Southern Prairie YMCA has officially launched its “Vision 2020” campaign, which seeks to improve local Y offerings by the year 2020.

To kick off the campaign, staff and board members, as well as people in the community, attended the Vision 2020 open house Monday evening at the Y. Dr. Gabe Carroll, YMCA board member, introduced Dr. Bill Ralston, the keynote speaker. Chris Eaton, YMCA board president, provided closing remarks.

The Vision 2020 open house, which ties in with worldwide “Giving Tuesday” on Nov. 29, highlighted the ways the Y is seeking to impact the community and plans for the future.

“It’s our annual giving campaign, where we encourage our members and our donors to consider the YMCA their charity of choice and think about the Y in their year-end giving,” said Raq u e l Linch, YMCA office m a n a g - Linch

er. “We’re also celebrating the positive impacts the Y has in our community in so many ways with our programming. We’re also looking ahead to the future on how we can continue to serve the community and looking ahead at some potentially exciting projects.”

Keith Worland, YMCA executive director, said the current financial goal is to raise $50,000. But, as goals for outreach increase, that amount may increase.

“The goals of youth development, healthy living and social responsibility are nationally held by the YMCA as a part of our mission ... so, when we’re

making goals (locally) and thinking about what we want to do for the future, we try to wrap them all into those,” Worland said.

“How can we impact our community through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility?”

Youth development Regarding youth development, local Y staff recognize the issue of many children in Creston being left home alone after school and during the summer.

Editor’s note: This is part of Divided America, AP’s ongoing exploration of the economic, social and political divisions in American society.

NEW YORK (AP) — The American dream of a blissful retirement, free of financial worries, is dying.

Most U.S. households are heading for a worse lifestyle in retirement than they had while they were working, because they simply aren’t saving enough, experts say.

Thirty-five percent of households in their prime earning years or later have nothing saved in a retirement account and no access to a traditional pension, according to an AP analysis of savings data from the Federal Reserve.

Among households that do have some savings, the typical amount is $73,200.

That’s about 15 months of the median household’s income.

One group doesn’t have to worry as much: the richest 10 percent of households.

They typically have more than $413,000 in a retirement account, according to the analysis of the Fed’s latest data, which is from 2013.

The rest of us look a lot more like Nancy Harvey, a 54-year-old child-care center owner in Oakland, California, who has less than $2,000 saved. Her plan, as of now, is to continue with real-estate classes in hopes that it can provide a second job.

“I HAVE to work and pray and hope my health continues to remain good so that I can continue to work.”

Child-care center owner

“I have to work and pray and hope my health continues to remain good so that I can continue to work,” she says. “I still have a mortgage and all the insurance that goes along with that, and I have to pay payroll for my employees, which is really important to me. I can honestly say I’m frightened about the future.”

Harvey isn’t alone, as the gap widens between the few households who don’t have to worry about a comfortable retirement and everyone else. The anxiety even stretches across political affiliations. Nearly equivalent percentages of Democrats and Republicans say they’re not managing very well in retirement planning, a recent survey from Lincoln Financial found.

The looming crisis is the result of a system that’s increasingly put workers in charge of saving for and managing their own retirement. Because the U.S. households at the top have reaped most of the income RETIRE | 2A

Dow tops 19,000 as retailers School bus lead stocks to new records driver charged NEW YORK (AP) — The Dow Jones industrial average crossed 19,000 for the first time as the stock market extended its reach further into record territory. The gains came a day after four major market indexes closed at all-times highs at the same time, something that hadn’t happened since 1999.

Retailers are surging as discount store chains Dollar Tree and Burlington Stores raising their forecasts. Food producers Campbell Soup and Hormel are climbing after they reported strong quarterly results.

Keeping score: The Dow was up 24 points, or 0.1 percent, to 18,892 as of 10:52 a.m. Earlier it went as high as 19,014. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index picked up

2 points, or 0.1 percent, to 2,200. The Nasdaq composite gained 12 points, or 0.2 percent, to 5,381. The Russell 2000 index, which tracks smaller companies, rose 0.4 percent. It’s setting records as well and is trading higher for the 13th day in a row.

Bargain hunting: Shoppers continued to flock to discount stores, which has helped those retailers while hurting other brands. Dollar Tree raised its profit and sales forecasts after the chain reported solid results in the third quarter. Burlington Stores also raised its outlook after it posted a larger profit than analysts expected. Dollar Tree leaped $8.38, or 10.2 percent, to $90.37 and Burlington Stores added $9.88, or 13.3 percent, to $84.06.

