City staff working to protect itself from cyber attacks BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com
Regarding the strength of the City of Auburn’s information security systems today: it’s good, very good. To the 500 employees with sensitive information stored in
the City’s computer systems, be it Social Security numbers, driver’s license data, health care information, or even something as simple as an application for the Family Medical Leave Act, that’s very good news. Good news alike for police officers who deal with extremely
sensitive information every day in their contacts with the FBI, the Washington State Patrol, the Central Justice Information Center and other state and federal agencies and who must follow strict security protocols to access it. Good news as well for the City’s finance department, which
processes roughly 24,000 financial transactions a month, including credit card transactions. But as good as the City’s systems are now, there can be no resting on today’s laurels. As David Haugan, Information and Technology director for the City of Auburn, recently told City
leaders, the way to keep things secure is to stay ahead of the guys with long, bony fingers lurking in the shadows beyond the firelight. Or in plainer terms, avid cyber thieves in Russia, China, the old Baltic states and elsewhere. [ more SECURITY page 4 ]

Auburn School District’s enrollment continues to trend upward. Cindi Blansfield, the district’s assistant superintendent for business and operations, said the district had 15,663 students enrolled Oct. 1, which is 266 more than

Local community must pull together to stop domestic violence, Brown urges BY MARK KLAAS mklaas@auburn-reporter.com
Stepping out of the shadows of her sister’s death, Denise Brown has found light and purpose. She travels throughout the country – and the world – to speak about the ravages of domestic violence. Last Friday, she visited Auburn, joining community and area leaders to discuss the problem and to remember her sister,
Nicole Brown, the ex-wife of O.J. Simpson, who was murdered along with her friend outside her Southern California home on June 12, 1994. The pain of her sister’s death still stings today for Brown, who shared personal, family photos of her late sister with the public for the first time. “It just breaks my heart. It’s been 21 years and it still chills me. It doesn’t get easier, the tears get less,” Brown

told a large gathering at Grace Community Church for a community-sponsored domestic violence event. “We were so close. We were always together, always watching each other’s backs … always doing things together. “She lived a nightmare,” Brown said, “and I didn’t know anything about that nightmare until we read her notes in her diary. … Nicole never talked about it. She never let us know that anything was wrong in her life.” Shortly after her death, the Nicole Brown Foundation was established to provide urgently needed funding to battered women shelters throughout the country. Reforms followed. Congress passed the Violence Against Women Act. Nearly every state in the nation passed laws to help prevent domestic violence. The laws and increased availability of counseling and shelter programs are subsequently saving lives, according to experts, but the problem isn’t going away. As Mayor Nancy Backus put it, “(Auburn’s DV) statistics are alarming.” More work is needed, Brown said. She and her family remain committed
to the cause, immersing themselves in the education of the cycle of violence. In the aftermath of her sister’s death, Brown stepped in. She channeled her grief over her sister’s death into advocacy for women who live the same kind of violence she says her sister kept hidden before her death. She is working to stop domestic violence, and tours and speaks throughout the country on the issue at shelters, schools, churches, hospitals and prisons. “I realized there are more people out there who have been devastated by domestic violence,” Brown said, “and I wasn’t the only one determined to end the epidemic of domestic violence. There were so many people. “A whole new world opened up to me,” she said. “I knew nothing about it, but I learned about it really fast. I learned it first hand, through my travels, talking to people and their stories.” Brown learns something new at each visit. The community, she said, must pull together to stop the problem. “You need to spread the word … you can be strong and save a life,” Brown told the audience. “I pledge to continue my

It was the first time Brown showed family photos of her sister at a public event.

If people are not involved, somebody could end up losing their life. And you know what? This is about not losing lives,” she said. “We want to save
lives and have communities working together so we can put an end to domestic violence.”

