Technology changing the Iowa Insurance way CCSD students learn Division warns against fraud

By ALLISON TRETINA CNA staff reporter atretina@crestonnews.com

Your “Iowa nice” isn’t so nice when you’ve kept a person on the other end of the phone to find out weeks later your bank statement is incorrect, or the stranger you invited into your home has convinced you your investments were in jeopardy when they were not in jeopardy until you opened your front door.

Fraud strips more than 7 million Americans of nearly $3 billion a year, according to the Iowa Insurance Division, which supervises insurance and investment business transacted in the state.

That’s why Craig

Goettsch, Iowa Insurance Division Education and Budget director, and Al Perales, Iowa Attorney General’s office investigator, have been making an effort over the last two years or so to educate Iowans about fraud and ways to prevent it.

At a luncheon Thursday at the Supertel Inn and Conference Center, they shared with Creston residents ways to question suspicious people and, more pressingly, prevent losing thousands of dollars, personal information and hours of time to fraudalent activity.

“Anybody can be a victim of fraud,” Perales said.

The world is changing and so is the way lessons are being taught in the classroom.

Technology is infiltrating its way into education, so Creston Community School District has made it an emphasis to incorporate more technology into the classroom.

That emphasis even extends to the art and music classrooms, where students are reaping the benefits of technological advances.

“The use of tech surely isn’t limited just to academic classrooms,” CCSD Superintendent Steve McDermott said.

“Our instructors really have done a nice job of discovering some different applications and ways they can use the

tech in classrooms.

(Technology) is a nice vehicle to access different McDermott activities and different lessons.”

Third-graders in Shari Walters’ art classes this week began learning how to use the Paper by FiftyThree app on iPads. Next week, Walters plans to assign a project using the app.

The iPads for the elementary art classroom were ordered two years ago. A group of fourth-graders used the iPads last year.

Walters said each grade level will complete at least one project this school year using the iPads.

“Right now, they’re getting familiar with it and trying out some different strategies or

techniques,” Walters said.

“Next week, we’ll start a project with it where they’ll draw and color and save and print it. I’m leaning toward having them draw and color certain things and print them, then they’ll be attached to another paper with more techniques on there, so it’ll be electronic and traditional.”

Walters said the students have enjoyed using the iPads so far.

The Paper by FiftyThree app allows students to use several different drawing and painting tools, scissors and color palettes within the app.

DUBUQUE (AP) — Health officials are puzzled by an outbreak of the mumps among Dubuque County students that has now climbed to 30 cases, which is more than one-third of all cases statewide.

According to Dubuque County Health Department executive director Patrice Lambert, the source of the outbreak has not yet been determined. Lambert says this is

the worst outbreak in 10 years in the county.

Dubuque Community School District’ health services coordinator, Rhonda Ramler, says officials haven’t seen a pattern to the students who have been affected.

The Telegraph Herald reports precautions are being taken to try and halt the spread of the disease, which can cause fever, headaches and swollen salivary glands.

School visit:

Sen. Tom Shipley (R-Iowa) paid a visit to Iowa School for the Deaf (ISD), located in Council Bluffs, Friday, Sept. 30, during the school’s annual homecoming. He met students from his district, including Aiden Gaines, left, and Nathan Stacey, both fourth-graders who are day students at the school.

Legislators who visited ISD learned about the school’s academic successes and challenges and took a brief tour of its 1930s-era high school, which is in need of updates.

“Scammers understand human nature. We would all like a lucky day, right? We would all like help with our problems.”

However, of those 7 million Americans who are victims of fraud, Iowans more than age 60 are the likeliest target.

A retired woman walked into Perales’ office Tuesday in tears, Perales said.

She was feeling lonely one day and began corresponding with a gentleman over the internet who promised her a future with him.

Thinking she would see him in person in their new life together, she gave him $30,000. That was $30,000 lost.

Loneliness, Perales said, is one the reasons the older demographic is a usual culprit to fraud. He also said older Iowans tend to have the time and money after

the high school level and beyond. Teacher Bailey Fry-Schnormeier uses an app on Microsoft Surface Pros at the high school level for art classes, while college courses and jobs are trending more toward the digital side of art.

“To be able to do things both ways when they graduate will really help them at the college level and at a business level, I think,” Walters said.

Mike Peters has seen technology make a big impact in the music department, as well.

Peters has been able to use an electronic metronome through a new sound system to help with marching band, while also being able to write his drill electronically.

