“What I’m looking forward to is real gospel music loWery led by the spirit for the cause of fighting breast cancer.”

All music and gospel acts are from Walker County, demonstrating the wealth of talent in one of the most riles fertile regions in the state.

“I know this music is going be good,” said Curtis Ray, a longtime Gospel Diva fan. “For one thing, the music is always patrick live and it’s going to be in the church. That way, we’ll be lifting up the name of Jesus, increasing the hopes of all See gospel, page 3A

Chris Gladden and his daughter Presley created a fun, decorative Halloween figure by using some spare hay bales and their imagination. The sculpture is located in the 1800 block of U.S. Highway 190 and is definitely worth a look.

Dog breeders or puppy millers?

Dear Annie: My next-door neighbors are breeding and selling dogs illegally. Sometimes they have as many as 18 dogs in the house. The problem is having to put up with all that barking, and even worse, the smell permeates our driveway, porch and yard. It is disgusting.

We are retired and have a beautiful home. We cannot enjoy our own yard because of these neighbors, and selling is not an option. I have tried everything from attempting to reason with them to reporting them to the city and animal control centers, to no avail. Each agency passes the buck.

In addition, I am sure they are not paying taxes on this illegal business venture. What other avenues can I pur- MitcHell and sue? — Barking Up a Tree Sugar Dear Barking: Have you tried the police? If this is an illegal enterprise, the police should arrest them. Have you called the humane society? If the dogs are being mistreated, the humane society should get involved. Also look into local noise ordinances and check out your homeowners or neighborhood association, if there is one, and find out whether there is any type of intervention or mediation available to you.

Dear Annie: You’ve printed several letters about thank-you notes, so I hope you can help with my dilemma.

I recently attended a wedding, and I gave the couple a substantial amount of cash that I placed in a card. It has been over a month, and I have not yet received any acknowledgement. My concern is that perhaps the cash was lost. Should I ask whether they got it? — Unsure in New York Dear Unsure: We suspect the couple has not yet gotten around to writing their thank-you notes. We’d be impressed if they had done so within a month.

Please give them a little more time. If you don’t hear anything in another two months, it is OK to phone and ask whether the gift reached its destination. It is always safer to have a gift sent to the bride or groom’s home, or hand a card with a check to the couple, the parents or the best man.

Leaving cash on a gift table is risky.

Dear Annie: I am tired of hearing women complain about their mothers-in-law. I have raised a son, sacrificed, worried, lost sleep, worked jobs I didn’t want and devoted my entire life to what was best for him — as all mothers do. I dreamed that one day he would marry and have children, enriching our family. Then he meets “the one,” and she is accepted and welcomed.

We help them get settled and offer financial assistance and emotional support, because I want my son and his family to be happy.

And then one day it starts. You are no longer greeted with open arms. You have to call first before stopping by (even if you are next door). You get lectures about “boundaries,” and in the worst case, you are exiled.

Do you want to know what I think? I think there are rotten little girls who need to control their men and are too insecure to accept their mothers-in-law as “Mom” and instead see you as the “other woman.” They show no respect. A mother has a relationship with her son that should be cherished, not destroyed.

I pity their own daughters if they are raised by such messed-up women and can only hope that karma prevails if they have sons of their own. — Unhappy Mother of a Son Dear Unhappy: While we agree that some daughters-in-law can be insecure and jealous of their mothers-in-law, we completely disagree when it comes to dropping by without calling first. Too many parents trespass all over their children’s boundaries, as if they don’t apply to them. If you want to be treated with respect, you also have to show respect for the married couple. We don’t care whose mother you are.

Huntsville pets Helping people

A history lesson about an organization formed to help folks in Huntsville, young and old by sue Harris Huntsville pets Helping people

In the spring of 2003, Willow Carpenter (she rules the roost at Don and Diane’s home) was named the AKC champion Border Terrier. It soon became apparent that she needed something more to do with her time, and Diane became affiliated with Aggieland Pets with a Purpose.

This, of course, constituted a one-hour drive each way for Willow to visit at nursing homes, hospitals, etc. That’s not only stressful for the handler, but also for the therapy dog.

In the fall of 2003, the Carpenters began to visit at patient rehab at Huntsville Memorial Hospital and later at Ella Smither.

Huntsville Pets Helping People was founded by seven charter members in Huntsville and became a Delta Society affiliate in 2005, with certified

those battling a breast cancer diagnosis.”

Featured among the local talent performing will be Ronda Riles, formerly of the all-female group Angelic Praise, Karen

evaluators and instructors.

These positions enabled us to qualify local teams for registration.

We also became a READ (Reading Education Animal Dog) affiliate, beginning our program at Scott Johnson Elementary School.

The dogs offer a comfortable atmosphere wherein the children can read to them without any criticism on their skills.

In the fall of 2009, we elected to become an affiliate with ITA (Intermountain Therapy Animals) as a great fit for our organization.

We offer many services to the community. In addition to the READ program; we visit nursing homes, rehabilitation units, Huntsville Memorial Hospital and offer programs to instruct children about “safety around animals.” We also offer obedience classes to the general public, training owners as well as their pets on basic pet man-

ners.

