Propane storage facility gets OK Planning and Zoning green light airport location for Griffin’s BY

ALEXIS BECHMAN

ROUNDUP STAFF REPORTER

A propane company received the green light Monday from Payson’s Planning and Zoning Commission to go ahead with plans to seek approval to build a storage facility and sales office near the airport. Griffin’s Propane has offices in Safford, Show Low and New Mexico and wants to expand into Payson. The company currently leases a lot in Rye and services some 600 commercial and residential customers in Rim Country. They were planning to build a permanent office in Rye when Griffin’s Propane owner Jon Brote learned the Town of Payson was interested

in having them build in town. “I couldn’t believe it,” Brote said. “Usually (towns) are trying to push people like us away.” That was some three months ago and Brote has since located two empty lots at 1315 W. Red Baron Road in the Skypark Industrial subdivision. “There are not too many areas that you can put a propane plant in,” he said. The business is looking at constructing a new sales and distribution center at the site, which is bordered by industrial properties and another vacant lot, far from homes. The site is just 1,000 feet from the end of the airport runway though, a fact that didn’t sway a planning official’s decision to recommend the Planning and Zoning Commission approve a conditional use permit Monday. “Although it is somewhat close, the site is to the southwest from the end of the runway and take-offs and landings are to the west See Griffin’s, page 9A

According to the U.S. Fire Administration, about 164,500 cooking fires occur in American homes each year. The number of cooking fires peaks in November and declines during the summer months. Most cooking fires happen in the evening between the hours of 4 p.m. and 9 p.m. said the U.S. Fire Administration report. Heron said the Hellsgate firefighters plan to take their cooking fire prop around town. Later this month, the firefighters and their prop will show up at Home Depot. Already, Heron said Hellsgate personnel have gone to numerous homeowner associations to talk to people about cooking fires. The

Big kids. Little kids. Running kids. Laughing kids. Kids, kids, kids took over the Hellsgate Fire Station during its open house to celebrate fire prevention month. “We did this eight years ago and only five people showed up,” said Fire Chief Gary Hatch. This year, he said increased publicity helped — and scheduling it during the school’s fall break didn’t hurt either. Kids took over the firehouse. They

climbed over the ladder truck and sat in the driver’s seat and plunked headphones over their ears. They dressed themselves in fire jackets that overwhelmed them, helmets tilted to the side, grabbed garden hoses and ran to douse out an orange cone. And when the Native Air helicopter landed, they pointed in the sky and yelled, “It’s landing, it’s landing!” Once the copter was on the ground, the kids rushed the machine and lined up for a chance to sit inside. Captain Rick Heron served as master of ceremonies for the evening. Hatch said Heron worked hard to organize the event. “We received a grant to educate the public about kitchen fires,” said Heron, standing in front of a prop made up of a pan and propane fire made to look like a fire on a stove. Attendees of the open house used a

GCC enrollment rises Globe campus up 15 percent, 6.3 percent increase elsewhere BY

MICHELE NELSON

The Pueblo campus of Gila Community College (GCC) located in Globe reports a 15 percent increase in enrollment since the board voted to lower tuition rates and reinstate free senior tuition at its July meeting. Other campuses in the district, including Payson, report a 6.3 percent overall increase in enrollment. “But how many seniors are included in those numbers (and) is that a good thing?” asked Larry Stephenson, GCC board president, who represents the college district in northern Gila County. So upset over this issue that he resigned, Tom Loeffler, former GCC board member, left shortly after the board had a split vote because of the

In his resignation letter, Loeffler wrote, “I and others see no way the college can remain viable if this type of irresponsible decision making continues.

THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING YOUR LOCAL THEATRE!

When historian Patricia (Gail) Hearne heard former Payson Unified School District Superintendent Casey O’Brien planned on saving the old Julia Randall Rock Building, she was ecstatic. “Casey O’Brien had it remodeled instead of demolished,” she said to a Library Friends of Payson audience. She decided to watch the remodel, take pictures and collect photos and memorabilia from the building’s past. Hearne presented her research at a meeting in the Payson Library. The Rock Building sits next to the new Julia Randall School off of Main Street. It now houses the district administration offices. However, from 1939 until 2009, the building contained the classrooms, gymnasium and stage that served the children of

Payson. New Deal funds and programs built the historic structure. Hearne said in 1937, the Federal government allocated $17,055 to build the rock schoolhouse through the Works Progress Administration (WPA). An additional $5,877 from local sponsors guaranteed the building would be completed. “Local men were hired to build the rock building, including Columbus ‘Boy’ Haught (father of Jr. Haught); Grady Harrison (father of Audrey Harrison); Walter Haught (father of Pat Haught Cline); and Andrew Ogilvie (father of Anna Mae Ogilvie Deming),” said Hearne. The rocks that make up the walls of the building were chiseled by hand from stones dug out of a quarry located south of town where the current Tonto Apache Market now stands. The stonemason was John Hughes, said Hearne. The architect for the project, Vere O. Wallingford (1876-1944) of Phoenix, not only designed the Payson rock building but also designed an exact replica

for Young. Unfortunately that building burned down, said Hearne. In February 1939, construction finished and fifth- through 12th-grade students transferred their books and supplies from the nearby wooden schoolhouse into the rock building. “These students included Fern Spears, Pat Haught Cline and C.B. Jr. Haught,” said Hearne. Soon after classes started, a tradition of posing classes and teams on the steps that lead out to Main Street started. Jr. Haught was a freshman when he moved into the rock building. By the time of his senior year, he served as the captain of the basketball team. The team became the regional champions, said Hearne. Teams played in the gymnasium, which now houses the board meeting room. “It was a properly sized basketball court — there was little space between the court and the wall,” said former student Fern Spears. “We had to be careful to keep our feet back when we sat on the sidelines in folding

chairs.” The rock building gym was also used for a variety of community events besides basketball games such as plays, quilt displays, Christmas parties, square dancing and funeral gatherings, said Hearne. The building was officially named Julia Randall Elementary School in 1969, the year Miss Randall (1899-1990) retired from the Payson School District. Her teaching career spanned 50 years in Gila County — 45 of them in Payson, said Hearne. A fellow teacher of Randall’s, Olive Fletcher, attended both Miss Randall’s retirement party and Hearne’s presentation. She said when they announced the name change at the retirement party Miss Randall said, “I will never believe it!” Fletcher said when the historical society donated a sign with Randall’s name on it, she finally believed. During the remodel, Hearne and some former teachers toured the basement to look for a reported time capsule. “We never found it,” said Hearne. They did find an old desk and two doors, one a classroom door the other a basement door. Hearne had the historical society set aside the objects to display at the museum. Hearne finished up her presentation with two pictures — one of the last day of school and the other of the administration hallway now. She hopes to fill the empty walls with historical pictures of the old rock building.