“I’m able to actually design the visual part of the marching band, and I can

animate it and put it to music and show the kids,” Peters said. “They’re able to work through it. It makes it so much easier for them to learn the drill instead of just a dot on a page.”

Music students have also benefited from technology in the classroom through an app called Smart Music.

Smart Music listens to the students and creates an accompaniment. So, when students are practicing for their solo contests, they become accustomed to playing with accompaniment long before ever having a human playing on piano.

Jazz band students have been able to access YouTube to learn new styles of music and find backing tracks.

“When I started teaching, the idea of teaching improvisation this way was impossible,” Peters said. “Now, it’s right here on YouTube.

The world of information isn’t just for science and everything else. The world of music is at their fingertips.

It allows me to expose my students to some wonderful things that otherwise – without incredible cost or difficulty – they would have never been aware of.”

Staying up-to-date with new technology is one of the most important aspects of being a teacher in today’s world, Peters said.

“Society has changed and kids have changed,” he said.

“You’re not going to use a 19th-century way of teaching kids in the 21st century.

We as educators need to stay current with the way society is. These kids don’t communicate the way we communicated when we were in high school. So, they’re not learning the same way. You have to have these kids learn the same way they communicate.”

a life of working hard, they usually have a home phone and will pick it up, and they tend to be more trusting and slower to become angry with others.

Approximately 24 percent of residents in Creston are more than 60 years old, according to the United States Consensus Bureau 2014 community survey.

“Sometimes we can recover money,” Goettsch said. “But, a lot of times, the money is gone.”

The Iowa Insurance Division scrutinizes and oversees insurance and investment-related undertaking within the state and reports cases to the county attorney, U.S. attorney and general attorney’s offices. Educating the public is one of its fraud-prevention measures.

At the luncheon, Goettsch highlighted the common types of fraud schemes, including the Ponzie scheme, which promises high financial returns or dividends not available through tradition-

al frameworks; investment fraud, which uses false or fraudulent claims to solicit investments or loans, or providing for the purchase, use or trade of forged or counterfeit securities; and Internet fraud, which uses Internet services or software with Internet access to defraud victims or to otherwise take advantage of them.

Goettsch and Perales also gave general advice to the audience.

“It’s OK to not pick up the phone,” Perales said, adding that just answering the phone can provide scammers with an active phone number and name for future schemes.

In a slideshow presentation, Goettsch offered a set of questions one can ask before entering an investment deal with a stranger, and Perales walked through the psychological tactics scammers use to “hook” someone into making hasty decisions.

“Our goal is to get out of Des Moines and make peo-

ple aware that we are here as a resource,” Goettsch said. “So, if you have a problem with an insurance product or insurance seller or investment product or investment seller, call our office. It’s a toll-free number or you can go on our website and fill out a complaint sheet. We want to hear from people. That’s what a lot of our message is.”

Password hint is right on the number Dear Heloise: Anyone perusing the internet will inevitably have to create PASSWORDS, especially when creating accounts for certain commercial sites. Security questions are great, but sometimes the accuracy of the answer comes into question, as I’m often asking myself, “Did I type ‘Dr.’ or ‘Drive,’ or did I even put that word in?”

My husband and I use the same pass code when creating accounts we don’t really use often. Not banking or credit-card ones, of course. We just use his name or mine, with a combination of two sets of two-digit numbers that are meaningful only to us. – Terry L., via email Oh my, how many passwords do we have today?

The experts suggest trying to use a combination of letters and numbers. Don’t use “PASSWORD123”! I know people who do this! – Heloise

SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O. Box 795000 San Antonio, TX 782795000 Fax: 1-210-HELOISE Email: Heloise(at)Heloise.com BLUE PAINTER’S TAPE Dear Heloise: A while back, you printed a hint from a quilter about using paint-

Hints from Heloise er’s tape to mark rulers for cutting.

Could you please print a thank-you to that lady? I also quilt, and I decided to try that – WOW! What a difference it makes when measuring fabric.

No more mess-ups when cutting a certain size. The painter’s tape doesn’t leave a sticky mess on the ruler, and I have the exact measure I need. Thank you, thank you for an amazing tip. I have shared it with all my quilting friends.

I read your hints every day in the Ventura County Star in Fillmore, Calif. – Judi C., sent from my tablet

BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY Dear Heloise: “Better safe than sorry” is what I live by. Whenever I travel, I take photos with my cellphone of my travel documents. I send one set to the person caring for my home and pets, and one to a relative.

It’s like having a file of my tickets, passport, itinerary, hotels, etc., with me. I can access them, if necessary.

