An Arizona Department of Public Safety trooper who was shot Jan. 12 on Interstate 10 near Tonopah has a longstanding relationship with the far West Valley community, officials said. Trooper Ed Andersson has volunteered as the varsity volleyball coach and with other athletic programs at Tonopah Valley High School for many years, said Paul Tighe, superintendent of the Saddle Mountain Unified District. The high school is about 10 miles east of where Andersson was shot in the early morning while responding to a call for service on I-10. At about 4:20 a.m., a driver called 911 to report his vehicle had been shot at by someone in the road at Milepost 89, DPS Col. Frank Milstead said. “He heard a loud bang, but didn’t know if it had struck the vehicle,” he said. “Then somewhere down the Leonard road, his vehicle began to lose power and he Penuelasrealized the car had been Escobar shot.” Other drivers also began to call in reports of a man standing in the road with a gun, a man dragging a woman’s body off the freeway and a rollover collision, Milstead said. Andersson, a commercial vehicle inspector, was inspecting a truck nearby and left to respond to the calls, Milstead said. After arriving at the crash, Andersson saw a man sitting on the ground with a woman in his arms on the north side of the freeway, he said. He exited his vehicle and began to lay down flares when the man, identified as Leonard Penuelas-Escobar, 37, said something in Spanish, Milstead said. Penuelas-Escobar pointed a 9 mm pistol at Andersson and shot him once in the right shoulder, then began attacking the trooper, he said. At that point, another driver who was traveling westbound to California with his fiance saw a man straddling a trooper and stopped to help, Milstead said. The driver grabbed a gun from his vehicle as his fiance called 911. He told Penuelas-Escobar to step away from Andersson, but he responded with profanity, Milstead said. After firing twice at Penuelas-Escobar and disabling him, the driver began to administer first aid to Andersson, he said. But Penuelas-Escobar got up and began attacking them again, at which point the driver shot and killed him, Milstead said. “He knows that he did the right thing, and he’s trying to reconcile that in his mind,” Milstead said about the driver’s actions. “It’s difficult to take a life, even when you know it’s the right thing to do.” Andersson had called for medical assistance (See Trooper on Page 5)

DENNIS RUNYAN, Agua Fria Union High School District superintendent, speaks Jan. 12 at the groundbreaking ceremony for the district’s fifth school, to be built on the northwest corner of Bethany Home and Perryville roads in the West Valley.

Agua Fria District breaks ground on 5th high school Campus will be 1st new public W.V. high school in a decade by Emily Toepfer assistant editor

Nestled on county land at the base of the White Tank Mountains is the site of the West Valley’s next high school, an innovative campus with an opening date of August 2018. The Agua Fria Union High School District held a groundbreaking ceremony Jan. 12 for its fifth campus, a 237,000-square-foot facility that will eventually house 1,600 students at Bethany Home and Perryville roads. A name and mascot for the school are still being determined with input from the community, but the principal position has been posted and 26 people had applied as of last week, said Tom Huffman, the district’s executive director of operations and safety. The job is expected to be filled by July 1, Huffman said. “There’s a lot of academic programs and furniture and other things that need to be confirmed, and that principal is really the right person to be doing that job,” he said. Officials expect the school to open with only a freshman class unless the district is overwhelmed with enrollment in the next year, Huffman said. Rising enrollment has been a key factor in the district’s push for a fifth campus. “Our schools are full,” Huffman said. “Agua Fria has been a district of choice for several years. We have about 8,000 students in our schools right now, and our capacity is about 500 less than that. So we really needed to address additional space within our schools.” The campus will cost about $73 million total to build, which includes land, permits, furniture, equipment and fixtures, said Dennis Runyan, Agua Fria superintendent. “The land purchase [at just more than $3.5

million] was about 50 percent of the cost of other properties we looked at in the region,” Runyan said. To help fund the school, the district was awarded $33.4 million from the Arizona School Facilities Board last year. The rest will be paid out of a $70 million bond approved by voters in November 2015. The district’s last school to open was Verrado High School in 2006. The new campus will be the first public high school built in the West Valley since Youngker High School in Buckeye opened in 2007. “There have been very few comprehensive high schools that have opened in this state since 2008,” Huffman said. “The world has changed a lot, so we need to build a different kind of school to address those needs and prepare students for a different world that’s out there from when some of our other schools were built.” The campus was designed by DLR Group and is organized around four learning suites, nicknamed “forts,” that will have moveable walls. Each suite will have two science labs and five open, flexible classrooms. An Agora, named after the Greek word for marketplace, will provide informal outdoor learning areas and café spaces. “Connectivity was a primary goal of the design. We incorporated sliding and folding walls to maximize the variety of spatial interrelationships within the learning suite,” said Pam Loeffelman, who leads DLR Group’s K-12 Southwest practice. “The flexible design and furniture allow teachers to adapt their space to their teaching style rather than their teaching style to the space.” Another innovative feature of the high school is a first-of-its-kind teaching and learning “Accelerator,” which will house the auditorium. It’s designed as two spaces working in tandem. (See School on Page 2)

Outdoor Adventure Day

(From Page 1) The primary space is a theater featuring traditional fixed seating in the lower bowl and a retractable seating system at the back. The secondary space, nicknamed the “white box,” will provide theatrical and professional collaboration spaces for up to 260 people. Large overhead garage doors connect the two areas and can be opened to create a larger space for practitioners and students to use. “We took a look at every activity for an entire school year for a school and a district office and tried to make sure that Accelerator would handle each and every one of those events,” Huffman said. “I think we’ve pulled that off, so that’s going to be a really neat place, not only for the school, but for the district, and we hope for the community as well.” An outdoor amphitheater called the “Learning stair” provides additional opportunities for gathering and learning, and can extend the white box into an amphitheater by raising a 45-foot by 16-foot glazed hangar door. “Learning shouldn’t take place in hiding back behind closed doors,” Huffman said. “That gets the learning right out there in the center of the campus.” The district is waiting on permits from Maricopa County before it can start building, but the head of the construction team assured nearby residents that they’ll be good neighbors. “On a typical day, there will be 250 to 300 crafts people on the site, and safety is going to be paramount,” said Barry Chasse, owner of Chasse Building Team. “We will absolutely take care of this site and deliver it with the highest quality we can possibly do.” Plans also call for improvements to the two egress roads, Perryville and Bethany Home, and studies have been performed, Runyan said. “I thought one of the coolest schools I’ve ever been a part of was Verrado High School, and that was 2006,” Chasse said. “This one’s going to give it a run for the money. They really have done an amazing amount of research and put so much energy and thought into challenging the existing school model and how to get that bar to raise.” The district will hold multiple community meetings about the new school, including at 5:30 p.m. Thursday at Verrado High School, 20050 W. Indian School Road, Buckeye, and at 4:30 p.m. Feb. 6 at the District Office, 1481 N. Eliseo Felix Jr. Way, Avondale.

