Award winning wine, just a short drive to Peru

by Ashley Flynn features@thepaperofwabash.com Wine enthusiasts need not travel far to satisfy their taste buds. Just north of Peru off US 31 sits an 80-acre orchard that handcrafts a variety of flavorful, crisp – and not to mention award winning – wines and hard ciders. McClure’s Orchard/Winery, a family operated business, sold their first batch of alcohol in 2010 after months of trial and error. Jason McClure and his wife Alison came up with the idea to add wine and hard cider to the orchard after making a few batches at home. “To get all the different flavors, we experimented everything with a five gallon batch. If we like it, we go bigger. If we don’t like it, we will tweak something in those five gallons to find something we like. That’s how all these were created,” Jason McClure told The Paper of Wabash. The winery currently offers over 20 varieties of alcohol, but a few batches have sold out. There’s something for everyone, Jason says. “(I like) coming up with drinks that not everyone is going to like, but with everything we offer, everybody can find something. I like the challenge,” he said. “We currently have a couple at home that I’m excited about, but those won’t be out for a while.” Many of the wines and ciders have earned awards including Jason’s favorite, Goldensap. The website describes

Goldensap as, “7.8 percent ABV; apple dominates the nose, this cider is dry and bitter to the palate. We took juice from only two varieties of apples and fermented them until the yeast expired. We kept the cider on the lees until bottling to get a product reminiscent of the days of yore. Goldensap won a bronze medal at the 2012 GLINTCAP Competition.” Jason says he is most proud of the wines dedicated to his loved ones. Granny’s and Grandpa’s, also GLINTCAP award winners, are two bourbon barrel aged ciders dedicated to his grandparents whom he says have a huge impact on his life. Alison’s Jubilee, a 12 percent alcohol by volume, won a bronze medal at the 2012 Indy International Wine Competition. “It’s got all my favorite things and hers. It’s a cider fermented with honey, black raspberries and hops,” said Jason. Alison’s Jubilee comes out around Valentine’s Day, which was labeled with a purple design for Alison one year for the holiday. Several other wines and ciders are also award winners including Indiana’s first Ice Cider. The McClure’s Ice Cider won a double gold at the 2013 Indy International and was awarded a trophy for the Best IndianaGrown Fruit Wine of the Year. “(I do this because of) my passion for alcohol and hand crafted hard cider. To be able to continue what we do here on the farm. The way we get through the fruit is

JASON MCCLURE STANDS BEHIND THE WINE TASTING counter ready to serve customers. McClure’s Orchard/Winery handcrafts apple wines and ciders, many of which are award winners. (photo by Ray Fair) we wholesale them out or turn them into value added products. We put more time and energy into this, but it’s fun to do,” Jason said. Most of the wines include several different types of apples. The orchard has approximately 5,000 apple trees with 100 varieties of apples. Many apples can be used for a variety of purposes, but some are used exclusively for wine making. It takes approximately 14 pounds of fruit to make a gallon of cider. “One thing I really like is using all the fruit. I like the whole process from start to finish,” Jason said. “It’s what brought me back. The idea of being able to grow and eat it and live off the land, that’s what got me out of the classroom (Jason is a former teacher) to do this for a living. It’s a lot more hours a week, more difficult at times, but the rewards are different. It’s a job, but it’s a job you can’t separate from.” Wine making and working on the orchard is like having two-full time jobs, Jason says. He works year around through the different seasons. Right now it’s picking season. Starting in November they trim the trees, and in February and March they spray the crops and move on into planting. “There’s no down times, just slower times,” Jason said. The Tate family started the orchard 100 years ago and sold it in the 1970s. It went through a few different owners until the McClure family bought the orchard over 15 years ago. Jerry and Paige McClure took over along with their three children Jason, Jonathan and Megan. When they bought the orchard, the trees were over grown and the ground was unkempt. They had Purdue specialist come out, inspect the land and give them tips on how to bring the orchard back to life. They started with 25 varieties of apples, but have since grown to 100 and added other produce such as asparagus, pump-

