Cascade Water Alliance CEO Chuck Clarke announced July 9 that the Seattle water system’s outlook has been changed from good to fair.

Seattle Public Utilities supplies water to the Alliance, which in turn serves the cities of Bellevue, Redmond, Kirkland, Issaquah and Tukwila, as well as the Sammamish Plateau and Skyway water and sewer districts.

The downgrade in the water supply was caused by several factors, including the hottest June in the Seattle area’s recorded history, accompanying higherthan-average water consumption and low stream flows into water reservoirs, SEE WATER, 5

Tent City 4 moves to Snoqualmie Sammamish passes new TIP ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Gunners capture Northwest title -Page 8-

Water outlook bumped from ‘good’ to ‘fair’

Homeless encampment Tent City 4 relocated away from Issaquah Saturday, moving to county lands near Echo Lake and Interstate 90 in the Snoqualmie Valley.

The encampment, operated by homeless resource network SHARE/WHEEL, had been based off of Exit 20 on I-90 since March 14, occupying a gated road in the High Point area immediately east of Issaquah’s city limits.

“We’re going to miss High Point,” camp adviser Sam Roberson said over the phone Tuesday. “It was a great place and we met a lot of good people.”

Thirty-one residents, well stocked with supplies donated during their last stay, pulled up their stakes to relocate to the Echo Lake Interchange, owned by King County. SHARE/WHEEL has sent a letter to King County Executive Dow Constantine requesting permission to occupy the land, including a check for $500, Roberson said. He said he expected a response from county officials by

Tuesday.

The unorthodox application was a repeat of the encampment’s move in March, when Tent City 4 relocated to High Point without a permit following a failed bid to camp in what is now the trailhead of the Cougar-Squak Corridor. King County officials denied a request by SHARE/WHEEL to use Cougar-Squak, citing ongoing construction work, nonexistent utilities infrastructure and restrictions attached to the site’s funding.

Tent City 4’s residents first attempted to move out to the corridor anyway, before rerouting when King County deployed sheriff ’s deputies to guard the site.

The High Point occupation was a back-up and a move that would unintentionally turn out to be an effective Plan B. SHARE/WHEEL officials initially believed that the land was in the state’s jurisdiction and state officials spent days pinning down the exact ownership of the land. It would be nearly a week before they determined the land had been deeded to the county in 1979.

Plan includes $90.2 million in transportation projects

BY MEGAN CAMPBELL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

The Sammamish City Council passed 6-1 an update to the six-year transportation improvement plan at its July 7 meeting.

The plan, a state-required itemized list to be updated annually, details more than 10 specific projects, including addressing Sahalee Way Northeast and Issaquah-Fall City Road. In total, the lists includes about $90.2 million in improvement projects.

Challenge races come to Issaquah

Goats graze on the hillside behind a 26th Court Street Northeast home Monday afternoon.

Goats return to Iss. Highlands

BY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Goats have returned to the Issaquah Highlands to clean up dry growth on the area’s steep hillsides, with nothing but the power of their prodigious appetites.

Since 2009, the Issaquah Highlands Community Association has rented goats as an environmentally friendly means of managing landscape overgrowth in neighborhoods. The sure-footed animals are able to easily manage sharply sloped terrain and their use precludes fossil fuel use that would come with a mechanical mower.

The Community Association has hired

Rent-A-Ruminant and Healing Hooves to provide the goats.

In 2010, Rent-A-Ruminant and company owner Tammy Dunakin were featured on “People Destroying America,” a tongue-incheek segment on Comedy Central’s “The Colbert Report.” The segment included footage of Rent-A-Ruminant’s work on the Issaquah Highlands.

On Monday, the goats were stationed near Daphne Park and Dahlia Park. They will relocate once a week, an employee of the Community Association said.

For the 18th year in a row, pairs of children will clamber into double-wide fiberglass cars for the 2015 soapbox Challenge Series Races in Issaquah Saturday.

The event will partner middle and high school volunteers with children who have special needs.

The nonprofit Life Enrichment Options will host the free event along Second Avenue Southeast from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Registration starts at 8 a.m.; participants will meet at the Issaquah Community Center at 301 Rainier Blvd. S. During an afternoon break, volunteers from the Rotary Club of Issaquah will provide lunch during the award ceremony at noon.

The free event will block off Second Avenue Southeast, from Southeast Andrews

Street to Southeast Darst Street, starting at 7 a.m.

