Field of dreams

Lifelong Phillies fan takes part in ‘Phantasy’ camp

By Sam Jack

The Times-Sentinel sjack@tsnews.com

Since his early childhood, Cary Dinkel has been a huge fan of the Philadelphia Phillies baseball team.

The Eisenhower High School head baseball coach grew up in Hays, which was solid Kansas City Royals territory during his childhood. (The Colorado Rockies did not yet exist.) But when he was about 8 years old, his grandfather, John Staab, gave him a Phillies baseball cap.

That gift planted the seed of Dinkel’s Phillies “Phanaticism.” Then in 1980, when Dinkel was 12, Philadelphia made it to the World Series. The opposing team, as it happened, was the Royals.

The Phillies’ championship run that year gave Dinkel his first opportunity to watch them on TV. Siding with his team, over the local favorite, solidified his rooting interest.

“I remember Tug McGraw coming off the mound and slapping the glove on his leg. Those images stay with you,” Dinkel said.

Dinkel loves to watch baseball, but he has done much more than just spectate. As a player and now as a coach, the sport has been a huge part of his life for the past four decades.

He played catcher for Hays High School and the Hays Larks summer team, and he played for Neosho County Community College. His coaching career started in 1999, when he became an assistant at Andale High School. In 2005, he became an assistant, under head coach Tom Campa, at Goddard High School.

He followed Campa to Eisenhower High School when that school opened in 2011, then took over as the Tigers’ head coach when Campa moved away in 2016.

“So it’s been 20 years of coaching high school baseball. My son, Dalton, is now 21, and he’s still playing collegiately at Newman University,” Dinkel said.

“Our family loves baseball, being around baseball. We spend most of our vacations doing baseball stuff, and that’s kind of how our life has revolved.”

Dinkel turned 50 on March 10, 2018. To mark the occasion, his wife, Jenny, gave him a special present: a trip to the 2019 Phillies Phantasy Camp.

From Jan. 23 to 27, 120 Phillies diehards got to know former pros, swapped stories and played baseball games together at Spectrum Field, the Phillies’ spring training home in Clearwater, Fla. The camp was pricey enough that Dinkel doubts he

Cary Dinkel became a fan of the Philadelphia Phillies, thanks in part to a ballcap given to him by his grandfather. A native of Hays, Dinkel cheered for the Phillies when they faced the Kansas City Royals in the 1980 World Series. He recently took part in a fantasy camp at the Phillies’ spring training home in Florida.

Blessings were counted by Twila O’Brien on her 90th birthday on April 17th. Her excellent day was planned by her four children: Terry, Marla, Kevin & Aaron. Starting with a road trip to Carriage Crossing for a unique meal and a pie to go, the gathering headed south to relax on the newly remodeled O’Brien Marina. Everyone enjoyed the scenic view where pictures were taken and reminiscing over the many years’ experiences. As a storm popped up the group quickly dispersed home in a rush, leaving the luscious pie untouched, but another beautiful memory was added to our blessings.

Recent Cheney High School graduate Andrew Mock sustained facial injuries in a car crash. He has recovered, but the frightening incident inspired his family to campaign against texting and driving.

Rockers said Gomez has worked hard to improve

the Spanish program, a compliment echoed by principal Kody Kasselman.

“She is enthusiastic about teaching,” Kasselman noted. “Every time I’m in her class, there is an electricity and a vibe

that you can feel. She reaches all students – even those who are reluctant to participate. Those same reluctant students can resist and then find themselves getting involved. We love having her at GPHS.”

CHENEY – Andrew Mock was among the Cheney High School seniors taking photos and smiling with family at graduation on Saturday, May 11.

Fortunately, he has recovered from mouth and nose injuries he suffered in a car crash last fall. He was in a car on a two-lane country road, waiting to turn left, when another vehicle rear-ended him. It never slowed down, according to his family.

Mock’s aunt, Connie Mirza, and grandmother, Ann Mock, were alarmed after they learned that the driver who crashed into Andrew Mock was texting and driving. And they knew that the accident could have been much worse.

