South Education Center begins healing process after shooting
By RAYMOND T. RIVARD
ray.rivard@apgecm.com
South Education Center re-
opened Feb. 4, three days after a
shooting claimed a student’s life
outside the Richfield school’s
doors.
The school is welcoming stu-
dents back, “if they are ready to
come back,” Intermediate Dis-
trict 287 Superintendent Sandy
Lewandowski said during a
press conference held Wednes-
day, the day after the shooting.
As Lewandowski and other
officials took turns at the podi-
um, the school and surrounding
community was just beginning
to come to grips with a tragedy
that took the life of 15-year-
old Jahmari Rice and sent a
17-year-old student to the hos-
pital in critical condition.
“This week we experienced a
tragedy unlike anything we have
encountered before,” South Ed-
ucation Center Principal Deb
Carlson-Doom said in a letter
sent to students and families
Wednesday. “We all will need
time and resources to process
the trauma from yesterday’s
events.”
Rice had recently transferred
to the school after attending
Richfield High School.
“While a senseless act of vio-
A crowd gathers to remember Jahmari Rice the evening of Feb. 3, at a memorial

reopened to students the following day.
lence in our community and
the loss of life are always trau-
matic, it is made worse by the
fact that Jahmari once walked
our halls, played on our sports
fields, sat in our classrooms and
was known and loved by many,”
Richfield Public Schools said in
a statement.

students – an 18-year-old and a
19-year-old – were arrested in
Minneapolis the evening of the
shooting, but charges have not
yet been announced.

Meanwhile, the South Edu-
cation Center and Richfield
Schools communities are be left
to process the shocking violence.
South Education Center is
part of Intermediate School
District 287, a group of “trau-
ma-responsive and healing-cen-
tered” schools serving 11 mem-
ber districts in the west metro,
including Brooklyn Center,
Eden Prairie, Edina, Hopkins,
Orono, Osseo, Richfield, Rob-
binsdale, St. Louis Park, Way-
zata and Westonka.

“We have a very diverse popu-
lation of students based on dis-
ability, based on race, based on
socioeconomic situations. Each
of those students may require
very customized approaches,”
Lewandowski said of the crisis
response.
In her letter, Doom said that
mental-health clinicians from
Hennepin County will be on
hand to provide 1:1 support to
students. Additionally, therapy
dogs will be available, and there
will be small-group circles and
community-building oppor-
tunities as the healing process
continues, she noted.
“Our students and their fami-
lies are hurting,” Lewandowski
said. “Our staff are hurting. ...
The trauma they experienced
will be with them the rest of
their lives. It will take our school
community time to grieve and
time to heal.”
While that process continues,
a return to normal routines will
also benefit students and staff,
she said, though “we will be
flexible to support all of our stu-
dents’ needs and those of their
families.”
Social workers, outreach
workers, counselors and family
liaisons are also being mobilized
in Richfield Schools, the district
noted in its statement.

The education community
will not be alone in the grief
response, Henthorne said
Wednesday. “The superinten-
dent and I talked yesterday and
we’re here to provide any re-
sources that we can, whether it’s
through our faith community or
through our police department,
to help the families of those vic-
tims,” he said.
Added Mayor Maria Regan
Gonzalez, “I’m connecting with
the members in the community
and the families impacted. If
you are struggling, please reach
out to your neighbors, please
reach out to your friends and
family.”
Calling Richfield “a close-
knit community,” Richfield
Schools Superintendent Steve
Unowsky said in his district’s
letter, “Whatever you are feel-
ing, please know that you are
not alone.”
In that letter, Richfield
Schools staff shared memories
of Rice, who had begun attend-
ing South Education Center just
days before the shooting.
“I have had the honor of
knowing Jahmari for several
years,” said Christina Haddad
Gonzalez, Director of Student
Support Services. “His smile

My meeting
with a Black
Olympic hero
The intersection of
the Olympics underway
in Beijing, China this
month, with Black His-
tory Month, recalls an oc-
casion when I was at the
crossroads of both.
The central character
was Jesse Owens, the icon-
ic Black American track
and field athlete. My role
was that of an intrepid
journalist in upstate New
York. In 1968, I was as-
signed to interview the su-
perstar who was the hero
of the Summer Olympics
in 1936. He was, at the
time, touring the country
in support of the newly-
developed Special Olym-
pics, an American-based
athletic competition for
youths with disabilities.
The nascent organiza-
tion could not have cho-
sen a better spokesperson.
Owens, a 22-year-old Ohio
State University athlete,
starred in the Berlin games
staged under the watchful
eye of Adolf Hitler. He
used the event to spotlight
the Nazi regime, centered
around his promotion of
anti-Semitism and racial
bias. But it turned out to
be a showcase for Owens,
America, and Black ath-
letes.
Owens, one of 18 Black
athletes on the U.S. dele-
gation to Berlin, captured
four gold medals in run-
ning and jumping events,

years. Scorned by Hitler,
his triumphs were a set-
back to the Führer’s de-
sire to extol Aryan superi-
ority and denigrate racial
and religious minorities, a
practice that, unfortunate-
ly, still persists in different
forms and under varied
sobriquets like White Su-
premacy.
However, Owens did
not receive universal
admiration back in the
United States. Although
he was duly lauded for
his achievements, he still
remained, in a largely-seg-
regated nation, a second-
class citizen. As a Black
man, he was treated as
somewhat of a novelty,
earning his keep by com-
peting at races, tracks, and
other low-profile events.
By comparison, some of