Competitor Dollar General gained $3.01, or 3.9 percent, to $79.75.

Shining: Jeweler Signet raised its outlook and its stock picked up $5.61, or 6.3 percent, to $94.49. With Signet and other retailers like Urban Outfitters and Target making big gains, consumer stocks rose to all-time highs.

Snack time: Campbell Soup’s profit in its fiscal first quarter was better than expected thanks to lower expenses and better sales of snacks like Pepperidge Farm.

Hormel, the maker of Spam, reported better results from its refrigerated foods business and its Jennie-O turkey unit. Hormel also gave solid guidance for the current fiscal year. Campbell Soup gained $1.77, or 3.2 percent,

in deadly crash CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.

(AP) — A school bus driver who authorities say was speeding along a narrow, winding Tennessee road when he wrapped his vehicle around a tree was arrested and charged with vehicular homicide in the deaths of five children.

Calling the Monday afternoon crash “every public safety professional’s worst nightmare,” Chattanooga Police Chief Fred Fletcher told an overnight news conference that 24-year-old bus driver Johnthony Walker was also charged with reckless driving and reckless endangerment.

Investigators were looking at speed “very, very strongly” as a factor in the crash,

Fletcher said earlier. An arrest affidavit posted online by Chattanooga station WTVC says Walker was driving well above the posted 30 mph speed limit on a narrow, winding road when he lost control of the bus. His bond was set at $107,500, according to the affidavit.

Walker is scheduled to appear in court on Nov. 29, the Times Free Press of Chattanooga reported.

Police said overnight that five children were killed in the crash. Earlier Monday, Hamilton County District Attorney Neal Pinkston told news outlets the crash killed six, but police later said it was five.

gains over the last decade — and because they have disproportionately more access to retirement plans to begin with — experts say the gap in retirement savings is only growing wider. They’re expecting to see more elderly Americans working longer, moving in with their kids and tapping assistance programs.

“Only the privileged have access to a secure retirement,” says Teresa Ghilarducci, a labor economist at the New School for Social Research.

The income divide It’s easier to save when you’re making more money, and the vast majority of the income gains have gone to the top in recent years.

The top 10 percent of U.S. households made more than $162,180 last year, up 6 percent from a decade earlier after adjusting for inflation.

For middle-income Americans, incomes have barely stayed ahead of inflation.

Lower-income households are making less than a decade ago.

The benefit of making more money goes beyond having more to save. Higher-income households also get a bigger after-tax benefit from putting money into a 401(k) or another tax-advantaged account.

With traditional pensions increasingly becoming extinct, it’s grown even more important for Americans to save. Meanwhile, Social Security — the last line of defense for many retirement plans — is at risk of having enough money to pay only 79 percent of benefits, starting in 2034.

Access to plans The death of the traditional pension means the burden is on us to save, and that’s why access to 401(k) and other retirement plans is so important.

Most lower-income house-

holds will save when they have access to a retirement plan. The problem is that most don’t get the opportunity.

Eighty percent of high-income working households have access to a 401(k) or similar defined-contribution plan, according to the U.S. Government Accountability Office. For low-income working households, it’s just 35 percent.

The low retirement balances mean the majority of households — 52 percent — are at risk of having to cut their spending by more than 10 percent after entering retirement, according to the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College.

“For an upper-middle class person, not being able to maintain their standard of living means fewer trips,” says Alicia Munnell, the center’s director. “But for lower-income people, it can really mean depriving themselves.”

Possible solutions To help close the gap, states are trying their own measures. California recently passed a law requiring employers to automatically enroll their workers in a state-run program and deduct money from each paycheck.

Experts prefer a broader fix from the federal government but call the state programs an encouraging step. In the meantime, many workers are simply working longer.

David Tucker is 74 and still waking at 1:15 each morning to get to his job as a skycap at Reagan National Airport outside Washington, D.C. He says he may consider retiring next year or cutting down to a few days per week.

And what would he look forward to in retirement?

“I would like to feel what it’s like to wake up and not go to work,” he says. “For a while, that’s all I would like to do. I wouldn’t worry about anything else.”

Missouri trooper’s trial set in handcuffed man’s death VERSAILLES, Mo. (AP) — A Missouri state trooper charged in the death of an Iowa man who drowned while in his custody is scheduled for trial this summer.

