A Certificate of Heroism was presented to Dan Rutledge (pictured third from right)
at the City Council meeting on Monday, September 9th. As a firefighter, it’s Dan
Rutledge’s job to save lives, but it’s more than a job for him. It’s his calling, and his
mind and body are always ready to answer that calling, even when he’s not on duty.
That is exactly what happened on Monday, June 10, 2013, as Glenda Kruger, City of
Katy resident, (pictured second from left) was exiting the worship center at First Baptist
Church to teach a kindergarten class at Vacation Bible School, Glenda suddenly
collapsed in the lobby and stopped breathing and had no pulse. As if by divine
intervention, a few feet away stood an experienced, well-trained Houston firefighter,
Senior Captain Dan Rutledge. Dan immediately jumped into action and began
performing CPR and using the automatic external defibrillator located nearby. Due to
Captain Rutledge’s quick action and knowledge, Glenda’s life was saved. Because
CPR was started within the first few minutes of Glenda’s collapse, she suffered no
brain or organ damage. Glenda considers Dan Rutledge to be her guardian angel sent
by God to save her, and for that he will forever be a hero in her eyes.

Nick Childs To Speak To KBA Sept. 25th
Nicholas Childs was one of the few Cadets in JROTC in
the United States to receive the Sons of American Revolution
Award for outstanding leadership qualities. He began
studying Political Science at San Jacinto College after High
School and started his sales career by accidently stumbling
into auto sales selling Hondas for McDavid Honda of
Houston. After two years Nicholas was the most recommended
salesman at the dealership according to Dealerrater.com and
had the most 5 star reviews. He was ranked #1 for customer
service. This helped earn his promotion to Internet Manager
making him the youngest manager in the dealership.
Nick currently works for Meritage Homes and has recently
been awarded a “Simply Excellent Award” for Selling three
homes in Falls at Green Meadows out from under a blue tent
before an office was constructed.
Nicholas studied with The International Toastmasters and
is a member of The Masonic Lodge #1053 in League City.
He quickly became good friends with many residents in Katy
including Jean Machann, Ward Stanberry and Mayor Hughes.
He currently is a regular attendee at Katy’s City Council
Meetings and is an active participant in the community.
Nicholas aspires to one day be on the City Council for
Katy and to build a solid and positive reputation in the City
of Houston.

Katy Tigers Top The Woodlands 37-14
By Tom Behrens, CoveringKaty.com
In what was expected to be the best test
of the young football season for the Katy
Tigers, the game against The Woodlands
turned into another rout for the Tigers. The
Highlanders had only allowed a total 177
yards last week in their win over Hightower.
But they hadn’t played the duo of
Huddleston and Doiron at quarterback,
running backs Rodney Anderson and Kyle
Porter, and a rock solid defensive and
offensive line that don’t get the credit they
deserve.
The scoring in The Woodlands – Katy
game was a repeat performance of the
previous two. The Tigers took control in the
first and second quarters chalking up
another win before the game was over.
The Tigers scored on their second
possession of the first quarter after
beginning with the ball on their own 20
yard line. Under the direction of Kiley
Huddleston Katy moved the ball all the
way to the Highlanders’ 12 yard line before
the drive stalled out. Manny Mendosa came
on and nailed a field goal making it 3-0.
In the second quarter the proverbial
scoring floodgate sprung open for Katy
with Rodney Anderson scoring 3 TDs.
These plays should make the highlight
videos. Anderson had two touchdowns in
30 seconds. The first came when he broke
loose a 97 yard run down the sideline to
score. The second TD, exactly 30 seconds,
later came after The Woodlands fumbled
the ball away on their own 9 yard line. Nine
yards out – no problem for Anderson. Put
another TD on the score board. At 2:44 left
in the quarter Anderson scores again from 3
yards after a sustained Katy drive beginning
at the Katy 23 yard line.
At the end of the first half Anderson
accumulated 172 yards rushing. With about
4 minutes left in the third quarter he had
chalked up his third 200 plus yard game; he
finished with 226 yards rushing, 240 total
yards.
The Tiger defense just keeps getting
better every game. One of the reasons is the
play of linebacker, Collin Wilder.
Collin Wilder and Travis Whillock
intercepted the Highlanders twice. Wilder
started for the Tigers as a freshman. “I’m a
big competitor and if I’m not playing at the
highest level I can, then I’m not satisfied.”
Cinco Ranch Defeats Cy Ridge 49-26
By Tom Behrens, CoveringKaty.com
says Wilder. “When I started I asked Coach
Joseph what I had to do to make the varsity.
He gave me those opportunities and it
wasn’t easy.”
On the trick play the Highlanders used in
the third quarter to score their first
touchdown: “I was bitter, I’m not going to
lie, but it will prepare us for later games,”
continued Wilder. “The next time that
happens we will be ready. We know our
potential and how young we are,” says
Wilder. “We expect to make big plays.”
The Woodlands scored on a 5 yard pass to
Tyler Patrick who then tossed the ball back
to Patrick Carr who left the Katy defenders
flatfooted, scoring on a 60 yard run.
In the second half the Tigers substituted
liberally. Kiley Huddleston alternated
quarterback duties with Garrett Doiron. The
Tigers duo completed 8 of 21 passes. The
question was asked if the injury Huddleston
suffered last week’s game was giving him
problems.
He says he’s healthy. “Just a few injuries
we are taking care of in the preseason,” said
Huddleston. “Preseason does count, but it’s
not the end of the world. We have been
taking care of my injuries so I can be 100
percent when district competition begins.”
Did the Highlanders present the challenge
that the Tigers expected?
“We played a team that is very
fundamentally sound,” Huddleston answered.

