Without any inventory in the store, the nose is mostly woody.

Still, James Blankenship beams, pointing to the wooden floors, and the massive slab of glossy wood that will serve as the front counter for The Stash Box, Auburn’s first recreational marijuana retail shop.

“The build-out for this took about two months,” said Blankenship, 31. “We started in September.”

On Oct. 30, when a Liquor Control Board inspection cleared the way for the official license, allowing the store to start acquiring inventory from a licensed Washington State marijuana processor, Blankenship’s dream took one more stride toward reality.

“We’re hoping to open up around Nov. 15,” said the Liberty High School graduate and recent Auburn resident.

Blankenship’s journey began last year when he applied for a marijuana retail license, hard on the heels of voters approval of I-502 in 2012.

“I just seized the opportunity to apply,” he said. “I knew that what I was doing (as a parts salesman) wasn’t making me happy. And I wanted something that would allow me to take care of my family.”

Blankenship deliberated what region to apply for when he filled out his request for the Washington State Liquor Control [ more SHOP page 7 ]

Renton man gets 27 months in death of trucker, businessman freeway crash cut short the life of this big-hearted man, who gave so much of himself and had so much more to give.

On Oct. 30, in Palmer a courtroom at the Norm Maleng Regional Justice Center, the man responsible for Bartkowski’s death – Stephen Jamal Palmer – learned of his punishment for his careless actions on that day,

BY MARK KLAAS mklaas@auburn-reporter.com

He was a quiet, unassuming man who loved his wife and family, enjoyed his friends and supported his community.

A trucker, a longtime Auburn businessman, and an active volunteer who helped others, especially the underprivileged.

Joe Bartkowski was many things to many people.

But on Nov. 4, 2012 a

when he triggered a chain-reaction crash on southbound Interstate 5 near Federal Way. King County Superior Court Judge Julia Garratt sentenced Palmer, 22, of Renton, to 27 months in prison for vehicular homicide and reckless endangerment.

Palmer was driving under the influence of alcohol and marijuana at the time

of the accident, according to charging papers.

He’d had no prior criminal convictions.

Palmer’s sentencing brought some closure to the Bartkowski family.

“It was justice,” Joe’s widow, Sharon Bartkowski, said afterward. “He made a mistake and needs to be held responsible for it.”

Earlier, describing to the court her husband of 40 years, Sharon Bartkowski choked back tears.

“My husband was everything to me. … He loved me more than anything. My heart is broken because Joe is not here with me every day,” she said. “Joe had a joyful spirit. He showed that to me every day. My life was blessed with Joe. My time with Joe wasn’t long enough. Nothing can bring Joe back, nothing can fill my emptiness,” she said.

She then turned to Palmer.

“I hate the choice you made that killed my husband,” she said.

Palmer later apologized to the Bartkowski family.

“I am truly, truly sorry for your loss … if I could bring him back, I would,” he said.

The State Patrol said Palmer was driving impaired at 2:32 a.m., when he lost control of his Nissan Altima, struck a guardrail and came to rest on the freeway.

Palmer and three passengers got out of the vehicle and moved to the right shoulder of the freeway.

A Toyota Camry then hit Palmer’s car before

Bartkowski’s truck, carrying 9,000 gallons of aviation fuel, struck the Altima, swerved off the road and rolled down an embankment, where it collided with a soundwall and burst into flames.

Authorities said Bartkowski was able to avoid hitting Palmer’s car and maintain enough control to keep his truck on the freeway before he left the road and slammed into the wall.

Four young adults sustained minor injuries. Bartkowski, days from retirement, was killed instantly.

Senior Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Rod Scarr lauded Bartkowski for his quick actions.

“He truly was a hero,” Scarr told the court. “… Joe had to more or less thread a needle to get between those two cars, barely clipping one, and indeed, likely saved many, many lives.”

Joe Bartkowski was a big part of the Auburn community. He and Sharon owned The Print Shop in Auburn for several years before he returned to his passion — [ more BARTKOWSKI page 4 ]

THE KING COUNTY FLOOD CONTROL DISTRICT’S BOARD OF SUPERVISORS approved on Monday a 2015 budget of $55.6 million to pay for work underway along the Green River, Cedar River, White River and the Snoqualmie River basins. The district is funded by a property tax of 13 cents per $1,000 assessed valuation.

