Justen “The Cannon” Shannon poses for a photo in front of the South Korean and American flags Monday at Henry’s Martial Arts in Creston. Shannon will be fighting a bout for the 185-pound belt for the Victory Fighter amateur championship Saturday in Omaha, Nebraska.

By BAILEY POOLMAN active and that’s how it led ute rounds,” Shannon said. Shannon added. “I feel very CNA staff reporter bpoolman@crestonnews.com

Justen Shannon has always been an athlete, ever since he was 4 years old and his father was his T-ball coach in California. As he grew up, his love for being active evolved from basketball to cage fighting.

“The Cannon,” as he is commonly known, moved to Greenfield with his parents, Kim and Marty Daino, and started his senior year at Nodaway Valley High School. He played basketball, football and baseball before graduating high school in 2007.

Shannon and his high school teammates got third place at state basketball the year he graduated.

“We went to state and all that good stuff. That was a fun experience for sure,” Shannon said. “Then, it kind of transitioned from not playing basketball anymore after I played for a year in college. I just wanted to stay

to MMA.” About seven years ago, Shannon fought his first bout in the cage, winning seven fights. Now, Shannon, 27, has been preparing for his next cage fight, which takes place Saturday at Baxter Arena in Omaha, Nebraska. This mixed martial arts (MMA) fight is one step closer to Shannon’s hope of going professional.

Victory Fighter Shannon has been training between six and eight weeks for the Victory Fighter Championship fight Saturday in Omaha. His days have consisted of weightlifting and cardio in the morning, an average of 10 hours on the construction site with his father, who owns Daino Construction, then two hours of training at Henry’s Martial Arts in Creston.

“The only difference this training was the added morning cardio, mainly because the title fight this Saturday is five, three-min-

“That’s compared to a normal bout that is only three rounds.”

Shannon thinks the added cardio training will give him an edge.

“I think, if anything, you can always do more, but to me, cardio is one of the biggest things in the sport. Usually, everybody gets tired at one point, and it’s just who gets tired first usually ends up losing the fight,” Shannon said. “I feel like everything I do on my own and everything we do here as a team helps me not be the first one tired.”

The event starts 6 p.m.

Saturday, and Shannon said he’s getting more excited for his bout.

“If anything, I’m more excited now that it’s closer to weigh-ins being done,” Shannon said. “I can weigh in at 2 p.m. today, so after that, all the hard stuff is over and the fight will be the fun part.”

“I’m not nervous at all, just ready for it to be here,”

prepared with everything we have been working on at Henry’s for this fight.”

Shannon has Josh Henry of Henry’s Martial Arts with him in the corner, and his parents will also be in attendance for the title fight.

Beginnings “The Cannon” Shannon became serious about fighting after taking several years off while in college.

He earned an associate’s degree and is currently in the process of earning his bachelor’s degree in sports and event management from AIB. “I took my first fight about six or seven years ago, and then (fought) kind of off and on because I went to AIB and played college basketball for a year,” Shannon said. “So, I stopped fighting for about two years. I’d say I’ve been really serious the past three or four years.”

He fought on Wednesdays at Uncle Buck’s in Des CANNON | 2A

Wednesday wasn’t easy for Creston Community School District Superintendent Steve McDermott and Creston High School Principal Bill Messerole.

They, along with about 20 other Creston Community School District employees, attended the funeral for Renea Baker, 49, and her daughter, Breanna, 12, both of Redding, who were among the five people killed in the July 8 crash west of Mount Ayr on Highway 2.

Renea was a paraeducator for Creston Community School District for three years, most recently in a high R. Baker school special education room. Breanna had just finished fifth grade in Creston.

Sydney King, 30, and Hayden King, 2, both of Redding, and Elizabeth Lakey, 4, of Grant City, Missouri, were also killed in the crash.

