USDA pledges funding for 187 blender pumps in Iowa JOHNSTON — The Iowa Renewable Fuels Association (IRFA) today applauded U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) announcement pledging matching support to fund the installation of an estimated 187 blender pumps in Iowa, providing greater consumer access to lower-cost, cleaner-burning ethanol blends, through its Biofuels Infrastructure Program (BIP).

“We commend the USDA for providing matching funds to states like Iowa who want to increase the availability and use of American-made ethanol blends,” said Lucy Norton, IRFA Managing Director. “Iowa motorists will greatly benefit from the cost-savings and cleaner-burning properties that come along with expanded consumer access to higher ethanol blends. Furthermore, the impact of this program goes nationwide, opening up the option of low-cost E15 to millions of motorists, and putting pressure on other retailers to follow suit.”

Iowa currently has about 200 stations offering E85, and about 90 of these stations have blender pumps offering E85 and mid-level ethanol blends. In addition, Iowa leads the nation with 37 registered E15 stations.

According to USDA’s announcement, “Through BIP,

“Iowa motorists will greatly benefit from the cost-savings and cleaner-burning properties that come along with expanded consumer access to higher ethanol blends.”

— Lucy Norton

IRFA managing director

USDA will award competitive grants, matched by states, to expand the infrastructure for distribution of higher blends of ethanol. BIP funds from the Commodity Credit Corporation must be used to pay a portion of the costs related to the installation of fuel pumps and related infrastructure dedicated to the distribution of higher ethanol blends, for example E15 and E85, at

vehicle fueling locations. The matching contributions may be used for these items or for related costs such as additional infrastructure to support pumps, marketing, education, data collection, program evaluation and administrative costs. This partnership will expand markets for farmers, support rural economic growth and the jobs that come with it, and ultimately

give consumers more choices at the pump.”

Iowa is the nation’s leader in renewable fuels production. Iowa has 42 ethanol refineries capable of producing more than 3.8 billion gallons annually, including 22 million gallons of annual cellulosic ethanol production capacity and one cellulosic ethanol facility currently under construction. In addition, Iowa has 12 biodiesel facilities with the capacity to produce nearly 315 million gallons annually.

The Iowa Renewable Fuels Association was formed in 2002 to represent the state’s liquid renewable fuels industry. The trade group fosters the development and growth of the renewable fuels industry in Iowa through education, promotion, legislation and infrastructure development.

When deputies arrived, they located 3-year-old Janiya unresponsive.

Janiya was pronounced deceased by the Taylor County medical examiner. According to a Taylor County Sheriff report, Hall said Janiya knocked a pot of boiling water off the stove onto herself and he did not seek medical attention. Clair, Hall’s live-in girlfriend, said Janiya had fallen at least three times down a staircase, from the second to first floor of the residence, and did not seek medical attention.

Wacha appointed new mayor of Lorimor

By KYLE WILSON

CNA managing editor kwilson@crestonnews.com

LORIMOR — Lorimor residents have a new mayor this morning.

Randy Wacha was unanimously appointed to the position by Lorimor City Council Monday evening.

Wacha, a retired law enforcement officer, takes over for George Lange, who resigned from the post last month.

“Somebody needed to step up to the plate,” Wacha said. “I can work with people. I’m easy to get along with, but I’m fair. So, I took the job.”

Lange resigned last month after city clerk Doris Loy, who was on paid leave for two weeks in August because the city’s insur- Wacha ance company refused to fully insure her, was reinstated by the city council once she secured insurance through another carrier.

“I will not work with her,” Lange told the CNA last month.

This isn’t the first time Wacha has been mayor of Lorimor (pop. 358). He served from October 2014 to February of this year before “other priorities” forced his resignation at that time.

The 53-year-old Wacha will hold the mayor position until the election this coming November. He did say this morning he has already filed paperwork with the Union County auditor’s office and will seek to hold the position in that election.

Wacha is the third person to serve as mayor of Lorimor in the past 12 months.

will also be scheduled at that time.

Bost’s formerly scheduled jury trial was scheduled Oct. 7.

Bost, who submitted a written arraignment with a plea of not guilty in July, has also waived his right to speedy trial.

Bost and Jon Rubendall, 41, were charged during a Department of Criminal Investigation case involving the homicide of Pafford, 44, who was found Please see BOST, Page 2

2015 Iowa State Bacon Expo tickets go on sale AMES — Approximately 1,300 tickets have gone on sale for the third annual Iowa State University Bacon Expo.