FAMILY CIRCUS®

by Bil Keane

LOCKHORNS® by Hoest & Reiner

CAKE DECORATING HINT Dear Heloise: If you need a revolving cake plate, use the Lazy Susan that may be on your kitchen table.

Place cardboard wrapped in tinfoil on top of the Lazy Susan, and then place the cake on that. Now you can rotate the circular platter instead of you or the foil base when decorating! – Baker in Boston

NO WASTE Dear Heloise: I use steel-wool pads to clean many items in my kitchen.

I’ve noticed that after just a few uses, they start to rust and crumble. Any hints on preserving them would be greatly appreciated. – Glen W., via email.

Glen, here are two hints for you. A reader, Victoria, said: “When you are through using one, rinse it lightly, BEETLE BAILEY® by Greg & Mort Walker squeeze and knead the pad a bit until it’s foamy. Then put it on a plastic lid or bag to dry.”

Another reader, Nancy B., offered this idea earlier this year: “I use my steelwool pads for about a year without them getting rusty. I put them in a plastic bag after each use and store them in the freezer.”

Nancy’s hint is a longtime, trusted hint from Heloise. No rust! – Heloise (c)2016 by King Features Syndicate Inc. BLONDIE® by Dean Young

COMMUNITY

Creston News Advertiser | Friday, November 18, 2016

Club news GFWC/ Bancroft History Assembly

1:30 p.m. Dec. 5 at the Creston Plaza Community Room, 1001 S. Sumner Ave. Reading lists are due at this meeting.

GFWC/Bancroft History Assembly met Nov. 7 in the D.V. Richardson room at Greater Regional Medical Center. All 14 members were present, which included six life members and eight active members. President JoAnn Nurnberg called the meeting to order and the Pledge of Allegiance was recited. The thought for the day was “The road to success isn’t on any map.�

The minutes were approved as read.

Beth Perry, corresponding secretary, read a note from Southwest District Director Peg Anderson. Anderson complimented all three Federated Clubs in hosting the district convention Oct. 14. Betty Wade, state president, wrote to congratulate the group for hosting a great convention for southwest Iowa.

Nurnberg asked members attending the Southwest District meeting to share one thing about the convention.

Highlights were the speaker who talked about the prison ministry, Women at the Well; everyone was impressed with Anderson, who represented the district nicely; and many enjoyed the entire convention.

Only one club had no representation.

Marisue announced the club received the 100 percent reading award.

The Club Collect was recited and the meeting was adjourned.

Avis enlightened members on “Immigration to Iowa� in keeping with the theme of the year, “Early Iowa History.�

Joan Chubick served at hostess.

The next meeting will be

Kent Dinner Club

Kent Dinner Club met Nov. 10 with 12 attending.

Next meeting will be 5:30 p.m. Dec. 8 at Pizza Ranch.

The Book Club

The Book Club met 12:30 p.m. Nov. 7 at the home of Dorthy McNaught, located north of Afton. October minutes were read and approved. Roll call was answered by the title of books read by members. Pat Pokorny presented an interesting book review of “Abominable� by Dan Simmons.

The story is set in 1924 around the race to the summit of the world’s tallest mountain, Mt. Everest. News of the disappearance of George Mallory and Sandy Irvine high up on the mountain reaches three climbers, a British poet and veteran of World War I, a French mountain guide and a young American. They arrange funding to try a climb from Lady Bromley, whose son also disappeared on Everest in 1924. She refuses to believe he is dead and pays the trio to bring him home. The climbers, along with the missing man’s cousin, find themselves pursued by someone or something and it becomes a matter of life or death high on the mountain.

What is the truth behind the 1924 disappearances? As they fight their way, they uncover a secret far more abominable than the mythical creature.

Following the meeting and review, refreshments were served and social time was enjoyed.

Recent books read by members include: Pokorny – “The Forgotten�

by David Baldsui and “The Abominable� by Dan Simmons Dorthy McNaught – “Fifty Miles from Tomorrow� by William L. Iggiagruk Hensley Velma Riegel – “The Dover Reader� by G. K. Chesterton, “One Simple Act (Discovering the Power of Generosity)�

Mountain Man’s Special Turkey Ingredients • 1 cup of apple juice • 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce • 1-Whole Turkey

• 5-Gallon Pale for Brining • Aluminum Foil • Brown Sugar

• Fresh Garlic • GMG Poultry Rub • Kosher Salt

Pellets - Texas | Fruitwood | Gold Blend

Let’s Get Started: 1) Thaw the turkey in the refrigerator. 2-5 days depending on the size of the bird. You can also thaw it in cold water in 8-12 hours. Remove the neck and the giblets from the bird’s cavities.

