CHENEY – There are few people who outdo Cheney seniors Dorothy Guetschow and Carol Trow in terms of volunteer spirit.

The two friends have spent thousands of hours hand-crafting thousands of hats, prayer shawls, tote bags and other items for Sedgwick County’s Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) and for Cheney United Methodist Church’s prayer shawl ministry.

Needlework has been a lifelong avocation for both women.

“I learned when I was 10 years old, to knit and crochet both,” Guetschow said, “and I turned 98 on the 22nd of August. It’s been a long time.”

Guetschow volunteered to knit sweaters for soldiers during World War II, she noted. So when RSVP invited her to crochet for charity, around 2004, she was happy to sign up.

Each year, RSVP throws a banquet to recognize its volunteers. Guetschow has been a top winner for many years running.

Trow joined Guetschow as an RSVP volunteer in 2011. Trow has crocheted more than 3,000 hats for the group.

Odds and Ends

CLEARWATER – Clearwater’s police chief will be stepping down later this month, according to an announcement released this week.

“It is with great regret that the City of Clearwater announces that Police Chief Bill Hisle has submitted his intent to resign as Police Chief effective mid to late October. Chief Hisle stated ongoing health issues and concerns led him to make this very difficult decision,” the announcement read.

Hisle started with the city in December 2015. The city praised his efforts during his time as chief.

“He has overseen several improvements and upgrades to the department including helping set up an equipment and vehicle replacement schedule and increased officer training. His leadership and guidance will be greatly missed by the staff and citizens of Clearwater and we wish him the best of luck as he begins the next phase of his career,” the statement read.

A committee will be formed soon to begin the search for his replacement.

Only minor changes as new school classes released

By Travis Mounts

The Times-Sentinel news@tsnews.com

Last week, the Kansas State High School Activities Association released its new classification for football in the 2020 and 2021 seasons, and for all other sports and all activities for the 2019-20 school year.

The only significant change will be for Goddard Lions football. The Lions will move from 4A back to 5A, where they had been for several years and where they compete in all other activities.

That puts Goddard and Eisenhower back into play as football playoff rivals, a position they were in when they first split into two schools.

Both have remained in 5A for all other activities.

KSHSAA made sweeping changes to its classifications two years ago , especially in football, where classes and playoff formats changed most significantly. The Lions moved to 4A for the football

Finally fall?

September ended as one of the warmest months on record in the Wichita area, but the end of this week may bring some autumn-like weather. Rain is in the forecast for Thursday through Saturday, with a Thursday high predicted to be just 64 degrees. Things will warm from there, with a high Friday of 70, and 78 on Saturday.

Cheney’s 25th annual Make a Difference Day is Saturday

By Sam Jack

The Times-Sentinel sjack@tsnews.com

CHENEY – Cheney’s 25th annual Make a Difference Day fundraiser will be held Saturday at the Farm Bureau Building.

Add up the impact of a quarter century of fundraisers and it’s clear that they have made a big difference in Cheney.

Organizers identify a community cause or project each year and hold a silent auction, food and raffle event to raise money in support of it.

Past projects include Budd Park playground

equipment and a Cheney entrance sign. Last year, proceeds went toward purchase of new Main Street banners featuring the photography of former Cheney mayor Carl Koster.

Rena Mies said that she, current Mayor Linda Ball and the late Dorothy Albers were in on the beginning of Make a Difference Day. “The very first one we had was held downtown, and it was a benefit for the emergency fund. The city donated hot dogs, the bank donated drinks, and we had people bring nonperishable food items that we then shared with

the local food bank,” Mies said. “We got so much that we also shared it with the food bank in Wichita.”

When the Farm Bureau Building was built, Make a Difference Day moved there, and some of the fundraising over the years went toward refurbishments at the building.

Among the early auction items were some signature baked goods created by local women.

“Toots Kohler was known for her pies, and John Hillman’s mom, Thelma, was known for her cinnamon rolls. Margie Foley, Fred’s mom, was known for her custard pies,” Mies recalled.

“They’d bring those, and they would be auctioned off for hundreds of dollars for one pie. That was always fun and kind of special, to have those three gals who were well-known in the community for years and years.”

Mies is pleased and proud that a new generation of volunteers is carrying on with the event.

“A few years ago, Linda and I realized we needed to get some of the younger-than-us folks involved, and they’ve done an awesome job. They have added kids’ activities, which we didn’t have in the beginning,” Mies said.

Fittingly, funds raised at this year’s Make a Difference Day will go toward a new round of improvements at the Farm Bureau Building, including new flooring, roof repairs, new LED lighting, and work on the walls.

Make a Difference Day starts at 6 p.m., when a picnic dinner of hamburgers and hot dogs will be served. Free will donations to the Cheney Emergency Fund will be accepted.

The annual live auction will include items donated by local businesses and individuals. Stop by Citizens State Bank to see some of the items that will

be offered.

Those who wish to donate gift baskets and other items can drop them off at the bank during business hours. Organizers request that auction items be valued at at least $25.

Attendees can also buy raffle tickets to win a Weber grill, with proceeds benefiting the Cheney Police Department’s D.A.R.E. program.

While their parents bid and socialize, kids can head next door for supervised fun at Cheney Rec. Admission for carnival games will be $5, and includes a ticket for a toy raffle.

‘First Impressions’ results shared at chamber meeting

By Sam Jack The Times-Sentinel sjack@tsnews.com HAYSVILLE – More than 60 people gathered at Haysville’s City Hall last Thursday to hear what folks from elsewhere thought of their city.

Three people from Arkansas City toured Haysville as part of K-State Research and Extension’s First Impressions program. The visitors filled out surveys, and Extension employee Nancy Knopp Daniels documented the tour in photographs.

Daniels also presented the results during the Haysville Chamber of Commerce event last week.

