Briggs swaps lawyers
before October hearing
Former candidate for
governor will have court
appointed counsel
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A Kincaid Republican
who ran a primary race for his partys nomination to run for governor
will have a first appearance in district court in October on a criminal
threat charge in connection with a
long-running feud with Anderosn
County Sheriffs Office deputies.
George Arlyn Briggs, 65 of
Kincaid, will be appointed counsel
by the state after firing his retained
lawyer in late July. Attorney Daniel
Kennedys motion to withdraw
from the case said it was based on
Briggs request, and because their
attorney-client relationship and
communication had broken down.
The move came a day before a
scheduled July 26
first court appearance. Briggs is
released on three
separate $75,000
bonds relating to
the charge and to
violating protective orders from
department perBriggs

Friction between
Briggs and the department was
apparently rooted in Briggs

USD 365 budget tops RNR by
$476,000, reschedules hearing date
GARNETT An erroneous location
listed for the USD 365 budget hearing in a previously published budget has forced the rescheduling of
that hearing to September 26, when
board members and members of
the public will address a $476,000
local tax increase over last year.
The districts published budget
for 2022-2023 (found on Page 2 of
todays Review) authorizes various
spending increases netting a $3.7
million increase over last years
budget. That overall plan includes
a local property tax increase of
$476,000 that requires special notification and hearing actions if local
taxes exceed the previous years
amount.
The budget hearing is set for 7:30
p.m. Sept. 26 at the district office at
305 N. Oak in Garnett.
Total spending for 2022-2023 is
planned at $22.4 million, compared
to $18.7 million for 2021-2022. That
figure was a decrease from 2020SEE 365 ON PAGE 2

director resigns to take state position
GARNETT Anderson Countys
Emergency Management Director
J.D. Mersman resigned effective
the end of this month to take a post
with the State of Kansas.
Mersman confirmed last week
he will leave the position hes held
since 2013 to go to work as the
16-county regional coordinator for
the Kansas Division of Emergency
Management. He tendered his resignation to county commissioners
at the August 29 commission meeting.
Mersman was a volunteer firefighter and Emergency Medical
Technician before going to work
for the county as deputy director
of emergency management in 2007,
and was promoted
to the lead position after Marvin
Grimes the departments first fulltime
director resigned.
He said the position will put him on
the road a lot but he

Former Garnett teacher co-authors
book on benefits of school choice
Dorsey, Trabert detail school
performance, ties to preservation
of Kansas school bureaucracy
BY PATRICK RICHARDSON
Members of the Greeley Fire Department serve lunch customers at Saturdays Greeley Smokeoff. The
event is an annual fundraiser for various charities designated by BBQ teams from across the region.
THE SENTINEL
TOPEKA One in three students in Kansas
is below grade level in reading and math, but
instead of addressing the problem, the states
education bureaucracy tries to deny the truth
by claiming that grade level is not measured on
state tests.
That is just one example of what the authors
of a new book charge is an intractable bureaucracy in Kansas that works against students:
Giving Kids a Fighting Chance with School
Choice Resolving the Social Justice Issue
Perpetuated by Kansas Public Schools. The
book is published by the Sentinels parent
company the Kansas Policy Institute and
co-authored by former Garnett resident David
Dorsey and Dave Trabert of the KPI. Trabert
and Dorsey make it clear its the bureacracy, not
teachers, that are undermining Kansas student
achievement.
The
book
tells story after
story of education officials
consciously
deceiving parents and legislators, de-emphasizing academic
improvement,
and
ignoring
state laws.
This
is
not a teacher
problem; it is
a
management
problem,
the book reads.
Local school boards
and superintendents have made it clear that
accountability measures are unwelcome,
whether in state law or policy.
The book cites one example how a 2019 state
audit examining how Kansas schools spend
at-risk funding concluded that most at-risk

Notice of hearing USD 365 2022-2023 budget
365…
2021s authorized spending of
$19 million. The local taxpayer
portion of this years budget
rides on the back of an 18 percent increase in the districts
assessed property valuation
due to increases in local property values, from $89.6 million
last year to $105.9 million in
2022-2023.
Big ticket increases in this
years budget include several non-local tax funded line
items, including an increase
in federal pass-through funding associated with government Covid stimulus efforts.
Superintendent Don Blome said
these funds, which increased
from $614,000 to $1.1 million
this year, are earmarked for
learning loss areas such as
summer school, after school
tutoring, professional development, curriculum changes,
retention incentives to maintain employees, etc. Blome said
those funds have to be spent by
2024 and cant take the place of
other planned expenditures.
Special education funding is
another non-local tax line item
to see a substantial increase.
These state funds come through
the districts special education
cooperative and are partially
funded by the districts Local
Option Budget paid to the
cooperative for member services. Blome said these funds,
increasing from $1.9 to $2.4 million, cover transportation costs
for special programs, curriculum and other expenses. While
authorized, those funds may
not all be spent during a single
budget year.
Capital outlay funds are
driven by a 7.5 mill levy as part
of local tax contributions, and
will generate some $794,000 this
year toward a total fund of $2.2
million. Capital outlay funds
are banked year-to-year and
used for building improvement
and repair and major equipment purchases. Blome said
some capital projects in recent
years include replacement of
doors and windows at ACJSHS,
changes to LED lighting, building foundation repairs and purchase of school buses.

