taxpayers to see how the new money is being reported and spent. The funding includes a $110 million buy down of the so-called “negative factor” — recession-era funding cuts that slashed about $1 billion from the state’s K-12 budget. The governor also signed into law the annual school finance act, which includes $27 million for English language learner programs and funds an additional 5,000 seats in preschool and kindergarten classrooms. “This bill that the governor is about to sign will authorize 5,000 more kids next year going to publicly-funded, quality preschool programs than what was possible the year before,” said Sen. Pat Steadman, D-Denver, a bill sponsor. Additionally, per-pupil funding for next school year will jump to $7,021, a 5 percent increase. “That’s almost $400 for every one of you students,” Sen. Mike Johnston, D-Denver, told the children in the audience. “So imagine if you came through the doors this morning and we handed $400 to each one of you. It would be pretty good stuff.” The funding efforts that the Legislature passed this year were a response to last year’s failed Amendment 66 ballot measure, which sought to bolster school funding through tax

No Republican lawmakers were present for the signing ceremony. However, the Student Success Act was co-sponsored by Rep. Carole Murray, R-Castle Rock, and both bills received bipartisan support at the Capitol. Republicans who expressed concerns about the funding measures during the legislative process argued that the efforts do not go far enough in replacing “negative factor” dollars. GOP lawmakers also wanted school districts to have more control over how the
money is spent, without state strings attached. But Democratic lawmakers who attended the bill signing told students that they’re going to be in a better position to succeed because of the new funding. “People worked really hard to cause us to fund education at a higher level; to be able to restore some of the money that was missing; to be able to cause you to have a better opportunity to be successful,” said Rep. John Buckner, D-Aurora.

“Serving up Strategy: Learn Supply Chain through the Beer Game.” WhippleWood CPAs Conference Center at the Chamber 2154 E. Commons Ave., Suite 342, Centennial, CO
Friday, May 30: On May 13, almost 100 businesspeople attended a Business After Hours at the Project C.U.R.E. (Commission on Urgent Relief and Equipment) headquarters in Centennial, CO. This event featured three guided tours of the facility by the organization’s CEO and directors of government affairs and operations. The tours gave participants insight into the overall vision of the organization, while providing a closer look into the facility’s operations. “I enjoyed attending the networking event hosted by Project C.U.R.E. and the South Metro Chamber. It’s an incredible feeling to be inside a warehouse full of items we would typically throw in the garbage, but instead, these items are saving lives and healing people. They may not be in our community, but kindness knows no boundaries, thanks to Project C.U.R.E.,” said attendee Angel Tuccy, co-host of the Experience Pros Radio Show on AM 560 KLZ.
Project C.U.R.E.’s mission is to identify, solicit, collect, sort, and distribute medical supplies and services according to the imperative needs of the world. Volcano Asian Cuisine, a sushi and hibachi restaurant in Centennial, provided delicious appetizers for the group. “We were honored to be chosen to host the Chamber’s Business After Hours and share the mission and vision of Project C.U.R.E. with business leaders of South Metro,” said Jan Mazotti, director of communications, marketing and PR. Dr. Douglas Jackson, the organization’s president/CEO, spoke to the group, outlining the great impact the organization has around the world. Each week they deliver approximately three semi-truck loads of donated medical supplies and equipment to desperately needy people around the world. Since 1987, they have delivered equipment and supplies to hospitals and clinics in over 130 countries.
Project C.U.R.E. is consistently recognized with the highest Four Star ranking from Charity Navigator, and was named by Forbes as one of the top 200 charities in America. “We are delighted to continue our partnership with Project C.U.R.E., bringing together our business leaders with a national leader in philanthropy,” said Marcia McGilley, interim CEO of the South Metro Denver Chamber. A team of South Metro Denver Chamber members continues to volunteer monthly at Project C.U.R.E.’s warehouse, sorting medical supplies for export.

