TODAY’S WEATHER HIGH: 72 LOW: 51 By JEFF JELLISON As President of the Hamilton County Commissioners Mark Heir- brandt has interest in public safety. Heirbrandt was quick to respond when asked about how the recent investment of several million dollars by the County in a new communica- tions system paid off in a multi-agen- cy response to the Westfield High School stage collapse. Heirbrandt stated, “I am proud of the way our public safety personnel and community members worked to- gether on this difficult task. This all started with the dispatchers who took the call and effectively communicat- ed the situation to the officers, fire fighters and emergency personnel.” The incident at Westfield High School prompted the response of 12 different police and fire agencies represent- ing two counties. The Hamilton County Communications Center coordinated the dispatching of all emergency re- sponders. “The new radio system that we purchased recently is already making a difference in the communication we have throughout the county with our first responders. This was a significant investment but well worth it for the safety of our community as well as our responders.” Hamilton County Communication Director Michael Snowden echoed Heirbrandt’s comments. “The system worked flawlessly as it relates to clarity of sound and the ability for all of our units to talk to each other as needed. I am unaware of any complaints regarding the radio systems ability to handle the influx of traffic. That is something that we likely would not have been able to say with our prior system,” stated Snowden. “Events such as the Westfield Stage collapse are unfor- tunate. Preparing our first responders to assist our commu- nity in a time of need is essential. We also have a responsibility to provide our first responders with proper County's investment in public safety Heirbrandt The city of Westfield has received $50,000 to be used for economic revi- talization after being named as a quar- terfinalist in the America’s Best Communities Competition. “We are thrilled to receive this award as Westfield continues to move ahead with the community’s vision for downtown,” said Mayor Andy Cook. “We will make every dollar count as we build a community that residents and business owners can be proud of.” America’s Best Communities is a competition supported by Frontier Communications, DISH, CoBank and Vince Gill, and is designed to spark economic vitality in small towns. Hun- dreds of communities from 27 states served by Frontier Communications, DISH, and CoBank applied to the com- petition. After launching in September 2014, the America’s Best Communities com- petition successfully attracted entries from 138 applicant teams, representing 347 communities across the country. In Indiana, 20 teams, which brought to- gether a total of 23 communities, ap- plied. “As soon as I saw this competition I knew it would be a perfect fit for the Grand Junction Plaza project,” said Ken Kingshill, who submitted an applica- tion on behalf of the Downtown West- field Association. “Every day we are getting closer to seeing the Grand Junc- tion project become a reality. This funding will give us another resource we can leverage in order to preserve Westfield’s small-town identity while creating an environment where busi- nesses can thrive.” Grand Junction project John Hebert has seen it all in the Carmel High School football program, from both sides of the field. Now, he will be the main man on the sidelines. Hebert was announced as the Greyhounds' ninth head coach on Friday. Hebert replaces Kev- in Wright, who re- signed on March 30 to be the head football coach at the IMG Academy in Florida. "Being the new head football coach at Carmel High School is dream come true for me," said Hebert. " For the last 10 years I have been fortunate to serve on the staffs of Mo Moriarity and Kevin Wright. The suc- cess we’ve had has been due to the combi- nation of a great coaching staff, dedicated and tough young men, and a process for preparation that we all believe in here. We intend to keep the culture that has helped us to be successful during that time. I can’t wait to get started preparing for this season." There's probably no one else who has much knowledge and experience in the Greyhounds' program. Hebert graduated from CHS in 1989, the same year Carmel won its fifth Class 5A state championship. Hebert was an Indiana North-South All- Star that year. Hebert played at Purdue University, then returned to his alma mater to become a social studies teacher in 1995. He has been on the 'Hounds football staff for 14 years, the last seven as the defensive coordinator. “John brings a passion for our program that our student-athletes will see every day and our fans will enjoy next fall," said Inskeep. "His work ethic and dedication to continuing the excellence in our program will be evident to all Greyhounds.” Inskeep said Hebert will begin his head coaching duties immediately. "Like always, we will strive to improve with each opportunity," said Hebert. "I think you can expect to see a disciplined and relentless team on the field for the Greyhounds this fall. Despite losing many great players, our returnees are excited to assume leadership roles and become a team that makes this community proud."

Hamilton County Sheriff deputies are looking for information on a black passengervehicle involved in a hit-and-run crash that occurred on Gray Road at 146th Street onThursday, April 30, at approximately 6:20pm. According to a crash report, four vehicleswere involved in the minor property damage crash allegedly caused when the black carrear-ended a line of vehicles causing a chain reaction crash. The driver of the black carleft without exchanging information with the other drivers. No injuries were reported inthe crash but the other three drivers were unable to provide a definite description of theblack 4-door passenger car that left the scene. Anyone with information should contactDeputy David Needham at (317)773-1282.

