Itwasamoment that
seemed faroff in thedis-
tanceearlier this summer,
whenbids for the construc-
tionof thenewWestLinn
police station came inwell
overbudget.
YetonMonday the long-awaited
constructionprojectfinallybegan,as
the cityheldanof-
ficialground-
breaking ceremo-
nyat the site,on
the cornerof
EighthAvenue
and 13thStreet.
Theeventmarked thebeginningofa
10-monthproject ledbyToddCon-
struction,which saw its $5.25million
bidacceptedby theWestLinnCity
CouncilonAug. 19.
Justafterofficiallybreaking
groundwith the swipeofa shovel
alongsidehis fellow city councilors,
MayorJohnKovash took the time to
reflect.
“It’sbeena longprocess,”Kovash
said. “We’vebeenat this foranum-
berofyears,and it’sverygratifying
to see thebondspassed, the contract
is letandwe’re inagoodposition to
haveapolice station thatwillmatch
the capabilitiesof thispolicedepart-
ment.”
AfterMonday’spompand circum-
stance,ToddConstructionbeganoffi-
cial constructionworkonTuesday.
Theproject is slated for completion
inabout 10months.
“Tofinally see theequipmenthere
and talk to the foremanand the con-
tractor, tohearwhat they’regoing to
do,and they’regoing tobepushing
dirt tomorrow, it’sveryexciting,”Po-
liceChiefTerryTimeus said. “A lotof
peopleworkeda lotofhourson this,
and if itwasn’t foreveryoneof those
people, thiswouldn’thavehap-
pened.”
Theproject is the resultofan $8.5
milliongeneralobligationbondmea-
sureapprovedbyvoters inNovember
2011.TheWestLinnPlanningCom-
missionapproved thenecessary con-
ditionalusepermits for theproject
during itsmeetingonFeb. 20.
The currentpolice stationwas
built in 1936,and,according toTime-
us, it isno longerequipped to serve
thedepartmentadequately.
Theprojectfirstopened forbid-
dingJune 5andattractedfivebids
ranging from $5.9million to $6.5mil-
lion.
The city,however,hadonlybudget-
ed foramaximumof $5million in
construction costs,
and in response, the
city councilvoted
June 17 to rejectall
bidsand rebid the
contract—aprocess
thatdelayed theproj-
ectbyabout two
months.
ThoughToddCon-
struction’sofficialbid
of $5,383,898wasalso
abovebudget, the city
councildetermined
that—with some
changes suggestedby
BobGalante, theproj-
ectmanager,andal-
readyapprovedby

thefinal contract
couldbewhittled
down toanaccept-
able $5.25million.

A
ftersevenmonths inofficeas
chairmanof theClackamas

identifiedseveral issues for
ClackamasCountyand theregion.
Duringmycampaign for thisoffice I
wasastaunchadvocate for lettingcounty
votersweigh inonmultimilliondollarex-

the jurisdictions thatservice them. In the
pastseveralyears, thanks toacitizenref-

mybeliefswereconfirmed thatvoters

ClackamasCountyCommissioners,
andothers, learned important lessons
from thesevotes,but therearestillmore

Thismeasureamends thecharter tofillmayor,citycouncil

Thoughsomeresidentshave taken issuewith thismeasure,
webelieve itrightsorderandprocess.Thischarteramend-

Her blonde hair falls in waves, just barely grazing her
tanned shoulders.Shewearsglasses, sometimes, andherun-
lined face is rarely without a small, comforting smile. She
looks like she could be a surfer, orpossibly a librarian.
What sets her apart from the scores of other blonde, tan
and happy 30-somethings from California is a poem tat-
tooed onher right forearm:
“i am scared
of being scared…
and so,
I amnot
even if i am.”
She was 27 years old, living inHollywood and recently
dumped when shemet AnthonyGlass, a handsome video
editorwhoworked atheroffice.Theywere instantly attract-
ed to each other, exchanging poetic and increasingly flirta-
tious emails and quickly falling in love. Just a fewmonths
after they starteddating, their love story, a storyofwhat she

SB 721would require
youth sports coaches and
officials todetect and
respond to concussions,
which couldmake them
legally liable to civil suits
Jason Chaney
CentralOregonian
As more and more reports of
health complications due to head
injuries surface, people have
ratcheted up efforts to protect ath-
leteswho suffer concussions.
The Oregon Senate is trying to
further that effort and recently
passed a bill with overwhelming
support that would require youth
sports leagues to recognize and
respond to possible concussions.
However, some worry that the
law could leave youth sports
coaches and other officials open to
potentially expensive lawsuits, and
deter them from continuing the
sport.
Oregon Senator DougWhitsett
(R-Dist. 28) was one of just two
lawmakers who opposed the bill
amid civil liability concerns.
“I think that concussions are a
real concern,” he said. “My
concern, the way that bill is
written, is there are no violations
or any criminal act (citations) for
not following the rules of the new
law.The civil liability tomewould
just be wide open . . . The bill is

