All three school levies passing in Issaquah Bond measure in LWSD failing
Signs in Klahanie illustrate the two very opposite views in this contentious issue.

TOO CLOSE TO CALL Just one vote separates the two sides
BY LINDA BALL LBALL@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM
Tuesday’s election to decide the annexation of Klahanie to Issaquah may not be decided until the election is certified Feb. 25, or later. Late returns as of Wednesday (The Reporter’s deadline) show almost a dead heat among voters with 1,365 votes in favor of annexation and 1,364 votes against. In percentages, that’s 50.02 v. 49.98. “There were people on both sides,” said Mark Seely of Klahanie Choice. “I think it might have something to do with people not understanding the issues, and some people wanting to be part of Issaquah. I told (Issaquah Mayor) Fred Butler, if it goes to Issaquah, then we’re part of Issaquah.” Maybe not. Even if a simple majority of Klahanie residents vote to join Issaquah, it would take a 60 percent “yes” vote for residents to agree to assume Issaquah’s indebtedness. Issaquah still could move forward with the annexation, but Butler said that would be a City Council policy decision. “We’ll have to look at the financial impact to the city,” Butler said.
The City Council may accept the annexation – without the assumption of indebtedness – according to a statement released by the city Wednesday. Senate Bill 6487, introduced by Sen. Andy Hill, will not be moving forward after getting the financial information and having a public discussion, according to his office. If the bill had gone through, Issaquah would have lost a state sales tax subsidy if Klahanie does become part of Issaquah. Former Issaquah City Councilmember Mark Mullet, who is now a state senator for the 5th Legislative District, felt mixed messages from Sammamish played a part in the close vote. “I’m really disappointed in Sammamish,” Mullet said. “I just feel like they’re (Klahanie) going to be stuck in the middle paying higher taxes forever.” This is the second attempt at annexation of the Klahanie potential annexation area by the city of Issaquah. In 2005, the ballot was split into two parts — one asking if voters wanted to annex, and another question asking voters if they agreed to assume Issaquah’s indebtedness. Voters said “no” to the latter. This time it was one
question — to annex or not. This latest attempt started over a year ago, beginning with a study paid for by the city, and a citizens task force revisiting the issue in Jan. 2013. The city of Sammamish would like to be next in line to annex the Klahanie PAA, passing a resolution Jan. 7 to fast-track the annexation and merging process if this annexation doesn’t go through. Sammamish City Councilmember Don Gerend previously told The Reporter that if Issaquah does not release the PAA from its comprehensive plan, should it choose not to annex now, the citizens of Sammamish and King County can go to the King County Boundary Review Board and the Growth Management Planning Council and ask them to release it. On another ballot measure, Mullet said he was pleased with the outcome of the vote not to overturn the plastic bag ban in Issaquah, which was a bill he introduced when he was on the City Council. The ban on plastic bags, it would appear, will stand, with 3,305 voters or 48.05 percent voting to overturn the ban, and
“We’ll have to look at the financial impact to the city.” – Mayor Fred Butler 3,573 or 51.95 percent voting to keep the bag ban in place. “I think the lead will hold,” Mullet said. “The repeal effort failed because people are not replacing plastic bags with paper bags, they’re bringing their own.” Mullet said he wasn’t surprised that the bag ban was challenged because the plastic bag industry is losing money. He said people have adjusted to bringing their own bags, and that there has been an 85 percent drop in people using paper bags. Staff writer Linda Ball can be reached at 425-391-0363
Voters showed their faith in the Issaquah School District by supporting all three levies on the Feb. 11 ballot. In the Lake Washington School District, voters gave their OK to two levies, but a $755 million bond measure was falling short of a needed 60 percent “yes” vote. Levies need a 50 percent plus one vote majority for approval; bonds need a supermajority 60 percent “yes” vote. Issaquah’s maintenance and operations levy, the largest of the three, received 13,935 votes by Wednesday’s returns, or 68.99 percent in favor. A total of 6,264 votes, or 31.01 percent, were against the levy. The district’s capital projects levy, which funds technology and critical repairs, had 13,835 votes, or 70.02 percent in favor and 5,925 or 29.98 percent voting no. A one-year transportation levy for $1.7 million to replace 71 aging buses, received 13,537 or 70.59 percent in favor, and 5,639 or 29.41 percent voting “no.” All three issues are replacement levies.

