Portions of West Adams Street to be closed beginning Tuesday

Man accused in jail escape to be held in another Iowa county SIOUX CITY (AP) — Authorities say a man accused of killing a deputy and wounding another while escaping from an Iowa county jail before being recaptured in Nebraska will be held at a different county jail once he returns to Iowa.

Twenty-three-year-old Wesley Correa-Carmenaty agreed to extradition during a hearing Thursday in Omaha.

Woodbury County Sheriff Dave Drew said Correa-Car-

West Adams Street in Creston will be closed from Bureau Street through Cottonwood Road beginning Tuesday, as the 2017 Adams Street reconstruction project continues.

Kevin Kruse, public works director, said he expects the road to be closed through the end of July.

It could possibly be done earlier if it stays dry.

The bridge project is nearly complete, with just grading and seeding remaining to complete the bridge project.

“ A l l the conc r e t e has been poured,” Kruse said. “All the infrastructure Kruse is in, so it’s down to the grading and the seeding.”

The next phase of the project will pick up where the bridge project left off on West Adams Street and continue up through the Park Street intersection.

The project consists of removing Adams Street’s surface and placing a new concrete street from Park

Senate wary on ‘Obamacare’ repeal, bumpy path ahead WASHINGTON (AP) — Republicans are claiming a triumph by pushing their legislative centerpiece scuttling much of President Barack Obama’s health care law through the House.

It was a perilous journey, and its Senate pathway will be at least as bumpy with little doubt the measure will change, assuming it survives.

Thursday’s 217-213 House passage — with 20

GOP defections — was preceded by several near-death experiences for the legislation, even though repealing Obama’s statute helped guide Donald Trump’s presidential run and multitudes of GOP congressional campaigns.

And that was in a chamber Republicans control 238-193. Had just two additional Republicans voted CARE | 2A

Street to the Taylor Park area. The intersections of Adams Street at Park and McKinley streets will also be reconstructed.

Also included in the project is the reconstruction of the recreational trail’s intersection at Adams and McKinley streets.

The walking trail will be closed at that intersection during the reconstruction process.

Currently, the trail crosses West Adams Street and then crosses McKinley Street.

“The walking trail will be rerouted from where it is now to crossing just west of the McKinley Street intersection,” Kruse said.

“They’re going to reroute that so the walkers only have to cross Adams Street. There will be some reconstruction for the walking trail path to move it over to get the old and new trail system to line up with each other.”

Austin Smith of Garden and Associates said in February the project would also include the addition of a sidewalk on the north side of West Adams Street, which would connect the current sidewalk to the recreational trail system.

“It’s kind of an odd configuration right now. It’s ADAMS | 2A

Jury: Univ. of Iowa discriminated against athletic official DES MOINES (AP) — A jury on Thursday awarded more than $1.4 million to a former University of Iowa athletic administrator, ruling that the university had discriminated against her because of her gender and sexual orientation.

Jane Meyer alleged she suffered workplace discrimination as a gay woman in a relationship with the school’s longtime and highly successful field hockey coach Tracey Griesbaum, that the school retaliated against her for complaining about Griesbaum’s firing, and that she was paid less than a male counterpart for similar work.

Judge Michael D. Huppert said the eight-person jury found in favor of Meyer on all five counts.

“This is for everyone who has fought for discrimination,” Meyer said. “It’s much bigger than Jane Meyer.”

The trial lasted nearly three weeks and featured testimony from Iowa football coach Kirk Ferentz and wrestling coach Tom Brands.

The jury began deliberating Wednesday and delivered its sealed verdict on Thursday. Meyer’s attorney, Jill Zwagerman, said she expects Iowa to appeal the verdict — partly IOWA | 2A

because of the size of the award.

But Zwagerman also said that the $374,000 in lost wages the jury awarded to Meyer can be tripled under Iowa law because the jury found Iowa’s actions to be willful. Zwagerman also said that they will file a request through the courts to investigate claims of gender discrimination at Iowa.

A lawsuit filed against the university by Griesbaum is set to begin early next month.

Meyer, who was Iowa’s top assistant and the top ranking female athletics administrator for a decade, filed the lawsuit after being transferred to another department soon after Griesbaum was fired. Meyer’s job was eliminated in 2016.

