Transitioning students who are beginning state standards curriculum and an improved evaluation of teachers are among the top priorities parents, students, educators and other citizens cited during a Tuesday, Oct. 15, Insight session at Farragut High School.

The session’s purpose was to garner citizens’ perspectives on the direction Knox County Schools should take in designing its upcoming five-year strategic plan,, which will take the school system into 2020. It is one six forums scheduled in Knox

County locations throughout October. The final plan must be approved by Knox County Board of Education.

“What we are doing here today is we really want to hear your voice, your perspective on what the future direction of the Knox County Schools should be,” said Dr. James McIntyre Jr., superintendent of Knox County Schools.

Knox County Schools developed its current five-year strategic plan in 2009 to provide “Excellence for All Children,” McIntyre said.

“The conversation tonight is what does the next strategic plan look like? What is the direction for the next five years? So,

Not too hot, not too cold, that’s the key for 19th Annual Farragut Fall 5k Run, Fun Walk & Pet Parade to stay in early November.

Moving the 5k up roughly six weeks last year into cooler weather versus previous FWKCC runs before 2012, “I thought it went great last year,” said Bettye Sisco, president/CEO of event sponsor Farragut West Knox Chamber of Commerce. “I felt that we had better response; I think the weather was absolutely perfect, a little cooler, so it made a nice day for the runners. It had a good atmosphere. Crisp air.

asloan@farragutpress.com

… [Runners and walkers] seemed to love the cooler weather because it’s the perfect time to run. It’s not too hot, it’s not too cold. … The cool weather helps get them rejuvenated and get them going.”

With Sisco anticipating “225 to 250” participants representing a handful of states, race day registration begins at 7 a.m., Saturday morning, Nov. 2, in Mayor Bob Leonard Park.

In addition to runners from the Knoxmetro and East Tennessee areas, Sisco said participants represented six other states last year.

“They do come from all over because

With First Commercial Real Estate’s Midas touch in Turkey Creek’s development well established locally, its interest along Kingston Pike with one of the “big boxes” is bearing fruit.

First Commercial’s brokerage involvement, along with ties to local ownership, in renovating and leasing out the old Food City building and its adjacent spaces near the Kingston Pike-Concord Road intersection — vacant for several years — has lured two medical groups since FCRE took over in 2012.

“To the right of the big box we’ve got 8,000 [square] feet there … we combined [three shop spaces] and Summit Medical Group is taking the 8,000 square feet,” said Keith Widmer, First Commercial president. “Around front there we combined three spaces, and that’s almost 4,800 square feet. And that is called Results Physiotherapy.”

Summit Medical is moving from its Farragut location, Farragut Family Practice at 11201 West Point Drive. That move is scheduled for Monday, Oct. 28, according to Jennifer Burke, SMG corporate communications manager.

“We don’t have any shop space left. We have the big box, which is 57,000 [square] feet. We’re working with a couple of groups that have some real interest in it,” Widmer said. “At this point we’re not at liberty to say who that is.”

“We think we’ve taken an asset that was pretty dormant out there, and we’re just excited to see where we take the balance of it,” he added.

“We’re real optimistic about the peo-

A signal enhancement project is being completed in the town of Farragut.

“The intent is to update all of our pedestrian signals throughout the Town and to add pedestrian signals and crosswalks in some locations,” Town Engineer Darryl Smith said.

The project includes an upgrade to countdown pedestrian signals throughout the Town, Smith said.

“It’s less confusing for pedestrians when they can see that they have, say, 12 seconds to move along and get across before the signal changes, as opposed to a flashing sign,” Smith said. “They know exactly how much time they have to get across the intersection.”

The crosswalk timing is slightly longer with the changes.

“The MUTCD [Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices], they’ve suggested that all of those times be extended a little further to allow for slower pedestrians,” he said. “... We follow the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, and it is updated on a fairly regular basis.

And when improvements are made, we try to keep up with the standards.”

Pre-emption equipment also is going into four intersections, he said.

“Pre-emption equipment is when an emergency vehicle is approaching ... they’ll run through all of the sounds their sirens can make,” he said. “... That’s to get the pre-emption device on the signal. It will recognize the fact that an emergency

it’s vital that we hear your voice, your conversation because we will follow that plan for the next five years,” he said.

Melinda Webster, Farragut Primary School second-grade teacher and parent of two children in Farragut schools, asked how KCS would address how the state assessments changing next year from the TCAP to the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers will affect the schools.

“There will be changes as of 2014 and 2015,” McIntyre said.

Progression Electric workers install a new electronic countdown pedestrian signal at the intersection of Kingston Pike and Watt Road. Town of Farragut is installing several enhanced pedestrian signals throughout Town.

• Oct. 16: Knox County Sheriff’s Office was advised by a representative of Concord Watch, Clock and Jewelry the sign for the business was taken. Complainant advised the poles holding the sign up also were taken from the front of the store. Loss is estimated to be about $750.

• Oct. 15: Police were dispatched to a Raceland Drive residence where the complainant told investigators when he returned to the residence the back door of the residence had been forced open. Missing was an Apple computer valued at about $2,500.

• Oct. 15: A representative of S&W Flooring reported to police the theft of some tools from a home construction site off South Fox Den Drive. The house was locked and whoever entered it had a key. There are several different contracted crews that are working on the house and have access to a key. Loss is about $500.

• Oct. 14: A North Pickens Bridge Road woman reported to police her iPad was stolen while she was eating at Wild Wing Café off Campbell Lakes Drive in Farragut. Complainant state she contacted Apple in hopes of trying to trace it but could not at time of report. Complainant was advised to call back with serial number for NCIC entry as soon as she acquired the number. Estimated loss is about $500.

• Oct. 14: KCSO patrol officers responded to a report of a strong-arm robbery to an individual at the Petro Travel Center off Watt Road. The vic-

tim stated he had parked his 18wheeler in the designated parking area behind the Petro Travel Center.

He stated that at about 5:30 p.m., he got out of his truck to take a walk. As he walked around the passenger side of his truck, the victim was attacked by three unknown males and one unknown female. The victim was knocked to the ground, held down by at least two suspects and his wallet was removed from the left rear pocket of his pants. One of the suspects removed the cash from the wallet as all four suspects fled on foot. When the suspect saw the victim chasing after them, the wallet was dropped.

The suspects may have gotten into a light blue Ford Crown Victoria. Loss was about $100.

• Oct. 14: Police were advised by a Dundee Road resident an unknown suspect entered and ransacked both of his vehicles. Complainant stated the suspect(s) stole his wallet and its contents out of his Chrysler Pacifica while nothing was taken from the Subaru Outback.

Complainant advised the Pacifica was locked but could see no signs of forced entry.

Loss is about $200.

• Oct. 13: Police arrested a 27-yearold man for burglary after officers were dispatched to a Sonja Drive residence following a residential alarm from Sonitrol Alarm Company. The alarm company called in an alarm with video of someone with a flashlight inside the residence. Upon officers arrival, officers reported seeing

the suspect’s vehicle parked across the street at another residence under construction. Officers observed the suspect coming from the residence and confronted him. Suspect stated that he entered the residence through an open door and was just inside looking around. The victim was contracted and told police the suspect does not have any purpose for being on the property.

• Oct. 13: Police were advised by a Cross Creek Road man that his residence had been burglarized.

Complainant stated he left the residence at about 3 p.m. and returned 20 minutes later to find the door of the residence was forced open and property was missing. Total estimated loss of the break-in was about $200.

• Oct. 13: A Halls Ferry Road woman reported to police an unknown suspect broke into her vehicle and took her purse and its contents.

Complainant stated she and her boyfriend arrived at a North Watt Road address for a tournament they are in at about noon at Mayor Bob Leonard Park. Upon returning to the vehicle about two hours later the couple discovered her driver-side window broken out and her purse gone.

Loss is estimated to be about $850.

