VOLUME 90, NO. 44
’ By Jacob Hatcher For the Enquirer The Morgan County Parks and Recreation Department unveiled the first ever countyowned gymnasium this past Friday. Located at Morgan County West Park, the gymnasium is the fruition of an idea that was born in 2019 for the county to be able to discontinue using
the school gyms for community events and have a space the public owned independently in order to have a full breadth of events available to the community. The $2.1 million athletic venue has 10,500 square feet for basketball, volleyball and community events. The construction cost came from a settlement with 3M over chemical contaminants and $160,000 donated by Daikin
America of Decatur, according to Morgan communications director Michael Wetzel. Speaking of the accelerated and efficient timeline of the project, Morgan County Commisioner Randy Vest said, “I’m so thankful that we live in the area that we do; that we can serve and get things accomplished. We appreciate everybody’s hand that made this happen because it was a team effort.” “As you go inside and see the
beautiful floors and molder bleachers I also see its future,” Morgan County Parks and Recreation Director Sean Dailey said. “The future where we’re going to have coaches that are going to make impacts on young people’s lives, we’re going to have those kids that will have their shining moments that will stick with them forever, we’re going to have the relationships that are going to be built that will last kids a lifetime.”
Dailey said that they are in the process of hiring a full time employee to manage the gym. In the meantime there will be staff available to open the gym for the public. Dailey also said that hours of operation will be driven by the needs of the community. Dailey anticipates having the gym be open widely within a couple of weeks. The gym is located at 74 West Park Road, Hartselle, in the Neel community.

Flu season here, experts say get vaccinated By Erica Smith For the Enquirer Jill Phelps brought her 16-year-old daughter, Kylee Sircy, to last week’s Morgan County drive-thru flu shot clinic because they want to stop the spread of illness. “(Sircy) has a 1½-year-old niece,” Phelps said. “We don’t want anybody to get sick in the house.” Phelps, 36, said the drivethru clinic was easier and cheaper to bring her daughter to than anywhere else. She said she receives her vaccine at Decatur Morgan Hospital where she works. Phelps and Sircy, both from Hartselle, said they have received a flu shot every year of their lives. Sircy said influenza vaccinations are important because “they prevent you and others from getting sick.” Both Sircy and Phelps said they have never tested positive for the flu and believe it is because they have received a flu shot annually. Phelps said influenza vaccinations help “prevent spreading the flu, keep people out of the hospital.” Angela Priest, from unincorporated Limestone County, is a registered nurse with the Morgan County Health Department and said influenza vaccinations are very important. “It reduces the illness burden on the community,” she said. “The more of us that are vaccinated, it reduces the burden on the people who more easily to get sick. To me, that’s the importance.” Dr. Wes Stubblefield, district medical officer for the Alabama Department of Public Health, said flu activity in Alabama histori-

cally peaks in December or January. “The flu season is considered anything usually from October to March,” he said. “We’ve had activity as early as September, although that’s very unusual, and then we’ve had late surges even up into the spring.” Getting an influenza vaccination is especially important for those that are high risk, Stubblefield said. “The flu vaccine, especially for those that are at high risk of complications from the flu — older individuals, those with chronic medical conditions, the younger children — the vaccine can prevent serious issues from the flu, including hospitalization and potentially even death,” he said. “Because the flu can be a deadly illness in certain people, the recommendation is for everyone to consider a flu vaccine.” Stubblefield said the vaccination should protect against the four predicted influenza strains for this season. He said now is the time to get a flu vaccination. “We encourage people to get vaccinated in September, October so that their protection will last the whole season, but they’re protected against early activity,” Stubblefield said. “If you get vaccinated in September, October, you should have protection through the season.” The flu vaccine, Stubblefield said, cannot cause the flu. “Sometimes people can feel a little achy as your body makes a response to the vaccine; that’s your immune system responding to the vaccine. The flu vaccine cannot give you the flu; that’s not the way the vaccine works,” he said.

