SAMMAMISH REVIEW

Trio of Democrats 5th District Senate race tightens; closing in on sweep newcomer Graves elected to House of 41st District seats

BY SAMMAMISH REVIEW STAFF

BY SAMMAMISH REVIEW STAFF Barring a tsunami of last-minute Republican votes, Democrat Lisa Wellman is on her way to unseating incumbent state Sen. Steve Litzow in the 41st District Senate race.

Litzow, a Mercer Island Republican, has held his Lisa Wellman seat since 2010. As of Nov. 13, Wellman had 52.4 percent of the vote (33,207 votes), while Litzow had 47.6 percent (30,212 votes).

Initial results released on election night showed Wellman with a 10-point lead, but that lead has dwindled to 5 points as more votes are counted.

Wellman, who won the primary by 456 votes, began her career as a public school teacher before Tana Senn entering the business world where she held management roles at Apple Computer and other tech companies. In her voter statement, Wellman said it’s time for accountability and results in the Legislature when it comes to funding education and fixing traffic problems.

Her win makes it a clean sweep for the Judy Clibborn Democrats in the 41st District.

Mercer Island Rep. Tana Senn retained her House seat. She led Republican challenger John Pass as of Nov. 13 with 40,279 votes (65 percent) to Pass’ 21,705 (35 percent).

Incumbent Rep. Judy Clibborn won, too, outpacing Republican challenger Michael Appleby with 38,503 votes (62.1 percent) to Appleby’s 23,467 (37.9 percent).

King County Elections update numbers periodically, with final results certified on Nov. 29.

Fifth District incumbent Sen. Mark Mullet has a 947-vote advantage over Republican challenger Chad Magendanz as of Nov. 13. That’s down from the 2,823-vote difference he had the morning of Nov. 9.

Magendanz continues to chip away at the lead as King County Elections rolled out its daily results updates. Mullet tallied 50.7 percent of the vote while Magendanz received 49.3 percent through Nov. 13.

The vote count was 33,320 for Mullet and 32,373 for Magendanz. King County reported that the 71,837 ballots counted so far were from 72.6 percent of the 98,977 registered voters in the district.

Rodne holds off Ritchie Democratic challenger Jason Ritchie opened election night with a narrow lead over incumbent Rep. Jay Rodne in the 5th District House race, but it did not last long.

Rodne, who has held his seat since 2004, took the lead the very next day and it continues to grow as he holds an 2,252-

In a post on his website, Graves thanked his family, campaign team and volunteers.

The open seat was vacated by Magendanz, who opted to try to tilt the state Senate by challenging Mullet for his seat in the district.

Graves tallied 53.3 percent of the vote to Burner’s 46.7 percent. Graves received 34,564 votes and Burner had 30,288, as of Nov. 13.

King County voters carry Sound Transit 3 to victory

BY SAMMAMISH REVIEW AND SEATTLE TIMES STAFF

Sound Transit 3, the $54 billion plan to finance light-rail, commuter-train and bus-line extensions over a quarter-century, has passed despite Pierce County voters’ rejection of the measure.

The measure, also known as Proposition 1, was logging 58 percent approval in King County as of Nov. 13. Overall, in

the three-county Sound Transit district, 54 percent were voting to approve.

The situation mirrors the Sound Transit 2008 vote, when Pierce County voters were alone in the three-county district in saying no.

This plan promises 62 more miles of light rail, Sounder trains as far south as DuPont, more park-and-ride spaces and bus rapid transit for State Route 522 and Interstate 405.

Sammamish Deputy Mayor Ramiro Valderrama said he was surprised by the measure’s success. He thought voters would reject it.

Valderrama, who called the plan “taxation without transportation,” said the measure was rushed and people didn’t have time to understand the implications of the massive transit package.

He wants the agency to address the concerns of

towns like Woodinville and 2024.

SAMMAMISH REVIEW

From the Editor’s Desk

Letters to the editor welcome any time of the year

A

nother election season is fading into history, and with it goes the high volume of letters to the editor we see during September and October. I hope you’ll keep writing, however.

The letters section of this page is where I seek an open exchange of ideas from all readers. Anyone is welcome to participate.

If you have sent in a letter to the editor and it did not appear on this page, please don’t take it personally.

To improve the odds your letter will run, please consider this advice: n Keep it local. It’s my goal to run every letter I receive, but if you have thoughts on a national topic, my suggestion would be to share those with The Seattle Times’ opinion page.

n Keep it concise. I ask that letters do not exceed 300 words. On occasion, I allow a little wiggle room up to 325 words, but that’s the Scott Stoddard absolute maximum. n Vary your topics.

There are serial letter-writers who hammer away at the same issue every couple of weeks. After I’ve run your first letter on that topic, it’s extremely unlikely I’ll run another.

We welcome letters about local issues that do not exceed 300 words.