BLUBAUGH
MAY 19, 1943 – SEPTEMBER 3, 2022
Evelyn June Blubaugh,
age 79, a resident of Olathe,
Kansas, passed away Saturday,
September 3 2022, in Olathe.
She was born May 19, 1943,
in Topeka,
Kansas, the
daughter
of
Marcus
O l i v e r
Studebaker
and
Pearl
Leah Long.
From
an
early
age,
Blubaugh
Evelyn was
raised by her
grandparents, William and
Lucille Long on the family
farm near Westphalia, Kansas.
She attended Pleasant Valley
Rural School and St. Teresas
Catholic School and went on to
graduate from the Westphalia
High School with the Class of
1961. The Long and Blubaugh
families were neighbors and
friends in Westphalia; however, the romance between
Evelyn and Russell began
at the skating rink in Iola,
Kansas. They were married on
June 8, 1961. Together, Evelyn
and Russell settled into life on
the farm. Evelyns home was
always a beehive of activity
as she worked to maintain the
day to day behind the scenes
operations of the farm. She
cooked for their farmhands
and anyone else who happened
to show up at their home at
noon. In 1985, Russell and
Evelyn found it necessary to
move off the farm and chose
to move to Olathe. Life in the
city presented a new set of
opportunities, as garage sales
were plentiful, fabric stores
and garden centers were just
around the corner and department stores and supermarkets were always having a big
sale. Evelyn was ready with
her hands full of coupons or
Kohls Cash. Everyone knew
if Evelyn wasnt home, she was
probably at Dillons. Evelyn
will be remembered for her
excellent cooking and baking,
as well as her talents with a
needle and thread. She made
many a dress for her daughters
and granddaughters, and also
for their Barbie and baby dolls.
Many children have been the
recipient of one of Evelyns
baby blankets. Evelyn was a
devoted wife and mother and a
loving grandmother to her four
granddaughters, and worked
hard to make special memories
with them all. She will be lovingly missed by all who knew
and loved her.
Survivors include her husband, Russell, of the home in
Olathe, her two daughters,
Diane Hastert (Duane) of
Garnett, Kansas and Deann
Mitchell (Greg) of Olathe,
Kansas; four granddaughters,
Meagan Ingold (Josh), Lauryn
Hastert (Jesse Linzay), Shelby
Ellis (Tim) and Sydney Gray
(Tristan) and two great-grandsons, Carter and Kaysen
Ingold. Also surviving are two
half-brothers, Dan Krauth and
Marvin Studebaker (Maria)
and a half-sister, Beverly Poe.
Evelyn was preceded in death
by twin great-granddaughters,
Marcie and Jaycie Ellis and a
half-brother, Steve Studebaker.
Pastor Chris Goetz conducted
funeral
services
September 8th at the First
Christian Church, 200 S.
Walnut St., Garnett, Kansas.
Burial followed in the Mont
Ida Cemetery. Donations in her
memory may be sent to the
Garnett Public Library, 125 W.
Fourth St., Garnett, KS 66032
or left in care of the funeral
home, Cheney Witt Chapel, 201

REMEMBRANCES
Four Colony Churches
host service after event
Following Colony Days, the
four churches of Colony held
a community wide church
service outside in downtown
Colony on Sunday morning.
Music was led by the
Christian church and the
Cowboy church.
Scripture
was read by Leonard Wools of
the Methodist church. Wayne
Minkley, pastor of the Cowboy
church, gave the communion
meditation.
Chase Riebel, pastor of the
Christian church, preached the
sermon and Henry Womelsdorf,
pastor of the Community
church, wrapped up the service with prayer. Following
the service was a community
potluck with delicious food and
great comradery. Continuing
the theme of Colony Days,
Pastor Chase expounded upon
what it means to be Living
the Sweet Life. Contrary to
popular belief, the sweet life is
not found in riches and power.
King Solomon pointed that out
in his writings in Ecclesiastes.
Zacchaeus found out it is much
sweeter to give those things
away once you find the true
meaning of the sweet life. Even
Moses gave up all the treasures
of Egypt, considering it sweeter to suffer with the people of
God because of the greater eternal reward that will be gained
after this life is over. Psalms
1:1-3 provides three simples
steps to living the sweet life.
First, you must accept Jesus
as your Savior and Lord. The
advice of the wicked and the
ways of sinners only leads to
destruction, but joy is found
in the ways of the Lord. Jesus
came so that those who believe
in him will have a full and satisfying life. Secondly, we are to
delight and meditate on Gods
Word. The Bible is not an out
of date and irrelevant book.
Hebrews 4:12 explains that the
Word of God is alive and active,
able to judge our attitudes and
hearts. It has the power to
transform us by renewing our
minds (Romans 12:2) if we will
meditate on it. The third step
to living the sweet life is to bear
the sweet fruit of the Spirit.
How much sweeter can you get
than living in and producing
love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness,
faithfulness, and self control
(Gal 5:22-34)? Tis so sweet to
trust in Jesus!

Which road are you on?
In the Walt Disney classic
Alice in Wonderland Alice
stands at the fork in the road
and wonders which way she
should go. She sees the cat
in the tree and asks which
way she should go. The cat
answers, that depends on
which way you are going.
Alice answers, I dont know.
The cat then responds, then I
guess it doesnt matter.
It was Yogi Berra who said,
when you come to the fork
in the road take it. Most of
the time lifes choices are like
forks in the road. They can go
in opposite directions and lead
to different destinations.
In Matthew 7:13-14 Jesus
says, Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate
and broad is the road that leads
to destruction, and many enter
through it. But small is the gate
and narrow the road that leads
to life and only a few find it .
This does not mean that it is
difficult to become a Christian
but the way to becoming a
Christian is extremely narrow.
In my life I have taken both
forks and I have found out that
even though the gate was wide
and the road was broad after
I entered in and went a ways
the road narrowed down and
the way became difficult. On
the contrary, even though the
other fork was small and narrow the way opened up after I
had gone a ways and it became
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
easier not more difficult.
In John 10:9 Jesus says, I
am the gate; whoever enters
through me will be saved.
By this statement Jesus eliminates any other alternatives
for salvation. He makes the
way of salvation as narrow as
possible. Most people today do
not have much tolerance for
such narrow theology. They
want to contribute to their salvation in some way. That is
why the wide gate and broad
road are so crowded.
After many turns at the fork
in the road I found out what
Jesus said was true. It has
to be that narrow, otherwise
what did the cross accomplish?
Christ died for my sins and for
your sins. Jesus took my sins
and gave me his righteousness
in return. What could I add?
The direction we choose to go
at the fork in the road matters.
One direction leads to life and
the other leads to destruction.
Which road are you on?

