Phillips leads call for federal transportation funds

By MIKE HANKS
mike.hanks@apgecm.com
As a bus rapid transit
line from Minneapolis to
Burnsville nears comple-
tion, suburban leaders are
eager to develop similar
projects around the Twin
Cities, and are looking for
federal funding to make it
happen.
With Metro Transit’s Or-
ange Line Bus Rapid Tran-
sit service in its final stages
of preparation, elected of-
ficials were among those
calling for federal funding
to improve transportation
options throughout the
metro area, while improv-
ing the environment.
U.S. Rep. Dean Phillips
is lobbying for approxi-
mately $4.5 billion in fed-
eral funding for transpor-
tation improvements to
roads and bridges, as well
as public transportation
options such as the Or-
ange Line. Standing near a
future Orange Line stop in
Bloomington, which con-
nects to Richfield through
a new tunnel under Inter-
state 494, Phillips said that

connects downtown Min-
neapolis to Bloomington’s
Mall of America. With
limited stops between
downtown Minneapolis
and Burnsville, the Orange
Line will feature frequent
buses running back and
forth all day, and on week-
ends.
“Suburban leaders want
rapid transit,” said Patty
Acomb, the Minnesota
House representative for
District 44B, representing
cities in the west metro.
To build a transit system
at the speed demanded by
suburban residents, fed-

have a bipartisan opportu-

Minnesota, is published weekly by
APG of East Central Minnesota,

Now is the time to amend our Constitution
Gratitude – immense
gratitude – is what I felt
on Constitution Day.
Two hundred and thirty-
four years ago, a group of
historians, intellectuals,
and revolutionaries ago-
nized over the wording of
what would become our
founding document. They
were creating a new form
of government, one that
would guarantee power
centered in the hands of
the citizens. Their tireless
efforts, principled debate,
and commitment to a
more perfect union paid
off; on Sept. 17, 1787, the
delegates to the Constitu-
tional Convention gath-
ered in Philadelphia and
signed the U.S. Constitu-
tion.
Immediately following
the convention, concerns
that the new Constitution
did not sufficiently protect
the individual rights of the
people ignited a discussion
over how to best enshrine
these protections. Within
four years the first 10
amendments – the Bill of
Rights – were added.
For months, my staff
and I have worked to se-

cure safe passage out of
Afghanistan for hundreds
of people. They are fleeing
a country where there is no
Bill of Rights on which to
depend for the many free-
doms which we often take
for granted here in the
United States.
Our Constitution is
our bedrock, the ultimate
law of the land. Even so,
there have been times in
our history, whether due
to a changing society, in-
terpretations by the Su-
preme Court contrary to
the will of the people, or
other necessities, when this
document has required
amendment. This is a pro-
cess both considered and
expected by the Found-
ing Fathers and enshrined
in the Constitution itself.
Since our founding, the
Constitution has been
amended 27 times.
While amending the
Constitution should not
be a task taken lightly, I be-
lieve we are at a moment in
time when an amendment
is needed to reflect the cur-
rent state of our political
system that our Founding
Fathers could never have
envisioned.
In Congress, I am on a
mission to restore Ameri-
cans’ faith in government,
and I believe one of the
best ways to accomplish
this goal would be to re-
duce the influence of big
money in our politics and
return power to the people,
where it rightfully belongs.
That is why I am a proud
supporter of House Joint
Resolution 1, a proposed
amendment to the Con-
stitution which would
give states and Congress
the ability to regulate how
campaigns are financed.
This amendment is needed
after the Supreme Court
ruled over a decade ago
to remove many of the
limits on moneyed inter-
ests. The Supreme Court
based its decision on First
Amendment protections,
ludicrously declaring that
corporations are people
and money is speech.
Since joining Congress, I
have watched with disdain
as big money buys access
and favorable policies in
Washington and effective-
ly disenfranchises millions
of Americans. According
to Issue One, just 12 in-
dividual Americans and
their spouses (six Demo-
crats and six Republicans)
have contributed $3.4 bil-
lion to federal candidates
and political groups since
2009 – accounting for
almost $1 of every $13
raised. Think about that
for a moment.
There is a constant tug
of war in Washington be-
tween the will of the peo-
ple and the demands of
special interests. Members
of Congress collectively
spend over 10,000 hours
per week, yes, per week,
in pursuit of campaign
dollars – calling donors,
attending fundraising
events, and giving prefer-
ence to lobbyists with deep
pockets. In return, well-
organized and financed
interests shell out millions
every year because they
know that money buys ac-
cess and influence in DC.
As we take the time to
reflect on our Constitu-
tion and the system of
governance our founders
designed and implemented
over 200 years ago, how
would they feel about the
legalized corruption that
has transpired in America?
I suspect they would be
aghast by the concentra-
tion of power and money
that is drowning out the
voices and needs of every-
day Americans.
The time for this amend-
ment is now. Let those who
represent you at all levels
of government know this is
important to you. Passing
and ratifying the amend-
ment is a necessary first
step to allow states and
Congress to reduce the in-
fluence of big money in our
politics. And, most of all,
be grateful that our found-
ers had the prescience to
provide the flexibility to
amend the brilliant docu-
ment they crafted to guide
our remarkable – but im-
perfect – nation.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Community Editor