The 2015 Iowa State Bacon Expo will be 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Oct. 10 in the Hansen Agriculture Student Learning Center on Iowa State’s campus. This is the only student-powered bacon event in the nation. Tickets will be available online at www.midwestix.com or at the door the day of the event.

Advanced ticket prices are: $12 for adults, $10 for students with a valid ISU student ID, $8 for children 10 years and younger and free for children 5 years old and younger. At-the-door prices include $15 for adults and $10 for children and students.

This year’s family-friendly event will not include punchcards, allowing attendees to enjoy as much bacon as they desire without extra expenditures after entering the event.

Bacon Expo and vendor merchandise, however, will be available for purchase during the event.

The 2015 Iowa State Bacon Expo will feature live entertainment, a live pig display, several educational activities

and booths about the pork industry and plenty of unique bacon items for attendees to enjoy.

The event will also educate attendees on the “Gate-toPlate” message, showcasing how pork gets to stores and, eventually, the dinner plate.

This message goes along with this year’s theme of #BaconNation2015, where attendees can learn about Iowa’s important role in the nation’s pork industry.

Philanthropic efforts are a priority this year, too. Any leftover bacon will be donated to Food at First in Ames, and the event itself will be supporting Wounded Warriors Project.

“This year, Bacon Expo is bigger and better than ever — not only have we increased our number of vendors, but we continue to offer new and exciting ways to celebrate the pork industry in Iowa,” said Lexi Marek, general tri-chair. “#BaconNation2015 is sure to be full of fun and delicious bacon.”

OPINION

Revisited birthday gift ignites memories, inspiration I found the note two years ago today.

It lay amid a pile of scattered cards, torn envelopes and sheets of bubble wrap — the remnants of a deluge of birthday mail I had received and opened in a rare moment of dorm room solitude.

The small cardstock square bore one sentence written in the unmistakable cursive of my grandmother: “The boy you were is very proud of the man you have become.”

It was a birthday present I’ll never forget.

That day was my 21st birthday.

I was halfway through college, still trying to figure out what I wanted to do with my life, and for some reason, the thought of a four-year-

Ian’s inklings Ian Richardson staff writer

old version of myself looking up at the current version made me pause to reflect.

Even now I revisit that note every few months. This morning, I opened the cover of my old college journal once again to see it paperclipped to the cover, right where I’ve always left it.

Today, I turn the ripe old age of 23. To some of you who are twice, three times — maybe even four

times — my age, to call 23 “old” seems laughable. Yet to me, it is old. It’s kind of like a new level in a video game. Or like a blank page in a journal. Or like the Lewis and Clark expedition. Pick your simile, the point remains: I’ve never made it this far before.

My favorite description of getting older comes from the short story “Eleven” by American author Sandra Cisneros, in which an introspective narrator opens the story about her eleventh birthday with this observation: “What they don’t understand about birthdays and what they never tell you is that when you’re eleven, you’re also ten, and nine, and eight, and seven, and six, and

five, and four, and three, and two, and one,” she says. “(Y)ou don’t feel eleven at all. You feel like you’re still ten. And you are — underneath the year that makes you eleven.”

Birthdays are good days for reflection because they’re sort of like standing on the Continental Divide of Time. In one sense, you look back at everything you did the year before while, in another sense, you’re looking ahead to what the next year holds.

When I think about who I used to be, I think of how much I’ve done since those early years of life. But I also think of all the high aspirations I had during my early years, and the fresh, childlike wonder with which

I saw the world. Those are things that I always want to keep with me, although it’s a struggle at times to tap into that inner four-year-old that Cisneros writes about.

So when I look back on my cardstock note, I see it as a challenge.

It’s a challenge to stay true to the person I know I should be, the kind of hero that the four-year-old me would have aspired to. It’s the kind of challenge that, whether I’m turning 23 or 103, will always be one worth reflecting on.

It’s also a realization that the best birthday gifts don’t always come wrapped in paper, tied with bows or covered in icing.

Sometimes, they come on simple scraps of cardstock.

We like to hear from you!

Southern California had triple digit temperatures all weekend HOLLYWOOD — God Bless America, and how’s everybody?

