Campus High starts year with new principal By Sam Jack
Haysville Sun-Times sjack@tsnews.com
Campus High School starts its 2018-2019 school year with a new principal, David Morford. Before coming to Campus, Morford served as principal at Ottawa High School, Olathe North High School, De Soto
High School and Winfield High School. Olathe North had a student population of about 2,300, so Morford is familiar with the dynamics in large high schools like Campus. “Any school, but it’s certainly multiplied with a large school, there’s lots of moving parts and lots of things that go on daily,” he said. “You have to
have great people around you, which we do here.” Morford’s contract started at the end of July, but he spent time earlier in the summer getting to know teachers and staff. “Mr. (Myron) Regier, the former principal, and I actually went to college together and have been good friends for over 40 years, so I am well
aware of what he’s done here at Campus, the leadership style, and the good things that were already in place,” he said. “When I was at Winfield, I even coached against Campus in the gymnasium and on the field here.” Morford was born in Newton, where his father was sher-
David Morford is the new principal at Campus High School.

The public is invited to participate in a community work day at Nelson Elementary on Labor Day.
The Campus High School Student Council is coordinating a day of work on the Owl’s Nest outdoor classroom and nature area at Nelson Elementary School. Nelson first-grade teacher Kim
Hall started work on the Owl’s Nest before she fell ill with cancer. In the weeks before her death in May, friends and former students donated
The Haysville City Council got its first look at a possible city employee exit interview process at its Aug. 27 meeting. Council members had requested discussion of such a policy at their last meeting after a citizen raised concerns about turnover among police officers and the lack of exit interviews in that department. Background information indicated the council had approved a motion in January 2005 to eliminate exit interviews from the personnel manual. The proposed procedure would call for the assistant city clerk to conduct all exit interviews by reading a set of questions to the employee and writing down the employee’s answers. The employee would review the answers, then sign and date the form. The interview form would be emailed to the employee’s department head and the chief administrative officer after the employee had terminated employment. Reaction to the proposal was mixed. Council member Bob Rardin said he did not see any benefit to an exit interview. He said 90 percent of employees won’t give the real reason they are leaving. He called such a process a “waste of resources.” Council member Steve Crum said such interviews would help the city stay on top of salary trends. “I want us to make sure we keep

New exhibits to open at WSU art museum
The following exhibits will open Friday, Sept. 7, at Wichita State University’s Ulrich Museum of Art. Galleries are open Tuesday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. and weekends from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. • “BurntGeneration: Contemporary Iranian Photography” Burnt Generation, an exhibition of contemporary Iranian photography, surveys the profound impact of decades of political unrest and social upheaval on the people of Iran. The name Burnt Generation has been applied to Iranians born between 1963 and 1980. Their generation was overwhelmingly marked by the Iranian Revolution of 1979 which brought down the ruling monarchy with major social, political and
economic consequences, as well as the 1980-1988 IranIraq War in which many of them served. • Sara Angelucci, “The Anonymous Chorus” Toronto-based artist Sara Angelucci uses photography, video, audio and performance to explore themes of memory, conventions of image making and “the cultural role vernacular images play in framing particular stories, histories, and memorialization.” • Frederick Judd Waugh, “Waterscapes” Selected from the Ulrich’s extensive holdings of works by the artist Frederick Judd Waugh, Waterscapes illustrates the breadth of approaches that he took in his studies of the major focus of his art. As a developing artist, Waugh explored a range
of compositions from pastoral scenes to cityscapes, but his primary subject remained the sea. Waugh is generally considered one of America’s great marine painters. The works in this exhibition demonstrate his deft handling of light, tone and texture, and his ability to convey the sublime force of nature at moments of turbulence and repose. • “Neighborhood: PALIMPSEST/ Barrio: PALIMPSESTO” This exhibit is an off-site iteration of Horizontes, the “artist-driven, community engagement art project that aims to connect two underrepresented neighborhoods in north Wichita.” Co-organized with Armando Minjarez, the exhibition features the work of Wichita-based artists Alexis Riv-
ierre, Bernardo Trevizo Jr., and Janice Thacker, together with New Orleans-based artist Ana Hernandez. Collectively the artists will reference the multilayered histories of these areas, illustrating ways in which we mark and experience residential communities. They are utilizing a variety of media that combine mapping, personal narrative, architecture and portraiture, to identify how the practices of redlining, urban planning and gentrification have targeted racialized neighborhoods in Wichita and beyond. At the same time, the exhibition reveals and is a tribute to the resilience of character that exists in these spaces in the face of ongoing systemic discrimination and attempts of erasure.

