$1.00 (tax included) Number 36 Volume 108 September 5, 2013 If you have taken a drive south on Highway 240 then you undoubtedly noticed the well groomed trees of Scott and Susan Kroells. They have used old railroad ties to frame in the front trees and continued in the back with widely spaced rows of trees for a shelterbelt. With rows of Cedar, Russian Olive, Lilac, Honey Locust and Ponderosa Pine the Kroells have taken measures to block wind and capture moisture on their land. Scott and Susan Kroells are the winners this year of the Shelterbelt Stewardship award. They have met the criteria of: trees are at least 5 years old, 80 percent tree survival rate, relatively free of weeds, and kept free of livestock. This is no easy task when faced with dry conditions and drifts of snow over the lifespan of trees. Many do not make it when there is inadequate care. The East Pennington Conservation District will recognize their hard work with an award presented in November at the EPCD Awards Banquet. Shelterbelt Stewardship Award by Laurie Hindman Courage comes in many forms. On May, 2013, Stacie Eichinger, who is orginally from Tuc- son, Ariz., left on a 3,800 mile journey from Ocean Shores, Wa. to Savannah, Ga. Not much of a trek if you’re traveling by plane or even a car but Eichinger, who is already a world trav- eler, decided she would do something different on this jour- ney. She would walk the 3,800 miles and do it alone. Sounds crazy to most of us but not to Eichner. She walked into Wall on Tuesday, Au- gust 27, pushing her canopy wheeled cart that carries her sup- plies in heat close to 100 degrees, with a smile on her face. Eichinger, who is a volunteer member with “Beads of Courage,” is hoping to rasie money for the orgainization which provides 'arts-in- medicine' supportive care for seriously ill kids. Eichinger said for every $10 she raises she will receive a bead and is hoping to collect 3,800 beads. That means for Walking 4 Courage strolls into Wall every mile she has walked she will have raised $38,000 for the orginzation. When she had reached Wall she had $13,000 in dona- tions. Beads of Courage are given to children who have been through different medical procedures. Instead of receiving a badge of courage, they receive a bead. Eichinger delivers her beads in the shape of a running shoe to hospitals who belong to the or- ganization. Presently, there are 150 hospitals who participate in Beads of Courage, Eichinger noted. The closest hospital she will visiting next is in Minneapolis. From there, she will walk over to Chicago, Ill., and then down to Savan- nah. Her journey should end next Feb- ruary, if the weather allows her to con- tinue her walk. You can follow her journey at www.beadsofcourage.org as she walks, with courage, across America for “Beads of Courage”.

She reasoned we have to look at the drivers differently. They don’t go through all the training the local EMTs do and therefore should only receive $1 an hour plus an increase in their run pay. The local EMTs pay should be in- crease to $4 an hour. Kitterman disagreed, he said I have been driving for 70 some years and the By Gov. Dennis Daugaard August has come to a close, and though temperatures are still high, fall is almost here and students have al- ready settled back into their class- rooms. This time of year always brings me back to when I was in school. I always enjoyed school. In fact, through sev- enth grade, I was at the top of my class. Of course, that wasn’t too diffi- cult – I was the only person in my class! Much has changed since I attended that one-room country school. Back then, a gallon of gas was 40 cents, a new house cost around $25,000 and fewer people went to college – about 17 percent of people in the U.S. had at least a bachelor’s degree. Now, that number is around 28 percent. Along with the escalating number of people seeking higher education, the increasingly competitive global econ- omy requires today’s workforce to have greater skill sets and more education. Preparing our students for college and careers In order to succeed, our students need to leave high school ready for a postsecondary experience – at a uni- versity, a technical institute or a shorter certificate program – and, ulti- mately, the workforce. How well are we preparing our youth in South Dakota? Recent news indi- cates we are doing pretty well. According to the state Department of Education, 74 percent of our students are proficient in math and reading. Also, South Dakota’s ACT scores went up last year, and we continue to outperform the national average – even though we have one of the highest ACT participation rates in the nation. We also surpass the national averages in each subject: English, reading, math and science. Still, there are areas where we can improve. Although more of our stu- dents take the ACT and attend college, we have a higher than average college dropout rate. As one factor which limits success, some students enter college needing re- medial help. To overcome this problem before college, the South Dakota De- partment of Education and Board of Regents are working to increase college readiness by offering free remedial coursework. Students don’t have to retake a whole course, but instead can focus on the specific components of courses where they need some extra help. These courses are available to high school seniors via the South Dakota Virtual School. I am proud of the quality of educa- tion we offer here in South Dakota. Our students do well because we have committed teachers and parents who take an active role in their chil- dren’s education. As our world continues to change, we will continue to work toward even bet- ter solutions to prepare our children for the future. Here’s to a great school year!

