Advocates to bring concerns to council By TRACEY COMPTON tcompton@rentonreporter.com
Renton residents have come together to form an advocacy group that will bring citizens’ concerns to the Renton City Council and other city officials. Formed at the urging of City Council member Greg Taylor and members of the public, the group will focus on the downtown library renovation and other city projects, said Beth Asher, a group member who will research issues. This new advocacy group vows to keep watch on the City of Renton and the King County Library System’s actions concerning libraries, but that’s not all it plans to do. “There are more issues of concern in Renton than the library, and we want to provide a platform for citizens to communicate with the city about them,” wrote Asher in an email. “However, the library renovation will be an ongoing project for us.” The advocacy group seeks to act like an ombudsman but provide residents with a place to take their concerns where they’ll The contact be listened to and helped, Asher said. To get in contact with the citizens adShe will help to research convocacy group, email Beth Asher at betha@ cerns and distribute information mittenthal.com. creating “a forum and a positive means for the city and its residents to communicate.” They have plans to become a non-profit organization. So far, some members have experience in project management, change management, architecture and real estate. “All of us are committed to making our city a better place to live,” Asher said. “We’ll tackle whatever Renton residents bring to our table and research and help to the best of our abilities.” One of the issues that sparked the group’s creation was the vote on the downtown library site location. To Asher, it was clear that the majority of voters that secured the site over the Cedar River was not just a minority voice in the city, as some City Council members stated, she said. Seeing an opportunity to connect council with citizens, the group was formed with this in mind. All of the members have other full-time jobs aside from this project, but Asher says they hope to create a large working group.

Changes at top of bank Longtime community bank to get new CEO; Victor Karpiak to still lead the bank’s holding company By DEAN A. RADFORD dradford@rentonreporter.com
Thirty five years ago, Victor Karpiak started his banking career in Renton in a small office shared with two others – including the CEO – lending
money to the people of Renton to buy homes. The assets of what was then known as First Savings and Loan Association of Renton totaled about $40 million and were owned by the depositors. Today, the bank is First Savings Bank Northwest and those assets – mostly the value of the real-estate loans – total about $1 billion, down from a high of about $1.3 billion. “When I was a loan officer, we did loans for the grandparents and then the kids would come along and then all of a sudden you saw generation after [ more karpiak page 11 ]

Fry’s settles harassment suit for 2.3M Fry’s Electronics agreed to pay $2.3 million and to implement preventative measures to settle a sexual harassment and retaliation lawsuit brought by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), according to a consent decree filed by the agency. The EEOC had charged the company with harassing a young sales associate at its Renton store and firing a supervisor for standing up for her, according to an agency press release. “This was my first job, and I just wanted the harassment to
stop. It really meant a lot to have my supervisor speak out for me, and it was horrifying to see him lose his job over it,” said America Rios, the salesperson, in the press release. “I’m elated and relieved by the settlement, for Ka Lam’s sake as much as for mine.” In the release EEOC General Counsel P. David Lopez said “this seven-figure settlement, among the highest EEOC settlements ever on a per-claimant basis, follows courtordered sanctions including a penalty of $100,000 due to Fry’s abusive discovery tactics which included
destroying relevant evidence, wrongfully withholding evidence, and filing frivolous motions.” “The case should send a clear message that sexual harassment of vulnerable employees remains a serious problem in this country, as is employer retaliation against those who report harassment,” he said. According to the federal agency’s lawsuit, an assistant store manager at the Renton Fry’s harassed Rios, the 20-year-old sales associate, frequently sending her sexually charged text messages and inviting her to his house to drink, according
to the press release. After her direct supervisor Ka Lam reported the harassment to Fry’s legal department, the company fired Lam. He was told that his termination was due to a decline in his performance despite the fact that his work was consistently commended. Sexual harassment and retaliation for complaining about it violate Title VII of Civil Rights Act of 1964. After attempting to reach a voluntary settlement through conciliation, the EEOC filed the lawsuit in U.S. District Court for the District of Washington.