Phillips, Klobuchar hear from struggling business owners

Event highlighted
challenges brought
on by the pandemic
By JASON JENKINS
jason.jenkins@apgecm.com
Third District Rep. Dean
Phillips and U.S. Sen. Amy
Klobuchar recently took part in
an online conversation to hear
about the ongoing challenges
facing many small businesses
amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
The lawmakers were joined in
the Jan. 26 discussion by entre-
preneurs who have been greatly
affected by the pandemic, in-
cluding leaders in the restau-
rant, live events and fitness in-
dustries.
“In the last few months, we’ve
heard more horrific stories of
small businesses struggling to
keep the lights on,” Phillips said.
“Representation begins with lis-
tening, but the job doesn’t end
there. Small businesses are inte-
gral to our community, and as
the COVID-19 pandemic con-
tinues into a third year, Con-
gress must extend targeted relief
to entrepreneurs and employees
whose work depends on gather-
ing.”
Among the business owners
taking part in the conversation
was YogaFit Studios owner
Ashok Dhariwal, who noted
that businesses like his in the
fitness industry were ordered
closed for seven of the past 22
months. Dhariwal said he’s tak-
en on at least $250,000 in debt
and is currently seeing a 70%
loss in sales.
And while resources like the
Paycheck Protection Program
and the Employment Retention
Tax Credit have helped, Dhari-
wal said his and many other
businesses face a long road
ahead if they want to survive.
“We, personally for our busi-
ness, think it’s going to take us

all took that route.
Meanwhile, another
world-class premiere
Black athlete, Joe Louis
was earning even greater
fame and fortune as the
world heavyweight box-
ing champion, although
he, too, had to know his
place in a segregated so-
ciety. Louis, incidentally,
also gave a beating to Nazi
Aryanism two years later,
when he achieved a histor-
ic first-round knock out of
Germany’s Max Schelling
in a heralded champion-
ship bout whose outcome
also drove the Führer to
fury.
Color coding
Over time, Owens be-
came a more celebrated
figure, but the segregated
code that surrounded him
certainly was a limiting
factor.
Owens, incidentally,
was not the only target
of Hitler’s Aryan hubris.
His revulsion of Jews
laughs.
When he went to read
the cards to introduce us,
he asked if anyone had
any reading glasses he
could borrow. A woman
in the audience took a
pair of large black plas-
tic-framed glasses out
of her purse and handed
them up to Louie. It got a
roar of laughter as soon
as he put them on.
“These are filthy!” Lou-
ie yelled, as he tried to
read the cards. Someone
handed him a napkin and
he wiped the lenses before
prompted the Olympics
Committee to remove two
highly-qualified Jewish
sprinters from a sprint re-
lay race: Sam Stoller and
Marty Glickman, who lat-
er became a leading sports
broadcaster in New York.
Owens and another
Black sprinter, Ralph
Metcalfe, replaced them
and propelled the Ameri-
can team to an easy vic-
tory. Metcalfe went on
to become a long-serving
member of Congress from
Chicago and co-founder
of the Congressional
Black Caucus.
Three decades after the
events took place, I met in
Owens’ hotel room, chat-
ting for about an hour as
he puffed cigarettes. We
took a stroll around the
facility on a warm, sunny
summer day. He appeared
to be in great physical
shape, despite the smok-
ing: indeed willowy, as he
looked like in those grainy
newsreels from the period
of his Olympic triumphs.
He was very warm and
affable to me, as a rookie
reporter.
The piece I produced
made its way into the bur-
geoning Gannett news-
putting them back on.
“Now they’re even worse!
I can’t see anything!” It
was fun to watch him take
a simple prop and put the
whole place in hysterics.
While doing his act, he
noticed a soldier in uni-
form in the audience and
began asking him ques-
tions. The soldier told
Louie he was on leave
from Iraq. Louie asked
him how things were go-
ing over there and made a
few more jokes before tell-
ing the waitress to make
sure that the bill for the
soldier’s entire table was
paper chain, where I was
working at the time, which
later launched the USA
Today newspaper. The
story was well received,
and helped propel me to a
position as a summer col-
umnist, my first venture of
that kind (and some might
wish the last).
Mitchell’s month
All of this preceded the
creation of Black History
Month in the late 1970s.
Owens, by then, was gone;
he passed away of lung
cancer at the age of 66 in
1980.
It’s too bad that the
celebratory event going
on this month, which was
jumpstarted by the efforts
of Golden Valley Council
Member John Mitch-
ell, the city’s first Black
elected official, was not
in existence during Ow-
en’s time. It would have
helped focus more atten-
tion on his accomplish-
ments and, perhaps, make
him an even more widely
accepted and financially
rewarded athlete across
racial lines.
While his name is for-
ever associated with the
Summer Olympics and
given to him. I heard later
from Scott that it wasn’t
uncommon for Louie to
do things like that.
After we finished our
portion of the show, Lou-
ie came back with more
words of encouragement
and complimented us on
the show. I made it to the
next round and got to
do one more at the hotel
ballroom, but I didn’t get
any further. It was such
a rush, though, to do a
10-minute act in front of
more than 700 people,
and I was fortunate to
meet with Louie again
the specter of racism,
the Winter Olympics are
ramping up in another
country that also has had
its share of human rights
abuses.
About a dozen U.S.
athletes in the Beijing
games are Black athletes,
headed by Erin Jackson,
the world’s top-ranked
500-meter speed skater,
seeking to improve upon
her bronze finish four
years ago. The American
contingent is among some
40 Black athletes in total,
probably a record-setting
figure in the winter event.
There have been histori-
cally few Black competi-
tors compared to a great-
er representation in the
Summer Games, drawing
on the legacy of Owens
in that unforgettable sum-
mer 86 years ago.
Owens was, to borrow
a description used by
famed New York Times
sportswriter Red Smith in
eulogizing Owens’ prize-
fighting counterpart, Joe
Louis, “a credit to his
race; the human race.”
That’s a fitting phrase to
keep in mind during this