“We just came out and did our job. We made
a couple of mistakes that we need to clean
up for next week. I always come out
expecting it to be a hard game.”

The Cinco Ranch Cougars mixed a
combination of passing and running to easily
defeat the Cy Ridge Rams, 49-26 Saturday
evening at Rhodes Stadium. This was Cy
Ridge’s first game of the season.
In the Cougars second possession of the
first quarter Blake Hirsch ripped off a 62 yard
run to the Ram’s 25 yard line. Three plays
later Jonathan Lugo scored from three yards
out. PAT was made and Cinco Ranch was on
the scoreboard for their first touchdown of
the evening.
Cy Ridge garnered four yards in two plays
on their next possession and then fumbled
the ball as the snap went wide of the
quarterback. The Cougars took over
possession of the ball on the Ram 13 yard
line and scored four plays later on a one yard
run by Hirsch.
Starting the second quarter this time the
Cougars fumbled on their own 23 yard line
giving the Rams their best field position of
the evening. Running back, Anthony
Williams, took advantage of the situation
scoring from the 17.
Cinco Ranch scored once more before
halftime, mixing a combination of passes
from Luke Klingler and runs by Jonathan
Lugo and Blake Hirsch to make the
score 28-7.
Starting the third quarter Klingler
connected to Corey Ceniceros for 35 yards.
With the PAT Cougars were ahead 35-7.
Many teams would have rolled over at this
point, but the Rams weren’t conceding
anything. On their next possession Anthony
Williams scored and it’s 35-14.
Unfortunately for the Rams, neither were
the Cougars finished scoring. With 3:17 left
in the third quarter Blake Hirsch scores again
for Cinco Ranch making the score 42-14. Cy
Ridge receiver Luis Betancourt hauls in a
pass to give the Rams their third TD of the
evening. The PAT was wide making the score
42-20.
Going into the fourth quarter each team
had enough gas in the tank to score one more
time. Both teams were beginning to show the
effects of a hard fought second half. Cy Ridge
scored first making it 42-26. The Rams tried
for a two point conversion but fail. With 4:53
left in the game Klingler connects with Geryn
Young for 33 yards, making the final score
49-26. Without the 28 points the Cougars
amassed in the first half, the outcome of the
game could have been different.
By Ahmard Vital
In the world of leadership, age is
nothing but a number, a quite irrelevant
one in the opinion of some. Those who
put in the work necessary and produce
results have earned the right to leader and
claim that top spot. On the Katy volleyball
team, Madison McConnell has claimed
that top spot. And oh yeah, she is only a
sophomore.
Last season, McConnell was on the
varsity squad as a No. 2 rotation player,
getting some valuable playing time. But
eventually, the 5-foot-10 middle blocker
would rise up and earn her place at the
starter’s table. She not only did that, but
also has taken on a leadership role, which
she gladly and willingly accepts.
“I enjoy leading our team and holding
everyone accountable. We hold ourselves
to the high standards that we set,”
McConnell said. “For me, I like the
position I hold because I don’t have to
worry about putting fmuch pressure on
my team. I place that pressure on me
because I am in a position to make plays.
I have no problem taking the heat for my
team.”
Spoken like Fortune 500 CEO with
those words. But the actions support that.
Katy volleyball coach Karen Paxton said
that McConnell is having a great year and
is the team’s kill leader almost every
night. That’s probably because McConnell
averages about 15 kills per game, and
this is before the start of district play.
This season will be one of focus like no
other, especially after a 2012 season
where Katy did not play past the regular
season. McConnell already sees positive
changes occurring with the team for the
start of this season.
“I definitely think we will have a good
year. We have come together as a team a
lot better than we did last year,”
McConnell said. “We are hoping to get a
district championship and get into a few
rounds of the playoffs.”
As the new leader of the Lady Tiger
team, McConnell took upon herself to
get things going. With things a little
rocky from the previous year, she and
setter Amy Miller put in some extra work
so that things will flow on the court
better.
When the communication between the
setter and the rest of the team, especially
with middle blockers and outside hitters,
is going well, the flow of the game is
much more harmonious. That was a full
transition and transformation for
McConnell.
“Last year I was second string and was
really trying to find my way. This year
the setter (Miller) and I are communicating
a lot better,” McConnell said. “There’s a
difference with us. We met some in the
off season and over the summer for some
one-on-one time. It was important for us
to find out what we needed from each
other.”
So far, it seems as though things are
working well within the inner workings
of the team and the expectations within
the organization are high. But the team
knows it will be no easy road. With Cinco
Ranch defending its title and the
emergence of Seven Lakes, it will be a
fight to the top.
With the accountability factor and the
standards set, this is a fight that this team
is mentally and physically ready to
endure.
