questioned why the witness would leave the horses in Fish-er’s overnight care with such a poor work history. Snedeker said Fisher could have called from the trailer telephone if there were any problems.
During redirect examina-tion, Snedeker said he now re-grets not going to the ranch the night Fisher and Gregory were killed. First Assistant County Scott Nicholson asked Sne-deker if his horse business was hurt after the bodies were found in 1983. Snedeker affirmed that customers did not want to do business with the CDR follow-ing the rumors and visibility surrounding the murders.
“It destroyed me,” Snedeker said.
Nicholson continued by ask-ing the witness directly if he killed Steven Fisher.
“No, I did not,” Snedeker said.
“Did you kill Melisa Grego-ry?” Nicholson said.
“No, I did not,” Snedeker answered.
The assistant county attor-ney ended his questioning by asking Snedeker if he is left or right handed. Snedeker firmly
answered he is right handed. The state has made the sus-pected left-handedness of the killer a key piece of evidence in its case against Supino.
The state walked jurors through DNA analysis Thurs-day from the crime scene and also evidence collected from the defendant’s clothing which she provided to investigators in 1983. Jasper County pros-ecutors called two independent analysts and a Iowa DCI Crime Lab Criminologist Michael Schmit to the stand.
DNA was not used as evi-dence in criminal cases in 1983, but modern-day techniques were able to isolate the blood of both victims on items in the CDR camper following the murders. Supino’s DNA was never found at the crime scene, but Schmit said it is not un-common in a cold case for the defendant’s DNA to be missing from analyzed evidence.
Schmit, who began blood analysis in January of 2008 of items taken from the crime scene, examined dozens of blood stains on clothing, blan-kets and other items in the bedroom and kitchen areas and floor of the trailer. A mixture of Fisher and Gregory’s blood was found on items in the bedroom area and on clothing. Indepen-
dent DNA signatures of both victims were also isolated inside the camper— although Grego-ry’s blood DNA signature was found in greater numbers.
Blood spatter on an inden-tation found above the booth where Gregory was found dead revealed Fisher’s partial DNA signature. The indentation is believed by the 1983 crime scene investigators to be caused by the handle of the murder weapon. The weapon was never found in this case.
An analysis of cigarette butts found in an ashtray at the crime scene discovered DNA signa-ture from Snedeker’s brother-in-law Simmons and two other unidentified male subjects. There was no indication how long the butts were in the ash-tray prior to March 2, 1983.
Schmit was also asked to analyze a bag of household gar-bage collected from the home of Carlo Supino Jr., as well as swabs taken from the home. No blood was found in either the swabs or the bag of garbage thought to be connected to the murders. A gauze bandage was located with the blood of an in-dividual who’s test sample was not given to the DCI crime lab.
Forensic Biologist and DNA analyst of Bode Technology Groups Emily Herren began
examining DNA from Supino’s Lee-brand jeans and a swab taken from Fisher in 1983. The DNA analyst said semen sam-ples from the crotch of Supino’s jeans belonged to Fisher and with other DNA likely belong-ing to Supino. The secondary DNA, Herren said, could not be identified with scientific cer-tainty. The time frame of when Fisher’s DNA was deposited in Supino’s jeans was not revealed.
As proceedings began Thursday, Iowa 5th District Court Judge Rickers informed jurors and made record for the court that the panel was down to 13 members. A juror asked to be excused due to an unfore-seen child care issue. The once-14 member panel contains one alternate that will be revealed after the jury goes into delibera-tions next week.
Judge Rickers will also is-sue a ruling Friday concerning the admissibility of recordings holding recent police interviews with Supino. On the tapes, investigators questioned the defendant about the paternity of her son Rocky Supino. The state wants to attack the defen-dant’s reasoning for going to the ranch the night of March 2 — she claims to obtain money to buy shoes for their son — by putting Rocky’s paternity into
question.Jasper County Attorney
Mike Jacobsen said the re-cording will be supplemental evidence to an event — heard in previous testimony by the defendant’s twin brother Tim Supino —in which the defen-dant argued with Fisher about financial assistance for Rocky at the Oasis Motel in Newton.
“Part of the issue in this case was .... one of the reasons she gave for going out to the ranch at 11 o’clock that night was to get shoes for her son,” Jacobsen said. “Some of the questioning later in the two interviews has to do with ‘why did you go out there when it wasn’t even his son?’”
Co-defense counsel Jill Ei-mermann argued that the re-cording is irrelevant to the case and would do nothing but “em-barrass our client” and attack Supino’s character.
“That seems to me to be a stretch. That is irrelevant. Be-yond that, any relevance I think is outweighed by misleading the jury again, making Terri look bad, embarrassing Terri, making a side issue of what the birth certificate said,” Eimer-mann said.
Her original artwork was sent to Wash-ington, D.C. to participate in the na-tional contest and is now traveling the United States as part of the best of show winners from all fifty states.
Entries for the 2015 contest will be ac-cepted anytime but must be postmarked by March 15, and must be mailed to the Neal Smith National Wildlife Refuge, P.O. Box 399, 9981 Pacific Street, Prairie
City, 50228. For more information about the contest, contact Doreen Van Ryswyk at the Neal Smith National Wildlife Refuge at 515-994-3400 or visit the website www.fws.gov/duckstamps.
The competition is held annually, and all Iowa students in grades K-12 may participate in the contest. The program, managed by the Neal Smith National Wildlife Refuge near Prairie City, is a conservation program designed to teach students about waterfowl conservation and wetlands habitat through an art and science-based curriculum.

