Residents in Union and surrounding counties may soon have more local access to in-home care services, as Visiting Nurse Services (VNS) Home Care and ExtraCare Services recently opened an office in Creston.

These nonprofit services will be available to patients with a number of concerns, including learning to live with an illness, recuperating from an injury and receiving infusion or IV therapy.

VNS Home Care and Ex-

traCare Services in Creston, now located at 808 Laurel St. Suite B, is in the process of obtaining Community Health Accreditation Partner (CHAP) certification.

The process requires 10 patients with certain needs to be seen by staff, and as of last week, seven patients had been seen.

The local director, Tyra Stull, said the tentative plan, pending certification, is for VNS Home Care and ExtraCare Services in Creston to be open to the public by November.

Services “The umbrella organization for all of these programs is HCI Care Services and Visiting Nurse Services of Iowa,” said Linda Clauson, business development and communication director of HCI-VNS Care Services in West Des Moines.

“Under that umbrella, we have three main programs that offer in-home care services to help people who are recuperating from illness or injury, need extra help in the home or are living with a serious or terminal illness.

Those programs are VNS Home Care, ExtraCare Services and HCI Hospice Care Services.”

VNS Home Care and ExtraCare Services in Creston will offer a range of in-home health care and support services with the goal of helping people live in their homes as independently as possible.

VNS Home Care offers skilled nursing and rehabilitative services to help people recover from illness or injury or get support for chronic conditions, while ExtraCare Services provides private-duty, in-home support with visits from

nurses and aides who offer help with medications, meal preparation, homemaking services and more.

“Home-care services are about getting people back to that level of independence they strive for to maintain a healthy lifestyle,” Clauson said. “If they need physical, occupational or speech therapy services ... or if there is concern for safety issues in the home like falls, visual impairment, that sort of thing, those tend to be the common triggers for patients who might utilize (home) health care.”

Clauson said the services are used by males and females alike, and patients range in age from youth to elderly.

“People tend to think about home health care only being for our aging parents or VNS | 2A

Monica Speaks wants answers about her father’s death 30 years ago.

But like dozens of other Iowans this year, she was shut down by the Iowa Department of Public Safety.

The reason is a controversial and relatively recent interpretation of a 45-year-old Iowa law in which the department claims any document created or collected as part of an investigation can be considered confidential forever.

That includes records involving the apparent 1986 suicide in Oskaloosa of Rick Lynne Davis, Speaks’ father.

Davis was found shot to death in a car. Speaks believes it’s possible the death was re-

lated to her father’s involvement in the drug trade.

The agency gave Speaks a synopsis of its work but refused her access to the records.

“It’s impossible. It’s literally impossible to know without the records what was reviewed or investigated,” Speaks said.

“I’m not looking to arrest anybody. I just want to know what happened with my dad.”

The Department of Public Safety denied all or parts of 40 out of 59 record requests it received during the first six months of 2016, a Des Moines Register investigation found.

And of the 40 denials, 28 were based on the investigative file exemption – regardless of whether the case is closed, remains under investigation or RECORDS | 2A

Clinton puts Trump on the defensive in debate HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. (AP) — Donald Trump aggressively tried to pin the nation’s economic and national security problems on Hillary Clinton in the first presidential debate, belittling the former senator and secretary of state as a “typical politician” incapable of delivering the change many Americans crave.

But Trump found himself on the defensive for much of Monday’s 90-minute show-

down, and the next morning, he spread the blame. He accused moderator Lester Holt of a left-leaning performance and going harder on him than Clinton, even floating the theory that organizers had intentionally given him a faulty microphone to set him up.

25, 2016, at Greater Regional Hospice Home in Creston.

Celebration of life services will be 10:30 a.m.

DEBATE: CONT. FROM | 1A

Universe winner for her weight, Trump on Tuesday dug himself deeper.

“She gained a massive amount of weight. It was a real problem. We had a real problem,” Trump told “Fox and Friends” about the 1996 winner of the pageant he once owned.

Clinton was thoroughly prepared in the debate, not only with detailed answers about her own policy proposals, but also sharp criticism of Trump’s business record, his past statements about women, and his false assertions that President Barack Obama may not have been born in the United States.

She said his charges about Obama were part of his pattern of “racist behavior.”

The Democrat also blasted Trump for his refusal to release his tax returns, breaking with decades of presidential campaign tradition. She declared, “There’s something he’s hiding.”

Trump has said he can’t release his tax returns because he is being audited, though tax experts have said an audit is no barrier to making the information public. When Clinton suggested Trump’s refusal may be because he paid nothing in federal taxes, he interrupted to say, “That makes me smart.”

