The Eastside could see a lot more cougars in its future as Bellevue College and Washington State University officials are exploring the possibility of a partnership between the two schools. In an effort to meet the increasing financial needs of the college's rapidly growing enrollment, Bellevue College's Board of Trustees unanimously voted to authorize the school's president, David L. Rule, to explore potential financial partnerships, including with Washington State University. Rule told the Reporter he and his staff were approached by WSU president Elson S. Floyd in

November, when Floyd pitched the idea of a potential union of the two colleges. "It's a very logical conversation," Rule said. "We're still the community's college. But we need to find out if the grass is actually greener on the other side." Floyd said there's been ongoing conversations within the state’s higher education sector to find affordable four-year degree programs. With its increasing student population, enrollment, infrastructure and growth potential, Bellevue College was an ideal target. "We're trying to figure out how the two- and four-year programs can work for students," Floyd said SEE PARTNERSHIP, 6

Issaquah looks at costs, options in transportation plan BY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

@IssReporter

Issaquah Mayor Fred Butler stood before local business leaders last week to, for the second time of his career as city executive, give his forecast for the year ahead. “I remember being here a year ago in front of all of you, giving my (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) analysis — with one week as mayor,” Butler said, making a face playfully mimicking anxiety. “A lot has happened in a year. “Every day our community is evolving. … To keep up with these changes, our government has evolved also.” Members of the Issaquah Chamber of Commerce convened at the Holiday Inn

Jan. 8 for the organization’s annual Preview Luncheon. In addition to providing a look at upcoming networking events and business education programs, the event is an opportunity for the private sector to listen to their public sector counterparts in city government and schools highlight accomplishments from the year past and make forecasts for the year ahead. For the municipal government’s part, Butler said the city had made strides in permitting processes — noting that the land use permitting process had been cut from 160 to 80 days — the promotion of tourism and fiscal strength, while keeping its eye on obstacles such as traffic, homelessness,

Which comes first: the plan or the money for the plan? On Tuesday evening, the Issaquah City Council will vote on an updated transportation concurrency plan that was crafted to simplify the city’s work with developers and create new funding sources.

Normally, traffic concurrency is a dry and wonkish obligation of the state’s Growth Management Act to ensure cities don’t grow beyond what their infrastructure (primarily roads, but legally including public spaces, schools and fire protection facilities) can handle. With a plan in place, developers apply for new construction, cities determine how they fit into the city’s infrastructure under an established procedure and no one is caught unprepared.

But Issaquah staff have projected $304 million in infrastructure costs, largely around the site of the Central Issaquah Plan, through the year 2030. Of those costs, $191 million are unaccounted for, with no attached revenues in the proposed concurrency plan. Of that, $119 million come from anticipated traffic improvements alone.

Police seize stolen sports gear BY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Issaquah police on Jan. 7 seized a large amount of property that was stolen, expensive and enjoys the company of white powder. That's right: winter sports gear. According to a department press release issued Monday morning, officers from Issaquah PD, Cle Elum police, the Major Crimes Task Force and deputies from the Kittitas County Sheriff 's Office arrested a 55-year-old Ronald, Wash. man on Jan. 7 for possession and trafficking of stolen merchandise. Issaquah police are in charge of the investigation, but charges have been filed by the Kittitas County prosecutor, Issaquah Det. Brian Horn said. The defendant, the owner of a sporting goods business in Ronald, is alleged to have appropriated the recovered portion

of $150,000 in equipment taken during the November theft of a trailer from an Issaquah-area competitor. Police recovered $48,000 of equipment during the arrest. "Kittitas County has filed formal charges and will prosecute the matter," Horn wrote in an email to The Reporter. "I can tie the property to our burglary, but cannot tie this suspect to that crime. His role comes with the new charges of Possession of and Trafficking in Stolen Property." Ronald is an unincorporated Census Designated Place — just west of Roslyn, Wash. — with approximately 265 residents as of the 2000 United States Census. While investigating the man, police believed he could be reselling the stolen merchandise. A customer sent to the business purchased a backpack at approximately $500 below market value, in cash, with no receipt. Police used the backpack's serial number to determine it had come from the Is-

Another school threatened; police search, clear campus It looks like Pacific Cascade Middle School isn't the only area campus dealing with anonymous written threats. Pine Lake Middle School of Sammamish was evacuated the afternoon of Jan. 9 after a student discovered a note

in the boys bathroom that referenced a bomb, according to an email sent by Principal Michelle Caponigro. Law enforcement officers with bomb-sniffing K-9 units searched and cleared the campus within hours, having found no dangerous materials. The discovery occurred near the end of the school day. Students were escorted to

arriving buses and driven home as usual. "We have reason to believe this is not a credible threat," Caponigro wrote as officers searched the campus. Students not taking the bus were escorted to the nearby park-and-ride for pick-ups. School began normally Monday and staff will notify parents of any developments in the case, Caponigro said.