A group of Hartselle Junior High students visit the Alabama Robotics Technology Park mobile unit during the Endless Opportunities Job Fair at Ingalls Harbor Pavilion on Oct. 19.
By Wes Tomlinson For the Enquirer The eighth graders who attended a career expo Thursday won’t be in the workforce for a few years, but more than 50 businesses and industries took the opportunity to give them a preview of the many careers that will be available to them. The Endless Opportunities Job Fair, a hands-on career expo hosted by the Decatur-Morgan County Chamber of Commerce, began Thursday at Ingalls Harbor Pavilion. Representatives of numerous companies answered questions and engaged with students about the specifics of their jobs. The expo Thursday was exclusively for Morgan County eighth graders, with a repeat of the event planned Friday hosting Limestone County eighth graders. Fisher Nix, an eighth grade student at Hartselle Junior High School, was wearing a blue hat with the Cook’s Pest Control logo on it along with several of his classmates. “Actually, I never thought about it before today, but I might look into Cook’s as a career,” he said. The Madagascar hissing cockroaches and tarantula that Cook’s had on display at its booth got his interest, Nix said. See LOCAL, page 5

FLU

Honoring Life

Stubblefield said the flu vaccine does not provide immediate protection. “It takes about two weeks for the antibodies to get to the point where they’re protective,” he said. Stubblefield said it is up to each individual whether they get the flu and COVID vaccines at the same time. “It is perfectly acceptable to get them at the same time,” he said. “There is no recommendation for or against it.” Judy Smith, north district area administrator for the Alabama Department of Public Health, said there were fewer vaccinations given out at last week’s flu clinic than in years past. “It was about half the size of the clinic last year,” she said. “Last year they did just over 200, this year they did 108 at the clinic.” Smith said they have seen numbers drop at all the large drive-thru flu clinics around the district and she has heard of the same thing happening around the state. “There are a lot more pharmacies than there were in grocery stores, in big box stores; Publix, Kroger’s, all of those stores have phar-
served in the US Army. He loved to garden both flowers and vegetables, camping and being outdoors. He enjoyed coon hunting and loved his two coon dogs. Above all, he loved his family and was dearly loved by his family. Preceding him in death are his parents, daughter “Barbie” Taylor; brothers, James “Jimmy” Taylor, Jackie Taylor, Kenneth Taylor, Howard Taylor; sisters, Barbara Bowen, and Dorothy Taylor. Survivors include his wife of almost 62 years this November, Ruth Cobb Taylor; one son Troy Taylor (Vicky); two foster sons Larry Nelson and Steve Nelson; two daughters Cathy Hooper (Clint) and Retta Ricketts (Tim); one brother Joe Taylor; two sisters Elaine Brickman and Sheila Brickman; eight grandchildren and nine great grandchildren. Pall bearers will be Trey Taylor, Cory Shadden, Adam Shadden, Thomas Ricketts, Fabian Kontos and Steve Nelson. Honorary pallbearer will be Caleb Rayburn.
Gary Hill
Somerville A Memorial service for Gary Hill, 70, will be Sunday, October 29, 2023 at 3:00 PM at Soul Harbor Baptist Church with Bro. Ralph Henderson officiating and Peck Funeral Home directing. Mr. Hill died on Tuesday, October 24, 2023 at his residence. He was born August 28, 1953, in Morgan County, to Clarence James Hill and Luda Mae Zills Hill. Mr. Hill was employed as a Stock Clerk for Thrifty Wise, Hill’s Grocery and Harold’s Market, throughout his working career, where he worked with his family and never met a stranger. He was a very kind soul and was always kind to everyone he met. He was a wonderful husband, father and brother. Preceding him in death were his parents, a brother, Kenneth Hill and his wife, Ruby Hill, and a brother-in law, James Gray. Survivors include his wife Shirley Johnson Hill; son Shane Hill; daughter Christa Rogers (Eddie); daughter Harold Hill (Jo); sister Gloria Gray and his granddog Chichi. macies that give the vaccine,” she said. “Our hope is that there are more resources and more availability, and the convenience, people are availing themselves of that.” However, Smith said the low clinic numbers may point to a problem. “It is our hope that it is not a vaccine weariness situation,” she said. “During the pandemic and with all of the other things that have gone on, people have just gotten weary of disease and vaccinations. We are cautiously watching that in hopes that that’s not the situation.” Smith said influenza and pneumonia, which is often a result of the flu, are among the top 10 leading causes of death in Alabama. Toni Richie, from Hartselle, is a registered nurse at the Morgan County Health Department. She said the drive-thru clinic was not the only opportunity for people to get vaccinated against the flu with the Health Department. “They can go Monday through Friday to any county health department and get their vaccine,” she said. “We prefer they come by 3:30 p.m. or 4 p.m. so that we can get them serviced and out.”

