drnews@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — Two of three people arrested Monday in connection with a weekend homicide in Fairfield appeared in court Monday but did not enter pleas. The brother and sister, both residents of Pittsburg, face charges in connection with the death of Leilani Beauchamp, 19, of Carmel. Her remains were found Sunday in rural Monterey County, according to the Fairfield Police Department. Jessica Y. Quintanilla, 21, of Pittsburg, was arrested at 3:15 a.m. Monday in her home- parra-peralta town on suspicion of murder and was held without bail in the Solano County jail. Marco A. Quintanilla, 27, of Pittsburg, was arrested minutes later at the same location on suspicion of being an accessory to murder and for a suspected parole violation, for which he was held without bail. Marco Quintanilla is currently on parole for a felony conviction for attempted murder, police report. Both appeared in a Fairfield court Monday for arraignment. They are scheduled to return to court at 1:30 p.m. Thursday for further arraignment. No charges have been filed against a third person arrested Monday in connection with Beauchamp’s death. Airman 1st Class Juan E. Parra-Peralta, 20, of Fairfield, serves with the 60th Aerial Port Squadron at Travis Air Force Base. He was taken into custody shortly after 8:35 a.m. Monday at the headquarters for the 60th Air Mobility Wing at the base and was booked into the county jail on suspicion of being an accessory to a murder. Maj. Amanda Farr, a spokeswoman for the base, said Tuesday that Parra-Peralta posted bail See Pleas, Page A8

Supervisors not looking ‘to blow up’ the districts they represent Daily Republic Staff

drnews@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — Tiffanee Jones told the Solano County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday that they should strongly consider the redistricting option that has the most radical changes to the boundaries. She said the plan represents the changing county better than the others. Jones, from Vallejo, was on the advisory committee that conducted the public outreach for the Census 2020 redistricting effort. But the comments from the board members clearly show the have no appetite for “blowing up” the existing districts, preferring to keep the district map as close to existing boundaries as population shifts allow. Board Chairman John Vasquez said that the 100 or 200 individuals who participated in those public meetings do not represent enough of the overall population to be representative of the whole. “Politicians know their districts better than the communities,” he said. The board was presented three draft district maps dividing the new census population of 447,857. Plan A “. . . reflects minimal changes to existing supervisorial district boundaries with a focus on minor adjustments between Districts 4 and 5 to close the gap in the overall population . . . and bring their populations closer to ideal population size of 89,571. This is primarily accomplished by shifting a small area of southeast Vacaville from See Districts, Page A8

FAIRFIELD — There’s only one job that Matt Luckenbach hasn’t had in the Fairfield Fire Department, and coming in January, that one will be next. Luckenbach, 49, will become the new fire chief as the calendar turns. Current Chief Tony Velasquez, 50, announced his retirement last month with his final day set for Dec. 30. “Man, I’m humbled and excited,” Luckenbach said. “I’m humbled by the history we have here. I’ve been a lifetime member since the early ‘90s. I understand where we are and where we want to be.” Luckenbach is a born and raised product of Fairfield. He graduated

into it and is really committed to the profession.” Luckenbach will oversee a department with an operating budget of $26 million with some 70 firefighters now, along with an extensive support staff. There are five fire stations with a sixth on the way in the future. Luckenbach said there are now 21 firefighters on duty each day. He said the number was 10 a day when he started in the 1990s. The department just this week christened a brand-new Truck 37, which replaces its 15-year-old truck, which will be placed on reserve. The new truck will be housed at Station 37 at 1200 Kentucky St. See Chief, Page A8

Supervisors reject oversight committee for Sheriff’s Office Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — The Solano County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday re-enforced the independence of the Sheriff’s Office and the authority of the elected sheriff. The board rejected a proposal for an independent citizen oversight committee to look into department practices – issues such as the use of force and whether fringe groups, even extremists, are working within the rank and file. Sheriff Tom Ferrara denied that kind of fringe representation existed in the department, and said if he ever found it, he would remove it. Instead the board voted 4-1 to have board Chairman John Vasquez and County Administrator Birgitta Corsello work with Ferrara on developing an annual or twice-annual public forum.

from Fairfield High School in 1990, had his fire training at Solano Community College and had his paramedic training in Vacaville. He started in the department as a volunteer in 1992 and joined full-time in 1998. Luckenbach, currently velasquez the deputy chief, has really held every position in the department, including that of fire marshal, which he said might be a first. “Sometimes in life when you do the right thing, nobody is looking,” Velasquez said. “Well, I’ve been looking the whole time at what Matt has done. He obviously has a lot of character, he’s very dynamic, wellspoken and just a really nice guy. He has put a lot of time and hard work

We drove to the farm in a then come inside to drink cocoa steady drizzle. Clouds hid the and thaw my feet by the fire. mountains, thick and heavy as My grandmother and I would my grandmother’s quilts. The next day, when the go hunting in spring for anything in bloom – trees and herbs clouds parted, I went out to see a sight I will never forget. I yelled and all sort of wildflowers. She

and my grandmother came running. “Look!” I shouted, pointing at what looked to me like flames, “the mountains are on fire!” She looked. Then she laughed. “That’s not fire, child,” she said. “That’s just fall.” I wish you could’ve seen it. Maybe you have seen a fall of your own, one that you will never forget. I hope so. Those leaves left their mark on my soul. Fall became my forever favorite season. Not just for its colors, but for other things, too. Books we read. Talks we shared. Good times we spent together. We did all those things in every season. But in fall, the days grew shorter. And longer evenings gave us more time for things that meant the most. I remember the smell of my grandmother’s stew simmering in a cast iron pot on her wood

stove. She made it with venison my dad had hunted. I swear, a bowl of that stew and a hunk of her cornbread would make your eyes roll back in your head. That was long ago, but I recall it clearly. Some memories are gifts that stay with us forever. Life took me west and I left the mountains, but the mountains never left me. I raised my children in a different world, but with the same values I learned as a child. They love fall, as I do, for mostly the same reasons. Thirty years ago this month, my dad took his life. His health was failing and he was weary of hospitals. It shouldn’t have surprised me, but it still does. He told me once, after his father died, that dying is part of life – that it’s how old things fulfill their purpose and make room on the Earth for the new. Those words sing a silent hymn in my

heart whenever I watch leaves fall to Earth. When seasons change, they remind us that life keeps moving. We recall good times gone by, give thanks for the present, and dare to look forward to what lies ahead. For supper tonight, I made a stew in my grandmother’s old cast iron pot. I used beef, not venison. It wasn’t as good as her stew, but we liked it. Tomorrow we’ll have leftovers. Maybe I’ll even bake cornbread. I wish you could join us. Fall will always be my favorite time of year. But the best season to celebrate life is any time, any place, every chance we’re given.

