Moby Dick, a restaurant on Stearns Wharf, opened June 15, and a waitress said the business has been quite busy.

Lively day at Stearns Wharf

SB pier buzzes with activity despite COVID-19 By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS CORRESPONDENT

Not even cloudy skies, a chilly breeze or a global pandemic could keep avid fishermen, local seafood diners and visitors from near and far, from enjoying all Stearns Wharf has to offer. Even on a gloomy Monday afternoon, the pier was buzzing with activity and foot traffic. People were chatting on the patios of restaurants, taking photos, casting lines and simply taking in the ocean view. Some chose to wear masks and keep their distance, but the majority didn’t. Stearns Wharf was one of the only piers in Southern California, joined only by Goleta Pier, to remain open throughout the COVID-19 lockdown. Only a few of the restaurants served takeout. Now, restaurants and shops have slowly opened their doors back up, taking advantage of the outdoor seating many of them already featured. The majority of businesses said they’ve been swamped with customers. However, some said this reopening was easier said than done. Jonathan Fisher, one of the managers of Santa Barbara Shellfish Company located on the wharf, said the restaurant opened up their indoor dining area for a week, but had to close it “for our own safety.” “Definitely the hardest thing is having people following the rules,” he said. “(People) not wearing masks inside, not respecting each other’s personal space, not respecting our personal space, just the basic rules.” He said many noncustomers walk in to use the restroom intended only for customers.. “It’s just been kind of a free for all out here to be honest,” Mr. Fisher said. “Other than that, people have been really willing to support and have been patient, spending money and wanting to take care of us and support us during the hard times.” Taryn Phipps, a bartender at the Deep Sea Wine Tasting Room, said that while “people have been respectful with masks at the bar and sanitizing,” the business’ reopening has also come with

challenges. “People don’t listen about moving around,” she said. “We try to have people stay at their same table, and it’s almost impossible to control people.” She added, “People mostly seem really excited to be back. They’ve adapted to the changes.” A waitress from Moby Dick, a seafood restaurant on the wharf, had no complaints about COVID-19 precautions. Please see wharf on A7

Even Lil’ Toot is wearing a mask. The vessel is one of Celebration Cruises’ water taxis that gives customers rides from the wharf to the harbor. The business has put a limit on the number of passengers allowed, and enforces social distancing rules and a mask requirement.

The Saturday Farmers Market will have to leave the Cota Street commuter lot whenever the Santa Barbara Police Department’s new station gets built there. But the market will have more time at its current location because of the Santa Barbara City Council’s decision to delay construction and remove $2 million for the station from the fiscal year 2021 budget. The budget cut comes after COVID-19 impacts and societal concern over policing in the wake of George Floyd’s murder. In an interview with the NewsPress, Sam Edelman, the Santa Barbara Certified Farmers’ Market Association general manager, said the organization wants its Saturday Market to remain at the Cota lot for “as long as possible.” That said, the organization has already found a new location for the day that it’s time to move and is going through the process of getting the site approved. “We’re just kind of going to let the process play out, but we’d like to stay where we are as long as we can,” Mr. Edelman said. That new space is a site at the 00 block of East Carrillo Street and 00 block of West Carrillo Street between Anacapa and Chapala Streets, and the 900 and 1000 blocks of State Street located between Figueroa and Canon Perdido Streets. It’s referred to as the “Carrillo Site” in the location proposal. The SBCFMA sent Public Works a request for a conditional use permit for the new venue. The site is one of a dozen that were considered, reviewed and discussed with the city of Santa Barbara. According to the proposal, the Carrillo Site was chosen as the new location for the Saturday market because it met necessary criteria such as for size and configuration of space, close proximity to parking, customer walkability, shade, ambience and traffic flow. “We believe that the Carrillo

site has the greatest potential to provide a safe, family-friendly space that is well shaded, easily accessible by car, bicycle and public transportation, large enough to accommodate 95 farmers and their vehicles, easy to navigate within the market site, and surrounded by ample parking in the immediate area with the ability to accommodate the 5,000-plus attendees during peak season,” the proposal reads. On top of being big enough to hold the SBCFMA’s members, Mr. Edelman added that the Carrillo Site is also suitable because it is centrally located in downtown Santa Barbara, accessible from many areas around town and is close to HIghway 101. The SBCFMA is a statewide program, and around 85 percent of its members are farmers located within the Tri-Counties area. The SBCFMA is now wrapped up in processing paperwork with the Transportation Division as well as other divisions within Public Works. Though Mr. Edelman admitted that he and others involved with the SBCFMA were disappointed when they found out they’d have to leave their old location for a new space, they also recognize that the Santa Barbara Police Department does need a new base of operations. “We understand that the police need a new space for their new station because their current location is inadequate,” he said. email: jgrega@newspress.com

