Bridging First Responders and Communities by Ann Marie Ludlow

Georgetown's National Night Out started

for Chief Wayne Nero and Mayor Dale Ross at San Gabriel Village, a senior community near the downtown area. The Chief and Mayor did not announce their schedule ahead of time so the NNO-goers were pleasantly surprised to have honored guests. The pair visited seven parties in the course of the night. Chief Nero reported the department had 61 parties registered in the city, which was up about 50 percent from last year. "We wanted to try to have a first responder at every party, and everyone who is not on patrol today is doing something for the Night Out program," the Chief said. Parties began about 4:30pm and continued until after dark in most places. The San Gabriel Village seniors also included a fundraiser at their event; selling chili plates to provide donations to the Susan G. Komen foundation for breast cancer awareness. The Georgetown Housing Authority shared party space with the Boys and Girls Club and had about 250 coming and going throughout the night. They had a full buffet and a D.J. as well as a community resource fair hosting several service providers from Georgetown like The Caring Place and Opportunities for Williamson & Burnet Counties. Mayor Ross said to several party groups, "As mayor, I attend about 150 events in a year and this one is the most fun. I get all the best feedback directly from our neighborhoods and it is really great to know what is going on in all of them. It is also a good opportunity to get outside and get to know your neighbors. You can learn to look after them and they after you, so I am proud we are still the second safest city, in Georgetown, and we are constantly looking to solve even more issues." Chief Nero spoke several times of the importance of National Night Out. "The whole point of tonight is to get neighbors knowing neighbors; to get them all to be involved and engaged with each other. Nosy neighbors are my favorite thing because they do a lot of my job for me— getting people to know the families and faces of their neighborhood so they know when something is out of place." He also encouraged everyone to call 9-1-1 when they see something suspicious, no matter how trivial it might seem. "That's what we are here for and that's why you pay taxes, so we can be here to answer the call. And we also want to hear about it if you do not receive the service or response that you needed." Mayor Ross agreed, "Chief Nero has transformed our force into one without mediocrity and with beat police who love you very much. Our officers work the same districts every day, so they know what is out of place." Christ Lutheran Church had a great turnout for their first party. Pastor Cheryl Lamaak hopes to build on the participation year after year. With chili, live music and face painting, they have a good start.

The deployment of the tactical response vehicle from Leander was unusual, and Nero explains any time a suspect is armed and potentially dangerous, regardless of the location, it is standard operation. The Georgetown vehicle was unavailable at the time, but there are three such vehicles in the county as part of an agreement with the chiefs of Georgetown, Leander and Cedar Park. "We are very pleased that it was a one-day story, because our officers did everything perfectly and by the book—no one was hurt. There was an incident, we investigated, got a lead, and executed the apprehension. There was no escalation in the news and that is the result of good and consistent training. Our focus is always building relationships and training, so when we have incidents like these, we have built up a trust to facilitate quick and safe solutions." Mayor Ross again thanked the citizens of Georgetown for the training facility and the training that made it happen. He also added there will be 500 more peacemaker signs coming out this week paid for by an anonymous donor. Keep an eye out for updates on WilcoOnline.com and our Facebook page.

Pastor Charlie Turner and wife Amanda played host to about 80 attendees on their home street. Turner said, "We have 36 kids just on this street, so it's like this most nights. This is just another great excuse for us to get together."

POLICE UPDATE

Having the police chief as a captive audience between parties was a great opportunity to talk about recent events in Georgetown, namely the apprehension of kidnapper Silvestre Franco-Luciano, who is also wanted for murder in Dallas.

Williamson County Brown Santa program, which provides assistance to families in Williamson County living outside the geographical city limits of any town or city within Williamson County that does not provide a similar program. Brown Santa donations are utilized to purchase toys, books and other items needed to make the children’s Christmas brighter. It is a registered corporation in the State of Texas that is operated under the direction of the Brown Santa Board of Directors and was granted non-profit tax exemption under 501 (c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code. More information is available on their web site at www.wilcobrownsanta. com. The last man hanged in Williamson County was escorted out of the jail just before his appointment with the gallows in 1906. Tom Young, a dirt poor cotton chopper, had beaten his niece to death during the previous year. In March 1906, the scales of justice weighed in, and Young was escorted out of town and hung in front of a large crowd.

Randalls Coming To Williams Dr.

Randalls Food Markets will be expanding to Georgetown with a new store in the new Oak Meadows Marketplace at Williams Dr and Jim Hogg Rd. Groundbreaking is projected in January. "Randalls is excited to become a part of this vibrant and thriving community," said Sidney Hopper, president of Randalls. "We look forward to providing an exceptional shopping experience to Georgetown residents." Randalls will be 57,655 sq/ft and provide traditional groceries plus a fuel

station, drive-through pharmacy, bakery with gourmet cakes, Starbucks, and a convenience store with snacks, drinks and to-go items. The deli will have a large seating area and fresh-prepared food (pizza, burgers, sushi, etc.). Randalls offers natural and organic products throughout the store but will also have full-service meat and seafood counters as well as an extensive selection of wine and beer with an emphasis on local offerings. "We are eager to meet the needs of our customers and create new jobs in Georgetown," said Hopper. "We project we will hire approximately 165 full and part time employees." Randalls is part of the Albertsons Companies, which last year gave more than $270 million in food and financial support in the communities they serve.

