Wants to go for 2012 referendum, work on community relations BY PAUL GROESSEL SUN NEWSPAPERS

When she came home from New York, where she works in publishing, she asked her dad where he kept all those basketball stories. There might be a few around, he said.

The Eden Prairie School Board has decided not to go out for any referendum this year after all. It wants to get an early start on a 2012 referendum. A 2011 referendum could have brought approximately $4 million per year from voter-approved tax increase. The school board changed its mind during a meeting Tuesday, Aug. 23, based on recent indicators of economic decline, a financial analysis that says the district may not be in as deep a financial hole as they initially projected and a desire to spend more time reaching out to community members. That Aug. 23 meeting also followed previous school board meeting discussions that had indicated they were behind schedule compared to most referendum campaign planning. The school board had voted

Fight back against heart disease

Superintendent transition process continues at Eden Prairie Public Schools Three district employees hold superintendent’s license; board seeks second ‘mutual separation’ legal opinion BY PAUL GROESSEL • SUN NEWSPAPERS

The Eden Prairie School District will continue the superintendent transition process possibly with a consultant and most likely with a second opinion from a lawyer. The school board recently decided to seek a second opinion regarding a mutual separation with Supt. Melissa Krull – who it turns out is not the only person in the district with a superintendent’s license. Since Krull announced in late July that this would be her last school year with the district, it had been unclear if anyone other than Krull had a license. There are three people in the district, including Krull, who have a superintendent’s license, according to interim Communications Director Nancy Kracke. The other two staff members with are Janet Pladson, elementary school director of teaching and learning, and Eden Prairie High School Associate Principal Tim Quick. The superintendent transition process is in the early stages. The school board expects to soon have a discussion about hiring a search firm to help look for qualified candidates. The search process could months and basic services from a search from could cost $15,000-$20,000, said Minnesota School Board Association’s Director of School Board Services Sandy Gundlach. She told the school board that during an Aug. 16 workshop, when she also said the law is pretty clear regard-

ing superintendent licensing, and even applies to an interim superintendent. Under state law, a school district with a secondary high school must have a state-licensed superintendent at the helm, she said. After that meeting, the Minnesota Department of Education’s Director of Educator Licensing Richard Wassen said that there is a little flexibility for a school board in a tight spot, as long as it makes clear that it’s doing what it can to get comply with the law. “Just by the nature of what superintendents do … often times, vacancies come up sort of suddenly, and the board has to figure out what to do,” Wassen said. The Board of School Administrators grants superintendent licensures and variances for temporary superintendent qualifications under certain circumstances, Wassen said. Even though Krull indicated she would finish out the 2011-2012 school year, the last of her three-year contract, the school board is looking into Krull’s interest in a “mutual separation” of her contract. The board initially voted to gauge Krull’s interest during an Aug. 9 special meeting. It had their legal representation (law firm Kennedy and Graven) test Krull’s interest in a mutual split then, but during the Aug. 23 meeting, the school board decided to seek input from a second lawyer. Board members said this is an important matter, and it’s good to have a second opinion and input about the separation process. It’s unclear what the initial opinion or communication from Kennedy and Graven was. Next, the board will identify possible law firms that can provide input about the separation process and discuss the possibility of using an executive search firm.

Bloomington art show honors 40 years of education BY MIKE HANKS • SUN NEWSPAPERS An art show that is also a belated anniversary celebration opens today in Bloomington. “On the Training of Painters: The Atelier’s Past and Present” is actually a two-venue showcase paying homage to the history of a Minneapolis art school. The show features an exhibition of paintings and drawings at the Bloomington Center for the Arts. By mid-September the Atelier Studio Program of Fine Arts will exhibit additional works at its Minneapolis school. The joint exhibit is intended to honor the school’s founder and its 40th anniversary, albeit two years after the fact. Atelier, French for workshop, is a style of painting that is distinguished by its teacher-student relationship, teaching fine draftsmanship and painting skills by melding formal academic training with the influence of French impressionists. The Atelier traces its lineage to 1748, and is