12-year-old boy dies in head-on crash in Goodyear View report

A 12-year-old Litchfield Park boy died Jan. 13 after two vehicles crashed head-on near 147th Avenue and Camelback Road in Goodyear, officials said. A Chevrolet Impala and a Jeep were involved in the collision at about 6 p.m., said Lisa Kutis, a spokeswoman with the Goodyear Police Department. Gavin Garcia was a passenger in the Jeep, Kutis said.

Four other youths were involved in the crash, including two girls ages 9 and 17 and two boys ages 13 and 16, said Battalion Chief Russ Braden, a spokesman with the Goodyear Fire Department. All five were transported to hospitals, where Gavin later died, Kutis said. The cause of the crash is under investigation, but impairment does not appear to be a factor at this time, she said.

Phoenix woman pleads guilty to 2012 murder of husband Victim was son of prominent W.V. businessman by Emily Toepfer assistant editor

A Phoenix woman pleaded guilty Jan. 11 to the 2012 murder of her husband, the son of a prominent West Valley businessman, officials said. Rebekah Mellon, 36, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder for the shooting death of her husband, Donald Mellon Jr., 46, on July 31, 2012, at their home near Encanto Boulevard and Central Avenue in Phoenix, according to a press release by the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office. Surveillance video from the home shows the shooting taking place and identifies Rebekah Mellon as the shooter, the release stated. She will not be eligible for early release, and faces a sentence of 18 to 22 years in the Arizona Department of Corrections, the release states. Sentencing is scheduled for March 3, the release states. “This defendant is being held fully accountable for her actions on that day

and the loss of life she caused,” Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery said in the press release. “It is important for the public to understand that this plea does not offer discounted consequences, but requires accountability without requiring a full presentation of evidence to a jury at trial.” Donald Mellon Jr. was the son Rebekah of Don Mellon Mellon Sr., who owns many McDonald’s restaurant franchises in the West Valley.

Cave Creek man accused of sexual conduct with Avondale girl by Emily Toepfer assistant editor

A Cave Creek man is facing three counts of sexual conduct with a minor involving a 14-year-old Avondale girl, court records state. Jeffory Helms, 45, was arrested Jan. 3 and accused of touching the teen on three separate occasions in October and November 2016, records state.

After the purchases, Helms allegedly drove the girl behind Harkins, where the sexual conduct occurred, records state. Video surveillance allegedly shows Helms and the girl together in Best Buy and then a white van similar to one driven by Helms in a parking lot for

about 10 to 15 minutes before leaving, records state. The girl also reported two other incidents that previously occurred at her house, records state. Helms allegedly admitted to police that he touched the girl on three occasions, records state. Police recommended he not be released Jeffory Helms on bond, because he has no family in the area and often travels for RC car racing, which gives him direct access to various juveniles, records state.

A Glendale woman faces charges of animal abuse and neglect after 13 animals, including a dead cat, were removed Jan. 10 from her mobile home near 127th and Glendale avenues in Glendale, officials said. The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office Animal Crimes Unit served a search warrant at the property in the Hacienda Del Sol mobile home park, where they found 11 cats, one dog and a dead cat in a plastic bag, said Sgt. Calbert Gillett, a spokesman with the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office. Detectives responded to the home at about noon after receiving a complaint call, and found a “significant amount of cats outside and inside the residence,� Gillett said. Joan Reynolds, 72, who lived at the home, told deputies she had stored a dead animal in a plastic bag outside the

house for several months, Gillett said. The living animals were malnourished and in poor health, and are being assessed by a veterinarian, he said. Conditions inside the home presented a “sizable health hazard� to anyone inside, Gillett said. The Animal Crimes Investigative Unit, supported by MCSO MASH personnel and staff from the Palm Glen Animal Hospital, wore protective clothing as they searched the home, he said. MCSO is working with social services specialists to find a place for Reynolds to stay pending formal filing of charges. It does not appear that she has any criminal history, Gillett said.

The cause of the accident is unknown. Federal authorities were notified and are continuing the investigation.

Investigators believe Penuelas-Escobar was driving at a high rate of speed when the rollover occurred, Milstead said. The woman, identified as Vanessa Lopez-Ruiz, 23, was ejected from the vehicle and died from her injuries, he said. “All the people that knew what happened are dead, except my trooper, who drove upon this scene,� Milstead said. “So we have a lot of investigation to do.� Penuelas-Escobar and Lopez-Ruiz, who are believed to have been in a relationship, are known meth users, he said. They had been living together in the Valley until recently when Penuelas-Escobar was evicted for using and selling drugs. They had been staying in Salome, which is where officials believe they were heading before the crash, Milstead said. Penuelas-Escobar was in the country illegally, but has no known criminal history, Milstead said. On one occasion, he attempted to cross the border from Mexico into the United States, but was turned back, he said. Information also leads officials to believe he was a federal police officer for the Mexican Police in 2007, Milstead said. Lopez-Ruiz, a Phoenix native, has a criminal history and had several warrants out for her arrest, ranging from shoplifting to possession of drugs, Milstead said. Andersson, a 27-year law enforcement officer with DPS, underwent several surgeries at Abrazo West Campus in Goodyear and was released from the hospital, Milstead said. “Unbelievably, his first words to me were, ‘Sir, you don’t need to be here. You don’t need to make such a fuss of this,’� he said. “He’s just a tough guy.� Milstead said he spoke with the driver who came to Andersson’s aid, and doesn’t know if he would be alive today without him. “If he didn’t save Trooper Andersson’s life, he definitely kept him from having much more severe neurological injuries from this beating that he was taking helplessly at the time,� he said. The man has yet to come forward, but Milstead described him as a humble, spiritual man who said he believes God put him there that morning so he could save Andersson’s life. He told investigators he routinely trains with law enforcement personnel and military people he knows, Milstead said. “If you are going to attempt to help a police officer in any situation, communicate with them and let them know what you’re attempting to do and who you are as you attempt to do it, and ask them if they need help,� Milstead said. A fundraiser was started by the Arizona State Troopers Association to support Andersson and his family. To donate, go to aztroopers.org/support-trooper-andersson. All donations will go directly to the family. Emily Toepfer can be reached at etoepfer@westvalleyview.com or on Twitter @EmilyToepfer.