Woman accused of unlawful sex with at-risk teen
An employee of a Goddard-area home for at-risk youth stands accused of sexual relations with one of the residents. Amanda Renee McCool was arrested Tuesday, Aug. 21, at her Haysville home on suspicion of unlawful sexual relations. It is illegal for a law enforcement officer or jail employee to have sex with an inmate. According to information provided by the Sedgwick County Sheriff ’s Department, McCool allegedly had sexual relations with a 16-year-old boy at Lakeside Academy, which is located just east of Lake Afton in rural Goddard. McCool was employed by Lakeside Academy.

According to KFDI Radio, the incident was reported in March and has been under investigation since then.
As of Wednesday afternoon, Aug. 22, McCool had bonded out of the Sedgwick County Jail and had yet to be formally charged.

Kris Kobach holds a press conference calling for GOP unity and support after rival candidate Gov. Jeff Colyer conceded the primary earlier this month.
Links with racists follow Kobach into 2018 run By Celia Llopis-Jepsen Kansas News Service
Kris Kobach lost his 2004 bid for Congress to Democrat Dennis Moore by a hefty margin – nearly 12 percentage points in a district that went Republican a few years later. Ask Moore’s media consultant what turned that race, and he’ll point to allegations that Kobach took money from people with thinly veiled white supremacist agendas. “It stopped his progress dead in the water,” recalls Martin Hamburger, who created a 2004 ad that hammered Kobach on that front. In the TV ad, scored with ominous music, a deep voice intones: “Why are Kansans turning from Kris Kobach?” “Look who’s supporting him. People in groups tied to white supremacists gave Kobach thousands. One even hired Kobach.” Kobach and Moore tore at each other over that ad on a debate stage that fall. Kobach accused the incumbent of stooping to “politics of personal destruction.” “This isn’t about personality,” Moore retorted. “It’s about judgment. It’s about people we choose to take money from and associate with.” As Kobach heads into the general election for governor, he’s facing the same allegations. This month, The Topeka Capital-Journal reported concerns from GOP consultants that his campaign is employing three white nationalists.
Goddard-Campus soccer tournament is next week
Meanwhile, a small but vocal PAC called Kobach is Wrong for Kansas stops short of calling him racist, but argues he associates with, and benefits from, groups with white supremacist sympathies. “He’s unrelenting in his willingness to accept support from people who share harmful ideas,” says Zachary Mueller, the group’s researcher. In a recent interview with the Kansas News Service, Kobach dismissed the PAC’s criticisms. He accuses his opponents of engaging in a “Kevin Bacon game” to link him by several degrees of separation to racist ideologies. “It’s just a stupid argument,” he said, and on a personal level, it’s “hurtful.” “I believe we are all God’s children,” he said. “We are all created equal.” So what are the allegations against Kobach? They run the gamut, but here are two that have been independently reported by local and national news outlets over the years. According to The New York Times, The Kansas City Star and ProPublica, for years, Kobach did legal work sponsored by John Tanton’s organization, the Federation for American Immigration Reform. His work focused on anti-illegal immigration initiatives, such as trying
Think:
to get Kansas colleges to charge students out-ofstate tuition if the students aren’t in the U.S. legally. Tanton – according to the Times – wanted to convince white people they needed to stop the U.S. from changing demographically, and republished a racist French novel about hordes of refugees and “the end of the white world.” Kobach earned more than $125,000 from Tanton’s group and received thousands more in campaign contributions from a PAC run by Tanton’s wife. Kobach’s critics also point to other co-appearances, collaborations or hat-tips that they say link Kobach to racists and Holocaust deniers. Among these is a column Kobach wrote for the radically conservative Breitbart website arguing illegal immigrants commit more crime than U.S. citizens – despite, according to experts, a lack of evidence. Kobach leaned in part on writing by Peter Gemma, whom the Anti-Defamation League calls a racist. In 2005, the Washington Post reported Gemma was working with a white supremacist group opposed to white people mixing with other races, and that he held a speaking event for high-profile Holocaust denier David Irving.

