Page A-8 Illinois Valley News, Cave Junction, Ore. Wednesday, September 21, 2022 New Valley arts school gets district approval CJ Schatza IVN copy editor The Kalmiopsis Community Arts High School’s charter was ap- proved by the Three Rivers School District Board of Directors at its Sept. 14 meeting. KCA has been in the works for years, the brainchild of Val- ley educators: Kaci Elder, Kimiko Maglio, Melissa DeNardo and Ryan Forsythe, with previous support from Sara Kinstler and Gina Lo Preste. “I’m reminded of our begin- nings, a group of parents and teach- ers sitting around a picnic table at the Dome School in 2014,” Forsythe Hello from the Illinois Valley Country Club golf course. Men’s Club will be playing for final standings this week, leaders today, top ten only, next week, full field placings: Taylor’s Sausage1 Taylor’s Sausage2/Valley Fabrication Jerry’s Towing FLS Bud Bros KALA Seafood Robbins Brothers John L Scott Realty Kerby Electric Selma Second Hand Wednesday night skins had a nice group of about 11 guys. David chipped in for birdie on 15 for one skin. Jim Losey and Todd won skins as well. Poke, David and Todd all won KPs and Colby won the poker hand with six cards total and two pairs-sixes and tens. Thursday night ladies scored a respectable 42 and pulled the glow balls out to expressed in a statement responding to the charter’s approval. “It’s been a lot of hard work to reach this point, and I’m excited to see where this goes from here!” The four co-founders all plan to play a role in KCA’s operations once its doors open, and will refer to themselves as “Teacher Leaders.” “With the flurry of emotions that have developed from the deci- sion of pproval, I think immense gratitude is what is most present for me,” remarked DeNardo. “This is not only an accomplishment for our team but for our incredible commu- nity.” Elder added, “I can’t wait to meet the teens! We’re looking forward to finding KCA kids -- the finish the last two holes as they lost about 10 balls on #7 in the increasing darkness. I have been trying to convince them to start at 4:30 but they seem to like the glow balls. Friday night skins had just a few guys show up at 4:45 and finish before dark. Todd and Zion took skins of about $20 each. The guys all traveled to Applegate Golf Course for the first leg of the HOME AND HOME TOURNAMENT, fearing the new pros who have just become members over there. They should not have feared them as our guys shot lights-out! Todd and Tyler took first with a net 61. As many of our members are very busy this time of year and could not travel, Scott Kern’s score was used on three teams and he shot very well with a 62 net for both teams, one with Mike Milner and one with Don Peterson. Scott’s score was also used for the fourth place public, private, and homeschooled youth who’d like to try something new.” Maglio agreed, stating, “It is very exciting to be in this phase of opening KCA where we can work hand in hand with more people in our community to bring this high school into fruition!” Earlier in the meeting, Zone II Board Member Susan Fischer- Maki spotlighted the district’s recent third Soul for Soles event during the board’s Say Something Positive segment. “Families from the community are able to come and get a new pair of shoes for their children,” Fischer- Maki said. “It was wonderful. The thing that really struck me was what team with a 64. The best score for the Applegate guys was a tie for fifth place with Chris Olson and Zion Pittman against lives-in-the-Illinois Valley-but-plays-mostly-at- Applegate-Dan Day with a 65. Other guys who went over there included: Chaise and D’Lynn; Troy and Jim Losey; Eugene and Byrne and Roland and Ryan. Dave Muswieck and Nathan Englehorn (both ex-pros) playing for Applegate did manage to take two of the possible three points from Chaise and D’Lynn. Total tally was Applegate with eight points and I.V. with a whopping 19. This coming Saturday we will be hosting Applegate for the second part of the Home and Home. We encourage spectators so come on down and join in for some good-natured hazing, sipping some nice wines in the autumn weather and some good food from Gimmee’s menu or we will be serving up a steak dinner for $15. Coming events: Monday—last night of twilight league. Wednesday- -$5 skins; Thursday-Ladies’ night; Friday-$5 skins; Saturday-Home and Home and Sunday evening (if everyone isn’t too tired from the week)-$5 skins. FREEDOM. TO BE YOU.