Bruce Jenner is sport-ing nail polish and a po-nytail. If the Olympic gold medalist gets both a new identity a per-sonal reality TV show, it may take a bite out of discrimination against trans people.
And, conservative leaders are teaming up with environmentalists to give Florida voters a shot at “solar choice.” This “Green Tea Party” trend is making it hard-er for Republicans to embrace fossil fuels and shun renewable energy.
Clearly, shedding flawed conventional notions of all kinds is tough — but not impos-sible.
People “lock into be-lief systems,” explains the solar power entre-preneur and climate-ac-tion philanthropist Jere-my Leggett. “We prefer to believe in the potency of things and systems that we have as opposed to other alternatives that might be rationally much more appropriate.”
After years of exposure to propaganda paid for by oil, gas, and coal com-panies, most people be-lieve “alternatives to their wares are not for grown-ups,” Leggett wrote in The Energy of Nations.
A recent USA Today editorial on oil drilling offers a great example of this dynamic. The edi-tors object to President Barack Obama’s recent declaration that Big Oil
should keep its paws off the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. “Drill, with care, in ANWR and everywhere,” they advo-cate.
Wait. Isn’t drilling “with care” as implausible as getting a little preg-nant?
And I’d like to hear more about this kinder, gentler “drill, baby, drill” business. Do caribou get manicures when res-cue workers wipe spilled crude off their fur?
Ignoring renewable energy’s dizzying growth, the editorial writers scoff at the sector’s 8 percent share of the total U.S. en-ergy market and dismiss it as “not yet economical on a large scale.”
Seriously?More of the nation’s
new electric generation capacity that went on-line in 2014 came from renewable sources than natural gas.
Rooftop solar pow-er already costs about the same or less than dirty-energy options in 10 states. It’s likely to become competitive — without subsidies — in all 50 states next year.
Yes, the sun doesn’t always shine and gusts don’t blow non-stop. Yet energy storage is gaining traction, removing more barriers to the switch to renewable options.
But green energy won’t hit critical mass until conventional wis-dom stops dismissing the prospect of wind, solar, and other options supplanting fossil fuels as some kind of joke.
A real power shift re-quires the kind of “aha moment” seen 500 years ago when the explorer Ferdinand Magellan proved once and for all that the world was round with his legend-ary voyage. Likewise, the dramatic surge in renewable energy won’t resonate until it regis-ters with a wider audi-ence.
Over the past 50 years, many ru-ral communities have experienced a significant decline in population. We must all work together to repop-ulate those areas, while capitalizing on the strengths of rural communities to create good jobs and improve the quality of life.
To help address the issues and chal-lenges faced by our rural communities, I have decided to continue my mem-bership in the Legislative Rural Caucus. The Rural Caucus was cre-ated because many legislators recog-nized the importance of Iowa’s rural economy and wanted an opportu-nity to work together on issues like boosting rural job creation, meet-ing Iowa’s rural infrastructure needs, guaranteeing adequate resources for rural schools and addressing poverty in rural Iowa. I was proud to be a founding member five years ago, and look forward to having an impact on
rural issues this session.I’ve been asked by Rural Caucus
leaders, Representatives Bruce Bear-inger and Sally Stutsman, to take a leadership role within the caucus on environmental and renewable energy efforts. I’m happy to fill this role. Clearly, renewable energy op-portunities have played a critical role in Jasper County’s comeback, par-ticularly wind and bio-diesel. Sup-port for these industries, as well as solar, hydro, geo-thermal, ethanol, and cellulosic fuel, leads to more manufacturing jobs and better pay. Returning manufacturing jobs to rural Iowa is a challenge we must take head on. I’ll continue to make this case. Membership in the Rural Caucus enhances these efforts.
The Rural Caucus meets every week to review proposed legisla-tion, hear from various speakers and discuss impending issues that may affect rural Iowa. Once the session is concluded, we plan to travel the state in an effort to find new solu-tions to old problems in rural Iowa. We also will have the pleasure of visiting many of the great rural towns a majority Iowans call home.
I want to take this opportunity to remind working families to claim the Earned Income Tax Credit on your 2014 taxes. Working families that meet certain income require-ments could receive a refund up to $6,143.
Thousands of hard-working families may not realize they are eligible for a refundable tax credit when they file their 2014 federal and state income taxes. As you work on their taxes this season, I want to make sure everyone who is eligible claims this credit.
Last year, around 222,000 fami-lies in Iowa benefited from the Earned Income Tax Credit, which is now the largest federal cash ben-efit to low-income workers. A single filer without dependents could re-ceive as much as $496 and a fam-ily of five with an income of under $47,000 could receive up to $6,143.
According to the Internal Reve-nue Service, about 25 percent of eli-gible workers don’t claim the credit. For more information or assistance on the EITC, call 1-800-829-8482 to find your local tax assistance site or log on to www.irs.gov.

