Final ride with band of brothers the gift of a lifetime

C

hristian Redman always knew the late-stage colon cancer he has furiously fought for three years was incurable.

But he had hoped for remission, a chance to grab as many extra years as possible, to watch his 17-year-old daughter graduate from college, to walk her down the aisle.

The come-to-Jesus sobering reality check, as he called it, came in November: eight to 16 months left. In early February, he and his doctor had the hospice talk.

To ease his mind, he planned his funeral.

But the question from someone he didn’t know more than 1,800 miles away hovered above Ann Macari him, a spark of joy Healey to hold onto: “What do you think, a last hurrah?”

A last hurrah. A last ride with his band of brothers — friends and strangers bound by a fiercely loyal bond who have lifted him up, so that he can be with his daughter on her 18th birthday, then sink his toes, one last time, in the sand of a Key West beach.

“Life keeps going on around you, but you’re kind of stuck in a pause mode,” Redman, 51, says about his battle with this ruthless enemy, as he sat recently in the clubhouse of his Parker condominium complex, his words consistently interrupted by the beep of the small pump that delivers pain medication into his body six times an hour, 24 hours a day. “The trip is giving me the opportunity just to be one of the guys again. For a little while.”

••••• The guys are the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment, an Army unit also known as the Blackhorse Regiment, who also describe themselves as a Band of Brothers, the words splayed across the back of Redman’s black sweatshirt.

Formed in 1901 as a mounted regiment to help with territorial administration following the Spanish-American War of 1898, the regiment today is a mechanized unit that has been involved in just about every national and global conflict since. Ask any

Christian Redman sits in the clubhouse of his Parker condominium complex, wearing the sweatshirt of his beloved Blackhorse regiment. Blackhorse veterans are planning a last ride for Redman, who is dying of cancer.

ANN MACARI HEALEY Blackhorse trooper and he’ll tell you this: There is no unit more steadfast, more devoted, regardless of whether they know each other.

It’s like this, says Blackhorse veteran Ray Simpson, 72, a first sergeant who fought in Vietnam and lives in Colorado Springs: You’re at Popeye’s, waiting to order, when you see the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment crest on another man in line. “You look at him and you say, ‘Hey, brother.’ You

shake his hand, maybe give each other a hug, because you know — it’s just a thing .… When you’re in it, you’re all in, you don’t half-step … you just go all the way with it.”

“It’s the weirdest experience you could ever have,” says Rocky Cuda, a retired sergeant and president of the Florida chapter of the Blackhorse Regiment Cavalry Motorcycles. “All you do is see that badge and you’re connected.”

Which is why Cuda and Simpson, without knowing Redman, have powered into his life.

They all connected on the Blackhorse Association Facebook page, which Redman helped start in 2006.

Every now and then, Redman would post an update on his health. Before Christmas, he shared that he was reaching the end of the line.

It was Cuda’s idea: What about a kind of make-a-wish last ride for Blackhorse troopers, with Redman as the inaugural event? Call it Maverick’s Last Ride, after Redman’s call sign from his Army days. He would leave from Parker March 4, get to Louisville, Kentucky, in time for his daughter’s birthday on March 10, head to Daytona Beach, Florida, for the world’s largest motorcycle gathering and finish in Key West, Redman’s all-time happy place.

There would be other stops along the way, too, and Blackhorse troopers and veterans, either on motorcycles or in cars, would join in to form a caravan of brotherly love, cavalry-style.

Redman loved the idea. But he didn’t know how to make it happen.

He hasn’t been able to work since soon after his July 2016 diagnosis. The cancer treatments, hospitalizations and medications depleted his bank account and shuttered his burgeoning construction business. Friends and strangers rallied a little more than a year ago to raise about $23,000 to help with his rent, medical costs and bills.

Over the past year, he has sold his treasured ’70 SS cobalt blue Chevelle with the silver stripes, two Harleys and Kentucky Derby and NFL memorabilia to pay bills. He will move in with his parents next month because he can no longer pay the rent.

Then Simpson stepped in. He would drive them in his Ford pickup — the back seat is outfitted with a memory foam pad for comfort — pulling a 36foot camper for sleeping and eating. A small trailer attached to the camper will have Simpson’s Harley and a Sportster, a smaller, easier-to-handle Harley loaned by a fellow trooper to Redman, which he’ll try to ride when he feels well enough.

Parker will likely be home to the Douglas County School District’s fourth alternative education facility, and first career and technical education facility — together on one campus.

At the Feb. 19 board of education meeting, six board members — Anthony Graziano was absent — unanimously approved an 18-acre site, zoned for a school, at 11041 Pine Drive, north of the intersection of Mainstreet and Pine Drive. The district’s Long Range Planning Committee, which studies building and capacity needs, recommended the site because of its central location in Parker and availability. The district predicts growth in northeast Parker, but other dedicated school sites can be used if construction of a new school is needed.

District staff met with neighboring residents, town officials and the president of the Parker Area Chamber of Commerce to discuss the potential use of the Pine Drive site and future partnerships.

“Promises made, promises kept, that’s what this is about,” Dennis Houston, president of the chamber, said at

the board meeting. “How can we focus on career and technical education to show that we can really make an impact in the lives of the students and citizens of Douglas County?”

Ballot Issue 5B, a $250 million bond approved by voters last November, would fund the project. Of the $250 million, $39 million is allocated for career and technical education (CTE) and new construction. The remaining funds are going toward critical building repairs and capital reinvestments.

If developed, the Pine Lane facilities would not only provide learning opportunities for the 30 percent of Douglas County students who don’t go on to a two- or four-year university, but also students interested in fast-tracking an associate’s degree, workforce training or industry certification.

School board President David Ray is thrilled about the two facilities, he expressed at the Feb. 19 meeting.

Sock hop tradition continues at Castle Rock Elementary STAFF REPORT

For more than 30 years, Castle Rock Elementary School has hosted a sock hop as its largest fundraiser. This year’s event is from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.

March 8.

As part of the tradition, every grade level learns several coordinated dances, including the jitterbug, the Macarena, the popcorn dance and more, and the students perform the

dances at the sock hop, according to a news release.

The coordinated effort is headed by the physical education teacher and is supported by the school’s faculty and staff. New PE teachers are required to make the dances part of their curriculum, the release says.

The sock hop is the largest fundraiser for Castle Rock Elementary each year. Approximately a third of the students at the district’s smallest

elementary school qualify for free and reduced lunch, so the school relies on this fundraiser each year, the release says.

The cost is $15 per student and free for adults and children younger than 3. Community members are welcome.

Former students often return each year to support their school.

The event also includes auction baskets donated by community members, along with a cake walk, carnival

games, a photo booth and more. Raffle tickets are sold, with prizes including cash, spirit wear, gift certificates and more.

This year, three food trucks will be on site: 100% Tacos, Street Snack Bubble Waffles and MoonTime Crepes.

To purchase tickets, go to https:// squareup.com/store/CastleRockElementaryPTO. Checks payable to CRE PTO can be dropped off at the school.

Simpson knows about cancer. And suffering. His oldest son, who underwent 53 surgeries related to spina bifida, died of an aggressive form of cancer at 45.

