GV Lake Creston grad works with Ebola patients, wins awards microcystins return to safe level

By BAILEY POOLMAN

CNA staff reporter

OMAHA, Neb. — Meagan Freml, MSN, RN, CCRN, works as a nurse, an ordinary job at an ordinary hospital in an ordinary town in the Midwest. But, Freml is anything but ordinary.

Freml, formerly of Creston, was part of the team that cared for Ebola patients after it hit the United States, and was a recipient of two awards for her work.

“I was kind of an accident-prone kid, and I remember after one particular accident a nurse being in Dr. Mansour’s office with me, and she was so wonderful,” Freml said. “I was so concerned that my shorts were ruined. She recognized this was more distressing than anything for me, and calmed my fears over something as small as shorts. I chose a career based on my ability to get to know people. I want to be the person who can fix the complex problems while recognizing there is a person that needs treated as well.”

Ebola But, things changed when she got the call her team was being activated to care for an Ebola patient.

“My heart skipped a few beats, and I thought, ‘This is it. This is what we have been training for. Here we go,’” Freml said. “I then picked up the phone to call my parents so they knew we were activating. I think it is safe to say they were concerned.”

After receiving a ‘Just be careful’ from her mother, Freml began work. Freml, a staff nurse in the surgical intensive care unit at Nebraska Medicine, formerly known as The Nebraska Medical Center, in Omaha, and part-time in the post-anesthesia care unit in the recovery room at

Meagan Freml talks with two coworkers during work at Nebraska Medicine in Omaha.

Midwest Surgical Hospital in Omaha, was on call 24/7 with the bio-containment unit.

“The first days are chaotic in the best way,” Freml said. “The team is all together for the first time in awhile, and we are excited. ... There are moments in your career that you will never forget — certain patients, your first code — and for me, another was the day I got in the gear and walked down to care for our first patient for the first time.”

Work Freml was strictly part of the bio-containment unit, rather than with her teams in the surgical intensive care unit and recovery room. At this point she no longer worked with unstable surgical patients, liver transplant patients or trauma victims. She cared for patients diagnosed with Ebola.

“A proud moment I can think of was the day we were able to release our first patient,” Freml said.

“National news crews were posted outside the hospital, and in our press conference we came out to be introduced

WHAT IS EBOLA? Ebola is a disease in humans and primates caused by an ebolavirus.

It causes symptoms such as fever and muscle aches between two days and three weeks, before more severe symptoms like vomiting occur. Some people by this point begin bleeding both internally and externally.

It is spread through contact with bodily fluids of the infected, and has an average death rate of 50 percent.

The index case of Ebola was traced to a toddler in Guinea, Africa, in December 2013. It wasn’t until March 2013

These ladies are all smiles.

Furry friend:

South Carolina’s Confederate flag comes down today COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — A crowd of thousands gathered Friday among security officers and news crews to witness the historic removal of the Confederate flag from the South Carolina Statehouse grounds — a day many in the state thought would never come.

The state planned a simple, short ceremony at 10 a.m. to quickly and quietly remove the rebel banner, which was surrounded in its final hours by ropes and

barricades.

Authorities said a Highway Patrol honor guard would take down the flag but didn’t give other details.

Outside the Capitol, people who supported removing the flag — many chanting “take it down” — vastly outnumbered those who were upset about the move.

bacterial blooms can form in warm, slow-moving waters that are rich in nutrients. They most often occur in late summer or early fall.

Both humans and animals can get microcystin poisoning from exposure to contaminated water, either by intentionally or accidentally swallowing water, by having direct skin contact (as when swimming, wading or showering) or by breathing airborne droplets containing microcystins during boating or waterskiing.

Microcystin poisoning cannot be spread from one person to another, nor from an animal to a person.

that World Health Organization (WHO) officials declared their concern with the spreading disease. United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention officials sent a small team to help WHO medical staff, and several months later they pulled Peace Corps volunteers from the infected areas in Africa.

The first known case in the United States hit in August 2013, when a doctor on a missions trip to Africa was medically evacuated and treated at Emory Medical Center in Atlanta, Ga.

It’s safe to swim again at Green Valley Lake near Creston.

Iowa Department of Natural Resources reported this morning that microcystins levels have dropped below warning level at Green Valley Lake.

However, levels may again rise throughout the late summer and fall. Signs will be posted when tests exceed safe levels. (Posting will only occur between Memorial Day and Labor Day).

The News Advertiser will also post information when levels are high.

Joyce, daughter of Katherine D. Raymo and Charles R. Allen, was born Sept. 21, 1942, in Chillicothe, Mo. Joyce graduated from Weston, Mo., High School.

On July 10, 1961, Joyce married David Estes Sr. in Platte City, Mo. Joyce was a homemaker, and together with her husband David, they managed the Union County Home from 1981 to 1988. David died July 13, 1994, when they lived in Diagonal, Iowa.

about it,” said Ronald D. Barton, 52, a pastor who also was at the ceremony in 2000, when the flag was moved from its place flying atop the Capitol dome to its current flagpole.

