Lois Monday remembered AG: New Iowa governor won’t as ‘colorful personality’ have power to pick lieutenant DES MOINES (AP) — Iowa’s attorney general has concluded that Lt. Gov. Kim Reynolds will not have the power to appoint a lieutenant governor when she replaces Gov. Terry Branstad, a Reynolds surprise reversal that infuriated Republicans and set up a potential consti-

tutional showdown.

Reynolds is preparing to become governor when Branstad resigns to become U.S. ambassador to China, which is expected to happen once he’s confirmed by the U.S. Senate. In a legal opinion released Monday, Democratic Iowa Attorney General Tom Miller said Reynolds will have the title and powers of governor through January 2019 but not the authority to choose IOWA | 2A

By BAILEY POOLMAN CNA staff reporter bpoolman@crestonnews.com

In the supervisor’s room at the Union County Courthouse, a variety of county officials and employees sit and stand in a circle, commenting how Lois Monday impacted each and every one of them.

“Lois was a very colorful personality with a wonderful sense of humor,” said Union County Board of Supervisors Chair Dennis Brown. “She worked hard all her life, never had anything handed to her and she had to work and scrap and fight for everything she got.”

Monday, a prominent voice in the Creston and Union County communi-

ties, was 74 when she died April 25.

Monday was born Dec. 17, 1942, to Henry Paul McNichols and Gladys Lucille (Conklin) McNich- Monday ols in Creston, graduating from Creston High School in 1961. She found her niche in selling real estate and insurance and completing income taxes. She owned and operated Monday Realty Income Tax and Accounting Services for many years in Creston.

Iowa inmate captured after killing deputy during escape COUNCIL BLUFFS (AP) — An inmate shot two sheriff’s deputies, killing one of them, and escaped from an Iowa jail on Monday before he was recaptured a short time later following a high-speed chase across the state border in Nebraska.

Pottawattamie County Sheriff Jeff Danker said Wesley Williams Correa-Carmenaty, 23, managed to steal a sheriff’s dep-

uty’s gun after he returned from court and shot the two deputies around 11 a.m.

Then Correa-Carmenaty stole the transport van and crashed through a garage door at the Pottawattamie County Jail in Council Bluffs, which is just across the Missouri River from Omaha, Nebraska.

Danker said it’s a tragedy ESCAPE | 2A

Man charged with burning covered bridge pleads not guilty WINTERSET (AP) — An 18-year-old accused in the burning of a covered bridge featured in the best-selling novel “The Bridges of Madison County” has pleaded not guilty.

Court records say Joel D a v i s entered the pleas Monday to arson and related charges.

His trial is Davis scheduled

Mom of starved Iowa teenage girl wants murder trial moved WEST DES MOINES (AP) — A West Des Moines woman accused of starving and neglecting her teenage daughter wants a separate trial from her former husband and wants her murder trial moved out of Polk County.

Nicole Finn and Joseph Finn II are charged with the October starvation death of 16-year-old Nicole Finn and the suspected abuse of two of Natalie’s siblings. Nicole Finn

also is charged with murder.

Both have pleaded not guilty.

The Des Moines Register reports (http://dmreg.co/2qnTOar) that lawyers for Nicole Finn cited pretrial publicity and other factors in her request last week for a change of venue. Finn’s attorneys are seeking a separate trial because of their concerns about potentially incriminating statements he made to investigators.

great-grandchildren and other family members.

Monday served as a member of the Union County Board of Supervisors since 2011, when she and Dennis Brown were initiated after being voted on in late 2010.

She was also a former member of Creston City Council.

Supervisors Monday worked with Brown and Ron Riley, the third board member, for more than six years, meeting regularly with the two and Union County Auditor Sandy Hysell to discuss county government.

“She said what was on her mind. She was outspoken.

She had good ideas. She was a firecracker,” Hysell said.

“I think she loved working with everybody up here and she enjoyed being part of the team.”

Monday’s biggest concern, according to several officials, was being fair to the county taxpayers. She tried decreasing the county debt by paying off current bonds before taking out another bond for a county project.

“The county’s involved in so many different things.

We spent money in so many different areas. She was just making sure every penny, dime and nickel were spent wisely,” Brown said. “She just wanted to make sure that Union County taxpayers received their bang for their buck.”

“If anybody else brought up bonding for something, she wanted to get what we had on the books paid down.

a new lieutenant.

His opinion cited the wording of the Iowa Constitution and 140 years of historical precedent. But it was a reversal from December, when Miller agreed with the Republican administration that Reynolds would have the power to pick a new No. 2.

If she follows Miller’s advice, Reynolds will not have a lieutenant who could travel Iowa promoting her administration while serving as her running mate for the 2018 election, when she’s expected to seek a four-year term against Democratic and possible Republican challengers.

If she ignores Miller and appoints someone, she will likely face a court challenge and be accused of exceeding her authority. Miller’s opinion isn’t binding but would have influence in court.

Reynolds denounced the timing and conclusion of Miller’s opinion, saying she believed his earlier guidance

that 43-year-old Mark Burbridge died shortly after noon at an Omaha hospital.