“Andrew had just gone to a friend’s funeral,” Ann Mock said. “I’m thinking, ‘What if he had been killed in a car wreck, too?’”

That motivated Ann Mock and Mirza to create a pamphlet telling “Andrew’s Story,” and to make rubber wristbands with an anti-texting-and-driving message.

Ann Mock distributed both to attendees at the Cheney graduation exercises.

There is no shortage of alarming statistics about texting and driving. Sixty-four percent of all road accidents in 2016 involved a cell phone, and texting and driving is six times as likely to get you in an accident as drunk driving, according to a University of Utah study.

Yet when polled, 77 percent of adults and 55 percent of teenage drivers said that they could easily manage texting while driving.

GARDEN PLAIN – Eric Rockers has heard a lot over the years when passing students in the halls at Garden Plain High School. These days, he hears something a little different than before.

“Never before in my 20 years of teaching at Garden Plain have I heard students speaking in Spanish in the hall and around school like I have since Senorita Gomez arrived,” Rockers said.

It’s a great compliment for Sara Gomez, who received one of the district’s Recognition of Excellence Awards in April. Gomez was recognized with fellow honorees at the May Board of Education meeting.

ElectroRally team has successful season

By Sam Jack

The Times-Sentinel sjack@tsnews.com Travis Mounts/The Times-Sentinel

Curtis Conrad was one of dozens of officials – many of them from our area – who worked at last weekend’s State track meet at Wichita State University.

Conrad, of Cheney, was a teacher, coach and administrator in Cheney before serving as activities director at both Goddard and Eisenhower High Schools.

Nunnelly part of ‘Steel Magnolias’ crew

CLEARWATER – Clearwater High School’s ElectroRally team had a successful season of racing in April and May. The team’s handmade electric vehicle took third at events in Hoisington and Scott City, then took first place in the season-capping race on May 4 in Olathe.

“We have two cars, both

around four years old,” said driver Jesse Whitley, who just finished his junior year. “We’ve been modifying and making them more efficient so we can last longer and go faster.”

Before the Olathe race, the team found an inefficiency in their vehicle’s power delivery system.

Fixing it allowed the vehicle’s battery to complete more laps than any competitors.

“It’s a 60-minute race

where all the cars start at the same time, and the goal is to get the most laps,” Whitley said. “So speed is an aspect, but it’s more about efficiency and keeping your battery going. If you eat up all your battery at the beginning, then you don’t go anywhere at the end.”

In addition to Whitley, this year’s team members were Robbie Schroeder, Andy Rakes, Austin Erwin and Zac Randolph. Shop teacher Ron Cox was the

GODDARD – Olivia Nunnelley of Goddard was part of the Emporia State University production of “Steel Magnolias.” The play is by Robert Harling.

Nunnelley was assistant hair and makeup designer.

“Steel Magnolias” revolves around six women who come every Saturday morning to Truvy’s beauty shop where the ladies catch up on the drama of the town and with each other. Each woman has difficulties in her life and the women offer support for one another that helps them through their troubles with laughter.

The play had a long run off-Broadway and has been revived many times since. The 1989 film was directed

by Herbert Ross and featured an all-star cast including Shirley Maclaine, Sally Field, Dolly Parton and Julia Roberts.

Nunnelly also was on the crew of ESU’s production of “Romeo and Juliet.” She served as assistant costume designer for that show.

Waterlogged Kansas may be in for even more rain, flooding

By Mary Lou Peter K-State Extension Rainfall patterns that turned lawns and farm fields into unintended ponds and swelled rivers to capacity and beyond are likely to continue into June, according to weather specialists at Kansas State University.

“The persistent pattern has consisted of back and forth movement of a stationary front across the central Plains. This front is separating cold with below-normal temperatures to the north and west and above-normal temperatures to the south and east,” said Chip Redmond, manager of Kansas Mesonet, a system of weather

Sedgwick County received as much as 8-10 inches of rain over a seven-day period ending on Monday.

stations across the state that detect and record weather data. “Where the front sets up daily will be the focus for the heaviest flooding rains.”