A housewarming gift with benefits Last week Kim and I spent a few days in Sacramento, Calif., visiting my son and his wife. Bill and Eun-Ah just bought a house in Sacramento, and our visit was the first chance to see their house, other than pictures and a walkthrough video. The kids are excited to own their own home, and in California, that’s no small feat. But they did well. It’s a beautiful starter home that’s been nicely remodeled, and has a nice mid-century modern feel to it. They’re excited to own their first home, and they should be. The change has been dramatic, since it involved a move from the San Francisco Bay Area to Sacramento, and some adjustment for my son Bill, who is commuting back to the Bay Area some days for work. Still, they are really happy with what Sacramento has to offer them in terms of their leisure time, community amenities, restaurants and easy access around the city. I noticed some similarities to Wichita in terms of the size of the city, its division into west, east and midtown areas, a river that helps create those boundaries, and relatively easy traffic flow. Bill was able to take some time off work, and we were able to explore Sacramento and do several fun things. We visited old Sacramento, which is filled with historic buildings from the city’s early days; we toured the California State Capitol and its incredible grounds; we hiked the American River; and we did some estate sale shopping, California style. The estate sale shopping was something we wanted to do from the get-go, since Kim and I have a booth at a Wichita antique mall. It was a fun experience, and we now know that estate sales in California are managed very differently from estate sales here in the Wichita area. Here, sales usually run three days and are full price the first day, 25 percent off the second day, and 50 percent off the third day. In California, there rarely are set discount days, but on the final day of the sale you are encouraged to “haggle” on prices. Alrighty, then…bring on the final day of the sale!
From the Editor’s Files
Paul Rhodes | Publisher & Editor
There were a lot of sales available in and around Sacramento, but unfortunately there was only one sale that was ending on Saturday, which was our day to shop. We visited some other sales and purchased a few things, but this particular sale was our “honey hole” for the day – and our final stop. By then, Bill and Eunah were starting to get into the groove of estate sale shopping. Since they were just shopping for themselves and not an antiques booth, they were pretty selective on their purchases. And we certainly didn’t want to push them, since a lot of people are put off at the thought of shopping estate sales in the first place. At this final sale, however, Bill and Eun-ah were all in. They found a beautiful loveseat sleeper that was nearly new, almost never used, and priced pretty reasonably. This loveseat was $2,000, according to the owners, and we haggled them down to a very reasonable price of $150, which I happily paid as a housewarming gift to my son and daughter-in-law. All we had to do was get this big piece of furniture home. My son had a little buyer’s remorse until we found a truck to rent cheap at a Home Depot, and with relative ease we had the sofa back at his house and settled into a spot in what will be their family room once they get more settled in. Kim and I even returned the truck and retrieved Bill’s car so he could decompress from the whole whirlwind experience. At our layover at the Dallas Airport the next day, I got a text from my daughter-in-law: “We are sitting on and admiring the couch right now. Been lounging and reading on it all morning…it’s so comfortable! It will certainly motivate us to get the family room cleaned up.” How about that…a housewarming gift with benefits.
Cheese and thank you
Dairy important economically, nutritionally What would a sweltering summer day be like without an occasional stop at the local ice cream parlor for a couple scoops? Can you imagine eating piping hot chocolate cookies without a frosty glass of milk? Imagine sipping a buttery glass of chardonnay without a couple of pieces of aged cheddar. Every day in this great country of ours we can partake of these wholesome, nutritious dairy products; but if there were no dairy farmers, dairy cows or dairy industry, there would be none of these tasty treats. Dairy products remain a major source of nutrients in our daily diets. If they’re not, they should be. To find another source for the 300 milligrams of calcium found in either an eight-ounce glass of milk, a cup of yogurt or 1-1/2 ounces of natural cheese, the average person would have to graze on eight cups of spinach, six cups of pinto beans or two and one-half cups of broccoli, according to the Midwest Dairy Association. The primary nutrients found in milk and other dairy products are calcium, vitamins A and D, carbohydrates, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, riboflavin and high-quality proteins. U.S. dairy farmers provide an estimated $140 billion annually