Meyer’s lawyers closed their case by bringing up a memo from Meyer to athletic director Gary Barta that outlined many of the concerns of gender and sexual discrimination that ultimately led her to sue her former employer. A day after Meyer gave the memo to Barta, she was reassigned outside of athletics. “This is a landmark case....Jane is amazing. She stood up and fought for herself and a lot of other women,� Zwagerman said.

Meyer’s lawyers also brought up an email from the university acknowledging that it was moving Meyer from the department because Griesbaum had threatened to sue the school and that she had made their relationship

public through The Associated Press.

Coaches Ferentz, Brands and Heller criticized Meyer as not being responsive to their requests, especially involving plans to improve athletics facilities. Barta testified some coaches were no longer willing to work with Meyer, prompting him to decide to hire Gene Taylor as his deputy.

Iowa Assistant Attorney General George Carroll told jurors that Meyer ultimately was moved out of the department because she had behaved “intolerably� in the months following Griesbaum’s firing. Carroll also argued that Iowa had no history of discrimination against gay coaches.

Jurors awarded Meyer $444,000 in past emotional distress and $612,000 in future emotional distress in addition to lost wages, according to Huppert.

Iowa spokeswoman Jeneane Beck said the “university is disappointed by the jury’s decision� but had no further comment.

Still, the ruling was a blow to Barta, who has been with Iowa since 2006 and received a contract extension in early 2016 that guarantees him $4.6 million in compensation through 2021.

As for Meyer, she said throughout the trial that her career in athletics was likely finished no matter what the jury decided. But after winning on every count, Meyer might reconsider that stance. “I would love for an institution to hire me. To stand up and say ‘You know what? She stood up and wants to do the right thing.’�

Iowa Gov. Branstad signs abortion, voter ID bills into law DES MOINES (AP) — Iowa Governor Terry Branstad has signed three bills dealing with abortion, voter identification and m e d i c a l Branstad malpractice.

The abortion bill signed Friday morning prohibits the procedure in most cases after 20 weeks of pregnancy and requires a 72-hour waiting period. Abortion-rights groups have indicated they will fight

the law in the Iowa Supreme Court. Branstad called it a significant stride for the anti-abortion movement.

The voter identification measure requires voters to show ID at polls starting in 2019 and reduces Iowa’s early voting period, which opponents say will suppress turnout. Republicans say it is necessary to protect against voter fraud, while acknowledging the problem is rare.

The medical malpractice law restricts some payouts to patients who win such lawsuits, though juries can override the cap in some instances.

“no,� the measure would have lost because bills need majorities to pass. Now, Republicans must try maneuvering the measure through a Senate terrain that is different politically and procedurally from the House. “We must manage expectations and remain focused on the art of the doable as we move forward,� said Senate Finance Committee Chairman Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, among several cautionary statements issued by Senate Republicans after the House vote.

The House bill would end the Obama law’s fines on people who don’t purchase policies and erase its taxes on health industry businesses and higher-earning people. It would dilute Obama’s consumer-friendly insurance coverage requirements, like letting states permit insurers to charge higher premiums for customers with pre-existing medical conditions.

The measure would replace Obama’s federal subsidies for lower-income insurance buyers with tax credits geared to consumers’ ages. And it would cut Medicaid, the health insurance program for the poor and disabled, including ending extra federal payments 31 states are accepting to expand Medicaid to cover more people.

CORNING – Reconciled, a southern and contemporary gospel quartet, will be performing 7 p.m.

Saturday, May 6, at the Corning Opera House Cultural Center, 800 Davis Ave., in Corning. The quartet will provide an enthusiastic, entertaining and unforgettable concert with their rich four-part harmonies that leave concert goers wanting more.

Reconciled is one of the opera-house crowd’s favorite. The members started performing together in the Southwest Iowa Concert Chorale in 2005. In 2010, they realized they all had an interest in Southern Gospel music and started singing four-part harmony. Group members are Mike Harvey (lead) who pastors three Presbyterian Churches in Carson, Wales and Sharon; Terra Marsden (tenor) who is a private music

instructor; Tim Marsden (baritone) who teaches Red Oak High School vocal music; Jim Dunbar (bass) who manages Cyclone Cattle at Macedonia

WASHINGTON (AP) — Hiring in the United States rebounded in April as employers added a brisk 211,000 jobs, a reassuring sign that the economy’s slump in the first three months of the year will likely prove temporary.

The unemployment rate dipped to 4.4 percent — its lowest point in a decade — from 4.5 percent in March, the Labor Department said Friday .