opinions / yours and ours
Wildfire reports sound a call to action With the recent rain and hail that pounded much of the Front Range, bringing flooding to some areas, wildfires may not seem like an imminent threat. But trends tell us otherwise. It’s not a matter of if, but when. Earlier this spring, the Colorado Division of Fire Prevention and Control released some chilling information in a special report to the governor and General Assembly. The report focused on strategies to enhance the state’s aerial firefighting capabilities. In making its case for that, the report stated that since the 1990s, “the number, intensity, and complexity of wildfires in Colorado have been growing exponentially, and experts predict that it will continue to worsen.” The length of the wildfire season is growing, too, the report said.
our view “In general, Colorado sees short periods of increased fire occurrence throughout the year with just a few of the fires reaching a significant size or complexity. However, the drought conditions and fire activity experienced throughout 2012 — one of the worst wildfire seasons in state history — may be representative of a new normal. Experts warn that drought and the other causal factors could result in repeats of 2012 with widespread fire activity and extended, year-long wildfire seasons.” In recent months, several reports have
blamed wildfire trends like this across the West on global warming, perhaps further evidence of a “new normal.” Given the bigger picture, it’s difficult for us to find solace in the mid-May prediction by state experts of a “normal” 2014 wildfire season. Even a pre-2012 “normal” means an average year in Colorado would see thousands of fires, with 30 of them being large, destructive blazes. But if 2012 — when 260,000 acres in the state were scorched, more than 600 structures destroyed and six people killed — is a sign of things to come, that’s truly alarming. To their credit, state legislators and Gov. John Hickenlooper took action this past session. On May 12, Hickenlooper signed into law a bill creating the state’s first aerial firefighting fleet. The legislation, which comes with a $21 million price tag,
creates a fleet of four planes — two leased and two owned by the state — and four leased helicopters and designates money for a center to study high-tech firefighting tactics. The primary goal, as outlined in the division of fire prevention’s report, is to keep fires small. If the fleet can help cut down on an average year’s $42 million in fire-suppression-expenses, while saving lives, acres and property, it will be money well spent. One thing is for certain when it comes to wildfires in Colorado: Inaction is not an option. With the ominous reports that have surfaced, lawmakers here and in other Western states would be wise to read and react for years to come.
Newest may not be the greatest
Movies shouldn’t feel like being assaulted “Badges? We ain’t got no badges. I don’t have to show you any stinking badges.” Name it and claim it. Alfonso Badoya. He was “Gold Hat” in a great film. Answer at the end. I make frequent references to films in my columns. I was almost a theater arts major, and if I had been I would have been on track to be a director. My school’s theater arts program has graduated some well-known directors and actors and actresses and others associated with the industry. Ultimately, I wanted to make individual pictures, not reels of them. There was another roadblock: people. Have you ever watched the credits? It takes 10 minutes. Hundreds of people are involved. I am not good with or around people. I no longer go to theaters. I watch films here at home. Very few of them are recent. I don’t like gun work. The f-word is used as if it is a throwaway. A gimme. Five hundred and six times in “The Wolf of Wall Street.” Come on. Aren’t there other words? For anger, anxiety, disapproval, description? It’s funny how we seem to seek the action, and give it a bad connotation. I watch documentaries. I watch films that aren’t blockbusters. Blockbusters are for someone else. I love cinema too much to watch a blockbuster. Action films are not welcome. I read the newspaper, I don’t need to pay to see the kind of crap that people do to people. Give me a Benjamin, free tickets to a Quentin Tarantino? No thanks. I didn’t see a single film that was nominated for an Academy Award. A good pal is married to a Disney executive, and he has home access to all of the nominated films every year. She said, “You missed out on some good movies last year.” I am sure I did. I just don’t want to watch people killing each other. But you do. “Captain America Something” is No. 1 right now. I guess some people go to movies to disconnect from the real world. But this garbage
is the real world. How can someone read about Claire Davis and still go to Tarantino? Cry all you want and light all of the candles you want to light. Subscribe to “Memorial Stuffed Animals.” And then pay to see someone be killed. We escape in the film. From what? The things we escape from are right there in the movies you pay to see. Something is wrong (with you). If you don’t want to be scolded, read someone else. Tarantino is a complete idiot. Tarantino is a complete genius, because he knows his audience is Jerry-Jerry-Jerry morons. I get angry. Don’t I? Why would anyone go to see “The Dark Knight Rises” in the first place? At midnight. With your children. You are what you eat, and if you eat the kind of movies that you are fed, you must not cry. It’s called duplicity. Do you care about the Nigerian schoolgirls? Women on buses in India? Have you done your reading about Chicago lately? And then you and the girl go to see “Captain America.” I am probably alienating some of my audience. Good. It’s not dachshunds and Jennifer every week. Try. Try watching something good. “Amelie.” Cocteau’s “Beauty and the Beast.” “Bully.” “Five Easy Pieces.” I know it’s hopeless. You look forward to the Super Bowl halftime, and think it’s worthwhile. It is the opposite. “Treasure of the Sierra Madre.” Craig Marshall Smith is an artist, educator and Highlands Ranch resident.