The televised face-off was the most anticipated moment in an election campaign that has been historic, convulsive and unpredictable. The candidates entered the debate locked in an exceedingly close race to become America’s 45th president, and while both had moments sure to enliven their core constituencies, it was unclear whether the event would dramatically change the trajectory of the race.

The debate was confrontational from the start, with Trump frequently trying to interrupt Clinton and speaking over her answers. Clinton was more measured and restrained, often smiling through his answers, well-aware of the television cameras capturing her reaction.

“Hillary told the truth and Donald told some whoppers,” Clinton’s running mate, Tim Kaine, told ABC News the morning after the debate.

the class of 1946.

On Jan. 21, 1951, Ronald married Doris Catherine Sprague in Kellerton. He enlisted with the United States Army on Feb. 1, 1951. Ronald served in Korea as a clerk of the unit in one of the forwarding hospitals with medics. He was honorably discharged Nov. 10, 1952, and returned to Creston. Ronald and Doris lived in Creston where he worked as the head mechanic at Chevrolet garage and also as an agent at VanMark Corporation in purchasing, retiring in 1991.

He was an active member of Creston Methodist Church, and also a member of Crest City Lodge and VFW color guard.

Ronald is survived by his daughters, Linda (Allan Lee) Tedrow of Boone and Katherine Ann (Kurt Bradley) Nielsen of Adel; son Ronald (Nora Elizabeth) Sprague of Creston; seven grandchildren; one great-grandson; one step-grandchild; two step great-grandchildren and sister Mildred Gertsma of Cleveland, Ohio.

Ronald was preceded in death by his parents; wife Doris in 2012; brother Carroll Sprague and sisters, Jean Gibson, Thelma Wilson and Rowena Yates.

Trump’s criticism of Clinton turned personal in the debate’s closing moments. He said, “She doesn’t have the look, she doesn’t have the stamina” to be president. He’s made similar comments in previous events, sparking outrage from Clinton backers who accused him of leveling a sexist attack on the first woman nominated for president by a major U.S. political party.

Clinton leapt at the opportunity to remind voters of Trump’s controversial comments about women, who will be crucial to the outcome of the November election.

“This is a man who has called women pigs, slobs and dogs,” she said.

The centerpiece of Trump’s case against Clinton was that the former senator and secretary of state is little more than a career politician who has squandered opportunities to address the domestic and international problems she’s now pledging to tackle as president.

“She’s got experience,” he said, “but it’s bad experience.”

Clinton, who hunkered down for days of intensive debate preparation, came armed with a wealth of detailed attack lines. She named an architect she said built a clubhouse for Trump who says he was not fully paid and quoted comments Trump had made about Iraq and about nuclear weapons.

When Trump made a crack about Clinton taking time off the campaign trail to prepare for the debate, she turned it into a validation of her readiness for the White House.

“I think Donald just criticized me for preparing for this debate,” Clinton said. “And, yes, I did. And you know what else I prepared for? I prepared to be president. And I think that’s a good thing.”

The candidates sparred over trade, taxes and how to bring good-paying jobs back to the United States.

Clinton said her Republican rival was promoting a “Trumped-up” version of trickle-down economics — a philosophy focused on tax cuts for the wealthy. She called for increasing the federal minimum wage, spending more on infrastructure projects and guaranteeing equal pay for women.

spouses, but really, it applies to anyone who might be dealing with recovery or recuperation or living with a new disease,” she said. “Our nonprofit services serve vulnerable people at vulnerable times in their lives.”

Creston location The new office space in Creston was secured in the summer, but before beginning to serve patients full time, the organization is going through the process of CHAP certification. CHAP is an organization through which participating homecare and hospice providers can demonstrate their quality of care and service.

“Not all care providers choose to become CHAP-certified; it’s a rigorous process,” Clauson said.

“But, we felt that earning CHAP certification was the right thing to do. And, it will help us further demonstrate our commitment to excel-

went cold three decades ago.

A spot check showed that local law enforcement agencies rarely use the same exemption. Des Moines police had no record of any requests it has denied citing that exemption in the first six months of 2016. The Polk County sheriff had two.

Des Moines Police Sgt. Paul Parizek said the department generally views most records as public once a case has closed.

“I know that school of thought exists,” Parizek said in reference to agencies that have decided to keep most investigative records off-limits to the public even when cases are closed. “But we tend to take an approach in favor of transparency.”

Some of the other records DPS has denied: A national group focused on privacy issues sought records showing how Iowa uses facial recognition technology.

In that case, the state wouldn’t even acknowledge whether it has written policies or manuals about the matter.

An attorney said a denied records request prevented him from checking what, if anything, the state agency reviewed before clearing a local police chief accused of unlawfully entering a residence.

A journalist was denied access to case numbers assigned to criminal cases.