Woman robs bank so she can go to jail A 23-year-old Renton woman got her wish Tuesday afternoon - a trip to the jail. The woman walked into the Key Bank in the Highlands at 4:22 p.m. and demanded money from a teller, according to Renton Police. After taking the money, the woman told bank employees that she would wait outside for police. Officers found the woman and the bank’s manager waiting outside the building. Officers took the woman into custody without a struggle. She told detectives she robbed the bank in hopes to going to jail. The case was to go to the King County Prosecuting Attorneys Office for a decision on charges. Police didn’t specify a reason why she wanted to go to jail.

Nearly 15,000 kids head back to school By TRACEY COMPTON tcompton@rentonreporter.com
Backpack in tow, hand in hand with a parent, some students made their way to classes Tuesday for the first time ever. They filed out of school buses, posed for pictures in front of parents and lined up to enter classrooms. About 14,700 students, in addition to 120 new teachers, headed back to school in Renton Tuesday. It is the first year that Honey Dew Elementary in the Highlands re-opened as a full kindergarten through fifthgrade school. Previously, the school was used to teach kindergarten students from three district elementary schools while those schools were rebuilt. The School Board has been preparing to open the school for four years and approved boundary changes in December 2010. Students who attend Honey Dew live in neighborhoods around the school, so walk to school.
Students enter Honey Dew Elementary School for their first day of classes. This is the first time the school has opened as a full kindergarten through fifth-grade school in about 20 years. renton school district

Renton clothing boutique, C’est la Vie at The Landing, will present the latest fall fashions in a fashion show event on Sept. 13. The show will benefit Domestic Abuse Women’s Network or DAWN. “The idea behind the fashion show is to teach fashion, not just show the fashion,” wrote Gabriela Sawrey, DAWN event organizer. “Styles and different options to mix and match will be explained and demonstrated during the show.” Doors open at 5 p.m. and the show starts at 6 p.m. at the shop, 911 N. 10th Pl. The clothes are from local and popular designers, some of whom have given back to the community from planting trees to donating to breast cancer research. The models for the show are every day women who live and work in the Renton area, C’est la Vie customers,
said Sawrey. The target age group for the show is women age 30 to 65, who like to wear fun and unique fashions. C’est la Vie owner Colleen Bowman got the idea to do the show when she was approached by DAWN to donate an item for the organization’s “An Evening of Promise” fundraiser. Bowman wanted to do something bigger and so the idea for a fashion show was hatched. Although DAWN provides services for all of South King County, in 2011 the group served more than 950 people in Renton alone. In addition to the fashion show, there will be wine and chocolate tasting, appetizers, SWAG bags and a raffle of merchandise from other Landing merchants. Tickets are $15 per person and reservations can be made through gabriela@ dawnonline.org.

enton FilmFrenzy 5 is just weeks away, when filmmakers find just the right spot in the city to tell their stories. In telling those stories, filmmakers are also bringing what makes Renton special to a much broader audience. Renton is indeed finding its place in a cultural industry – filmmaking – through FilmFrenzy but also through its partnership with the Seattle International Film Festival. SIFF will return for a third season next year at the Renton IKEA Performing Arts Center, a boost to the city’s cultural evolution. That evolution deserves a Darwinian boost from our artists – take note novice filmmakers and professional alike and register your teams before the Oct. 1 deadline. And let us not forget that every film deserves an audience, the age-old endeavor of putting “butts in the seats.” A bit crude, but theatrical in making its point. So mark Oct. 22 and Oct. 23 on your calendars. The first date is the screening of all FilmFrenzy entries at the Renton Civic Theatre. The second is the Curvee Awards gala at IPAC. City officials, commissions, private institutions like the Renton Civic Theatre and the Renton Historical Society are committed to growing the cultural arts offerings in Renton. Whenever possible, lend them support and find a place in one of their seats.

