Waypoint church started hosting food drives in the spring of 2021 and had collected 3,000 lbs by the end of the year. “We started the food drives because we wanted to serve the community when the pandemic was at its heights. It was a way to serve in a contactless way. We wanted to provide a way for the community to support the food bank with the food drives. We have had a lot of success. We get a large percentage of the community donating as well. It is a drive through setting where the volunteers go up to the car,” Tarik Burton, lead pastor of Waypoint Church, told the News-Press.

ROCKLIN —The Westmont women’s basketball team (23-5, 16-2) — ranked third in the NAIA — claimed an outright Golden State Athletic Conference regular season championship with a 72-55 win Saturday at William Jessup (14-16, 9-9). This marks three straight regular season championships and four in the last five years. “I am proud of all the work that goes in on a daily basis to have that kind of consistency,” said Coach Kirsten Moore about the Warriors’ success. “I am proud of this team, and this senior class specifically for all they have accomplished in their career. Some of them closed out their last regular season GSAC game with a championship. “They came in as freshmen and were contributors from the beginning. I am really proud of them for sticking with it for four years and giving as much as they have to the vision and to who we are as Warriors. To see the fruit of that with a conference championship in their senior year is great.” The Warriors faced a considerable challenge this year when they lost the conference opener against The Master’s in the first GSAC game of the year. Then, COVID-19 made its way through the team, causing shorthanded practices and games. On Jan. 15, the Warriors did not have enough players to field a team and had to forfeit a league game to San Diego Christian. On Jan. 29, Westmont handed The Master’s its first loss of the season. While winning was an indicator that the Warriors were finally healthy and headed in the right direction, the hope of a regular season championship was slim since The Master’s had just one loss. The following week, The Master’s lost to Hope International and the Warriors suddenly found themselves in a three-way battle for first place. All three teams had two losses at the time. Two days later, the Warriors took down the Royals, resulting in Westmont and The Master’s tied for first in the conference standings. When The Master’s lost to Vanguard on Feb. 12, the way was clear for Westmont to claim the GSAC Regular Season Championship by winning their final two games of the season – both on the road. Thursday, Westmont clinched at least a share of the title with a 59-50 win at Menlo. With today’s win, they stand alone atop the GSAC standings. “It’s the second game in a row where we played a team that was a lot more physical than the first time we saw them,” assessed Moore. “Jessup shot the lights out tonight, making 50% from the 3point line (nine of 18). I thought they played really well and made us step up our game. “I was proud of how we were able to respond. We hit big shots when we needed to, made runs and were able to extend our lead. I’m proud of the team sticking with it and getting a couple of big wins on the road this week. There were a lot of contributions from everyone that was out there. Our guards led us in scoring and knocking down the big shots, but they also had 17 assists.” Stefanie Berberabe went seven of 10 from the field as she produced a double-double with 17 points and 10 assists. She also tallied four rebounds and two steals. Iyree Jarrett posted 15 points, dished off seven assists, and added three rebounds and
three steals. Laila Saenz went five of 12 from beyond the arc to score 15. The first-quarter scoring started with Jessup’s Joelyn Stirton connecting on a three to put the Warriors from Rocklin on top early. Westmont responded, however, by scoring the next 13 points, starting with back-to-back three from Saenz. After Berberabe dropped in a couple of free throws, Aleena Cook hit a jumper to give the Warriors a 10-3 advantage. Berberabe completed the scoring with the Warriors’ third 3-pointer in the first six minutes of the game. At the end of the opening frame, Westmont held a 20-11 advantage. Two minutes into the second quarter, Jessup closed to within seven (22-15) on a long distance bucket by Malia Lepolo. That was before an 8-0 run by the Warriors made the score 30-15. After a jumper by Berberabe started the run, Jarrett stole the ball and fed Berberabe for a layup. The Warriors scored again when Sydney Brown grabbed an offensive rebound and Destiny Okonkwo scored in the paint. Brown then scored her own second-chance bucket after an offensive rebound by Saenz Westmont outrebounded Jessup 33-23 and scored 11 secondchance points to Jessup’s two. Brown led the way on the boards with nine rebounds to go with her nine points. “I thought Syd played really well on both ends of the floor tonight,” noted Moore. “She led us in rebounds and did a lot of good things despite being in some foul trouble.” In the third quarter, Saenz and Jarrett led the Warriors’ offense with nine and eight points, respectively. Saenz went three for six from beyond the arc in the penultimate period and Jarrett didn’t miss a shot going three from three from the field, including one from deep, and one from one from the charity stripe. As a result, Westmont took a 57-40 lead into the final frame. Twice in the fourth quarter, the Warriors extended their advantage to 20-points. With 8:40 remaining, Brown pulled down an o-board, then scored to make the score 61-41. Then, with 6:55 to play, Okonkwo did the same. The Warriors now set their sights on this week’s Golden State Athletic Conference Tournament that will be hosted at The Master’s. “This is what we train for,” said Moore about the tournament. “I am really excited to head into the tournament. We will be on the road, but I am excited to be challenged to have to be our best, and we know we will have to be.” The Warriors, who have won the last five GSAC Tournaments, will be the No. 1 seed as they begin a quest to make it six tournament championships in a row. (Due to COVID-19, no tournament was held last year.) The tournament begins on Wednesday with seventh-seeded Vanguard taking on 10th-seeded Life Pacific and eighth-seeded San Diego Christian playing ninthseeded Ottawa (Ariz.). Westmont has a first-round bye. The winner between San Diego Christian and Ottawa will advance to the quarterfinals and take on Westmont at 5 p.m. Tickets for the tournament will be available at gsacsports.org/tickets.

