Predatory towing under fire

By Kathy Steele

Weight loss surgery can change your life.

If you are severely obese, Naga Thatimatla, M.D., and Lee Grossbard, M.D., F.A.C.S., can help you find hope and discover a whole new – and healthier – you.

Pasco County commissioners want to put the brakes on predatory towing of vehicles.

Pasco County Commissioner Mike Moore brought the matter up in February after receiving complaints from residents who chose to call a taxi or a friend for a ride home after an evening of drinks and dinner.

“Someone is being responsible,” said Moore, who discussed the problem again at the April 12 Pasco County Commission meeting.“They take Uber, or they ride home with a friend.They are not putting our citizens at risk on the road.”

But, Moore said some towing companies sweep through parking lots in the wee

hours of the morning, especially on weekends, and haul off any vehicles they find.

Residents wind up paying hefty sums to get their cars back, even though they did the right thing by not driving, Moore said.

On April 26 at 1:30 p.m., a public hearing will be held to consider an amendment to the county’s towing ordinance.The hearing will be in the boardroom of the West Pasco Government Center, at 8731 Citizens Drive, in New Port Richey.

The City of Tampa and Hillsborough County have similar ordinances, and Pinellas County is considering one, county

officials said.

The amendment would ban removal of a vehicle between 9 p.m. and noon when parked at an establishment licensed to sell beer, wine and alcohol for consumption on premises.The exception would be if the property owner signs an order permitting the removal of a particular vehicle.

A towing company would be required to have such an order prior to hauling off a vehicle.

“It sounds like a reasonable solution to predatory towing,” said Pasco County Commissioner Ted Schrader.

To schedule an appointment, call 352-437-5971.

R.B. Cox Elementary School is turning 90 and the school wants the community’s help to help detail its history.

The school is preparing a 90th Year Celebration for alumni, current students, current and former staff, families with connections to the school and members of the Dade City community.

To help get ready for a series of celebrations that will begin in September, efforts are underway to collect photographs and other mementoes that will be used to help provide a glimpse of the past.

The school also is seeking alumni that are interested in being interviewed to be part of the school’s montage video, according to a news release.

Founded in 1926 as Dade City Grammar School, the school was renamed to honor Superintendent and former Principal Rodney B. Cox after he lost his battle with cancer in 1973.

The first event is set for Sept. 30 at the elementary school, 37615 Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd., in Dade City.

Anyone who would like to share photos or memories, or who would like to be interviewed, is asked to email rbces90@gmail.com.

For additional information, visit their Facebook page, or call Margaret “Megan” Fortunato at (352) 524-5100.

Nine students from Torchbearer’s Christian Academy, in Dade City, have qualified for the 2016 International Student Convention (ISC), sponsored by Accelerated Christian Education.

The convention, held at the University of Central Missouri from May 21 to May 26, typically draws more than 4,000 youth worldwide to face off in approximately 150 events in the categories of music, oratory, art, athletics and academics.

The event is deemed to be the highlight of the school year for hundreds of schools and home-schools who follow the Accelerated Christian Education curriculum.

To qualify for the international convention,Torchbearers’ students had to place in the top six in at least one event category at the Sun Coast Regional Student Convention, held from March 28 to April 1 in Hudson.

They competed against hundreds of 13-andolder students from 23 other schools across the state.

Ninth-grader Rebeka Torres fared particularly well at regionals, placing first in four individual categories: Social Studies

Research, Website Design, Watercolor Art and Vocal Female Solo. She also placed second in the Scrapbooking category “I had a great time,”Torres said.“I think it was a really good experience, and it creates a lot of responsibility for what you’re doing, and it builds your character in what you can do...for the future.”

Torres competed in regionals two years ago, recently becoming more comfortable in the art events.

“In the beginning, you’re sort of hesitant in the art,” she said. “I actually messed up once, so I had to do it all over again. I think once you start laying out the colors and matching them, I think it’s easier.”

Another Torchbearers’ student, 11th-grader Roberto Garza, stood out at regionals.

Garza placed first in two individual categories: Science Exhibit Research, and Pen and Ink Art. He also finished second in the Vocal Male Solo.

“It was my first time, and I was pretty nervous,” Garza said. “It makes you overcome your fear of being on a stage in front of people. It pushes you to your limits, because you don’t know you’re able to do (something) until you start.”

