Couple charged with 3-year-old girl’s beating death

BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com

In the clipped, clinical wording of autopsy reports everywhere, King County Medical Examiner

Tim Williams noted that the little girl on the table, known in court records as “N.B.” had sustained “significant bruising to her body,” including her face, upper mid and lower chest, abdomen, back, sides,

buttocks, arms, legs.

In addition to numerous broken bones – some of them recent, others at varying stages of healing – the 3-year-old had sustained bleeding in her head, bruising to

her pancreas, and internal bleeding from cuts to her kidneys and adrenal glands.

On June 12, the King County Prosecutor’s Office charged the girl’s 21-year-old mother, Ta-

tiana Baker, with second-degree murder. Prosecutors on Monday charged Baker’s 24-year-old, livein boyfriend, DeMarco Jackson, [ more CHARGES page 7 ]

Bookstore takes a page out of surviving as a nonprofit

BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com

With high hopes, Todd Hulbert opened Finally Found Books at 3705 Auburn Way N., in August of 2013.

But making a go of a bookstore is a hardscrabble affair, even in the best of times, and these are not those.

Despite heroic efforts, Finally Found Books never found its footing, only diminishing returns.

Things got so bad that by January of 2015 Hulbert announced he would sell the store.

No takers.

“We started to see revenues go down substantially from the previous year, and things didn’t get any better in February, March or April.

I finally said, ‘It’s either time to shut it up, or we can look at forming a nonprofit,’” Hulbert said. [ more BOOKSTORE page 7 ]

“I believe the school is the focal point of a community.

If things are happening at school in a positive way, that means things are happening in the neighborhood in a positive way,” Johnson said.

“I am running (locally) the distance of the width of the United States for Alzheimer’s. I have already run close to 400 miles since April 1,” Joneschiet said of his mission.

The pastor runs between six and nine miles a day, taking Sundays off to rest.

“It’s the least I can do to help the victims of Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia,” he said of his latest challenge.

Joneschiet and his supporters will provide a booth at a potluck in Les Gove Park for people wishing to

donate to the cause. Joneschiet expects to be at the booth around noon.

Man charged with assault

BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com

Eric Mayer kept text messaging his friend, “Omar,” accusing him and Omar’s friend of having stolen his bicycle some time earlier from Auburn’s Fulmer Field.

And Omar kept denying it, according to Auburn Police.

But it was Mayer’s decision to wrap his fists around what appeared to be two guns and physically confront “Omar,” plus his ever-shifting explanations to police afterward, that put

the Auburn man in jail, according to Auburn Police.

On June 4, the King County Prosecutor charged Mayer, 24, with one count each of thirddegree assault, felony harassment and making a false or misleading statement to a public servant.

He is being held on $50,000 bail.

Here, according to the Auburn Police Department’s Certification for Probable Cause, is what happened.

According to the account, on May 27 Omar and the friend Mayer had also accused of stealing the bike were walking south on N Street South-

east when a pickup pulled alongside them, stopped, and Mayer and another man got out.

According to what Omar and several witnesses to what happened next told police, Mayer was wearing body armor and brandishing what appeared to be two firearms.

According to the police account, Mayer then ran up to Omar and his friend and demanded his bike back, threatening to kill Omar if he didn’t return it. When Omar once more denied that he had stolen the bike, Mayer allegedly pistol whipped him on the back of the head, according to the police account.

in these scenarios.

Here’s what other local cities do: • The City of Kent allows an RV to be used as a temporary dwelling unit, provided the interval does not exceed 90 days, and that the use of the RV is consistent with the underlying zone.

What it means is that Kent lets people live in an RV in residential and mixed-use zones for up to 90 days, but prohibits them from living in RVs in commercial and industrial zones.

• Puyallup allows people to use RVs as temporary lodging on the site of an active construction project, but for no longer than six months. The City also requires that the owner obtain a temporary use permit to place the RV and to use it as temporary lodging.

• The cities of Federal Way, Renton and Tacoma do not permit anyone to live in an RV outside of an approved RV park.

“We have asked City staff to research possible code language and establish a code with health and safety standards,” said City Councilman John Holman, chairman of the Auburn City Council Study Sessions.

● Q U O T E O F N O T E : “My vision of a school was to be open 24 hours a day, like a 7-Eleven, where you can get a Slurpee and all that stuff.”

– Isaiah Johnson, the principal at Cascade Middle School, during an awards assembly that praised the work of the Auburn Valley YMCA Community Learning Center.