“We’d be surprised if anything here is surprising to you, but hopefully it’s a new way to frame the conversation about what’s going on in Haysville,” Daniels said.

Based on their survey responses, the visitors’ impressions were overwhelmingly positive.

“Clean, well-groomed, seems like lots happening,” one anonymous visitor said.

“Great movement in the town, people getting things done, city crews beautifying that place up. People riding bikes, walking, and enjoying the things the town offers.”

The visitors did note that Haysville has few older buildings (a 1999 tornado erased many historic struc-

tures from the map), and that the city’s retail establishments are more drivable than walkable. Those are things that can’t easily be changed, Daniels said.

“To me what you’ve done is the right thing: to focus on quality of life and say, ‘This is who we are,’” she said. “The fact that you are close to Wichita is a fantastic asset that you have. You can start your career and live in Haysville.”

An open discussion following Daniels’ presentation touched on some residents’ perception that Haysville is viewed negatively: “Nothing but junkyards, trailer courts and beer joints,” as Marion Renner put it, describing the stereotypical view.

Several people said that that stereotype doesn’t reflect Haysville’s reality.

“Everybody who lives here, we know what the city is like, but that’s not what the reputation of the city is,” said Steven Crum, a member of the Haysville City Council. “We have to be more positive about getting studies like this out there and letting people see them.”

GEAR UP From Page A1 are beneficiaries of a multi-million-dollar federal GEAR UP grant. The goal of GEAR UP is to increase the number of low-income students who are prepared to enter and succeed in post-secondary education. GEAR UP stands for “Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs.”

This is the first year for the program in Haysville. College readiness services will follow the current middle school students through high school and into college.

GEAR UP Day included a keynote address from Alex Sheen, creator and owner of “Because I Said I Would.” Students also participated in a banquet etiquette workshop and nine rotating workshops.

During the event, USD 261 Haysville received an award recognizing it as GEAR UP Community Partner of the Year.

Gorillas race at Goddard, Haysville

The Haysville West Middle School Gorillas cross country team raced last Tuesday at Goddard and last Thursday at South Lakes Softball Complex.

“The course at Goddard is a little more difficult than the previous course, but the kids ran well,” Gorillas coach Chris Shipman said. “The best part of each race was watching each runner competing at the end.”

Eleven of the 13 HWMS runners achieved personal records. River Hart continued her streak of medaling in every meet, placing 21st.

The seventh grade boys were led this week by Ashton Crumpler, who placed 32nd. He was followed by Colton Brown in 34th place, Vincent Finley in 104th place, and Ethan Powers in 138th place. There were 25 teams and 151 runners in the race.

The seventh grade girls team was led by Hart in 21st, and she was followed by Emily Lamar in 53rd place. There were 25 teams and 100 runners in the race.

Audree Dean once again ran well for the eighth grade girls. She placed 34th out of a race with 54 runners, missing a medal by four places.

The eighth grade boys were led by Damien Craig once again, who placed 42nd. He was followed by Nick Nguyen in 57th, Leland Seiwert in 67th, Ethan Peitz in 69th, Cristian Ramirez in 80th, and Samuel Schmidt in 98th place. They placed 12th out of 25 teams, and there were 113 runners in the race.

The Gorillas hosted their annual cross country invitational on Sept. 26.

“This is a very competitive meet, and the team performed above expectations,” Shipman said. “All 13 runners achieved personal records, and the team also had five of 13 runners receive medals.”

Hart, Crumpler, Brown, Dean and Craig received medals, which were given to the top 25 in each contest.

The seventh grade girls were led by Hart, placing 15th. This was her fourth consecutive race receiving a medal. She was followed by Emily Lamar in 44th.

There were 77 runners in the race and 13 teams.

Crumpler led the seventh grade boys with a 15thplace finish. He was followed closely by Brown in 20th place. The two medalists were followed by Vincent Finley in 44th and Ethan Powers in 74th place. The boys placed ninth as a team. There were 86 runners and 13 teams.

For the eighth grade girls, Dean placed 17th, receiving her first medal of the season. There were 39 runners in the race and 13 teams.

The eighth grade boys were paced again by Craig, who placed 17th. He was followed by Nick Nguyen in 38th, Cristian Ramirez in 39th, Leland Seiwert in 40th, Ethan Peitz in 42nd, and Sam Schmidt in 57th place. There were 68 runners and 13 teams.

Local pharmacist takes over as owner

By Sam Jack

The Times-Sentinel sjack@tsnews.com

CLEARWATER – Nancy Milledge is the new owner of Clearwater Pharmacy, she recently announced.

She has been the local pharmacist on staff since Clearwater Pharmacy opened in May 2016. Prior to that, she worked as pharmacist at Clearwater’s short-lived Walmart, starting in December 2014.

This is Milledge’s first time to own her own, independent pharmacy, and she feels blessed, she said.

“The previous owners were approached by another pharmacist who wanted to purchase, but

they knew my ties to the community,” she said.

“They came to me and said, ‘You have first rights to buy it.’ At my age, I thought I’d be fading out instead of gaining more momentum – but they really encouraged me to sit down and think about it, not make a hasty decision. I just felt like this was the path God was leading me.”

Milledge has developed many close relationships with Clearwater residents, and she is glad those relationships can continue.

“The public won’t see many changes at all,” she said. “They shouldn’t notice any difference in our services or pricing. I grew

up in Council Grove and worked at an independent pharmacy all through high school, so that’s really what I strive to be: the Main Street business owner who is there for the community in whatever capacity I can serve.”

During Medicare enrollment periods, Milledge is happy to sit down with customers, go through their lists of medications, and help them figure out which Part D plan will be most cost-effective.

“We also do free delivery, and in general, we just try to do what’s right for the patients,” Milledge said.

