Chamber hears State of the City BY ANNE TERNUS-BELLAMY Enterprise staff writer
The city has made headway on business recruitment, increasing the housing supply and reducing risks to the budget from rising pension costs, but challenges lie ahead in other areas, according to Mayor Brett Lee. Lee, joined by City Manager Mike Webb, presented the annual “State of the City” address to the Davis Chamber of Commerce on Wednesday, where the duo presented the city’s accomplishments over the last year and laid out the challenges that lie ahead. “It’s not all sunshine and rainbows,” Lee said. “We are under no illusions… we have not lost sight of the fact that we have some real challenges that we need to address.” Chief among those challenges will be trying to come up with the millions of dollars needed to repair and maintain the city’s many miles of roads and bike paths. A recent report to the council showed the city has the worst roads in the region with a pavement condition
index — the standard by which the quality of streets and bike paths are gauged — continuing to decline. Simply maintaining the current PCI of the city’s roads would require $75.9 million over the next 10 years plus an additional $22.2 million to maintain the current bike paths, the report found. Actually improving them would cost even more. “The reality is we need to be spending more money on taking care of our roads,” Lee said Wednesday. “The council is cohesive on this,” he added. “Staff is cohesive on this. We recognize we need to be putting more funding to road repairs and maintenance and bike path repairs and maintenance. This is a high priority for us.” Another top concern, he said, is the recent spate of armed robberies in Davis. “This is unusual and the council finds it unacceptable,” Lee said. “We recognize we have some basic responsibilities to the community.

“The court finds that the Flood Board was a responsible agency and had no duty to review all environmental arguments (the Friends of Putah Creek) raised during its determination whether to issue the subject encroachment permit, and that its review was appropriately limited to flood control,” Daniels said in his decision.
The UC Davis School of Medicine has expanded its curriculum to include more education on opioids, the school announced in a press release last week. Public information officer Edwin Garcia said UC Davis is adding more teaching on addiction and pain management “in an effort to better prepare tomorrow’s doctors for the opioid epidemic and its devastating effect on public health.” In 2017, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) declared a public health emergency to address the misuse of opioids.

Supervisor Jim Provenza entered the final month of his reelection campaign with significantly more money to spend on wooing voters than his two challengers, Linda Deos and David Abramson. All three are seeking to represent District 4 on the Yolo County Board of Supervisors, a district which encompasses much of north, east and south Davis as well as unincorporated portions of the county south of the city of Davis. According to mid-January financial filings, Provenza still had $93,113 in cash on hand for the campaign, compared to $19,547 for Deos and $2,764 for Abramson. (Abramson had set a campaign budget of about $5,000 and planned to use no lawn signs or mailers).

Briefly Cops chase alleged car thief Davis police arrested a Woodland man Tuesday after he allegedly led officers on a pursuit in a stolen car. Lt. Art Camacho said officers on routine patrol located the stolen car in the Target parking lot, where the suspect — later identified as Frank Lynn Creamer, 38 — entered the vehicle. “When officers attempted to conduct an enforcement stop on the vehicle, Creamer fled the scene, driving westbound on Second Street at high speeds with a Davis PD unit in pursuit,� Camacho said, adding that Creamer continued to flee on foot after stopping the car near Salamanca Court in East Davis. From there, Creamer entered the back yard of a residence on Ponteverde Lane, where police took him into custody and found him in possession of drug paraphernalia and burglary tools, Camacho said. He was booked into the Yolo County Jail for those alleged offenses as well as driving a stolen vehicle and evading police.

back it up. I mean, it’s logical to assume that higher salaries attract better teachers, but in reality, higher salaries generally attract just about everybody. In any event, the best argument for Measure G is that we ought to pay teachers what they’re worth because it’s the right thing to do, not because teachers in Elk Grove make more than our teachers do. There are, of course, enormous advantages to teaching in a place like Davis, a town that reveres education and has a highly educated populace that is willing to support our schools. Just wait until Election Day rolls around and the two-thirds requirement for passage of Measure G is eclipsed with ease. And if it doesn’t pass, I still have those two shiny quarters (plus four sparkling pennies) in my pocket, ready to do my part. — Reach Bob Dunning at bdunning@davisenterprise.net.

Convicted murderer Anthony Louis King was granted parole by a twocommissioner panel of the Board of Parole Hearings, following a hearing Wednesday at the California State Prison, Corcoran. During the end of summer in 1987, King was 16 and living in Knights Landing. On Sept. 6, 1987, Steven Patton, 35, was murdered while fishing at Portuguese Bend, a popular Knights Landing fishing spot. King and his co-defendant Kenneth Bivert had befriended Patton and drank beer with him on three occasions that night. King and Bivert wanted to go joyriding, so they later returned to the fishing spot to kill Patton. After Bivert shot Patton in the side of the face with King’s shotgun, King took the victim’s money and keys from his pockets. Together they threw Patton’s body in the river before they took his truck. Two days later, King and Bivert killed again. They made a plan to rob the local Bank of America and decided they needed a getaway car. They returned to the same fishing spot, where they found husband and wife Raymond and Dawn Rogers fishing. King was armed with Bivert’s .38 Special revolver, while Bivert was armed with a .44-caliber Magnum revolver. They also
brought King’s 12-gauge shotgun with them, using the weapons to shoot and kill the couple. A Yolo County jury convicted King of multiple counts of murder and robbery on July 8, 1988. Four months later, Judge James Roach sentenced King to 52 years to life in state prison. Bivert pleaded guilty to the murders on Jan. 14, 1988, and also was sentenced to 52 years to life for the crimes. In 2001, Bivert was sentenced to the death penalty after he fatally stabbed a fellow inmate at Salinas Valley State Prison in Soledad. Now 50, he is incarcerated at San Quentin State Prison. Chief Deputy District Attorney Jonathan Raven, along with Dawn Rogers’ sister and niece and Raymond Rogers’ daughter, participated in the parole hearing by telephone conference. District Attorney Victim Advocate Kenya SalazarCampos supported the family members of the victims. Commissioners Rosalio Castro and Christopher Uroni agreed that King no longer posed an unreasonable risk to society if released. Castro told King, “You are now 49 years old. Your change is a complete turnaround from what we saw when you were 16. We felt you showed good insight and remorse and you have realistic parole plans.�

after one year. “Ms. Perez is looking forward to putting this unfortunate situation behind her,� Candice Fields, Perez’s attorney, said following the plea in Yolo Superior Court Judge Peter Williams’ courtroom. “Arrangements have been made to repay the YCOE in full today.� Authorities said Perez embezzled more than $23,000 over a nearly fouryear period from the YCOE, where she had been employed by the agency since 2005, most recently as the director of College and Career Readiness. In a factual basis for the plea read aloud in court, Assistant Chief Deputy
District Attorney Melinda Aiello said that between Nov. 7, 2014, and Oct. 22, 2018, “while she was entrusted with property she did convert to her own personal gain funds including excessive mileage and misappropriation of computers,� the losses totaling $23,371. The Yolo County DA’s Office had previously announced that Perez used a YCOE credit card to make unauthorized personal purchases, and that she had falsified the mileage claims. Fields, the defense attorney, said it was Perez who “brought this matter to the YCOE’s attention.� Charges were filed in late December following an investigation that began in October 2018.

OPIOID: ‘Goal is to engage medical students’ From Page A1 died in the United States by overdosing on prescription opioids, with the number of deaths increasing dramatically in recent years. In 2017, five times as many people died from prescription opioid overdoses than in 1999, according to the Center for Disease Prevention and Control. The UCD curriculum expansion was incorporated into a summer pharmacology course, which is taken by all medical school students, for the first time last summer. In the course, a case-based approach is used to teach students about pain pathways, oral opioids, nerve related pain, and how to identify opioid use disorder. “The goal is to engage medical school students in a case they might see,� said Naileshni Singh, a clinical professor of anesthesiology who coteaches the pharmacology course. “For example, someone who broke an arm and may need to be on opioids. Then we will switch gears and talk about a post-surgical patient, who at first is appropriately prescribed opioids, but then develops an abuse problem. Students will learn how to assess the risk of opioid therapy and how to transition to other treatments if the patient is not doing well on opioids.� The inclusion of opioid education in the UC Davis curriculum is a result of three years of research and observation by Singh and several other professors at the UC Davis School of Medicine and other medical
campuses across the UC system. While the curriculum expansion at UC Davis has started with the pharmacology course, the School of Medicine plans to furSINGH ther expand its opioid education and to Professsor of weave pain medicine anesthesiology components into other aspects of medical school training, such as in the clinical years. “Every UC Davis School of Medicine graduate will have the necessary knowledge and clinical skills to reduce the morbidity and mortality of the opioid epidemic in our country,� said Mark Servis, the vice dean for Medical Education at UC Davis Health. According to Singh, pain plays a central role in lots of outpatient and hospital visits, but education on pain medication lags behind. “The No. 1 reason someone presents to their physician is a pain-related complaint,� Singh said. Partly because of a lack of knowledge, Singh said, doctors have prescribed opioids at a rate that contributed to the epidemic. “We attempt to over-treat pain with opioids which has partly led to the prescription opioid crisis and unintentional deaths,� she said. According to the CDC, the overall opioid prescribing rate in the U.S. has fallen over the past several years as medical professionals learned more about the dangers of opioid addiction.
However, doctors today still prescribe about three times as many opioids as they did 20 years ago. In 2017, there were 58 opioid prescriptions written for every 100 Americans, with 17 percent of Americans having had at least one prescription filled. In 2018, more than 10 million Americans misused prescription opioids, HHS reported. Singh said she received “zero� training in prescription opioids while she was a medical student at Stanford University in the early 2000s. Until now, she said, the main opioid education offered at the UC Davis School of Medicine had been a lecture on intravenous opioids, which are used for anesthesia. “There is very little education on pain medication in general nationwide,� Singh said. “This is an ongoing process.� UC Davis’s decision to prioritize opioid education reflects a belief that educating the next generation of doctors about pain and prescription opioids is a key part of addressing the national crisis, the school said. “When you don’t know enough about pain management, you might treat a patient in certain ways because you don’t know what else is out there,� Singh said. While opioid education is new to UC Davis, professors at the School of Medicine are already working to expand aspects of the new curriculum to other medical campuses across the UC system.
GUNFIRE: Police investigators are not ruling out any scenario From Page A1 where he remained in critical condition Thursday night, Davis police Lt. Art Camacho said. Camacho did not disclose where on his body the teen was shot, or whether the shooting was accidental
or a suspected crime. “We are ruling nothing out at this early stage of the investigation,� Camacho said. One other person who was inside the apartment at the time “is cooperating with detectives.� A resident of Tuscany Villas, Joshua Lee, said in an
email to The Enterprise that he witnessed victim being loaded into an ambulance, and that he appeared to have a wound to his chest. “I hope he makes it through. Nice kid,� Lee said. The scene investigation
remained active several hours after the initial call, with yellow crime-scene tape surrounding the twostory apartment unit and several officers standing guard outside apartment as they waited for a search warrant to be obtained.

