Prophets target shooting team wraps up season The Prophets Clay Target Shooting Team participated in the Illinois State High School Clay Target League tournament on Saturday, June 4, at the Brittany Shooting Park in Bunker Hill. The Prophets had 30 competitors in a field of more than 800 from across the state. As a team, the Prophets placed eighth out of 47 teams and racked up numerous season and personal bests. The Prophets also had many novice kids improve so much this season that they scored a trophy for second place. The state tournament has males and females competing in three skill levels – Varsity, JV and Novice. The shooters each have 100 targets during the competition,
with the top 5 scores contributing to the team’s overall standing. The Prophets’ top shooting squad was Dawson Christiansen, Max Vahle, Kyle Skromme, Hunter Harms and Frank Drennen. The top Novices were Bryce Folsom, Jaelin Hawkins, Grace Friedrichsen, Colin Ashdown and Taylor Folsom. Bryce Folsom brought home a medal for firstplace male in the Novice category and Sabrina Soleta closed out her high school career with a medal for second-place female in the conference category. Head coach Gabe Olinger said he’s very proud of the team for putting in a lot of hard work on the field and for making gun safety a top priority. The kids also have
enjoyed making new friends and having a lot of fun, both during the regular season and the tournament. This year’s Prophets team consisted of 36 athletes from Prophetstown and Erie High Schools, coached by Olinger and assistants Darryl Drennen, Mike Drennan, Barney Olinger and Tad Skromme. The team also took third in conference out of seven teams during the regular season. The Prophets will be losing several senior shooters who have been with the team for the past four to six years, but the young shooters are showing a lot of progress and will be back next year for another exciting season.

cil Bluffs, Iowa. She graduated from Iowa State College with a degree in Home Economics Journalism. At Iowa State, Nancy met Samuel Woodburn, a farmer from Port Byron, Illinois. They were married on March 28, 1953. At Sam’s suggestion, Nancy graduated early and they were married the following week so that the wedding would not interfere with planting season. Although raised as a city girl, Nancy quickly embraced country life. She and Sam farmed for 40 years and raised five children on the family farm in Port Byron. Nancy hauled grain wagons, rendered lard, and managed the garden and orchards from which she preserved family-sized quantities of corn, tomatoes, green beans, and applesauce. Nancy was very active in the Riverdale schools and Fairfield Methodist Church. In addition to attending countless music concerts and sporting events, she served as
4-H leader, room mother, Sunday and Bible school teacher, book review leader, band parent and much more. She was an excellent cook, especially known for her yeast breads. She routinely provided five dozen dinner rolls for church suppers, and cinnamon rolls or tea rings to friends and neighbors when they needed a lift. Nancy carried on her mother’s tradition of writing to her children regularly once they left home. What started as a one-ply letter to Anne at college eventually grew into a regular five-ply letter to all five children. Nancy eventually replaced her manual typewriter with a computer as she continued to produce a weekly newsletter until she was almost 90. Nancy loved birds and flowers throughout her life, and enjoyed quilting with her Sew & Tell group. Her greatest joy was her family, especially get-togethers where stories and memories were shared around the dining
room table. She was a loving wife, mother, and friend, and cared for Sam devotedly during his ten-year battle with Parkinson’s. Nancy is survived by her five children, Anne Woodburn of St. Paul, Carol (Roger) Strandlund of Moline, Tom Woodburn of Moline, Mark Woodburn (Jane Landwehr) of Minneapolis, and David (Sarah) Woodburn of St. Louis along with six grandchildren, two great grandchildren, and brother John (Teddy) Voss. She was preceded in death by her husband Sam, brother Ralph Voss, and granddaughter Catherine Woodburn. The family would like to extend a special thank-you to faithful friends Janice and Marilee for the loving support they showed Nancy the past few years. Condolences may be shared at www. gibsonbodefh.com

On October 2, 1959 he mar-
ried Roberta J. Houzenga at Spring Valley Reformed Church in Fulton. Thurman was first employed at Nielson’s for eleven years; he then worked for and retired from Nestle Purina after 37 years. He was a member of the former First Baptist Church of Fulton and had attended the First Baptist Church in Morrison. For many years he volunteered for the Fulton Ambulance. Thurman was an avid car enthusiast and a member of the NHRA. He enjoyed racing, drag racing, and tinkering with engines. He had an affection for dogs
and loved blue grass and southern gospel music. Survivors include his wife, Roberta; one daughter, Jolene (Michael) DeBerg of Clinton, IA; two sons, Michael Lane of LeClaire, IA and T. Dale (Robin) Lane of Russell, KS; ten grandchildren; eight great grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents; two brothers, James R. Lane, and one in infancy.