The other wounded deputy and a civilian who was shot during a failed carjacking were both in fair condition at a different Omaha hospital.

“He was an excellent man.

We’re going to miss him,” Danker said.

She wanted to get the bean plant paid down before she considered doing another bond,” Hysell said. “She wanted to make sure the county was fiscally sound.”

Proof of that came in 2015, when Union County’s tax levy dropped again, making it fifth in the state for highest tax levy. Union County previously held the spot for highest tax levy, something Monday was glad was no longer the case.

“I’m delighted,” Monday had said. “At least we’re not one. It’s been a long, hard draw.”

Accompanying the lowering tax levy rate was the decreasing debt service. The county supervisors have been paying off bonds since more than $12 million of debt was accumulated by 2011. By September 2015, the debt service was decreased to about $5.5 million, a difference of more than $6.5 million.

“It was very interestwas correct and that she was considering moving ahead with an appointment. Reynolds has already vetted several candidates in anticipation of a pick.

“This politically motivated opinion defies common sense,” added Branstad, who faces a confirmation hearing Tuesday in Washington.

Branstad and Reynolds argue she has the authority under a 2009 law that says, in the event of a vacancy in the lieutenant governor’s office, the governor can appoint a replacement. Republican Secretary of State Paul Pate said Monday his office agrees, calling Miller’s opinion “confusing and unnecessary” and saying Reynolds has the authority to move forward.

Republicans who control both houses of the Legislature denounced Miller’s opinion.

“This is clearly a partisan move to muddy the waters in an attempt to delegitimize Lt. Gov. Reynolds as she becomes our next Governor,” House Speaker Linda Upmeyer and House Majority Leader Chris Hagenow said. the gun and whether he had been able to free himself from his shackles during the ride back from court. One other inmate was in the van, but Danker said he didn’t believe she was involved.

After escaping the jail, Correa-Carmenaty tried to steal a pickup truck and shot the driver, but continued on in the jail van.

Then in a neighborhood about two miles away, Correa-Carmenaty took a woman’s car at gunpoint and drove to Omaha where he dropped her off at a liquor store.

ing (working with her). At times, it could be very challenging. But, the bottom line was she had the taxpayers’ interest at heart, and that’s what she always worked for,” Riley said. “She didn’t want to feel like we wasted our money, and wanted to take care of the taxpayers to the best of her ability.”

Something a lot of people said they would miss about Monday was her personality. She has been described as “one of a kind,” “passionate” and “colorful.”

“You had to really get to know Lois to know what a wonderful sense of humor she had,” Brown said. “She was always, to Ron and I, anyway, she was always asking about our families. She was very concerned about our well being. That was a big part of her life, too, her kids and grandkids and great-grandkids.

“She worked hard all her life. She was concerned with

money being wasted, but she had a family and knew that’s what was important: family, friends,” Brown said.

Riley said Monday was a passionate person, standing up for what she believed in without worrying about what other people thought of her. He also said she had a very big heart.

“I would describe it as interesting, challenging, serious and fun. This is how I would describe working with Lois,” Riley said. “All of these terms would be achieved on almost every topic that you’d be discussing and trying to arrive on a decision. With Lois, it would all boil down to fairness to the taxpayer. ... She wanted to make sure you heard her opinion. Her vibrancy will be missed in the board room.”

“She’s going to be missed,” Hysell said. “She was one of a kind. I think God actually broke the mold when he made Lois.”

But attorney Gary Dickey, who served as general counsel for Gov. Tom Vilsack, said Miller arrived at the correct decision under the Constitution and “very persuasive” historical precedent. He said any appointment by Reynolds would likely be challenged by him or other attorneys who will be watching to ensure the Constitution is followed.

Miller told reporters he hoped Reynolds won’t ignore his advice, saying “we all have the obligation to follow the law.”

“The best statement of the law currently is an attorney general’s opinion,” he said, calling it thorough and impartial.

Making an appointment “would be asserting her position of what she thinks the law is,” said Miller, who has served as the state’s top lawyer for decades.

Miller issued the opinion in response to a request from Sen. David Johnson, an independent who thanked Miller “for the many hours devoted

to researching the constitutional issues at hand.”

“I also applaud General Miller’s commitment to getting it right,” Johnson said.

Miller struggled with the decision but concluded that a provision of the constitution offered clear guidance. That provision says the governor’s powers “devolve upon the Lieutenant Governor” if the governor resigns. It says those powers transfer to the Senate president should the new governor “be impeached, displaced, resign, or die” during the term. Miller said the authors of the 1857 constitution wanted officials in line to be governor to have been elected.

Miller noted that in the four previous times when a lieutenant governor replaced an Iowa governor — in 1877, 1908, 1954 and 1969 — they didn’t appoint new lieutenants. He said the 2009 law didn’t apply in the event of a governor’s resignation, saying there is no lieutenant governor’s vacancy to fill.

Two local hospice aides were honored with Leadership Awards at this year’s Iowa Caregiver’s Conference held April 10 at Prairie Meadows Conference Center in Altoona. Donna Cheers and Sally Chapman, both hospice aides at HCI Hospice Care Services’ Greater Regional Hospice Home, have been active with the Iowa Caregiver’s Association for the past two years.