Last year, the district began a

comprehensive look at each river corridor. This year the budget continues that commitment by allocating money to implement these corridor plans.

“This is a budget that prioritizes and funds the district’s ambitious work program for the coming year,” said Flood District Chair Reagan Dunn. “We are committed to protecting King County residents,

businesses and infrastructure from flooding events ,and this budget continues to reflect that commitment.”

By doing this, important work sites like the Boeing 737 production facility at the Renton Municipal Airport will be protected from flooding events.

– For the Reporter

• An initial three-year contract • A $3,900 cost per camera, per location.

• While the City gets to decide initially where the cameras go, if after three months a location does not produce enough revenue to pay for the cameras, the remaining balance would be zero, and the company would then have the right to consider new locations.

GATSO describes its cameras as portable, fully enclosed, capable of tracking speeds, red light running, able to read auto licenses and, ultimately to perform traffic counts for studies.

At the prompting of Councilmember Wayne Osborne, committee members decided that as far as school camera sites are concerned, new camera locations would require a 30-day warning to motorists before they went operative. Existing locations would not require such warnings.

Committee members agreed that the red light photo safe signs should be [ more LIGHTS page 4 ]

Firefighters dispatched to a fire on the 400 block of Auburn-Black Diamond Road didn’t know what sort of fire they were about to deal with, and the Guardian One Helicopter flying over the area only reported a large glow in south Auburn. What firefighters found and quickly extinguished were two large burn barrels in flames. Firefighters then educated the homeowner about the no-nos of outdoor burning.

“Everybody knew Joe and Sharon.

Everybody knew that if they needed some help, they could go to Joe and Sharon and get that help,” he said. “Joe would be the first to volunteer, not to get credit. … He would get the job done and quietly leave.

“There are few people who make up a community, who make up the soul of that community, and Joe was one of those people,” Lewis said.

Colleen Steele remains hopeful that her resilient son, Cullen, gains the strength to come home.

It won’t be in time for Thanksgiving, she says, but maybe for Christmas.

After receiving a heart and double-lung transplant three months ago, the Kent boy is slowly on the mend.

Cullen, who turns 15 on Nov. 17, suffers from pulmonary hypertension, a rare, debilitating disease of the lungs that affects the functioning of the heart and can lead to failure. His deteriorating condition, a six-year battle, necessitated a last-hour surgery at Stanford University’s Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital in Palo Alto, Calif.

At 6 a.m. on Aug. 6, Colleen got the phone call she had long been waiting for. Doctors had finally found a donor.

She accompanied Cullen on the urgent flight down to the San Francisco Bay Area, where the following morning, surgeons stood ready to perform a six-hour transplant operation to save the boy’s life.

Defying odds, Cullen pulled through.

“He was declining rapidly, and those lifesaving organs didn’t come a moment too soon,” Colleen said of the excruciating ordeal.

“The surgeon told me after the transplant that when they did the operation, his old heart and lungs were barely functioning. His old organs were wounded warriors.”

Let’s pay fair wages, provide health care Your guest columnist, Don Brunell, is correct when he says the election is about jobs and wages (Oct. 24, Auburn Reporter).

Presidents Hoover, Carter and George Herbert Walter Bush are proof that it is the economy that hurts a president’s voter appeal.

Brunell is wrong when he says that the market should determine the wages of workers. Walmart pages low wages and restricts hours to limit health care when the family who owns Walmart is worth a reported $6 trillion.

Personally, I don’t want persons working for me who do not get fair wages and some health care.

I do not go to Walmart. I also do not want a Keystone Pipeline, which moves Canadian oil across my land to our southern coast, where it is refined and sold to the highest bidder that may not be the United States.

Workers deserve a fair wage, and the Affordable Health Care Act is a start for workers to get some health care insurance.

As long as Boeing builds some of the world’s best airplanes, which meet market demands, the Seattle area will prosper.

Boeing also pays good wages. Firms that do not pay fair wages and some health care should not prosper.

– Harold B. Valentine

Rules of the road If you are traveling on a multi-lane road, usually four lanes, and a school bus is picking up or dropping off kids, you are not required to stop when traveling in the opposite direction.