Live music is filling the air at Prophetstown’s Eclipse Square Park on Friday nights with the return of the Winning Wheels Summer Concert Series. This year’s series features nine concerts scheduled through July, up from six last year, with the shows running from 7 to 9 p.m. For the past two Fridays, people arrived in vehicles, golf carts, bikes and wheelchairs to find a spot on the lawn to enjoy live music and a family friendly atmosphere that includes kids at play, babies in strollers, and adorable dogs on leashes. Tacos and Pizza Joe’s pizza were on sale in the park’s pavilion. Mike Chastain, event coordinator and Winning Wheels Safety Director, helped start the concert series to foster connections between the community and residents at the brain and spinal cord rehabilitation facility. The first year was held at the Winning Wheels pavilion, but it was later moved to Eclipse Square to get a better community turnout. This is the fifth year for the concerts in the park, though they were canceled in 2020

The Gray Wolf Band entertained the crowd during the Winning Wheels Summer Concert Series kickoff Friday, June 3. because of the pandemic. “It’s all about us working together, enjoying live music and getting to know each other after COVID,” Chastain said. Winning Wheels staffers are selling concert T-shirts and 50/50 progressive raffle tickets at each show, with all proceeds to support
Winning Wheels activities. The next concert will be on Friday, June 17, with the band Atomic Blender, followed by 3 On the Tree on June 24, Mountain Swallower on July 1, Down 24 on July 8, MT Pockets on July 15, Fast Lane on July 22 and Jim Ryan on July 29.

Whiteside, Lee farm bureaus matching $10,000 in fundraiser for SVCC ag program The Whiteside and Lee county farm bureaus are joining together to match up to $10,000 in donations to benefit the agriculture program at Sauk Valley Community College. The farm bureau foundations are launching a campaign to grow SVCC’s ag animal science lab running through Aug. 31. The goal is to expand the animal science labs to increase hands-on learning opportunities for students. Students will be able to perform anatomy and physiology activities as they relate to animal reproduction, nutrition and digestion and physical movements. “Livestock agriculture is crucial across the entire state, and we have several SVCC ag students who are animal science majors who will transfer on to veterinary technician programs or to universities as pre-veterinary medicine
majors,” ag instructor Kevin Larsen said. “These enhanced labs will help those students succeed in the next level of their education and help them make an impact on their communities.” Customized training will be available with portable lab kits, and collaboration for training sessions will be available to county farm bureaus, area vet clinics, county 4-H groups and others in need of training. “Better hands-on instruction leads to better learning, and students will have these experiences to draw from when applying for jobs and working in the animal science field,” he said. Go to svcc.edu/give and choose SVCC Animal Science Lab to donate, or contact the Sauk Valley College Foundation at 815-835-6260 or foundation@svcc.edu for information.

Revitalize Erie would like to express its immense gratitude to the Hannis family for their generosity and dedication to the community. Paul and Rusty Hannis helped the organization raise $1,000 for the Margaret Park Redesign Project by donating items collected by their antique-loving parents and allowing Revitalize Erie to host the fundraiser at their family home during Erie’s villagewide garage sales June 3-4. The items donated were just the tip of the iceberg of treasures their parents collected over the years. The Hannis family will be having an auction and an estate sale later this summer and you will not want to miss the chance to take home a piece of Judy and Mervin’s antique collections. Pictured at the sale on Saturday, June 4, is Revitalize Erie volunteer Kindyl Weber (left) and Village of Erie AmeriCorps intern Katelin Bridgman.

GLIMPSES OF THE PAST - FULTON
1962: Retired postal worker accepts job as police officer 60 Years
June 13, 1962
Sixty volunteer members of the Citizens Advisory Council gathered at the Fulton Junior High School to further their endorsement of the school tax rate referendum and to hear Loren Young, county superintendent of schools. Young said that Fulton School District definitely needs a tax increase. He said Fulton has a fine school system and the citizens can be proud but it can only be maintained through this justifiable and moderate increase. Harold Blodgett, a resident of Fulton and retired postal employee, has assumed duties as Fulton’s second full-time police officer. Mayor Wiersema announced Mr. Blodgett will share police duties with Chief of Police Howard Swanson so at least one officer will be on duty at all hours of the day and night.

