Newcastle Chamber hands out 2015 Diamond Awards By Christina Corrales-Toy
In Mayor Steve Buri’s mind, the Newcastle City Council made one of its best decisions ever in 2013. That was the year the council voted to bump Newcastle Detective Christy Marsalisi from part time to full time. Marsalisi started as the city’s full-time detective in 2014. She is the primary reason Newcastle has seen a reduction in property crimes, Buri said. That’s why she received a 2015 Newcastle Chamber of Commerce Diamond Award. “She really had an interest in being a detective and solving crimes,, and that’s what she’s done very effectively throughout Newcastle,” Buri said. The chamber rolled out the red carpet for the community’s top contributors at the 2015

Diamond Awards ceremony Nov. 19. Marsalisi won the Mayor’s Award, given to a person who consistently volunteers his or her time and resources to make a positive difference in the Newcastle community. Overall, it was a big night for Newcastle staff members. In addition to Marsalisi’s win, Wendy Kirchner, the city’s community activities liaison, picked up the Customer Service Award. Kirchner won the prize given to a greater Newcastle area individual, organization or public employee that demonstrates an uncommon commitment and enthusiasm that enriches the community and its residents. She is responsible for facilitating the city’s slate of community events, including Newcastle Days and Concerts in
the Park. Additionally, Mayor Steve Buri won the Community Leadership Award, given to an individual who demonstrates uncommon initiative, caring and leadership in the community. Buri has served the city of Newcastle since 2007 as a councilman, deputy mayor and mayor. He will leave the City Council at the end of December, after he decided not to run for re-election. Longtime Olympus resident Sue Stronk won the Dennis Yarnell Inspiration Award. Stronk was recognized for working to make her neighborhood a better place. In addition to expanding the Olympus blockwatch, she also organizes community events, See AWARDS, Page 7
The Newcastle City Council will welcome two new faces come January. Community Activities Commissioner Linda Newing and Planning Commissioner Allen Dauterman will join the council after winning their races in the November election. Newing edged fellow Community Activities Commissioner Victoria Sandoval to win Position 1. She earned 1,149 votes, besting her opponent by more than 350. She will replace longtime Councilwoman Lisa Jensen, who decided not to run for reelection.

Issaquah seeks public input on school start times By Tom Corrigan
The Issaquah School Board wants the public’s help in deciding whether or not any changes in starting and stopping times for the local school day are desirable. They also need to determine if changes are feasible. “There certainly is a lot of energy around it,” said Superintendent Ron Thiele at an Issaquah School Board meeting Oct. 28. Thiele added that if the board wants to put changes in place for the 2016-2017 school year, they need to make a decision on the topic by March 2016. With that in mind, Thiele announced the district will conduct a survey of residents to be completed by consultants
Thoughtexchange. The actual start/stop time survey will take place in January, Thiele said. He added he is hoping for high levels of participation in order to gain a clear picture of the thoughts of the community. “It’s been an issue, really, for the last year,” said L. Michelle, district spokeswoman. Several surrounding districts have discussed, or are in the process of discussing, later start times, she added. The main argument is that school starts too early, especially for teenagers, who may simply need more sleep. Michelle talked about disrupting natural rhythms. At the recent board meet-

Back tracking Lake Boren: the old swimming hole By Rich Crispo What do we do when the temperature is 90 degrees? Sit in an air-conditioned house, go to an air-conditioned movie theater, take a drive in an airconditioned car, or maybe go to Renton’s Coulon Park and enjoy the water. In 1890, the kids of Newcastle went to Etta Cartney Lake while their parents went to work or did their chores under the hot sun. The swimming hole was along the northeast shore near a steep
unlucky young man ventured out before the ice was thick enough. He went through the ice. He was not hurt and the car recovered. The lake was part of the migration route for a salmon run that would come through Lake Washington, follow May Creek, continue up Boren Creek (formerly called Scottish Creek) and into Lake Boren. The salmon would then continue up China Creek to spawn. Milt Swanson recalled seeing many salmon in China Creek as he passed by in the bus on the way to high school in Issaquah (1932-1936). The run was stopped in the early 1950s when a culvert was placed under what is now 84th Street. There were more than
salmon in the lake. In 1940 a 3 pound trout was taken. After the salmon run was lost, the Department of Fisheries began stocking the lake with trout every year. Opening Day saw wall-to-wall boats across the lake in pursuit. The boat ramp on the east side of the lake was lost when Coal Creek Parkway was expanded.
As mentioned earlier, the north and south ends of the lake were swampy in the winter, but in the summer, livestock grazed to the north on the fertile ground of the Peterson Farm, and to the south, farmers grew crops such as potatoes. The first houses on the lake were built in the 1940s on the west side.