FAIRFIELD — It will be a few more days before Solano County health officials will know if Halloween festivities have caused a bump in coronavirus cases. In the meantime, the Public Health Division on Monday reported 102 additional coronavirus cases since Friday’s update – 99 actually during that three-day period – for a pandemic total of 45,824. The 10-day daily case average Monday was 28.4, the county reported. That compares to a 41-case average Friday. Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer, said he expects those weekend numbers to be adjusted as late reports come in during the week – a pattern experienced for a couple of months. The county agency also reported it is waiting for final approval by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and then the state, to

Vacaville school board looks to update positions, add others, boost some sub pay Susan Hiland shiland@dailyrepublic.net

VACAVILLE — The Vacaville school board will be updating this week on salaries and classifications of personnel titles. Assistant Superintendent Chris Hulett is requesting approval of a Memorandum of Understanding and increase of $50 per day to the offduty substitute rate for Vacaville Teachers Asso-

ciation members for the 2021-22 school year. This increase reflects the same increase the district gave to regular substitutes earlier this year. The board approved a temporary increase to the Certificated Substitute Salary Schedule on Sept. 23. This increase added $50 to all daily rates. This proposal reflects the same increase to the VTA Off-Duty rate on its schedule K.

The district would pay this rate to current VTA members who substitute on off-duty days, which according to a staff report is uncommon. No employees earned this substitute pay in the 2020-21 school year. Employees will only earn this salary if they are a part-time elementary teacher who works certain days of the week, and then sub on an off day. There was no cost

last year, as no teacher subbed on off-duty days. The new off-duty time daily rate for substitutes (not during summer school) will be $224.07 and long-term subbing (16 to 29 days) rate on off-duty time will be 240.41. The board will also consider a request from of Director Human Resources Manolo Garcia See School, Page A4

Born Rita June Gladys Frost in Chevington, Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk, England. The only child to Emma Frost and stepfather, Arthur Deaves. As a child growing up during WWII, Rita enjoyed horses, piano lessons, drawing and painting, and working in the garden. This was all encouraged by her stepfather, Uncle Percy and Aunt Lucy. In Bury St. Edmunds she worked in the Co-op managing the China Department. When a blind date failed at the local pub, she met ‘a yank’, an Air Force Airman stationed nearby at Shepherd’s Grove. They married on Sept. 24, 1955. Their daughter, Anita, was born in 1957 and 13 months later their son, Bruce, was born. As an Air Force family, they traveled to Kansas City, Missouri, to South Ruislip AFB, England, to Scott AFB, Illinois, to Torrejon AFB, in Spain, and ended up at Travis AFB. Rita was a Girl Scout

and Cub Scout leader, a Vanden High School Band Booster, and a chaperone at school functions. Rita was also involved in the British Wives Club, the Beta Sigma Phi sorority, the Chatterbox Club, and worked as a Red Cross volunteer. Rita managed a local bookstore for more than 19 years. She was an avid artist and was an active participant in Debra Hamil’s art class at the Suisun Senior Center. Rita leaves behind her daughter, Anita Nygren; son, Dr. Bruce Little; fur babies, Dreamer and Bella; sorority sister, Karen Arnn and family; and numerous wonderful lifelong friends.

to update the job description and salary range for the new classified management position of Transportation Supervisor and Driver Instructor and the revised 2021-22 Classified Management Salary Schedule. The position is now listed in the Classified Employee Salary as school Schedule bus driver. Existing salary ranges would be renumbered as a result of the addition of these changes. The additional cost to the general fund due to the reclassification of the School Bus Driver Instructor from a classified position to the classified management position of Transportation Supervisor and Driver Instructor is as follows: $30,929 in 2021-22, $30,495 in 2022-23 and $29,944 in 2023-24. The reclassification is expected to result in the increased attraction of qualified candidates and retention

of employees in this classification, according to a staff report. “While there is an increased cost with this reclassification, the intended result is a reduction or elimination for contracting transportation services which are far more costly to the district than our own drivers,” according to the staff report. “Therefore, the net result could ultimately provide significant cost savings to the district.” Along with those changes, the district is looking to create a parent liaison position, something new to the district. The Parent Liaison position is a clerical position that supports school site front office staff with communication with parents, students and community members, according to a staff report. The regular board meeting will begin at 6:30 p.m. Thursday at 401 Nut Tree Road. The meeting may be viewed online.

FAIRFIELD — The rain that wetted Solano County and surrounding areas Monday did not bring the kind of localized flooding problems that the last storms brought, but officials said it should still serve as a reminder to be prepared for the storms to come. The National Weather Service out of Sacramento said the storm was not expected to drop more than a quarter-inch of rain on Solano County, with the greatest amounts likely to fall on Green Valley and northern Vacaville. Travis Air Force Base recorded 0.1 inches of rainfall Monday. The last series of storms brought close to 6 inches, the weather service reported. The recent series of storms also brought localized flooding, downed

However, this latest storm was “not expected to be significant,” said Robyn Rains, the assistant manager of the county Office of Emergency Service, so there were no “preventative measures (taken for) this storm.”

Rains said the county was fortunate to have a number of dry days between the storms so the ground could better absorb the effects of the first set of storms before getting more water Monday. However, Rains urged residents to use the county’s webpage, solanocounty.com/getreadysolano, to learn more about what they can do to be prepared for the winter storms. Sand continues to be available at area rural fire stations for those residents in need. Rains also encouraged anyone who has not already signed up for Alert Solano to do so. The service sends out emergency messages to specific areas that could be facing disaster-related problems, including prompts on evacuations if needed. The next storm will be coming through the area Monday.

trend is toward liberalizing and eliminating statutes of limitation. In the last several years, New York, New Jersey, North Carolina, California, Arizona, Arkansas, Maine, Montana and Louisiana have all passed legislation that gives victims of child sexual abuse an open “window” of time (ranging from one to three years) to pursue civil actions regardless of how long ago the abuse happened. I currently have the honor of representing victims in cases in each of these states. Other states – like my home state of Oregon, as well as Washington, New Mexico and others – have for many years used what is known as a “discovery rule.” Discovery rules tie the time limit on a victim’s civil legal claims to the victim’s subjective delayed discovery of the long-term impacts they have suffered. This is another mechanism of giving victims more time and a greater opportunity for justice. While not every state has helpful laws for victims (yet), the bottom line is that the law is changing in many states to give victims more time. Of course, like in any legal case, the individual facts and circumstances vary, and I highly recommend that any victim of abuse consult with an attorney who is experienced in representing child abuse victims.

nine. That potential four-spade opening seems like a reasonable speculation to me. It might make, and if it fails, perhaps it will be a good sacrifice. However, all 16 players at Bridge Base Online opened one spade. After West’s takeout double and North’s pass, East wondered about passing also, to convert his partner’s takeout double into one for penalties. He wisely decided that his trumps were too weak, so he advanced with one no-trump. However, when South persevered to three spades, East felt that enough was enough and doubled. West led the diamond ace: three, two, nine. She continued with the diamond king: five, seven, spade four. South played a low heart, and West paused. Note that East had discouraged at trick one.