Life Enrichment Options is a community-based organization dedicated to supporting those with developmental disabilities. The statewide Challenge Races 2015 series began in Spokane June 20. It will continue in several Eastside cities, including in Sammamish Aug. 22, and ends mid-September in Snoqualmie.

“It’s just kind of one of those heartwarming events,” said Fred Nystrom, executive director of Life Enrichment Options. “It’s become, really, a nice community event.”

Nystrom expects about 30 children with special needs will participate in the race.

Find out more about salmon projects July 22 The Friends of the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery will host a community meeting on recent work to protect salmon later this month.

The meeting will be held at 6:30 p.m. July 22 in the picnic shelter at Confluence Park. Confluence Park is currently the site of a $1 million habitat res-

toration project widening the east fork of Issaquah Creek to better accommodate annual salmon migration to the nearby hatchery. The project includes reconstruction of floodplain and stream areas, habitat improvements and the replanting of native vegetation.

The meeting will feature

presentations from two city of Issaquah employees closely involved with efforts to aid salmon, Surface Water Manager Kerry Ritland and Environmental Science Associate Dana Zlateff.

Admission is free, though FISH will accept donations at the event.

Refreshments will be provided.

Woman killed crossing I-90

BY DANIEL NASH

The Blotter

Police reports from Sammamish

ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

June 16

A witness to a collision on Interstate 90 was struck and killed by a car while crossing the highway Wednesday morning, Washington State Patrol reported.

The woman, from Duvall, was hit by a Mercedes sedan driven by an Issaquah woman in the HOV lane of westbound I-90, west of State Route 900, state patrol spokesman and Trooper Chris Webb said.

No one else was injured in the collision, Webb said.

The Washington State Patrol has not filed charges.

THAT’S SO MEAN: Someone splattered paint on the front door of a residence in the 21800 block of Northeast 30th Place and wrote “DIE” in pink paint on the driveway.

Luden waives right to speedy murder trial A 24-year-old Pullman man accused of murdering his father, a Sammamish resident, waived his right to a speedy trial in the Whitman County Superior Court Friday, July 11, the Pullman Daily News reported.

Erik Luden faces one count of second-degree murder for his alleged role in the death of Virgil Luden, 58, May 30. The

elder Luden was a longtime Sammamish businessman.

Pullman authorities had responded to Erik Luden’s 911 call, where he reportedly told dispatchers his father had attacked him with a kitchen knife. The younger Luden said he fought back, hitting his father over the head with a kitchen pot.

Luden first appeared in court June 1.

LARCENY: Three vehicles were broken into, one thought to have been locked, on the 21200 block of Northeast 13th Court a couple days prior to the report. The owners found the contents of all three glove boxes strewn about.

June 18 THE UNCLAIMED LIST: Several items from the Skyline High School lost and found were turned over to the Sammamish Police Department.

The found property — three cellphones, one Nintendo DS game and one lady’s watch — had not been claimed during the school year.

June 19 ROAD RAGE: Someone intentionally rammed a vehicle off West

Page 3

Beaver lake Drive Southeast, causing the victim to collide into the ditch.

The unknown person rammed the stalled vehicle again before fleeing the scene.

June 20 OVERDOSE: A 17-year-old Skyline High School student was taken to Swedish Medical Center in Issaquah after apparently overdosing on alcohol at an underaged party in the 26500 block of Southeast 19 Court in Sammamish. The parents and owners of the home were unaware some teens snuck alcohol and marijuana into the downstairs area, where the girl reportedly had six shots and two beers within an hour before passing out.

June 21 NOT SAFE UNDER THE SEAT: After breaking the front passenger window of a vehicle parked in the Sammamish Landing Park located at 4607 East Lake Sammamish Parkway N.E., an unknown suspect stole a Redmond woman’s purse she had hidden under the passenger seat. The value of the purse and approximate damage totals to $340.

AN ‘E’ IS ALL THE DIFFERENCE: Police detained a 40-year-old Sam-

mamish man off of 228th Avenue Southeast on suspicion that he had a $10,000 bail set out of Mukilteo, Washington, for driving while under the influence. The detained man insisted the officer had made a mistake, as the detainee had previously used his brother’s name when questioned by police. His brother’s first name, which was logged into the police’s system as an alternative for the man, closely matched the name of the wanted man; it was just missing an “e.” Once the officer requested a photo and realized he had the wrong man, the officer released him.

