Tolleson OKs salary increases
Study shows City Council members’ salaries ‘below par’
by Frances Torrez
staff writer
The Tolleson City Council approved a salary
increase for the council in 2016, city officials
said.
The city last year participated in a
comprehensive wage study, which was
completed by Fox Lawson and Associates,
Human Resources Director Wendy Jackson said.
The city opted to participate in the study to
“ensure that compensation for employees are
competitive and align with the industry and
region,” she said.
The study compared several Maricopa County
cities including Avondale, Buckeye, Glendale,
Goodyear and Phoenix, Jackson said.
The wage study showed the council’s salary
was “below par … compared to other cities
around our area,” Mayor Adolfo Gámez said.
The annual compensation is currently $12,960
for the mayor, $10,080 for the vice mayor and
$7,200 for each city council member, according

Family overcomes son’s cancer together
by Charity Yodis
staff writer
Just over a year ago, Keegen Gibbs, a high
school junior at the time, got the news he had
small cell sarcoma, a form of cancer from the
muscle of his back.
As a young and healthy teenager, the news
came as a surprise.
“I wasn’t totally shocked when I found out,
but you never think it happens to you,” the
Goodyear teen said.
In January of last year, he began a round
of chemotherapy treatments at the Banner
Thunderbird Medical Center.
To keep everyone informed, Keegen’s mother,
Jodi Harmann, started a blog to post pictures and
keep people updated on his progress.
Keegen posted on the blog a couple of times
to let people know how he was doing and give
thanks for all the support.
“Yes, it is NO fun having to go into the
hospital for days at a time and only having small
breaks in between to be an actual teenager,” he
wrote only a month after treatments had started.
“At this point, I am viewing my trials and
tribulations as a small obstacle in my life.
Something that can be overcome and beaten,”
he continued.
The blog started off with a few views and
now has nearly 100,000.
While doctors told the family that most
children or young teens postpone a year or
two of school to fight cancer, Keegen decided
to continue his education without any breaks.

KEEGEN GIBBS of Goodyear measures out feed
mix as he checks his pig at the FFA barn on the
campus of Millennium High School Jan. 6. Keegen,
who was diagnosed with cancer about a year ago,
recently finished his chemotherapy treatments.
Cancer
(From Page 1)
Now a senior at Millennium High School in Goodyear,
Keegen had to miss school five to 10 days each month
during the spring semester of his junior year and this past
fall.
“You miss a week, and you’re behind … it’s the uphill
fight of being behind all the time that can be frustrating,”
Keegen’s stepfather, Cameron Harmann, said.
Keegen said it was difficult to “play catch-up like the
whole year,” but is thankful for teachers who are “very
understanding.”
The teen, who is heavily involved in FFA and describes
himself as an active person, said his biggest difficulty was
losing his ability to be active.
“The hardest thing was, for me, losing all my weight
and strength … I was used to being pretty active,” he
said.
He said simple tasks such as walking up the stairs left
him feeling winded and out of breath.
“I think that was the hardest part for us as parents was
just seeing him weak and not feeling good … and not
being able to do anything about it,” Keegen’s father, Josh
Gibbs, said.
Despite the challenges of facing cancer, the family
worked to make the situation not so terrible. They took
family trips before and after the 14 rounds of chemo, one
to Las Vegas, and then to a rodeo.
Keegen wore a new themed T-shirt that Jodi made each
time he went into the hospital for treatment. Jodi even

during treatments, Keegen continued with no breaks.
took a cutout of a cow they jokingly named Chemoo.
Keegen’s family, which includes his mother, Jodi;
stepfather, Cameron; father, Josh; siblings, Kody,
Hannah, Kaden and Carter; and his girlfriend, Auburn
Osborne, were all by his side through the entire
process.
They had a lot of people leave words of encouragement
on the blog, and the FFA club at school and others wore
shirts reading #TeamKeegen to show their support.
“It’s pretty great to see the amount of people that pray
for you and that follow along with you and, you know,
people that don’t know you at all all of a sudden start
becoming a part of your life,” Jodi said. “It’s just amazing
the amount of support you don’t know exists.”
Keegen said the people he’s met along his journey have
been the bright spot through his cancer.
“I met some pretty amazing people and I had a lot
of opportunities to do some pretty cool things that I
wouldn’t have had otherwise. So I’m grateful for that, but
I definitely wouldn’t want to do it again,” he said.
Keegen said his experience has taught him to come out
of his shell a little and not be so shy.
“It made me grow up a little bit,” he said.
Josh said it taught his son how to keep going.
On Nov. 15, Keegen had his last chemo treatment,
and on Dec. 26, he was able to get his port-a-cath
removed, the device from his chest where the chemical is
administered.
Keegen’s doctor, Michael Graham, pediatric oncologist
at Banner, said he is a good student and “good solid
person.”
“He’s not very much of a complainer, he’s not very
much of a worrier … I found that very admirable. That’s
not an easy thing to do at 16 or 17,” Graham said. “He
just did what needed to be done.”