The reality of monkeypox is discussed By STEPHEN D. HARRISON, M.D.
Just when we thought we had enough hype on COVID-19, we now have another contender. Enter the condition known as monkeypox. It turns out this is not a new condition but has been around since the 1950s. The reality is that there have been such few cases it has never gathered much press. While it shares some features with smallpox, the mortality rate is strikingly low in comparison. For smallpox, that number is 30% while for monkeypox it is generally around 3%. The disease is distinctly different from COVID-19, which often travels through the air in tiny droplets by speaking, sneezing or coughing. Monkeypox generally requires close physical contact with an infected person or their contaminated clothing. However, it is not a sexually trans-
mitted disease. What it does share in common with COVID-19 is an animal host in the proximity of human beings. That is how the disease is initially contacted and propagated. The original source of monkeypox was actually found in a species of squirrel. In addition, the main reservoir of monkeypox is actually rodents. However, the rodents themselves do not generally spread the disease to humans. The original outbreak among humans occurred in Africa much like the AIDS epidemic. What these conditions have in common is the proximity of humans encroaching on areas of animal habitats because of the destruction of that habitat. Like many viruses, the monkeypox triggers flu-like symptoms which may be followed by a rash. Typically the rash appears first on the face and then may show up on other parts of
the body. The rash often transforms from red spots into pus-like formations of blisters. Those blisters eventually scab and fall off. Most often the symptoms go away on their own within a few weeks, even without treatment. There is no specific treatment for the infection once it has taken hold. However, there are licensed vaccines that appear to be somewhat protective even if given after exposure. The small pox vaccination may be somewhat effective because of the similar nature of the conditions. Although there may be some treatments allowed for emergency use, none of them have been greatly studied likely because of the relatively in frequent nature of the condition. At the time of this writing, you have a larger chance of being harmed by watching the news then you do of contracting monkeypox.
budget proposal two weeks ago, Thomson officials again had hopes that at least part of the newly built correctional center would be open. Ryan proposed a $590 million in tax increases to add money to the state coffers. However, after the refusal of state legislators to approve the tax increases, Ryan cut $502 million from the state budget. Unless lawmakers are called back to Springfield to work on the budget to allow money for the Thomson facility, it will remain empty.

