3 ways to create an empowering DEI strategy in a polarized culture
“Redirecting route…” Ever heard this with a sinking feeling as your car’s GPS fights to reconcile the ideal path to your destination? We’ve all been there — road-trip-ready, and then it hits — construction, blown tire, a tanker overturned — and you come to that dead stop, only to crawl at a snail’s pace to a random unknown exit. The trip’s early optimism is replaced with the growing dread that perhaps this trip was a bad idea after all.
For many the “journey of DEI” may feel…

Adjustments fuel Riverhawks to 2-0 start
Mike Christensen felt it took two drives for the Toledo High School’s football team to get “comfortable” defensively and the offense followed suit en route to a 26-13 triumph over Goldendale on Saturday afternoon at home. It moves the Riverhawks to 2-0 heading into the final non-league game against Pe Ell/Willapa Valley in Willapa next week. “It was a physical contest,” Christensen, the head coach of Toledo, said. “This was a matchup I want to do more of, East (versus) West. I wanted to pick three hard (non-league) games and PWV fits in that.” After giving up a score in the first quarter, the Riverhawks started to gain momentum in the second frame behind a 28-yard burst from Carter Swofford. Then Eli Weeks launched a 68-yard touchdown pass to speedster Trevin Gale to take the lead for good. Swofford and Weeks each registered third quarter rushing scores. Swofford finished with 147 yards while Weeks totaled over 200 offensive yards. Toledo out-gained Goldendale 366-182 and despite three fumbles, it never lost one. “It was a good learning experience,” Christensen said. |

Acorns turn it up in fourth quarter to edge Hyaks
A little creativity went a long way to give the Oakville-North River football team its first win of the season on Friday night, edging by North Beach 34-24 at home. Leading 28-24 late in the fourth quarter, the Acorns (1-1) called a halfback RPO with Daniel Rodas unleashing a 49-yard touchdown pass to Konor Burnett for the final dagger. Rodas finished with eight catches for 178 yards and two scores plus his lone passing TD. The defense played a large part in preserving the victory.

At the two-yard line and North Beach having first and goal, Dre Kluth and Ben Kimbrel notched sacks and Daniel Rodas had a PBU on fourth and goal.