• Oct. 12: An Ashton Court woman reported to police an unknown suspect broke out the rear windshield of her vehicle. Estimated loss is about $2,000.

Beginning Saturday, Oct. 26, through race day, registration is $25.

For every team of four signing up together, one of those signees is free of charge.

Twenty percent of proceeds will go to Smoky Mountain Service Dogs.

“We’ll have lots of great food for them to munch on when they get through to build their energy back up,” Sisco added about the refreshments tent located just beyond the finish line. “The food is part of the service. … We have a great response from our food people.”

vehicle is approaching.”

This equipment recognizes when an emergency vehicle is approaching and causes red lights to appear for the other sides of an intersection besides the one in which the emergency vehicle is traveling.

“It aids emergency vehicles to get through the intersection more efficiently and safer,” he said. “If the other approaches have to stop, then there’s less conflict in the intersection if say, a fire truck has got to get through.”

All other intersections in Town already have the pre-emption equipment, he said.

The project has an $160,000 budget, Smith said.

“We’re using some of that funding for other things related to this, like the crosswalk striping, re-striping crosswalks, adjusting sidewalks to create better handicap ramps, more or less bring everything up to standards,” he said.

The anticipated time that the project will be completed is about the end of October, he said.

“Progression Electric is the name of the company that we’re contracted with that is doing all of the signal work,” he said.

“They just happen to be our signal maintenance contractor as well, so they’re very familiar with all of our signals.”

they do hear about it. We advertise it very thoroughly,” Sisco said.

The course starts on Watt Road near the intersection with Kingston Pike, with Farragut Mayor Ralph McGill firing the start gun around 8 a.m., then runs adjacent to Mayor Bob Leonard Park before ending in the park’s Watt Road parking lot.

“It’s not a difficult course, but it’s not an easy course, either,” Sisco said. “… Runners said it’s a course that has difficult areas but areas that aren’t as difficult.

They said it’s well marked, it’s well carried out.”

three through eight, and, of course, at the high school level the state exams, will be replaced

by PARCC.” McIntyre said the PARCC assessment is more aligned to the Common Core state standards implemented this year.

“We were in a similar situation five years ago,” he said. “We had to make some assumptions of what our data will look like, as well as the state standards. We might have to do something similar.”

When the crowd dispersed into smaller groups, people discussed what they thought was working in the schools, what was not and what needed to be done next.

During one of those small group discussions, a local parent, Stella Jasmin Margaret, voiced her concerns about how the students are transitioning with the Common Core state standards and the PARCC assessments. She wanted to see a better transition.

Additionally, parent LeighAnn Dyer said her group wanted help for students struggling to meet the standards and a plan for students in the upper grades who have not had the curriculum to

take the PARCC assessment.

On another note, Evan Young, a Farragut High School student who spoke on behalf of one of the groups, said his group thinks a data-based focus is ruining the education system.

“The emphasis placed on numbers and tests in this county and the entire country is ridiculous,” Young said. “As a student, I can say I’m over it.

“We have to realize in an education system that we cannot quantify a student.”

Other priorities from the groups included modifying the system for evaluating teachers, lowering teacher-student ratio, a long-range capital improvement plan for schools in areas of growing development, more equity in the distribution of funds and resources in the schools and a new Gibbs Middle School.

McIntyre said KCS also is soliciting feedback in other ways: Through its website at w w w. k n o x s c h o o l s 2020.org, through a twitter account, knoxschools@2020; and on an e-mail account, knoxschools2020@knox schools.org.

presstalk@farragutpress.com • I had a situation happen to [me] last evening that I would like to have you warn your readers about, you may have already and I missed it. It’s time for my car registration renewal. TN Tags anytime is the website. I went through the process noting the website looked different, but of course its been a year since the last time I did my renewal online. I provided all of my personal information, gave credit card number and billing address pressed accept and expected to be provided with more information or least something showing I had performed the renewal, but I discover I was making a purchase for a booklet of directions on how to register a vehicle, make an address change, etc. Some 3rd party is making money by using a website address that is almost identical to the address used for Tennessee registration renewal.

Yes, I now feel very foolish. I did call the credit card company to close the account. You can bet that website is set up solely for the purpose of making money off the unsuspecting citizens attempting to renew their registration. I know now and I should have known then to look for the Tennessee State emblem and the circle with the three stars, together with the words “County Clerk.” I am curious as to whether others have had a similar situation. I am hoping I was the only ninnie. Lesson learned.

• To the Farragut administration, do not lift the gun ban in our parks, do not lift the gun ban in our parks. I don’t think you

are hearing from the majority of us because we’re complacent because it is already the way it should be and you don’t call in to maintain a status quo — you don’t e-mail in, you don’t call in.

So you think you’re hearing from more people who want to lift the gun ban but you haven’t put it to a vote. If you are really interested in representing your constituents, then you need to find out what everybody’s feelings are and not just the squeaky wheels that are calling in and e-mailing in to lift the gun ban and only listening to that one side. That is not accurate data.

• Yes, I guess the laws that are in the state of Tennessee apply to everybody but the press, the farragutpress. It seems I was driving around Farragut today and just about every driveway was a farragutpress paper in a plastic bag. Anywhere else that’s called littering. But I guess farragutpress doesn’t have to do that. It would be nice if you would tell your people to put it in the mailbox. That’s where it belongs not out in people’s driveways where it gets blown around and makes this Town look terrible.

• I guess your source was wrong about Weigel’s and Goodwill. I was informed that the papers had been signed and that the store will be a drop off for Goodwill. This individual saw the papers at the courthouse.

Editor’s Note: Goodwill representatives say they have no knowledge of this drop off site.

• Hello farragutpress. Where are my manners? Congratula-

tions on celebrating your 25th anniversary. I have lived here for eight years and always look forward to getting your well-prepared and informative newspaper. Keep up the great work.

Congratulations.

wasn’t local, and now you do,” Smoak said of First Commercial.

“David Pfizer and John Turley, I think, went in together and bought that property. … Turley and Fizer bought that over a year ago. Keith Widmer of First Commercial, is trying to lease out that space. They’re trying to renovate that now. I think anytime you have someone who lives in the community, works in the community, it’s helpful because they’re trying to better the area.”

Moreover, “They’re definitely beautifying the outside of the

building,” Smoak said. “I think they’re working on some different awnings and colors and stuff like that.”

As for fixing up the big box, Widmer said, “It needed a facelift and a little attention to the outside.”

With First Commercial, “You’ve got a group that’s obviously done a lot of work in Turkey Creek. … I’m sure, given their success on Turkey Creek, they’re going to find something successful to do out there at the old Food City property,” Smoak

said.

“Turkey Creek adds a lot of credibility to what we do,” Widmer said.

Looking at the overall Farragut area commercial real estate situation, “I think Turkey Creek is where everybody wants to be,” Smoak said. “Every retailer we talk to, the first thing they say is they want to go to Turkey Creek.”

However, “The big challenge with that going forward is Turkey Creek is built out,” Smoak said.

“There’s really hardly any other

lots left. And there’s really not a lot of empty retail space left. I’m talking about both sides [Town’s and City of Knoxville’s]. Those retailers are going to want to go somewhere. They still want to be in the area.”

As a result, “Something’s going to have to wind up getting built” in Farragut, Smoak added.

“You’re not going to see another Turkey Creek, but I think you’ll see some smaller stuff.”

That’s in addition to “a doctor’s office that is building a brand new building,” said David Smoak, Farragut Town administrator, about the new structure a few hundred feet down from the old Food City complex. “…

You’re going to have kind of a medical campus up there.”

Fulmer rewards ‘Great Volunteer’ Tisdale, 94 ■

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

For 54 years, from 1947 through 2000, Morris E. Tisdale was a loyal Tennessee Volunteers Football season-ticket holder as a transplanted Indiana native.