After the flag’s removal, a special van used to transport historical artifacts will take it to the Confederate Relic Room and Military Museum, about a mile away.

There, it eventually will be housed in a multimillion-dollar shrine lawmakers promised to build as part of a compromise to get the bill ordering the flag’s removal through the House.

According to the legislation Republican Gov. Nikki Haley signed Thursday, the flagpole also will be taken down, but no time frame has been announced for that.

Haley walked out on the Capitol steps to take a look at the scene and to talk to officers ahead of the ceremony.

She spent just over five minutes looking over the crowd, which quickly turned and began snapping pictures.

Haley did not answer questions about the upcoming ceremony, but earlier Friday on NBC’s “Today” show, she said: “No one should ever drive by the

Statehouse and feel pain.

No one should ever drive by the Statehouse and feel like they don’t belong.”

South Carolina’s leaders first flew the battle flag over the Statehouse dome in 1961 to mark the 100th anniversary of the Civil War. It remained there to represent official opposition to the civil rights movement.

Decades later, mass protests against the flag by those who said it was a symbol of racism and white supremacy led to a compromise in 2000 with lawmakers who insisted that it symbolized Southern heritage and states’ rights.

The two sides came to an agreement to move the flag from the dome to a 30-foot pole next to a Confederate monument in front of the Statehouse.

In 2000, the crowd was vastly larger than the one gathered Friday. Thousands of people showed up for the flag’s transfer.

Flag supporters shouted, “Off the dome and in your face!” at protesters who wanted the flag gone, a line of police in special gear separating the two sides.

A pair of Citadel cadets, one white and one black, lowered the flag from the dome as a dozen Confederate re-enactors marched to the brand new flagpole and raised the rebel banner.

as being the team that was responsible for his cure. I think that was the first day I realized this wasn’t just another day at work. We had an international audience and a family who got to hug their loved one. It was incredibly rewarding.”

Freml, 31, attended St. Malachy School in Creston before graduating from Creston High School in 2002 and continuing her education in the medical field.

“We were able to send people home to their families, but we are also able to teach other medical centers worldwide what we are doing and how we are doing it,” Freml said.

“We work closely with the Centers for Disease Control, and aim at preparing the U.S. for any type of illness that could come our way.”

Freml has been able to prepare her country through countless years of education. She attended University of Iowa in Iowa City and earned bachelor’s degrees in 2007 in psychology and biology.

After UI, she attended College of Saint Mary in Omaha, where she graduated in 2009 with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, and in 2015 with a Master of Science in Nursing.

Freml begins a doctoral program in nurse anesthesia at Clarkson College in Omaha in August.

bio-containment unit with more than 20 other staff members at Nebraska Medicine, Freml and her coworkers were awarded as Time magazine 2014 Person of the Year.

A week later, they were awarded the 2014 Midlanders of the Year by Omaha World-Herald.

“When I got the email about Time magazine, I cried,” Freml said. “It was such an emotional time, such a fulfilling time. Not to mention, it is not everyday you get to write that you are one of Time magazine’s people of the year on your resume.”

For Freml, it was a sense of accomplishment working with such a misunderstood disease with a close-knit team of individ-

uals all geared for the same outcome: saving lives.

“Nursing can be a thankless job sometimes, not that we need to be told good job or thank you everyday,” Freml said. “But, when you do hear thank you, or get an acknowledgment of this magnitude, it means your work is not going unnoticed.”

Nebraska Medicine also received a multi-million dollar grant in conjunction with Emory Medical Center in Atlanta, Ga., and Bellevue Hospital in New York City, N.Y., to serve as one of three national training centers for infectious diseases.

The daughter of Tom and Karin Freml, and the sister of Jared Freml, CHS class of 1998, and Hilaree

Freml, CHS class of 2000, Freml said her family inspired her to become what she is today.

“I am blessed to have been raised by parents who taught us to work hard and chase our dreams. They are the best examples of what hard work looks like,” Freml said. “Ebola seems to be something we did as a stepping stone. ... Our team has helped and will continue to help hundreds of medical centers both nationally and internationally train in emergency preparedness.

We know we are a mobile society, and there are any number of infectious diseases that can walk into our emergency departments. Now, we just have to be prepared for it, and we will help.”

The case for remembering Dear Heloise: When I travel, I take my own pillow for comfort. I have a very colorful print PILLOWCASE to put on it so that it doesn’t blend in with the hotel’s pillows. It’s easy to see and hard to leave! — A Reader, via email This is one of my favorite travel hints. If David and I are on a road trip, I do like to take my own pillow, too.

If flying, I have two of my “faux silk” purple king-size pillowcases in my luggage.

