ARLINGTON — Pirates and zombies made their debut at Arlington’s “Hometown Halloween” this year, but they were joined by plenty of familiar favorites.

Karen Ricketts noted that Arlington Hardware conducted its 20th annual pumpkin-carving contest on Oct. 29, a tradition that began with a pumpkin weigh-in during its first year.

“Our winner for that year weighed 264 pounds,” Ricketts said. “We had 60 people enter-ing pumpkins this year, which is about what we usually get. The weather didn’t hold anybody back,” she added, noting the day’s sunny skies.

Pastor Chad Blood and his

family dressed up as the charac-ters from “Tron Legacy,” but they hardly had the most elaborately decorated vehicle at the Lifeway Foursquare Church “Trunk or Treat” in the city of Arlington parking lot, as Wayne, Megan and Kathryn Dobbs donned costumes and outfitted a truck trailer with straw to recreate the Biblical story of Daniel in the den of lions.

Also in attendance were “The Pirates of Treasure Island,” who not only joined the Arlington Kiwanis Club in collecting food and financial donations for the Arlington Food Bank, as well as an estimated 200 pairs of shoes for Kids’ Kloset, but also judged the all-ages costume contest which followed the trick-or-treating on Olympic Avenue.

“This is difficult,” said Tony Thompson, a.k.a. “Captain

Redbeard,” as he sized up close to 100 contestants based on style and originality. “There are a lot of really good costumes here.”

Eli Todd took first place in the ages 9-12 category for gluing a beard to his face, covering him-self in copper-colored paint and affixing a cardboard disc on one shoulder to pose as an Abraham Lincoln penny, while Lellie Davis took third in that same category for transforming herself into a bag of jelly beans using a bunch of multicolored balloons. Moms Marcy Todd and Lorinda Davis admitted that they burned the midnight oil helping their kids put together their outfits.

“I also loved how dog-friendly the Hometown Halloween was this year,” said Lorinda Davis, who

Mary Green, the local business owner and longtime Arlington resident whose vision inspired downtown businesses to purchase the town clock that now stands on Olympic Avenue, cut the ribbon to dedicate it on Oct. 29.

BY KIRK BOXLEITNERkboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — When the clock struck 11:30 a.m. on Oct. 29, downtown Arlington proceeded to “Rock Around the Clock” to commemorate the completion of a proj-ect that’s been on the Downtown Arlington Business Association’s to-do list for years.

“This day has been one of our long-term goals,” DABA President Debora Nelson said during the dedication of the new town clock on Olympic Avenue, near Legion Park and next to the city of Arlington parking lot. “It’s a beautiful clock that conveys a sense of com-munity here in the downtown area.”

Nelson credited Mary Green, a local busi-ness owner and longtime Arlington resident, with having the vision to inspire downtown businesses to purchase the town clock, which

they did through the pro-ceeds of various DABA fundraisers throughout the years, including the annual Show ‘N Shine Car Show.

“I’m really proud of our merchants,” said Nelson, before she cited the support of the rest of the community. “By turning out for and tak-ing part in these events, you all helped make this happen too.”

The Arlington City Council accepted DABA’s gift at their Aug. 1 meeting. According to Nelson, DABA organized and covered the cost of the installation of the clock with the help of proj-ect manager Terry Marsh, city Recreation Coordinator Sarah Lopez, Cuz Concrete and Donnelson Electric.

“The guys who helped to lift this hefty clock are retired Arlington Fire Chief Jim Rankin, Jay Downing,

and David and Justin Klein,” Nelson said. “The thought has been there for many, many years.”

Green’s official cutting of the ceremonial ribbon short-ly after 11:30 a.m. was fol-lowed by a rousing rendition of Bill Haley’s “Rock Around the Clock.”

The clock was pur-chased from East Bay Clock Company and stands 12 feet tall. It’s made of heavy cast iron, with gold trim and an unbreakable face. Nelson described its style as complementary to historic downtown Arlington, and estimated that the cost of its purchase and installation adds up to an approximately $9,000 investment in the city.

