ANCIENT TALES FROM THE 7TH GRADE p. 5 SEPTEMBER 22, 2016
Middle School #4 named for George Wagner
Central Texas’ Award-Winning Local News Source
WILLIAMSON COUNTY WEEKEND: Politics, Peacemakers & Picnics
The George-
town ISD Board of Trustees unanimously voted to name Middle School #4 after longtime GISD mentor George Wagner at its regular meeting on September 19. Wagner has served as a mentor and volunteer in Georgetown ISD since 1997, and has been involved in various community programs throughout the years. The district solicited suggestions for the name of Middle School #4 from the community. More than 435 individuals submitted a total of 83 unique names for the Board’s consideration. “He has 18 years of mentoring experience, is currently mentoring four to five GISD students, and also runs Junior University. Most of you may not even know who this person is; he doesn’t do this with a lot of fanfare. He does this quietly, and all he is concerned with is helping kids in need,” said one board member. Over the past 18 years, George Wagner has spent thousands of hours mentoring students, as well as working with parents, GISD staff, the Boys & Girls Club, Brookwood in Georgetown, Head Start, and Juvenile Justice to build positive futures for children in Georgetown. George has routinely mentored 3-5 children per year for the past 18 years and maintains longterm connections with them. A student who submitted George Wagner as a suggestion for the name of the new middle school said, “Me and Mr. George met when I was in 1st grade and now I am going into the 6th. Over the years, he has taught me to read, to help others, and self-discipline. Mr. George would come to Mitchell Elementary every week and spend time with us. Week after week, year after year. Mr. George helps me be a better me.” George Wagner Middle School is under construction on Rockridge Lane and is set to open in the fall of 2017.

Last weekend, leadership and law enforcement all over Williamson County gathered to talk politics and peacemaker support at several popular annual events. Many of the speakers took the opportunity to reflect on the upcoming national election, and Texans were reminded that, more than anything, simply voting is critical. First, in Austin, Sheriff-elect Robert Chody and many officers and supporters from Williamson County attended the second annual Police Lives Matter parade. Constable Chody organized the first march last September. Later, he and about 100 officers, families and supporters returned to Georgetown for an all-day "Back the Badge" barbecue. Saturday night, several hundred guests and supporters enjoyed Texas-style fellowship at the 7th annual Schwertner Round-up featuring Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar as a keynote. The round-up has become a staple of Senator Charles Schwertner's support. Businessman Jim Schwertner opened the evening with a wink; "I'd like to thank all the Deplorables for coming tonight." A jumbo-sized crowd attended the Republican Party picnic Sunday at Williamson County Regional Park. Party members, elected officials and families enjoyed networking, fun picnic fare, and the best splash pad in the county. Special guest, Attorney General Ken Paxton entreated his fellow party members, "Don't stay home for the upcoming general election, to maintain Texas values in leadership locally and nationwide."

An animal control officer will respond to the report. The Georgetown Animal Shelter is hosting a lowcost vaccine clinic on September 24. Contact the shelter at (512) 930-3592 to make an appointment at the clinic. The Animal Shelter is located at 110 W.L. Walden Drive.
Two bats found in Georgetown last week have tested positive for rabies. Both bats were collected by Georgetown Animal Services on the north side of downtown. The bats collected on September 7 and on September 9 were each sent to the Texas Department of State Health Services lab in Austin for testing. Positive rabies virus results were indicated this week. Animal control officers do not believe that any people have been exposed to rabies from the bats. However, it is important to protect pets by making sure they have a current rabies vaccination. “Not all sick bats have rabies and not all rabid bats appear sick,” says Kelly Thyssen, animal control officer with the Georgetown Police Department. “If you find a bat, especially if it is inside your home, in an area that a child has access to, in a room with a

The coordinator will be a licensed social worker who can talk with patrons who have social service needs and help them navigate available services. The position also will work with nonprofit and governmental social service organizations in the region and will assist nonprofit organizations to use Library materials and resources. The Library will provide space for nonprofit organizations to meet with clients, conduct trainings, and provide informational fairs. “Librarians by profession are information providers,” says Eric Lashley, director of the Georgetown Public Library. “We came to realize that providing the information many of these residents were requesting required a different set of skills and knowledge base. Therefore, we wanted to have a member of our staff with the right set of skills to help this segment of our population and we feel a person with knowledge of social work and the social services sector would be most beneficial.” The position is funded by a three-year grant from the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services through the Texas State Library and Archives. The position is currently posted and Lashley hopes to have

Run, Relax, Resort for Rover
Ponderosa Pet Resort was launched in March of 2010 by Phillip Paris after seeing the need for quality, affordable pet boarding in the Georgetown area. The Resort is a full service pet facility at 2815 N Austin Ave in Georgetown, TX. Their facility provides climate-controlled indoor boarding, as well as outdoor training and play areas. They welcome dogs and cats, and offer world class training and behavioral work, pet grooming for all types of dogs and doggie daycare. Owner and head trainer Phillip Paris says; "We pride ourselves on our
clean facility and a friendly staff that is highly trained and knows how to take care of your pets." Paris founded Capital Area K-9 Consultants in 1999 in response to local input about the need for quality pet dog training in Georgetown. Since then he has trained thousands of dogs for clients all over Texas, the U.S. and Canada, and has built a solid reputation as a professional trainer. Paris was also a Police Officer for the City of Georgetown for 15 years. His success in the police K-9 industry carried over into dog training for pets. Ponderosa has many perks not offered at your standard boarding locations; check-in/out any
time, elevated cots, snack and swim packages, and special care for senior dogs. Most dog owners know a tired dog is a happy dog so you can also drop your dog for daily play times. Discounts are applied for second or more animals. Some days fill up fast and they may not have room for all pets. Check their Facebook.com/PonderosaPets to see if they are booked for the day. Fees and schedules are available at PonderosaPets.com.