This is in response to Kal Lambert’s letter to the editor of Aug. 31, “A library test of wills.” Why are our mayor and four council members still fighting citizen involvement in the Cedar River Library renovation? We very definitely should have the same goals at this point. We have a vast body of documents and have researched the issues. We would be more than willing to help the city exercise oversight and get two state-of-the-art libraries within budget. It’s time to start communicating with residents. It’s time for transparency. It’s more than time for those of us who live in Renton to see our council openly representing our best interests rather than the interests of KCLS. We’re paying $5 million in property taxes to KCLS, and in addition paying for the renovation and a new Highlands Library. We’ve done our homework, and deserve to be a part of the process. We represent a 76 percent voting majority that is VERY CONCERNED that the mayor and council get it right this time. Why not give citizens a voice and a share the library renovation? I also agree that the King County Council needs to step in and make KCLS Board membership an elected position so that members will be responsible and responsive to the public.

SBA provides opportunities for Hispanic-owned businesses One of the Small Business Administration’s top priorities is to provide access and opportunity to small business owners in traditionally underserved communities. Nationwide, SBA has supported $13.5 billion in lending to underserved small businesses since 2009. And, SBA has supported $100.3 billion in federal government contracting dollars to small disadvantaged firms since 2009. Locally, SBA has backed nearly $58 million in loans to Hispanic owned businesses in Washington state and Northern Idaho since 2009. As we see commercial lending improve across the country, we recognize there’s more work to be done and we know that challenges still exist. That’s why SBA is working hard to fill the gaps that remain in the market place and ensure that small business owners in underserved communities are aware of the assistance available to help them grow their businesses and create jobs. Minority-owned businesses are some of the fastest growing segments of the economy, with Hispanic-owned, small businesses leading all other demographics. Sept. 15 marks the start of Hispanic Heritage Month in America. At the SBA, we’ve joined forces with the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (USHCC) to help support thousands of Hispanic small businesses and entrepreneurs.

participation in SBA programs, including: • Loan programs and access to capital initiatives; • Government contracting programs like the 8(a) program and the Women-Owned Small Program; • Up-to-date information and access to SBA’s extensive resource partner network; and • International trade opportunities to achieve the goals of the President’s National Export Initiative. In combining our efforts, we will work to increase lending to Hispanic small businesses; increase awareness of SBA programs and services among Hispanic-owned small businesses; increase participation of small Hispanic-owned businesses in SBA’s procurement programs, with a focus on women and veterans; and increase trade opportunities for small Hispanic-owned businesses. Take advantage of the benefits of this partnership. The SBA team at the Seattle District Office and Spokane Branch Office stands ready, willing and able to help your small business emerge from the recession stronger and more competitive than before. When small businesses succeed, America succeeds. And we are committed to supporting our nation’s entrepreneurs. Working together, we can build growing vibrant communities, get people back to work and ensure that we have a 21st century American economy that’s built to last.

Man loses fight with police dog
A Bellevue man was arrested for assault after fighting
with his girlfriend Aug. 27. Police were called to the 1200 block of Edmonds Ave near McKnight Middle School at 6:30 p.m. when a witness saw a man push a woman to the ground and drag her across the street. Officers arrived and saw the two walking down the street. The man fled when he saw the police car. A K9 unit tracked him to some nearby sticker bushes. The suspect suffered dog bites on his legs as he kicked the police dog away and grabbed its ears. He was arrested for assault.
Three caught swimming after hours at Henry Moses pool A Renton man and woman, plus a Maple Valley man were arrested after swimming in the Henry Moses Aquatic Center after hours and trying to evade police Aug. 27. Police arrived at the center at about 5 a.m. after a janitor heard splashing and voices in the pool. When the officers turned on flashlights, the three fled the area and got in a car as officers told them to stop. They attempted the drive away, but had to stop at a dead end. Police finally corralled the vehicle in the parking lot.

