Regulators to decide if pipeline construction can begin Iowa Sierra Club requests judicial review of IUB order

By Mike Mendenhall Newton Daily News

Jacobs

DES MOINES —The Iowa Utilities Board will likely vote on an order early next week allowing Dakota Access, LLC to start construction on the 346-mile Iowa segment of a 1,164-mile crude oil pipeline

Wagner

stretching from North Dakota to Illinois.

IUB members Mark Wagner and Libby Jacobs said at the conclusion of a public hearing Wednesday they felt allowing construction to

begin on the Dakota Access Pipeline in areas not requiring a federal permit from the U.S. Army Corps or Engineers and on parcels where all necessary easements have been obtained, is consistent with the board’s prior rules on the project.

Dakota Access — a subsidiary of Texas-based Energy Transfer Partners — filed a request with the IUB in May asking the board to give the go-ahead for pipeline constructions in areas not considered “pre-construction notification” zones by the board’s March 10 approval of

the project. The Army Corp has not issued permits for the land and waterways it regulates, but has told the IUB permit for all but three parcels will be issued by June 16.

According to IUB spokesperson Don Tormey, the parcels still in question are crossing of the Big Sioux River, the Des Moines and Mississippi Rivers. The Iowa Department of Natural Resources also recently revoked a previously issued permit for affected areas of the Big Sioux River Wildlife Management Area after reports from the site indicate a Sioux Indian burial ground,

Following Newton Farmers’ Market probation, back and bigger than ever sex offender back in jail

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News A man who received a probation sentence in April for sexually assaulting a 12-year-old Newton girl is back in jail after nude photos and pornographic images of minors were found on his phone.

Bradly J. Delk, 20, of Sioux City, was arrested on May 25 in Des Moines for proDelk bation violation following a report from the Judicial District Department of Correction Services.

In the report, officers detailed a home visit with Delk on May 10, in which they found more than 30 nude images of a 16-year-old girl on a memory card in his phone.

The card also contained multiple images of pornography and videos of sexual acts.

During an earlier search of Delk’s phone, officers found that he had accessed the internet and viewed pornographic sites. The phone was confiscated and returned to Delk’s mother, notifying her of what was on the phone and asking the material get erased. The report states Delk then manipulated his mother into letting him get the memory card containing the images.

The material found on Delk’s phone violated his three-year probation agreement handed down

by District Court Judge Gregory A. Hulse in April. Hulse said at the sentencing he considered Delk’s age at the time of the offense, lack of prior record, employment and family circumstances is determining the probation sentence.

Delk was originally charged with third-degree sexual abuse in August 2014 following a sexual assault accusation by a 12-year-old girl in September 2013. In a victim impact statement read to the court the victim stated she suffered from depression and felt her innocence had been taken away at age 12, “all because he couldn’t take ‘no’ for an answer.”

Delk is currently being held at the Jasper County Jail without bond. His initial court appearance is scheduled for June 20. Charges are pending in Polk County.

Newton Public Works Director Keith Laube is running for Jasper County Supervisor on the November ballot as a Libertarian, he announced Thursday morning.

“I think the county can really use someone with my expertise and experience to help run the government more efficiently. I’m Laube really a proponent that we can find efficiencies to help reduce taxes,” Laube said.

Laube has worked as director of public works since 2009. Prior to his position with Newton, he worked for 20 years in the private sector, a portion of which was at a small business he started and operated.

“My private business experience and government experience are valuable assets I can bring to the board of supervisors,” Laube said.

One issue Laube is focused on is providing public health services to Jasper County residents, he said.

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News Carve out more time to purchase your fresh produce and baked goods because the Newton Farmers’ Market is growing.

Beginning Tuesday, 19 full-time vendors and two part-time vendors will have their goods for sale from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. on the northwest corner of the Jasper County Courthouse lawn.

“We are seeing excitement from vendors throughout the region about the Newton market,” Newton Main Street Executive Director Andrew Bassman said. “More vendors and more products and more activities should lead to a better customer experience and ultimately more customers. And we think the market has the potential to continue to grow into the future.”

Annual Jasper County Relay for Life is Saturday

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News New day and time, but same great Relay for Life.

“Paint Your World Purple,” the 2016 theme for the Jasper County Relay for Life will start at 3 p.m. on Saturday at H.A. Lynn Stadium, a change from previous years when the event was held on Friday.

An event for the whole family, Relay for Life is a time for the community to gain motivation and inspiration from cancer survivors and support those fighting the disease through an activity packed evening.

“In previous years, it start-

ed off right after work on Friday. We are hoping to give people a better opportunity to make it there on time and enjoy more of the events and not rush right after work,” event organizer Jeff Price said.

The night kicks off at 3 p.m. with registration for the survivors walk, located at the main west entrance. Also at that time, bounce houses will open up, snow cones and cotton candy will be available and teams will begin their walks around the track. From 4 to 7 p.m., Hy-Vee Grill will be serving food for a suggested donation and Culver’s custard will be served at 7 p.m..

At 5 p.m., relay events start with a welcome from emcee Marshall Critchfield, an invocation, the singing of the national anthem by Mackenzie Quick and the flag raising.

At that time, the Survivors Walk will begin — this year being led by the Jasper County Sheriff Department’s emergency responders. Cheered on by the other participants and community members, the Survivors Walk lets all cancer survivors at the event celebrate their victory over the disease.

Following the walk, at 5:15 p.m. the 2016 teams and major sponsors will be introduced. The money raised

by teams and sponsors helps support American Cancer Society programs in research, education, advocacy and patient and family support both locally and statewide.

New this year, several local dance and tumbling teams will perform throughout the evening beginning with Prairie Fire Tumbling from 6 to 6:30 p.m. In-Motion dancers will take the stage from 7 to 7:30 p.m., and the Newton Pacesetters will perform a dance in honor of cancer victims and survivors at 8:45 p.m.

“I would concur that if there are parcels where all permissions have been granted, they have voluntary easements, all the permits from the other governmental entities are in hand, then I think it fits the spirit of the March 10 order,” Jacobs said. “I do take comfort in the fact that the PCNs would be completed, except for those three parcels

by June 16.”

5 Simple Steps to Power up Your Summer Salads

By Jenny Thompson, RD, LD, CDE Newton Hy-Vee It’s a great time to give your salads a powerful boost by choosing nutrient-rich ingredients. Salads don’t have to be boring, tasteless diet foods.

With the right base, toppings and dressing they can be main-dish stars or sides your friends and family will go crazy over.

1. Choose a powerhouse green for the base.

Kale and spinach are two great options, offering up loads of vitamins and minerals. However, if you prefer milder lettuces like romaine and iceberg, give butter lettuce a try. It is loaded with vitamins and minerals and offers sweet tender leaves that need very little dressing to be enjoyed. Butter, Bibb and Boston are all part of the Butterhead variety and can be used interchangeably. Keep in mind that some salads don’t include leafy greens at all.

2. Go for color. The pigments that make mangos orange and blueberries blue are actually powerful antioxidants that help protect the body from disease and damage. A colorful salad will provide a wide variety of nutrition; and it will be more appealing to the eyes. Mangos, which are the dietitian pick for the month of May, contain more than 20 vitamins and minerals, making them a great addition to any salad.