To protect that investment, most people make sure they keep up with the necessary maintenance and safety recalls, as well as getting sufficient insurance coverage. However, there’s a lot more you can do to protect the investment in your car, to help it last longer and to improve performance, safety and even your enjoyment of the vehicle over the years you’ll be driving it. Here are some of the top aftermarket parts and accessories to consider upgrading for enhancing your vehicle’s performance, safety and longevity.
Brakes One of the best — and most cost-effective — ways to improve your vehicle’s safety is to be sure that your brakes are always in top condition. Whether you go all out for top upgrades like a high-quality brake pad setup and steel braided brake lines, or if you just invest in good quality performance brake pads, you’ll
have more peace of mind if you know you’ve got the best stopping power that you can afford for your vehicle.
quieter, smoother ride, no matter the road conditions.
Tires
Especially if you live in an area that experiences dense fog or heavy snowfall, or if you do a lot of driving at night or early in the morning, high-quality fog lights can really improve your safety and visibility. This is a must-have if you live in certain climates, or if you drive frequently in remote or rural areas. Aftermarket fog lights are available in a variety of sizes and shapes to suit a wide range of vehicles, so be sure you are selecting a fog light appropriate for your car or truck. This is one upgrade that’s easy to take care of yourself.
Because reliable tires are one of the most crucial elements for auto safety — especially since they are the only parts of a vehicle that touch the road — it’s a good idea to invest in high-quality tires that will not only last longer, but that provide consistently better handling in a variety of extreme weather conditions, from rain and wet roads to ice and snow. For example, Yokohama Tire’s latest all-season premium touring tire, the new AVID Ascend LX, is designed for passenger cars, minivans and crossovers, and offers superior wet traction, dependable winter traction and longer tread life, which is backed by an 85,000mile limited tread life warranty. Top-notch tires will not only offer better safety for you and your passengers, but will also improve fuel efficiency and provide a
Fog lights
Spark plugs If your vehicle is experiencing intermittent difficulty starting up or accelerating, or if you
notice occasional misfires or feel your engine is idling roughly, replacing your spark plugs can make a big difference. Fuel economy can also be improved by replacing older spark plugs. You can choose between four different types of spark plugs — iridium core, copper core, platinum and double-platinum core. Your best bet when replacing spark plugs is to check your vehicle’s owner’s manual to be sure you’re choosing the best type for your particular car or truck.
Wiper blades Especially if you live in an area that experiences weather extremes, finding the best quality all-weather or heavy-duty wiper blades can make your driving experience much safer, whatever the season. You also want to make sure that you change the wiper blades frequently to ensure

they’re working effectively, usually every six months to a year. If you notice streaking or other issues with visibility, it’s time to change them. It’s best to make sure that any wiper blades you get are the correct type and size for your vehicle’s windshield. Depending on your budget and specific concerns, choosing aftermar-
ket parts or accessories to upgrade on your vehicle — even minor ones — will be likely to enhance your safety as well as the car’s performance over time. Prioritize what is the most important factor to you in choosing upgrades or enhancements that make sense for your vehicle. —Brandpoint

THE DAVIS ENTERPRISE
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 2020 A5
FUNDRAISING: Election Day is less than a month away From Page A1 in the bank. Since then, he has collected another $57,000. His largest contribution during this campaign has come from the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation — $10,000 in January — with sizable contributions also coming from unions, real estate developers and farmers. Contributions included $1,500 from Binning Ranch Holding Company, LLC, and $1,000 from Taormino and Associates (the two entities behind the West Davis Active Adult Community); $1,000 from Teichert, Inc.; $2,500 from Wilson Farms of Clarksburg; and $500 from Davis Firefighters Local 3494 PAC. Individual contributors included Supervisor Duane Chamberlain of the rural 5th District (who is in a reelection fight of his own); former supervisors Helen Thomson, Mariko Yamada
and Lois Wolk; former Davis City Council members Dan Wolk, Maynard Skinner and DEOS Ted Puntillo; DJUSD trustees Joe DiNunzio, Alan Fernandes and Bob Poppenga; Mayor Pro Tem Gloria Partida and Councilman Lucas Frerichs; former Yolo County Sheriff Ed Prieto and a couple of attorneys in the Yolo County District Attorney’s Office — Chief Deputy District Attorney Jonathan Raven and Deputy District Attorney Matthew De Moura. All told, Provenza reported contributions from around 100 individuals. Deos, meanwhile, reported about $27,000 in contributions in 2019 and loaned her campaign $30,000 as well. During
ABRAMSON
PROVENZA
the first two weeks of January she collected another $4,000. The local cannabis industry proved particularly supportive of Deos, contributing more than $10,000 to her campaign. Those contributors included Yolo Family Farms ($1,500); Woodland Roots, Inc. ($1,500); Kind Farms, LLC ($1,000) and Yolo 1, LLC, and Yolo 2, LLC, each of which contributed $2,500. That said, Provenza also received contributions from commercial cannabis businesses in Yolo County — $2,500 from Yolo Family Farms and $500 from Kind Farms.
Deos also reported campaign contributions from current and former elected officials, including Supervisor Don Saylor of Davis; Partida; and former DJUSD trustees Martha West and Susan Lovenberg. Also supporting Deos were former DJUSD superintendent David Murphy; former Davis City Council candidate Ezra Beeman; and Yolo County public defender — and previous candidate for Yolo County District Attorney — Dean Johansson. All told she has received contributions from more than 80 individuals during her run for the Board of Supervisors. Abramson, meanwhile, raised a little over $6,000 in 2019 from 17 different individuals and reported no additional fundraising in January.
District 5 Over in the fifth supervisorial district, where
Woodland City Councilman Angel Barajas is challenging longtime incumbent Chamberlain, Barajas reported $58,909 in monetary contributions in 2019 and added nearly $10,000 more in early January. Barajas also benefitted from the local cannabis industry, receiving nearly $10,000, including from Kind Farms, Woodland Roots and Yolo Family Farms. Among the individuals contributing to his campaign were current and former county supervisors, including current board members Saylor and Gary Sandy of Woodland and former Supervisor Matt Rexroad of Woodland. The Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation also contributed $5,000 to Barajas’ campaign. Chamberlain, who, like Provenza, did not face a challenger in the last election, entered his re-election
campaign with far less cash on hand than Provenza — about $14,400. He reported $5,150 in contributions in November and December — having announced his re-election bid late in the year — and added $1,850 in the first two weeks of January. Chamberlain also loaned his campaign $30,000 in January, on top of the $20,000 he loaned his campaign in 2019. Three of the five seats on the Yolo County Board of Supervisors are on the March 3 ballot. In addition to the contested races in the fourth and fifth districts, District 1 is also on the ballot but incumbent Supervisor Oscar Villegas of West Sacramento is unopposed. — Reach Anne TernusBellamy at aternus@ davisenterprise.net.