King County and The Trust for Public Land are taking the last few steps in a two-year-long journey to permanently preserve more than 200 acres of Cascade foothills forestland. Coveted for its ecological value, including sheltering the headwaters of a salmon-bearing stream, 226 acres of land on Squak Mountain was purchased by the trust in 2014 for $5 million. "Successes like Squak Mountain are at the heart of our mission to give everyone a great park close to home," said Paul Kundtz, Washington State Director of The Trust for Public Land. "It's been intensely rewarding to be able to work with the great team at King County and achieve this wonderful outcome for the people of Issaquah." King County previously purchased about half of the total acreage from the trust. In December, the county made its second and final payment to the trust, concluding the transaction and bringing the acreage into public ownership. The property was purchased with King County Parks Levy regional open space funds, Conservation Futures funds, and real estate excise taxes. The forestland remains closed to the public while King County Parks crews prepare the site for public use, including property clean-up, removing infrastructure and establishing trail routes. The property should be open to hiking in the springtime, and King County Parks will begin a public planning process to help determine future uses for the property, which is being added to the County’s Cougar-Squak Corridor.

Northwest Inboards captures dealership award New Issaquah firm honored for sales, customer service BY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

A nascent Issaquah boat dealership has already been recognized for exceptional sales and customer service. Northwest Inboards, opened in May by Lake Sammamish native Darren Lamont, received two Best New Dealership awards from manufacturers Axis Wake and Supra. The awards were given based on sales and customer feedback, Lamont said. Lamont has worked in the watersports industry for more than 20 years, beginning when he was 13 years old. He took a job from Herb O’Brien, working at O’Brien’s HO Sports manufacturing business in Redmond. His goal? To save up for a new slalom ski and kneeboard. “I grew up skiing and wakeboarding on Lake Sammamish and in Eastern Washington,” Lamont said. “It’s always been a part of my and my family’s life. “I say this all the time, but it’s totally true: I would say it’s one of the only sports that you can do with a family or group of friends where everyone is involved, whether you’re the person on skis, or driving the boat

Darren Lamont won two Best New Dealership awards from boat manufacturers Axis Wake and Supra. or spotting the person on skis. It’s an individual sport when you’re behind the boat, but it’s a team activity when everybody’s there.” Lamont made watersports his life and his career, working for HO and Hyperlite Wake. It was all he had known, and a few years ago he considered stepping out in a new direction. Then Paul Gregoire — the president of Bakes Marine and “friendly competition,” as he put it, to Lamont — offered him an option: To become the owner of his own boat dealer, based out of Bakes. “It’s something I’ve al-

ways dreamed about doing, having my own boat dealership,” Lamont said. His father was a business owner and he felt he had his own opportunity to have the freedom that comes with building one’s own livelihood. Of course, the opportunity hasn’t come without difficulties. Lamont said he’s still learning how to balance the time he puts into the business with his personal life. But he’s equipped with the knowledge shared from his past and current mentors in the industry, including O’Brien

and Bakes owner Bill Baker, he said. Now Lamont is looking forward to running his business during what should be its first legitimate busy season. “We have the Seattle Boat Show coming up in January (23 to Feb. 1) and that accounts for 30 to 35 percent of business for the year (at Bakes),” he said. “It will be our first boat show … since we opened our doors after last year’s, so I’m very excited.” Daniel Nash: 425-391-0363 ext. 5052; dnash@issaquahreporter.com