Such loyalty on Rocky Top drew

the attention of Phillip Fulmer, former Vols Football head coach and College Football Hall of Fame member, who helped Morris, 94, celebrate the start of National Assisted Living Week at Morning Pointe Assisted Living in Lenoir City Monday, Sept. 9 Fulmer’s gifts included a

signed football: “To Morris, a Great Volunteer” with Fulmer’s signature and coaching accomplishments enscribed.

“I met him at the door, that was a big treat,” Morris said. “I said, ‘coach, you being let go was a sin,’ adding that Fulmer being fired after the 2008 season “really

made me mad because he was a responsible man, worked hard and was always good to us.”

As for his favorite team to beat, “In the long run it’s always been Alabama,” Morris said, adding about successful Crimson Tide head coach Nick Saban, “You hate him but he’s a heck of a coach.”

Martial arts champ headed to world games

ALAN SLOAN

Starting this year, Christ Covenant Presbyterian Church has spread its charitable muscle, featuring about 125 of its members, over a broad swath of Knox and Loudon counties for one day in the spring and fall.

Begun in Knoxville a few years ago, Operation In As Much features churches that combine forces to serve alongside nonprofits that aid the less fortunate.

During Christ Covenant’s fall day of volunteering for In As Much Saturday, Sept. 14, “We partnered with nine organizations for the entire day,” said Seth Hammond, CCPC member and volunteer who oversees the church’s Mercy Ministry.

“I helped out with Habitat For Humanity of Loudon County,” Hammond said. “They had a big annual garage sale. … I went and helped organize that. I also went over and helped out with [Knox Area Rescue Ministries] Thrift Store of Lenoir City as well.”

Looking back, “I can remember before television [games] were common, we’d all sit around the radio and listen to out-of-town football games,” said Dick Tisdale, Morris’s oldest son who’s in his 44th year as a UT season-

Mary Ann Aken was picked as the September-October featured artist by the Farragut Arts Council.

Some of her work is displayed on the Town Hall rotunda’s second floor through Oct. 31, according to a Town press release.

Aken said she has previously done a show at Town Hall, which was in pottery.

“They asked me to do another show, and I said, ‘Well I would like to exhibit my weavings and textiles,’ because I work in a lot of different media, and I haven’t done a weaving and textile exhibition for many, many

Always looking to gain a psychological edge on her opponents out of sheer professional habit, Christine Barckhoff’s hugely successful yet relatively short martial arts career started when she made a deal.

A deal with her 4-year-old daughter, Mary, when Barckhoff was age 41.

“At the time my son [John] was doing martial arts at Arts of the Samurai. And my daughter and I would just go and sit and watch.

And when she got to be about 4, she said she would do it if I did it, so I started taking karate with my 4 year old,” said Barckhoff, who will compete internationally as a member of the United States National Martial Arts team during Freedom III World Game Championships Nov. 14-17 in Cancun, Mexico.

Starting only seven years ago, this second-degree black belt — who is a psychotherapist and licensed clinical social worker with a private practice near Farragut — “was inducted into the National Martial Arts Hall of Fame” last spring, she said.

Bolinger outlines FHS success to Farragut Rotarians ■ ALAN SLOAN

asloan@farragutpress.com

Once again leading Knox County public high schools with the highest ACT scores among its Class of 2014 (23.6), Farragut High School’s recent list of scholastic accomplishments was

promoted by its Guidance Department chair and college counselor.

Susan Bolinger was guest speaker at The Rotary Club of Farragut during its regular Wednesday noon meeting, Sept.

26, in Fox Den Country Club.

Bolinger pointed out that FHS

earned recognition as a “Tennessee Rewards Schools” for ranking “in the top five percent of all schools in the state in terms of performance and progress. I think only 16 schools in the whole state received that honor.”

Bolinger said FHS Class of

2013 “made records in many, many ways,” pointing to $30.1 million in scholarships earned. “… Ninety percent of our students earned some kind of money for school.”

However, “Our goal for the Class of 2014, and I’ve told them, is 100 percent,” she added. “…

Our students went to 98 different colleges and universities. Many of them went to UT. About a quarter of our students. We have actually been one of the leading feeders to UT.” Bolinger said she believed See BOLINGER on Page 8A

FHS had the most dual enrollment students of any high school in the county. “That’s where the student can actually take [college] courses on Farragut’s campus and get credit for it while they’re a highs school student,” she said. “We have English 1010 and 1020 and we have a photography course. … The state will actually pay now for a student to take two classes, $1,200 for the student to take the dual enrollment courses. … Parents, they

love that.”

“We do have this year, this just got released, we’ve got eight National Merit semifinalists,” Bolinger added.

“Typically, about 72, 73 percent go to four-year-[colleges]. … We had students go to Harvard, Penn, Chapel Hill [University of North Carolina], Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech, Cornell, Purdue, UC Berkeley, Texas A&M and all of the [other] big SEC schools as well.”

As for college preparation, “We now have 26 [advanced placement] courses at Farragut High

School,” Bolinger said. “There’s only 32 available.”

“We also had a record in terms of number of AP exams we gave this year,” Bolinger added. “We gave 945.”

Farragut is among “only one percent of the high schools in Tennessee [that] offer AP physics or AP computer science,” Bolinger said.

“We just got about a $2 million renovation to the high school. It was definitely needed. … We have new paint, we have new carpet, new walls … new lockers,” Bolinger said.

We’re out of toilet paper! Must be time to go to Cramco!

Yesterday, I went to Cramco (Costco). We call it Cramco because we usually cram our trunk full, put stuff in the back seats, in the passenger’s foot space and on the passenger’s lap.

After more than seven years of stopping Nelly (my indulgent inner child) from having Pam the big, 12” Young all beef polMake it ish sausage on a bun Fun! they sell for $1.50 with a 20 ounce soft drink, I caved. For seven years I’d drooled looking at the poster of that meal, with mustard, catsup, onions and relish running the length of the dog and I always managed to distract Nelly.

I don’t know what came over me; I wasn’t even hungry yet. I know Nelly was especially attentive the night before when our neighbor told about the wondrous time they had in Leavenworth, Washington this last weekend. Leavenworth is one of the top 10 Oktoberfests in the US. I can’t think the word “Oktoberfest” and not think

about sausage! It just doesn’t happen. So perhaps sausage was still on my mind when the poster caught my attention and reeled me in for the buy.

The food concession at our Cramco in Vancouver, Washington is located on the way out of the store, so I’ve noticed shoppers park their over-loaded, over-sized carts while they order and eat their food. Before I knew it I’d parked and was standing in line. My heart was racing as I looked at the other choices. A chocolate frozen yogurt for $1.35 (another poster I’d drooled over many times).

“May I help you?”

“Yes, I’ll have the polish sausage please.”

“Anything else?”

“Uh, ---“I looked up at the poster of the frozen yogurt, “Yes, I’ll have a . . .oops, just a minute please,” I grabbed my phone out of my purse and said, “Hello?”

After a pause I said into the phone, “No, Nelly you can’t have both. We’ll talk later.” I pretended to hang up, smiled and apologized to the man for the interruption and handed him two dollars and said, “No just the sausage please.”

I sat next to a woman who had one too. She was almost through with hers. We smiled at each other as I opened the foil at one

end of my 12 inches. I was so excited to sink my teeth into it, but before I took a bite I said, “This is the first time I’ve had one of these here.”

She smiled and said, “They are delicious! I saw my neighbor here and he told me he comes here just to have lunch. It’s so cheap and tasty.”

“Have you ever had the frozen yogurt?” I asked with my mouth full.

“Oh, yeah, it’s yummy! But if you really want a treat try the double dipped ice cream bar! My hus-

band loves those. It really takes two to eat one.”

Damn, Nelly did NOT need to hear that! Now she’ll be looking for that poster and bugging me to try one.