Backus to serve on board to address area homelessness FOR THE REPORTER
Mayor Nancy Backus will represent the City of Auburn and Sound Cities Association on the new 28-member All Home Coordinating Board. The board is designed to analyze, strategize and ensure change, bringing a diverse body of stakeholders working to address the issues of homelessness and leverage the expertise and resources of the partners and the wider community in collaborative support of a strategic plan. All Home – formerly the Committee to End Homelessness – is a partnership to make homelessness in King County rare, brief and one-time. All Home brings together local governments, religious institutions, nonprofits, philanthropic organizations, shelter and housing providers, the private sector and engaged citizens in a coordinated effort that responds to the immediate crisis of
homeless individuals and addresses the root causes of the problem in our region. The board has begun implementing a new four-year plan to address homelessness in the county. The new name is intended to emphasize that it takes a communitywide effort to tackle the problem of homelessness. “It is not just the name change that will make the difference,” Backus said. “It is the renewed and pragmatic effort of the entire region that will. It can no longer be accepted that children and families are forced to live on our streets.” According to officials, homelessness is a crisis in King County. In 2015 alone, nearly 10,000 people are experiencing homelessness on a given day, and nearly 40 percent are unsheltered. To learn more, visit allhomekc.org.

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, or HIPAA. It’s critically important that the City do so, he said, because information security is changing every single day. Last year hackers hit Home Depot and 58 million records were lost. Hackers hit Anthem Health and 170 million records were compromised. “It’s gotten up to the point where the U.S. Army got hacked and lost 76 million records. And (recently) Apple Computer got hacked. That’s the gold standard in the IT world. Apple has been notoriously good about cyber security, yet even they got hit,” Haugan said. “…We have a complex city here, one that is diversified, and it’s not going to get any less complex. We are dealing with an information security environment that is changing on a regular basis, and we want to get ahead of the curve and protect it as much as possible. … There’s something we’re facing in the information security world, and that’s stuff all flows downhill – to little cities like Auburn,” Haugan said.
[ SECURITY from page 1 ] “Every single day, every month, and annually the City stops thousands, if not more, viruses from malware and from people trying to get into the system,” Haugan said. And while the City processes 100,000 or more emails every month, it rejects 30,000 of those emails that come either from the bad guys or that enter the system in such a way that they can weaken it. “So we already were doing a lot,” Haugan said. “The folks who built our perimeter security have kept us safe thus far. But they also recognize that we are not experts.” Which is why the City has brought in experts to perform what Haugan called “a hard-wired, deepdive security assessment” to ascertain, well, what the City should be doing that it isn’t. “That’s everything, soup to nuts,” Haugan said of the assessment. Today, the City of Auburn has three different security compliance requirements it has to meet every year, from: 1. The payment card industry (PCI) 2. The Central Justice Information System (CJIS).

Freedom without order is just chaos
Rich Elfers
IN FOCUS
Freedom. What a wonderful power – or is it? I considered that paradox after speaking with one of my Chinese students from Shanghai. I had asked him what had struck him most about being in America. His answer was, “all the freedom we enjoy in this country.” It was such a contrast to his country’s control under “socialist capitalism.” Yes, we have freedom in this country, but like everything carried to an extreme, too much of it can be just as bad as too little of it. Let me illustrate. I showed a segment of an Internet video called, “How to Run a Political Campaign: Campaign Strategy” to my Civics and Government class at Green River College. I showed my students the video because I wanted them to know how it feels to run for public office. I thought having that perspective would make the lectures and discussions about government more realistic and relevant. It had that effect. One of the points the narrator in the video made was that politics is an area where there aren’t a lot of rules for what to do and what not to do. He went on to say that becoming a candidate is not for the faint of heart. The situation can change drastically with one misspoken word, or one decision not carefully thought through. Voters have little patience for a candidate who has not carefully considered why he/she is running and why they believe they

JACQUELINE JOHNSON, a student in the Master’s in Communication: Native Voices program at the University of Washington, received the Honorable Claudia Kauffman Scholarship at a ceremony on campus last Saturday. The scholarship is in recognition of Kauffman’s achievement in becoming the first Native American woman elected to the state Senate. She served the 47th Legislative District. Johnson said this scholarship will help her flourish as a filmmaker and inspire others, especially women. She aspires to document lifestyles through the lens of her community, the Makah Nation, to Johnson Kauffman spread and preserve knowledge. She is researching urban Native youth identity in the Pacific Northwest, and the various definitions of the term “urban Indian.” The scholarship is intended to encourage other Native Americans to follow Kauffman’s example of community service. “This is an honor, and I am hopeful this will inspire Native students to continue to seek higher education at every opportunity,“ Kauffman said. Kauffman, a member of the Nez Perce Tribe of Idaho, has long been dedicated to native youth and education. She serves as chair of the Seattle Indian Services Commission and is vice chair of the Green River College Board of Trustees.