USO Gala: Celebrating 75 Years USO Fort Hood held a gala at the Sun City ballroom Oct 1 to commemorate the past, present and looking forward to the next 75 years. Attendees stepped back in time at a USO-style camp show and enjoyed the sounds of Kent Dugan’s Republic of Texas Big Band music. Palace Theater players also presented a “USO Extravaganza” to the delight of the guests. Proceeds from the event went to the Fort Hood USO and the service men and women stationed there. USO’s Isabell Hubbard said everyone loved the music and the show and all the feedback was very encouraging; “We had our previous gala in Belton but we got great feedback from Sun City residents and they

asked if it could be closer, so we decided nothing would be closer than Sun City itself. We were happy to accommodate so many people who were really interested and wanted to support us.” Although this was a special anniversary, the USO holds a gala every year and they are already planning next year’s event. “We hope the committee will agree to have it in Sun City

again next year and we are also planning a Spring event also open to the public— something casual with jeans and boots.” Visit FortHood. uso.org to stay up to date on their events. Pictured left are 277th District Judge Stacey Mathews with WWII and Korean War Veteran Dr. Gonzalo Garza. Dr. Garza is a Georgetown resident and the son of Mexican-American migrant workers. Although he didn't begin school until he was ten years old, he earned a GED, a Bachelor's and Master's degree. He served in the Marine Corps and was awarded a Purple Heart and Bronze Star for his military service.

THE PAST IS PRESENT

Celebrating our Hispanic Heritage

by Mickie Ross

Last month, The Williamson Museum opened its first community-based exhibit, “Nuestra Comunidad: Williamson County’s Hispanic Roots”. With stories, photos and oral histories by Hispanic residents throughout the county, the exhibit tells a fascinating story of the past. It focuses on religion, education and economics along with social and political activities that enriched the community. In 1747, Spanish priests settled the area, founding the short-lived San Xavier missions. Few settlers arrived for the next century. In the early 20th century, Hispanic farmers and ranchers like the Dominguez, Garza, and Zamora families began to settle around Georgetown. The long struggle of the Mexican Revolution began in 1910, sending a wave of immigrants into Texas. The Gonzales family arrived in Taylor, the Carlin, Amaro, Rubios, and Lopezes in Round Rock, the Zavala, Miranda, Navarrette, and Bracamontez in Georgetown, to name a few. As the Hispanic population grew, so did the need for churches. Stories from Margaret Miranda tell of the early days when men and women were seated on opposite sides of the church. The church even planned activities for students after school. The Mexican school in Georgetown served students in the early grades. The

start dates varied, as many families in the area were migrant workers who followed the crops in the fall. In the early 1970s, Scherry Chapman, Patsy Bracamontez, and Lois Vasquez worked with the Georgetown school district to develop a kindergarten for migrant workers (photo) beginning in mid-September. Eventually the program merged into pre-school for low income students. Social events were often centered on the Diez y Seis, or Fiestas Patrias, celebrations honoring Mexican Independence Day each September (photo). Hispanic service clubs were organized by the 50s, and impacted the community in many ways. Lorenzo “Shorty” Valdez became the first Hispanic councilman in Georgetown, followed by many other public servants to the city. Round Rock elected Lorenzo Rubio as their first Hispanic councilman in 1968, 7 years before Austin ever elected a Hispanic council member. As one of the fastest growing population groups, many are unaware of the long history of Hispanics in this area and the lasting contributions. From pushing for desegregation, fair wages and labor practices to keeping their heritage alivethe roots of the Hispanic community run deep in Williamson County. Please visit the exhibit, through May 2017, to discover their stories. ~Photos courtesy The Williamson Museum

The Pink Ribbon Culture October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month...

and an effort to raise awareness and reduce the stigma of breast cancer through education on symptoms and treatment. Supporters hope greater knowledge will lead to earlier detection of breast cancer, which is associated with higher long-term survival rates, and that money raised for breast cancer will produce a reliable, permanent cure. The pink ribbon is the most prominent symbol of breast cancer awareness and you are likely to see it on everything from fire engines to NFL players throughout the month. Other than skin cancer, breast cancer is the most common cancer among American women; one in eight (and one in 1000 men) will be diagnosed with it in their lifetime. Every year in the U.S. over 240,000 women get breast cancer and more than 40,000 die from the disease. On a positive note, nearly 90 percent of women diagnosed with breast cancer survive for at least five years. Early detection, screening, and personalized treatments are key when it comes to saving lives and there are more than 2.8 million breast cancer survivors alive in the country today. Marjorie Gallece (below) is the Senior Certified Patient Navigator at the Breast Cancer Resource Center of Austin, which serves Austin and surrounding areas in Central Texas. A navigator is everything from a mentor to a big sister for patients who have been diagnosed and want help or just company. Her clients call her "brilliant" and if she doesn’t know the answer, she knows where to find it. Her advice for supporters; “Pink has an emotional appeal and consumers ought to think about whether the color clashes with the bigger message. Just putting a ribbon on something triggers the consumer to buy it

but not everything with a pink ribbon is a fundraising piece. If possible, do your homework before writing those checks. Never assume that everything with a pink ribbon benefits those diagnosed with breast cancer. As people are making a donation of time, money or energy to do a walk or participate in an event, it’s important that they know where the donations are really going and how it will be put to use.” Georgetown and surrounding areas have many activities and events to promote awareness and celebrate survivors. The St. David’s Georgetown Hospital will have a balloon release and program October 21. To find out more specific information, contact Donna. Langbein@stdavids.com. All throughout October, if you visit any Kerbey Lane Cafe and order a pink pancake, you benefit the Breast Cancer Resource Center. You can also order a Raspberry Lemonade Berliner Weisse from Red Horn Coffee House and Brewing Co. and 100% of the sale will be donated towards BCRC. Red Horn created a special pink beer; 13010 W Parmer Ln #800 in Cedar Park. There are also many support groups locally. In Sun City, the Georgetown Women’s Support Circle meets from 1-3pm on the fourth Monday of every month at the Cowan Creek activity center. You can also use St. David’s breast cancer risk profiler online any time at StDavids.com.

