High School senior Justin Owen has been added to the Vermont roster for the Shrine Maple Sugar Bowl foot-­ball game, said OV activities director Steve Keith this week.Owen saw action for OV as a de-­

fensive back, running back and quar-­terback this past fall. He joins Mount Abraham’s Wade Steele, a lineman who attends Vergennes, and Middle-­bury lineman Walter Odell as local representatives on Vermont’s Shrine football team. Also expected to play is Burr &

Burton quarterback Jake Stalcup, who has announced he will attend Middlebury College this fall. Burr & Burton head coach Jason Thomas, a former Middlebury College assis-­tant, will coach the Vermont team. The annual game vs. New Hamp-­

shire will be played this year at Dart-­mouth College’s Memorial Field on Saturday, Aug. 3, at 5:30 p.m.

Women’s tennis compiles 3-­2 tripCALIFORNIA — The Middle-­

bury College women’s tennis team compiled a 3-­2 record against top teams last week in a spring break trip to California. The Panthers were ranked No. 9 in NCAA Divi-­sion III last week. The Panthers opened with a loss

to Division I Cal. State Northridge, with only Lok-­Sze Leung earning a 6-­4, 6-­1 win at No. 1 singles. The following day, the Panthers fell, 7-­2, to second-­ranked Claremont. The Panthers earned two doubles wins in the match: Ria Gerger and Leung won, 8-­6, at No. 2, and Lau-­ren Amos and Margot Marchese

Whenever Middlebury hosts an NCAA men’s basketball tournament game, I buy extra tickets and wait for the phone call that always comes: “Karl, can you get me a ticket to the Middlebury basketball game?”“Why, yes I can.”This is a call, not so long ago, I

never imagined getting. I love it. In the past, even when the Panthers were pretty good, the team played

before mostly empty seats. There was a

basketball culture in Addison Coun-­ty, waiting to be invigorated. Who knew? Now big games in the post-­

season, or in the regular season, are played in a wonderful positive rau-­cous atmosphere. Middlebury led the entire NES-­

CAC conference in regular-­season attendance for men’s games, averag-­ing nearly 800 fans a game. And why not? The team has been among the few very best in the country in recent years.

On the door to my study at home is a sign that was posted at the entrance of Pe-­pin Gym three weeks ago: “NCAA Tournament Game Middlebury-­Itha-­ca SOLD OUT.”After three victories this year in

call that record a little mis-­leading: The Panthers lost

one goal, and another by two goals.“I don’t think we were

very far off last year,” said Coach Dave Campbell on Tuesday.Campbell was speaking

after a comfortable 16-­8 non-­league win over visit-­ing New England College, one that pushed the Panthers’ 2013 record to 7-­1. They are also ranked No. 13 in NCAA Division III.Those close NESCAC losses of

2012, at least so far, are mostly close wins in 2013. The Panthers, despite a tough, 7-­6 home loss to Bowdoin

on Saturday in which a furious three-­

Polar Bear goalie’s stick, are 4-­1 in

place. And they have won two NES-­CAC games by one goal and one by two goals.

Campbell said a number of things have gone right. He credits his team’s mo-­tivated seniors, notably its captains — defenders Bil-­ly Chapman and Johnny Duvnjak and attacker Stew Kerr — for setting the tone in offseason workouts and during practices. “Our senior leadership

is excellent. Our captains, our seniors, top to bottom, they’re all doing a phe-­nomenal job, and I think

it starts with them, just the mental toughness they’ve shown and how we’ve prepared, the energy we’ve brought to practice consistently. I think that’s shown in those close games,” Campbell said. “The prepa-­ration we’ve had on a daily basis has

TROY, N.Y. — Six members of the Addison Otters Swim Team capped off a successful winter for the club by swimming personal

at the Adirondack Swim League Gold Championship Meet on March 15, 16 and 17. To compete in the meet, swim-­

mers had to meet tough qualifying times during the nine regular sea-­son meets. In all, 411 swimmers from 24 Vermont and New York teams competed, and the Otters’ small contingent, which practices at the Mount Abe pool in Bristol, swam well enough to earn eighth place among the girls’ teams and 11th overall.Longtime Otters’ coach Peter

Bicknell said he was pleased not only with the achievements of the Gold swimmers, but also the par-­ticipation and progress the rest of

