ST. PAUL — St. Paul High School junior Grant Smith was honored by the Army National Guard Tuesday morning and presented with an engraved bugle for his dedication to playing Taps, a bugle call of the U.S. Army, at military funerals.

Smith has been playing Taps at military funerals since eighth grade, and travels around the state to play the call.

“This ritual is being performed over 1,000 times a day for all of our fallen vet-erans of previous wars,” said presenter of the engraved bugle, First Sergeant Richard Haney. “Unfortunately, over 700 of these rituals listen to Taps from a recording on the radio.”

The USD 413 Chanute School Board’s agenda Tuesday night included several tasks that would wrap up the school year as there is only the June meeting left before Superintendent Steve Parsons and Assistant Superin-tendent Kathryn Taylor retire from their respective positions.

Parsons gave his annual report with three major things he want-ed to point out to the board. The first was an announcement

that Royster Middle School had been named an exemplary middle school by the Kansas Association for Middle School Administrators (KAMSA).

There were three parts to the application for the new award.

The first part was an overall synopsis of the school, the sec-ond was evidence of continual effort to improve, and the third was evidence of new programs.

“I was kind of shooting in the dark, so we didn’t have a lot to go by, but I anticipate that we will try that again and probably

even move up the ladder a little bit,” RMS Principal Brad Miner said. “I was excited about this, but I’m also a little bit disap-pointed because I wanted us to have the middle school of the year award. I think we do have the middle school of the year. So, we’ll keep striving for that I guess.”

Miner also noted that RMS was named a high performing school at the gold level for the third year in a row, which is a recognition based on State Assessment scores.

Parsons also announced that the Chanute High School stu-dent publication, the Comet, had been awarded the All-Kan-sas award for the third year in a row. The award is based on three different newspaper editions that each high school sends in and is judged on visu-als, design, writing, leadership and news coverage.

Journalism advisor Dustin Fox was present during the meeting, along with CHS Prin-cipal Kent Wire.

“This year we were one of

14 schools in the entire state that got the All-Kansas award, third year in a row, which is awesome,” Fox said. “This Saturday, we’re going to State Journalism. We qualified 30 of our 35 entries through regional to state, that’s the most in Class 4A, so we hope to win a state title this weekend.”

The third point Parsons brought up was regarding what he called “Fine Arts Week.” Chanute Public Schools held a

Gov. Brownback touring drought zone

TOPEKA (AP) — Parts of Kansas have received less than half the rainfall they would in a normal year, elevating the risk of wildfires and poor wheat crops, a state climatologist says.

Gov. Sam Brownback was traveling to those regions Wednesday to see the effects of the drought on crops, pastures and communities. The visit fol-lows Brownback’s request last week to the U.S. Department of Agriculture to declare 21 coun-ties a disaster area and trigger federal assistance.

Mary Knapp, state climatolo-gist at Kansas State University, said parts of southwest Kan-sas haven’t receive significant rainfall since the summer of 2010, creating dire conditions for wheat and other crops.

“We don’t get too excited about having a dry period in our winter months, because don’t get a lot of our moisture in the winter,” Knapp said. “But when you get half of nothing, it does get to be a critical thing.”

District builds tornado-resistant facility

FOWLER (AP) — A southwest Kansas school district has a new multipurpose building designed to resist the power of tornadoes.

The Fowler district scheduled an open house Wednesday at what’s called a tornado-resistant monolithic dome.

The steel-reinforced, concrete building will house a computer lab, band room, gym and locker rooms — and serve as a commu-nity disaster shelter.

Fowler is located about 50 miles southwest of Greensburg — the Kansas town that was flattened on May 4, 2007, by an EF5 tornado that killed 13 people.

Fowler voters approved a $1.94 million bond issue in 2008 to fund the dome’s construction. The project also received a $345,000 grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

Sunday, May 1 kicked off the first “Put Up or Shut Up BBQ Faceoff” for Neosho County’s Relay For Life. This event was cre-ated and hosted by Carrie LaRue and Steve Cunningham as a way to help raise funds for the local Relay For Life. Six of the Relay teams participated this year, bringing their best BBQ meats and sides to compete.

