Huffman resigns from Creston Library Board

By KYLE WILSON

CNA managing editor kwilson@crestonnews.com

A Creston Library Board member resigned during their meeting Monday at Gibson Memorial Library.

Calvin Huffman declined giving a reason for his resignation, but said he “had a good run working with good people.” Huffman has served on the board since April 2009 — fufilling roles of secretary and vice president during his term.

“Calvin’s been an excellent advocate and resource for the library,” said Ann Coulter, presi-

dent of Creston Library Board.

“He was always trying to help the library stay current and provide the best possible services to our community. He Coulter will definitely be missed.”

The board accepted his resignation effective immediately, and the search for a new library board member has begun. If interested in the seat, applications can be found on the city’s website (www.crestoniowa.gov) under the library tab.

If interested in the seat, applications can be found on the city’s website { www.crestoniowa. gov } under the library tab.

They can also be picked up in person at city hall.

Important: Candidates for this seat must live in the city limits of Creston.

“We feel like our board needs to be gender balanced,” Coulter said, “so we are hoping to select a male candidate and someone who — like Calvin — was a strong advocate for the library.”

Completed applications for this

open seat are to be emailed to cityclerk@crestoniowa.gov, sent by mail to PO Box 449, Creston, IA, 50801 or delivered in person at 116 W. Adams St. Deadline for the application is Sept. 30.

The new member will be selected by Creston Mayor Warren Woods with approval from Creston City Council.

This new library board member would fulfill the remainder of

sleepy students

Fatigue is becoming a way of life for many high school students. American Academy of Pediatrics recommends national educators push back start times to 8:30 a.m. or later.

HICAGO (MCT) — On a typical school night, Nicole Bankowski averages about five hours of sleep. She is taking four AP classes, along with serving as editor of the school newspaper, treasurer of the student council and member of the show choir.

“It’s probably not the healthiest way to live, but it’s the only way to get everything done,” said

the Buffalo Grove High School senior, who typically doesn’t start her homework until 10:30 p.m.

With the school year just underway, students like Bankowski are already sleep-deprived. Last week, the American Academy of Pediatrics issued what it hopes will be a wake-up call to the nation’s educators: Push back school start times to 8:30 a.m. or later.

“Delaying school start times is one of the most effective inter-

ventions to reduce the negative consequences of chronic sleep loss,” said Judith Owens, lead author of the academy’s policy statement and director of sleep medicine at Children’s National Medical Center in Washington, calling the situation “a national public health crisis.”

The later start is urged for middle and high schools so kids can get the 8.5 to 9.5 hours of shut-eye they need to grow and learn, the academy said. But only about 15 percent of U.S. high schools have an opening bell that rings at 8:30 a.m. or later, according to federal

Huffman’s resignation comes after Creston City Council voted 6-1 last month to sell the Lincoln School property to Seldin Company of Omaha, Neb., for $10,000.

Seldin plans to refurbish the old school into senior housing.

This decision by the council last month was disheartening for Creston Library Board, which was in the middle of fundraising efforts to transform Lincoln School into Please see LIBRARY, Page 2

RED OAK (AP) — A water leak during the Labor Day weekend has indefinitely shuttered a southwest Iowa middle school.

The Daily Nonpareil reports that Red Oak Middle School students missed class all week. They will start again Monday at other district facilities. The threestory school building in Red Oak is more than 100 years old and serves about 265 students.

The district superintendent said Wednesday that a state electrical inspector deemed the building unsafe for occupancy until repairs are completed. It’s unclear what started the leak, which caused as much as 2 inches of water to flood the second floor of the school.

The superintendent says he expects the work to last 10-14 days but more repairs could be needed. He says insurance is expected to pay for the repairs.

Huffman’s term which expires July 1, 2017.

BOSTON (AP) — Thirty-two states that either allow gay marriage or have banned it asked the U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday to settle the issue once and for all.

Fifteen states that allow gay marriage, led by Massachusetts, filed a brief asking the justices to take up three cases from Virginia, Utah and Oklahoma and overturn bans. And 17 other states, led by Colorado, that have banned the practice asked the court to hear cases from Utah and Oklahoma to clear up a “morass” of lawsuits, but didn’t urge the court to rule one Please see SUPREME COURT, Page 2

Deaths Ula Hays Afton

Ula Hays, 70, of Afton died Sept.

4, 2014, at her residence in Afton.

Services will be 1:30 p.m.