Auburn shines as sustainable community Throughout my summer-long spell working as an intern with Waste Management’s Public Outreach and Education Team, I had the opportunity to meet with solid waste coordinators and staff from municipalities around King County. I found the City of Auburn staff to very proud of its recycling program and extremely encouraging of my education and outreach work in their city. After meeting with city staff, I was ready and motivated to engage with multifamily residents and property managers around recycling education and our services. In conducting outreach, I was surprised to learn how many residents were excited about the household hazardous waste disposal facility in Auburn, where they could drop off their chemicals or fluorescent light bulbs. I also had the opportunity to provide education and outreach at the Auburn International Farmers Market. The event coordinator was over-the-top helpful, and residents were very appreciative that I was there to provide tips on recycling. I hope that the City of Auburn and Waste Management continue to build a more sustainable community for years to come. – Adam Ellner, Waste Management intern

Rehab area greatly appreciated It was interesting to read about the update to the MultiCare Auburn Medical Center’s emergency area. I would like to know what happened to the hospital’s third floor rehab area? Went to visit there recently and it was “gone.” This was the most wonderful rehab area. Staff and doctors were magnificent. Small, but extremely efficient. After a prolonged stay in the hospital for double pneumonia, I was privileged to be accepted there for rehab, and if it wasn’t for their care – and in their words, “working my butt off six days a week” – I would probably be in a nursing home. I cannot speak more highly of them. I was 79 years old at the
time, and there were those who wanted to give up on me. My daughter and the rehab prevailed. I am now 82 and back to my old self, going strong. – Rue-Ann Larson
Please budget for ordinary people We hear the same complaints around Auburn. The person who has a good job is often struggling to pay his utility bills. This is not someone who has seven kids and a wife who are taking showers twice a day. He’s not the guy who’s watering a half-acre of grass. He doesn’t have a swimming pool and he doesn’t have a leak in front of his house that’s flooding the street. He’s part of a family who uses an average amount of water each month. When he talks to his friends who have homes in other states, no one ever mentions high water bills. They never complain about any of their utility bills. Do people in Auburn have a right to complain about their water bills? You bet they do. A small group of people in Auburn have come with a solution to high water bills. Instead of putting about $30,000 a year into artwork on streets that people don’t have the time or even the inclination to look [ more LETTERS page 6 ]

[ ELFERS from page 5 ] are the right person for the job. There is Donald Trump, though, who seems to defy this adage. Trump has been blunt, honest, and politically incorrect, stating his true feelings about issues. As a result, early Republican voters have found his freedom to speak as he pleases refreshing. This seems to be counterintuitive – to do the opposite of what is culturally and politically acceptable, and to be rewarded with soaring poll results and money filling Trump’s campaign coffers. Trump’s sense of freedom has turned controlling cultural rules on their head, but has it made America a better nation, or one dragged back into historical stereotypes about race, women, and immigration? Is freedom a blessing or a curse in these cases?
While freedom is part of who we are, freedom also allowed a mentally ill person to walk into a classroom at Umpqua Community College and shoot and kill eight students and a teacher for no reason, and then kill himself. Freedom presents its hazards, too. It forces the media to reconsider if the names of shooters should be published to prevent the fame and attention that the shooter attained from setting a negative example to others who crave notoriety. Freedom by itself can be very destructive. It needs to be melded with self-control, concern for others, and a sense of balance and perspective. Of and by itself, it, like any virtue, can turn ugly very quickly. To prevent just such a thing from happening was the goal of the Found-

If you take away expensive travel for the mayor and council, and the useless waste of money on communication systems, private council office space and perks for elected officials, it should be possible to put together a funding package that will maintain all of Auburn’s water systems. Why can’t people we put in office put together a budget that just benefits ordinary people like us? The people we talk to believe our elected officials should
be putting at least $40,000 a year into a utility that will help subsidize our high water bills. We all appreciate art, music and culture, but enough is enough.

The People’s Republic of China overemphasizes control and the result is corruption and poverty. But we in America need to think about the negatives of liberty as well as its positives as we live our lives. Any virtue becomes evil without limits. Freedom without restraint can destroy us.