Because of already saturated soils, Redmond and his colleague, assistant climatologist Mary Knapp, do not expect flooding issues to end in Kansas anytime soon.

“It is almost a guarantee that water control issues will continue into June, if not worsen,” Redmond said. Areas in the central and eastern part of the state have been hit particularly hard.

Springtime temperatures have also been below normal, said Knapp, who added that it’s a trend likely to

continue. That will also be a factor in how quickly the soil can dry out.

Beyond June, Knapp and Redmond expect temperatures to warm seasonably but noted that soil surface moisture may increase evaporation/transpiration rates, injecting moisture into the atmosphere. That in turn may result in above average shower and thunderstorm activity.

With ponds and lakes already near or at capacity in some areas, even without more moisture, it is likely to take months before flows return to normal, Knapp said.

“Every rainfall we get in the process will push back that return, possibly substantially,” she said.

Dinkel isn’t sure whether he’ll take part in another Phantasy Camp. “The first time was so great, I don’t know that I want to

change that memory,” he said. “It was just a bunch of great guys who live for baseball and the passion of baseball.”

BOTTOM RIGHT: Vehicles drive through a flooded portion of Main Street in Cheney last Friday.

Dinkel From Page 1A would ever have decided to sign himself up for it.

But his wife thought that the experience would be worth the cost – and it turned out she was right.

“The Phillies camp, it was life-changing,” Dinkel said. “Believe it or not, it was life-changing for me.”

A big part of what made it so meaningful was his team, “Team Lefty” – a manager and 11 players, ranging in age from 30 to 70.

“What was really neat about this team is you had guys that do a little bit of everything,” Dinkel said.

“Anders Apgar is a doctor; Lou Orth is the head football coach at Valley Forge Military College. Kris Toomey is probably one of the biggest, baddest dudes I’ve ever come across, and he loves motorcycles and baseball.”

Outfielder Jimmy Hagan fell from a three-story building and spent months in a coma before making enough of a recovery to take part in the camp, Dinkel said. “He helped our team stay together.

It was amazing to watch other men come to the aid of a person who needed assistance as we went on.”

Regardless of their backgrounds, the men all knew in advance that they had something in common.

“It was so weird to get there, not knowing anybody, and finding people who all have these stories about why you’re a Phillies fan, or why you’re a baseball fan,” Dinkel said.

Team Lefty’s two coaches, Matt Stairs and Rheal Cormier, both had successful, multi-decade pro careers. In 2008, Stairs was

part of a team that won Philadelphia its first World Series title in 28 years.

Stairs hit a game-winning home run in Game 4 of the NLCS series, earning the city’s undying gratitude.

Stairs, Cormier and the many other pros who attended and served as coaches at the camp were happy to share stories of past triumphs and frustrations, and Dinkel and his new friends were happy to hear them.

“Phantasy” is in the camp’s name, but Dinkel and his teammates were intent on winning for real.

They wanted to beat nine other teams of baseball obsessives to claim the title of Phillies Phantasy Camp World Champions.

Team Lefty went undefeated through four pool-play games, earning a spot in the championship game.

“The first four games, I played catcher, first base and outfield,” Dinkel said.

“During tryouts they had asked if I could pitch, and I said I was OK, but I nev-

er got called to the mound.

“Then we get to the championship game, and our pitcher was getting tired, and they sent me in.”

In the championship game’s final three innings, Dinkel pitched, giving up a single hit. He said all his years throwing batting practice were helpful in the clutch.

Dinkel also batted for a two-run RBI that gave his team the lead, and eventually the win. Team Lefty’s name was engraved on a huge trophy, along with 19 years worth of past champions.

“Any player who played baseball in college, playing professionally was something they wanted to do,” said Mike Warren, Dinkel’s assistant coach at Eisenhower. Of course, the great majority of players don’t get that chance. Whether it’s after high school or after college, many young men find themselves ejected from baseball in their early 20s, with a desire and ability to play but without a meaningful venue to do so.

