You can feel it when he talks.

The love Curt Turner, this year’s Citizen of the Year, has for the Creston community shines through during an interview Thursday at his house on Russell Street in Creston.

The 62-year-old Turner is a retired American Family Insurance agent who gave unselfishly of his time during his career and continues to now, despite health challenges.

“This award came as a complete shock,” Turner said, “because well, I haven’t done much of anything in the community the past couple years. I just haven’t felt well enough.”

Turner is diabetic. His kidneys failed in 2011 and he currently does 12 hours of dialysis at home each day. He also had a heart attack and a bout with colon cancer. But, you get the indication talking with Turner about these setbacks Thursday, that he’s never been one to back down from a battle.

After all, this is a guy who, in June 1986, started American Family Insurance in Creston with zero polices and little experience in the insurance industry.

“At that time, my uncle was in insurance and was making three times as much as me,” Turner said.

“I needed to make more money. I had three children and wanted to put them through college. It was a risk, yes, but it paid off for our family.”

Turner retired in 2008 with more than 6,000 policies at American Family Insurance and led the company nationally in farm sales for 10 consecutive years.

His daughter Katie now manages the agency.

During his 22-year career at American Family Insur-

ance, Turner was part of the “long red line of Panther Pride” He was often found volunteering in the Creston community. He was exalted ruler at Creston Elks Lodge #605 in the 1990s.

He was on Creston School Board from 199099 when plans for the new elementary/middle school were put in place. He served on the board, at different times, with Marion James, Bob Kuhl, Sharon Bennett, Mindy Dresback and John Tapken.

“He was so dedicated to the board and to the kids of Creston Schools,” Bennett said. “He played an important role on that board ...

“Curt had ability to see the whole picture, Bennett said. “On the whole, the board had the goal of what is best for the kids in the district, so that a Creston High School dimploma meant something in the working world and beyond. It was also a board

that respected one another and worked cohesively for the betterment of the students.”

Additionally, Bennett praised his involvement in the implementation of Dollars for Scholars and his annual donation to that cause. She also praised his talent for being good with numbers and a “go-to guy” during preparations for the school’s annual budget.

“He was whiz with figures in his head,” Bennett said.

Turner has also been a leader at United Church of Christ (UCC) on Montgomery Street in Creston, including numerous years on its council. He has worked its open tables to help those in need get a hot meal. He still donates to make sure the church’s food pantry is fully stocked.

Today, that pantry provides 2,500 pounds of food to the needy each week.

volunteer award

Former schoolteacher gives back from behind the scenes

By IAN RICHARDSON CNA staff reporter

irichardson@crestonnews.com

Creston resident Kay Raymond has spent years making a difference from the background as a volunteer for Friends of the Library, Southern P r a i r i e Raymond YMCA and many other local organizations.

Tuesday evening, all that hard work will be brought to the forefront as she receives the 2015 Creston Volunteer of the Year Award during the Chamber of Commerce annual meeting at The Lobby.

Raymond retired from teaching special education in the Creston Community School District 12 years ago. Until then, Raymond said most of her focus had been on her teaching career and raising her four children. But, finding more free time on her hands, she realized she still had much to offer her community.

“My family’s all healthy, we’re all healthy, I just want to give back,” she said.

Since then, Raymond’s participation has touched several clubs, committees and boards in the area. As of today, she has her foot in at least a half-dozen of them.

Russell named Chamber’s Youth of the Year

By BAILEY POOLMAN CNA staff reporter

bpoolman@crestonnews.com

Gracie Russell doesn’t know who nominated her for Creston Chamber of Commerce Youth of the Year, but that hasn’t stopped her from being grateful for the award.

“I’m not sure who nominated me. I have no idea,” Russell said.

“So, whoever did, I just want to thank them.”

Russell is a senior at Creston High School. She’s active in FFA, volleyball, basketball, tennis and National Honor Society at CHS. She’s also active in the community, volunteering her time

with Appalachian Service Project, Union County Youth Council and St. Malachy Youth Group, as well as putting time in with Douglas Boosters 4-H Club and Iowa Junior Beef Breeds Association.

