Sammamish city staff share common concerns with Issaquah school officials BY DAVID HAYES

dhayes@sammamishreview.com

Traffic, construction and student population concerns were the topics of discussion during a joint meeting May 25 between the Issaquah School Board and the Sammamish City Council. Mayor Don Gerend came armed with an agenda list of 10 topics to steer the conversation between the two administrative staffs of mutual interest. School board member Lisa Callan expressed her pleasure in having the opportunity to share common interests with the city’s staff. “It’s the importance of being

able to talk about how schools impact traffic, traffic impacts schools, start times’ impact, end times’ impact, parents and kids deciding to drive to school, lighting and sidewalks. How it all plays together, how it’s all interconnected.” Superintendent Ron Thiele and City Manager Lyman Howard exchanged updates on current projects. For the City of Sammamish, Howard spoke of three planned projects encompassing 240 acres around the town center: n The Southeast Village, which includes 75 townhomes and 6,000 square feet of living and working space. n The Village, which will

have 159 apartments and 110,000 square feet of commercial space. n The Plateau 120, which will add another 92 apartments and 14,500 square feet of commercial space. With that much growth taking place in the commons area of Sammamish, Thiele confirmed the school district’s student numbers show the Issaquah School District’s biggest growth is in Sammamish.

Of the $533 million bond package recently approved by voters, about $97 million will go toward building new schools. “Our goal is to always put schools nearest population centers. Our biggest growth right now is Sammamish. Not yet on the valley floor, but it is coming. So, ideally, we’ll place new schools in the SEE CONCERNS, PAGE 2

Robert Joseph Scott, who built two community orchestras in Bellevue and Sammamish, died May 19 of cancer. He was 71. Born in Hermiston, Ore., Mr. Scott — who was known by his middle name — was a self-made maestro who originally trained as an oboist. He enjoyed conducting so much that he decided to start his own orchestra after studying with Henry Holt (Seattle Opera), Mikael Scheremetiew (Thalia Conservatory), and Vilem Sokol (University of Washington). When he placed an ad in a Bellevue community newspaper, inviting musicians to a rehearsal Sept. 14, 1967, Mr. Scott attracted 65 players — launching what would become the Bellevue Philharmonic Orchestra. While working fulltime as a florist, he recruited volunteers to help launch the nascent BPO as its music director, conductor and general manager. After three successful decades, the BPO sought new leadership in 1997; it would close 14 years later. (It was later restructured, emerging SEE DIRECTOR, PAGE 5

Sammamish section of the district,” Thiele said. He added his administration had been researching available property long before the bond, but since its passage their search has become more serious. “We’re trying to narrow down a list of possible sites in the coming months,” he said. “We don’t talk about publicly about specific sites in as what that would do to the price.” He pointed to housing projects going in along IssaquahPine Lake Road, near where both he and board president Suzanne Weaver live. He finds it shocking how fast that subdivision is selling out. “Clearly for us, we’re very, very fortunate some people had the foresight to put Sunny Hills expansion on a previous bond, because that allows us to absorb some of that growth. We’re going to need one or two new elementary schools in that area,” he said. With that much growth, city staff members expressed concerns about additional traffic and pedestrian safety along the school routes. One of the concerns expressed by Councilman Bob Keller is parents adding to the traffic by

dropping off and picking up their children. “With schools like Pine Lake Middle School and Pacific Cascade Middle School on main arterials, is there anything that could be done with so many parents picking up their kids, adding to the bus traffic?” he asked. “We’re constantly open to the idea of safer walking routes and better transportation flow,” Thiele said. When Metro made cuts to Eastside bus routes, Sammamish felt it. City staff members, in their search for replacement solutions, looked toward the school district’s busses to fill the gap in service. Board member Marnie Maraldo found that interesting. “That’s an intriguing idea that they looked at our buses and go ‘there’s transportation,’ rather than looking at the Bellevue model of using Metro for their students,” Maraldo said. “They’d be using our school buses for the general public. It’s a very innovative thought.” Another area where Gerend sees an opportunity to work with the school district is the future use of the former Mars Church building, which the city purchased last year. “Nestled within those three high schools (Skyline, Eastlake

