COUNTY SUPERVISORS

Osage complete, focus now on culverts

By BAILEY POOLMAN

CNA staff reporter bpoolman@crestonnews.com

The three-mile stretch of Osage Street northeast of Creston that had been under construction was completed Sept. 22, and now the focus of the Union County Secondary Roads employees is culvert repairs.

Osage Street did not go quite to plan, according to Union County Engineer Steve Akes.

“When we first started, it rained a lot and slowed us down, but the last mile went pretty fast,” Akes said. Akes “There were some delays that weren’t weather related.”

Several Union County supervisors went to Osage to drive it themselves. At that time, however, there was

still work to be done.

“The north end of Osage that comes off of the REA Road was just fine, but w h a t came off of the Townline Road ... was an absolute nightmare,” Monday said Lois Monday, Union County supervisor.

Monday said there was a substantial amount of mud in the road, and that it also took too long to clean the ditches along Osage Street.

“We had listened for three or four weeks about how bad it was, and it just didn’t feel like we got anything done,” Monday said.

The second time Monday said she drove along Osage, however, the road was cleaned up.

“Probably there were other roads that people thought were just as bad,” Monday said, “But that one

was a milestone to take care of.”

“I think it looks good. I believe it’s a lot better, and then, once the road gets packed down and the rock gets seated in, it’ll be even better,” said Ron Riley, Union County Board of Supervisors chairperson.

Before completion, workers also repaired several culverts and cleaned the ditches out which contained items like an old mattress and toilet.

“With this particular project it would be the normal labor, equipment and material,” Akes said. “It was probably slightly more (cost) because we didn’t anticipate having to spend as much time ditch cleaning, and then we had to blade it a few more times because of the rain.”

The total cost of the road was $54,614.17. That cost is split into three categories: $8,931.92 for labor, $27,859.55 for materials and ROADS | 2A

Implementation of proposed Iowa trapping rules delayed DES MOINES (AP) — The implementation of a proposed set of turtle trapping restrictions in Iowa has been delayed.

The Des Moines Register reports the restrictions have stalled in Gov. Terry Branstad’s office. Iowa lawmakers approved a bill during the last legislative session requiring the state’s Depart-

ment of Natural Resources to set a trapping season and a daily catch limit for commercial turtle trapping.

Commercial trappers are currently allowed to catch unlimited numbers of certain turtles.

A spokesman for the governor said the process has been delayed to make sure all people who would be

affected have their voices heard.

Molly Hanson, executive director of Iowa Rivers Revival, which has supported limits on commercial turtle trapping, says the governor’s reasoning is invalid because there have been extensive periods for people to comment on the restrictions.

Clinton’s ‘nasty’ Trump ads are mostly his own words WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump says Hillary Clinton is making “nasty” ads about him. Most of Clinton’s commercials about Trump, though, merely include clips of him speaking.

Her campaign seems to have concluded that Trump is his own worst enemy.

The most frequently used Clinton advertisements about Trump have a common theme: They show regular people, often in the flicker of a television set, spliced with footage of Trump making some of his most incendiary comments.

The Republican presidential nominee’s decades in the spotlight, including as a reality television show host, have given the Democratic contender an unusual bounty of ad material.

Trump is paying attention.

During Monday’s debate, he told Clinton he’s n o t i c e d Trump “the very nasty commercials that you do on me in so many different ways, which I don’t do on you.”

That prompted Shonda Rhimes, a television producer and Clinton supporter, to tweet: “Wait. She did not run ads that say mean things. She ran ads that use audio of his own mean nasty statements.”

The Associated Press reviewed Clinton’s 32 different general election ads that have aired on broadcast television and national cable and

• YOUR FAVORITE FAREWAY FOOD ITEM: Cherrywood-smoked ham

found 24 that show or mention Trump. The majority of those feature raw footage of him rather than others opining on his words and actions.

Trump’s assessment at the debate that he’s not running “nasty” ads about Clinton also isn’t quite right.