Volunteers needed for new restorative justice program By KATHERINE ZEHNDER NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER
Santa Barbara County has developed a Neighborhood Restorative Justice Program in the Goleta Valley. District Attorney Joyce Dudley announced that her office recently created the program in conjunction with 2nd District Supervisor Gregg Hart’s office. The neighborhood RJP is a communitydriven program designed to divert low-level misdemeanors from entering the criminal justice system. The program uses restorative justice
principles rather than a courtroom process. According to a news release from the D.A.’s office, offenders in the program are given the opportunity to take responsibility and repair some of the damage that they have caused through a community-based process. The D.A.’s office is currently soliciting community panelists and facilitators who will be trained in restorative justice principles and participate in leading restorative justice conferences. The facilitators will be trained in leading conferences and guiding participants through a step-by-step restorative process. The panelists play a supportive role in
representing the community’s needs, interests and perspectives concerning the crime committed, according to the D.A.’s office. Community volunteers should work or live in the Goleta Valley. “We encourage you to apply and participate in developing an innovative and extremely successful program,” the D.A.’s office said.

families facing food insecurity. “Food insecurity is a concern, the foodbank is a way we can serve those families in a greater way,” said Pastor Burton. Food insecurity in Santa Barbara is partly due to COVID-19 when people lost their jobs or had their hours cut and many businesses were forced to close. The Santa Barbara Food Bank has limited hours of 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, so the food drives give an opportunity to donate to people who are working or unavailable during those hours. Any and all contributions are greatly appreciated. “What’s needed in our community is a consistent level of service. One-time opportunities are great. But the community is in such a great level of need, it is important for us to be consistent in serving due to the level of need.

second, Renck got the run back in the third when he sent a ball over the right field wall to cap off his career day at the plate. Josh Rego joined the party in the third as well, doubling to his usual left-center field gap to score Rudinsky for Westmont’s fourth run of the game. The Warriors’ final punch came later in the inning, when Justin Rodriguez tattooed a mammoth three-run home run over the left field. The ball was gone the moment it met Rodriguez’ bat, and not a single person in the press box could tell where it eventually came down. The home run brought in Rego and O’Neil to make it 7-1 Westmont. After Stoner finished five innings of work, Cameron Phelps and Alex Blaszyk each tossed a scoreless inning to finish off the four-game sweep. “Our guys picked each other up all weekend,” concluded Ruiz. “Whether it was on the mound, or at the plate, we picked each other up. You need to be able to do that to win games. The first weekend of conference can oftentimes feel like the toughest, but it was a solid start and we know we have a lot of tough opponents in front of us.” The first-place Warriors return to action on Friday at 11 a.m. when they host The Master’s for the first of a four game series. Tickets are available on the Westmont Athletics website. “A baseball season is like a 50-game playoff,” explained Ruiz. “You can enjoy the wins for a short amount of time, and then it’s time to put it in the rearview mirror and get back to work. We’ll enjoy this moment, but we’ll stay humble and stay hungry.”

U.S. ranked fourth with 25 medals after final day By KATHERINE ZEHNDER NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER
Team USA ranked fourth in the Beijing 2022 Olympics taking a total of 25 medals: eight gold, ten silver and seven bronze. Norway took the number one spot in this year’s Olympics, taking a total of 37 medals: 16 gold, eight silver and 13 bronze. The Winter Olympics 2022 featured a number of historic and noteworthy moments, including when U.S. snowboarder Chloe Kim took the gold, scoring 94.00 points on her first run. Kim became the youngest snowboarder ever to take the gold when she claimed the halfpipe title at PyeongChang 2018. Additionally, U.S. figure skater Nathan Chen took the gold in free skating, scoring a world record of 113.97. Chen’s victory comes after a disappointing stumble cost him a shot at a gold medal in 2018. China’s Ailing (Eileen) Gu is
said to be perhaps the biggest star of the Beijing Olympics. First Gu won the “gold and silver in freestyle skiing big air and slopestyle respectively before stepping onto the slopes for the halfpipe competition,” reported Olympics.com The 18 year-old scored 95.25 points on her second run and became the first freestyle-skier to win three medals in three different events at an Olympic Winter games. At 24 years-old, the Netherlands’ Suzzane Schulting is becoming a legend in short track. After she set a world record in the quarters, she took the gold in the 1,000-meter final event. Another highlight, Gabriella Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron took the gold in the figure skating ice dance competition, setting a new world record of 226.98. The last time the Olympic games were held in Beijing was in 2008. During the last 16 days, the greatest athletes in the world have displayed their skill and
endurance while competing in a myriad of different Olympic events. During the closing ceremony, the Olympic flame was extinguished and fireworks formed the shape of the Olympic rings. During the parade of the nations, a virtual reality “chinese knot” filled the stadium as a symbolic gesture of the Olympic spirit of togetherness. Additionally, video montages of the last two weeks played on the screens “acting as an important demonstration that, however different we are, if we believe in each other, we will be Stronger Together,” said Olympics.com. In a hat tip to the opening ceremony, the giant snowflake cauldron remained suspended in the air. The snowflake highlights the theme of continuity and children joyfully danced underneath to cheerful music, while holding snowflake lanterns. The ceremony closed with the lowering of the Olympic flag, which was then passed from “the

