School Board backtracks on masks An opt-out policy for face coverings is now in place. JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

City approves 4.7% tax rate increase
have the opportunity to opt out of the district’s emergency mask mandate for students, a decision reached by the School Board in a 3-2 vote on Tuesday, Sept. 14. School Board members Carl Persis and Ruben Colon voted against.
The matter came before the board after a three-judge panel of the 1st District Court of Appeal placed a stay on a ruling by Leon County Circuit Judge John Cooper, who found that the governor’s executive order banning school districts from requiring students
wear masks overstepped his constitutional authority, a ruling that was quickly appealed by the state. Parents involved in the legal battle now want the matter to be handled by the Florida Supreme Court. “We all want to be good stew-

The Ormond Beach City Commission passed a resolution 4-1 to raise the property tax rate by 4.7% for fiscal year 2021-2022 at its first budget hearing on Wednesday, Sept. 8. City Commissioner Dwight Selby voted against. The city’s new millage rate of 4.0308 mils includes a public safety vehicle and equipment replacement fund and two voter-approved general obligation bonds. The operating tax rate is 3.9128 mils, which is 4.7% above the rollback rate of 3.7370 mils. The budget for next fiscal year totals $101.7 million, which does not utilize any of the city’s reserves for operating expenses, according to city documents. In an editorial written by Selby to the Ormond Beach Observer, the commissioner detailed why he was voting against the tax rate increase: The city has $8.8 million in reserves, accounting for 25% of the operating budget, SEE COMMISSION PAGE 4

Jewish Federation’s Gloria Max leaves a selfless legacy of giving back Gloria Max is remembered by her generosity, work ethic, and relentless fundraising for those in need.
JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR
Gloria Max was a force to be reckoned with in the community. As the executive director of the Jewish Federation of Flagler and Volusia Counties, Max, despite her short stature, was like a “6-foot-6-inch champion boxer” in spirit, said Marvin Miller, the nonprofit’s president. Once
she got an idea in her head, she pursued it relentlessly. She was at the Federation’s Jerry Doliner Food Bank every day, Miller said, and it was her commitment to the nonprofit’s mission that impressed him from the very first time he met her 20 years ago. “People use that term — 24/7,” Miller said. “Well, that was in truth for her. She probably set the bar for 24/7.”
Max died on Friday, Sept. 10, after a six-year battle with cancer, days away from her 81st birthday. Remembered for her passion of helping others, and her persistent ways of fundraising for the Jewish Federation, Max, a native of Toronto, Canada, often remarked to many people that it was her job that was keeping her alive.

City increases water and wastewater rates
MacDonald House work OK’d
Ormond Beach water and wastewater customers will see a 1.8% rate increase come Oct. 1. The City Commission approved the increase in a 3-2 vote at its meeting on Wednesday, Sept. 8. The rate increase will translate to about 46 cents for water and 58 cents for wastewater, based on the average household usage of 5,000 gallons a month. The commission also approved a later 3.5% rate increase which will be effective on Sept. 30, 2022. Customers outside of the city limits will be charged 150% of the rate for residents. The city states that the increase will “provide the necessary financial resources to make critical improvements to the city’s water and sewer systems, pipes, pumps, treatment, etc., to ensure for efficient and effective service delivery.” City Commissioners Dwight Selby and Rob Littleton voted against the increase. Selby argued that he didn’t like the fact the city was using $4.6 million from the American Rescue Plan Act funds for infrastructure projects that the rate increase
The City Commission approved at its meeting on Wednesday, Sept. 8, a work authorization for the exterior renovation of the north side of the MacDonald House. The $70,000 contract to A.M. Weigel Construction Inc., of Daytona Beach, includes the replacement of the porch, porch roof and handicap accesible ramp. The total cost of the renovation to the north side of the house is over $181,000, according to a city memo, but the contractor had unspent funds from the prior work on the east, west and south sides of the house, as the restoration work progressed better than expected. The renovation is coming in 41% under budget, at $519,184, instead of $890,000.

