Bond measure for new police hub coming up short BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com
Kent voters appear to be failing to give the necessary 60 percent bond measure approval to build a new police headquarters. Proposition A received 8,080
(53.73 percent) yes votes to 6,958 (46.27 percent) no votes, according to results released Wednesday afternoon by King County Elections. “I was a little bit surprised,” said Kent Police Chief Ken Thomas at a gathering of bond measure sup-

ShoWare Center operating losses growing
BY STEVE HUNTER
Garbage taxes will go up next year in Kent to help pay for residential street repairs. The Kent City Council voted 6-1 on Tuesday night to raise the solid waste tax rate to 18.3 percent from 7.8 percent on each bill. The increase will bring in about $3 million per year for street maintenance in neighborhoods. Single-family residents who pay $18.37 per month for garbage, recycling and yard waste service plus taxes, will see a new rate of $20.75 per month for
about $57 per year for a $300,000 home. Thomas asked the City Council at an April workshop to send the measure to voters. Kent has 144 officers and is expected to have
completed the mission, going from the battlefield to the working world, and now uses his experiences to help veterans help themselves. “I’m trying to help them be successful … to help them explore and

Riverbend needs $400,000 for new irrigation well BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com
The Kent City Council will consider whether to spend $400,000 next year for a new irrigation well at the Riverbend Golf Complex. Parks Director Jeff Watling asked the council for money

on irrigation. “If we spend about $150,000 a year on water, we could spend $400,000 to rebuild the well we’d get that back in a two-to-threeyear time period.” Funds for the well would come out of the Riverbend budget, which the city has set up as an enterprise fund, meaning it’s supposed to cover costs through revenue. But the city-owned complex that includes an 18-hole course, a par 3 course, driving range and merchandise shop, faces a $2.6 million debt, capital investments of at least $6 million and operating deficits of about $300,000 per year.
City officials hope to sell the par 3 course next year to a residential and commercial developer to cover the debt as well as the capital improvements needed on the 18-hole course. The debt is owed to an interfund loan, money that the city borrowed from its water and fleet funds to help pay off the bond for the golf complex. “It would be an additional hit to debt the first couple of years,” Watling said about paying for the new well. “If we sell the par 3 the proceeds from that sale would address paying back the debt.”

to replace or re-drill the well during an Oct. 28 budget workshop. He said Riverbend’s budget included nearly $150,000 this year to buy water from the city for irrigation and has averaged about $100,000 per year in water expenses in each of the last three years because the well is inoperable. “It’s a one-time request and a key part of fixing our operating budget is addressing the well,” Watling said. “This is a budget request that will allow us to do the capital work needed to get our well back into a functional system that we can rely on for an irrigational system and not have to spend money every year

ShoWare operator gets contract extension BY STEVE HUNTER
shunter@kentreporter.com
The Kent City Council voted 7-0 on Tuesday night to approve a contract extension with Philadelphiabased SMG to market and operate the city-owned ShoWare Center. The agreement will pay SMG $135,000 a year to run the $84.5 million arena that seats 6,024. The extension could run for as many as 10 more years. SMG manages the day-to-day operations of the arena, including event booking, the budget,
GREEN RIVER LEVEE PROJECT FOCUS OF NOV. 19 MEETING The King County Flood Control District hosts a community meeting and open house on Nov. 19 in Kent, where residents can learn more about a new flood-risk reduction project along the Green River. Set for 4-7 p.m. at the Kent Senior Activity Center, 600 E. Smith St., the meeting includes a presentation about the Lower Russell Road Levee Setback project, and an opportunity for residents to talk with project managers. The project, identified as an early action project of the Green River System-Wide Improvement Framework, includes plans to replace and upgrade 1.4 miles of existing levee and revetment along the east bank of the Green River between South 212th Street and Veterans Drive/South 228th Street. The work is funded with $16.6 million in King County Flood District funds. For more information, go to kingcounty.gov/rivers or contact Erik Peters 206477-4797 or erik.peters@ kingcounty.gov.
vendor selection, public relations and marketing, and event staffing. The company also has the food and beverage contract. SMG received the council’s unanimous vote despite the arena losing $3 million since it opened in 2009. The city covers those losses with money out of its general fund. “I think ShoWare is a good asset for the city,” Councilman Bill Boyce said prior to the vote. “It’s pretty clear it’s not where we want it to be from a financial standpoint, but I think that is on the table now.