CITY: Mayor, city manager lay out challenges to Davis going forward From Page A1 understand that as a city we need to provide a safe community for people to live, work and own businesses. So we have not forgotten that.” Lee also said he believes the community sees how the current council and city staff are moving the city forward. “For those of you who deal with the city on a regular basis, I would guess you have seen… we are going in the right direction and we are picking up momentum,” he said. “(W)e have a decent council, we have stability and some vision within the city manager’s office and we have good frontline employees. And (Webb) and his team are empowering those employees and helping set expectations for what we want the city government to be. “I am very optimistic about the
future of Davis,” he said later. Among the city’s recent accomplishments that Lee and Webb highlighted during Wednesday’s chamber luncheon: ■ Successful grant applications that have netted the city about $16 million in grant funds in the last two years, including $7.2 million for the planned I-80/ Richards Boulevard interchange project which Webb said is in the design process now and is expected to get underway next year. ■ Agreements reached with the city’s labor groups that shift increasing pension costs to employees when CalPERS requires higher contributions. ■ The planned opening this month of a daytime respite center for the city’s homeless, which Lee said will provide a place for the homeless to go during the day, to shower, do laundry, access county services and simply find shelter
from the winter weather. “I expect a decent number … to make use of this facility,” the mayor said. ■ Approval of new housing projects that will bring thousands more beds to the city. Of the latter accomplishment, Lee noted that “the city for years and years did not approve any new apartment complexes of any noteworthy size.” One of the results, he said, is a vacancy rate of less than one-half of one percent. That, in turn, means more students packing into single-family homes, said Lee. “But there will be a lot of apartments coming online,” he said, including city-approved projects like Nishi, Sterling and Lincoln40, as well as on-campus construction that will result in about 5,000 more beds over the next few years. A memorandum of understanding reached between the
city, county and UC Davis, Lee noted, means the university itself will provide housing to accommodate future increased enrollment.
12 housing projects in the works — under construction, approved or under review — “quite a bit of activity is happening.” And while housing for students and seniors has been the focus of recently approved projects, the city is also focused on workforce housing, Webb said. As for economic development, “we’ve had a number of really nice successes over the last couple of years,” said Webb. They include the Nugget Market headquarters under construction in Mace Ranch; the nearly completed Residence Inn just down the street on Mace; the Hyatt under construction on Cowell Boulevard in South Davis and the recent grand opening of the Mars-Wrigley research and development facility in downtown Davis. So while challenges face the city, said Lee, overall “we are making good progress.”
“I fully acknowledge, and the university has fully acknowledged, that in the past there have been consequences from enrollment growth without comparable growth in housing, but we’ve addressed that,” said Lee. “Will there be bumps in the road? Absolutely. But the fundamental agreement … will balance that out.” “It will absolutely have a positive impact on our very, very low vacancy rates,” added Webb. “That hopefully will relieve some pressure on the singlefamily neighborhoods that are experiencing quite a bit of pressure on the rentals and people packing in.” Webb said that with more than
PUTAH: Solano County judge finds no reason to allow lawsuit to proceed From Page A1 “(Friends of Putah Creek) presented no evidence during the administrative review by the Flood Board, or any flood control issues, nor did it dispute the evidence presented by the Flood Board that no flood control issues precluded issuance of the encroachment permit at issue here,” Daniels stated. Given the nature of the questions Daniels asked during the Nov. 19 hearing, it is not surprising that his
decision focused largely on the technical issues of jurisdiction of the Central Valley Flood Protection board with regard to environmental review, and whether the board by issuing a permit had become a “lead agency.” Alan Pryor, a director and treasurer for the Friends of Putah Creek, said in a phone interview that he had not yet seen the court decision, but suggested the matter may not be settled. “Certainly we will be speaking with our attorney about what our next step will
be,” Pryor said. “We feel strongly that the Flood Board was the lead agency because (it was) the only agency that has reviewed (the project) since the mitigated negative declaration was certified more than 10 years ago,” Pryor said. The issue of whether the Flood Board was a lead agency or a responsible agency was a point of contention in the hearing, and one about which Daniels inquired extensively. Nicole Rinke, the state
deputy attorney general representing the Flood Board, argued that the agency’s sole jurisdiction is to maintain the integrity of the flood plain, and that the board had received information from a variety of sources, including the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, that the restoration plan was not a risk to that integrity. At that point, Rinke argued, the board had no option other than to issue the encroachment permit so Solano County Water Agency could proceed with
the creek alterations and other work in the restoration plan. — Todd R. Hansen is

Hmmmm … that ‘may’ be the chancellor I showed up to campus one recent morning with a much different set of work tools than usual. In this case, I was equipped with a pair of pruning shears. My mission? To get a hands-on learning experience about the people who make UC Davis shine. I met with the Arboretum and Public Grounds team, a hardworking crew dedicated to not only keeping our campus beautiful, but upholding our principles of sustainability. They’d been given a heads-up that a new member was going to join their team for the day. However, they didn’t know it was going to be me. Could I hang with this grounds crew and not cut myself? And what could I learn about the workers who show up to campus each day with their “A” game? That was the premise for the first installment of “That ‘May’
Be The Chancellor.” It’s a new UC Davis video series that’s in the spirit of “Undercover Boss,” a TV show that first aired in the United States in 2010. Our program gets me on the frontlines with the people who raise UC Davis each day to greater heights. I want to help share their stories and show the heart of our UC Davis community. You can find it on YouTube or on the web at leadership. ucdavis.edu. I’ve never wanted to be the kind of leader who just stays parked in an office all day. You
can’t help but feel inspired when meeting the people in our diverse UC Davis community — the students, staff and faculty who make this great university come alive. Their stories, dreams and successes remind me every day of UC Davis’ mission to accelerate social mobility and make this world a better place.
T
hey are people like Mario, the head groundskeeper who led our team that morning. He came to the United States from Mexico as a child, and started working on our sprawling UC Davis gardens and greens while earning a degree in environmental horticulture. Mario was recently promoted to a supervisor role, another great step on his journey at UC Davis. He intends to stay a while. “We like the sense of community (in) Davis — not just on
campus but the city itself,” he said. Mario and his crew take great pride in keeping the campus looking postcard perfect. Our lush Arboretum is a jewel of the entire region, a popular spot for joggers, family walks and others seeking tranquility. This crew’s dedication and hard work keeps it thriving for all. I was especially impressed to hear about sustainability being at the front of their minds, like seeking irrigation methods that use less water. They are a direct reflection of why UC Davis is ranked No. 1 in the country for sustainability. But, how much could the chancellor hang with them? Our mission for the morning was to thin some bushes around campus. I started by driving a Gator utility vehicle with Mario that hauled a few of our work tools. We rolled past Mrak Hall, around the Shields Library and
went to work near North Hall with those pruning shears. I’d like to think my clipping was a little helpful, but these guys are the pros. By the end of it all, I had a whole new appreciation for what Mario and his crew bring to UC Davis every day. I was proud to wear the blue polo shirt that declared, “UC Davis Arboretum and Public Grounds.” The next installment of “That ‘May’ Be The Chancellor” is set for early spring. I’m still plotting about where to show up. The expansiveness of UC Davis means a world of opportunities to meet side-by-side with its workers. Like I said at the end of this first video: I’m not sure where I’ll be next. But, look up and that “may” be the chancellor. I hope you’ll tune in! — Gary May is chancellor of UC Davis; his column is published monthly.
LETTERS Provenza: steady leadership Now, more than ever, our local government agencies must work collaboratively to address the big problems of the day. We increasingly rely on partnerships to supply clean power, conserve natural resources, supply water, protect aquifers, create affordable housing and help the homeless. In an era of sparse government resources, collaboration is the best way to make taxpayer dollars go further and to deliver effectively and efficiently on our promises. Fortunately, time and again, Supervisor Jim Provenza has proven himself to be a great partner to the city of Davis in taking on the challenges we face together. Jim helped negotiate annexation agreements that will allow greatly needed new housing projects for seniors and students to proceed in our city. Under Jim’s stewardship, the city and county are jointly discussing traffic problems on Mace Boulevard, helping to fund and site a daytime homeless shelter, and providing a critical support system for struggling families with the Yolo Crisis Nursery. As anyone watching the recent supervisorial forum saw, Jim is a bit uneasy bragging about his own accomplishments. His natural style prefers teamwork to showmanship. For the work he has done, and what he promises to do the next four years to provide continued and steady leadership in Yolo County, he has earned my support for District 4 county supervisor. Dan Carson Davis City Council
Letter: Measure G I hope all Davis voters will vote Yes on Measure G. Here’s why: Teachers in general are paid less than other professionals with similar education requirements, as a remnant of the sexist old idea that women’s work was a second income. Those days are gone, but teacher salaries are still lagging, especially in Davis: teachers here are paid less than in Woodland, Dixon, Winters, West Sac and Sacramento. Davis values good education. Good education requires good teachers. To attract and hold onto good teachers we need to pay them accordingly. I teach first grade here, and my school has lost several excellent teachers recently who left for better pay nearby. If you have young children it’s a nobrainer. For those without kids in the education system, it’s still a no-brainer. Davis housing values are high in large part because of the reputation of our school district. Let’s keep it that way. Vote yes on G. Dana Sodergren Pioneer Elementary
Quality and consistency I’m voting yes on Measure G. I have enjoyed teaching mathematics and anthropology around the world with a confidence and fluency incubated by the Davis public schools I grew up with. I thrive on the challenge of new students, uncertainty, and a disconnect between concepts and their understanding. However, children are
not so sure-footed starting out, and need proper consistent academic role-models to stoke latent interests. As a matter of course and curiosity I have worked as a substitute educator at most Davis public school sites and have found similar concerns over candid conversation among parents, teachers, and administrative staff: there is no shortage of passion among Davis instructors, but DJUSD shortages highlight problems with turnstile-attrition and retention as educators are persuaded by salaries and compensation packages more in line with modern costs of living in Davis and California at large. It is perplexing that we live in such an affluent town, yet underfund our public schools and naively assume they will continue to produce the same results they did 30 years ago without attention given by the communities they serve. Consistency is a critically undervalued quality in a child's upbringing and we can only lean on the goodness of an educator's heart for so long before she leaves for a job that affords her groceries. Please join me in supporting a stable academic environment for students, teachers, and the city of Davis by voting yes on Measure G. Edward A. Bennett Davis
Yes on Measure G! Living in Davis isn’t cheap ... and not just because of great schools. We also have over 50 miles of greenbelts, tons of parks, low crime rates, a world-class university, an award-winning Farmers Market and more. I believe that all of these amenities, which greatly enhance quality of life, are worth supporting with my tax dollars. While my family may not be able to afford the biggest house, we certainly enjoy a big, rich life that cannot be found in other communities. As a former teacher, someone who still