should cover. Instead, he believed the city should use the ARPA funds for “extraordinary”projects and proposed an immediate 3.5% rate increase. “We’re getting $4.9 million of federal money under the American Rescue Plan, and that’s really a windfall to Ormond Beach,” Selby said. The ARPA funds, he argued, could be used for reclaim water storage to reduce the amount of effluent in the Halifax River. Last year, Selby said the city pumped 536 million gallons of reclaim water into the river, averaging
1.47 million gallons a day. The city is permitted to pump 6 million gallons a day. Mayor Bill Partington agreed with staff’s decision to use ARPA funds to offset a higher rate increase. The city will be tasked to reduce all discharge into river by 2030, per Senate Bill 64; However, Partington hopes that the state provides funds for future projects. “This is the best decision for where we are right now,” Partington said. “Certainly, all the other issues can be looked at in future workshops and next year’s budget.”

A
bout 200 citizens walked the Granada Bridge in Ormond Beach on Sept. 11, on the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, in memory of the 2,977 victims who lost their lives that morning. This was the first time the city of Ormond Beach hosted a memorial walk. Ormond Beach firefighters, many wearing their full firefighting gear, led the large crowd. Some crossed the bridge more than once, in recognition of the 110 steps firefighters had to climb on 9/11, a distance that totals about 2 miles. Ormond Beach Fire Chief Richard Sievers opened the short ceremony prior to the walk, which also included a proclamation read by Ormond Beach City Commissioner and Deputy Mayor Susan Persis. Sievers thanked those in attendance, and reminded them of the number of first responders who died in the attack. At the World Trade Center complex, the casualties included 343 firefighters and paramedics, 23 New York City police officers, and 37 Port Authority police officers.
We all have our own 9/11 stories, said Sievers; his wife, Sharon, is a flight attendant with American Airlines and had been on her way to work that morning 20 years ago. He said he knows the residents of Ormond Beach will never forget what happened on 9/11. “And I know the Fire De pa r t m e n t o f O r m o n d Beach will never forget the 343 firefighters that gave that ultimate sacrifice,” he said. The city is also raising funds for the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, on behalf of local first responders. The foundation’s Fallen First Responder Home Program aims to pay off the mortgages of law enforcement officers and firefighters who die in the line of duty, or due to an illness caused by 9/11, leaving behind young children. It was created in honor of New York Firefighter Stephen Siller, who died on 9/11 while responding to the attacks at the twin towers. The city has raised $726 of its $2,500 goal.

Sept. 11, 2001, started off as a beautiful day in New York City. Daytona Beach resident Kathy Pope remembers the air was crisp and cool. It was a sunny day, and above the city, there was a blue sky. At the time, she was working as a manager for IBM, and her office, which had a view of the Statue of Liberty, was located on the 43rd floor in the north tower of the World Trade Center. That morning she arrived to work early, around 8:15 a.m. She was scheduled to do a presentation that day, and she wanted to be prepared. But at 8:46 a.m., American Airlines Flight 11 crashed into the north tower, and everything changed. Pope is a 9/11 survivor who shared her story during a remembrance event held at Ocean Art Gallery, on Sept. 11, the 20thanniversary of the tragedy. Gallery owner Frank Gromling holds the ceremony annually, often attended by a small group of locals. Gromling doesn’t promote the event through the traditional methods; it’s too special for that, he told the estimated 15 guests in his gallery. He started the event in 2011 in his last gallery in Flagler Beach, and doesn’t foresee his efforts ending anytime soon. This year’s event was titled, “9/11 remembrance: We will not forget.” “As long as I have air inside these lungs, that will be the case,” Gromling said. FORGOTTEN STORIES
Pope was not the only survivor who spoke at the event. Retired U.S. Navy Capt. William Toti, who is also an Ormond Beach photographer, takes advantage of every opportunity to tell his story. He was in the Pentagon on 9/11, and lost several friends in the attack. Toti calls the attack on the Pentagon the “forgotten 9/11.” He shared that he is one of two people who have been interviewed several times for documentaries and news stories regarding what happened when American Airlines Flight 77 crashed inside the Pentagon, including a 2021 National Geographic six-episode series titled “9/11: One Day in America.” But, though the series was wellproduced and did a wonderful job of sharing survivor’s stories, Toti said, only seven minutes of the six-hour documentary were dedicated to the Pentagon. As such, some pieces of his story