“We found a surprising concern with early elementary start time. But our biggest pushback came from the high school community. With a 3:55 p.m. release, there were concerns with after-school activities, field times, jobs and active families. And there were concerns what that does to traffic.” Issaquah School District Superintendent Ron Thiele discussing changes to bell times

and Eastside Catholic) is the Mars Church, where we’re trying to get higher education in there. If we do get higher education in there, it could potentially be a center for Running Start,” he said. Gerend then sought updates from the district on the Legislature’s levy cliff. If a fix is not presented, it could result in the Issaquah School District losing $14 million in its next two-year budget planning. An obviously frustrated Thiele told Gerend his guess was as good as theirs. “The hard part for us is not knowing what the Legislature

SAMMAMISH REVIEW is going to do. The hardest part right now for me personally is the uncertainty with this. Really difficult to do long-range planning when you don’t know what’s going to come out of the session and what it means for us,” Thiele said. District financial officer Jake Kuper had his own interpretation of how the Legislature is handling the potential shortfall. “They put a ‘hokey majokey’ fix in omnibus that if by April 1 they don’t reach an agreement, they’ll extend the levy authority for one more calendar year,” he said. “Unfortunately, prior legislatures can’t bond a future legislature to a certain action.” Weaver, as a member of the levy campaign committee, shared what she fears most if the Legislature does take action. “What I’m very fearful is going to happen,” Weaver said, “is there’s not going to be new revenue. Rather, the state will appropriate the levy, call it state money, rearrange it, and say, ‘See, we didn’t raise your taxes. We funded education.’ Then local districts will have some levy authority, but it will up to us to explain why we raised their taxes. I’m not looking forward to that.” Finally, Thiele updated city leaders on school bell times. He said the community did

not reach a consensus on a proposed change for the 201617 school year that would have inverted the starting times for high school and elementary school. “We found a surprising concern with early elementary start time,” Thiele said. “But our biggest pushback came from the high school community. With a 3:55 p.m. release, there were concerns with afterschool activities, field times, jobs and active families. And there were concerns what that does to traffic. I’m sure you’re all well-aware of 228th when three high schools get out.” Thiele directed the administration to have a thought exchange — there were 11,000 participants and 29,000 thoughts — and decided to make no change for 2016-17. The district has hosted four public meetings to share the results and seek input so Thiele can make a decision for the 2017-18 school year by December. Gerend saw this as another opportunity to work with the school administration. “We’re coordinating with the Lake Washington School District with their start times. We with the city feel obligated to coordinate with schools, especially with that one little area and so many schools,” Gerend said.

You learn amazing things about people in the police blotter

O

ne of the more entertaining duties I have at The Issaquah Press is writing up the police and fire blotter. Most of the reports filed are pretty mundane — there’s a surprising number of false alarms or suspects gone by the time the officer arrived. One of the challenges of writing these reports is coming up with a funny, but tasteful headline to draw the reader in. Instead of just another “theft” headline, “ironic theft” sounds more intriguing, especially since jewelry was stolen from a home on Northwest Jewell Lane. One subscriber wrote to us to let us know she became a subscriber simply because of these funny blotter headlines. But not everything is funny, especially vehicle prowls. The reason there are so

many is it’s usually a crime of opportunity where thieves take the path of least resistance. It David Hayes never ceases to amaze me the number of cars that are not even broken into. Rather, the criminal simply opens the unlocked door to the vehicle’s plunder. About that plunder — who leaves thousand-dollar items in plain sight? Laptops, jewelry, CD collections. If they ain’t nailed down, they’re gone. And don’t think a locked door is ample deterrent for a determined thief. It’s easier than you think to jimmy a door lock or just smash and grab and take stuff through a glassless window.

REVIEW Published every Thursday by The Issaquah Press Group 1085 12th Ave. NW, Suite D1 | P.O. Box 1328 Issaquah, King County, WA 98027

One trend I’ve seen lately is an increase in the numbers of diligent or concerned citizens. To a fault. Over the last few summers, it only took a few pets left in sealed cars that become hotboxes of death in the simmering heat before the public started to take notice and report potential offenders. Unfortunately, lately not a single dog in distress call was warranted. While the public has gotten more diligent keeping an eye out for bad pet parents, the pet parents themselves have gotten the message. Most have taken steps to leave windows down and bowls of water. Frequently, when a concerned citizen reports a possible dog in distress, the officer finds a happy pup. The concerned citizen also seems to be quicker to report “suspicious” behavior of their

fellow man. One citizen reported spotting someone they didn’t know standing outside their neighborhood’s home. Police responded and discovered the guy needed to get to know his neighbors — the suspicious man was indeed his neighbor standing out front of his own home. Another lady spotted someone acting suspicious driving through her neighborhood. Police tracked down the suspicious driver only to learn he was a pizza delivery guy. After one report this week, I have to ask — how careful do you have to be? A fella finds a plastic, toy gun in his yard. He calls the cops to confirm it’s just a toy. They arrive and indeed confirm the gun is a plastic toy and dispose of it. It is a dangerous world we live in. But sometimes the danger is misinterpreted.

