2B ܂ WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 17, 2018 ܂ APPEAL TRIBUNE Football Continued from Page 1B Obituaries Susan Y. May GIG HARBOR - Susan Y. May, 81, passed away peacefully, with family at her side, in Gig Harbor, Washington on October 4, 2018. She was born in Seattle, WA (her mother in labor on the ferry from Southworth) on August 21, 1937 to Basil and Jesse Yeatman. She is deeply loved and will be missed by her family and friends. Services for Susan will be announced at a later date. She graduated from Silverton Union High School in 1955 and attended the University of Oregon where she was an active member of the Alpha Chi Omega Sorority. She worked as a flight attendant for United Airlines before leaving work to become a homemaker to her two daughters, Katherine and Angela, and later, loving grand- mother to Chris and Alex. Susan is survived by her daughter Katherine May (Chuck Gnegy), grandsons Chris Davies (MeeJee Davies), Alex Davies (Laila Caspersen-Andresen), daughter Angela May (Matthew Stevens), grand- daughter Ashley Stevens, and her beloved cat, Sparky. The family suggests remembrances be made to a cause close to Susan’s heart, the Gig Harbor Senior Center (? Active Retirement & Senior Club at 8502 Skansie Ave, GH, WA 98332). Sprague before compet- ing at defensive end for the Oregon State football team, said playing multi- ple sports helped him de- velop skills for football. “Playing basketball helped me with my foot- work and hand-eye coor- dination,” said Swancutt, who was the Pac-10 co- Defensive Player of the Year in 2004 for the Bea- vers. “Being a competitor, you’re gonna have your best sport, but if you’re not as good at other sports, I think it makes you even more of a com- petitive person because you have to work harder.” Football’s not for everyone McNary football coach Jeff Auvinen thinks there’s a generation com- ponent to high school football participation. “I feel old school some- times, but I don’t know if the typical athletes are as physically and mentally tough as previous gener- ations,” Auvinen said. North Salem football coach Jeff Flood shared a similar sentiment. “Football, in particu- lar, is a sport that takes a passion,” Flood said. “You can’t just go out there and get hit by people and not have a drive to want to do that. It’s not an easy thing to do and sometimes kids shy away from things that are a little more difficult for ‘em.” And today’s high school students have more options competing for their time than past generations, with social media and video games at their fingertips. Playing football is a major commitment. “It’s no secret that it’s a tougher sport, and I think kids aren’t pushed as much to challenge themselves and do tough things,” said Sprague senior Landon Davis, a two-sport standout in football and wrestling. Davis isn’t overly con- cerned about the declin- ing numbers for football. “It almost helps us be- cause even though there are fewer kids, the kids that are here want to be here,” Davis said. Solutions Addressing safety and competitiveness are two ways schools are trying to boost participation. When players for Sa- lem-Keizer schools are suspected of having a William E. (Mac) McLagan TEMECULA, CA - 1938- 2018 William E. (Mac) Mc- Lagan passed away on Saturday, Sept. 22, 2018, after a battle with cancer. Mac was born Feb. 5, 1938, in Washington, D.C. to Hazel and Ed- ward McLagan. After an honorable discharge from the Navy in 1960, Mac began his career in the lighting industry in San Diego. Over two decades spanning the ‘70s and ‘80s Mac became an icon in the industry. As lighting manager for the Sunlite Electric and later Coast Electric, he was at the center of San Diego’s most important lighting projects. Together with his exemplary technical and business expertise, Mac was a mentor to many and his stories have become legend in the lighting industry. In 1991, he relocated to Jasper, MO, where he became a successful cattle rancher. Poor health forced him to slow down, and he retired in 2001 to Silverton, OR. He was a member of the Church of Nazarene. He later moved to Temecula, CA. He is survived by his wife of 34 years, Linda and their three children, Michelle (Steve) Lee, Denise (Andy) Carson, and Mark (Kyle Tipps) Macneal; a sister, Dale Wright; and two nephews, Gary (Elvira) Woolsey and Brent Woolsey. He was blessed with nine grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. Beyond his fascinating stories, Mac will be re- membered for his larger-than-life personality and his razor-sharp wit. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. Joni Lynn Campbell SALEM - On Thursday October 4, 2018, Joni Lynn Campbell, beloved teacher and mother, passed away at the age of 57 with her children at her side. She was born in Long- view, WA on October 12, 1960 to Roy and Darlene (Gonser) Rockwood. After graduating Castle Rock High School in 1978, she looked back on her childhood spent pretending to teach dolls and attended Eastern Oregon University to earn her degree in education. For the past 24 years, Joni dedicated her life to the mathematical education of 7th and 8th grade students in the Mt. Angel School District. She challenged her students to take math beyond the classroom and apply those principles in the annual Pentagames while also coaching the volleyball and basketball teams. At home, Joni loved gardening and creating her own outdoor oasis of roses and wisteria. She enjoyed the challenges of tackling home improve- ment projects and never passed up the chance to explore antique shops for vintage treasures to decorate her home. Above all, she loved her family and she will be missed dearly. She is survived by her two brothers, Steven and David (Charlotte) Rockwood; two children, Sarah (Zachary) Zink and Cristopher Campbell; grand- daughter Avery, and numerous cousins, nieces, and nephews. A memorial service celebrating her life will be held at City View Funeral Home, 390 Hoyt St. S. Salem, at 10AM on Saturday, October 13th. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the Joni L. Campbell Mt. Angel Scholarship Fund or to the American Cancer Society. CIRCUIT COURT OF OREGON COUNTY OF POLK TREVOR S. ELLIOTT AND JACQUELINE A. ELLIOTT, Plaintiff. v.