M o n d a y , Hays Sept. 8, at Watson-Armstrong Funeral Home, 205 W. Monroe St., Mount Ayr. Burial will be in Rose Hill Cemetery in Mount Ayr. Visitation with family present will be 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. Monday at the funeral home. Memorials may be directed to the Greater Regional Healthcare Foundation Cancer Center. Online condolences may be left at www.watso-

narmstrongfh.com.

Ula Agnes Hays, daughter of Cleo Helen (Stringham) and Charles Wade Hampton, was born Jan. 6, 1944, in Mount Ayr. Ula attended Mount Ayr School.

In August 1977, Ula married Orval Franklin Hays.

Ula worked many different places throughout the years at the Elm’s Club in Creston and most recently ran the Creston laundrymat for several years.

Ula is survived by her sister Vera (Richard) Duff of Adel; sister in-law Elaine Millsap of Ravenwood, Mo.; nieces, nephews and friends.

Ula was preceded in death by her parents; husband; brother Buster Millsap; nephews, Charlie Millsap and William Duff; and niece Cindy Gruver.

way or another.

The filing came as a threejudge panel of the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago ruled that same-sex marriage bans in Wisconsin and Indiana are unconstitutional. The unanimous decision Thursday criticized the justifications both states gave, several times singling out the argument that marriage between a man and a woman is tradition. There are, the court noted, good and bad traditions.

The experience of Massachusetts — the first state to legalize gay marriage — shows that allowing same-sex couples to wed has only benefited families and strengthened the institution of marriage, said Attorney General Martha Coakley.

“Laws that bar same-sex couples from marrying are discriminatory and unconstitutional,” she said. “The time has come for this critical issue to be resolved.”

Massachusetts was joined

by California, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Vermont, and Washington.

Colorado’s brief argued that the definition of marriage faces legal challenges only the Supreme Court can resolve, and that without a Supreme Court decision, states defending bans could be liable for huge legal bills from future lawsuits if they are overturned. It was written by Daniel D. Domenico,

the state’s solicitor general, and Michael Lee Francisco, assistant solicitor general.

Colorado was joined by Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Georgia, Idaho, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, West Virginia and Wisconsin.

These are the cases addressed in the briefs: — In Virginia, the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in July that the state’s voter-approved ban is unconstitutional. The state has appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, which hasn’t said whether it will accept the case. But the high court granted a request on Aug. 20 from a county clerk to delay implementation of the ruling, which would have allowed same-sex couples to marry beginning the next day.

— In Oklahoma, an appeals court tossed the state’s ban in July but put its ruling on hold pending an appeal, meaning same-sex couples can’t marry in Oklahoma for now. Attorneys representing the Tulsa County court clerk — who refused to issue a marriage license for a lesbian couple there — asked the Supreme Court this month to hear the case.

— In Utah, the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver ruled this summer that Utah must allow gay couples to marry, though it put the ruling on hold pending an appeal. The state has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold the state’s ban.

the city’s new library. The board had raised $400,000 toward their $1.8 million Lincoln-to-Library project.

So, what’s the next move for Creston Library Board? What will be done with the $400,000?

The board and Creston City Council have scheduled a work session 5:15 p.m. Sept. 15 at Gibson Memorial Library.

“The goal of this session is to share and gather information from the council about where to go next with ex-

panding library services in our area.

We want feedback from the council,” Coulter said.

The meeting is open to the public.

In other Creston Library Board news: • Library board officers for 2014-15 were selected. Ann Coulter and Jean Ide will continue to be president and vice president, respectively. Jeromy Brown will replace Calvin Huffman as secretary.

• Gibson Memorial Library recently received a $500 Elevate Iowa grant to purchase an iPad Air. Applications

will be installed on this iPad to help students grades 6-12 with advanced manufacturing motor skills and mathematics. Elevate Iowa estimates that manufacturing currently accounts for 87.9 percent of Iowa’s exports.

A celebration for receiving this grant is slated 1 p.m. Saturday at the library.

SWCC President Barb Crittenden will be in attendance.

• Reminder: Gibson Memorial Library will be closed during the Balloon Days parade Sept. 20. The library will open at noon that day and close at 3 p.m.

data.

In the Chicago metropolitan area, calls to about two dozen high schools from Highland Park to Park Forest find that 8 a.m. is overwhelmingly the most popular school start time.

A few start as early as 7 a.m. Also, many student athletes have pre-dawn practices, requiring them to be in the pool or weight room at 6 a.m., making fatigue a way of life.

Researchers said this is not an issue that can be addressed by merely deleting an activity or two. Because of changes in internal circadian clocks that coincide with the onset of puberty, kids find it difficult to hit the hay as early as when they were younger, Owens said.

“So the 10-year-old who went to bed at 9 p.m. becomes the 13-year-old who can’t get to sleep until 11,” Owens said.