Public Safety Commissioner Roxann Ryan declined multiple requests for interviews about the records issues, initially referring questions to the Iowa Attorney General’s office. DPS spokesman Alex Murphy ultimately answered the questions, saying the department’s general policy is to withhold information related to investigations unless it fits the “immediate facts and circumstances” of a case, which Iowa law generally requires to be released.

Murphy also defended the agency’s decisions to release additional information in some cases but not others.

He said those decisions are largely strategic and intended to help law enforcement investigate crimes.

“For each request, we review the specific facts and circumstances of the case to de-

lence and the best possible care for area residents and their families.”

VNS Home Care is currently serving its first few patients. As part of the process of demonstrating readiness, the organization will serve 10 patients and then request a final survey from CHAP. “We don’t get told when (CHAP staff) will come, but we are kind of expecting them in October,” Stull said.

“Once they come and do our survey and either say, Stull ‘You’re good to go’ or ‘This needs to be changed,’ then they give us the OK. We’re really hoping by at least November, we’ll be able to take more patients.”

Those in need of help right now might be able to be taken among the first 10 patients. For more information about the different

OPINION

Creston News Advertiser | Tuesday, September 27, 2016

Brangelina break-up HOLLYWOOD – God bless America, and how’s everybody?

Daily Variety reported Angelina Jolie’s divorce from Brad Pitt will center on child custody. He was previously married to Jennifer Aniston and she to Billy Bob Thornton and Johnny Lee Miller. Between them Brad and Angelina now have enough divorces to run for U.S. president as Republicans.

Washington University in St. Louis will host the second presidential debate under a town hall format. There will be no breaks in case Mrs. Clinton suffers another prolonged coughing fit.

However, like a Gallagher concert, the front three rows will be given plastic sheets for their protection.

Donald Trump tried to put the birther issue to rest last week when he declared that President Obama was born in the United States. It’s been a hot-button is-

Topical humor Argus Hamilton

sue throughout American history. Donald Trump’s least favorite fact is that the first seven U.S. presidents were born in another country.

Washington D.C. police reported that the sword held by Joan of Arc on a statue in Washington is missing and is presumed to have been stolen by thieves. The sword represents the only major battlefield victory ever led by a woman.

Columbo just got a court order to look under Hillary’s pillow.

Ted Cruz reversed himself Friday and announced he will vote for Donald Trump. He answers to a volatile constituency. A recent poll showed that one-third of Texans want to secede from the Union if Hillary gets elected,

while the other two-thirds want to secede no matter who gets elected.

GOP National Chairman Reince Priebus warned all the GOP candidates who vowed to support the nominee they must back Trump or face no future. It’s in character for some. Jeb Bush once joined a Civil War re-enactment group, but Jeb did not have to show up because he played a deserter.

Donald Trump spoke in Pittsburgh Thursday where he called for peace and reconciliation on the streets of Charlotte. He said that for one thug, there are hundreds of good, law-abiding black families. Democrats ripped Donald Trump for wanting to bring back stop-and-frisk, and “Happy Days.”

Hillary Clinton declined to take a neuro-cognitive test to vouch for her mental fitness. On the same day, Trump staffers had

to deny charges he’s clinically insane. In Anglo-American legal traditions, the decision over who’s sane and who isn’t is generally made by the person with the key.

The Navy announced plans to name a ship after Robert F. Kennedy. There are already naval ships named after his father Joe and his brothers John and Joe Jr. So far there are no plans to pay tribute to Ted in similar fashion, but if that changes they’re sure to name a submarine after him.

Charlotte remained in chaos Thursday as protestors over a police shooting refused to disperse and observe the midnight curfew.

Looting and fires broke out spontaneously. The fires were accidentally set by looters who were calling their friends on their new Samsung Galaxy smart phones.

North Carolina’s governor called out the National Guard Thursday to try to quell the rioting and looting by protestors in

Charlotte over the police shooting. Everybody got into the act.

The trans-gender community in North Carolina expressed their dissatisfaction by going in the bushes.

President Obama opened the Smithsonian National Museum of African-American History and Culture in Washington D.C. Saturday. It celebrates the African-American experience in the United States. The museum will feature an interactive exhibit where the armed white security guard shoots a visitor for no reason.

CBS News reports animal sanctuaries in the U.S. are bracing for a huge influx of chimpanzees since the U.S. government recently stopped funding experiments on chimps. There’s always work for apes. Animal Planet should film a remake of Mr. Smith Goes to Washington with an all-baboon cast.

When I retired as managing editor of this newspaper, I never thought I would be writing a letter to the editor. An event that happened last week has prompted me to do just that.

There have been many stories about missing dogs. Here is another one. What makes this story different is this dog did not run away. This dog is a 25-year old,

250-pound English bulldog. It happens to be a concrete statue that has faithfully guarded our yard and been a symbol of the real English bulldogs who were our companions and are no longer with us. Unfortunately, our statue is no longer with us. It went missing this past Thursday night from its own yard.