THE PETRI DISH

Crunch time as sides try to budge on budget If silence is golden, a lot of wealth is stockpiled in the state Capitol, where lawmakers and the governor are mum on progress in reaching a deal on a new state budget.

Thursday marked the 51st day that the Legislature was in special session – that’s oneand-two-thirds extra sessions – and only 12 days remained to reach agreement to avert the first-ever state government shutdown.

This is all reminiscent of 2013, when a clash between House Democrats and Senate Republicans pushed the Legislature through one-and-a-half special sessions – and state government to the same brink. It took lawmakers until June 27 to get a deal. They approved the budget the next day, and Inslee signed it June 30.

A similar scenario is shaping up this year.

Democrats still rule the House and Republicans the Senate, and they are once again unable to bridge their financial and philosophical differences.

They are wrangling over how much money to spend in the next budget ­– the Rs say $37.9 billion, and the Ds counter with $38.4 billion – as well as where the money will come from. House Democrats insist additional revenue is needed to pay all the bills, and Senate Republicans disagree.

If any of the negotiators talked publicly, they’d express frustration, not panic. While it’s long past time for a deal, it’s not too late to get it done, they’d say.

They are assembling the hundreds of small pieces of an agreement as they go.

Once they settle the big disputes, such as how large a pay hike to give teachers and how deep to cut college tuition, budget writers and their staff will pull an all-nighter Jerry Cornfield

Just who’s responsible?

In response to last week’s letter submitted by Faye Cunningham (“Some help, please, or let’s hire some goats”, Auburn Reporter): Regarding the grass and weeds around the Lakeland Hills North Monument and the grass on the sides of Mill Pond Drive Southeast up to 47th not being mowed: This has been brought up in the past and the answer is – the Mill Pond Apartments are responsible for these areas.

Tell them they need to get their goats out.

Kansas is not a state to emulate I was surprised that anyone would write a column in the Auburn Reporter (“Other states cutting taxes to spur jobs and growth”, Don Brunell, June 12) that holds the state of Kansas as a model for other states to emulate.

Gov. Sam Brownback asked the state Legislature for sharp tax cuts, saying that they would lead to a big increase in jobs and in state revenue.

Sadly, as been the case over the past 35 years, this delusional scheme did not work as promised.

Time after time, sharp tax cuts, instead of creating jobs and increasing government revenues, have led to deficits

Letters policy The Auburn Reporter welcomes letters to the editor on any subject. Letters must include a name, address and daytime phone number for verification purposes.

Letters may be edited for length. Letters should be no more than 250 words in length.

Submissions may be printed both in the paper and electronically.

Deadline for letters to be considered for publication is 2 p.m. Tuesday. and drastic spending cuts. The Laffer Curve is laughable.

In the case of Kansas, there are some sobering facts: 1, the state has an $800 million budget deficit; 2, several schools had to end the school year early, due to funding cuts; 3, in 2014, the state suffered the third worst revenue drop in the U.S; 4, employment grew by 1.1 percent last year, placing Kansas 40th in the country; 5, last year, the rate of personal income growth (2.9 percent) placed Kansas 42nd in the country.

And this is a state others should emulate?

Special place for books of all sorts I would like to mention a little bookstore in town that

has been in operation here in Auburn since the 1960s. I am referring to Comstock’s Bindery & Bookshop on Main Street.

From the outside, it may not seem very big, but inside there is an amazing collection of books. Shelves full of books on a wide variety of subjects are lined all over within this neat and eclectic bookstore.

I wanted to bring public attention to Comstock’s because just like other small “ma and pa” type of businesses, the Internet’s nonprofit and large chain bookstores are slowly bringing their demise to these little stores.

Auburn used to be full of small shops such as this. But with the expansion of everything and the “Auburn is Growing” mentality, these little stores are slowly disappearing from our community. This really saddens me because Auburn has always been a small town with that small-town feel and friendliness.

But now it seems we are turning into a “Little Seattle” of sorts, and these small stores, these locally-owned-and-run stores such as Comstock’s, are losing valuable business and will eventually have to close. I do not want this store to close before its time.

Comstock’s Bindery & Bookshop especially has a wide variety of military and history subjects, as well as a wide range of other topics. [ more LETTERS page 6 ]

Any accord would likely ban amendments by individual lawmakers. as was the case in 2013.

Before the cone of golden silence came down on the proceedings, House Minority Leader Dan Kristiansen, R-Snohomish, offered his survey of the landscape.