Willie Baker, 9, of Redding was flown to Blank Children’s Hospital in Des Moines, where he was in critical condition. A 1-year-old passenger was released from the Ringgold County Hospital on July 8.

According to the Iowa State Patrol, the crash occurred when the SUV Renea was driving did not stop at a stop sign at Iowa Highway 2 while going north on Ringgold County Road P27. The

“THEY were both professional smilers.

They each one had great smiles.”

SUV was then broadsided by a rock utility truck.

“It’s a tragedy, but it’s one of those situations that really tests a person’s faith, tests a family’s faith,” McDermott said. “It was very apparent that family has strong faith.”

McDermott said he’ll remember both Renea and Breanna for their infectious smiles and the way they looked to include everyone.

“They were both professional smilers,” he said.

“They each one had great smiles. They wanted people included. They didn’t want others excluded. (They were) just easy going and very friendly.”

Messerole said Renea was never one to complain, instead always having something positive to say.

“Whenever she came into the office, it was always to say something positive,” Messerole said. “The student or students had a great day, the field trip went great or I really enjoyed doing this today or doing that. She wasn’t one to ever come in and say this is wrong. She was an incredibly positive person.”

Renea had a way of connecting with her students, and worked hard to be the most effective in the classroom.

often took classes on her own to improve herself as a teacher. She participated in autism training and also took the necessary classes to be able to substitute teach in her particular classroom to provide the students with continuity.

“She was just a very kind-hearted person,” Messerole said. “She just truly enjoyed being around the school atmosphere, the students and staff.”

“Our students that she worked with, they really counted on her,” McDermott said. “Obviously, they’re going to miss her when school starts this fall.”

Faith was important to the Baker family, which was evidenced in a piece read

by Mike Moser, lead pastor at Connection Christian Church in Columbus, Nebraska, who helped officiate Wednesday’s funeral.

The piece was written by Breanna as part of a thirdgrade project talking about future dreams.

“My dream is that our world will be bully- and drugfree. ... But most of all tell

those who don’t know about the Holy Spirit about him so their lives become better,” Breanna wrote for the project. “And help the poor find stuff they need to live so they can tell other people and so they can spread the word of the Holy Spirit. Another dream is when I grow up is I’m going to try to get a job that will help the poor people that don’t believe in the Holy Spirit so they can believe and pray.”

Those were traits McDermott could see in Breanna.

“Bre was maybe mature beyond her years, as far as looking out for other people and worrying about other people ahead of herself,” McDermott said. “Sometimes a student that age doesn’t understand that, but she really did. And, it was pretty obvious where she got that trait from, because her mom was the same way.”

A memorial fund has been set up to help the Baker, King and Lakey families.

Donors can go to any Great Western Bank location and give to the Redding United Methodist Church Baker-King-Lakey Memorial Fund, which church members set up to help cover funeral and medical expenses.

3 governors call on Congress to ratify major trade agreement DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A bipartisan group of governors is calling on Congress to ratify the Trans-Pacific Partnership despite opposition from both leading presidential candidates.

The governors of Iowa, Virginia and Louisiana said Friday the agreement would help businesses export more products and create jobs.

They joined with U.S. Trade Representative Michael Froman, who’s leading the Obama administration’s efforts to sell the plan to skeptical lawmakers.

The executives spoke at the EFCO Corp. in Des Moines, a maker of concrete support systems used to build buildings, bridges and other infrastructure around the world.

Donald Trump has been an outspoken critic of the trade deal with 12 countries, saying it would hurt American workers. Hillary Clinton has also opposed the agreement.

The governors are in Iowa for the summer meeting of the National Governors Association.

Justen “The Cannon” Shannon, left, throws an uppercut to Junior Hicks during a training session Monday at Henry’s Martial Arts in Creston. Shannon has trained for more than six weeks for his Victory Fighter amateur championship fight Saturday in Omaha, Nebraska.