3. Power up with lean protein. Emerging research supports protein timing. Consuming 25 to

30 grams of protein at each meal throughout the day can help with fullness and weight control. A three-ounce portion of fish, beef, chicken, pork or turkey will provide around 25 grams of filling protein. Canned albacore tuna is convenient, economical and an excellent source of omega-3 fats.

High-protein vegetarian options include cottage cheese, edamame, eggs, beans and lentils. Keep in mind that while nuts offer a great source of hearthealthy fat, a serving only offers four to seven grams of protein.

4. Add a healthy crunch. Instead of croutons and bacon bits, opt for nuts and seeds. What nuts lack in protein, they make up for in nutrition.

Pumpkin seeds (pepitas) and almonds are top food sources for magnesium, a mineral many people are deficient in. Magnesium plays a key role in healthy bones, sleep and metabolism. Nuts contain omega-3 fats for heart health, fiber for fullness and potassium for lowering blood pressure.

5. Dress for success. Your dressing can make or break your salad when it comes to the final calorie count. Salad dressings can range from 25 to 240 calories per two-tablespoon serving. Bolthouse Farms dressings taste great, and are all under 45 calories per serving. For a simple homemade vinaigrette, mix two parts flavored vinegar with one part olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. While many culinary sources recommend a higher ration of oil-to-vinegar, the ratio above will significantly reduce calories, while maintaining flavor.

TRX-Treme Mondays and Wednesdays — 6:20 to 7:05 p.m.

The name says it all. Individuals will use elevated TRX straps to perform limitless number of movements. Workouts will vary from class to class and might integrate different aspects of H.I.I.T. training and circuits by using suspension trainers as well as dumbbells, bands and balls.

www.newtondailynews.com | Thursday | June 2, 2016 | 3A Local & State News First Newton National Bank to change name to FNNB

rency (OCC), in Washington D.C. Going forward, the bank will be regulated by the Iowa Department of Banking, located in Des Moines. This transition to a state-chartered institution will not change any of the functions of the bank; the bank will still be operated as a full service financial institution offering all of the existing products. The transition

could in fact allow the bank to expand its services from what it’s able to offer as a national bank.

What does this mean to customers? Customers should see no change in the functionality of the bank. Ownership of FNNB will be the same as it was previously. The bank will have the same exceptional staff in place to serve the customers as it has previously, said Rob Kahn, executive vice president.

“We’re trying to make this as much of a seamless transition on our customers as possible. Local decision making

from local management will still be a staple of the bank’s functionality,” Kahn said.

“Bank customers do not need to worry about account numbers changing, debit cards changing, or routing numbers changing — the only difference will be once you are out of checks or your debit card has expired it will simply say ‘FNNB Bank’ instead of First Newton National Bank.”

The Bank’s FDIC Insurance coverage for its account holders will remain the same as it is currently, he said. Bank ownership and management feel this will better align the bank

for current and future community banking needs.

“This transition is happening around the state of Iowa with other community banks as well, and we feel this will continue to allow us to service our customers to the standard we always have,” Bank President Gary Kahn said. “FNNB will still be Newton’s only locally owned and operated bank. That has not changed nor has the commitment to our valued customers.”

Find out more information on the bank’s website at www. firstnnb.com or by calling 641-792-3010.

tratively we have jurisdiction any more.”

Wagner disagreed with Huser and does not see it as a change in past board orders on pipeline construction.

“I don’t view this as a change in our order. It’s simply defining what our intent was,” Wagner said. “Our intent was to make sure the bodies for which we do not have jurisdiction or enforcement —Army Corps of Engineers, DNR — that they were following through with what they need to do to ensure Dakota Access was held to the requirements by those entities.

I think that’s as far as we can go.

I think that Dakota Access has substantially met that.”

Before returning to closed

session Wednesday, board staff told IUB members it could have a draft order ready for board review by the end of the week. At that point the board can either sign the order or return to open session to discuss its final decision.

In a statement following Wednesday’s deliberations, Dakota Access spokesperson Lisa Dillnger said the company will begin construction of the pipeline in allowed areas “immediately upon receiving the signed order” form IUB. Records from IUB show that Dakota Access is still missing easements for 14 parcels in Jasper County on land managed

by Jasper County Conservation, the Iowa Interstate Rail-

road and retained by private landowners. At Wednesday’s hearing, board staff indicated the pipeline company is still requesting eminent domain for 168 parcels in Iowa and 65 sites are considered PCNs. Following Wednesday’s meeting, the Iowa chapter of Sierra Club issued a statement announcing a petition the environmental group has filed in Polk County District Court, asking for a judicial review challenging the IUB’s decision to issue a permit for the DAPL. Sierra Club believes the project does not meet requirements of pubic convenience outlined in Iowa Code, and the court complaint claims IUB did not follow popper due process

by not allowing full cross examination of witnesses or consider the environmental impacts of the underground pipeline, which has the capacity to transport 540,000 barrels of crude oil per day.

“The Utilities Board found that the pipeline will promote public convenience and necessity, in spite of all of the evidence to the contrary,” Iowa Sierra Club attorney Wally Taylor said. “The pipeline does not serve the people of Iowa, and its devastating impacts on the environment and landowners was not properly taken into account by the Board.”

Newton Daily News First Newton National Bank has announced effective June 30, the bank will formally change its name and be known as FNNB Bank. Since the conception of the bank in 1882 there has been only two other name changes, the most recent being 1977.

This name change is necessary because the bank will now be a state-chartered institution and cannot have “national” in its legal name. Currently, the bank is nationally chartered and regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Cur-

Pipeline Continued from Page 1A IUB Chairwoman Geri Huser expressed reservations supporting such an order, concerned it would appear to be changing the original order set in March. Due to pending judicial reviews of the board order, she also said she was uncertain if further rulings on construction by IUB were still in the board’s jurisdiction.

“I have concerns that anything we do is a modification of that March 10 order,” she said. “I am concerned that if we make a change to an order that has litigation before a district court, I don’t believe adminis-

“The county health services were previously done

by Skiff Medical Center and paid for with county tax dollars. With the changes at Skiff, those responsibilities come back to county staff,” Laube said. “I want to help make sure that transition goes smoothly. I’ve sat on a county health board previously and am familiar with the things they do.”

Laube is also interested in looking at the short-term and long-term costs of benefits of county services, protecting property rights and not increasing county debt, he said.

Should he be elected to the supervisor position, obligations from the county would most likely effect his full-time status as a city employee. The exact nature of his employment would be determined following the election.

Laube previously ran for Iowa State Treasurer in the Libertarian Party in 2014.

Tuesday’s primary election will determine who will be on the ballot for the Democratic and Republican parties. John Deegan and Sandy Shaver are vying for the democratic nod while Doug Cupples and Mark Sutter are running for the Republican nominee.

Market Continued from Page 1A music and an assortment of other activities.

