Congratulations to the Lena-Winslow Lady Panthers for a big Girls Volleyball Regional Finals win.

Eastland/Pearl City opens playoffs in blowout fashion

By Trenten Scheidegger REPORTER

The Undefeated Wildcats holding the three seed, hosted 14-seed in Chicago Harlan last Saturday.

EPC wasted no time getting on the scoreboard as Jarod Kempel took the opening kickoff to the house, giving them a 7-0 lead to start the game.

Following the kick return, the Wildcat Defense put points on the board with an Interception return for a touchdown as the Wildcats found themselves with an early 14-0 lead.

Chicago Harlan found themselves backed up near their own goal line on the following drive, and a holding penalty in their end zone led to a safety expanding the Wildcats lead to

The Lena-Winslow Panthers came into the playoffs with an 8-1 record and the fourth-seed as they hosted Lewistown who was 5-4 at the 13seed.

Junior Sean Ormiston and the Panthers wasted no time as a 43 yard scamper eventually lead to Ormiston’s fifteenth TD of the season with a five-yard plunge into the end zone.

Cade Benson followed up with the two-point conversion, giving Le-Win an early 8-0 lead.

A 59-yard touchdown run, followed by a Hudson Humphrey interception led way for another Ormiston touchdown run, giving the Panthers a large 32-0 lead in just the first quarter.

The Panthers Defense put some points on the board, with a safety to start the second quarter. After the free kick, QB Cade Benson found Isaiah Bruch in the end zone for a 47-yard touchdown pass, putting the game nearly out of reach at 42-0. The Benson to Bruch connection stayed hot, as their next drive featured a 75-yard connection giving the Panthers a 50 to nothing lead before halftime.

A Chicago-Harlem fumble would make way for a Cade Benson touchdown run for a 56-0 lead.

Lewistown was able to get on the board late in the half with a touchdown run of their own. The 56-6 lead would enable the running clock for the entirety of the second half.

Freshman Ethan Frye found his way into the end zone early in the second half, putting the Panthers up by 58 points. Lewistown would manage to score again late in the third, but Le-Win would take advantage of the running clock the rest of the way.

The Panthers managed to run out the clock on their 64-14 victory, allowing them to move on to the next round. Lena-Winslow will host the fifth-seed Chicago Orr for round 2.

16-0 with 10 minutes still remaining in the first quarter.

A nine-yard Harlan touchdown pass followed by a failed two-point conversion would shorten the deficit to 16-6.

EPC took little time to expand their lead once again with back to back rushing touchdowns, one from Jaydon Kempel gave the Wildcats a 30-6 lead with 7:27 left in the second.

Yet another Collyn Kabursky in-

terception made way for a spectacular catch from Travis Spong, putting the Wildcats in scoring position once again. Braedon Heeren capitalized on the opportunity with a two-yard touchdown run, giving the Wildcats a 37-6 lead.

After forcing a turnover on downs Jaydon Kempel bursted his way through the line for a 46-yard touchdown as the Wildcats were well on their way to a round one victory.

Chicago Harlan fumbled the ensuing kickoff, leading to yet another Kempel touchdown run putting the Wildcats up 51-6. Kempel finished the day with 120 yards rushing.

The second half featured a running clock and mostly backups from the Wildcats as they looked to remain healthy heading in to round two when they face 11-seed Chicago Christian, with a final score of 58-26 EPC would do just that.

Students were able to uncover skulls, leg bones, jaw bones (some even had teeth), vertebrae, and many ribs.

The not so skinny cook We are getting ready to celebrate the first of what I call the last holidays of 2018—Halloween. Kids are getting excited about what they are going to be, and adults are buying candy for the treaters. I finally got the candy; hopefully the rain they are calling for will not be coming down.

I love to see their costumes without a raincoat. I look forward to this first of the last holidays. This week there are several interesting recipes. Some you could save for Thanksgiving.

The first recipe is for an interesting green salad which features celery. You use sliced celery and the celery leaves. The dressing is a creamy one. I like celery, so this salad appeals to me. I suppose you could substitute another green for the endive if you don’t have any or can’t get it.

1 lb. ground beef 1 small green pepper, chopped 1 medium onion, finely chopped 3 garlic cloves, minced ½ C. beef broth 1 can (14 ½ oz.) diced tomatoes ¼ C. tomato past ¼ t. salt 1/8 t. pepper 1 pkg. (11 ¼ oz.) frozen garlic Texas toast 8 slices mozzarella cheese Preheat the oven to 425. In a skillet, cook and crumble beef with green pepper, onion, and garlic over medium-high heat until no longer pink; drain. Add broth. Bring to a boil and reduce beef by half, about 2 minutes.

Stir in tomatoes, tomato paste, salt, pepper and return to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until the mixture is thickened, stirring occasionally.

Place Texas toast on a foil-lined baking sheet; bake until lightly browned, 8-10 minutes. Top with beef mixture, then cheese and bake until cheese is melted.

I love the spinach artichoke appetizer, so when this combo was featured with chicken I figured it to be a good tasting way to make chicken breasts. It has a nice sauce made with the extra spinach and artichoke mixture.

salt and pepper with a mixer at medium speed until well combined. Reserve half of spinach artichoke mixture. Stuff remaining mixture into each pocket, securing with wooden picks.

In a large ovenproof saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned, about 8 minutes. Turn chicken and carefully transfer the pan to the oven.

Bake until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest portion registers 165, about 10 minutes. Remove chicken from pan and keep warm.

Add milk to pan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Stir in reserved spinach artichoke mixture until combined. Return chicken to pan until ready to serve.

These muffins have an extra treat in them. Pumpkin is great this time of year, and instead of pumpkin bread, this use of pumpkin in muffins is a great treat. You can save this recipe for Thanksgiving.

cup sugar. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, pumpkin, sour cream, butter and 3 tablespoons of preserves. Stir into flour mixture just until moistened.

Fill paper lined muffin cups half full with batter. Add a portion of cream cheese and ¾ t. preserves to each; cover with remaining batter.

Sprinkle with almonds and rest of sugar.

Bake until top springs bake when touched, 20-25 minutes. Refrigerate any leftovers.

Berger cookies are well known on the East Coast. A German immigrant, Henry Berger, came to Baltimore, Maryland in the 1800’s. He opened a bakery that would produce these famous cookies. The Berger Cookie is still available today. If you want an original, you can order one (or more) online. Enjoy these deliciously sweet and decadent cookies.

Some people would like them with coffee; I am a milk girl myself!
