Man sentenced for murder, burning body in Redland

By AMALIA KORTRIGHT Bureau Chief

A Montgomery man was recently sentenced to decades in prison for killing a man and attempting to dispose of the body in Elmore County, according to a recent announcement by the Montgomery County District Attorney’s office.

Christopher Brian Cearley, 34, who lists an address on Hialeah Lane, was convicted of capital murder and

flames.

Cearley was arrested the following day.

“This was a truly despicable crime, and I am extremely pleased that justice was served in this case,” Montgomery District Attorney Daryl Bailey said. “The length of Christopher Cearley’s sentence ensures that he will never be able to harm anyone else, and our streets are a little safer now that this violent criminal has been removed from our community.”

City votes to vacate Gaddis Street

Police: Millbrook officer nearly struck during car chase

By AMALIA KORTRIGHT Bureau Chief

Wetumpka officials unanimously voted to vacate undeveloped parts of Gaddis Street during a regularly scheduled city council meeting Monday.

Officials voted on the resolution after Keith Taylor requested the action. Taylor said Gaddis Street runs through a commercial piece of property that he owns, and vacating the street will allow room for future development on the lot.

“We (couldn’t) do anything with it until those things are closed, because of the way the street and the alleyways run through it,” Taylor said. “It’s all one big block of property now.”

Deatsville couple donates plane to tech center

By AMALIA KORTRIGHT Bureau Chief

A

local couple donated a valuable piece of equipment to students of the Elmore County Technical Center’s newly established aviation program Friday.

Elmore County Career and

Technical Education Director Jimmy Hull and aviation students met with James and Faye Hester, of Deatsville, at the Wetumpka Municipal Airport to thank them for the Challenger II airplane that was gifted to the school.

“I just want to emphasize how grateful we are to Mr. and Mrs. Hester for giving us the plane,” Hull said. “We just want to use it to help the kids.”

Cleveland Wallace, 33, was arrested by the Millbrook Police Department and charged with attempted murder on Wallace Sept. 26.

Police identified Wallace as a Prattville resident.

However, court documents list Wallace’s address on Covered Bridge Parkway in Millbrook.

‘Ms. Myrna’ retires as Wetumpka children’s librarian

By AMALIA KORTRIGHT Bureau Chief

Wetumpka children’s librarian Myrna Hays, affectionately known by many as “Ms. Myrna,” worked more than 20 years, two months and three days before her retirement Sept. 26. A celebration was held in her honor that afternoon.

“I’ll miss it, but it’s time to go,” Hays said.

During those two decades, library director Susan Hayes said Hays has been successful in one of the library’s most important goals: to make reading fun at an early age.

“It increased the love of reading, and the love of coming to the library. There’s a lot of laughter and a lot of fun,” Hayes said. “She has crafts all the time, and brings in special guests.”

Officer the Coosada Police Department in pursuing a blue Ford Explorer that afternoon. Coosada police chased the vehicle down Alabama River Parkway.

“From what I understand, the Coosada police officer attempted to stop the car for a traffic violation and the driver refused to stop,” Johnson said. “As the pursuit entered our jurisdiction, radio traffic indicated that the offender was throwing items out of the vehicle and may be armed.”

Johnson said Millbrook police put spike strips at the border of Elmore and Montgomery Counties in an attempt to stop the car. Wallace turned to avoid running over them, and nearly hit the officer, who had to jump out of the way, police said.

“For a brief moment, I thought he’d struck our officer, but I saw our officer roll back up and run to his vehicle,” Johnson said.

Wallace kept driving, police said, and was pursued by officers throughout Montgomery. He was later apprehended south of Southern

Boulevard.

Johnson said he was “extremely thankful” that the officer was not injured, and commended other Millbrook officers for their professionalism. He also thanked the Coosada police, the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency and ALEA’s aviation unit for their assistance.

“Everyone did their job, no one was injured and the offender is going to jail,” Johnson said. “Other than this young man stopping for law enforcement when he was first signaled to do so, this situation couldn’t have ended any better.”

Wallace was booked into the Elmore County Jail on a $60,000 bond. Attempted murder is a Class A felony. If convicted, Wallace could face life in prison.

At the time of his arrest, Johnson said the Elmore County Sheriff’s office had several outstanding warrants for Wallace’s arrest.

Johnson said Wallace will also likely receive additional charges from Coosada police.

James Hester said he had owned the plane for about a decade, but had gotten to the point where he rarely used it. “I’m not doing much flying anymore. When the technical school contacted me, it just seemed like a good idea,” Hester said.

According to Hull, plans are in the works for the aviation program to clean, refurbish and repair the plane to make it operational.

“Once it’s running, there will be all sorts of things that the students will do with it,” Hull said. “They’ll use it to be able to troubleshoot certain things so they can learn how to properly work on an aircraft.”

Hull said the school’s aviation program was started this fall. He said the addition of the plane will give students a closer look at aircraft mechanics and generate more interest in the program.

“Our kids will now have a chance to have an actual aircraft to work on at school, on campus,” Hull said. “So they will go back to their high schools and tell their buddies about it, which will then, hopefully, encourage more people to take the classes.”

Hull said he plans for the plane to be displayed outside the school, which he hopes will start a dialogue about career technical education within the community.”

“Everybody that drives by will see the plane and will think ‘wow, there’s a plane over there. What’s that all about?’” Hull said. “It’ll open up more conversations to explain what we do.”

Hull said the aviation program has longterm plans to incorporate a pilot component into its curriculum, and the plane might help reach that goal.

“There are a lot of steps to get to that point and a lot of hoops to jump through, but we hope to get there,” Hull said.

Wetumpka High School senior Ricardo Hoath said he’s excited to repair and remodel the plane with his classmates.

“Hopefully, we can get it running before the end of the year,” Hoath said. “We’re not going to end up flying it, probably.

We’re probably going to taxi it around a few times, make sure that everything works, double check it, do a corrosion check on it and that’ll be about it.”

Hoath said the plane will serve to teach future aviation students about the mechanics of an aircraft, and also thanked the “lovely couple” for their contribution.

Alabama Assistant State Superintendent Tommy Glasscock commended the partnership between the Hesters and the school, and said having an actual aircraft on campus shows that career technical education is more than just “shop class” and emphasizes STEM subjects.

“As you know, in education, our resources are limited. We can’t just go out and buy a plane, so to have people like this couple, who are interested in career technical education, is huge,” Glasscock said.

The Hesters said they were happy to help, and will regularly keep in contact with students to see what kind of progress they make on the plane.

“It’s exciting to see them want to fix it up. I can’t wait to see it when they get it completely restored,” Hester said. “It’s a fun little plane to fly.”

Librarian Hayes said was instrumental in expanding the weekly preschool story time, the summer reading program for elementary and secondary school students and coordinating student volunteers. Most recently, Hayes said Hays was able to have a certified therapy dog visit the preschool story time sessions each Tuesday.

“She was enthusiastic and not afraid to do crazy stuff with the kids,” Hayes said.

Hays said she has especially enjoyed watching the library’s younger patrons grow up over the years.

“I’ve got several now that have graduated college and are pursuing careers,” Hays said. “Anything we did with the kids, like the summer programs and all that, was special. (These are) special memories.”

Hays said much has changed, especially technology, since the beginning of her career in 1998.

“It’s given the chance to have access to the Internet and have credible databases through the Alabama Virtual Library. It’s made research so much easier,” Hays said. She said she is especially proud of the children’s room, on which she oversaw repairs and improvements after it was damaged in a flood about four years ago.