While there are no easy ways to stop substance abuse, there are steps that can be taken to reduce it.

Those strategies will be the focus of discussion during the fifth annual Substance Abuse Prevention Conference planned for April 29 at Saddlebrook Resort.

The event is being presented by BayCare Behavioral Health and Pasco ASAP.The conference is from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., at 5700 Saddlebrook Way in Wesley Chapel.

“It’s a community conference, so it’s really our opportunity to get new people to take a stake in the coalition and the work of the coalition,” said Monica Rousseau, Pasco County ASAP Coordinator and conference co-chair.

The conference theme is “Strengthening Our Community: Creating Healthy Solutions.”

Throughout the day, speakers and presenters will share their expertise, solutions and tools. There also will be more than 20 vendors representing behavioral health providers and businesses. There will be panel discussions and breakout sessions, as well as keynote speakers.

“From my perspective, the main goal is to get people pumped about tackling substance abuse disorders and substance misuse in Pasco County, and getting people to realize that everybody has a stake in this, and everybody can do something,” Rousseau said.

Substance abuse is a problem that has wide-ranging impacts and can’t simply be left to “others” to resolve, she said.

“These are not just issues that need to be solved by politicians.They’re not just issues that need to be solved by community leaders. Regular, everyday, community members — parents, teachers, people without kids.

Everybody has a role,” Rousseau said.

“It’s not just people that are abusing or misusing drugs that are affected. Everybody is affected,” she added.

Pasco County Tax Collector Mike Fasano, a former Florida lawmaker who spearheaded the state’s prescription drug monitoring program, will open the conference.

Other speakers include BayCare Healthcare System’s CEO Stephen R. Mason, who will talk about wellness and health care integration and Lt. Commander Michael Muni, who served on President Obama’s Task Force on Heroin.

“The real takeaway from this conference is that people will learn strategies,” Rousseau said.

“You will come and be inspired to take home solutions to apply to where you live, work and play,” she added.

One panel will feature Kurt Browning, superintendent, Pasco County Schools; Doug Leonardo, executive director, BayCare Behavioral Health; Kelly Mothershead, owner, A Focus on Fitness Transformation Studio and Salon; Michael J. Napier, administrator, Florida Department of Health Pasco County; Chris Nocco, Pasco County Sheriff, and Kathryn Starkey, Pasco County Commissioner. Panelists will address the community’s response to substance abuse in Pasco County.

“Each of them are tackling substance abuse, in one way or another,” Rousseau said.

Young people will be moderating the Mothers Against Drunk Driving’s panel, and

On the morning of April 5, a CPR class was held in our community center.

Approximately 50 residents attended. It was very informative, and even if we learned one thing, it was well worth it.This program was presented by Florida Hospital Zephyrhills and arranged by Brian Heidman.

Much of what we had learned in our youth is now obsolete, and has been replaced by new techniques and technology. The class was followed by a brief question-and-answer period, which also permitted us to try CPR on a dummy that was on the stage.

Coffee and donuts followed. Ron and Joyce Bell took care of preparing the coffee, while Larry Wills picked up the doughnuts and was the liaison for the communities. Our thanks go out to Brian for arranging this important class.

Later the same day, approximately 30 women attended a luncheon at Scotland Yards.The place had large painted windows and chandeliers. The dining room was so pretty with the views from the windows adding to the attraction. One such view was cardinals in a nest.

When you put 30 women together, you can imagine the different and varied discussions going on.

The luncheon was hosted by Rosie Semian and our thanks go out to her.

will be raising questions on a number of issues, Rousseau said.

The conference also will address an effort that’s underway to respond to substance abuse differently than in the past, she said.

Previously, she said,“substance abuse has been treated as a separate entity.We’re really trying to move toward integrating it into general health and wellness conversations.

“By treating it as something separate, we’re only facilitating that stigma,” she said.

Rousseau said the community also needs to change its mindset about the issue.

“When I moved here, people asked me: ‘Why would you move here? This is the pill capital of the world, and it’s never going to change.’ And, I would look at them and go, ‘No, I’m here to change that.’’’

People need to realize:“You’re making it worse by saying that,” Rousseau said.

She hopes the conference will help inspire more people to get involved in her coalition, which is made up of volunteers.