St. Louis
Park voters in
Ward 3 should
participate in
election
To the Editor:
The election is just a few
weeks away, and early vot-
ing has begun as of Sept.
17. It might be tempting
for St. Louis Park residents
to overlook this election
because many seats are
uncontested, but I urge all
Ward 3 residents to vote!
There is a three-way race
for the Ward 3 City Coun-
cil seat, and there are sig-
nificant differences among
the candidates.
Sue Budd has been work-
ing for her platform of safe
and affordable housing,
racial equity and climate
justice far longer than she
has been running for office.
Sue is a doer! I have been
part of her team in St. Lou-
is Park and Senate District
46. Under her leadership,
we have taken action to
advance affordable hous-
ing projects and to remove
unfair practices with the
“crime-free, drug-free”
ordinance that caused her
son to be wrongly evicted
from Meadowbrook. Our
team has worked hard to
ensure our elected officials
lead boldly. Sue Budd will
be a bold leader to advance
an agenda for equity and
inclusion.
You don’t need to take
my word for it, however.
The League of Women
Voters is hosting a City
Council Candidate Forum
at 7 p.m. Thursday, Sept.
23, on Civic Channel 17 in
St. Louis Park. It will be
available online at www.

trip down the Mississippi
River.
KJ and Casey Millhone
completed the trip in May,
but were only recently de-
clared the official Guinness
World Record holders for
completing the 2,350-mile
journey down the entire
length of the river in 17
days, 19 hours and 46 min-
utes.
The father and daughter
hold the record with team-
mates Bobby Johnson and
Rod Price, both of Florida.
The four-person pad-
dling team, known as Team
MMZero, was joined by
a support crew that took
care of laundry, logistics,
cooking and charging
equipment.
The group surpassed the
2003 record, which was set
by two paddlers in 18 days,
four hours and 51 minutes.
Team MMZero began
its expedition April 22 at
the river’s headwaters in
Itasca State Park. By the
second day, the crew found
themselves facing their

Team MMZero holds the world record for paddling the 2,350-mile length of the Mississippi River in 17 days, 19 hours and 46 minutes. The

back and she was navigat-
ing based on instrumenta-
tion.”
“We had probably every
weather type that you can
possibly have,” Casey Mill-
hone said.
The team faced sleet,
strong winds and even a
tornado that jumped the
river a few miles north of
the paddlers at one point.
Then there was, of
course, the physical chal-
lenge. Crew members
took turns sleeping so that
they were always keeping
a steady pace. Ten hours

of work earned each pad-
dler around three hours of
sleep in the bottom of the
moving canoe.
But the obstacle that was
perhaps hardest to prepare
for was the mental toll.
“I’m an ultra marathon
paddler, so you’re body
eventually adapts. ... But
there’s no way you can
train yourself to be better
at sleep deprivation,” KJ
Millhone said.
Hallucinations became
common for some crew
members as the days went
on - all while still watching
for barges and wing dams.
“One of our topics of
conversation was to talk