Do baby teeth really matter?
YES – they matter a lot! Decayed or decaying baby teeth can potentially represent active infection in the mouth. Anytime there is infection in the body or mouth, it requires immediate attention by a physician or dentist, respectively. Long term, if baby teeth are left to rot, fall out, or get extracted, there is greater potential for permanent teeth to grow in and shift requiring future orthodontic care.

Woman hides under blanket, refuses treatment at hospital A Renton woman was arrested for interfering with a health-care facility Aug. 27. Police arrived at Valley Medical Center to find the 31-year-old woman unresponsive and unwilling to cooperate with doctors. The woman showed up at the hospital and claimed she was unable to walk due to severe neck pain. She promptly curled up in a ball on the bed, refusing to move and refusing any treatment. She yelled nonsense words at the doctors trying to help her. When police officers showed up, they found the woman covered completely with a blanket. She continued to yell and talk in incomplete thoughts and refuse to allow anyone to help her. After several more warnings, police tried to arrest the woman, but her body went limp and she started to yell “abuse!” Officers waited for an ambulance to transport her. She later identified herself as a Sovereign Citizen, a group which believes they answer only to common law and not federal or state laws.

Swimming beaches, pool close for summer A sign that summer has come and gone are empty beaches and no activity at the Henry Moses Aquatic Center in Renton. The water park and the beaches at Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park and Kennydale Beach Park are now closed for the season, following the Labor Day weekend. The beaches and the aquatic center will reopen next June. The beaches are no longer staffed by lifeguards
and the City of Renton discourages any swimming there beyond the scheduled season. Up next for the Henry Moses Aquatic Center is maintenance. A flurry of cleaning of pools, chairs and other equipment will commence now that the swim season is over. Lifeguard towers are taken down for the season. City staff reports that it was a very average summer season in terms of attendance at the park.

50-hour, FilmFrenzy V competition is Oct. 5-7 in Renton open. The weekend of Oct. 5-7, they will write, film and edit their four-minute films. The films are entirely shot in Renton and the filmmakers must include an iconic image of Renton in the film and dialogue that speaks about the city. The teams will compete for $1,700 in prize money and a Curvee award. The winner of the Best Picture Curvee winner will screen at the Seattle International Film Festival in Renton in May. “The Renton FilmFrenzy continues to expand and has become an integral part of the growing and strong Renton arts community,” said Mayor Denis Law, thanks to the partnerships with SIFF, Reel
Grrls, theFilmSchool, area filmmaking programs and the Renton Municipal Arts Commission. A team of judges will pick the winning films. All films will screen during the FilmFrenzy Screening on Oct. 22 at the Renton Civic Theatre. Last year was the first time that all films were screened; Renton’s economic development director called the screenings “a tremendous success.” “We had a full house in a cool, historic venue and the audience voted for their favorite film,” said Suzanne Dale Estey. The winning filmmakers received a special Curvee Award. The next night, Oct. 23, is the Curvee Awards at the Renton IKEA Performing Arts Center,
where the top films will be shown and the Curvee Awards presented. The Renton Reporter will again host the online voting for the People’s Choice Award, which will be presented to the winner at a City Council meeting in November. Dale Estey pointed to the importance of Renton’s relationship with SIFF. “Renton’s position as a venue for the Seattle International Film Festival is opening new doors on a year-round basis, and helping to highlight the community as a thriving, creative hub for arts and culture, including film,” she said. Here are the details: • Filmmakers can enter their films in one of two divisions: Student Division (high school and below) and Open Division. There