OUR VIEWPOINT

KEEFE’S OPINION — Cagle Cartoons

EDITORIAL

Goodyear deserves more choices for mayoral position We’re pleased to see some competition this time around for Goodyear’s mayoral seat. We just wish there were more of it. And there should be. Goodyear’s got plenty of residents who are qualified for the position. But as it stands, Goodyear voters have two choices for mayor in the upcoming March 14 election: current Mayor Georgia Lord, who was appointed to the position in late 2010 after then Mayor Jim Cavanaugh stepped down, basically citing irreconcilable differences between himself and the council, and Cavanaugh. Neither candidate is violating any of the city’s rules by running. Neither has served a total of two four-year terms, which the position is limited to. But they’ve both come very close. Cavanaugh was first elected mayor in 2003 when the position was a two-year term. The city’s charter changed after that and he became the first mayor to serve a four-year term. He was re-elected to a second four-term when he resigned about halfway through. Lord was appointed to the position in late 2010 when Cavanaugh quit, and the city held a special election for the remaining two years in March 2011, which she won. She was then elected to a four-year term in 2013 when she ran unopposed. Cavanaugh’s already served about eight years and Lord has already served six but neither has served two four-year terms, so Goodyear’s next mayor will serve over eight years. It’s all on the up and up, but we’re not crazy about it. Granted if Lord wins, she will only be serving two extra years, but if Cavanaugh wins, it will be like a third fouryear term. One thing is for sure, Goodyear residents won’t be seeing anything new out of the winner because both candidates are incumbents. Either way, whoever wins will be termed out in 2021, assuming whoever wins doesn’t resign partway through the term. Four years from now seems like a long time, but it will be here before we know it, and for all we know, this election’s loser just might wind up back on the ballot. Goodyear deserves a bigger selection of mayoral candidates. We hope to see some new faces in 2021.

Go get ’em! Editor: The battle is just beginning. There are many issues which Trump will face in the coming years. The progressives will not go down easily. The one issue which I feel the most passion about are sanctuary cities, which are found from sea to shinning sea. Most however are in California. Trump must fight these sanctuary cities the same way Obama fought for his progressive vision. My advice to Trump and the Republicans is to take no prisoners . Obama, Pelosi and Reid did not seek Republican help, nor did they care what America thought of their agenda when they controlled everything in 2008. This time it is the good guys turn to ram it down the progressives combined throats. Trump needs to withhold federal funds from any sanctuary city which refuses to comply with Federal immigration law . They must be made to understand that they cannot act as subversives and get away with it. If the situation calls for it, the Justice department should dispatch Federal immigration officers to round up illegals who are deemed dangerous . Hopefully most sanctuary cities will comply with Federal law. However, I

doubt they will. As a caveat , has anyone noticed that it is the progressive states, who are the big spenders going bankrupt? Illinois, New York and California to name a few. It is in these same states that crime is going through the roof . Has anyone noticed that it is the red states who have good fiscal management and more jobs per capita? Elections have consequences. The American people have spoken. Obama’s policies have been repudiated. Go get em ! Let us make America great again for Americans Roy Azzarello Goodyear

Give Trump a chance Editor: The most recent issue of the WWV had so many negative ( I could say nasty) letters about Trump, that ‘I set myself down to write a letter’ too. I don’t consider myself to be a musician, since the only wedding I ever soloed my violin for, ended in divorce Not a very successful performance! Unlike one of the writers, I am not a musician, nor a lifelong Democrat, however like him, did not vote for Trump. I certainly could not vote for Hillary, although I have voted for many Democrats for President. I have usually voted for the winner, although not in this case.

West Valley deserves casino Editor: I have been reading and listening to all the news regarding the Westside Casino and the opposition to it from our government leaders, many of whom I have supported in the past. I have been in business and a resident of the west valley since the early forties and I do not understand why we do not deserve a full-fledged casino. Although I have never frequented casinos, I think it is a shame that even after the courts’ many confirmations of the casinos legal right to operate here, plus the many positive benefits such a facility would bring to the west valley, our officials continue to contest its right to operate here.

 OPINIONS

(From Page 6) deduce you weren’t asked — even though your name was out there. Judy Weaver Avondale

Staff comes before pupils Editor: Monday January 2nd was celebrated as a national holiday by most. It seems that the Litchfield Elementary School District was unable to find enough days in the year to celebrate this national holiday with the rest of the nation. Despite the fact that many parents had the day off work along with federal, state and many other major corporate entities, LESD could not seem to calculate a schedule that would accommodate children to be at home with their families on the holiday. I know that children must attend a set number of days in the year. I also know that perhaps a day could have been obtained by shortening the week long fall break, or the Thanksgiving break that began on a Wednesday. There was also the option of starting the Winter aka “Christmas” break a day or two later than December 19th. The last time I checked there was not a national holiday on December 19th or 20th, but by taking those days off, it allowed the teachers and staff to have 16 consecutive days off. In other words who cares about the parents or relatives that are off for the national holiday and would enjoy spending time with the children. Lest we forget, there could also be a day shaved off from the week long spring break but of course that would not allow the school staff to have 9 consecutive days off. Perhaps next year the district calendar can focus on children and families rather than staff. Ron Carrington Litchfield Park

Administration faces problems Editor: There are two (among many)

Karl Nelson Goodyear

W.V. spreads Christmas cheer Editor: I am writing to thank and celebrate both Goodyear and Avondale residents for spreading joy to children around the world this Christmas season. The generosity of volunteers, families and groups from both cities and throughout the West Valley paved the way for us to exceed our goal! The West Valley collected a total of 15,095 shoebox gifts for the Samaritan’s Purse project Operation Christmas Child — the world’s largest Christmas

project of its kind. The gift-filled shoeboxes are tangible expressions of God’s love for children around the world suffering from poverty, natural disaster, war, disease and famine. These children, many of whom have never received a gift before, learn they are loved and not forgotten. Since 1993, Operation Christmas Child has collected and delivered more than 135 million gift-filled shoeboxes to children in more than 150 countries and territories. It’s not too late for people to make a difference. Though all drop-off locations are closed until November 2017, filled shoeboxes are collected yearround at the Samaritan’s Purse headquarters in Boone, North Carolina. Additionally, anyone can conveniently pack a personalized Operation Christmas Child shoebox gift at samaritanspurse. org/occ. Information about yearround volunteer opportunities can also be found on the website or by calling 813-787-8604. Thank you again to everyone who participated in this project and for those who do so year after year. These simple gifts, packed with love, send a message of hope and continue to transform the lives of children worldwide. Raeleen Higgins Operation Christmas Child West Valley area coordinator

Repeal, replace with what? Editor: The Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare) became law almost seven years ago in March, 2010. The battles for and against the law have continued since Day #1. There have been many ups and downs. Trips to the Supreme Court, the initial failure of Healthcare.gov and the rancorous rhetoric in the 2016 Presidential campaign have poisoned the debate. The positives are impressive. We now have the lowest number of people without health insurance in the history of this country. Close to 200,000 Arizonans have coverage under the Exchange and over 700,000 have received coverage under our Medicaid program better known as AHCCCS. In Washington the debate is raging about “Repeal and Replace” with no obvious resolution to the issue. A total repeal

would be damaging to Arizona and a huge hit to the state budget. Hundreds of thousands of people would lose coverage and the entire population would be impacted. Much of the debate centers on the Exchange but Medicare would also be impacted. Closing the prescription drug “doughnut hole” would be canceled and the million Arizonans on Medicare would see costs increase. Hospitals would see a rise in uncompensated care and emergency department use would increase. The House of Representatives has voted 60 times to repeal Obamacare. It was symbolic since the bill was going nowhere. Now they have the political strength to act and truly repeal Obamacare. They look like the dog who kept chasing the car and finally caught it. What do they do now? Change is coming and the new system will be called Trumpcare. Let the arguments begin.

