CARRIE LIGHTFOOT of The Well Armed Woman shoots a vintage World War II Howitzer cannon with AZFirearms April 3 in Buckeye. The cannon was featured in the new movie Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. To see all photos from this shoot, go to www.westvalleyview.com/pictures.

Batman and Superman may be the big guns of the superhero world, but an Avondale firearms shop was called on to provide some of the firepower for the movie about the clash of the titans. AZFirearms supplied two vintage Howitzer cannons that are featured in a scene in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. “They’re 7,000 pounds of pure machine,” said Dan Todd, owner of AZFirearms. Todd said when he bought the cannons about two years ago, he was told to expect calls from Hollywood since the guns had been used in previous films. The Batman v Superman production company contacted Todd about a year and a half ago, then came to Avondale and spent a week painting and detailing the cannons. The weapons were transported by trailer to New Mexico, with Todd and his son-in-law, Jason Jameson, traveling by air to witness a week of filming at an old mining camp about 20 miles west of Deming. “I had to be with the cannons,” said Todd, who showed the movie makers how to set up the weapons, which shot blanks. The experience that Todd called “awesome” included meeting the (See Guns on Page 5)

Avondale’s residential and commercial growth is striking a balance for a future that the city’s mayor said could include highrise office buildings, the return of a popular annual celebration and perhaps even national recognition. Mayor Kenn Weise delivered his State of the City address with the theme “Striking a Balance” March 30 near the bowling lanes at Main Event, an entertainment complex that’s one of the city’s major new commercial developments. “2015 was a great year for Avondale,” Weise told a group of about 180 public officials, business leaders and others who attended the event. Among the new developments opening soon is Copper Springs Hospital, which Weise said will have 150 high-wage jobs. Two locations for QuikTrip gas and convenience stores will also open this year and seven restaurants will open in the next 18 months along McDowell Road, Weise said. Other developments include the construction of a facility for Copper State Rubber and 200,000 square feet of entertainment and retail

space on the city’s east side, Weise said. “If 2015 was the year of groundbreakings, 2016 will be the year of ribbon-cuttings,” Weise said. He said the city should be willing to take risks to attract future development, including high-rise office buildings where Interstate 10 runs through the city. “We are in a very competitive market,” Weise said. “If we do not try harder, we will not land those businesses.” Weise said Avondale is among the healthiest home construction markets in the country, with an increase of 175 percent in permits for new houses in 2015. “People want to live in Avondale. This is where they want to raise their families,” he said. “They will eat, they will shop, they will play here.” Weise credited city government for promoting Avondale’s progress and investing in core services. “Avondale remains among the most stable government organizations in the Valley of the Sun,” Weise said. As the city observes its 70th anniversary this year, Weise called for the return of Billy Moore Days,

AVONDALE MAYOR Kenn Weise speaks at the annual State of the City address March 30 at Main Event Entertainment in Avondale. an annual celebration of Avondale’s founder that was canceled after the 2008 festival because of the economic downturn. “These events bring families together,” Weise said, noting that other cities stage similar events to promote their history.

Weise also noted that Avondale is among 20 cities named as finalists for the 2016 All-America City Award. A team from the city will present Avondale’s story June 17-18 at the National Civic League meeting in Denver, where 10 winners will be named.

Robert Duffell

A Buckeye teenager changed his plea to guilty in the Dec. 26, 2014, fatal shooting of his girlfriend in Tonopah, court records state. Robert Duffell, 18, pleaded guilty March 30 to second-degree murder and first-degree burglary. His sentencing is May 13, records state. Duffell and his girlfriend, 15-year-old Leah Costa, ran away two days before the shooting, records state. He was found Dec. 27 dehydrated and

disoriented walking along Interstate 10 by Arizona Department of Transportation troopers. Duffell told police he believed Leah had been shot, but didn’t say why he thought that or who would have done it, records state. Her body was found Dec. 29 in the desert southwest of Courthouse Road and Salome Highway in Tonopah, and Duffell was arrested shortly after. Police said the teenage couple broke into a Tonopah home Dec. 26, stole three handguns and shot at the homeowner.

2 teens arrested at Estrella Foothills after marijuana, prescription pills found by Emily Toepfer assistant editor

Two teenagers were arrested March 30 at Estrella Foothills High School in Goodyear after one was allegedly found in the parking lot with drugs packaged for sale and the other allegedly assaulted an officer, police said. Tucker Stoddard, 18, faces charges of possession of Tucker dangerous drugs, possession Stoddard of dangerous drugs for sale, possession of dangerous drugs in a drug-free school zone, possession of marijuana for sale and possession of drug paraphernalia, said Lisa Kutis, a spokeswoman for the Goodyear Police Department. School officials said Stoddard is not a current or former student at the school and was in the visitor parking lot when he was arrested at about 2:55 p.m. at the campus, 13033 S. Estrella Parkway. “We did not have any dealings with him prior to yesterday that I know of,” Principal Leslie Standerfer said. Stoddard allegedly had a pound of marijuana and a full bottle of prescription pills in his possession at the school, as well as a large amount of cash and drug paraphernalia,

Kutis said. His girlfriend, Aaliyah Gutierrez, 18, who is a student at the school, was arrested after allegedly assaulting an officer by kicking his leg, police said. She faces charges of assault on a police officer, escape in the second degree and obstructing governmental operations, Kutis said. Standerfer said the district Aaliyah has a clear drug policy, which it addresses with students at the Gutierrez beginning of the year during class assemblies along with other school conduct policies. The school investigates whenever receiving tips that students may be violating the policies, and also educates staff on signs to watch for, Standerfer said. “At [Estrella Foothills High School], we work to provide students with a safe, supportive learning environment, recognizing that if students make good choices in high school, it sets them up for success after,” she said.

Buckeye teen pleads guilty to murdering girlfriend

West Valley View, Avondale, Arizona, Wednesday, April 6, 2016

Two people were arrested March 29 at their home in Tonopah in connection to a large puppy mill busted in November, when 129 animals were seized by the Maricopa County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office, officials said. Catherine Hutchison, 61, and Kevin Main, 54, face 208 charges each: 75 counts of failure to provide medical treatment and Catherine 129 counts of animal neglect, Hutchison all misdemeanors, along with four counts of physical injury to an animal, a felony, said Deputy Joaquin Enriquez, a spokesman with MCSO. Deputies seized 122 pugs, six French bulldogs and one cat from the house near 348th Avenue and Van Buren Street after serving a search warrant at the property, Enriquez said. A tip from someone looking to buy one of the pugs led deputies to the operation earlier that month, Sheriff Joe Arpaio said. Animal crimes investigators found the dogs living in a 1,200-square-foot home in â&#x20AC;&#x153;deplorableâ&#x20AC;? conditions with no food or water, Enriquez said. Most of the dogs were kept in 2-foot by 3-foot pens with multiple dogs in each for at least nine hours at a time, records state. Hutchison and Main were allegedly booted out of a home in Phoenix three months earlier, which is

Howitzers entered production in 1941 and Todd said his guns were used by the U.S. in World War II as well as conflicts in Korea, Vietnam and Iraq. Todd said he believes the cannons, which would use a 105 mm shell, are among just four in the world held by private individuals. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These are working cannons,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re my babies. I treat them really good.â&#x20AC;? The guns, which Todd said arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t replaceable, arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t for sale, but they are listed at $110,000 each on the storeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website.