generation making loans,” he said. In those 35 years Karpiak went from loan officer to CEO and president of the savings bank and chairman of the bank’s board of directors and to CEO of the bank’s publicly traded holding company, First Financial Northwest, and chairman of its board. Karpiak and the bank has weathered economic downturns and most daunting, the Great Recession that still casts a pall over the economy and the housing market. And he’s come to know activist investor Joseph Stilwell, who is trying to get Karpiak off the board and maybe even sell the bank. Karpiak, who is 58, along with the board have devised a succession plan that will ensure the bank has a strong executive team in place when he retires, possibly in 2014 when he’s 60. The succession plan has been in the works for about two years that includes splitting Karpiak’s executive duties. “I wanted to make sure the bank “I wanted to make gets top focus in anything we do,” he sure the bank said, which includes continuing to gets top focus in move forward with improving the anything we do.” bank’s financial performance. First Savings Bank Significantly, in August First Northwest CEO Victor Financial Northwest announced that Karpiak Karpiak will retire as CEO and president of the savings bank, replaced by California banker Joe Kiley. Kiley, 56, with more than 20 years of banking experience in California, will run the day-to-day operations of the bank. Kiley will start the job on Sept. 17, the day that Karpiak’s bank retirement becomes effective. However, Karpiak will remain as CEO of First Financial Northwest and chairman of the holding company’s board. He will focus on bank regulations and on shareholder relations, including with Stilwell and a lawsuit that could lead to Karpiak’s ouster from the board. He’ll also help with Kiley’s succession. Another executive position also was split – the chief lending and credit administration officer. Herman L. Robinson, who held that job, is now the bank’s chief credit officer and Simon Soh is chief lending officer. The management changes have nothing to do with Stilwell’s efforts to place his own person on the holding company’s board, Karpiak said, but they will help the bank comply with orders from regulators to improve the knowledge and expertise of the bank’s management and board of directors. Stilwell, who manages investment funds in New York, became a player in the holding company when he purchased about 8 percent of its stock. According to Karpiak and media reports, he is known for buying a community bank’s stock, then pushing for its sale. Stilwell has called for Karpiak’s ouster, claiming he’s incompetent, and filed a lawsuit over a disputed shareholder election in which Karpiak kept his seat on the holding company board by beating Spencer Schneider, Stilwell’s candidate. The lawsuit will now go to trial. Schneider had been appointed to the board, but then
Karpiak points out that savings bank has posted a profit for the last eight quarters. The bank, whose business is primarily real-estate loans, “did a pretty good job” surviving “the greatest downturn in the housing market in history,” he said. The bank lost money because of the decline in home values – and thus the value of its assets, its loans – during the Great Recession, he said. Also counted against the bank’s bottom line was the $16 million in stock that funds the First Financial Northwest Foundation. The foundation works with the Renton Community Foundation to award grants throughout the community. Karpiak said the board was “receptive” to Stilwell’s ideas of paying dividends and buying back company stock. Then Stilwell suggested selling the company. The board was willing to consider a sale, but it had to be within the right price range, Karpiak said. “Right now, no one is buying any bank,” Karpiak said and, besides, there is no reason financially to sell the company. “We don’t understand what is his real motive,” Karpiak said of Stilwell. But Karpiak points out that money is made in selling banks, not buying them.

resigned and started a “proxy” battle to get back on the board. Schneider maintains that his millions of votes weren’t counted, but Karpiak points out an inspector of elections ruled that no ballots were actually cast for Schneider even though Schneider had proxies. Before he resigned, Schneider offered three suggestions: remove the photos of board directors and executives from the stairwell leading to the bank’s upper floor, eliminate the position of director emeritus and serve hard candy instead of cookies at the annual meeting. The photos remain; the board is seeking legal advice on eliminating the director emeritus position. Regarding the hard candy vs. cookies: “That’s ridiculous,” Karpiak said. In his letter of resignation on Feb. 16, Schneider wrote the board and management lost more than $130 million in shareholder money and was under regulatory orders. “So, when I agreed to come on the board, I did it with the assumption that management and the board wanted to turn over a new leaf and put the interests of the bank and its shareholders first,” he wrote. “But after just five weeks, I see that there has been no change of mind.” He wrote that the three ideas were “symbolic that the board is headed in a new direction.”