embankment. A large tree supported a rope swing that would drop the kids 20 feet. There was also a submerged tree farther out that the kids would swim to and stand on its end with their heads above water. Cartney was a young woman living in the area, and for a reason unknown to this author, had the local coal range named after her along with what is now called Lake Boren. (It had also been called Little Lake.) The lake was the recreation center for the residents and, along with serving as the local swimming hole, it was a great spot to fish. In 1883, the lake
was 90 feet deep. Today, the deepest part measures only 34 feet. Over the years, great amounts of run-off have come down China Creek and filled in the lake. There were flood plains to the north, south and east, and during the winter months, these areas became swampy. In fact, when the first railroad was routed down what is now Coal Creek Parkway, a trestle was constructed over the marshy area. When the standard gauge came in to replace the narrow gauge, the swamp was filled in and the trestle removed. The trains would pass by the lake about 15 feet above the surface of the water. In the winter, the lake would freeze and daring young drivers would take their cars out on the ice. One

Liberty fall sports season one for the ages
Time to evaluate school start times I am a senior at Hazen High School, though I now participate full-time in Running Start. I have experienced the consequences of the early start times in high schools that the Renton School District employs. I never thought I’d be the kid that falls asleep in class, but I found my head on my desk more times than I can count sophomore year. I missed 30 days of school that year — that’s one out of every six school days — due to illness and anxiety that was in part caused and exacerbated by poor sleep. To preserve my academic performance, I sacrificed my health to the 7:20 bell. Renton enforces one of the earliest start times in the state. Though most of Washington’s high-schools begin before 8 a.m., few dare to see students in their seats before 7:30. The National Sleep Foundation states “Adolescent sleep deprivation is largely driven by a conflict between teens’ internal biological clocks and the schedules and demands of society. Therefore, it makes sense to look at school start times.” The American Academy of Pediatrics recently recommended high schools delay the first bell to 8:30 or later. A study done in Minneapolis demonstrated that changiing from a 7:15 to 8:40 bell improved attendance and enrollment rates and decreased student-reported depression. Other advantages include better grades, fewer tardies and a decreased risk of drowsy driving. I bring this to your attention because I believe it is

ou’ll likely notice that this month’s Newcastle News sports section is larger than usual. We had to go big in what was a marquee fall sports season for Liberty sports teams. Patriot Athletic Director Loren Krogstad must be proud after his teams won two state titles and Christina excelled across the board. Corrales-Toy Let’s start with the swim and dive team. Coach Kris Daughters led her girls to a second straight championship, making Liberty’s one of the premier swim programs in the state. I watched Daughters’ teams hoist the first-place trophy both times. Last year, the title was Liberty’s before the meet even started, but this year’s meet was a nail-biter. Nearly every Patriot swam better on the season’s final day, and that’s what clinched the championship. The girls cross-country team technically won two state titles. Liberty got it done in the classroom and on the course, winning academic and athletic state titles. The boys didn’t do too bad either, capturing second at state. Liberty’s soccer team settled for third, but gave defending state champion Squalicum its best game. We didn’t even have room to mention the football team, which made its first state appearance since 2010; the volleyball team, which qualified for state for the second straight year; and the boys golf and tennis teams, two squads that impressed during the regular season but have to wait until spring for state. It was a big season for the 2015 Patriots, and it was a lot of fun to cover. Congratulations to all of the fall sports teams. I can’t wait to see if winter sports teams can keep it going. I’ve heard whispers from a few opposing teams and fans that the Patriots owe their success to the school’s 2A reclassification. Liberty previously played at 3A, before going down to 2A in 2014. My response is, “So what?” Liberty evened the playing field by dropping down a classification and facing schools its own size. The Patriots were always one of the smaller schools in 3A. It’s about that time again when schools need to reevaluate their classification sizes. I’m curious to see if Liberty will remain at 2A or go back to 3A. Either way, it’s hard to deny the success the Patriots have had at the lower level.

