TAX TIME 2019

By Sally P. Schreiber, J.D.JOURNAL OF ACCOUNTANCY

Taxpayers and tax practitioners received guidance from the IRS on what to expect in the areas of au-dits, collections, tax return process-ing, and Tax Court operations now that the government shutdown has concluded. The IRS explained on its website that IRS employees re-turned to work on Jan. 28 and are going through mail and voicemail messages, but that it will take sev-eral days for them to catch up. The guidance makes it clear that the IRS is not extending any deadlines due to the shutdown.Audits

The IRS’s guidance on audits consists of 13 frequently asked questions (FAQs) about the status of audits now that the shutdown has

ended. The first question addresses what action a taxpayer, who has sent documents to his or her auditor but has not heard back, should take. The guidance says auditors will begin to contact taxpayers once they have reviewed their inventory and caught up on administrative tasks.

The IRS also addressed the is-sue of taxpayers who received 30-day letters during the shutdown. It advises those taxpayers to contact their auditor if they were unable to respond by the deadline and that au-ditors would also be contacting tax-payers to assess their options. As for 90-day letters (statutory notices of deficiency) issued during the shut-down, the IRS said they were issued to taxpayers in cases where the stat-ute of limitation was about to expire and that taxpayers still have to file

a petition with the Tax Court within that period.Collections

The IRS also issued 11 FAQs to address the resumption of collec-tions activities. In most cases, the IRS states that taxpayers will be contacted after the IRS employee assigned to the case catches up, but it does not give any additional time to taxpayers or waive any penalties and interest. If a taxpayer could not make a payment because the Tax-payer Assistance Center was closed during the shutdown, the IRS says the taxpayer can request that any penalty be abated for reasonable cause.

The IRS also addressed install-ment agreement issues, lien issues, Collection Due Process hearings, passport revocation issues, and

taxpayers whose cases were assigned to private collection agencies. The IRS said private collection agencies would re-sume contacting taxpayers no later than Feb. 1.Tax Court petitions

The IRS also created a web-page that contains updates on the shutdown’s impact on Tax Court cases. Although the Tax Court officially reopened on Jan. 28, it has canceled several trial sessions. The IRS explains that taxpayers who have cases pending that have been can-celed will be notified by the Tax Court of their new trial dates.

The IRS also noted that any taxpayer that had a petition to the Tax Court returned should resend the petition with a copy of the original envelope or the container it was mailed in to prove that the petition was filed timely. The taxpayer should also retain the original proof of mailing

In response to a question about interest continuing to ac-crue during the shutdown for a taxpayer’s Tax Court case, the IRS stated that a taxpayer could stop the accrual of interest by paying the tax due. It did not indicate an intention to abate interest that accrued during the shutdown.

IRS issues updates on post-shutdown activities

Soyfoods and the Mediterra-nean Diet go together like, well, tempeh and olives, or lightly salt-ed soynuts and cheese. When U.S. News recently convened a panel of experts to rate diets, the Mediter-ranean Diet emerged as their 2019 choice for the #1 Best Diet Overall. Consider the ways that soyfoods fit into this healthy eating plan that is focused on plant-based foods. The Mediterranean Diet incorporates more legumes, nuts, fruits and veg-etables, and whole grains into your diet. When you replace saturated fats with healthy unsaturated fats to lower the risk of cardiovascular dis-

ease, soyfoods are right there with you. Soyfoods provide high-quality protein, are low in saturated fat and high in polyunsaturated fat, and are one of the few good sources of both essential fatty acids. Soyfoods offer approximately seven to fifteen grams of high-quality plant protein per serving.

Convenient soyfoods include: pro-tein-rich soymilk; tempeh (a high fiber and high protein fermented soy-bean cake, ideal for sandwiches and appetizers); edamame to add protein to salads and vegetable dishes; and high fiber canned soybeans for soups and stews. Other ingredients in-clude Textured Soy Protein (TSP) or Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP), shelf-stable high protein granules made of defatted soy flour. Tofu is available in several forms and tex-tures, making it ideal for a variety of applications ranging from smoothies and sauces, soups, dips, salad dress-ings and desserts. Stir silken tofu into polenta or mashed potatoes to add a creaminess and protein.