Goodyear bond re fi hoopla

Editor: OMG... We are being held hostage by Buckeye Water Co. $70 charge even before you turn on the poor tasting water! And... because of the holidays (their words not mine) didn’t post last months payments until Jan 5, 2017, not only making most of us paying way late instead of on time, but threw in a late fee to boot. We can’t really go to another water company, now can we? Any comments on a remedy here?...

Editor: Recently the Goodyear Finance Director wrote an article for the View lauding the City’s “proactive measures” to take advantage of lower bond rates. Did it take much smarts to do this? Homeowners do it all the time. It’s finance 1.0. Another spokesperson tells us they are “always looking for ways to best position the City financially”. The problem with that statement is they have no specific goals /plans to reduce the cost of government. In their budget Goals you’ll see no specific ,measurable commitment to do so. Mayor Lord has no interest in such actions or else this would not be the case. What the City does have is “programs”! Here are a few statements from the City Managers 2016-17 achievements: “Created comprehensive performance management strategy to drive performance enhancement and value definition focused on the customer”. Say what? Note the absence of any dollar value/cost reduction associated with this governmentese. “Development of value streams for focused Lean tool application” ( Apparently Lean is compatible with 17 new positions!!). It’s time for new leadership. This coming election we will have mayoral and council choices. It’s time for a change. Let’s take advantage of it.

major problems the incoming Administration will have to face: #1 The very real issue of a financial catastrophe ranging everywhere from deflation or inflation to confiscation of savings or penalties imposed on bank deposits. The national debt is so large that something must be done and, in reality, something will happen but whatever that is, it cannot be avoided. The consequences could be disastrous and confront the incoming Administration with difficult choices, although what happens will be the result of previous decisions: #2-The second highly important issue is that of the enemy “Trojan horse” now in their training camps inside this country and along our southern border ready to strike when they choose. One would have thought that for the last eight years (Yes, they have been there that long) the protections of the lives of Americans would come before the “rights” of a Jihadist enemy sworn to kill “infidels” (nonbelievers.) Instead we have had rationalizations such as – they are on private property and not violating the law. The FBI did not act because the sitting Administration did not label them as a “terrorist” organization. Which is the more important issue relating to public safety – technicalities or a dangerous reality? The whole situation is absurd. As national policy it looks like voluntary suicide. But, from a revolutionary tactical viewpoint it is very good strategy which depends upon cooperation from the host country. How will the incoming Administration deal with #1? Will they address #2?

Art show to feature work by Buckeye teens by Glenn Gullickson staff writer

Work created by emerging artists attending school in Buckeye will be on display during the first Buckeye Youth Council Art Gala Teen Art Show. The event will be from 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday in the lobby of Buckeye City Hall, 530 E. Monroe Ave., Buckeye. All types of art to be exhibited has been done by Buckeye youths ages 13 to 19, according to Elijah Rusk of the Buckeye Youth Council. “We want to show the diversity within Buckeye,” said Elijah, a freshman at Skyview High School, who is responsible for marketing the event and submitted some of his own work for the show. Art on display will include drawings, paintings and photographs, some created as part of school assignments, others done independently, Elijah said. “These artists are fantastic,” he said. “I look at their paintings and drawings,

and it’s a portal into the creative minds of teenagers.” Members of the Youth Council started work on the project in August 2016 and selected the works to be on display for an event that will also include refreshments and music by a local teen pianist. “We’re trying to make this pretty classy,” Elijah said. The artists will have the opportunity to sell their work during the show. The council hopes to make the art show an annual event, Elijah said. About 10 youths serve on the city-funded Buckeye Youth Council, which Elijah said works to improve the city through community service and other projects. “It’s sort of like a mini city council,” he said. “We’re trying to improve the lives of our Buckeye citizens.” Admission to the show is free.

Buckeye Days celebrates western heritage Cattle drive, rodeo, festival among events over 2 weekends by Glenn Gullickson staff writer

A cattle drive, rodeo and western show will be highlights when Buckeye celebrates its western heritage during two weekends of events. The sixth annual Buckeye Days starts Saturday and continues Jan. 27-29 at various locations in Buckeye. “This is something that’s great for the whole family,” said Tammy Noble of the Buckeye Main Street Coalition, which organizes the event with the support of the city of Buckeye. Last year’s Buckeye Days attracted up to 9,000 people, making it one of the biggest events in the city and a good economic driver for the downtown area, Noble said. The Main Street Coalition, a volunteer organization dedicated to revitalizing downtown Buckeye, started Buckeye Days after the Chamber of Commerce ended its sponsorship of the rodeo. Other features were added over the years, Noble said. The rodeo, sanctioned by the National Senior Pro Rodeo Association, includes divisions for men and women, with events such as bull riding, calf roping, ribbon roping and bronc riding. “There’s everything you would find at a regular rodeo,” Noble said. Last year, about 300 people competed in the rodeo, with participants ranging in age from 40 to 78, Nobel said. “They put on a really good show,” she said. “You wouldn’t know the difference between them and the pros.” The following are event highlights: • Bulls and Sheep at 2 p.m. Saturday will feature a bull-riding performance at Helzapoppin’ Rodeo Arena, 601 N. Fourth St., Buckeye. There will be “muttin’ bustin’” with sheep for the first 20 riders ages 5 to 7. Tickets are $10 for general admission, free to children 12 and younger. • Contestants who applied for events that were filled for the rodeo will participate in slack runs starting at 10 a.m. Jan. 27 at Helzapoppin’ Rodeo Arena. • The Friends of the Library will host a barbecue dinner at 6:30 p.m. Jan. 27 at Buckeye Elementary School, 211 S. Seventh St., Buckeye. • About 50 head of cattle followed by super-sized trucks will be driven down Monroe Avenue from Ninth Street to Second Street in Historic Downtown

Knights top Lobos in top of region clash Westview’s Williams scores 38, helps win streak reach 15 by Shane McOwen sports writer