the Holiness of God.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, September 13, 2022
OPINION
To rise above her record,
Kelly needs a bigger suitcase
Elevating Governor Laura Kelly out of the
mucky incompetence of economic shutdowns,
school closures and unemployment fraud thats
come to characterize her governorship is going
to take a bigger suitcase than she stood on at
the Kansas State Fair gubernatorial debate last
week.
Seeking some kind of apparent equity with
her opponent Republican Derek Schmidt, whos
6-foot 5 inches tall, organizers of the first governor candidate debate of this years election
decided to perch the more vertically challenged
Kelly on an equipment case to raise her profile
onstage. The move was no doubt to escape the
kind of imagery that fueled the classic 1988
Saturday Night Live spoof of the Bush/Dukakis
presidential debate. In that classic, the diminutive Dukakis (Jon Lovitz) climbed aboard some
unseen elevation contraption at the podium,
and to the sound effect grind of electric motors,
hoists himself first taller than Dana Carveys
George Bush, then back to parity.
The scene made those in attendance wonder:
Whats next? Put Kelly in a camouflage helmet
and perch her in a Kansas National Guard tank
for her next television commercial?
Unfortunately that extra foot of prosthetic
stature doesnt allow Kelly to rise above her
record, nor does her whiny refrain of Sam
Brownback every time Schmidt talks about
leadership, ideas, policy and common sense
decision making.
The fact is that now ending her first term,
Kellys boots are irretrievably stuck in the mess
she made and the values she tried to hide in her
first election four years ago. Shes been revealed
as just another Blue State Joe Biden order
taker, following Democrat policy in lockstep
with failed national dictums and hoping Kansas
voters will stay drunk with borrowed Covid
money long enough to get her reelected.
Like Joe Biden, Kellys hits just keep coming. The latest is the revelation that on Kellys
watch hackers bilked more than $400 million
in Kansas unemployment funds from Kansas
employers accounts no ones exactly sure of
the real number even yet. This is money that
comes right out of the unemployment accounts
funded by the pockets of small businesses and
other employers of all sizes to protect Kansas
workers in the event they lose their jobs. Now
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
not only is the money gone, but hundreds of
thousands of Kansas workers have to worry that
their social security numbers a hot commodity

The breach of Kansas DOL information that
Kellys lack of oversight allowed to happen may
end up costing billions and may even cost lives
before its all said and done.
But thats just the latest. Kellys legacy of
throwing the states businesses and school children on the Covid hand grenade in 2020 is
inescapable, even when she tries to deflect to
the topic to the never-ending addiction to more
school funding.
Fully funding schools can only work if you
dont lock the kids out of them after theyre fully
funded, Schmidt quipped onstage.
And to Kelly, that great education is more
reserved for men who say theyre women than
it is for everybody else. If some boy goes all
Shania Twain and says he really feels like a
woman and beats your daughter in the 200
meter hurdles at Beloit High School or even at
the University of Kansas, Kelly thinks thats perfectly fine. She vetoed twice legislation that
would have banned transgender competition in
female sports in Kansas. So much for equity.
That boys and girls are different should be
pretty easy fact, but Kelly doesnt even recognize
facts when the numbers are right in front of her.
So eager was she to deflect from the fact that

Critical Race Theory Is Burning Down The
Policies in disaster, all Biden has left is Trump
The gaslighting of America that began
during the Obama years and increased after
the Jan. 6 Capitol riot has reached epic proportions over the past month. But the optics and
content of President Joe Bidens outrageous
prime-time address last week marked a new
low for an administration that has presided
over the most massive government power
grab in U.S. political history.
Against a blood red background, two
Marines stood behind the president as he
delivered a speech for the ages. Biden wanted
to be crystal clear that everything is at risk
in this country because of the Republican
Party, including peoples so-called right to
abortion, the Social Security you paid for
from the time you had a job, childrens safety
from gun violence, the right to vote, and the
very survival of our planet. Heck, MAGA
Republicans are even a threat to democracy
itself, he warned, because they refuse to accept
the will of the people and embrace political
violence. Trump loyalists are trying to destroy
the country, he railed.
This was gaslighting, pure and simple.
Apart from Republicans efforts to place limits
on abortion, everything the president said was
a lie. Indeed, Biden was employing a tactic
once favored by Joseph Goebbels and the KGB
the time-honored practice of accusing ones
political opponents of what they themselves
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
ELIZABETH STAUFFER, WASHINGTON EXAMINER
are doing.
Biden is and always has been an imbecile.
But now hes become dangerous. In his undeniably diminished cognitive state, he is little
more than a vehicle to be used by the far-left
ruling class to facilitate the transformation of
America to one-party rule.
He is hardly the only voice parroting these
lies. His entire administration is involved,
including his communications team and his
allies in the legacy media.
His Department of Justice and FBI are at
the tip of the spear. Little did former President
Donald Trump know when he replaced thenFBI Director James Comey with Christopher
Wray in 2017 that it made no difference. Both
were well-connected members of Washingtons
permanent ruling class, an elite and powerful
group of government bureaucrats who share
a common objective: gaining and maintaining
political power. The entire lot of them made it
their mission to block the rude, crude interloper that was Trump from intruding upon the
privileged, influential world theyd worked so
hard to create.
To this day, the DOJ and the FBI are still
working with Democrats and two anti-Trump
Republicans in Congress to convince voters
that Trump incited the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection. Frankly, if I had insurrection on my
mind, I wouldnt have stopped to take a tour of
the Capitol. But thats just me.
The DOJs Aug. 8 raid on Trumps Mar-aLago estate seems to have been a search for
evidence to be used by Congress against him
in that case. Democrats in Congress have even
admitted that they hope the DOJs investigation will result in the indictment and disqualification of Trump.
All of this is a manufactured offensive
against Trump and MAGA Republicans, the
goal of which is to distract voters from the
perilous state of the country after 20 months
of one-party governance.
SEE STAUFFER ON PAGE 6
Stark reality: Biden and Trump need each other
Joe Biden and Donald Trump are proving
that even sworn enemies can cooperate to
promote one anothers political interests.
President Biden, with his criticism, and his
Department of Justice, with its search of Mara-lago and related investigation, have boosted
Trumps profile to the benefit of both Biden
and his party and of Donald Trump.
Everyone wins, except Republicans
increasingly worried about the midterms and
anyone hoping that the GOP would turn the
page in 2024.
Several weeks ago, Republicans were nervous that Trump would announce his latest
presidential bid prior to the midterms. Now, it
is almost irrelevant — Democrats and the DOJ
have effectively announced for him.
Whenever things arent going well for a
White House or a political campaign, the
natural advice is to try to change the subject.
This often doesnt work — the maneuver is too
obvious, or the new hoped-for subject cant
possibly compete with the old unwelcome
subject.
Thats not the case here. Trump is something everyone wants to talk about: people
who love him, people who hate him, journalists whose work gets more clicks and viewership, and of course, above all, Trump himself,
who has never found any other topic quite as
compelling or important.
To the extent Republican officials and candidates identify themselves with Trumps
delusions about 2020 and get sucked into
debating whether the FBI should exist, they
are creating vulnerabilities or distractions
where none need exist.
According to a new CBS News poll, 47%
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
of voters say that how they feel about Trump
will have a lot of influence on how they vote.
Independents who say that Trump is a factor
for them are voting to oppose him by a 4-1
margin.
All of this is good for Democrats in general
and Biden in particular. If the president can
define himself as the last, best obstacle to
Trump returning to the White House, it helps
quell the extensive doubts about him within
his own party. Biden is barely above 40%
approval in polling averages, a nightmarish
position, and yet hes only down 2.2% in a
hypothetical rematch with Trump in 2024,
according to RealClearPolitics.
Trump is his life-preserver and comfort
blanket, providing a political boost based on
the easiest political argument in the world
— See that guy over there obsessed with fanciful theories about the 2020 election? I may not
be a very good president. But at least Im not
him.
Meanwhile, the Trump phenomenon has
always been a form of political jujitsu, using
the force deployed against it as a source of
strength. The more Trump is called names
and investigated, the better. Not to make light
of it, but if the FBI had shown up at Mar-alago with an armored vehicle and a couple of
helicopters, Trumps lead over Florida Gov.
Ron DeSantis, which had dwindled before
jumping back up after the search, would be all
but insurmountable.
If Trump is bolstered by Bidens hostility,
he also benefits from his weakness. Trumps
favorable rating is about 40%, a poor showing
that would be enough to make him the underdog against any president who hadnt been
cratering over the past year. Trump doesnt
just narrowly beat Biden in prospective 2024
polling, he handily defeats Vice President
Kamala Harris. Theres being fortunate in
your enemies, then theres hitting the jackpot.
So Trump and Biden compensate for one
anothers weaknesses, and they are effectively working together to get Trump nominated
— which Trump wants because its the first
step back to the White House and Biden wants
because Trump would be the riskiest GOP
candidate in a general election.
Its not the most edifying relationship.
Indeed, its a de facto partnership toward
a demoralizing re-run of 2020. But neither
Trump nor Biden is as likely to get where they
want to go without the other.