from that day are never told. One is of the bag he is seen carrying on his shoulder on news segments from 9/11 as he ran outside the Pentagon trying to help the injured. In that bag was a first-aid kit, Toti revealed. He abandoned the bag once he realized it wouldn’t do much to help, and was only slowing him down. Two weeks later, it was returned to him. Toti also spoke about unity. The U.S. was never more united as it was on Sept. 12, 2001, he said. “How far have we come since then?” Toti said. “How great have we made such petty differences over the last 20 years? Have we learned nothing from that day? We’ve learned nothing from that day.” He left the audience with a question: What would the victims of 9/11 think about their sacrifice, 20 years later? HEROISM
When those in the North Tower were told to evacuate on Sept. 11, 2001, Pope said everyone did so in an orderly fashion. They grabbed their personal belongings and helped each other — including the disabled — walk down the flights of stairs. Women took off their heels, Pope included. Once outside, they were instructed by police officers and firefighters to stand in a nearby shop as they headed inside. Seven of Pope’s employees decided to reenter the building to recover critical data tapes for their clients; Pope never saw them again. “It was their way of helping to protect people,” Pope said. She and her remaining team of employees were outside when the second plane hit the South Tower. Pope lost three more employees who were hit from people who jumped from the towers. In the 20 years since the attacks, Pope said she has lived every day like it is her last. As she held up photos of her family, she spoke about the moments she would have missed if she hadn’t survived: her son’s wedding, the birth of her first grandchild, the birthdays she has been able to celebrate. She gives thanks every day that she is able to be here, Pope said.

VCS now allows a parent opt-out Commission approves 4.7% tax rate increase for student face covering policy CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
ents opt out of the district’s face covering policy, though she stated several times it went against her belief that masks protect students. She mentioned that a student walkout was scheduled last week at a local high school to protest masks, that students have been encouraged to wear shirts with anti-mask slogans and that teachers and principals have been harassed over the policy. A video of a mother causing a disturbance at Pathways Elementary over the policy circulated on social media. “Our classrooms, our campuses, are not to be used as places of contention,” Cuthbert said. “They are sacred ground. They are safe, learning environments for all.” Some parents who spoke at
“In the future when your child gets quarantined because they’re not wearing a mask, know that you accepted that risk as a parent, and that’s OK.” RUBEN COLON, Volusia County School Board member
the meeting disagreed with the board’s decision to allow parents to opt out of the policy. DeLand mother Elizabeth Atlee Hall told the board that when members of a community choose personal freedom, the community must rely on governing bodies to establish policies for the good of everyone. She didn’t agree with the board backtracking on its stance because people refused to follow the policy. Previously, all students, with the exceptions of those in pre-K or ESE, had to wear a mask while on school grounds, unless they obtained a medical opt-out. “I just think this is a mistake,” Hall said. “We’re not giving it a chance. We have more cases now than we had all of last year combined, and we’re just going to throw it all out.” Others felt like the contention in the community rose from the board’s decision to mandate masks in the first place. Christine Ortiz, a DeLand teacher and parent, said she had not had one COVID-19 case in her 41-student class, and none had been quarantined either, despite only about five students wearing a mask consistently. “As a teacher, I am embarrassed about what is happening and the actions of the board turning faculty and staff against each other, causing division,” Ortiz said. “... As a parent, I am disappointed that you feel you know what is best for my children.” Colon said that while COV-