It has been suggested this was a homecoming prank pulled by local teens. I hope this is not the case. I have always been an advocate of local teens. When a now-retired

teacher complained about tepeeing and other nondestructive behavior surrounding homecoming events, I always felt this teacher was overreacting. But, this is different. This is all out theft.

Those responsible have no idea the significance of this part of our lives and probably don’t care.

Chances are, we will never see this old friend of ours again, but if by chance somebody would see the old boy, please send him home. It would be appreciated and maybe even restore our faith in people.

Insurance scam

by Frank Gale Creston

It appears that our city council does not agree with the statement, “Shop at home and support your local business owner.”

At least it seems that way when we get a letter from an

out-of-state insurance company explaining their sewer line insurance policy. A letter which has the city of Creston logo at the top of the letter, which was approved by the council to allow the company to offer the policy and finally signed by the mayor.

A quick phone call to my local

insurance agent indicated that most home owners’ policies can include a sewer line rider. If true, then we have a scammer trying to sell a policy not needed.

So what is it? Do we support our local merchants or do we support those out of state scammers?

Stage version of ‘Frozen’ musical changes its director NEW YORK (AP) — Some changes are coming in the kingdom of Arendelle: Tony Award-winning director Michael Grandage has been officially unveiled to helm the upcoming stage musical “Frozen.”

Alex Timbers, a twotime Tony Award nominee who directed “Peter and the Starcatcher,” ‘’Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson,” ‘’The Pee-Wee Herman Show” and “Rocky” on Broadway, had been initially tapped to direct “Frozen” but left this summer.

Grandage won the Tony Award for his direction of “Red,” John Logan’s acclaimed drama about painter Mark Rothko. His recent Broadway work include “The Cripple of Inishmaan,” ‘’Hughie” and “Evita.”

Disney Theatrical Pro-

ductions said it will mount the show at the Buell Theatre in the Denver Center for the Performing Arts in August 2017. It is expected to land on Broadway in 2018 alongside its hits “Aladdin” and “The Lion King.” Casting will be announced later.

The husband-and-wife songwriting team of Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez, who wrote music for the blockbuster 2014 film, is returning to work on the stage show, and Jennifer Lee, co-director and screenwriter of the film, is writing the story.

In other “Frozen” news, Christopher Oram will design the sets and costumes.

He replaces Bob Crowley, a Disney veteran who designed “Aida,” ‘’Tarzan” and “Mary Poppins” for the stage.

NEW YORK (AP) — The national tour of the hit play “The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time” is being led by a young actor from Vermont with a special tie to the guy who won a Tony Award in the show.

Adam Langdon is a 2015 graduate of The Juilliard School of Drama, where he was mentored by Alex Sharp, who went on to beat Bradley Cooper and Bill Nighy for a Tony when he played the hero in “Curious,” a quirky, 15-yearold boy with an exceptional brain.

The play , based on an adaptation of Mark Haddon’s best-selling novel, is a swirling, kaleidoscopic story about Christopher Boone, an English teen with Asperger’s syndrome who tries to find a dog’s killer.

Sharp was a year ahead of Langdon at school and the older actor looked out for the younger one. When Langdon went to see his former mentor make his Broadway debut in “Curious,” he was

impressed but daunted.

“It just blew my mind, the show, and I never thought I could do something like that,” said Langdon, 23, who grew up outside Burlington, Vermont. “He came up to me after the show and he was like, ‘This is a part you’ll do.’ And I was like, ‘I think not.’ There are wall flips and things and I’m just this skinny guy.”

Now, a few years later, Langdon has nabbed the role in the touring version, which kicks off in Rochester, New York, on Tuesday and will play in more than 30 cities, including Boston, Denver, Cleveland, San Francisco, Seattle and Los Angeles. (Benjamin Wheelwright will play Christopher for certain shows.)

The play won five Tony Awards — including best play — and was adapted by playwright Simon Stephens and directed

by Marianne Elliott, who also co-directed the Tony Award-winning “War Horse.”

(Some have called it Hamlet mixed with Cirque du Soleil.) Elliott won the best director Tony for her work.

“She’s really raised the level of what a non-musical can be with still having the people being the heart of the story despite the big theatrical elements,” said Maria Elena Ramirez, the Salt Lake City-raised actress who will be playing Christopher’s kindly teacher.

In May, the “Curious” tour will roll into Denver and Gillette will get to perform at the very place where he fell in love with acting. “It’s just so exciting to be a part of,” he said.

Ramirez and Gillette will be working on their British accents, but that comes easily to Langdon, whose mother is British and who studied in London at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.