when deputies believe they moved their illegal puppy mill operation to Tonopah, officials said. The couple allegedly sold the dogs for $1,000 apiece, Arpaio said. Most of them appeared to be in decent health, but some had eye infections, were underfed, had overgrown toenails and tumors, officials said. One dog had a severe ear Kevin Main infection and was showing neurological deficits, and another had a fractured jaw that was revealed on a dental exam, records state. Twenty-nine of the pugs in the worst condition were transferred to the Arizona Pug Adoption and Rescue Network for continued treatment, Arpaio said. They suffered from conditions such as tick fever, mange, arthritis, blindness and worms, said Terri Woods, president of APARN. The remaining animals were adopted out through MCSOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s MASH Unit. Hutchison and Main had their initial appearance before a judge March 30 and were released on their own recognizance to appear later this month, Enriquez said. Emily Toepfer can be reached at etoepfer@westvalleyview.com or on Twitter @EmilyToepfer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If I sold them, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what I would ask,â&#x20AC;? he said. The movie, starring Ben Affleck and Henry Cavill and estimated to cost $250 million, got tepid reviews from critics, but dominated the box office on its opening weekend with $166 million in ticket sales. Todd said he saw the movie at a preview screening on March 22, a few days before it opened in theaters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love action movies like that,â&#x20AC;? he said. But for Todd, the movie was missing something â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a credit at the end of the film for the gun supplier, something he said he tried to negotiate after the filming. If his guns get a movie role in the future, Todd said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the first thing thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be negotiated is to be on the credits.â&#x20AC;?

OUR VIEWPOINT

BAGLEY’S OPINION — Salt Lake Tribune

EDITORIAL

There’s no such thing as a free advertisement A myth seems to be going around that if an event comes with no admission charge, the West Valley View will promote it free of charge. While we do promote several free events free of charge — consider story time or live snake feeding at the library — we also promote free of charge several events that come with a charge, such as high school plays, certain art festivals and concerts. What we won’t promote free of charge is an advertisement disguised as something else. A good rule of thumb is, if the free event is designed to drum up business, it should be promoted in a paid advertisement. We wouldn’t promote free of charge a free one-day trial membership to a gym, because it’s designed to drum up business by getting people to sign up for gym memberships. We wouldn’t promote free of charge a free dental consultation and exam, because it’s designed to drum up business by landing the dentist more patients and building up his practice. We wouldn’t promote free of charge a free bunion screening at the local podiatrist, because, you guessed it, it’s designed to drum up business. We, too, are a business. The product we sell is the advertisement. If we give away free ads, we go out of business. How long would McDonald’s stay in business if it started giving away free Big Macs to anyone who asked for one? We know, walking into a McDonald’s and asking for a free Big Mac sounds ludicrous, but imagine walking into McDonald’s, asking for the free Big Mac, being told no and then asking, “Why not?” Not so ludicrous here at the View. It’s a question we field on a daily basis. Even after we’ve explained in our initial response that what the business is asking for falls into the advertising category. Believe it or not, it doesn’t usually end there. That’s about the time the business assures us it has advertised in the past or, even better, plans to advertise in the future. As if the editorial section (meaning all the stuff in the paper that is not a paid advertisement) is a test run for advertisements. We cannot afford to give an advertisement away for free as a test run to prove to the business that advertising in the View works. Just like one couldn’t walk into McDonald’s and demand a free Big Mac with the caveat that if he likes it, he’ll pay for the next one. Besides, the time and energy that some businesses put into trying to procure an ad free of charge tells us no proof is needed, those businesses know advertising in the View works, they just don’t want to pay for it. Bottom line, if it’s designed to drum up business, it belongs in an advertisement. Our Viewpoint editorials represent the opinions of the West Valley View editorial board, which is composed of Publisher Elliott Freireich and Managing Editor Cary Hines.

OUR READERS’ VIEWPOINTS LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

etters to the editor are published without any editing. Any errors in spelling, punctuation or grammar are those of the author. Two online reader polls have indicated that a majority of View readers prefer that the letters not be edited.

You are here for a reason Editor: I was reading Darrel Brownings’ letter (2-17-16) about his near-death experience. My message to him is: “You are here because you have a purpose in life. Your late wife had to go because her job on this plane of existence has been completed.” This has to do with Karma. My mom is a 46-year member of AMORC (the Rosicrucians.) They are a philanthropic Metaphysical Society. You have to be of good character to petition for membership. They teach you to find your purpose in life, develop your mind and do remote healing through meditation. They have no nefarious intentions, like World Domination. They believe in World Peace. I was placed on their healing list when I was 15. I was hospitalized with a ruptured appendix and not expected to survive. I came out of surgery with a normal temperature and heart rate. I lost one-third of my

stomach to a bleeding ulcer. Why am I here? God only knows. My family told me I came home a different person. When I was 10, my teacher told my parent that I was retarded. I was belowaverage in school. I asked God to make me smarter than the rest of my class mates. At 19, I’m in college and earning A’s in chemistry. I had a strange dream in 1993: The Devil told me “He works for God and people often ask him for things they should be asking God for. That God ordered him to give me the good things in life and whosoever interferes will face Divine retribution.” Also, the color of God’s eyes are light green. PS: I’m nothing special. I’m quite normal. Mom and I are in Gods’ Grace. Remember to thank God for all you have and help others less fortunate. Laura Rivas Buckeye

Disabled vets served well Editor: After reading a letter by Bert Stevenson of Goodyear entitled “W Valley needs VA facility” I felt compelled to respond on behalf of my son-in-law who recently medically retired after 12 years of service. One thing Mr Stevenson did not mention in his letter was whether he is

disabled or not. My son-in-law retired with a disability rating of 90% and has had NO problems with the VA of any kind. He started at the VA hospital in Phoenix, but stopped going there only because of the lack of parking. There were no issues with the quality of services provided. He goes to the Vet Center in Phoenix once a week. He also utilizes the Northwest Clinic in Surprise, again with NO problems of any kind. Perhaps the difference between Mr Stevenson and my sonin-law is the disability rating. Disabled veterans put are in a higher priority group than vets with no service related injuries. Vets who are former POWs (Sen McCain) also are in a higher priority group. My son-in-law does have the option of seeing a civilian provider if he cannot get an appointment at a VA facility in a timely manner. He, for nonservice related injuries, and his family also see medical providers at Luke Air Force Base. In a time where the VA is constantly getting a bad rap, I want to take this opportunity to say “Well Done” for the services provided to disabled veterans. Marge Meggers Buckeye

(From Page 6)

Slaughtering coots is wrong Editor: Both the communities of Canta Mia and Starpoint in Goodyear, have man made lakes. These communities never considered the long term effects of these lakes and the environmental damage they cause. This year, hundreds of migratory Coots have called these lakes home for the winter. These beautiful birds were enjoyed by many. As always, next came the complainers. They didn’t like the color of the lake from the birds. And, they didn’t like the bird poop that was on walkways. As a result, Starpoint Community requested a permit from the Dept. Of Fish and Wildlife to end the problem. Based on so called “health and safety,” hundreds of birds were fed poisoned food. Those that did not die immediately were then gathered up and clubbed to death. Those that made it back into the lake drowned and were then gathered up for disposal. Of course the HOA was careful to “bait” these birds at the farthest end of the lake so that residents would not have to see the carnage. I am completely revolted by this situation. Arizona has a water problem that is getting even worse. Yet, builders are allowed to put in massive water features in the desert. While not commonly known, these lakes use ground water to replenish the lakes. That is our drinking water! How long must we wait, and how much of our wildlife be butchered before the State deals with the issue? It is illegal by Arizona Statute to “bait’ migratory birds. I was not aware that HOA laws supercede State or Federal law. The HOAs have overstepped their bounds (again). Please people, contact your representatives. Let’s not allow this type of HOA deviant behavior to continue. Sue Coady Goodyear

