Coach resigns Roosevelt job for sending players to find datesBY MATT PHELPS

Everyone knows that texting and driving is against the law. But tex-ting and coaching might be just as questionable for youth coach Troy Hen-num.

Less than a year after

being investigated for texting one of his soft-ball players inappropri-ately at Lake Washington High School, the Bothell select softball coach has resigned again - after just a week on the job at Roosevelt High School.

Hennum, 25, allegedly was put on leave after a

woman came forward claiming that he sent his players out to find wom-en, take their picture, get their phone number and text him the information.

“He submitted his resignation on Thursday,” said Seattle School Dis-trict spokesperson Teresa Wippel.

Hennum had just started with the team six days prior to the incident.

Hennum allegedly sent his players on a “scaven-ger hunt” to find “cute women.” Kat Aagard, who works in a Seattle sports store, said that she was approached by a group of school-age girls at work.

At first she was flattered and turned over her phone number. Hennum began sending her “flirty” text messages, the Seattle Times reported. She told ABC NEWS that “he seemed like a nice enough guy.” She became worried when she did an Internet search for Hennum and

found news reports of the investigation at Lake Washington High School.

Aagard reported the in-cident to Roosevelt High School administration.

Wippel said some have questioned the district putting Hennum on leave for the incident.

Rod Dembowski has been getting a little help from his friends - and making more along the way. He was appointed to the District 1 seat on the King County Council Feb. 11 and balancing the needs and advice of those friends, new and old, will be a big part of his new job.

District 1 represents Bothell, Kenmore and parts of north Kirkland, along with parts of North Seattle, Shoreline and Lake Forest Park. One of those friends is Bob Fer-guson, who vacated the seat after being elected as

Washington state Attor-ney General in November.

“I talk to Bob several times a week,” said Dem-bowski. “We are close friends and he has helped to smooth the transition. But his are big shoes to fill.”

Dembowski took the oath of office on March 4 from King County Superior Court Judge Sean O’Donnell, a friend and classmate of his at Georgetown University.

“We had one class together but there are not many kids from Washing-ton at Georgetown and we have stayed in touch,” said Dembowski, who was also joined by his two sons

A Bothell mother murdered in her home Feb. 12 had

defensive wounds on her hands and arms, a frac-tured skull, 19 separate blunt force strikes and stab wounds to the face

and hands, court docu-ments state.

Because of the nature of Susann Smith’s wounds, she had to be identified by her dental records.

Search warrants de-scribe an alleged struggle between Susann Smith, 37, and her killer. Witness interviews paint a new

picture of her estranged husband Alan Justin Smith’s frustration with the couple’s custody battle. Alan Smith has been named by police as a person of interest in the crime.

Bothell police said that no arrests have been made in the case but that

additional forensic tests are planned.

“They’re just continu-ing the investigation and following up on leads,” Bothell police Sgt. Ken Seuberlich told the Ever-ett Herald late Friday.

Bothell police found Susann Smith’s body in her bathtub with no signs

of sexual assault on Feb. 12. The front door was unlocked.

Detectives believe she was attacked in her bed with a blunt force object and the struggle contin-ued into the bathroom. An ax was found in the home but detectives de-termined that it was not

used in the attack. Police took blood sam-

ples from the residence for DNA testing that in-vestigators said would be instrumental in solving the case. They also served search warrants on Alan Smith’s apartment and vehicles.

ADVERTISER CHOICE ___________________________________________________________________________

Evan and Camden at the ceremony. “It was a neat moment.”

Dembowski still has some friends in King County government from when he served under Gary Locke from 1995-97 as an executive office policy analyst.

“We worked on a lot of issues that the county still faces,” said Dembowski. “I guess the big advantage is that I know how the county works. It has allowed me to hit the ground running.”

He also served as a special deputy prosecuting attorney for King, Pierce and Island

counties and was a member of the 2011 King County Districting Committee. That committee shifted the north end of Kirkland from Jane Hague and District 6 to District 1.

Dembowski had to leave some friends behind on Feb. 11, quitting his position with Foster Pepper PLLC to take the position on the council. He worked for the law firm for 12 years.

“I really enjoyed being a lawyer,” he said. “But serving the public made it the right decision. I want to help the county grow in an environ-mentally sound way.”

But the councilman is also

making new friends around the area. He met with north King County mayors on Tuesday.

“It is the way I get a regular update of the issues that those cities are facing,” said Dembowski.

One of those mayors is Kenmore’s David Baker, who also threw his hat in the ring for the council position back in December.

“He is terrific and is becoming a good friend,” said Dembowski, who has at-tended many meetings with Baker during the past month. “He is a fierce advocate for Kenmore.”

Dembowski’s first meet-

ing he attended after being named as councilman was the Feb. 11 Kenmore City Council meeting.

“I received a very warm welcome in Kenmore and Bothell,” he said.

One of Dembowski’s biggest concerns is transpor-tation and he knows how im-portant that is to Kenmore, Bothell and north Kirkland, with increased traffic on SR 522.

“The impacts on 522 from tolling are real,” said Dem-bowski. “And that increased traffic has impacts on cities.

The best thing we can do is be a voice for those cities. We need to make sure we have funds for transporta-tion because that drives the economy.

“It is important for Kenmore’s downtown and the Landing in Bothell. We need transportation-oriented development.”

He added that 522 is not only important for Bothell, Kenmore and Kirkland but also the region.

“(The realignment in Bothell) will hopefully al-leviate that choke point and

integrate development with better transportation through the area,” said Dembowski.

He is no stranger to Bothell, as he took part in the Fourth of July parade with Bob Ferguson, riding on a fire engine during the past few years. He plans to contin-ue that tradition this year.

But the biggest friends that Dembowski will have to make during the next eight months are District 1 voters, as he will have to run for election in November to keep the seat.

Ecology approves Kenmore shoreline master program

The Washington Depart-ment of Ecology (Ecology) has approved the city of Kenmore’s new shoreline master program.

Kenmore’s shoreline program will result in significant improvements in the protection, use, development and restoration of eight miles of shorelines and the water quality of Lake Washington, the Samma-mish River, Swamp Creek and other waterways.

The new master program combines local plans for future shoreline develop-ment and preservation with new shoreline development ordinances and related per-mitting requirements.

“Kenmore’s shoreline master program helps protect the economic and environmental health of our waters. By working together, we are protecting our trea-sured shoreline resources for ourselves, as well as our children and future genera-

tions. Our shorelines make Washington a great place to live,” said Geoff Tallent, Regional Shorelands and Environmental Assistance supervisor.

About 260 cities and counties statewide are in the process or soon will be updating or crafting their master programs, under the state’s 1972 voter-approved Shoreline Management Act.

