Celebrating Arizona’s high school seniors Lily Altavena, Katherine Fitzgerald, Katie Surma, Katelyn Reinhart, Uriel J. Garcia and Paulina Pineda Arizona Republic USA TODAY NETWORK

Because of COVID-19, Arizona’s high school seniors have missed out on many milestones — prom, yearbook signings and in-person farewells to friends and teachers.

But families and educators are making sure seniors still get at least some of the pomp and circumstance they deserve for graduation. It just looks a little diff erent this year.

Graduation ceremonies were held in driveways, along sidewalks and virtually. Yard signs allowed neighbors to cheer on grads. Instead of parties, there were car parades.

The Arizona Republic wanted to help celebrate our graduates as well. Here are a few we’d like you to meet:

Senior salute Additional profi les and names will be published in future Republic community editions. To see more photos and profi les of graduates, go to education. azcentral.com.

Inside, fi nd a partial roster of graduates.

Madison Palmer Miami High School, Miami | Plans: Grand Canyon University, medicine At Miami High, Madison Palmer played volleyball, basketball and softball. She was a letter winner in each sport for all four years of high school.

Madison said she is thankful for the support she’s received over the years.

“I’m grateful for the love and support of my family,” Madison said. “If it wasn’t for them and my teachers pushing me, I wouldn’t be where I am today.”

She will attend Grand Canyon University, and plans to major in premed.

“She has worked so hard and we are celebrating in every way we know how,” her mom, Cecilia Valles, said.

Dana Reyes-Deolarte Central High School, Phoenix | Plans: Grand Canyon University, nursing Dana Reyes-Deolarte is graduating from Central High School amid a health pandemic, but that doesn’t scare her.

Emergency personnel work to recover the bodies of two construction workers killed at the site of a trench collapse in Phoenix on July 23.

THOMAS HAWTHORNE/THE REPUBLIC

2 men killed in trench collapse Audrey Jensen Arizona Republic USA TODAY NETWORK

Police identifi ed Alex Quaresma, 36, and Rudy Mori, 33, as the men who died when a trench collapsed at a housing sitea day earlier in Phoenix.

Their bodies were safely recovered 12 to 15 hours after the incident, Sgt. Mercedes Fortune, spokesperson for Phoenix police, said Friday.

Quaresma and Mori were buried in a trench while they were connecting a sewer line to a new home build near 107th and Missouri avenues, according to offi cials.

A Phoenix police offi cer tried to help

when he arrived, but offi cials said attempting to rescue the men would have resulted in more fatalities because of the weight of the compressed dirt.

Fire offi cials said crews would reconstruct the scene once the bodies were recovered.

Phoenix police were investigating and working with the Arizona Division of Occupational Safety and Health representatives, according to Fortune.

The Phoenix Fire Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Friday.

Offi cers were patrolling the area near State Route 143 and University Drive around 12:30 a.m. when they found the man with injuries “consistent with foul play,” a Phoenix police spokeswoman, Sgt. Ann Justus, wrote in a news re-

Fire Department personnel took the man to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Detectives on Saturday were working to determine what led up to the death.

WILD ALASKAN COMPANY

Wild-Caught Sustainable Seafood

The former Camel Square office building has been demolished and replaced by a new Phoenix Suns training facility along 44th Street north of Camelback Road.

A monthly seafood membership that delivers sustainably-sourced seafood to your doorstep.

JUSTIN TOUMBERLIN/THE REPUBLIC

Suns’ new practice facility in fi nal stages of completion Arizona Republic USA TODAY NETWORK

Jevon Carter is taking full advantage of having an opportunity to get up latenight shots on the practice courts in the Orlando Bubble.

“Every single day, every single day,” he said.

Carter and the Suns will be able to do the same thing inside their new 50,000square foot, state-of-the-art facility, which is in the fi nal stages of completion.

Team offi cials say that the $45-million structure will be completed by late August or early September. Team owner Robert Sarver had an initial Aug. 1 target date at the groundbreaking ceremony last November.

The Suns (26-39) are in Florida for the NBA restart, enjoying a practice setup that has two basketball courts, a training room and weight room nearby.

“It’s very similar to college workouts,” Suns All-Star guard Devin Booker said. “Usually in the NBA, on normal times, you lift individually with a trainer, but we’re doing a lot of circuit training, a lot of group training. It’s been very fun, man. A lot of personality in it. We have the music in there. Everybody’s supporting each other.”