Newsrooms are snake pits. I say this with great affection.
Newsrooms are tribal and com-petitive, fueling pettiness in the most honorable people. Editors cling to turfs like dictators policing their borders, and sometimes they mistake intimidation for manage-ment. As for reporters, they make their living asking questions and telling stories and too often turn their curiosity onto the private lives of their colleagues. Our pro-fession breeds town gossips.
Still, there is no substitute for the combustible mix of wit, tal-ent and impossible personalities thrown against daily deadlines. It’s arguably a sick thing, I concede, to yearn for big breaking news that makes a newsroom feel one spark away from an explosion. As with any memorable high, once you’re up there, it’s hard to climb down. We’re seldom gracious toward those who get to stay at the top.
It was inevitable that Brian Williams would become the punch line of so many bad jokes once his fellow journalists learned that he had lied about his expe-rience covering the Iraq War in 2003. Specifically, he claimed to be riding in a Chinook helicop-ter that took heavy fire. This was not true, and Williams’ weak at-tempt to explain it away as the fog of memory launched the mock-
ing Twitter hashtag “BrianWil-liamsMisremembers.” A number of news sites have covered this Twitter-fest. How heartening that so many of us still care about the truth.
Celebrity is so seductive and re-quires constant vigilance to avoid falling for the notion that the rules for everyone else no longer apply to you. Few of us journalists can lay claim to the fame that contrib-uted to Williams’ undoing. We are an envious group. This does not bring out the best in us.
Of all that has been written about Williams, whom NBC News has now suspended with-out pay for six months, one of the more instructive observations has come from Poynter’s Al Tomp-kins, who instructs us to pay atten-tion to the boldface words in the following paragraph:
“On March 26, 2003 ... Tom Brokaw introduced Williams’ report on Dateline (by) saying, ‘Our colleague Brian Williams is back in Kuwait City tonight after a close call over the skies in Iraq. Brian tell us what you got yourself into.’ Williams reported, ‘In the end, Tom, it did give us a glimpse of the war as few have seen it. We asked the U.S. Army to take us on an air mission with them and they accepted. We knew there was risk involved, we knew we would
be flying over Iraq, we discussed it, we weren’t cavalier about it. We took off and that is right about when things started to happen.’”
“A story that might have been about soldiers risking their lives was, from the very beginning, fo-cused on the newsman covering the soldiers,” Tompkins writes. Over the story’s ensuing five min-utes and 26 seconds, Tompkins counted 19 more references to “we” and eight more to “us.”
Even before he altered the tale, Williams had carved out a starring role in someone else’s story.
Show of hands, fellow journal-ists: Who has done the same thing — if not in our reporting, then in recounting to friends and family? I don’t mean making stuff up. I’m just talking about shifting the ac-count to first person, in which we are just that clever, that imperiled, that entertaining. I’m not even referring to solely us columnists, who are paid to be insufferable.
Writer Anne Lamott, in partial defense of Williams, shared on Facebook how an oft-quoted ob-servation by someone else became attributed to her.
The quotation: “You can tell you’ve created God in your own image when He hates the same people you do.”
The original author: Tom Weston, her “wild Jesuit friend,”
in a lecture delivered 23 years ago.Lamott explains: “The first
few times I quoted it — prob-ably at Salon, and possibly in Bird by Bird — I attributed it to him. Then the next few times, I didn’t. I just shoe-horned it into conver-sation, as if I’d just thought of it that minute; brilliant daring me.
“And not exactly ‘conversa-tion.’ More like, ‘While being in-terviewed.’
“Then, it got picked up, and it was everywhere, and I started try-ing to correct the lie — at a big public level. ...
“The line is frequently quoted, as mine. It’s a great line; it says it all. But I’m sick of cringing and saying I borrowed it. Okay — stole it. Fine.”
Leave it to Lamott to remind us just how reliably human we are.
I won’t defend Brian Williams’ efforts to aggrandize his experi-ence covering a war he wasn’t fighting. Still, I can’t deny the heaviness in my heart. I find no joy in Williams’ crisis of credibil-ity. If scrutiny of his career reveals further missteps, our profession takes a body blow.
I’m pulling for Williams. Self-ishly so.