This biological shift occurs at precisely the time that the brain and body are developing at a rapid clip, and school commitments become more intense, making it “the perfect storm,” she said.

Just a little more sleep time also can reduce car accidents among teen drivers, she added. “This can be fixed with a relatively simple and straightforward intervention.”

But it’s not as easy as it sounds, said administrators, citing an array of logistical problems, from bus schedules to parents’ commutes.

David Schuler, superintendent of District 214 in the northwest suburbs, including Buffalo Grove High, said that later starts mean later dismissals.

That, in turn, wreaks havoc with the very same extracurricular activities that contribute to a student’s success, he said. Softball, soccer, golf and frosh/soph football are just a few of the sports that would be affected by an altered timetable.

Michelle Pindrik, a junior, rubs her face to stay awake during teacher Rich Schram’s eighth period honors physics class Aug. 28, 2014 at Buffalo Grove High School in Buffalo Grove, Ill. The American Academy of Pediatrics issued a statement saying school start times should be pushed to 8:30 a.m. or later, as many students aren’t getting enough sleep.

“I can’t change when the sun sets,” he said. “Even band practice would be affected.”

Five of the six district high schools start between 7:15 and 7:30 a.m.

Ironically, Elk Grove High — the only school that starts at 8 — has fielded requests from parents to start earlier to accommodate after-school sports.

The matter is hardly new, with some studies going back a decade. But getting a push from the nation’s largest pediatrician group has reignited the debate.

Over the past two decades, many studies have shown that a good night’s rest can have a profound effect on both emotional and physical health.

Children who chronically shortchange their slumber are at risk for obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases — even Alzheimer’s, Owens said.

But in today’s competitive world, you snooze, you lose.

Matt Shapiro, president of student council and a captain of the speech and debate team at Buffalo Grove, routinely is up at 6 every morning. But no matter how fatigued he may be, he fights it.

“I once nodded off in the third grade … and I never forgot how badly I felt. I never let it happen again.”

Cuffed suspect’s drowning death ruled accidental VERSAILLES, Mo. (AP) — The death of a handcuffed Iowa suspect who went overboard as a Missouri State Highway Patrol boat was transporting him was accidental, jurors ruled Thursday after a coroner’s inquest.

The decision means the Morgan County jurors saw no negligence on the part of Trooper Anthony Piercy in the death of Brandon Ellingson. The 20-year-old went into the water May 31 as Piercy was

transporting him from the Lake of the Ozarks on suspicion of boating while intoxicated.

Piercy put a Type III, ski-vest style of life jacket on Ellingson instead of a Type I or Type II life jacket with straps that go around the torso. Witnesses have said that Eillingson’s arms weren’t in the life jacket’s arm holes and that the safety device came off when he went into the water.

“I think it’s a joke,” said Craig Ellingson, Brandon’s father. “It’s a hometown decision. They (Piercy) didn’t put the life jacket on right. If they had put it on right, Brandon would still be here. ... It’s a sad day for Brandon, but hopefully we get justice on the civil side.”

Piercy, who had not previously commented on the drowning, testified during the hearing that he lacked training to handle the situation.

Horoscope Saturday, Sept. 6, 2014 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is a great day to schmooze and enjoy the company of others. Late in the day or in early evening, someone will surprise you, probably a female.

Hmmm.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You will be noticed today.

Personal details about your private life might be made public.

No doubt this will surprise you, but I think you won’t mind.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Unexpected opportunities to travel might fall in your lap today. Be open to this, because the world will be generous to you. How sweet it is!

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Expect changes today to arrangements in how you share something with someone, or how shared property will be divided. Fortunately, these changes look like they will be just fine. (Whew.)

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Relations with partners and close friends are warm and friendly today. Nevertheless, some kind of surprise will catch you off guard (perhaps an introduction to someone unusual).

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Your work routine will change today. It could be due to high-tech complications or the introduction of new electronics. Fortunately, co-workers are friendly and upbeat.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) This is a playful day.

Unexpected flirtations could make your heart go pitter patter. A surprise invitation to a fun event will please you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) It’s an interesting day! A group of people might descend upon you and interrupt your home scene. A female relative might surprise you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) You feel good today because you are strongly optimistic. Expect something fresh, different and exciting to happen — quite likely, you will meet new faces or go to new places.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Watch your money and cash flow — on one hand, you want to spend freely, but on the other hand, you might lose your money. (Gulp.) Therefore, be careful!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb.