spreadcontentionacross social
media.
A local bovine appeared to have
takena tripMondaynight, inspiringa
flurryofTwitteractivitybetweenLak-
eridge andWestLinnhigh schools as
toherwhereabouts.
OrianRaviv tweeted, “My twitter is
full of the government shuttingdown
and howWest Linn stole our cow...
#pleasetellmemore.”
Thefiberglass cow—painted invi-
brant colorsand sportinga rendering
ofan ice cream coneonhermuzzle—
normally stands guard by the Lak-
eridgeauditorium.
When she seemingly disappeared,
rumors abounded, some sayingWest
Linn High students had absconded
withher.Notso.
Annie Roethe
tweeted,“Kindaflat-
tered thatLakeridge

Lakeridge art
teacher Shannon
McBride said she
borrowed thecowat
8 p.m.Monday and
returned her on
Tuesdaymorning.
“The cow was
never atWest Linn
High School,” said
McBride,who is al-
so aWestLinn resi-
dent. “Borrowing
thecowhadnothing
to do with West
LinnHighSchool.”
She did not specifywhy she bor-
rowed the cow.However, otherTwit-
ter users alleged to a Young Life
challenge for the reason behind the
cowmystery.
“Um give us our cow back please,”
Lakeridge student Camille Feinstein
tweeted.
WLHS studentAnnie Roethe also
weighed in on Twitter: “Kinda flat-
tered thatLakeridge thoughtwest linn

Therewere also puns, and threats
ofpayback.
Quinn Milionis tweeted, “Pretty

Ann Monroe Tweeted, “You can
cownt on usWest Linn too get even.
#atleastitried.”
However,LakeridgeAssistantPrinci-
palRollinDickinson said the cowwas
justhavinganadventure.
“In cow years, she’s a teenager,”
Dickinson said. “The rebellious years

Thedecorated ruminant standsasa
reminder of a 2010 success.That year
formerLakeridge studentAnneFeeny
was a finalist in Lucerne’sTheArt of

PriyankaBasak lists her fa-
vorite high

you like them
all.”

giving them the opportunity
to earn scholarships,” she
said.

F
iveLakeOswego ladieswho
call themselves theRosiesare
a lot tougher than they look.
They look likefive ladies
whomeet forbridge,knittingoreven
a littlepoetry reading. Instead, their
pastime requiresmuscle,endurance
andperseverance,because theyare
rowingat the
highest level
ofcompeti-
tion in the
world.They
just returned
fromUllapool,Scotland,where they
competed in thefirstSt.AylesSkiff
Championship.And theycompeted
well,even taking thebronzemedal in
one race.Theywerealso theonly
teammadeupentirelyofwomen to
build theirownskiffand travelall the
way toScotland.

storiesabout theirexcellentadven-
ture.
“Inever thought Iwouldgo toScot-
land,”saidWerner.
“Inever thoughtwewouldbring
home thebronzemedal,”Papailiou
said.
Somehow thingsworked remark-
ablywell forfivewomenwhohadnev-
er racedboatsbefore.
TheRosies’sagastarted in2011
when theygotwindof thenews that
Scotland,wherecoastal rowinghad
been revived,wasgoing tobeholding
aworldSt.Ayleschampionship in
2013.TheWind&OarBoatSchoolof
Portland thought thiswasafine idea,
andso itbegan to recruit10women to
participatebybuilding theirownboat
over thenext twoyears,with theulti-
mateobjectiveof racing inScotland.
“We thought, ‘Wow, let’sdo it!”
Lanesaid.“We recruited friendsand
friendsof friendsandgotaneatcross-
generational turnout.Women from
theagesof23 to61 turnedoutwho
thoughtgoing toScotlandwasagang-
buster idea.We thought, ‘Let’sgo to
Scotland!’Aswebuiltourboat the
name ‘Rosies’evolved.”
BySept.10,2011, theyhadfinished
thefirstSt.Aylesskiff tobeentirely
builtbywomen.Ofcourse, theycalled
itTheRosie,and theycelebratedby
launching iton theWillametteRiver.
Still,going toScotland to row ina
rowboatchampionshipwasa rather
wild idea,and itwasnotconfirmed
untilFebruaryof thisyear.Some
changeshad takenplacesince the
boathadbeenbuilt.Manyof theRos-
ieshad todropoutbecauseofvarious
commitments.But fourof them,all
fromLakeOswego,managed tohang
on for the full ride,and theywere
joinedbyanotherLakeOswego lady,
Elliott,whoqualified for the teambe-
causeshehadhelpedbuildanother
boat.Now therewasonlyonemore
thing todo:worry.
“Wehadnever racedbefore,”Lane
said.
“Wehadno ideawhatwewereup
against,”saidWerner.