Netflix launches into video games for Android devices Tribune Content Agency Netflix Inc., the video-streaming giant, began its expected foray into video games with the introduction of five mobile games, playable initially on Android devices. The titles are included in a Netflix subscription, and there’ll be no advertising or additional purchases required, Mike Verdu, Netflix’s vice president of game development, said Tuesday. The streaming company has targeted video games as its next big thing – it’s an industry that’s larger than the movie and TV businesses. Players logging in will see a dedicated games row and tab where

they can choose which titles to play. Games for Apple Inc.’s iPhone are also planned. The initial offering includes titles linked to Netflix shows, such as "Stranger Things: 1984" and "Stranger Things 3: The Game." Also included are "Shooting Hoops," "Card Blast" and "Teeter Up." Bloomberg first reported the company’s push into the business in July. The company said the games aren’t available on kids profiles and that a PIN – like the one used to rope off adult titles – will be required to play. Some will be available to play offline. Shares of Netflix finished last quarter with 214 million almost subscribers.

work closely together and he has enjoyed watching his colleagues climb through the ranks. “It’s nice to see where we are now from where I started with it,” Velasquez said. “Whatever you do in public service, it takes time to get things done. The support from the city, City Council, the city manager is nice to see where it is. I think Chief Luckenbach can take it to the next level.”

Velasquez led the department starting in January 1992. He had time with Solano Garbage, now Republic Services, before joining the department and also had a stint with Cal Fire. “Tony has been in charge for nine years and that guy is a legend,” Luckenbach said. “He has made some amazing changes.”

Ferrara agreed to the forum, but called the oversight committee “unwarranted” and and “inappropriate” promised to push back against any effort to create such a panel, even if it was in the form of a citizens advisory board that had similar intent. There were several members of the public who spoke in favor of the oversight committee. “This is not a racial issues. This is not a political issues,” one caller said. “This is a community issue.” “The Sheriff’s Office is a closed box,” another caller said. Oversight by the grand

jury, the courts and ultimately the voters were pointed to as examples of existing oversight and balance by Jim McCully, who spent 40 years in law enforcement and has served on the civil grand jury in the past. “My concern is we have a solution looking for a problem,” McCully said of the call for an oversight board. Most of the discussion was dominated by Supervisor Erin Hannigan’s questions to Ferrara, including questions of race and gender representation in the department. The sheriff noted the improvements that have

been made over the years, but said the real issue is getting members of minority groups interested in law enforcement as a career. Race did get sprinkled into the discussion, including one exchange when Spering said one person’s claim of never having a positive encounter with a police officer was nothing more than an agenda being pushed. Hannigan countered and said Spering did not grow up Black and has no idea about the generational lessons of distrust that exists in the Black community.

Monday, Nov. 1

Sheriff From Page One Mashburn’s motion was amended several times from his original call for the board to give the sheriff “whatever he needed” to address the issues of concern. Supervisor Jim Spering wanted more certain language about the forum in the motion, but Mashburn did not concede. “I don’t think we have the constitutional authority to direct the sheriff to have a forum,” Mashburn said.

“thinking a little selfish” by traveling and spending more time with his wife. “I’m ready to take a deep breath,” Velasquez said. “I’ve been the chief for almost nine years. It’s nice to look back at all we’ve accomplished. The city and the department are on a really good trajectory right now.” Velazquez said he will miss all the great relationships he has built over the years. Firefighters

Monday, was released to his first sergeant and is back on duty pending criminal proceedings in the case. Parra-Peralta is currently living on the base since his off-base home is now a crime scene, Farr said. Farr said base leadership is keeping watch over Parra-Peralta to ensure he does everything that’s required of him as the criminal case advances. “He’s under tight

Vallejo and Mare Island, with District 2 including eastern Vallejo, Benicia and Green Valley,” the county reported. “Suisun City, eastern Fairfield and Travis Air Force Base are included in District 5. The southern border of District 3 is the railroad tracks and includes western Fairfield and some of the rural, unincorporated area north and west of the city. District 4 expands to include more of Vacaville similar to the other two plan alternatives.” The 1st District is represented by Supervisor Erin Hannigan; the 2nd District by Supervisor Monica Brown; the 3rd District by Supervisor Jim Spering; the 4th District by Supervisor John Vasquez; and the 5th District by Supervisor Mitch Mashburn. The current terms of Spering and Vasquez end after 2022. The others have terms that go through 2024. The board members clearly preferred Plan A with some minor tweaks, as suggested by Spering, to remove a small part of Suisun City from the 5th

District, and make up the population difference by giving more of Travis Air Force Base to the 5th District. Brown wanted to keep a portion of Fairfield that had been removed from the 2nd District because of her attachment to a school with

supervision from his leadership but he is present for duty,” Farr said. Parra-Peralta came to the U.S. from Colombia in 2014 when he was 13 years old, according to information previously release by the base. Fairfield police took a missing persons report Saturday evening concerning Beauchamp, who was last seen early that morning at a Halloween party in Sacramento. Beauchamp is reported to have left with two men, both active duty Air Force members living in a residence on Cascade Lane in Fairfield, according to a police

press release. Fairfield police officers and members of the Travis Air Force Base’s Office of Special Investigation worked together and determined a homicide occurred at the residence on Cascade Lane, according to the press release. Fairfield detectives also worked with the Monterey County Sheriff’s Department and found Beauchamp’s remains in a rural area between Monterey and Salinas. Police confirmed Tuesday afternoon that Jessica and Marco Quintanilla are brother and sister.

Parra-Peralta lives at the Cascade Lane address with another airman. The name of that airman was not released because he is not involved in the investigation, police report. Beauchamp’s death is Fairfield’s eighth reported homicide of 2021. Beauchamp’s Facebook page shows her hometown as Sacramento and that she studied at Monterey Peninsula College. Those who have not been contacted by a detective and have information about this case are asked to call the Investigations Bureau at 707-428-7600.