about how people hallu-
cinated differently. Rod
tended to be doing home
projects and so all of a
sudden he’d be reaching
for some varnish to put on
the boat that he’s making,”
KJ Millhone said. “I var-
ied between seeing animals
like bunnies and things on
the shore to talking to dead
presidents and having po-
litical debates.”
A particular harrowing
experience came when the
paddlers unexpectedly en-
countered a whirlpool that
partially submerged their
canoe.
“Suddenly, we made a
sharp left turn. Bobby was

in front of me and now
he’s not in front of me,
and I’m like 3-feet higher
than I used to be,” Casey
Millhone said. “Bobby has
been sucked down into the
center of this 3-foot drop
of a whirlpool at the end
of this wing dam. ... He’s
completely submerged un-
derwater, so he reaches his
paddle out and pushes it
down to pop himself back
up.”
Casey Millhone then
threw her body against
the outside of the canoe,
hitting her hip against the
gunnel to get the canoe
back on course with the
current. Soon after, they
pulled over to put on dry
clothes.
The obstacles weren’t
enough to prevent the
team from reaching mile
marker zero in the Gulf of
Mexico May 10.
The experience was fa-
miliar for KJ Millhone,
who set a previous world Follow the Sun Sailor on Facebook at
record for canoeing the
river in 1980 with friend
Steve Eckelkamp. The
duo also kayaked the Pa-
cific coast of Canada to
Alaska, and attempted the
Amazon River record but
were washed out in a flood.
Steve Eckelkamp died
in 2017, and the following
year, together with Steve
Eckelkamp’s nephew Kev-
in Eckelkamp and Nate
Lastinger, KJ Millhone
attempted the Mississippi
record again, but their at-
tempt was cut short due to
a family emergency.
Not long after, KJ Mill-
hone was talking about the
experience at the dinner
table when Casey Millhone
expressed interested in re-
turning to the river to take
on the record.
“I told him that if he
was ever going to do this
again, I wanted to be on
the team,” Casey Millhone
said.
KJ said the idea of tak-
ing on the record with his
daughter was an opportu-
nity too special to pass up.
“Over that time, she ba-
sically transformed herself
into a world-class paddler,”
KJ Millhone said proudly.
The successful journey
down the Mississippi River
means that KJ Millhone,
62, is the oldest record-
holder, while Casey Mill-
hone, who finished the trip
not long before her 21st
birthday, is the youngest
female to hold the record.
“When I did this when I
was 22 in 1980, it changed
how I thought about my-
self. It made me believe that
I could accomplish things.
... My hope is that through
going something like this
- where she tested herself
at such an extreme level
and was successful - that
she would gain the same
type of confidence that I
gained,” KJ Millhone said
of Casey Millhone, who’s
currently studying sociol-
ogy at Colorado College
after graduating from
Minnetonka High School
in 2018.
“From a father’s per-
spective, it could not have
gone better.”

The man was rushed to a hos-
pital for the emergency surgery.
He allegedly identified Debing as
the person who had stabbed him,
according to police. According
to the court document, Debing
\sent threatening text messages
to the man.
During a confrontation at
the victim’s residence, the man
walked to Debing’s vehicle and
found the driver’s door open but
Debing not inside it.
Debing then rushed the man
from the rear, placed him in a
chokehold and took him to the
ground, the document alleges.
The man felt a burning sensation
in the back of his neck, and he
alleged that Debing said, “How

he wrestled the knife away from
Debing, who then fled in his
vehicle, according to the com-
plaint.
After police located and ar-
rested Debing, he reportedly
confirmed he sent text messages.
However, Debing told police the
man had approached him when
he arrived in his vehicle and had
used pepper spray against him.
Debing said he pushed the man
away and left the area but de-
nied using a knife or stabbing
the man.
Police said they found the knife
where the man had dropped it.
While police said the defendant
could describe the unique fea-
tures of the knife, he told police
it had been taken from him sev-
eral weeks earlier.