Milledge is engaged to Clint Bradfield, who works at Textron. She has three

Mentorship program highlighted at chamber

By Sam Jack

The Times-Sentinel sjack@tsnews.com

GODDARD – A new mentorship program was highlighted during the Goddard Chamber of Commerce’s monthly membership luncheon, held at Dove Estates on Thursday, Sept. 12.

Goddard Academy Connections seeks to connect every interested student at the Goddard Academy and Lakeside Academy with an adult mentor, counselor Lee Keller said.

Around 65 students want to participate.

“We have a lot of kids that are in need. We have

some really, really good kids,” Keller said.

Mentors will be asked to have some kind of contact with their mentees on a monthly basis. That could mean writing notes, sharing a breakfast or lunch, or just stopping by to say hello. Having a positive relationship with an adult can make a tremendous difference in a student’s life, Keller said.

Two Goddard Academy students accompanied Keller to the meeting. Both said they love the school and have enjoyed opportunities such as volunteering with elementary school students at Amelia Earhart.

“They’re helping me

become the person I am supposed to be,” Cam’Ron Moses said. Moses transferred to the Goddard Academy from Lakeside, a residential center for at-risk youth, and he now plays football and basketball for the Goddard Lions.

A kick-off meeting for the mentorship program was held last month, but it’s not too late to get involved. People interested in volunteering should contact Goddard Academy principal Brian Gee at 316-794-4000 or bgee@ goddardusd.com.

After lunch, chamber members stuck around for a presentation from Digital Office Systems.

Garage sale will benefit library

GODDARD – The Goddard Public Library Friends & Foundation will hold a garage sale at the library during Goddard Fall Festival this Saturday.

The sale will begin at 8 a.m. and continue until around 2 p.m. All proceeds will benefit the new Friends & Foundation group.

Children’s clothes, small furniture, toys and household items will be accepted, but organizers request that large furniture, appliances and adult clothing not be donated.

Cremation: an affordable way to go

Dear Savvy Senior, How much does cremation cost and how can I find a good deal in my area? I would like to get a simple, basic cremation that doesn’t cost me, or my family, a lot of money.

Frugal Senior

Dear Frugal, Cremation costs can vary widely. Depending on your location, the provider and the services you request, cremation can range anywhere from $500 to $7,500 or more. But that’s a lot cheaper than a full-service funeral and cemetery burial that averages nearly $11,000 today.

Here are some tips to help you get a good deal.

Shop Around Because prices can vary sharply by provider, the best way to get a good price on a simple “no frills” cremation is to call several funeral homes in your area (most funeral homes provide cremation services) and compare prices.

When you call, ask them specifically how much they charge for a “direct cremation,” which is the basic option and the least

Savvy Senior

expensive. With direct cremation, there’s no embalming, formal viewing or funeral. It only includes the essentials: picking up the body, completing the required paperwork, the cremation itself and providing ashes to the family.

If your family wants to have a memorial service, they can have it at home or your place of worship after the cremation, in the presence of your remains.

If you want additional services beyond what a direct cremation offers, ask the funeral home for an itemized price list that covers the other service costs, so you know exactly what you’re getting. All providers are required by law to provide this.

To locate nearby funeral homes, look in your local yellow pages, or Google

“cremation” or “funeral” followed by your city and state. You can also get good information online at Parting.com, which lets you compare prices from funeral providers in your area based on what you want.

Or, if you need more help contact your nearby funeral consumer alliance program (see Funerals. org/local-fca or call 802-865-8300 for contact information). These are volunteer groups located in most regions around the country that offer a wide range of information and prices on local funeral and cremation providers.

Pricey Urns The urn is an item you need to be aware of that can drive up cremation costs. Funeral home urns usually cost around $100 to $300, but you aren’t required to get one.

Most funeral homes initially place ashes in a plastic bag that is inserted into a thick cardboard box.

The box is all you need if you intend to have your ashes scattered. But if you want something to display, you can probably find a nice urn or comparable

container online. Walmart. com and Amazon.com for example, sells urns for under $50. Or, you may want to use an old cookie jar or container you have around the house instead of a traditional urn.

Free Cremation Another option you may want to consider that provides free cremation is to donate your body to a university medical facility.

After using your body for research, they will cremate your remains for free (some programs may charge a small fee to transport your body to their facility), and either bury or scatter your ashes in a local cemetery or return them to your family, usually within a year or two.

To find a medical school near you that accepts body donations, the University of Florida maintains a directory at Anatbd.acb. med.ufl.edu/usprograms.

I have a confession to make: I hate using canned biscuits.

It’s not that I don’t like how they taste. It’s not that I have some sort of environmental or moral reason I don’t like them. Plain and simple, I hate using canned biscuits, because every time I have to open a can, it scares the daylights out of me.

It doesn’t matter how ready I am for the “pop” of the container opening, it still seems to give me heart palpitations.

The problem is that I absolutely love biscuits.

Joey and I regularly enjoy having breakfast for dinner with a nice big plate of biscuits and sausage gravy, so I’ve always just put up with the terror (OK, maybe that’s a bit overdra-

Cousin Ruth’s Homemade Biscuits Ingredients 2 cups all-purpose flour 3 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 3/4 cups milk 1/4 cup shortening

Directions Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.

Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Cut in the shortening until it’s well combined (the texture will become a bit mealy).

Add milk and stir.

Turn the dough out onto a wellfloured board and knead until all of the ingredients are well-combined and the dough is soft and easy to roll. If it’s too sticky, add a bit more flour. If it’s tough and hard to work with, add a little more milk.

After the dough is kneaded into a soft ball, roll it out to about half an inch thickness.

Use a biscuit cutter or a drinking glass to cut out biscuits. Continue to roll out dough and cut it into biscuits until all the dough is used (if you have a weird little bit left over, go ahead and bake it. It won’t be pretty, but it’ll still be tasty.