kins, berries, grapes and peaches. The McClure family has expanded along with the farm, as each of the three children are now grown and married. Jonathan and his wife Shannessy have two children Kai and Auz, and Megan and Travis have a daughter named Eleanor. “Everybody says don’t work with family, but that’s kind of the drive and motivation to be here. That’s the most rewarding thing to work side by side. We have so many shared experiences. I can say I see my folks every day and my sister everyday. I get to see my niece everyday and that’s pretty cool.” Not only is the orchard a special place for the McClure family, but also it is a place all families can enjoy. “It’s about being a family operation, but it’s also being there for other families to come out and enjoy. We can take a family out to pick apples and spend that time together. If it wasn’t a family operation, I don’t know that I would be here doing it,” said Jason. The orchard welcomes families to come enjoy you-pick apples, you-pick-pumpkins, hayrides, a petting zoo and play area. They also have the Apple Dumplin’ Inn, which is a small restaurant inside the gift shop. Also in the gift shop is wine tasting. The first three tastes are free. To celebrate the end of the season, McClure’s Orchard/Winery is partnering with Breakaway Bike Shop for the annual harvest fest on Oct. 12. There will be a 5K run and walk and a 14-mile bike ride as well as wine tasting, music, horse rides and other activities. Proceeds will go to the HOPE Foundation in Wabash. Wabash citizens looking for a closer option can buy McClure’s wine in downtown Wabash at Dorothy Ilene’s during First Friday events.

eLearning arrives at MSD of Wabash County The three Rs have added a big E in Metropolitan School District of Wabash County. eLearning is here! The Department of Education is working closely with MSD of Wabash County to advance electronic learning opportunities for our digital native youth, kids who only know the world with computers and smart phones. The “EDays” structure forged in collaboration with educational innovators from IDOE’s eLearning division will provide students and teachers valuable experience in the rapidly emerging

eLearning realm. The schools’ staff will create, deliver, assess and document eLearning instruction on three school days during the school year. These experiences are essential because most universities and a great many employers already use eLearning extensively. These three days will count as real school days, which will spare the district the additional cost of teacher training days. Teachers, cooks, bus drivers, custodians, paraprofessionals and administrators will be involved in training to continue to

What will these days look like for students? Students will be at home or at childcare and will access their learning through their iPad or laptop. Teachers will work ahead and put their assignments online. Teachers will be available for student questions online. The three days are Nov. 6, Jan. 23 and March 27. The district is aware that not all students have Internet access at home. While assignments may require Internet access, students will not be penalized if they are unable to get online. If you do not have Internet access the district hopes you will consider the library, McDonalds, Modocs, The Honeywell Center, the YMCA, etc. Also, each school will be open to family access for the Internet. In other words, you may come to the school with your student to

Indianapolis— What makes soils in the Midwest so unique that selecting the right seed and successfully growing cover crops is so important? Find out on Sept. 18 at JA Scott Farms in Kosciusko County. “Over 40 different plots of cover crop species and mixes are growing on our farm to provide farmers and consultants the chance to see what is working well in our Midwest soils,” said Jamie Scott, one of 12 Conservation Cropping Systems Initiative (CCSI) farmers across the state.

The field day kicks off with an overview of JA Scott Farms from Jamie Scott. Scott is part of a family farm operation consisting of about 2,000 acres. The operation was an early adopter of conservation tillage. Now all tillable acres are no-tilled or strip-tilled. A spring workshop and field demonstration on cover crops has been held for the last three years. The Scotts have coordinated cover crop aerial seedings in an eight-county area for the last three years resulting in 16,000 planted acres.

Jim Scott, Jamie’s father, will lead “round-robin” discussions in the morning talking about the Scott Farms’ Approach to P r o d u c t i o n Agriculture and its Effects on Soil Health. Agronomist Rich Recker joins him at the root pit. Dave Goracke and Ron Althoff follow with a discussion on Behind the Scenes of Cover Crop Seed Production in the U.S. / Insuring Quality Seed Sources. Goracke represents the Oregon Ryegrass Growers Seed Commission. Althoff is a representative

After lunch National Resources Conservation Services State Soil Health Specialist Barry Fisher and Scot Haley, NRCS Area Resource Soil Scientist, will cover soil health indicators. Cameron Mills, another featured CCSI farmer from Cass County, talks about the termination of cover crops. “The more farmers can learn about cover crops, the better they can understand the benefits gained from using them, especially how they help the soil and their bottom line,” said Lisa Holscher, CCSI Soil Health Program Manager. “This field day will also show how cover crops work well in a variety of tillage systems,” Holscher added. Scott’s field day is a project of CCSI, JA Scott Farms, T i p p e c a n o e W a t e r s h e d Foundation, Middle Eel River Watershed Initiative and the Wabash and Kosciusko County Soil and Water Conservation Districts.