Road closure ahead for offramp at I-80, West Texas Daily Republic Staff

drnews@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — The eastbound offramp at Interstate 80 and West Texas Street will be closed from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday and from 7 p.m. Friday until midnight Sunday. Traffic control devices will be in place to detour motorist around the construction zone. The work is being completed as part of the city of Fairfield’s West Texas Gateway and Fairfield Transportation Center slip-ramp improvement project. For questions, contact the Public Works Department at 707-428-7485. For 24/7 traffic updates, visit 511.org. For real-time information, visit http:// quickmap.dot.ca.gov.

Issues From Page A3 describing the priority issues, there are specific points of interest under the categories of Agriculture/ Natural Resources and Water; General Government; Health and Human Services; Housing, Community and Economic Development, and Workforce Development; Public Safety and Emergency Disaster Preparedness and Response; Resource Management, Environmental Health and Sustainability; Transportation; as well as Veterans and Veterans Affairs. The highlighted priority issues under the federal platform – defined as those that have a significant impact on county business, are funding for Key Water Infrastructure Projects; Health and Human Services; Housing, Economic Development and

VALLEJO — the state Department of Transportation on Tuesday canceled a full overnight closure of westbound Interstate 80 in Vallejo scheduled from 11 p.m. Wednesday to 4 a.m. Thursday due to weather. The full overnight closure of eastbound I-80 in Vallejo will continue from 11:59 p.m. Thursday until 5 a.m. Friday, with crews working on the vertical clearance on the Benicia Road overcrossing. This closure is dependent on

Transportation Programs; Military Presence; Public Safety, Emergency Preparedness and Resilience; and the SacramentoSan Joaquin Delta and Suisun Marsh. Among the key points within those areas are greater support for foster care-related issues, fighting sexual exploitation of youth and mental health support. The county also is seeking greater support in the areas of homelessness, particularly among disabled and senior adults. Protection and enhancement of Travis Air Force Base is a focus, as are crime reduction, and addressing climate change and extreme weather events, including wildfires and floods. The county also wants a seat at the decision-makers table when considering Delta issues, and specifically, the county opposes any federal funding for water conveyance systems

weather conditions and may be canceled due to inclement weather, Caltrans reports. travMotorists eling eastbound on I-80 will need to access Interstate 780 to Highway 29 to Highway 37 back onto eastbound I-80. A 24-hour shuttle service will be available for pedestrians and bicyclists who need to safely cross the Benicia Road overcrossing. One shuttle stop will be located on each side of the bridge. Arrangements can be made by calling 1-415-263-4000. such as the proposed tunnel project. That state platform touches on a number of the same issues, but also emphasizes opposition to revenue shifts away from the counties. “Oppose proposals to restructure, realign or otherwise shift the cost of state programs to local government, without commensurate compensation and a legislative ability for counties to draw down available federal funding. Support efforts to distribute public safety realignment funds using an equitable formula based on population. Support efforts to improve the stability of current county revenue sources. Oppose any realignment initiatives, which fail to fully fund services shifted to the county,” the document states.

Braves defeat Astros to win World Series Gabriel Burns THE ATLANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION

HOUSTON — When the Braves reported to spring training in February, they had championship aspirations. They fell just short last October and spent the winter supplementing a talented young core that’d embarked on three postseason runs. They entered this season believing they’d assembled a roster, both talent and chemistry-wise, that could finally break through. Nobody could’ve imagined how the ensuing journey

would unfold. Twenty-six years and 16 postseason appearances since that fateful Oct. 28 day in 1995, the Braves brought Atlanta its second World Series championship Tuesday in Houston. This team’s one-of-a-kind story will be shared and referenced across generations with the simplest yet most invaluable lesson: never give up. The Braves won the World Series by defeating the Astros 7-0 in Game 6, completing one of the most improbable runs in professional sports history. Exactly 9,502 days after Bobby

Cox’s Braves delivered Atlanta its first title, Brian Snitker, a Cox disciple who’s spent over four decades in the organization, led the Braves to their second championship – in the unlikeliest of fashions. It was hard to fathom *this* being the Braves team that separated itself from past postseason disappointment. Then again, maybe it wasn’t. Uphill climbs were like strolls on the treadmill for these Braves. Their propensity for overcoming the odds was part of their charm. It formed their identity. It’s the reason they sit atop

the baseball world in 2021. And its why they’ll be remembered throughout the south for eons. Their final victory was appropriately highlighted by slugger Jorge Soler, one of the July acquisitions forever etched in Braves history. Soler’s colossal third-inning homer off Luis Garcia soared over left field and out of Minute Maid Park, giving the Braves a three-run lead they wouldn’t relinquish. It was Joc Pederson in the NL Division Series against Milwaukee. It was Eddie Rosario in the NL Championship Series against the Dodgers. It was

ALUMNI UPDATE

Soler in the World Series. The Braves orchestrated perhaps the greatest trade deadline in MLB history, turning a lost campaign into one that resulted in a parade. The Braves had floundered for months. Injuries dominated the headlines. The names are well known at this juncture: Mike Soroka never pitched. Travis d’Arnaud missed months. Huascar Ynoa punched a bench. Marcell Ozuna was injured and arrested for domestic violence. Ian Anderson See Braves, Page B10

Brandon Talton’s 15 points as kicker for the University of Nevada football team in the Wolf Pack’s 51-20 win over in-state rival UNLV weren’t the difference in the game, but were impressive nonetheless. Impressive enough for the Vacaville High graduate to earn his second Mountain West Conference Special Teams Player of the Week in less than a month. Talton booted three field goals, the first, a 52-yarder, was his longest of the season and second-longest in his career behind a 56-yarder to beat Purdue in 2019. The kick came at the conclusion of a remarkable drive in which the

Wolf Pack (6-2, 3-1 MWC), went 39 yards in 14 plays, converting once on fourth down – from their own 34 – and twice on third down, eating up 7 minutes, 17 seconds, nearly half the first quarter, in the process. Talton later booted field goals of 23 and 22 yards, TALTON adding six extra points along the way. His 15 points tied a season high achieved in a 41-31 win over Boise State on Oct. 2, which was the first time he was named MWC Special Teams Player of the Week this season. The junior kicker keeps moving up on Nevada’s all-time lists, his 246 career kicking points ranking sixth, his 53 career field goals

ranking third and his 17 field goals this year ranking eighth. Carson Strong (Wood) had another solid game as Nevada’s quarterback, completing 37-of-49 passes for 417 yards and four touchdowns with one interception. Tayvian Cunningham (Wood) caught a 73-yard touchdown pass to tie the score at 7-7, but Arizona (0-8, 0-5 Pac-12) trailed the rest of the way in a 41-34 loss to USC. Cunningham finished with three catches for 116 yards and also returned a kickoff 16 yards. In San Diego’s 21-14 win over See Alumni, Page B2