A 57-year-old Kent man faces federal charges of two counts of possession of child pornography for allegedly videotaping a young girl in a bathroom at his home. James Christopher Rivers already had been charged with sexual exploitation of a minor by King County prosecutors. Rivers, a former instructor at the Art Institute of Seattle, had a hearing Oct. 30 in district court prior to his release. Federal prosecutors wanted Rivers to remain in custody but U.S. District Court Judge Mary Alice Theiler granted his release with conditions. Rivers is scheduled to return to district court Nov. 7 in Seattle. Rivers is accused of hiding his cellphone in a bathroom to videotape a young girl in the shower and bath, according to charging papers. An FBI office in Ohio notified Kent Police that a computer forensics agency had discovered child pornography on a laptop Rivers sent to the company to remove all pornography because he did not want his wife to divorce him over the pornography, according to charging documents. The FBI took custody of the laptop.

The city agreed to pay $50,000 annually to repay that $500,000 loan.

A cancelled concert in July kept the revenue lower for that month, said Arletta Voter, ShoWare finance director, at an Oct. 30 Public Facilities District meeting. The board helps oversee arena operations. “The year to date actual is quite a bit over budget significantly due to the unexpected capital expenses of $182,373,” Voter said. Those expenses are for the repairs to the ice plant equipment at the $84.5 million facility. Without that expense, the losses would be $582,100. City officials are pursuing reimbursement of those costs from contractors and subcontractors because the system failed after such a short period. “It was a complete overhaul and recommissioning of the ice plant system,” said

a customer who has a 32-gallon weekly garbage pickup and up to a 96-gallon recycling and 96-gallon yard waste containers pickup every other week. “We don’t have funding to repair these roads in residential areas,” Councilman Dennis Higgins said prior to the vote. “I see a direct connection between the garbage utility tax and repairing these streets. I think it’s important for many different reasons not the least of which is maintaining the property value for homeowners. “As people are buying and selling property the condi-
Ben Wolters, city economic and community development director, who helps oversee the arena. “It was substantial replacement of key parts. Any part showing any sign of wear and tear was replaced. The system was reset and restarted from ground zero.” Wolters said the ice plant system that produces the arena ice for the Seattle Thunderbirds junior hockey team is working well after repairs by PermaCold Engineering out of Oregon. “PermaCold has a firm handle on it,” Wolters said. “We’re really pleased with the direction. They have some further recommendations we’re evaluating for changes to the system which they think will optimize its performance and further reduce the risk of any problems with the system. We’re likely to do that
and those will be expenses we will see next year, about $30,000 for design changes.” Tim Higgins, ShoWare general manager, said the repairs have worked. “The system is running the best it has been in the six years we’ve had it,” Higgins said. As far as a strong final quarter this year, Higgins said many events are scheduled for the arena. “We are looking at 45 events between now and the end of the year,” Higgins said. “That’s pretty strong. It’s been quite active. I wish we could be doing 60 days, we’d like to fill everyday possible.” The center will host 179 events by the end of the year. “That’s right in the ballpark of what we’ve been doing,” Higgins said. Events coming up in-
clude Disney On Ice Nov. 12-17 with 10 performances that average about 2,000 people per show; The Wolf Hometown Holiday concert on Dec. 10 that has sold more than 2,500 tickets; the 103.7 Hot House Party concert featuring Bobby Brown on Dec. 12; and 20 Seattle Thunderbirds hockey and Seattle Impact FC soccer games. The fourth-quarter numbers also will include the more than 5,000 people who attended the Espinoza Paz concert on Oct. 12 and the more than 4,000 who went to the Lecrae Anomaly tour on Oct. 19. The City Council sets aside $500,000 each year in the city’s general fund to cover operating losses at the arena. ShoWare officials will release the final 2014 income statement for the arena in January.
tion of the neighborhood is certainly a factor in the value of the property. And a road that is falling apart and has chunks and potholes coming out of it is going to affect that property value. This council can’t continue to defer that maintenance.” Councilwoman Deborah Ranniger cast the only vote against the tax. “What concerns me is this council is wrestling with a variety of different revenue shortfalls and options and funding streams,” she said. “What I am hearing from folks in the community is a lot of negativity around being hit from all sides in terms of increases. This is not the only increase being proposed and
we are still wrestling with the budget. I feel this is not the right time to be passing this when we have not made decisions about everything else yet.” Kent has about 26,000 garbage customers served by Republic Services. About 24,000 of those are residential customers. City officials rationalize the tax increase because of the damage garbage and recycling trucks cause to roads. The council asked city staff to come up with proposals about ways to raise more money for street repairs. At least 19 neighborhoods have cracked roads that need to be repaired, Public Works Director Tim
LaPorte said. He added most of the roads are close to 30 years old and residential streets last an average of about 25 years. He said the cost to repair streets in all 19 neighborhoods is about $35 million. “It would take us 11 years to address these neighborhoods,” LaPorte said about the utility tax that will bring in $3 million per year. “We would never catch up but we certainly can make a dent in fixing these streets.” Kelly Peterson, Public Works special projects manager, emphasized Kent has the lowest rates in the area and even with the increase only Tukwila will have a lower rate.