Kelley joins Iowa House rural CaucusNewton Daily News
DES MOINES — State Representative Dan Kelley of New-ton will serve on the House Rural Caucus for the 2015 legislative session.
“A vibrant ag econ-omy is critical to a strong economy and creating jobs in com-munities across Iowa. Adding value to the crops for farmers through industries like renewable energy will give our local economy a boost and protect
our natural resources,” Kelley said.
The Rural Caucus was created because House Democrats recognized the impor-tance of Iowa’s rural economy and wanted to give legislators an opportunity to work together on issues like boosting rural job cre-ation, meeting Iowa’s rural infrastructure needs, guaranteeing adequate resources for rural schools, and ad-dressing poverty in ru-ral Iowa.
“Over the last 50
years, many rural com-munities have experi-enced a significant de-cline in population. We must all work together to repopulate those areas, while capital-izing on the strengths of rural communities to create good jobs and improve the quality of life,” Kelley said.
The Rural Caucus meets every week to review proposed legis-lation, hear from vari-ous speakers and dis-cuss impending issues that may affect rural Iowa.

DEAR ABBY: My younger broth-er is 25. Three or four months ago he got out of a six-year relationship. He is now dating his former boss, a woman who is at least 15 years older than he is. As far as I know, I’m the only one he’s told.
I recently asked him how the ro-mance was going and he told me things are great. He also said he’s worried about how to let the rest of our family know about this new re-lationship. Do you have any advice I could give him about revealing something that’s sure to shock some members of our family? – WOR-RIED OLDER BROTHER IN KANSAS CITY, MO.
DEAR WORRIED: Yes. Tell him all he has to do is bring his new love interest to the next family gathering. (You can be in charge of supplying the smelling salts.)
DEAR ABBY: My husband and I completed construction on our re-tirement home five years ago. Even though we’re not retired, we were able to move in. We are now 3 1/2 hours away from family.
We have repeatedly invited fam-ily members to enjoy our hospitality at holiday or vacation time. Some of them have taken us up on the invita-tion at least once. However, one of my brothers has never been here.
We have a lovely log cabin on a lake, and it can accommodate ALL family members for a gathering. Our relatives cite the long drive as the reason for staying away, while they think nothing of taking a hunting or fishing trip nearby.
I have stopped asking. My mom thinks I should continue extend-ing invitations. Truthfully, it is a lot less work and expense to NOT host. Who’s right? – ENOUGH AL-READY IN MICHIGAN
DEAR ENOUGH: You are. By now your relatives are well aware that they are welcome. Continue to invite those who have accepted and reciprocated your hospitality, be-cause it should be apparent that the ones who have declined are not in-terested. And explain that to your mother, who long ago should have stopped telling you what to do.
DEAR ABBY: Have you or any of your female readers experienced this medical phenomenon with their male partners? When I open my mouth to speak, I can literally hear my hus-band’s ears slam shut! Repeating ev-erything seems to be a side effect for those of us living with someone with this disease. Does anyone know of a cure? – TIRED OF TALKING TO MYSELF
DEAR TIRED: Alas, I can’t an-swer from personal experience be-cause every time I open my mouth to speak, my husband rushes for-ward to catch the pearls of wisdom I’m spewing. However, I suspect that what you’re experiencing may be a widespread phenomenon that happens when any woman suggests something her spouse doesn’t want to hear. Readers, what do you think?

Western Iowa man critically injured in single-vehicle crash
NEOLA — A western Iowa man has been critically injured after his truck swerved off the road and struck a bridge support. The Pottawattamie County Sheriff ’s Office says 54-year-old Roger Schneckloth was hurt in the single-vehicle accident occurred Thurs-day morning just outside of Neola. He was transported by medical helicopter to Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha. A witness told au-thorities that a 2003 Chevrolet Silverado was heading north on Railroad Highway when it veered into a ditch before hitting the bridge.
Cost for empty Iowa prison now at $166M
IOWA CITY — Iowa Department of Corrections officials say they weren’t try-ing to mislead the public when they re-fused to acknowledge for months that the price tag for the state’s faulty new prison had risen to $166 million. After deflecting questions since October, the department confirmed Wednesday that an often-cited $132 million cost for the empty Iowa State Penitentiary was not accurate.

House panel OKs bill that would increase Iowa’s fuel tax
DES MOINES — A House panel has approved a bill that would increase Io-wa’s fuel tax, a move that mirrors action in the Senate.
Members of a transportation subcom-mittee approved the bill Thursday. It now moves to a full committee for consider-ation. The bill would raise the state fuel tax by 10 cents. A Senate transportation subcommittee approved similar legislation Wednesday. A full committee can now re-view that bill.
Employee rescued from tank filled with chemicals
DES MOINES — Authorities say a 28-year-old man who fell into a large tank filled with chemical cleaning solution has been rescued. The Polk County Sheriff ’s Of-fice says deputies responded Thursday to a call that an employee had fallen into a vat of chemical cleaner at Chemorse, Ltd. in Des Moines. Officials say other employees were able to help the man out of the tank using a safety rope before rescue crews arrived.