to this nation’s economy. Dairy farmers help sustain rural America. Even considering this nation’s continuing economic challenges, dairy farmers and companies are a lifeline to 900,000 jobs in this country. Dairy is local. Dairy farm families are business owners. Every glass of milk and each dairy product produced by these family businesses brings vitality to local and state economies. Kansas farms generate approximately $537 million in milk sales annually. In Kansas, the average dairy cow produces about seven gallons of milk per day. That’s more than 2,585 gallons of milk over the course of a typical year. Growth in the Kansas dairy industry means economic growth and access
to safe dairy products for local communities and the state. The Kansas ag growth dairy strategy has identified the expansion of the influence, presence and professional standing of the Kansas dairy industry as a priority. This development has been fueled by the arrival of large-scale dairy operations, primarily in western Kansas. Milk production has doubled since 1994 and grown more than 25 percent in the last five years. There are now approximately 290 dairies in the state, milking 154,000 cows. It takes about 48 hours for milk to travel from the farm to the dairy case. As in nearly every sector of the agricultural industry, the United States has more milk production than any other country in the world. This country has six major breeds of dairy cattle: Holstein, Jersey, Brown Swiss, Guernsey, Ayrshire and Milking Shorthorn.
Dairy cows begin producing milk after they calve, when they are about two years old. Most cows are milked twice a day in modern milking facilities that incorporate gentle machines attached and removed by dairy farmers. Today, all milk sold in grocery stores is pasteurized during processing. During pasteurization, milk is briefly heated to a temperature high enough to destroy bacteria without affecting its flavor or food value. Yes, since the first cow arrived in the Jamestown Colony back in 1611, America’s dairy farmers have been helping provide a healthy, nutritious food product. So, fill your glass with milk every day. Dip a couple scoops of vanilla ice cream on that piece of apple pie. Cut another slice of cheese for a summer snack. And give thanks to Kansas and America’s dairy farmers.

Be snake savvy and safe in the outdoors While the odds are very low that you will be bitten by a venomous snake in Kansas, that’s little consolation for anyone who ends up with a bite. Of the 42 species of snakes in Kansas, there are only four native venomous snakes you might encounter: the prairie rattlesnake – found in the western half of the state; the massasauga rattlesnake – found in the eastern two-thirds of the state; the timber rattlesnake – found in the eastern fourth of the state; and the copperhead, found in the eastern third of the state. Cottonmouths are very rare in Kansas. Western diamond-backed rattlesnakes were introduced, but are not widespread and have been recorded in only a few central-Kansas locations. All venomous snakes found in Kansas are pit vipers. Their venom is hemotoxic, causing internal bleeding and tissue damage. Snakes are active during the warmer months between late March and November – the same time when people are most active outdoors. Most snakes are found in rural or semi-rural areas where there is suitable habitat and prey. They may be found in woodlands and shrubby areas; brush, log
or rock piles; around water; in tall grass; around rocky outcrops or ledges; or even under ornamental shrubbery and gardens. Snakes cannot regulate their body temperature internally, so when it’s hot, they may be more active at night, retreating to shady areas or under rocks and logs during the day. When it’s cooler, they tend to be more active during the day. Venomous snakes are generally shy, but they will bite in self-defense if you step too close, step on or provoke them. Learn how to recognize them. They are well-camouflaged, so watch where you walk, and don’t go barefoot or wear flipflops or sandals. Instead, wear sturdy leather shoes or boots. To help protect your legs, wear long pants rather than shorts. Special snake chaps and boots are available. Wear leather gloves when handling brush, and never reach into an area you can’t see. If you think you’ve been bitten by a venomous snake, stay calm to slow the spread of the venom. Keep the site of the bite quiet and below the level of your heart. Call 911 or get to a hospital as quickly as possible, but do not try to drive yourself.
It is not necessary to catch or kill the snake, because a single type of antivenom is used to treat all pit viper bites in the U.S. Do not apply a tourniquet or ice, and never attempt to cut the bite marks and suck out the venom. Do not drink alcohol or caffeinated beverages. There are usually one or two puncture marks. If the snake injected venom (they can choose whether to inject venom, and about 25 percent of bites are “dry”), there may be burning pain along with redness, and
swelling around the bite that may progress along the limb. Nausea and vomiting can occur. Your vision may be affected and breathing can become labored. Other symptoms may include increased salivation and sweating and numbness or tingling around your face and limbs. Nationwide, snakebite deaths are rare, but bites can be very painful and cause serious tissue damage. Always seek immediate medical attention if you think you have been bitten.

