Ramiro Valderrama

If Sammamish Deputy Mayor Ramiro Valderrama hopes to settle into a seat in the state Legislature next year, he has quite a hill to climb. Mount Rainier might be more

accurate. Primary election ballots tabluated through Aug. 7 show Valderrama trailing Democratic incumbent Roger Goodman by more than 6,500 votes in the District 45 race for the Position 1 House seat. Valderrama will advance to the general elec-

tion for a rematch, but Goodman’s primary lead is huge: 62 percent to Valderrama’s 38 percent. In the District 41 state Senate race, Republican incumbent Steve Litzow is in a neck-and-neck race

Soaring to first at state glider contest BY LIZZ GIORDANO lgiordano@sammamishreview.com

Inglewood Middle School student Makenna Allyn spent an entire year studying the fundamentals of flight, constantly refining her glider design. But it wasn’t until the day of the competition that she finally perfected her balsa wood plane. This last-minute adjustment helped Allyn glide into

first place at the Washington Technology Student Association flight competition. Her secret: a pinch of clay added to the nose of her glider to increase weight, preventing

the aircraft from stalling out during flight. “I was awed at how well it did. It was the kind of thing Boeing looks for,” she said with a laugh.

system. “When we don’t collect information for the CRDC, the direction is to place down zeros,” she said. “The problem is harassment comes in a broad category of verbal, physical, emotional and sexual.” However, the CRDC does ask districts for the number of allegations of harassment and bullying across a range of demographics: sex, race, color, national origin and disability.

BY SCOTT STODDARD sstoddard@ sammamishreview.com The Issaquah School District offered The City Church $28 million for the 40-acre Providence Heights College property before the district moved ahead with eminent domain proceedings to acquire the property. The offer was extended in a June 27 letter from attorney Denise Stiffarm, representing the school district, to Plateau Campus LLC, the churchcontrolled company that is the taxpayer of record for the property. The Sammamish Review obtained a copy of the letter through a public records request. Troy Anderson, a City Church executive pastor, attorney and manager of Plateau Campus, did not respond to a request for comment regarding the offer. The district is using eminent domain to acquire three Providence Heights parcels owned by The City Church, a megachurch based in Kirkland. The main parcel, which includes the former divinity school’s buildings, is 28.86 acres. Two smaller parcels are a combined 11.8 acres. An audit in May by the state Department of Revenue resulted in The City Church losing its tax-exempt status on most of the property

backdated to August 2014. Although the church is up-todate on tax payments on the smaller parcels, it currently owes $643,930 on the main parcel. The school district is taking the property in order to build a comprehensive high school and an elementary school on the site. The new facilities and land acquisition were included in the district’s $533 milllion construction bond approved by voters in April. The district has not stated its intentions regarding the Providence Heights campus buildings, which include classrooms, a dormitory, a gymnasium, cafeteria and swimming pool. A midcentury modern chapel at the center of the campus, treasured by local residents, alumni and preservationists, features 14 striking stained-glass windows created in France by master artist Gabriel Loire. Providence Heights College was opened by the Sisters of Providence in 1961. The campus was sold in 1978 to the Lutheran Bible Institute of Seattle, which in 2004 entered into an agreement to sell the campus to The City Church. That deal, with a sales price of $22.7 million, closed in 2008. The Washington Trust for Historic Preservation included the campus on its list of the state’s seven most-endangered historic sites in 2016.

SAMMAMISH REVIEW

Goodman serves us well, deserves re-election I am writing in support of the re-election of Roger Goodman to the state House of Representatives for the 45th Legislative District. Roger has represented the 45th LD for the past 10 years and has championed the causes of education, public safety and the environment. He has worked across the aisle to introduce and pass legislation that has benefited our community and our state. Through his hard work, he has earned endorsements from groups across the political spectrum including the Washington Education Association, Washington State Troopers Association, Fraternal Order of Police, Washington Fire Chiefs, Washington State Nurses Association, Sierra Club and many others. As a member of the 45th LD, I have had the opportunity to hear Roger speak on a number of occasions to address the questions and concerns of our community, and to discuss the work of the state legislature. On each occasion, Roger has demonstrated thorough knowledge of current legislation and presented a clear and reasoned view of his positions. I have been impressed with the attentive manner in which he listens to his constituents and their concerns. He is clearly dedicated to his work and to our community. We need his voice to continue to represent us in Olympia. Jodie Hastings Sammamish