I love Costco! I’m always excited when we run out of toilet paper because it’s the signal it’s time to go there. I just have to have a parking lot talk with Nelly before we go in each time so we don’t get carried away buying stuff that will last longer than we will (a thought senior citizens have to consider). Now the parking lot

talk is going to be longer the next time we go. I’ll have to have a check list: no polish hot dog, no frozen yogurt and no double dipped ice cream bar for two!

The youngest children helped with landscaping and sorted clothing.

“A group of teens helped out with the Department of Human Services,” Hammond said. “They put together some furniture that we donated. And they helped paint murals … in [DHS] Counseling and Assessment Center.”

With two foster children, church member Becky Smits, Knoxville advocate for The Forgotten Initiative, joined her husband, Jeff, to assist Department of Children’s Services off Western Avenue.

Becky started embroidering gifts bags “for children coming into custody.”

“We got in touch with DCS and it just kind of snowballed, and then I had friends who wanted to help and put things in bags,” Smits added. “And we were connected with The Forgotten Initiative. I applied to become an

years, for I guess about 20 or 25 years,” she said. “And the reason being, I decided to become a watercolorist, and I went back to graduate school to study two more years of independent study. And I became a painter, and I concentrated in the last 25 years in exhibiting my painting.”

Aken, who has been a professional artist for about 50 years, said she still does some weaving and pottery.

“I started out as a pottery major,” Aken said. “I got my degrees in pottery and textile design and weaving, and then later I became a painter. So in the beginning, I produced pottery and weaving and design textile in the form of fabric for commercial design to be sold in industry, and I wove upholstery sample pieces. ... And then I also wove one-of-a-kind tapestry pieces.”

An art show influenced her decision to become a watercolorist.

“When I moved to Tennessee in 1971, I was at an art exhibition here, and I saw some pieces that were done that I thought were extraordinary,” she said. “They were just splendid, and I found the artist that did one of the pieces and discovered he was on the faculty of The University of Tennessee.

And I thought his work was so incredible that I went to see him and started studying with him for two years of independent graduate study because I already had my master’s degree.”

That faculty member’s name was Carl Sublett, she said.

“I have a BFA, a bachelor of fine arts degree, from the Cleveland Institute of Art in Cleveland, Ohio, and I have a MFA, master of fine arts degree, from Wayne State University in Detroit, Mich.,” she said. “And I have two years of post-graduate study at The University of Tennessee in painting.”

Now her main areas are watercolor, drawing, tapestry weaving and painting sacred Byzantine icons, she said.

Among their Sept. 14 projects in a group of 25, “One of them was organize the donation closets that’s at the Department of Children’s Services,” Smits said.

Also, “We created a relaxation space for staff,” Smits added.

“Social workers endure an incredible amount of stress with the horrific situations they deal with. …

We had been collecting donations over the last several months of furniture … to create a nice living room kind of space. … A little bit of exercise equipment.”

Beginning in April, Hammond said Christ Covenant “partnered with over 35 churches in Knox County. … Cornerstone Church of God was one, right next to us.

We worked well with them.”

“It’s very rewarding because as we get out in the community we are aware of the needs around us,” Hammond added, where they minister to “a lot of the hurt and a lot of the broken hearted.”

Moving to Knox County in 1947 upon being transferred here by International Shoe Company, this World War II veteran of the Pacific theater (U.S. Navy) said becoming a Vols Football fan “was not hard to do. I did have a good seat” in the East stands around the 40-yard line of what was then exclusively known as Shields-Watkins Field.

During home games, “We’d all tailgate together around Circle Park,” Dick added about a ritual started by Morris in the 1960s.

On the road, “He’d take a bus trip to out-of-town ballgames, even with a group, probably for 20 years traveling to one game a year,” Dick said. “He went to Memphis, Lexington, anywhere.”

Dick’s wife, Ellen Tisdale, said they joined Morris and his now deceased wife, Jean, among “roughly 20 couples” for those road games.

“It was a neighborhood group, really,” Ellen added. “The women made food to take on the bus. …

Stay in a hotel, make a big weekend out of it.”

“I’m the oldest of six children and we’re all Orange-blooded,” Dick said.

However, one of Morris’s grandchildren, Dick and Ellen’s only child, Lisa, “graduated from the University of Alabama,” Dick said.

“We let her go where she wanted to go, and a lot of people from around Farragut at the time were going to the University of Alabama,” Ellen said.

Horne speaks at Farragut Rotary ■ ALAN SLOAN

asloan@farragutpress.com

With real estate development in half of the nation’s 50 states, Doug Horne has learned many a business lesson since graduating from Farragut High School in 1963.

Most notably a three-letter word: act.

While hitting it off with famed Walmart founder Sam Walton among other national icons, Horne’s first shopping center venture in Madisonville in the early 1980s — which included a Walmart — has led to “over 140 shopping and retail centers in 25 states.”

That was a fact shared by former Farragut Mayor Eddy Ford, who introduced Horne as featured speaker during The Rotary Club of Farragut’s regular meeting Wednesday, Oct. 2, in Fox Den Country Club.

“All in all I would suggest that 10 percent of the people that live in the town of Farragut live in a residence that came from Horne Properties’ efforts,” Ford said.

Serving as assist to the general manager at Tennessee Valley Authority — among other roles during 14 years including engineering and management while on its board of directors — Horne said Dave Lilienthal, first chairman of TVA and chairman of Atomic Energy Commission, gave him some valuable advice. “’I’m going to tell you some-

“I was selected to the [U.S.] team by the Southeast coach, a woman named Toni McSorely. …

There are just five of us from the southeast,” Barckhoff, 48, added about the women’s and men’s teams.

thing; one word that will help you throughout your life. … It’s three letters: act,’” Horne added. ‘“…

Go up to bat, swing the bat, see what happens.”’

Horne founded Horne Properties, Inc. in 1981. “I drove my car out to Bentonville, Ark., we heard that Walmart was coming this way,” said Horne, who in 1988 founded Republic Newspapers, Inc., parent company of farragutpress. In 1997, Horne founded Horne Radio, LLC. On a Tuesday morning around 6:30 a.m., Walton welcomed Horne into his office. “I stood up, I did not sit down, and I said, ‘Mr.

Walton, I would like the opportunity to build a Walmart store,’” Horne recalled. ‘I just want one time, just one shot at this.’ And he said, ‘What’s your background?’ and I told him I worked at TVA in engineering construction, and he said, ‘How’d you get out here?’ and I said I drove my car, and he said, ‘How many miles was it?’ And I said 961 miles. And he said, ‘OK, that sounds reasonable.’”

As Walton prepared to take Horne to meet Walmart vice president of real estate, Horne said Walton told him, “’I’m going to give you one shot at building a store and don’t screw it up.’”

imagined. If 10 years ago you’d told me I was doing this, I just never would have believed it.”

To compete among a field of roughly 2,000 in Cancun in five events, “I also earned the right by placing first in some tournaments that I participated in,” added Barckhoff, who practices agedo.

Competing in non-contact events, “I’ll be doing a musical form, a weapons form, an open-

hand form. … Forms are my specialty,” she said. “I’ll also be competing in breaking.”

As a competitor, “I would say my professional background helps me in terms of managing the stress that goes along with the training,” Barckhoff said. “And just a lot of positive self-talk, being able to increase my confidence, things like that.”

ESK holds annual Blessing of the Animals ■

TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com

Horses, rats, dogs and cats received a blessing Friday, Oct. 4, when the Episcopal School of Knoxville held its annual Blessing of the Animals.

“Saint Francis is the patron saint of pets, so every Oct. 4 we have a Blessing of the Animals,” said Melissa Callahan, director of communications with the school.

On that day, Callahan said, students and their families are able to bring their pets to the school, where chaplains and priests bless them.

“We have been studying Saint

Francis in religion class, and today was Saint Francis Day,” said Jay Secor, headmaster of Episcopal School of Knoxville.

“Saint Francis gave his life to the Lord and what a great role model he was.”