The end of a baseball playing career, then, can sometimes leave a bitter taste, Warren said. Unlike many former players, Dinkel was fortunate enough to renew his connection to the game through coaching.

Still, going back out to play as a 50-year-old and getting one more meaningful victory was pretty sweet.

The experience has bound Dinkel and his teammates together. Most of them live in the Philadelphia area, but Dinkel exchanges text messages with them almost daily.

“Today at 10 a.m., we were just talking with Ron Beam, one of our old guys who just got a new hip. He’s going to try to be ready to play again next year, which is awesome,” Dinkel said on April 24.

“It was Rheal’s birthday yesterday, so we’re all wishing each other happy birthday.”

All 12 men are planning to reunite at Citizens Bank Park in August. They will be introduced on field during a Phillies game.

GP girls claim State championship

By Travis Mounts

The Times-Sentinel news@tsnews.com

The Garden Plain girls won the 2A State track and field championship last weekend.

The Owls claimed the title with a series of strong individual performances, including gold medals in three individual events and a relay, and were in the top three in seven of their 13 events. The earned team points in 10 different events.

In addition, the girls completed a rare feat – winning a State championship in three different seasons during the school year.

Garden Plain is the defending 2A State champion in volleyball and girls basketball, too.

Freshman Brooke Hammond has been a top performer all season for the Owls, and delivered again at Wichita State. She won the 100 and 200 meters. She was the ninth seed in the 200 meters, slowed at the regional meet as she

recovered from a grown injury.

Because of that time, and changes to the State schedule because of bad weather, Hammond had to ran in the slower heat. Preliminary races for nearly every race were cancelled. Instead, athletes ran in two heats, seeded by times.

There were no traditional finals races except for the 1A, 2A and 3A 100-meter hurdles.

Winning the 200 from the slower heat was difficult, said Garden Plain girls’ head coach Eric Rockers.

“Lane 7 is really hard to run in,” he said. Runners in the outside lane can’t see competitors coming from behind them on the curve.

Allison Catlin won the 2A 100-meter hurdles finals on Saturday after entering as the No. 3 seed based on Friday’s preliminaries. Her finals time of 15.78 was an improvement of .34 seconds The 4x100 relay team also brought home gold. The team

members are Claire Clark, Macy Catlin, Nikole Puetz and Brooke Hammond.

Brianna Puetz took second in a closely contested shot put event. Her best throw of 391.5 was just a half-inch behind champion Grace Thompson of Sedgwick.

The girls 4x400 also ran well, taking second.

Christia Rose Gorges, a sophomore, tied for third place in pole vault by clearing 9-6. The top vault this year was 10-6.

Allison Catlin picked up a second medal with her fifthplace finish in the 300-hurdles.

Nikole Puetz was sixth in the 400 meters, one of three Owls in that event. Freshman Sophia Smith competed in two events, and earned a medal with her sixth-place performance in triple jump.

The overall result pleased Rockers.

“I was just hoping to top 3. I wanted the girls to bring home

some hardware,” he said. “The girls performed very well and got more points than I predicted.”

The 4x100 relay broke the school record, which was set at the 2018 State meet. And Puetz tied the school record in shot put.

The meet was suspended twice. The first time was early in Friday’s schedule, and then again late Saturday with just a handful of events. The Owls’ team victory was not official until final events were completed midday Sunday, but by Saturday night they had scored enough points to secure the win.

The boys scored 20 points to finish 11th out of 46 teams that scored points.

Shot put was a highlight for the GP boys, where all three of the Owls’ competitors landed on the medal stand. Alex Cordova took fourth, Locke Byers was sixth and Jack Haukap finished eighth.

Arden Rex in javelin and Tyler Dreiling in discus both medaled with fifth-place finishes in their respective events.

Nick Bugner was ninth in Friday’s 110-meter hurdle preliminary, missing out on a spot in finals by just .01 second.