Riedel’s letters to the editor (Auburn Reporter, Oct. 2 and 16, respectively) that a bunch of scary, homeless firefighters were intimidating motorists for money in order to go buy cheap booze or meth. Of course, the truth is that they were volunteering their time to solicit charitable donations. Were Galland and Riedel somehow robbed of their spare change? Amazingly, Riedel even found a correlation between the firefighters’ activities and perceived “violations� by Secretary of State Clinton and President Obama. I wonder what Mr. Riedel knows about any alleged
lawbreaking by Secretary Clinton that eight investigations, to date, have not revealed. I also wonder how he feels about the fact that President Obama’s “extraconstitutional� actions (read: executive orders) number less than each of the totals signed by his two predecessors, and number, in fact, within a very modest range compared to most presidents of the last hundred years.

Thomson said many homeless are mentally ill and do not want to live in homes. “The City of Pacific doesn’t have the resources to deal with those problems,� he said.

The latter project, which was budgeted at $12.4 million, will widen the street – a mile-and-ahalf, two-lane road heavily used by 18-wheelers – to three lanes, with a center turn lane. While the budget is limited, Steiger said he would work toward improvements on a section of Milwaukee Boulevard if reelected.

Retirement in Reverse: Better read this if you are 62 or older and still making mortgage payments. More than 1 million seniors have taken advantage of this “retirement secret.” Americans are living longer. Home values are up. And for many senior citizens, their home is their single biggest asset, often accounting for more than 50% of their net worth. With the cost of basic necessities such as food on the rise, it’s no wonder why more and more seniors are using HECM reverse mortgages to turn their home equity into extra cash for retirement. However, there are still millions of homeowners who could benefit from this FHA-insured loan but may simply not be aware of this “retirement secret,” notes Former U.S. Senator Fred Thompson. “You know, some people have told me that reverse mortgages sound too good to be true. You get cash out of your home, no monthly payments, and you still own your home,” says Senator Thompson. NO MONTHLY MORTGAGE PAYMENTS?* EXTRA CASH? It’s true, no monthly mortgage payments are required with a reverse mortgage; the homeowners only have to pay for maintenance, property taxes, homeowner’s insurance and, if required, their HOA fees. In fact, reverse mortgages took hold when president Ronald Reagan signed the FHA mortgage bill into law over 25 years ago to help senior citizens remain
in their homes. “They’re simply an effective way for folks 62 and older to get the cash they need to enjoy their retirement,” notes Thompson. FACT: In 1988 Pres- Although today’s HECM ident Reagan signed reverse mortgages have the FHA Reversebeen greatly improved Mortgage Bill. to provide greater protection for homeowners, there are still a lot of misconceptions. For example, many people mistakenly believe the home must be paid off in full in order to qualify for a reverse mortgage, which is not the case. One key benefit of a reverse mortgage is that it automatically pays off your existing mortgage, which frees up cash flow, a huge blessing for those on a fixed income. Unfortunately, many homeowners who could benefit from a reverse mortgage don’t even bother to get more

information due to rumors they’ve heard. That’s a shame because reverse mortgages are helping many seniors live a better life. A recent survey by American Advisors Group (AAG), the nation’s number one reverse mortgage lender, found that 97% of their clients were satisfied with their reverse mortgages. If you’re a homeowner age 62 or older, you owe it to yourself to learn more. You may be pleasantly surprised by what you discover.

*If you qualify and your loan is approved, a HECM Reverse Mortgage must pay off your existing mortgage(s). With a HECM Reverse Mortgage, no monthly mortgage payment is required. Borrowers are responsible for paying property taxes and homeowner’s insurance (which may be substantial). We do not establish an escrow account for disbursements of these payments. Borrowers must also occupy home as primary residence and pay for ongoing maintenance; otherwise the loan becomes due and payable. The loan must be paid off when the last borrower, or eligible non-borrowing surviving spouse, dies, sells the home, permanently moves out, or does not comply with the loan terms.

The effort is also looking at ways to activate and enhance connected properties, such as Plaza Park, and public parking lots. “We’re looking at a re-imagining of Main Street itself. How can we freshen up the right of way along Main Street and a couple of the adjacent, publicly owned spaces … and position it to help make Auburn a thriving place that we know it can be,” said Brice Maryman, project manager and a landscape architect with Seattle’s MIG SvR Design. Maryman, his project advisory team and City staff were on hand at an Oct. 14 open house in the City Hall lobby to gather input from residents and business owners. Feedback has also been drawn from experts and key stakeholders on Auburn’s downtown, including customers, even public works, police,
fire and public safety voices. More opportunities are planned to gather public input, project leaders said. The team is pitching two perspectives for sidewalk, curb and open space designs, both thematically tied to Auburn’s rich history. They also are entertaining and testing new ideas in hopes of arriving at a communitybacked and city-funded preferred plan by the end of the year. One option explores Auburn’s railroad history, a plan that features curbless streets with mixing zones, inviting parklets and large trees. The other option is influenced by the meandering rivers that flowed through the valley, including a channel of the Green River that once braided across Main Street near B Street Northeast. The proposal emphasizes organic forms, such as benches of overblown river rocks, more green spaces and fewer big trees. “Both of them have really com-