June 22 DRUG ACTIVITY REPORTED: A resident on the 20900 block of Southeast Eighth Place reported an ongoing issue with drug activity at the cul de sac down the road. She reported seeing several different vehicles drive to the end of the road and flashing lighters in the parked vehicles.

June 23 DIDN’T HAVE A NICKEL: Someone broke the front passenger window of a vehicle parked in the 1400 block of West Beaver Lake Drive and stole a reusable grocery bag from the front passenger side floorboard.

Term vs. Permanent Insurance: Which is Right for You?

My aging parents need to downsize –

How do you advise they do that while minimizing the impact of the stress and strain this move will cause?

My clients teach me too: recently I’ve had the privilege of helping a delightful family downsize, and what stuck with me was their declaration that “finding something to move to that they LOVED helped them with this difficult transition.” I also find it helps for our elders to be involved and informed, if possible, in the decision making and information sharing: PAMELA BELLAH 1) Meet with a Realtor to plan and establish good REALTOR/BROKER communication; designate 1 family member with whom the Realtor communicates-who will share information with other family members; 2) Have your Realtor help find a home for your elder(s) before placing their home for sale; this will help them feel secure about this change which will help minimize their (and your) stress.

Numerous studies continue to question the safety of cumulative exposures of radiation from routine screening with mammography (each mammogram is the radiation equivalent of 1,000 X-rays). This is not the case with Thermography.

Thermography emits nothing, it only takes an image. Nothing touches you and it is quick and painless.

Thermography is great for frequent health screening with no chance of danger.

I get asked a lot about glucosamine and chondroitin by patients. They are, in theory, will help reduce the rate of joint degradation.

Although, glucosamine is often compared to Tylenol, it is also unreliable.

According to a research published by the British Medical Journal, compared to placebo, glucosamine/chondroitin and their combination do not reduce joint pain or have an impact on narrowing of joint space.

Other studies have shown more promising DR. BRIAN TIU results, Rheumatology International concluded that glucosamine and chondroitin might slow the progression of osteoarthritis (as measured by X-ray change) although it requires you taking it daily over 2-3 years.

Bottom Line: With glucosamine, it helps with osteoarthritis, but not much.

So, the question you need to be asking yourself is, “am I willing to pay that much on a supplement that might help or may make no difference to my pain or progression of arthritis?”

Thermography – The New Mammography Is it Safe?

You need life insurance to protect your family’s financial future in case something happens to you. But which type should you choose: Term or permanent?

As its name suggests, term insurance is designed to last for a specific time period, such as five, 10 or 20 years. So, you might consider term insurance if you only need coverage to protect a goal with an “end date,” such as paying off your mortgage or seeing your children JOE BILSBOROUGH through college. Term insurance also may be a FINANCIAL ADVISOR reasonable choice if you need a lot of coverage but can’t afford permanent insurance.

Permanent insurance may be a reasonable choice if you want to ensure a guaranteed death benefit for life, rather than just for a certain time period.

Permanent insurance is more expensive because your premiums also provide you with the opportunity to build cash value.

Think carefully about which type of insurance is right for you. But don’t delay in getting the coverage your family needs —the future is unpredictable, so it pays to be prepared.

End of state legislative session

Clutter added up

I

t seems hard to believe — but it wasn’t only the budget that sent the legislature into three special sessions this year. There were many factors. We guess that one was the sheer volume of bills and laws, introduced and reintroduced, parsed, reviewed, thrown out or resurrected that kept lawmakers busy. Perhaps the budget impasse came about because of the amount of time spent in meetings, hearings or reviews on way too many topics.

It is not that simple of course. There are many needs, many moving parts to be tinkered with, reconsidered or replaced.

But let’s take a look at some of the bills, laws and amendments that were acted on or processed in some way this year. A quick sample includes: HB 1560 - concerning “recognizing the 31st of March as Cesar Chavez Day” to HB 5540 - on whether or not to “recognize the national day of the cowboy,” to HB 1071 - regarding “making technical changes to form year designations.”

Then there is H2SHB 1391 which concerns “aligning functions of the consolidated technology services agency, office of the chief information officer, and department of enterprise services.” Our favorite item concerned “allowing the filing of a special allegation of a nefarious drone enterprise.”

None of these issues by themselves might have been complex or time-consuming. But it all adds up.