Donna and Don Phipps
Phippses celebrate 50 years
Don and Donna Phipps of Avondale celebrated their
50th wedding anniversary Dec. 30, 2013.
The couple were married in Goodyear and have lived in
Arizona for 60 years.
They have six children: Dusty, Sharon, Donnie, Tim,
Heidi and Jennifer; 13 grandchildren; and four greatgrandchildren.
to city officials.
The study results showed
the “unweighted average”
for each position: $24,222
for mayor; $15,809 for vice
mayor; and $26,910 for each
city council member.
The unweighted average
“refers to the average
pay earned, at the time of
the study, for the given
organization factoring in
all employees working in
the position,” Jackson said.
After city officials
analyzed the study, they
“decided as a whole that
the organization would pay
at the 50th percentile to the market results,” she said.
The new salary for the mayor will be $21,000, which is the
middle mark for mayor salaries within the study, she said.

Bus service to expand in West Valley
by Charity Yodis
staff writer
The wheels on the bus will go round and round all
through Goodyear.
Valley Metro plans to extend several routes, as well
as increase frequency of stops from every 60 minutes to
every 30 at several route stops effective Jan. 27.
Although the extensions primarily affect Goodyear,
parts of Avondale and Buckeye will see more bus traffic
as well.
Valley Metro is gearing up to extend and combine
Routes 17 and 17A, which travel on McDowell Road,
from Litchfield Road to Pebble Creek Parkway.
Romina Khananisho, government relations manager for
Goodyear, said the city is planning a couple of additional
bus stops, but will re-evaluate more based on community
feedback.
The two stops so far are on McDowell and Pebble
Creek at the Walgreens bus pad for westbound routes, and
at the same intersection in front of the T-Mobile shop for
eastbound routes, Khananisho said.
The news comes on the heels of a Goodyear Economic
Development Plan presentation that showed 48.2 percent
of residents commute to Phoenix for work.
“As a city we’re growing,” Khananisho said. “What
we did as a region, we allocated money through our
federal allocation to extend it quicker because we’re
hearing that there is more activity on bus routes.
So we want to make sure our residents are having
opportunities.”
Goodyear was originally supposed to receive funding
for the project in 2016.
“It was just an opportunity for us as a city to do
something faster than what was originally scheduled,”
Khananisho said. “It will give us the opportunity to learn
more about what our residents’ needs are when it comes
to buses.”
The additional cost for the extensions on Route 17
and Route 3 is coming from federal money allocated to
Goodyear.
Susan Tierney, Valley Metro spokeswoman, said the
city is paying $315,000 to extend the route and add
frequency.
Route 3, which extends to Fourth Street and La Canada
Boulevard, will cost Goodyear $8,000 annually for
adding frequency of service to every 30 minutes, Tierney
said.
The Zoom Circulator route, which travels into
Goodyear, is also being expanded in parts of
Avondale.
Avondale recently announced that the route going
through the city into the Cashion community will
get a new fleet of larger buses that permit up to 28
passengers.
“Avondale is pleased to offer the service expansion into
the Cashion community, giving riders more options for
travel,” Avondale Mayor Marie Lopez Rogers said in a
press release.
Route 685 is also being extended to reach the Buckeye
Walmart and White Tanks Justice Court. The route is
being modified to turn east on to Yuma Road in order to
serve those areas.
The Buckeye Express Route 563 and The Goodyear/
Downtown Express Route 562 are also having schedule
changes.
“The changes to Route 562 and 563 have occurred
to better meet travel demand on these routes,” Tierney
said.

Welcome to another edition of the Business Briefcase,
readers!
In the Jan. 7 Briefcase, I mentioned Dutch Bros.
Coffee was going in at the northwest corner of Indian
School and Litchfield roads. I’ve heard from former
Briefcaser Emily McCann that the location is looking to
hire 20 people for that location.
After checking around a bit, I
learned the coffee chain held
open interviews last week for the
Goodyear location.
So thanks, Emily, for that
information! And for all you
caffeine/coffee lovers out there,
that’s another step closer to the
place opening up. I can just hear
those orders being placed now.
Speaking of coffee, Tully’s
Coffee inside the Fry’s
Shane McOwen
Marketplace in Buckeye, 1300
S. Watson Road, has closed,
and will be replaced with a
Starbucks. The Starbucks hasn’t opened up yet, but signs
proclaim the coffee chain is “coming soon.” Keep your
eyes open for that.
For anyone looking to inject some non-caffeinated
energy into their lives, Flames Gymnastics West
opened up at 407 S. 107th Ave. in Tolleson. The gym
opened a second location in the Southwest Valley to help
accommodate participants from this area, owner Mija Lee
said. The gym in Peoria, 9850 W. Peoria Ave., has been
open for the past eight years.
“A lot of our clients are from the Avondale, Tolleson,
Buckeye area, so they’ve been begging us to open up a
place [closer], because the kind of gymnastics we offer
they can’t find over there,” Lee said.
Flames offers gymnastics and tumbling recreation
along with team options, Lee said. The Tolleson location
is open from 4 to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9
a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday.
“We have open enrollment all the time and offer free
trials,” Lee said.
Lee said the goal of Flames is to help develop children
for whatever they choose to do.
“It’s developmental. We work on coordination and
child development,” Lee said. “We just want to make
sure they’re in a safe environment and they learn things
correctly.
“So if [they] decide to go do other sports, they’ll able
to do it correctly.”
The gym is open to girls and boys of all ages.
“We’re very much family oriented, but we’re
competitive,” Lee said. “We want to teach the kids the
right way to do things.”