The Kansas City Star reports a July 10 trial was set Monday for Trooper Anthony Piercy. He is charged with involuntary manslaughter in the death of Brandon Ellingson at the Lake of the Ozarks

in May 2014. The trial will be in Morgan County.

The new trial date comes one week after the state of Missouri agreed to pay $9 million to Ellingson’s family. Piercy had pulled over the 20-year-old Ellingson on suspicion of boating while intoxicated. At some point, Ellingson fell into the lake while wearing handcuffs and an improperly secured life vest.

single-parent households and 25 percent of the families live in poverty.

Seeing that several families in the community need an affordable and safe place for their children to stay when they aren’t in school, the Y has sought to help meet that need by providing an after-school program and summer camp. These programs offer children homework help, professional role models, scholarships to families in need, STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) activities, physical activities and healthy snacks.

“We’ve really just scratched the surface with STEM,” Worland said. “I think there is a real need in our community for more STEM activities. ...

When we talk about the op- Worland portunity for elementary and middle school students to get their hands on this technology and learn, I think we’ve just started opening the door for that at the Y. Hopefully by 2020, we’ll be in a much better place with that and able to offer more resources.”

For those who donate, $2,500 will give four children a safe, educational place to spend the day during the summer, $1,000 will provide a scholarship for a student to attend the Y’s after-school program and $500 will allow 16 children to participate in a

That’s the industrial sector, which includes companies that make aircraft and engines, run railroads, and make other equipment. That index is up 6 percent since the election, about twice as much as the broader market. Aerospace and defense companies including Boeing, Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman were trading around record highs before the election and have continued to rise since then.

“We have financial goals in order to be able to provide these services and opportunities to impact people in our community,” Linch said.

Healthy living Under the goal of healthy living, Y staff see a “serious health crisis” locally. The Y reports Union County has the highest rate of obesity in the state at 37 percent, and many are battling preventable chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease and high blood pressure.

In an effort to combat preventable health issues, the Y seeks to keep both adults and children physically active.

A few programs the local Y offers with this goal in mind are Panther Pride, a free before-school fitness program open to elementary students; financial assistance for membership; Healthy Kids Day, General Dynamics advanced 87 cents to $169.30.

Thirsty: Dr. Pepper Snapple Group said it will buy fruit drink maker Bai Brands for $1.7 billion. Bai Brands markets its drinks as having fewer calories than other brands and doesn’t use artificial sweeteners. Dr. Pepper Snapple stock picked up $1.59, or 1.9 percent, to $86.84 Oil: Benchmark U.S. crude dipped 25 cents to $47.99 a barrel in New York. Brent crude, the international standard, rose 8 cents to $48.98.

The price of oil rose about 4 percent Monday.

Currencies: The dollar was little changed. It slipped Monday but has been trading around 13-year highs.

It rose to 111.30 yen from 111.07 yen. The euro fell to $1.0595 from $1.0612.

For those who donate, $5,000 will provide 20 families scholarships the Y.

Social responsibility Regarding the social responsibility goal, Y staff notice many people in the community feeling isolated and in need of additional support.

In light of this, the Y’s goal is to “become a second family to many people in our community.” A few offerings include a Parkinson’s class and support group, sensory swim lessons designed for children with special needs, classes for active older adults, as well as family fun nights and other social gatherings.

“We started family fun night this year, but we’d also like to expand that a little bit and expand our after-school program and summer-camp outreach.”

The goal is to improve the local Y’s offerings moving forward, and donations allow for those improvements, Worland said.

OPINION

Creston News Advertiser | Tuesday, November 22, 2016

All about the Hamiltons HOLLYWOOD – God bless America, and how’s everybody?

Melania Trump let it be known Sunday that she will live in Manhattan with their son Barron while Donald lives in the White House. Bill Clinton can’t stand it. Donald Trump has everything Clinton ever wanted – $10 billion, the Oval Office and a supermodel wife who lives out of town.

Donald Trump’s election was met by street demonstrations and school walkouts Friday in Los Angeles, Chicago and New York City. Protesters assert that Donald Trump is going to take away women’s rights, enslave minorities and kill gays. So it sounds like we finally have a Muslim president.

The National Retail Federation predicted a huge turnout of holiday shoppers on Thanksgiving Day when the big box stores throw open their doors. There are real shopping bargains out

there if you search for them. The Clinton Foundation is offering 95 percent off on all speaking fees.