City officials want to tear down the current police station next to City Hall along Fourth Avenue South. The 19,000-square-foot facility would be replaced by a twostory, 48,000-square-foot building. Officers would be housed at temporary locations during construction, which could take 12 to 18 months. About $800,000 of the bond would be used to pay to rewire and re-plumb

Colleen Steele remains hopeful that her resilient son, Cullen, gains the strength to come home. It won’t be in time for Thanksgiving, she says, but maybe for Christmas. After receiving a heart and double-lung transplant three months ago, the Kent boy is slowly on the mend. Cullen, who turns 15 on Nov. 17, suffers from pulmonary hypertension, a rare, debilitating disease of the lungs that affects the functioning of the heart and can lead to failure. His deteriorating condition, a six-year battle, necessitated a last-hour surgery at Stanford University’s Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital in Palo Alto, Calif. At 6 a.m. on Aug. 6, Colleen got the phone call she had long been waiting for. Doctors had finally found a donor. She accompanied Cullen on the urgent flight down to the San Francisco Bay Area, where the following morning, surgeons stood ready to perform a six-hour transplant operation to save the boy’s life. Defying odds, Cullen pulled through. “He was declining rapidly, and those lifesaving organs didn’t come a moment too soon,” Colleen said of the excruciating ordeal. “The surgeon told me after the transplant that when they did the operation, his old heart and lungs were barely functioning. His old organs were wounded warriors.”

Who is really teaching your kids? The Kent School District trains its teachers through several means, but the most controversial right now is during instructional days. This means taking the teacher away from the classroom and providing a substitute. Or it should. Kent is currently having a sub shortage. This is caused by several factors: lower sub pay and benefits than surrounding districts; no student teacher program/pipeline; turnover in our human resources department that leaves applications for subs withering in cyberspace; and a lack of respect given to substitute teachers by schools and students. There is becoming a statewide shortage as well. When a sub is not available to cover for a teacher in staff development sessions, the teachers in the building are pulled from counseling, libraries, P.E., music and other important programs or other classroom teachers give up their time to communicate with parents, review data, plan lessons. In classrooms, this could mean a new teacher for students each 50 minutes, or more. It means students have to deal with a lot of change, a lot of different management styles and teachers who are filling in and have to read through lesson plans and may not be familiar with the materials or even grade level.