Send letters to the editor via email to editor@sammamishreview.com. We may edit your letter for length, clarity or inappropriate content. Include your phone number (for verification only; it will not be published). You can also mail your comments to: Editor, Sammamish Review, P.O. Box 1328, Issaquah, WA 98027

Two times 2 times 52 times 4 is 832 miles, or 208 hours, where all I’ll have to do is

watch for traffic, untangle leashes wrapped around my legs, enjoy interactions with people in the neighborhood and pick up after doggy poop. That’ll keep my Greg Farrar mind off things.

The cats get about eight hours of laptime a week, so that’s more than 1,600 hours in the next four years of just listening to purring.

One movie in the theater each month, with popcorn and red licorice. And the previously described iPod in use to tune out the annoying pre-movie advertising!

Other activities that will need more of my attention during the next administration will include ferry rides on Puget Sound, Issaquah Alps trail hikes and drives to other town festivals in western Washington.

And let me see, over the next four years I’ll be busy covering four Salmon Days festivals, two dozen high school graduations, more football, soccer, baseball, basketball, track, gymnastics, wrestling and volleyball than I can count.

I don’t have young children. If you do, you’ve got the means right there to keep loads of political news outside of your bubble. School plays, playground visits and outings to the zoo are just the tip of the iceberg.

Reichert is a former King County sheriff.

City, school district will share cost to replace field turf

BY SAMMAMISH REVIEW STAFF The Issaquah School District has agreed to share the cost to replace the turf on Skyline High School Community Sports Field with the City of

Sammamish.

Originally, the city was going to shoulder the entire cost, but the city anticipated the change in district bell times would reduce the amount of time the field is available for community use.

In the fall of 2017, high schools will begin at at 8 a.m., middle schools at 8:10 a.m. and elementary schools at 9:10 a.m.

The city anticipates this change would cause “a loss of about 30 minutes of community use time dur-

ing the weekdays, potentially more on game days.”

The school district and the city plan to split the cost estimated to be $1.4 million.

The city predicts construction would begin spring or summer of 2017

with the field opening in later that summer.

According to city documents the community sports field has been in use for nearly 10 years and the turf is showing signs of breakdown that can no longer be repaired.

Goodman earned 38,592 votes (62.6 percent), while Valderrama had 23,028 (37.4 percent) as of Nov. 13.

“I want to thank everyone for their tireless support and work,” Valderrama wrote on his campaign’s Facebook page.

“While we all hoped for a different outcome, it is important we now work together to advocate for the many critical issues that need to be addressed in our state and district.”

Meanwhile, Goodman spent the morning after Election Day in his son’s school classroom talking about government and politics to students.

He told the Sammamish Review some of the issues he plans on tackling in the upcoming session include human trafficking, domestic violence, juvenile justice and foster-care reform.

Education and mental health will be the big-ticket issues the Legislature must address, he added.

“I’m expecting the budget session to be particularly difficult to meet the demands of the McCleary decision,” Goodman said.

About...

This family owned business, opened its doors July of 1982 in a small portable building (600sq.ft.) with the help of good friends. Their beginnings were very sparse with catalog books, a hand truck and a beat up delivery truck. With six basic white, low end appliances placed on the showroom floor King and Bunnys was opened.

King and Bunnys, now many years later, has had four remodels and expanded to 3200 sq.ft. with a beautiful showroom displaying over 200 major home appliances. They have a local warehouse with over 400 units in stock, all available for immediate delivery.

King and Bunnys is located on Sunset Blvd (SR900) in Renton, WA, just 2.5 miles east from I-405. Three miles away is the Boeing plant were the 737 and the 737MAX airplanes are manufactured and next door to Boeing is Paccar where Kenworth trucks are manufactured. The employment base just in that local area is over 12,000 employees.

King and Bunnys is entrenched in the local community; they believe in giving back. Throughout the years King and Bunny, as well as their team members, have volunteered, been involved with service clubs, chambers, sport clubs and civic organizations. King and Bunnys support auctions, local events, schools, charities, service clubs and much more.

King and Bunnys is a member of Nationwide, a 3000 member buying and marketing group, whose collective buying power is over 15 billion dollars annually.

This appliance buying power is equal to Sears or Home Depot and Lowes combined.

Hence, King and Bunnys “WHAMMER DEAL”!

King and Bunnys offer competitive prices, knowledgeable team members, in stock inventory, fast deliveries, quality installation, doing business with integrity, honesty, and caring customer service.

Skyline linebacker Jack McCarthy (21) causes Eastlake running back Daniel Bradley (32) to fumble the ball late in the second quarter, creating a turnover that led to the Spartans’ first scoring drive of the game.

All season, Skyline’s identity has revolved around a smashmouth running game.

Against an opponent with a deep knowledge of his team’s tendencies, Spartans coach Mat Taylor wanted to throw in a few wrinkles.