OURVIEW

LOOKBACK • Oct. 17, 1906: Wilhelm Voigt, a German shoemaker, impersonates an army officer and leads an entire squad of soldiers to help him steal 4,000 marks. Voigt humiliated the German army by exploiting their blind obedience to authority and getting them to assist in his audacious robbery. • Oct. 15, 1917: Mata Hari is executed for espionage by a French firing squad. Her military trial was riddled with bias and circumstantial evidence, and it is probable that French authorities trumped her up as “the greatest woman spy of the century” as a distraction for the huge losses the French army was suffering. • Oct. 14, 1947: U.S. Air Force Capt. Chuck Yeager becomes the first person to fly faster than the speed of sound. Yeager’s X-1 rocket plane was lifted to an altitude of 25,000 feet by a B-29 aircraft and then released through the bomb bay. • Oct. 16, 1958: Chevrolet begins to sell the El Camino, a combination sedanpickup truck. In 1964, the company introduced a version built on the brawnier Chevelle platform. Today, the car is a cult classic.

Checking out a helicopter and a fire truck were just some of the activities enjoyed by attendees of an open house hosted by the Hellsgate Fire Department as part of National Fire Prevention Month.

Fire safety needs to be a year-round practice rea firefighters are always making an effort through outreach programs to educate Rim Country residents about fire safety. But an extra effort was made last week by the Hellsgate Fire Department with an open house and a variety of demonstrations because October is National Fire Prevention Month. Thank the historic Chicago Fire of Oct. 8-10, 1871 for that fact. The primary themes were kitchen fires and car fires, but participants also were invited to get a close look at fire engines and rescue helicopters. The most effective way to protect yourself and your home from fire is to identify and remove fire hazards. According to the American Red Cross, 65 percent of house fire deaths occur in homes with no working smoke alarms. During a home fire, working smoke alarms and a fire escape plan that has been practiced regularly can save lives. • If a fire occurs in your home, GET OUT, STAY OUT and CALL for help. • Install smoke alarms on every level of your home, inside bedrooms and outside sleeping areas. Test them every month and replace the batteries at least once a year. • Talk with all household members about a fire escape plan and practice the plan twice a year. • Cooking fires are the No. 1 cause of home fires and home fire injuries. • Home fires are more likely to start in the kitchen than any other room in your home. • Unattended cooking causes nearly 90 percent of all kitchen fires. To be more prepared to deal with kitchen fires, the Red Cross recommends: Never leave cooking unattended. Stay in the kitchen when you are frying, grilling or broiling food. If you must leave the kitchen for even a short period of time, turn off the stove. If you are simmering, baking, boiling or roasting food, check it regularly, remain in the home while food is cooking and use a timer to remind yourself that the stove or oven is on. Avoid wearing loose clothing or dangling sleeves while cooking. Keep kids away from cooking area by enforcing a “kidfree zone” of three feet around the stove. Keep anything that can catch fire away from your stove top, oven or any other appliance that generates heat. Clean cooking surfaces on a regular basis to prevent grease buildup. Consider having a fire extinguisher in the kitchen and take lessons on how to use it. Always check the kitchen before going to bed to make sure everything is turned off. If you are using wood to heat this winter, make sure you keep the woodpile away from your home. Should there be a fire, it would be additional fuel for the flames. Plus, any number of wild animals, rodents and insects can make the woodpile a nest during cold weather.

County treasurer’s issues have long reach EDITOR: It is understandable that few citizens are familiar with the functions of the Gila County treasurer’s office. Arizona Revised Statutes require public entities (cities, towns, county governments, school districts, community colleges, sewer, fire districts, etc.) to maintain their bank accounts (with few exceptions) with the county treasurer. The revenue for these entities — property taxes, sales taxes, state aid, etc. — must be deposited with the county treasurer. Entities then submit expense vouchers to the treasurer, who in turn prints check payments to be distributed to the entities’ vendors. Property tax bills prepared by the Gila County Treasurer Debora Savage for these entities are historically distributed to property owners in early September with a Nov. 1 final due date. To date, these property tax bills have not been prepared due to problems implementing computer software for a new treasurer accounting system. This project has been ongoing for almost two years. When will it be completed? Meanwhile, the lack of revenue for all of these entities from property taxes will and is creating financial hardship. Most of the seven school districts in Gila County rely heavily on property taxes to deliver their services. Most entities have bank credit lines, but if they become exhausted, they will have trouble making payroll and paying their bills. In addition, they will incur interest expense from the use of their credit lines. Will the Gila County treasurer pay for this expense due to the tardiness in the preparation of property tax bills? Whenever the property tax bills do hit the street, responsible property owners and mortgage holders should pay the bills upon receipt and not wait until a final due date. This way, public entities affected will be able to maintain their services with minimal disruption and increased cost. Jim Hippel

Pot safer than booze EDITOR: Let’s hear it for the town of Payson! By opening a medical marijuana clinic we have joined the rest of the informed, civilized nations of the world. Despite the lies of our government and big business, enough people have wisely decided that it was time to embrace this harmless plant, which has been used for treatment for thousands of years. Now those who desperately need help can get it. However, too many remain uniformed about pot; especially since the government decided to demonize it in 1933 after alcohol was legalized and the DEA desperately needed a new menace to combat. A question: What would you rather have a driver or a neighbor on — pot or booze? Scientists have concluded that alcohol is “the ruin of reason” and releases the bestial

instincts in the cortex. People get drunk, beat up others and drive like lunatics, endangering innocent victims. Tests (Car & Driver magazine, June 1980) have proved that people drive better on pot and it has never killed anyone or caused death in others. Pot smokers mellow out, drink a little vino and generally are a peaceful lot. You never see a fight like you do at bars. But the booze companies don’t want a gentle herb that you can grow in your back yard. They want you to go out and spend money at a store, of which there are seemingly a thousand outlets around here. Yet no one protests when another booze outlet is opened. I wish the public was better informed. If all booze was eliminated and only pot sold, this would be a better, safer world. We could save thousands of alcohol-related deaths every year. Fewer innocent wives would be battered. Instead people would get high and lay back, enjoying life and music, bothering no one. If anyone wishes to debate I am available anytime, anyplace. Leon Chamberlain