2) Put the turkey in the pan or pail and then add enough water to completely cover it.

3) Remove the turkey.

4) Add enough kosher salt to the water until a raw egg just seems buoyant. Stir. Add 3 tablespoons of brown sugar or molasses and 5 tablespoons of GMG Poultry Rub. 5) Use a garlic press or mash several cloves of garlic with the side of a butcher’s knife and add to the brine. Stir thoroughly.

6) Brine the turkey overnight. Make sure no part of the turkey is out of the water.

7) Remove the turkey and pat dry with paper towels.

8) Push a wooden spoon underneath the skin all the way around the bird, top and bottom, to break the skin away from the esh.

9) Rub reasonable amounts of Green Mountain Poultry Rub on the esh with your hands between the skin and the meat. Do this top and bottom – wherever you can reach.

10) Place the turkey, breast side down, in a disposable aluminum pan.

11) Turn the grill on and set it to 185°. When that temperature stabilizes, put the turkey in the grill.

12) Make a mixture of 1 cup of apple juice and 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce. Put this in a small spray bottle.

13) Spritz (spray) the turkey about once per hour. Make sure that you spritz thoroughly, especially inside the bird’s cavities.

14) Cook the turkey for about 8 hours, regardless of the size of the bird.

15) After 8 hours, turn the bird over. Turn the grill up to 275°.

16) Push a metal meat thermometer into the thickest part of the breast, about 3/4� away from the bone. Leave the thermometer in.

17) Continue to cook for about 10-12 minutes per pound until the temperature on the meat thermometer reaches 160°. If the skin becomes browner than you like during this period, you can cover the breast with aluminum foil. Remove the turkey from the grill, cover it completely with foil, and let it rest for 20-30 minutes, during which time the temperature will continue to rise to 165°.

18) Carve your turkey. Overeat. Watch football. Repeat

This Thanksgiving, law enforcement agencies will ramp up patrols and be on the lookout for seatbelt violations. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) during the 2014 Thanksgiving holiday, 341 vehicle occupants were killed nationwide in traffic crashes. Fifty percent of those fatalities were not wearing seatbelts. In Iowa, five people were killed over the 2015 holiday.

NHTSA reports wearing a seatbelt can reduce the risk of a fatal injury by 45 percent. Ejection from a vehicle is one of the most dangerous incidents that can happen to a person in a crash. Eighty

percent of passenger vehicle occupants totally ejected from vehicles were killed; only 1 percent of the belted occupants were totally ejected during a crash.

Who is more likely to not wear a seatbelt? In fatal crashes, males are more likely to be unbuckled (53 percent) than females (40 percent) and drivers ages 13 to 15 and 25 to 34 accounted for 59 percent of the fatalities in 2014, according to NHTSA. Wearing a seatbelt is the single most effective way to save a life and the lives of loved ones in the event of a crash. Failing to buckle up is dangerous and against the law.

Nebraska resident sentenced for sex offender violation in Iowa COUNCIL BLUFFS — Kenneth J. Heavlow Jr., 34, of Douglas County, Nebraska, was sentenced Thursday to 24 months in prison for failure to register as a sex offender in the state of Iowa, said United States Attorney Kevin E. VanderSchel.

Heavlow was sentenced

by U.S. District Court Chief Judge John A. Jarvey and will also be required to have five years of supervised release.

According to a press release, Heavlow entered a guilty plea Aug. 11 for failure to register as a sex of-

fender in Iowa. Heavlow was required to register as a result of a 2008 conviction for attempted child enticement in Sarpy County, Nebraska.

An investigation revealed Heavlow moved from a residence in Omaha, Nebraska, and was residing in Council Bluffs under a false name to avoid registering in Iowa.

The investigation was conducted by the United States Marshal Service and the case prosecuted by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Iowa.

MASON CITY — Cerro Gordo County health officials are revoking the license of a Mason City motel after receiving complaints about mold as well as electrical and plumbing problems.

Motel manager Robin Joines says a health report after a recent inspection was exaggerated. According to Joines, the motel owners plan to fight the city’s decision to revoke its license.

The Globe Gazette reports that guests have until Dec. 1 to leave.

Alliant Energy Grant valued at $8,000 awarded to Creston FFA Chapter The Creston FFA Chapter and Southwestern Community College Agriculture Department partnered to plant 35 deciduous trees and 11 evergreens valued at $8,000 during the second week of October.

