"First Steps Back"

Cover by Christy Martinez-Garcia This month's cover features a chalk drawing students can look forward to as they take their first steps back to school. Among buying school supplies and new clothes were new tennis shoes. I always liked purchasing that pair that would go with me on my many journeys and provide comfort as I took each step. I recall one child not having shoe laces or his old tennis shoes on that first day. Incidentally, as I looked at an old class photo, the way he positioned his feet demonstrated his embarrassment. As such, I urge that if you're able, please consider helping out a child in need buy buying them a pair of shoes. Your act may make all the difference in the steps they take in life. With that, good luck to all the students. ¡Y feliz regreso a clases!

Word from the Publisher/mensaje de nuestra fundadora

Querídos lectores... A

ugust is here and the summer is racing by. But before we go back to school let's take the time to enjoy family and the last days of summer. As a little girl, my grandfather Juan E. Castro took us fishing, which was his favorite past time. He shared the sport/hobby with us. We called my grandfather "Papi" and I can still recall how he wore a hat and smoked a cigar. My grandfather was an avid fisherman. And because each of his young kids paralleled my three younger sisters and me, someone always tagged along we all made it a point to join him. He loved the quiet time. And after he would teach us how to bait our hooks, Papi would share stories of when he went fishing as a kid. We would then pose many questions, and in his silly way, he would respond. Over the day we would increase our laughing and loudness, which probably made him regret he took us. Like most kids, we had a short attention span and lots of energy. Even though fishing was fun, exploring the lake was even more exciting. You would have thought we owned the lake as we made our way all over and someone always managed to get in the water even though we were told multiple times not to. I chuckle as I think about how my grandad did not complain when we wandered off, probably so he could have some peace and quiet. When we got hungry, he fed us bologna with the red ring that you peeled off before you ate, or potted meat, on white bread. That was really roughing it. After lunch, we napped - gently being lulled by the sound of the wind, water against the bank, singing birds, and the cool shade under his station wagon. The warm day absorbed all the energy out of us. When we woke up we were synergized and ready to repeat fishing, playing, and enjoyment of the day. When it was time to leave, we packed up and everyone fought to sit in the front. Once again we were loud and excited, and by then my granddad was ready to take us home. Although he wouldn't say it, he enjoyed everyone wanting to spend time with him. Soon, summer was over. Then it was time to get ready to go back to school. Unlike many of the other kids, my sisters and I didn't get school clothes until much later, which made sense because August was hot into September. The first week was tough as we got back into the rhythm of a school schedule. As classes ended, I'd meet my sisters and we'd rush home, kick-off our shoes, and play outside until the sun went down. Soon, summer turned to fall, and I think all of us longed to go fishing, and enjoy the days of simplicity and summer fun. On behalf of Los Hermanos Familia and Latino Lubbock Magazine, I invite you to please make plans to join us August 11, 2018, for our 10th Annual "Vamos a Pescar, Let's Go Fishing" FREE event. Our objective is strengthening families, and building community. We use fishing as a hook to bring families together, and experience fishing in a relaxing and safe environment with family and friends.

BY CHRISTY MARTINEZ-GARCIA LATINO LUBBOCK MAGAZINE

he Trump administration T announced last month that it will provide $12 billion in emergency relief

to ease the pain of American farmers slammed by President Donald Trump's escalating trade disputes with China and other countries. However, some farm-state Republicans quickly dismissed the plan, declaring that farmers want markets for their crops, not payoffs for lost sales and lower prices. The Agriculture Department said it would tap an existing program to provide billions in direct payments to farmers and ranchers hurt by foreign retaliation to Trump's tariffs. With congressional elections coming soon, the government action underscored administration concern about damage to U.S. farmers from Trump's trade tariffs and the potential for losing House and Senate seats in the Midwest and elsewhere. The administration said the program was just temporary. "This is a shortterm solution that will give President Trump and his administration the time to work on long-term trade deals," announced Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue as administration officials argued that the plan was not a "bailout" of the nation's farmers. But that provided little solace to rank-and-file happybank.com Republicans, who said the tariffs are

simply taxes and warned the action would open a Pandora's box for other sectors of the economy. "I want to know what we're going to say to the automobile manufacturers and the petrochemical manufacturers and all the other people who are being hurt by tariffs," said Sen. John Kennedy, R-La. "You've got to treat everybody the same." Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Neb., said the plan would spend billions on "gold crutches," adding, "America's farmers don't want to be paid to lose - they want to win by feeding the world. This administration's tariffs and bailouts aren't going to make America great again, they're just going to make it 1929 again." The program is expected to start taking effect around Labor Day. Officials said the direct payments could help producers of soybeans, which have been hit hard by retaliation to the Trump tariffs, along with sorghum, corn, wheat, cotton, dairy and farmers raising hogs. However, Rudy Arredondo, President & Founder of the National Latino Farmers and Ranchers TradeAssociation (NLFRTA) said this won’t be the case and that it would help producers of grain and oil.