Thank you.
How about we have a rule that if a book is too
pornographic to be displayed and read aloud at
government meetings like the library board or
school district, then it is too pornographic for
the tax-funded library available to children?
To whom this may concern: Concerning Park
Road from city limits east to Highway 169.
Before winter, please resurface Park Road and
replace road markings. Reason: heavy fog, rain
and hail; snow in ditches, federal mailboxes,
fast dark early morning traffic, fast dark night
traffic. Well be watching for a correction on this
dangerous road.
Enough already about Gender Queer and
bashing our great library and its board. You
must be the same people who believe the election was stolen. Get over it. The board made its
decision just like the voters did.
So if your baby gets too big for the bed, do you
buy a bigger bed or just let it squander in something too small for it? Wake up county commissioners. The county needs a new fire barn.
We have two traffic lights in town; one has a lot
of progress around it, one has nothing but junk.
Why?
I thought we were supposed to be examples for
our children.
Regarding the article concerning Mr.
Schoonovers letter to Mr. Hayner of Hayner
Whiskey: I know Prohibition did not work when
they tried it, however the evils of alcohol, the
terrible toll of lives lost to liver disease, cancer
and other ailments rooted in alcohol abuse are
massive. Billions of dollars paid by insurance
and passed along to all drivers all to cover damage from alcohol accidents are huge. Even more
billions in health care and claims. The problem
with alcohol is much larger than it was in the
early 1900s. But our society loves to party, loves
its alcohol. TV shows and movies all glorify
alcohol use. If you have a problem drink; have
something to celebrate drink; if everything is
okay drink; just want to talk with your friend
drink. Mr. Schoonover had it right back in the
1900s. Too bad Prohibition didnt work.

Im able to find at least two or

In the top left picture, do
any of you ladies recognize

Many of you will say Why
thats a potato peeler. You will

ent investigation of a friend in
Colony. An affidavit used to
justify Briggs arrest alleged
he threatened officers during
a recorded 911 call to sheriffs
dispatch when he was denied
information on the investigation, saying he would shoot
any officers who came on his
property. The affidavit says
Briggs then made anonymous
911 calls requesting a welfare check at his home, in an
attempt to get officers to show
up there.
During a separate run with
officers in the lobby of the
county sheriffs office, the
affidavit says Briggs claimed
to have a cache of automatic
weapons. The feud appeared
to centralize around a deputy who is no longer with the

HISTORY
you will be tracked and
hunted down like an animal,
one of the recordings quoted
Briggs as saying. He told the
Iola Register in an interview
he meant the comments metaphorically and didnt intend
anyone any harm.
Briggs garnered nearly
89,000 votes statewide among
Republicans in his primary
gubernatorial race against
Attorney General Derek
Schmidt, who posted more
than 373,000.
spending was used for teachers
and programs for all students
and did not appear to specifically address at-risk students
as required by state law. The
state school board president
responded with a newspaper
column that basically said,
shut up, go away, we know
what were doing.
The authors also shed light
on what they call educational
discrimination in the book.
Public school officials
enthusiastically declare their
devotion to ending racism
and discrimination, yet they
perpetuate race-based and
income-based educational discrimination. Black 8th-graders
are nearly three years worth
of learning behind White students in reading across the
nation, and thats been relatively unchanged over the last 20
years. Here in Kansas, low-income 4th-graders are reading
2.7 years behind other students,
and it is getting worse.
Trabert said the public education system wont fix this on
its own.
Youd think the education
bureaucracy would be laser-focused on ending educational
discrimination, he said. But
youd be wrong. We wrote
this book because Kansas has
an education crisis, and the
bureaucracy tries to sweep it
under the rug.
The authors make evident in
Giving Kids a Fighting Chance
with School Choice that the
Kansas public school system
works against student inter-
ests and is designed to sustain
the system and the adults who
work in it. The book follows the
2019 release of a documentary
with the same name by KPI
that places a human face on the
crisis facing Kansas schools.
More money is not improving dismal achievement.
School districts spent about
$17,000 per student last year,
but barely half goes to instruction, Trabert said. Perstudent spending adjusted for
inflation jumped 52% between
1992 and 2019, but inflation-adjusted teacher pay declined 9%.
The money is there, but the
bureaucracy doesnt use it to
improve achievement. There
are more high school students
below grade level in Kansas
than are proficient, and that
wont change if the bureaucracy is left to do as it pleases.
Kansas governors have
endorsed or lived in fear of
the education bureaucracy
The authors say Kansas
has never had a governor who
champions choice, transparency, and accountability on
behalf of students.
Toward the end of his term
in office, Republican Governor
Sam Brownback (201118)
called on the legislature to
pass school choice measures
and grade schools AF in his
2017 State of the State address,
but that was too little and too
late. He knew that achievement
was dismally low upon taking
office, as he privately acknowledged on several occasions.
But Brownback was unwilling
to take on the political fight
with the education lobby.
The states current governor, Democrat Laura Kelly,
openly sides with the education establishment that effectively endorses race-based
and income-based educational
discrimination. Like all politicians, she says she is a big
supporter of students, but her
actions paint a different picture.
Kelly vetoed the Parents Bill
of Rights legislation on curriculum transparency, as well as
the Fairness in Womens Sports
Act. The book also exposes that
Kellys Commission on Racial
Equity turned a blind eye to
blatant educational race-based
educational discrimination.
The authors contend that
educational discrimination
is the social justice issue of
our times, and they show that,
while Kansas has been going
backward, states like Florida
and Arizona are recording
strong gains for minorities and
low-income students. Arizona
and Virginia both expanded
choice options this year.
Robust choice programs
and a healthy dose of transparency propelled Florida from
one of the worst states twenty
years ago to now one of the
best, Trabert said. Arizona
also registered outsized gains
since expanding choice, and
Gov. Doug Ducey just signed
a massive school choice expansion.
Giving Kids a Fighting Chance
with School Choice is available
on Amazon. Kansas Policy
Institute is also mailing free
copies to donors.