Five germ-fighting tips to keep

kids healthy this school year School is a great place to learn,

play and make friends. Unfortu-nately it’s also a great place forgerms to get very well ac-quainted….with your family! With 20 to 30 kids in a class-room and even more on the play-ground, it’s hard to avoid thegerms that cause such illnesses ascolds, flus and more. Three-time Gold Medalist, wifeand busy mom of two, ChristieRampone knows the importanceof good health. As captain of the U.S. Women'sSoccer Team, she travels over twohundred days a year, often withher young children in tow. So stress, fatigue and stayinghealthy are daily battles. Sincedays off are not an option forRampone, she is offering five"stay healthy" tips that parentscan follow all school year long: •Eat healthy: It's no secret, abalanced diet is key for a healthyimmune system. By focusing on a variety offruits and vegetables and avoid-ing processed foods and sugarysnacks, your family will get thenutrition it needs to fight off

germs during the school year. “Some of my favorite healthysnacks are carrots, celery and ap-ples. They are easy to pack andextremely nutritious,” says Ram-pone. "The trick is to create vari-ety, because kids tend to growtired of the same things quickly." •Get plenty of exercise: Fre-quent, moderate exercise is im-portant for good health andstrong immunity. On a daily basis, encouragekids to play sports, run, bike rideor dance, all to keep their bodiesfit, hearts pumping strong andminds happy. Better yet, join inon the fun yourself! •Sleep at least seven hours anight: Sleep is crucial to goodhealth, both mentally and physi-cally. A recent study showed thatwhen you get less than sevenhours sleep at night, you're threetimes more likely to come downwith a cold or flu. •Take supplements as needed:Government recommendationscall for five to eight servings offruits and vegetables a day. But

how many of us really get them? To help fill the gaps, look fornutritional supplements sup-ported by published clinical re-search, like those containing Epi-Cor, an immune-strengtheningingredient found in many dietarysupplement brands sold in storesand online. Rampone, who has battledLyme disease, which wreakshavoc on the immune system, hasbeen using such supplements forherself and her entire family. •Don’t forget about you: As aparent, your first priority is usu-ally the kids. But you need tomake sure that you also take careof yourself too, especially duringthe chaotic school and work week. Make sure that you drinkenough water and get a few min-utes each day to relax andrecharge your immune battery. More tips to keep kids healthythis school year can be found atwww.epicorimmune.com. While you can’t avoid germs,you can take steps to strengthenyour family’s immunity and over-all health.

Participation in high schoolsports increased for the 24th con-secutive year in 2012-13 andpassed the 7.7 million mark forthe first time, according to the an-nual High School Athletics Partic-ipation Survey conducted by theNational Federation of StateHigh School Associations (NFHS).

Based on figures from the 51NFHS-member state high schoolassociations, which includes theDistrict of Columbia, sports par-ticipation for the 2012-13 schoolyear reached an all-time high of7,713,577 participants – an in-crease of 21,057 from the previousyear.

An additional 15,190 girls par-ticipated in high school sports lastyear, moving the girls all-timerecord to 3,222,723 and markingthe 24th consecutive year for anincrease in the number of femaleparticipants.

After its first decrease in 20years last year, boys participationstarted on the upswing againwith an additional 5,867 partici-pants. The boys total of 4,490,854is second all-time to the 4,494,406in 2010-11.