“We are anticipating a crisis for failure to aid small to medium farmers. We produce 22% of food, and the folks receiving subsidies are grain and oil producers – that’s not food, that’s cattle feed, “said Arredondo, adding that Latino farmers have grown by 51%. He explained that the mission of NLFRTA, founded in 2005 in Las Cruces, is to organize, engage and empower Latino farm and ranching advocacy groups, farmworkers transitioning into farm ownership, and, generally, small producers, throughout the United States and beyond. He said that farmers and ranchers are the “first responders for any climate event 24-7”. “We are dealing with drought, and flooding. We are the EMTs of agriculture,” he said explaining that the relief assistance would not be of benefit to many farmers striving for sustainability and ranching policy for the improvement of farming operations. “This won’t be aid to all our farmers. Especially those producing food,” he said adding that the Farm Bill was also causing a high level of concern for struggling farmers and producers.

Census 2020: Emails Show Congress misled about

Decision to Add Citizenship Question

he National Association of Latino Elected T and Appointed Officials (NALEO)

Educational Fund released a statement from Chief Executive Officer Arturo Vargas following the release of internal emails from U.S. Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross to his staff addressing the addition of a citizenship question to the 2020 Census: “The release of these internal emails makes clear that Secretary Wilbur Ross intentionally misled Congress and all Americans about the timing and motivations for adding a citizenship question to the 2020 Census. “In his previous communications, Secretary Ross claimed that the initial consideration of a citizenship question addition began in December 2017 following the U.S. Department of Justice’s (DOJ) request for citizenship data to be collected at the block level in order to better enforce the Voting Rights Act (VRA). “These emails confirm that the addition of

a citizenship question to enforce the VRA is untrue and collaborate what advocates have known for some time—that politics, not science, drove the decision to add a citizenship question to the 2020 Census. “Depressing the response rates of the nation’s second largest population group by adding a citizenship question during a time of heightened fear and distrust of the government will result in a less accurate census that costs taxpayers millions more. If we don’t reverse course now and stop the addition of a citizenship question, we seriously risk a failed Census 2020. “We call on Congress to use its authority to conduct a thorough investigation to determine what additional information was knowingly withheld or misrepresented to Congress. The investigation should also assess the extent political motivations were the driving force behind the addition of a citizenship question to Census 2020.”

are concerned that the developing plan will perpetuate historical practices that isolated many North and East Lubbock communities from the rest of the city and concentrated industrial plants in their neighborhoods. During a public comment period, the Alliance of East Lubbock Neighborhood Associations (Alliance) submitted a 23-page letter to the Lubbock 2040 Comprehensive Plan Advisory Committee (CPAC) that highlights concerns and puts forth recommendations by the Alliance, whose members include multiple neighborhood associations and concerned citizens. More than anything, Alliance members want their voices heard during the development of the plan, says one of the attorneys who represent the Alliance. “These neighborhoods have come together as a group, eager to participate in both shaping Lubbock’s future and addressing the barriers that were created in their communities based on previous plans,” says Mark Oualline, an attorney with Legal Aid of NorthWest Texas’ Community

Revitalization Project (CRP) team. “The residents realize that they have a strong voice when united, and they are united in their efforts to work with CPAC to help develop a fair and viable plan for the City of Lubbock.” Among the recommendations made by the Alliance are to hold more public meetings during early evening and weekend hours to allow greater input from Lubbock residents, to halt the continued expansion of industrial land uses in areas that border residential neighborhoods in North and East Lubbock, and to address the lack of suitable public transportation by conducting a fixed route study of Lubbock’s Citibus system. “East Lubbock has seen very little development compared to the rest of the city,” says Alliance member Diana Thomas, a lifelong Lubbock resident. “What is in the (East Lubbock) area is hard to get to because of a lack of transportation. If you don’t have a car, it’s hard to get around.”