“He’s a brother,” Simpson says simply, about why he’s doing this.

“He’s been through the hardships that I’ve been through, that we’ve all been through.”

Cuda and Simpson estimate gas will cost about $2,000 for the almost 5,000-mile roundtrip. Mike Endres, 69, a retired Army health care administrator and service officer for Parker American Legion Post #1864, is working with Redman’s friends Ron Meier and Bob Nobles, owner of the Parker restaurant Takoda Tavern, to help raise money to cover that and other related costs of the trip.

“We want to make this trip doable,” Endres says. “That group of men — the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment and its veterans — they are a national treasure.

“They love each other as brothers .… I’m inspired by their togetherness, their closeness, their desire to make this happen.”

Having some money to cover expenses would be nice, Simpson and Cuda say. But they aren’t worried — they’re going regardless.

IF YOU WANT TO HELP

Local veterans, along with several of Christian Redman’s friends and neighbors, are hoping to raise about $10,000 to help cover expenses for Maverick’s Last Ride, as well as for medical and other bills. About $1,200 had been collected as of Feb. 23. If you’d like to help, here are three ways: • Donate to the GoFundMe account, “Maverick’s Last Ride,” at www.gofundme.com/ mavericks-last-ride • Stop by Parker’s Takoda Tavern, a popular our Blackhorse, I’ll take care of him.”

The generosity of spirit has overwhelmed Redman.

“They said ‘All you got to do is show up and be healthy — we’ll take care of it,’ ” he says quietly. “Can you believe that? Isn’t that something?”

••••• Being on the receiving end of generosity has been humbling to Redman, known in the community for being the one to always help others. He was the can-do guy, the problem-solver, the man “with a heart of gold” as friends say, ready to step in when needed.

A cavalry scout stationed in Germany near the border with the Soviet Union when the Chernobyl nuclear explosion occurred in 1986, Redman later taught armor operations warfare and was called up in the reserves during Desert Shield/Desert Storm.

He was a police officer for 23 years in Kentucky before moving to Parker to help care for his aging parents. He worked construction and started his

restaurant and bar among military personnel and veterans, for a fundraiser on Saturday, March 9, from 10 a.m.-8 p.m. A portion of the day’s sales also will be donated to the fundraiser. The Tavern is at 12365 Pine Bluffs Way, Parker. 720-8515302.

But the cancer, which has spread to his liver and stomach, has ravaged Redman, leaving him with an ileostomy bag outside his stomach area to collect waste products from his body, whittling him down from a “maverick” 230 pounds to 140 pounds at one point. He has since gained back 40 pounds, despite the side-effects of chemotherapy and radiation that make it difficult to eat.

There have been dark days, where he’d sit in his condo, watch TV and not open the door for four or five days.

“Just couldn’t summon the energy,” he says.

“I get to see brothers I haven’t seen in years, meet new brothers, be with my daughter on her birthday,” says Redman, his voice tinged with a soft longing. “Go down to Florida, get up in the middle of the night and walk down to the beach, feeling the breeze in your hair, smelling the salt, looking up and seeing the palms. It just calms your soul.”

He pauses, remembering.

“And it’s never bad to feel the sand beneath your toes.”

Bill would allow temporary removal of guns from high-risk owners Democratic state legislators introduce ‘red-flag’ measure

BY ELLIS ARNOLD EARNOLD@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Introduced on the anniversary of the Parkland, Florida, school shooting, a bill to allow law enforcement to remove firearms from those shown to be a risk to themselves or others has emerged again at the state Capitol after last year’s defeat by a then-Republican Senate.

“We are on the clock of trying to save people’s lives,” said state Rep. Tom Sullivan, a Centennial Democrat whose son was killed in the 2012 Aurora theater shooting.

Bearing the name of Sullivan a Douglas County sheriff ’s deputy who was killed when a reportedly mentally ill man shot him and four other officers on Dec. 31, 2017, the Deputy Zackari Parrish III Violence Prevention Act faces a different political landscape than last year.

Now with a majority in the state House and state Senate, Democrats are expected to pass the measure — known as a “red flag” bill — which

comes with some changes from last year’s version that have alienated some Republicans.

The prior proposal enjoyed the support of then-state Rep. Cole Wist, a top sponsor of that bill, and 18th Judicial District Attorney George Brauchler — both Republicans.

“There are significant material differences in this year’s bill,” Wist, who in November was unseated by Sullivan, said in a tweet. “I am opposed and urge the General Assembly to vote no.”

Along with Sullivan, House Majority Leader Alec Garnett, of Denver, and Sens. Brittany Pettersen, of Lakewood, and Lois Court, of Denver — all Democrats — are top sponsors of the bill, which was introduced Feb. 14. It passed the House Judiciary Committee a week later to move closer to a full vote.

‘This is another tool that law enforcement has been asking for to help them to do their job as effectively as they can.

And that’s what we should be doing.’

Rep. Tom Sullivan, Centennial Democrat whose son was killed in Aurora theater shooting

‘No bill perfect for everyone’ Under the bill, a family or household member or a law enforcement officer can petition a court to allow officers to remove a person’s guns.

The requester must prove that the person poses a “significant risk” to self or others in having or purchasing a gun. A temporary extreme risk protection order can prohibit a person from having firearms for up

to 14 days. After that, if the requester can prove the person is a risk — under a higher standard of evidence — the court can issue a continuing order, preventing the person from having or buying a gun for 364 days.

The court would appoint an attorney, at no cost, to represent the person during that second court hearing.

At issue for Wist are the longer time periods a person can remain without their guns: This year’s bill doubles the length of both the temporary and continuing orders, compared to last year’s.

It also shifts the burden of proof to the person whose guns are taken, rather than the person who requested the order, to prove to the court that the guns should be returned before the 364 days end. That’s another issue for Wist and Brauchler.

“I don’t want you to say there’s no form of this bill that I’d support,” said Brauchler, the DA for the district comprising Arapahoe, Douglas, Elbert and Lincoln counties.

“To Sullivan and Garnett’s credit, they’ve made some changes.”

Douglas County Sheriff Tony Spurlock, also a Republican, has been in meetings with lawmakers at the Capitol, pushing for changes like keeping the burden of proof on the requester rather than the person who may be a risk. But like last year, Spurlock is in favor.

Spurlock “I have issues with it as well, but there’s no bill that is perfect for everyone,” Spurlock said. “Way too many politicians are making this about guns, and it’s not. This is about mental health issues.”

Spurlock noted the court would be able to put a person under a 72-hour mental health hold, with evaluation and treatment, if they’re shown to be in need of it.

“The goal is not to break down someone’s door and take his guns,” Spurlock said.

The process of taking someone’s guns wouldn’t always start that way,

Spurlock added — if a person isn’t in mental health crisis, law enforcement would have a conversation with them. On the question of that situation escalating to use of force, Spurlock said people shouldn’t think that would be frequent.

“That’s looking into a crystal ball,” Spurlock said. “We contact people every day with mental health issues that (involve) no use of force.”