It means a teacher can’t answer a question in the hallway, or they leave 33 other students waiting for their temporary substitute. It means parent communication suffers. Kent’s administration changes a lot of programs and has a lot of training each year. In our building this week we had five less subs than we needed to cover, and this is one out of 40 Kent schools. On Tuesday alone, we were short three subs. Many buildings have less dedicated subs and are always short more subs than our numbers reflect. What will happen when flu season hits and teachers are ill? The real reason we have subs. This also puts stress on principals and office staff who devote an extraordinary amount of time rounding up teachers to cover classes, filling out paperwork and trying to bridge the gaps in coverage themselves. Staff development is often
grouped so that a classroom teacher is out multiple days in a row, meaning the impact to students is cumulative. With all the days/lessons missed for all the testing we now do, teaching and learning are already compressed and learning is slowed when the regular classroom teacher who knows the kids and the curriculum is not doing the teaching. The current teacher contract calls for staff development to be canceled and for teachers to return to buildings when there are no subs for their classrooms. This is not happening, even when the district knows they are short dozens of subs over 48 hours in advance. Is this really best for our students? – Donna Pirog
The $500,000 a year question Moody’s downgraded the city of Kent twice – sending the clear message that Kent City Hall has not managed the city’s finances in a responsible way. You might think that the economy is solely responsible for the city’s negative revenues. It’s not. ShoWare Center is costing the city more than $500,000 a year to sustain, but the city keeps supporting this trophy arena while cutting social services and other vital programs. Now the ice machines are defective, so another $500,000 [ more LETTERS page 7 ]

[ LETTERS from page 6 ] is needed to cool the white elephant in the room. Is there some magic number, say a billion dollars, that will motivate City Council members to talk seriously about closing this monument to civic vanity? It’s clear that the council is loath to do anything that offends business interests (e.g, the fight against a B&O tax). But it’s incomprehensible that the council continues to flush millions of dollars down the drain
Community at work Given the high medical costs, the Steeles are doing their best to make ends meet. Family and friends from Auburn, Kent and surrounding communities have organized creative fundraising events. Amy O’Donnell Riley and COTA (Children’s Organ Transplant Association) have been instrumental raising money to cover the cost of Cullen’s operation. Colleen cannot thank the many supporters enough. “We are fortunate to have amazing family and friends,� she said. Colleen also is overwhelmed by the great gift of life that Cullen received by the donor and his family. “We are so grateful to them, and our prayers are always with his family,� she said. Colleen intends to write a letter and send a photo of Cullen to the donor’s family. By careful arrangement, families have the option to read each other’s letter. They also have the choice to meet in the future. Colleen is entertaining that probability. For Colleen, it’s been a tough go,
just so Kent Station businesses (e.g., restaurants and theater) can benefit from ShoWare event traffic. This is an entertainment venue that Kent can’t afford. When going through the budget process, the arena seems to be off limits for any drastic action to remedy the year-after-year deficit. Moody’s is likely to downgrade Kent’s fiscal health as long as the City Council doesn’t acknowledge the problem and do something about it instead of dithering over “innova-

tive thinking� to stimulate attendance and hiring consultants to tell them the obvious: It’s a money loser. – Sandra Gill
Time to raise wages Could you survive on $9.47 an hour? That’s next year’s state minimum wage. It may be the highest in the country, but it’s still not enough for workers to sup-
port themselves, afford the basics, and contribute to the economy. Raising wages is good for workers striving for a better future. It’s also good for our economy. After all, more people with more money means more customers for more businesses. That’s why I think it’s time to raise wages, raise up Kent workers, and raise up our whole state. – Beatrice Shimirimana
Veterans, thank you for my freedom I drove up Veterans Memorial Drive the other day, as I do every so often, just to remember. The city of Kent was very thoughtful when they planned that drive for us, the vets. One end is on Military Road at the top of what was formerly 228th. Military Road, as my dad told me when I was a boy, was the path that the Army used to convoy weapons, ammunition and other items during World War II, from Fort Lewis to Fort Lawton, now dubbed Discovery Park. The Memorial Drive consists of going down a steep hill from Military Road to the beginning of the flat where it promptly turns back to 228th. I was traveling up the long steep hill, which is so appropriate for we who served. Most of the American public has no idea what it means to be a vet. One day is certainly not enough to honor what sacrifices they have made for us. Let me give you a quick overview of what your son or daughter, father or friends have endured. To be a vet is a lifetime of commitment that begins with the first day of shocking reality in training, like boot camp. “What have I done?� could be heard within the brain of the new recruit if hard exhaustive breathing and the need for sleep weren’t yelling louder.
This is the beginning of learning to pull together as a team of future vets. The one main purpose is protecting their families, protecting our way of life with values, with honesty, integrity and the freedom to raise our children to follow decency as our founding fathers intended. Then reality sets in and the training ground becomes overseas. “The Bush,� The Sand Box,� “Down Range,� “Boots on the Ground,� loud noises, looking back over your shoulder and watching for bumps in the ground. The places and times where all that training keeps you alive, or someone who you trained with does, by offering his own life for you. People who are “oh, so special� left behind where the great question also lies, why wasn’t it me? Tuck that in your Ditty Bag and live with it for the rest of your life. News comes from home, how Americans are objecting to me being over here, objecting to us fulfilling our intense team training, fighting for gas or money or corruption of some kind is what they may be saying. How do I deal with this? How do I digest this and ignore this attitude while I look at the devastations of my friends who have become closer than my brothers? They are my brothers.