“We felt it was important to accomplish a longtime goal such as this, and to demonstrate to the city our support and commitment to the success of downtown Arlington,” Nelson said.

escorted her children and their pets up and down the sidewalks that day. “They got plenty of treats too. The pirate music added a lot to it as well, I think.”

DABA President Debora Nelson estimated that at least 700 kids filled their bags with candy from participat-ing merchants, adding up to more than 2,000 visitors to downtown Arlington when parents and other adult rela-tives are included.

“It’s neat to see everyone participate,” Nelson said. “This year, the efforts of all the groups in the city culmi-nated very well.”

Nelson credited this year’s turnout to advertis-ing throughout the pre-ceding week on KVOS TV, positive word-of-mouth and Hometown Halloween’s sta-tus as a town tradition.

“People expect Arlington to provide family fun,” Nelson said. “Even folks from other towns come here because they know what they’ll expe-rience in Arlington.”

Perhaps the only aspect of this year’s activities that wasn’t an improvement on last year’s Hometown Halloween was Lifeway’s pumpkin roll down the First Street hill, which saw few of its pumpkins make it all the way down the hill in the early rounds.

“I could swear those pumpkins rolled better last

year,” Blood laughed, even as he thanked Foster’s Farm for donating 40 pumpkins to this year’s event.

Of those who managed to get their pumpkins in the baskets, Lisa Wild, 10, and Rebecca Favor, 13, cited their bowling experience, while Kimberly Luna, 11, and David Sotero, 12, simply pitched theirs as hard and fast as they could.

Downtown Arlington’s activities wrapped up that afternoon with the town’s first “Zombie Walk,” dur-ing which close to 40 sham-

bling ghouls raised more than $400 for art supplies for local middle and high school-aged young people, by lurching down Olympic Avenue toward Legion Park.

“After I met a student in my gallery one day who was unable to do her art at home because she couldn’t afford the supplies, I decided to try and do something about it,” said Claire Cundiff, owner of Fogdog Gallery, who fully expects the undead to return to downtown Arlington for next year’s Hometown Halloween.

Stilly Valley Genealogical Society hosts Nov. 5 book sale

ARLINGTON — The Friends of the Arlington Library are having an all-new books sale on Saturday, Nov. 5, from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.

The Stillaguamish Valley Genealogical Society, locat-ed at 135 N. Olympic Ave. in downtown Arlington, will host the sale, which will include a number of self-help and health-related books, along with an assort-ment of fiction.

According to Bea Randall, president of the Friends of the Arlington Library, the books were donated by the owner of a bookstore that recently went out of business, and will be sold a major discount.

Stillaguamish Senior Center offers dental screenings Nov. 8

SMOKEY POINT — The Stillaguamish Senior Center is offering limited dental care for seniors.

The “Senior Smile For Life” dental access program is now operational and accepting appointments. It’s a way for seniors to obtain important dental screen-ings, cleanings and preven-tive services. It’s not free, but costs are low and dis-counts and payment plans are available.

Free screenings will be offered on Nov. 8 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Application packets are available to pick up at the Stillaguamish Senior Center on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays at 18308 Smokey Point Blvd. in Arlington, or you may make an appoint-

ment for a free screening by calling Adele Erbeck at 360-653-4551, ext. 234.

If necessary, the hygienist will refer patients to an area dentist for additional care and treatment.

Next Qwuloolt Marsh tree planting Nov. 5

MARYSVILLE — Sound Salmon Solutions will part-ner with the Tulalip Tribes and the city of Marysville to continue their Qwuloolt Marsh restoration with a tree planting on Nov. 5.

This event will run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and con-tinue the hard work accom-plished by volunteers at the

Sept. 23-24 Days of Caring with the United Way of Snohomish County.