The figures suggest that businesses expect consumer demand to rebound after a lackluster first quarter, when Americans increased spending at the slowest

pace in seven years, and will need more employees.

So far this year, employers have added an average of 185,000 jobs a month, matching last year’s solid pace. It shows that so far the job market under President Donald Trump closely resembles the one Barack Obama presided over in 2016.

Average paychecks did grow more slowly in April, increasing 2.5 percent over the past 12 months, below March’s year-over-year gain.

It means companies may not yet feel much pressure to

lower-income people.

States that did not expand Medicaid under Obama’s law are looking for additional funding for their programs. Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., whose state did not enlarge Medicaid, said he would not back a health care bill “that rewards people for taking Medicaid expansion at the expense of those who did not.�

Then there are senators like Ted Cruz of Texas and Rand Paul of Kentucky, former presidential candidates who seldom back away from fights and have already signaled they’re looking for changes.

The Republican edge in the Senate is just 52-48. Using special rules, the Senate could pass its version of the bill with just 50 votes and rely on Vice President Mike Pence to break a tie.

But that means they can lose just two GOP senators assuming Democrats uniformly oppose scrapping Obama’s signature domestic achievement.

Those same bylaws bar provisions that aren’t chiefly aimed at federal spending or revenue, meaning some House language dealing strictly with policy changes could fall out. “The Senate will now finish work on our bill, but will take the time to get it right,� said Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn. He chairs the Senate health committee.

that I don’t support the House bill as currently constructed,� said Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio. He cited its Medicaid cuts, including for treating people with drug problems, and said he’d make sure that “those who are impacted by this epidemic can continue to receive treatment.�

In March, Portman joined three other GOP senators in opposing Medicaid cuts in an early version of the House legislation. In a letter to McConnell, they wrote that the measure “does not provide stability and certainty for individuals and families� who use the program.

Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said the House bill poses “more questions than answers about its consequences.� She said there should be “no barrier for coverage� for people with pre-existing medical conditions and that the House’s tax credits “do not adequately take into account income levels� or regional differences in health costs.

Collins and Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, have opposed cutting federal money for Planned Parenthood. The House bill blocks federal payments for a year to the organization, which provides abortions but doesn’t use federal funds for them by law.

Other senators are also seeking changes. No. 3 Senate GOP leader John Thune of South Dakota is working on a plan to skew the bill’s tax subsidies more toward

The notoriously understated Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., lauded the House bill as “an important step� to erasing Obama’s law but McConnell left the door open to changes. “Congress will continue to act on legislation to provide more choices and freedom in health care decisions,� McConnell said.

The House bill was written by Republicans representing districts often drawn to incorporate strong majorities of GOP voters.

Senators represent entire states, and many tend to reflect more pragmatic views than their House colleagues.

Several come from northeastern and Midwestern states with large numbers of low-income people receiving Medicaid. Many of the 31 states that accepted Obama’s expansion of that program are led by GOP governors, and senators have no interest in cutting their states’ funds and taking coverage away from voters.

Republican senators also represent states ravaged by deaths caused by opioid abuse. The House measure would let states escape Obama’s requirement that insurers cover anti-drug services. “I’ve already made clear

HINTS FROM HELOISE Sweet-smelling suitcase

HOROSCOPE For Saturday, May 6, 2017 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Someone older or in a position of authority might rain on your parade at work today. Don’t let this get you down, because it’s temporary.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)This is a poor day for important discussions about how to divide an inheritance or dealing with shared property, because obstacles will arise. People will oppose you.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Your relationship with a family member especially a female (Mom?) might be tense today.

People are judgmental; they might even be critical and grouchy. Yikes!

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)Just face what you have to do today and get it done. This is the kind of day where life feels hard. But we all are experiencing this. You’re not alone.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Someone might criticize how you spend money today, which will not please you. Leos have their own approach to spending - it’s that simple. So what?

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept.

22) You might feel depressed today. It seems like no matter where you look or turn, there is a lack of optimism or flexibility among others. This is no fun!

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You might cut people out of your life today. Perhaps you do this for your own self-protection, but in the end, you are only in a prison. Tomorrow is a friendly day.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)Someone older or more experienced might be critical of you today, especially when in a group or in class. This is discouraging. Hang in there until tomorrow, which is a better day.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is a poor day to ask parents, teachers and bosses for permission or approval, because they won’t give it to you. People are tightfisted and a bit negative today.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Travel plans look expensive. Even your interest in talking to someone from another culture suddenly is just not there. You’ve lost your sense of adventure!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) This is a poor day to discuss how to share or divide anything, because people will be stingy and uncooperative.