May sound silly to some, but I love them! For the ladies, you won’t wake up with crinkles in your face when you sleep on one of these! Can’t miss the purple pillow on the bed when it’s checkout time. — Heloise PAINT HINTS Dear Heloise: When we moved into our house, we painted. I kept the paintchip card and placed it with other important files for the house. I can take it with me if I need more paint. Or, when we move, I’ll pass it on to the new owners.

I kept small cans of each color. We have a young, very active boy, and there usually is a need for a touch-up.

Hints from Heloise Whether it is marks on the wall, a chair scrape in the kitchen or a nick on a corner, now I simply grab the can I need. — Ari O., Athens, Ga. CONTACT INFORMATION Dear Heloise: I have all of my contacts’ information entered in my cellphone.

However, I always keep all of the information in a separate address book. That way, if something happens to my cellphone, I won’t lose all of the information and contacts.

Use an old toothbrush or dry scrub brush. Two, treat the stains with a prewash stain spray or stain stick. None in the house? Simply use fullstrength liquid laundry detergent on the spot. Gently rub the cleaning agent in with the brush and let sit at least 30 minutes. Three, pop into the washing machine (this is called “work” time) with cold water. Four, let the shoes dry naturally.

Horoscope Saturday, July 11, 2015 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Financial matters might not unfold the way you would wish today, so just be patient with whatever happens. You might feel cash-strapped, especially if you want to have fun.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Don’t expect too much from others today, because people’s social skills are off. Everyone feels a bit withdrawn and antisocial, including you.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Give in to your impulse to be reclusive today. Find someplace pleasant where you can hide and just be by yourself.

If someone ignores you, don’t take it personally.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) This is a poor day to discuss financial matters, especially with female acquaintances. People are not receptive; furthermore, they will be tightfisted.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) This is not the day to ask authority figures for help, approval or permission. There is a negative vibe out there today; plus people are wrapped up in themselves.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept.

22) Travel plans that were once exciting now appear to be beyond your reach. Don’t worry, this is a temporary setback. Keep your hopes up.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) This is not the day for important discussions about how to share or divide something, especially an inheritance or an important decision about shared property. Postpone these discussions for another day.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) You have to compromise with others today and go more than halfway. And it will be easy. It seems like everyone is in a funk.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Work on your own today, and don’t expect too much from others, especially co-workers. Relations with people from other countries and different backgrounds could be strained.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You might be disappointed in your fair share of something today. That’s because this is a poor day to decide how to share something. Children will be an increased responsibility.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb.

18) Family discussions are depressing and limiting today, which probably will discourage you. But know this: This is just a temporary influence. Keep the faith.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Don’t let negative thinking get you down. It affects everyone today, so just face it with a smile and hope for the best.

Attitude is everything. We are always creating our own world in our mind (“I’m pretty on another one”).

YOU BORN TODAY You are

knowledgeable and fascinated by many aspects of the world.

You’re an excellent team player, and you have opinions on practically everything. Good news! This is a year of accumulation, and perhaps one of the most powerful years of your life. You will reap what you have sown, because it’s a time of fruition and a good time to buy and sell.

HEALTH

5 things everyone needs to know about vitamin B12 deficiency (BPT) — It’s common knowledge that vitamins are important to a person’s overall health, but few realize that a deficiency in some vitamins can cause serious medical problems.

For example, B12 deficiency is often overlooked or misunderstood because its symptoms - including fatigue, dizziness and numbness in hands or feet - can be easily mistaken for other conditions. However, the long-term effects of B12 deficiency can be much more wide-reaching and profound than most people think.

In fact, an estimated 48 million adults may have insufficient B12 levels, and two in five of those over the age of 60 may be low in B12. Early detection and management of a B12 deficiency is crucial because if left untreated, it can progress and lead to permanent, irreversible nerve damage, serious neurological problems and even dementia.

“Most people - even those who are at highest risk, like the elderly and folks with gastrointestinal

problems - aren’t aware of the detrimental effects that a deficiency in vitamin B12 can have on their overall health,” says Ralph Green, M.D., Ph.D., FRCPath, a noted authority on vitamin B12. “I equate what is reported about the number of people with problems caused by B12 deficiency to the tip of an iceberg. The bigger unknown is what’s hidden under the water, and the damage of what developing B12 deficiency can do.”

Following are five key things everyone should

know about B12 deficiency: 1. B12 deficiency can lead to serious health issues.

Many people associate vitamin B12 with energy production and alertness, but it’s also critical to keeping the body’s nerve and blood cells healthy.

Without the proper absorption of B12, deficiency of this vitamin can occur and a person’s central nervous system’s function can suffer, and that can have serious mental and physical health ramifications, including irreversible damage to nerve cells, memory loss, depres-

sion or even dementia.

2. People over 60 are at the highest risk.

As many 25 million people age 60 and older may have a B12 deficiency. As people age, the lining of the stomach can become thinner and less efficient at processing nutrients in food. As a result, B12 absorption can be significantly impaired.

So it’s important that people over the age of 60 have their B12 levels checked.