With so much content and so many authors and experts who write about the trends in the field of personal and professional development, sales training, leadership and customer service, I am often asked by customers for the latest and greatest material in these areas. They are looking for that something new or a silver bullet, some magic dust or cure-all pill to fix their problems, their people, or in some cases, themselves. Now don’t get me wrong, I am a huge advocate of growth and I am all for continuing education whether that comes in the form of reading, listening, watching, participating in seminars, or cloud learning through socialization of ideas, or any other medium, for that matter, that takes us and/or our teams to a higher level. Any attempt at upping our game in anything we do or endeavor to do is to be applauded. And when I am asked for specific advice or recommendation for a good book or program to attend, I love to share thoughts and ideas as well as happily recommend something provocative that I have recently read or participated in. But my favorite thing to do is remind people that it is not necessarily “what’s new” that works … it’s really all about “what works” that works. Sometimes the latest and greatest writings or advice is adopted quickly as a trend or fad, but soon meld into some remnant of a concept or philosophy that was written and practiced long ago. I still

When Hall of Fame baseball player Ted William finished the 1941 baseball season with a .400 batting average, was he using today’s technology to achieve his results? When golfing greats Jack Nicklaus, Sam Snead, Arnold Palmer or Byron Nelson recorded golf scores in the low 60s they surely weren’t using the clubs, grips, balls, and swing technology we use now. As a matter of fact, I would bet that any of today’s baseball players such as Troy

THE MOUNTAIN MEN
Area resident shows grandson the ropes, world By Chris Michlewicz
cmichlewicz@colorado communitymedia.com Earl Voight is a man who sets his course and goes. He was only 13 years old when he decided to one day become an optometrist and move to Colorado. Sixty-three years later, he’s still making plans, but these days, they don’t revolve around his distinguished career. Instead, he plots other paths, ones that take him above the clouds. Voight’s grandson, Jeremiah Watson, 21, usually isn’t far behind when Voight tackles the world’s most challenging peaks. In fact, Watson became somewhat of a sensation when, at the age of 10, he became the youngest American to scale Mount Kilimanjaro. The family can add another distinction to the list after the pair’s most recent excursion to Patagonia. It wasn’t until they were already attempting the Torres del Paine circuit, a grueling, 81-mile hike that takes them through the dramatic peaks of a national park in Chile, that Voight found out he was about to become the oldest person ever to complete the nine-day trek. At the age of 76, Voight doesn’t give much thought to slowing down. He still works full-time at his optometry practices in Parker and Centennial, where his partners graciously fill in during his numerous out of-office moments. He has already climbed all of Colorado’s 14,000-foot mountains several times over, and is now working his way down the list of 13ers (he has 90 remaining). “I just love to be up high,” he says. It’s the lack of a second thought that has taken Voight and Watson to the most breathtaking corners of the world. The decision-making process isn’t a lengthy one: it takes a quick conversation about a destination and a nonchalant “let’s do it” to create a binding agreement. There is considerable research into each spot, however, and the duo is always prepared. That wasn’t always the case. Voight, of Franktown, was 40 when he first began climbing and he did it on a whim with little equipment. He remembers the exact day — July 2, 1978 — when he bought a map of the Lake City, Colo., area that included a 14er. That was all it took for him to take up mountain climbing; despite living in Colorado for more than 15 years, he wasn’t even a hiker at that point. “I went this way and that way, and before I knew it, I was at the top,” he said. Aside from Voight’s wife, Watson was the first family member to take an interest in climbing, and it has resulted in a lasting partnership. Watson, who grew up in Castle Rock, was a toddler when he made a self-imposed rule that he wouldn’t climb
Norton Continued from Page 6
Tulowitzki or Derek Jeter, and golfers such as Bubba Watson or Tiger Woods, would have been equally as good if they played with the same equipment and competed in the same era as the above-mentioned greats. I say this with confidence because it really isn’t about the equipment, it’s about the player, the talent, the work ethic, and the practice. With a focused approach on effort, practice, and the fundamentals we can all excel in anything we strive for in our personal life, our business, or in our
With his 21-year-old grandson Jeremiah Watson, Dr. Earl Voight, 76, points out distant peaks from atop the Lincoln Mountain Open Space bluff recently. The pair has climbed mountains throughout the world, most recently in Chile. Photos by Chris Michlewicz until the age of 7. Grandpa remembered, and since the two share a birthday and the middle name Sheridan, he decided it would be fitting to ascend Mount Sheridan. Watson did the climb with ease, and they crossed a saddle to reach the top of a neighboring 14er, Mount Sherman. “I was carrying a shirt in my pack with all of the 14ers on it and when we got there, I gave it to him and said, `Here. You earned it,’ ” Voight said. “It has the names of the
peak and squares where you can check them off.” Kilimanjaro came a few years later, and when Watson graduated from high school, they climbed in Peru, conquering the Inca Trail, a four-day hike that takes climbers to Machu Picchu. In February, their excursion through the Torres del Paine circuit was everything they had hoped for: excellent weather, good company, and new ter-
rain. At one point, they walked around a lake deep in the mountains and stumbled across a serene beach. “Every time you turn a corner, you run into something remarkable,” he said. “Just gorgeous.” Those words could easily parallel Voight’s life. And with Watson following in his footsteps, it is becoming a family tradition.
Franktown resident Dr. Earl Voight, 76, and his grandson, Jeremiah Watson, 21, hike through Lincoln Mountain Open Space in southeastern Douglas County earlier this spring. recreational activities. So even with all the technology and gadgetry available to us, it really isn’t about “what’s new” that works, it is about finding “what works” that works. How about you, do you focus on effort and practice, or do you look for the newest or latest and greatest equipment to up your game? Either way I would love to hear all about it at gotonorton@gmail. com. And I do believe that when our efforts and practice outpace our search for the next new thing, it really will be a better than good week.