This occurs on A Street Southeast in Auburn almost daily.

The bus is in the northbound lanes in front of AutoZone and southbound traffic is in front of O’Reilly’s Auto Parts. Traffic southbound stops for the northbound bus on a four-lane street and causes to traffic to backup to Ellingson Road. This causes traffic at Ellingson Road to come to a complete stop when they shouldn’t have to. Traffic turning to southbound or traffic crossing Ellingson is now at a complete standstill when someone is afraid to pass the northbound school bus.

Let’s be safe, supportive I wish I did not have to worry about being safe in my own home. But my “Auburn” has changed a great deal since 1964.

When we see a stranger in our neighbor’s yard and know he doesn’t belong there, we can call 911. When the footsteps we hear at midnight don’t sound right, we must call 911.

We can keep our doors and windows locked, even in summer. We can keep our property well lit and our jewelry in safe places where the guy who breaks in won’t find it. If we have a gun, we can be trained to be safe.

Know our neighbors and care about them. Help us all to be safer and happier.

Lawmakers or rule breakers?

We are a nation of laws. The politicians make the laws. The courts and police enforce the laws.

You can get a ticket for going over the speed limit. You can go to jail for stealing. So why is it OK to sell pot, which is against a federal law? Why do the courts, police and lawmakers refuse to enforce the mitigating laws?

Is it OK for me to break the laws like the courts, and lawmakers do?

[6] November 7, 2014 [ KLAAS from page 5 ] Cullen, ever the fighter, is on the mend, but his recovery has been rough. His new organs are in “minor rejection,” which is normal in the first year of recovery, and anti-inflammation medications have led to seizures, migraines and other complications. But doctors are optimistic that Cullen will respond to treatment.

The transplant center, led by Stanford medicine faculty, is considered one of the nation’s finest facilities, supporting some of the highest survival rates in the country for children.

“He’s had some bumps in the road, but he’s doing well. Basically, his doctors say he’s doing well,” Colleen said. “There’s a lot to be figured out, but there’s so much hope. I mean, they’re going to figure this out. It’s just going to take time.”

To be near her son, Colleen left her secretarial job at Auburn’s Holy Family Catholic School and rented a studio apartment not far from the transplant center. The hospital is picking up the costs.

As mom stands by her son’s side, the rest of the family is staying back, more than 800 miles away. Brian, Cullen’s father, is a senior systems administrator. Aidan, 13, Cullen’s brother, attends school.

Despite the long distance, the family has reunited at the hospital. “(Aidan) has given up so much over the years and has worried without end about his brother,” Colleen said. “This journey has been very hard on him as well, yet he rarely complained. He’s an amazing young

www.auburn-reporter.com man, and Brian and I are so proud of his strength as well.”

Between treatments, Cullen tries to keep busy with books. He graduated from the eighth grade at Holy Family last spring but has spent his freshman year taking classes at a school in the hospital.

“They’ve been very understanding,” Colleen said of the instructors at Kennedy Catholic, Cullen’s high school. “They even have sent him care packages and encouragement.

They are really looking forward to the day when he can finally walk through their doors.”

Given the high medical costs, the Steeles are doing their best to make ends meet. Family and friends from Auburn, Kent and surrounding communities have organized creative fundraising events.

Amy O’Donnell Riley and COTA (Children’s Organ Transplant Association) have been instrumental raising money to cover the cost of Cullen’s operation.

Colleen cannot thank the many supporters enough.

“We are fortunate to have amazing family and friends,” she said.

Colleen also is overwhelmed by the great gift of life that Cullen received by the donor and his family.

“We are so grateful to them, and our prayers are always with his family,” she said.

Colleen intends to write a letter and send a photo of Cullen to the donor’s family. By careful arrangement, families have the option to read each other’s letter. They also have the choice to meet in the future. Colleen is entertaining that probability.

For Colleen, it’s been a tough go,

but even more so for her son.

“It’s been hard in a sense that a transplant really shouldn’t be the cure for PH (pulmonary hypertension). You’re really trading one disease for another,” said Colleen, pointing out that November is PH Awareness Month. “It’s been really hard watching Cullen struggle, which is to be expected. It’s hard seeing him in pain and watching him go through the process of recovery. … Knowing that a transplant is a roller-coaster ride in itself, he will always have challenges.”