Survivor Stories…

CHARLOTTE BOLEY– In 1985, Charlotte had a lumpectomy followed by radiation. She moved to Sun City in 2003 and had a recurrence in August 2010 followed by a mastectomy. She is cancer-free today and is under the care of her Georgetown oncologist Dr. Brian Shimkus, whom she says, is an outstanding physician. Her experience in Birmingham was mitigated to some degree by her participation in Camp BlueBird. BlueBird is part of a network of camps for cancer patients that provide a kids’ camp experience for kids, adults and families to aid in their recovery and dealing with difficult treatments. In Texas you will find Camp Carefree in Houston for adults, and several others for families at www.CancerCamp.net.

DIANE SMITH – Diane has had the unique survivor experience of treatment and awareness across many years of research. She was diagnosed 30 years ago and had a mastectomy. After being cancer-free for three decades, her doctors found two tumors last summer and she had a second mastectomy. She says the world of treatment has changed quite a bit from the first time. While her first surgery meant a 4-5 day hospital stay, and follow up plastic surgery months later, this time she had both surgeries at in the same procedure; surgeons side-by-side, and she was only in the hospital for one day. Diane feels very fortunate to have seen her children grow up and she is proud to say, “I lived through it once, and I can do it again!” To prove it, by the time you read this, she will be enjoying a cruise in the Caribbean.

The Last Word

OCTOBER 6, 2016  THE ADVOCATE

PUBLISHER'S CORNER

Forth Comes A Strumpet Called ‘The Press’ And lo! In meretricious dress Forth comes a strumpet called ‘THE PRESS’ Whose haggard, unrequested charms Rush into every blaggard’s arms. This lament was penned in 1800 by a Federalist poet who was more than a little angry that his party had lost an election to Republicans due to, by his reckoning, the missives of the press. It appears little has changed in the last 200-plus years. As the 2016 election draws closer, the frenzied rantings of nearly all media forms are becoming as common as Bill Clinton performing an oratorical obsequity for some Banana Republic or half-crazed middle eastern dictator. No matter what your political persuasion, you’d have to practically be declared mentally incompetent to deny the left-wing diatribe, vitriol, and prodding of Lester Holt during the first Presidential debate. Holt, a purported “journalist” must have been channeling a starving pit bull based on the way he went straight for Trump’s jugular—while practically licking Hillary’s face through the entire debate.

And speaking of missing it, how about CNN? The only way these people could further propagate a leftwing, communist/socialist agenda would be speaking in, say, Russian or Chinese. Seriously, it’s about over for what used to be known as the “unbiased press”. If you were to look up Democratic Toadie in the dictionary, you’d likely find a picture of Chuck Todd. While I’m on the subject, what kind of person would name their son “Major Garrett”? Born in 1962, now a CBS “reporter”, Garrett came up through a school system that was already inculcated with ideology that the USA was actually a force for evil around the world, while denying the very Christian foundation on which this country was built. So, like many of these others, at least he comes by it honestly—the product of a totally dishonest education system in which bureaucratic layers of Federal propaganda were heaped upon local schools. I could write an encyclopedia with illustrations of how badly America has been battered by the left. I am, however, hopeful that in this election Americans will finally stand up and say, “We’re mad as hell, and we’re not going to take it anymore.” The feistiness (along with

the slobbering and spitting) from the far left, and the return of fire (not literally) from the right, seems to indicate so. We’ll know in just over a month. If I were you, I wouldn’t put too much stock in the polls. It appears, like everything else he’s done, Donald Trump, always the shrewd businessman, has outsmarted the far left (and the press) by speaking directly to the American people. If Hillary should win, it will guarantee that our children will never “live a better lifestyle than their parents”, as we continue to invite illegal aliens into the country and let them live off the fruits of our labor. We’ll add millions more ne’er do wells (along with those who honestly deserve welfare) to the rolls, and we’ll pay millions more to sit home with pretend disabilities (along with those who really deserve that help). We will kowtow to Europe and the Middle-East, and, who knows, we might even have a UN Embassy in Washington DC. It’s now or never, folks. Do you really want to support refugees—while, at the same time, try to figure out which ones are planning to kill us at a little league game, at the mall, or on an airplane? This is an election for the ages. Vote like your life depends on it—it very well may…

Musings I'm channeling my inner Steven Wright this week. I did have an article about politics and Donald Trump, but I'm sick of thinking about it. And I also found out I have a great-great uncle named Trump on my mom's side. No idea who the G-G-U might be related to but just in case, I don't want to say any negative things and possibly lose my visit to the White House. So I'm wondering... since it's Fall, should pregnant women or people with a heart condition have to sign an EMS waiver before going into a corn maze? Should we give men a conversion chart of apologies when they start dating or get married? For example, "Good=Good; Fine=Bad." If you're late, buy flowers. If you're late because you had drinks with your ex-girlfriend, see Jewelry Chart. If you slept with her, call Don Hewlett. "We need to talk... I think you need to spend more time playing golf and I really wish you'd tell me which sports channels to add to our cable package," said no woman ever. If the dentist is more than ten minutes late for your appointment, I think you should be allowed to eat Oreos while you wait. Usain Bolt would get a ticket for running in a school zone. I couldn't live the life of a dog. You're always naked, you don't understand what anyone is saying, people always want to touch you and you spend your day hoping

someone will scratch your butt. If Obama lived in Kenya would he be their first white President? "Cleave" means to unite and also to separate. "Fat Chance" and "Slim Chance" mean the same thing. Why do we spend a lot of money to water our grass so it will grow just so we can cut it every week? If you want someone to really smile when you take their picture, tell them "I love you" instead of "say cheese." The number of people in the world who are older than you will never get any larger. Do you think the lobsters on the Titanic high-fived each other when they heard the crash? The greatest benefit to cell phones is not communication or information. It's knowing that only the world's most depraved jackwagons will still push you into a pool. If I majored in German in Germany instead of English in Virginia and was born in 1928 rather than 1968, I could have been an actual grammar Nazi. How long before YouTube is full of depressing videos from GoPro cameras found next to piles of bones in caves, at the bottoms of cliffs, inside snowbanks and next to men who slept with their ex-girlfriends? Why is there braille on a drive-up ATM? The object of golf is to play the least amount of golf. Would Anthony Weiner take more suitable photos if his name were Anthony Nicesmile? I guess we should just be thankful his name isn't Anthony Serialkiller.