The intensive training offered sessions on public speaking, testifying, targeting your message, working with the media and seeking elected office. Mosby has run a successful CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) program, a farm stand and community outreach. She also has worked with local chefs through her family farm in Auburn for years. pelling ideas that we are playing with,” Maryman added. “We’re really keen on what the public has to say and how they respond to them.” Once the alternatives proposals lead to a preferred one, and the plan is officially approved, project and City staff can begin the funding cycle next year. The project will pursue grant opportunities. “What people are seeing is the City is willing to invest to help make the downtown environment more engaging, more successful,” said Lauren Flemister, City senior planner of urban design. “The mayor and the City Council are real supportive. We’re excited.” Maryman has seen a similar project succeed elsewhere, including his team’s recent completion of Bell Street Park in downtown Seattle “It’s all about changing the narrative of downtown Auburn,” Maryman said.

[ SCHOOLS from page 1 ] enrolled in Running Start, does not attend classes in ASD all day. There used to be a greater difference between the two counts, but all ASD kindergarten students, with the exception of some at Lakeland Hills Elementary, attend class for an entire school day. Blansfield said growth was stable throughout the district. “There was no dramatic, explosive growth,” she said. “It was pretty steady and predicted.” There are provisions in ASD’s contract with the Auburn Education Association to maintain class sizes at certain levels. Because of that, the district might need to hire more teachers. Blansfield said the district might have to do that for another reason, as well. “I think what will happen is as the state is reducing class size … that has an impact on space in our elementary schools,” she said, adding that ASD officials might look into building two new elementary schools in the future. “As a district, we put together an ad hoc committee last year, given state-required changes in class size.” Blansfield expects enrollment growth to continue. She said district officials use a variety of data, including birth rates in King and Pierce coun-
ties during the last 13 years, to project enrollment five years into the future. For the 202021 school year, Blansfield said district officials expect more than 16,500 students.
About Blansfield Blansfield succeeded deputy superintendent Mike Newman, who retired in June. She previously was the district’s executive director of career and college readiness. This is her second tenure within ASD. Blansfield was part of the original staff when Auburn Riverside High School opened in 1995 and taught business and marketing classes there until she was hired as a program supervisor at the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction in August 2001. Three years later, Blansfield returned to the district as its director of secondary student learning. “A lot of my experiences as a program manager kind of set that foundation for me,” she said. “It was an incredible asset coming into this role.” Blansfield earned her bachelor’s degree in education in 1992 from Eastern Washington University, but she said she remained interested in business because that was her original major before she switched as a junior. She also acquired her superintendent credential from Seattle University.

Kershaw retires from Auburn Symphony Orchestra FOR THE REPORTER
Stewart Kershaw, music director and conductor of the Auburn Symphony Orchestra, has announced his retirement, effective immediately. Citing personal reasons, Kershaw decided to retire rather than continue through the 2016-17 season as previously planned. Maestro Kershaw began the Auburn Symphony while he was music director and conductor of the orchestra at Pacific Northwest Ballet in Seattle. He had created the PNB orchestra, acclaimed as one of the best ballet orchestras in America, and in 1997 with the Auburn Symphony, he fulfilled his dream of finding a venue for those talented professional musicians to play from the symphonic repertoire on stage at the Auburn Performing
Arts Center. After his retirement from PNB in 2009, Kershaw remained as conductor of the Auburn Symphony Orchestra. His creative programming, encyclopedic knowledge of composers and music, and a commanding and nuanced conducting
technique, brought a level of quality and brilliance to the Auburn Symphony concerts under his baton. Longtime board member Nancy Colson summed up the sentiments of the symphony board: “Stewart has been the face of the Auburn Sym-
phony for nearly 20 years. He brought us a great orchestra and deepened appreciation of classical music in Auburn and the Puget Sound community. We are grateful for the legacy he created and wish him the very best.” The ASO season will con-
tinue as planned with guest conductors for the remaining concerts. The symphony board will immediately begin a search for Kershaw’s replacement. The board plans to honor Kershaw for his contribution to the community at a future event.