Noting that the Legislature is made up of 147 free agents, he said the challenge each budget cycle is figuring out how to help every member feel they got something out of the process.

Two years ago, it wasn’t easy. The

www.auburn-reporter.com budget was more constrained, and the politics more inflamed, with the rise of the Republican-controlled Majority Coalition Caucus. The delay was predictable.

Kristiansen didn’t expect it would wind up as contentious this year.

But even though the economy is rebounding, and Democrats and Republicans share similar priorities for where to spend the money, they still can’t agree on how much spending is enough.

Kristiansen said that when he’s met with majority leaders in each chamber, he asks them to “set aside the (lawmaker) names, set aside the party labels and talk about the wins

we’re going to get this year.”

There will be a historic increase in funding for public schools, as well as a sizable boost in money for mental health services and early learning.

State workers and teachers will get their first state-funded pay hike in years. An unprecedented reduction in college tuition is likely, he said.

“I look at them and say there’s a whole bunch of winners here, and you’re still fighting for more,” Kristiansen said. “Let’s just call ‘uncle,’ both of you.”

Kimberly Andrade, 13, a seventh-grader at Cascade Middle School, is all smiles after receiving her award for responsibility at the Auburn Valley YMCA’s Community Learning Center celebration last week.

of the many more things that we are going to add here … and I’m excited about that.”

Johnson and other school officials gathered June 11 at the middle school to praise the impact of the Auburn Valley YMCA Community Learning Center (CLC), a grant-funded, year-round program designed to help students boost grades, improve attendance and develop life and social skills.

The CLC – a collaborative effort of the Y, the City of Auburn and the Auburn School District – offers academic and enrichment opportunities to students at no cost to families. The City and OSPI (Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction) help fund the program.

School staff identifies students to participate in the program at each school.

Struggling kids gain the help they need to learn and adjust as they transition from the elementary to the middle school environment.

Students are given an outdoor activity time, followed by homework help in small groups. CLC staff helps students complete assigned homework in groups organized by grade level.

opportunities to participate in enrichments, such as art, music, games, drama, dance, cooking, sports or other activities.

So far, the program has been a hit, according to Roxana Pardo Garcia, the leadership development director for the Valley Y. The program served about 50 Washington Elementary and 100 Cascade Middle School students in its first year.

The program culminates in a free, six-week summer camp (June 29 to Aug. 7).

“We just try and reengage them,” Pardo Garcia said. “It’s a very unique partnership.”

Acquiring the program took considerable time and effort. Johnson applied several times for a federal grant but was turned down.

Eventually, adding Washington Elementary’s needs to the equation improved Auburn’s stock and its chances to obtain the grant.

“We didn’t stop. We continued to apply,” Johnson said. “They ended up saying yes, and that’s why we have this wonderful program today.

“It goes without saying, ‘Just because they tell you no, it doesn’t mean you stop trying.’ ”

there are very friendly and knowledgeable, not to mention down-to-earth and considerate.

[ CHARGES from page 1 ] likewise with second-degree murder.

Baker and Jackson are to be arraigned separately at 9 a.m., on June 25, in Courtroom GA of the Regional Justice Center in Kent.

The Auburn Police Detective’s affidavits on which the charges are based allege that Baker and Jackson had beaten the child on June 9. Although in the early afternoon they called 911, they allegedly misled police, medics, and firefighters as to their whereabouts, and over the course of the seven crucial hours that passed before medics and police could get to the child, failed to give her medical aid.

According to the affidavits, they also allegedly lied to detectives repeatedly in the ensuing investigation.

According to the affidavit, here is what happened.

Shortly before 2:30 p.m. on June 9, an unknown male called 911 from a cell phone and asked for a nurse’s hotline because, he said, his daughter was dehydrated after playing

$500

outside. He went on to say that he had tried to give the little girl fluids, but she had begun to vomit.

The male told the 911 operator that he was calling from Auburn, but the receiver’s computer terminal showed that the call was coming from Seattle and using a cell phone tower in Auburn near the 700 block of 28th Street Southeast.

When the call-receiver tried to confirm the call’s location, the call was disconnected. The receiver called the number back, and a female voice said that they were in Seattle and didn’t need any aid. Police and fire responded to the 700 block of 28th Street but couldn’t find the 911 caller.