The Qwuloolt Estuary project is a nationally-rec-ognized estuarine restora-tion. The Qwuloolt Marsh — Qwuloolt means “marsh” in the Lushootseed lan-guage — is adjacent to Ebey Slough and lies within the Snohomish River floodplain near Marysville. According to Kurt Nelson of the Tulalip Tribes and Josh Fitzpatrick of the Army Corps of Engineers, the project is one of the largest estuarine habi-tats to be restored in Puget Sound, second only to the Nisqually Delta.

Volunteers and Sound Salmon Solutions staff will

plant native species over an area of the marsh. Volunteers will have the chance to learn about native plant identi-fication, salmon and their habitat, estuarine systems, and the site’s history as part of the only remaining 17 percent of the Snohomish Estuary.

For more information, contact Kristin Marshall, habitat restoration program manager for Sound Salmon Solutions, at 425-252-6686 or kristin@soundsalmonso-lutions.org.

To register for this event, contact Michele Harmeling, volunteer coordinator for Sound Salmon Solutions, at 425-252-6686 or michele@soundsalmonsolutions.org.

LETTERS TO THE EDITORLundberg is best for school board

Marysville students are lucky that Pete Lundberg is running for the Marysville School Board, District 3.

Due to our state’s poor economy and budget cuts to education, Marysville schools are experiencing very difficult times. Its school board direc-tors need to understand the details of how state budgets and school districts work, how to stretch limited funds, and what is best for kids. Pete understands all of these things from the inside out having been the principal of Marysville Middle School for 18 years.

As a former MMS PTSA President I believe that Pete is the best candidate for the job. Join me in voting for Pete Lundberg for Marysville School Board.

Mayor Nehringlistens, cares

When Dennis Kendall retired mid-term as mayor in 2010 and was replaced by Jon Nehring, our city was quite for-tunate. He served nine years on the City Council of Marysville and is very knowledgeable of the work to be done.

In my view, I just want to acknowledge that Jon stepped into a difficult economic situ-ation with grace and excellent listening skills. By making hard decisions, he has managed to stabilize the city financially with as little impact as possible to city services and programs.

Now that is the kind of mayor that Marysville needs to retain.

His accomplishments are many: the financial situation due to his hard work; sidewalks and road improvements; we have better police protection; and getting volunteers to help clean up the graffiti in the city plus the unkempt yards, so as to improve the beauty of our city.

One thing that truly upsets me is that people don’t acknowledge that due to some local, state and even federal laws, our mayor’s hands are tied. When it comes to exist-ing policies, he is not to blame. (For instance, think “bikini baristas.”)

However, if you want a mayor who listens and cares, and can affect positive change, Jon is your man. Many thanks for all that you’ve done, Jon Nehring, and I hope you win the election.

Tolbert has vision, passion

Barb Tolbert’s vision and passion for the city of Arlington make her the obvi-ous choice as our next Mayor.

Her dynamic commitment to Arlington has already been proven in her citizen involve-ment as an Arlington Airport Commissioner, Arlington Economic Development Committee, Chair of Arlington’s Yes on EMS levy, long-time board member of the Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce and

I like to keep my finger on Marysville’s pulse to detect change. Like my doctor, I need

to know if there have been any significant happenings that might account for change.

Of course change is inescapable. Fresh change comes as newcom-ers settle and new businesses open their doors. Normal change hap-pens as we adjust to make things more practical, comfortable, efficient and profitable. Seen over time, normal change is rather like watching a restless dog remaking his bed.

Change of a more subtle type occurs as newish shops and offices and families weather first years of settling into lasting relationships with us. Or they lose footholds and wither or move away. Change is always a mix of ups and downs.

As local businesses change hands it’s a rare one that passes from parents to the next genera-tion nowadays. With a world of opportunity beckoning, it’s normal that kids want to go their own ways. Businesses get gobbled up in high-pressure buy-outs or lose cli-entele to big boxes. Since many of us are affected when change hap-pens, it’s important to take a look at the dynamics as a town transi-tions from home-owned opera-tions to corporate ownership.