Cheney girls 2nd, boys 3rd at State

The Cheney girls track and field team ran its way to second place at this weekend’s 3A State meet, held with other classes at Wichita State’s Cessna Stadium.

The Cardinals won three gold medals, and found their way to the medal stand eight times.

Meanwhile, the boys nearly matched that team performance, taking third.

Layne Needham played a big role in the girls’ success, sweeping both hurdle events and anchoring the 4x100-meter relay that also won gold. Needham’s three gold medals over the weekend gave her five championships at State track, equalling the career performance set by her older

sister, Taylor, just a few years ago. The younger Needham set a personal best time of 44.79 in the 300-hurdles. Needham also took fifth in the 200 meters.

In the 4x100, the Cardinals were in third place when Needham took the baton from Brooklyn Wewe, and she overcame the runners ahead of her to give Cheney the win. The other 4x100 team members are Madisynn Hair and Lacy Luehrs.

Mollie Reno and Madison Amsink, both juniors, also had strong performances. Reno placed twice in the long-distance events, taking fifth in the 1600 meters and sixth in the 3200.

Reno also ran the opening leg of the 4x800, with Brooke Rosenhagen, Blaire Hoeme and Olivia Albers.

Amsink competed in three events. High jump is her best, and she proved she’s one of 3A’s best with her second-place performance at 5-2, just two inches behind the winner.

Chloe Grusing, who compet-

ed in two events, found her way to the medal stand by placing seventh in discus.

The Cheney boys brought home several medals, including two golds. Trey Patterson was a heavy favorite in javelin and he did not disappoint, taking first with a throw of 195-10. That was more than 12 feet better than at the 2018 State meet, where he finished in fourth place. Teammate Braden Black also placed in javelin, taking

seventh.

Indians/Owls fall 5-2 to Augusta in state championship game The Indians went down swinging last Saturday, coming up short 5-2 to Augusta in the 4A state softball championship game. The Indians ended the season 23-2.

Andale-Garden Plain, the tournament’s No. 1 seed, knocked off No. 8 Louisburg 10-0 in six innings in the quarterfinal game. The Indians then took on No. 5 Rose Hill and defeated the Rockets 3-1.

That set up a rematch with No. 2 Augusta, which gave Andale-Garden Plain its only loss during the regular season. The Indians also gave the Orioles their only regular season loss.

In the Indians’ first at-bat, Kyla Eck got aboard on an infield single, advanced to second on a throwing error and then scored the first run of the game on an RBI-double from Macie Eck. Pitcher Rachel Choate faced the minimum number of batters

through the first three innings and the Indians’ 1-0 lead held up until the top of the fourth, when Augusta took the lead on an infield single, a throwing error, a misplayed fly ball in the outfield and a single to take a 3-1 lead.

In the fifth inning, Andale-Garden Plain closed the margin to one run on a sacrifice bunt by Madison Grimes that scored Kyla Eck from third base.

In the sixth inning, Augusta answered with two more runs on a big two-out hit that pushed their lead to 5-2 and stood the rest of the way. Choate suffered her first loss of the season and finished the year with a 14-1 record to go along with three saves.

“It was a tough loss against a familiar opponent,” coach Chuck Schrader said.

The Indians had an uncharacteristic three errors in the championship game, which cost them in the end.

“We battled all the way, and our kids have a lot to be proud of,” Schrader said.

In the Rose Hill game, Choate retired the first eight batters she faced before the Rockets had their first base-runner via a walk. Meanwhile, the Indians left runners in scoring position in each inning in the first three innings.

In the top of the fourth, Rose Hill had a one-out single, followed by a stolen base and a double, which drove in the Rockets’ first and only run of the game. In the bottom of the fourth, Andale-Garden Plain stranded another runner at third, leaving the Indians in a 1-0 hole headed to the fifth.

After a three-up-three-down inning for Rose Hill in the top of the fifth, the Indians scored three runs to take the lead.