Our pets are recertified every two years and must maintain their standards; the evaluations consist of the dog behaving calmly under disruptive situations that might be encountered in nursing homes and hospitals.

As part of the evaluation, they are required to react calmly to crowds, wheelchairs and walkers and interact well with other pets.

Each “team” works together (these are our personal pets) and they also must adjust to new and often strange situations.

HPHP is a 501C3 not for profit organization, and all teams are strictly a volunteer organization.

We owe a multitude of thank-you recognitions to area businesses and their generosity.

Donice Wade, owner of the local Subway restaurants, originally gave us our “seed” money to get our group started; Target

gave us grants, which enabled us to purchase books for the READ program; Chris Seaman, who at the time was the Walmart manager, encouraged us to obtain our 501C3 status; Ella Smither Nursing Home had faith in our program; Huntsville Memorial Hospital encouraged our “doggie” visits to patients; the Lexington Center, HMH Inpatient Rehab; United Way and Sam Houston State University have also been very supportive.

Area schools that have been a big help with our READ program are Scott Johnson and Stewart Elementary, and the VISTA Academy is now in its second year of participation.

The Huntsville Public Library has long been a proponent of the READ program and it is well-received by the children in Huntsville and Walker County.

We owe special thanks to the Huntsville Family YMCA for allowing us to use the “Y”

House for our offices and to St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church for its sponsorship and the use of the parish hall for evaluations and obedience classes. We are so appreciative of our donors.

Thanks to all of you!

HPHP currently has 29 certified teams and we are very proud of their efforts in the community. Again, we are a completely volunteer organization and depend entirely on donations to continue our outreach. We like to ensure that the READ students all receive books, as well as token gifts such as bookmarks and certificates of participation in our programs.

Future articles will specifically highlight our various programs as well as our teams.

If you should have any questions on Huntsville Pets Helping People activities, please contact me at sueharris1227@sbcglobal.net or (936) 439-0086.

Holiday Lowery, noted for her versatility and range, the deep rich sounds of Katherine Hutchinson and the uniquely spiritual Diane Patrick.

All musical arrangements will be performed by recording artist Jesse Wortham and the NuFocus Band.

“These are some really talented sisters,” said Wortham.

“What’s different about this type of concert is that it keeps me, as well as the audience, on our toes.

You never know where the spirit will lead.”

It’s that improvisational influence that fosters an air of giving and inspiration.

“We only do gospel concerts,” said Eric McCarter of E&M Productions. “All proceeds will

be donated to charities promoting breast cancer awareness.”

The Gospel Divas will have the first of two free shows tonight a 6 at Unity of Faith Missionary Baptist Church located at 336 Watkins Street in Huntsville.

The Divas’ second show will be held on Oct. 25 at Bowen Pilgrim Missionary Baptist

Church located at 425 West Main in Trinity starting at 4 p.m.

There will be food, prize giveaways and a wellness awareness class given by Sophia Willis and Michelle Desalle.

awarded for playing them is small items like stuffed animals that can’t be worth more than $5,” Fullwood added.

“Through our investigation we were able to determine this store was paying out

cash.”

The Sheriff’s Office sent an undercover informant inside the JIF-E Mart to help gather evidence used to get Friday’s search warrant. The informant began receiving small prizes after playing the machines and eventually that built up to cash payouts.

Investigators were able to obtain video of at least one cashier of the store handing

We also have a pottery class that children will be able to make characters from the new move ‘The Box Trolls.’ We will also have a class to make Christmas stockings and of course there is our gingerbread house workshop for our gingerbread house contest.”

Also new to the fall arts schedule is a class to help families develop their children’s creativity.

The Wynne Home is partnering with Dr. Miki Henderson of the Early Childhood Education Program at Sam Houston State to bring families with kids 2 to 4 years of age together with games, music and art.

“This class is something we are really excited about and glad to have Dr. Miki

over cash to a player.

“Basically what happened was our informant was able to earn their trust and began receiving cash prizes,” Fullwood said. “He would get a receipt from the machine after playing, hand it to the cashier and get his cash winnings. We took that information to the District Attorney’s Office and were able to get a warrant to seize the machines.”

Henderson and her staff on board,” Pease said.

“This is like our mommy and me class, but it will be bigger with room for 25 families because it will be held at Gibbs Pre-K Center. Dr. Henderson will help parents develop their children’s creativity in a variety of fun ways.”

People can sign up for the classes at the Wynne Home, 1428 11th Street, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

THE HUNTSVILLE ITEM, Estab. 1850

Sexual assault on campus: What now?

P

eriodically, young women of college age turn up missing. Such a case is the disappearance of a University of Virginia student last month.

Tragically, most of those who disappear have been assaulted and murdered. The natural reaction of people and organizations is to do something. Activists understandably pursue remedies from local to national levels, yet the problem persists.

Sexual assault and col- Gene lege campuses have been Blair hot topics for many years, producing much activity and legislation.

In 2010, President Obama required federal agencies to make domestic and sexual violence a priority. The president signed the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act in 2013. On Sept. 19, 2014, the president launched his “It’s On Us” campaign, combating sexual assault on college campuses.