Cheers has worked as an aide for nearly 40 years, the last three of which have been with HCI Hospice Care Services. “I can’t express how honored I am to receive this award,� Cheers said. “I feel

so blessed to have found a job that I love to do and work with an awesome team. It is an honor to be able to help families and their loved ones during such personal and vulnerable times in their lives. It’s very rewarding to go home at the end of our shifts and think we have helped them through another stage of their journey.�

Cheers encourages others to take advantage of the services hospice has to offer, as she says many families share they wished they’d called sooner. She and her husband have lived in Afton for 45 years. When not working, she enjoys spending time with their children, grandchil-

dren, great-grandchildren and friends.

Chapman has been an aide for about 23 years. She was inspired to work in hospice care after her mother received the services. “It is such an honor to receive this award,� Chapman said. “I love what I do, and I feel it is a gift from God.�

Chapman enjoys “being there� for the families she serves and offering them a compassionate shoulder to lean on or a listening ear.

She has called Murray home for the past 14 years and enjoys selling Partylite candles, camping and watching movies in her spare time.

Iowa artists can submit art showcasing farming DES MOINES – From the gentle swells of landscapes to barnyards and farm animals, the “Celebration of Iowa: Agriculture Art Exhibition� captures the splendor of the Iowa’s rural heritage.

Organizers of the sixth-annual exhibit are accepting new submissions online at www.iowaculture.gov through July 1.

The competition offers $5,600 in prizes, with awards presented during the Iowa State Fair and finalist artwork displayed August through October at the State Historical Museum of Iowa in Des Moines. The exhibit is overseen by the Iowa Arts Council, a division of Iowa Department of Cultural Affairs; Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship and Iowa Farm Bureau Federation. “This exhibit has been well received since its inception and continues to be a great success,� Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey said. “We thank the Iowa Department of Cultural Affairs, Iowa Arts Council and Iowa Farm Bureau for partnering with us, and

we look forward to seeing what Iowa artists submit this year.� “Iowans have honored the beauty and diversity of our land through art long before we were even a state,� said Iowa Department of Cultural Affairs Director Mary Cownie. “We are grateful to the Iowa Department of Agriculture and the Iowa Farm Bureau Federation for partnering with us to showcase Iowa artists of all ages and encourage their talent.� “Agriculture accounts for one out of every five jobs in Iowa, but few Iowans get a chance to work the land,� said Iowa Farm Bureau Federation President Craig Hill. “So it’s very satisfying that this exhibit draws attention to our passion for growing crops and caring for animals.� “Celebration of Iowa: Agriculture Art Exhibition� is a juried exhibit that recognizes Iowa artists and celebrates Iowa’s role as a global leader in agriculture. Artwork will be judged on innovation of concept and the aesthetic and technical quality of the work.

OPINION

Creston News Advertiser | Tuesday, May 2, 2017

Steve King, what a guy!

Oh that Steve King. Always getting himself into shenanigans.

Harmless, meaningless fun, all the while championing the cause of our great Western Culture.

How wonderful of him to recognize the inherent greatness in Western Civilization.

When Steve King says we can’t restore “our civilization with somebody else’s babies,” obviously he’s noting that our Western babies are better to our way of life. And we all know what he means by American babies. The good ‘ole, home-grown, bottle-fed American children we all cherish so deeply.

Nevermind that he makes an awkward and obviously unintentional habit of making such comments when it comes to Muslims, immigrants and any minority

Ohiowa musings Kaleb Carter sports writer

group that he might feel the need to tweet about or confer to someone else on live television when representing the great state of Iowa.

Obviously the only reason King is a fan of Dutch far-right leader Geert Wilders, who once proposed to ban the erection of any mosques in the Netherlands and told Newsweek’s Winston Ross “Our culture, based on Christianity, humanism and Judaism, it’s a better culture. We don’t settle things with violence—well, sometimes we do, but mostly we don’t. Cultural rela-

tivism has made it so people don’t know who they are anymore,” is because of how Wilders champions white Europeans having more babies. This belief is born out of complete innocence and sure love purely for the white race and nothing more. Certainly nothing more.

King certainly only was speaking ill of the terrorists when he said that “radical Islamists” will be “dancing in the streets” if Barack Obama were to become president in 2008. Because Obama’s middle name is Hussein. We all know how sinister that is.

And we all know, without a shadow of a doubt, how much the terrorists loved our beleaguered former president. Otherwise, King would not have made such a well-natured comment.

I would be remiss to point out

how adamantly opposed Steve King was to placing Harriett Tubman’s face on the $20 bill.

“Y’know? Why would you want to change that? I am a conservative, I like to keep what we have,” King said.

And of course, when King recently mocked a Latin American-sounding name calling for accountability at King’s D.C. office, he was suggesting the person in question might not “always lie in English.” We all know how conniving Spanish-speaking Americans are. But then again, we also know that Spanish speakers are less in tune with our inherently greater Western Civilization.