ERIE MIDDLE SCHOOL
The Ancestor Project As one of the final projects of the year, seventh graders at Erie Middle School were challenged to pick an ancestor, or someone they could research and learn more about, in order to write a story telling about their life. Students conducted interviews with family members and some were able to gather additional resources and pictures to help tell their story. While there were many great stories written, not all will be published. This project was a collaborative effort between students in history classes with Mrs. Kruthoff and Mr. Armstrong, English class with Mrs. Wolf and their families.
Kelly Carr By LEXI KAPPLE Whoever is happy will make others happy, too, by Anne Frank. Kelly Carr is a 59-year-old married woman with three children. Tara is her oldest daughter, next comes her first son, Kyle, and then her youngest is Cameren. She lives in Moline, but also has a Florida home in Boca Raton. She has three granddaughters, Lexi, Kaci and Naomi. Kelly Carr is a role model because of how her childhood shaped her, the influence her adult life had and her fighting spirit. Kelly was born on Jan. 22, 1963, in Muscatine, Iowa. She grew up in a Greek family of five with a sister and a brother. Her dad’s name is Franklin Newburn Jr. He was the president of a Japanese corporation called Omron. He was in Japan during a lot of her childhood. Work was a top priority for him. He also was a singer who had his own quartet show on Wednesdays. He was in a musical group named The Moline Boys Choir and they had their own album. Her mom’s name is Virginia Lee Carpenter, but they call her Ginny. Ginny was a happy person and sang to her family all the time. Ginny is only 5 feet tall, so Kelly never had big hopes for her height. Kelly heard her mom sing so much throughout her childhood, but laughs to this day because she still can’t sing a note. Growing up her sister Dawn Ericson and her were not super close because they always argued. Her brother Franklin was never a big part of her life, just another background character in her story. Kelly loved to read, ride bikes and hang out with her friend Marie. They have been best friends for many years. Her parents got divorced five years after their marriage and her dad moved to Arizona with his new
wife. Kelly went to school like any other kid. She went to Davenport until she was nine, then to East Moline High School. Once graduating from East Moline High School, Kelly went off to college. Kelly Carr’s adult life had a great influence on her road to becoming a role model. She went to college to become a nurse. It was hard and took a while. Surprisingly, she enjoyed it. Her first real nursing job was at Illini Hospital, in Silvis, where she was put into a medical surgical area. She then went to work at Rock Island County and was the assistant director. An assistant director is the person who announces if someone has passed or was really sick. She saw death so often it started scaring her how normal it was after a while. She truly enjoyed her job as a nurse, but being a nurse was not all rainbows and sunshine. At 19 she had gotten married to Joel Ambrozi and they had two children, Tara and Kyle. After seven years of marriage they decided to get a divorce. Her life was going downhill because her grandmother had just had a heart attack and was in the hospital. She would visit the hospital every night to turn on “Wheel of Fortune” for her grandmother even though she was in a coma and not responsive. Her grandmother passed away and sadly 10 days later her grandfather also passed; some say from a broken heart. After this, nursing became even more important to her. Kelly was a single mother during part of her college nursing years and had to take care of the kids partly on her own. She then married Randy Carr. It was a unique way that they reconnected. During Randy’s first marriage he got in a car accident and died. Randy was shocked back to life twice. When he woke up he
didn’t say his wife’s name he called for Kelly. Randy and Kelly were friends, but they hadn’t spoken in years. Randy and his wife got divorced years later and he then married Kelly. Randy Carr’s family owned Hiland Toyota. Randy’s dad Wendall was the creator of Hiland Toyota, and also owned seven car dealerships without finishing high school. Wendal married Barb. She finished schooling and also went to college for business. He sadly died while flying an airplane. He was the pilot with six passengers, flying to scuba dive and something went wrong with the plane. He crashed on the tennis courts, which happened to be his favorite sport, in Boca Raton near where Kelly and Randy live now. After Kelly and Randy got married, they had a child named Cameren. He was born with autism and cerebral palsy, and was expected to die when he was young. That part of her life was very hard; she never could have expected having a child with a disability. He didn’t crawl or walk until he was about 2 years old and was barely talking. He was slower to grow up than the other kids, but he miraculously survived longer than the doctors expected. Cameren is still alive today and is 24 years old. Her oldest daughter Tara is 38 and works at a bank. She is married to Mike Kapple. They have two children named Lexi and Kaci. Her oldest son Kyle is 33 and works at Deere Employees Credit Union. He is married to Chelsea Clearman and they have a child named Naomi. Kelly is still happily married to Randy Carr. She enjoys drinking bubble tea (that doesn’t taste like perfume), swimming, and going to Von Maur with Tara, Lexi and Kaci. Kelly’s adult life influenced her to become a great role model.
Kelly Carr is a great role model because of her fighting spirit. Her son Cameren went to normal school but they didn’t have the proper education for him so Kelly decided to take a stand. Kelly fought for proper education at school for children with disabilities, since the school originally told her to simply go to private school. The reason she fought instead of just sending him to private school was because it cost $100,000 a year for private school. She became an advocate for fighting for autistic education in school. She fought for five years and ended up getting a year’s worth of money for Cameren to attend private school. A little while later the school created an autistic education program so everyone could learn. Kelly Carr’s fighting spirit makes her a great role model and helped countless kids and their families who needed an advocate for kids with disabilities in school. She truly is an inspiring woman! I learned a lot from my grandma during this project. I never really put into perspective that my grandma was a kid like everyone else. She had a very interesting life and I enjoyed learning about everything in her lifetime. She taught me that when you struggle you need to get back up and keep going. I thoroughly enjoyed this project, and am happy that I learned so much. My grandma taught me a lot during this project. Kelly Carr is a role model because of how her childhood shaped her, the influence her adult life had, and her fighting spirit. Her childhood shaped her into a role model in ways such as her home life and dreams. Her adult life influenced her to become a role model in ways such as her job, marriage and children. Her fighting spirit shaped her into a role model by fighting for autistic education. If my grandma can do all these amazing things, there is nothing she can’t conquer.