Skyline grad contributes to Macklemore’s Grammywinning album, ‘The Heist’
The Teaching’s Jeremy Jones, percussionist, Josh Rawlings, keyboardist, and Evan Flory-Barnes, bassist, at the Grammys. The Teaching were featured artists on Macklemore’s Grammywinning album.
BY KELLY MONTGOMERY KMONTGOMERY@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM
It’s not every day someone gets to work side by side with Macklemore and Ryan Lewis. But for Josh Rawlings, a 2001 Skyline High School graduate, it’s all part of the job. Rawlings has been fortunate enough to make his lifelong love of music into a stable career, having recently worked on Macklemore’s hit album, “The Heist,” which won four Grammy Awards last month. Rawlings said he became acquainted with Owuor Arunga, Macklemore’s trumpet player, through the local jazz scene. Arunga came out to a jam session with the band, The Teaching, featuring Rawlings on keyboard, bassist Evan Flory-Barnes, and percussionist Jeremy Jones. Arunga told them that Lewis was looking for a jazz band to contribute to a track on “The Heist” and that he had recommended them. One thing led to another, and before they knew it they were in the studio with Macklemore and Lewis. And at this point, the duo was still up-and-coming. “They were growing in popularity at the time we recorded, but they weren’t super famous yet, so we didn’t feel like we really needed to impress them. They were just dudes,” Rawlings said. “No one knew that the album was going to blow up as much as it did.” Rawlings said that he and The Teaching members attended the pre-telecast of the Grammys at the Nokia Theatre where the Rap Album of the Year award was announced. Since Macklemore and Lewis were getting ready for the telecast show, nobody was there to accept the award, and Rawlings had to keep himself from jumping up and running down to accept it on their behalf. Rawlings was unsure as to whether they were official Grammy winners, and just heard back from the Grammy Association clarifying their involvement. Technically, The Teaching members are ‘featured artists on the multi-Grammy winning album’ opposed to official Grammy-winners. “I know that we can definitely say we

were nominees for Album of the Year, probably the most prestigious award in the Grammys, and associated with this multi-Grammy winning album,” Rawlings said. “Being able to say those things alone makes me so proud to be a part of this city and what we’re doing.” Rawlings said that while the album is Grammy-winning, it’s also cool that it also features many local, Northwest artists. And “The Heist” is just one of Rawlings many projects. Aside from being a full-time dad, Rawlings plays the piano and drums, sings and is a composer. Most recently, he has been touring nationally with the Jason Parker Quartet and The Teaching, having shared the stage with Al Green. He is an Earshot Golden Ear Award recipient and has performed at the internationally recognized Earshot Jazz Festival. Rawlings, who was born in St. Croix Falls, Wis., and grew up in Minneapolis, moved to Seattle when he was 14-yearsold and started attending Skyline High School. Having been used to playing music by ear, Rawlings was devastated when he failed to make it into jazz band because he didn’t have a strong grasp on reading music. “High school is when I really got serious about music,” he said, explaining that Skyline was where he took his craft and strived to be better. Rawlings knew that if he could match his talent with actual practice, he could do something amazing. Once his sophomore year rolled around, there were a lot more opportunities to become involved, from the drama program to different school bands, and Rawlings ended up writing the school’s alma mater. “I got my hands on anything I could,” he said. Rawlings entered Skyline during the school’s first year of existence, so to him it was a perfect match. “I really feel like, for me, when I started at Skyline it was a new beginning because I was in a brand new environment, having grown up in Minnesota, so I had a SEE RAWLINGS, 3