Through this week, his campaign had only four different ads — Clinton three of which swat at Clinton, including one that highlights her “basket of deplorables” comment about his supporters.

to expand his advertising — promising at least $100 million in TV spots by Election Day — Clinton has already spent $136 million on general election spots, Kantar Media’s political ad tracker shows.

Hope Hicks, Trump’s campaign spokeswoman, did not respond to a request for comment about why Trump characterized the Clinton ads about him as “nasty.” During the debate, he seemed to say it’s because they lack context.

“You know, Hillary is hitting me with tremendous commercials,” he said.

“Some of it’s said in entertainment.” He named Rosie O’Donnell as one of his targets, saying “she deserves it and nobody feels sorry for her.”

One of Clinton’s newest ads, called “Mirrors,” shows girls looking at their reflections, brushing their hair and taking selfies while Trump says things like “look her right in that fat, ugly face of hers” and “a person who is flat-chested is very hard to be a 10.” Trump lobbed the former barb at O’Donnell and the latter at actress Nicollette Sheridan.

The 30-second spot debuted late last week and has already aired 4,000 times.

It’s a female-specific twist on what has been her most frequently shown ad, called “Role Models.”

In that spot, which has aired more than 15,300 times since it debuted in mid-July, children are lounging around television sets as Trump says, “I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t

lose any voters, OK,” and replays a clip of him saying a curse word, which is bleeped out.

The spot ends with the text: “Our children are watching. What kind of president will they see?”

Other Clinton ads seek to portray Trump as an unsteady leader by highlighting his comments about turning to himself and Sunday talk shows for military advice.

“I am speaking with myself because I have a very good brain,” Trump says in an interview that’s included in several Clinton spots.

The campaign also beams his words into Democratic households that Clinton is trying to motivate.

In Spanish-language commercials, voters can hear Trump’s description at his campaign kickoff last year of some Mexican immigrants as “rapists” and “criminals.” In a new commercial on BET, Trump’s question to African-Americans at a recent campaign stop, “What the hell do you have to lose?” by voting for him is played. The Clinton campaign answers with text on the screen: “EVERYTHING.” Still more Trump footage finds its way into dozens of ads by Priorities USA, a super PAC backing Clinton.

Trump has continued to provide a steady stream of new material.

During the debate, Clinton mentioned Alicia Machado, a former Miss Universe whom Trump had called “Miss Piggy” when he owned the pageant. Trump continued talking about Machado the next morning. “She gained a massive amount of weight, and it was a real problem,” he told Fox News.

That clip is now part of a Clinton campaign video that went online Wednesday.

$17,822.70 for equipment.

“We just have to continue to try to address the problems that are out there and come up with some ideas to make them better,” Riley said. “I think some of those ideas or solutions would be to try to come up with some more money to put more rock down next year and basically get out and have the maintainer guys make an effort to knock the shoulders off the road and maintain a better crown in the roads. ...

It’ll be an ongoing process.”

Other projects The next main project

Akes said Union County Secondary Roads employees will focus on is to repair culverts throughout the county.

There are about 4,000 culverts across Union County.

Culverts last approximately 20 years because of rust from running water from one side of a road to the other, a culvert’s main objective.

“We’re required to make water go where it would have gone had the road not been there,” Akes said. “If it naturally went that way before the road existed, you about have to make the water go that way after the road existed.”

Akes said his employees will repair from eight to 10 culverts before the weather gets too cold, which will

add up to about 30 culverts repaired for 2016. Monday hopes the work throughout the county will be maintained.

“I know the roads are bad, I know they are. And if they’re really, really bad, I’m sure we could find the funds. ... Keep the roads up and they won’t go bad all at once,” Monday said. “Everybody has to pull together in the same direction. You can’t just be like a piece of taffy and one pull one way and one pull the other ... and not have an end result.”

Monday also said she does not want to take more bonds out to complete large projects, as the county has already paid off approximately $6.5 million in bond debt in the past eight years.

The original bonds for county supervisors, which were for the CHS bean mill plant and road projects, were set at $515,000 in 2007, $4,245,000 in 2009, $3,980,000 in 2010 and $3,300,000 in 2011, which added up to a total county debt of $12,040,000.