Stem the surge for appliances Dear Heloise: I was reading about how long APPLIANCES should last. I have a question regarding these new appliances: Should we be using surge protectors on them? They do have a small computer in them. The reason I ask is that I had a refrigerator (4 years old), and there was a power surge. I called a repairman out, and he said it was the motherboard, which would cost $500 to $800 to fix. So I bought a new refrigerator and put a surge protector on it. – Ron T., Huntington Beach, Calif.

Great question, and the quick answer is YES! Surge protectors should be used on major appliances in your home, with refrigerators and washing machines being first on the list because they both contain at least one control board. The surge protector will help protect against a sudden increase, or surge, in voltage. They are available in most stores and even online, so shop around for what will work best in your home.

Prices vary, and not all surge protectors are the same.

For smaller appliances, like toaster ovens, get in the habit of unplugging those items when they are not in use. – Heloise EMAILED INSTRUCTIONS Dear Heloise: I bought a big desk (unassembled) that

Hints from Heloise was delivered in a box with bags of multiple-size screws, etc. – but no instructions.

There was nothing on the website, so I contacted the company, which emailed the instructions – all 13 pages! It turned out great, but some instructions were counterintuitive, so it’s a good thing I got them! – Lyn R. in Houston This is an example of technology being a great resource. Emailing instructions when you cannot find them otherwise or they are not included with a product is so fast and easy. – Heloise HAND SOAP Dear Heloise: We have several foaming hand-soap dispensers in our house.

When I purchased the liquid hand-soap replacement at the grocery store and refilled the dispensers, I noticed that the dispensers did not produce foam. I found that the replacement soap was too thick to work in the dispensers. The remedy for this was to cut the replacement soap

HEEL CHECK Dear Heloise: Ladies, check the heels of your shoes every time you put on a pair. They can become worn down and unsightly before you realize it. Also, pay particular attention to the area around the heel of your right shoe. That’s the foot you drive with, and it can become scarred and scratched long before the left one. – Peggy C., Cypress, Texas TAPE END Dear Heloise: Packing boxes can be annoying when the end of the tape is difficult to find and retrieve.

Horoscope Wednesday, Sept. 28, 2016 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Confusion at work might get you in trouble with an authority figure today. To be safe, double-check all of your work before you show it to others.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)Children might be an increased responsibility today.

Perhaps because of this, some kind of confusion will create a problem. Make sure you know what’s happening.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)Family discussions might be stressful today. You can’t please everyone. Don’t be dishonest to avoid conflict, because it only will make things worse.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)You might second-guess yourself today because you’re not sure about something.

Unfortunately, a boss at work won’t like this. Tread carefully!

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Be careful how you handle financial matters today, because some kind of confusion or deceit is possible. This especially applies to social situations, sports events and dealing with children.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Life is hard today; it’s just one of those things. Fortunately, it’s temporary and will be gone in 24 hours. Therefore, don’t be discouraged. Stay calm and carry on.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) One reason there might be some confusion in your life today is because someone is not telling the truth. If you think something looks suspicious, it is.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)Relations with a friend or a member of a group are strained today, possibly because of money matters or a possession you own. Make sure you have your facts right.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is a poor day to ask a boss or parent for a favor or approval. Postpone this kind of thing for another day. Hard work is your best choice today.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Do not be cocky in matters related to politics, religion or racial issues today. Something you don’t know about could blindside you. If you’re not sure about something, stay silent. Assume nothing.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)Double-check all finan-

cial matters and negotiations dealing with shared property, inheritances and jointly held possessions. Something does not pass muster. This is a poor day to sign important papers.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) You have to accommodate others today. Nevertheless, make sure that everything is aboveboard and on the up and up, because something is fishy. If you’re not sure what to do, do nothing.

YOU BORN TODAY You are an excellent communicator. You

are intelligent and idealistic.

You’re also friendly, loyal and cheerful. Justice and fair play are important to you. A new nine-year cycle is beginning for you. This opens up many possibilities. You might start a new business activity or change residences. Open any door, because your future is in your hands.

Southwestern Community College’s volleyball team had made some good strides in recent matches heading into Monday’s Iowa Community College Athletic Conference matchup against Marshalltown Community College.

The Tigers showed the Spartans there’s still plenty of work to be done to improve.

Marshalltown took the match in three straight sets, winning 25-12, 25-22 and 2513 at the SWCC Gym. The Tigers took control from the opening set.

“We didn’t come out prepared from the beginning,” said Southwestern Community College coach Aleesha Cleaver. “That’s what happened.”

Marshalltown’s powerful offense often put down many kills early, deflating Southwestern.

“We lost confidence,”

erything from the beginning.

We never could get anything going.”

The Tigers swept the Spartans for the second time this season.

