According to I epidemiological studies, about one- II third of children and adolescents II experience low back pain at some point in their young lives. However, a recent stqdy involving nearly 3,000 patients reveals that, in the case of three-quarters of adolescents with mechanical )w back pain, the source is non- )ecific and self-resolving. This nding argues for a minimalist pproach, which chiropractic care can provide, Even in 7% of cases involving spondylosis (spinal osteoarthritis), the conservative l approach is preferred.

SHS soccer loses final game By EMILY HANSON emily@m, asoncounty,com The Shelton boys' soccer team lost its final game of the season earlier this month. On May 8, Mt. Tahoma defeated the Highclimb- ers 2-1. "We out-played them and shot them," SHS head boys' soccer coach Isaiah Herrera said. "It was like that the whole season. We just couldn't score." Eric Mendiola scored for Shelton in the first two minutes of the game. "We played well but scoring was our issue," Her- rera said, He said the Highclimbers performed well as a team, despite how young the team was compared to others in the 4A Narrows League. "We stayed in big games and learned a lot from this season," Herrera said. He characterized his first season with the High- climbers as "a good one." "I learned a lot about the boys and the school," Herrera said. "It gets me excited about the next year." .....

As of Tuesday. the 4A State Boys' Golf Champion- ship had already begun, at which Alec Martinson and Zach Lund represented Shel- ton. The championship was scheduled to end yesterday, so the results of how Mar- tinson and Lund performed were not yet available. This weekend, three coun- ty high schools have athletes competing in the state track and field championships. Shelton is sending Indi Endicott, Lolly Jones and Bryton Rodgers to Mt. Tahoma for the 4A State Track and Field By EMILY Champion- HANSON ships, while North Mason is sending 10 athletes to the 2A State Track and Field Championships, also at Mt. Tahoma. C.J. Allen. Emma Berg, Nick Jensen, Tommy Marsh, Alicia Martin, Ruby Nelson, Alivia Sandquist, Tabitha Schwerzler, Emily Walsh and Evelyn Williams are all competing for the Bulldogs. Finally, Linda Cook, Nick Dierkop and Hannah Frost are representing Mary M. Knight at the 1B State Track and Field Championships at Eastern Washington Univer- sity in Cheney. It's not easy for any ath- lete to reach the state cham- pionship for their sport, so I want to take a moment to congratulate these athletes on their hard work and dedi- cation throughout the spring. Whether or not they come home with medals, these athletes are all champions to me and I hope their families, friends and peers feel the same.