Law ensures juveniles receive legal counsel Youths facing judge will be represented By Vic Vela
vvela@coloradocommunitymedia.com A new law guarantees that arrested juvenile defendants will receive a lawyer when they face a judge for the first time. The law addresses a “concerning” statistic indicating that 45 percent of children go through the entire judicial process without having a lawyer present, according to Rep. Daniel Kagan, D-Cherry Hills Village, who sponsored the effort at the Legislature this year. “This has been longstanding and a very serious problem,” Kagan said. “Our justice system is less robust if children are not getting counsel. This bill makes that right.” The bill — which received bipartisan support from both legislative chambers — was signed into law on May 21 by Gov. John Hickenlooper. After an arrest, judges have 48 hours to determine whether to release a child or keep the person behind bars, pending trial. The bill ensures that juveniles who are making their first court appearance after being arrested will have legal counsel
available at the hearing. Before this law, juveniles were told that they have the option of speaking with a lawyer. But being told that they have that right and actually having a lawyer present are two different things, Kagan said. “The kids are like a deer caught in headlights,” Kagan said. “They don’t have a clue. They’re thinking one thing and one thing only — `How in the hell do I get out of these shackles? I’ll go along with anything that a person wearing a tie or a robe tells me to do.’ But they’re not the child’s lawyer.” The law also assists juveniles who are released from jail. When they receive a summons for their next court appearance, the summons will plainly state that they have a right “to a free lawyer” if they qualify financially, Kagan said. The summons will also have a phone number and website address to provide the youths with more information. Kagan hopes that this law will prevent children from being unnecessarily locked up. “That child’s life can be impacted forever; locked into a bitter, angry, antisocial attitude and it is sometimes hard to recover and it persist for years,” Kagan said. “It’s a very serious issue and I’m delighted that we’re finally addressing it.”

Data center to be built in Douglas $20 million project gets tax break, fee waivers Staff report With preparations nearly complete, an Arizona-based IT firm is preparing to break ground on a 35,000-square-foot data center in unincorporated Douglas County. OneNeck IT Solutions announced plans for a new $20 million, Tier 3+ data center on May 20. The data center will be built on 11.2 acres of land on Concord Center Drive, located south of Centennial Airport in the northern part of the county. Once open, in early 2015, it will be the seventh data center owned and operated by OneNeck in the U.S. “We are excited to make this additional
investment in the Denver area,” said Phil LaForge, OneNeck president and CEO. “Our data center will be built to withstand natural disasters, which means area businesses can rest assured their IT infrastructure is safe, protected, and always accessible in our new Tier 3+ data center.” The multi-phase project is designed for rapid expansion, in up to five phases, totaling 160,000 square feet. It will also be able to support data center modules. The project leverages a personal property tax rebate and construction fee waivers provided by the Douglas County commissioners. “In an effort to continue strategically supporting investing in projects that provide a strong economic foundation for Douglas County, we are proud to support OneNeck in this endeavor,” Commissioner Jill Repella said. About 30 local companies will be involved

in the construction of the building. Denverarea contractor JE Dunn Construction will coordinate the project with support from INVISION Architecture, Faith Technologies and North American Mechanical. “We believe in providing an environment where businesses can succeed. For this reason, it is a pleasure to team up with OneNeck on their data center build, a project that will certainly add to our community’s economic growth,” Repella said. When the doors open in 2015, the data center will resemble other OneNeck data centers in the Midwest. This facility will support common compliance requirements and will also include many state-of-the-industry features, such as: three-factor security authentication, including iris scanners for personnel identification; up to 16-inch-thick steel-reinforced concrete walls, roof and floors; VESDA fire detection system; Tier 4 electrical system
with multiple levels of redundancy and backup; and an energy-saving cooling design. The facility will also deploy ReliaCloud to provide businesses with local cloud storage, LaForge said. “We appreciate the county board’s support and trust in us,” LaForge added. “We look forward to maximizing this opportunity and, ultimately, to making it an economic success for the county, area businesses and OneNeck.” The announcement follows the October 2013 news that MSN Communications, based in Arapahoe County’s Inverness area, was being acquired by Telephone and Data Systems. The acquisition and then unification as part of the OneNeck IT Solutions master brand adds to the company’s strategic direction, which includes building its Tier 3 data center portfolio and delivering tailored end-to-end IT solutions.