Cullen’s plight has been an emotional experience, testing the resolve of those around him.

“For a mom, the heartbreak never ends. It’s heart wrenching in many ways, but I also have so much hope for Cullen’s future,” Colleen said.

“I try to take it a day at a time. I’ve learned to appreciate the small things. There’s no taking things for granted when you’re going through things like this.

“I look at Cullen now and, despite his current challenges, he looks so much healthier than he has in years,” Colleen said. “Day by day, he is getting stronger, and I can’t wait until he feels well enough to live life to its fullest. Every day I wake up and want to hug him and never let go because I’m so grateful he is still with me.”

Check the record The election will be over by the time this is published. I wanted to respond to the people who question my facts by asking how Dave Reichert gets reelected.

The answer is you believe his rhetoric and do not check his record.

All the statements I made can be verified by checking his voting record.

Your Congressman’s voting record is a matter of public record. I know he voted for the Democratic initiatives for veteran’s jobs and housing. However, he voted for the Republican budget that did not fund these programs and in fact slashed veteran benefits. I don’t call

that supporting veterans.

For those of you have put your lives on the line for this country, I think you deserve better than someone who just talks a good game.

I want someone who backs it up for you, and that person is not Reichert.

In future elections I hope everyone will check their representatives voting record and not just accept everything they say as fact.

Among the ideas members of the Auburn Youth Council suggested was having a counselor on hand to help teens work through personal issues.

The youth council also talked about having an espresso bar for teens, giving the space a coffee house feel.

he said. “The City had the moratorium, and we didn’t know what to do.

But I knew the store had to be here in Auburn.”

Blankenship said he then asked for the help of advisors from the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML), which fights for the legalization and acceptance of marijuana nationwide.

“I started holding my own meetings at the public library and went to all the council meetings,” he said. “I just wanted to make sure everybody knew I didn’t have anything to hide.”

In September of 2014, the City decided to let the one-year moratorium

couraged that idea, noting the espresso bar could be used to train teens how to be baristas, perhaps giving them a head start on a job at a local coffee stand.

Daryl Faber, director of Parks, Arts and Recreation, said although the City may not want to get into the business of providing the counselor, for various reasons, a space for an organization such as Auburn Youth Resources to come in and help could be created.

Lokting added that he hopes the building can be completed by June 2016.

by Stan Lokting, ARC Architects principal, was a precursor to the design phase of the project.

“With the gym, senior center, youth center and community center, we will have close to 60,000 square feet of real community center uses in one location, pretty central to the city,” Lokting said. “It’s not only a matter of designing it expertly but also getting

Board lottery.

“I just put in one application, I didn’t try to stack the deck like other people,” he said. “I looked all around from Tacoma all the way to Tukwila.”

But familiarity with Auburn and a good deal on his current space decided him.

“The lottery was in May, and I had given up hope,” he said. “Then I got the word that I won, and I was excited.”

Potential investors from as far away as California contacted Blankenship immediately after he won.

“I wanted to keep it local,” he said.

He settled on enlisting the financial aid of friends from the Bonney Lake and Auburn areas to get the Stash Box up and running. Before they could officially begin work as The Stash Box, LLC., however, the state demanded extensive background checks on him and on the other three members of the corporation.

“We had to have background checks and a complete driving and traffic history, even,” he said. “And lots of financial paperwork. It was very intrusive.”

Having passed that first hurdle with no problems, Blankenship and company smacked up against Auburn’s moratorium on marijuana businesses, which the City Council had approved in September of 2013.

“It was beyond frustration at first,”

expire, clearing the way for work to began on The Stash Box. “We want it to be like a cigar or tobacco shop, with a sense of the lifestyle involved,” he said. “We want it to be a cool place to be at, where customers will want to come by, and come back, just to see what we have.

“We aren’t here to push this on anyone,” he said. “We want to help push the black market out of Auburn.”

So far, Blankenship says, the reaction from his neighbors and from city residents to the shop’s location at 3108 A St. S.E. Suite F, has been positive.