As of September 2015, county supervisors have made payments to each of the bonds, and now, the total debt is at $5,525,000. That is a difference of $6,515,000.

“I don’t really think we’ve changed a lot since then (2007),” Riley said. “We’ve just tried to do the best we can with the budget we have.

In 2007, I don’t think we were giving 100 percent of the secondary roads budget, and now we’re at 100 percent of the secondary roads budget.”

AMCOM names aviation mechanic as top logistics assistance representative REDSTONE ARSENAL, Ala. – Becoming an Aviation and Missile Command logistics assistance representative seems to have always been in the cards for Creston native Wayne D. Shearer.

First, as a soldier and a UH60 Black Hawk mechanic deployed to Bosnia in 1996, Shearer was recruited by the logistics assistance representatives (LAR) supporting his unit. But, with four more years until retirement, Shearer put off any thoughts about the type of civilian employment he would pursue after the Army.

Then, in 2008, after retirement and while working as an aircraft mechanic contractor at Fort Polk, Louisiana, Shearer was once again asked if he wanted to be an Army aviation and missile command (AMCOM) LAR. “Two LARs telling me the same thing 12 years apart, I figured they knew I could do the job. So, I polished the resume and submitted it, and a few months later, I got the call that I had been selected,” Shearer said.

Since then, Shearer has been one of the go-to aviation LARs at Fort Polk, where he is part of a threeman logistics support team that provides technical and logistical support to several different combat aviation brigades that train annually at the installation’s joint readiness training center.

His work with those units has won him recognition as AMCOM’s 2015 Logistics Assistance Representative.

He was recognized Aug. 17 during the AMCOM 101 for Aviation at Redstone Arsenal.

“The LAR office at Fort Polk is a place where we constantly search out each other’s advice and direction,” Shearer said of his teammates. “I can say that many of my accomplishments, which led to my selection as AMCOM LAR of the year, would not have been possible without the help of my fellow LARs.” Shearer provides technical and logistical support for every Army active duty combat aviation brigade with the

exception of those stationed in Europe, Korea and Joint Base Lewis McChord (Washington). He provides support to combat aviation brigades from the 10th Mountain Division (Fort Drum, New York), 82nd Airborne Division (Fort Bragg, North Carolina) and the 101st Airborne Division (Fort Campbell, Kyentucky) that frequently train at JRTC. He just recently supported two National Guard CABs on back-to-back rotations at JRTC and provides support to the tenant aviation unit at JRTC, the 5th Aviation Battalion.

“I work with aviation units providing instructions to make unique repairs to equipment, mostly aircraft, with the approval of the Aviation and Missile Research, Development and Engineering Center engineers. Those repairs are for issues not addressed in the tech manuals for the particular aircraft involved,” Shearer said.

“I also assist units with troubleshooting aircraft actions in order to speed up the process to return the aircraft to a flyable condition,” he said. “When the action requires a part that is not readily available locally, I assist the unit in locating parts. When the unit has established a valid request in the supply system, I can reach out to different agencies to get the part moving quicker through the supply system. I will monitor that movement and report my findings to the supported unit. I also provide training to Soldiers on AMCOM equipment or on a technical task that may be outside of the Soldier’s expertise or comfort level.”

Shearer knows it’s his background as an Army Black Hawk mechanic that qualified him for his civilian career.

“I was hired basically as a Black Hawk LAR because of my several years of experience working on Black Hawks in the Army,” he said.

“I also had the opportunity between my retirement and my being hired as a LAR to work in several different positions as a contractor provid-

ing maintenance support to the 5th Aviation Battalion at Fort Polk.

“The different duties I had as a quality assurance lead and, at times, as the shift maintenance supervisor, I think really rounded out my qualifications for the LAR job. I have knowledge of what it really takes to keep aircraft flying beyond what wrench to use on a particular nut.”

But being successful as a LAR involves more than previous experience. It also requires the ability to work though issues and to consider different solutions.

The reward for Shearer is found in the sharing of information and the improvement of soldier skills.