The Westmont baseball team (15-1, 4-0 GSAC) broke out the brooms on Saturday, taking both ends of a doubleheader to finish off a four-game sweep of the Menlo Oaks (5-61, 0-4 GSAC). In game one, the Warriors rode a seven-spot in the fourth to a 12-4 win, and in game two, the Warriors rode a five-spot in the third to a 7-1 victory. Since losing on opening day, Westmont has now won 15 consecutive games. “We played good team baseball this weekend,” said Westmont head coach Robert Ruiz. “When one side of the game fell short, another side picked us up. Uncharacteristically, we made a lot of defensive errors and gave away a lot of free bases in game one, but we found ways to minimize damage.” In game one, the Oaks got on the board first, scoring a pair of unearned runs off Bradley Heacock in the second inning. Menlo starter Logan Snow held the Warriors scoreless through three, but fell into deep water in the bottom of the fourth. Brady Renck, who had five hits in game one, hit one of his three doubles to lead off the inning. Then, the second baseman swiped third without a throw. Simon Reid drove in RBI number 25 on the season, when he brought in Renck with a sacrifice fly. The very next batter was Thomas Rudinsky, who took his best swing of the young season and scorched a ball over the left field wall, tying the game at two. Later on, with two outs and the bases loaded, Ryan Desaegher broke the tie with a four-hopper that snuck through the left side, scoring both Davis Martinez and Parker O’Neil. Renck, who started the rally, ended the
rally with his second double of the inning. The second double unloaded the bases with two outs, scoring Desaegher, Finn Snyder, and Robbie Haw to make it 7-2 at the end of four. An inning later, the Warriors added a pair on an RBI single from Martinez and on a wild pitch that brought in Paul Mezurashi. Heacock, who became the first Warrior to pick up his fourth win of the season, scattered three hits across six innings of work. Heacock moves to 4-0 on the season, while lowering his ERA to 0.82. “Bradley did a good job figuring out how to minimize,” noted Ruiz. “Offensively, our guys were competing against a good starter and found a way to put together a seven-run inning. Our hitters did a great job giving us a lead and some breathing room.” Westmont added a run in the sixth, a pair in the seventh, and Zach Yates threw three innings of one-run ball to claim the third game of the series, 12-3. In game two, Westmont starter Chad Stoner, Jr. set the tone for the club and did not look back. Stoner moved to 3-0 on the season after tossing five innings of one-run ball. The righthander struck out seven while surrendering just three hits and one walk. “That was one of, if not the best start Stoner has had this season,” reflected Ruiz. “He’s still developing and getting better, but today he was poised and competed with great tempo. He has a chance to keep getting better, and I thought he took a step in the right direction this weekend.” Rudinsky quickly carried over Westmont’s momentum from game one in the bottom of the first. With two on and one out, Rudinsky hit a fly ball that carried deep into right-center field, bouncing off the wall to bring in both Haw and Mezurashi for the early advantage. After Menlo got its lone run of the day in the

Westmont upsets Jessup in men’s basketball By JACOB NORLING WESTMONT SPORTS WRITER
ROCKLIN — The Westmont men’s basketball team (15-13, 5-13 GSAC) capped off the regular season in style on Saturday, defeating No. 4 William Jessup (255, 13-5 GSAC) 78-69. The road-Warriors outscored Jessup 45-29 in the first half, and held on down the stretch for a big win in Rocklin. “We came out with an intensity that we can be really proud of,” said Westmont head coach Landon Boucher. “Having Cade back on the floor was a huge boost that is invaluable to us.” Cade Roth, Westmont’s captain and lead playmaker, saw the floor Saturday for the first time since Jan. 20, when he took a hard fall in Murchison Gym. Tonight, the captain collected eight boards, dished out three assists, and scored four points in his 24-minute return. During the first half, Westmont did not surrender a single three-pointer to Jessup, who missed 12 shots from beyond the arc. Westmont drained five threes during the half, and made 15 of their 34 field goal attempts. The home team made only 11 of 30 shot attempts. Jared Brown and Nate Meithof both scored in double figures in the first half, with Ajay Singh and Jalen Townsell both close behind. “We played a really good first half,” noted Boucher. “Our guys were sharing the ball today more than they have all year, and it resulted in easy shots. Sharing the ball is a fun way to play with each other.” In the second half, Westmont slowed down offensively, but did enough to maintain their lead in the final minutes. Meithof once again scored in double figures, and Cly Griffith Jr. led the club with 12 points in the final period. In the final minute of action, Jessup got within six, but the Warriors hit key free throws when it counted, and successfully held off the top-10 team for their fifth conference win of the year.
“Even though Myles Corey is out for William Jessup,” began Boucher, “they are still a very tough team who will be a threat in the national tournament.” Individually for Westmont, Griffith finished with 16 points, while Singh added 13 and Brown added 11. Meithof led Westmont with eight rebounds as he collected four assists, while Tyler Austin added in seven rebounds and four assists off the bench. “Jared and Nate played really hard on both ends,” said Boucher. “Tyler Austin was really impactful off the bench for us, grabbing seven rebounds in fifteen minutes.” At the end of the day, the biggest individual story for Westmont was Meithof and his team-high 21 points. With his 21-point outing, Meithof, a truefreshman, clinched the GSAC scoring title. Meithof averaged 18.5 points per game during the regular season. He is the first Westmont player to win the conference scoring title since Preston Branson won back-to-back titles in 2010-11 and 2011-12. “Anytime a player earns a scoring title, it’s a big credit to their teammates,” reflected Boucher. “The exciting part is that Nate is growing as a player and a person every day.” On Wednesday night, Westmont will play in the first round of the GSAC Tournament, down in Fullerton. Game times and opponents will be announced soon. The tournament will run four straight days, with the conference title game taking place on Saturday night. “Our goal has been to keep getting better every day since September,” said Boucher. “We will keep trying to do that as we head into the conference tournament.” Jacob Norling is the sports information assistant at Westmont College. email: sports@newspress.com