CANNON: CONT. FROM | 1A

Moines, and eventually grew to taking Des Moines’ Midwest Cage Championship 185-pound amateur belt at Hy-Vee Hall.

October 2015 he won the 185-pound belt after a King of the Cage bout.

“Mixed martial arts is basically, you get to use everything except gouging eyes and pulling hair,” Shannon said. “Knees, elbows, kicks, punches, all that good stuff is OK.” Shannon realized he enjoyed having something to do with his spare time after college basketball was over for him. And, his winning powered him on.

“My most exciting fight was for the 185 MCC belt because I won that fight, and that’s one of the bigger

promotions in Iowa and the Midwest,” Shannon said.

“A lot of their pro fighters have gone on to the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship), which is about as high as you can go in the sport.”

Cutting weight was the hardest part for Shannon, since he never wrestled in high school. After cutting weight and weighing in for his weight class, Shannon said it’s a race to rehydrate before the bout.

“I’ve done so much here,” Shannon said. “I’ve had 21 fights now, and these last ones I’ve finally been calm about.”

Future After a major arm injury in 2011, Shannon has learned to “fight smart, not tough.”

“My worst fight that I’ve lost was at an MCC fight, where I got put into a sub-

mission, an arm bar,” Shannon said, twisting his arm at an uncomfortable angle to show the move. “I was younger in my career and I was just trying to be tough, and I’d say dumb now because I didn’t tap out (leave the fight) and got my arm popped and almost snapped in half.”

“It taught me not to get put in that position for sure, but it taught me as an amateur to protect yourself for sure. The fight’s important, obviously, but at the end of the day, as an amateur, you’re still fighting for free, so prolonging your career is probably a smart thing,” Shannon said.

All the ligaments in his elbow cup were ripped and the forearm muscle was nearly detached from the elbow. Since then, the arm has healed and Shannon has taken extra care during his fights in order to prolong his

career.

“If I win this fight, I should be able to get a pro fight and start taking those steps,” Shannon said. “I’m going to keep fighting as long as there aren’t serious injuries. But, right now, I would just like to see where it takes me.”

“It is kind of weird, because you’re going in and they’re trying to hurt you,” he said. “As long as I’m calm by the time I get into the cage, everything else falls into place.”

Shannon wants to continue his fighting career professionally, and hopefully travel the country fighting.

“One of the main things a lot of people get to do is go to a lot of different cities and states to fight, and that’s one thing I’d like to do with this,” Shannon said.

“Winning fights is the most important, and if I win, who knows what will happen.”

France reels as Bastille Day truck attack kills 84 in Nice NICE, France (AP) — A Tunisian living in France drove a large truck through crowds celebrating Bastille Day along Nice’s beachfront, killing at least 84 people, many of them children, according to police and hospital officials. The slaughter ended only after police killed the armed attacker in a hail of bullets.

French leaders on Friday extended the country’s 9-month-old state of emergency and vowed to deploy thousands of police reservists on the streets after Thursday night’s massacre of pedestrians leaving a fireworks display for France’s

Video shot by bystanders shows the truck coming under police gunfire as it drives through an intersection into the pedestrian promenade.

Crowds flee in panic, taking shelter in shops, hotels or leaping off the elevated pavement onto the beach below. Police finally surround the stationary truck and fatally shoot its driver.

Police identified the attacker as Mohamed Bouhlel, a 31-year-old Nice resident, and said he had drawn a gun on them.

The truck’s front windshield was riddled with bullets.

Video footage showed the truck driving slowly down the southern French city’s famous, palm tree-lined Promenade des Anglais boulevard, which had been sealed off and turned into a pedestrian-only party zone.

German tourist Richard Gutjahr filmed the moment when an unidentified motorcyclist rode alongside the truck and grabbed hold of the driver’s door as two other police officers on foot

nearby fired a single shot each at the driver’s windscreen. But the truck accelerated through an intersection into screaming crowds, where Gutjahr could hear the final confrontation involving 15 to 20 seconds of gunfire.