Especially when it comes to cell phones. Last month, a man was confronted and frisked by police after a report of him acting suspicious. Finding no weapons, the man admitted he’d been waving his cell phone around in anger while trying to get a signal. And in April, another cell phone user was causing a commotion in front of Barnes and Noble. He was mad at his phone and was spotted throwing said phone on the ground, thinking that would stop an unwanted download from occurring. The officer kept his sense of humor and simply told the man to be nicer to his phone in the future and sent him on his way.

Bellevue upends Eastside Catholic Crusaders are boys lacrosse state runner-up BY NEIL PIERSON npierson@sammamishreview.com

GREG FARRAR | gfarrar@sammamishreview.com

Skyline senior shortstop Connor Knutson (3), pictured in a game against Mount Si earlier this season, was a key part of the Spartans’ state tournament drive that culminated in a 2-1 win over Kentwood for the Class 4A championship May 28 in Pasco.

Connor Knutson, Danny Sinatro carry Spartans to first 4A state title Baseball: Skyline 2, Kentwood 1

BY DOUG DROWLEY Special to The Seattle Times

Connor Knutson teamed with Danny Sinatro to make a smart defensive play in the sixth inning, and Knutson pitched lights-out in the

final frame as Skyline edged Kentwood, 2-1, to win the Class 4A baseball title May 28 at Gesa Stadium in Pasco.

Knutson was called on to replace starter Jack Rooney after Kentwood put two runners on to start the sixth. Before he got an out at the plate, Knutson wheeled and fired the ball back to shortstop Sinatro, who was cov-

ering at second. The inside turn and pickoff caught Isaac Hegamin off guard and he was tagged out. “We had a double steal on, and on the same pitch they SEE BASEBALL, PAGE 14

Rain was pelting the turf, but the Bellevue Wolverines made sure the Eastside Catholic Crusaders’ offense dried up in the second half. Bellevue rallied for the final three goals on May 28 and earned a 7-6 victory over Eastside Catholic in the boys lacrosse state championship game, which played out in front of an estimated crowd of 3,900 at rainy Starfire Sports Complex in Tukwila. “All the credit goes to Bellevue because they came out and they played excellent, tenacious defense,” Eastside Catholic coach Chuck Goodman said after his team was held to one second-half goal. “It was unrelenting.

Skyline’s Brandi Hughes culminates track career with two titles BY NEIL PIERSON npierson@sammamishreview.com

GREG FARRAR | gfarrar@sammamishreview.com

Skyline senior Brandi Hughes vaults over a fence during her preliminary heat in the 300-meter hurdles May 27 at the Class 4A state track and field championships in Tacoma. Hughes won titles in both the 300- and 100-meter hurdles.

Brandi Hughes had a clear vision heading into Star Track XXXIV and the Skyline High School senior made it happen despite less-thanideal conditions. Breezy weather at the Class 4A state track and field championships made it difficult for Hughes to record her best times, but she walked away with titles in the 100meter and 300-meter hurdles to close her prep career at Mount Tahoma Stadium in Tacoma. “I’m super excited that I

was able to take two wins,” said Hughes, who will compete next year at Tulane University. “That was the goal and I’m glad I achieved it.” Hughes nearly broke her own meet record of 14.10 seconds in the 100 hurdles – set last season – but held off friend and rival Nikki Stephens of Issaquah for the win on May 27. Hughes finished in 14.12, Stephens in 14.61. “Nikki did an awesome job,” Hughes said. “She was pushing me, running faster, so I’m glad she was there, too.” The following day, the

weather was even less cooperative as Hughes simply tried to avoid making a big mistake in the 300 hurdles final. Her time of 44.02 wasn’t a personal best, but it was nearly a second ahead of runner-up Karlee Stueckle of Emerald Ridge. “You get to the last stretch and you’re fighting the wind, trying to get over the hurdles,” she explained. “My whole race was just thrown off by the wind.” With Hughes leading the way, Skyline’s girls had a solid meet, scoring 26 SEE TRACK, PAGE 14

Eastlake boys, girls squads place in top four at state golf tourney The Eastlake golf teams finished their seasons on a high note May 25 with a pair of top-four finishes at the Class 4A state championships. Eastlake’s boys scored 90 points for second place at Richland’s Meadow Springs Country Club, while Eastlake’s girls finished in fourth with 80.5 points at nearby Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco.

