Why does he need music in the arena if he is deaf?

…..
– a rubber ball cricket?
Last week the national deaf India cricket tournament took
place. It is as popular in the deaf community of India
as much as deaf softball is with the deaf in USA.
Anyway, rubber ball was used in the tournament. Normally
cricket matches are played with regulation cricket balls,
which is of hard surface.
Is India saying deaf cricket players cannot use hard balls?
……
Illinois basketball
Randy Shearburne, the past boys’ basketball coach, has
retired. He is just changing gears – being appointed
as the new boys’ basketball coach at Routt HS, which is
two miles away from the Illinois Deaf campus.
Awkward for Illinois boys to see their former coach as
the “enemy” coach?

– Tony Tatum’s pro football debut
part of newspaper story
Facing a 14-7 deficit, Utah’s defense turned up the heat on Lee and the
Talons offense. Making his Arena Football debut, rookie defensive back
Tony Tatum provided the first spark by tipping a pass and coming down with
an interception inside the red zone. Fullback Ben Stallings then plowed
into the end zone from a yard to cap a five-play, 48-yard drive.

Gallaudet baseball
During the summer months the DC Grays team in the Calvin Ripken
Collegiate Wooden Bat League plays home games on the Gallaudet
campus. This is the team’s 2nd season of play. Last year they
had two deaf players – Billy Bissell and Tommy Barksdale. This
summer they have one deaf player, Gallaudet catcher Casey Hicks,
a rising senior. While Gallaudet plays on the NCAA-III level
many of his DC Grays teammates are NCAA-I players – coming from
BYU, Wake Forest, North Carolina, Mississippi State, George
Washington and some other colleges!

Florida football
Dragons football lose spring game 28-8
Hello. As stated earlier, here’s a more detailed version of our
football game on 5/23. We travelled to Hilliard to take on the
Flashes. They’ve always been a solid rural team with tough
no-nonsense players. The moment we stepped onto the field for
warm-ups, we knew we were facing an uphill battle.
The boys did not lose heart and we gave it all we had.
Unfortunately, heart doesnt always put up points on the scoreboard.
We had difficulties moving the ball on offense. We fared a bit
better on defense and stopped them on two of their 5 first half
possessions. We headed into halftime trailing 20-0.
Prior to the game, Hilliard’s coach and I agreed to play the subs in
the 2nd half and that’s what we did. Eduardo Solar and Christian
Forbes really shone in the second half as well as Anthony Wallace who
actually switched from playing fullback (his position this year) to
center (his position last year) in the middle of the half.
On a more serious note, we had a player who was injured on the last
play of the game and had to be taken to the hospital to get checked
out. I’m pleased to report that he has been discharged and is on his
way to recovery. He suffered a concussion. While it is serious,
it’s a relief that he passed all the other tests the doctors gave
him.
Thanks and see you in the fall!!
Stats: Final score 8-28
Eduardo Solar 91 rushing yards, 1 TD
Marcus Maldonado, Rushing PAT conversion
Christian Forbes 10 tackles
Anthony Cash 8 tackles
Cedric Scott & Zachary Williams forced a fumble apiece
Dante Townsend had a fumble recovery

This is nothing to be embarassed about as Hilliard dressed 62

playing time. Our lone score came in the 4th quarter from a 50+ yard

Why didn’t USA do well at the world hockey championships?
A newspaper story may have explained the reason
Mike Wonoski was eagerly looking forward to the World Deaf Ice Hockey
Championships in Finland. But the starting center and assistant captain
for the USA team only skated two shifts, after suffering a serious injury
in the first game against Canada, and had to sit out the remainder of the
tournament.
The Beverly resident underwent surgery this week to repair a completely
torn ACL and partially torn MCL. After months of training and working hard
to stay in shape for the big event, Wonoski was disappointed to be on the
ice for less than two minutes. The team suffered a few other costly
injuries and did not medal.

GU athletics mourns the loss of William Sugiyama ’59
http://www.gallaudetathletics.com/news/2012-13/sugiyama
editor’s note:
wrestling was Gallaudet’s premier sport during the fifties;
the wrestlers coached first by Thompson Clayton and then by
Frank Turk, won championships just like an assembly line.
Sugiyama was one of the last of a group of great champion
wrestlers – as this sport lost its steam on the campus
during the sixties. Wrestling is no longer a varsity sport.