works in education, a mom of two Davis students, an avid community volunteer, and the Climate Committee PTA Chair at the only Title I school in Davis (Montgomery), I’ve been fortunate to have lots of opportunities to explore the research (economic, social, and otherwise) into the benefits of supporting rich, stable learning environments for the future citizens who will someday soon be tasked with being community caretakers and leaders. Everyone in the community benefits when — from the earliest stages — kids and those who support them are appreciated by and connected to their community. Stable, supportive educational environments are connected to everything from reduced crime rates to higher home values to the likelihood of kids growing up to economically contribute to their communities (as opposed to being supported by their communities through social services). Since the Davis community has not demonstrated an appetite for increasing salaries by reducing educational offerings and programs, a modest parcel tax (of about 55 cents a day) seems a small price to bring teacher and school staff salaries in line with surrounding districts. It bears mentioning that parcel tax exemptions are offered for seniors, those on SSDI, etc. I hope that those who appreciate the many benefits of supporting educators will join me in voting #YesOnG and will encourage others to do the same.

Fourth District Why is a Green New Deal platform so important in the Yolo County 4th District race? It’s the crux of our mission as a species moving forward. It’s a global necessity to tackle the business implications of putting regenerative agricultural at the forefront.

Carbon sequestration starts with soils and farming practices. Yolo County is about 85% agricultural land. The county’s Board of Supervisors has five seats which work together to design and implement strategies for the county government. The 4th District seat covers the Yolo Bypass down to the delta; South, East and North Davis; and parts of agricultural land to the north. The majority of the agricultural land lays within the 5th District which stretches from Woodland to the County’s northern boarders and from the eastern Sacramento River to the Berryessa range and southwest of Winters to the Solano County border. Having a well-researched and strong voice for ecologically dynamic farming practices on the board will be essential. In the grand scheme of things, Yolo County is just a speck, but it’s the perfect speck within which we can work together to develop new business paradigms that support healthy air, water and soil preservation. From transportation, housing and agriculture to social justice programs, creating a mutually beneficial model for ecologic and economic prosperity within our county can provide a viable template for other counties in California to emulate. With the rich knowledge of research happening at UCD, collaborations for sustainability are well within reach. David Abramson will be the best potential supervisor to catalyze such a sensible approach to our increasing duty to act locally. David will be able to continue addressing the issues of import that Jim Provenza has initiated during his time on the board, and with that we can bridge an important generational gap that will ensure longevity to preserving our precious lands. As a father of two and a communityinvolved citizen, I vote David, because we all need our voices heard. Jord Nelsen Davis

Handy uses for smartphone camera BY JACCI O’CONNOR AND JAY WOODS Special to The Enterprise
A
t some point during my month-long cold I ran out of cough medicine, decongestant, etc., so I showed Jay the empty medicine containers and asked him to pick up some replacements at the drug store. After about an hour and a half, at which point I wondered if he’d run out of gas or gotten lost (can you actually get lost in Davis?), I received a text message with a photo of the halfmile-long Cough & Cold aisle at the drug store and the question: “Which one did you want me to get?” To be fair, there are no less than 16 versions of Robitussin and at least 14 of Mucinex (not counting the pediatric formulas), and multiple versions of any and every cold remedy under the sun. I looked at the picture Jay had sent me and knew immediately what to do — I snapped photos of my empty medicine containers and texted them back to him. Now all he had to do was match the photos to the correct products on the shelf — a simple “pattern recognition” task. And he got ’em all right. Do you use your smartphone’s camera to its fullest capacity? Here are

Wondering which one to get? Your smartphone can help. some of the other ways we’ve saved time and made daily life a little more convenient with our phones. Have you tried any of these? Has your gym posted a sign on the door with their special holiday hours? Snap a quick pic of that sign and now you’ve got the holiday hours at your fingertips (or in your pocket or purse…). Do you need to order a part for your malfunctioning dryer? Open the door and take a picture of the plate on the inside of the door with the model number and other specs you may need. Now go order the part online or head to the store with the information (i.e. the photo) on your phone.
Did you lose your wi-fi connection in a power outage? You’ll need your wi-fi network’s name and password which is usually printed on the side or underside of the router. Which is usually hiding on the floor in a dark corner (and often behind a desk). Don’t unplug and disconnect the router so you can see the number and write it down. Instead, take a photo of the router plate, then go to your computer, look at the photo and reenter the password. Leaving your car in long-term parking at the airport? Or a downtown parking garage?

Have you ever been in physical therapy and once home wished you could remember exactly how to correctly do that exercise the therapist showed you? While at PT, ask someone nearby to take a photo — or even a short video — of the correct form or movements that you can refer to later at home. We’ve had some great therapists and assistants who are happy to film demos for us. What are some of the other creative ways you’ve used the camera on your smartphone? If you’re reading our column online, leave a comment with your ideas and suggestions.
Do you need to order a part for your malfunctioning dryer? Open the door and take a picture of the plate on the inside of the door with the model number and other specs you may need. As for sending Jay to the store — I’ve learned to always create pictorial shopping lists for him. He’s got images on his phone of low sodium soup cans, peanut butter jars, salad dressings, pasta packages and even the bin numbers of items we buy in the bulk grocery section. Now he comes home delighted and confident that he’s purchased exactly what was on the “list,” and I get to feel very appreciative that I’ve got a hubby with a willing spirit and a good sense of humor! — Jacci O’Connor and Jay Woods own Tech Over 60, www.techover60.com.

And the winners will be ... Several of the top categories could yield a few surprising results
87-year-old Williams is unlikely to work long enough to overtake Uncle Walt, although that’s less significant than you might think. As studio executive producer, Disney “earned” dozens of nominations that rightfully should have gone to directors and other individuals. Williams’ nominations and five wins are his, and his alone. But enough stalling, I hear you cry; let’s get on with it! OK, fine: Let’s see how badly I embarrass myself this year…
BY DERRICK BANG Enterprise film critic Oscar continues to be an international ambassador. South Korea’s “Parasite” earned an impressive six nominations: a rare feat for a film American viewers had to watch with subtitles. “1917,” a U.S./UK co-production, garnered a whopping 10 nominations; “Ford v Ferrari,” a U.S./ French co-production, captured four. “Jojo Rabbit,” with six nominations, partnered New Zealand, the Czech Republic and the United States. Antonio Banderas earned an acting nod for Spain’s “Pain and Glory”; Jonathan Price and Anthony Hopkins both are cited, for the UK/Italian co-production of “The Two Popes.” So … how will it all shake out? Hard to say. Sidebar competitions notwithstanding, most of the suspense focuses on the battle between “1917” and “Parasite.” But before we get down to cases, some fun facts: ■ “Parasite” garnered nominations (among others) for both Best Picture and Best ForeignLanguage film. It’s the sixth

Their films tied for nominations, with six each. ■ First-time nominee Scarlett
Johnasson secured nods for both “Jojo Rabbit” (supporting) and “Marriage Story” (starring). That hasn’t happened since 2007 when Cate Blanchett was up for “Elizabeth: The Golden Age” and “I’m Not There.” (She lost both.) ■ Saoirse Ronan snagged her fourth nomination at the youthful age of 25. She’s the secondyoungest woman to do so,
following Jennifer Lawrence. ■ North Macedonia’s “Honeyland” snagged nominations for both Best Foreign-Language Film and Best Documentary feature, the first time this ever has happened. ■ John Williams received his 52nd Academy Award nomination, edging ever closer to Walt Disney’s record of 59. Sadly, the
Ordinarily, this would be a smackdown between the two scifi franchise entries: “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker” and “Avengers: Endgame.” But savvy viewers recognize that it’s much harder to deliver persuasive special effects in a real-world story, and I still have a vivid memory of the stunning airplane crash into the barn. I’m going with Guillaume Rocheron, Greg Butler and Dominic Tuohy, for “1917.”
Makeup, hairstyling “Joker” could capture this category as part of a small sweep, but makeup doesn’t play much of a role until the film’s third act. Renée Zellweger’s transformation into Judy Garland owes a lot to makeup, but Charlize Theron’s