Solvang rally supports local law enforcement By JOSH GREGA NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Beckett Smalldon, a 12-year-old Dunn School student, baits his fish hook. He said this was his fifth day fishing on the Wharf, but hasn’t had a bite.

Sam Edelman, the Santa Barbara Certified Farmers’ Market Association general manager, said the organization wants its Saturday Market to remain at the Cota lot for “as long as possible.”

Local demonstrators gathered Saturday on Mission Drive in Solvang to show support for law enforcement. The rally had a different tone than many protests that have called for defunding police departments across the nation in the wake of George Floyd’s murder at the hands of a police officer in Minneapolis. According to KEYT-TV, the event was co-organized by Bill Giorgi and Peggy Kono, who had rally goers dressed in red, white, and blue waving American flags and repeating the slogan “All Lives Matter.” Referring to local law enforcement as “members of our community” and “our friends,” Mr. Giorgi expressed that police are a necessity. “We want to show them that we support them and need them,” he told KEYT. Reportedly, a few Black Lives Matter protesters held a counter demonstration across the street to oppose the rally. In an interview with the NewsPress, Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office’s Lt. Jeff Greene,

who commands the department’s Solvang station, spoke highly of the rally supporting law enforcement. Though he didn’t witness it personally, he said his troopers greatly enjoyed seeing support for law enforcement at this difficult time for the profession as a whole. “It put some smiles on their faces when they got some thumbs up and cheers,” he said. He added, “We’re very proud of our community that they can come together and express their First Amendment rights.” On the subject of the intense scrutiny law enforcement officers have come under in recent days and the public calls for change in policing techniques, the lieutenant said that law enforcement work is “something that evolves through time.” He also noted the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office is being “proactive in evolving.” Achieving this, he said, can only come about through constant training. “Ongoing training is essential in law enforcement,” Lt. Greene said. email: jgrega@newspress.com

Learning more about COVID-19 Santa Barbara biotech company working on techologies By BRIAN MACKLEY NEWS-PRESS CORRESPONDENT

io SB Inc. is developing technologies that can detect COVID-19 in tissue biopsies and assess the pathological

effects. Before the pandemic, the Santa Barbara biotech company focused entirely on developing and manufacturing technologies for cancer diagnostics and medicine for cancer treatments. After Bio SB Inc.’s business declined in mid-March due to the pandemic, it decided to devote some of its resources to learning more about the coronavirus, Dr. Alfonso Heras, the CEO, told the News-Press. The company’s study involves proteins that are called cytokines and SARS CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. SARS CoV-2 stands for “severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.” “Given our expertise in cancer diagnostics, we have developed technologies to detect SARS CoV-2 in tissue biopsies, and now we are interested to research and better understand the Cytokine Storm Syndrome, which is induced by the COVID-19 infection,” Dr. Heras said. The CEO said learning how to correctly diagnose and treat Cytokine Storm Syndrome is important because it is the primary reason COVID-19 can become fatal. “We are interested in identifying the role of SARS CoV-2 and how it induces a massive and uncontrolled immune response caused by pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine dysregulation that leads to death,” he said. “We believe this research will lead to learning how to prevent the deterioration of patients with COVID-19 infection and eventually saving patient lives,” Dr. Heras explained. According to Bio SB’s studies, “the vast majority of patients with COVID-19 have had a good prognosis, but there are still some critical individuals and even death. Most of these critically ill and dead patients do not develop severe clinical manifestations in the early stages of the disease. Some patients only show mild fever, cough or muscle soreness. “These conditions suddenly deteriorate in the later stages of the disease or in the recovery process. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and multiple-organ failure occur