Plymouth church’s free food pantry extends a helping hand
By KRISTEN MILLER
kristen.miller@apgecm.com
Two years ago when the pandemic
first hit, members of the Church of the
Epiphany in Plymouth decided to trans-
form their music room into a food pan-
try to help anyone in the community who
might be struggling.
“It was our church community’s re-
sponse to COVID,” said Sandy Mul-
laney, a church staff member and origi-
nal team lead for what became the Little
Free Food Pantry.
The idea was born after Mullaney saw
how a city’s Lions Club transformed the
Little Free Libraries into food pantries,
trading in the free books for free food, in
response to the growing needs brought
on by the effects of the pandemic.
Thinking that was such a great idea,
Mullaney said she was overcome with a
need to take action, calling it a “Holy
Spirit inspiration.”
“I felt I just couldn’t NOT do it,” she
said.
Since the congregation wasn’t using its
choir room due to the pandemic, a group
of volunteers began stocking it with
shelf-stable food and hygiene products.
They used the inventory to then stock
two large plastic bins outside the church
every morning and afternoon, making
food available to anyone in need 24/7,
no questions asked.
Some of the items include quick-to-fix
meals, peanut butter and jelly, canned
chicken and tuna, crackers, toilet paper,

and women’s hygiene products.
Volunteers also pack laundry pods,
along with hygiene and dental packs
filled with soap, shampoo, toothbrushes
and toothpaste, which people really seem
to appreciate, she said.
People also began donating pet food.
“If people are struggling, they are
struggling with their pet food as well,”
Mullaney said, noting how important
pets are to people, especially when they
are going through hard times.
Early on, when supplies ran low, vol-
unteers started a GoFundMe fundraiser,
which raised $1,000.
Finally a local Doctor is helping cancer survivors live lives free
from the pain and constant suffering of peripheral neuropathy
Irreversible is not a word you
want to hear from your Doctor, but
it's a common one if you've been
diagnosed with Chemotherapy-
Induced Peripheral Neuropathy.
Elliot S of Wayzata survived
testicular cancer only to be living
life in constant pain. He felt as
though he were walking on pins and
needles, becoming weaker and
weaker every day. "I was beginning
to be worried that one day I would
be wheelchair bound."
Nearly half of patients who
undergo chemotherapy will
develop Chemotherapy-Induced
Peripheral Neuropathy or CIPN.
Chemotherapy meds travel
throughout the body and attack
cancer cells; sadly they can also
cause severe damage to healthy
nerves. CIPN can begin within
weeks of starting treatment and can
worsen as treatment continues. A
high number of really unfortunate
people will be forced to endure the
symptoms associated with CIPN for
months, or even years after they've
completed chemo.
When asked how CIPN was
affecting his quality of life he
responded, "It was difficult to even
walk up and down stairs and do
things we usually take for granted."