The only significant change to the market this year is the start time, which will be moved back by 30 minutes from its previous start time of 4 p.m. Bassman said the change was made to better align with the courthouse hours and to accommodate residents who commute or work until later in the day.

Newton Main Street took on the task of running the farmers’ market in 2015 and in the process moved the market back to downtown from its previous location at the Centre for Arts and Artists.

“The courthouse space served the market well last season. Last year, we grew to 13 full-time and nine part-time vendors,” Bassman said. “We had a great experience last year using the courthouse lawn. I think the market benefited from the visibility.”

Trending Mike Mendenhall

y dad cherished his service in the United States Marine Corps and, in many ways, it defines who he is.

When we moved out of our childhood home after 29 years, my brothers and I found memorabilia from his days stationed at Camp Pendleton, Calif. and in Okinawa, Japan while cleaning out a small corner of the basement. My parents had been divorced for nearly two decades and my dad had since remarried. But we still found little traces of him around the house that we, and he, thought were lost in time — and the mold of a 1999 washing machine hose explosion.

In the dusty concrete nook we found an M16 rifle clip, his dog tags, rucksack and a faded yellow photo of him pos-

ing in an grassy field — presumably in Japan — in Marine fatigues. When we returned the items to dad, he shed a few tears. The gear and photograph had taken him right back to his days as a Marine.

He served post-Vietnam in the late 1970s to early 1980s. He served during peacetime, but regardless how, where or when a veteran served they need to be honored.

He also served in the Iowa Army National Guard in the late 1980s through the early 1990s. During Operation Desert Storm he was deployed to Germany as support, repairing shot up and busted Jeeps and Humvees. Since I can remember, Dad has told the same stories of his military days over and over again, each time telling it like it was the first time.

Everyone in the family could recite those stories word for word. And although we lovingly role our eyes when we hear about leaving his friend in Tijuana without an ID following weekend leave and having to bail him out later, or the one about nearly having to mount out during the Iranian hostage crisis, we listen every time. He tells the tales with such energy and joy, how could we deny him?

My grandfathers remembered their service in very different ways. Grandpa Mendenhall and Grandpa Chelleen were both drafted into the army during the Korean War. Grandpa Mendenhall was a combat engineer, sent to the Korean peninsula to build roads after the infantry cleared an area. Combat engineers also helped build basic infrastructure for South Korea. He rarely speaks of his service unless asked.

He remembered his time in-country as miserable. He remembers the freezing temperatures, poor conditions in

the field and the pain of leaving his new bride back in the states. But regardless of the conditions, the Sgt. First Class still sees the war as something the U.S. had to do and takes quiet pride in his service.

Grandpa Chelleen also was fairly mum about his service. He was stationed in Germany during the war. He earned the rank of Corporal, and the consummate coach only spoke about playing baseball on the base — always with a grin. He was always honored to have served.

This Memorial Day, and every day, we should be thankful as a country and as citizens of Earth that our relatives, friends and neighbors who served, or who currently serve, defend our inalienable rights as humans. They have followed orders and their own hearts to preserve the freedoms of U.S. citizens and people around the world. Thank you to all our veterans.

Happy Memorial Day. Contact Mike Mendenhall mmendenhall@newtondailynews.com

Empty Nest Curt Swarm

Honeymoon in May?

Ginnie and I were married last October, which was a busy time, since we were both moving to our new farm house, so we postponed our honeymoon until May. Why May? It would be spring in England, we speculated, like two starstruck lovers who knew what they were doing. The flowers would be blooming and the weather nice. What we didn’t think about is that it would also be spring in Iowa and a very busy time. I found myself, on the day before we left for England, mowing and trying to slam in a garden. Fortunately, we had our neighbors to look after Buddy and take care of the farm.

There were 41 people from all over the world on our bus tour of England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland, otherwise known as the U.K. Each of the 41, like all people, had their own story. Here are just a few.

Jane is from Oregon. Her husband died in a helicopter crash twenty years ago. (I cried when she told me the story.) She’s been making the best she can of it ever since, by staying close to family and taking trips such as this to see the world. Her only regret is that she can’t share the experience with her husband, but she knows that he would want her to be enjoying herself until they can meet again.

Ian, our bus driver, is from England. Our travel director, Mike, said that a good bus driver is the key to a successful and enjoyable tour, keeping all on schedule and safely delivered. Mike was right. Ian took that behemoth Mercedes-Benz coach through narrow, hairpin turns, when most of us passengers just shut our eyes and prayed. More than once, he negotiated incredible, amazingly accurate, pin-point u-turns, in heavy traffic, like he was out for a morning stroll. English law requires that tour-bus drivers be relieved after seven days of driving. It was with regret that we said good bye to Ian as he left us to be with his wife, family, and enjoy a little holiday himself. We, eyed the replacement driver, David, with suspicion, but he turned out to be just as professional.

Johannes and Christina are from South Africa. They are business owners, operating a fruit-juice manufacturing company in Capetown. Because their business is seasonal, they only work four months out of the year, leaving ample time to travel the world. One thing they really appreciate about this trip is that it is safe to go for walks after dark, something they would never partake of in some other parts of the world.

Rudy and Mary are from Ft. Collins, Colorado, but Rudy (Rudolph) is originally from Belize. They met at the University of Arizona. Rudy went on to get his PhD in soil science from U.C. Berkeley. In their younger days, they traveled all the way from California to Belize in a VW beetle, with small kids in the back seat. They enjoy their travels more now from a tourist perspective, but still look after grandchildren, all of whom are in Colorado.

Austin Lee travels with his daughter, Anny, all over the world. They are both from Boston, but are originally from Taiwan. In Taiwan, Austin’s name was Lee Fong Sheng, Anny’s was Nien Chen Li. Austin has a PhD in Statistics, and Anny has degrees in medicine, epidemiology and mathematics. Daughter, Anny, drags Austin along, begrudgingly, while she power shops.

Mike, our travel director, is one of the most amazing people I have ever met. He’s young, has a red beard, and took care of us old folks like we were his parents.

He has a degree in marketing from Lancaster University, but you would think his degree is in history, as he can recite the history of England, Wales, the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland, and Scotland like a history professor, maybe better, since he is from York. He takes care of all the details of a guided tour, and there are a jillion of them—like arranging rooms at hotels so that we don’t have to stand in line at check-in, arranging tickets and tour guides at optional tours, and herding us along like geriatric cats who would rather take a nap than see another 12th-century castle. He is friendly, patient, articulate, and obviously a people person.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

Newton YMCA investing in kids, health, neighbors The Newton YMCA is a cause-driven organization that is for youth development, healthy living and social responsibility.

That’s because a strong community can only be achieved when we invest in our kids, our health and our neighbors. To that end, the Newton YMCA continues to invest financial and time resources into renovation projects and new equipment.

On the heels of numerous restoration projects made in 2015, the Y continues to move progressively forward in keeping our infrastructure, programs and services at the highest level. With a facility now 40 years old it is more important than ever we are good stewards of our financial gifts and endowments to ensure Y experiences are enjoyed by future generations to come.