The vast majority of attention and funding has been directed to after-the-fact investigation and treating the victim more humanely, certainly helpful to sexual assault victims. While there is a prevention component to each legislative package, grant or project, perhaps something is being overlooked.

The White House Council on Women and Girls produced a report entitled Rape and Sexual Assault: A Renewed Call to Action, in 2013. While it addressed the whole spectrum of sexual assault, one particular statement stood out: “The dynamics of college life appear to fuel the problem, as many survivors are victims of what’s called ‘incapacitated assault’: they are abused while drunk, under the influence of drugs, passed out, or otherwise incapacitated.”

This statement about college life is enlightening. Perhaps there is a need to radically alter the college culture, which for some students includes binge drinking, multiple sexual partners, drug use, drunk driving and other indiscretions, several of which indeed may result in “incapacitated assault.”

While there is no foolproof solution to sexual assaults on and around campuses, there are ways to lower the likelihood of victimization. In the distant past, young women on campus were afforded the privacy and protection of female-only dorms, curfews and no male visitors in dorm rooms.

These rules were later seen as unfair gender-specific restrictions, and perhaps they were, as males did not have to abide by the same rules. However, the primary goal was protection, not cultural freedom.

In much the same way we restrict movements in banks, we restrict access to nuclear weapons to properly screened personnel, and we submit to the indignity of personal searches to board a commercial airplane.

These measures are a form of target hardening, which makes it more difficult, though not impossible, to perpetrate bank robbery, avoid inadvertent nuclear war and prevent terrorism. In each case personal freedom or privacy is diminished in favor of enhanced security. It is about percentages, balancing personal freedom in favor of personal safety. The goal justifies the inconvenience.

The other applicable concept here is shared responsibility. That is, that personal safety needs to be the shared responsibility of the female student, the college or community, and the parent. Notice the omission of male students and the federal government. They should certainly be included in the equation (and are), but they cannot be depended upon to tilt the board in favor of personal safety for young women.

The federal government can dole out money, but it cannot guarantee that one single assault will be prevented. And we can try to change male attitudes and behaviors, but after all, males are the perpetrators. Miraculously changing 90 percent of male behavior still leaves 10 percent who don’t change, more than enough.

Instead, we must require today’s students to heed the still-valid advice once given by parents years ago. Don’t leave a party with someone you just met. Don’t drink to the point of intoxication. Don’t be alone with a stranger in a car. Be aware of your surroundings after dark. Avoid some places entirely. Don’t go out alone. And, famously, nothing good happens after midnight.

In other words, one must accept personal responsibility for one’s safety even if it feels restrictive. This does not ensure safety, such as with boyfriend-turnedpredator, but it does decrease the risk of life-threatening victimization.

We’re not blaming the victim, just acknowledging that the culture is not always safe, and all the post-assault therapy and police sensitivity in the world will not change the likelihood of an assault happening. Parents today need to send their children to college with this advice firmly implanted in their young psyches.

Colleges have been criticized for their insensitivity to the plight of sexual assault victims (female and male). And they have responded with information and programs.

Understandably, they are seeking to avoid the denial of federal funds under Title IX. Under the Clery Act, they are dutifully publishing campus crime statistics, as if a

percentage point difference in crime rate may cause someone accepted for Harvard to opt for Sul Ross. These actions should not be enough for the many college officials who really do care about the safety of their students.

How should colleges react? How about some serious up-front requirements that impact all students? Oregon State University now requires incoming students to take two new online courses designed to help prevent sexual violence on campus. It’s the first time students must take the class before setting foot on campus. “The first 6 to 8 weeks of a college experience — if they’re an incoming student at a traditional age — is one of our most high risk times,” says an Oregon State official.

What about a required one-hour college credit freshman Kinesiology course on personal safety and self-defense, taken in the initial freshman semester or the summer before? Making this topic a core course speaks volumes about a college’s practical commitment to student safety.

How about one-gender secure dorms again? Maybe even curfews , this time for all campus students.

Concurrently, parents and students should understand that a college’s responsibility for assaults off-campus is extremely limited. Shared responsibility falls disproportionately on the student and parent.

If they permit their freshman to be placed in a common-area four-bedroom apartment with strangers and visiting friends of strangers, with no non-fraternization rules in place, it’s not the school’s fault if an assault happens.

Appropriate rules can set students up to succeed, and not become victims.

Someone has to be the adult.

While this may sound archaic and medieval to today’s generation of students, the problem dictates that we consider all approaches, even those abandoned with the advent of sexual freedom and equality of the sexes. The fact is that the sexes are not equal in one important area: sexual assault.

For parents who want to send their children to a place of safety, for colleges which take on the prevailing culture of excusing irresponsible behavior, and for students who can assume responsibility for their own safety, a firm commitment to shared responsibility is necessary in order to reduce the lasting trauma of sexual assault and even the death of someone’s precious daughter.

Gene Blair, a 34-year resident of Huntsville, is retired from the Criminal Justice Center at Sam Houston State University and the U.S. Army. He is the father of a former female college student.