The trees were planted on the SWCC and Creston Community School campuses, Harmony Cemetery and on the property of High Lakes Gun Club. “The beauty these tree plantings will have on our community will be something future generations will come to appreciate,�

Creston FFA Adviser Kelsey Bailey said.

Creston FFA has utilized the Alliant Energy Trees Forever grant since 1992 to secure 37 grants which have resulted in the planting of 2,018 deciduous and 775 evergreen trees worth $305,588. In all, 3,143 deciduous trees, 731 evergreen trees and 786 shrubs valued at $592,575 have been planted in 124 landscaping projects throughout the Creston community involving a variety off grant resources. This past year saw two Alliant “Trees Forever� grants plant 103 trees valued at $18,000.

The local FFA chapter

has utilized the many tree planting projects to build on its success in the State FFA Community Environment Award competition on the state level. The Creston FFA Chapter has been recognized on the state level for 12 consecutive years winning competitions in community development, economic development or environmental development 10 times since the awards inception in 2004. “Working with Alliant Energy and their ‘Trees Forever’ program has been a great opportunity to increase tree diversity in our community,� said Creston FFA President Mattie Wheeler. “Not to forget the hands-on learning that takes place when planting the trees.�

Galen Zumbach, who served as the Creston FFA adviser from 1977 to 2010, and currently is an adjunct professor at SWCC, has submitted another “Trees Forever� grant valued at $10,000 for planting in the spring of 2017. The grant will see plantings at the Creston school campuses, High Lakes Gun Club and Crestmoor Golf Club. Trees Forever will notify the successful grant applicants by Jan. 15.

THE NUMBERS GAME

52

Wins for Pella in its last 53 games.

The Dutch won their third consecutive Class 3A title Thursday with a 28-18 win over Webster City at the UNIDome in Cedar Falls.

PREP

FOOTBALL Pella beats Webster City for third state title CEDAR FALLS (AP) — Nick Finney passed for two touchdowns and ran for another and Pella beat Webster City 28-18 on Thursd a y night to win i t s third consecutive Class 3A state championship.

Donovan Holterhaus caught both scoring passes and finished with a championship-game record 10 receptions for 181 yards.

Pella (13-0) notched its 41st consecutive victory and became the fourth 3A team to win three straight titles.

Robert Frederiksen rushed for 182 yards and a touchdown out of Webster City’s oldschool single-wing offense. But the Lynx (11-2) couldn’t quite match Pella’s versatility — or keep the ball away from Holterhaus.

Finney finished 15 of 22 for 263 yards and one interception. He added 66 yards rushing on 22 carries, including a 3-yard touchdown run on the first play of the fourth quarter for a 21-10 lead.

Just before that touchdown, Pella went for it on fourth-and-23 from the Webster City 29 and Finney hit Julian Viersen for 26 yards.

Webster City responded with its biggest play of the night -- a 64-yard kickoff return by Zane Williams to the Pella 34. Five plays later, 5-foot5 Payton Kannuan shook off two tacklers on a nifty 24-yard touchdown run and Frederiksen ran for a 2-point conversion, drawing the Lynx to 21-18 with 9:14 left.

But Finney was far from finished. He led a snappy 78-yard scoring drive that ended with his 29-yard toss to Holterhaus for the game-clinching touchdown.

Finney also hooked up with Holterhaus on an 18-yard TD pass that gave the Dutch a 14-3 halftime lead.

His only mistake of the night, a screen pass that he threw right to Webster City’s Cole Briese, set up Frederiksen’s 17-yard touchdown run, which cut the lead to 14-10.

Pella matched a championship feat accomplished twice by Harlan (1982-84 and 2003-05) and once by Decorah (1987-89).

The Little Dutch have won 52 of their last 53 games.

Developing players on and off the field ■

Creston native Wardenburg makes a difference coaching at Iowa Western

By RYAN KRONBERG CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

COUNCIL BLUFFS — From the outside looking in, it might appear that Creston native Dane Wardenburg has a pretty simple job.

He’s the offensive line coach and run game coordinator for the perennial junior college power Iowa Western Community College.

Dig a little deeper and you find his role as a top assistant for Scott Strohmeier is more complex than just game planning and coaching on Saturdays.

Yet it’s a job the former

Panther enjoys greatly.

I o w a Western recently concluded the regular season Wardenburg at 6-5. The Reivers will play Holmes Community College in the Graphic Edge Bowl on Dec. 4 at the UNI-Dome in Cedar Falls.