Charter charter language change

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
edged under City Council
questioning that last year’s
allegations led to the com-
mission’s review.
“That’s how it came
up,” he said. “That’s what
prompted it.”
Beckstrand added that
the allegations had been
the catalyst but asserted
that “a number of more
anecdotal matters,” which
he did identify, have also
arisen.
Brimeyer said, “I really
looked at this as telling
future councils when you
get elected you just need to
know that there’s an avenue
for people to say, ‘I think
something is wrong here.’”
Of the broad proposal,
Brimeyer said, “We just
wanted the council to know
that if you absolutely refuse
to do anything we have a
right to bring that out and
say you need to take a look
at this and here’s why.”
Although no specific
came before the St. Louis
Park City Council, Bri-
meyer said a majority of
the commission would
need to approve it. The St.
Louis Park City Council
would then need to unani-
mously approve the change
or voters would have to ap-
prove it, although, “I don’t
think any of us really want
to go there,” Brimeyer said
of the latter method.
Mayor Jake Spano, who
had been the only vote
against dismissing the com-
plaint against Mavity last
year, said he understood
the Charter Commission’s
concerns because he, too,
preferred an outside orga-
nization to investigate the
allegations.
However, Spano asked
about how to prevent op-
ponents of a particular
decision from making ac-
cusations without any va-
lidity.
Beckstrand indicated
they could weigh in after
the St. Louis Park Charter
Commission considers a
complaint.
“Absolutely, we did dis-
cuss the weaponization of
this and how that is some-
thing that is going to have
to be prevented,” he said.
Council concerns
A majority of St. Louis
Park City Council mem-
bers indicated they did not
support a requirement for
third-party investigations.
“I am comfortable with
voters being the outside
body that provides over-
sight of the city’s leader-
ship,” Councilmember
Margaret Rog said.
Rog raised concerns
about the cost for such
investigations and noted
that the part-time council
members often have other
positions that inform their
decisions. She and other
St. Louis Park City Coun-
cil members said the city
manager and city attorney
work for the city, not an in-
dividual member.
Kraft questioned the
origin of the commission’s
inquiry, adding that he did
not see anything wrong
with the way the St. Louis
Park City Council handled
the complaint last year.
“There was nothing
there,” Kraft said. “If there
had been a smidgen of
something there, I would
have been for an investiga-
tion, OK? But requiring
one without us being able
to deliberate? I’m not in fa-
vor of requiring one with-
out us having a shot at it,
taking a look at it.”
He added, “I don’t take
an oath to any of my col-
leagues. I take an oath to
uphold the Constitution
and our charter and do
right by that, and I think
we all take that quite seri-
ously.”
Councilmember Tim
Brausen said he had con-
cerns that the St. Louis Park
Charter Commission, an
unelected body, would be
in charge of responding to
complaints about council
members. The chief judge
of the county appoints St.
Louis Park Commission
members.
Councilmember Rachel
Harris noted that commis-
sion meeting minutes in-
dicate members intend to
have oversight over the St.
Louis Park City Council.
Brimeyer said the sub-
committee believes such
changes are needed to the
charter “to provide greater
oversight, transparency,
and accountability,” ac-
cording to the minutes.
Similarly, the minutes state
Commissioner Terry Dw-
yer said the subcommittee
intended “the council has
oversight so they cannot
solely police themselves.”
Meanwhile, the city at-
torney provided an opin-
ion that says state law does
not necessarily give the
Charter Commission the
type of authority over the
City Council proposed.
Harris said the St. Louis
Park Charter Commission
should ensure good city
governance but not over-
see the St. Louis Park City
Council.
Councilmember Nadia
Mohamed expressed con-
cern that a future charter
commission could have
biases against people of
color, “especially when a
body tends to not represent
the community socially,
economically, racially or
culturally.”
Mohamed said, “I’m not
saying that’s what’s hap-
pening right now, but that’s
what tends to happen a lot
of the time.”
Rog questioned whether
the commission should
continue to study the issue.
“That’s more your deci-
sion, but I can’t see why we
would continue to spend a
lot of time on delving deep
on this,” Rog said.
Spano noted the St.
Louis Park Charter Com-
mission does not need the
City Council’s permission
to recommend a change.
However. He also said no
City Council incumbents
are facing an electoral chal-
lenge this year.
Spano said, “I think
the folks that live in their
wards feel pretty confident
in their abilities to execute
their duties.”