Caitlyn Jenner went on the Today Show Thursday and discussed her car crash on Pacific Coast Highway that killed another driver. She’ll never go to jail for it. If Caitlyn is convicted of vehicular manslaughter, being married to the Kardashians for twenty years counts as time-served in Los Angeles.

Southern California had triple digit temperatures from Santa Ana breezes all weekend. Misery was added by high humidity from El Nino, packed freeways from returning vacationers and traffic lights that went out on major streets. Los Angeles went completely to hell on Friday to escape the heat.

The European Union faced security concerns Friday with all the Muslim refugees pouring into Europe from the Middle East.

There’s a real fear of ISIS infiltration and surprise terrorist attacks.

France’s National Railway is now charging French passengers double-price to sit next to an American.

The Grand Mosque of Mecca in Saudi Arabia was hit by a lightning bolt that struck the mosque on Friday, collapsing a huge construction crane and killing hundreds. It happened to be 9-11.

When the news hit the set of the 700 Club, Pat Robertson made a pistol with his hand and blew out his forefinger.

The World Trade Center attack was remembered Friday, marking the worst attack on U.S. soil and claiming three thousand lives.

Topical humor Argus Hamilton

We’re lucky it happened fourteen years ago. How many more would have died today, imagining the hundreds of young people fleeing the buildings stopping to take selfies.

Mike Huckabee said Thursday the Dred Scott Supreme Court decision which ruled that blacks aren’t U.S. citizens is still the law of the land. It’s scary to wonder who might have believed him. We can all agree it was the wrong day for Paula Deen’s restaurant staff to demand fifteen dollars an hour.

Donald Trump announced Friday he’s purchased NBC’s half of the Miss Universe organization and he now owns both the Miss Universe and Miss USA pageants.

It’s a new form of power. The President of the United States is going to control the world’s supply of Fox News anchors at the source.

Donald Trump set off a furor in a Rolling Stone interview Thursday in which he dismissed GOP candidate Carly Fiorina’s electability because of her looks. His remarks raised a warning flag.

It revived fears that if Donald Trump is elected president, he will someday leave us for a younger country.

Texas former governor Rick Perry addressed reporters Thursday and dropped out of the GOP

presidential race. He once said that God told him to run for president, a day after Rick Santorum said that God told him to run for president. If God’s that indecisive, he’s probably backing Joe Biden.

Dr. Ben Carson spoke in Anaheim Friday where he boasted of his own humility and evangelical faith and questioned Donald Trump’s religious authenticity.

Actually, Trump is a religious icon to many. For forty years, white Protestants in America have awaited the coming of their own Don Rickles.

Secretary of State John Kerry warned Russia’s government Friday to back off from its military build-up in Syria including troops, naval bases and barracks. There’s a lot of lingering suspicions. Last year, the Russians agreed to join America in the war with ISIS but they didn’t say on which side.

ESPN angered the NFL by airing betting line advice and reporting what teams were covering the spreads. Las Vegas bookmakers were quoted saying that Americans will bet ninety-five billion dollars this year on NFL football games. The idea is to teach children there is more to life than poker.

The Pittsburgh Steelers accused the New England Patriots of interfering with the radio signals sent from the coaches inside the press box to the quarterback’s helmet receiver in Thursday’s opener.

The situation in the NFL is just awful. Even the Redskins want a change in the commissioner’s name.

Help for the visually impaired Dear Heloise: I am legally blind. I struggle to read the paper, but I never miss your column in the Orange County (Calif.) Register.

I have attended seminars and am in a support group for people with VISION PROBLEMS. I have some hints that have been passed on to me that would be great for anyone: * Purchase colored dry measuring cups. They’re much easier for pouring white sugar and rice into. The same for measuring spoons. * When you have something black (like a remote control), put it down on something white or a light color. Makes it much easier to find. * The Library of Congress has many digital books available to read, and the playback equipment is free for people with disabilities. Contact your local organization for the visually impaired.

— A Reader in California Dear Reader: Thank you ever so much for writing. I was born cross-eyed and had several operations to correct my “non-vision” in one eye.

Those with good vision have no idea the daily “irks” that we meet. For my readers who are lucky enough to not have a vision problem, here is what I’d like you to try.

Hints from Heloise Close one eye and walk around your house, into a bedroom, back to the kitchen or den. NO PEEKING. Bump into a door frame? Miss a step or are not sure of your footing? That’s how I (and millions like me) see. Don’t even get me started on parking a truck! Try it with one eye closed!