Cleaver was hoping the Spartans could push the Tigers some more than they did.

“This is disappointing,” Cleaver said. “We haven’t taken steps forward. I was hoping we could at least take one or two sets from them.”

UP NEXT — SWCC, 3-14, is back on the court Wednesday hosting Northeast Community College, with first serve set for 7 p.m.

“We have a lot to work on before our matches Wednesday,” Cleaver said.

Baker accepts challenge, bests field at O-M

By RYAN KRONBERG CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

ORIENT — Creston’s Brielle Baker found herself in a spot she hasn’t been in much this season at Monday’s Orient-Macksburg Cross Country Invitational.

The Panther sophomore handled the challenge of being a frontrunner well in winning the race in 21 minutes, 45 second Monday at Lake Orient Recreation Area.

“This was a good test for her to go out and challenge herself,” said Creston coach Pat Schlapia. “She was chasing the gator right from the get-go.”

She delivered when counted on in winning by 31 seconds over CAM’s Katlyn Holaday and by 59 seconds over Diagonal’s Maddie Lohmann.

“It was just nice to see her go out like that,” Schlapia said. “There was some tough individual competition.”

Baker cruised from the front, easily putting the pack well in the rear view mirror.

“She handled it real well,” Schlapia said. “She kept bearing down.

She bore down and ran as tough as nails.”

Rachel Shepherd was ninth in 24:30, while Allivea Skarda was 10th in 24:31. They were able to cut the gap from Baker to under two minutes.

“That’s good to see with that,” Schlapia said. “That’s one thing we’ve been harping on the girls is we need to close that gap between Brielle and the second girl. Brielle’s not going to slow down. We need to XC| 9A

Area football: Cobb, Timberwolves roll past Blue Devils

By RYAN KRONBERG CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

MARTENSDALE — Southwest Valley junior quarterback Chance Cobb is proving to teams in Class A District 7 how much of a diverse threat he is.

Martensdale-St. Marys witnessed what Cobb can do with both his arms and his legs.

Cobb rushed for 144 yards and threw for another 81 as the Timberwolves routed the Blue Devils 55-12 in a Class A District 7 matchup.

Cobb accounted for three touchdowns, one passing and two more rushing.

In all, six Timberwolves crossed the goal line.

keep improving ourselves.

Having Rachel and Allivea within 2:45, that was good to see.”

Creston’s girls claimed the team title for the fourth straight year. Schlapia ran six girls on varsity. He noted how all six ran well.

Five of the six Panther girls on varsity medaled. The top 15 took home medals.

“It was a total team effort getting that plaque again,” Schlapia said.

On the JV side, Rachel Wignall was victorious.

“That was quite a sight to see her come across first in the JV,” Schlapia said. “She was excited about that.”

Lohmann continues to grow in her first season out for cross country.

“We’re proud of the way

FB: CONT. FROM | 9A

Southwest Valley coach Anthony Donahoo credited the play by the five up front.

“It all starts with the guys up front,” Donahoo said.

“Those guys did a great job.”

The Timberwolves were more than just the Cobb show. Aiden Gaule had 96 yards rushing and two twouchdowns. Jace Petersen had four carries for 48 yards and one score. Jerad Shires had seven rushes for 36 yards and one score. Hayden Bayles also had one touchdown.

The passing game clicked when Cobb found Addison Bull on a 71-yard touchdown strike.

Cobb’s connection with Bull showed the experience the TImberwolves have playing together.

“These guys have played together for three years,” Donahoo said. “They know what’s happening. Cobb hit Bull on a big-time pass.

That’s fun to watch. You can’t teach that kind of stuff.”

Southwest Valley’s defense bent a bit early, giving up 12 points in the first half.

However, it was a stone wall after that, allowing the offense to score 40 unanswered points to end the game.

she ran,” said Diagonal coach Matt Warren. “She just keeps improving.”

Lohmann closed well.

“She was a little closer to the girls ahead of her than she was last week at Creston,” Warren said.

The goal is steady growth heading into the home stretch of the season.

“We just try to keep building on each meet,” Warren said. “We just need to come out and compete, just try to do better.”

The meet was a bit of a different one for East Union.

Typically they have Monday’s open for practice before racing on Tuesday.

“The biggest thing is we’ve always had a day before to get ready,” said East Union coach Rich Bryson.

The Eagle girls were led

by Jena Proffitt’s fifth-place finish.

Molly McNeil placed 14th and Kate Sutton was 23rd.

“Molly McNeil ran lights out,” Bryson said. “She did a great job.”

McNeil was just the latest Eagle to step up.

The Eagles took another step towards their goal of performing their best at the end of the season.

“We’re looking to get some consistency,” Bryson said. “Hopefully the consistency will come. We want to get close to start peaking in a couple of weeks.”