“Rowing iseasy to learn,”Papailiou
said.“We justhad tokeeppracticing.
We trainedhardenough thatwe
couldhandle theconditionswe faced.”
“Itdidn’t take long forus toget fair-
lygoodat it,”Lanesaid.“Weweren’t
perfect,butwewereOK.”
ThenJuly rolledaround.TheRos-
ieshad to leavebehind theirbeautiful
boat theyhadbuiltbecause it isadif-
ficult thing tomovea rowboat from
Oregon toScotland.Fortunately, the
womenwereadoptedby theSouth
QueensferryRowingClub inScot-
land,whichwashappy to loan thema

Thisproved tobeagreatway to

Perhaps themost stunning
thingaboutWestLinn’shis-
toric 7-3victoryoverLake
OswegoonFriday,breaking
theLakers’ 48-gameThree
RiversLeaguewinning
streak,was thatbygame’s
end the resultdidn’tappear
stunningatall.
Inmost instances, amonu-
mental upset involves the un-
derdogplaying the game of its
life and needing a little bit of
luck in theprocess.
That simplywasn’t the case
Friday. In fact, theLionsdomi-
nated the game, racking up
nearly three timesasmuchof-
fenseas theLakers, controlled
the line of scrimmage on both
sides of the ball and, frankly,
didn’tgetmanybreakseither.
West Linn had three turn-
overs, including a potential
back-breakernearLakeOswe-
go’sgoal line toward theendof
thefirsthalf.
But even after controlling
the vastmajority of the game,
there was always a lingering
suspicion that the longtime
kings of theTRLwould find a
way toemergevictorious.
Itwasn’t to be and, in some
ways, itwas fitting that itwas
West Linn that finally did the
honors in shattering the
streak.
In Lake Oswego’s 48-game
dominance,West Linn came
the closest to ending the
streak, losing a similar game
7-6 with a failed extra point
providing the onlymargin of
difference.
The difference this time
aroundwasWestLinnstaunch
defense, which yielded just
three first downs in the first
half, which was before the
heavy rain andwindmoved in
and gave up just one big play
allnight.
“We had some momentum
going after the Barlow game
and that gave us some confi-
dence,” receiver Kurt Moon
said.
Thefirsthalfwasabattle for
field position. The Lions
openedwith a steady dose of
the run and an 18-yard pass
from Hayden Coppedge to
Moon,eventuallydriving to the
35-yard line before getting
stuffedon fourth-and-one.
The teams tradedstopsuntil
midway through the second
quarter.Afteran illegal forma-
tionpenaltynegatedabig run,
Coppege threwapass thatwas
juggled andpicked off byLake
Oswego’sNickUnderwood.
Underwoodran theballback
to the end zone but his return
was called back on a penalty.
Still,LakeOswegohad theball
onWestLinn’s33-yard lineand
quickly moved into the red
zone.
However, a bad snap and an
intentional grounding penalty
knocked theLakersoutofscor-
ingrangeand theywere forced
topunt.
“Ourdefensewas reallyspe-
cial tonight. Itwasaphenome-
nal effort,” coachMikeFanger
said.
West Linn then drove the
length of the field, getting re-
ceptions fromMoon andLouie
Germain to reach the 2-yard
line.
On the next play, the Lions
would fumble, giving the ball
back to the Lakers without
much time left in thefirsthalf.
Lake Oswego opened the
thirdquarterwith theballand
got a 43-yard catch from Jor-
danHorakdown to the 12-yard
line.
However, West Linn’s de-
fense held and forced a short
fieldgoal.
The Lions got a big third
down reception from Cam
Schmitzon itsfirstdriveof the
thirdquarterbutwasultimate-
ly facedwith another fourth-
and-one opportunity at mid-
field.
West Linn got the ball to its
workhorse inGermain and he
found an opening up themid-
dleand thenoutran theLakers’
secondary fora 50-yard score.
“Itwas all about our block-
ing tonight. There was a gap
and I just took off,” Germain
said.
The Lions had another nice
drive in the thirdquarter,mix-
ing up the run and a short
passing game despite the del-
uge before a holding penalty
thwarted another attempt to
score.
“We’realways looking torun
firstand,with theweather, that
wasobviously theplan.Ourof-
fensive linedidagreat job,and
Iwas impressedwith how ef-
fectivewewerewhenwe had
to throw it,”Fanger said.
While LakeOswegowas 10-
29 passing for 106 yards,
Coppedge went 20-28 for 153
yards.
Despite clinging to a four-
point lead,LakeOswegodidn’t