honoring its founder Richard Lack through the exhibition. Lack founded the school in 1969 as Atelier Lack in Uptown Minneapolis. He retired in 1992, but the school continued as the Atelier Studio Program of Fine Arts, according to codirector Dale Redpath, who studied under Lack. Today the school has a full-time fouryear program and has part-time students who take evening classes at the school, Redpath explained. “It has really been a hub for the realist movement in the country,” she said. Pieces by former graduates and Lack will be on display, as well as Lack’s educational predecessors, William McGregor Paxton and R.H. Ives Gammell. Works of Paxton, who died in 1941, are difficult to obtain, but the Atelier was able to obtain one piece on loan for the exhibition, according to Redpath. Approximately 80 ART: TO PAGE 5

State university expands Edina presence MSU-Mankato offers graduate, undergraduate and certificate program at 7700 France Ave. S. BY KATIE MINTZ • SUN NEWSPAPERS The Edina School District is not the only public institution in the city seeing a boost in enrollment. Minnesota State University, Mankato’s Edina location, 7700 France Ave. S., will soon double its space to 27,000 square feet in the office building to meet growing demand. The fourth year of classes began Monday, Aug. 22, at the school, which offers degree and non-degree programs from graduate studies to customized training for area businesses. Bob Hoffman, vice president of Strategic Business, Education and Regional Partnerships for Minnesota State University, Mankato, said the Twin Cities location is key to serving students in today’s economy. “People need convenience, they need flexibility, and they can’t drive to

Mankato or Winona,” he said. “You’ve got to bring it to the learner and that’s what we’re trying to do.” MSU-Mankato in Edina offers several master’s degree programs, bachelor degree completion and licensure and certificate programs. About 75 percent of the 2,590 students enrolled in classes there this fall, spring and summer are in graduate programs. In the new job climate, Ann Goebel, director of Twin Cities partnerships, said the master’s degree is the new bachelor’s degree, and students are responding. “That’s the student we’re finding needs us the most right now,” Goebel said. The leading programs in Edina are the master of business administration and master of public administration. MSU-Mankato also offers master’s degrees in education, nursing, engineering and more. Beginning this fall, it is offering its first doctorate of educational leadership to a full class. Next fall the campus will add a doctorate of nursing practice. “Our other mission is undergraduate degree completion,” Goebel said. Students can finish their last two

years of a bachelor’s degree after attending community college or even a couple classes if they left a four-year college a few credits shy of graduating. MSUMankato also works in partnership with other Minnesota State Colleges and Universities schools on degree completion. For the last several years, MSUMankato faculty has taught upper level courses on the Normandale Community College campus in Bloomington and at Mesabi Range Community and Technical College in Virginia, Minn. Becky Copper-Glenz, dean for the College of Extended Learning for MSUMankato, said it’s a part of making learning convenient. “These are non-traditional students, so a lot of times they’re working adults. They have families. They have full-time jobs,” Copper-Glenz said. In Edina, many courses are a blend of online and classroom learning. Two rooms feature real-time video conferencing connecting students with classes offered only in Mankato. MSU-Mankato also has about 30 programs available online only. The busiest hours in Edina are 3-10 p.m. With proximity to a vibrant business corridor in Edina and the entire metro,

abilities, while raising awareness and support for programs and services of Midwest Special Services that are vital to their success. Event participants can meet the Minnesota Roller Girls, Miss Wheelchair Minnesota Jenni Taylor and Miss Minnesota 2011 Natalie Davis. Walkers or rollers can enjoy interactive gaming units by Gamin