Ashton Winter led off the inning and scored two batters later on a triple by Grimes. Grimes scored

one batter later when Macie Eck singled to make it 2-1.

Abby Gordon then reached on an infield-single. That was followed by Morgan Bruna’s RBI-double. Choate took it from there with the only Rose Hill batter to reach in their last two at-bats coming on a throwing error.

Choate struck out five, while only allowing two hits.

In their tournament opener against Louisburg, the Indians left runners in scoring position in their first two at-bats. But a big, eight-run third put them in command of the game.

Choate went the distance to get the win, striking out 10 batters along the way and only allowing two singles.

The Indians also grabbed AVCTL-Div. IV honors with pitcher Alyssa Mude (freshman), third baseman Bruna (junior) and first baseman Ashton Winter (sophomore) named to the

Second-Team All League.

Getting the nod for FirstTeam All League was pitcher Choate (junior); second baseman Kyla Eck (sophomore), shortstop Grimes (junior), catcher Abby Gordon (junior), outfield Macie Eck (senior), outfield Kylie Horsch (sophomore), outfield Anna Berblinger (sophomore), and designated player Choate.

Frontenac shuts out Cheney in State opener

The Cheney Cardinals’ dreams of a State softball title ran into a stone wall named Frontenac.

Frontenac pitcher Karma Fields limited the Cardinals to just three hits in the quarterfinal round of the Class 3A State tournament last Thursday, tossing a 6-0 shutout that ended the Cardinals’ season.

Alexis Lorenz had two of Cheney’s three hits.

Frontenac went on to win the State title despite entering as the eighth seed at State.

Despite the first-round loss, the Cardinals had as good of a season as any during the history of their program. Cheney suffered just a single regular-season loss, compiling a record of 21-1 in the regular season and the regional tournament.

Wellsville scored early and often against the Cardinals and dominated for a 12-1, run-ruled five-inning win in the State quarterfinals last Thursday.

Cheney managed just four hits against the Eagles. Kauy Kuhn started and took the loss on the hill.

The Cardinals end the season with a 19-5 record. They started the season with 12 straight victories, and won seven of 10 doubleheaders in

Trudo wins 5A State title, Cardinals third in 3A

By Travis Mounts

The Times-Sentinel news@tsnews.com

Tyler Trudo could not finish his senior golf season any better.

The Eisenhower Tiger won the Class 5A state title last week at Mariah Hills Golf Course in Dodge City.

Trudo and teammates Mateo Villegas and Myles Brewer all went to 5A State as individual competitors. They were supposed to play on Monday, May 20, but rain across the state created problems at the various State tournaments. The 5A tournament never started, and was played two days later.

Trudo and Gentry Scheve of Emporia both shot 67 to lead the field by a stroke, and Trudo won a playoff to claim the individual title.

Villegas, another senior, shot 74 and finished in a four-way tie for 15th. Brewer was just two

strokes back. His 76 put him in a six-way tie at 23rd.

The Cheney boys shot 341 to place sixth at the 3A State meet, held in Emporia. Play started last week on Monday, but was halted until last Wednesday because of rain.

Sublette was the 3A champion with a score of 327, but only five strokes separated the next five teams. The next five teams were Caney Valley (336), Hesston (339), Phillipsburg (339), Goodland (340) and Cheney (341). Thomas More Prep-Marian and Nemaha Central were close behind with scores of 349 and 350, respectively.

Dyland Freund capped his high school with a top-10 finish. His 18-hole score of 78 was good for sixth place. David Pierson of Sabetha won with 76, and four players tied with a score 77.

Freshman Harrison Middleton concluded a successful

freshman year. By the end of the season, he was consistently the No. 2 or 3 scorer for the Cardinals. He shot 83 to tie two other players for 19th.

Connor Stephenson, another senior, tied for 36th at 89, and sophomore Ethan Cokely shot 91 to tie several players for 48th. Junior Aidan Cole shot 93, tying with a group of players for 56th place. Ryne Asbury, a senior, was just a stroke back at 94, tied for 62nd.