Franchise owners Chirag and Sudesh (pictured above) are already working on contracts for their next three restaurants between here and Waco. Originally from India, they switched from programming to retail food and love seeing the long lines at their restaurant. "There are not many places to sit down and eat pizza here. We are pleased at the response." Guests can order off the menu or build their own pizza; toppings are unlimited. Chirag says, "The fast food market has been trending toward a

Jarrell's "Purple Out" Fundraiser Rallies Around Volleyball Coach Battling Cancer The Jarrell community
has a great reputation for altruism. Last year they held fundraisers for breast cancer awareness and child cancer research. This year they are raising money for one of their own. Jarrell High School Volleyball coach Vicki Kieffer has been at Jarrell High School since 2005. She was diagnosed with stage 3 cancer last spring and had surgery in June. She is cur-
rently going through chemo and radiation treatments. She was unable to attend a few early games this season, but she is back at work and attributes her renewed strength to the love and support of her players. Doctors recently told her they need to get more aggressive with and extend her treatments so Jarrell High School is having "Purple Out" volleyball and football games September 30.
Proceeds from t-shirt sales and a silent auction will be provided to Keiffer for her out-of-pocket medical expenses. Orders for t-shirts will be taken at both Friday games and order forms are available online at Jarrellisd.org. The t-shirts are being donated by Aquado Stone, Inc. in Georgetown, so 100 percent of the proceeds will go to Coach Keiffer. There is also a "Coach Kieffer Cancer Fund"
checking account at Eagle Bank in Jarrell for anyone who wishes to donate money directly to her. Jarrell Coach Drew Sumner says, "She is a great person and everyone loves her. People in our community are doing a great job of supporting her. She is still working and we could not be more proud." Eagle Bank is located at 12345 N Interstate Hwy 35, at the intersection of 487.
Commissioners Court Adopts Tax Rate
Williamson County Commissioners Court adopted a total tax rate of $0.476529 per $100 of valuation. The adopted tax rate is a half penny decrease from last year’s county tax rate. For the average homestead valued at $253,380, this will be an increase of approximately $7.40 per month due to an increase in the average home value of 9.07 percent. The tax rate will effectively be raised by 5.87 percent for maintenance and operations. The county tax rate is comprised of three tax rates. The Court approved a general fund tax rate of $0.269029, which is a reduction of 1/2 cent from the current tax rate. The Road & Bridge tax rate was adopted at $0.0400 cents, and the debt service tax rate at $0.167500 cents per $100 of valuation. Both the Road & Bridge and debt service tax rates are the same as last year. This is the second consecutive year that the general fund tax rate has decreased a half cent. County Judge Dan A. Gattis stated, “Once again, we are focusing on paying down our debt for capital improve-
ments and have been successful at doing that and being able to reduce the general fund tax rate by a half cent. Our budget includes $10.1 million for debt defeasance and reflects the challenges we face in being one of the fastest growing counties in not only Texas, but the United States.” The Commissioners Court adopted the county budget on August 30, 2016. The general fund budget for FY 2016-2017 is $179,871,807; the Road & Bridge budget is $29,505,841 and included an additional $1 million for rehabilitation of neighborhood streets and $1 million toward the long-range transportation plan for engineering and right-of-way purchases; and the Debt Service budget, which is repaying the debt associated with road, park and other capital improvements, is $93,160,731 and includes $10.1 million for paying down existing debt.

the warrior cultures of the ancient Mediterranean world... Many writers set a life goal to have a book published. Students at Grace Academy in Georgetown have already accomplished said goal and they are not even in high school yet. Last year, Ed Straka's 7th grade Ancient History class studied the era and cultures of Ancient Greece and Rome. In addition to reading about it, they did a great deal of independent research, and each student wrote a fictional short story related to a different non-fiction facet of the time period. Mr. Straka compiled the stories and created a "real life book" that is now available to the public on Amazon. "I needed to motivate the kids to buy into a writing project. One that would
allow them to work with what they had learned in history, as well as get their creative juices flowing for literature. I did not want to have them use the usual formulaic method of writing. They are so used to that in their language classes that they can sometimes be against a project before they even know what it is." Straka says the kids' initial response was iffy, but after a follow-up bribe that included not only the published book, but a pizza party, they bought in completely and even decided on the name "Silent Fools Productions" for their publishing company. They provided rewrites, edited and reviewed each others' works, and got the
book up for sale by midMay of this year. The kids used people they know as models for their fictional historical characters, including each other and their teacher. Avery, one of the contributors, explained, "I really surprised myself. I didn't think I would be able to create something interesting. Most of my writing assignments were basically parroting things from my history books. But I got to integrate the information and come up with my own story line." Kristen said, "It was overwhelming at first, but after we started we writing it, I felt more confident." Thanks to on-demand printing, interested cus-
tomers can click to order a translation of the book in nearly any language. Benjamin said, "It was really stressful when we were doing it but now it feels so rewarding to see the finished product."
I AM EXCITED THAT PART OF A BOOK THAT I WROTE ACTUALLY GOT PUBLISHED. ~CHRISTINA Nathan, who was the inspiration for the next class project, said, "It really shows the uniqueness of each student; keeps it fun and interesting and represents us all so well." Susanna focused on the diversity of the subjects; "Some wrote about great battles, some characters died, escaped, family life, we covered everything."
Christine loved modeling characters after people she knew. She used several "Straka-isms" to illustrate one of her main characters. Many students already write for pleasure or as a hobby. Some realized from this project that writing is not going to be their thing, but those who have an affinity for it are that much more engaged in it as a result. Asked whether it changed any of the students' opinion about being a writer, Nathan said, "I don't consider myself a writer, but this definitely showed me the attraction of it. How you put yourself on paper and show yourself as an artist with words as your art form. This is really fascinating and interesting to do." Straka says his goal was to show the students that
through hard-work, follow through, and group effort they could do anything as long as they are willing to pay the price. Coincidentally, as if to punctuate his point, the Latin text painted on the wall of Straka's classroom says, Life gives nothing to us without tremendous work and sacrifice. One who suffers also conquers. Next up for Silent Fools is a collaboration with the Science Department to work on a concept for "No Muss Mousse" by Spring 2017.