Continued from Page 10 Nelda Klendworth was born on Oct. 23, 1930, at the Jane Lamb Hospital in Clinton, Iowa. Her parents were Sylvester and Estella Wildman. She was the second child of four. Before Nelda was born, no one knew that her mother was pregnant with Nelda. Her mother had a floating kidney which made her stomach look bigger. Only her doctor and her parents knew she was pregnant. The day before Nelda was born, her mom hosted a Ladies Aid group luncheon as President and played cards with her uncle. The next day, Nelda’s parents told her uncle they had a baby. He said that was the last thing he would have expected. Her older brother, Lloyd, was a sophomore in high school when he got the news that he had a little sister. Nelda’s siblings are Lloyd Wildman, Darold Wildman, and Robert Wildman or (Bob.) They grew up on a farm about five miles from Prophetstown and went to school in a one-room schoolhouse. Growing up, Nelda’s chores included discing up the fields, putting corn into the corn crib, gathering eggs for food and mowing the yard with a real mower. She also liked to study in her little treehouse, and she would go sledding in the winter. Nelda also liked to climb trees, play basketball with her family, and play croquet with her childhood best friend. When Nelda was 12 years old they went to Wisconsin and Iowa for a vacation. When Nelda was in school she enjoyed playing basketball with her friends. When she was in high school, she got her first job as a reporter for the local newspaper. She usually got the local news from the Burgess kids, but one time when one of them was sick, she wrote it down and it was published. When my grandma got her driver’s license she didn’t have to do the test.
She went down to the police station and told the chief that she had been driving since she could reach the pedals, then her mother guessed she had already driven between 2,000-3,000 miles. The chief said, “Well I guess you earned your license. Well done.” In eithth grade, Nelda’s class had to take a large spelling test but the teacher graded her paper wrong, marking many incorrect that were not. Then the teacher realized it and felt pretty bad about how she graded the paper. That’s just her childhood and her school years leading up to her high school years and college years. During her college years and her high school years she got married. Nelda got married on Dec. 3, 1949, to Jack Klendworth when she was 19 years old. Jack and Nelda’s dates were typically roller skating or bowling in Clinton. When they had their wedding, it was so small that only about 200 people were there. While she was married to Jack she had three children: David, Doug and Ruth Ann. The jobs she had while she was a parent was writing minutes for Prophetstown town meetings, she was a secretary for Eclipse Mower Company, and she helped clean the houses of her neighbors. After she finished with those jobs she worked for Rock River as a clerk, bookkeeper, receptionist, and a secretary. Her favorite hobbies around that time were card writing, gardening, playing cards, cooking, and entertaining people. She remembers that in fifth or sixth grade, she and her friends went to steal some watermelons from a watermelon patch, but they never found them. It turned out that the patch was on the other side of the road. Throughout her life, Nelda was involved in many organizations. Some of them were the household science club, the red hats society, modern homemakers, the junior women’s
club, a mission group at church, builders, and the bowling league. When my grandpa was still alive, Nelda and Jack went to all 50 states, most of Canada and Mexico, but not to Europe. Their longest trip was three weeks to Nova Scotia with Ryan and Christy. Nelda and Jack started heading south for the winter and they spent the majority of their time in winter in Florida. My grandma’s most stressful experiences she had was when one of the kids or Jack was hospitalized. Some of Nelda’s favorites: her favorite book is the Bible, her favorite drink was iced tea, her family tradition was frozen punch and Oreo dessert for Christmas as well as reading the story of Jesus’ birth, and her favorite restaurant was Biaggi. My grandma’s childhood best friend was Mary Simpson and Shirley Sharper was her high school best friend. In high school she played the Hawaiian Guitar, the telephone, the piano and the saxophone but she also started to learn how to play the harp. This is what happened when she was in high school going to college. When Nelda retired, she loved to dress up for every holiday with Jack. She also loved to go watch her children and the rest of the family play their sports. One of her favorite quotes she always said was, “I want my children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren to always remember I love them and they are so special. I love being a mom and grandparent for all my grandkids that will come.” In my grandma’s free time she loved to go up to the golf course and golf with her friends if they were free. She enjoyed singing and playing the piano for Christmas dinner and reading the Bible of Jesus’ birth. Whenever my grandma was around visiting us she always reminded people to do good in the world. Nelda was very popular
around town because she was very friendly toward everyone she met. Sadly, Nelda passed away in 2022, at the age of 91. She was a resident of Erie, Illinois. She is survived by her children, Douglas Klendworth, Ruth Ann, Pam Klendworth, as well as 16 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren. Nelda was preceded in death by her parents, her husband and her brother, Robert. She passed away on Feb. 17, 2022, in Bettendorf, Iowa, at the Clarissa C. Cook Hospice House. Doing this report, I learned that Nelda was a very positive woman throughout her life. She cared for everyone she was around even if she didn’t know them. Nelda loved to do everything outside even if she was sick and tired. Every year she loved going on vacations to the Dells for her birthday. I feel a lot closer to her now after doing this report. I feel like I know her much more now. The life lesson I learned is that everyone cares about you but sometimes it’s hard for some people to show it. Doing this report I feel happy that I get to know her better but also sort of sad because I have to remember all the times we had together before she passed. I see that things have a positive impact on us throughout our life and that people come and go. My grandma is the best person in the world because she is a good role model for young people. She was very positive to everyone she met, and finally, she held the family together. Nelda is a great family member because she was always there for us through the ups and downs. She was a good role model because she let people look up to her even if she didn’t know them. She is the best grandma in the world because she loved to come and watch the sports my brother and I played. I loved doing this project even if it made me a little sad.