“While we recognize that manyschools are experiencing chal-lenges with funding high schoolsports programs, we are encour-aged that schools are respondingto the challenges and that moreand more students are involved inhigh school sports,” said BobGardner, NFHS executive direc-tor. “Playing sports within theschool setting continues to be thedesire of more than 55 percent ofstudents enrolled in our nation’shigh schools.”

Eight of the top 10 girls sportsregistered increases in participa-tion in 2012-13, led by competi-tive spirit squads (8,201), outdoortrack and field (4,172), and swim-ming and diving (3,536).

Lacrosse, cross country, volley-ball, soccer and tennis also hadadditional female participants,while basketball and fast-pitchsoftball had minor declines.

increases for 24th consecutive yearshowed increases in participation,led by outdoor track and field(5,044), swimming and diving(4,354), and basketball (3,387).Cross country and baseball alsoregistered gains among top 10sports.

Eleven-player football remainsthe top sport for boys with1,086,627 participants in 2012-13, although the number of play-ers has decreased slightly each ofthe past four years, including adrop of 9,366 from 2011-12 to2012-13.

In terms of combined participa-tion, track and field, and swim-ming and diving registered thebest overall gains. Track and fieldhad an increase of more than9,100 participants when combin-ing girls and boys, while swim-ming and diving was up almost8,000 participants.

Girls sports outside the top 10that recorded increases in partic-ipants and could be emergingsports for females are bowling(25,450 participants in 2012-13),ice hockey (9,447), wrestling(8,727) and flag football (7,019).

A sizeable increase in “adaptedsports” participation also con-tributed to the rise in 2012-13 fig-ures. With seven states offeringthese programs for students withdisabilities in 14 sports, the num-ber of participants rose almost3,000 to 8,747 (girls and boyscombined).

The top 10 states by partici-pants remained in the same orderas last year, with Texas and Cali-fornia topping the list with798,333 and 777,545, respectively.

The remainder of the top 10was New York (389,475), Illinois(339,944), Ohio (327,919), Penn-sylvania (315,492), Michigan(304,438), New Jersey (270,423),

After four successful yearstraining new farmers on the east-ern side of the state, DakotaRural Action’s Farm Beginnings®course is moving west and will beoffered in Rapid City this year.

Farm Beginnings is a farmerand rancher-led training and sup-port program that provides par-ticipants the opportunity to learnfirst-hand about low-cost, sus-tainable methods of farming andranching and the tools to success-fully launch a profitable enter-prise.

“We are very excited to be mov-ing the Farm Beginnings courseto Rapid City so other aspiringfarmers and ranchers may begiven a chance to live out theirdreams of living off the land,” saidcourse graduate and farmerAaron Johnson, who also serveson the program’s steering com-mittee. Johnson is now a partnerat Johnson Farms, an organicgrain operation near Madison,S.D.

Farm Beginnings classes areheld November to March andfocus on topics such as wholefarm planning, financial andbusiness planning, marketing,and connecting with resourcesand mentors.

All classes are led by estab-lished farmers and ranchers andagricultural professionals. Thereare opportunities for students tofurther their skills by participat-ing in mentorships with localfarmers and four - six field daysare offered through Dakota Rural

Farm Beginnings class helps kickstart new operations

training program moves to Rapid CityAction’s Farmer Network in thesummer. Over 80 percent ofcourse graduates participate inthese on-farm activities after fin-ishing the course.

A limited number of scholar-ships are available to help withcourse tuition. Special funding forveterans may be available andveterans are encouraged to in-quire.

“Farm Beginnings was thelaunching pad we needed to getstarted,” said Anne Hauglid,farmer and course graduate. “Oursuccess as JHA Farms stemmedfrom our experience with theclass.

We went from zero farm incometo over $21,000 gross sales lastyear for our broiler and egg busi-ness. We’re looking to increasethat this year. If it hadn’t been forFarm Beginnings we wouldn’t beraising chickens successfullytoday.”

Farm Beginnings participantscan be of any age, do not need tocurrently own land, and comefrom wide range of experiencesand farming and ranching inter-ests.

Nearly 40 families have en-rolled in the course over the lastfour years and 83 percent of grad-uates are currently engaged infarming activities (only 30 per-cent reported involvement infarming activities before takingthe class).