“We know anecdotally that teachers really need help. They don’t know how to de-escalate the situation.They don’t know what to do with students who are presenting with behavioral problems. And, it’s burning them out.

“We need to teach them (teachers) strategies. We need to teach parents strategies.

“In order to do that and have a big impact, we need community members who are interested enough and passionate enough to learn this information, and share it,” Rousseau said.

Passover begins April 22 The holiday of Pesach, or Passover, is an eight-day festival celebrated in the early spring, from the 15th through the 22nd of the Hebrew month of Nissan.

This year, it runs from April 22 to April 30. It commemorates the emancipation of the Israelites from slavery in ancient Egypt. Following the rituals of Passover allows the Jewish community to relive and experience the freedom of their ancestors.

Children from the Chabad at Wiregrass’s Hebrew School of the Arts prepare for Passover by working on a model Seder.

This Chabad Jewish Centre at Wiregrass setup was for the 100-plus people that joined in on last year’s Seder.

• Eating matzah, which is unleavened bread • Eating bitter herbs to commemorate the bitter slavery endured by the Israelites • Drinking four cups of wine or grape juice to celebrate the newfound freedom • The recitation of the Haggadah, a liturgy that describes the story of the Exodus from Egypt.The Haggadah is the fulfillment of the biblical obligation to recount the story of the Exodus on the night of Passover.

SYMBOLIC SEDER FOODS: • Maror: bitter herbs, usually horseradish,

to serve as a reminder of the bitterness of slavery • Saltwater: symbolizing the tears of the slaves • Charoset: sweet paste made of fruit and nuts, symbolizing the mortar the slaves used to build the Egyptian pyramids • Zeroah: shank bone, representing the Passover sacrifice • Beitzah: hard-boiled egg, symbolic of life and birth associated with the spring season • Karpas: a leafy green vegetable, usually a piece of lettuce, symbolizing hope

A pair of clouded leopard cubs born Feb. 29 at Tampa’s Lowry Park Zoo are being introduced to the great outdoors.

The cubs, now more than 6weeks-old, have reached a new step in their development.

They’re getting a chance to explore a grassy area, under the watchful eye of the zoo’s care team, according to a news release from the zoo.

Zoo visitors also will have a chance to get a peek at the two tiny female felines,“Aiya” and “Shigu.”

Exposing the cubs to different natural environments provides essential sensory enrichment for their continued development.

The zoo staff carefully manages the cubs’ interaction and socialization to help build their confidence.

Giving guests a chance to observe the cubs provides an opportunity to educate the public about the needs and perils of this rare and vulnerable species.

Aiya and Shigu are the first set of multiples for the zoo’s pair of 5-year-old adult leopards.

The cubs have received round-the-clock care after their birth mother became anxious and stopped caring for them.

Within the managed population, clouded leopard cubs are routinely hand-reared for the best chance of survival. Hand-rearing also improves socialization for early introductions to potential mates and reduces fatal attacks by aggressive adults.

Within a few weeks, the zoo’s animal care

By Whitney C. Elmore Special to The Laker/Lutz News

I often get calls from residents where I’m asked to provide a list of “easy” plants.

The truth is, any plant is technically “easy” to grow once you understand its needs.

However, after attending a seminar by one of my master gardeners, I was reminded of the beauty and simplicity of growing orchids.

I would highly recommend orchids as an “easy” plant.

Orchids are relatively pest free, and make beautiful indoor and outdoor additions to any home.There are thousands of orchid species and more hybrids than one could count.

Some orchids are terrestrial species, which means they are ground dwellers. There are others that don’t require soil and grow on trees, and those type of plants are known as epiphytes.

Epiphytes are not parasites, as they only use the tree as a structural support.

There are three categories of epiphytes that I find most interesting and “easy.” The Vanda orchids produce bloom spikes capable of lasting three weeks or more. The flower colors vary from browns and greens to pink, blue, purple, white and even black or gold.

You would most readily recognize these orchid flowers in the welcoming leis of Hawaii among other orchid species.

The Cattleyas are probably the most widely grown, and are very popular due to their showy flowers and long life. Flower colors range through the basic colors, except for blue, and can be found in striking bold hues to almost pastel shades.There are single and double blooms, and some even have a light, airy fragrance that won’t overwhelm the senses.There are Cattleyas that produce up to 20 flowers that are 3-inches wide, while others put on a dramatic show with 7-inch flowers clustered into groups of four or five.