Ensuring the proper level may help to keep the mind sharp.

3. Common GI conditions

can increase risk.

People with gastrointestinal illnesses, such as celiac and Crohn’s disease, are at greater risk for developing a B12 deficit because the vitamin cannot be properly absorbed from food and typical dietary supplements.

In fact, two in five of people with celiac disease, and one in five with Crohn’s Disease may not be getting enough B12.

4. Certain medications can impact B12 absorption.

Researchers have found that patients who took acid reducers, called proton pump inhibitors, for more than two years were 65 percent more likely to have a vitamin B12 deficiency. In addition, people with diabetes who take the commonly prescribed treatment metformin are more than twice as likely to develop a deficiency.

5. A simple blood test can measure your vitamin B12 levels.

People should proactively ask to have their B12 levels checked as part of their regular healthcare checkup, particularly if they are

over the age of 60 or have a GI-related disorder. The symptoms of a B12 deficiency may be non-specific and can include: *Weakness and fatigue, light-headedness and dizziness *Palpitations, rapid heartbeat, and shortness of breath *A sore tongue that has a red, beefy appearance or may be completely smooth *Nausea or poor appetite, weight loss *Diarrhea *Yellowish tinge to the skin and eyes *Numbness and tingling in the hands and feet *Difficulty walking *Memory loss *Depression In cases where the absorption of B12 through diet or oral supplements is an issue, there are several treatment options, including monthly injections. A new oral treatment recently became available that utilizes special technology to ensure the body gets the B12 it needs by taking a pill once a day-without the need for injections.

The thrill is back (sort of) The father of psychoanalysis Sigmund Freud once asked, “What does a woman want?” The pioneering sex researcher Alfred Kinsey puzzled over women’s desires. Well, lately, if online bloggers are to be believed, one possible answer to both is: “A version of men’s little blue pill to help ease sexual dysfunction!”

There are no medications approved by the Food and Drug Administration to relieve hypoactive sexual desire disorder in women.

HSDD is defined as a deficiency or absence of sexual fantasies and lack of sexual desire that triggers distress or relationship problems.

Yet it affects about 33 percent of women, perhaps because of childbirth, emotional or hormonal problems, reactions to medications, medical conditions or procedures. Current treatment consists of a hit-ormiss collection of suggested lifestyle changes (drink less, exercise more, shed extra weight, avoid simple sugars and saturated fats, get enough sleep), treatment of medical or psychiatric issues, hormone therapy and/ or marital counseling.

That may be changing: On its third review of a medication for HSDD called flibanserin, the FDA’s advisory committee recommended approval. It’s not a new drug; it was originally used to treat depression by acting on the brain’s dopamine and serotonin receptors.

How it improves HSDD is unknown. Unfortunately, it’s only 10 percent more effective than placebo. So if it’s ultimately approved, it’s just a baby step in the right direction.

If you have HSDD, don’t wait for flibanserin: Talk

COMBAT OBESITY STARTING IN PRESCHOOL Norman “Chubby” Chaney seemed amusing in the “Our Gang” comedies of the 1930s and ‘40s as an overweight child (he was 3 feet, 11 inches tall and weighed 113 pounds). In part, it was because there just weren’t many. Today nearly 18 percent of kids ages 6-11 are obese, as are 21 percent of those 12-19!

Obesity is common and not funny, especially when it comes to children.

A lot of factors contribute to this epidemic (hormone disruptors in receipts and plastics, changes in your intestinal bacteria due to processed foods, the digital sit-and-stare-at-a-screen revolution, inner-city environments, high fructose corn syrup, sugary drinks).

It can seem hard to keep your child from becoming overweight. But a recent study from Seattle Children’s Hospital might indicate a good place to start: in your preschool.

Researchers found that U.S. preschoolers get only around 48 minutes of active play a day, when they should be getting two hours or more. And this contributes to everything from being overweight to learning and behavior problems. But when preschoolers play ac-

tively indoors (remember duck-duck-goose?) or run around outside for even an hour a day, behavior and learning improve, and so does naptime.

So if your child is in day care: —Help arrange for parent volunteers to come play active games with the kids.

—Set up excursions to local parks where kids can explore and play.

—Provide day care workers with activity-based CDs or videos that will get kids up and moving.

—And suggest using the Cleveland Clinic’s Food Is Knowledge program for pre-K to first grade.

THE DOWNSIDE OF ELECTIVE C-SECTIONS Diva and “The Voice” judge Christina Aguilera scheduled an elective cesarean procedure during her 37th week of pregnancy in 2008, when she gave birth to her first child Max. She’s not alone. Almost 27 percent of all births in the U.S. are C-sections in low-risk situations such as Aguilera’s. (“Low risk” is defined as single births, with babies in a good position, at 37 or more weeks of gestation.)

And although C-sections can be life-saving for women and newborns, doctors are trying to reduce the use of elective C-sections. Two new studies show why.