Editor: As Americans we have enjoyed our freedom for over 200 years now. We have always welcomed people from other nations willing to come to our shores and become American citizens and assimilate into our culture and way of life. We can no longer just open the flood gates into America because in the past people came here to make a better life. Now we have people, determined to destroy us and our way of life. Not all Muslims are bad but until we can figure out who is who why take the chance of an attack here at home? They are fleeing their countries and come here. We are again sending our military to fight in their country for them while they are over here. I served in the military and I believe in apple pie, cowboys and the American way of life we hold precious. What are we going to do set up metal detectors everywhere? We already have enough of that in our once public buildings. I am not willing to give up our way of life here in USA to accommodate people that are determined to destroy our country and our way of life. Just look to the WTC, Boston Marathon, and San Bernardino, CA. Wake up America! Give us you’re tired you’re poor on the Statue of Liberty does not include those who wish us harm to our way of life. Listen to the Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln speech from the Disneyland attraction. If destruction be our lot it will come from within. We need to close our borders so we know who is entering our country, not just opening the flood gates and hoping whoever crosses our borders means us well. The old way just does not work anymore. Larry Carter Goodyear

Trump vs. Winfrey Editor: Donald Trump supporters are praising him for turning a million dollar loan from his father into a four billion dollar net worth.

Oprah on the other hand turned a zero dollar loan from her father into a three billion dollar net worth. On the way to attaining her fortune she launched the careers of Dr. Phil, Rachael Rae, Suze Orman, Dr, Mehmet Oz, Lyana Van Zant, Gail King, Lisa Price, Nate Bekus and Bob Green. Donald Trump only fired people, By the way in 1994 Oprah ran The Marine Corps marathon in 4hrs.29mins,at age forty. Paul Ryan the house majority leader at age 20 ran his one and only marathon in 4hrs.1min. and lied in an interview on radio an said he ran it in under 3hrs. Bueford Tunstell Avondale

GOP to blame for election fiasco Editor: The Arizona Democratic Party has finally woken up after the debacle this past Tuesday, March 22. It is a virtual certainty that Arizona’s status to enact new voter laws will be once again be subject to “pre-clearance” by the Federal Government because of all of the voter suppression tactics used in this primary which have now become palpable. Secondly, party monitors will now much more closely scrutinize the elections in November at the polling stations to ensure that there is no hubris with poll workers getting creative in prohibiting legitimate registered voters from exercising their right and responsibility to vote. It is almost certain that these monitors will have the most current voter registration rolls with them in case any voters are challenged. If any voters are challenged, these monitors will be right in the poll workers’ faces to ask them to produce the evidence for the rejection. They will have the ACLU and special attorneys on speedial in case there is a confrontation or conflagration over this. If the Sheriff should have his deputies there to obstruct this protection of voters, the monitors will be (See Letters on Page 8)

The other civic duty by Anna Huberman Country Meadows Justice Court justice of the peace

Now that we are in the midst of election season, we have been hearing about the importance of voting and how it is our civic duty. Another civic duty we hear less about but equally as important is jury duty. Jurors are an integral part of our judicial system. And the smooth administration of justice depends on people such as yourselves responding to juror summons and serving on juries. There are certainly other systems of justice, but in the United States, this is the one we have chosen. Every criminal defendant charged with a felony and some misdemeanors has an absolute right Anna to have a trial to a jury as well do Huberman civil litigants. If a party requests a jury trial and there are no jurors to hear it, justice could not be served. Without jurors, justice would come to a grinding halt. Most people are not overjoyed to receive a jury summons and probably don’t consider how meaningful that service is to the courts and to the community in general. But it has been my experience that when approached with an open mind, jury service is enjoyable and rewarding. Presented with the evidence and arguments, jurors decide the facts of a case. They listen to the witnesses, evaluate the testimony and make a decision. Who do I believe? Did the expert give me compelling reasons to accept the testimony? Was the theory of the case plausible? Jurors in justice courts are chosen from residents of the specific justice court precinct so you interact with people from your same community. Additionally, trials in justice court are usually resolved in one day, two at the most, so there is no fear of being selected for a trial that could last days or weeks. In trials, we ask jurors to keep an open mind and not make any decisions until they have heard all the evidence in the case. We live in busy times and everyone has things to do. But I ask you to keep an open mind and consider that you just might enjoy serving on a jury. And you will be fulfilling an important civic duty.

All they will have to do is look in the mirror. One of the most amusing moments after the primary was the news conference held by Governor Ducey saying that this shouldn’t have happened and he will look into it. Since he is owned, bought and paid for by ALEC and the Kochs, he doesn’t have to look too far. David Compton Litchfield Park

Politifact gives Trump, Cruz F’s Editor: It’s time for an update on the truthfulness of the candidates for President. There are a lot of fake quotes on the Internet, but here I strive to report only actual quotes reviewed by Politifact.com. Note: some quotes were “half-true.” The Donald scores 9% for mostly true, 77% for mostly false. Some examples: “I don’t know anything about David Duke.” (of the KKK) FALSE — he knew about him. “ Unemployment is really 30-32%, maybe as high as 42%.” FALSE — using the standard measurement, it’s about 5% “Iran will have nuclear military capability because of this deal.” FALSE — It is weakened and delayed

“Common Core is education run by Washington, D.C.” FALSE — states choose it and run it “Trump University has an ‘A’ rating from the BBB.” FALSE — it rates a ‘D’ “One of my TV ads shows Mexicans swarming our border.” FALSE — it is in Morocco Ted Cruz scores 22% mostly true, 66% mostly false. Some examples: “Obamacare is a job killer.” FALSE — million of jobs have been created since ACA passed “The U.S. said it would ensure Ukraine’s territorial integrity.” FALSE — no, we didn’t “The Democrats told the Catholic Church they need to change their beliefs.” FALSE — it never happened “The Iranian deal trusts the Iranians to inspect themselves.” FALSE — international inspections are required “President Obama can now bring Syrian refugees to the U.S. without real background checks.” FALSE — all refugees have rigorous screening “Trump, Clinton and Sanders want to put the government in charge of your health care.” FALSE — none of them do It is troubling that one of these mean-spirited liars will be the Republican nominee. On the Democrat’s side, Clinton and Sanders score 51% mostly true and 28% mostly false. Hopefully, most Americans will choose honesty and optimism, not deception and bluster. John Flynn Goodyear

Poll worker apologizes Editor: Having worked at the polls for various elections in the West Valley, I want to apologize for the obvious problems last Tuesday. It was a tough day, but exhilarating to see first-time voters with unbridled passion to cast their ballot. It was a thrill to be part of this vital process of democracy. Clearly, with only 60 locations in Maricopa County, there was a 70% reduction in polling sites. Moreover, the Arizona Republic purported that the DMV might not have transferred a voter’s party affiliation when updating his or her vehicle records, which exacerbated identification issues (AZ Republic, March 26, 1A). Many voters were “OTH” or “NONE” and not affiliated with the Democratic, Republican or Green Party, so they needed the provisional ballot forms, requiring time and patience. Also, voters who registered as Independents or who changed addresses needed provisional ballots. Lines got longer and tempers got shorter. For this, I am truly sorry. However, when voters are properly registered with the Maricopa County elections database and present valid drivers’ licenses with Voter ID cards, check-in times are swift. Voting is easy! Voting should be fun! Voting is every citizen’s right! Everybody counts! What did we learn from debacle? What can you do for future elections? First, check your voting status with Maricopa County election officials right away. Second, consider requesting a Permanent Early Ballot, which you can mail by the deadline or deposit in the Blue Ballot Box at your

polling site on voting day. Third, plan ahead. Voting is not rocket science. Voter registration closes on April 18th for the May 17th Statewide Elections. Take action today so that your vote will always count in all of tomorrow’s elections. Contact the Maricopa Country Recorder: http://recorder.maricopa. gov/elections/ or call 602.506.3535. Susan C.