She married Bradford Lenius in 1927 and together they had eight children, Brad, Beverly, Bernard, Bobby, Barbara, Bonnie, Burton and Byron. They moved to the Seattle area in 1942 and there she remained until 2012. Verneice was an avid gardener and crocheted countless afghans and doilies. In addition, she quilted, baked, canned, and crafted and helped support her family by cleaning homes. One of Verneice’s longtime passions was serving at the Renton Senior Center.

With several talented returners, Hazen girls hoping to take the next step to state
By ADAM McFADDEN amcfadden@rentonreporter.com
Both off the field and on, last year’s Hazen girls soccer team knew heartache better than most. On the field, the team lost to Kelso on a goal with 49 seconds left in the bi-district tournament, just one game short of state. “As a program, it was a sour note on a pretty darn good year,” said Hazen coach Ken Matthews. “Everybody was pretty well ready to get started this year.” Off the field, the team lost Hasoccer zen custodian and long-time superfan Joe Dahl and Lora Michaud, long-time supporter and mother of a Hazen player, during the season. Now with an offseason to process it, Matthews said it will only make the team better. “It’s still on the forefront of our brains, but it’s there in a positive way because of what it did for us,” he said. “It’s just a part of us now.” The key on the field this year will be attacking mid Dee Dee Green. Green has committed to play defender for the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville next year, but Matthews needed her presence in the middle to fit this year’s Hazen

Her willingness to move set the tone for the rest of the team. “We’ve moved some good soccer players around in positions they haven’t played before,” he said. “And that’s our biggest question mark right now.”
Matthews said Green not only helps the team with her talent but her mentality as well. “She’s a very good soccer player, but what she brings to our team is kind of that warrior mentality,” Matthews said. “Sometimes it’s very

difficult to find high school teams with that and she brings it for us.” Cameron Devereux will replace all-state goalkeeper Priscilla Yu. “She’s paid her dues, she pushed Priscilla so hard last year,” Matthews said. “I’ve always had a lot of confidence in her and the girls really have a lot of confidence in her too.” Yu, Sarah Schoville and Marina Vaughn highlight a talented group of graduating seniors, but Matthews is confident in the returning players. On defense, all-league juniors Gabby Brower and Courtney Kiteley are back. All-league juniors Brianne Sherin and Chelsea Delgado also return to help lead the offense. Sherin led the league in goals last year. Hazen also has two all-league juniors back in the midfield, in Cindy Hanson and Melissa Carney. Three freshmen made the team, forward Erin Zetterberg, midfielder Nicole Anderson and defender Madi Kaiser. The team will get tested early and often. Hazen faces Auburn Mountainview (Thursday night, results not available by press time), Fife, Kennedy (twice) and Eastside Catholic, all are ranked among the top 10 in their respective classifications. “We’re going to find out really quickly how good we are compared to where we need to be to get to state,” Matthews said.

“Estate Plan” is a term used to describe a strategy for transfer of assets to family members and other beneficiaries after death. The size and complexity of the estate, as well as your preferences will dictate the documents to include. In some cases, a Will or a Revocable Living Trust will be the foundation of the plan. Many married couples should have a Community Property Agreement to avoid probate on the first death. Other documents may include a Health Care Directive, Power of Attorney and other forms of beneficiary designations. Protect your right to control the disposition of your assets.

