By JOHN JENSEN The Grundy Register GRUNDY CENTER — Grundy Center High School drama students present their 2013 musical this weekend, former Broadway musical “Guys and Dolls.” Show times are Friday at 7 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m. Director Emily Boquet said both she and Assistant Director Amalie Guldenpfennig had been part of this show elsewhere and this year seemed like a good year to do it in Grundy Center. “I knew I had a good group of guys that could pull off the group of gamblers and I knew we had a good group of female dancers,” she said. “And we hadn’t done a classic for a few years.” The show is set in New York City, where Nathan Detroit (played by Seth Van Wert) maintains New York’s oldest craps game, floating from location to location to avoid the ever-present interest of Lt. Brannigan (Kaleb Neher). Van Wert is a veteran of the GCHS stage, having played the Cowardly Lion in “The Wizard of Oz” two years ago and Emmett in “Legally Blonde” last year. “Seth has a lot of experience on stage,” Boquet said. “He always plays a character well and gives it a lot of character.” Seeking a location for his crap game, Nathan has found the Biltmore Garage as a spot, though there’s one problem — he needs $1,000 to use it. To raise the money, he bets high roller Sky Masterson (Aaron Beck Brunk) that he won’t be able to talk local Mission leader Sarah Brown into going on a date with him. In the meantime, Nathan’s girlfriend Adelaide (Peyton Ralston) wants nothing more than to marry him ... after he stops gambling. “Peyton’s been on stage, but this is her biggest role,” Boquet said. “She has a lot of singing experience — a great voice — and can pull off her character well. She’s doing a great job.” Other key characters include gamblers Nicely Nicely Johnson (Jacob Waltersdorf), Benny Southstreet (Jack Beck Brunk), Big Jule (Brock Rohler) and Harry the Horse (Doug Kirchman), Arvide Abernathy (Abby Harberts) and Lt. Brannigan of the local police department (Kaleb Neher). All told, more than 30 students will be on stage during the production. Boquet said rehearsals have gone well. “It’s just a matter of getting it together to see how good it can get,” she said. “There are good scenes, good dancing, lots of funny parts. I think it could come together to be a really great show.”

A Recent Trip
I have mentioned in previous news columns that I get a lot of thinking time while deer hunting in the treestand. Well, I have not been in the treestand yet (that will change with the first part of November here now), so my thinking time has had to come from other sources. That can happen on road trips. Recently I took a ride down memory lane. But I didn’t venture out on a busy highway or even a dusty country road. This trip was taken without cranking up my car. The reason for this is simple: This cherished trek never extended beyond the confines of my yard. You see, this trip took place while seated on my riding mower - the next best thinking place for me it seems. It was during what I hope was my last mowing of the season but I might have one more leaf mulching trip. During this warm October afternoon, I found my mind flooded with the sights and sounds of a treasure trove of memorable events that have taken place right in my yard. For three decades, my wife BJ and I have been working to make our yard more beautiful and wildlife friendly. So naturally, we have enjoyed the sights and sounds of deer, raccoons, squirrels, pheasants, and bluebirds to name just a few of the animals that came to mind as I would mow past the trees and shrubs around the perimeter of our acre. As I rolled past the backyard bird

feeders, I remembered the many species of birds feeding there on cold winter mornings. Particularly the times when the goldfinches were so numerous that they had to take numbers and perch in the adjacent flowers stalks and deck furniture waiting for their turns to use the overburdened feeders. The oriole feeder is empty now but I thought about how many hours of enjoyment it brought just this spring as the hungry pair quickly devoured the orange halves we would place there sometimes twice a day. As I circled the backyard pond, memories of singing toads came to mind and how my daughter, Shannon, would do a perfect imitation of the trill to which she would promptly be joined by several of the real thing. My mind also wandered back to the time spent years ago when, together with my sons, Seth & Sean, we dug the holes and hauled the rocks that would eventually become the ponds and connecting stream we enjoy today. The backyard pond received more attention when Sean was tending it. And then, I thought ahead to the new pond that will surely be constructed in Sean’s own yard as soon as my grandson is old enough to help him. And then I’ll wager his riding lawnmower times will become memory trips, too.

God Bless America
By SUE ECKHOFF Grundy County Heritage Museum Oops – we really can’t say that anymore without being “politically incorrect” in someone’s opinion! The Grundy County Museum recently received a stack of old newspapers. While going through them, I found a press comment from the Grundy Register, October 3, 1940 edition, originally taken from the Storm Lake Pilot Tribune. “Everywhere in this beloved land you hear them singing “God Bless America”. It was written by Irving Berlin, who composed it in 1918 to be used in an amateur show in an army camp. The song was never used, and Berlin put it away where it slumbered peacefully in a trunk until Kate Smith requested that Berlin write her a song appropriate for her to sing on Armistice Day. “God Bless America” was dug out, and Kate sang it on November 11, 1938. It caught on immediately, and we all know the rest of the story, including the fact that God Bless America became Kate Smith’s signature song. It later became the official campaign song for Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1940. It proved to be the most popular song of any ever written by Irving Berlin. Experts at the time said it wasn’t a great song from a technical stand point, but it gave men, women and children a chance to express their love for the great country they lived in. Irving Berlin himself said it wasn’t a patriotic song, but rather “an expression of gratitude for what this country has cone for its citizens and what home really means.” Many remember the spontaneous singing of God Bless America on the steps of the Capitol Building in Washington DC on the evening of September 11, 2001 following the terrorist attacks, and on July 11, 2011, Kate Smith’s version of the song was played as NASA’s final wake up call for the space shuttle Atlantis, ending the 30 year shuttle program. “Perhaps it isn’t strictly speaking a patriotic song, yet in these days, with the world in a frenzy, we defy any true American to sing “God Bless America” without feeling a thrill of sentiment and love for this nation” (Storm Lake Pilot Tribune).