Picture these massive mushrooms! \Dear Heloise: My husband and I ordered fried mushrooms at a new restaurant. There were only four mushrooms on a plate, but they were the LARGEST MUSHROOM TOPS I’d ever seen! I used my cellphone to take a picture, and placed a spoon by the mushrooms so others would get a better idea of the size when I posted it online. – Wanda G., Arlington, Va. It’s a good hint to use when photographing something that needs to be in perspective. Thanks for the reminder. – Heloise ANOTHER PACKING HINT Dear Heloise: I have a travel tip that has saved me money and worry: I label a resealable bag of each item I want to pack and not leave behind in a hotel room (e.g., cellphone charger, tablets, etc.).

I keep the bags in my suitcase. When traveling, I put them together in one place where I will see them when I pack to leave. I haven’t left anything behind since starting this method. – Diane R., Oak Point, Texas EXPIRATION DATES AND BAKING SODA

Hints from Heloise Dear Heloise: My mom gave me boxes of expired baking soda. Before I throw them out, is there any way to tell whether they’re still good? – Candace, via email Yes, there is. Note: Baking soda does have an expiration date on it, since it can be used for baking and as a food product. However, if the soda has been stored unopened in a dry, cool place, it’s probably still good.

Here is how to check whether it’s still active: Pour a small amount of vinegar into a bowl, then add about a spoonful of baking soda. If the mixture fizzes, then the soda is active and can be used in recipes. I have a pamphlet you can order that’s chockfull of money-saving baking-soda hints and recipes.

To order a copy of Heloise’s Baking Soda Hints and Recipes, visit www.Heloise.com, or send $5 and a stamped (68 cents), self-addressed, business-size envelope to:

Even if the soda is “flat,” you can use it to clean and freshen around the house. – Heloise MAYONNAISE FOR SPOTS Dear Heloise: My favorite hint from you suggested putting mayonnaise on white spots on furniture. My dining-room table had one, so I dabbed some on it. I left it overnight and wiped it off the next morning. The spot was gone!

Nothing expensive here, and who doesn’t have even a little bit of mayo in the fridge? Thanks for the hint.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)This is an accident-prone day for your sign. No question.

Slow down and pay attention to everything you say and do.

Be careful! Think before you speak or do anything.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Today you feel restless. It’s almost as if you need more air!

Give yourself a chance to do something different and gently explore something new.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Your relations with a friend or a member of a group might upset you today. People are changing horses midstream; plans are going up in smoke.

Today is full of all kinds of disruptions and sudden arguments. Patience!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb.

18) Allow extra time today, because your work routine will be interrupted for sure.

Computer crashes, power outages, staff shortages and canceled meetings are just some examples.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20)Parents should be vigilant today, because this is an accident-prone day for their kids.

Meanwhile, it’s also a rocky day for romance. Just smile and be sweet and understanding.

YOU BORN TODAY People know they can count on you,

because you are faithful and reliable. You are also passionate and dramatic! Finally! The year you have been waiting for, because you are ready for change. Take advantage of opportunities that present themselves. Expect a major change, perhaps as significant as what occurred around 2006.

It’s time to test your future!

To earn this title, contestants must finish in the top 20 - based on their combined times/scores in the first two rounds - to advance to Saturday evening’s final round. World champions will

then be determined based on their three-round combined times and scores.

Again, this year, the Saturday championship performance will be televised nationally as a part of the Cinch Highschool Rodeo Tour telecast series on RFD-TV.

Pictured are students from Mrs. Ronda Weese’s Head Start preschool classroom who visited the Creston city landfill.

Mrs. Ronda Weese’s Head Start preschool classroom has been learning about “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.”

Questions studied were “Where does trash go?,” “What do workers do there?,” “How can we reuse junk?” and “How can we create less trash?”