Westmont swimmers keep breaking records By RON SMITH WESTMONT SPORTS WRITER
ST. GEORGE, Utah — On the final day of the Pacific Collegiate Swim Conference Championships, Westmont swimmers continued to break school and personal records and made a podium appearance. “I’m so deeply proud of all these women,” said Westmont head coach Jill Jones Lin. “It gets harder every year knowing that this is the last time this team will compete together. It’s been such a fun team to coach, and I am eternally grateful for their commitment to Westmont swimming.” The day started with Morgan Bienias competing in the 200 yard backstroke prelims. The junior posted a time of 2:07.89 to rewrite the school record and earn a spot in the evening’s “A” finals. In the finals, she posted a time of 2:10.64, to claim eighth place. That time might seem a disappointment until it is put in context. Bienias competed in the finals of the 200 yard backstroke within 25 minutes of finishing the 1,650 yard freestyle — the longest race of the championship. Bienias posted a time of 17:50.23 in the 1,650 to take third place and earn Westmont’s first podium appearance at this year’s PCSC Championship. Also competing in the 1,650 was freshman
Olivia Garrison. She recorded a time of 17:55.50 to finish in seventh place out of 24 competitors. In the 100 yard freestyle, Bridget Hoth earned a spot in the “C” finals with a time of 53.91, which was also a school record. Hoth finished second in the “C” final, posting a time of 54.08. Overall, Hoth placed 22nd. The 100 yard freestyle prelims also included Emmeline Larrson (59.15), Hannah DeSoto (59.19) and Gaby Rego (1:03.35). For Larrson and DeSoto, the times were season bests. Three Warriors competed in the 200 yard breaststroke prelims with Ella Chaisson earning a spot in the “A” finals after posting a time of 2:25.99 – fifth best in the prelims. In the evening, Chaisson moved up to fourth place, posting a time of 2:24.49, which was just 0.07 off her personal best and the school record. Seniors Olivia Huebner and Holley Fellows also raced in the 200 yard breaststroke. Huebner recorded a time of 2:51.51 and Fellows posted a personal best time of 2:54.27. In the last of the prelims, Emma Leathers swam the 200 yard butterfly. Her time of 2:30.21 took more than 10 seconds off of her personal best. Leathers finished 25th in the prelims, one out of advancing to the finals. However a scratch allowed her to compete in the “C” final. Leathers took advantage of the opportunity and shaved another second and one half off her time, finishing in 23rd place
with a time of 2:28.78. “Emma has shown everyone what it means to positively motivate yourself to achieve big goals,” said Jones Lin. The four-day championship ended with the 400 yard freestyle relay with Westmont entering two teams. The “A” team, consisting of Kassy Gregory, Rian Lewandowski, Garrison and Hoth set a new school record 3:38.51, beating the old record by exactly five seconds. The Warriors finished ninth in the event. “The highlight was definitely having our two seniors (Fellows and Huebner) on the “B” relay team,” said Jones Lin. “Seeing them race one last time together was really sweet.” As a team, Westmont maintained its position as the top NAIA team in the PCSC, tallying 366 points. Arizona Christian totaled 301 while The Master’s posted a score of 293. Overall, Westmont finished ninth out of 15 teams. Next up for Westmont is the NAIA National Championships, which will be held on March 2-5 in Columbus, Ga. The seven Warriors who have qualified for the event have a collective 38 entries in individual event races and will also compete in five relays.