EDITORIAL

Bellevue College, WSU arrangement would be good news for students

N

ews of a possible partnership — maybe a merger — between Bellevue College and Washington State University is good news for Issaquah and Sammamish residents. If it happens, it will make getting a highquality education easier — and less expensive. Bellevue College — no longer “just” a community college — has a well-deserved reputation for providing quality instruction for degrees that lead straight into well-paying jobs. WSU is one of the state’s major research universities and already has an association with BC through its online degree program. As any parent knows, the cost of getting a college education has been rising precipitously over the past few years, not only from the cost of tuition, but also books and living expenses. Being able to better control the cost of at least one of those factors — not having to go away to school — can significantly lessen the concern of graduating college with a heavy debt. Bellevue College has, for years, helped local students control costs by providing the first two years of a four-year education through an easy commute to the school’s Bellevue campus just off Interstate 90. It’s worked. In the last year, 309 BC graduates were accepted to attend Washington State University in Pullman. In addition, 392 BC students were accepted to University of Washington’s main campus and 200 more to its Bothell campus. Even better for students here, the college owns property in the Issaquah Highlands for a future branch campus. There are lots of steps and discussions yet to come for both BC and WSU. What’s needed, of course, is a win-win situation for both schools. And, of course, for students as well. — Craig Groshart, Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter

A different Inslee takes on Legislature

G

ov. Jay Inslee says he approached the upcoming session of the Legislature “very differently” than he did in his first two years as the state’s chief executive. In 2014, he talked about the need to hold steady and allow the recession to recede enough for residents and businesses to begin righting themselves. He offered an array of policy ideas and nudged lawmakers to pass them. When they didn’t act on a transportation package he sounded politely frustrated. And when they left Olympia on time, he couldn’t contain his pleasure. Inslee stopped holding steady in midDecember when he put forth arguably the largest — friends say boldest — taxand-spend proposal of any governor in state history. His desire to inject billions of adJERRY ditional dollars into public schools and CORNFIELD the transportation system and pay for it with proceeds from new taxes on carbon emissions and capital gains is the kind of stuff Inslee’s stoutest allies have been waiting to see from him since he took office. Inslee is smart enough to know it won’t be easy to get his ambitious agenda through a Republican-controlled Senate with any of its signature pieces intact, let alone in its entirety. He says his ideas are intended to start a conversation with lawmakers so now he will be watched closely to see how he carries on the conversation. Inslee’s been criticized for not engaging deeply enough in the rigors of negotiating agreements and, when he does submerge himself, it’s

?

Question of the week: “Do you consider yourself a Seahawks fan?”

not as an arbiter or mediator, but as a partisan participant. With two years under his belt, he’s expecting a different tack this session. “I know legislators better,” he said. “Having longer relationships help.” In the meantime, what transpires in this session will be part of the foundation on which the 2016 gubernatorial election will be conducted. That adds an intriguing and different element to the session as well. Inslee — and any Republican state lawmaker contemplating a challenge to the Democratic governor — will want to be viewed by the public as a uniting, not polarizing figure. Yet, at the same time, they can’t be tabbed as sellouts by the grassroots of their own parties. There are those eyeing Inslee through the prism of politics and think he has the most to lose by what occurs this session. Some might even think it will make or break his chances at re-election. “The people who have the most to lose here are our grandchildren. They are in great jeopardy,” Inslee said, his voice braced with passion as he slipped easily into a rhetorical rhythm about his agenda. Doing nothing this session puts four- and five-year-olds in Washington in jeopardy of not getting access to early childhood education, growing up in a cleaner environment and being able to get to work, he said. “They are the people at risk here, not me,” he said.

substance abuse and mental illness. Regarding tourism, Butler pointed to the communication department’s November launch of the “Legendary Issaquah” campaign, a series of three TV spots featuring Sasquatch and shot at city locales and during entertainment events like Salmon Days over the course of summer and early fall. The videos had reached RON 650,000 THIELE people in the western United States and Canada, he said. Indeed, as of Jan. 13 and nearly two months after their initial release, the “Legendary Issaquah” spots had become the second, third and fourth most viewed videos — behind a 2013 mock DUI spot produced at Issaquah High School — on the city of Issaquah YouTube channel, with more than 50,000 views combined. In 2015, Butler said the city would work to preserve Olde Town, recruit new businesses, explore housing options for the Central Issaquah Plan area and continue the financial practices that earned a Standard & Poor’s AAA bond rating in May. “During this evolution, one thing that has remained unchanged is our service excellence,” Butler said. Speaking for the Issaquah School District, Supt. Ron Thiele emphasized the value of schools to the economic prosperity of their service areas. Public schools attract businesses, families and maintain property values, he said. He also boasted of the area’s “highest PTSA membership in the state.” In 2014, the district completed three collective bargaining agreements, had seen success with elementary literacy programs, rolled out computerized evaluations systems for teachers and administrators and installed a generator at district offices to ensure continued operations during blackouts — a problem that repeatedly plagued the city during windstorms over the course of the year. Looking toward 2015, Thiele said serious planning had begun on the alternative school that will