of Epiphany in Plymouth, 4900 Nathan Ln. N.,
for anyone struggling with food insecurities.
A separate donation drop box is also located
outside for those seeking to support the ministry.
LEFT: Molly Schaaf, the current team lead,
stocks shelves for the Little Free Food Pantry at
the Church of Epiphany in Plymouth. The church
has been making food and other necessities avail-
able to those in need throughout the pandemic.
“We have a lot of strong givers from
the community,” she said.
Eventually, they applied for and re-
ceived a $5,000-grant from the Episcopal
Church of Minnesota.
“That was really helpful in stretching
our funds,” she said.
They were also able to increase their
buying power by getting approved to
purchase food through a food bank.
In addition to offering assistance in the
northwestern suburbs, the parish learned
of need at St. Nicholas Church in Rich-
field among their Hispanic congrega-
tion, Mullaney said.
The most common symptoms
include:
Pain, tingling, burning,
weakness, numbness in arms,
hands, legs or feet
Sudden, sharp, stabbing or
shocking pain sensations
Clumsiness and trouble using
hands to pick up objects or
fasten clothing
Loss of balance and falling
For some, the nerves recover
over time. For most, the nerve
damage is 'irreversible.' Elliot had
been told just that by a series of
Doctors and specialists.
Essentially they could fix the
cancer but couldn't fix the damage
done by the drugs used to cure his
cancer.
Then Elliot made a call to
Dr Christopher Johnson of
Everybody Healing Center. Dr
Johnson is using the time-tested
science of acupuncture and a
technology originally developed
by NASA that assists in
increasing blood flow and
expediting recovery and healing
to treat this debilitating disease.
After a series of treatments
Elliot was taking stairs with
stride! "We have a lake house and
it's up stairs. This morning I
walked right down the stairs and
got in the car," Elliot shared.
Call (612)567-2270
sailor.mnsun.com
Volunteers now deliver food, laundry
and hygiene items to them on a monthly
basis.
“We’re really grateful to connect with
the group in Richfield,” as their resources
were limited, Mullaney said.
While the Little Free Food Pantry was
meant to be a temporary ministry, the
need remains just as evident.
“We have not seen the need slow
down,” said Mullaney, noting that situa-
tions have been further challenged by in-
flation and the expiration of COVID-19
relief funding.
“We hear and see people continuing
to struggle ... and many will say ‘I never
expected to find myself in this position,’
and that their grateful to find help,” Mul-
laney shared. She has also witnessed
people who once used the Little Free
Food Pantry pay it forward once they’ve
become more financially stable.
And the volunteers at the Church of
Epiphany are grateful to be able to help
fill the gap for those in the midst of their
struggles. However, as they approach the
two-year anniversary, they are seeing
funds dwindle, which is why the church
is appealing to the greater community
to help support their continued efforts
through another GoFundMe fundrais-
er.
Checks and cash donations along with
food and supplies can be taken on site at
The Church of the Epiphany - Little Free
Food Pantry 4900 Nathan Ln. N. Plym-
outh, MN 55442 or go to their GoFund-
me page, https://gofund.me/3639cdce.
"I remember thinking 'that's
becoming mighty easy for me,'
I didn't have to hold on to
the hand rail or anything!
It's life changing to have
this mobility back!"
Again and again, we meet with
patients who were once diagnosed
as 'untreatable' or 'incurable' but
after receiving Dr Johnson's
treatments, patients are now living
lives free from pain and suffering.
For over 5 years he has been
reversing the effects of CIPN and
other varieties of Peripheral
Neuropathy, including those
caused by diabetes without
invasive surgeries that come with
uncomfortable side effects.
If you've recently beat cancer
only to find that you're living your
life in constant pain and
discomfort or you're struggling
with the same symptoms as a
result of either Idiopathic
Neuropathy or Diabetic
Neuropathy, Dr Johnson and the
incredible team at Everybody
Healing Center can help!
Dr Johnson is once again
accepting new patients but only
for a limited time. These spots fill
up fast and will be available on a
first call, first serve basis. So call
(612)567-2270 now to schedule a
consultation.

Sign up for DIY maple tree tapping in Wayzata

By JASON JENKINS
jason.jenkins@apgecm.com
Wayzata’s springtime maple
tree tapping tradition is just
around the corner.
The activity from the city’s
Parks and Trails Board – which
in past years has kicked off with
a how-to class in Wayzata’s Big
Woods Park Preserve – will be
mostly a do-it-yourself experi-
ence in 2022 due to the COV-
ID-19 pandemic.
Those interested in participat-
ing can sign up on the city’s web-
site to reserve a set of tree tap-
ping equipment for $20, with $15
being refunded if supplies are
returned in the same condition
when loaned. There is a limited
number of spots, so those who
are interested are encouraged to
peratures are below freezing at
night and above freezing during
the day. The fluctuation in tem-
perature creates the pressure for
the sap to rise into the tree, which
should be at least 12 inches in di-
ameter or larger to be tapped. A
good tree can produce around 25
gallons of sap in a single season,
which can last anywhere from
three to six weeks.
Syrup is created by boiling
and reducing the sap, which re-

At the end of the process, par-

maple syrup. How much syrup
is produced will depend on the
amount of sap collected, as it
takes around 10 gallons of sap to
produce one quart of syrup. On
average, a maple tree will produce
10-20 gallons of sap each spring.
Maple tree tapping is common-

was bright and spirit kind,
generous and loving.”
“I know that he loved
football, he loved to be
with his friends and was
respected in the hearts of
the school here in Rich-
field,” Regan Gonzalez
said. “He should have
had a lifetime of joy, hap-
piness and growth ahead
of him.”
School safety,
mental health
Although the shoot-
ing occurred outside the
doors of South Educa-
tion Center, Lewandows-
ki on Wednesday was
asked about the decision
to eliminate metal detec-
tors from the school a
couple of years ago. She
said the move was made
for the sake trust and un-
derstanding in student
relationships, with an em-
phasis on mental health.
When asked whether
the school would con-
sider reinstalling metal
detectors, Lewandowski
said, “In a situation like
this, we review every-
thing. What we know
works is a trauma-sensi-
tive relationship and that
type of approach for our
students. So, that’s our
biggest focus right now –
it’s on what our students
need.”
Intermediate District
287 favors a model that
focuses on mental health,
the superintendent not-
ed.
“It’s a model that was
best for our students or
our families,” she said.
“So we have hired a num-
ber of what we have en-
titled as ‘safety coaches,’
and have them positioned
in those buildings. That’s
not to say we don’t work
closely with local police.
Whenever a need arises,
we call 911 and we work
with each of those local
departments.”
But the district needs
more mental health sup-
port, according to Le-
wandowski.
“We do not have the
kind of support on an on-
going basis to meet those
needs,” she said. “It’s a
goal of this legislative
session and part of the
governor’s budget to fo-
cus on that. We certainly
support that and heartily
endorse any kind of help
we can get to provide the
students with what they
need.”
Lewandowski had
more assuring words re-
garding the current task
of healing.
“I can tell you,” she
said, “we have some of
the best support systems
and mental health pro-
fessionals and resourc-
es available to help us
through this tragedy.”

