WOMEN’S MAYORAL MOVEMENTCity closes sale of 2 key blocks downtown
Boy dies, two others injured in car crash
A 5-year-old boy died Monday morning after a one-car accident on Highway 164 east of Auburn in the early morning hours of Sunday, Dec. 29.
The driver, a 21-year-old Pacif-ic man, is in ICU at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.
STAFF REPORTS
The City of Auburn has sold two key blocks on Division Street ad-jacent to the Sound Transit station to Teutsch Partners LLC for nearly $1.75 million.
Teutsch, one of the leading mixed-use developers in the Pacific
Northwest, has said it intends to develop the properties with mixed-use residen-tial and retail, thus completing the six-block downtown catalyst area.
Construction on the blocks inside the City’s downtown redevelopment district should begin in the fall of 2014.
“Our City Council began (its) visioning process for our down-town 10 years ago,” said Auburn Mayor Pete Lewis. “This final sale helps that vision to revitalize our downtown come to fruition.”

Backus makes history, poised to make her mark as City’s first female mayorBY ROBERT WHALE
From her earliest days, Nancy Backus threw herself into community-based ac-tivities, from grade-school bowl-a-thons and junior high school bike-a-thons to high school DECA.
In time, Backus’ native inclination blossomed into a full-blown passion for politics, leading her to accept Jeanne Barber’s old seat on the Auburn City Council in 2004 and from there to win two successive terms on the council in her own right.
As she’ll tell you, however, love for politics does not mean love for politi-cians.
What Backus never has been, never will be, she says, is a politician of the backslapping, glad-handing stripe, more in love with titles, honorifics and the perks of office than with getting things done for people.
“Politician denotes something nega-tive now for most people, and in most people’s minds, when you call someone a politician, it’s not necessarily a compli-ment,” Backus said.

Leanne Guier remembers the low point.It came more than a year ago when Guier
– then the Pacific City Council president – and the rest of the council struggled to
keep the City afloat after losing its insurance because of the mismanagement of former mayor Cy Sun.
While holding out hope that a last-min-ute insurance deal could save Pacific, Guier braced for the worst-case scenarios, among
them a possible annexation by Auburn and disincorporation of the City altogether.
“I remember basically being on the verge of tears, wondering if the City was still going to exist,” Guier said. “Dec. 26, 2012 was when we found out we were actually going to have insurance still. Two months prior to that I’m having meetings as council president with the mayor of Auburn and