How can you incorporate versatile soyfoods into The Mediterranean Diet? Let us count the ways:

1. Soy-ize your family’s favorite recipes without giving up all those Mediterranean foods and flavors you love. Replace half of the ground turkey, beef or chicken in recipes by replacing it with (TSP) that provides protein without adding saturated fat

or cholesterol. This economical in-gredient provides a protein boost to canned soups and your favorite pasta sauce recipes. There’s no need to re-hydrate it; when you add it to the pot, it will absorb liquid.

For for new Mediterranean-in-spired main courses, visit The Soy-foods Council website. You’ll find ideas like Tempeh and Edamame Pizza with a crust that incorporates soy flour. The pizza protein features crispy stir-fried cubed tempeh that has been marinated in a soy-gar-lic-ginger-soybean oil sauce. After adding pizza sauce, sprinkle with toppings such as edamame, mush-rooms, green pepper, green olives and shredded mozzarella and provo-lone cheeses. Other soy-rich Med-iterranean recipes range from Soy Italiano Spinach Pasta Rolls with Soy Protein (TSP) Marinara Sauce to Easy Stuffed Shells that you can make in an electric pressure cooker or multi cooker. The stuffed shells are filled with mashed soft silken tofu, shredded cheese, an egg or egg substitute and fresh parsley.

2. Turn to soyfoods to add a nat-ural complement to the clean eating and simple ingredients found in the Mediterranean Diet. Pair extra firm smoked tofu cubes and feta with an assortment of olives on your antipas-to plates. Create silken tofu-based salad dressings for fresh vegetable salads. To make Creamy Roast-

Tempeh and Edamame PizzaDough:

1 ¾ cups whole wheat or white flour¼ cup soy flour1 tablespoon active dry yeast¾ teaspoon sea salt1 cup warm water1 tablespoon soybean oil1 teaspoon honey1-8 ounce package Tempeh, cut into small cubes 6 tablespoons soy sauce2 clove garlic, minced2 teaspoons minced ginger3 Bay leaves2 tablespoons soybean oil

Pizza Sauce1 cup shelled edamame1 cup sliced mushrooms½ green pepper, seeded, sliced into strips½ cup green olives1 cup each, shredded Mozzarella and Provolone cheeseIn a large mixing bowl, add flours, yeast, and salt, mix well. Add

water, oil and honey, mix until combined. Cover bowl with moist cloth, place in warm spot for 10 minutes to rise. In a small mixing bowl add soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and bay leaves, stir to blend. Add tempeh, mix. Let marinate for 1 hour. Drain. In a small fry pan, over medium heat, add oil, heat. Add tempeh, stir fry until crispy. Place on paper town to absorb any excess oil; set aside. Press dough out onto a 14 inch pizza pan or cookie sheet. Spoon favorite pizza sauce onto dough. Sprinkle fried tempeh cubes, edamame. mushrooms, green pepper and olives onto pizza. Sprinkle shredded Mozzarella and provolone cheese over the pizza. Bake in preheated 425 F. oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until crust is browned. Cut into 6-8 pieces. Serve immediately.

Yield: 3 to 4 servings

Considering the Mediterranean Diet? Add healthy soy-foods into the mixed Red Pepper Vinaigrette, blend together soft silken tofu, chopped roasted red peppers, minced gar-lic, freshly squeezed lemon juice, smoked paprika and soybean oil; sea-son with salt and pepper. Other salad ideas include Edamame with Dried Cranberries, Feta and Basil, drizzled with a touch of olive oil and a bit of freshly ground black pepper.

3. If you’re looking for flexitarian friendly foods, say hello to soy. The blend of flexible and vegetarian eat-ing is a diet of moderation and modi-fication. Drink soymilk lattes or heat chocolate soymilk for a quick hot chocolate. Try adding equal amounts of TVP/TSP to ground beef, pork chicken or turkey before you make meatballs or meat sauce. To create more healthful salad dressings and dips for fresh vegetables, start with silken tofu. To make Tofu Ranch Dressing, for example, add a drained package of silken tofu to a food pro-cessor or blender with 5 Tbsp. soy-bean oil, 2 Tbsp. lemon juice, 1 tsp. garlic powder, 1 tsp. parsley, 1 tsp. onion powder, 1 tsp. black pepper and 2 tsp. salt (or to taste). Blend, and add a little water if the dip con-sistency is too thick.