In practice footage the league is providing the media, Booker is doing pullups with Deandre Ayton smiling and talking to him.

“Everybody has the same mindset, same mission, and that’s to get better,”

Booker continued. “These three-hour slot times that we get are very important for us. We don’t have much to do the rest of the day, so we’re locked in.”

The new practice facility under construction in Phoenix, on 44th Street just north of Camelback Road, also will have two basketball courts and private health and training amenities, along with offi ces for coaches, players and trainers for the Suns and WNBA’s Phoenix Mercury.

The Suns can experience the same camaraderie in the new practice facility, but with a view of Camelback Mountain, fi re pits, golf simulators and much more.

In the meantime, Monty Williams said the practice setup for the restart in Orlando is “somewhat like” what the Suns will have in their new facility.

“Everything is in close proximity,” Williams said. “The guys can go to the court, to the training room and to the weight room in a matter of seconds. So from that standpoint, it’s pretty effi cient. I think what the league has done, if everybody was honest about it, and cut the complaining out of it, I think everybody would admit that this is above expectations based on what you thought you were going to see when you fi rst got here. The setup, to me, is pretty cool.”

It’s all about the moves for 13-yearold Tyris.

Moves on the basketball court.

Moves on the dance fl oor.

“One thing you can always fi nd Tyris doing is dancing,” says Kayla, a child specifi c adoption recruiter with Aid to Adoption of Special Kids. “He is always practicing new moves and loves to show them off . That kid would do a dance battle against anybody.”

Tyris also likes to show new moves on the basketball court.

“One of his biggest dreams is to be a famous basketball player,” Kayla says, adding that Tyris would love to meet Stephen Curry, the superstar guard on the Golden State Warriors of the Nation-

al Basketball Association.

Tyris also wants to play youth football as soon as he can.

“He also has a creative side and enjoys drawing, arts and crafts, and building things,” Kayla says.

Tyris is heading to the 8th grade and looking forward to returning to class so that he can socialize with friends.

He would thrive as the only child in a single-parent or two-parent household.

“Tyris will need a family that is patient and consistent in a family structure with clear and consistent boundaries and consequences,” Kayla says.

“He will need a dedicated family that is willing to take the time to build a strong and loving bond.”

For more information on children eligible for adoption, call Aid to Adoption of Special Kids (AASK) at 602-9304900, or visit www.aask-az.org.

No-contact emissions testing

AR-GCI0444919-09

Your One Stop Scottsdale Community Healthcare and Compounding Pharmacy

Arizona vehicle owners age 65 and older must get their vehicles emissions tested as usual after a temporary waiver expired.

State offi cials had announced the waiver on March 26, when Arizona had 508 known COVID-19 cases and nine known deaths.

The waiver was intended to allow older Arizonans, who are at a higher risk of serious illness from COVID-19, to renew their registrations online to avoid exposure to the virus.

However, as Arizona on Saturday reported more than 3,700 new COVID-19 cases and the death toll during the pandemic has surpassed 3,000 people, the waiver is no longer an option.

The waiver expired May 31 and was only available for renewals that were due in March, April or May. The governor has no plans to reinstate the waiver because it was only meant as a temporary option, according to Patrick Ptak, a spokeperson for Gov. Doug Ducey.

Ptak said the waiver “was implemented as a short-term solution while additional health precautions could be put into place.”

All Arizonans now have the option of taking a no-contact emissions test.

Arizona residents with non-diesel vehicles can get a non-contact limited emissions test if they pay ahead of time online.

The no-contact limited emissions test is valid for one year, as opposed to two years with the standard emissions test.

Residents who choose this option won’t even need to roll their windows down.

The inspectors conduct the test by communicating with drivers through

their window, according to the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality’s website. Full instructions can be found at azdeq.gov/node/7170.

Caroline Oppleman, DEQ communications administrator, said the agency follows enhanced safety protocols and precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19 at testing stations. Those precautions include: i Daily temperature checks for employees. i Each technician testing vehicles wears a mask. i Technicians wash their gloved hands with a chlorine and water solution between each emissions test. i Stations are cleaned every morning, evening and throughout the day, as needed. i Emissions test inspectors follow physical distancing guidelines. The DEQ visits every station at least once per week to validate compliance with safety protocols.