Tiskets & Taskets I'm in the Deplorables basket. Even more than most I assume since I even voted for Trump in the primary. So Hillary thinks I'm a racist, homophobic, islamaphobic, sexist, xenophobe. The Huffington Post followed up by saying data proves she was being conservative by using "half" because surveys show Trump supporters are actually worse than that. To start, Reuters reported in June that 50 percent of Trump supporters believe African-Americans are more violent than whites. Well, Hill-ington, how about the Wall Street Journal data that says, during the years studied, 50 percent of all murders and nearly 40 percent of all violent crimes in the U.S. were committed by the 13 percent of our population who are African-American. Does it make me a racist to believe that? Or the findings from study after study on the "Ferguson Effect", referring to the phe-

nomenon of police officers backing off from proactive policing in response to the anti-cop Black Lives Matter movement, with a resulting rise in violent crime. Trump recited the facts out loud; violent crime is up 17 percent in our largest 50 cities. Does it make me racist to believe those findings? Technically, being a racist means I believe myself to be superior to another person simply by the circumstance of his or her birth; namely skin color or ethnicity. Something a person has no control over. Not liking criminal behavior is not the same thing. We despise the purpose of the KKK, but is it racist to despise BLM members who say, "I just want to kill white people"? I'm also not an islamaphobe. Religion could be a matter of choice, but I don't care how people worship. I do care about a person whose primary goal is to kill me. Ahmad Khan Rahami said his leaders told him "to kill unbelievers where they live." And he said, "Okay." So... I am afraid of those guys, but "phobia" is an irrational fear. I don't fear Muslims, and I don't think it's irrational to be afraid of people who put

LETTERS
L-R: Marcia Warren, Sheila Carter, Jerri Jones, Paula Dennis, Ann Hollaway, Barbara Hallmark, Betty Schleder A group of Georgetown women are incensed with Hillary Clinton’s comment that “Half of Trump supporters could be put into a basket of deplorables.” They decided to demonstrate their objections to her irresponsible and vile comments. Most of the “deplorables” to whom Mrs. Clinton referred, are hard-working folks, tax paying citizens, property owners, former veterans and contributing members of our community. “They are PROUD Americans,” said Marcia Warren. “To lump so many Americans together in such a disrespectful way is not only irresponsible, but reflects a hateful and unrealistic view of the majority of Trump supporters. Today we are peacefully demonstrating our objection and disdain for her comments.”
Congressman John R. Carter on the 15th Anniversary of 9/11 On this day 15 years ago our great nation experienced the most deadly terrorist attack on our soil. Sept 11, 2001 will be a day that changed our nation, and our world. The murderous thugs who attacked our nation, deliberately and with evil intent, attacked our freedoms, our way of life, but not our resolve. I will forever be grateful for the men and women that risked their lives to save others: the first responders at the Twin Towers, the first responders and military men and women at the Pentagon, and the brave men and women of United flight 93 that forced the crashing of the plane in a field near Shanksville, PA. Many sacrificed their lives; all put their lives at risk so that many others would be safe. The war on terrorism continues today. The names and faces of the terrorists continue to evolve and change, but the goal is
the same: to destroy our freedoms, our democracy, our way of life, and our faith and perseverance. Many of our brave soldiers have given the ultimate sacrifice and more continue to put themselves in harm’s way as we fight the global war on terror. Our men and women are taking the fight to the terrorists abroad, at home, on the ground, in the air, on our seas, and through our cyber networks. Our nation is strong, we have been shaken, but these challenges only make us stronger. As we continue to fight against the radical Islamic extremists, I am reminded of the words of President George W. Bush delivered soon after that frightful day 15 years ago, “We will not waiver, we will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail. Peace and Freedom will prevail.” God Bless you, God Bless Texas, and God Bless the United States of America.