Brauchler Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser, a Democrat, said the bill is constitutional and annouced his support for it in a news release Feb. 21, saying “reasonable restrictions” on some groups, including those with mental illness, are permissible based on a Supreme Court decision.

‘Violation of due process’ The bill isn’t aimed squarely at preventing mass shootings, which are often a “sudden instance,” Sullivan said.

“This is another tool that law enforcement has been asking for to help them to do their job as effectively as they can,” Sullivan said.

“And that’s what we should be doing.”

Brauchler, who prosecuted the Aurora theater shooter, said he hopes such a bill could have an effect on mass shootings, but it’s difficult to tell.

“Even the Aurora theater (shooter), I don’t know that this law, had it been on the books before July 20, 2012, would have stopped it,” Brauchler said. “But for Zack Parrish’s case, I’m pretty convinced that there would have been an intervention that stopped that from happening.”

Deputies were attempting to place Parrish’s shooter on a mental health hold when he opened fire, but deputies had contacted him multiple times before, Spurlock said.

The suspected shooter at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland also was known to local law enforcement as troubled.

Some oppose the proposal in more broad terms, though, like Rocky Mountain Gun Owners, a gun-rights group that says it has more than 200,000 members and supporters statewide.

“Colorado gun owners loudly oppose so-called ‘red flag’ schemes because they are a gross violation of due process protections,” said Dudley Brown, executive director of the group, in a news release. “The bill will do nothing to prevent another Columbine, Aurora, or Parkland.”

Democrats “missed the chance” to write a bill that protects Coloradans’ civil rights, House Minority Leader Patrick Neville said in a Feb. 21 news release.

“The very real threat exists that innocent people will be stigmatized as dangerous.

Should pigs, goats and ducks be allowed as pets in Castle Rock?

Town’s animal code under further review

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Nearly a year after Castle Rock overhauled its animal code, which included repealing the town’s pit bull ban, town staff members are researching the removal of other animal bans, specifically of miniature pigs, goats and ducks.

Mayor Jason Gray directed the town attorney to return at a later council meeting with more information on the bans following a brief discussion on the animal code during the Feb. 19 meeting. A town spokeswoman said staff expect to return with a presentation in the spring or summer after gathering more community input.

They do plan to recommend a size limitation on pigs, she said.

Councilmembers had debated whether they should more formally consider keeping or removing pig, goat and duck bans.

Town Attorney Bob Slentz said the town received some requests to relax rules on those animals in the previous process to update the animal ordinance. Council voted in May to approve a sweeping update of the animal code, covering everything from chickens to bees to service animals. It also replaced the town’s breed-specific ban barring pit bulls with a system that regulates a dog’s behavior, not breed.

Councilmembers George Teal, Jason Bower and Jess Loban expressed support for researching the pigs, goats

“I have seen this happen with veterans and friends of mine that I served with in the military,” said Neville, R-Castle Rock. “People who actually need help will be dissuaded from seeking it out of concern about their rights being taken away.”

‘Reducing these tragedies’ Under the bill, the person whose guns are taken can ask the court once to end the order, and they would also have the burden of proving that the order should end. The requester could ask for an extension of the order before it expires if they can prove the person still poses a risk.

“We’re not infringing on someone’s Second Amendment right,” Spurlock said. “We’re not taking those guns permanently. They’re removed until someone is treated

and ducks issue, saying they have constituents with interest in owning those animals, while Councilmember James Townsend said he opposed taking it up.

For Bower, more talks on the issue would be a chance to learn about the differences between caring for animals like goats versus dogs or chickens. He also expects that to some people pigs, goats and ducks are pets, but to others they’re a form of urban farming.

Bower described Castle Rock as a ranching community with a strong 4-H presence, albeit one with many new residents. Participants in 4-H often raise a variety of animals, including livestock through the program.

Loban said he felt it was better to have an open discussion about the bans than to move past the topic.

Townsend raised some concerns about removing the bans, which he said was based on information provided by town staff and law enforcement. Enforcing an animal code that permits new animal breeds would require additional training for animal control and officers, he said.

They’d need to know how to care for goats, pigs and ducks and have the proper equipment if, say, those animals were to get loose from their homes or be confiscated from abuse situations. Townsend believes that all translates to added cost for the town.

On potential changes to the bill, Spurlock wants to see if the guns could be transferred to a family member instead of law enforcement taking them.

He also seeks more support for entities that provide treatment for behavioral health, adding that an emergency room is “no place for someone who’s in crisis.”

Parrish’s parents put out a statement through Democratic state senators at a news conference Feb. 14 that announced the legislation, saying “it is incumbent upon us” to support it, according to a news release.

“This is not about taking gun rights away from anyone; it is about protecting our first responders, families and the community at large,” the parents’ statement said, “thus reducing these tragedies in the future.”

Suburbanites show political divide based on background Urban, rural roots show lingering effects on beliefs as residents resettle

ABOUT THE SURVEY

BY NICHOLAS RICCARDI AND HANNAH FINGERHUT ASSOCIATED PRESS

The AP-NORC poll of 1,010 adults was conducted Jan. 16 to 20 using a sample drawn from NORC’s probability-based AmeriSpeak Panel, which is designed to be representative of the U.S. population. The margin of sampling error for all respondents is plus or minus 4.3 percentage points.

America’s suburbs are today’s great political battleground, long seen as an independent pivot between the country’s liberal cities and conservative small towns and rural expanse.

But it’s not that simple. It turns out that these places in-between may be the most politically polarized of all — and when figuring out the partisan leanings of people living in the suburbs, where they came from makes a difference.

Fewer suburbanites describe themselves as politically independent than do residents of the nation’s urban and rural areas, according to a survey released on Feb. 19 by the University of Chicago Harris School for Public Policy and The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. The poll also found that the partisan leanings of suburban residents are closely linked to whether they have previously lived in a city.

“In the last decade, particularly in the past five years, I’ve felt a shift in having some liberal neighbors,” said Nancy Wieman, 63, a registered Republican and staunch conservative

who has lived in Jefferson County in the west Denver suburbs her entire life.

“The ones who are markedly liberal have moved from Denver or other cities.”

Suburbanites who previously lived in a city are about as likely as citydwellers to call themselves Democrats, the survey found. Similarly, Americans living in suburbs who have never resided in an urban area are about as likely as rural residents to say they are Republican.

Just 15 percent of suburban Americans say they are independent and do not lean toward a party, compared with 25 percent of urban Americans and 30 percent of rural Americans who call themselves politically independent.

That divide extends to the White House: 72 percent of ex-urban suburbanites disapprove of President Donald Trump’s performance in office, as do 77 percent of city residents.

That compares with the 57 percent of suburbanites who have not previously lived in a city and 54 percent of rural Americans who say they disapprove of the president.

Moving from middle Kevin Keelan moved from Denver to Jefferson County 16 years ago. Once a political independent, the 49-year-old registered as a Democrat a few years ago.

“Now it’s not even an option. I’d vote Democratic or independent, but there’s no way I can vote Republican anymore,” Keelan said. “It’s just being more open-minded, and I’d be that way if I was living here or in a loft downtown.”