There were, of course, many important topics dealt with during the sessions. Lawmakers discussed mental health services, protecting both children and vulnerable adults.

There were deals and decisions made regarding funding transportation projects and education and the economy.

We wish our elected representatives and their staffs had more time to focus on what they know and we know are the most important and urgent issues.

On lawmakers lists this session: ‘nefarious drone enterprises’

To the editor Questionable Sahalee Way project

Light rail not the issue extra I-90 land needed

The Sammamish City Council recently approved a six-year transportation improvement plan that includes a nearly $16 million project to “improve” Sahalee Way from 25th to SR 202.

There are several problems with the project. First, from 25th Way to 28th Way, left turns (for which a new lane would be added) are not even possible; both sides are steep ravines. Next, north of 37th Way, the responsible parties (the County and State) have no committed funds for this part of the “improvement”, so after completion there will still be a bottleneck north of 37th. Finally, there’s no plan for improving south of 25th. Finally, $16 million seems too low for this complicated project.

The plan appears rushed and ill-conceived, and of questionable priority at a time when the city is talking about expenditures of more than $200 million over the next few years.

Our city council, under Mayor Vance, has been on an unguided spending spree that inevitably will result in taking on millions in debt, or worse yet, require new taxes— while having no real benefit for the citizens. We must take a step back and rethink our priorities on all of our city’s expenditures.

The July 10, 2015 Bellevue Reporter’s Opinion page editorial “It takes time” and a “Sound Transit light rail work too late” letter to the editor about light rail in Bellevue ignore the real problem with public transit in our area. That is the failure of Sound Transit to add a fourth lane to the I-90 outer roadway to accommodate non-transit HOV traffic and initiate two-way bus only lanes on the bridge center roadway.

They could have been done it 15 years ago with a tiny fraction of the funds they’ve spent on East Link and provide ten times its transit capacity with access from every P&R in the area. Doing so is the only way to reduce the areas congestion.

Innovation is the key to reducing pollutants Bill Gates breathes the truth about renewable energy in the Financial Times July 3. His views included that renewable energy technologies aren’t available solutions for reducing CO2 levels and governments should divert their green subsidies into research and development. The only positive scenario is by great innovation.

These are the facts you need to face: The carbon emissions savings. You have accomplished while

suffering the inconveniences and expense of driving a Prius, buying fabric grocery bags, sitting up ‘til midnight to finish your kid’s “The Green Revolution” science project, throwing out all your non green cleaning supplies, using only two squares of toilet paper, replacing all your 50 cent light bulbs with a $10 light bulb.

The fact of the matter is that all the brush and forest fires in Washington, British Columbia and Idaho, will negate all your efforts to reduce carbon in our world for the next two to three years.

The list, however, does not commit the city to any financial obligations; it simply spells out the list of transportation priorities for the city, looking as far ahead as 2021.

It also acts as the city’s guide for budgeting transportation projects during the budget process, City Manager Ben Yazici said.

In order to receive grant funding, projects must be listed on this improvement plan.

City staff removed the local improvement districts projects, which had been in the city’s TIP for more than five years. This had allowed individual neighborhoods to apply for small improvements, which the city would match up to 50 percent of the funding. But there had never been any citizen interest in the project, Yazici said.

Removing it from the list made way for improvements to Issaquah-Fall City Road, one of the notable changes made to the TIP.

Improvements, such as widening to a three-lane configuration, on IssaquahFall City Road will extend from Klahanie Drive Southeast to Issaquah-Beaver Lake Road. It’s estimated the total cost will be $9 million after several years of work.

There are about nine road-specific improvement projects. Work along the soon-to-be annexed Klahanie area, specifically Issaquah-Pine Lake Road and Issaquah-Fall City Road, was broken into four projects.

Other items in the TIP include repaying the Public Works Trust Fund for previous improvements to 228th Avenue Northeast and various sidewalk projects throughout the city.

Councilmember Ramiro Valderrama-Aramayo was the lone opposition vote, due to his concern, among others, regarding how these projects would be funded.

City sets date for meeting on crosswalk safety

BY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

After announcing it would undertake a review of pedestrian crossings in the city that would include a community meeting, city of Issaquah staff announced Monday they had set a community open house for 6 p.m.

July 27. The review and open house are being undertaken as a response to community outrage over the death of 4-year-old Haochen Xu at a Newport Way Northwest crosswalk outside his neighborhood.