A Recent Trip
Local woman share’s story of teenage daughter’s fight with Type 1 Diabetes The following story was submitted by Kristi Salo about her daughter, Megan’s, battle with a disease that is reaching epidemic proportions among Americans.
By KRISTI SALO Special to The Grundy Register My daughter Megan is a senior at Grundy Center High School. She is on the dance team, cheer squad, GC Jazz, musical theatre and she is vicepresident of her class. She loves to hang out with her friends, shop, read, write and cuddle with her dog, GiGi. She was just diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes and her life will never be the same. A few months ago Megan started sporadically feeling ill and she was having a difficult time dragging herself out of bed for school. I chalked it up to her busy and demanding school/sports/ social life. But when I looked up her symptoms online, I was sure she had Celiac disease so I made an appointment at our family doctor for Megan to be tested. On the day before her appointment, Megan came home from school and relayed to me how thirsty she had been that day and that no amount of water seemed to quench that thirst. My heart sank. This symptom I knew to be an indication of diabetes. I had seen this and heard of it so many times since my brother’s diagnosis of Juvenile Diabetes (now referred to as Type 1 Diabetes or T1D) when he was five years old. I had always heard that diabetes could run in families, but I had also heard that it skips a generation so I never gave much thought to my children getting it. I always figured that it would skip Megan’s generation and would most likely affect my brother’s children since it was on “his side.” But this generation skipping myth was debunked with my dad’s diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes years ago. His mother (my grandmother) also had Type 2 diabetes. For those of you keeping track, my family is in our fourth consecutive generation of this disease! At the doctor’s office that Thursday afternoon, I asked them to check first for diabetes “just to rule it out.” The nurse pricked her finger and squeezed out a tiny drop of blood. She tested on the glucose meter and the result came back as “high” with no number indicating actual levels of sugar in the blood. She tested again with the doctor present but achieved the same result. We were sent immediately to the lab for a blood draw then sent back to the office to wait ... Before we went to the lab, we were warned that if Megan’s blood test came back confirming diabetes, she would immediately have to be admitted to an ER equipped to treat high blood sugar and diabetics. After a 30-minute wait, our doctor came out and greeted us with these words: “Do you want to go to Allen (Hospital) or to Covenant?” “It’s diabetes?” I asked. “Oh, yes!” she said, “Her blood glucose is 628!” “What’s normal?” I asked. “70 – 120.” “Whoa ...” Megan and I exhaled at the same time. After four hours in the Covenant ER, hooked up to an IV and given insulin, her blood sugar dropped significantly and to the point where she could be transferred to University of Iowa Hospital in Iowa City. The next couple days spent there were a blur of information for Megan, her dad, and me: of blood testing, insulin injecting, carb counting, urine testing. We did a lot of praying and received a lot of prayers from family and friends which were so appreciated and so needed to get us on to the next step in Megan’s care: Going Home. On Saturday she was discharged and we headed home to begin this new adventure without the “safety” and guidance of the doctors and nurses on hand and present at all times. According to a Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) fact sheet, “T1D is an autoimmune disease in which a person’s pancreas stops producing insulin, a hormone that enables people to get energy from food. While its causes are not yet entirely understood, scientists believe that both genetic factors and environmental triggers are involved. Its onset has nothing to do with diet or lifestyle. There is nothing you can do to prevent T1D, and –at present- nothing you can do to get rid of it.” Megan has caught on so quickly to her new life — what we now refer to as “our new normal” — and her dad and I are so proud of how she has taken on diabetes with grace, determination and perseverance. What is it like to live with T1D? It is a challenge! Megan must check her blood glucose (BG) level by pricking her own finger at least four times a day: Once before each meal, once before bed and any time in between when she feels “low”. She must plan her meals carefully and count the grams of carbohydrates she is going to consume at that meal and divide

it by a number set by her doctor to determine her insulin dose. She must inject her own insulin either into her arm, thigh, stomach or buttocks. Within 15 minutes she must eat her allotted food – no more and no less- and eat it within 30 minutes of her shot. She must record her BG levels, insulin doses and carbohydrates consumed on a daily basis to report to her doctor. Diabetes testing and its treatment has changed a lot since my brother was diagnosed in 1971. My mom recalls how they had to test Jeff’s urine every morning, before every meal and before bedtime. “The colors on the test strip indicated if his blood sugar was high or low.,” she said. “We didn’t have glucose monitors then, so we never knew how high or how low he was running. Because of this, there were three or four times that he went into convulsions because of his sugar being extremely low. He always had to eat at the same time every day and every meal had to have a set amount of carbs, protein and fat. Even when he was sick, he still had to consume the same amount of calories, so we substituted sugar pop and regular Jello for his meals.” November is Diabetes Awareness Month and Nov. 14 is World Diabetes Day. And while research is ongoing, there still is no cure for diabetes. I invite you to visit the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation website at www.jdrf.org for more information, including early warning signs and facts and myths of diabetes. We caught Megan’s diabetes early and doctors estimate that 30-40 percent of her pancreas is still working. That percentage will go down and, as it does, her insulin doses will have to go up. There is a Research tab at jdf.org with exciting news about the future of diabetes management…including trials of an “artificial pancreas”! There is also a link on the website for ways to donate toward finding a cure! Your contribution is tax-deductible and would be so appreciated! Another way to donate is by sponsoring a walker in the Walk to Cure Diabetes campaign. Megan is already recruiting walkers for TEAM MEGS and our walk will take place in Des Moines on May 10, 2014. Sponsor a walker or join our team and raise your own sponsored dollars while raising awareness! Please call me with any questions at 319-824-6131. I cannot even imagine what our family would look like today, if not for our faith. I have spent hours — even days — in uncontrollable sobbing but I have felt the prayers from those close to me and I have found a new strength from God, the source of true strength and true peace. Our family will continue to lean on him and trust in him in the days, weeks and years to come! Megan will be attending Iowa State University next fall and I, as her mother, will need all the peace I can get while she is away from home!! I know that Megan is not the only person in this community living with T1D, and there are many others who are living with Type 2 Diabetes as well. Please show your support for these individuals by honoring Nov. 14 with a “BLUE OUT.” Wear Blue (the Awareness color for Diabetes) to raise awareness and hope for the management and eventual cure for Diabetes!