“We had a waterfall coming out of the ceiling, and we had (inches of) water. The only thing that was

not wet was the older part of the library,” Hays said. “We made a lot of improvements, added a lot of new books and added a lot of vibrant color. I’m so proud of this room.

I think it turned out great.”

When Hayes started at the library, she said Hays had been working there for two years. Hayes said she remembered how helpful Hays was while she was getting settled.

“She was just very welcoming to me when I first started, and I’ve loved working with her,” Hayes said.

While she will not be employed with the library, Hays said she plans on being a frequent visitor and volunteer. Part-time librarian Cathy Saylor took the position as children’s librarian the following day.

Saylor described the position as her “dream job,” and said she was looking forward to starting.

“I’m excited to get started and try and continue Ms. Myrna’s traditions and make some new ones,” Saylor said.

Hays said the library is a valuable source of education, and wanted one of her last messages as the children’s librarian to be to visit regularly.

“It’s a great resource if you don’t have the money,” Hays said.

“You make all kinds of wonderful friends and (meet) interesting people. It’s just a great community member.

I think the library is the heart of the community.”

Towards a less angry politics

“W

hen angry, count to 10 before you speak; if very angry, count to 100.”

If only we followed the advice of the Founding Fathers.

Thomas Jefferson, who expressed this sentiment, knew first-hand how politics can lead to indignation.

Today, one glance at cable news or Twitter affirms that we too are accustomed to an angry politics.

What Jefferson also understood, and what I am worried we too often forget, is that anger in politics is to be avoided and tempered, not embraced and weaponized.

In most spheres, we attempt to tame this emotion. For some reason, however, we give anger in politics an out. We should not be so accommodating.

Why? For one, anger is inherently selfish. According to Aristotle, anger is “a desire, accompanied by pain, to take apparent revenge for apparent insult.” Anger arises when we feel personally wronged, and it seeks revenge, not resolution.

Since we are inherently selfish beings who regularly feel mistreated, anger is easy to provoke. It is no secret that human anger is incredibly fickle–simply being cut off in traffic (perhaps a three-second delay) elicits a bombastic reaction from many of us. Knowing our tendency towards irrational and unhelpful behavior when angry, we ought to reject our instinct to be led by anger in

PARKER SNIDER Columnist politics.

Another reason we should work towards a less angry politics is because we know history. We know that it is the anger of native Germans against Jewish success that drove the Holocaust. We witnessed the rage of jihadists against the United States in the attacks on September 11th. The simple ability for anger to propel such evil, as demonstrated by these events and countless others in history, should give us pause before we let this emotion into our politics.

James, the brother of Jesus, seems to confirm the problems with human anger when he writes “the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God.” Many biblical authors, in fact, echo this sentiment. Solomon writes in Ecclesiastes that “anger lodges in the heart of fools,” and Paul, in his letter to the church at Colossae, implores believers to eliminate anger from their mouths.

One believer who took these demands seriously, Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., describes his battle with anger in his autobiography. He writes, after one particularly eventful day, “I went home with a heavy heart. I was weighed down by a terrible sense of guilt, remembering

that on two or three occasions I had allowed myself to become angry and indignant.

I had spoken hastily and resentfully. Yet I knew that this was no way to solve a problem.”

King, one of the greatest change-makers in history, knew perhaps the most important truth about anger–it isn’t effective. As evident by the current political atmosphere, anger creates bitterness and divides, making change of the whole impossible. Anger turns people off, makes ideas easier to reject, and does little more than rile up bitterness from those who think similarly.

King knew what I hope we soon learn –anger has never changed a heart.

Even so, politics will always engender anger. What matters is what we do with it. Will we let what is meant to be a temporary emotion permanently consume us? Or will we transform that anger into action that is tempered, unifying, and able to drive change in this mad world?

We’ll see.

Letter to the Editor

Pandering to people of color Dear Editor, Black ministers and black churches have long been the focal point of white politicians from all political parties pandering to people of color and this election season is no different.

Courting ministers and appearing at black churches are fertile ground for white politicians trying to convince minority voters they actually care about their issues and concerns.

In the 2016 general election, both major party presidential candidates pandered for

the black vote. Black pastors opened the church doors for Hillary Clinton to engage in the standard rituals to court the black vote. This usually meant paying the “lip service” to make black voters at least feel important whether or not you actually planned to do anything to improve their lives.

Donald Trump visited a black church in Detroit addressing a service at Great Faith Ministries Church. There he was seen hugging and greeting churchgoers and he actually stated, “We’re all brothers and sisters and we’re created by the same God. We

must love each other and support each other and we’re all in this together.” How’s that been working out for our nation under his leadership?

Instead of the typical meaningless pandering that occurs, a recent Facebook post I read may have provided a more realistic message. It read: “Dear white politicians, do not go to black churches and tell us how much you hate racism. Go to white churches and tell them.”

Barnett begins as EMA director

By AMALIA KORTRIGHT Bureau Chief

Recently hired Elmore County Emergency Management Agency Director Keith Barnett began his first day on the job Monday. Barnett previously spent more than two decades working with the Montgomery Police Department.

Barnett said he has “big shoes” to fill, and is looking forward to carrying on the work of former EMA Director Eric Jones.

“Eric Jones did an outstanding job for many years as the EMA director.

There’s nothing (broken). It’s going to be a matter of me coming in and, hopefully, picking up from where Eric left off, trying to take it from here and make it even better,” Barnett said.

Barnett said he’s also looking to emphasize the ECEMA’s communication with the public. In addition to weather emergency alerts, Barnett said he wants to make the community more aware of the services the ECEMA offers.

“I’d really love for the community to like us on Twitter, and things like that, so we are the go-to when it comes to when it comes to situations going on in Elmore County, and we’re getting them the information with they need,” Barnett said. “There are so many resources that the EMA center offers.

Construction approved for new Head Start facility

By AMALIA KORTRIGHT Bureau Chief

The Wetumpka Planning Commission gave its final approval to the Community Development Institute for the construction of a new Head Start early education facility on 286 Queen Ann Road during a special called meeting Sept. 24.

Wetumpka City Planning and Program Director David Robison said there is already a building on the property, but the new one will be a more modern facility with more classrooms.

Community Development Institute site manager Gail Surles said the new building will include seven classrooms and an outdoor playground. The old building will be converted into administrative offices. Construction is expected to begin later this fall.

Surles said the Head Start program

currently operates out of the former Wetumpka Junior High School building.

In 2017, the old Head Start building was closed due to safety concerns by the Federal Administration of Children and Families while operating under the Elmore Community Action Agency.

It was taken over by the Community Development Institute shortly after.

During an earlier meeting in September, Robison said the planning commission heard concerns from adjoining property owners from Stone River Loop about drainage that runs from Stone River loop across the property on Queen Ann Road.

“They were concerned about how the project might affect that drainage, so we postponed deciding on it for two weeks, to take a further look at the drainage,” Robison said. “Based off of the input of public works and some other folks, we resolved that.”

Wetumpka library launches homeschool book clubs

By AMALIA KORTRIGHT Bureau Chief

The Wetumpka Public Library is starting monthly book clubs for homeschool students, beginning this week.

“We’re going to read a book a month, and we’re just going to talk about it,” new children’s librarian Cathy Saylor said. “It’s an opportunity to get together with kids who they might not have met.

When you homeschool, you do your own thing at home. The kids interact, discuss a book and get together with other children.”

According to Saylor, the library will offer three groups for elementary, middle and high school students. All meetings are scheduled for 1 p.m.