Let’s say that Podunk, popula-tion 248, is too small a market to draw the interest of big chains. But when the nearby interchange proj-ect connecting north-south traffic with the east-west freeway is com-pleted, Mel and Edie who run the Podunk Café will be competing with brand new travelers’ conve-nience outlets offering everything from bananas and Band-Aids and

jo-jos and jumbo corn-dogs. It will happen because advance men sifted through maps and court house records like prospectors of old to determine that the new Podunk interchange might gener-ate a profit.

Mel and Edie are home-grown proprietors. Eateries at the new interchange will be run by man-agers who may not own a single share of stock in the companies they serve. Mel and Edie decide what flavors of pie to serve and how to display them while the corporate managers place the pies they’re assigned just-so in corpo-ration refer-cases. Mel and Edie deposit their proceeds in the near-est bank while the managers’ gross receipts wing off to corporate headquarters in Minneapolis.

Town councils should be tracking changes in the ratio of home-owned to corporate-owned businesses. But that ratio will only show the tip of the iceberg. The real significance lies in the ratio of total receipts between the two sectors. If home-owned and corporate-owned businesses may be likened to two vacuum hoses siphoning disposable income from Podunk, the turbo-charged corporate siphon is capable of sucking up everything but pennies dropped in parking lots.

The ownership mix of Marysville businesses is chang-ing. Corporate-owned big-boxes

and grocery chains now skim the lion’s share of sales. Tribally owned businesses are hybrids that may or may not be managed by corporate specialists. The next smaller tier, typified by NAPA, Radio Shack and Rite-Aid, is a mix of local franchise operators and corporate managers, usually determined by how much inventory and space are required. Local entrepreneurs can own smaller outlets that are supplied, decorated and operated according to corporate formulas. Think Subway or McDonalds.

In today’s business climate, true locally owned and operated busi-nesses occupy niches too small or specialized to attract corporate predators. Barber shops, specialty shops, hometown restaurants, bicycle shops and professional services typify this level. Some shops with roots in Marysville’s past have been able to defy cor-porate creep. Think Hilton Drugs or Don’s Restaurant. In between are regional chains like Bartell Drugs, a third-generation Puget Sound chain with less than 80 out-lets. Bartell’s is one of only three regional drug chains in the nation that haven’t been grabbed up by giants like Walgreens and Rite Aid

Corporate creep shows up on public facilities that sign away their identities for a fee. Comcast Arena, Quest Field, Safeco Field and Key Arena for a few. It shows up among elected officials who sign away their integrity for corpo-rate donations to campaign funds and promised future rewards.

It appears on consumer goods that leave shops as mobile bill-boards for their makers. It’s cool to

Consumers dote on Rolex, Ford, Harley-Davidson, K-2, Smith and Wesson, and Seahawk products. Corporate America’s analysts are watching to see which we fall for. They know our TV favorites, leisure pursuits and purchases.

Every business needs planners and dreamers but an economy built of Big Business uses a fraction of what’s needed by small business. And studies show that big business leaders maintain cliquish relation-ships that think with one mind. This may be good for business, but it is not good for the economy or the nation. That paradox surfaces wherever corpo-rate giants rule. For exam-ple, monopolistic bigness might be good for the bot-tom lines of ADM, Cargill, Monsanto and DuPont but it clearly undermines the quality of American agri-culture and diet.

We need to keep a watchful eye on corporate creep and consider where it’s taking us.

Nehring has my vote for Mayor

I’ve been reading the let-ters to the editor for the last several weeks regard-ing the Marysville Mayoral election.

Apparently Mr. Wright’s

expertise in running a city is that he worked in Afghanistan … promot-ing democracy? I think we may be better off with a mayor that actually has run a real city … in America. I’m sure there are plenty of towns in Afghanistan, Mr. Wright can run for mayor. It appears to me someone just finished his overseas job and is looking for a new job closer to home.