Minnesota firefighters find relief in $4M investment

By KRISTEN MILLER
kristen.miller@apgecm.com
No one can deny the dangers
firefighters encounter regularly
when responding to fires and
other emergencies. While train-
ing is critical for safety, the long-
term health impacts of the job
are often overlooked.
That is why fire departments
across the state are particularly
grateful for the advocacy of the
Minnesota Firefighter Initiative
(MnFIRE) and the state legisla-
ture for the Hometown Heroes
Assistance Program, which ded-
icates $4 million over the next
biennium to ensure firefighters
across the state have access to
the education, prevention and
care needed to handle a cardiac,
emotional trauma or cancer di-
agnosis.
“There is a moral impera-
tive to firefighting, the public
expects us to put ourselves in
harm’s way to protect them,”
said Wayne Kewitsch, executive
director of MnFIRE. “It is part
of the job, but that doesn’t mean
that we can’t do everything pos-
sible to mitigate and minimize
those risks.”
Approximately 90% of fire-
fighters in Minnesota are vol-
unteer or paid-on-call and they
typically don’t have access to an
employee assistance program.
The Hometown Heroes Assis-
tance Program will give every
firefighter in Minnesota access
to ongoing training on how to
prevent and minimize their risks
in all areas of physical and men-
tal health, this includes expand-
ed emotional trauma resources,
and up-to-$20,000 critical ill-
The Minnesota Firefighter Initiative awarded four legislators its coveted bronze
axe at an event in St. Paul Jan. 18 to commemorate their leadership in the fight for
firefighter health and wellness. Pictured are Rep. Cheryl Youakim (DFL-Hopkins),
Sen. Jeff Howe (R-Rockville), Sen. Steve Cwodzinski (DFL-Eden Prairie) and Rep
Melissa Hortman (DFL-Brooklyn Park).
ness policy, and ongoing health
and wellness training - all at no
cost.
The program also provides
education for medical providers
in the unique challenges that
firefighters face and how they
can help screen their firefighter
patients to discover and treat
those conditions early.
Prior to this legislation, “the
overall investment in firefight-
ing in our state was incredibly
low,” said Steve Baker, battalion
chief with the Plymouth Fire
Department, adding that $4
million is a great start.
Baker talked about the chang-
es taking place in the fire service
- everything from how firefight-
(SUBMITTED PHOTO)
ers are looking at health and
wellness to recruitment and re-
tention.
“We want to make sure we’re
providing what these firefighters
need” when it comes to mental
health, cancer prevention and
cardiac health, Baker said, add-
ing that firefighting is inherently
dangerous, aside from the risks
posed battling fires and re-
sponding to other emergencies.
Just the sheer shock to the
body when going from “a dead
sleep to go” in the middle of the
night can be very hard particu-
larly to the heart, he said.
According to the National
Fire Protection Association,
more than 68% of firefighters
will develop some form of can-
cer in their lifetimes. Addition-
ally, heart disease remains the
No. 1 killer of firefighters na-
tionwide and is by far the lead-
ing cause of line-of-duty deaths
in the fire service.
Firefighters also have much
higher rates of emotional dis-
tress than the general popula-
tion – particularly in the areas
of sleep disorders, depression,
substance abuse, post-traumatic
stress disorder and suicidal ide-
ation/action.
“It’s hard for people to envi-
sion what first-responders go
through,” Baker said. “We see a
lot of things most people don’t
see - or need to see - and once
you see them, you can’t unsee
them.”
Plymouth is also very grate-
ful to the training MnFIRE has
provided as well as all of their
initiatives, Baker said.
“We’re just really grateful to
be able teach our people a better
way to be healthy on the job,”
he said.
In January, MnFIRE award-
ed four legislators its coveted
bronze axe at an event in St.
Paul to commemorate their
leadership in the fight for fire-
fighter health and wellness. They
were State Sen. Steve Cwodzin-
ski (DFL-Eden Prairie), Rep.
Cheryl Youakim (DFL-Hop-
kins), House Speaker Rep. Me-
lissa Hortman (DFL-Brooklyn
Park), and Sen. Jeff Howe (Re-
publican-Rockville).
About MnFIRE
MnFIRE was formed in 2016
by three Twin Cities fire chiefs -
former Eden Prairie Fire Chief
George Esbensen, Richfield
Fire Chief Mike Dobesh and St.
Louis Park Deputy Fire Chief
John Wolff - as a means to sup-
port firefighters through critical
wellness training.
As president of the MN State
Fire Chiefs Association at the
time, Esbensen realized how
many firefighter funerals he was
attending across the state - the
majority of which were not in
the line of duty, but from car-
diac and cancer issues.
Since then, MnFIRE has been
dedicated to providing Minne-
sota’s firefighters with the re-
sources they need to prioritize
and protect their health. The
statewide advocacy organiza-
tion focuses on the three health
problems most commonly ex-
perienced by those in the fire
service: cardiovascular disease,
emotional trauma and cancer.
The organization also
launched a 24-hour peer sup-
port hotline for firefighters
struggling with mental health
issues in 2018.
While the Minnesota fire
service receives “excellent sup-
port across the state,” more can
always be done, Kewitsch said.
“Support your local fire depart-
ment, thank your legislators for
their support of the fire service
via the Hometown Heroes As-
sistance Program and urge their
continued support.”