Other activities Russell has participated in are donating blood, Meals from the Heartland, roadside cleanup, Rectory Rerun time, painting at McKinley Park, decorating the restored Creston Depot for Christmas activities, Balloon Days pedal pull time, Halloween safety at Early Childhood Center, planting trees around the community and Open Table.

Even with all the time and effort she’s put into helping her school and community, the 17-year-old

was shocked when Creston Chamber of Commerce Director Ellen Gerharz contacted her about the nomination.

“Ellen called me about a week or two ago and told me that I had been chosen at the Chamber meeting. I was really shocked,” Russell said. “I remember the girl who got it last year (Raegen Smith), I was friends with her, but I had never thought that somebody would nominate me. I felt really honored that somebody would think of me.”

Russell said, after talking with Gerharz, she immediately called her mother Julie, who, with the

INSIDE Deaths

Leslie Maudlin Dexter

Leslie R. Maudlin, 61, of Dexter, formerly of Clearfield and Creston, died Oct. 29, 2015, at Methodist Hospital in Des Moines due to complications of a stroke.

A celebration of life service will be 1 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 14, at the Meeting Place Banquet Hall, 1003 N. Main Street, in Osceola.

Leslie Maudlin, son of Elvis “Bud” Maudlin and Merliene (Moore) Maudlin, was born Dec. 4, 1953, in San Luis Obispo, California. After high school, he enlisted in the Army from 1974 to 1980, where he was stationed in Germany for most of his tour. Upon returning to the

states, he settled in Creston and later near Clearfield.

Leslie worked as a technician at Wellman’s Dynamics and Gits Manufacturing for many years.

Leslie is survived by his mother Merliene Maudlin of Dexter; sisters, Wanda (Lyle) Sanders of Dexter and Christine (James) Spurgin of Osceola; seven nephews; four nieces; several aunts, uncles and cousins.

Leslie was preceded in death by his grandparents, Elsie (Scott) and Leonard Maudlin of Clearfield and Francis (Gabriel) and William Moore of Central City, Nebraska and his father Elvis “Bud” Maudlin of Kellerton.

church lawn and trimming trees.

“He and Diana are always willing to pitch in and help when needed,” O’Riley said. “They are as generous financially as they are with their time.”

During retirement, Turner offered to be a local Seniors’ Health Insurance Information Program (SHIIP) volunteer. There, Turner helped seniors understand their Medicare supplements, part D drug plans and alleviates any other worries regarding insurance.

“I sold insurance for over 20 years, so I know what I’m doing,” Turner said. “They get all this stuff in the mail when they turn 65. Every company is sending them something. It can be confusing. So, I make it simple and easy for them to understand. They do appreciate the help.”

Turner helped more than 300 seniors in three years of volunteering.

“When I think of the Creston Citizen of the Year, I think of Curt Turner,” said Linda Kerns of Creston, who nominated him. “He’s just someone who would

give anything he has to help somebody else. And, those people need to be recognized.”

Turner and his wife Diana have three children — Travis, Katie and Callie — and eight grandchildren, who all live in Creston. He said many of them will be in attendance when he’s honored as 2015 Creston Citizen of the Year during the 76th annual Creston Chamber of Commerce banquet and annual meeting Tuesday at The Lobby in Creston.

help of her father, helped Russell be as active as she is.

“I think a lot of it is my parents,” Russell said. “They helped me a lot. I don’t live right in town, so I think getting to and from things, and kind of prioritizing things, that’s what matters. It’s kind of fun being involved, so you never want to miss an opportunity.”

Russell has been part of 4-H since 2006, and during the past nine years she’s been secretary, vice president and president each for one year. She’s also been a part of FFA at CHS since 2012, where she’s earned awards at sub-districts and districts and several degrees within the chapter.

But, her favorite moments have been with Appalachian Service Project, when she and the group do residential construction in Kentucky.