replace Tiger Mountain Community High School and that training continued to familiarize teachers with federal Common Core standards. Acknowledging popular criticism of the Common Core, Thiele said he had faith that Issaquah students could rise to the new expectations. “We’ve been through this before: We saw it in the early ‘90s, with education reform,” he said, referring to the 1994 reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act under the Clinton administration. Addressing the written threats found at Pacific Cascade Middle School three days before winter break, Thiele said life at the campus was returning to normal and that campuses would see updated access protocols, including key cards, electronic locks and video surveillance. “I absolutely believe our schools are safe and we have years of … data confirming that,” Thiele said. “Schools and school buses are still among the safest places to be.” The true challenge facing the district in the future, Thiele said, is the potential for the rapid growth of the student population to outpace construction of new facilities. Approximately 550 additional students enrolled in district schools in the past year and the district projects up to 2,000 new students over the next five. Complicating matters is the passage of voter Initiative 1351 in the 2014 general election. The initiative, which requires full funding for the measure by 2017 but identifies no funding source, mandates limited class sizes at all grade levels. Implementation will force the district to scramble for more classrooms and more teachers — to the tune of 100 classrooms beyond the scope of current construction projects, Thiele said. Regardless, the superintendent added that “Our future as a school system and community is very bright.”

That situation has made some members of the city council anxious. Randy Young, a consultant hired by the city from Henderson Young & Co. of Redmond to assist in the crafting of the bill, said such a funding gap was not out of the norm. “Is this unusual that a city embarks on this type of exercise?” Councilmember Stacy Goodman asked Young in the midst of a lengthy discussion on the gap at the council’s Jan. 12 work session. “It’s not very typical, no,” Young said, noting that most Puget Sound cities don’t treat their projected growth as being spoken for. The spoken for growth in question is assigned to the Central Issaquah Plan, a prominent piece of 2012 legislation concerning the 1,100 acres surrounding the Interstate 90 corridor. The area extends from the base of the Highlands and Lake Sammamish State Park to Newport Way and Holly Street. That plan was designed to unify an area of decentralized commercial

properties into a planned urban core over 20 years, using land rezones and streamlined permitting and review processes to drive development straight to Issaquah’s gut. Consequently the city’s Development Services department, in crafting the transportation concurrency updates, tailored growth and traffic projections to the city’s great expectations for that area and projected little growth outside of it. Thus those great expectations became an additional wrinkle in the city’s discussions over transportation concurrency — though such considerations are not a required part of concurrency under the Growth Management Act, as noted by Council President Paul Winterstein. At the Dec. 8 work session, Young identified new sales taxes, road levies, property tax-funded bonds and local fees on car tabs and business licenses as potential revenue sources that, combined, would more than cover the $191 million. At the time, he noted that those measures could be a difficult

sell to the public: Voters would need to sign off on the measures that involved local taxes, as well as any car tab fee above $20. On Jan. 12, Young asserted citizens would likely act in their own interest as needs became apparent. “At some point, people become fed up enough with transportation they’re willing to pay for it,” he said. But Councilmember Joshua Schaer had a different perspective: “I’m hoping we can address that before they’re fed up.” A major change to Issaquah’s plan, if approved, is the institution of a manyfold increase on traffic impact fees imposed on new development. For example, a developer building a singlefamily home currently pays $1,760 in traffic impact fees but would pay $7,904 under the new plan. Questioned regarding the amount of the fees, Young said he did not think they were “artificially low.” Rather, traffic impact fees

can legally, as dictated by the Growth Management Act, only recover the traffic costs reasonably associated with a development project. In road-congested Issaquah, where 70 percent of car trips are people just passing through town according to Development Services Director Charlie Bush, that means those revenues are a drop in the bucket. “We still have a transportation problem if nobody comes (to new developments in the city),” Councilmember Mary Lou Pauly said. It was a point where she and Schaer were in agreement, though Pauly added that she did not share Schaer’s concerns about the funding gap. Councilmember Tola Marts likewise asserted it was not an immediate concern: “I don’t think we’re going to go away, pat ourselves on the backs and, four to five years from now, say ‘Hey, didn’t we need to come up with 120 million bucks?’” Daniel Nash: 425-391-0363