That’s your “taste tester” piece!).

On Saturday, Sept.

7, the Haysville Flores del Sol chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution hosted a free genealogy workshop at the Haysville Community Library.

Lee Cox, KSDAR state registrar, and Dee Saddler, KSDAR state chair of the chapter development and revitalization committee, conducted an informative genealogy workshop.

Using only a four-generation pedigree chart of a new prospective member, they found several Revolutionary War patriots as well as some interesting history of her ancestors. Members, prospective members and guests from the Haysville Genealogy Group learned how

to navigate the NSDAR websites (both public and private) to search for information to complete an application to join the NSDAR. The National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution is a nonprofit, nonpolitical women’s volunteer service organization dedicated to promoting historic preservation, education and patriotism. Its members are descended from the patriots who won American independence during the Revolutionary War. For more information about NSDAR, contact the Flores del Sol chapter at floresdelsol@kansasdar. org, visit the national website at www.DAR.org or connect with DAR on social media at facebook. com/TodaysDAR, twitter. com/TodaysDAR and youtube.com/TodaysDAR.

Biscuits always rise to the occasion matic) of opening canned biscuits.

It’s always been a necessity, because, unfortunately, despite my love of biscuits, my attempts at making them have always fallen flat (Literally. Flat and a little tough.), so recently when I found myself without a tube of biscuits in the fridge and a craving for some breakfast for dinner, I was hesitant to try to go homemade, but the craving won out, and I went searching for a new biscuit recipe to try.

Lucky for my stomach, this time I was successful in my biscuit-making attempts, and Joey has officially banned the making of canned biscuits from here on out (which is perfectly fine with me).

The recipe I tried this time is supposedly one that a woman named Ruth used to make for the Texas State Fair every year, so I figured the whole state couldn’t be wrong. You can find the original recipe at http://www.bubblews. com/news/958224-cousin-ruthhomemade-biscuits-recipe, but I’ll warn you that whoever posted the recipe forgot to mention the baking powder, so make sure you add that in if you go to the Internet to make these.

Flores del Sol hosts genealogy workshop

Place the biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown.

My biscuits puffed up beautifully, and they were delicious both on their own and smothered in gravy. We did discover that they weren’t quite as good as leftovers a couple days later, though, so you may have to suffer through finishing off the batch the same day you make them. (Oh, what horrible suffering, huh?)

If you’re like me and have had bad luck with biscuits, I hope these turn out as well for you as they did for me. I was pleasantly surprised with how easy they were to make, too.

To be honest, it probably only added about 10 to 15 minutes to my overall routine over using the canned biscuits, and I didn’t once have to worry about scaring myself to death with the effort, and that, combined with how good these were, was well worth it.

Seniors From Page A1 “The crocheted hats we do for them go to wherever they find a need, such as cancer units, Rainbows United, or the VA Hospital,” Trow said.

Most Thursday morn-

ings, Guetschow and Trow head over to Cheney UMC to volunteer in that church’s prayer shawl ministry. They have been creating prayer shawls side by side since 2014.

“Prayer shawls are given to anyone who’s experiencing something life-changing: a divorce, an illness, cancer, grief,” Trow said.

“We sometimes celebrate a birth with a baby afghan. ... It lets a person know that somebody cares.”

Teresa Wiemeyer, who started the prayer shawl ministry in March 2006, said she is grateful for all the volunteer effort that goes into making shawls.

“It says that not only does God know what

people are going through, but we here at the church know,” Wiemeyer said.

“I’m blessed to be part of a group with these ladies.”

Both RSVP and the Cheney UMC ministry are in constant need of donated yarn. When someone’s yarn collection comes in as a donation, Trow and Guetschow like to spread

These prayer shawls will be given to anyone experiencing a lifechanging event.

Classes From Page A1 playoffs. They remained in the Ark Valley Chisholm Trail League Div. II, primarily playing teams from that division and in the AVCTL-Div. I. Those teams are primarily 6A and 5A schools, in the largest two classes in the state. The AVCTL’s next two divisions are populated mostly with 4A schools, some of which play in 3A for football.

No other local schools are changing classes for football, and there are no changes for other activities and sports. Our teams will see some of their league opponents change classes, although that will mostly impact things in the playoffs.

In the Central Plains League, where Cheney and Garden Plain play, rival Conway Springs is moving to 1A. During the 2018-19 season, Garden Plain and Conway Springs have remained district opponents in Class 2A. But under the realignment

that happened starting with the 2018 season, Cheney was in a district with teams like Clearwater, Andale, Haven and Collegiate. Cheney has played Conway Springs as part of their three-game non-district schedule at the start of the season.

In non-football events, Cheney stayed in 3A but lost its playoff rivalry against Garden Plain and Conway Springs. That played out well, as Cheney and Garden Plain – especially in volleyball and girls basketball – often faced off in substate tournaments for the chance to play at State.

The new football districts have not been

announced. Haven is moving to 2A and will fall out of Cheney’s district.

Kingman is moving to 2A, and likely will become a district foe for Garden Plain. Also in the CPL, Independent moves to 2A. Outside of football, Wichita Trinity drops from 4A to 3A, and Belle Plaine drops to 2A. At the other end, Campus High School won’t see many changes.

Hutchinson will move to 5A in football, replaced by Olathe West in 6A. Outside of football, Wichita Heights will move from 5A to 6A, but the Falcons are in a different league than the Colts.

Garden Plain claims title at Douglass

By Travis Mounts

The Times-Sentinel news@tsnews.com

The Garden Plain Owls, the No. 3 team in Class 2A, continued their march toward another State title by winning the Douglass tournament on Saturday.