ID-19 cases are decreasing, there is still a high number of schoolaged children contracting the virus. He warned parents that, based on the quarantining protocols the district adopted from the Centers from Disease Control and Prevention, children who are exposed to COVID-19 and are not wearing a mask will be sent home to quarantine. Children who have been exposed but are wearing a mask will not. “In the future, when your child gets quarantined because they’re not wearing a mask, know that you accepted that risk as a parent, and that’s OK,” Colon said. “… Nobody is picking on your child because this is very clear that if they are exposed they will be going home for five days until they come back negative, where a student who is wearing a mask will not be going home for five days.” Parents who choose to opt out of the policy can do so via their Parent Portal accounts, if they have signed up, where they may electronically complete the opt-out form. Parents can also print out a form at https://bit. ly/3Ch75D1 The employee and visitor mask policy will remain in effect until Oct. 15. Should masks be required?

which far exceeds the city’s baseline of keeping reserves at 15%. “Don’t get me wrong: Being fiscally careful is a good thing,” Selby wrote. “But taking money out of your pockets to put it in the city’s savings account is unacceptable. It’s your money, and it should stay in your bank account until the city absolutely needs it.” He proposed a 2.35% increase, but his proposal did not gain support from the commission. Mayor Bill Partington said at the Sept. 8 meeting that the 4.7% increase will serve to cover inflation, and that cities — particularly coastal ones — often have more than 15% of reserves available in case of storms or other unforeseeable events. He considers 15% to be minimum threshold for reserves. “That is like the ‘do not go below’ level,” he said. “There’s no reason we shouldn’t have a 25% or 30% reserve to protect our residents. I’m very, very proud that we have what we have, and I wouldn’t be bothered if it went a little higher because protecting our residents I think is our biggest responsibility up here.” Only one resident spoke at the meeting against the city’s proposed millage and budget. Joe Hannoush, who serves on the city’s Budget Advisory Board, said he agreed with Selby’s stance and
that the city had the funds necessary to go to rollback. It’s “budget 101” to never use one-time dollars for recurring expenses, said the mayor. The Budget Advisory Board recommended the budget 4-1, he said, adding that “it’s not totally made up of novices on that board.” Hannoush was appointed to serve on the board in 2019 by Commissioner Rob Littleton. “Nobody likes increases, but when you have a fiscal responsibility to protect your city, don’t play political games with the budget,” Partington said. “Do what is right for your residents and fund your priorities.” Selby said in an emailed statement that he stands by his position that the tax increase is not necessary. “The city has more than enough excess cash reserves (well above the minimum required by policy) to fully fund all planned programs and positions,” he said. “I am a public servant (not a politician) and because I serve the public and not the bureaucracy or myself, I do what is in the best interest of the taxpayers even when it’s not popular with staff or the rest of the City Commission.” The final budget hearing is scheduled for 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 22. Should the city raise taxes? Send letters to jarleene@ormondbeachobserver.com.

FIGHTING FOR YOUR CAUSE
Max and her husband, Ray, moved to Volusia County in 1983 after 15 years of operating a gourmet shop in West Virginia. Inspired by her Polish immigrant father, Mendel Goldstein, Max built the Jerry Doliner Food Bank into what it is today: It feeds around 25,000 people a year regardless of race or religion using only donations; the nonprofit has always absorbed administration costs. “Gloria just was relentless as far as supporting all of those things — supporting the needy,” Sumner said. “She was definitely someone you would want on your side.” Sarah Crane, a friend of Max, drove her to her chemotherapy appointments. It was then, Crane wrote in a statement, that she became aware of Max’s “larger than life presence.” Max mourned the time it took for these appointments because they inconvenienced her productivity, Crane said. There were phone calls to return, rents to pay, and Max wanted to go back to work. On those days, Crane’s car would become Max’s temporary office. ‘SHE WAS SELFLESS’
Whether it was making sure 7,000 children in Volusia and Flagler counties had a backpack full of
school supplies, ensuring families had enough to eat at Thanksgiving, Christmas and Hanukkah, or raising funds for people affected by natural disasters, Max never lost sight of her mission. Radio host Big John first met her in the mid-1990s and said Max’s life mission was to help the poor in the community “It was hard for her to cut anybody any slack because she was a worker,” he said. “I referred to her as the Mother Teresa of Volusia County because she absolutely was. She was selfless. That’s the number one word: selfless.”