The glorious honey flow Editor: A supernatural experience may be a rare occurrence or an event of such oneness that we simply don’t speak of it unless, of course, you’re nudged to do so by the very force that created it. The years come and go leaving behind a trail of memories and 1968 is ingrained and absolutely incomparable… I.E., birth of an adorable daughter, life threatening emergency surgery and a spiritual revelation. The early morning air was balmy across Tampa Bay as I began my short drive down Dale Mabry Avenue toward the nearby Macdill Air Force Base to begin another duty shift as an air policeman. Upon approaching the main gate, the guard gave a friendly wave as I drove slowly past. The next moment a stabbing pain in my abdominal area and instinctively I raced toward the emergency room as the pain became unbearable. I arrived in the E.R. parking lot where it was still dark outside and eerily quiet…. Life was ebbing from my body as I slowly crawled from the car onto the pavement losing

consciousness…. Blackness all around…. Nothingness! Fast forward…. Surgery for a perforated peptic ulcer narrowly escaping death. Weeks later cleared for military duty and resumed moonlighting as night janitor at a local theater. Late one night while vigorously mopping the theater’s restroom floor I found myself with intense pain and felt alone and frightened. Dropping to my knees I cried out “Jesus please help me.” Instantly a voice commanded “Stand-up” and I stood tall as my nostrils filled with the smell of golden sweet honey. The soothing sensuous sweetness oozed through my body head to toe and the pain…. Poof…. Gone! The moment left me feeling loved and cared for. A totally awesome experience. Darrel Browning Waddell

Welcome to the Business Briefcase, readers! We’re three-twelfths of the way through 2016, which, of course, reduces to onefourth. A quarter of the year done! Not that there’s some big prize at the end worth counting down for, it’s just a nice excuse to use a little math. I hope everyone made it through April Fools’ Day unscathed. I saw a few jokes played out on Facebook and Twitter, but was able to escape Shane McOwen anything directly. I saw a few April Fools’ jokes attempted before April 1. Members of the Golden State Warriors basketball team pulled a prank on teammate Festus Ezeli (awesome name) by creating fake radio stories that made it sound like Ezeli was cut. It’s a pretty standard joke, but happened March 31. Is this a thing now? Is no day safe anymore? I’m just going to have my guard up for the two weeks before and after April 1, just to be safe. Anyway, today’s Briefcase is quite Avondale heavy, and that’s no joke. That’s just how it goes sometimes — where the moving and shaking is happening, the Briefcase will follow. Let’s get to it. Avondale is getting a Carolina’s Mexican Food restaurant at the northeast corner of Dysart Road and Western Avenue, just south of the American Legion. Carolina’s has quite a bit of history in the Valley, first gracing us with its presence in 1968 in Phoenix, south of the downtown area. The restaurant has a ton of menu

options: tacos, burritos, enchiladas, chimichangas, tamales, the works. It also serves breakfast items and caters. My personal favorite menu item is the handmade flour tortillas. Trust me, they’re good. When has the Briefcase ever let you down? Initial plans for the building call for 11,000 square feet, with more than 2,000 square feet of covered patio seating. The Avondale location will be the fourth Carolina’s in the Valley, and construction is scheduled to be completed by this summer. Jack in the Box will be coming to Avondale at the southwest corner of McDowell Road and 103rd Avenue. That’s near the recently opened Main Event building. The fast-food chain restaurant is still in the review process with the city, so there isn’t a concrete completion estimate just yet. Copper State Rubber will be moving its operation to Avondale in the near future. The company is currently located in Phoenix on 51st Avenue, but will be moving west to the southeast corner of Roosevelt Street and 105th Avenue. Copper State Rubber is a manufacturer of industrial grade hoses used in the petroleum industry, and is moving to a larger facility to help meet demand. The move is expected to create more than 40 additional jobs. Construction is scheduled to begin in 2016. If you were looking for the latest news on the rest of the West Valley, do not fear. The Briefcase will get back to its regularly scheduled balanced diet next week. As always, send tips, questions or comments to smcowen@westvalleyview. com. Have a great week everyone!

Gov. Ducey nominates Buckeye fire, police chiefs to serve on state councils View report

Buckeye’s police and fire chiefs were both nominated this month to serve on state boards by Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey. Fire Chief Bob Costello was Bob Costello named to the Arizona State Emergency Medical Services Council. The council’s role is to adopt and review standards for statewide training and certification for all classifications of EMTs, medical training programs and emergency receiving facilities, including advanced life support hospitals. Costello has been with the Buckeye Fire Department since 2004, and has been chief since 2008. He was inducted into the Arizona Fire Service Hall of Fame in 2012. For 30 years, Costello has traveled to rural locations throughout the state to provide training to members of volunteer fire departments who otherwise would not have received the training. He has been a certified trainer at six Arizona community colleges for more than 20 years and developed programs that have gained regional and national recognition. In the past few years, he’s developed the Community Paramedicine Program, which is designed to help discharged patients stay on the road to good health and reduce hospital readmission rates

by having Buckeye firefighters make home visits. Since May 2015, the program has reduced Buckeye patient readmission at Banner Estrella Larry Hall Medical Center, with only about 4 percent of the patients returning to the hospital. Buckeye Police Chief Larry Hall was appointed to the Arizona Peace Officer Standards and Training Board. The board establishes and maintains standards of integrity, competence and professionalism for approximately 163 Arizona law enforcement agencies encompassing 14,500 sworn peace officers, 6,500 correctional officers and 13 police training academies. Hall has been with Buckeye since 2006 and has served as the city’s police chief for the past two years. He is a 25-year veteran of law enforcement. He started his career in 1990 with the New York City Police Department and moved to Arizona in 1995, joining the ranks of the Mesa Police Department. In Buckeye, Hall is overseeing the police department’s accreditation process through the national Commission on Accreditation of Law Enforcement Agencies. He anticipates that by this fall, Buckeye will be one of the few agencies in Arizona to receive the prestigious accreditation.

Officials investigating 3 fires in Avondale by Emily Toepfer assistant editor

Avondale officials are investigating after three fires broke out at unoccupied buildings within less than eight hours. Firefighters responded to the first fire at about 7:20 p.m. March 28 at a mobile home near Fifth Street and Western Avenue, said Division Chief Ben Avitia, a spokesman for Avondale Fire-Rescue. The mobile home was fully engulfed in flames and was a total loss, Avitia said. “The fire was defensive, so basically they used an exterior attack in protecting the other trailers and structures around,” he said. The owner was on scene, although the mobile home appeared to be unoccupied, Avitia said. Firefighters were called back to the same trailer park at

Buckeye police searching for missing person

11:55 p.m. that night for another reported working fire, he said. Flames spread rapidly through the vacant trailer, but were contained to the structure, Avitia said. A third fire was reported at 3:30 a.m. March 29 at a boarded up house near First Street and Mountain View Drive, about a mile south of the other fires, Avitia said. Neighbors called in the fire, which had visible flames and spread to the attic of the vacant structure, he said. Firefighters attacked the fire from the outside, extinguishing it fairly quickly, Avitia said. No injuries were reported in any of the fires, he said. All three fires are being investigated, including interviewing witnesses and testing samples, Avitia said. “Nothing has been ruled out,” he said. “On Mountain View, that is also being investigated for possible arson activity.”