rapidly, resulting in death within a short time. Cytokine storm is considered to be one of the major causes of ARDS and multiple organ failure.” Dr. Heras said Cytokine Storm Syndrome occurs when the body incorrectly responds to an infection. During a normal response, the immune system releases dozens of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines, which are used to attract various immune cells to the infection site to start attacking the pathogen. However, during an abnormal immunological response, the cytokines released become unregulated, and the excess cytokines make blood vessels hyperpermeable. That leads to thromboembolic events. (Thromboembolism refers to the formation of clots in the blood vessel.) The result is the inflammation of the endothelium, the thin membrane that lines the inside of the heart and blood vessels. The study also states, “Current literature indicates that SARS CoV-2 triggers CSS and has been attributed to the severe symptoms’ characteristic of critical patients. CSS in these patients is often fatal, which is also the case in cases seen in SARS and MERS outbreaks.” In addition to researching Cytokine Storm Syndrome, Bio SB is also looking into how the virus infects cells in humans by using various cell receptors. So far, Bio SB has developed the techniques to test which specific cell receptors the virus uses to infect patients. The company is now looking for clinical institutions to collaborate with for further testing. “The idea is to collaborate with clinical institutions treating COVID-19 patients, where they provide clinical specimens and we provide the technology to research the Cytokine Storm Syndrome,” Dr. Heras said. “Then we both collaborate reading the results and eventually publish the results.” Dr. Heras said the published results will provide hospitals and drug companies more insight into how the virus infects cells in humans and how it triggers the Cytokine Storm Syndrome. By providing more insight into how the virus operates, the hope is that it will help other researchers in their pursuit of developing a cure. email: bmackley@newspress.com Please see covid-19 on A4

This diagram shows the tissue distribution of ACE2 receptors in humans and how viremia distributes the virus throughout the bloodstream. “Shown are lungs, heart, kidneys, intestines, brain and testicles that are well-known to express ACE2 receptors and are possible targets of SARS CoV-2.5,� according to Bio SB Inc. ACE2 receptors allow the virus that causes COVID-19 to infect and destroy cells.

Here are eight ways to be better in 2020

I

f nothing else, 2020 has shown us that we can all do better. We can be better citizens and more understanding of those who seek equality and of those who are feeling the pain of the past and the present. We must learn how to disagree without being disagreeable. Here are some ideas to help make that happen. 1. Be more tolerant. To mask or not to mask is not the question, but it has become a political hot button. Those of us who want to wear a mask can learn to be OK crossing the street on our walks if some mask-less person is coming from the other direction. This is a very minor example of how to deal with the present and not get your knickers in a twist. If you are aware that you might have to take a few extra steps, make that be OK. It removes any tension. 2.  Do the right thing. Between the pain of the pandemic, unemployment throwing many families into food and housing insecurity, and the outrage many people are currently feeling about law enforcement, we have to get better at making the necessary changes and lifting one another up. 3. Keep your chin up. In one way or another, pretty much everyone is living out a battle scene from HBO’s “Game of Thrones.â€? This is not an easy time, but there is some good coming out of it, and those ideas, actions, and feelings need to be

nurtured and held close. 4. Be respectful of other people’s comfort levels. As some shelter-in-place rules lift, there’s more room (pardon the pun) for negotiation. How far apart is far enough? Should we bring our own food to your backyard BBQ? However you work it out is OK. There’s no one right answer. 5. Treasure the time together. Families are getting closer in many respects. As we live this new pod-life (hanging out with just a few people we know very well), the depth of those relationships, blood or not, is growing, and that is a part of life we may not have taken as seriously before. 6. Lower your personal expectations.  If you only survive this crisis, you are doing great. You don’t have to come out of it with rock hard abs, speaking a foreign language, or creating the next big thing. Right now and for the near future, it is about making sure that you and those you love are doing OK physically, emotionally and mentally. 7. Use the extra time on your hands constructively. We wake, we have coffee, take a walk. I then write and perhaps talk to someone. I’m usually done by early afternoon, and that leaves a lot of the day to be cherished in some way. So my wife and I do something small to improve the house, make sure the news is off by sunset, and find a show to watch (loving TNT’s “Snowpiercerâ€?) or even do karaoke together.