I have mentioned in previous news columns that I get a lot of thinking time while deer hunting in the treestand. Well, I have not been in the treestand yet (that will change with the first part of November here now), so my thinking time has had to come from other sources. That can happen on road trips. Recently I took a ride down memory lane. But I didn’t venture out on a busy highway or even a dusty country road. This trip was taken without cranking up my car. The reason for this is simple: This cherished trek never extended beyond the confines of my yard. You see, this trip took place while seated on my riding mower - the next best thinking place for me it seems. It was during what I hope was my last mowing of the season but I might have one more leaf mulching trip. During this warm October afternoon, I found my mind flooded with the sights and sounds of a treasure trove of memorable events that have taken place right in my yard. For three decades, my wife BJ and I have been working to make our yard more beautiful and wildlife friendly. So naturally, we have enjoyed the sights and sounds of deer, raccoons, squirrels, pheasants, and bluebirds to name just a few of the animals that came to mind as I would mow past the trees and shrubs around the perimeter of our acre. As I rolled past the backyard bird feeders, I remembered the many species of birds feeding there on cold winter mornings. Particularly the times when the goldfinches were so numerous that they had to take numbers and perch in the adjacent flowers stalks and deck furniture waiting for their turns to use the overburdened feeders. The oriole feeder is empty now but I thought about how many hours of enjoyment it brought just this spring as the hungry pair quickly devoured the orange halves we would place there sometimes twice a day. As I circled the backyard pond, memories of singing toads came to mind and how my daughter, Shannon, would do a perfect imitation of the trill to which she would promptly be joined by several of the real thing. My mind also wandered back to the time spent years ago when, together with my sons, Seth & Sean, we dug the holes and hauled the rocks that would eventually become the ponds and connecting stream we enjoy today. The backyard pond received more attention when Sean was tending it. And then, I thought ahead to the new pond that will surely be constructed in Sean’s own yard as soon as my grandson is old enough to help him. And then I’ll wager his riding lawnmower times will become memory trips, too.

Mom’s Morning Out to see changes The Mom’s Morning Out groups at the First Presbyterian Churches in Grundy Center and Reinbeck will be seeing upcoming changes. Coordinator Sheryl Campbell said the group will have a simple lunch gathering in November. “We are wondering if young women who are not moms would like to join us too,” Campbell said. “We might even want to change our name!” All are invited to a simple faithbased gathering at 11 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 13 at the First Presbyterian Church, 405 Broad Street in Reinbeck, to share lunch and discussion. Children not in school are invited too. There will be a safe childcare environment, some videos if interested, and they also get lunch. The women will look together at a book, Living Above Worry and Stress. “We got a great deal from the publisher, so the books are available for a donation of any amount,” Camp-
bell said. “I’m bringing the main lunch food, and those who wish to can bring something to pass.” There opportunities for sharing, and to pray for one another and community/world concerns. Kids and moms together can work on a crafty harvest garland for autumn home decorating (optional). Campbell is a Parish Associate at First Presbyterian Churches in Reinbeck and Grundy Center. Over the past several years she also has served a United Methodist church in Waterloo and United Church of Christ in Traer. Although the group is hosted at First Presbyterian Church in Reinbeck, it is considered at least countywide and non-denominational; all are welcome from any church or no church. There were five at the last meeting. Future gathering dates and locations will be determined by those who come Nov. 13 or call in by then. For additional information, please contact Campbell at 319-2319161 or rev.sherylc@gmail.com.

High school musical Back To the 80’s Nov. 9-10 Come and join the AGWSR High School kids, November 9-10, as they go on a journey back to the 80’s! Back To The 80’s tells the story of the then 17-year old Corey, who becomes madly in love with his next-door neighbor, Tiffany Houston, one of the most popular girls at school. However, she barely notices this, as she is too busy drooling over Michael Feldman, the hottest guy around. Michael and his friends are athletic and good-looking — the kind of guys that Corey and his two best friends dream of being. However, while they may not be the coolest guys in school, they are still one up on Feargal McFerrin III, whose best friend is his computer, and who has the “crazy” belief that one day CD’s will replace cassette tapes. So pull on your leg warmers and come
see Corey, Tiffany, and Michael sing your favorite hits of the 80’s! The Intro to Business class has taken over the duty of promoting the musical (as part of a class project). A fresh and different idea the class is trying is pre-selling tickets. We encourage all citizens to pre-buy their musical ticket, as they will then be qualified for a raffle prize, such as Iowa State football tickets (see AGWSR Fall Musical “Back To The 80’s” Facebook page for more details). Just a reminder that pre-sale tickets are still being sold at Ackley State Bank, Greenbelt Bank and Trust, Ackley Country Club, Kum & Go, and The Rock Stop in Steamboat Rock. Tickets for the dinner theatre are only available at the high school.
Help for parents with a Child who stutters is as close as your library Parents who notice their young child beginning to stutter should seek help right away; and help is available at most public libraries. In the past, experts incorrectly believed that paying attention to a child’s stuttering would exacerbate the situation. It was even feared that offering the child therapy “would arouse the child’s awareness and cause more stuttering,” said Ehud Yairi, speech-language pathologist and researcher at the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana and TelAviv University. However, research by Yairi published in the Journal of Speech, Language and Hearing Research reveals that all children may be aware of the differences between fluent speech and stuttering as early as age three, and that they often display a social preference for fluent-speaking children by the time they are four years old. “These findings should provide support to the important idea that we should shift from a ‘hands-off’ approach to more direct therapy tech-
niques, and even more so with schoolage children” added Barry Guitar, Ph.D., of University of Vermont. The book, If Your Child Stutters: A Guide for Parents, also available in Spanish, answers questions that parents and teachers often have. Written by leading experts, it describes the difference between normal disfluencies and stuttering and gives tips for parents of ways to help their child immediately. Books and DVDs produced by the 65-year-old nonprofit Stuttering Foundation are available free to any public library. A library that will shelve them can contact the Foundation at 1-800-992-9392, e-mail info@ stutteringhelp.org, or visit www.stutteringhelp.org or www.tartarmudez. org. This book was offered to all the public libraries in your county. The Wellsburg Public Library received the free book and agreed to shelve it but cannot guarantee that it is currently on the shelf.
Gravity, Occult FOrces, and the Mystery OF spirit
The idea that Newton discovered gravity after being struck by a falling apple is doubtful. Newton had a lifelong interest in alchemy, magic, and occult forces, and his theory of gravity may have been inspired by the idea of occult forces, i.e., the idea that objects can have an effect on other objects without touching them. Gravity is essentially action at a distance. The earth doesn't have to touch the moon in order to exert a gravitational pull on it. This may seem obvious to us now, but there is still something deeply mysterious about how objects affect other objects without actually touching them. How does gravity or magnetism work, unless the space between objects is a kind of fluid (or ether) in which they are actually connected? Or, is space itself a kind of fluid rather than an empty vacuum? Minds are equally mysterious. Minds seem to be in contact with other minds, for instance when we sense what someone is going to say or how they feel. Perhaps the universe is, at bottom, more spirit than matter. And perhaps some are more in tune with the cosmic fluid, the spiritual ocean, as it were, in which all of us are swimming, whether we know it or not. – Christopher Simon