Rain problems at some sites extended into this week. The Class 6A tournament was rescheduled to Tuesday of this week, and moved from Newton to Mayetta, north of Topeka. The 4A tournament was rescheduled to Wednesday this week, and moved from Winfield to Dodge City. The 2A tournament at Hesston was rescheduled to Wednesday of this week.

All six State tournaments were postponed to some degree.

Meanwhile, Marx cleared 12-6 to take seventh in pole vault.

The Tigers sent three boys and three girls relay teams to the State meet.

The girls 4x400-meter relay had the best performance, taking fifth to earn a spot on the medal stand.

Teagan Mies just missed a medal, placing ninth in shot put. Eisenhower sent 11 girls and 10 boys to State.

Luke Grace tied for eighth in high jump, one of six competitors to clear 6-0. Three made it on the first jump to tie for fifth, while Grace and another athlete made it on their second attempts. Another

Later we moved to a hotel on the edge of Chinatown and Little Italy, and the experiences were totally different. But the sense of neighborhood never changed.

In Little Italy, we stumbled across Di Palo’s, an Italian cheese shop with a rich history in that neighborhood. Established in 1925, the fourth generation of Di Palo family members are now working there.

We met Sal Di Palo, who runs the shop with his brother Lou. Grandfather and father before them built the business, and they are now its stewards. Niece Jessica Di Palo now works there, as does her mother.

The quality of cheeses, meats and breads we were able to purchase there were incredible, and on two occasions we made picnic lunches with our purchases from the shop.

We watched as neighborhood residents were treated with great love and respect – and how we were given those same courtesies each time we came into the shop.

We had – if only for a few days – become a part of the neighborhood.

Indians win State medals

By Travis Mounts

The Times-Sentinel news@tsnews.com

The Clearwater boys track team earned medals in six of seven events at the 4A State track meet, held Friday through Sunday at Wichita State.

Most events took place on Saturday, as rain cancelled all of the 4A schedule on Friday. A few final events were held Sunday after another round of storms forced a postponement for a second straight day.

The boys 4x800-meter

relay team had the best overall performance. The Indians – with Logan Mount, Mason Seiter, Zach Trotter and Drake Beatty – placed second.

Cole Bixler-Large had the best individual day.

He finished third in both the 800 and 1600 races. Bixler-Large, Logan Mount, Brett Noland and Drake Beatty teamed up for a sixth-place finish in the 4x400 relay.

Mount also earned an individual medal with his eight-place finish in the 400 meters. Meanwhile, Trace Tjaden came in

fifth in javelin, with a best throw of 173-6. Sean Layton was 11th in long jump.

For the girls, Carlee Lill placed 14th in triple jump. Bethany McGuire was 14th in the 400 meters.

4A Girls 400: Bethany McGuire, 14th, 1:05.58.

Triple jump: Carlee Lill, 14th, 31-3.

Goddard’s Kendal LeGrand pitches for the Lions as Gentry Shepherd, right, and Sydni Williams get ready on defense.

Lions fall in 5A softball semifinals

The Goddard Lions ran into a roadblock named Bishop Carroll in the Class 5A State softball semifinals last Friday.

The Eagles scored five runs in the bottom of the first inning and never trailed again on the way to a 6-3 win over Goddard last Friday. Bishop Carroll opened its half of the first with four straight singles and a triple to seize control of the game.

The Lions managed just

four singles against Bishop Carroll, two by Tori Vang.

Because of weather issues, there was no thirdplace game played this year.

In last Thursday’s quarterfinal, Goddard scored in every inning and won a wild 11-8 game against Wichita Northwest. The Lions and Northwest were tied 6-6 in the middle of the fourth, but back-toback two-run innings for Goddard proved key.

Gentry Shepherd had a pair of hits – including a two-run homer in the bottom of the first inning – and drove in three runs, while Kinley Poynter added two hits and two RBIs.

Northwest 000 600 2 – 8 12 2 Goddard 231 221 x – 11 8 2 W – LeGrand.