I’ll stick with Jon on this one.

Marysville

It’s time for T.H.R.O.

Some of you might remember what it stands for, Throw the Hypocritical Rascals Out. It’s time to act on this locally. The empire of Marysville has a great alternative for leadership. We have found the right person for mayor of our city, he is Kelly Wright. How could anyone vote back into office the people that created our problems?

All of us who live north of 100th Street NE were hijacked by the Empire of Marysville (annexed without a vote). Then they put all kinds of taxes on our utilities. We now pay more to live here and get less. This is unDemo-cratic, unAmerican and unacceptable. The exist-ing leadership supported

this annexation and tax increase — so why would we want to vote them back in?

We just received phony literature in the mail ask-ing us to support these pirates that hijacked and robbed us. The literature claimed a 15 percent drop in crime; but north of 100th Street on 51st Avenue NE crime has increased over 100 per-cent. Every week we hear of another break-in and robbery. It seems that thieves are attracted to this area ever since the empire took over.

It is obvious that local government is trying to force us off the farm and out of the community.

Let’s all do the right thing and vote for Kelly Wright — for the good of the community and the country.

Nehring has my support

Dear Editor, with care-ful consideration of the candidates for Marysville Mayor I will be supporting Jon Nehring.

Issues like the bridge at 156th have been criticized by his opponent without forethought to the process. The 156th Street transpor-tation plan shows long-range thinking. It is the final leg of the Lakewood

Crossing shopping cen-ter in Smokey Point thus providing traffic relief to shoppers and residences alike. It avoids the rail-road delays by being east of the tracks and is not hindered by a school to the east as it is at 136th. It will be the catalyst to creating an income and employment stream from economic development for all of North County. It will move traffic east into a large employment hub and send it back for the sales tax. It could also connect Hwy. 9 with I-5 sometime in the future.

I wish Kelly Wright would have run for City Council or applied for a Planning Commission seat prior to his bid for Mayor. It is a good way to get acquainted with our city and gain accurate local knowledge.

Becky Foster

Planning Commissioner (Retired)

Marysville

Candidates, what’s your plan?

Recently, while I was out for an afternoon shopping expedition, I made the grievous error of crossing State Street at 94th (I was leaving the west side of State and crossing to the Northeast corner of 94th), as you may or may not know there is no crosswalk there.

I have lived in Marysville about seven years and had no clue that what I did was considered jaywalking and I could have been given a ticket for $125. I did not impede traffic nor was my safety ever an issue. At 55 years old I do know how to safely cross a street without a light.

The only crosswalks in the area are at 92nd and then all the way up by Fred Meyer.

Today, I walked down 94th and wanted to go to McDonald’s. In order to accomplish this I would have had to double back to 92nd or do as I did and walk to the Fred Meyer’s corner, cross there (which is another horror story in itself) and then double back anyways.

Traffic on State is a night-mare 90 percent of the time and crossing even at the crosswalks is a hazard. Is this city so anti-walkers that there can’t be a cross-walk installed somewhere in between? Are there not people who make big bucks with college degrees sitting in city hall who could help with this issue?

Sorry, I’m just a little peeved because it seems that unless you drive, you don’t matter,

Okay, my challenge is this — candidates running for mayor — want my vote this month? Let me know what your idea would be.

It really is not important that you are happy with your religion,

what is important is that God is happy with your religion.

Are you tired of all the hype and materialism found in so many

religious groups these days? God has already shown us what true

religion is. At the Smokey Point church of Christ we are committed to

the open study and honest application of God’s word. It may not be

entertaining but it sure brings a rest from the burden of sin. Isn’t that

the whole point of religion? Let’s talk about it. 360-939-2080

ARLINGTON — The Arlington volleyball Eagles don’t quit.

Especially not on Senior Night.

The Eagles fell 3-0 to Marysville-Pilchuck but pitched dramatic comeback rallies in each game.

