ALSEA RIVER: Winter steelhead Winter steelhead fishing has been slow on the Alsea River and on the popular NF Alsea bank fishery. The river is in prime shape after the high water but the fishing continues to be slow. The Alsea River remains open for steelhead through the month of April but will close on April 30. Even though the fishing has been slow there are still a few bright fish around. The later returning right quick victory in the opener thanks to a 6-run series in the third inning that put Siuslaw head 10-1 and just one score away from a five-inning win. The Viks tacked on 3 more runs in the top of the fifth, and though Cottage Grove was able to bring 1 run across the plate in the bot- tom of the inning, it was well short of keeping Siuslaw from the win, 13-2, due to the 10-run rule. “I was pleased to see our B Y N ED H ICKSON Siuslaw News Both Siuslaw ball clubs were on the road last Friday to take on the Lions in Cottage Grove.

PeaceHealth Medical Group will contribute medical supplies along with the time and exper- tise of five providers and several Medical Assistants for the sports physicals, which can be obtained during the Sports Physical Day being held at Siuslaw Middle School. Sports physicals are required in order to participate in extracur- ricular sports in grades 6 through 12, and in some youth sports leagues. This pre-participation physical exam is an important part of safe sports participation. The exam can help screen athletes for potential illness or conditions that may limit or re- strict their ability to participate in a school sport. It helps ensure that students who play sports are physically capable of meeting the demands of the sport in which they choose to participate, and don’t have any conditions that may be aggravated by intense ex- ercise. Sports physicals are required prior to the student starting any type of practice related to their chosen sport. During the Sports Physical Day, students receive a “Sports Pre-Participation Examina- tion.” This examination includes height, weight, blood pressure, pulse check, eye chart exam and examination by a provider. Also included is a health history ques- tionnaire that asks about the stu- dent’s medical history of injury, illness and other conditions, such as asthma, to help ensure that they are being properly cared for and any or all conditions a stu- dent may have are being properly addressed. If a provider encounters a med- ical issue with a student, this in- formation will be documented on their sports physical form and the parents and/or guardians will be notified by an employee from PeaceHealth Medical Group to al- low student issues to be addressed See PHYSICALS 2B A mother is she who can take the place of all others but whose place no one else can take.