but even more so for her son. “It’s been hard in a sense that a transplant really shouldn’t be the cure for PH (pulmonary hypertension). You’re really trading one disease for another,â€? said Colleen, pointing out that November is PH Awareness Month. “It’s been really hard watching Cullen struggle, which is to be expected. It’s hard seeing him in pain and watching him go through the process of recovery. ‌ Knowing that a transplant is a roller-coaster ride in itself, he will always have challenges.â€? Cullen’s plight has been an emotional experience, testing the resolve of those around him. “For a mom, the heartbreak never ends. It’s heart wrenching in many ways, but I also have so much hope for Cullen’s future,â€? Colleen said. “I try to take it a day at a time. I’ve learned to appreciate the small things. There’s no taking things for granted when you’re going through things like this. “I look at Cullen now and, despite his current challenges, he looks so much healthier than he has in years,â€? Colleen said. “Day by day, he is getting stronger, and I can’t wait until he feels well enough to live life to its fullest. Every day I wake up and want to hug him and never let go because I’m so grateful he is still with me.â€?
AS I SEE IT
Cullen, ever the fighter, now is on the mend, but his recovery has been rough. His new organs are in “minor rejection,� which is normal in the first year of recovery, and anti-inflammation medications have led to seizures, migraines and other complications. But doctors are optimistic that Cullen will respond to treatment. The transplant center, led by Stanford medicine faculty, is considered one of the nation’s finest facilities, supporting some of the highest survival rates in the country for children. “He’s had some bumps in the road, but he’s doing well. Basically, his doctors say he’s doing well,� Colleen said. “There’s a lot to be figured out, but there’s so much hope. I mean, they’re going to figure this out. It’s just going to take time.� To be near her son, Colleen left her secretarial job at Auburn’s Holy Family Catholic School and rented a studio apartment not far from the transplant center. The hospital is picking up the costs. As mom stands by her son’s side, the rest of the family is staying back, more than 800 miles away. Brian, Cullen’s father, is a senior systems administrator. Aidan, 13, Cullen’s brother, attends school. Despite the long distance, the family has reunited at the hospital. “(Aidan) has given up so much over the years and has worried without end about his brother,� Colleen said. “This journey has been very hard on him as well, yet he rarely complained. He’s an amazing young man, and Brian and I are so proud of his strength as well.� Between treatments, Cullen tries to
keep busy with books. He graduated from the eighth grade at Holy Family last spring but has spent his freshman year taking classes at a school in the hospital. “They’ve been very understanding,� Colleen said of the instructors at Kennedy Catholic, Cullen’s high school. “They even have sent him care packages and encouragement. They are really looking forward to the day when he can finally walk through their doors.�

If the threat comes before a school day, the school can close, but in other events officials will evacuate or lockdown a school.

www.kentreporter.com Lovitt found his way, but it wasn’t easy. He saw combat with the Army Airborne’s 10th Mountain Division in Iraq and Afghanistan from 200205. His patrol withstood many nerve-jarring suicide bomb attacks and surprising episodes with improvised explosive devices. One attack in particular stands out. His unit was on a 12-hour patrol outside Baghdad on Sept. 14, 2005, when a car bomb explosion scattered the group. The blast shook the Humvee carrying Lovitt and three other soldiers like a “box of marbles.� It damaged the fortified truck, engulfed it in flames and left a crater in the ground. Luckily, no one was killed in the explosion, but plenty of heads were left ringing. Lovitt absorbed a concussion, one of several he says he sustained on two lengthy tours of duty, and was later
diagnosed with a traumatic brain injury. After serving five years in the Army, Lovitt came home with invisible wounds. He struggled with migraines, memory loss and other cognitive problems. “I would read a page, and by the time I got to the bottom of it I’d lost what I was reading,� he said. “At that point, I knew something was wrong.� So Lovitt found treatment, eventually regaining his memory and rebuilding his cognitive skills. Unsure of his future, Lovitt returned to school. Peter Schmidt, a Veterans Training Support Center project director at Edmonds Community College, encouraged Lovitt to deal with his struggles and connected him to the right people and resources. “He was encouraging and empowering,� Lovitt said. Lovitt excelled in the classroom and began work-