Ambi-textrous: the word to describe my condition during the 6-15 minutes between taking an Ambien and total sleep when I send absolute nonsense messages on my phone. So if I interpret the news correctly, when a police officer shoots an unarmed white suspect, we get to burn Connecticut? We all know if you have second thoughts about a trip to Indian country, it's a Reservation reservation. But you might not realize if Captain Kirk started a rental car company aboard ship it would be the Enterprise Enterprise enterprise. The Devil has never actually made anyone do it. What if he was the one who invented the Internet and he's just been grounded and doing community service for a really, really long time? (Don't argue chronology; everyone knows there's no time in heaven.) I also decided there is a second reason to hate Facebook—besides all the annoying notifications and popups when you download a game. I can't hardly complain about how busy I am when my daily news feed shows I am on level 197 in CookieJam or Piano Tiles. I am always surprised at the names popping up on my page and what games they are apparently obsessed with or inviting me to play with them. Everyone needs a little down time, of course, but I think maybe I'll link the National Register instead. I can at least fake looking smart. Big Brother strikes again.

Efficient Eagles Pop Patriots GHS Scores On 8 Of First 9 Possessions In 56-29 Victory By Galen Wellnicki Sports Editor

The Eagles Tyrin Stone picks off a pass intended for the Patriots Zion Hester in Friday night’s District 19-5A battle at GISD Athletic Complex. Georgetown defeated East View, 56-29, to take a 4-1 edge in the all-time series between the two cross-town rivals. Photo by Russell Rinn.

East View Looking To Run The Table In Final Four Games By Jon Whittemore Advocate Correspondent

After losing to crosstown rival Georgetown, 56-29, last Friday night at the GISD Athletic Complex, East View looks to shore up a defense that is allowing 39 points per game in district play and reestablish its ground attack during this last month of the season. The points per game average includes a shutout against Bastrop Cedar Creek on Friday, Sept. 23. The Patriots now stand at 2-4 for the season and 1-3 in 19-5A competition. District games remaining are against Pflugerville Connally, Hutto, Elgin and Bastrop. With three district loses already, realistically their chances for post-season play are slight. However, to talk to the coach, winning out is a realistic goal. “We believe that we have a good offense if we can run the ball and stay patient,” coach Rob Davies said. “Against Georgetown we got behind early and resorted to passing (28 second half attempts) trying to score quickly and win the game. We scored 29 and just need to tackle and cover better from here on out. I believe that we can win the rest.” That campaign will begin at home at 7:30 p.m. Friday when the Patriots tackle unbeaten Pflugerville Connally, the district's surprise team to date. The Cougars were a consensus pick to finish sixth in the final standings. However, Connally, under Jason Cecil, have rolled off five consecutive victories, including wins over district opponents Hutto (35-30), Elgin (28-14) and Bastrop (42-21). EV cont. on B6

Statistically, Georgetown is scoffing at those long-held beliefs that ball-control football is the key to success. The Eagles are 4-0 in District 19-5A after bouncing arch-rival East View, 56-29, this past Friday night at the GISD Athletic Complex. In those four victories, coach Jason Dean's Eagles have outscored the opposition by an average of 22 points a game despite running a combined total of 83 fewer plays than the opposition, including a scrimmage play differential of 28 in the victory over the Patriots. GHS has been outgained in three of those four contests. "We're being efficient with our offense," GHS coach Jason Dean said recently. In the win over East View, GHS scored seven touchdowns on 52 scrimmage plays, including four touchdown passes. That's a touchdown every 7.4 plays. The Patriots averaged a touchdown every 20 snaps, not counting kicks. Georgetown, 6-0 on the season, led 42-8 late in the first half, putting the Patriots (2-4, 1-3 in 19-5A) in the uncomfortable position of having to ditch their usually potent running attack for the passing of senior quarterback Cameron Nowell, who rallied to the challenge with 27 completions in 45 attempts for 282 yards. "We got off to a great start," Dean said of an offense that scored on eight of its first nine possessions. "We did what we wanted. Defensively, we gave up yardage, but we made the stops when we needed to. We also took advantage of a pair of turnovers." The presence of veteran quarterback Chandler Herman and standout receiver Beau Corrales, who at times this season looks like Bull Corrales, and multi-purpose junior Caden Leggett working behind a strong line make offensive efficiency much-more likely. "We played really well tonight," Herman said. "Chandler was very accurate and efficient (23 of 30 for 267 yards)," Dean elaborated. "We had possibly our best running game of the season, and Luiz Diaz continued to kick the ball well. As for stopping their running game (especially sophomore Zion Hester on the edge), we worked hard all week on that area." "We worked on the stretch play and pretty well knew what they were going to do," GHS defensive coordinator David Patterson said. The Eagles have moved up to No. 9 in The Old Coach 5A rankings and held steady at 13 in Texas Football's Top 25. They also improved in The Associated Press Class 5A balloting, standing 12th in points, but still 17 points from cracking the top 10. The road to the playoffs for the Eagles will get much tougher over the final four starts of the season. They face Rouse (3-2, 2-1) at 7:30 p.m. Friday at Bible Stadium in Leander before returning home to face Cedar Park (5-0, 3-0) on Friday, Oct. 14. They visit last-place Bastrop Cedar Creek on Friday, Oct. 21, take Oct. 28 off, and then close the regular season at home against Pflugerville Connally on. Nov. 4. "We've got to stay focused," Herman said. "We’re confident, but we know these games are going to be tough. We need to play hard and stay sharp." Dean sees the Rouse Raiders as a tough opponent—especially on the road. The GHS cont. on B7