Entertainment named for 72nd annual Chamber dinner meeting

Larry Hoover, Annual Dinner Committee Chair, has announced that reservations are available for the Wabash County Chamber of Commerce’s 72nd Annual Dinner Meeting to be held on Thursday, Oct. 10. The Chamber’s Annual Meeting is one of the largest in the state. The meeting features the Passing of the Gavel to new leadership, Recognition of the recently announced 2013 Business of the Year, Agro Chem, Inc.; Honoring of Chamber V o l u n t e e r s , Presentation of the President’s Choice A w a r d , Announcement of the Distinguished Citizen, and quality entertainment.

The Magic City Music Men will be the featured entertainment the evening of the event in the Honeywell Center’s Legacy Hall. The Magic City Music Men have been an important part of the Central Indiana community for many years. The group consists of 20 men who sing unaccompanied music. Although their roots are in barbershop harmony, they perform a variety of music styles:

Swing, spirituals, and modern love songs to name a few. Over the past five years, there has been a renewed effort of professionalism and quality. This enthusiasm has been coupled with a commitment by the group to serve Central Indiana in music and performance. Music making is a quality approach to wellness and with this group being dedicated to that approach, they were blessed with busy a 2012 musical season. This ensemble performed over 25 times during the 2012 season. Several other performances of quartets and smaller ensembles, aside from the entire group presentations, were also enjoyed by audiences last year. A few of the groups they performed for were the Honeywell Center Outreach, America’s Hometown Band, several company functions, business celebrations and large community events. Some of the most memorable performances were enjoyed over the Christmas Holiday Season. Music is one of the best sources to uplift your spirits, to simply have fun, and if you are a singer, to experience health and wellness. This group is committed to preserving an exciting musical art form, as well as applying their skills to several different kinds of music. The group is directed and led by local resident, Tony Millspaugh. Reservations may be made by contacting the Chamber office at

UNITED STATES DISTRIBUTION NOTICE: SSB2112

RESIDENTS CASH IN: Pictured above are the Overstuffed Money Bags containing 10 individual Vault Bags full of money that everyone is trying to get. That’s because each Vault Bag is known to contain over 100 U.S. Gov’t issued coins some dating back to the early 1900s.

State zip codes determine who gets free Silver coins Vault bags loaded with U.S. Gov’t issued coins are up for grabs as thousands of U.S. residents stand to miss the deadline to claim the money; now any U.S. resident who finds their zip code listed below gets to claim the bags of money for themselves and keep any valuable coins found inside by covering the Vault Bag fee within the next 2 days The phone lines are ringing off the hook. That’s because for the next 2 days Vault Bags containing valuable U.S. Gov’t issued coins are actually being handed over to U.S. residents who find their zip code listed in today’s publication. “Now that the bags of money are up for grabs U.S. residents are claiming as many as they can get before they’re all gone. That’s because after the Vault Bags were loaded with over 100 U.S. Gov’t issued coins the bags were sealed for good. But we do know that some of the coins date clear back to the early 1900s, including: a 90% pure Silver Walking Liberty Half Dollar, an Eisenhower Dollar, some of the last ever minted U.S. Dollars, Kennedy Half Dollars, Silver Mercury Dimes, rarely seen Liberty ‘V’ Nickels, nearly 100 year old Buffalo Nickels and unsearched currently circulating U.S. Gov’t issued nickels, dimes and quarter dollars, but there’s no telling what you’ll find until you sort through all the coins.” said Timothy J. Shissler, Chief Numismatist for the private World Reserve. The only thing residents need to do is call the National Claim Hotline before the 2-day order deadline ends. Everyone who does is being given the 90% pure Silver Walking Liberty coin for free just by covering the fee for each Vault Bag loaded with over 100 U.S. Gov’t issued coins for only $99 as long as they call before the deadline ends. So, if lines are busy keep trying, all calls will be answered. N