Elder-abuse law brings first charges Staff report In the first case under Colorado’s new elder-abuse law, five men have been indicted on charges of scamming seniors in a home-repair scheme. “One man paid in excess of $24,000 for egregiously substandard work,” Colorado Attorney General John Suthers said in a written statement. “In another instance, a 94-year-old woman was swindled out of $8,300 for work that was structurally terrible and worth no more than $1,521. “Evidence was developed alleging that when confronted, these men often became abusive,” Suthers added, “and in one instance, Rickey Gene Fite caused pain and injury to an older gentleman after knocking him to the ground with his truck.” Fite has been taken into custody, as have his father, Rickey Dean Fite, and Rodney
Jackson. Two other men indicted, Michael Sullivan and Emanuel Broadway, were not immediately apprehended. The public is asked to call 911 or the Boulder District Attorney’s Office at 303-441-3700 with any information on their whereabouts. The five men are accused of traveling throughout Colorado and the West, representing themselves as legitimate contractors. Instead, say prosecutors, they ran a “fly-by-night” operation that defrauded and stole from seniors, sometimes using intimidation and violence. Operating in mostly rural areas of Arapahoe, Boulder, Delta, Jefferson, Larimer, Mesa, Montrose, Ouray and Weld counties, the men reportedly would approach homeowners unsolicited. They allegedly would offer a great deal on roofing or concrete work, claiming they had leftover materials from a nearby job.

tips to avoid getting scammed Never allow an uninvited contractor into your home to “look around” or make an “inspection.” Never get pressured into making an immediate decision whether to hire a contractor to do any work on your home. Before spending any significant amount of money on home repairs, get bids from at least three different contractors. Check contractors’ history with the local Better Business Bureau. Demand a written contract that spells out when the work will be started, the quality and type of all materials to be used, and when the work will be completed. Insist on making partial payments under the contract as specific work is completed to your satisfaction. Require your contractor to obtain mechanic’s lien waivers from all suppliers and subcontractors.

“If a price was even quoted, it was low and enticing,” Suthers said. “However, sometimes work began without the homeowner’s permission. Always, though, the final price was hugely inflated.” Boulder County District Attorney Stan Garnett worked closely with Suthers on the case. “Protection of seniors from those who commit fraud and prey upon them financially has always been a priority for my office,” Garnett said in a statement. “This case involves allegations of particularly predatory behavior.” Under the new law, Colorado seniors are legally considered to be at-risk adults, so tougher penalties apply. In addition, the indictment charges the five men with a range of crimes including money laundering, felony theft and tax evasion. If convicted, all five could face up to 24 years followed by five years of mandatory parole.

Money will help music go mobile In celebration of its 35th anniversary, Swallow Hill Music in south Denver is delivering more music to more people in more places. And its latest effort to expand its music community comes with wheels. A donor recently gave Swallow Hill Music a 1976 Silver Streak motor home, to be turned into a mobile music community. But, the ol’ girl needs a little TLC. A crowd-funding campaign with a goal of raising $10,000 launches today to help the Swallow Hill Music mobile home hit the road. Contributions made over the next few weeks will get the Silver Steak running smoothly, add signage and give her an overall buff and shine. Once she’s up and running, she’ll turn into a mobile music community, providing Instrument Petting Zoos, impromptu performances and musical experiences throughout Denver. Taking Swallow Hill Music on the road will boost Denver’s access to music education by transporting instruments and musical experiences throughout the metro area, meeting people where they live and enriching their lives through music.

Originally called Chatfield Arboretum, this wonderful asset was set aside as floodplain by the Army Corps of Engineers after the 1965 flood — meaning it could not be developed. In combination with Chatfield State Park, local residents have access to acres of natural areas close enough to pop in for a few hours’ visit and perhaps a picnic.