The public was invited to come taste the delicious fare and cast their votes for a $5 donation. The day was a great success netting $603 for Relay’s fight against cancer.

Winners taking honors were: Rex Babcock for his BBQ chick-

en, Brad LaRue for his smoked brisket, and Mike Audiss for his pulled pork. Participating teams in this year’s Faceoff included St. Patrick Church, First Christian Church, Angels Among Us, People Against Cancer, High Prairie UMC and First Baptist Church.

Relay coordinators cogratulate all on a job well done and offer a special thank you to Carrie and Steve for pulling it all together. Also, thanks to First Christian Church for hosting this inaugural event.

Next year’s Faceoff will be the first Sunday in May. Mark your calendars. You won’t want to miss it.

A live performance of Taps is a meaningful gesture to the families of the fallen soldiers. Of all the military bugle calls, none is so easily recognized or more apt to evoke emotion than the call of Taps, explained Haney.

Smith was saluted by the 11 members of the Army National Guard in attendance as students of St. Paul High School and Grade School looked on.

Principal Mark LaTurner said it was wonderful to be able to have a presentation for Smith’s selfless service.

“He does some great things for other people, which is the very definition of selflessness,” said LaTurner.

Smith was given a hand-made shadow box including an engraved bugle along with a medal that has the seven Army core values. Sgt. Haney spoke about how Smith is an example of each of the seven core val-ues.

“I didn’t know it was going to be this big,” said Smith. “I just thought they were going to have high school students. I was a little surprised. It makes me feel

pretty special.”One man was instrumental in

getting Smith involved in play-ing Taps at military funerals. Richard McAtee is the Ameri-can Legion commander in St. Paul, and after Smith played Taps at a Veterans Day program one year McAtee began calling him to play wherever it was needed.

“If if wasn’t for Richard McAtee Grant wouldn’t be here today, because he does a lot of work making sure that they are honored the way they should be,” said Grant’s father, Keith Smith.

Although joining the Army is not currently in Smith’s plans, he said that could always change. But regardless of whether or not he wears the uni-form, Sgt. Haney assured him he will always be considered a brother to members of the Army National Guard.

“It has been a life chang-ing experience for him,” said Grant’s mother, Becky Smith. “Grant always says if Richard calls, he will go, because it is an honor.”

“Last week we could call fine arts week and have four examples of the outstanding programs that we have going on in that area in our district, so it was really, really good. We do more things than play ball and take assessment tests. Fine arts week was just a pretty cool week,” Parsons said.

“There’s a niche for every stu-dent,” School Board President Kelli Thomen echoed. “They don’t have to be fast or throw a ball, though we like that, it excites us when they do, but there’s something for everyone. If they wish to get involved, there’s a place.”

Dr. Di Watkins, newly named associate superintendent, pre-sented a report on the Kansas State Department of Education Integrated Improvement Plan for Districts that has been in the works during this school year.

The plan focuses on improv-ing achievements for all stu-dents in the reading and math-ematic fields, using specific strategies to address students who perform inadequately.

The plan has a course of action to encourage schools including ANW Coop to com-municate more effectively for the common interest of the students, increasing the use of research-based teaching prac-tices in schools.

“We’ve spent the entire year and really toward the end of last year preparing for our smart goals and our plan and tonight I brought those for you to just take a look at,” Watkins said, “kind of a synopsis of where we are with regard to those smart goals. Everybody in our system in some way or another has been involved in this process.”

Watkins also explained the relationship that ANW Coop will have within this process and the necessity for the orga-nization to cooperate to ensure that all students are getting the proper assistance they need.

Watkins also told the board how she has been in communica-tion with Dr. James Hardy, who will take over as superintendent upon Parsons’ retirement before the 2011-2012 school year.

“I wrote the longest email I have ever written and I have written some pretty long emails. I wanted to share with you that Dr. Hardy and I have been in numerous conversations on a variety of the exciting things for our system and I just wanted

you to know that we are visit-ing about everything from our August inservice to the profes-sional learning opportunities, our administrative district lead-ership team meetings, just our areas of strength and our areas where we would like to see growth in our system. He has been wonderful to work with, as have our district administra-tors,” Watkins shared.