scheduled to have its grand opening Feb. 22, but the

OUR VIEWPOINT
McKEE’S OPINION — Augusta Chronicle
EDITORIAL
Chickens were
there first
We know where manure comes from and what it
smells like. And we know there are different “flavors”
from different sources and different intensities depending
on which way the wind blows and how recently it rained.
Hickman’s Family Farms is expanding again in the
West Valley. It had to relocate a few years ago from its
previous location in Glendale because of the growth of
housing in what had once been the boonies, way out on
91st Avenue beyond what had one time been the end of
civilization as we know it. But that’s the nature of the
Valley of the Sun, ongoing growth or sprawl ever outward
away from the center. And as the city grows, it pushes out
other uses such as farming, ranching, equestrian riding
paths and off-road vehicle paths (often over someone
else’s property). Sprawl was all consuming. And it
soon will be again as the economy strengthens. What
the Phoenix metro area thrives on is home construction
and it will continue to go through its hills and valleys.
Construction is poised for another growth spurt. And once
it is done with all the land between downtown Phoenix
and wherever it ends today, it will continue to grow even
farther out, pushing even more rural uses farther.
Many people like living in the city. They like all the
modern conveniences such as proximity to shopping,
restaurants, fast food and gas stations. But others dislike the
noise, traffic, neighbors looking over their shoulders and laws,
ordinances and CCR’s limiting what they can do with their
property. They believe a man’s home is his castle. But with
the laissez-faire and sometimes lawless nature of living in the
country also come different sights, sounds and smells. And like
anything else in life, these are the trade offs.
Either you can guarantee your neighbor can’t paint his
house green or park his restoration project ’57 Chevy in
his driveway or you have to live with a bunch of rules that
restrict what you can do with your property.
But you can’t have it both ways.
The proper place for chickens is in the country.
And while the giant Hickman’s Family Farm facility is
different than the small chicken coups that surely dot
much of the surrounding area, chickens (and goats, pigs,
horses and cows) were there first.
Non-city areas of the county aren’t completely lawless.
There are zoning regulations in place. The problem for
residents is that while they were OK with the lack of zoning
regulations when they wanted the freedom, they aren’t OK
with some of the current and potential uses that fit into
current zoning. And once you own a piece of property near
a site with zoning you’re not comfortable with, you may
be stuck, because you can’t change the zoning on someone
else’s land. What you can do before buying property is your
due diligence by reviewing zoning of surrounding property,
meeting existing neighbors, visiting the property at different
times and days of the week to see if any nuisances exist.
Zoning issues continue to be problems for residents
throughout the West Valley regardless of what city or part of
the county they live in. Find out where it is you are thinking
about living and what or who might move in next door.

polls have indicated that a majority of

Plume nearly
contained
Editor:
Later this month, the EPA will
release its recommendation of
how the source of The Plume
should be cleaned up. As
someone who drinks water, you
should be interested.
Before diving into some
details, rest assured that YOUR
DRINKING WATER IS SAFE!
Even if you live in the areas
impacted, the water delivered
to your home is safe. Local
drinking water is drawn from the
deeper, clean aquifer. Its quality
is monitored constantly.
What is “The Plume?” You may
recall that a significant pollutant
exists in the groundwater in the
upper aquifer that stretches from
the former Unidynamics plant
site (just south of Goodyear City
Hall) northward, essentially along
Litchfield Road. It now lies in an
area roughly bounded by Dysart
Road on the east, Bullard Ave on
the west, and Indian School Road
on the north.
What is that pollutant?
Trichloroethylene, or TCE,
which is an industrial solvent.
Long-term exposure to TCE may
impact your nervous system or
cause cancer.
It’s important the TCE be
contained and cleaned up.
Progress IS being made — the
plume is nearly fully contained;
it should not spread further than
it is. And soon the recommended
cleanup solution for the source
will be announced by the EPA.
THERE WILL BE A PUBLIC
MEETING on Wednesday,
February 5th, 6-9pm, at Estrella
Mountain Community College’s
new Conference Center. It’s your
opportunity to learn more about
The Plume and weigh in on how
we shall clean our water.