18) Today the Moon is in your sign, dancing with Jupiter and Uranus. Jupiter makes you feel happy, and Uranus makes you feel excited. Yup, it’s that kind of day.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) You want some privacy today, which is why you will choose to work alone or behind the scenes if possible.

Nevertheless, fun times with co-workers are promising.

Expect a few surprises as well.

YOU BORN TODAY Your life seems to undergo major

changes. Generally, these are beyond your control. You like to appear attractive to others, which you can do because you have good taste. The first half of this year is slow, but then it speeds up. You are like the bud of a plant slowly opening.

Learn as much as you can to prepare for next year, which is a major year!

HEALTH

Make peace with fall:

Get over your love-hate relationship with autumn allergies (BPT) — Fall: love it or hate it? People who suffer from fall allergies no doubt love the fall colors and the festive time of year, while hating the sneezing, sniffling, wheezing and itching.

So what’s an autumn lover to do?

Batten down the hatches and get ready for fall allergy season with the following tips from the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI).

The early bird catches the ... allergy meds?

“The most important reminder we can give people is to start taking their fall allergy medication two weeks or so before symptoms usually begin,” says allergist Dr. James Sublett, ACAAI president-elect.

“You should also continue your medication for two weeks after the first frost. Because of nasal and eye symptoms associated with ragweed al-

lergies, symptoms can linger after pollen is no longer in the air.

You can’t run, but you can avoid exposure While it’s impossible to completely escape pollen and molds, here are some other ways to lessen exposure.

• Keep car and home windows closed and use air conditioning, if possible.

• Remember to change home and auto air filters and replace them with high efficiency filters.

• Don’t hang clothing outdoors to dry. Pollen may cling to towels and sheets.

• Outdoor air usually is most heavily saturated with pollen between 5 a.m. and 10 a.m., so early morning is a good time to limit outdoor activities. Mold spores,

however, are released due to wind, or other activities that stir them up.

• Wear a NIOSH-rated 95 filter mask when mowing the lawn, raking leaves or gardening, and take appropriate medication beforehand.

Apple picking, pumpkin pie and food allergies?

As summer eases into fall, kids are back in school and

adults start thinking about food-centric holidays like Halloween and Thanksgiving. Holidays that focus on food might also involve food allergies. One of the challenging issues is that many people may think they have a food allergy when what they really have is food intolerance. Food intolerance can often mimic a food allergy, causing nausea and vomiting, but is not life-threatening. The best way to determine whether what you’re experiencing is a food allergy is to see an allergist for testing. An allergist will help you develop an action plan to deal with whatever allergies or intolerances you may have.

Take a deep breath and get an asthma screening Many people don’t know that allergies and asthma go hand-in-hand, and that an allergy can trigger a lifethreating asthma attack if

the person is unaware they have one, or both, of these chronic illnesses.

To help children and adults with symptoms of asthma and allergy know if they are at risk, allergists from around the country participate in the Nationwide Asthma Screening Program. ACAAI offers free allergy and asthma screenings throughout the year. The screenings, sponsored by Teva Respiratory, take place at about 100 locations nationwide.

A list of screenings can be found by visiting acaai.org/ nasp. For those who may think they have allergy and asthma but cannot attend a screening, ACAAI offers free online tools, such as the Asthma and Allergies Symptom Test, MyNasalAllergyJournal and an Allergist Locator, to track symptoms and find a local board-certified allergist.

heart-stopping added ingredient in processed foods: Lots are stuffed with saturated fats and sodium. The American Society for Nutrition says processed foods account for around 50 percent of the saturated fat, 57 percent of the sodium and 75 percent of sugars that most Americans consume.

On the other hand, not all processed food is bad: Whole-grain cereal with added vitamins, yellow mustard (Dr. Mike loves it for its turmeric!) and vitamin D-boosted low-fat almond milk are processed, too. According to the ASN, processed foods also provide 55 percent of your dietary fiber, 34 percent of your vitamin D, and 65 percent of folate.

So, before you drop packaged food into your grocery cart, ask yourself, “What was done to this to make it look and taste like it does?” and read the nutrition label.

Don’t like your answer? Put it back! Then you can walk out of the grocery singing “Mama’s (or Papa’s) Gotta Brand New Bag”!

YOU GOTTA LOVE THOSE BEANS When feckless Jack swapped the family cow for a handful of beans, he was onto something: Not only does a daily serving of lentils, mature peas, chickpeas or kidney beans help with weight management, the resistant starch they contain counteracts some (but not all) of the health hazards of eating red meat.

Chowing down 5 1/2 ounces of these high-fiber, highprotein, low-glycemic-index legumes daily can make you feel 31 percent fuller and

reduce your calorie, fat and processed-food intake. And while they’re doing that, beans can cut your risk for heart disease (maybe that’s why they call these legumes pulses!).