Westview boys basketball kept its perfect power-points record in tact Jan. 10 with an 82-75 home win over region rival La Joya. The Knights broke a 35-35 deadlock at halftime, fueled by a monster game from D’maurian Williams to pull away for their 14th BOYS consecutive victory to move to 16-1 on the season. BASKETBALL Westview won again Jan. 13 against Surprise Valley Vista to move to 17-1. Williams led the Knights over La Joya with 38 points, scoring from all over the court to take over the game. “What you saw is what you’re going to see,” Westview coach Brendan McEvoy said. “He can break a whole team down.” La Joya’s Tre Mitchell scored 30 to lead the Lobos. Quincy Smith added 24, with 18 coming in the first half. The Lobos weren’t able to match Westview’s efficiency from the field, however, shooting 38 percent to the Knights’ 55 percent. La Joya coach Roger Lefebvre said he was disappointed with his team’s defensive efficiency. “We just didn’t guard anyone,” Lefebvre said. “Bottom line, we didn’t guard. We hold teams to 62 points a game, and they’re scoring what they did. They’re scoring 64 points a game, and they’re scoring what they did.” La Joya fell to 10-4 on the season, with all four losses by single digits. Lefebvre said his team wasted opportunities against Westview. “We didn’t capitalize on foul trouble,” Lefebvre said. “We’re not making free throws, not hitting layups in the first half. Free throws and lay ups. It’s all the stuff I talk about all the time: Free throws, lay ups and rebounding. Bottom line is they beat us, period.” McEvoy said his team handled the slow start well, and found its way in the second half. “La Joya worries me, they can play,” McEvoy said. “I’ve said it all week, they’re a bad matchup for us because they do a lot of things well. They’re very athletic, gritty, tough, scrappy, [and] they’re a little quicker than we are. I was proud of our guys in the second half. They did a really good job.” Entering the big region tilt, both teams may have tried to do too much early. Neither side shot the ball particularly well in the first quarter, and both were turning the ball over

Clash (From Page 11) at a high rate. La Joya held a 12-10 advantage after the first quarter thanks to tough, under control defense, and not giving the Knights many good looks. Both the Knights and Lobos unlocked the offensive door in the second, combining for 48 points. Westview’s offense struggled in the first and early in the second, but got a boost from bench big man Ezra Phillips. Phillips scored nine in the second quarter by taking control of the paint, and imposing his will scoring and rebounding. “He can do that for us,� McEvoy said. “They were hurting us on the boards, and that’s one thing Ezra will do, he’ll board. He’ll make his layups and his free throws. There are definitely situations where he’ll be successful for us. He had a big impact on tonight’s game.� Williams also made his mark in the quarter, scoring seven of his 10 points in the last 64 seconds of the half, helping erase a four-point deficit to tie the game at 35-35. Williams’ hand got even hotter in the third quarter, scoring 12 points to pace the Knights. His Euro-step layup with 31 seconds to go in the third gave the Knights the lead for good. Westview’s lead ballooned to 12 in the fourth quarter, before La Joya cut into it, but it wasn’t enough for the Lobos in the end. “I think our guys handled adversity really well,� McEvoy said. “You saw us claw back in and tie it at half. You saw us build a small lead, hang on to it, and never really let it get within five near the end. That’s a credit to their toughness and focus.� Josh Tafoya and Phillips each added 11 points for Westview. The Knights have been on fire all season. Westview finished runners-up in the Welcome to the Jungle Tournament in Gilbert over Thanksgiving, won the Scorpion Challenge during the winter break and have not lost a power-points game this season. While Williams had a dominating performance against La Joya, the Knights are far from a one-man show. Williams’ 38 points eclipsed the previous team high for a game, when Brenden Van Dyke scored 37 against Estrella Foothills in the Scorpion Challenge championship. Multiple elite scoring threats and a team full of players who are excelling in their roles has made Westview a tough out for anyone so far this season, McEvoy said. Westview continued its winning ways on the road against Valley Vista Jan. 13. The Knights beat the Monsoon 71-59. Van Dyke led the scoring with 27 points. Williams had 21 and Josh Tafoya had 18 on 62 percent shooting. The Knights moved up to No. 4 in the 6A state rankings, behind only Tempe Corona del Sol, Chandler Basha and Phoenix Desert Vista. The Lobos have had trouble out of the gate following the winter break under Lefebvre, but won their first game in January before falling to Westview. “Normally, every year we lose the first game out of break, but we played Tucson last week [and won],� Lefebvre said. “I put that in there specifically, and we won that one. Is it when we come back to school, I don’t know. There is no excuse, we weren’t ready to play.� La Joya got back to its winning ways with a big win over Glendale Copper Canyon, 84-64, Jan. 13. The Lobos currently sit at No. 18 in the 6A rankings. La Joya and Westview each played Tuesday, but results were unavailable at press time. The Lobos host Tolleson at 7 p.m. Friday, while the Knights will play at 7 p.m. at Copper Canyon Friday.

Feb. 6, 2016. That’s the last time Tolleson’s boys soccer team lost a match — in the quarterfinal round of last season’s state tournament. The Wolverines have passed every test they’ve faced so far this season, to the tune of a 12-0 record. BOYS SOCCER Even an extended layoff — 23 days between games — couldn’t derail Tolleson’s superb form. The Wolverines suited up against Surprise Valley Vista Jan. 12 for the first time since Dec. 20, because of the winter break and a cancelation of a game when the field flooded. It took a while, but the Wolverines dusted off the cobwebs and put on a goal-scoring clinic to win 9-0. Tolleson scored at the 15-minute mark thanks to a Miguel Vasquez goal. Luis Uribe and Alexander Cuellar each added goals of their own in the half’s final seven minutes to give Tolleson a 3-0 halftime advantage. “We were getting frustrated,” Tolleson coach Ben Andronic said. “They came out with a game plan to pressure us and put us off ease, and it worked.” Tolleson produced numerous chances at the attacking end, but the ball didn’t find the back of the net with regularity until late in the half. “Not to use it as an excuse, but we were rusty,” Andronic said. “We knew it in practice, and going into this game, it was one of our game plans, to shake off the rust and play our game. “Their pressure did not make that work.

We had to cool down and keep our heads composed.” Tolleson’s perseverance paid off in full, as the Wolverines put on a scoring clinic in the final 40 minutes. The Wolverines scored six goals: two from Cesar Martinez and one each from Angel De Los Rios, Emmanuel Rayas, Moises Palacios and Armando Valdez. The Wolverines kept the second-half hot streak going two days later against Mesa Westwood, steamrolling the Warriors 8-1. “We know what we can do at our best,” Andronic said. “We’re not there yet. We were getting there toward the end of the calendar year.”

Tolleson is currently the No. 4 seed in the 6A power-points rankings. Unfortunately for the Wolverines, they’re the lowest-rated undefeated side, behind Phoenix Brophy Prep and Tempe Corona del Sol. Gilbert, with one loss and one draw to its name, is one spot above Tolleson in the rankings. Tolleson is the only team in the top 16 with a negative average opponent rating. “The kids know what can happen,” Andronic said. “As a team, as coaches, as players, we’re aware we don’t have the greatest strength of schedule. If you look at the power points, we’re the lowest undefeated team in the rankings. We know

if we lose one, it could drop us down pretty bad, just because of our schedule and the way it was made this year.” Andronic said the team has developed a chip on its shoulder from the strength of scheduling, and wants to prove it belongs with the teams at the top of the rankings. “We know what we have to do,” he said. “We’ve still got to win them all. We still have to go out there and play. We’ve had some good, tough battles against teams in the first half, and in the second, we’ve got to close it out against teams in our region. “We’re looking forward to continuing our region play, and hopefully, we come out on top.”