St. Vincent Food Bank shelves almost bare EDITOR: The St. Vincent de Paul Food Bank shelves are almost bare! This time each year, we experience a slowdown of regular food deliveries from our suppliers. So, we are in need of food donations of all non-perishable items to restock our shelves and continue providing food boxes to those in need throughout our community. We are asking the Rim Country community to lend a helping hand. It is with your help that we can continue to meet the needs of the many families that rely on the Food Bank to help them through their tough times. Please bring your donations by the Food Bank, which is located at 511 S. St. Phillips Street, on the grounds of St. Philip the Apostle Catholic Church. Food Bank hours are Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, from 12:30 p.m. until 2:30 p.m. For further information, please call (928) 474-9104. Thank you for your continued support. Vincentians of St. Vincent de Paul

Help with fire prevention work wondrous EDITOR: On a bright, sunny Saturday morning recently, John and Joyce Bittner of Fossil Creek Creamery in Strawberry closed down their business for the day and, with the help of several talented chefs and vendors, went to work creating magic. The Third Annual Farm Dinner was an elegant evening that raised an astounding $5,000 for wildfire prevention and trails in the Pine/Strawberry fuel break. We can’t thank John and Joyce enough for their generosity and their commitment to our community. And to Chef Akos Szabo, Chef Mark Hamilton, Chef Tracy Dempsey, Ray Stephens, Julie La Magna and all

the others who helped to make this event such a success — thank you. Generosity abounds in the Rim Country, as exemplified by three local bands, Bucket List, Trouble in Paradise and the John Scott Band, who donated their talents to the recent Fire on the Rim Mountain Bike Race fund-raiser and were inadvertently not recognized for their outstanding contributions. Thank you, guys! Janet Brandt

Recall Barton EDITOR: Recent public remarks by Brenda Barton who claims to represent this district in the state Legislature, prove that she completely misuses this trust. Her most recent miscreant and uninformed public remarks concerning President Obama and the Tea Party government shut down are, or should be, a disgrace to every citizen. She brings dishonor and shame on the people she claims to represent. We deserve far better, no matter what our politics. A recall should be in order. Noble Collins

Obama vs. climate change EDITOR: President Obama claims that carbon dioxide CO2, causes climate change and threatens public health and that “cutting carbon pollution will help keep our air and water clean and protect our kids.” President Obama’s statements couldn’t be further from the truth. Far from being a “pollutant, carbon dioxide is the elixir of life, without it there would be no life, human, animal and most of all plants, especially food plants. Nature drives climate, not mankind. Satellite data show atmosphere water vapor to have been relatively constant over the past 30 years. The idea that atmosphere level of CO2, a trace gas is controlling weather and water cycle is improbable. The idea that mankind’s relatively tiny CO2 emissions impact the weather cycle is preposterous. This whole CO2 tax thing is just another way to obtain more funding. Ed Welge Editor’s Note: The scientific consensus that rising levels of CO2 will affect the climate is overwhelming, according to NASA. A survey of 928 peer-reviewed abstracts on the subject “global climate change” published between 1993 and 2003 shows that not a single paper rejected the consensus position that global warming is man caused. The study was done by a University of San Diego researcher and published in Science. A follow-up study by a Skeptical Science team of researchers reviewed more than 12,000 peer-reviewed abstracts on the subjects of “global warming” and “global climate change” published between 1991 and 2011 found that of the papers taking a position on the cause of global warming, more than 97 percent agreed that humans are causing it.

Girls on the Run participants warm up to practice for their Nov. 2 5K. All they need are Running Buddies to help them make the trek, and the deadline to register as a Running Buddy is Friday, Oct. 18.

SPECIAL TO THE ROUNDUP

For the first time ever, Payson will host a 5K at Green Valley Park on Saturday, Nov. 2 for the Girls on the Run (GOTR) program. But the girls running need help. They each need a running buddy. If you don’t know what that is, read on to find out what, when, and how to volunteer. What is a Running Buddy?

A Running Buddy runs, walks, skips or hops with a Girls on the Run girl during the Eastern Arizona Area Health Education Center (EAHEC) 5K Celebration on Saturday, Nov. 2. That means keeping pace with the girl, ensuring her safety and cheering her on. Share a girl’s exhilaration and excitement as she crosses the finish line of her first 5K race. For many girls, this is the biggest challenge and greatest accomplishment of their Girls on the Run experience. One of their favorite parts is having their very own Running Buddy by their side. The goal of Girls on the Run is for the girls to do their best and have fun. Girls are not encouraged to race competitively, but are encouraged to reach their own goals. For most girls that’s making it to the finish line — whether by walking, running or skipping.

• New and returning Running Buddies must consent to a background check if not related to the GOTR participant. • Running buddies will be responsible for completing their own background check using the company Web site provided by GOTR National. GOTRNA will be invoiced for the background check, Running Buddies will not have to pay for this service or provide any type of payment information. • Running Buddies are asked to make a $25 contribution for their 5K registration which includes a T-shirt. • Running buddies must be female unless they are related or school staff of the GOTR participant. • Families are strongly urged to participate. • Family members do need to register as a Running Buddy. For more information on the requirements, please contact Amity Justice at amity.justice@girlsontherun.org or call (928) 978-1391. What are some of the qualities of a Running Buddy?

Buddies are fun-loving, patient and supportive, and they enjoy spending time with youth and have the ability to run or power walk a 5K.

What are the requirements?

Do Running Buddies have to run?

• A volunteer must be 16 years or older by Nov. 2.

No. Running Buddies do not have to run. Running Buddies may be of all fitness abili-

How do I become a Running Buddy?