UCSB men’s volleyball team defeats BYU By MICHAEL JORGENSON UCSB SPORTS WRITER
The No. 6 UCSB men’s volleyball team came away with another win over No. 13 BYU on Saturday night at Rob Gym, making big plays throughout in a thrilling four-set victory, 25-22, 28-26, 26-28, 26-24. The Gauchos (9-4) won their fourth straight match and eighth in their last nine outings while handing the Cougars (5-7) their fifth straight defeat. This was UCSB’s first match of the season where both teams hit at a .350 clip. The Gauchos didn’t hit over .300 in their previous five matches. Outside hitters Dayne Chalmers (.364) and Ryan Wilcox (.367) led the offense with 16 and 15 kills, respectively. Sophomore middle blocker Donovan Todorov set a careerhigh with 11 kills and tied his season-best .667 hitting percentage. He also had two blocks. With 47 assists, sophomore setter Patrick Paragas set a new personal-best for assists per set (11.8). He also added two kills, seven digs and a block. For the third straight match, sophomore outside hitter Nick Amoruso went for double-digit kills (11). Prior to this run, he had crossed the 10-kill mark just once.
Getting the start for the second straight time, sophomore middle blocker Dain Johnson tallied a career-high five blocks, one more than he had in the previous win over BYU. UCSB won the first set 25-22. It was another fast start for the Gauchos, who took a 10-5 lead on Todorov’s first kill of the night. BYU answered with a 10-5 run of its own to tie it at 1515. The two sides traded blows down the stretch, but the Gauchos took two key points late. A great service reception from Wilcox gave Paragas time to set up Amoruso for a huge kill, putting UCSB up 23-21. Todorov added another kill to make it 24-22 and a final BYU attack went long to seal the 25-22 win. UCSB then won the second set 28-26. BYU looked like a different team in the second game, apart from its serving, which helped keep the Gauchos in it. The Cougars had nine service errors in set two alone, killing their momentum each time and stopping them from taking more than a three-point lead. UCSB overcame a set point with a big kill from Wilcox and the final two BYU serves went into the net, leading to a Johnson-Amoruso block to end the set in UCSB’s favor, 28-26.
BYU took the third set 28-26. The Gauchos appeared to be in control and on their way to a second straight sweep, leading 20-15 following an Amoruso kill. However, BYU inched its way back into things, scoring three straight to tie it at 23-23. Wilcox kills set UCSB up with match point at 24-23, and again at 25-24, but the Cougars pulled off the comeback, flipping the score from game two to extend it to a fourth set. UCSB wrapped up the night by winning the fourth set 26-24. For the third straight time, a set would require extra points to be settled. Neither team held a lead of more than three points, and yet another BYU service error tied it at 21-21. A fiercely fought battle saw BYU in position to extend the match to a fifth set, leading 2423. UCSB went to its star hitters from there, as Chalmers tied it on the next point, and Wilcox picked up two clutch, well-placed kills on the following two to end the night. With four matches left in their home stand, the Gauchos will get back to action next Thursday looking for their fifth straight win against No. 11 UC San Diego at 7 p.m. Michael Jorgenson writes about sports for UCSB. email: sports@newspress.com
UCSB women fall to late surge from Long Beach State By MICHAEL JORGENSON UCSB SPORTS WRITER
The UCSB women’s basketball team held the lead for most of the second half in Saturday’s game at Long Beach State, but the Beach stormed back with a big run to open the fourth quarter, taking a 65-62 victory that went down to the last shot. Point guard Danae Miller led the way with 18 points and six assists. After hitting three of her first five three-point attempts, the senior’s potential game-tying trey missed in the final seconds. Center Ila Lane put up 15 points (5/8 FG) and seven rebounds, while fellow junior Alexis Tucker rounded out UCSB’s double-digit scorers with 11 points and six boards. The Gauchos (13-9, 7-6) are now 2-5 in conference road games, compared to 5-1 at home. LBSU (17-5, 10-4) meanwhile ends a run of three straight losses at Walter Pyramid. Santa Barbara came out strong with one of its best first quarters in 2022. Miller made all three of her three-point attempts, including one on the Gauchos’ last possession to put them up 24-17 after one. UCSB was bitten by the turnover bug in the second quarter, committing eight of its 20 total giveaways. The Beach held the Gauchos to 25 percent (2/8 FG) from the field to take a 32-31 edge into halftime. After the break, UCSB held LBSU to just seven points on 3-of-15 from the field in the third. The Gauchos got to the line, making all eight third
quarter free throws, and Lane, Miller and Tucker scored every UCSB point in a period they won 17-7. Santa Barbara held a nine-point lead, 50-41, with less than nine minutes to go. The Beach scored four straight on second chance opportunities, followed by another four points off turnovers to cut it to a one-point game with 5:53 to go. Both sides traded the lead a couple times before Long Beach guard Ma’Qhi Berry’s three-pointer with 1:45 remaining gave LBSU a 61-57 advantage. Guard Johnni Gonzalez answered with a big three of her own, cutting the lead to 61-60 with 34 seconds left. The Beach went 4-of-4 at the line in the final minute, helping to maintain a three-point lead after Danae Miller’s pull up jumper with 18 seconds left. Maddi Utti’s final two free throws with 15 seconds on the clock forced the Gauchos to go for a game-tying three, but they couldn’t convert. Miller made three triples for the second straight game. It was the sixth time she has made at least three this year, tying a career-high. She is now three away from tying Melissa Zornig (148, 2010-14) for No. 7 all-time at UCSB, With two weeks left in the regular season, the Gauchos will be home next Thursday and Saturday for their final home games of the 2021-22 season. They will host UC Riverside on Thursday at 7 p.m. and UC Davis on Senior Day Saturday at 2 p.m.
SBCC nearly takes down Moorpark in home finale By MICHAEL JORGENSON SBCC SPORTS WRITER
The Santa Barbara City College women’s basketball team battled back from an early double-digit deficit against a talented Moorpark team, tying it in the final minutes before falling by a final score of 62-56. The Vaqueros (10-16, 5-7) were led by guard Isabella Jensen Williams’ 15 points at Saturday’s home game. Forward Asia Kirven flirted with a double-double, putting up 13 points (5/10 FG) and nine rebounds. Guard Katrina Regalado finished with 10 points, eight rebounds and three assists. The Raiders (22-3, 11-1) came out strong, taking a 17-7 lead through one. However, Santa Barbara used a 17-5 run extending into the second half to take its first lead of the day. Regalado’s layup at the 8:39 mark of the third quarter put the Vaqueros up 29-28. Moorpark pushed its lead back up to six points, but SBCC continued fighting back. In the final five minutes of the fourth, Regalado, Kirven and Jensen Williams scored on successive possessions, each time making it a one point game. Jensen Williams’ three-point play put her at the line to tie it 54-54 with 3:35 to go. Kirven tied it at 56-56 with a layup on the Vaqueros’ next play. Moorpark’s Julianna Martinez put the visitors back up with a minute and a half left, 58-56. The Vaqueros would have two chances to tie it, but couldn’t convert, missing their final four shots and two attempts from the free throw line. Moorpark knocked down its four free throws in the final 30 seconds to ice the game. SBCC will play one more regular season game. Originally scheduled for Dec. 30, 2021, the Vaqueros will head out to play at Bakersfield next Wednesday, Feb. 23 at 7:00 p.m.