Ironically, tomorrow is a much better day!

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20)Relationships with partners and close friends are stiff and stilted today. It’s sort of like two ships passing in the night.

Just let it go - tomorrow is just fine.

YOU BORN TODAY You love beauty in your surroundings, and you need harmony in your relationships. This is a social and happy year with bright and cheerful vibra-

tions. Broaden your social circle to include new contacts.

Romance and love affairs may bloom. You want to live life to its fullest. This year is a year of choice. You might face an important decision. Happiness is having alternatives.

CROSSWORD PUZZLE

Dear Heloise: You know those PERFUME SAMPLES that come in magazines, the ones where you peel back a fold and you can sniff the fragrance? I take those and toss them inside my luggage to keep the inside smelling nice. – Lacy N., Kalamazoo, Mich.

TRAVELING WITH OLD CLOTHING Dear Heloise: My hint has to do with travel. I save wornout clothing, socks, leggings and underwear, and pack those as part of my clothing.

As these garments become dirty and worn, I simply throw them away. It frees up room in my suitcase for souvenirs, and I’m not hauling around dirty, stinky clothes.

Best of all, the amount of laundry to be washed when you return is less. – Cynthia S., Colome, S.D. SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O. Box 795000 San Antonio, TX 782795000 Fax: 1-210-HELOISE Email: Heloise(at)Heloise.com

SAVE ENERGY, SAVE MONEY Dear Heloise: The cost of heating and cooling a home is expensive. To save energy – and save money while you’re at it – I highly recommend the following: * Clean or replace the filters on air conditioners once a month, or as recommended by the manufacturer. * During the summer, keep curtains and window coverings closed during the warmest part of the day in order to keep the heat at bay. * Ceiling fans are less expensive to run than an air conditioner, and they keep air moving in the room. * Floor fans also are a cost-efficient way to keep the house cooler by forcing air through the house. – Jean D., Lowell, Mass.

Jean, it’s always a good idea to save energy, and this may become increasingly important in the coming years.

– Heloise COUNTING SEATS Dear Heloise: It’s very important to count the rows of seats on a plane from your row to the nearest exit. In

SUDOKU

case of an emergency, this would prevent a jam at the front of the plane in which only a small number of people could get out. In a smokefilled cabin, this would at least allow you to feel your way out of the plane. – Linda F., Austin, Texas OLD CHECKBOOK COVER Dear Heloise: Got an old checkbook cover lying around? You can use it as a coupon organizer and a place to store receipts or business cards. – Wendy K., Carson City, Nev. Wendy, that’s a great idea!

Thanks for the tip. – Heloise FRIDAY FUN FACTS Dear Readers: * Education is an important part of a Japanese person’s life, which is why the literacy rate in Japan is almost 100 percent. * In case you are short on time in Paris, a good way to see the attractions is to take a boat ride along the Seine River, because almost all the main sights are on the banks of the river. – Heloise (c)2017 by King Features Syndicate Inc.

CLUB NEWS Creston Lions

Creston Lions met 6:30 p.m. May 2 at the Pizza Ranch. Mike Duckworth, president, opened the meeting and led in the flag ceremony. The invocation was given by Delmer Brown. Ralph Dillinger introduced the guest speaker, Dick Anderson.

Following the meal, Anderson, president of Union County Historical Society, gave information about the work of the society. There are nine members on the board of directors who are all volunteers. Much of the responsibilities of the society include the care of the Union County Historical Complex located at McKinley Park. A number of other community citizens also help with various projects associated with the complex. Recent efforts include switching around some sections of the complex. There is a new employee who works 29 hours a month helping with maintenance. Funding is provided through grants and private donations.

There are nine historical buildings which have been donated to the complex.

They all have a connection with Union County. A recent acquisition is a large bell bought by Ted Ide and donated to the complex.

There are other church and school bells that have been donated and will be located in the appropriate places. The society is in the process of placing a sign at each of the 99 locations where one-room school houses were located in the county. Numerous events take place at the complex throughout the year, especially over July 4. Weddings and other photography events are occasionally held in the park, tour groups visit, demonstrations take place especially for school children, treasure hunts are held and more. Volunteers from Creston Lions will soon be helping with placing tiles in the ceiling of the church basement in the park.