Concert recalls Englewood art-lover Wolosyn remembered as ‘always in motion’ By Sonya Ellingboe
sellingboe@coloradocommunitymedia.com A kinetic sculpture called “Duo” stands near the Englewood Civic Center, dedicated to the late, beloved Englewood Mayor Olga Wolosyn. Like the ever-moving sculpture, Olga was “always in motion,” said conductor Eric Bertoluzzi at the beginning of the annual Wolosyn Memorial Concert, “Shuffle,” held May 17 in Hampden Hall. A professional potter, Wolosyn was involved with the beginnings of the Englewood Arts Presents concerts and the city’s efforts to strengthen music and visual arts in the schools. Bertoluzzi, a retired Colorado Symphony Orchestra cellist, was right there beside her through the startup years, and he keeps mu-
sic programs in motion now. The Up Close and Musical Ensemble, which performed the May 17 concert, has a rotating membership of about 14 musicians per performance, drawn from a pool of Colorado Symphony Orchestra members and other professional musicians in the area. They primarily perform in elementary schools, presenting informal programs for children who may not have experienced classical music. This is the 26th year for Up Close and Musical, and they have visited 38 schools and given more than 130 concerts for students during the past school year. They hope to encourage kids to learn to play an instrument and enjoy making music with others. Artists who performed on May 17 were: Concertmaster Erik Peterson; violins 1: Boram Kang, Anne-Marie Hoffman, Dorian Kincaid and Felix Petit; violins II: Allegra Wermuth, Cynthia Mancinelli, Robyn Julyan and Philip Ficsor; violas: Catherine Beeson,
Philip Stevens, Anne Ainomae and Summer Rhodes; cellos: Danielle Guideri, Gal Faganel and Beth Rosbach; bass: Mary Reed. The group performed music by Mozart, Grieg, Hindemith, Gershwin, Bartok and a young Texas composer, Jonathan Geer (born in 1980), whose “Tango Suite for String Orchestra,” modeled after tangos by Argentine composer Astor Piazzolla, brought a Latin beat to the concert hall. Geer performs on piano with the Austin Piazzolla Quintet, which is scheduled to appear in Englewood on April 10, 2015, in the Friday Evening Starlight Rhythms concert series, which offers a mix of jazz, bluegrass, gospel, world and folk music. Englewood Arts Presents also has scheduled nine more Chamber Music of the Masters concerts on Saturdays for the 2014-2015 season, starting on Oct. 4. For information, see the Englewood Arts Presents website at englewoodarts.org/concert-series/englewood-arts-presents/.

Each year in May, the Denver Public Library celebrates young poets, artists and writers who have entered a pair of competitions held by Colorado Humanities and Colorado Center for the Book. On May 16, students, families and teachers from across the state gathered to recognize this year’s winners, which included several from Littleton and Centennial. “River of Words” is a poetry and art competition for grades K-12 focused on the theme of watersheds and the environment. According to the Colorado Humanities website at coloradohumanities.org, it is “designed to help youth explore the natural and cultural history of the place they live and to express what they discover in poetry and visual art.” Winners receive prizes from local businesses and are published in the Colorado Foundation for Water Education publication, “Headwaters.” Entry for students is free and there is a free curriculum for teachers. (Deadline is December of each year.) Award winners were selected by artist Rik Sargent (of Centennial), state Supreme

Court Justice Gregory Hobbs, and master poet Jim Ciletti. “Letters about Literature” involves students writing to a favorite author, explaining why that person’s book held a special meaning for the student. Authors Kathleen T. Pelley, Caroline Stutson (of Littleton), Nancy Oswald, Todd Tuell, Carol Sue Shride and Teague Bohlen selected the winner.