Skyline used its deep passing game effectively, pulling away in the second half for a 31-14 victory over plateau rival Eastlake in a Class 4A first-round state football playoff game Nov. 11 at Eastlake High School.

Eastlake coach Don Bartel was Taylor’s defensive coordi-

nator on Skyline’s 2012 state championship team, and the two close friends have few surprises when their teams get together.

“We knew we had to take some shots to really make it happen,” Taylor said. “The last two or three times we’ve played Eastlake, we’ve always relied on the run more than the pass, so we had to change it up.”

Skyline quarterback Drew Kistner wasn’t asked to throw a lot, but he put up solid numbers: 9 of 13 for 201 yards and three touchdowns. Running back Isaiah Shim had his usual SEE SKYLINE, PAGE 17

“I just thought when it came down the middle, I thought it was my opportunity to get the ball and make a play for my team.”

Eastside Catholic added another safety for a 39-21 lead when Timberline (8-3) quarterback Trenton Horn was called for intentional grounding from his own end zone with 5:37 left.

Folkes finished with 146 yards rushing and two touchdowns on 23 carries for the Crusaders.

Timberline coach Mike Spears told The Olympian, “We felt we played a really good half, and we had them somewhat figured out. Our guys recognized they can play with them, that they’re just high school guys, they’re not supermen.”

That was a good, solid win on the road for us.”

Tyler Folkes sprinted through the middle for a 13-yard touchdown run just 1:05 into the second half to give the Crusaders the lead at 28-21. The Folkes touchdown was set up by a 49-yard reverse pass from Hunter Bryant to Gee Scott down the right sideline.

The lead grew to 30-21 when Timberline punter Michael Barnes couldn’t corral an errant snap and was forced to throw the ball out of the back of the end zone with 6:27 to go in the third quarter.

On the ensuing kickoff, EC’s Putney wove his way to the 67-yard score to hike the Crusaders’ advantage to 37-21 just 14 seconds after the safety.

“It was a hard squib (kick) and it bounced, and the whole game they were kicking it away from me,” Putney said.

Skyline and Eastlake were tied at 7-7 late in the second quarter. Skyline (9-2) could’ve run out the clock but Kistner hit Luke Stiles for 46 yards and, two plays later, Shim ran through the middle for a 20-yard TD with 14 ticks left on the clock.

“We were really playing for a field goal and Isaiah got in there,” Taylor said.

“It was awesome.”

“We’re one of those teams that can power through adversity, so they scored on us with a minute left, but it’s in our identity to go and score right before half again,” said Skyline senior Bradley SEE SPARTANS, PAGE 19 Holiday Hours

A free kick by Skyline’s Julia Mitchell crosses the goal line as Spartan teammates Alexa Kirton (foreground) and Mariah Alexander (9) watch Jackson defender Jadyn Edwards unsuccessfully attempt to clear the ball. The goal gave Skyline a 2-0 lead and the Spartans went on to defeat the Timberwolves 3-1 to advance to a semifinal match Friday against Camas in Puyallup.

Spartans roll into state soccer semifinals

BY NEIL PIERSON npierson@sammamishreview.com

The Skyline Spartans are so good defensively that an offensive scoreless streak of more than 160 minutes wasn’t enough to end their undefeated season.

But the dry spell that started with a scoreless draw against Eastlake in the regular-season finale and continued with the same result in the Class 4A KingCo Conference championship game against Issaquah was something the Spartans wanted desperately to end.

It took Skyline only four minutes to find the back of the net against Puyallup and the Spartans went on to a 2-0 victory over the Vikings in a 4A first-round girls soccer state tournament match on Nov. 9 in Sammamish.

The goals kept coming when Skyline hosted the Jackson Timberwolves in a 4A quarterfinal contest on Nov. 12.

Cameron Tingey, Julia Mitchell and Maddie Butz scored in a 3-1 win, putting the Spartans in this week’s semifinals at Sparks Stadium in Puyallup.

Skyline (15-0-4) faces Camas at 6 p.m. Friday in the first semifinal, with the winner playing Hanford or West Valley (Yakima) for the state title at 4 p.m. Saturday. The semifinal losers play at noon Saturday for third and fourth places.

Camas defeated Skyline, 2-1, in last year’s quarterfinals.

Alexander snapped Skyline’s scoreless streak with a well-timed run on Ava Giovanola’s free kick from the right side.

Alexander chested the ball past Puyallup goalkeeper Rian Kasner to put her team in front.

Alexander credited coach Don Braman’s preparation for Puyallup after the Spartans beat Issaquah for the KingCo title via an 11-round penalty-kick shootout.

“Braman really had us focus on finishing during practice and so we just really implemented that in the game,” she said.