New officers for 2017-18 were announced and will be installed at the June 6 meeting to be held at the Pizza Ranch. The treasurer’s report was presented and approved.

Growth is picking and has stabilized in China. tory output. utility bills during an unseasonably warm winter.

That’s likely to prove a temporary restraint.

And the housing market is reaching new heights as home sales and construction march upward even though a limited number of properties are for sale.

Sales of existing homes jumped in March to their highest level in more than a decade.

The retail industry’s woes continued last month, with stores adding just 6,000 jobs. That’s below their long-run average and comes after retailers slashed a combined 55,000 jobs in February and March.

Traditional chains like Sears and Macy’s have been shedding jobs in the face of ferocious competition from Amazon.com and other e-commerce companies. Many traditional retailers are rapidly building up their own online storefronts and expanding their warehousing and logistics divisions. But those functions are less labor-intensive and are unlikely to fully offset the job losses at physical stores.

Factories have mostly recovered over the past six months from nearly two years of struggle. Plummeting oil prices had caused drilling firms to slash orders for steel pipe, machinery and other equipment.

raise pay to find or keep the workers they need.

Typically, employers feel compelled to pay more as the number of unemployed dwindles. In a strong economy, hourly pay gains tend to average around 3.5 percent.

“The U.S. job market is in solid shape,” said Gus Faucher, chief economist at PNC Financial Services.

Monthly job gains at the current pace should eventually help push up wages, Faucher added.

In an encouraging trend, the number of part-time workers who would prefer full-time jobs fell in April to the lowest level in nine years. This is a sign that many employers are meeting rising demand by shifting more part-timers to full-time work — even if they aren’t raising hourly pay significantly.

And in fact, hiring was strongest last month in lower-paying industries. One such category that includes hotels, restaurants, casinos and amusement parks added 55,000 jobs, the most of any major sector.

Health care, which includes some higher-paying jobs in nursing as well as lower-paid home health care aides, added 37,000 jobs in April. Banking and other financial services added 19,000.

Construction added just 5,000 jobs, after much larger gains earlier this year.

Factories hired 6,000, the fewest for that category in five months.

The report adds to evidence that economic growth is rebounding in the current April-June quarter, with some economists forecasting that it could top a 3 percent annual rate, compared with the first quarter’s 0.7 percent rate. Last

DNR NEWS State parks Camping Kickoff is this weekend IOWA DNR

It looks like the cold rainy weather is breaking just in time for the weekend when state park campgrounds will celebrate Camping Kickoff, Saturday, May 6.

State park campgrounds will feature special hikes, demonstrations, fishing clinics and much more to celebrate the start of the season.

A full schedule of programs is available at www.iowadnr.gov/ campingkickoff. Campers will also receive a free May/June issue of Iowa Outdoors magazine.

“We are looking forward to this season opener and to welcoming visitors and campers to our parks,” says Todd Coffelt, chief of state parks for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources.

Last year, Iowa’s state parks welcomed more than 15 million visitors, and more than 900,000 of these were overnight stays.

Campers will need to use walk-in camping.

Iowa’s Camping Kickoff is in conjunction with the national Let’s Camp America! initiative when state parks across the country will celebrate the start of the camping season.

Spring walleye netting season exceeds goal The Iowa Department of Natural Resources’ spring fish spawning season is over and Iowa’s two walleye hatcheries are filled to capacity.

Netting crews collected enough walleye to produce 1,116 quarts of walleye eggs at the Spirit Lake hatchery and 914 quarts at the Rathbun hatchery.

“Our goal was to collect 1,774 quarts of walleye eggs to produce 158 million walleye fry that we can stock in Iowa lakes,” said Jay Rudacille, DNR warm and coolwater fish culture supervisor. “We collected 2,030 quarts which is over 14 percent more than our goal.”

Walleyes were caught at East and West Okoboji lakes, Spirit Lake, Storm Lake, Clear Lake and Rathbun Lake from April 4-11. The effort from all the lakes combined collected more than 249 million eggs.

Fisheries staff netted over 2,800 walleyes on Big Spirit Lake, East Okoboji Lake and West Okoboji Lake in seven nights. Roughly half of the walleyes caught were female. The Spirit Lake Hatchery also cultures muskie and northern pike.