The elementary session school is set for Oct. 3, the high school session is set for Oct. 4 and the middle school session is set for Oct. 9.

“The books will be chosen accordingly to content and reading ability. We had parents tell us what levels their kids are reading at. These homeschooled kids read well,” Saylor said.

Saylor said they are aiming to hold sessions during the first part of each month, to make it more convenient for parents and students and account for holidays.

Saylor said she was inspired to start a book club from her personal experiences, as well as the amount of homeschool students who visit the library during school hours.

As a member of a book club herself, Saylor said she has seen firsthand how they bring people together.

“I love to read. To sit down with young people and have (everyone) read a book, and to be able to talk about it and share our thoughts and ideas, and learn about new places, history and vocabulary. It’s something I love,” Saylor said. “To interact with them in that way is just going to be a lot of fun.”

The specific dates, times and books are listed online at Wetumpkalibrary.com.

Briggums welcome JD The Briggum family welcomed JD, a diabetic service dog for their soon-to-be adopted son, Lane, 4, on Tuesday morning.

The family was connected to JD through Diabetic Alert Dogs of America. Because the deadline to pay for JD was moved up, the family raised funds from the community. ‘There were lots of tears, mainly ecstatic,’ Lane’s mother, Angie Briggum said. ‘We’re super happy to have him home.’

Owner Paula Cardwell is currently placing the finishing touches on the meat-and-three and breakfast restaurant, Anna’s Place, which is projected to open Oct. 8. The restaurant is in memory of Cardwell’s daughter Anna, below, who died in 2012.

‘Something good’ Anna’s Place opening in memory of owner’s daughter

By AMALIA KORTRIGHT Bureau Chief

A

local mother is getting ready to open a restaurant in memory of her daughter, 20-year-old Anna Catherine Cardwell, who died in 2012. Paula Cardwell said she is aiming to open Anna’s Place, located at 10380 Holtville Road in Deatsville, on Oct. 8.

“Anna Catherine loved this community, and the community loved her. She was one of those outgoing, bubbly, never-met-astranger, cool person,” Cardwell said.

Cardwell said she had always wanted to do something in Anna’s honor, but didn’t get the idea to open a restaurant until speaking with a customer at Lake Pharmacy, where she works as the manager.

“I was talking to a customer one day, and she mentioned that she had this property. It used to be a daycare, but she wanted to do something with it,” Cardwell said. “I thought, with the

“Anna Catherine loved this community, and the community loved her.”

— Paula Cardwell restaurants in this town, you’ve got pizza, Mexican and Subway.

And the community’s growing like crazy.”

Cardwell said Anna’s Place serves breakfast and meatand-three meals for lunch. The restaurant offers dine-in and carry-out options, and Cardwell said the menu will change every day.

“I just wanted a place where you could come in and have a good meal and visit with the other people in the community,” Cardwell said. “I wanted something that was comfortable.”

Renovations on the building

started at the end of June.

Cardwell said she has never owned or worked at a restaurant, and has faced several challenges along the way. During the remodeling process, Cardwell said she broke her leg and has had to work around scheduling issues, but plans to persevere.

“Failure is not an option,” Cardwell said.

Cardwell said Anna was murdered in their home by a man who she had warned a friend against dating in February 2012.

Josh Caspari was later convicted of the murder and was sentenced to life in prison without parole.

From the pictures hung on the wall to the dining rooms, which were named after Anna’s pets, Cardwell said there are reminders of her daughter throughout the restaurant.

“That’s the most horrible thing, to lose a child. After she died, I kept saying, ‘God, there’s got to be something good that comes from this. It can’t just all be bad.

It can’t just be the memory of her being killed. Something good has got to come,’” Cardwell said.

“I feel like this is the something good that comes from it.”

The Wetumpka Haunted History Tours will feature 15 locations in the downtown area that are believed to be haunted. Chamber director Jerry Purcell said the tours this year are projected to be the biggest yet.

Haunted History Tours set for late October

By AMALIA KORTRIGHT Bureau Chief

The Wetumpka Area Chamber of Commerce, along with River Region Paranormal and Redland Paranormal, are getting ready to host the third annual Wetumpka Haunted History Tours. The tours are set to run from Oct. 24-27 from 7 to 9 p.m.

Wetumpka Area Chamber of Commerce Associate Director Jamie Young, who is affiliated with both paranormal groups, said the Haunted History Tours are walking tours that will lead visitors around 15 different locations in the city’s downtown area. “(They’ll) see the little-known, behind the scenes type things, like the basements and the third stories, and get to hear from the owners themselves about the different paranormal or unexplained occurrences that have happened,” Young said.

While she intends to keep the specific locations a surprise, Young said the tour schedule will be different from the previous years.

“Every year, so far, we’ve added new points of interest and whatnot,” Young said. “There’s always something new.”

Young said paranormal investigations were held at least three times at each location and are believed to have a high amount of ghostly activity.

In addition to the regular walking tour, Young said they are offering extended tours, which will include a paranormal investigation of the chamber of commerce building, located at 116 East Bridge Street, at the end of the night. If there is enough demand, Young said they may expand the investigations to include the Elmore County Historical Museum and the old Lancaster Hotel building.

Young said the idea for the Haunted History Tours was born about three years ago, after she noticed odd things happening at the chamber building and discussed them with downtown-area merchants.

“They all chimed in, saying that they had their own special occurrences at their buildings,” Young

said. “They said, ‘You know, it’s a shame that the general public doesn’t know about the different things that happen or the stories for each one of these buildings.’”

Since then, Young said the tours have attracted paranormal enthusiasts and history buffs alike.

“There are a lot of people that are just interested in the paranormal aspect. They’re hoping for some type of experience to go home with,” Young said. “And then there are other folks that are just more interested in the history aspect, who just love the buildings themselves and want to learn about those.”

Young said there may be reenactments of historical events at some of the locations. However, she said the tours are not a haunted-house type event.

“This is an honest-to-goodness, real haunted building,” Young said. “We

don’t need any theatrics at all. For us, it stands on its own experiences.”

Wetumpka Area Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Gerry Purcell said this year’s tours are anticipated to be the biggest yet.

“We’ve got more interest (in the tours), and we’ve got more interest in the extended tours as well, which is good for everybody,” Purcell said. “ Young said they are expecting well over 300 people to participate.

Currently, she said, 50 people have already signed up.

Visitors are encouraged to bring flashlights, ghost-hunting equipment and closed-toed shoes.

Video recordings are not allowed.

Purcell said food options will also be available.

The regular walking tour costs $15 per person, and the extended walking tour is $45. Tickets can be purchased online at Wetumpkachamber.com.

Cord says it was another great year for Crusin’ fer Critters

By REA CORD HSEC Executive Director

Even after some scheduling changes, it was another great year for Cruisin’ fer Critters at DÊjà Vu Billiards in Montgomery. This was the 16th year for Cruisin’ and we want to shout a huge thanks to the members, families and friends of The Predator’s Riding Club for their dedicated support to our shelter.

Through their hard work they raised another $8000 for our shelter and the pets we care for and we are incredibly lucky to have them as such strong supporters.

We also want to thank DÊjà Vu Billiards for hosting Cruisin’ and DJ G-Rivers for keeping the music going.