The Owls rolled through pool play at Douglass, going 3-0. They had little issue in dispatching bigger schools Mulvane and Winfield. Hillsboro forced the Owls to extra points in the opening sets, although Garden

Plain still won in two sets.

Those wins pushed Garden Plain into the championship bracket, and the Owls needed just two sets to beat Augusta in the semifinal.

The Owls finally got a bit of a challenge in the championship, where the El Dorado Wildcats took the first set from Garden Plain. The Owls controlled the next two sets to get the win and claim the tournament title.

After the win, Alli Puetz and Natasha Dooley were named to the all-tournament team. Head

coach Gina Clark said she was proud of them, as well as setters Claire Clark and Madysen Zoglman and the improvements they have made during the season.

“They both really want to deliver good balls to their hitters and they want their hitters to perform well. They know they are an important part of the equation since they touch nearly every second ball,” she said. “Alli Puetz had a very good week last week both as a hitter and a primary passer. With her move to the OH position from the MH,

she has more responsibilities and she has steadily improved her performances each week.”

Garden Plain enters this week with a 16-1 record, with their only loss coming to Cheney at the Haven tournament.

Last Thursday, Garden Plain played a rare best-of-five dual against the Hesston Swathers, the No. 3 team in Class 3A. The Owls won the first, third and fourth sets to win the match.

“Our team served extraordinarily well as far as zones and toughness, and that was key in

disrupting the faster offense Hesston likes to play” Clark said.

“Our gym was rockin’ and having our student section involved in the match is always an awesome home-court advantage.”

The Owls started this week with home matches Tuesday against Chaparral and Independent.

Cardinals second at home tourney The Cheney Cardinals rolled through their home tournament’s early rounds, finding their way to the finals before falling to Trinity Academy and finishing second on the day.

The Cardinals swept through pool play with a trio of two-set victories, beating Haven, Pratt and Central Plains League foe Chaparral. In four of their six sets, the Cardinals allowed fewer than 20 points. Cheney was especially dominant against Chaparral, beating the Roadrunners 25-12, 25-14.

After winning their pools, the Cardinals took on Collegiate, the runner-up from the other pool. The Spartans put up more of a challenge, scoring 18 and 21 points, but Cheney still earned a two-set victory.

Trinity, the No. 4 team in Class 4A, had the upper hand in the finals, handing the Cardinals a 17-25, 21-25 defeat.

Kylee Scheer and Olivia Albers represented Cheney on the all-tournament team.

Cheney hosted Remington and Trinity Catholic on Sept. 24. Cheney dropped the first set to Trinity, but rallied to win in three sets. The Cardinals had little trouble beating Remington.

Cheney started this week with a Tuesday quad at Douglass, also facing Conway Springs and Kingman. Results were not available at press time.

Lions edge Tigers

The Goddard Lions edged the Eisenhower Tigers in a three-set match on Sept. 24, part of a triangular hosted by Goddard.

Both teams also played the Andover Trojans.

Eisenhower won the first set by four points, while Goddard came back in the second set for a 6-point win. The third set was back-and-forth and went to extra points, with the Lions winning 26-24.

The Lions also dropped the first set against the No. 10 Trojans, but rebounded for a three-set victory.

ranked foes.

EHS head coach Shelby Allee said the Tigers didn’t play well against Andover, but had a good showing against Goddard. In the third set, Goddard held a 24-18 lead, but Eisenhower rallied for six straight points to tie the set at 24.

Goddard scored the next two points to win the set and the match.

The Lions continued their trend of slow starts last Thursday, falling behind in matches against Great Bend and Hutchinson in a triangular hosted by Great Bend.

The Lions came back in those matches, picking up two more victories and extending their winning streak to 18 matches.

Goddard is 18-2 and on a streak after losing their first two matches of the

Late scores give Tigers win over Lions

By Travis Mounts

The Times-Sentinel news@tsnews.com

Two fourth-quarter touchdowns – including one with 1:13 left in the game – gave the Eisenhower Tigers a 21-20 win over the Goddard Lions last Friday at Goddard District Stadium.

It was a back-and-forth game between two teams that game into the contest with matching 2-1 records.

For the Tigers, the quarterback position has been a game of musical chairs while they wait for Collin Mackey to return from a summertime injury.

He returned on Friday, but the Tigers also turned to Chance Omli to take some snaps as the Eisenhower coaches wanted to make sure Mackey wasn’t handed too much in his first game of the season.

Omli got the scoring started with a 37-yard touchdown run that gave Eisenhower a 7-0 first-quarter lead.

Goddard’s quarterback Kyler Semrad found the end zone later in the quarter with his own touchdown run, tying the game at 7.

Goddard took over the second quarter, starting with a big special teams play. An Eisenhower drive stalled out deep in Goddard territory, so the Tigers lined up for a go-ahead field goal. The kick was blocked by Kade Schulz, and the Lions’ Nalell Kapten picked up

the ball and returned it for a touchdown and a 14-7 lead.

“That took the wind out of our sails,” said Eisenhower head coach Darrin Fisher. Eisenhower then went three-and-out, giving Goddard the chance for a second quick score.

Goddard found the end zone again with 8 seconds left in the half. A trick play put the Lions into the red zone, and Semrad found Blake Mitchell for a touchdown pass. The Lions did not get the point-after kick thanks to a block by the Tigers’ Seth Volker, but went into the locker room with a 20-7 lead.

The game changed after the break. Goddard’s Semrad was held out of the game after halftime for medical reasons. It happened just before the second-half kickoff.

The Lions struggled to adapt, and Eisenhower benefited with an interception and a fumble recovery.

“Two lost turnovers will lose it for you,” said Goddard head coach Tommy Beason.

The score remained that way until late in the fourth quarter, when the Tigers put together back-to-back scoring drives. As the game went on, Mackey was entrusted with the Tigers’ offense, and he didn’t disappoint with two late scores.