Behind strong line led by Moorhead, Hazen looking for playoffs By ADAM McFADDEN amcfadden@rentonreporter.com
With a stout, experienced offensive line, the Hazen football team is hoping to break even more new ground for the program this year. Last year the team went 7-3, making it to state for the first time since 1993. This year the bulk of the offensive line is back, which is essential for the run-based, Wing-T offense the Highlanders run. “It’s the strength of this team and we knew it all along,” said Hazen coach Drew Oliver. “Having five seniors on that line does us really well. It fits our style since we’re pretty much a grind-it-out team.”
The line features seniors Cody Moorhead, Jeremy football Hazlett, Bryce Sowder, Tyler Wicks, Drew Kelly and Dom Orsillo. Moorhead is a four-year starter and already has three Division I offers. The only concern will be keeping the linemen fresh. Most of them play on defense, too, and Oliver said experienced depth is lacking right now. “They were dog tired after Friday’s game,” he said. Hazen opened the season with a 37-28 win against Franklin Pierce. The Highlanders trailed going into the fourth quar-
preview
ter but outscored Franklin Pierce 17-0 to take the win. “It was a very shaky start, but they were gritty and made the adjustments we needed,” Oliver said. Junior Mason Jacobs rushed for 111 yards and three touchdowns in the game and will be vital to the rushing attack. Fullback Joe Glaefke will also play a big role. Oliver said of Glaefke, “He’s a big battering-ram type of guy.” The team will also get a boost from
Tony Nipert returning at quarterback. The senior missed most of the second half of last season with an injury. Senior Zach Cable is a transfer from Georgia and will step into the linebacker spot, playing as the captain of the defense on the field. “It’s definitely a goal of ours to continue to play in November and have meaningful games,” Oliver said. “That’s always our goal going out. It’s just a matter of how we respond to things in season.”
Liberty Patriots football at a glance Quote of note: “We’re not the biggest team, we don’t have the most guys and not a ton of depth, but they have great team chemistry and they know how to work hard.” - Liberty coach Steve Valach Returning starters: Tynan Gilmore (DB/WR) Alex Batali (LB/RB)
Nick Short (DE/OL) Scott Dean (DB/WR) Sam Dodt (DB/WR)
Dalton Darlington (DT/OL)

Seahawks preview
Week 1 Seattle Seahawks (7-9) at Arizona Cardinals (8-8), Sunday, 1:25 p.m. on FOX
Seahawks storylines: • Running back Marshawn Lynch is in danger of missing season opener because of back spasms. He missed practice Monday and hasn’t played since the second preseason game. Rookie Robert Turbin would start in Lynch’s place. Turbin impressed against the Chiefs in the third preseason game by rushing 14 times for 93 yards and a touchdown. • Seattle released tight end Kellen Winslow, who many thought had a chance to lead the team in receptions this season. Expect third-year player Anthony McCoy to step up and fill some of the receiving gap left by Winslow. The team also signed Evan Moore, who was earlier released by Cleveland. McCoy and Moore are solid, but they’ve combined for just 75 career receptions - the same amount Winslow had in 2011 alone. If the team’s offensive line can avoid the onslaught of injuries it suffered last year, starter Zach Miller could spend less time blocking and more time catching passes. Miller averaged 56.5 receptions per season in Oakland, so he can definitely fill that role. Seattle will get to keep the conditional
Last week: Liberty struggled to a 41-14 loss against Eastside Catholic Friday night. The Patriots (0-1) got on the board with 14 points in the fourth quarter, but the Crusaders had built a 35-0 lead through three quarters. See these teams in action: Hazen and Liberty face off at Liberty, Friday night at 7 p.m.
@ seventh round pick they sent to Tampa Bay in the Winslow trade. • Wide receiver Golden Tate injured his knee in the team’s preseason finale and will likely miss at least two weeks. • Offensive lineman James Carpenter returned to practice Monday. He started eight games at right tackle last season. • The Seahawks added WR Jermaine Kearse, LB Korey Toomer, QB Josh Portis, WR Ricardo Lockette, T Edawn Coughman, G Rishaw Johnson and S Deshawn Shead to their practice squad.
Cardinals storylines: • Arizona’s offensive line is in trouble. The team has four linemen on injured reserve, including key players Levi Brown and Jeremy Bridges. • The Cardinals bring back nine starters on defense, plus linebacker O’Brien Schofield, who saw significant playing time last year. • QB John Skeleton is the team’s fourth starting quarterback in the past four years. He has a strong arm, yet battles with inaccuracy. • Running backs Beanie Wells and Ryan Williams are both healthy at the moment, but both has long injury histories. It’s uncertain how well they will be able to rush behind the team’s injury-ravaged offensive line.