Jefferson County, once right-leaning, has been reshaped by an influx of transplants from coastal, urban states.

It now leans Democratic: The party swept countywide offices and won most of the state legislative districts there in 2018, and Hillary Clinton won the county by 7 percentage points in 2016.

Yet under that surface, election results from 2016 show it is a deeply polarized place. In 118 precincts in Jefferson County, one of the candidates won by more than 10 points. Clinton won 60 precincts and Trump 58.

“The chasm between the two sides is greater than ever,” said Libby Szabo, a Republican county commissioner.

“It’s harder at this point, because the ideals are so different, to even change parties.”

The UChicago Harris/AP-NORC poll points to how that split between urban and rural America echoes through the suburbs.

About two-thirds of city dwellers say that legal immigration is a net benefit to the United States, much as the 7 in 10 former city residents now living in the suburbs who say the same. A smaller majority of suburbanites who have never lived in cities, 58 percent, and half of rural residents think the benefits of legal immigration outweigh the risks.

Urban/rural split Urban residents are somewhat more likely than rural residents to think the U.S. should be active in world affairs, 37 percent to 24 percent. That mirrors the

split between suburbanites who used to live in cities and those who never have: 32 percent of the former favor an active U.S. role, compared with 23 percent of the latter.

About 6 in 10 urban residents and exurban suburbanites say that the way things are going in the U.S. will worsen this year, while less than half of rural residents or suburbanites with no city experience believe the same.

S.A. Campbell is a general contractor who lives in the Kansas City suburbs of Johnson County, Kansas, which swung toward the Democrats in 2018 as it replaced a four-term Republican congressman with a Democratic woman who is an openly gay Native American. It is often compared to Jefferson County, with its highly educated population, high-quality schools and influx of previous city dwellers.

Campbell, 60, said his childhood in Kansas City is part of what made him a supporter of Democrats; his parents were both teachers active in their union, and his mother was a supporter of Planned Parenthood.

“When you’ve been raised in a certain fashion, your view of the world is more open than if you grew up in a household that wasn’t that,” he said.

George Stern, the newly elected clerk in Jefferson County, has lived in New York City and spent parts of his childhood on a remote Colorado ranch.

He sees partisan attitudes hardening in the suburbs much as they have in urban and rural parts of the country.

But, he said, there’s a key difference: While there may be fewer independents in the suburbs, the mixture of loyal Democrats and Republicans found there means it’s still a place for both sides.

“You’re welcome regardless of your political beliefs,” said Stern, a Democrat and volunteer firefighter in a suburban department with a wide range of political views in the station.

“It becomes harder to live in rural or urban areas if your political beliefs don’t match those of the majority of the people who live there.”

New trial date set for suspect in trooper’s death Noe Gamez-Ruiz heads back to trial in five months

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A district court judge on Feb. 20 set new trial dates in the case of Noe Gamez-Ruiz, the man who has now twice gone to trial after pleading not guilty to charges in the 2016 death of Colorado State Trooper Cody Donahue.

Gamez-Ruiz’s third trial is set for July, roughly five months after District Court Judge Shay Whitaker declared Gamez-Ruiz a mistrial in the case for the second time. He faces a felony charge of criminally-negligent homicide; careless driving resulting in death, a misdemeanor; and careless driving, failure to yield the right-of-way to an emergency vehicle, a Donahue traffic infraction.

The first mistrial was declared in September and the second in February, both under similar circumstances in which defense attorneys were not made aware of certain information before it was offered in court.

The third trial was set within six months from the latest mistrial after Gamez-Ruiz waived his right to a 90day speedy trial. By statute, prosecutors would have been required to bring the case back to trial within 90 days following the mistrial. Defense attorneys instead requested a sixmonth timeframe.

Donahue, a husband and father of two from Parker, died in November 2016 while investigating a car accident on the right shoulder of I-25 south of Castle Rock. He was killed when Gamez-Ruiz, of Denver, passed the accident driving his U.S. Foods truck in the far-right lane, striking the trooper and killing him on impact, according to authorities.

Gamez-Ruiz’s attorney, Harvey Steinburg, declined to comment following the Feb. 20 hearing. Eighteenth Judicial District Attorney George Brauchler said the prosecution would have preferred to try the case again in 90 days, but he did not object to the defense’s request.

The second mistrial was declared when a Douglas County Sheriff ’s Office deputy who was assigned to drive Gamez-Ruiz’s truck away from the scene testified in court. The deputy testified he felt the truck pull to the right, but that observation was not included in his reports provided to defense attorneys prior to trial.

Six months will give the defense and their expert witnesses more time to assess that information, Brauchler said.

“If they want the time to have their experts weigh in on this,” he said, “they should get that time.”

Prosecutors have argued that Gamez-Ruiz had sufficient time and training as a truck driver to avoid hitting Donahue, saying troopers’ lights were visible from well over a mile away and there was no sign he’d attempted to merge lanes.

Defense attorneys urged jurors to see it as a tragic accident, not a felony crime, Gamez-Ruiz was unable to change lanes because of a quickly-approaching vehicle in the middle lane, they said, and that he’d significantly slowed his speed to about 20 miles under the speed limit.

VOICES Life choices resonate like the sound of a gong

I

’ll take Door Number 2.

We’re all vulnerable to the choices we make.

The college we go to, the city we move to, the job we take, the man or woman we date or marry, and whether to have children or not, all can have everlasting consequences.

I bought my house when it was under construction, and I was too excited about it to notice that the master bedroom faces the morning sun, and the living room faces the setting sun. Both have high nonrectangular windows that are almost impossible to find treatments for, and they let in enough heat in July to bake a casserole without an oven.

I took a full-time job at a school without high admission standards, knowing I am an admission standards snob. Why? I was young, and simply wanted a full time job.

I once dated the most beautiful woman in town, who wrote the book on dramatics, and washed her hair in a stranger’s sprinkler after a disappointing haircut.

Why did I date her? You can probQUIET guess.

DESPERATION ably I have thought about the choices Shanann Watts and Kelsey Berreth made, and the tragic outcomes, far more consequential than bedroom casseroles in July.

I have watched lesser outcomes Craig Marshall but soul-crushing Smith ones in marriages that began on sunny afternoons with bridesmaids and promises that turned into the War of the Roses.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR A political move I was dismayed to read that Meghann Silverthorn was chosen for a position on the Douglas County Library Board of Trustees. Her extreme right-wing ideology was part of the destruction of the Douglas County School District until we the people decided to take back our district from Ms. Silverthorn and her friends, and rescue our schools before it was too late.

Toward the end of the article, Sean Duffy of the Board of Trustees says “... the library board has never been about politics.” Well Mr. Duffy, it is now.

County Commissioner Lora Thomas, who was part of the selection committee, said in the article, “We won’t make any apologies to the public for this board’s commitment to our conservative principles.” That’s not political?

My dismay has now turned into a fierce determination to get involved, and watch closely the decisions of Meghann Silverthorn and her extreme

right-wing conservatives on the library board to make sure that what happened to the DCSD doesn’t happen to our wonderful libraries.