Now close BOTH eyes half or three-quarters shut. Try to read, look at the computer or find that darn black remote control. Dial a phone number or heat something in the microwave. Not easy! This is how millions “don’t see” but still see some.

Take care of your eyes! — Hugs, Heloise WATCHBAND FIXES Dear Heloise: Do you have any suggestions to replace the second loop on watchbands? I wear watches in different colors. That second loop always breaks! It’s necessary to hold the strap down. — Beverly H., Kent, Ohio Beverly, you’re right! Those loops break quite easily. Here

FAMILY CIRCUS® by Bill Keane

LOCKHORNS® by Hoest & Reiner

are some suggestions for quick fixes: Purchase tiny, colorful rubber bands. Place one on the band before wearing it. Then just loop the band inside the rubber band. Smaller orthodontic elastics for braces also can be used. — Heloise TAKE A PICTURE Dear Heloise: When at the optometrist’s office and while trying on new eyeglasses, I use my cellphone to take selfies. It’s a good way to really contemplate how one looks in those new glasses (I can’t see myself in their distant mirrors). — A Reader, sent from cellphone LASTING LIPSTICK Dear Heloise: There is so much lipstick left in the tube after you use it down to the level. Get a lipstick brush and BEETLE BAILEY® by Greg & Mort Walker use it to clean out the rest of the tube. It will last so much longer. — Beth M., via email Send a money-saving or timesaving hint to Heloise, P.O. Box 795000, San Antonio, TX 78279-5000, or you can fax it to 1-210-HELOISE or email it to Heloise@Heloise.com. I can’t answer your letter personally but will use the best hints received in my column.

San Francisco has won 8 straight games on Monday Night Football.

National Digest

Falcons win ATLANTA (AP) — Julio Jones hauled in nine passes for 141 yards, including a pair of touchdowns, and the Atlanta Falcons came back after squandering a 17-point halftime lead to beat the Philadelphia Eagles 2624 Monday night in the coaching debut of Dan Quinn.

Coming off the best season of his career, Jones was rewarded with a new $71.25 million contract.

Early on, he dominated the Eagles’ revamped secondary as Atlanta raced to a 20-3 halftime lead.

Philadelphia rallied behind new quarterback Sam Bradford, taking the lead for the first time at 24-23 on Ryan Mathews’ 1-yard run with 8:37 remaining.

Back came the Falcons, driving into position for Matt Bryant’s fourth field goal of the game, a 47-yarder with 6:27 to go that turned out to be the winner.

Vikings fall SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Carlos Hyde wanted to outplay the better-known No. 28 on the field, Adrian Peterson.

He did that and more, and Jim Tomsula’s San Francisco 49ers produced a victory in his debut as head coach minus the interim status he had for the final game of 2010.

Hyde carried the offense with 168 yards on the ground and touchdown runs of 17 and 10 yards in his first career start, spinning away from a defender and diving into the end zone untouched on a rare nice play in a first half full of ugly ones to lead the Niners past the Minnesota Vikings 20-3 on Monday night.

Peterson ran 10 times for 31 yards playing his first game in more than a year following paid leave and then a suspension last year in the fallout from a child-abuse case against him in Texas.

Colin Kaepernick threw for 165 yards and second-year back Hyde ran 26 times to easily best his top rookie performance of 55 yards in his final game last year.

All-American AMES — Iowa State senior forward Georges Niang has been named a Sporting News Preseason First-Team All-American, announced Monday by the publication.

Niang, a Methuen, Massachusetts, native, earned a spot on the top team after averaging 15.3 points, 5.4 rebounds and 3.4 assists last season. He was one of just two players in the nation 6-8 or taller to average at least 15.0 points and 3.0 assists in 2014-15.

Niang enters his final season as a Cyclone with 1,510 career points, which is fifth among active Division I players. He is the only player nationally with 1,500 points, 450 rebounds and 300 assists.

Niang earned All-America honors from The Associated Press and National Association of Basketball Coaches in 2014-15.

Wolverine boys win team title at Ballard Panthers medal three in Class A

By SCOTT VICKER

CNA sports editor • svicker@crestonnews.com

HUXLEY — Nodaway Valley continued its dominance on the cross country course here Tuesday at the Ballard Invitational.

