Red Oak No Score
This was a excellent win for us on an away course. There are some very good teams in the tournament. Normally 4 to 5 teams from this tournament make it to state. Hopefully we can continue this through our final tournaments. Ben Nelson and Matt Thielen played some great rounds. Ben was one under on the first nine. Matt Thielen had 6 to 7 pars in a row. Nice to see Sam Markham and Evan Schuler played well. Sam Renaud had a good score. Travis struggled but I know he will get it in the next round.

Great day of tennis for Atlantic girls — each girl went 2-1 on the day, and to finish solo 3rd in this tournament, with all girls medaling is a tremendous accomplishment for the team. I was most proud of how they competed — it’s probably as tough mentally as we’ve been all season, up and down the lineup. Liz and Shelby had things going their way in their first round match over a tough Valley team, but lost their feel a bit in the 2nd set and couldn’t get it going again in that match; it was nice to see them bounce back and dominate their final 2 matches to finish a respectable 5th — they were probably the 3rd or 4th best team in their draw, but that’s the way the draw fell. Carli at #1 received a favorable draw, avoiding King and Pierson’s side of the bracket; having said that, she still had to beat two very capable players, and was largely in control of both matches before running into a tremendous opponent in the final; Carli was outstanding all day, and even in that match played very well. Sarah was probably the biggest surprise of the day, getting her first win over a Red Oak opponent in several tries, controlling her match and her nerves and winning handily in Rd. 1. She then played very well against Peterson from Valley, rallying to force a 2nd set tiebreak before falling; she bounced back nicely and won easily her 3rd place match — Sarah’s best tournament performance in her career. Finally Morgan and Tierney — they beat a pair of seniors from Ottumwa who went on to win their next two matches, before falling to a tough Ames duo in the semis. They played extremely well against Baker and Brunner in the 3rd place match, serving big and controlling the net to win easily. I was very proud of all of the girls — hopefully they can ride the momentum they gained against a very difficult Denison at home on Monday.

COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) – A woman who was stopped on suspicion of shoplifting makeup items at a grocery store in Council Bluffs was in a hurry, so she asked the officer for a citation.
The Daily Nonpareil says the officer asked the woman last week: What’s the rush? The woman said she didn’t want to be late to court. Court? For what? Her reply: Theft.
The officer then arrested the woman on another theft charge.
Authorities in Montgomery County say a Mills County woman suffered possible, unknown injuries during a rollover accident Sunday night. Sheriff’s officials say 43-year old Rebecca Ann Cates, of Emerson, was found at around 8:45-p.m., a short distance away from the crash site, near 200th Street and “A” Avenue.
Cates was driving a 1996 Geo Metro westbound on 200th Street, when the car crossed the center line of the road as it was rounding a curve. Cates overcorrected, sending the vehicle into the north ditch, where it rolled for an undetermined number of times before coming to rest on its top in a field.
Cates was transported to the Montgomery County Memorial Hospital in Red Oak, by Red Oak Rescue. Officials say the car was a total loss.
The accident remains under investigation, and charges are pending.
BOUTON, Iowa (AP) – An ethanol plant in Menlo won’t agree to raise the contracted rate it pays for water from a financially
troubled rural district. According to The Des Moines Register, Xenia Rural Water District officials say Flint Hills Resources refuses to amend its 20-year contract to allow a 60 percent rate increase.
Xenia’s other, mostly residential customers likely face another rate hike. The average residential bill is about $90 a month, up from $55 last year. Another rate increase could raise that to more than $100 a month.
Xenia’s aggressive expansion plans never materialized, leaving it with crushing debt. It serves portions of 12 west-central Iowa counties.
Authorities in Harrison County say flames from an unattended brush fire whipped by winds of up to 35-miles per hours, destroyed a machine shop Sunday afternoon, in Missouri Valley. More than 30 volunteer firefighters from five towns responded to the blaze, which was reported shortly after 2 p.m. No one was injured, but the damage amounted to an estimated $38,000.
Missouri Valley Fire Chief Eugene Shaeffer says the shop’s owner had been burning brush in a pit on the property Sunday morning, and the fire was left unattended. The flames eventually spread to the nearby, one-story, wooden-structure shop.
Shaeffer said there was little Firefighters could do except spray water on adjacent houses to keep them from catching on fire as well.