Shoreline master pro-grams are the cornerstone of the act. The law requires cities and counties with regulated shorelines to develop and periodically update their locally-tailored programs to help minimize environmental damage to shoreline areas, reserve appropriate areas for water-oriented uses, and protect the public’s right to public lands and waters.

Kenmore brought diverse local interests to the table to work collaboratively. The shoreline master program process began with a thor-ough inventory of existing land-use patterns and envi-ronmental conditions. Par-

ticipants included waterfront property owners, scientists, nonprofit organizations and state and local resource agency staff.

Mayor David Baker said, “We are pleased that the new Shoreline Master Program has received final approval. Kenmore is known as the city by the lake, and we see great value in protecting and preserving our shorelines, particularly along Lake Washington.”

The master program:• Provides shoreline

regulations in one stop by integrating the city’s growth management planning and zoning, floodplain man-agement and critical areas ordinances.

• Addresses protection of habitat and water quality through regulations that ap-ply to shorelines, wetlands, and other critical areas in Kenmore.

• Includes a restoration plan showing where and how voluntary improve-ments in water and upland areas can enhance the local shoreline environment.

Two new taxes, one on residential water bills amounting to $423,000 per year for the city in revenue and a new

car-tab tax of $300,000 per year, were not enough to offset Kenmore’s record deficit in the 2013–2014 budget. An additional $400,000 was removed from capital funds, Real Estate Excise Tax, to balance the bud-get.

Kenmore had enough unused taxing authority in property and utility taxes to cover the tax increase but instead elected to broaden its taxing authority with the two new taxes. This will make it easier to raise future taxes without voter approval and undermines the principle that there should be accountability through a cap on taxing authority.

Without the tax increases and the $400,000 depletion of capital funding, the 2013-2014 operating budget deficit is a record $1.6 million.

As promised during incorporation in 1998, the operating surplus was our primary source of infrastructure funding for local roads and parks, among other city expenditures. During the first 10 years the surplus amounted to $27.6 million; $17 million of which was spent on City Hall and $10 million on Kenmore Village. That surplus has steadily eroded during the past six years into a deficit that not only

requires substantial tax increases but also the depletion of needed local infrastructure

funds. The exact opposite of what the financial plan promised voters at incorporation.

Prior to the recession, total rev-enue in 2006 of $10.3 million has increased to $10.8 million per year in 2013 and 2014 respectively. Dur-ing this time annual expenses of $8.1 million in 2006 have increased to $10.6 million per year.

Likewise, the direct costs of salaries and benefits have increased from $1.4 million in 2006 to $3 million per year in 2013 and 2014

respectively.As a small bedroom community, Kenmore

resident’s now have to pay 74 percent of the city’s total revenue.

This is much higher than most cities where local residents normally pay less than half of their total revenues. As operating costs continue to rise unchecked, the Ken-more City Council has nowhere to turn for funding but to local residents.

Yet the council continues to insist that there is no lack of surplus or deficit problem.

Baker among 21 mayors to write president on aviation

� e Alliance for Aviation Across America along with mayors from 21 communi-ties across Washington, including David Baker of Kenmore, have joined town and city o� cials from around the country in recognizing the critical im-portance of general aviation to towns and communities.

� e petition speci� cally cites the harm of negative rhetoric and increased taxes on businesses, farms and non-pro� t organizations that depend on general aviation, and highlights the struggle that the industry has faced. In Washington, general aviation contributes more than $3.18 billion to the economy every year and supports 7,615 jobs.

Dear Mr. President:We write to express our

deep concern that your com-ments about general aviation in recent weeks and months

have not only mischaracter-ized these aircra� and their crucial importance for our economy, but have suggested that the businesses and communities that depend on this form of transportation can a� ord an increased tax burden for general avia-tion operators. On behalf of over 100 communities in 48 states, we write to let you know that for thousands of towns and communities like ours around the country, general aviation is a vital part of our economy and national infrastructure, and we are extremely concerned about the repercussions of your statements on this im-portant lifeline to communi-ties around the nation.

General aviation supports 1.2 million American jobs, over $150 billion in econom-ic impact annually, and is a vital economic engine for our national economy. However, it is also a struggling indus-try. � ere has been a 15.5 percent drop in general avia-tion aircra� shipments, and billings for general aviation have dropped 22.3 percent. Since 2008, manufacturers have also laid o� roughly

20,000 workers, which is ad-ditionally concerning given that the general aviation industry remains one of the only sectors in U.S. manufac-turing that still contributes positively to the balance of trade.

In addition, general avia-tion aircra� and the airports they utilize are a literal lifeline to our communities, providing access for business growth, law enforcement, disaster relief, medical care and other services. � ey are utilized to help transport blood and organs to resi-dents in rural communities, reunite veterans back from overseas with their families, and help our companies to reach customers in markets that otherwise could not be reached.

As you know well, the vast majority of businesses and organizations that own and utilize general avia-tion are not wealthy CEOs. Rather, 85 percent are small to mid-sized businesses and organizations that rely on these aircra� to reach far-o� plants and customers, serve rural markets without access to commercial aviation, or

deliver medical care and other services. We can tell you � rsthand that these air-cra� are a crucial tool and resource for businesses in our communities; businesses that keep our communities a� oat and help workers to be able to continue to put food on their table for their families.

Also concerning to us is the recent discussion of new “user fee” taxes on general aviation aircra� operators. � ese taxes would mean not only an additional tax burden, but a huge adminis-trative burden on businesses, farms and organizations that use general aviation and that would have to liter-ally keep track of invoices for fees for thousands of take-o� s and landings. In addition, at a time when our government is supposed to be � nding ways to reduce government spending, we do not understand why some in Congress seek to create huge, new bureaucracy within the FAA to administer these new taxes.

At such a vulnerable time for our economy, we need to be doing everything we can to support jobs and help

to stimulate our economy, not crippling an important industry which represents a lifeline to communities such as ours around the nation. We stand ready to work with you on this and all issues related to local communities around the nation.

Levy-dependent organizations in have moved into Taj Mahal-sized facilities

Northshore citizens should be aware that many of the levy-dependent governmental organizations have recently moved into Taj Mahal-sized facilities.

If not, and just mention-ing a few, check out the new Kenmore city hall, the new expansive Northshore Fire Station, which is next to the now empty large brick one, and the large Northshore School District administra-tive building.

“He is in a position of authority and you can’t ask players to do something like that,” said Wippel.

Lake Washington School District spokes-person Kathryn Reith said Hennum “was found to have violated district policy, but not to a level that would require a letter of reprimand or a letter of directive,” last year after he resigned from LWHS.