Business offers therapeutic salt baths in a tankBy ROBERT WHALE
Corklike, in a closed 4-by-8 foot sensory deprivation tank, I bob.
Almost weightless, as on the Dead Sea, in water suffused with 1,000 pounds of Epsom-salt, heated to the surface tempera-ture of the skin.
Hearing nothing but my own heart, seeing nothing, catch-ing only the faint bite of salt in the nose, man and mind are left alone to contend with each other.
At first, that’s not a comfort-able thing.
Twenty minutes in, the mind, accustomed to its daily gobsmacking of sensory input, starts to nicker and paw.
“Look here, body,” says mind, “you’ve had your fun, but don’t you have something else to do?”
For this first encounter, I manage only 30 of the 60 minutes that constitute a regular session.
I expect to stay in longer next time.
Phillip McGraw, who opened U-Float at 124 E. Main St. a
month ago, said becoming aware of the constant back-ground noise we don’t know occupies our mind every day and helping us still it is one of the tank’s key virtues.
McGraw said the benefits to mind and body are many and profound.
“Given the buoyancy of the body, it counters about 85 per-cent of gravity,” McGraw said. “This allows your spine to de-compress up to about one inch, so it takes gravity’s effects off of your discs and your joints. And since there’s so much Epsom salt
in there – 20 bags per tank – it’s a natural inflammatory for sore muscles and inflamed joints. It drives toxins out of the body, like the lactic acids you have after a hard workout. And the body heals four times faster than with mere bed rest.
“Along with that you have reduced cortisone levels and the brain produces endorphins and dopamines, which are our natu-ral anti-depressants,” McGraw said.
Jonathan Lilly, a physicist at the National Institute of Health, wondering in the early 1950s
what would happen if one were to shut off all sensory input to the brain, invented the sen-sory deprivation tank. Most of his colleagues believed that a person inside such a tank would drop off right away to sleep.
Lilly worked up some crude versions of the deprivation tank. In the 1970s he began work-ing with people who owned a company called Samadhi, which would become the pioneer of the commercial end of the invention.
McGraw understands that, despite the sensory deprivation tank’s nearly 60 years in exis-tence, many people still dismiss it as “mere hippy, New Age,” mumbo-jumbo.
“After my first float, I gotta admit, I kind of felt that too,” McGraw said. “Like, ‘that was weird, but how can anything benefit you if you just lie there, doing nothing?’ But what it’s triggered in me since I have done it more is help me realize the power of slowing down in life. What that does is unbeliev-able.”
A typical session, which lasts 60 minutes, costs $65.
When a new customer comes in, McGraw said, the first thing he does is get a bead on that person’s concerns. That done, he takes them to the float rooms to let them have a look at the
equipment.“Many people fear they are
going to be claustrophobic, which a lot of times is a control issue,” McGraw said. “I show them that the door to the tank is not latched – it just lies on the tank and flaps open. If you are uncomfortable, you can float with the door open.”
Before and after each session, customers must shower. No disease-carrying organisms, however, can survive in such a concentration of salt water.
A person can even sleep in one of the tanks.
“I’ve gotten some of the best sleep in my life in the tank. In bed, we toss and turn because our circulation is pinched. There are no pressure points in the tanks, so that allows for increased blood flow as well. It lowers your heart rate and your blood pressure. And it’s all veri-fied by biofeedback and electro-encephalograms,” McGraw said.
So, why hasn’t it caught on?“… The reason this hasn’t shot
into the public perception like it’s doing now is that we’ve never needed it as much as a society as we do now, with all the sensory bombardment that hits us every day,” McGraw said.
Contact McGraw at (206) 427-0609 or at UFloat.org.
Take a dip: Phillip McGraw recently opened U-Float on East Main St., where customers can take a relaxing, soothing, restorative bath in sensory deprivation tanks steeped in Epsom-salt. ROBERT WHALE, Auburn Reporter

Economic Development Manager Doug Lein said that the key to the cur-rent upswing in Auburn is the City’s commitment to rebuild its aging infrastruc-ture.
“Our City Council’s over-sight through our econom-ically-challenging times is what made it possible to be ready for the market-place and is allowing us to attract well-established and capitalized developers like
Teutsch,” Lein said.“When we finished the
promenade in 2012, this is exactly why we did it,” said Mayor-elect Nancy Backus, who as deputy mayor, chaired the City’s Planning and Development Com-mittee. “Our staff worked hard to find the funding for that project to upgrade the infrastructure to attract the type of development we wanted, and now it is paying off.”
This sale follows the Oct. 10 groundbreaking for the Plan A Development/Land-
mark Development on West Main Street, the first of the three developments to get underway. The project calls for a five-story mixture of retail on the base facing West Main Street, and four floors of a high-end finish, high quality, market rate apartment community.
Construction is under-way and should finish by the summer of 2014.
City officials estimate the new developments in the downtown will bring 300-500 new residents to the downtown core and more
than 20,000 square feet of retail space. The developers’ plans call for a combination of market-rate multifamily housing, student housing and senior housing, with ground-floor commercial space and accessory park-ing throughout.
Teutsch Partners, LLC was formed in 1987 as a privately-owned, regionally focused, commercial real estate services and devel-opment company. While continuing to provide corporate real estate advi-sory services to some of the
Pacific Northwest’s promi-nent organizations, Teutsch Partners has developed a diverse portfolio of favor-ably performing commer-cial real estate assets. This portfolio of development expertise includes com-mercial office buildings, industrial parks, retail uses, multi-family residential, mixed-use marina facilities, and medical office build-ings serving both practicing professionals and biotech related research facilities.