The council chose to table any action until its next meeting on Sept. 10. In other business, the council approved spending $154,061.36 with Insituform Technologies USA, LLC to install cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) to rehabilitate more than 6,500 linear feet of the city’s sewer pipe, basically in an area north and west of Timber Lane Drive. Public works director Tony Martinez said once this project is complete, the city will have rehabilitated approximately 40 percent of the system. The CIPP is a liner inserted into the existing pipe and then inflated. The “taps” are then cut from inside the

That dealer had the state bid contract price, which is the lowest available, according to Chief Jeff Whitfield. The council held a 15-minute executive session to discuss non-elected personnel that included the police chief, city attorney and city administrator. No binding action was taken.

IB program increasingly successful By Sam Jack
Haysville Sun-Times sjack@tsnews.com
As Campus High School’s International Baccalaureate (IB) program starts its sixth year, a report shows a steady increase in the number of Campus students taking on and conquering its challenges. The report, which the USD 261 Haysville Board of Education reviewed Aug. 20, shows that 20 of 39 students in the IB program’s 2018 senior class succeeded in passing rigorous final exams and earning the IB Diploma. The proportion of students earning the IB Diploma has increased since the first group of Campus seniors graduated from the program in 2016. Ten of 31 students earned the diploma that year, and eight of 18 got it in 2017. Joe Sailors, the Campus assistant principal who administers IB, said a number of factors could help explain the increase in student success. “For one, it takes time for the teachers to get used to the type of expectations
File photo
Campus High students get ready for an International Baccalaureate class back in 2015. USD 261 has seen more success in each year of the program, which features more rigorous classes and final exams.
that the program has in terms of how they teach and approaching learning,” he said. “Secondly, I think we’re seeing that same type of instruction moving down into the ninth- and tenth-grade levels, so it’s
prepping kids better when they start the program. ... Plus, we are seeing kids’ levels of engagement and interest in the program rising every year. I think that they know what to expect coming in, which is
very different than when we first started. They know they have to work really hard from the start.” The IB class of 2018 racked up nearly $10 million in total scholarship offers, Sailors reported,
and graduates chose to attend in-state universities and colleges as well as Ivy League schools like Cornell and Columbia. “All of those places have been affordable for our kids,” Sailors noted.
“Places like Dartmouth or Macalester – schools that are costing $60,000 per year – end up as or more affordable than staying home and going to WSU. ... It just seems to have become an expectation of our IB students that they’re open to seeking out the possibilities available to them and not limiting themselves.” Campus’s two-year IB program is open-access, which sets it apart from the one at Wichita East High School. While the increase in the IB Diploma rate is welcome, Campus does not aim to match East’s pass rate, which hovers around 90 percent. “For any student who wants that opportunity to take IB, what their academic performance was or classes they’ve taken prior to IB – that doesn’t make any difference,” Sailors said. “If they want to take on the challenge and give it a shot, then we want them to do that. I feel very strongly that any student who goes through the program has benefited from it, whether they receive their IB Diploma or not.”