A recent upgrade made at the Y included more than 50 new pieces of cardio and strength con-

From the CEO Frank Buckley ditioning equipment. The new equipment from Cybex and Precor is precision made to ensure the user the ultimate experience and benefit in muscle core and fitness conditioning.

Other new equipment installed at the Y includes new drinking fountains which offer bottle filling capability, additional changing stations and swim suit spinners in both adult locker rooms.

The bottle filling fountains makes it much easier for members to stay hydrated while eliminating wasteful plastic bottles. The convenience of changing stations in both adult locker rooms makes the Y truly a family experience, while the swim suit spinners help eliminate extra water on the

floors and for members to carry a much dryer swim suit in their workout bag.

In the months to come will be large scale projects such as the complete upgrade in our HVAC and control system, conversion of all exterior and interior lighting to energy efficient LED, and renovation of our lobby restrooms.

Consideration is being given to the future renovation of the entire aquatic area including new pool and deck tiling, sound insulation system, new timing board, and fresh paint.

To accomplish these type of improvements the Y needs generous donors such as Brad and Mary Manatt. This past December the Y was blessed by a caring gift of $5 million from the Manatts. Their gift along with other caring donations will be used solely for capital and infrastructure projects as well as provide sustainability for future generations.

YOUR VIEW

Don’t embarrass student athletes

I love sports and I love the Newton Daily News’ extensive coverage of local high school sporting events. It is nice when these student-athletes receive recognition for their efforts. However, I would encourage the NDN sports’ writers to keep the recognition positive.

I winced when I read Wednesday’s article about Newton’s base-

ball game with Marshalltown, as it recounted errors and strikeouts and miscues by individually-named Newton players. I do not have a son on the team, but I had two sons who played high school baseball, so I can assure you that I know how uncomfortable those players and their parents felt when they read the article.

Personal recognition for individual accomplishments is great but, in my view, there is no need to unnecessarily embarrass these kids for a mistake or miscue in a

high school sporting event. For purposes of the newspaper, errors and mistakes should be generic or attributed to the team. The article will read just as well; the players, parents, and even grandparents will appreciate it more; and the articles will end up where they belong — proudly displayed someday in a scrapbook. So please encourage our athletes through positive recognition of their efforts as well as their achievements.

Boyfriend with secret child isn’t worthy of woman’s trust DEAR ABBY: I have been seeing “Russell” for about a year. Last March he told me he had to move in with his grandmother because “he was the only bachelor in the family who could take care of her.”

Stupidly, I believed him.

Not long after that, I found out he had a pregnant girlfriend.

I didn’t let on that I knew, and we didn’t see each other for about three months because he was “busy getting promoted at work.” Now I have started seeing him again, and I just can’t seem to let it go.

The problem is I still haven’t told Russell I know about the girlfriend and the baby. I’m not sure how to go about letting him know I know what’s going on. I can’t bear the thought of him walking away from me again. How should I confront him? I’m in love, confused and heartbroken at the same time. — FOOL IN LOVE IN MIAMI DEAR F.I.L.: Try this — a full-frontal assault of plain honesty. Tell him you know he slept with another woman and got her pregnant, and that story he told you about his grandmother was pure guano. Tell him you know he has stayed away because he preferred to be with someone else.

Say that although you love him, you realize that as far as he’s concerned, you’re going cold turkey.

THEN DO IT. And if you haven’t already, see your OB/GYN and ask to be checked for STDs now that you know the “man” you’re in love with can’t be trusted. There’s an adage I’ll share because it applies to you: The truth will set you free.

DEAR ABBY: If your office or family has a $20 limit on gift exchanges, and you find a $20

gift on sale for $10, is that considered a $20 gift or a $10 one?

— PINCHING PENNIES IN OHIO DEAR PINCHING: Prices are so fluid during some of the holidays that no one really knows the true “value” of what’s being purchased anymore. If there is a $20 limit on what you’re supposed to spend, it means you shouldn’t spend any MORE than $20 — and not much less than $20. If you find something marked $20 and can get it for less, you are a wise shopper — not a piker.

P.S. You can also just buy a $20 gift card and avoid the uncertainty.

DEAR ABBY: If a single woman is having relations with a married man, then she is known as his mistress. But what do you call a single man who is having relations with a married woman? Would he be a “mister” — or what? — CURIOUS IN MACON, GA. DEAR CURIOUS: He could be referred to as her lover or paramour. According to the Urban Dictionary, he could also be called a “manstress.” (If there is financial support involved, then he’s a gigolo and she’s a “sugar mama.”)

Ash tree killer confirmed in 32nd county DECORAH— State officials say an invasive insect that kills ash trees has been discovered in southeast Iowa’s Louisa County.

The Iowa Department of Agriculture said Wednesday the presence of the emerald ash borer now has been confirmed in 32 Iowa counties. This is the third confirmed infestation in Iowa this year. The insects are native to Asia and were first spotted in the U.S. in 2002, when they showed up in the Detroit area. Authorities say the insects have spread to at least 25 other states.

Iowa regents sued over private Harreld meetings The Associated Press IOWA CITY — Members of the Board of Regents were accused in a lawsuit Wednesday of breaking the law by meeting privately with Bruce Harreld last summer before hiring him as University of Iowa president.

The lawsuit brought by retired university administrator Gerhild Krapf argues that Board President Bruce Rastetter and four others violated the Iowa Open Meetings Act “through a series of closed door meetings and other indirect methods” taken to avoid transparency. It asks a judge to void Harreld’s hiring, to award damages and attorneys’ fees and to enter an injunction warning regents they’ll

face civil contempt for future violations.

The board has argued the July 30 meetings didn’t violate the law because a majority of nine regents didn’t meet Harreld at once. Harreld has said he requested the meetings to learn more about the job, and Rastetter has called them appropriate.

It’s the second lawsuit alleging open meetings violations during the search to replace Sally Mason, a process that critics have called a sham that favored Harreld. The other, set for trial next year, alleges a search committee held improper closed meetings and violated the law by meeting near Chicago.

“If there was a conscious effort to circumvent the law,

“If there was a conscious effort to circumvent the law, then the public should know.”

then the public should know,” said Krapf, who retired last year as special assistant to the law school dean. “I think that the search was incredibly flawed. ... It was not only a waste of tax dollars, it was an insult and a black mark on this university.”

The American Association of University Professors will decide this month whether to sanction the university over the regents’ decision to hire Harreld, a former IBM exec-

Mussels to be removed from Iowa, Illinois bridge in July DAVENPORT (AP) — The first of an estimated half million mussels are expected to be relocated from the Mississippi River at the beginning of July as part of the Interstate 74 bridge project.

Divers will remove the mussels from the water and organize them before taking them to one of several new locations.

Planners hope to begin the relocation on July 5 since water levels are lower in the summer. The removal is expected to take about 60 days.

Builders are currently preparing to install 14 piers that will support the new span.

Most of the work to remove the mussels will be done close to the Illinois shoreline, but some will also take place on the Iowa side. The two states have set aside $5 million to remove the mussels, but an Iowa Department of Transportation official says it’s likely to cost $3 million to $3.5 million.