MKT-P0240 was happening for the parents; just the joy and bit of extra confidence knowing their children would be go- ing to school tomorrow with a new pair of shoes.” Zone V Board Chair Jennifer Johnstun echoed Fischer-Maki’s praise: “I am very impressed with the Soles event… They’re not shoes that came from a discount bargain store; they are really nice shoes. And the kids I saw getting them too were very excited about the shoes they were getting and I think they’ll be proud to wear them.” Zone IV Board Member Jamie Wright used her time to give a shout-out to Josephine County Sheriff’s Office and Oregon State Police for doing their part to make schools safer, remarking that she’d seen them posted outside schools to enforce speed limits. TRSD Superintendent Dave Valenzuela discussed the district’s back to school event during his re- port to the board. He recounted that over 650 individuals attended. “When it was over, everyone was super thankful and kind of blown away at being together in that space… It has reverberated into the school year.” The superintendent added, “The feeling is unbelievable. I’ve never had a better start as a principal, director or superintendent. People are stoked to be back at school.” Nix puts up 5 TDs, No. 25 Oregon takes down No. 12 BYU 41-20 Anne M. Peterson AP Sports Writer EUGENE, ore. (AP) — Bo Nix likened himself to a point guard for Oregon. He certainly scored like one. Nix threw for two touchdowns and ran for three more to lead No. 25 Oregon to a 41-20 victory over No. 12 BYU on Saturday. The victory extended Oregon’s winning streak at Autzen Stadium to 21 games, the third-longest in the nation. Nix, a transfer from Auburn, completed 13 of 18 passes for 222 yards and ran for 35 yards on nine carries. Terrance Ferguson caught both of Nix’s touchdown passes and finished with 24 yards receiving. “I felt like I didn’t do anything different, just went out there and played the game, let it come to me,” Nix said. “At the end of the day I’m a point guard, with some great positions around me, great skill players. So my job is kind of easy: Knowing what to do with the ball, knowing who to give the ball to, and then letting those guys do their thing.” Jaren Hall threw for 305 yards and two scores for BYU (2-1), which was coming off a big win at home over then- No. 9 Baylor that moved the Cougars up nine spots in the AP Top 25. They struggled on the ground against the Ducks, mustering just 61 rushing yards. “We just didn’t play as good as we should have starting off. Had a good first play, had some momentum, just didn’t finish the drive, and just kind of let things get out of hand offensively the next couple of drives,” Hall said. The Ducks (2-1) rebounded from a season- opening loss to Georgia with a 70-14 win at home over Eastern Washington last weekend. Nix ran two yards for a touchdown to give the Ducks an early lead. Camden Lewis added a 28-yard field goal to give Oregon a 10-0 lead after the opening quarter. Isaac Rex hauled down a pass from quarterback Jaren Hall for a 28-yard BYU touchdown early in the second. Oregon answered on the next drive when Nix found Troy Franklin with a 50-yard pass to get close, then ran on another 2-yard keeper to make it 17-7. Nix fired a 15-yard TD pass to Ferguson in the end zone to give Oregon a 24-7 lead heading into halftime. Nix added a 6-yard keeper early in the second half and found Ferguson for a 9-yard scoring pass to make it 38-7. Ty Thompson replaced Nix late in the third quarter. BYU closed to within 38- 14 on Hall’s 18-yard scoring pass to Kody Epps — Epps’ first touchdown as a Cougar. BYU intercepted Thompson on the Oregon 30 and were helped by a pass interference call, leading to Hall’s 2-yard scoring pass to Chris Brooks. A 2-point conversion attempt failed. Nix returned on Oregon’s next series and the drive was capped by Lewis’ 25-yard field goal to cap scoring.

Starting receivers Puka Nacua and Gunner Romney remained out. Nacua was a game-time decision because of a sore right ankle. The Cougars were also without starting defensive linemen Tyler Batty and Earl Tuioti- Mariner. ... Jake Oldroyd missed a 38-yard field goal in the opening half, his third straight miss. ... BYU was 5-0 against the Pac-12 last season. Oregon: BYU honored Oregon tight end Spencer Webb, who died in an offseason accident, by running out of the tunnel with an Oregon flag with Webb’s No. 18.... Oregon now leads the series with BYU 4-3. The previous meeting between the two was in 2006 at the Las Vegas Bowl, a 38-8 victory for the Cougars. Oregon: The Ducks visit Washington State next Saturday.