smellathon
Editor:
I am a retired military man
who has about seen it all
including farming for years
and trucking. I once knew a
farmer who had three chicken
houses in a large field for years
and one day a Baptist Preacher
bought the corner lot next to the
chicken houses, built his family a
beautiful brick house and a year
after moving in decided he would
sue the farmer to get rid of the
stink and flies. How dumb was
that as all it did was cause a stink
with the farmers and the preacher
woke up several mornings with
dead chickens scattered out into
his yard and not by the farmer
he was trying to get in court. He
failed miserably and I think he
must have moved to Arizona.
Why does someone move to
the country to complain about
the dust the farmers are making
or the chicken houses. Then they
complain about the prices of
food. Really now, these folks nee
to move to New York city where
there are no farmers. Then there
are those who complain about
the noise of Luke Air Force Base
after they have moved into the
area. Some folks cannot see the
economical value to this state
because of the base. So those
too need to go to New York city
where they won’t hear the planes.
And by the way, I have
probably been a Republican a lot
longer than some but I am glad to
see a President for the people as
in Obamacare so the many who
didn’t have insurance can have
it. Most of those who are down
on Obama are mostly racists
anyway. It’s better than being in
a war we don’t need to be in as
the one Bush had. That is just my
Republican opinion.

spend their days roaming the
neighborhoods, raiding nests and
several times, stalking me.
After all, the ‘logic’ seems to go,
this is rural. There are all these other
creatures here. And the state of
Arizona allows for the protection of
feral cats. If you don’t like it, I can
almost hear them say, call Animal
Control. Or better yet, move.
It’s passive aggressive to
introduce your own personal
predators into a fragile ecosystem.
Animal Control knows pet owners
defend their pets’ behaviors, period.
By the current reasoning it won’t
be long before all the naturally
occurring wildlife in the area is
decimated. Because if we can
justify our pets hunting everything,
why not just cull all the water fowl?
I’m buying pepper spray. I’m
hoping that posting this notice
might protect me from jail time the
first time I have to use it because
somebody’s pit bull’s freedom to
come at me is more important than
my right to protect myself.
I guess my nature studies will
have to include a note to self that
the true nature of west valley
culture is to be simultaneously
backward, back woods and hood.
All who think this is what it
means to peacefully coexist with
nature demonstrate why there is
so little prosperity here. Nobody
wants to deal with your funkiness.
I like it here because at least none
of you can get very far in an effort
to prove you’re better than you are.

Ignorance isn’t
bliss
Editor:
Bravo to Mr. Moore
(January 10th). Not only did
he demonstrate his ignorance
of Constitutional Law, but his
inability to comprehend English!
Go back and re-read my
December 27th letter, where I
stated the Constitution “designates
only a few specific places where a
supermajority is required (notably
to amend the Constitution itself)”.
Among those “few specific places”
(of course) are the Bill of Rights,
and the Thirteenth, Fourteenth,
and Fifteenth Amendments. To
change those requires a two-thirds
vote by both houses of Congress,
and ratification by the Legislatures
of three-fourths of the States.
(Article Five) This is the largest
supermajority required by our Law!
And that’s why (to answer his
ignorant question) Mississippi can’t
deny Blacks the right to vote. The
Fifteenth Amendment forbids it.
However, there is no
constitutional ban on polygamy.
States are free to allow it as they
please. It might be a terrible
idea, but the Constitution doesn’t
forbid it. (Unlike the Thirteenth
Amendment — which forbids
slavery, or the 14th — which
forbids denying anyone the
“equal protection of the laws”).
So, yes, if Utah allows public
referendums (as Arizona does),
then its people (by majority rule)
can vote to allow polygamy.
True, a law must “pass
Constitutional muster” to be valid,
but that doesn’t depend on whether
it was passed by a majority, or a
supermajority. Even if supported
by all but one American, laws
infringing constitutional rights
would still be invalid. In such
cases, the only majority which
counts is “a majority of one”!
But ordinarily, to pass a law
all that’s normally required is
a simple majority vote, “that
fundamental maxim of republican
government” (The Federalist
Papers, Number 22, page 142 of
the Signet Classic Edition). Mr.
Moore simply doesn’t know what
he’s talking about. His opinion on
this topic is worthless.

Chickens weren’t
here first
Editor:
I take issue with Norma
Broom’s letter to the editor in the
January 10 issue of West Valley
View. She says, “Leave the dairy
& chickens alone — they were
here first.” This is not true. There
are over 3000 people working in
Electrical Power Generation near
the Buckeye Facility. We were
here long before Hickman’s Egg
Ranch. We get to share that awful
smell every day at work. Some of
my co-workers owned homes next
to the facility. The value of their
homes was negatively affected by
their new neighbor. They not only
get to share the smell, but they
took a huge financial hit because
of Hickman’s Egg Ranch. The
other thing that misleads people is
the reference to Hickman’s Family
Farms or Hickman’s Egg Ranch.
Anyone who has seen one of these
large facilities can vouch for the
fact that these are not farms.
These are industrial protein
and fertilizer factories and should
be treated as such by the Arizona
Department of Environmental
Quality. I can guarantee that if
any of the large power plants or
other businesses in the area were
making this much odor, they
would be held accountable.