The New York Times publisher vowed they’ll start reporting the news straight without liberal bias. An optimist sees a glass as half-full, a pessimist sees the glass as half-empty. A journalist for the New York Times sees the glass as symptomatic of the institutional racism in American society.

Cher told reporters she still can’t decide to which country she’s going to emigrate after Donald Trump’s victory last week. She’s definitely going somewhere. So far, the best guess is China, which would cut

out the middleman, seeing how 80 percent of Cher’s body parts are manufactured there.

The Broadway cast of “Hamilton” lectured audience member Mike Pence during the curtain call when the VP came to see the show. Everyone was mortified.

It wasn’t as awkward as the night the entire cast of “Cats” ran for their lives because they thought Trump was going to grab them one by one.

Indiana Governor and Vice president-elect Mike Pence was badgered from the stage by the cast of “Hamilton” Friday. It’s a security issue. When a Republican vice president can’t see a Broadway play about the Founding Fathers without being attacked by a runaway slave, then none of us are safe.

Donald Trump took to Twitter Sunday to bawl out the cast of “Hamliton” for lecturing Trump’s Vice President Mike Pence at the curtain call. The

I really liked council person Marsha Wilson’s idea on making the snow ordinance a year round item. Some streets are a mess, parking on both sides of the street. I know of an instance when we were doing curbside garbage pick-up, the garbage truck couldn’t get down the street, so no garbage pick-up that day.

Then there’s the cars that park so close to people’s driveways that the residents have to squeeze through and drive on their grass to get to their driveway. You have the snow ordinance now, but as soon as daylight savings comes it’s the same old problem. Parking on both sides and can’t get through.

I’m not referring to the business district on parking.

What I’m concerned with is the fire department, ambulances and law enforcement responding to an emergency and not able to get through the streets. Every second courts in an emergency. There are a lot of narrow streets in Creston.

So I’m hoping folks really think this through and can maybe come up with an ordinance.

The second item I’m thinking about is the Amtrak discussion in the Thursday, Oct. 6, Creston News Advertiser. Maybe things have changed on the depot issue, as I have not heard any more discussions. Why is this all coming forward now after eight years, for the mayor and city council to deal with? I would hope the appearance of the depot is not altered too much.

Burlington Northern owns that parking lot on Union Street. Why not use that for the 12 or more spots for Amtrak passengers to park? Maybe you’d have to shuttle the passengers to the depot or hire a valet. I don’t care for the handrails going almost all the way to the street. The brick is part of the depot. It’s been there for years. Where would the benches downstairs be relocated to? That is a special floor in the depot and it may be hard to find someone to repair the floor when you move the benches. That floor needs to

be preserved as it’s been there for years.

Changing the depot has to be approved by the Historical Preservation people, and it sometimes can be a problem changing something. So does the city hire someone to clean it up after passengers or who wants to maybe volunteer? Good luck.

It sounds to me that if Creston doesn’t enter into a lease or agreement, then Creston would no longer be an Amtrak stop.

That sounds like a big threat to me. Come on – how many years has Amtrak and the other trains stopped here? You know we are supposed to be a railroad town.

Last – I think Burlington Northern should be made to fix the tracks on Elm Street. You almost have to come to a complete stop to get over them. It is one of the ugliest things I’ve seen in awhile. It doesn’t do our town any good when people coming in to shop have to deal with that track problem. It’s almost a maze going through that. At night, it’s not pretty either.

The Texas Longhorns just unveiled a plan to build a luxury golf retirement community for playmakers whose college eligibility just expired.

President Obama in Germany on Thursday praised Chancellor Angela Merkel as a valuable partner. They’ve had their rocky moments. Just two years ago, Angela Merkel ripped the United States for using the NSA to spy on her phone calls without giving the Gestapo a penny in royalty fees.

President Obama arrived in Peru over the weekend after stops in Greece and Germany. He was there to explain the U.S. election to allies and trading partners. It’s a sentimental journey for the president in that this is the last time he’ll have the opportunity to apologize for the U.S. on foreign soil.

ambush appeared to be a group display of bad manners. The Republican had such a bad night in the theater he was described as Lincoln-esque.

The “Hamilton” cast defiantly stood by its decision Friday to lecture Pence on multiculturalism from the stage. Nobody gets any respect. Hillary Clinton tried to go to see a performance of the musical “Les Miserables,” but the cast asked Hillary to leave because she was bringing the room down.

NFL officials vowed to take measures to speed up games in order to retrieve the NFL’s lost TV viewers. They praised the fast pace of National Hockey League games as an example of what appeals to today’s sports viewer. The average hockey game lasts about two hours and 35 beers.