“I’ve really only had good reception from people, so far,” he said. “I want to thank the council and mayor for all the work they did. I’m really happy to be in Auburn.

“The biggest concern has been about the edibles,” he continued. “The packaging can’t look anything like candy or something that would appeal to kids. Even something named ‘cookies and cream’ can’t be named that because that would appeal to children.”

Store security is a common topic.

“This place is actually probably as secure as most banks,” he said. “We have cameras that are recording 24/7, and we have to keep copies for 90 days. And we have logs for anybody that comes and goes.”

Blankenship said he’ll employ about eight people, full time and part time.

“I’m really happy to be here in Auburn,” he said. “I want to be a positive impact, not a negative one.”

And as of last Tuesday, all of the works are where anybody can see them, in the lobby of Auburn City Hall at 25 West Main St. “It’s partly due just to love and admiration for the culture, but also because I’ve done a lot of work in Native American communities around here over the years,” Watson said. “I am influenced by things I admire. I’m not an Indian wannabe, but you can’t be as in love with something as I am with this culture and not be influenced by it.

“Even though these are not copies of any particular tradition – I mean, this here is a pretty serious Puget Sound Salish paddle, but you would never have seen anything so elaborately decorated in the old days – most of these are just my interpretation,” Watson said.

As Watson was explaining his art, he and Maija McKnight, arts coordinator for the City of Auburn, were bustling about, putting to put the final touches to the collection of mounted clay forms, cedar plank figures, and one handmade,

of canoes as living beings, living things,” Watson said. “...This is about friends and communities that have made me welcome and things that I’ve seen that have taken my heart over the last 30 years or so,” Watson said, singling out his dear friend and inspiration, the late Vi Hilbert, an Upper Skagit Tribal elder and one of the pioneers in the revival of the native languages of the Puget Sound region, another of Watson’s many interests.

Watson met Hilbert in 1984 when he was working on his graduate degree in museum studies at the University of Washington.

“Somebody told me about this wonderful lady in

Indian studies who taught about languages. I walked into her classroom and became a student of hers, and I’m still there,” Watson said.

For Watson, who teaches in the Auburn school system and is active on the Auburn Arts Commission, there is nothing like carving something wonderful from wood, something shaped by the strength and dexterity of his own hands, molded by an age-old instrument, summoning soul stuff.

Stopping to admire Watson’s work, a woman gave the exhibit its first grade.

nering with King County on funding sources going forward for the whole public health system.”

Given that financial support from the state and federal governments has been on the decline over the last few years, King County announced earlier this year that it would close the clinic and others by the end of 2014.

As of Wednesday, the funding partners are: • The City of Auburn: $220,000 • The Muckleshoot Indian Tribe: $150,000 • Group Health: $100,000 • Orion Industries: $40,000 • The City of Algona:

$10,000 • The City of Pacific: $10,000 • The Valley Regional Fire Authority: $10,000 Some of the numbers could change, City officials say.

Although the Black Diamond and Enumclaw city councils have passed resolutions supporting the clinic and indicated their interest in becoming financial partners, neither City has made formal commitments.

A Salute to our Veterans

[12] November 7, 2014

A Salute to our Veterans [ LOVITT from page 1 ] Green River Community College.

Lovitt found his way, but it wasn’t easy.

He saw combat with the Army Airborne’s 10th Mountain Division in Iraq and Afghanistan from 200205. His patrol withstood many nerve-jarring suicide

bomb attacks and surprising episodes with improvised explosive devices.

One attack in particular stands out.

His unit was on a 12-hour patrol outside Baghdad on Sept. 14, 2005, when a car bomb explosion scattered the group. The blast shook the Humvee carrying Lovitt and three other soldiers like a “box of marbles.” It damaged the fortified truck, engulfed it in flames and left a crater in the ground.

Luckily, no one was killed in the explosion, but plenty of heads were left ringing.

Lovitt absorbed a concussion, one of several he says he sustained on two lengthy tours of duty, and was later diagnosed with a traumatic

brain injury.

After serving five years in the Army, Lovitt came home with invisible wounds. He struggled with migraines, memory loss and other cognitive problems.

“I would read a page, and by the time I got to the bottom of it I’d lost what I was reading,” he said. “At that point, I knew something was wrong.”