L ETT ERS Airport runway suffer with increased leaded extension is not needed and jet fuel emissions. Three Dear Editor: The case for the airport runway extension made by airport business CEO David Slick in the Sept. 2 edition of the Observer merits closer examination. None of the Ormond Beach Municipal Airport services he references require a longer runway. None of the referenced businesses utilize local aircraft to receive materials or ship products. That leaves only his safety argument. While longer runways are safer in theory, the existing runway length (FAA approved) has provided optimum safety over the decades for recreational and flight training aircraft. Mr. Slick does not reveal that the runway extension will allow larger, heavier, noisier aircraft including jets. The proposed extension is part of a master plan to transition to an executive airport with no public mandate to do so. Larger aircraft currently utilize longer runways at the Daytona Beach and Flagler County airports. We are not told the airport, as an “economic development asset,” is currently a half-million dollars in debt to the city’s general fund and has been for years, with new red ink resulting from the recent closure of River Bend Golf Course annual airport operating costs over $275,000. Leisure Services pays $60,000 annual rent for the recreation fields on north airport property. Thirty-four Ormond Beach subdivisions are located within Volusia County’s 5-mile Ormond Airport Overlay District. Exponential losses to those homeowner property values would result from a larger, busier, noisier airport. Air quality would

elementary schools and a middle school are within the overlay district. The 127,000 annual airport operations currently reported by the city calculate to a takeoff or a landing every two minutes, 12 hours a day, every day of the year. When the last runway extension proposal (of Runway 17-35) came up for a vote in 2004, a huge community turnout sent an overwhelmingly clear message: “We do not want a larger, busier, noisier airport.” Mayor Partington and Commissioner Kent joined a 5-0 vote in 2005 to reject the extension. Seventeen years later, that clear citizen mandate against runway extensions has not changed. BOB BLANKENSHIP Ormond Beach
Editor’s note: The city states that the general fund dollars lent to the airport fund are repaid as funds become available. These loaned dollars cover operating shortfalls and provide grant match dollars.
Where has Ormond Beach history gone? Dear Editor: Ormond Beach is fast becoming a city without a past. A fire took the Ormond Garage in 1976 and its history of racing on our beach. In its place stands a bank building. The Hotel Ormond, built in 1887 by our pioneers John Anderson and Joseph Price, fell into disrepair and was demolished in 1992. In its place stands a condominium building. The Union Church, originally
founded in 1883 by settlers of the New Britain colony, was demolished in 1959. The second Union church, constructed on the same site in 1960 was recently demolished. In its place — an empty lot! The Loop, a beloved testament to our forested past, is fast disappearing to development. What will set Ormond Beach apart from any other beach community? Certainly not its T-shirt shops, or its resort crowds. We have neglected the very things that are our special legacy, that tell our special story. Those things, once gone, are gone forever. Who will know their legacy? Who will tell their story? Who will understand our loss? ALICE HOWELL Ormond Beach
‘It’s about priorities’ Dear Editor: I’d like to note that while I’m against government waste, I also know that there are important, needed county services and programs which cost money. I also understand that people are hurting right now. So perhaps the county government should look for revenue outside of the average taxpayer. Certainly, there are people making lots of money right now off all the massive development. Potential sources include impact fees and real estate tax on commercial property (with a threshold/ exemption for small businesses). It might be worth looking into assessment values for commercial property to make sure they’ve been updated to reflect increased market values due to zoning amendments. It’s about “priorities” (as mentioned by County Chair Jeff Brower). We want to make sure the county is doing all it can for
WALKING FOR FALLEN SERVICE MEMBERS On Thursday, Sept. 9, members of the Ormond Beach Fire Department walked 13 miles in honor of the 13 service members killed in Afghanistan.