The Lake Washington School District’s investi-gation into alleged inap-propriate texting between Hennum and a LWHS female student athlete found no evidence of an inappropriate relationship between the two. Hen-num faced no punitive action from the district and was allowed to apply to coach for the team again but chose to apply elsewhere.

Hennum was placed on administrative leave in April 2012, just as at Roosevelt, after students reported he was texting a player. Hennum told in-

vestigators he reached out to the Kirkland student via text because he was concerned about her and that he “regretted” doing so. The student had alleg-edly been having off-the-field issues, investigation documents state.

Roosevelt’s assistant principal and athletic di-rector hired Hennum and had the information from the investigation.

“They interviewed him and sat down with some folks at Lake Washing-ton High School and discussed the situation that happened there,” said Wippel. “They also read the (investigational) report.”

Wippel said the two administrators made the recommendation to hire Hennum but ultimately it was the Roosevelt High School principal who had the final decision.

An Internet search for Hennum revealed that he has had an affiliation with the Bothell select softball team the Bandits. But he has since been removed from the web page. The Reporter has not received

a reply from the organiza-tion for comment.

A convicted felon who pleaded guilty to attempt-ing to hit a Bothell police officer with his car was sentenced to more than eight years in prison.

He faced a maximum of 25 years for second-degree assault, attempting to elude a pursuing police vehicle and unlawful possession of a firearm.

Prosecutors recommend-ed that Joseph Thomas Medoro, 32, be sentenced to 18 years in prison but

the court agreed that his chemical dependency contributed to his offenses. Medoro will also serve 18 months in community custody after his release and have to pay $600 in fees.

Medoro attempted to ram his Pontiac Grand Am into a Bothell police car during a traffic stop for expired tabs last summer. The officer was not in the car at the time and had drawn his weapon to take Medoro into custody. After ramming the police car, Medoro drove at another officer while attempting to

flee from the scene, accord-ing to court documents.

“(It) happened right after, when I was driving away and refused to im-mediately stop, drove in a reckless manner (running stop signs, speeding at high speeds, etc.),” stated Me-doro in court documents.

Medoro was able to elude police and the car was found abandoned in a nearby neighborhood. After a short search, a police K9 tracked down Medoro in a nearby wooded area.

Medoro was under com-munity custody at the time

for a previous conviction that included eluding po-lice. He was also wanted on felony charges in connec-tion with a rash of burglar-ies in Kirkland.

Medoro had a pistol in the vehicle, which he knew was a violation of his prior felony conviction for possession of methamphet-amines. Medoro was also found to have $4,000, a half pound of heroin, metham-

phetamines, a marijuana scale and other drug para-phernalia in his back pack when he was arrested, court documents continued.

The officer recognized Medoro during the traffic stop as someone he had dealt with before, according to court documents.

His criminal history began when he was just 13 when he was charged with malicious mischief. In 1996,

Medoro was convicted of his first felony for car theft when he was 15.

Medoro has been con-victed of 11 felonies since 2004. He was released from prison in December 2011 after serving nearly five years for possession of stolen property and meth-amphetamines. He also has three previous convictions for attempting to elude police.

tuition-based preschool and prekindergarten programs to move

The Northshore School District will re-locate the tuition-based preschool and prekin-dergarten programs at Cottage Lake and Frank Love elementary schools to other schools to ac-commodate enrollment growth, beginning the 2013–14 school year.

More classroom space is needed at Frank Love Elementary School to accommodate north end enrollment growth, and as a result, the tuition-based classroom at Frank Love Elementary School will relocate to Arrowhead Elementary School. Additional class-room space is needed at Cottage Lake Elementa-ry School to accommo-date enrollment growth of the district’s special education preschool and prekindergarten program, so the tuition-based classroom at Cot-tage Lake Elementary School will relocate to Hollywood Hill Elemen-

tary School.An informational

open house for the 2013-14 tuition-based programs will be held on March 27, 4-6 p.m., at the following schools:

• Cottage Lake Ele-mentary School in room B-103 located at 15940 Avondale Road N.E. in Woodinville. Contact Pamm Franzwa at 425-408-4224 for registration information.

Kenmore resident Geoffrey Castle will play his six-string electric violin during the 8th Annual St. Patrick’s Eve Concert at the Kirkland Performance Center on March 16. CourtESy of tiM MCGuirE

BY KEEGAN PROSSER

Reporter Newspapers

Playing violin is cool. At least that’s what Geoffrey Castle wants you to think. And if you’ve heard – or seen him – shredding on his six-string electric violin, you’d probably agree.

A seasoned performer who has called the North-west home for nearly 15 years, Castle fell in love with music whilst growing up in Alexandria, Va.

Raised on the music of the Beatles, the Rolling

Stones and Jimi Hendrix, Castle knew at an early age he wanted to be a rock-star. When Castle’s friends formed a garage band in high school, he knew he wanted a piece of the ac-tion. The catch? He wanted to play violin.

“They had Marshall amps and I had an acoustic violin – there was no contest,” Castle said about trying to play with the band.

Makeshift amplifiers and speaker connections did the trick for awhile, but Castle knew it was time to invest in the real deal. He purchased his first electric violin during his senior year.

After high school, Castle moved to New York City, where he attended Colum-bia University – and paid his way via the money he made playing on the streets.

“It was the perfect college gig,” Castle says. “I made my own hours – and got paid in cash.”

While in New York City, Castle also got a taste for Broadway – standing in as one of three musicians in the Tony-award winning play “M. Butterfly.”

“They needed a violin player who could improvise and play Chinese percus-sion,” Castle says.

Castle says most violin players aren’t trained to do that, but he knew if he wanted to set himself apart, improvisation was the way to go. As a result, Castle’s musical journey has been far from ordinary.

“I definitely took the road less traveled,” Castle says.

This road found him

teaching himself how to play louder, more experi-mental music than the stuff traditionally taught. In-spired by French-born vio-linist Jean Luc Ponty, Castle has become known for his genre-bending blend of Celtic, blues, jazz and rock and roll – and for pushing the boundaries of tradition-ally “classical” music.

A performer for more than 30 years, Castle has self-released eight albums of original music, the most recent being a double disc entitled the “Deep Well Sessions.”

When he’s not work-ing on his own material, the veteran player also sits in with other musicians. Castle has performed – and recorded – with the likes of Alan White (Yes), Spike Edney (Queen), Jamie Moses (Queen, Bad Com-pany), Tom Bowes (Tower of Power), Eric Bazilian (the Hooters), and more.

But for Castle, the best part about being a profes-sional musician is playing live, as evident in the 250-plus shows he does each year.

In addition to traveling the country, Castle plays host for the weekly Monday Night Celtic Night party at Kirkland’s Wilde Rover Irish Pub – where he and co-host Dan Connolly play a variety of Celtic tunes. This month, Castle will also host the 8th Annual St. Patrick’s Eve Concert, taking place at the Kirkland Performance Center.