So Lovitt found treatment, eventually regaining his memory and rebuilding his cognitive skills.

Unsure of his future, Lovitt returned to school.

Peter Schmidt, a Veterans Training Support Center project director at Edmonds Community College, encouraged Lovitt to deal with

his struggles and connected him to the right people and resources.

“He was encouraging and empowering,” Lovitt said.

Lovitt excelled in the classroom and began working with student veterans.

He chartered two student clubs.

“My experiences with campus activities helped me realize that, although my time in the military had ended, my service to my nation and those around me had not,” Lovitt said.

After graduating from Edmonds, Lovitt earned his bachelor’s degree in public affairs from Seattle University and a master’s in business administration from Western Governor’s University.

Part of the first cohort of the Washington Department of Veteran Affairs, he later became its first traumatic brain injury field coordinator.

Today, 32-year-old Lovitt – husband, father of two and proud veteran – plans to pursue a doctorate degree while continuing his work with students at Green River.

Lovitt enjoys the challenge of getting veteran students back on their feet.

Green River has a long history of supporting veterans and continues to ensure student success through

comprehensive educational programs and support services.

“A good day for me is when somebody learns about our resources … and we’re able to help them,” Lovitt said.

Lovitt encourages student veterans to reach out, establish relationships and find the necessary help. Veterans often can’t make it alone.

“People will guide you during your journey, give you a shoulder to lean on and help you laugh when you need it,” he said.

Veterans need help in many ways, Lovitt said.

“The reassimilation is really quick. The general public’s understanding or expectation is that the men and women who come out of the military go through this long, detailed transition process and that they are retrained and given the right tools to be successful. That’s not what’s happening,” Lovitt said.

“The everyday Joe who comes out of the military doesn’t know how to write a resume. They don’t know how to do a job interview.

They kinda know how to network but not effectively for careers,” Lovitt explained.

A Salute to our Veterans

Veteran tests the skies in service to country

BY MARK KLAAS

Air Force officer Bill Anderson flew 158 missions during the Vietnam War, and survived the hostile skies to come home.

COURTESY PHOTO,

Anderson family

[ LOVITT from page 12 ] “Most of them have never explored what they want to do. Now that they are out, they don’t realize the options.”

Lovitt says the college has stepped up. Green River keeps growing with a healthy infusion of returning veterans ready to rediscover the classroom. The college served more than 500 student veterans last year, and has helped more than 300 VA-supported student veterans so far this year, Lovitt said.

The GRCC Foundation

mklaas@auburn-reporter.com

Flight has taken Bill Anderson to greater heights and many adventures throughout the world.

He commanded fighter jets over hostile skies in war and piloted all types of planes over friendly skies in peacetime.

Flying brought out the best in the Auburn man, long since retired from his extensive duty with the Air Force and his managerial work at The Boeing Co. “There’s just something about it, something special,” said 81-year-old Anderson, reflecting on his military and is doing its part. Its Veterans Educational Transition (VET) Fund covers gaps in student veterans’ education benefits.

Auburn’s VFW Post 1741 and the Kent Rotary Club are among those organizations that have contributed greatly to the college’s veteran fund programs.

There are many other resources in place to help veterans, including programs that help ease the transition from combat to campus. The Washington State Department of Veterans Affairs developed the new GI Bill education benefits programs

for post-9/11 veterans, providing a supportive environment and easier access to other benefits, such as academic advice, financial aid, career counseling and peer support.

Lovitt is determined to succeed and lead the college’s efforts to help more students find their way. Much more work needs to be done.

“My professional goal is to have the highest retention and completion rates of our student veterans in the state,” Lovitt said. “To move the needle … to have more student veterans graduating here.”

civilian career, which spanned 43 years.

“You’re up in the sky. There’s freedom.

You’re in charge and you deal with a lot of problems.”

Flight first gripped the Kent boy growing up in the Green River Valley in the 1940s. A wide-eyed youngster occupied the seat next to the pilot of a small-craft airplane as it took off from a small valley airport tucked next to a rural highway.

The boy was hooked. Flying became his passion.

“I never forgot that flight,” he said.

What followed were bigger airplanes and complicated missions throughout a

21-year military career.