The community open house will take place at Tibbetts Creek Manor, 750 17th Ave. N.W. Xu was struck by a vehicle outside the Summerhill neighborhood June 26, while crossing Newport Way Northwest with his mother. He died the next day at Harborview in Seattle.

Summerhill residents and other Issaquah community members attended the subsequent July 6 meeting of the Issaquah City Council to demand a reduced speed limit along Newport Way Northwest, as well as improvements to pedestrian crossings. Several speak-

ers noted that signal lights attached to the Summerhill crosswalk rarely work — one, Olde Town resident Malia Greening-Bechtel, recorded and presented her independent investigation of the crosswalks at the meeting, showing video of a friend unsuccessfully attempting to activate the crosswalk lights herself.

The city’s review of the crossings will include input from an independent transportation expert.

Bejjani appointed to lake management board

BY MEGAN CAMPBELL THE ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Sammamish resident Bassem Bejjani will fill one of the two vacant spots on the Beaver Lake Management Board without going through the normal interview process. The city council approved the appointment on July 7.

Bejjani lives within the Beaver Lake Management District.

City staff recommended skipping the normal proceed-

ings for filling the empty spot because the board has been operating half-staffed for several months.

The council created the Beaver Lake district in 2006.

The unpaid board members, who represent diverse Beaver Lake watershed property owners, are charged with assisting the city in implementing the Lake Management District program.

according to information from Seattle Public Utilities. The agency makes use of the Cedar River and South Fork Tolt River watersheds, which recorded zero inches of rain and precipitation in the week preceding July 4.

Seattle Public Utilities is making adjustments to maximize water supply, but water users are being asked to voluntarily monitor their use.

“We are asking residents to continue to use water wisely,” Clarke said in a press release. “There is still water for consumption adequate for use until the rain returns in the fall. But in the meantime, everyone should continue their strong ethic of being careful with this resource.”

Powers could come early October

BY MEGAN CAMPBELL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Sammamish residents could have initiative and referendum powers by Oct. 11 — as long as the Sammamish City Council passes the legislation at the Tuesday, July 21, meeting and citizens don’t stop it in the meantime.

The council had its first reading of the ordinance Tuesday, July 14. The legislation would grant residents limited powers to create or repeal laws within the city by way of petition.

Friday, July 17, 2015

TENT CITY CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

The council decided to put the matter up to the public in the April special election. That nonbinding advisory vote passed at 55 percent approval with a 24 percent voter turnout.

The council passed 5-2 an intent to adopt citizen-enacted initiative and referendum powers during its July 7 meeting.

The resolution was published July 13, giving citizens 90 days to gather signatures for a referendum that would stop the ordinance. Appealing the decision is only necessary if the council approves the ordinance July 21.

King County officials opted not to evict the camp. SHARE/WHEEL submitted a check to the county and prepared to stay for 120 days — the maximum allowable time for a temporary encampment under an ordinance passed in December.

Now events are repeating themselves in Snoqualmie, minus March’s drama.

“Things are going really good so far,” Roberson said of camp set-up. “Except we’re just waiting on the permit.”

SHARE/WHEEL’s existing model for Tent City 4 calls for the encampment to stay on the properties of faith-based organizations for 90 days at a time. Roberson said that as Eastside cities have passed ordinances limiting homeless encampments’ tenure in city limits, often to once a year, those options have become hard to come by.

Sammamish was the city to most recently pass such an ordinance, in July 2014. The ordinance was passed six months after Tent City 4 left Mary, Queen of Peace, a tenure which saw two residents arrested — and eight ejected from

the camp — for methamphetamine activity.

One group concerned with homelessness east of Lake Washington, the Eastside Interfaith Social Services Council has recently begun calling for cities to relax their ordinances.

Diane Richards, the president of EISCC (pronounced “ice”), attended a meeting of the Bellevue City Council Monday night asking lawmakers to allow multiple homeless encampments to stay in the city for 120 days at a time. Richards requested Bellevue lawmakers join those of other Eastside cities to draw up a regional ordinance for homeless encampments.

“The tent cities are only a part of addressing homelessness,” Richards said. “But it’s an important part.”

Long term, Tent City 4 is in discussion with a Kirkland-area church to set up camp in November, Roberson said. He declined to identify the church at this time.