“Anybody who goes on the trip will tell you it’s hard to explain the kind of feeling you get when you’re down there. It’s really fulfilling, and you get to bond with all those people down there in a new way,” Russell said. “It’s kind of crazy the way you feel. It’s my fourth year, and I hope to do it again when I finally settle down after college. It’s really fulfilling to see those people’s faces when you give back.”

Russell said during the last trip, which was in July, the group roofed a house, fixed a door, put new panelling on walls and built a deck. The

motto is “Making their homes warmer, safer, dryer.”

“This year was my favorite.

I just had my moment, when I just knew I was in the right place at the right time,” Russell said. “We were down there in Kentucky. We had an older man who was really grateful for everything that we had done for him. And so, he would just sit there and tell us he felt that God brought us to him, and he felt he could never repay us for everything we had done.

And, I think, him just saying stuff like that, and knowing how grateful he was meant more to me than ever being at home, taking a shower, just anything. I knew that’s where I wanted to be.”

Even after college, Russell hopes to continue with ASP,

whether it be finding a new ASP group where she settles down after college or starting her own.

“I like not only being a part of something, but being involved,” Russell said. “I don’t like just being a part of it to be a part of it.”

Russell is the daughter of Rob and Julie Russell.

She has two older siblings, JaLynne Schmaling and Keaton Lundquist. Russell plans to attend Iowa State University in Ames or Kansas State University in Manhattan, Kansas, where she will earn a bachelor’s degree in agricultural business.

“I want to kind of work with human resources or public relations, something like that. I love being around people,” Russell said. “I

dent Jessica Duncan however she can.

Duncan, who joined in February, said Raymond has been a huge part of helping her acclimate to her new position.

“She’s been at every event that we have from beginning to end, being a champion for it,” Duncan said. “I’m very happy to see Kay get the recognition she deserves because she does sometimes stay in the background, but she is certainly a big part of what we do.”

YMCA Along with the desire to see Creston’s library succeed, Raymond also carries a passion for physical fitness. A charter member of the Southern Prairie YMCA, Raymond is at the Y at least 11 times a week for her sunrise yoga, pilates and Fitness for Everyone classes.

“The teachers are so knowledgeable about the body, so positive about us and caring about the students,” Raymond said.

But her involvement goes far beyond that. Raymond

served on the Y’s board for four years and now stays active on the Y’s Program and Membership Committee.

Jacki Steffen, the Y’s executive director, said Raymond has always been a dependable volunteer for several years. She said she has helped with everything from Healthy Kids’ Day to 5K runs to watching the desk.

“She always follows through,” Steffen said.

“Whenever we have any events we can always ask Kay, even if she’s not on the board currently.”

Slowing down?

At 78, Raymond says she should probably cut back some of her volunteer involvements. She admits she can meet herself coming and going, and full schedules aren’t as easy to navigate as they used to be.

“I’d like a cleaning service,” she said.

However, at the moment, she doesn’t seem to be slowing down. Along with the library and YMCA, Raymond is also active in the Pi chapter of Delta Kappa Gamma, an

more than a decade has been the Friends of the Library. It’s a love of reading and libraries that stems from her childhood in Illinois.

Today, though, she realizes the changing times that public libraries face and wants to help Creston’s library adapt to stay relevant.

“In those years, it was just checking out books, but it’s so much different in the 21st century,” she said. “I think we really need to expand somehow, somewhere to get it up to that level.”

Raymond said she enjoys the library so much she would “support it even if it was in a tent.” But, she also said she’s glad she doesn’t have to — the design for the library’s future expansion is the best she’s seen yet, she said.

“Over the years I’ve been there, the architects didn’t match the existing building at all. This one just flows,” she said.

Raymond has worked on every Friends of the Library activity, including the annual used book sale, Fourth of July Scholastic book sale, Valentine’s Day cookie bouquet sale and entertainment activities • Leaf Cleanup for children in the sum• Lawn Fertilizer & mertime. She served as Weed Control the Friends of the Library president for four years and now serves as secretary, helping current presi-

News is breaking badly Dear Readers: Here’s this week’s SOUND OFF: “I get frustrated watching breaking news on some 24-hour TV news channels. With each channel trying to be the first to get the story, it seems they report anything and everything, without verifying facts.