Flynn’s follies
Editor:
I was quite surprised by John
Flynn’s recent tirade dealing with
the Republican parties positions in
the upcoming mid-term elections.
I always assumed the party in
power and its supporters touted its
accomplishments while they have
been in office. Mr Flynn, maybe
you can change your strategy and
try these suggestions.
You could start by reminding
Americans how Mr. Obama
blatantly lied to the American
public about his health care plan.
Does the phrase “if you like your
health care plan you can keep
it,” come to mind? How about,
“if you like your doctor, you can
keep him.” I know, why don’t
you bring up that dummy Nancy
Pelosi telling Congress “Let’s
pass this bill and then we will
find out what’s in it.” Gee whiz,
that did not go over to well. Let
us concentrate on other areas.
I know, lets go to Mr Obama’s
success in stamping out Al Qaeda
as a world wide terrorist threat.
Hold on here!!! It seems Al
Qaeda has recently seized control
of government buildings and
districts of Fallujah and Ramadi
in Iraq as well as large parts of
civil war torn Northern Syria. It
seems Mr Obama forgot about the
famous quote from Mark Twain.
“The reports of my demise have
been greatly exaggerated.”
Lets put the old thinking cap
on here John and I’m sure we can
come up with something. How
about Obama’s Attorney General,
Eric Holder of the gun running Fast
&Furious debacle which resulted
in the death of Border Patrol Agent
Terry. Lets skip that too!
The NSA scandal, Edward
Snowdens defection, IRS
embarrassment, Obamacare rollout.
Sorry Mr Flynn just too many
negatives here. I don’t think even
you can put a happy face on these
disasters!

NOT AVOID walking outside to
do a single thing without inhaling
cow & chicken sh*t covering the
whole valley for miles. The IDIOT
housing developers had no business
building so close to farms that DO
NOT clean up and dispose of huge
piles of manure. Buckeye recently
had E-coli in the drinking water.
That came from cow sh*t. On
Jackrabbit Rd there is a huge dairy
farm. I drove past this summer and
saw 2 cows standing on top of a
20 ft high pile of manure. There
isn’t a blade of grass for the cows
to lay on, and if you think laying in
manure isn’t contaminating dairy
products, guess again.
Farmers here should be forced
by the state to get rid of crap
piles. Oh, did I mention we can’t

Tigers beat Knights in defensive match

struggling to score goals.

hopes.
The game’s lone goal came midway
through the second half.
Tim Jordan crossed the ball from
near the left sideline to the front of the
Westview goal. The ball bounced off
a pack of players and back to the left,
where it was corralled by Jacob Romo,
who banged home the rebound for his
seventh goal of the season.
“There was a deflection off a bunch of
guys and I finished,” Romo said.
“That was a nice goal by Romo,”
Millennium coach Ben Ganados said.
“It was the luck of the draw, the ball
was bouncing everywhere,” Westview
coach Steve Soto said of the goal.
Millennium (9-7-2) entered the match
having scored only 37 goals, averaging
2.23 per contest. However, that was
skewed by the seven goals the Tigers
scored Jan. 14 against Valley Vista.
Westview’s offense was even more
anemic. The Knights had netted 20 goals
and were averaging 1.54 goals per game.
Depleted rosters
Scoring woes have been largely a
byproduct of the depleted rosters of both
teams.

After a sluggish start, Westview awoke from the
doldrums and went on to a 58-41 win over visiting
Phoenix Mountain Ponte Jan. 15.
The Pride jumped to a quick 7-0 lead as the Knights
seemed a step slow.
“We were down 7-0 but our kids didn’t panic,” coach
Brendan McEvoy said.

who hit two of his four
triples in the Mountain

Westview tied the sore for the first time at 14-14 on
another Gray 3-pointer.
The Pride regained the lead, 17-14, but Storme
Donahue knotted it up with a 3-pointer.
Mountain Pointe led 22-21 when the Knights went on
7-0 run behind a basket and two free throws by Kendall
Barnes and a hoop and free throw by Isaiah Bellamy.
However, the Pride scored the game’s next seven points
to regain the upper hand, 29-28.
Bellamy made one of two free throws with 6 seconds
remaining to tie the score at the half, 29-29.
“We led 28-22 late in the first half and gave it all back,”
McEvoy said. “It was very subdued in the locker room
at halftime. We were happy with being tied after playing
most of the second quarter without Andre [Adams, who
was in foul trouble].”
“I told them, ‘If you want it, you will have to match
their physicality.
“In the second half, they just decided they weren’t
going to let them come in and best us.”
Picking up the intensity
Westview rachetded up the intensity and came out
and played much more aggressively in the second half,
especially Adams.
Adams scored six points, grabbed four rebounds and
blocked three shots in the third period, as the Knights
seized a 42-39 lead heading into the final quarter.
The Knights had possession of the ball to open the
fourth quarter and remained extremely patient while
looking for an uncontested shot. They finally got it when
Barnes drove down the lane for a layup with 5:47 left in
the contest, giving Westview a little breathing room at
44-39.
“It was not a delay,” McEvoy said. “We waited for
them to come out and then ran Isaiah along the baseline
fort a shot. When they didn’t come out, we held onto the
ball.”
Bellamy stole the ensuing inbounds pass and scored to
make it 46-39.
Mountain Pointe’s Emmanuel Butler stole the ball and
dunked to cut the deficit to 46-41 midway through the
fourth quarter.
Westview then ran some more clock before Adams
go loose down low for a hoop, keying a 12-0 run that
ensured victory for the Knights.
The Pride’s Chris Davis scored a menaingless basket
with 35 seconds remaining to close out the scoring.