“The swimmers are members of a team, but compete as indi-­viduals. There’s no one to pass to, no one to sub in. It is individ-­ual swimmers competing against their own personal best times,” Bicknell said. “To achieve best times and the occasional Gold time, swimmers must show their

in October and not waiver until the last meet of the season.”The younger swimmers among

the Otters’ Gold group come from Ferrisburgh:

team of Allie and Leah Croke, Rud-­dy and Rooney (10) swam against perennial powerhouses and fared well. In the 200-­yard medley relay the team came in second, and the

yard free relay and the 200-­yard free relay, respectively. Sarah Rathbun, 12, of Panton was

the teams’ single swimmer in the 11-­12 age group to achieve Gold

for both 50-­ and 100-­yard free-­style and swam a 50 free personal best of 30.52 despite recently battling whooping cough, which prevented her from swimming the last few weeks of practice. The Otters’ only senior Gold

swimmer this year was Bristol’s Katie Mayer, a 15-­year-­old sopho-­more at Mount Abraham Union High School. She achieved quali-­fying times in four preliminary events and earned a place in three

female records in both freestyle and breaststroke this winter de-­spite being at the young end of the 15-­to-­18-­year-­old age range, and plans to continue her career. Also, at the Gold meet, the Ot-­

The games against these two hoop dynasties have often been epics: this year the Panthers lost to the Ephs by one point in one game and in overtime in another in the NESCAC Tournament.

kicked up a notch over last year.” Junior goalie Nate Gaudio has also

excelled. A year ago, Gaudio record-­ed a .530 save percentage;; so far in 2013, he has upped that to .620. Cer-­tainly, having veteran defenders like Chapman, Duvnjak and senior Zach Driscoll harassing the shooters has helped, but Campbell said Gaudio has been outstanding. “He’s playing the best lacrosse of

his career,” he said. “He’s always been good out of the cage, and he had some good games in the cage last year, but he’s consistently stop-­ping the ball better than he ever has.” Freshman attacker Jon Broome

has also made an immediate impact, leading the Panthers with 20 goals and chipping in three assists.

-­bell said.Still, Campbell acknowledged

the Panthers still have a few things to work on. On Tuesday, two NEC goalies combined to make 22 saves while allowing 16 goals. In Satur-­day’s loss, Bowdoin goalie Christo-­pher William stopped 18 out of 24 shots on goal, including Broome’s last-­second, point-­blank bid.Campbell wishes the Panthers’

conversion rate was a little better.“Finishing hasn’t been our

strength,” he said after the NEC game. “Their (second-­half) goalie

played well, and I think you have to give him some credit, but I still think we have to make progress as a group

On the positive side, the Panthers scored several times on the break, one tactic Campbell hopes will help boost their offensive production. An indicator of how well they played in transition vs. NEC is their 26-­for-­27 performance clearing their own end — and the one failed clear was an offsides call that negated a success-­ful pass.“That’s something we’ve been

talking about,” Campbell said. “We’ve wanted to push the ball more and we’ve been focusing on that in practice, and it was nice to see us get some of those opportunities. I’d love to see us can more of them, but it was nice to see us create those opportuni-­ties.”TUESDAY’S GAME

The Panthers took control quick-­ly on Tuesday. After one save by Gaudio the defense forced a couple NEC turnovers that led to transition goals by Kerr, set up by senior at-­tacker Mike Giordano, and Broome, from senior middie Andrew Metros. Sophomore Joel Blockowicz scored an unassisted settled goal, and then

high three goals) scored again on the break, this time from Giordano, and it was 4-­0. Dangerous NEC attackers Adam

Shute (four goals) and Patrick Gillis (three) scored to make it 4-­2 before sophomore attacker Chase Clymer took advantage of a pick to make it 5-­2 after one period. The Panthers then went on a 5-­1

set up Giordano in transition, Gior-­dano fed Broome with the Panthers a man up, Erich Pfeffer backed in and scored with a lefty shot, and after a

half goalie Cody Kitson (six saves) on the short side to make it 10-­3 at 4:42. Shute and Gillis made it 10-­5 at the half, but the Panthers were in control. The Panthers subbed liberally in

the second half, and new NEC goalie Chris Galluzzo kept the score semi-­respectable with 16 saves. In the third period, junior Darric White and Cly-­mer scored as the Panther lead grew to 12-­6 entering the fourth quarter. Blockowicz, Pfeffer, Tim Giarusso and Quinn Cronan tacked on goals for the Panthers in the fourth. Gaud-­

(MS) — Recent studies have es-­timated that many Americans spend as much as three hours a day in their cars. Over the course of a typical week, that’s almost one entire day be-­hind the wheel. That not only trans-­lates to lots of face time with your vehicle’s interior, but it also provides ample opportunities for the buildup of dirt, grime, coffee, and food stains that can leave a car’s interior appear-­ing haggard and worn.In addition to robbing a car’s inte-­

rior of its aesthetic appeal, the buildup of dirt and grease can also cause the vehicle to degrade over time. Though it’s common to associate vehicle main-­tenance with what’s under the hood, drivers should also make maintenance a priority for the vehicle’s interior. When cleaning a car’s interior, address each and every nook and cranny.