“It’s when I see a soldier who has come to me in the past that needed some assistance on an issue and I have provided him or her with the tools they need to accomplish their mission. And, then, a few months later, I see that same soldier using that tool and also sharing their knowledge with someone else,” he said.

Shearer has deployed three times as a LAR. His first deployment in November 2009 to April 2010 to Forward Operating Base Wolverine in Afghanistan built on his aircraft mechanic knowledge in a surprising way.

“When I got to the FOB, I found out I was also supporting eight AH-64D Apaches, besides 10 Black Hawks” he said. “At the time, I had very little experience with the Apache. But, I followed the advice I had gotten from others – don’t hesitate to call

someone who does know and use the LAR network because somewhere out there is someone who will call you for Black Hawk assistance. By the end of the deployment, with the assistance of other LARS and the unit’s quality control shop, I had a good understanding of the Apache.”

He also deployed July 2011 to January 2012 to Combat Operating Base Basra, Iraq, and Camp Behring, Kuwait in support of three units assigned to the 29th Combat Aviation Brigade, and May to September 2014 to Forward Operating Base Shindand, Afghanistan in support of the 2-158th Aviation Battalion.

Whether deployed or at Fort Polk, Shearer measures a LAR’s value by the quality of support they provide to the mission.

Shearer highly recommends the LAR experience to anyone who has the technical experience to support the Army mission.

“Jump on in. The water is fine,” he said. “Expect to continue your quest for knowledge; you’re going to get training on subjects you would have thought never existed. I didn’t know what went on in the acquisition and support processes that are required for Army equipment. It’s been a learning experience and a very rewarding way to continue to serve soldiers and Army aviation.”

Shearer is a 1979 graduate of Creston Senior High School. His mother is Wilma M. Shearer of Creston.

Lock in cellphone contact info Dear Heloise: I recently read a hint about including a picture of a handwritten note in the “Picture File” of your cellphone so that an honest person can find that information and RETURN YOUR PHONE. Here’s what I suggest instead: 1. Create a document with “This phone belongs to ...” and any other information a “finder of your phone” might need to know.

2. Take a picture of this document with your cellphone.

3. Now go to your phone settings and then go to “Wallpaper.”

4. Click on “Choose a New Wallpaper,” and choose the picture you’ve just taken.

5. Set that picture to appear on your locked screen.

Should you lose your phone, anyone who finds it won’t have any access to your files, only to the information on your locked screen. – Linda S., Agoura, Calif.

Hints from Heloise ORANGE JUICE BEFORE BEDTIME Dear Heloise: My husband and I drink a very small amount of orange juice (1-2 ounces). It seems to help with acid reflux or heartburn.

We were planning a trip and didn’t want to carry around a large container of OJ, but wanted some to have in the hotel room at night. I knew orange-flavored drinks came in smaller containers, and one day I came across small containers of real orange juice in the cooler section of the store.

These are kid-size and are easy to keep cold in the ice bucket at a hotel. They also have a small opening for a straw so they don’t spill easily. This allowed us to have OJ at night without having to lug the extra weight of a large jug. – Sandy S., Tennessee Colony, Texas

daughter ironing her shirt one morning before school.

As I took a closer look, I realized she didn’t even have the iron plugged in. I asked her why she didn’t have the iron on, and her reply was, “The tag says to use a cool iron.” – J.F., Frankton, Ind. A BETTER PAPERCLIP CONTAINER Dear Heloise: I work in an office and kept my paper clips in a small container on my desk. My mom sews and has a circular dish with a magnet inside – her metal pins stick to it. I got the idea of using one for my paper clips. It works way better than the small container, and my clips are easier to retrieve. – Emily T., Austin, BEETLE BAILEY® by Greg & Mort Walker Texas REMEMBER THE DATE Dear Heloise: To keep canned goods rotating in my pantry, we always write the month and year of expiration on the top of the cans so that we will know which ones to use first.

