Kamiakin's Jenkins finishes second at state cross county meet, boys take third

The Kamiakin Braves closed their cross country season Saturday with two teams among Washington’s best, a pair of young runners reaching the individual podium and a sophomore girl finishing one place short of a state championship. Kamiakin’s boys placed third and the girls finished eighth at the WIAA Class 4A state cross country championships Nov. 7 at Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco. Sophomore Jaycee Jenkins delivered the Braves’ highest individual finish, taking second in the girls’ 5-kilometer race in 17 minutes, 53.60 seconds. On the boys’ side, freshman Elijah Teeples finished 13th in 15:44.80, followed closely by sophomore Brit Seguin in 14th at 15:45.10. Their performances helped Kamiakin earn a place on the team podium. For longtime coach Matt Rexus, the results reflected a season of perseverance, particularly for a boys team that struggled with illness earlier in the fall. “Today they came out and outperformed most people’s expectations,” Rexus said after the races. But the expectations within the program were already high. “We didn’t outperform our own expectations because that’s where the boys are at now,” he said. “They expect to do really, really well every time they come in here.” Boys overcome early setbacks to reach podium

Rules of the Road: Can't we all just calm down? Physical strategies to slow traffic

Q: There is a lively discussion online about the new choker curbs on a road in Richland, half the people supporting them and half saying the city has created an unsafe condition. I would appreciate any thoughts you have on the effectiveness of traffic-calming devices, how they work, the legal basis for them, and how local drivers adapt to the changes. A: When someone is really fired up, have you ever tried telling them to just calm down? How’d that play out? And when someone is driving too fast, does telling them to slow down work? Maybe for some, but we have more options. Traffic-calming has two primary goals: slower speeds and less traffic. Although related, we’ll leave traffic volume for another day. We can sort two common speed-reduction approaches into big buckets I’ll call physical and behavioral. Physical strategies involve making changes to the roadway that compel drivers to respond. Traffic engineers break this into three methods: horizontal deflection (preventing drivers from traveling in a straight line, using tools like lane shifts, chicanes, and roundabouts), vertical deflection (like speed humps that force drivers to slow down to avoid discomfort), and street width reduction (which includes corner extensions, median islands,