Bothell police Sgt. Cedric Collins con� rmed that Smith died of “homi-cidal violence.”

Police were called to Smith’s residence at the 200 block of 240th St. S.W. in Bothell during a welfare check on Feb. 12. Police entered the home a� er receiving no answer at the door and seeing large amounts of blood through a bedroom window and the furniture “askew.” Smith’s employer, Z2Live, contacted the Bothell Po-lice Department because they were concerned about Smith’s welfare, said Z2Live CEO Lou Fasulo in a statement on Feb. 13. She failed to show up for two days of work.

Police said that the Smith’s two children were not home at the time of the incident and were ei-ther in the custody of the father or at school. � ey have since been placed with Child Protective Services. Alan Smith took custody of the couple’s two children on Feb. 9 and dropped them o� at school and daycare on the morning of Feb. 12.

A neighbor was the last known person to see Susann Smith alive, in her driveway late on the night of Feb. 10.

Bloody footprints, both bare or with socks along with the sole of a shoe, were found in the home. All the prints were deter-mined to be the same size.

Alan SmithPolice contacted Alan

Smith on Feb. 12 at his work and wrote in court documents that “his reac-tion seemed rehearsed.” When told that a dead body was found at Susann Smith’s residence, Alan Smith did not ask any questions about the iden-tity of the person and “did not o� er any assistance to (police).”

He described his relationship with his es-tranged wife as “friendly” and told investigators that their separation had to do with “sex and the kids.” Investigators noted that his tone was angry. He also could not account for four hours on Feb. 10.

“Alan said he had no idea who would want to harm Susann,” inves-tigators wrote. But when asked if he had harmed Susann Smith or if there could be any of his DNA in her house, he did not immediately answer. He said that when he was at the house on Feb. 10 to pick up the children he was wrestling with his son and had his hair pulled.

Investigators also noticed his le� hand was swollen. He explained that his 3-year-old son had hit his hand with the back of an ax at his apartment. Investigators stated that his story did not check out as the ax was too heavy for a 3 year old to swing and that the injury did not match the shape of the item. Police also noticed a Band-aid on his thumb, where he claimed he cut himself with a knife while

cutting an apple. He also had numerous other abra-sions on his knuckles that were almost healed.

� e Smith’s oldest child told detectives in speci� c detail that Alan Smith had cut an apple for them early on the morning of Feb. 12 but did not note that Alan Smith cut himself in the process.

When asked if he would ever harm his estranged wife, investigators wrote that “Alan did not imme-diately answer and would not look at me.” When asked again, Alan Smith told the investigator “I

think I may need to talk to an attorney.”

Investigators also noted that Alan Smith never

asked about his children until they

told him they would be staying with CPS, to which he commented “I guess I will have to live with that.”

Later that day, Alan Smith contacted Bothell police to invite them to search his apartment and car. Detectives found a Home Depot bag with unopened Kleenguard chemical splash resistant coveralls and a new roll of masking tape in his car. When asked about the items he said he planned to paint his apartment. Investigators also found unopened latex gloves. He claimed that all the items were purchased on his lunch break on Feb. 12.

Detectives also found papers in Alan Smith’s apartment pertaining to the divorce and custody

battle. One piece of paper was entitled “self talk” and had “Anger at colleagues for helping me drive her o� . Excessive need to talk and get validation. Sleep-lessness,” written on it.

Bothell police searched Alan Smith’s work com-puter and found a kayak.com search for a � ight from Seattle to Simon Bo-livar Airport in Venezuela for one adult and two chil-dren. � e date parameters for the airline were Feb. 12 to March 5. He also did a search for where the best places are abroad to live and work, the documents continue.

He also searched on google.com “will Venezu-ela extradite to the U.S.”

Alan Smith’s ex-girlfriend

A woman claiming to be Alan Smith’s ex-girlfriend advised police that they had dated for two to three months in fall of 2012. She knew at the time that he was going through a di-vorce and custody battle. She told police that Alan Smith asked her in October how “someone could make somebody disappear without anyone know-ing.” A few days later the woman received a call from him “ranting and ranting,” and said “I just want her to be done with,” she told detec-tives.

On another night the woman joked that “he could use potassium chlo-

ride into the rectum to kill someone and it would be di� cult to detect.”

“She said that Alan stopped and looked at her for a really long time and she felt he was thinking about it,” the court docu-ments continued.

Other witnesses

Some witnesses de-scribed Alan Smith to detectives as “creepy,” “weird” and “awkward.” Co-workers said that Alan Smith would frequently express his hatred and hostility towards his es-tranged wife. His supervi-sor warned him not to talk about the subject because it was disrupting the work environment.

Other co-workers told investigators that “Alan in-dicated a fear that Susann would attempt to take the two children back to her native Germany,” and that he would do whatever it took to prevent that.

A co-worker who went on a business trip with Alan Smith told detectives that he was very distraught on the trip about his wife recently winning a court ruling. He reportedly told the co-worker that he wanted his wife to

“know the pain I feel.” An examination of

Susann Smith’s cell phone contained a text message sent from Alan Smith on Feb. 12 that said “hi Susi.” Police indicate that at no time did Alan Smith ever

refer to his estranged wife as “Susi” or just text to say “hi” prior to that message.

Susann Smith’s attorney

Susann Smith’s attorney John Ely told police that a� er a recent monetary judgement in their cus-tody battle, the couple was in the hallway discussing the ruling.

“In 15 years of practic-ing family law, Ely does not remember ever seeing a stare by one party to the other in the court house quite like that stare Alan gave Susann,” detectives wrote. Ely said it was “an incredibly menacing stare.”

Ely stated that Susann Smith denied that her husband had ever physi-cally abused her but said that he could be “emo-tionally threatening.” She stated that he would get in her face and confront her.

Ely also said that Alan Smith had accused his estranged wife of sexu-ally abusing their oldest child and then a month later sent Susann Smith an email asking to move back in to the house to “give his children their family back.”

He later rescinded his accusations that she had abused the child and � led a motion that his wife planned to move to her native Germany with the two children. Dur-ing one interaction at the courthouse, Alan Smith called his wife a “monster,” according to court docu-ments.

Bothell contractor charged with theft of sales tax, � ling false tax returns

A Bothell contractor was charged today with stealing nearly $23,000 in sales tax between 2004 and 2010 and covering up the the� by � l-ing fraudulent tax returns.

� e felony charges were � led in Snohomish County Superior Court against Let Me Paint It, Inc., a corpora-tion operated by Timothy S. Strash and Tracy L. Kemp-Strash. � e charges were � led by the Attorney Gen-eral’s O� ce at the request of the Washington State

Department of Revenue.According to charg-

ing papers, the company claimed it had conducted no business from 2004 through 2010, but an audit found that it actually had done nearly $291,000 in work on which it had col-lected but not remitted sales tax.

