By MARK PATTON NEWS-PRESS SENIOR WRITER

Sophomore Evann Smith, a goalkeeper on the UCSB women’s soccer team, helped raise nearly $80,000 this summer in the battle against racial injustice.

Now she wants to raise awareness.

Smith, an honors student who plans to major in either economics or psychology, was named by the Big West Conference as vice-chair of its newly formed Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee.

The committee is comprised of one administrator and one student-athlete from each of the Big West’s 11 member institutions. Christina Baglas, UCSB’s deputy athletics director for development, was also selected to the committee while UC San Diego director of athletics Earl Edwards was named as chair.

The conference described the mission of the committee — known as Big West Undivided — as a “united front to combat racism, fight for social justice, and proudly support the Black Lives Matter movement and other nonviolent organizations alongside its coaches and student-athletes.”

“Athletes across the world are fueled with passion to fight for equality and against injustices,” Smith said. “Big West Undivided is a vessel for student-athletes and staff alike to inspire and create sustainable change inside our athletic communities.

“It is extremely invigorating to be a part of a committee that is action-oriented and filled with determined members.”

The committee plans to work with the conference’s SAAC (Student Athlete Advisory Committee) on “voter initiatives encouraging student-athletes to take part in the electoral process by providing nonpartisan resources and registration information.”

Big West Undivided listed four guiding pillars:

“Educating committee members and league constituents on the importance of diversity and inclusion. Empowering student-athletes and administrators to find the voice to fight injustice. Holding those in campus communities and departments accountable for their actions and speech. Creating lasting change in campuses and communities through peaceful means and initiatives.”

The committee has held three meetings so far.

Smith’s activism began immediately after the May 25 death of George Floyd. She and a handful of college athletes organized a GoFundMe account with an initial goal of raising $1,000 for Black Lives Matter. They wound up drawing participation from more than 200 schools while raising nearly $80,000.

“It just blows my mind how much support was given to us, the athletic community, and to the Black Lives Matter movement,” Smith said.

One of the fund-raisers was a walk, run, bike and-or swim of 8.46 miles, which represented the eight minutes and 46 seconds that a police officer was videoed pinning Floyd’s neck to the ground with his knee.

“This event made me realize that activism isn’t just through protest,” Smith said. “You can use different avenues to support positive changes.”

Smith’s fall season with the Gaucho soccer team has been delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic. She played in UCSB’s final three matches of last year, recording 13 saves, after senior goalkeeper Hanna DeWeese suffered a wrist injury.

She was one of 12 UCSB women’s soccer players honored by the Big West for registering a grade-point average of 3.51 or higher last year.

WESTMONT GRADUATE TO KEEP PITCHING AT AZUSA

Pitcher Cory Dawson will get the chance to continue his baseball career even though he graduated from Westmont College last spring.

Dawson, who had his senior season with the Warriors curtailed by the COVID-19 pandemic, plans to pitch next season as a graduate student at Azusa Pacific.

All spring athletes were granted an extra year of eligibility because of last year’s shortened season. Westmont, however, does not have a graduate school.

Warriors coach Robert Ruiz, who served as an assistant coach at Azusa for five years, helped arrange Dawson’s graduate transfer. Dawson plans to pursue a master’s in business administration.

“He was our number one starter and in any other normal year in the MLB Draft he was a likely selection at the end of the season,” Ruiz said. “However, not only did his season get cut short, but so did the MLB Draft (from 40 rounds to just five).

“I couldn’t be happier that he has found a way to continue to pursue his education and pitch another season of college baseball, with the hopes of moving on to the professional level after that. I can’t think of a more deserving person for an opportunity like this.”

Dawson, who received All-Golden State Athletic Conference honors as a junior in 2019, was having another big season when the coronavirus halted play. He had posted a win-loss record of 5-1 with an earned run average of 2.91. His 63 strikeouts led the league and ranked fourth in the NAIA.

“I have so many great memories from my time at Westmont, and I am so glad that I was able to go there for four years,” Dawson said. “I will always remember the friendships that I made with my teammates and the little things like playing Mafia on the bus after a series win. I was always excited to go to practice every day because I knew that I would have a good time hanging out and competing with my friends.

“I’m proud to consider myself a Westmont alum and I’m looking forward to what this year has in store for me at APU.”

Dawson finishes his Westmont career ranked ninth in school history in strikeouts (171) and 14th in wins.

“Cory meant a great deal to our program,” Ruiz said. “He was a leader on the field, in the classroom and in our community. He earned respect by doing things the right way day in and day out. There is a reason he got better every year.