Mary Kay Solberg, a senior envi-

ronmental specialist with the transportation department, said the estimates are based on a 2014 survey of the area and that officials will have more specific number when they begin work.

“This is going to be one of the largest mussel relocations in U.S. history,” Solberg said.

The transportation department reviewed the potential impact of the bridge project on seven mussel species in a 151-page biological assessment finished last month. Three of those species — the Higgins eye pearlymussel, the Sheepnose mussel and the Spectaclecase mussel — are listed as endangered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. But only 2,400 of the 500,000 mussels expected to be relocated are one of those three species.

Mussels are valuable because they monitor and purify aquatic systems, feed on algae, plankton and silts, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

utive, despite overwhelming opposition. The regents rejected more traditional finalists — the provosts of Ohio State and Tulane and the Oberlin College president.

AAUP has alleged the search was orchestrated “to prevent any meaningful faculty role in the selection of the final candidate.”

The lawsuit targets Harreld’s meetings with regents Katie Mulholland, Milt Dakovich, Larry McKibben and

Mary Andringa on the day before the application deadline.

The four along with Rastetter are named as defendants. The meetings happened at the Ames office of Summit Agricultural Group, the business owned by Rastetter.

Rastetter, who had met with Harreld twice previously, helped coordinate the meetings and shared Harreld’s resume with others. But he has said he didn’t sit in on them.

Andringa later sent an email praising Harreld’s “great skill set, experience and passion for excellence” and urged him to seek the job. In the email Andringa wrote: “Crisis necessitates change — it may be the big challenge that can energize you in the next 5 years!”

Prosecutor files open records charges in Burlington shooting BURLINGTON (AP) — Three law enforcement agencies improperly withheld public records related to the death of a Burlington woman killed by a police officer, a prosecutor hired by the Iowa Public Information Board says.

Special prosecutor Mark McCormick charged the Burlington Police Department, Des Moines County Attorney Amy Beavers and the Division of Criminal Investigation with violating the open records law on Friday.

Burlington Officer Jesse Hill accidentally

shot 34-year-old Autumn Steele to death in January 2015 while responding to a fight between Steele and her husband. He tried to shoot the family’s growling dog but hit Steele in the chest instead.

Hill was not charged in the shooting and returned to duty.

Steele’s family and the newspaper requested copies of all public records related to the incident, including police audio, body camera footage, 911 recordings and investigative reports.

The agencies have

claimed they satisfied Iowa law by releasing a 12-second body camera video of the incident and that any records that are marked as “investigative reports” can lawfully be kept confidential.

Messages left for all three offices were not immediately returned Wednesday morning.

McCormick, who is also a former Iowa Supreme Court justice, alleged Beavers withheld documents she claimed she didn’t have and the police agencies improperly claimed that records are confidential.

Children’s asylum approvals vary by US region The Associated Press LOS ANGELES — For unaccompanied immigrant children seeking asylum in the U.S., where they apply seems to make a world of difference.

Youngsters whose applications are handled by the U.S. government’s regional offices in San Francisco and Los Angeles are far more likely to win approval from asylum officers than those applying in Chicago or Houston, according to data obtained by The Associated Press under a Freedom of Information Act request.

The figures offer a snapshot of how the government is handling the huge surge over the

past two years in the number of Central American children arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border unaccompanied by adults.

Tens of thousands of youngsters — many of them fleeing gang violence in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras — have overflowed U.S. shelters and further clogged the nation’s overwhelmed immigration courts.

Under federal law, these children can apply to remain in the country in a process that involves an interview with an asylum officer from one of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services’ eight regional offices. To win their cases, they must show that they have been persecuted or are in danger of persecution.

As of January, asylum officers had rendered decisions in the cases of nearly 5,800 such children who arrived since May 2014, according to the figures obtained by the AP. Overall, 37 percent were granted asylum, but the rate varied dramatically from 86 percent at the San Francisco office, which handles applications for a swath of the Pacific Northwest, to 15 percent in Chicago, which covers 15 states from Ohio to Idaho.

Los Angeles, which covers parts of California and Nevada, Arizona and Hawaii, granted asylum in 53 percent of its cases, while only 16 percent were approved by Houston, which

handles Texas, Colorado, New Mexico and other states. The asylum offices in New York; Miami; Newark, New Jersey; and Arlington, Virginia, had approval rates in the 20s and 30s.

Immigration lawyers said they expected some differences among regional offices, given that some parts of the country are more sympathetic toward immigrants. But they said there shouldn’t be such large disparities.

“The quality of justice should not be like a crapshoot. It shouldn’t be a lottery,” said Karen Musalo, director of the Center for Gender & Refugee Studies at the University of California, Hastings College of the Law. “It is

not just disappointing — it has life-or-death consequences for these children.”

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services had no explanation for the disparities. Asylum claims are evaluated on a caseby-case basis, and all children’s applications get an additional review by a supervisory officer, spokeswoman Claire Nicholson said.

Several members of the House Judiciary Committee blasted the disparities. Rep. Judy Chu, D-California, called for the committee to examine reasons behind what she called the “alarming” differences and youngsters’ abilities to access to lawyers in different places.

$550K gift supports further renovations to Central College’s Maytag Student Center Newton Daily News PELLA — Following a $3.125 million gift to Central College two years ago, the Fred Maytag Family Foundation has awarded Central an additional $550,000 for further renovations to the Maytag Student Center.

The grant also includes annual support for student scholarships through the Journey Scholarship Fund.

“Ken and Fritz Maytag have shown

tremendous commitment in creating opportunities for Central students,” said Central College President Mark Putnam. “We appreciate this warm relationship and nearly three decades of partnership.”

The gift makes additional renovations possible that were not included in recent updates to Maytag Student Center.

New changes include updating van Emmerik Studio technology, re-

freshing student development offices and restrooms, increasing energy efficiency with HVAC features and LED lighting, and replacing furniture, windows and skylights. Many of these features have remained untouched since the building opened more than 25 years ago. With the additional updates, however, Maytag’s upper level will match the first floor’s beauty and efficiency.

The Fred Maytag Family Founda-

tion helped fund the construction of Maytag Student Center in 1990, a $2.3 million project.

The building was named for Fred Maytag I — grandson of F.L. Maytag, who founded the Maytag Company in Newton in 1889 — in recognition of his service to Iowa as an entrepreneur and public servant. He was president of the company from 194062 and created the Fred Maytag Family Foundation.

Vernon names Supplier Account Manager of the Year Newton Daily News The Vernon Company awarded Rick Buckley, who represents Tri-Mountain, as Supplier Account Manager of the Year at the company’s National Sales Meeting held April 18-20 in Des Moines.

Vernon strives to recognize people who continually go above and beyond expectations. The company began honoring individual supplier representatives four outstanding service and dedication to Vernon and its account executives in 2014.

“Rick has been working with Vernon for many years and makes it a practice to

exceed expectations in helping our account executives,” said Vicki Palm, Director of Marketing for The Vernon Company. “They know they can reach out to him anytime for help with client projects, and he will deliver.”

“The Supplier Account Manager of the Year award means a lot to me because The Vernon Company is like family to me,” Buckley said. “The Vernon account executives and support staff are always nice and friendly to work with. Vernon is one of my top accounts, and it was an incredible honor.