FREE: RED BOOK COLLECTOR VALUE $15 to $325

VALUABLE: 90% PURE SILVER

ENLARGED TO SHOW DETAIL. YEAR VARIES 1916-1947

How to claim the bags of U.S. Gov’t issued coins: Read the important information below. Then call the National Claim Hotline at: 1-888-282-6742 I keep calling and can’t get through: This announcement is being so widely advertised because each Vault Bag is guaranteed to contain a free Silver Walking Liberty coin and just that one coin alone could be worth $15 to $325 in collector value. So thousands of residents are calling to claim as many Vault Bags as they can get before they’re all gone. In fact, since the Vault Bag fee is just $ 99 everyone is claiming as many bags as they can before the deadline ends. So if lines are busy keep trying, all calls will be answered. How much are the Vault Bags worth: Coin values always fluctuate and there are never any guarantees, but here’s why U.S. residents are claiming as many Vault Bags as they can get before they’re all gone. After the Vault bags were loaded with over 100 U.S. Gov’t issued coins including: Silver, scarce, highly collectible, and a big scoop of unsearched currently circulating U.S. Gov’t issued coins the bags were sealed for good. But we do know that some of the coins date back to the 1900s. That means there’s no telling what you’ll find until you sort through all the coins. So you better believe at just $99 the Vault Bag fee is a real steal since the free Silver Walking Liberty coin alone could be worth from $15 to $325 in collector value. Are the Silver Walking Liberty coins really Free: Yes. U.S. residents who beat the 2-day deadline are getting a Silver Walking Liberty coin minted between 1916-1947 free with each Vault Bag they claim. Why is the Vault Bag fee so low: Because thousands of U.S. residents have missed the deadline to claim the money the World Reserve has re-allocated Vault Bags that will be scheduled to be sent out in the next 2 days. That means the money is up for grabs and now any resident who finds the first two digits of their zip code on the Distribution List below gets to claim the bags of money for themselves and keep all the U.S. Gov’t issued coins found inside. Each Vault Bag fee is set at $149 for residents who miss the 2-day deadline, but for those who beat the 2-day deadline the Vault Bag fee is just $ 99 for as long as they call the National Claim Hotline before the deadline ends at: 1-888-282-6742.

The Manchester Early Learning Center experienced a year of change including staffing, a major renovation and a new computer. Janet French took the helm as executive director in October 2012 after serving as assistant director the previous nine years. Janet brings over 30 years of childcare experience and strong leadership for the Center. She has assembled an experienced and dedicated staff. Jo Etta Herrmann returned to the Center as assistant director in December 2012 after a brief hiatus from previously serving the Center as a lead teacher for four years.

Melissa Ream, who served as the Center’s food service manager for six years added bookkeeping duties to her responsibilities in November 2012. The Center employs 11 other individuals including lead teachers, assistant teachers and a custodian. After months of fundraising, the Center’s kitchen received a much needed renovation last fall. Hours of volunteer labor were given to tear out all the old cabinets and replace them with new ones. A new dish sanitizer, plumbing, lighting and flooring were also part of the renovation. Thanks to board member, Andy Brown, for managing

and volunteering for the project and thanks to North Manchester Kiwanis members, who assisted and provided the finishing touches with a fresh coat of paint. The Center’s old computer was replaced with a newer computer donated by Brady Burgess at B.I.T. Computers last winter. The new computer has increased administrative productivity and helped teachers with curriculum planning. In June 2013, the Center was also the recipient of six used computers from an anonymous donor for the children to use in the classrooms. The Manchester

Early Learning Center is not-for-profit pre-school and childcare facility located on the southwest side of North Manchester. The Center, a United Fund agency, provides care for over 40 children, from infants to age 12, and has 14 employees. The Center is the only licensed center in Wabash County and is a Paths to Quality participant. As a 501(C)(3) organization all donations are tax deductible. Inquiries regarding enrollment, donations or other questions should be directed to Janet French or Jo Etta Herrmann at 260-9824913.

Museum announces Annual Operating Fund Campaign The Wabash County Historical Museum, Inc. recently announced the start of their 2013 Annual Operating Fund Campaign. Mitch Figert, the museum’s recently appointed Executive Director, announced this year’s goal of $115,000. “This is an aggressive goal compared to previous years’ campaigns,” Figert stated. “We have a lot happening at the museum and this campaign reflects the numerous improvements and additions taking place at our facility.” Figert, who has been with the museum since mid-July, has openly commented on his plans to further engage families and youth in the historical museum. The museum currently admits all area school

groups at no charge to the school corporations, educators or families. “We want to position the museum as a second classroom for our area schools,” Figert noted. “It is one thing to learn from a textbook but here they can come into our facility and interact with the exhibits.” The museum is also preparing for a new outdoor exhibit that will be located to the west of their building. This new exhibit will feature a fullsized caboose that will be restored and accented with a patio and garden space. The caboose is scheduled to arrive this fall and the restoration will begin after its delivery and likely continue into the spring. “We are grateful for

the generosity of former Mayor Robert and Peggy McCallen for generously donating this caboose to the museum and the other numerous partners who are making this exhibit a reality,” Figert explained. “The railroad has always had a major role in the history of Wabash, starting with the Big Four, and this caboose will be a great tribute to that history.” As part of their campaign, funds will also be raised to support other needs including ongoing maintenance of the facility and exhibits, maintaining the collection of over 25,000 artifacts, and continuing to provide quality programming. The museum opened in their current location at 36 E.