“It is extremely important to Dr. Hardy and myself that this system has a seamless transi-tion from one administration to the next.”

After Watkins’ report, the board swore in the new mem-bers who will be joining the ranks for the 2011-2012 school year, Sean Bowman, Brad LaRue, and standing members Kelli Thomen and Ross Hen-drickson. The members took the oath before returning to the regular meeting.

In old business, the board voted to pass revisions for the district and school handbook.

In new business, the board, under the advice of Parsons, decided to maintain mem-bership fees with the Kansas Association of School Boards at $10,479, as well as main-taining the Legal Assistant Fund Membership at a fee of $1,400, which will allow the board to consult with legal advi-sors. Other issues on the agenda included voting on which com-pany to purchase toner and ink cartridges from throughout the year, Academic Supplier, the company USD 413 used during this school year, approving the fundraiser list for the 2011-2012 school year, and decided to sell the surplus sheds from Lincoln Early Learning Center to Orville Walker and Tom Ehmke, who were the highest bidders in the silent auction.

USD 413: Continued from Page 1Appeals court sides with Jehovah’s Witness

TOPEKA (AP) — The Kansas Court of Appeals on Wednesday ruled that a state agency vio-lated the constitutional rights of a Jehovah’s Witness when it denied authorization for her to travel to a different state to have a liver transplant paid for by Kansas Medicaid funds.

Mary Stinemetz, 64, of Hill City has end-stage liver disease and needs a transplant. But her religion forbids whole blood transfusions, and there are no hospitals in Kansas that perform bloodless transplants.

The Kansas Health Policy Authority denied authorization for Stinemetz to have such a transplant in Nebraska and have it paid for by the Kansas Med-icaid fund.

A lawyer for KHPA said it didn’t deny permission because of the woman’s religious beliefs, but because of the distance from Kansas where the procedure would be performed.

The appeals court said that’s not a good enough reason to deny her request.

“The available evidence indi-cates that the bloodless tech-nique is less expensive than a procedure involving blood transfusions,” Judge Thomas Malone wrote in the three-judge panel’s unanimous ruling.

A little boy forgot his lines in a Sunday school presentation. His mother was in the front row to prompt him. She gestured and formed the words silently with her lips, but it did not help. Her son’s memory was blank. Finally, she leaned forward and whispered the cue, “I am the light of the world.” The child beamed and with great feeling and a loud clear voice said, “My mother is the light of the world.” - Bits and Pieces, 1989

Moms do light up the world. And they pass their light on.

I miss mom.Mom was a pray-er. Sometimes

a bit of a worrier, but I find worri-ers make the most persistent pray-ers. With two boys mom had a lot on her prayer list.

Before I was born mom prayed that I would serve God. Specifi-cally, as a pastor. I never knew about that prayer until I was well established in my pastoral minis-try.

But, as I think back, mom always had this knowing smile when, as a kid, I talked about my future.

She knew something I didn’t know.

I mentioned mom was some-

thing of a worrier. She had good reasons. When I was four, mom gave birth to my brother. My buddy down the street, who was four, also had a baby brother.

One day we decided to go to the zoo. Not to trouble our moth-ers, we took off on our own little zoo adventure. (Never mind that our hometown, Oswego, did not have a zoo.)

Only now can I imagine the panic of two young mothers whose four year olds wandered from home. Lots of people pan-icked. When we couldn’t find the zoo we went downtown, where we were found having a “coffee break.”

Mom had reason to pray.Mom was also my first finan-

cial teacher. She taught me to use the envelope system. Long before Dave Ramsey, mom had already invented the envelope system of budgeting.

The envelope system works by putting money for various items in labeled envelopes. When your envelope is empty you are done until the next allowance. And you don’t trans-fer money from one envelope to another.

One day I learned I could stretch my school supply budget by telling the teacher I was too poor to buy paper. That lasted a while until my teacher visited mom. Mom quickly straightened out her young miserly son.

Mom was a great cook. Grow-ing up we had desert after every meal, usually a pie. Coconut or banana cream was dad’s favorite. My brother was fond of cherry pie. And I liked it all. Just bring it on. And mom did.