The Reporter contacted the office of King County Executive Dow Constantine Monday regarding Tent City 4’s relocation to Snoqualmie and received promise of contact with a spokesperson. A spokesperson had not contacted the newspaper by press time Wednesday.

Eastlake juniors named finalists in national ‘Genes in Space’ contest Students attend ISS conference in Boston July 7

BY MEGAN CAMPBELL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Two Eastlake High School juniors were in Boston last week presenting their proposal to test a particular bacteria’s DNA about 220 miles above Earth’s surface.

If they could figure out what makes the OU-20 bacteria special — to identify

Eastlake High School bio-tech teacher Lara Hollingworth demonstrates how the PCR machine works in her classroom in June.

how it survived for more than a year and a half on the outside of the International Space Station from 2008 to 2010 — Thiago Bandeira, 16, and Jonathan Chang, 17, could influence the future of agriculture.

But before they could jump to farming on Mars, they had to contend with many variables, including winning the contest that would make their proposal a reality.

“The project was really, really hypothetical,” Bandeira said. “It’s pretty cool because you get to wonder.”

They were named finalists in the national “Genes in Space” contest; the winning experiment will be conducted on the space station.

Students, grades 7-12, were tasked with designing an experiment that, through DNA analysis, would solve a real-life space exploration problem. The five final teams gave presentations at the three-day ISS Research & Development Conference in Boston July 7.

Every contestant’s experiment involved the use of PCR (polymerase chain

reaction) technology. This technology is widely used on Earth, but has never been tested in space before, Harvard Assistant Director of Undergraduate Studies Martin Samuels said.

Every finalist was matched, for coaching purposes, to a scientist with a Ph.D. Leading up to the conference, Samuels mentored Bandeira and Chang, talking through the specifics of their proposal, examining the realities and unknowns.

“They are both very motivated, bright, and they’re really creative,” Samuels said.

The miniPCR machine, the specific brand and type to be used in the space experiment, essentially copies small segments of DNA for close analysis.

Bandeira and Chang had hoped to use the technology to find and examine the bit of DNA that gives the OU-20 bacteria its ability to survive extreme temperature shifts, ultraviolet light and cosmic rays.

“Genes in Space allows students to explore a tremendous amount of potential questions while focusing

As a reward, the finalists’ school will receive a new miniPCR machine.

Bandeira said this “fancy” machine — as compared to the older one they currently

use — will be a good edition in the classroom for their bio-tech teacher, Lara Hollingworth, who has been teaching for seven or eight years at Eastlake.

Hollingworth had initially assigned the Genes in Space contest as homework, building off the course material that had been using the PCR machine to examine DNA sequences, but Bandeira and Chang were the only ones to submit it to the contest.

Gunners capture Northwest title

BY SHAUN SCOTT ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Sometimes capturing a tie on the soccer field is just as good as a triumphant victory.

This was especially true for the Issaquah Gunners women’s soccer team in their final regular season contest of the 2015 season against FC Tacoma.

Issaquah and Tacoma battled to a 1-1 tie July 10 at Issaquah High School.

The Gunners clinched the Women’s Premier Soccer League Northwest Division championship with the tie.

Issaquah finished the regular season with an overall record of 8-0-2.

The Gunners took a 1-0 lead when Joana Houplin recorded the first goal of the night in the 41st minute of play. Tacoma tied the contest at 1-1 on Jackie Corley’s goal in the 49th minute.

The Gunners fended off a frantic offensive onslaught

by Tacoma in the final 10 minutes of the game.

Tacoma unleashed three shots on goal in the final 10 minutes but couldn’t find the back of the net. Tacoma pulled their goalie out of

the box twice in the final five minutes of regulation in an all-out effort to capture the game-winning goal. Gunners’ head coach Gareth Vaughan was proud of his defense for rising to the occasion with the division title on the line.

“The defense has been fantastic all season long.

It wasn’t just today. The back four (defenders) and two defensive midfielders worked extremely hard.

Our goalkeeper made some crucial saves and did what she needed to do,” Vaughan said. “We deserve this. It wasn’t pretty but at the end of the day we got the result we deserved and the result we wanted. We’re going to the playoffs.”

The Gunners will host the WPSL Western Regional playoffs this weekend at Issaquah High School.

“Our goal is to go out and win it,” Vaughan said.

“I think the group we have here right now is a nice blend of experience and youth. It is going to be a difficult weekend but I think we are more than capable of winning it.”