Committee will recommend council extend marijuana moratorium BY LINDA BALL LBALL@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM
The Issaquah City Council’s Land and Shore committee agreed that there are still too many unanswered questions concerning recreational marijuana. With at least four different bills floating about in the legislature, the committee felt it is necessary to see what fleshes out in Olympia before the city moves forward with recreational marijuana producers, processors or retailers setting up shop. Issaquah is allowed one retail establishment. So far the city has had 19 applications for retail. Jason Rogers, associate planner with the city said Issaquah has had two applications for producer/processor. The committee will recommend to the full council that the city extend the current moratorium, which expires March 3, to July 7. Rogers said they have to be very clear why they need to extend the moratorium. Marijuana advocates, legislators and sponsors of I-502 are frustrated, and in some cases insulted, that 502 has passed yet some cities are fighting it.
Several bills have been introduced that allocate varying amounts of revenue to local jurisdictions from marijuana taxes, but none are a done deal. Committee member Stacy Goodman would like to know if the city will receive enough revenue to address public safety issues. Land and Shore chairman, Tola Marts, pointed out that the landscape could be very different if the medical marijuana system is done away with. There are two bills under consideration in the Senate at present that would amend the state’s medical marijuana laws, with ramifications including banning collective gardens, or even merging the medical and recreational marijuana systems. Redmond has already extended its moratorium, Rogers said. State law allows up to six month extensions. The committee wants adequate time to see what bills come out of the legislature on marijuana, and also to get public input. There will be a public hearing on recreational marijuana at the Tuesday, Feb. 18 city council meeting at 7 p.m. The meeting has been changed from Monday to Tuesday due to President’s Day.

fresh start in a new place,” he said. “And the fact that the school was new, it felt so serendipitous that I was having a fresh start and the school was having a fresh start. I felt like I had an opportunity to dig my fingers in, and not have to necessarily prove myself.” Rawlings said that there were certain teachers who started the music programs that truly inspired him, acting as mentors rather than teachers. Two of them are still at Skyline: choral director Nancy Zibert and band director David Pitt. “They recognized the drive and talents that I had and wanted to help nurture them,” he said. “I feel eternally grateful to them and to Skyline.” From Skyline, Rawlings attended Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle where he received a degree in Jazz Piano Performance. Starting out as a freshman, Rawlings would play gigs in exchange for coffee and donuts. By the time he was a senior, people were paying him pretty good money to perform. “I really felt like Cornish gave me the tools and resources to pretty much immediately access that career and lifestyle,” he said. But now, Rawlings said life is vastly different. With a 2-and-a-half-year-old boy and a little girl due in April, Rawlings first focus is on his family. “I really feel like becoming a father was one of the best things that’s ever happened in my life,” he said. “It required me to focus on my priorities.” After touring for two months straight, Rawlings said he felt like he got to live out his dream in real life. But what he really learned is that he wants to stay close to his family. “You start to really, really miss the people

you love,” he said. “Now I’m focusing on one band, opposed to six or seven. I’d rather have the flexibility to be able to write in the comforts of my own home, play local shows and have the flexibility of not having to live on a bus.” But later this summer Rawlings hopes to finish some albums he’s been working on. “This may be the year that I actually do it, but don’t quote me on that,” he said with a laugh. “Life is so different being a parent. I have to be a little bit more flexible. Not everything can happen at the same time.” That being said, Rawlings is making himself known and available. He said that he ran into Lewis at the airport in L.A. and he mentioned wanting to get together to collaborate. Rawlings said it’d be awesome to be able to continue working with the duo. “I learned that it does take a lot of energy and time to sustain a high level of performing music,” he said. “But that doesn’t mean you have to give up your connections.”

