Win big with Westfield Lions Poker For Sight Tournament The REPORTER The Westfield Lions Club is holding a “Poker For Sight Tournament” on Nov. 16-17 at the Hamilton County 4-H Fair- grounds, 2003 Pleasant St., Noblesville. Test your Texas Hold ‘Em skills and have a chance to win some of the $25,000 pay- out. With authentic Vegas equipment and dealers on hand, this will be the full poker tournament experience. The major cause for all Lions ev- erywhere is sight preservation. Lions members consist of 1.3 million men and women in 200 countries and geographic areas. They conduct vision and health screenings, locally and around the world. Lions provides vision test and eyeglasses locally for children whose family cannot afford them, and locally they support the "Leader Dog" program for the visually impaired. The grand prize in the Poker For Sight Tournament is $10,000, but there is a total of $25,000 available to be split among those who finish in the top 25 positions.

Fishers wants Noblesville students show public input on their colors, honor local veterans 70-acre Geist waterfront park The REPORTER Mayor Scott Fadness has announced plans to invest in a 70-acre waterfront park acquired in 2018 at Geist Reservoir. The park will be developed at the last-remain- ing undeveloped parcel of the 1,900-acre reservoir, located approximately at 111th Street on the east side of Olio Road. “The Geist area is one of Fishers’ most distinct assets and this park sets forth a mo- mentum for the long term sustainability of Geist Reservoir, its residents and our community at large,” said Fadness. “In conver- sations with multiple residents and stake- holders, I’ve heard time and time again the argument that the long term vibrancy of Geist is a concern. Part of that involves environmental, boat traffic and new development. My hope is that this park development helps to mitigate those concerns for residents and turn Geist into a distinct asset for all of Fishers.” Conceptual designs of the park, to be named at a later date, show the possibilities of the park development: Fishing dock, public beach, kayak, boardwalk, natural Photo provided by Noblesville Schools playscapes and opportunities for adven- Schools throughout the Noblesville district honored the nation’s veterans on Friday, and the Noblesville High School ture races, triathlons, paddle boarding and junior class hosted veteran speakers and visitors at Friday’s program.

By JIM BELSER CARMEL - In cold conditions Carmel (10-2) brought the heat on defense, handing Fort Wayne Snider a 20-6 loss and exit out of 2018 Class 6A state playoffs in the Regional 2 championship game at Carmel Stadium Friday night. The win gave the Greyhounds their 11th regional championship in the past 13 seasons. Three interceptions set the stage for the victory that highlighted a dominating effort by the Carmel defense. The Snider offense totaled just 190 yards of offense. “The game played differently than what we thought it would, but our defense rose to the occasion and really played well. I am really proud of the way they played,” Carmel coach John Hebert said. Nate Frey of Carmel intercepted two Snider passes, returning both for big yards. His second interception, coming in the third quarter, set up the Greyhounds final score. The Carmel offense took over after Frey’s interception and marched 51 yards, eventually landing in the end zone on a two-yard run by quarterback Gabe Quigley to go up 20-0 to start the fourth quarter. Field goal kicker Spencer Hanna was two for two to tally six points for Carmel, including a 41-yarder, providing the Grey- hounds with yet another excellent perfor- mance. A 25-yarder from Hanna gave Carmel a Reporter photos by Kirk Green 13-0 third quarter lead. Snider found some success in the air in the first half, finishing Carmel celebrated after beating Fort Wayne Snider 20-6 to win the Class 6A Regional 2 championship Friday at Carmel with 60 yards in the half, mostly from Stadium. This marked the 11th regional championship in the past 13 years for the Greyhounds. screens.

Defensive safety Nate Frey followed Carmel’s first score of the half with an interception and return for 40 yards. Snider’s defense stiffened, however, and stopped the Greyhounds on fourth and one at their own 25 after Frey’s big play. Carmel’s defense came up big again in the first half when IU commit Beau Robbins delivered a hit in the Snider backfield for a three-yard loss, bringing up fourth down for the visitors. Carmel pushed the ball down the field on the ground on its following possession to set up its second score of the first half. The drive was highlighted by a 19-yard play action run by Quigley. Contact by the Snider defense on a Quigley pass attempt caused a misguided throw and incompletion on third down, stalling the drive. Carmel kicker Spencer Hanna found enough distance from 41 yards out to give Carmel a 10-0 lead midway through the second quarter. “We are playing our best football right now. But we aren’t yet at the point where we can be. I think we are finally coming together and becoming tight-knit,” Hebert Nate Frey (22) runs back an interception. said.