Player of the year: ‘Tate the Great’ Arapahoe sophomore may forego junior season to focus on national game By Jim Benton
jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Arapahoe’s team lined up for a picture after the girls state tennis tournament at the Gates Tennis and held up a sign that proclaimed ‘Tate the Great.’ Tate is Tate Schroeder. She is the Arapahoe sophomore who won the Class 5A No. 1 singles championship on May 10 with a 6-4, 6-3 victory over Loveland’s defending state champion Rebecca Weissmann. Schroeder’s friend Caroline Carman made the sign that the Warriors displayed in their post-tournament team photo. “I didn’t know she was going to make the sign,” confessed Schroeder. “She came to watch my match. She made a couple signs. They were double-sided. On one said it said ‘Tate the Great’ and on the other side it said ‘Tate for State.’ I just loved it.” Schroeder, who has been nothing short of great, has been named the Colorado Community Media South Metro Girls Tennis Player of the Year. Warriors coach Andrzej Sosnowski wasn’t surprised by the honor or the support shown for Schroeder because she dedicated the season to Claire Davis, the student who was killed in a Dec. 13 shooting at Arapahoe. “Tate is very much a team player,” said Sosnowski. “I can’t speak about the other girls she competes against but when the rest of her team is playing she is always on
Arapahoe High School sophomore Tate Schroeder won the Class 5A state title at No. 1 singles on May 10. Photo by Tom Munds the side of the court and watching them and encouraging them. She could be by herself but she’s so much of a team player. She got a good sense of humor. I’m so proud of her attitude. On the court she’s so focused but off the court she has time for other people.” On the court, Schroeder was nearly unbeatable this season. She was 12-1 with the lone loss a three-set setback in April to
Cheyenne Mountain’s Kalyssa Hall, the winner of the Class 4A No. 1 singles title. “Tate is a very dynamic player,” Sosnowski said. “She’s very aggressive in the way that she plays. She really stays focused when she plays. She attacks the ball a lot and puts pressure on her opponent right from the very first ball. She thrives on pace. “She might prefer her forehand a little
more than her backhand but she’s able to hit winners with both her forehand and backhand. In the last year she’s been working a lot of her serve. So her serve is quite a weapon. “She’s a workhorse on the court. She always gives 100 percent. There’s not a slow gear with her.” Schroeder, the daughter of Denver Broncos cheerleader director Teresa Shear, claims patience has been her biggest improvement this season. “I was a lot more patient this year,” she said. “I waited for the right shot and the right opportunity. That’s something I’ve been working on for a long time. I’m glad it got to show at the state tournament. “I thought it was a great year. I made a lot of new memories and I had a great team. We got third in state, which is the best in school history. I was undefeated in 5A. I was really happy with the results.” Schroeder and Weissmann were recently selected to the National High School Tennis All-American Foundation team. Both players are sophomores, but many elite players skip high school tennis to play in national tournaments. Schroeder hasn’t decided if she will play for Arapahoe as junior. “I’m not sure right now,” she said. “There are a lot of important tournaments during the time of the high school tennis and junior year is an important year for recruitment. “This season was great because the girl I beat (Weissmann) in the finals was No. 18 in the nation. That gave me a good thing to send out to college coaches. High school tennis doesn’t count toward your regular ranking. A lot of college coaches look more at your national ranking than high school tennis.”
Arapahoe senior finishes second at state golf Hannah Wood loses one-hole playoff to Rock Canyon’s Romano By Jim Benton
jbenton@coloradocommunitymedia.com Hannah Wood was obviously disappointed with her putt but was proud to even be in a playoff. The Arapahoe High School senior lost what wound up being a one-hole playoff to Rock Canyon senior Michelle Romano with the Class 5A state title on the line at Littleton’s Raccoon Creek Golf Club. The University of Oklahoma-bound Wood birdied the 18th hole for a 3-overpar 75 and finished the tournament with a 153 total. Romano also had a 75 and a 153 total. When leader Jaylee Tait of Columbine three-putted the last hole for a double bogey to drop into a third-place tie, Wood and Romano grabbed their clubs and headed to the first hole for a playoff to decide who would be the state champion. Both players hit their second shots onto the green on the par-4 first hole. Wood left her 25-foot birdie putt four feet short on her third shot, while Romano, from 15 feet away, rolled her putt to within two feet of the cup. Wood’s par putt, however, lipped out. And Romano tapped in hers to claim the state individual championship. “It’s disappointing,” said Wood about leaving the birdie putt short. “I just considered the greens to be fast but I guess they kind of slowed down. I knew the hail had some effects on the green.” A weather delay had forced the golfers to take cover for 80 minutes late in the final round with several threesomes still on the course.
When play resumed, Wood bogeyed on the par-3, 17th hole but responded with a birdie on the par-4 18th hole, which got her into the playoff. “My goal is to make birdie no matter what,” said Wood who was 1-under par after the front nine to grab a share of the lead. “Everything I did coming in … and then I lost the playoff hole, things just didn’t seem to go my way.” Wood concluded her prep career with a 10th, two thirds and a second-place finish. “I’m proud of myself no matter what, getting into that playoff,” she said. “This tournament means the world to me. It’s pretty disappointing because I really wanted to win this for Arapahoe considering what we went through as a school (this year).” Also from the area, defending champion Calli Ringsby, of Cherry Creek, appeared ready to challenge for the lead after an eagle on the second hole moved her into a first-place tie. Yet the senior struggled the rest of the round, carding a 79 to wind up in a seventh-place tie on the final leaderboard. Creek was fifth in the team standings, ending its string of three consecutive state titles. Legend junior soccer player Anna Kennedy showed her prowess on the golf course with the tournament’s best final round, a two-over-par 74, and tied for third at 154. Samantha Barker of Highlands Ranch was ninth at 160. Regis Jesuit won the team title with 486 points while runner-up Rock Canyon finished three strokes behind. Also in the top 10, Arapahoe was third, Cherry Creek fifth, Heritage seventh and Legend 10th. In the Class 4A tournament at the Country Club of Colorado, Valor Christian’s Andrea Ballou was the runnerup after rounds of 81 and 79 left her 14 strokes behind runaway winner Jennifer Kupcho of Jefferson Academy.

CANCER (Jun 21 to Jul 22) a realistic view of a workplace or personal situation helps you deal with it more constructively once you know where the truth lies. Reserve the weekend for someone special. LEO (Jul 23 to aug 22) as much as you Leos or Leonas might be intrigued by the “sunny” prospects touted for a potential investment, be careful that you don’t allow the glare to blind you to its essential details. VIRGO (aug 23 to Sept 22) a friend’s problem brings out the Virgo’s nurturing nature in full force. However, don’t go it alone. allow others to pitch in and help share the responsibilities you’ve assumed.