8. If you are alone, be sure to reach out to someone at least once a day. People are calling, texting, emailing, Facebooking, to get back in touch with old friends or make new ones. If you are isolated, please know that there is assistance available, but you will have to make some calls or send some emails to get it. And if you know someone who is alone, just say hi. It can make such a difference in their lives. Please don’t be shy, because it will make you feel better too. If we are all our best selves in a time of crisis, we will get through it with much less damage to our families, our neighbors and our country. We all know we can do better. Taking the first step is to make that happen and walk on the positive side of the street. Barton Goldsmith, Ph.D., LMFT, is an award-winning therapist and writer.

ARIES — This is a good day to add spark to your life, Aries. If things have seemed boring and stagnating lately, you may need to infuse a bit of excitement into the situation. Add flair and dynamism to the mix. Take matters into your own hands and actively pursue your goals. You have a strong inner sense of where you need to go. Trust your instincts and move in that direction. Don’t hesitate TAURUS — You’ll notice that your emotions are coming to a monthly climax today, Taurus. Don’t be alarmed but do be cautious about lashing out at people for no reason. You may feel on edge. Unintended slights from others could push you over that edge in a fury of emotion. Harsh words spoken today can damage other people’s feelings for a long time, so remain silent. GEMINI — Extremes is the name of the game now, especially for you, Gemini. Today the emphasis is on action. You’re the one to call to get the job done. You won’t wait another second to simply go for it.

Connect with others who share similar viewpoints, and watch the incredible results unfold. CANCER — Be adventurous and strike out into new territory, Cancer. Be a pioneer. Work to make some new discoveries in the world. Today isn’t a day to worry about consequences. It’s a day to get things started. There is a great deal of fiery energy in the cosmos helping you in your quest for the new and fresh. Take the lead and try not to get thrown off course by leeches and party poopers. LEO — Certain situations may be difficult to deal with today as they take an emotional spin, Leo. You’re getting anxious.

You’ll find that +*#!2 +1$)"$ you can learn a great deal about

yourself and others. LIBRA — The fog has lifted and you’re ready to take off, Libra. The dreaminess you may have experienced lately has been nice, but now it’s time to get moving again.

Use this day as an opportunity to strike out on new ground and achieve whatever you set your heart on. SAGITTARIUS — The fire is raging today, so be careful, Sagittarius. Try not to be too impulsive in your actions. Your natural tendency may be to lash out against others without really thinking about the consequences. If you find yourself getting hot under the collar, you might need to take a step back from the situation and settle down. Pursue your goals, but make sure that you don’t do so at the expense of others. CAPRICORN — Go for the gold, Capricorn. Today marks the beginning of the rest of your life. Treat it with respect. You may be on a crusade and your combative instincts could be working overtime. There’s a lot of fuel in your engine, so don’t worry about running out. The only thing you really need to be concerned about is possibly stepping on other people’s toes. Make sure you consider how your actions affect others. AQUARIUS — You may feel as if someone is poking you today, Aquarius, urging you to get up and get moving. Don’t be surprised if someone seems to be picking on you for no reason. Other people’s lack of sympathy and sensitivity could be acute on a day like this. Try not to take it personally. Your hard outer shell may be put to the test in terms of its ability to protect your soft vulnerability. PISCES — This is a great day for you to get up on stage and make your presence known, Pisces. Let people know that you’re the leader of the pack. There is a great need for you to take the helm now, and you shouldn’t back away from this responsibility. The warrior instinct inside you is probably strong, so don’t hesitate for a second. Be brave and courageous in all situations.

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.