Litzow has shown he’s dedicated to education As a passionate education advocate for students in our district and throughout the state, I want safe classrooms that will help children succeed in school. It’s critical that my representatives in Olympia share that passion, which is why I support Sen. Steve Litzow for re-election. Parents and advocates across Washington understand the importance of properly funding our schools, giving them the resources they need to provide a top-quality education for our students. Litzow fought for the largest funding increase in state history this year to ensure students don’t fall behind, and has worked to create fair teacher evaluations that hold educators accountable to the highest standards. I’m proud to know that Sen. Litzow has made education his top priority, and has proven his commitment to providing real solutions for both students and teachers. Jody Mull Bellevue

SAMMAMISH REVIEW

Eastlake graduate Morghan King qualifies for Rio Olympics, sets new American record

BY STEPHANIE LOH Seattle Times staff reporter

Backstage in the athlete warm-up area at the 2016 U.S. weightlifting Olympic trials in Salt Lake City on May 8, minutes before she was to attempt three of the most important lifts of her life, weightlifter Morghan King ran into big problems. Right as she was about to make a warm-up clean and jerk of 60 kilograms, King’s legs cramped up so much she could hardly move. Because of her acute leg cramps, King, a Redmond native and 2004 Eastlake High School graduate, took a smaller-than-normal set of about five warmup lifts before going out onto the competition platform. “LeBron James won a championship on a torn quad. You can do this!” her coach and boyfriend Dean Kruse chirped. Despite the cramps, King, who competes in the 48 kg (105.6 pounds) weight class, nailed her opening clean-and-jerk of 95 kg. Knowing that might not be enough to clinch a bid to the Olympics, King then attempted a 100 kg clean-and-jerk, but was flagged for a no-lift because she was deemed to have pressed out the jerk instead of locking it overhead in a fluid motion. King recomposed herself, then came back and nailed that 100-kg lift on her final attempt. As she pumped her fists in the air triumphantly and ran offstage, she knew she’d done everything she could to lock up a spot on the Olympic team. That night, King punched her ticket to the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, becoming one

of the three women who will represent the U.S. in weightlifting this week. King failed to end the U.S.’s 16-year streak of not medaling in the 48-kg category, finishing sixth Aug. 6 on the first day of Olympic competition. Tara Nott was the last American to medal, winning gold in 2000. Still, King set an American record. Her lift of 83 kilos in the snatch broke the U.S. record of 82.5, which had been set by Nott in Sydney. King added 100 kilos in the clean and jerk for a total of 183 kilos. “The snatch was something I’ve been working on for a long time. The clean and jerk, I knew it was going to be a lot tougher. But I’m happy,” King said. “I still have to pinch myself that I was out there. You are in the moment and focusing on your lift, then just trying to do your best, and then it’s all over. It’s kind of surreal.” Sopita Tanasan of Thailand won the gold medal. She snatched 92 kilograms and lifted 108 kilograms in the clean and jerk for a total of 200 kilograms. The horrible cramping King experienced at the Olympic trials, Kruse now believes, was the result of a tactical error they’d made in the lead up to that night’s meet. Instead of sweating off excess weight in a sauna before the meet, as one of her other coaches had suggested, King had tried to make weight by fasting all day until the official weigh-in two hours before competition time. “That was a rookie mistake,” Kruse said later that month in a phone interview with the Seattle Times, adding: “That was just too long without water, and coupled with the stress – this was a do-or-

die situation – she was physically spent by the time she was warming up.” It was the sort of rookie mistake that a more seasoned weightlifter-coach tandem might not have made. But in many ways, King and Kruse, both 30, are still relative newcomers in the world of international weightlifting. In a sport that demands near perfection and razor sharp attention to detail from its athletes, King’s rapid ascension to the top echelon of the national weightlifting rankings has been remarkable. “Her first national competition was in 2012, right after the last Olympics, and now she’s going to the Olympics. That’s pretty cool,” says Kruse, who’s from Bellevue. But Kruse himself only got into weightlifting in 2011, and has not coached anyone else at the international level. So as King continues to hone her technique as a world-class weightlifter, her coach is also still learning. Together, they’re embarking on their first Olympic journey. And the road to Rio has been quite the adventure thus far.