CEDAR RAPIDS — After falling 20-0 to Kirkwood on Wednesday, the

Southwestern Community College softball team has roared back with consecutive wins to advance to the NJCAA Region XI-B title game against the same Kirkwood squad.

The Spartans fended off two opponents in win or go home situations, shutting out Ellsworth 4-0 and defeating 16th-ranked Iowa Lakes 7-4, both on Thurs-

day, to advance.

Spartans pitcher Katlyn Schiefen hurled two of her best outings of the year, including Schiefen her first collegiate shutout to extend Southwestern’s season.

“It was great to see her do well, but our defense really stepped up behind her (Schiefen)” coach Paige Cassady said. “We limited the errors and Katlyn kept the ball inside the park so that our defense could make plays.”

Schiefen also hit a tworun home run in the Iowa Lakes win, and tallied five RBIs.

Abby Davis went 4-for-6 with two doubles and two RBIs for Southwestern.

A win against Kirkwood would make the Spartans the Region XI-B champs and would advance them to district compeition. The game is slated for Friday (today) at noon.

Full stats from the game were unavailable as of press time.

HAWKEYE 10 TRACK AND FIELD

Creston girls fourth at Hawkeye 10 Panther youth shines, Creston wins 4x800 for fourth straight year

DENISON — With two events remaining in Thursday’s Hawkeye 10 meet in Denison, the Creston girls track and field team held a slim lead over three foes in what was a hyper-competitive conference championship outing.

The Panthers were overtaken in team points in the final two relays of the evening and fell to fourth place with 97 points, but it could hardly put a damper on Creston’s night.

Throughout the spring, the Panthers have dealt with injuries and sickness coming out of winter sports season. Creston and its 16 competitors showed strongly throughout its roster on a championship night, with two seniors, Rachel Shepherd and Hannah Hood, leading the way as an example for a roster full of underclassmen.

The Panthers grabbed two first-place finishes: Hood with a throw of 41 feet, 5 inches in the shot put and the top spot in the 4x800 by the team of Jesse Vicker, Shepherd, MaKenna Hudson and Brielle Baker.

The win marked Hood’s first Hawkeye 10 title. She also took fourth in the dis-

cus.

Creston coach Clay Arnold was not satisfied as whole, but he was excited by plenty of the Panthers running times throughout the evening.

“We saw some girls run some good times and some

good performances tonight, but not what we expected,” Arnold said.

The dissatisfaction came partly with losing the second-place spot late, as Denison Schleswig had ran away with the team title earlier, paving the way early to a ro-

bust 147 points.

“We knew coming in that we were going to have to share some of the points among everyone because there’s a lot of good individuals and we were hoping that it would take away from Denison,” Creston senior

Rachel Shepherd said.

Shepherd set a personal record in the 400 hurdles, 1:11.35, to take fourth, ran a season best in the first leg of the third-place sprint medley unit, ran on the fourthplace 4x100 group and of CRESTON | 2S

PANTHER GIRLS SOCCER

Knoxville beats the buzzer Goal in 77th minute sinks Panthers, 5-4 ■

By LARRY PETERSON CNA senior feature writer lpeterson@crestonnews.com

With the teams knotted at 4-4 and seemingly headed toward overtime, Knoxville sophomore Amber VanderVeer suddenly broke past two Creston defenders in the 77th minute and blasted a shot over Creston goalkeeper Leah Schuler to the top shelf of the net.

From there the Knoxville defense held off Creston’s desperate attempts to set up a scoring opportunity and

came away with a 5-4 victory.

In the 53rd minute Creston had held a 4-3 lead thanks to a direct kick goal

by Grace Root.

Having scored twice earlier in the match, Root finished with her first career hat trick in the loss.

When one of Root’s shots hit the goal post in the first half, freshman Lexi Rounds was ready in position to knock in the ricochet shot for her second goal of the season.

Root, a sophomore, now has seven goals.

But, it wasn’t quite enough as the Panthers fell to 1-8 for the season, with four of those defeats by one goal. Knoxville improved to 4-5.

Knoxville owns a pair of

10-0 victories over Centerville this season, but otherwise had scored only four goals this season.

Creston coach Kim Lauffer said it was another missed opportunity, as her team rallied from a 3-2 halftime deficit to score the first two goals of the second half.