The Ormond Beach Police
Department assisted with traffic control on their journey. The event was hosted and organized by Ormond Beach firefighter Robert Zalewski.
Dear Editor: In last week’s Observer, City Commissioner Dwight Selby stated: “The proposed General Fund (aka Operating Fund) for the city is $35 million. The proposed tax increase is $800,000. The city has $3.4 million in excess reserves. Cut the taxpayers some slack. Do not raise taxes. Use a quarter of the the excess reserves to fully fund the budget, and the city will still have $2.6 million in excess reserves.” I agree with Selby. There is no need to ask taxpayers for more of their money. Over the last year and a half, government, at all levels, put restrictions in place that directly hurt jobs. Many people lost significant income and are still feeling the impacts of the shutdowns. The federal government borrowed more money, printed out of thin air, which increases inflation. We have all felt that. Does it make sense to further increase government’s savings account balance in excess of 40% above the set policy minimum when taxpayers are still trying to get back on their feet? Not to me. Is 15% reserves too low? I think it is. Earlier this year I suggested raising the 15% minimum to 17.5 or 20%. The city can go to the rollback rate, increase reserve minimum and still have excess reserve balance. That is both fiscally responsible and the right thing to do.

$3 DOLLAR THEFT 8:16 a.m. — First block of North Yonge Street Petit theft. A 37-year-old Ormond Beach woman was issued a notice to appear in court after she stole a White Claw hard seltzer from a local convenience store. Police report the woman was seen entering the store and stealing the alcoholic beverage, valued at $3.72. The woman admitted to the crime. The store wished to pursue charges, and she was trespassed from that location. WIGGED OUT 3:58 p.m. — 700 block of South Nova Road Larceny. Last month, a 79-yearold Ormond Beach woman discovered nearly $3,000 worth of fraudulent charges on her bank account, and notified police of the theft. She told police that her purse was stolen while she was at work, and once at home, she saw that the majority of the charges were run through a mobile payment application, and a few through GoFundMe. The victim contacted a store owner who had accepted payment from her credit card. The store sells sold wigs, and the owner said an unidentified woman had come into the shop and purchased the entire inventory. The owner promised to refund the victim’s money, but never did.

BRIEFS Volusia man sprayed toddler with bleach A 31-year-old man was arrested on Saturday, Sept. 11, on child abuse and attempted arson charges after Volusia County Sheriff’s Office reported he abused a sleeping 4-year-old boy by spraying him in the face with bleach. He also soaked a bedroom of the home in tiki torch fuel and drove drunk with an infant and toddler unsecured in his car. Deputies responded to Mack Arline’s home on Avenue E near the Ormond Beach city limits after the child’s mother flagged down a Daytona Beach Police officer and showed the officer a video of the abuse. The mother said Arline “was heavily intoxicated and threatening to burn down the house and kill their children,” the press release states. Deputies found Arline backing out of the driveway with two children in his car. An 11-monthold baby wearing only a diaper was on his chest in front of the steering wheel and a 2-year-old child was sitting unrestrained in the front passenger seat. Both were taken to safety as deputies detained Arline, who VCSO reports smelled of alcohol and was not “completely coherent.” The 4-year-old boy was still inside the house, sleeping on the floor of one of the bedrooms. Arline was taken to jail. Deputies report tha he was also on inmate release status for fleeing or attempting to elude law enforcement. On Sunday, Sept. 12, he remained held without bond.

ilts and umbrellas were standard attire on Saturday, Sept. 11 as the 10thannual Ormond Beach Celtic Festival got started under a blanket of gray clouds. Skies released a steady downpour not too long after gates opened but that did not deter the revelers from enjoying traditional Celtic music and dancing, clan camaraderie and artisan wares. Musician and festival founder Chuck Spano was disappointed when COVID-19 halted the event in 2020 and postponed it from its usual weekend in spring to September this year but was pleased with the turnout this weekend. “Everyone was so happy to be back, we didn’t see anybody leave,” Spano said. “And Sunday was hot but great.” Food and beverage vendors, along with the artisans’ tents, crowded the area in front of the Pavilion stage.