• Register online by Friday, Oct. 18, a link to registration is on the GOTR Web site: www.gotrea.org. • Be available on Nov. 2 for the Girls on the Run 5K at Green Valley Park in Payson, Ariz. The race begins at 10 a.m., but Running Buddies must arrive by 9 a.m. in order to be matched up with their buddy. • Read and sign required training materials that will be e-mailed directly to the volunteer. If you would like to run with a specific girl, list your girl’s name when you register. Organizers need to be able to identify which girls need to be paired with a community runner so parents/ relatives are encouraged to apply as soon as possible. • What if I just want to run the race? Racers can register for the EAHEC Girls on the Run 5K Celebration as a community participant and not be assigned as a running buddy. The registration fee of $25 will help sustain the GOTR program in Gila, Graham and Greenlee Counties for future seasons and show support to all the GOTR/Girls on Track participants.

should always be able to relax on the treatment table and “breathe” through the treatment of these tender areas. The good news is that soreness improves very quickly with the application of special techniques. Some effects that a person may experience during a massage session are: digestive sounds (tummy growling, even if not hungry), temporary swelling of sinus membranes, emotional feelings, memories, calmness and relaxation. There are reasons why our autonomic nervous system consists of three parts. I will shortly explain two of those (sympathetic and parasympathetic) as they relate to the effects and benefits of massage. The sympathetic nervous system is the body’s way of protection against danger or a sense of danger. It is also the body’s way of cooping with extreme stress or an emergency. This condition is referred to as the “fight-or-flight” response. Activation of this system is the body’s way of dealing with stress, real or perceived, and will increase the heart rate, divert blood to the muscles, decrease peristalsis, and secrete adrenaline and epinephrine into the blood stream. The body activates the sweat glands and heightens its alert level. Unfortunately, many people with busy lifestyles, find themselves in this state most of their

waking hours. The good new is, during massage, the parasympathetic part of the nervous system is tapped into and many people experience some physiological effects as well as emotional ones. The parasympathetic system is a place of rejuvenation and healing. The parasympathetic system is the exact opposite of the sympathetic system and is used to achieve a balance in the body. When activated, peristalsis is increased, blood pressure is lowered, and pain receptors are ignored as bradykines are reduced in the blood stream. Blood circulation is increased to the internal organs, which speeds digestion. In effect, all of the parasympathetic systems are calming and soothing. Along with massage strokes and soft tissue manipulation, many therapists use other treatments to increase well-being, including lymphatic brushing, hot or cool stone therapy, hot and cold packs, essential oils and passive stretching. What will you feel like and what should you do after a massage therapy session?

Your therapist will instruct you to drink lots of water to hydrate the body and aid in the flushing of newly mobilized toxins in the hours following the massage. You may feel calm, sleepy or even energized. Some people prefer to nap after a session. Others like to gently exercise and stretch. If the treatment is in the evening, some folks love to go home and go to sleep for the night. Many people feel hungry and want to eat a light, healthy meal. Remember, digestion has been stimulated. If you would like to try the gentle therapy of massage and its cascade of beneficial effects to improve your quality of life, ask your physician for a referral or look into other therapist-finding websites such as AMTA or findamassagetherapist.org.

Man pleads guilty to drunk driving A Scottsdale man who swerved off Highway 87 then nearly collided head-on with several cars in June of 2013 will spend at least 10 days in jail after pleading guilty to drunk driving charges. Nathan Bakken pled guilty to a misdemeanor DUI charge after officers arrested him with a blood alcohol level twice the legal limit, according to Gila County Attorney Bradley Beauchamp.

The retired officer watched as Bakken’s vehicle ran off the road, collided with an embankment, swerved back across the roadway, nearly collided with oncoming traffic, then again left the roadway and finally came to rest in a rocky area. The retired officer found Bakken was uninjured and called 911. DPS officers subsequently investigated Bakken for driving under the influence and deter-

ARE YOU:

A stroke at 50? Not me! CHRISTY VANDERMOLEN

SPECIAL TO THE ROUNDUP

Doug Mock is a man’s man — military career, Special Ops Unit, Purple Heart recipient, hunter, fisherman and adventure seeker. And, like a lot of men, he may have ignored the signs of a potential stroke. Still at 52, a major illness was not something he expected. Doug and his fiancé, Terry, travel extensively, trailer and boat in tow making hunting videos titled “On Our Own Outdoor Adventures with Doug and Terry.” He has hunted with Jeff Foxworthy and George Brett and was interviewed on “Outdoor Addictions.” Doug and Terry decided to make Payson their base after falling in love with the Tonto Basin area. They were in the process of looking for a home to buy when one morning Doug was at the sink in their trailer and describes it as, “I lost the ability to move and just fell to my left side on to the floor, unable to do anything. It is an experience I would never wish on anyone.” While there is some history of

Doug Mock

stroke in his family and signs of mini-strokes he ignored in the past, Doug feels the event could have been triggered by a change in managing his blood pressure. Looking back, Doug wishes he had been more of an advocate for himself regarding his blood pressure and medication changes. Doug had a massive stroke. His left side was completely paralyzed. After spending months at a

Valley hospital and then another month at a Valley rehab, Doug was succumbing to depression and asked to be transferred to a rehabilitation facility in Payson. Doug spent the next four months at Payson Care Center where he received extensive therapy to regain movement to the left side of his body. Injury and recovery were not new to Doug. His left arm had been so badly shot in Desert Storm it had to be reattached. It was thought he would never regain the ability to use that arm. Doug says the move to Payson and particularly Payson Care Center is what proved to make his recovery so successful. “The rehabilitation team was outstanding, the nurses so compassionate, and though the recovery has been hard, I’m walking, I’m regaining the strength of my arm and I’m going to keep hunting. My therapists, Libbie, Jake and Christiana, were incredible, working with me day after day, revitalizing muscles that I feared would never regain their strength. Walking, practicing lateral movements and e-stem ther-

apy were my main therapies. Working those muscles was the most severe pain imaginable. Barb, my primary Certified Nursing Assistant, was an angel in disguise, encouraging me day after day and never letting me lose sight of my goals. “While at Payson Care Center I also renewed my faith in God and without it I would never have had the strength to recover. You just can’t get through something like this without faith in a higher power.” Doug was discharged from Payson Care Center with tearful goodbyes from staff and fellow patients. He was an inspiration to everyone. Though he often uses a motorized wheelchair, Doug and Terry are soon headed to northwest Nebraska to go bear hunting and will marry Saturday, Oct. 19.

Information People with Medicare Should Know Medicare Open Enrollment (October 15-December 7, 2013) is the time when all people with Medicare are encouraged to review their current health and prescription drug coverage, including any changes in costs, coverage and benefits that will take effect next year. If you want to change your coverage for next year, this is the time to do it. If you’re satisfied that your current coverage will continue to meet your needs for next year, you don’t need to do anything. For more information on Medicare Open Enrollment, visit Medicare.gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE.