Cho and friends to perform romantic Valentine’s Day show BY JEFF HUDSON Enterprise staff writer
C
ellist Eunghee Cho, a 2012 graduate of Davis High School, returns to his home town for a concert of romantic music on Valentine’s Day (Friday, Feb. 14) at 7:30 p.m. in the Melon Ball performance space at Watermelon Music, 1970 Lake Blvd., Suite 1. After graduating from DHS, Cho earned a bachelor’s degree in cello performance at the University of Southern California’s Thornton School of Music and then completed a master’s degree in cello performance at the New England Conservatory of Music, where he is now pursuing a doctorate. Cho will perform alongside two similarly young musicians. Japanese-born pianist Tomomi Sato has studied at USC and at The Juilliard School in New York. Sato won the Seattle International Competition in 2013 and is a staff pianist at The Juilliard School’s college and pre-college divisions. Violinist Tatjana Roos, born in London, has studied at the Royal Academy of Music, the Yehudi
Menuhin School and the New England Conservatory. Cho established the Mellon Music Festival in Davis in 2017; Roos and Sato were featured artists in 2018 and 2019. On the program will be mostly Romantic-era European music from the 1800s, plus one American selection from the first half of the 20th Century: ■ “Three Romances” for violin and piano, composed in 1853 by Clara Schumann, who was married to composer and conductor Robert Schumann and was a longtime friend of the pianist and composer Johannes Brahms. Robert Schumann’s deteriorating mental health led to his voluntary commitment to a mental asylum in 1854, where he died in 1856 (at age 46). Clara, who regarded Robert as the love of her life, never remarried. Brahms remained a lifelong bachelor, but Clara Schumann and Johannes Brahms remained close friends and musical associates for the rest of their lives. Brahms would show his new scores to Clara and seek her opinion and Clara performed the premiere of a number of Brahms’

Clara died in 1896 at age 76 and Brahms died in 1897 at age 63. ■ The Jascha Heifetz arrangement (for violin and piano) of selections from the George Gershwin opera “Porgy and Bess.” Gershwin’s opera premiered in 1935 and Gershwin died in 1937 at age 38. The Heifetz arrangement was completed in 1944. ■ The “Introduction and Polonaise Brillante” of Frédéric Chopin, one of his comparatively early works for cello and piano that
was published in 1831. A few years later, Chopin began a romantic relationship with the French novelist George Sand (a woman about six years older than Chopin who preferred to wear gentleman’s attire in public and smoked cigars). Chopin was already ailing from tuberculosis at the time he met Sand; he died in 1849 at age 39. ■ The Piano Trio No. 1 in D minor by composer/ conductor Felix Mendelssohn, completed in 1839,

the year that he turned 30. It remains one of his most popular and is highly regarded by critics (including Robert Schumann, who heard an early performance of the piece and dubbed Mendelssohn “the Mozart of the nineteenth century.” Mendelssohn married Cécile Charlotte Sophie Jeanrenaud (the daughter of a French clergyman) in 1837 and they had five children. Mendelssohn was introduced to the Swedish soprano Jenny
Lind in 1844 and he was so taken with her that he began composing an opera with her in mind and sending her passionate love letters. Mendelssohn’s extremely busy work schedule, compounded by the devastating loss of his sister Fanny due to a stroke in 1847, sent his health into a swift decline. He died (after a series of strokes) at age 38, just six months after his sister; Schumann was one of the pallbearers at his funeral. In 1849, Jenny Lind established the Mendelssohn Scholarship Foundation (awarded to promising young composers). Mendelssohn’s wife Cécile died in 1853 at age 36, about five years after her husband. Lind enjoyed a long and prominent musical career and died in 1887 at age 67. ■ The concert will be topped off with additional “classic love song favorites.” Tickets are $15 if reserved in advance online and $20 at the door. There are also free tickets for “kids and students,” which must be reserved online in advance at www.mellon musicfestival.com.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 2020
“Parasite” focuses on the Kim family — from left, Ki-woo (Woo-sik Choi), Ki-taek (Kang-ho song), Chung-sook (Hye-jin Jang) and Ki-jung (So-dam Park) — as they attempt to better their lower-class status through a series of deceptions against a naïve wealthy family. The South Korean dark comedy is nominated for six Oscars, and could become an upset Best Picture winner. COURTESY PHOTOS
WINNERS: Some are hard to guess From Page B1
Director/scripter Greta Gerwig, left, discusses a key scene with Meryl Streep, who plays the wealthy and feisty Aunt March in “Little Women.” Although the film garnered six Oscar nominations, including Best Picture, Gerwig was shamefully left off the list of director nominees.
impersonation of Megyn Kelly is even more impressive. I’ll, therefore, go with Kazu Hiro, Anne Morgan and Vivian Baker, for “Bombshell.”
Sound mixing This category represents the totality of the soundmixing process — the music, the dialogue, the background noises and everything else — whereas the next category focuses more specifically on fabricated sound (sound effects, like visual effects). More often than not, both sound awards go to the same film, and four of this year’s nominees are, indeed, in both categories. Two of them are “Ford v Ferrari” and “1917,” and I expect a close battle in both categories. Even so, sound mixing played a major, major role in this film’s suspense and excitement, so expect the statue to be claimed by Mark Taylor and Stuart Wilson, for “1917.”
Sound editing Same answer: Oliver Tarney and Rachel Tate, for “1917.”
Production design The 24th annual Art Directors Guild Awards, presented Feb. 1, were divided into three branches, for period, fantasy and contemporary; the winners, respectively, were “Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood,” “Parasite” and “Avengers: Endgame.” Only the first two also are Oscarnominated in this category, along with “Jojo Rabbit,” “1917” and “The Irishman.” In other words, a very tough call. A sweep by either “1917” or “Parasite” easily could include this category, but I’m going with my gut. Quentin Tarantino’s faithful replication of the late 1960s is simply stunning, so I want to see the statue go to Barbara Ling and Nancy Haigh, for “Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood.”
Costume design The 22nd annual Costume Designers Guild Awards, presented Jan. 28, also were divided into three branches, for period, fantasy and contemporary; the winners, respectively, were “Jojo Rabbit,” “Maleficent: Mistress of Evil” and “Knives Out.” “Jojo Rabbit” is the only carryover in this Oscar category, and its chances are slim (much as I admired Scarlett Johnasson’s many outfits). There’s a much better choice, because this woman was kept busy with a large ensemble cast: Jacqueline Durran, for “Little Women.”
Original song Like there’s any doubt: “(I’m Gonna) Love Me Again,” from “Rocketman.” (And I can’t wait to see it performed during the Oscar telecast!)
Original score This, on the other hand, is a challenge. Oddsmakers favor Hildur Gudnadottir, for her unsettling aural tapestry in “Joker,” but it’s hard to classify her efforts as melodic. I’m far more partial to the sweeping themes and cues by Alexandre Desplat and Thomas Newman, for (respectively) “Little Women” and “1917.” Desplat already has won twice, whereas Newman now has 15 (!) nominations and no wins. C’mon, it’s gotta be his turn. But I suspect not. Hildur Gudnadottir, for “Joker.”
Animated feature Anybody’s guess. “Missing Link” is a charmer, and the animation style is adorable. “Toy Story 4” and “How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World” are the most polished and big-studio-perfect, but both franchises have gotten creaky. I’m far more partial to this nominee’s imaginative script and snarky humor: co-directors Sergio Pablos and Carlos Martínez López, for “Klaus.”
Foreign-language The safest bet of the evening: South Korea, for “Parasite.”
Editing The American Cinema Editors’ 70th annual Eddie Awards ceremony took place Jan. 17; their awards are divided between drama and comedy/musical, and the winners, respectively, were “Parasite” and “Jojo Rabbit.” Both are nominated in this category, and “Ford v Ferrari” is another strong contender. Extremely strong, in fact: Michael McCusker and Andrew Buckland, for “Ford v Ferrari.”
Cinematography The 34th annual American Society of Cinematographers Awards banquet, which took place Jan. 25, gave the top prize to Roger Deakens, for “1917.” I call that well-deserved, and a likely harbinger of things to come. This is Deakens’ 15th nomination, with only one previous victory, for 2017’s “Blade Runner 2049.” Get ready to see him collect another gold statuette, for “1917.”
Adapted screenplay The 72nd annual Writers Guild of America Awards, presented Feb. 1, gave this
Writer/director Quentin Tarantino, left, enjoys a laugh with star Brad Pitt, during the shooting of “Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood.” The revisionist 1960s fantasy is nominated for an impressive 10 Oscars. award to Taika Wiatiti, for his wildly creative script for “Jojo Rabbit”; he’s also a nominee in this corresponding Oscar category. Although writers are notorious for loyal voting in solid blocks, Wiatiti doesn’t have a prayer. This will be a consolation prize for the filmmaker who didn’t get a director nod for a film that captured six other nominations: Greta Gerwig, for “Little Women.”
Original screenplay The Writers Guild gave this one to Bong Joon Ho and Han Jin Won, for “Parasite,” and they’re in a neck-and-neck battle with Quentin Tarantino, for “Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood.” Despite the momentum “Parasite” has gained during the past several weeks, Academy voters love projects about their own endeavors. I’ll therefore go with Quentin Tarantino, for “Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood.”
Supporting actor Where the heck is Christian Bale, who should have been cited for his phenomenal performance in “Ford v Ferrari”? Given the individuals actually nominated, Anthony Hopkins should be a shoo-in for “The Two Popes,” but he doesn’t have a chance. Amazingly — because his performance is the weakest of the lot — all the momentum belongs to this fellow. I have to raise my eyebrows and accept that Brad Pitt will win, for “Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood.”
Supporting actress It should be Kathy Bates, but “Richard Jewell” has been tainted by scandal; that destroyed whatever chance she might have had. Lots of folks loved Florence Pugh’s work in “Little Women,” and Margot Robbie has impressive scenes in
“Bombshell.” But Oscar love seems destined to reward this individual, for her third nomination and (hopefully) first win: Laura Dern, for “Marriage Story.”
Actor Another sure bet: Joaquin Phoenix, for “Joker.”
Actress You can’t go wrong impersonating a Hollywood icon: Renée Zellweger, for “Judy.”
Director Another lock: He won the Golden Globe, the BAFTA and the 72nd annual Directors Guild of America Award (the latter presented on Jan. 25). It’ll be Sam Mendes, for his simply stunning work on “1917.”
Picture Given Mendes’ certain win as director, you’d think “1917” would be a slamdunk in this category, as well. Had the voting taken place a few weeks ago, the double win would indeed have been assured. But “Parasite” has gained considerable momentum as we draw closer to the big night, and it could become an upset winner that splits the usual double-act (as was the case last year, with Alfonso Cuarón, who directed “Roma,” and “Green Book,” which took Best Picture). Sigh. I’ll nonetheless go with tradition, and good ol’ Hollywood razzle-dazzle: “1917.” — Derrick Bang will be camped in front of his TV set for most of Sunday afternoon and early evening.