...Pampered Pets
Halloween hints for pet owners BY KATHY LANG Family Dog Training Center
Halloween is right around the corner. What’s a dog – or a cat – to do? From a dog’s perspective, walking the neighborhood after dark can be downright scary. There are lots of strange-looking, short creatures running down the sidewalk. The creatures smell and sound like humans, but they certainly don’t look like normal children and adults. Dogs and cats who remain home as the trick-ortreaters arrive are exposed to the same sights, sounds
and smells as those out on the street. In some ways, it’s even more frightening since these aliens are invading the pet’s territory with constant doorbells, door knocks and “trick or treats!� What’s a concerned pet parent to do? Even if your dog has a rock-solid temperament and nothing bothers him, it’s still best to leave him at home on Halloween evening. You never know when something truly unusual might happen resulting in a long-term behavior issue for your pet. Some frightened dogs will try to escape; they can slip out of
the collar or pull the leash out of your hand. Others will lunge and bite. Puppies and older dogs with fear issues should definitely stay home. Halloween is not the time to socialize or work through behavior problems. At home, it’s best to confine your dogs and cats so they cannot slip out the door. Pets who have a difficult time coping with lots of noise and activity should be exercised, fed and put to bed before the first door knock. A television or radio can keep your pet company and block out upsetting sounds. If you do decide to leave

your dog or cat loose in the house, it’s best to have him wear a leash and stay back from the doorway. If he’s reliably obedience-trained, put him on a down stay in the foyer, or have a family member hold his leash each time the doorbell rings. If your dog will honor a babygate, that’s another way to keep him secure. For added safety, be sure your pet is microchipped and wears a current ID tag attached to his collar or harness. For especially anxious pets, talk with your veterinarian about medications that can help. And always remember to keep the pets away from the candy.

Focused Ravens remain perfect BY CHRIS CHANCELLOR cchancellor@auburn-reporter.com
Focus. That was a buzzword for Auburn Riverside coach Chris Leverenz after the Ravens remained undefeated with a 24-26, 25-20, 29-27, 25-20 win Monday night in a South Puget Sound League 3A volleyball match against Auburn Mountainview. With only three matches remaining in the regular season – and just one against a team with a winning record – the Ravens (11-0 overall, 11-0 league) appear poised to enter the postseason undefeated. But Leverenz, who guided Auburn Riverside to its first state championship in program history last year, said her players are not looking ahead. “We try and not focus on those things,” she said. “We try and say we’re a different team. We’re worried about

Izzy Creighton scored three goals as Auburn Riverside won its sixth consecutive match with a 6-0 victory Oct. 15 against Auburn in a South Puget Sound League 3A girls soccer match. Natalie Lake also contributed a pair of goals for the Ravens (10-2-0 overall, 9-1-0 league). Goalkeepers Katelyn Brown and Natalie Raum combined for the shutout. The Trojans (1-11-0, 1-9-0) earned their first win of the season, 1-0, in their previous match Oct. 13 against Lakes.
league, then we’re worried about district and then we’re worried about the state tournament. We just take it as it comes.” That concentration seemed apparent toward the end of the third game, which the Lions (10-2, 9-2) led most of the way. Auburn Mountainview twice had one-point advantages – 26-25 and 27-26 – and needed just another score to close out the game. But the Ravens rallied to take a 28-27 advantage and closed it out on a bad return. “I think that was the biggest game,” Leverenz said. “That’s why I was holding my breath. If we lose this one, it could’ve changed the whole match.” Coach Telia Peterson said those late-game breakdowns are correctable. “I think it’s more just mental,” she said. “Right at the end, fighting and

The Lions (5-2 overall, 3-2 league) scored once during the third quarter when Ki’Jan Weisinger broke several tackles en route to a 60-yard touchdown reception from Jensen. But that was sandwiched between a pair of touchdown runs by Peninsula junior Kenny Easton, who finished with 185 yards on 41 carries. “Those backs are big and their linemen are big,� Gervais said. “I think they thought they could run the ball on us. They were able to grind it out and grind it out and grind it out. They were able to stick to their game plan.� Easton’s scores left Auburn Mountainview with a 27-20 deficit entering the fourth quarter.

