British soccer players with Challenger Sports, the leading provider of camps in the United States and Canada, will return to Creston in July to teach children both soccer skills and life skills, including respect, integrity and cultural competence.

“It’s an awesome camp for kids who love soccer,” said Raquel Linch, Southern Prairie YMCA office manager. “The coaches that come really get to know the kids Linch in a short time, and they make soccer fun. The kids think they’re just playing games, but they’re really developing skills.”

Southern Prairie YMCA is hosting the Challenger Sports British Soccer Camp, which will be held July 5-8 at Creston Elementary/Middle School. Two divisions will be offered: First Kicks for ages 3-5 held from 5 to 6 p.m. and Player Development for ages 6-9 and ages 10-14 held from 6 to 8 p.m.

Challenger Sports holds British Soccer, TetraBrazil and Freestyle soccer camps and clinics in more than 3,000 communities for about 150,000 players. The camps feature players from Britain who travel the United States over the summer to teach

children soccer skills.

“It’s pretty neat that they actually come all the way from Britain to teach kids how to play soccer,” said O’Neall Emi O’Neall, YMCA youth sports coordinator.

With a camp curriculum developed from the country that invented the sport, Challenger Sports offers young players an up-close and personal opportunity to experience the sport.

The organization’s coaching syllabus provides a daily regimen of foot skills, juggling, tactical practices and daily tournament play which are meant to enhance technical skill.

But, it’s not just about the game. Challenger Sports uses soccer to teach respect, integrity, leadership, sportsmanship and cultural competence. Part of the camp is a Camp World Cup, which brings both friendly competition and information about different cultures. The daily tournament gives campers the chance to represent a world cup team.

“Throughout the week, they’re on teams and they can earn points by completing challenges or winning games, and then at the end, it’s announced who the World Cup winner is,” Linch said. “They can also earn points by making flags, so each team has a different country, and they decorate flags themselves.”

Player Development is $85 per child, and First Kicks is $60 per child. The registration deadline is Monday, June 27.

To register, visit www.challengersports.com and find the campsite by plugging in Creston’s zipcode, 50801. Registration includes a ball and T-shirt.

Biden asserts Trump could trigger surge in anti-Americanism WASHINGTON (AP) — Warning of a potential surge in anti-Americanism, Vice President Joe Biden is tearing into Donald Trump’s views on foreign policy and urging the country not to follow the presumptive Republican nominee down a path of isolationism and bigotry.

Biden, in a speech Monday to the Center for New American Security, planned to deliver a point-by-point rebuttal of Trump’s ideas on immigration, terrorism and relations with Russia.

In excerpts of his speech released in advance by the White House, Biden cautioned against policies he said would make the U.S. and its neighborhood poorer, less democratic and less secure.

“Wielding the politics of fear and intolerance, like proposals to ban Muslims from entering the United States or slandering entire religious communities as complicit in terrorism, calls into question America’s status as the greatest democracy in the history of the world,” Biden planned to say.

Biden’s speech to the Washington think tank was to form his most concerted and lengthy rebuke to date of Trump, and comes as Biden and President Barack Obama are increasingly inserting themselves into the election in an attempt to stop Trump. Earlier this month both Biden and Obama endorsed Hillary Clinton, and both Democrats are expected to start campaigning aggressively for her in the coming days.

Although Biden didn’t mention Trump by name in the excerpts of his speech, his intended target was clear. On Sunday, Trump went beyond his previous calls for temporarily banning Muslim immigration by suggesting the U.S. should consider profiling Muslims already in the U.S. The Republican has also called for reinstating waterboarding and other harsh interrogation methods to try to prevent terrorist attacks.

relationship under Obama.

Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has praised Trump’s intelligence in the past, more recently dodged questions about whether he prefers Trump or Clinton and pledged to work with whoever wins.

“Embracing Putin at a time of renewed Russian aggression could call into question America’s longstanding commitment to a Europe whole, free and at peace,” Biden said. “But neither is it time to dust off the Cold War playbook.”

Though the U.S. cut off formal military ties with Russia in 2014 to protest its actions in Ukraine, the two militaries have sought to maintain lines of communication to avoid an inadvertent confrontation in Syria, where both militaries are fighting the Islamic State group but backing opposing sides in Syria’s civil war.

Biden said that as new military technologies raise the risk of a mistake or escalation, the U.S. needs to find “new channels with Moscow to clearly communicate our intentions.”

civilian populations — not only violates our values, it’s deeply damaging to our security,” Biden said. He echoed Obama’s argument that demonizing the world’s Muslims would actually help the Islamic State group by playing “into the narrative of extremists.”

Biden, who considered running for president before bowing out last year, said the country was at an “inflection point” in which hard-fought gains of the past several years risk being squandered. He dismissed those who “seek sound bite solutions in a world defined by complexity,” in another clear swipe at Trump.