his staff and the King Coun-ty Council and their staff to put in safeguards to help the citizens have services if we have no insurance.”
A last-minute reprieve in the form of a new insurance policy kept the City operat-ing into 2013, but it wasn’t until a special election to recall the former mayor was made official in July that Pacific finally escaped Sun’s shadow.
During that time, Guier became the public face of stability in Pacific.
“It was hard at first. When things first started happen-ing, I stayed away,” Guier said. “I didn’t want to talk to anyone. I stayed away from the cameras. But it kind of got to the point where, as the council president, the role emerged as the leader. And it just kind of came on. It wasn’t something that I sought after. It just came to
be from the situations that kept getting put in front of me. I had to look out for the city. That’s what the citizens were expecting of me.”
Following the recall, the council appointed Guier to be the new mayor.
She and her staff contin-ued their work to repair a City Hall that was frac-tured under Sun’s inept administration. The damage included the loss of more than $1 million in road improvement grants and the dismissal of crucial staff positions such as finance director, city clerk, commu-nity development and public works director.
Guier took on the chal-lenge.
“I have to look out for the best interests of the city,” said Guier, the Auburn Re-porter’s Person of the Year, an honor she shares with incoming Auburn Mayor Nancy Backus. “That’s what the council is expecting of me, that’s why they ap-
pointed me.”She admits the City was in
dire straits.“The financial hits to the
City and the pending suits and claims that are out there really surprised me,” she said. “And just exactly where all our projects are, finding out we lost over a $1 mil-lion in grant money for not maintaining those projects, was a big surprise and a heartbreak for the City. But I think we’re going down the right path. We have the right people in place to get those projects up and running again.”
In the six months since the recall, Pacific has ap-pointed a new finance direc-tor, Richard Gould, who is helping to untangle the City’s finances, and a new city clerk.
“Richard came in and in five months reconciled our finances for 2012 and 2013 and got a 2014 budget together,” Guier said. “I feel very fortunate with
everything he’s done. I have a good team. Right now I think we’re doing all right, but I think we can be stronger.”
Guier hopes soon to have “100-percent functioning staff in all departments.” She also wants to upgrade the City’s technology and set up a nonprofit effort under the watch of a board of directors to fund the youth and senior centers.
More work needs to be done, but Guier is pleased with the progress. A new, affordable insurance policy with the Association of Washington Cities went into effect Jan. 1.
“I did the happy dance when I found out about that,” Guier said of the new policy. “It was really exciting. When we actually approved the resolution at the (Dec. 23) meeting, I felt like popping champagne. It was a big deal. It was a big step for moving this City forward.”

● Q U O T E O F N O T E : “Our City Council began (its) visioning process for our downtown 10 years ago. This final sale helps that vision to revitalize our downtown come to fruition.” – Mayor Pete Lewis, on the City’s finalized sale of two downtown key development parcels on South Division Street.

The looming trans-portation crisis, made even more evident by Boeing’s needs recently stated to the governor, is much more complicated than you might think.
Keep in mind that 40 percent of the popula-tion of the state lives in a narrow
corridor from Everett to Tacoma. Add to that more than 80 percent of the state’s gross domestic prod-uct is generated in that area.
On top of that, the open-ing of the widened Panama Canal in 2015 will allow huge ships called Pana-Max
to access the gulf ports and the
Heartland of America, where the bulk of the population lives and bypass our area altogether.
To make things more difficult, Canada, Los Angeles and Mexico have invested billions of dollars in infrastructure for their ports and railroads. They mean to take the Puget Sound port’s business as well and the more than 170,000 jobs
attached to it. Then there’s the real problem of what will happen to the huge number of manufacturers that are located in Puget Sound.
If we lose the shipping contracts with the Pacific Rim countries, then all of the manufacturers located here doing business overseas will begin to relocate to keep their costs down. The reality is ships do not come across the Pacific empty to fill up on a product just for us. They will bring cargoes to new ports