CVS pharmacy takes strong step against deadly tobacco
M
ore and more, pharmacies are integrating themselves into the healthcare business, many by providing in-store clinics to customers. It’s a good move that should make it easier for people to get immunization, see about a soar throat or take care of other straight-forward medical issues. Now comes news that CVS pharmacies will stop selling tobacco products by October. It’s a move that more pharmacies – and other retailers – should take to improve the nation’s health. Tobacco products, after all, are linked to particularly deadly forms of cancer. It’s possible that this move will cost CVS money. But how can a pharmacy that provides an in-store health care clinic not do this if it’s serious about their customers’ health? Perhaps that’s why the American Public Health Association called it a “historic decision,” and the American Association of Cancer Research called it a “visionary move.” Other pharmacy chains, both local and national, are adding clinics to their stores. They should follow the lead of CVS and put their customers’ health first. Who will be next?
Voters step up in Issaquah
V
oters in the Issaquah did the right thing Tuesday by approving three school issues. Voters in the Lake Washington School District, which includes Sammamish, almost did as well. Two levies for operations and technology got voter approval. However, a $755 million measure to build and rebuild schools, was failing to meet the necessary 60 percent approval for bonds. Certainly, the levies are the most critical to pass since that money helps pay the day to day operating expenses of the schools. The bonds, too, are important, given that the Lake Washington district anticipates thousands more students in the near future. Saying “no” to spending the money doesn’t make the problem go away. In any case, special thanks need to go to the citizen levy committees in both districts that worked hard to get information out to voters. Our schools and communities will be the better for all their work. – Craig Groshart, Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter

to pass legislation requiring background checks on all gun purchases. If they do, I-594 may not be necessary. C. F. Baumgartner, Mercer Island
LETTERS Leadership needed on I-594 In 2008, the Supreme Court decision District of Columbia v. Heller recognized the individual’s right to own a handgun. Justice Antonin Scalia also signaled that gun policy balancing gun ownership rights with public safety was reasonable. That is the goal of Washington State Initiative 594 – to require background checks for all gun sales. Every year, 625 persons become corpses in Washington, many because an indefensible public policy allows felons to buy guns. The NRA leadership sees I-594 as a threat, but they would oppose banning shoulder fired nuclear guns. However, 74 percent of NRA members say yes to background checks. NRA members know that in 1903 Congress passed the Militia Act, creating “a well regulated militia” we know as The National Guard. It fulfilled the requirement of the 2nd Amendment. NRA members tend to be well educated and know the unspoken rationale underpinning the 2nd Amendment. It enabled early Americans to put down slave rebellions and Indian terror. The NRA leadership would have you believe that background checks are the beginning of the slide down the “slippery slope” to registration and confiscation of America’s 270 million guns. That is not only unutterable nonsense but also a cognitive illusion of validity. What to do? Sens. Steve Litzow, Rodney Tom and Andy Hill are critically important lawmakers. Tell them

Dialogue needed on gay rights I am a sophomore at Bucknell University playing Division 1 Soccer. During my senior year of high school, I came out as gay. In doing so, I became very involved in fighting for the rights of the LGBT community, as well as other forms of social activism. This past semester I published “An Open Letter to Those Who Disapprove of Homosexuality” on Outsports. com, which surprised me by receiving a fair amount of attention. I wrote this with the simple intention of starting a dialogue and bringing the discussion into a public forum. Taboos only serve to maintain the status quo, while conversations create change. Too often we argue opposing sides without listening to the other, thus remaining stagnant and ensuring a lack of progress. As an athlete, I have seen the worst sides of homophobia, ignorance, and derogatory and discriminatory language. But I also have witnessed the brotherhood, support and community that a team can provide. If we can move forward emphasizing those values instead of brute force, the Equal Rights Movement will be exponentially more effective. We often compare the Equal Rights Movement to the Civil Rights Movement, yet we don’t hold ourselves to the same standards of behavior. The Civil Rights Movement was successful because of its unwavering commitment to love and nonviolence. I strongly suggest we do the same. Jesse Klug grew up in Issaquah