Your LetterS Error in Ebola headline Dear Editor, I read with interest the two Ebola articles in the Thursday, Oct. 9, newspaper. I would like to mention that there is an error in the headline.

While Mr. Duncan may be the first Ebola death in the United States, he is not the first

victim.

Just prior to 1980 in Reston, Virginia, just a few miles outside Washington D.C., several U.S. citizens came down with what is now called the Reston Ebola strain at a simian lab.

This was transported through the air conditioning system.

However, there were no reported deaths.

I would like to point out that in 2007 that the Center for Disease Control filed for a patent on the Reston Ebola.

Further, they included in their patent application, Zaire, Uganda and Ivory Coast Ebola.

In 2008, the CDC received a patent for these strains of Ebola virus under Patent No. CA2741523A1.

Currently, Monsanto has moved into the act. Further, the Nigerian government is trying desperately to track 30,000 persons who may have been exposed to the Ebola virus from a July 20, 2014, flight and conference.

BY HOLIDAY MATHIS Daily Horoscope HOROSCOPES SATuRDAY, OCTOBER 11, 2014 Venus in her beloved realm of Libra is working against Uranus in hotheaded Aries, insisting that the willful planet stop surprising us in matters of love. Uranus won't budge, though, insisting that change is good for relationships and that too much routine and familiarity breed stagnation. The Libra sun tells them to try to strike a balance.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Pretending to MATHIS be an expert is the first step to actually being an expert. Your friends will connect you with people who are interested in the same things as you.

TAuRuS (April 20-May 20). You prefer to be cool under pressure, but it's not always possible. Just know that when they do see you sweat, they appreciate you even more because they relate to how hard you're trying.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The best lessons won't be handed down from the heavens; they will be at your feet in the form of rocks that cause you to walk with more care lest you stumble over them.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You want your team to win, and you'll do everything within the rules and within your power to make that

happen. Cheering relentlessly will be a big part of this. If everyone contributes like you, you'll have an unstoppable group.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You'll work just as hard, if not a little harder, at your play as at your work. And yet your play is so much more relaxing. Does this mean there's something you need to change about work?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You're not about to boss anyone around unless it seems like they secretly want you to. The directionless relax when they have a strong leader. The question is: Is this the best use of your time?

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Visit the past, but only if you have enough gas in the tank to get back to the future, because you don't want to get stuck there. There is new information that you're ready to hear. Ask the pointed questions.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). If you let yourself get too afraid, you will become paralyzed and incapable of action. The trick is not to think about it so much. Just go. Trust that you have greater faculties than you think.

SAGITTARIuS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). At the start of the day, your rhythm may seem off, and if you let yourself be grumpy, things will continue to get in your way. Once you make yourself happy, you'll continue to be productive, effective and smart.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). How can you be expected to stay focused on the tedium that bores you out of your mind? If you're going to get into your new interest, you'll have to first get out of the

AQuARIuS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You're usually attracted to overachievers, but right now you can appreciate the perspective of a laid-back individual (as long as that person isn't so laid back that he needs to be propped up).

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You're the whole package: friendly, compassionate, attractive and sweet. But you're not so sweet that you'll let just anyone take up your time. Whatever it is, it has to bring you self-respect, or it's not worth your time.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 11). You strive to exceed all expectations, and because you're not trying to do the average thing, you'll catch the attention of above-average people and situations. You'll make an important sale in the next six weeks. November brings a logistical twist, and you'll accommodate it brilliantly -- just have faith. Scorpio and Virgo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 20, 41, 22, 19 and 7.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Reality star John Luke Robertson is one of the youngest members of the "Duck Dynasty" family. He draws a crowd whether appearing on the popular A and E show or at rodeos, fairs and events across America. Robertson was born when the sun and Mercury were in Libra, as they are now, so this will be an especially lucky birthday in which he applies his social graces to seek interesting new ventures.

THE HUNTSVILLE ITEM 1B

Bearkats Game Day Mcneese state at saM Houston state today, Bowers stadiuM, 3 p.M. Series at a glance McNeese holds a 25-9 advantage over Sam Houston in the pair’s all-time series. There has been one tie. Sam Houston is 5-21 against McNeese since joining the Southland in 1988.

The Bearkats are 3-9 against McNeese in Bowers Stadium.

Since the first Sam Houston alumni event was played at Joseph Pritchett Field in 1931, the Bearkats stand 39-40-1 in SHSU homecomings.

The Kats’ record on the artifical turf at Bowers in homecoming games is 19-9 with Sam Houston riding a five-game homecoming win streak.

McNeese State is the Bearkats’ homecoming opponent for the seventh time. The Kats defeated the Cowboys 4510 in 2012 and 30-25 in 1996 in homecoming tilts. McNeese was the victor in the other four alumni day matchups (1994, 1998, 2002 and 2008).

sam Houston state quarterback Jared Johnson is far from a finished product, but he knows he’ll need to step up his game if the Bearkats are to upset fifth-ranked Mcneese state today and revitalize his team’s season.

Challenge accepted

Bearkats glance Record: 1-0 in Southland, 23 overall, unranked in the Sports Network’s FCS Top 25 Last Game: Sam Houston State defeated Lamar 42-10 in Beaumont on Sept. 27.