The president reviewed a section on meetings from the Book of Beta Sigma Phi. Fils was in charge of the program. She first shared knowledge of “What our cats teach us.” Next, in keeping with this election year, she conducted a quiz on “Knowledge of U.S. Presidents” and another quiz on American history.

Members took part in discussing the answers. Prize winners were Loretta Kelly and McClure.

Members repeated the closing ritual and gathered around the refreshment table for a social time.

Bancroft History Assembly

Bancroft History Assembly met Sept. 19 at Greater Regional Medical Center D.V. Richardson room with six members and three life members present. JoAnn Nurnberg, president, called the meeting to order. The theme for the day was “Today is the first day of the rest of your life.” The pledge of allegiance was recited.

Roll call was answered by telling your first impression if you were the first white person to arrive in Iowa. Local theme for Bancroft History Assembly this year is “Early Iowa History.” Minutes from the May meeting were read and approved. Treasurer’s report was given and filed for audit.

The community project chosen for the coming year will be the Creston Area Food Pantry. The GFWC/ IOWA District Convention will be held in Creston Oct. 14 at Salem Lutheran Church. The three

“diseases of the past” with the modern equivalent.

Ruth McDowell gave the program on tracing family traits through use of a genogram. She focused on using research to make a family tree showing inherited diseases. She noted diagnoses have changed through the years, as have many other aspects of medicine.

McDowell served treats in observance of her birthday, and “Happy Birthday” was sung for her, Briley and Bernard Shea.

The next meeting is Oct. 24 at the library. Hull will give the program on “Hocus Pocus – the Salem Witches.”

Chapter LG P.E.O.

Chapter LG P.E.O. met Sept. 20 at the home of Alice Bowers. Twelve members responded to roll call.

Bev Templeton was introduced by Marcia Riley.

She brought us greetings from Chapter FN in Garner, her home, as well as from the executive board where she serves as state treasurer. She informed the club that P.E.O., inter-

nationally, has provided more than $283 million to 99,000 recipients to assist in their educational goals.

The 382 chapters in the state of Iowa have provided $1.4 million to assist women in reaching their educational goals.

Templeton shared their goal of receiving two new members from each of the chapters in Iowa. Regarding the Reach for the Stars scholarship program, she shared if each of the chapters in Iowa contributed $20.17 to this project, the endowment would be self-sustaining. She also pointed out the International Convention of P.E.O. will be held in Des Moines in 2019. The theme for this convention will be “Welcome Home,” since Iowa is the birthplace of this organization.

The procedure for a P.E.O. meeting and the ceremony for a new member, Ellen Rinner, was performed for the visiting officer.

The next regular meeting will be 1 p.m. Oct. 4 at the home of Sandra Harris with Annette Rice serving as co-hostess.

Bevins ending career as Bearcat legend

By ISAIAH SWANN Northwest Missourian Sports Editor

MARYVILLE, Mo. — The legendary toughness of Northwest Missouri State senior Collin Bevins has been, and will continue to be, the hub of the Bearcat defense.

The Creston High School graduate has generated excitement noteworthy to NFL scouts across the country.

The defensive end’s gritty attitude and tenacious pursuit was established in a small town of less than 8,000 where his athletic career ended with not a football, but a wrestling state championship around his waist.

“I’ve been wrestling since I could walk,” Bevins said. “It’s kind of a religion around there. You live and breathe wrestling season in the winter.”

Since then, Bevins has been rewarded with national

titles as a Northwest Bearcat in 2013 and 2015.

Career marks Bevins is in a class of his own. The senior has placed himself among some of the greatest defensive players in Northwest Bearcat history. Those legends including Matt Longacre and Dave Tollefson. Statistically, Bevins joins these two Bearcat giants in career sacks.

With 2.5 tackles for loss in a 45-21 victory over Missouri Southern, Bevins became the program’s all-time leader in tackles for loss with 47.5.

In that game he had five total tackles and one quarterback sack.

While Longacre is ranked No. 1 on the sacks list, Bevins is hot on his trail climbing the chart at No. 3 and only 3.5 sacks separate them.