GHS Comes Back To Stay Unbeaten Eagles Hope To Go To 3-0 In 19-5A At Bastrop On Friday

There aren't many ills in football that a string of 48 unanswered points won't solve—especially when a team is only behind by six points at the genesis of the streak. So it was for Georgetown this past Friday night, playing at home for the first time this season before a large homecoming crowd at the GISD Athletic Complex. Elgin's Wildcats roared into the game with a seemingly unstoppable offense and then exited as Mildcats on the very short end of a 62-20 score. The victory improved the Eagles season and District 19-5A records to 4-0 and 2-0, leaving them in a first-place tie with topranked Cedar Park. GHS currently stands No. 10 in the Old Coach 5A Top 25 and 13th in Texas Football Magazine's rankings. Trailing 13-6 after the first quarter, senior kicker Luiz Diaz bookended one of the longer scoring streaks in recent school history with field goals of 39 and 35 yards. He started the assault with 11 minutes and 58 remaining in the first half and ended it with 56 seconds left in the third quarter. The Eagles scored 31 points in the second quarter and 17 in the third. The only turnover of the contest—a fumble recover by Tavian Smith—set up Diaz's second field goal. Coach Jason Dean and his Eagles will Eagles cont. on B4
No. 1 Cedar Park Tops East View Patriots To Host Cedar Creek Friday For Homecoming By Jon Whittemore Advocate Correspondent
What do you do if you’ve lost your last game while giving up 65 points; are missing one of your key offensive players due to injury; and are playing The Associated Press' No. 1-ranked team in the state? If you are the East View Patriots this past Friday, you strap on your head gear, defy a large homecoming crowd at Gupton Stadium set on intimidating you and play your hearts out. The Patriots lost the District 195A game 35-20, but were in it to the end. With 1:27 left on the game clock, sophomore running back Zion Hester (31 carries for 192 yards) sprinted 25 yards to pull East View to within eight points at 28-20. The try for two was stopped by the Timberwolves' defense, and the Patriots could not successfully execute the expected on-sides kick as the ball failed to travel the mandatory 10 yards. Taking over at the Patriots 49-yard line, the T-Wolves ran two short dive plays before all-state running back/linebacker Tyler Lavine, who had nine carries for 77 yards and two touchdowns, broke through an exhausted East View defense for a 44-yard score. Lavine’s touchdown and the ensuing extra point pushed the point spread to 15 and resulted in the final score. The Timberwolves retained their No. 1 ranking in the wire service poll and are

now 4-0 for the season and 2-0 in district 19-5A. Both Texas Football and The Old Coach websites continue to rank Cedar Park fourth behind Manvel, Denton Ryan and Aledo. East View fell to 1-3 for the season and 0-2 in district competition. However the young and inexperienced Patriots had several bright spots on which to focus. Sophomore Hester (5-foot-10, 175 pounds) took on workhorse duties with the absence
of injured junior Torrie Davis, racking up 192 yards against a highly acclaimed Cedar Park defense. The Patriots became the first team to score more than 13 points on the Timberwolves this season. East View will now go to the opposite end of the standings at 7:30 p.m. when they play Bastrop Cedar Creek (1-3, 0-2 in 195A) in the Patriots' homecoming game at the GISD Athletic Complex.
The Eagles have found the going tough in their first two district adventures, falling to Elgin, 43-0, and sister-school Bastrop, 43-9. Their lone victory was in their second game, a 28-26 win over Class 3A Division I Smithville. In its five seasons of UIL football, Cedar Creek has posted an 8-37 record. Half of the victories came last season in a 4-7 campaign that ended with a 61-8 EV cont. on B6

Although not running off with the top individual and team awards, Georgetown ISD athletes turned in a solid performance this past Saturday morning in the Cedar Park Invitational. Georgetown senior McKenzie Hargrove, coming off a week's rest, placed fifth in the girls 5,000-meter largeschool event, and East View junior Guillermo Carrillo and GHS junior Jonathan Parks took seventh and 10th, respectively, in the boys 5,000-meter run. On the team front, coach Andrew Braun's Eagles placed third in both the boys varsity and junior varsity competitions. GHS did not field a complete varsity girls team with standout junior Jazmin Hernandez taking the week off. East View's boys finished 12th in the 28-team boys large-school team scramble, and 14th in a 25-school varsity girls field. Hargrove ran a time of 19 minutes, 50.60 seconds, finishing 58.30 seconds behind the winner— Austin Bowie senior Carolyn Evans. She finished 18.120 seconds faster than District 19-5A rival Sophia Roach, a Cedar Park sophomore. "McKenzie ran extremely well," GHS girls coach Kellye Richardson said. "I was also pleased with the performance of the other girls. They are doing their best to bring their times down and run closer together as a team; excited about their progress." In the boys varsity race, Carrillo was clocked in 16:37.80, while Parks, who took last weekend off from competition, had a 16:44.70. College Station's Zephyr Seagraves won the race by 4.3 seconds over Cedar Park senior Tyler Crendel. Three other GISD boys finished in the top 20— GHS sophomore Carter Smith was 15th (16:56.60), Eagles freshman Dan Arnold was 17th (17:02.30)