In addition, another study recently found that cancer-associated genetic molecules (miR-17-92) that get pumped up in your gut when you eat red meat return to normal levels if you eat a hearty serving of beans at the same time. Seems the resistant starch in beans passes through your body undigested, but on the way through the large intestine your gut bacteria ferment it, so it produces short chain fatty acids, such as butyrate, that help protect you from heart disease, cancer and gastrointestinal distress.

It’s a lot smarter to dodge all the hazards of red meat — including heart disease, a lousy sex life and dementia — by avoiding it altogether, but if you do succumb to a burger, make sure you have a tasty serving of beans. Try harissa on chickpeas, olive oil and basil on kidney beans, garlic and mint on lentils, or chopped scallions and cilantro on peas.

Light up your life When John Denver sang “Sunshine on my shoulders, makes me happy,” he spotlighted full-spectrum light’s ability to influence mood and health. And a new study reinforces just how important it is to get your daily dose of sunshine. Nurses exposed to natural light had lower blood pressure, were more alert, had better interaction with colleagues, laughed more and had better moods when dealing with patients than those who never saw the light. Another study found that workers in windowless offices had more physical problems and worse sleep habits than their windowed colleagues.

One reason for the benefits may be that more sunlight means your body makes more vitamin D-3, but sunlight does more than trigger production of that essential vitamin. Light acts as a nutrient for metabolic processes, influencing your body clock, endocrine system, and pituitary and pineal glands. Unfortunately, it’s estimated that 10 percent of you have no access to sunlight during your workday, and in the winter, 30 percent of you go in to work before sunrise and head home after dark. So, make sure to take an outdoor break — even for just 10 minutes — at least twice a day.

Also, get your blood tested to see if you’re vitamin-D-3 deficient. A recent study found that having low blood levels of vitamin D-3 may double your risk of dementia! We suggest that you take 2,000 IU of D-3 daily until you get the results of the blood test; then adjust your dose as your

Weekly healthy tips Dr. Mehmet Oz, M.D. and Dr. Michael Roizen, M.D.

doc recommends. Chances are more outdoor time plus vitamin D-3 will boost your mood and your long-term health.

AN ASPIRIN A DAY KEEPS THE DOCTOR AWAY In 1550 B.C., Egyptian physicians may have said, “Take two myrtle leaves and call me in the morning.” An ancient papyrus scroll indicates that even back then, people used salicylate-rich plants to ease pain. Flashforward 3,500 years: These days that plant-based ingredient has been refined into what we call aspirin, and it’s still making news.

A new metastudy found that a dose of 75 mg to 325 mg of aspirin daily, taken for 10 years between the ages of 50 and 65, bestows more benefits than harm — and the benefits are impressive. Looking at many studies, the researchers found that taking a daily aspirin reduced the number of cases of bowel cancer by 35 percent, esophageal and stomach cancers by 30 percent and prostate cancer by 10 percent. It also lowered the number of deaths from those various cancers between 35 percent and 50 percent. And bigger doses of aspirin didn’t offer more protection; it was the length of time (at least five, and optimally 10 years) that conferred the benefits. The downside: Taking aspirin daily ups the risk of diges-

tive tract bleeds among 60-year-olds, although it’s still rare.

So, if you’re between 50 and 65, talk with your doc about taking aspirin daily, and ask if you should be screened for Helicobacter pylori, the bacteria associated with ulcers. If you’re infected, treating it before you start taking aspirin may avoid complications. And remember: Always drink half a glass of warm water before and after taking aspirin. That keeps tablets away from your stomach lining and helps them dissolve quickly.

FISH GET AN HONORARY DEGREE When we saw the headline “Fish Consumption Linked to College Education,” we thought something sounded, well, a little fishy.

Let’s face it: It takes more than a couple of platefuls of holy mackerel to get into Notre Dame, or a cape full of cod to enter Harvard.

The “reel” story? A recent 10-year study from the University of Pittsburgh netted this information: Scanning the brains of 260 older folks, researchers discovered that those people who had a greater volume of gray matter in areas of the brain that handle memory (it was 4 percent larger) and cognition (it was 14 percent larger) were the same folks who ate broiled or baked fish at least once a week.

Those brainiacs, it turns

out, were also more likely to have a college degree than the folks who were fishphobic.