Makings of an Olympic weightlifter When the last Summer Olympics took place in London in 2012, King was just a former college athlete who was waitressing at a restaurant in South Lake Union and working out at The Lab, a local CrossFit gym that Kruse co-owns. As part of CrossFit training, which consists of a wide variety of athletic movements performed at high intensity, Kruse taught King the basics of the

two Olympic lifts, the snatch and the cleanand-jerk. He was quickly impressed by how strong King got in a short amount of time. “She’s a fantastic athlete. She was a college soccer player, and she was doing triathlons at the time. We did a lot of strength stuff for CrossFit, and she puts on muscle so fast, it’s crazy,” Kruse said of King, who played soccer at Eastlake and Notre Dame de Namur University in Belmont, Calif. “Her legs became so strong within a matter of months. Not many people respond to training like that.” King performed well enough in the annual CrossFit Open competition that she qualified for CrossFit regionals in 2011 and 2012. But by the end of 2012, King had decided to focus solely on weightlifting, in part because she realized that her diminutive size – she’s listed at 5-feet – was a limiting factor in CrossFit, where there are no weight class divisions. At her first national meet, the 2012 American Open in Palm Springs, Calif., King competed in the 53-kg weight class and finished fourth, lifting a total of 139 kg – just one kilogram off the 140kg total thirdplace finisher Kathleen Winters put up. “It was the most terrifying experience of my life, and I had so much fun,” King said. That result showed King and Kruse that they were on the right track. King was brimming with untapped potential that they hoped to unlock. It was time to go all in. The couple tried out for spots on the North Carolina-based Muscle Driver competitive weightlifting team and moved to Charlotte to begin training full-time.

While in North Carolina, King dropped down to the 48-kg weight class to be more competitive for her size. The switch in weight classes paid almost immediate dividends when she qualified for her first international competition — the 2013 IWF World Championships. King finished 11th in her weight class, and caught the eye of Zygmunt Smalcerz, the resident weightlifting team coach at the U.S. Olympic training center. Smalcerz subsequently invited King to move to Colorado Springs and train under him. The prospect of being coached by a wellrespected figure in the weightlifting world who had won a gold medal in weightlifting at the 1972 Olympics and was formerly the head coach of the Polish national weightlifting team was

an offer King couldn’t refuse. So in May 2014, King and Kruse packed up and drove to Colorado to train under Smalcerz. Taking the next step up Smalcerz helped King quickly add 10 kg to her total, and for more than a year, things were working really well. King finished fourth in her weight class in the 2014 and 2015 Pan-American Games, and placed fifth at the 2015 IWF Grand Prix, with a 179 kg total. But by the time King competed in the 2015 world championships in Houston last November, the dynamic between herself and Smalcerz had shifted. Smalcerz was stretched thin working with 17 athletes at a time, and King didn’t feel as though she was getting as much attention from SEE KING, PAGE 11

as dips, pull ups and overhead shoulder presses. But he also took King back to basics, emphasizing that she had to start over and re-learn some of the movements involved in the snatch and the clean. Having Nasirinia as a resource has also been valuable for Kruse, who’s still developing his skills as a weightlifting coach. “She’s been with me from the beginning, but I’m not a worldchampion coach,” Kruse said. “Everything is new. I’ve read a lot of stuff and I am coaching. (However) I’m not really applying everything to a full club of lifters yet. But I’d love to someday. I feel like I’ve learned a lot.” Regardless of which athlete he ends up coaching next, having to coach his girlfriend might forever stand out as Kruse’s biggest, most stressful challenge. “We’ve had some pretty big blowouts,” King said, laughing. “But we always

get through it. We don’t ever leave anything unsaid, which is hard for people in the gym because we’re bickering. But when it’s over, it’s over.” King and Kruse joke that if their relationship can survive this trip to the Olympics, they’ll be able to get through anything together. “It’s still a learning process,” King said, laughing. “We work it out. It’s a good thing we have dogs. … I don’t think I could have done (this) without him, that’s for sure. It probably would have been a very lonely process.”

robotics to video game design and leadership, at the 2016 Washington TSA State Conference held this past spring. Prior to the competition, participants in the flight event were required to submit a portfolio with two glider designs and test flight times. Participants were judged on flight duration, the quality of their build and how closely the design portfolio was followed. Students were given 90 minutes to build their competition plane, then time to test their gliders and make adjustments. There wasn’t much practice space, so Allyn was unsure of how far her glider would ultimately travel during the competition. “It flew beautifully,” Allyn said. “It was so good. Straight and flat.” In all four flights, her glider sailed so far it ended up hitting the back wall, and the flights came