land for theft of property in the first degree.
A citizen of Hartselle reported the theft of two utility trailers from their residence. Sheffield began an investigation and located the suspect vehicle used to obtain the two trailers. Sheffield then developed Whitehead and Moore as the suspects, and they were found to be in possession
of the trailers. Whitehead and Moore were arrested for theft of property in the first degree, then booked into the Morgan County Jail. Both were given a $5,000 dollar bond. Courtland Police assisted with the arrest and recovery of stolen property.
fl By Erica Smith For the Enquirer The Morgan County Emergency Management Agency has received a state grant to perform a commodity flow study which officials said will be vital in letting them know what hazardous materials pass through the county. “We are needing this so that we can do an update of our emergency preparedness plan for hazardous materials,” Morgan County Emergency Management Agency Specialist Jennifer Hempfling said. “We’re beginning with the commodity flow study to know what exactly comes through on our roads, our trains, our barges.” Jonathan Warner, Morgan County EMA director, said a commodity flow study is critical to EMA. “With so much industry that we have here in Morgan County, knowing what comes in and out of this county is crucial to our emergency preparedness plan and making sure that we’re doing our due diligence,” he said. “This is just more information that we’ll have just to make our plans better.” Warner said they will focus on materials that create the greatest threat. “What we’ll pay attention to when we get it in is our most hazardous substances that come in,” he said.
“The difference between a standard chemical coming through that doesn’t pose a big threat to the public and a hazardous material — a substance that does pose a threat to the public — is huge.” In the case of a hazardous material spill or leak, Warner said, EMA’s response would vary depending on how hazardous the material was. “Plants and ... industries here in Morgan County have to notify EMA about what materials they have and what materials that they store there at their locations,” he said, as well as “how much they actually go through and how much is actually being brought in and the routes they’re being brought in and how they’re being brought in. Is it rail, is it over the interstate, was it brought in by barge, all information that just helps us if there is an incident.”
Warner said they follow a protocol when there is a hazardous spill or leak. “The first two things that we ask when we’re notified of a hazardous material incident is what is the material and what is the quantity of it,” he said. “Those are the first two questions we want answered. That first question of what material it is really points us into the direction of how we’re going to respond and what all agencies need to be involved.” The Hazardous Materials Emergency Preparedness grant came from the Alabama EMA and the amount awarded was $27,970 with a match from Morgan County of about $6,000. At Tuesday’s Morgan County Commission meeting, the commission approved hiring JH Consulting LLC to perform the study. The contract runs from Monday through Sept. 20, 2024, but Hempfling said they do not
know yet when the study will take place. “We are getting the agreement with the firm that is going to do the work, so I would hope it would be soon,” Hempfling said. “We’re in the process of getting things underway.” Hempfling said she is unaware of a commodity flow study ever being conducted before in Morgan County. “There have been partial ones done, there have been traffic flow studies, but not commodity flow studies,” she said. Warner said the study will provide EMA with more knowledge of existing threats. “This will help us prepare and help us understand a little more of what’s coming through,” he said. “When we look at waterways, interstates, the railroad tracks, pipelines, multiple avenues of things coming through the county.” Before becoming EMA director on Aug. 28, Warner was the safety coordinator in the county’s Safety Department. Commission Chairman Ray Long said the safety department has been dissolved and is now a part of EMA. “I moved safety down to the EMA department where it used to be years ago,” Long said. “Jonathan did a great job as a safety (coordinator), so when I