the wing rather than the top of the zone.
“I diagramed it for them at halftime,”
Dille said.
Copper Canyon ran off seven straight
points to take a 46-18 lead but La Joya
again finished strongly, scoring the
period’s final four points, making it 45-22
entering the final quarter.
La Joya got 3-pointers from Mercado
and Bailey sandwiched around two free
throws by Copper Canyon’s Paulina
Marquez to make it 48-28.
Copper Canyon led 52-28 but La Joya
scored the game’s final four points on
a free throw by Brenda Ortiz and three
charity tosses by Mercado, who was
fouled while attempting a 3-pointer.
Dille was pleased with his team’s effort
in the second half, in which it outscored
Copper Canyon 20-13.
“In the first half, we were not getting
the 50-50 balls,” Dille said. “They gave
their best in the second half.
“We played much better against them
than the first time we played them.”
Copper Canyon defeated La Joya 51-21
Dec. 7 in the Phoenix Christian Holiday
Tournament
One problem persisted throughout
the game — turnovers. The Lady Lobos
committed 51 turnovers.
“We have to develop a pure point guard
who can handle the ball,” Dille said.
Mercado and Chavez both scored eight
points to lead the Lady Lobos. Bailey
added six.
“Annalisya Mercado played well,” Dille
said. “She has gotten more confident with
her shot. She is probably our best shooter.”
The play of Pandell off the bench also
encouraged Dille. Pandell scored four
points and grabbed three rebounds.
“Taylor Pandell has been playing
basketball for just over a year,” Dille said.
“She’s come a long way in a short time.”
Farinas was held in check in the second
half. After scoring 16 points in the first
half, she finished the game with 17 points
to lead the Lady Aztecs.
Bribb Lopez and Bibianna Mora both
scored eight points for Copper Canyon.

It has been a season-long learning
experience for La Joya’s youthful girls
basketball team and class was in session
Friday at Glendale Copper Canyon.
Copper Canyon (8-13) schooled the
visiting La
Joya (2-19)
in a 52-32
GIRLS
victory.
BASKETBALL
The Lady
Lobos are
a youthful
squad with only three upper classmen on
the 14-player roster.
“They are still learning the game,” coach
Aaron Dille said. “We have to set goals
every game and focus on certain things.
“Our goals [tonight] were to work on
our press break, keep calm and run our
offense and improve our rebounding from
the last time we played them. We did a
much better job of rebounding but we did
not stay calm in trapping situations.”
Pressured by Copper Canyon’s defense in
the first half, La Joya committed 34 turnovers
and fell behind 39-12 at intermission.
Copper Canyon scored the game’s first
13 points and La Joya never got any closer
than 12 points, 13-1, in the opening 16
minutes.
La Joya’s initial point came on an
Annalisya Mercado free throw with 2
minutes and 55 seconds left in the first
quarter. The team’s first basket was scored
by Fianna Maugaotega with 1:30 left in
the half and made the score 37-10.
The Lady Aztecs took their largest lead
of the game, 39-10, on a pair of free throws
by Abrianna Farinas at the 1:21 mark.
Antoniah Bailey scored on a put-back
for La Joya to close out the half with
Copper Canyon leading 39-12 behind
Farinas’ 16 points.
Turn around
ANNALISYA MERCADO of La Joya gets up a shot over the outstretched hands
of a Copper Canyon defender Friday. Mercado scored eight points in the Lady
Lobos’ 52-32 loss.