The first came on a touchdown pass from Omli to Jordan Vincent,

who led all EHS receivers with seven catches and 88 yards. That pulled the Tigers to within a score at 20-14.

With 1:13 to play, Omli connected with Mason Turney on a 5-yard scoring play, and with a good point-after kick, the Tigers took a 21-20 lead.

“When he got comfortable, that’s when things started clicking,” Fisher said. “Goddard is extremely well coached and they play tough football.”

It was the type of game where any play could change the game, and that was the case with Volker’s blocked kick.

“We didn’t know how critical that would be. We tell our guys you have

to make a play on every snap,” Fisher said.

Beason felt the Lions had the game in hand at halftime.

“Everything was going our way,” he said. The Lions also lost starting linebacker Taygen Bantrz during the game. “It was a different game after halftime. You could feel it turn. ...It was a really fun game, highly competitive.

It’s heartbreaking for our kids.”

The Lions had three one-point games in 2018 – two in overtime – and won two of them.

“One-point heartbreaking games are our territory. We were on the wrong end of this one,” he said.

The Lions, now 2-2,

turn their attention to the Maize Eagles, who will host Friday’s contest.

Maize is having another strong season. The Eagles are 4-0, and have won games by an average of 40.5 points per game.

Maize won at Goddard a year ago.

“They beat us up at home last year,” Beason said. Last year, the Lions were undefeated as well.

“A lot of stress of us being undefeated is out of the way. We’re worrying about us. We need to take care of things on our end.

Last week’s loss was the first time Goddard has lost consecutive games since the 2015 season.

The Tigers haven’t been above .500 since the 2015

season. They will host Arkansas City on homecoming this Friday. Even though the Bulldogs are 0-4, Fisher said Eisenhwoer needs to be ready to play.

“They’re tough up front on offense and defense,” he said, noting that Arkansas City had a halftime lead at undefeated Maize South last week.

Fisher does not have specific goals in mind for the 3-1 Tigers.

“My expectations are to get better with each game.

We want to be playing our best football in game 9,” he said.

Goddard kicks off at Maize at 7 p.m., and Eisenhower faces Arkansas City at 7 p.m.

Big first quarter powers Owls to 4-0

By Travis Mounts

The Times-Sentinel news@tsnews.com

Most of the drama in Garden Plain on Friday night was about who would be homecoming queen and king. As for the Owls football game against the Remington Broncos, a 35-point first quarter eliminated all drama from the game.

Garden Plain improved its record to 4-0 with a 6114 win, and the Owls won their first district game of the 2019 season. The entire first half belonged to the Owls, who led 55-0 at halftime. Remington did manage a pair of second-half touchdowns, with another Garden Plain score sandwiched in between.

The Owls found all kinds of ways to score in the first half, although most of them involved the feet of Matt Pauly. He ran for touchdowns of 35, 30, 40 and 59 yards. Jeb

Nowak broke free for a 60-yard score, the longest touchdown run of the game.

Pauly threw for a pair of scores. The first was to Jordan Thomas for a 23yard touchdown, giving Garden Plain a 14-0 lead less than three minutes into the game. They connected again on the Owls’ next drive, this time on a 7-yard touchdown pass.

The Owls added a special teams score on a blocked punt that was returned for a touchdown

by Zac Miranowski.

Will Tice ran 10 yards for the Owls’ second-half score.

Most of the Owls 437 yards came on the ground, where they gained 384. Pauly led all runners with 173, Nowak had 63, and Blake Long added 48. Tranden Daerr, John Nowak, Kade Rockers, John Stuhlsatz, Will Tice, Thane Stuhlsatz, Kaden Pauly and Jeremiah Nowak all ran for

positive yards.

Thomas was the Owls’ top receiver with 30 yards, and Trey Smith and Francis Stuhlsatz also had catches. Pauly and Tice combined to go 5-for-8 passing, for 53 yards.

The defense held Remington to 121 total yards.

In addition to Miranowski’s fumble recovery, Anthony Hays picked off a pass.

Garden Plain is 1-0 in Class 2A District 6, as

are Conway Springs and Chaparral. All three teams had big wins, gaining the maximum 21 points in district standings.

This Friday, the Owls head to Hutchinson to face the Trinity Catholic Celt-

ics. That’s where the Owls’ 2018 season ended in a close battle. At 2-2, Trinity has as many losses already as they did all of last year.

Trinity lost at home last week, falling to Conway Springs 43-8.

Campus falls in two-day game in Salina

By Travis Mounts

The Times-Sentinel news@tsnews.com

The Campus Colts football team had a good start at Salina South on Friday, but a rough – and weird – finish as the Colts lost 49-19 in a game played over two days.

Campus scored the game’s first two touchdowns, and held a 12-0 lead in the second quarter in Salina on Friday night.

But the South Cougars stormed back with three touchdowns before halftime for a 21-12 lead over the Colts at the break.

And then the real storms moved in. A lightning delay eventually led to a postponement of the second half, and the teams picked up their game at noon Saturday.

South dominated the second half of the game, outscoring the Colts 28-7

in the final two quarters.

Campus took the early lead with a 64-yard, 10play drive that culminated in a 24-yard Corbin Williams touchdown run.

South committed four penalties on the drive. In the second quarter, Nathan Bowen capped a 66yard, 11-play drive with a 1-yard touchdown run.

The Colts came up short on two-point conversions after both scores.

The Colts were driving again after that, but a South interception short-circuited that drive and gave the Cougars the spark they needed to come back and grab the halftime lead.

Campus head coach Jamie Cruce said the Colts did not respond well to that adversity.

“Coaching-wise, I don’t think we prepared the kids well,” he said. Special teams were a problem

throughout the game, and helped turn things in South’s favor.