Romping through everything from blues to bluegrass to roots rock, Dirty Cello features cellist, singer and fiddler Rebecca Roudman. The band will perform at The Palms in Winters on Friday, Feb. 14, at 8 p.m.
Dirty Cello to bring blues, bluegrass, rock Special to The Enterprise Sure, Rebecca Roudman plays cello in two symphonies, long considered cellists’ natural habitat. But the cellist, singer and fiddler comes into her own when she’s fronting her eclectic roots band, Dirty Cello. “I love classical music, but I grew up listening to all types of music, and I wanted to play that music on my cello,� she told Strings Magazine. “So I decided to just go for it. I formed Dirty Cello to give me a way to do something different from my other playing.� Dirty Cello will return to The Palms Playhouse, 13 Main St. in Winters, at 8 p.m. Friday, Feb. 14. Tickets are $20 in advance, $24 at the door and $12 with student ID. From China to Italy to Iceland and across the U.S., Dirty Cello brings the world a high-energy and unique spin on downhome blues with a wailing cello, foot-stompin’ bluegrass and scorching rock. According to the Los Angeles Times, “The group seamlessly careens from blues to bluegrass and rock in a way that really shouldn’t make sense but somehow does.� Banish the image of a sedate, seated classical cellist from your mind. This band’s vivacious leader plays standing up, her futuristic black
carbon-fiber cello supported by a frame while she all but dances with it as she and her band deliver originals and some genre-hopping covers. Lou Fancher of Oakland Magazine described Dirty Cello’s music as “all over the map: funky, carnival, romantic, sexy, tangled, electric, fiercely rhythmic, and textured, and only occasionally classical.� Roudman occasionally swaps cello for fiddle for half a song when the spirit and the tune move her. In addition to Roudman, Dirty Cello is guitarist Jason Eckl, bassist Colin Williams, drummer Ben Wallace-Ailsworth and ukelele player and pianist Sandy Lindop. The group’s two most recent releases are the album “Bad Ideas Make Great Stories� and the EP “Half-Grassed.� The band suggested that spending Valentine’s Day evening listening to a “nottypical� cello-fueled band is a good way to mark the day “without the typical nonsense,� promising a fun and casual evening equally well suited to couples or singles. Tickets are available at Armadillo Music in Davis, Pacific Ace Hardware in Winters, Davids’ Broken Note in Woodland, online via The Palms’ website and at the door if the show is not sold out.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 2020
Surge ebbs for Ag men Enterprise staff IRVINE — Center Brad Greene — a load at 6-11, 270 pounds — carried the day with 17 points and 12 rebounds for UC Irvine as the visiting UC Davis men couldn’t overcome a first-half deficit and fell, 83-72, at Bren Events Center in a Thursday Big West confrontation with the front-running Anteaters. The loss moved UCD to 9-15 overall and 3-5 at the halfway point of conference play. UCI moves to 15-9 and 7-1 in BWC. “I think there’s some really good takeaways from this game. I loved the way we started,” UCD head basketball coach Jim Les explained, adding
that he thought the Aggies defense forced the ball into the hands of the Irvine players they wanted to take shots. “But they made those shots, so give them credit.” It was an up-and-down first half for the Aggies, who led early, then fell behind, 23-13, before launching a comeback effort. After Anteater Tommy Rutherford’s jumper opened a 10-point lead halfway through the period, Roger Printup canned a free throw for Davis and the Aggies got busy. A 3-pointer by Kennedy Koehler was followed by Elijah Pepper’s layin. A Stefan Gonzalez trey was next and a 9-2 run brought UCD within 3.
But Irvine’s tuned-up offense — augmented by a significant height advantage — prevailed to intermission. Jeron Artest, Isaiah Lee, John Edgar and Collin Welp all ripped the net from beyond the arc. Suddenly it was 44-31 before two charity tosses from UCD’s Caleb Fuller put the ledger at 44-33 at halftime. “I loved (our) fight in the second half,” reported Les. “I felt as the game got tighter, our physicality and those 50-50 balls ... we just didn’t come up with some of those (big plays). But I loved the way we competed and never gave up.” Read more online at www. davisenterprise.com.
UCD women top Titans Enterprise staff FULLERTON — Trailing by one at the half, the UC Davis women’s basketball team opened the second half with three consecutive treys to not only take the lead from Cal State Fullerton but also gain much-needed momentum to pull away for a 72-61 Big West Conference win Thursday. Cierra Hall led the Aggies (12-9 overall, 7-1 BWC) with 17 points, Kayla Konrad had 13 and Katie Toole finished with 12. “(In close games), it’s just mentality,” said Hall in a radio interview after the game. “We know how to
win. We’ve been in games in every possible situation, so we know whatever it comes down to, we have the heart and strength to pull out the win. “There’s never any doubt.” Hall, Konrad and Toole also snagged seven rebounds each as the Aggies out rebounded the Titans (119, 3-4) 38-30 and limited them to 5 second-chance points. Fullerton guard Raina Perez (averaging 20.6 points per game) was held to 15 points, and forward Amiee Book (12.6 ppg) was limited to 3. “We were just keyed in on who was