The class went to Creston city landfill May 19 to find out the answers to a couple of these questions. During the guided tour by Tre-

sa, they were able to discover the workers pick up trash with a garbage truck, dump the garbage and then garbage is taken to Des Moines by semi-trucks and trailer. The landfill takes up to four semi-trucks and trailer loads of garbage to Des Moines daily.

The classroom learned that recycling can reduce the amount of garbage.

While at the landfill, the students noticed many items were recyclable that

came out of the garbage truck. To heat the landfill warehouse, recycled oil from trucks and lawn mowers is used. Useable paint that is brought to the landfill is offered to the public at no cost. The students learned many fascinating things about reduce, reuse and recycle.

Weese’s class wants to thank the landfill employees, Tresa and Southwestern Iowa Trolley for making this trip a success.

Creston opens Class 3A District 15 play traveling to Winter set to face the Huskies. First pitch is set for 7 p.m. in Winter set.

The winner takes on the winner of Glenwood and Atlantic Monday in the district final, also at Winterset.

Coach Steve Birchard’s squad worked on situational drills and other seemingly minute details that could prove to be vitally important

come game time.

Crest o n ’ s growth in those little details in recent weeks has Birchard helped solidify a defense that was shaky in the early part of the season.

“Those guys have worked hard at improving,” Birchard said. “These guys have worked real hard. They keep

improving.”

The Panthers brought plenty of energy to Thursday morning’s workout at Panther Field.

“A lot of times this time of the year, it’s a grind,” Birchard said. “You go over the same thing again and again. We’ve improved and worked on the little things we haven’t done well all year and we’ve showed it in games lately.”

Creston enters the postseason 15-15.

While the regular season’s

goal of a Hawkeye 10 Conference title came up short, the Panthers now can reset their expectations.

“You have your goals early in the season of winning conference, things like that. You move on after that doesn’t happen,” Birchard said. “You move on to your secondary goals. Making the state tournament is one of them. If you get there, you’ve got a one-in-eight chance It means you’re a pretty good ball club and you’re playing CRESTON | 10A

Wolverines survive and advance Nodaway Valley comes back to defeat OrientMacksburg

LENOX — Nodaway Valley senior Jackson Lamb knew a good pitch was coming with two outs in the bottom of the seventh inning of Thursday’s Class 1A District 14 semifinal against Orient-Macksburg.

Lamb took advantage of a good pitch, lacing a base hit that drove in Joe Herr with the game-winning run as the Wolverines capped a dramatic comeback with a 6-5 win.

Nodaway Valley, 17-10, advances to Lenox, 15-11, Saturday in the district final.

Saturday’s first pitch is set for 7 p.m. in Lenox.

Orient-Macksburg’s season ends at 9-16.

2-0 offering from Jesse Johnson and drove a pitch into left field. Herr raced around third with the winning run.

Herr reached on a two-out single. He moved to second when a pickoff throw from Johnson sailed into right

field.

“I wanted to do it for my team,” Lamb said. “I wanted to make solid contact, help Joe. I stuck to my fundamentals and drove it.”

Nodaway Valley coach Dan Jameson credited the

lineup all game long for doing its part to make sure the top of the Wolverines order could be up in the bottom of the seventh.

“Baseball’s the only sport where you can’t give the bat to a certain person,” James-

on said. “Everybody’s got to do their job. Guys did a good job trying to get on base, bumping everyone around in the order.”

Nodaway Valley moves back into the district title.

It swept both meetings from Lenox during Pride of Iowa Conference play. The Wolverines on 9-3 on June 14 in Lenox and 14-6 in Greenfield on July 5.

“We’ll have to be ready to play,” Jameson said.

Orient-Macksburg players walked off the field disappointed knowing it played well, but fell just short.

“It was a heck of a game,” said Orient-Macksburg coach Drew Dornack. “Nobody even thought Nodaway Valley was going to have to play seven innings. Nobody thought Nodaway Valley was going to have to bring in Jackson Lamb to pitch.”