The Issaquah School District is seriously studying school start times, acknowledging that many people in our district want this change. In a recent article, Superintendent Ron Thiele commented that the student population’s possible need for sleep can’t be the only consideration. There is overwhelming data from our own Healthy Youth Survey that the vast majority of our teenagers are not getting enough sleep. The 2014 HYS shows that 58 percent of eighth graders, 80 percent of 10th graders and 84 percent of 12th graders in the Issaquah School District report sleeping less than eight hours on an average school
night. Given that the American Academy of Pediatrics, the National Institute of Health, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the National Sleep Foundation have stated that teens should get between eight to 10 hours of sleep each night, it seems to me that our adolescent student population definitely needs more sleep than they are currently getting. Why don’t teens just go to bed earlier? Most adolescents undergo a sleep phase delay, a biological tendency toward later times for falling asleep and waking up. You might ask, if school started later, wouldn’t students just go to bed later? Landmark research of over 9,000 students shows the students with later start times sleep longer. A change in school times will impact family schedules, after-school activity schedules, and yes, traffic. The good news is that many school districts around the country have made these changes; although it may take a little while for people to adjust to the new schedule, it has worked well, students are happier and healthier, and there are lower teen car crash rates. It is important to engage the community in a discussion, provide information regarding the science driving the change, and find out how the change will impact people’s routine in order to attempt to minimize disruption. However, the decision should not be poll-driven; the decision should be about setting a policy that allows most students to get enough sleep — a necessity, not a luxury.

the Renton community’s time to act. Our neighboring school districts are pushing large advocacy efforts. Issaquah is petitioning for an 8:30 bell. Bellevue and Mercer Island have created a steering committee to push the same start time. Finally, the Seattle Schools superintendent has proposed an 8:50 bell in high schools. Transportation conflicts are fixed by making elementary start times earlier, which pairs well with younger children’s internal clocks. The benefits in student performance and well-being that these school districts will reap mean that Renton cannot stay “ahead of the curve” by forcing its students to wake up more than an hour before their surrounding peers.

He said he decided to run for a council spot after seeing “how our city code can allow our Community Business Center to be overly developed with urban scale densities.” As an architectural planner and development manager, Dauterman said he deals with different municipalities and their codes every day, some-
thing that he said will aid him as he joins the City Council. Dauterman replaces Mayor Steve Buri, who declined to run for reelection. Current Council members Carol Simpson and Gordon Bisset each won re-election after running unopposed. Incumbents Anne

Dauterman won the Position 3 seat after challenger Rob Lemmon elected not to campaign.

From Page 1 ing, one mother, joined by her daughters, talked about how one was homeschooled, while the other catches a bus at 7:05 a.m. every weekday. That daughter gets up as late possible, about 6:40 a.m. More importantly, that daughter is often grumpy and just not herself, her mother said. The daughter regained her balance, so to speak, during a vacation, when she was able to sleep as much as she wanted and needed. The mother noted the second daughter sleeps later daily and generally seems in better health, both physically and mentally. Still, the student

population’s possible need for sleep can’t be the only consideration, Thiele said. There are numerous operational questions. School start and stop times can have huge effects on traffic, for example. And Thiele noted the question really is one of starting and ending the school day. By law, schools have to offer so many hours of instruction. If the school day starts later, it also must end later. “What are the implications operationally?” Michelle asked later. “How do we run our buses?” Those questions and others need to be answered prior to any decision being made, she added. “We’ll be working on all this pretty quickly,” Michelle said.

Laughing all the way
where the digital display informed me that there was either a rip in the space/time continuum, or the timekeeper responsible for flipping the DST switch on millions of mobile phones had erred, or we had royally screwed up the simple act of Falling Back. I wanted deeply to believe in the first two possibilities, but after dialogue lifted from a bad sitcom — So what time is it really?,
It’s about time
We have four clocks in our home, if you don’t count the digital readouts on nearly a dozen pieces of electrical equipment. That means that every power flicker lasting longer than a nanosecond requires us to re-set everything, a task of which we never tire. And if you believe that, I also have a friend from Nigeria who is a princess and could use your help. We also have a voice messaging system that refuses to believe it’s not 2008, the year that we bought it. No matter how many times we change the date, it still insists on informing us in an unruffled and certain voice that it’s 2008. To mitigate the tedium of the futile reprogramming process, I pretend that I’m a rap disk jockey and make the voice stutter as it rolls through the years to 2015, which it will later reject
when I’m not paying attention.
So getting our home to accept the changes of Daylight Savings Pat Detmer Time can take us the better part of a day, saves us nothing, and requires a scramble to find the manuals that came with the electronics that don’t change automatically. On Nov. 1, The Sainted One and I had breakfast, read the Sunday paper and reminded each other that we needed to set the clocks back. Then we went our separate ways to grocery shop or work in the garage and yard, each secretly hoping that the
other would take on the Herculean task of digital switchover. But every time I went near a clock that was battery-operated, I set it back an hour, figuring that I’d done my part since the patient Sainted One is far better suited to reading instruction manuals written by people for whom English is a second language. Whenever I came in the house and glanced at the family room clock, it seemed to be midmorning. After a while I began to believe that the 10 a.m. hour would never

