WP- Molly Bryan LP- Marissa Berns

Atlantic Highlights…
1st- With two outs Taira Edelman doubled and scored by a double by Paige
Kennon.

6th- ReAnn Cappel led off with a single and stole second base.  She moved
to second on an error hit by Bre VonWehye.  VonWehye stole second.  Cappel
scored on a sac fly by Taira Edelman and VonWehye moved to third.
VonWehye scored when the Glenwood catcher threw the ball back over the
pitchers head (SB?)

Comments by Coach Hinzmann…
“We knew we were going to see a good pitcher and team that would not beat
themselves.  Glenwood will be one of the teams at the top of the
conference so overall I thought we did a pretty good job matching them in
hits and having a chance to win the game late.  Marissa did a great job
against a solid hitting team.  She was spotting her fastball well and was
able to mix in her other pitches too.  There were chance for Glenwood to
bust out big innings in the second and fourth, but our pitching and
defense did not allow that to happen.”

GAME TWO:  GLENWOOD 5 ATLANTIC 1

1 2 3 4 5 6 7  R  H  E

WP- Molly Bryan LP- Katie Groves

Atlantic Highlights…
6th-Leah Tjepke led off the inning with a home run.

Comments by Coach Hinzmann…
“We just never really mounted much of a threat in game two.  Molly (Bryan)
did an outstanding job against our hitters.  We only reached second base
twice, Taira stole second and Leah hit the home run.  Katie did a good job
of pitching her way out tough spots, stopping Glenwood from breaking the
game open early and holding them to only two, two run innings which could
have blown up into a much worse situation.”

Iowa warns of price gouging during flooding

News

June 3rd, 2011 by Ric Hanson

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – Iowa’s top prosecutor says the state’s price gouging rule is now in effect for six counties facing flooding from the Missouri River.

Attorney General Tom Miller says Gov. Branstad’s disaster emergency declaration on Thursday trigged the rule in Fremont, Harrison, Mills, Monona, Pottawattamie and Woodbury counties.

Price gouging is considered an unfair practice under the Iowa Consumer Fraud Act. It protects people from those who substantially raise prices for needed goods or services without justification. The rule was adopted following the floods of 1993.

It applies during the emergency declaration and a recovery period of up six months.

Branstad comments on Missouri River flooding

News

June 3rd, 2011 by Ric Hanson

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – Gov. Terry Branstad says all Iowa counties along the Missouri River will be affected by rising water and residents need to get ready because the worst of the flooding is still upriver.

Branstad at a news conference in Sioux City on Thursday says the state is ready to help, including the possibility of calling out the Iowa National Guard. He says there is a concern about Sioux City’s water treatment plant, which the near the river. But Branstad says he’s confident it will be OK.

Des Moines lost its water treatment plant in the 1993 flood, cutting off water for 12 days.

Branstad has issued emergency disaster proclamations for six counties – Fremont, Harrison, Mills, Monona, Pottawattamie and Woodbury. It allows state resources to be used for flood efforts.