The Health Insurance Marketplace Open enrollment period (October 1, 2013 to March 31, 2014) The Health Insurance Marketplace is designed to help people who don’t have any health insurance. You have health insurance through Medicare. The Marketplace won’t have any effect on your Medicare coverage. It’s against the law for someone who knows you have Medicare to sell you a Marketplace plan. Note: The Health Insurance Marketplace Open Enrollment period overlaps with the Medicare Open Enrollment period. Therefore, people with Medicare who are looking to make Medicare coverage changes should make sure that they are reviewing Medicare plans and not Marketplace options. The Marketplace provides new health insurance options for many Americans. If you have family andfriends who don’t have health insurance, tell them to visit HealthCare.gov to learn more about their options. (This information is provided by the United States Department of Health and Human Services) Pinal-Gila Council for Seniors Citizens (PGCSC) has scheduled enrollment events in Pinal and Gila Counties to help with Medicare Open Enrollment. The PGCSC is part of the Arizona State Health Insurance Program (SHIP). SHIP counselors are available to conduct on-line comparisons, assist with enrollment in a plan of your choice, assistance with applications and screening for extra help programs. Be sure and bring a list of prescriptions to help with prescription drug provider comparisons. SHIP Counselors do not recommend or endorse any particular company, plan or agent. The SHIP provides free objective information about insurance and benefits.

JAZZ ARTISTS IN PAYSON

The Payson Friends of Jazz and the Community Presbyterian Church treated jazz fans to a concert with Half Note recording artist Tony Vaca on flute and sax. The second guest musician was Steve Douglas on standup string acoustic bass. As usual, Rim Country resident Gerry Reynolds, who produces the concert series, was the drummer. Vaca opened the concert with “Swinging Shepherd Blues” and then asked those present to request their favorites, so the majority of tunes played were requests. At the break, Vaca took time out to offer some pointers to a Payson High School student sax player and visit with guests at the concert. The intimate setting of the church at 800 W. Main St. makes it easy for the guest artists and audience to chat during the break. Jazz fans who purchase subscriptions for a donation of $100 per person ($200 per couple/family) earns the “rank” of Jazz Patron and invitations to participate in the social activities the group has, including after-concert gatherings with the artists. To learn more about becoming a Jazz Patron, call John Shevlin at (928) 474-7454.

The Arizona State Parks Board authorized seven projects funded with $542,321 from the state Off-Highway Vehicle Recreation Fund and $339,108 from the federal Recreational Trails Program. These projects also include $209,116 in matching funds from agency funds and volunteers. The seven projects approved include: • $131,000 to Payson Ranger District of the Tonto National Forest to complete cultural and resource surveys in three areas where they intend to make future improvements on OHV facilities and routes; • $53,000 to Tonto Recreation Alliance, Inc. to coordinate an Adopt-A-Trail program that will provide ongoing maintenance to selected OHV routes; • $88,956 to the Tonto National Forest to

complete surveys for archaeological sites to help and maintain OHV routes; • $62,496 to the Prescott National Forest to maintain OHV routes; • $244,777 to Coconino National Forest to do environmental analysis for the Cornville single track trail area, trail maintenance, and support facility development; • $210,000 to the Coconino National Forest (Flagstaff Ranger District) to suppress dust emissions of the access road to the popular Cider Hills OHV Recreation Area; • $91,000 to the Bureau of Land Management to help with travel management planning The Arizona State Parks OHV Recreation Fund comes from gas taxes and since 1991 has spent $10 million on OHV trails, support facilities, trail signage, OHV maps, repair of dam-

age and support for education and law enforcement. The federal Recreational Trails Program provides another $775,000 for motorized trail development. In 2008 the Arizona Legislature required off-highway users to buy a $25 sticker for their license plates, which has raised $2 million since 2009. The Arizona Game and Fish Department gets 35 percent of the money and the State Land Department gets 5 percent. To apply for the next round of grants, visit at AZStateParks.com/grants. Arizona State Parks develops the OHV recreation plan every five years with input from land managing agency staff, OHV user organizations, individual OHV users and the general public.

GCC campuses report increased enrollment From page 1A I currently see no bright future for the community college.” Stephenson said that reporting tuition increases without also reporting the finances does not tell the whole story. “At our last monthly meeting, the financial report showed tuition revenue is down 8 percent over projections,” he said, “It’s always a balancing act between enrollment and finances.” Before lowering tuition, the GCC board had increased tuition to cover the costs of declining enrollment. A press release from GCC does not indicate if the majority of those enrolling are seniors or if younger students swell the ranks. Stephenson said that is the question that needs to be asked and answered because the college cannot cover costs if most of the students are free seniors. The Legislature provides state support based on the number of “full time equivalent students” (FTES), which comes to 30 credit hours. The state pays $410 for each FTES. That works out to $13.67 per

credit covered by the state, according to numbers provided by Susan Gallo, who prepares monthly financial reports for the board. That means the state would pay the district $840 for a three-credit class with 20 students, which is generally less than the district pays its adjunct instructors — GCC does pay its part-time faculty about 50 percent less than Mesa Community College. The Globe campus has seen an added boost in enrollment because they offer a popular course to certify students as cosmetologists and nail technicians — Payson does not. In its press release, the Globe campus also touted two new programs under development, medical coding and billing, and building/construction trades. Stephenson has concerns about the enrollment numbers. “Enrollment is good, but I would prefer for us to be financially stable,” he said. The next GCC board meeting will be at 1 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 17. Rim Country residents may watch the meeting at the GCC campus in Payson. For more information, please call (928) 468-8039.

The site will store large, 120-gallon and larger propane tanks, equipment, a sales office and a 30,000-gallon propane tank for refueling. Wilbanks wrote that the height of the large storage tank could make it susceptible to lightning strikes. Brote said the tank would be grounded and

he had never had any issues with other tanks in the past. Brote said the sales office would offer propane appliances and outdoor cookware for sale and would be open in late summer if everything goes as planned. The site is not for small tank exchange or refilling, so the traffic level should be low to moderate, he said. The company opened a temporary office in Rye more than a year ago and hadn’t looked

Firefighters make special effort to reduce kitchen fires From page 1A

Photos by Michele Nelson/Roundup

It was just fun and games for the youngsters attending the Oct. 10 open house at the Hellsgate Fire Station in Star Valley, but parents, grandparents and others took home important information about kitchen fires and more as part of the National Fire Prevention Month program.