Women take charge on the mayoral front
As we turn the page on 2013 and start a new year, one storyline worth following will be how local female mayors perform and shape the fortunes of their communities.
Suzette Cooke of Kent, Nancy Backus of Auburn and Leanne Guier of Pacific will work to advance their agendas as their cities try to gain traction in an uncertain, slow-moving economy. It is the first time that women will occupy the top job in these three valley cities at the same time.
In Kent, Cooke did enough to convince voters that she was worthy of a third term. A proven leader, Cooke is direct, blunt, and passionate. Disagree if you will with some of
her decisions, Cooke has helped Kent weather a tough economic storm. The recession bit munici-palities hard.
Cooke deserves a thumbs-up for pressing and placing flood preven-tative measures along the
Green River. She also launched the Neigh-borhood Councils program to improve Kent communities, embraced cultural diversity and managed a responsible budget.
Some may argue, but Cooke’s administra-tion has lowered the crime rate and improved police service.
But without much state and federal help, Kent is stuck in the same predicament as other valley cities. It has been unable to repair its deteriorating, crowded roads. Businesses, big and small, continue to suffer. The ShoW-are Center, a prized entertainment venue, has become an albatross around the City’s neck.
Cooke, with her experience and ties to state movers and shakers, has to find solutions.
In Auburn, Backus narrowly became the city’s first female mayor in its 120-year his-tory. She follows Pete Lewis, who, like Cooke, performed admirably in the throes of a brutal recession.
Like Cooke, Backus must resolve a bad-roads problem even as she advances down-town redevelopment and ushers in new business throughout Auburn.
Auburn is in good hands with Backus. She is smart, familiar with the landscape and

Police need to follow the law
Regarding the new driv-ing law taking effect: I agree it is dangerous for people to drive while texting, putting on make-up, reading books and all other kinds of crazy things people do that distracts them while driving.
My problem is that none of the law enforcement personnel will be held accountable since they are exempt from this new law. I find this fact very infuriating.
In my personal experience over a few decades, I have seen police officers cause many in-fractions while driving. I have seen them speed for no reason, speak on a cell phone while driving after the law came into effect, and not even use traffic signals for lane changes, turn-ing a corner or pulling into parking lots.
Why do law enforcement personnel feel they are above the law? Are they not the same as us? Are they not supposed
to follow the laws? Why will they be allowed to “break” the law while I won’t even be able to take a sip of my coffee when I am quite capable of doing so without looking?
I, as well as many others I have heard, am tired of law enforcement, especially with the negative history of the Auburn Police Department over the years, of breaking laws
and regulations and harassing people in public for no reason.
Too many times Auburn officers have broken laws and regulations and have gotten away with it. This needs to stop now.– Laura Hyatt
So, Brunell, what’s your plan?
I’m disappointed that the Auburn Reporter so often lets itself be used as the mouth-piece for the rich few – espe-cially by Don Brunell and the Washington Business Associa-tion.
Recently it was “What’s the plan as we shiver and sweat it out” (Dec. 20), railing against those of us who would rather see our region and nation (and world) produce energy in a way that doesn’t reduce our ability to provide food, clean water and air.
Do you think anybody

REPORTER .comA U B U R N -
passionate about people and their plights. She has served on the City Council since 2004, occupying key com-mittee and alliance-building roles. A 25-year employee of The Boeing Company, she worked as a financial opera-tions manager. That should come in handy when managing a complex, tight City budget.
Guier’s situation is different but no less significant. She took over when former mayor Cy Sun was recalled in June and has helped pick up the pieces of a small city left in financial ruins. The affable Guier has opened up channels of communica-tions and worked tirelessly to help rebuild Pacific’s repu-tation and vitality.
It hasn’t been easy, but Guier’s careful, effective ways will make Pacific better in the long run.
Three women. Three tough jobs. Plenty of prom-ise.
As Cooke, Backus and Guier show, more women are getting into the mayoral business. The valley is just a microcosm of what has gone on elsewhere.
It was a good year for female mayors in 2013. Women in a number of U.S. cities won election or reelec-tion as mayors.
In New York, three of the state’s largest cities – Albany, Rochester and Syracuse – elected women as mayors. Houston reelected Annise Parker. Minneapolis chose
Betsy Hodges. Day-ton, Ohio went with Nan Whaley.
Suffern, N.Y., Cape Coral, Fla., Moorhead, Minn., Norwich, Conn., and Cedar City, Utah are among smaller cities that will welcome their first female
mayors in January.Closer to home, Bremer-
ton reelected Patty Lent.Bellingham’s first woman
mayor, Kelli Linville, took office in 2012.
Marilyn Strickland as-sumed the Tacoma office in 2010.
Women deserve a shot. Historically, they haven’t been given the opportunity.
In 1926, Bertha Knight Landes became Seattle’s first female mayor and the first woman mayor of a major American city. There hasn’t been a female mayor since in the Emerald City.
A good-government cru-sader, Landes fought police corruption and lawless activ-ity. She worked hard against bootleggers and reckless drivers and strictly enforced regulations for dance halls and cabarets. The Civic Au-ditorium, later renovated as the Seattle Opera House, is one of her accomplishments. She appointed qualified professionals to head City departments, improve public transportation and parks, and put the City’s finances in order.
Today, the largest meet-ing room at Seattle City Hall is named in her honor. The tunnel-boring machine used to construct the two-mile Alaskan Way-Viaduct replacement tunnel under downtown Seattle was nick-named “Bertha” after her.
Women make up more than half of the population in the United States but are under-represented in federal, state and local offices.
For whatever reason, women in politics bring a different perspective, an ability to negotiate and com-promise than do their male counterparts.
Women have much to contribute to politics. Given the opportunity, let’s see what they can do for us.