Colts hope to build on last year’s gridiron success By Travis Mounts
Haysville Sun-Times news@tsnews.com
The Campus Colts did something in 2017 that no previous Colts had done – win a football playoff game. That victory came against Hutchinson, a team that has been a perennial State contender in 6A and 5A, and the Colts beat the Salthawks twice on the road in a three-week span. Campus did lose its following playoff game, but by that point school history had been made. And now, the Colts look to keep building on that success. “We had a very good summer and worked hard. We have a good core returning. They’ll have to work extremely hard to bring along the younger kids,” said head coach Greg Slade. The Colts return seven starters on each side of the ball. On offense, the line will
be anchored by Gavin Brown, Seth Falley and Robbie Adamson, all seniors. The receiving corps will be strong, too, led by Quinton Hicks and Tyler Kahmann, both seniors as well. Then add in seniors Cameron Harvey and Sam Wise, who can play as slot receivers and as running backs. “They’re very versatile,” Slade said of Harvey and Wise. The defense brings back one defensive lineman, four linebackers and two defensive backs. “Mateo Martinez will anchor our defensive line,” Slade said. Look for Brycen Schroeder, Nathan Preece, Kahmann and Hicks to make a difference at the linebacker position. Harvey should stand out in the secondary. One new face comes at a very key position. Evan Kruse takes over at quarterback. “He’s done a good job at stepping in,” Slade said.
Like the other players mentioned, Kruse is a senior, giving the Colts a lot of experience and maturity. This will be the third year that teams in Class 6A and 5A play without a district format. Teams will be seeded in West and East brackets by record, and Week 9 of the regular season will be the first playoff game, with all teams in Kansas playing. That’s the week where the Colts picked up that playoff win over Hutchinson last season. Dodge City, Newton and Wichita Southeast are new on the schedule. “We’ll have some key matchups in our league, but you look at our schedule and you have got to be prepared to play each week. You need to go 1-0 each week,” Slade said. The Colts begin the season with a pair of road games, starting at Dodge City this Friday. The Red Demons were 3-6 last year.
Then comes a road game at Newton. The Railers have moved up to Div. I in the Ark Valley Chisholm Trail League this season. The home opener is Sept. 14 against Maize. Last year’s accomplishments don’t necessarily carry over to this season, but it does help the program’s growth continue. Slade said there were a couple games last season the Colts should have won and didn’t. “We need to play to our ability,” he said. “The big thing coming off last year, we had good seasons in our winter and spring sports. It’s a lot of the same kids. We’re trying to build that across the board.”

Colts approach volleyball season with excitement By Travis Mounts
Haysville Sun-Times news@tsnews.com
CAMPUS COLTS CAMPUS COLTS CAMPUS COLTS
There’s a palpable excitement for the new season among Campus High volleyball players and coaches. After a 12-23 record a season ago, the Colts hope to make big strides up the ladder in the Ark Valley Chisholm Trail League, and they hope to make those strides on the strength of a large senior class. The Colts have nine seniors on this year’s team. Head coach Mary Askren will rely heavily on four of those seniors plus a sophomore. Leading the Colts will be seniors Hannah Schutte and Tannah Tilley. Schutte,
a setter and right-side hitter, is a three-year captain. She earned second-team league honors last year and was honorable mention in 2016. Tilley, an outside hitter, is a two-year captain who was AVCTL honorable mention the past two seasons. Joining them are senior Lauren Johnson, a twoyear starter at libero, and senior Camryn Huggans, a middle hitter and threeyear starter. Seniors Lilli Davis and Jadyn Busby are moving up from the junior varsity team. Sophomore Theya David also will play a key role as an outside hitter. Askren said David is an athletic and coachable player who brings a mental toughness to the court. Also moving into varsity roles this year