When the final kill attempt by Grandview Park fell out of bounds untouched, it set off a celebration that was deserving of the moment. “I think that fifth game it came down to who wanted it more,” Senior hitter Alexa Johnson said. “As a team, we had the bench fired up, we had the crowd fired up, it got us pumped up even more, so it was definitely exciting.” AGWSR (9-23) played Guthrie Center Wednesday for the right to play in the state tournament. Johnson had four of her 12 kills in the fifth and deciding game, including a key one that tied the match at 14 after the Defenders had match point prior to an AGWSR timeout. Johnson also led the Cougars with four blocks and was perfect on 22 serves. “We went into this game having no idea what they were like — we went and watched them their first round but apparently they didn’t play how they usually play,” Johnson said. “So we had absolutely no idea what to expect. But our mindset was, basically, ‘don’t focus on how not to lose, focus on how to win.’ “It’s kind of been our saying we’ve been having, I guess. If we play our best game, we can compete with anyone out there.” Entering the match, Grandview Park (28-11) had three hitters with more than 200 kills. But that didn’t matter to the Cougars, who were ready at every opportunity.
When it was all said and done, the Cougars combined for 126 digs against the Defender attack, including 44 by Olivia Ingledue and 26 by Madi Fryslie. “We were focusing on what we can control and not what they were doing on their side,” Johnson said. “We wanted to stay together and focused on our side of the floor. “We’ve been talking ourselves up the whole season and obviously our record doesn’t necessarily show anything special, but we decided that now is our time to prove it,” she said. “Every single one on the floor for us except one is a senior out there, so to us it’s kind of, ‘how do we want to leave here?’” But the Cougars have played a tougher Class 2A/3A conference and tournament schedule, which has only showed to their advantage this postseason. Seven of AGWSR’s losses have been to teams that were in the IGHSAU final rankings in a higher class. “Most of the schools in our conference are 2A or 3A,” Johnson said. “We’ve done pretty well with competing with them for the most part. There have been some notso-good games, but if you look at who these girls were playing compared to what who we were playing, we played tough schools in tournaments and even in our conference. “To be at the point we are at now, I think those games helped us because we have a better understanding of what we are going to see in the post-season.” Fryslie, who led AGWSR with 13 kills, put down her last one that gave her team match point. Danielle Henning tallied most of her seven kills early on before leaving to be treated by a trainer. She later returned to the court. This was the first five-set match the Cougars played all season. They were 2-1 in four-set matches they played. “Tonight was tough,” Johnson said. “I don’t think we’ve ever gone five games with anyone, so kind

AGWSR 3, NE Hamilton 0 By PATTI RUST The Grundy Register ACKLEY – AGWSR easily won their second round regional match against Northeast Hamilton, on Tuesday, Oct. 29, besting the
Trojans 25-5, 25-7, 25-8. “We had a two week break since our last regular season game,” AGWSR head coach Betsy Harms said. “I believe it was a great time for us to refocus and key in our fundamentals.” Madison Fryslie led the Cougar offense with 12 kills, and Danielle Henning and Taylor Steinfeldt added seven each. Henning and Kim Ellingson combined for 30 assists, Henning with 16 and Ellingson with 14. Ellingson, Fryslie, Alana Groninga, and Henning all had two ace serves. “We moved and communicated well all night,” she said. “I was very pleased with our level of intensity and execution.”
Oliva Ingledue led the defense with 18 digs and Frylie had eight. Groninga and Alexa Johnson had two blocks each at the net. “Our back row did a nice job of setting up our offense and our hitters converted,” Harms said. “We also did a nice job of serving aggressively.” 8

Cougars fall in low-scoring playoff opener By JOHN JENSEN The Grundy Register A CKLEY — Lawton-Bronson scored on a long pass play late in the first quarter and made that stand last Wednesday in a 7-0 victory over AGWSR in a Class A firstround playoff game. T he Eagles (7-3) played topranked West Lyon in a secondround playoff game Monday. AGWSR finished its best season in more than a decade with a 9-2 record. “You never can take their accomplishments away,” Cougar coach Skip Eckhardt said of his team. “Two years ago we were 1-8, but we were in a good district. These seniors bought into what we were doing — we started lifting that next Monday, we didn’t wait for a week or whatever. “About 80 percent of them have been working religiously since then ... in the summer ... getting in shape.,” he said. “We wanted to have a district title, get in the playoffs and hopefully win some games. We fell short of winning games but we got in, so we just have to make a step up and get better.” Wednesday’s game was a battle of strong defenses. The teams combined for just 465 yards, most of which came on the ground. The Cougar defense held LawtonBronson to just 260 yards of total offense, 66 of which came on the game’s lone scoring play, a pass from Austin Peters to Brandon Thompson with 1 minute, 25 seconds remaining in the first quarter. “One play. We got caught sleeping,” Eckhardt said. The Cougars allowed 181 yards on the ground, but limited L-B’s big plays. The Eagles entered the game averaging nearly 7 1/2 yards per rush but averaged less than 4 1/2 per carry Wednesday. Thompson paced L-B with 96 yards while Anteres Ashley added 86 yards. “They got yardage, but our boys
buckled down when they had to,” Eckhardt said. O ffensively the Cougars were shut out for the first time since their final game of the 2011 season despite moving the ball. They drove inside the Lawton-Bronson 30 yard line three times in the second half but were unable to capitalize. “We did a lot of different things tonight to try to get people spread out,” Eckhardt said. “We had them running all over the place, we just had to make some plays. We had opportunities that we just missed. Two inches here and there.” Clay Meinders paced the Cougars with 87 rushing yards while Brandon Johnson threw for 57 yards, 36 of which came on the team’s final drive. AGWSR’s best chance to score came midway through the third quarter after Lawton-Bronson’s punt returner muffed an attempt to field the ball. Levi Stockdale recovered the fumble at the 10-yard line, but four straight runs saw the Cougars stopped at the L-B 1. A nother promising drive saw AGWSR fumble the ball away at the Lawton-Bronson 26 with less than six minutes left in the game before the defense stepped up and forced a punt. Johnson completed three straight passes as the Cougars drove to the 14, where three consecutive pass attempts fell incomplete. “Close but no cigar,” Eckhardt said. “(Johnson) stepped up and made some plays, but at the end it wasn’t enough.” The Cougars broke through with their first winning season since 2005 last year and scored its first playoff berth since that same season this year. Though the team graduates 12 seniors, it will return its top rusher, passer and tackler next year. “We’ve got to get back to work like we did (the past two years),” Eckhardt said. “We’re just average go-to-work guys that have worked hard. They all go out for track, they