Senior Destiny Scar and junior Shane Breheny claimed individual titles in Class B, finishing third overall and second overall in the combined Class A and Class B races.

The Wolverine boys team, ranked No. 1 in Class 1A, also secured a three-point victory over Class 2A second-ranked Garner-Hayfield/Ventura, 71-74, while also topping Class 2A sixthranked Eagle Grove and Class 3A 12th-ranked Gilbert.

The Wolverines finished third in the combined Class A and Class B standings, behind Class 3A second-ranked Pella and third-ranked Dallas Center-Grimes.

Meanwhile, Creston had three medalists in Class A, led by senior Cooper McDermott’s fourth-place finish.

McDermott ran 17:23 to pace the Panthers, finishing behind Carlisle’s JJ Orput (17:08), Pella’s A d a m McDermott Sievers (17:14) and Winterset’s Curtis Harry-

man (17:17).

“This was a personal-best placing for him,” Creston head coach Pat Schlapia said. “There was a pack of about four to six guys. This was a good test for him.

Some of the goals we have for him down the line, this is a good measuring stick for Cooper.”

Ben Irr finished 14th in 18:26 to continue his streak of medal-winning p e r f o r - Irr mances alive to start the season.

“He was within 63 seconds of Cooper, so that was nice to see him close the gap better than he did Thursday,” Schlapia said. “With Ben finishing 14th, he’s making a statement.”

In the Class A varsity girls race, Jessica Beatty finished 14th in 22:04 to earn yet Beatty another medal for the Panthers.

“Jessica is still proving each race she’s a force to be reckoned with,” Schlapia said. “For Jessica, 14th in this meet, this should be a real shot in the arm for her confidence-wise that she can be right there with these top girls. There’s no reason she can’t be in the hunt in Oc-

tober.”

The Panther girls finished sixth with 192 point, two points ahead of Webster City, while Pella won Class A with 49 points. The Panther boys placed eighth with 198 points, three points behind Norwalk. Dallas Center-Grimes won with 49 points.

Madison Hance in 39th, Lexie Little in 42nd, Amber Castillo in 44th and Rachel Shepherd in 53rd rounded out the team scoring for the Panther girls.

“We want to get those scoring girls, our goal would have been to finish in the top 36 (top half) with our scoring people,” Schlapia said.

Isaac Wignall in 45th, Dylan Linch in 67th and Trey Gift in 68th rounded out Creston’s varsity lineup.

“From two to three (Irr to Wignall), we’re about 1:50 apart. After that, we’re about 2:30,” Schlapia said.

“We’ve got some gaps we need to close with those guys.”

NV wins

The Wolverines didn’t shy away from the competition with the larger schools Monday.

Breheny finished second overall to Orput in the boys race, as both crossed the line in 17:08, with Orput get- Breheny ting the edge.

In the Class B team race, Nodaway Valley’s “Black Plague” led the Wolverines to the three-point win over Garner-Hayfield/Ventura.

Breheny took the top spot, followed by Garner-Hayfield/Ventura’s top three runners in second through fourth. But the Wolverines placed all five scoring members in the top 20, with Garner-Hayfield/Ventura’s fifth scoring member finishing 47th.

Scar finished third overall in the combined C l a s s A and Class B girls race, running 20:24 behind Class Scar 3A topranked Abby Kohut-Jackson of Ballard (19:40) and second-ranked Lexi Smith of Dallas Center-Grimes (20:18).

Scar posted a 21-second victory over Class 3A 10thranked Carly Rahn of Gilbert in Class B.

JV

Schlapia praised his JV teams for stepping up and running times that will push the varsity members.

Matthew Rouh ran 22:22, which would have been the fourth-fastest time on the boys varsity team. Ann Waigand ran 26:07 in the JV girls race, which would have been seventh on the varsity squad, with Cora Green and Emma Berning also running in the 26-minute range.

“That’s nice to see some of our JV kids stepping up and challenging for varsity spots,” Schlapia said. “That way no one can get too complacent with where they’re sitting. That’s only going to make the team better and improve.”

After racing in three meets in a seven-day span, the Panthers now have a full week off before hosting the Panther Invitational at Southwestern Community College and Crestmoor Golf Club on Sept. 22.

“We’ll recover and then really get after it,” Schlapia said. “We have some work to do.”

Area football Earlham 56, Nodaway Valley 8 EARLHAM — Earlham racked up 530 yards of total offense, including 468 yards on the ground, in a 56-8 win over Nodaway Valley here Friday.