Kanye West cancels remaining dates on Saint Pablo tour (AP) — Kanye West has abruptly pulled the plug on his Saint Pablo Tour a few days after making statements onstage about how he “would have voted for Donald Trump” and after a stormy weekend in which he abruptly canceled a show after four songs.

A representative for the rapper said Monday the remaining 21 dates of West’s current tour have been canceled. No reason was given. Live Nation said tickets will be “fully refunded at point of purchase.”

Henry birthday card shower planned The family of Joe Henry is hosting a card shower in honor of his 90th birthday Nov. 27.

Cards may be sent to him at 804 Quiet Harbor, Creston, IA 50801.

The tour, now in California, was to make stops through Dec. 31 in Dallas, Denver, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Detroit, Boston, New York City and Washington, D.C., among others.

The cancellation comes after a complex weekend for the musician, who ended a concert early in Sacramento, California, on Saturday, then canceled a performance Sunday in the Los Angeles area.

Saturday’s truncated show became a hot topic on social platforms as amateur videos circulated

of a 10-minute tirade by West about Beyonce, Jay Z, Hillary Clinton, Mark Zuckerberg, the radio and MTV. Over the weekend, West also flooded his Instagram account with nearly 100 fashion photos, many snaps of photos that were out of focus and poorly cropped.

On Friday, during a concert in San Jose, California, West said he didn’t vote but would have cast a ballot for Trump, praising the president-elect’s “method of communication” as “very futuristic.”

Lighting up the knowledge bulb Dear Heloise: We just helped our daughter move into her FIRST APARTMENT. We bought her a really cute table lamp (including the light bulbs). She called later that day, disappointed that we would have to return it because it didn’t work once plugged in.

We suggested she try the light bulbs in another lamp, and yes, they worked. We then asked her to plug the lamp into a different outlet that already had something plugged into it that worked.

The light bulb came on, and the lamp worked!

We had to explain that some plugs work only when the light switch is flipped on.

She was shocked! We think this hint is worth mentioning to others moving into a new place who may not realize it’s a matter of plugging the item in and flipping the switch to get lamps, etc., to work. – Gina D., Knoxville, Tenn.

How exciting to move into a new place! Really, how would she know to try different plugs and switches?

– Heloise PAINTING HINT Dear Heloise: Recently, I decided to update my powder room by removing the wallpaper and painting. Be-

Hints from Heloise cause I wasn’t replacing the toilet, I had to figure out how to scrape and paint behind it.

I used a long-handled spatula from an old barbecue set to scrape the wallpaper I couldn’t reach. I angled it against the toilet for leverage. To keep the paint off the toilet, I covered the toilet tank with a plastic clothing bag, like the ones that are put over hanging clothes at clothing stores. A dry-cleaning bag also would work. Then I found a 1- to 1-1/2-inch fabric roller with a long handle at my local hardware store that fit behind the toilet. The bag is disposable, and the toilet is still clean! – Camilla S., via email ZIPPER PULL Dear Heloise: I read your column every day in The (Youngstown, Ohio) Vindicator, and have used many of the hints printed.

I also have been fortunate enough to have had a couple of my hints published. Thank you.

DES MOINES — Five is just fine.

When five is the number of football players a program puts on the all-state list? Well, that’s a bit extraordinary.

The Creston/Orient-Macksburg Panthers have placed five members of this season’s football team on the Class 3A allstate team as determined by members of the Iowa Newspaper Association.

“We have a really good district. And that’s a tremendous honor to be recognized on the all-state team, especially by the INA,” Creston/O-M coach Brian Morrison said.

Leading the charge on the first team offense for the Panthers were senior Chase Shiltz as a running back and junior Trevor Downing as an offensive linemen.

The selection marked the second time that Downing was selected to the all-state team. In 2015, Downing earned a second team spot.

Shiltz’s selection put a final touch on an illustrious career at running back with a second team selection in 2014 and first team selections the last two years.

Shiltz ran for 1,537 yards and 26 touchdowns this season on the ground. He averaged 7.8 yards per carry and led Class 3A in rushing touchdowns and points scored (183). He was a persistent threat as a running back and while taking shotgun snaps in the team’s “Tank” formation.

throughout the season. His physical presence at left tackle led the way for an offense that ran for 3,117 yards (third in Class 3A) and 45 rushing scores (second in 3A).