Tolleson is currently the No. 4 seed in the 6A power-points rankings. Unfortunately for the Wolverines, they’re the lowest-rated undefeated side, behind Phoenix Brophy Prep and Tempe Corona del Sol. Gilbert, with one loss and one draw to its name, is one spot above Tolleson in the rankings. Tolleson is the only team in the top 16 with a negative average opponent rating. “The kids know what can happen,” Andronic said. “As a team, as coaches, as players, we’re aware we don’t have the greatest strength of schedule. If you look at the power points, we’re the lowest undefeated team in the rankings. We know

if we lose one, it could drop us down pretty bad, just because of our schedule and the way it was made this year.” Andronic said the team has developed a chip on its shoulder from the strength of scheduling, and wants to prove it belongs with the teams at the top of the rankings. “We know what we have to do,” he said. “We’ve still got to win them all. We still have to go out there and play. We’ve had some good, tough battles against teams in the first half, and in the second, we’ve got to close it out against teams in our region. “We’re looking forward to continuing our region play, and hopefully, we come out on top.”

Millennium’s full-court press proved too much for Tolleson to handle in the teams’ boys basketball region matchup Jan. 13, as the Tigers blew past the Wolverines 69-49. The Tigers’ aggressive defense was the catalyst in stretching the team’s lead from four points early in the second quarter to 18 by BOYS halftime. BASKETBALL “We went from zone to man [defense] and switched it up a couple times,” Millennium coach Brian Fisk said. “I think that bothered them. We were both short handed tonight, but I think we’re a little bit deeper, so that worked in our favor.” For Tolleson, everything went wrong at the same time, coach Jeffery Wilbur said. “Not handling their press hurt us a lot in the second quarter,” Wilbur said. “We had a few lapses defensively that happened about the same exact time as that. Those two in combination put us too far down.” The Wolverines were able to cut the lead to 15 in the fourth quarter, but didn’t have enough firepower to get it any closer the rest of the way. “Second half, we fought back and played hard, I thought, but we just dug too big of a hole,” Wilbur said. Tolleson has been plagued with early deficits all season, Wilbur said. “That’s been an issue we’ve had in several games this year,” he said. “We’ve dug a big hole in the second quarter, first quarter, and [in the second half], we come out guns blazing, but it’s not enough.”

KAREEM SHARP, left, of Tolleson and Millennium’s Eric Fahy watch the ball carom away Jan. 13 after battling for a rebound. The Tigers outscored the Wolverines by 14 points in the second quarter and won 69-49.

The Tigers have been trending upward since a rough start to the season. In the team’s first nine games, Millennium went 2-7. The win over Tolleson put the Tigers above .500 for the nine games since, at 5-4. “It’s been up and down all season,” Fisk said. “We’ve had a lot of guys go down with injuries. A couple of our guards have been in and out, playing hurt. It seems like we’re [alternating] wins and losses. We have to start putting some wins together.” Fisk said the Tigers’ best chance at making some noise in region play is everyone getting healthy. Millennium expects to get Morningstar Takapu back in the lineup

for the stretch run of games, which will help solidify the post, Fisk said. Takapu has missed the entire season with a Jones fracture in his foot. “We might have him for the last five games of the season,” Fisk said. Fisk said the team’s goal for the rest of the season is to steal a game from Westview and La Joya, the top two in the 6A Southwest Region standings, and run the table against the rest of the region. Tolleson’s rough start has turned into a rough season, with the Wolverines at 5-14 and winless on the road.

“[It’s] been extremely disappointing, there’s no other way to say it,” Wilbur said. Tolleson’s had a couple of close calls: A one-point loss to Yuma Catholic and an overtime loss to Agua Fria in December. Tolleson faced district foe Glendale Copper Canyon Tuesday. The result was unavailable at press time. The Wolverines play at La Joya at 7 p.m. Friday. Millennium took on Westview Tuesday, result unavailable at press time. The Tigers host Surprise Valley Vista at 7 p.m. Friday.

Tigers smash Wolverines by Shane McOwen sports writer

Millennium’s full-court press proved too much for Tolleson to handle in the teams’ boys basketball region matchup Jan. 13, as the Tigers blew past the Wolverines 69-49. The Tigers’ aggressive defense was the catalyst in stretching the team’s lead from four points early in the second quarter to 18 by BOYS halftime. BASKETBALL “We went from zone to man [defense] and switched it up a couple times,” Millennium coach Brian Fisk said. “I think that bothered them. We were both short handed tonight, but I think we’re a little bit deeper, so that worked in our favor.” For Tolleson, everything went wrong at the same time, coach Jeffery Wilbur said. “Not handling their press hurt us a lot in the second quarter,” Wilbur said. “We had a few lapses defensively that happened about the same exact time as that. Those two in combination put us too far down.” The Wolverines were able to cut the lead to 15 in the fourth quarter, but didn’t have enough firepower to get it any closer the rest of the way. “Second half, we fought back and played hard, I thought, but we just dug too big of a hole,” Wilbur said. Tolleson has been plagued with early deficits all season, Wilbur said. “That’s been an issue we’ve had in several games this year,” he said. “We’ve dug a big hole in the second quarter, first quarter, and [in the second half], we come out guns blazing, but it’s not enough.”

The Tigers have been trending upward since a rough start to the season. In the team’s first nine games, Millennium went 2-7. The win over Tolleson put the Tigers above .500 for the nine games since, at 5-4. “It’s been up and down all season,” Fisk said. “We’ve had a lot of guys go down with injuries. A couple of our guards have been in and out, playing hurt. It seems like we’re [alternating] wins and losses. We have to start putting some wins together.” Fisk said the Tigers’ best chance at making some noise in region play is everyone getting healthy. Millennium expects to get Morningstar Takapu back in the lineup

for the stretch run of games, which will help solidify the post, Fisk said. Takapu has missed the entire season with a Jones fracture in his foot. “We might have him for the last five games of the season,” Fisk said. Fisk said the team’s goal for the rest of the season is to steal a game from Westview and La Joya, the top two in the 6A Southwest Region standings, and run the table against the rest of the region. Tolleson’s rough start has turned into a rough season, with the Wolverines at 5-14 and winless on the road.