Outside hitters Vanessa Van Eyk, Lexi Sarver and Cassie Van Loo, middle hit-ter Alyssa Walker and setter Megan Abdo suited up for their final games.

“I’m going to miss it,” said Van Loo, who notched 11 kills and three blocks on the night. “I’ll miss how much we laughed. 80 to 87 percent of the time — 87.5 percent, if you will — we were laugh-ing.”

Arlington coach Melissa Thompson credited her seniors with creating a team dynamic that the younger players strove to live up to.

“I’ll also miss their sense of humor,” Thompson said.

Van Eyk plans to attend Everett Community College. Walker will attend Western Washington University. Abdo will study at Pacific Lutheran University. Sarver will move on to Point Loma Nazarene University in San Diego or Northwest Nazarene University in Nampa, Idaho. Van Loo will choose between Point Loma Nazarene and Texas Christian University. King has yet to decide but wants to attend an eastern or southern Washington school.

M-P jumped out 13-4 in game 1, including two

runs of four straight points, before Thompson called timeout to cut into the Tomahawks’ momentum. Arlington started a 5-3 run to trail 16-10, but M-P’s offense overpowered the Arlington defense whose hitters jumped to block shots but whose backcourt would stand and watch as the ball touched Arlington’s side of the floor for point after easy point. The Eagles came back to within three at 23-20 but the comeback was deflat-ed when Arlington’s return

failed to clear the net and fell for the Tomahawk point. Down 24-20, Thompson called timeout to regroup but M-P stuffed the next Eagle return and took the game 25-20.

The Tomahawks mishan-dled a return and Arlington shanked a serve to the left to start Game 2, 1-1. They battled to a 19-15 M-P lead before Thompson called another timeout.

“Go out and earn every single point,” Thompson said. “Treat every point the same.”

“Earn it,” responded the Eagle squad.

Arlington traded points with the Tomahawks but could not stop the M-P onslaught, dropping game 2, 25-20.

But the Eagles were not about to concede game 3 to the Tomahawks — M-P would have to earn it.

The Eagles led 9-4 before M-P roared back to tie the game at 11 each. The Tomahawks took a 15-11 lead before Arlington called timeout to reset its strategy.

The Tomahawks led 22-18 before the Eagles began to peak, scoring three straight points, on the third of which the ball was in the air for what seemed like an eter-nity, back and forth, until at last it fell for an Eagle point. The crowd exploded and stomped in the bleach-ers to urge the Arlington comeback. The Tomahawks called timeout.

“I had so many thoughts running through my head on the last point,” Van Loo said of the Eagles’ score than

sent the crowd into a frenzy. “It was ridiculous.”

“Fight,” yelled the Eagle players to break the tim-eout.

Arlington tied the game at 22 but surrendered three straight points, on the last of which an Eagle shot sailed long and out of bounds to seal the game for M-P.

“I’m very impressed and I’m not surprised,” Thompson said of her team’s game 3 rally. “They have a unique chemistry and an ability to fight back.”

Eagles hang tough on Senior Night

BY JAKE MCNEALjmcneal@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — What a week Arlington soccer just had.

They beat second-place Lake Stevens to stay alive in the post-season hunt and knocked off Monroe to clinch the third and final 4A playoff spot.

“If you had asked (Arlington’s players) three weeks ago, they would have said they weren’t going to the playoffs,” Arlington coach Nathan Davis said. “This team was picked by other coaches

to be last in the league — it’s awe-some that they can hang their hats on the third-place finish.”

Against Lake Stevens on Oct. 24, senior forward Teresa Wadey scored a senior midfielder Sophia Hitsky-assisted goal to draw blood. Senior keeper Cassie Lake pitched a five-save shutout, fueled by sophomore defender Madi Grogan and junior mid-fielder Nellie Helm, to keep the Eagles alive for their loser-out showdown against Monroe for the third and final seed.