believe the general feeling
of all the caucus attendees
was that we have a truly
exemplary group of peo-

next Minnesota governor

about the quality of life

Kyllo shared.
Chris Romansky, chair
of the DFL Senate said
there was a “solid turn-
out” in the contactless
caucus with 300 people
participating by sending
in forms which were on
par with turnouts from
2010 (301 people) and
2014 (318 people) which
were comparable, non-
presidential years. He
noted 2018 was higher be-

about as well as expect-
ed,” he said. “We fairly
successfully pivoted from
in-person in a two-week
period and got the word
out. ... We had only
around 20 people use the
drop-off site, so we were
able to get similar turnout
while preventing a large
group meeting near the
peak of omicron. Early
assessment, it seems like a
strong success.
“Many people were in-
terested in the Hennepin
County Attorney race
and the four candidates
did a solid job of driving
delegates to the caucus.”
They are Mary Mo-
riarty, Saraswati Singh,
Simon Trautmann and
Ryan Winkler.
“Some common themes
from resolutions to the
DFL platform coming in
were climate-related (elec-
tric vehicles, green energy,
etc.), legalizing marijua-
na, pulling money out of
politics and universal sin-

Armstrong Nordic
boys skiing crowned its
first Northwest Suburban
Conference sprint relay
champion Jan. 31 at Hy-
land Lake Reserve in the
first year with the event’s
addition to the tourna-
ment.
Senior Thomas White-
house and sophomore
Boden Sundell claimed
the sprint relay conference
title in 12 minutes, 57.67
seconds to make the all-
conference team, joining
juniors Alex Omodt and
Noah Breker who both
finished in the top 24 in
the pursuit.
The boys finished fifth
as a team overall with a
394 (159 sprint relay, 235
pursuit).
Maple Grove won the
team title with a 421 (138
sprint relay, 283 pursuit),
and Champlin Park was
second with a 406 (150
sprint relay, 256 pursuit).
Coon Rapids was third
with a 404 (144 sprint re-
lay, 260 pursuit), and Elk
River was fourth with a
397 (132 sprint relay, 265
pursuit).
Whitehouse and Sun-
dell finished ahead of the
other all-conference sprint
relays – Rogers’ Henry
Pulling and Nick Man-
thei (second, 12:40.9),
Spring Lake Park’s Art
Duncan and Milo Keyes
(third, 16:01.63), Cham-
plin Park’s Chase Poston
and Sam Kyes (fourth,
13:02.1), Osseo’s AJ Mill-
er and Gabriel Arends
(fifth, 13:26.14) and Coon
Rapids’ Albi Ludwig and
Lachlan Demmer (sixth,
13:48.3).
Omodt ended up third
overall in the pursuit in
28:02.6 with the third-
fastest classic time of
14:58.4 and the third-
fastest freestyle time of
13:04.1. Blaine’s Ben
Lewis won the pursuit in
26:47.9 (14:15.9 classic,
12:32 freestyle), and Ma-
ple Grove’s Myles Brown
was second in 27:55.6
(14:52.9 classic, 13:02.7
freestyle).
Breker also made all-
conference with an eighth-
place finish in 29:08.6.
Breker had the fifth-fast-
est classic time of 15:27.1,
and he had the 10th-best
freestyle time of 13:41.5.
Junior Matthew Swee-
ney was next on the team
with a 29th-place finish in
the pursuit, good for an
honorable mention. Swee-
ney finished in 31:28.8
(17:03.8 classic, 14:24.9
freestyle).
Junior Haakon Hanson
was 50th to complete the
pursuit team scoring, fin-
ishing in 36:25.9 (20:01.9
classic, 16:24 freestyle).
and freshman Nate Ma-
jewski took 16th out of 22
teams in the sprint relay in
15:50.84.
The top 24 pursuit ski-
ers all made all-confer-
ence. The Section 6 Meet
begins at 9:30 a.m. Thurs-
day, Feb. 10, back at Hy-
land Lake Reserve. The
sprint relay is an event this
season, counting toward
the team’s final score. The
top two teams at sections
make state.
Individually, the fastest
sprint relay not on an ad-