Impact of Tariffs

new analysis by the U.S. Chamber A of Commerce outlines the stateby-state impact of retaliatory tariffs

from China, the European Union, Mexico, and Canada, which have been imposed in response to new U.S. tariffs on imported goods. The analysis shows how much of each state’s exports are threatened by retaliatory tariffs, highlights each state’s hardesthit products, and shows the total number of jobs supported by global trade in each state, illustrating exactly what American families and consumers stand to lose in a potential trade war. “Tariffs are beginning to take a toll on American businesses, workers, farmers, and consumers as overseas markets close to American-made products and prices increase here at home,” said U.S. Chamber President and CEO Thomas J. Donohue. “Tariffs are simply taxes that raise prices for everyone. Tariffs that beget tariffs that beget more tariffs only lead to a trade war that will cost American jobs and economic growth.” As of this week, approximately $75 billion worth of U.S. exports will be subject to retaliatory tariffs. Escalating tit-for-tat trade actions promise to raise costs on American businesses and consumers, making it harder for families to afford everyday products like toilet paper, condiments, coffee, and ballpoint pens, which have been

targeted for retaliation. The analysis, found at www. thewrongapproach.com, includes a state-by-state breakdown of products targeted for retaliation by China, the EU, Mexico, and Canada, as well as how much those retaliatory tariffs could cost each state. Several states’ economies stand to be especially harmed by an emerging trade war. In Texas: In total, $3.9 billion of state exports will be subject to retaliatory tariffs. Pork and whiskey are among Texas’s hardest-hit exports. “The administration is threatening to undermine the economic progress it worked so hard to achieve,” continued Donohue. “We should seek free and fair trade, but this is just not the way to do it. It’s time to reverse course and adopt smarter, more effective approaches for addressing trade concerns with commercial partners.” The analysis was compiled using data on state exports from the U.S. Department of Commerce and data on U.S. exports subject to foreign tariffs from the official government sources of China, the EU, Mexico, and Canada. The analysis is available online at www.thewrongapproach.com. Statespecific fact sheets are available for download, as is the full U.S. data set.

Healthy School Lunches

ith a new school year here, W send your child to class with safe and healthy

lunches with these easy tips. Stay cool for school. Perishable foods should not be left out of refrigeration for more than two hours—but according to a survey by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, four out of five kids say they don't have access to a refrigerator at school. Help keep your child's lunch safe by packing it in an insulated lunch bag or lunch box, and including an ice pack or frozen beverage container. Skip the shortcuts. Most parents (73 percent) prepare their child's lunch in the morning before school, which can make for an early morning time crunch! So be sure to avoid shortcuts that can lead to foodborne illness. To

prevent cross-contamination, clear counter surfaces to remove any remnants of last night's dinner. Also, remember to start each day fresh by making sure your child's lunch box or lunch bag is washed with warm soapy water after each use. Create a (shelf) stable environment. More than two-thirds of all kids say they want to eat healthy foods for lunch—but healthy doesn't have to mean perishable. If refrigeration is unavailable, consider substituting perishables with shelf-stable foods such as trail mix, granola bars, bagels, carrot and celery sticks, whole fruit, single-serve sugarfree applesauce, cans of tuna and peanut butter.

Avoid Mosquito Bites The Doc or Is In S

ince the area has received significant rainfall recently, and the threat of the Zika Virus, the City of Lubbock wants to remind the public to avoid mosquito bites by doing the following: • Cover Up! Wear long sleeve shirts, long pants, and socks. Spray outer clothing with repellent when going outdoors. • Avoid! Limit time outdoors during dusk and dawn. Many mosquitoes bite at these times. • Spray! Spray insect repellent containing DEET, or picaridin.

The higher percentage of DEET, the longer the protection will last. • Drain! Just a small amount of standing water is enough for a mosquito to lay her eggs in. Look around weekly for standing water in pots, saucers, cans, tarps, tires, pet water bowls, rain gutters, etc. Mosquitoes can be vectors of such diseases as West Nile Virus and Encephalitis. See your doctor if you develop symptoms such as

headache, high fever, stiffness of the neck, mental confusion, muscle weakness, or tremors. City of Lubbock Vector Control staff monitors mosquito activity in all areas of the city. Mosquito spraying takes place, weather permitting, in areas of heavy mosquito activity first, then in other areas of the city and county. To report mosquitoes, call the mosquito hot line at 775-3110.