Strash and Kemp-Strash admitted to auditors that they were at fault for not reporting the sales tax the company collected, but claimed it simply the result of being unorganized.

“We understand we owe what we owe and want to take care of our respon-sibility and put this mess behind us,” they wrote in an email to the Department.

Arraignment on the charges has been set for March 19.

� e maximum penalty for charges � led against a corporation is a $20,000 � ne.

Comment sought on groundwater cleanup for Bothell site

� e Department of Ecol-ogy (Ecology) seeks public comment on a second amendment to an agreed order with the City of Both-ell outlining plans to clean up groundwater contamina-tion at a property acquired by the city acquired by the city for its Bothell Cross-roads State Route 522 realignment project.

� e city plans to realign SR 522 one block to the south to improve � ow for vehicle, pedestrian and bicycle tra� c.

� e two-acre parcel, a former gas station pur-chased by the city in the 1990s, is located at N.E. 180th Street and Woodin-ville Drive.

Tests in 2008 indicated that petroleum contamina-tion remained in soil and dry-cleaning solvents were present in groundwater from o� -property sources. � e city removed contami-nated soil in 2010 under a work plan and an amend-ment to the agreed order approved by Ecology.

Ecology now proposes to approve a plan to install four wells to extract con-taminated groundwater and discharge it into the sanitary sewer. � e city would sample and test the groundwater until solvents remain within state cleanup standards for at least a year.

A public comment period on a second amend-ment to the agreed order,

the cleanup plan, and an environmental determina-tion of non-signi� cance concludes on April 1. Com-ments may be sent to Sunny Becker, Site Manager, Dept. of Ecology, 3190 160th Ave. S.E., Bellevue WA 98008 or [email protected].

Legislators to host town hall meeting

� e three 1st Legislative District lawmakers will host a town hall meeting tomor-row in Bothell. � e meeting will take place from 1-3 p.m. in the multipurpose room of Bothell’s North-shore Senior Center, which is located at 10201 East Riverside Dr.

State Sen. Rosemary McAuli� e, and state Reps. Derek Stanford and Luis Moscoso comprise the 1st Legislative District delega-tion to the 63rd Washington

State Legislature. McAuli� e, Stanford, Moscoso, and the 144 other legislators are al-most halfway through their 2013 session work.

� e primary focus of the meeting will be to discuss state education funding. Recent Washington State Supreme Court rulings on education-funding and tax-bill voting thresholds are certainly the center of attention in Olympia. But the three 1st District legisla-tors have their hands full with plenty of other critical matters.

McAuli� e is the ranking member of the Senate Early Learning and K-12 Educa-tion Committee, while Stanford and Moscoso are a part of state-budget deliberations. Stanford is the vice chair of the House Capital Budget Committee and Moscoso is vice chair of the House Transportation Committee.

Canyon Creek receives grant for “Families” project

Canyon Creek Elementary School received a $1,500 SEPAC (Special Education Parent/Professional Advisory Council) James MacDonald Inclusion Grant to implement its “Families” project. SEPAC presented a check at the school’s March 8 assembly to

members of the sixth-grade leadership team who wrote and submitted the grant.

Facilitated by older students and school sta� members, students across all grade levels form “fami-lies” that meet monthly to participate in activities to promote acceptance and understanding of diversity and individual similarities and di� erences. � e project hopes to create strong bonds of friendship and collabora-tion, to challenge students to work together to build a more positive school climate and to make everyone feel comfort-able with who they are and be a part of the Canyon Creek family.

Leota Junior High School also received a $400 inclusion grant to bring an enhanced version of the WEB (Where Everyone Belongs) pro-gram to its school. WEB is a nationally recognized program that strives to make

all incoming students feel welcome and comfortable.

� e SEPAC James Mac-Donald Inclusion Grant is an annual grant up to $2,000 to a school or schools in the district for projects, programs or events that promote the inclusion of all students, make a positive di� erence in the community, are student-initiated and build leadership in the student body.

SEPAC is an active sup-port and advisory network comprised of parents, profes-sionals and district adminis-trators who work together for the bene� t of special needs students in the Northshore School District.

...young at heart

(NAPSI)—Older Americans should know that while financial abuse is believed to cost seniors an estimated $3 billion annually, you can help prevent it and protect yourself.

Signs to watch for• You, family, friends or your bank

notice financial activity you don’t recall, that is not consistent with your financial history or that is beyond your means.

• Your caregiver or beneficiary refuses to use your funds for necessary care and treatment or is threatening to place you in a long-term care facility unless you give him or her control of your finances.

• It appears that food or medication has been manipulated or withheld so you become weak and compliant.

Steps you can take• If you feel threatened and believe

you are in immediate danger, contact law enforcement.

• Talk with family members, friends and trusted professionals to plan your financial future. If managing your daily finances is difficult, consider engaging a money manager.

• Talk with a lawyer about creating a durable power of attorney for asset management, a revocable or living will, trust and health care advance directives.

• Never send anyone personal infor-mation to collect a prize or reward.

• Don’t be pressured or intimidated

into quick decisions by a salesperson or contractor.

• Don’t sign any documents you don’t completely understand without first talking it over with an attorney or a family member you trust.

• Never provide personal informa-tion (Social Security, credit card, ATM PIN number) over the phone unless you placed the call and know with whom you are speaking.

• Tear up or shred credit card re-ceipts, bank statements, solicitations and financial records before disposing of them.

• If you hire someone to help you in your home, be sure that person has been properly screened, with criminal back-ground checks completed.

• If you suspect you or someone you know is being exploited, call (800) 677-1116 to get connected with the state Adult Protective Services or other appropriate aging resource.

• For more information on financial exploitation, you can request a free brochure from the Eldercare Loca-tor, “Protect Your Pocketbook: Tips to Avoid Financial Exploitation.”

Call (800) 677-1116; the brochure can also be downloaded at www.eldercare.gov.

The Eldercare Locator is a public service of the U.S. Administration on Aging and is administered by the Na-tional Association of Area Agencies on Aging (n4a).

Tips to help you avoid financial exploitation

Financial abuse is believed to cost American seniors an estimated $3 billion annually. CONTRIBUTED

(NAPSI)—For optimal health, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends

that older adults get a minimum of two hours and 30 minutes of mod-erate-intensity aerobic

activity or one hour and 15 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic activity every week. In addition,

muscle-strengthening activities should be con-ducted two or more days a week.

Why exerciseExercise can help

prevent many physical problems and chronic conditions that come with aging, including weight gain, back pain and heart disease.