are juniors Kelsey Huggans and Megan Bechtold. “Tannah will be stepping up to be a force on the outside hitting position. Hannah will be working as both a right-side hitter and setter. We are transitioning from our 5-1 offense from the last three seasons, to running a 6-2 offense. Both Hannah and Megan will be at the helm of this change,” Askren said. “Our blocking from our middle hitters will be key to our success this season, being Camryn Huggans, Anyssa Sponsel, Sydney Cooper. Our seniors this season will play an integral role in our success this upcoming season.” The preseason excitement may have been tempered just a bit after a tough start to the season
last Saturday. The Colts went 0-6 at the Ark Valley Chisholm Trail League preseason tournament in Hutchinson, which featured teams from the AVCTL’s top two divisions plus Dodge City and Liberal. The Colts went three sets with both Maize and Salina Central. The Colts won the opening
set against Maize but fell 25-20, 25-22, 25-12. Salina Central won 25-12, 21-25, 25-14. Campus was close in two other matches, falling 24-26, 21-25 to Liberal, and 21-25, 23-25 to Salina South. The Colts lost 1125, 23-25 to McPherson,

Cross country team has large freshman class By Sam Jack
Haysville Sun-Times sjack@tsnews.com
The 2018 Campus Colts cross country team has a large proportion of freshmen this year. Of 34
athletes on the roster, 15 are in their first year of high school. The majority of last year’s team was made up of seniors, Colts head coach Cooper Clark said. “A lot of what we have
to do is kind of have the upperclassmen show the young kids the ropes,” Clark said. “We really want to keep the same culture that we had last year, keep building off of that, and have the young kids buy
into what we’ve established in the past. That’s not necessarily just technique, but habits of what we do on a daily basis, what’s the right way to do things.” Among the athletes who are returning are
seniors Angel Duenez and Nathaniel Caballero. They both qualified for the Class 6A State Championship race last season. On the girls’ side, the Colts have a strong group of juniors, led by Ellie Groh. “They’re coming off a pretty good track season, so we’re excited to see what they’re going to do this fall,” Clark said. Outside of the top three runners on the boys and girls teams, this season’s varsity spots are somewhat up for grabs.

“There’s a lot of opportunities for younger runners and returning upperclassmen to take those spots,” Clark said. “I won’t be sure what we have until we have our first race this Saturday.”

Colts will try to match record-setting season By Sam Jack
Haysville Sun-Times sjack@tsnews.com
By many measures, the Campus Colts’ 2017 boys soccer season was the best in the program’s history. The 2017 Colts won 14 matches, a program record, and they won all 14 of those games by shutout. They were AVCTL Div. I league champions for the first time ever. They also won the Campus-Goddard tournament for the first time ever. The only blemish on the heady season was its final match, when the Colts lost 2-1 in a regional final to Wichita North and just missed a spot at the State tournament. Colts head coach Casey Reece thinks that a strong core of returning players will allow the growing excitement around Colts soccer to continue this year. “We’re returning five of our 11 starters, so we still have a pretty solid core in place that’s going to help propel us to continue some of that success from last year,” Reece said. Last year’s junior varsity team also won 14 games, Reece noted, a sign of a strong group of younger players who are ready to step up. One returner is senior goalkeeper Rylan Walter, who gets a lot of credit for all those Colts shutout wins. Walter averaged less than 1 goal allowed per game in 2017.
“He was pretty much impossible to score on from the outside last year. He’s going to keep us in a lot of games just with his ability to cover the goal from post to post,” Reece said. Senior midfielder Erique Holloway will play his fourth season of varsity soccer. “We’re looking for big things from him. He’s probably our most dynamic player,” Reece said. Sophomore Hassan Al-Amood will take over a striker role for the Colts, Reece said. “We’ve been seeing good things from him over the summer and
early on in practice.” Returning defenders Cole Thompson and Daine Crum will help continue the Colts’ strength on the defensive side. Reece said that he and his assistant coaches, Kerry Greenstreet and Jeremy Willig, have been working hard to grow soccer in the Haysville community. Fifteen freshmen came out for the sport this fall, a record number. “In Haysville, we don’t get to reload with club players every year,” Reece said. “We might get one or two a year, so we really rely on getting some kids that don’t have that expe-
rience, catching them at a young age and hopefully building them up so that