Georgia grabs top spot in first playoff rankings; Cincinnati lands at No. 6 Tribune Content Agency Georgia grabbed the top spot in the first College Football Playoff rankings but it was Cincinnati and Oregon who stole the headlines. It was the 31st appearance by the Bulldogs (8-0) and the third time they’ve been No. 1 in the rankings but the first since Nov. 7, 2017. Much of the focus on the first rankings centered around where the committee would place undefeated Cincinnati (8-0). The Bearcats are looking to become the first Group of 5 program to make the playoff

but they face a perceived uphill climb with the committee ranking them at No. 6. Alabama (7-1) and Michigan State (8-0) came in at Nos. 2 and No. 3, respectively, but it was the committee’s decision to put Oregon (7-1) at No. 4 that was somewhat of a surprise as the Ducks wound up one spot ahead of Ohio State (7-1) at No. 5. Oregon defeated the Buckeyes, 35-28 on Sept. 11 with their only loss coming against a struggling Stanford (3-5) on Oct. 2. Alabama and Ohio State have appeared in every ranking (43) since the inception of the

playoff in 2014. Michigan (7-1) came in at No. 7 despite stumbling late against Michigan State. Oklahoma (9-0) was ranked No. 8 as the Sooners haven’t looked impressive, struggling in one-score wins over Tulane, Nebraska, West Virginia, Kansas State and Texas. Notre Dame (7-1) rounded out the top 10. This is the first of six weekly rankings released by the 13-member selection committee, with the final standings revealed on Sunday, Dec. 5. Those rankings will determine thefoursemifinalistsalong with the teams taking part in the New Year’s Six bowl games.

The two semifinals, which rotate annually, will take place in Dallas at the Cotton Bowl and in Miami at the Orange Bowl on Friday, Dec. 31. The Peach (Dec. 30), Fiesta (Jan. 1), Rose (Jan. 1) and Sugar (Jan. 1) bowls host the rest of the New Year’s Six games. The top-ranked conference champion from the Group of 5 leagues automatically earns a spot in one of the New Year’s Six Access bowl games. The College Football Playoff National Championship Game is slated for Monday, Jan. 10 at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.

STOCKTON — The playing conditions were less than ideal, but the Rodriguez High girls golf team still made history in the Sac-Joaquin Section Masters tournament, Monday. With Darla May Dela Torre firing a 72 and Nikki Chindavong and Erica Villegas close behind with 74s, the Mustangs became the first city golf team – girls or boys – to advance to the Northern California Championships by placing third in the SJS Masters at The Reserve at Spanos Park. With Destiny Rose Mendiola adding an 89, Noelle Concepcion a 96 and Tristiane Soto a 111, Rodriguez finished third with a team score of 405 to claim one of the three NorCal qualifying spots. The top three individuals not on the top three teams also advanced. “Staying focused was key today, allowing them

to keep moving and be positive about their play,” said Rodriguez coach Rodney Peters. Granite Bay finished first at 384, followed by Pleasant Grove of Elk Grove at 393. The Mustangs needed every stroke as Lodi was a close fourth at 407, followed by Christian Brothers of Sacramento in fifth at 413. Dela Torre’s 72 was the fourth-best overall score, while Chindavong and Villegas finished in a three-way tie for 12th. The Northern California Championship is Monday at Berkeley Country Club in El Cerrito. The top three teams and top nine individuals not from the top three teams move on to the CIF State Championship is Nov. 16 at Poppy Hills Golf Course in Pebble Beach. The city’s previous NorCal participants were Armijo’s Joe Huarte and Aaron Beverly. See Local, Page B10

Henry Ruggs III released by Raiders, faces DUI charge related to fatal crash The Washington Post Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs III will be charged with driving under the influence resulting in death in connection to a fatal vehicle crash in which he was involved early Tuesday morning, Las Vegas police said. The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said in a written statement issued through its office of public information that Ruggs “remained on scene and showed signs of impairment. He was transported to UMC hospital to be treated for non-life-threatening injuries. Ruggs will be charged with DUI resulting in death.

The team also said in its initial statement, “We are devastated by the loss of life and our thoughts and prayers go out to the victim’s family. We are in the process of gathering information and will have no further comment at this time.” According to the police statement, officers responded at about 3:39 a.m. local time to a traffic collision near the intersection of South Rainbow Boulevard and South Spring Valley Parkway.

SF case tests state’s will on housing crisis

alifornia politicians have talked for years about cracking down on local governments that arbitrarily reject muchneeded housing projects and have even passed some laws to that effect. However, as the housing crisis has worsened, threatening to derail the state’s economy, there has been little or no real effort to force the issue, and local officials continue to cave in to local anti-housing sentiment. An especially blatant example of local footdragging on housing has arisen in San Francisco and it will test whether state officials will match their rhetoric with action. San Francisco’s Board of Supervisors (its city council) Dan Walters voted 8-3 to reject a 495-unit apartment development in the heart of downtown at 6th and Market streets, a site now used for parking and homeless encampments. The rejection followed an earlier action that stalled a project of 302 microunits. Supervisors who voted against the development offered various rationales, but it appears that one unspoken factor may be retribution against Supervisor Matt Haney, whose district includes the project, and who supported it. Haney is running for one of San Francisco’s seats in the state Assembly against Davis Campos, whom most other supervisors support. “This is the kind of project we’ve been asking for, which is a lot of units built for families right by transit,” Haney told the San Francisco Chronicle. “For God’s sake, it’s a Nordstrom valet lot.” Haney’s not the only San Francisco politician critical of the Board of Supervisors. It’s also an embarrassment for state Sen. Scott Wiener, the Legislature’s foremost advocate of removing roadblocks to new housing and the author of several bills aimed at overcoming local opposition to projects. “When San Francisco acts like this, it sends a very negative message to the rest of the region,” Wiener told the Chronicle. “We have been pushing other cities to do their share, to be better, so when San Francisco does something like this, it puts the proverbial turd in the punch bowl.” Wiener sees the rejection as violating the Housing Accountability Act, meant to make it difficult for local governments to reject projects that meet pre-existing zoning laws. Although used for parking, the lot in question is zoned for housing and is listed as a residential site in plans San Francisco submitted to the state. “The point of the HAA is not to change the rules in the middle of the game,” Wiener said. “If a project complies with the existing rules in terms of density and height, you can’t reject the project unless (there’s a) specific health and safety problem, which there is not in this case.” With Haney and Wiener stirring the pot, the rejection is a test for the state Department of Housing and Community Development, which issues the housing quotas that regions and local governments are supposed to meet and which has new powers to enforce them. State housing director Gustavo Velasquez told the Chronicle that his agency’s attorneys are examining whether the Board of Supervisors violated the Housing Accountability Act or the California Environmental Quality Act. CEQA comes into play because one of the rationales supervisors offered for stalling the project is that its environmental impact report is faulty. Even if the state intervenes, the impact would not be instantaneous. Velasquez would send the city a warning letter and if that doesn’t work, the state would file suit. However, it could take years for the issue to wind through the courts, meaning the project’s costs would continue to mount, perhaps too high for it to continue. That’s what often happens when local officials go into stall mode.