GHS Gets Payback Over EV, 3-0 By Galen Wellnicki Sports Editor

Maybe it's not quite time to consign Georgetown's hopes to reach the Class 5A state volleyball playoffs to the same shelf as such extinct species as the passenger pigeon, woolly mammoth and saber-tooth cat. Coach Jenny Richardson's Lady Eagles entered last Friday's showdown with East View standing 3-5 after the first round of the District 19-5A title chase. Georgetown was a decided underdog in that contest on its own hardwoods. The visiting Patriots roared into Eagle Gym with a 7-2 record, including a 3-0 sweep of Bastrop on Tuesday, Sept. 27. However, the district form chart, proved meaningless on rivalry night with the two schools also colliding in football at the GISD Athletic Complex just a few 100 yards away. GHS, which lost the first meeting 3-1 at East View, charged back to sweep the Patriots, 3-0 (25-17, 25-16, 25-16)— an aggregate 75-49. East View's victory in the first meeting was the program's first ever over the Eagles. After Friday, the series stands 9-1 in Georgetown's favor. "I'm so proud of the girls tonight," Richardson said. "The program got the sweep (varsity, junior varsity and two freshman victories). The varsity played incredibly well. I couldn't be happier for the girls. They worked so hard in practice this week. It paid off big." GHS did have Tuesday off with its mandated district bye. The upset victory put the Lady Eagles in sixth place, but just two games out of fourth place behind a front-running trio of Rouse (10-0), Cedar Park (8-1) and East View (7-3). Hutto and Bastrop Cedar Creek entered this week with district marks of 6-4 and 5-5, respectively. Georgetown faces a critical week in its campaign

to reach the postseason. They played last-place Pflugerville Connally (010) on the road on Tuesday and then faced a test with Rouse at 6:30 p.m. Friday in the Raiders' gym. Rouse downed the Lady Eagles, 3-1, earlier in the campaign. At 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, GHS will entertain Hutto. The Lady Hippos won the first meeting 3-1. GHS, now 17-20 on the year, was led against East View by junior Emily Ellis and senior Camryn McGinnis with 10 and eight kills, respectively. Senior Corinne Novak had nine kills for the Patriots, who had an .071 hitting percentage for the match. The Lady Eagles hit .158. While GHS came into the match off an open date,

East View had blown up the Bastrop Lady Bears, 25-19, 25-21, 25-15, behind an offense that hit .243, including 12 kills by Novak and seven each by Annie Burke, Camryn Miller and Madison Heald. The Patriots, who went aceless against GHS, had 10 against the Bears—four by Heald, and three each by Burke and Novak. Asked what she liked about the Patriots' performance in their first match of the second round, coach Kara Del Bosque said, "I was very proud of the way we played. We did not get lethargic or complacent." East View had its open date on Tuesday and played 6A Harker Heights, which

Carrillo, Rowe Shine At McNeil GHS Heads To Westlake Meet On Friday

East View placed two runners—junior Guillermo Carrillo and freshman Mia Rowe—among the top 10 finishers in the Class 5A varsity divisions of the prestigious McNeil Invitational this past Saturday at Old Settlers Park in Round Rock. Carrillo finished fourth in the 5,000-meter boys race with a time of 16 minutes, 7.12 seconds—18.04 seconds behind winner Carter Floyd of Humble Kingwood Park. Patriots’ sophomore Luis Aldana missed finishing in the top 10 by two places, finishing 12th in 16:23.48. The East View boys placed 18th in the 42-team field with 475 points—the best showing by the five 19-5A teams in the field. Sanger outscored Willis, 111-124, for the team title. In the 5,000-meter girls event, Rowe was clocked in 19:30.29 in a field topped by an 18:30.69 by Prosper's Abby Williams. Prosper dominated the team race scoring 30 points as it captured four of the top five positions with its fifth runner placing 18th. Marble Falls was a distant second with 110 points. East View finished 23rd in the 39-team girls competition with 618 points. "I am very pleased with how the team is improving," East View coach Michael Burton said. "Mia Rowe attacked the race and set the tone of all of our teams to follow. She finished the race only 4 seconds off of East View's school record. "Both Guillermo Carrillo and Luis Andana broke our previous school record of 16:30 set in 2013 by Jose Pena. They got out hard and never backed down. Freshman, Alvin Gusman (17:27), stepped up into our No. 3 spot with his varsity debut and personal record by 50 seconds. "Even though we were down some of our top varsity runners, the rest of the team picked up the slack" Georgetown took the weekend off as Eagles

coaches Andrew Braun and Kellye Richardson elected to rest their teams prior to the climactic races of the season. This coming weekend, Georgetown and East View will switch roles. After taking this past weekend off, Georgetown will run Friday night in Austin Westlake's Chap Invitational at SE Metropolitan Park, while East View is scheduled to take this coming weekend off.