Robert Clarke Highlands Ranch It doesn’t add up If Colorado Republicans want to whine about Democrats trying to equalize our broken system of counting votes, they should take a 1,500-mile trip east to my home state of West Virginia.

West Virginia is a beautiful poverty stricken state that is a leader in opiod addiction and obesity. That little state has five electoral college, votes while Colorado, with 300 percent greater population, has nine.

I am not good at math, but I believe every vote cast in Douglas County for president was wiped off the face of the earth by West Virginia or a dozen other small States, including Wyoming, Montana, North and South Dakota.

Roy Legg Highlands Ranch

Some of the choices people make are great for narratives, in films and novels, but not that great to come home to, if they happen to us.

On the other hand, I can look back now at some decisions I made that turned out very favorably, even though I may not have done enough research in the first place.

My first choice was journalism at a university that didn’t have an undergraduate journalism department.

Uh. My second choice was fine art. It turned out to be where I belonged in the first place.

I chose a dachshund puppy when I was 5. I am now on my fourth (and final) dachshund, and inextricably devoted to the breed.

We make decisions all the time: CNN or Fox (or neither). Republican or Democrat (or neither). God or no

God. There is nothing better than freedom, and that includes the freedom of choice.

I can get into my car and drive in any direction I want to, for as long as I want to, and listen to whatever I want to.

I read about a man named Joaquin Guzman who was convicted of numerous crimes, and was sentenced to spend the remainder of his life in a seven-foot by twelve-foot cell with a single window three feet high by four inches wide.

He’ll be incarcerated right down the road, in Florence, 40 miles south of Colorado Springs.

Bills aim to boost government role in Coloradans’ health care

T

he 2019 Colorado General Assembly is vastly different from the past two years.

The Democratic Party has a majority in both the House and the Senate, which means that the Republicans do not have enough votes to block any of the partisan legislation that is proposed. We are already witnessing a number of extremely controversial bills being introduced, such as restructuring of Colorado’s comprehensive sexeducation curriculum, firearm seizures, and several health-care bills.

As the ranking member of the Senate Health and Human Services Committee, I regularly see legislation that continues to attempt to insert government into your health-care decisions. Historically, I have tried to support legislation that lowers health-care and healthinsurance costs, improves access, and maintains high-quality care for all Coloradans. Ideally, I strive to accomplish this with the least possible level of government involvement. For example, last session I sponsored a bill to repeal the state health-care exchange and allow

Unfortunately, that GUEST bill did not pass.

COLUMN The current Democratic majority is alternatively proposing laws that significantly increase government involvement in your health-care options.

This year, we will see two “publicJim Smallwood option” scenarios where the state government will compete against private insurance companies, a state-run prescription drug importation program, a state-run provider contracting scheme, and a state-run reinsurance program. I feel strongly that public option alternatives will ultimately reduce what little competition we have left in our state. As I said in my interview with Denver 7:

You can even choose to stop reading this column if you truly believe that there is nothing more to say when it seems like it’s all been said before. But before you make that choice, I hope you will also remember that common sense is not always common practice and that repetition is the mother and father of all learning.

So how about you? Have you heard it all before? Or can you live with a few more reminders about just how important our outlook is and how our outlook and actions can impact others, improving our own lives at the same time?

We all want affordable healthcare solutions for our state. I will continue to advocate for affordable health care that also provides high quality and patient choices. I believe the solutions do not involve more government, but instead a focus on individuals being allowed to make their own health-care and insurance decisions with much, much more transparency around the cost of care from physicians and facilities.

Our state should be a leader in the free-market solution. Not in bigger government failure.

The good news this session is there are bipartisan bills that are being passed. My bill, Senate Bill 25, to teach the Safe Haven law in Colorado schools, passed the Senate unanimously. This bill will help educate the youth on what they may do if they are unable or unwilling to care for a newborn.

or aficionados of a certain kind of English novel, the phrase “the moors” conjures up images of a mysterious, fog-shrouded lowlands where romance and danger go hand-inhand.

In her 2016 work with that same title, playwright Jen Silverman took the conventions that writers like the Brönte sisters and Arthur Conan Doyle built into this location and turned them into a dark comedy.

“One way we’re describing the show is ‘Wuthering Heights’ meets COMING Addams FamATTRACTIONS ‘The ily,’” explained actor Jessica Robblee. “There are a lot of mysteries to it, but there’s also a lot of fun in the play as well.”

The regional premiere of “The Moors” runs at the Arvada Center, Clarke Reader 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., through May 18. The show is the second of three repertory productions at the center, with performances taking place at 1 p.m. on Wednesdays, 7:30 p.m. on Thursdays through Saturdays and 2 p.m. on Sundays. There will also be select Saturday matinées at 2 p.m.

The show focuses on two sisters, their depressed mastiff dog (Geoffrey Kent) and their lonely life out on the moors. But with the appearance of a governess and a mooorhen, everyone’s life gets thrown into chaos. Robblee takes on the role of Huldey, one of the sisters, and Regina Fernandez plays Emilie, the home’s new governess.

“The show reminds me of the great gothic thrillers like ‘Rebecca,’ but there’s also bits of ‘The Wizard of Oz’ and ‘Alice in Wonderland’ as well,” Fernandez said. “While it might seem like just a period piece, it’s really easy to access for modern audiences.”

One thing the show has in common with the other two productions of the Black Box season — “The Diary of Anne Frank” and “Sin Street Social Club” — is a strong sense of location. Fernandez said the English moors are a vibrant character in the play, which adds to the emotional and darkly funny nature of the play.

“Really, it’s just a beautiful show,” Robblee said. “There’s a real journey in the play, with a lot of nice SEE READER, P16

Douglas County weighs how to open Sandstone Ranch to the public Master Plan process underway, far from over, director says

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Last year, Douglas County bought a sprawling ranch located within its borders near the foothills, taking it off the public market and adding it to the list of properties the county has acquired to then maintain as public open space.

After closing on the sale, the dilemma became crafting a plan to open the land for the public in a way that wouldn’t endanger its natural resources.

The 2,038-acre Sandstone Ranch sits roughly five miles west of Larkspur and borders the Pike National Forest for 3 1/2 miles on its southern and western boundaries. Douglas County purchased it in January 2018 for $18.75 million from Texas-based company AR Sandstone LLC. “Sandstone Ranch isn’t just a celebration of the West,” Douglas County Commissioner Abe Laydon said. “It’s a celebration of what keeps the West wild.”

Sandstone has been in operation since the 1870s and remains a working ranch complete with a cattle herd roaming its fields. Red rock formations project toward the sky, hundreds of animal species dwell in its forested canyon, some endangered, and it generally serves as a reminder of the county’s historical roots in agriculture.

Staff knew they’d need a master plan for the property, and they knew compiling it would be a long process, said the county’s director of open space, Cheryl Matthews. It’s far from over, she said, but there’s a draft in the works.

She cautioned ideas discussed to date are still conceptual and likely to change.

So far, they include a trail system on the eastern portion of the property — about 15 1/2 miles worth combined — served by a parking lot on the southeast end, along Highway 105.

They hope to steer people away from the western half of Sandstone, where more sensitive habitat now thrives.