Seven-member South Korean K-pop boy band BTS performs at The Rose Bowl in Pasadena, May 4, 2019.

The rise and rise of K-pop: From BTS to ‘Parasite’ to ‘Squid Game’ Tribune Content Agency The K-pop fans are crazy for Korea. Over the past two years, 30-year-old media professional Yoomi Park has traveled to South Korea, Japan and Canada, making new friends in Taiwan, Malaysia, Vietnam and around Europe – all because of a shared passion for a K-pop supergroup called Twice. Park, along with new multinational friends, are hallyu (Korean wave) fans – people dedicated to, or sometimes obsessed with, South Korean popular culture, including music, drama and film. An estimate released by the Korea Foundation figured there were about 105 million hallyu fans spread throughout 109 countries excluding South Korea in September 2020 – a 43% increase from four years ago, when around 73 million people were K-pop fans. Today, the Korean pop takeover – which may have begun with BoA, the first K-pop artist to appear on the Billboard 200 chart with her eponymous album in April 2009 – continues a stunning and seemingly endless trajectory. In March 2020, “Parasite” became the first non-Englishlanguage film to win the Oscar for best picture; a few months later, BTS’ 9th LP, “Be,” debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, making the group the fastest band to accumulate five chart-toppers since the Beatles. Most recently, Netflix’s record-breaking dystopian Korean-language drama “Squid Game” has generated a reported $890 million for the streaming service since its Sept. 17 premiere. Park, who was born in Texas to Korean parents and now lives in New York City, claims to not be a typical K-pop fan. As a Korean American, “I chose to ignore it when I was growing up,” but ended up falling “into the world of K-pop in late 2016,” Park told the Daily News. Even though they wouldn’t

This devotion is especially telling since Park’s favorite K-pop group Twice only recently began its official crossover into the Western market, with the release of its first English-language single “The Feels” last month – which led the nine-member girl group to become the latest K-pop music act to hit the Billboard Hot 100 chart. They follow BTS’s record-smashing, jaw-dropping six No. 1 hits, and Blackpink’s

seven songs to hit the Hot 100 charts – to name a few. As a musical category, “K-pop is based on Euro-American pop traditions, like pop styles, R&B, hip-hop,” said Hae Joo Kim, an assistant chair of the professional music department at Berklee College of Music. “But probably the best way to think about it is to understand K-pop not as a music, but as a whole culture.” Kim, an educator and researcher who holds a Ph.D. in ethnomusicology and who focuses on the Korean music industry, said a critical component of the success of K-pop is its loyal fan base, and how they want to honor their idols. While the music is good and catchy, there’s another layer that adds to the appeal of K-pop: It has a very significant visual aspect about it, signature dance moves which fans like to mimic as a way of expressing their loyalties – whether by posting the dance on TikTok, or by dancing “in your own living room,” Kim said. “K-pop really builds that so well, because it’s so multidimensional: It’s visual, there’s drama, there’s storytelling, there’s a lot of slick choreography, they sing well, and the videos are highly produced,” he said. Fans “just become very invested in their dreams.”

THESE EASTS WERE EVEN MORE CAUTIOUS In yesterday’s column, we looked at a deal in which I felt South, with seven spades to the A-K-Q-10-9 and apparently eight winners, was cautious in not taking a shot at four spades. But he was right because that contract could have gone down three doubled for minus 800. Today’s deal is similar except that

Sudoku

by Phillip Alder East has nine guaranteed winners. He needs only one small contribution from partner to be cold for game. I can understand the one-spade opening because if East bids four spades immediately, he might miss a slam. Even so, after South overcalls two diamonds and North raises to three diamonds, why not jump to four spades? Only one player out of 16 at Bridge Base Online did that, and he got a cold top! How should four diamonds fare? Assuming West unimaginatively leads the spade three, low from length in partner’s unsupported suit, the defenders will get one spade and two hearts. Robots, though, rarely lead partner’s suit. One selected a club. This allowed declarer to draw trumps and run the clubs, discarding her spade loser. But she still seemed destined to lose three heart tricks, assuming East either covered the queen with the ace or played low if declarer led a low heart from the board. However, East strangely pitched a heart, so declarer, playing for split honors, led a low heart from the board. West took South’s jack with the king and returned a spade, but South ruffed and played a low heart from her hand and the eight from the board, bringing down the ace. Plus 130 was worth 66.7%.

Chloe Zhao hopes Marvel’s ‘Eternals’ reflects real world Tribune Content Agency By bringing “Eternals” to life, director Chloé Zhao hopes to show superheroes come from all different backgrounds. The much-anticipated Marvel movie centers on a diverse team of immortal warriors who have secretly protected Earth for 7,000 years. “We’re telling a story about people that had been with us since the beginning, and it’s important that we reflect what the world looks like globally today as much as possible,” the Oscarwinning Zhao told the Daily News. “But ultimately, our biggest hope is that you don’t only relate to the people that look like you or love like you, things like that, but you actually might even relate to people that you think you completely disagree with, or that you don’t like, or you feel has nothing in common with you.” The movie introduces the Eternals as instructed guardians by the godlike Celestials to defend humanity against vicious aliens called Deviants, but to never intervene with other conflicts. Gemma Chan, Salma Hayek, Richard Madden, Kumail Nanjiani and Angelina Jolie star in the film, which hits theaters Friday. “Eternals” features multiple milestones for Marvel’s interconnecting movie universe. Lauren Ridloff plays the franchise’s first deaf superhero, while the film depicts the series’ first same-sex relationship for a hero, portrayed by Brian Tyree Henry. “It’s a crazy ride through time and sometimes space,” Zhao said of the film. “You meet these incredible 10 new heroes, and you get to explore the origin of the (Marvel Cinematic Universe), the mythology of the Celestials, and then maybe also ponder some questions that we have asked ourselves since the dawn of civilization.” “Eternals” marks Zhao’s first release since she won Best Director at the 2021 Academy Awards for her intimate drama “Nomadland,” making her the second woman and the first