Eastside Catholic alum asks board to step down
Critics say school has lost its direction BY LINDA BALL LBALL@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM
Mary Helen Nuxoll Kopczynski, an Eastside Catholic school alumna, asked the school's board of directors to resign at the Feb. 6 board meeting. Nuxoll, class of 1996 and the school’s first female student body president, said there was some "snickering" from those in attendance, with disbelief from some that she made such a bold suggestion. The alumni are turning the heat up, she said, because they are the only ones who are immune from any sort of punishment in continuing their call for former vice principal Mark Zmuda to get his job back. Zmuda was fired from the Catholic school Dec. 19, 2013 when it was revealed he had married his gay partner last summer. The school's president and CEO, Sister Mary Tracy resigned Jan. 20, as did the board chair. Principal Polly Skinner is leading the school for now, and board officers Brad Bastian and Tom Padilla are co-chairs of the board. Eastside Catholic is conducting a nationwide search for a new president. "One of the original founding board members (Bob Becker) told the board they'd lost their way," Nuxoll Kopczynski said. She said he (Becker) told the board they never intended for the school to be a doctrinal Catholic school. She said when they hired Tracy, it really took a doctrinal
direction. Along with Nuxoll Kopczynski and her husband, Jeffrey ("Red") Kopczynski, 2006 alumnus Corey Sinser have been leading the charge for a change. Sinser said Bastian and Padilla tagteamed throughout the meeting, holding firm to their stance that Zmuda is not coming back. Sinser is pleased that they are conducting a nationwide search for a new president. In a letter to the board, Sinser said Tracy "was not the right individual to lead the school, and that she inspired no confidence in students, teachers, parents or alumni, and instilled an intransigent, draconian, and intimidating culture that only served to distance herself from school constituents." Sinser said one teacher of 30 years testified that in the past few years, the teachers have not been respected and that the school was in flux. The teacher also testified that they had been mistreated for many years. "It's a different place," Sinser said. "I love Eastside Catholic, and I'm concerned about my alma mater." Sinser said there is a real disconnect at the school right now. Jeffrey Kopcynski challenged the board by mentioning that some of the staff were divorced, so why did they pick this topic to discriminate? Sinser said expectations regarding Catholic doctrinal practices need to be spelled out for employees. "The understanding of public v. private with regard to perceived transgressions against the church has never been explained," Sinser wrote. "If it is the goal of the school administration to expect
all employees to conduct themselves in pre-Vatican II fashion, so be it; they just owe it to the staff to be honest about it. Likewise, if they would rather encourage a more Jesuit 'ask for forgiveness, not permission' attitude toward one's relationship with the church, that too must be explained." The Kopczynskis, who now live in New York, have flown in twice to attend meetings on the Zmuda situation. Nuxoll Kopcynski said she got the impression that some of the board members feel they don't
have a choice but to go along with the decisions that have been made, and that a few of them disagree, but are too scared to say how they really feel. They feel alumni, teacher and parent voices needs to be on the board, which now is primarily made up of business executives with no background in academia. Nuxoll Kopcynski said the alumni are not giving up until Zmuda is rehired. Staff writer Linda Ball can be reached at 425-391-0363.

Risk becomes lifetime memory Bob Papke of Sammamish takes four sons to Super Bowl XLVIII
BY KELLY MONTGOMERY KMONTGOMERY@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM
We think the best way to care for our neighbors is to be in the neighborhood.
Four months ago, Bob Papke of Sammamish took a leap of faith and bought four tickets to the Super Bowl. With two sons living in Denver, Papke figured that one of the two teams would make it come Feb. 2. So when it became known that the Seattle Seahawks would be facing the Denver Broncos in the Super Bowl, the Papke family was more than excited. “It was one of those freak deals where everything came together perfectly,” Papke said. Papke originally bought the tickets with his wife, but when it became clear the

to Broncos fans was 8 to 1. They bussed to the game four hours early, grabbed some food and took their seats. "The atmosphere was insane," Papke said, explaining that the NFL does a fabulous job of making the Super Bowl more than just the game. That, combined with the huge Hawks win, made for the weekend of a lifetime. The Papke boys stayed up until 3 a.m. to watch post-game festivities, and left for the airport at 4:30 a.m. When they arrived in Seattle, they were greeted with balloons,
banners and cheers from Alaska Airlines employees. They wanted show their appreciation to the 12th man. "I will be an Alaska Air customer for life," Papke said. And while some of the family remains bitter, Papke said the experience was more than he could have imagined. "It's a great way to bond with the kids," he said. Papke said that the money, the crowds, the exhaustion--it was all worth it. “There’s nothing like your teams first Super Bowl win,” Papke said.