“The story is fluid and changing minute by minute. Channels seem pressed to report up-tothe-minute information when many times it’s incorrect. Even interviewing ‘witnesses’ presents its own problems.

“Since the media has a responsibility to report facts to keep us informed and safe, take time to get the real facts and eliminate hearsay and false reporting.” — D.R., via email Dear D.R.: You have voiced an opinion that many (including me) feel strongly about.

With the many ways people get and share news, it’s a whirlpool of information, some correct, some NOT, being thrown together.

The Dallas Cowboys have lost 6 straight games for the first time since 1989.

National Digest

Eagles in OT ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Sam Bradford threw a 41-yard touchdown pass to Jordan Matthews in overtime and the Philadelphia Eagles sent the Dallas Cowboys to their longest losing streak in 26 years with a 33-27 victory in overtime Sunday night.

Matthews broke away from Byron Jones and ran past safety J.J. Wilcox on the first possession of overtime to hand the Cowboys (2-6) their sixth straight loss. Jordan Hicks had a 67-yard interception return for a touchdown for the Eagles (4-4).

The Cowboys have lost every game without quarterback Tony Romo, who will miss at least one more with a broken left collarbone.

Matthews had nine catches for 133 yards. DeMarco Murray had 161 total yards — 83 rushing and 78 receiving — in his first game on his old home field after winning the NFL rushing title with the Cowboys last season.

Dallas All-Pro receiver Dez Bryant had his first touchdown of the season in his second game back after missing five with a broken right foot.

New No. 1 (AP) — Clemson is the new No. 1 team in The Associated Press college football poll, knocking Ohio State from the top spot for the first time this season.

The Tigers are topranked in the AP media poll for the first time since the final poll of the 1981 season, when Clemson won its only AP national title.

The Tigers (9-0) received 31 first-place votes and 1,489 points after beating Florida State 23-13 on Saturday. Ohio State (9-0) had 26 firstplace votes and 1,460 points. The defending national champions have been first since the preseason, when they became the first team to be a unanimous preseason No. 1 in the 79-year history of the AP rankings.

No. 3 Alabama (8-1) climbed four spot and got two first place votes. No. 4 Baylor also received two first-place votes. Oklahoma State made the biggest jump in the rankings, moving up seven spot to No. 5 after beating TCU 49-29. Iowa moved up to eight after beating Indiana, 35-27.

Broncos lose INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Andrew Luck finally reverted to his old form Sunday - and the Colts finally looked like the team everyone expected.

Now they just have to keep playing this way.

Luck threw two touchdown passes and set up Adam Vinatieri for a tie-breaking 55-yard field goal with 6:13 left, giving the Colts a 27-24 victory over Denver that ruined Peyton Manning’s homecoming.

“That’s who we need to be, consistently,” Luck said. “Probably a little bit of soul searching, trying to figure out what we want to be. The truth of the matter is we have the pieces, which is pretty darn obvious.”

Raiders ‘turn the page,’ return to UNI-Dome Daughton’s kickoff return sparks Mount Ayr in 34-15 win

By SCOTT VICKER

CNA sports editor svicker@crestonnews.com

MOUNT AYR — Unranked Lynnville-Sully seemed to grab momentum from ninth-ranked Mount Ayr in the second half here Friday.

After the Raiders took a 14-0 lead into halftime, Lynnville-Sully closed to within 20-15 with 7:04 left in the game on Sage Ehresman’s 2-yard touchdown run.

Mount Ayr had only strung together one second-half drive of more than three plays to that point, as the Raiders turned the ball over four times in the second half. That included three fumbles by junior Cal Daughton.

But Daughton turned the page in a big way and sent the Raiders back to the UNI-Dome for the Class A semifinals for the second straight year with a pair of big plays to give Mount Ayr a 34-15 victory.