Locals help make history at Millikin By TY REYNOLDS
treynolds@shawmedia.com One thing Morrison native Katie Tenboer and Sterling native Gretchen Gould have had a lot of in their softball careers is winning. The 2022 season at Millikin University was no exception for the two standouts from northwest Illinois. Gould, a junior first baseman, and Tenboer, the co-head coach, helped lead Millikin to the NCAA Division III World Series for the first time in program history last month. The Big Blue set a school record with 37 wins, and won the College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin regular-season title for the second straight season. For Tenboer, a 2007 Morrison High School graduate who played D-III softball at Central College in Pella, Iowa, the trip to Salem, Virginia, for the championships was a long time coming. “The last 15 years, I’ve been dreaming of Salem,” Tenboer said. “When I went to college in the fall of ‘07, the first thing I heard about was Salem; making it to the national tournament, that’s always the goal, and it took 15 years for me to finally reach it. “There was so much anticipation for me personally, and it was fun to see THE Salem, the place we talked about day after day, year after year.” But more than the joy and excitement she felt, Tenboer said it was more pride and happiness for the players that went out on the field and got the job done. “As a coach, you try to instill a vision in the players, and you’ve got to get a lot of people to buy into wanting to create a culture and believe in a vision they can’t tangibly see,” Tenboer said. “To get to see a group of people who believed in that, who had that blind faith and trust in us to put in the time and the work and believe what we were saying, it’s really great for that to be validated. “This is something no Millikin softball team had accomplished before, and it was really special to watch all that time and work and investment in each other come to fruition for the players. They trusted us when we told them it would pay off, not knowing if it actually would happen, and they were focused and ready and dedicated to make it happen.” Gould cited the team’s focus and determination as the key elements in the historical postseason run, and the special season in general that saw the Big Blue finish 37-9, including a 13-3 mark in the CCIW. “We just set small goals throughout the year, starting with a conference title, then we started striving for regionals after that,” Gould said. “Honestly, I don’t think any of us really looked that far ahead; we were always just focusing on the week in front of us. “Overall, the ultimate goal was to make it to the national tournament, but we knew if we just prepared for the games in front of us, that would take care of itself.” Gould was a three-sport standout at Sterling, excelling in softball, basketball and volleyball. She was part of four straight regional titles in softball and a member of the first state championship volley-