Douglas Land Conservancy Executive Director Patti Hostetler said the ranch “has a long-standing reputation for agricultural operations.” That makes it important to preserve. But so does its borders with the Pike National Forest.

“Being adjacent to the Pike National Forest, it provides a critical migration corridor for big game,” she said, naming deer, elk, bears and mountain lions.

“Not to mention any other species that are used to not seeing the public on a daily basis.”

County staff suggest offering expertguided tours on that portion rather than letting people roam it freely, as

they would on the eastern trails. The ranch is still closed to the public but the county, in partnership with the Douglas Land Conservancy, began offering guided tours in May. Scott McEldowney, Douglas County’s assistant director of open space and natural resources, said the plan aims to balance the land’s historical and natural resources with preserving its ranching operation and public access.

“I think we have a really, really interesting trail system, first of all, without compromising ranch operations and secondly,” he said, “without overusing the resource.”

McEldowney said they want a sizeable parking lot to prevent overflow or parking along the highway. County commissioners have aired some concerns about road cyclists using the lot to park and then ride along Highway 105, potentially creating conflict between vehicles and cyclists.

The county underwent a public out-

reach process after buying the ranch to gauge how the public would like to see it used. Community survey results showed 85 percent of respondents believe preserving the habitat and wildlife on Sandstone Ranch is very important.

When asked what type of uses are appropriate, hiking earned the highest mark with 18 percent of respondents favoring that activity. Access to the Pike National Forest, educational programs, horseback riding, running and biking events all received roughly 10 percent of votes.

Their largest concern was overuse of the land, followed by allowing motorized vehicles to access it, such as ATVs. County staff also engaged stakeholder groups, and some felt the property was too special to open to the public, officials said. Commissioner Roger Partridge understands the concerns.

At a Feb. 19 meeting among commissioners and staff, he pointed to other popular spots in Colorado, naming Hanging Lake as an example of highlytrafficked areas that are sometimes abused.

“I have seen some Denver mountain parks that I have been to that are just really beat up,” said Lora Thomas, chairwoman of the board of county commissioners. “We don’t want this to be beat up.”

But closing the ranch is not an option, Partridge said.

“I certainly didn’t make a decision to use taxpayer dollars to shut it down,” he said. “We want to be able to offer the public what they invested in.”

As they wait to see what the master plan will look like, Hostetler said preserving Sandstone means residents can get in touch with the county’s heritage and connect with wildlife.

“By the county purchasing this property and protecting it,” she said, “it just provides great, unique opportunities for the public.”

Make plans now to garden with habitat in mind Proper preparation helps people do their part for the planet

BY SONYA ELLINGBOE SELLINGBOE@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Evergreens, deciduous trees, berry bushes, grasses, flowers for all seasons — one can surround oneself with growing things for a great part of the year in Colorado where we live. Nourishment ensues for all concerned: gardener and assorted visitors.

Despite blazing sun and cold nights, a great variety of plants will grow happily here and they will invite birds and pollinators to visit and live with you.

Food, water, cover and places to raise young are required — probably many readers’ yards already contain these ingredients for a National Wildlife Federation “Certified Wildlife Habitat” that is one more puzzle piece in place for replenishing resources for visiting birds, butterflies and possibly other small creatures. See nwf. org for information.

The NWF also encourages Schoolyard Habitats (there are more than 7,000 across the nation and a parent might want to help with a project at a neighborhood school, in addition to considering the home’s surroundings).

I would want to encourage neighborhood organizations to make information available to residents — both new and longtime.

As our metro area fills with more concrete and housing, food for wildlife decreases monthly. And gardening here is tricky if a new neighbor has come from the Midwest or a coast. Offer some help, please.

February/early March is the time of year when impatient gardeners leaf through catalogues, research online for new varieties of plants and search for shoots of spring bulbs emerging from the earth after snow melts.

Hopefully, our new plant choices will form with wildlife needs in mind: berry bushes to feed birds, trees that provide shelter and perhaps also food, flowers especially attractive to pollinators passing by, perhaps some milkweed plants to house and feed a Monarch butterfly’s striped caterpillars and especially important — a year-round source of water.

A shallow clay dish will work, as will a more handsome birdbath or perhaps a fountain in warm weather.

(When it is ringed with chatty robins, drinking and splashing, adults and children will be delighted.)

Garden shops, hardware stores and specialty spots like Wild Birds Unlimited will have a variety of devices to keep water from freezing. This is as important as food.

Food sources include seeds, berries, nectar, nuts, fruits, sap, pollen and foliage and twigs — you don’t get to choose which one — sharing is what it’s about!

A feeder with birdseed is certainly welcomed by feathered friends — and of course, the resident squirrel family, but if one considers the entire yard as a potential resource for food and shelter, the rewards can be expanded — for gardener and critters!

Resources for information are plentiful: public gardens (Hudson Gardens, Chatfield Farms, Denver Botanic Gardens) … public parks, nurseries, county extension services, garden clubs and more, depending on how one wishes to access information.

Of course, NO pesticide is a cardinal rule here, which may result in some chewed-on leaves and blossoms, but hungry birds will consume those insects if a garden invites them to hang around.

An added attraction is the host of migrating birds that pass by in summer and fall. I really believe they remember a spot that was welcoming. Keep binoculars and bird book handy near a window and teach kids to enjoy “let’s look it up.”

Start with a bit of research and perhaps a particular corner of your yard. How much sun is there? Is the soil reasonably workable? Perhaps soil should be tested if the property is new to you.

Check a local nursery, where employees know what is what — and where a proposed purchase will grow happily — and choose a few shrubs that will provide berries (Western sandcherry, elderberry, one of several currants, wild rose) — see lists on the CSU Extension site and that of the Native Plant Society.

If the property is new, a careful consideration of trees is in order and soil amendment will no doubt be necessary. If there are none, start one or two trees if possible-they are slow to mature.

The City of Littleton holds an annual sale. See website to order.) Of course, if there are already a bunch of trees, get acquainted with them and any particular needs they might have.

A selection of native perennials will mix well with some colorful annuals to attract pollinators and brighten a gardener’s flower bed — or pots. Garden club members and other neighbors usually are happy to share plants once established and may want to suggest favorites that do well in your immediate vicinity.

Beware of what are considered “aggressive” plants — those that want to take over a garden (think mint — put a barrier around it!)

Learn when a particular variety blooms, color and size and plan placement. There’s lots of help out there online and in print, as well as at your local nursery.

Pay particular attention to predicted future size and shape of trees and shrubs. We’ve all seen huge evergreens smashed up against a house!

A native shrub that provides handsome leaves, nice flowers and, later, berries will be a good investment as you water, fertilize and talk to it.

Consider the native Oregon grape/ holly with its evergreen leaves, yel-

low blooms and berries, for example, or chokecherry and know that birds will plant more of them where they wish, once the food source is established. (You may disagree on avian placement.)

If establishment of a Certified Wildlife Habitat appeals, see information on the NWF website. Application forms are available and there is a $20 registration fee. Which also provides a subscription to the nice NWF magazine.

