LUBBOCK – The postseason trail for the Hereford Whitefaces came to an end Thursday with a 38-28 loss to Decatur for the Region 1 championship in the quarterfinals of the UIL Class 4A Division 1 state football playoffs at Texas Tech’s Jones Stadium.

In seeing a three-game postseason win streak come to an end, the Herd finish the season at 9-4 with a suspended game.

In winning nine games in a season for the first time since 2010, the Whitefaces made their deepest postseason foray in the 15-year tenure of Don DeLozier as head coach.

“You have no idea how incredibly proud this fat guy is,” DeLozier said.

“All the teams who get here are good, and the guys in maroon are a good team. I am incredibly proud.

“We have no reason to drop our heads. We made the Elite Eight. I take my hat off to them. They worked to get the job done, held together and

Seth Dixon (21) heads for daylight on an 84-yard kickoff return to answer a fourth-quarter Eagle touchdown. Stopped at the 1, Dixon scored on the next play to provide the game’s final margin.

reached goals. I wanted to win so badly – not for me, but so they could say they were in the Final Four.”

Between the lines Thursday, it was a matter of too deep of a hole too early and having the tables turned that spelled the end to a season where the Whitefaces joined only three other teams in school history to made the fourth round.

The Eagles scored on their first two possessions and were up 14-0 less than nine minutes into the game when Gunner Ragsdale scored the first of his 3 touchdowns.

They failed to convert on the third time they had the ball as a 28-yard, Armando Benitez field goal hit the upright.

Two plays later the first of three Hereford interceptions set Decatur up at the Whiteface 5 after Layton Harris returned the pick 30 yards.

Ragsdale bulled in from the 2, and Benitez’s PAT made it 21-0 with 7:03 to go in the half.

Moving forward with plans for a new Deaf Smith County Jail are waiting for the state jail commission to relay a facility feasibility study to county officials.

County awaits report on jail

By John Carson BRAND Managing Editor

With a proclaimed hurdle of a school bond vote having been cleared last month, Deaf Smith County officials are still in a holding pattern concerning plans for a new jail.

Deaf Smith County Judge D.J. Wagner has made mention on several occasions during the past few months about the county’s need for a new jail, but held off on

taking significant steps forward in the process.

The reason, Wagner said, is a new jail will require a voter-approved bond measure – and subsequent tax increase – for be constructed.

In deference to an extreme facilities need facing Hereford Independent School District (HISD) and it floating a bond issue a third bond issue in three years in November, Wagner willingly put jail plans on

a back burner in hopes of voters passing the school bond.

“I don’t want to have to make voters decide between children and criminals,” Wagner said.

Although some preliminary work on a new jail has been done, solid plans for the facility were awaiting both November’s election and a jail facilities study.

“I love cooking, I love our church, and I’m happy to help where I can,” Bordayo said. “Making this a community-wide event transforms it into a festive occasion for coming together.

“Sharing a holiday meal with the community is important, presenting an opportunity to break bread together in the spirit of fellowship.

Being at table together is a form of communion, and that’s a good thing for the people of Hereford to share.”

As many as 500 people are expected for the inaugural community-wide meal.

cades, St. Anthony’s pastor the Rev. Tony Neusch said the church council decided to centralized the location and open the meal to the community as a way to “give back” after St. Anthony’s Church and School being “central to the community of Hereford.”

“We hope this event will grow in scope over the years,” Neusch added. “It’s unusual for a community the size of Hereford not to have a Thanksgiving or Christmas meal open to everyone.

“It’s an important tradition to establish.”

In addition to the sharing its annual holiday meal with the community, St. Anthony’s will be providing meals for at Deaf Smith County Jail.

Weather forecasts for Friday and Saturday created a mid-week scheduling alteration for one sport that threw a monkey wrench into the works for the weekend’s inaugural Hereford Classic boys basketball tournament.

The call for freezing temperatures, wind, icy conditions and snow accumulations caused officials to move the UIL Class 4A Division 1 quarterfinal game between Hereford and Decatur from Friday at 7 p.m. to Thursday at 6 p.m.

News of the change broke Tuesday at the start of a girls hoop tilt between Hereford and Dumas and had Whiteface coach C.J. Villegas scrambling to alter a tournament schedule that included eight teams playing five games each in a roundrobin format during a three-day span.

The tourney’s original schedule had taken into account the football game Friday with games running from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. to coincide with a student early dismissal to allow opportunity to attend the playoff game in Lubbock.

Tip of the Day How to prepare for an out-of-town breakdown

Road trips make for excellent getaways.

Whether you’re embarking on a weekend excursion or a lengthy vacation, driving yourself to your destination is a great way to travel, especially for families looking to save money.