Tolleson trio signs with colleges
by Casey Pritchard
assistant sports editor
Tolleson baseball coach Scott
Richardson has put together an extremely
competitive program year after year, and
the success of his athletes is showing form
in what they’ve accomplished for their
futures.
Four Wolverine baseball players have
already
signed
BASEBALL
national
letters of
intent to play
at the collegiate level, including three who
did so last Friday. Isaac Parra signed with
Gateway Community College in Phoenix,
while Xavier Terrazas inked with Cochise
College in Douglas, Ariz., and Dominique
Rodriguez penciled himself into Vernon
College in Vernon, Texas.
“It’s really exciting,” Richardson said.
“With Billy [Wilson, who signed in
November to go to Loyola Marymount
University in Los Angeles] being our
fourth, to have four guys sign this early
takes a lot of pressure off those guys, and
all those guys have put their work in the
last four years, so it’s good to be able to
see some of that hard work pay off. Our
younger guys can see that, too. It’s an
exciting time for us.”
Parra
Parra, who has been a four-year starter,
plays shortstop for the Wolverines. He
began his high school career at second
base, but shifted to short for his junior
year and had a spectacular defensive
season in 2013.
“He’s had some pretty good guys
to learn from at that position in Oscar
Gonzalez and Eddie Villa, he’s followed
in their footsteps,” Richardson said.
“I’m convinced if Isaac was 6 feet tall
he would have signed in November with
a Division I [school]. This is going to
give him an opportunity to go and mature
physically, mature in the classroom, so I
think it’s a great opportunity for him.”
TOLLESON BASEBALL PLAYERS, from left, Isaac Parra, Dom Rodriguez and Xavier Terrazas sign National Letters
of Intent to play college baseball last week under the watchful eye of coach Scott Richardson.
Parra, who is 5-foot-8, isn’t the flashiest
of defenders, but he makes playing the
position look easy and covers a lot of
ground.
“What I’ve told all the coaches I’ve
talked to is if you want a shortstop that
gets every single ball and throws a strike
to first base, Isaac is the guy you want,”
Richardson said. “He makes plays on balls
that are hit at him, and he makes plays on
balls that aren’t hit at him.”
Playing good defense runs in the
Parra family blood, Isaac said. His dad,
Ricardo, played a year of rookie ball in
the Philadelphia Phillies’ organization,
and three professional years in Mexico.
“Defensively, I kind of have the genes,”
Parra said. “My dad played professional
baseball, and he played good
defense.
“I work hard at it. My dad taught me
well, taught me to be humble and if you
make an error, don’t kick yourself for it.
Defense is my strong suit.”
Parra admits he needs to work on
his hitting, but he’s excited for the
opportunity to play in college, and hopes
to continue with baseball well past the

Local baseball team
wins tournament title
The Cardinals Baseball USA, 18U club
team, won the Silver Championship in the
USSSA Winternationals Tournament for
18U held at the Goodyear Spring Training
complex Dec. 27-30.
The Cardinals opened play in the Silver
Bracket by defeating the Albuquerque, N.M.,
Elite Team behind pitching from Cody Fisher.
In Round 2, Matt Olgin surrendered no
hits over five innings and the Cardinals
held off the Arizona Wildfire, 8-6.
That put the Cardinals in the championship
against the Arizona Future Stars Royals,
which they won, 2-1, in nine innings.
After the teams traded runs in the first
inning, it was a pitchers duel into extra
innings until the Cardinals scored a run
in the top of the ninth with Erik Kleine
driving in Nate Rosky for the winning run
after a sacrifice from Ethan Hyman.
Chaz Mighells went the distance for the
win.
The team was coached by Chuck
Mighells, Joe Guerrero and Derald Rine.
Players were: Erik De Leon, Gio Lopez,
Benji Cabrera, Hyman, Logan Woodward,
Rosky, Kleine, Sam Anspach, Olgin, Cody
Fisher, Chase Rine and Chaz Mighells.
The championship moved the Cardinals
into the No. 1 spot in the national rankings.
Local youngsters win
Jiu-jitsu world titles
A pair of local youngsters won titles
at the Sport Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu World
Championships in December at the Walter
Pyramid at the University of CaliforniaLong Beach.
Jacob Iniguez, 6 years old, won a gold
medal (Gi Division) and a silver medal
(No-Gi Division ). Jacob had four fights
in the gi division and 3 fights in the no-gi
division.
Colby Oxley, 8, captured a gold medal
(Gi Division). Colby had 3 fights in the go
division.