SB County exceeds Movie director Joel Schumacher dies state rate for census By DAVE MASON

NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR

65.8% of residents fill out forms; Senate panel chair stresses importance By PAUL GONZALEZ NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

California has launched a statewide effort to reach thousands of people who have not yet filled out their 2020 Census form. State Sen. Richard Pan, D-Sacramento, said, 65.8% of Santa Barbara residents have responded to the census, just above the state rate of 62.5%. Dr. Pan chairs the Senate Select Committee on the 2020 United States Census. “So, we’re about almost twothirds of the way in Santa Barbara. Not quite there yet and we still have a ways to go. We do have a range in Santa Barbara from Guadalupe at 59.9% to Goleta at 71.1%, but we still could do much better than that,� Dr. Pan said. “In fact, we’re still behind where we expect to be based on even the 2010 census. So, it’s really important that we remind everyone how important it is to fill out the census,� he said. The California Complete Count – Census 2020 Office (California Census Office) — is coordinating the state’s outreach strategy with an emphasis on rural and hard-to-court residents. Dr. Pan said that in some areas, houses and apartments contain large numbers of people living together. which makes them hard to court. He continued that some families forget to count children under age 5. “Also, in Santa Barbara we have a lot of college students, and with coronavirus they have been staying at home, so they are not actually in college. For college students, you do fill it out based on where you would normally be on April 1, so that is over at the college even though you might have been home,� Dr. Pan said. He added that staff will begin

going door-to-door to collect census information starting in August. “If you don’t want them to come knock on your door, fill out your senses today...If you filled out your census, please remind your friends and family that they also need to fill out the census if they haven’t,� Dr. Pan said. Census officials suspect COVID-19 has suppressed public engagement with the census. Dr. Pan said social distancing restrictions prevent people from socializing and makes it harder for state leaders to distribute information. “We can try to do things online, we can try to do things by phone, but people aren’t gathering together to keep people safe, and that makes it a little harder to get the word out. So, for people who spend their time online and are able to communicate in those ways, we can reach them, but it’s harder to reach people who, for example, may not have access to the internet,� Dr. Pan said. He said essential workers in many industries have been hard to reach because they are so busy and don’t have time to respond to the census. Dr. Pan said residents can fill out the census by visiting my2020census.gov. They can also call (844) 330-2020 in English and (844) 468-2020 in Spanish. “You can go online and do it, you can make a phone call, you’re getting the census form in the mail. So, if you still have it fill it out. If you don’t (have the census form), keep a lookout for it in the mail. Please fill out your census today,� Dr. Pan said. Census responses help direct billions of dollars in federal funds to local communities for schools, roads, and other public services.

Joel Schumacher, who directed everyone from the Brat Pack to young vampires to Batman and Robin, has died. The movie director, who had a home in Carpinteria, passed away Monday morning at his home in New York City after a year-long battle with cancer. He was 80. The New York City native, who studied at Parsons the New School for Design and the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York, directed “St. Elmo’s Fire� (1985), which starred Brat Pack actors such as actor Rob Lowe. Others in the Brat Pack were Molly Ringwald, Emilio Estevez and Demi Moore. Along with Mr. Lowe, they played Georgetown graduates dealing with the issues of love and life.

Many of them keep them on when they order and take them off as soon as we’re done (with the order).� She attributed the restaurant’s success to its large amount of outdoor dining space, which makes social distancing easy. Samy Mendoza runs the stand for Celebration Cruises, which provides public and private cruises, along with water taxi rides. The company requires masks and social distancing, and has reduced the number of passengers on the boats. “It’s been a little bit difficult with everything going on,� Ms. Mendoza said. “But it’s good to see people still coming out and enjoying being out in the fresh air.� Aside from the wharf’s business side, residents and

Later, Mr. Schumacher was tapped to follow director Tim Burton, who brought Batman back to his Dark Knight roots in the acclaimed 1989 “Batman� movie starring Michael Keaton. After “Batman Returns� (1992), Mr. Burton and Mr. Keaton left the franchise, and another reboot came with Mr. Schumacher directing Val Kilmer as the caped crusader in “Batman Forever� (1995). The movie introduced Chris O’Donnell as Robin and also starred Jim Carrey as the Riddler, Tommy Lee Jones as Two-Face and Nicole Kidman as Dr. Chase Meridian. The film was known for its emphasis on action and a lighter tone than Mr. Burton’s films. Mr. Schumacher went on to direct “Batman Forever� (1997), this time starring George Clooney as Batman and introducing Alicia Silverstone as Batgirl. Mr.