4. Enjoy more sweet endings to your meals with desserts featuring soyfoods. The Soyfoods Council of-fers recipes such as Spiced Fruit Dip and Tiramisu Shots. For a fresh spin on tiramisu, create small desserts featuring firm silken tofu, brewed espresso, sugar, lemon juice and va-nilla sponge cake. The dessert is fin-ished with a dusting of cocoa powder and a garnish of chocolate-covered espresso beans. For a simple Med-iterranean-style dessert of fruits like

pears, figs or grapes, make Spiced Fruit Dip. In a blender, combine firm silken tofu, brown sugar, cinnamon and vanilla extract. Chill before serv-ing with fresh fruit.

You’ll also find diet and health in-formation, soy cooking tips, and de-tailed soy-based recipes for food and drinks your whole family will love.

About the Soyfoods Council: The Soyfoods Council is a non-profit or-ganization, created and funded by Iowa soybean farmers, providing a complete resource to increase aware-ness of soyfoods, educate and inform media, healthcare professionals, con-sumers and the retail and foodser-vice market about the many benefits of soyfoods. Iowa is the country’s number one grower of soybeans and is the Soyfoods Capital of the world.

About the Role of Soyfoods in a Healthful Diet: Soyfoods have played an important role in Asian cuisines for centuries. In recent years they have become popular in West-ern countries because of their nutri-tion and health properties. Soyfoods are excellent sources of high-quality protein and provide a healthy mix of polyunsaturated fat. In addition, in-dependent of their nutrient content, there is very intriguing evidence in-dicating soyfoods reduce risk of sev-eral chronic diseases including coro-nary heart disease, osteoporosis and certain forms of cancer. All individ-uals are well advised to eat a couple of servings of soyfoods every day.

ADJOURNMENT

During this past summer, volun-teers from Green Cares Food Pantry, an all-volunteer managed food pantry serving low-income Green County households, met with representatives from the School Districts of Albany, Black Hawk, Juda, Monticello, and New Glarus to access the degree of food insecurity within area students.

All of the districts reported some food insecurity issues. Large per-centages of students in each of these five districts were utilizing the free/reduced meal programming at the school, but weekends left some stu-dents without adequate, nutritious food. The School Districts and Green Cares Food Pantry agreed no child should be hungry.

A partnership was formed with each school district, Second Har-vest Food Bank in Madison, and the Green Cares Food Pantry to pro-

vide weekend, shelf-stable foods to students within these five school districts. The Comets Care Pack Program, Albany’s program, started in September 2018. Here’s how it works; Green Cares purchases food from the Second Harvest Food Bank, utilizing the purchasing power of the Food Bank, then these foods are dis-tributed to each of the five schools.

Each school district provides an in-kind contribution to the program by confidentially issuing the foods to those students who wish to par-ticipate in the program. There is no charge to the school district or the student. The only eligibility require-ment is simply being a student in the district. Green Cares and Second Harvest Food Bank request data from each school’s program, not names of the students, indicating how many unduplicated students use the week-

end food program each month, along with the number of weekends the student received the food pack. Con-fidentiality of the student is of the up-most importance.

The Albany community greatly helped Green Cares get this program up and running. Major donors in 2018 were: Albany Lions, Albany Thrift Store, Monsignor Thomas Campion Charitable Fund, New Glarus Brew-ing Company, Town Bank, and Al-bany New Hope Church. All funds donated to the Comets Care Pack Program are used to purchase food through Second Harvest.

If you wish to support the Com-ets Care Pack Program, please send your check payable to Green Cares Food Pantry, W5198 County Road C, Monticello Wis. 53570. Please note on the memo line of the check “Comets Care” and your entire do-

nation will go into the Comets Care Pack account within Green Cares. A $20 donation covers the food costs for one student for one month.

Research conducted by Children’s Health Watch, published in their re-port, “Too Hungry To Learn: Food Insecurity and Student Readiness,” “The long-lasting negative effects of childhood food insecurity on school readiness translate into poor aca-demic and ultimately, economic out-comes.”

Green Cares Food Pantry, locat-

ed just outside of Monticello, is the largest food pantry in Green County, serving eligible low-income Green County individuals and families while. Green Cares’ hours of oper-ation are Tuesdays from 4 to 7 p.m., with expanded hours on the first and third Tuesdays 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., Thursdays 9 a.m. to Noon, and Satur-days 8 to 11:30 a.m. If you know of someone that needs assistance, please encourage them to call 938-4238 to schedule a confidential appointment with a Green Cares volunteer.