Hill-Gray wedding was a blast
he wedding vows of Joe Hill and Meaghan Gray were exchanged in the company of their parents, Bob and Julie Hill of Athens and Jeff and Pam Gray of Hartselle on Saturday evening, Oct. 28, at Quail Creek Golf Course. The outdoor ceremony was conducted on a raised stage overlooking benched seating for over 100 guests. The Rev. Greg Cain, currently Morgan County Probate Judge, presided. The wedding party consisted of seven bridesmaids, three groomsmen and Layla Fullerton, cousin of the bride. Viewing the wedding party from front row benches were the bride’s parents, Clifton

hey say we’re going to wake up to some cold tomorrow and I could not be happier. Mostly because I am absolutely sick and tired of cutting grass. From the second I fire up the mower for the first time each spring I daydream of the morning I will wake up to frost on the ground. I realize there are those that enjoy yard work, and those people are masochists.

land. At least until tornado season rolls back around and blows it back down into the valley. It’s not just the lack of mowing that I love about fall though. The reasons are manifold. To begin with, November starts off with my children going door to door collecting candy that I will readily steal from them as they slumber. There’s also college football, which every good southerner is required to love. There’s marching band music, bonfires, and ghost stories. There’s the memories of a neighborhood filled with kids that felt like they had the world at their feet.

The Quail Creek facility offers complete accommodations for all large meeting events. In addition to championship level golf, it has a fully-functioning motel to accommodate visitors requiring overnight lodging. A chapel is available for individual or group worship. Resources are provided for business and industry events as well as family reunions and meeting and family gatherings. Space is also available for campers.
I think that’s what I love most about fall, the memories. The family gatherings and neighborhood football games. The chilly days spent in the woods alongside the Cumberland River, our comfort level boosted by the knowledge that most snakes were hibernating, or at least too slow to strike and bring about our doom. The leaves blowing across the ground is the soundtrack of another time; the smell of smoke on a flannel shirt is the aroma of a precious time. It wasn’t perfect, or even as good as I remember it, but it was our time and we loved it.
Autumn viewed from the patio
warm breeze blew out of the south scattering falling leaves across the yard as I eased down the ramp on a walker. Much to the displeasure of resident squirrels gathering acorns under the big oak tree, Sophie accompanied me. They scaled to limbs above and fussed at her from the safety of their perch. It had been several weeks since I had been able to get outside to the patio. I sat silently for an hour listening to the sounds of the out-of-doors and viewing the changes in nature as the seasons cycled. As I got comfortable in my chair a cantankerous crow cawed to me from the pines. In a moment the little house wren, who had abandoned her nest in the spring, chirped as she flittered about under the carport as if to say “I’m still around.” The humming-
bird feeder swung in the breeze. The little acrobatic flyers left on their journey to their winter abodes in warmer c l i m a t e s A. Ray Lee weeks ago.

The rays of the sun accentuated the changing hues of the leaves even though they are not yet in the fullness of color. The lawn has turned brown. One more mowing will be all it needs before winter sets in. The adjoining fields have been cut and the hay baled for
the last time before the delayed killing frost settles over it. The only farm sounds came from a neighbor bushhogging the weeds off his pastures. There were sights and sounds I remember so well from my youth that were missing. There were no cows patiently waiting to be milked in the barn lot. No fattening hogs were looking to be fed. No chickens were scratching in the ground around a barn looking for a stray kernel of grain. The work animals rolling in the dust after a long day in the field is just a distant memory. Many changes have occurred since the days of my youth when this area was an active and vital agriculture area. Now the row crops upon which we depended for a livelihood are a thing of the past. The only cotton fields and corn patches are those of commercial farmers who control