Goodyear family escapes early morning fire by Emily Toepfer assistant editor

A Goodyear family escaped an early morning fire March 27 that started in the garage of a two-story house in the Estrella community, officials said. Firefighters responded at about 2 a.m. to the house fire in the 18500 block of West San Carlos Drive, said Battalion Chief Russ Braden, a spokesman with the Goodyear Fire Department. The flames in the garage were put out quickly, but the fire spread to other areas of the house because of the intense heat, Braden said. The home sustained very heavy damage and is possibly

a total loss, he said. A family of three, including a mother, father and child, was at home and awake when the parents heard the garage door going up and down and went to investigate, Braden said. When they opened the door from the house to the garage, they discovered the fire and were able to evacuate, he said. The fire is under investigation, and no cause has been determined yet, Braden said. Forty-four firefighters from Goodyear, Avondale, Buckeye and Buckeye Valley responded to the fire, he said. No injuries were reported. A fundraiser has been set up to assist the family at gofundme.com/88w5g4xg.

Water line break shuts down 99th Ave. at Interstate 10 in Tolleson Roadway closed for 4 days by Emily Toepfer assistant editor

A portion of a major thoroughfare in Tolleson was closed four days last week after a water line broke in the middle of the night. Tolleson officials originally expected northbound 99th Avenue at Interstate 10 to be closed just a couple of days, but work took longer than planned, Utilities Director Mark Berrelez said. The break to a 12-inch water line was reported at about

midnight March 30 and shut down northbound 99th Avenue under the freeway until 7 p.m. April 2. A small section of the pipe was nicked while Roadway Electric, a traffic signal contractor, was performing underground boring work in the area, and the flooding caused damage to the pavement, Berrelez said. “Because of the extensive amount of water flooding the roadway, it just kind of lifted it up,” he said. Felix Construction performed the emergency repairs on the water line and road, Berrelez said, adding that it’s too early to determine the cost for the city. Northbound traffic was still able to access I-10 going

east during the repairs, but the on-ramp was blocked for traffic driving southbound on 99th. Traffic counts taken in 2008 showed an average of 30,000 cars a day traveled on 99th Avenue between I-10 and Van Buren Street, according to the Arizona Department of Transportation. That number was projected to increase to 50,900 vehicles a day by 2026. Emily Toepfer can be reached at etoepfer@westvalleyview.com or on Twitter @EmilyToepfer.

When Cory Beal returned as theater director this year at Desert Edge High School in Goodyear and learned they’d be performing West Side Story in the spring, he decided to put his own spin on the classic musical. The original characters and songs are still in place, but that’s about it, he said. “Anybody who is familiar with the traditional West Side Story, we’re hoping, is going to be open to hearing our version of it in a completely different light,” Beal said. “They’ll have to come to see what that is exactly, but I guarantee they will have a blast.” The show will be at 7 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday, with a matinee performance at WHAT: Desert Edge High School 2 p.m. Saturday in the production, West Desert Edge auditorium, Side Story. 15778 W.

La Paz, 17, has been in theater since her freshman year and plays the lead role of Maria. “I feel like Maria is just ready to go on an adventure; she’s still young, but she wants to go and have fun and experience new things,” Melina said. “Even though she kind of falls back from that, she still has that longing and it’s what drives her.” About 54 students are involved in the show, which also features a live orchestra pit — a first for the Goodyear campus. The orchestra is made up of students, Desert Edge teachers, an Avondale Elementary School District teacher, professional musicians and one parent, who are all performing on their own time, said Amy Nooden, the vocal director, pit director and pianist for the musical. “A live performance should be that — live. Would you pay money to see a baseball game with a pitching machine?” Nooden said. “Watching a musical with recorded music, to me is like watching Karaoke. I know that sounds harsh, because that seems to be the norm at high schools in the area, but it is not the norm elsewhere.” Having live music also helps cut down on costs, since renting the recording would be an additional $1,200 above the rights of the musical, which is already pricey, she said. Nooden is hoping to collect donations at the door so she can give the musicians a little money for their time,

Live music also creates excitement, which directly affects the performers on the stage, Nooden said. “The actors stay on top of their game, because they are required to listen and pay attention to details,” she said. “There is a relationship between the musicians and the singers, which creates an energetic atmosphere that is expected from a live performance.” That energy is the reason Kai Marayag, 16, loves performing in musicals. The junior, who has been acting since fourth grade, plays Tony. “I like that he’s very independent and has his mind set,” Kai said about his character. “He doesn’t let too many things faze him, and he’s very straight forward and has goals and standards for himself, which is something I can admire.” Another main character, Riff, is played by senior Dante Wright, 18, who has only been acting for a year after switching from sports to theater. “I really enjoy putting on a show and having people give a response to that,” Wright said. “I love the fact that

I can portray a character with leadership, but flaws. It’s a very complex character — there’s a whole deep story to him.” Emily Toepfer can be reached at etoepfer@westvalleyview.com or on Twitter @EmilyToepfer.

Jumping over the West Valley Former Avondale man among Army Parachute Team at air show by Glenn Gullickson staff writer

Jumping out of airplanes is nothing new for a member of the U.S. Army’s parachute team, but doing it during last weekend’s air show at Luke Air Force Base had a serviceman with West Valley ties walking on air. Staff Sgt. Kenneth Severin Jr., a member of the Golden Knights, had a special role in the demonstration team’s shows, one of the highlights at the air show that commemorated Luke’s 75th year of operation in Glendale. Severin’s connection to the state gave him the assignment of unfurling the Arizona flag that was packed with his parachute for the morning shows that kicked off the event’s aerial demonstrations. Kenneth Severin, 33, who was born in Severin Jr. Yuma and lived in Avondale as a teenager, joined the Army in 2001. Since he started skydiving as a hobby, he said he’s made 1,500 jumps. After a deployment in Afghanistan in 2005 and two tours of duty in Iraq from 2007 to 2009 and 2010 to 2011, Severin applied for the Golden Knights’ two-month selection program four years ago. “Every day is a learning experience,” Severin said. The Golden Knights perform almost every weekend during the air show season, which started with the Luke show and lasts until November, and takes the group

around the country and overseas. “Every time we jump, we jump in a new area,” Severin said. But Severin, who is stationed at Fort Bragg, N.C., said the Army requires team members to keep their feet on the ground by maintaining readiness as a “solider first,” which means he trains annually as a medic. The Golden Knights prepared for hours before last weekend’s jumps, and hosted members of the news media during their flights, including a reporter and photographer from the West Valley View. On the ground, team members walked through the routine that they would do in the sky before suiting up and boarding a Fokker C31A Friendship. Pre-jump rituals included a group huddle and a shout when it was wheels up as the plane took off. Soon the West Valley landscape became a patchwork of subdivisions and green and brown fields with mountains as a backdrop. Team members crouched on the floor next to doors on both sides of the plane that remained open throughout the flight as they tested the winds, then gathered to determine where they would be dropped. After flying about 30 minutes and reaching an altitude of 12,500 feet, where the air was thinner and colder (down to 17 degrees), a team member stood by the door, fell away and was gone. The team’s narrator carrying the U.S. flag landed first to provide commentary for those attending the show. About five minutes later, 10 other team members — including one woman — dropped from the plane within seconds. One carried video equipment in his headgear. In less than four minutes, they deployed their gold and

Last year, one of the Golden Knights died after an accident during a performance at the Chicago Air and Water Show. After the plane landed safely at Luke, the team was transported back by van to repack their parachutes for an afternoon show when team members would form a geometric shape in the sky. Severin said his favorite part of the job comes when the team hits the ground after the afternoon show. “The best part of it is being able to connect with the public, to see their faces,” he said. Severin said team members go to Army recruiting centers during shows to talk to youths, who are invited to help repack the parachutes. It’s part of the team’s mission to share the military’s heritage and inspire the next generation, said Severin, the third generation of his family to serve in the armed forces. The Luke show had special meaning for Severin because for the first time, his father, Kenneth Severin Sr., of Avondale, who served in the Army for 22 years, saw his son perform as a Golden Knight. Severin said he plans to stay with the team for another five years, then hopes to put his skills to work as a smoke jumper in Montana. The two-day air show attracted a record 425,000 people to the base for aerial demonstrations, including the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds and F-35 Heritage Flight Team, and static displays of aircraft ranging from vintage war planes to a C-17 Globemaster II cargo plane.