and East View sophomore Luis Aldana was 20th (17:09.20). East View's top individual finisher in the girls varsity race was Lily Rodriguez in 25th place with a 21:01.10. In the varsity team race, GHS finished with 121 points to end up behind Round Rock Stony Point, 73 points; and host Cedar Park, 117 points. "Overall, we are happy with the varsity performance," Braun said. "We have some things to work on, but also did some things very well. Our freshman runner—Dan Arnold and Kaya Ignacio—continue to run well and improve each week. "We are really starting to pick things up in training, so hopefully we will see the results of that come October and November. We will have the full team back together for the Giddings meet, after resting varsity runners the last two weeks."
East View coach Michael Burton gave his team mixed reviews. "I was very happy with several individual efforts on the team, but we need to be closer together at the finish. We got to see several teams from our district compete and now we know where we need to be next month." The District 19-5A meet is scheduled for Friday, Oct. 21, at Old Settlers Park in Round Rock. In the JV boys division, GHS placed third with 122 points behind Round Rock, 51 points and Highland Park, 100 points. East View was ninth with 286 points. Both the Eagles and Patriots placed a runner in the top five— Georgetown junior Daniel Sawyer was second in 18:31.30, and East View's Alvin Gusman was fourth in 18:38.50. "Our JV boys continue to race well," Braun said. "Very proud of how aggressive they are being on the course. Very happy
with Daniel Sawyer, Will Windham, Blake Walker and Chance Thiele’s race this week." In the girls JV race, East View and Georgetown finished 15th and 19th in a 22team field. Neither school placed a runner among the top 30 individuals. Georgetown and East View are both scheduled to compete in the Giddings Tejas Invitational at Camp Tejas on Friday. The boys 5,000-meter varsity race is set for 8:30 a.m. The girls 5,000-meter varsity race at 9:30 a.m. with the junior varsity races to follow— the girls two-mile at 10 a.m. and the boys 5,000-meter at 10:30 a.m. CEDAR PARK INVITATIONAL At Cedar Park High School Note: Official individual results in girls varsity and JV divisions were somewhat scrambled, which could have an effect on the actual team standings.

tively. The Eagles took non-district wins from Belton, 11-2, and College Station, 11-8, in a doubleheader this past Saturday at the Minzenmayer Tennis
Center. East View also improved to 2-0 in 19-5A on Tuesday, Sept. 13, with a 17-2 victory over Hutto, but dropped to 4-6 for the year, losing to College Station, 11-6, and
Belton 13-6, in a pair of matches this past Saturday at home. Coach Jeffrey Kurnik's Patriots hoped to improve to 3-0 in district when it faced Elgin on the road
Tuesday. East View is scheduled to take Friday off and then play at 6A Pflugerville in a non-conference match at 4 p.m. Tuesday as the Patriots have their open date in the nine team
district. Georgetown played 6A Vista Ridge in a non-district match on Tuesday as coach Tennis cont. on B7

The 18th-ranked East Texas Baptist football team overcame a 10-6 halftime deficit and rallied to upend Southwestern, 33-23, this past Saturday night in non-conference action at Ornelas Stadium in Marshall. The Pirates (1-2) outgained the Tigers (3-0), 591-393, on the night. However, the Bucs were penalized 14 times for 179 yards and in the words of their own coach that they didn't take advantage of their opportunities. In his postmortem of the loss, SU head coach Joe Austin pointed directly at the Pirates' failure to execute offensively— despite running 94 plays for nearly 600 yards—as the principal culprit in the loss. "I was all missed opportunities on our part," Austin said. "When we play our best, we can play on the level with the top teams. We had the momentum, but didn't take advantage. We had too many dropped balls." In short, SU held ETBU to only two first downs and 107 yards in the first half while rolling up 273 yards, but produced only 13 points. In fact, 77 of the Tigers' yards came on the game's longest scrimmage play—a 77-yard non-scoring run by Day'Lonzo Freeman. Another factor in the defeat was Pirates sophomore quarterback Frederick Hover having to leave the
game with an unspecified physical problem. He rushed for 127 yards and passed for 78 yards before giving way to senior Bryan Hicks, who passed for 215 yards. Hicks lost his starting job last week in SU's victory over McMurry. "Things changed a bit when Fred had to leave the game," Austin said. "Bryan is a senior, worked hard
in practice and was ready to come in when Fred left. He (Hicks) still has things in his game he needs to improve." After the loss to ETBU, SU will remain on the road this Saturday when it goes north to play their final non-conference games against Wisconsin-River Falls at 1 p.m. The Falcons, who

The passing of Strong, primarily to Wyche (10 catches for 130 yards) and the running of Jacob Cook (26 carries for 132 yards) provided most of Elgin's yardage.
Georgetown finished with 577 yards—164 on the ground and 413 in the air. Herman had his second 400-yard game of thes he competed 22 of 32 for 400 yards with Corrales pulling in 11 for 162 yards and Leggett caught five for 147 yards. Sill and Andrews combined for 143 yards rushing on 21 attempts. Asked about players who stood out during the video review of the game, Dean pointed to junior center Talon Zaro, running backs Sill and Andrews, senior safety Ethen Campbell, junior linebacker Drew Barfield and senior defensive lineman Kadin Hammonds.

home and have a big crowd behind us," Dean said. "We had some adversity in the first quarter. We hung in there and made some defensive adjustments and turned the game around." After stopping Elgin's 10-play, game-opening drive on downs, it took the Eagles just three snaps to score the first of this team's eight touchdowns with score coming on a 43-yard pass from Herman to wide receiver Beau Corrales, who has changed his oral college commitment from Texas State to Iowa of the Big 10. However, Elgin, now 1-3 on the year and 1-1 in district, drove 81 yards in nine plays to tie the game at 7-7 with the touchdown coming on a 9-yard pass from Strong to Kris Wyche and Eric Campos kicked the extra point. GHS then went threeand-out losing a yard on its second possession, and, after the punt, Elgin moved 60 yards in five plays with