ing with student veterans. He chartered two student clubs. “My experiences with campus activities helped me realize that, although my time in the military had ended, my service to my nation and those around me had not,â€? Lovitt said. After graduating from Edmonds, Lovitt earned his bachelor’s degree in public affairs from Seattle University and a master’s in business administration from Western Governor’s University. Part of the first cohort of the Washington Department of Veteran Affairs, he later became its first traumatic brain injury field coordinator. Today, 32-year-old Lovitt – husband, father of two and proud veteran – plans to pursue a doctorate degree while continuing his work with students at Green River. Lovitt enjoys the challenge of getting veteran students back on their feet. Green River has a long history of supporting veterans and continues to ensure student success through comprehensive educational programs and support services. “A good day for me is when somebody learns about our resources ‌ and we’re able to help them,â€? Lovitt said.
Lovitt encourages student veterans to reach out, establish relationships and find the necessary help. Veterans often can’t make it alone. “People will guide you during your journey, give you a shoulder to lean on and help you laugh when you need it,� he said. Veterans need help in many ways, Lovitt said. “The reassimilation is really quick. The general public’s understanding or expectation is that the men and women who come out of the military go through this long, detailed transition process and that they are retrained and given the right tools to be successful. That’s not what’s happening,� Lovitt said. “The everyday Joe who comes out of the military doesn’t know how to write a resume. They don’t know how to do a job interview. They kinda know how to network, but not effectively for careers,� Lovitt explained. “Most of them have never explored what they want to do. Now that they are out, they don’t realize the options.� Lovitt says the college has stepped up. Green River keeps growing with a healthy infusion of returning veterans ready to rediscover the classroom. The college served more than 500 student veterans last
year, and has helped more than 300 VA-supported student veterans so far this year, Lovitt said. The GRCC Foundation is doing its part. Its Veterans Educational Transition (VET) Fund covers gaps in student veterans’ education benefits. Auburn’s VFW Post 1741 and the Kent Rotary Club are among those organizations that have contributed greatly to the college’s veteran fund programs. There are many other resources in place to help veterans, including programs that help ease the transition from combat to campus. The Washington State Department of Veterans Affairs developed the new GI Bill education benefits programs for post-9/11 veterans, providing a supportive environment and easier access to other benefits, such as academic advice, financial aid, career counseling and peer support. Lovitt is determined to succeed and lead the college’s efforts to help more students find their way. Much more work needs to be done. “My professional goal is to have the highest retention and completion rates of our student veterans in the state,â€? Lovitt said. “To move the needle ‌ to have more student veterans graduating here.â€?

Woods leads Royals into district playoffs
T-BIRDS EDGE RED DEER 3-2 IN SHOOTOUT The Seattle Thunderbirds defeated the Red Deer Rebels 3-2 in a Western Hockey League shootout Tuesday night, getting the win before heading out on a 17-day Eastern Conference road trip. Seattle improved to 7-6-2-1, tied for third in the U.S. Division with 17 points. Red Deer falls to 8-7-1-1 after suffering its first shootout loss of the year. Taran Kozun got his 14th start of the year and stopped 37 of 39 shots. The win was Kozun’s seventh of the year, putting his record at 7-4-2-1. Justin Hickman scored the only goal of the shootout for Seattle.