Kadon Hulett, a two-way starter on the line, earned

second-team honors for his play as a defensive end. It’s his first time on the list.

Hulett led a defense as a captain that held six opponents to single digit scoring totals this season. As a pass rusher, he helped hurry opposing quarterbacks into a

district-best 14 interceptions for the Panther defense. He recorded 38.5 tackles, seven for a loss, had two sacks and recovered two fumbles, one for a touchdown.

Rounding out the selections for Creston/O-M were senior Cody Tanner as a

third team offensive player for his play on the offensive line, and senior Zach Carlson on the third team defensive unit, for his play namely at safety.

Area players earn all-state football honors n

Two from Lenox, two from East Union and one from Southwest Valley gain recognition

By RYAN KRONBERG CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

DES MOINES — Five area football players have earned recognition from the Iowa Newspaper Association with spots on both the Class A and Eight-player teams.

Southwest Valley had one representative in senior Scott Palmer on the third team as a defensive lineman. Lenox had two in Eight-player in Jared Hensley as a second team defensive back and senior Dawson Tullberg as the third team kicker.

East Union had a pair on the third team in Eight player. Senior Gabe Nixon was chosen as a receiver. Senior Beau Boswell was tabbed as a linebacker.

Palmer had 26 solo tackles, second best on the team, and 53 assists, also second best on the team. He led the Timberwolves with 12 solo tackles and had 12 sacks.

Timberwolves coach Anthony Donahoo beamed when talking about his defensive ace.

“We had our banquet and I didn’t say enough good things about what he did, specifically on the defensive side,” Donahoo said. “He came in and stepped up.”

In the past, Palmer had been on the outside at a defensive end spot. This season, Palmer moved inside.

He was a disruptive force there.

On obvious passing downs, Palmer moved out to end. There, he took aim at the other teams’ quarterbacks.

“We moved him all over,” Donahoo said. “We had him as a three technique, a one technique, end. We wanted to be creative to get him in different spots.”

Playing on the inside allowed Palmer to be a force in the run defense.

“We wanted to move him inside to create disruption inside,” Donahoo said.

“Teams couldn’t run away from him. He was the anchor point inside.”

Palmer had two or more sacks in multiple games.

“On passing situations, we set him outside and let him loose,” Donahoo said.

“Those were big for us.”

Palmer’s production will be missed.

“It’s going going to be hard to replace him next year,” Donahoo said.

“We’re going to have to do it with multiple people.”

Lenox represented by two Hensley led the Tigers in tackles with 49 solo and 58 assists, including five for loss. He intercepted five passes and recovered one fumble.

“He’s just a difference maker,” said Lenox coach Matt Malausky.

While Hensley was small at 5-7, he still found a way to shut down other teams’ receivers.

“He didn’t let that bother him,” Malausky said. “He did a good job covering the other teams’ better receivers.”

Hensley made plays in space regularly.

“He was able to bring AREA | 12A

Mount Ayr girls basketball tops Creston on opening night

By RYAN KRONBERG CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

MOUNT AYR — Class 2A seventh-ranked Mount Ayr struggled at times in the first two quarters of Monday’s season opener against Creston.

The Raiderettes were able to find their groove in the second half in pulling away for a 49-39 win in Mount Ayr. The Raiderettes outscored the Panthers 34-22 in the second 16 minutes.

Solid defense sparked the offense.

“I was proud of our effort in the second half,” said Mount Ayr coach Thad Streit. “We had to change up our defense. We had to do something to get some stops. Our defense led to our offense. We got some

Tanner was a large and steady presence at center for most of the year. Was was an anchor on line.

Carlson’s explosiveness on offense earned him exploits, but his defense at the back of the Panthers’ 3-4 defense was of critical importance to the team’s improvement when it came to eliminating big plays. He was second on the squad with 46.5 tackles and intercepted a pass.

“We had kids on that team last year. (Downing and Shiltz) Once again had tremendous years,” Morrison said. “I think Hulett is deserving of anything he gets as far as the player he is. Zach Carlson is a tremendous

stops and got some momentum on offense.”

Sara Winemiller provided a big spark off the bench to lead the Raiderettes with 12 points on 6-of-8 shooting.

“She came in and gave us some great energy,” Streit said.

The Raiderettes used their bench effectively.

“Caylee Hickman hit a couple threes. Keirston Klommhaus came in and did some great things,” Streit said.

Megan Warin had 10 points and five rebounds.

Kelcie Shields had seven rebounds in limited minutes.