be hoping for more of the same at 7:30 p.m. Friday when Georgetown pays its first of two visits this season to Bastrop Memorial Stadium. GHS will be facing Bastrop, which has struggled to a 1-3 season and 1-1 district record with the only victory being 43-9 over Bastrop Cedar Creek this past Friday. Despite the fact that the Bears have lost to Dripping Springs, Manor and Cedar Park by a combined total of 107-24, Dean is not taking Bastrop lightly. "We've played well on the road, but a majority of our kids have never played at Bastrop since they were out of the district for two years," Dean said. "They have an outstanding running back in No. 2 (Jovhan Jones, a junior returning all-district performer) and a strong outside linebacker (Zaveon Veal)." Despite missing time with an injury, Jones had rushed 44 times for 232 yards. "They run a 3-4 defense and are big up from with a 270-pound nose guard," Dean said. "Offensively, we have to be ready for both the pass and run." In 2012 and 2013 when the Eagles and Bears were both in the same district, GHS posted a 54-28 victory in their march to the state finals in 2012 and 41-7 in 2013. For the record, the six touchdowns between Diaz's field goals were an 85-yard pass from Chandler Herman to Caden Leggett, a 1-yard run by Erik Anderson, a 4-yard run by Cade Sill, a 33-yard pass from Herman to Colton Knudsen, a 6-yard run by Leggett, and a 19-yard pass from Herman to Nic Crombie. Diaz kicked the extra point in each instance. The two teams traded touchdowns in the fourth quarter. Elgin cut the GHS lead to 55-20 on a 2-yard keeper by quarterback DeAmante Strong with 10:16 to go, but Sill pushed the margin back to 42 points with a 12-yard run with 2:44 left to play.

EV, GHS Post Key Wins By Galen Wellnicki Sports Editor
East View and Georgetown both followed the District 19-5A form chart by losing to state-ranked Cedar Park, but both the Patriots and Lady Eagles posted victories in their other start of the week that could prove beneficial in the outcome of the nineteam race. GHS fell to the Timberwolves, 3-0, on Tuesday, and East View won the opening set from Cedar Park before going down 3-1 on Friday. But the Patriots' 3-1 win over contender Hutto on Tuesday and the Lady Eagles' 3-0 blanking over lowly Elgin on Friday gave both teams something the doctor ordered. After last week's action, Hutto and East View stood 5-2 and 4-2, respectively, nearing the first-round of the 16-match playoff derby. However—and it’s a big HOWEVER—Hutto played state-ranked Rouse (6-0) on Tuesday in its last first-round game before taking its bye on the final night of the half. In its two
final games of the half, East View visited Elgin on Tuesday and played host to Bastrop Cedar Creek at 6:30 p.m. Friday. Georgetown, a prime subject in the district's preseason playoff talk, improved to 2-4 and has a chance to finish the half at .500 with a successful week. Coach Jenny Richardson's Lady Eagles faced Cedar Creek (3-3) at Eagle Gym on Tuesday and visit struggling Bastrop at 6:30 p.m. Friday. If the Lady Eagles finish the first half at 4-4, they probably will need to win five of their eight second half matches to have a chance at a playoff spot. A 6-2 second-half should guarantee a postseason ticket. Rebounding for second-half wins over East View and Hutto on the second-time-around would be a major plus for GHS. If the Patriots can finish the half 6-2, they will need three to four wins in the second half to advance. East View opens the second half at home against Bastrop at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday (Sept. 27), while
Georgetown has its open date. The Patriots will visit the Lady Eagles at 6:30 p.m. Friday at Eagle Gym. EV won the first meeting, 3-1 (16-25, 25-22, 25-23, 25-22), posting their first victory in the series with GHS. In action this past week, East View swept Hutto, 25-18, 25-16, 27-25, before falling to Rouse, which closes the first half in a showdown with Cedar Park, 14-25, 25-18, 25-13, 25-23. Rouse bested GHS, 2624, 25-9, 25-19, before the Lady Eagles rebounded to master Elgin, 15-5, 25-13, 25-12. Speaking of the victory over Hutto, East View coach Kara Del Bosque said, "That was a huge victory for us. Blocking and defense were the keys for us." In the key third set of the Hutto victory, the Patriots battled back from a 23-20 deficit to tie the score at 23-23 with a pair of kills by junior Rachel Wisian and then went up 24-23 on a kill by senior Madison Heald before the Hippos regain
the lead at 25-24 on a dunk by 6-foot-3 sophomore Cadi Boyer. A kill by Wisian tied the set and gave the ball back to Katie Smith. A Hutto net violation put EV up 26-25, and Heald ended the exercise with a point off her block. With Wisian getting 11 kills and Corrine Novak and Anna Steger adding nine and eight, respectively, the Patriots had a .290 hitting percentage.

SU Volleyball Improves To 12-0
With 3-0 victories over Texas Lutheran and Schreiner this past Saturday in San Antonio, Seventh-ranked Southwestern remained unbeaten and improved to 12-0 on the season and 3-0 in Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference volleyball play. The week's action also included a 3-1 conference win over Trinity on Friday, and a sweep of Our Lady of the Lake earlier in the week on Tuesday at the Robertson Center. SU is working on a streak in which they have posted 3-0 victory in eight of their last nine matches. This week, the Pirates played St. Thomas of Houston at home on Wednesday before four weekend conference matches on Saturday and Sunday at Austin College