Anderson, a 1951 Kent-Meridian High School graduate, earned a degree in productions management at the University of Washington, where he was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the Air Force through the ROTC (Reserve Officers’ Training Corps) program.

He served as a pilot, instructor and aircraft commander at air bases sprinkled throughout the country and abroad during the Cold and Vietnam wars.

When called upon in 1968, Major Anderson went to Southeast Asia.

Ravens soar into playoffs this week

Lions, Trojans in district playoffs REPORTER STAFF

Auburn secured third place in the South Puget Sound League 3A and a district playoff berth next weekend with a 49-27 victory over Lakes at

BY SHAWN SKAGER sskager@auburn-reporter.com

This season the Raven girls soccer team has been downright stingy.

Through 16 games Auburn Riverside has given up just five goals total and never more than one goal in any one game.

The team, led by senior Kristina Nelson, the South Puget Sound League 3A Goalkeeper of the Year, has also notched 11 shutouts, resulting in a 14-2-0 record and second place in league. The Ravens regular season success has led to a berth in the district tourney, where the team played SPSL 3A rival Bonney Lake (4-8-1) at 5:30 p.m. Thursday at Sunset Chev Stadium in Sumner in a loser-out contest. A win moves Auburn Riverside on to a winnerto-state, loser-out match against either Enumclaw (7-8-1) or Wilson (3-4-1) Saturday at Highline Memorial Stadium in Burien.

“We’ve just been playing tremendous defense,” Lewis said. “It’s really been the strength of the team. It all starts with the goalkeeper, and Kristina has been huge for us. She not only has all her shutouts, but we’ve also been in three shootouts and won every one. There has been some great shooting in those, but shootouts come down to goalkeeping, and she has been great in those.

You get a couple saves and that

Senior Calli Millang, right, leads the Ravens offensively with six goals and six assists.

Auburn Riverside begins play in the district tourney this week. RACHEL CIAMPI, Reporter helps. She’s just confident and that gives the other kids confidence.”

In addition to Nelson’s play between the pipes, Lewis singled out the defensive play of freshman Taylor Smith, also an SPSL 3A AllLeague selection.

“She’s been really solid,” Lewis said. “She’s a dominant player. As a club player she plays offense, but for us she plays defense. And she has

three goals from there. From the back, she and Kristina have led it.

Our focus as a team has been great.

We just have a solid defense. And if you can hold onto zero, it gives you a better chance. We’ve got good offensive players, but I think defense is where it all starts.”

Rotter wins district title Auburn Mountainview junior Christian Rotter punched his ticket to the state 3A cross county meet by capturing the Westside Classic 3A District meet at American Lake Golf Course in Lakewood last Saturday.

Rotter finished the 3.1-mile course in 16 minutes, 13.16 seconds to edge Columbia River senior Austin Blakenship (16:13.95), the defending race champion.

It was Rotter’s third top-five finish at the Westside Classic. He was fourth in 2012 and third last year.

Rotter’s personal-best time is 15:50.81, set last year at the state race, where he finished 16th.

Also qualifying for Auburn Riverside is junior Corey Brinkman, who finished sixth with a 16:33.92 and Dax Tate, a senior who finished 20th with a 17:00.52.

In the girls race, Auburn Mountainview freshman Samantha Goedde earned a berth at the state meet with her 20:52.25 finish. Auburn Riverside junior Amanda Bunger just missed out on

carries with a touchdown, and Clay had eight carries for 110 yards and a TD. Auburn feasted on Lakes turnovers, recovering three fumbles and intercepting the Lancers once.

Defensively, the Trojans held Lakes to just 55 yards on the ground, while allowing 299 passing yards.

The win earns the Trojans a 7 p.m. district game Friday against Meadowdale (7-2) at Edmonds Stadium. The winner advances to the first round of the Washington State 3A playoffs and a contest on either Nov. 14 or

15 against the winner of the Lakeside (5-3) versus Peninsula (9-1) game. Details to be announced.

ALSO: The Lions (7-1 league, 9-1 overall) begin play in the 3A district playoffs on Friday, hosting WesCo South 3A Glacier Peak (6-3) at 7 p.m. at Auburn Memorial Stadium.