Foster Students Selected for $90,000 Scholarship

hen 19-year-old John Ever W Welch learned of his award, a wave of emotions took over and left

LOVE IS ALL YOU NEED: The Sanchez family were among the many parade participants who enjoyed the annual 4th on Broadway parade. They took time to pose with Quackles from the Quick Quack Carwash.

him in tears as he thought about his well-earned fortune. Welch is the third Sondra's Song resident to receive a $90,000 scholarship offered by the national Family Fellowship program called Together We Rise which provides financial support to young adults transitioning out of the foster care system. The scholarship is offered to 10 to 15 college-bound students between the ages of 17 to 23 years old. Former Sondra’s Song residents Welch and another former house mate were named 2018 recipients. Welch was shocked upon learning the news. “Life got a little easier,” said Welch. “I don’t have to drop out of school now. I was going to, so I can make more money, and then pick classes back up. I don’t have to do that anymore.” With a 3.6 GPA, Welch — who currently attends Texas Tech University — mailed in his essay and followed up with a Skype interview. From there, he flew to California for an in-person interview where he was joined by 11 students from across the nation, but he was told only 10 received the award. Fortunately, he was among those selected to receive $90,000 spread over five years. Welch said that Sandi Turner, provided

them the additional guidance needed to help them into adulthood while offering up a family environment through her transition home. The nonprofit agency is based in Lubbock and provides “a place to call home” for teens transitioning out of foster care. Through Sondra’s Song, Turner operates a home that can house about eight young adults amid transition while providing guidance, mentoring, and resources for the youth as they prepare for higher education or the workforce. "This achievement is phenomenal. The young adults who have applied from Lubbock are truly worthy. They overcome major obstacles — some even homelessness," said Turner. She added that some of their residents come with ambition and are ready to get to achieve their goals. "We are here to be that support system. We are here for the good and bad times. " Welch plans on attending law school after he graduates. While his shortterm goals include obtaining his driver’s license and purchasing a car, in the future he said he hopes to help young adults who have had a “broken childhood.” “This phase in life shouldn't be about survival,” he said, “and thankfully it doesn't have to be that anymore.” For more information, the Sondra’s Song website at www.sondrassong.org

was Itil tnotI made un-

the radical decision to place God in the center of my life that I started to witness a new self within me emerge. This summer has proven to be the most reflective and everblossoming season of my life! Last fall semester, I struggled in all areas of my life due to my lack of discipline that reflected the relationship I had with God at the time. Amidst the many tasks required of me— a scared and confused college student— I did not give my mind and heart the rest it desired. I knew there was a more fulfilling way to live this life, and that was

when I found pastor Michael Todd and Father Mike Schmitz on YouTube and started reading books by Matthew Kelly. My perspective on life and God’s will for me became clear. Once I rediscovered Jesus, I drastically changed; I anticipate going to church, read more, love more, eat healthier, and keep active. I wake up with a new and contagious energy that was given to me through the grace of God. I cannot wait to see how I improve in my academic endeavors this upcoming semester, and future medical and research achievements, as a result of my renewed relationship with God. I still can’t help but worry how I will manage this next semester, but I remain confident as I keep God and a supportive community close.

when they may have returned home after the first day with high spirits because they had a good time. Find another child in the neighborhood with whom your youngster can walk to school or ride with on the bus. If you feel it is appropriate, drive your child (or walk with her) to school and pick them up on the first day.

Si considera que es apropiado, lleve a su hija en automóvil (o acompáñela a pie) a la escuela, y pase por ella el primer día.

Caminando a la escuela a pie

segúrese de que el camino de su hijo hacia una A escuela sea una ruta segura, con adultos capacitados que trabajen como guardas para el cruce de calles en cada intersección. Sea realista acerca de las habilidades peatonales de su hijo. Dado que los niños de corta edad son impulsivos y menos cuidadosos respecto al tránsito, considere con sumo cuidado si su hijo está o no listo para ir a la escuela a pie sin la supervisión de un adulto. La ropa de color brillante hará que su hijo sea más visible para los conductores.