“It’s for the kids,” Callahan added about the blessing. “In conjunction with this, our kindergarten has been collecting pet food for the last four weeks for Lover of Animals Ministry and Bible Study through the Fish Hospitality Pantry downtown.”

Secor said the school has been holding the blessing since 1999, the founding year of the school.

“And, wasn’t this fun,” he

exclaimed. “When you think of a pet in the eyes of a child, what fun it is for them to bring their coveted best friend to school.”

A hedgehog, frogs, an albino corn snake, a guinea pig and even lizards also made themselves at home on the school grounds during the blessings.

“It feels good to know that the Lord is with him,” one student, McLean Tant, said about his pet rat, Queso.

“I love it,” said Josh Hill, the school’s chaplain. “It’s one of my favorite days on the calendar. Saint Francis is a figure that See ESK on Page 13A

resonates with people because he chose a life of simplicity.”

“I think it’s a very loving event,” said John Tirro, chaplain at Tyson House and Episcopal Lutheran Campus Ministry. “I think people’s animals is one of the surest ways of connecting with love and God’s love.

“So, when we are blessing their animals, we are blessing them,” added Tirro, who also is one of the pastors of Saint John Lutheran Church along Broadway. “I think it’s also a great way for people to get to know each other around this shared love they have for animals, and it’s fun,” he said.

La Cabaña brings Cuban fare Town’s newest restaurant to open Oct. 24

■

ROBBY O’DANIEL rodaniel@farragutpress.com

A new Cuban restaurant, La Cabaña, will open in Farragut today, Thursday, Oct. 24.

“We’re at 723 North Campbell Station Road, which is on Campbell Station Road near I40,” said Daren Martin, a coowner of the establishment.

“We’re right next to Dunkin’ Donuts on Campbell Station Road.”

The restaurant has five owners: Daren Martin and his wife, Nony Martin, Eva Brown, Jorge Bernal and Ariel Salvador, Daren Martin said.

“We hope to have quick, affordable flavorful lunches and a very comfortable atmosphere for dinner in our restaurant,” Daren Martin said.

Daren Martin estimated that four people would be on staff besides the partners. Those four, hired locally, will serve as service and kitchen staff.

“We have an emphasis on a casual environment and excellent flavorful food,” he said.

Daren Martin talked about how the restaurant came together.

“Just one of those magical things where you’ve got an interest in opening a restaurant and you have a talent for food service, and you have someone who can prepare excellent food and

you also find a good location,” he said. “So everything came together, and we decided to pursue the opportunity.”

Jorge Bernal, also La Cabaña general manager, said the restaurant will have authentic Cuban food.

“We’re going to have a lot of pork,” Bernal said. “We’re going to have steaks and some chicken too.”

Examples of entrees, he said, include pollo a la milanesa, which is breaded fried chicken,

and ropa vieja.

The restaurant also will have sandwiches such as the Cuban sandwich and the media luna sandwich, he said.

“We’re going to have about 10 sandwiches that we’re going to offer,” Bernal added.

Examples of side items the restaurant will offer include fried plantains, Yuca roots, white rice and black beans and congris, which is a combination where white rice and black beans are mixed together, he said.

Bernal described the staff as “really friendly and really driven to give the customer the best experience,” he said. “The food is going to be outstanding too.”

The restaurant, which will offer lunch and dinner, has a cozy atmosphere, he said.

“Everybody should take the chance and come and visit us,” Bernal added. “They won’t regret it. It’s like a dream come true for everyone of us [the owners]. We always wanted something like that, and it came together.”

Anytime Fitness marks one year in Town ■

ROBBY O’DANIEL rodaniel@farragutpress.com

Anytime Fitness, located at 12572 Kingston Pike in Farragut, celebrates its first anniversary in October.

Louise Povlin and her husband, Jay, own the location.

“It’s a 24-hour fitness facility,” Louise Povlin said. “Members have access to the facility for 24 hours, seven days a week, so whenever they want to get in a workout, they can.”

She said the philosophy of the business is that it targets busy people.

“It’s for the person who just needs to get in, can get a good workout in half an hour, get back to the car and get on with their life,” she said.

That philosophy also influenced the location of the Farragut business, she said.

“We put ourselves in the middle of basically neighborhoods, so that people could get here easily by either walking, riding their bike, driving a car,” she said. “They can get their workout in, and they can get home. And it’s not a long hassle.”

Louise Povlin talked about what she thinks makes Anytime Fitness special.

Robby O’Daniel/farragutpress

Louise Povlin uses a shoulder press at Anytime Fitness, located at 12572 Kingston Pike in Farragut. Louise Povlin and her husband, Jay, own the location.

“What I think is special about Anytime Fitness is when you join this facility, we are dedicated to helping people meet their fitness

goals,” she said. “... When you join this gym, I want you to work out at this gym. I want you using the gym. I want you in here, reaching

for your fitness goals. ... If we haven’t seen you in three or four weeks, we’re giving you a call.”

The business has a personal trainer, she said.

“When you join, you get a free fitness assessment, which is an opportunity to figure out how you want to best utilize the gym,” she said. “... We let everyone know that anyone who works here, we’re available to help you. We’re not pushing you toward personal training just because you have a simple question on how to do a particular exercise or how to use a piece of equipment.”

Service makes the business stand out, she said.

“I’m trying to get to know the members,” she said. “I’m trying to get to know, establish a relationship with each of our members. It’s important to me that they come in, that they feel welcome, that they don’t feel judged.”

Louise Povlin said she has run since she was 18. It began as a method to stay in shape, but now it’s for both staying in shape and stress relief.

“I’m very passionate about exercise because I know it works, and I know the benefits of it,” she said.

Earning substate berth, Lady Ads’ shutout streak extends ■ ALAN SLOAN

asloan@farragutpress.com

Thirty-three days and counting, spanning 10 games, since the Farragut Lady Admirals soccer team was scored upon.

“Our assistant coaches just told us it’s been over a month since somebody scored a goal on us,” said senior forward Katie Cloud, one of six different FHS players scoring goals, during Farragut’s

6-0 home laugher against Powell in a Region 2-AAA semifinal Tuesday night, Oct. 22.

“The last goal we had [scored] on us was Bearden,” Cloud added about a 61 FHS reg- Lady Admirals 6 ular seaPowell 0 son win Sept. 19.

The Class AAA state championship contending Lady Ads (162-3), District 4-AAA regular sea-

son and tourney champ, earned a Section 1-AAA berth and a rematch with District 4-AAA Tournament runner-up Hardin Valley Academy (16-1-4) in the Region 2-AAA championship game.

Though struggling a bit early in the season, “I think we’ve really picked it up,” Farragut senior midfielder Katie Beuerlein said.

The Lady Hawks, a 2-0 winner against District 3-AAA tourney

champ Oak Ridge at ORHS in Tuesday’s other 2-AAA semifinal, travel to Farragut Intermediate School field for a 7 p.m. opening kick tonight, Thursday, Oct. 24.

Versus a 3-0 district tourney championship win against HVA Friday, Oct. 18, “I’m expecting maybe a closer game,” said senior defender Josie Jennings, a Tennessee Lady Vols commitment.

“However, if we come with our best effort and best mindset, I

think we’ll pull through with a victory, hopefully. But I don’t want to get too overconfident.”

Head coach Dennis Lindsay’s team led in shots-on-goal 23-2 and didn’t allow the Lady Panthers a first half shot-on-goal.

“We’ve been playing pretty good as of late,” he said. “We’ve got all of our players back and we’ve doing pretty well.”

Lady Admirals advance to state ■

KEN LAY Correspondent

Farragut High School’s volleyball team used a complete effort to punch its ticket to Murfreesboro Thursday, Oct. 17.