scoring for them,” Hall said. “We knew before the game taking Perez out would be key. … We started playing great team defense. “(Rebounding) was something we were struggling with at the beginning of the season,” the junior forward added. “We’ve been working on it, and it’s nice when get into game to put that ferocity to work and battle with them. … You don’t have to be 6-4, you just have to have heart.” The Aggies Southern California road trip continues as they travel to UC Irvine for a Saturday meeting at 2 p.m.
Aggies take two Enterprise staff Veterans stepped up for the UC Davis women’s softball team Thursday as the Aggies swept the first day of the NorCal Kickoff tournament at La Rue Field. Senior shortstop Isabella Leon laced four total hits with four RBI, and classmate Marisa Given collected a single to push across the winning run in an extra-inning 9-8 nightcap over Cal Baptist. The
Aggies routed Saint Mary’s 6-2 in the opener. Against Cal Baptist, UCD jumped out 4-0 in the first, and the Lancers equalized in the third. The Aggies added four in the bottom of the third to take an 8-4 lead, only to have CBU add two runs in the fourth and seventh innings. The Kickoff continues today with the Aggies facing Boise State at 2 p.m.
DHS wrestlers hit the mats for postseason BY EVAN REAM Enterprise staff writer After one of the most successful postseason runs in program history last year, the Davis High wrestling team begins its run this weekend at the Delta League Championships at Sheldon High School in Elk Grove. Last season was nothing short of a banner year for the Devils, who sent 11 boys and three girls to the Masters Tournament — two rounds farther than the one this weekend. That season was capped off by now juniors Zach Brooks and Adrienna Turner, who each qualified for the State Tournament,
with Brooks becoming the first DHS boy to do it since 2001. This weekend, however, each wrestler will need a top-five finish to make it to next weekend’s divisionals, and head coach Johnny Rosendale is bullish on their chances. “Wrestling in the postseason is kind of a weird thing. The Delta League is one of the toughest leagues in wrestling in Northern California, but I think we’re going to do well there,” Rosendale said. “The last time a boy qualified for the State Tournament, other than last year, was in 2001 until Zach Brooks got there last year. I think he’s going to go back
this year, and so will Adrienna. “If the kids continue to work and continue to improve and continue to do the things that we’re working on, we’ll have a better chance to bring more kids to States this year.” For the second straight year, Davis High finished with a 4-2 record in league, good enough for third place, after having a losing record for most of this century. This was accomplished thanks to a group of underclassmen who have taken the Delta League, and last year’s postseason, by storm. Expected to make long runs, of course, will be Brooks and Turner.
LEMAR: Perspective is key From Page B8 So how does one deal with feeling darkness? What do you do when you feel like it’s an uphill battle? Everything is about perspective. You’ve seen me miss shots during my UC Davis days. I’ve struggled before, but I also made it through those tough times. Remind yourself who you are. I know I’m built for my passion. Without pain, how can we know joy? I’ve had times where I felt I’m on top of the world. We all had moments we wish we can relive. (Didn’t my Aggie teammates and I win a Big West title against all odds — then take an NCAA Tournament game a week later?) Confidence is everything, believe that you will prevail, because you will. I’m just reminding you. Always believe you’re going to get to the
position you’ve been working toward. You will meet the person you’ve been dreaming about, get the job you’ve applied for or make the team and excel if you’re an athlete. Adversity brings out the truth within us. There’s no running from it. As I said earlier, I just felt there’s someone out there who needed a fresh dose of encouragement; someone who wants to be better even though they’ve had a tough stretch. Push forward, my friend. You’re never alone. Don’t get discouraged because no one can tell you how much heart you have. — San Diego native Brynton Lemar is a former all-Big West Conference player for UC Davis who has spent the last three years playing basketball professionally throughout Europe (France, Hungary and now Poland). Periodically Lemar will write about his experiences for The Enterprise.
VICTORY: Devils hold off rally From Page B8 Although the scoreline appeared decisive, the game was in question despite DHS dominating most of the play. The Eagles had few chances, and those that they did create went straight into the hands of junior goalkeeper Roland Watts. On the attacking side, the hosts dominated, but just couldn’t hit the back of the net. Though almost every attacking opportunity created space between the PGHS midfield and back line, somehow none of those chances reached the back of the net. That was until the 59th minute of the game ... All contest long, Devil winger Conner Clark was a thorn in the side of Pleasant Grove. Whenever he got the ball, he either beat his defender easily or created a chance for a teammate. For his efforts, he nearly finished the game with a hat trick. First, opposite-side winger Angel Salgado found himself behind the defense and rifled a cross to the back post that Clark took down with his first touch and then roofed into the
back of the net with his second touch. One minute later, Clark’s high pressure saw him win the ball, accelerate into the box and attempt to finish off the game with a near-post shot, but he could only hit the post and have the ball unluckily rebound straight into the arms of the prone Eagles goalkeeper. Still, Clark finished off the game in the 64th minute, again getting behind the PGHS defense (thanks to another feed from Salgado) and leaving the Eagles with one option — pull Clark down from behind. The junior elected to take the spot kick himself, stepped up and buried it, giving the Devils their third victory in four games and putting them on the precipice of the playoffs. “It was the best game we played this season,” Park said. “I thought that Angel did a good job setting up two goals, and Conner nearly scored a hat trick.” If DHS plays this well, could it possibly be the first team to take a win off of its biggest rivals? “It will be interesting because we destroyed Cosumnes Oaks and Cosumnes Oaks tied Jesuit,” Park said. “So you never know.” — Reach Evan Ream at eream@davis enterprise.net or follow him on Twitter @EvanReam.
But several other 2019 Masters participants return, such as juniors Aaron Turner, Tristen Wollrich, Ethan Horowitz, and sophomores Vance Tangren and James Davis. On the girls side, junior Emma Bordios is back to form a young, but veteran, lineup. “The postseason is gonna be awesome,” Wollrich said. “We’re ramping up the intensity and working really hard in the room everyday to put ourselves to the test and see how good we really are. We’ve been grinding in the room all season, and now, we finally get to see it payoff.” Added Adrienna Turner, “As a
team we have improved a lot from last year. There is a lot more work to be done but as postseason arrives we are excited to see how far we will make it in the state. “ Concluded junior Ethan Rosendale: “I’m excited for the start of the postseason. After a successful season where we placed third in the league as a team, the postseason moves into all individual trials where I can truly see where in the state I rank. “My goal for this year is to push myself to my limit and advance as far as I can, because the farther I make it, the tougher my opponents.”
DEVIL GIRLS: Improved second half not enough From Page B8 “I thought we handled the pressure much better in the second half, but when it came down to it, Sheldon hit some big-time shots,” said DHS head coach Heather Highshoe. The Blue Crew started off on the right foot, as Surina Beal drained a corner 3-pointer on the first possession of the game. But Davis, which committed 29 turnovers on the night, allowed 19 second-half points by the Huskies, and found itself playing from behind. In the second half, DHS switched to a full-court press and zone defense in the half-court. Lily Hessl swiped five steals and Eisenman nabbed three of her own as the Devil defense held the Sheldon to 8 points in the third quarter. “Our second half was much better, we were more aggressive in terms of attacking,” Highshoe told The Enterprise. “The defense was working, we were able to convert off of either our steals or their misses.” The Huskies (14-10 overall, 4-4 league) held a half-game lead over DHS in the league standings coming into the match. The locals drop to 13-11 overall and 3-6 in the Delta, and now will be hard pressed to snag a spot in the Sac-Joaquin Section playoffs. The Delta gets four automatic bids to the
“I wanted to let (the girls) know that it’s not out of reach.” Heather Highshoe DHS girls basketball coach section tournament, but Davis may still hold out hope. Last year, the CIF selected five teams from the Delta (including fifthplace St. Francis, which went 5-7). “We did put a lot of stress on tonight’s game,” said head coach Heather Highshoe. “But I wanted to let (the girls) know that it’s not out of reach if we can do what we need to do, game by game, we might be able to put ourselves in the position to get a bid.” Davis visits Franklin on Friday at 7 p.m. The Wildcats (21-4, 9-0) are the No. 2-ranked team in the section. On Monday, the Devils host No. 1 McClatchy (22-2, 9-1) in a nonleague bout. Notes: Surina Beal sustained a bloody nose in a mad scramble for the ball to start the fourth quarter, but came back and drilled a 3-pointer as the locals put up one last rally late in the fourth. ... Hessl finished with 6 points, while Caitlin McMillan and Mara Bledsoe added 4 and 3, respectively. — Reach Lev Farris Goldenberg at levfg2000@gmail.com.
HAZE: DHS struggles at the line From Page B8 A common storyline this season, DHS again struggled at the line. The Devils knocked down just 8 of 17 free-throw attempts (47 percent). Davis trailed 40-22 at half and 59-29 entering the final quarter of play. Now Franklin awaits the Blue Crew after dropping a 67-63 overtime thriller to Jesuit on Wednesday. The Wildcats sport a 14-10 overall record and sit two wins above the Devils in league at 4-4.
Notes: Ryan Hakl scored 7 for the Blue Crew on Wednesday, while Joey Voss added 6. Sheldon’s Dontrell Hewlett netted 14 and Josiah Johnson had 13. Sheldon has not dropped a game to the Devils since joining the Delta League in 2014. ... In other circuit action, Elk Grove beat Cosumnes Oaks, 57-48. ... Davis’ JV squad lost, 79-60, while the Devil freshman beat Sheldon, 58-54. —Reach Owen Yancher at oyancher@ davisenterprise.net. Follow him via Twitter at @530athletics.

Sun Devils visit Blue Devils in UCD lacrosse opener BY OWEN YANCHER Enterprise staff writer Former Blue Devils will take on the Sun Devils on Saturday when the UC Davis women’s lacrosse team squares off against Arizona State in the Aggies home opener at UC Davis Health Stadium.

of winning it.” The defending MPSF Coach of the Year says there was still a lot to be proud of, however, as her unit — a record 14 of which BELENIS were awarded DHS graduate conference AllAcademic honors last season — comes off one of its best defensive efforts in program history. But Isidor’s big wheel has now left the station. Graduating last spring, twotime MPSF MVP Taylor Cuenin vacates a spot at midfield where she produced a team-high 48 goals in 2019. Her 112 forced turnovers across her four years in the starting lineup saw her close out her Aggie career 19 short of a school record. “So we’ve got shoes to fill,” Isidor adds. “Especially on attack. Taylor Cuenin and Shannon Cross started every game for us
for the past four years.” Along with Amanda Outcalt, who returns for her final season on attack, Cross served as catalyst for most AGNEW Former Devil everything the Aggies accomplished last spring. But UCD will have senior leadership spread across the field, with Belenis and Addie Dearden on defense, Maddie Meyers and Kate Graham at midfield and both Outcalt and Sorana Larson up front. “Anna Belenis is ridiculously good. She’s gotten better and better every time she steps on the field,” Isidor told The Enterprise. Then there’s Agnew, fresh off a record-breaking season at Davis High (168 goals and 155 assists), who’ll surely provide some sparks in the lineup along with Novato grad Mia Lawrence. Lawrence’s
Hornets won three-straight Marin County Athletic League and CIF North Coast Section titles her freshman through junior seasons. They’ll have their hands full early on as Davis begins the season with a gantlet featuring ASU, Cal, Stanford, Oregon and No. 21 Georgetown right out the gate. In conference, Fresno State returns all its firepower but one graduating senior, while SDSU won’t taper off either. The Aztecs’ all-MPSF netminder Katy Sharrets is back after setting a single-season program record with 167 saves. New Jersey native Taylor Mathieson will be back in goal for UCD, with former Oak Ridge High standout Ashley Laing waiting in the wings. While at ORHS, Laing made the Blue Devils’ blood boil, stopping 62 percent of the shots put her way across her four years in the Sacramento Valley Lacrosse Conference. “They really complement each other,” says Isidor, happy to have goalkeepers at the ready, following
some injury-riddled campaigns between the pipes. Isidor also points to Kendall Seifert, a sophomore who saw limited time last year, as an emerging threat: “She’s done a terrific job through our scrimmages,” coach says. “And there’s also Anna Hofgard and Kayley Stunz.” Two big road trips headline the Aggie schedule this year. The first, is an East Coast outing which features matches at Temple (March 22), Delaware State (March 24) and UMBC (March 25). April 9 and 10, UCD will visit the Wolverine State for back-to-back encounters with Central Michigan and Detroit. UCD last played Temple in 2016, losing badly, 17-4. The Aggies edged UMBC, 10-7, last March in Baltimore. “Cool to have the opportunity for our East Coast kids to go home and our West Coast kids get to travel out there,” adds Isidor, whose roster features nine non-Californians.