“It’s a lot busier than people think,” Wardenburg said after the Reivers game against Ellsworth Community College on Nov. 5 in Council Bluffs. “The junior college game always bring in some certain aspects that

other divisions don’t have.”

Wardenburg and the staff work to keep players on task in the classroom and on the field.

“We’re trying to get our guys ready, trying to stay on top of them,” Wardenburg said. “There’s a reason why 90 percent of our guys are where they are. It’s staying on top of those guys.”

One area Reivers coaches work hard at is making sure his players are receiving attention from other college coaches, whether at the NAIA, Division III, Division II or Division I levels.

“That’s something people probably don’t fully understand is that next level part where we have to get our

guys looked at,” Wardenburg said.

On this Saturday, Iowa State coach Matt Campbell was in attendance, looking at players that could make

an impact in Ames.

It’s a constant stream of coaches coming through Council Bluffs to look at players.

“Every day, there’s two to three coaches from all over the country that stop in and want to look at our guys,” Wardenburg said.

It all adds up to busy days in the office.

“It’s a full day every day,” Wardenburg said.

Wardenburg has his usual tasks such as preparing his group of linemen for the game each Saturday.

“We have to make sure we’re good in the run, protecting the quarterback,” IWCC | 2S

Creston native and current Iowa Western Community College assistant coach Dane Wardenburg talks with his group of offensive lineman during the Reivers’ game against Ellsworth Community College on Nov. 5 in Council Bluffs. Wardenburg is the offensive line coach and run game coordinator for the perennial junior college power.

IWCC: CONT. FROM | 1S

Wardenburg said. “We’re setting up blocking schemes and protections.”

Wardenburg gives his imput for the offense, along with passing game coordinator Mike Minikwu. Both the give the game plan to Strohmeier, who puts it all together.

“Scott and I collaborate to make sure it’s how you like it. We get it down on paper.”

Wardenburg carries a large sheet filled with plays on game day.

While the list looks long and complicated, Wardenburg indicated otherwise.

“It always looks a lot more than it is.”

This year’s group has been a challenge, as a ma-

jority of them are freshmen.

Their talent has started to shine late in the season.

“They’re all really talented,” Wardenburg said. “All of those kids will have a chance to go play at the next level.”

Going forward, the group still has plenty of room to grow.

“There’s always a huge jump,” Wardenburg said.

“We’re excited about the group we’ve got. It’s going to be a huge jump from this year to next year. They’ll have a whole offseason of nothing but football.

“That’ll be good for those guys.”

Making the bowl game gives the Reivers needed extra practice time, something Wardenburg learned firsthand as a player at Northwest Missouri State.

“That’s the big thing

about making sure you get to a bowl game,” Wardenburg said. “One big thing of why Northwest has done so well is they make the playoffs every year. That’s 15 extra practices. We’re the same way. We want to make sure we get to the postseason. That gives us an extra three weeks of practice.

That gets our young guys extra work, extra practice time. Those things are huge for us.”

Recruiting Iowa players to the college level means a big jump in competition for most.

But what Wardenburg sees from Iowa-bred players is a tenacity and a drive to excel.

“One thing about Iowa kids is there’s a large learning curve,” Wardenburg said. “They get better really quickly.”

For most Iowa-based athletes, they’ve played more than just football in high school.

Once they arrive on campus in Council Bluffs, it’s almost always focusing on football.

“They’ve never done football year round,” Wardenburg said. “They’ve never done football day-in, dayout, six-seven hours a day, compared to just two and a half hours at the end of the day.”

Wardenburg’s competitive drive shows in his players.

“The level of play, expecting to win and playing with guys that can physically do what you ask them to do,” Wardenburg said. “If I wasn’t competitive, if we weren’t expecting to win, I wouldn’t like it. I’m that kind of a guy.”

As the game ended, and the players and coaches celebrate winning the NJCAA Region XI title for the seventh straight season, Wardenburg and the coaches soaked up the win.

“Winning these games against these guys and winning the region is always huge,” Wardenburg said.

“It’s a good win. We’re happy.”

For Wardenburg, the wining is nice, but it’s away from the field where he takes the most joy in.

“I like interacting with the young guys, trying to help them mature and learn not just about football,” Wardenburg said. “It’s not only just football, it’s all aspects of being around young men and watching them grow up and trying to help the do something to help them get better every day.”