firefighters had homeowners use the prop to understand what it takes to put out a cooking fire. While all that was fun for the kids and adults visiting the fire station, the firefighters planned their own fun â&#x20AC;&#x201D; lighting a car on fire. First, they showed the audience the numerous tools they use to tear a car apart. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I went on one call where a guy had his motor home fall on him as he changed a tire,â&#x20AC;? said Heron, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We used one of our jack tools to get the vehicle off of him.â&#x20AC;? The Hellsgate fire folk used a small white, four-door car with Minnesota plates to cut and then rip the top off the car. Heron perched on the bars of the fence in front of the car and yelled explanations to the audience. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We tear the car apart to get to the injured passenger,â&#x20AC;? he said as the firefighters pulled apart the car. Then the fun started. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to start this car on fire,â&#x20AC;? said Heron. The Hellsgate firefighters and reservists stuffed the engine with straw. The water truck stood ready nearby. The kids started chanting, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fire, fire, fire!â&#x20AC;? as Heronâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crew lit the engine on fire. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We hopefully got all of the gas out of the car,â&#x20AC;? said Heron, but he moved everyone back just to make sure all were safe. As the fire burned, a small explosion got everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attention and firefighters moved in to stop the blaze. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What does a fire need to burn?â&#x20AC;? Heron asked the kids too engrossed in

the fire to answer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It needs fuel and oxygen,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Right now the hood is down, watch what happens when they lift up the hood and the fire gets more air. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dangerous for the firemen.â&#x20AC;? But the Hellsgate crew got it under control quickly with a hose that releases enough water in 15 seconds that a garden hose takes 10 minutes to equal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why you should call 911 as soon as you can,â&#x20AC;? said Hatch. The fire chief reminded everyone that firefighters are trained and have the equipment to douse a fire much more quickly than residents. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t call because they are embarrassed or really believe they can handle it themselves,â&#x20AC;? he said. And that represented the purpose of the Hellsgate open house. Firefighters are here to help the community and the quicker they get involved, the less damage to everything and everyone. But the kids only cared that they had fun, were able to watch a car burn and had a free hot dog.

ROUNDUP SPORTS EDITOR

At 6-foot-5, 235 pounds, William Youngberg is an imposing figure on a high school football field. The Payson High senior is someone opposing teams can’t help but notice. If it’s not his size they notice, it’s the fact that the defensive end is one of the state’s leading tacklers in Division IV. “You’ve got to account for him on every play,” said Payson head coach Jake Swartwood. “He sees a lot of double teams and he fights through them. He’s a good anchor at the end position. “People aren’t going to run at him. They’re going to run away from him for the most part. That makes it easy for us

Globe’s Aaron Hurley (45) tries to wrap up Payson sophomore Wyatt Chapman as the Tigers’ Andrew Woods looks on from his knees and Payson’s Jared Varner (8) and Bobby Lloyd (10) look for someone to block during the Longhorns’ 6735 win Friday. The Tigers had little success trying to tackle Chapman, who ran for 255 yards and five touchdowns. points in a Sept. 6 win at Page. And Chapman was the key. The young speedster carried the ball 20 times. He also broke free for a 52-yard touchdown and added scoring runs of 29, 12 and 1 yards. The 3A/Division IV record for touchdowns in a game is eight by Chinle’s Trent Thompson against Red Mesa in 1986. The record for touchdowns in a game in all divisions is 10 in Class 1A by Vincent Alvarado of Seligman vs. Canyon State in 2004. “That was great,” Chapman said. “It felt really good. Our offensive line did really great. They opened up the holes. It was one of the best games our line has had.” Skinner had more success in his second start running the offense than in his

first. After completing just 11 of 28 passes and being intercepted twice at Fountain Hills, the 10th-grader was six of 10 for 75 yards and a pair of TDs with no interceptions. He hit Tyus Sarnowski with a 20-yard scoring pass in the first quarter and found Dean Harpe open for a 10-yard strike in the second quarter. Skinner also ran 10 times for 56 yards and a 4-yard TD 1:38 into the fourth quarter after Globe took the momentum by scoring three third-quarter TDs to cut the deficit to 14 points, 4127. Chapman scored on a 1-yard run four seconds later after Jesse Barry recovered the ensuing kickoff at the Globe 1 when the Tigers mistakenly let the kick

The Longhorns needed a positive performance. They got it. Sophomore Wyatt Chapman rushed for 255 yards and five touchdowns as Payson’s football team exploded for 10 touchdowns in a 67-35 blowout of visiting Globe on Friday night. The Horns were reeling from three losses in four games. But they did their best to put behind them a disappointing second-half performance in a 33-19 homecoming loss to St. Johns two weeks ago and last week’s 55-14 thumping at Fountain Hills. The offense was clicking on all cylinders despite the absence of starting quarterback Miguel Mendoza as they improved to 4-3. The senior missed his second consecutive game with a knee injury, but is expected to return this week at Snowflake according to head coach Jake Swartwood. “I was happy to see us come out in the first half and really push it and stay with drives and keep the throttle down and not ease up on somebody,” Swartwood said. With sophomore Brian Skinner under center once again, PHS burst out of the gate to score on its first five possessions and build a 34-0 lead. That’s after the Tigers surprised the Horns by recovering an onside kick to open the game. But the home team got the momentum back by stopping Globe for no gain on fourth-and-4 from the Payson 31. And Chapman burst through a big hole off left tackle on first down for a 69yard score 3:35 into the contest that opened the floodgates and led to one of the highest scoring games in program history. It may be a record point total, but the Roundup could not confirm that. Checking MaxPreps.com, the only time they scored 60 points in records dating back to the 2004 season came in a 62-0 win over Holbrook on Nov. 8, 2008. It is easily the most points PHS has scored this season, eclipsing the 42

fall out. Sahuaro’s tough hitters made it difficult to defend with our block and digging.” They then faced unbeaten Gilbert Campo Verde, which is No. 2 in the Div. II power rankings and wound up finishing second in the tournament to Tucson. Campo Verde won 25-19, 2512. “Their all-around versatility and strength were hard to match, and we fell behind 11-24,” the coach said. “But a side out and a seven-point Mckenzie Creighton serving run turned the set from a blowout to drama, as we closed to within 19-24. But Campo scored the last point to win, and they handled us easily in set two.” They rebounded to beat Div. III Tucson Amphitheater 25-8, 25-15 and Div. II Tucson Flowing Wells 25-13, 2519 to finish third in the five-team pool. Unfortunately for the Longhorns, they didn’t win the tiebreakers against the third-place finishers from the other pools and wound up going into the consolation bracket as the