Ride and music and entertainment from an Elvis impersonator. Attendees can also support Midwest Special Services by purchasing locally created works of art. Celebration Stations will be found along the walkway to encourage and cheer on walkers and rollers as they make their way around the rotunda. Individuals or teams interested in

forming strategic partnerships is also a focus, said Hoffman. The Edina location can work with companies to create nocredit programs that address specific needs, like leadership training, for its employees. “It’s a great location,” Hoffman said “It avails us to a lot of business, industry, government and nonprofit requests of enhancement of skills, development of new skills and completion of degrees.” Goebel said MSU-Mankato in Edina recently finishing working with Dakota County Technical College in Rosemount to train employees of Apple Valleybased Uponor through a Minnesota Job Skills Grant. Goebel, who previously worked as part of Mankato’s manufacturing engineering faculty, instructed the employees in lean manufacturing, a practice that helps identify and reduce waste that doesn’t add value to the final product. She said more partnerships are expected as the school grows. “As we hear the needs from business and industry we can create professional development opportunities to meet lifelong learning needs,” Copper-Glenz said.

Art FROM PAGE 3 artists will be represented by the more than 125 paintings and drawings in the exhibition. Although it was envisioned as an anniversary show in 2009, collecting artwork and compiling historical information about the school was a slow process that took longer than planned, she noted. In addition to showcasing artwork, the exhibition will illustrate the specific steps taken by Atelier artists when rendering their realistic drawings and paintings. A catalog commemorating the exhibition’s artwork and detailing the Atelier’s history will be available for purchase at both exhibition locations, Redpath said. An opening reception at the Bloomington Center for the Arts is 6-8 p.m. tonight, Sept. 1, at 1800 W. Old Shakopee Road.

We’re hosting an Eden Prairie School Board candidate forum The Eden Prairie SunCurrent and Eden Prairiebased Fox 9 News will host an Eden Prairie School Board debate before the Nov. 8 election. The point of the forum is to raise the questions you want to hear. What better way to do that than letting you ask? You have been following the Eden Prairie School District; there are things you want to know from the candidates and things you think the community should know. All you have to do is send

...But you’re asking the questions your questions before you come hear their answers. With a lot going on in the school district and a variety of candidates, there is plenty to ask. So, include as many questions as you like. With several candidates, so many topics and limited forum time, we unfortunately can’t get to everyone’s question. We won’t ask attacking questions or those of a person-

al nature, and we may also edit questions as necessary. Our goal is to edit as little as possible while ensuring it’s informative and fair. We’re finalizing the forum plans, and we will post time, date and location as soon as we settle the last details. In the meantime, please, tell us what you want to know and send us your questions. We look forward to hearing from you.

Recycling while on the go BY ANGIE TIMMONS GUEST COLUMNIST It’s more popular than ever for Minnesotans to recycle at home, but do you keep it going while you’re traveling or out and about? Many of us take road trips, attend family get-togethers, and go on vacation during the last few weeks of summer, and it’s important to find ways to recycle along the way. It can be surprising how much waste one person can produce when traveling, but implementing a few simple things to reduce waste and conserve resources will minimize your environmental footprint. Here are some easy things you can do to make a difference: — If possible, use public transportation while traveling, or carpool with others who are going to the same destination. — Use electronic tickets

whenever possible to avoid paper waste. — If you don’t see recycling bins at your destination, ask the person or company in charge. Hopefully, a friendly suggestion will encourage them to implement a program. — Bring a bag for your own recycling. If you’re spending the day traveling or staying somewhere you know won’t provide recycling opportunities, pack a bag for your recyclable items and recycle them when you get home. — Keep an eye out for recycling bins along your route. Gas stations, rest areas and parks often have a place you can deposit your recycling rather than hauling it all the way home. — As you shop for groceries and supplies for your trip, look for environmentally-friendly packaging and pack items in reusable containers.

— If you’re hosting a gettogether away from home, be sure to put out paper bags or containers for recycling near the trash bin and label them clearly. Hopefully, your guests will follow your lead and do the sorting for you. — Choose or encourage the use of reusable or recyclable materials (cups, plates, utensils, etc.) in all your activities. With a little forethought, it’s easy to make it a habit to recycle on the go and the results are worth it to protect the environment. Think about what you can do to help while enjoying your summer celebrations, vacations and travels.