Youcan’tdomuchbetter
thana 5-0 start in leagueand
that’swhere theWestLinn
boys soccer team standsat
themidpointof the league
schedule.Witha 1-0victory
overClackamasonTuesday,
theLions lockedupanun-
blemished slate through the
firstfivegames.
WestLinnholdsa four-point
lead over second-place Lake
Oswego and is rankedNo. 6 in
the stateby theOSAA.
And yet coach Greg Bean
still doesn’t feel like his team
has pieced together a truly
completegameyet.
“We’re still searching for a
full 80minutes, but I think the
success we’re having breeds
more success,”Bean said.
West Linn is coming off a
pair of tough 1-0victories over
Lakeridge andClackamas and
has been keyed in recent con-
testby itsdefense.
The defensive effort begins
withgoalieZachNelsonwho is
starting tomakeahabitofcom-
ing up with at least one tre-
mendous savepergame.
“He’sbeen thedifferencebe-
tween us getting a 1-0win or
gettinga tie,”Bean said.
TheLakeridgegameSept.26
was one of themore eventful
contests theLionshaveplayed
in all season. Both teams had
opportunities andwere adept
atgettingupanddown thefield
quickly.
“It really could have gone
anyway. If youwerewatching
it, it couldhave been a tie or a
Lakeridge orWest Linn win
and any of those would have
sounded right, butwe’re find-
ingways to grind out games,”
Bean said.
The Lions jumped out to a
lead justpast themidwaypoint
of the first half. Lucas Evans
made anice run andwas fed a
ball from Ryan Barber. Evans
then laid a pass to Jackson
Brooke, who deposited the
shot.

Back inDecember,before
theWestLinnboysbasket-
ball teamhadevenplayeda
game,coachEricViuhkola
gatheredhis teamandhad
each individual talkabout
whathisgoalswere for the
upcoming season.
Players talked about want-
ing to challenge LakeOswego
for the league titleagainand to
get back to the Rose Garden.
That’swhen junior post Ryan
Shearmire stepped in.
“He stopped everyone and
said, theonlygoal is towin the
state title.That’sbeen thegoal
thewhole time,”Viuhkolasaid.
Itwas a lofty goal tobe sure
and one thatwas certainly on
theLions’ radar,having one of
the most innately talented
young teams in the state. But
surely not this year. A third
straight RoseGarden appear-
ance and perhaps another trip
to the semifinals would be a
terrific showing for the rejuve-
natedprogram.
But towin the 2013 title,you
we-
ho
ere
sed
of
who looked like a
bulldozer and every bitworth
thehype inpreseasonplay.
And if some calamity befell
theLakersduring theyear?Se-
nior heavy teams like Jesuit,
GrantorCentralCatholicwere
ready to swoop in.
Next year.Next year the Li-
ons could up the stakes in the
preseason and gun for the
school’s secondeverboys state
basketball championship.
Well next year came early
forWestLinn.
In a tournamentmarked by
physical, bruising defensive
play, theLionsused theirnew-
found toughness, unwavering
confidenceand, frankly,abitof
luck, to pull off a stunning
three-game run, toppling
Grant, LakeOswego andCen-
tralCatholic, three teamswith
earlier wins overWest Linn
thisyear, tocapture the trophy.
It was an incredible three
days for the Lions and for the
West Linn community as the
teamwon threegames against
theNos. 1, 3and 4 teams in the
statebya combined sixpoints.
Now the banner of the 1997
championship teamwill have
some company.
“I look at that banner in
practice every day and I just
knewwewanted to get one of
our own,” Shearmire saidmo-
ments after cutting down his
portion of thenet on Saturday
night.
West Linn’s tournament
started onWednesday after-
noon with a difficult test
againstNo. 4Grant.TheGen-
erals had beaten the Lions in
the first game of the season,
jumpingout toahugefirst-half
lead whichWest Linn never
fully recovered from.
Butboth teamshad changed
considerablysince thatcontest
and thegamefigured tobeone
of themost entertaining of the
day.
TheLions showed some ear-
ly jitters,missingon their long-
rangeattemptswhilebeingun-
able to get a break on some
good looks in the paint. Both
teams played strong interior
defense and the Lions more
than held their own on the
boards, something that had
concerned Viuhkola heading
into the contest.
However, a pair of sloppy
turnovers late in thefirstquar-
ter led tofivequickpoints from
theGenerals tofinish off a 7-0
run,givingGranta 15-8 lead.
West Linn continued to
struggle from thefield early in
the second quarter, evenmiss-
ing an open lay-up but the Li-
ons stayedwithin striking dis-
tancewith strong defense, in-
cluding apair ofkey blocks by
ShearmireandJarrodHoward.

Believe it!
West Linn beats three of the top-five teams in the state, includ-
ing undefeated LakeOswego, by a combined six points towin its