Cattleyas usually only flower once a year — in the spring or fall — and their flowers generally last up to six weeks depending on the species and cultivar.

The third type of epiphytic orchid that I consider “easy” would be the Phaleanopsis, or “moth” orchids.These are great for beginners as they can endure even the brownest thumb.These orchids produce a long arching “spray” of 10 flowers to 20 flowers anywhere from 3-inches to 4-inches in diameter.

Beautiful pinks, yellows, oranges, whites and those with pops of intermingled colors are common.

When in full bloom, these resemble moths fluttering en masse and can be quite stunning.These orchids normally bloom for up to one month in winter or early spring, but with optimal pruning and growing conditions, they can be induced to flower continuously.

Caring for orchids is quite easy. Key tenets of orchid care involve: temperature, light, nutrition, moisture and air movement.

A simple fertilizer for orchids, like 18-1818 or 20-20-20, and fish emulsion applied to the roots will be plenty in terms of nutrition.

Simply dilute the fertilizer into the water system you use to maintain moisture.

The amount of moisture varies slightly for each type of orchid, based on where it’s located. An orchid that gets more light than another might require more water, or when the temperatures decrease, moisture requirements might drop.

Keep an eye on the roots. Orchid roots should be slightly green – a light green and plump. When orchids need water, the roots tend to become gray and dull, and even wither slightly. That’s a sure sign they need moisture.A spray bottle will do nicely, as will a gentle drink from a hose. Direct the water right onto the roots (to avoid leaf spots) and soak Vanda roots daily in summer and every other day in winter.Water your orchids early in the day to allow the extra moisture to evaporate and discourage fungal growth.

Cattleyas are a bit more tolerant of drier conditions and can be watered two to three times per week – just keep an eye on the roots for stress to know when supplemental moisture might be needed.

For the Phaleanopsis orchid species, water

Heidi Vanda orchids produce bloom spikes that can last three weeks or more.

them weekly – maybe twice per week.These orchids like to be moist, but not wet.

When it comes to light, most of the orchid types mentioned in this article like 50 percent to 70 percent shade, so screened porches work nicely.

For the Vandas, a bit more light is best, so that they receive 40 percent to 50 percent shade.

As for temperature, never let your Vanda orchids get below 60 degrees Fahrenheit, as it might be fatal. For the Cattleyas and Phaleanopis varieties, temperatures down to 40 degrees Fahrenheit or 50 degrees Fahrenheit for short periods will not be harmful.

A freeze warning might prompt some protection for exposed orchids, but otherwise these are quite hardy.

Another key to growing orchids is to promote air movement around the roots. Even orchids living in pots need course textured growth media, like pine bark (orchid potting mix) to allow for plenty of oxygen to reach the roots.

Hanging orchid baskets are a beautiful way to display orchids while allowing the roots to be exposed to the air.

As long as orchids have course textured growing media (bark, not potting soil), most will thrive.

Once the mix has broken down into fine particles, it’s time to repot the orchid into a courser mix.There’s really no right or wrong pot for an orchid — as long as the roots have air, moisture and nutrients, and the leaves have the right amount of light.

The only precaution I might offer about growing orchids is to be sure you’ve got plenty of space.

Orchids are enchanting and addictive, not to mention “easy” to grow.

Torchbearers’ Christian Academy Nine students qualified for the 2016 International Student Convention, held in Warrensburg, Missouri, from May 21 to May 26. They recently competed at the 13and-over Sun Coast Regional Student Convention in Hudson.

The winners were: Jesus Avila, Jonathan Garza, Roberto Garza, Jose Hernandez, Kevin Hernandez, Savannah Jones, Joshua Piankowski, Rebeka Torres and Gavin Womack.

NEXT, from page 1A Despite being a small school with an enrollment of about 70 students,Torchbearers’ puts a “big spotlight” on the fine arts, according to Principal Jan Yarbrough.

“The greatest importance is sometimes they carry this through,” Yarbrough said.

“They’ll find that they’re good in art and they can go into commercial art, or they find out they’re good with singing.”

In preparing for regionals,Yarbrough said many of the students would practice at nights, balancing busy schedules to keep up their academics.

