  • Dillon Lane of Kennewick, right, talks with Kennewick police after colliding with a school bus in his 2001 Hyundai Elantra on Columbia Center Boulevard at 4th Avenue in Kennewick. Around 40 kids were on board from Desert Hills Middle School and Kamiakin High School. No one was hurt, "just sore from the seatbelt kicking my ass," said Lane. Kennewick police Sgt. Ken Lattin said the bus driver was at fault since she was turning left, and she would be cited for failure to yield. Another school bus came to pick up kids who hadn't already called their parents and the this bus was able to drive away. "School buses are built to take a hit like this," said Ethan Schwebke, transportation manager for Kennewick School District. "The only thing they lose against is a semi or a train."

  • Since its inception in 2004, the Kennewick High School bowling team has placed first in the regional tournament five times and placed second at State three times. With a strong core of returning varsity bowlers, Kennewick was heavily favored to win the region and be contenders for the state title, which they lost by 18 pins to Emerald Ridge last year...More important than records and titles is the sense of team and the ability to compete. "This is a life sport," says assistant coach Tom Richardson. "Bowling's a sport that anybody can do. Not everybody can be a gymnast. Not everybody is going to be a great baseball player or a great football player, but everybody can be a great bowler if they're willing to do it."

  • Levi, right, and Luke work to move irrigation lines in a pasture at their home. The two also team up for cleaning work at their mother Becky's salon, Shear Inspiration in Richland. "Just keep them hot, sweaty and tired. That way they don't have energy to get in trouble," says Becky. Wayne grew up on a farm doing many of the chores he now has the boys do. "I realized that kind of work was good because you learn how to work. Get them out on the farm, regardless of how they're going to take it. They're going to complain like my brothers and I did, but they're going to learn how to work," he says about why he opted to install hand lines instead of a less labor-intensive irrigation system. "They learn when they're old enough hto pick up a pipe," he says. "Shoot, when I was little, I'd be bawling," says Levi. "He'd wake me up extra early before school to go turn on the lines. I can't remember what happened, but the water was spraying everywhere and I would just be soaking wet and it was early in the morning and I'd just be bawling my eyes out."

  • Levi pitches a tennis ball to Luke as the Burgess brothers celebrate Levi's 18th birthday with a game on a regulation-sized Little League field their father built on their land in 1999. "Now they're too big," said their father, Wayne. "If they hit a good hard drive, it's over into the pasture. Just to watch the kids out there playing is a dream come true." This year's matchup held extra significance because Levi was looking for revenge after Luke struck him out when Pasco visited Chiawana for the high school season opener. While Levi didn't manage to strike out Luke in this ball game, he did manage to bean him with a pitch. "I needed some payback," said Levi. "It made me feel good. He cried." Luke's comeback: "No, I didn't. I took it like a man."

  • Members of the Tri-Cities based Peak Putters and Yakima based All Wheelers off road clubs take a break at the top of a hill overlooking an old campsite full of debris and beer bottles. Club members not only dislike the danger of driving over glass and nails leftover from pallet fires, but also being lumped in with the offenders, who they often attribute as partying high school kids. The group packs out whatever it brings in, plus other garbage they find on the site. "It's public land," says Dave Walters. "It's here for everybody, but you have to treat it right."

  • The Burgesses prepare for a barbecue in the kitchen as uniforms for the Pasco Sun Devils American Legion baseball team fill the living room. Wayne, right, is the president of the board, and his wife Becky is the treasurerer. As the summer season approached, they had to take inventory and figure out which home and away jerseys needed replacing. Though Luke and Levi played for different teams during the high school season, Legion ball will give them one last time to play together. "He'll probably be pitching, and I'll play outfield, backing him up when they hit bombs," says Levi. "Thanks, Levi," says Luke. "It'll be fun," says Levi. "We go back to being brothers." Luke, being a freshman on the senior team, will see limited playing time. "I knew I wasn't going to play at all in Wenatchee," he says. "When Levi told me I might not be able to play, I just asked him if I could be in the dugout, at least. It was fun to sit in the dugout with all the guys, and I was actually nervous."

  • Team managers Dakota Roeder, left, and Korey Zeller, both 15, help put away balls after practice. The two freshmen are longtime bowlers, but girls bowling is a sport for Title IX compliance at schools that offer wrestling, but not gymnastics. That means there is no boys bowling, so the two helped coach, film and handle equipment.