SBCC baseball team claims third straight victory By MICHAEL JORGENSON SBCC SPORTS WRITER
The Santa Barbara City College baseball team won its third straight game on Saturday at Pershing Park, using a big third inning to pull away from Cerro Coso for a 13-7 victory. It was a big day at the home game for third baseman Owen Crevelt, who had four RBI on two home runs. This is the second time the Vaqueros (7-3) have won three straight games already this season. The Coyotes (8-5) dropped their second straight game to the Vaqueros after starting the year with an 8-3 mark. Trailing 2-0, shortstop Caiden Matheny got SBCC on the board in the second, leading off with a single to left center before stealing second and scoring on a Coyote error. The following inning would be the Vaqueros’ biggest of the day. Left fielder Carson Cahoy singled through the left side and made it home on the following at bat, a big triple to center field from Gavin Haimovitz. First baseman Mark Hernandez and Matheny walked, loading the bases, and Haimovitz scored on a sacrifice fly to right from catcher Andrew McKenna to give the Vaqueros a 3-2 lead. Facing two outs, Owen Crevelt then stepped up to hit a huge homer over the left field wall,
doubling SBCC’s run total to make it a 6-2 game. The Vaqueros added to their lead with a fourth and fifth innings. Nicholas Seyler singled up the middle and, after stealing second, would score on a Coyote error. In the fifth, right fielder Hunter Call hit a two-run double, bringing home Justin Deal and McKenna to make it 9-2. The Coyotes fought their way back into it, scoring four runs in the top of the seventh. However, Crevelt responded with another big hit to give SBCC some breathing room, sending another ball over left field for his second homer of the day and the season. Cahoy added another in the next inning scoring on a sac fly by Matheny and a huge Cerro Coso error with two outs allowed two more runs to put the Vaqueros up 13-6. Pitcher Colby Downard started the game and gave up two runs through three full innings. Seth White (1-0) earned his first win of the year after coming in to start the fourth and giving up just one hit and no runs in three innings. SBCC will be back home on Tuesday for its conference opener against Oxnard at 2 p.m. at Pershing Park.

The Santa Barbara Youth Symphony will perform “Sinfonia” Feb. 27 at the Lobero Theatre.
By KAITLYN SCHALLHORN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER
It’s music to our ears: The Santa Barbara Symphony’s youth ensembles will perform later this month. To showcase the talent of young musicians, the Camerata Ensemble and Philharmonia Orchestra will perform at 3 p.m. Feb. 26 at La Colina Junior High School, 4025 Foothill Road, Santa Barbara. The following day in Santa Barbara, the Youth Symphony
will perform at 4 p.m. at the Lobero Theatre, 33 E. Canon Perdido St. Admission for both concerts is free. The Youth Symphony is composed of 40 students between ages 12 to 18 from Santa Barbara and Ventura counties. At their Feb. 27 concert, the students will perform “Sinfonia,” a piece composed in 1999 by award-winning composer and musician Patrice Rushen. “It is tremendously rewarding
for me to see and hear ‘Sinfonia’ come to life, especially through these young musicians,” Ms. Rushen said in a news release. “Music education was so important in shaping my life and career and opening my mind to what was achievable. Music is a vehicle and a platform that is critical for education, and knowing that my music is being integrated into these students’ musical training experience is such an honor.” “I’ve had a chance to connect with the Santa Barbara Youth
The ensemble is composed of 40 musicians between ages 12 and 18 from Santa Barbara and Ventura counties.
Symphony students via Zoom, and I think that’s a special connection for them to make with someone who actually composed the music they’re playing,” she continued. “I hope this music continues to inspire the next generation while opening relationships to music and culture.” Ms. Rushen was recently appointed chair of Popular Music at the USC Thornton School of Music. She has worked with the Los Angeles Cultural Affairs Department, NARAS “Grammy
in the Schools” program, the Young Musicians Program and more. Ms. Rushen has also performed with and produced for artists such as Stevie Wonder and Herbie Hancock. “As a conductor, it’s always an honor and a pleasure to have the opportunity to talk and perform music by a living composer,” said Dr. Yvett Devereaux, the Santa Barbara Youth Symphony conductor and the first black woman to conduct the Los Angeles Philharmonic. “We now have
The Santa Barbara Youth Symphony will perform “Sinfonia” at 4 p.m. Feb. 27 at the Lobero Theatre, 33 E. Canon Perdido St., Santa Barbara. And the Camerata Ensemble and Philharmonia Orchestra will perform at 3 p.m. Feb. 26 at La Colina Junior High School, 4025 Foothill Road, Santa Barbara. The Camerata Ensemble, led by conductor Marisa McLeod, is composed of musicians who are early in their musical training. It introduces students to the basics of ensemble playing, following a conductor and listening across a musical group while playing. The Philharmonia Orchestra is the intermediate step in the Santa Barbara Symphony’s Music Education program’s continuum of performing ensembles. Philharmonia engages string, wind, brass and percussion students in performing as a full orchestra under Ms. McLeod’s baton. Both concerts are free. According to the Lobero web site, those attending must show proof of vaccination or of a COVID-19 test within 72 hours, Masks are no longer required indoors for vaccinated individuals, but are recommended. They are required for unvaccinated individuals. For more information, go to lobero.org or thesymphony. org. the opportunity to ask questions directly to the composer about his or her piece and really hear directly from the composer of his or her wishes and desires of his or her piece. “The beautiful and lush writing of ‘Sinfonia’ is just wonderful, and each week, I can hear how it becomes even more beautiful as the students play it and really make this piece their own,” Dr. Devereaux said. email: kschallhorn@newspress.com

Munich artists’ humor graces ‘O Diese Dackel’ (‘O These dachshunds’)
COURTESY PHOTOS
“O Diese Dackel: Lustiges aus dem Leben unserer kleinen Krummbeingen” means “O These dachshunds: funny things from the life of our little crooked-legs.” The 1912 book is valued at $100 and contains art by Adolf Hengeler (1863-1927) and August Roeseler (1866-1943), both of Munich.
T
he entire flavor of an era is contained in this one little book, “O Diese Dackel: Lustiges aus dem Leben unserer kleinen Krummbeingen” published in 1912 in Munich.
If you don’t read German, the title is something like, “O This Dachshund: Funnies about the life of our small odd- shaped being.” My German is very rusty. My mother spoke German, and both parents had German roots.