For an additional $30, one can obtain an aluminum sign for your yard (or there’s a pricier wall plaque — but I’d prefer to invest in plants.)

Low-water plants are the way to go, versus those that require daily watering.

Some communities regulate landscape appearance, so be familiar with rules in your neighborhood, if any.

Think spring!

Planning berry bushes for food, trees for shelter and ponds, bird baths or fountains for water sources are some ways to make your garden friendly for small animals and other critters.

Event helps those who are devout and rushed Busy residents can still observe Ash Wednesday in downtown Castle Rock

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The annual “Ashes to Go” event that brings local clergy to the streets so people in a hurry can observe Ash

Wednesday comes back to Castle Rock on March 6.

Clergy from three Douglas County churches will gather at the corner of Fourth and Wilcox Streets in downtown Castle Rock to mark people’s

foreheads with ash in observance of Lent. Ash Wednesday is the first day of Lent, a 40-day period where people are encouraged to prepare for Easter, often with fasting and reflection.

St. Philip in the Field Episcopal Church in Sedalia, Christ’s Episcopal Church in Castle Rock and Well of Hope ELCA in Castle Rock will be represented at the event. Clergy will work from 8 to 10 a.m., 11:30

a.m. to 1 p.m. and from 4 to 5:30 p.m.

This is the event’s fourth year running. Anyone wanting to participate can stop by to visit with the clergy.

“I love Ashes to Go,” said Rev. Janet Fullmer of St. Philip in the Field Episcopal Church in a written statement. “It’s an invitation to recognize God’s living presence right where we are — in the middle of life as usual.”

A FANTASTIC FOURTH Ponderosa senior Cohlton Schultz has won a state wrestling title every season

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA

Ponderosa senior Cohlton Schultz wrapped up an extraordinary high school wrestling career by capturing his fourth state title — but he had a second goal heading into the finals of the Class 5A state tournament on Feb. 23 at the Pepsi Center.

There was little doubt Schultz was focused on his final high school match

Ponderosa senior Mosha Schwartz celebrates after winning the 126-pound state championships with an 11-5 win over Pomona’s Wyatt Yapoujin on Feb. 23 at the CHSAA State Wrestling Championships at the Pepsi Center. Schwartz ended the season with a 43-6 record and helped Ponderosa finish as the state runner-up in the team standings.

against Legend’s Colin Lavell in the 285-pound title match, but that wasn’t the first thought out of his mouth after the match.

“My main goal was to get us into the team race and get a team trophy,” said Schultz, who will wrestler at Arizona State next season. “We finished second. That was one of the major things that made this year really good is how good we did as a team, not just individually.

How we came together was really special.”

Ponderosa, with Schultz and 126-pounder Mosha Schwartz winning state titles, finished second behind state champion Pomona and Schultz became the 24th wrestler in Colorado history to be a four-time state champion.

Schultz pinned Lavell in 52 seconds and no opponent lasted longer than a minute in the state tournament. His other tourney pins were by 52, 26 and 35 seconds. He never lost a point all season, had a 46-0 record and wrapped up his high school career with a 188-2 record.

“It (four state titles) is

Ponderosa’s Schultz signs the shirt of a young fan. something as a little kid that I wanted to do,” said Schultz. “To make it come true is incredible. Since I was a little guy to watch those guys win four, I wanted to be a part of it. It feels special to be up there with them.”

In four state tournaments, Schultz won by pin in 15 of 16 matches. Only two wrestlers lasted past the first period and he has been regarded as one of the best-ever Colorado high school wrestlers.

Ponderosa coach Tito Rinaldis realizes how fortunate he has been to watch Schultz wrestle for the Mustangs the past two seasons.

ollin Romero doesn’t feel like an icon or whatever you call a role model these days.

The Rock Canyon senior is a three-sport athlete, and these competitors are becoming harder to find in OVERTIME this age of specialization for athletes.

It has become more common for athletes to specialize and concentrate on one sport to help their chances to play at the next level and obtain possible Jim Benton college athletic scholarships.

The only place that three-sport athletes are common is at smaller Class A schools where athletes are needed to fill rosters for fall, winter and spring sports.

Romero was a standout wide receiver on the Jaguars’ football team, a point guard on the basketball team and will be at shortstop for the baseball team after the basketball season concludes.

“I feel real good about being a three-sport athlete,” said Romero. “A lot of people once they get into high school drop down to one sport but I really tried to play all three. I wasn’t really interested in playing college basketball but I still wanted to play that sport.

“A lot of people feel that it helps to put all their eggs into one sport.”

The transition between sports sometimes isn’t easy.

“It’s tough not having that break between seasons,” admitted Romero.

“It is kind of tough on your body, especially if you get like a little dink in another sport, but you have to continue on to the next sport. So you really can’t take any days off to recover.’’

Romero believes his involvement in three sports has helped him focus his free time on meaningful things and his academic studies.

Many college recruiters and coaches welcome multi-sport athletes, and playing multiple sports helps build different muscles. Athletes competing in different sports tend to have a lower injury rate.

The 5-foot-9, 160-pound Romero was the Most Valuable Player on last fall’s Rock Canyon football team and holds eight school records including career receptions (79) and career return yards (1,172).

The Bible Speaks - New Things “NEW SHERIFF IN TOWN” reads the Feb 7, 2019 Littleton Independent headline. Tyler Brown was recently sworn in as the new Arapahoe County sheriff & we wish him well as he “serves everyone in Arapahoe County”.

When a person becomes a Christian by faith in Jesus Christ many things become new. We experience a new birth & become a new spiritual creation.

We have a new relationship with God, a new love, a new life style & new values. We have new promises that cover all of life’s situations. We have a new source of power to fulfill God’s design for us, the Holy Spirit. We have a new song of joy & peace. We have a new destiny in a new heaven & a new earth & we will have a new name there.

Thank God for these grace provisions for now & eternity.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Take time from your busy schedule to check out what’s going on around you. You might find that someone has been secretly trying to pull the wool over those beautiful Sheep’s eyes.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Once again, the Bovine’s boldness pays off in uncovering the source of a disturbing workplace situation. Your personal life calls for patience, as a certain matter plays itself out.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Forget about going all out to impress someone in your personal life. Just being yourself is all that matters. A workplace decision will need more time. Don’t rush into it.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Some supersensitive Crabs might take offense at what they perceive as a slight. But a closer look points to a simple misunderstanding. The weekend holds a welcome surprise.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) Sure, you can roar your head off over someone’s failure to keep a promise. But the wiser course would be to ask why it happened. Be prepared for an answer that might well surprise you.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A developing relationship needs time to find its direction. So please be patient and resist pushing things along. A recently cooled-down workplace situation could heat up again.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Congratulations. Your wellthought-out proposal seems to be working. Someone who hasn’t agreed with you on most things in the past could turn out to be one of your major supporters.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Things seem to be going well.

However, you can still expect criticism — some of it pretty heavy. But as long as you can back up your position, you’ll be able to rise above it.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Getting together with people who care for you is a great way to get that ego boost you might feel you need at this time. Things start to look brighter by week’s end.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) You should be able to continue with your plans once you get past those temporary delays. Surprise, surprise. An offer to help comes from a most unlikely source.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Prioritizing your tasks is important this week because of all those demands you have to deal with.