Fellow senior Maddie Nelson, who will play at Dartmouth, shot 145 for fourth place. Bellarmine Prep (135 points) won its seventh straight 4A title, with Camas in second and Union in third. The Eastlake girls had two other competitors in Pasco but neither made the cut. Lauren Fisher shot 90 in her state debut and Bethan Eames, a two-time qualifier, shot 97. Eastside Catholic sent two participants to the 3A girls

advantage. Bellevue’s Augie Fratt, who had a game-high four goals, capitalized shortly thereafter with a shot past backup keeper Ethan Schriever. “My hat’s also off to Augie Fratt,” Goodman said. “He’s a tremendous player and … not only did he score, but he also settled the ball at the right time and he ate up a lot of clock.” The Crusaders’ final chance at forcing overtime ended with a turnover in front of the Bellevue goal. The Wolverines quickly advanced the ball past midfield, called timeout and ran out the remaining seconds. EC had the lead for the majority of the match. After winning the opening faceoff, the Crusaders needed only 42 seconds to beat Edelhertz as Bryce Atwater found an open

tournament at Spokane’s Indian Canyon Golf Course. McKenna Canty and McKenzie Storie both improved greatly in their second rounds as the Crusaders scored 48.5 points for ninth place. Canty shot 88 and 78 to tie for ninth place, while Storie shot 94 and 83 to tie for 23rd. Southridge won the 3A girls team title and Central Kitsap’s Brittany Kwon was the individual champion, cruising to a five-stroke win with a two-day total of 150.

Chase Bultez. Goals from Fratt and Matthew Marino put Bellevue ahead briefly but the Crusaders answered late in the first quarter as Eric Prologo assisted an Atwater tally. Prologo, Bultez and Jack Sercu then scored three consecutive goals for EC in the second period, putting their team’s halftime lead at 5-4. Atwater’s second goal of the game – a creative flip over his shoulder off a rebound chance – put the Crusaders ahead 6-4 early in the second half. But they didn’t score again. Matte, who will play for the University of Denver next season, was a big reason why the Crusaders nearly pulled off the victory. He made 13 saves. “The thing that impresses me the most about Josh is he truly,

truly enjoys lacrosse and he truly enjoys being a goalie,” Goodman said. “It takes a very special mindset from a young man like him.” While the Crusaders came up one game short of the big prize, the future appears bright as the program has established itself on the short list of annual title contenders. “A lot of the kids right now, they’re brokenhearted because they really wanted to grab the brass ring,” Goodman said. “But in the whole scheme of things, the improvement from year to year is something the school should be proud of, the program should be proud of, and now we have our younger youth players that have a reason to look up to the program that’s growing ahead of them.”

Skyline finishes 2-2 at state fastpitch tournament BY NEIL PIERSON npierson@ sammamishreview.com

The Skyline Spartans finished with a 2-2 record at the Class 4A state fastpitch tournament, the program’s first trip to state since 2004. Coming off their title-winning efforts at the KingCo Conference tourney, the Spartans (19-7) started fast at state, held May 27-28 at Spokane’s Merkel Sports Complex. They used the right arm of junior pitcher Caroline Bowman in their opening game, a 6-0 victory over the Curtis Vikings. Bowman allowed three singles and one walk, striking out 12. Bowman got help at the plate from Lauren Lo, who went 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, three runs scored and two RBI. Molly Spaniac doubled twice and drove in three, while Annika Hildebrand and Cara Harnick each had two hits. In a quarterfinal match against

Snohomish – a team they’d lost to early in the season – the Spartans fell into a 5-0 hole after two innings and lost, 6-3. The Panthers went on to win the 4A title over Woodinville. Bowman homered in the loss, but Snohomish got long balls from Alyssa Simons and Rylie Wales. Skyline dropped into the consolation bracket and was forced to play a third game on the tournament’s opening day. Central Valley held a 5-0 lead through five innings, but the Spartans scored seven times in the sixth to defeat the Bears, 7-5. Lo and Bowman each homered and drove in two runs. Shayna Swanson was 2 for 3

with a double, run and RBI. Bowman threw 121 pitches to get the win, striking out three and walking two. Three of the five runs scored against her were unearned. Skyline had a chance to stay in contention for the third- or fourthplace trophy on May 27 but dropped a 6-4 decision to the Jackson Timberwolves. Facing one of the state’s top pitchers, Sophia Frost, the Spartans collected 13 hits, including a double from second baseman Camille Goo, but stranded 10 runners. Bowman and catcher Maddie Peters each went 3 for 4 with a run scored, and Goo was 2 for 4 with a run scored and an RBI.