The museum is a nonprofit organization that focuses on collecting, preserving, documenting and displaying the rich history of Wabash County. While the museum receives approximately 10 percent of their budget from the Wabash County government, the other 90 percent comes through admissions, museum store sales, and, more importantly, through local donors. “Donors are the heart of the museum and ensure that we are able to sustain our programming and protect the collection,” Figert noted. The museum is often referred to as the best county museum in the state and is filled with interactive exhibits for both kids and adults. The museum is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. To make a gift to support the 2013 Annual Operating Fund Drive, donors can mail their tax deductible gift to: Wabash County Historical Museum, Inc., 36 E.

THE ROANN Town Board meeting will be held on Sept. 11, at 7 p.m. at the town hall. THERE WILL BE an all-town meeting on Sept. 26, at 7 p.m. at

PICTURED IS THE ABSHIRE CABIN LOCATED in downtown Roann, as volunteers prepared for the 2013 Roann Covered Bridge Festival. Alexander and Susanna (Swihart) Abshire set up housekeeping in this cabin in 1863. The cabin was moved log by log by volunteers to its present location in the town park as part on Indiana’s Sesquicentennial celebration in 1966. Today it stands as a tribute to the hard working pioneers who settled this area. (From the covered bridge festival website). The quilt block affixed outside is aptly named a log cabin.

Columbia City man injured in ATV accident in Whitley County Conservation Officers are investigating an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) accident that occurred Sunday, Sept. 1 on CR 300 S just west of CR 625 W, Columbia City. Whitley County Central Dispatch received a 911 call shortly after 10 a.m. advising of an ATV accident with injury. Jamie Elliott, 29, Columbia City was operating a 2013 Yamaha 450 on a public roadway when he lost control. A witness to the accident told investigators that Elliott was driving down the roadway on its back wheels with the front wheels in the air when the ATV flipped over. Preliminary investigations indicate Elliott had a high level of alcohol in his system at the time of the crash. Jamie Elliott was transported to Parkview Hospital Fort Wayne by ambulance with multiple injuries to his head, neck, shoulders and back. Elliott was not wearing a helmet or any other protective clothing at the time of the accident. State Law prohibits the operation of an ATV under the influence of alcohol and drugs—even though wearing a helmet is not required by law, Conservation Officers strongly encourage the use of all safety equipment. An online ATV safety course can be found at www.offroaded.com/in/index.htm and can be studied at a personal pace. Individuals who successfully complete the test are issued a lifetime certification card. Units assisting Indiana Conservation Officers at the scene include Whitley County Sheriff ’s Department, Whitley Fire and Whitley EMS. disorderly conduct, suspended prior.

Marion woman killed in Miami County crash Recently, officers from the Indiana State Police responded to a two vehicle crash on U.S. 31 near Miami County Road 1500 North, in which a Marion, woman was fatally injured. The preliminary crash investigation by Trooper Ezariah Bricknell revealed that Karen Cummings, 56, Marion, was driving a 2007 Jeep Liberty northbound on U.S. 31 near Miami County Road 1500 North. Evidence indicates that the Jeep was traveling at a high rate of speed when it rear-ended a northbound 1997 Pontiac Grand Am. The Pontiac was driven by Gerald Harmon, 58, Roann. The crash impact caused the Jeep to travel across the median, roll several times, before coming to rest on its wheels in the southbound lanes of U.S. 31. The Pontiac was pushed into the median. Cummings died of injuries sustained in the crash. Deputy Miami County Coroner Ron Meyer pronounced her dead at the scene. Harmon was not injured. This crash is still under investigation, but at this time neither the use of alcohol nor narcotics is suspected as having contributed to this crash.

Suicide Prevention Week focuses on awareness and education Recognizing and treating depression are major steps toward preventing suicides, according to the Indiana/Ohio director of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, Lisa Brattain. The latest statistics from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show suicide rates have continued to trend upward since 1999. This is National Suicide Prevention Week, and Brattain said depression, like other illnesses, can and should be treated. “An illness is an illness and depression is treatable and suicide is preventable,” she declared.