“We took it on the chin on Friday, losing to a big, physical Earlham team,” Nodaway Valley head coach Steve Shantz said. “We were not able to match the physicality of Earlham. We never did set the edge of the defense, which caused big holes that we could not fill. Sam Marnin did play outstanding, but we needed to have a team effort and we had Marnin a few guys doing their own thing.”

Earlham built a 41-0 lead heading into the fourth quarter before Nodaway Valley finally got on the board with a 3-yard touchdown run by Brennen Weiland.

Nodaway Valley finished with a balanced 236 total yards, running for 118 and

passing for 118.

Freshman Spencer Lamb was 6-of-12 for the game with no interceptions. Jared Corder led the team in rushing yards with 46 and receiving yards with 112 on five recep- Corder tions.

“Our offense did some nice things and were very balanced, having 118 yards both rushing and passing,” Shantz said. “We were in Earlham’s red zone a few times and could not finish or turned the ball over. I still think we will get better and be competitive. We have to learn our roles and trust each other and we will be fine.”

Defensively, Marnin had five solo tackles and two assisted tackles. Dylan Cornelison led the team with six solo tackles and one assist, while Ryan Jensen had four solo stops and four assists.

Nodaway Valley, now 1-2 for the season and 0-1 in Class A District 8, hosts Pleasantville at 7 p.m. Friday in district play. Earlham

improved to 2-1 for the season and 1-0 in district play.

Iowa State’s run game can’t get off ground

By LUKE MEREDITH AP Sports Writer

AMES (AP) — Iowa State can’t seem to run the ball and their season largely depends on turning that around.

Iowa State rushed for just 63 yards last weekend in a 31-17 home loss to rival Iowa. The Hawkeyes leaned

heavily on defending the pass and shut out Iowa State in the second half.

The Cyclones (1-1) are dead last among Power Five teams with just 70 yards rushing per game. It doesn’t get any easier Saturday at Toledo: The Rockets are coming off an upset of thenranked Arkansas in Little Rock.

“I continue to talk about the running game because it’s not going away. It’s something you have to do.

You can’t abandon it,” Iowa State coach Paul Rhoads said.

Even though the Cyclones are severely inexperienced Please see ISU, page 10A

Creston/O-M JV-freshman football Junior varsity

Creston/O-M got off to a good start on a 7-yard fumble return for a touchdown

by Dale Boyer in the first quarter, but Winterset rallied to win Monday’s junior varsity game here, 26-15.

Winterset tied the game with 7:08 left in the half on a 5-yard pass from Dillon Hatten to Eric Shortt.

A pivotal play in the game occurred with only 49 seconds left in the first half.

Creston/O-M completed a pass along the sideline in its own territory, but Carter Tryon picked up a fumble after the reception and returned it 15 yards for a touchdown to give the Huskies a 13-7 lead at the break.

The Panthers had a defensive stand near their goal line after a long Winterset kick return to open the second half. But the Panthers stalled, punted and Winterset used two pass plays to set up a 3-yard touchdown run

by Brandon Rodish. Andrew Nicholl’s kick made it 20-7.

Rodish added another 1-yard TD run early in the fourth quarter to make it 26-7.

The Panthers nearly rallied later in the final period, but failed to convert on fourth-and-goal at the 5 on a pass play that was stopped at the 2-yard line.

The defense held Winterset on fourth down at the 29, setting up a 30-yard Panther scoring play on a pass from Seth Thompson to Tyler Peters. Thompson passed

to Dustin Merritt for two points, cutting it to 26-15 with 1:54 left.

When Dalten Bierle made a jarring tackle, Cody Wagner recovered the Winterset fumble near midfield.

Thompson’s pass to Peters took the ball to the Huskie 17 with 1:26 remaining. But the Husky defense held, forcing an incompletion on fourth down on a pass into the end zone.

“I felt like we started off the game great,” Creston/O-M coach Kevin Cooper said. “We drove the length of the field, and held them early on defense. We really struggled in the second and third quarters on both offense and defense. by the time we were able to get it going again, it was too late in the fourth quarter.

We need to focus on playing four quarters.”

the Winterset freshmen to a 27-14 lead over Creston/O-M Friday night.