pass, but chalked it up to time-change fatigue. The Sainted One, meanwhile, was feeling a bit peckish and thought it must be close to lunch, a football game and a beer. When he checked the same clock, he questioned both his dietary needs and his beerdrinking habits. Perplexed after yet another check of the clock, I finally turned on my cellphone

Patriot girls bring home a pair of state titles Liberty runs to 2A cross country crown
Second straight championship for swimmers
By Christina Corrales-Toy
By Christina Corrales-Toy
The Liberty High School team bus was nearly empty when it returned home from the state cross country meet in Pasco. Most of the Patriots runners just weren’t ready to say goodbye after a historic championship performance Nov. 7. “They all stayed,” coach Mike Smith said. “They all wanted to stay together in Pasco.” Who can blame them? It is where the best team in school history won a girls state title, and the boys picked up a secondplace trophy last weekend.
Liberty coach Kris Daughters sent her team a group text message the evening of Nov. 13. “Go to bed,” it read. At 8:30 p.m. the night before the final day of the Class 2A state swimming and diving meet, that was easier said than done, said Liberty seniors Ellie Hohensinner and Lauryn Hepp. Sleep was hard to come by as the Patriots felt the pressure from a Squalicum team looking to dethrone the 2014 state champions. Squalicum looked poised to edge Liberty after the meet’s first day at Federal Way’s King County Aquatic Center. “We knew it was going to be super close,” Hepp said. “We knew that we had some points to make up.” It came down to the very last race, but Liberty rallied to win its second straight 2A state title Nov. 14. The Patriots did not dominate as they did in 2014 — Liberty won only two events, as opposed to seven last year. But after losing star athletes such as Cecilia Nelson and Mackenna Briggs to graduation, the Patriots knew they had to employ a different strategy to repeat, Hepp said. “We lost some strong swimmers, so this year, we had to kind of come together as a team a little more and make up some
Girls The Liberty girls team sat atop the Class 2A state cross country coaches’ poll for much of the season, but that had little bearing on Smith’s mind when the team arrived in Pasco. Smith said he stopped trying to predict what would happen at state, because too many factors always come into play, and things frequently seemed to go wrong for Liberty in the past. “I just told them, ‘Do what you can do and if everything goes according to the plan, then good things are going to happen,’” he said. Good things did happen. Liberty took the 2A title with 75 points, besting perennial champion Sehome. Junior Brigette Takeuchi was Liberty’s top finisher, placing 11th