Consoles & Cup Holders — Perhaps no part of a vehicle’s interior is more susceptible to dirt and grease buildup than the center console, which is typi-­cally home to a vehicle’s cup holders. Spilled coffee or soda is something every driver can relate to, and clean-­ing such spills is harder than it sounds. Specialized products are formulated to remove not only stubborn stains, but also older ones, making it ideal for taking care of that long-­ignored yet unsightly residue at the bottom of your cup holder.Clean Under the Carpets — Particu-­

larly after a long winter, a vehicle’s car-­pets can be a major eyesore. Remove

any dirt buildup that might have mul-­tiplied with each winter snowstorm or spring shower. Your carpets will look better and last longer.

Dashboards & Door Panels — In or-­der to drive a vehicle, motorists must look out over the dashboard. Despite that, dashboards are often overlooked when it comes to cleaning a car’s inte-­rior. Detailing products are formulated to remove unsightly dirt or grease buildup from all interior surfaces, including plastic, rubber, vinyl, and leather, while drying to a satin sheen

the windshield. Address the Upholstery — When

buying a new car, many auto buyers are concerned about the car’s potential resale value. That’s a genuine concern,

more than just the number of miles on the odometer. Dirty upholstery is an instant turnoff for most used car buyers, so drivers should be diligent and clean their upholstery regularly,

including immediately after any spills. Be careful when using water to clean the upholstery, as you don’t want any water getting into places that can dam-­age electrical components or create a moldy smell.Practice Preventive Care — Much

like humans, a car is susceptible to UV rays. Whereas a human would apply sunscreen to his or her skin to protect against sunburn, drivers can apply a UV-­protectant product to their ve-­hicle’s interior to guard against prob-­lems that often result from overexpo-­sure to the sun. Overcome the Odor — Masking

odors is another concern for many vehicle owners. While some spring days are ideal for rolling down the windows, spring showers are often a force to be reckoned with during the spring season.

Maintain your car’s interior and extend its life

Fueleconomy.gov has devel-­oped a new tool to help con-­sumers who are thinking about purchasing a plug-­in hybrid ve-­hicle. The new tool, called “My Plug-­in Hybrid Calculator” can help estimate personalized fuel use and costs for a plug-­in based on a consumer’s driving habits, gasoline and electricity prices, and charging schedule.Most consumers are aware

that their “mileage may vary” from the EPA fuel economy rating when purchasing a new vehicle. This applies to fuel costs, too. However, fuel costs for a plug-­in hybrid can vary dramatically depending on how far the vehicle is driven between charges. Fuel costs for a plug-­in hy-­

since they cost much less to operate when they run on elec-­tricity rather than gasoline — less than half as much in many situations. So, the more electricity you use instead of gasoline, the more money you save. However, the amount of electricity you can use depends on the length of your daily commute, how often you can charge your vehicle, and other

from person to person. My Plug-­in Hybrid Calcu-­

lator estimates the fuel cost, fuel used, and mileage for both electricity-­ and gasoline-­powered driving and allows the user to view estimates for a week, a month, or a year. It even estimates the number of

-­ing station for gasoline.The calculator is easy to use,

and users can choose from two estimation models: one with a simple form that requires mini-­mal driving information and another that allows them to enter more information about their driving habits. Both allow the user to customize fuel cost and charging information. My Plug-­in Hybrid Calcula-­

tor makes it easy to see how personal driving characteristics can affect fuel cost savings. My Plug-­in Hybrid Calcu-­

lator is part of fueleconomy.gov’s commitment to provide the most current and accurate fuel economy information on all light-­duty vehicles available for sale in the United States since 1985, including plug-­in hybrids. Look to fueleconomy.gov for more new information on plug-­in hybrids in the near future, including fuel-­saving driving tips and a cool anima-­tion showing how plug-­in hy-­brids work.

Sue James, of Orwell, is the Treasurer of the Milk & Honey Quilt Guild which meets monthly and often uses their meeting time to support a local charity. This month, they took on the task of sewing “chemo caps” for the American Cancer Society. Other sewing proj-­ects that Sue has enjoyed were making pet beds for Homeward Bound (previously the Humane Society) and piecing together quilts for Project Linus which is an organization that hand makes blankets for critically ill children. Sue also volunteers at Addison County Fair and Field Days and for the Orwell Parade. She explained that she especially enjoys working with the Milk & Honey collaborators because: “It aids the community and helps different organizations. In addition, it is such a nice group to work with!” Her peers appre-­ciate her leadership, describing her as “always willing to take on more”. Thank you, Sue!