Besides the risks associated with surgery and anesthesia for both mother and baby (repeated fetal anesthesia exposure is a longterm risk to a baby’s brain

development), a National Vital Statistics Report shows that mothers need transfusions for C-sections at more than three times the rate of vaginal births; intensive-care admissions were almost six times higher for first-time cesarean deliveries; and by far the highest rates of ruptured uterus and unplanned hysterectomy occur with repeat cesarean deliveries.

Plus, a new study from New York University shows that the child may be at increased risk for Type 1 diabetes (up 19 percent), asthma (up 1.6 percent) and obesity (up 3.6 percent) later in life, perhaps because the child doesn’t pass through the vaginal canal, where a newborn picks up important bacteria for a healthy gut biome and immune system. So before scheduling an elective C-section, make sure you talk with your doctor about all of the risks and benefits for you and your child.

SEX AND APPLE’S NEW HEALTHKIT APP Apple recently announced that the update of iOS 9 will allow its HealthKit app — in a new category called “Reproductive” Health — to track your sex life (frequency and what contraceptive you used) on your iPhone or Apple Watch. Women will be able to monitor their menstrual cycle and record info on basal body temperature, cervical mucus quality and spotting.

That’ll make the HealthKit a digital rhythm-method tracker or fertility booster, depending on how you use the info. You’ll also be able to send the info to your doctor or anonymously share it with scientists conducting research studies. Note: The

sex tracker doesn’t work like a pedometer! You put info in AFTER the fact (or act).

Reports have doctors saying it’s not very useful in and of itself; and many on social media echoed that sentiment. One Tweet said: “iOS 9 will include an app to help you track how often you have sex. No, thanks, Apple, I don’t need to be reminded! (Sobs gently).”

But we think it’s one more way to empower YOU. Research shows that a loving, ongoing sex life boosts heart health, eases bladder control problems, reduces stress, increases levels of illness-fighting immunoglobulin A, is associated with generosity and happiness, and makes your RealAge much younger.

Since the HealthKit app also lets you track your weight, physical activity, diet and mood, you can see how changes in those markers seem to correlate with your sexual activity. So we say, tonight tell your honey that you’re doing important health research, and enjoy what you discover!

WATERMELON TO THE RESCUE The World Championship of Watermelon Seed Spitting is held at the Annual Watermelon Thump in Luling, Texas: The world record is 68 feet, 9 1/8 inches!

Clearly, the folks in Luling take their watermelon seriously, but what we’re about to tell you is something even those watermeloners might not be aware of.

Watermelon is a super food. It has about 40 percent more lycopene per cup than tomatoes. Lycopene boosts levels of a hormone called adiponectin that helps you maintain healthy

a blood sugar level, burn fat, cool inflammation, lower LDL (lousy) cholesterol levels and blood pressure, and decrease arterial aging or atherosclerosis. Plus, it encourages cancer cells to die. That’s why lycopene has been associated with reducing the risk for breast, prostate, lung and stomach cancers.

Another good-for-you nutrient found in watermelon is the amino acid L-citrulline. A recent study found that after you work out, citrulline accelerates removal of lactic acid from your body, reducing recovery time and next-day muscle soreness.

Does that mean watermelon can make you run faster or jump higher? Sorry, that seems unlikely.

Another study found that eating it doesn’t enhance athletic performance — although it can help your muscles repair so that you feel more like getting back out there the next day!

So bring slices of watermelon to your child’s next soccer game. And think about juicing up a glass for a thirst-quenching drink after you take a bike ride. Either way, chowing down on watermelon this summer will make you feel better today and tomorrow. *** Mehmet Oz, M.D. is host of “The Dr. Oz Show,” and Mike Roizen, M.D. is Chief Wellness Officer and Chair of Wellness Institute at Cleveland Clinic.

Lange shuts down Nodaway Valley

National Digest

Stabler dies Former Oakland Raiders quarterback Ken Stabler died Wednesday from complications resulting from Stage 4 colon cancer, the team confirmed Thursday. He was 69.

“The Raiders are deeply saddened by the passing of the great Ken Stabler,” owner Mark Davis said in a team release. “He was a cherished member of the Raider family and personified what it means to be a Raider. He wore the silver and black with pride and poise and will continue to live in the hearts of Raider fans everywhere. Our sincerest thoughts and prayers go out to Kenny’s family.”

A native of Foley, Alabama, Stabler threw for 27,938 yards during his 15-year career in the NFL, compiling a 96-49-1 record as a starting quarterback and a win over the Minnesota Vikings in Super Bowl XI. He played for the Raiders from 1970 to 1979, winning the NFL MVP award in 1974 and earning Pro Bowl honors four times.

James agrees LeBron James has agreed to sign a two-year contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers worth the maximum of $46.9 million, sources told ESPN’s Chris Broussard and Brian Windhorst on Thursday.

The second year of the contract is a player option, sources said.