Fill the tank Making sense of the Suns’ lost season by Shane McOwen sports writer

Somewhere along the way, the Phoenix Suns’ season derailed off the track, soared off a bridge, caromed off the ground in a fiery explosion and then was buried in a rockslide. And that’s putting it nicely. After a while, it seemed the Suns were repeating that process over and over again, but each time on purpose. The Suns entered the hallowed halls of tanking in the National Basketball Association, and it’s exactly what they should have done. Tanking is almost a curse word in professional sports. It’s losing on purpose in a world where competitive fire is king. The way the chips are stacked, however, it’s the most logical step to take to acquire talent that will turn the team’s fortunes around. What’s the difference between the Suns finishing 32-50 or 20-62? Seven or eight draft Shane McOwen slots, and that’s basically it. Neither record will get the team to the postseason. As Suns fans have seen in the last six years, barely missing the playoffs results in a pick in the teens in the following draft. Those guys rarely are the significant difference makers teams need to make the jump to the next level. After a win against the New Orleans Pelicans on Dec. 18, the Suns’ record was 12-16. The team lost the next nine games, all part of a stretch of 15 losses in 16 games. The tank job was officially on. Players missed more and more time due to injury, both legitimate and fishy. Assistant coaches were fired, and then the head coach was let go. Jeff Hornacek’s replacement, Earl Watson, was in the midst of his first season as an NBA assistant before he was named as the interim coach for the Suns. Tanking can be a sore subject for many fans, but there’s an art to accepting the process on a temporary basis. The key to getting through a tanking season is to tune in with a purpose. Watching loss after loss can weigh on the soul, but tuning into games to watch the Suns’ young players develop can be a rewarding experience. If Devin Booker becomes an all-star down the road, isn’t it more satisfying to know you watched the player grow from being a wide-eyed rookie to a dominating force on the court? Watching a player take on the growing pains and bust through the proverbial ceiling is as rewarding an experience a fan can have with his team. When tanking, the current season almost becomes background noise. If watching players develop is not your cup of tea, maybe keeping an eye on the incoming talent is. Draft scouting is always a fun what-if exercise to partake in (heck, what-if scenarios are almost as fun as the real thing). Checking in on the incoming rookies is a sure way to fuel the fire of fandom, and it’s a great antidote to losing hope, or your mind for that matter. For as much heat as Suns owner Robert Sarver takes, he does seem to be a competitive guy. He wants to win. He says it just about every opportunity he gets. That bodes well for the Suns’ future, making it unlikely the team will venture into Philadelphia 76ers territory. The Sixers are in year three of less than 20 wins, which makes for a brutal existence as a fan. The philosophy makes sense on paper. The majority of difference-makers in the league come from the top selections in the draft. What a better way to build a team than to get a few of those guys in consecutive years and move forward from there? Unfortunately, this is the real world, and the fans pay to see the product through ticket sales and cable bills. Sports attention spans are short, and too many losing seasons in a row can irrevocably damage the team’s brand. I’m all for tanking when the stars align, but three and four years of terrible basketball are just too much. There are better things to do with your money and time. As the saying goes, it’s always darkest before the dawn, and I don’t think it can get any worse for the Suns moving forward. Hopefully, dawn breaks on May 17, the night of the NBA Lottery Drawing.

Hawks soar past Glendale Prep Academy Buckeye extends winning streak behind strong pitching, timely hitting by Rafael Alvarez special to the View

Five innings was all Buckeye needed to defeat Glendale Prep Academy April 1, as the Hawks took care of the Griffins by a score of 10-0, improving their overall record to 11-2 and extending their winning streak to BASEBALL 10 games. The Griffins dropped to 8-9 overall. Behind a strong shutout start from Hawks pitcher Jacob Colville, 10 runs proved to be more than enough. Colville, a senior, was wheeling and dealing through each inning, only giving up one hit to go along with 11 strikeouts. Going into the game, Colville said he knew what he needed to do to be successful. “I just sat down and visualized what I needed to do going into it,” Colville said. “I made sure that I went through every at bat on the mound before it happened, in the dugout and the inning before.” Colville’s teammates, in particular Buckeye shortstop Andrew Roque, as well as Hawks’ coach Danny Rodriguez, had nothing but good things to say about the pitcher after the win. “He came out and was dealing; he knew what he had to do on the mound and showed it,” Roque said. “I thought Jacob Colville, our pitcher for today, did pretty well,” Rodriguez said. “I thought tonight he threw really well, he commanded his fastball and spotted it well, so I was really happy with him tonight.” The Hawks’ offense didn’t waste any time, as they scored in all five innings. They got started in the bottom of the first off an RBI single from third baseman J.C. Perez, which was then followed up by an RBI from second baseman Randen Garrison off a fielder’s choice, giving the Hawks a 2-0 lead after one inning. Buckeye continued to tack on more

The Hawks managed to bring four runners across home plate, with the first run coming off a wild pitch by Griffins pitcher Seth Wilde. That was followed up with a tworun double from outfielder Rocky Botello, which brought home first baseman Alex Fernandez and outfielder Clayton Turner. Garrison capped off the inning with an RBI double to extend the Hawks’ lead to

6-0. The Hawks would go into the bottom of the fifth inning up 8-0, and knew a mercyrule win was within reach. It didn’t take long, as Buckeye scored the final two runs off a single from Turner to secure the win. Coach Rodriguez said he has been pleased thus far with the way his team has been playing all season. “We’ve been playing pretty well all year, and we’ve beaten some teams pretty

handily, so we’re just trying to keep our guys in the game,” Rodriguez said. “I tell them every day, we’ve got to come out and play like we’re playing the No. 1 team in the state.” Rodriguez attributes the Hawks’ great play to teamwork and constantly working hard. “Every day, we tell our kids, ‘We have to work hard every day, we have to compete every day and nothing’s a given,’” Rodriguez said. “I tell the kids all the time that baseball’s not a given, and to not take anything for granted, and that’s what we’ll continue to tell our kids every day.” “I felt like it was a team win, everybody did their part,” Garrison added. “Jacob came out and threw strikes like he normally does, and it was just a team win, overall. We’ve been practicing and picking up each other and just working together as a team, and that’s what we did today.” Roque echoed his teammates’ and coach’s sentiments. “I feel like we’ve been putting a lot of hard work in and it’s been paying off lately, and we just need to stick with what we’re doing,” Roque said. With this win in the bag, Buckeye has a huge game coming up against Glendale Joy Christian, which has only lost one game all season, but the Hawks feel like their preparation has them ready for the matchup. “We’ve responded pretty well the last couple weeks, and we got a really tough game on Tuesday against Joy Christian,” Rodriguez said. “We have to go over there to play them, so it’s going to be a very good game, they’re a very good team. We’re looking forward to it.” “We’re going to work hard because they’re a big challenge, they’re on a run right now and we know that they have a lot,” Garrison said. “We know what they have, so we’re just going to prepare hard at practice for the next couple days and see what we can do.” “We played them over the fall, so we already know what they have,” Roque said. “It’s going to be a tough one, but we just have to see how we perform and practice, and get mentally ready.” The result of Tuesday’s game was unavailable at press time.