large tracts of land. Family gardens are for the most part things of the past. We get our milk and bread from grocery stores instead of providing them from the land. The face of the land has changed; the way we use it has evolved. We have not always been good stewards in our management. We have viewed it in the short term---what can it produce for us now without looking to its effect in the future. But there is a balance in nature and resilience created in its DNA. The seasons remind us that although nature has often been abused by our practices it has a way of bouncing back. When given time it heals itself. As the sun was setting, I came back into the house feeling that with patience and time I would be able to set aside the walker. I slept soundly and was refreshed by that knowledge.

Burleson students celebrate Farm Day
By Abigail Winsett For the Enquirer
On Sept. 29, F.E. Burleson Elementary School held its annual Farm Day celebration. During this event, students were introduced to the joys and wonders of agriculture. The event had its origins many years ago as a celebration of World Milk Day. Over time, it had transformed into a showcase of the various facets of agriculture. Throughout the day, students engaged in a range of activities centered around farming with the assistance of various community members. The day began with students creating their butter and savoring it on crackers. They then received a talk from Dr. Berry, a local veterinarian, about his daily work. Following this, employees from Redstone Credit Union shared the importance of farmers in the community. Furthermore, students had the opportunity to converse with Morgan County Master Gardeners Becky Laremore and Patricia Ludlow and experienced a hayride courtesy of Grant McKelvey and Jeff Hanners. Hartselle High School students also played a significant role in shaping Farm Day.
Those in the agricultural program brought farm animals, while the education academy students created hands-on learning opportunities. F.E.B. students had the chance to feed the animals brought by the AG students and plant sunflower seeds in a cup, which they could take home. Austyn Randolph, the new AG teacher at HHS, expressed that Hartselle FFA was honored to be a part of the event that highlights the significance of exposure to agriculture. Susan England, the STEM teacher at F.E.B., shared a similar perspective with Randolph regarding the importance of exposing students to the world of agriculture. She believes that the students at F.E.B. “may become our next generation of farmers,” emphasizing the need for ample education on the subject. The significance of F.E. Burleson’s Farm Day went beyond its educational aspects. As England pointed out, “including the community in the students’ hands-on learning is invaluable.” The day served as a means for students to connect with the world of agriculture, HHS students and the community as a whole.

That was the point, said Jason Kiefer, the training supervisor for Cook’s Pest Control. “It allows us to be able to interact with the kids and they get to see something they usually wouldn’t see on a normal basis,” he said.

In the Adult Division, the winners were: Cakes: Kathy Rutkowski’s Amish cream cheese pound cake, first; Amanda Holmes, second; Monica Brown, third.

The Eva Hall of Fame began in 2019 honoring two individuals each year; an active member of the community and in memory of someone who made an impact on the community. At the Merchant’s Dinner held on Sept.
26, Gwinn Mason, former principal, was inducted into the Eva Hall of Fame. His daughter Sharon Childers accepting on his behalf. The second recipient was Marcy Holmes. A spokesperson from Eva Bank said, “Always willing to lend a helping hand to someone in need, Marcy is known for her generosity and her cooking.” This year was the largest pig chase the festival has ever had according to Jeremy Oden. There were 24 different chases. Race winners were Olivia Hol-
man, Joyce Mosley, Haven Purser, Erin Walden, Ella Shaddix, Carson Stallings, Zamberlee Turner, Parker Johns, Payton Irmen, Aiden Hurd, Alright Mailin, Nicholas Wilson, Alexis Kimbril, Bradley Johnson, Shelby Morrow, Hunter Griffin, Brittany Kelley, Chris Wynn, Robin Maddix, Jason Merrit, Betty Dunn, Danny Boatright, Aubrey Miner and Bo Yancey.