Oppleman said residents at greater risk from the virus can ask any licensed driver they trust to take their vehicle in for emissions testing — the vehicle owner does not have to be present.

It’s about air quality Vehicle emissions testing is required in major metro areas that are not meeting federal air quality standards for ozone and other pollutants. In Arizona, testing is required in the Phoenix and Tucson areas.

Oppleman said clean air is essential to everyone’s health, now more than ever. Additionally, she said, ozone and particulate matter pollution can exacerbate breathing-related illnesses, respiratory and pulmonary issues.

“While there are several ways to avoid viruses, there are few ways to avoid poor air quality,” Oppleman said.

“Unfortunately, and to compound matters, our historically high ozone season is April through October.”

Greer adapts to college life in COVID-19 world Ex-Shadow Mtn. hoops star gets to work at Okla.

Dana Scott Arizona Republic USA TODAY NETWORK

Moving into a college dormitory can be exciting and nerve-racking for a freshman student living away from her family for the fi rst time.

The latter feeling could be heightened, especially for student-athletes entering desolate campuses this summer as COVID-19 continues its harrowing grip at every turn in life.

Oklahoma women's basketball freshman Heavenly Greer moved into the school's Headington Hall on July 18.

Greer was one of the Valley's top forwards along with The Republic's 201920 All-Arizona selections Alexandra Zelaya, Alyssa Brown and Kennedy Basham before Greer transferred to Ganesha High School (Pomona, California) in 2019.

Oklahoma basketball forward Heavenly Greer, left, holds up a "welcome home" sign standing beside her mother Vanessa Greer as Heavenly moves into Headington Hall on the university campus on Saturday. VANESSA GREER

The former Phoenix Shadow Mountain 6-foot-3 standout, Greer is focused on earning a psychology degree and playing in the WNBA after graduation.

being here will help me achieve not only my athletic goals but my academic goals, too," Greer said. "They have a great psychology program and that’s what I'm majoring in. As for basketball, I talked to our coach and told her my goal is to go to the WNBA and I feel like I will get the training here that I need to pursue that goal."

Before her fi rst day in the gym on campus, Greer and the incoming Sooner freshmen underwent coronavirus tests in addition to the battery of physical exams for the protocol to stay healthy and safe.

Greer and her teammates' training schedule is rigorous, with extra hurdles to clear as they attempt to build team chemistry to improve from their 12-18 record last season.

“Right now, I have morning workouts for about an hour and then get like three-hour break and we’re going for lifting," Greer said. "That’s about the schedule we have now but the coronavirus has not really aff ected my workout

schedule because I can go to the gym and pop shots. As long as I’m safe then that’s all that matters."

Still, Greer, her Oklahoma coaches and teammates are adapting to team training and college life in the COVID-19.

One of Greer's teammates who recently tested positive for the coronavirus and another is quarantined for contact tracing, according to Oklahoma head coach Sherri Coale.

The coaching staff has been conducting Zoom calls with the returning team members and incoming freshman — after they completed their high school courses — since the spring. The virtual team building will continue on campus to adhere to social distancing.

The team members and coaches have to wear masks during workouts, and standard policy includes disinfecting all the training equipment.

"Training is interesting, to say the least. Playing basketball in masks is See GREER, Page 20

challenging, especially after having not played basketball for four months," Coale said in an email. "Our players have been fantastic, though. I haven’t heard one complaint. They’re all so grateful to be back with one another and working.

We have been going in small groups to minimize player interaction as these fi rst two weeks are about safely returning to play — from a fi tness standpoint as well as the COVID standpoint.

"This is an unpredictable disease and a challenging situation for everybody but the preparation for our return has been thoroughly thought out and the plan has been professionally executed."

Chance to be 'a difference maker' Playing in a Power 5 conference is a huge fi rst step towards Greer.

Her Ganesha head coach Vincent Spirlin knows there is some pressure to perform at that level.

"I've spoken with her on occasions

and told her that when you get to the next level, it's going to be a whole lot different as far as conditioning," Spirlin said.

Spirlin also acknowledged Ganesha didn't have a high school girls basketball player of Greer's caliber before her arrival.

Greer is a versatile two-way threat on off ense and defense with lateral quickness, sinewy length and strength, and 3-point shooting range. She can creates her own shot off the dribble and possesses court vision to penetrate the lane and distribute the ball to enhance her team's play.