James, who has been on vacation the past week, didn’t talk to any other teams and always intended to re-sign with the Cavs.

This is the first time since 2006 James will resign with a team. The previous two times he was a free agent, he left for another team, going to Miami in 2010 and returning to Cleveland in 2014.

James met with Kevin Love before free agency started and they discussed plans for the upcoming season. Love signed a fiveyear, $113 million deal to stay with the team.

The Cavs announced Thursday that they also had re-signed guard Iman Shumpert, who said last week that he intended to re-sign with the team.

Sources told ESPN.com that deal was for four years and $40 million.

Martinez dominant PITTSBURGH — Now it’s up to the fans.

Carlos Martinez made his case for inclusion on the National League AllStar team by pitching 7 1/3 scoreless innings Thursday night, and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-1 in a matchup between the teams with the best records in the National League.

Martinez (10-3) scattered four hits and had five strikeouts and three walks in improving to 7-1 with a 1.20 ERA in his last 10 starts.

He is one of the five players contending for the NL’s All-Star Final Vote, along with Johnny Cueto, Jeurys Familia, Clayton Kershaw and Troy Tulowitzki. Fan voting ends Friday afternoon, and the game will be played Tuesday at Cincinnati.

LENOX — Third place in the Pride of Iowa Conference came down to Thursday’s tilt between Nodaway Valley and Lenox, with the host Tigers coming out on top, 4-2.

With a win, Nodaway Valley would have forced a three-way tie for third place with Lenox and Southeast Warren. Instead, with Lenox’s win, the Tigers take sole possession of third place at 12-4, while Nodaway Valley finishes in fifth place at 10-6.

“After we lost that game with Afton earlier this season, things didn’t feel right,” Lenox head coach Kurt Stoaks said. “Just had to get things going. I told the guys tonight, after that I thought there was no way we’d end up in third.

They’ve put it together here at the end of the season just when we needed to be doing it, heading into tournaments.”

The two teams cruised through Thursday’s game, taking just an hour and 21 minutes to complete the game, thanks to solid pitching on both sides.

Lenox senior Caleb Lange tossed a one-hitter and struck out nine, while Nodaway Valley pitchers Casey Ladd and Brandon Mangels combined to give up just six hits.

Lange was masterful against the Wolverines, allowing only five baserun-

Titans sweep Panthers for first H-10 crown since ‘04

By SCOTT VICKER

CNA sports editor • svicker@crestonnews.com

COUNCIL BLUFFS — Lewis Central clinched its first Hawkeye 10 Conference baseball title since 2004 with a win over Creston in game one here Thursday, and then won the outright title by sweeping the Panthers in game two of a varsity doubleheader.

The Titans won 12-2 in five innings and then won 10-3 in game two to improve to 16-3 in the Hawkeye 10 Conference with one game left. Harlan finished second at 15-5. Creston, meanwhile finished the Hawkeye 10 season with a mark of 11-9 and will finish, at best, tied for sixth in the conference.

The Panthers were doomed by six errors in game one, as starting pitcher Jaden Driskell gave up just three earned runs in the contest. He struck out five and walked none, hitting one batter and giving up 12 hits.

“They hit the ball well,” Panther head coach Steve Birchard said. “They had 12 hits, sprinkle an error in here and there, giving them extra outs isn’t a good way to do it. Recipe for disaster.”

Dustin Merritt and Kadon Hulett each drove in a run for the Panthers in the game one loss.

Game two saw a better defensive effort from Creston, but the Panthers couldn’t generate enough offense against Lewis Central to compete in the 10-3 loss.

Senior Conner Pals finished with two hits, while Brenden McDowell, Cody Crawford and Tucker Fly-

nn each drove in one run apiece.

“Ran into a good team that hits the ball well,” Birchard said. “We didn’t really hit the ball well today. First game got out of hand because of errors, giving them extra outs.

They’re as advertised. You have to say, they’re the best team we’ve seen in our conference. I think they earned their wins today.”

Caleb Shudak held Creston to just four hits in the opener, while Payton Mehsling and Peter Johnson combined to allow just five hits in the second game.

“The Shudak kid is pretty tough,” Birchard said.

“He wasn’t unhittable. I’d say the difference between all three kids that pitched for them today was, I think they have more offspeed first pitches for strikes, and offspeed pitches in 2-1 counts for strikes. They really did a nice job of that.

“I’d say that was a difference maker, where they got our hitters behind in the count or they caught up when you’re sitting there thinking fastball and they throw a curveball or a changeup for a strike.

Credit them, they did a nice job doing that, being able to control their second pitch.”

Panther pitchers combined to issue just three walks on the day, but the Lewis Central batters made enough contact to negate the control displayed by the Panther pitchers.

“They’ve got a nice hitting club, but then a couple of guys at the bottom of the order were getting hits that are falling in,” Birchard said. “It’s frustrating when Please see PANTHERS, page 10A

But it wasn’t enough to overcome the 4-0 lead the Tigers had built up by the end of the fifth inning.