“If we build walls and disrespect our closest neighbors, we will quickly see all this progress disappear, replaced by a return of anti-Americanism and a corrosive rift throughout our hemisphere,” Biden said.

The vice president also sought to undercut Trump’s argument that if elected, the U.S. would enjoy a more constructive and friendly relationship with Russia, following a dysfunctional

A ‘berry’ bad lady?

Dear Readers: Today’s SOUND OFF is about grocery-store shoppers. A reader wrote: “Not too long ago, I was in a grocery store, and I saw a lady opening packages of strawberries and pulling from them the better-looking berries to replace the ones she had in her container.

“I suggested to her that she should stop. She didn’t throw anything, use foul language or give me mean looks; she just kept on doing what she was doing. By the time I found the store manager, the lady was gone.” – Tim D., via email Tim, I’ve seen this too, and have written about it.

It’s not really illegal, but maybe not good manners.

You might ask the store manager about their policy.

Murray takes title at O-M Tournament

CNA sports reporter kacarter@crestonnews.com

ORIENT — Even the championship game was an emphatic win for the Murray Lady Mustangs softball team.

Murray won the Orient Tournament for the third consecutive year when they defeated Melcher-Dallas 19-3 late Saturday evening.

Lady Mustangs supporters still littered the stands when Murray clinched the championship around 10 in the evening after spending much of the day at the park. Melcher-Dallas Saints fans and workers from Orient-Macksburg remained to watch the Murray batters smash the ball throughout the lineup.

The win was Murray’s third of the tournament.

ed game of the tournament, the Lady Mustangs pulled out a relatively easy victory.

Murray defeated Lenox for the second time this season, this time an 8-3 victory to advance to the tourney championship.

Breianna Klein pitched the whole game and allowed five hits and three runs. All then runs came in the top of the seventh. She struck out four Tigers.

Klein went 2-for-3 as pinch-runner Bailey Frederick scored two of the times Klein reached base. Klein got the scoring going for the Lady Mustangs in the first with an RBI double that she pummeled to score Hailey Chew, who led off the game with a double. A Madison Gonseth single pushed across Frederick to make it 2-0 in the first.

Murray scored two more in the third when Brandi Gilbert hit an opposite field home run to right. Gilbert posted four RBIs total as she went 2-for-4. The Lady Mustangs scored four more in the fourth frame, which included an Alyssa Martin RBI double.

Lenox’s Beth Christensen went 2-for-3 at the plate and was robbed of a third hit when Klein made a diving catch on a bunt attempt in the fifth and then threw on to first to double off Hannah CNA photo by KALEB CARTER Davis.

Late surge leads Roadrunner baseball past Wolverines

By RYAN KRONBERG verines’ first run. Later in the CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

GREENFIELD— Nodaway Valley had plenty of good things going through five innings of Friday’s Pride of Iowa Conference baseball game.

But trouble struck late and the Wolverines did not recover.

Interstate 35 struck for 11 runs over the final two innings as the Roadrunners escaped with a 16-6 win.

Nodaway Valley was humming right along in the early part of the game. Interstate 35 opened the scoring with a run in the top of the third, but the Wolverines countered for four in the bottom of the inning. Joe Herr’s single drove in Beau Weinhiemer with the Wol-

inning, Ryan Jensen drove in a pair with a run-scoring single.

“We put the ball in play well,” said Nodaway Valley coach Dan Jameson. “We made some good things happen. The boys fought well.”

Interstate 35 struck for four in the fifth and a 5-4 lead, but Nodaway Valley responded with a two-spot in the bottom of the inning.

Jensen had a run-scoring base hit, then later scored when Tyler Vande Water reached on an error.

But the Wolverines pitching, which was good through the first four-plus innings, struggled mightily over the final two innings. Wolverine pitching allowed 11 runs on eight hits and five walks over the final two innings.

“All of the sudden, things

went south on us,” Jameson said.

Sophomore Corbin Bond pitched a solid four-plus innings before giving way to Jackson Lamb in the fifth.

Lamb pitched two innings

and took the loss.

Still, having the game well in check into the later innings, only to see it slip away left a bitter taste in the Wolverines’ mouths.

“This is a tough one to

swallow,” Jameson said.

Nodaway Valley fell to 8-7 overall. The Wolverines are back on the diamond tonight hosting Adair-Casey in a non-conference matchup.

Facing a demon head on - and winning the war Life throws us curveballs.

Sometimes we hit them out of the park for a walk-off grand slam, and others we swing and miss.

It’s dealing with the disappointment of swinging and missing, sometimes to end the inning or the game that helps shape and define us.