What’s happening in Issaquah and Sammamish

FISH to screen film on Elwha

Friends of the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery will offer a screening of the film “Return of the River” (The Elwha) on Thursday, Feb. 20, in the Watershed Science Center at the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery. The film follows a group of people as they attempt to change the public opinion of a town, and eventually the nation, to bring a dam down. The community comes to a consensus, setting the Elwha River free and showing the way to a more sustainable future. The film is produced by Jessica Plumb and co-directed by Jessica Plumb and John Gussman. The screening is open to the public. Doors will open at 6 p.m. and the program will begin at 6:30 p.m. The film runs 70 minutes. There will be a sampling of salmon hors d'oeuvres and a discussion following the viewing. The event is free, but contributions will be accepted. The Friends of the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery are a volunteer and membership based nonprofit organization dedicated to the preservation of the historic Issaquah Salmon Hatchery.

Encompass will offer a free 9-week workshop beginning Jan. 21 to help teachers develop executive function skills in children under their care. “Preparing the adults who care for and work with young children is critical to helping children develop the skills they need to make good decisions, participate in school and adapt flexibly to new situations," said Kerry Beymer, parenting support and education manager at Encompass. For more information and to register for the workshop, early learning professionals can contact Beymer at 425-8882777 or Kerry.beymer@encompassnw.org.

PSE customers raise $18,250

Hundreds of PSE electric customers helped make a significant contribution in feeding local families this past holiday season.

of his initial conversations with Rule. "We're just beginning to explore ways in which the two institutions can work in a very collaborative way." If any joint venture is to be developed, whether it be to emerge as a combination two-year and four-year university or some kind of hybrid college, Rule said the campus still will have open enrollment as well as low-cost tuition and continue to offer adult basic education, English as a second language and other low-cost classes focused on helping people better their education. "My role is to maintain those in these conversations while enhancing our students’ opportunities," Rule said. "We want to offer as many pathways as possible for people to achieve their academic goals." Floyd echoed Rule's sentiment, stating new opportunities for students are paramount as these conversations continue. For years Bellevue College has served as a "feeder" school to the state's fouryear universities. In the past year 392 students were accepted to the University of Washington's main campus, 200 were accepted to its Bothell campus and 309 graduates were accepted to attend Washington State University in Pullman.

degree in chemical engineering, and has taken continuing education courses in public policy and business administration. He volunteers with several public and nonprofit organizations. He also serves on the city of Sammamish Planning Commission and has been on the board of the Together Center and on A Regional Coalition for Housing’s (ARCH) Citizen Advisory Board. He has been a resident of Sammamish and a district ratepayer since 2005. His two sons attend Skyline High School and Discovery Elementary School.

While the conversation has just started, Rule was optimistic about the potential partnership and the college's future, he said. Other potential solutions Rule and his staff are exploring stem from questions whether the school could become a standalone university or continue as is within the community college structure. The latter option seems unlikely as the school's need to grow has not kept up with state funding. Over the course of the next several months, both presidents' teams will identify ways in which they think will provide the optimal partnership opportunities, Floyd said. As the conversations continue, Rule's team will simultaneously investigate the potential of building on-campus housing for students and a possible overhaul of its sports facilities. During last week's meeting, Spectrum Solutions unveiled its preliminary student housing feasibility study. If school officials decide to pursue the proposed 145,000 square foot, $44.2 million project, it would include 350 beds divided up into an "apartment style" housing development of single rooms as well as twoand four-bedroom units. Each would come fully furnished with rental rates of about $900 a month, which would include all of

the tenants utilities, according to the proposal. Of the three sites examined for the proposed housing facility, Spectrum Solutions' Hal Ferris told the board the land near the school's baseball field was by far the best because it already had the infrastructure for water, sewer and electricity. Currently a parking lot, the loss of spaces would be "minimal" compared to other sites owned by the college, Rule said. Ferris said the school could make roughly $400,000 annually from the rents beyond its operating services and debt. The board also was presented with several options for a new 158,000 squarefoot soccer and softball field along with a 14,019 squarefoot field house. Projected at roughly $12 million, the new facility, which would be built below the school's baseball field, could feature indoor batting cages, golf simulators, meeting rooms, classrooms, concessions, box office and capacity for rooftop seating. Board members said they needed time to speak with students, the school foundation and Bellevue officials to determine the level of interest and whether the costs could be met for both projects. If WSU and Bellevue College do form a partnership, it could serve as a large financial source to help pay for both. Josh Stilts: 425-453-4290; jstilts@bellevuereporter.com