“It’s a lot of pressure,” she said.“You find out those that have integrity and are going to stick with it.”

Torchbearers’ elementary teacher Natalie Ocampo, who participated at both conventions a decade ago, guided the students in their projects throughout the school year.

“I did it when I was their age...and it was wonderful to see them develop their talents,” Ocampo said.The competitions also let students meet others who share the same interests, she said.

“I think it helps with their confidence— a lot of them come in very shy and into themselves not thinking they can do it,” she said.

The International Student Convention brings students together from several different countries, including the Philippines, South Africa and Canada.

Assistant principal Shalom Ocampo

Ninth-grader Rebeka Torres placed first in four individual events at the Sun Coast Regional Student Convention in Hudson.

noted it’s encouraging for Torchbearers’ students to meet and compete with others who come from different backgrounds, yet follow a similar curriculum.

“This curriculum, because it’s so individualistic and unconventional, sometimes you tend to feel like,‘Oh, I’m the only one,’ but thousands of students are using the same curriculum,” he said.“It opens up your mind ...and you feel the camaraderie and that same desire to make sure you do excellent work.”

Even though nine students qualified, the school officials are unsure if they’ll actually make the trip to Missouri this year due to the expenses involved.

In 2014, they sent three students to ISC, which was held at Indiana University of Pennsylvania.

Eleventh-grader Roberto Garza placed first in two individual events, including the Science Exhibit Research category.

A dominant ‘Sargent’ on the mound Kevin Weiss

kweiss@lakerlutznews.com

Land O’ Lakes High School junior Lance McCabe Sargent admits that if you watched him throw two years ago, you’d never expect him to be one of Tampa’s top prep pitchers.

“I didn’t have the best mechanics,” said Sargent, who doubles as the Gators’ starting third baseman. “When I’d go in from third (base) to pitch, I’d be all around the place, just kind of poor mechanics. I’d just go on the mound and throw because I had a pretty decent arm, so I’d just sling it.”

Through 43 innings, the 6-foot-1, 185pound right-hander boasts a miniscule 0.49 ERA — the best mark in Pasco County — making him one of the area’s toughest pitchers to face.

Though he’s always had a powerful arm, the Land O’ Lakes coaching staff wasn’t quite sure they had a pitching gem on their hands, until the start of the season.

“Their first words to me were, ‘Why haven’t you told me you could pitch before?

Why haven’t you asked me to throw in the bullpen?’” said Sargent, who’s in his first year pitching on the varsity level after throwing extensively in summer travel ball.

“We had an idea he was a pitcher, but he didn’t pitch at all last year,” said Land O’ Lakes head coach Jeff May.“We didn’t know how good of a pitcher he was going to be — we just knew that he had a very good arm. He was a little wild when he first came up with us, but...as he’s gotten bigger and stronger, he’s been throwing harder, and it kind of dawned on us,‘Hey, let’s give him a shot,’ and he’s performed really well.”

Sargent’s path to success this year began in the offseason and over the summer. He worked extensively with Tampa-based pitching instructor Anthony Telford, a former MLB middle reliever who spent parts of 10 seasons playing for the Baltimore Orioles, Montreal Expos and Texas Rangers through-

Lance McCabe Sargent has the lowest ERA (0.49) in Pasco County. His presence on the mound is one reason why Land O’ Lakes High School stands at 19-3 overall. He’s also a productive player at the plate, with a .394 batting average and 16 RBIs. In addition to his duties on the mound, Sargent is the starting third baseman for the Land O’ Lakes Gators.

out the ’90s and early ’00s.

Telford focused on improving Sargent’s pitching motion and follow-through, which has allowed the Land O’ Lakes standout to increase his fastball velocity from 82 mph to 89 mph, paving the way for a dominating junior season.

Once his senior year rolls around,Telford wouldn’t be surprised to see Sargent’s fastball velocity increase even further, perhaps reaching the low-to-mid 90s.

“He’s certainly strong enough,” Telford said. His arm action works real well — he has the athletic ability.What we focused on mostly with McCabe was just the mechanics…. of trying to get him to be able to throw the ball in the strike zone consistently.

“There’s a lot more development. He’s got the physical ability, and the thing that he does the best is he loves to compete,”Telford added.

Land O’ Lakes softball primed for deep playoff run

By Kevin Weiss

kweiss@lakerlutznews.com

Land O’ Lakes High School softball coach Mitchell Wilkins is taking things “one game at a time.”