In the process of adjusting to the disappointments, we can pick up some bad habits. Our swings find a bit of a hitch. Unfortunately, we carry that over into the next at bat or next game. A coach, teammate notices. We try to make the adjustment, but the bad habit takes some time to break.

As it is in baseball or softball so it can be in real life.

I know the first time I touched nicotine was in college. It was a quiet Saturday when some of my buddies got bored. We went off campus. I got handed a stogie, started inhaling.

We got back to campus and I was more loopy than several of the times I was hammered. The smoke had completely messed with me.

Unfortunately, it was something I eventually tried again. I found it addicting. By the summer after my ju-

nior year, for whatever reason, I was hooked.

Fast forward to the spring of 2008.

By late May, I’d decided I was going to quit. I bought the nicotine gum, started weaning myself off of it.

I survived the first wave of urges over Memorial Day weekend. I survived the second when I helped both personally and professionally as Charles City dealt with the devastating flooding along the Cedar River — the same flooding that eventually overwhelmed Cedar Rapids.

I kept the cravings at bay the week after the flood when I was in suburban Atlanta for one of my best friends’ wedding from back in Nebraska — even as the minimart out-

side my hotel was tempting me over two days, and the fact I’d forgot my nicotine gum in Floyd County.

I managed to keep away from smoking for three years. By then, I was in the midst of being bitten by a massive exercise kick. I not only quit smoking, but managed to lose in the neighborhood of 150-plus pounds over a two and a half year stretch, going from an ugly 335 to a much healthier 175.

Then came a weekend I wish I could have back. I was doing legwork for a story involving wounded veterans coming up to Floyd/Butler Counties for a weekend of hunting in their honor. I wanted to take time to KRONS| 7A

CNA sports editor rkronberg@ crestonnews.com

GREENFIELD — A close 6-2 loss at the Winterset Tournament earlier this season to Class 2A seventh-ranked Interstate 35 gave Nodaway Valley coach Ray Stewart hope heading into Friday’s Pride of Iowa Conference softball matchup in Greenfield.

The powerful Roadrunners squashed the Wolverines’ hopes for an upset.

Interstate 35 scored 14 times over the final two innings to earn a 15-0, four-inning win. “I thought we could have a chance against them, but not the way we played (Friday),� said Nodaway Valley coach Ray Stewart.

Interstate 35 struck for a run in the second.

It was all Roadrunners from there. Interstate 35 pounded out seven runs in

run home run by Cheyanne Hiatt, and seven more in the fourth.

Nodaway Valley had no offensive answer against Interstate 35 pitcher Carlyn Stanley. Stanley allowed only two hits — singles by Katie Jensen and Paige McElfish in the fourth— and three total baserunners, all coming in the fourth inning. Stanley struck out 10 and walked one. “She’s a very good pitcher,� Stewart said. The Wolverines’ overall effort was a little frustrating to Stewart. “We thought we could play with them and we didn’t,�

Stewart said. “It was just one of those nights.�

Nodaway Valley still won two of its three games. The Wolverines grabbed a win 9-1 win over Mormon Trail on Wednesday to start its tourney.

The Wolverines gave up 12 runs in a forgettable fifth inning against Melcher-Dallas. Up until that point, the Wolverines were cruising and had a 12-3 lead going into the inning.

On Saturday, the Wolverines fell at the hands of Melcher-Dallas and salvaged a third-place finish with a win over Lenox 8-7.

The Wolverines escaped a bases loaded, no outs situation in the seventh and did just enough in the eighth to win.

With international rules invoked, the Wolverines placed Natalie Daugherty on second base. After a groundout by Kate Jensen moved Daugherty to third, a passed ball allowed her to score.

Remains of Marine killed in WW II to be buried in Fort Dodge FORT DODGE (AP) — The remains of a Marine killed in a World War II battle on an isolated island in the Pacific Ocean will be returned to Webster County for burial this week alongside his parents and other relatives in Fort Dodge.

The remains of Pvt. Palmer S. Haraldson will be buried on Wednesday — more than 70 years after he was killed during an assault on the island of Betio, where Japanese forces had an airfield, according to the Fort Dodge Messenger.

“I guess I feel really good about this finally coming to a conclusion and Palmer coming home,” said one of Harald-

son’s nieces, Carolyn Moore Redding, of San Clemente, California.

Haraldson was born in Lincoln, Nebraska, on Aug. 12, 1912, and grew up in Webster County, Iowa. In 1937, he moved to Glendale, California, where he and his wife, Patricia, were married. They didn’t have children.

He enlisted in the Marines in April 1943 and after basic training was sent to New Zealand. His company soon was among those assigned to invade the Tarawa Atoll, where the Japanese had built an airfield on Betio. Haraldson died Nov. 22, 1943, and was among about 1,100 Marines buried in temporary graves.