Vikings open the season 0-2 on the gridiron
FROM PAGE 4
Is this strategy working?
Maybe. According to the
RealClearPolitics average of
polls, as of Wednesday, 42.3%
of likely voters approve of the
job Biden is doing. At the end
of July, just prior to the FBIs
unprecedented raid on Trumps
home, the RealClearPolitics
average of Biden job approval polls stood at 36.7%, more
than 5 points lower. Passage
of the Inflation Reduction Act
and other legislation boosted
the average to 39.5%, where
it stood on the day of the FBI
raid. It has since climbed over
2.5 points.
Moreover, despite the record
high inflation triggered by
excessive government spending, our wide-open southern
border that has allowed more
than 2 million illegal immigrants to enter the country in
the past fiscal year alone, and
soaring crime rates caused by
soft-on-crime district attorneys, Democrats have prevailed in recent special elections.
It wasnt too long ago that
pundits were predicting a red
tsunami in November because
of these issues. Not anymore.
The gaslighting is moving
the needle. With speeches
like Bidens, well-timed leaks
by the DOJ, and an obedient
media, Democrats efforts to
draw voters attention away
from the real problems we face
and to make the election about
classified documents found in
a Mar-a-Lago storage room are
having the desired effect.
Republicans need to cut
through this distraction and
return the focus to the kitchen
table issues that are important
to most people. How much does
it cost to feed our families or to
fill up our gas tanks? Do we feel
safe walking down the street
in our cities and towns? Are
our children being provided a
worthwhile education?
Democrats will continue
to abuse their power so long
as they believe doing so will
help them maintain it. Weve
been down this road before.
Republicans can stand by
and hope that independents,
who decide elections, wont
be fooled again. Or, they can
stand up and fight to expose
the Democratic Party for what
it has become: a group of farleft ideologues seeking to transform the United States into a
single-party state.

We ran and they were

We ran through the forest to

The ice goats were on duty, so
everything was covered with
snow and ice.
We dug into a snowdrift and
closed the entrance. We had
food and water because our
house was buried in the snow

Bulldogs hope 2nd
year under new coach
leads to more wins
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT The first year
under the new regime resulted
in just a 2-7 record, but Luke
Catloth and his Anderson
County Bulldogs are looking to
improve on that despite several
key losses.
Gone are Chaylin Peine
(65, 280), Dalton Kellerman
(63, 225) and Reece Katzer
(69, 230). Replacing that kind
of size is always a difficult task.
Peine will be playing at the
University of Central Arkansas
and Katzer is at Coffeyville
Community College, then
throw in the fact that Fisher
Galey (RB,LB) from last
year is playing at Hutchison
Community College and it is
evident that the team had some
individual talent despite their
struggles on the field.
A large part of those struggles were due to an incredibly
difficult schedule. Five of the
9 teams they played ended the
season with a winning record
with three of them winning 10
games.
Improvements on both sides
of the ball will be key to turning the page from last season.
The Bulldogs were limited to
one touchdown or less in 5 of
their 9 games. In fact, through
their 8 regular season games
they mustered just 9.5 points
per game while allowing just
over 32 points per contest.

Bulldog volleyball enters a new chapter with a new coach
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT The transition
from one coach to another can
often be a difficult process that
can take some time, but the
experience of the Bulldogs as
well as new head coach Tarrie
Miller having familiarity with
the team as she has been an
assistant for the past 4 years for
Anderson County.
A large group of upperclassmen could make the season a
success despite the aforementioned challenge.
Coach Miller is happy
to have 5 talented returning
seniors on the team. Josie
Miller, Emma Schaffer, Tatem
Troyer, Tarin Rues and Ella
Reichard.
It will be hard to divvy up
playing time as the Bulldogs
also have a large junior class
that is very talented as well.
The six returning juniors
expected to help contribute
are Brenna Kohlmeier, Caitlyn
Foltz, Kylie Disbrow, Rilyn
Sommer, Brooke Galey, and
Aubrey Thompson.
Internally no doubt the
expectations are high for Coach
Miller, but first and foremost
she just wants her girls to compete hard each and every day.

Experienced girls highlight ACHS cross county teams
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT The expectations
are the same every year for
the Bulldogs boys and girls
cross country teams which is
to win the league, place top 3
at regionals and let the chips
fall where they may at the state
championship races.
Those are the goals of a
17 year veteran head coach,
Michael Sibley.
The boys return 8 returning
letter winners, but they are still
young and will also be looking
at replacing their top runner a
year ago in Kasen Fudge.
The 8 guys returning are
senior Tucker Nelson and
Ty Hedrick, juniors Easton
Wettstein, Hershyl Corley and
Landon Kraft and sophomores
Brody Barnes, Brodie Wiesner
and Asher Velvick.
The boys are talented and
overall have some potential.
We are young and are just
beginning to realize how fast
they can run, Sibley said.
Conversely, the girls return
just 5 letter winners, but they
were the top 5 runners last
year and qualified and finished
9th at state last year. They are
senior Orra Lutz, juniors Addie
Fudge and Kassie Mains and
sophomores Rachel Godwin
and Sarah Jungo.
With dedication, we could
have a top 5 finish this year,
Coach Sibley stated.
The girls lone loss from last
year is Emily Moyer.
As always, league competition will give the Bulldogs
many challenges that will prepare them for the postseason.
The Pioneer League will be
very competitive this year with
outstanding 3A & 4A schools