“It’s a tough game. We have to keep the kids positive,” Cruce said. “We’ve got some good kids.

They’re working hard, they’re getting better. But we have a small margin of error.”

He said the delay impacted both teams.

Campus had an extra three hours or so on the bus, but Cruce refused to let that be an excuse.

Now the Colts’ focus turns to the other Salina team, the Central Mustangs. Central comes to Haysville this Friday for the Colts’ homecoming game. Central beat South 17-7 a couple of weeks ago.

“If we have a good week of practice, we’ll have a good shot of winning,” Cruce said.

Kickoff is at 7 p.m.

Big plays power Cheney to district win

Clearwater plays without key offensive weapon

By Travis Mounts

The Times-Sentinel news@tsnews.com

Somewhere between 10:30 and 11 a.m. last Friday, the Clearwater Indians learned their second-year starting quarterback Tanner Cash – the lynchpin of the Indians’ offense – was ruled out of the game against the Cheney Cardinals because of a broken leg.

The weight of that news and no time to prepare put the Indians in a tough spot against the Cardinals, who have been flying high after two impressive wins to wrap up the non-district schedule.

The result was a 4810 Cheney victory. The Cardinals now have three straight wins where they have outscored their opponents by a combined score of 129-32, an average margin of victory of 43 points. Cheney has to be considered a serious threat to Andale and Collegiate, the preseason picks to come out on top of 3A District 6.

For Clearwater, the goal is to regroup and maintain the promise of a 3-0 start to this season. Even without Cash, the Indians have most of the starters from last year’s team that placed third in the district and went to the playoffs.

The Indians looked good at the start of the game. They forced Cheney into a three-and-out on the game’s opening drive, thanks in part to a thirddown penalty on the Cardinals. With Trace Tjaden moving from tight end to quarterback, the Indians drove to the Cheney 14yard line before settling for a field goal and a 3-0 lead.

Cheney’s quick-strike capability came into play on the ensuing drive. A 45-yard pass from Zac Block to Luke Grace put the Cardinals on the Clearwater 22. Three plays later, Riley Petz ran in for a 5-yard score and a 7-3 Cheney lead as the first quarter ended.

Luke Grace made his presence known on Clearwater’s next drive, picking off Tjaden on the third play of the drive. But the Indians’ defense held and forced Cheney to punt.

From there, everything broke in Cheney’s favor.

After a short Clearwater punt gave Cheney the ball in Indians territory, the Cardinals scored on a 38-yard pass to Petz, who broke one tackle and juked another defender along the right sideline to get into the end zone. That put Cheney up 13-3.

Clearwater’s next possession consisted of a penalty, an incomplete pass, and a sack that put the Indians deep in their own territory.

On third-and-25, Cheney’s Rylan Doshier hit Tjaden as he was getting ready to throw, causing a fumble that Zane Smith recovered for a touchdown.

On the second play of Clearwater’s next drive, Petz picked off a pass and returned it for another defensive touchdown.

The gave the Cardinals 19 points in less than two minutes, and they led 26-3 at halftime.

In the third quarter, Cheney scored on touchdown passes of 79 yards and 76 yards, and in the fourth added an 83-yard rushing score and a safety to lead 48-3.

ABOVE: The Indians’ Trace Tjaden fights for extra yards on a run as the Cardinals’ Riley Petz tries to pull him down.

Clearwater did find the end zone in the game’s closing moments.

“I was really impressed with our defense and the way our defensive line and linebackers went after the run,” said Cheney head coach Shelby Wehrman.

He said Clearwater has good receivers who can run, and that Cheney did not have any busted coverages. “That was an imiportant part of our game.”

Clearwater head coach Jeremy Scheufler said losing Cash the day of the game was an emotional blow.

“He’s one of the best football players in this area, a leader. You feel for him,” he said.

Cash had accounted for about 1200 yards total offense and 10 touchdowns this season. He likely got injured in the fourth quarter of the Mulvane game, and played the entire Wellington game hurt.

Scheufler said the Indians still have high expectations for the season.

“We’re still a good football team. Trace did some good things,” he said. It does hurt that Tjaden, one of the best tight ends in the area, is out of his position. But the Indians are good on defense and have a strong receiving corps, and Scheufler said Tjaden showed show positives despite having taken only about 20 snaps the entire week leading up to Friday’s game.

“We’ll be much better this week. Trace will have a week to prepare. He’s got a good arm, he’s big and can run,” Scheufler said.

“We just missed on a couple possible touchdowns.”

He said the Indians need to eliminate mistakes, such as their four turnovers and blocked punt. They also hope to have fullback Brock Toothaker healthy in time for next week’s game.

For Cheney’s Grace, the win over Clearwater was a breakout game.

“He’s developing confidence. He’s an up-and-

coming guy,” Wehrman said. Petz continues to make game-changing plays on both sides of the ball. And the two-quarterback system is working for the Cardinals, with Block and Harrison Voth.

Block is taking more of the snaps now, but both are on the field at the same time, throwing passes to and catching passes from one another.

“They both know their roles. They’re both good receivers and both good quarterbacks. They’re developing as leaders,” Wehrman said.

The Cardinals will face a tough test this Friday when they host the Collegiate Spartans on homecoming night.

The Spartans are 4-0, and trounced Wichita Trinity 58-0 in their district opener last week. Collegiate is outscoring its opponents by an average of 31 points per game.

“They have good beef up front,” Wehrman said about the Spartans

offensive line. “We’ll need to stand up to them and stop their running backs.

They’re a dangerous team.”

Look for Cheney to continue its aerial attack.

Wehrman wants the Cardinals to improve at running between the tackles, and feels that the blocking is just about there to accomplish that goal.

It will be homecoming night in Clearwater, too, as the Indians host Haven. The Wildcats had a down season in 2018, winning just two games.