Blair Glendenning had seven rebounds and five assists.

Creston struggled at times.

“We did a lot of things that helped us lose the game and they won the game,” said Creston coach Ryan

McKim. “There’s no doubt they deserved to win the game.”

The Panthers offense is looking to replace their top two scorers from last season.

Creston was able to move the ball around at times and find buckets, but couldn’t hit enough consistently.

“There’s a huge learning curve,” McKim said.

“We’ve got to learn to get better and do it.”

Brielle Baker led the Panthers with 14 points. Cammy Rutherford and Madison Callahan each had 10 points.

For several Panthers, it was their first significant time on varsity.

“We’ve got new people.

They’ve got to learn what this level of basketball is.

They will.”

McKim credited the veteran Raiderettes for a solid game.

player and with his stats and numbers and what he did for us, he’s deserving. Same thing for Tanner.”

Morrison gave credit to the five for their hard work this season.

“We’re talking about kids that have put a lot of time in and definitely deserve the reward and the honor because it definitely is.”

Aside from the five Panthers, 10 other Class 3A District 7 players earned spots on the INA all-state team.

Glenwood placed four players on the squad. Junior Caleb Saunders earned a defensive first team nod for his play as on the Rams’ line.

Senior Cole Loeffelbein was the utility player for the first team defense. Glenwood senior Mavrick Decker earned a spot on the second team offense. Mitch Stanley

was the last Ram to earn a place on the third team defense for his defensive line play.

Carroll put four on the squad. Senior Dayton Ross picked up a spot on the second team offense as a wide receiver/tight end. Senior Reese Fitzpatrick earned a first team spot on the offensive line. Austin Schirck, whose 14 sacks led the district, earned a spot on the second team defense. Senior Soren Jensen’s play was good enough to put him on the third team offense for the offensive line.

Senior Noah Larson of Winterset grabbed a spot on the second team defense as a defensive back. Junior Nick Foss of Harlan earned a second team offensive spot for his play as a running back.

“That’s a good basketball team. There’s no doubt about it,” McKim said.

“They have good players. They’re well coached.

They’re going to have a good year.”

Mount Ayr led 9-4 after one quarter. Creston battled back to outscore Mount Ayr 13-6 in the second quarter and led 17-15 at halftime.

down people in the open field,” Malausky said.

“There was no better tackler in the open field than Jared Hensley.”

Hensley’s speed was an asset on the back line.

“He’s pretty fast. To chase guys down, that’s a huge thing.”

Tullburg was a do-it-all weapon for the Tigers.

As a place kicker, he was 2-for-3 on field goals, with a long of 37, a school record.

On kickoffs, he boomed 40 for 1,958 yards. Twenty-four went for touchbacks.

“When you can have a team starting at their own 15 on every drive, that’s huge,” Malausky said. “Especially in the kicking game, making them go into the wind, that can make a difference at the start of the game, make them do what they don’t want to do.”

At the quarterback spot, Tullberg accounted for a team-high 665 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns. He threw for 613 yards and 12 more touchdowns despite missing nearly two and a half games with a broken leg.

“He was our everything,” Malausky said. “He was our quarterback. He was one of our best defensive backs.

He could’ve played running back or tight end. He was our leading receiver last year.”

Tullberg’s speed was a weapon the Tigers used.

“Not every team we played against utilized their quarterback as a runner,” Malausky said. “In our offense, we did that and part of that was because of what he offers in that arena.”

East Union represented by two Nixon led the Eagles in receptions with 36, yards with 638 and receiving touchdowns with 10.

Nixon was a key cog in the Eagles offense.

“Offensively, he’s really electric for us on the field,” said East Union co-coach

James Hardy. “Just specifically his ability to be a ball-possession receiver.”

Nixon started the season in the backfield, but eventually shifted back to the outside.

Nixon was a weapon the Eagles could rely on, along with Mason Gossman.

“They both had the speed and ball possession,” Hardy said. “We were trying to create more balance. We were able to do that through those guys.”

Nixon made life easy for quarterbacks Sanden Cheers and Ryan Collins.

“Both quarterbacks knew who their primary receiver was on the call. They knew the plays, who would be open in what situations.”

Nixon’s speed allowed him to create mismatches against opposing team’s secondary.

“If he had the ball in his possession, he’d turn it into six,” Hardy said. “When he got it out in the open, it didn’t look like he was hardly moving. He’s a quarter-miler.