Every time King lauds the deportation of a DREAMer, he does so knowing that only the “bad hombres” are the ones we send

back to where they came from!

Which is exactly why he wants to repeal legislation that he’s no big fan of, precisely because he liked it when we had no laws. We know how big government is standing in the way of everything. We may have it, but we should go back to keeping what we had. Nothing in place. Always was a big fan of nothing in particular!

It makes sense when you really think about it. Steve King is a sensible man. We know this to be true.

If that weren’t the case, King wouldn’t have to say the next dumb thing he’s about to say.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Animals have feelings too From Marsha A. Wilson Creston

Seriously? Common sense?

Friday night, someone broke into the Creston City Pound. Yes, I said the city pound. It was cold, rainy and just miserable out. Whoever decided to do this obviously does not care for the well-being of animals. The last I heard, three of the four have been found. One of these poor dogs was taking daily medicine. I just cannot understand why in the world someone would do this.

First, let me admit we own two boxers that get lost by escaping down the alley. But, thank goodness we have wonderful neighbors that are used to them getting out the door before their leash is hooked. They either bring them home, call that they are visiting or I get in the truck and go down the alley or street. The dogs get in thinking they are going for a ride, which they do around the block and back home on their collars and leashes.

With that said, if you have an animal, any type of animal, it is your responsibility as owners to take care of them. When you bought or adopted this animal, your home should be their forever home. Not

out running the streets, neighborhood or wherever. If you are not ready to take on the responsibility, then don’t get an animal. Our dogs are rescue dogs. They have been abused, starved, you name it, and they are now in their forever home.

Sure the city pound isn’t where any animal should be, but if by chance they are there, at least they are getting fed, in shelter and very well cared for until the owner comes to get them or they are adopted.

Remember, animals have feelings also. If they are in what they believe is the forever home, then they should stay there. Just because they grow up, you get too busy or you are tired of them, they didn’t give up on you, so why should you give up on them?

If the police ever find the person or persons that did this, if I was the lawyer or judge, they would be charged with animal abuse, animal neglect, breaking into a government owned building and anything else possible. Plus, they would be sitting in a little cell for a long time, knowing what it is like to be abused and no one cares for them.

I hope whoever did this has sleepless nights for what was done to these animals. Look in the mirror. Are you proud of yourself?

Funding your medical savings account HOLLYWOOD – God bless America, and how’s everybody?

President Trump told GOP lawmakers they have the Congress and the White House now and they must start governing.

They’re like Jehovah’s Witnesses who were invited into the living room and asked what they’d like to discuss. They said they didn’t know because they’d never gotten this far.

United Airlines vowed Friday to reduce overbooking its airline flights. They offered to pay up to $10,000 to any passenger who gets bumped off a United flight.

The $10,000 will go directly into a medical savings account to cover the passenger’s removal from the plane.

Jamaica’s Security Minister began extraditing hundreds of Jamaicans to the United States for trials on lottery scamming charges in which Americans were scammed out of millions of dollars. The cultural misunderstandings make it tough. For starters, Pokemon is not a Jamaican proctologist.

Mexico’s foreign minister proposed an entry fee for American tourists Tuesday. The country allows you to enjoy bullfights, casinos, strip bar brothels, and user amounts of pot and cocaine are legal. The only question that occurs to me is, what took them so long to think of a cover charge?

North Korea’s Kim Jung Un defiantly staged a Scud missile test Friday as the U.S. Navy fleet neared the Korean waters.

It barely made it off the launch pad before it exploded and fell

Topical humor Argus Hamilton

apart in mid-air. North Korea’s missile broke up faster than a Kardashian with a second-round draft pick.

Kim Jung Un claimed he has Taepo-dong Two missiles that can reach the United States. Kim forgot to mention he’s only tested his short range Taepo-dong One missile, and it fizzled last week. If Kim Jung Un were anymore insecure about his dong, he would be driving around in a red Corvette.

The National Football League held its annual college player draft last weekend in Philadelphia. For hours, America’s best young athletes waited on the national stage to see who’d buy them. To make the NFL Draft more realistic, next year it’s going to be held in Colonial Williamsburg.

Israel fired Patriot missiles to destroy a Hezbollah weapons site in Lebanon on Friday. Israeli troops battled Hamas militants in the West Bank. Hamas and Hezbollah are the only two political parties in history to be organized around the principle that sundown is an international Jewish plot.

Los Angeles cops reported President Trump’s star on the Hollywood Boulevard sidewalk Walk of Fame was again vandal-

ized Friday, prompting dozens of claims by celebrity activists.

The FBI usually ignores threats like this in Hollywood. Nine times out of ten, it’s the cocaine talking.

Scotland tourism officials expressed worry Tuesday that they have had no Loch Ness Monster sightings so far this year, which draw thousands of tourists to Scotland each summer. Just last year, there were eight sightings of Nessie. America has its own mythical creature, it’s call the dietitian.

The Wall Street Journal reported that Twitter stock unexpectedly skyrocketed in value Friday after better-than-expected first-quarter earnings. It’s no secret why. Ever since Donald Trump was elected, more people are using Twitter so they can follow the start of World War III in real time.