Emma Harper was back in limited duty after missing the Creston meet with an illness.

Bryson liked what he saw from her in a race she ended just past the one-mile mark.

“She felt really good,” Bryson said. “That was the idea to get a mile, a mile and a half in and see how she feels.”

Orient-Macksburg’s girls were led by Cortney Gross’ 25th-place finish.

Creston’s boys were led by

Ben Irr’s second-place finish.

Irr stayed in the lead pack throughout and passed West Central Valley’s Tyler McKibbin later in the race.

“It was a nice race for Ben,” Schlapia said. “He challenged the two West Central Valley boys most of the race. He was hanging close in that third spot for the mile. He had a nice second to third mile. He was able to close the gap and able to overcome him and get second.”

Isaac Wignall was Creston’s other medalist, placing 14th.

The Panther boys were fourth as a team. Earlham won with 52 points. West Central Valley was second with 55 points. Nodaway Valley’s JV team was third with 85 points, followed by the Panthers with 105 points.

Nodaway Valley’s JV boys were led Joshua Baudler’s seventh-place finish.

East Union’s boys were led by Cole Nelson’s 29thplace finish.

Both Creston teams benefited from the run early in the week coming off the home meet last week and Homecoming festivities.

“This was something we needed to get back and get refocused at the task at hand,” Schlapia said.

“I’m so proud of our defense,” Donahoo said. “They stiffened up, especially our defensive front.”

Donahoo touted the work senior Colby Cooper did in the secondary.

“They were testing him quite a bit,” Donahoo said.

“He had an interception and a few pass breakups.”

Junior Brett Schafroth led the defense with six solo tackles and eight assists.

Grant Maurer had two solos and four assists. Hunter Poston had one solo and seven assists. Petersen had three solos and two assists.

UP NEXT — Southwest Valley (3-2, 2-1) travels to Nodaway Valley (1-4, 1-2).

The Wolverines fell to Griswold 44-28.

“We know we’ve got a big test,” Donahoo said.

“They’re going to be coming in pretty confidence. We are too. We’ve got a lot of weapons.”

a contest, and had pitched three straight shutouts.

Pella Christian demonstrated to the Mount Ayr faithful and team just how good they are.

The Eagles steamrolled to a 34-0 lead after one quarter and cruised to a 62-14 victory.

“They’re every bit as good as advertised,” said Mount Ayr co-coach Delwyn Showalter. “They’re a nice team.”

Pella Christian took advantage of its many offensive weapons in scoring at will in the first half, with senior quarterback Levi Jungling leading the way. Jungling rushed for 111 yards and two touchdown on eight carries.

In the passing game, he was a perfect 4-for-4 for 115 yards and three touchdowns.

“They have tremendous speed and quickness,” Showalter said. “They’re shifty.

They’re very, very tough to tackle.”

Pella Christian’s first score came a mere 35 seconds into the contest. The Eagles’ early score deflated the Raiders.

“We were shell-shocked,” Showalter said. “They had their way with us. They scored whenever they wanted in the first half.”

Mistakes compounded the issue for the Raiders.

“We started to do just silly things,” Showalter said.

“We didn’t cover the ball on a kickoff, things like that. It

was tough to get people to stay focused.”

The Eagles mauled the Raiders up front on both sides of the ball.

“We’ve played Pella Christian a number of times and this is the most physical Pella Christian team we’ve seen,” Showalter said. “They’ve got good size. They’re so quick, not just their skill players.

Their line destroyed us up front. They got a push on us. We were just getting out of our stance and they were driving us down the field.”

The Eagles were elusive offensively.

“There were a number of times we’d be going in to make a nice tackle on them.

Then the kid would stop, let us go by him and he’d take off again,” Showalter said.

“We were grabbing for air.

They were turning a 10-yard run into a 30-yard run.”

The Raiders did regroup at halftime, and scored two touchdowns in the second half.

“Our kids came out and wanted to do whatever they could to redeem themselves,” Showalter said.

“That’s tough on their pride.

They don’t want to go out there and play like that.

They showed what they were capable of. I’m proud of the way they hung in there.”

The loss served as a wakeup call for the Raiders.

“Now we understand what

we have to do to compete at that level,” Showalter said.

“We’re at the point where we need to get an understanding of where the bar is and how we’re going to get over that bar.”

UP NEXT — Mount Ayr (3-2, 1-2) faces another stiff test Friday traveling to Pleasantville. The Trojans (5-0, 3-0) defeated Woodward Academy Friday.

“It doesn’t get any easier,” Showalter said. “We’ll regroup and get after it in practice this week. We’ll go to Pleasantville and see if we can play with them for four quarters.”

East Union, while a substandard first quarter hurt them in a loss to Lenox.