I miss mom.But I have a feeling that she is

cleaning up what will be my cor-ner of heaven. And I can almost smell the cherry pie now.

Love you, mom.“Many women do noble things

but you surpass them all …a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.” Proverbs 31:29-30

Sunday sermons Residents rally to save small church

TOPEKA (AP) — Donations from Topeka-area residents apparently will help a small church avoid closing over a dis-pute with the city about its park-ing lot. The city had ordered Christian Lord Ministries to pave its small parking lot by June 30 or close. The church gives away food, clothing and furniture from its small build-ing. The cost of paving the lot to city specifications was esti-mated at $7,000. Donations., about $2,000, started arriving after a story ran on April 18.

What Is a Prophet?The concept of the prophet has changed considerably over the millennia. Prophets are usually thought of in the popular imagination as mouthpieces of God, people like Moses who spoke to God face to face and then delivered His message. Apart from Moses, however, Israel’s prophets were usually not depicted as having actually seen God. The later Old Testament prophets, such as Isaiah and Hosea, are not just messengers of God, but also great symbolic portrayers of God’s relationship to Israel. Consider how God directs Hosea to marry the harlot Gomer to symbolize Israel’s faithlessness to God. After Old Testament times, it is tempting to think that there are no more prophets, or that after Jesus, somehow there is nothing left for God to reveal. But, Paul speaks of those who have the gift of prophecy on numerous occasions, and so it is clear that at least until the time shortly after Jesus’ death, there were prophets and prophecies. But even if God has revealed his essential message completely, the world continues to change, and so, changing circumstances require prophets who can apply the word of God to current circumstances. God does not change, but since the world changes, we need to adjust his message to fit our world.

For I desire steadfast loveand not sacrifice,the knowledge of God, rather than burnt offerings. R.S.V. Hosea 6:6

CHANUTE HIGH SCHOOL TENNIS

REGIONAL MEET IS HEREJason PeakeTribune Sports Editor

The second season is here for the Cha-nute High School boys tennis team.

The Blue Comets will compete at the Independence Class 4A Regional today.

The tourney begins at 10 a.m. at Indepen-dence’s Riverside Park tennis complex.

Those who are still alive will come back on Friday. The action begins at 10 a.m. on Friday, as well.

The top six in singles and the top six doubles teams at the regional advance to the Class 4A State Tournament.

Ian Cheshier and Jian Abbuehl will both compete in the singles bracket for Cha-nute.

“I think our singles players will fare real

well,” Chanute Coach Wayne Woodyard said. “They’ve impressed me at the last few meets. I think Ian has the best chance to advance to state. Jian could advance if he plays his best tennis of the year.”

Cheshier finished third at number-one singles at the SEK League Meet last week.

Cheshier missed out on state last year, but has a great chance to advance this year, Woodyard said.

“He’s got to stay healthy and he’s got to be ready to go,” Woodyard said. “If he’s at his best, he can compete with anyone.”

Cheshier is now 16-4 on the season, while Abbuehl is 8-6.

Playing doubles for the Blue Comets at the regional will be Brett Perez and Jef-ferson Holmes and Alex Thomen and Har-rison Johnson.

The duo of Perez and Holmes are now 7-5 on the season.

Thomen and Johnson just became a dou-bles team. Tyler Dillow is no longer occu-pying a varsity doubles position.

Hale back in action for CHS golf team

Tribune staff

COFFEYVILLE — Mitch-ell Hale’s first outing of the season propelled the Chanute High School golf team to a third place finish at the Field Kindley Invitational on Tues-day.

A senior, Hale finished second overall with a 77. It was Hale’s first tournament of the season after recov-ering from a hand injury he suffered at the end of the basket-ball season.

“It was really nice to have Mitch-ell back,” Chanute Coach Bill Woodard said. “It took a lot of pressure off our other kids. He was glad to be back out there. He played pretty well, but he can still play better.”

Chanute senior Skyler Miner finished seventh over-all with an 82.

“Skyler putted the ball much better than he has recently,” Woodard said. “And that’s a good sign at this time of the season.”