Lady Knights softball eyes playoff spot Westview holds 11-8 record with four weeks to play by Shane McOwen sports writer

Westview softball is entering the final month of the season with a goal of a playoff berth on the horizon. The Lady Knights sit at 11-8, and have played well for much of the year, but still have to climb out of the tendency to give games away with self-inflicted errors, Westview coach Larry Wonner said. “We’ve given away at least three games,” Wonner said. “There have been a SOFTBALL couple of games where in the last innings, last two innings, somebody makes an error and everyone puts their head down. It’s hard, because we’ve played well against some really good teams. We play well for most of the game, it’s just a couple of plays [that cost us the win].” The Lady Knights also had to deal with the challenge of multiple off days in a row. Westview had 11 days between games against Tempe McClintock and Verrado. Westview went 1-2 in the week following the bare spring break, losing to Verrado 5-1, then beating Glendale Raymond S. Kellis 4-1, before dropping the week’s finale against Surprise Shadow Ridge on April 1, 8-1. “We had a late spring break, [and] that hurt us against Verrado,” Wonner said. “We were coming off spring break and they’d played the week before. We came out really flat in that game.” The Lady Knights held tough in the game against Shadow Ridge, but a late rally sealed the win for the Lady Stallions. Westview’s defense ended up conceding a few extra runs in the top of the seventh. “It’s like I told them, there’s no shame in losing to this team because they’re a good team,” Wonner said. “It’s how we lost to them. It’s frustrating. It’s frustrating for them, it’s frustrating for the seniors. Again, we have to make those plays.” Amid the team’s youthful growing pains is a bright future. Sophomore Alexandra McCutcheon leads the team with an impressive .520 batting average and teamleading seven doubles. Freshman Stevie Keahey has a .385 average in limited at bats. McCutcheon has also pitched well for the Lady

McCutcheon has surrendered 38 runs, but only 13 have been earned. Senior Jasmine Brown is hitting .396 with a team high 20 RBIs and five home runs.

Agua Fria volleyball star to play at Simmons College

by Shane McOwen Morgan Weeg helped lead Agua Fria to one of its better volleyball seasons in school history this year, as the Lady Owls went 20-8, bowing out of the second round of the Division III state tournament as the No. 5 seed. Weeg’s career will continue on, as she’s signed on to play at Simmons College in Boston. “I just felt after visiting there, being there, that Simmons was the right choice,” Weeg said. “They had all my checklist of yeses, and I didn’t see any red flags saying not to go there. In the end, I felt like it was the right choice.” Simmons College competes in NCAA Division III and the Great Northeast Athletic Conference, and is led by head coach Scott Grandpre. Weeg was already in touch with the school when Grandpre took over, just before she started her senior year at Agua Fria. “When I found out there was a new coach, I talked to him for a while,” Weeg said. “I really liked his philosophies, the way he looked at the program, his views of the future, everything. I definitely knew this was going to be an opportunity to take very seriously.” Weeg visited the school in September 2015 and fell in love with the place, she said. “While I was there, I got to stay with the volleyball girls. We met the professors and got to be on campus

and do the whole thing,” Weeg said. “I got to fall in love with the campus, and I fell in love with the girls.” Simmons College also has an academic program that fit in with Weeg’s future career plans as a pediatric physical therapist. “The academics there are extremely impressive,” Weeg said. “I felt like it had the best opportunity for the future.” Weeg said Simmons offers an accelerated exercise science program that takes a year off the process of earning an undergraduate and graduate degree. The school is also well connected with local hospitals, helping students get real-life experience, Weeg said. Weeg was considering schools in Illinois, Kentucky and Ohio, but ultimately decided Simmons’ draw was too great to pass up. “[Boston] is a beautiful city,” Weeg said. “I think one of the things Simmons does really well is when you’re on campus, you don’t feel like you’re overwhelmed with city life. It’s comfortable, kind of a small-town feel because it’s a smaller school. “When you walk outside the gate, you’re in downtown Boston, so you’re within walking distance of everything. Fenway Park is a five-minute walk away, you have the train, everything is close.” Weeg won’t be the only Simmons player with Arizona ties. Former Millennium graduate Andalyn Duke will be entering her senior year at Simmons this fall. Shane McOwen can be reached at smcowen@westvalleyview.com or on Twitter @ShaneMcOwen.

Individual experiences and results may vary

by Casey Pritchard sports editor

It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the greatest of races, but I was glad to see IndyCar back April 2 at Phoenix International Raceway in Avondale. Scott Dixon was victorious in the Desert Diamond West Valley Grand Prix, finishing the 250-lap race with an average speed of 139.822 mph. The layoff was long, 11 years since Indy ran at PIR, but the sight, sound and even smell â&#x20AC;&#x201D; I love the smell of burning methanol fuel â&#x20AC;&#x201D; of IndyCar brought me back to my childhood. I used to love watching IndyCar. Casey Pritchard Memorial weekend Sunday was like Christmas at my house when the cars fired up their engines for â&#x20AC;&#x153;The greatest spectacle in racing,â&#x20AC;? the Indianapolis 500. Rick Mears, Al Unser Jr. and Michael Andretti were among my favorites. Unfortunately, IndyCar got split up in 1996 when the IRL (Indy Racing League) was formed, making two competitive leagues in open wheel racing. For me, it totally killed the sport. I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been a fan since. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why I was kind of excited Saturday, because it brought me back to my childhood a little bit. I might have been even more excited had it been a better race, but it was the first time at PIR in so long that you couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect perfection. In fact, the race had everything but that. The first two leaders â&#x20AC;&#x201D; polesitter Helio Castroneves and Juan Pablo Montoya â&#x20AC;&#x201D; each experienced cut tires, forcing them to pit and putting each a lap down. They were never able to recover and challenge the front of the field again, finishing 11th and ninth, respectively. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was taking it easy, taking care of the tires because we knew we had some vibration,â&#x20AC;? Castroneves said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was having such an incredible run, and all of a sudden, we hit Turns 3 and 4 and something was wrong.â&#x20AC;? There also wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t much passing. Even the leaders couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get past cars at the back of the field to put them a lap down. By Lap 15, Castroneves had caught up to the 22nd-place driver, who

was last in the field. That car stayed on the lead lap all the way through the first caution on Lap 50 because nobody could get around him. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once you got in the back, there was not much movement or passing, the groove on the outside was very difficult to pass,â&#x20AC;? Castroneves said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s frustrating because we had a great opportunity here, but at the end of the day, you have to move on.â&#x20AC;? Will Power, who finished third, said he had to be â&#x20AC;&#x153;very niceâ&#x20AC;? on his tires because he knew people couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pass. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was aware the more you punish it, the more chance youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to have of a big vibration,â&#x20AC;? Power said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the tires that were a problem, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the amount of downforce we have here is too much, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why tires had vibrations.â&#x20AC;? The most exciting part of the race was the last 30 laps or so. Tony Kanaan, who was in the top three most of the race, slipped to seventh after a pit stop. In the final green run, he picked off three cars, moving his way to fourth. When he got there, his gap to Power in third was more than four seconds, and he closed it quickly. However, once Kanaan caught Power, he couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get around him. It was like everyone was stuck in a perpetual merry-go-round. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You could run flat out, you could pass cars if you needed to, but you didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to be doing it all the time because it definitely took a toll on the tires,â&#x20AC;? Dixon said. Ironically, Simon Pagenaud, who finished second, said he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even trying to pass Dixon at the end of the race. You know passing is difficult when a guy concedes trying to win. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was really content with second,â&#x20AC;? Pagenaud said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had the pace, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so difficult to pass that there was no interest for me to take that risk to try. I mean, I was trying, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get me wrong, but there is only so much you can do at that time of the race.â&#x20AC;? Dixon, who led the final 155 laps â&#x20AC;&#x201D; because nobody could pass â&#x20AC;&#x201D; admitted the race wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t perfect, but said thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be the case when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re competing somewhere you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been in 11 years. However, he was happy to be back and is already looking forward to next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s race, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a tough fight out there tonight, probably one of the toughest short ovals I can think of in recent history because of how you had to manage the tires, fuel mileage, strategy,â&#x20AC;? Dixon said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybody did a great job for the first time back after being away for 11 years. The track has changed a lot. I think we learned a lot tonight, everybody did, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m excited to come back next year.â&#x20AC;?