UCSB soccer goalkeeper Evann Smith (23) was one of nine freshmen to play for the Gaucho women last year and was one of three to start at least one match. She is flanked by four other rookies from last year: defender Emily Johnson (9), midfielder Sydney Arrillaga (30), midfielder Elizabeth Ramirez (28), and defender Claire Pappas (15). Another one of last year’s freshmen, Dylan Lewis, scored three goals and assisted two others while starting 16 matches.

“He left a mark on our program by teaching his teammates how to go about your business like a professional every single day. We will most certainly miss his presence in our program.”

SHOTWELL NAMED PRESEASON ALL-BIG SKY IN FOOTBALL

Although the Big Sky Conference has delayed the start of its football season until 2021, Santa Barbara’s Matt Shotwell was one of five Cal Poly athletes named to the Phil Steele Preseason All-Big Sky Conference Team.

Shotwell, a senior linebacker from Bishop Diego High, was chosen to the second team.

He led Cal Poly in tackles (89) and tackles for lost yardage (7.5) last year while being voted to the All-Big Sky Team Team. He also intercepted two passes, broke up two others and forced a fumble while earning most valuable defensive player honors for the Mustangs.

AUG 25; SEPT 1, 8, 15/2020--56372

Royce Rutledge Lewellen was born in St. Louis, MO to Ursul and Helen Lewellen, and raised in Jefferson City, MO, with his sister Ann. Following graduation from the University of Missouri, he moved to California where he was stationed at George Air Force Base during the Korean War. Discovering the Sierra Nevada Mountains nearby, he then worked briefly as a forest ranger before entering and graduating from the UC Berkeley School of Law. He moved to Solvang with his former wife, Judith Johnson, where they raised their three sons Mark, Mike and Dave. He was a Justice of the Peace in the Santa Ynez Valley and later a Santa Barbara County Superior Court Judge, sitting in Santa Maria. He participated in many community organizations, through which he worked with his future wife of 16 years, the former Ann Foxworthy, then president of Allan Hancock College. Following retirement, he partnered with Louis Lucas to form Lucas and Lewellen Vineyards. He had a great love of backpacking, organizing annual trips until just last year, and in his later years of walking with friends and joining them on hiking vacations abroad.

Lewellen had a distinguished legal career and was motivated to find work in a small town, where he could become involved in the community, and chose Solvang. In the 1960s and ‘70s, he was the part-time Justice of the Peace in the Santa Ynez Valley before being appointed a Superior Court judge. In that role he was idealistic about providing competent, fair and timely service, and advocated for improved court services in the northern part of the county. He held several statewide judicial positions, notably as a Director of the California Judges Association and the California Judges Marshals & Constables Association. The courthouse complex in Santa Maria was named in his honor – the Lewellen Justice Center.

He also had an accomplished business career. He was at one time a co-owner and director of Contract Freighters, Inc. (CFI), a nationwide long-haul trucking company based in Joplin, Missouri that was founded by his father. He was president of the Solvang Business Association and Solvang Chamber of Commerce, a member of the Board of the UCSB Economic Forecast Project for the Santa Ynez Valley, and one of the founders and a long-time member of the board of Community Bank of Santa Maria. Following his retirement from the bench, he partnered with local vineyard pioneer Louis Lucas to develop high-quality vineyards, forming Lucas and Lewellen Vineyards. Before long they were making highly-rated wine as well, his son Mike entered the business, and they established two tasting rooms in Solvang – Lucas & Lewellen, and Toccata.

Lewellen was a strong believer in community development and recognized locally and nationally for his philanthropy as evidenced in his involvement in a wide number of Santa Barbara County organizations. He was an elected Trustee on the Solvang School Board, President of the Solvang Rotary Club, and a founding Director of Solvang Theaterfest. He later served on the Allan Hancock College Foundation Board of Directors and was a founding Director of the PCPA Foundation. His service included membership on the boards of the Santa Maria YMCA and Family Service Agency of Santa Barbara. He was a Moderator of Santa Barbara Presbytery and president and member of the Santa Maria Wine & Food Society.

He is survived by his wife, Ann Foxworthy Lewellen, his three sons, Mark, Michael and David Lewellen, and four grandsons, Carey, Bevan, Ian and Gavin Lewellen. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests a contribution to the Solvang Theaterfest Capital Campaign (solvangfestivaltheater.org) or to PCPA (pcpa.org). A celebration of life will be scheduled at a later date.

Westmont College basketball coach John Moore, the sage of the Santa Barbara Athletic Round Table’s Monday press luncheons, has received a retirement gift from that local booster organization.

The Round Table announced last week that it is naming its annual College Coach of the Year Award after the Warriors’ longtime mentor.