At 9:46 p.m., Valley Communications got another call from the same number. The male caller said that his daughter was unconscious, and he was performing unassisted CPR, but Valley Com quickly realized it was the same man who had called earlier, and he was talking about the same little girl.

Hulbert chose the way of the nonprofit.

On June 10, the Washington Literary Organization (WLO), a new 501(c)(3), began raising money to buy the struggling store.

“After many months of investigating every conceivable option (put forward) by many supporters of the store, it was determined that the only viable, long-term option to keep it alive was to set up a nonprofit and expand the many programs offered,” Hulbert said.

“There are so many benefits to doing so, not only to this store but to many struggling bookstores across the nation.”

Below are some of the benefits Hulbert is talking about: A nonprofit can raise money through grants and tax-deductible donations; It can use a large number of volunteers to undertake various roles that are historically paid; And it can offer tax deductions for donated books.

Volunteers keen to the store’s plight have come out in force, Hulbert said, and have taken

gional Fire Authority firefighters and King County Medics soon responded to 420 23rd St. SE. According to the police accounts, officers tried to revive the child via CPR before medics arrived and assumed treatment of the girl. The child was loaded into a medical vehicle for transport to a hospital, but medics quickly determined that she was dead, and possibly for some time, as her body was cold and showed post-mortem lividity, or whiteness.

Jackson, according to the report, told the first officers at the scene that he and Baker had put N.B. and their two-month-old daughter into their vehicle to drive her to the hospital, but that he eventually took her out, laid her on the ground to continue CPR and to call 911.

The reports say Baker and Jackson later came to

on various responsibilities in the business and in support of existing and upcoming literary programs.

Hulbert’s army of volunteers includes WLO’s newly-formed, 13-member board of directors.

“It’s been a big undertaking, trying to get it up and running, and filling the various positions.

We’ve got good people from the community. It includes people like Connie Henke and Robert Blevins,” Hulbert said.

The last thing that needs to happen to complete the changeover is to raise $250,000 to purchase the store and maintain a large capital reserve to support its programs, Hulbert said.

Some of the programs that Finally Found Books established will be substantially beefed up under WLO, to include: Training and internships: three developmentally-disabled interns from the Auburn and Federal Way school districts have worked in the store over the past year and a half, and the plan is get in many more such kids to give them realworld experience.

Last September the store do-

She and Jackson said that over the last week the little girl had been misbehaving and Baker had been trying to discipline her, and that when the girl failed to respond as Baker “felt she should” upped the severity of the punishment to include striking her with a belt.

DeMarco allegedly told detectives that on June 9, he had watched Baker hit the toddler with a belt, and that that soon escalated to slapping and backhanding.

When those actions failed to get the expected response, Baker began punching her with a closed fist all over the body. De Marco also allegedly admitted to

nated $30,000 in gift certificates to teachers in the Auburn and Kent school districts, and the plan is to increase that amount substantially over the next few years.

Hulbert said WLO will continue to donate the books and gift certificates it has given to such causes as shut-in seniors, PTA auctions, fundraisers, Friends of the Library, the Veteran’s Administration and churches.

Hulbert said under the WLO, new programs will be established, to include increasing the collection and distribution of books to schools, libraries and other organizations to 100,000 in the first year and 200,000 in the second year.

Additional new programs include Traveling Story Time, which will offer readings at preschools and other children’s gathering places, in-house events such as tutoring, reading hours, sign language classes and providing meeting space for literary events.

taking part in the assault after Baker had finished, suspending her in the air by one arm and punching and hitting her time and again in the stomach until her body went limp and she lost consciousness.

DeMarco allegedly admitted that the family had never gone to a park that day. He said that after the girl went limp, he tried to keep her awake and give her fluids. He admitted he had made the first 911 call, but that Baker had told him not to give the actual address to 911 out of fear for how police, firefighters and medics would react to the child’s actual condition.

“Neither Tatiana nor De Marco made any efforts to seek medical assistance for N.B., until the call at (9:46 p.m.) over seven hours later.

In addition to depriving N.B. (of) medical attention, De Marco also admitted

that he and Tatiana spent considerable efforts to clean the home and dispose of evidence, according to the reports.

“N.B. was a defenseless toddler,” Prosecuting Attorney Wyman Yip told a Superior Court judge Friday as he, Yip, asked the judge to set Baker’s bail at $1 million. “(The toddler) suffered severe and repeated physical abuse at the hands of the defendant and the defendant’s boyfriend. After beating 3-year-old N.B. until her body went limp and she lost consciousness, the defendant and her boyfriend were more concerned with themselves. … Instead of seeking medical attention for N.B., the defendant and her boyfriend cleaned the crime scene, disposed of evidence, and intentionally mislead police in order to save their own hides.”