Take It Out of the Trash!
Grant Papke, Bob Papke’s grandson, lives in Denver with his dad, Bryan, a diehard Seahawks fan, and mom, Jodi, a diehard Broncos fan. Grant chose to support the Hawks in the Super Bowl by shaving and dying the Seahawks logo onto the back of his head. Another kid at school told Grant that “the Seahawks suck” and parents had to be called. Bob Papke said it’s probably good for Grant that the Seahawks won.

3A Metro League title game, Garfield High School Eastside Catholic VS. Rainier Beach, 8 p.m.
BY JOSH SUMAN JSUMAN@BELLEVUEREPORTER.COM
When Bill Liley took the position as head coach of the Eastside Catholic boys basketball team, he knew the perception of both the program and its potential. He also knew he had a plan, and what it would take to implement it. “I felt like the world was urging me against it,” he said of taking the job three seasons ago. “But I don’t back down from a challenge.” Liley and the Crusaders have answered that challenge in the biggest way possible all year, beating Metro rival O’Dea and securing a division championship and spot in the league’s final four. They repeated that feat with a 61-55 win over the Irish in the conference tournament semifinals Tuesday, and face top-ranked Rainier Beach for the championship tonight. “It’s been so long since we were considered as having an opportunity to go to state,” Liley said of a goal that is now only one Sea-King tourney win away. “I felt like this had a chance.” It didn’t take long for the longtime head coach and state champion at 1A King’s (Shoreline) to make a mark in Sammamish. During his first season in 2011, Liley did not take his team on the summer league and tournament circuit, opting instead to hunker down and focus on fundamentals. While

the approach was not popular at first, players didn’t take long to adapt. “We had to instill a work ethic here, and sometimes that meant the coach had to be a little over the top,” Liley said. “When you work hard and work smart, you should expect
Skyline, Issy, EC wrestlers win league, lead teams to regionals BY JOSH SUMAN JSUMAN@BELLEVUEREPORTER.COM
Skyline freshman Zach Froeber won the 106 pound bracket for the Eagles at the 4A KingCo championships, beating Issaquah’s William Tickman
in the final. Martin Miller was third for Eastlake and will also move to regionals. The Spartans also got titles at 120 pounds, where junior Nathan Swanson beat Newport’s Diego Dwyer, and 132, with senior
Tristan Steciw beating Bothell’s Andrew Hanson. Issaquah won two individual championships and will send a host of wrestlers to regionals, as seniors Torre Eaton and Louden Ivey took the titles at 113 and 138 respectively.

Steve Solusod was third at 113 for Issaquah, with Hunter Hurley third at 152 and Colby Starren second at 160. Seth Hartman punched his regional ticket at 138 pounds, finishing fifth. Skyline senior Kody Nguyen was the runnerup at 113 and a pair of Spartans finished fourth in Garin Swanson (138) and Joseph DeMatteo (145).