Indiana law requires, at a minimum, drivers involved in a crash to stop and remain atthe scene to exchange information with anyone else involved in the incident.

In the case of a crash with an unattended vehicle orproperty, the driver must make a reasonable attempt to notify the owner of the damagedproperty. Failure to follow these laws is chargeable with at least a B misdemeanor and canrise to a Level 3 felony (Indiana IC 9-26-1-1.1).

Hamilton Southeastern earned a sweep of the Mudsocktrack and field meets on Friday. And the Royals definitelyearned them.

The boys meet had the closest finish of any contestbetween HSE and Fishers. Despite a late charge by the hostTigers in the final running events, Southeastern held offFishers 68-64. Meanwhile, the Royal girls won a little morecomfortably, beating the Tigers 79-53.

Here's how close the boys' competition was: Bothteams won eight individual events. Fishers swept all threerelays, which is big because only the winning school getsrelay points.

But the Royals made up for it in the hurdle events, asHSE went 1-2-3 in both races. Aaron Brown was thewinner of both the 110 and 300 hurdles. Royals coachChristopher Swisher said that helped his team out "a ton."

"It's our strong suit, I guess you could say," said Swisher.Other winners included Jordan Wright, who set a new

Southeastern school record by pacing the 800 run in1:55.18. Willie Brown triumphed in the 100 dash, TigerGuillory won the long jump, Ethan Bray soared to a polevault victory and Ashmon Lucas was the shot put winner.

"It's good to have a solid dual meet all the way to theend," said Swisher.

The Tiger relay winners were Nick Butler, TristanStrobel, Jake Kleist and Peter Werling in the 4x800, TresCarver, Josh Lloyd, Jontel Hackett and Jeremy Chinn in the

4x100 and Keyshawn Burrell, Simeon Foster, Jordan Catesand Lloyd in the 4x400.

Trevor Thompson picked up distance wins in the 1600and 3200 runs, Jalen Moss was victorious in the 400 dash,Lloyd got a third first-place ribbon by winning the 200dash, and Cameron Kosegi won the discus.

In the girls meet, the Royals won nine events, includinga 1-2-3 sweep of the 800 run. That event produced thesecond first-place finish of the meet for Rachel Nichwitz,who earlier had won the 1600 run.

Courtney Pfanstiel also had a hand in two wins, first aspart of the 4x800 relay with Jackie Malayter, Grace An-dritsch and Sabrina Bippus. Pfanstiel came back later tocruise to victory in the 3200.

Mia McKenzie was another double winner, easily firstin the 300 hurdles and long jump. Other first places for theHSE girls were Meghann Cullen in the 100 hurdles, AlyssaMcDougal in the discus and Sydney Encinias in the highjump.

"We were worried," said HSE coach Julie Alano, whoalso said that Fishers is "much improved." She spoke of thetradition of Lady Royals track and field, and how otherteams are trying to score a win over her team.

By DON JELLISONReporter EditorWestfield has helped itself, and all the

other contenders in the Hoosier CrossroadsConference baseball race, by twice knockingoff Brownsburg so far this week.

The Shamrocks won a second straightgame from the Bulldogs Friday evening atThe Rock, roaring to a 6-0 decision.

Brownsburg came into the week with a5-1 conference record.

Game 2 was all Westfield.“We’ve been able to get our pieces

together and to get some of our players backin the lineup,” said Coach Ryan Bunnellafter Westfield’s latest win.

“Our defese has gotten better,” Bunnelladded.

The pitching yesterday came fromsophomore Noah Shanteau. He hurled six

innings of shutout baseball, allowing justfive hits. He fanned three and walked onlyone.

“It was his best game of the season,”Bunnell said.

Jackson Bard relieved in the seventh andkept the shutout in check.

Westfield’s defense, as Bunnell said,was outstanding and Shanteau was toughunder pressure. He allowed Brownsburg apair of hits in the first and two more hits inthe fourth, but no Bulldog runs.

Westfield scored twice in the firstwithout getting a hit. Milo Beam, NickRhodes and Chris Ayers led off the inningwith walks. Beam scored on a sacrifice flyby Bailey Partlow and Rhodes scored on asacrifice fly by Harrison Freed.

In the second, Brian Skelton and JacksonGarrett each singled and Shelton scored ona double by Beam.

Westfield broke the game wide-openwith three runs in the fourth. Garrett reachedon an error, Beam walked, Rhodes singled,Ayers had a ground out RBI and two moreruns scored on a two RBI single by Partlow.

The two teams will play the third gameof the series today at 11 a.m. at Brownsburg.

“It’s another big game,” said Bunnell.“We will be idle from conference play thelast week of the season, so we will need tosit and watch.”