I want to thank Vernon for the years of great business

Final hole drained Newton’s Reynolds claims sixth at 4A state golf meet

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News

AMES — Consistency is what people came to expect from Jessica Reynolds on the golf course.

The Newton High senior could have a couple of bad holes during a round, but always seemed to make adjustments to her game to land herself in a strong scoring position.

“She had a perfect drive, a perfect iron shot, a perfect chip and a perfect five-foot putt. That’s not a bad way to end it,” Newton head girls’ golf coach Scott Enyart said as he came away from the 18th green at Coldwater Links Wednesday afternoon.

Reynolds ended her fourth straight state tournament in perfect fashion according to her coach. She parred Coldwater Links’ 18th hole on four Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News strokes. She finished up her Newton High golf career with Newton senior Jessica Reynolds watches as her ball rolls toward the cup on Coldwater Links’ No. 18 green. She sank the five-foot putt — her final one of the day, the 4A state tournament and a strong round of 18 holes her high school career — Wednesday at the 2016 Iowa Class 4A Girls’ State Golf Tournament. She Wednesday, making adjustearned her third straight state medal in four state appearances.

ments during the day.

After carding an 87 in Tuesday’s first day at the 2016 Iowa Class 4A Girls’ State Golf Tournament, Reynolds was tied for sixth place. The top 10 individuals are awarded medals and she was striving for a third-straight top 10 finish at state.

“I came into today wanting to shoot one of my best scores because it was my last round of high school golf,” Reynolds said. “I had high expectations for myself, which I didn’t quite get to today. I felt I did the best I could, and the scores sort out themselves.”

Reynolds said before the final results were announced if she received a medal at the 2016 state tournament or not, she was happy to have the opportunity to play two more days of golf.

Finally the wait was over, Reynolds claimed the 2016 Class 4A sixth-place individual medal with a final total of 174.

Scoring in the rain, just scoring in the rain

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News It did not matter to Newton’s Cardinals that is was raining in the first half of Tuesday’s 2A Region 5 semifinal game on their home field.

They scored goals. Senior Victoria Jordan points to a teammate after her pass allowed Jordan to score.

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Newton High senior Hannah Rhoads (18) with teammates in two celebrate the first of many goals by the ninth-ranked Cardinals in a 10-0 rout of Carlisle Tuesday at home in 2A Region 5 semifinal action.

Plenty of blame to go around

I

t’s not too often I veer away from the world of sports. It’s not my way, and it’s not something I like to get too involved with.

But the most popular story of the past week involved a 3-year-old boy and a gorilla in a Cincinnati zoo.

To make a long story short, the 3-year-old boy fell 10 to 12 feet into a gorilla exhibit.

Zoo Director Thane Maynard said the zoo’s dangerous animal response team decided the boy was in “a life-threatening situation” and they needed to put down the 400-poundplus male gorilla named Harambe.

There was plenty of outrage from all angles.

Some blamed the young boy’s mother and father for not watching their child better. Those same people were not happy that the “lack of parenting” led to the death of the gorilla.

This & That Troy Hyde The animal lovers did not think Harambe needed to be put down.

I don’t know exactly what happened, and it will be hard for anyone to know the full story as many will tell their side but few will know the actual truth.

I have no problem with how the zoo handled the situation. I would like to think a child’s life is worth saving. But I understand the other side, too.

It wasn’t the gorilla’s fault the child got into its area.

As a parent, I would like to think this would never happen to my daughter. We hold her hand in most situations that could lead to trouble.

But the truth is, this could have happened to anyone. We are all human. As the mom, posted on social media — accidents do happen.

It’s unfortunate. The gorilla prob-

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Newton junior Ryanne Rausch controls the ball against Carlisle in the rain. Rausch scored five goals in the Cardinals regional semifinal victory Tuesday.

ably didn’t deserve to die, especially since clips of the video do show Harambe may have been protecting the kid.

I hope this can be a lesson for other parents. We can all make mistakes.

But we all can get better at our “jobs,” too.

In a world where electronic devices rule our lives, those habits also can be detrimental when it comes to our kids.

I will try my very best to give Aubrey my undivided attention when we are outside our home. This story definitely makes me think twice about things.

Back to sports — In the NBA, the championship series is about to get going.

I will be pulling for Cleveland. That city has suffered through several bad seasons in lots of different sports. They deserve a championship.

If anyone in the league right now can deliver that title, it’s LeBron James.

He pushed the Warriors to six games last year nearly by himself.

It’s going to be fun seeing how he

does this year when he has a healthy Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love to work with.

On the homefront — It’s officially summer in the Hyde household. The biggest sign for Aubrey and I is mom is home during the day.

Mom worked her final days as a special education teacher in the Urbandale School District. She’ll begin her time in an elementary school in Newton this fall.

Until then, we have a lot I want to do as a family.

We plan on enjoying plenty of activities at Newton Fest coming up next weekend.

I also want to check out the drivein movie theater some time. I imagine my daughter would enjoy that.

One thing I will take pride in is supporting local businesses.

I can’t wait to try out a pizza at Papa Georgio’s in Colfax.

Yes, on my list also is eating a gigantic tenderloin at Goldie’s.

MLB suspends Cleveland’s Marlon Byrd CLEVELAND (AP) — Cleveland Indians outfielder Marlon Byrd has been suspended 162 games for testing positive a second time for a performance-enhancing drug.

MLB officials said that Byrd tested positive for Ipamorelin, a growth hormone releasing peptide.

Byrd was suspended for 50 games in 2012 shortly after he was released by Boston.

Major League Baseball increased its penalty for a second offense in 2014 from 100 games to a full season.

Byrd’s lawyer Jay Reisinger said in a statement that the positive test resulted from a tainted supplement. He says Byrd won’t appeal the suspension.

Cardinal baseball lose to Eagles

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News Struggles at the plate continue to hamper Newton High’s baseball team.

The Cardinals had six hits Wednesday against Pella Christian, but did

not score until late in the game losing 6-2.

“We are starting to hit the ball better, but we still can’t string hits together in innings to produce runs,” Newton head coach Dustin Brisel said. “Tonight, we made

a couple of mistakes on defense against Pella Christian behind another strong pitching outing

by Connor Gholson.”

Gholson and Pella Christian’s Mac Sarver had a pithing duel going in the Little Hawkeye

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Newton High senior Grant Nook has a bead on the ball during an at bat this season.

The Cardinals’ offense has not got going yet and Newton dropped a 6-2 Little Hawkeye Conference decision to Pella Christian Wednesday at home.

Conference opener for both teams at Newton’s Eversman Field. Both pitchers went the distance on the mound.

The Cardinals and Eagles were scoreless through four innings.

Pella Christian scored four runs in the fifth inning. Newton cut the Eagles’ lead in half with two runs in the sixth.

Junior Brennen Dodd led off the sixth with a base hit and sophomore Garrett Sturtz walked.

Gholson reached on a fielder’s choice followed by a one-out RBI single to center field by senior Duncan Lee. Junior Trey Vanderlaan delivered an RBI base hit, but the Cardinals couldn’t keep it going.