The Lady Admirals overcame a second-set loss to down Science Hill 25-12, 22-25, 25-13, 25-15 in a Section 1-AAA match at Lynn E. Sexton Gymnasium to clinch a spot in the Class AAA state tournament, which opened Wednesday, Oct. 23, in Middle Tennessee.

“It was an overall team effort from all angles,” FHS head coach Susan Davidson said. “We had a good team effort here tonight.”

That might’ve been the understatement of the year. The Lady Ads got contributions from all over the court against the Lady Hilltoppers, who finished the year with a 32-16 record.

Farragut (46-8) darted to a fast start and pretty much dominated things all night with the exception of a hiccup in the second set where it blew an early 12-7 lead.

“I knew we would come back,” said junior Raegan Grooms, who scored the match point on a service ace. “That [ace] was huge and there’s no better feeling than going to state.

“That’s what we’ve dreamed about and what we’ve worked hard for all season.”

Farragut, which won the Region 2-AAA championship two days earlier with wins over host

Karns and rival Bearden, jumped to a 7-1 lead in the opening set and won the game with relative ease. Natalie Hartman scored six consecutive points after a sideout to give the Lady Ads a 6-1 lead and Science Hill never recovered in the first set.

Hartman finished the match with nine kills — all of which came at crucial times according to Davidson.

“Natalie Hartman was on fire tonight,” Davidson said. “She had nine kills but they were nine special ones just at the right times.”

And Hartman was only part of the story for Farragut, which entered action in Murfreesboro seeking its first state volleyball championship.

Senior setter Tessa Watson finished with 22 assists and provided a defensive spark with 11 digs.

Grooms had 12 kills and 16 digs.

Emma Milstead, the Lady Ads’ other setter, had 14 assists. She also added 13 kills and six digs.

“This feels amazing,” said Farragut senior Aditi Rangnekar, who missed the 2012 season due to injury. “We played so hard and we really played well together.”

It wasn’t as easy as it could’ve been for the Lady Admirals.

Farragut opened a 12-7 lead in the second set bu lost 22-25, making things a bit difficult for FHS. “We were a little nervous after the second game,” Rangnekar said.

Ads big plays spark win in battle of west Knox rivals ■

Admirals quarterback Bryan Phillips, 8, runs the ball against Bearden. It was one of many big plays in the Ads victory.

TONY MANILLA Correspondent

The Farragut Admirals moved one step closer to the postseason Thursday Admirals 38 evening, using big Bulldogs 6 plays to spoil the Bulldogs home finale and claim a satisfying 38-6 victory over their archrivals.

A district win at Bill Young Field Oct. 17 was crucial for the Ads’ playoff push, and to claim one at the hands of the Bulldogs (2-6), made their triumph that much sweeter.

“There’s not many things that beat this feeling,” senior defensive tackle Chris Farner said. “We came and played our hearts out, and it s h o w e d tonight.”

Farragut (5-3, 4-1 District 4AAA) was Phillips powered by three touchdown catches from wideout Aaron Suadi in what was a spectacular game for the senior.

“It’s big for me because it’s my first year starting, me and Bryan {Phillips, senior QB} had been practicing those big plays all week, and we just came out and executed,” Suadi said.

Whenever the Ads needed to make a play, Phillips simply called Suadi’s number, and the pair connected on two vital touchdowns in the first half.

With the Admirals clinging to a 10-6 lead early in the second quarter after Phillips’ pass was picked off by Bulldogs’ safety Hunter Henry, their defense See ADMIRALS on Page 4B

Hawks dominated by West thanks to speed ■

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

How dominant is your team after it commits four first-half turnovers yet carries a 31-point lead into halftime?

West, ranked No. 2 in Class 5A statewide, overcame serious offensive blunders with serious burning speed, running through Hardin Valley Academy early and often on West 49 big plays en route Hawks 12 to a 49-12 District 4-AAA victory on HVA Senior Night Friday, Oct. 18.

Touchdown plays of 80 and 61 yards (runs from scrimmage), 60 (punt return), 57 (screen pass) and 47 (interception) led the way toward improving the Rebels’ record to 7-1 overall, 4-1 in district. The Hawks fell to 4-4 overall, 2-3 in district.

“I’ve just got to give them credit, they just came out and executed better,” said Hawks senior defensive back Chris Thomas, who had an interception and 15-yard return.

“We just didn’t come out and execute to our full potential.

“I promise you next week we’ll be back in it,” he added.

Hawks junior lineman Garrett Curtis said, “There were the little

things that they kind of got us on.

Speed was definitely one of the things they had us on tonight. No. 5 [Nathan Cottrell, both long scoring runs], he’s just a fast kid.

It was hard for us to contain him all night.”

“We knew we couldn’t make mistakes and set those guys up.

And we did. We threw an interception, didn’t cover well on a punt and they ran a punt back for a touchdown,” HVA head coach Wes Jones said. “And we let their skill players get out on space, and you can’t do that against this football team. They’re a good team with a lot of speed. … What really separates them from other teams is they’re just really good on special teams.”

West walked off with “The Sword & and the Talons” trophy, the annual rivalry prize between the schools.

After senior defensive end Matt Brewer recovered a West fumble, the first of two he scooped up Friday, Hardin Valley went 24 yards in two plays to cut West’s lead to 14-6. An 8yard Ryan Ferguson run preceded a trick play where most of the Hawks offensive backfield went to the right after the snap. But senior fullback Joe Underwood fooled the defense with a walk-in touchdown to the left with 1:58 left in the first quarter. The

conversion failed.

The Hawks went 61 yards for its last touchdown late in the first half, as two Jordan Jackson runs totaling 21 yards and a 15-yard Brewer reception were highlights.

with 42.2 seconds left. Sam Pendergrast added the extra point.

“We wanted to go tempo on them … because we wanted some of those guys to really have to run to see what kind of shape they

were in,” West head coach Scott Cummings said.

“We’ve had bigger, more physical teams, but probably none that have had this much speed and athleticism,” added Cummings, in his 12th season at West.

around in the box, junior forward Kendall Clay tapped home the goal, assisted by junior defender Natalie Goetz, in the 18th minute.

Grace Sommi, freshman defender who Lindsay praised for her overall play, made it 3-0 in the 36th minute with a perfectly placed goal from about 35 yards out, at a sharp angle right near the sideline, as Gilley got her hands on the sailing ball but couldn’t control it.

The Lady Admirals went up 4-0 less than two minutes into the second half after Cloud’s nifty

crossing pass near the right corner found an open Jeter, who scored in front from five yards out.

Beuerlein’s penalty kick upped the lead to 5-0 in the 49th minute.

Barely more than one minute later, Ward nailed a goal on the right side, about 20 yards out.

“They’re definitely the most talented team we’ve played overall,” said Powell head coach Mark Smith, as his Lady Panthers, District 3-AAA Tournament runner-up, finish the season 11-8-3.

Cloud started the Farragut scoring by following up her own shot, scoring on a rebound off Lady Panthers senior goalkeeper Deidre Gilley from about 10 yards out in the sixth minute.

Nice passing between Cloud and junior forward Emma Jeter starting at midfield, with Jeter’s pass from the left side to Cloud ending in a corner kick by junior midfielder K.C. Ward, led to the second goal.

Kelly crucial in Spartans’ victory ■

TONY MANILLA Correspondent

Ever since his commitment to The University of Tennessee back in March, the hype continues to build around Webb senior defensive back Todd Kelly.

Those in attendance Friday evening Spartans 49 got to see first hand Ezell-Harding 7 why UT head coach Butch Jones and his staff aggressively sought after his services for next fall, as the Spartans (5-2, 4-0 Division II-A) blew away an overmatched EzellHarding (2-7, 2-4) squad 49-7.

Kelly showed just how versatile he can be, making his presence felt in all three phases of the

caught a break when BHS sophomore Chase Berry fumbled an attempted toss sweep. FHS linebacker Ryan Glintenkamp snatched up the loose football and suddenly the Ads were in business at the Bearden 40-yard line.