This year had a tremendous number of sponsors so please also thank these most wonderful businesses and individuals for stepping up to help make sure Cruisin’ was successful yet again: AES Industries, Inc; Tallassee Rehab; Custom Drywall; Susanne Zimbelman; Industrial Specialty Company, Inc; Joe Hudson Collision Center; Herren Hill Pharmacy & Gifts; T & T Excavation; Worthy Promotional Products; Wetumpka Tire Pros; Fuller Warehouse & Gin; SWAT Exterminating

We also thank all the riders and nonriders who came and supported this annual event and all those who donated items for door prizes, raffle and the live auction. The Predator’s Riding Club are true, animal-loving friends to our shelter and we can never thank them enough.

Remember, not only the Predator’s, but when you see a large group of motorcycle riders out, especially on a weekend, there is a good chance they are raising money for a good cause, for an individual in need or a non-profit just like ours and we think that is quite special indeed.

MIDSEASON SUPERLATIVES Patrick, Rawls lead the way after the first half of the season

By CALEB TURRENTINE Sports Writer

Six weeks have passed in the high school football regular season and as the postseason closes in, we take a look at some of the best performances of the first half of the season.

There has been plenty of good football to see across Elmore County this season but these are the players and moments which stood out since the beginning of August.

Most Valuable Player

The debate of what makes a player truly valuable has been around for decades. Does the player have to be on a good team? Is it about seeing how the team is impacted when the player is off the field?

With the number of players having a great start to the season, this award could still go to several players by the end of the year. However, after five weeks, it belongs to DJ Patrick of Elmore County.

Patrick has rushed for 735 yards in just five games this season, scoring 11 touchdowns on the ground. In the team’s four victories, Patrick has

averaged 168.8 yards per game. His 305-yard, fivetouchdown performance against Leeds has been one of the best by a running back in the state this season. He even plays on the defensive side of the ball and has elite speed as a return man.

Elmore County’s success has begun and ended with Patrick. If he keeps finding the end zone in the second half of the season, the Panthers will be headed back to playoffs for the first time since 2011.

Honorable Mention: Kolby Potts (Edgewood), Kalvin

Levett (Tallassee), Colton Adams (Wetumpka)

Breakout Player of the Year

There have been several players who have busted on to the scene this season.

Sophomore quarterback Braxton Buck (Holtville) and Alex Johnson (Edgewood) have been a big part of stopping the losing ways of See SUPERLATIVES • Page B4

REGION RIVALS Wetumpka, Stanhope battle for region lead

By CALEB TURRENTINE Sports Writer

The rivalry between Wetumpka and Stanhope Elmore may not need anything extra to boost the game’s emotion but this week’s matchup will have a little more on the line.

The two teams are the final teams in Class 6A Region 3 that are unbeaten in region play and the winner will take a big step in claiming the region title.

Wetumpka remains undefeated after a 49-23 win over Prattville last week. The Indians used a huge third quarter to score a season-high number of points in the victory. The No. 1 team in 6A has won three consecutive games against Stanhope Elmore but has new faces to its offense this season.

Golf tournament raises funds for Millbrook chamber

By AMALIA KORTRIGHT Bureau Chief

The Millbrook Area Chamber of Commerce held its Four-Person Scramble golf tournament at the Pines Golf Course on Thursday.

Director Elisa Johnson said the event served as the

chamber’s annual fundraiser as well as a way for locals to network.

“We have both members and non-members who participate, either by sponsoring different parts or actually out here with a team,” Johnson said.

About 80 golfers

participated. Among those golfers, Johnson said, were several students.

“One thing that’s a little unique about this is that we’ve got the high school teams. The Elmore County Economic Authority and (State) Sen. (Clyde) See GOLF • Page B4

Wetumpka senior Cory Anthony continued his hot start to the season with another top-10 finish at the Oak Mountain Invitational last weekend.

Anthony finished seven seconds behind the leader, running the course in 16:38.63. He finished fourth overall out of 264 total runners in the varsity boys division.

Junior Brennan Worrell finished 43rd after running the race in 18:29.71.

Freshman Jackson Walden and Junior Isaac Stubbs also finished in the top 100. Wetumpka finished 10th out of 24 teams in the standings but was tied for 8th with an average time of 19:00.

Holtville QB Drake Baker out for season

By CALEB TURRENTINE Sports Writer

After missing two weeks due to pain in his right elbow, Holtville junior Drake Baker has been officially declared out for the season, according to Bulldogs coach Jason Franklin.

Baker tore his UCL in his throwing elbow during the game against Handley on Sept. 7.

“He struggled with it for a little bit but I think he’s starting to realize that there are things that happen for a reason,” Franklin said. “And what doesn’t kill us, makes us stronger.

He’s a resilient kid and I think he will come back better than ever.”

Baker had surgery to repair the ligament last Wednesday but he’s staying positive despite the injury.

Baker said he expects to be able to start throwing in about three months but complete recovery from this surgery could take up to six months.

He said as soon as he’s cleared to return to school, he’ll be back to the practice field to help out where he can.

“I’m just going to try to get stronger at PHOENIX (Rehab) in Wetumpka, going there every day,” Baker said. “(I will) start with some small weights and curls in about two weeks.”

The injury came during the second quarter of the team’s loss to Handley.

Baker was running the ball and used his right arm to brace his fall. He See BAKER • Page B2

Elmore County Player of the Week

Rawls sets career-high vs. Prattville

By CALEB TURRENTINE Sports Writer

Wetumpka had its biggest offensive performance of the season last week in its win over Prattville. Tyquan Rawls led the way as the Indians scored a season-high 49 points as they erased a halftime deficit on the road to stay undefeated.

Rawls threw two touchdowns to E.J. Rogers in the first half.

He completed five of his eight pass attempts for just 44 yards in the first two quarters. Rawls added 60 yards on 10 carries but Wetumpka still trailed the Lions 17-14 at halftime. He is the Elmore County Player of

the Week.

“They knew our plays so we had to make some adjustments and change our hand signals and made it work,” Rawls said. “We come out strong in the second half of every O’Neal game but we just have to get going in the first half. They were getting down on themselves so I told them the game isn’t over with.”

Rawls and his offense responded in a big way with five consecutive touchdown drives to begin the second half. On the first snap of the half, Rawls scrambled to his

right before floating a 10-yard pass to Malik Davis. Davis made one tackler miss and ran the rest of the way into the end zone for the third passing touchdown of the game for Rawls.

“I don’t even know what to say about that,” Rawls said. “We hit a spark plug or something. We just stayed together and played as a team.”

After a rushing touchdown from Deangelo Jones, Rawls called his own number on Wetumpka’s third offensive snap of the half. On a read option, Rawls pulled the ball

away from Terrance Thomas and ran behind his blockers before sprinting down the left sideline for a 62-yard touchdown.

“We shoot for 5 yards per carry,” Rawls said. “But I looked at it, saw the play and knew it would be a touchdown.”

Rawls finished off the night on Wetumpka’s first drive of the fourth quarter. On a third down, Rawls found Davis in the right corner of the end zone for a 24-yard touchdown pass to give Wetumpka a 49-17 lead.

“Our team has historically been a big momentum team but I haven’t been a part of too

many like that,” Wetumpka coach Tim Perry said.

“Especially with the way we were struggling offensively in the first half.”

Rawls finished with 264 yards of offense and five total touchdowns. His four passing touchdowns set a career-high for him. The Indians averaged 12 yards per play on his 10 pass attempts and 12 rush attempts.

“He’s a guy that thrives in big moments,” Perry said.

“He handles pressure well and wants the ball in his hands.

He embraces that. I can’t say enough about how much he’s progressed.”

Ladorian Leonard (52) has been a force for the Stanhope Elmore defensive line this season.