Danny Dyck of Worthing, S.D.completed the course and fol-lowed up with an internship

where he gained the productionskills necessary for him and hiswife to launch their own CSA,Deep Root Gardens, which is nowin its second season of production.Said Dyck, “I've found Farm Be-ginnings and the Farmer Net-work to be indispensable tools forconnecting to other local farmers,information, and hands-on skill-building workshops. I am alwayslooking to see what kind of valu-able info the Network will provideme with next.”

Prospective participants shouldcontact Dakota Rural Action at605-697-5204 or email ProgramCoordinator Heidi Kolbeck-Urlacher at [email protected]. Class size is limited and earlyapplication is encouraged. Appli-cation deadline for the 2013Rapid City class is October 18th.Course information and onlineapplication can be found at www.dakotarural.org/farmbeginnings.

Farm Beginnings® is an estab-lished curriculum developed overa decade ago by the Minnesota-based Land Stewardship Projectthat is now replicated in severaldifferent states, including Ill.,Neb., N.D., and N.Y.

Dakota Rural Action hasadapted the curriculum to meetthe needs of South Dakota farm-ers and ranchers. The project issupported by the BeginningFarmer and Rancher Develop-ment Program of the National In-stitute of Food and Agriculture,USDA, Grant #2010-03066.

Gov. Dennis Daugaard made a successful jump from 10,000 feet just before 8 p.m. CDT on Wednes-day, August 28. Gov. Daugaard agreed to skydive with DeLon Mork, operator of the Madison DairyQueen, if the restaurant sold 32,000 Blizzards on Miracle Treat Day to raise money for Children’sMiracle Network Hospitals. Mork and the restaurant surpassed their goal by selling 38,412 Blizzards.The Governor and Mork had originally planned to skydive on Thursday, August. 15, but could notmake the jump because of weather conditions.

Gov. Dennis Daugaard soars to new heights

Florida (243,397) and Minnesota(230,421).

Although only one of the top 10states registered an increase inparticipation (New Jersey), over-all, 30 states reported higher fig-ures from the previous year.

The participation survey hasbeen compiled since 1971 by theNFHS through numbers it re-ceives from its member associa-tions. The complete 2012-13 HighSchool Athletics ParticipationSurvey is attached in PDF formatand is available on the NFHSWeb site at www.nfhs.org.

Wasta WanderingsSubmitted by

Lloyd & Margee Willey This morning it was necessaryto check last week’s “doings” justto be sure only ONE week hadflashed by. Many of you seem to be in thesame boat and another month hasseemed to disappear. Wasn’t it so enjoyable to have asmall respite from the heat? Asthe days counted down to Satur-day the mantra, “I can hold on forjust 4-3-2-1 more day/days with-out whining!” It felt so good out-side, going inside became a pun-ishment! It’s a curious thing, themorning thank yous for the dayare more fervent when the morn-ing is 50° at 6:00 rather thatn 70°!One of life’s secrets to share —don’t look at the thermometerwhen you know already the daywill be hotter/colder than iscomfy. So, all this blathering in an at-tempt to get my mind workingwith last week’s news. Thanks to all of you who havecontinued to support and partici-pate in Wasta Wildcat’s fundrais-ers. Our final “fun”-raiser in Wastais the Great Chili Cook-off at theWasta Community Hall, Septem-ber 8 at 6:00 p.m. We invite you to come, to votefor your favorite chili, enjoy someold songs in Gay Hadlocks sing-a-long and finish the evening withice cream sundaes. How can youresist? We will have the A.C. to keep uscool! I often think of Babe Bathel,when planning Wasta eventswould have many occasions tosay, “It will work out. It will alljust work fine.” And speaking of Bathels, MaryLewis and Dorothy Bathel wentto see Carl Humphrey at his newhome at the Silver Leaf in Philip. Mary reports that Carl looksvery well and seems to enjoy hisnew home. Hopefully, Wasta will have newgood neighbors moving into thehome where Carl and Anna Leelived since 1997, and were goodWasta neighbors. Faye Bryan offered a trip to theriver in her little buggy and alongthe way we spied really bigdragon flies. Faye called them“Ten spot” dragon flies. They wereas large as small birds and wereout in great number. Thanks,Faye. The squirrels keep many of usentertained in Wasta. MarilynKeyser’s favorite view from her