Tenboer, a Morrison native, led the Big Blue to the D-III championships for the first time in program history. ball team for the Golden Warriors in 2018. She started her Millikin career as a third baseman, where she played in all 13 games as a freshman during the 2020 COVID season, hitting .381 with 12 RBIs. As a sophomore in 2021, she hit .283 with 22 RBIs in 43 games, earning second-team all-CCIW honors. This season, she moved across the infield to first base, and started 44 of the Big Blue’s 46 games. She hit .313 with 16 RBIs, 18 runs, and five doubles, and she struck out only 12 times in 112 at-bats. “I think for me, the biggest challenge was switching over to first base,” Gould said. “In travel ball and high school, I mostly played third base, so that was a big transition. Defensively, it’s a big change at this level; the girls are a lot quicker and more strategic with where they place the ball, and being more aware on defense was something I had to adjust to a lot in college.” But the sales pitch Tenboer gave her during the recruiting process proved to be prophetic, and Gould is excited to have such success with a coach who hails from the same area as she does. “When I originally visited Millikin, Coach Tenboer said we were going to go to nationals,” Gould said. “I was a junior in high school, and after playing on such a competitive high school team for a coach who sets really big goals for us, it was nice to transition to the collegiate level and have those same high expectations. “It’s been a great experience here, and it’s really
awesome that I got to play for a local coach. I love it at Millikin, both playing softball and the education I’m receiving.” Tenboer, who was a pitcher and first baseman on the first Morrison team to make it to the state tournament in 2007, said Gould brings the perfect attitude and personality to the team. “Her adaptability is such a plus for us as we move pieces around and find the right fit, and she’s just really grown over the past three years,” Tenboer said. “It’s been really fun to watch her and share with her, talk about our common background in greater northwest Illinois. “She’s definitely a calming, mature influence, and provides a lot of the connection that brings people together. It’s been fun to watch her grow into that role, and her play on the field speaks for itself. It’s a true joy to be around her and have her in our program, and I have a lot of pride that she’s helping us write history at Millikin.” Tenboer has helped shape the Big Blue program as well. She was named head coach in 2015, and has been the co-head coach with Whitney Sowers since 2018. She led Millikin to the CCIW regular-season title in 2017 with a 32-12 record, followed by records of 22-14 in 2018 and 26-12 in 2019. In 2021, the Big Blue were 31-13 and won CCIW regular-season and tournament titles. They hosted an NCAA regional and finished the season ranked No. 20 in the country, helping to set the table for this spring.

Both Tenboer and Gould believe the experience the players got playing in a regional last season helped this year when Millikin found itself in that position again. “Being in the regional last year was extremely helpful for us,” Gould said. “We had a lot of girls returning this year, and we were a lot more comfortable playing in high-pressure games. We also knew that no matter who we played in the postseason, they were going to bring their best game and we were going to see everyone’s No. 1 pitcher, so we were prepared for things like that because of our experience last year.” “You can talk about it all you want, but you can’t make up for it and create experience without going through it,” Tenboer said. “It certainly helped us, and the kids were excited to see that level of competition again. We had a little more of a calm, beenthere feeling; we understood the process and how different the regional was than the regular season, and that showed in how we played.” The Big Blue opened their regional with a 5-4 win over Ohio Northern University, then defeated Illinois College 7-0 and Alma College 8-1 to earn a trip to the super regional – which was right back at the Workman Family Softball Field in Decatur. “We felt a lot more confident at our home field, and we were really excited when we found out we’d get to play there,” Gould said. “We got to sleep in our own beds, and playing on our home field, we were used to being on that turf, and we were comfortable with it. Plus, there were a lot of students there, and our families, since it was right at home, and I think it definitely helped us.” Wartburg College visited for the super regional, and Millikin won the first two games in the best-ofthree format – though it seemed to last much longer. The Big Blue won 9-5 in the opener on Friday, May 20, watching a 4-0 lead turn into a 5-4 deficit before closer Charley Warlow shut Wartburg down for the final three innings as Millikin rallied. The next day, Game 2 was moved up to 11 a.m. because of pending inclement weather. Both teams warmed up, the national anthem was played, the lineups were announced, and the first Millikin batter stepped up to the plate – but before the first pitch, there was a lightning delay. The game resumed early in the afternoon, and the teams got four innings in before another delay. This time, the restart came around 6 p.m., and the teams got into the sixth inning before another delay. The plan was to restart the game at 9 p.m., but around 8, the decision was made to finish it Sunday. It was over in short order Sunday morning, but the length and situation of the game was something neither Tenboer nor Gould had ever experienced before. “The last pitch was about 24 hours after the game started, and the stop-and-go was just nerve-wracking,” Tenboer said. “You just don’t know how it’s going to turn out until that last pitch, and you just hope you’re putting the right pieces together and putting the players in position to be successful.” “It was definitely a challenge,” Gould added. “We all tried to stay relaxed, and that helped us get through it. We stayed calm, we played with confidence, and we valued every at-bat and pitch, just kept trying to score runs. We knew Wartburg was a good offensive team, and it was a such a long game that if we lost focus, it could’ve gone the other way. We didn’t let that happen.” Take away the delays, and the game was a good