had an inside-turn pickoff play called,” Kentwood coach Mark Zender said. “If they don’t run that play, I think we have a great chance to steal it and it’s a whole different game.” But the Spartans didn’t have a play planned out. “That was all Connor and Sinatro communicating,” Skyline coach Brandon Hemphill said. “Both of them being middle infielders and Connor also being a pitcher.

this first out, some way, somehow.’” The play stalled Kentwood’s momentum and ended a scoring threat. In the seventh, with two on and nobody out, Knutson struck out the side to preserve Skyline’s first state title in the sport. “Growing up, I always thought (I would win a title) in football,” said Sinatro, who is bound for Washington State on a baseball scholarship, but also played four years on the touted Skyline football team. “But we end with baseball. It’s just awesome to get to this point, prove all the doubters wrong.”

The Spartans finished the season at 21-7, more losses than most state champions accumulate over a year. “Those losses, to me, are part of the process,” Hemphill said. “I’m OK to lose a couple of games. That was just setting everything up. It’s finding out who can rise to the occasion, who can get the job done for us.” Knutson and Sinatro surely proved their worth. In addition to the huge pickoff play, Sinatro turned two sacrifice-bunt attempts into legged-out singles as he used his speed to beat throws to first on

3:57.96 in the 4x400 relay. Highlights for the Skyline boys included a runner-up finish in the 4x400 relay (3:21.23) and a fourth-place time of 22.65 in the 200 dash from senior Lane Malulla. Luke Stiles set a new PR of 20 feet, 11 inches for 10th place in long jump. Bradley Kim was 16th in triple jump (40-9 ½).

Eastlake’s Nathan Pixler fights back for strong finish Nathan Pixler has established himself as an elite prep runner and will compete next year at the University of Colorado. But Pixler didn’t have an easy finish to his senior season at Eastlake. He pulled a calf muscle and spent much of the spring on rehabilitation efforts. So when he crossed the finish line in fourth place in the 800 meters, then collapsed in exhaustion afterward, there were no words of regret.

SAMMAMISH REVIEW

Skyline hadn’t played a game quite like this all season long. In the end, the Spartans did something 23 other opponents of the Wenatchee Panthers had failed to do – they beat them. Skyline shook off a bad start – five errors

and four unearned runs – behind an otherwise stellar start from Jack Simpson to ultimately capture a 5-4 semifinal baseball victory in nine innings at Gesa Stadium on May 27. “For us to make those errors, it was very unusual,” Hemphill said. “But we pulled the kids together and told them, ‘We’ve got ‘em right where we want ‘em.’ ” Skyline trailed 4-0 early, but the Spartans sent eight players to the plate in the sixth and scored three times to tie the score at 4-4. Skyline broke the tie in the ninth. Kyle Strash led off the

inning with his second double of the game, his third hit overall, a bloop down the left-field line that tipped off outfielder Colin Vanlaar’s glove as he dove for the ball. Two batters later, Knutson singled sharply to right, sending Strash to third. Kringle then snuck an RBI single through the hole between third base and shortstop to score Strash for the 5-4 lead. “I’ve got to give all the credit to our starter, Jack Simpson,” Hemphill said. “He didn’t let the miscues behind him get to him.” Simpson survived to throw seven strong innings.

“I’m grateful I even made it here because I was really badly injured for over a month,” he said. “So I’m really thankful for my family, and all my coaches and doctors, that were able to get me to this point.” Pixler’s final race was full of drama. It was a four-horse race between Pixler, Skyview’s Mason Scheidel, Noah Wallace of Lake Stevens and Ethan Karlinsey of Inglemoor. Scheidel dove across the line, his winning mark of 1:55.36 less than a second ahead of Pixler in fourth.

The Eastlake girls, led by senior Maddy Kennedy and junior Pia Richards, won a total of five medals and tied for 12th place with 21 points. Richards captured a pair of fourthplace marks in the 1,600 meters (4:59.29) and 3,200 (10:55.06). Kennedy, who is headed to Montana State to continue her career, earned third in the 300 hurdles (45.32) and seventh in the 100 hurdles (15.40). Sophomore Brooke Manson won a second straight medal in the