Wolverines claim spot in regional volleyball final; G-R season ends in second round By PATTI RUST Sports Correspondent HUDSON – The Dike-New Hartford Wolverines breezed through the second and third rounds of the Class 2A Region 6 volleyball bracket last week, defeating both GladbrookReinbeck and Hudson three sets to none to claim their place in the regional final. In the semi-final at Hudson on Friday, the Pirates challenged the No. 1 Wolverines in the first set, trading point for point and leading at one point 11-10. From there the Wolverines began to slowly pull away and eventually took the set 25-17. Dike-New Hartford controlled the second set, leading by a few points throughout, then again made a run in the latter half of the set, ending it at 25-15. The Wolverines dominated the third set, making an early 16-2 run before eventually taking the win 259. “The girls did a good job of staying focused,” Dike-New Hartford head coach Diane Harms said. “We made good adjustments with our serve and attack to find seams and gaps to attack.” Briana Weber led the Wolverine offense with 15 kills. Brooke Morgan added seven and Lizzy Blough and Ashley Dumler scored six kills apiece. Rachel Koop set up 30 assists and Sam Meyer led from the serving line with nine aces. Meyer
also led in digs with eight, and a trio of Wolverines, Blough, Weber, and Taylor Hedges, all put up seven. Dumler and Koop each had two blocks at the net. “Defensively we did a good job keeping the ball in play and our passers allowed Rachel to get us into our offense,” Harms said. “We stayed aggressive throughout the match.” The 41-1 Wolverines will face the 22-16 Denver Cyclones in the regional final at Clarksville at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 6.

DIKE – One team would inevitably see their season come to an end, while the other would advance to the regional semi-final, when Dike-New Hartford hosted neighboring Gladbrook-Reinbeck in round two of postseason play on Tuesday, Oct. 29. Though the Rebels pulled off some successful shots at times, they found they could not keep pace with
the Wolverines as Dike-New Hartford took the match in three straight sets, 25-10, 25-9, 25-8. Briana Weber pounded out 17 kills on offense and put up 10 digs on defense for the Wolverines. Brooke Morgan scored 10 kills and blocked eight Rebel attacks. Rachel Koop provided 31 assists and landed three aces serves. “We did a good job of serving tonight and setting up our block,” Wolverine head coach Diane Harms said. “It was a good start to the post season.” Jenny Schildroth led the Rebels with four kills and eight assists.

South Winneshiek rallies past Wolverines
By JOHN JENSEN The Grundy Register DIKE – During the regular season, South Winneshiek junior Jordan Rommes led his team to the playoffs as the top receiver in the state. Monday he led the Warriors to a playoff victory over Dike-New Hartford with his arm and legs. The versatile Rommes threw a game-changing 61-yard touchdown pass and ran for the go-ahead touchdown as South Winn rallied from a 17-6 halftime deficit to top the previously-undefeated Wolverines 36-17 in the second round of the Class 1A playoffs. “You’re going to get something different every week with him and we knew (the Wolverines) were going to do something different than what they’ve been doing all year,” South Winneshiek coach Jason Ohrt said. The Warriors (9-2) will face rival North Fayette Valley in a playoff quarterfinal Friday in West Union, bidding to become only the second team in school history to reach the playoff semifinals. The Tigerhawks won an earlier matchup between the teams, 44-34. Dike-New Hartford (10-1) built a 17-6 halftime lead by scoring on three straight first-half possessions. Byron Fritch capped a 16-play,74yard drive with a 29-yard field goal for the first points of the night, and Carson Parker broke a quarterback sneak for a 35-yard scoring run, capping an 85-yard drive that came less than three minutes after South Winn scored its only points of the first half on a 15-yard Ryan Hageman run. The Wolverines extended their lead to 17-6 with a 10-play, 87-yard drive capped by Gabe Eiklenborg’s 24-yard scoring catch less than two minutes before halftime. South Winneshiek began its comeback with a defensive stop that led to a short D-NH punt. On the first play from scrimmage, quarterback Logan Schweinfus handed off to Rommes and flung the ball downfield as the D-NH defense converged on him. Senior receiver Alex Shatek stumbled as he tracked the ball through the air but kept his balance well enough to run untouched into the end zone. Rommes then ran in the two-point conversion to close the Warrior gap to three, and the fun was only starting. “That’s a play we ran a few weeks ago up at North Fayette,” Ohrt said. “We needed to do something to get the kids going and we executed.” “They hit that halfback pass and, boy, the momentum switched and we could never get on the top side of it again,” Dike-New Hartford coach Don Betts said. “We were shooting ourselves in the foot that whole second half.” One possession later, the Warriors drove deep into Dike-New Hartford territory before fumbling
the ball away. They didn’t let their next chance slip away so easily, as Rommes took a direct snap from center in the wildcat formation, faked a handoff and ran 32 yards to give the Warriors their first lead since midway through the second quarter. Ohrt said his team never panicked, even after being outgained by more than 200 yards in the first half. “We told them to keep their composure,” he said. “We can score 40 points in a half like nothing. We told them, just, to execute, we made a couple of adjustments in the run game.” Dike-New Hartford, meanwhile, struggled while facing its first fourth-quarter deficit of the season. Quarterback Carson Parker, who had thrown just five interceptions on 139 pass attempts entering the game, saw South Winneshiek pick off back-to-back pass attempts to set up game-clinching scores. South Winneshiek senior defensive lineman Darrik Poshusta reached up and snatched Parker’s attempted screen pass at the line of scrimmage and returned it to the 15, setting up a six-yard Christian Kleve scoring run that extended the Warrior lead to double digits. Parker’s next pass attempt deflected off the hands of South Winn’s Treyton Jacobsen and into those of Rommes, who found the end zone 10 plays later at receiving end of a 15-yard Schweinfus pass. “They got that momentum and rode the emotion of that momentum,” Betts said. “Hats off to them. They’re a great team and they handed it to us tonight.” Dike-New Hartford lost despite out-gaining the Warriors 308-296. The Wolverines ran for 199 yards, including a game-high 109 from Cuvelier, while Parker threw for 109 yards and a touchdown. Ryan Hageman led South Winneshiek’s 188-yard rushing effort with 103 yards and a score while Kleve ran for 64 yards and Rommes had 44. Schweinfus, playing in place of the injured Garrett Bohach, threw for 47 yards and a touchdown. Monday’s loss ends the run of a Wolverine senior class that has gone 22-2 over the past two years, including back-to-back district titles and undefeated regular seasons. “It’s one of those things that I hope when they get some distance in between now and the end of the season that they look back at the season and careers that they’ve had,” Betts said. “It’s an outstanding group of seniors. They won a lot of football games here and did a lot of great things. It’s a group that we’re going to miss a lot.” South Winn D-NH