“There were positives for us and the girls worked hard,” Lauffer said. “But, this leaves a bitter taste. We had two games this week that we were capable of winning.”

Chariton took a 4-1 decision Tuesday on the Panthers’ field.

CRESTON BOYS GOLF

Panther boys golf fights through off day

By RYAN KRONBERG CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

CHARITON — Creston’s boys golf team could not dial in its game at Thursday’s Chariton Tournament at Lake View Golf & Country Club.

The Panthers placed fourth with a 363.

Winterset easily won eight-team tournament with a 313. Centerville

was second with a 322, followed

by Albia with a 344. Clarke was eighth with a 412.

“It just wasn’t our day,” said Creston coach Jon Thomson.

Course conditions were not optimal in Lucas County, but the Panthers could not overcome it.

“The course was wet and windy, but it was not an excuse for our play,” Thomson said.

The Panthers can take away plenty from Thursday.

“This is an eye opener for us to buckle down with the postseason approaching fast,” Thomson said.

Creston was led by Kyle Somers’ sixth-place round of 79. Michael Stults carded an 85, while Brayton Chesnut had a 97.

Beau Thompson had his best round of the season, a 118.

“Big improvement from Beau Thompson,” Thomson said.

place 4x100 group and of course, ran the first leg on the winning 4x800 team.

Baker made up ground with a crucial final leg in the 4x800, overtaking Glenwood’s Lacey Jackson as Creston won in 10:15.12, which was was a season’s best by more than five seconds.

The Panthers have shuffled lineups several times with the 800, and found the right combination to win in the relay for the fourth consecutive year at the conference meet.

“It has been our bread and butter for a long time,” Arnold said. “The best part is we’ve done it in a lot of different ways and a lot of different girls.”

Shepherd ran a personal best in the second leg after Vicker’s start, freshman MaKenna Hudson picked things up in leg three, and Baker carried the Panthers to victory. The come-frombehind win, even though expected, left Arnold with a wide grin afterward.

“We saw that race unfolding like that,” Arnold said.

“Didn’t think we’d have that much of a gap to make up, but we knew that they didn’t have an anchor like we do.”

Baker’s final leg wasn’t her only important showing of the night. She took third in the open 1,500 in a season’s best time and went for third in the open 800.

Denison girls since middle school so I knew what they had,” Baker said about the two Denison-Schleswig runners, Ellie Mendlik and Raegan Andersen, who took first and second in the 1,500. “My goal was just to stay up with them the whole time and PR and that’s what I did. I just wanted to run a smart race.

Get out fast.”

Hudson also comfortably PR’d in the 800 on her way to fifth place.

Developing youth Creston’s youth showed up in a big way Thursday, as Baker was far from the lone underclassman to pop up in

the points column.

Freshmen like Hudson, Kiersten Latham, Brittany Linch and more played vital roles in sustaining success throughout the night.

Linch easily set a PR, in 1:16.98, in the 400 hurdles to take eighth overall despite running in the slower heat.

“For Brittany to run away with the slow heat knowing that she’s got to beat people in the fast heat, that was awesome,” Arnold said.

Panther youth gained vital experience on a night where the competition was fierce.

“It’s cool to see some of the underclassmen, even the sophomores like Brielle

terville’s Colton Belloma, and the Winterset duo of Layne Kincade and Jack West tied for second with a 77.

UP NEXT — Creston is back on the course Monday at the Hawkeye 10 Conference Tournament.

and Saige (Rice) step up and lead. It’s awesome,” Shepherd said.

Rice, Maitlen and Stephanie Hemsworth were unsung heroes in several relays, making their presence known by maintaining the consistent times they have put up all season.

Others like Danielle Castillo, Breanna Wallace and Rice picked up points in the field, with Castillo going from seventh at the Hawkeye 10 meet last year in the long jump to fourth on Thursday.

“We’re very proud of her (Castillo) there,” Arnold said. She was seventh last year in the long jump, so I was very happy to see that.”

Castillo was the veteran leg of the shuttle hurdle group that hasn’t even ran a handful of times this season and took sixth. Every member of the shuttle hurdle unit ran a season’s best with a group that consisted of three freshmen.

“You’ve got to score points here and they got sixth place and I was very proud of them.” Arnold said.

“They have really stepped up.”

The Panthers did miss injured freshman Emma Hanson, who has found success at times in open and relay middle distance races, but other young Panthers stepped in to fill the void anyway.