community college level.
“It’s every ballplayer’s dream to play in
college, and after two years at community
college I’m going to try to go to a Division
I university, and hopefully if I work hard,
get to the MLB [Major League Baseball],”
Parra said. “I’m really excited. I know
I’m going to put the effort in and work
hard, just like I do in high school. [College
baseball] was my goal and my family goal,
so it was a great accomplishment. I’m
pretty blessed and excited.”
Parra plans on studying nursing.
Terrazas
Terrazas will play at Cochise, a place
that became interested in him while he
was participating in a camp at Desert
Mountain High School during the
Christmas break, he said.
“I’m pretty excited,” Terrazas said. “It’s
always been a dream to play at the next
level, and now that I have the opportunity
to play at the collegiate level I’m pretty
excited. I can’t wait.”
Terrazas had a breakout season for
Tolleson last year, but it was no surprise to
Richardson. Terrazas has always had the
potential.
“Since his freshman year we’ve seen
that talent, it just took him a little while
to get it figured out in the classroom,”
Richardson said. “He hasn’t been a
surprise. We saw him early and said
‘Wow, if we can get him to focus and take
care of business outside the lines, he’ll
have a chance to be pretty good.’ Last year
he did that.”
Terrazas said that playing sports has
helped him stay on track in the classroom.
His hard work has also carried over to the
Rodriguez
Rodriguez has not yet played a game
for Tolleson in the regular season, but the
Buckeye transfer knows Richardson well.
“I’ve known Dom since he was 8 years
old, he’s grown up at our house,” Richardson
said. “He’s a true switch hitter, really solid
defender, can play third, shortstop and
second base, and he will play all three of
those defensive positions for us.”
Rodriguez, who earned his spot at
Vernon after attending a Christmas camp
at Maryvale Sports Complex and getting
recognized, said he’s pretty excited about
this opportunity.
“It’s once in a lifetime and I plan on
taking advantage of it, playing good
out there,” Rodriguez said. “I’m pretty
excited.”
When Rodriguez gets there, he’ll see
some familiar faces in Cesar Chavez
alumni Mike Sordia and Verrado alum P.J.
Garcia, both of whom play ball at Vernon.
Rodriguez knows both of them.
“It will be a good opportunity to start
there because I’m going to be ahead of the
game, they [Sordia and Garcia] will help
me out with things,” Rodriguez said.
Rodriguez has not yet picked a major,
he said, but he took a visit recently and
liked the college.
“It’s a nice little town, small town,
nothing to do but play baseball, lift
[weights] and go to school,” Rodriguez
said. “That’s definitely a place to work on
your game.”

Pet of
the Week
You wanted pets, we give you pets.
With this weekly feature, readers can view profiles of
adoptable cats and dogs of various shapes and sizes from
Glendale’s Sun Valley Animal Shelter.
Most of the animals that will have their mugs shown
in this space will be canines and felines that are a little
harder to place because of size, age or a special need,
but are wonderful pets nonetheless. Each animal has its
own character so if you’re smitten by an animal in this
column, head down to the shelter and see for
yourself.
There’s no guarantee it will
still be there, but if it’s not,
maybe the shelter has
another animal that fits
your own needs, your own
personality. Here’s this
week’s Pet of the Week:
NAME: Lanie
SEX: Female
AGE: 1 Year
BREED: Domestic short
hair
OTHER: Lanie was taken to the
shelter because her original owners had to move. After
some time at the shelter, she was adopted, but taken back
because her new owners were allergic.
She is a very well behaved cat that really stands out
from the crowd at the shelter. She is a sweet, lovable cat,
very quiet and super friendly.

EPA SEEKS COMMENTS ON PROPOSED
IMPROVEMENT TO CLEANUP PLAN FOR THE
PHOENIX-GOODYEAR AIRPORT (NORTH)
SUPERFUND SITE
The United States Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) has completed a proposed groundwater cleanup
plan for the Phoenix-Goodyear Airport (North) Superfund
Site (Site) in Goodyear, AZ.
The Proposed Plan intends to improve the original remedy
selected in 1989 by shortening the cleanup time for both
trichloroethylene and perchlorate, the two contaminants
of concern at the Site. This improved cleanup plan is in
addition to the current cleanup, which includes pumping
and treating of contaminated groundwater as well as soil
vapor extraction.

At The Buzzer
The Proposed Plan summarizes the seven cleanup
alternatives evaluated for improving cleanup at the
Site and identifies EPA’s preference. EPA’s preferred
alternative is to inject chemicals and organisms into the
source area in order to chemically and biologically treat
the contaminants of concern.
The public comment period for the Proposed Plan
begins Thursday January 23, 2014 and ends Monday
February 24, 2014. EPA will hold a public meeting on
Wednesday February 5, 2014 from 6:00-9:00pm to
present the Proposed Plan and formally record oral
and written comments. The meeting will be held at
the Estrella Mountain Community College Conference
Room at 3000 N. Dysart Rd. Avondale, AZ. You can
also comment in writing by mail postmarked no later
than February 24, 2014 to Amanda Pease (SFD 6-3),
US EPA Region 9, 75 Hawthorne St., San Francisco,
CA 94105, by phone at (415) 972-3068, and by email at
[email protected]. The EPA will respond to
comments received in a responsiveness summary that
will be part of the final decision document, which will be
an amendment to the 1989 Record of Decision (ROD).
The public will be notified once the ROD amendment
is available for review at the site repositories. You are
encouraged to participate and your input can influence
EPA’s final decision.
The documents used to develop this Proposed Plan are
available as paper copies and on CDs at the Goodyear
Branch Library, 250 N. Litchfield Rd., Suite 185, Goodyear,
AZ 85338, (602) 652-3000 and the Sam Garcia Library, 495
E. Western Ave., Avondale, AZ 85323, (623) 333-2600.
These documents are also available at the Superfund
Records Center, 95 Hawthorne St., San Francisco, CA
94105, (415) 536-2000. The Proposed Plan fact sheet
and other information about the Phoenix-Goodyear
Airport Site can also be found at EPA’s Site web page at