Plus, it keeps the mind sharp and can help you feel happier, improving symptoms of depression and even dementia.

To gain these bene� ts, however, you need to � nd a � tness program that pro-vides the physical results desired and is enjoyable, too, so you’ll stick to it.

� at’s where the nation’s leading exercise program for older adults comes in.

Healthways Silver-Sneakers Fitness Program o� ers physical and group activities in a comprehen-sive program that provides full access to a health club, senior � tness classes, on-line resources, and social experiences.

“SilverSneakers incor-porates a number of in-teractive and educational events into our programs

because improving overall well-being includes focus-ing on both physical and emotional well-being,” said certi� ed personal trainer Sims McMahon. “� ese events help to cre-ate a sense of community and increase the feeling of belonging many of our members hoped to � nd when joining the pro-gram.”

Research shows that participants enrolled in SilverSneakers for two years have fewer hospital admissions and signi� -

cantly lower overall health care costs.

How to exerciseBefore you begin any

exercise program, McMahon has the following tips:

1. See your doctor, espe-cially if you have a chronic condition.

2. Start slowly. Begin by walking, say, for 10 minutes or so a day. As you gain energy and your body builds stamina, increase your activ-ity levels and make it more challenging.

3. Stay motivated. Have realistic short-term goals you can easily meet.

4. Don’t be intimidated. Remember that everyone had to walk in the door for the � rst time. Don’t let the thought of starting hold you back. You can do it.

Where to exerciseTo make it all easier,

Healthways SilverSneakers Fitness Program is avail-able in 11,000 � tness centers nationwide.

It’s free in most cases because it’s covered through many Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement and group retiree plans.

� e classes are taught by credentialed instructors and focus on older adult-speci� c programming. An online program provides a num-ber of resources, including healthy-living articles and recipes.

Members can also get exercise and nutrition plans and expert advice.

Mediterranean diet and heart health is more than olive oil

and nuts.� e “Mediterranean diet”

has been popular since the 1990s when Harvard did a health presentation based on the diet of Greece and Southern Italy. � is olive oil, toma-to and wine diet is what we now refer to as the Mediter-ranean diet, which many authors have cashed in on with books and kitschy programs.

It popped up again recently a� er another cohort study came out in the New England Journal of Medi-cine. � e study done in Spain followed 7,000-plus people (about half men, half women, ages 55-80) and monitored over the course of around � ve years how many of those people had a “cardiovascular event.” Some ate a Mediterranean diet supplemented with olive oil. Some ate a Mediterranean diet supplemented with nuts. � e others were just advised to lower their fat intake.

In the end, there were a total of 288 cardio events (heart attacks) that occurred out of the 7,000-plus people who were followed.

� e group eating the Mediterranean diet plus nuts had 83 events. � e group eating the diet plus extra virgin olive oil had 96 events. � e group told to lower their fat had 109

events.� ey con� rmed what

other studies had shown and what experts have thought for a while now. Eating a Mediterranean diet lowers your risk of cardio trouble.

Interestingly enough, when a reporter from NPR asked some Spaniards about the study, they agreed – their food is excellent. But, they also said that even more than the types of food they eat, it’s the

climate.� ey put more emphasis

on following the climate, eating foods that grow in season where they are. � ey stated that growing or im-porting food out of season loses nutrient content and that people were originally designed to eat accord-ing to their own climates.

� ey stressed slowing down to enjoy your food, eating locally and getting out in the sunshine and salt water.

For us Seattleites, we may not have the sun and salt wa-ter as much as the Spaniards, but we could do a better job of embracing our climate and eating according to it.

It’s March here in Kirkland. � e weather is cold and the sun is just starting to peek out more o� en. � e ground is starting to warm a bit, tulips are blooming and rain is be-coming less frequent. Ideally for us, we need to eat cauli-� ower, � nish up apple season, enjoy leeks and onions for a couple more months and start looking forward to asparagus, kale, rhubarb and baby spinach that are about to be ready for April.

PCC has a great interactive seasonal produce calendar so you can check out what else is fresh: www.pccnaturalmar-

kets.com/products/produce/inseason/

So eat your tomatoes, dress with your olive oil, pop a few nuts and drink your wine, but don’t forget to stand in the sunshine and remember that foods, like � owers, have a season.

Ashley Besecker is a regis-tered dietitian and certi� ed dietitian who owns Crave Health in Kirkland. For information, call (425) 828-0100 or visit crave-health.com.

The Cedar Park boys basketball team � nished its season at

center court on the � oor of the Sun Dome in Yakima on March 2, hoisting the third place state title trophy high into the air.

Cedar Park head coach Adam Lynch said one of the big things that fueled the team was its chemistry on and o� the court.

“It was a tight-knit group that committed to working hard in the o� -season to get better and enjoyed the time together,” said Lynch. “I don’t think you can underestimate the value of having good team chemis-try and contributing to the overall success of the team.”

� e Eagles defeated Lynden Christian 52-50 to bring home the 1A third-place trophy from the Hardwood Classic.

� e game was a battle for the entire 32 minutes of play as the teams traded leads throughout the game. Cedar Park � nished the � rst eight minutes with a slim one-basket lead, but the Lyncs used a hot sec-ond quarter to take a 27-24 advantage into hal� ime.

� e Eagles cut into that lead during the third period, outscoring Lynden 16-14. But the one-point de� cit loomed large in the extremely close contest.

Cedar Park played smart during the defensive battle known as the fourth quar-ter. � e team outlasted the Lyncs 12-9 during the � nal eight minutes of play to win the game.

Evan Scholten stepped up for the Eagles during their � nal contest of the season. � e senior led the

team in scoring with 21 points and combined with teammate Isaiah Pen-chion to give Cedar Park 14 important rebounds. Scholten was selected as a member of the All-State 1A team and will participate in the 1A/2A All State game March 16 at Curtis High School.

“Evan has had an out-standing high school career and saved his best for last,” said Lynch. “In that � nal game he dominated all phases and was clearly the best player on the court.”

Lynden Christian won the rebound battle 41-31.

Eagle Trey Drechsel � nished the game with 12 points, while teammate Daniel Christenson had nine points.

� e team from Bothell’s defense did a good job of defending the three-point shot, holding the Lyncs to 5-for-22 from beyond the arch.

Cedar Park lost to Toledo, 46-39, on March

1 during the state semi-� nals at the Sun Dome in Yakima.

“� at was a very tough loss for all of us,” said Lynch. “To be that close to playing for the state cham-pionship and not get there was a tough pill to swallow. At the end of the day if a couple possessions go the other way we would have advanced but you have to give Toledo a lot of credit. � ey were a veteran team, very well coached and deserving of winning that game along with the state title the next day.”