Immediately following Ehresman’s 2-yard TD run, Daughton took the ensuing kickoff 95 yards for a touchdown, picking up a big block from Kyle Dolecheck and then evading the only defender who had a chance to tackle him.

“I was really proud of the way our guys turned the page. We talk about that all the time — you have a good play, you have a bad play, you just have to get ready to play the next one and make it the best play it can be,” Mount Ayr cocoach Delwyn Showalter said. “Cal Daughton was a wonderful testimony to that

tonight, because he could have hung his head and been concerned about what had happened previous, but he didn’t dwell on it. His kickoff return right after they scored, that took all the wind out of their sails.”

On the resulting Lynnville-Sully drive, Logan Stark put the Hawks behind the chains on first down with a sack of Tyler Van Zante for a loss of 16 yards. The Raiders eventually stuffed Ehresman on fourth-and-1.

On the next play, Daughton sprinted around the right side for a 41-yard touchdown to put the Raider victory away.

“Boy, I can’t say enough about Cal Daughton,” cocoach Derek Lambert said.

“He struggled there and had some fumbles and then had the kickoff return and turned around and had the 41-yard touchdown run.

That’s a young man that definitely turned the page for us tonight.”

Daughton finished the game with 100 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 17 carries. In addition to his 95yard kickoff return, he also caught a 40-yard touchdown pass from Jacob Taylor in the first half. Nick Wurster had Mount Ayr’s other touchdown on a 4-yard run

in the first half.

“Kickoff return, I just turned the page and saw a crease open and just took it to the house. I heard someone got a good block, but I’ll just give it to the whole t e a m .

They did a great job blocking,” Daughton said. Daughton “ F u m bling three times in a row was a big deal. I just turned the page and went to the house.”

Creston senior ends swimming career on medal stand Somers helps Waukee to 4th place ​By LARRY PETERSON CNA sports writer lpeterson@crestonnews.com

MARSHALLTOWN — Camryn Somers walked to the starting line of her final high school swimming race with a cold, steely-eyed expression.

The Creston senior had started the day with two solid performances — anchoring Waukee’s seventh-place 200-yard medley relay, just one spot from the awards stand — and swimming eighth in the 50-yard freestyle sprint after qualifying 13th.

But in her third race at state, Somers finished 14th in 54.23, after qualifying ninth with a time of 53.65.

That was a mood-changer.

She wasn’t going to go out like that.

“I was disappointed in my 100 free,” Somers said.

“I knew I was leadoff leg in the 400 free relay and I could redeem myself.”

Leading 14-0 and receiving the kickoff to start the second half, Mount Ayr fumbled on its second play from scrimmage. Ehresman picked the ball up and ran it back 13 yards for a touchdown to cut the lead to 14-8 after Ehresman ran in a 2-point conversion.

Mount Ayr responded with an eight-play, 65-yard drive capped off by a 2-yard TD run by Daughton to put the Raiders up 20-8.

Lynnville-Sully pinned Mount Ayr on its own 13yard line with a punt, and on RAIDERS | 7A

School record

That she did. Somers bolted to a 54.07 opening split as each of her teammates also shaved time off their previous time in qualifying with a school-record time of 3:35.45 at the regional meet a week earlier.

On Saturday, in the final race of the day, they combined for a 3:33.50 time that placed third in the state.

They had qualified fifth.

Somers ended her fouryear career as a Waukee Warrior swimmer on a school-record performance, standing on the medal stand. The group of Somers, sophomore Alex Thorson, sophomore Kayla Rinderknecht and freshman Emily Baeth scored 32 team points in the event.

That lifted the Warriors to a school-best fourth place finish in the final team standings with 185 points,

The Waukee foursome (at right) that placed third in the 400-yard frreestyle relay Saturday at the Girls State Swimming and Diving Meet includes, in front from left, sophomore Kayla Rinderknecht and senior Camryn Somers of Creston; in back, freshman Emily Baeth and sophomore Alex Thorson. Waukee set a school record in taking third in 3:33.50.

just three points shy of the third-place trophy earned

by Johnston, the school that Waukee shared a program with until 2011.