Greer averaged 26 points, 15 rebounds, seven blocks, fi ve steals and seven assists during her senior season.

As a junior in 2019, Greer helped lead Shadow Mountain to a 28-3 record and the 4A state title.

"Transferring from Shadow Mountain was a very hard decision because we had done so well that season and won the state championship," Greer said. "But what made me make that decision was more about my academics and not about basketball. Moving to California was to improve more in the

classroom other than the court."

Ranked No. 23 in the nation at her position in the ESPN's Class of 2020, she led the Giants to a 25-4 record and the California Interscholastic FederationSouthern Section title, before losing in the second round of the CIF girls basketball state playoff s to Point Loma (San Diego).

She ended her high school career scoring 1,403 points and snaring 820 rebounds. "(Heavenly) has a chance to be a difference maker — immediately — and an impact player, long-term. She has so much potential," Coale said. "Her athleticism is what hits you immediately.

She’s a quick jumper with long arms and soft hands. I think what stood out most to me (in her fi rst workout) that maybe wasn’t as clear watching her in the stands during the recruiting process is her quickness.

"She is defi nitely tall and long and smooth but she is quicker than I had imagined. And in only a day, it’s pretty clear that she’s an athlete who can and wants to learn. That’s always the diff erentiating trait for incoming freshmen.

Her versatility and her desire to learn

and improve make her a beautiful fi t for our program."

Adjusting to uncertainty The college sports fall schedule is still in fl ux heading into the fall semester and that possibly could alter basketball in winter. And the ongoing question about fans attending games for the 2020-21 academic year has yet to be fi nalized by the NCAA. It's a scenario most student-athletes and coaches don’t fi nd ideal.

But for Greer, studying her favorite subject and playing the game she loves for a sports powerhouse will alleviate her transition away from home.

"Being that there would be no fans allowed in the gym up, they probably will aff ect me but will probably have to get used to not hearing fans scream and shout and get excited for moves that we make on the court," Greer said.

"As long as we still get a season, I think that’s the most important thing.

But not having fans in the audience is something new that I’ve never experienced so I will have to see."

What happens when a presidential candidate dies before an election?

The Reference Librarian Mark H. Floor Guest columnist

Well, the presidential conventions are almost upon us. And since these promise to be conventions unlike any other we’ve seen in our lifetime, let’s take a look at a question that had never occurred to me until friend Bob asked me to research it a while back. I have delayed answering until now just to make sure this column feels timely.

And here’s the question: “What happens if a party’s candidate dies between the national convention and Election Day? Would his or her running mate automatically become the presidential

candidate, or would the party’s leaders get together to choose a new candidate?”

That’s a pretty good question, don’t you think?

That situation has actually never occurred in the history of U.S. presidential elections, by the way. Let’s start with the website usconstitution.net, under an article entitled “Constitutional Topic: Death of a Presidential Candidate:” “As morbid as it seems, one of the most common questions to be asked of this site is what happens if a presidential candidate dies. Though it does seem morbid, it is an important question. One of the most important features of a successful democracy is peaceful transi-

tion of power.”

The website continues: “If a presidential candidate dies after the party convention and before the election, particularly before ballots are printed, the party can select a new person to represent the party on the ticket. The choice will depend on the party’s own rules. As the election nears, the situation gets more sticky, because elections take time to plan. Practically speaking, ballots must be printed, and if there is not enough time to do that, the election can still go on, though with the name of a now-dead candidate on the ballot.

“While near-election death might be a problem for a senator or a judge, where the voters are electing a specifi c person, in the case of the presidential election, the buff er of the Electoral College would allow the election to continue.”

Since I don’t have the space to list the steps set out in the bylaws by each party, let’s do an abridged version. Believe me, the bylaws would have put you to sleep anyway. From the website teachinghistory.org, under “Presidential

Death During the Election Process”: “Both the Republican and the Democratic parties have rules in their bylaws governing how to fi ll the vacancy. The party chair calls a meeting of the National Committee, and the committee members at the meeting vote to fi ll the vacancy on the ticket. A candidate must receive a majority of the votes to win the party’s nod.

“The same process would happen if the vacancy were to occur after the general election but before the Electoral College voting. If a vacancy should occur on the winning ticket, it would then be the party’s responsibility to fi ll it and provide a candidate for whom their electors could vote.”

Sounds pretty straightforward, but then, we are discussing the murky waters of politics.