“Everyone falls, the question is how quickly do you get back up,” said Lynch. “To play our best game of the season in that last game showed the heart of a champion and is something we talked about a� erwards.”

� e Eagles beat Seattle Academy 61-43 at the Sun Dome in Yakima on Feb. 28

during the � rst round.Cedar Park outscored

their opponents 23-2 dur-ing the third quarter, fol-lowing a hard fought � rst half by both teams.

� e Eagles trailed at hal� ime 28-27 but the team stonewalled the Cardinals during the third quarter.

Seattle found its rhythm during the fourth quarter but it was too late, as the

Eagles also dominated at the free-throw line, 15-6.

Scholten and Luke Sau� erer

made the most of their � rst appearance

at the Hardwood Classic, combining for 37 points for the Eagles.

“One major di� erence was the addition of Luke,” said Lynch. “He transferred from Jackson last year and was denied eligibility by the WIAA … adding him to the mix this year gave us another talented player that really made things go for us out of the point guard

spot.”Cedar Park’s Daniel

Christenson � nished the game with nine rebounds and six points.

Cedar Park dominated the key, outscoring the Car-dinals 28-12 in the paint.

Honors Earning a birth in the

Hardwood Classic State 1A Basketball Tournament was a team goal, but individual honors were also bestowed on the Cedar Park Chris-tian boys team as voted by the head coaches for the Nisqually League.

For winning the Nisqually League with a 15-1 record during the Eagles � rst year in the league, Coach Adam Lynch was recognized as the league’s Coach of the Year. � is is Lynch’s � � h year as head coach for the varsity program.

� e Nisqually League Most Valuable Player honors went to junior Trey

Dreschel, who scored 16 points a game.

Earning � rst-team hon-ors for the second year in a row was senior center Evan Scholten. Luke Sau� erer, senior point guard in his � rst year of varsity eligi-bility at Cedar Park, was awarded with All League Second Team honors.

Despite playing the state tournament games on the other side of the state, Lynch said that the com-munity still came out to support the team.

“Our fans have sup-ported us tremendously all year,” said Lynch. “Our student body came out once again in full force and our community was well represented. It was an honor to represent our school and community at the state tournament.”

Cedar Park � nished the season with a 22-3 record and set a school record with a 19-game winning streak during the regular season.

� e Bothell High School boys basketball team’s sea-son came to an abrupt end during the second day of the state tournament at the Tacoma Dome on March 1 with a furious comeback that ultimately fell short, as the Cougars lost to Newport 65-58.

Bothell trailed 50-39 with two minutes le� in the third quarter but the team was not willing to go down easy. � e Cougars mounted a comeback that saw them whittle the lead down to just three points

with less than a minute to play. But a big shot by Newport’s Miles Fowler, who hit a fadeaway jumper with the shot clock expir-ing, extended the lead to � ve points with less than 40 seconds remaining in the game.

Bothell began the game with the lead. Cougar Josh Martin showed his power, dunking the ball and knocking the hoop o� its base. It took o� cials 15 minutes to get the hoop back on its base. But the layo� seemed to hurt the Cougars as they held an 18-16 lead at the time of the dunk and Newport

began their run. One of the biggest issues

Bothell had during the game was from beyond the three-point line as the team shot a dismal 1-for-15 during the game.

Bothell senior Zach LaVine led the team with 27 points but was 0-for-10 from three-point range. Cougar teammates Perrion Callendret (15 points) and Martin (10 points) both scored in double � gures.

Bothell loses to Garfield

A slow third quarter cost the Cougars a chance

to play for the state title, losing 62-50 to Gar� eld High School on Feb. 28.

“All fairy tales come to an end,” said Bothell se-nior Zach LaVine, who led the team with 16 points.

Both teams played strong defense to begin the game, combining for just 21 � rst-quarter points. But Bothell junior Josh Martin got his team going with a monster rebound and dunk, punctuated with a scream, to � nish the � rst quarter. � at basket sparked an 11-1 run, as the team built a 19-14 lead.

� e teams played bas-

ket-for-basket during the remainder of the half, as Bothell entered the locker room with a 30-26 lead.

� e third quarter was more like a nightmare for Bothell, scoring just three points, all on free-throw shots.

“We just lacked the of-fense,” said LaVine. “We got the ball to the wrong people and needed to play a lot harder.”

Despite the dismal of-fense the Cougars were still in the game, trailing by just six points entering the fourth quarter.

But Bothell continued to struggle from the � oor,

hitting just 6-of-22 shots during the second half.

LaVine tried to wake his teammates, throwing down a vicious dunk with two minutes remaining for his � nal basket.

Bothell began the season ranked No. 1 in the state but lost to Gar� eld three times.

Bothell bounced from state tournament in two games after loss to Newport

Cities send letter to state requesting mitigation for tolling impacts

As the State of Washing-ton considers tolling on the I-90 Bridge across Lake Washington, the May-ors of Bothell, Kenmore, Kirkland, Lake Forest Park and Woodinville, on behalf of their cities, sent a letter to Gov. Jay Inslee, the State and House Transporta-tion Committee Chairs and the Secretary of Transportation requesting mitiga-tion resources to address impacts from regional toll-ing.

Since tolling has been implemented on the SR 520 Bridge, the north end communities of Lake Washington have expe-rienced increased tra� c volumes and congestion on SR 522 and other state and local highways and roads. Yet, the cities have received little to no mitiga-tion funding as a result of the SR 520 tolling impacts.

It is important to high-light that there are four

east-west corridors con-necting the communities surrounding Lake Wash-ington including SR 522, SR 520, I-90 and I-405.

“� e impacts on all corridors must be consid-ered when evaluating and mitigating regional toll-ing,” said Kenmore Mayor David Baker. “Tolling of the I-90 Bridge will very likely result in additional tra� c on SR 522 and other roads and transportation systems here at the north end of the lake.”

� e cities urge the State to review the additional impacts speci� c to our north end cities that would result from the cumulative consequences of regional tolling: tra� c volumes and

congestion, air pollu-tion, noise pollu-tion, transit, safety and parking.

Furthermore, the cities anticipate

mitigation resources from the State of Wash-ington to address impacts from the current regional tolling as well as future regional tolling. Mitigation measures should include pedestrian and vehicle safety improvements, noise improvements, improved transit and transit access, as well as transportation capacity improvements, repairs, replacements, and retro� tting of a� ected transportation structures and systems.

Bothell native An-thony Arena’s � rst love growing up

was always soccer. Dur-ing his 10 years playing for the Redmond Cross� re Premier Soccer Club he had a common dream - to play professionally. Arena ful� lled that dream on Jan. 22 as he was dra� ed by the Houston Dynamo of Major League Soccer (MLS).