Though no one wants to think about the possibility of a vehicle breakdown while out of town, such things do happen. How prepared drivers are can go a long way toward determining how affected they and their passengers will be if this happens. · Get a checkup before skipping town. It sounds simple, but many drivers may overlook the importance of vehicle checkups before departing on weekend getaways or longer trips. A full checkup (including an oil change if the recommended interval has passed or is approaching) can uncover any problems that might derail a trip. · Examine your options in regard to emergency roadside assistance. Insurance providers typically offer emergency roadside assistance to policy holders for a nominal fee, and memberships in clubs such as AAA also are inexpensive. That’s especially true when drivers compare the cost of extra coverage or AAA membership to the potential price tag of a tow truck and out-of-town repairs.

Drivers should note that out-of-town repairs may require costly overnight shipping of parts so travelers can get back on the road as quickly as possible. Roadside assistance offered through an insurance company or motor club may include tow trucks free of charge up to a certain number of miles, allowing travelers to get their cars back home without breaking the bank.

· Inspect tires, including your spare. Many a road trip has been derailed or thrown off schedule due to a flat tire or tires. Before departing, check the condition of your existing tires, including the spare, as well as the air pressure in each one. Firestone notes that many vehicle manufacturers recommend replacing tires at six years, regardless of tread wear. Tires that get heavy usage should be replaced even more frequently. To determine if tread wear is something to worry about, Firestone recommends the penny test, which involves placing a penny head first into several tread grooves across the tire. If the top of Abraham Lincoln’s head is always visible, then your tires are shallow and worn and need to be replaced. But if part of Lincoln’s head is always covered, your tires can probably withstand the trip. Worn tire treads can make it hard for tires to safely navigate roads in inclement weather, so don’t discount the importance of this simple step. · Bring along some basic tools. Pack some basic tools, such as screw drivers, wrenches, pliers, a trolley jack, a battery charger, and, of course, duct tape, which may help you temporarily solve some issues on your own. This is especially important for drivers who intend to visit remote locations where mobile phone networks may be inaccessible and the nearest tow truck might be far away.

Hone your tire-changing skills before hitting the road and make sure tools are still capable of performing the kind of basic maintenance that might help your vehicle safely return to civilization.

Vehicle breakdowns happen, even while on vacation. Some advance preparation can help drivers avert out-of-town disasters.

Fall on Texas farms, ranches

By Julie Tomascik Texas Farm Bureau

Crisp mornings.

Changing colors, and a buzz of urgency and excitement hang in the air.

It’s fall on the farm.

When farmers and ranchers are hurrying to harvest crops. Or get the seeds of next year in the ground.

It may seem early, but the first snow of the year is always seen in the fall. In the cotton fields where white bolls of fluff decorate the countryside. But, as this year has shown us, the real stuff can fall and make a mess of things.

Seas of gold and ma-

roon are mixed in between. Because corn and sorghum harvests are still rolling in the Panhandle.

Ranchers are busy stocking up on feed and hay, preparing for the needs of hungry livestock during the long winter ahead.

All the while anticipation builds. For a new year. A new crop. And new possibilities.

Because those seeds going into the ground right now carry the hopes and dreams of farm and ranch families.

They’re a livelihood. A passion and the roots of the state’s food, fuel and fiber production.

With fall, comes shorter days. And a chore list that remains the same— long and tiring.

But that doesn’t mean there isn’t time for fun.

Farmers cut mazes into cornfields. To provide a fright for those who dare to get lost in the stalks. There are pumpkin patches to visit. Fires to sit around. And colorful sunsets paint a new picture every evening.

Fall is wonderfully chaotic. Suspenseful. A time for family and agriculture because the two work in harmony.

As certain as summer leads to fall, agriculture will remain a staple for all.

Saturday Dec 8th, we are having “Santa at the Mall” from 2-6pm! Despite the weather warnings, the show is still on!

Santa will be there to take pictures with the kids, free of charge, BYO camera.

We have around 25+ vendors setting up booths selling everything from homemade crafts to candy bouquets, and several community organizations providing informations, giving out candy and so on. Enjoy hot chocolate while listening to the high school band perform, as well as church singers, and watch taekwondo & gymnastic demonstrations! It’ll be fun for the whole family!

We welcome everyone and it’s free entry! Please join us to support our community on this otherwise boring and cold day!

Whitefaces end skid

By John Carson BRAND Managing Editor

Herd’s Christian Mendez (6) looks for running room after hauling one of his team-high 6 receptions in Thursday’s playoff loss to Decatur.

HISD photo by Bryan Hedrick

HERD: FROM PAGE 1

Undaunted, the Whitefaces used a pair of big plays on their next two possessions to get back into the game.

Ray Ponce found a seam on a flanker screen from Sebastian Grajeda and ran away from defenders for a 78-yard score to trim it to 21-7 just 58 seconds later.

Getting a stop, the Herd needed just three plays to cut into the deficit more.