The Bulldogs played with an enormous chip on their shoulder with the season on the line.

“We believe we’re still the best 9-15, 9-16 team around,” Dornack said. “Our record didn’t say how good these guys are. Maybe its cliche, but they battled. It’s awesome they battled.”

Tigers sprint past Bulldogs, on to district final

By KALEB CARTER

CNA sports reporter kacarter@crestonnews.com

LENOX — Taking one game out of three probably wasn’t the Lenox Tigers’ plan for Bedford this season.

However, logic suggests that the Tigers are more than happy with their 12-2 home win over the Bulldogs that propels them to a district finals appearance.

Lenox, 15-11, moves on to the Class 1A District 14 final against Nodaway Valley, 1710, on Saturday at Lenox at 7 p.m.

The Tigers played their usual brand of baseball. That involved getting on base someway, somehow and put-

ting pressure on the defense by sprinting around.

The Lenox base running pressured Bedford into eight errors.

Lenox stole six bases and caused terror on the base paths for Bulldog infielders and outfielders alike.

advantage in building a 5-1 fifth inning lead.

“We weren’t, I feel, and our kids felt we weren’t respected,” Dornack said.

“We’re a quality team. They fought hard and showed what they could.”

The Bulldogs tallied a run in the first. Joey Huntington walked and scored on a Jackson Mikkelson groundout.

Nodaway Valley countered with a run in the bottom. Herr reached on an error and scored on Sam Marnin’s triple.

Orient-Macksburg showcased its power in the middle innings with a pair of tworun home runs.

Dylan Nichols walked with one out in the third. Keaton Eslinger took a 1-0 offering from Wolverines starter

Brandon Mangles over the left field fence for a two-run home run.

The Bulldogs added to the lead in the fifth. Hungtington walked to start the fifth. On an 0-1 pitch, Nichols ripped a Lamb offering just over the fence in left field.

“Dylan’s been stroking the ball,” Dornack said. “He caught a hold of one and sent it out.”

Nodaway Valley had one big offensive surge left, a surge the Wolverines needed to keep their season alive.

Herr was hit by a pitch with one out. Lamb singled to put runners at second and third.

Marnin was hit by a Mikkelson pitch to load the bases.

Ryan Jensen stepped into the box. He took the first pitch for a ball.

Jensen was sitting on the 1-0 offering.

“I decided that was going to be about the best

pitch,” Jensen said. “He had been pitching me inside the first two at bats. I figured I whould try to take it and I hit it.”

The blast cleared the fence just to the right of straightaway center field. After he saw it had left the yard, Jensen raised his arms in celebration. He was greeted by his teammates at the plate.

The Wolverines knew they were back in it.

“I didn’t know where it was going. I was hoping it wasn’t going to a fielders and then it went over the fence,” Jensen said. “I couldn’t ask for anything better than that.”

Lamb made quick work of the Bulldogs in the top of the seventh, setting up his own heroics in the bottom of the inning.

It wasn’t a pretty win, but the Wolverines are still alive, now two games away from a trip at the state tournament.

“We never do anything

easy it seems like,m” Jensen said. “It seems like at times in several games, we don’t do anything easy.”

On the other end was a dejected group of Bulldogs.

Lenox sophomore Colton Hogan looks to watch the action after scoring the game’s first run in the Tigers’ win over Bedford on Thursday. Bedford junior catcher Quentin Sefrit looks on from behind.

LENOX: CONT. FROM | 7A

scoring going in the first when an Aaron Schmitz grounder bounced over the head of Bedford first baseman Damien Henry. The single scored Colton Hogan, who had just doubled, to give Lenox an early 1-0 lead.

In the top of the third, the Bulldogs got a run back on a Brennan Sefrit single that scored Hunter Russell.

Lenox responded by making things uncomfortable for Bedford in the field. An infield hit by Brenden Christensen and walks to Hensley and Hogan loaded the bases.