Leonard leads strong defensive line

By CALEB TURRENTINE Sports Writer

Stanhope Elmore has taken huge strides on the defensive side of the football this season.

It has started with the play of the Mustang defensive line. Senior defensive tackle Ladorian Leonard has been at the heart of the improvement.

“It’s a pride thing,” Leonard said. “For it to be my senior year, the feeling of being able to run a defensive line that can dominate its opponents makes me proud.”

Last season, the Mustangs allowed 27.2 points per game and held their opponents below 20 points just three times. Stanhope has already surpassed that total this season as its opponents are averaging only 15.7 points per game.

“A defense is built with the defensive line,” Leonard said. “If the line doesn’t do good, it factors into winning or losing. If we can do our jobs, everything else falls in place.”

Baker continued to play, finishing out the first half before realizing how much pain he was in.

“I didn’t think it hurt as bad because of the adrenaline and kept throwing on it,” Baker said. “At halftime, it kind of locked up on me and I knew it was bad so I couldn’t play on it.”

Franklin is still expecting Baker to have a role on the team, even if he will not be back on the field this season. Baker also said he wants to make sure to be in touch with the team every day, helping sophomore quarterback Braxton Buck lead the offense.

“He can be a leader and role model for those guys still,” Franklin said. “He can be a positive influence on Braxton and help coach him up. He can be a leader off the field as well as he was on the field.”

Buck has come on to the scene and has a 1-1 record in his first two starts. Buck has thrown for 507 yards and eight touchdowns in four games.

“He’s improved a lot and I was happy for him,” Baker said. “It feels good knowing he’ll be there when I’m gone.”

Leonard has recorded 19 total tackles this season with seven of them coming behind the line of scrimmage. He has two sacks and has forced two fumbles. Leonard said his best individual game of the season came in a 35-12 win over Calera in Week 3. He finished that night with seven tackles, 2.5 for a loss and one sack.

The Mustangs have seen some struggles since the win over the Eagles, losing back-to-back nonregion games to Shades Valley and Smiths Station. Leonard said the team is focusing on the three plays separating the team from an undefeated record to understand every play can make a difference.

“We’re all chasing greatness and even perfection,” Leonard said. “One or two plays can change the outcome and define a game.”

Leonard said it is a tough mindset to keep when playing on the defensive line, especially in the physical games Stanhope has been a part of this season. However, he said at a certain point, the fatigue

disappears and adrenaline takes over.

“It gets to a point that you want it so badly, you’re willing to risk yourself to win a game,” Leonard said. “I can be the one to make that play or I can help someone else make that play that can change a game.”

Leonard is 5-foot-11, 260 pounds. He said he has had quick feet throughout his career but he has improved his hand skills against opposing offensive linemen. Leonard wants to continue to improve his game as he sets goals for the future.

“I want to make first team allmetro this season,” Leonard said.

“And I want to be playing well enough to show schools that I am interested in that I can play at the next level.”

Leonard already has multiple scholarship offers, including Faulkner and Huntingdon. He plans on sending out tape after the season to help his options grow before making a decision on where to play at the beginning of 2019.

continued from page B1

Before the injury, Baker had thrown for 427 yards and five touchdowns on just 23 pass attempts this season. During his career, Baker has a 60.9 completion percentage and has averaged 216.6 passing yards per game.

Baker said he was not expecting the results from the MRI to be so negative. He wanted to return to the playing field but he said his teammates’ encouragement has helped him get through the process.

“I was sad because I just wanted to come back,” Baker said. “I’m glad I’m a junior so I can come back. My whole team has reached out, telling me I’ll come back stronger next year.”

Baker said he will not play basketball this season for the Bulldogs as he recovers and prepares for next fall. Baker has seen interest from several FBS schools, including an offer from Memphis.

“Coach told me this isn’t going to mess up my recruiting,” Baker said. “I still have another year so I just have to keep working hard.”

With last week’s victory, Holtville has already surpassed last season’s win total and the Bulldogs have positioned themselves to play for something even more in the second half of the regular season. Holtville look to win back-to-back games for the first time since 2010 but coach Jason Franklin said the team is focusing on each week as an individual challenge.

“Last week is over with and whatever good things we did last week is in the past,” Franklin said. “This week is going to be a big deal for us. Getting back to region play and take a step forward to be relevant in the playoff picture.”

The Bulldogs, who host Lincoln on Friday, are coming off a 20-0 homecoming win against Dallas County, bouncing back from an overtime loss

against Elmore County the previous week. Holtville is 3-2 on the season now but will have to jump out of a hole after starting region play 1-2.

The Class 4A Region 4 standings are cluttered but teams can start separating themselves as the regular season comes to a close.

During region play, the home teams are 7-2.

Holtville is 2-0 at home this season and Franklin knows the importance of keeping that record intact.

“You don’t want to let one slip here,” Franklin said. “We have a quality opponent so we’ll have to be prepared. It’ll come down to assignment football and making sure we make the routine plays.”

Lincoln is the last undefeated team remaining in the region. The Golden Bears have wins over Leeds and Talladega in See HOLTVILLE • Page B4 File / The Herald

Wildcats have playoffs in sight

By CALEB TURRENTINE Sports Writer

Edgewood will be playing in its final home game of the regular season Friday night when it hosts Coosa Valley. The Wildcats will be recognizing their seniors and celebrating homecoming in the same night. However, the biggest focus will be on the football field as the Wildcats have put themselves in position to clinch a playoff spot with one more region victory.

“For us, it should take care of itself because if we win, we’re in,” Edgewood coach Darryl Free said. “We like the fact that we control our own destiny. And I’m glad that it does come on homecoming week so we can put away some of those distractions and focus on the job at hand.”

The Wildcats (4-2, 2-0 AISA-AA Region 1) have not made an appearance in the playoffs since 2015. This season has come as a surprise to many people around the state but Free appears to have the program in good standing once again.

“It would mean that things are headed back in the right direction,” Free said. “It would signify that Edgewood is back on the upswing and headed back to where it needs to be.”

Free said the coaching staff has not tried to undersell what is on the line Friday night. With three region games left to play, Edgewood could become one of the first

Edgewood’s Alex Johnson has made major improvements during his sophomore season according to Wildcat coach Darryl Free.

teams to clinch a playoff spot and the battle for a postseason home game would begin.

“The kids know it so we embrace it,” Free said. “We don’t put a lot of pressure on the game but the kids know what’s going on. We bring it up because I believe that they need to have something to strive for to keep that focus where it needs to be, especially coming into homecoming week. So what better way than to have a win-and-in type game to keep your focus.”

Coosa Valley will enter the game with a 2-5 record but is coming off a 14-7 win

Rivalry This will mark the 49th consecutive regular season the two teams will meet with one postseason matchup in 1984. Stanhope leads the all-time series 29-20 but has not beaten Wetumpka since 2013. Last year’s 27-point margin of victory was Wetumpka’s largest in the series since 1973.

In last year’s 40-13 win over the Mustangs, Tyquan Rawls, then playing primarily as a safety, had one of the team’s two interceptions with Malik Davis adding the other. Wetumpka had six rushing touchdowns but all of them were by players not on the 2018 roster.

However, the Indians have found success with their new backfield. Rawls, now at quarterback, has rushed for 581 yards and five touchdowns in the last three weeks. He is joined by running backs Deangelo Jones and Terrance Thomas. The trio could find just as much success this week on the ground as the team did against Stanhope last season.

Stanhope Elmore has struggled since the team’s last region game, falling to Shades Valley and Smiths Station in

over Cornerstone Christian last week. Quarterback Brayson Edwards totaled 183 yards offense, completing 63 percent of his passes and rushing for a touchdown.