We lost to The Heights 29-5. We started off flat and the Heights
wasted no time to pour points on the scoreboard. At the half we
were down 19-0 The second half saw better performance from our
boys but the Heights wanted the win more than we did. We went
winless this season for the first time in the five years of the rugby
program at MSSD. There is a lot to look forward to next year as
we had a very young and inexperienced team that tough it out all
season. Majority of our players are freshmen and sophomores. The
boys are already looking forward to next year!

State Track Meet 2013 NMSD
This past weekend’s Centennial New Mexico State High School Track and

Albuquerque. New Mexico School for the Deaf sophomore Fernando Silva
made his first appearance in the state Long Jump competition and
managed a distance of 16′ 11″. Another NMSD sophomore, Kendrick
Skeets, jumped a personal best in the Triple Jump with a distance of
34′ ½”.
It was junior Immanuel Neubauer, however, who stole the show for the
Roadrunners! After being disqualified from the 100m Dash because of a
false start during Friday’s preliminary races, he concentrated on his
next two races and qualified for the finals in both the 200m and 400m
Dash. The next day with moderate to high winds, Immanuel stunned all
of New Mexico with an impressive, “come from behind”, 1st place gold
medal run in the 400m Dash. His time of 0:49.81, a new personal best
and NMSD record, more than makes up for the false start
disqualification in the 100m Dash. Not an hour later, in the 200m
Dash, Immanuel took the 3rd place bronze medal with another personal
best time of 0:23.75.

2013 Hall of Fame inductees are:
Helen DiFalco of Sun City West, AZ both a premium player and a
leader during MDLGA days. She was instrumental in developing an
active MDLGA. She participated in MDLGA events for over 37 years
and exerted her leadership to bring young deaf women into the world
of golf. She served as MDLGA President several years in addition to
several MDLGA offices. She also founded the Wolverines Deaf Ladies
Golf Association in 1977 where she served as an officer in several
capacities including 18 years as its tourney chairperson.
Linda Nelson of Cary, NC has been in the golfing world for many
years. She participated in MDLGA tournaments, starting in 1971. She
chaired the 1979 tournament and was its champion several times. She
is now a Board member of MDLGA and Law Chair after being its
secretary. She helped set up and chaired Twin Cities Deaf Ladies
Golf tournaments during 1970?s. Also, she helped set up Eastern
States Deaf Ladies Association and served as USDGA Board Member for 8
years.
Heyward Thompson of Branchville, SC is an accomplished golfer,
including being the oldest NDGA/USDGC champion at the age of 57.
Even at age of 69, he finished 3rd place behind Doren Granberry and
Bill Roberts in the 1993 NDGA tournament. In this same year, he
placed 2nd to youthful Canadian Jonathan Rose in SEDGA. He won
several SEDGA tournaments and competed against young golf
heavyweights such as John Vaughn, Peter Siege and Roland Stetson.
George Dyess of Silver Spring, MD has played in all regional golf
tournaments and many state/local DGA tournaments since 1979. He is
one of the few who have competed in both the old USDGA and existing
USDGC tournaments. He competed in almost all National Deaf Golf
Association tourneys, too. He qualified for WDGC several times,
placing 3rd in 2004. He was involved in several hearing tournaments
some of which he won. He has held several offices including SEDGA
President and USDGA Board Member. He helped or coached several Deaf
golfers who became top golfers. He helped set up and supervised Deaf
Youth Golf Camp for three years.
I want to thank the USDGA Hall of Fame committee members for their
time nominating, reviewing and selecting the candidates.

Trinity Academy JV. TLC lost very tough and good game with score 7 to
8. Senior Elaina Fisher hit first home run ever in TLC History by
Inside the Park, However, With the coaches’ knowledge it Is
definitely over the fence if they have fence since the ball was
around over 250 feet. We fought back to take lead then next inning,
BTA went to take lead again then we could not able to score any run
in last inning. It was very good game. We are really proud of our

We are looking forward for next year. We will miss two Seniors-
Jessica Lambert and Elaina Fisher. Our big goal for next year to see
our pitching to improve.