Public welcome to Euchre partiesThe Brodhead FFA Alumni is holding Euchre card parties Sunday,

Feb. 17 and Sunday, Mar. 17 at 1:30 p.m., at the Spring Grove Town Hall, N4275 County Road GG, Brodhead, Wis.

Area communities are welcome to attend. Light refreshments will be served and prizes awarded.

If you take losartan or a product containing valsartan, you may have a recalled and potentially dangerous medication in your medicine cabinet, according to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The FDA is notifying patients about the recalls of additional losar-tan-, valsartan- and irbesartan-con-taining products. Angiotensin II re-ceptor blockers (ARBs) like losartan, valsartan and irbesartan are common medications used to treat high blood pressure.

This recall is due to an impuri-ty called N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA) in some products that con-tain losartan, valsartan or irbesartan. NDEA appears to cause cancer in ani-mals and is suspected to cause cancer in humans, according to lab tests.

Over the course of the last few months, several companies have is-sued a voluntary recall of ARB-con-

taining medications. In fact, Teva Pharmaceuticals initiated a voluntary recall of ALL lots of valsartan-con-taining products that have been made with the affected active pharmaceuti-cal ingredient (API) from Mylan Phar-maceuticals. And Aurobindo Pharma USA, Inc., has issued a voluntary re-call of 80 lots of valsartan-containing products.

Now, additional lots of losartan-, valsartan- and irbesartan-containing products are being recalled. And Tor-rent Pharmaceuticals Limited is re-calling six additional lots of losartan/hydrochlorothiazide combination tab-lets, bringing their total losartan-con-taining medication recall number to 18 lots. As of January 2019, the number of lots of losartan-containing medications is 19.

At least 504 lots of valsartan-con-taining tablets are being recalled at this time.

School District of Albany BOE Budget and Finance Committee Meeting

School District of Albany BOE Jan. 17, Special Meeting summary

More blood pressure medications recalledFurthermore, Solco Healthcare

LLC (a Prinston Pharmaceutical Inc. subsidiary) is recalling an addition-al lot of irbesartan and seven lots of irbesartan/hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) tablets. This comes after the recall of 27 lots of irbesartan from ScieGen Pharmaceuticals labeled as GSMS and 10 lots of irbesartan from ScieGen Pharmaceuticals labeled as Westminster Pharmaceutical. This to-tals to 45 lots of irbesartan-containing products.

Speak with your pharmacist to de-termine whether your medication is included in this recall. The FDA has updated the lists of valsartan products, losartan medications and irbesartan medications under recall.

To keep yourself safe during this medication recall, the FDA recom-mended the following steps:

Look for the drug name and the company that made the medication on your medication bottle. If you can-not find this information, contact the pharmacy that filled your prescription.

Continue taking your medication until your health care provider pro-vides an alternative treatment option or your pharmacist provides a re-placement. Losartan treats high blood pressure, which is a serious medical condition. Stopping the medication could be dangerous.

If your medication was recalled, follow the exact recall instructions for the specific company, which can be found on the FDA’s website. In addition, contact the pharmacy that dispensed your medication to discuss next steps, including switching to a product that has not been recalled.

The FDA said it will continue to investigate this problem and provide more information as it becomes avail-able.

Juda girls suffer loss to BelmontBy Trent ScheideggerREPORTER

Back on Saturday, Jan. 26, the Juda Panthers traveled to Belmont as a Six Rivers-East Conference member faced off with a Six Rivers-West member. The Juda girls came in sitting at 2-12 as they looked to capture their third win of the season. Belmont came in holding a winless 0-12 record on the year.

The Panthers found themselves down early as Belmont managed to hit six first half three-pointers. Juda hit just one first half three of their own which came off the hands of Paige Price. Hannah Powers led the way offensively for the Panthers as she totaled nine points and went three for three from the free throw line before the half.

Thanks to Belmont’s barrage of three-pointers, they took a 34-18 lead into the half.

The Panthers struggled to get their offense going in the second half, as Belmont began to expand on their lead.

Riese Price was the leading scorer for Juda following the break, as she went two for two from the free throw line, and hit a pair of layups giving her six in the half. Hannah Powers added another four to her total, but that would be all of Juda’s second half offense as they totaled 10 points all together.