“Last year we were seventh and this year we were fourth,” said coach Shelley Twigg. “We just keep climbing up and Camryn had a big part in that. We were three points away from getting third.”

“Definitely it was a highlight with the 400 free coming in fifth and ending up placing third,” Somers said.

“We improved our time by almost three seconds.

We all shaved time off the school record we set at regionals.”

Being a part of the best team finish in Waukee’s program history to date was a nice way to finish her career, as well, Somers said.

“We had a huge goal of making top five this year,” Somers said. “We knew we were close to third, so that’s a little sad. But we can’t be unhappy with fourth when last year we finished sev-

enth and that was our best ever.”

For four years, Somers has been getting rides from family — and driving herself a lot this year — to Waukee every day for practice after school. That’s after a 6 a.m. training swim at Southern Prairie YMCA while her teammates were starting morning workouts at 5:30 a.m. in the Waukee Family YMCA pool.

COLUMBUS, Neb. — The Southwestern men came away with a 10-point win and a one-point loss on a shot at the buzzer in weekend action hosted by Central Community College (Neb.) and coach Jerry Drymon, former Spartan coach.

Southwestern beat Drymon and the Central team Sunday, 89-79, after losing to Dakota County Community College of Minneapolis on Saturday night, 73-72.

In Saturday’s game, a free throw by KeShawn Wilson put Southwestern ahead 7270 with 10.3 seconds left.

“They called timeout, then a guy drove the rim and Jok Kut blocked the shot with 4.5 seconds left,” coach Todd Lorensen said. “They recovered the ball deep in the corner, threw up a Hail Mary shot, and missed it.

They ended up grabbing the ball and the horn went off.

But the ref granted them a timeout and put 2.3 seconds left on the clock. On film it was .6 or .8 of a second at the most, and that’s if he even had possession. Then they came out and hit a contested three at the buzzer.”

Wilson finished with 17 points and point guard Ahmad Newsome provided 11 points and seven rebounds.

Spartan women fall by one in opener

By LARRY PETERSON They fouled us on the first Sophomore center LaStinbounds and we changed the play on the second, and we didn’t get a quality shot with about 11 seconds left.

Julanie Carter missed a shot and got her own rebound, and in going up again I thought she was fouled, but we didn’t get the call.”

Houston said a slow start hampered the Spartans in their opener, falling behind 17-14 in the first quarter and 35-25 at the half.

“We started out a little slow, fouling too much in the first half,” Houston said.

“A team gets in the double bonus now after five fouls in each quarter, and they shot 15-of-18 free throws in the first half while we were shooting 3-of-4. We started climbing back in the second half, gaining ground. We got several stops in a row and Julanie Carter was shooting well.”

Carter, freshman from D e s Moines, made 6-of13 from 3-point range in finishing with a game-high J. Carter 24 points.

Guard Sabrina Fountain had 16 points and seven rebounds for the Spartans.

LEAVENWORTH, Kan. — The Southwestern women rallied from a 34-25 halftime deficit but came up one point short in the season opener Saturday, falling 6463 at Saint Mary College JV. The new rules in women’s college basketball came into play in the final minutes of the fourth quarter. (One of those rules is playing four 10-minute quarters, instead of 20-minute halves.)

“There was a possession change with 14 seconds left.

We had the ball and I called timeout,” SWCC coach Addae Houston said. “I told the refs we want to advance the ball.”

This year, after a made basket or a change in possession in the final minute, the team with the ball can have it advanced to a sideline inbounds play at the 28foot mark instead of having to cover the entire court.

Houston said he told the refs of his intention when he called timeout.

“By rule, they are supposed to tell the other team if that’s what we’re doing, and they did not,” Houston said. “There was some confusion, and eventually they gave them a timeout, too.

and Kut was in foul trouble most of the game. TJ Bower finished with 12 points, three rebounds and two assists, go- Bower ing 2-of-5 from 3-point range.

