COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL | THURSDAY, DECEMBER 5, 2019 | 3B ODFW from B1 Eagles from B1 river in November. Please note there is no retention of unclipped coho salmon in the river, but fin-clipped coho is open in the river as part of your two adult salmon daily limit. The river regulations start at the tips of the jetties. Bass fishing has still been good in most of the main. Trout fishing is currently closed on the Main and its tributaries, but will reopen next Memorial Day. Willamette Fishing Weekend fishing opportunities • This week, brood trout will be stocked in Timber Linn Lake, Waverly Lake and Junction City Pond. • Drier weather should bring water levels in Quartzville Creek down to comfortable fishing levels. • Coho anglers on the North Fork Santiam should focus their efforts in sections between Mehama and Shelburn. • The Willamette River between Albany and Harrisburg is open year- round for trout fishing, which can be very good when flows are cooperating. • It won’t be long before snow will limit access to central Oregon’s high elevation, hike-in lakes. Until then fish will be feeding aggressively as they get ready for the winter, and fishing can be good. • This time of year is great for observing Chinook and coho salmon spawning near the campground at Whittaker Creek (Siuslaw Basin). Please observe, don’t disturb. COTTAGE GROVE POND (ROW RIVER NATURE PARK POND): trout, warmwater species Was last stocked the week of Nov. 4 with 400 trophy-size rainbow trout.

COTTAGE GROVE RESERVOIR: trout, warmwater species Was last stocked the week of Sept. 30 with 1,833 trophy-size rainbow trout. Cottage Grove Reservoir is south of Cottage Grove and is open to fishing all year. Lakeside boat ramp is now open. a woman, I’m going to be totally and com- pletely different, but our practices are going really well and they’re working great with me.” So far, Hall hasn’t seen any reason to be- lieve that her gender has affected her rela- tionship with her players, an ideal outcome that allows her to focus on her passions. “I just love, love, love basketball and I en- joy coaching kids, period,” Hall said. Hall originally hails from California where she coached various levels of bas- ketball, soccer and volleyball for over 10 years. Before arriving in Yoncalla, she was the middle school boys’ basketball coach in Shady Cove and for the past year has worked as a bus driver for Elkton Charter School. Professionally, Hall has devoted her life to working with kids, yet her private life is hardly different. Hall has years of experi- ence as a foster mother and currently has nine children at home, six her own. “I just love working with kids and helping them,” Hall said. “I’ve always been kind of, like, the ‘mother hen’.” Hall provides a nurturing presence for a basketball program looking to build a new Solutions from B2 the strong voices of coaches, team leaders and alumni to send a message that hazing will not be tolerated.” Consistency is key. Ideally, an entire school campus - from the student body to teachers, administrators, coaches and myriad other staff - will be on message when it comes to the seriousness of hazing. When the problem reared its head at Cor- nell University, the school sus- pended the entire lacrosse team and a number of fraternities. In a society where sports are a hugely important cultural and financial tradition, these are not simple or easy decisions. “Prevention, intervention and response efforts need to match the problem in order to be effec- foundation after finishing the 2018-19 sea- son with a 9-15 overall record. Despite her non-traditional role as a boys’ coach, she can’t wait for an opportunity that feels noth- ing but natural to her. “I’ve seen all different kinds of personali- ties and I love boys. Boys are just the easiest for me. Ever since I was young … I’m just a tomboy!” Hall said. For the girls, Kim Beer steps in for Nico- las Edera after an 8-16 2018-19 season and, unlike Hall’s journey from California, Beer’s hire is a return to his alma mater. Beer began his career in Yoncalla coach- ing the junior varsity teams, but as a young coach couldn’t pass up an opportunity when it presented itself. “La Pine called and I ended up going there ... that was a great experience,” Beer said. And the opportunity paid off as the La Pine girls won the 2009 4A OSAA State Championship. This is precisely where Hall and Beer’s coaching philosophies intersect. For Beer, the state title wouldn’t have been possible without engagement and hard work not just from the players, but the com- munity as a whole. “I’ve been coaching long enough to know that there are some groups that do [buy in] and some groups that don’t,” Beer said. tive,” stresses Novak. For Lockhart, he knows that he has a role to play as the Elks’ head football coach, a role that he is happily taking on, but with a problem so deeply and cultur- ally rooted as hazing in sports, the answers are more wide- spread. “I think there can be more done,” Lockhart said. “The school district here is a positive example for expectations for staff and students. It can start there, but as a small community like Elkton, it needs to be com- munity-wide for it to have an effect.” A student-athlete’s life - bouncing back and forth from home to school, school to home, home to practice, prac- tice to home - is poised for suc- cess when lessons learned at “We had a group of parents there that got into everything … I had one kid miss one practice, that was it. The parents just came and told me, ‘We’re behind you. Whatever you wanna do, we’ll make sure our kid’s there.’ And we won a state championship! That championship belonged to the parents as much as to the players and the coaches.” While Hall begins the quest for a title of her own, her mantra revolves around a sim- ilar concept of togetherness. “Teamwork,” Hall said. “That’s my biggest thing, teamwork and respect for each other and towards me ... If they respect me and they respect each other, they’re gonna go miles ... It means everything for their future, not just in ball.” While the past few years of Eagle basket- ball have been less successful than desired, the teams’ prognostications are looking up. A new gym, dedicated groups of both boys and girls players and two passionate coach- es leading the way provide the necessary backdrop for the Eagles to find success both on and off the court. “My goal is to give them the tools they need to be the best that they can be, because like I said, they’re wonderful young men and they’ve got so much talent. My job is to mold that talent and help them strive,” Hall said. school and lessons learned at home form a perfect circle of agreement and reinforcement. Whether it’s the importance of a particular school subject or the abject inappropriateness of haz- ing, this is not lost on Lockhart. “Hopefully through experi- ence with community mem- bers constantly keeping people educated, having tons of infor- mation available, we can make changes when it comes to par- ents and their own choices they make within their own homes that reflects what the communi- ty’s expectations are,” said Lock- hart. “Hopefully that can right the ship so these things can start from the ground level, kind of a grassroots type of situation.” Equity and inclusiveness are hot-button topics in school dis- tricts around the country. Haz- ing is part and parcel of that dis- cussion. Much like other issues under the umbrella of equity and togetherness, the solution may not lie in data or numbers. The solution may be found simply in further exposure to and educa- tion in the kinds of stories that typically go unheard, or those of a grotesque enough nature that most people avoid. “I like the idea, especially in a town of this size, of having community meetings just at the local high school gym,” Lockhart said. “Getting together, bringing up certain issues, even having guest speakers that come in with their stories because, to me, it seems like most of us react bet- ter emotionally when it comes to personal stories and it hits home with people when it comes that way.” Imagine The Difference You Can Make Serious speed!