For a number of years, Campus High School girls who wanted to golf had to do so as members of the boys team. But enough girls have now shown interest that the school has created a girls team, and 10 girls will be part of the Colts’ inaugural season. Just as the team is new, nearly all of the girls are new to golf. Senior Alaina McCallop is the lone golfer with experience. She has been on the Colts’ boys golf team for three seasons, and played in some boys varsity tournaments last year. The rest of the team is learning the game, which involves a different approach to coaching for head coach Josh Curtiss. “The biggest thing we’re working on is making solid contact with the golf ball,” he said. “It’s more about personal success, and it’s going to be little successes – hitting the ball correctly, watching it fly correctly, and to have fun.” He said the team is finding some of those successes
ROSTER early. The most important thing is for the players to learn to love the game. “You can have a horrible day, have a great shot on the last hole, and you’re ready to go again,” Curtiss said. He said a highlight of the season will be playing at Sand Creek Station in Newton. “It’s such a fun course and one of the better public courses around,” he said. The Colts started the season on Monday playing near home, at Derby. Curtiss took just four golfers, noting that others are not ready for varsity play yet. Many of the Colts’ tour-

Historian to share ‘Kansas Oddities’ at library By Sam Jack
Haysville Sun-Times sjack@tsnews.com
Kansas historian Roger Ringer will give a presentation on “Kansas Oddities” at the Haysville Community Library on Saturday, Sept. 15. The event, sponsored by the Kansas Society of The Sons of the American Revolution, is free and open to the public. Lunch will be available starting at noon, and Ringer’s presentation begins at 2 p.m. “Kansas Oddities,” Ringer’s first book, includes a sampling of the odd and extraordinary stories he has encountered during his long career as a Kansas history interpreter and enthusiast. “I tell the stories as they are,” Ringer said. “I’m not a historian that tries to put any kind of opinion or twist on them, other than I’m always in awe of the fact that there’s no such
thing as a typical Kansan. “Kansans walk to the beat of their own drummer,” he continued. “They see that star in the sky, and they reach for it, and they don’t quit until they either fail trying or make it. That’s the history of the entire state.” One of the stories highlighted on the book’s cover concerns Just Bill, the celebrity rooster. “Bill was owned by a man in Stafford, and he won several championships in rooster competitions,” Ringer said. “He was noticed by Warner-Pathé pictures. They were looking for a rooster to be their MGM lion, their mascot.” The rooster not only had a great crow, he had been trained to deploy it on cue. “Bill brought down the house,” Ringer said. “So he was given a contract and went to Hollywood. Now every time you see an old Pathé newsreel or one of their early mov-
ies, the opening scene is always Just Bill, crowing. It’s one of those strange little stories nobody has heard of outside of Stafford.” Ringer also highlights Kansas inventors. Two inventors from Goodland created an early model of a helicopter, and the first production automobile west of the Mississippi was built in Parsons. Some other stories are downbeat, or even tragic. Ringer tells the story of a natural saltwater mineral spring that was destroyed in the 1950s, and of Threshing Machine Canyon, the site of a deadly 1850s Native American attack on a wagon train. “There are just stories from all over the state, and all different portions of the state. Hopefully the book is successful enough to where we can come back with a volume two or three.” Copies of the book will be available for purchase,

Teacher wins grant for 3D printer
Rex Elementary second-grace teacher Randy Pretzer received a $500 grant from Credit Union of American. The Teacher Grants, Ideas Financed (TGIF) grant will be used to purchase a DaVinci Pro 3D
printer. “We will be using the printer to teach STEAM lessons across the curriculum in a PBL format,” Pretzer wrote in his grant application. “Some of my plans include allowing students to use modeling
software to interact with the projects (technology), designing projects (art), explaining the process (writing), using dimensions (math), and the whole thing is basically a big science project. “I also would like to
work with the school to form a club, maybe before school, so that students from other grades could learn some of the concepts. That is a dream for the future that I haven’t worked out completely yet.”