It’s also the first action movie directed by the Chinese-born Zhao, who penned the film’s screenplay as well. “For ‘Eternals,’ one thing that’s very different than ‘Nomandland,’ say, is the post-production period,” Zhao said. “With ‘Nomadland,’ I just get on my laptop and I edit it, and that’s it. There’s color and sound and stuff like that. But here, we have about a year and a half, three days a week, of visual effects meetings. Marvel really encouraged me. Every single decision, they asked me, ‘What do you want?’” Zhao enjoyed building a cast that aligned with the movie’s characters, who each boast unique abilities. “Let’s look for the actor that already has as much of the character in them as possible,” Zhao said of her casting process. “Because I am not the type of director that is interested in overworking with the actors, trying to create something completely separate from them. ... I rely on my cast, once they’re chosen, to develop the character and to bring a sense of who they are.” The filmmaker relished branching out into the superhero genre for the first time. “I hope that we don’t have to be in boxes,” Zhao said. “We don’t have to stay in our categories. True progress is when we’re just ourselves, and we get to make films that speak to us, not just in terms of gender and ethnicity and stuff like that, but also the genre of movies, that we can do whatever feels authentic and truthful for us.”

Personnel costs take biggest bite out of Measure L library funding Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — The Solano County library system divided its $6.34 million in Measure L funds among its materials budget, salaries, database costs and operating costs, according to a report submitted to the Board of Supervisors. The largest expense was salaries at $4.71 million, or about 74.3% of the revenue received during the 2020-21 fiscal year, the report states. The rest of the Measure L funding was divided among the materials budget, $986,947; database costs, $203,769; and operating costs, $438,658. Measure L accounts for about 40% of the county Library Services total budget. Measure L adds 0.125% to the sales tax countywide. “Solano County Library (Services) used the funds received from Measure L in the following ways: more materials, programs for children and youth and maintaining the complement of library hours at all nine facilities before the Covid-19 pandemic started,” the report states. “With these monies, (Library Services) was able to increase service hours by 111% from 199 per week to 420 hours per week during the ongoing Covid-19 global pandemic emergency. The materials budget has increased 387% from $432,000 to $2,104,235 since the passage of Measure B, the first sales tax measure passed in 1998. Due to the effects of Covid-19, the library has decreased the number of programs for youth by 36% from 895 to 574 programs,” the report states. The libraries combined to have nearly 1.34 million items in circulation.

A visitor works at a table at the Fairfield Civic Center Library, Monday. The Solano County Library system divided its $6.34 million Measure L funds among its materials budget, salaries, database costs and operating costs, according to a report submitted by the Board of Supervisors. “More important than the number of items circulating is that this revenue has allowed the library to purchase materials in multiple formats, including downloadable materials (e-book, e-audio and e-magazines) and in other digital formats, such as Hoopla, OverDrive and Kanopy,” the report states. The report notes Measure L funds were used to add staff, which added to the department’s public outreach efforts. “In addition, some of the sales tax measure monies have been used to fund the salaries of the literacy staff. The Literacy Division provides four different programs for Solano County Library: a pediatric program, Reach Out and Read; a Families for Literacy program; an Adult Literacy Program; and an

English as a Second Language (ESL) program,” the report states. The libraries within the county system include the Fairfield Civic Center Library, Fairfield Cordelia Library, Dixon Library, Rio Vista Library, Suisun City Library, Vacaville Public Library-Cultural Center, Vacaville Public Library-Town Square, John F. Kennedy Library in Vallejo, Vallejo Springtowne Library and the law library in the courthouse. The report does not break out the revenue and expenditures for each library. The report also noted the Measure L revenues and expenditures for the Benicia Public Library, which is independent of the county, and included 2020-21 Measure L revenues

of $762,567 and total expenditures of $903,336. Those expenditures are broken down as $851,155 in salaries, wages, benefits and workers’ compensation costs ($28,540). Another $52,181 was spent on service, supplies and books, the report states. Measure L was passed June 5, 2012, continuing the funding approved by Measure B in 1998, and was renewed by the voters for 16 more years starting in October 2014. A seven-member citizens’ oversight committee, representing each of the seven cities within the county, audits and monitors Measure L funding. The committee is appointed by the Board of Supervisors.

FAA issues safety alert on 5G interference U.S. regulators are warning aviators that a new band of 5G mobile phone service might interfere with key safety devices on aircraft. The Federal Aviation Administration on Tuesday issued a Special Airworthiness Information Bulletin warning that “action might be required to address potential interference with sensitive aircraft electronics.” The 5G spectrum abuts radio signals used by socalled radar altimeters, which measure how close an aircraft is to the ground. — Tribune Content Agency

Facebook to shut down use of facial recognition technology Tribune Content Agency Facebook parent Meta Platforms Inc. will no longer use facial recognition for photos and videos shared to the company’s flagship social network, saying it needs to weigh the benefits against growing concerns about the technology. The social media giant has used facial recognition since 2010 to encourage people to tag friends or family members in photos and videos, and to alert people if another user uploads a picture that they’re in. It eventually added some privacy constraints, and in 2017 it let people opt out of facial recognition. In 2019 Facebook turned off the feature by default, though users could choose to turn it on. Facebook on Monday said it will shut down this system for privacy reasons, and will delete more than 1 billion “facial recognition templates” it has collected over the years. More than a third of Facebook’s daily active users are currently using the feature, the company wrote in a blog post. Artificial intelligencebased facial recognition is controversial industrywide – not just at Facebook – though the social network’s use of the technology led to a legal settlement that cost the company $650 million in 2020. In that case, Facebook was accused of illegally collecting biometric data about users without their consent. “Every new technology brings with it potential for both benefit and concern, and we want to find the right balance,” Meta wrote in the post.