1927) and August Roeseler (18661943), both residents of Munich, both past students of the Munich Academy of Fine Art. You would think an serious art academy would not produce artists that focused on such distracting art as funny illustrations, and would have taught artists to grapple with issues of the day, but this is exactly why this little book sums up the zeitgeist of the last few years of the 19th centuries and beginning of the 20th centuries so well. Two years after this book was published, Germany entered the bloody World War I, and in Bavaria, deep dark clouds were on the horizon. I adore this little slim volume because I adore the breed of dog it celebrates, the Doxie, and the illustrations are lighthearted, comical, sentimental and accurate. The summary of those four words perfectly illustrates the “zeitgeist” or flavor of the time in Bavaria. My ancestors came from that region right about that time, emigrating to St. Louis. Possibly my absolute favorite illustration by Roeseler is one that is not in the book, but one that features dachshunds, originally published in the magazine “Fliegende Blatter” (Flying Leaves) in Munich on Aug. 31, 1900. Doxies salivate as they longingly lust after a sausage shape high in the sky. This was the artist’s comment of the flight of Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin’s blimp as it passed over the Bodensee at Friedrichshafen (Lake Constance). I found the illustration, titled “Riesenwurst” (literally traveling sausage), on “Read Seen Heard” by collector Kihm. Roeseler was known in his day as the Dackelmaler (Doxie painter), and indeed a theme in his work was the juxtaposition of the wiener dog and actual wieners
(Wurst). Such were found on a menu he designed for the famous hot spot of the Oktoberfest, the Hofbräuhaus am Platzl, and beer steins he designed for Villory and Boch, Marzi and Remy, and Mettlach. He was also a poster artist, genre oil painter (mostly drinking men with dogs!), and cartoonist, and collectors look for his illustration of the bumpkins of Bavaria in “Jugend,” and “Simplicissimus.”He collaborated with the co- illustrator of “O Diese Dackel,” Hengeler, on Hengeler’s magazine “Fliegende Blatter,” for which Hengeler drew 5000 illustrations over his 20 yeartenure. That was, he drew 5,000 illustrations before he married into a very wealthy family, the daughter of the Court jeweler for King Ludwig III of Bavaria. He took a professorship at the academy of Arts, Munich, where Hengeler had apprenticed as a lithographer in 1878, and studied copper plate engraving. When he married into money, he assumed the more refined profession of oil painter! His paintings of the fin de siècle also contained the light and fanciful zeitgeist of the era (which I have always considered troubling: in Germany of this period, the poor were EXTREMELY poor, the rich EXTRAORDINARILY rich, war was brewing etc.), painting themes of humor and caricature, landscapes with sprites and mythic creatures, the forests of Bavaria replete with religious figures, and — yes — drinking men with dogs. His work had some acclaim: He showed in the famous 1893 Munich Secession, in the Great Berlin Art Exhibition, at the Munich Glass Palace (four shows). His grandson Peter Bomhard (1919-1979) became an art
historian and endowed his grandfather’s home village of Kempten in upper Bavaria his grandfather’s complete collection of art and furnishings, requesting that the local Allgau Museum create a wing to reproduce his grandfather’s studio. Thus the Hengeler Room was the focus of a celebration in 2013 of Hengeler’s 150th birthday. Perhaps as an answer to the escapist art of the turn of the last century, practiced by Hengeler, the town commissioned a musical in Hengeler’s honor called “The So-Called Hengeler Art Revue, or the Strange Sorrows of an Art Professor.” I can almost hear the tubas and accordions as I write this. The value of “O Diese Dackel” is $100. I am indebted to Imke, a German friend of mine, who, upon noticing I had two “Dackels” (Bark and then Bear) in rapid succession, gifted me this book. Dr. Elizabeth Stewart’s “Ask the Gold Digger” column appears Mondays in the News-Press. Written after her father’s COVID19 diagnosis, Dr. Stewart’s book “My Darlin’ Quarantine: Intimate Connections Created in Chaos” is a humorous collection of five “what-if” short stories that end in personal triumphs over presentday constrictions. It’s available at Chaucer’s in Santa Barbara.

Every number in the codeword grid is ‘code’ for a letter of the alphabet. Thus, the number 2 may correspond to the letter L, for instance. All puzzles come with a few letters to start. Your first move should be to enter these letters in the puzzle grid. If the letter S is in the box at the bottom of the page underneath the number 2, your first move should be to find all cells numbered 2 in the grid and enter the letter S. Cross the letter S off the list at the bottom of the grid. Remember that at the end you should have a different letter of the alphabet in each of the numbered boxes 1- 26, and a word in English in each of the horizontal and vertical runs on the codeword grid.