seriously wants our country to “elimi-nate almost 90 percent of its electric-ity?” Has any environmental group said that? Our energy billionaires would like to continue to manage things for their short-term profit. Wouldn’t it be a lot smarter to build an energy industry that has a chance of surviving into the 22nd century?
Mr. Brunell tries the old “it will cost more to change how we do things” ploy.
Yes, it will, but the cost of shifting to sustainable energy now is far lower than the cost of the disaster that will result from our present mismanagement.
Global climate change is here and now, despite what the super-rich want you to believe. What’s your plan, Mr. Brunell? You neglected to mention that in your editorial. I suppose your plan is to “trust us with your money, and every-thing will be all right.”– Tim Drewes
[ LetterS from page 5 ]
and suppliers will move closer to where their exports can go out. Given all of that informa-tion, you would think a transportation plan for the Puget Sound would be easy.
Not so fast.The legislators on the
east side of the state act in a decisive and co-hesive manner. Unless their projects are funded, no transportation bill will pass. Each eastside project chips away at the pot of money absolutely necessary to keep and possibly expand our trade connections. But no package will pass without the votes from the east.
Then there’s the prob-
lem of the legislators. A big election year looms in 2014, and there’s a real concern in the minds of some of the legislators that if they vote for any kind of a tax, they might not get reelected. Given the fact they know the re-ality of the problem with the ports – and those who are voting against them from this side of the state – they are more worried about keeping a job.
Then again there’s Seattle. The city and its immediate satellites want transit, and lots of it. They may not have a united delegation on a host of issues, but on transit they are lockstep, and no package will pass without Seattle.
But King County also
has a need for transit and money to preserve its roads. The county lost so much land in the an-nexations to cities that it first promoted and then realized it lost tax money. They will fight for transit and preservation money to counties in the trans-portation package.
Remember the real reason? A drastic loss of income and jobs is facing us right now. Will our legislators do the right thing or will they work for their own interests? The big clock is ticking down.