Despite wrapping up a marvelous regular season (24-2-1), the third-year coach is trying not to get ahead of himself in looking at the pathway to a state title, though he knows his team matches up well against most opponents.

The Gators are rolling into the playoffs as one of the state’s hottest teams—reeling off 15 straight wins, many by large margins of victory.

“I think we’re set,” the third-year coach said.“I have in my mind how I want to approach as we go through regionals.”

To win the Class 6A FHSAA (Florida High School Athletic Association) state title, the Gators will have to win five straight games in the process, starting on April 20.

But,Wilkins is careful not to look too far ahead.

“I can’t be distracted by that, because we know what happened last year—we lost in the second round at the districts semifinals and didn’t get to go any further — so we have to look at each game and figure out what’s the best approach for that game before we start looking at a state championship.”

After finishing 24-3 last season—district semifinals’ hiccup aside— Wilkins knew he had an established team with lofty expectations entering the 2016 season.

ZEPHYRHILLS FOOTBALL STAR TEARS ACL Rising senior running back Antwione Sims will miss a portion of the 2016 regular season after he tore his ACL at a football camp about a month ago. Last year, Sims rushed for a school-record 2,093 yards and 24 touchdowns, and was named a thirdteam, Class 5A all-state selection.

The 5-foot-11, 196-pound back has offers from five schools, including Boston

“We knew we had good players, but we wanted to see how they matched up — and so far so good,” Wilkins said. “We’re really happy with what we have, not only one through nine, but we’ve got weapons on the bench that I can put in and feel just as comfortable having play.”

One player that Wilkins is always comfortable playing is senior ace pitcher Shannon Saile (four no-hitters, 0.66 ERA), who’s struck out 221 batters —which ranks fifth in the state. Her ability to throw all her pitches—fastball, curveball, screwball, riseball— in each quadrant of the strike zone has made the FIU (Florida International University) softball commit a nightmare for opposing hitters.

“She’s been a monster,” her coach said.

“She hits both sides of the plate. …She loves to pitch at the bottom of the strike zone.

“She gets a lot of swinging strikes—pitches out of the zone—because the (opposing) girls know they have to be ready and swing early, because she throws so hard.”

Averaging more than two strikeouts for every inning pitched, Saile’s presence in the circle has taken a significant burden off of the team’s defense,Wilkins said.

“Defensively, when I only have to account for one out an inning — that is such a blessing,” the Gators coach said.“That takes a lot of stress off our defense. The most stressful thing they have is waiting to see if somebody’s going to hit the ball and put it in play. …They have to stay on the balls of their feet the whole time, if somebody does hit it.”

College, a Football Bowl Subdivision school. The next player up on the depth chart is rising junior Elijah Thomas, a 5-foot6, 150-pound scat back.Thomas rushed for 222 yards on 18 carries in 2015. The Bulldogs will be led by first-year head coach Nick Carroll.

SUNLAKE’S BASILONE TIES SCHOOL HOME RUN RECORD Sunlake High senior catcher Gianna Basilone hit her eighth home run of the season against River Ridge on April 7, tying the school single-season record set in 2009 by Samantha Dittman. Basilone now holds the school record for most career home runs with 15. She currently leads all of Pasco County in the category, and is batting .476

www.LakerLutzNews.com

In addition to a blazing fastball, Sargent is equipped with a curveball, slider and changeup — which he uses to keep opposing hitters off-balance.

“On the lower part of the lineup, I throw more changeups just to not waste the curveball,” said Sargent, who models his game after New York Mets all-star pitcher Jacob deGrom.“In the 3, 4 and 5 hole, I’ll mix in a curveball, because they’re a little bit better hitters.”

The difference in pitch speed between his “violent” fastball and changeup has allowed Sargent to be virtually unhittable, and roll through opposing lineups with ease in the process.

“When you throw harder, it’s going to make your off-speed pitches that much better, and he’s got a very good off-speed pitch, too,” his varsity coach said.“It’s a good onetwo punch.”

“He’s got a natural ability that you can’t teach a lot of guys, which when you’re a coach, you’re immediately drawn to it,” May added.“He’s in the learning curve right now of becoming a good pitcher; he’s got the tools, and he’s (still) learning the game of pitching, too.”