Four environmental-themed paintings by Beth O’Connor are showcased in Ormond Memorial Art Museum’s pop-up window exhibit at 9 W. Granada Blvd., until Sept. 27. Informed by the artist’s experiences with nature, the featured acrylic paintings use vibrant colors and mark-making to depict a layered story of the interconnectedness between people and the environment. “I am inspired by nature’s intelligence and the fragile balance of our ecosystems. I am influenced by the energy of certain places and the transcendent beauty of small moments,” O’Connor said. Her love of the natural world started as a young child in the woods, creeks, and mountains of Tennessee. She later went on to study painting and design at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. After moving to Volusia County in 2006, she began working professionally as a mural artist for a decorative painting company. O’Connor fell in love with transforming spaces through the use of color, design, and various paint techniques. She developed her own style, with elements of surrealism, abstraction and patterns. The Ormond Beach resident’s current canvas work focuses on
endangered native Florida plants and wildlife. Her “Interconnected” painting is about a microcosm of the environment. “Every little piece has a role,” she said. “The blue heron is dependent on the fish, who are dependent on the insects and so on. There is a cycle of energy that makes it a perfect system until humans interfere.” O’Connor often exhibits her work locally, and has two of her paintings (“Desert Memory” and “The Sound of Small Things”) in OMAM’s “Holding Space” PopUp at the Performing Arts Center, located at 399 N. U.S 1. Presently, she is focused on creating murals, including her largest to date. Visit bethoconnorart.com. Find more information about OMAM’s pop-up window exhibit at ormondartmuseum.org.

hree games into the high school football season, Seabreeze (1-2) is still working on putting four strong quarters together. The Sandcrabs did it against Ocala Forest in a 40-8 triumph, but they started slow in a seasonopening loss to Spruce Creek, and on Sept. 10, they fell to University on a late score. The good news? Seabreeze has not played a district game yet. The Sandcrabs will open district play on Friday, Sept. 17, at Deltona. A late 9-point rally carried University to a 27-23 victory at Daytona Stadium. Titans quarterback Tazz Figueroa scored on a 2-yard run with 45 seconds left. “I feel like we started slacking,” Sandcrabs wide receiver Peyton Schofield said. “We thought it was a done-deal game. We need to fix the small details to make the bigger things better.” After University jumped out to a 14-0 lead, Dimitri Campbell’s long kickoff return set up brother Denali Campbell’s touchdown catch from Blake Boda to put the Sandcrabs on the scoreboard. Seabreeze went ahead 16-14 at the half as Toma Pouncey ran for a touchdown and Mason Motto kicked a 25-yard field goal. A onehanded touchdown catch by wide receiver Tashod Troutman closed out the scoring for the Crabs. “It was the highlight for me when I caught the touchdown,” Troutman said. “We just got to get better at working collectively. Once we work together as a team, we will be number one.”

Mainland regroups after losing second close game BRENT WORONOFF STAFF WRITER
Mainland could easily be 2-0 instead of 0-2 this football season. After falling to area rival Spruce Creek 10-9 on a late field goal Sept. 10 at Daytona Stadium, the Bucs could lament a series of “what ifs.” What if three turnovers didn’t derail Bucs’ drives? What if they didn’t have an extra-point kick blocked early in the fourth quarter?

Are you an innovative self-starter? Are you persuasive, energetic, and focused? Do you build strong relationships?
But the biggest “what if” was a snap that went over the head of Mainland’s punter which gave the ball to the Hawks deep in Bucs’ territory with less than 5 minutes left in the game. Mainland coach Travis Roland said the Bucs were missing their regular long snapper, who was hurt. Spruce Creek converted the miscue into a 23-yard field goal by Aiden Lanier with 2:04 remaining to put the visitors up 10-9. The Hawks’ defense then finished the job, keeping the Bucs

We wanted them to pass the ball. We did everything we could do.” Mainland does not have an easy game on the horizon to work out the kinks.