Tolleson wrestling is navigating a bit of a transition year with a roster heavy on underclassmen, head coach John Padilla said. “It’s a learning WRESTLING curve,” Padilla said. “I’m really pleased with the kids who’ve stuck with it. They’ve done really well. They’ve picked up a lot, their effort has been good. The older guys, we’re lucky the older guys are our heavyweights. They’re our leaders.” Tolleson is short on experience this season overall, but has a few guys who’ve been great examples for the younger wrestlers, Padilla said. Jabreel Edwards, Angel Torres, Gregorio Garcia and Carlos Luna have taken the reins of leadership this season. Edwards is currently wrestling in the 220-pound weight class, but has been at 195 for much of the year, and has done well, Padilla said. “Jabreel has got a lot of experience,” Padilla said. “I expected him to do real well, and he has.” Angel Torres, heavyweight, and Gregorio Garcia, 172 pounds, have also had strong years. Carlos Luna competed for the first time this season Jan. 11 against Alhambra and won his match after missing the first half of the season with a shoulder injury. “He was injured in football and he didn’t get cleared until December,” Padilla said. “[He wore] a shoulder harness. I was looking to see what his stress level was going to be, if he could handle it. I think it was a confidence level that his injury wasn’t going to hinder him. I don’t think he’s even been hurt before, [so] this was his first time dealing with an injury. I thought he did good.”

JABREEL EDWARDS, right, of Tolleson puts Alhambra’s Josh Nance in a guillotine choke Jan. 11 during a meet at Tolleson. Edwards won by pinfall in the 220-pound matchup. Padilla said sophomore David Valaro has been one of the most improved wrestlers for the team. “David Valaro, the 106-pounder, I really like him,” Padilla said. “He came out this year as a sophomore and picked it up very fast. He’s done a good job.” Tolleson is only 3-12 in dual meets, but lost many of them because of having to forfeit matches at certain weight classes.

“We’ve had a couple of injuries,” Padilla said. “We were giving away probably about 24 to 30 points a match. It’s tough to come back from that.” The Wolverines began the season with roughly 40 wrestlers on the team, but that number has dropped to 25. “We’d like to get those up, and we’re going to do that,” Padilla said. “Those numbers are going to start coming up

because we’re moving guys up to the varsity to get experience. We’ll probably end up with 12 weight classes.” Padilla believes the future is bright with this group, he said. “I think this year is a transition year coming back up,” Padilla said. “Next year, we’ll have a lot more juniors with two senior leaders. I’m really pleased. We’re moving in a positive direction.”

Pair of free-kick goals doom Estrella Foothills in 2-1 defeat to Higley by Casey Pritchard sports editor

Estrella Foothills’ girls soccer team was riding an 11-game winning streak into its Jan. 12 matchup with Gilbert Higley, the toughest opponent the Lady Wolves have faced to date. Estrella showed promise in dominating time of possession, but a pair of free-kick goals were GIRLS SOCCER the Lady Wolves’ demise in a 2-1 loss. “We’re good,” Estrella coach Rosie Gonzalez said. “We win and we lose as champions. We had momentum the whole game.” Momentum started from the opening whistle. Estrella had a handful of early chances, including one where Halee Yeager’s shot from just outside the 18-yard box tipped off the fingers of Higley goalkeeper Aleksia Vranjes and off the crossbar. “We started very high paced,” Gonzalez said. “That’s our game plan, go high paced. Unfortunately, we were tackling and tackling, and the ball just didn’t go in for us.” The Lady Wolves continued to dominate the run of play, and Anita Moreno had a glorious chance at the left post with just under eight minutes to play in the first half, but her shot was barely wide. Higley struck first with 3:50 remaining in the half when Kendyl Neus had a free kick from 40 yards away on the right sideline and blasted it over Estrella goalkeeper Madi Kimbrell and into the net for a 1-0 lead. It didn’t take Estrella long in the second half to knot the score at 1-1. Suzanne Duggan sent a beautiful cross into the box where Moreno beat a slew of defenders and got her head on it, deflecting it over Vranjes and into the net. “It was an amazing goal,” Gonzalez said. “She had five players on her. I just saw she was in the middle and knew she got something out of it.” Estrella kept pushing the play, but couldn’t produce the go-ahead goal. Higley’s defense had a lot to do with that, as the Lady Knights clogged the middle and pushed Estrella into wide positions where they weren’t able to get many quality chances. With 15:46 remaining, Higley got the game-winning goal in similar fashion to how it scored the opener. After a foul just inside midfield, Neus took another long free kick, this time from 35 yards away, putting it up and over Kimbrell again. “We didn’t do anything different,” Gonzalez said of the second free kick. “We let them take the hit and we can have our goalie handle it. It was one of those shots you could barely get your hands on.”

Close call Estrella pushed for the equalizer in the final 15 minutes, but couldn’t produce a result. The closest the Lady Wolves

The foul could have resulted in a PK, but instead was ruled a free kick outside the box. The Lady Wolves lost 2-1 for their first defeat of the season. got was on a free kick just outside the 18-yard box, which could have resulted in a penalty kick. Yeager was fouled right at the line of the penalty area, but the referee deemed the foul to have been committed outside the box. “When she fell, she definitely fell inside the box,” Gonzalez said. “The refs, unfortunately they do have a big part in the game. We can’t argue with the refs. I thought it was inside the box, she said it was a step out.” Duggan’s free kick went right into the goal mouth, but Higley managed to clear the ball before an Estrella player could get a touch.

“Suzie had a nice cross, we just couldn’t get our head on it,” Gonzalez said. “When we had drop balls, they would drop everybody and only leave one forward. So, they had more bodies on defense than we did.” The Wolves had little in the means of a solid scoring chance the rest of the way. “The girls pressured and we deserved the game, but that’s the way soccer goes sometimes,” Gonzalez said. Estrella’s loss dropped the team from fourth to seventh in the 4A power-points rankings, while Higley moved from eighth to fifth with the win. Estrella’s final four games are all in 4A

Southwest Region play. The four other teams in the region have a combined 8-23 record. The first of those four region games was Tuesday at Gila Ridge. The result was unavailable at press time. Estrella hosts Youngker at 6 p.m. Thursday. “I tell the girls, we win and we lose as champions,” Gonzalez said. “Every game is a learning experience, we take it and start getting ready for the next one.” Casey Pritchard can be reached at caseypritchard@westvalleyview.com or on Twitter @CaseyonSports.

The Far West Steelers proved their worth against the best of the best during the Pop Warner Super Bowl Dec. 3-10 at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Kissimmee, Fla. The Steelers, made up of 22 players who are all 10 and 11 years old, won three games in Florida to capture the team’s first National FOOTBALL Championship, beating the Virginia Beach Mustangs, 22-14, in the Junior Pee Wee division final. The Steelers won the Arizona Division I state championship to earn a place in regionals, where they beat two teams from California to qualify for the Florida championships. “When we got there, everybody overlooked us,” Steelers coach Vince Del Ponte said. “We don’t have the big-time athletes those teams had. The biggest difference between us and the other teams is we play as a team. They expect their athletes to take care of business for them, but we relied on the team as a whole, and they came up big for us.” Come up big, they did. The Steelers took it to the Hartford, Conn., Hurricanes in the first game, 39-12. The team was able to overcome the wave of emotions that hit during the game to secure a dominating victory.