Also for Chanute, Brady Roush was 18th with an 89, while Austin Rickabaugh took 29th place with a score of 92. Jerry Whitworth fin-ished 33rd with a 93 and Caleb Dietsch was 35th with a 94.

Luke Vacca of Coffeyville took first place on his home course with a 75. Hale of Cha-nute was two strokes back.

Coffeyville won the team title with a score of 332.

“This course was a lot tougher than the other courses we’ve been playing,” Wood-

Panthers fall to Crowder in regular

season finale

Jason Peake Tribune Sports Editor

CHANUTE — The Neosho County Community College baseball team ended the regu-lar season with a 2-1 loss to Crowder College on Tuesday at Hudson Field.

“They threw their number-one guy and he was really good,” NCCC Coach Steve Murry said. “Give them cred-it, but I don’t think our guys were into the game. And it showed.”

Nick Doughty’s home run accounted for the only run of the game for the Panthers.

The offense struggled, as the host Panthers had only two hits in nine innings.

The Panthers end the regu-lar season with a record of 43-12.

Neosho County led 1-0 after Doughty’s blast in the second. But Crowder scored twice in the fifth on three hits.

The Panthers failed to score the rest of the way. Jon Furlong took the loss on the mound for NCCC.

Crowder’s Mike Sisco got the win. He struck out 11 and allowed just two hits and three walks.

The Panthers host a super-regional this weekend at Hud-son Field.

Neosho County takes on Pratt at 12:30 p.m. on Satur-day. Saturday’s first game will feature Barton vs. Johnson County at 9:30 a.m. Games will continue on Sunday and Monday.

Dear Amy: My oldest son is in a difficult situation. He has been married for seven years and has two children. The oldest child has many health and neurological issues. My son’s job often requires that he travel, and for the last year he has worked out of town during the week.

He is home every weekend, and is engaged in the household and child care.

His wife is a wonderful teacher and has many productive ideas regarding teaching this challenging child, but the problems lie in the disciplining. As we see it, our son can’t do anything right. She constantly degrades him and undermines his attempts to discipline this boy.

He is at a loss, especially because she is the professional and very intelligent, and he is a mere dad. I know that she is overwhelmed, as we all are.

We also know that we can only observe and help out when and where we can. My husband and I (and her folks) help her almost daily.

We love our son, daughter-in-law and our precious grandchildren so much, and just hope that you have some advice for us? — Worried

Dear Worried: One parent should not degrade the other — and certainly never in front of the children.

When your daughter-in-law does this, it diminishes his standing with the kids and also creates anxiety for all of them.

Your disabled grandson needs stability and discipline so that

he can interact in the wider world to his fullest capacity.

The younger child is also profoundly affected by his brother’s health problems, the challenges at home and the tension between his parents.

The only person who can alter this dynamic is your son, and he is either too overwhelmed or feels too guilty to push back.

The most you can do is to suggest to your son that his child’s physician might recommend a professional who could come to the house, assess their teaching and discipline techniques and give all of you some helpful suggestions.

Dear Amy: I wrote to you about my career change and signed my letter “Happy Cabbie.”

I am a mom who, because of pressure from my family, stopped being a cab driver and took a job as a caregiver for elderly people.

I sounded pompous and rude in my letter, and you were nice in your response. You got some heat from other readers for your suggestions, though.

When I wrote the letter I was going through a bad patch. I just felt bad — except for when I was driving that cab! Then I felt free and in charge of myself. I hadn’t felt that way in years and I enjoyed it.

Anyway, they tell me at my current job that I am an excellent companion and my clients seem to really like me.

I took your advice to pour my positive energy into my work with my clients and I keep them hopping. We have a lot of fun and go a lot of places.

Oh, and one more thing: When you’re a companion, your client always “leaves on you” one way or another. Either they pass away or you get another client, and I really get torn up over goodbyes.

When you drive a cab, they’re supposed to get out. — Happy Cabbie

Dear Cabbie: I often wonder (and people often ask me) what becomes of the people who write to me. Thank you for getting in touch.