High school teams face pretty much the same schools year-in and year-out. There are exceptions, of course, but the opponents are generally the same from year to year. So the Marana Mountain View Invitational was a strange new experience for Payson High’s varsity volleyball team last weekend. None of the Longhorns’ opponents in the 23team field were familiar. “Of the seven teams we played in the tourney, Payson had never played any of them before in my 10 years here,” said coach Arnold Stonebrink. “In fact, none of them had we even played in a summer tournament. They were mostly Division II schools

from the south and it was good to play against such competition.” A steady diet of larger schools was a challenge for the Division III Longhorns. But they were competitive and wound up winning the consolation championship. “The girls played well,” Stonebrink said. “We almost made it to the championship bracket. Relegated to the consolation bracket, the girls dominated and won.” PHS went 2-2 in pool play. The Horns opened the tournament by falling to Div. II Tucson Sahuaro, which entered with an 8-3 record, 2627, 23-25. “We were in a tough pool against a tough team,” Stonebrink said. “We started off slow, as their hitters dominated, and we were unable to get on track enough to run our offense. We fell behind by 10 points, but then began to pass well and run our offense. We mounted a huge comeback, and finally caught them at 24. We held game point at 25-24, and again at 26-26, but couldn’t quite complete the comeback, and we lost. “The second set saw the bottom

Horns regroup in 4th quarter, score 4 TDs From page 1B go, either thinking it would go into the end zone for a touchback or that they’d get the ball wherever the Horns downed it. Chapman tacked on a 29-yard run with 6:31 remaining and Trevor Anderson capped the scoring on a 7-yard run with 1:47 on the clock after Globe junior quarterback Joseph Burk raced 52 yards to pay dirt with 4:25 unplayed. Sarnowski also returned a punt 60 yards for a touchdown 1:30 later to make it 34-0. But the senior left with a hip injury, which isn’t serious, according to Swartwood. Sarnowski had 158 all-purpose yards, catching two passes for 39 yards and returning three punts for 119 yards. Chapman had 291 all-purpose yards, returning three kicks/punts for 36 yards. Burk, who ran 16 times for 127 yards, was eight of 20 for 66 yards, one TD and two interceptions passing. Harpe picked him off in the first quarter to set up Chapman’s 12-yard scoring run. Barry also had an interception. While the Longhorns were running 39 times for 347 yards and amassing 422 yards of total offense, the Tigers were busy offensively, as well. Globe ran 44 times for 283 yards. Burk and big sophomore Nicholas Silva led the way, rushing for two TDs apiece. Silva rumbled for 135 yards on 18 carries. He broke several tackles on a 40-yard touchdown run with 1:38 to play in the third quarter that pulled the Tigers within 41-27. Globe had three turnovers. In addition to the two interceptions, the Tigers also lost one of their three fumbles. Payson had two turnovers, losing two of its three fumbles. PHS was penalized seven times for 60 yards. Brodie Dalle Nogare had 103 all-purpose yards for Globe. He had 84 yards on seven kick/punt returns and caught four passes for 23 yards, including a 13-yard TD pass from Burk to open the thirdquarter scoring. Swartwood was thrilled with the offensive production, but concerned with the defensive performance. It is the most points allowed in a Payson win in

ure out a way to keep them focused in the second half.” But the Longhorns regrouped to score four TDs in the final quarter. “I was pleased to see them late third quarter and throughout the fourth quarter figure it out,” Swartwood said. “They found that drive again. We called it heart and playing with pride. They came out and showed that at the end of the third quarter and throughout the fourth quarter.” The coach said he was happy to see his players overcome the loss of Sarnowski, one of the top receivers and defensive backs in the state. “We put up 30-something points with our run in the second half,” he said. “For us, that’s a huge deal

available records. It’s the first time the Longhorns have surrendered 30 or more points in a win since beating Blue Ridge 34-33 in double overtime in the 2008 Class 3A state championship game. The defense has simply not played as well in the second half as it has in the first half in several games this season and that was certainly the case against the Tigers, at least in the third quarter. “I’m not happy about the couple turnovers we had in the second half,” he said. “We came out in the third quarter and we had probably a good seven or eight minutes of just not being able to stop the run. We had mental mistakes like going offside and a fumble on a pitch where we hit the fullback’s head with it. I don’t know what it is. We’ve just got to fig-

to be able to put those points up in the second half, especially after Tyus goes down and we’ve got to pull him out. In the past we’ve been extremely deflated by injuries. But I thought it says a lot about these kids tonight, especially seeing your leader go down, already having your quarterback down and being able to push through and step up and find other people to make game-changing plays for us.” The Longhorns hope to build on this win when they visit 6-1 Snowflake on Friday.

Youngberg on the line a big positive for Longhorns’ offense From page 1B to game plan. Because we can put him out there and assume that they’re going to run away from him.” He alternated between defensive end and linebacker much of the season. But the coaching staff

recently decided that end, where he’s played for years, is where he needs to be. “He’s been really flexible and moved back to that spot,” Swartwood said. “We think we’ll probably be leaving him there.” Flexible is the perfect word to describe Youngberg. Not only has

he moved around on defense, he also transitioned to a new position on offense in an effort to help the team. He started the season at tight end but has started at right tackle the last six weeks because injuries have decimated the offensive line. “It’s not glorious to play line,”

Swartwood said. “And a guy like Will switching from tight end to tackle shows a huge commitment to the team. This kid is a team player. He’s willing to go anywhere that the team needs him. He’s bought into it and he’s bought into it fully.” The move has been a big positive for the offense. “A kid who’s 6-5, 235 and running pretty fast, that’s a great lead blocker,” Swartwood said. “Will’s one of the guys we look for huge blocks from. We call a lot of counters with him pulling and blocking out.” It wasn’t easy for Swartwood to lose a red zone target like Youngberg with his ability to catch high passes over the heads of shorter defenders. But moving him from tight end was simply something that had to be done. “He’s able to high point the ball and just come down with it,” the coach said. “And he’s a hell of a lead blocker from a tight end position. So it was pretty tough to move him. “But, at the same time, it was an easy decision because it was the right thing for the team 100

percent. He’s the largest lineman we have. He’s the largest kid on the team. At that time in the season, our line was suffering and we were not able to block very well against our scout defense. “Putting him in there is just a huge body and we don’t have to double-team off with our tight end. He can take a guy, push him into the linebacker and get us kind of two blocks from that one position when he decides to be a man and go out there and play like a man child.” Swartwood said the staff occasionally has to rile him up in an effort to bring out the best performance. “Sometimes he forgets how big he is and how fast and how strong he is,” the coach said. “And sometimes we tell Will, ‘we’ve got to tick you off before the game. We’ve got to do something to make you mad; something that makes you go out there and just play intense and play aggressive and just drive people and be the best lineman on the field, be the best player on the field. And he’s starting to develop that. It’s just baby steps at this point.”