The researchers suggest that folks who eat broiled or baked fish often adopt other healthy lifestyle habits, and all together they protect the brain from age-related slowdown and dementia. So if you want your first-grader to get into a good college, or you want to protect yourself from cognitive problems later on, put non-fried fish on your menu at least once a week (they do swim in schools). Make sure that everyone in your family gets at least 30 minutes of physical activity daily, and avoid added sugars and syrups, any grain that isn’t 100 percent whole, and trans and saturated fats. Plus, learn something new every day; then your brain won’t be the one that got away.

THE PROS AND CONS OF PROCESSED FOODS In this summer’s hit biopic “Get On Up,” Chadwick Boseman makes James Brown’s processed hair look almost, well, natural. But that ‘do isn’t the only processed item that’s gotten big press lately. There’s a debate going on about good vs. bad processed food and the Food and Drug Administration’s proposal to give added sugar its own line on processed foods’ nutrition labels.

Food manufacturers are pushing back hard. We say, LABEL IT LARGE! If you could dodge all added sugar, you’d eliminate an arteryclogging criminal, plus most of you would ditch 16 percent of your daily calories!

And sugar’s not the only

SPORTS The Numbers Game

-100

Total yards of offense allowed by Tusculum against College of Faith in NCAA Division II action on Thursday, setting a new NCAA record for fewest yards allowed.

National Digest

Seahawks roll SEATTLE — Russell Wilson made sure everyone knew Percy Harvin was healthy. Marshawn Lynch bullied his way to another 100-yard rushing performance.

And Richard Sherman? He was just bored.

The Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks opened the same way they finished last season, with a blowout victory.

Lynch ran for 110 yards and two touchdowns, Harvin had 100 combined yards rushing and receiving, and the Seahawks dominated Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers in a 36-16 victory to kick off the regular season Thursday night.

The memories of last season were revisited, with the championship banner unveiled to celebrate Seattle’s first title.

But the ceremony was brief, a nod to putting last season behind and beginning the process of trying to become the first team in a decade to repeat.

Fed comeback NEW YORK — Clearly frustrated by his play and opponent, Roger Federer whacked his racket on the top of the net after a missed volley. Moments later, he barked at the chair umpire: “What’s wrong with you, man?”

Not long after that, Federer found himself in the precarious position of twice being one point from defeat.

Steady as ever, even at 33, Federer held on.

Coming all the way back from a two-set deficit, and saving two match points along the way, Federer edged 20th-seeded Gael Monfils of France 4-6, 3-6, 6-4, 7-5, 6-2 on Thursday night to reach the US Open semifinals for the first time since 2011.

Frustrated by Monfils’ unpredictable style, flummoxed by the swirling wind, and missing shots he normally makes, Federer faced the two match points while trailing 5-4 in the fourth set.

He got out of that hole, starting a five-game run that put the match in his control for the first time. It helped that Monfils’ quality of play dipped, including what wound up being a total of 10 double-faults.

This was the ninth time Federer has won a match after dropping the opening two sets.

Yardage record Tusculum allowed minus-100 total yards and minus-124 yards rushing to set NCAA single-game records in both categories Thursday night in a 71-0 victory over the College of Faith in Greeneville, Tennessee.

Tusculum, a Division II school, had three safeties.

The previous record for fewest total yards allowed was minus-69, by Division II school Fort Valley State against Miles in 1993. The previous record for fewest yards rushing allowed was minus-112, by Division III program Coast Guard against Wesleyan (Connecticut) in 1989.

Faith ran the ball 36 times.

Panthers sweep Clarinda in H-10 opener Dunphy’s serving sparks Panthers

By SCOTT VICKER

CNA sports editor • svicker@crestonnews.com

Clarinda built an 11-9 lead over Creston in game one of the Hawkeye 10 Conference opener here on Thursday, but the Panthers responded in a big way.

After winning a point to make it 11-10 and earning the serve, Panther junior Sydney Dunphy served 15 straight points to end the game, including an ace on the final point of the game.

The Panthers went on to pull off the 25-11, 25-16, 2518 sweep of the Cardinals.

“It seems like our very first game, we walk in here and we’re very nervous, very reserved,” Creston head coach Polly Luther said. “Until we start clicking, it takes us a while.

That’s something we need to work on every single day in practice, is that we come out strong from the start.”

Dunphy’s service string sparked the Panthers. Senior Natalie Mostek recorded a kill and a block in the Dunphy run, while Dunphy served three aces in the run.

Dunphy finished the match 27-of-29 serving with seven aces.

“It always helps to have that one spark, whatever it may be,” Luther said. “Sydney was it with her serves

for us tonight.”

The second game saw a similar start for the Panthers, as the two teams traded points back and forth, with Clarinda cutting Creston’s lead to 14-11 on a block

by Abby Brown.