to win.” Liley said he held two weeks of closed practices to begin his tenure, focusing on defense and building a team-first mindset. For current seniors and twins Ian and Nathan Christie, the Liley’s belief only reinforced their dedication to the program’s future. “He knew it was going to happen,” Nathan said. “He had no second-guesses about it, and that was good.” The Crusaders saw an immediate impact with a new coach and his ability to pull the best out of players, especially on the defensive end. They reached the district tournament in his first year, and were only a game away from the program’s first 3A state tournament berth in more than a decade last season. This year, the pendulum has swung. The Crusaders beat rivals O’Dea and Seattle Prep during the regular season, and lost only two Metro League games all year en route to a division title and spot in the conference’s final four. Eastside Catholic once again used balanced scoring and a strong defensive effort to reach the championship game, beating the Irish for the second time. Liley’s squad already owns a spot in the Sea-King District Tournament, where they will try to earn a signature moment in a winner-to-state game on Tuesday. Junior Mandrell Worthy, who Liley called one of the core SEE HOOPS, 11
Kaufman was fourth and Jonnie Estrada second at 195. Senior Rudolf Ross was fifth at 220 to earn the final regional spot in the bracket. Issaquah coach Kirk Hyatt was named 4A KingCo Coach of the Year, while the Eagles also took the dual meet title for the season. Woodinville won the conference meet team scoring title in front of Skyline. Pairings for Saturday’s regionals are not finalized, due to school closures in the Vancouver area that impacted their sub-regional tournament.
Three from EC take Metro titles Eastside Catholic junior Matt Iwicki won three matches by fall in the Metro League tournament, also earning OutMatt Iwicki standing Wrestler honors for the lower weight classes and winning a Metro League title at 132 pounds. Junior Connor Heger got in on the championship action as well, winning all three of his matches at 220 pounds to take the title. Alex Neale made it three champs for Eastside Catholic, earning three falls at 285 pounds to take the crown. Teammate Matt Boss was third at 138, five matches for the Crusaders. Bradley Strode went 3-1 at 195 pounds for EC, finishing third.

New Gym East coach has Olympic history
HOOPS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10
BY JOSH SUMAN JSUMAN@BELLEVUEREPORTER.COM
Gymnasitcs East, which has locations in Bellevue and Issaquah, has brought a coach with Olympic experience to assist with identifying top talent and developing an elite level program in the area. Nicolae Forminte, who has coached Olympic Gold Medal winners from his native Romania and also spent time as a collegiate and junior national team level coach, said the mission of Gymnastics East is ideally suited for building a place for the area’s best gymnasts to grow. “We are super excited to have him here,” manager Kim Thompson said. “We’ve always been competitive, but there wasn’t that elite level.” Forminte can bring that, with his six gold medals. “You have to have passion,” Forminte said. “I’m here to help U.S. Gymnastics and it’s a new opportunity.” Gymnastics East in Issaquah is located at

Kim swims to KingCo record BY JOSH SUMAN JSUMAN@BELLEVUEREPORTER.COM
Eastlake senior Edward Kim swam a KingCo record time of one minute, 54.6 seconds in the 200 yard individual medley finals at the conference swim and dive championships at the University of Washington Feb. 1, and won the 100 fly in 51.33.
Issaquah took the victory in the 200 medley relay, with Jason Klein, Ben Nussbaum, Gabe Florsheim and Henry Pratt in front of Mercer Island and Bellevue. Klein aso won the 100 free in an automatic state time of 48.67. The Eagles finished fourth in the team scoring, with Eastlake fifth and Skyline 11th.
Issaquah began the 4A KingCo tournament with a 61-42 win against Inglemoor Tuesday, and will face Roosevelt, a 70-61 winner over Bothell, Friday at 6:30 p.m. at Juanita High School. Head coach Jason Griffith said the growth of his team, which finished the regular season 13-2 in conference play, is most evident in their cohesion. That bond now has the Eagles one win from a spot in the 4A KingCo title game, and a spot in the 16-team Regional round. “Team chemistry-wise, we’re in a great place,” he said. “The kids all understand their roles and what the team needs from them.” The Eagles have every reason to be confident as the postseason continues, riding a six game winning streak that includes a victory over previously unbeaten Garfield. Their last loss was the first since the team returned from the MaxPreps Holiday Classic at the start of January, where Griffith said his team got, “a reality check,” and came home with a 1-3 record. “We didn’t play our best basketball down