Walking to School ake sure your child's walk to M a school is a safe route with well-trained adult crossing guards

at every intersection. Be realistic about your child's pedestrian skills. Because small children are impulsive and less cautious around traffic, carefully c o n sider whether or not your child is ready to walk to school without adult supervision. If your child is young or is walking to new school, walk with them the first week to make sure they know the route and can do it safely. Bright colored clothing will make your child more visible to drivers. In neighborhoods with higher levels of traffic, consider starting a “walking school bus,” in which an adult accompanies a group of neighborhood children walking to school.

Developing good homework study habits C

reate an environment that is conducive to doing homework. Youngsters need a permanent work space in their bedroom or another part of the home that offers privacy. Set aside ample time for homework. Establish a household rule that the TV set stays off during homework time.

Supervise computer and internet use. Be available to answer questions and offer assistance, but never do a child's homework for them. Take steps to help alleviate eye fatigue, neck fatigue and brain fatigue while studying. It may be helpful to close the books for a few minutes, stretch, and take a break periodically when it will not be too disruptive. If your child is struggling with a particular subject, and you aren't able to help her yourself, a tutor can be a good solution. Talk it over with your child's teacher first.

Crea buenos hábitos de tarea y estudiar

ree un ambiente propicio para hacer la C tarea. Los jóvenes necesitan un espacio permanente para trabajar en su recámara u

otra parte del hogar que les ofrezca privacidad. Reserve tiempo suficiente para que se haga la tarea. Establezca una regla en el hogar que dicte que la televisión permanezca apagada mientras los niños hacen la tarea. Esté disponible para responder preguntas y ofrecer ayuda, pero nunca haga la tarea de un niño en lugar de él. Para ayudar a aliviar la fatiga de los ojos, del

cuello y del cerebro mientras se estudia, se recomienda que los jóvenes cierren los libros durante 10 minutos cada hora y vayan a hacer alguna otra cosa. Si su hijo está luchando con un tema particular, y usted no lo puedo ayudar, una persona que oriente a su hijo puede ser una buena solución. Hable al respecto con el maestro de su hijo primero.

After School Child Care

uring middle childhood, youngsters D need supervision. A responsible adult should be available to get them ready and off

to school in the morning and watch over them after school until you return home from work. Children approaching adolescence (11- and 12-year-olds) should not come home to an empty house in the afternoon unless they show unusual maturity for their age. If alternate adult supervision is not available,

parents should make special efforts to supervise their children from a distance. Children should have a set time when they are expected to arrive at home and should check in with a neighbor or with a parent by telephone. If you choose a commercial after-school program, inquire about the training of the staff. There should be a high staff-to-child ratio, and the rooms and the playground should be safe.

Cuidado de niños antes y después de clases mediados de la niñez, los A jóvenes necesitan supervisión. Un adulto responsable

debe estar disponible para hacer que se preparen y que vayan a la escuela por la mañana y vigilarlos después de clases mientras usted regresa a casa después de trabajar. Los niños que se están aproximando a la adolescencia (de 11 y 12 años de edad) no deben regresar de la escuela por la tarde a un hogar vacío, a menos que muestren madurez poco común para su edad. Copyright 2018 by Latino Lubbock Magazine

Si no hay disponible supervisión alterna por parte de un adulto, los padres deben hacer esfuerzos especiales por supervisar a sus hijos a distancia. Los niños deben tener un horario establecido en el que se espera que lleguen a casa, y deben llamar por teléfono a un vecino, o al papá o mamá para avisar que ya llegaron. Si elige un programa comercial para después de clases, pregunte acerca de la capacitación del personal. El personal no debe tener a su cargo a un número excesivo de niños, y los salones y el patio de recreo deben ser seguros. All Rights reserved.

Series About Mexican-American WWII Heroes to be Produced

From the Barrio, a thoroughly researched story about the MexicanAmerican men who fought in the Thirty-Sixth Division, 141st Regiment, Second Battalion, Company E during WWII; most of whom were from El Paso. Towards the end of 2017, Deadline reported that Venezuelan-Colombian actor Wilmer Valderrama had secured the film and TV rights to Gutierrez’s book with the intention of developing it. When asked about the project Valderrama stated, “I’m honored as a proud Latin American to amplify the courage and contribution of these incredible men.” Earlier this year, during a series of speaking engagements

Gutierrez went on to promote the novel, it was revealed that the actor’s production company WV Entertainment is leaning towards turning the book into a series. The war feature, whether it be television or film, is still an incredibly white-centric story with Latinos and African-Americans often playing cursory characters. Gutierrez’s book seeks to open up the kinds of stories we associate with war, showing us the men who sacrificed much and just happened to be Latino. Development takes time, so here’s hopingWV Entertainment is actively working on this to give audiences something new to watch in the near future.