But a crosscourt kill by Mostek put Dunphy back at the service line, and Dunphy served six straight points for the Panthers, including three straight aces, to make it a 21-11 lead.

“When we started putting

the ball away is when we really start catching some fire and doing things,” Luther said. “It all starts with a good pass and our passing was pretty decent. Hanna (Luther) didn’t have to run all over to get them. That allows her to put a set up for our hitters to do something with. We have a lot of weapons, but we have to be able to take advantage of them.”

Hanna Luther set 28 assists in the win, spreading the ball around to four dif-

ferent attackers.

A Mostek kill gave the Panthers the gave victory.

She finished the night with a team-high 12 kills.

“Mostek is always a force for us,” Luther said. “It’s very clear and I know we’re going to have people that are gunning for her. She just continues to come out and set the bar as to where we need to be.”

The third game was tightly-contested throughout, but junior Jenna Taylor

came up big at the end of the game, winning several points and recording a block to give the Panthers a 19-15 Taylor lead.

MARYVILLE, Mo. — It took awhile, but the defending national champion Northwest Missouri State Bearcats got rolling late in the first half on the way to a 31-7 seasonopening Bevins victory Thursday over Nebraska-Kearney.

Sophomore defensive tackle Collin Bevins of Creston split time with senior Zach Williams and contributed one solo tackle,

an assisted tackle and got credit for half of a tackle for loss.

Former Panther teammate Keaton Hulett, a redshirt freshman defensive end, also dressed for the No. 1-ranked Bearcats, but did not see action.

The game was tied 7-7 in the first quarter when Kearney completed a 10-play drive that ate up 4:43 of the clock.

The Bearcats answered with another touchdown and 44-yard field goal by Simon Mathiesen to post a 17-7 lead at intermission.

The second-half margin was 14-0.

“We came out pretty slow,” said Bevins, a 6-6, 292-pound transfer from Iowa State who helped the Bearcats earn the program’s fourth NCAA Division II title last year. (Previous titles were 1998, 1999 and 2009, the latter includ-

ing offensive tackle Dane Wardenburg of Creston.)

“None of us were really impressed with how we played in the first quarter, or the first 10 minutes or so, anyway,” Bevins said.

“Once we settled in and got our game speed back up, I feel like we did a pretty good job.”

Adjustment Bevins said an alignment adjustment helped curtail Kearney’s early groundgame success.

“We knew where they were running the zone play,” Bevins said. “They were running away from our 4 techniques, where Zach and I play, we knew if we set our nose in the G (gap), it would be hard to figure out where to run the ball. Once we did that, we were successful in stopping Please see BEARCATS, Page 8A

CORYDON — The Creston cross country teams nearly swept the individual races here Thursday at the Wayne Invitational, winning three of the four individual races.

In addition, the varsity and junior varsity girls teams both won their respective team titles, while the varsity boys finished third and the JV boys finished second.

The meet was added to the schedule after Tuesday’s meet at Dallas CenterGrimes was cancelled because of wet grounds.

Creston head coach Pat Schlapia said it was a challenging course that saw the runners traverse a golf course, gravel, pavement and a pair of corn fields that featured hills.

“With us never being there before, there was a lot of newness there,” Schlapia said. “Not only in the course itself, but the competition.”

Panther senior Maria Mostek won the girls varsity race, while junior Cooper McDermott claimed the top spot in the boys varsity race.

Sophomore Lexie Little won the girls JV race, while senior Kyle Jennett finished second in the boys JV competition.

The Creston girls topped Davis County by 24 points to win the varsity team competition with 56 points. East Union finished third with 109 points. (Full results were not available at press time, and will be published in a future edition of the Creston News Advertiser.)

“They medaled top 15 individually on varsity and top 10 individually on JV,”

Schlapia said. “Our top four (varsity) girls all medaled.”

Mostek crossed the finish line in 16:13 over the 4K course, p u l l ing away from East Union’s E m m a Mostek Harper and the top Davis County runner.

“She made sure it was her race,” Schlapia said. “That was some good competition.

It was a good test for her.

That 16:13, that’s a good first time.”

Juniors Jessica Beatty and Madison Hance finished ninth and 10th, respectively, in 18:02 and 18:08. Sophomores Rachel Shepherd and Madison Callahan rounded out the team scoring by placing 14th and 20th.

“Jessica and Madison, they’ve been trading off with each other,” Schlapia said. “We’ve had a couple of sophomores step up with Rachel and Madison scoring. That was nice to see the girls get out and get after it like that. We wanted to shoot for that first place and they got it.”