O’Donnell returned as Robin. Future California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger played the icy villain, Mr. Freeze, and Uma Thurman was the equally villainous Poison Ivy. Several years after “Batman Forever,� Mr. Schumacher directed the film adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical “The Phantom of the Opera� (2004). Accolades for Mr. Schumacher landed on social media Monday. “#JoelSchumacher was the funniest, chicest, most hilarious director I ever worked with,� movie star Minnie Driver posted on Twitter. “Once, on set, an actress was complaining about me within earshot; how I was dreadfully over the top (I was). “Joel barely looked up from his NYT+said ‘Oh Honey, no one ever paid to see under the top.’� email: dmason@newspress.com

were both hits. Mr. Schumacher also succeeded with his next film, “The Lost Boys� (1987), about young vampires in a small California town. The film starred Jason Patric, Kiefer Sutherland, Corey Feldman and Corey Haim. Mr. Schumacher’s movies also included “Flatliners,� a successful 1990 horror thriller about medical students experimenting with life and death. It starred Julia Roberts, Kiefer Sutherland, Kevin Bacon, William Baldwin. And Mr. Schumacher directed Michael Douglas, the late Montecito star Kirk Douglas’ son, as a frustrated defense worker in “Falling Down� (1993). Mr. Schumacher’s next film was “The Client� (1994), starring Susan Sarandon as a lawyer for an 11-year-old client who saw a murder. The client in the adaptation of a John Grisham novel was played by Brad Renfro.

That’s what I really love.� Pug Bernhardt, a musician who plays live music on the wharf for tips, said he comes to the pier for the good food and all the people, and he’s only slightly worried about COVID-19 spreading. “I feel the fear, but I don’t feel it myself,� he said. “I mean, how many people are wearing masks? Close to zero, I’d say.� Ken Norby, a Santa Barbara resident enjoying Mr. Bernhardt’s music, said he’s not concerned about the coronavirus. “Every other pier was closed, so people didn’t have a whole lot of choices,� he said. “People like to get out and breathe.�

The Gauchos’ long wait

UCSB copes with summer recruiting frozen by COVID-19 By MARK PATTON NEWS-PRESS SENIOR WRITER

The thoughts of UCSB coach Joe Pasternack read like a present-day rewrite of a Charles Dickens novel. It was the worst of timing, it was the best of timing. The COVID-19 pandemic ended the college basketball season just hours before his 21-10 Gauchos were to tip off against UC Riverside in their March 12, Big West Conference Tournament opener at Anaheim’s Honda Center. UCSB will return next season with a veteran team that features four seniors, a graduate transfer and three juniors who include twotime All-Big West Conference forward Amadou Sow. That is both good news and bad news for Pasternack, who will be entering his fourth season with the Gauchos: Their experience will make it easier to deal with a long, coronavirus-caused hiatus from organized workouts. But he’s also lost a crucial summer of observing the recruits who will replace those graduating Gauchos. “It would seem as though we’d just be relaxed and kind of sitting on the beach all day during this time,” Pasternack said. “But it’s really been a grind. “You’re trying to finish putting your schedule together and getting games, and you’re also trying to recruit while not being allowed to go out and evaluate players.” Pasternack has had his hands tied in both instances. Scheduling out-of-state trips has been discouraged by both the university and the UC Regents because of both the risks and budget deficits created by the coronavirus. But he has been able to revive some in-state rivalries with West Coast Conference schools, scheduling a home game with Pepperdine and trips to St. Mary’s and Loyola Marymount. “We’re also having an MTE (multi-team event) tournament here with Florida Gulf Coast and Florida A&M,” he said. He also got a break in recruiting last month when Clovis West guard Cole Anderson, who is on pace to break the CIF-Central Section scoring record next season, announced his commitment with the Gauchos. He’d already visited UCSB last November, and he took another trip to Santa Barbara this spring after his older sister, San Jose State guard Megan

