BY NICK PECORARO OF THE AUBURN JOURNAL AUBURN– With the Gold Country Fair in full effect right around the corner from LeFebvre Stadium, Placer High put on its own exhibit Friday night against visiting Vista del Lago: Hillmen-brand football. The Hillmen and their Wing-T offense continue to employ a revolving door of running backs that has been known to leaving opposing coaching staffs scratching heads. Marshall Chapman carried a majority of the load for the Hillmen, rushing for 258 yards and four touchdowns in a 70-27 victory for the Hillmen, who remain unbeaten at 4-0 in 2018. Over the first few weeks of the season, Chapman and Hans Grassman (99 yards, one TD) have stolen most of the headlines and rushing accolades for the Hillmen, but Brad Bishop reminded people not to forget about No. 3 for Placer. Bishop provided three touchdowns while running for 156 yards. “It’s a combination of the perfect storm,” said Plac- er head coach Joey Montoya. “It’s rare when you have weapons at every position…The offensive line that we have obviously makes it easier to be a play-caller.” The Hillmen scored four first-quarter touchdowns and led, 28-7, after the first period.

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 2018 by Eugenia Last A change will do you good. Put the past behind you and look for brighter days ahead. You’ve got the wherewithal to bring about positive outcomes, and you shouldn’t waste time procrastinating or waiting for something to happen. Initiate the progress that will make you happy. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- New scenery will stimulate you mentally, physically and emotionally. You can make a positive adjustment to your lifestyle if you undergo a transfor- mation. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- You need clarity in your life. If you don’t fully understand something, ask questions. Find out where you stand so you can decide what to do next. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Interacting with people who share your interests or creative skills will lead to interesting opportunities. Taking short trips, visiting old, familiar places or reviving old friendships is favored. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Communication must be handled carefully. Don’t say anything that may be twisted or used against you. Protect your reputation and avoid gossip. Don’t reveal your plans, opinions and personal information. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You can charm others into seeing and doing things your way and make some lucrative investments if you stay focused on positive change. Romance and personal contracts are encouraged. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Don’t be a follower. If someone indulges or overspends, don’t feel you must keep up. Play it safe and don’t put your cash, possessions and reputation on the line. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- You’ll attract a lot of attention. Helping others will make you feel good and will lead to some positive changes in your life. A romantic gesture will stabilize a personal relationship. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Take work home with you if it will help alleviate professional stress. Staying on top of your responsibili- ties is encouraged. Don’t jeopardize your reputation or position. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Size up your options and choose what’s best for you. You can make substantial gains and build good connections with people if you take part in events that are linked to professional opportunities. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Don’t trust someone who is trying to sell you something. An emotional tactic used to get you to buy into something or volunteer your services for free should be handled with intelligence. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- What you share with family or friends will spark an idea that can turn into a prosperous endeavor. Trust and believe in yourself and what you are capable of doing. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Don’t make a change just because someone else does. Avoid overspending on luxuries you don’t need just to please someone. You cannot buy love; you must earn it. Offer empa- thy and affection. . B8 LIFESTYLES