They are 2-2 this season, with former Cheney and Kansas State player Drew Thalmann sharing coaching duties, although Haven lost 52-6 at Andale last week.

Scheufler looks forward to getting back on the field.

“We’re not feeling sorry for ourselves. We’re planning on some more wins this season,” he said.

Both games kick off at 7 p.m.

Fall festivals make for great community connections This weekend, Kim and I will have another Fall Festival date. We’ll be taking part in the Goddard Fall Festival, taking pictures through the day Saturday.

These community festivals – and more than half of the communities we cover have them – ­ are a fantastic opportunity for everyone involved to really feel like a part of their community. From the volunteers who make the events possible to the visitors who come and enjoy themselves, it’s great to be involved.

Goddard’s Fall Festival has been going strong for decades, and most of the fall festivals in our area have similarly long histories. These festivals grew out of a community’s desire to celebrate its successes…and have a fun weekend off from the dayto-day chores of life.

Over the years, these events have continued to showcase the best our communities have to offer, and serve as an opportunity for visitors to be welcomed into the community – even if just for a day.

In my position in our local communities, the local newspaper publisher is a familiar face. Rarely can Kim and I go out on the town, so to speak, without being recognized and called upon to engage in a friendly (usually) conversation.

When Kim and I first started dating, this was something I had to make sure she was comfortable with in our relationship.

So many times over the years she has commented, “We can’t go anywhere without being recognized.”

This is so true. But luckily for me, Kim has taken that part of our partnership in stride, and just smiles and plays along as yet another interaction with one of our readers unfolds.

Last Saturday, our day centered around attending the annual Conway Springs Fall Fest. It’s an event we look forward to because of the community connections we know we’ll revisit.

And sure enough, when we got to Spring Avenue in downtown Conway Springs, all was right with

the world. The pouring rain we had driven through was over, and people were claiming their spots along the parade route.

The first person we saw was Brad Cline, the fourth generation of the Cline family that had owned the local newspaper for many years. I purchased the paper from the Cline family several years ago, and now Brad is remodeling the old newspaper building into a workspace for himself and some office spaces.

After a tour of Brad’s project and the parade, Kim and I were off to Central Park, where the party was kicking into high gear.

We lined up for lunch, and I wandered off to snap some more pictures.

While I was gone, a gentleman in front of Kim asked her who she was and where she was from, since he didn’t recognize her.

“Do you recognize this guy?” she asked when I returned.

“Sure,” he said. “I see his picture in the newspaper.

“Well, I’m with him,” Kim replied.

The rest of the day, Kim got her share of recognition from friends around the community who know her about as well as they know me. We helped out with the Chamber of Commerce booth where we knew everyone and everyone knew us.

Some of the arts and crafts vendors knew us as well as we did a little shopping, and that was nice, too. We run in some of the same event circles with the vendors, so we’re bound to see each other eventually.

All in all, it’s been a great run of community fall festivals this year. But wait…it’s not over just yet.

Mark your calendars for Haysville’s Fall Festival in two weeks.

And maybe we’ll see you there.

For this ‘influencer dog,’ it’s all in the eyes

I’ve written a little bit about my adventures as a dog grandparent.

Simba is the Boston Terrier belong to my oldest son, Isaac, and the dog has been mentioned in my column enough that we received requests to mention the dog more.

The dog is a semi-regular visitor to my house.

Simba loves rides, and will tag along with Isaac when he comes home to visit me as well as his mom and step-dad. Like many grandparent relationships, the little one frequently gets left for a night or a weekend. For example, my parents kept my brother’s three kids last Saturday. On Friday, I kept my son’s dog.

(I’m not saying grandkids and granddogs are on the same level...but there are LOTS of similarities).

Isaac shares the dog a lot through social media posts, and I do the same when Simba visits me.

Combine that with occasional newspaper mentions, and the dog has a bit of a following as well as a bit of notoriety,

Random Thoughts

Travis Mounts | Managing Editor

in large part due to his Marty Feldman-like eyeballs.

Kids, just Google “Marty Feldman.” And then go watch Mel Brooks’ “Young Frankenstein.” You’re welcome.

So on Saturday night, Isaac and I (but not the dog) were sitting at Blues, Brews and Barbecue, a great event hosted by the fine folks at the Newton Now newspaper. A mutual friend commented on Facebook that Simba that needed his own page.

Well...how many of life’s best ideas come from a smart-alecky comment and a beer or two? In my world, that would be most great ideas.

And so, I’m proud to introduce the Facebook page “Simba The Butt-Ugly Influencer Dog.” This might be just a lark

that lasts a couple of weeks.

But Grumpy Cat earned millions, so who knows?

So far, it’s mostly been Isaac posting pictures of Simba just being himself, and me adding a few posts that tend to reflect my warped sense of humor. Isaac has to let me stay involved if he expects me to continue being his dog sitter.

And before anybody thinks I’m being mean for calling the dog “butt-ugly,” please understand it’s just because he is.

I’m kidding here, at least a bit. He’s actually a good looking dog, but his eyes

are...unique. A few people, my mother included, find the dog a bit hard to look at.

But I’ve always had a soft spot for “ugly-cute” animals.

I felt the same way about our late basset hound, Maggie. It’s the old “only a face a mother could love” theory.

So if you’ve found yourself oddly curious about the odd-looking dog, or if you’re just messing around on social media at work instead of doing something productive, go give the page a like.

You could be getting in on the ground floor of the next social media phenomenon.

October is National Clergy Appreciation Month

Pastors and their families play a significant role in the local churches and their community. Please help celebrate Clergy Appreciation Month by reaching out to your local Ministerial Families with a phone call, a text, an email, a Facebook message, a shout out, or just a pat-on-the-back.