Anderson, decided to transfer to UCSB. “We’re trying to do our recruiting presentations over Zoom but we’re not able to observe these players this summer,” Pasternack said. “We do have one commitment right now, which I’m not allowed to speak about, but we also have four scholarships left for 2021. “We have to be very careful that we don’t make a mistake even though we can’t evaluate the kid in person. You can always recover from not getting a great player, but it’s really hard to recover from a mistake. Recruiting is not a perfect science, especially in the world that we’re living in right now.” His four seniors — JaQuori McLaughlin, Devearl Ramsey, Robinson Idehen and Brandon Cyrus — have been busy, as well. “We do have Zoom meetings with our team — we’re allowed to do that — but the players have really gone about taking ownership of the team,” Pasternack said. “They’ll have Zoom meetings without the coaches, do workouts like strength-and-conditioning exercises and things like that. “From that standpoint, it’s kind of a blessing in disguise how the players have taken such ownership. The most powerful teams I’ve been around have been player-led teams, not coachled teams.” The hiatus has also helped several of the Gauchos heal their injuries. McLaughlin received All-Big West Conference honorable mention despite playing the final month of last season with a fractured middle finger on his shooting hand. Cyrus also played with a hand injury for most of the season. “From a health standpoint, we’re in a good place right now,” Pasternack said. Several of the team’s Zoom meetings have included Dr. Joe Carr, a sports psychologist who helped the players deal with the recent killing of George Floyd while in police custody. “On the Friday of the week it happened, they were all able to discuss race relations,” Pasternack said. “It got real intense when they talked about the times they faced their own racist situations. They told some very moving stories. “It was really great that they were able to speak about it and for us to discuss it as a team, with the players and staff, especially since our team is predominantly African-American.” The Big West Conference office, with

CHELINI, George

George T. Chelini, Santa Barbara native and former director of the Santa Barbara Boys and Girls Clubs, passed away on June 17, one day short of his 89th birthday. George grew up just off Milpas on Alphonse Street; graduated in 1949 from Santa Barbara High School, where he played basketball and football; served with the U.S. Air Force in the Korean War; and attended Santa Barbara City College (where he was Student Body President) and UC Santa Barbara. He started working for what was then the Santa Barbara Boys Club in 1956. He spent 37 years with the organization, eventually unifying all the Clubs in Santa Barbara County and becoming their overall Director. George mentored many well-loved staffers at the Clubs who became local legends in their own right, including Sal Rodriguez, Pat Wargo, Rich Modell and Donnie Yee. He also drummed up lots of donations, improved the Clubs’ facilities and ran sports leagues, all while keeping in close touch with the children who came to the clubs for entertainment, exercise and guidance. He was one of the first directors in the country to invite girls into the Clubs, leading to a renaming of the organization as the Boys and Girls Club of Santa Barbara. Even long after he retired in 1993, there weren’t many times when George went out in public in Santa Barbara when he wasn’t recognized by several people who’d been kids at the Boys Club during his years there. Nearly all, now grownups, would express how much George and the Boys Club had meant to them in guiding them into leading worthwhile lives. Somehow, between raising his family and steering his nonprofit, George also found time to take many nice trips, grill a lot of good food, and serve multiple terms on the Goleta School Board. George leaves behind his beautiful and loving wife Margie, four children — Karen, Eric, Marilyn and Remy — 9 grandchildren, 2 great-grandchildren, and a stepdaughter, Polly Frost.

guidance from the NCAA and public health officials, is expected to announce its plans for a “return to activity” by July 20. Pasternack hopes the team will be back together by then for eight weeks of summer school and basketball workouts. “It’s an amazing situation, being away from our guys since March 15,” he said. “It all feels so unusual, but we’re just trying to organize everything for them to come back next month. “We’ll probably have to quarantine everybody — for how long, I’m not exactly sure — and we’ll have to decide what to do from a housing standpoint. It may mean the majority of our players have singles (single-person rooms). “We’re still waiting for the administration to get us details about how to do things on a daily basis.” The waiting game, after all, is the only game in town right now. email: mpatton@newspress.com

Westmont’s Sipe nominated for NAIA scholar-athlete award By MARK PATTON

EX-BIG LEAGUER EARNS UCSB DEGREE Ryan Spilborghs, a star player on UCSB’s NCAA Baseball Tournament team of 2001, has garnered another collegiate achievement nearly two decades later: a bachelor’s degree. The former Gaucho and Major League Baseball outfielder joined this year’s graduating class at