Sumner-Fredericksburg also contained D-NH’s rushing attack, holding the Wolverines to a season-low 116 yards on 35 carries. D-NH was effective throwing the ball, however, with quarterback Carson Parker completing 17-of-28 passes for 196 yards and a touchdown. Gabe Eiklenborg hauled in seven Parker passes for 83 yards and a score. D-NH took a 10-0 halftime lead after Parker burrowed into the end zone for a first-quarter touchdown and Byron Fritch kicked a careerbest 46-yard field goal. D-NH added an insurance touchdown in the third quarter as Eiklenborg caught a 17-yard scoring pass from Parker and Fritch threw a twopoint conversion pass to Zach Nicholson. Sumner-Fredericksburg finishes 6-4, with a pair of losses to the Wolverines for the second straight season.

G-R outlasts Turkey Valley with late scoring surge By ROB MAHARRY Mid-America Publishing GLADBROOK- Gladbrook-Reinbeck and Turkey Valley play similar styles of football. Both teams are extremely physical and rely on big, barreling running backs to carry the offensive load, and Rebel star Chase Clark proved to be the difference with a pair of late touchdowns that led G-R to a 34-22 victory. “It’s hard to get used to (playing a team with such a similar style), but once we did, we found a groove and took it to them,” Clark said. The game began with a frenzy of scoring for both teams. Eric Stoakes returned the ball close to his own 40-yard line to set the Rebels up in good field position, and just a few plays later Dustin Dinsdale took a wedge handoff up the middle, broke it outside and scored a 53-yard touchdown to put G-R ahead 7-0. Turkey Valley’s Eric Buchendahl responded in a big way on the ensuing kickoff by returning it all the way down to the Rebel 20-yard line. Riley Meirick pounded the ball in from six yards out, and a two-point conversion made the score 8-7 with 9:51 still remaining in the first quarter. Clark then made a rare mistake and coughed up the football, and the Trojans pounced on the opportunity. After his offense took over in Rebel territory, running back Justin Kime picked up an important 16-yard gain to put Turkey Valley in the red zone, and big senior Luke Kuennen capped the drive with an eight-yard touchdown run. The conversion attempt failed, and the Trojans took a 14-7 lead. G-R quarterback Camden Kickbush made one of his two completions in the game on the ensuing drive, an eight-yarder to Josh Cooley that moved the offense near midfield. As the first quarter came close to its end, Kickbush scrambled to the left on a passing play and dove across the pile-on for a 17-yard score. A crucial blocked extra point, however, prevented the Rebels from tying the score, and the Trojans led 14-13 after one. The teams traded jabs in the second quarter, but neither could muster any points. Kuennen broke runs of 13 and 20 during the frame, and both offenses started drives deep in their own territory after coffin punts. G-R had the last chance to score in the half but elected to run the clock down rather than attempt to put together a long drive in a short amount of time, and Turkey Valley still led 14-13 at halftime. In the third quarter, the Trojans took possession, but they were stuffed on a third and two and gave the ball back to the Rebels. Clark broke one of his first big runs of the night, a 16 yarder, but Kickbush threw a red zone interception to Blake Busta that swung the momentum back in the direction of Turkey Valley. Ryan Busta then hit Kyle Reicks on a big 15-yard completion, but an attempted trick play with Buchendahl, a running back, throwing ended in disaster when G-R’s Phillip Zimmerman intercepted his pass and returned it all the way down to the Trojan 13-yard line. On a fourth and one from the five-yard line, Clark fought his way through
the middle for his first touchdown of the day, and the Rebels took a 20-14 lead entering the fourth quarter. “(The interception) was a huge momentum swing,” G-R Coach John Olson said. After the Rebels regained possession, Clark burst for a pair of 11yard runs before punching his ticket to the end zone from 10 yards out early in the fourth. G-R took a 27-14 lead and appeared to be in control, but a hungry Trojan team refused to quit. Busta found Buchendahl on a 17-yard touchdown connection and again on the two-point conversion to narrow the lead to 27-22 with 6:13 remaining in the contest. Despite his passing struggles, Kickbush found his moxie at just the right time. On a fourth and six from the Turkey Valley 41-yard line, the junior ran a bootleg to the left and managed just enough yards to get the first down. The Rebels were then facing a third and 13 from the 36 when Kickbush took off down the right side of the field and picked up 23 yards. The quarterback culminated the long drive with a three-yard touchdown sneak with 1:15 to go that gave his team a 34-22 lead and sealed the victory. “We knew we were going to get better as the game went along,” he said. Kickbush completed just two of his 11 passing attempts for 18 yards and two interceptions, but he scored two touchdowns on the ground and gained 51 yards on eight attempts. Busta completed five of eight passes for 71 yards, a touchdown and an interception. Clark had a rather pedestrian game by the standard he set this year but still managed 120 yards on 27 rushes and two touchdowns. He eclipsed 2,000 yards for the season and still leads the Class A rushing race by almost 300 yards. Kuennen anchored the Trojan rushing attack in his final high school game with 20 rushes for 88 yards and a touchdown. The 245-pound senior finished the season with 1100 yards and 19 touchdowns. Dustin Dinsdale ran the ball nine times for 96 yards and a touchdown for the Rebels. Meirick carried eight times for 23 yards and a touchdown for Turkey Valley, and Buchendahl caught two passes for 40 yards and a score. Bryce Ehlers led the G-R defense with 16 total tackles, and Colton Dinsdale added 13 more. Kuennen and Levi Klimesh, with 11 and 10 total tackles, respectively, led the Trojans. “Our linebackers played so much better in the second half,” Olson said. The Rebels (9-2, 6-0 district) have advanced to the Class A state quarterfinals with the win, where they will host the undefeated defending state champions from Wapsie Valley. Turkey Valley ended its season at 7-4 overall and 6-1 in district play. “If (Wapsie Valley) comes in here Friday night and they’re better than us, we’ll say ‘hey, congratulations guys,’” Olson said. “If we play really good, take care of our business and we get to go to the dome, that’s pretty sweet too.” G-R Turkey Valley