The U.N. announced Tuesday Saudi Arabia has been named to the United Nations Commission on Women’s Rights. You can’t make it up. The On-Demand movies in Saudi hotel rooms only air Thelma and Louise for eight minutes because the Saudis refuse to show any images of women driving.

Middle Eastern intelligence sources said Wednesday the drop in terror attacks indicates that morale is down among ISIS fighters. There are certainly no virgins waiting for them in Heaven. They are all standing in line on Hollywood Boulevard waiting to see “Star Wars Episode IX” in two years.

PANTHER TENNIS Panthers fight wind and Tigers in home victory

By KALEB CARTER

CNA sports reporter kacarter@crestonnews.com

A steady, biting wind and a sub30 degree wind chill on the first day of May made the Creston/Orient-Macksburg boys tennis team fight for its 6-3 home win over Red Oak Monday afternoon.

Luckily for the Panthers in this case, they’ve grown used to practicing in such conditions.

They are not nearly as affected by adverse conditions as their opponents.

Singles play keyed the Panthers Monday.

“We just played singles better tonight is what I noticed,” Cres-

ton/O-M coach Kevin Cooper said.

“You’ve just got to be patient. So far this year we’ve been impatient in places. Doubles is easy when you’re up 4-2. We were up 4-2 after singles and we were more patient.”

This factor showed up in individual play, where Creston/O-M took four of the six wins, starting with Jacob Cook and Jaden Driskell, and

ending with Triston Davidson and Walker Patterson.

“That was a great match by Walker (Patterson),” Cooper said. “He was up early, kid came back, down late, Walker came back to win it in a tiebreaker. That’s a great experience for him as a sophomore.”

SWCC NOTES

Strofaci to be SWCC full-time track and field coach STAFF REPORT

Jordan Strofaci has been hired a s head track a n d field coach for the Strofaci Southwestern Community College track and field teams for the 2017-18 season.

Strofaci has served this past year as assistant track and field and assistant cross country coach, as well as a residence hall coordinator for the college.

He also assumed duties as interim head track and field coach upon the departure of former coach Nick Ekel.

Strofaci completed a Bachelor of Arts degree in Exercise Science with a minor in strength and conditioning/fitness management at Northwestern College in Orange City. He was named captain of the Raiders track and field team two years and received numerous other athletic and community honors while at Northwestern.

Prior to employment at Southwestern, Jordan was employed as a personal trainer for Rise n’ Fly Sports and assistant coach — track and field and cross country — for Lakeside High School in Lake Elsinore, California.

Spartan softball starts postseason play

STAFF REPORT Southwestern Community College’s softball team, the number seven seed in the NJCAA Division II Region 11 tournament. starts postseason play Wednesday at 2 p.m. against two-seed Kirkwood.

Should the Spartans, (7-28, 6-22) defeat the second-ranked Eagles (49-4, 24-2), they would play the winner of Iowa Lakes, the three seed and the nation’s 19th-ranked team, and Ellsworth, the six seed.

That game is Wednesday at 4 p.m. in Kirkwood.

Kirkwood are winners of four games this year over Southwestern by an aggregate score of 45-5.

If the Spartans win, they’ll be in action Thursday at 2 p.m. A loss means a 12 p.m. game Thursday to keep the season alive.

Playing against the Spartans’ favor is the knowledge that current head coach, Paige Cassady, intends to resign from the program with the completion of the season.

PANTHER GOLF

Panther senior boys ace difficult test Girls win at Red Oak

■

By RYAN KRONBERG CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

Creston/Orient-Macksburg’s boys senior golfers were dealt a tricky set of conditions for senior night Monday.

The trio of Kyle Somers, Michael Stults and Trey Cheers negotiated Crestmoor Golf & Country Club effectively.

Somers, Stults and Cheers went one, two and three individually in leading the Panthers to an easy win on a cold and blustery afternoon.

Somers carded the only sub-40 round, posting a 39.

Stults came in with a 40, while Cheers posted a 44.

Gusts roared through Crestmoor throughout the round.

“To have those kind of conditions with the winds howling, I’m pretty stoked and happy about it (the team’s peformance),” said Creston/Orient-Macksburg coach Jon Thomson.

Cheers had one of his better rounds of the season.

“He’s one of those guys that shoots consistent,” Thomson said. “He shoots good scores.”

Somers was pleasantly satisfied with his 39.

“It was pretty brutal,” Somers said. “For the wind, it was a pretty good score.”

The result leaves him encouraged going forward.

“It’s definitely good to know I can shoot in the 30s with this kind of wind,” Somers said.

Stults had an opportunity

for a lower score, but left a couple putts just short.

“A 40 is good,” Stults said.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Taking the next step in his career Wardenburg takes coaching job at University of Sioux Falls ■

By RYAN KRONBERG

CNA sports editor ≠rkronberg@crestonnews.com

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. — Creston native Dane Wardenburg’s heart has always been in the Division II game.

Having been a standout football player at a successful program as a player, Wardenburg knew he eventually would like to return to that level to coach.