Players to watch: All eyes will be on sophomore quarterback Jared Johnson (No. 15) in today’s matchup against the Cowboys. The Bearkats need Johnson to sustain drives and keep McNeese’s offense off the field. To help Sam Houston’s offense control the clock, they’ll need stellar performances from the entire offensive line, as well as running backs Keshawn Hill (No. 3), Jalen Overstreet (No. 11) and Donavan Williams (No. 24). On the outside, Johnson will be looking for wide receiver Derreck Edwards (No. 4) to make plays down the field.

Defensively, P.J. Hall (No. 92) will be utilized in multiple ways and will need to have a big game on the defensive line for Sam Houston.

Cowboys glance Record: 0-0 in Southland, 31 overall, ranked No. 5 in the Sports Network’s FCS Top 25 Last game: McNeese defeated Nicholls at home on Oct. 4.

Players to watch: Led by offensive tackle Antoine Everett (No. 71), McNeese is one of the most physical teams in the Southland Conference.

Everett is listed at 6-foot-3 and 329 pounds. He is two inches taller and at least 59 pounds heavier than both Bearkats defensive ends. Quarterback Daniel Sams (No. 4), has taken advantage of stellar offensive line play to lead his team with 84 rushing yards per game. A week ago, his 135 rushing yards were good enough for the fourth highest total ever for a McNeese quarterback.

McNeese is equally as talented on the defensive line as they are on the offensive line.

Defensive end Everett Ellefson (N0. 94) could have a big game.

JOSHUA YATES/THE HUNTSVILLE ITEM

Sam Houston State quarterback Jared Johnson scrambles outside the pocket during the Bearkats’ 42-10 victory over Lamar two weeks ago in their conference opener. Johnson said he hopes the improvements his team has made over its second bye week of the season will prepare them well for McNeese.

BY PAUL TIERNEY

the sky was the limit for sam Houston state quarterback Jared Johnson, and then it wasn’t.

After amassing 703 passing yards and five touchdowns in the Bearkats’ first two games of the season, Johnson went from being anointed as the next dominant Sam Houston trigger man to having head coach K.C. Keeler contemplate benching him in favor of Don King III. Statistically, Johnson has fallen off a cliff since giving coaches and fans alike an early glimpse of his talent level.

In Sam Houston’s last three games, Johnson has combined for 378 passing yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions. He’s completed 47 percent of his passes and been sacked 13 times since lighting up Alabama State at Bowers Stadium on Aug. 30.

But yet, for Keeler, Johnson’s potential is tantalizing. Johnson’s 6-foot-1 and 215-pound frame stacks up with most linebackers and his blazing speed makes him a nightmare for defensive backs to tackle. Against Lamar, Johnson rushed for 113 yards, not including yards lost because of being sacked.

Keeler likens the Bearkats’ last four weeks to having another training camp with a high-profile scrimmage against Lamar mixed in to test his players. During that time, he’s focused his attention on fixing the ailments of the Bearkats’ once potent offense, and it all started with Johnson.

Keeler will get to see if his efforts paid off today when Johnson takes the field against a McNeese defense that leads the Southland Conference in total defense (280.8 yards per game), rushing defense (95.5 yards per game), scoring defense (14.2 points per game), pass efficiency defense (92.5), opponent first downs (14.5), opponent third down conversions (29.5 percent), and opponent fourth down conversions (28.6 percent).

LSU aside, the Cowboys will bring the most talented defense that Sam Houston will see this season to Huntsville today. The See Kats, page 2B

Keeler excited as ever about his Bearkats The Huntsville Item’s Bearkats beat writer Paul Tierney talked with Sam Houston head coach K.C. Keeler earlier this week about his team’s high-profile matchup with fifth-ranked McNeese State.

Item: How has the team responded to the bye week?

Keeler: We had four players of our 22 starters against Eastern Washington play in the spring. We didn’t really have a spring. So, really, our training camp became

r’s eelee r or n

K

our spring. The way the schedule has worked out, it’s a very unique situation to have only played one game in the last month. We took it as an opportunity that we have a

month, which is basically how long training camp is with a game in the middle of it. If you design training camp, you would design it that way. We were tested with a socalled scrimmage in the middle of it, which was Lamar. I really feel good with how hard the kids have worked and the improvements they’ve made. As coaches, we’ve done a better job of understanding what our kids can do and what they can’t do.

Item: Is your team prepared to

play a squad as talented as McNeese?

Keeler: We feel really good about a challenge like McNeese.

We know they’re really, really good. But I feel like it’s a great opportunity for us to see if we’ve made the improvements that we think we’ve made.

Item: What are you expecting from the defense against the Cowboys?

2B THE HUNTSVILLE ITEM

Stop the run

Run the ball

If the Bearkats defense can’t get off the field, they will wear down and limit their own offense’s opportunities to score.

improvements made, or not made, by Johnson could determine whether Sam Houston’s ambitions of making the FCS playoffs for the fourth consecutive season still have a chance of coming to fruition.