Libra: There’s no question about it, Libra, you’ve been working hard these last few weeks. As an approaching deadline looms, you may find yourself waking up at night, running numbers through your head, and mentally rewriting project proposals. It’s exhausting, to be sure, but know that the end result will make all this aggravation worthwhile. Scorpio: Today, or rather tonight, is for romance and cozy intimacy, Scorpio. You pull out all the stops for your evening with that special someone. Scented candles, your best perfume, and your most sensuous clothing work to enchant the person who is already head over heels in love with you. Sagittarius: Some interesting moneymaking opportunities are likely to come your way, Sagittarius, either today or in the near future. It could be that it’s time for a new job, one that promises faster progress through the ranks and more financial stability. Once you get past a certain age, working on commission loses its appeal. You’re ready for steady growth in your portfolio. Capricorn: There’s going to be so much to get done today that you might feel a little daunted about getting started. By midday you could even find yourself downright overwhelmed. Take a break, Capricorn. Take a long lunch on an outside terrace, weather permitting. Breathe deeply until the stress subsides. You may need to concentrate on finishing only one or two minor tasks today and put the rest off until tomorrow. Aquarius: No sooner do you set foot in the office this morning than you begin to get pelted from all directions with various crises and problems, Aquarius. It isn’t a very welcome reception. A hot cup of coffee and a warm greeting from your co-workers would be a much nicer way to start the day. Pisces: Today will be a lovely combination of harmony and passion. Make the most of it, Pisces. With things running so smoothly at work, there’s no reason you can’t leave the office early to prepare for a special evening with your partner. Pull out all the stops tonight. Scented candles, a fabulous meal, and an even more fabulous outfit.

Aries: Your efforts on the domestic front have certainly paid off, Aries. Your home is looking wonderful. Everyone who enters says so. Some unexpected visitors may stop by for a quick hello and wind up staying for dinner. You are a natural, gracious host, not to mention a great cook. Who can blame your guests for wanting to stay? Taurus: Your neighborhood is changing, Taurus, and the change is all for the better. Wonderful new neighbors may have moved in, or perhaps a small gourmet take-out shop has just opened up. It all adds to the sense of warmth and community of your town. You spend a good part of the day among your neighbors, encountering them wherever you go as you run errands in town. Gemini: Financial prosperity is just around the corner, Gemini, especially with your recently acquired money-management skills. It’s likely that you’ll receive a windfall in the near future, although it may not seem like a windfall to you, since you’ve been expecting this money for a long time now. Use your new abilities to invest it soundly and wisely. Cancer: The significant other in your life needs your support not a lecture right now, Cancer. Let him or her know you’re available to listen and help in any way, but don’t smother your partner with kindness. He or she will come to you when ready. In the meantime, Cancer, take care of your physical needs. Leo: Today is the final push to complete a very big project you’ve likely been working on for some time now, Leo. Even though your name won’t be on the cover of the book or business proposal, you’re gratified to have played such a significant role in its completion. Be sure to have a nutritious breakfast and lunch today, because you’re likely to work right through dinner. Virgo: A pleasant outing could get delayed or cancelled due to an event entirely out of your control. Rather than having a fit, Virgo, you and your friends could seize the opportunity to do something completely wild and different. For example, you could take in a matinee of the scariest movie in town or finally try out that Ethiopian restaurant you’ve been hearing so much about.

NOTICE! You have been sued. The court may decide against you without your being heard unless you respond within 30 days. Read the information below. You have 30 CALENDAR DAYS after this summons and legal papers are served on you to file a written response at this court and have a copy served on the plaintiff. A letter or phone call will not protect you. Your written response must be in proper legal form if you want the court to hear your case. There may be a court form that you can use for your response. You can find these court forms and more information at the California Courts Online Self-Help Center (www.courtinfo.ca.gov/selfhelp), your county law library, or the courthouse nearest you. If you cannot pay the filing fee, ask the court clerk for a fee waiver form. If you do not file your response on time, you may lose the case by default, and your wages, money, and property may be taken without further warning from the court. There are other legal requirements. You may want to call an attorney right away. If you do not know an attorney, you may want to call an attorney referral service. If you cannot afford an attorney, you may be eligible for free legal services from a nonprofit legal services program. You can locate these nonprofit groups at the California Legal Services Web site (www.lawhelpcalifornia. org), the California Courts Online Self-Help Center (www.courtinfo. ca.gov/selfhelp), or by contacting your local court or county bar association. NOTE: The court has a statutory lien for waived fees and costs on any settlement or arbitration award of $10,000 or more in a civil case. The court’s lien must be paid before the court will dismiss the case. ¡AVISO! Lo han demandado. Si no responde dentro de 30 días, la corte puede decidir en su contra sin escuchar su versión. Lea la información a continuación. Tiene 30 DÍAS DE CALENDARIO después de que le entreguen esta citación y papeles legales para presentar una respuesta por escrito en esta corte y hacer que se entregue una copia al demandante. Una carta o una llamada telefónica no lo protegen. Su respuesta por escrito tiene que estar en formato legal correcto si desea que procesen su caso en la corte. Es posible que haya un formulario que usted pueda usar para su respuesta. Puede encontrar estos formularios de la corte y más información en el Centro de Ayuda de las Cortes de California (www.sucorte.ca.gov), en la biblioteca de leyes de su condado o en la corte que le quede más cerca. Si no puede pagar la cuota de presentación, pida al secretario de la corte que le dé un formulario de exención de pago de cuotas. Si no presenta su respuesta a tiempo, puede perder el caso por incumplimiento y la corte le podrá quitar su sueldo, dinero y bienes sin más advertencia. Hay otros requisitos legales.