Skyline basketball tops Issaquah in showdown

BY SHAUN SCOTT ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Skyline Spartans boys basketball head coach Bill McIntyre shouted words of instruction at the top of his lungs throughout the fourth quarter during his team's rivalry contest against the Issaquah Eagles. Unfortunately for McIntyre, his directives couldn't be heard by his players down the stretch due to the raucous crowd noise in the Issaquah High School gymnasium. "I was yelling for plays every time but they couldn't hear me," McIntyre said. "I didn't really do much in terms of coaching. They just took it on their own shoulders and guys stepped up and made some big shots." The Spartans, who trailed the Eagles 63-54 midway through the fourth quarter, outscored the Eagles 22-10 to finish the game with a 76-73 win on Jan. 9. Skyline improved its overall record to 6-5 with the win while Issaquah dropped to 8-4. Robert Biegaj scored a team-high 26 points for Skyline and played a pivotal role in his team's comeback in the fourth stanza. Biegaj hit two three-

Biegaj buried a three-pointer as the shot clock expired with 3:22 left in regulation, giving Skyline a 66-63 lead. "We just stayed together. That is the biggest key of our team. We stay together, trust our system and trust our game-plan," Biegaj said. "It's an amazing feeling. We played them in fall league and we noticed some mistakes that we

had made. I'm glad we came out here and fixed it and I'm glad we pulled it out." Skyline couldn't contain Issaquah guard Tyler Gibson. Gibson scored a team-high 26 points in the loss. "Gibson had a great game. 'Did he miss? Did he have 40 (points)?' Both teams played well. We were fortunate SEE SKYLINE, 8

reams of making a return trip to the Tacoma Dome are undoubtedly ingrained in the minds of the Issaquah Eagles boys basketball team. Flash back to 10 months ago: The Issaquah Eagles hoisted a third place trophy at the Class 4A state basketball tournament at the Tacoma Dome. The Eagles nearly advanced to the championship game, losing to the Garfield Bulldogs 61-59 in the semifinals in a contest featuring 18 lead changes and 19 ties. Following the loss to Garfield, the Eagles made a statement with 60-49 win against the Todd Beamer Titans in the third place/fourth place game. The 2014-15 boys basketball season is essentially at its halfway point and SHAUN the Eagles are proving themselves to be SCOTT a contender to return to the Class 4A state tournament at the Tacoma Dome in two months. The Eagles have put together an overall record of 8-4 including a 7-1 record in KingCo league play thus far. If the Eagles do indeed make the 40-mile trek down the Interstate 5 corridor this March, it will be behind their swarming defense and attention to detail on both sides of the floor. Issaquah flexed its proverbial muscle against one of their oldest rivals, conquering the Newport Knights SEE REDZONE, 8

BY SHAUN SCOTT ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

A 47-45 loss to the Rainier Beach Vikings boys basketball team in the Class 3A state championship game last March serves as a pillar of motivation for the Eastside Catholic Crusaders boys team. Crusaders' senior shooting guard Max Hudgins, who will play basketball at Westmont College in Southern California next season, said the loss is on the mind of everyone associated with the Eastside Catholic boys basketball program. "We think about it every day. We just

The Eagles split their next two contests, registering a 75-62 win against the Bothell Cougars on

want to be that much better this year than we were last year," Hudgins said. The Crusaders have put together a respectable 11-2 record through the first half of the 2014-15 season. The Crusaders only losses were to First MAX Baptist Academy HUDGINS and Rainier Beach. Hudgins said his ability to knock down shots from the perimeter is his best attribute. "Shooting definitely is what I do best. I think I have a pretty quick release, which allows me to get my shot off quickly," he said. Recently the Issaquah Reporter had an opportunity to ask Hudgins a few

Jan. 6 before suffering a 76-73 loss to the Skyline Spartans on Jan 9. The backcourt consisting of co-captains Tyler Gibson and Jason Crandall set the tone for the Eagles in all aspects of the game. They’re great shooters from the perimeter and play a tough, hard-nosed defensive style that permeates throughout the rest of the squad. The 2014-15 season still is fairly young, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see the Issaquah Eagles to punch their ticket to the state tournament for the second consecutive season.

requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (re- ceipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quan- tity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the de- livery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.