one. Millikin led 8-0 in the fifth and was three outs away from finishing it off by run-rule, then Wartburg scored five runs in the bottom of the fifth before the final delay Saturday night. But the Big Blue pulled out a 10-6 win, and the celebration the team and its fans had been anticipating for 24 hours finally arrived. Even in the postgame moments, Tenboer found herself reflecting a bit on the road that it took to get to Salem. “After the initial celebration, Whitney and I just watched the excitement of the players and the fans, and our phones were just blowing up,” Tenboer said. “We both kind of looked at each other and said, ‘Wow!’ “We talk to the kids a lot about these things being all about the people. You experience these things with one another, and that’s the best part of it. To see these home fans so excited and rallying around this team, seeing the blind faith the players put in our vision pay off, that’s what’s special about it.” Millikin lost its first two games at the D-III World Series, falling 6-5 to Salisbury University and 8-1 to Eastern Connecticut State. But that didn’t take away from the experience for Gould and her teammates. “It was a really amazing trip, and just so cool for our team to come together and be able to enjoy that experience,” Gould said. “It was something that we were all working toward for so long that it almost didn’t feel real when we achieved it. But once we got there, all that went out the window and we were ready to compete again.” As the new kids on the block at the national championships, there was the sense that the Big Blue needed to show what they had in order to prove they belonged with the best. The fact that they did that was what made their coach the proudest. “It’s funny a little bit, because any team that’s new to the World Series wants to show people that
we’re here for a reason, that it’s not a mistake or a fluke,” Tenboer said. “Even though our RPI was fifth in the nation and we showed throughout the year we’re very capable of making that run, you still want to prove yourself. But this team showed that Salem is where they belonged, and it was fun for them to feel that validation. “And now that we’ve broken through and know how to make this happen, we want to keep doing it. I hope that we’re now a mainstay in that realm, and the girls know that they have to show up every day to prepare to make it back there.”

The Highway Construction Careers Training Program (HCCTP) at Black Hawk College aims to prepare people to work in the building trades and to increase the number of minorities, women and disadvantaged persons working on Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) projects. The HCCTP is funded by an IDOT grant, and Black Hawk College is one of only 10 community colleges in the state to offer the program. In the last year, 13 of 17 HCCTP grads were accepted into the building trades at the end of their BHC training. A new HCCTP session begins Monday, Aug. 15, with instruction and hands-on training 36
hours per week for 13 weeks. Like apprenticeships in the building trades, the HCCTP is “earn while you learn.” There is no cost to students accepted into the program, and students receive a stipend of $10 per hour. Interested students MUST attend an orientation. Choose from these sessions: Monday, June 27, at 10 a.m. Tuesday, June 28, at 6 p.m. Friday, July 8, at 2 p.m. Tuesday, July 12, at 10 a.m. Thursday, July 14, at 6 p.m. Eligible candidates must be 18 or older, have a high school diploma or GED, have a valid driver’s license, be interested in the construction trades and be drug-free.

Spring Valley Reformed welcomes No Worries to the outdoor stage Spring Valley Reformed Church, 10960 Spring Valley Road, Fulton, welcomes No Worries to the outdoor stage at 6 p.m. Sunday, June 19. Please join us in the valley for an evening of praise and worship. The concert will be moved indoors in case of inclement weather. A freewill offering will be taken. No Worries is a local bluegrass gospel band that was formed in 2019. They specialize in playing for churches, festivals, local celebrations, parties and nursing homes. A seasoned musician and Stockton resident, Terry O’Malley comes from a musical family. He plays numerous instruments including banjo, guitar, mandolin and bass. His masculine harmonies enhance the female vocals,
which makes the band’s three part harmony solid. The band’s lead vocalist, Mary Jean Hammer accompanies herself on the mandolin or guitar. Her heartfelt passion and sweet voice brings a solid foundation to the group. She resides near Apple River, where she and her husband own a family business. Also from Stockton, Mary Berryhill brings the bass beat and adds some exciting vocal leads as well as some very tight harmonies, which perfectly rounds out the group. Berryhill also is the booking agent and business manager. The band plays many genres of music, including gospel, old-time country favorites, folk, pop and old-time rock ’n’ roll. The three love to share their joy of music with others and spreading God’s word.