Gladbrook-Reinbeck 35 Postville 0 GLADBROOK- Gladbrook-Reinbeck running back Chase Clark’s 181 yards and three rushing touchdowns propelled his team to an easy 35-0 win over Postville in its postseason opener, and the Rebels advanced to the second round of the Class A playoffs. “He’s a guy that’s going to get four yards on you, six yards on you, eight yards and then boom, 20,” Gladbrook-Reinbeck Coach John Olson said. Halfway through the first quarter, Clark, Class A’s leading rusher, exploded for a 13-yard touchdown, and he would score on runs of three and 27 yards later in the game. In the second quarter, quarterback Camden Kickbush hit Colton Dinsdale for an 11-yard touchdown pass in the corner of the end zone to put the Rebels up 14-0. Eric Stokes scored on a broken option play that he ran back across the field for 38 yards in the fourth quarter to provide his team with an insurance touchdown. The Rebel defense held the Pirates in check throughout the night and recovered a pair of fumbles. Postville (4-6) managed less than 200 yards of total offense in the contest. G-R (82, 6-0 district) took on Turkey Valley in Gladbrook on Monday night for the right to advance to the state quarterfinals against the winner of Wapsie Valley and Grundy Center. G-R Postville

Wright, Crew continue Wolverine tradition at state cross country meet
By PATTI RUST Sports Correspondent FORT DODGE – The Dike-New Hartford cross country teams closed out the 2013 season with two runners, sophomores Kadi Wright and John Crew, representing them at the state cross country meet in Fort Dodge on Saturday. Both were making their second appearance at the state meet after having competed with the Wolverine teams there in 2012. Wright finished the girls’ race with a time of 16:36, placing 54th and landing her in the upper half of the field of 122 elite Class 2A female runners. “Kadi really came out strong in a tough field this year,” Coach Cuvelier said. “You could tell her focus had changed from last year’s race. She did a great job battling throughout the race.” Crew clocked a time of 16:41, good for a 14th place finish among the state’s top Class 2A male runners, 130 finishers in all. “John did a great job competing,” Dike-New Hartford cross country coach Barry Cuvelier said. “He led the race for a period of time in which he battled some of the best runners in the state. He was able to compete to finish what I thought was a great race. Each day we ask ourselves to give your best effort for that day and John really did a nice job competing.” As another season comes to an end, it looks promising for the young Dike-New Hartford squads to keep the strong Wolverine cross country tradition going into the future.

Spartans earn fourth straight regional final berth By JOHN JENSEN The Grundy Register GRUNDY CENTER — The Grundy Center High School volleyball team closed to within one victory of its fourth straight state tournament bid last week with a pair of regional victories. The Spartans overcame a slow start Tuesday to down South Hardin in four sets and then swept West Marshall Friday. GC (28-8, ranked No. 9 in Class 2A) will face fifth-ranked South Central Calhoun (38-4) Wednesday in Webster City. Results of the match will be posted online at www.thegrundyregister.com and on our Facebook page. Coach Darwin Sents’ team is in its fourth straight regional final with a very different team than the one that reached the Class 1A state final a year ago. “People say ‘Grundy Center’s down,’ this and that, if this is down I’m happy,” Sents said. “I love these girls. They play their hearts out, they put it out there. They’ve put themselves in a position to go to state. It’ll be a tough match, no doubt.”
Grundy Center 3, South Hardin 1 South Hardin put a scare into the Spartans last Tuesday in a regional quarterfinal, winning the first set 25-22 before GC came back to win the final three, 25-11, 25-22, 26-24. “We’re moving on, that’s the key,” Sents said after the match. “Certainly it wasn’t pretty, but South Hardin played really well. I felt like the two-week layoff did not help us. Game one I thought the two weeks off really showed up.” The match was Grundy Center’s
first since it defeated South Tama Oct. 15 to clinch the NICL West championship. While South Hardin played BCLUW in the first round of regionals Oct. 22, the Spartans had a bye. GC never led in the first set while suffering its first set loss to an NICL West opponent since 2009. Grundy Center tied the score 8-8 only to see South Hardin’s Mikayla Fisher respond with a kill and tied it 11-11 before the Spartans were called for a rare service time violation. South Hardin stretched its lead to four points, 22-18, as GC attacked wide. The Spartans closed to within two on a pair of occasions late, only to see the Tigers put the set away on a kill. Grundy Center came out looking like a different team in the second set. A Noel Saak ace gave the Spartans a 9-5 lead before Saak ran off five straight service points, including three aces, as GC built its lead to 16-7. A pair of Kennedy Buss kills made it 18-8 and a Katie Lindeman knock-down made it 21-8. Stephanie Faust clinched the victory with a kill of her own. All told, six different Spartans had kills in the set. The final two sets were closely contested. Set three saw three lead changes in the first 13 points and five overall along with eight ties. A Faust kill put the Spartans ahead 17-16 before South Hardin tied the score 20-20. Lindeman placed the ball perfectly down the left boundary line to put the Spartans ahead for good. Set four saw South Hardin jump to a 12-8 lead, forcing Sents to use a timeout. GC came back to take the lead on a Lindeman kill
and stretched the lead to 20-15 on a block by Buss and Alyssa Mathews. South Hardin would not go quietly, however, as it rallied to tie the score 24-24 on four consecutive kills. Faust stemmed the momentum with her 13th kill of the match and Piper Johanns clinched the victory with the Spartans’ 14th service ace of the match.