‘The Paper’ welcomes Andrew Marks to WebTV by Kalie Ammons sports@thepaperofwabash.com The Paper of Wabash welcomes Andrew Marks to its WebTV team. What exactly does Marks do? “I would say production assistant,” Marks told The Paper. “Right now it’s football season, so we’re doing football games in the Wabash County area.” Marks runs the camera at the games

in the county while perched atop the sound booth. The video is then uploaded to WebTV so viewers unable to make it to the game can watch it live from home. “WebTV is our local broadcasting live stream that we do over citylinktv.com,” Marks clarified. “This week we’re at Northfield, my first game was at Northfield. We were at Wabash last week,”

Marks explained. To see the games, visit citylinktv.com and click on Wabash WebTV on the left column. Marks’ interest in the media and music worlds brought him to this position. “I’ve always wanted to be in the entertainment industry in some form or another, even if it’s just being a cameraman. At least I’m getting my toes wet.”

Venison donation program connects hunters and the public A program that allows hunters to give deer meat to those who want venison will be available again this fall. GiveIN Game, DNR Division of Fish & Wildlife’s venison donation program, will be available for its third year. Hunters who are willing to donate venison and people who would like to receive venison began registering on Sept. 1 at hunting.IN.gov/7240. htm. GiveIN Game makes it easy for people to connect and set up an exchange. Selling, bartering or trading for venison is illegal. The successful program had 774 participants in 2012, up from 702 participants in 2011. A majority of the participants surveyed by DNR said the program is easy to use, private and secure, and that it fosters community goodwill. More than 90 percent said they would sign up again. Both hunters and recipients have an option of donating or requesting any amount of venison in all conditions, from field-dressed animals to packaged venison. “GiveIN Game is a great way to connect people who are looking for a healthy alternative source of protein,” said Chad Stewart, DNR deer research biologist. “It gives hunters a reason to continue hunting after they have satisfied their own venison needs. It provides a community service, which gets back to the roots of

why hunters hunted.”

Manchester wins home soccer invite

by Gary Andrews The Manchester boys’ soccer team won the Manchester Soccer Invite Saturday, topping Whitko 1-0 before defeating Rochester 21 in the final. After the 1-0 victory over Whitko put the Squires in the championship game, game two would be a defensive battle for the crown. The first half would end up scoreless to set up an exciting second half finale. The Zebras would get on the board first off a ricochet that found

the back of the net to lead 1-0. Just two minutes later David FahsBrown would sneak a shot behind the defenders off the right side to knot the score at one. Less than two minutes after the Fahs-Brown goal, Braydon Sewell would catch a rebound off a crowd at the net with a header to find the back of the goal which ended up being the game winner. Zach Hill was named the MVP of the tourney.

Rage suffers loss in Indy

by Gary Andrews The Metro Rage varsity soccer team suffered a 4-2 loss to the Indy Northwest Warriors in Indianapolis on Saturday, Sept. 7. The Warriors jumped on the Rage early and never looked back.

The Rage gave up two goals inside of the first five minutes of the game. A penalty kick was awarded at the 29-minute mark and the fourth goal came with seven minutes left in the first half to give the Warriors a 4-0 half

time lead. The Rage responded with two goals in the first nine minutes of the second half to make the game interesting. Colton Dawes won a battle for a loose ball just inside the 18-yard box and played a ball to Zach Hobson, who ripped a shot to the near post two minutes into the second half. The Rage continued to pressure the Warriors in their own end of the field and scored again seven minutes later when Tanner Easterday served a ball into the box to Heath Miller who put the ball in the back of the net. The Rage held the Warriors scoreless in the second half with Julian Hobson making three big saves in the second half. “We played the two best teams on our schedule in about a 40 hour span. Indy Northwest was a very

good team, but we just looked tired,” commented Rage Coach Jeff Hobson. “I was really proud of the boys for playing on guts and pride the second half. We still looked tired, but I think they decided that they were going to show some character and play through the fatigue.” Hobson went on to say “we gave up a total of three goals all year last year so giving up two goals in five minutes was totally out of character for us. I know the boys are looking forward to the rematch at our field on Oct. 3. It should be epic.” The Rage JV team travels to Manchester on Wednesday night to play the Squire JV team and the varsity team travels to Kokomo to play the Kokomo Home School travel team on Thursday.