On the very next play from scrimmage, Phillips gave a playaction fake lofted a high-arching pass to a wide open Suadi, sending the Admirals into the locker room ahead 17-6.

Though the score line read otherwise, the Bulldogs had Farragut sweating in the early going, as quarterback Xavier Johnson sidestepped an FHS defender and outran the rest on his way to a mesmerizing 29-yard touchdown run early in the first quarter.

Despite the absence of star tailback Malachi Horton (shoulder injury), the Dawgs’ offense had a solid ebb and flow throughout the first half. But chances to take control of the game were undone by two costly turnovers and a bungled fake field goal attempt, all of which occurred in Farragut territory.

Still, the Bulldogs remained in

game before the halftime whistle had blown. He opened the scoring with a 42-yard punt return, weaving his way patiently through defenders on his way to paydirt.

The next possession, the Spartans took over deep in E z e l l Harding territory after a Kelly poor punt gave them the ball at the Golden Eagles’ 13 yard line. Kelly scored on the ensuing play, but the touchdown was called back for holding.

No matter. Kelly took the next striking distance going into halftime. But Farragut tight end Billy Williams had seen enough.

The 240-pound senior took the second half kickoff and rumbled 99 yards for a score, silencing the home fans in the process.

“That killed us,” Bulldogs’ offensive tackle Chandler Greer admitted. “That set the tone for the second half. Credit to Billy Williams, but we have to get better than that.”

While Williams and Suadi provided the fireworks on Farragut’s offense, senior defensive linemen Chris Farner and Landon Footy took control of the line of scrimmage and shut out Dawgs’ offense in the second half.

“We pride ourselves on being in condition and working harder than everybody else,” Farner said.

“And at the end of the day, when the fourth quarter comes, that’s when we’re at our best.”

The Ads will look to ride the momentum of a big win when they host William Blount this week if they want to keep their playoff hopes in their own hands.

“This is something we need to build on,” said Farner. “We’re moving ahead in our district, and we need to stay focused and make sure we don’t fall asleep on a good

handoff and did it all over again, putting Webb up 14-0 early in the first quarter.

The Spartans star promptly intercepted Harding quarterback Jason Clark’s pass on the Eagles next drive, then stepped aside to let his teammates get into the act.

Senior quarterback Johnny Chun tossed a pair of touchdown passes to junior Brock Beeler (who also contributed an interception on defense and another touchdown on the ground) and Kelly, and running back Robby Strachan got himself on the board with a short scoring run up the middle that gave the home team a 28-0 advantage.

Webb used its steady Wing-T attack to build a 42-0 lead over the undermanned Golden Eagles

(who starting lineup consisted almost entirely of freshman and sophomores). Then Kelly decided it was time for his closing number.

In an impressive display of speed, the senior took a simple pitch play to his right and raced 82 yards to the end zone, leaving the Ezell-Harding defense well behind him.

With the Mercy Rule in effect for the second half, the focused Spartans cruised in businesslike fashion to a 49-7 victory and clinched home-field advantage throughout the playoffs.

“Its not about the team that we play, its about how we play,” Kelly said. “We come out here to win, regardless of who we play we come out and play hard every game.”

The Spartans will host

Knoxville Catholic (7-1, 3-0 District 4-AA) next Thursday night, Oct. 24, renewing an always hotly contested rivalry. Webb head coach Dave Meske has his team hitting its stride, however, as quarterback Chun, wide receiver Beeler, and running backs Matt Melton and Strachan are proven playmakers who will give the Irish defense lots more to be concerned about than simply slowing down Kelly.

“Catholic is a great team so we are definitely going to have to bring it,” Kelly said . “It’s a Thursday game so we need to have some good practices on Monday and Tuesday, and hopefully come out with the win. It’s going to be a great game and a great crowd.”

William Blount team, because they will be ready to play.”

For the Bulldogs, a season that started with high hopes has gone south, but Greer and his team-

mates refuse to give up and seek to end this season on a high note.

“Losing should never be acceptable, but in the end its about having fun,” Greer said.

“That’s why we play football.

We’ve got some things to work on, but we’re going to enjoy the moment, especially if you’re a senior.”

Knox Catholic nabbs a perfect home season record ■

KEN LAY Correspondent

It wasn’t a thing of beauty but Knoxville Catholic High School’s football team nabbed a 35-2 District 4-AA victory over Scott County Friday night before a near-capacity crowd at KCHS’s Blaine Stadium.

The win culminated a perfect home season and bounced back from a recent loss at Anderson County.

The Irish (7-1 overall, 3-0 in the district) overcame injuries and four turnovers to record a lopsided win over the Highlanders (6-3, 1-3).

“It was a pretty sloppy game overall but it’s a Fighting Irish 35 win,” said Scott County 2 Irish firstyear head coach Steve Matthews.

The Irish, who entered the game with 10 starters out due to injury, did have enough thanks to some big plays. KCHS scored on its third play from scrimmage when senior running back Elijah Brown rumbled 26 yards to the end zone. Wyatt Price’s extra point gave the Irish a 7-0 lead with 11 minutes, 4 seconds remaining in the first quarter.

“This was a special night and I’m grateful that we won,” said Brown, who rushed for 165 yards and three scores.

Catholic’s defense has been big this season and the Irish’s seven wins and this game was no exception. KCHS, which secured a playoff berth, got its second touchdown when Harrison Huber scored on a 46-yard interception return to make it 14-0 midway through the opening frame.

“We needed that,” Huber said.

“It got tipped. One of our other guys couldn’t get it.

“I got it and I had some great blockers.”

In addition to the interception, Catholic’s defense forced three fumbles (and recovered two) and had two more interceptions.

Catholic, which also had four turnovers, held the Highlanders on downs four times.

Scott got its only points on a safety on an errant snap that landed in the end zone as time expired in the opening frame.

Brown, the son of former Tennessee football player Terry Brown, had a pair of long touchdown scampers in the second quarter. His first of the stanza covered 50 yards and extended Catholic’s advantage to 21-2 with 7:09 left in the opening half. He added a 51-yard scoring dash at the 4:56 mark to make it 28-2.

Irish starting quarterback Zac Jancek, who set out the second half with an injury to his nonthrowing hand, closed out the scoring with an 18-yard scamper inside the final minute of the second quarter.

After Jancek exited, Catholic used three quarterbacks: Logan Lacey, Luke Smith and Nick Lentz. The Irish offense sputtered after halftime. Catholic’s fast start, however, would prove too much for the Highlanders to overcome.

“It’s always good to get off to a fast start,” Huber said. “It gets the fans and everybody involved in the game.”

Lacey agreed.

“We just came out and worked

hard in practice,” he said. “It was great to get off to a good start because we have a lot of players who go both ways.”

Thanks to the blowout, injuryriddled Irish squad was able to get the seniors and some other reserves some valuable playing time.

“It was good to get those guys in because we’re going to need

them,” Brown said. “We got a chance to see what those guys could do.”

Catholic concluded its regularseason home schedule but the Irish still have a pair of tough games ahead.

KCHS travels to face rival Webb tonight (Thursday, Oct. 24). The Irish will look to stop a four-game losing streak in the series for before

heading to Alcoa next week for a game that will determine the district championship.

“We still have a lot of football left to play,” Lacey said. “A win over Webb would be big for our seniors.

“It would also be big for our school because they’re such a hated rival.”

Motivated by revenge, Alcoa routs CAK ■

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

ALCOA — A state powerhouse was eating and sleeping revenge, chomping at the bit to pound Christian Academy of Knoxville.

After all, Warriors playoff victories against Alcoa likely cost the Tornadoes Class 3A state championships the previous two seasons.

Combining Alcoa’s fury, physical play, overall talent and greater Alcoa 51 experience with Warriors 17 Christian Academy of Knoxville’s youth and the outcome wasn’t surprising.