Care giving is a high calling. Unlike driving a cab, the goodbyes are forever and the tips nonexistent, but you are making a real difference in the lives of the people you assist.

Dear Amy: I disagree on the matter of prospective guests asking who else will be present before accepting an invitation.

I believe a good hostess will tell the person something about the guest list immediately upon inviting her. The hostess might say, “We’re having the Smiths and are asking the Joneses and probably another couple.” — William

Dear William: According to “Frustrated Friend,” this prospective guest routinely asked who else was coming before accepting an invitation. I agreed that this seemed rude, though I agree with your recommendation for how polite hosts handle this.

ComicsThe Chanute Tribune Thursday, May 5, 2011 Page �

Caring for challenging child proves stressful

Dear Heloise: I use the perfume samples in magazines for bookmarks. I cut down the length of the page about 1/2 inch from the edge of the flap for the scent. Then I cut them in half across the middle. They are about the size of a bookmark. You always have a nice scent while reading, and if the book has a musty odor, you can open the sample a little bit at a time to release more of the nice smell. — Marilyn from Wisconsin

This is a lovely idea, but please note: Don’t use in valuable, antique or collectible books, and don’t put them in library books. Others checking out the book after you may have allergies. — Heloise

Dear Heloise: My high-school best friend and I live 300 miles apart. For birthdays, we got tired of sending the same gift certificates back and forth, so now we give each other something else — “permission.” For her birthday, she got to take a female friend to lunch, and for mine, I got to hang out in a giant bookstore for at least three hours. The keys are: Choose something your friend enjoys but never takes time for and that costs about as much as you’d spend on each other. Think of something different each year. This idea turns guilty pleasures into happy obligations. — Lynn F. in Addison, Pa.

Love this hint! — HeloiseDear Heloise: In addition to the

college kits suggested by a reader (first-aid kit, sewing kit, address book), we also sent each of our daughters to college with a small tool kit, including such basics as a small hammer, pliers, screwdrivers, nails, glue, small level, etc. They probably were the only ones on their dorm floors with such kits, and they met many other students (including boys!) because of it. They are both on their own now, and we’ve since enlarged their boxes and supplies through the years. — Kristine, Prescott, Ariz.

Kristine, thanks for the reminder that a tool kit is a valuable item for all college students. — Heloise

Dear Heloise: We buy bottled water in the 24-count carton/package. When storing them in the refrigerator, they tend to fall over if sitting upright. We have devised a way to store eight bottles at a time, and they do not fall over. We use a 12-count empty beverage soda carton. The bottles are placed in the carton lying on their sides, end to end, and are placed on the shelf in the refrigerator toward the side wall. — Jimmy and Sandy McDonie, via email

Dear Heloise: Regarding the hint in the Houston Chronicle about scraping fingernails over a bar of soap before gardening: May I just add that one should always wear gloves when gardening? There are many harmful bacteria in any soil. Thanks. — Joy Jenkins, Kenney, Texas

Bosh claims in a lawsuit filed Monday in Los Angeles federal court that Allison Mathis and Shed Media are trying to unjustly enrich themselves by using Bosh’s name and intruding into his private affairs.

He acknowledges he and Mathis have a child together.The suit says Mathis was hired to appear in the third sea-

son of the VH1 reality show and wants to use it to become a TV star. Bosh seeks damages and an injunction to block her and the media company from trademark infringement by using his name and disclosing private facts about his life.

Bulls’ Rose is NBA MVP LINCOLNSHIRE, Ill. (AP) —

Right from the start, Derrick Rose wondered why he couldn’t be the MVP. It turns out, nothing was stop-ping him.

Rose officially became the NBA’s youngest MVP on Tuesday and joined Michael Jordan as the only Bulls players to win the award.

The news was hardly a surprise after Rose had a spectacular season in lead-ing Chicago to the league’s best record

Rose has a ways to go before he catches Jordan, who won five MVPs and led the way to two title three-peats, but he sure is off to a good start. In his third year, the dynamic point guard led the Bulls to their best season since the cham-pionship era.