A Schmitz grounder to short scored Christensen to put Lenox up. Then with runners on first and third, Bed-

ford’s Sefrit caught Schmitz in a rundown between first and second, but Hensley took home on the rundown.

Schmitz tried to take third in the midst of the chaos but was tagged out.

“We try and get on base somehow, ‘find a way’ we say. And then once we get on there, aggressive on the bases,” Lenox coach Jesse Cox said.

Things got a bit more wacky across the board in the fourth.

Hensley continued grooving on the mound with a three-up-three down inning.

The Tigers came back to the plate and rallied in bizarre fashion. The Tigers managed just two hits, but forced numerous errors in tallying five runs against a frazzled group of Bulldogs.

Lenox sophomore Aaron Schmitz slides into third base but is tagged out by Bedford sophomore Ross Spencer in the third inning of Lenox’s victory Thursday. Schmitz tried to advance to third after getting caught in a rundown between first and second, which had allowed Jared Hensley to score.

A hard-hit ball by Hensley and a single by Hogan had the Tigers up 7-1. The Tigers tacked on another before the inning was over.

Lenox played add-on in the fifth and sixth with two runs in each. The Tigers ended it on a Schmitz walk-off triple. Schmitz ripped a long ball to left which fell beyond the reach of the left fielder.

Dawson Tullberg came in to score, and Schmitz touched home when the throw from left field got away from both the third baseman and the catcher.

It was a fitting end to a

sloppy game for the Bulldogs, who came apart in the fourth.

It had been a different story for Bedford, who had won in come-from-behind fashion in both of its wins against Lenox this season.

“We had a big lead on them the first time and a pretty good sized lead on them the second time,” Cox said. “We knew we could come in here and send a message.”

The district finals await against a Nodaway Valley team that Lenox has already fallen to 9-3 and 14-6 this

season. Coach Cox feels his team has a decent shot regardless.

“I know we squeaked out the no. 1 seed, but playing here has been a home field advantage for many many years. We feel very blessed to have that.”

Hensley got the win on the mound. He pitched six innings, walked one and struck out seven. The Tigers will have the ability to throw Kaleb Anderson, Tullberg, Schmitz, or any combination of those three at Nodaway Valley on Saturday.

The Tigers will have to

terrorize the base paths to gain some headway against Nodaway Valley. Lenox now has 165 stolen bases.

Birchard will send staff ace Kadon Hulett to the mound against the Huskies. Jaden Driskell will be Hulett’s battery mate.

Driskell will have to be at the top of his game to slow down a Winterset attack that likes to run when possible.

The Huskies have stolen 100 bases as a team, led by Colby Van Pelt’s 28. “They like to run,�

Birchard said. “We’ll have to be on the top of game in that respect and being able to hold the runners, control them a little bit.�

Birchard has confidence Driskell is up to the test he’ll face by the Huskies. “We’ll be OK with that,�

Birchard said. “Jaden Driskell’s a solid catcher. He can do a nice job. He’ll throw you out if you don’t get a good jump.�

Creston has familiarity with its district. The Panthers lost at Winterset last Friday. Creston split with both Atlantic and Glenwood in Hawkeye 10 play. “There’s no mysteries here,� Birchard said. “We can play with them or anybody in the state. “We’re ready to go.�

In District 16, Denison-Schleswig takes on Storm Lake in the early game at Harlan. In the nightcap, Carroll travels to Harlan to face the second-ranked Cyclones.

Those winners meet Monday in the district final.

The substate game is set for Wednesday in Harlan.

OUTDOOR REPORT (IOWA DNR)—Swimming, canoeing and floating the river on tubes is a summertime tradition in Iowa.

But as relaxing and enjoyable as a river float is, it does come with an element of risk.