Arlington came through on the day that it mattered most, beat-ing Monroe 3-0 in Arlington on Senior Night to seal the deal.

“This is my seventh time in the playoffs, but the first time where senior night meant everything,” Davis said. “This team has good senior leadership — they were always very motivated, very ath-letic and they always improved throughout the season.”

Hitsky knocked in a penalty kick in the fifth minute against the Bearcats after senior forward

Dana Canaria was fouled in the box. Canaria took revenge on her own behalf by assisting Teresa Wadey on Arlington’s second goal off of a cross in the 25th minute. The pair connected again when Wadey struck again in the 70th minute off another Canaria assist. Lake secured another shutout with three saves as sophomore defender Darby Winterer and junior defender Ronnie Ladines shut down Monroe’s attack.

Arlington has since fallen 2-1 in a single-elimination match to

Edmonds-Woodway on Oct. 29.“They scored first and

we came back and tied it up at the 50th minute on a goal by Morgan Busby,” Davis said. “Unfortunately, they scored with 15 minutes to play to take the lead. We had a couple of good chances to equalize, but it wasn’t to be. (Freshman forward) Kaylee Bartley did a great job on the left wing and really led our attack from the outside – she created a lot of good opportuni-ties for us.”

Arlington soccer headed to playoffs

From left, outside hitter Vanessa Van Eyk, setter Megan Abdo, outside hitter Cassie Van Loo, middle hitter Alyssa Walker, libero Kela King and outside hitter Lexi Sarver stand proudly as this year’s graduating seniors.

LAKEWOOD — The 2011 Cougar football squad will tell you that every game

on the schedule matters.It’s what just won them

a Cascade Conference co-championship.

“The lesson was learned after the loss to King’s,”

Lakewood coach Dan Teeter said of the letdown his team suffered a week after its Sept. 30 homecoming win against Archbishop Thomas Murphy.

Redemption in the final game of the season was at hand if Lakewood could beat South Whidbey on Oct. 27.

A wiser Cougar team

trounced South Whidbey 34-7 to take the No. 1 seed in the 2A playoffs.

Archbishop Murphy fin-ished with a 6-1 division record, the same as the Cougars, by beating Sultan on Oct. 27, but took the second spot because of the loss at Lakewood.

Junior Cougar quarter-back Justin Peterson found the end zone three times by ground on 80 yards against South Whidbey and caught another touchdown — all in the first half.

“This was the second time Justin’s had a first half like that,” Teeter said. “The first time was against Granite Falls (on Sept. 23, in which Peterson had one passing, three rushing and two receiving touchdowns before halftime). He was at 20 touchdowns this season,

two short of the Lakewood record. If you give him a crease, he’ll find a way to hurt you.”

Senior running back Chris Melton made the evening more fun for Lakewood by gashing South Whidbey for a career-high 142 rushing yards — 155 yards when Teeter and the staff reviewed the game film — and an eight-yards-per-carry average.

“Chris is a workhorse,” Teeter said. “It’s fun to give him so many carries and see him dragging defenders.”

Lakewood hosts the Burlington-Edison Tigers, a rematch of last year’s 43-12 Burlington-Edison rout of Lakewood, at 7 p.m. on Nov. 4. With a win, Lakewood becomes the No. 1 seed from District 1 in the 2A State Tournament.

Q: Why didn’t the other Estimator go in my

crawl space?

A: I can’t speak up for them; here at Andgar we are very thorough during our free estimate. After we have properly sized the system for your home, we go into your crawl space so that we can measure your trunk line and make sure that your ductwork is properly sized for the system that we sized for you. The supply plenum is where the warm air comes out and that has to be large enough for the amount of heat runs that are in your home, especially for a Heat Pump. We also like to make sure that your insulation looks healthy underneath we make sure that there are no signs of grey everywhere as that indicates leaks in the ductwork. If you have had concerns of airflow we can usually see why and this helps us to better asses.