Belmont did their damage inside the arc this time, as they outscored the Panthers 18-10 and worked towards a 52-28 victory over Juda. The victory was the first of Belmont’s season.

The Panthers currently hold a very young roster, and this season could be considered “growing pains” as the girls look to grow their basketball IQ, and develop some chemistry with one another.

Holly Hunt and Emily Sheehan of the Parkview FFA Chapter attended the Association of FFA Half-Time Leader-ship Conference held at the Holiday Inn & Convention Center in Stevens Point, Wis., Jan. 11-12.

Over 300 FFA members, advisors and state FFA officers participated. The Half-Time Leadership Conference pro-vides FFA chapter leaders from around the state the opportunity to set goals and prepare for the second half of their year of service in their local FFA chap-ters. FFA members attended workshops focused on leadership and personal de-velopment, membership and chapter development, and opportunities in FFA. They learned about preparing for FFA events and getting involved in commu-nity service.

The Half-Time conference is a 33-year tradition for the Wisconsin Associ-ation of FFA to bring top FFA leaders from across the state together to learn more about what they can do in their local FFA chapters.

This year’s leadership conference was designed and conducted by the 2018-2019 Wisconsin State FFA Offi-cers. The theme of the conference was “Agents of Change”. “Half- Time is one of the premier leadership conferences in our state and designed by student lead-ers. It allows FFA chapter leaders to de-

velop their leadership skills, learn more about FFA activities and meet people while having fun,” said Cheryl Zim-merman, State FFA Executive Director.

“We are able to provide young people with an excellent experience to devel-op their leadership skills and get them excited about Agriculture, Agricultur-al Education and the FFA so they can build their local programs.”

FFA advisors were also busy during the weekend as they attended training sessions in the areas of Meat Animal Quality Assurance, Academic Career Planning, Award Applications and oth-er key topics in agricultural education. Teachers were also involved in the Wis-consin Association of Agricultural Ed-ucators (WAAE) Board Meetings and Committee meetings.

The Wisconsin Association of FFA comprised of 250 local chapters in high schools across the state prepares over 21,000 students for leadership and ca-reers in the science, business and tech-nology of agriculture.

FFA activities and programs comple-ment instruction in agriculture educa-tion by giving students practical expe-rience in the application of agricultural skills and knowledge gained in classes. FFA’s mission is to develop premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education.

Emily Sheehan and Holly Hunt traveled to Stevens Point in Janu-ary as representatives of the Parkview FFA.

Attorney General Josh Kaul to-day joined a bipartisan coalition of 21 states in filing an amicus brief in the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals to defend the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) in Brakeen v. Zinke. ICWA is a 40-year-old federal law that furthers the best interests of Na-tive American children and protects the sovereignty of Indian tribes by preserving children’s connections to their tribal heritage.

“ICWA has provided important protections to Native American chil-dren for decades, and those protec-tions should remain in effect,” said Attorney General Josh Kaul. “I’m proud to join attorneys general from 20 other states in supporting ICWA.”

First enacted in 1978, ICWA was a response to a history of culturally insensitive and removal of Indian

children from their birth families. This resulted in the separation of Indian children from not only their families, but their tribes and heritage as well. ICWA’s purpose is to “pro-tect the best interests of Indian chil-dren and promote the stability and security of Indian tribes and families by the establishment of minimum Federal standards” to be utilized in child welfare proceedings involving Native American children.

In this case, individual plaintiffs, along with the states of Texas, Lou-isiana, and Indiana, sued the U.S. Department of the Interior and its now-former Secretary Ryan Zinke to challenge the law. In October 2018, the district court for the Northern District of Texas agreed and struck down much of ICWA on constitu-tional grounds. The brief filed today

by Attorney General Kaul and 20 other attorneys general argues that ICWA is an appropriate exercise of Congress’s broad authority to legis-late in the field of Indian affairs and does not violate the Tenth Amend-ment or equal protection principles. The brief also highlights ICWA’s im-portant role in reducing disparities in child removal rates and improving the collaboration between states and tribes relating to their shared interest in improving the health and welfare of Native American children.

Attorney General Kaul joined the Attorneys General of California, Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Massachu-setts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missis-sippi, Montana, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Utah, Virginia, and Washington in filing the brief.