Iowa rivers are dynamic systems in a constant state of change and can hide obstacles just beneath the water surface. Todd Robertson, with the Iowa Department of Natural Resources Water Trails Program, said river users can enjoy the scenery while keeping an eye downstream to avoid any hazardous surprises. “We’ve had some reports of trees being blown over during the recent storms and blocking parts of different rivers. We would encourage paddlers and tubers to watch for fallen trees and other hazards that can pull you in and suck you under the water,� he said. “This is the busy season for floating our rivers. When we have consistent hot weather, there is an increase in the number of paddlers and tubers and we want everyone to be mindful that our rivers are in a constant state of change.�

Robertson said there are a few tips to keep you safe on the river.  • Wear your life jacket: Life jackets, when properly fastened and cinched, have saved lives. Life jackets are mandatory for any child under 13 in any vessel underway in the state of Iowa. • Know the weather forecast: Always get off the water if lightening is in the area. • Recognize and avoid hazards: Most water inci-

dents involve an obstruction – downed trees and branches create a “strainer� effect that can trap boats and people under water, sometimes leading to drowning. A bridge pier or boulder can get a boat pinned on its upstream side.

Low-head dams can re-circulate, trap and drown victims.

These hazards are most difficult to avoid at mid to high range flows. • Consider your experience: Novice paddlers and tubers generally have less control as rivers get swifter, and should factor in more caution. • Beat the heat: Dehydration, heat exhaustion stroke, and heat exhaustion can become serious problems in by mid-summer. Bring plenty of water on river trips, cool off periodically by getting yourself wet or swimming, use sunscreen, and for tubing or paddling trips make sure to choose shorter trips when the river’s flow is low. • Set the example for your kids: Be vigilant with kids in rivers, make sure they wear their life jackets before getting in the water, and explain to them the other safety points on this list. • Watch your kids: Even with a life jacket, be aware of common river hazards, and keep a watchful eye on kids in a river at all times, to help them avoid hazards such as woody debris and other objects, or low-head dams. • Other factors: You can improve your odds by not consuming alcohol, considering weather factors, and being vigilant about what’s around the next bend.

never have been on the road,” said Gutjahr, who took cover as police started shooting because he feared the truck might contain a bomb.

“France was struck on the day of its national holiday, July 14, the symbol of liberty,” French President Francois Hollande said as he denounced “this monstrosity.”

Hollande said it was not clear whether the driver had accomplices. The Paris prosecutor’s office opened an investigation for “murder and attempted murder in an organized group linked to a terrorist enterprise.”

No group has claimed responsibility for the carnage, but French officials called it an undeniable act of terror. The assault on revelers rocked a nation still dealing with the aftermath of two attacks in Paris last year that killed 147 people and were claimed by the Islamic State extremist group.

“Terrorism is a threat that weighs heavily upon France and will continue to weigh for a long time,” Prime Minister Manuel Valls said after Hollande called an emergency government meeting Friday.

“We are facing a war that terrorism has brought to us. The

goal of terrorists is to instill fear and panic. And France is a great country, and a great democracy, that will not allow itself to be destabilized.”

Hollande and Valls rushed to Nice, 690 kilometers (490 miles) south of Paris, to offer their condolences after the emergency meeting. They visited wounded people in two hospitals, including a facility where officials said they had treated about 50 children and teenagers for a wide range of injuries.

Hollande told reporters Friday that about 50 people were still “between life and death” after the attack.

Politicians said the truck knocked over and crushed pedestrians over a distance of two kilometers (1 ¼ miles).

Broadcast footage showed a scene of horror along Nice’s famous promenade, with broken bodies splayed on the asphalt, some piled near one another, others bleeding onto the roadway or twisted into unnatural shapes.

The regional president, Christian Estrosi, told BFM TV that “the driver fired on the crowd, according to the police who killed him.” He said more than 10 children were among the dead, which also included two Americans, Moroccans and Armenians and one person each from Russia, Switzerland and Ukraine.