Boys McDermott and senior teammate Jay Wolfe pulled away in a pack of four early in the race, along with the top McDermott runners from Davis County and Albia.

the run a little better.”

Sophomore running back Phil Jackson II scored three touchdowns on 12 carries for 56 yards. Senior receiver Bryce Young had a 65-yard TD reception from junior quarterback Brady Bolles in the game’s opening three minutes, and finished as player of the game with eight catches for 144 yards.

Senior linebacker D.J. Gnader of Lewis Central and senior linebacker Eric Reimer finished with six tackles apiece to lead the defense, and junior safety Alex Taylor grabbed an interception.

Bolles finished with 19 completions on 30 attempts for 257 yards, one touchdown and an interception.

Ball control was the name of the game for much of the second half, and running back Jordan Grove of ADM carried much of the load. He finished with 49 yards on 10 carries.

A crowd of 7.878 was on hand at Bearcat Stadium, which features a new video scoreboard in the south endzone. Temperature at game time was 90 degrees. The rotation at defensive tackle might have served both Bevins and Williams well in that regard. Bevins got the start.

“It’s pretty much every other series,” Bevins said.

“At the end of the game, we pretty much take the same amount of snaps.”

Injury comeback Hulett, meanwhile, is still rounding into form after missing six months of team functions last year after undergoing shoulder surgery during his redshirt season.

He learned he would be dressed in uniform for the game earlier this week.

“I went light in spring practice until the last five days, when I was cleared for full go,” Hulett said. “I still wear a brace just to support it, so it doesn’t get extended. Right now I’m just

working on things, trying to get things figured out, playing on the scout team. The second-teamers got in tonight, but none of us threes or fours got it. We’re here to win games. If we get a big score and get in, great.”

Hulett, a state runner-up and champion at 195 pounds as a high school wrestler, is up to 245 pounds on his 6-3 frame now. He said he’d like to eventually get to about 260 pounds by adding “good weight.”

“Keaton plays strong side end,” said Bevins, who still has two more years of eligibility after this season. “It would be fun to be out there playing together again.”

“We came here the same year and spent a lot of time together just figuring things out,” Hulett said. “It’s fun to be here together.”

vocally and physically,” Luther said. “When she catches fire, you better look out.

She’s coming at you.”

Taylor’s crosscourt kill made it 21-17 and sparked the Panthers on a mini-run, taking a 24-17 lead. Dunphy eventually put an end to the night, hitting to an open spot in the middle of Clarinda’s defense for the win.

“It feels very good,” coach Luther said about the win. “It’s very important in our conference to start out strong. It really feels good.

The kids did a good job.”

Creston improved to 2-0 with the win and 1-0 in the Hawkeye 10 Conference.

The Panthers return to action on Tuesday at Atlantic.

“We have the weekend off, which is good,” coach Luther said. “We’ve had a lot of sick kids. It will give them a chance to regroup and get healthy so we can get after them. We’re going to have to get better and better every single game.”

BOYS TEAM SCORES 1. Davis County 54, 2. Albia

The Creston junior varsity team improved to 2-0 for the season with a 25-14, 25-14 win over Clarinda on Thursday.

“The girls need to continue to play their caliber of ball at

all times,” Creston JV coach Jessie McClellan said. “If we do that, we will be a tough team to beat.”

Brenna Baker served six aces, while Gracie Russell added three. Angie Sorensen contributed five kills.

PANTHERS: Continued from page 7A

After running the first mile in about 5:15, the group slowed a little, but McDermott ended up pulling away for the victory in 17:34.

Wolfe finished third, running 17:55 for the 5K course.

Ben Irr crossed in 20:03 for 12th place, while Nick Walsh and Isaac Wignall rounded out the team scoring by placing 27th and 28th.

“You’re not going to see a better one-two punch around than what we’ve got with Cooper and Jay,” Schlapia said. “Ben was our third medal winner for the boys varsity. He’s coming along.”

The gaps between the Panther boys proved to be the difference between first and third place in the team standings.

Davis County won the boys team competition with 54 points, while Albia came in second with 58 points.

Creston took third with 71 points.

Both Davis County and Albia, ranked sixth in Class 1A, placed all five of their scoring runners in the top 20.

Despite having two of the top three individuals, Creston placed only three in the top 20.

“We had too many gaps in there,” Schlapia said. “That just shows us we have a lot of work ahead of us.”

The Panthers return to action on Tuesday at Winterset in grade-level action.

The middle school girls race kicks off at 4:30 p.m., with the middle school boys at 4:50. Tuesday’s competition will be the first meet for the Creston Middle School.