Use this time to work on another business matter that you’ve been anxious to get to.

The May 21 Class 5A state girls lacrosse championship game came down to the wire but Air Academy held off a determined Cherry Creek rally to win the title, 11-10. “It was a championship game so you know the other team will be coming at you hard,” Bruins coach Bree Tierney said after the game. “We battled hard and came close but weren’t able to get those final goals we would have needed to win the game.” Cherry Creek finished with a 12-7 record on the year, while Air Academy raised its overall record to 17-2 with the win at the Peter Barnum Stadium on the University of Denver Campus. Between them, the two teams have won the last nine state championships. The Bruins have won six and the Kadets three. Despite their success, the Bruins, who won it all in 2013, weren’t expected by most to make it to the finals. And while the Kadets won two of their three tournament games by more than 10 goals to advance to the finals Cherry Creek won the quarterfinal and the semifinal games each by one goal. Following an afternoon of heavy rain and hailstorms, the sky was clearing as the teams took to the field for the title tilt. Air Academy scored less than a minute into the game and the Bruins tied the score three minutes later. Cherry Creek scored the next two goals and, about midway through the first half, the Kadets has scored three goals in a row to take a 4-3 advantage. Cherry Creek re-seized the lead at 5-4 with 3:31 left in the half but after a late Kadet goal, things were all tied up at the break. After Creek took a 7-5 lead early in the second half, Air Academy did everything but put the game away, jumping ahead 11-7 with a series of quick tallies. Olivia List started a determined Cherry Creek comeback effort as she intercepted a Kadet pass and won the one-on-one matchup with the Air Academy goalie to make it 11-8. The Bruins then pressed the attack and List scored again with 4:56 left in the game, and Caroline Perry scored 30 seconds later to make pull Cherry Creek within a goal. The Bruins got off seven more shots in the final two minutes, but three sailed wide of the cage, defenders deflected two shots, one hit the goalie and one hit the cage. Air Academy regained possession of the ball and ran out the clock to preserve the win. “The game was a little different than I expected,” Tierney said. “I expected us to shoot better and I thought we could shut down their attack a little better. That said I am proud of the way our girls refused to quit when Air Academy was up by four. They put on a spurt at the end to make the game close and they should be proud of that effort.” The coach noted the next few weeks will be time for the team to celebrate the good things about the season for the 11 seniors who graduated earlier in the day. She said those seniors will be hard to replace but she feels she has a number of good players who will be ready to step up and battle for starting spots on the varsity team next spring.

Bruins fall in baseball’s final four By Jim Benton
jbenton@colorado communitymedia.com It was one of those shoulda, coulda, woulda games for the Cherry Creek baseball team. The Bruins were ousted from the Class 5A state baseball tournament May 23 following an 8-6 loss to Rocky Mountain at All-City Stadium in Denver. Creek should have been out of the fifth inning tied but a two-run throwing error pushed the Lobos ahead. The Bruins could have possibly tied the game in the top of the seventh but lined into a double play. And Cherry Creek possibly would have won
the game except for several other blunders. “The game was really determined by several things,” said Creek coach Marc Johnson. “...We gave too many free at-bats and we made too many mistakes.” Creek’s leadoff hitter reached base in six of the seven innings and the Bruins outhit the Lobos, but the mistakes were too damaging. Rocky Mountain jumped to a 4-0 lead in the first inning but Bruins’ starter Cody Wood settled down and Creek rallied to take a 5-4 lead in the fourth inning. The Lobos tied the score on a lead-off homer in the fifth and the Bruins appeared ready to get out of the inning without any
more damage. With two outs, relief pitcher Justin Jeronimus made a nice snag of a ground ball, ran toward first base but lofted the ball over the head of the first baseman, which allowed two more runs to score to give Rocky Mountain a 7-5 lead. Cherry Creek pulled to within 7-6 in the sixth on Blake Goldsbery’s sacrifice fly. Aeneas Roberson advanced from second base on Goldsberry’s deep fly but was tagged for the third out of the inning when he slipped rounding third base. Creek, down 8-6, had runners on first and second in the top of the seventh with one out. Johnson put the runners in mo-
tion, but Jack Hallmark was jammed on an inside pitch and lined into a double play to end the game. Wood gave up four runs in the first inning but settled down and pitched 4 1/3 innings. He allowed just four hits. However, he hit three batters and walked one. Ryan Robb had three hits, while Grant Farrell, Roberson and Jack Gillett each collected two hits for the Bruins. Creek finished with a 19-6 record that surprised many observers who expected this to be a down season for the traditionally strong program. “The team battled, played hard and did everything they could do,” Johnson said.