Northern Iowa overwhelms Arizona State, 82-63 and Haldeman leading the way from 3-point range and Koch unmatched in the paint, Northern Iowa led by as many as 10 points in the first half and 20 points in the second half.

“I’m just going out there and doing everything I can for the team whether that’s getting the ball to somebody who is wide open or going to get an extra possession on offense or knocking down an open 3,” said Morgan, the Preseason Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year. “I’m just trying to do everything I can to help the team win.”

The Panthers shot 51 percent from the field and with Morgan and Haldeman combining to convert nine 3-pointers.

ASU coach Bobby Hurley was disappointed that his team seemed a step slow defensively and out of synch offensively against its toughest opponent so far this season.

“It was out of character with how we’ve playing and practicing,” he said. “We didn’t really move the ball well at all and credit Northern Iowa with how to share the ball and the shot making.”

BIG PICTURE Northern Iowa: In their first real test of the season, the Panthers proved they can be a force in the Missouri Valley Conference and perhaps on the national scene. Morgan, the preseason MVC Player of the Year, and Haldeman didn’t

Prep football: GladbrookReinbeck wins Class A title Lott, a junior, completed 11 of 14 passes for 139 yards without an interception, while Knaack finished with four catches for 66 yards.

Vaske caught two touchdown passes for Garrigan, the first coming on fourth-and-16 from the Gladbrook-Reinbeck 24. His defender fell, Vaske leaped to make the catch and fell into the end zone to give the Golden Bears a 13-0 lead.

Garrigan, the 1985 Class 2A champion, had gone up 7-0 when Capesius bolted through a big hole and sped 24 yards for a touchdown.

That came one play after he hooked up with Gibson Behr on a screen pass that covered 53 yards.

Parker Brown slipped around the left end from 9 yards out for Gladbrook-Reinbeck’s first touchdown, and Mason Skovgard’s fumble recovery set up Lott’s 10-yard TD run, which put the Rebels ahead 14-13 at halftime.

The last school to repeat in Class A had been Lake City Southern Cal in 2008 and 2009.

Seton Hall downs Iowa IOWA CITY (AP) — Seton Hall no longer has star Isaiah Whitehead to lean on.

The Pirates have depth and balance though — and that was enough for them to pass their first road test of 2016-17.

Myles Powell scored 26 points off the bench, Desi Rodriguez had 25 and Seton Hall beat Iowa 91-83 on Thursday night.

Khadeen Carrington added 20 points for the Pirates (3-0), who shot 51 percent from the floor with eight 3s and outscored the Hawkeyes 50-24 in the paint.

“Our team will be much more balanced this year,” said Seton Hall coach Kevin Willard after Whitehead left for the NBA. Powell buried a 3 and followed by a layup to put Seton Hall up 82-74 with 3:15 to go — and then drilled another long 3 to make it a 10-point game a minute later. Rodriguez followed with a 3 that sent the fans to the exits.

Iowa made a few late 3s to make it close before falling for the first time in 2016-17.

Oleka never came close to figuring out how to defend Koch in the post.

CONFIDENT PANTHER Koch may have lacked some confidence last season, but he played like he was the best player on the

floor Thursday against the Sun Devils.

He consistently demanded the ball in the paint against Oleka and he made good. Koch was 6 for 7 in the paint for 14 points and could have scored much more because ASU never figured

out how to stop him.

CEDAR FALLS (AP) — Hunter Lott passed for one touchdown, ran for another and made a key defensive stop late in the game, leading Gladbrook-Reinbeck past Algona Bishop Garrigan 20-19 Thursday for its second straight Class A state championship.

Gladbrook-Reinbeck (13-0) rallied from a 13-0 deficit to win its 23rd straight game and become just the fourth school to repeat in the smallest of the 11-player classes.

Lott floated a perfectly thrown pass to Matt Johannsen for a 24-yard touchdown with 6:29 left to put the Rebels ahead, then helped secure the victory when he raced up from his defensive back position to stop Garrigan’s Grant Arndorfer short of a first down on fourthand-2 near midfield.

The Rebels ran out the final 2:44, helped by Lott’s 27yard pass to Erik Knaack on a fourth-and-8 play.

Garrigan (12-1) took a 19-14 lead Brad Capesius’ 9-yard TD pass to Joel Vaske with 9:56 remaining, but couldn’t hold on.

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (AP) — Jeremy Morgan plays guard for the Northern Iowa Panthers, but that seems almost too limiting.

The senior does a little bit of everything for the Panthers.