Police called on false report
Jason W. Brooks/Daily NewsNewton Police were called to the West End Sinclair gas station and laundromat parking lot late Thursday afternoon after a woman called police and said someone had been shot. Chief Jeff Hoebelheinrich said no one had been shot and there were no injuries. The Newton Police Department transported the woman, who was under distress, to Skiff Medical Center for evaluation, Hoebelheinrich said.

The final property is also a Habitat for Hu-manity of Mid-Iowa property that is available for purchase for $15,000 for the housing initiative.
The council will re-view the addition of a project coordinator po-sition to implement the Alliant Energy Grant. The city has received a grand from Alliant Ener-gy and Black Hills Ener-gy for a community-wide
energy conservation pro-gram. After the Employ-ee Relations Committee met they recommended a temporary, part-time employee to be hired for 20 hours per week at a pay rate of $15 to $17 per hour. The position would be funded through the grant.
An ordinance change amending the city code to define family enter-tainment center and list indoor family entertain-ment center within the light industrial district is likely to be removed from the table. The Planning and Zoning Commission determined that a “fam-ily entertainment center” that was limited to in-door activity aligned with “fitness center,” which is already listed as a permit-
ted use within the zone. The commission recom-mends approving the or-dinance by adding indoor family fun center to the permitted uses with the light industrial district and defining family fun center.

the investigation, but a school-wide announcement wasn’t made. Stillman was placed on administrative leave on Jan. 23, and resigned Jan. 28. The Newton Community School District board met Jan. 29 for the purposes of accepting the resignation.
Callaghan said the reason for plac-ing Stillman on leave cannot be dis-closed because it’s a personnel matter, and he is “not at liberty to discuss it.” After Stillman resigned, Callaghan contacted Newton High School re-source officer Brian Foster of the NPD.
Hoebelheinrich declined to disclose any details about the ages or identi-ties of anyone of interest in the case, and didn’t describe the circumstances or nature of the alleged inappropriate contact.
Stillman had been with the district since shortly after his 2012 gradua-tion from the University of Iowa. His
LinkedIn page shows he had been with Newton Schools since June 2013. His assistant-coach profile on the NHS wrestling website says he was a four-time state placer during his days at Emmetsburg High School.
He wrote that he has also assisted with the Lone Tree and Storm Lake programs, and that he “has a deep pas-sion for wrestling” and that he hopes “to coach long into the future at New-ton High School.”
Efforts to reach Stillman for com-ment by phone were unsuccessful.
Callaghan said he encourages par-ents or other concerned individuals to use the district’s anonymous tip line, 641-323-1150 or [email protected], to report any safety concerns. He said those two portals have not been utilized to report any inappropriate student or teacher conduct recently.
“I believe our students are safe, and their safety is always maintained by our staff,” Callaghan said.

Speech large-group performers earn high marks
Newton Daily News
The Newton High School speech team earned four overall “I” ratings for per-formances at Satur-day’s Large Group State Competition for southeast Iowa, held at Washington High School in Cedar Rap-ids.
First-year NHS speech coach Niki
Hively said none of the Newton entries will advance to the Feb. 21 Large Group State Speech Festival in Ames, but she said the 17 NHS students did “a great job” in Ce-dar Rapids.
The TV News, Forck Improv, Group Mime and Short Film entries all earned “I”, ratings at state, while Rhone Improv and Musical
Theater each earned a “II” overall rating.
Individual speech competition gets under way in the weeks ahead. Individual districts are Feb. 28 at Tri-County High School, with the individual state com-petition set for March 14.
Hively said NHS has 20 entries regis-tered so far for the Feb. 28 individual districts.
That’s how much was left behind when Americans prepared their own tax returns last year.
A billion dollars. It’s your money. Get it back with Block.
1Each tax situation is different and not everyone will receive a refund. In a 2013 H&R Block study of tax returns by people who did their own taxes, nearly half had differences, and approximately 40% of people
200 from those submitted. In addi-tion, an elementary, middle-school and high-school work are selected as the outstanding entries.
Anderson, one of the Berg Ele-mentary artists, has the elementary outstanding art work this year, and his work is among three finalists for best in show.
Newton art teachers who sub-mitted work are Noel, Ruth Den-Hartog, Breanne Determan, Laura Lengeling and Libby O’Lear. Noel hopes shows like the “YAM,” as it is affectionately called, will help promote the importance of art in education.
“Art is mostly higher-order thinking, and problem solving,” Noel said. “And it promotes indi-viduality and creativity.”