Cody Eades also added a rushing touchdown, finishing with 143 yards on 11 total touches.

Edgewood is coming off a bye week and Free said that helped the Wildcats get a bit of a head start on this week’s game.

“Anytime you have an extra week, you want to take a look at what you have coming up,” Free said. “You take a couple of glances to see what they run. But Coosa

back-to-back weeks.

However, the Mustangs have the opportunity to swing momentum back in their favor as region play resumes.

Stanhope has allowed just 12 total points in two region games this season. However, in the loss to Shades Valley, the Mustangs allowed a season-high 35 points.

A.J. Williams ran for 112 yards and two touchdowns against the Mustang defense. If that defense shows up against Wetumpka this week, the Indians may be surpassing the 35-point mark set by Shades Valley.

Friday night’s game

will be Senior Night for the Mustangs as it is their final home game of the regular season. Stanhope has 14 seniors listed on its roster whowill be honored before the game at Foshee-Henderson Stadium.

A win for either Wetumpka or Stanhope would give the team an outright lead in the region and clinch a playoff spot in the postseason. No matter what the result is this Friday night, both teams will be expecting to be in the playoffs but winning this game will take a step toward hosting a game in the opening round.

Valley is a good team and their record doesn’t indicate the kind of talent they have on the field. It’s going to be a challenge for us and we’re looking forward to it.”

The Wildcats lost to Macon-East the last time they were on the field. Free compared Coosa Valley’s offensive scheme to the one the Knights ran two weeks ago.

“Coming off the Macon game, we were able to identify some weakness that we need to fix,” Free said.

“We feel like we’ve fixed some of that stuff but Coosa will present its own sort of challenges.”

Running

the top finisher for Wetumpka’s varsity girls squad. Key finished 75th overall, running the course in 24:25.99. Sophia Rawls and Ella Watson also finished in the top 100 as Wetumpka placed12th in the team standings.

Stanhope Elmore stayed closer to home, running in the Warhawk XC Challenge at Auburn University in Montgomery on Saturday. The Mustangs finished eighth out of 21 teams and had an average course time of 20:25.77.

Senior Freddy Patton led the way, finishing 32nd of 270 runners.

Patton ran the course in 19:20.64.

Sophomores Tajairus Brown and Keegan Rafferty finished less than a minute behind Patton and both placed in the top 50.

Holtville senior Rachel Lindsey finished 52nd in the varsity girls division. She ran the course in 25:27.14, finishing 84 seconds ahead of teammate Ana Segarra.

VOLLEYBALL Wetumpka goes 1-1 this week

Wetumpka split its results last week on the volleyball court with a win at Lee following a home loss to Benjamin Russell. Wetumpka defeated Lee for the second time this season, winning 25-16 in all three sets.

The Indians fell to Benjamin Russell in straight sets earlier in the week. Ryleigh Hamm led the team with 10 kills during the match. Erin Douglass had 25 assists, seven digs and four service aces.

Wetumpka sits at 5-8 overall with less than two weeks before the postseason begins.

ctober is a popular month for many reasons: the beginning of cooler weather, the candy, the decorations. However, for sports fans, this month stands above the rest, not only because of the quantity of events but also the quality of the athletes.

The first thing that will always be on the top of the list is postseason baseball. This year, October kicked off with two Game 163s to break the ties on top of the National League West and National League Central divisions. That was quickly followed up with the NL Wild Card game Tuesday night and the American League Wild Card game tonight. (Note: Nothing tests my pacemaker more than the Yankees in an elimination game.)

Both leagues look to be wide open. The AL has three teams that won 100-plus games in the regular season. The NL seems to be without an elite team but one of them has to make the World Series and it is anybody’s guess on who gets there.

The excitement of postseason baseball may not be your cup of tea but that is just the start of what October has to offer. We are less than two weeks away from the start of the NBA regular season. LeBron James is a Laker, the Celtics are good again and the Warriors are still the Warriors. To see them all fall at the hands of the Sixers this season will be something basketball fans do not want to miss.

The NHL season also gets started this month. There is nothing like playoff hockey but to be able to enjoy it next summer, start watching the sport this fall. If you do not have a team, pick one. Sure, the fighting is fun for a casual fan but the skill and athleticism of hockey players is not something you see in another sport.

But you may not be into the court or the ice either so let’s talk about football. And no, I do not mean our kind of football (yet). There may not be too many people here who are fans of soccer, but to those who are, it is another thing to add to the sports calendar this month. From vital league matches to Champions League matchdays to international friendlies, there is at least one match every day worth watching.

But if none of that gets you excited, I think I know what will.

College football continues with some of the best rivalries of the season.

The Red River Rivalry, the Third Saturday in October and the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party all happen this month. Those do not even include some of the best games this month, including GeorgiaLSU, Michigan-Michigan State and Washington-Oregon.

October is the month teams begin to separate themselves from the rest of the country. The contenders will pull away while some of the pretenders fall to teams no one saw coming.

Can Navy knock off Notre Dame? Could Alabama lose to Arka — OK, well let’s not get too crazy.

Superlatives their programs. However, this award will have to go to Tyquan Rawls of Wetumpka.

Even though he played in all 15 games for Wetumpka last season, Rawls is new to playing quarterback. And many people believed the No. 1 team in Class 6A would take a step back after J.D. Martin went down with an injury.

However, Rawls has stepped into the role and Wetumpka’s offense has not missed a beat.

The Indians have averaged 36.3 points per game. Rawls has thrown for 680 yards and rushed for 818 yards while accounting for 15 total touchdowns.

Honorable Mention: Braxton Buck (Holtville), Alex Johnson (Edgewood), P.J. Lucas (Wetumpka)

Play of the Year

On its homecoming night, Stanhope Elmore trailed 21-7 at halftime to Shades Valley.

With the offense needing to find a spark, senior Kerenski “2K” McGhee entered the game despite struggling with an injury throughout the week.

McGhee quickly found that spark for the Mustangs. On his first snap, McGhee broke

County. One more touchdown for each team had things leveled at 35 apiece as the rivalry game entered overtime.

The Panthers managed to score on a third and long with a pass to Shakwan Bickley before the defense held Holtville.

Elmore County came away with the win but anyone who was in attendance walked away knowing it was a Friday night well spent.

a tackle in the backfield and sprinted through the middle of the Mountie defense. That’s when his speed took over.

McGhee ran 90 yards on the right hash marks into the end zone to cut Stanhope’s deficit in half. While the play ignited the Mustang offense, Stanhope still fell 35-28. However, McGhee’s play gave the home crowd something to be excited about and will be a talking point for the fans for a long time.

Honorable Mention: Rawls TD run vs. Buckhorn

(Wetumpka), Shakwan Bickley TD catch vs. Holtville (Elmore County), Trey Jones interception vs. Fairhope (Wetumpka)

Game of the Year

There has been no shortage of thrilling action on the football field this season.

However, the best game so far this season is still easily ahead of the rest and will likely hold this spot until the season’s final whistle.

Holtville erased a 28-point first half deficit on the road to tie things up with Elmore

As the season rolls on, there will be more chances for upsets but there was an easy choice for the first half of the season. During Week 3, Tallassee traveled to Ozark to face the No. 4 team in Class 4A. The Tigers were coming off a double-digit loss at home to Greenville but they would not be denied.

Carroll had won 25 consecutive regular season games entering that night and led 21-7 in the second half.