The Liberty High School cross country girls team holds its Class 2A state team championship trophy Nov. 7 in Pasco. overall in 19 minutes, 19.8 seconds. The team’s average time was 19:41.7. Sophomore Sophia Lindstrom (15th, 19:34.3), senior Tyra Christopherson (17th, 19:36.4), senior Carlyn Schmidgall (22nd, 19:45.9), junior Samantha Kelderman (36th, 20:12.1), junior Kelsey Takeuchi (41st, 20:19.5) and junior Sophia Morgan (62nd, 20:45.8) rounded out the pack. It’s the program’s first state championship and just the second time the team has reached the podium. Last year, the girls earned third place. The girls made the jump from third to first thanks, in part, to a teamcentric culture facilitated by Schmidgall, who took it upon herself to keep the Patriots focused, Smith said. “She did really well considering she put the team on her back the entire season and kind of sacrificed her game to make sure that they all had a great result,” Smith said. Liberty also won the 2A academic state title, thanks to the girls’ combined 3.917 grade-point average. The WIAA’s
Scholastic Awards Program recognizes the team with the highest GPA among all Washington high schools in their enrollment classification. Winning teams receive a special plaque. “I was super proud,” Smith said of the academic honor. “School and running, it’s a tough balance. I could never imagine trying to keep up with them when I was in school.” Boys The Liberty boys saved their best for the biggest stage. “Every single boy at state had their personal best,” Smith said. “Every last one of them ran their very best ever.” Liberty took second overall at the 2A state championships. Andrew Cooper put a cap on a stellar high-school career with a fourth-place finish. Sean Szymanski (13th, 16:13.5), Jake Knoblich (16th, 16:15.2), Nicholas Siegfried (35th, 16:38.7), Luke Knoblich (77th, 17:12.4), Michael Daly (91st, 17:27.4) and Hunter Good (105th, 17:39.4) were the other Liberty finishers.
Patriots soccer take third at state By Pam London Special to The Seattle Times Playing in their final game in a Liberty uniform, the Patriots seniors got to be the story Saturday afternoon. Jordan Hemmen opened the scoring and Liberty beat Ellensburg, 2-1, to claim the 2A third-place trophy. Sophomore Makenna Carr got the game-winner in the 75th minute, dribbling by two players and goalkeeper Jocelyn Egan to score.
“We started off the game with all the seniors playing together. It doesn’t always happen, but we got to play together one last time as a team,” Hemmen said. Hemmen, the KingCo 2A/3A co-MVP and Virginia Tech commit, hit a one-bounce volley from 16 yards that looped into the top-left corner in the 13th minute. The Patriots (15-4-2) placed third for the fourth time in school history. Ellensburg finished 18-3-1.
The streaks remained intact, though not without a fight. Sarah Hulbert scored the game-winner in the 37th minute and Squalicum beat Liberty 2-0 in the 2A state semifinals Nov. 20 at Shoreline Stadium. The defending 2A state-champion Storm extended its winning streak to 30 games and has not lost in 46 matches, a run dating to 2013. “Definitely a great opponent,” said Liberty coach Tami Nguyen of Squalicum. “All credit

The team aligned together like never before Saturday, Hohensinner said. The group was spirited, enthusiastic and determined, she added. It showed. To win the title, the Patriots had to be better than they were Friday. Several swimmers improved Saturday and moved up in the final races. Hohensinner and freshman Reegan Weber got the momentum going in the 200-yard freestyle. Weber, seeded seventh, improved to fourth in the finals, while Hohensinner, seeded third, moved up a spot to second. Junior Sydney Hartford went from eighth to seventh in the 50 freestyle; diver Belle Wong improved four spots to take seventh in the 1-meter diving competition; Hepp was all smiles after finishing third in the 100 freestyle, moving up five spots from her preliminary seeding; freshman Rachel King improved one spot to take sixth in the 100 backstroke; sophomore
to them, though, I think they just played a great game and unfortunately we just came out on the other end of it.” After an end-to-end opening to the game, Hulbert laced a shot from the top of the box into the upper left corner of Sydney Argosino’s goal off an assist from Kim Dorr. “I think it was definitely (a momentum-turner),” Nguyen said. “We hadn’t really had a lot of chances on goal and I think just not really being able to build our attack was frustrating, and then to get that goal at that time was crucial.” Kimberly Hazlett doubled the
Abby Russell went from sixth to fifth in the 100 breaststroke; and Weber improved a spot to fifth in the 500 freestyle. The relay teams kicked it up a notch, too. The 200 freestyle relay team went from a fourth seed to a second place finish, while the 400 freestyle relay team improved a spot to win the title. “There’s something about the air in the state final — the podium, the music; it’s something,” Hohensinner said. “It’s definitely a very cool vibe in here.” Hohensinner was the Patriots’ only individual winner. She repeated as 500 freestyle champ with a time of 5 minutes, 07.66 seconds. Russell also finished third in the 200 individual medley; and Hepp took second and Sierra Lesnik eighth in the 100 backstroke. The 200 medley relay team opened the meet with a second place finish. Hartford, Chloe Weber, Taylor Clay and Emma Ream all swam in consolation finals. View the full 2A results at http://bit.ly/1MRNkA8.
Storm’s lead in the 54th minute from 25 yards, assisted by Kendra Steele. The strike gives the Portland-bound senior 34 goals on the year. Maddy Mak was everywhere for the Patriots, getting down for slide tackles defensively and moving forward into the midfield late in the game as Liberty chased a goal. “(Maddy) was one player who I felt like didn’t come out with nerves, she just came and went for it right from the get-go, so I’m proud of her for that,” said Nguyen. “It’s hard to do in big games like this but she certainly did.”