been filling in as safety coordinator since he took his new position. He hired Mark Plemons to be the new safety coordinator, effective Oct. 23. “Us having a safety (coordinator) saves us thousands of dollars on our insurance every year, liability insurance and stuff,” Long said.
Currently, there are four full-time and one part-time employees in the EMA department. Plemons will be part-time and make the sixth employee under EMA. --New EMA trucks At Tuesday’s commission meeting, the commission
also approved the $40,872 purchase of a 2023 Ford F150 Supercrew 4x4 truck for EMA to be used by the new safety coordinator. “The EMA vehicles had gotten old and run down,” Long said. “This will be the third new vehicle we’ve bought for them trying to swap their vehicles out.”
Long said the vehicles had to be jumped off in order to run. “We had the issues looked at and it was issues that they couldn’t find the cause of,” Warner said. “When all is said and done, … we’ll have four vehicles total in EMA.” Warner said they need
trucks with large motors for their main function of hauling trailers. “This number is growing, but right now we have 10 trailers that EMA has,” he said. “Five of them are located here in Decatur, (five) of them are positioned across the county at fire departments.”
explain to them the importance of the job. “Just starting out as a technician, all you need is a high school diploma and you can make a really good living,” Kiefer said. “Even during the pandemic, we are an essential service. We never stopped working. People were staying home more and requesting pest control more so we were just as busy then as now.” The unemployment rate in Alabama is 2.1% and in Morgan County it’s 2%, according to the Alabama Depart-
ment of Labor, which means many local companies are struggling to fill labor gaps. Expos like this one are part of the long-term effort. “It’s tough and we are hiring weekly,” said Marquieta Wiley, project coordinator for Fite Building Co. Wiley represented Fite at the expo Thursday and instructed students to take apart a 2-foot-high series of wooden blocks without knocking them over, like a large Jenga game. She said now is the time to reach students while they are young
so they will consider trades like construction as they are nearing high school graduation. “We’re trying to pull trade back in,” Wiley said. “We go around to schools and try to reach kids and tell them there are good jobs you can get without a college degree if you can’t afford college. Trade jobs are good jobs.” Wiley said Fite provides all necessary training, including paying for employees to attend classes and training for their commercial driver’s license.
“We also do extension training and they can complete (occupational safety) certifications,” Wiley said. “We invest in people who show interest.” Workers at 3M Co. were also there to highlight their work. Human Resources Supervisor Ellory Cartagena said students can get hired right out of high school for several jobs they offer. “We hire production that doesn’t require any college, but we also have four-year college careers like engi-
neers and human resources positions,” Cartagena said. Amber Fortenberry from the Decatur-Morgan County Chamber of Commerce said the expo presents an opportunity for kids to have hands-on experience with companies as they exhibit and explain features of their work. Fortenberry, the director of talent development and recruitment, said this is her sixth year to be involved with the expo.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place granulated sugar in a small bowl. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, measure out a small portion of dough and roll it into a ball with your hands. The ball should be about the size of a ping-pong ball. Roll the dough ball in the sugar to coat. Place the ball on a cookie sheet that is lined with parchment paper. Repeat this process with the rest of the dough, about 12 cookies at a time on a standard cookie sheet. Bake for 10 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool for a few minutes then place them on a rack to cool completely. Repeat with all of the dough. Store the cookies in airtight container.