“Being mentioned in the same sentence is an honor to CNA file photo by LARRY PETERSON me,” Bevins said. “I still look Northwest Missouri State defensive end Collin Bevins of creston, right, has become the program’s career leader in tackles for losses.

Mustangs back at .500 with win vs. Maroons

By KALEB CARTER

CNA sports reporter kacarter@crestonnews.com

MURRAY — The visiting Diagonal Maroons got stronger every set in their road match at Murray Thursday but the Mustangs still emerged victorious in three sets.

Murray won each set, as Diagonal inched closer each time. Murray won the first set 25-13, second 25-18 and third 25-22.

“We’re starting to hit the ball a

lot better than we had earlier in the season,” Murray coach Jerry Shields said. “We were doing a lot of pushing the ball over, bumping the ball over. But now... our passing has got a little bit better, although tonight it was a bit suspect.”

Murray took an 11-9 lead in the first set and went on a stretch where it played some of its best volleyball of the night and scored 11 of the next 13 points to go up 21-11.

Panther harriers take advantage of ideal conditions ■

NV’s Weinheimer wins girls race, Wolverine boys second as team

PERRY — Conditions and the course at Perry Golf & Country Club lent itself to terrific times for the Creston girls and boys cross country teams at Thursday’s Leon Fox Invitational.

Every Creston runner that stepped on the course, from middle school through varsity, ran their seasons-best times.

“The weather was conducive for an outstanding day of cross country, plus that along with the course, it was nice to see the times we turned in,” said Creston coach Pat Schlapia.

“We can’t argue with the improvement we made, even from the Orient-Macksburg meet. Everybody got a pr (personal record) for the season.”

“We’re proud of the way every-

body ran.”

Several athletes took a considerable amount of time off their previous season’s best. On the girls side, Allivea Skarda ran Skarda her best time by one minute, 47 seconds, finishing in 22 minutes, 52 seconds. Sydney Pantini, on the JV girls race, improve by 2:02 to finish in 26:29. Emma Ber- Fry ning ran 1:57 better than her previous best in the JV girls race to finish in 26:50. On the

boys side in the varsity race, Hunter Fry ran his best time by 1:34, finishing in 20:43, while Dawson Smith, on the JV side, ran his best time by 1:36 to finish in 22:26.

Everyone improved their times from Monday’s meet at Orient-Macksburg.

“It was nice to see coming off Orient,” Schlapia said. “We challenged the team to refocus and step it up for the upcoming meets.”

The Panthers are starting to head into the homestretch of the schedule.

“With the calendar turning to October, we need to step up our game,” Schlapia said. “The kids did step it up. It was great. Their enthusiasm and focus was really nice seeing how the girls and boys varsity and JV were pulling for each other, along

with the middle school.”

Baker leads girls, Skarda closes gap Leading the varsity girls was Brielle Baker with a fifth-place finish.

Her time of 20 minutes, 32 seconds was easily her best time of the season, by 39 seconds.

Baker contended with the top pack, which included Nodaway Valley’s Reagan Weinheimer, Dallas Center-Grimes’ Sydney Smith and Lexi Smith and Ballard’s Ellie Twedt and Lauren Matthews.

At one point, Baker was in second.

“That was nice for her to get out of her comfort zone,” Schlapia said.

“She went out there and challenged them.”

Graduated Creston Panther student-athletes were recognized as scholar-athletes at last Friday’s homecoming football game against Atlantic. Honored were 14 athletes who met three requirements throughout their varsity careers.

Those requirements were a 3.2 cumulative G.P.A., seven varsity letters, and participation in three different sports. In the front row are, from left to right: Jessica Beatty, Alyssa Higgins, Taylor Briley, Jami Sickels, Caitlin McIlravy and Shelby Palser. In the back row are Alli Thomsen, Jenna Taylor, Chris Foster, Seth Maitlen and Cooper McDermott. Not pictures are Camryn Somers, Madison Hance and Nick Walsh.

Clearly unhappy, Diagonal coach Mallory Grandfield called a timeout and encouraged her team to get things together and told them to huddle together on the court and find a solution rather than come to the bench.