The coronavirus prevented GSAC men’s basketball champion Westmont College from winning an NAIA national title, but one of the Warriors still has a shot at one. Hunter Sipe has been nominated by the Golden State Athletic Conference for the Emil S. Liston Award, which is presented annually to the nation’s top male and female junior scholar-athletes in the sport of basketball. “Hunter represents the character of Westmont College and our basketball program really well,” said Landon Boucher, who was promoted from assistant to head coach of the Warriors after last season. “I’m proud of who Hunter is as a player, but more importantly of who he is as a person and follower of Christ.” Sipe made his Westmont debut this year after playing two seasons at South Puget Sound Community College. He averaged 11.4 points and 5.7 rebounds per game while also making 41 steals. He also served the Santa Barbara community through the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. John Moore, the Warriors’ retiring head coach, wrote in his letter of nomination that he never had a more deserving player for the award during his 32 years at the school. “I am not sure there is a finer way to honor the Emil S. Liston Award than by making each of your teammates shine by your play, by making your college a finer institution by your service and by making the classroom a deeper and richer learning environment by your excellent scholarship and inquisitive nature,” Moore wrote. “That is what Hunter Sipe does as a teammate, as a servant and as a scholar.” Sipe, a native of Olympia, Wash., led the Warriors last season in both minutes per game (35.0) and in total three-pointers (62), having shot 40.8% from beyond the arc. Moore noted that he also took more offensive charges than “any player to put on a Westmont College uniform” and was “a prolific communicator.”

Spilborghs, 40, now works in broadcasting for the Colorado Rockies, his former MLB club. He co-hosts the “Loud Outs” program on SiriusXM. He became a Gaucho after graduating from Santa Barbara High in 1998, having batted .472 during his career with the Dons. He set a school record at UCSB in 2001 by hitting safely in 35 consecutive games during the team’s run to the NCAA playoffs. Spilborghs batted .375 that season to make the All-Big West Conference first team as well as the All-West Region team He also batted .338 for the Gauchos in 2002 while hitting 14 home runs — ranking seventh at UCSB for a single season — before the Rockies took him in the seventh round of the MLB Draft. Spilborghs hit .272 during seven seasons with the Rockies (20052011). He played a pivotal role during their run to the National League pennant in 2007, batting .299 with 11 homers. He also hit .313 in 2008. His contract with the club included a provision that paid for his remaining college education. He took courses from the University of Colorado after his first season with the Rockies but was missing a prerequisite — a Spanish course — that would’ve completed his degree. He couldn’t take classes during the season, however, and struggled to find courses that fit his schedule. He even took

a Spanish class from an online school only to discover that it didn’t transfer to UCSB. Spilborghs, who now makes his home in Denver with his wife and two children, was finally able to take an online class from SBCC that transferred to UCSB. He is now working on his MBA through an online program at the University of Denver. “Honestly, at this point, I’m not sure what I will use it for,” he said. “I think it’s OK to not have a plan, you know, like I don’t have to have a destination yet; I’m enjoying the journey. “I’ll figure out what that means down the road. But right now, I’m totally comfortable with just taking the course and seeing where it goes.”

THREE WARRIORS EARN ACADEMIC ALL-AMERICA HONORS Three Westmont College seniors — Chena Underhill, Michael Oldach and Jack Dickinson — were named to the CoSIDA Academic All-America team for cross country and track. Underhill became the first Westmont student-athlete ever voted to the first team for three straight years by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). The voters

considered a student-athlete’s achievements in both academics and athletics. Oldach also made this year’s first team while teammate Jack Dickinson was voted to the second team. Cassidy Rea earned Academic All-America honors last fall for the Warriors in women’s volleyball. Only one other time, in 2011-12, has Westmont had four studentathletes achieve Academic AllAmerican in the same school year. Underhill, graduated with a grade-point average of 3.97 in a double major of political science and data analytics. She won NAIA All-America honors four times in the pole vault and ranks second in school history with a best mark of 3.75 meters (12 feet, 3.5 inches). She also ranks sixth all-time in the pentathlon and eighth in the 60-meter hurdles. Oldach, a four-time NAIA All-American in cross country, graduated with a grade-point average of 3.77 in kinesiology. He also earned a minor in math. Dickinson, an English major and religious studies minor, graduated with a 3.87 GPA. He holds the school record in the 35-pound weight throw and ranks no lower than seventh in three of the other four throwing events. email: mpatton@newspress.com