That says a lot about how Backus intends to comport herself as Auburn’s next mayor.
When Backus takes the oath at the first City Council meeting of 2014 on Monday at City Hall, she’ll be the first woman in Au-burn’s 120-year history to serve as its chief executive.
Just don’t expect her to harp on the fact.
“It’s an absolute honor to be making history, but I am never going to take this po-sition lightly,” said Backus, who along with Pacific Mayor Leanne Guier is one of the Auburn Reporter’s 2013 Persons of the Year. “I am extremely honored, but I’m also not going to be the type to stand on titles and all that. I’m still Nancy. I’m thrilled to be the mayor and thrilled to be the first fe-male mayor, but along with that comes a lot of responsi-bility, and that’s what I want to focus on.”
As mayor, Backus will draw on lessons her men-tors and heroes, especially her parents, taught her.
“Mom and dad were really hardworking people. They gave me a really good work ethic. They worked very hard to make sure that my brother and I had
everything we needed, not necessarily everything we wanted all the time, but everything we needed. They taught me how to work hard and make things bet-ter,” Backus said.
No doubt there’ll be a bit of wisdom in there handed down by the aunt who served as mayor of a small Kansas town.
“I think the one thing my aunt told me when I was 7 or 8 years old was that she could make a citizen’s ar-rest. I thought, ‘Wow, that’s the coolest thing. My aunt is the mayor, and she can make a citizen’s arrest.’ At 7 or 8 years old, oh my gosh. I always knew I’d be involved somehow, I wasn’t quite sure where.”
Backus found other heroes and mentors among her teachers at Pioneer El-ementary School and South Auburn — now Gildo Rey — Olympic Junior High, and Auburn High School, from which she graduated in 1979. In 1981 she gradu-ated from Green River Community College with an AA in business.
“At the time I had what I thought was a really good paying job working at Piggly Wiggly. I was mak-ing more money than my friends who had continued on in college. I was the first
female boxboy. I loved that work, loved being around people. Finally I moved up to Enumclaw Food Center, where I injured my back and was off work for a year.”
Backus’ worked in food brokerage sales before executing a complete 180 and taking an account-ing job with the Boeing Company. After earning her degree in accounting, she moved to auditing financial statements for benefit plans then spent 10 years on the company’s commercial side. Two years ago, she moved into financial planning.
She described her first foray into active politics.
“I started on the City Council to replace Jeanne Barber, who was one of my mentors. When she said she was going to retire, and would I consider applying for the open position on the council, I didn’t think twice about it. It was such an honor that she had thought about me. I loved that woman. She meant a great deal to me,” Backus said.
“One of the things about Jeanne was that she had a huge heart, and she cared a lot, but she also knew when to call you on your BS. And she could do it in such a
way that you would almost say ‘thank you’ when she was done. Just a class act. She taught me a lot about strength,” Backus said.
Backus is aware of her own reputation as a “nice person,” and how some may interpret it as a weakness.
“I don’t see it as a weak-ness, I see it as a strength,” Backus said. “But if they want to underestimate me because I’m nice, go ahead. But I’m here to serve the city. I do have compassion.
“Mayor Lewis’ saying was that he was an ex-banker. So what will be the com-mon thing for Nancy? That she’ll get choked up when-ever something touching comes up? You know, that’s part of who I am. Yeah, I’m going to get teared up from time to time, but it doesn’t mean that I’m weak, it just means that I care.
“When I first thought about running, I realized that if I had to change who I am for the job, then it wouldn’t be worth having.”

BY SHAWN SKAGER
Watching Seandalynn Faleagafulu on the court one would be hard pressed to guess she has a chronic disease.
In fact, up until just a week ago even Faleagafulu’s teammates on the Auburn girls basketball team had no idea their senior point guard and on-court leader battles Lupus – an autoim-mune disease that compels the immune system to attack the body, resulting in fatigue, hair loss, skin rashes and joint pain.
“I don’t think a lot of people know what she goes through on a daily basis,” Trojans coach Adam Lad-age said. “The girls in the
program already look up to her, I think this will make them look up to her even more and respect what she
does.“She’s first in the gym,
last out,” Ladage said. “She never dogs it, you never
have to yell at her to work harder. And she has all the excuses in the world to not work hard.”
One of the first clues that something was wrong came when Faleagafulu was 8 years old.
“I was balding in certain places, and where I was balding I had scabs,” she said. “It happens to some people who have this. Then I got my ears pierced and the Lupus attacked it. You could tell where it was starting to eat away at my ear.”
Faleagafulu also suffered from constant headaches and fatigue.
Doctors struggled initially to find the cause of her ailments.
“It was frustrating. I went to three different doctors who all said it was different things,” she said.
Finally, Faleagafulu said, her grandmother, Linda Kolze, helped put it all to-gether when she took her to a specialist who diagnosed her with cutaneous Lupus.

Rainier plateau Rugby Club offers u15 team
The Rainier Highlanders Junior Rugby Club begins enrollment of players for its new U15 program on Jan. 4 in Auburn.
“This season we have a real emphasis on trying to create a U15 team which is intended to become the future players for our older team in a few years,” head coach Andy Ramsay said.
The club, with players
from Federal Way, Au-burn, Bonney Lake, Sum-ner, Orting, Enumclaw, Buckley and Puyallup, hosts an informational meeting from 2 to 4 p.m. Jan. 4 at the Auburn Library where parents and prospective players
can learn more about the sport and the club.
The club will also host a free-of-charge rookie player camp for new male and female players to acquaint them with the fundamentals of the game and the skills
needed to play.“The camp will be run
by Rainier coaches and players who will make sure that the attendees are made to feel relaxed and have a fun time,”