The effects of that decision seemed to come out in the next set. The Maroons

up to (Longacre) and watch film of him every day. It’s special to me.”

In 2005 Tollefson, a twotime super bowl champion with the the New York Giants, broke the single season sack record at Northwest.

Snatching the title away was Longacre, who set it in 2013.

In 2015 Bevins surpassed them both, etching his name at the top of the list with 15.5 sacks.

Bevin’s name is listed multiple times throughout the Northwest record books, including tackles for loss (47.5) and sacks (27). In 2015 Bevins set a single season record in tackles for loss with 26.5, breaking a record set by Charlie White in 1981.

The Little All-American first-team selection has taken his game to a whole new level. A level at which some players will never reach.

“He’s calling his own games,” head coach Adam Dorrel said.

Piloting the defensive line has been something Bevins prides himself in. The veteran now must usher in the new era of Bearcat defensive lineman. One of the critical lessons Bevins learned is to come out of the gates hungry.

“We like to put pressure on teams early,” Bevins said.

“It will make it a lot easier for us to come out, do what we do and fly around out there.”

Successful transition The second team All-American was not always a Northwest Bearcat.

His first career of college athletics began as a redshirt freshman at Iowa State.

grabbed an 8-6 lead, and battled for much of the set before succumbing to another loss.

Kasydi Klommhaus was one of Diagonal’s five seniors to take charge for the Maroons vocally and with her play. Klommhaus showcased her arsenal of kills, spins and court vision to find space among the Mustangs.

“That was definitely a scrappy game,” Grandfield said. “They were on the floor and Allison (Norris) was taking some hard swings

and Kasydi (Klommhaus) did really good getting some blocks for us, slowing them down.”

Kayla Siefkas and Breianna Klein led the Mustangs toward the end of the second set.

“Our middle hitters have come a long way,” Shields said. “We had Zoie (Lecy) in the middle to begin with and we decided she was better on the outside. Kayla (Siefkas) does a good job in the front and Bre (Klein) does a good job all the way around. For a

Not feeling at home, Bevins transferred in hopes to follow in the footsteps of his family.

“Collin has a long history here,” Dorrel said. “His mother and father went to school here. He had also come to football camp a few years here. He had a lot of really close friends on our team.”

Bevin’s cousin, Carson Klocko, played for the team upon the freshman’s arrival.

Bevin’s father was a graduate assistant at Northwest while his mother played volleyball.

A former Division l athlete, he is not the first to be exposed to the caliber of program Northwest has built over the last two decades.

“Guys that have dropped down are always like, ’yeesh, you guys got some good players,’ and I say, ‘yeah we do, we do have some good players running around here,’” Dorrel said. “I think in 2013

that was an eye opening experience for him, as far as the expectation of what Rich (Wright, Assistant coach-defensive coordinator) wants.”

The experience Bevins has went through was life changing. Everything was new and the transferred freshman didn’t know what to expect coming in.

“Quite honestly, no one cares where you came from,” Dorrel said. “No one cares if you’re from a Division I school, I don’t care. That means nothing now, so you want to see those kids come in here and acclimate.”

It was hard at first, but four years later, the veteran has made refuge in Maryville and cemented his name as one of the greatest defensive players in Northwest history.

The No. 1-ranked Bearcats (4-0) take on No. 22-ranked Central Missouri (3-1) at 5 p.m. Saturday in Kansas City’s Arrowhead Stadium in the annual Fall Classic.

sophomore she’s really stepping it up this season.”

The Maroons fell behind 18-10 in the third set but rallied back due to the play of Norris and Klommhaus and the serving of Emily Newton. Diagonal pulled within one at 23-22 but out of a timeout, Murray two points to win the set and match.

UP NEXT — Murray (88), travels to Mount Ayr (23-1) for a match Monday.

Diagonal (4-7) will travel to Orient-Macksburg (2-9) Monday.

Weinheimer won in 19:50.

Sydney Smith was second in 20:05.

Baker continues to grow every meet.

“She’s running with some confidence,” Schlapia said.