DHS soccer teams just need 1 Boys can reach postseason with a victory
Girls’ 6th Delta title in a row is a point away
BY EVAN REAM

The Davis High boys soccer team needs just one win in its remaining three games to extend its streak of qualifying for the playoffs in every year of the program’s history. And though the playoff format is more forgiving than it has been in years past, the quality of the Delta League is such that just four points separate third-place Davis from sixth-place Cosumnes Oaks. The top five Delta teams advance to the playoffs. That run to the postseason starts tonight with the toughest opponent for the Devils: firstplace Jesuit — DHS’s biggest rival, which is 16-1-1 overall and 8-0-1 in league play. As if the Marauders needed extra incentive, they haven’t yet clinched the league title and need all three points to keep space between them and secondplace Franklin. DHS has three games left on the schedule: Jesuit (tonight), Sheldon (Monday) and Cosumnes Oaks (Wednesday).
One point. That’s all that stands between the Davis High girls soccer team and a sixth straight Delta League title. Well, a point, and the Devils’ biggest rival ... DHS hosts St. Francis today at 5 p.m. in its return to Brown Stadium and its refurbished turf surface. The second-place Troubadours are the only team that can stop the hosts from winning yet another title. “We were out there this week for the first time,” Stone said of the new turf. “The St. Francis game has just been such a rivalry, it’s super fun for the kids. It’s a later game on (tonight), so they’ll get to play in front of their peers. “It’s easy for them to get pumped up for that kind of a game. I thought (Wednesday’s) game was going to be tough because everyone’s looking forward to the St. Francis game, so I’m really happy about (the result).” The reason St. Francis sits in second place is because of what happened Wednesday, when then second-place Pleasant Grove hosted Davis and watched as its guest left with a 3-1 win. After defeating the Eagles 4-0 at Playfields Park earlier in the season, this week’s match proved to be much tougher for the 9-0-3 Devils. The only difference at halftime: a cheeky left-footed goal from reigning Davis Enterprise and Greiner Heating and Air Athlete of the Week Franny Bolivar. “At that point in the game, I would say that it was pretty even,” Stone told The Enterprise. “I think they’re a good team, and like the way they play, so we made some adjustments that helped us gain some better possession.” But in the second half, junior Summer Baron scored with a rocket into the upper corner of the goal to make it 2-0, only for PGHS to hit the back of the net on a free kick to bring the game within a solitary score. At that point, senior captain Lily Byrne just wanted it more than everyone on the other side as she high-pressured every single Pleasant Grove defender who came anywhere near the ball. Late in the game, an Eagles defender tried to clear the ball but could only hit the torso of Byrne. Bryne, surrounded by a maze of Eagles, corralled the misdirected clearance and slotted it in for the 3-1 advantage. “I wouldn’t say this season has been easy, a lot of these have been tough games, so I have to commend everyone on their performances,” Stone concluded. Note: In Wednesday’s paper, the Enterprise incorrectly published that a victory over Pleasant Grove would secure a conference crown for the Devils. The paper regrets the error.

Davis High’s Conner Clark (16) controls the ball against Pleasant Grove in Wednesday’s game on the new turf of Brown Stadium. The junior scored both goals in the Blue Devils 2-0 win. “If you look at the standings right now, it’s very, very tight,” said Blue Devil head coach Alex Park. “We still have to try to beat Jesuit, and we still have to play Sheldon, who we tied.”
But after losing to Franklin, the Devils moved into sole position of third place, thanks to a 2-0 victory over Pleasant Grove on Wednesday in the first game back at the newly renovated
Brown Stadium. The win improves the locals to 9-4-2 on the season and 4-3-2 in league play.

Blue Crew cagers come up short Loss to Huskies casts haze over boys’ playoffs
Devil girls run out of time, fall at home

ELK GROVE — If there’d have been a betting line for Wednesday’s Davis High boys basketball game against Sheldon, the Huskies would’ve likely been favored by the maximum margin. Ranked No. 5 in the Golden State and first in the Sac-Joaquin Section, there was no stopping the high-flying hoopsters from Elk Grove. Even with Arizona Statecommit Marcus Bagley sidelined by a lingering ankle injury, Sheldon cleaned the glass with ease and ran the 10th-ranked Blue Devils straight into the ground, 85-45. It was the Huskies’ second win by 40 or more in less than 10 days. They flattened a shellshocked Elk Grove, 81-35, last Friday. “Sheldon is a special team,” Devil head coach Dan Gonzalez said after absorbing a seventh loss in nine Delta League games. “We certainly can’t measure what we have against them, since they’re doing this to everybody.” Husky Josh Williams closed the night out with a team-high 15 points, while Cody Taylor led
Oh, they could almost taste it.
“There were moments where I thought our defense looked pretty good,” Gonzalez added. “We just couldn’t make shots early on.” In fact, Davis missed its first seven perimeter shots as the Huskies skyrocketed ahead. The Devils first 15 points all came off 3-point field goals. “We certainly always want to put up our threes,” Gonzalez went on, “but it sure seems like we’re missing a lot of pointblank shots.”
Davis High girls basketball’s comeback attempt fell short, yet again, in Wednesday night’s 61-50 loss to Sheldon at The Cage. Skylar Schouten muscled her way to a team-high 15 points while shooting 7 of 9 from the charity stripe. Emme Eisenman — after missing most of Monday’s 57-38 loss to Elk Grove — returned to action with 12 gritty points, 10 after the break as the Devils roared back. Trailing by 14 at intermission, Davis fashioned a second-half rally that found it down by 6 with less than three minutes to play against Sheldon. But Alina Higgins and Lexi Hufana — who led the Huskies with 15 — both hit 3-pointers as Sheldon cemented its hold on fourth place in the Delta League.

Blue Devil Collin Yee, right, battles Sheldon’s Xavion Brown for the ball in Wednesday’s 81-45 loss to the Huskies. DHS with 12. It marked Davis’ second consecutive game without a player tallying as many as 15, and was the Devils’ fourth straight setback. At 13-9 overall, Davis fans are shaking their heads at the team’s recent struggles following an uplifting 11-0 start to the season. Then assumed to be a for-sure postseason participant, the Devils’ playoff hopes are now uncertain with just two league contests remaining. Meanwhile, at 20-4 and 7-1, the Huskies can sleep soundly, all but locked in as the Delta’s top postseason seed.
Kobe has me reflecting, refueling D
avis! What’s up? Even two weeks later, we’re still dealing with the horrible loss of Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gigi. Rest in peace to all the people involved in that horrific helicopter crash. Anyone who knows me recalls that Kobe was my favorite basketball player ever. I hope you tell your loved ones how much they mean to you today. And with that being said, today I’m still in my feelings ... Not gonna lie, I was suppose to write this a few days ago. But Kobe’s death has caused a lot to be on my mind. This time with you is going to be a little different. I want to be as authentic as possible. You guys normally hear all the good things that are going
on. But today, I want y’all to understand that not everything is always peachy and roses. And that’s OK ... Today, I want to talk about adversity. I know this is probably a random topic, but I feel like someone needs to hear this. Everyone deals with it and handles it in their own way. Playing professional basketball has been rewarding and challenging in Europe. I remain strong and put one foot in front of the other. Every season I’ve dealt with personal ups and downs and the pressures. All these different anxieties takes a toll. I know I’m not the only one ... and you certainly don’t have to be a professional athlete to understand what I’m saying.
When you feel like you want to give up. From me to you: keep moving forward. Push that nagging lil’ voice out of your head. Fight back and don’t let it win. You have to understand there is always going to be doubt. It’s your choice whether you’re going give in to it or conquer it. I’m writing this in a way for you to feel me. My thoughts are for everyone who’s going through something, suffering in silence, for someone who is working hard but still waiting for that opportunity. This one is for someone whose praying for a loved one to make it over the hump. This is for when you have nothing left.
E
veryday we are met with challenges. To be honest, I felt the last couple of games here haven’t been my best. I’m extremely happy that we’ve won those games, but I know I can play at a higher level. I know myself and know I can play with the best, so I hold myself to a high standard. Because of that, I’ve been putting a lot of
pressure on myself, which has been the hardest thing with which to deal. I don’t know why I put so much pressure on myself. Probably just me wanting to be great. How many of y’all can relate? I know I’m not the only one who struggles pushing hard. (Sometimes too hard?) It’s also tough to be alone in a foreign country. It’s hard being thousands of miles away from home; missing family and friends; missing love ones birthday’s. On Jan. 29, my grandpa James Denny just celebrated his 80th birthday. I could only make a video to show my presence. It’s tough you know.