Valentine’s DaythursDay, FEbruary 14th

Few things stick in a child’s memory more than a perfect snow day. To ensure these winter play days aren’t tainted by injury or ill-ness, parents should be aware of the dangers tied to the coldest time of the year.

The American Academy of Pedi-atrics (AAP) has some winter safety tips on how parents can protect their children from winter dangers. The following are some crucial ways parents can keep their kids out of harm’s way.

1) Dressing Kids AppropriatelyFor outdoor activities, the AAP

recommends dressing babies warm-ly — specifically in several thin layers. As a rule of thumb, parents should dress babies and small chil-dren in one more layer than an adult would wear in the same weather conditions. Layering clothing al-lows kids to remove a layer if they

become too warm, while still retain-ing the other layers’ heat. Dress ba-bies and young children with warm mittens, boots and a hat — prefera-bly waterproof ones.

However, it is important to not place blankets, quilts, pillows or other loose bedding in your infant’s crib or sleep area, as they can cause suffocation and may contribute to sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Instead, opt for a thin blan-ket and tuck it under the crib mat-tress. If a blanket is absolutely nec-essary, make sure it does not go past your baby’s chest.

2) Protecting Against Frostbite and Hypothermia

Frostbite occurs when the skin and outer tissues come in contact with freezing temperatures for an extended period of time. This gen-erally affects extremities like toes, fingers, ears and noses. Affected

skin may become pale, gray or blis-tered, and the child may complain of burning or numbness. If you sus-pect your child has frostbite, bring them indoors immediately and place the frostbitten skin in warm (not hot) water.

The AAP urges parents not to rub the affected areas for warmth. After a few minutes, dry and cover your child with clothing or blankets. Give him or her something warm to drink.

If numbness or burning continues after drying the child off, call your child’s doctor right away.

Hypothermia occurs when body temperature drops below normal. This usually occurs when a child has been outside in extreme cold without proper clothing or when their clothes have become wet. Hy-pothermia can occur more quickly in children than in adults.

Symptoms of hypothermia may include shivering, and the child may become lethargic and clumsy. In some cases, a child with hypo-thermia may have slurred speech.

If you suspect hypothermia, call 911 immediately. In the meantime, bring the child indoors, remove any wet clothing and wrap the child in warm blankets.

The AAP also recommends set-ting limits on time spent outdoors to prevent frostbite and hypothermia. Children should periodically come inside and warm up.

To prevent hypothermia and frostbite, it is important to set rea-sonable time limits for your kids in terms of outdoor activities. Have your child come indoors periodical-ly to warm up.

3) Managing Winter SportsIce skating is a wintertime favor-

ite, and it’s easy to find an approved

skating area by inquiring with the local police department.

According to the AAP, make sure your child does the following:

Skates only on approved surfacesDoes not chew gum or eat candy

while skatingSkates in the same direction as

the crowdWears appropriate knee and el-

bow pads and a helmetDoes not skate aloneBefore your child goes sledding,

make sure the sled is structurally sound, splinter-free and steerable. The AAP does not recommend sledding with inner tubes or snow disks. Children should stay away from motor vehicles, wear a helmet and be constantly supervised while sledding.

Speak with your health care pro-vider about keeping your children safe this winter.

Parkview boys capture conference winBy Trent ScheideggerREPORTER

The Parkview Vikings hosted Madison Country Day for a Trailways South Conference matchup last Friday. The Vikings came into Friday’s game sitting in second place in the conference with a 5-1 in league record. They looked to prove they deserve to be at the top as Madison Country Day was near the bottom with a 1-4 record in conference play.

The Vikings had a bit of a slow start offensively, but they managed to turn things around late in the first half. Justin Balch led the way for Parkview, going a perfect four for four from the line and hitting on four shots from the field. Balch would score 12 first half points, as he led the Vikings into halftime with a 26-18 lead.

Balch continued to carry the hot hand in the second half, as he once again was perfect from the line, going three for three. This time he received support from teammates Aydon Campbell and Adrian Meza, however. Meza would total 10 second half points, and Campbell added another eight of his own. Connor Simonson also chipped in with six second half points.

Balch would finish the evening with an impressive 19 points, while Meza totaled 13, and Campbell was right behind with 12.

The group worked together to gain some separation in the second half as they earned a 69-43 victory. The win pushed the Vikings win streak to four in a row and extended their season record to 9-4.