The 22-year-old Rose got 113 first-place votes from a panel of media voters. Orlando’s Dwight Howard finished second, Miami’s LeBron James was third, the Lak-ers’ Kobe Bryant was fourth and Oklahoma City star Kevin Durant finished fifth. A product of Chica-go’s South Side, Rose established himself as one of the top players in

the league after going from Rookie of the Year to an All-Star in his first two seasons. He took another step this year with one of the best all-

around performances by a point guard.

He averaged 25 points and 7.7 assists while lead-ing Chicago into conten-tion for its first champion-ship since the Jordan-Scot-tie Pippen era. For all the groaning over the Bulls missing out on James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh in free agency, they

did quite well for themselves any-way. Looking for more after back-to-back 41-win seasons and first-round playoff exits, they fired coach Vinny Del Negro and replaced him with Tom Thibodeau. Then, they landed Carlos Boozer and support-ing players like Kyle Korver, giving the Bulls the inside scoring pres-ence they were lacking and one of the deepest rotations.

It all added up to this — a 62-20 record and homecourt advantage throughout the playoffs. They advanced past the first round for just the second time since the championship era.

As far as both doubles teams, Woodyard said they’ll need to limit mistakes and play consistently.

“They’ve got a chance, but they’ll have to play really well,” Woodyard said. “It will take a better than aver-age performance.”

Cheshier went 3-0 at num-ber-one singles and took first place. In pool play, Cheshier defeated Douglass’

Tyler Payton 8-0 and then topped Neodesha’s Daxton Pruter 8-3. In the title match, Cheshier beat Indy’s Aidan Goodrich 8-3.

Abbuehl went 3-0 at num-ber-two singles. Abbuehl defeated Caleb Gravesen of Douglass 8-0 and topped Keaton Kaufman of Neodesha 8-2 in pool play. In the title match, Abbuehl beat Indy’s Bre-man Gordon 8-3.

CHS softball: Blue Comets fall at LCHSTribune staff

ALTAMONT — The Labette County High School softball team stayed per-fect in the SEK League with two wins over Chanute on Tuesday.

The Grizzlies defeated the Blue Com-ets 2-1 in the first game and then won the second game 11-0.

“Hopefully we can build off the good things we accomplished in game one and finish the last four games of the regular season well and head into sub-state on a high note,” Chanute Coach Don Simmons said.

Chanute falls to 6-10 overall and 6-6 in the SEK League.

In the first game, Chanute scored once in the sixth. Amy Weilert singled, Taylor Gard bunted her over to second. Weilert stole third and scored on a wild throw.

Labette County responded in the bot-tom of the seventh.

Allie Reynolds led off the inning with a home run. Labette County later scored the game-winning run on a Chanute error.

Gard took the loss, but pitched well, Sim-mons said.

“Gard pitched an out-standing game against the best team in SEK,” Simmons said. “It was really a great game.”

Gard struck out six in the loss and allowed seven hits.

Chanute had just three hits in the game, Weilert had two and Shelby Trout had one.

“The first game was one of the best games of the year,” Simmons said. “It was a shame either team had to lose. Labette County has been run-ruling most of the teams in the SEK,

so Gard holding them to two runs was outstanding.”

In the second game, LCHS scored five runs in the second and six more in the third. The game ended when the Comets failed to score in the fifth.

“They pitched the same girl again, Allie Reynolds, who is the best pitcher in the SEK,” Simmons said. “We had problems hitting her.”

The Comets stranded five base run-ners, including leaving the bases loaded in the third inning.

Taylor Bailey took the loss. Weilert had two hits, while Madison

Lester and Mackenzey Sutcliffe had one apiece for the Comets in game two.

Weilert went four-for-six on the night.

Labette’s Reynolds was stellar, as well. Reynolds struck out 15 Comets in game one and 11 in game two.

Labette County improved to 15-1 overall and 12-0 in the SEK.

ard noted. “It was a good day and a good tournament. I was pleased. This is the time of year where you need to play well on tough courses. And everything we do is geared towards being at your best at the end of the season.”

NOTES: The Comets are at Winfield today and then host an invite on Monday at Quarry Stone at 1 p.m. That meet will be the last SEK League tourney of the season.

After three league-designated tourneys, Indy is in first place and Pittsburg is a close second.