That is where Wardenburg has found himself now.

Wardenburg accepted a position as offensive line coach and recruiting coordinator at the University of Sioux Falls in South Dakota earlier this spring.

He started his new role this spring after spending the past three seasons at

OSMUN:

Iowa Western Community College in Council Bluffs.

“I knew I wanted to get back to the D-II world, being a D-II guy, just loving the four-year process,” Wardenburg said in a telephone conversation from Sioux Falls.

The spot came open around Ash Wednesday when former assistant John DeCoster left for a graduate assistant offensive line position at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, where he was originally from.

Wardenburg’s connections to Maryville and Northwest Missouri State and new Sioux Falls head coach Jon Anderson aided him in the process that led him to move to South Dakota’s largest city.

“Coach Anderson grew up in Maryville. He was a Maryville native. We had a lot of connections,” Wardenburg said. “My name was brought to his attention.”

Osmun is excited about the opportunity to play collegiately.

“It means a lot to me because when I first started playing golf, I was not very good,” Osmun said. “Over the past few years, I have improved a lot.”

She has learned how to eliminate mistakes in the round.

“When I first started, I was just learning the fundamentals of golf,” Osmun said.

“Now I am able to tell what I need to do to not make a mistake again.”

She credits the work of coaches Jan Lesan, Jon Thomson and Ryan McKim for helping her grow as a golfer.

“All my coaches have each taught me a lot about golf,” Osmun said.

The culture Graceland coach Kevin Brunner has created in Lamoni drew Osmun’s attention.

“I really liked the atmosphere there,” Osmun said.

Osmun’s skill drew Brunner’s attention.

He also sees how much better Osmun can become.

“She’s got a lot of potential,” Brunner said. “She’s come a long ways over the past few years. She has a lot of potential. We’re looking forward to having her at Graceland.”

Osmun looks forward to seeing how much better she can become on the course.

“I wanted to play college golf because I wanted to learn and improve as a golfer,” Osmun said.

Osmun visited with Brunner and several on the team and the visit to campus was smooth.

“She’ll fit right in,” Brunner said.

Osmun plans on majoring in accounting and business administration.

Having the decision out of the way eases Osmun’s mind.

“It means a lot,” Osmun said. “There is one less thing I have to stress about.”

The entire process took less than a month from initial discussions to War- Wardenburg denburg accepting the position.

Wardenburg quickly moved to South Dakota just in ahead of the start of spring football. The Cougars wrapped up spring ball this past Friday with their spring game at Bob Young Field in southeast Sioux Falls.

“Within two weeks I was hired into a different place, living in a different place, living on a couch with spring ball coming up so quick,” Wardenburg said.

While coming at the start of spring football, and not at the end of a season, Wardenburg noted that when the job opened up in Sioux Falls the situation was right.

“It was one of the top programs at the level I wanted

to get to next,” Wardenburg said. “Timing is what timing is. It wasn’t something I was even trying to turn down. I knew it was a job if it was offered to me I was going to take it.”

The start of spring ball led to the quick move.

“That was definitely the biggest thing,” Wardenburg said. “I needed to come in.

That’s why I think we did it so quick, why the decision was made so quick. They didn’t want me to come in a week and a half in and get to know the guys and the other staff members. A lot more of that focus is spring ball, staying organized, staying in front of the players, that type of thing.”

Wardenburg quickly dove into learning the offense he’ll be a part of in Sioux Falls.

“For two weeks, it has been me catching up, learning the offense terminology, packed with three practices a weeks for about three weeks, then end it all with

junior day, the spring game and the next thing, it’s spring recruiting,” Wardenburg said. “It’s a never-ending deal, but I love every bit of it.”

Leaving Iowa Western for the opportunity at Sioux Falls was not a decision Wardenburg made lightly.

“I coached some amazing football players, got some guys there that were very tough to leave,” Wardenburg said. “It was a helluva group to leave. I didn’t really want to, but it definitely was an opportunity that I could not turn down.”

Wardenburg enjoys his new colleagues in South Dakota, who have the same goals Wardenburg does.

“It’s a great staff. It’s a very young staff, but a great young staff,” Wardenburg said. “We’re all very focused on trying to get this thing to the next level, be deeper in the playoffs, be a legitimate threat to win the national title every year. It feels very natural. A lot of

guys are like me, young, trying to go as far as they can in this profession.”

Wardenburg will have his two starting tackles back this fall. Senior Jesse Springer has been a threeyear starter at right tackle and an All-Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference player. Trey Pipkens is a junior at left tackle. He sat out the spring with an injury.

A host of underclassmen were vying for positions this spring.

“They are very young, physical, intelligent players,” Wardenburg said. “As an offensive line coach two things you want to see are a kid by physical and play smart and make adjustments on the fly. We have a lot of those guys. Spring ball has been very fun. The sophomores and freshmen are having good springs. We’ll feel better about depth, see who the starters are in fall camp. We’re expecting good things in this stretch.”

HARLAN — The Creston boys relay units have hit their strides in several different events.