FROM PAGE 1 To find more, she went to the library, found all the old articles, keypunched, compiled and edited them. She then “shepherded this thing through” like a good point guard would any offense, Shelby said. The book is about life, people, family and dedication, and it will take readers on “a roller coaster of emotions,” Shelby said. Shelby has been involved in basketball as a player, coach and through other activities since 1960. He was inducted into Indiana’s Delaware County Athletic

Hall of Fame in 2003. For his broadcast work, Shelby has won national and international awards for investigative journalism, some of which include three National Emmys and two George Foster Peabody awards.

Eden Prairie schools part of ‘No Shots, No School’ program Eden Prairie School District is one of 25 that are taking part in the “No Shots, No School” immunization program. The immunization program provides a barrier-free service and enhanced access to children needing immunizations. Partnering school districts agree to communicate immunization requirements to families in their district and encourage students to see a primary care provider early to make sure immunizations are given and documented before the start of school. If a child is unable to receive

required vaccinations, partnering clinics will provide immunizations at no cost to families through Sept. 17.

Participating Eden Prairie clinics • All About Children Pediatrics Where: 12200 Middleset Road, Ste. 100. Info: 952-943-8200 • Park Nicollet Clinic – Prairie Center Where: 8455 Flying Cloud Drive Info: 952-993-7400 • Southdale Pediatrics Where: 18315 Cascade Drive, Ste. 170 Info: 952-278-6939 • South Lake Pediatrics Where: 800 Prairie Center Drive, Ste. 120. Info: 952-401-8300 Immunizations are a child’s best defense against potentially life-threatening diseases, such as measles, polio and chickenpox.

Minnesota law requires written proof that children receive all vaccinations, have a medical exemption – or parents must file a legal exemption saying they object to the vaccinations – before students can attend class. Through its Healthy Community Initiative, Park Nicollet Foundation partners with 25 school districts and 38 health care organizations and independent clinics throughout the Twin Cities to meet immunization requirements through the program. Park Nicollet is a founding member of No Shots, No School, now in its 15th year. The program also recognizes the need for each family to have a “medical” home. Partnering clinics are encouraged to build relationships with new patients in order to provide routine, primary care to children and their families. When receiving immunizations, a parent or legal guardian must accompany children younger than 18 years of age. Parents should bring a copy of the child’s past immunization records and are asked to call ahead if a clinic is not designated as a “walk-in” clinic. Info: parknicollet.com/foundation.

Right Way Painting Solutions After one of the most brutal winters we have encountered in the past 30 years, we have all found things that need repair or replacement on our homes. Many of us have needed to put off work being done to our homes do to economic hard times. Many of us also put off projects to save money in case things got worse. Our home values have gone down which makes it hard to even think about selling our homes. The reality is that we have to keep our property in good shape to maintain our values. Painting the exterior of our homes is by far the best value to preserving our wood surfaces and windows. We can also dramatically change the appearance of the inside of our homes by updating colors. Painting woodwork is a very affordable option compared to replacing old trim around our homes. In many older homes our windows are still good, but the old stain and varnish are not holding up any more. You can save thousands of dollars by painting these windows verses replacing windows. Updating your

basement family room can also be as easy as painting the paneling. I’m Paul Moore from Rightway Painting Solutions. I’ve been in the painting business for over 20 years. Being a former Shop Teacher, I have a good background in finishing and wood replacement. We do both residential and commercial painting. We do work for several Town Home Associations, Nursing Homes and Residential Properties. We give our customers great value by being able to not just paint. We replace or repair wood, repair and reglaze older windows and reside areas that need replacement. We also repair decks and re stain decks. On the inside we repair walls, remove wallpaper, enamel wood work and paint paneling. We offer a 2 year labor warrantee on our labor, provide references and we would be happy to give you a free estimate. For all of your painting needs give us a call at 612-8392239.