“We didn’t value the defensive end of the court well enough,” Lorensen said.

“We have to do a better job on the defensive glass. We allowed them to get what they wanted. They shot 14-for-27 from the arc and 25-for-53 overall from the field. That’s too high of a percentage. We let them get comfortable early.”

On Sunday, the Spartans not only were missing Smith, but also quick freshman point guard Calvin Chambers, who sprained the AC joint in his right shoulder late in Saturday’s game.

Sophomore guard Josh Tolbert got the start and led the Spartans with 22 points,

shooting 6-7 from 3-point range. Jordan Johnson scored 21 points off the Tolbert bench.

N e w some finished with seven points and 11 rebounds after scoring 11 points on Saturday. Sergio Antelmi provided 11 points and 11 rebounds in his first start. Simon Joseph provided 10 points and seven rebounds. Wilson had another strong game with 13 points and four rebounds.

Baker Mayfield leads No. 14 Oklahoma past Iowa State, 52-16

By JOHN TRANCHINA Associated Press

NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — Baker Mayfield and the Oklahoma Sooners pushed aside one last overmatched opponent.

Mayfield completed 23 of 31 passes for 342 yards and three touchdowns and ran for a score to help the No. 14 Sooners beat Iowa State 5216.

Samaje Perine ran for 95 yards and a touchdown on 13 rushes, and Joe Mixon rushed for 88 yards and a touchdown on eight carries for Oklahoma (8-1, 5-1 Big 12, No. 15 CFP).

The Sooners have won four

straight, outscoring their opponents 232-50. They have surpassed 50 points in four consecutive games for the first time since 2008.

Now, the Sooners can turn their attention to their difficult stretch run in which they face each of the Big 12’s top three teams. They are at No. 2 Baylor next week, take on No. 5 TCU on Nov. 21, and finish at No. 12 Oklahoma State Nov. 28.

“We’ve been in a big atmospheres and big games,” offensive coordinator Lincoln Riley said. “The guys have a good trust we don’t need to do anything special. The whole team has bought in. ...

If we keep winning, the games

will get more important.”

Joel Lanning completed 26 of 51 passes for 260 yards and a touchdown for Iowa State (3-6, 2-4). The Cyclones have lost four of their last five.

“That’s a really good football team we played, and to beat a team like that, you can’t make many mistakes,” Iowa State coach Paul Rhoads said.

Oklahoma utilized a quickstrike, big-play offense that produced six touchdown drives of five or fewer plays — three in the opening quarter. After building a 21-3 first-quarter lead, the Sooners led 21-9 at halftime, then pulled away by scoring on all three of their third-quarter possessions.

the third play of the drive, Daughton lost another fumble, with the Hawks recovering at the 19-yard line.

But on third-and-12, Raider senior Rhett Murphy sacked Van Zante for a 10yard loss. The Hawks failed to convert on fourth down.

Two plays later, the Raiders lost another fumble.

Starting from the Raider 31yard line, a false start backed the Hawks up and then Ehresman lost 5 yards on first down. Lynnville-Sully was forced to punt, pinning Mount Ayr at the 11-yard line.

On the second play of Mount Ayr’s drive, Dolecheck slipped on a pass route and Taylor’s pass was intercepted, with Kobe Fisk returning it all the way to the 4-yard line.

But the Raider defense held on four plays, keeping the Hawks out of the end zone again.

“Our defense played lights out. Had our backs against the wall time and time again and just kept finding a way to make some plays,” Showalter said. “They’re a really good running football team and we never let them establish the run.”

Mount Ayr held the Hawks to just 30 rushing yards on 38 carries. The Hawks totaled 148 yards of offense, as Van Zante finished 11-of-24 passing for 118 yards. Taylor picked Van Zante off and then intercepted Ehresman on a trick play in the first half.

Raider summary phy had five solo stops and six assisted tackles.

Jed McCreary had six solo tackles and McCreary one assist, with four solo tackles for loss.