SU REPORT in Sherman. SU will play Centenary at 10:30 a.m. and Colorado College at 3:30 p.m. Saturday and University of Dallas at 10 a.m. and Austin College at 4 p.m. on Sunday. Kate Mitchell, Jamison Duck and Piper Sisemore led offensively while SU hit .203 on Saturday while holding TLU and Schreiner to a combined .078. "Showing solid defense all match was a key to holding TLU to .060 hitting percentage," SU coach Don Flora said. "It was nice to see these women come and show
their best stuff in a tough morning match. "Having all 17 athletes contribute to our success (against Schreiner) is the sign this team supports one another deeply. We have a number of areas to focus on and develop to continue to ascend in our overall team goals, but I was happy to see some clean volleyball with the ability to finish the match." Mitchell was nearly unstoppable, posting a .484 hitting percentage with 17 kills to lead the Pirates past Trinity. Duck added 15 digs and a dozen winners. "Getting off to a fantastic start passing and serving tonight was huge in set one," Flora said. "But give Trinity some credit for flipping the momentum in set two. It
was some quality defense and pressure serving that allowed us to pull out sets three and four. "Mitchell was as strong as advertised offensively and came through in crunch time. Duck was low error and showed her range a little better tonight. And with Andie Alford leading the match in digs, it continues to show her skills are getting better every match." In non-conference play, SU looked like a top ten team as they held Our Lady of the Lake to just a .011 attack percentage. MEN'S SOCCER: Southwestern SU cont. on B8

loss to Boerne Champion in bi-district. In the same period of operation, East View has posted a 23-24 mark, including a 2-0 record against the Eagles, winning 34-12 in the first official year for both football programs, and 63-17 in 2013. The Eagles are allowing 38.3 points a game, but only averaging 12.8 yards. On the basis of the season's first four games, rushing defense could be a major problem for Cedar Creek. They are allowing 260 yards a game on the ground, while the Patriots are rushing for 260 a start. Looking back at the Cedar Park game, East View coach Rob Davies said, “Our offensive line did a good job. We went over there with the intention of winning. We weren’t intimidated by their crowd or their reputation. I wouldn’t hesitate to play them again.” In spite of giving up a touchdown on Cedar Park’s first snap from scrimmage on a well-executed “flea-flicker” play, the Patriot defense rallied to hold the Timberwolves to 147 rushing for the game. “We didn’t get our heads down after the shaky start,” added Davies. “The effort was there to be successful, but we lacked some execution. “Cameron Nowell (14 of 28, 165 yards passing) had his best game so far this

season. We had six drops and just have to help him out by simply catching the ball.” Junior receiver Marcus Maldonado caught four balls for 67 yards and seems to be emerging as Nowell’s favorite target. Sophomore Devhaun Little caught three passes including an 11-yard strike from Nowell late in the second period to close the Cedar Park lead to 12-7 at half. Senior slot man Austin Naiser also caught a touchdown pass midway through the third period on a second-and-goal play from the 12-yard line. Also, sophomore kicker Reed Honshtein continued to show accuracy and improving distance on his placekicks. He is perfect on his extra points for the

season and has picked up a couple of field goals along the way. His on-sides attempt at the end of the game was well-placed and did the exaggerated final bounce that is needed but just came up a yard short. With Davis (6-foot, 210 pounds) expected to return soon and the younger players getting experience every week, the prospects for success for the Patriots are on the horizon baring further injuries. “We just need more numbers to work with here at East View,” summarized Davies. “The winning effort is there. We have great kids who work hard and believe in what we’re doing. We just need to play a little more soundly in the football aspects of the game.”

GISD Sub-Varsity Football GEORGETOWN HIGH SCHOOL GHS JV SILVER 47, ELGIN 8— Giovani Beltran ran for three touchdowns and Jared Pierce ran for two. Cooper Bell threw two touchdown passes; one to Dylan Cahill and one to Zach Wolfe. Connor Elston was a standout on the offensive line. . . . Gage Leggett was a standout on defense, with two interceptions; as well as Mason Meyer, recording two quarterback sacks. FREDERICKSBURG JV 24, GHS BLUE 20— Coach Nathaniel Funk said, "We started off slowly after the long trip and trailed 14-8 at halftime. We trailed 24-14 before scoring a late touchdown by Jackson Sioson. We recovered an onside kick by German exchange student Falk Zimmer with just over a minute left but were unable to score. After the slow start, I was really proud of the way we came back and competed; we just started off too slowly and made too many mistakes to overcome the slow start. "Sioson scored two rushing TDs and played his tail off in leading the
comeback. The defense played well— especially Nate McMillan, who has a chance to be a really good safety for us." GHS FRESHMAN WHITE 14, COPPERAS COVE 12—"The freshman teams had a stellar showing this week," coach Jarrell Flores said. Chris Martinez led the team in rushing, and Atzlan Martinez threw a touchdown pass to Caden Edwards. GHS BLUE 43, ELGIN FRESHMEN 6—"The defense played lockdown defense on the night only giving up one touchdown as Joahan Salas, Alan Hernandez and Taco Williams led the unit with several big play," Flores said. "Meanwhile, the offense had five throwing touchdowns from Jacob Ramos and Jackson Tingley caught by Seth Basey for 8 yards, Andrew Denyer for 3 yards, Connor Cummings from 20 yards out, Denyer again from 11 yards and Seth Basey again from 35 yards out. "Roland Moreno finished off the night with a 53-yard touchdown run in the
4th quarter to send Eagle fans home happy." EAST VIEW HIGH SCHOOL CEDAR PARK JV 48, EAST VIEW 0— Offensive MVP— Jackson Pickard. Defensive MVP— Chris Honstein, Michael Rodriguez.