“He’d come every week, without fail, and would always conclude the luncheons with a thoughtful message that tied together all the coaches’ presentations,” Round Table board member Gary Cunningham said. “I think this is a fitting way to thank him for all that he’s contributed to this community.”

Round Table president Ken Newendorp said Cunningham and several other board members approached him during their recent retreat and proposed the naming convention as a way “to honor John and keep him involved with us.”

“He’s such a wonderful human being and the epitome of what you want in a coach,” Newendorp said. “Sure, he won a lot of basketball games, but he also did it with character and integrity, and by being such a tremendous teacher.”

Moore, who remains at Westmont as both an associate athletic director and associate professor of kinesiology, retired this spring as the Warriors’ basketball coach after 27 seasons. He set the school record for basketball coaching victories with 558 and, combined with his five seasons at Fresno Pacific, retired with a win-loss coaching record of 637-352.

He also played point guard for the Warriors, handing out 422 assists — fourth all-time at Westmont — in just two seasons (1976-78) after having transferred from Cypress College. His appreciation for the Round Table began when former Westmont coach Chet Kammerer started to bring him to its press luncheons.

“It was such a privilege to be there with Chet and the other athletes,” Moore said. “What the Santa Barbara Athletic Round Table does is so different than in any other city. This is very uncommon and something that is very unique to the city of Santa Barbara.

“To be a part of it in this way is stunning and it is a great privilege, so I’m thankful for that.”

Moore was named NAIA National Coach of the Year last March after leading Westmont (26-5) to the Golden State Athletic Conference championship. The Warriors were seeded No. 2 in their bracket for the NAIA National Tournament — the highest placement in their history — but the event was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

He won the Round Table College Coach of the Year Award in 2015 when he guided Westmont to the NAIA Tournament final for the first time in school history. He guided the Warriors to an NAIA National berth 14 times, including the last six seasons in a row — the longest streak in school history.

“This is such a fitting recognition for coach Moore,” Warrior athletic director Dave Odell said. “Since the day he arrived at Westmont, John has been a wonderful representative of Westmont in the Santa Barbara sports community.

“His Round Table luncheon talks are legendary and his appreciation and care for youth and high school sports are exemplary. I anticipate that many of the coaches that win this award will be among the many that John influenced during his time at Westmont.”

The Round Table’s Coach of the Year awards for both the collegiate and high school levels will be presented next May during its Evening with the Athletes.

The organization has postponed the start of its Monday press luncheons until January because of the coronavirus.

“Our goal is to come back from Christmas break and hopefully have the luncheons in person,” Newendorp said. “Obviously, it has to coincide with the resumption of the sports seasons and be in compliance with health department guidelines.

“We might have to hold the luncheons outside somewhere. We’ve always partnered with Harry’s Plaza Café, so we’d like to see if that can be worked out. If not, we’ll look at other options, like perhaps having it at the carousel building at Chase Palm Park.”

The Round Table’s Hall of Fame induction banquet, originally scheduled for next month, has been postponed until October of 2021. It does plan to award its Scholar-Athlete of the Year Award and Phil Womble Ethics in Sports Award beginning this month. They are presented to one athlete apiece from each of the area’s high schools and colleges.

knowledge.

Then students get a summary about sexual anatomy and the reproduction cycle.

The third lesson discusses gender identities and sexual orientation through a presentation on the “Genderbread Person.” It teaches students that there’s a range of gender identities, gender expression and sexual orientation.

Many expressed appreciation that the curriculum is “nonjudgmental” during the board meeting. Others felt uncomfortable discussing LGBTQ sexuality in a classroom.

The fourth lesson is about abstinence. It acknowledges abstinence as the only 100% effective method to avoid pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases.

Next, students learn the types of birth control and look at their effectiveness. The sixth lesson explains pregnancy options and reinforces benefits of waiting until adulthood.

Teachers introduce sexually transmitted infections and their long-term effects. They outline contraceptives and their effectiveness at preventing these diseases while still promoting respect and dignity for those who live with STDs. The lesson also demonstrates condom application.

The eighth lesson answers questions about love and relationships. It helps students identify what a healthy relationship looks like and how it changes based on familial values and culture.

Then the class discusses body image. Students evaluate culture and media’s effect and its influence on sexuality.

Session 10 is about sexual assault. It identifies the right to refuse sex and what to do if assaulted. Teachers also explain how sexual exploitation can occur online.

Next, the curriculum culminates in a decision-making week. Students learn how to refuse sex and come up with a plan to protect sexual health.

Lesson 12 is a review and an evaluation of what the students learned.

“We’re not disregarding or taking away the responsibility of the parent,” board member Wendy Sims-Motem said. “If you feel so, then you have the right to say ‘This is not something my child should be exposed to,’ and we certainly want to respect that.”