SU Volleyball, Football Teams Return To Action

FOOTBALL: After taking a week off, SU will return to action when it plays Austin College in the SCAC opener for both teams at 1 p.m., Saturday at the GISD Athletic Complex. The Pirates (1-3) will go into the first game of the conference double-round-robin coming off a 42-22 loss at Wisconsin-River Falls on Sept. 24. SU also will be trying to break a two-game losing streak after beating McMurry, 24-17, in their second start of the season. Prior to the loss to Wisconsin-River Falls, the Pirates dropped a 33-22 decision to East Texas Baptist at Marshall. The Kangaroos will come to Georgetown with a 2-2 record that includes a 23-17 loss to Southwestern Assemblies of God in their last start. Austin's victories were against Howard Payne, 19-17, and Whittier, 30-17.

SU REPORT Last season, SU and Austin traded road victories. The Pirates won 35-28 in Sherman, and the Roos prevailed 20-17 in Georgetown. In other SCAC action Saturday, Trinity (2-2) will visit Texas Lutheran (0-4) at 6 p.m. in Seguin. MEN'S SOCCER: Alex Newell scored an unassisted goal at the 104-minute mark in the second overtime to give SU a 4-3 victory over Schreiner on Sunday in Kerrville. The victory improved the Pirates to 5-2 in the SCAC and 6-5 on the season. They will remain on the road this coming weekend to play Centenary in Shreveport at 5 p.m. Friday, and Austin College in Sherman at noon on Sunday. After going down 3-0 early in the second half, SU rallied to force overtime against Schreiner on Sunday. The Pirates scored three goals in a five- minute span including back-to-back goals from Jake Swonke to cap the comeback. SU's first goal was scored by G. Huntley-Jimenez off an assist by Mason Tamasek. The two teams were scoreless in the first overtime. Three and a half minutes into Friday's contest in San Antonio, top-ranked Trinity (10-0) took control with an unassisted goal by Laurence Wyke as the Tigers went on to down the Pirates, 4-0. The Tigers got an assist from the Pirates, collecting their second score on an owngoal by SU. WOMEN'S SOCCER: It was a futile weekend for SU as they dropped a pair

of 1-0 decisions to Schreiner on Sunday afternoon in Kerrville and to No. 3 Trinity in San Antonio on Friday night. The losses dropped the Pirates to 4-2 in the SCAC and 6-4 for the season. They will play Centenary at 7 p.m. Friday in Shreveport and Austin College at 2 p.m., Sunday in Sherman. Schreiner took a 1-0 win over SU, scoring in the 89th minute, as the Pirates dropped their second consecutive SCAC match. A defense-focused match led to just eight Southwestern shots and six by Mountaineers. In Friday's battle, Trinity's only goal came in the fifth minute as it was able to get past the Pirates' stingy defense. MEN'S TENNIS: SU freshman Alexis Dimanche ended his run in singles play with a loss in the semifinals at the ITA Regional Championships in Tyler on Monday morning. Dimanche dropped a 6-3, 6-1 decision to Texas-Tyler's Arthur Fagundes, who was the tournament's No. 1 seed and went on to clinch the singles title. The Pirates' fall season also wrapped up and the team will begin preparing for dual-match campaign which begins in February. WOMEN'S GOLF: SU shaved five strokes off its team score to move up one spot to finish in third place among 11 teams at the Al Jones Jr. Memorial Tournament in at the Cascades in Tyler. Leilani McDaniel showed well in her first collegiate tournament as the top finisher for the Pirates

and third overall. Her total 36-hole score of 156 (77-79) trailed tournament winner Jessica Varner of Centenary by six strokes. Valentina Olivieri finished in 19th (79-86). Mikayla Miller improved eight strokes off day one to finish with a 168 (88-80) and tied for 21st. Paige Greenan was consistent with an 85 on both days to come in tied for 26th, while Katherine Dyo took 11 strokes off her first round to finish tied for 29th (91-80). The Pirates finished with a two-day total of 653 behind UT-Tyler, 635; and Concordia, 651. Southwestern will get a true idea of where they are on the national stage as they head to Sandestin, Fla., for the Golfweek Invitational beginning October 9. MEN'S GOLF: The Pirates also will compete in the three-day Golfweek Invitational, which begins Sunday at the Raven Golf Club in Sandestin, Fla. CROSS COUNTRY: The SU men's and women's teams will compete in the University of the Incarnate Word Invitational at the Live Oak City Park in Live Oak on Saturday.

JUNIOR VARSITY GEORGETOWN SILVER 49, EAST VIEW 6 GHS—Cooper Bell connected on two touchdown passes to Wyatt Childress and one to Noah Drum. Wyatt Childress also threw a TD to Drum. Giovani Beltran and Jared Pierce both had a rushing touchdown. "The offense played great," coach Richard Beaty said. "Nick Petter blocked well all night and had a long run in the fourth quarter. The offensive line did a great job protecting Bell as well as opening up lanes for the running backs. "The defense shut East View’s offense down all night. Tyler Knowles played a great game at defensive tackle, and returned a blocked punt for a touchdown. Mason Meyer also played well on the D-Line, as well as Gage Leggett and Noah Thompson in the secondary.

EV—The Patriots scored on a 65-yard pass from Carlos Ochoa to AJ Mays. Offensive MVP—Mays. Defensive MVP—Isiah Knight. Special teams MVP—Tyler Lambert ROUND ROCK CEDAR RIDGE SOPHOMORES 36, GHS BLUE 20—"We came out and did a great job competing early," coach Nathaniel Funk said. "We were actually winning 20-14 at the half, but they wore us down with a combination of depth and mistakes that we made. We lost our composure and they ended up winning. . . . The wide receivers and quarterbacks played well." GHS scoring --Jackson Sioson, 9-yard touchdown pass to Matt Johnson (Ryan McGann kick); Sioson, 70-yard run; Sioson, 3-yard run (Xavier Torres run). FRESHMAN GAMES GHS BLUE 28, EAST VIEW NAVY 21 GHS—"The Blue team was down

early 14-0 but roared back with 28 straight points," coach Jarrell Flores said. "The defense got a huge late interception from Hank Harris as the offense was powered by two touchdown runs from Roland Moreno to go along with touchdown passes from Jacob Ramos and Jackson Tingley. Both quarterbacks found Seth Basey for their respective touchdowns on the way to victory." GHS WHITE 30, EAST VIEW NAVY 0 GHS— "The White got off to a hot start with Chris Martinez throwing a halfback pass on the first play the Eagles had the ball to Isaiah Fillmore," Flores said. "Quarterback Brayden Wilson threw two touchdown passes to Dillon Bradley and Isaiah Fillmore with a Luke Clark touchdown run sandwiched in between—all in the first half. Chase Nations led a fierce Eagles defense that pitched a 30-0 shutdown over the crosstown rivals."