Bryce Fitzgerald ran for 110 yards including an 11yard touchdown for the Panthers. Kolten Phelps rushed for 51 yards with a 3-yard TD run. Fitzgerald also connected with Tristan Travis for three of his four completions for 15 yards. Matthew Borha had eight total tackles including three for loss.

The Panthers were hampered by three lost fumbles.

“I have to say there was much improvement from our previous games,” said Creston/O-M coach Jon Thomson. “We were able to move the ball more consistently. We ran into trouble with controlling the ball. We lost the ball the first three times we had the ball, and two of those gave Winterset the short field for the score.”

Thomson said Borha was lost with a broken collarbone.

“That will be a big loss for our offense and defense,” Thomson said. “Otherwise, I feel we are coming together as a team. I am happy with the way the boys played.”

ISU: Continued from page 8A

in the backfield, their poor execution against the Hawkeyes was more about their linemen than anything else. That’s a bad sign for Iowa State, which believed its line would be better this season.

The Cyclones have four upperclassmen blocking for its four-man rotation of backs, none of whom have more than 200 career yards on the ground. But guard Daniel Burton should re-

turn to the starting lineup after battling back from knee surgery.

“It’s the little stuff. Steps, hands, bent knees,” guard Wendell Taiese said.

Rhoads also hinted Monday that Iowa State’s offensive coaches, led by Mark Mangino, will look to switch up some of its schemes to help the offense.

“I don’t know if it’s just all offensive line,” he said.

“Our coaching staff needs to give them some help.

The easy answer to that is...

to move (opponents) downfield to allow the ball carrier more space to run in. Now, how can I help you get that done as a coaching staff?”

There’s still time for the Cyclones to fix their ground game. They’ve got a bye next week and then a home game against Kansas, which is 0-2 and surrendering an average of 48 points per game. Iowa State does have a senior quarterback in Sam Richardson and several talented receivers.

But the Cyclones strug-

gled to run the ball last year too, and only Tulane, Central Florida and Western Michigan have fewer yards per game so far.

“We’ve got our people.

We’re playing our folks,” Rhoads said. “It has to deal with scheme and what we can adjust, what we can change to be more fruitful.” ___ Follow Luke Meredith on Twitter at www.twitter.com/ LukeMeredithAP and on Facebook at www.twitter. com/LukeMeredithAP

Pitt coach Narduzzi plans to stick with 2 QB system at Iowa

By WILL GRAVES AP Sports Writer

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Where some see a budding quarterback controversy, Pat Narduzzi sees potential for growth.

The first-year Pittsburgh coach is hardly in a rush to name a starter for Saturday’s game at Iowa. Maybe junior Chad Voytik starts. Maybe it’s transfer Nate Peterman.

Narduzzi is fine keeping the Hawkeyes guessing.

He is certain of one thing: both players will get to make a case.

“I still anticipate whichever way it goes, that third series the other guy coming in and

playing,” Narduzzi said Monday. “It doesn’t matter who (the starter) is.”

Voytik has started the last 15 games for the Panthers (2-0), including Saturday’s 24-7 win over Akron. Yet he found himself on the sideline as Peterman entered early in the second quarter and never returned while Peterman completed 12 of 17 passes for 148 yards and a score.

Peterman has quickly closed the gap on Voytik, averaging nearly 15 yards per completion, more than double Voytik’s average of 6.9.

While acknowledging a two-quarterback system probably isn’t sustainable long-term, Narduzzi plans to

treat the position like any other. Whoever does the best in practice will be given the first — but not only — chance to play.

“We’ve just got to go with the hot hand,” Narduzzi said.

“We’ve got two very, very capable quarterbacks. We’re comfortable with both those guys. We didn’t have that in the spring.”

That’s because Peterman was still in Tennessee, finishing his degree and preparing to transfer to the Panthers. At Pitt, he reunited with offensive coordinator Jim Chaney, who was in the same position with the Volunteers when he recruited Peterman out of high school.

Peterman’s first completion at Pitt was a pretty 42-yard strike to Dontez Ford in the opener against Youngstown State, though he was later pulled after throwing an interception.

Narduzzi acknowledged he probably should have allowed Peterman to go back in and bounce back from the mistake. There were no real miscues once he entered against the Zips — he played through soggy conditions as the Panthers avenged an upset loss to Akron in 2014.

Narduzzi said it may take a few weeks for the situation to sort itself out.

“I think they’re pretty equal back there,” he added.