“I think he (Lange) let up a little bit (in the seventh),” Stoaks said.

“Thought he was through the top three hitters and thought, ‘I can get through this.’ He even said, ‘I think I kind of did that.’ After he walked two, he kind of beared down and got to it.”

Lange gave up one hit to Ladd in the second inning and didn’t allow another hit for the rest of the game.

“He kind of kept us off balance,” Nodaway Valley head coach Dan Jameson said. “It seemed like we had a lot of popups and weak grounders. It kind of seemed like the offspeed stuff was working on us tonight.”

Lenox, meanwhile, struck first without record-

ing a hit. Lange drew a leadoff walk in the second inning, advanced to second on a passed ball and to third on a groundout. He then scored on an Aaron Schmitz RBI groundout.

The Tigers added another run in the fourth inning, as Lange led off with a single and advanced on a Dawson Tullberg single, before moving to third on an error. He scored on a sacrifice fly by Brenden Christensen.

“I said to myself when I walked in, that might be all it takes,” Stoaks said about the early lead. “Because Lange was on. You get a run like that and sometimes that’s all you need in a game like this.”

Tullberg added two insurance runs in the fifth inning, when he roped a two-out double over Beau Tullberg W e i n heimer’s head in left field, scoring Dusten Reed and Lange.

“We did that with two outs and that was pretty big,” Stoaks said. “it wasn’t looking too good when we started out. To get two runs, that was big.”

“We gave up a coupe early and in the fifth we gave up two more,” Jameson said. “They made us pay for it.”

Bergstrom coaches team in GFL2 league

By LARRY PETERSON CNA sports writer • lpeterson@crestonnews.com

Retired Creston/O-M football coach Dick Bergstrom is serving in his fifth season of coaching in Europe, this summer as head coach of the Bielefeld Bulldogs in Bielefeld, Germany.

Bergstrom, who retired in 2010 after 33 years as head coach of the Panthers, began coaching in Germany in Paderborn in 2011, Osnabruck in 2012, back to Paderborn in 2013, then in Nice, France last year before going back to Germany this year.

In Germany there are different levels of leagues — GFL1, GFL2 and divisions 3, 4, 5 and 6.

This year, his Bielefeld team competes in the GLF2 North Division. Bielefeld is a city of 325,000 in north central Germany.

The team started this season at 2-1 before injuries struck the roster. The Bulldogs are now 3-5-1 and in

the middle of a five-week summer break.

“We’re hoping to get healthy and come back and play the football we were before the injury bug hit,” Bergstrom said. “During the preseason I really felt we had a good team. As we entered league play I t h o u g h t Bergstrom our offensive line was a team strength and we brought in four really good American imports. However, we had no depth in the offensive line, which made it a question mark. As luck or fate would have it, two of our five starters went out with knee injuries and have not played since.”

The American import quarterback also went out with an injury during the 1-4-1 slide.

The team’s tight end spent

time with the Ravens and Giants in the NFL. A running back/defensive back was a scholarship player at Arkansas, and the quarterback was a two-year starter at Grand Valley State in Michigan. Another American, playing linebacker and running back, came from Missouri Valley College.

Economics of each team allow for a certain number of American imports. And, the culture of the sport is different, Bergstrom said, because the German players are not paid. (American imports receive some stipends, such as housing.)

“The German players are not compensated and so as a hobby many can find excuses for not making it to practice,” Bergstrom said.

“That’s still the biggest frustration. Hopefully the commitment will improve so we can play competitively in the last five games. The season will end with our last game on the first weekend in September.”

Area softball Murray 6, SE Warren 2 MILO — Murray advanced to a Class 1A Region 6 semifinal against Wayne with a 6-2 win over Southeast Warren here on Wednesday.

“We played very well with the exception of the fifth inning, when we committed two errors and gave up two hits,” Murray head coach Danny Jensen said. “The theme is to survive and advance to the next game. We were able to score some runs early and our pitching and defense came through.

Zadie Hatfield made a great play with the bases loaded in the fifth. A runner tried to score on a passed ball and she tagged her out to get us out of the inning.”

Hatfield finished with two

hits and an RBI, as did Breianna Klein.

K a y l a Wookey and McKenzie Hatfield McIntosh each drove in one run.

The Lady Mustangs play at Wayne in Corydon at 7 p.m. tonight in the regional semifinal.

Nodaway Valley 10, SW Valley 0 GREENFIELD — Paige McElfish struck out eight and hit a home run here Wednesday, as Nodaway Valley rolled to a 10-0 win over Southwest Valley in a Class 2A Region 8 quarterfinal.

Nodaway Valley ad-

vanced to tonight’s regional semifinal in Irwin against IKM-Manning with the win.

The Wolverines scored seven runs in the second inning to break open a 1-0 game.