Newton wrestlers hit 3A district matsNewton High’s Car-
dinals are filling 12 of 14 weight class slots for Sat-urday’s Class 3A District 1 wrestling tournament. Newton’s 12 wrestlers are juniors, sophomores and freshmen.
Newton is in a dis-trict tournament fea-turing Class 3A top-ranked Southeast Polk. The Rams have 12 ranked wrestlers on their roster including top-ranked senior No-lan Hellickson (35-0) at 126, junior Ethan Anderson (37-1) at 220 and senior Jake Marnin (24-0) at 285.
Junior Hunter Ver-steegh is the lone re-turning state meet qualifier for the Cardi-nals as they head into district action. Ver-steegh is 34-5 at 113 pounds and NHS head coach Andy Sweden-hjelm said he expected Versteegh to receive the No. 2 seed at that weight. SEP’s Nathan Lendt, a freshman, is ranked No. 2 at 113 with a 35-5 record.
“It’s been his goal all year to get back to the state meet and get on the stand,” Sweden-hjelm said of Versteegh. “He tends to perform his best in big situations so I’m looking forward to seeing him have a fun day on Saturday.”
Wrestling action at the Class 3A District 1 tournament begins at noon Saturday at An-keny Centennial High School. Admission to district tournaments is $6 for all spectators.
Joining Newton, Southeast Polk and An-keny Centennial in the district tournament are Ankeny, Des Moines Lincoln, Marshalltown,
Norwalk and Pella. There are a total of 18 top-10 ranked wrestlers in the tournament.
The top two wres-tlers in each weight class qualify for the Iowa High school Athletic Association State Wres-tling Tournament, Feb. 19-21, at Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines.
“Overall, I am ex-cited about this upcom-ing weekend,” Sweden-hjelm said. “We have a bunch of kids that will go out and give their all. We have been focusing on controlling what we can control, having a great attitude and ef-fort, and seeing what happens.
“Every year there are kids that are not pro-jected to go to state that go and even place. That is why we wrestle the tournament. Our kids are going in with the mindset of ‘Why not me?’ and I think that no matter what happens on Saturday, our kids will be proud of their effort.”
Junior Bryce Tish fin-
ished fourth at districts last year wrestling at 132 pounds. He moved up to 145 pounds this season and put together a 26-12 record. Duncan Lee and Jordan Henning, both juniors, competed in the district tourna-ment a year ago and did not place.
Lee moved up three weight classes to 195 pounds this season and only has three losses since Christmas break. He takes a 29-9 re-cord into the district tournament. Henning wrestled at 182 last year, but is the Cardinals’ 220-pound wrestler and has a 12-14 record.
Tish and Lee are Little Hawkeye Con-ference champions and Versteegh was second at the conference meet.
“The 145 class will be a major tossup in our district. I think Bryce has the ability and mental toughness to succeed at this level. His goal is to get to state, so Saturday will be a big day for him.
I’m confident that he is peaking at the right time for us,” Sweden-hjelm said.
“Duncan has wres-tled extremely well this season, especially in the second half of the sea-son. He has been able to step up and answer every challenge that has come his way. Jor-dan is excited to have some fun here at dis-tricts. Jordan has been very close to breaking through so far this year. In both of our matches against No. 10 ranked Trystan Minnis of Nor-walk he has had him on his back, but been un-able to finish,” he said.
Swedenhjelm said Lee will be in every
match he is in, which is great around this time of year. He said Henning is the type of kid that can surprise a lot of people at districts and hopefully sneak through.
At 106, the Cardinals have freshman Ross Hull, who has battled back from injuries this season to get a spot on the district team.
Jon Lawton is a sophomore with a 14-16 record going at 120 for Newton. Freshman Reece Thurmond (11-14) will compete at 138.
Sophomore Brady Smith (23-20) goes at 152 for Newton and ju-nior Tristan Langmaid (19-14) wrestled at 160. Junior Harley Walker (10-26) and junior Ja-cob Smith (12-17) fill the 170 and 182 slots for the Cardinals. Soph-omore Caleb Kite will be Newton’s 285-pound entry at the district meet.
Swedenhjelm said much the same about all of these wrestlers — they work hard and have shown improve-ment throughout the season. He said they all have shown dedication to the program.
“I’m extremely proud of our kids and their work ethic. I’m also ex-cited about the future of all these kids and our program,” Sweden-hjelm said.