That much was obvious on Thursday night when Morgan scored 20 points, grabbed 12 rebounds and gave four assists — all game highs — in leading Northern Iowa to an impressive 82-63 win over Arizona State in the opening round of the Tire Pros Invitational.

“The best part of his game is his versatility,” said Northern Iowa coach Ben Jacobson, whose team improved to 2-0 on the season. “Usually when that’s the word used by your coach or what people see is the versatility then they say,’ OK, he must not be great at anything.’

But he is pretty good at a lot of things. I use the term versatility as high praise.”

The Panthers got outstanding performances from Spencer Haldeman, Klint Carlson and Bennett Koch but it was Morgan who served as the facilitator of their production. That often meant him finding Haldeman on the perimeter or Koch flashing in the paint or ASU paid so much attention to Morgan that at least one of his teammates was left open.

What it all led to was a dominant performance by the Panthers over their Pac12 opponent. With Morgan

Don Bosco top Harris-Lake Park for 8-Player Title down and a 12-0 lead, one play after Harris-Lake Park gave up the ball on downs.

Don Bosco then answered every time the Wolves pulled to within one score.

After Harris-Lake Park drew to 18-14 when fullback Keegan Carpenter slipped out of the backfield to catch a 5-yard pass from Perkins, Don Bosco responded with a TD pass of its own.

Caleb Rigdon caught Brandon Bagby’s short pass on a simple crossing route, turned the corner and outran the pursuit on a 48-yard scoring play, making it 24-14 at the half.

The Wolves seemed to get some momentum with their touchdown on the opening drive of the second half, but then came the turnovers.

Along with the three interceptions — one of them in the end zone to thwart a good drive — Harris-Lake Park lost the ball on a fumbled snap, a muffed punt and a fumble on a kickoff return.

Don Bosco also won the eight-player championship in 2013 and finished second in 2012 and last year.

IOWA:

the Big Ten, using 11 players in the first half alone. But it looks like Jok has found a more than capable sidekick in Cook, who can seemingly do everything but knock down free throws.

NOT-SO FREE THROWS Cook was a mess at the free-throw line, going just 5 of 12. But neither team could covert its freebies, as Seton Hall was 17 of 31 and Iowa was 19 of 32.

SMOKE SHOW Iowa brought out two sets of pyrotechnics during its player introductions. The smoke lingered in the air for roughly half of the first half. But Iowa’s other new wrinkles, including a new court, lighting and a massive new scoreboard over center court, has vastly improved the game-day experience at Carver-Hawkeye Arena — which had begun to show its age until recent renovations.

UP NEXT Iowa gets another cupcake in Texas-Rio Grande Valley on Sunday. But the Hawkeyes will face No. 8 Virginia next Friday in Florida.

Senior Peter Jok had 30 points and 11 rebounds for his first career double-double, and freshman Tyler Cook scored a career-high 24 points for the Hawkeyes (2-1).

“I would have liked to have seen us play better defense over the duration, especially in the second half. We tried defenses, we changed defenses; press, we went to zone. We just didn’t perform to the level that’s necessary,” Iowa coach Fran McCaffery said.

BIG PICTURE Seton Hall: The Pirates should be a factor in the Big East. They started five upperclassmen who were unfazed by their first road game — although a 9 p.m.

ET tip-off time on a week night kept the crowd down a bit. Seton Hall forced Iowa to commit 17 turnovers.

Iowa: Win or lose, a matchup against a tough, veteran team halfway through November was exactly what the Hawkeyes needed. McCaffery is still trying to find a rotation that can win in

CEDAR FALLS (AP) — Austin Svoboda scored four touchdowns, the defense forced seven turnovers and Gilbertville Don Bosco beat Harris-Lake Park 48-21 on Thursday to win the eight-player state championship.

Svoboda broke loose on TD runs of 66, 47 and 38 yards to highlight his big day, which he finished with 180 yards in 15 carries.

Austin Hellman added a 62-yard touchdown run for the Dons (12-1), who appeared in their fourth title game since 2012 and won their second championship.

Harris-Lake Park (12-1) trailed just 24-21 after Bryce Perkins’ 9-yard touchdown pass to Kyle Jordan early in the third quarter, then was undone by three fumbles and three interceptions.

Brock Tome returned the last interception 34 yards for the game’s final touchdown.

Perkins set championship game records for completions and attempts, hitting on 23 of 42 passes for 258 yards, two touchdowns and the three interceptions.

Svoboda, a solidly built 6-foot-2, 205-pound junior, dashed 66 yards for a touch-