Hennepin County looks to continue success of truancy program About 200 schools participated in program in its first year BY MARC INGBER • SUN NEWSPAPERS Pleased with the success of its initial efforts to combat truancy, the Hennepin County Attorney’s Office will conduct its be@school program for a second full school year beginning this month. The program is designed to use all of the social services and legal tools available in the county to make sure students are in school, every day and on time. In its first year, 199 of the 256 schools in Hennepin County that participated in a study reported using at least some element of the be@school program. “History has shown us that if you don’t get to school, you don’t get an education,” Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman said.

“And if you don’t get an education, you don’t get a job. And then we are likely to see too much of you in the criminal justice system or the social welfare system. And I don’t like either option.” The be@school program requires schools to send a letter and make phone calls to a student’s parents when unexcused absences begin piling up. At six unexcused absences, the school refers the child to the program and a parent group meeting is called with officials from the school, attorney’s office and possibly social service groups. Be@school coordinator Tamiko Thomas said the meetings were designed to be a proactive approach to the problem and teach the families about educational neglect and truancy. “It depends on each case, but mostly it’s an opportunity for them to receive support and get education TRUANCY: TO NEXT PAGE

Truancy FROM PREVIOUS PAGE on what the law says about education attendance,” she said. “Families do find the meetings to be helpful.” If more absences occur, the pressure is ratcheted up, including filing of educational neglect or truancy reports. There are various reasons why students miss school frequently, Freeman said. Barriers can include transporta-

tion problems or a lack of good clothes. Sometimes children are asked to baby-sit their younger siblings while their parents are at work. One of the goals of be@school is to refer families to social service agencies that can help alleviate these types of problems. Freeman said 43 percent of elementary students with six to 12 unexcused absences had no more after 90 days in the program. In a survey, 82 percent of staff members whose schools participated believed be@school was effective in

cutting truancy and unexcused absences. State law requires students to be in school until they are 18 – they can be officially withdrawn with parent consent if they are 16 or older. Be@school is offered to every school in Hennepin County – most schools that participate have a staff member whose duty is to be in charge of the program at the site. Thomas said it was a “more innovative approach to addressing a lack of school attendance. “It’s clarifying the expectations for families.”

Eden Prairie Sun-Current – Thursday, Sept. 1, 2011 – www.minnlocal.com

Edythe L. Pizzala Edythe L. Pizzala, died at Hillcrest of Wayzata, Wayzata, Minn. on August 22, 2011 – four years after the death of her beloved and handsome husband of 65 years, George E. Pizzala. A resident of Bloomington, Minn. for more than 53 years, Edythe was born August 12, 1923 in Fresno, Calif. to George and Anna Eurich. Edythe fondly remembered her early years growing up on an orchard farm with her 22 siblings and half-siblings. She graduated Roosevelt High School, Fresno, Calif. in 1940. Edythe had a beautiful singing voice and, along with her sisters, performed live and on the radio on many occasions. Edythe met her husband George in 1942 and it was love at first sight. They married 3 days later in Reno, Nevada. Thereafter, Edythe lived the life of an Army wife, following George to many duty stations around the world, including Japan and Europe. While stationed in Germany, Edythe organized the first Boy Scout Troop there for American military families, as well as for her own two young sons at the time, Dennis and Keith. Edythe and George settled in Bloomington, Minn. in the late 50s. In 1964, Edythe joined the Hennepin County Welfare Dept. as a Home Management Counselor. In this capacity, she taught home management skills – such as budgeting, child care, home maintenance and nutrition – to low income mothers. Edythe thrived in this role for 20 years and was recognized by the then State of Minnesota Governor for her succcessful pilot programs dealing with young unwed mothers. After retiring from the Welfare Dept. in 1985, Edythe started her own business called PIZZAZ, a consulting company that taught seniors transitional skills needed for successful retirement. Edythe had a unique flair and artistic eye, which were expressed in many creative outlets throughout her life. She became a talented watercolor and oil painter. She designed beautiful rooms, gardens and floral arrangements. In her 70s, she started Edie's Interior & Floral Design, selling her paintings and elaborate silk flower arrangements and wreaths to local galleries and businesses. She later taught painting classes for friends and neighbors. Edythe was very outgoing and made lifelong friendships with people of all ages with whom she shared her love of gardening, cooking, antiques, music, and singing. An adventurous spirit, she was always eager to learn new hobbies and skills, whether it be tai chi, calligraphy, or making flavored olive oils and vinegars. Edythe is survived by her son, Keith (Jody), daughter, Carolynn Sherby (Jim); grandchildren, Tina Floersch, Lisa Mogler, Nicolas Pizzala, and Brielle Pizzala; and great-grand- children, Sarina, Ashley, Antonio, Dominic and Adrianna. Another son, Dennis, preceded her in death in 1993. Private interment at Fort Snelling National Cemetery. A memorial gathering will be held at Washburn- McReavy Dawn Valley, 9940 Bush Lake Rd., Bloomington, MN, Thursday, Sept. 8, 4-6 PM. Memorials to www.alzheimers.org.