“She proved she belongs with those group of girls.”

Allivea Skarda was the next Panther to cross the line, placing 27th.

Her time of 22:52 was impressive, Schlapia noted.

“That was her best race of the season,” Schlapia said.

Skarda was able to cut the gap between Baker and her teammates.

“We had a nice talk with the rest of the girls. We wanted to close that gap.

It had got up over three minutes. We want our twothrough-six girls to get that under three minutes. Allivea was able to get that to 2:20.

That was nice to see.”

Rachel Shepherd was 33rd and Lexie Little was 34th.

Brittany Linch was the fifth Creston runner across the line in 42nd the 89-girl field.

The Panthers finished fourth with 136 points. Ballard won with 35 points, with Dallas Center-Grimes taking second with 38 points.

Winterset was third with 107 points.

Creston was able to trim the gap on Winterset from previous meets.

“The last time we ran against Winterset, they had 50 points on us,” Schlapia said. “The girls not only ran as individuals, but as a team.

Cutting the gap down to 29 points shows a lot of promise right there. It was a fine individual and a fine team race by the varsity girls.”

Nodaway Valley boys place second, Irr leads Creston The boys team race featured two of the top teams regardless of class. Dallas Center-Grimes is second in Class 3A and Nodaway Valley is top-ranked in Class 1A. The Mustangs, thanks to all five runners placing in the top 12, topped the Wolverines 37-66.

Nodaway Valley had five in the top 19. Shane Breheny led the Wolverines with a sixth-place finish in 16:54.

Brycen Wallace was eighth in 17:12. Brayten Funke was 16th in 17:42. Skyler Rawlings was 17th in 17:48 and Tyler Breheny placing 19th in 17:52.

“That was tough as nails with that when you’ve got Dallas Center-Grimes as the number two team in 3A and Nodaway Valley as the num-

ber one team in 1A,” Schlapia said. “When you get up there at the state qualifying meet and the state meet, you throw the rankings out the window. But it does give you a measuring stick.”

Creston was led by Ben Irr’s 15th-place finish in 17:31.

Irr ran his seasons-best time by over a minute in claiming the last medal position.

“Ben being able to medal gives you an idea of what kind of competition he was up against,” Schlapia said.

Isaac Wignall was the next Panther across the line, placing 38th in 18:43. Wignall ran under 19 minutes for the first time this season.

“The same thing we’ve harped on with the girls we

did with the boys,” Schlapia said. “We wanted to close that gap. Isaac was within 45-50 seconds. That’s nice to see.”

Fry stepped up and was the Panthers third runner.

“Levi Hitz struggled a bit that last mile,” Schlapia said.

“Hunter being a freshman knows when you see a guy in front of you struggling you need to pick up the slack and move on up. Hunter did that.”

Creston tied with Perry for 10th. The Bluejays took 10th by virtue of the better sixth runner. Perry’s sixth runner placed 83rd, while Creston’s was 85th.

Schlapia’s young boys team picked up a valuable learning opportunity.

“That’s a lesson for us,”

Schlapia said. “Everybody’s important. We were right there, that close. It’s one of those things that no matter where you are on the team, you count the same.”

UP NEXT — Creston’s girls and boys varsity and JV teams are back on the course Thursday at Atlantic. The Atlantic Invitational will feature 28 teams.

Schlapia added that it is a possibly the Panthers will run that same course in Atlantic two weeks later for the state qualifying meet.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. ­— (AP) Minnesota Twins closer Brandon Kintzler was concentrating on Terrance Gore, the Kansas City Royals’ pinch-runner, not Paulo Orlando, the hitter.

After Salvador Perez’s pinch-hit RBI single with two outs in the ninth inning pulled the Royals within a run, Gore ran for him. With Orlando, who had four hits to match his career high, at bat, Kintzler picked Gore off first base to preserve the Twins’ 7-6 victory Thursday night.

Gore was initially called safe, but after a 1 minute, 15 second review, the call was reversed to end the game.

Kintzler made two throws to first baseman Kennys Vargas and the second one nabbed Gore.