Sargent’s current stats and high ceiling have already caught the eyes of several major Division I collegiate baseball programs, including the University of Central Florida, Florida Gulf Coast University,Alabama A&M, Stetson University, Radford (Virginia) University and High Point (North Carolina) University.

As he manages the extra attention — getting inundated with phone calls and messages from college coaches — Sargent is trying to stay focused on the task at hand: leading Land O’ Lakes (20-3) through a deep playoff run.

Beyond that, the right-hander has a more ambitious long-term goal in mind.

“My main goal has always been to play in the big leagues,” he said.“Since I was a little kid, that’s what I grew up wanting to do.”

Land O’ Lakes Gators softball Head Coach: Mitchell Wilkins (3rd year) Record: 24-2-1 Player to watch: Senior pitcher Shannon Saile (15-2 W-L, 0.66 ERA, 221 Ks, four no-hitters)

“Shannon’s been great. She’s done everything we’ve asked her to do and more.

She elevated her game a couple summers ago when she realized she had the opportunity to be the No. 1 pitcher. She added some miles per hour to her pitching speed and worked on her different pitches to be that dominant pitcher. She has worked hard to become that.”

— Coach Mitchell Wilkins SOPHOMORE SLUGGERS: Brianna Lindner (.375 avg., 4 HRs, 26 RB) Tia Williams (.463 avg., 4HRs, 30 RBI) Ashley Smith (.443 avg., 2 HR, 16 RBI)

Head Coach Mitch Wilkins has led the Gators to two straight 20-win seasons. The team will compete in the Class 6A FHSAA regionals, starting April 20.

Giving the Gators additional assurance heading into the postseason is the emergence of several young players, including two-way freshmen Callie Turner and Shelby Westbrook, and sophomores Brianna Lindner,Ashley Smith and Tia Williams.

“We have a good mixture of youth and veterans,” Wilkins said, noting eight of the team’s 14 players will earn their first varsity

letter.“This year, we are better pitching, but we haven’t hit quite as well as we did last year—but we haven’t needed to. In the same respect, we’ve played better competition this year.”

That “better competition” includes Springstead (24-1)— a team the Gators fell to 1-0 in extra innings in the season opener—whom Land O’ Lakes may rematch if both teams reach the regional finals.

“We know they’ve made some improvements since then, and we’ve made some improvements since then, so it’ll probably be a little bit different game,”Wilkins said, adding, “we’re confident we can play with them.”

“We feel — especially with Shannon pitching and our defense, and the emerging offense from our sophomore starters — that we can compete with anybody in the state.”

with 36 RBIs. She plans to play college softball at Oklahoma State University.

X-Factor: Freshman Shelby Westbrook (29 runs scored, 16 stolen bases)

“Shelby has really emerged as a weapon just with her speed. She creates a lot of havoc when she’s on base. All she has to do is put the ball in play, and it’s a really good opportunity for her to get on base.”

More than 200 cars and owners took part in the ‘Start Your Engines’ event at Medical Center of Trinity.

Cruisin’ in to show off their cars The Laker/Lutz News Staff Report

H

undreds turned out Medical Center of Trinity’s “Start Your Engines” Event, which featured an eclectic collection of customized cars, plus a chance for people to learn about keeping their own engines running smoothly.

The event took place at

9330 State Road 54 in Trinity, beginning at 10 a.m. on April 9.

Car enthusiasts had a chance to see interesting and unusual automobiles, and hear from owners who painstakingly restored them.

They also had a chance to pick up some information aimed at helping them live healthier lives.

Twenty-one-year-old Michelle Stein, of Tampa, checks out a high-performance Chevrolet Camaro that seems to be looking back at her at the Medical Center of Trinity’s ‘Start Your Engines’ event. Stein, who works for USF’s Global Medical & Dental Brigade, was on the hunt for vendors and doctors, she said, who would be available for an upcoming brigade fundraiser.

Visiting from England, Graeme Dunn takes a photo at the Medical Center of Trinity’s ‘Start Your Engines’ event. His children, 7-year old Isobela Dunn, bottom left, and William Dunn, 5, wait for their dad to get the shot. A 1979 reproduction car of a 1929 Ford Roadster, owned by Joseph Fiorilla of Port Richey, is on display behind the trio.