Male breast lump? Get a mammogram Q. This question came

in from a male patient – I have a breast lump, what should I do?

A.

You should get a mammogram. More specifically, you should go to a full service regional breast diagnostic center to get an evaluation, which should begin with a mammogram.

Take comfort that male breast cancer is extremely rare, so most breast lumps in a man do not turn out to be cancer – but that does not put you out of the

WN! O N PE O

woods. Men do have milk ducts that never develop at puberty, so microscopically, some of these (rarely) can develop a breast cancer – simply just from bad luck.

Personally, in my 17-year breast radiology career, I have diagnosed about 10 or 12 male breast cancers, so it is possible that any one lump in any one man could be cancerous. Therefore, don’t procrastinate hoping it will go away.

The good thing about a mammogram in a male is

that it is extremely accurate in determining if the lump is benign. Most of the time the cause is either weight gain or gynecomastia, neither of which is cancerous.

If the mammogram alone is not able to make a clear-cut determination, your full service regional breast diagnostic center can do an ultrasound guided biopsy (hopefully right there on the spot), for a definitive diagnosis, but this does not need to be done very often. The mammogram is usually thorough enough to make

DOC TALK

and ignore pain. It starts early on the playground or ball field and is perpetuated throughout a man’s early life.

In fact, women are 33 percent more likely to visit a doctor in general, although the gap does narrow as we get older.

The problem is that, if we don’t eat right or exercise, then complicate it by avoiding the doctor, we only make it worse. If we don’t go, there is no opportunity to discover problems early and discuss solutions.

Would you only change the oil in your car when the “check engine” light came on? Of course not. We see the importance of preventive maintenance when it comes to our cars and other gear. Why not treat the equipment that makes up our body the same way? It is easy to live in denial, or as my friend likes to joke,

DENTAL HEALTH

June is the month we celebrate Father’s Day. A day for some fun, maybe a barbecue, watching a ball game on TV and drinking a few cold ones, right?

While I’m not trying to put a lid on your celebration, according to WebMD, men die at higher rates than women for all of the top 10 causes of death.

Of course, while we aren’t able to control every risk factor, there are many things that are within our control that will lower our risk of developing life-threatening conditions.

Many of the things covered below can be positively impacted by some habit changes.

So, why don’t men take better care of themselves?

It’s a complicated issue, rooted in part in the fact that men are still told by society too often that we are supposed to be tough

ASK DR. ULISSEY

Michael J. Ulissey

Why don’t men take care of their health?

“at least have a vacation condo there”.

Men will usually come to see a dentist for preventative visits far more often than they visit their MD, if they have even chosen one. Many men simply head to the urgent care clinic when they feel they need to see a doctor for a specific problem that has become too urgent or annoying to ignore.

Our patient’s regular dental visits give my team and I both the opportunity and responsibility to be on the lookout for signs and symptoms of possible general health issues, in men and women. Many health factors are connected, and having complete information is critical to helping you stay healthy.

Research is showing increasing associations between dental conditions and overall health. For example, heart disease, stroke, cancer, obesity, erectile dysfunction, rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer’s disease have all been shown to have an association with untreated gum disease.

[12] June 19, 2015 [ DR. RICH from page 11 ] increase to 70.1 percent. It ongoing research is being done that continues to support the view that chronic inflammation and infection anywhere in the body has a negative effect on your overall health.

Periodontal disease is a very common chronic inflammatory condition.

A study done in 2010 estimates that 47.2 percent of American adults have mild, moderate or severe periodontitis. In adults 65 and older, prevalence rates

has been estimated that the surface area of inflamed and infected area of gum tissue would be similar in size to the top of your thigh.

Even the most die-hard, doctor-avoiding guy would likely be headed to the emergency room if he had a wound that large, and yet they will often ignore bleeding when they brush as “no big deal”.

Below are some of the specific health conditions men deal with most commonly and their possible

www.auburn-reporter.com association with dental health.

Heart disease and stroke.

Oral bacteria may affect the heart when it enters the blood stream, attaching to fatty plaques in the coronary arteries (heart blood vessels) and contributing to clot formation. Blood clots can obstruct normal blood flow, and may lead to a heart attack.