He throws for 25, he throws for 35, he throws for 45. Kent-Meridian High quarterback Ben Woods has made a name for himself in his first varsity season as a reliable and precise thrower, with more than 1,700 yards and 17 touchdowns. But when it comes to his game, the sophomore doesn’t like to think of himself as shoehorned into a single style of play. “I’m not one dimensional, but for what I need to do for the team,” Woods says. “I’m comfortable doing both, but I think I’m a better passer than a runner.” Woods leads the Royals (6-3) into a West Central District playoff game on the road against Gig Harbor at 7 p.m. Friday. The winner advances to the Class 4A state tournament. His interest in football started with the Madden video game when he was 8, he says. Instead of playing backyard pickup football with his brother, Sam, they picked up a copy of the popular football video game, which inspired his brother to play football in middle and high school. Woods simply followed suit. “It’s been an up and down
Kent-Meridian sophomore quarterback Ben Woods has thrown 17 touchdown passes this season to help the Royals advance to a district playoff game Friday at Gig Harbor. ROSS COYLE, Kent Reporter roller coaster,” he says. Woods picked up the K-M quarterback’s mantle from 2013’s Quincy Carter, who signed to Central Washington University as a running back. He says that he hasn’t been nervous about taking on the role, but he has been eager to do right by his fellow players. “I wouldn’t use the word nervous, but the fact that I wanted to live up to the expectations of what a
starting QB should be, and what he should be able to do for his team,” he says. Much of what he’s learned about being a good quarterback came from Carter, who helped coach him in the off-season before leaving for college. “Quincy was an amazing athlete and he helped me out during the off-season. I would use the term mentor to describe him. He’s a fun guy but when things get to
business. When you get that from an athlete like him, there’s not much you can say.” In a sense, the training has come full circle as Sam Woods was one of Carter’s biggest mentors when he played for the Royals. Woods is quick to acknowledge that his success has come from his teammates as much, if not more than, his own work. He believes that it’s the entire offensive line, from
his blockers to his running backs, who have made it possible for him to put the ball in a receiver’s hands. “Those guys are just crazy good. I go on and on about Manny, Kyle, Marc, all the things these guys do to help me out,” he says, “it’s incredible.” It’s about trust, he says. Knowing that he’ll have a solid pocket to work within, or knowing that his receivers will be able to pick out his passes. “We focused on that over the summer, getting that trust down that I’m comfortable with it,” he says. “Those guys, they make me look really good, but they don’t get as much credit as I think they should.” He says that he just wants to make his teammates look good as well, and that encourages him to play as best he can. “I’m not really focusing on myself ‘oh I want to get a scholarship to this school or I want to get a scholarship to this school,’” says Woods. “I want to help my teammates get those scholarships and make them look good, and if this is what I got to do, this is what I want to do.” [ more WOODS page 13 ]

Seattle Impact FC soccer coaches gone from team BY ROSS COYLE rcoyle@kenterporter.com
Seattle Impact FC coaches Jason Dunn and Todd Haley have left the arena soccer team just days before the team’s season opener at the ShoWare Center. The change will leave Dion Earl as the team’s owner, coach and star player. Earl declined to comment on the abrupt
changes. The Impact, the newest member of the 23team Major Arena Soccer League, open the season at 7:30 p.m. Saturday against San Diego, 14-time indoor soccer champion. According to Dunn, Earl hadn’t paid either coach for their work when they asked for their checks on the contractually obligated Oct. 25 deadline.
The teamwork and coordination the o-line used was most visible for him in the fourth quarter of the game against Tahoma, when the Royals came back from a touchdown deficit to win 42-36. “Something changed and throughout the fourth quarter we were just dominating. That was a big game, that was a playoff spot on the line, so that’s one thing that I’ll remember.” But Woods also says one of his most memorable experiences during the season was when, during K-M’s match against Auburn, when he accompanied offensive coordinator Andy Romine into the field box when he was injured. Being up in the box gave him a different perspective on how his team played, and it stuck with him ever since. “I got to see the game from a whole different angle,” he says. “I still play seeing things from the box.”
Federal Way cruises past Royals 77-21 Chico McClatcher ran for 354 yards and six touchdowns, leading Federal Way High past Kent-Meridian 77-21 in a South Puget Sound League 4A crossover seeding game at Federal Way Stadium last Friday night. The Eagles (7-2) host Mariner in a regional playoff game this week. K-M (6-3) travels to take on Gig Harbor (8-1), the Narrows League champion, in the district playoffs at 7 p.m. Friday. McClatcher, one of the state’s top running backs, broke free on scoring runs from 59, 55 and 54 yards out for Federal Way. The Eagles exploded for 35 fourth-quarter points. Shamar Malik Wooleiry returned a kickoff 85 yards for a touchdown and added scoring runs from 1 and 2 yards out for the Royals. Elsewhere: At Kentwood 31, Beamer 21: Isaiah Williams ran for 185 yards and two touchdowns and Brian Campbell threw for two more as the Conquerors (8-1) defeated
a great work ethic. He’s working his butt off trying to make this thing work. But he’s a totally different person than he was 24 years ago.” Dunn and Earl go back more than 20 years when they played together at Seattle Pacific University. “He was a great guy at SPU, we played on the U23
state team,” Dunn said. Dunn said that his departure was unrelated to Earl’s sexual harassment protection order that recently was filed in King County Superior Court. He’s attempting to get his job back with Lowe’s Hardware. “I’m trying to get back in good graces with the job I was in,” Dunn said. “He
(Earl) put me in that situation, and he doesn’t care.” Ultimately, Haley said he’ll be staying away from the Impact because of how he was treated by Earl and that it wasn’t acceptable to him as a person. “The mistreatment of human beings … you don’t treat people like that,” Haley said.