Alvarez family!" The show, which premiered January 2017, follows the story of a single Latina mother who is raising her kids "with the 'help' of her old-school mom," according to Netflix. Rita Moreno, who plays grandmother Lydia, said she "CAN NOT WAIT" for the collaboration on Twitter. "One Day at a Time" is a remake of the 1970s Norman Lear sitcom, the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. The reboot features the

experiences of three generations of a CubanAmerican family, as they encounter social issues like gender identity, PTSD and racism. Season 3 of One Day at a Time is expected in 2019.

That leads to her getting a new job at a swanky Manhattan office. “Second Act” is directed by Peter Segal, and also stars Milo Ventimiglia as Maya’s husband. The movie was developed by STXfilms with Lopez from an idea conceived by Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas, who’s collaborated with Lopez before, and Justin Zackham. The pic marks a return to the

New York setting for Lopez, 16 years after she starred in “Maid in Manhattan.” “Second Act” is written by Zackham (“Lights Out”) and Goldsmith-Thomas. The producers are GoldsmithThomas, Lopez, Zackham, and Benny Medina. Lopez announced the project in June 2017, saying, “There are so many things I love about this project and script. People try to put women to sleep at a certain age. ‘Second Act’ is a story that empowers the every woman to do more, to be more, and not limit their dreams.” “Second Act” hits theaters on Nov. 21.

En Aquellos Días…

abía muchos Cursillistas en H la parroquia. Cada semana se llenaba el cuarto de actividades con

cursillistas. Mis padres estaban muy envueltos e n el movimiento. Mi papa fue el vocal varios años. Me acuerdo de que siempre andaban en las clausuras y apostolados. Cuando iban candidatos/candidatas de San Miguel a vivir un cursillo, todos los cursillistas de Levelland andaban bien emocionados y en ansias para recibir a los nuevos cursillistas. Mi mama y otras cuatro o cinco señoras empezaban a planear la comida y la música para el “recibimiento”. Había un entusiasmo que no se ni cómo explicarlo. Estos fieles miembros de San Miguel cantaban y alababan de puro corazón. Yo viví mi cursillo el 1966 en Plainview con el Padre Antonio González, pero nunca me puedo comparar a los cursillistas de aquellos días. Ahora se está acercando La Fiesta de Colores (26 de agosto) y se me vienen

a la mente los nombres de los grandes cursillistas que levantaron este movimiento en la parroquia de San Miguel en Levelland –Severiano y Luisa Castillo, Oscar y Julia Garza, Samuel y Juanita Montez, Blas y Petra Álvarez, Trino y Ofelia Gutiérrez, Romeo y Socorro Gutiérrez, Domingo y Rosa Gutiérrez, Rodolfo y Rosa Hinojosa, Gabriel y Julia Hernandez y muchos más. Y la música de Santos Villalobos, Chon García, Los Hermanos Garzas era todo lo que se oía donde quiera que se reunían los cursillistas. Mi mama, Juanita Montez de 93 años, todavía atiende las reuniones de grupo y las ultreyas. Es la matriarca de los cursillistas en Levelland. Siento un orgullo y una tristeza porque, aparte de mi mama y Rosa Hinojosa, ya están los demás en el cielo esperando a cada cursillista para celebrar otro “recibimiento”. ¡DE COLORES, Hermanos Cursillistas! Editor's Note: Rosario Montez Smith grew up en un rancho in Levelland, and enjoys sharing her memories of living in rural West Texas.