Another theory is that the inflammation caused by gum disease contributes to swelling of the arteries.

Research has shown that

people with gum disease are almost twice as likely to have coronary artery disease. If the clot lodges in the brain instead of a heart artery, the result is a stroke.

Cancer. There has been an increase in oral cancer among men, even those who do not smoke or drink excessively. It is due to the HPV virus, which can be transmitted by oral sex.

There are vaccines available for men and women for the HPV virus.

Pancreatic cancer has also been found to have

an association with gum disease. In one study, men with a history of gum disease had over a 60 percent higher risk of developing pancreatic cancer than those who did not.

Obesity. One published study showed that obese individuals between the ages of 18 and 34 were found to have a rate of periodontal disease 76 percent higher than individuals within a normal weight range. While the connection between obesity and dental health is complex, part of the reason is likely a diet high in sugar and simple carbohydrates, which is inflammatory also, which only compounds the problem.

Diabetes. People with poor blood sugar control get gum disease more often and more severely, and they lose more teeth than do persons with good control of their diabetes. Since diabetics are more prone to infection and poor wound healing in general, it would make sense that they would be especially susceptible to gum disease.

Erectile disfunction, Alzheimer's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and sleep apnea are also health concerns for men and their relation to dental health.

OK guys, no more excuses about being “too busy” to care for your health, or “too tough” to be concerned

[ DR. ULISSEY from page 11 ] an assessment.

If it is gynecomastia, though, your doctor will need to do some further testing to find out why this is developing.

The list of things that can cause male gynecomastia is long, so I won’t get into it here – common things are side effects from various medicines, alcohol, street drugs (steroids, amphetamines), cannabis and health problems such as with the liver, kidneys, thyroid, or adrenal glands, so get it checked out, but first get that mammogram.

Q.

Why don’t men in general need mammograms?

have proposed it is a cultural stigma, I don’t think this is true. I think it boils down

Real men do floss, as well as a bunch of other things like eating right and exercise, to keep themselves healthy.

I think I know what you’re thinking: your choices only affect you, so what does it matter? It does matter … a lot. While we may be “driving the bus” that we call our lives, there are other passengers on that bus, whether it’s a spouse, children, parents, siblings, friends, coworkers or some combination.

Other people’s lives are affected by our choices, both positively and negatively. You may be driving the bus, but checking out early by “crashing and burning” or crossing the center line and causing a head-on collision, all because you didn’t do your preventive maintenance, affects a lot of other people besides yourself. I’ve committed to making several positive health changes this year. How about you?

to cost effectiveness for the population of men out there.

The incidence of male breast cancer, and the death rate from it, compared to women, is so low that it would not be cost effective to screen all men for breast cancer, like we do women.

The lifetime accumulated incidence of a man living to the age of 90 getting breast cancer is about one in 1,000, compared to a woman, which is about one in eight. And only about 400 men will die of breast cancer each year, so we would do better distributing our resources among other male conditions such as heart disease, strokes, and adult onset diabetes, to name just a few.

Tampa Bay snags Marsden in MLB draft Record-breaking curve, 93 mph heater, earn Lions hurler shot at bigs

BY SHAWN SKAGER sskager@auburn-reporter.com

On the mound, Justin Marsden is a bit of a late bloomer.

Although the Auburn Mountainview graduate has spent the greater part of his 18 years playing ball, starting with the Auburn Little League at the tender age of four, it wasn’t until the last couple of years that his true ability as a right-handed pitcher blossomed.

“I feel like it really took me awhile to develop,” Marsden said. “I never really won any awards or anything.”

That all changed for Marsden three weeks ago when the league named him 2015 South Puget Sound League 3A Player of the Year for his help driving the Lions to a fifth-place finish at the 3A state tour-

Justin Marsden on the bump for Auburn Mountainview this season. Marsden, a 6-4, 175-pounder, was selected in the 22nd round of the draft by the Major League Baseball Tampa Bay Rays. RACHEL CIAMPI, Reporter ney, with a 22-3-1 overall record.

He finished the year with a 7-0 record in 13 appearances, with two complete games and a save. In 59.2 innings pitched he notched a 0.70 earned run average

with 109 strikeouts, giving up just 23 hits and six earned runs.

More important than the accolades for Marsden, however – who had planned to play collegiate ball this fall at Central

Arizona College – is the opportunity he earned to play professionally with the Tampa Bay Rays organization, which selected the 6 foot, 4 inch, 175-pounder with the 658th pick in the 22nd round of the Major

League Baseball draft.