Dunn said that Earl released him over email, but then left several messages asking him to return to the team on Monday, Oct 27. By then, Dunn had finalized his choice. “To have him come out and do this to me, really just shows me the type of character he actually is,” Dunn said. “He still has
the Titans (6-3) in an SPSL crossover seeding game at French Field last Friday night. Kentwood struck early and often with a rushing and passing touchdown in the first quarter. The first score was a 33-yard run by Williams. The second came on a 68-yard pass from Campbell to wide receiver Connor Benson. The Conquerors open the district playoffs at home against Bellarmine Prep (6-3) at 7 p.m. Saturday at French Field. If Kentwood wins, it will advance to the first round of the state tournament that begins Nov. 14. At Kentlake 47, Decatur 24: Danstan Kaunda and Tino Wells each ran for a pair of touchdowns as the Falcons (4-5) beat the Gators (1-8) at French Field on Oct. 30. Trey Helgeson threw one TD and ran for another for Kentlake. Kentridge 7, at Mount Rainier 6: The Chargers (18) avoided a winless season with a narrow win over the Rams (1-8) at Highline Stadium on Oct. 30.

Add some color to your landscape Oregon Grape (Mahonia) used by cedar waxwing, robins, towhees This native plant is now easy to find at local nurseries and there are several new varieties with larger blooms and more robust growth. Oregon grape is an excellent evergreen for dry shade and the holly-like leaves offer a safe winter haven for birds while the berries provide nourishment.
Maple Trees (Acer Family) used by finches, nuthatches, warblers, woodpeckers Not only do maples add fall and summer color but they will also attract insects that will feed the birds all year round. In our climate, the smaller leaf maples like the Japanese maples and the larger leaf maples like the spectacular Sunset maple will thrive despite hosting a population of aphid, borers or beetles that are natural protein sources for the birds. Maple trees also offer seeds, nesting sites and nest building material.
Snowberry (Symphoricarpos) used by cedar waxwings, grosbeaks, robins, thrushes, towhees Showy white berries stand out on the bare branches all winter long and this native plant thrives on rainfall alone making it a great choice for a landscape without a sprinkler system. The fruit is not as tasty as other options so the birds will save this meal until the dead of winter when not much else is hanging around.

The beginning of November means there is still time to add winter color for you and berries for the birds to your landscape.

forget to fill and clean feeders during cold weather. Honeysuckle (Lonicera): used by chickadees, finches, robins, cat birds and thrushes Evergreen and deciduous versions of the honeysuckle vine are of great value to the many birds that use their flowers, fruit and insects. Honeysuckle also provides winter shelter amidst the tangle of the vining limbs. The fragrant summer flowers will attract hummingbirds while the winter and fall berries feed small birds all winter. Viburnums: used by cardinals, grosbeaks, robins, sparrows, thrushes and towhees Viburnums are a wide ranging family of shrubs that come in evergreen and deciduous forms and they love to grow in the naturally acid soil and wet winter weather of Western Washington. All but the snowball type of viburnum will provide winter berries and the evergreen viburnums offer dense foliage for winter shelter.