In the Community, With the Community, For the Community

Referendum FROM PAGE 1 in June to seek extra tax revenue for operating funds, but it had until Aug. 26 to send its final November election ballot decisions to the state. Even if the referendum won’t be on the ballot this fall, Boardmember Holly Parker said – and board members agreed – the intent is to work as hard on collaborating with the community as it would on a 2011 referendum campaign. She doesn’t want to kick the funding can down the road, she said, but it’s important to put a focus on getting the community engaged. Boardmember Ranee Jacobus said three areas of focus are budget transparency, increasing budget collaboration and increasing trust between stakeholders and the district. Coming up with a sustainable, long-

term operating model for allocating district funds would make it easier for the community to have a more realistic sense of what it takes to educate students; it would be unreasonable to ask taxpayers for referendum funds without providing realistic budget projections, Jacobus said. The board will not seek to continue a technology funds referendum in 2011, either. A current technology levy expires in three years. The school board’s unanimous vote (absent Boardmember Kim Ross) came after a financial update from district staff. Chief Operating Officer Patricia Magnuson went through recent statelevel changes that would bring in more money and help stabilize reserve funds. The state-level changes include an increase in per-pupil funding and onetime state aid, similar to federal stimulus funds. For the upcoming school year, 20112012, the district’s unreserved fund balance is expected to be at 8.2 percent of

the district’s budget – above the 4 percent required by school board policy. But, it was the 2012-2013 school year that was of concern in June, when it was projected the district’s reserve fund would dip $4.6 million below its required 4 percent minimum for that year, according to Magnuson. However, given some state legislative changes after the state shutdown, things are looking financially better a year from now. During the latest legislative session, the state government made school funding changes, such as a $50 per student increase in the state’s per-pupil funding. The regular state funding changes would give Eden Prairie another $576,000 for the upcoming school year and $1.15 million for the 2012-2013 school year. Other 2012-2013 additional revenue: $967,594 one-time aid for being one of the state’s 20 largest districts and $509,729 in literacy aid. All of those changes from the legislative session would bring the initially

17

projected $4.6 million shortfall to $1.5 million for 2012-13. Magnuson said the gap could be closed, leaving a better financial outlook for the 2012-2013 school year if the 2011 referendum isn’t sought. The $1.5 million could be reduced through changes in a post-employment benefits fund, and the 2010-2011 budget hasn’t been closed; the district has a history of coming out better than budgeted, Magnuson said. All of those things will help quickly close the $1.5 million gap, she said. But much of the revised projections are based on the legislative session, Magnuson said, and didn’t include a shift in a post-employment benefits fund. There are also other budget projections that aren’t settled, she said, such as teacher and other employee contracts, which are currently being negotiated.