It was a role reversal of sorts for Auburn Mountainview. One week after a dramatic come-from-behind win against Lakes, the Lions could not sustain their early success last Friday night during a 34-20 loss at Peninsula in a South Puget Sound League 3A contest. Auburn Mountainview, which overcame a trio of three touchdown deficits during the previous week, could not build on a 13-0 lead in the second quarter against the Seahawks. “I think we got a little bit nervous,� Auburn Mountainview coach Jared Gervais said. “I think we did a little of what Lakes did last week. Things got off to a really good start. Then things started not going great and I think we got a little nervous; a little antsy. “We started taking too many shots offensively and not getting first downs like we should be. It just kind of snowballed on us and we just couldn’t get it back under control all game long.� After senior quarterback Gresch Jensen, who completed 23 of 46 passes for 383 yards, two touchdowns and three intercep-

www.auburn-reporter.com [ VOLLEYBALL from page 17 ] wanting every point. We can always simulate that in practice.” The Lions also lost in four games Sept. 24 against Auburn Riverside. But both coaches felt Auburn Mountainview played better in the rematch. “I think overall we played well,” Peterson said. “We played competitively. I think if we continue to play at a high level like that, it will be a great thing for us in the district tournament in a few weeks.” Leverenz, whose team will travel to the Nov. 6-7 league tournament at Auburn Mountainview, said she looks forward to again competing against the Lions. “What a great match,” she said. “We always have that sort of crosstown rival with Mountainview. They give us things that we haven’t seen all year – some big hitters in Kiley Lewis and Ali Davenport. Their setter does a great job of mixing up the ball and they play great defense.” Ravens junior outside hitter Kaytlyn Heaslip, who had 13 digs and two aces, also felt
[ FOOTBALL from page 18 ] Auburn Mountainview had one more possession, but Jensen’s pass on fourthand-2 at Peninsula’s 42-yard line fell incomplete and the Seahawks were able to run out the clock. Gervais said it is a good lesson for his team about preparation as they head toward the playoffs. The Lions still can secure second place in SPSL 3A if they win their final two regular-season games. Sumner (7-0, 5-0) clinched the league championship during Friday’s win against Lakes. The top four teams in the league qualify for the playoffs, which begin during the first week of November. “Our goal is the playoffs,” Gervais said. “Like I told them, ‘Nothing’s changed.’ Everything that we want to do moving forward is still able to be done.”

the contingent of raucous crowds from both schools played a role in two of the four games requiring more than 25 points to win. “It was awesome,” she said. “I loved the crowds. I think it really brings up the momentum of the game.” Sophomore outside hitter Calley Heilborn, who had 11 kills, 10 digs and 1 1/2 blocks, shared similar sentiments. “It was so fun with all of the crowds cheering,” she said. “It was so hectic and so much fun.” Auburn Riverside navigated that environment with a youthful roster. The Ravens only have three seniors. But two of them – middle hitter Kasey Holand, who had 12 kills, 11 digs and two blocks, and outside hitter Kiana Drumheller – made significant impacts. Drumheller finished with 19 kills, 11 digs and two aces. “I think Kasey and Kiana stepped up as always and lead this team really well,” Leverenz said. “Kaytlyn Heaslip is another one. They have been there and done it.” And focused. It starts with a rivalry game against Auburn (2-5, 2-3). Kickoff is 7 p.m. Friday at Auburn Memorial. “That’s going to be a huge battle for both teams,” Gervais said. “City bragging rights on the line and it’s a big deal for these kids.”
Elsewhere Malik Williams scored three touchdowns in Auburn’s 37-20 South Puget Sound League 3A loss to Bonney Lake on Oct. 15 at Auburn Memorial Stadium. The Panthers improved to 3-2 in league, 4-3 overall, while the Trojans dropped to 2-3 and 2-5. Williams scored on a 45-yard run and hauled in TD passes of 20 and 55 yards from Justin Ioimo. Ethan Koepke ran for three TDs and Marcus Hamilton ran for two more for Bonney Lake.

Auburn’s Brian Thornquist was named the South Puget Sound League 3A’s singles player of the year. Thornquist won the league singles tournament with a 6-3, 6-1 victory against Sumner’s Zylan Jacobson. He now advances to the Oct. 30 district tournament. RACHEL CIAMPI, Auburn Reporter