However, the Tigers came storming back and tied the game on a 74-yard touchdown run by Kalvin Levett.

Quinton Jeter was called upon for the win. The senior kicker knocked through a 27-yard field goal with less than a minute to go to give Tallassee the win and break Carroll’s winning streak.

Surf fishing provides Isbell with new vocation

By DAVID RAINER Department of Conservation and Natural Resources

The pre-dawn light was sufficient for safe passage from the parking lot over a boardwalk to a beautiful stretch of beach on the Fort Morgan peninsula.

The early arrival guaranteed our party, led by guide Matt Isbell, would get to pick the spot where our surf-fishing adventure would have the best chance of success.

Isbell, better known as the Bama Beach Bum to all his YouTube followers, has developed a niche among fishing guides on the Alabama Gulf Coast. He has tried fishing from boats and piers, but he prefers the sandy beaches and surf where whiting and pompano roam.

The Wetumpka native moved to Gulf Shores for an insurance job, but his surffishing success led to a full-time guide business in March of this year.

“I started uploading YouTube videos in October last year and started guiding in December,” Isbell said. “I didn’t really plan on guiding. I started hosting online content just because I loved it, and I wanted to kind of see where it went.

“I had multiple people continually asking me to take them fishing. I did that initially. Then it got to be more and more to the point it was taking away from my regular job.”

Isbell decided to see if anyone would pay for his services. He learned there is a growing market for his kind of fishing.

“It kind of snowballed from there and really started picking up,” he said.

Isbell soon found out his guide business appeals to a wide variety of customers.

“Most of my clients are out-of-towners, a lot from the Midwest but from all over the country,” he said. “I’ve had a group from Guam that wanted to fish. They saw me on YouTube. Right now, I’m the only one uploading surf-fishing content to the internet, so that’s how some people find me. I get people of all ages and sizes, ethnicities, all the above.”

Isbell’s surf fishing started in earnest six years ago when he moved to the Alabama Gulf Coast.

“When I first started surf fishing, I was just trying to figure out what to do,” he said. “Like a lot of people in Alabama, I grew up bass and crappie fishing. When I

came down here, I just tried to figure out the fishing. I fished a lot of different ways — from boats, piers, canals, wherever I could access the water.

“Then I started surf fishing and I fell in love with it. I just enjoyed being on the beach and being able to bring home dinner.”

Isbell has refined his surf-fishing techniques in the last six years. Although he has learned to judge the surf and which areas produce fish, it’s really not a technique that infrequent visitors should tackle. He said learning to read the beach takes time, that most people find it difficult to pick up on the nuances that might lead to better fishing unless a lot of time is spent on the beach.

“The biggest thing I tell people to do is to stagger your baits,” Isbell said. “Make sure you cover a lot of water and try to locate the zone those fish are running in. Especially when you’re surf fishing, these fish are not hanging in one area like they do on a reef or pier or jetty. The fish in the surf are always moving, looking for food. But they are going to hang in a particular depth. That’s why you stagger your baits to try to find out what depth those fish are favoring. But it can change daily or week to week. You always have

to recalibrate to find the fish.

“If you know how to look for cuts, holes and bars in the surf, that can help, but most people have a hard time with it. But anybody can get out there and put baits in different spots and figure it out using that system.”

Isbell said a dedicated surf angler will need a variety of tackle to target the species that happen to inhabit the surf at any given time because different fish come to the beaches at different times.

“What we’re targeting is going to determine what tackle we use,” he said.

“But the most popular way is what we are doing, using pompano rigs with bits of shrimp and Fish Bites. We’ll use sand fleas (mole crabs) when they present themselves, and we can scoop them up (look for a sand flea rake at the local tackle shop). We had some really good colonies of sand fleas show up this year.

It’s a great bait and it’s free.”

On our trip, Isbell used 10-foot surf rods with 4000- and 5000-series spinning reels spooled with 20-pound-test braided line. Of the five rigs we used during our outing, we had a drop-hook rig with the 2- to 3-ounce weight tied to the bottom on three rods, while the other two were See ISBELL • Page B10

region play and improved to 4-1 on the season with last week’s win over Munford.

Lincoln connected on a 99-yard touchdown pass late in the fourth quarter to earn the victory.

During the victory, quarterback Javion Surles accounted for 291 total yards of offense and all four of the team’s touchdowns.

Franklin said Surles is the key for Lincoln’s offense and containing him will be the focal point for Holtville.

“He does a good job of keeping his eyes down the field when he’s scrambling and can make throws on the move,” Franklin said. “So, we can’t lose receivers on the scramble. We have to stay locked on.”

Holtville is coming off its second shutout of the season.

The Bulldogs have allowed 16.8

Coach of the Year

Elmore County’s has seen some good teams take the field this season. All five AHSAA teams are sitting at .500 or better through the first half of the season. The coaches have had a lot to work through and this award is still up for grabs for the end of the season.

However, at the midway point, Edgewood’s Darryl Free takes the nod.

Despite cycling through three head coaches in the last year, the Wildcats sit at 4-2 and are undefeated in region play. Edgewood has surprised the AISA as it looks to make the playoffs for the first time since 2015.

The Wildcats have a storied history but after being winless in the last two seasons, it looked like it may be awhile before finding wins again.

However, it appears Free has the program going back in the right direction.

points per game this season.

However, all 84 of its points against came in the team’s three region games.

“We’re just trying to keep it basic for them and let them just play football,” Franklin said.

“We’re just setting them up in the right position and allowing them to go make plays.”

Lincoln’s defense has seen a similar first half of the season.

The Bears have allowed just 15.8 points per game in their wins this season but gave up 41 in a loss to Walter Wellborn. In that game, Wellborn rushed for 410 yards and six touchdowns.

Holtville will continue to push its passing attack but Franklin knows the offense may have to start on the ground.

“It’ll be about us sustaining the run game to keep the chains moving and take the big plays when they come,” Franklin said.

Golf

continued from page B1

Chambliss sponsored a couple of the high school teams. They’re having their own tournament within our tournament,” Johnson said. “It gives these opportunities for the kids in high school to see who the businessmen and businesswomen are and to network with them.”

Johnson said they had hosted golf tournament fundraisers in the past but switched to hosting clay shoots in more recent years. She said the chamber returned to hosting a golf tournament in an effort to keep its events more local.

“We wanted to bring something back to the Millbrook area. This golf course is owned by the city of Millbrook, so we’re showcasing the Pines,” Johnson said.

“This year, we’re doing something closer to home instead of going to Montgomery.”

Despite the heavy rainfall during parts of the event, Johnson said she believes everybody enjoyed themselves.

Volunteer Janet Brown said she believes the golf tournament will be a yearly occurrence.

While it does not have a firm fundraising goal, Johnson said the proceeds from the event will benefit other events hosted by the chamber of commerce or a scholarship fund for local students.

The team from Edgewood Academy was the winner of the student tournament, and teams from AirNow Cooling and Heating and Alabama Power tied for first place during the overall tournament.

Johnson thanked the chamber’s sponsors for their contributions to the event, especially its premier sponsor, Central Alabama Electric Cooperative.

But will West Virginia finally fall when it visits Ames next week? Maybe the Boilermakers can pull off something shocking against Ohio State.

October is the month to see it happen.

So grab a snack and a drink, get comfortable in front of your television with your tablet and laptop to the side. Enjoy the sports because it does not get much better than this.

Reaching more than 22,000 households in Tallapoosa and Elmore counties The Dadeville Record

PUZZLES & HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19) You might have diɉculty dislodging yourself from some personal thoughts.