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT The Anderson
County Bulldogs have built
quite the successful golf program as head coach Nicole
Wiehl heads into her 14th year
leading the way.
As is the case in most years,
a key leader or leader is lost
and the 2022 squad is facing the
same situation.
Graduated from last years
state qualifying team is Ally
Duke. Not only was she the top
finisher at the state competition, finishing 8th overall, but
she was the heart and sole of
the girls squad. In fact, Duke
placed in 6 of the 8 tournaments on the year.
We lost a key player,
Coach Wiehl stated matter of
factly, referring to the loss of
Duke.
She was not only a great
golfer, she was also the emotional leader of the team. She
pushed her teammates to the
best of their ability, Wiehl
stated.
Wiehl added, We will miss
her this year but wish her the
best as she plays for Nebraska
Wesleyan University.
Expected to leap into that
leader role position will be
seniors Aislyn Smith and
Reese Witherspoon.
I feel that both Reese and
Aislyn will work together as
senior leaders for this team,
Coach Weihl said.
A pair of juniors also return
as letter winners from last
year. Reagan Witherspoon and
Alexis Overstreet.
Alexis has been working
on her game over the summer
and always brings a positive
attitutude to the team, Coach
said.
It will be tough to duplicate
last years success as the team
finished in the top 3 at 2 of the
8 tournaments they competed

Regionals to qualify for state
and finished in 8th place overall, failing to qualify for action
on day two.
The only two other athletes
on the team that didnt letter
last year are juniors Hallie
Munsey and Bethanie Cooper.
Our weakness this year
would be a small team and
some of our juniors dont have
as much experience. But with
a small group I can spend more
time with them individually at
practices, Coach Wiehl said.
Despite the small numbers,
the key will be how the top 4
golfers compete.
One of our team goals
would be for all four of our
players to shoot consistent
scores. Scores in the 90s would
be even better. I know they are
capable and I know this team
is very motivated to do their
best, Coach Wiehl concluded.

Lancers football is loaded with experience and talent
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY While last season
wasnt exactly a disappointment as the Crest Lancers finished with a winning record
on the gridiron but following a
season in which they won their
first 10 games, they are looking
for a rebound season this year.
It is a goal that is well within
reach as last years team didnt
have a senior on it, so they will
return their entire team and
add a couple more key pieces
as well.
Coach Nick McAnulty is
21-9 overall leading Crest as he
enters his fourth season.
We will be returning everyone for the 2022 season. Our
juniors from last year had to
step up and take on a leadership role that should pay off in
a big way this season, Coach
McAnulty stated.
It doesnt hurt to be returning an all-state running back
that rushed for 2,071 yards
and amassed an impressive 36
touchdowns, which is exactly
what senior Holden Barker
accomplished last year.
Quarterback Ethan Godderz
fell just short of a 1,000 yard
season on the ground, finishing with 935 yards on 133
carries and tallied 8 rushing
touchdowns.
The defense will be led by
Avery Blaufuss with 77 stops
a year ago, Ty Chambers who
recorded 49 tackles and 4 sacks
and Cody Nolan who added 51
tackles and 7 sacks.
In addition to Barker being
1st team all-league in the TRL,
he was joined by Ty Chambers
(DE), Godderz (QB) and Cody
Nolan (DE).
Other returning starters
are Trevor Church, Colby
McAdam, Karter Miller and
Ryan Golden.
Senior Stetson Setter should
also provide a huge boost to
an already solid backfield as
he returns from an injury that
caused his to miss the entire
2021 season.
Other potential contributors
that werent a factor last year
are Jack White, a senior who
played in just one game due
to injury and Malachi Trester,
who will provide another big
body on both lines.

Lancers look to build on last years success
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY Last year, 11th
year head coach (17th overall)
Abigail Hermreck knew her
team had the talent to make
some noise in league play, they
are hoping to duplicate that
success despite the loss of a
couple key seniors.
Graduating from last year's
team that finished 9-2 in league
play and 18-17 overall are
Lindsey Godderz and Anna
Hermreck, both impact players, as well as Lonna Ayers and
Vivian Noah.
Leading the way will be 1st
team all-leaguer junior Kayla
Hermreck and 2nd team allleague performer senior
McKenna Hammond.
Hermreck was also honored
as a KVA Class 1A Division
1 All-State Honorable Mention
player. She recorded 384 kills,
175 assists, 65 aces, 38 blocks
and added 196 digs last season.
Hammond recorded 195
kills, 241 assists, connected on
93% of her serves, recorded 54
aces and had 252 digs last year.
Coach Hermreck stated, I
look to these two girls to be the
core of our leadership. I am
really pleased with how well
all of the girls played together
in several tournaments over
the summer. The chemistry is
there!
The Lancer coach is also
expecting sophomores Karlee
Boots and Brooklyn Jones, who
both started last year, to take
that next step.
Hermreck said, Karlee
(Boots) is tough minded and
athletic. She will be a solid contributor for both the offense
and defense. Her toughness is
illustrated by the fact that she
competes in rodeos throughout
the season.
Brooklyn (Jones) is gaining
confidence and really played
well during summer play,
Hermreck added.
A pair of losses, not due to
graduation, that will hurt the
team is seniors Syndey Stevens
and Brinley McGhee won't be
able to play this year due to
injuries.
We will miss the net presence of Sydney (Stevens) due
to injury and the passing and
defense of Brinley (McGhee).
A couple other players
expected to make key contributions are freshman Kinley
Edgerton and junior Liliana
Blaufuss.
Blaufuss came off the bench
last season to help with passing and Edgerton continues to
work on her setting skills.
There are several other
players that I am watching to
possibly contribute to the varsity team, Coach Hermreck
mentioned. We will have a full
junior varsity team this year
which will develop talent. I
am looking forward to a great
season of fun!
Lancers cross country still small on numbers, but have some talent