Auburn Blast U11 finishes season 16-1
The Auburn Youth Soccer Association Blast U11 girls team finished up its season earlier this month with a 16-1 record and a semi-final appearance in the Sports Authority Washington Youth Soccer Recreational Cup tournament.
The Blast, with players from Auburn, Covington, Bonney Lake and Puyallup, soared into the tourney with the District 3 title and won the quarterfinal game 3-2 on penalty kicks.
At the Recreational Cup, the Blast were unable to overcome the Kirkland Cheetahs, losing 1-0 to the
eventual state champs.“As she did all season long,
Blast goalkeeper Rebecca Eskers played outstanding, with seven saves on the day,” Coach Bob Kickner said. “Stopper Charlotte Baryo chased the Cheetahs offense away from the box, while leading goal scorer An-gelique Cyr worked her way through the defensive maze provided by the opponent. As a parent, coach, sports fan, the pure joy in these kids playing hard for fun and family was an experi-ence unlike anything I have encountered in my 20 years as a professional in college sports. It was so cool to be reminded that sports are games meant for fun.”

“It mostly attacks my skin,” she said.
Doctors prescribed three differ-ent medicines to treat her disease, told her to limit exposure to sun-light and warned her that symp-toms such as joint pain and fatigue would eventually worsen.
“My doctor predicted that by the time I got to high school there were going to be a lot of days where I really would not be able to get out of bed because I’d be too tired and my body would be aching,” she said. “But I haven’t had any days like that.”
Faleagafulu, who plays club
basketball year round for Denn Pretz at Riverside Youth Bas-ketball (now the Northwest All-Stars) and with the Auburn Summer League, credits staying active with basketball for staving off the worst of the symptoms.
“Playing basketball helped, that’s what helped me out,” she said. “The doctors were the ones that told me to stay active, but they also said there would be days where it would be hard to do it. But I haven’t really had those, I’ve just been able to push through.”
Staying active has worked so well for Faleagafulu that last year she was able to ditch her prescriptions.
“The doctors have said her basketball, playing with her high school, and club with Denn Pretz has really helped her, especially with being able to be off the medicine,” Ladage said.
Normally, Faleagafulu is not forthcoming about her disease. In fact, Ladage said he didn’t even know about it for the first two years she was in the program.
“As our relationship as player-coach has developed, she’s become more and more hon-est with me,” Ladage said. “As a freshman or sophomore she did anything she could to hide how tired she was. But the last two years she’s been a lot more open.”
Now, with urging from Ladage and support from stepdad Mi-chael Smith – an assistant coach with the Auburn girls – and her mom Shawniene Kaufman, Faleagafulu is willing to talk more about having Lupus.
“He (Ladage) talked me into it,” she said. “He told me I might be able to help someone else who has it and help them push through it. Even if I just help one person, that’s reason enough.”
That willingness to help others is no surprise to Ladage, who said he sees the same thing on the court with Faleagafulu.
“She’s a great teammate, first and foremost she’s a leader,” he
said. “She has been since her freshman year. But she does come from a pass-first mentality and not a scoring mentality.”
Now, with just a season left in her prep career, Ladage said he hopes to inspire Faleagafulu to also step up on the court, too.
“She’s a lot better player than she thinks she is,” Ladage said. “I think that everyone around her has a lot more confidence in her than she has in herself. And that might hold her back sometimes. When she gets into the mindset that she needs to score and assert herself, she’s one of the better players in our league.”
Ramsay said. “The camp will be run so that the intensity and physical levels are very low so that the attendees can gain some confidence and not be overwhelmed.”
The camp is scheduled from 3:45 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Jan. 13-14 at Auburn Memorial Stadium. No sign up or prereg-istration is required.
Rainier Rugby practices begin the week following, with boys scheduled from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Tuesdays at Sunset Chev Stadium in Sumner, and 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Thursdays at Auburn Memorial Stadium.
Girls will practice from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Mondays at Auburn Memorial Stadium, and 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Wednesdays at
Sunset Chev Stadium. Also on tap for the club
are scrimmages in February, including a trip to Beaverton, Ore. for a preseason jamboree.
Games begin in March, with boys playing on Saturdays and girls playing on Sundays.
The season ends in early-May.
Membership fees, which in-clude uniform shorts, socks and mouth guards are $135. The organization also offers reduced and waived fees, and payment plans.
“In 6 years of running the team we have never turned any kid away who wants to play because they couldn’t pay,” Ramsay said.