“Credit to our defense and how they stepped up and played tremendous in the red zone,” Lambert said.

“And credit to our kids for turning the page. We talk a lot about it and our kids truly believe it, whether it’s good things or bad things, we turn the page and make the next play the very best it can be.”

Repeat trip

Mount Ayr earned its first trip to the UNI-Dome last year, where the Raiders fell in the Class A semifinals to eventual state champion Logan-Magnolia.

The Raiders return to the UNI-Dome for the second straight year in hopes of making a bigger splash this time around.

“It’s pretty awesome,” Dolecheck said. “The coaches were saying it took us so long to get to the Dome and now we’re going two years in a row. It’s an amazing feeling.”

“It’s crazy. We’ve been dreaming about it just to get their once last year,” Taylor said. “We know what it feels like. We know what it takes and now we’re back again.”

Akron-Westfield won its quarterfinal game against West Sioux on Friday, 45-34.

District rivals Gladbrook-Reinbeck and Denver will meet in the other Class A semifinal at 10:06 a.m. Friday.

The Raiders believe having the experience of playing at the UNI-Dome last year will benefit the team this year.

“Last year we were pretty rattled at the beginning and everyone was nervous,” Dolecheck said. “I think this year we’ll have the experience. All the seniors will be calmer than last year. We’ll just come out and play ball calm like we usually do.”

While addressing the team after the win, Showalter mentioned how no one gave the Raiders a chance to make it

back to the UNI-Dome this year.

“We lost a lot of linemen and a lot of linebackers. Nobody thought we could come back after losing that big of a senior class, but our senior class we have, we wanted to show people what we could do,” Dolec h e c k said. “Everybody doubting us gave us motivation to do it. Losing those Dolecheck guys was hard on us, but we found sophomores and juniors to step up and the seniors stepped up, too.”

having practice 65 miles away, the pool will be right outside her door as a dorm resident swimming on scholarship at University of Nebraska-Omaha.

“The pool is like 30 steps from where the dorms are,” Somers said, smiling.

Reflections

Being accepted in the Waukee program to pursue her swimming goals, without a program at her own school, proved to be a successful venture.

“I’m very happy with my decision,” Somers said. “I definitely ended up being a better swimmer than I originally thought I was going Somers to be. I kept setting goals for myself each year. After sophomore year when I placed in the top 10, I thought I could swim in college. I wanted to become a Division I swimmer. Wingate University in North Carolina was third in NCAA Division II last year and I thought maybe I could be part of a national championship there, but I fit in with UNO better and they are in their fourth year of Division I. I know a couple of their swimmers already, and I really liked their coaches.”

But, leaving her new set of friends at Waukee isn’t easy, either. She was thinking of that on the starting block for her final race late Saturday afternoon.

“I thought, this is it, finish strong!” she said. “It’s bittersweet, because we had great girls on the team this year and we’re all really close.

A teammate made me cry on the podium just by say-

ing, ‘I’m going to miss you!’

Coming into my senior year, I think some people looked to me as a leader. Definitely it was different than my freshman year, when I just tried to lay back a little bit and fit in and get along with everyone.”

Twigg said Somers was a valuable addition to her team in the pool and outside it.

“It’s been amazing to have Camryn with us,” the Warrior coach said. “She’s an outstanding student-athlete.

We couldn’t ask for a better person to come and be a part of our team. The girls love her. I love her. It’s bittersweet right now because I know she’s moving on to college athletics, which is great, but we’re going to miss her for sure.”

Somers has golfed at Creston, but gave up basketball after her freshman year, to continue training for swimming. But, now that she’s finished in high school swimming and reached her (scholarship) goal, she plans to be at the Creston girls basketball team’s first practice session today.

“Yep, no break, but I’m really looking forward to it,” Somers said. “Before, I just really felt I couldn’t take three months (of swimming) off and the physical training I needed to do, and still reach my goal. It was tough. I’m really happy to have a chance to be a part of the team this year.”