front window is that of bird feederthat “A” St. squirrels havemostely taken over. One fellownot only jumps to the base of thefeeder but hangs on with his backfeet to allow to lower his body toeat the seeds without letting goand then lifts himself upright torepeat the process. Barb Crawford has visitingsquirrels named and also enjoysthe entertainment. Saturday, we had a surprisefrom Selina (McGriff) Gasselingand husband Jack. they had beenin Wicksville at the Venhuizen’sauction. Jack appreciates vintagetractors and wanted to check outan interesting oldie. Selina and Jack are involvedwith the Canyon Lake Senior Cit-izens annual Polka Fest comingup soon. Back to school for Wasta kidsand Wasta has a pretty goodnumber of school age kids. Kelly green is a senior this year,with Audrina Harper and WillHouseman not far behind. We canboast two babies, MavrickWilliams and Kylee Smid. Well, we’ll get a proper tallywhen we start reporting on schoolfunctions! Rapid City High School Class of1958 is having their 55th gradua-tion reunion. Harlan and LindaEisenbraun and Bob and DellaHays are regular attendees. HopeBob’s health is okay! Happy trails!

FINANCIAL FOCUSCan "ExCESS"

RETIREMEnT DoLLaRSHELP YouR

GRanDCHILDREn?Richard Wahlstrom

www.edwardjones.com National Grandparents Day isobserved on Sept. 8. And althoughthis “Day” is not as widely knownas Mother’s Day or Father’s Day, itdoes remind us of the importanceof grandparents. If you’re a grand-parent yourself, you may be think-ing of ways to help your grandchil-dren on their journey through life.One of the greatest gifts you cangive them may be financial supportfor their college education — andone way you can help provide thissupport could be found in the dis-tributions you receive from yourretirement accounts. To understand how this tech-nique might work, you’ll need to befamiliar with the required mini-mum distribution (RMD) rulesgoverning various retirement ac-counts. Actually, they’re prettystraightforward: Once you turn70½, you’ll generally have to starttaking withdrawals from your tra-ditional IRA and your 401(k) orother employer-sponsored retire-ment plan — such as a 457(b) plan,if you work for a state or local gov-ernment, or a 403(b) plan, if youwork for an educational institu-tions or nonprofit group. (If youhave a Roth IRA, you are not re-quired to take withdrawals at anyage.) Your required minimum distri-bution is calculated by dividing theprior Dec. 31 balance of your re-tirement account by a life ex-pectancy factor published by theInternal Revenue Service. As theword “minimum” suggests, you cantake out more than this amount,but not less. You can use the money you with-draw for any purpose you choose.It may be that you need all of it tohelp support your retirementlifestyle. But if you have enoughmoney coming in from other

sources — such as Social Securityand any investments held outsideyour retirement accounts — youmay find that you don’t really needto use every dollar from yourRMDs. And if that’s the situation,you might want to devote some ofthis money to a college fund foryour grandchildren. Or you could simply give thefunds to your grandchildren’s par-ents and let them decide how bestto employ it for college. But you dohave other options. For example,you could establish a 529 plan andname your grandchildren as bene-ficiaries. With a 529 plan, any potentialearnings accumulate tax free, pro-vided they are used for qualifiedhigher education expenses. (Keepin mind, though, that 529 plan dis-tributions not used for qualified ex-penses may be subject to federaland state income tax and a 10%IRS penalty.) Furthermore, your529 plan contributions may be de-ductible from your state taxes ifyou participate in your homestate’s plan. However, 529 plansvary, so check with your tax advi-sor regarding deductibility. In all likelihood, you’ll be able tocontribute as much as you want toa 529 plan, because the lifetimecontribution limits are generous —

although these limits vary bystate. Plus, a 529 plan is flexible: Ifyour grandchild decides against aneligible college or vocational school,you can generally transfer the un-used funds to an eligible familymember. A 529 plan is not the only collegesavings vehicle available to helpyour grandchildren; for other pos-sibilities, you may want to consultwith your financial advisor. In any case, once you start tak-ing your RMDs from your retire-ment accounts, think about put-ting any “excess” amounts to workfor your grandchildren’s college ed-ucation. Your generosity could pro-vide benefits for a lifetime.