“We had the tying runs on base with one out and couldn’t come up with a key hit. That’s how our season has gone so far,” Brisel said.

“Then we went quiet at the plate again in the seventh inning. We just have to get our hitting going. We’re getting good pitching and the boys are playing solid defense.”

With one gone in the top of the seventh, an error by Sturtz and shortstop helped the Eagles

produce two runs. They followed it up with a single, a fielder’s choice and two-run double by Scott Haveman.

The Eagles retired the Cardinals in order in their half of the seventh to end the game.

Gholson worked seven innings and took the loss for Newton. The junior allowed seven hits, walked one, hit one batter and struck out five.

Sarver went the distance for the Eagles (4-0, 1-0), giving up six hits, walking two and striking out five for the win.

Lee had a single and a double for Newton and Dodd hit two singles.

Vanderlaan and junior Tyler Stanton each had a single.

Newton is 0-3 overall and 0-1 in conference play. On Thursday, they play at 7 p.m. against preseason Class 4A topranked Southeast Polk at Pleasant Hill.

NHS softball rallies past PC in LHC opener

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News A third game with a seventh-inning rally turned out just like their first one this season.

Newton High’s Cardinal girls came all the way back to win at home Wednesday.

The Cardinals had built a 4-0 lead against visiting Pella Christian’s Eagles in Wednesday’s Little Hawkeye Conference opener. The Eagles broke through to score three runs in the sixth and three more in the top of the seventh, taking a 6-4 lead.

Aubrey Lucas, Newton’s sophomore third baseman, delivered a walk-off, two-run double to push the Cardinals to a 7-6 victory. It was their third one-run game in a row, winning two of the three in walk-

Ryan’s double brought in two runs.

The Cardinals handed the Eagles their first loss of the season. Newton improved to 3-1 overall and 1-0 in LHC play while Pella Christian is 2-1 and 0-1.

Lynnville-Sully squads notch SICL sweep against BGM

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News SULLY — A home-field sweep for Lynnville-Sully’s baseball and softball teams in South Iowa Cedar League play Wednesday.

The Hawk boys broke open a 3-1 game with an eight-run sixth on their way to upending Class 1A preseason ninth-ranked BGM Bears. Lynnville-Sully won 9-3 to go 4-2 overall and 3-1 in conference play.

Down 3-1 going into the bottom the sixth, the Hawk boys kept the line moving.

They scored eight runs to gain the lead then held the Bears scoreless in the seventh.

“The key to the game was a rock solid defense, and the ability to get the key hits in clutch situations,” Lynnville-Sully head coach Bob Scandridge said. “Tyler Van Zante had his best outing as a pitcher. Josh Dunsbergen did a good job coming in and finishing the game on the mound.”

Van Zante pitched five innings, allowing two runs on three hits and three walks and four strikeouts.

Dunsbergen came on in relief in the sixth, giving up one run on one hit and striking out two.

Elijah Collins led the offense with a single and a double. Ross Van Wyk had a three-run double. Van Zante and Carson Dunsbergen each connected for two base hits. Dylan Rozenboom singled.

Lynnville-Sully’s baseball team hosts Moravia in non-conference play Thursday and goes to HLV Friday for a SICL contest.

The Lynnville-Sully softball team used a five-run third to build a 6-0 lead, which was wiped out when the Bears plated six runs in

their half of the fourth inning. The Hawks answered by scoring four runs in the bottom of the fourth.

Scoring a run in the fifth put the Hawk girls up 11-6, and they added four more in the sixth. BGM got single runs across in the sixth and seventh innings.

Carson Fisk got the pitching win for Lynnville-Sully, working 4 1/3 innings. She allowed seven runs on six hits and one walk, and she strike out two.

Mallory Loftus pitched 1 2/3 scoreless innings, gave up two hits and struck one out. McKinley Conover was charged with one run on two hits in pitching the seventh

inning.

Kasiah Ehresman and Fisk each had three singles.

Shelby Foster hit two singles and had two RBIs. Hitting a single each were Jelissa Rozendaal, Haley James and Olivia Ritter.

Lynnnville-Sully’s softball team travels to HLV Friday then plays in Saturday’s Oskaloosa Invitational tournament.

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News COLLINS — The Collins-Maxwell/Baxter baseball team has made steady improvements since coach Max Seeman took over the program four years ago.

The Raiders won a total of three games from 2011-2013.

That number grew to eight wins in 2014 and CMB won 10 last year.

The 2016 season hasn’t been perfect, but after another rally against a Heart of Iowa Conference opponent Wednesday, the Raiders are a perfect 4-0.

Prairie City-Monroe took a 1-0 lead over Raider ace Brady Stover in the fourth inning, but the Raiders rallied for a fourth time this season.

Brady Kemp tied the game with an RBI double in the

sixth and then a bases-loaded RBI walk by Creighton Caple in the bottom of the seventh gave the Raiders a 2-1 walkoff victory.

“A lot of these guys have been playing for three or four years now so I think the experience keeps them calm and collected,” CMB coach Max Seeman said. “They don’t get too worried anymore when they get down early.”

CMB has been down at least 1-0 in all four games this season. That didn’t deter the team in anyway though.

Stover (2-0) struck out 14 Mustang hitters and earned the win after allowing three hits and two walks. The run PCM scored in the fourth was unearned following a throwing error.

“When they got ahead, I just knew I needed to keep

pitching,” said Stover, who fanned 17 in his first start of the season. “We have been down a bunch this year. I wasn’t worried. I wanted to keep my head in it. I knew we would rally at the end because we have that experience and really good chemistry.”

CMB did rally, but PCM played well enough to win.

Noah Henkenius started on the mound for PCM and allowed two earned runs in 6 1/3 innings pitched. He surrendered four hits, walked two and struck out two.

PCM coach Shaun Hudnut pulled Henkenius with one out in the seventh after CMB pinch runner Travis Lindemoen reached third base with one out.

Hudnut went to eighth-grader Derek Brown with the hopes of getting a few

strikeouts. CMB hitters managed to walk four times in the frame, and that led to the winning run.

“I was proud of the effort of the guys tonight,” Hudnut said. “It speaks volumes to even put Derek in that spot as an eighth-grader. He’s one of our bigger strikeout guys.

I have all the confidence in Derek in that spot, and I wouldn’t hesitate to put him in that spot again.

“There were some calls that could have gone either way.

That’s the way it goes.”

Lindemoen was nearly picked off third base before Caple got the RBI walk to end it. The call went in favor of CMB. Caple just wanted to find a way to get the runner home.

CMB softball stays unbeaten, defeats PCM

COLLINS — Junior Abbey Kahler started a sixth-inning rally with a solo home run, and then junior Veronica Condon completed the comeback with a bases-loaded, two-run single as the Collins-Maxwell/Baxter softball team rallied for a 4-2 win over Prairie City-Monroe on Wednesday.

The Mustangs led 2-0 through five innings thanks to a 2-run home run by junior Katie Vande Wall. Junior Jayci Vos also had two hits for the Mustangs, but PCM dropped to 1-3 on the season.