McElfish hit her ninth home run of the season in the first inning, a solo shot. The Nodaway V a l l e y McElfish sophomore also hit a double and drove in three runs on the night. Jessica Nelson added a double and Josie Carter finished 3-for-4 in the game.

Josie Clarke drove in two runs, while Carter and Natalie Daugherty each drove in one run.

Southwest Valley finished with five hits on the night, led by Allie Bronner, who recorded two hits. Kim Hults hit a double.

Kiara Roberts took the loss on the mound, while Kylie McBride pitched in relief.

“We are going to have to improve in many areas next year to be more competitive than we were this year,” Southwest Valley head coach Jim Obermeier said.

“In the POI, we have to develop more powerful pitching, make more contact with our bats and do a better job

in the field. We are going to miss our four seniors — Allie and Lexi Bronner, Kim Hults and Janelle Gibler.”

Exira/EHK 15, Lenox 9 KIMBALLTON — Lenox gave up 16 hits and committed four errors in a 15-9 loss to Exira/EHK here Wednesday in a Class 1A Region 7 quarterfinal.

“Again, the hitting was a plus, but the pitching and defense were lacking,” Lenox head coach Tom Shields said. “Four Tiger seniors finished strong, as Aurora Arevalo, Megan Brown, Katie Dukes and Bailey Schmitz performed well.

This group was integral to 77 victories over their Lenox softball careers.”

Court won’t overturn ruling that cleared ex-Iowa State guard AMES, Iowa (AP) — A ruling that found Iowa State University administrators improperly removed a men’s basketball player from the team for alleged sexual misconduct will stand, an appeals court ruled Thursday.

The Iowa Court of Appeals dismissed an appeal filed by the university’s governing board, which argued the discipline against former Cyclone guard Bubu Palo was appropriate for his actions toward a female student in 2012.

The decision leaves in place last year’s ruling by District Judge Steven Oeth, who threw out the university’s sanctions against Palo and questioned the accuser’s credibility. The judge said ISU President Steven Leath had kicked Palo off the team and imposed other

disciplinary sanctions despite no clear evidence that the sex was nonconsensual.

There are many friends and family members who have shown me much support and concern in the past several weeks since my surgery, hospitalization and return home.

Thank you to Dr. Kuhl and the GRMC staff for their expertise and care.

Thank you all who support the Bloodmobile as I needed two units of blood.

Special thanks to Jo Belding for her time and attention.

I'm very grateful for the prayers, cards, gifts, visits, help with food and transportation and much more. I will always remember how you helped with the recovery process.

Greater Regional parking lot to undergo resurfacing Barring weather complications, parking lots on the campus of Greater Regional Medical Center will be resurfaced beginning Monday.

The north entrance is scheduled to be resurfaced first.

Patients scheduled for surgery on Monday are request-

The south side of the Medical Arts Plaza parking lot, toward the gazebo, is scheduled to be completed on

Selena Sampson of Lincoln United and Tyler Waddingham of Douglas Boosters give an educational presentation on rabbit body types.

Second annual 4-H Communications Day held at SWCC Union County 4-H hosted its second annual Communications Day June 28 at Southwestern Community College. Communications Day is an event where 4-H’ers have the opportunity to give a presentation, perform a skit or talent, demonstrate how to make a craft, design a visual poster or practice their radio broadcasting skills.

Twenty three 4-H’ers from six different 4-H clubs participated in 23 different events. These events were done either individually or in pairs, depending on the category. Two judges were present to evaluate each category and the participants, as well as provide comments and feedback to the 4-H’ers. The judges then made their selections for who would represent Union County at the Iowa State Fair in August.

Union County will be sending nine different events to the state fair. In educational presentations: Tyler Waddingham, Selena Sampson and Tyler Loudon. In working exhibits: Tyler Waddingham and Selena Sampson, Macy Evans and Gracie Russell, Allivea Skarda, Clarissa Hoffman and Sarah King. In Share the Fun: Brenna Baker and Livi Hartman. In extemporaneous speaking: Tyler Waddingham.

Blue ribbon award winners include: Riley Long,

Keegan Bailey, Emmet Long, Averie Eckels and Peyton Long in educational presentations; Brielle, Braelyn and Brance Baker and Riley, Emmet and Peyton Long in Share the Fun; Tyler Loudon and Clarissa Hoffman in extemporaneous speaking; Clarissa Hoffman, Cassondra Hoffman, Elizabeth Hadley and Tyler Loudon in radio broadcasting; Aubrey Allen, Reilly Martinez and Rorie Tomas in working exhibits.

“It is exciting to see this event nearly double in its second year, and it’s fun to watch those young 4-H’ers get up there and show us what they have been working on,” said Haley Jones, U n i o n C o u n ty youth and outreach coordinator. Jones “Building your communication skills is a valuable asset in life, and I feel it is important to bring that out in the 4-H program.”

All 4-H’ers who participated in the Communications Day event have the opportunity to perform and present their efforts again during the Union County Fair 6 p.m. July 22 in the commercial building.