At the end of the evening, several Panthers, and the coaching staff, reflected on ways that the evening could have gone better.

Creston cards — Kyle Somers, 79; Michael Stults, 85; Brayton Chesnut, 97; Hayden Green, 102; Beau Thompson, 118.

“You’ve got to just do what you’re capable of doing. That’s the lesson. When you’re given opportunities, you’ve got to take advantage of them,” Arnold said.

“That’s been our Achilles all year. We get opportunities and we don’t capitalize and that comes from toughness.

But the young Panther team has seen growth, and it’s apparent to the small group of upperclassmen who work alongside the young Panthers every day.

“I feel like I’ve grown a lot over the last four years. I’m happy with that,” Shepherd said. “I don’t know if I’m satisfied. There’s always more.

You always want more. But I’m pretty proud of the team that we’ve had this year.”

Baker acknowledged that she saw plenty of her teammates show up ready for Thursday.

Now the message is to get everyone on the same page and to perform to the best of everyone’s capabilities at state qualifying.

UP NEXT — Creston will run at Central Decatur on Monday before competing at state qualifying on Thursday in Norwalk.

Creston’s Camden Peterson came near his personal best in the open 400 in a time of 1:00.57, while Jared Moreland did run a PR with a 1:02.22. Peterson and Moreland ran their 800s in 2:32.56 and 2:40.30.

Hank Looney ran his 100 in 13.98 seconds and Wills finished in 14.24.

Looney also edged Wills in the 200 meter dash, 27.32 to 27.50.

“The H10 will be well-represented at the state teet and in the medal count Our boys saw what top competition is all about,” Creston coach Pat Schlapia said. “This shows where we need to get. We need to get ourselves better prepared mentally and physically to compete. We didn’t do a good job of that at this Meet. That was disappointing.

BLUEGRASS TRACK AND FIELD

Mustangs excel at Bluegrass meet

By KALEB CARTER

CNA sports reporter kacarter@crestonnews.com

LAMONI — Murray’s girls and boys track and field teams found the type of success that has been hard to come by for much of the season at Tuesday’s Bluegrass Conference meet.

The Lady Mustangs came away with the bronze, a third-place spot, while Mustang boys came in just shy of third place, finishing with 84.5 team points and a fourth-place spot.

Lamoni’s girls came in first with 145 team points.

Twin Cedars ran away with the Bluegrass title with 161 points.

The lone first-place finish from the Lady Mustangs’ 4 x 1 0 0 unit that consisted of Hailey Chew, M a c y Greif, Brandi Lecy Gilbert and Zoie Lecy.

“I was proud of the great effort from everyone that competed tonight, (Tuesday),” Murray coach Keith Shields said. “Girls won only one event (the 4x100), but we scored points in all but two events tonight and just missed a second-place overall finish.”

The Lady Mustangs found success in the 4x800 as well, earning a runner-up spot.

Individual standouts included Lecy with a second-place finishes in the 100 and 200 and a third in the 400.

“All of our other performers did a great job of getting extra points in relays and allowing us to double up in individual events,” Shields said. “They helped keep us in the running for a Top 3 finish until the end, especially with only winning one event.”

The boys’ fourth-place finish was spurred by sev-

eral quality individual finishes.

Bryce Keller posted a tie for first in the long jump with a leap of 18 feet and 5 inches, a runner-up finish in the 400 hurdles, a sixthplace finish in the discus, and was on the third-place 4x100 unit.

Dustin Teas grabbed third in the open 100 and 200, and was on the thirdplace winning 4x100 and 4x200 relay teams.

Gabe Gard finished second in the 110 hurdles as well.

The best performances for Diagonal’s boys were its 4x800 and its distance medleys, which took third place.

Kade Klommhaus also earned fourth in the 1,600 meter run.

For the girls, Maddie Lohmann and Erin Sobotka took the top two spots in the 3,000, Lohmann was fourth in the 800, and Sobotka won the 1,500.

The girls distance medley team took third, a unit Sobotka was on as well.

Orient-Macksburg received much of its point production on the girls side from the winning 4x200 unit of Cortney Gross, Kaela Eslinger, Cameo Walker and Katie Walter.

For the Bulldog boys, Blake Sevier took fourth in the discus and seventh in the shot put and Owen Hensley was sixth in the 3,200 and seventh in the 1,600.