By Russell Frye For the Enquirer Another season has ended for the Hartselle Lady Tigers’ volleyball team. Unfortunately, it ended sooner than planned at the 6A North Super Regional. The Lady Tigers opened the tournament with a matchup with a ranked Buckhorn team. Hartselle had defeated the Lady Bucks in their only meeting this season. The Lady Tigers dispatched the Lady Bucks in a 3-0 sweep that set them up for a Matchup with top-ranked Mountain Brook in the second round. Amber Holshouser led the way with 25 assists, 16 digs and seven kills. Brooklyn Stiles added 32 digs. Katie Gillott had 10 kills and six digs, while Ashley Holshouser added nine kills and nine digs. “I am more than proud of our kids. They came into that tournament prepared and determined,” Hartselle head coach Lindsey Crumpton said. “I thought they did an exceptional job executing our game plan against Buckhorn.”
Hartselle and the Lady Spartans met just a few weeks ago, with Mountain Brook coming out on top. The Lady Spartans took control of the match early and defeated the Lady Tigers 3-0 to end Hartselle’s season. Amber Holshouser finished with 16 assists and 16 digs. Stiles added 19 digs, while Ashley Holshouser had 12 digs and six kills. “I hated that we came up short against Mountain Brook. That said, I have never been more proud of how our girls fought,” said Crumpton. “They never gave up against Mtn. Brook. We knew that Mtn. Brook would be the biggest obstacle we would face once we won the area, and they took the challenge headon.” Hartselle will lose seniors Ashley and Amber Holshouser and Brooklyn Stiles to graduation. “I hate that we will lose the Holshouser twins next year and Brooklyn Stiles,” said Crumpton. “All three players have been pillars in our program this year.

A win would give the Bulldogs their fourth firstround home playoff game in the past five years. The Bulldogs battled with the Raiders for four quarters but unfortunately came up on the losing end in a 28-24 loss.

Landon Powers passed for three touchdowns to three different receivers, including tosses to Kole Fitzgerald and Cash Lawrimore in the second quarter as the Blue Devils carried a 19-0 lead into halftime. Falkville pushed the lead to 32-0 with rushing touchdowns by Powers and Jackson Edmonson in the third quarter. Powers added another touchdown, this time to Logan Fowler, in the fourth quarter, while Denver Comstock rushed for a touchdown to extend their lead to 46-0 before Tharptown got in the board late with a rushing touchdown.

The Bulldogs had a chance late in the first half to get in the endzone but settled for a 22-yard Landon Byer field goal to take a 17-14 lead into halftime. Priceville opened the second half with another scoring drive as quarterback Jake England scored on a fouryard run to extend their lead to 24-14. The Bulldogs couldn’t hold onto the lead as Randolph scored on a 31-yard pass play late in the third and then on a 15-yard run late in the fourth to grab a 28-24 lead. Priceville had one final chance to retake the lead,
driving down to the Randolph 21-yard line. On a fourth down play that looked like the Bulldogs would retake the lead on an England scramble for a touchdown, instead, Priceville was flagged for a penalty, negating the score. On the next play, Randolph intercepted England’s pass that was intended for Riley Wagg to put an end to the Priceville threat and hold on for the four-point win. Clemons finished 195 yards rushing and two touchdowns on a career-high 42 carries. England added 82 yards and a score. The Bulldogs (4-6) will have this week off before hitting the road to open the 4A playoffs. Their opponent is still being determined as of this time, with three teams tied for first in the region.

The Patriots extended their lead to 13-6 on a CJ Watson touchdown run. The score was set up by Brewer recovering a Warriors fumble on the second-half opening kickoff. They held the lead until 3:35, remaining in the third when West Point scored a rushing touchdown to tie the game at 13-13.

By Russell Frye For the Enquirer Four country teams played in the AHSSA North Super Regional in Huntsville last week. All the teams won their first-round matches with only Brewer advancing to the state tournament by winning in the second round.
Brewer The Lady Patriots punched their ticket to the state tournament in Birmingham with a 3-1 win over Boaz and then a 3-0 win over Moody on the opening day of the 5A North Super Regional. Brewer lost a fiercely contested semifinal match with Alexandria as the Lady

Brewer will head to Birmingham as the North’s fourth seed and face the South’s top-seed Montgomery Academy. Priceville The Lady Bulldogs were looking for a return trip to the state tournament. Unfortunately, Priceville fell short in their 3-2 loss to Cherokee County. The Bulldogs led 2-1 after three sets but saw Cherokee County win the final two games to end the Lady Bulldogs season. Priceville advanced to the second round by defeating Hamilton 3-1 to open the
tournament.