Vikings cross country expectations are at an all-time high due to recent success
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND Due to head
coach Troy Prosser, the Central
Heights Vikings cross country team has raised the level
of expectations just due to sustained results over the past 8
years that he has been head of
the cross country program.
Overall the Vikings are
young this year. A pair of
returning seniors lettered last
year in Nicholas Schultze and
Lilie Johnson as well as a pair
of juniors in Alex Skeet and
Emma Cubit but there are 5
sophomores returning that
learned valuable experience as
freshmen. They are Connor
Burkdoll, Cody Hammond,
Owen Miller, Christian McCord
and Melaney Chrisjohn.
For the girls, Cubit finished
8th at state last year and on the
boys side Burkdoll finished in
14th.
Despite all the success the
Vikings have had in the recent
past, some of their biggest challenges have come within their
very own league.
One constant is how difficult the Flint Hills League has
been for many years, Prosser
said. There are currently
several schools ranked highly across a few classifications
within the league.
With so many freshman
making key contributions last
year, Coach Prosser said that
several runners are looking to
improve on their individual
successes from last year which
will ultimately make the team
more successful in team standings each meet.
A trio of runners graduated.
They include Taryn Compton,
Lily Meyer and Kaydance Bond.
Coach Prosser definitely has
built a close knit group.
The support and concern
we show for each other is one of
our greatest strengths, Prosser
said.
He added, Weaknesses
come in a variety of forms but
each one gets looked at and
addressed uniquely since every
one of our athletes have attributes that are unique to themselves.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND After backto-back 4 wins seasons, both
ending in losses to Jackson
Heights in the opening round
of postseason play, the Central
Heights Vikings are looking to
take that next step this season.
Coach Bob Risch is entering his 5th year leading the
Vikings, garnering a 13-22
record to this point. Coach
Risch does have a good amount
of returning starters, 8 on
offense and 9 on defense, but
replacing the production of the
graduating Tony Detwiler will
be key.
Detwiler finished last season with 916 yards rushing,
averaged more than 8 yards
per carried and scored 10
touchdowns on the ground and
added 2 more through the air.
As a junior Detwiler rushed for
1,039 yards, rushed for 8 touchdowns and added 12 passing
touchdowns.
Getting the first opportunity to replace Detwiler will be
junior Jose Velez. Next up on
the depth chart will be sophomore Brody Roullett.
The leading returning rusher will be Colton Caswell with
18 carries for 245 yards and 3
touchdowns. Defensively they
do have some talent returning. Carson Wood recorded 50
tackles and 8.5 sacks last year
and Aiden Welsh had 49 and 4
sacks. The secondary was led
by Baker Moore with 3 interceptions.
Youth, new coach brings
unknowns to Lady Vikings
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND The recent history hasnt exactly had much
success, but a new coach and
a youthful Central Heights volleyball squad dont care about
the past.
Over the past 4 years, the
Vikings havent recorded a single season with any more than
5 victories, so first year head
coach Marissa Horstick knows
she has her work cut out for
her.
Coach Horstick has coached
club volleyball for Topeka
Impact for 2 years, Amador
Valley High School for a year
and also for 2 years for East Bay
Volleyball Club in Pleasanton,
California.
Four returning letter winners will give the new coach
something to work with.
Senior Bailey Brockus will
be joined by a trio of soph-
omores that include Jaley

Allyssa Welch.
Bailey (Brockus) will be a
crucial part of our success this
year. She has a tough role to
fill in being the only senior but
I know through her skill and
leadership she will rise to the
occasion, her new coach said.
Syndey Evans will be the
starting setter as a sophomore,
which is a very important and
vital role for such a young player to be thrown into.
The 2022 season for us is a
season of rebuilding and proving ourselves, Coach Horstick
said. We need to better ourselves every single day and will
treat each opponent the same.
The top goal coachs first
season is she is just looking for
growth.
I just want the girls to be
better today than they were

It is our greatest
strength and our greatest weakness.
Hope is there despite
all of the challenges
facing the Vikings.
The sky is the limit