Facebook employees unveil a new logo and the name “Meta” on the sign in front of Facebook headquarters in Menlo Park, Oct. 28. Meta Platforms Inc. will no longer use facial recognition for photos and videos shared to the company’s flagship social network, saying it needs to weigh the benefits against growing concerns about the technology. “In the case of facial recognition, its long-term role in society needs to be debated in the open, and among those who will be most impacted by it.” Amazon.com Inc., Microsoft Corp. and Alphabet Inc.’s Google have also been sued for their use of facial recognition software. Amazon, which sells Ring security cameras and other consumer products for home surveillance, has paused use of its cloudcomputing unit’s facial recognition technology for law-enforcement purposes after claims that the system struggles with identifying people of color. Clearview AI Inc., another purveyor of facial recognition technology, has been the subject of complaints by privacy organizations in the U.S. and Europe. Watchdog

groups have accused Clearview of scraping images from social media profiles and the internet, potentially against some websites’ terms of use. Meta’s move comes after years of intense scrutiny from regulators and privacy advocates, who say the company has been reckless with user data. Meta has developed a reputation as a company that doesn’t take user data protection seriously enough, an image that was highlighted by a $5 billion privacy settlement with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission in 2019 after an investigation into its privacy practices. Company executives are routinely called before lawmakers to answer questions about its business practices and data collection. But Meta is now also

trying to build a new technology platform, called the metaverse, where people will interact in online spaces as digital avatars. In order for the project to succeed, Meta will need buy-in from regulators, industry peers and potential users. Abandoning facial recognition technology could be step toward convincing critics that the company is taking these privacy concerns more seriously. Menlo Park-based Meta outlined one of the downsides to eliminating facial recognition from the social network – Facebook won’t be able to identify people in alt text, a system used to help visually impaired users read a photo or video’s description, according to the blog.

Prep girls tennis

Vanden rolls in SJS semis; Mustangs eliminated FAIRFIELD — The Vanden High girls tennis team didn’t drop a set in sailing to a 9-0 victory over Oakdale in the quarterfinals of the SacJoaquin Section Division III tournament. The second-seeded Vikings (16-1) host either No. 3 Patterson or No. 6 Ponderosa of Shingle Springs in Wednesday’s semifinals at 2 p.m. “We played well throughout the lineup,” Vanden coach Stan Lewis said. “I know some of our younger players had a little bit of pre-match nerves going on, but it was nice to see us quickly settle in to playing consistent tennis once we hit the courts. Our singles players were able to take a lot of pressure off the doubles by securing the win before the doubles had to play.” Singles winners for the Vikings were Maya Khanna at No. 1 (6-2, 6-2), Sasha Smith at No. 2 (6-1, 6-1), Delaney Ramsell at No. 3 (6-0, 6-0), Camille Arca at No. 4 (6-1, 6-0), Jasmine Yabut at No. 5 (6-0, 6-0) and Jeanelle DelaCruz at No. 6 (6-0, 6-2).

Oakmont 6, Rodriguez 3: At Roseville, the 11thseeded Mustangs saw their season come to an end with a loss to the No. 6 Vikings. Rodriguez’s wins were earned by Riley Mark at No. 2 singles (3-6, 6-0, 10-6) and in doubles by Julianna Roxas and Shayla Prasad at No. 1 (6-4, 7-5) and Brianna Jahner and Sophia Jahner at No. 2 (6-4, 6-2).

Late goal not enough as Falcons fall, 2-1 MARYSVILLE — Dakota Marin scored an unassisted goal for the Solano Community College women’s team, but it was too little, too late as the Falcons dropped a 2-1 Bay Valley Conference decision to Yuba, Tuesday. The 49ers (12-7-0, 9-3-0 BVC) scored in the 27th minute on an unassisted goal by Jessica Lopez and added a second by Bella Goodson in the 66th minute off an assist from Dariene Montejano. Marin’s goal came in the 80th minute and the Falcons (9-7-1, 8-3-1 BVC) couldn’t push across the equalizer. Solano is next scheduled to play at Merritt of Oakland on Friday.

had a sore shoulder. MVP candidate Ronald Acuna tore his ACL on the eve of the first half, topping off a miserable 89-game stretch. Acuna’s injury triggered a series of transactions that are now immortalized in Braves lore. General manager Alex Anthopoulos, with his team at 44-45 and four games behind the Mets, swung trades for Pederson and Stephen Vogt during the All-Star break. The message resonated through the clubhouse: This team still has a chance. Weeks later, keeping with the same theme, Anthopoulos concocted one of the greatest trade deadlines of all-time. He replaced Acuna by committee, adding Soler, Rosario and Adam Duvall to join Pederson. He also added Richard Rodriguez, who helped the bullpen for a stretch. While some wrote them off, the Braves saw an opportunity. The National League East was beautifully mediocre. Naysayers questioned what getting into the postseason as a middling division champ was even worth, but Anthopoulos stressed: Just get into the tournament and one never knows what could happen. Finally, on Aug. 6 against the Nationals, the Braves moved to 56-55 with their fourth consecutive win. It was their first time over .500 on the season. A week later, they reeled off a 9-0 road trip in Washington, Miami and

ROCKVILLE — Getting better as the night went on, the Solano Community College volleyball team soared to a 25-19, 25-13, 25-12 makeup match with Yuba of Marysville, Monday. Dani Rydjord led at the net with 11 kills and added three blocks; Sammy Brown distributed 10 kills, 13 digs and four aces; Kailyn Kaiser led the defense with 14 digs and three aces, serving 13-of-14; Anaya Rodriguez chipped in seven kills, seven digs and 15 assists; Jeryn Baldonado added 16 assists and served 12-of-13 with one ace; Chris Rigney Cruz contributed six kills and two blocks; and Mylie Moli chipped in five kills on zero error and three blocks. “We played solid tonight,” Solano coach Darla Williams said. “A few too many missed serves but we made up for it on our offense and defense. This win was huge because up until last Friday, Yuba College’s only loss was us, but Marin beat them on Friday to put then tied for second.” The Falcons (16-11, 9-0 BVC) host Napa Valley on Wednesday at 6 p.m.

Braves

Baltimore, surging into first place in the NL East. The Braves outpaced their division the rest of the way. The Mets collapsed while the Phillies embodied a slightly above-average team. The Braves went from a club that once alternated 18 wins and losses in July to one finding itself at the optimal time. Players have credited their mid-to-late September western road trip as another turning point. They went 7-3, rebounding after losing a series in San Francisco to take three of four in Phoenix and sweep the spiraling Padres. The Braves returned home and swept the Phillies to win the division and reach the postseason for the fourth straight year. First baseman Freddie Freeman made it clear afterwards: This isn’t playing with house money. They expected to contend for the championship. Outsiders generally didn’t see it similarly. A common thought was even if they snuck in thanks to the laughable NL East, there wasn’t a way the Braves, perennial postseason failures, could banish the ghosts that have haunted them since blowing a 2-0 World Series lead in 1996 with this makeshift roster. They drew the Brewers in the opening round, a 95-win club featuring dominant pitching. The Braves lost the first game, 2-1, before winning the next three, outpitching Milwaukee along the way. Pederson had two pinch-hit homers in the series, winning over Atlanta’s hearts with his quirky personality and string of pearls. Next were the reigning champion Dodgers, who’ve long been a source of Atlanta anguish. The Dodgers eliminated the Braves in 2013, 2018 and 2020.