Projected by some to go even higher in the draft initially, Marsden can thank his appearance at the 2014 Area Code Games, a high school baseball showcase conducted each summer in California.

Last August, against a handful of the country’s most talented prep ballplayers, Marsden pitched two innings, giving up just three hits and striking out three.

More important, however, was the chance Marsden got to showcase his 93 mph fastball and his devastating curve for scouts.

According to TrackMan – a Danish company that uses a 3D Doppler radar system to measure pitches – Marsden’s curve has the highest spin rate of any they’ve measured, including professional Major League pitchers.

“I had a really good outing down there and found out how good my curveball really is, and how hard I was actually throwing,” Marsden said. [ more MARSDEN page 15 ]

Stryker Phd prevails in Budweiser Handicap, edges Noosito FOR THE REPORTER

Stryker Phd returned to action Sunday with a victory at Emerald Downs, but it wasn’t an easy one.

In a thrilling finish, the 2014 Washington Horse of the Year held off Noosito by a neck to win the $50,000 Budweiser Handicap for 3-year-olds and up.

Under regular rider Leslie Mawing at high weight of 122 pounds, Stryker Phd rallied from last place for the victory, running one mile in 1:35.57 on a fast track. Trained by Larry Ross for Jim and Mona Hour of Bellevue, Wash., Stryker Phd paid $3.40, $2.60 and $2.20.

A 6-year-old Washington-bred by BertrandoStriking Scholar, Stryker Phd has won his last five starts at Emerald Downs— all stakes races—and is 6-5-5 in 19 starts lifetime

[ MARSDEN from page 14 ] According to TrackMan, Marsden’s curve spins at 3,055 revolutions per minute. The MLB average is about 2,400.

For hitters, who look to the laces on a baseball to judge how fast it is spinning a fastball spins faster than a curveball – this means a ball with movement that mimics a straight-ahead heater.

“I didn’t even know there was a record at first,” he said. “Then I did a little research and found out more about it. Then I got a little happier about it.”

Marsden said he first began throwing the curve as a 10-year-old with the Auburn Little league.

“Then I had a couple guys help me out with it,” he said.

Among them were for-

with earnings of $348,151, including $27,500 for Sunday’s victory.

Noosito, ridden by Diego Sanchez at 118 pounds, was clearly second best and paid $4.40 and $3.40.

Last year’s state champion 3-year-old is 5-2-3 in 11 career starts with earnings of $168,403.

Absolutely Cool, with Rocco Bowen riding at 119 pounds, was 2½ lengths back in third and paid $5.

Stryker Phd joined Noosa Beach (2010-2011) as horses to win back-to-back runnings of the Budweiser.

Noosa Beach, coincidentally, is the older brother of the 4-year-old colt that nearly denied Stryker Phd on Sunday.

“It was all horse today, I was just along for the ride,” Mawing said. “I just had to place the horse in the perfect position, which I was able to. There was a mer Major League pitcher Jim Parque – his club coach at Big League Edge – his coach at Auburn Mountainview, Glen Walker, his high school pitching coach, Chuck Schroeder, and his father, Dan Marsden.

In addition to the curve and fastball, Marsden throws a changeup, which he is trying to improve.

Although it is the curve that stands out immediately to onlookers, Marsden credits his work ethic over the past couple years for elevating him from merely a decent player to a bona fide ace. He credits the Lions 2013 Washington State Championship team for teaching him that work ethic.

“We lost all of our dudes from the varsity team after the state championship,” he said. “So that summer I started thinking that I

Baseball helps Marsden deal with learning disability Justin Marsden’s curve may have come easy for him, but grades are a different story.

“In classes I’ve always felt like I wasn’t normal because it takes me a bit longer to learn things,” Marsden said. “It takes me a while to tell somebody something right, it ends up confusing for them and me.”

Diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, in addition to a learning disability, Marsden said baseball is a chance for him to “feel like a normal kid.”

“When I step on the field, it’s like nothing’s wrong with me. I feel like every other kid does every day, I’m not struggling,” he said. “Out on the field I learn faster than I ever have in a classroom. I’m comfortable out there.”

Baseball helps in the classroom, too, Marsden said.

“I learn a lot slower than other people,” he said. “But I feel baseball has helped me out because I can put everything into baseball terms. I learn math faster because I put it into stats.”

lot of speed. When we hit the five-sixteenths pole, we were just on cruise control.