and the top four pursuit

Edina High’s boys aquatics
team needs just one more vic-
tory for the Lake Conference
title, but that win will have to
come against the league’s other
undefeated team, Eden Prairie.
That meet will be at 5:30
p.m. Friday, Feb. 11, in the
Art Downey Aquatic Center
at Edina’s south View Middle
School.
Edina’s win over Wayzata
began with a victory in the 200-
yard medley relay. Jiarui Xue,
Kai Taft, Patrick Horton and
Rohan D’Souza Larson swam
1:38.42. Wayzata took second
with Nathan Carr, Ethan Li,
Gray Sisco and John Kirchner.
In the 200-yard freestyle,
Edina was first and second
with Matthew Walker and
Max Dow. Walker’s winning
time was 1:45.18. Third place
went to Wayzata’s Matt Gen-
dreau.
The 200 individual medley
was another good event for
Edina as the freshman ace,
Xue, won in 1:58.04. Horton
from Edina and Arthur Wei
from Wayzata finished second
and third.
Edina went 1-2-3 in the 50
freestyle with Mikey Thurk,
D’Souza Larson and Nico
Leibert. Thurk’s time was
21.75 seconds.
Wayzata took three of the
top four spots in diving with
Nicholas Haseman first, Hen-
ry Ross third and Wyatt Zarns
fourth. Edina’s Jay Lebakken
placed second.
Taft and Walker from Edina
took first and second in the 100
butterfly and Wayzata’s Jason
Maroon was third. Taft’s time
was 52.29 and Walker finished
a close second in 54.34.
Edina finished 1-2-3 in the
100 freestyle with Thurk, Dow
and Leibert. Getting ready to
push for the state title, Thurk
swam 47.96.
In the 500 freestyle, Edina’
Xue was blazing fast, finish-
ing first in 4:43.50. Brennan
Hughes of Edina was second
and Wayzata’s Will Kirven
placed third.
Edina wrapped up the meet
win by taking first and second
places in the 200 freestyle relay.
Thurk, Leibert, Bob Zhang
and Yue won in 1:29.13. Sec-
ond in 1:29.51 was the four-
some of Dow, D’Souza Lar-
son, Walker and Hughes.
Wayzata was third with Adam
Liu, Leo Kenigsberg, Maroon
and Gendreau.
Edina swam exhibition only
in the final three events, which
allowed Wayzata to make the
final score close.
Trojan eighth-grader Na-
than Carr, one of Lake swim-
ming’s future stars, won the
100 backstroke in 55.05. Wei
and Sisco were second and
third.
Wayzata’s Li was first in the
100 breaststroke in 1:02.40,
with teammates Max Gjerve
and Kevin Dai second and
third.
Wayzata’s winning 400 free
relay team of Carr, Gendreau,
Liu and Kirchner had a time
of 3:23.50. Edina had two
fast exhibition times - 3:19.69
by Thurk, Taft, Hughes and
Will Clausman and 3:20.79
by Dow, Horton, Walker and
Logan Sinclair. All eight of
Edina’s swimmers on these two
relay teams are seniors.

Wayzata High sews up No. 2 seed in section hockey

Trojan girls are
sharp in beating
Skippers 6-3
By JOHN SHERMAN
john.sherman@apgecm.com
Wayzata’s quest for the
second seed in Section
6AA girls hockey was re-
alized when the Trojans
closed the 2021-22 regular
season with a 6-3 victory
over Lake Conference ri-
val Minnetonka Feb. 5.
“Minnetonka has so
many girls who are dan-
gerous with the puck on
their stick,” Wayzata head
coach Taylor Williamson
said after the game. The
one thing Minnetonka
didn’t have was Sloane
Matthews. The Wayzata
senior captain willed a
Trojan victory with a hat
trick. She surpassed the
100-goal mark earlier this
season and is Wayzata’s
all-time leading scorer.
“Sloane has been the
best player on the ice every
game,” Williamson said.
“She is focused on being a
great leader and loves the
game of hockey for what
it is. I am so proud to be
her coach. She’s really a
game-changer.”
By the 0:14 mark of the
second period, Matthews
already had two unas-
sisted goals against Min-
netonka. He third goal
came at the 16:51 mark
in the third period after
an empty-net goal by her
linemate, Mallory Cof-
fin, had put the Trojans
in front 6-3. Coffin had
two goals in the game and
Olivia Reem also lit the
lamp for the Trojans. Ta-
tum Pfleider, Sam Mathe,
Kieran Fults and Coffin
had assists for Wayzata.
Trojan goaltender An-
nika Lavender stopped
27 of 30 shots on net,
winning her duel against
Minnetonka’s outstand-
ing senior goalie, Sophia
Johnson.
Goals for Minnetonka
were scored by Lindzi
Avar, captain Grace Sadu-
ra and ninth-grader Ruby
Rauk. Skipper assists
were by Elly Klepinger
and captain Olivia La-
Roche.
Minnetonka was called
for three penalties and
Wayzata took two.
Wayzata (16-8-1) enters
the Section 6AA playoffs
against Hopkins/St. Lou-
is Park at 5 p.m. Saturday,
Feb. 12, at Plymouth Ice
Center.
“As the second seed, we
have one more chance to
play a home game,” Wil-
liamson said.
After Saturday’s round,
the action moves to Pa-
rade Ice Garden in Min-
neapolis for the semifinals
and finals.
If successful against
Hopkins/Park, Wayzata
will play either No. 3
Benilde-St. Margaret’s or
No. 6 Minneapolis United
in the semifinals at 8 p.m.
Wednesday, Feb. 16. The
finals, which will most
likely feature No. 1 seed
Edina, are set for 7 p.m.
Friday, Feb. 18, at Parade.