“I think Jared has taken this month and worked on some things that we’ve challenged him to work on,” Keeler said. “We feel that we’ve really worked hard to develop him.”

With four returning starters on the offensive line and six wide receivers who transferred in from high-profile FBS programs, Johnson has the talent around

him to have a wildly successful season. In the backfield, the trio of Kesahwn Hill, Donavan Williams and Jalen Overstreet has proven to be effective.

Johnson knows Saturday’s game could make or break the Bearkats’ season.

“We’ve had time to pinpoint every aspect of our game,” Johnson said. “Since we’ve had the time, we’ve worked on it.

Everybody feels really comfortable. I think we’re prepared to put on a show.”

To enable Johnson to put on a show, Keeler said his staff has tailored the offensive game plan around Johnson’s strengths.

Johnson’s play could be the most important factor in how the Bearkats are able to defend McNeese.

sive line we’ll see. They’re offensive line is better than Eastern Washington’s. It’s better than anyone else on our schedule. They have a dominant and physical offensive line. The rest of their offense revolves around that.

They have a talented and athletic quarterback, good tailbacks and solid receivers. We need to be able to stop the run. That’s the bottom line. If they’re just running the ball on us all day, it’s going to be a long day. Those kids up front are just so physical.

Item: Is this game do-or-die for your season?

Keeler: I don’t know, because a lot of times 8-4 gets you into the playoffs. But It’s going to be a huge step for us to get our credibility back and make people say, ‘Oh, you know what, these guys are pretty good.’

If you beat the No. 4 or No. 5 team in the country, people notice that. I think it will be a great confidence builder. I think it will send a message in terms of where we are. But even without it, we still have a chance. I don’t want to put everything on this game. I’m really trying to get the kids in this mind-set of just worrying about going 1-0. Don’t think beyond that, because if we start thinking beyond that, win or lose, it’s not good. If you think this game puts you back in the national spotlight, and you win it, then what does that tell you about next week? Same thing if you lose it.

The talk has been all about just playing the best game we can. We’’re playing a great team on homecoming. That is a challenge for me to kind of get that stuff out of their hear, because we just need to worry about playing McNeese, not about what the ramifications are if we beat them or not.

We feel really good. We’ll play anybody and stand there and throw haymakers all day long.

Item: What are you expecting from McNeese’s vaunted defense?

Keeler: They’re really good. They are legit good. I had the No. 1 defense in the country in 2010 at Delaware. James Madison has had some great defenses and so has Villanova.

This McNeese defense is right up there. Very physical. It’s tough to get a beat on them because they’re schedule has been very soft, except for Nebraska. But when you watch the Nebraska game, you see their quickness bother Nebraska’s guys. McNeese had the benefit of playing a first-time starter at quarterback. He struggled and threw a pick-six, which was a 14-point swing. You watch Nebraska’s front guys, they struggled against McNeese’s quickness. The other thing I’m really impressed with, they run to the ball like you want your team to run to the ball. They run to the ball like our team ran to the ball against Lamar. Now hopefully, our team will run to the ball every week like they did against Lamar. When you watch McNeese, they swarm to the ball. That’s going to be a huge test for us.

WR No. 17 Ernest Celestie

SHSU has given up big plays in every game so far this season.

The Kats can’t afford to continue that trend against the fifthranked team in the country.

With the Southland’s top rushing offense, the Cowboys have averaged 277.5 yards per games and lead the conference in time of possession, averaging 33 minutes and 44 seconds per game. If Johnson and the Bearkats’ offense can’t keep the ball from McNeese, Keeler said the game could get out of hand.

“We can’t be a three-and-out team,” Keeler said. “We need to execute and gel offensively like we’ve seen from our guys the last month in practice. If we do that, I think can score some points and keep their offense off the field. If we keep going three-and-out, the physical punishment that McNeese will put on you will JOSHUA YATES/THE HUNTSVILLE ITEM wear us down.

Dogs chew up Buffalo new waverly rolls past Bison 48-24

By JP mCBriDe Huntsvilleitem@gmail.Com

JOHN RUDOLPH/FOR THE HUNTSVILLE ITEM

New Waverly senior Cade Tremie runs up the middle during the first half of the Bulldogs’ district contest against Buffalo. The Bulldogs proved too much for the Bison, winning 48-24.

Lady Hornets take care of Caney Creek

NEW WAVERLY — The Bulldogs celebrated homecoming week in style Friday night, blowing out Buffalo 48-24.

New Waverly’s offense was unstoppable, as they racked up 444 yards of offense and scored seven touchdowns.

The Bulldogs were only forced to punt the ball twice.

Senior running back and receiver Domonique Humphrey put on a show, using his blazing speed to rush for 94 yards on seven carries with three touchdowns and 84 yards receiving off three catches and a touchdown.

While Humphrey torched defenders on several plays, he humbly gave credit to his teammates for helping him reach the end zone four times.

“I had good blocking and people were staying on their assignments,” Humphrey. “The wide receivers and (offensive) line blocked well, giving Troy (Roberts) and me some time to get out there and score.”

The game was neck-and-neck in the first half, as the teams exchanged the lead six times. New Waverly (2-1 in District 12-3A Division II, 3-4 overall) took a 2217 lead into the half.