OCTOBER 6, 2016  THE ADVOCATE

EV FROM PAGE B1 The Cougars are led by senior quarterback Robert Patterson, who has produced 1,222 yards—397 on the ground and 825 in the air. That's an average of 6.94 yards per snap. Connally is sixth in the district in total offense with an average of 350 yards a game, but is third in team defense with an average yield of 284.8 yards a game. It will be facing an East View attack that has produced 445.7 yards a game and owns the district two leading rushers in sophomore Zion Hester (86-690, 8.02) and junior Torrie Davis (52-467, 8.98). Patriots’ senior quarterback Cameron Nowell is fourth in the district in passing with 1,139 yards. In the two previous meetings, the two schools split victories—Connally won 57-0 in 2012 and East View prevailed 56-35 in 2013. In the Georgetown game, the Patriots allowed the Eagles to score on their first seven possessions and eight of the first nine times they touched the ball. East View did tighten the score right before half on an 11-yard strike from Nowell (27 of 45 for 262 yards) to senior wide receiver Mason Klinger but had already given up 42 points in the first 24 minutes of play. Nowell’s set a school record for passes attempted in a single game. The Eagles led 42-15 at the half. With regard to the defense, Davies was bluntly objective, “They (Georgetown) have a good offense," he said. "They did a great job of taking advantage of some physical mismatches that made us look bad. We were in position to stop them multiple times, but they simply ran right through us. They are big,

strong and well-coached. “Our schemes were okay as far as putting our kids in position. I didn’t think we competed defensively as well as we could have in

the first half, but did much better after intermission. We were in position but just didn’t execute the stop.” Bright spots for the Patriots were few and far be-

tween. Sophomore runner Zion Hester who has been torching 19-5A defenses so far this year was held to 96 yards of total offense (1241 rushing, 6-55 receiving). Hester scored the Patriots' first touchdown midway through the opening period on an 18-yard scamper, but curiously only touched the ball only three times in the second half. Torrie Davis returned from a leg injury and contributed a respectable 36 yards on nine carries and had two catches for 29 yards. He also barreled over the goal line twice for twopoint conversions. Klinger, returning from knee surgery, saw his first action of the season and caught four balls, including the 11 yarder with only 0:07 showing before halftime. Junior receivers Marcus Maldonado (7-77) and Donald Walton (5-63) both had solid games. Nowell continued to improve. He had 42 yards scrambling on eight attempts in addition to completing 27 passes for 262 yards. Nowell did throw two interceptions and missed on a throw from his own 7-yard line to a wide-open Issac Ochoa that likely would have added 93 more yards and another score to his totals. Ironically, in this losing effort, the Patriots had 15 more yards in total offense than did the Eagles; they just didn’t cross the goal line very often.

A critical look at the District 195A football race: SHOO-IN CEDAR PARK (5-0, 3-0)—The defending state champions stand No. 1 in The Associated Press 5A Poll and fourth in both The Old Coach and Texas Football rankings. . . . Defense is the prime calling card for the Timberwolves, who have allowed just 33 points in five starts and 146.0 yards a game. CP has shut out Vandegrift, Bastrop and Rouse. Twenty of the points yielded by the T-Wolves were to East View in a 35-20 win. The offense isn't bad, averaging 30.4 points and 416.8 yards a game. The Timberwolves are riding a 21-game victory streak. The remaining schedule: Oct. 7—Cedar Creek. 14—at Georgetown. 21—Pflugerville Connally. 28—at Hutto. Nov. 4—Elgin. THE PRIME CONTENDERS GEORGETOWN (6-0, 4-0) — Conventional wisdom says that a 5-3 record will guarantee a playoff spot and with last-place Bastrop Cedar Creek (1-5, 0-4) still to play another win seems virtually assured, but the other three games are against the current cream of the district crop—Rouse, Cedar Park and Pflugerville Connally. Possible injuries to key offensive performers could be a problem, if they strike. The Eagles have shown a very efficient passing attack, but in its first three district starts had trouble stopping standout running backs. The remaining schedule: Oct. 7—at Rouse. Oct. 14—Cedar Park. 21—at Bastrop Cedar Creek. Oct. 28—Open date. Nov. 4—Pflugerville Connally. PFLUGERVILLE CONNALLY (5-0, 3-0)—The Cougars are the surprise team in the district after being picked sixth in preseason assessments by Texas Football and The Old Coach. The schedule is somewhat questionable, but Hutto, 35-30, and Elgin, 28-14, were quality opponents. Hutto pushed Georgetown into overtime. Cougars look strong on defense with an average yield of 284.8 yards and a big playmaker in quarterback Robert Patterson. The big hurdle is the schedule with games against Rouse, Cedar Park and Georgetown. The remaining schedule: Oct. 7—at East View. 14—Rouse. 21—at Cedar Park. 28—Cedar Creek. Nov. 4—at Georgetown. ROUSE (3-2, 2-1)—A preseason playoff pick that owes its losses to quality opponents Round Rock Westwood, 52-38 and Cedar Park, 31-0. The Raiders, who prefer being the bull in the china shop, still have big tests in Georgetown, Connally and Hutto in a row. Rouse has produced about 3/5ths of its offense on the ground. Senior quarterback Michael Forester is a weapon, but the Raiders have a tendency to yield yardage—387.2 yards a game. The remaining schedule: Oct. 7—Georgetown. 14—at Connally. 21—Hutto. 28—at Elgin. Nov. 4—Bastrop. STILL WARM HUTTO (3-2, 1-2)—The Hippos have a strong offensive group and rolled over Bryan and Bryan Rudder, scoring 100 points, in non-district action, but have come up short in district games with Georgetown, 35-32, and Connally, 35-30. They have a win over Elgin, but face a tough five-game close in the nine-team district with Rouse and Cedar Park along with Bastrop, East View and Cedar Creek. Sophomore quarterback Chase Griffin