He’s capable of running the 400 in 52 seconds. It shows his ability to cruise down the field with a seemingly effortless stride. He was moving pretty quick.”

Boswell led the Eagles with 61 solo tackles and 29 assists. He also had five solo tackles for loss.

“He’s a tackling machine,” Hardy said.

Boswell often lined up to the strong side of the opposing team’s formation. There, he was able to step in and make plays.

“He has a nose for the ball,” Hardy said. “It seemed like he was always around it.”

Boswell shed his blocks regularly in order to make plays.

“He was able to get off blocks. He had the ability to engage the blocker and get off and get into the action very quickly,” Hardy said.

Boswell’s size and speed made him a force to be reckoned with.

“He was very strong and very quick,” Hardy said. “He defined linebacker.”

‘Transform’ marked the 89th National FFA Convention Creston FFA members know firsthand why “Transform” was the theme for the 89th National FFA Convention in Indianapolis. The convention’s theme symbolized the agricultural education organization’s mission to spark the passion and purpose to prepare students for success throughout their lives.

More than 66,000 FFA members, advisers, supporters and guests were in attendance at the annual convention held Oct. 19-22.

The Creston FFA Chapter again was recognized as a supreme chapter and ranked in the top 25 chapters in the state of Iowa for its outstanding efforts in promoting and working toward the development of its members, chapter and community by developing individual and cooperative activities that enhanced its members’ life skills, promoting its ability to develop a positive image and interaction with support groups through cooperative and organized activities and its developed community partnership in improving economic, environmental and human resources.

The chapter stressed the development of its members, chapter and community through a wide variety of projects. During the past school year, the chapter conducted local leadership workshops and conventions, participated in more than a dozen judging events and had members compete in contests above the local level.

Chapter activities Make Creston Green and Christmas holiday activities have been identified as programs assisting in Creston FFA’s success in being recognized as one of Iowa’s top 25 chapters. Its Christmas holiday activities, including the CHS student body, involved purchasing presents for children and the collection of toys and canned

Creston FFA members are pictured outside of the FFA Career Center while attending the 89th National FFA Convention held in Indianapolis. Members in front, from left, are Kayla Luther, Paige Parsons, Mattie Wheeler, Macy Evans, Taylor Sorrells and Ellie Starlin. In the middle row are Logan Pettit, Danika Schultes, Morgan Shawler and Laura Weis. In the back row are Hank Looney, Nathan Pudenz, Will Gordon, Seth Steinbach, Kolten Phelps, Devon Buls and adviser Kelsey Bailey.

goods. The canned goods and toys were given to the community pantry for distribution during the holiday season.

During the past school year, the chapter conducted a number of safety activities involving hundreds of area youth, which included its annual bicycle safety program and rodeo, where helmets were provided to participating youth, as well as hunter safety and Halloween safety program presentations. The chapter also assisted with counselors in conducting a Red Ribbon Week Drug Safety Awareness program for the school’s elementary students.

Future education and career exploration are key components of the convention.

Students attending visited hundreds of exhibitors that provided information about educational and career possibilities held at the concurrent National FFA Alumni Convention and National Agricultural Career Show. In addition to convention highlights, members also embarked on a trip to the Indianapolis Zoo. Most people do not think of

the animal-science principles zookeepers need to have in order to operate a zoo. Veterinarians, nutritionists, behavior specialists, education specialists and general caretakers are all careers available at the zoo. For many on the trip, the Indianapolis Zoo was the first opportunity to see dolphin trainers in action when FFA members attended the dolphin show at the aquatic center.

The last day of the National FFA Convention was celebrated by awarding FFA members from across the nation with the American FFA Degree. The American FFA Degree is the highest honor an FFA member can earn in this organization.

To receive the American FFA Degree, members must meet the following requirements: • received their state degree, been an FFA member for three consecutive years and participated in activities at and beyond the chapter level • have satisfactorily com-

plete a secondary agriculture education program • have graduated from high school 12 months prior to the national convention in which the degree will be awarded • have in operation and have maintained records to substantiate an outstanding SAE • earned at least $10,000 and productively invested $7,500 or earned and productively invested $2,000 and worked 2,250 hours in excess of scheduled class time • have a record of outstanding leadership abilities, community involvement and achieved a high school scholastic record of “C” or better as certified by the principal or superintendent • have participated in at least 50 hours of community service within at least three different community service activities.

This year, Creston FFA member Brooke Thelen earned and received her American FFA Degree at the convention.