Alexa Kirton, a University of New Mexico recruit, doubled Skyline’s advantage in the 27th minute. Playing the ball out of their defensive end, the Spartans quickly set up the speedy Saskia Slater along the left sideline for a cross into the box.

Skyline’s (from left) Julia Mitchell, Cameron Tingey and McKenna Ross celebrate Tingey’s goal against Jackson in the first half of their 4A state quarterfinal in Sammamish on Nov. 12.

“I saw a play earlier happen and the ball went through everybody,” Kirton explained, “so when I saw Saskia running down the line and a bunch of runners coming in, I thought, ‘I’m just going to get in the back and hope it just goes through everybody and gets to me.’ And it did.”

Kirton one-touched a cross-cage shot past Kasner for a 2-0 lead.

Skyline’s defense recorded its ninth straight shutout to make it stand up. The Spartans hadn’t given up a goal since a Sept. 29 match with Eastlake.

The back four of Alexander, Giovanola, Marissa Carpenter and Claire Wate play together on the same select team and their chemistry has been a boon for the Spartans.

“And we have a great goalkeeper, Anna Smith, so that’s how we don’t get scored on,” Alexander said.

Puyallup (14-3-2) didn’t go quietly. The Vikings made things interesting with a 4-3-3 formation that focused on playing their strikers into open spaces behind the defense.

Puyallup outshot Skyline 8-2 in the second half as Meredith Udovich, a freshman with Washington Premier FC’s Elite Clubs National League squad, was a frequent target.

Udovich nearly scored in the 55th minute but her 18-yard shot missed to the right.

“They have a really good three-striker (system) and they really pressed high, kept us on our toes the entire game,” Alexander added.

The Spartans sewed up a 10th trip to the final four in program history. They haven’t won it all since 2012 and were denied a chance in 2014 when Jackson beat them in the semifinals with three goals in the last seven minutes.

“We didn’t really know anything going into the relay — if we were ahead, if we were behind — so we were just like, ‘We’ve got to do our best,’ ” DiMeco said.

Bradley put the Spartans into the lead early and DiMeco finished the win on the anchor leg, giving Skyline a 243-232 margin of victory over secondplace Wenatchee.

“We didn’t really know (if we could win) since we knew that Wenatchee’s a really strong and deep team,” said Bradley, who gave the Spartans 34 team points with her second-place times in the 200 individual medley and 100 freestyle.

Skyline’s day started with a second-place finish in the 200-yard medley relay. Jackson won the race, taking a big lead in the middle two legs, though DiMeco nearly pulled off the comeback with her freestyle anchor leg, coming within three-tenths of a second of the Timberwolves at the finish.

DiMeco returned to the pool a few minutes later and captured the 200 freestyle championship, pulling away from Newport’s Yulia Groysman over the latter half of the race for an All-American consideration time of 1:49.37 seconds.

DiMeco and Groysman waged another battle in the 500 freestyle and DiMeco dominated the final 300 meters to win in an automatic All-

American time of 4:51, more than 8 seconds in front of the Newport sophomore. DiMeco’s time was the fourth-fastest mark in 4A meet history.

“I know her really well because we’re always racing at club meets and stuff, so it was fun,” DiMeco said of competing against Groysman.

Bradley was the runner-up in the 200 IM with an AllAmerican consideration time of 2:04.89. Jackson senior Nicole Limberg — the 4A Swimmer of the Meet — defended her title, overpowering Bradley on the breaststroke leg to win in 2:02.28, an automatic AllAmerican time.

“I just love swimming that race, all the strokes,” Bradley said. “I knew it was a competition with Nicole, but

she’s like the one for that, so I knew she was going to win.”

Bradley later took second place in the 100 freestyle (51.65) behind Inglemoor’s Gabrielle Dang, who took her second title of the day in 50.83.

Skyline’s Danika Himes picked up 14 team points for the Spartans, placing fifth in the 200 IM. McRae was sixth in the 200 freestyle and she won the 100 free consolation final, earning 22 total team points.

Eastlake diver Cribbs captures fourth-place medal Eastlake junior diver Kennedy Cribbs had solid preliminary and semifinal rounds in the 1-meter diving competition. She stood third after the first round, fourth after the semifinals and

remained in fourth after three more dives on Saturday, totaling 352.10 points.

The Wolves competed in the consolation final of the 200 medley relay. The foursome of Aimee Ellis, Maggie Van Nortwick, Maya Alderman and Michelle Tan took 13th place.

Ellis, a senior, was Eastlake’s only individual swimmer to qualify for state and she took 12th overall in the 500 freestyle (5:26.73), nearly 4 seconds slower than her preliminary heat.

Ellis also qualified for state in the 100 backstroke but didn’t make it past day one after finishing 17th (1:02.44).

In the 400 free relay, the Wolves finished 14th overall.

Tan, Alderman, Lillian Piel and Ellis swam a time of 3:51.73.