Tigerhawks inching closer to elusive first win
COLFAX — Sometimes basketball can be a sim-ple game. And making free throws, taking care of the ball and maintaining composure can go a long way.
Unfortunately, the Colfax-Mingo boys’ basketball team learned that the hard way Thursday night.
Leading for 31 of the 32 minutes, the Tigerhawks missed 10 free throws in the fourth quarter and succumbed to Pleasantville’s full-court pressure too easily during a 51-48 home loss.
Joshua Luna buried a game-winning 3-pointer from the baseline with 7 seconds to play. And it came after Colfax-Mingo missed two free throws at the other end with 18 sec-onds on the clock.
“I feel for the kids. They have worked really hard,” Col-fax-Mingo coach John Borts said.
“They need a win but just can’t quite get it done in the fourth quarter. We don’t ex-ecute as well as we want, we miss shots around the basket and we miss free throws. All that catches up to you in the end.”
And it certainly did Thurs-day against the Trojans in a non-conference contest.
The Tigerhawks led 12-7 after one and stayed in front by two at halftime.
They scored four of the fi-nal five points in the third to lead 37-33 after three.
However, the struggles at the line began with 20 seconds to go in the third.
The hosts missed six straight shots from the charity stripe and that kept the mar-gin close enough for the Tro-jans (15-6) to put together a late rally.
The Tigerhawks, who dropped to 0-20 on the year, went 9-of-23 from the line in all.
“We’ve had some good op-portunities to end the losing streak and this was the best opportunity,” Borts said. “Give (Pleasantville) credit for hit-ting the big shot there late. It’s a tough pill for the kids to swallow.”
Colin Lourens finished with 20 points and 13 rebounds to lead the Tigerhawks, while Jacob Lietz had 17. But only four Colfax-Mingo players scored in the game.
Pleasantville, on the oth-er hand, had three score in double-figures and four other players scored at least two points.
The game-winning 3-point-er by Luna came out of a time-out. He got loose along the baseline and buried perhaps the biggest shot of his career.
“We had a player not stick with someone. We knew we had to cover everybody. We knew they were good 3-point shooters,” Borts said. “We just made a mistake defensively.
Credit their kid for knocking the shot down.”
While Lourens scored 16 of his 20 points in the first three quarters, Lietz was the Tiger-hawks’ catalyst in the fourth.
Seven of his 17 came in the final frame. He broke a 42-all tie with a bucket with 1:23 to go and then put his team up one a bit later with a hoop and the harm.
The Tigerhawks led 48-45 after two free throws by Lou-rens with 35 seconds to play.
But the Trojans, which has won five in a row and 11 of their last 12, drew within one with 20 seconds to play fol-lowing a putback by Trever Zoss.
And then, after two missed free throws by the Tigerhawks, Luna gave them the lead for good with the dagger from deep.
“The guys played really hard,” Borts said. “That’s why it’s so disheartening to not see them rewarded with a win at the end of a game.”
Luna finished with a team-high 14 points in the game, while Brady Elder buried three 3-pointers and scored 12.
Zoss chipped in 11 as the Trojans connected on eight shots from long range. The Tigerhawks made just one 3-pointer.
Jarod Nichols and Jared Myers each collected eight re-bounds, while Lietz corralled six rebounds and dished out three assists. Blake Summy also had three assists.
The Tigerhawks’ busy week concludes Friday with a home game against Nevada. It will be the fourth game in five days for Colfax-Mingo.
The Tigerhawks begin postseason play at 7 p.m. Monday at Southeast Warren (3-17).
Troy Hyde/Daily NewsColfax-Mingo junior Jacob Lietz (22) scored seven of his 17 points in the fourth quarter as the Tigerhawks lost to Pleasantville, 51-48, on Thursday night. It was the Trojans’ 11th win in their last 12 games.
BAXTER — A fast start turned into an easy victory for the Collins-Maxwell/Bax-ter boys’ basketball team on Thursday night.
The Raiders jumped out to a double-digit lead just 5 min-utes into the game and cruised from there, defeating Wood-ward-Granger 66-50 in non-conference play.
Tommy Galloway scored a season-high 19 points and Seth Balke added 12 points, eight assists, five steals and
four rebounds. Balke was 6-of-8 from the foul line and CMB hit 21-of-30 from the stripe in the win.
The Raiders (10-10) led 20-6 after one quarter and
went into halftime with a 34-20 advantage.
The third quarter ended with CMB up 53-37 and sev-eral reserves finished off the victory in the fourth quarter.
The win put the Raiders at .500 for the first time this year. CMB has gone 10-5 since be-ginning the season 0-5.
Their regular season will conclude at 7:30 p.m. Friday against Class 3A No. 9 Gilbert in Baxter.
Brady Stover also had 10 points and five boards in the win over Woodward-Granger (3-18).
Bryce Kemp pulled down 11 rebounds and Hunter Gunderson corralled 10. CMB had 20 offensive rebounds to-tal in the win.
Woodward-Granger was led by Alex Bodermann’s 16 points.
Tre Loge added 14 and Nick Squires scored 11.
But the Hawks were 17-of-40 from the floor. They lost despite making eight 3-point-ers.