Boxes and lumber marked “J.D.Hilger, Pierre, east of Fort Pierre”were unloaded from a river boatonto the east bank of the MissouriRiver in May of 1880. JohnHilger, his brother Anson andAnson’s wife and son were wait-ing to retrieve the items.

That was the explanationAnson Hilger gave for how henamed Pierre, according toHarold H. Schuler’s A BridgeApart.

Pioneer merchants such asHilger, explorers, military offi-cers, settlers, railroad officialsand more have all left their markon South Dakota by the namesthey gave to its lakes, towns andmountains.

In 1838, 2nd Lt. John C. Fré-mont accompanied French-bornnaturalist Joseph N. Nicollet asNicollet mapped the area betweenthe Upper Mississippi and Mis-souri rivers. Frémont charted sev-eral lakes in northeastern SouthDakota.

He named Lake Benton afterhis future father-in-law and pow-erful U.S. Sen. Thomas Hart Ben-ton; Lake Preston after SouthCarolina Sen. William CampbellPreston; and Lake Poinsett afterhis friend and benefactor JoelPoinsett. Frémont christened an-other lake Abert after his supe-rior, U.S. Army Col. J.J. Abert.

This body of water later becameknown as Lake Albert.

When Gen. George ArmstrongCuster and the 7th Cavalry en-tered the Black Hills in 1874,they were journeying into a placeunknown to non-Indians. Enroute from Fort Abraham Lincolnnear present-day Mandan, N.D.,to the Black Hills, Indian scoutsled expedition members to a cavethat was an important spiritualplace to them.

Custer named the cave afterCapt. William A. Ludlow, the chiefengineer for the Department ofDakota. Custer also named astream in what is now Penning-ton County Castle Creek becausethe high cliffs between which itflows reminded him of castles. Hepresumably conferred the nameGold Run upon a small tributaryof Castle Creek.

While standing on the most el-evated portion of the Black Hills,Ludlow named two prominentpeaks for Custer and Gen. AlfredTerry.

The South Dakota name game: who named what

Ludlow and Nicolett both re-tained many place names givenby American Indians when mak-ing maps.

The town of Wasta received itsname when state historian DoaneRobinson selected the Lakotaword for “good” for the Penning-ton County community. Robinsonalso named the town of Tolstoy inhonor of the Russian writer.

Charles Prior worked in theMinneapolis office of the Chicago,Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad,deciding where new railroadtracks would go and where townswould be located along the rail-road. He is said to have named acommunity in Brown County Ab-erdeen because his boss, Alexan-der Mitchell, came from Ab-erdeen, Scotland. Prior namedanother town site Virgil due to hisadmiration of the Greek poet. Henamed Alpena for a town inMichigan, Ipswich for his ownbirthplace in England, Bath andBristol for cities in England andWoonsocket for a town in RhodeIsland. He also named Wilmot,probably after Judge Wilmot W.Brookings. A railway officialnamed the town of Bradley out ofgratitude to E.R. Bradley, whosaved his life when Bradley inter-vened in a fight between the offi-cial and laborers. Other railroadofficials named Alcester, Amherst,Canistota, Junius, Java, Huron,Hitchcock, Renner, Trent, Wor-thing, Frederick, Mystic, Orientand other towns.

Settlers sometimes made them-selves feel more “at home” bynaming their new town after theone they had left. Edward Tiltonand other settlers named Hart-ford for their home town in Con-necticut. Czech settlers namedTabor for a town in Bohemia.

William Van Epps named Madi-son because the nearby lakes re-minded him of the Wisconsin city.

Other settlers honored peopleby naming a place after them. Dr.O. Richmond named Tyndall forJohn Tyndall, a British scientist.