appears to be a player with a strong future. The remaining schedule: Oct. 7—at Bastrop. 14—East View. 21—at Rouse. 28—Cedar Park. Nov. 4—at Cedar Creek. HOPEFUL/SPOILER EAST VIEW (2-4, 1-3)—The Patriots already have Rouse, Cedar Park and Georgetown in their rearview mirror along with a win over Cedar Creek. Head coach Rob Davies' team has its back to the wall if the 5-3 theory applies, but he feels his team has the ability to sweep its final four games. That task includes backto-back games with Connally and Hutto along with potentially dangerous Elgin and Bastrop. The Wildcats and Bears could be tough opponents. East View may have the district's best 1-2 running punch in sophomore Zion Hester and junior Torrie Davis along with a more-thansolid performer at quarterback in Cameron Nowell. The remaining schedule: Oct. 7—Connally. 14—at Hutto. 21—Elgin. 28—at Bastrop. Nov. 4—Open date. IN A HOLE/SPOILERS ELGIN (1-5, 1-3)—A team with potential—especially on offense—that needs to sweep its final four games to have a solid shot at the playoffs. After beating Cedar Creek, the Wildcats have lost consecutive district starts Georgetown, Connally and Hutto. The non-district losses were to two quality opponents in Harker Heights and Brenham. The mountain for thre Wildcats is tall as they may have the toughest closeout with Rouse and Cedar Park. Defense looks like a liability as Elgin is coughing up 403.5 per start. The remaining schedule: Oct. 14—Bastrop. 21—at East View. 28—Rouse. Nov. 4—at Cedar Park. BASTROP (1-5, 1-3)—The Bears already have lost to Cedar Park, Georgetown and Connally and own a win over Bastrop ISD neighbor Cedar Creek. Games with Hutto, Elgin, East View and Rouse is going to make it tough for the Bears to run the table. The lack of offense has been a major problem for the Bears as they average only 18.8 points a game and 206.2 yards s game. Senior Jovahn Jones, a fast and strong runner, is one of the district's best weapons, if healthy. The remaining schedule: Oct. 7 --Hutto. 14—at Elgin. 28—East View. Nov. 4—at Rouse. OUT IN THE COLD BASTROP CEDAR CREEK (1-5, 0-4)—The Eagles only win was over winless 4A Division II Smithville, 28-26. CC has been outscored by its four district opponents 47.5 points a game to 5.5 points a game. The Eagles are eighth in the district in offense (215.2 yards a start) and ninth in defense (405.8 yards a game). Unfortunately, the Eagles close their schedule with four strong offenses, including Cedar Park and Georgetown. In its five season of football, Cedar Creek owns an 8-37 record. The remaining schedule: Oct. 7—at Cedar Park. 21—Georgetown. 28—at Connally. Nov. 4—Hutto. DISTRICT 20-5A The four playoff teams from 19-5A will play the four playoff representatives from 20-5A in bi-district. District 20-5A, an eight-team alignment, still has five playing dates with no real trends having developed. Brenham and Magnolia are both 2-0, but there are 20 games still to play. —Galen Wellnicki

GHS FROM PAGE B1 Raiders were shut out by defending state champion Cedar Park, 31-0, but have put 65 and 58 points on the board in their wins over East View and Cedar Creek. "They are a physically imposing team," Dean said. "They're bigger up front on defense than anyone we've played. They have big strong kids throughout their lineup. Their quarterback (senior Michael Forester) is 6-6 and they have three 6-2 wide receivers. "They want to pound the ball from several different formations and then try to catch you with a play-action pass. "(Defensively) they run a 3-4 like our last two opponents, but don't apply as much pressure as East View." Asked what the Eagles need to do to be successful, Dean answered, "Run the football effectively, take what the defense gives us, protect the football and cause some turnovers." Against East View, GHS took a 21-8 lead in the first

quarter. Herman capped a five-play 46-yard drive with a 2-yard run with eight minutes and 19 seconds remaining in the first period and Diaz kicked his first of eight extra points. Hester put East View ahead momentarily with runs of 19 and 18 yards to cap a 65-yard push, and junior Torrie Davis, returning from injury, powered in for the two-pointer. GHS finished the period with an 8-yard scoring run by Leggett and a 49-yard pass from Herman to Corrales. The Eagles scored the initial three touchdowns in the second period—a 16-yard pass from Herman to Corrales, a 9-yard run by junior Erik Anderson, and a 17-pass from Herman to Leggett. The Patriots closed the gap to 42-15 with seven seconds left in the first half as Nowell completed an 11yard pass to Mason Klinger, who also was coming off the injured list. Reed Honshtein added the extra point. Georgetown outscored

Tryin Stone and Trace Glanville picked off passes. Numerous penalties hampered both teams at times and the Patriots suffered from three of five punts that went for 16 yards or less.