MUSTANG LANES BOWLING Hall of Fame basketball coach Jerry Tarkanian dies in VegasLAS VEGAS (AP) — He
couldn’t stop fighting the NCAA any more than he could give up chewing towels courtside. Jerry Tarkanian built a basket-ball dynasty in the desert, but it was his decades-long battle with the NCAA that defined him far more than the wins and losses.
The coach who won a na-tional title at UNLV and made the school synonymous with basketball died Wednesday after several years of health issues. He was 84.
Tarkanian put the run in the Runnin’ Rebels, taking them to four Final Fours and winning a national championship in 1990 with one of the most dominant college teams ever. His teams were as flamboyant as the city, with light shows and fireworks for pregame introductions and
celebrities jockeying for posi-tion on the so-called Gucci Row courtside.
He ended up beating the NCAA, too, collecting a $2.5 million settlement after suing the organization for trying to run him out of college basket-ball. But he was bitter to the end about the way the NCAA treat-ed him while coaching.
“They’ve been my tormentors my whole life,” Tarkanian said at his retirement news conference.
The night before he died, fans attending UNLV’s game against Fresno State draped towels over the statue of Tarkanian outside the campus arena that depicts Tarkanian chewing on one of his famous towels.
His death came days after the death of another HOF coach, North Carolina’s Dean Smith.
Hawkeye women
rally past HuskersLINCOLN, Neb.
(AP) — Ally Disterhoft had 14 points and seven rebounds and No. 14 Iowa passed No. 22 Ne-braska with a late surge to take a 69-61 victory on Thursday night.
Kali Peschel added 13 points and Bethany Doolittle 12 for the Hawkeyes (20-4, 11-2 Big Ten), who won their third straight game, swept Nebraska and got their first win in Lincoln since March 21, 2005.
Tear’a Laudermill scored 18 points and Brandi Jeffery 16 for Nebraska (17-7, 7-6). Emily Cady grabbed a career-high 19 re-bounds. Nebraska lost its third straight, all to ranked conference rivals.
Nebraska led 37-28 at halftime, but Iowa came back to take a lead with 7:55 to go. Jeffery scored six points in an 8-2 run to give the Cornhuskers a 56-54 advantage be-fore Iowa began a game-ending 15-5 run.
Iowa men suffer home
defeat to MinnesotaIOWA CITY (AP)

Andre Hollins led Minnesota (16-9, 5-7 Big Ten) with 20 points, making 7-of-14 from the field.
Iowa (15-9, 6-5) came within two points with 20 seconds left after Jar-rod Uthoff sank two free throws. But Minnesota’s Nate Mason made 1-of-2 from the line with 19 seconds left and Walker sealed it.
Uthoff finished with 17 points and seven boards for Iowa.

Bob Samples wrote: “Albert Einstein called the intuitive or metaphoric mind a sacred gift. He added that the ratio-nal mind was a faithful ser-vant. It is paradoxical that in the context of modern life we have begun to worship the servant and defile the divine.” Boldly follow your intuition, as it is the arrow in the bow of the Sagittarius moon. Pull back, release the tension and send your arrow toward a distant target.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 13). You believe in family and in sacrificing for love, and that’s the reason for the beautiful event that happens in March. March also brings financial luck. April begins a study that will go on for many years. Practical wisdom will win over fancy titles in June, and you’ll be promoted. Domestic upgrades are worth the cost. Capricorn and Virgo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 1, 22, 37 and 18. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). People seem more interested than they should be in your choices, but that doesn’t give them the right
to be nosy, bossy or control-ling. Follow the old hippie maxim: “It’s your thing. Do what you want to do.” PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). People around you will be making decisions based on the emotional tone they want more of. When you embody that tone, you’ll move them to take action, join your efforts or simply to love you.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your work is shaping you in remarkable ways. It’s as though the partition separating you from your work is becoming increas-ingly porous until you are one and the same. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). For you, territory is about feeling connected. Foreign territory is where the connection is lost. The boundaries are fuzzy at best, and that’s why it’s important that you map them in your own way. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). As dangerous as it is to climb Mt. Everest, hundreds of people do it every day. You have your own version
of a dangerous quest you’d like to accomplish, and this is a fine time to sort out the details and make a plan. CANCER (June 22-July 22). In this age of un-manned space missions, drones and the like, you wish you could send a robot to perform some of today’s more tedious duties. Alas, your human touch will make all the difference to someone. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The unfortunate consequences of carrying out bad instructions must always be weighted against the rival set of un-fortunate consequences that come with questioning and challenging the one giving the orders. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Even though you are im-pressively persuasive when dealing with rational people, there are those who can’t be reasoned with. It’s pointless to try! Remain polite, keep your distance and ignore them. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Haven’t you noticed that you often get the thing you
were going for? Don’t take this for granted! On the other hand, not getting what you want can be painful, but at least it helps you appreci-ate your successes. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). What if you believed that you are now who you most wanted to be and you knew exactly what you were doing when you decided upon it? How would that change your approach? Have confidence. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Love and hap-piness are the central point. If you’re not getting enough of a chance to love, be loved and pursue happiness, it’s time to rethink your lifestyle. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The rule is always to dress a step above your rank, and when you apply it, you’ll be seen as someone who is going places. Such things matter today, and your execution will be flawless. COPYRIGHT 2015 CREATORS.COM