ist after leaving a fulfilling
day job behind to pursue
her passion in watercolor.
“I love really bright and
intense color,” said Shap-
iro, whose artistic journey
has included drawing, jew-
elry making, henna body
art, hand lettering and
decorative painting.
She began watercolor in
2018, creating whimsical
and botanical patterns in-
spired by Indian, Mexican,
and Israeli art and textiles.
A lot of inspiration has
stemmed from her fam-
ily’s Jewish background
and her travels to Israel,
painting Israeli motifs and
fruit, including pomegran-
ates, which in Judaism, is
a symbol of righteousness,
knowledge, and wisdom
because it is said to have
613 seeds, each represent-
ing one of the 613 com-
mandments of the Torah.
In addition to paintings,
she will be selling book-
marks and stickers as part
of the Big Fun Dream
Club with fellow artist Kate
Greve, who creates illustra-
tions from marker and pen.
Hopkins artist Raju
Lamichhane of Raju’s Arts
will be returning for his
10th year at the fair.
A native of rural Nepal,
he is a graduate of fine arts
and specializes in newspa-
per collage art.
For years, he was a book
illustrator before switching
to making art with recycled
materials, like newspapers.
He began by making a
collage by cutting, gluing
and pasting the different
pieces of paper and was
encouraged to submit his
work in the 2009 Minne-
sota State Fair.
The following year, he
entered Mainstreet Day
and has continued since
then.
This year, Lamichhane
will have more art inspired
by Minnesota birds and
animals.
Mainstreet Day is free
and open to the public and
takes place rain or shine.

Hopkins soccer goalie is solid as ‘a Rock’

By JOHN SHERMAN
john.sherman@apgecm.com
It’s not surprising that the
sports-minded senior goalie Luci
Rock is having a great year with
the Hopkins High girls soccer
team.
At the start of the 2021 sea-
son, Rock knew she had to step
up. One of her best friends, Ol-
ivia Rivera, started in goal for
Hopkins last season. But Rivera
sidelined with a knee injury that
might keep her out all season, and
the position became Rock’s.
“We were friends in school,”
Rock said. “Olivia isn’t able to
play, but she is at all of the prac-
tices and games. She picks me up
for school every day and drives
me home after practice. I just
wish she could be more involved.”
Before games at Hopkins High
Stadium and on the road, Rivera
warms Rock up before the games.
That’s one way she stays involved.
And when Rock makes a save, Ri-
vera is among those cheering.
Rock comes from an athletic
family. Her dad, Patrick Rock, is
one of Minnesota’s premier col-
lege and high school basketball
referees. And her uncles, Reggie
and Fritz are former high school
football stars - Reggie as a quar-
terback for Cretin-Derham Hall
and Fritz as a wide receiver for
Wayzata. Luci has a younger
sister, Rubi, who stands 5-9 and
plays basketball for Hopkins. “I
wish I had some of her height,”
said Luci, who is 5-4.
“Reggie and Fritz made history
in high school football - sports
are in my bloodline,” Rock said.
“A lot of people know my dad as
Hopkins High girls soccer goalkeeper Luci Rock (1) goes up in traffic to pluck a ball
out of the air during the Royals’ 1-1 tie against Wayzata.
a referee, and he’s really good at
what he does.”
Luci Rock was not always a
goalie in soccer. “I started out as
a forward, then I moved back to
midfield,” she said. One of her
club team’s needed a goalie about
five years, so she tried it and liked
it.”
The biggest week of Rock’s
high school career came dur-
ing a five-day stretch, with two
tough Lake Conference matches.
She played brilliantly in a 1-1 tie
at Wayzata on a Tuesday night,
and then helped the Royals de-
feat Eden Prairie 3-1 in a mati-
nee match-up at Hopkins High
Stadium.
“I was nervous for the Eden