If you can, revise your plans accordingly to suit your mindset. Otherwise, call in your self-discipline. No matter what is driving you, what you say has an impact. Tonight: Loosen up and have fun.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) When a partner or close friend expresses his or her thoughts, you are likely to clear your mind about a concern. You feel better when the two of you are on the same page. However, you could inadvertently jolt a family member.

Go with the moment. Tonight: Take a midweek break.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Even if they don’t seem to aɈect you, remain tuned in to Ă„nancial swings. Be aware of money trends. Later in the day, a discussion could surprise you, forcing you to eye a possibility that you normally wouldn’t consider. Tonight: Field your calls, then decide who and what.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You might be concerned about a meeting that you can’t avoid. You could be surprised by what is shared. You could feel as though a lack of understanding exists between you and a friend. That feeling might be true; however, the situation can be resolved. Tonight: Lighten up.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Most of the day, you might want to lie low and gain through listening. You might be delighted by what you hear. A family member’s personal news makes you grin. When dealing with a partner, the unexpected becomes a theme. Tonight: Whatever knocks your socks oɈ.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) A meeting provides much to evaluate and consider. You feel that in the long run, everything will work in your favor.

An element of discomfort surrounds you and new information. Detach; carefully take an overview of the situation. Tonight: Get some good sleep.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Although you might not want to take ownership of a problem, you should anyway. For now, be careful about committing funds to any project or endeavor. You need more information.

Assume a greater role in what is occurring. Tonight: Go where your friends can be found.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) No one can miss your upbeat mood.

Because you’re able to detach, you see a perplexing situation in a new light.

Walk in others’ shoes. Get past a problem. Know that there is an alternative.

You need to Ă„nd it, and you will, with the help of a higher-up. Tonight: Out late.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) One-on-one relating marks the day. If you don’t take time with a child or loved one, you could witness a misunderstanding develop. Remember that not everyone is as secure or conĂ„dent as you are. Listen to what a close associate shares. Tonight: Say “yesâ€? to a new experience.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You might not be up for the changes coming toward you. Like many people, you prefer to stick to the status quo.

Good news encourages you to take a risk. A meeting could feed your mind with unusual yet positive feedback.

Try out an idea on someone you trust.

Tonight: Make it cozy.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You could be concerned about what is happening around you. Friends seem dedicated to getting past an obstacle.

At work, you hop through what normally might be a problem. Your experience and dexterity come through. Save socializing for later on. Tonight: The party goes on.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You are likely to Ă„nally grasp and feel comfortable with a new idea. You help explain this concept to those who need to understand it. However, you might not be as sure as others are about how to use this information. Ask questions, if need be. Tonight: Make it an early night.

Bulldogs sweep Rebels in two sets

By GRIFFIN PRITCHARD For The Herald

Two area volleyball teams on the rise tangled Monday afternoon with the Class 4A Holtville Bulldogs knocking off the home-standing Class 2A Reeltown Rebels 2-0 (25-17 and 25-10). â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was excited about how they performed,â&#x20AC;? Bulldogs coach Allison Franklin said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d put together a new rotation. Today was a lot of working out the kinks, getting out libero changes down; just getting ready for the second half of the season.â&#x20AC;?

With October starting, the number of matches leading up to

the area tournament is dwindling for both squads.

Reeltown, a program in its second year, showed bits and pieces of promise during Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loss. Despite the flashes, the inconsistency was too much and coach Kelli Hilyer started a brief practice session shortly after the match ended. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We volleyed the ball well and we were moving back and forth pretty well,â&#x20AC;? Hilyer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We got some good serves in, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to get more consistent when we are serving.â&#x20AC;?

Kaylyn Dismukes led the Bulldogs with nine kills. Karsyn Findley and Alexus Hindman were also factors in the firstgame victory.

Reeltown was led by Tania Haynes and Eryn Wells, who combined for a mixture of blocks at the nets and bumps to keep volleys alive. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I tell them that I want us to get better each set,â&#x20AC;? Hilyer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t win the set, you learn from it. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s our goal. So when we get to the area tournament we are ready.â&#x20AC;?

In the first game of the bestof-three series, Holtville pushed ahead 8-3 then after a series of quick points 11-3.

Reeltown, though, began to string a series of points together and closed the gap to six at 22-16. But, a kill and back-toback aces ended the first game.

Nyla Hayden scored seven

straight points on seven serves in the Set 1 loss. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve talked about finishing. We had a big lead in game one and gave up the lead.

But we figured out how to get the serve back,â&#x20AC;? Franklin said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tell this is a secondyear program. Kelli has done a great job.â&#x20AC;?

Set 2 was nip and tuck early with the Rebels taking the lead early. Holtville, which had a focus of finishing the game, put the words to work and pushed ahead 21-10 en route to the 25-10 victory.

For Reeltown, playing a schedule that features larger teams will help prepare them for tournaments down the road.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;They know that the plan is to play teams like this so that when you get to those tournaments, you are used to playing those larger schools,â&#x20AC;? Hilyer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They understand that.â&#x20AC;?

Pike Road, Tallassee, Handley, Dadeville and Marbury remain on the schedule for the Bulldogs.

Reeltownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s road to the regular season end has it hosting rival Dadeville, hosting Fayetteville in the final area match of the season then traveling to Beulah.

Both the Rebels and the Bulldogs will converge on Eclectic in the coming days to take part in the Elmore County High Block Party (tournament).

in their possession.

rigged with cut bait hooked below the weight (Carolina rig) to try to catch a redfish or bluefish. He uses 1/0 to 2/0 circle hooks most of the time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to use 10-foot rods, but you can still fish on rough days,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can keep a 3- or 4-ounce lead out. I make my own pompano rigs.

You can buy them with two or three drops. I prefer one-drop rigs. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more discreet and easier to manage.â&#x20AC;?

Isbell said probably his hardest job is teaching clients what to look for to indicate a bite. A rhythmic motion of the rod tip indicates wave action. A steady pull or erratic action means some species of fish is taking the bait.

Although our party, which included Jay Hirschberg and Wayne Carman, was fishing on a neap tide, we managed to reel in bluefish, whiting (sometimes

called southern or Gulf kingfish), a rodeoworthy ladyfish and the ubiquitous hardhead catfish to the beach.

Isbell said the heat has caused the pompano to vacate the surf until the weather and water cools.

Cooler weather will also bring another desirable species close to the beach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We get a good run of bull redfish in the fall,â&#x20AC;? Isbell said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will use a lot of cut bait. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m transitioning now to using cut bait on Carolina rigs. If Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m fishing for bull reds, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll move up to a 4/0 hook. They will hit pompano rigs, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s definitely worth doing because the pompano fishing is only going to improve as the weather cools. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can catch whiting all year, but it does get better in the winter. That is the main species we target when it gets cold. Whiting get bigger (pushing

2 pounds) and more plentiful in the winter months. Sometimes in the winter, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get a run of what we call â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;big uglies,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; the big black drum. Those are a lot of fun to catch, too.â&#x20AC;?

For those who specifically target pompano in the surf, Isbell said the best fishing occurs in the spring. â&#x20AC;&#x153;March, April and May â&#x20AC;&#x201D; those are the three months to catch pompano,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s go time for pompano. You can still catch them in June and July, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s definitely better in the spring.â&#x20AC;?

Isbell said certain conditions provide an opportunity to catch speckled trout in the surf as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We catch trout mainly in the summer months,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s usually after a big rain and fresh water moves the fish out to the beaches, looking for that higher salinity.â&#x20AC;?