Huntsville girls now 9-0 in District 18-5a tHe Huntsville item

Without coach Debbie Hightower at the helm, the Lady Hornets didn’t miss a beat Friday against Caney Creek at the Paul Bohan Hornet Gym. Powered by a 15-kill and 19-dig performance from senior Taylor Cunningham, the Huntsville girls won in straight sets for the second time this week, downing Caney Creek 25-13, 25-12, 25-17.

The Lady Hornets are now 28-5 on the season and are 9-0 in District 18-5A competition.

“The girls were all ready to go at the beginning of the game,” said assistant coach Margaret Bohannon, who filled in for Hightower during the match.

“They were keeping me calm and told me there was nothing to worry about. They played their game and they all played really well.”

Senior Missy Archie had eight kills and 16 digs on the night, while junior MarKayla Dickie had another outstanding night at the net. Dickie finished the match with seven assisted blocks and three solo blocks. Junior Amina Olajuwon also had three assisted blocks.

Senior Kori King, who missed the team’s last match against Livingston with a neck issue, returned on Friday to lead her team with 31 assists.

After playing their last three matches at home, the Lady Hornets will be tested on the road for their next three matches. The Huntsville girls travel to Willis on Tuesday, College Station on Friday and to A&M Consolidated on Oct. 21.

Kats defeat Lamar 2-0

By Kevin roDriguez For tHe Huntsville item

A goal in each half led the Bearkats to a 2-0 victory over Lamar on the road Friday night.

Jordan Jarzombeck opened the scoring and Allie Johnson added an insurance goal. Kylie Hambleton made four saves to lead Sam Houston to its first shutout of the season.

Sam Houston improved to 4-2 in Southland play and 5-8 overall.

Jarzombeck received a pass from Shelby McDaniel and opened the scoring in the 35th minute. The goal was her first of the season and the second of her career. Hambleton stopped three shots in the first half to keep the Bearkat lead intact.

Johnson netted a goal for the fifth consecutive match. The goal was her team-leading seventh of the season. She finished off a scramble in front of the net. Katie Ferrara was credited with the assist.

Friday night went as smoothly as the Hornets could have hoped for.

Needing a win in the worst way, Huntsville did just about anything it wanted to in all facets of the contest against Caney Creek.

The Hornets produced more than 500 yards of offense and held the Panthers to just 90 as Huntsville rolled to a 61-13 victory.

“We practiced hard all week. We just came out here and did what we do at practice,” Hornets junior wide receiver Jay Griffin said.

Huntsville (1-2 in District 18-5A, 4-2 overall) made its presence known from the getgo. A 34-yard run by senior tailback Morie Evans, followed by a 24-yard connection from quarterback Ricko Bennett to tight end Quindarius Kizzee set up Huntsville’s first score.

Evans ran the ball up the middle for a 6-yard score, then Bennett completed a pass to Kizzee for a 2-point

conversion.

Caney Creek (2-1, 3-3) couldn’t offer any resistance to the Hornets’ defense.

Huntsville senior linebacker Da’Cuan Jenkins got into the backfield for a pair of sacks on the Panthers’ first possession, which resulted in a three-and-out.

For most of the rest of the first quarter, neither team could generate any rhythm as the squads fumbled the ball away three times in a little more than a minute.

Following an interception by Corey Hightower, Huntsville capitalized late in the first.

On third-and-13, Bennett scrambled through a hole in the defensive line and beat several defenders on his way to an electrifying 27-yard touchdown run.

“We started well. That was the important thing,” Huntsville head coach Rodney Southern said. “The last couple of weeks, we hadn’t started well, but we did See Hornets, page 4B

Former Hornets coach shaw named to Huntsville Hornet Hall of Fame in ceremony By gene sCHallenBerg HuntsvilleitemsPorts@gmail.Com

After decades of service as a coach at Huntsville High School, former coach Doug Shaw was honored before Friday’s game. Shaw became the ninth entrant into the Huntsville Hornet Hall of Fame.

“Being around these kids keep me young,” Shaw said. “I could not stand the thought of sitting in my La-Z-Boy all day long. I’ll keep going as long as I can stay here.”

Shaw began his teaching and

coaching career in 1974 and then became a varsity football and track and field.

He was on the staff of Huntsville’s 1980 Class 4A football state championship team that was led by Hornets longtime coach Joe Clements.

Also on that staff were fellow Hall of Honor coaches Jack Armstead and Trevor Fountain.

Shaw eventually moved on from coaching to accept a position at Mance Park Middle School.

That was all the Hornets needed, but they were just getting started.

Huntsville scored three touchdowns, including a pair of Bennettto-Griffin passes in which the speedy receiver juked Caney Creek defenders on his way to 53- and 56yard catch-and-run scores.

“I was just running the ball and trying to get into the end zone,” Griffin said. “Everybody was doing well.”

Huntsville was able to gain big chunks of yardage on runs and passes due in large part to downfield blocking by its running backs and receivers.

“We had several key runs where the blocking was good, but the effort was even better,” Southern said.