On third-and-6, Grajeda found tight end Andrew Lucio all alone on the seam for a 46yard score. The catch was Lucio’s first of the season and pulled the Herd within 21-14 at the half.

The Eagles pulled pages from the Whiteface playbook in the second half as they played ball control and stout defense to keep Herd comeback hopes at bay.

They used 6:07 of the third quarter to move 68 yards in 12 plays before Benitez connected on a 30-yard field goal.

Grajeda’s second interception of the night put Decatur at midfield three plays later.

Eagle QB Roman Fuller found Beau Bedford running by himself on a post pattern for a walk-in touchdown to push the lead to 31-14 with 11:52 remaining.

The Herd tried to rally and responded with nine-play drive to make it 31-21 on a Seth Dixon run with 9:24 left.

Forcing a punt, the Whitefaces were back in business, but Lindsey Phipps picked off Grajeda to end the threat.

Three plays later, Ragsdale scored again from the 3 to summarily seal it, 38-21.

The Herd was still kicking when Dixon returned the ensuing kickoff 84 yards and went in standing a play later to provide the final margin with 4:16 left.

Fuller went 17-of-35 for 263 yards with a touchdown and interception to lead the Eagles 413-yard offensive night.

In addition to his 3 TDs, Ragsdale finished with 69 yards on 22 carries, while A.J. Martinez added 69 yards on 16 carries with a score.

For the first time this season when Dixon was playing, the Whiteface rushing attack was shut down.

Coming into the game with 2,075 yards for the season, Dixon finished with a season-low 49 yards on 16 carries and scored secondhalf touchdowns on runs of 3 and 1 yards.

However, the Herd only managed 32 total rushing yards for the game as the only other ballcarrier – Grajeda – was sacked three times and ended with 5 carries for minus-17 yards.

Despite throwing a season-high 3 picks, Grajeda hit 15-of-23 passes for 225 yards,

including scoring tosses of 78 and 18 yards.

Christian Mendez caught 6 passes for 34 yards, while Ponce had 5 receptions for 92 yards.

Although ending the game with 257 total yards, the Whitefaces could muster only 68 yards on five second-possessions while turning the ball over twice. “[Decatur] is a good team and was able to get up quick,” DeLozier said. “We fought back, rallied and had a chance to do some things. But, we got in a hole, had trouble banging our running game and turned the ball over some.

“Still, I am eternally grateful to have been the coach of this team for this time.”

Surviving an early onslaught, the Hereford Whitefaces crawled out of a hole Tuesday to knock off visiting Dumas, 59-53, in non-district hardwood play.

Snapping a five-game losing streak, the Herd moved to 2-5 on the young season after the win.

“We picked it up after the first, especially in the third quarter,” Hereford coach C.J. Villegas said. “We got it going. We just didn’t have any energy in the first quarter.

“You have to have energy to be successful. I’m glad the kids figured that out in this one.”

The Demons raced to an 18-9 lead on first-quarter scoring that included totals of three as they connected on five 3-pointers and converted a traditional threepoint play.

Working the ball inside, the Whitefaces worked their way back.

Tanner Frische and Erik Baca scored 5 points each on the baseline to start the second quarter and fuel a 13-2 run that saw the Whitefaces take their first Tanner Frische (5) goes up for two of his game-high 21 points lead at 22-20 on a Frische Tuesday as the Whitefaces snapped a five-game losing BRAND/John Carson put-back with 2:17 left in streak.

Lady Herd sets tone early

By John Carson BRAND Managing Editor

It was not gracious hosts the Hereford Lady Whitefaces played Tuesday when they smacked visiting Dumas, 68-49, in nondistrict basketball action.

With their second win in a row after losing four straight, the Lady Herd improved to 6-6 on the season.

Taking control early, the Lady Whitefaces jumped out to a 12-2 lead that was never threatened.

Andrea Valenzuela scored 6 of her 8 points to spark a 16-4 spurt that stretched the Lady Herd lead 33-14 with 2:32 left in the half.

The Demonettes cut into the deficit before trailing 36-24 at intermission.

The Lady Whitefaces doused any hopes of comeback and slammed the door shut to open the second half.

After the Demonettes made it 36-26 to begin the third, Lori Arias scored seven straight points – started by a 3-pointer – and Taytum Stow added 6 as the Lady Whitefaces ran away.

Nayeli Acosta’s bucket with 3:29 left in the third gave the Lady Herd their biggest lead of the night at 23 points, 54-31.

With 7 points in the first quarter and 6 in the third, Stow finished with 20 to take game scoring honors.

Arias – who knocked down three from behind the arc – added 15 points with 10 coming in the second quarter.

Acosta and Haleigh Barba chipped in 9 points each as all but two of the Lady Whitefaces who played scored.

The Lady Whitefaces were back on the tournament trail this weekend when they opened play Thursday in a tournament at Dimmitt. The three-day event closes Saturday.

They are back home Tuesday to host Frenship.