Desert Edge extended its lead to 45-27 after three quarters. Karina Montano scored eight of the Lady Scorpions’ 10 points in the third. “We found her in transition a couple times, she made a couple moves, she finished strong,” Behnke said. “It’s important for her because obviously she’s not the biggest post player in terms of height. Some games she’s been struggling a bit, so to help her confidence, I think was big for her to get rolling a little bit and show that she can do it. She has great footwork, great hands.” Desert Edge put the game away with a strong fourth quarter, outscoring the Lady Owls 16-4. Despite the less than stellar showing, Polvino said his team will be ready the next time. “You’ve got to change things up the second time around, and we’re looking forward to the other ones, too, but I like our chances overall to get to the tournament,” Polvino said. “We told the kids that, and to keep plugging away.” Desert Edge was led by Kinsel’s 20 points, while Karina Montano had 13. That was her second biggest scoring output of the season. Agua Fria was led by Sophia Dunne, who had 14 points. She was also 8 of 13 from the free-throw line. “She’s been our rock inside,” Polvino said. “We don’t have the height, but we can play inside when we need it.” Both teams were back in action Tuesday, but results were unavailable at press time. At 7 p.m. today, Agua Fria travels to Phoenix Barry Goldwater, while Desert Edge is at Verrado.

Steelers (From Page 17) “None of my kids had ever been to Florida in that type of environment,” Del Ponte said. “It’s the Pop Warner Super Bowl, those are the best teams in the country. Halfway through the game, half the team was crying. The game was going fast, they were in shock.”

Defense in semis The Steelers used a great defensive performance — something the team wasn’t used to relying on — to win the semifinal game against the North Philadelphia Aztecs, 10-0. “We had a really great offense,” Del Ponte said. “We never really had to worry because our offense was so out of

sight. When we got up there, we realized everybody was faster than us, bigger than us. We had to rely on our defense to keep us in games. They really did an amazing job. I think if it wasn’t for our defense, we really would have lost in the early rounds.” The Steelers wrapped things up against Virginia Beach. The Steelers are the latest from the Far West Association to win a national championship. The Far West Jets team has won multiple national championships, the most recent in 2014. Del Ponte said the association’s success has a lot to do with a healthy culture of everyone looking out for one another. He credited Far West coaches Jason Kindred of the Jets and former coach Mark King of the Hombres, both multiple time state champions, as two coaches who’ve helped pave the way for teams such as

the rivalry part so we can take care of business.” Take care of business is exactly what the Lady Scorpions did, and it didn’t take them long to grab a stranglehold on the game. Desert Edge jumped to a 10-1 lead in the first 2 minutes, 15 seconds, forcing Polvino to call timeout. Agua Fria crept back into the game by getting the ball down low and creating fouls so it could shoot free throws. The score was 15-11 Desert Edge with 2:29 remaining in the quarter, but the Lady Scorpions finished the period on an 8-1 run. Mackenzie Kinsel had 10 of Desert Edge’s 23 points in the first quarter. “Early in the season, we depended on Mackenzie a lot,” Behnke said. “We’re trying to get better balance from our starters, but she hadn’t hit some of her outside shots recently, so it was good to see her knock some down. It’s good to get her some confidence, get her some momentum.” Desert Edge led 35-18 at halftime, outscoring Agua Fria 12-6 in the second quarter. One of the Lady Scorpions’ possessions included eight offensive rebounds, leading to nine shot attempts. Sarahi Montano made the possession count with a driving layup at the end of the possession. “We create a lot of great opportunities for ourselves, and finishing, obviously, like any team is really important for us,” Behnke said. “Getting the ball next to the basket, we have to be a little better at that, a little stronger, absorb contact a little better. They’re hustling for the rebounds, but if there’s a group of people, they just throw it up there … I don’t think half the people looked half the time where they

the Steelers. He also credited various high school coaches who donate time to work with the players. “They took the time to teach us what they know, and weren’t afraid to show some secrets,” Del Ponte said. “It was up to us to ask our own questions. We kind of copied what they did; they’re pretty good.”

Off the field While the Steelers took care of business on the field, the team had a few tall tasks ahead of it off the field. Traci Del Ponte, the team’s business manager, said the trip to Florida cost in the ballpark of $40,000. “The association gave us some money, but we knew there was a possibility we could go [to Florida], so we started fundraising [the first day of practice] Aug. 1,” Traci said. The team sold candles, cookie dough, held yard sales and connected with local

businesses to host pancake breakfast fundraisers. “You name it, we did it,” Traci said. The players’ hard work off the field helped make the trip to the Super Bowl a roaring success, Traci said. “Everything was paid for once we got there,” she said. “The kids got wristbands that let them go to all of the [Disney theme] parks for free. They went on charter buses everywhere. All their meals were paid for the entire 10 days. It was really neat.” They will even get championship rings as a reward for the win, and were also honored with a sportsmanship award, Traci said. “No taunting, no targeting, no trash talking. Best behavior, pretty much,” she said. Shane McOwen can be reached at smcowen@westvalleyview.com or on Twitter @ShaneMcOwen.

Story time

Baby time

The West Valley View publishes on Wednesday. The 9 Days a Week calendar — a listing of entertainment events such as concerts, theatrical performances, events for schools, churches, county parks and nonprofit groups — runs every issue. Events must be open to the public to be considered and generally must be held within the View’s coverage area, which is south of Northern Avenue, west of Loop 101, plus all of Tolleson, extends to Estrella on the south and Tonopah on the west. Events such as concerts and theatrical performances that fall outside of the View’s circulation area will be considered as there are no concert halls or theater venues within our boundaries. Fundraisers that are held at restaurants where only a portion of the proceeds benefits the charity or nonprofit will not be considered. 9 Days a Week calendar items print on a spaceavailable basis; the only way to guarantee that an item will print is to purchase an advertisement.

Donald “Big Don” West Donald Richard West, born September 13, 1947, passed away peacefully with his family by his side, Wednesday January 11, 2017. Donnie is survived by his best friend and loving wife of 20 years, Barbara, his sons Tim and Rob, his daughters Sue, Cathy and Nancy, 11 grandchildren, 1 greatgrandson and his two feline friends, Lucy and Lucky. “Big Don,” as he was fondly known by friends, will be sadly missed by many in the Goodyear community. Donnie truly had the biggest heart and would give the shirt off his back, never leaving a friend in need. He often volunteered at the American Legion Hall, and prayers always included the brave men and women in the Armed Forces. Donnie was very proud of his Native American heritage and loved adding to his collection of totems and pottery whenever he could. He loved football and, as a California transplant in 2000, was slowly converting to a Cardinal fan (as long as they were winning), but he remained a hard-core, faithful San Francisco Forty-Niner fan. He also loved NASCAR, NHRA drag racing, cooking, and arts and crafts.