Eden Prairie hosts Champlin Park in opener at 7 p.m. Sept. 1 BY GREG KLEVEN • SUN NEWSPAPERS Six state football championship trophies reside in the Eden Prairie High School trophy case. The Eagles would like to add to that collection in 2011. Eden Prairie reached the state Class 5A quarterfinals last season before getting upset by Brainerd (13-10). The Eagles finished 9-2. “We look as good or better than last year’s team,” said head coach Mike Grant. “The seniors have worked hard to prepare for this season and we have a good junior class. “We are not super deep. Our strengths are depth in the defensive secondary and a good set of inside linebackers. And we have a big offensive line and good wide receivers and leadership.” Eden Prairie will rely heavily on leadership from its senior co-captains Andrew Larson and Drake Michaelson as the Eagles enter their season opener against Champlin Park at 7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 1, at Aerie Stadium. Larson is a 5-foot-10, 195-pound running back who rushed for 1,689 yards and 21 touchdowns while appearing in 10 of 11 games last season. “Andrew has great speed and vision for a running back,” said Grant. “And he is hard to tackle because of his strength.” Michaelson was one of the Eagles’ leading tacklers a year ago. Junior running back Derek Soderberg (6-1, 175) also returns on the Eagles’ starting offense. Eden Prairie’s offense should be bolstered by the addition of two senior offensive tackles. Nick Davidson (6-6, 275) will start after moving with his family from North Carolina to Eden Prairie. His father Jeff is the Vikings’ offensive line coach.

Larson will start at running back in the 2011 home opener against Champlin Park Sept. 1 at Aerie Stadium. (Photo by Brian Nelson • Contributing Photographer) Davidson is being recruited by at least 20 Division I colleges. “Nick is a very good player and great kid,” said Grant. “He will be a good addition to our line.” Daniel Urquhart (6-7, 310) also moved to Eden Prairie after playing at Allen, Tex., last season. He was a back-up tackle last year for his high school team. His previous high school had 6,400 students. Eden Prairie returns five defensive regulars. Michaelson is back at linebacker while junior Tyson Reinke (6-3, 255) will provide stability at tackle. Other defensive returnees are senior end Anthony King-Foreman (6-2, 210), senior end Melvin De-Souza (5-9, 175) and

senior safety Matt Knoff (6-1, 160). Three candidates tried out for the starting quarterback job. Coach Grant named junior Grant Shaeffer (6-1, 170) as his quarterback for the opener against Champlin Park. Shaeffer’s back-ups are senior John Hamre (6-1, 170) and junior Kellen Johnson (6-1, 170). Grant expects a good test from Champlin Park in the opener. “Champlin Park has a big offensive line and outstanding quarterback and running back,” said Grant. “It will be a great challenge because Champlin Park should be a top-10 team in the metro area.”

Olsen, an Eden Prairie resident, shot a hole in one on the 105-yard fifth hole at Legends, using a 56-degree wedge.

EP kickers hope to overcome section playoff jinx Eagles bid for state berth after three straight section title losses BY GREG KLEVEN • SUN NEWSPAPERS Eden Prairie has been jinxed in recent Section 2AA boys soccer tournaments. The Eagles reached the section title game the past three years before being eliminated. Last fall, the Eagles lost 1-0 to Bloomington Jefferson in the section title game. Eden Prairie finished 116-3 overall and placed third in the Lake Conference with a 2-4-2 record. “We should be solid at midfield and defense,” said Eden Prairie coach Vince Thomas. “Our biggest issue will be replacing 85 percent of our goal scorers lost through graduation. “But we did score eight goals in a pre-season scrimmage against Blake, Stillwater and Orono. We are putting faith in a number of young forwards.” Eden Prairie’s senior co-captains