Kahler earned her third win of the season in the circle for CMB. She allowed four hits and struck out five while walking none.

Her first home run of the season went over the left-field fence.

Senior Payge Jurgens walked three times in the game.

Her third walk helped the Raiders rally late. Jurgens’ pinch runner, freshman Gracie Cheville, moved to second on a sacrifice bunt by junior Mikayla Eslinger. Freshman Hannah Caple and eighth-grader Holly Jes-

Rally: CMB’s Brady Stover wins pitching dual against PCM’s Noah Henkenius Continued from Page 1B “I figured he might be a little bit more antsy than I was because he was an eighth-grader,” Caple said. “I just had to get in the mindset to do whatever I had to do to get the runner in. I really worked in the offseason tracking pitches and working on my own strike zone.”

PCM senior Austin Brown took a one-out walk against Stover in the fourth. Senior Clay Cooper singled to put two runners on base. The runners moved up a base when a pickoff throw by Hunter McWhirter went into center field.

Brown sprinted home one batter later on a wild pitch by Stover.

“When you face a guy with the caliber of Stover, you have to be on your game,” Hudnut said. “You have to be able to get a few breaks here and there. We battled today. Unfortunately, we came up a little short.”

The Mustangs’ 1-0 lead held up until the sixth inning.

Stover started the frame with a single to deep left field. He stole second and then went to third on a Caple sacrifice bunt. Kemp’s RBI double tied it.

In the seventh, Aric Broderick started the rally with a walk. McWhirter moved

Reynolds Continued from Page 1B “This is my favorite sport, and it’s sad to think I won’t be back playing golf for Newton next year,” Reynolds said.

On the first day, Reynolds played the back nine at Coldwater first and had a 47 then rebounded with a 40 on the front nine for her 87. She had herself in position for that third state medal.

“I always start out nervous. I had a couple of bad shots on the first nine Tuesday. I felt more comfortable on my last nine holes. I had fun playing those,” Reynolds said.

For the final round of the 36-hole state tournament, Reynolds played the front nine first Wednesday. With a birdie on the par-3 No. 8 and a par on No. 9, Reynolds made the turn with a 44.

Reynolds said she had three bad holes on the back nine, but shot a 43

pinch runner Lindemoen to second on a sacrifice bunt.

Spencer Gauch walked and then Hudnut elected to put Stover on first with an intentional walk.

That loaded the bases for

for another 87.

“Consistency,” she said.

“It was a great feeling to finish the round the way I did. My last two holes I didn’t think about my score. I wanted to play my final two holes of my high school career well.”

Reynolds had a bogey, one over par, on No. 17 after one of those three bad holes at No. 16.

“Before I hit my tee shot on 18, I have this competitiveness in me which says ‘I’m going to hit it to my target no matter what,’” Reynolds said. “I try to do that on every shot, but don’t always do it. It was a great feeling when I struck the ball on the tee shot.”

She admitted when it came to her chip shot on No. 18, she was ready to hit it right away. Reynolds said she put her club back in her bag as she helped her group mates locate their balls in the rough to the left of the No. 18 green.

“I really just wanted

Caple, who took ball four on a 3-2 count.

“He is the guy you want up there to take those pitches,” Seeman said. “He has one of the best eyes of anyone we have. He got to two strikes,

to hit it on right then,” Reynolds said. “It was a great feeling when I made my last putt. I wanted to finish my final hole well, and I did.”

As a freshman, Reynolds went with the Newton team to the 4A state.

As a sophomore and junior, she led the Cardinal team to the 4A state tournament, as they finished third and fourth, respectively.

Individually, Reynolds claimed the eighth-place medal as a sophomore. A year ago she was third at the state meet.

Newton has sent a team to a state tournament 11 teams since the girls’ golf program began in 1967. The Cardinals went three straight years — 2013, 2014, 2015.

Reynolds is the first girl for Newton to play in four straight state tournaments. She is also the first to win three consecutive individual medals.

“It’s been a great four years. I’ve made a lot of

and I got nervous. He worked it to a full count. I am not sure if our guys moving on the pitch threw (Brown) off a bit, but Creighton has seen enough pitches, has enough confidence and was able to

take a close pitch.”

CMB ended a long losing streak against PCM last year when the Raiders won 3-2 in the teams’ only meeting.

The win Wednesday gave the Raiders their second straight win over the Mustangs.

“It’s a very huge win. That puts us at 4-0. I don’t know that last time CMB has been 4-0,” Stover said. “I think we are playing really well so far.”

Stover and Caple both singled and walked. Stover scored a run, while Caple had an RBI. Kemp’s RBI double was his lone hit and Gauch had the Raiders’ other hit and he walked, too.

Junior Noah Clark, freshman Brayton Van Dyke and Cooper all had one hit for PCM, which dropped to 3-2 on the season. Austin Brown walked and scored the Mustangs’ only run, and Ethan Thomas had a pinch-hit walk in the seventh.

PCM (3-2, 2-2) hosts North Polk at 7:30 p.m. Thursday and Pleasantville at 7:30 p.m.

The Mustangs play Albia at 1 p.m. Saturday in the Colfax-Mingo tournament.

great friends through the team and the sport,” Reynolds said. “We have an excellent coach in Coach Enyart. He stuck with us all through every thing you can think of.”

Reynolds said along with Enyart, she had John Shawver of Fore Seasons to thank for her success. She said Shawver has been her swing coach the past two years.

“John loves the game of golf and helps not just me but a lot of high school and younger kids with their game. He taught me what to do when things aren’t going well with my swing during a round,” Reynolds said.

Reynolds said she believes she becomes better on the course later in rounds, because Enyart and Shawver have helped her know how to adjust.

She said course conditions always change and you have to adapt your game to the course.

“I’ve been so blessed to have the opportunity to play in four state tournaments. I’m just happy to be here today,” Reynolds said as she reflected on her NHS career.

She helped the Cardinals win Little Hawkeye Conference championships and regional golf championships in the past three years. She earned All-LHC honors.

“I have to thank my parents and family.

They’ve supported me and helped me so much.

My dad and brothers have helped on my game,” Reynolds said. “But most of all, I thank God for the gift of being able to play golf, and the passion I have for the game.”

Washington sophomore Sarah Nacos won her second straight 4A individual title, finishing with s 154 (78-76).

Nacos led Washington to a second consecutive team championship.

Washington won with

a total of 715 with Fairfield, which won the 4A regional tournament hosted by Newton, in second with a 732.

Wahlert placed third at 736 and Pella was fourth at 755.

Fairfield senior Lindsey Repp took the second-place medal with a 163 followed by Wahlert senior Charlotte Flynn at 169.

Seniors Lauren Tandy of Vinton-Shellsburg and Deanna Peiffer of Washington tied for fourth at 170. Reynolds was sixth at 174.

Rounding out the top 10 were Grinnell sophomore Alisha Ford and Xavier senior Amy Olberding tied for seventh at 176, Pella senior Camille Henry in ninth at 180 and Western Dubuque senior Lauren Prier in 10th at 181.