The 4x100 and 4x400 units for the eighth grade class set new school record times at Friday’s meet in Harlan.

The 4x100 unit, made up of Gavin Shawler, Keagan Trembly, Clayton Stafford and Cael Kralik ran a new school-record time of 49.40 seconds.

Sioux Falls has been a perennial power at the NAIA level over the years, and again at the Division II level, having moved up in 2011.

Last season, the Cougars went 12-1 and before falling in the second round of the Division II playoffs to Harding 27-24 in overtime.

The atmosphere surrounding the football program at Sioux Falls was a big lure for Wardenburg, having been around a like-minded culture at Northwest Missouri State and at Iowa Western.

“That’s the biggest bright spot is all the tradition,” Wardenburg said. “It’s very similar to what I was in. Every program is a little different as far as having a fan base. Kids believe they’re going to win. You don’t have to instill a program so

and different.

“They’re not extremely different. The front nine is more country clubish, while the back nine is more open, a little longer. The boys get the best of both worlds,” Thomson said.

The girls will have tests at Nishna Hills.

“Nishna Hills is another fun course,” Thomson said.

“It’s great that a town has two 18 hole courses.”

That’s nice.”

He learned much of the how-to’s in recruiting at Iowa Western.

“When you recruit at a two-year level, you recruit everybody,” Wardenburg said. “In Division II, it’s more recruiting a higher base. The higher percentage of kids are high school kids.

At the junior college level, you’re still recruiting high school kids, then kids who drop down, guys coming from a four year to school to a two-year school. You get that experience. I got to experience everything to do with recruiting. That’s one of the of the big plusses coming from Iowa Western was the two-year experience. I got experience it. That’s some-

experience made me a better coach.”

The football side of the culture is one where winning is important, but not the end all.

“It’s not a situation where there’s so much pressure that if you lose you’re going to get fired,” Wardenburg said. “Winning is a high priority, but a high priority is character. Things like that are more important. You don’t get into this profession to lose. Having the ability to expect to win and coach in a situation where kids come in where winning is very important and compete at a high level is great.”

It’s another thing that was so attractive to this job was going in surrounded by people who are very much like-minded, who have things in order.”

The atmosphere within the program allows Wardenburg to be open about his faith.

2017 Adams County Speedway

G N I C RA Update

Joey Logano starts from the back and ends up front RICHMOND, Va. – Going from the back to the front to win at Richmond International Raceway is certainly possible and not unheard of.

Doing it the way Joey Logano did on Sunday in the Toyota Owners 400 is still impressive.

Logano qualified fifth on Friday but had to start at the back after a transmission change. In a race that was all about track position – the car up front stayed there for extended periods – Logano worked his way up methodically early in the race and was in position to get fresh tires and still stay ahead of all the other cars that did the same when the final caution came out on Lap 378 of 400.

That sequence followed a more pivotal stop on the previous caution with 85 laps to go when crew chief Todd Gordon had Logano stay out as others got tires so that Logano could gain the final chunk of track position he would need should the next caution fall their way.

Did that call by Gordon

make Logano nervous?

“I didn’t really discuss it much with Todd,” Logano said. “My thought process was, ‘Oh no!’ right after we stayed out. But we were able to maintain the lead.

“I don’t think we would have been able to win the race and hold off Kyle (Busch) if it had stayed green.

(But the final) caution came out.

“The boys had a great stop, which gave us good track position to pass the cars that stayed out. We were able to have a good start, work our way past those cars and tried to take off the best I could. ... We executed under pressure today and brought a car home that was a fifth-10th-place car home to Victory Lane.”

It still wasn’t a done deal for Logano, as one more caution could have meant a restart with his Team Penske teammate Brad Keselowski lining up second to challenge him. If Logano thought his car was at best a 10th-place one, Keselowski’s appeared to be the best

for much of the day, leading 110 laps to Logano’s 25.

“I was just hoping for another restart or the race to get extended for another 10 laps,” Keselowski said. “I think we had a ton of longrun speed today. That short run at the end ... half the field came (to pit), half the field didn’t.

“I just got stuck in a lane of cars that didn’t go. By the time I did, (Logano) had a whole straightaway on me.

I got it down to a couple of car lengths at the end. All in all, I’m happy for Team Penske with the one-two finish.

We’ll take it and move on.”

The biggest issue for many on a day that featured a slick track was tire management and limiting mistakes. Tire management was tougher for some than others as any contact with another car seemed to cut a tire and send a driver into a spin like a chariot scene from “Ben Hur” within a lap or two of contact.

“Well, we got three-wide right on the start and then the 5 (Kasey Kahne) ran us

up into the fence,” said Erik Jones, who was out of the race after only five laps and finished last. “I was trying not to wreck everybody, and we got run into the wall by the 5 and then a couple laps later we cut a left front, so it’s really unfortunate.”

The drivers didn’t seem to be bothered by the heat – despite some crews reporting in-car temperatures as high as 141 degrees – because it made for good racing throughout the grid. In a race that has traditionally been run at night, Sunday’s race was different for the drivers.