Those struggles carried over against the Vikings.

Murray’s offense sputtered again.

“The offense has been struggling to stay on track, finding the endzone,” Fulton said. Murray matched Stanton’s intensity.

“They were a physical team and we gave it right back to them,” Fulton said.

“It was a good matchup.”

Stanton’s defense picked off four passes and recovered four fumbles.

“Unfortunately, we couldn’t execute on offense,” Fulton said. “They sat back in a 3-2-3 zone coverage. We struggled to move the ball. Their linebackers flowed well. They made it tough on us.”

Drake Johnson had two interceptions, while Connor Hutlman and Brandon Peterson each had one.

Murray’s defense hung in well, but Stanton found ways to punch the ball into the endzone.

“The defense has played well,” Fulton said.

UP NEXT — Murray (2-3, 0-3) faces a stiff test when seventh-ranked Bedford comes to Murray. The Bulldogs (5-0, 3-0) defeated Wayne 46-6 Friday.

Eagles showcase talents in win over Raiders MOUNT AYR — Pella Christian came into Friday’s Class 1A District 5 football game with quite the reputation.

The second-ranked Eagles entered averaged a whopping 56-plus points per game coming in. At the same time, their defense had allowed only an average of five points

Stanton defense frustrates Murray STANTON — The spark that has been missing for Murray the past two weeks remained elusive once more.

Stanton capitalized early and took Murray out of the contest, leading to a 36-0 Vikings win in Eight-player District 6 action.

The Vikings jumped out to a 14-0 lead early in the first half.

“We came out and just didn’t quite have the energy we hoped to,” said Murray coach Taylor Fulton. “We didn’t play up to the standard where we should be.”

The Mustangs have struggled to finish games the past two weeks. A poor fourth quarter cost them in a loss to

RACING Update

Harvick holds off Kenseth to win at New Hampshire LOUDON, N.H. (AP) — Kevin Harvick took the lead late in the race, then held off Matt Kenseth to win the Bad Boy Off Road 300 NASCAR Cup race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway on Sunday.

The victory means Harvick will join Martin Truex Jr. — who won the first race of the Chase last week and finished seventh Sunday — when the second round of the Chase begins in two weeks at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Harvick took the lead after a restart on Lap 295 of 300. He started alongside Kenseth, who had led for 105 laps, on the front row and quickly pulled away.

Kyle Busch, who closed in on the leaders late in the race, finished third, with Brad Keselowski ending up fourth. Truex led a race-high 141 laps, but dropped several spots from second during a late restart.

Four drivers in positions 13-16 in points — Jamie McMurray, Austin Dillon, Tony Stewart and Chris Buescher — will go to next week’s race at Dover facing elimination from the Chase unless one of them can win or any of them can move into the top 12.

Turning point

Harvick was lined up inside leader Kenseth on the front row of the final

restart of the race. When Kenseth spun his tires on the restart, Harvick took advantage and grabbed the lead, one he wouldn’t relinquish over the final six laps of the race.

Chase update How the NASCAR Chase drivers fared: 1. Brad Keselowski (2,087 points): Fifthplace finish Sunday moved him to top spot in standings and secure points spot for advancing.

2. Martin Truex Jr. (1 behind)*: Had the best car for most of the race (led 141 laps), but late restarts failed him in seventh-place finish.

3. Kyle Busch (2 behind): Had the fastest car late in the race, but couldn’t have enough time.

4. Matt Kenseth (9 behind): Said he spun his tires on final restart, essentially handing the race to Kevin Harvick.

5. Joey Logano (14 behind): Eleventh-place finish pretty good considering he was a lap down at one point.

6. Kevin Harvick (16 behind)*: Race winner has already checked his bags to Charlotte and second-round of the Chase.

8. Jimmie Johnson (17 behind): Was strong early in the race, eventually finished eighth.

a non-competitive one. Finishes 30th, two laps down. *Chase race winner

Observations

—The race got off to a fast start with no cautions until Lap 125. But, at crunch time, the yellow flag flew four times over the last 59 laps.

—Danica Patrick had a few moments in the sun, leading nine laps during the race’s late stages. But she wasn’t on the same pit rotation as the leaders and ultimately finished 18th.

—The top non-Chase driver was Kasey Kahne, who finished ninth. He was seventh last week at Chicagoland and now has four consecutive top-10 finishes — too little, too late.

—After last week’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 400 at Chicagoland Speedway and Sunday’s Bad Boy Off Road 300 at New Hampshire, the name of this week’s race at Dover (Del.) International Speedway — the AAA 400 — seems pretty tame.

They said it

“I was content with where we were.

But, once you get up there in the front like that, you’ve got to take a chance to try to win.” — Kevin Harvick.