Prairie game, I’m not going to
lie,” Rock said. “I gave up a goal,
then we scored two, and I was
OK. Before the Wayzata game,
my coach, Justin Hegre, said,
‘This is just another game.’ Abby
Hoiska scored for us 37 seconds
into the first half.”
Late in the second half, Way-
zata scored the equalizer, and a
flurry of Trojan shots followed.
“The last five minutes were
exhilarating ... the most fun I’ve
ever had in soccer,” Rock said.
She saved two point blank shots,
and neither team scored in 10
minutes of overtime.
While Rock has played a big
role in Hopkins’ success this sea-
son, she is quick to give credit to
her teammates.
“I have never played with bet-
ter defenders than we have this
year,” she said. “They are amaz-
ing. I have a special connection
with Savannah Gieseke.”
Rock feels the Royals have
strong leaders with senior cap-
tains Hoiska at forward, Lizzie
Norman in the midfield and
Anna Lorinser on the back line.
“Abby scores our first goal in
most games,” Rock said. “She has
the energy and it looks like she is
running 50 miles an hour. Abby is
faster than any defender who tries
to cover her. Then we have Avery
Perry, who assists on almost every
goal. Our ninth-grade midfielder,
Xochitl Smith, is the future of
Hopkins soccer. She is our short-
est player, but she plays like she’s
6 feet tall.”
Rock has become one of the
leaders in her own right. “I am a
very social person,” she said. “My
mom used to call me a social but-
terfly.”
In a Lake Conference match
Sept. 14 at Buffalo, midfielder
Charlotte Li made the winning
shot in the Royals’ 2-1 win. “She
just nailed it,” Rock said. Laney
Kurenitz played that night and
got the win.
No matter how Hopkins does
the rest of the season, Rock has
been a standout in the net. And
also a bit of a pioneer.
“I am the only girl of color
playing goalie for a Lake Confer-
ence team,” she said. “Our team
is getting recognition in the halls
at school. People come up and tell
me they saw me playing on cable
TV [Channel 45].”

Griak Invite next up
Park will compete in the
Roy Griak Invitational on
the University of Minne-
sota’s Les Bolstad Golf
Course Friday, Sept. 24.
Griak was a longtime Go-
phers cross country and
track and field coach who
died in 2015. A Duluth na-
tive, Griak made his mark
on the local running scene
as a coach at St. Louis
Park from 1952-1963. His
cross country teams won
state titles in 1955 and
1961 and track and field
teams won state titles in
1958, 1962 and 1963. He
moved on to coach the
Gophers from 1963-1996
and remained a part of the
program for the rest of his
life, spanning 52 years of
service to the university.
His Gophers cross coun-
try teams won the Big Ten
in 1964 and 1969 and the
1968 team was runner-
up in the conference and
fourth at NCAAs. Also in
1968, the track and field
team won the Big Ten.
The largest cross coun-
try meet in the nation
was named after Griak in
1996.
The one-day event in-
cludes eight races starting
between 10:30 a.m. and
6 p.m. spanning NCAA
Division I, II and III then
two divisions of high
school races.
The Lefty Wright Boys
Maroon Race is named af-
ter longtime Griak official
and former Park coach
and administrator Ralph
Eugene “Lefty” Wright,
who died in 2013.
Wright was inducted
into the Roy Griak Invi-
tational Hall of Fame as
a charter member, as the
connection between the
two ran deep.
Wright ran for Griak
as a senior at Park before
serving as an assistant
coach for five years in the
same program.
In a profile on Wright
before his induction into
the Roy Griak Invite Hall
of Fame, he said he con-
sidered Griak a second fa-
ther figure. “He taught me
a lot about organization
and handling of young
athletes. He was one of the
all-time great coaches our
sport has ever had and I
really think he was a man
ahead of his time. He re-
ally understood the toler-
ances and workload that
an athlete could handle
and the recovery time they
needed.”
Wright was also a stand-
out hockey player for
Park, playing in the 1953
state tournament, a four-
overtime loss to eventual
state champion St. Paul
Johnson.
He took over the cross
country and track pro-
grams at Park after Griak
left for Minnesota in 1963
and spent 36 years work-
ing for the school district.
For the last 18 years of his
career, he was the athletic
director, before retiring in
1993.