The Wayzata High girls
basketball team enters the
lions’ den at 7 p.m. Friday,
Feb. 11, at Hopkins Lind-

Conference test against
No. 1-ranked Hopkins.
Hopkins is not only

third-ranked team in the
nation with a 16-1 record.
The Royals only loss was

“We might not have

for the STMA match, but

a chance to evaluate what
we are doing well and what
we need to work on.”
In an earlier meeting
with Hopkins this season,
Wayzata lost by double
digits. The difference this
time is that Wayzata will
have three-time All-Lake
guard Mara Braun, who
missed the first meeting
with an injury.
“Mara is back in the
groove now and getting
better every game,” Stew-
art said. “Offensively, the
girls are finding each other
in good spots.”
Wayzata won twice last
week to improve to 14-4 on
the season. The Trojans are
in fourth place in the Lake
standings with a 4-3 record.
Hopkins is 7-0, while Min-
netonka and Eden Prairie
are tied for second at 4-2.

Skiers start out
when the temp
is less than zero
By JOHN SHERMAN
john.sherman@apgecm.com
“Less than zero” was the
theme for the first run of
the Lake Conference Nor-
dic Boys Skiing Meet Feb.
2 at Hyland Lake Reserve
in West Bloomington.
The windchill made
it so cold that athletes’
faces were literally hurt-
ing in the morning. When
the temperature rose to 3
above zero by mid-after-
noon and the wind relent-
ed somewhat, the pursuit
phase of competition felt
almost like a normal win-
ter afternoon.
Wayzata took the team
championship in a close
three-way race with Eden
Prairie and Minnetonka.
Coach Andrew Hansen’s
Wayzata looked healthy
in a 69-11 Lake Confer-
ence win at Edina Feb. 3.
The Hornets had two
impressive wins, with Troy
Doroff scoring a technical
fall at 113 pounds and cap-
tain Gavin Falk recording
a pin in the heavyweight
bout. Edina’s top win-
ner, 120-pounder Landon
Nebel, was present but not
in the lineup that evening.
A team like Wayzata is
always a tough opponent
because the Trojans have
The Trojans went to
Stillwater and posted a
75-68 victory Feb. 2 with
Braun netting 24 points.
Point guard Brynn Senden
added 14 and Shannon
Fornshell scored 13. Abby
Krzewinski had eight
points to go with six each
from Jessica Oberlander
and Sophie Hawkinson.
“Stillwater is a disci-
plined team with a lot of
nice shooters,” Stewart
said. “It was a good win
on the road.”
Wayzata returned to
the Lake wars with a 70-
48 win over Buffalo Feb. 4.
Braun led five Trojans
in double figures with 17
points. Support came from
Hawkinson with 14, Sen-
den with 11 and Fornshell
and Krzewinski with 10
each. Oberlander had six.
Trojans finished with
265 points to 259 for EP
and 257 for Minnetonka.
Wayzata’s team champi-
onship was based on plac-
ing five individuals among
the Lake’s top 15.
Edina had the individ-
ual champion, junior An-
drew DeFor, who passed
Eden Prairie junior Benon
Brattebo for first place in
the pursuit race. DeFor’s
winning time was 11:47.5
and Brattebo finished in
11:52.9. Wayzata sopho-
more Daniel McCol-
lor was third in 12:45.2.

weight class. Edina gave
away forfeit points at 120,
126 and 170, giving the
Trojans an 18-0 stake in
team points.
Luke Koenen (106),
Aidan Fartacek (152),
Caleb Wald (160), Adam
Cherne (182), Chase Ul-
lom (195) and Dominic
Heim (220) scored pins for
the Trojans. Caden Wong

and Kyler Wong (145)

“Buffalo came out with
a lot of energy,” Stewart
said. “We were able to fo-

do what we do.”

onto the Nordic skiing
team two years ago as a
seventh-grader.
It took only a few weeks
for rivals in the Lake
Conference to notice the
Hopkins phenom, who
instantly jumped into
the top 10. Wednesday,
Feb. 2, at Hyland Lake
Reserve in West Bloom-
ington, Drevlow won the
Lake Conference individ-
ual title. She trailed Edi-
na senior captain Maggie
Wagner at the end of the
classic race that ended
just before noon. Wagner
skied faster than Drev-

in the morning. But with
temperatures climbing
This was the rarest of
all high school matches,
in that there were no wins
by decision.

The Feb. 10 match also
included competition
against St. Thomas Acad-
emy.
Wayzata thumped the
Cadets 54-24, while Edina
lost a 45-27 decision to the
Cadets.
Koenen, Caden Wong
and Kyler Wong pinned
about the offensive suc-
cess, “We were able to
spread the floor, and that
gave gaps.”
While this year’s varsity
players are having suc-
slowly toward the zero
mark in the afternoon, it
was Drevlow’s turn, and
in the pursuit portion
of the competition she
bested Wagner 13:22.0
to 13:58.3 for the overall
title.
Eden Prairie won the
relay competition on the
way to its high score of
265. Hopkins finished at
255 to tie Wayzata for sec-
ond place.
Wayzata’s highlight
was a fourth-place finish
by sophomore Audrey
Parham, who skied 14:41
in the pursuit race. Min-
netonka’s leader, junior
Elena Hicks, skied 15:46.2
in pursuit to take sixth
place overall.

were senior Diane Meyer

most notably a pin by
Anthony Nichols in the
106-pound bout. Liam
Holmberg added a pin
in only 50 seconds of the
152-pound bout. Owen
Hipps had a 9-4 deci-
sion win at 138 pounds.
Captain Brody Perry and

victories for coach Josh