are Dane Niemira and Ryan Shore. Niemira played both midfield and forward last season. Thomas has moved Niemira to defense this season. Shore will be a center midfielder. Other returning midfielders are senior Alex Aksoz, junior David Bernado and junior Medu Youssef. Eden Prairie’s veteran defenders are juniors Aaron Huderle and Chris Hurst along with seniors Alex Blixrud and Steve Frisbie. Top Eagle forwards are junior Natalio Blanche, junior Roman Derevyanko and sophomore Abdul Omar. Eden Prairie’s starting goalkeeper is senior A.J. Dewey. Eden Prairie’s coaching staff consists of Thomas, Kyle Burkhardt (varsity assistant), Doug Boonstra (junior varsity), John Becker (sophomore) and Scott Beck (9th-grade A). Eden Prairie will host Wayzata at 5 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 6, at Aerie Stadium. The Eagles travel to Hopkins for another Lake Conference game at 7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 8.

Eagle girls team is led by tri-captains Wilkins, Chilton and Sparkman BY GREG KLEVEN • SUN NEWSPAPERS What can Eden Prairie High School’s girls soccer team do for an encore this season? In the fall of 2010, the Eagles put on a dominating display in the state Class AA tournament, winning three games by a combined 8-0. Eden Prairie defeated Wayzata 3-0 in the championship game after blanking Mounds View 2-0 and Lakeville South 3-0. The Eagles finished 20-0-1. Can the 2011 Eagles duplicate that success? It might be difficult because Eden Prairie graduated eight seniors from the championship squad, including All-State forward and Ms. Soccer award winner Taylor Uhl, now playing for the University of Minnesota. Eagle coach Tony Bidwell knows it will be a challenge to replace those gifted graduated players but said he is

looking forward to the challenge. “It will be more difficult trying to replace last year’s seniors,” said the Eagle coach. “We will be definitely a younger team. “Our goal is to continue to make progress during the regular season. We have coachable, hard-working players with high soccer IQs.” Eden Prairie will depend heavily on its senior tri-captains – defender Kendall Wilkins and midfielders Lesley Chilton and Rebecca Sparkman. Other state tourney returnees are junior defender Kristi O’Brien, junior forward Coursey Edwards, senior forward Emily Tani-Weingarten and sophomore midfielder Kendal Jacobus. Bidwell doesn’t expect his team’s performance level to drop off. “Our overall soccer culture in Eden Prairie is such that our girls play a high level of competition throughout the year,” said Bidwell. Eden Prairie will host Blaine at 5 p.m. Friday, Sept. 2. The Eagles remain home at Aerie Stadium to play Wayzata at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 6.

First-year Eden Prairie head girls tennis coach Karen Berg has her team off to an impressive start. The Eagles won both of their matches in the Lakeville North Invitational Aug. 22. Eden Prairie defeated Lakeville North 4-3 and Owatonna 7-0. The Eagles added 7-0 victories over Providence Academy Aug. 24 and Chaska Aug. 25 to boost their overall record to 4-0. “We have a young team but should be solid,” said Berg, who was the Eagles’ junior varsity coach the past three years. “We will experiment with several different lineups early in the season. “We will probably be strongest in doubles competition.” Eden Prairie senior co-captains are Maddie Buxton and Allison Malmsten. In the Eagles’ victory over Lakeville

North, Malmsten won 6-2, 7-5 at second singles. Senior Cassy Deng followed with a 6-2, 7-6 victory at third singles. Junior Megan Phillips and ninthgrader Sophie Farmer combined for a 63, 6-2 win at first doubles. Junior Ali Horner and ninth-grader Sam Lee won 6-1, 6-3 at third doubles. Buxton played first singles and ninthgrader Eleanor Martin was at fourth singles in that match. Juniors Susie Pederson and Layla Safinia were teamed at second doubles. Buxton, Malmsten, Deng and Phillips won singles matches against Owatonna at the Lakeville North tourney. Eden Prairie’s winning doubles teams consisted of Pederson and Farmer, Safinia and Martin, and freshman Abby Martens and junior Jenny Nordbye. Other members of the Eden Prairie varsity team are senior Liz Whitacre and sophomore Hannah Truempi.