Grundy Center 3, West Marshall 0 GC overcame early challenges in the first two sets to down West Marshall 25-13, 25-21, 25-11 Friday. “We had quite a better start than Tuesday – obviously we talked about that,” Sents said. “The very first point was a kill. I don’t know how far into the game was until we swung (Tuesday against South Hardin).” Buss, the Spartans’ lone senior, was the star of the night in her final volleyball match on her home floor, finishing with a team-high 11 kills and four blocks. “We talked about this being her last night in the gym,” Sents said. “We said ‘Let’s make it really good.’ This should be a good memory for her.” Grundy Center jumped ahead See SPARTANS page 10

Grundy Center dominates against Starmont, suffers season ending loss to Wapsie Valley By PATTI RUST Sports Correspondent WAPSIE VALLEY – All good things must come to an end. So it was with the Grundy Center 2013 football season when the Spartans fell to the third-ranked Wapsie Valley Warriors in the second round of postseason play Monday night, 35-0. The Warriors put their first points on the board in the first quarter when a slippery ball fell out of Spartan hands and was picked up by Wapsie Valley’s Nolan Schmidt who took it five short yards for the score. The Wapsie Valley defense stifled a normally productive Spartan ground game, but consistently and steadily moved the ball down field themselves, scoring three more touchdowns in the second quarter to make it 28-0 at the half. The second half was a defensive battle, the Warriors continuing to prevent the Spartans from moving the ball both on the ground and in the air. The Grundy Center defense held strong as well, this half allowing just one Wapsie Valley score in the third quarter when Ryan Miller connected with Derek Trotter for a 13-yard touchdown pass. “It was really a game that took place up front,” Grundy Center head coach Brent Thoren said. “We were not able to establish any consistent run threat and therefore we became very predictable and had to pass the ball. Jordan Clapp did a great job punting the ball out of some tough field position, but we gave them a short field all night.” The highlights of the game for the Spartans came primarily from individual moments throughout rather than an accumulation of statistics in any particular category. Interceptions by Bryce Flater, Jordan Graham, and Bryce Moats, good kickoff returns by Nick Mauer and Moats, an exceptional punting performance by Jordan Clapp, a strong kickoff by Brock Rohler, and a Sam Thompson quarterback sack with the loss evident in the final moments of the game, all gave the Spartan fans cause to cheer. The Spartan defense saw four players, Flater, Thompson, Brady Hook, and Nick Saak in double digits on tackles. “I'm proud of how the kids continued to battle until the final play,” Thoren said. “We had a really good season and we have a lot to be proud of, but tonight we went against a team better than us, and that happens sometimes. The next challenge is for our young kids to build on this and keep the program moving forward.” Grundy Center ends the season with a 7-4 overall record, a second place finish in Class A District 4, and a postseason that took them to the second round. Wapsie Valley, the Class A District 3 champion, moves to 11-0 on the season and is set for a matchup with District 4 champ GladbrookReinbeck at Gladbrook this Friday, Nov. 8.

GRUNDY CENTER – The focus
of the Grundy Center football team when they took the field at Spartan Stadium last Wednesday night was to come away with a first round playoff win, and they did that in a big way, upending Starmont 53-13. “It was great to see the kids come out and continue to play at a high level,” Grundy Center head coach Brent Thoren said. “To get that first playoff win is a great step for us and that was great to be a part of that. All of my coaches did a great job with teaching the game plan to the kids, and then the players did an outstanding job of making plays.” The Grundy Center offense scored four touchdowns in the first quarter and two in the second, and the defense held Starmont to none to give the Spartans a commanding 39-0 halftime lead. In the second half both teams a touchdown in the third and fourth quarter to make it 53-13 at the final buzzer. The Spartans accumulated a season high 618 yards of total offense, 517 of those on the ground. Jordan Clapp accounted for 194 rushing yards and four touchdowns, including a 79-yard and an 85-yard run. Bryce Flater rushed for 100 yards and two touchdowns, including one 60-yard run, and also caught short 5-yard pass for a TD. Rohler threw two touchdown passes, one of them a 41-yard connection with Jordan Stoner. Bryce Moats rushed for 83 yards. “Jordan Clapp and Bryce Flater had a big night, but it was a product of our passing game being a threat and our offensive line doing a great job,” Thoren said. “It was also nice
to see Nick Mauer come back from injury and play really well defensively and nearly have a punt return for a touchdown.” Grundy Center 53, Starmont 13 Grundy Center 26 13 7 7 — 53 Starmont 0 0 7 6 — 13 Scoring Summary First quarter Grundy Center – Bryce Flater 60 run (Brock Rohler kick); 7-0 Grundy Center – Flater 5 pass from Rohler (kick failed); 13-0 Grundy Center – Jordan Clapp 79 run (two point conversion failed); 19-0 Grundy Center – Clapp 7 run (Rohler kick); 26-0 Second quarter Grundy Center – Clapp 2 run (Rohler kick); 33-0 Grundy Center – Jordan Stoner 41 pass from Rohler (kick failed); 39-0 Third quarter Grundy Center – Clapp 85 run (Rohler kick); 46-0 Starmont – Gabe Hamlett 17 run (Devon Baumgartner kick); 46-7 Fourth quarter Grundy Center – Flater 11 run (Rohler kick); 53-7 Starmont – Hamlett 36 run (kick failed); 53-13 Team totals GC Starmont Rushes-yards 30-517 36-153 Pass yards 101 70 Comp.-Att.-Int. 8-17-0 5-8-0 Total offense 618 223 Punts-avg. 2-33.5 3-37.3 Individuals Rushing – Grundy Center: Jordan Clapp 13-194, 4 TDs; Bryce Flater 6-100, 2 TDs; Bryce Moats 7-83; Nick Mauer 2-45; Brock Rohler 2-(minus 5).