Wearing a shirt that matches the design on his show car, Mike Gellatly, of Riverview, puts the finishing touch to his 1932 Ford Coupe, which he says took 10 years for him to build. Gellatly said he’s owned the car for 16 years.

Robert Riehl’s T-shirt expressed a sentiment shared by many car enthusiasts. Riehl, of Spring Hill, was one of hundreds at the Medical Center of Trinity’s ‘Start Your Engines’ event. He brought his 2016 Dodge Challenger Hellcat, which he said has a 707-horsepower. His wife, Katherine, was there, too, showing off her Dodge.

Five-year old Evrett Hernandez, of Land O’ Lakes, found a Shelby Cobra that caught his eye while visiting the Medical Center of Trinity’s ‘Start Your Engines’ event. Evrett was there with his dad, George Hernandez, his brother Asher, 1, and sister Zemma, 3.

PET of the WEEK

Marlene is one cool cat

Aging gracefully Riley appeared in The Laker back in November 2001 at the age of 3.

She is now 17 years old and has retired to the Tampa Bay Golf and Country Club, in San Antonio, with her parents, Pete and Sue Nickerson. Riley enjoys golf cart rides around the neighborhood and naps on the front porch.

Box 479, Lutz, FL 33548 or email to news@lakerlutznews.com, ATTN: Pet of the Week PLEASE NOTE: OWNERS NAME AND ADDRESS MUST BE INCLUDED FOR YOUR PET TO BE CONSIDERED FOR PUBLICATION.

PET PAWS KITTEN SHOWER The Pasco County Animal Services department will host a kitten shower on April 20 at 6 p.m., in the conference room of Building B at 19640 Dogpatch Lane in Land O’ Lakes.

Cats that have not been spayed or neutered reproduce and flood the shelter with homeless litters and motherless newborn felines.

Come to the shower, have a piece of cake, fill out an application, and learn what it takes to be a foster parent of a newborn kitten.

Foster applicant interviews and approvals also will take place during the shower.

The animal services department has a registry and would appreciate any assistance in caring for these little ones. Items needed include kitten bottles and brushes, kitten formula/kitten milk replacer, heating pads (no auto shut-off), blankets, towels, sheets, canned kitten food, and clean, disinfected, lightly used kitten carriers.

For information, call (813) 929-1212.

LOW-COST PET VACCINES Pasco County Animal Services, 19640 Dogpatch Lane in Land O’ Lakes, is offering residents an opportunity to save money and protect family pets with $5 rabies vaccines and $15 microchips, on April 30 from noon to 4 p.m., or while supplies last.

Pet owners who purchase the low-cost rabies vaccines also will be required to obtain a county dog license at the price of $10 for an altered pet, or $35 for an unaltered

pet. The county licenses are required and can only be issued if the pet is up to date on the rabies vaccination.

For information, call (813) 929-1212.

BARN CATS NEED WORK Barn cats live primarily outdoors in a feral or semi-feral condition.They typically live in agricultural properties, around outbuildings or farm fields, and can substantially decrease issues caused by pests.

Pasco County Animal Services, 19640 Dogpatch Lane in Land O’ Lakes, currently houses several barn cat candidates. These cats can provide nontoxic and effective pest control.

Adoption fees have been waived for these out-of-work kitties.

WOOFSTOCK COMING MAY 14 Pasco County Animal Services will present “Woofstock” on May 14 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., at Florida Estates Winery, 25241 State Road 52 in Land O’ Lakes.

There will be live bands, kids’ crafts, pony rides, local vendors, food trucks, wine tastings and more.The fundraiser will help the care of sick and injured animals that come into the shelter.

A PCAS veterinarian also will administer $5 rabies vaccines and $15 microchips.

Tickets are $5. Kids age 10 and younger are free. For tickets and information on participating, visit FPCAS.org.

Koopa is a playful boy Koopa has been at the shelter for way too long, and would love to find an active family. He is working with our trainer here at the shelter, and knows the commands for sit and down, and also walks nicely on a leash. Come meet this handsome boy.

If you would like to adopt either Koopa or Marlene, be sure to visit Pasco County Animal Services at 19640 Dogpatch Lane in Land O’ Lakes. All adoption fees include spay/neuter, microchip and vaccines. For more information, email adoptionpartners@pascocountyfl.net.