Lily was named by the town’sfirst postmaster, Ross Parks, afterhis sister, Lily. Holabird owes itsname to Henry Wicker, superin-tendent of the North WesternRailroad. He gave his bride’s fam-ily name to the new town.

As for the state’s most well-known geographic feature, onestory goes that an eastern attor-ney was in the Black Hills in theearly 1880s when he asked hisguide the name of a granite peak.

The guide, William Challis,said that the mountain did nothave a name before, but wouldnow bear the lawyer’s name. An-other story states that the attor-ney joked that he had visited theBlack Hills so many times that hehad earned the right to have themountain named after him.

The attorney’s name wasCharles Rushmore, and whateverthe story, the United States Boardof Geographic Names officiallyrecognized the name MountRushmore in 1930.

Rushmore’s name, like that ofJohn Tyndall, Thomas Hart Ben-ton and so many others, lives onin South Dakota’s geographicnames.

In 2009, the South Dakota Leg-islature created the S.D. Board onGeographic Names to replace cer-tain geographic place names con-sidered offensive.

The board has established apublic process and works with theU.S. Board on GeographicNames. For more information, seewww.sdbgn.sd.gov.

The Wall EagleFootball teamopened the sea-son by dominat-ing the WhiteRiver Tigers bythe score of 47 to6.

As you lookedat White River itappeared as if itwere a David andG o l i a t hmatchup. Theyhad a front linethat blocked thesun. Wall facedpossibly thelargest opponentthey may see allseason.

Also in theback of the Ea-gles minds wasthe previousyear’s game withthe Tigers. Oncethe game began,soon the Eagleswould spreadtheir wings andfly.

The Eaglesdominating de-fense and explo-sive offense seemed too much forthe Tigers. Though smaller, Wallwould use their quickness and ag-gressive play to control the line ofscrimmage and the game.

As you watched the game itseemed the Eagles became moredominant throughout the night.

The defense was all over theTigers allowing 45 yards of of-fense and zero points throughthree quarters. White Riverwould finish the game with sixpoints and 107 yards of offense.

The defense had a solid per-formance in the trenches fromRidge Sandal, Tyler Peterson,Ben Linn, Clancy Lytle andFreshman Cass Lytle.

Lane Blasius led the Eagles de-fense with 12 tackles followedclosely by Les Williams with 11.

While the defense was swarm-ing the offense was soaring. The

Eagles soar in season opener

Eagles executed very well allnight in the air and on theground.

Wall finished with 334 yardsrushing and 120 yards passing fora total of 454 yards of offense. Onaverage we scored every fiveplays.

Once again our offensive line ofscrimmage did a great job againstsuperior size.

Peterson, Lytle, Sandal,Williams, and Linn opened theway for the Eagles offensive suc-cess.

Carson Johnston opened manyeyes as he rushed 10 times for 241yards and three touchdowns. Hewas explosive and proved he hasbreakaway speed.

There was early concern as full-back Cade Kjerstad pulled upwith a leg injury. Then Raedon

Anderson cameoff with a kneeinjury after thefirst play of of-fense. Gabe San-dal would an-swer the call atfullback as he ledJ o h n s t o nthrough the holeand ran the ballin an aggressivenature.

When weweren’t runningthe ball the Ea-gles were domi-nating throughthe air. Blasiuspassed 11 timesand completedseven for 120yards.

Trevor Ander-son caught theball four timesfor 83 yards anda touchdown.

Ben Linncaught three for37 yards and atouchdown.

Gabe Sandalended the scor-ing with a fiveyard touchdownrun.

Special Teams also did somedamage as T. Anderson returnedthree punts for 103 yards, one ofwhich he took back 79 yards forthe score. He also added threePAT kicks. T. Anderson also didthe kickoff duties.

The Eagles used the dirty ballmany times along with solid kickcoverage. Williams punted oncefor 43 yards.

Overall, we had a solid firstgame. We stressed all week thatthe most important game of theseason was game one.

Now we focus on the secondmost important game. Game twoagainst a physical Jones Co.team.

Jones Co. lost their seasonopener to Kadoka 20 to 34. Thegame will be in Murdo at 7:00CST or 6:00 MST.