Huntsville got a few more points when Caney Creek’s Bryce Carver caught a kickoff, but backed into the end zone and knelt the ball. Then Hornets kicker Oscar Ramirez booted a 42-yard field goal to give Huntsville a 41-0 lead at halftime.

The Hornets defense played as much of a role in the lopsided halftime score. Caney Creek only picked up three first downs and managed just 35 yards of offense. Huntsville forced a fumble recovery and snared an interception.

Due to Huntsville’s pressure at the line of scrimmage, the Panthers couldn’t get much going in the running game. It was evident with quar-

Following a brief retirement, Shaw was lured back into coaching by former football head coach and athletic director Mitchell Coey. Shaw was on the staff for the 2007, ’08 and ’09 football teams that reached the state football playoffs.

quarterback Bison Logan Freeman gave the Bulldogs all they could handle in the first half, rushing for 107 yards and throwing two touchdowns to receiver Matt Gilliam.

The second half was a completely different story, as the Bulldogs held Freeman to negative-4 yards rushing and only allowed the Bison to score seven points.

Bulldogs’ Linebacker Broch Saxton and the rest of the defense adjusted to the quarterback option read, which Buffalo ran very effectively in the first half, disrupting the Bison offense completely.

“We specifically looked at their quarterback,” Saxton said. “He was keyreading and pulling the ball out. As a linebacker, I had to see that and read the play and then come through whenever he didn’t see us. Overall, we came to play.”

New Waverly’s offense was just as impressive as their defense in the second half, scoring touchdowns on their first four possessions.

Bulldogs head coach James Lane said he couldn’t have been more impressed with his team’s performance on Friday night, as he was hoping to

terback William Martinez and the running backs getting stuffed behind the line of scrimmage often with just 10 yards on the ground through the first two quarters.

“They weren’t as physical as we were. It made it a lot easier,” Huntsville senior defensive lineman De’Quan York said.

The Hornets didn’t let the big lead keep them from taking their foot off the gas pedal in the second half.

With many of the starters getting rest on the sideline, Huntsville kept running the ball through Caney Creek’s defensive front. After a pair of big gains, Harold Johnson capped the Hornets’ first drive of the third quarter. A little later, Evans ran 57 yards up the sideline for his third touchdown.

Defensively, Huntsville didn’t let up.

helped the girls golf team win a state championship and guided former Hornet Audie Wyatt to a state championship in the pole vault this past spring.

Throughout his career in coaching, Shaw was on the staff of more than 30 teams that advanced to the playoffs.

“Let’s make one thing clear, good kids make you look real good,” Shaw said. “We have had good kids in football, track, of course in golf. You wind up just guiding them, not really teaching them.

You’ve just got to guide them in the right direction.

I’ve just been so blessed see more consistency from the team after their loss to Leon.

“I thought the offense played outstanding,” Lane said. “Not only the points, but the only time we didn’t score was because we shot ourselves in the foot.

‘Peanut’ (Humphrey) had a good night, Koby (Adams) had a good night and our offensive line got after it. That’s where we win or lose right there on the offensive line.”

Lane has put a lot of focus on simply executing plays correctly in practice and it was clear on Friday night that when the Bulldogs do execute they can be dangerous team.

“We lost three games by an average of four points, so that’s one play,” Lane said. “It all goes back to execution. I think tonight we clicked and there was a crowd here for homecoming and maybe that had an effect.”

Lane also stressed to his players the importance of blocking out the distractions of homecoming throughout the week and he was glad to see it that it ended up being a nonissue.

“You never know with kids,” Lane said. “We base our lives on 16-,17- and 18-years olds and they came ready to play tonight. I’m very proud of them.”

The Hornets allowed just 90 yards of offense. Additionally, Jenkins scooped up a fumble and ran it 66 yards for a touchdown.

It wasn’t until late in the third that Caney Creek got on the scoreboard.

Panthers junior defensive lineman Chase Kellar scooped up a fumble and ran it for a 31-yard score. In the fourth, Carver returned a punt 65 yards for a touchdown.

“I think we played well between the tackles,” Southern said. “That, I think, was the key. I think our inside guys played pretty well because their guys looked bigger than they did on film.”

The Hornets hit the road again next week to take on College Station (3-0, 5-1). The Cougars are tied for first place in the district standings with Bryan after beating Livingston 71-17 on Friday night.

with the kids I’ve gotten to work with all of these years.”

Marcus Evans, Huntsville High School golf coach and co-athletic director, presented Shaw with a plaque before Friday’s game.

Evans worked with Shaw firsthand over the past few years with the boys and girls golf teams.

“He’s an ideal coach because he can coach any sport,” Evans said. “Golf’s a good example of that because he’s not a true golfer. He knew what his role was and that was to let me deal with the technical coaching and give him

instructions about anything connected with how I wanted them to play, what types of drills I wanted them to do.

“He was also very popular with the kids. He related to them very well and he was a good motivator.

He had all of the intangibles a good coach needs to have. He did a wonderful job as an assistant coach of our golf program, just as he did with every other sport that he coached over the years.”

Also in the Hall of Fame are Paul Bohan, Nancy Hopper, Mance Park and Morris Johnson.