Auburn Riverside (0-7 league, 0-9 overall) finished the season Thursday with a crossover, nonleague game against 2A Clover Park (0-7, 0-9) at Auburn Memorial Stadium. Results were unavailable at press time.

[ FOOTBALL from page 14 ] Auburn Memorial last Friday.

The Lancers (3-4 league, 5-4 overall) found the end zone first when junior quarterback Robert Reiten connected with junior Xavier Weston for a 53-yard touchdown.

Auburn (6-2, 7-3) responded with the next three scores, two runs by senior running back Patrick O’Dell in the first quarter – one for a yard and one from 9 yards out – and Masai Matthews’ 5-yard run in the second quarter.

In the second half, Auburn posted 21 points, with junior Kevin Clay rushing for a 47-yard TD and junior Malik Williams adding a 17yard run for a touchdown.

O’Dell scored his third touchdown of the game in the fourth quarter with a 30-yard run.

The Trojans finished the game with a whopping 539 yards rushing, with three players gaining more than 100 yards in the game.

O’Dell finished with a game-high 150 yards on 15 carries with three TDs. Wade added 113 yards on eight

qualifying, finishing 27th with a personal best time of 21:30.44.

The state meet is Saturday at Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco.

[22] November 7, 2014 Ravens have mustered enough offensive firepower to tie the school record for wins in the regular season wins at 14, Lewis said.

“After seeing the team at tryouts, I knew we’d be good,” he said. “I thought we’d be better offensively, but we’ve been good enough.”

The team has posted 30 goals in 16 games, for a 1.875 goals-per-game average. Senior midfielder Calli Millang has led the way with six goals and six assists on the season.

Chipping in has been senior Robin Hood, who leads the team in assists

with eight and has contributed five goals. Sophomore Patricia Phithamma has added five goals and an assist.

Also aiding the team in its quest for a state tourney berth have been the team’s co-captains Kellie Jensen, Jewli-Ann Young-Holm and Izzy Creighton, and the team’s senior laden roster.

“Anytime you have that many kids (8) that are experienced, that have a good amount of skill, you’re going to have success,” Lewis said. “They’re composed all through the season, so you don’t have as many ups and downs as a predominately younger team.”

The Ravens look to move on to the state tourney this week, and tie the season-win record for Raven girls soccer by winning their 15th game of the season.

[ ANDERSON from page 13 ] He flew 158 missions, 58 of which were over North Vietnam, primarily in a search-and-destroy role to disrupt the enemy and its supply lines running from North to U.S.-supported South Vietnam.

On three occasions, Viet Cong-fired 37-millimeter shells struck Anderson’s F-4 fighter jet. On one of those missions, enemy flak crippled his plane, but the seasoned pilot was able to nurse the jet back to base.

Anderson was lucky. He came home. Some of his friends did not.

“I was very, very fortunate,” Anderson said.

As a senior command pilot with more than 4,300 flying hours, Anderson received several military awards and citations. He retired as a colonel in 1979.

Anderson worked in management at Boeing for 22 years before retiring.

He and his wife of 62

ALSO: The Auburn Mountainview girls soccer team has earned a berth in the district 3A tourney with a third-place finish in the SPSL 3A with a 10-4-0 record, 10-5-1 overall The Lions played North Thurston (10-6-0) on Thursday in a loser-out contest. The winner moves on to a winner-to-state, loser-out contest at 2 p.m.

Saturday at Highline Memorial Stadium in Burien against either Prarie (8-63) or Capital (10-3-2). The state tourney begins Nov. 10 at various locations.

Bill Anderson , who spent 21 years in the Air Force and 22 years with Boeing, is enjoying retirement with Donna, his wife of 62 years. They raised three children. MARK KLAAS, Auburn Reporter years, Donna, have made Auburn their home since 1979. They raised a son, Jeffrey, and two daughters, Sheri and Lori, and have seven grandchildren.

In retirement, Bill Anderson stayed active in the community, serving on boards for Green River Community College and the Auburn Mu-

nicipal Airport. To this day, the couple travels and enjoys the company of family and many friends.

“He’s a good guy,” Donna said. “He’s hard working.

He’s always been dependable.

He loves the challenge.”

And the ability to command the skies.