Youngberg said he agreed to switch from tight end but it wasn’t easy, at first. “It was kind of frustrating for a little bit,” he said. “But I think it’s really strengthened our line. We’ve all started working together now. So it was better.” Although he’s enjoying helping open holes for running backs like Wyatt Chapman, who rushed for 255 yards and five touchdowns in last week’s rout of Globe, his first love is playing defense. “It’s fun,” he said. “I get to hit people.” He hopes to continue his career at the college level. “I’ve got some letters from some bigger schools like NAU and San Diego State,” he said. “But mostly (the letters have been from) small NAIA schools. I still want to see if I can get some bigger schools.” Swartwood said Youngberg certainly has the size, quickness and ability to excel at the next level if he applies himself. “Will can play like a man and be the best player in the state at times,” the coach said. “But he’s got to make a 100 percent effort every single play and come with it. If he does that, I don’t feel there’s any tackles, tight ends or defensive ends, for that matter, that are better than him in our division, easily. “I expect him to do that. It’s hard to stay 100 percent focused and go 100 percent on every single play without losing any of your focus. Once he figures out how to do that, he’s going to be a force to be reckoned with and hard to stop.”

Blind runner making strides at PHS BY

KEITH MORRIS

ROUNDUP SPORTS EDITOR

Keith Morris/Roundup

Octavio Valenzuela (left) is enjoying his experience on the cross country team.

It’s pretty easy to pick out Octavio Valenzuela in a race. He’s the one with the sunglasses on, even when it isn’t a particularly sunny day. The Payson High sophomore cross country runner wears the shades because he is legally blind and his eyes are sensitive to the sun because of the aniridia he was born with, which is a congenial defect of the iris. But it hasn’t stopped him from being a big part of the Longhorns team. “He’s a first-year runner but he’s running real well right now,” said Payson coach Jonathan Ball. “So I think it’s pretty cool that he’s even out here and running, too. It’s a good thing.” He has 20/200 vision, meaning he sees much better with one eye than the other. The condition makes life challenging for the 16year-old. “I can see like 20 feet in front of me,” he said. “When it gets farther away it gets blurry to me and I can’t see it.” He says he’d like to play soccer, but doesn’t because of his limited vision. But running is something he figured he could give a try. So he went out for the track team as a freshman last spring. “I was in the mile and sometimes the twomile,” he said. “I won a medal for third place in the mile at our freshman/sophomore meet.” He finished that race in 5 minutes and 30 seconds. He said earning the medal reinforced that the training he was doing was paying off. “I felt really good afterwards,” Valenzuela said. “I was really proud of myself for going out there and getting it.”

It’s about you. It’s about time.

He’d like to better his time next spring. “My goal is to improve on my time in the mile and possibly get another medal,” Valenzuela said. The success he enjoyed on the track, as well as the encouragement from Ball and his friend and classmate, Alonzo Cohen, led him to go out for the cross country team. “When he took third in the freshman/sophomore meet, I was like, ‘Oh, you’ve got to run cross country with us,’” Ball said. Valenzuela has made great strides in his running this fall. He’s cut his time from 23 minutes in his first race to 19:51 in a top-30 finish in the Four Corners Invitational at Buffalo Park in Flagstaff on Sept. 21. “I was surprised by (the improvement),” he said. “The training and pushing myself to go for it (are the reasons I’ve improved).” Valenzuela then finished in the top-third in the field (58th) at the Chandler Valley Christian Invitational on Sept. 25. His teammates have been impressed with Valenzuela’s dedication. “I think it’s truly inspiring that he keeps going and works as hard as all of us,” said junior Erin Huffman. “He’s an incredible athlete and has come really far this season. It’s his first year and he’s really good. The fact that he can’t see well could be used as an excuse to hold back, but he doesn’t. He keeps going.” Valenzuela wants to keep cutting his time. Continuing on through tiring runs with the goal of improving is one of the biggest aspects of the sport his teammates and coach have helped him with. “They’ve been a big help, giving me tips on how to keep going,” he said. “It’s tiring, but I like deal with it and just try to improve.”

from the setter’s spot, the team hit a spectacular .243,” he said. “Selena Shill was on the whole tournament, hitting .350. Emmee Ashby’s 40 kills led the team, and she hit .318. Jade Holland pitched in a .208, Tessa Hintze also hit .208, and Sara Novack hit .190.” Emmee Ashby led the team in serving efficiency, and Kelsee Stonebrink was tops in aces (17), and service winners (57). Shealea Garza “also served very well,” the coach said. Ashby led the team with four blocks and three block assists. Creighton tallied 132 assists. Kaylee Byers led the team with 46 digs and Klara Sorensen was the servereceive efficiency leader. PHS was scheduled to travel to Flagstaff for a “huge” match with Coconino on Monday before playing host to Show Low tonight at 6:30. “We are No. 16 and they are right ahead of us at No. 15,” Stonebrink said of Coconino and the Div. III power rankings. “A win would enable us to leapfrog them, and perhaps one or two other teams. “We beat them in a regular match 3-2. They are quite good, and it should be a dogfight. Winning this would help our state chances immensely.”

No. 2 seed. The Longhorns were 4-0 in bracket play, beating Nogales 25-17, 25-19 for the consolation crown. They opened bracket action by beating Nogales, No. 7 in the Div . III power rankings, 27-26, 25-18. “After Kelsee Stonebrink’s serving forged a 6-1 lead, we probably got overconfident, and Nogales crept back into it,” the coach said. “They slowly fought back to tie it, and later took a 20-15 lead. We woke up in time to force overtime, and with the score set point for both teams at 26-26, Shealea Garza served an ace to win it. The second set was much easier.” PHS then rolled past Div. II Sierra Vista Buena 25-12, 25-18 before beating Div. III Tucson Pueblo 25-15, 2522. That sent the Longhorns to the championship match to face a Nogales team that emerged from the losers bracket again. Payson controlled the match again. “We were able to play well and handle Nogales with little problem,” Stonebrink said. The Longhorns hit well all tournament. “Thanks to Mckenzie Creighton’s solid work at setter, and hitting .422