Park football moves to 2-1 in complete win at Two Rivers

By JASON OLSON
jason.olson@apgecm.com
St. Louis Park (2-1) picked up
a 31-7 win at Two Rivers Friday
with another road trip to play an
unfamiliar foe.
The Orioles opened the season
at Simley and returned east of
35E for the second time in three
weeks as they won back-to-back
games scoring a season-high 31
points.
“A lot of things worked for us
– run and pass – it was a total
team effort,” Orioles coach Jason
Foster said. “From the onset, the
kids were focused, which was
nice to see.”
Quarterback Will Dvorak got
it done with his arm and legs,
including an opening 40-yard
touchdown run after the Orioles
defense forced a 3-and-out on
the game’s opening drive. Two
Rivers couldn’t capitalize on a
fumble recovery as the Orioles
defense forced another quick
3-and-out before Dvorak’s long
touchdown run.
Foster said the team put in a
good week of practice, from the
film session to the final walk-
through. “Everyone was locked
in, we had a good plan going in
and stuck to it,” Foster said as
the coaches came up with a solid
plan to contain the Two Rivers
Wing-T offense.
The Wing-T focuses on run-
ning the ball with deception and
misdirection to confuse the de-
fense. “Our defense did an awe-
some job to make sure they kept
on their keys. A lot of man-to-
man and made sure they only got
a couple of yards on us. We did a
good job staying home and not
over-pursuing the play.”
Linebackers Christian Artea-
ga and Zach Helftmann each
had seven tackles, while Henry
Bendickson led the team with
eight tackles forced one fumble.
Ezra Hudson added five tack-
les and one interception.
Just before halftime, running
back Deontez Ross, Jr. ran for a
touchdown to give the visitors a
14-7 halftime lead.
The score capped off a two-
minute offense with 14 seconds
to go after Two Rivers cut the
lead in half.
“It really was a perfect storm
for our offense to score late,”
kicks this time from 25-yards out
for the final points.
Dvorak completed 10-of-17
passes for 133 yards and ran for
109 yards.
Ross ran for 66 yards and two
touchdowns.
Walsh caught three passes
for 56 yards, including the one
touchdown. Marcus Hosfield
had five catches for 55 yards.
Foster pointed to the linemen
who helped the Orioles estab-
lish a rushing attack, including
junior guards Henry Eaton and
Zach Johnson.
“They were both mauling guys
at their position and both will no
doubt get recruited by colleges,”
Foster said of the two. “Dvorak
had another consistent game
and makes plays that make your
mouth drop.”

BSM finds the right mix of goals and defense
By JASON OLSON
jason.olson@apgecm.com
Benilde-St. Margaret’s, the
top-ranked girls soccer team
in Class AA, rolled to its fifth
clean sheet in six matches
after dispatching crosstown
rival St. Louis Park 6-0 on
Sept. 14.
The game marked the
fourth straight shutout as
senior Natalie Tennesson
and junior Olivia Olson each
played one half of the game.
Tennesson made three saves
in the first half and Olson
made two.
The six goals were scored
by five different players,
while an additional four
players picked up an assist.
Elizabeth Dietzen led the
way with two goals, while
Maddy Shannon and Kiya
Gilliand had one goal and
one assist.
Through the opening two
weeks of the season, the Red
Knights have outscored the
opposition by a 42-2 margin.
The two goals against came
in a 5-2 win at Bloomington
Jefferson on Aug. 31 but the
closest test came a week lat-
er at Visitation ending with
a 3-0 final. The Blazers rose
from seventh to sixth in the
rankings despite a 2-3-1 re-
cord.
The target that comes with
a No. 1 ranking isn’t anything
new to BSM and coach Scott
Helling-Christy who doesn’t
put a lot of weight on the
rankings.
“There are a lot of good
teams ... any of the top four
teams could be ranked there
at any given time,” he said
ahead of the Sept. 18 meet-
ing with then third-ranked
Mahtomedi. “My hesitation
is that we’ve only been tested
by Visitation. After Satur-