Undefeated (From Page 14) Fabits used to play baseball, while No. 5 Danny Vinas also competes in track. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Baseball players have natural handeye coordination,â&#x20AC;? Ward said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re competitive, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re quick.â&#x20AC;? Ward said the Nos. 3-6 players have really helped the other two become more competitive. Another thing thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s helped the Vipers this year is the addition of a tennis class at school, Ward said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our last block of the day is an athletic class,â&#x20AC;? Ward said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Baseball kids go to baseball, softball go to softball, tennis go to tennis, and that probably has helped more than anything, because my six varsity tennis players are all in that class. We get focused practice for an hour or hour and a half, depending on the day, and I think that has helped tremendously.â&#x20AC;?

Long break Until Tuesday, Verrado hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t played a match since March 23, putting 12 days in between matches. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This week, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had all week off, so how will they respond? I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know,â&#x20AC;? Ward said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At this time of year, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to keep kids motivated when they have a week off.â&#x20AC;? In an attempt to keep them motivated, Ward had them work on their doubles game, as well as play a lot of matches against each other. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our kids donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work a lot of skill work, they more so just play the game,â&#x20AC;? Ward

said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They hit the ball back and forth and we play contests, try to understand where to hit the ball, but youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re competing against somebody almost every time. I think with these kids, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the best thing to do.â&#x20AC;? After Woodhead and Bloomstadt, Yohn and Vinas play No. 2 doubles, while Mesa and Fabits play No. 3. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cole and Danny, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re like best friends and play well together, and then Griffin and Nick, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re like best friends,â&#x20AC;? Ward said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When they play doubles, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of fun to watch because they get along so well, and being friends, they have that really good chemistry. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what you need in doubles.â&#x20AC;? Verradoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next match is at 3:30 p.m. Thursday at home against La Joya. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Each time we play somebody, the pressure mounts,â&#x20AC;? Ward said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even though it might be someone you know you should beat, these kids have not been there before so they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to fail and they put a little more pressure on themselves. My goal is to make sure they play relaxed.â&#x20AC;? Regardless of how things finish for Verrado, Ward has enjoyed watching his athletes compete, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a lot of fun watching these kids compete, and the six of them do a lot of things together off the court; theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve bonded really well as a team,â&#x20AC;? Ward said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We might be less talented than we were last year, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re becoming more talented because the kids know how to compete. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s huge.â&#x20AC;? Casey Pritchard can be reached at caseypritchard@westvalleyview.com or on Twitter @CaseyonSports.

bottom of the third with a double to deep center, and Godfrey followed with a tworun home run to right, making it 4-3. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tyler, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been waiting for that to come, and Tyler has been blistering the ball for about a week and a half, so that was awesome,â&#x20AC;? McCubbins said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The best part of that, too, is we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sit back, we continued, tied it up and then kept battling.â&#x20AC;? The tying run came on a Rex Greabell single, which scored Williamson. The home run for Godfrey was his first, and came on a change up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He threw a couple breaking balls and coach was saying I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be getting any fastballs,â&#x20AC;?

He’s currently tied for fourth in Division II, two feet behind the state leader. “We expect big things from him,” Riley said. “He should contend for a state title himself.” Riley said a couple of newcomers to the team have stepped up for the Wolverines. Junior Dallas Dixon has by Shane McOwen performed well in the high jump, relays and long sprints, sports writer Riley said. Tolleson track had some big shoes to fill coming into “He’s been a real good addition to our team,” Riley the 2016 season. said. The Wolverines, who captured the boys team title in Riley praised the performance of the team’s throwers, 2015, are working on continuing the successful tradition specifically in the shot put.

Medrano has 30 meet against Surprise Shadow Ridge and Phoenix cleared 13 feet in the pole vault, already matching last Camelback, and took first in both the 100m and 300m. “For I know the plans I have for you” declared the , Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, Plans to give you Hope and a Future .

“There’s a lot of potential there,” Riley said. “She’s super talented.” Hancock has excelled in the distance events this season, Riley said. “She wasn’t quite a state qualifier last year, but had an excellent cross country season [in the fall]. She finished fourth in the state finals in Division II in cross country.” Hancock’s best times are 2:32.7 in the 800m and 5:27.04 in the 1600m. “Between the two of them, they rack up a lot of points,” Riley said. Sophomore Briana Castro, hurdles, and senior Tene Lowman, shot put, have also performed well, Riley said. Riley said the biggest factor in the team’s success moving forward is showing up to put the work in. “We just have to make sure we have a full team out at practice every day,” Riley said. “It’s difficult sometimes, but we do have a lot of kids that come out and work real hard. We just want to build on what we’ve done in the last couple of years.” Riley said the team’s strength is pushing each other through competition at practice. “It seems to me, to get the best work out of this group, is to have them compete,” Riley said. “The competition really makes everyone better and kind of leads to a real positive feeling, positive spirit for the team. The days we don’t structure like that are the days that drag, seem a little more boring. They just really thrive on competition.” The Wolverines’ next opportunity to flex their competitive muscles will be today against Shadow Ridge and Glendale Copper Canyon at Copper Canyon High School. Tolleson will also compete in the 37th annual Sun Angel Track Classic Thursday in Tempe.

FAIR HOUSING – IT’S NOT AN OPTION, IT’S THE LAW. You CAN Choose Where YOU Want to Live. Freedom from discrimination in choosing your home is a right…Not a privilege. Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968 (Fair Housing Act), as amended, prohibits discrimination in the sale, rental, and ﬁnancing of dwellings, and in other housing-related transactions, based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, handicap (disability) and familial status (including children under the age of 18 living with parents or legal custodians, pregnant women, and people securing custody of children under the age of 18). The Maricopa County Human Services Department (MCHSD), through their Fair Housing Program, and in association with the Arizona Fair Housing Partnership (www.arizonafairhousing.org) are here to preserve that right for every individual. MCHSD helps prevent or eliminate discrimination by providing education, outreach and referral services to the residents of Urban Maricopa County, including the unincorporated areas of Maricopa County, as well as the incorporated cities and towns of Buckeye, El Mirage, Gila Bend,

Goodyear, Guadalupe, Queen Creek, Litchfield Park, Tolleson, Wickenburg, and Youngtown. If you would like more information regarding fair housing, please call or visit our websites. If you feel that your housing rights have been violated, you can file a fair housing complaint by calling: 1-800-669-9777 (TEL) 1-800-927-9275 (TTY); or you can complete an online form at: www.hud.gov/fairhousing or by calling the Arizona Attorney General’s Office at: 1-877-491-5742 (TEL) or 1-877-624-8090 (TTY) or you can complete an online form at: https://www.azag.gov/fair-housing