Scoring touchdowns on its first four possessions, including a 72yard touchdown run by Malik Love, the state’s top-ranked Class 3A Tornadoes (7-1) rolled 51-17 at AHS Friday night, Oct. 18.

CAK sophomore receiver Phillip Nichols, a big target in the Warriors’ offense, said Alcoa plays “smash-mouth football, I guess. Solid people.”

Jaquez Tyson, the Tornadoes’ elusive yet powerful workhorse back, added two TD runs of 1 yard plus a 12-yard score.

Peyton Wall, Alcoa senior quarterback, had touchdown runs of 9 and 19 yards and threw 56 yards to Love for another TD.

“We’re young. The majority of our sophomores are starting, I think,” Nichols said about his Warriors after dropping to 2-6.

“And Cole Smith [quarterback] is a freshman.

“We’re growing. We’ve got to hang in there,” he added. “This year’s been full of difficulties and tribulations.”

However, “We’re still trying to make the playoffs,” Nichols said.

“We’ve got to win our next two games.”

Smith’s passing to Nichols and senior Whitaker Cunningham, plus the running of senior Drew Jost comprised most of CAK’s offense.

Senior kicker Stephen’s Neu’s 38-yard field goal late in the first quarter drew the Warriors to within 7-3.

Christian Academy’s only touchdown drive went 66 yards in seven plays, ending with a Smith-to-Nichols 6-yard TD pass with 4:37 left in the first half, cutting the Alcoa lead to 21-10.

Nichols’ 44-yard reception from Smith was the big play setting up the score.

Nichols said he and Smith “have had chemistry since middle school” as a pass-catch tandem on CAK Middle School team.

In [Nichols’] eight-grade [season] I think he threw for 500 yards to me. He did great stuff last year on the middle school

team.”

An interception and 62-yard return for a touchdown by Davis Hatmaker, CAK sophomore defensive back, accounted for CAK’s second-half scoring.

“It was kind of a blur at first,” Hatmaker said. “I had a couple of sweep blocks from my teammates, so they just kind of helped

me score. When I caught it, I thought to break to the sideline.

And then I saw big ole No. 60 [Alcoa’s Kyle Malik Mitchell] coming around, and then I thought I saw John Zavracky, No. 79, make a sweet block, and cut [Mitchell] off, so I was able to evade that. And after that I was just hoping to reach the end

zone.”

Wall said revenge “is what got us hyped. That’s what we came out here to do is get revenge.”

However, “As it is every year, their passing attack is always the best,” Wall added about Christian Academy. “… We’re not used to playing teams that just pass every time.”

The fourth set was another rout for the Lady Admirals. Farragut had an 8-6 advantage before Grooms scored twice and gave Farragut a 10-6 lead with an ace.

From there, the two teams traded points before Watson’s three points (and two aces) gave the Lady Ads a 16-8 edge.

Science Hill pulled to within 16-9 before surrendering a sideout to make it 17-9 before Howell answered with three points to give FHS a 20-9 edge which would prove too much for the Lady Hilltoppers to overcome.

The Lady Ads would score five of the next 11 points and Grooms’ ace would send Farragut to the state tournament.

The Lady Ads have some lofty expectations.

“We’re going there to win,” Grooms said. “We couldn’t have done this without each other.”

Watson said the sectional win was “incredible.”

“This is just the best feeling in the world,” she said.

Lady Ads From page 2B

But the Lady Admirals quickly shook off the nerves and opened an 8-1 lead in the third set and never trailed again.

“I was a little nervous but I wasn’t worried about it,” Davidson said. “Science Hill is a good team and I was really impressed with the way the girls responded.”

In the third set, it was Watson who set the tone. Farragut took a 1-0 lead on a side-out before she scored five consecutive points and had three aces on a big service run.

“Tessa Watson has done a good job quarterbacking our team,” Davidson said.

Farragut also benefited from a key service run by freshman back row specialist Madi Howell, who scored seven consecutive points to give the home team a 22-9 lead.

The Lady Hilltoppers made a modest run before Farragut finally clinched the set.

Rivalries, surprises, routs dominate Week 8 ■

Photo submitted

It's off to the races as Knox Catholic running back Logan Lacey tries to outdistance Scott County defender Austin Stephens during the Irish's 35-2 win over the Highlanders Friday, Oct. 18, at Blaine Stadium.

KEN LAY Correspondent

It was a week of rivalries and routs in the farragutpress How the West Was Won Presented by 3 Minute Magic Carwash trophy chase.

Week 8 saw Farragut avenge last year’s overtime loss to Bearden with a 38-6 win that likely dashed the Bulldogs’ playoff hopes. Two-time defending Class 3A state champion Christian Academy of Knoxville lost 51-17 to Alcoa in that traditional rivalry game.

West High toppled Hardin Valley Academy 49-12 in a District 4-AAA showdown and Knoxville Catholic celebrated Senior Night with a 35-2 victory over Scott at Blaine Stadium.

At Bearden, the Admirals overcame a 6-3 deficit to score 35 unanswered points in a win Thursday, Oct. 17. Farragut’s Bryan Phillips tossed three touchdown passes to Aaron Suadi, who finished with five receptions for 108 yards. Tanner Thomas rushed for 130 yards and a touchdowns for the Ads (5-3 overall, 4-1 in District 4-AAA).

Carter Phillipy put Farragut up early with a 34yard field goal before Bearden (2-6, 2-3) answered on Xavier Johnson’s 28-yard scoring dash. Billy Williams also scored on a 99-yard kickoff return for FHS, which hosts William Blount this week. The Governors (2-6, 1-4) lost to Maryville 66-7 last week.

Bearden, meanwhile, will travel to Maryville.

CAK and Alcoa tangled Friday night in Blount County and the Tornadoes (7-1 overall, 3-0 in District 4AA) darted to a 28-10 lead by halftime and never looked back. CAK and Alcoa have combined to win the last nine Class 3A state championships. The War-riors (2-6, 1-2) had won three of the last four meetings between the two schools. CAK swept a pair from Alcoa in 2011. The Warriors and Tornadoes split last season with CAK prevailing in 2012’s state quarterfinals.

SCOTT TATE presents

On Friday however, it was Alcoa which came away with a lopsided victory. CAK freshman quarterback Cole Smith, making his second start, went 16-for-33 and had a touchdown pass to Phillip Nichols. Smith also threw four interceptions. CAK hosts Livi-ngston Academy Friday in a battle of 2-6 teams. Livingston lost to Upperman 41-34 last week.

Hardin Valley Academy had a long Thursday night Oct. 17 in a 49-12 home loss to the Rebels (7-1, 4-1).

The Hawks (4-4, 2-3) scored all 12 of their points before halftime. Joe Underwood and Jordan Jackson each had a rushing touchdown.

HVA’s defense had no answer for West High, which accumulated 463 yards, including 331 on the ground.

The Hawks travel to Lenoir City this week and the winner of this game will keep its playoff hopes alive.

The Panthers (4-4, 2-3) outlasted Heritage 7-2 Friday night in a defensive struggle.

Meanwhile at Catholic, the Irish bounced back from a 61-40 loss at Anderson County in Week 7. The win over the Highlanders (6-3, 1-3) netted KCHS a playoff spot and culminated a perfect home campaign.

Senior running back Elijah Brown scored three touchdowns and rushed for 165 yards for the banged up Irish. Catholic’s defense pitched a shutout as Scott’s only points came on a safety. The Irish defense scored a touchdown on Harrison Huber’s 46yard interception return.

Catholic overcame turnovers and injuries in its most recent win. The Irish played without 10 starters. KCHS had four turnovers, including three lost fumbles.

Catholic travels to Webb tonight (Oct. 24) to face the Spartans in an intense rivalry game.

Webb (5-2), which beat Ezell-Harding last week, has won four straight against the Irish.

Catholic’s last win in the series came in 2008 when the Irish went undefeated and won a state championship.