SPORTS
Young Viking runners look good early on
RICHMOND It's only a couple of weeks into the season,
but the youthful Viking boys
are really making a name for
themselves.
Sophomores
Connor
Burkdoll and Cody Hammond
are leading the way. Burkdoll
placed 1st to open the season
at the Burlington Invitational
and followed that up with a
2nd place finish at Lyndon last
week.
Hammond wasn't far behind,
finishing 3rd at Burlington and
at Lyndon as well.
We never really know what
the weather will be like for
the first few meets of the season but, more often than not,
hot and humid are the norm.
The Burlington Invitational fit
both of those conditions and we
battled through it all to come
out with a tremendous haul to
begin our competition season,
Coach Prosser stated.
Of the dozens of stellar
performances we had on the
course, there are some that rose
above the rest. Josiah Meyer,
Lily Burkdoll, Stetson Miller,
Connor Burkdoll, and Nicholas
Schultze all came away with
individual championships,
Prosser added.
With that group leading the
way, we had a pile of medals
and four team championship
plaques which included the
7th grade boys team, 8th grade
boys team, JV boys team and
Varsity boys team.
The
middle schoolers continue to
drop times year after year and
week after week and they have
continued to develop into quite
the competitive crew.
On the high school side,
Melaney Chrisjohn ran a
great race to earn a 7th place
Varsity girls medal while Cody
Hammond (3rd), Owen Miller
(6th) and Christian McCord
(8th) – along with Connors 1st
place finish – led three of the
freshmen boys to put all seven
of our varsity boys in the top 20
and take the team title with 17
points.
Although we werent at
full strength across the board,
it was still incredibly impressive to witness the effort levels
and focus they brought. The
way they support each other,
cheer each other on and put
everything they have into their
workouts and races speaks volumes about their character.
To those who have never been
to a Cross Country meet, we
would love to see you there! Its
something that cannot be replicated in any other sport and
truly must be experienced,
Prosser concluded following
the Burlington meet.
Next up for the runners was
a meet last week at Lyndon.
Chrisjohn finished 9th
for the girls and for the boys
Burkdoll was 2nd, Hammond
finished 3rd, Miller finished
14th, Dunbar finished 15th and
McCord finished in 16th.
Im very proud of the effort
displayed by our kids, Prosser
said.
Many spectators, and even
the athletes themselves, tend
to become fixated on comparing times when, in reality, the
ability to put their nose to the
grindstone and simply compete is the true litmus test for
endurance runners.
No two years are ever the
same. The same course could
be marked the same, but there
could be new unseen obstacles
that werent present before
and might not be again. Many
of our kids are experiencing
– some for the first time – and
fine tuning the mental aspect
of the sport. Many of our high
schoolers have heaped a lot of
expectations on themselves
and have rightly earned a lot of
the attention they are getting,
Prosser added.
The results are even more
impressive after factoring in
they are all still in the early
stages of their high school
career.
I often have to remind
myself how young they really are – but they are showing
some toughness and determination well beyond their years.
Melaney continues to put herself in excellent position within the top 10 of varsity races
in only her sophomore season.
Connor and Cody ran down one
of the best runners in class 2A
in the last 500 meters. Owen
and Christian have done an
excellent job creating a place
for themselves high in the
rankings, said Prosser.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, September 13, 2022
Lancer runner wins
gold at Fort Scott Invite
FORT SCOTT Freshman
Josie Walter is just two meets
into her high school career and
after a 2nd place finish in the
season opener at the 18th annual Jerry Howarter Invitational
in Garnett, Walter picked up
the first win of the season at
Fort Scott with a time of 21:26.
Teammate and fellow freshman Peyton Schmidt finished
6th in Garnett and 3rd last
week at Fort Scott with a time
of 23:01.
Aubrey Allen, yet another freshman, finished 9th in
Garnett and 7th at Fort Scott.
For the boys, Breakin Jones
finished 44th in Garnett and
finished in 23rd place at Fort
Scott.
Lady Bulldogs drop 3
of 5 to open season
GARNETT Last Tuesday,
September 6th, the Bulldogs
opened the year with a loss
to Nevada (22-25, 27-25) and a
win over Fort Scott (25-19, 25-27,
25-22).
On Saturday, The Bulldogs
traveled to Iola and dropped 2
of 3. After winning the first set
at Paola rallied to win the next
two sets to win the game (12-25,
25-22, 25-13).
Next AC downed Labette
County in 3 sets (15-25, 25-14,
25-15) then lost a tough match
to #5 Riverton 13-25 and 18-25.
We have a few things to polish up on before our first league
matches starting Tuesday
(tonight) with Prairie View and
Iola. The team is ready, Coach
Tarrie Miller stated.
Vikings pick up a pair of
Lancer volleyball competes hard despite dropping 2 of 3
wins at the start of the season
RICHMOND Winning just
two of the first 7 games isn't
anything to generally be too
excited about, but the Central
Heights Lady Vikings have
done exactly that and after the
past few seasons are starting to
build some confidence.
Osage City started the season
by sweeping Central Heights
twice at home.
The Lady Vikings picked
up their first win of the sea-
son against Osawatomie (25-22,
25-14).
The second game of the night
was a 2 set defeat to Prairie
View to drop the Vikings to 1-3
on the young season.
Last Tuesday, September
9th, Chase County split a pair of
games with the Vikings. Chase
County won the first game in 3
sets (21-25, 25-17, 20-25) before
the Vikings rallied to win the
second game (25-20, 22-25, 25-13).
Lacners begin season with a
blowout win, lose a shootout
COLONY Crest opened the
season with a 58-0 romp over
Yates Center before being
humbled in their second game
against Chase County 70-54.
In the opener, which ended
at halftime due to the mercy
rule, Ethan Godderz connected
on 5 of 7 throws for 116 yards
and 2 scores and also added
5 carries for 129 yards and 3
more touchdowns.
Holden Barker led the way
on the ground with just 8 carries for 171 yards and 3 scores.
Stetson Setter hauled in both
of Godderz's touchdown passes,
spanning 55 yards.
Barker led the defense with
14 tackles, 5 tackles for loss and
Setter recorded 9 stops of his
own.
In the shootout against
Chase County, the offense did
their job scoring 54 points but
the defense didn't have any
answers.
Godderz connected on 4 of
7 passes for 101 yards and 2
touchdowns but also had 2
interceptions as well. He was
solid on the ground again with
19 carries for 146 yards and 3
more touchdowns.
Holden Barker carried the
bulk of the load with 29 totes
for 160 yards and 3 scores.
Setter was the recipient of
all 4 of Godderz's completions,
finishing the game with 101
yards and 2 touchdowns.
Barker led the defense again,
this time with 18 stops.
IOLA In a tournament that
featured all schools that are
larger than 1A, the smallest school there more than
held their own as the Crest
Lancers battled hard in losses
to Burlington and Parsons and
knocked off Iola in 3 sets.
The Lancers lost to
Burlington 18-25 and 19-25.
We never really got our
offense going in the first match.
We only tallied 9 kills against
Burlington, which is not
going to cut it, Coach Abigail
Hermreck stated.
Hermreck was disappointed
in the all around play. We
didn't play together, stopped
talking and lost focus on the
team.
Next up was Parsons. Crest
jumped out to a 10-5 lead at one
point, but Parsons battled back
and won in 2 sets (20-25, 23-25).
Hermreck was much happier
desite the loss, The girls pulled
together and displayed the
teamwork that has helped us
compete and have success.
Hermreck commented that
the offense was much better
while the defense struggled
slightly.
In the final match against
Iola, Crest won in 3 sets (25-19,
21-25, 25-18).
The girls played composed
and relaxed. It was a great way
to end the day, Hermreck
added.
As a team, the Lancers had
26 kills and served 62/70 at 89%
with 5 aces in the match.
Hermreck concluded, We
knew going in as the only
1A school in the tournament
would be a challenge, but it was
a tremendous experience. We
finished 5th out of 8 teams and
Bulldogs dominated in opener,
rebound with win last Friday
GARNETT Wellsville manhandled the Anderson County
Bulldogs in the opener, 40-6 but
AC was able to shake off the
lopsided loss and rebounded
with a dominating 39-13 over
Osawatomie.
Wellsville took control early
and led 14-0 after the first quarter and 20-6 at halftime.
It would be all Wellsville in
the second half as they scored
7 more in the third and 13 in
the fourth, while holding the
Bulldogs scoreless to pull away
for the easy victory.
Last Friday against Oz, the
Bulldogs got on the board early
with a defensive score as Noah
Wheeler picked off a Trojan
pass and scored a touchdown
with 9:09 remaining to take a
7-0 lead.
As the first quarter was coming to a close, Crane scored
from 4 yards out to give AC a
14-0 lead.
With AC leading 20-0,
Schaffer
picked
up
a
Osawatomie fumbled and
found the endzone for a 26-0
lead, which would be the halftime score.
Crane added another score
in the third quarter to take a
32-6 lead with just 1:34 remaining in the third quarter, and
Kueser scored from 3 yards out
midway through the 4th to close
out the scoring for Anderson
County and giving them a 39-6
lead before Oz tacked on a late
meaningless touchdown.
quite possibly could have been
in the top 4. I was very proud of
the Lady Lancers!
Going 1-2 at Iola dropped
the Lancers to 8-3 overall on
the season. Next up for Crest
is a matchup tonight against
Jayhawk-Linn, Pleasanton and
Northeast Arma.
Some Lancers put up some
solid stat lines on the night.
McKenna Hammond had
16 kills, connected on 32 of 33
serves, 2 aces, a team leading
24 digs and in serve receive
passing.
Allyssa Adams connected on
27 of 33 serves, a team leading 6
aces.
Kayla Hermreck has 12
assists, 14 digs, 21 of 22 serves,
4 aces and led the team with 24
kills and 5 solo blocks.