“Yeah, you know, the night – Richmond is such a great day or night race – I like racing at night here just as much as I like racing during the day,” said Denny Hamlin, who finished third.

But it just seems like during the day, you really can make up some positions because the track is so slippery – that if you have a little bit more grip than the person in front of you, typically you can make a move.

“Where nighttime the speeds are a little faster, you’re always buried on the bottom for the most part, and it’s a little bit tougher to pass. So it just makes the racing a little bit better, the slicker the conditions.”

What really seems to have Hamlin concerned is how far behind he believes his Joe Gibbs Racing team and teammates – they’re still winless this year – are behind other teams, particularly Team Penske.

“We haven’t gotten better,” he said. “We’re really right where we were. I mean, if we go to a mile and a half (track) next week, we’re just as far off as what we were a

POET BIOREFINNING MODIFIEDS

week ago. Literally (Richmond is) just a short track, and so the driver can make a little bit more difference in aerodynamics and skew, and all that stuff doesn’t matter quite as much. But it’s still an issue for us.

“You’ve still got to have raw speed. You cannot just have a better setup than those guys and go out and beat them. You have to have a faster car, and we just you know, I’m optimistic. I hate to be pessimistic about today, but we’ve got to be real about it and realize, ‘Hey, it’s just a short track.’

“We still have a lot of work to do to catch up.”

WNBA set to stream 20 games a season on Twitter NEW YORK (AP) — The WNBA will stream 20 games a year over the next few seasons on Twitter in a deal announced Monday night. “We are thrilled to bring live WNBA games to Twitter, which will allow us to further showcase our league to a global audience,�

WNBA President Lisa Borders said. “This partnership displays Twitter’s extraordinary commitment to women’s sports and the rising popularity of our athletes and our game.�

It’s the first women’s sport to be live-streamed on Twitter.

The inaugural game will be the Dallas Wings against the Phoenix Mercury on May 14. “We are thrilled to be a part of the WNBA’s first live stream on Twitter,� Dallas Wings president and chief executive officer Greg Bibb said. “This historic partnership between the league and Twitter will allow our fans to engage with our brand in a new, exciting way and we look forward to our four games on this dynamic and interactive platform as well as all WNBA

contests featured this season and beyond.�

The agreement also includes the WNBA joining Twitter’s Amplify program, which will include 40 highlight packages per week being featured across Twitter.

Streaming games on Twitter isn’t the only growth the WNBA is seeing this season.

More games will be televised locally than last year. “We are excited to help extend the reach of women’s sports around the world by collaborating further with the NBA to be the home of weekly live WNBA games for the next three seasons,�

Twitter chief operating officer Anthony Noto said. “The growing women’s basketball fanbase will be able to turn to Twitter to watch free games side by side with the real-time conversation.�

The games on Twitter are exclusive to the social media platform and aren’t on local or national TV. Twitter is paying the WNBA an undisclosed amount to stream the games.

The WNBA regular season tips off May 13.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — They may not have lost themselves in the music or the moment but a judge and nine lawyers in a New Zealand courtroom did listen politely to Eminem’s “Lose Yourself� as a copyright trial involving the country’s ruling political party began Monday.

The Detroit-based music publishers for Eminem are suing New Zealand’s conservative National Party, alleging the soundtrack for a 2014 election campaign ad copied the rapper’s acclaimed 2002 song. Titled “Eminem Esque,� the track has the familiar urgent, pulsing beat of the original.

The party has previously said it purchased the track through an Australian-based supplier and doesn’t believe it has infringed anyone’s copyright.

In 2014, when the case was filed, lawmaker Steven Joyce said he thought the use of the song was “pretty legal,� and that Eminem’s team “are just having a crack and a bit of an eye for the main chance because it’s an election campaign.�

That response was widely ridiculed, including by comedian John Oliver on “Last Week Tonight.�

Spokespeople for both Joyce and the National Party said Monday they wouldn’t be commenting while the case was before the court.

Garry Williams, the lawyer for Eminem’s music publishers Eight Mile Style, told the High Court in Wellington that the National Party had wanted a song

that was edgy and modern but showed the party was dependable. He said the music fared better with focus groups than a classical piece.

He quoted from National Party emails, including one in which the song is described as an Eminem “sound-alike� and another in which an agent for the party wrote “I guess the question we’re asking, if everyone thinks it’s Eminem, and it’s listed as Eminem Esque, how can we be confident that Eminem doesn’t say we’re ripping him off?�

Williams said the emails showed it was “utterly clear� the party knew it was using a copyrighted song.

Speaking outside the court, Joel Martin, a spokesman for Eminem’s music publishers, said he was surprised the two sides hadn’t settled and that going to trial against an entity like a governing political party was unusual and extraordinary. “The bottom line is we would never have permitted the use of the song in any political advertisement,� he said.

Martin said the publishers are seeking both a cash settlement for an undisclosed amount and an acknowledgement by the court that the National Party breached copyright. He said that by pursuing the case, they are showing they take copyright infringement around the world seriously.

He said the political views of the National Party were not a factor: “We are Americans and we don’t know about politics in New Zealand,� he said.