The pressure eases in time for you to enjoy the weekend.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Save your energy and stay focused on what has to be done, despite all those distractions you’re likely to face. You should see some evidence of real progress by week’s end.

Local wrestlers fare well at state tourney

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA

There were 11 wrestlers from Douglas County schools that were on the podium on the final night of the 5A state wrestling tournament at the Pepsi Center.

Douglas County High had four podium finishers.

Freshman Justin Kelchen was sixth on Feb. 23, losing the 106-pound fifth place match 4-0 to Kieran Thompson of Grand Junction. Sophomore Max Black was third at 113 pounds after his 9-8 win over Alec Betran of Horizon.

Senior Jared Cabonoc finished with a 15-7 win over Brayden Roman of Pine Creek to take fifth at 138 pounds and senior Austin Kelchen was the 160-pound runner-up as he lost 5-1 in the championship match to Marquez Salazar of Adams City.

Sophomore Randy Myers of Castle View was second at 132 pounds as he lost a tough 1-0 decision to Justin Pacheco of Pomona in the championship finale when he couldn’t get a takedown to pull out a win.

Myers, who wound up with a 19-6 record, knows the title match and season could have been better.

“I didn’t finish my shots, I wasn’t going to say lazy but I didn’t finish the shots I should have,” said Myers.

Myers’ senior teammate Adrian Marquez was fourth at 120 pounds after losing 4-1 in the third-place match to Dawson Collins of Grand Junction.

Valor Christian senior Jake Welch lost 9-4 to Franklin Cruz of Pomona in the 180-pound championship match.

Valor’s Payton Polson was fourth at 170 pounds and Jack Howell was sixth at 152 pounds.

“It was a good season, I prepared well,” said Welch who lost only three of 41 matches. “I prepared the best I could for the match and it was a tough loss. I was just thankful to have the opportunity.”

ThunderRidge had two wrestlers place as Aiden Okamura was sixth at 120 pounds and Brock Schilling came in sixth at 180 pounds.

Ponderosa, which was second in the team standings behind state champion Pomona, had a pair of individual champions.

Boys basketball playoffs: Local roundup STAFF REPORT

Six south metro-area teams won second-round games Feb. 23 in the CHSAA boys state basketball playoffs. Sweet 16 games were scheduled for Feb. 27 with Great 8 games set to be played March 2 at the Denver Coliseum.

Top-seeded Chaparral (20-4) downed Fossil Ridge, 84-55, as senior Bryce Matthews led the team with 21 points and 11 rebounds. No. 2 Mountain Vista (22-2) had to go into overtime before eliminating No. 34 Rocky Mountain, 48-45. Ben Grusing topped the Golden Eagles with 16 points.

Senior Kevin Sax scored 21 points as No. 5 ThunderRidge (19-5) downed No. 28 Poudre, 63-46. No. 11 Rock Canyon (17-7) advanced with a 77-55

WRESTLING FROM PAGE 24

“As a second-year head coach, I’m probably one of the luckiest guys on the planet to experience that right off the bat,” said Rinaldis. “People say he’s one in a million but I don’t think that does him justice — he’s one in a trillion.”

Schultz was one of four Ponderosa wrestlers to place and the school has now produced 42 individual state champions in 25 seasons.

Schwartz said words couldn’t describe his feeling after he scored an

win over Brighton. Junior Brode Aho paced the Jaguars’ balanced scoring output with 13 points.

No. 23 Highlands Ranch (16-9) upset No. 10 Regis Jesuit, 49-48, on Ryker Cisarik’s last-second layup.

No. 24 Cherry Creek (13-12) surprised No. 9 Columbine and pulled off a 77-65 victory. No. 7 Smoky Hill ousted No. 26 Douglas County, 82-67.

No. 13 Eaglecrest ended the season for No. 20 Legend with a 75-67 victory.

Four teams advanced out of the first round on Feb. 20.Cherry Creek downed No. 41 Doherty, 61-45, with Myles Purchase leading the way for the Bruins with 19 points. Legend got past No. 45 Aurora Central, 53-41.

Highlands Ranch beat Vista Peak, 4938 and No. 26 Douglas County turned back Far Northeast, 64-54.

Valor Christian had its seven-game win streak snapped as the No. 30 Eagles were eliminated after a 69-66 first-round loss to No. 35 Windsor despite a double-double of 18 points and 10 rebounds from junior Roger Rosengarten.

In a 4A first-round game, Ponderosa downed Silver Creek, 62-48, and the Mustangs, seeded 33rd, lost 69-52 to top-seeded Lewis Palmer in the second round.

In the 3A Metro District championship game on Feb. 23, third-seeded Lutheran (17-5) downed top-seed Manual, 68-52, and earned a berth in the 3A regional/state tournament, which starts March 1. The Lions beat Jefferson Academy, 41-32 in a Feb. 19 first-round game and got past Faith Christian, 58-45, in the semifinals.

11-5 win over Pomona’s Wyatt Yapoujian to capture the state title and finish the campaign with a 43-6 record.

Sophomore Jaron Mahler was the 120-pound runner-up. He lost 8-5 to Daniel Cardenas of Pomona in the championship match. Sophomore Traevin Osborn was third at 132 pounds for Ponderosa and he downed Miguel Mendoza of Overland, 8-4 in the title match. Osborn was 39-9 this season.

Ponderosa has a history of wrestling success with 10 state championships but the last team title came in 2010. This year marked the fourth time the school has finished second and the first since 2013.

“It’s been six or seven years since we’ve taken home some hardware and finally see all the hard work pay off,” said Rinaldis. “It’s nice to finally take a trophy back to Pondo.

“It’s going to be hard to lose guys like Mosha and Cohl, who were such consistent winners. We have a lot of guys waiting in the wings who are going to step up. We had some underclassmen who really stepped up this year.”

Legend had two wrestlers place.

Lavell was the runner-up to Schultz at 285 pounds and junior Kade Syddal was fourth at 138 pounds after losing to Alex Alvarez of Poudre in the thirdplace match.

BENTON FROM PAGE 24

He had baseball offers from several schools but decided to take a scholarship offer to play football next season at Colorado School of Mines.

With the basketball season wrapping up and baseball practice starting, Romero will be walking up the incline to the Rock Canyon baseball field.

“With baseball it is a little different,” Romero said. “I have been swinging a bat but you need to throw the baseball. It will take a week and a half to go full out with the arm throwing the baseball.”

Evans scholarship winners There were five area caddies among this year’s 13 Evans Scholar recipients from Colorado. All five will receive full-tuition and housing scholarship to attend the University of Colorado.

Evans scholarships are awarded to high-achieving caddies with significant financial need.

The area winners were Chloe Bowlen of Castle Rock, who attends Colorado Early College in Parker, Samuel Dahm of Chaparral High School, Michael Corrigan, a 2018 graduate of Legacy, Grant Gorman of Lakewood High School and Amelia Moenster of Rock Canyon High School.