Congratulations to all ESDAA participants and coaches and BIG thank

……..
St Mary’s girls track
This past Saturday afternoon, St. Mary’s School for the Deaf hosted
the annual ESDAA Track & Field championships. There were 8 total
girl programs comprised of both division 1 & division 2 teams that
competed. For some of our Lady Bison’s (Jasmine Hollingsworth,
Ta’leah Toney, & Tracy White), it was their first time participating
in this tournament. For other members of our Lady Bison’s “family”
(Andrea Lewis, Dinahliz Quinones, Rebecca Swiatek, & Emily Murphy)
this was the final chapter in their storied ESDAA tournament career.
Naturally, Buffalo, NY upheld its infamous reputation
with cold blustery weather throughout the course of the afternoon
making the conditions less than ideal to compete in. However, we
tried to put forth our finest effort and make the best of it.
Although there were many individual accomplishments, the team dropped
down to 4th place in the overall rankings. We finished the
tournament with 1 gold medal, 2 silver medals, & 2 bronze medals.
Our coaches noticed a lot of potential for future success and some
simple things that if “cleaned up” could catapult us back up the
standings next year. The Lady Bison’s will continue to learn from
our mistakes and as the old saying goes “when you get knocked down,
you get up again!” Thank you to all the staff, families, and friends
who helped and gave their support at the track this weekend.
INDIVIDUAL ACCOMPLISMENTS:
Jasmine Hollingworth: 1st place in shot put(PR)/ 2nd place in discus
Jamilia Torres: 2nd place in 100m hurdles/ 2nd place in 300m hurdles
Andrea Lewis: 3rd place in triple jump/ 3rd place in 200m
……..
a hard to believe story
(from a deaf Japanese newsletter)
History: Discrimination against Deaf Sports (1) Track and Field Convention
In May, 1967, Endo Muneshi, 18, a high school senior from the Tokyo
University of Education (currently the University of Tsukuba) School for
the Deaf located in Chiba Prefecture, won the victory in the Chiba High
School Track-and-field Convention at two items in the good record: Men’s
100M final 11 second 4, and 200M final 22 second 6.
The higher-ranking winners of the various items of this convention were to
be granted to participate in the Kanto Region High School Track-and-field
Championships of a top level.
Endo believed that he could participate in the Kanto convention, and he
felt sure for it.
However, the National High School Athletics League made a decision to
cancel Endo’s qualifications for entry to the Kanto Championships on June
17, because Endo was a student of the “school for the deaf” instead of an
ordinary high school.
League officials further explained: a deaf student is so unable to hear
that danger may follow, and this causes trouble on a convention
management, such as summoning athletes, etc.

In what was our best match to date we lost to Eleanor Roosevelt HS
24-5. This match was a fierce battle between both sides. Our
young undersized squad went toe to toe vs a bigger team sizewise.
At the half we were down 12-0. Refusing to be shut out our boys
worked hard to get points on the board. With the forwards pushing
the ball down the field and going out wide to the backs Anel Dudo,
Alen Dudo and Luis Naranjo worked together perfectly with Naranjo
downing the ball for a try. Alen Dudo missed the conversion kick.
Am awfully proud of our boys’ effort as we have been improving every
week. This match felt like a win for us as we have hung tough all
season vs bigger schools every week. We re currently 0-7 and this
team’s heart is clearly undefeated as we have all stayed together
thru the season.
Our last match is this Wednesday May 8th at The Heights School in
Potomac, MD. Kickoff is set for 6:00pm.
Come out and support America’s only Deaf High School rugby team!

Yesterday was another day of personal records and new school records.
First and foremost 1st year runner Nasir Ford shattered the old
school record in the 800m run with a time of 2:20.02. What is
even more impressive is the fact that it was his first time running
this event! We are really excited and look forward to seeing Nasir
develop
as a very good Track/Field athlete in the coming years. Other school
records that were erased were Selena Ramos in the 800m run ( 2:59.02)
and Mark Gonzalez in the 100m run ( 11.3 ).
Athletes that showed improvement and set personal records were
Augustin Babu in the 1600m run ( 6:34.56 ), Kim Nguyen 1600m run (
9:18.96 ), Jaquan Hollis 400m run ( 57.66 ), and Lateef Thomas in the
Long Jump ( 15′ 4″ ).
The girls took 3rd place out of 5 teams, while the boys notched 3rd
place among 4 teams. Team scoring is as followed:
GIRLS- Pennington HS: 99 BOYS- NJSD: 94

time.