Victor Maldonado

A Leader on the Infield

FOR LATINO LUBBOCK MAGAZINE BY LINDSAY THOMPSON – RD MEDIA

etermination has been the key D to success for senior shortstop Victor Maldonado Jr, who has taken

on a leadership role for the Estacado Matadors this year. “He is very determined… or stubborn,” Coach Llanas joked. “He really works hard at what he does and takes his craft seriously. He just wants to succeed.” Vic has been playing baseball since the age of 4. His dad turned him on to the sport and he has loved the game ever since. “This is the best sport I’ve ever played, and the competition is really fun,” Vic said. “You have to be dedicated and willing to do whatever it takes to help the team.” Coach Llanas has coached Vic for the last three years and says he brings experience, dependability and leadership to the field that sets him apart from the others. “He’s the leader of the infield,” Mark said. “He’s the shortstop and that’s the most important position on the infield. He takes those younger kids under his wing and works with them. He does a lot for us in a leadership role where he talks to those players as an

intermediary between playe r a nd coach.” The team may be young this year, but with the talent they’ve got, both Victor and Mark are expecting a big season. “ We a r e really young, but we do come together as a g roup well,” Victor added. “We do have our ups and downs, but we should be really good this year. We’ve got a lot of talent.” Vic’s brother, Keanu Maldonado, is a sophomore and plays backup shortstop for the Matadors as well. When asked if he wanted to add anything, Vic confidently said “Watch out for us this year! I think we are going to go really deep into playoffs and I feel like we are going to win district!” Best of luck to the Matadors on a great season!

Gabe "Señor Sack" Rivera Passes abe Rivera, the Texas Tech Ring G of Honor member known by fans as “Señor Sack” throughout his Red

Raider career, passed away late Monday night at the age of 57. “The entire Red Raider family is saddened by the loss of Gabe Rivera,” Director of Athletics Kirby Hocutt said. “He was one of the most dominating defensive lineman to ever play the game and a loyal Red Raider throughout his life. He will be missed, and our thoughts and prayers are with his family.” Rivera, renowned as one of the most feared defensive linemen in the country during his Red Raider career from 1979-82, passed away in his hometown of San Antonio, Texas, after falling ill last weekend. Rivera remains one of the most decorated football student-athletes in school history as he was named to the National Football Foundation’s College Football Hall of Fame in 2012 and then the Texas Tech Ring of Honor in 2014. The Ring of Honor is the highest honor a Red Raider can earn in his career. “Donnie Laurence recruited Gabe when I was the defensive coordinator at the time,” said Jim Bates, a Tech assistant coach and defensive coordinator from 1978-83. “When we signed him, we knew we had a great football player, but we didn’t know how great he was until he got here.” A graduate of San Antonio Jefferson, Rivera didn’t waste much time before impressing not only Bates but Red

Raider fans in general. In fact, Bates recounts it only took the opening drive of the 1979 season opener against No. 1 Southern California before Bates realized just how special of a nose guard he had. “(USC quarterback Paul) McDonald ran around the left end, and Gabe ran all the way from his defensive tackle position to blow him up on the sideline,” Bates remembers the play. “It was a remarkable play for a defensive tackle. I looked over at the guys and said, ‘we have one here.’” Rivera went on to leave a legacy as a Red Raider, compiling 321 career tackles over the next four seasons, including 34 that went for a loss. He earned the “Señor Sack” nickname after punishing quarterbacks to a tune of 14 sacks over his career. He also added 11 pass deflections and six fumble recoveries from his spot in the middle. Rivera combined for 105 career tackles en route to being named a consensus All-American following his senior season in 1982. He posted 10 tackles for a loss, including five sacks, that season, while adding 25 quarterback pressures and eight pass breakups. “I can’t say enough about his football ability and what a great teammate he was,” Bates said. “He was a pleasure to coach. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family at this time.” Rivera, who was also an honorable mention All-American as a sophomore in 1980, was recognized as the Southwest

Conference Defensive Player of the Year in 1982 before being selected 21st overall in the 1983 NFL Draft by the Pittsburgh Steelers. His career came to a sad halt early in his rookie season when he was injured in a car accident just outside of Pittsburgh. Rivera was paralyzed from the waist down, ending his NFL aspirations. Since then, Rivera remained close to his alma mater, returning for several football games in the years following the accident. He was inducted into the Texas Tech Hall of Fame in 1993 and is currently on the ballot for the Texas Sports Hall of Fame. “He is obviously a big name in Texas Tech history. Everyone knew who Señor Sack was,” said Ron Reeves, who was a quarterback at Tech at the same time as Rivera. “I think he did a great job in staying involved at Tech. It was a highlight for a lot of us every time Gabe came back for a weekend.” Rivera is survived by his wife Nancy and his two children, Timothy and Rae. To honor Rivera, Texas Tech will wear a special helmet sticker throughout the 2018 football season.