“He knows where the finish line is,” Mawing added. “He has his quirks, but I just like to ride the horse. I don’t like to change his style.”

While Stryker Phd unleashed a powerful wide rally on the last turn, Noosito kicked into high gear on the rail, and the two state champions hooked up past mid-stretch in a nip and tuck battle to the wire with Stryker Phd

narrowly best.

“The trainer (Doris Harwood) told me he had good speed and he’ll go inside or outside, whatever I want him to do,” Sanchez said.

“It was a little tight at the three-eighths pole but we got through on the inside.

He saw that horse on the outside near the end and I could feel him fight back.”

Scat Daddybaby, the leader through fractions of :22.87, :45.83 and 1:10.01, relinquished command into the lane and finished fourth. Prohibition, Mebossman, Shooting Jacket, Mike Man’s Gold, Del Rio Harbor, Trick Or Retreat and Until You completed the order of finish. Twistgrips was a late scratch.

Washington-breds finished first, second and third, and the stirring stretch drive could signal a new rivalry between

needed to step up and be the dude. We lost all our guys, and I needed to fill some pretty big shoes after guys like Nick Brooks [now playing for Gonzaga University] left.”

In addition to committing to a lifting regimen that added bulk to power his fastball, Marsden said he worked hard to keep his arm flexible and healthy.

“I did a lot of band work also, so my arm would always be healthy, which I’m happy I did because I haven’t had a lot of the arm issues that some of my friends have. So I’ve been able to get better than taking breaks,” Marsden said.

After a disappointing 2014 season, which saw the Lions eliminated in the first round of the regional playoffs, Marsden said, he and the team’s soon-to-be seniors decided to put an emphasis on chemistry and bonding.

“We decided we needed to play more as a family and not so much as individuals,” Marsden said.

“Before we played together, but we really had our cliques. Like the outfielders and the infielders. It wasn’t a team. We tried, but we weren’t a team. This year we played more as a family.”

Marsden added: “This year we wanted to be the best team Walker ever had; we wanted to take him all the way again,” Marsden said.

Although the quest ended shy of another

state title this year with a fifth-place finish at the 3A tourney, Marsden said he is still pleased with what the team accomplished.

“I feel like we could have done better, but I’m glad I was part of this team, I’ll miss them all. We’re

basically all brothers and family out here.”

And for himself, he’s just pleased to get a chance to play at the next level, whether he decides to start on the professional path with the Rays or with Central Arizona.

Stryker Phd is on the same schedule as a year ago, when he reeled off last-to-first victories in the Budweiser Handicap, Mt. Rainier Handicap and Longacres Mile.

“It’s like Chum Salmon reborn,” Larry Ross, said comparing Stryker Phd to Washington Hall of Famer Chum Salmon, whose 1985 Longacres Mile win is considered among the top races in state history. “It’s like watching Chummer all over again.”

“I feel really blessed because I get to play more,” he said. “I put in a lot of hard work and gave up my social life to get here. I’m at the gym every day working out and throwing or coaching at Big League Edge. Now it’s paying off.”

Auburn musician scores $50,000 Lottery win FOR THE REPORTER

Auburn’s Nicholas Deonigi recently bought a winning ‘Lucky 13’ Scratch ticket, earning $50,000. COURTESY PHOTO, Washington’s Lottery.

Nicholas Deonigi of Auburn is excited to fuel his career as a musician thanks to his $50,000 Lottery win claimed on May 26.

Deonigi purchased a “Lucky 13” Scratch ticket from Preston General Store (30365 SE High Point Way) in Preston on his way to play golf with some friends.

“I had a show the night before, I was pretty tired and wanted to stop at the store to get some coffee,” Deonigi shared with Lottery officials. “I saw the Lottery machine and thought, ‘what the heck,’ because I’ve won smaller amounts playing before.”

Deonigi said he scratched the ticket when he got back in the car with his friends.

“When I first realized I won, I had my friend sitting next to me double-check the ticket to make

sure I wasn’t seeing things,” Deonigi said. “Once he verified the win, I shared the news with the group and said, “I just won $50,000 – I guess golf is on me!’”

The singer/songwriter also shared that this win will help his make his favorite hobby a bit more significant.

“I just released a record actually, this win couldn’t have come at a better time! I’ll use most of the money to invest in my art,” Deonigi said.

Proceeds from Washington’s Lottery benefit the Washington Opportunity Pathways Account, providing grants to college students statewide.