LEGAL/PUBLIC NOTICE DEADLINES All Legals Deadline @ 1:00 p.m. on all days listed below: ***All Deadlines are subject to change when there is a Holiday. The Silverton Appeal Tribune is a one day a week (Wednesday) only publication • Wednesday publication deadlines the Wednesday prior LEGAL/PUBLIC NOTICE RATES Silverton Appeal Tribune: • Wednesdays only - $12.15/per inch/per time • Online Fee - $21.00 per time • Affidavit Fee - $10.00 per Affidavit requested concussion, they must follow a six-step policy before being allowed to play again, with a mini- mum of 24 hours be- tween steps. First, the student-ath- lete cannot take part in any activity until he or she “is self-reported to be symptom-free,” “has re- turned to school full time,” and “returned to a normal (Immediate Post- Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing) score.” After the athlete is cleared to take part in ac- tivities, he or she will only do non-contact light ex- ercising before engaging in sport-specific activ- ities without equipment. Once cleared, the athlete can participate in non- contact training with full equipment, followed by full-contact practice, and then returning to play. “We are significantly more conservative now,” said Amy West, who has been an athletic trainer at Sprague since 1996. “We know tremendously more now, and the more we know, the better we do. By today’s standards, we did not do a good job of taking care of concus- sions.” West said it’s difficult to know if there are more head injuries now com- pared to the mid-1990s because the definition of a concussion has changed. “For instance, loss of consciousness has noth- ing to do with whether or not a person has a con- cussion now,” West said. “And that was one of the big driving forces 20 years ago.” Tackling In addressing concus- sion concerns, one of the biggest changes for coaches is how they teach tackling. Today, many coaches have gone away from the old ways of tackling where the defender’s head was exposed during the collision with the ball carrier. Now, there’s a new style. “All it is, is rugby tack- ling. And if you watch rugby teams, they’re some of the best tack- lers,” Sprague football coach Minyard said. “Keeping the head out of the game, focusing on the back hip, not putting the head across the body like we were taught. “And now that we’re all starting to tackle like that, I feel like kids are more comfortable tack- ling,” he said. While some resist the idea that football needed some changes to improve safety, West Salem foot- ball coach Shawn Stanley said it was a necessary step. “Some of the stuff that has come out of the con- cussion awareness is good for the game, it’s good for kids,” Stanley said. “For a while, there were some guys, the old- school guys, who were digging in their heels, saying, ‘You can’t change football, it is what it is.’ Those guys are just igno- rant. We should change if there’s a way to make it safer.” No matter how many rule changes are made, there always will be risks involved in football, as well as other sports and activities. McNary athletic direc- tor Scott Gragg, who played 11 seasons in the NFL with the New York Giants, San Francisco 49ers and New York Jets, said it’s important to re- member there are bene- fits to playing football that go along with the risks. “What I tell parents is that you have to weigh those inherent risks with the added benefits for the student-athlete,” Gragg said. “Participating in something that requires them to be accountable, requires them to set goals, requires them to work well with others — things that are so impor- tant.” During his NFL career, which spanned from 1995 to 2005, Gragg started all 16 games in a season eight times. In all, he played in 172 games, including 149 starts. “I pride myself in being able to play 112 consecu- tive starts in the NFL, and I walked away from the game with virtually no in- juries and no disabilities,” said Gragg, who played high school football at Silverton and college football at Montana. “I’m able to jog three days a week and feel very fortunate,’ he said. “I suf- fered one concussion in college, no concussions in the pros.” Reclassification To address the drop in football participation, the OSAA put in place a new rule this school year, al- lowing schools to play down a classification if they met certain criteria. To play down, a team must have a winning per- centage of 22 percent or lower over the past four years, or a 22 percent winning percentage or lower over the past two years, or played 12 or few- er in-classification games during the past four years. “The No. 1 issue is the number of kids that are not playing football today that played 10, 15, 20, 25 years ago, and that’s across the nation,” said Hedrick, who was on the OSAA’s Football Ad Hoc Committee that made the recommendation. “The goal is to get them to a position to compete, and then when you com- pete and have some suc- cess, then more kids come out.” McKay is the only Mid- Valley team that opted for the reclassification. The Royal Scots are playing at the Class 5A level in football, but 6A in all other sports. Five oth- er 6A schools across the state —- Wilson, Benson, Cleveland, Forest Grove and South Eugene — also are competing in 5A foot- ball. A member of the Mid- Willamette Conference for football, McKay has an enrollment of 2,476, about 600 more students than any other school in the conference. But a majority of the potential football players arrive at McKay with lim- ited experience. Only three players on this year’s team played on the varsity in 2017. That trend figures to change in the coming years due to increased participation at the youth levels. “This year we’ve added two teams at every level,” third-year McKay football coach Josh Riddell said With increasing youth-level participation, which could translate to more experienced players entering high school, Rid- dell envisions a brighter future for McKay football. “I wanna win. I’m com- petitive,” said Riddell, who has a 3-18 overall rec- ord at McKay. “But for me, it’s are we bettering these kids? Are you giving them a good experience to learn how to become men because that’s really what football’s about?” And it’s those life les- sons that football teach- es, like the importance of teamwork, sportsman- ship, dedication and per- severance, that could sustain the sport even as participation declines. “I love the game of football. It taught me so much about life,” Gragg said. “The sport has given me so much. I would hate to see it die on the vine and become extinct.” ghorowitz@States- manJournal.com or Twitter.com/ghorowitz or 503.399.6726 pmartini@States- manJournal.com or Twitter.com/pmartini or 503.399.6730
