4-H volunteers recognized

By KAREN S. LOWRY I Extension Agent, 4-H And Youth Why do people volunteer? People volunteer because they derive personal satisfaction from contributing to others, they make a difference, they meet new people, they learn new skills and they relieve stress. Although most volunteers give little thought to receiving recognition, it is important that our volunteers be recognized for their contributions to our county 4-H program. Thirty-six Kosciusko County 4-H leaders and 20 friends of 4-H were recognized on Thursday, Dec. 13. They were presented with pins, planning calendars and leadership and appreciation certificates at the annual 4-H Leaders’ Recognition Banquet

READING THE SCRIPT — These second grade students at the Milford School gave it their all when they performed a very special puppet show for four residents of the Lakeland Loving Care Nursing Home. Each Tuesday, the students take turns reading to different residents of the nursing home that visit the school. This week, though, Mrs. Dorothy Gall, decided her second graders should do something a little special for their visitors. “The Birthday Party" puppet show involved all 30 of the students. Eight students read the lines of eight friendly animals, each brought to life by the other students. Shown reading her part is Sue Viilalovos at left.

Warriors to host Eagles with two-game win streak on the line

(Continued from page 8) seniors Jason Mickley, Matt Haab and Dennis Garland, along with sophomore Jake Lambert and Kyle Newcomer, Gurrado commented that fans are likely to see a lot of different faces in the lineup for his squad. "We like to go about 10 deep and play whoever has the hot hand during the game. We don’t have a superstar on the team, but we have a lot of depth and we’ve had seven different kids score 15 or more points in a game already this season," the coach said. The starting lineup for the Eagles will likely include Matt Bunyan (5-foot-10), Chris Judd (6-0), Curt Studebaker (6-3), Clay McCullough (6-2) and Brian Krider (6-4). Bunyan and Krider, along with Adrian Miller off the bench, are all averaging in double figures for the Eagles, while Studebaker is also averaging close to 10 points. “We like to get the ball up and down the court on offense and we’ll play a number of multiple defenses, using the bodies that we have,” Gurrado said, adding. ’T’ve got a really good group and we’ve been able to get the job done, especially by winning the close games. ” The Eagles have defeated Whitko (79-74), Fort Wayne Badger crossing!

Elmhurst (82-51), Angola (73-63) and Bellmont (76-70), while dropping contests to Warsaw (74-58) and Manchester (91-61). The only common opponent, thus far, for the Warriors and the Eagles were the undefeated Tigers of Warsaw. Wawasee suffered a 54-44 loss to the Tigers on December 7. Goshert, who has seen his squad beat Fairfield, DeKalb, Triton and Carroll and lose to Mishawaka. Concord and Warsaw. is still looking for more consistent play on the offensive end of the court. “We've made some strides, but we still need to have more consistent play with our ballhandling, rebounding, and our reading of opponent’s defenses," heemphasized. "We re looking to have a good effort on Friday to hopefully build some more momentum heading into the Christmas break,” he added. Gurrado, whose roster boasts seven seniors among the 13 players on the list, is concerned about the shooting ability of the Warriors “They shoot the ball well and we're going to have to make sure that we pressure their shooters and get to them. We re also going to have to stay out of foul trouble,” the coach

predicted. Mickley is currently pacing the Warriors in scoring, at 15 points-per-game, while Garland is next at just over 14 ppg. Sophomore Mike Ferverda has provided scoring pop from the pines, as the 6-2 reserve is scoring just over 10 ppg. Haab is averaging 9 ppg, while Newcomer (8 ppg) and Lambert (5 ppg) round out the top scorers for the squad. With Haab saddled with foul trouble much of the game against Carroll, Goshert received some steady play from his bench, a trait he is looking to continue. "We’ve gotten excellent play from (Mike) Ferverda and last week Thanh (Tran) and Matt (Wilkinson) gave us good efforts. We’re going to need more of that the rest of the season," remarked Goshert. The fifth-year coach added that junior reserve guard Aaron Sincroft, who missed the Carroll game, will be sidelined for an indefinite period with stress fractures in his foot. ‘‘We’ve made some improvements, but we still have more strides to make and we re hoping to have some momentum to come back with after the break for the important second half of the season,” Goshert concluded.