day, we will see how good we
really are.”
Mahtomedi (4-1-0) and
BSM typically meet during
the regular season, serving as
a precursor to a state tour-
nament meeting in October.
They drew 2-2 at the Zeph-
yrs’ home field in 2019 the
last time they played.
The Red Knights were a
perennial favorite in Section
5A and should continue to
play at a high level in Sec-
tion 5AA. The new class in-
cludes familiar foes Orono,
Delano, Mound-Westonka,
Blake, DeLaSalle, Minneap-
olis Edison and Minneapolis
Roosevelt.
Orono also joins Waconia
and New Prague in the Met-
ro West Conference. The Red
Knights will travel to Orono
Tuesday, Sept. 28 with a 7
p.m. start.
“It doesn’t matter how the
teams are that year, it will
be a battle,” Helling-Christy
said. Waconia visits BSM on
Oct. 7.
BSM beat Blake 3-1 in the
2020 Section 5A final to end
the abbreviated season due
to the ongoing pandemic.
It is the Red Knights 12th
section title and 11th since
2005, an impressive accom-
plishment for the four-time
Class A state champions
(2012, 2013, 2015 and 2016),
who have aspirations to add
a fifth trophy in November.
Helling-Christy believes
this year’s squad is one of
the best he’s coached since
he starts 11 seniors who have
played together in the pro-
gram for three or four years.
“They were disappointed
last year not having the chance
to play at state so their heart
is set on winning the section
and getting back to the state
tournament,” Helling-Chris-
ty said. The team generates
a lot of scoring chances but
hasn’t developed a consistent
finishing touch to close out
those chances with a lot of
regularity. “That’s a concern,
especially when you play the
tougher games because you
aren’t going to get as many.”
Another component the
coaches constantly work on
is building a stronger team
unity with players coming
from across the metro area
to play for the Red Knights.
“We use the first half of
the season to get them used
to play with each other,”
Helling-Christy said as they
use a deep bench to develop
live-game experience.
Instead of relying on only
a couple of players to gener-
ate goals, BSM enjoys the
luxury of 14 different play-
ers with a goal or assist. Ava
Wagener leads the team with
nine goals and five assists
while Maddie Shannon has
eight goals and five assists.
Elizabeth Dietzen and Syd-
ney Drees have nine and 11
points, respectively.
“We are fortunate that way
with a lot of capable scor-
ers and the defense is really
solid,” Helling-Christy said.
The Red Knight’s defense
includes Tilly Wolfe and Av-
ery Junker in the middle with
right fullback Kaia Ballinger
and left fullback Mary Za-
voral.
“They don’t give up a lot
of shots on goals and the
two they gave up to Jeffer-
son came on miscommuni-
cation,” he said.
BSM picked up a 3-0 win
over Holy Angels in a pre-
season scrimmage against
another highly ranked Class
AA team which might be a
precursor of a pending state
tournament matchup.

Edina girls
aquatics team
downs Hopkins
95-80
By JOHN SHERMAN
john.sherman@apgecm.com
Edina expanded its group of place-winners
for the 2021 season in a 95-80 Lake Confer-
ence victory over Hopkins Sept. 14.
Hornet head coach Jeff Mace put a strong
group of eighth-graders into varsity lanes, and
they responded with first, second and third
places.
The meet opened with Edina taking the top
three places in the 200-yard medley relay. The
winning team of Mia Mitchell, Katie McCar-
thy, Hazel Dang and Ally Hahn went 1:54.98.
Edina finished 1-2-3 in the 200 freestyle with
Mary Dorn, eighth-grader Natalie Katz and
Olivia Julkowski. Dorn took first in 2:09.11.
The Hornets continued their pattern of
sweeps with a 1-2-3 showing in the 200-yard
individual medley. Ella Hall was the winner in
2:14.66, followed by teammates Eloise Sundal
and eighth-grader Taylor Thompson.
In the 50 freestyle, three Edina eighth-
graders swept. Anja Nymo took first in 26.86,
touching out teammates Audrey Peterson
(26.89) and Hahn (28.95). Katelynn Young of
Hopkins was close behind in fourth place at
27.09.
The diving competition gave Edina more
sweep points, with Shanze Karimi taking first,
her sister Zara finishing second and Emmi
Kaiser earning third.
Hopkins got its first win of the meet in the
100 butterfly with ninth-grader Harper Bus-
chmann beating three Hornets to the wall with
a time of 1:02.79. Edina took places 2-3-4 with
Natasha Zettler, Sarah Reichert and Laurel
Vose.
McCarthy cruised to victory in the 100 free-
style in 54.20. Chloe Buschmann of the Roy-
als made it a good race by finishing second
in 55.66 and Edina ninth-grader Dang placed
third.
Edina had the top three finishers in the 500
freestyle with Anna Schrag, Olivia Brinkman
and Peterson. Ida Kozlowicz of Hopkins was
fourth.
With the meet victory clinched, Edina swam