“I always thought I was capable of it,” Arena said. “My freshman year of college we had four or � ve guys leave for the MLS. But I knew I had to put in the work.”

But it is not that easy. According to the Univer-sity of Georgia’s Career Information Center, only .08 percent of all U.S. high school players turn pro in soccer.

Arena, 22, knew he had some talent when he earned a scholarship to Wake For-est. But signing to play with the Dynamo was a com-pletely di� erent experience.

“It was always in my plans but when I saw that contract it was a whole di� erent set of emotions,” said Arena, who signed his contract last week. “It is the pinnacle of all my goals.”

Arena’s goals are now career oriented.

“I am just working on making it into a game,” said Arena, who was the 18th player selected in the MLS Supplemental Dra� . “My long-term goal of course is to start a game.”

Arena knows it will be tough to crack the 18-man roster but he has taken the challenge very seriously. He is in the process of moving to Houston.

“I like it a lot down here,” said Arena. “Summers are very hot. I am really excited.”

One of his dreams is to play the Sounders at Cen-tury Link Field.

“I think about it all the time,” said Arena.

� e Dynamo will host the Sounders this season in Houston, so Arena will have time and another goal for next year when his team comes to Seattle.

� e 2009 Inglemoor High School graduate contributes a lot of his suc-cess to his Cross� re coach, Bernie James. He admits that his coach’s tactics were a little controversial.

“He was it for 10 years,” said Arena. “We won state eight times. He found a way to get results. Many people didn’t like the way he went about things but he got results. He is the reason I got to play in college.”

At Wake Forest, Arena played in the Final Four during his freshman year and was voted to the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) All-Freshman Team. His sophomore year was completely di� erent.

“We had a lot of growing pains,” said Arena. “� ere was a lot of leadership put on young guys and we had our � rst losing season in 10 years.”

Despite the struggles he was still named to the Sec-ond Team All-ACC. � en, he spent most of his junior year injured.

His senior year he was healthy and he had a good season, although he says the team underachieved. But his individual play helped his stock with MLS teams.

“My coach told me my

senior year that (MLS) teams were interested,” said Arena, who started 74 of 79 games he played in for the Demon Deacons.

Growing up, Arena fo-cused his time at Cross� re and only played one season at Inglemoor High School, helping to lead the team to the state semi� nals during his sophomore year. His sister also played for the Vikings and graduated in 2004.

He said that he o� en comes back to Bothell and plays in pick-up games. A� er all, his parents Chris and Kristi still live in Both-ell. He said his mother was extremely excited when he signed his contract.

“My mom wanted to call me every day and my

dad was excited too,” said Arena. “I have had a lot of good support.”

For the � rst time in school history the Ing-lemoor girls basketball

team � nished their season as the sixth best team in Washington state. � e Vi-kings ran out of gas during the fourth-place consolation � nal game to Gonzaga Prep, losing 67-59, March 2 at the Tacoma Dome.

But despite the � nal-game loss, the team will reign as the best Inglemoor girls bas-ketball squad to ever walk onto the hardwood.

� e season was a huge success for the Kenmore team. � e Vikings � nished with the best win-loss record in school history at 22-4 and won both the Crest Division regular-season title and the 4A KingCo title for the � rst time.

� e game against Gon-zaga Prep was a close battle leaving the Inglemoor girls hoisting the sixth-place trophy into the air. During the game, the Vikings never let the Bullpups get too far ahead.

� e � rst quarter, like many of the state tourna-ment games for Inglemoor, was a low scoring a� air. � e

two teams combined for 13 points.

“� e � nal eight teams don’t get there if they can’t play defense,” said Ing-lemoor head coach John Augustavo. “� e nerves were also a role. It’s a pretty big stage with bright lights and a lot of seats.”

Both teams got rolling during the second quarter, with Gonzaga taking a slim 25-21 lead. Prep seemed to be just out ahead of Inglemoor during the entire game, extending the lead by just three during the third quarter.

Inglemoor � nally out-scored the Bullpups

during the fourth quarter but it wasn’t enough to mount a comeback.

� e Vikings stayed in the game by shoot-

ing well from beyond the three-point arch. As a team, Inglemoor was 9-for-15, with Alex Hagen hitting 4-of-5. Hagen and Kelly Conroy led the Vikings with 16 points each.

Despite the strong three-point shooting, the Vikings only shot 26 percent from the � oor while the Bullpups hit 52 percent of their shots.

“� e girls were tired,” said Augustavo. “� ree games in three days and playing your

heart out in each game will de� nitely wear you down. We also missed a lot of easy shots.”

Deja Strother � nished with 12 points during just 13 minutes on the � oor, while Chalayia Fuller led the team with eight rebounds.

“Deja played well in the tournament in spurts,” said Augustavo. “She seemed to be a magnet for any call that was in her area whether it was on her or not and that limited her playing time and really hamstrung us as a team.”

Strother was in foul trou-ble during the games against Prep and Mount Rainier.

But she showed what she is capable of against Skyline.

Inglemoor beats Skyline again

Inglemoor guaranteed itself of placing at state on March 1 with a 44-34 vic-tory against Skyline. � e win may have been inspired by Fuller’s speech.

“Prior to the game against Skyline I simply wrote on the whiteboard: Who wants it more,” said Augustavo. “No talk, no plays, just who wants it more. � e girls responded. Chay Fuller also gave one of the most incredible talks a� er the loss

to Mount Rainier that I can ever remember. � at kept us focused.”

Against the Spartans, Ing-lemoor’s Strother dominated with 18 points, 12 rebounds and three blocked shots. Strother was 7-of-11 from the � oor.

It was the third time this season the Vikings have defeated Skyline. � e last time the two teams met, Ing-lemoor took the 4A KingCo tournament title from the Spartans.

Loss to the RamsInglemoor began the

tournament with a loss to

Mount Rainier, 61-56, late on Feb. 28. � e Vikings fell behind early 18-11 at the end of the � rst quarter but turned a 31-21 hal� ime de� -cit into a tie game by scoring 22 third-quarter points.

But the Rams used a 20-12 free-throw advantage to build a slim lead and win the game.

Julia Haining led the Vikings with 19 points.

But Inglemoor could not � nd an answer for Mount Rainier’s Birttany McPhee, who led all scorers with 28 points. McPhee scored half her points from the free-throw line, shooting 14-of-15. She also � nished with 14 defensive rebounds.

Despite having the best season in school history, Augustavo thinks that this run is a long way from being over.

“We return nine players for next year,” said the coach. “Nine players that have won the KingCo title and played at state. � ey will be ready to go come November. As far as the seniors go, I couldn’t be more proud of them and their e� orts. � ey led a young group of kids into every game and taught them how to win.