PIRATES FROM PAGE B3 catches for Southwestern. He caught a 3-yard score in the first quarter from Hover, and then pulled down 4and 20-yard scoring receptions from Hicks in the final period. Smith finished the night with nine catches for 61 yards, while Matt Gillen added seven receptions for 141 yards. However, a fumble by Gillen helped fuel ETBU's second-half comeback. It was the only turnover of the game. The Pirates rolled up 298 yards on the ground and added 293 in the air. After being held down in the first half, the Tigers scored 27 points and gained 286 of their yards in the second half. Aaron Robinson led SU's defensive effort with 15 tackles. Justin Broussard
added seven stops, including two sacks. The Pirates held a 10-6 advantage until the Tigers received a 27-yard touchdown reception by Xavier Gray with 6 minutes and 20 seconds to play in the third quarter. ETBU then added another third-quarter score and one early in the fourth to take a 26-10 lead. Hicks and Smith hooked up for SU's final two touchdowns in the fourth quarter. The first of the two Hicks-to-Smith touchdowns cut the lead to 26-16, but a 36-yard by Freeman restored the lead to 10-points with 2:29 to play. SU other points came on a 42-yard field goal and two extra points by Fierst. The Pirates and their three Southern Collegiate
Athletic Conference rivals will take off Saturday, Oct. 1, before opening the conference double-round-robin schedule on Saturday, Oct. 8. HONORS: Addison Elliott and the entire SU offensive line were named to the D3football.com Team of the Week, the online publication announced this past week. Elliott, a senior defensive tackle from Lago Vista, helped the Pirates defense limit McMurry to only 99 total yards in the 24-17 victory on Saturday, Sept. 10. Elliott posted four tackles, including three for loss, and two sacks. One of his sacks came on fourth down, ending the War Hawks' final drive. The starting offensive line of Will Devine, Dereck
Harenda, Noah Berlanga, Trey White and Jacob Harton helped pave the way for 246 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns in the come-from-behind win. Southwestern outgained McMurry 409-99 in the contest, including 246-40 on the ground. SCAC Offensive Player of the Week Dylan Wilburn rushed for 117 yards and two touchdowns on 19 carries behind the line, while Hover added 84 yards rushing and a touchdown.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2016 THE ADVOCATE
SU FROM PAGE B5 improved to 3-0 in SCAC action with three victories this past weekend at the Pirates' Varsity Field. They downed Austin College, 2-1, on this past Sunday Centenary, 2-0 on Friday; and Texas Lutheran, 2-1 on Tuesday, Sept. 13. This week, the Pirates, 4-3 on the year, will play at the University of Dallas at 3 p.m. Friday in Irving and at Colorado College at 1 p.m. Sunday. The hot and humid con-
ditions on Sunday made the Pirates' deep and talented bench even more invaluable against the Kangaroos. SU led 1-0 at halftime on a goal by Christian Lopez (assist Jake Swonke) and went up 2-0 on a diving header from Carlos Huntley-Jimenez in the second half. Austin scored its only goal at the 65:15 mark. Against Centenary, SU came out of halftime with renewed vigor and vision and was able to capitalize
on a transition goal as Huntley-Jimenez out-hustled Centenary down the field and placed a perfect crossing ball in to the 6-yard box to the awaiting Swonke, who headed it into the back of the net. Mason Tomasek added the final goal on a volley with his right foot. Bryan Brenner got credit for the shutout in goal. Two first-half goals lifted the SU to the victory over TLU. Swonke put the Pi-

rates up in the 27th minute. The sophomore took a feed from Lopez into the box, made a quick cut and then found the back of the net on a left-footed strike for his first score of the year. Two minutes later, Lopez was the beneficiary of an assist by Swonke and Andres Carreno-Mendez for the game-winning score. Swonke laid the ball off to Carreno-Mendez at the top of the box before it found the feet of Lopez on the right side. He then took a shot that deflected off the goalkeeper and into the back of the net to give the Pirates a 2-0 lead. WOMEN'S SOCCER: SU outscored Centenary and Austin College, 10-1, this week in SCAC action
to improve their conference record to 3-0. They jumped on Centenary, 6-1, and blanked Austin, 4-0. In action this week, SU will play at the University of Dallas at 5 p.m. Friday in Irving and return home to play Huston-Tillotson in a non-conference match at 1 p.m. Sunday. Just minutes into this past Sunday's game, SU seized control and never looked back in the win over Austin College. Kierstyn Luckock netted two goals while Hayley Miesse and Mady Akers added a goal apiece. Kylie Hunt and Mary Cardone split time in goal for a combined shutout. On Friday, Centenary shocked the Pirates with
an early first-half goal, but SU quickly answered with a deluge of first-half goals, leading to a 6-1 victory. Miesse had the Ladies' number all night as she netted a hat trick, including two first-half scores off corners. The other goals came from Malorie Lara, Audrey Silver and Layne Hengst. GOLF: Southwestern men's golf opened the 2016-17 fall season on Monday and Tuesday, Sept. 12-13 and finished in 16th place in a challenging, deep field at the Rhodes College Fall Classic at Tunica, Miss. Texas-Tyler edged the host Lynx, 578-586, for the team title in the 36-hole event. Cade Osgood, in his first collegiate appearance, led SU and finished tied for 20th with 149 strokes after shaving seven strokes off his opening round (7871). Matthew Christly finished tied for 33rd with 151 strokes (78-73) and Andrew DeHennis tied for 73rd (78-80) with 158 strokes. Devon Horne posted a 164 (80-84). The Pirates have a quick turnaround and will face an even more challenging group in their next contest as they competition in the Golfweek Invitational in Sandestin, Fla. beginning October 9th. The SU women will open their season on Monday and Tuesday at the AJ Jones Invitational at The Cascades in Tyler. CROSS COUNTRY: The SU men's and women's cross country teams will return to action Saturday in the Concordia Invitational at the Spicewood Golf Course in Austin. Source: SU sports information.
